Today there are many (many!) Belgian waffle makers on the market. We set out to find the best one by making hundreds of waffles and by going the extra waffle-making mile by consulting a postdoc in MIT's mechanical engineering program to learn the basic thermodynamic principles at work in waffle irons. After a month of waffles for breakfast and for lunch, we had a solid winner—an iron that made picture-perfect Belgian waffles, two at a time, in under 5 minutes.
Earliest of the 16th century waffle recipes, Om ghode waffellen te backen – from the Dutch KANTL 15 manuscript (ca. 1500–1560) – is only the second known waffle recipe after the four variants described in Le Ménagier de Paris.[23] For the first time, partial measurements were given, sugar was used, and spices were added directly to the batter: Take grated white bread. Take with that the yolk of an egg and a spoonful of pot sugar or powdered sugar. Take with that half water and half wine, and ginger and cinnamon.[24]
Update. Two months later? All great except for the most crucial role of a waffle iron. The bottom plate no longer heats. At All. Zippo. Warranty out. Choices? Heat waffle iron until indicator light goes out. Pour in half usual amount of batter. Let cook for 17 minutes. Open lid. Flip waffle. Close lid until cooked. Or? Trash can and curses upon ATROCIOUS Presto Belgian waffle iron.
This waffle iron will make your Valentine's Day morning all the more special – or any day you want to celebrate love – because it will make you one waffle that will separate into 5 smaller waffles, each shaped like hearts. It beeps to notify you when it's preheated and ready to cook, and another beep lets you know when the waffle is done. And its Teflon surface makes for a smooth clean up, too.
Waffle makers range widely in quality and features, not to mention in the waffles they produce. Opinions on what exactly constitutes a great waffle vary enormously from person to person. Some people want them brown and crispy, others like them softer and fluffier. We set out to find the model that could make the most broadly appealing waffles with the least hassle.
Waffles remained widely popular in Europe for the first half of the 19th century, despite the 1806 British Atlantic naval blockade that greatly inflated the price of sugar.[50] This coincided with the commercial production of beet sugar in continental Europe, which, in a matter of decades, had brought the price down to historical lows.[51] Within the transitional period from cane to beet sugar, Florian Dacher formalized a recipe for the Brussels Waffle, the predecessor to American "Belgian" waffles, recording the recipe in 1842/43.[52][53][54] Stroopwafels (Dutch syrup wafels), too, rose to prominence in the Netherlands by the middle of the century.[52] However, by the second half of the 1800s, inexpensive beet sugar became widely available, and a wide range of pastries, candies and chocolates were now accessible to the middle class, as never before; waffles' popularity declined rapidly.[50][51]
Our biggest criticism was one of consistency: some batches turned out strong, but others showed signs of uneven heating or inefficient steam release. Some waffles had over-crisped spots while others were golden on the bottom but soggy and undercooked on top, as though they came from two different irons. Still, the Krups was a solid performer, especially given its capacity, reasonable price, and rave reviews from other testers—it was the #1 pick from the Wirecutter and has over 240 five-star reviews on Amazon. We feel confident recommending it as a wallet-friendly alternative to the All-Clad.
have been making the same quick waffle recipe that came with the vintantonio belgian waffle maker I bought over 25 years ago. The recipe is good but has a whole stick of butter in it and it means taking out the kitchenaid. I'm all for simple. Of course in my world, waffles still and will always needs butter ON it as well as pure maple syrup [I do take a small bottle of the stuff to restaurants when going out for breakfast.] Still, I'm so ready for something new. Scouring the internet, this one speaks to me. Having always used real butter, will use coconut oil. True to form, I'll 'experiment' on company this weekend. Thanks
The Thermostat uses a bimetallic strip to break the circuit when the desired temperature is reached. This is a strip made up of two metals that have different thermal expansion characteristics, such as steel and copper. If one metal expands faster than the other, the strip will warp -- and the motion caused by this warping can do useful work (like breaking the circuit...) In this case, a cam exerts some force on the bimetallic strip using a spring force to keep the contact in place for varying amounts of temperature. For "high" settings, the bimetallic strip must warp a lot more to break the contact than for "low" settings.
The Presto FlipSide 3510 Belgian Waffle Maker draws an unqualified recommendation and Best Buy designation from a professional test kitchen. Thousands of happy owners agree, saying it makes the best waffles they've ever eaten and does so consistently, waffle after waffle. The 3510 is small enough for even the tiniest kitchen, and includes a nice array of features that make it very simple to use. Durability is another plus, with some owners reporting they've had theirs for years.
In the late 14th century, the first known waffle recipe was penned in an anonymous manuscript, Le Ménagier de Paris, written by a husband as a set of instructions to his young wife.[16] While it technically contains four recipes, all are a variation of the first: Beat some eggs in a bowl, season with salt and add wine. Toss in some flour, and mix. Then fill, little by little, two irons at a time with as much of the paste as a slice of cheese is large. Then close the iron and cook both sides. If the dough does not detach easily from the iron, coat it first with a piece of cloth that has been soaked in oil or grease.[17] The other three variations explain how cheese is to be placed in between two layers of batter, grated and mixed in to the batter, or left out, along with the eggs.[18] However, this was a waffle / gaufre in name only, as the recipe contained no leavening.
We also tested the flip model from Hamilton Beach, the Hamilton Beach Flip Belgian Waffle Maker. It has a drip tray and removable plates for easy cleanup, and, although this unit is larger, the handle folds in for easier storage. Similar to the other Hamilton Beach model, though, this unit did not heat up well, which led to sticking and dense waffles.
The machine works fine, but there are lots of nooks and crannies that are difficult to clean. And the noise to tell you a waffle is "done" is horrific. It's an emergency alarm type sound so every time we use it, the sound nearly sends me running out of the house with my child thinking something awful is happening. I never get used to it. And to top it off, the alert timing is wrong so it serves no functional purpose. If it had no alarm or one that could be disabled, the rating would be 4 stars.
The thermostat allows the automatic control of the temperature in the waffle iron. However, the "Twin-O-Matic" also has a thermometer -- a device that indicates the actual temperature of the iron. The principle behing the thermomenter is basically the same - a bimetallic strip is made with the property that its warping is a linear function of temperature. This strip is connected to a lever mechanism that causes the small needle to rotate. Hence, the position of the needle is a direct function of the temperature. The dial is calibrated to reflect this.
Our best waffle maker top 5 list looks at the performance of all of the machines on the market, rather than limiting our selections to just one category. That way, you should be able to find the exact waffle maker you're looking for while knowing it's one of the best available. Of course, while you are preparing your waffles you will want to serve them with a healthy fruit smoothie prepared in your top of the range blender…
The mold that is used to cook waffles is a heavy, heat-retaining device with a top and bottom compartment. The mold is gridded in a rectangular fashion such that protrusions on the top portion are complemented by depressions in the bottom (and vice versa). Because waffle molds were historically made out of cast iron, the device has come to be known as a "Waffle Iron". Today, aluminum and steel are the principal metals used to manufacture waffle "irons".
This machine makes two beautifully browned, Belgian-style square waffles and offers a lot of potential for customization. Choose from four pre-set waffles — Belgian, classic, chocolate or buttermilk — then pick from one of the 12 doneness settings. When batter is poured on the grates (lined with a wraparound moat to catch any excess), the LCD display timer counts down and sounds an alarm when ready. And if that (literally) wasn't enough, just press the "A Bit More" button to add time until your just-right waffle is achieved.
The four-waffle Chef'sChoice Classic WafflePro 854 made waffles that were evenly browned and attractive-looking. And in addition to browning controls, this model has a switch for fast baking (crisp exterior, moist interior) or slow baking (crunchy, uniform texture). However, the waffles it made did not distinguish themselves enough to warrant this machine's much higher price tag—for about half the price, our pick can produce just as many excellent waffles.
If you love waffles, it's worth giving the large Cuisinart Double Belgian Waffle Maker some of your precious counter real estate. It makes the waffles dreams are made of thick, fluffy, and tender on the inside, and crunchy on the outside. Plus, it bakes two at a time. After you add batter to one chamber, you rotate it in its frame, fill the other side, and rotate it again. Lights and tones signal when each one is done. Unlike less expensive flip machines, this one feels solid and well built. It also comes with a ¾ cup measure for batter.
The Canyon BWR attracts world-class cyclists from around the world. It has a cult following of fervent racers from cyclocross, road and mountain biking. As a result, it has become known as much for its difficulty, with all the glorious trappings of the Belgian Spring Classics—as it has for the celebratory atmosphere that pervades the event's every funky facet.
If you can't find the Krups GQ502D, we recommend turning to the Chef'sChoice WafflePro Classic Belgian (840B), which makes a Belgian-style round waffle that's somewhat thinner than the results from our top pick. This model was the top pick in our original guide, for good reason: It bakes waffles evenly to a wide range of doneness levels (with some exceptions; see below), plus it has an alarm to alert you when the plates are sufficiently heated and the waffle is ready. However, it also has a couple of minor drawbacks, and those dropped it to the number-two slot.
A waffle is a dish made from leavened batter or dough that is cooked between two plates that are patterned to give a characteristic size, shape, and surface impression. There are many variations based on the type of waffle iron and recipe used. Waffles are eaten throughout the world, particularly in Belgium, which has over a dozen regional varieties.[1] Waffles may be made fresh or simply heated after having been commercially precooked and frozen.
The ones we definitely tend to avoid are the machines which claim to be able to make both great American and Belgian waffles. The old cliché "Jack of all trades, master of none" almost always holds true when it comes to models which supposedly are versatile enough to produce terrific waffles whether you prefer them thin or thick. The optimal construction of a waffle maker is very different for each type, and there's no way a quality machine can do justice to both.
This model is also equipped with an on/off switch, which people with large kitchens may find useful, as it makes it easier to keep it set up on a counter without having to unplug after each use (especially helpful if your outlets are in inconvenient places, and repeatedly plugging and unplugging is a hassle). It makes two seven-inch waffles at a time, with a two-minute recovery time, allowing you to make waffles for a crowd. The flip function means it evenly cooks thicker and thinner batters alike and requires less batter to fill edge to edge.
Hamilton Beach's Belgian style waffle maker makes round waffles that can easily be split into eight individual waffle sticks, which kids and adults alike will love (we're already dreaming of setting up a waffle dip buffet table at brunch, plus the opportunity to carry waffles with us on the go). The product's deep grids — in addition to the deep overflow channel around their edge — make it near impossible for even the klutziest cook to spill.
Optional: If you want your waffles a little crispy you can add some extra oil to this batter too. Additionally, you can experiment with adding different flavoring extracts or spices to the mix to make them taste the way you like. Sometimes we add pumpkin spice mix for a seasonal flavor, other times we may add Pecans or Lily's Dark Chocolate Chips for some variety too.
The professional-style rotating design bakes extra-thick Belgian waffles in minutes. The unique 180° flip design evenly spreads the batter for waffles with a crispy outside and fluffy, tender inside. Countdown timer and digital display signals when baking time is up. Easy to store! Dual function base locks in a vertical position for compact storage.
