For the better part of a decade, I've done a fair bit of time traveling. Now before you jump to any conclusions and call me crazy, I don't actually think I jumped into a time machine… It only comes with the territory of flying to Australia every year or two for the last eight years. Leaving Australia at 10am on a Saturday and arriving in Los Angeles as 6am on Saturday sounds kind of cool, doesn't it? (Humor me.) Well let me tell you what isn't quite as cool: crossing the international date line with a baby. Holy jet lag, Batman. I am tired! My now 6-month old has reverted back to the sleeping and eating habits of her 3-week old self, and I'm eating like I'm 30 weeks pregnant again. Must eat allll the food at 2 in the morning. Speaking of food, let's talk about what you came here for: my Monday eats! If you're not quite sure what's the deal with all these shenanigans, go take a stroll on over to Peas and Crayons to find out what this WIAW party is all about. [Breakfast #1] The first meal of the day consisted of scrambled egg substitutes with mozzarella and hot sauce and an unpictured naner! [Snack #1] My morning snack was a handful of chips and a healthy serving of salsa. Not your typical morning snack, but I'm not ashamed! [Breakfast #2] Second breakfast was an english muffin with crunch peanut butter on one half and Nutella on the other. I haven't had second breakfast since I was preggo but this silly jet lag has my body all sorts of confused! [Lunch] My mid-day meal was a can of Campbell's Italian wedding soup. I was trying to limit my salt intake to get rid of some of this bloat from vacation, but we were running a little low on lunch foods so I had to make do with what I had! [Snack #2] My second snack of the day was a bag of honey dijon chips. My low salt intake goal for the day went straight out the window after that! [Dinner] My last meal of the day was a simple and easy chicken stir fry we whipped up using my homemade teriyaki sauce recipe. We washed that down with a Healthy Choice fudge bar after dinner! It feels so good to be back into relatively healthier eating habits. Sure I had a few slip ups this week, but who doesn't make a mistake every now and again! On that note, my next meal of the day and a rolling baby awaits me off the internets!
What was your favorite thing that you ate this week?
Mine was definitely our last family dinner last Friday in Australia. It may have just been take-out, but it's the company you keep that counts!
Posted on March 19, 2014 by Tiffany F.
We leave to head back to Boston on Saturday morning, so you better believe we're making the most of our meals to make sure get in more of our favorites before we go. Here's a little sampling of our eats this week!
(1) I had a club sandwich with gherkin and chips for lunch while catching up with friends at the Melbourne Zoo. | (2) I've been drinking boatloads of herbal tea on the daily over the last couple of weeks. When in Rome… | (3) I also had my first beer in over a year since before being pregnant! | (4) Mini Oreo cheesecakes were on the menu for a family get over last weekend. They were just as delicious this time around. | (5) Rice crackers are all the rage over here, so I paired them with baby spinach, cashew, and parmesan dip a few times this week. I'm adding this dip to my list of foods to recreate at home!
(6) More rice crackers for snacks but paired with plain hummus. Yummy! | (7) Rather than spend $5.50 at Gloria Jeans, we decided to recreate the infamous Tim Tam milkshake at home. Way cheaper and much healthier! | (8) I was on my own for lunch one day this week, so I had a ham & cheese sandwich with a side of coleslaw. | (9) Although I wasn't a big fan of cereal in the past, I developed cravings for it while I was pregnant and they never went away in my postpartum days. | (10) I had my first taste of sticky date pudding and holy yum am I glad I tried it!! So tasty. Luckily baking isn't my thing, so I can't make this every weekend!
(11) Nando's is by far my favorite chain here in Australia, so of course I had to have my go-to Nando's favorite: chicken tender wrap with a side salad and I also noshed on Rich's side serve of chips with peri-peri salt. Nommmm!
That's all I have for you this week. This time next week, we'll hopefully be back to our normal healthy eating habits. I wish I could say the same for our sleeping patterns!
Posted on March 12, 2014 by Tiffany F.
Time to set things right with a little recap of what I've been eating during our first week Down Under!
Although I normally wouldn't indulge in food this much, it's been over two years since our last visit so I've been going a bit overboard on tasting my favorites. I had seriously forgotten how ridiculously cheap it was to get sushi here compared to back in America. We bought eleven different hand rolls for $20 to feed four of us. Twenty freakin' dollars for four full bellies! Unreal.
It's been fun enjoying the foods I've missed, but I'm definitely not looking forward to stepping on that scale again once I get home. For now, I'm going to continue to enjoy it because I know I'll have to work hard to undo the damage once I get home.
When you travel, do you tend to indulge in the foods you love and deal with the repercussions later or do you stay on point and enjoy a treat once in awhile?


STEERING STUDENT DEMAND AT LUXURY AUSTIN APARTMENT COMMUNITY.
THE PROJECT: In November 2012, Catalyst acquired Axis West Campus (formerly named Circle West Campus) - the premier student housing property serving University of Texas, Austin. The property consists of 476 Beds, in 167 units, averaging 1,127 SF. Just blocks from UT, Axis West Campus provides a dynamic student lifestyle unmatched by any other asset in the market, with state of the art amenities and floor plans, including beach-entry pool, outdoor sound system, grilling areas, café and study lounge, and an outstanding fitness center. The property also features many energy saving and green building materials. Unit features include 9' ceilings, quartz counters, wood floors and stainless appliances.
THE CATALYST: Upon acquisition, Catalyst renamed the community Axis West Campus to appropriately reflect the contemporary and hip student resident profile. With community renaming, a new logo was developed to re-position brand - logo change necessitated updates to website, all marketing materials, internal and external community signage and promotional items. In effort to utilize creative marketing techniques to attract new residents, Catalyst instituted a new property management team with strong skills in planning student events - with organization of frequent pool parties - and heavily leveraged the power of social media amongst college and young professional target to paint a picture that Axis West Campus is more than an apartment community; it's a social lifestyle.
THE RESULT: Axis West Campus was notably 100% pre-leased for the four-straight-years managed by Catalyst Development Partners. With the right management mix in place at this community, Catalyst Development Partners sold Axis West Campus February 2016.

