The Boston College Eagles has a long and vaunted college football history. Boston College's first football team took the field in 1892. This makes it one of the oldest college football teams in the country. The team adopted the " "Eagles" " nickname in 1920. The 1920 team was undefeated at 8-0, and it won its first-ever Eastern Championship. Throughout the years, the Boston College Eagles has fielded many highly entertaining and successful teams. The 1940 team was perhaps the best in the school's history. It was a favorite of sportswriter Grantland Rice. During the 1980s, Doug Flutie quarterbacked the team to an exciting, nationally televised win over the Miami Hurricanes. It put the Eagles back on the national landscape in a big way. In terms of moving on to the NFL, the 2018 Eagles was the most successful in BC history. Four players were drafted, and many others signed as free agents. When you're ready to experience the action for yourself, StubHub is your source for Boston College Eagles tickets.
Where do the Boston College Eagles play?
The Boston College Eagles schedule of home games is played at Alumni Stadium, which holds 44,500 people. It's located on the Boston College campus. In the past, the Eagles also played at Alumni Field. Founded in 1915, Alumni Field was also known as the dust bowl.
What conference do the Eagles play in?
Boston College plays in the Atlantic Coast Conference. It is one of 15 teams in the conference. Until 2004, it was a part of the Big East.
Who is Boston College's head coach?
Eagles football is coached by Steve Addazio. Addazio is a former college football player who started at Central Connecticut from 1978 to 1981. Addazio coached at Cheshire High School in Connecticut in the late 1980s and early 1990s. By the 2000s, he was working as a position coach at a number of NCAA schools. In 2010, Addazio accepted the head coaching position at Temple University. He has been at Boston College since 2013, posting a record of 38 wins and 38 losses.
Has the Boston College Eagles ever won a national title?
The question of national titles can get confusing in college football. In 1940, the Eagles defeated Tennessee at the Sugar Bowl. The school claims this as a national championship. However, college football publications in 1940 split the championship between three teams: Minnesota, Stanford and Tennessee.
Does the Eagles have any historical rivalries?
The Eagles has several rivals. Virginia Tech is one of its newest and most exciting rivalries as the teams play every year. They first faced off in 1993, and currently, Virginia Tech has won 18 of the matches with BC taking eight. Boston College also has an in-state rivalry with UMass that dates back to the first game in 1899. Currently, the Eagles has an impressive win streak against UMass that goes back to 1979.

The Oglethorpe County sheriff who hired a recently fired Athens cop said he knows "he will be a great asset to our county" in a Facebook post.
Sheriff David Gabriel's post said he has known Taylor Saulters since he was a baby. Saulters, who was fired Saturday from the Athens-Clarke County Police Department for allegedly hitting a fleeing suspect with his patrol car, was hired by Gabriel on Monday.
"I have no reservations about Dep. Saulters serving this community," Gabriel said later in his post. He then encouraged Oglethorpe County citizens who have concerns to contact him directly.
Gabriel did not respond to a phone message left by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution requesting comment.
Athens police Chief Scott Freeman fired Saulters before an internal investigation into the incident was finished, Channel 2 Action News reported. A separate investigation by the GBI is ongoing.
The Athens-Clarke County Police Department declined to comment to The AJC about Saulters' new job.
"There's nothing about this that even smells right," Saulters' attorney, Philip Holloway, told Channel 2.
Holloway added that Freeman spoke with Saulters' father, who is the captain of the investigative division for the department, Channel 2 reported.
Holloway called Freeman's decision a "rush to judgment," but the Athens Anti-Discrimination Movement released a statement Tuesday praising the termination.
The suspect he hit, Timmy Patmon, was on probation and had felony warrants out for his arrest. He has been charged with obstruction of an officer, and his bond was set at $1,500.

When I opened my glove box it just fell open and dangled forward. Time to replace those gasshocks !
There are two in the dash. One is an absorber to make the dash open gently downwards. The other one is a gasshock holding the compartment in the back or all the way forward in the direction of the driver.
If you're just replacing the absorber you can do this with the compartment in your car. For the shock you have to remove the entire box.
The absorber just clips off and the new one just clips on.
When you're replacing the shock you have to take out the compartment.
Remove the black plastic cover on the hinge (right rear side).
Remove the torch charger socket and losen the wires.
The frontpart is held by the absorber and a strap. Uncip these.
Removing the gasshock is quite easy since it probably lost most of the presure. You can just pry it off with a screwdriver. To replace the shock I first fited the top, then using a screwdriver I levered the bottom into place using the nut on the supportbar.
Then you're allready to replace the box !

Q: Scala Play 2: action composition and BodyParser I'm using action composition for authentication and to avoid passing common parameters in each action. My question is how can I combine it the BodyParser parse.json, like in the method below?
def setUser() = Action(parse.json) {
  implicit request =>
    val id = (request.body \ "id").as[String]
    val username = (request.body \ "username").as[String]
    val previousURI = request.session.get("previousURI") match {
      case Some(x) => x
      case None => "/"
    }
    Ok(previousURI).withSession(
      "id" -> id,
      "username" -> username
    )
}

The controller that uses the above method uses the 'Auth' trait:
case class User(id: Option[String], username: Option[String])

case class Context(user: User, request: Request[AnyContent])
  extends WrappedRequest(request)

trait Auth {

  def CheckLogin(f: Context => Result) = {

    Action { request =>
      request.session.get("username").map { token =>
        // username? yes continue...
        val id = request.session.get("id")
        val username = request.session.get("username")
        f(Context(new User(id, username), request))
      }.getOrElse {
        // no redirect to login
        Results.Redirect(routes.Application.login).withSession(
          "previousURI" -> request.uri
        )
      }

    }

  }

}

If I try:
def myMethod() = CheckLogin(parse.json) { ...
I get:
type mismatch; found : play.api.mvc.BodyParser[play.api.libs.json.JsValue] required: controllers.Context => play.api.mvc.Result

thanks!

A: Answering my own question, still not sure if this is the most elegant but it works:
def CheckLogin(bp: BodyParser[AnyContent] = parse.anyContent)(f: Context => Result) = {
    Action(bp) { request =>
    // ...

CheckLogin now has a BodyParser that defaults to parse.anyContent so it can accept other BodyParsers as well like parse.json

No, sites that sell kamas and/or items are not legal.
By buying items over the internet, you risk being scammed into purchasing goods that will never be delivered. You also risk having your Ankama account stolen.
Plain and simple, you risk having all of your accounts definitively banned.
How do I purchase items or kamas legally?
Ankama offers a very advantageous way to buy and exchange with Ogrines. These offer players a lot of flexibility and allow you to buy subscriptions and also in-game objects, kamas, or other services.
To buy Ogrines, you just need to go to the official DOFUS site.

A version of DB5 that supports live updating of values from the plist while running the app on the simulator. Now you can make dozens of tweaks to your app in a matter of minutes!