Introduced in North American in 1962, Belgian waffles usually use a yeasted batter that results in a waffle that rises, making them thicker and softer than American waffles -- although they should still be crispy on the outside. They're larger too, which is why they need a different type of waffle maker than traditional, American-style waffles. The deeper pockets on Belgian waffles are great for holding toppings like syrup, whipped cream or fruit.
The Chef'sChoice WafflePro Express Waffle Maker comes packed with features, such as a locking handle and cord storage, making it convenient to tuck away upright; two indicator lights; and an on/off switch, allowing you to store the unit plugged in (the only model besides our winning Cuisinart equipped with such a switch). Unfortunately, the waffles it produced were highly uneven in color, with pale edges and one side much darker than the other.
A waffle iron or waffle maker is a utensil or appliance used to cook waffles. It usually consists of two hinged metal plates, molded to create the honeycomb pattern found on waffles. The iron is heated and either batter is poured or dough is placed between the plates, which are then closed to bake a breakfast delicacies with a sweet dessert flavor, very similar to pancakes but lighter and sweeter. The appearance is much harder to achieve than a pancake; hence the waffle iron. [1]
Users are almost universally positive in their praise for this waffle maker's ability to turn out consistently beautiful and golden waffles, with a perfectly crispy exterior. This consistency is helped by the All-Clad's unique design -- steam is released through a vent in the top of the unit instead of building up under the lid, which cuts down on soggy waffles.
The All-Clad 99011GT 2-Square Belgian Waffle Maker makes two Belgian waffles at once. Each waffle plate creates a one-inch thick Belgian waffle with a crispy exterior (thanks, in large part, to the All-Clad's "steam-release" system) and a fluffy interior. If you like deep waffle pockets to catch your syrup and butter, you're likely to enjoy this product. A few owners we surveyed told us that they occasionally get a "limp" or "damp" waffle out of their All-Clad. However, this could very well be the result of anxious consumers who don't wait long enough for their waffle to thoroughly cook.
With all three batters, as well as our bonus rounds of stuffing and grilled cheese, there was a clear difference in the quality of results between higher-end, more expensive models and lower-end, budget models. The high-end models heated up significantly faster and hotter, and had a much shorter recovery time between waffles. They all have heavier plates than the lower-end models, resulting in even heat and consistent browning. The waffles made in our more expensive models all became deeply browned in under four minutes, while the less expensive models took anywhere from eight to 15 minutes. This resulted in huge variations in the density of the inside and the texture of the exterior of the waffles.
Featuring a six-point dial for customizing waffle doneness, this waffle maker quickly and consistently turned out two perfect waffles at a time, each with a crisp, evenly browned exterior and a custardy interior. With indicator lights on both sides of the waffle maker and a loud audible alert, it was easy to tell when each waffle was done. Weighing nearly 10 pounds and measuring more than 20 inches tall with the lid up, this model was by far the biggest and heaviest of those we tested—but that extra bulk ensured stability and durability. Two minor flaws: the lack of a removable drip tray and the shortness of the handle, on which hot condensation tended to accumulate.
Waffle sandwich caterer Matt Maichel, who also greases the plates before each use, had specific batter advice. "You should take your dough out of the fridge to come to room temp, or it will not cook as well," he said. "The trick to filling is, find a batter that you like; the viscosity determines how much goes [on the plates]. Thicker stuff doesn't spread out as well, so you might have to help it." (We found in testing that a spatula or the back of a ladle worked well for this.) "You use the least amount of really thin batter because it goes all over the place," he added.
"My husband and I love Belgian waffles. Over the past 20 years, you would not believe how many waffle-makers I have purchased. Some were good, and others were just terrible. My new All-Clad Belgian Waffle Maker makes perfect Belgian waffles. It is on the pricey side, but obviously worth every penny. I wish I had found it years earlier. The waffles that are perfect for us are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the color is a golden brown. I was able to achieve this on setting No. 5. I like to use King Arthur Flour Belgian Waffle Mix. The resulting waffles are outstanding."
Our hunt to find the best breakfast burrito led us to the The Waffle where we were left with a great experience. It really met all our main criteria for a solid breakfast burrito. It's big, has plenty of sausage, a lot of eggs, enough cheese where you can taste it, thick cut potatoes and served with ketchup as well as sour cream and pico de gallo. Why every breakfast burrito isn't served with a side of sour cream and salsa we have no idea. It really adds that little extra flavor and texture to complete the whole burrito. And with ketchup and hot sauce you can really manipulate the flavors so every bite is different. We love variety so this was a big plus and helped create that great eating experience. We would have loved to see the tortilla grilled to add a little crunchy exterior so that was a bummer. For $10.50 it's a little on the pricey side for a breakfast burrito but given the size and everything you get with it, we think it's worth it
Once the waffle iron has preheated, using a pastry brush, coat the inside (top and bottom) of the iron with oil. Pour enough batter into the waffle iron to just cover the waffle grid. Close the iron and cook the waffle as per the manufacturer's instructions, about 3-5 minutes, until golden brown. To prevent the waffles from getting soggy, toss them— one at a time— back and forth between your hands a few times to help release any steam. Continue on with the rest of the batter until done.
The Kalorik Traditional Belgian Waffle Maker makes large, fluffy, Belgian-style waffles with ease. Pour your favorite waffle batter onto the non-stick coated plates and close the lid, the waffle maker does the rest! Equipped with an adjustable temperature control knob, you can cook your waffles to perfection, make them as soft or as crispy as you would like. The unit features power and ready indicator lights, so that you always know when your waffle maker has reached its optimum cooking...
Preheat the waffle iron. Sift the dry indredients into a medium sized bowl. Separate the eggs, putting the egg whites in smaller bowl. Beat the egg whites until they are stiff. (If you are using an electric mixer, you can beat the egg whites first, then beat the batter without having to wash the beaters. The reverse is not true. If you beat the batter first and you have to wash the beaters before beating the egg whites.) Add the egg yokes, oil and milk all at one time to the dry indredients. Beat until there are no lumps in the batter. Fold the egg whites into the other batter using a spatula or other flat utinsel. Put a full 1/2 cup of batter in your waffle iron to make a 9-inch round waffle. This recipe makes about eight 9 inch waffles. Adjust the quantity by volume if you have an older waffle iron that maxed 4 or 6 inch waffles.
This batter also benefited the most from the flip mechanism found in some of the irons we tested, likely due to the fact that it's a thinner batter that flows flat into the iron. (The flip design delivers even heating by making sure that a thin batter receives equal contact with the plates on both the top and the bottom.) The waffles resulting from this batter browned more evenly in the flip models than in the stationary ones, with the exception of our high-end picks, the Breville and All-Clad, both of which performed excellently. Ultimately, though, aside from our top-rated flip model, we'd steer you toward our other top picks, including the budget ones, even though they're stationary: They produced better waffles overall due to higher heat and shorter cook time, despite their uneven browning.
"Leslie Knope is my spirit animal, as I am completely obsessed with waffles, and I am a little bit crazy just like her. She would love this waffle iron, but then she would probably trash it after one use because she would be scared of putting JJ's Diner out of business. Thankfully, I don't have a JJ's Diner near me, and I like to make my own waffles. I can see Jerry/Larry/Garry Gengurch buying this waffle iron for Leslie Knope, and the mockery that would follow the next day as Leslie and the entire office would blame Jerry/Larry/Garry for putting JJ's Diner in danger.
This Cuisinart Belgian Waffle Maker makes large waffles, a little more than 1 cup batter. I use a heavier multigrain recipe with no eggs; although waffles are delicious, they come out a little unevenly cooked around the outside. The machine is lightweight and somewhat flimsy-feeling but the price fairly reflects that. I hope that does not affect how long it lasts. But overall I am happy with the purchase.
The Cuisinart Vertical Waffle Maker (WAF-V100) seems clever at first: It stands upright, and you pour batter into a spout at the top. But Amazon customers complain that the spout clogs easily, and that it's too small to allow add-ins such as blueberries or chocolate chips. Plus, this model won't work at all if you want to waffle anything else, like grilled cheese or hash browns.
The Hamilton Beach Round Waffle Maker was the closest in appearance and function to our former top pick, the (now-discontinued) Oster waffle maker. It is made from brushed stainless steel and high-quality plastics that help it fit into any kitchen. Like most flip-type waffle irons, the Hamilton Beach also has a removable tray that makes cleanup simple and straightforward.
After narrowing the list of finalists to six waffle makers, we ordered them and put them through a series of tests in our office, all of which were designed to measure the differences between each of our finalists. We took the data we gained from our testing and factored it in alongside the features that each waffle maker offers (indictor lights, ability to flip, etc.).
Waffles from the Hamilton Beach 26009 are also quite similar to those from the Proctor Silex 26016A and the Krups GQ502D: They're 1 inch thick and a square shape, with an evenly browned exterior. Waffles consistently came out crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, and though the browning control didn't produce quite as much range as any of our other picks, the Hamilton Beach 26009 never burned or undercooked a waffle. Batter didn't always fill the top plate evenly, leaving waffles a little blotchy on top, but not in a way that significantly affected taste or texture. And, unlike our other budget pick, the Hamilton Beach 26009 handled thin, yeasted batter with ease.
Flemish waffles, or Gaufres à la Flamande, are a specialty of northern France and portions of western Belgium.[69] The original recipe, published in 1740 by Louis-Auguste de Bourbon in Le Cuisinier Gascon, is as follows: Take "deux litrons" (1.7 liters or 7 cups) of flour and mix it in a bowl with salt and one ounce of brewer's yeast barm. Moisten it completely with warm milk. Then whisk fifteen egg whites and add that to the mixture, stirring continuously. Incorporate "un livre" (490 grams or 1.1 pounds) of fresh butter, and let the batter rise. Once the batter has risen, take your heated iron, made expressly for these waffles, and wrap some butter in a cloth and rub both sides of the iron with it. When the iron is completely heated, make your waffles, but do so gently for fear of burning them. Cooked, take them out, put them on a platter, and serve them with both sugar and orange blossom water on top.[70]
What we liked: The Cuisinart waffle maker was the hottest of all the irons we tested, making waffles in just over three minutes. The waffles it produced were light and fluffy on the inside, with a delicate and crisp crust. They had deep divots for holding lots of syrup and butter, and a traditional round shape. Because the iron gets so hot, the adjustable temperature is actually a useful feature, unlike on most of the other waffle irons we tested.
This Oster model made the most substantial waffles among the waffle makers we tested. About 1¼ inches thick, they looked like the kind you might get at a hotel brunch, puffy and evenly browned all over. Unfortunately, they were a bit dry and cakey, and none of our tasters liked them very much. The two sides cook quickly and then the waffle steams from the middle, creating a pronounced pale crevice where the waffle can be broken apart easily (good for sandwiches?).
Although stovetop waffle makers are a little harder to use than electric because you have to regulate the waffle iron's temperature and cooking time, they're also more versatile. They can be used for tailgating, camping trips, or during a power outage (if you have a gas stove). Stovetop waffle irons are usually much smaller and thinner than countertop models, too; so they're the ideal choice for small kitchens with limited storage, camping or tailgating, off-the-grid living, or anyone who enjoys the challenge of learning to create the perfect waffle by hand.

