We have a diverse workforce who speak many languages including: Hindi, Finnish, Russian, Bulgarian etc. Deciding which languages should cover was a simple conundrum to the in-house legal expert - we only need to cover the languages in which we conduct our business, (in the clients case) namely English, French, German and Japanese.
The stock English dictionary supplied with MIMESweeper contained mainly anatomical parts and the usual canonical profanity. The strategy of this particular stop list seemed to be male, heterosexual, white, American and lower class. I believe this is where the fecund British mind can add value: there are several online dictionaries are sources of expletives and profanity (e.g. The Alternative Dictionaries, Roger's Profanisaurus etc.) Other interesting sources are SMS acryonyms which are increasingly being used by the younger generation. There are even translation sites which can change English into "text speak". and several words used by the slightly more educated such as onanist. In the latter case, it would be hard to argue that any of these words, phrases and acronyms have any place in business communications.
And lastly, once we have our email, we need to be able to analyse it in a way which does not necessarily mean we need to read the contents.

Formally verified computer-assisted mathematical proofs
Séminaire par Assia Mahboubi (Inria, France & VU Amsterdam, Netherlands)
Proof assistants are pieces of software designed for defining formally mathematical objects, statement and proofs. In particular, such a formalization reduces the verification of proofs to a purely mechanical well-formedness check. Since the early 70s, proof assistants have been extensively used for applications in program verification, notably for security-related issues. They have also been used to verify landmark results in mathematics, including theorems with a computational proof, like the Four Colour Theorem (Appel and Haken, 1977) or Hales and Ferguson's proof of the Kepler conjecture (2005). This talk will discuss what are formalized mathematics and formal proofs, and sketch the architecture of modern proof assistants. It will also showcase a few applications in formally verified rigorous computation.
The slides of the talk are available here

Home Headlines & Breaking News Flights Resume At NYC Airports After Snowstorm
Flights Resume At NYC Airports After Snowstorm
New York's airports dug out from under nearly a foot of snow and started letting flights resume Saturday, while Boston's Logan Airport remained closed.
Logan Airport said it expects to open one runway by 11 p.m. Across the region, flights were expected to be back on close to normal schedules on Sunday, though flight-tracking website FlightAware said 115 Sunday flights had been cancelled as of Saturday evening.
Even with flights resuming, the airlines recommended that travelers check their websites before heading out to the airport.
Meanwhile, Amtrak said the New York-Boston train route would remain closed Saturday as crews cleared tracks of snow and fallen trees. Trains were running south from New York, and between New York and Albany.
Airports in the Northeast shut down Friday afternoon as a snowstorm of potentially historic proportions blew in. The storm brought more than 2 feet of snow in some parts of New England and left more than 650,000 homes and businesses without power at its peak.
These days, airlines try to get ahead of big storms by canceling flights in advance. They want to avoid having crews and planes stuck in one area of the country. They also face fines for leaving passengers stuck on a plane for more than three hours under a rule that went into effect in 2010.
FlightAware said airlines have canceled 5,368 flights since Thursday because of the storm. Airlines have waived the usual fees to change tickets for flights in the affected areas.
Hardest hit was United Airlines. It has cancelled 710 Friday, Saturday and Sunday flights, according to FlightAware. That doesn't include regional airlines operating as United Express. The count almost doubles when including those, United spokeswoman Megan McCarthy said.
Delta Air Lines cancelled 1,200 flights, including regional Delta Connection flights operated by partners.
Daniel Baker, CEO of FlightAware, noted that the timing of this storm worked in the airlines' favor.
"Fortunately, Saturday is the lightest travel day of the week, so airlines can use the day to restart their operations in time for the Sunday evening travel rush," Baker said earlier as airlines were starting their cancellations.
Still, the storm disrupted thousands of travelers.
Denny Lindersson, a tourist from Sweden, was making his way across New York City with his family on Saturday morning after spending the night at a hotel close to Kennedy Airport. Their Saturday morning flight to the Cayman Islands was cancelled. JetBlue Airways re-booked them for a Monday flight, but rather than wait, the Linderssons bought new tickets on a flight from Newark Airport in New Jersey on Saturday afternoon.
"JetBlue didn't pay for anything," he grumbled, also noting that Sweden's biggest airport would not have shut down because of 11 inches of snow.
Several professional and college sports teams were stranded by the storm. The NBA's New York Knicks were stuck in Minnesota after playing the Timberwolves on Friday night. The San Antonio Spurs stayed overnight in Detroit, as they awaited word on flying to New York for their game Sunday night with the Brooklyn Nets.