See the demo app for an example:

1. Run the demo app
2. Change a value in the plist, and save it
3. Watch the app change before your eyes!

Note that this will not work on device.

To add it to your app:

1. Restructure your app delegate (or wherever you load VSThemes in your app) so that you can "refresh" your UI.
2. From this method, call `[themeLoader loadThemes];`
3. Register for file changes by setting the themeReloadedCallback block on themeLoader and have it refresh your UI.
4. Add a `Run Script` build step to your target:
    . $SRCROOT/../Source/VSSymlinkThemesScript.sh
See the demo app for an example, just look at the App Delegate

How it works:
After your app builds, the build script deletes your DB5.plist, and replaces it with a symlink to the source copy. On the simulator, this allows the app to load the updated file without rebuilding.

The code adds the additional magic of watching the file for changes. If the file changes, the callback gets called, which typically will cause your app to refresh.

For more advanced usage, you could have this callback fire an NSNotification, so that individual View Controllers could reload themselves, rather than reloading the root view controller. This helps when working on a more complex app, as the feedback loop between change and result will be reduced to nearly zero.

## Other Neat Things

* A `CGRect`, `CGSize`, or a `CGPoint` can be defined using a string with comma syntax (ex. `0,0,30,20`)
* `UIColor` can be written in RGB and RGBA using commas, in 255 format (ex. `255,0,0`)
* `UIColor` has an optional alpha component when written in hex

# Original README
# DB5

by [Q Branch](http://qbranch.co/)

## App Configuration via Plist

By storing colors, fonts, numbers, booleans, and so on in a plist, we were able to iterate quickly on our app [Vesper](http://vesperapp.co/).

Our designers could easily make changes without having to dive into the code or ask engineering to spend time nudging pixels and changing values.

There is nothing magical about the code or the system: it's some simple code plus a few conventions.

### How it works

See the demo app. You include two classes — `VSThemeLoader` and `VSTheme` — and DB5.plist. The plist is where you set values.

At startup you load the file via `VSThemeLoader`, then access values via methods in `VSTheme`.

#### VSTheme methods

Most of the methods are straightforward. `-[VSTheme boolForKey:]` returns a BOOL, and so on.

Some of the methods require multiple values in the plist file. For instance, `-[VSTheme fontForKey:]` expects the font name as `keyName` and the size as `keyNameSize`. See VSTheme.h for more information about these multiple-key values.

#### Inheritance

Though we haven't used this capability in Vesper, we made it so that you can have multiple themes. Every theme inherits from the Default theme.

If you ask for a value from a theme other than Default, and that value is not specified in that theme, it falls back to Default to get that value.

### Demo app

The demo app is straightforward and small. `DB5AppDelegate` loads the themes. `DB5ViewController` shows some example use.

Also, see the Examples folder for the DB5.plist from Vesper.

Privatization Follies
A new wave of privatization is getting under way in Russia. Property that until now had been in the hands of the state is being put up for sale. The list of companies that the government plans to sell in full or in part is impressive. This year, state holdings in Sovcomflot and Sberbank are slated to be sold. Sovcomflot owns 132 vessels and is among the five largest ocean-going tanker operations in the world. Sberbank is one of the leading financial companies in all of Eastern Europe.
State holdings in RusHydro, the Federal Grid Company and VTB are also being prepared for sale in 2012. The remaining major state holdings will be sold in 2013, including another stake in VTB and shares in Rosneft, Russian Agricultural Bank, Rosagroleasing and Russian Railways.
When asked why this round of privatization is needed in the first place, government officials mumble something unintelligible about the poor investment climate and complain about the lack of money in the budget. Nothing more is asked of these officials. And liberal economists are always so convinced that such assets are best held in private rather than government hands that they demand no proof or justification for the sales.
But the few studies that have been done on this subject reveal a far more complex picture. Polish economist Tadeusz Kowalik analyzed the results of privatization in Britain under Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and found that the process had no impact whatsoever on the overall effectiveness of those companies. True, the performance of some companies improved, but for others it worsened or stayed the same. On average, no radical changes took place. In fact, the privatization process was intended for and achieved a very different purpose — the redistribution of power and property, the undermining of the labor movement and trade unions, the elimination of the welfare state and the weakening of the government's ability to influence the economy.
Russia is pursuing exactly the same goal but has stated it even more explicitly. The investment climate will probably worsen as a result of the privatization deals due to the inevitable corruption involved. At the same time, the "investment climate" that economists love to analyze has about as much significance during an economic crisis as questions of soil quality have during an earthquake. Whatever the "climate" might be, investors only open new businesses when there is demand for their products. And where will increased demand come from if the economy and the people cannot find means for development?
It also seems unlikely that the authors of the privatization plan will manage to augment state coffers as promised. They estimate that privatization sales will generate about 1 trillion rubles ($35.3 billion) of income. That sounds like a lot. But is it really so much when spread out over three years? The main problem is that as each company is sold, the government loses that much more long-term income to support the budget. And if government officials can't effectively manage the money already entrusted to their care, on what basis can we believe that they will spend this windfall in the public's best interests?
And that's not all. Once the privatization revenues disappear like all the money before it did, how will the state replenish its coffers? Unload even more shares? What will the government do once all the state's assets are gone? Obviously, not this administration but a subsequent one will be saddled trying to solve that riddle.
Russian society might never obtain any benefit from the current round of privatizations, but that doesn't mean that nobody will profit. As economist Maxim Kozyrev so aptly put it: Those who distributed state assets during the first wave of privatization will be the recipients this time around. That's good news for Russian officials who dream of joining the middle class. This round of privatization will help those who failed to grab a piece of the pie 20 years ago to fulfill their dreams now.

The property was inscribed on the List of World Heritage in Danger due to the presence of unauthorized settlements within its boundaries, illegal logging and the threat from an advancing agricultural frontier. To the west and south, the property is bordered by new settlements established by small scale farmers and ranchers looking for lands, and to the east by indigenous communities. The northern part of the property borders on the Caribbean and harbours several small indigenous settlements, though an increasing number of colonists are arriving here as well. The absence of orderly land allocation structures has resulted in a thriving informal land market, further exacerbating deforestation. Important efforts have been made to establish a formal cadastre, with the support of German development assistance and significant progress has been made. Vigorous presence of the military on the property boundaries, along with the passing of clear laws removing loopholes that had been used to legalize timber obtained from the property have been closed. These developments were the basis for the removal of the property from the List of World Heritage in Danger in 2007.
The World Heritage Centre sent a letter communicating Decision 32 COM 7B.38 to the State Party on 21 August, 2008 along with a follow-up letter on 1 February 2009. Further email and telephone communications took place in February and March 2009 in an effort to communicate the urgency of responding to the World Heritage Committee's request.
No report has been received from the State Party.
b) Important illegal seasonal commercial fisheries in the rivers and iii) hunting of mammals such as tapir, peccary and paca.
A further report from Global Witness entitled "Illegal Logging in the Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve" raises further concerns over the integrity of the property. In the absence of the state of conservation report from the State Party, these field reports raise serious issues over the implementation of the 2006 monitoring mission recommendations.
4. Reiterates its request to the State Party to submit to the World Heritage Centre, by 1 February 2010, a report on further progress achieved in the implementation of the recommendations made by the 2006 monitoring mission, including a response to the report on illegal logging by Global Witness, for examination by the World Heritage Committee at its 34th session in 2010, with a view to consider the inscription of the property on the List of World Heritage in Danger.