Accused cannibal charged with eating Grindr date's genitals due in court
The man accused of slitting his victim's throat, hanging him from his basement ceiling and eating his testicles in a grisly Christmas Eve murder will return to court early next year.
Mark Latunski allegedly confessed to the disturbing 2019 killing of 25-year-old hairstylist Kevin Bacon, who he met on the dating app Grindr
Bacon was found hanging naked by his ankles from the ceiling in Latunski's home in Bennington Township, Michigan, on December 28.
He allegedly cut off a part of Bacon's genitals and ate, according to court documents, which is how his parents learned about the details of their son's murder.
"Evil does exist and it touched us," Bacon's dad Karl Bacon told the Associated Press in a January 2020 interview.
"It's gut-wrenching to hear the details and we're beside ourselves.
It appears Bacon knew Latunski had a violent sexual fetish, according to court documents.
Mark Latunski allegedly confessed to the disturbing 2019 killing of 25-year-old hairstylist Kevin Bacon. Above, Latunski's home in Bennington Township.
What was released shows that Kevin had a dark side," Karl told FOX Detroit in 2020. "He obviously got into something that he wasn't prepared for.
Latunski has been in jail for two years awaiting trial.
I'm going to remember him how everyone else remembers him, that he's a good person who was passionate and cares for people."
Latunksi has been in a Michigan jail for about two years while the pre-trial process unfolds and is scheduled to return to court on February 3.
A judge ruled that he is able to stand trial in October 2020.
Bacon met Latunski on Christmas Eve 2019 after the two allegedly connected on Grindr, a dating app for gay men. He was reported missing the following day.
Bacon was struggling with his mental health at the time of his murder.
Bacon texted roommate Michelle Myers at about 6 p.m. the night he went missing to say he would be out for a while, according to MLive.
"I'm just in shock about the whole thing," Myers told the Michigan news outlet. "It's just hard to process right now."
Court documents revealed the horrifying details of the murder and that Latunski would sometimes stop taking medication for mental health issues.
His estranged husband told WJRT last week that Latunski "didn't act like there was anything amiss" after the murder.
An April 2021 Rolling Stone article reported Bacon struggled with depression, poor self image and was going through family troubles at the time of his murder.
Myers, Bacon's roommate, told Rolling Stone that he met up with family members and learned that someone he didn't want to see was coming in for the holidays, so he was looking for a distraction.
That led him to browse through Grindr, where he met his alleged killer.
He turned down game night with Myers and other friends to meet with Latunski for what was supposed to be a quick hookup, Rolling Stone reported.
He never returned.