Q: Remove space between span and text element I'm trying to make a header's background color look like a rectangular speech bubble by adding a text element ◥. Below you can see the spanned text for the background shape and the style for ◥. But this creates a blank space between the bottom of the border and the ◥, and I would like the two to line up in order to look like a speech bubble.
Image of fail in action.
http://i.imgur.com/1T09F.png
{block:Link}

{Name} ☞

◥

{block:Description}{Description}{/block:Description}
{/block:Link}

.triangle{
    margin-left: 10px;
    font-size: 35px;
    color: #123033;
}
span.Headers{
    display: block;
    background-color: #123033;
    padding: 8px
}

I tried the trick with adding a parent group in which the font size is 0, and that didn't work. Nor did setting the margin on the header to 0. Putting the ◥ div on the same line hasn't done anything either. I spent about an hour looking through other questions to see what I could do, and I couldn't find a solution, but I am nub so forgive me if I missed something obvious.

A: It is unreliable to use text to create the effect. Different devices will render it differently, which is not what you want.
In your case, it would be best to use an image with the same colour, placing it in a
 below the heading, ensuring that they touch each other. Then, add some padding on the left, as you did with the .triangle style.
I have created an image for you to use: Grab it here
All in all, your markup would look like this:
HTML:
{block:Link}

{Name} ☞

{block:Description}{Description}{/block:Description}
{/block:Link}

CSS:
div.header > h1 {
    background-color: #123033;
    padding: 8px
}

div.header > div.triangle {
    background: url('Arrow.png') top left no-repeat;
    height: 50px;
    padding-left: 10px
}

Do let me know if this works for you.

A: If you're able to use generated content (which, I suppose, depends on your site's users), then I'd suggest (with the slightly amended HTML for demo purposes):

a name

The following CSS:
h1 {
    display: block;
    position: relative;
    background-color: #ffa;
    padding: 0.5em;
}

h1::after {
    content: '';
    border: 1em solid #ffa;
    position: absolute;
    top: 100%;
    left: 2em;
    border-bottom-color: transparent;
    border-left-color: transparent;
}

JS Fiddle demo.
In terms of compatibility caniuse suggests that generated content is supported in IE from version 8 onwards.

The New Hollywood Guard: Writers
Vanity Fair invited writers from across film and TV to share their stories and speak frankly about the problems plaguing Hollywood. Produced by Vanity Fair with AT&T Hello Lab.
I'm Nigerian and our culture is all about storytelling.
It's like that's how you pass on your history
is through storytelling.
It truly is.
Storytelling is how you become immortal.
[light music]
[chattering]
[clicking]
I've been a writer all my life,
like since I was a little kid.
I was published at age five for writing a story
about how I wanted to be a kangaroo, no big deal.
I would write these little books.
I would illustrate them.
I would plagiarize Nancy Drew a lot.
And [laughs]--
Storytelling was something that I really enjoyed
but I never thought about film or TV as a career.
So I took a playwriting class and the first day,
like a bell went off in my head and it changed my life
and I've been writing ever since.
I was doing a play where I got asked to twerk
in a slave costume and I was like,
Pst, you know what?
That's my line.
Like I think I'm not gonna do this shit anymore.
And in kinda figuring out what I wanted to do
with my life, I started writing this web series.
My very first show was For Your Love.
Orange Is The New Black.
Six Feet Under.
Brown Girls.
The Wood.
So I got interviewed between seasons one and seasons two
and they sent me over the 10 VHS tapes of season one.
Popped em in and just kind of couldn't believe
that I had gotten hired on this show.
I got a call one day that Jenji Kohan
had a new Netflix show.
Netflix was like a DVD company at the time.
I'd never forget my first day in the writer's room.
After it was over, I said to somebody,
They're gonna pay us to do this?
[rapid piano]
I kinda get a little bit weird when people say
diversity in inclusion because I feel like those
are these really mild words that people say
instead of saying we live under white supremacy
and patriarchy.
So when you say diversity and inclusion, you're like,
we should really get some more women behind the camera.
It's like no, it's a state of emergency.
I'm on my eighth TV show and more than likely,
I'm always the only black writer in the room.
Well, we've already got our diversity hire.
That, in and of itself, super racist
because you just start going,
Oh, so there can only be one black person
or one person of color?
Black writers make up three percent of the guild,
three percent!
But people think we're taking their jobs.
What I think is so hard for a lot of show runners
is what they tend to do is model their writer's rooms
after their circle of friends and so, you would see
a lot of white male show runners filling their
writers rooms with writers who would be people
they would hang out with socially, ya know?
So that typically meant other white men.
If you're looking at a room and it's 12 guys named Mike
who are all wearing plaid shirts and Nikes,
you have fucked up.
It's like just be invested in hiring people who
look different from you because those different people
will help your stories be better.
I'd never forget I was in a writer's room
and I was making a really hard pitch
for a character of color in this show.
I was the only person of color in the room
and there was a bit of a resistance, I would say,
and I got really upset and I said,
You guys have to realize when I read a book,
I have to make the character black
because that's the only way I can find myself
way in it, and a lot of them started crying.
They didn't realize that that's my reality that I'm living.
Throughout life, you're seen as the other if you're in
like predominantly white environments.
So, that's kinda like a given.
It's from like kindergarten, you know?
If I had seen someone who looked like me
who wasn't a side kick or ya know, just the butt of a joke,
I think I would've felt relief.
I would have realized, like hey, everything's gonna be okay.
When I was in the process of realizing I was gay,
I couldn't find my story anywhere.
Because I was writing on Orange is the New Black,
I had this platform that most people didn't have.
And I wanted the women who came after me
to be able to find my story.
Stories are such an important part of our culture.
If you don't see yourself in a story,
how are you even real?
As a writer, I definitely feel like I have
the responsibility to tell the stories of people
who don't feel themselves represented onscreen.
I want them to watch my films and walk out feeling
empowered and motivated and validated.
By making life more visible, by making lived experiences
other than your own more visible to ya know,
Y populations, you're essentially dismantling injustice
and making people care in a way that they don't otherwise.
If you have something that can present a new opinion
or present a new perspective
and you can write it well enough,
you can change an entire outlook of a whole community.
I think it's super important in terms of just
creating empathy in the world.
I think a lot of people like to have conversations
around inclusion, multiculturalism, diversity.
The conversations are easy.
You need to have people who can make the decisions
not look like the same white guy.
Ya know, can't be the same guy.
The more Eps and people in power of color,
LGBTQ, ya know, they will then, I think,
help populate the writing community.
Hire people you think are talented.
Hiring people who have quote/unquote never done it before,
just who you think have a voice or who have an eye
and giving them the shot to do it.
The show that I just ran which is called
Tales of the City, I hired an all queer room.
They were incredibly diverse.
Marcus Gardley was in my writer's room.
They were also multigenerational.
There were a lot of identities represented in the room
that now, those are six people,
three of whom who had never been in a writer's room
are now in the system.
Having the support system and I've had great people
around me over the years but not like this.
Nothing like with AT&T is giving me a dose of mentorship.
So to have what I have now, it's the most empowering
moment of my career, definitely.
Mentorship is agency because in this industry,
I feel like you really need to go out and meet people
who will pull you up and give you opportunities
and allow you to take risks and put your work
out in the world.
I think all of us feel this responsibility to keep
pulling people up on the boat and say,
Well, if I'm on the boat, I'm gonna bring people up,
and we can't help.
Ya know, we can't help wanting to pull people in.
My whole thing is mentorship makes you last.
I can't do 12 hours on set in my 70's.
So it's like what is a way that you get to last?
It's by reaching out to the next generation
and helping them move up.
I just really hope that there's more people
telling stories that look like us.
The industry is shifting and there's really
amazing groundswell.
We have this remarkable privilege and platform, right,
so that if we can shift how we do things
and the stories that are being told,
that will trickle down and it will
trickle down fast, I think.