As students throughout the nation settle into another school year, it's time to have a serious discussion about what it takes to develop and sustain great teachers.
While high-quality professional learning is critical to meeting constantly evolving challenges, an overwhelming majority of school systems know very little about what educators learn through professional development, how effectively they use what they learn, and to what extent students benefit. This lack of accountability must end.
If you listen carefully to the educators responsible for conceiving, planning, organizing, and implementing professional development, most of what you hear focuses on process, including process that masquerades as content.
Conversations continue to be dominated by references to speakers, consultants, books, videos, webinars, workshops, courses, conferences, and presentations. But if professional development is as important as many believe it is, education leaders must turn their attention to outcomes.
Many educators assume participation in professional development equals results, and many states mandate such work for educators to renew their certification or advance on the pay scale.
These requirements are based on a state's belief that the educators' performances will improve simply because they participate in the in the programs. But most states make no effort to determine the effects of the mandated professional development. Some educators may benefit, but many probably do not. No one knows.
Unfortunately, the misuse of professional development is so widespread that educators accept it as the norm. School systems routinely use valuable professional-development days to disseminate information such as updates on new laws or regulations or instructions on administering standardized tests.
Another misuse occurs when some superintendents and their deputies use professional development as a one-size-fits-all intervention to address pervasive instructional inadequacies among many teachers in multiple schools.
In such cases, the professional development assumes teachers are blank slates with little or no experience who work with a homogeneous student body. It is not surprising that many, either consciously or unconsciously, resist such initiatives or halfheartedly go through the motions of implementation.
When it comes to administering professional development, inefficient program management and lackluster interest hinder teachers seeking to translate their learning into effective classroom practice. The system essentially stops paying attention beyond making sure teachers consume the requisite number of professional-learning hours.
Instead of checking a box, the primary role of professional learning must be to raise the performance levels of teachers and their students. All of a school system's functions, including professional development, should align to improve teacher effectiveness and student learning. Too often, though, teachers have no stake in or commitment to their professional development, resulting in little or no meaningful impact for them or their students.
To increase the effectiveness of professional development and of the teachers it serves, change is necessary. It is not a matter of getting more money or days for professional development, though both would be helpful. Rather, the change required is to make professional development responsive to the objective learning needs of teachers and their students, needs supported by student- or teacher-performance data.
Change can begin if educators honestly struggle with two questions when they conceive and organize professional development: Will the learning experience increase the productivity of those who engage in it, and, how will we know?
An overwhelming majority of school systems know very little about what educators learn through professional development, how effectively they use what they learn, and to what extent students benefit.
Meaningful change means professional development driven by teachers' understanding of their students' learning challenges. Once this understanding is gained, teachers must commit to learning whatever is necessary to address these challenges and to continually refine their skills to increase their students' performance.
This change is not possible without new expectations and behaviors from the three parties responsible for professional development: administrators who authorize it, educators who organize it, and teachers who engage in it.
Administrators must create and support an operational culture in which continuous professional development for the purpose of increasing student learning is integral to each teacher's work.
Educators responsible for organizing professional development must create and facilitate learning experiences that teachers value, and that cause teachers to develop and apply new knowledge, skills, and behaviors that will benefit their students.
Teachers must embrace a professional ethic whereby they will actively pursue, engage in, and use learning experiences that will enable them to address their students' learning needs more effectively.
Where states and school systems embrace and promote these changes, professional development will demonstrate its power to increase teacher effectiveness and student learning.

Formula 1 needless to say, is such a grand event on which every automaker especially sports carmaker would relish to cash upon. On 27th October, UK based sports car manufacturer Caterham Cars whizzed into the Indian auto industry with their two models namely 'Caterham 7' and 'Caterham SP/300R'. These two build-to-order models will be offered in a price bracket of INR 28 Lakhs to INR 90 Lakhs. Initially the two models will go on sale in New Delhi in the month of March 2012.
The Britain based Caterham Cars; a renowned motorsports brand name in UK, is coming to India in association with Burman brothers; the promoters of FMCG giant Dabur in the country, who will be entitled to take care of the firm's business in India.
As per Mr. Ansar Ali – Managing Director at Caterham Cars, a perfect platform is set for an introduction of a motorsports company in India, as the nation is hosting its first ever motorsport event; Formula One. The brand will surely prove to be an affordable choice to the motorsports passionate people in India, he added.
Mohit Burman and Gaurav Burman along with a British resident, Matt Cummings; who will be the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for operations in Caterham Cars India, seem confident on gathering success in India. The company has considered Greater Noida as their assembly unit and also intends to launch its famous motorsports academy in India to create awareness of the brand.
The company rates the prospering auto sectors in India and China as the most favorable for its products in the coming years. An annual sale of 10,000 units is the target of Caterham Cars India in the upcoming five to seven years. To provide a glimpse of car to the spectators present at the F1 event, prototype version of Caterham SP/300R sports racing car will be showcased.
In India premium luxury brands like Mercedes Benz, Audi and BMW contend with Caterham Cars of United Kingdom.
The car race was awesome but bit disappointed as India won't get the winning price. Waiting for the launching of two new models in 2012.


Front Barnett Associates Llc is an investment advisor that manages 745.3 MM dollars in regulatory AUM and has 9 employees, of which 5 perform investment advisory functions.
The manager's has disclosed holdings from 03/31/01 to 12/31/18. The fund's latest filing disclosed 548MM in positions, representing 74% of the manager's regulatory AUM.
Although Front Barnett employs a broad diversification strategy, there may be times when one industry, sector, or company is more heavily weighted than others. In such cases, there is the possibility that negative performance of the heavily weighted security will have a greater impact on the overall performance of the portfolio. Clients who have broadly diversified portfolios, as a general rule, incur less volatility and therefore less fluctuation in portfolio value than those who have concentrated holdings. Concentrated holdings may offer the potential for higher gain, but also offer the potential for significant loss.