The FMSQ supports Bill 44
Montreal, September 3, 2015 – Invited to the individual consultations and public audiences of the Committee on Health and Social Services regarding Bill 44, An Act to bolster tobacco control, the Fédération des médecins spécialistes du Québec (FMSQ) is entirely in favour of this piece of legislation which aims at improving the environment for all people, from the youngest on up. Bill 44 is a natural step in the logical evolution and necessary adaptation of the law, and meets the principal expectations of medical specialists.
"With the various additions and safeguards that are proposed today and that meet in large part the demands expressed by various groups, including medical specialists, almost all the aspects not previously covered by the Bill now are. By betting on effective strategies, these measures will in particular reduce the inequalities of health which often start at a very young age. Over close to 20 years, the stakes for public health represented by the fight against tobacco use have transcended partisan politics, and have resulted in all political parties supporting the pieces of legislation aimed at fighting this scourge. We hope for the same unanimous support for this Bill," declared Dr Diane Francœur, President of the FMSQ.
Judging that action is needed on all fronts to avoid the potential limits of the legislation, the FMSQ set out certain recommendations and observations in its white paper. It sincerely hopes that these will allow parliamentarians to improve the Bill so as to encourage its rapid adoption. In particular, the FMSQ proposes that :
the Bill also target public parks and children's playgrounds, thus sending a clear message regarding exposure to tobacco smoke and smoking behaviour in front of children;
the Government extend the duration of the ban to all hours, in the buildings and grounds of all schools, including CEGEPs. This same extension to an all-hour ban, and not simply during opening hours, should also apply to home childcare centres in all the rooms frequented by children;
a complete ban on smoking apply to the personnel and visitors over the entire grounds of health and social services establishments;
the Government set up a fund, entirely dedicated to the fight against tobacco use, made up of a significant portion of its revenues from taxing tobacco; and, that the sums deposited in this fund be used to adequately finance a policy of prevention and support to stop tobacco use;
the MSSS issue clear recommendations on the measures to be implemented in school or community environments within its future plan to prevent tobacco use by youngsters in Quebec; and, that the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux (MSSS) work in close cooperation with the Ministère de l'Éducation, du Loisir et du Sport (MELS), in particular to define the extent and the applicable program, on the understanding that special attention must be paid to schools located in disadvantaged neighbourhoods, areas which are thought to be more conducive to initiating the use of tobacco;
the Government take advantage of youth centres by giving them the mandate to prevent the use of tobacco and to quit using tobacco; and, that these youth centres be subject to the provisions of the Act;
the Government of Quebec, the Government of Canada and Health Canada agree to clarify the definition that is presently attached to the electronic cigarette; and, that the Governments agree to tighten the rules regarding the sale and distribution of solutions containing nicotine;
epidemiological studies be undertaken without delay to measure the impact of the electronic cigarette on the health of consumers.
In addition to these recommendations, the FMSQ is also in favour of adopting rules that aim to make the packaging of these products neutral and standardized as well as rules that aim at standardizing the graphic aspects of the packaging regarding warnings, as these elements are not a part of the current Bill.
Finally, the FMSQ's suggestion to parliamentarians is to reflect on the opportunity of including in the Bill currently in question a provision regarding the implementation and deployment in all healthcare facilities in Quebec of a program to halt tobacco use. It also invites them to look over the current parameters of the program that reimburses anti-smoking products, whose current coverage period of 12 weeks for each twelve months is considered limited.
The Fédération des médecins spécialistes du Québec represents more than 10,000 medical specialists certified in one of the 53 recognized medical specialties.

Automotive Interiors Expo Novi: Multiple launches from leading suppliers
By Anthony James on	 October 25, 2019 Automotive Interiors Expo, News
This week's Automotive Interiors Expo in Novi has just closed – with visitors enjoying more new product launches than ever before.
Over 110 exhibitors presented their latest innovations and manufacturing solutions to help enhance and upgrade existing and future car programs. Headline exhibitors included BASF, Dupont, Grupo Antolin, Juki America, MacDermid Enthone, Recticel and Velcro, to name just a few.
Visitors were able to see, touch and feel a wide range of fabrics, acoustical materials, shape-forming materials and foams, fasteners and adhesive systems, lighting and more. Read all the latest show news, here.
New conference
This year's show also saw the launch of a brand new conference: The Future of Automotive Interiors featured speakers from organizations such as Renault-Nissan, Continental and Tech Mahindra, who identified and discussed the trends and technologies shaping current and near-future automotive interiors.
Noteworthy speakers included: Joseph Simpson, senior design strategist, Volvo Cars; Bruce Mehler, research scientist, MIT; Dr Vyacheslav Birman, an expert from Continental; Dr Wolfgang Stolzmann, lead engineer and consultant ADAS, CMORE Automotive GmbH; and Dr Rose Ryntz, president/Carbon Advisory Board member, Ryntz & Associates LLC.
Carsten Astheimer, CEO of Astheimer Design, presented a case study of a recent project for which his company designed a concept for an executive autonomous vehicle:. "We spoke to a number of different executives and asked them what they needed from an autonomous vehicle. As with the beginning of the automobile, one of the first commercial applications for AVs will likely be executive travel. Executive will be an area where there's a premium that allows for a return on investment."
He outlined his vision for such a vehicle: "It should be like a 'first-class pod'. We're taking a lot of references from other areas, so it would be like a first-class seating environment in an aircraft, so when you go from one to the other, you get that seamless driving experience."
In total, delegates enjoyed presentations from over 40 speakers at the conference, which featured papers dedicated to the study of future interior design, innovative seating, lighting, ergonomics, instrumentation, control systems, new HMI approaches, in-car entertainment and connectivity, onboard wellness and safety challenges, as well as the opportunities and challenges offered by increased vehicle autonomy and ever more sophisticated consumers.
A full review will follow, next week.
With over 20 years experience in editorial management and content creation for multiple, market-leading titles at UKi Media & Events (publisher of Automotive Interiors World), one of the UK's fastest growing publishing companies, Anthony has written articles and news covering everything from aircraft, airports and cars, to cruise ships, trains, trucks and even tires!

Today I'm happy to ship version 0.4.0 of my CloudFormation tool Formica. While it isn't 1.0 yet because I want to include a few more features before that it is definitely production ready. I'm using it for all of my work and consulting.
I started building Formica because I missed a great CloudFormation client that doesn't introduce any further abstractions on top of CloudFormation, but has great UX. While for some use cases tools that add a little bit of abstraction on top of AWS can be helpful, e.g. managing an AWS API Gateway, too often we simply need a great UX to work with the abstractions AWS already provides and introducing more just makes our tooling more complex than it needs to be.
At the same time CloudFormation needs a way to make template files more modular, so Formica allows you to split your one template file into multipe files. These files will then be combined and deployed. Deployment always goes through ChangeSets so you can see exactly what is about to happen when you deploy.
To increase modularity Formica even lets you pack modules into subfolders so you can share templates between projects through e.g. Git Submodules. This increases modularity and reuse, while staying close to the CloudFormation syntax.
And on top of that it includes jinja2 as a templating mechanism to be able to do a few dynamic things in your templates as well.
You can install formica with pip install formica-cli.
Formica works with any existing CloudFormation stack. You can copy the deployed template into a file named stack.template.json and in the same folder the file is in run formica template to see the template Formica picked up. It supports yaml or json, you can even mix them in the same folder.
Check out the Quick Start Guide for more info on how to deploy and change your stack with Formica.
The Documentation will give you an in-depth view into all the features. Also check out all existing commands as they might help you in your day to day development.
0.4.0 introduces a new formica diff command. While you could describe the ChangeSet in past versions and see what would happen once deployed, the ChangeSet doesn't give you a complete diff between your deployed and new template.
This makes sure you always know 100% what is going to change in your infrastructure and there are no surprises.
Formica now supports all CloudFormation function short codes, leading to considerably shorter template files. Check out the CF Intrinsic Functions docs for more details.
In the past Formica exited with a failure when the template that was to be deployed didn't contain any changes. Starting with 0.4.0 it will print a No changes Found message and exit with exit code 0. This makes it possible to include Formica in build scripts that don't contain changes everytime.
In my opinion Serverless infrastructure specifically, but developing in the Cloud generally, depends on great tooling. AWS and other cloud providers are constantly introducing more abstractions on top of pure computing services. To get the most out of those high level services we need tools that stick to those abstractions, but improve on their existing UX.
Formica and other tools I've released or will release in the future are steps to make sure we have those kinds of tools. I will talk a little more about the tooling issue and how we have to work with existing abstractions in a future post and at ServerlessConf Austin in late April. If you have thoughts and want to chat about that ping me!