Police found him in Latunski's basement on December 28.
Latunski was arraigned December 30 for murder and disinterment and mutilation of a dead body.

DJ SANDER VAN DOORN CHATS WITH THE UNTITLED MAGAZINE
by The Untitled Magazine
Untitled: How does it compare performing in New York versus Europe?
SVD: I think with every performance it's always the crowd that makes it special. Over here in New York the crowds always have been one of my favorites. I've been playing in New York City for the last ten years and I've built a cool, strong fan base. I always see familiar faces in front of the stage, so for me it makes it so much more special.
What sort of inspirations do you feel define your sound?
My inspirations come from listening to other artists, bands like Radio Head and Sigur Ros. I get a lot of inspiration from them and from other bands and my peers.
I heard you have a new single coming called "Project T" as well as the track "Neon"?
"Project T" is coming out now so I'm getting excited about that. I did a remix of the XX intro a couple of years ago. Dmitri Vegas & Like Mike really loved the tracks so they decided to do something with that as well. We ended up finalizing the track together. It's a revival of an old track of mine. It was really fun to do.
Was it a collaboration project?
Originally it was like Project X from the XX and then it was kind of like a team from Tomorrowland. We made it a project team.
How did you come up with your DJ moniker? Is that your real name?
The first name is my real name and the last name is completely different. It's impossible to pronounce in English so I got an old colleague of mine; I asked him, what would be a good Dutch last name that's easy to pronounce in English. He liked the name Van Doorn. Van means 'from' and Doorn is a place in Holland so whenever someone is called Armin Van Buuren or Sander Van Doorn or Paul Van Dyk, it's from the place called Dyk Doorn or Buuren. That's how we came up with that name.
Do you remember the first time that you performed? What was your big breakthrough?
I would say the first gig I ever did under my name was in Switzerland about ten years ago. I was really nervous and I was still playing with vinyl. It was a small club for 500 people. I did the first set and they booked me just for my production. I said, don't you want to know if I'm a DJ? They said no, it's fine, let's see what happens and it worked out really well. I really got to like the whole DJ part from that experience. The next performance was for 20,000 people in Poland a few weeks after that! I really got plunged into the DJ side of things from that. I would say that my productions made me grow a whole lot quicker than other DJs. That kind of defined my sound, and it snowballed from there.

Kim Kardashian Reveals Norths Strict TikTok Rules Amid Co-Parenting Struggles With Kanye West
The nine-year-old daughter of the 'Kardashians' star and the 'Donda' rapper is allowed to create videos on her joint account with her mom despite it against her dad's will.
AceShowbiz –Kim Kardashian has agreed to a strict rule for North West's TikTok use with Kanye West. The SKIMS founder's nine-year-old girl is allowed to create videos on her joint account with her mom, who appears in many of the clips but she has to use her parent's phone and isn't allowed to browse other TikToks.
Speaking to Gwyneth Paltrow on her "Goop" podcast, the mother-of-four, who also has Chicago, four, Psalm, three, and Saint, seven, with ex-husband, said, "It can only be on my own phone. It's not something where she can scroll and look at things. We don't do comments."
North uses the app as her creative outlet. Kim added, "She loves to do it and it makes her so happy. She's so innocent in so many ways." The "Good Morning" rapper previously said North was allowed to join the video-sharing app "against (his) will."
He wrote earlier this year, "SINCE THIS IS MY FIRST DIVORCE I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO ABOUT MY DAUGHTER BEING PUT ON TIK TOK AGAINST MY WILL ? (sic)." The mom-and-daughter duo launched the joint account in November 2021.
Kanye West said Kim Kardashian let their 9-year-old daughter North West join TikTok 'against my will.'
Kim, 42, and Kanye, 45, split earlier that year. Kim was advised not to allow North to do TikTok Lives by Mason Disick, Kim's sister Kourtney Kardashian's 13-year-old son with her ex Scott Disick, after Kim told her off for starting one when she's not allowed to.
Mason said in text messages to his aunt, "Hi I don't wanna disrespect North but I don't think she should do the lives unless someone is with her because people are always screen recording and she might tell information that isn't correct and stuff like that, that she will regret. I did the exact same thing as she did I would do the lives and now I regret saying one of the things I said."

      One Too Many Mornings

       Down the street the dogs are barking and the day is getting dark,

       As the night comes in falling, the dogs'll lose their bark,

       And the silent night will shatter from the sounds inside my mind.

       Yes, I'm one too many mornings and a thousand miles behind.

       From the crossroads of my doorstep my eyes start to fade

       And I turn my head back to the room where my love and I have laid

       And I gaze back to the street, the sidewalk, and the sign

       And I'm one too many mornings and a thousand miles behind.