Help tips in Windows 8.1 were designed to show users how to access the various hidden menus introduced in Windows 8 that are accessed by swiping from the edges of the screen. While these tips can be helpful for new Windows 8 users, they can be very annoying for others and in some cases, very difficult to dismiss.
I use a number of virtual machines to research and test tweaks that I write about. With VMware based virtualization products, I noticed that by default they simulate touch hardware on non-touch devices. This can actually be helpful when researching some tweaks, but it makes it impossible to make the help tips go away. They remain on screen covering important content until I switch back to the desktop.
Thankfully there is an easy way to disable these help tips for situations where they are not needed.
Click on the Start Button and type in gpedit.msc and hit Enter.
Navigate through Computer Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components and finally Edge UI.
Right click on Disable help tips and select Edit.
Select Enabled and click OK and help tips are now disabled.
Navigate through HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE, Policies, Microsoft and Windows.
Next we will need to create a new key called EdgeUI if one does not already exist. Right click on the Windows key and select New and then Key. Name the new key EdgeUI and hit Enter.
Right click on the EdgeUI key and select New and then DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name the new DWORD DisableHelpSticker.
Right click on the new DisableHelpSticker DWORD and select Modify. Set the value to 1 and hit OK.


Why are you leaving the big city? Some people may find your decision a bit odd especially if they learn that you are going to live in a small town. Life is not just about being in the busy big city. For years you have managed to cope with the life of the city but this year, everything is different. You no longer want to confine yourself from the four corners of your apartment. So, it is time for you to break your usual routine. Though at first you fill find it hard to adjust as you are going to live a simple life in small town, but sooner or later you will cope well. Then, learn to appreciate things. In the big city, you don't have to be sentimental because you are too busy competing and aiming for promotions whatsoever. But, life is different in the small town. You wake up in the morning and look at the window to see birds singing for you. Isn't it so amazing? And the best shot you will have in the small city is a healthy and normal life. In small town pollution is minimal as opposed to the city. And you will never get tired of breathing the fresh air.

The sharing of clinical trial data offers researchers opportunities for validating key findings and avoiding the cost of duplicative studies, while unleashing innovations that can culminate in life-saving care. Advances in technical infrastructure mean that biomedical researchers now have more data at their fingertips than ever before, but challenges remain. In their post on Health Affairs Blog, Kim McCleary and Kristin Schneeman name the challenge of ensuring that data sharing platforms are financially and economically sustainable one of the medical research and development issues to watch in 2018.
Whether drawing on established financial models or pioneering innovative new structures, data sharing platforms must be ready to face the challenge of sustainability if they seek to maximize their full potential. Vivli is committed to providing a global platform for data sharing grounded in financial sustainability so that researchers can reap the benefits of our innovative approach for years to come.

"I've been using the Round Timer app on my iPhone for about as long as I've had my Iphone... If you're someone that's training for rounds, doing circuit work, etc. this app is worth your 99 cents. With the level of customization you get, the app is competitive with the way more expensive round timer devices that can cost upwards of $10-100."
"I found a GREAT interval timer app in the iTunes store for 99 cents!!! It's called Round Timer and it works like a dream!!!"
"Its a really useful applications. Beats carrying around that big round timer from the old days."
The Round Timer was the first round/sparring/boxing timer available in the AppStore and, as a result, the most refined and stable. Don't be fooled by knock-offs (other developers copying our interface and layout).
The Round Timer is a convenient round/boxing/sparring timer for your iPhone/iPod touch, now compatible with iOS 8. The Round Timer is a fully functional round/sparring timer that allows you to customize the length of the rounds, warning bell and resting period. Each of these intervals can be configured separately up to an hour. It will run in the background even if you switch to another App.
With the sound themes, you can choose which alarm sounds to use: boxing/MMA, a relaxing Zen theme, and a few others. Don't like any of the dozens of preinstalled sounds? Don't worry! You can record your own sounds.
Working out to music is not a problem. Start your music playing in the iPod app, then start RoundTimer. The sounds will play over top of your music without interrupting it.
Please feel free to e-mail [email protected] to suggest new sound themes!

What Is a Farm Labor Contractor Bond?
In many states, farm labor contractors need to provide a farm labor contractor bond in order to operate legally. The bond is often a prerequisite for receiving a farm labor contractor license from your state licensing authorities.
The purpose of farm labor contractor bonds is to protect the state, and the clients of contractors, from potential unlawful actions. For contractors, getting bonded is also a sign that you're reliable, and safe to do business with.
Just like other surety bonds, the farm labor contractor bond is a contractual agreement between three entities. Your farm labor contractor business is the principal that needs to get bonded. The licensing authority that requires the bond is the obligee. Finally, the surety is the bond underwriter that provides backing for you.
Who needs to obtain a farm labor contractor bond?
How much does a farm labor contractor bond cost?
Can I get a farm labor contractor bond with bad credit?
How do I get my farm labor contractor bond?
How are bond claims handled for farm labor contractors?
In numerous states, getting a farm labor contractor license requires posting a bond. This prerequisite is put in place to safeguard the interests of contractors' clients, which are often migratory agricultural workers. A farm labor contractor company, in practice, is an intermediary for job seekers and employers in the field of farm labor. The bond's role is to ensure that contractors will abide by relevant rules when providing their services.
Before you start your licensing process, make sure to check the exact bonding criteria you need to meet to get your state license.
The bonding amounts are different from state to state. This means that your bond cost will depend on your location, as it depends on the required bond amount. Your bond price is also affected by your personal credit score and business finances.
While the bond amount can be considerable in some places, your bond premium is only a percentage of it. The typical bonding rates are between 1% and 4% of the bond amount, if you qualify for the standard bonding market. For example, for a $25,000 bond, you are likely to pay a premium of $250 to $1,000.
When you apply for a bond with your surety, it examines a number of financial indicators to assess your application. The most important factor is your personal credit score, as well as at your personal and business financials and professional knowhow. Your bond price is then determined on the basis of the level of risk.
You can learn more about the way your farm labor contractor bond price is set by consulting our surety bond cost page.
Here at Lance Surety Bonds, we have extensive experience with bonding farm labor contractors. We know that getting bonded with bad credit can be an uphill battle. That's why we offer our Bad Credit Surety Bonds program. Our goal is to help contractors with low credit scores, tax liens, bankruptcies, or civil judgements get bonded and stay in business.
You can expect bad credit bonding premiums in the range of 5% to 10%. While the cost is slightly higher, you can be sure you are getting a top rate with us. We have close connections with numerous A-rated, T-listed surety companies, which means we can select the best matching bonding option for you.
You can apply online today for a free bond quote. Once you've included all paperwork in the application form, we will deliver your exact bond price in no time.
Our How to Get Bonded page is an excellent resource on bonding in case you need further information.
For any questions about the process or your application, just call us at (877) 514-5146. Our bonding experts are here to help.
Before you start your bonding process, it's important to understand how farm labor contractor bonds work. Unlike insurance for your company, they are a safety net for your customers. Your bond guarantees that they will be protected and reimbursed in case you do not abide by applicable laws.
In case you deviate from your obligations under the bond, an affected party can file a claim on it. If it's proven, you will be liable to compensate the claimant up to the penal sum of the bond.
That's why bond claims are a serious financial and reputational burden, and should always be avoided. After a claim, it can also be quite difficult to get bonded again.