AHL Playoffs: Tangradi scores 1st career playoff goal in game 2 loss
Saturday, April 17, 2010 / by William DePaoli / / farm report, Inside Access, Wilkes Barre / 0 comments
Albany takes 2-0 series lead
Jamie McBain scored a late third period goal as the Albany River Rats defeated the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins by a score of 3-2 on Friday night at the Times Union Center to take a 2-0 series lead in the best-of-seven East Division Semifinals.
The series now shifts to Wilkes Barre for games 3 and 4 on Sunday and Tuesday.
The Penguins who entered the series as under-dogs got a strong game from top prospect Eric Tangradi who according to sources could be added to the Penguins playoff roster as early as Wednesday, if Wilkes Barre is eliminated.
Tangradi opened the scoring for Wilkes Barre off a strong cycle with teammate Joe Vitale and a mis-cue defensively by the River Rats as Tangradi was left all alone just inside the right face-off circle, beating netminder Justin Peters with a backhand goal to give Wilkes Barre a 1-0 first period lead.
It was Tangradi's first career playoff goal as the young forward is having a strong second half of the season. Tangradi had a goal and a team-high plus-2 rating on the night.
Wilkes Barre fell behind 2-1, until Konstantin Pushkarev scored the game-tying goal with 5:10 remaining but the River Rats quickly responded as McBain scored just a 1:08 later to give Albany a 3-2 lead.
John Curry made 29 saves in the loss. Curry got the start as Brad Thiessen was recalled to Pittsburgh.
Game 3 is Sunday at 3:05 p.m.

=========

Module manifest files belong in this directory.

`init.pp` defines how the module will carry out its tasks in this file.

Add additional definitions in this directory. Their file paths should match the
definition name; for example, a definition `mydefinition`, defined like this:

    # Definition: mydefinition
    #
    # This is the mydefinition in the mymodule module.
    #
    # Parameters:
    #
    # Actions:
    #

Q: Capture logs for a duration I'm trying to capture logs for a set period, parse it and produce a report. Here's what I do
(tail -F log_file | grep --line-buffered some_text | awk '{process lines} END {produce report}') & pid=$! && disown
sleep 60
pkill -TERM -P $pid
kill -TERM $pid

Explanation:

*

*tail a log file and pipe to grep, awk to process and produce report at END. Run these in a command group (within ())

*Wait 60 seconds

*kill the children of the process group (tail, grep, awk)

*kill the command group

Now the problem is when awk is killed it won't write the report (complete the END part)! What am I doing wrong here? Can you suggest a workaround?

A: You already explained your problem.  "When Awk is killed, it won't write the report."
The proper solution is to only kill tail and then wait for the rest of the pipeline to finish.
If your tail supports the --pid= argument, that's easy -- just start a sentinel sleep process in the background, run for as long as you need to, kill the sentinel, wait for tail to exit.  Or use the sleep 60 you are already using; just start it before the tail pipeline instead.
sleep 60 &
zzz=$!
tail -F log_file --pid=$zzz | awk '/some_text/ {process lines} END {produce report}'
wait $zzz

(Note also the refactoring to lose the useless grep | awk.)
If it doesn't, things easily get a lot more involved.  I can imagine that it might be possible by setting a clever trap in the subshell, but I would probably simply write a short Python or Perl wrapper with a signal handler to write the report when terminated.

Q: Hiding keyboard when clear button is pressed in UITextField Is there any way to hide the keyboard when a clear button of UITextField is pressed?

A: Yes, there is, although I suspect that doing so would violate the Apple Human Interface Guidelines.
To do so, add the following method to your view controller's implementation file. Then make the view controller into your textfield's delegate.
- (BOOL) textFieldShouldClear:(UITextField *)textField{
    [textField resignFirstResponder];
    return YES;
}

The downside to this approach is if you ever want to prevent the textfield from clearing, your code becomes messy. Instead you might try to define a custom method and then connect it to the valueDidChange method and check for an empty value.
-(IBAction)hideKeyboardFromTextField:(id)sender{
  //TODO: Check if the previous value was longer than one character to differentiate
  //between backspace and clear.

  //check if the editing caused the box to be empty
  if([[sender value] isEqualToString:@""] || [sender value] == nil)
    [sender resignFirstResponder];
  }
}

The problem here is that you can't easily differentiate between a tap on the clear button and a tap on the delete button when there is one character in the UITextField.
As I said in the beginning of my answer, this is not advisable in the first place and as the answers here have shown, it is not so easy to implement. I don't think it's worth the hassle, considering the difficulty involved and the fact that it doesn't result in optimal user experience.

A: Yep. Call resignFirstResponder on the text field in the delegate's textFieldShouldClear: method.

A: This code is definitely working for me to hide the key board while clearing out the content of the textfield
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldClear:(UITextField *)textField
{
    textField.text = @"";
    return NO;
}

A: In UITextFieldDelegate

- (BOOL)textFieldShouldClear:(UITextField *)textField {
    [textField resignFirstResponder];
    return YES;
}

But there is a problem with this. From the manual, "The text field calls this method in response to the user pressing the built-in clear button. (This button is not shown by default but can be enabled by changing the value in the clearButtonMode property of the text field.) This method is also called when editing begins and the clearsOnBeginEditing property of the text field is set to YES."
Note that, this method is called when editing begins if clearsOnBeginEditing is set to YES. So if you call resignFirstResponder in this method then editing will not begin actually. So you need to set clearsOnBeginEditing to NO. Obviously then the text field won't be cleared when editing begins.
Another IMPORTANT matter not directly related to the question. Hiding the keypad after tapping clear button is not a familiar behavior and Apple does NOT like changing the behavior of standard items. You may get a rejection for this.