       It's a restless, hungry feeling that don't mean no one no good

       When everything I'm saying you can say it just as good.

       You're right from your side, I'm right from mine,

       We're both just one too many mornings and a thousand miles behind.

According to the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), there are five leading factors involved in auto accidents.
Has your perspective on personal insurance changed to fit the times?
Here are a few examples of how safety, liability and personal insurance have changed in our society through the years.
20 years ago, it seemed normal for dogs to have total freedom in the neighborhood. Now leash laws prohibit that. This has reduced the number of dog bite claims.
Many people can remember when we used to hold babies in our laps in the front seat of the car while we were driving! Fortunately, we now have car seats to protect our little ones.
Do you remember how every office used to be filled with second hand smoke? Now we have workplace regulations that protect employees from smoke-polluted air.
Do you remember "party lines"? We shared home phone lines with our neighbors. We often would pick up the phone and hear Mr. Smith talking to his daughter. Privacy laws would not allow that now!
Smoking in public was common 20 years ago. Now, through education and medical research we all understand the effects of second hand smoke.
Drinking and driving – Believe it or not, there was a time when a person could leave a party buzzed or drunk and no one would think twice. Thankfully, laws and education have helped us understand the personal liability issues around driving while impaired.
Cell phones – When mobile phones first came out, everyone was driving and talking on their phones. It seemed normal until we learned how distracted driving is like driving drunk.
Auto insurance – The number of uninsured drivers has been reduced since most states now require proof of auto insurance. However, in some state there are still 30% of drivers without auto insurance.
Smoke detectors – In the 70's, the way we knew our home was on fire was to see the flames. With the introduction of smoke and fire prevention, we have reduced deaths form home fires.
Personal insurance needs change with the times, and the insurance we offer changes to meet your individual needs.

Salem Film Fest screens 'The Accountant of Auschwitz'
Survivor Bill Glied in Auschwitz
In 2015, a frail 93-year-old former Nazi officer made international headlines when he went on trial in Germany, charged with complicity in the murder of 300,000 Jews at Auschwitz.
Nicknamed "The Accountant of Auschwitz," Oskar Gröning was hardly the architect of the Holocaust. He was a 21-year-old soldier, following orders to collect and account for the items taken from Jewish prisoners as they were herded off trains and ultimately sent to their deaths.
Nonetheless, he was there, witnessing and abetting a system where 1.1 million people died at the notorious Nazi camp.
On the stand over 70 years later, with some who had survived Auschwitz in the courtroom as witnesses and testifiers, Gröning unemotionally described what he saw and what he did. He wanted to speak out as a witness because more than anything, he said, he wanted to debunk Holocaust deniers. On the other hand, as a participant, his hands were hardly clean. The issues raised were murky ethically and morally, asking questions with no clear answers.
Gröning was found guilty but died in March 2018, before he could begin the four-year prison sentence he was given.
If this sounds like it would make a great documentary film, director Matthew Shoychet and producer Ricki Gurwitz agreed. They teamed up to make the award-winning "The Accountant of Auschwitz," which will screen at Peabody's Black Box Theater (located inside the ArcWorks Community Art Center, 22 Foster St., Peabody) on Saturday, March 30, as part of the Salem Film Fest.
Shoychet, who grew up in a "pretty secular household" in Toronto, always was interested in Jewish subjects, but felt a special link through film. His grandfather showed him the 1959 film, "The Diary of Anne Frank," which opened his 7-year-old eyes to the Holocaust.
Years later, "Schindler's List" had a strong effect on him, Shoychet said. Although he is not a grandchild of survivors, many of his cousins and relatives were murdered. "I knew, as a Jew, I was connected," he said.
Gurwitz attended Jewish day school in Toronto in a family she describes as a mix of conservative and reform. A "history nerd," she was always interested in how her Jewish community has persevered through the centuries in the face of constant persecution.
Their paths crossed and they became friends in 2013 during an International March of the Living, the annual educational program that brings individuals from around the world to Poland and Israel to study the history of the Holocaust and to examine the roots of prejudice, intolerance, and hatred.
Shoychet took the trip again in 2015, where he met and befriended Holocaust survivor Bill Glied, who had to leave early to testify at the trial of another former Nazi in Germany.
"I didn't know Nazi trials were even possible anymore," Shoychet said.
By coincidence, Gurwitz, who was working as a TV producer, called Shoychet two months later to tell him about a story she just covered: the German trial of the former "Accountant of Auschwitz." The two combined forces, created a pitch, and started filming as soon as they could.
They faced many challenges. German law does not allow filming inside courtrooms, so animations and graphics fill in the blanks. But the biggest challenge to Shoychet was for people not to dismiss the film as "just another Holocaust film." His unique storytelling resists a chronological approach, instead interweaving side stories that take history and relate it to Gröning's trial.
"There is a feeling of a race against time. Soon, Nazi perpetrators and Holocaust survivors will be gone," Shoychet said.
For Gurwitz, making the film was a "life-altering experience. Witnessing a former SS officer testify in court is something I will never forget," she said. "I want to challenge preconceived beliefs about justice, punishment, and culpability. There are two sides here, and I could argue both of them. I want audiences to explore the complexities surrounding this trial and ask questions about how we punish war crimes, who is responsible, and what is the statute of limitations."
Salem Film Fest 2019 runs from Friday, March 29 to April 4. For more information or to buy tickets, visit salemfilmfest.com.

Q: SSRS Count total rows by month (and year) I'm learning SSRS and want to count number of DB rows by the date column in a table
It must look like this e.g. for 2018
---------------------------------------------
|   Month     |  Jan  |  Feb  | etc.....
---------------------------------------------
|Total Rows   |   10  |   15  | ............
---------------------------------------------

I'm not sure how to get this. I can only output all the row dates in a big list.
I know I need to group but not sure how.
Thanks

A: You can do a conditional aggregation:
SELECT
    [Month] = 'Total Rows',
    [Jan]   = SUM(CASE WHEN MONTH(DateColumn) = 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),
    [Feb]   = SUM(CASE WHEN MONTH(DateColumn) = 2 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),
    ...
    [Dec]   = SUM(CASE WHEN MONTH(DateColumn) = 12 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
FROM YourTable
WHERE
    DateColumn >= '2018-01-01'
    AND DateColumn < '2019-01-01'

A: Based on your Jan and Feb examples would you just have 10 records in Jan and 15 in Feb?
If so then you use a matrix control and add a column group that groups on month. Then drop the field that contains the values you want to count in the data cell.
If the data is numeric SSRS will add a sum by default '=SUM(Fields!myField.Value)` but you can change this to a count.

