Talented acoustic guitarists take note: there's a new amp on the market that's about to change design techniques and your sound quality.
As one of the coolest new pieces of music equipment available, the Fishman SoloAmp Acoustic Guitar Amp packs a lot more than it seems like. Created for the crooner with the acoustic guitar, the SoloAmp provides great sound quality and coverage in a wide variety of venues.
The combination of 220 watts of power, six custom high-excursion speakers and a soft dome tweeter help make this amp unique and dynamic. Despite its small frame, the SoloAmp delivers a better sound than most common speakers. It's also compact as it is meant to be carried in one hand and is easy to setup.
The small bundle of greatness does come at a price, but its nothing an aspiring guitarist or interested customer can't save for. The SoloAmp is a great investment in the long run because of its size and quality. Instead of dragging huge guitar amps to gigs, you can now move more freely and look good at the same time.
To find out more about the product and its specifications, click over to Guitar Center or Amazon .
This is one of those tricky topics to address in public, but I feel I need to do so. I am actually the original developer of the SoloAmp -- the concept, the name, the fundamental industrial design. I licensed the project to Larry Fishman in November of 2005 with the objective of seeing the product fast-tracked to production for the Summer NAMM Show in June 2006. I provided a project ready to take to final production engineering and tooling, including custom developed drivers and one functional engineering prototype. Larry did not want to agree to a substantial percentage royalty, nor pay a substantial up-front fee. So, I agreed to simply accept a running monthly payment from him for the rights for whatever period of time the product was active for Fishman.
July 1, 2007 Fishman terminated our rights agreement and stopped paying me, yet continued to develop the product. Now, the company has publicly announced the product, still without paying me.
I have just come out of a disastrous employment catastrophe working for a Chinese company (yes, in China), so simply do not have the money to attack Fishman legally at the moment and secure my rights to this I.P.
I have a pending trademark registration for "SoloAmp," as well as a pending US patent application for the self-contained portable line array amp system for guitar-vocal usage, with a documented development trail extending back to my first shop-built prototype in February of 2003.
Interestingly, Fishman has heavily *******ized the product concept I presented in 2005. The product as launched is larger, heavier, more expensive, and much more complex than my original version. All along the way I have counseled Larry against these wrong-minded distortions of the pure original SoloAmp. And, as Fishman has taken 2.5 years to do what should have been concluded in 6-months, I have continued to explore further development and have drastically improved from where I was in 2005 with this product.
I have the choice now of spending precious cash on either (a) an expensive legal fight, or (b) bringing my current, state of the art "SoloAmp" iteration to market. So, I am choosing to take my newest design to production and leave the inevitable legal battle for the future.
I will be launching my product at NAMM Show in Anaheim in January. It is 70% of the size of the Fishman product, 60% of the weight, has basic 2-channel mic + guitar I/O with reverb, and improves on the SPL and sound quality of the Fishman version -- including improving bass response. It will retail for $499.
Anyone buying a Fishman SoloAmp between now and January will have their heart broken by that choice as the Fishman product is destined to eventually be killed by legal action, and (b) my January product at $499 will exceed the performance of this Fishman product.
I'm not whining. Fishman gambled that I would remain out of the country and not fight this battle, and decided to proceed without honoring our contract terms. However, I am back in the USA now, and am not letting this slide. The purpose of this post is simply to put the truth into the public eye, before the readers here, and make it available to Google.
Finally, anyone immediately hopping to Google to see who this Jack Campbell guy (me) is will discover a crazy period of nastiness where I was regularly accused of being everything but a decent human being back in the 2003 - 2005 period as I was running a very controversial Apple accessories manufacturing company. I am not a popular guy, and I carry a horde of detractors around the web with me. I think Larry counted on these factors making his contract breach more palatable to the guitar community.
In any case, the SoloAmp is too big, too heavy, too complex, and way too expensive, and completely misses the mark I set with the original project Fishman licensed from me in 2005. Compared to other options, it's still a great choice... only about half as great as it should have been.
I'll be fixing those problems at the Anaheim show.
It seems that this guy has had to retract this statement on all of the other boards and forums on the web.
This is what he says: "I have had a conversation with Larry Fishman and have removed the original post that was here."

The U.S. Equated Ransomware Hackers With Terrorists
The U.S. Department of Justice has given investigations into cyber ransomware attacks the same priority as those related to terrorist activities. The recent hacking of Colonial Pipeline's system was a trigger of sorts.
Reuters reports that orders sent out to district attorneys across the country specify that investigations related to cyber extortion must be coordinated with a task force recently created in Washington.
According to Justice Department spokesman John Carlin, the special work order is designed to establish links between cyber extortionists operating across the country and find a way to break the entire criminal chain.
According to U.S. authorities, last month a criminal group infiltrated the information system of one of the largest pipeline operators in the United States, blocking data and disrupting equipment. This caused skyrocketing gasoline prices, panic buying by citizens in large quantities and local shortages of fuel and lubricants in the southeastern United States. The attack was attributed to hackers operating from the territory of Russia. In order to restore access to the systems, Colonial Pipeline decided to pay the criminals $5 million.
"To make the necessary connections between national and global incidents and investigations for certain, and to allow us to develop a comprehensive picture of threats to our national and economic security, we must expand and centralize our domestic tracking systems," according to the Justice Department.
Carlin said the terrorist investigation model has been used by law enforcement before, but never for cyber extortionists. Usually such a scheme has been resorted to in cases involving other national security issues.
The field is now required to send timely and regular investigative reports to Washington. The instruction also requires officials to track and report on other investigations related to the cybercrime ecosystem. It mandates that information be sent about attempts to circumvent antivirus services, illegal forums and marketplaces, cryptocurrency exchanges, hosting services for criminals to operate anonymously, botnets and online money-laundering services.
According to cybersecurity expert and former federal prosecutor Mark Califano, "Enhanced reporting could allow the Department of Justice to use resources more efficiently" and "identify common vulnerabilities" used by cybercriminals.