A: Try this code:
[TextField performSelector:@selector(resignFirstResponder) withObject:nil afterDelay:0.1];

A: For Swift
In your UITextFieldDelegate
func textFieldShouldClear(_ textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
    textField.resignFirstResponse()
    return true
}

Hood By Air has its first menswear show in Paris and opens an e-commerce site.
There's something triumphant about New York brand Hood By Air staging their latest show in Paris—romantic shades of The Battles of Versailles fashion show come to mind—and the antique brown halls of old France only put into relief how fresh Shayne Oliver's latest collection is: mixed in with some updates of the classic graphic HBA tees and oxfords are some truly progressive takes on denim (thigh cut-outs!) and zippers galore (one pair of pants seems to have pockets and slits every three inches). There's also the brand's first foray into shoes, a chunky take on platformed club kid Timbs and Matrix boots that we're hoping will soon be available at their first-ever official online store, which launched this weekend and surely has HBA groupies drooling. It's high times for Hood By Air.

Waking Up to Empire and "False Flags"
By Barry Kissin
Theme: US NATO War Agenda
In the June 18 Frederick News-Post, page A1, from The Associated Press:
"It appears as if Iran has begun its own maximum pressure campaign on the world. … The development follows apparent attacks last week in the Strait of Hormuz on [two] oil tankers, assaults that Washington has blamed on Iran. While Iran has denied being involved, it laid mines in the 1980s targeting oil tankers around the narrow mouth of the Persian Gulf through which a fifth of the world's crude oil passes."
This is pro-war propaganda — once again part of a campaign to justify American aggression, echoing Pompeo's determination within hours of the attacks that Iran was responsible. Evidence ignored by the AP (and still by Pompeo) includes the statement by the Japanese owner of one of the tankers that the U.S. is wrong about the way the attack was carried out, that his ship was attacked on the starboard side by a flying object, not by a mine or torpedo. David Stockman, former director of management and budget under Reagan, posts at antiwar.com: "You can virtually bet when the dust settles [these tanker assaults] are false flags … manufactured pretexts for war."
Until now, most Americans have been insulated from the ramifications of our Global War on Terror. That drastically changes in the event of a war with Iran. We are running out of places to blow up short of igniting global collapse — from which none are insulated except perhaps members of our ruling class of warmongers.
There is a ray of hope that Americans are finally wising up. A few elements in mainstream media are picking up on it. I have demonstrated in many previous letters and op-eds that both of our mainstream political parties are fully supportive of our militarism and our empire. There are very few exceptions, such as Republican Sen. Rand Paul and his father, Ron Paul, who have consistently opposed our Global War on Terror and confronted the litany of lies (pretexts).
In general, though, it is the Republican Party and its supporters who most consistently appear to approve on mindless patriotic grounds our every aggression and war crime. (You know, the "pro-life" crowd.) And so I am choosing a Fox News broadcast to illustrate how the run-up to war with Iran is being questioned even in the mainstream.
On June 13, Tucker Carlson interviewed a pollster from the Eurasia Group Foundation who reported that 80 percent of Americans want a "diplomatic solution" to our conflict with Iran, and that of the remaining 20 percent, a majority believed "Iran had a right to have nuclear weapons" as a "deterrent," leaving a mere 8 percent who favored "launching some sort of preventive war on Iran."
Tucker then comments that "this is one of those topics, foreign policy more broadly, war in the Middle East specifically, that proceeds really with no reference at all to what the American public wants. That's not how a democracy is supposed to operate, is it?"
No — that's how an empire operates, based not on what the public wants but on what its ruling class wants, which includes the owners of mainstream media and the principals in our military-industrial-intelligence complex.
Everybody knows that Congress has been complicit in all of this.
The loudest people in Congress righteously demand more interventions, more war, greater military and black ops budgets. We have no visible champions of peace, the only way out of the swirling whirlpool we are in.
Before I focus on the performance of our Reps. David Trone and Jamie Raskin, I do want to give credit to Sens. Ben Cardin and Chris Van Hollen for co-sponsoring S1039, the Prevention of Unconstitutional War With Iran Act of 2019. Of the eight Maryland representatives in the House, only Raskin is a co-sponsor of the equivalent legislation in the House.
Raskin's father was the well-known scholar and activist Marcus Raskin, co-founder of the Institute of Policy Studies, whose obituary for Marcus highlighted:
"[Marcus] coined the term 'national security state.' In congressional testimony in 1967, he used the phrase to describe the complex web of war institutions he feared would drive continuous conflict abroad while turning the United States into a 'garrison and launching pad for nuclear war.' … In his final weeks, Marc Raskin was excited to learn about plans for a Poor People's Campaign that, like his own work, will take on the inter-connected problems of the War Economy, poverty, racism, and ecological devastation."
There is no one in Congress who understands the depravities of American empire better than Jamie Raskin. It is incumbent upon him to become more vocal, more opposed, and not just along party lines.
Trone needs to bone up, maybe get his colleague Raskin to open up about all this. Trone also needs help from his constituents regarding foreign policy, war and peace, national security state expenditures (annually about $1 trillion — that's 1,000 billion dollars). It is troubling that Trone is one of the first freshman members of Congress to sign up for this summer's trip to Israel sponsored by AIPAC, the right-wing Israeli lobby, that incessantly advocates (along with Netanyahu) for aggression against Iran.
It will not do to rely on the patriotic myth that American soldiers and special operatives fight for freedom and democracy all across the world. Quite the opposite. They fight for a corrupt, power-mad and cruel empire.
The American people are waking up. So must Congress.