Moldova travel guide. Helping Dreamers Do.
As landlocked Eastern European countries go, Moldova is a pretty laid back affair with vineyards and wine cellars forming as pivotal a part of a Moldova travel guide as Soviet history and the fight for independence. Cities, such Chisinau, are key to unearthing the past with numerous monuments to Lenin and Suvorov expanding understanding as you pause for thought and make the most of your time amongst leafy parks and tree-lined boulevards.
Religion and wine are important pieces in Moldova's cultural jigsaw. Romania and Ukraine influence the borders whilst the capital, Chisinau, completes the centre piece and Transnistria remains lost down the back of the Soviet sofa. Moldova is both intriguing and charming, and although Moldovans are slightly reserved they'll fall over themselves to help you if you're lost or need assistance. Crossing into the Ukraine is very straightforward with no visa or passport controls; however, it would be a shame not to make the most of Moldova with monasteries, such as Orheiul Vechi, and the underground wine cellar at Cricova creating highlights alongside sightseeing in the capital. The forested valleys of Codru Nature Reserve provide natural stomping grounds for outdoor lovers but in the main, Moldova is not a country that will naturally reveal itself so go with an open mind and a Moldova travel guide so as to make the effort to have a really good look.
Read on in our Moldova travel guide.
Eastern Europe's answer to Tuscany in terms of agricultural hillsides and wonderful wine.
A visit to the capital of Moldova, Chisinau, will place you right in the centre of this landlocked country with Romania situated to the west beyond the River Prut and Ukraine arching to the east beyond the self-proclaimed republic of Transnistria, Moldova's second most populous city. Southwest Ukraine has wedged itself in between Moldova and the Black Sea, so although you won't find any Moldovan beaches there are plenty of other sandy options around lakes like Valea Morilor, close to Chisinau, and Lake Beleu, surrounded by a fantastic nature reserve. Moldova's highest peak Balanesti Hill (430m) is around an hour's drive west of the capital; however, it's often the cultural sites of Moldova's northern heavyweight, Balti, that do more to capture the imagination.
Appearing from the hillsides and lakes around the River Răut, Balti is Moldova's northern powerhouse and home to impressive structures, including the beautiful Saint Constantine & Elena Cathedral and the typically Soviet Vasile Alecsandri National Theatre. The central market makes for an authentic glimpse at everyday life surrounded by historic monuments and gruff looking busts dedicated to Moldova's past.
Situated on the banks of the Dniester River, Bender, or Bendery, is Moldova's fourth largest city and features an impressive 16th century Ottoman fortress complete with red tiled turrets and thick stone walls. Formerly known as Tighina, Bender has long been disputed territory and a trip to the memorial park will leave you in no uncertain terms as to how raw the affect still feels to this day.
Moldova's capital is built on the banks of the Bac and features an inordinate amount of orthodox churches including the neoclassical Cathedral of Christ's Nativity. Aside from the ecclesiastical and Soviet architecture, Chisinau's museums exhibit everything from Pushkin to pop art. Other sites, such as the Triumphal Arch and Eternity memorial, appear amongst lake-filled parks and avenues lined with acacia and mulberry.
Much of the limestone used to create the city of Chisinau comes from the nearby landscapes of Cricova and it is these far reaching underground tunnels and hollows that attract visitors from far and wide; not for the historical context as such, but for the wine. Cricova's cellars have been storing wine at a perfect year round temperature since the 50s and are well worth a visit, if only for the underground train ride.
An hour's drive north of Chisinau, overlooking the River Raut, Orheiul Vechi is an archeological site dating back to Paleolithic times featuring an exhibition centre and a cave monastery complete with resident monk. The nearby village of Butuceni has got a rather lovely agro pensiunea (rural guesthouse) that's well worth checking into once you've had your fill of ancient history.
This rebellious breakaway republic still considers itself part of Russia and as such has its own borders as well as an entirely different outlook to the rest of Moldova. Tirasapol, the self-proclaimed capital, is the second most inhabited city in Moldova and bedecked in monuments to the Mother Land with Suvorov, Lenin, a T-34 tank and a Soviet jet standing tall against Kirov Square, Pokrov Church and the imposing parliament building.