Is there going to be a soft or hard landing? A housing crash or a downturn? Recently Stephen Poloz forecasted the probability of a soft landing in the Canadian housing market at 60% to 80%.
But what does soft landing even mean?
Soft landing: Home prices grow no faster than the rate of inflation or fall no more than 5 percent.
Downturn: Home prices decline by 5 to 15 percent.
Bust: This definition comes from Goldman Sachs, which put the lower bound for a bust at 15 percent. We'll set the upper bound at 25 percent.
Crash: Home prices plummet by at least 25 percent.
Semantics aside, the real question is which scenario is in the cards.
"If the upcoming supply of condos is not absorbed by demand as units are completed over the next few years, there is a risk of a correction in prices".
Guess which direction the market is heading. That's right - the supply is rising as the demand wanes. No wonder the condominium vacancy rate in Toronto increased by 50% in 2013 to 1.8% from 1.2% back in 2012.
"Moreover, if investor demand has boosted construction in the condominium market beyond demographic requirements, this market may be more susceptible to shifts in the buyer sentiment. A sharp correction in the condominium market could spread to other segments of the housing market with stretched valuations, as buyers and sellers adjust their expectations of the future path of house prices."
Last time a shift in the buyer sentiment occurred was in 1989. By 1996 the average home price in downtown declined by 50% adjusted for inflation. History tends to repeat itself. There was a condo bust in the late 80's and it's likely to happen again because the majority of condo owners today are investors. For instance at CityPlace, at least 50% of the condo owners were investors.
Finally, earlier this week the governor of the Bank of Canada gave a speech in Montreal with regards to managing risks. Below are selected quotes with my commentary.
"At the height of the crisis, although our financial system remained sound, our exports collapsed, causing a recession. To support economic growth, we have relied mainly on household spending, supported by exceptionally stimulative monetary policy."
So as exports collapsed and the rest of the world didn't want to buy our sh*t, the government decided to sell Canadian produced crap to Canadians. But there was a problem - Canadians were all ready broke at that time. So what do you do? You make an offer to the consumer that they cannot resist - make the money cheap via low interest rates. Consequently Canadians went on a spending binge pushing the household debt to record levels.
In fact, earlier today Statistics Canada reported that debt to income ratio in Canada reached a new record high of 163.7%. The good news (for now) was that the debt-service ratio remained near record low of just 6.98%.
But hey, even Poloz recognizes the troubles of low interest rates.
"But there are trade-offs, lots of them. Today, the most obvious is that prolonged low interest rates can result in the development of imbalances in the household sector. In Canada, we have seen rising levels of household indebtedness, stretched house-price valuations and overinvestment in housing."
"To address these imbalances, the Finance Minister tightened mortgage insurance rules four times, among other measures, and the Superintendent of Financial Institutions introduced stronger mortgage underwriting standards for Canada's banking institutions."
Think about it for a moment. How worried must the government be about the housing market that they intervened four times. And these changes were not small changes!
"In the wake of these measures, a constructive evolution of household imbalances began around the middle of last year. Growth in household borrowing has moderated, and residential investment is on a more sustainable track.
Those indicators have picked up again, we think mainly because people pulled forward their plans when mortgage rates started to move up during the summer. We expect these imbalances to stabilize and then gradually unwind in coming years."
In other words, the Bank of Canada thinks that the recent bounce back in the housing market is temporary.
"In our base-case scenario, the Bank expects a soft landing in housing and a pickup in exports and investment. This rotation will relieve the tension between low demand and household imbalances. Nonetheless, the risks around this base case need to be managed.
There is a risk that household imbalances could keep building and set the stage for a sharp correction down the road. Such a correction would be a risk to both the Canadian economy and our financial system."
This past November condo prices in Toronto rose by 10% while detached homes rose by 16%. The longer this trend continues, the more worried you should be! As Poloz said, it's just setting the stage for a sharp correction down the road. Or put simply, the more the home prices rise - the more they will eventually fall!

4 Books to Help You Understand the Russia-Ukraine Conflict
Go deeper into the historical and political reasons for Russia's invasion.
By Kaytie Norman | Published Feb 28, 2022

On February 24, 2022, Vladimir Putin declared Russia would be embarking on a "special military operation" in Ukraine. This was followed by blasts in Kyiv and Kharkiv, Ukraine's capital and second-largest city, respectively. The invasion occurred as Ukraine was considering joining NATO, a prospect that Putin found threatening.
Though this news has been particularly alarming and heartbreaking, the conflict between Ukraine and Russia has been formally ongoing since 2014—and the larger history and political reasons for this war stem back even further. The four books below give much more context to the history between Ukraine and Russia, and Putin's motivations for invasion.
The Burden of the Past
By Anna Wylegala and Malgorzata Glowacka-Grajper
This book of essays explains how shifting borders, totalitarianism and trauma have each shaped Ukraine's history, and how memory plays a role in shaping Ukrainian politics, identity and culture.
In Ukraine, memories of the past have been largely influenced by political agenda. But when the Soviet Union collapsed, Ukrainians were able to begin to remember the past as it truly was, leading to new conflicts and "memory wars." The Burden of the Past explores how memories—and history—can be warped, and the effects this can have on a country trying to carve out a better future.
"A milestone of the scholarship about Eastern European politics of memory." —Wulf Kansteiner, Aarhus University
Fragile Empire
By Ben Judah
Vladimir Putin was President of Russia from 1999-2008, was reelected in 2012, and has held the position since. As such, understanding him is essential to understanding the current conflict.
To do just that, journalist Ben Judah traveled extensively in Russia and the former Soviet republics, interviewing everyone from ordinary Russian citizens to Putin's colleagues and government officials. This book is the result of Judah's efforts, and paints a full picture of Putin's rise to power and how it has affected Russia.
"[A] dynamic account of the rise (and fall-in-progress) of Russian President Vladimir Putin." —Publishers Weekly
12 Who Don't Agree
By Valery Panyushkin
Sometimes, a close look at a single event can illuminate a larger narrative. In 12 Who Don't Agree, Valery Panyushkin profiles 12 dissidents who participated in 2007's March of the Dissidents, a demonstration protesting Putin's leadership of Russia.
In a country where freedom of the press is not guaranteed, writing this book was a risk. But it's one Panyushkin thought necessary, and together, the dissidents' stories explore what happens when a ruling class does not value human rights, equality, or basic decency and fairness.
"Panyushkin reveals a great deal about post-Soviet Russia and the kinds of constraints on freedom that most citizens still live with and try to work around. . . . [He] writes in vivid tableaux." —Los Angeles Times
Summary and Analysis of Winter Is Coming: Why Vladimir Putin and the Enemies of the Free World Must Be Stopped
By Worth Books
Winter Is Coming is the best-selling book on Russia's slide back into dictatorship. But if nonfiction books aren't your thing, this summary from Worth Books will give you all the highlights.
Russian dissident and chess champion Garry Kasparov starts at the falls of the Soviet Union, explains Russia's failed attempt at democracy, and then follows Putin's rise to power—and explains what his leadership means for the future of Russia, and the rest of the world.