I am delighted by the spotlight you shine on the subject by making this link between school and industry. It highlights the importance of the subject with regard to futures in engineering as well as many other related fields. Being given this opportunity can be a definite 'game changer' in the future thinking of these pupils which is fantastic!
Thank you for your enthusiasm and support shown for our pupils yesterday. They came away with huge smiles, full of confidence and self esteem, far beyond what can be achieved in the classroom!
On behalf of the school and students I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and all the sponsors for an amazing day. It was lovely to have the various sponsors at the ceremony. They were very kind and encouraging to the students and I will do my best to get involved again next year even if it means running an after school club.
Thank you for the lovely prizes for the students and the school. The resources online were extremely valuable in helping to deliver the project.


NEW YORK, N.Y. – The UMBC track and field teams returned to New York for the second straight week, this time competing in the Lafayette/Rider Winter Games, in preparation for next week's America East Indoor Championships.
Once again, the Retrievers had a record setting day in the throw events. For the second straight week, senior Aaron Brooks (Upper Marlboro, Md./DeMatha) broke his own school record in the shot put. Finishing fourth in the event, Brooks furthered his personal-best and UMBC record with a toss of 16.31m (53' 6.25").
Also, junior Cameron McDearmon (Owings Mills, Md./Franklin)broke the school record and placed second in the weight throw. McDearmon's throw of 18.83m (61' 9.5") bested the previous mark set by Mike Zyvolski back in 2006.
The Retriever women also dominated the throwing events at the Winter Games, with junior Amanda Deller (Aberdeen, Md./Aberdeen) and Chrissy Robinson (Lusby, Md./Patuxent) going one-two in the shot put, with both setting personal bests in the event. Deller's toss of 14.96m (49' 1.75") puts her second on UMBC's all-time list, while Robinson jumps to third with her toss of 14.07m (46' 2"). Also, Monica Hagenauer (Schnecksville, Pa./Parkland) placed tenth with a personal-best throw of 11.52m (37' 9.5").
Deller also finished fourth in the weight throw (15.36m, 50' 4.75).
Freshman Mercedes Jackson (Huntingtown, Md./Huntingtown) continued her impressive rookie campaign, picking up her fifth win of the year in the 60m dash (7.51). Ebonique Jones gave UMBC another top-five finish, placing fourth (7.74) in the event.
In addition, several of the Retriever men runners placed in the top-ten while setting their names in the school record book. Josh Hewitson (New Market, Md./Linganore) won the 500m event with a time of 1:04.39. Meanwhile, in 1000m run, Scott Heydrick (Ellicott City, Md.) placed third at the Winter Games and in the UMBC record book, completing the race in 2:28.75.
The Retrievers also finished well in the women's mid-distance runs with Deborah Adelola (Lanham, Md./Bladensburg) placing third in the 500m (1:16.41) and Paulette Fogle (Washington, D.C./Bishop McNamara) (58.60) and Cody Mezebish (Westminster, Md./South Carroll) (2:18.58) finishing fourth in the 400m and 800m runs, respectively.
Mo Drammeh (Frederick, Md./Thomas Johnson) and Shioma Obemeata (New Rochelle, N.Y./Iona Preparatory/St. Francis) also claimed silver at the games in the high jump and triple jump, respectively. Drammeh placed second with jump of 1.99m (6' 6.25") and Obemeata was just off the pace in the triple jump with his leap of 14.52m (47' 7.75").
UMBC's track and field teams now heads to Boston next weekend to participate in the 2012 America East Indoor Championships held at the Boston University Track and Tennis Center. The two-day event starts on Fri. Feb. 17 and finishes the next day, Sat. Feb. 18.

Q: Invoke dynamic object's method How can I invoke/call an object's method from another object method when both objects are created dynamically?
The situation is as follows:
I have two objects created dynamically each object correspond to a different class
objA
   Method1A()
objB
   Method1B()

I want to call objA's method1A() from objB's method1B().
How can I accomplish that  / what approach do you recommended ?

A: In order to invoke an instance method on some type you need an instance of that type. So if Method1B is supposed to invoke an instance method on objA you could pass this instance as parameter to the method:
public void Method1B(ObjA objA)
{
    objA.Method1A();
}

A: If it is possible that "objA is created after objB" then you have a cycle. You can't solve that with separate assemblies now, except when you can avoid cyclic declarations; then you can compile one assembly without the cyclic call, and then recompile with it, after the other assemblies have been built. You could try the same here, but unless you know the cycles and where you can temporarily break them, you have some analysis to do.
Note this question asks for and gets approaches similar to mine for cyclic dependencies between normal assemblies.


True to size, somewhat narrow at the fron, but this will be wider after wearing. Due to the platform the heel seems to be higher then it is, the real height of the heels are: platform - heel!

