We were referred to Phil Phillips by one of his colleagues at Hayden Outdoors who couldn't meet us when we planned our trip to Colorado to look at land. Phil was immediately attentive to our needs and did his best to show us properties he wasn't familiar with in the Gunnison area. Several properties were unavailable to view, due to road closures for the sage grouse lekking season in May. As the first day wound down, with very little that we could feel good about, he suggested that we come over to the Montrose area and see properties he had listings for that fit our criteria. We met him the next day and after a few viewings, he took us to Log Hill south of Montrose and showed us two properties that immediately got our attention. The first of the two properties was the one that gave us that "a-ha" feeling with a fantastic view of Mt Sneffels and the San Juan Mountains range just 20 miles away. Phil showed us more parcels. After a bite to eat and showing us the nearby towns of Ouray and Ridgway, we all agreed the property with the view and price was speaking to our hearts. We returned to Texas and made an offer on the property. Phil tirelessly worked on our behalf the whole time with counter offers and getting more information about the property. He made an extra effort to get confirmation on the water well status which needed minor repairs to a control box. Phil was in constant contact with us and we closed approximately a month later. We recently visited the property in our RV and are now convinced it is our little piece of heaven on earth. We'll begin developing our plans for a cabin very soon, hoping to build in the next few years. Hayden Outdoors has a great asset in Phil Phillips and we highly recommend him as an experienced and knowledgeable real estate professional who knows land characteristics, property standards, etc. His patience, persistence, likeable character, can do attitude, personable and positive outlook are qualities that will benefit his customers that he serves for Hayden Outdoors.
A native of Colorado, Phil started his outdoor lifestyle early, taking his first buck at age 12 and his first archery buck at 15. He began guiding hunters at age 18, and in his early 20s started Colorado's first Ranching for Wildlife Program for antelope in Moffat County, which he ran for the next 15 years. During this time he was named SCI's North American Bowhunting Outfitter of the Year. While outfitting throughout the state in the 1990s, Phil hung his real estate license in the city of Montrose were he listed and sold properties.
Over the last 15 years Phil has hosted, hunted and guided hunters on outdoor television shows on the Outdoor Channel, Sportsman Channel and the Pursuit Channel. Phil has spent his adult life hunting and leasing land across the Rocky Mountain West and Kansas--experience that has given him a great feel for the value of agricultural, ranch and recreational property. Phil is a life member of the NRA, Safari Club International, the Mule Deer Foundation and the North American Hunting Club. He has taken nearly 50 big game species worldwide, hunted 11 countries and seven Canadian provinces and is extremely well-connected in the outdoor community.
Phil would enjoy talking with you about listing your farm, ranch or recreational property, or, if you are a buyer, helping you to find the recreational property of your dreams. Phil is licensed in Colorado.

Q: How to create a spinning command line cursor? Is there a way to print a spinning cursor in a terminal using Python?

A: Something like this, assuming your terminal handles \b
import sys
import time

def spinning_cursor():
    while True:
        for cursor in '|/-\\':
            yield cursor

spinner = spinning_cursor()
for _ in range(50):
    sys.stdout.write(next(spinner))
    sys.stdout.flush()
    time.sleep(0.1)
    sys.stdout.write('\b')

A: Improved version from @Victor Moyseenko
as the original version had few issues

*

*was leaving spinner's characters after spinning is complete

*and sometimes lead to removing following output's first character too

*avoids a rare race condition by putting threading.Lock() on output

*falls back to simpler output when no tty is available (no spinning)

import sys
import threading
import itertools
import time

class Spinner:

    def __init__(self, message, delay=0.1):
        self.spinner = itertools.cycle(['-', '/', '|', '\\'])
        self.delay = delay
        self.busy = False
        self.spinner_visible = False
        sys.stdout.write(message)

    def write_next(self):
        with self._screen_lock:
            if not self.spinner_visible:
                sys.stdout.write(next(self.spinner))
                self.spinner_visible = True
                sys.stdout.flush()

    def remove_spinner(self, cleanup=False):
        with self._screen_lock:
            if self.spinner_visible:
                sys.stdout.write('\b')
                self.spinner_visible = False
                if cleanup:
                    sys.stdout.write(' ')       # overwrite spinner with blank
                    sys.stdout.write('\r')      # move to next line
                sys.stdout.flush()

    def spinner_task(self):
        while self.busy:
            self.write_next()
            time.sleep(self.delay)
            self.remove_spinner()

    def __enter__(self):
        if sys.stdout.isatty():
            self._screen_lock = threading.Lock()
            self.busy = True
            self.thread = threading.Thread(target=self.spinner_task)
            self.thread.start()

    def __exit__(self, exception, value, tb):
        if sys.stdout.isatty():
            self.busy = False
            self.remove_spinner(cleanup=True)
        else:
            sys.stdout.write('\r')

example of usage of the Spinner class above:

with Spinner("just waiting a bit.. "):

        time.sleep(3)

uploaded code to https://github.com/Tagar/stuff/blob/master/spinner.py

A: Easy to use API (this will run the spinner in a separate thread):
import sys
import time
import threading

class Spinner:
    busy = False
    delay = 0.1

    @staticmethod
    def spinning_cursor():
        while 1:
            for cursor in '|/-\\': yield cursor

    def __init__(self, delay=None):
        self.spinner_generator = self.spinning_cursor()
        if delay and float(delay): self.delay = delay

    def spinner_task(self):
        while self.busy:
            sys.stdout.write(next(self.spinner_generator))
            sys.stdout.flush()
            time.sleep(self.delay)
            sys.stdout.write('\b')
            sys.stdout.flush()

    def __enter__(self):
        self.busy = True
        threading.Thread(target=self.spinner_task).start()

    def __exit__(self, exception, value, tb):
        self.busy = False
        time.sleep(self.delay)
        if exception is not None:
            return False

Now use it in a with block anywhere in the code:
with Spinner():
  # ... some long-running operations
  # time.sleep(3)

A: A nice pythonic way is to use itertools.cycle:
import itertools, sys
spinner = itertools.cycle(['-', '/', '|', '\\'])
while True:
    sys.stdout.write(next(spinner))   # write the next character
    sys.stdout.flush()                # flush stdout buffer (actual character display)
    sys.stdout.write('\b')            # erase the last written char

Also, you might want to use threading to display the spinner during a long function call, as in http://www.interclasse.com/scripts/spin.php

A: Nice, simple, and clean...
while True:
    for i in '|\\-/':
        print('\b' + i, end='')

A: Sure, it's possible. It's just a question of printing the backspace character (\b) in between the four characters that would make the "cursor" look like it's spinning ( -, \, |, /).