This section states that every alien shall be presumed to be an immigrant until he establishes to the satisfaction of the consular officer, at the time of application for a Visa that he is entitled to nonimmigrant status. It means that the Consular Officers have to assume that all Visa applicants intend to leave their home country and want to immigrate to the US. During the Visa interview, the applicants have to prove that this assumption of the officers is wrong.
Do I need a Visa to travel to USA from the UK?
British Citizens who hold a UK passport do not need a Visa to travel to the US, provided that their stay period is a maximum of 90 days and they have a valid return or onward ticket. Visa-free travel does not apply to people who wish to visit the USA for work or study. If you are an Indian citizen, which means you hold an Indian passport and wish to visit the USA from UK, you will require a US Visa.
The proposal made by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) in the month of December 2018 of favouring advanced degree holders for visas in the US is likely to hit the profitability of IT companies. This is because the number of H-1B visas getting approved would decrease. As per rating agency Icra if the move is approved there would be a reduction of 10 per cent in H-1B visa approvals for regular applicants. The report added that increased onshore hiring associated with higher wage bill and factors like pricing pressure on commoditised services, wage inflation and lower revenue growth will negatively impact the margins of IT companies. As per the agency, overall operating margins are still expected to decline to 20.8 per cent in FY21 from 22.1 per cent in FY18.
It needs to be mentioned here that under the proposed amendments USCIS would first select 65,000 visas from the cumulative pool of regular as well as advanced degree holder applicants while 20,000 highly skilled H-1B visas would then be provided to advance degree holder applicants from the unselected pool. The report, however, highlighted that the credit profiles of players will remain stable as companies would be able to sustain free cash flows despite pressure on revenue growth and margins. It is noteworthy to mention here that with visa issuance norms being tightened, Indian companies have been forced to ramp up onshore hiring.
Given that revoking work authorization to immigrants on H-4 visa would impact about 1,00,000 women, two US women senators have sought preservation of employment authorization for immigrant women. The two senators namely Kamala Harris and Kirsten Gillibrand have sent a letter to Kirstjen Nielsen, the secretary of Homeland Security and L Francis Cissna, the director of USCIS regarding the matter.
It needs to be mentioned that H-4 visas are issued by US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to the immediate family members of H-1B visa holders. The authority has stated in court as well as publicly that it intends to revoke work permits to H-4 visa holders after the Trump administration is done reviewing the H-1B visa policy. The H-1B policy is being reviewed as authorities believe that the policy was being misused by companies to replace American workers.
The senators while asserting that independence and equal opportunity are fundamental American values stated that depriving spousal H-4 visa holders of pursuing professional careers was opposed to the principles on which the country was built. They added that revocation of the H-4 rule would invariably target south Asian women. It is noteworthy to mention here that as of 2017, 94% of the total H-4 visa holders having work authorization were women, out of which 93% were from India.
Donald Trump, the president of the United States of America on Wednesday stated that he wants foreign workers to come into the country through the merit-based immigration system in a bid to meet the demands of companies. He stated this while talking to reporters during a luncheon with the members of the Congress while adding that he was not against people coming into the country. The US president said the current immigration system which is in place makes little sense as they were a confused mixture of laws that were put together over years. He added that the country needs to put in place a system that does not need a thousand judges to handle cases of illegal immigrants.
It needs to be mentioned that given the revamp in the immigration picture of the US, Indian-Americans who went into the country on the back of H-1B work visa have been the worst sufferers. This is because the new system of immigration put in place by the Trump administration has imposed a 7% per country quota on allotments of permanent legal residency.
The rules related to calculation of visa overstay by foreign students in the US were tightened by the Trump administration as it issued a draft policy late on Friday. Under the policy, which is scheduled to come into effect on August 9 unlawful presence days will be counted from the day the student fails to maintain immigration status. Currently, unlawful presence is started to be counted only after authorities discover the violation or an immigration judge passes an order. The proposed change in the rules will make sure that students who have completed more than 180 days of unlawful presence in the country during a single stay can be banned for a period of 3 to 10 years. Those who stay over a year can be banned for life.
The USCIS which has issued the policy memorandum has stated that to assess whether a foreign student has overstayed, officers can look into the immigration history of the student or seek details from the students itself. It needs to be mentioned that Indians form the second largest group of foreign students in the US after Chinese students.
With the Trump administration planning to revoke an Obama-era rule, a group of 15 influential lawmakers from California has asked the administration to reconsider the move. It needs to be mentioned that the rule which the Trump administration is planning to revoke is the one that allows the spouses of H-1B visa holders to work in the country. The group of lawmakers believe that the H-4 rule which is in contention was a matter of maintaining family unity as well as having economic competitiveness.
In a letter written to Kirstjen M Nielsen, the secretary of Homeland Secretary the lawmakers stated that by not allowing the spouses of H-1B visa holders to work will remove an important incentive for highly skilled immigrants to remain in the country. The lawmakers believe that the decision if implemented will have a negative impact on the economy as many highly skilled immigrants would be forced to leave the United States. It needs to be mentioned that US president Donald Trump had last year signed an executive order for tightening the rules of H-1B visa programme in a bid to stop 'abuses', when it came to using the visa programme.
Indian nationals are set to enjoy hassle free travel to the United States in the near future after India was included in the list of countries that would enjoy the benefits of a simpler immigration process. As per Bharat Kumar Kuthati, the Regional Passport Officer of Bengaluru, the decision to include India in the list of countries that would enjoy hassle free travel to the states was made during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Washington recently. The scheme, known as the Global Entry Program (GEP), has been in the works since July but has not seen rapid progress due to requirement of clearances from multiple agencies in the United States.
The GEP allows any ordinary Indian passport holder to enrol in it by submitting the application to various agencies that are responsible for verification in the US. These agencies then examine the applications and provide clearance if everything is in order. If the application is approved then the immigration process in the US becomes completely hassle free. The RPO of Bengaluru is also trying to increase the number of passports issued by the passport offices in the city by opening multiple Post Office Passport Seva Kendras (POPSKs). Since January 2017, 12 POPSKs have been opened. The POPSKs also provide SMS based appointment facility.
The United States (US) Embassy has urged Indian travelers to apply early for a visa due to high demand and avoid any delays. Applicants are advised to be aware of the peak travel season during the summer and the delay could be up to 30 days or more to get a visa interview.
The wait time is expected to continue over the next few months. The embassy added that Mission India's non-immigration visas are one of the largest in the world, processing more than a million visas a year. The embassy also warned the applicants to be aware of scams and frauds and the only means of getting a US visa is through official channels. Currently, the US Embassy consulates in Delhi and across India can only expedite visa interviews for genuine emergency cases.
The U.S. Consular has stated that India will start hosting the Visa Day on 6th June, wherein authorities will adjudicate the student visas exclusively for Indian citizens, who seek to do their studies in America.
On June 6, the United States Embassy in Delhi with its other consulates in Hyderabad, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Chennai will deal solely with student visas. On an average, the interview is anticipated to take about 30 minutes. Indian and Chinese students are the two of the most highly noticed international communities in the United States. But after strict policies set by the Trump's administration, even this has seen a fall.
If the United States Governments increases the investment amount for EB-5 visa applicants, the number of Indian seeking the visa is expected to dip down to 80%, said a report from CanAm Investor Services.
The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Visa in the United States is for high net worth investors (HNIs) who can invest $500,000 into a new business that will create 10 or more jobs for Americans. By availing the Visa, the HNIs will get a green card that provides permanent residency for the applicant as well as for the immediate family members.
The Visa programme is an employment-based (EB) preference programme meant to encourage foreign investments and economic growth in the US.
According to CanAm Investor Services, the Trump government is expected to increase the minimum investment amount to apply for the Visa from $0.5 million to $1.3 million. Multiple proposals are already in place including one by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) which is supporting the idea of increasing the minimum investment.
It was further reported that the change in investment amount would lead to 50 to 80% dip in the number of Indian applicants, which in turns prevents India from becoming the largest applicant countries in the world.
With the number of EB-5 visa applicants from India increasing every year, the country was expected to become the second largest applicant country. In 2017, about 500 applications were received from India, against 354 in 2016, said the source. It further added that based on the percentage of increase in the investment amount, the demand for the visa may fall down to 50 to 80%.
Indian applicants, who are applying for EB-visas are anticipated to be declined by at least 80% this year if the United States gives a thumbs up to hike their investment cap to $1.3 million from $0.5 million.
The EB5 (Employment Based 5th preference) visa is intended only for HNIs (High Net-Worth Investors) to earn their green cards and live permanently in America with the family by just investing $5,00,000 in a fresh business that has a potential to create ten jobs or more for Americans.
As per the recent reports, the applicants for an EB5 visa from India has doubled ever since 2014. In fact, it is said to become the world's second-biggest applicant country. During FY 2016, only 354 Indians applied for it whereas, in FY 2017, it increased to 500.