Sorry, Monsanto: GMO Crops Now Banned in Nearly 40 Countries, Grown in Just 28
by AltHealth Admin | April 21, 2016
As Monsanto is fighting to gain seed control of the whole world of agriculture by spreading genetically-modified crops across the world (with the support of the U.S. government according to Wikileaks), there is far greater opposition from the rest of the world, where many countries are not only labeling GMOs but also banning their cultivation altogether.
We know GMOs are not widely accepted across the world, but which countries have backed up their concerns about the safety of GMOs with bans? — Sustainable Pulse, a GMO news source, decided to research.
In these 38 countries, GM crops are banned on the government level, with the backing of the country's scientists, doctors, and environmental agencies.
Monsanto has long claimed that "science" is on its side as if the GMO-Free and organic movements are stocked with uneducated zealots — but that couldn't be farther from the truth. Bans on GMOs are commonplace around the world, the website's research has found.
In Europe 28 countries have banned GM crops:
The list of countries with some sort of ban on GM crops is as follows:
Azerbaijan, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Moldova, the Netherlands, Northern Ireland, Norway, Poland, Russia, Scotland, Serbia, Slovenia, Switzerland, Ukraine, and Wales.
Green: countries with national ban of GMOs, Yellow: countries with national moratorium, Orange: countries with no ban. Source
Countries that are a part of the European Union had an option to opt-out from growing GM crops through a European Commission rule passed in March 2015. The ban was especially aimed at Monsanto's corn MON 810, since other varieties of corn or other plants are widely rejected across Europe.
In the Americas 4 countries have bans in place:
Belize, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela.
There are also 4 countries in Asia who have banned GM crops:
Bhutan, Kyrgyzstan, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey.
And two countries in Africa who have done the same are:
Algeria and Madagascar.
Links to detailed reports on each country are available on Sustainable Pulse.
Currently there are 28 countries that grow GM crops:
The USA is the biggest grower with 73.1 million hectares of maize, soybean, cotton, canola, sugarbeet, alfalfa, papaya, squash (See how one former president gave Monsanto a free pass to allow this; click here)
The second biggest is Brazil with 42.2 million hectares of soybean, maize, and cotton. They are followed by Argentina with 24.3 million hectares of the same crops, Canada with 11.6 million hectares or canola, maize, soybean, sugarbeet, and India with 11.6 million hectares of cotton.
One hectare is a metric unit of square measure and is about 2.47 acres.
Countries that grow GMO foods by year and amount of hectares. Source
Other countries growing GM crops are: Australia, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Burkina Faso, Chile, China (where numbers are relatively small and a showdown is brewing over the issue), Columbia, Costa Rica (which has made recent efforts to become GM free), Cuba (which has mostly resisted U.S. pressure to forge deals for using more GM seeds, however) Czech Republic, Honduras, Mexico, Myanmar, Pakistan, Paraguay, Philippines, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, South Africa, Spain, Sudan, and Uruguay.
Of course, it's well worth noting that there are now more countries banning the cultivation of GMOs than actually growing them.
And just to add insult to injury, they were also banned in Scotland, the home country of Monsanto's founder Hugh Grant. It doesn't sound a whole lot like this technology is "feeding the world" now, does it?
FINALLY! Closely guarded secrets of the world's biggest environmental disaster in the history of mankind are revealed. Watch FREE 9-part documentary "GMOs Revealed."

Abstract. For the first time the systems of cities in seven countries or regions among the largest in the world are made comparable through the building of spatio-temporally standardised statistical databases. We first explain the concept of a generic evolutionary urban unit ("city") and its necessary adaptations to the information provided by each national statistical system. Second, the hierarchical structure and the urban growth process are compared at macro-scale for the seven countries with reference to Zipf's and Gibrat's model: in agreement with an evolutionary theory of urban systems, large similarities shape the hierarchical structure and growth processes in BRICS countries as well as in Europe and United States, despite their positions at different stages in the urban transition that explain some structural peculiarities. Third, the individual trajectories of some10,000 cities are mapped at micro-scale following a cluster analysis of their evolution over the last fifty years. A few common principles extracted from the evolutionary theory of urban systems can explain the diversity of these trajectories, including a specific pattern in their geographical repartition in the Chinese case. We conclude that the observations at macro-level when summarized as stylised facts can help in designing simulation models of urban systems whereas the urban trajectories identified at mico-level are consistent enough for constituting the basis of plausible future population projections.
A new GeoDiverCity Working Paper entitled "Multilevel comparison of large urban systems" is now online here.

Silencing the music of the spheres
Galileo by Bertolt Brecht
Jennifer Rohn 12 November 2006
Face off: science versus the church
What would my people say if I told them that they happen to be on a small knob of stone twisting endlessly through the void round a second-rate star, just one among myriads?
It is a measure of our times that a play first published in 1940 about a scientist born in 1564, back when people still thought the solar system was encased in crystal spheres, could still feel as fresh as if it were written yesterday. The popularity of Howard Davies' adaptation, which just finished a sold-out four-month run at the Olivier National Theatre in London, is a testimony to its modern relevance. Yet Galileo, the play, has been an adaptable creature. Bertolt Brecht's response to the fascist oppression of Nazi Germany was reworked several times thereafter to reflect his changing world views, while the version at the London National Theatre was based chiefly on David Hare's more accessible 1994 adaptation. The sense of timeliness is enhanced by characters sporting modern dress and speaking in crisp vernacular.
The Olivier Theatre is a particularly apt venue: the audience, hanging in the dark, lurks over the stage like heavenly bodies peering down into the center of the universe as the concentric circles of the rotating stages move like orbiting planets or the shifting of primitive gears. The play opens with a disillusioned Galileo Galilei (Simon Russell Beale) forced to tutor bored students at the University of Padua and to invent silly gadgets to finance his independent experimentation – and his taste for good food and fine wine. When one Dutch student tells him of the latest craze in Amsterdam, a "queer tube" which magnifies things, the clever inventor quickly knocks up a vastly superior prototype and peddles it as his own invention.
Expecting only handy cash for his troubles, Galileo gets far more than he bargains for with his telescope: a clear view of the moons of Jupiter transiting in and out of view as they orbit the red giant. The conclusion is inescapable: nothing encased in a crystal sphere – as Aristotle dictated and as the Catholic Church endorsed at the time – could possibly exhibit such three-dimensional behavior. Galileo turns the telescope on the earth's moon and the Milky Way and deduces a similar forbidden truth: that Copernicus' theory of a heliocentric solar system is borne out by observation. These scenes of discovery are electrifying: imagine being the first person to gaze at close range upon other objects in the solar system. Imagine being the first person to prove that centuries of belief were completely wrong – imagine being the first person to prove that the earth is not the center of the universe, set there for God to keep an eye on His creation, but is instead one of millions of bodies, lost and lonely in a vast space.
When a concerned friend reminds Galileo that Copernicus's champion Giordano Bruno was burnt at the stake for suggesting as much, the irascible, irrepressible Galileo rebuts that Bruno would not have been martyred if he'd had proper evidence for his claims. In the black-and-white world of the scientific method, which Galileo is said to have fathered, false dogma dissolves in the face of empirical truth. Here, we see the blinkered arrogance that even today doesn't sit too well with non-scientists: the stubbornness of the sort of scientist who cannot comprehend that everyone else does not necessarily embrace rationality as a matter of course. According to Galileo's calculus, faced with the irrefutable evidence, the Church should simply change its views. But it is not that easy – something Galileo's friends, and the audience, can easily see.
And it comes to pass: in a wonderful scene, Galileo invites the leading scholars of Florence to peer into his telescope for the ultimate proof that Aristotle was wrong; but the men refuse to even look, instead making patronizing speeches why the telescope could not possibly show any such thing. The Church is even less impressed – though their own astronomer declares Galileo's calculations to be correct, the Pope forbids Galileo to make the matter public. This is an interesting Church in many respects; its purveyors are scientifically educated and do not deny the evidence; they do not even force Galileo to stop his work. Instead, a bargain is struck: just don't make a fuss, and things can go on as before. If it weren't for constant underlying sinister presence of the Inquisition and its instruments of torture, this congenial papacy might even seem more enlightened than the one we have today.
By far the most interesting minor character is a mathematically minded monk whose impassioned scientific curiosity attracts him irresistibly to Galileo and his ideas. In a powerful and affecting scene, the monk tells Galileo why he's swearing off astronomy forever:
As I study the phases of Venus I can visualize my parents sitting round the fire with my sister, eating their curdled cheese. I see the beams above them, blackened by hundreds of years of smoke, and I see every detail of their old worn hands and the little spoons they are holding. They are badly off, but even their misfortunes imply a certain order. There are so many cycles, ranging from washing the floor, through the seasons of the olive crop to the paying of taxes. There is a regularity about the disasters that befall them. … They draw the strength they need to carry their baskets sweating up the stony tracks, to bear children and even to eat, from the feeling of stability and necessity that comes of looking at the soil, at the annual greening of the trees and at the little church, and of listening to the bible passages read there every Sunday. They have been assured that God's eye is always on them – probingly, even anxiously – : that the whole drama of the world is constructed around them so that they, the performers, may prove themselves in their greater or lesser roles.
What would my people say if I told them that they happen to be on a small knob of stone twisting endlessly through the void round a second-rate star, just one among myriads? What would be the value or necessity then of so much patience, such understanding of their own poverty? What would be the use of Holy Scripture, which has explained and justified it all – the sweat, the patience, the hunger, the submissiveness – and now turns out to be full of errors? No: I can see their eyes wavering, I can see them letting their spoons drop, I can see how betrayed and deceived they will feel. So nobody's eye is on us, they'll say. Have we got to look after ourselves, old, uneducated and worn-out as we are? The only part anybody has devised for us is this wretched, earthly one, to be played out on a tiny star wholly dependent on others, with nothing revolving round it. Our poverty has no meaning: hunger is no trial of strength, it's merely not having eaten: effort is no virtue, it's just bending and carrying. Can you see now why I read into the Holy Congregations decree a noble motherly compassion; a vast goodness of soul?
Galileo retorts that his family is hungry because the Church does not provide for them, and that the beauty of science cannot be marred by lies – again exhibiting a scientist's blindness to the real-world effects of his art. Producing a new mathematical proof that the moon causes the ocean's tides, Galileo expertly exploits the monk's curiosity to bring him back to the fold.
In the end, however, a new Pope comes to power, the Church runs out of patience and Galileo is forced to recant. The mere sight of the instruments of torture is all that is necessary for him to renounce his life's work and publicly declare that the sun revolves around the earth. Reviled by his scientific colleagues as a traitor and a coward, and interred by the Church under house arrest, Galileo shrinks to a blind, hunchbacked wreck. In the end, confronted by a former pupil, he explains why scientific truth was in the end not as important as saving his hide. Science is not faith, we are told: you don't need to die for your beliefs – because the truth is there whether you believe it or not.