A: I have found py-spin package on GitHub. It has many nice spinning Styles. Here are some sample about how to use, Spin1 is the \-/ style:
from __future__ import print_function

import time

from pyspin.spin import make_spin, Spin1

# Choose a spin style and the words when showing the spin.
@make_spin(Spin1, "Downloading...")
def download_video():
    time.sleep(10)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    print("I'm going to download a video, and it'll cost much time.")
    download_video()
    print("Done!")
    time.sleep(0.1)

It is also possible to control the spin manualy:
from __future__ import print_function

import sys
import time

from pyspin.spin import Spin1, Spinner

# Choose a spin style.
spin = Spinner(Spin1)
# Spin it now.
for i in range(50):
    print(u"\r{0}".format(spin.next()), end="")
    sys.stdout.flush()
    time.sleep(0.1)

Other styles in the below gif.

A:
For completeness I want to add the great package halo. It offers a lot of preset spinners and higher level customization options.
Extract from their readme
from halo import Halo

spinner = Halo(text='Loading', spinner='dots')
spinner.start()

# Run time consuming work here
# You can also change properties for spinner as and when you want

spinner.stop()

Alternatively, you can use halo with Python's with statement:
from halo import Halo

with Halo(text='Loading', spinner='dots'):
    # Run time consuming work here

Finally, you can use halo as a decorator:
from halo import Halo

@Halo(text='Loading', spinner='dots')
def long_running_function():
    # Run time consuming work here
    pass

long_running_function()

A: Grab the awesome progressbar module - http://code.google.com/p/python-progressbar/
use RotatingMarker.

A: I built a generic Singleton, shared by the entire application
from itertools import cycle
import threading
import time

class Spinner:
    __default_spinner_symbols_list = ['|-----|', '|#----|', '|-#---|', '|--#--|', '|---#-|', '|----#|']

    def __init__(self, spinner_symbols_list: [str] = None):
        spinner_symbols_list = spinner_symbols_list if spinner_symbols_list else Spinner.__default_spinner_symbols_list
        self.__screen_lock = threading.Event()
        self.__spinner = cycle(spinner_symbols_list)
        self.__stop_event = False
        self.__thread = None

    def get_spin(self):
        return self.__spinner

    def start(self, spinner_message: str):
        self.__stop_event = False
        time.sleep(0.3)

        def run_spinner(message):
            while not self.__stop_event:
                print("\r{message} {spinner}".format(message=message, spinner=next(self.__spinner)), end="")
                time.sleep(0.3)

            self.__screen_lock.set()

        self.__thread = threading.Thread(target=run_spinner, args=(spinner_message,), daemon=True)
        self.__thread.start()

    def stop(self):
        self.__stop_event = True
        if self.__screen_lock.is_set():
            self.__screen_lock.wait()
            self.__screen_lock.clear()
            print("\r", end="")

        print("\r", end="")

if __name__ == '__main__':
    import time
    # Testing
    spinner = Spinner()
    spinner.start("Downloading")
    # Make actions
    time.sleep(5) # Simulate a process
    #
    spinner.stop()

A: You can write '\r\033[K' to clear the current line. And the following is a example modified from @nos.
import sys
import time

def spinning_cursor():
    while True:
        for cursor in '|/-\\':
            yield cursor

spinner = spinning_cursor()

for _ in range(1, 10):
    content = f'\r{next(spinner)} Downloading...'
    print(content, end="")
    time.sleep(0.1)
    print('\r\033[K', end="")

For anyone who interested in nodejs, I also write a nodejs example.
function* makeSpinner(start = 0, end = 100, step = 1) {
  let iterationCount = 0;
  while (true) {
    for (const char of '|/-\\') {
      yield char;
    }
  }
  return iterationCount;
}

async function sleep(seconds) {
  return new Promise((resolve) => {
    setTimeout(resolve, seconds * 1000);
  });
}

(async () => {
  const spinner = makeSpinner();
  for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    content = `\r${spinner.next().value} Downloading...`;
    process.stdout.write(content);
    await sleep(0.1);
    process.stdout.write('\r\033[K');
  }
})();

A: A solution:
import sys
import time

print "processing...\\",
syms = ['\\', '|', '/', '-']
bs = '\b'

for _ in range(10):
    for sym in syms:
        sys.stdout.write("\b%s" % sym)
        sys.stdout.flush()
        time.sleep(.5)

The key is to use the backspace character '\b' and flush stdout.

A: For more advanced console manipulations, on unix you can use the curses python module, and on windows, you can use WConio which provides equivalent functionality of the curses library.

A: curses module. i'd have a look at the addstr() and addch() functions. Never used it though.

A: #!/usr/bin/env python

import sys

chars = '|/-\\'

for i in xrange(1,1000):
    for c in chars:
        sys.stdout.write(c)
        sys.stdout.write('\b')
        sys.stdout.flush()

CAVEATS:
In my experience this doesn't work in all terminals. A more robust way to do this under Unix/Linux, be it more complicated is to use the curses module, which doesn't work under Windows.
You probably want to slow it down some how with actual processing that is going on in the background.

A: import sys
def DrowWaitCursor(counter):
    if counter % 4 == 0:
        print("/",end = "")
    elif counter % 4 == 1:
        print("-",end = "")
    elif counter % 4 == 2:
        print("\\",end = "")
    elif counter % 4 == 3:
        print("|",end = "")
    sys.stdout.flush()
    sys.stdout.write('\b')

This can be also another solution using a function with a parameter.

A: Here ya go - simple and clear.
import sys
import time

idx = 0
cursor = ['|','/','-','\\'] #frames of an animated cursor

while True:
    sys.stdout.write(cursor[idx])
    sys.stdout.write('\b')
    idx = idx + 1

    if idx > 3:
        idx = 0

    time.sleep(.1)

A: Crude but simple solution:
import sys
import time
cursor = ['|','/','-','\\']
for count in range(0,1000):
  sys.stdout.write('\b{}'.format(cursor[count%4]))
  sys.stdout.flush()
  # replace time.sleep() with some logic
  time.sleep(.1)

There are obvious limitations, but again, crude.

A: I propose a solution using decorators
from itertools import cycle
import functools
import threading
import time

def spinner(message, spinner_symbols: list = None):
    spinner_symbols = spinner_symbols or list("|/-\\")
    spinner_symbols = cycle(spinner_symbols)
    global spinner_event
    spinner_event = True

    def start():
        global spinner_event
        while spinner_event:
            symbol = next(spinner_symbols)
            print("\r{message} {symbol}".format(message=message, symbol=symbol), end="")
            time.sleep(0.3)

    def stop():
        global spinner_event
        spinner_event = False
        print("\r", end="")

    def external(fct):
        @functools.wraps(fct)
        def wrapper(*args):
            spinner_thread = threading.Thread(target=start, daemon=True)
            spinner_thread.start()
            result = fct(*args)
            stop()
            spinner_thread.join()

            return result

        return wrapper

    return external

Simple usage
@spinner("Downloading")
def f():
    time.sleep(10)