Watch: Chicago Activist Calls on the U.S. to Abolish ALL Police. Yes, Really...
Kacie Burnett
The Kelly File recently held a panel where people discussed the aftermath of Dallas. Some black power groups and activists have been heralding the shooter as a hero. Those people are, in fact, irrelevant dirtbags. There are also some people who want cops to be gone, just not in the dead sense. Those people are morons, for obvious reasons (see Idiot Chicago Protestor Wants to 'Defund the Police'...Misses HUGE Irony). Some of which we'll detail later. The panel featured one such activist, from Chicago, who fervently insisted that we should abolish the police. Yes, as in the people who put their lives on the line to protect us. That police.
Activist: We need to abolish the police. Period. Demilitarize the police, disarm the police, and we need to come up with community solutions for transformative justice.
Megyn Kelly: Who's going to protect the community if we abolish the police?
Activist: We need to come up with community solutions.
A community that polices themselves sounds nice... But it seems highly unlikely for some reason. And by "some reason," I mean lots of reasons. Namely the fact that we've tried something like that before. Baltimore PD scaled back on policing in 2015. The result? An utter crapfest from hell. Even the people who claimed to loathe the cops wanted them to come back (see Baltimore Rioters Now Want Back The Police They Hated...).
This is an especially bad idea as it relates to the safety of black communities. The activist says it herself, black on black crime is a huge problem. With no police to mitigate crime, who's to stop gangs from running amok? Who would shoulder that responsibility at the risk of death? Yeah, the answer is nobody. Nobody besides... well, the people who comprise the police force already.
Look, we know the police aren't perfect. The police know the police aren't perfect. We also know that the police are pretty darn effective when it comes to dealing with crime. I don't want to live in a society without them. Mostly because I'm not a fan of being mugged, raped, and shot. All things that skyrocket in the absence of police. Improving PD policies and procedures is one thing, yes. Abolishing the police? Whole other ballpark, and not a good one. Unless you're into unfettered violence and barbarism. In which case, might I suggest relocating to a place more suited for you - like Pakistan.
This attitude is just plain silly. And it hurts the law enforcement community. Sure, she's not advocating for police killing, but her ideology does nothing but help to spur on anti-police rampages (OPINION: This is What Happens When You Malign Cops). Why do BLM activists want to exterminate the police? Because they think they're racist and unfairly targeting blacks. But the police don't target black people - they target crime, and well... Draw your own conclusions. Or just take a gander at the facts.

SAVE OUR NATIONAL MONUMENTS - THE BEARS EARS AND OTHERS!
On April 26, President Trump signed an Executive Order instructing the Department of the Interior to review 27 National Monuments created by presidents, both Democratic AND Republican, since 1996.
Comment today via regulations.gov or monumentsforall.org to tell President Trump and Secretary Zinke that you support Bears Ears and all of the other monuments that are at risk.
Since 1906 when Teddy Roosevelt designated Devils Tower as a National Monument, the Antiquities Act has been used to protect significant cultural, natural, or scientific features of our beautiful country. Many Monuments designated under the Act have gone on to become National Parks but *all* of them serve a deeply important job of protecting our public lands for decades to come.
Furthermore, in 1938, FDR attempted to get rid of a National Monument and his attorney general let him know that he could not undo a designation under the Antiquities Act without Congress's approval. Remind our leaders that these lands were designated by Presidents Clinton, G.W. Bush, and Obama for posterity and that is not to be taken lightly.
Trump says he listened to those members of Congress who want to review the existing monuments' designations. He heard them, so let him hear you. Until May 26, you have the chance to comment directly on the issue.
Speak up. Your words matter.