Q: How to show real time input using javascript in input tag? How can I make this script run by replacing textarea tag with input tag? I used input tag in my page and wanna add this code but this code used textarea. if I change textarea to input the code doesn't work.

function setFontText(text) {
  document.getElementById("Courier_new").innerHTML = text;
  document.getElementById("Arial_Black").innerHTML = text;
}
<textarea id="textField0" autocomplete="off" style="font-family:'Alex Brush';" onkeyup="javascript:setFontText(this.value);" rows="2" name="textField0"></textarea> Multiple text area:

<textarea id="Courier_new" class="fontTextArea2" style="font-family:Courier;" autocomplete="off" name="Courier new"></textarea>

<textarea id="Arial_Black" class="fontTextArea2" style="font-family:Arial; " autocomplete="off" name="Arial Black"></textarea>

A:     Try this:-
function setFontText(text) {
  document.getElementById("Courier_new").value = text;
  document.getElementById("Arial_Black").value = text;
}

Or,
Using  document.getElementsByClassName
The method .getElementsByClassName() returns an array-like object of elements.so you have to access first element (if there is any).
var elements = document.getElementsByClassName("anyclass);
var value = elements[0].value;

alert(value); // 1

or,
you could also use the .querySelector() method:
var value = document.querySelector('.anyclass').value;
alert(value); // 1

A: Update:
Register the function:
function setFontText(text) {
  document.getElementById("Courier_new").innerHTML = text;
  document.getElementById("Arial_Black").innerHTML = text;
}

Call the function with a string as parameter.
setFontText("TEXT");

it works fine with textarea as well. Syntax would be like this.
Here for the input field in stackoverflow:
var x = document.getElementById("wmd-input")
x.innerText = "TEXTFIELDINPUT"
or
x.innerHTML = "TEXTFIELDINPUT"*

Lot 27 of 1129: Hoover, Herbert -- His Initialed Book Sketch and Personally-worn Silk Necktie
Lot closed - Winning bid:$550 (5 bids)
Hoover, Herbert -- His Initialed Book Sketch and Personally-worn Silk Necktie (1874-1964) 31st President of the United States (1929-33). Among his last visitors, just prior to his death on the 31st floor of the Waldorf Astor Hotel, on Oct. 20, 1964, were his longtime friends Lewis and Alice Strauss. Just one year prior, Hoover published his final book titled Fishing for Fun - And to Wash Your Soul, an 86-page hardback filled with Bert Hoover's wit and wisdom about his passion for angling. He designated one book as his working copy and, just inside the front-end page, penciled and initialed a sketch of a fisherman's wicket basket bag lying against breezy, tall grass, and two nice-sized fish near a resting rod and reel. Not long after his demise, Hoover's devoted personal secretary, Bunny Miller, presented Lewis and Alice with two items offered herewith: the book, and a silk maroon necktie Hoover frequently wore during his fishing expeditions. "The boss wanted the two of you to have these" she told them. The book is in fine condition, as is the necktie, manufactured by F.R. Tripler in New York, all silk. A nice remembrance of the greatest humanitarian to serve as president. Estimated Value $600 - 600

Wish your home had more space but not looking to spend six figures to make it happen? Look up instead of out. Attics provide the prime opportunity for expansion. In fact, it's pretty common for people to figure out how to turn their attics into living spaces when they want a more budget-friendly space-gaining option — with a sizeable return on investment. If you're ready to convert yours from a storage area to a bedroom, home office or other living space, here's what you need to first take into consideration.
1. Consider your area's building codes and regulations.
Did you know a room has to have a certain amount of floor space? Ceiling height? Access to the outside? From the beginning of the project to the end, building codes and regulations will rule every decision that is made when converting an attic to a room. Otherwise, you're wasting your time because the space won't be safe, usable or durable. Get in touch with a local building inspector to get a list of all of the applicable codes and required permits and inspections to ensure your attic fits the bill.
2. Think creatively about how to get the most out of the shape of your space.
Got odd room angles? Keep those in mind when designing your space. Sure, an A-frame may look fun, but its sharp angles may actually make everyday living not so fun. Consult with a licensed contractor to determine ways around the odd angles, like building short walls (called "knee walls") or dormers with built-in storage options.
3. See what needs to move out of the way (we're not just talking about holiday decorations).
Before you start moving those dusty boxes and unused furniture out of the way, consider what else is currently taking up space in your attic. Is your roof supported by rafter beams — which is fine for the remodel — or trusses (the W-shaped framing) — which may make the remodel a no-can-do? Do you have appliances and system components housed in the attic, like a hot water heater or HVAC system, that will need to be relocated? To make the most out of your conversion, every existing element must be evaluated.
4. Now see what needs to be added.
Unfortunately, determining whether or not you want to add an adjoining bathroom (which means getting a licensed plumber involved, of course) isn't the only other decision that needs to be made. Rather, you need to consider the current state of the insulation — it's probably just on the attic floor versus the walls and ceiling — and flooring, too — it's probably not meant to handle very much weight and constant walking. And what about wall and ceiling materials, windows, electrical and the appropriate access from below? All of these decisions need to be made before you even begin to think about paint colors and decorative accents.
Your best bet? Try not to get overwhelmed. It really will be worth it in the end. Simply take these factors into consideration and get all of your ducks — or ducts, rather — in a row. Then, work with the right professionals to make turning the attic into a living space an exciting reality.


Although this species is known from only a few specimens, three were collected in caves, and one in "Emerald Sink" (a cave about 500 m long) (Ward 1988), so this is probably a cave-dwelling species, although it might be a subterranean species that finds its way into caves.
Proceratium compitale is known only from the type specimens, collected in Val Verde and Terrell Counties, Texas and at an adjacent locality in the Mexican state of Coahuila.