A: I just started with python about a week ago and found this posting.  I've combined a bit of what I found here with stuff I learned about threads and queues elsewhere to provide a much better implementation in my opinion.  In my solution, writing to the screen is handled by a thread that checks a queue for content.  If that queue has content, the cursor spinning thread knows to stop.  On the flipside, the cursor spinning thread uses a queue as a lock so the printing thread knows not to print until a full pass of the spinner code is complete.  This prevents race conditions and a lot of excess code people are using to keep the console clean.
See below:
import threading, queue, itertools, sys, time # all required for my version of spinner
import datetime #not required for spinning cursor solution, only my example

console_queue = queue.Queue() # this queue should be initialized before functions
screenlock = queue.Queue()    # this queue too...

def main():
    threading.Thread(target=spinner).start()
    threading.Thread(target=consoleprint).start()

    while True:
        # instead of invoking print or stdout.write, we just add items to the console_queue
        # The next three lines are an example of my code in practice.
        time.sleep(.5) # wait half a second
        currenttime = "[" + datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S") + "] "
        console_queue.put(currenttime) # The most important part.  Substitute your print and stdout functions with this.

def spinner(console_queue = console_queue, screenlock = screenlock):
    spinnerlist = itertools.cycle(['|', '/', '-', '\\'])
    while True:
        if console_queue.empty():
            screenlock.put("locked")
            sys.stdout.write(next(spinnerlist))
            sys.stdout.flush()
            sys.stdout.write('\b')
            sys.stdout.flush()
            screenlock.get()
            time.sleep(.1)

def consoleprint(console_queue = console_queue, screenlock = screenlock):
    while True:
        if not console_queue.empty():
            while screenlock.empty() == False:
                time.sleep(.1)
            sys.stdout.flush()
            print(console_queue.get())
            sys.stdout.flush()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Having said all I said and written all I've written, I've only been doing python stuff for a week.  If there are cleaner ways of doing this or I missed some best practices I'd love to learn.  Thanks.

A: Here is the simplest loading spinner for python:
import  time
spin=["loading...... ", "|", "/","-", "\"]
for i in spin:
  print("\b"+i, end=" ")
  time.sleep (0.2)

Output:
loading...... |

A: import requests
import time
import sys

weathercity = input("What city are you in? ")
weather = requests.get('http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q='+weathercity+'&appid=886705b4c1182eb1c69f28eb8c520e20')
url = ('http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q='+weathercity+'&appid=886705b4c1182eb1c69f28eb8c520e20')

def spinning_cursor():
    while True:
        for cursor in '|/-\\':
            yield cursor

data = weather.json()

temp = data['main']['temp']
description = data['weather'][0]['description']
weatherprint ="In {}, it is currently {}°C with {}."
spinner = spinning_cursor()
for _ in range(25):
    sys.stdout.write(next(spinner))
    sys.stdout.flush()
    time.sleep(0.1)
    sys.stdout.write('\b')

convert = int(temp - 273.15)
print(weatherprint.format(weathercity, convert, description))

A: if you wanna python text spinner you can look picture
Simple:print_spinner("Hayatta en hakiki mürşit ilimdir.")

Jim Evans (born July 12, 1948) is a candidate for the United States House of Representatives' 7th Congressional district in Missouri, having run in 2012 and again in 2014, as the Democratic nominee in both elections. He also challenged incumbent Representative Billy Long in the Republican Party primary in 2018. Evans is a retired American businessman, teacher, and U.S. Army veteran.

Biography
Evans was born in Republic, Missouri July 12, 1948, and later graduated from Republic High School in 1966.  From 1970 to 1971, Evans served in the United States Army at Fort Sill, Oklahoma during the Vietnam War as a Pershing missile crewman.  After leaving the Army, he went on to earn a Bachelor's degree in Education and a Master's degree in Mathematics from Southwest Missouri State University (now Missouri State University).  Evans married Teresa D. Posey on January 10, 1972.

In addition to teaching junior high and high school math and computer science at Logan-Rogersville and Springfield public schools, Evans raised beef cattle for ten years and owned a real estate investment and property management business.

Electoral campaign history

2012 election

In the 2012 Missouri 7th district election, Evans, having run unopposed in the Democratic primary, lost the general election against Republican incumbent Billy Long, receiving 30.9% of votes.  Despite the loss, Evans received 98,498 votes—more votes in the general election than any Democratic candidate for the 7th district U.S. House seat since 1992 and the third highest number of votes cast for a 7th district Democratic candidate for Congress in history.

2014 election

On March 20, 2014, Evans officially filed for candidacy in the Missouri 7th district congressional race.  He narrowly defeated millennial candidate Genevieve Williams by a margin of 53.8% to 46.2% in the Democratic primary race on August 5.  Williams subsequently endorsed Evans' candidacy, writing "I am repeating here what I have told Jim many times, he has my full support and I will do everything in my power to help him defeat Billy Long."  Evans  faced Republican incumbent Billy Long in the November 4th general election and lost by a margin of 63% to 29%, with the remaining 8% of votes going to Libertarian candidate Kevin Craig.

2018 election

Evans announced his candidacy on August 3, 2017. He will be challenging Benjamin Holcomb, Lance Norris, and incumbent Representative Billy Long in the Republican primary on August 7.

Political positions
Evans, an independent-minded candidate, described himself as an "Eisenhower Democrat" when announcing his candidacy for the 2014 congressional race, further stating:

Environmental activism
An advocate of minimizing human impact on the environment, Evans favors decreasing reliance on coal and petroleum as energy sources in favor of alternative means.

In 1976, he and his wife built their own energy efficient home outside of Republic, Missouri, complete with 160 square feet of solar thermal collectors on its roof which transfer heat to a 500-gallon tank for water heating.  They later fitted the residence with an array of photovoltaic solar panels in 2010, which produce 128% of the home's energy needs.

COVID-19: Nigerian govt to give one million households N5,000 monthly for six months-- Osinbajo