ZwebackHD calls for FIFA 21 Matthew Hoppe card after Schalke heroics
Published: 10/Jan/2021 6:29 Updated: 13/Jan/2021 18:51
ZwebackHD has called for EA SPORTS to add a card for Matthew Hoppe after his impressive performance for FC Schalke in the Bundesliga, which included a hat trick.
ZwebackHD might be one of the most popular FIFA players in the world, but he's still a regular football fan like anyone else. However, the difference is that his opinions reach a wider audience and are more likely to make an impact.
Like many fans, he was awestruck with Matthew Hoppe's stellar performance for FC Schalke in the Bundesliga. The 19-year-old striker scored a hat trick against Hoffenheim and secured his team's first win in 30 matches.
Matthew Hoppe has a lowly overall of 56 in FIFA 21, but his performance in real life suggests otherwise.
ZwebackHD believes that kind of performance deserves some accolades in FIFA 21. However, Matthew Hoppe doesn't even have a card in Ultimate Team. ZwebackHD wants to change that, and he created a concept card on Twitter.

"Dear EA SPORTS, Matthew Hoppe. 19. First American to ever score a hatty in the Bundesliga," he said. "Gets Schalke their first win in their last 30 matches. We needs this. Needs it."
Dear @EASPORTSFIFA

— Zwë 👑 (@ZwebackHD) January 9, 2021
The post has been liked almost 3,000 times and sparked a discussion among fans and players. Almost everyone agrees with him in the comments. However, many are pessimistic about the likelihood of it happening, while others remain hopeful.

Still, at the very least, it's gaining traction on social media. It's only a matter of time before it's brought to EA SPORTS' attention. But whether they decide to give him a card or not is a different story.
Either way, ZwebackHD, and his fans have made a strong case for Matthew Hoppe. It will be interesting to see whether he chimes in on the issue himself, but he's probably too busy preparing for his next game to notice!

EA SPORTS finally reveal when TOTY is coming out in FIFA 21
Published: 19/Jan/2021 9:45 Updated: 19/Jan/2021 9:46
FIFA 21 FIFA TOTY FIFA Ultimate Team
EA SPORTS have confirmed the date on which they'll reveal FIFA 21's Team of the Year, and we've also got a few clues for when the team should drop into packs as well.
Each year, when December comes to an end and we start to look forward to the new year, EA SPORTS start rolling out their Team of the Year promo.
Fans are able to vote on giving some of the best players in the game, an even better card with high 90-rated, and multiple 99 overalls being commonplace in TOTY.
This year, EA raised some eyebrows with some players who were nominated – most notably, Joselu, Francesco Caputo, and Steve Mandanda. However, the actual team is set to be revealed only a few days after the voting closed.
The full list of nominees for FIFA 21 Team of the Year (TOTY).
FIFA 21 TOTY release date
The voting for TOTY in FIFA 21 closed on January 18, sparking some wild rumors that the team was going to revealed and released later that day. Of course, that was never going to happen.
Read More: FIFA 21 FUT Champs Rewards
Instead, EA needs a few days to tally up the millions of votes they've received before they reveal the team. That's why they've now announced that the team will be revealed on Friday, January 22.
Now, that's not to say that the team will be revealed and go right into packs. No, some players have suggested that we might have another wait, and they probably won't be wrong.
EA updated their TOTY site to confirm the reveal date.
Typically, in years gone by, the Team of the Year cards have been released in phases. So we'd have goalkeepers first, then defenders, then midfielders, and attackers before the full squad is released.
Read More: FIFA 21 Squad Battles rewards
So, it could very well be the case here that while the team is revealed on the 22nd, EA leaves us all salivating over the weekend. They could then release the team a few days later with the phase of drops.
That's purely speculation from some players, and EA might just reveal the team and then put it in packs. Though, that would be different from years gone by. So, we'll just have to wait and see.

New data collected by the Juno spacecraft that was sent to study Jupiter has made it possible to hear what it's like to leave the sun's space and enter the planet's magnetic field.
Besides Jupiter's stunning light show that astronomers were able to witness with the help of the Hubble Telescope, the actual sounds that the planet's environment makes have been captured by Juno spacecraft on its way to Jupiter on June 24.
— NASA's Juno Mission (@NASAJuno) 30 июня 2016 г.
New videos released by NASA use data collected by the spacecraft about the space environment 5.56 million miles from Jupiter to create sound files. The high-tech transformation lets us literally hear the exact moment Juno entered Jupiter's territory.
"We can actually listen to what it's like to leave the sun and enter Jupiter," Juno principal investigator Scott Bolton said during a news conference on Thursday.
The sounds are what is known as a bow shock.
"The bow shock is analogous to a sonic boom," William Kurth of the University of Iowa in Iowa City, lead co-investigator for the Waves investigation, said in the NASA statement. "The solar wind blows past all the planets at a speed of about a million miles per hour, and where it hits an obstacle, there's all this turbulence."
In this case, the obstacle is Jupiter's magnetosphere, the invisible border that separates the planet's magnetic part of space from the sun's.
"If Jupiter's magnetosphere glowed in visible light, it would be twice the size of the full moon as seen from Earth," Kurth added.

Q: ASP .Net Connection Pooling With Oracle Hello all respective genius there, thanks in advance.
I have an Asp.NET Web service which have around 20 to 30 methods to expose .
For database I am using Oracle database with the help of Delete repeated wordNet and a single class for the DB Operation  and for every request I open the connection and close once its job get done for sure , means that I am closing all the connection there is no connection leak in my code. I have checked this like 10 times but as I go and check in the database (Oracle 11G) there are many session are inactive more than 20 hours . I am looking these sessions in V$Session table but I am very confused how they are not getting destroyed after long time even I am closing all the connections .
Please share your answers with me because all I can do close all the connection and that I am doing very well but still there are many inactive session more than 20 hours  . How is this possible ?