This article will cover two basic causes of cracks in your foundation wall. If you have any signs of stress going on with your foundation go ahead and call your local structural engineer about your issue.
In the video, I use the box demonstration to show how these cracks can form. A typical residential foundation is very similar to our cardboard box design.
The bottom of the box is your foundation and the top of the box is the main floor system of your house. The diaphragm of the basement slab and the diaphragm of the main floor framing creates the strength of the wall. Typically, residential walls are not retaining walls.
'P' = total active soil force in pounds per lineal foot of wall length.
'h' = depth in feet of the wall.
So what is the 'P' in the equation? This is kind of surprising depending on the soil type. If you have a sandy soil versus a heavy clay soil your pressure can double. But let's talk about an average.
So in this rule, if you have a typical eight foot soil pressure against your wall (clay soil) you could have upwards of 1800 pounds of pressure against your exterior wall for every foot.
That is the total load against against your that foundation wall of your house. This is a pretty staggering number. This most often occurs when there is a saturated condition of soils. This is why you hear that drainage away from my house is important. Saturated soil pressure is the number we are concerned about.
Ensure there is proper drainage away from your foundation and away from your house. Soils get heavier when they're wet and that's when you started getting such large amounts of pressure against the 30 foot long foundation wall.
In the video, we cut the basement (box) in half so you can see some detail.
The connection between the floor of your house typically consists of an anchor bolt every 4-6 feet connected to 2 x 4's sitting on your wall. If this connection fractures under stress, you will typically see inward movement from the top part of the wall. The pressure from the outside will slowly push the wall into your basement over time.
In that case, the characteristic of the crack that you're going to see if you're standing in your basement looking at your wall, is going to be a diagonal crack from the top down. Your connection to your floor is no longer intact and has given away.
Customer of ours. LEVEL performed structural Engineering/design, Ram Jack provided the repair.
Now, another common failure due to lateral soil pressures is the scenario where the connection to the floor and the connection to the concrete basement slab is still in tact but the wall itself bends in from the middle. This typically creates a horizontal crack along the the wall. What's happening is the structure of the wall itself isn't strong enough to resist that weight.
With the clay model, you can clearly see how the horizontal crack would start to form under this type of stress.
If you have a walk out area that doesn't have a foundation on one side, you can get a completely different type of movement. foundation where you actually have a walk-out scenario. Since there is less resistence on the other side of this wall, if you have heavy pressure coming from the other side of the house, you start to see signs of rotating or pushing over. The foundation wall being pushed over will start to look out of plum.
These are two of the cracks you might see in your foundation due to lateral soil pressures. In the next article we will talk about swelling clay soils as the cracks can differ greatly.
Pay attention to your foundation, if you see any sign of stress (cracks, movement, shifting), call your local structural engineer.
If you are seeing serious issues, do not panic. There are great companies out there that make amazing products that can resolve this.


Itron names third-party solar aggregator Sunrun as a buyer of its solar power meters. What meters are the other solar players using?
Residential solar systems usually don't have much interaction with the meter attached to the side of the home. Mostly, they spin the meter's dial backwards when they're cranking out more power than the house is using, and get read once a month to calculate the bill.
Smart meters can enable two-way communication to deliver more up-to-date information on how that digital dial is spinning -- although we've seen reports of early problems with smart meters running twice as fast, instead of backwards, when they're not programmed to realize they're attached to a solar power generating home.
Of course, that's a simple thing to fix. Because most U.S. customers see solar's payoff as power bill reductions, rather than direct payment for the solar power they generate, simple net-metering-enabled smart meters may suit their purposes, and the utility's purposes, just fine. Some utilities install a second meter as part of a solar net metering or feed-in tariff deal with their customers as well.
But for third-party residential solar companies like SolarCity, SunPower, Sunrun, Borrego Solar, Clean Power Finance, OneRoof Energy and others, keeping a revenue-grade tally on actual solar power generated is critical. That's because these companies have promised their customers -- and their investors -- that they'll keep close track of every dime of power generated, to make sure their complex lease or power-purchase arrangements are paying out properly over time.
That's the market Itron is tackling with its cellular-linked solar power meters. While the big smart meter maker announced their availability just this week, they've actually been out in the market for some time now (PDF) under the name of SmartSynch, the company Itron (Nasdaq: ITRI) bought for $100 million in March. And while no customers have been formally named, Campbell McCool, marketing manager, told me in a Monday interview that one buyer of the Itron cell-linked solar meters is Sunrun.
Those readings are uploaded onto web portals to show customers just how much money they're saving with their financed solar system from day to day, along with other data and updates. Most of the other third-party solar aggregators offer similar services, as do smart meters from utilities like Pacific Gas & Electric, though these measure solar power's net effect on household bills, not direct generation.
But third-party solar needs revenue-grade meters, to provide auditable data to the various financing parties involved, McCool said. It would be nice if they could also monitor system performance, to make sure their asset isn't being degraded by dirt on the panels or shade from overgrown trees, for example. Itron's system comes integrated with meter data management, network management, back-end IT integration and all the other supports of a modern AMI network, McCool said.
Third-party aggregators also need to be able to connect with individual meters, installed in an unpredictable pattern across different utility service areas, he said. Cellular works well for that, while the mesh networking used by the majority of the smart meters deployed in the U.S. to date requires lots of meters in proximity to one another to pass each others' messages along to central collection points -- a fact that's led key mesh smart grid players, like Silver Spring Networks, to add more cellular capabilities to their technology.
Of course, Itron isn't the only one using cellular to connect solar smart meters. About 60,000 to 80,000 of these meters were sold last year, McCool said, and Itron competes with various vendors on that front. Commercial and industrial meters have been using cellular for the past decade or so, as an improvement on the "plain old telephone line" (POTS) systems that were the first two-way communicating meters. Utility-scale projects are fully integrated with grid generation and transmission operation systems, but aggregated rooftop solar could also be a significant grid resource -- if it can be monitored and managed effectively.
That could open the door to a big new growth market for smart meter players like Landis+Gyr, Trilliant, Grid Net that are using 3G and 4G cellular to connect to meters. At the same time, communications technology giants like Verizon (NYSE: VZ), AT&T (NYSE: T), Sprint (NYSE: S), Qualcomm (Nasdaq: QCOMM) and others in the United States, along with coequals in Europe and Asia, have been beefing up their smart grid offerings.
Just how big might the solar metering market grow to be? McCool wouldn't take a guess, but he did highlight the fact that third-party solar financing now leads the residential markets in California, Arizona, and Colorado. GTM Research's U.S. Solar Market Insight: 2nd Quarter 2012 report finds that in the California market, the average installed price of a third-party-owned system dropped to $5.64 per watt in the second quarter, compared to $5.84 per watt for directly owned solar systems -- a first in the industry.
There's also a lot of financing available for the third-party solar boom. Bloomberg New Energy Finance estimated earlier this month that the market for solar-backed securities could reach $4.6 billion by year's end, combining roughly $1.16 billion in third-party solar financing projects and about $3.6 billion for solar projects being financed this year.
There are a myriad of other approaches to making residential rooftop solar a smarter part of the grid. Microinverter maker Enphase delivers data to homeowner and company via powerline carrier and cellular or broadband connections. Other companies offer home solar energy management portals, and for the well-heeled green enthusiast, there are battery systems to store solar power for use at night, or during blackouts -- or, perhaps, to stabilize the local grid.