Q: GWT Maven integration Can somebody guide me on how to integrate Maven with GWT or point to a good, workable tutorial?
I am using GWT 2.1, Eclipse 3.6 Helios

A: There's a Maven GWT plugin/mojo that you can use along with an archetype that will generate some sample code (which you can get rid of easily). The documentation on the site is fairly decent
http://mojo.codehaus.org/gwt-maven-plugin/
Also, I faced several problems while trying to build a WAR and get it deploy successfully on tomcat. I found this discussion on the forum to be extremely useful. The OP on this even posted a working POM

Q: DSC Push mode - best way to copy DSC resources I'm exploring DSC and wondering what's the best way to copy DSC resources to target host ?
When I try to push my configuration to the target host, It complain of missing DSC resource.
The PowerShell DSC resource xWebAdministration does not exist at the PowerShell module path nor is it registered as a WMI DSC resource.
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (root/Microsoft/...gurationManager:String) [], CimException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : DscResourceNotFound
    + PSComputerName        : server1.appman.net

A: The easiest way to ensure resources are available is to setup a file share based repository for pulling down modules. This blog should help you out http://nanalakshmanan.com/blog/Push-Config-Pull-Module/

A: I tried to install PS modules using DSC. It requires 3 separate configurations:
Configuration InitialConfiguration
{
    Import-DscResource -ModuleName 'PSDesiredStateConfiguration'

    Node MyServer
    {
        Script InstallModule
        {
            SetScript = { Install-Module PackageManagement -MinimumVersion 1.1.7 -Force }
            TestScript = { $version = (Get-Module PackageManagement -ListAvailable).Version; $version.Major -ge 1 -and $version.Minor -ge 1 }
            GetScript = { Get-Module PackageManagement -ListAvailable }
        }
    }
}

Configuration ModulesConfiguration
{
    Import-DscResource -ModuleName 'PackageManagement' -ModuleVersion 1.1.7.0

    Node MyServer
    {
        PackageManagement xWebAdministration
        {
            Name = 'xWebAdministration'
        }
    }
}

Configuration WebServerConfiguration
{
    Import-DscResource –ModuleName 'xWebAdministration'

    Node MyServer
    {
        xWebAppPool SampleAppPool
        {
            Name = 'SampleAppPool'
        }
    }
}

A: Create DSC configuration that will install modules, and modules can be taken from network share or more maybe may check out them from some repository like git but of course if they will have access to it. Push or pull whats better fit You.

Q: Restore Vertical Scroll missing on form after switch to Universal Theme I'm using Oracle 18.c and Apex 19.1.  I recently switched an existing application to Universal Theme.  I noticed that the vertical scrolls were missing from interactive reports and from forms.  I was able to restore the vertical and horizontal scrolls to the Interactive Report by going to Attributes / Heading.  I set the Fixed To = Region and set the Maximum Report Height to 680.  That seems to have fixed the problem with Interactive Reports.
However I still have a problem with Forms.  In Apex I click on the form name, and note that the Appearance / Template is set to Standard and the Appearance / Template Options is set to Use Template Defaults, Scroll - Default.  I can't figure out how to enable the vertical scroll so that users can edit fields on the lower part of the form.
I should add that there is indeed a scroll bar on the form. The scroll bar itself slides up and down, but the body of the screen remains still.

A: I eventually solved the problem.  I built this page from the Interactive Report / Form wizard.  On the region, the Layout / Position defaulted to Breadcrumb Bar.  When I changed the Layout / Position to Body, the scroll bar behaved as expected.

Aquaman is the DC Comics fictional character that will be making his debut in the upcoming Zack Snyder film, Justice League in 2017.
Following that, the character played by Jason Momoa will get his own film that will be directed by none other than Australia's own king-of-horror James Wan.
Wan has catapulted to the top of Hollywood with his work in the horror genre, with films like the Saw series, as well as the Insidious and The Conjuring films.
It's always great to see an Aussie right up there with the best of them in Hollywood, so it's good to know that an Aussie will be directing a massive blockbuster film, and we'll get some industry-love when the film comes here to shoot.
The film is set to partially shoot on the Gold Coast as well as Britain's Leavesden Studios at some stage next year, likely during the Australian summer.
Aquaman is due out for release some time in 2018 and it stars Jason Momoa in the lead, along with Amber Heard, Willem Dafoe and Michael K. Williams.

Kindle Daily Deal: Carbs and Cadavers
(The Supper Club Mysteries)
by J.B. Stanley
-- James "Professor Puff" Henry may as well have "loser" stamped on his forehead. Divorced, overweight, shy, and living at home, he relies on books and his favorite snack -- cheese puffs -- for sweet relief from his problems.
A former English lit professor at William and Mary, he moves back to Quincy's Gap, a small Virginia town in the Shenandoah Valley, to take care of his recently-widowed father.
To improve his social life and waistline, he joins a supper club for dieters who lovingly call themselves the "Flab Five." Avoiding carbs is nearly impossible in this deep-fried potato-loving land, so a mysterious death in their small burg provides an effective, if disturbing, distraction.
While dodging delectable temptations, Professor Henry and his fellow dieters work together to shed pounds and find the killer who has struck fear in this tight-knit community.