A: We had similar problem in asp.net mvc project with connecting to Oracle Database (with pooling).
After a long time we found out the problem was with oracle db-links. If you calling a stored procedure which uses oracle db-link then you have to call DBMS_SESSION.CLOSE_DATABASE_LINK('db_link_name'); at the beginning of stored procedure.
For example:
PROCEDURE simple_procedure(refCur out SYS_REFCURSOR) AS BEGIN

    /* we don't really know if db-link is open or not */
    BEGIN
        DBMS_SESSION.CLOSE_DATABASE_LINK('dblink_name');
        EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN null;
    END;

    /* call db-link */
    OPEN refCur FOR SELECT * FROM DUAL@dblink_name

    EXCEPTION WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN null;

END simple_procedure;

After this problems with session has gone.

Q: Autoselect picker row I've been looking for quite a while after an answer for this, but can't seem to fint the solution...
Whenever I open my picker I need to pull the screen a little bit in order for the first row to get "picked" otherwise it will return a blank string.
Is there a way to by default autoselect the first row so that you wont need to do this motion?
Thanks in advance

A: Use
- (void)selectRow:(NSInteger)row inComponent:(NSInteger)component animated:(BOOL)animated

to set any default value that you want.

A: You could use:
[pickerView selectRow:0 inComponent:0 animated:NO]

In your viewDidLoad method.

A: You just declare NSString in your .h file
NSString *strVal;

then in your viewDidLoad method assign your default value to the string
strVal=your default value;

and your delegate method :
- (void)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView didSelectRow:(NSInteger)row inComponent:

(NSInteger)component
{
    strVal=assign element;
}

Conde Nast Traveler
Great Escape: Oregon's Wallowa Mountains
I recently got to write about one of my favorite regions of Oregon: the Wallowa Mountains. It may be a five-hour drive from Portland, but boy, this part of the state is utterly gorgeous. I long to go back every summer to hike, camp, swim, and have a beer along the creek at Terminal Gravity.
At the end of our long hike from the trailhead, we found the Minam River Lodge
Here's my story, for Conde Nast Traveler. I'll give a tease here.
Two hours into our hike through the Eagle Cap Wilderness, I looked up from the wooded path to see that the thick stand of Douglas fir was draped in a gauzy yellow-green lichen. "Usnea!" I called out to my husband, Don, who is used to me blurting out the scientific names of Pacific Northwest flora and fauna. The usnea—also called old-man's beard—looked ethereal in the dappled afternoon sunlight. I half expected to see a wood sprite spring out from behind one of the towering firs in this patch of old-growth forest.
I suppose you could say that Don and I had come to this far-northeastern corner of Oregon to escape reality for a bit. After the year we'd had—cooped up indoors, our attention wandering from the pandemic to the protests, the wildfires to the election—we felt we'd earned it. The place's remoteness, a five-and-a-half-hour drive from our home in Portland, helps explain why, even though I've lived in Oregon on and off since the late '80s, I didn't visit Wallowa County until a decade ago. But when I first saw the wide-open Zumwalt Prairie Preserve, snowcapped mountains, and glacial lakes, I fell in love. I've been back a handful of times since to hike and ride horses.
Some refer to the Wallowa Mountains, a 40-mile-long range that extends into neighboring Union County, as Oregon's Alps, and the whole region does bear some resemblance to Switzerland. But it's also distinctly the American West. The Nez Percé were the first people to settle the area. They lived here for at least 11,000 years before being driven out by the U.S. Army in the late 1870s, in direct violation of the U.S. government's own treaty. Though the tribe is now officially based in Idaho, it still holds culture camps for Nez Percé kids each summer near Wallowa Lake.

There's something romantic about hiking into a place with everything you need on your back. Even better when the destination is a backcountry luxury retreat with no Wi-Fi or cell service where we could be blissfully ignorant of the news cycle. We were on our way to the Minam River Lodge, hidden in the middle of the 360,000-acre Eagle Cap Wilderness and accessible only by private plane, horseback, or foot.
Owner Barnes Ellis came here in his 20s for a family reunion. It was 1990 and the property—an old hunting lodge—had seen better days. The beauty of the wild landscape made an impression on him, though, and 20 years later he bought the roughly 126-acre spread. By then the lodge was a dilapidated wreck, but Barnes hired an architect and embarked on a multiyear, multimillion-dollar renovation. Since the Minam opened in 2017, I'd had it in my mind to visit and, specifically, to arrive on foot, even if that meant possible, if unlikely, encounters with elk, cougars, and bears.
The eight-and-a-half-mile journey in, mostly downhill, started at the Moss Springs Trailhead, high above the tiny town of Cove. We didn't have to trek far after leaving the relative civilization of the Moss Springs campground to feel totally enveloped by wilderness. We traversed steep scree-covered paths, passed hillside meadows, and scrambled across pristine creeks, all against the backdrop of evergreen-covered mountains.
By the time we arrived at the Minam, our feet ached and it was a challenge to stand upright under our packs. Our tent was more of the glamping than camping variety, with luxe linens and wide-plank floors. (The resort also has cabins and conventional guest rooms in the lodge.) After a quick rest, we ambled slowly to the main lodge, where chef Sean Temple, a veteran of New York's Jean-Georges and Portland's beloved Paley's Place, holds court at the restaurant. Most of the herbs and vegetables he uses are grown on the property, while nearly everything else is sourced from nearby farms, ranches, and wineries. It was a memorable dinner—and not just because it was one of the first, in a very long while, that we didn't have to cook ourselves. After a chicory salad studded with Jonagold apples and showered with Parmesan, Temple presented a perfectly seared grass-fed strip steak over a purée of grilled chanterelles. We heard laughter from a boisterous group on the outdoor patio, a balm after months of isolation.