Return to pre-pandemic business travel levels 'not desirable'
By Andy Hoskins / 27 April 2021 / Contact Reporter
Nearly two-thirds of business travel managers believe that 'travel returning to pre-pandemic levels is not desirable', according to research revealed by the ITM today at its Revive virtual conference.
The evidence that suggests business travel is encountering an identity crisis is mounting, with speaker Kelly Beaver, manager of public affairs at Ipsos Mori, additionally citing research that showed 65 per cent of CEOs believe videoconferencing could mean staff will no longer need to travel internationally in the next two to three years.
In addition, 50 per cent of CEOs believe it's possible videoconferencing will eradicate the need for domestic business travel, said Beaver.
Meanwhile, 71 per cent of ITM survey respondents said client-facing meetings would not be replaced permanently by virtual alternatives.
While the adoption of videoconferencing is playing a key role in forecasting future travel volumes, sustainability concerns and an acceptance that there was 'over-consumption' of business travel have also been aired.
Seventy-one per cent of respondents in ITM's research said the importance of sustainability to their organisation had grown in the last year (compared to 37 per cent a year ago), and 64 per cent say suppliers who have similar targets in place are likely to be at an advantage when seeking corporate agreements.
Worryingly, however, 75 per cent of respondents in ITM's research did not know what percentage of their organisation's overall emissions are associated with business travel.
Four in ten buyers have taken on sustainability responsibilities since Covid struck, and two-thirds say increased focus in this area has helped them showcase the value of the travel function.
On a personal level, the proportion of travel managers feeling the pressure to justify their role within their organisations is 36 per cent, down from 47 per cent a year earlier.
"Although there's no room for complacency, this is heartening to see," said Alison Rogan, ITM chair and head of travel and expense at Barclays. "This is partly because travel buyers are now often required to add expertise in reporting new metrics – focusing on risk associated with Covid and sustainability initiatives – to their list of superpowers."
The survey also indicated that buyers' expectation of business travel recovery has been pushed back, with a quarter saying they expect business travel volumes to have reached 25 per cent of pre-pandemic levels by Q3 and 41 per cent naming Q4.
ITM's report was based on the views of 123 travel managers who were surveyed in the first two weeks of April.

Step aside Bob McDonnell, you and your tax-hiking, burden-shifting transportation-funding package. Make way for Dickie Bell, R-Staunton, who has introduced what may prove to be the most audacious piece of legislation of the 2013 General Assembly session — a bill to create a state virtual school organized as a free-standing statewide school division. Among other virtues, his proposal won't raise taxes!
Under HB 1555, the state would establish the Virginia State Virtual School "in order to provide full-time online educational programs and services to school-age persons in the Commonwealth." The school division would be subject to the requirements of the Standards of Quality and would be required to submit an annual report to the General Assembly, although contracts with online providers would be exempt from state public procurement laws.