Vice President Osinbajo says Nigeria deserves social security scheme not just for poverty alleviation, but wealth creation also.
Following the successful activation of the Economic Sustainability Plan's (ESP) Cash Transfer scheme aimed at delivering financial support to at least 1 million urban-based households using technology, the Buhari administration's vision of reducing extreme poverty by lifting at least 20 million Nigerians out of poverty in the next two years is now within reach, according to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
Mr Osinbajo stated this Tuesday in Abuja while flagging-off, virtually, the cash transfer scheme to be facilitated through a wholly technology-based approach called the Rapid Response Register (RRR).
Yemi Osinbajo [PHOTO: TW: @profosinbajo]
RRR is the means by which urban poor and vulnerable population can be speedily identified using geographic satellite technology and other related means for the purposes of delivering cash to households affected by the fallouts of the COVID-19 pandemic in the country.
According to the Vice President "the groundbreaking success of the RRR now emboldens us to achieve our aspiration of a social security programme for a minimum of twenty million Nigerians in the next two years. This will be the largest of its kind on the continent. This (aspiration) is, at least from the perspective of this tested approach, now well within our reach."
"The only constraint, of course, is the funding which we must look for because, this country deserves a social security scheme that will not merely alleviate poverty but also create wealth for the millions of those who are waiting for this opportunity.
"Our government launched the National Social Protection Policy (NSPP) in 2017 to provide the framework for institutionalizing the work we started since 2016 on reducing extreme poverty in Nigeria, based on our administration's vision to create a comprehensive social security programme for the poor and vulnerable and thereafter the pledge to lift 100 million Nigerians out of poverty in ten years."
The Vice President maintained that the launch of the (RRR) social protection method of targeting, which is the first strategy to be developed and tested in the Sub-Saharan Africa region, would enable Nigeria tackle poverty in a more systematic manner, leveraging technology to expand the scope of the interventions.
His words: "As of 31st December 2020, we have identified and registered about 24.3 million poor and vulnerable individuals into the National Social Register; equivalent to about 5.7 million households. Through this project, we are currently injecting about N10 billion directly into the hands of about 2 million poor and vulnerable people every month.
"This is about the largest evidence-based effort by any administration on poverty reduction and its impact on the lives of the poor is huge; by way of improving the livelihoods of the beneficiaries through enhanced household purchasing power; smoothening consumption; increasing savings and acquisition of household assets; and improving the local economy. There are many more ramifications."
Earlier in her remarks, the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Sadiya Farouq, said the initiative would provide a gateway to other important government programmes, adding that Nigeria now has a database for impact tracking and the expansion of social interventions and related programmes, in line with President Muhammadu Buhari's vision of extending financial support to more Nigerians.
She said "By design, this register links to other databases such as banking information of respondents and national identity numbers. It is also a process that is advanced in unifying national databank towards the delivery of social development in Nigeria. There is no doubt that in future, as has been demonstrated in the previous presentation, we would be reverting to the process used here and the register itself, to aid emergency assistance".
On his part, the World Bank Country Director for Nigeria, Subham Chaudhuri commended the Federal Government for the initiative, noting it as a critical component in the country's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. While pledging the support of the World Bank for the project, Mr Chaudhuri emphasized the need for stakeholders to remain transparent in the selection and disbursement of the funds to the beneficiaries.
About 3,115 households received alerts of payments instantly at the flag-off of the project by the Vice President. A total of 1 million households would be impacted directly under the scheme in the next 6 months. Each household already identified will receive N5000 cash transfer from January to June this year.
The Cash Transfer scheme which is part of the ESP is designed to build a shock responsive framework for capturing and registering the urban poor and vulnerable populations across Nigeria. The RRR focuses mainly on the urban poor wards selected using scientifically validated methods of satellite remote sensing technology, machine learning algorithm and big data analysis.
Also present at the event include the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige; the representative of the European Union (EU) mission in Nigeria, Ketil Karlsen, among others.

Lin is very slim, right?
It has something to do with lovesickness which hearts the spleen.
surely, besides the lovesickness, her sadness also hurts the lungs.
she is in a depression for a long period.
of course there is another saying that may be she has the phthisis.
all in all, her body degenerated in the end.
you may have some other thinking while mentioning sadness hurts the lungs.
as mentioned in the book "Su Wen Tiao Jing Lun"
then yin and yang are balanced, the body becomes robust, the nine indicators of the body's pulses will also be concert. this occurs in a normal, healthy person.
what does the ideal realm mean here?
then what does "five kinds of impairments caused by overstrained" in Huangdi Neijing mean?
it means that use your eyes overtime hurts your blood.
but when you take it wrongly, it hurts.
as Sun Simiao says,"if one eat all the five flavors, then he must has a control of not eating too much."
therefore, "a person good at keeping healthy eats while hungry and drink while thirsty"
it may useful to one particular disease, or all kinds of problems, it may coordinate with each other, or opposite, or control each other.
Cheng Jiamo said we should also pay attention to the balance of the medicines.
the key is mean, less is useless, more the medicine will backfire.
such as those for curing flu, you should not brew them too long.
but according to his temperature, he is actually burning up. This is aversion to cold with fever.
the patient will have trouble breathing, but unable to sweat.

The Wellington Experience so far!


Hi. I'm posting on behalf of my little sister. I have searched the forum however nothing seems to fit her problem.
Whilst browsing the internet (IE8), the broadband service failed, unknown at the time, usually it's a blip by our POS router and service resumes as normal after restarting the computer. However this time it recommended a system restore and since my little sister isnt that clued up she selected yes. The restore sequence started and restarted at the end.
Now thats as far as it got. Now when the system boots we just get a mouse pointer in the middle of a blank screen and nothing else happens. We can move the pointer using the mousepad but do nothing else with it.
Can someone please help and suggest a course of action? BTW I must point out that Win7 is an OEM install and we do not have an original installation disk.
When System Restore loads, choose Undo my last restoration and click Next.
Thanks for the reply. I have tried to use Safe Mode to boot the computer but it failed to load in a similar way to as described above.
I hoping to have it fixed by today though. I've just spoken with the store that it was purchased from and they've said although they don't cover software issues, if I do the work myself they are prepared to give me access to an unused identical computer so that I can take a system image to fix my little sister's laptop.
If your sister's computer is 32-bit then go to any 32-bit Win 7 system.
Make a System Repair Disc.
If her computer is set to boot first from CD, then skip the next step which is immediately after powerup start hitting F2 or whatever key Compaq uses to get into the bios and then change the boot order to boot from CD first.
Now and only now, insert the System Repair Disc you made. Do nothing more.
Powerup her system which will now boot from the System Repair Disc.
Now you can use the startup repair features of Win7.
I'll give you some links here for more info.
Installing a system image from another computer is going to cause you far more grief than joy.
We still have many legitimate possibilities.
System Restore is automated in Startup Repair, but try running it separately anyway if it fails to start.
You should be able to run Recovery on that model Compaq by tapping the F11 key at bootup.
Be sure to make your Recovery disks when you get back to desktop, and save a Win7 backup image as a primary backup once you have it set up again as you like.
Hi Guys. Thanks for the responses. I went down to the store we bought the laptop from and burnt a system image from a box-fresh laptop. I think I managed to sell one to a customer whilst I was doing it too.
Just completed the restore on my sis's laptop and it seems to be functioning as normal.
In case you missed it, you can run Recovery on that model Compaq by tapping F11 at bootup. Takes 15 minutes.

Тихо Обретенов е български занаятчия.

Родителите му Обретен и Стамата, се постарават да образоват сина си, доколкото това е било възможно в онази епоха. Тихо Обретенов е знаел писмено български и гръцки език. Наследява занаята на баща си, абаджийството. Става уважаван еснаф, многократно е избиран за църковен и училищен настоятел. Годините след Кримската война бележат началото на връзките му с Георги Раковски. Умира през 1870 година, отровен от съдружника си.