KEX: the Cool Icelandic Youth Hostel—Now in Portland

These days, it seems like a new hotel opens in Portland every week. I wrote about the latest one—which has a fabulous ground-floor restaurant/bar—for Conde Nast Traveler.
Portland, Oregon, might seem like an unlikely destination for the second location of an Iceland-based hostel. After opening the first Kex hostel in Reykjavik in 2011, Kex owner Kristinn Vilbergsson moved to Vancouver and began taking exploratory train trips to Seattle and Portland to figure out his next hostel location.
Vilbergsson enjoyed Seattle, but it was the Rose City that stole his heart. "It's close to nature, outdoorsy—very similar to Iceland that way," says Vilbergsson, who goes by Kiddi. The same day he arrived in town, Vilbergsson began fantasizing about a Portland outpost of Kex. A food writer had given him the number for chef Greg Denton (of Ox and Bistro Agnes), and before long Denton had put Vilbergsson in touch with Portland power player and restaurant backer Kurt Huffman. The two met for coffee, and discussed the proposition of partnering on an upscale hostel.
Seven years later, Kex Portland has opened at the Burnside Bridgehead, an area in the city's lively Central Eastside. The four-floor hotel has stylish accommodations that come with exclusive access to a basement sauna, as well as a splashy new restaurant and bar, Dóttir, helmed by top Icelandic chef Ólafur "Óli" Ágústsson and Ned Ludd alumnus Alex Jackson. (A rooftop bar will open in spring.) All of this is sure to be a hit with locals in this formerly industrial neighborhood, already a destination for its restaurant scene
The 15 shared rooms—some with bunk beds that sleep eight, others that sleep 16—don't skimp on amenities, and much of it is locally designed. Mattresses are made by Suite Sleep (the same ones used at the Ace Hotel), pillows are filled with down, and each bed comes equipped with canvas privacy curtains and nifty storage bags (both handmade by local Portland craftsman Leland Duck at Revive). The industrial-looking bunk beds, designed in-house, were fabricated by Black Mouth Design in Seattle. Each bunk has its own electrical outlet and a sliding drawer where guests can securely lock their belongings. But for those craving a more traditional hotel experience, there are also 14 private rooms with queen or king beds. The whimsical wallpaper in the hallways is hand-drawn by Portland artist Melanie Nead.

"This is not the first property of its kind," says general manger and partner Sean O'Connor, referring to the popularity of design-forward hotels that merge a youthful hostel-like vibe with luxury amenities. (The Society Hotel, Freehand and Generator are just a few examples.) "But this style of travel is becoming more popular. And Americans are embracing it." Couples who spend $38 per person on their bunk room at Kex (the winter rate in the 16-person room) may be scrimping on their lodging so they can splurge at dinner; say, the five-course tasting menu at Le Pigeon, a short walk away. "It's about experience first," says O'Connor.
Speaking of experience, Dóttir, on the ground floor, has already become a social hub for travelers and Portlanders alike. Icelandic designer Dáni Pedersen, a former Hollywood set designer, took great care to use repurposed items from the Pacific Northwest and elsewhere. As a result, the space has a worn-in feel with bookshelves, a refurbished Douglas fir floor (salvaged from a train station at Fort Vancouver), and the façade from an old bakery in Cairo. There will be live music in the evenings, and much thought (and expense) was put into adding an acoustic sub-ceiling so that no sound will spill into the upstairs bedrooms.
Drinks maven Lydia McLuen (formerly of the Hoxton Portland's Tope) has put a Scandinavian stamp on the seasonal cocktail list with drinks like Lady of the Mountain (raspberry-infused Reyka vodka, hazelnut orgeat, lemon, and skyr) and the Dagsson (George Dickel rye, Cocchi Torino sweet vermouth, Gammel Dansk—a Norwegian bitter—and Cynar). But don't miss the wine. Because of O'Connor's deep connections in the wine industry (he used to work at Antica Terra and Le Pigeon), he has access to some Oregon wines that you won't taste anywhere else from gems like Cameron, Bow & Arrow, Ovum, Pierce, and Holden Wine Co.
As in Iceland, Kex brews its own beers in Portland. Pro brewer Carston Haney is collaborating with Stumptown on a "lactose porter," with Gigantic on a "Viking Juice," and with Mikkeller (the acclaimed Danish brewery that's had a Portland pop-up since June) on a sour pale ale for the hotel. The Nordic-meets-Northwest menu at Dóttir is accessible—with plates small (chicken liver mousse, shrimp smorrebrod with caramelized root veggies) and large (roasted trout with sauerkraut, mushroom, and bacon; roasted duck breast and leg confit with roasted Brussels sprouts and smoked leek). It remains to be seen if the kitchen will offer a take on the kex—an Icelandic biscuit that's the hostel's namesake—for dessert.