Kindle Daily Deal: The Overtaking
(The Overtaking Series)
by Victorine E. Lieske
-- Shayne Barlet has been kidnapped, his powers disabled and his memory altered. He's having a bad day…and he doesn't even know it.
Shayne believes he's living the ideal life.
He attends a great school in the Midwest, gets along with his roommate, and has even met a girl who seems perfect for him.
But it's all a lie.
His girlfriend is deceiving him, his roommate is in on it, and perhaps most unbelievably of all: he's not from Earth. He's not even human…and neither are they.
As he discovers his own buried psychic abilities, Shayne realizes the only truth he's been told is perhaps the most improbable one: his girlfriend, a member of the invasion force, seems to truly love him, even though her actions are rife with deceit.
Shayne soon uncovers a vast conspiracy involving planetary conquest, erased memories, holographic worlds, and dark agendas. He vows to expose the truth, set his people free, and stop The Overtaking…once, and for all.

Have realistic expectations: While I try very hard to only provide links to legitimate offers, sometimes the freebies still don't arrive. This could be because the company did not having a large enough supply to cover the response they got. It is also possible that a spammer has set up a site to gather email addresses (another important reason to use an alternate email account) and never intended to send you a freebie at all. Be aware that this can happen and although I do my best to avoid such sites, it is a part of getting freebies over the Internet.

Q: Use constructor inheritance to provide conversion between sibling types I want to allow the following behaviour:
struct SignalBase {};

struct Signal1 : public SignalBase
{ using SignalBase::SignalBase; };

struct Signal2 : public SignalBase
{ using SignalBase::SignalBase; };

int main()
{
    Signal1 s1;
    Signal2 s2(s1);
}

Of course, that doesn't work since SignalBase has no constructors receiving derived types, and copy constructors are not inherited with the using clause.
I've tried to solve this problem with a template constructor inside SignalBase:
// External function:
template<typename Derived, typename Base>
constexpr bool isDerived()
{
   return std::is_base_of<Base, Derived>::value and
      !std::is_same<Base, Derived>::value;
}

struct SignalBase
{
   template<typename Signal>
   SignalBase(Signal const& s)  // (1)
   { static_assert(isDerived<Signal, SignalBase>(), "Invalid copying"); }
};

Since the constructor (1) cannot be confused with a copy constructor (if I'm not wrong, template constructor are not considered copy constructors, since non-template copy constructor has priority over template constructors if they has the same signature as a copy constructor after instantiated).
So, constructor (1) should be inherited in derived class:
// struct Signal1 inherits:
template<typename Signal>
Signal1(Signal const& s)  // (2)
{ static_assert(isDerived<Signal, SignalBase>(), "Invalid copying"); }

// struct Signal2 inherits:
template<typename Signal>
Signal2(Signal const& s)  // (3)
{ static_assert(isDerived<Signal, SignalBase>(), "Invalid copying"); }

And a line like:
Signal2 s2(s1);

should instantiate (3) with Signal = Signal1, which is a derivate class of Signal and causes no errors due to the static_assert clause.
But this doesn't happen since the compilation error says that no conversion is found from Signal1 to Signal2.
Why isn't the base constructor properly inherited, and what is really being inherited in derived classes?
NOTE: In my real code (not shown in this example for simplicity), the derived signals are templates, and casting operators only works for explicit castings (using the (Type)object operator), which makes lines too long in places where I'm sending objects between functions. That's why I want to search a way to do it by means of constructors.
NOTE 2: Please, focus on the C++ issue problem (which is really being inherited?) and not on other OOP considerations (e.g, does it make sense construct derived objects from base clases?), since this is a very reduced example of my real code.

A: This can be done without templates by adding a second layer of base classes:
class SignalBase
{
    /* all the members */
};

struct CopyableSignalBase : SignalBase
{
    // not actually a copy constructor, so using will pick it up
    CopyableSignalBase(const SignalBase& src) : SignalBase(src) {}

    // make all other (not copy and not default) constructors available too
    using SignalBase::SignalBase;

    // since using doesn't introduce default constructor, provide it
    // if and only if SignalBase had one
    CopyableSignalBase() = default;
};

struct Signal1 : public CopyableSignalBase
{ using CopyableSignalBase::CopyableSignalBase; };

struct Signal2 : public CopyableSignalBase
{ using CopyableSignalBase::CopyableSignalBase; };

Note that Visual Studio cannot handle inheriting constructors at all until VS14, according to this feature matrix.  But the whole question is meaningless without constructor inheritance.

Properties of concern Properties of concern
The 'Properties of concern' section shows ECHA-assigned graphical indicators for certain substance properties that are regarded as being of relevance or importance to human health and/or the environment based on the information provided to the Agency.
Properties of concern are calculated at four "levels" of certainty:
"Recognised" - meaning that the concern is indicated in an official source; either a Harmonised C&L (CLP Regulation Annex VI) or in the Candidate list of substances of very high concern for authorisation (REACH). Recognised concerns are illustrated with a dark red icon.
"Potential" - again comes from official sources only. For (C), (M), and (R) it means that the concern is suspected in a Harmonised C&L (CLP Regulation Annex VI), as Carc. 2, Muta. 2, or Repr. 2. For (PBT) and (ED) Potential means that the concern is under assessment in the PBT or ED assessment list, and the outcome is not "Not PBT" or "Not ED". There are no potential (Ss) or (Sr)s. Potential concerns are illustrated with a light red icon.
"Broad agreement" - comes from data submitted by industry to ECHA, and indicates that the data submitted is aligned, with >= 50% of the data submitters providing the same concern. Broad agreement concerns are illustratated with a solid outlined circle icon.
"Minority position" - comes from data submitted by industry to ECHA, and indicates that the data submitted is not aligned. > 5% and < 50% of the data submitters have provided the concerns indicated at this "level". Minority position concerns are illustrated with a greyed out circle icon.
The following properties of concern are calculated:
Carcinogenic (C) – Recognised carcinogen: comes from a harmonised C&L classifying the substance as Carc. 1A or 1B and/or an entry in the Candidate list. Potential carcinogen: comes from a harmonised C&L classifying the substance as a suspected carcinogen Carc.2. Broad agreement: comes from industry data where a majority of data submitters agree the substance is carcinogenic. Minority position: comes from industry data where a minority of data submitters indicate the substance is carcinogenic. More information about carcinogenicity here.