The Mnet Asian Music Awards' second 2018 ceremony (the MAMA Fans' Choice in Japan) sent shock waves through Asia with its giant energy-filled lineup on Wednesday (Dec. 12).
K-pop groups including BTS, Stray Kids, Monsta X, Wanna One, IZ*ONE, TWICE, NU'EST, and MAMAMOO treated audiences to their catchiest jams, set to lively dance moves and elaborate productions.
Whether you were at the giant event, or simply wish you were, the good news is that you can relive it all right here. Check out videos of some of the evening's most major performances below.
It wasn't long before members of IZ*ONE, MONSTA X, TWICE and GOT7 were teaming up to jam to an epic dubstep version of JJ Project's "Bounce." The performers busted a few breezy moves in pairs on opposite sides of the glowing diamond-shaped object in the center of the stage.
The atmosphere heated up when the best new male artist recipient, Stray Kids, hit the arena. Donning white suits, they jumped out of a convertible off-stage and emerged from behind a collection of flags, quickly jumping into a series of slick rap verses. "Pick up the pace," they yelled, syncing up with hypnotic dance moves.
Following the elaborate productions of "Spark" and "Jealousy," MONSTA X headed straight into the magnetic "Shoot Out." The boys rapped and bopped as shiny golden hands reached up from around the stage floor. The people underneath soon jumped out in matching back getups to join in on the group's power-soaked dance moves.
N'UEST might have been one of the smaller K-pop outfits to take the stage, but that certainly didn't stop them from packing a punch into their performance. They contrasted the graceful, sensitive string-and-piano-pushed verses with choppy jives on the synth-filled refrains. Their matching white outfits left them glowing.
TWICE was the second giant girl group to take the stage, and after strutting to "Yes or Yes" and "What is Love?" they joined together for the soft and playful, "Dance the Night Away." "If you wanna have some fun/ One two three, let's go/ Let's dance the night away," they sang on the beach-like stage. The girls bopped and skipped in unison as neon confetti rained down at the end.
Wearing tight red outfits and sporting some sassy dance moves, four-piece MAMAMOO revved up the crowd with a blend of their most popular tunes. A dance team backed the girls and their song's power-soaked electronic beat, while flag-bearers danced around the stage's edges. Blue laser lights zipped around the arena as the energy continued to build.
A dramatic violin-filled intro led BTS into the highly-anticipated "Fake Love." Giant cloth-draped hands lined the stage as the boys stared at their hooded reflections on the floor. They then broke free and burst into intense motions and layered vocals: "I'm so sick of this fake love." A quiet moment in the song led the members to hang like marionettes as a group of hooded dancers encapsulated them before emerging full-force.
The world-sweeping K-pop outfit closed out the show with "Anpanman." A futuristic rocket was shown blasting off on the center diamond screens as the group rose from the floor wearing space-y jackets. "I'm a new generation Anpanman/ I'm a new superhero Anpanman," they rapped as the platform lit up with blocky colors. BTS busted out their best bouncy dance moves, which were illuminated by the pulse of the audience's lights.

68% in Northern Ireland want referendum on leaving the UK
29 Aug 2021 2 minutes Read
The Sormont Assembly building in Northern Ireland. Picture by Robert Paul Young (CC BY 2.0).
68% of people in Northern Ireland want a referendum on whether they stay in the UK or join the Republic of Ireland, according to a new poll.
37% wanted a referendum within the next five years while 31% wanted one further out. Only 29% felt there should never be such a referendum.
The poll by Lucid Talk for the Belfast Telegraph comes after the new SNP-Greens coalition in Scotland agreed to hold a referendum on independence within the next five years, and preferably by the end of 2023.
According to the Northern Ireland poll, 49% supported maintaining the Union, with 42% favouring a united Ireland. A further 9% of participants said they had not yet made up their minds but intended to vote.
The latest Scottish independence poll shows a 3% lead for the 'No' side, by 47% to 44%.
While polls in neither Northern Ireland or Scotland show a majority for breaking away, the possibility of referenda in both countries might have an impact on the constitutional debate in Wales.
The latest Welsh independence poll, by Savanta ComRes in April, showed 28% for independence, 57% against and 15% undecided.
The Lucid Talk poll for the Belfast Telegraph was carried out online from August 20 until August 23, with 2,435 responses received.

Someone should wake up Alister 'Union' Jack (the Scottish Viceroy-General) that over 60% of part of the Disunited Kingdumb want a referendum about leaving said 'UK'.
Won't be long now until our cousins in Scotland reach that benchmark, too. What's Jack going to do then? Employ his minions to move the goalposts – yet again?
See, Alister Jack's amazing mobile goalposts « Wee Ginger Dug (wordpress.com)
Yeah please! Wake up! You are an embarrassment to the rest of us.
The breakup of the UK is getting closer everyday. We in Wales need to start preparing – we don't want to be left with England. Our children deserve better.

Let's not celebrate too soon whilst declaring that the Union is on borrowed time. The figures would indicate that the division of support for indy or remaining in the Union is very fine in a similar way to the way the Brexit referendum was, which caused a lot of division and recrimination, which echoes to this day. Support for indy resides at less than half wit the electorates in Scotland or Northern Ireland, and at just over a quarter of the electorate supportive of indy in Wales. Firm foundations on which to build, but far too soon to make a… Read more »

Wales need to work on inclusion and sense of belonging and justice of fairness. Action not just making noise. People would like to see it smell it touch it and live it. The more you immense yourself the more people join in even those who are against will turn around to your side that is mind shifting.
Ironic if both Scotland & NI leave this failing British Union. And I agree with others when they say it's an eye opener and a wake up call to Welsh Unionists.
A question to ponder. What will they to do if this becomes a reality and this false Union withers down to two? Will they reveal their true agenda finally of how they want to strip Wales of its nationhood and merge us into a Greater England. All I say is this. They can try, but you will evidently fail.

It will gather momentum once the campaign starts. That is what they are afraid of.
Unionists in Wales seriously need to be asking themselves the following…. What will the United Kingdom look like after Scottish Independence and Irish Reunification? Is a Union of just England and Wales really viable? What will be the name of this Union, and what will its flag look like? What would the national status of Wales be around the world when we are no longer share the same status as Scotland? A country within the Kingdom of England & Wales, will it still be entitled to field its own separate sporting teams? How long would the Welsh accept this, How… Read more »

Now this is crucial first thing: Click on each of the 3 missiles and pause production. That way all the argon will go to the lasers first.
Before the operatives even arrive, pause the game and set up some defenses. Sell all the automatic lasers that come with the base so they don't get all the existing argon right away. (You can buy more later.) With the game still paused, place lights throughout the open zone to find all the raptor pods. Place an automatic laser or two near each nest to destroy the pods before they can hatch. Now sell back any lights that aren't necessary. That will save credits and reduce power consumption.
Check the Planetary Scan in the Bridge Screen to see the number of raptor pods remaining. After you've destroyed them all, you can sell some of the stray lasers and place others just inside each gap in the rock wall above the base. This will help defend against future raptor invasions.
As the operatives arrive, train them and put them to work. Start with 2 training pods. (You can sell one later.) When Venus and Vasilios arrive, train each in space gas (Venus one more star, Vasilios two). While that's going on, place 2 argon gas rigs over the pool to the north of the base. When they're trained, send both operatives to work there.
You begin with 4 soldier robots. Send them from nest to nest to help the lasers kill the raptor pods. When you've destroyed all the pods, return the soldiers to the base, repair them if necessary and keep them on hand to respond to future attacks.
Place a silicon extractor near the silicon deposits to the southwest. Assign Hoshi there to start. When Greg comes, he can take over the mining. Then place 2 electronics fabricators and assign both Hoshi and Kita to make electronics. Give them additional electronics training when you can afford it.
As soon as you can, build more warehouses. You'll want lots of droids carrying supplies back and forth. You'll also need more power plants right away to run all your lights and industry. Several space bikes also help.
Once you've taken care of the raptor pods and established some base defenses, click missile production on. Now the argon and electronics will go toward completing the mission goal. Each missile requires 20 argon and 10 electronics. Remember you can pause production at any time during the mission to divert argon to the lasers.
Other tips: Have Mr. Zhang train in electronics fabrication (1 or 2 stars). Then place another electronics fabricator right outside the base for easy access. This will help meet the missile goal quickly.
The titanium in your stores is for manufacturing new soldiers if the others get damaged. You have the military robotics factory already. It's a lot easier to keep the soldiers repaired. If they are in danger, send them back to the base and have someone work the engineering repair facility to fix them.
If you're very close to finishing the missiles and still have lots of time left, you can pause production and lay in some stocks. Don't bother collecting lots of extra argon, though, since you lose all but a little when you begin the next mission. You can, however, sell argon and silicon and buy other things you need with the money (like soldier posts). All structures will be carried over.