Women in Weed
It seems to me that many of the most creative cannabis ventures in my home town of Portland are run by women. I was pleased, then, to be asked by an editor at Conde Nast Traveler, UK to write this story on the female entrepreneurs who are rebranding cannabis businesses. (Think chic lifestyle boutiques rather than the bro culture that's so often been associated with this intoxicating plant.)
This article was first published in the June 2019 issue of Traveller magazine
Walk into Ladies of Paradise on Portland's Division Street, and you'll first be struck by the vintage fashion, the mid-century-modern, gold-chrome shelving and all the pink – from the walls to the cat-eye sunglasses. It might take you a few beats to realise that the hanging black sweatshirt is emblazoned with 'Keep Blazing, Stay Amazing'; that the green, ceramic objets d'art are actually smoking pipes; that the facial serum is made with CBD oil; or that the gold triangle necklace doubles as a roach clip. As it turns out, this expression of fierce, retro femininity is cannabis-themed.
Ladies of Paradise is a creative agency and shop, founded by stylist Jade Daniels and photographer Harlee Case (both pictured above) around the tenets of 'women, weed, fashion'. Its Instagram – all candy colours and punky thrift-store glamour – has more than 40,000 followers, and its party-hard events, with themes such as Moroccan Nights or Cowboys vs Aliens, are big draws, taking place in Portland, Denver and Los Angeles. As well as helping to market mostly female-made cannabis products for other brands, the company has now launched its own, including Lady Jays, a line of strain-specific pre-rolled joints that come in Miami Vice-style pink-and-green boxes.
'We wanted to bring some fun and creativity to the smoking lifestyle,' says Case, who right now has purple-streaked blonde hair. 'Everything we do is very extra; we want people to dress up and be themselves, and to mix cannabis with art, fashion and pop culture.'
She and Daniels met in Southern Oregon, when Case was running an online vintage shop and shot Daniels's jewellery for its website. They bonded over their love of weed and eclectic, era-bending fashion, and soon found themselves photographing female cannabis growers in ball gowns. Things have developed quickly since they moved to Portland a few years ago, with Ladies of Paradise hiring a graphic designer, social-media editor and project manager. In 2018 the female-focused, smoker-themed store opened, and many of the items for sale are made by locals. 'Our aim is to uplift people who are doing awesome things, and to get rid of stigmas,' says Case.
Ladies of Paradise isn't alone in what Case calls 'this wild weed culture that's driven by women who all really support each other'. As Portland becomes the USA's progressive cannabis-lifestyle capital, a diverse set of ladies have created everything from Aesop-like dispensaries to a Kinfolk-style magazine and a business course for female CEOs. They meet up in loft spaces and yoga classes, as high on get-up-and-go as they are on locavore marionberry gummies.
One of the scene's pioneers is Cambria Benson Noecker, brand director at cannabis company Groundworks Industries. Noecker, who has a pomeranian-chihuahua mix called Gucci, was the driving force behind two of the state's coolest dispensaries, Serra and Electric Lettuce. When designing Serra in 2014, she was adamant that she 'didn't want that tie-dyed Bob Marley vibe.'
Instead, her team created two airy, apothecary-inspired concept stores, one of which has a plant wall and a neon-blue sign that reads 'Quality Drugs'. Little buds from high-grade Oregon growers such as East Fork Cultivars are presented worshipfully in glass cabinets, which also house an obsessively curated selection of paraphernalia, including Stonedware's geometric porcelain pipes, designed by local artist Ariel Zimman, and Leif Goods organic CBD chocolate bars. The next outpost will open in LA.
Another figure who has defined Portland's new feminine-cannabis aesthetic is Anja Charbonneau, the former Kinfolk creative director who launched female-staffed, visually lush Broccoli magazine in 2017 (broccoli is slang for weed). 'Most of the existing publications were male and news-oriented,' says Charbonneau. 'We wanted something deeper that stimulates the senses.' The first issue's beautifully spare cover story was on Japanese ikebana flower arranging, but with cannabis plants; stories since have touched on everything from smoking etiquette to reproductive health for users. Next, it will hold a three-day festival called In Bloom at Portland's sceney Jupiter Next Hotel.
Meanwhile, in the city's Chinatown, The Commune is a brick-walled, Brooklyn-ish office and gathering space devoted to weed culture. Founder Amy Margolis, a high-flying lawyer, is also behind The Initiative, a business boot camp for women who want to launch cannabis-related businesses. Graduates include Yvonne Perez Emerson of Make & Mary, which produces CBD skincare and aromatherapy inhalers, and Meryl Montgomery and Valarie Sakota, founders of chic Barbari, a lifestyle brand and shop (Montgomery is also the partnerships manager at Broccoli).
Events are a big part of the scene. Everyone goes to bars such as Rontoms, with its fire pit and stage, and the Escape Bar and Grill, a queer, female-owned joint with karaoke and games. But the real fun is DIY, largely because pre-legalisation smokers got good at putting on house parties. Take Make & Mary's Emerson, who hosts yoga sessions and workshops in her hangar-like Tillamook Station studio. There is a BYOW (bring-your-own-weed) policy, and meet-ups have included hemp-flower arranging, pipe decorating and abstract-art classes. Tokeativity is even more ambitious: the global ladies' cannabis club, which started in Portland, now has chapters in Seattle and South Africa. Founders Lisa Snyder, a women's rights activist, and artist Samantha Montanaro, also came through The Initiative, and facilitate regular functions, from Alice in Wonderland-themed parties to meetings for mothers. The early get-togethers often took place at Montanaro's home: for the Witchy Woman social in 2017, rooms hosted tarot readings, mala-bracelet crafts and a spooky photobooth, where Case took the photographs.
What none of them are doing is lying on the sofa watching Cheech and Chong videos. 'People used to say to me: how do you get anything done?' says Case. 'But that's changing. No one would look at this bunch of women doing amazing things in Portland and call us lazy.

Where to Eat in Fraserhood, Vancouver
A glass of Frappato and the menu at Osteria Savio Volpe
A decade ago, the east Vancouver neighborhood now known as Fraserhood was mostly known for its Pho restaurants and cheap rents. But in 2007, Andreas Seppelt opened the French bistro Les Faux Bourgeois, and it became an instant hit. Chic coffee shops, co-working spaces, bars, and more restaurants (including the fabulous Osteria Savio Volpe, with its sexy vibe and handmade pastas) soon followed. In fact, this once-gritty area now has reputation as an emerging foodie enclave, anchored on one end by Bow & Arrow's only Vancouver café, and on the other by one of the best restaurants in the city. Here, our shortlist of the best spots.

Q: Getting callback is not a function in JS with Highcharts I am not being able to update min/max/avg values in Highcharts when doing zoom.
I am trying to combine these two pieces of code:
1.Update min/max/avg---->http://jsfiddle.net/d_paul/supgh9c1/4/
2.load DB tables based on zoom ---> https://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/library/pure/highcharts/highcharts/tree/master/samples/stock/demo/lazy-loading/
So the code shown here produce a "callback is not a function".
But if i remove the "e"(that is the event that highcharts pass when the user select a zoom) in the function after_Set_Extreme , I get "e" is not defined in that function. And if I add "e" as passing parameter (e,updateLegendLabel) I get same error as before, but now in the afterSetExtremes line. So it seems e(event) is not being recognized.
But if you see the link # 2 above, afterSetExtremes is called without passing "e", but is expected in the function . See function definition..
Can anyone help me to understand what is wrong here?
This is highcharts when doing the actual chart
$('#container2').highcharts('StockChart', {
      chart: {
        zoomType: 'x',
        events: {
          load: updateLegendLabel
        }
      },
      ......

      xAxis: {
        events: {
          afterSetExtremes: after_Set_Extremes(updateLegendLabel),
        },
        .....

        function after_Set_Extremes(e, callback) {

          processed_json_temperatura.length = 0;
          processed_json_presion.length = 0;
          processed_json_humedad.length = 0;
          processed_json_lluvia.length = 0;
          processed_json_horas_frio.length = 0;

          if (typeof(e.rangeSelectorButton) !== 'undefined') {
            ........
            callback();
          }

          function updateLegendLabel() {
            var chrt = !this.chart ? this : this.chart;
            //  alert('entre updatelegend')
            console.log(this);
            chrt.update({
                  ....
                }

A: Combining these two functionalities seems to be very simple, please check this example: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/oh3ubdLv/
However, in your case after_Set_Extremes function is called only once, when the chart is initialized. You need to create an additional function to pass arguments:
Highcharts.stockChart('container', {
    ...,
    xAxis: {
        events: {
            afterSetExtremes: function(e) {
                after_Set_Extremes(e, updateLegendLabel)
            }
        }
    }
});

function after_Set_Extremes(e, callback) {
    callback();
}

function updateLegendLabel() {
    console.log('callback');
}