Тихо Обретенов е типичен представител на средната класа българи преди и непосредствено след Кримската война (1853 – 1856), която ще реши Българския църковен въпрос с учредяването на Българската екзархия през 1870 година, а и ще формира поколението, което ще поведе националноосвободителното движение на българския народ.

Жена му Тонка Обретенова става известна в националноосвободителната борба като "баба Тонка". Техните 7 деца, достигнали зряла възраст, са неразривно свързани с националноосвободителните борби на българския народ.
 Атанас (роден 1835 година, наричан "стар иконом" или Барбата) – отговарял е за скривалището в дома им и за пренасянето на оръжие и тайна поща.
 Ангел (1837 – 1894) – участник в четата на Хаджи Димитър и Стефан Караджа (1868), осъден на вечно заточение в крепостта Акия, Палестина).
 Петър (ок. 1840 – 1844 – 1868) – участник във Втора българска легия в Белград, четник в четата на Хаджи Димитър и Стефан Караджа, загива в 4-та битка на четата в местността Канлъдере в землището на село Вишовград.
 Петрана (1842 – 1932) шие знамето на Червеноводската чета (1875 година), което по-късно е използвано от Ботевата чета, и знамето на Сливенската чета (1876 година); пренася тайна поща и оръжение.
 Никола (1849 – 1939) участва в основаването на Русенския частен революционен комитет и в Ботевата чета. През 1876 г. е заловен и осъден на смърт, но присъдата е отменена. След Освобождението е народен представител и кмет на Русе. Умира малко след 90-а си годишнина.
 Георги (след 1849 – 1876) убит е като четник в Сливенска чета на Стоил войвода.
 Анастасия (1860 – 1926) подпомага дейността на братята си, след Освобождението като съпруга на Захари Стоянов редактира неговите произведения.

\section{Introduction}

The importance of magnetic field in astrophysical processes has long been recognised.
Magnetic field is found in all parts of the universe and on all scales: planets, stars, galaxies, accretion disks, etc.
Even in cases where magnetic field was initially deemed too weak to significantly affect plasma dynamics, it has often turned out to be an important factor in the evolution of the system
	\citep[e.g., in accretion disks,][]{1991ApJ...376..214B}.
Nowadays a thriving field of research in astrophysics is centered around the life-cycle of magnetic field.
How is it created?
How does it interact with the plasma it is embedded in?
How is it destroyed?
The diagnosis of magnetic field is now spreading throughout all parts of astrophysics, e.g., Zeeman-Doppler imaging of stars
	\citep{1989A&A...225..456S}
and exoplanets interacting with their host star
	\citep{2003ApJ...597.1092S}.
Indeed, magnetic field has now been inferred to be present or even measured in many astrophysical objects.

Magnetic fields feature perhaps most prominently in solar physics.
The definite discovery that sunspots have strong magnetic fields was made by
	\cite{1908ApJ....28..315H},
who used a primitive spectro-polarimeter to observe circular polarization in spectral lines resulting from the well-known Zeeman effect
	\citep{Zeeman1896}.
A more detailed publication \citep{Zeeman1897} was reproduced in its entirety that same year in The Astrophysical Journal
	\citep{1897ApJ.....5..332Z}.
These discoveries spurred a century of advancement spectroscopy, polarimetry, instrument development, and research of solar magnetism.
It is worth noting that the first detection of widening of spectral lines in sunspots, an effect now unambiguously attributed to magnetism, was first reported by
	\cite{1866RSPS...15..256L},
more than 30~years prior to the laboratory discovery of the Zeeman effect, and shown by
	\cite{Young1883book}
in a graphic illustration of an observation dated back to 1870.
This subject is covered in detail in the excellent review by
	\cite{1996VA.....40..241D}.

On the cutting edge are instruments like the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager
	\citep[HMI,][]{2012SoPh..275..229S}
on the Solar Dynamics Observatory
	\citep[SDO,][]{2012SoPh..275....3P},
which provides us with the full-disk vector magnetic field in the solar photosphere several times per hour,
and the Spectro-Polarimeter (SP) of the Solar Optical Telescope
	\citep[SOT,][]{2008SoPh..249..167T}
of Hinode
	\citep{2007SoPh..243....3K},
which combines unparalleled spatial resolution with high sensitivity to make the most refined measurements of solar photospheric magnetic field to date.

\section{Diagnostics}

Broadly speaking there are two types of diagnostics available to us: qualitative and quantitative.
The magnetogram, neither qualitative nor quantitative, is a popular diagnostic that occupies the space in between.
It is often used because of the difficulties associated with performing quantitative diagnostics.

\subsection{Proxy-magnetometry}

Proxy-magnetometry is the technique of determining the locations of magnetic fields through a change in intensity.
Sunspot maps represent the first application of proxy-magnetometry.
Over half a century prior to the discovery of the magnetic nature of sunspots, the 11-year solar cycle was discovered by
	\cite{1844AN.....21..233S},
who noticed periodic behavior after 17~years of observations.
Sunspots also emerge closer to the equator later in the cycle.
Known as Sp\"orer's Law, this feature of the solar magnetic dynamo was first discovered by
	\cite{1858MNRAS..19....1C}
and is beautifully shown in the Maunder butterfly diagram in \autoref{dewijn:fig:butterfly}.
That sunspots harbor strong magnetic fields led to the discovery that the polarity of sunspot pairs is the same in a given solar hemisphere and opposite in the other during the cycle, and that it reverses from one cycle to the next
	\citep{1919ApJ....49..153H}.
Despite more than a century and a half of study, the solar dynamo remains poorly understood
	\citep[for a review see][]{lrsp-2010-1}.

Proxy-magnetometry has also contributed substantially to the understanding of small-scale magnetic fields.
	\cite{1922MNRAS..82..168H}
noticed that if spots do not appear in bipolar form, they are trailed or preceded by regions permeated by small, localized brightenings called `faculae'.
He found that magnetic fields are also present in those regions, and theorized about the existence of `invisible sunspots'.
	\cite{1967SoPh....1..171S}
first observed small magnetic elements well away from sunspots in the \CaII\ network.
	\cite{1968SoPh....4..142B}
observed the same features in spectra of plage and noted that they were abundant in the vicinity of sunspots, but much more rare in quiet sun.
Observations by
	\cite{1974SoPh...38...43M}
had adequate resolution to resolve the network into strings of small ``bright points'' located in intergranular lanes, that change in shape and size on timescales comparable to the lifetime of granules.
The network had previously been associated with kilogauss field by
	\citep{1973SoPh...32...41S},
suggesting that many of the observed structures were related.
Direct evidence that faculae, gaps, and bright points were all manifestations of the same phenomenon was eventually provided by high-resolution observations, simultaneous in multiple wavelengths, of both disk and limb targets in a study by
	\cite{1981SoPh...69....9W}.
The bright points form a dense pattern in plage and active network, while outside of active regions, they clump in patches that partially outline supergranular cells.