Selfridges robber wrestled to the ground by ex-boxer in Goodge Street
by Editors 9:55 am, Friday, 7 June 2013 Updated 8:51 am, Tuesday, 11 June 2013
Scene of the crash. Police cordoned off the junction of Goodge Street and Charlotte Street.
A man working at a popular pizza restaurant on the corner of Goodge Street and Charlotte Street helped detain one of two men who had earlier robbed Selfridges department store on Oxford Street.
Many national newspapers are covering the story this morning. The Times reported that Mohamed Hussein, 29, an Egyptian student of law who works at Icco on Goodge Street wrestled one of the men to the ground after the scooter they were making their getaway on crashed.
The Times described Mr Hussein as an ex-boxer and having a striking resemblance to the Hollywood action hero Vin Diesel.
Mr Hussein told The Times: "Some other guys helped me hold him, while we waited for the police. I wasn't worried," he said. "I used to do boxing."
The raid on Selfridges took place about 8.30pm on Thursday 30 minutes before the store was due to shut. Two men are reported to have smashed glass cabinets containing watches and others items and then escaped on a motor scooter. They headed east through the streets of Marylebone ending up minutes later hurtling through Fitzrovia eventually crashing at the junction of Goodge Street and Charlotte Street.
Members of the public and people working on the street corner noticed a bag of watches fall from the scooter. Witnesses reported seeing one of the robbers trying to run off but he was wrestled to the ground after Mr Hussein ran out of the Icco restaurant and pinned him to the ground.
Staff at Icco told Fitzrovia News that Mr Hussein works part-time in the evenings is a big strong guy but mild-mannered and friendly.

Well done, Mohamed Hussein and the people that helped him.
Imagine these thieving losers' hurtling along Goodge Street on their mopeds whilst wearing their burkas; that treacherous junction with Charlotte Street was just too much for them.

The Fayette Garden Club took advantage of summer weather by having their summer meetings in country settings.
The July meeting was at member Barbara Sams' country home. President Marge Clifford welcomed everyone, and then read a poem entitled, "Better Off." Pam Rhoads gave the secretary's report and Debbie Carr gave the treasurer's report.
Linda Warfield reported on the OAGC State Convention. The remainder of the business meeting was spent making plans for the upcoming Region 16 Garden Club meeting to be held on Oct. 16 at the fairground's Fine Arts building. The Washington Garden Club will also assist with that event.
Mr. Sams led a tour of the various areas of their home. Linda Morgan gave advice on raising water lilies. She brought one of her lilies which was later placed in the Sams' backyard. The group then enjoyed refreshments served on the lanai – the open sided room overlooking their yard.
Mary Estle and co-hostesses Connie and Susie Meriweather welcomed members to the Estle cottage at Cedarhurst for the August meeting and annual picnic. After the picnic was enjoyed, Pam Rhoads led the business meeting. The roll call was answered by naming a favorite summer flower. The secretary and treasurer's report were given and annual dues were collected. The main topic of business was the regional meeting to be held in October.
Connie Meriweather gave a demonstration of flower arranging using various sizes and colors of zinnias from her garden. As Connie arranged the flowers, her daughter Susie presented many facts about zinnias and their care. The beautiful basket of flowers was then presented to the hostess Mary Estle.
Club members will travel to Jamestown to the home of Linda Warfield for their September meeting.

Q: reactjs chartjs change data when user clicked I want to ask about changing data on a bar chart when the user clicks a button or tree menu.
So I have a useState to store provinsi, kota, kelurahan and kecamatan =
  const [dataProvinsi, setDataProvinsi] = useState([]);
  const [dataKota, setDataKota] = useState([]);
  const [dataKecamatan, setDataKecamatan] = useState([]);
  const [dataKelurahan, setDataKelurahan] = useState([]);
  const [isLoading, setIsLoading] = useState(false);
  const [isLoadingKota, setIsLoadingKota] = useState(false);
  const [isLoadingKecamatan, setIsLoadingKecamatan] = useState(false);
  const provinsiRef = useRef([]);
  const kotaRef = useRef([]);
  const kecamatanRef = useRef([]);

Then, here is the fetch code =
  const getDataAllProvinsi = () => {
    setIsLoading(true);
    getBuildingOLDallProvinsi()
      .then((resolve) => {
        setDataProvinsi(resolve);
        console.log();
      })
      .catch((reject) => {
        console.log(reject);
      })
      .finally(setIsLoading(false));
  };

  const handleProvinsi = async (index) => {
    try {
      const provinsi = provinsiRef.current[index].dataset.prov;
      setIsLoading(true);
      const result = await getBuildingOLDallKota(provinsi);
      setDataKota(result);
      console.log(result);
    } catch (error) {
      console.log("salah");
    } finally {
      setIsLoading(false);
    }
  };

  const handleKota = async (provinsi, index) => {
    try {
      const kota = kotaRef.current[index].dataset.city;
      setIsLoadingKota(true);
      const result = await getBuildingOLDallKecamatan(provinsi, kota);
      setDataKecamatan(result);
      console.log(result);
    } catch (error) {
      console.log("salah");
    } finally {
      setIsLoadingKota(false);
    }
  };

  const handleKecamatan = async (provinsi, kota, index) => {
    try {
      const kecamatan = kecamatanRef.current[index].dataset.camat;
      setIsLoadingKecamatan(true);
      const result = await getBuildingOLDallKelurahan(
        provinsi,
        kota,
        kecamatan
      );
      setDataKelurahan(result);
      console.log(result);
    } catch (error) {
      console.log("salah");
      console.log(error);
    } finally {
      setIsLoadingKecamatan(false);
    }
  };

  useEffect(() => {
    getDataAllProvinsi();
  }, [dataKota, dataKecamatan, dataKelurahan]);

for a chart like this =
  const colorCode = "#0066FF";
  const colorFont = "#8E9093";
  const state = {
    dataProv: {
      labels: dataProvinsi.map((o) => o.provinsi),
      datasets: [
        {
          fill: true,
          label: null,
          backgroundColor: colorCode,
          borderColor: colorCode,
          borderWidth: 2,
          borderRadius: 12,
          data: dataProvinsi.map((o) => o.total_building),
        },
      ],
    },
    datakota: {
      labels: dataKota.map((o) => o.kota),
      datasets: [
        {
          fill: true,
          label: null,
          backgroundColor: colorCode,
          borderColor: colorCode,
          borderWidth: 2,
          borderRadius: 12,
          data: dataKota.map((o) => o.total_building),
        },
      ],
    },
    options: {
      plugins: {
        legend: {
          display: false,
          labels: {
            font: {
              color: colorFont,
            },
          },
        },
      },
      scales: {
        x: {
          grid: {
            display: false,
          },
          beginAtZero: false,
          ticks: {
            color: colorFont,
          },
        },
        y: {
          grid: {
            display: false,
          },
          beginAtZero: true,
          ticks: {
            color: colorFont,
          },
        },
      },
    },
  };

  const plugins = [
    {
      beforeDraw: function (chart) {
        if (chart.chartArea) {
          let ctx = chart.ctx;
          let chartArea = chart.chartArea;
          let barArray = chart.getDatasetMeta(0).data;

          ctx.fillStyle = "#B2D1FF85";

          for (let i = 0; i < barArray.length; i++) {
            const { x, width } = barArray[i];

            ctx.fillRect(
              x - width / 2,
              chartArea.top,
              width,
              chartArea.bottom - chartArea.top
            );
          }
        }
      },
    },
  ];

for the code to change the data every time the user clicks like this =
  const changeData2 = () => {
    const data = [state.datakota];
    setDataKota(data);
    console.log(data);
  };

and for the Bar itself like this =
<Bar
          type={"bar"}
          height={120}
          data={state.dataProv}
          options={state.options}
          plugins={plugins}
        />