'He owns the company': Drake may have just outsmarted Health Canada's strict pot promotion rules
If Drake were to promote More Life on Instagram for instance, that would not be a violation of cannabis advertising rules because he is an owner of the company

Vanmala Subramaniam
Superstar rapper Drake is jumping into the cannabis game through a cleverly structured deal that marketing experts say could effectively circumvent strict advertising rules that govern the promotion of cannabis.
Drake announced Thursday morning the launch of his new cannabis company More Life Growth Co., a joint venture with Canopy Growth Corp. in which Drake will own 60 per cent Canopy the remaining 40 per cent. As part of the deal, More Life will become the beneficial owner of a cannabis production facility in the Toronto suburb of Scarborough, Ont., that is already being operated by Canopy.
"The structure of setting up the joint venture between Canopy and Drake's new company is a very clever way around the general sponsorship prohibition because he's not technically being paid by Canopy to promote cannabis," said Chris Bolivar, vice-president of strategic growth at cannabis retail chain Fire & Flower.
Feeling burned: The first year of legal cannabis has been a complete disaster for investors
Cannabis marketing rules still hazy post-legalization
Cannabis firms use creative marketing tactics to skirt strict regulations
Cannabis advertising rules in Canada are similar to that of tobacco — any kind of endorsement that glamourizes cannabis or promotes it as a lifestyle is strictly prohibited. Although there are hundreds of different cannabis brands on shelves in legal retail stores, none of the licensed producers associated with those brands are allowed to promote them, or package them in anything other than plain packaging, resulting in weak brand recognition by consumers.
But Drake is Drake, and anything he touches tends to become part of the country's cultural fabric, potentially giving More Life Growth an edge over other cannabis brands.
According to Bolivar, if Drake were to promote More Life on Instagram for instance, that would be well within his right and not a violation of advertising rules on cannabis because he is an owner of the company, and not just a celebrity paid by Canopy to endorse their product.
"The issue around sponsorship by a celebrity is whether or not the celebrity is paid consideration for the endorsement of the product," said Bolivar, who was part of a Canadian Marketing Association team that developed advertising guidelines to help the cannabis industry navigate the tough regulations.
It is very smart, because it is certainly a run around the regulations
Drake commands market access that no cannabis company comes close to having. His Youtube channel has over 13 billion views, and he has almost 53 million followers on Instagram. Within hours of teasing the launch of More Life in an Instagram post Wednesday evening, the company's own account had gained more than ten thousand followers.
"I'm not sure whether the association right now is stronger between More Life and Drake or between Canopy and Drake, but as this rolls out, this is going to continue creating publicity," said David Soberman, a marketing professor at the Rotman School of Management. "It is very smart, because it is certainly a run around the regulations. You're not supposed to use a person in the promotion of cannabis and that's exactly what this is, if you think about it," he added.
Soberman believes that Drake's promotion of More Life on social media falls within a grey area of cannabis advertising regulations. "One of the reasons the government came up with strict marketing regulations is to stop this kind of thing. But at the same time he owns the company, and you are allowed to have some kind of targeted brand promotion talking about the attributes of the products. I think this will be an interesting test case for the regulators," he said.
Marketing aside, the deal comes at a crucial time for Canopy Growth, which saw revenue decline in its most recent quarter.
Under the terms of the arrangement, the Smiths Falls, Ont.-based company will reserve the right to nominate two board members to More Life, and will continue to hold the Health Canada licence required to cultivate and sell product from the Scarborough facility. And more crucially, Canopy will retain the rights to distribute More Life products.
Drake, a progressive avant-garde celebrity, is the right fit for a brand new industry
"As a cannabis business person, I've seen these celebrity strategies work and not work. When it works best, it is with a celebrity that has true involvement with the cannabis plant and plays an active role in building the brand," said Steve DeAngelo, a long-time cannabis activist in chairman of California cannabis company, Harborside.
"Drake may do very well, but I think there are risks because larger cannabis companies have not been very successful at producing high quality cannabis and at the end of the day, that's what we know customers in this business want," he said.
Soberman, however, believes that the key to the success of any celebrity brand is ensuring that that product category is promoted by the right person. "If Donald Sutherland was the person promoting cannabis, I would say that just wouldn't make much sense," he said.
"When there are two things that go together from a marketing perspective, that adds traction. In this case, Drake, a progressive avant-garde celebrity, is the right fit for a brand new industry."

AMT is a long-acting, synthetic psychedelic and euphoric stimulant known for causing nausea and vomiting. It was first developed in the 1960s and remained very uncommon until the 1990s when it experienced a surge in popularity and was scheduled (made illegal) in April 2003.
WARNING: Some users and sellers have confused AMT and 5-MeO-AMT resulting in unpleasant and/or dangerous overdoses.
Are 5-MeO-DIPT or AMT scheduled/illegal in Canada?


In the near future wild yeasts are going to be isolated from different ecosystems from my neighborhoods and wild yeasts are grown in a home laboratory. Eventually yeastograms are made with these wild yeasts.
Also I am trying to grow different habitats for yeastograms, on our balcony, mainly different mosses.
Yeastograms have been visiting the habitat. They are not living in the environment yet. First, I am trying to keep, the moss and other creatures alive.
For future project the partners should have connection, experience or interest working with wild yeasts. For example home baker´s or beer maker´s with their knolwdge of using wild yeasts. Project is open to different ideas and collaboration possibilities.
Yeastring is a spokesman for yeasts, specializing in wild strains. And not to forget to share knowledge regarding the planet's biodiversity, ecosystems and sustainable use of biodiversity.