The relative ease of observing magnetic fields via proxy-magnetometry resulted in extensive studies of bright points in the photospheric network.
Imaging in wide-band \CaIIH\ and K or \Halpha\ were the diagnostics of choice, until
	\cite{1984SoPh...94...33M}
switched to using the Fraunhofer G~band around \SI{430.8}{\nano\meter} in order to reduce the effects of chromatism in their telescope.
The blue wavelength of the G~band allows for both high resolution when compared to \Halpha\ as well as good sensitivity of film and silicon detectors when compared to \CaIIH\ and K.
It is still widely used as one of the principal diagnostics for proxy-magnetometry
	(\citealp[e.g.,][]{2005A&A...435..327R,2012ApJ...752...48C};
	and references in \citealp[Sect.~5 of][]{2009SSRv..144..275D}).

The suggestion by
	\cite{1981SoPh...70..207S}
that facular brightness enhancement is the result of radiation escape from hot granular walls was confirmed by 3D MHD simulation by
	\cite{2004ApJ...607L..59K} and
	\cite{2004ApJ...610L.137C}.
They modeled flux tubes, then ``observed'' them as if close to the limb using radiative-transfer codes to calculate the emergent intensity.
Partial evacuation of the flux tube allows the observer to look deeper into the hot granular wall than would be possible if the flux tube were absent.

\articlefigure[width=0.75\textwidth]{proxysample}{dewijn:fig:proxysample}{%

Middle: G-band intensity.
Right: \CaIIH\ intensity.
Bright points in the G~band and in the \CaIIH\ line images correlate well with positions of concentrated field.
The network consists of strings of several adjacent bright points, located in the intergranular lanes.
Bright points in the \CaIIH\ image appear more extended and fuzzy than in the G-band image due to expansion of the flux tube with height.
These images were taken with Hinode/SOT on March~30, 2007, around 00:24:30~UT.
The coordinates indicate distance from sun center, so that $\mu\approx0.88$.
From \cite{2009SSRv..144..275D}.}

\subsection{Magnetograms}

The next step up from proxy-magnetometry is the ``magnetogram'', occupying the space between a qualitative diagnostic like G-band imagery and a quantitative diagnostic such as spectro-polarimetric inversions.
Magnetograms are made using a narrow-band filter combined with a simple polarimeter.
By tuning the filter to the wing of a magnetically sensitive line and observing circular polarization, a measure of the line-of-sight magnetic field is found.
While the measurement is not truly quantitative, it can be calibrated with some accuracy to provide magnetic flux density, i.e., the product of the filling factor and strength of the magnetic field.
Because magnetographs are only sensitive to circular polarization, they only provide a diagnostic to the line-of-sight component of the magnetic field.
\autoref{dewijn:fig:proxysample} displays an example of a magnetogram together with proxy-magnetometry using imaging in the G~band and in the \CaIIH\ line.

Perhaps the best known example of a magnetograph is the Michelson Doppler Imager
	\citep[MDI,][]{1995SoPh..162..129S}
on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory
	\citep[SOHO,][]{1995SoPh..162....1D}.
The uninterrupted, long-duration, and seeing-free MDI observations led to a huge increase in the understanding of, e.g., the formation of the photospheric magnetic network
	\citep{1997ApJ...487..424S} and
dispersal of magnetic flux
	\citep{1999ApJ...511..932H}.

\subsection{Quantitative Measurement}

The advent of the CCD camera for the first time allowed direct digitization of observations and consequent analysis by computers, and as computers became more powerful it became feasible to compute spectral lines based on a polarized radiative transfer calculation.
This development led to the process now commonly referred to as ``inversions''.
It is described in detail in \autoref{dewijn:sec:inversions}.
Simply put, from an observation of a spectral line one can derive the plasma parameters in the region of the solar atmosphere where that line formed.

The instrument of choice for these kinds of measurements is known as a spectro-polarimeter: the combination of a spectrograph and a full-Stokes polarimeter.
The typical layout of such an instrument consists of the telescope feed optics, followed by a polarimetric modulator and a tradition spectrograph.
A polarimetric modulator is a device that alters the polarized light entering the telescope in a known way.
Because detectors are sensitive to intensity only, an `analyzer', typically a linear polarizer, is then used to imprint polarization information into intensity.
Out of at least four independent measurements one can reconstruct the Stokes vector consisting of intensity (I), linear polarization (Q and U), and circular polarization (V).
An example of a spectro-polarimetric observation, taken with the Hinode/SOT Spectro-Polarimeter, is shown in \autoref{dewijn:fig:sp}.
The spectro-polarimeter of
	\cite{1908ApJ....28..315H}
could only modulate Stokes V, and as a result it was only capable of line-of-sight diagnostics.
While modern spectro-polarimeters are significantly more sophisticated than that instrument, the principle of operation remains the same.

The first data to ever be processed with an inversion technique was taken with the Stokes~I spectro-polarimeter developed at the High Altitude Observatory (HAO) and deployed at the Dunn Solar Telescope at Sac Peak.
The success of Stokes~I and its successor Stokes~II led to the development of the Advanced Stokes Polarimeter
	\citep[ASP,][]{1992SPIE.1746...22E}
and many other instruments in the early 1990s, giving scientists a new window on magnetism in the solar photosphere
	\citep[e.g.,][]{1987ApJ...318..930L,1993ApJ...418..928L}.
As an example, the SOT Spectro-Polarimeter on Hinode is a derivative of ASP.

Narrow-band imaging instruments have come a long way since the first birefringent filters were built by
	\cite{1944AnAp....7...31L}.
Some instruments have sufficient spectral resolution that they can be used as true spectro-polarimeters.
Fabry-Perot interferometers
	\citep{1902ApJ....15...73F}
in particular have been very successful
	\citep[e.g.,][]{2008ApJ...689L..69S,2009ApJ...700L.145V,2010A&A...520A.115B,2010ApJ...710.1486J}.
The same computational techniques used with data from spectrographs for the inversion of plasma parameters can be applied to data from these instruments.
The benefit of an imaging spectro-polarimeter is that it samples a 2D region, and usually takes only a few seconds to make a spectral scan.
A slit-scanning spectro-polarimeter must raster to build up an image, a process that can take many minutes.
The slow scanning is traded against high spectral resolution and high sensitivity.

\section{Inversions}\label{dewijn:sec:inversions}

\autoref{dewijn:fig:inversions} shows a schematic overview of the process of spectro-polarimetric inversions.
While this process is called an inversion, it really involves solving the forward problem of synthesizing an observation based on an atmospheric model and external fields, and comparing that synthesis to the actual observations.
The fields and the model are then adjusted until a match is found.