High school hockey: Section 4A girls tournament…
High school hockey: Section 4A girls tournament won't be replayed
PUBLISHED: February 13, 2014 at 11:01 p.m. | UPDATED: November 3, 2015 at 9:06 p.m.
Despite pleas from several coaches, the Section 4A girls hockey tournament will not be replayed.
The Minnesota State High School League declared St. Paul United the tournament winner when Achiever Academy forfeited the title game over concerns about the eligibility of several players.
MSHSL executive director Dave Stead told the Pioneer Press on Friday that a board policy is in place that a postseason bracket continues in the instance of forfeiture.
"Re-seeding and replaying is something that won't happen," he said.
Some coaches, players and fans in Section 4A were clinging to hopes that the tournament would be replayed after Achiever Academy withdrew before Thursday night's final.
St. Paul United will represent the section at next week's Class A state tournament at the Xcel Energy Center.
"I think bummed would be an understatement right now," said Mahtomedi coach Laura May, whose team lost to Achiever Academy in a sectional semifinal game Tuesday. "We are extremely upset and disappointed. The kids were holding out a small hope. We wanted to believe that the people on top were going to make it right."

Max Holloway responds to Jose Aldo, wants meeting with UFC before agreeing to UFC 208 title fight
By Shaun Al-Shatti@shaunalshatti Dec 13, 2016, 9:00am EST
Max Holloway is done being told what to do.
Holloway captured the interim UFC featherweight title with a sensational victory over Anthony Pettis at UFC 206, then called out UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo, setting the stage for a title unification bout to take place early next year and finally putting Holloway in a position of leverage after unsuccessfully chasing Aldo for the better part of 2016.
Having ignored countless attempts from Holloway to pick a fight, Aldo at last responded to the young Hawaiian on Monday, telling Brazilian media that the bout was already a done deal for Feb. 11 at UFC 208. But Holloway isn't going to jump just because Aldo said so, and he explained on The MMA Hour that he still has plenty he wants to discuss with the UFC before committing pen to paper.
"We got Jose Waldo over here saying Feb. 11. I don't know," Holloway said. "He wants to retire. He wants to be a soccer player. Now he's a f*cking matchmaker. Like I said before, the UFC needs to send his ass to the Cleveland Clinic and check his brain out. They've been sending me a bunch of times and my brain seems fine. I ain't got no problems talking with you guys and doing all this sh*t.
"I said it before, I don't want to give up my Christmas, I don't want to give up my son's birthday on Jan. 4, all for Feb. 11 and the guy doesn't show up. The hashtag 'where's Jose Waldo?' has been working because he's popping off here and there, but we've got to keep on turning the page and keep finding him, so we'll see what happens."
Holloway is unquestionably the featherweight division's hottest fighter. While Aldo clashed with the UFC over Conor McGregor and the state of the featherweight title, Holloway continued to stay busy, racking up a division-best 10-fight win streak that included a staggering five-fight run over Cub Swanson, Charles Oliveira, Jeremy Stephens, Ricardo Lamas, and Pettis.
Through it all, Holloway set new Octagon records for most fights, wins, stoppages, and knockdowns in UFC featherweight history, all at the young age of 25.
Holloway said he now hopes to meet with UFC president Dana White over the Dec. 30 weekend of UFC 207 in Las Vegas to discuss his future, and considering his massive growth both inside and outside of the cage over recent years, he is confident that the greatest chapter of his story is only beginning to be told.
"I'm growing," Holloway said. "I'm only 25. I'm learning, man. And I told you guys, Dec. 10, a star is going to be born. And I think we're taking the right steps to start being born. I said it before and I'll say it again, it's time to flip the channel, man. Come over to CineMax. It's good, Hawaii's warm, hashtag UFC Hawaii, and Team Blessed MMA's got a lot of seats on the train. We're going to ride this train until the wheels fall off.
"If you don't believe in yourself and you're over here trying to beg for other people, 'man, you've got to believe in me' -- nah, that ain't sh*t," Holloway continued. "Because if you're trying to depend on someone else, you're not going to get sh*t done. You've got to believe in your damn self and do the damn thing, so I'm a big believer in self-belief, man, and going out there and working hard and sacrificing. You've got to ooze it. You've got to have this confidence, and I knew I had it."
While the Aldo bout has yet to be made official, Holloway reiterated that it remains the fight he wants most. And once things are finalized, he intends to blaze a path towards becoming one of the biggest stars in the sport.
"I did an interview for MMA Hawaii when I was growing up, and I told them: the guys I want to fight are Anthony Pettis and Jose Aldo," Holloway said. "And look, two of these guys, I got to fight them back-to-back now. I just got to fight Pettis. Now I get the chance to fight Aldo. So I want to fight Aldo.
"Too many guys are over here begging for people and trying to chase people to fight, this and that, begging for money fights. You become your own damn money fight. That's what I plan on trying to do. Like I said, I'm trying to become my own star. I'm trying to make my own money. I don't want a guy to be like, 'look at this, you made this money because of me.' No motherf*cker, I made this money because of my damn self. I'm working hard. I'm putting in the hard work. I'm sacrificing. I ain't asking for no handouts. I'm going to earn everything I'm given."