Good or Bad, Words Do Matter
by Shawn Akers | Mar 8, 2013 | Israel & Jewish Roots, Standing With Israel
How could I say it any better than the wise King Solomon in Proverbs 18:20-21:
"From the fruit of a man's mouth his stomach is satisfied; he is satisfied by the yield of his lips. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit."
The words we speak are oftentimes just as, if not more important than, our actions.
I've been thinking a lot about words this week.
Today, parts of the world are mourning the brutal dictator Hugo Chavez who died this week. In my opinion, Chavez was on the top five list of the worst humans on the planet. Not only did he violently repress any of his own Venezuelan people who dared to disagree with him, he was also a close ally of the vicious Iranian regime.
He even invited Hezbollah terrorists to literally set up camp in Venezuela, giving them a safe harbor in the western hemisphere, and setting the stage for what could have been the next "Cuban missile crisis."
Now, mercifully and pitifully, Chavez is dead. And what he leaves behind is a legacy of hate-filled words.
Chavez famously went to the United Nations in 2006, during a meeting of the General Assembly, and called then U.S. President George Bush "the devil" and said the podium-area "still smells of sulphur."
This comment made him a hero to many who hated Bush and his policies. But to me, as someone who actually studied diplomacy at the United Nations as a college student, this was an anathema to the very existence of the U.N.
What Chavez said during his multi-hour tirades on Venezuela television was his own business. But to go to the U.N., during a gathering of world leaders, seemingly under the guise of "peacemaking" and "bridge-building," and to refer to the leader of the host nation as "the devil" made me further question why the U.N. even continues to exist.
Yes, words matter. Just ask the Venezuelan journalists who took on "El Comandante" and ended up being thrown into prison and brutally tortured.
But Chavez's words aren't the only ones ringing in my ears this week.
Take, for example, former basketball star Dennis Rodman (a childhood hero of mine, as a Detroit Pistons fan … I once even dined with Rodman during a "fan luncheon"). Rodman was recently invited to North Korea, and upon returning, referred to dictator Kim Jong Un as "an awesome kid."
It just so happens that "awesome kid" is the most violent repressor of Christians on the planet, sending them to work camps that rival Auschwitz. Just Thursday, North Korea vowed a preemptive nuclear strike on the United States. I hope Rodman has a bunker.
Yes, words matter.
Friday, America's First Lady, Michelle Obama, will take part in a State Department event honoring "international women of courage." One of those "courageous" women being honored is Samira Ibrahim. A quick glance at Ibrahim's Twitter account, show just how courageous she is.
After five Israeli tourists and a Bulgarian bus driver were killed by terrorists, last year, Ibrahim tweeted: "an explosion on a bus carrying Israelis in Burgas airport in Bulgaria on the Black Sea. Today is a very sweet day with a lot of very sweet news."
On the 2012 anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, as Egyptian rioters stormed the U.S. Embassy in Cairo, Ibrahim tweeted: "Today is the anniversary of 9/11. May every year come with America burning."
And, Ibrahim even tweeted out the words of another prolific speaker, none other than Adolph Hitler himself. She shared his "courageous" quote: "I have discovered with the passage of days, that no act contrary to morality, no crime against society, takes place, except with the Jews having a hand in it."
Let us pray that an outcry reaches the White House, before Mrs. Obama humiliates herself by honoring such a woman.
Yes words matter.
Words mattered as U.S. Senator Mark Kirk, a champion for Israel, returned to the world stage this week, after a long recovery from a debilitating stroke. He courageously told an audience at the annual AIPAC convention: "I have one message for the dictators in Iran … I'm back!"
Speaking of AIPAC, while I don't always agree with them politically, the words of U.S. Vice President Joe Biden and Democratic Senator Robert Menendez during the AIPAC conference were also very important. Both gave impassioned speeches in support of Israel and against Iran and the Palestinians.
Words mattered as the top U.S. commander in the Middle East, Marine General James N. Mattis, told Congress on Tuesday that the sanctions against Iran are not working. He said:
"Despite significant economic sanctions and increased diplomatic isolation within the global community, Iran continues to export instability and violence across the region and beyond."
It mattered this week, when Israeli singer Rita Yahan-Farouz sang at a special United Nations concert. The Iranian-born Jew, who immigrated to Israel, sang an impassioned plea for improved relations between the people of her birth country and her adopted home.
And the words written by Muslim scholar Ed Husain matter. This week he wrote an op-ed in the New York Times calling for an end to "the Arab boycott of Israel."
"The decades-long Arab boycott has failed miserably," Husain writes, "How much longer will we punish Palestinians to create a free Palestine?"
It's a powerful piece that should be read and shared by all.
Yes, King Solomon was right; "Death and life are in the power of the tongue."
Choose wisely, today, what your legacy will be.

Q: Query post and sort by custom value calculated with custom field on cpt I shall made a query post ad I have some issue to sort the posts.
I have multiple custom fields that calculated in php (with some operators) a final value for each posts - I call it $price.
These prices will be calculated also considering some input values from a form.
It is a numeric value (for example price) and I'd like to sort the query post by all of these price.
Usually I use
    'meta_key'  => 'price',
    'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
    'meta_type' => 'NUMERIC',
    'order' => 'DESC',

But in this case I do not have custom fields 'price', because it is a value that I calcuted on php starting from other custom fields.
Is there a way to proceeed?
EDIT: I'm trying to find a solution and a similar approach has been made here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36369702/wordpress-sort-the-posts-returned-by-wp-query
So I tried to array my values and use usort to sort correctly them.

$my_query = new WP_Query($args);
while ($my_query->have_posts()): $my_query->the_post();
    $value_1 = get_post_meta($post->ID,'value_1',true);
    $value_2 = get_post_meta($post->ID,'value_2',true);

//    $value_3 = input by user - coming from form
    $price = $value_1*$value_2*$value_3;
    $price_array[]= array( 'ID' => $post->ID,
                            'price' => $price);

endwhile;

usort($price, function ($item1, $item2) {
    if ($item1['price'] == $item2['price']) return 0;
    return $item1['price'] < $item2['price'] ? -1 : 1;
});

$sorted_posts = array();

foreach($price_array as $key)
{
    $sorted_posts[]=$key['ID'];
}

$args = array(
    'post_type'               =>    'my_cpt',
    'post_status'             =>    'publish',
    'post__in'                =>    $sorted_posts,
    'orderby'                 =>    'post__in'
);

$my_query =   new WP_Query($args);

But now how I can query the query_post update? I tried to add $my_query = new WP_Query($args)   while ($my_query->have_posts()): $my_query->the_post();
But it doesn't work...


Report: There's No Coffee At T..
A friend sent me a message saying we should check out a new exhibition at Counterpart Coffee Gallery called "New Wabi-Sabi." Truth was, I didn't even know what wabi-sabi meant. Still, I'd heard good things about Counterpart, and I needed coffee—these were valid reasons to go.
I liked this; it made me feel better about the failed cups of coffee I brewed each morning.
Counterpart Coffee Gallery is a three-story, faded-yellow building on the corner of an intersection in Nishi-Shinjuku. The Glitch Coffee symbol is painted high on an outside wall. Inside, Counterpart feels just like Glitch Coffee roasters in Jimbocho—white concrete walls, simple wooden tables and chairs, and naked lightbulbs hanging from the ceiling. It's all very minimal, very lived-in, and strangely comforting.
I ordered a coffee and asked manager Yuya Kosakada about the shop. He said the coffee is all Glitch, and the concept is lifestyle-centric.
Photographer Masayoshi Kusunaga sat at the counter. "New Wabi-Sabi" is his exhibition, and he offered to give me a tour. He told me the term wabi originated with a famous Japanese tea master, Sen no Rikyu, and developed into wabi-sabi through Matsuo Basho, a famous poet. Kusunaga said the connection to tea and ritual for traditional wabi-sabi made coffee a nice fit for a contemporary view of it.
We went upstairs. At a small table, two men sipped at beer; another customer sat at a counter by the window, staring out at passing traffic. Kusunaga talked about the photos on the walls. He said that, though simple, the photography had hidden depth. In combination, the photographs told stories. It made me think of coffee—a simple drink on its own, you could still follow it down any number of different rabbit holes.
Downstairs, while I sipped at an iced coffee, I mentioned to Kosakada that the photography captured moments not easily found outside Japan. He said he hopes future exhibitions and events also get at this idea—the sharing of culture and art unique to Japan. Counterpart is a gateway to that, he said, with coffee as the conduit. He pointed to a CD on the counter as an example—a collaboration between Counterpart and Madcore Records called Chill Mix, a light, mellow set of jazz, funk, and soul, designed as a companion to a similar style of coffee.
It was intriguing to think of this coffee shop as a space for sharing and experiencing culture. In its own way, coffee is an extension of the tea ceremony, but for a new generation—one that wants its own way to express ideas and create art.
And what a cool idea, I thought, for a coffee shop to be a window into the art and culture of a generation.
It gave me reason to look forward to whatever exhibition Counterpart might hold next.
Counterpart Coffee Gallery is located at Shibuya, Honmachi 3-Chome 12-16, Tokyo. Visit their official website and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.