\articlefigure[width=0.75\textwidth]{sp}{dewijn:fig:sp}{Example of spectro-polarimetric data taken by the Hinode/SOT Spectro-Polarimeter instrument on Dec 12 2006 at 11:50:04~UT.
The $X$ position of the slit was \SI{242.5}{\arcsec} W of disk center.
From left to right: intensity (Stokes I), linear polarization (Stokes Q and U), and circular polarization (Stokes V).
Around $Y=-75\si{\arcsec}$ the spectrograph slit crosses a sunspot.
The Zeeman effect causes the intensity profiles to be broadened in the \FeI\ \SI{630.15}{\nano\meter} line and separated into three components in the \FeI\ \SI{630.25}{\nano\meter}.
The blue and red components are circularly polarized in opposite directions, as can be seen in the Stokes V image.}

An atmospheric model is chosen and a guess is made of the external parameters.
The radiation output can be calculated through radiative transfer if the atomic excitation is known.
The atomic excitation, however, relies on a statistical equilibrium calculation that depends on the radiation field.
This loop must be iterated until convergence is reached.
Then, the radiation output can be compared with the observations.
If the quality of the match is found to be insufficient, a new set of parameters must be evaluated, until a set is found that provides a good match.

Many photospheric lines are formed in local thermal equilibrium (LTE), and statistical equilibrium does not need to be considered.
Atomic excitation can be calculated directly from the plasma parameters.
The calculation of the radiation output is fast because the consistency loop is broken.
The simplest so-called `Milne-Eddington' atmosphere, in which the continuum and line source functions are the same and radiative transfer is easy to compute, is commonly used.
Not surprisingly a method by
	\cite{1977SoPh...55...47A}
that used this approximation was the basis for the first applications of inversions of spectro-polarimetric observations
	\citep{1982ApJS...49..293L,1987ApJ...322..473S}.
It remains the workhorse for inversions of photospheric vector magnetic field
	\citep{2011SoPh..273..267B}.
More sophisticated LTE atmospheres may, e.g., derive height dependent information.
They have more parameters than the Milne-Eddington atmosphere and are consequently computationally more expensive.

For lines formed in non-LTE (e.g., those that sample the chromosphere), these approaches are not sufficient.
The full process has to be evaluated, requiring knowledge of the radiation field as well as a time-consuming iteration of the loop to ensure consistency.
However, in some cases it can be assumed that the single-scattering approximation is valid.
If so, the statistical equilibrium calculation does not require the radiation output, breaking the loop and making the problem tractable.

The codes that perform these calculations must find a global minimum in multi-dimensional parameter space that usually has many local minima.
For the simpler atmospheric models, i.e., Milne-Eddington and those using the assumption of LTE, the code will usually start the optimization using a Monte-Carlo method or genetic optimization in order to find the global minimum.
As the solution improves, the code will switch to a derivative-based method to finalize the optimization.
An example of an inversion is shown in \autoref{dewijn:fig:inversion}.

\articlefigure[width=0.75\textwidth]{inversion_process_bw}{dewijn:fig:inversions}{Schematic overview of the process of spectro-polarimetric data inversion.
In dark grey are inputs to the process: the observations that are to be inverted, the atmospheric model chosen by the scientist, and the external fields.
In white are outputs generated by the radiative transfer and statistical equilibrium calculations (light grey).}

For the non-LTE case, even under the assumption of single-scattering, the calculations are typically too costly to use a brute-force approach to find the global minimum, and a smarter approach is called for.
Codes have been developed that find the solution through a technique known as principle component analysis.
A large database of lines is computed for many different parameter sets.
This database is then decomposed into a basis of components called principle components.
Once the database has been computed and the basis has been established, an observed line can be quickly approximated by a linear combination of elements of this basis, thus yielding an inversion of the observation.
This method has been applied successfully to spectro-polarimetric observations of chromospheric structures such as solar prominences
	\citep{2005ApJ...622.1265C},
and active region filaments
	\citep{2009A&A...501.1113K}.

Regardless of the inversion strategy, the nature of the data leaves us with ambiguities.
The \SI{180}{\degree} ambiguity in the determination of the azimuth is well-known.
A number of manual and automatic processes have been developed that attempt to remove this ambiguity by making assumptions about the magnetic field configuration that typically involves minimizing some quantity that depends on the azimuth of the magnetic field, e.g., the vertical gradient of the magnetic pressure.
However, it is known that at least in some areas of the Sun these quantities are not in a minimum state, and so the resolution cannot be expected to yield the correct result.
A good overview of this problem and the performance of several algorithms is given in
	\cite{2006SoPh..237..267M}.

\articlefigure[width=0.75\textwidth]{inversion}{dewijn:fig:inversion}{Example of an inversion of spectro-polarimetric data taken by the Hinode/SOT Spectro-Polarimeter instrument on Dec 12 2006 from 10:10:08~UT to 13:11:18~UT.

\section{Future Developments}

Many instruments now regularly provide us with a measure of the vector magnetic field in the solar photosphere.
The vector magnetic field in the photosphere is determined a few times per hour from full-disk SDO/HMI data.
While such measurements have greatly improved our understanding of the solar atmosphere and Sun-Earth interactions, it is clear that they are not sufficient to resolve a number of long-standing problems, such as coronal heating, the origin of the solar wind, and acceleration of coronal mass ejections.
The key to all these unresolved issues lies with the magnetic field in the chromosphere and the corona.

One can attempt to extrapolate the photospheric field measurements into the chromosphere and corona.
Unfortunately, this process is difficult
\citep[see, e.g.,][]{2009ApJ...696.1780D}.
Potential field extrapolations are clearly incorrect.
More sophisticated methods have been applied with some success, but rely on ``preprocessing'' of the photospheric magnetic field in such a way that the extrapolated field approximates the morphological structure observed in a diagnostic of the chromosphere (typically \Halpha\ or IR \CaII).
A direct measure of the chromospheric vector magnetic and velocity field over the full solar disk is highly desirable to forgo this step, as it provides a true force-free boundary at the base of the heliosphere.

The first successful measurements of coronal magnetic field have been made by
	\cite{2004ApJ...613L.177L}
using a fiber-fed integral-field spectro-polarimeter and by
	\cite{2008SoPh..247..411T}
using the Coronal Multi-channel Polarimeter (CoMP).
All coronal field measurements by necessity employ a coronagraph that blocks out the light from the solar disk.
Consequently it is only possible to determine the magnetic field integrated with some weighing along the line of sight in the plane of the sky.

A number of instruments have been or are currently being developed with the intent of measuring magnetic field in the chromosphere, focusing on four lines that are thought to be the most promising: the IR \CaII\ triplet and \HeI\ \SI{1083.0}{\nano\meter}.
The latter is easier to interpret and has been used with some success to measure magnetic field in prominences, active region filaments, and spicules
	\citep{2005ApJ...622.1265C,2009A&A...501.1113K,2010ApJ...708.1579C}.
However, in quiet sun the line can be three orders of magnitude weaker than in active regions.
The IR \CaII\ triplet at \SIlist{849.8;854.2;866.2}{\nano\meter} is strong everywhere, but suffers in other aspects: the radiative transfer calculations required to model it are difficult, it forms over a broad height range, the lines are spectrally far apart, and \SIlist{849.8;866.2}{\nano\meter} have blends.
However, these four lines are still the most promising ones in the visible and near-infrared spectrum.