Akan Datang: our contributors' take on the stories to watch in Southeast Asia this week, curated by Regional Editor Aisyah Llewellyn.
Hello New Naratif readers!
Another new week looms on the horizon and we have all the news you need to watch. We have a high profile death in Thailand, demonstrations sweeping across Indonesia, and the weaponisation of technology against the LGBTQ community in Malaysia. Over in Singapore, last week was one of the deadliest weeks in recent memory, as the country executed four men in a single week.
Over at New Naratif, we started the week with this piece on the rise and fall of print media in Thailand, and then followed up with this article on Singapore's urban poor. On the topic of Singapore, we also have a new episode of fortnightly podcast series Political Agenda which takes a look at Singapore's hawker centres.
We also have a new episode of our current affairs podcast, Southeast Asia Dispatches, coming out on Monday which features an examination of the palm oil industry in Malaysia; a profile of up-and-coming hip-hop stars who rap about life in Thailand's slums; an interview with an artist sent to jail for his performance art piece in Singapore; and an op-ed from one of our contributors who co-wrote this story on Indonesia's notorious blasphemy law. So keep an eye out for it: you can follow the show on Spotify or subscribe on iTunes.
Here are all the stories to watch in Southeast Asia this week…
We start this week in Malaysia, and our West Malaysia editor Pauline Wong has this update:
This week, we're delving into technology in Malaysia. As the world takes great leaps forward in using technology for the betterment of humanity, Malaysia decides to use mankind's greatest invention to… cure gay people?
The minister in charge of Islamic Affairs, Datuk Seri Mujahid Yusof Rawa, announced in Parliament that the Islamic Development Department Malaysia (Jakim) published an e-book aimed at aiding homosexual Muslims to "return to the right path".
The e-book is conspicuously titled "Penghijrahan Diri Menuju Jalan Yang Benar—Strategi Untuk Mengatasi Masalah Homoseks", or translated to English as "Journey Towards the Right Path—A Strategy to Overcome the Problem of Homosexuality."
This is not the Malaysian government's first (nor we suspect, the last) attempt to rehabilitate the LGBT community from their "ways".
Some years ago, the government attempted to publish a helpful "guide" to identifying gay men which includes the donning of v-neck t-shirts and carrying handbags.
Perhaps the government should publish an e-book for the rehabilitation of corrupt officials, instead.
I could be wrong, but I strongly suspect that may be a far more beneficial use of technology.
We also published this piece on the weaponising of science as part of Malaysia's LGBTQ research in both English, Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Malaysia back in July this year.
Although this didn't actually happen in Thailand, there's some sad news emerging that Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, a prominent Thai businessman, is believed to have died in a helicopter crash in the United Kingdom. Srivaddhanaprabha, the chairman of Leicester City Football Club, is thought to have been aboard the helicopter when it took off from King Power Stadium following a match on Saturday evening.
According to the Guardian, "Srivaddhanaprabha began his business journey by opening a duty free shop in Bangkok in 1989. His retail company, King Power, grew to prominence in Thailand and he is ranked as the fifth richest person in the country, with an empire worth £3.8bn."
We expect to hear more about this story, and the cause of the crash, in the coming week.
Over in Indonesia, we've seen a number of demonstrations across the country in the last few days over the burning of a flag belonging to banned Islamist group Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia (HTI) by members of Indonesia's largest Muslim organisation Nahdlatul Ulama. While the group is banned and thought to want to establish a Muslim caliphate in Indonesia which would bring the country under sharia law, the "problem" is that the flag features the shahada which is the declaration of belief in Islam, Allah and the Prophet Muhammad.
Protests have stretched from Aceh in North Sumatra down through the provincial capital of Medan and into Java, with a demonstration in Jakarta thought to have been attended by thousands of protesters. As ever, the issue is that burning a tauhid flag could be seen as blasphemous, and Indonesia has seen a number of high profile blasphemy cases sweeping the nation lately.
I feel like this story hasn't really received much of the international attention it deserves, but perhaps we will see more discussion on this in the coming week, and possible punishments for the perpetrators of the flag burning. One to watch!
And finally, while sometimes the news can seem like it's all doom and gloom in Southeast Asia, here's a link to the work of Indonesian artist Fransdita Muafidin who "publishes a series of photomontages with kittens and fat adult cats among the urban landscapes from around the world."
Why tho? (Note from Kirsten Han, Chief Editor: "Why not? Everything is better with cats.")
In Singapore, we have this from Chief Editor Kirsten Han:
Singapore has executed the same number of death row inmates in the past week as it did in the entire year of 2016. A total of four men were executed between 24–26 October. Anti-death penalty activists like myself find it really difficult to track and document executions as they are often neither officially announced beforehand or confirmed after, but if all the reports are correct, then seven men have been executed this month, bringing it to about nine hangings this year.
There hasn't been coverage of the executions in the local mainstream media this week, although international publications have carried stories. This morning, the brother of Prabu N Pathmanathan—who was executed on Friday—said that Prabu would have been happy about the media coverage, as he had wanted people to see his photograph and know about his story, so he could pass on the message to people to not get involved in drugs.
The increase in executions is worrying, and we're going to have to keep an eye out for more hangings moving forward. Let's hope the authorities are going to give it a rest.
And that's a wrap on this week in Southeast Asia! If you have a tip on a news story you would like to see featured in Akan Datang, then send it to us via aisyah.llewellyn@newnaratif.com !

Q: htppd.conf or other local issue loading any php file in one specific localhost directory Firefox:
"You have chosen to open (no file name here?) which is a: application/x-httpd-php (12.6 KB) from http://localhost"
"What should Firefox do with this file? Open with () Save File [ BROWSE ]"
And if I Save File, the file names is: "ywooukMV.part" ???
Chrome:
Just prompts for download of file name. And the file name by default is "download"

I spent some time researching this, and all I could locate as a "fix" was to ensure my httpd.conf had the correct call for:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
In addition, I am having no problem reading other php files. This is the only directory (in any directory below it as well) that prompts this download and will not load the file.
I am using WAMP server. I've tried multiple versions of Apache and PHP and the result is the same.
I have other php files and directories in the same localhost, and none of them have this same problem.
There is no .htaccess file located in the directory either which I thought might be something that could cause this with a configuration.
Is there something specific I can look for to resolve this?
I'm at a dead end.