Catastrophe in Myanmar
by Robert Griffith | Apr 6, 2022
Myanmar's military has destroyed at least 47 churches and more than a dozen affiliated buildings in its attacks in the predominantly Christian states of Chin and Kayah since it staged a coup last February, human rights groups have said. About 35 churches and 15 buildings associated with churches were destroyed in Chin State and about 12 churches were destroyed in Kayah State (formerly known as Karenni) between February 2021 and January 2022, The -Irrawaddy reported, citing the Chin Human Rights Organization and the Karenni Human Rights Group. Christians are a majority in Chin State, which borders India, and make up a substantial part of the population of Kayah State, which borders Thailand. Christians in conflict zones, including these two states, are ethnic minorities who live in the various conflict zones across the country's borders.
Formerly known as Burma, the Southeast Asian country is home to the world's longest Civil War, which began in 1948. The conflict between the country's military, locally known as Tatmadaw, and ethnic minority militias escalated after the military coup on Feb. 1, 2021, as the ethnic militias have been morally supporting pro-democracy protesters. Since late last year, the Buddhist nationalist junta has carried out artillery and airstrikes on civilian areas in Chin State and Kayah State because of strong resistance from local people in those areas, the Irrawaddy said, adding that religious buildings in Christian areas — and Buddhist areas — were targeted because civilians often take shelter in them when clashes erupt.
Most recently, troops from Light Infantry Battalion 266 operating under Hakha-based Tactical Operations Command late last month vandalized and looted Sang Fen Memorial Church in Zokhua Village in Chin State's capital of Hakha, the CHRO reported. On Christmas Eve last year, the military burned alive at least 35 internally displaced people, including elders, women and children, in a village in Kayah State. The KHRG said it discovered the victims' bodies the day after the massacre near the Mo So village of Hpruso town. "We were so shocked at seeing that all the dead bodies were different sizes, including children, women and old people," a commander from the Karenni National Defense Force, one of the largest of several civilian militias opposing the junta, told Reuters at the time.
"I went to see this morning. I saw dead bodies that had been burned, and also the clothes of children and women spread around," a local villager was quoted as saying. They are attacking the churches intentionally to suppress the spirit of Christian people by attacking their sacred churches. I condemn their bad intentions," the Irrawaddy quoted a Karenni Christian leader as saying. Hundreds of thousands of civilians, many of them Christians, have been displaced due to the escalation of conflicts. The presence of the military makes civilians and militias in conflict-ridden states nervous. The military has been accused of vandalizing places of worship and civilians' homes, raping girls and women, abducting civilians to be used for forced labor and shooting civilians to death.
Christians make up just over 7% of the majority-Buddhist nation. Myanmar is ranked No. 12 on Open Doors USA's 2022 World Watch List of 50 countries where Christians face the most severe persecution. The persecution level in Myanmar is "very high" due to Buddhist nationalism. Burma is recognized by the U.S. State Department as a "country of particular concern" for egregious violations of religious liberty.
"The military is notorious for its relations with the ultranationalist ultra-Buddhist group the Ma Ba Tha," ICC's Southeast Asia Regional Manager, Gina Goh, said in a statement earlier. "The military together with Ma Ba Tha (a Buddhist nationalist movement) has targeted the Muslims in the country, but they also go after Christians. Once they get a hold of the power, they might resort to things they were doing before they passed the power to the civilian government. They kill. They rape minority Christians."
Most of us have grown up hearing that "Buddhism is a religion on peace." The catastrophe which has been unfolding in Myanmar in recent days tell a very different story. We all need to praying for the people of Myanmar – especially the Christians at present.

The evolution of Conceptual art began with the experimental Dadaist Marcel Duchamp, whose "Readymade" works redefined the very foundations of art making. The most infamous of these works was the Fountain (1917), a reoriented porcelain urinal, which Duchamp signed and exhibited at the Society of Independent Artists. Detaching his work from the time-honored notion of artistic skill, Duchamp paved the way for Conceptual artists to value the idea above all other components of artwork.

The evolution of Conceptual art began with the experimental Dadaist Marcel Duchamp, whose "Readymade" works redefined the very foundations of art making. The most infamous of these works was the Fountain (1917), a reoriented porcelain urinal, which Duchamp signed and exhibited at the Society of Independent Artists. Detaching his work from the time-honored notion of artistic skill, Duchamp paved the way for Conceptual artists to value the idea above all other components of artwork. While Conceptualism took on on various forms, movements, and mediums throughout its development, the written, imagined and physical work produced from this concept changed the entire course of art history.
While primary exploration of Conceptualism began in the early part of the Twentieth century, the mid-1960s through the mid-1970s saw the greatest rise in the movement. Neo-Dadaists like John Cage, Robert Rauschenberg, and Jasper Johns rallied for idea-based art, and in 1967 Minimalist Sol LeWitt published what many regard as a Conceptualist manifesto, "Paragraphs on Conceptual Art," in which he claimed, "It is the process of conception and realization with which the artist is concerned." In this new ideology, the physical form, expression, and aesthetic of a work were not only discounted—they were considered irrelevant. While most Conceptual artists place concept above object some, like Lawrence Weiner, removed the object completely. In his 1968 "Declaration of Intent," Weiner professed that the act of conceptualizing itself was enough—the act of creation was ideological as opposed to physical. While Conceptual art takes on many forms, such as the cut-up pieces of John Baldessari, the elaborate performances of Marina Abramovic or the high-brow installations of Joseph Kosuth and Walter de Maria, the guiding principles remain the same. Contemporary artists such as Jonathan Monk, Andrea Zittel, Gabriel Orozco, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Jenny Holzer, and Damien Hirst continue to push the boundaries of Conceptualism into the 21st century.