The Coronal Solar Magnetism Observatory (COSMO) has been proposed as a facility for synoptic measurements of the chromospheric and coronal magnetic field.
It is to contain a suite of three instruments: a white-light coronagraph for coronal density measurements (under construction), an instrument for chromospheric magnetic field diagnostics (under development), and a large coronagraph for coronal field measurements (in preliminary design phase).

It is also evident from theoretical considerations and simulation alike
	\citep[e.g.,][]{2009Sci...325..171R}
that high-resolution magnetometry is another frontier that must be explored.
Here, we have reached the limit of present-day telescopes.
In the near future results are expected from the \SI{1.6}{\meter} New Solar Telescope at the Big Bear Solar Observatory and the \SI{1.5}{\meter} GREGOR telescope on Tenerife, Spain.
Under construction and development, respectively, are the Advanced Technology Solar Telescope and the European Solar Telescope.
Both will have \SI{4}{\meter} apertures, are designed with polarimetry in mind, and will be outfit with imaging and slit-scanning spectro-polarimeters.

Quarterbacks again go 1-2 in NFL draft
Super Quarterbacks: 12 Great Leaders from NFL History, The NFL at a Glance, Today's NFL: 12 Reasons Fans Follow the Game, Z: Homepage Featured Posts
The NFL Draft is filled with surprises. That was the case again this year when the Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles traded up to grab the top two picks. Both teams went with quarterbacks. The Rams picked Cal's Jared Goff while the Eagles selected Carson Wentz of North Dakota State. It was the second year in a row that quarterbacks were the first two picks in the draft. In 2015, it was Jameis Winston to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Marcus Mariota to the Tennessee Titans. Winston and Mariota both have cemented themselves as starters, and the Rams and Eagles hope for the same out of their latest picks. Goff was a three-year starter at Cal, setting school records for completions, passing yards, and passing touchdowns. Wentz emerged as a top prospect during his senior season at North Dakota State, leading the Bison to their fifth consecutive national championship in the second division of college football. Wentz threw for over 1,600 yards and 17 touchdowns, but his season was cut short due to injury. For the Eagles, it was only the second quarterback they've taken in the first round since 1999, when they chose Donovan McNabb.

Hey there person listening to this song, how are you? How has your day been? Just sitting around? Cool, cool. Well anyway, this is a little random thing I cooked up like 2 years ago and then completely forgot about (I seem to do that a lot). This is kind of a strange song to me now. Especially because there is no real "ending", it just fades out.
Anyway, I'm glad you're listening to this song. You should tell me what you think of it or how to improve it! That would be cool!
this was my very first favorite song on newgrounds, came back for the memories...thank you for giving awesome music...not much else to say...ima go back to the memories now bye.
You have yourself a pleasant day.
This sounds more of a cyborg boss battle, but a very good job indeed!
I would also like some sort of sheet music.
Melody as the right hand.
For piano would be even better.

Zharko Pharma Condemns Russian War in Ukraine
Jun 3, 2022 | Politics
Zharko Pharma announces its condemnation of the war started by the Russian Federation in Ukraine. Zharko approached the owner of its in-licensed intellectual property with the request to stop any patent prosecution in the Russian Federation.
OLYMPIA, WA, June 03, 2022 /24-7PressRelease/ — ZHARKO PHARMA announces its condemnation of the war started by the Russian Federation in Ukraine. While the U.S. Department of the Treasury currently allows patent filing and prosecution in the Russian Federation, including making related payments, ZHARKO PHARMA has made a decision to exclude Russia from its targeted markets. ZHARKO approached the owner of its in-licensed intellectual property with the request to amend the current license agreement and stop patent prosecution in the Russian Federation.
ZHARKO's founder, Prof. (retired) Andrej A. Romanovsky, has always had a firm stance on political issues. In the early post-Soviet years, he published a critical letter on Soviet science in the journal Nature and was called a "new dissident" by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. Later, when he became the Editor-in-Chief of the journal Temperature (Taylor & Francis), he initiated a discussion on the journal's pages of how scientists can promote peace on our planet.
"Over the last decade or so," says Romanovsky, "Russia's foreign policy has become increasingly confrontational. While one may or may not accept the stated goals of this policy, e.g., creating a multipolar world and limiting the eastward expansion of NATO, the current 'special military operation' of Russia in Ukraine is a full-fledged war and an aggression. As such, it constitutes a crime against humanity. No goals, circumstances, or explanations can justify this crime. ZHARKO's officers and shareholders unconditionally condemn the war in Ukraine."

ZHARKO PHARMA is a pharmaceutical startup ("micro-pharma") based in Olympia, Washington. It is working on developing a novel non-hormonal treatment for hot flashes. ZHARKO PHARMA has a world-wide exclusive intellectual property license for the use of a new technology for treating the deleterious feeling of heat discomfort associated with hot flashes. ZHARKO PHARMA is using the accelerated drug development model by repurposing previously developed compounds.

If it's just clever or loud or has all the right software or something, I'm not that interested. I'm looking always for soul. If I'm not moved at that level, if I'm not feeling at some point that it's possible that this could move me to tears or to dancing or to something where I've slightly surrendered to it – if that doesn't happen, it just stays on the shelf. It's an experiment until then.
As applies to comedy: I think that's what the talk about stakes, emotional risks, authenticity, etc. comes down to. The search for soul. That someone is giving themselves to you a little bit.
As I grew older, I understood that instructions came with this voice. And the instructions were these...Never to lament casually. And if one is to express the great inevitable defeat that awaits us all, it must be done within the strict confines of dignity and beauty.
Never lament casually. If you're going to complain, make it beautiful. Part of why I like comedy so much: I think it's the most beautiful way to complain.

Marilynne Robinson has plumbed the human spirit in her renowned novels, including Lila, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award, and Gilead, winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award. In this new essay collection she trains her incisive mind on our modern political climate and the mysteries of faith. Whether she is investigating how the work of great thinkers about America like Emerson and Tocqueville inform our political consciousness or discussing the way that beauty informs and disciplines daily life, Robinson's peerless prose and boundless humanity are on full display. What Are We Doing Here? is a call for Americans to continue the tradition of those great thinkers and to remake American political and cultural life as "deeply impressed by obligation [and as] a great theater of heroic generosity, which, despite all, is sometimes palpable still."
Marilynne Robinson is the author of the novels Lila, Home, Gilead (winner of the Pulitzer Prize), and Housekeeping, and the nonfiction books The Givenness of Things, When I Was a Child I Read Books, Mother Country, The Death of Adam, and Absence of Mind. She lives in Iowa.