When I execute it in a browser, which initially displays provincial data then I click on the provincial data, nothing happens on the chart. for more details in the video I put the link =
https://va.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_rqe2h1npcr1zb5h2t.mp4
So my question is, is there something wrong with my code so that when the user clicks on the tree menu, nothing happens on the chart? Thank You

Liquitex Residency Program
Liquitex is pleased to announce the launch of an artists' residency series at Manufacturers Village in East Orange, NJ. This is a unique opportunity for multiple artists to work in a private studio space with Liquitex materials, while immersed among a diverse community of over 40 creative makers. Artists are invited to just imagine how far their creativity can go with space, materials, and the freedom and time to express themselves, gain knowledge and make connections in a vibrant collective of artists.
There will be five residencies over the course of 2021, each with a different material as its focus: Acrylic Gouache, Acrylic Mediums, Heavy Body acrylic paint and the full Basics range.
Just Imagine: Acrylic Gouache
For the first residency, one artist will be given use of a studio fully stocked with Liquitex materials of their choice, up to a value of $1500, plus a range of Liquitex Acrylic Gouache colors.
The residency takes place over five-weeks, from March 15 – April 19, 2021, in a bright and airy loft situated within Manufacturers Village, originally an industrial complex built in the 19th century. Liquitex will provide professional development coaching and technical support for any questions about the materials.
With a focus on Liquitex Acrylic Gouache, this residency is particularly suited to an artist wishing to use and experiment with acrylic gouache as a part of their practice.
A jury comprised of London-based artist Rebecca Byrne, New York-based arts writer Brian Boucher and San Francisco-based artist Erik Parra will select the candidate.
The selection will be based on the artistic quality of their work, likely benefit of the residency to the artist, and the artist's interest in engaging with Liquitex materials and embracing the overall residency experience.
Any US-based artist from the greater New York area.
Visual artists, with a minimum active art practice of at least two years.
Artists must not be engaged in another residency during the residency period.
Applicants must agree to regularly share images of work in progress with Liquitex and participate in any photography and films produced by Liquitex during the residency. These images/films may be used in Liquitex digital, print and public platforms, as well as any media channels they choose.
Applicants currently lacking a designated studio for their practice preferred.

Under that program, the NSA has forced American telecommunications providers – like AT&T, Sprint and Verizon – to turn over details about every single call that every single American makes "on an ongoing daily basis". The program is not limited to suspected terrorists, foreign agents or even everyday criminals. The NSA is collecting everything.
Did you call someone today? If so, the NSA has a record of it.
Ending this egregious overreach by the NSA is critical, but it's even more significant than most people realize. Here's why.
The NSA's collection of our phone records is not an isolated program. It represents a truly radical shift in the way the intelligence agencies do business. The government's goal is not just to collect all of our phone records, but, as one former intelligence official admitted, to "collect it all".
The NSA's endgame can be seen in the legal justification it offers for the program now being debated by Congress. The NSA argues that its collection of every American's phone records is constitutional because the agency stores the records in a lockbox and looks at the records only if and when it has a reason to search them. In other words, it claims that the constitution is not concerned with the acquisition of our sensitive data, only with the later searching of it.
This is an extremely dangerous argument. For two centuries, American courts have taken the view that the constitution is concerned with the government's initial intrusion upon privacy, and not only with the later uses to which the government puts the information it has collected. That's why it is unconstitutional for the government, without a warrant, to seize your journal even if it never reads it; to record your phone call even if it never listens to it; or to videotape your bedroom activities even if it never presses play.
It is also the reason that the laws against wiretapping criminalize not only the use of our intercepted communications, but also their interception in the first place. Of course, the government's use of private information may aggravate the unlawful invasion of our privacy. But the constitution protects us from both.
This is as it should be. Even if the NSA isn't reading our every email or listening to our every call, knowing that an analyst might one day pull up our emails or web-browsing history for further scrutiny is chilling. Dissent and debate are stifled by the simple knowledge that our activities and communications are being recorded and archived.
But perhaps the most fundamental problem with the NSA's constitutional theory is that it has no limit. If the constitution is blind to the collection of our data and limits only the NSA's later uses of it, then the NSA truly can "collect it all" now and ask questions later. Our emails, phone calls and internet activities would all be very simple for the NSA to collect under the NSA's theory. But it could go much further. It could put video cameras on every street corner, it could install microphones in every home and it could even remotely copy the contents of every computer hard drive.
Some of this may sound far-fetched today, but the NSA's radical view of the constitution would, if accepted by Congress and the courts, fundamentally transform the relationship between citizen and government.
The vote in Congress Wednesday is an opportunity to reject that myopic view of our privacy rights. The amendment proposed by Congressman Amash wouldn't end all of the NSA's unconstitutional programs; but it would be a start, and it would be an important signal that Congress understands the implications of accepting the arguments that the NSA is now making.


We've captured the ethereal beauty of watercolor paintings in this wondrous display of fresh flowers such as dahlias, Asiatic lilies and ranunculus in glorious shades of pink, orange and yellow. A splendid gift for any occasion. A mix of fresh flowers such as ranunculus, dahlias, Asiatic lilies and alstroemeria in shades of pink, orange and yellow is delivered in a clear glass cylinder vase.
Thank You! The recipient received the flowers today and was very pleased with the arrangement and overall presentation.

Summary (from Goodreads): New York Times bestselling authors Rachel Cohn and David Levithan are back with a life-affirming Christmas romance starring Dash and Lily.
I absolutely cannot wait for The Twelve Days of Dash and Lily! When I read the first book, Dash and Lily's Book of Dares, I adored it, but I was mildly disappointed with the abrupt ending. I freaked out when I heard about the upcoming sequel, and I'm sure that it will be just as incredible as the first book.
Is it bad that I haven't read Dash and Lily's Book of Dares? Oops haha.
Oh right! I heard it was getting a sequel. I haven't read the first book. But now I might.
Oh, how great that there will be a Christmas book! Thanks for the heads up.
I LOVED Dash and Lily, and cannot wait for more of them. SQUEEE!
oh yes this one is a must have for me. I adored the first book.
I have always wondered about Dash and Lily, but I have never read it. With a sequel coming out, I may have to give it a shot. With a book that has this much love for it, I cannot imagine not enjoying it myself!
My sisters keep on insisting that I should read Dash and Lily's Book of Dares, I think now I have a reason that I should too.