If you marry a child of the devil you will have trouble with your father-in-law.
The above is a bulletin anecdote I thought to be interesting. With the thought in mind, consider: Marriage is the Lord's institution wherein two people become one. If one is a descendant of Satan's ways, a child of God has no earthly idea the struggles he or she will face. Into the marriage one goes with blinders, only to come out scarred and eyes wide-open, but damaged.
The people of Israel did not fully obey the Lord and clear the land of Canaan of the pagans. As a result they intermarried and worshiped their gods.
The Christian's goal is to be fully devoted to God. All entanglements that prevent this are avoided. What does it mean to be unequally yoked? 2 Cor 6.14.
"Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed" (Genesis 2:24-25 NKJV). God created Adam, then Eve, and this was the first and last time that nakedness was of no concern. A hetero-sexual marriage relationship should be so open, a husband and wife "become one flesh." Since sin entered the world, and Adam and Eve were put out of the Garden of Eden, "shame" has always been associated with nakedness outside of marriage. "None of you shall approach anyone who is near of kin to him, to uncover his nakedness: I am the LORD" (Leviticus 18:6 NKJV). God's people sinned, so God would "uncover your skirts over your face, That your shame may appear" (Jeremiah 13:25-26 NKJV). To be naked in public is shameful!
A Catholic nun in Spain has found herself on the receiving end of an on-line petition and death threats from her fellow Catholics due to her "controversial" statements on Mary and Joseph's martial relationship.
God's prophet said it plainly so long ago – the Lord hates divorce (Malachi 2:16).
When people graduate from High School or University, they should be looking ahead at life. Solomon made it simple in Ecclesiastes 9:9-11. Plan to: 1) "Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life"—i.e., be in a close, stable marriage; 2) "Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might"—i.e., work hard at honorable work; 3) "I returned and saw under the sun that-The race is not to the swift, Nor the battle to the strong, Nor bread to the wise, Nor riches to men of understanding, Nor favor to men of skill; But time and chance happen to them all"—i.e., everything is not under our personal control-live with it. One is not alone in marriage; diligent work is rewarded and appreciated; life levels the "playing field" for everyone. Good advice!
Sounds like some advice worth heeding for any culture that's being wrecked with a sell or trade-in mentality towards marriage.
My heart is overflowing with thanksgiving as Douglas and I approach next weekend when we will celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary.
The Bible says "life is a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away." That is the way we feel as we look back on our married years, or even our life in general. I imagine that you feel the same way if you are in the older generation. It may be that you, like I, wonder how Christmas has "slipped up" on us so fast. It seems it comes earlier and earlier every year. A day, a month, a year, yea even a lifetime, is like a vapor that appears for a little while and then "whoosh" and it is gone.
We hear people say, "Oh, if I had my life to live over, I would do so and so," or "If I could go back…" But we can't go back. There is no redoing life. It is a one-time shot, and we have to give it our best to gain the best life here and in the life to come.

Adelaide to Zero Carbon Challenge – $250,000 of funding available
Have an idea to make Adelaide carbon neutral? Submit your idea to get access to $250,000 in funding.
The State Government and Adelaide City Council have a vision for a carbon neutral Adelaide. As a starting point in achieving this ambitious goal, the Adelaide to Zero Carbon Challenge has been launched to kick start the sorts of innovative thinking that will be required for success.
Bike SA is fortunate to be a strategic partner in this process, along with the likes of SA Power Networks, Climate Knowledge Innovation Community Australia, UniSA Centre for Business Growth and the Green Building Council of Australia.
Earlier this week the Premier announced South Australia's Low Carbon Entrepreneur Prize – a sort of 'ideation kick starter'. It offers a prize pool of AUD$250,000 for entrepreneurs to seed great ideas and turn them into viable commercial opportunities that will help Adelaide become the world's first carbon neutral city.
The Prize will help entrepreneurs take their ideas to the next level, to create prototypes and help get these ideas to market. It's all part of a broad vision to position Adelaide as the world's leading city in low carbon economies, to enhance new-economy jobs and industries and export these products and services to the world.
There are four key areas for ideas: Energy, Transport, Waste and Liveability.
As Bike SA is all about getting more bums on bikes, we know that cycling will play a key role in reducing transport emissions. The opportunities to make a significant shift in mode share away from motor vehicles to more active forms of transport (walking and cycling) are immense.
So if you have a ripper of an idea on how to encourage more people to ride their bikes for transport, you could grab a share of the $250K prize.
Entries are open until 30 May via http://adelaidetozero.yoursay.sa.gov.au

Q: iOS Core Data dispatch_async background queuing crash I'm getting a non-reproduceable crash and I'm not sure why. I'm caching images on a background queue. The image names are properties on a Core Data NSManagedObject subclass, CCCard. At the same time, I have a collection view that is also accessing these CCCards.

    // More code that returns the cell.

Here are parts of the stack trace from the Crashlytics report I think are most relevant:

It's frustrating because it never happens during development, so can't test any theories. I'm trying to understand the code and crash report to figure out the problem now. My guess is that it has something to do with faulting because it accesses the CCCard object's instance method, but then crashes when trying to read the property from it. But why?

A: You are violating thread confinement.
Per the Core Data documentation, a NSManagedObjectContext and any NSManagedObject associated with it must only be accessed on the queue that it is assigned to.
Your dispatch_async violates that rule and needs to be corrected.  There is no longer a design where you can use Core Data in a dispatch_async like that.
If you want the processing to be asynchronous then you should spawn a private NSManagedObjectContext that is a child of your main NSManagedObjectContext and then execute a -performBlock: against it. That will give you background processing that is configured properly.
Also, I highly recommend turning on -com.apple.CoreData.ConcurrencyDebug 1 as that will catch issues like this during development.
