Q: How to group custom markers in a custom view? I am creating an eclipse plug-in that verifies XML and XSL code by applying some specific rules, and which generates some custom error markers (ex: Error, Warning, Info) in a custom view (called PCC Markers).
I create my markers like this :
marker = resource.createMarker("pccplug.myMarker");
        marker.setAttribute(IMarker.MESSAGE, message);
        marker.setAttribute(IMarker.LINE_NUMBER, line);
        marker.setAttribute(IMarker.SEVERITY, IMarker.SEVERITY_ERROR);

Here is my plugin.xml :
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.ide.markerSupport">
   <markerField class="pccplug.views.Recommendations" id="champRecommendations"
          name="Recommendations" />
   <markerContentGenerator id="pccplug.views.myCustomMarkerGenerator"
          name="My Marker Generator">
     <markerTypeReference id="pccplug.coolMarker" />
     <markerFieldReference id="org.eclipse.ui.ide.severityAndDescriptionField"/>
     <markerFieldReference id="org.eclipse.ui.ide.resourceField" />
     <markerFieldReference id="org.eclipse.ui.ide.pathField" />
     <markerFieldReference id="org.eclipse.ui.ide.locationField" />
     <markerFieldReference id="org.eclipse.ui.ide.markerType" />
     <markerFieldReference id="org.eclipse.ui.ide.priorityField" />
     <markerFieldReference id="champRecommendations" />
   </markerContentGenerator>
</extension>

My problem is that all the errors are not grouped, they are all one after the other :
My current output
And I would like to have them grouped by categories (ex: SEVERITY or PRIORITY), as it is already the case in the Problems View : My desired output
How can I create these groups of markers (I tried almost every MarkerField,Type,Group, but I couldn't do it) ?
Does anyone has any idea on how to do that ?

A: Your current output and desired output are the same, so I guess you have achieved what you need already ;-)
You have to specify defaultMarkerGrouping in your markerContentGenerator. As in:
    <extension point="org.eclipse.ui.ide.markerSupport">
       <markerContentGenerator id="pccplug.views.myCustomMarkerGenerator"
              defaultMarkerGrouping="org.eclipse.ui.ide.severity"
              name="My Marker Generator">

... others here ...
       </markerContentGenerator>
    </extension>

3 Principles for Providing Remote Support to Farmers and Small Businesses Around the World
By Dave Hale, Director, TechnoServe Labs
Agriculture COVID-19 Entrepreneurship Technology
The COVID-19 crisis has impacted farmers and entrepreneurs around the globe and has made it much more difficult for organizations to offer in-person support. How can these organizations provide this critical guidance remotely? TechnoServe identified three key principles for providing effective phone-based support when in-person training is not possible.
Editor's Note: This article was originally published on Medium.
As a business adviser for TechnoServe in Kenya, Alphonse Ouma Ochieng' was accustomed to visiting shopkeepers. He and his colleagues would talk to them about their challenges and provide advice on good practices to improve the performance of their shops.
Things have changed with the coronavirus pandemic, however. His clients' work as shopkeepers supplying essential goods and services to vulnerable communities has never been more important, but the entrepreneurs also face new challenges. How do they keep their shop stocked when customers are panic-buying food and cleaning supplies, and middlemen are raising prices? How do they maintain sales now that the government has imposed a curfew? How do they make sure that their shops don't help to spread the disease?
At the same time that shopkeepers are tackling these new issues, travel restrictions and policies have made it more difficult for Alphonse and his peers to visit them and provide in-person support. How can organizations provide this critical support remotely?
Through TechnoServe, we have created a WhatsApp group where our trainer is sharing training materials. We are also discussing and sharing with each other insights on COVID-19 pandemic updates as communicated by the government."
— Caroline Moses
At TechnoServe, we recently published research on best practices for remote learning and are using the findings to create remote versions of our entrepreneurship programs. Many of these programs are designed for entrepreneurs in developing countries who have at least limited access to a computer, but we have found that similar principles are applicable in low-resource environments where people instead rely on phones or smartphones to access information.
To reach these communities, it's important to understand which tools your clients have access to, and be conscious of technological gaps related to gender and age. Once you've selected the right tools, we've found that there are three key principles for providing effective phone-based support:
Keep it short, simple, and on point
Keep it interactive
Most people find it difficult to watch long videos on their smartphones, and that certainly applies to busy entrepreneurs in the midst of a crisis. Training videos should be no more than two to three minutes long, and audio messages should be less than one minute.
Similarly, it's best to stick to just a few simple, memorable messages. Keep the presentation straightforward, cutting out unnecessary words or graphics. Break longer, more complex topics into chunks.
Even for short content, it's important to concisely introduce, then explain, then summarize. Aristotle may have pre-dated the debut of WhatsApp by 2,600 years, but his advice on rhetoric still stands: tell them what you will tell them, tell them, and then tell them what you told them.
Connection is an essential part of the learning process, and it's important to maintain that engagement in distance learning programs. One way our programs are doing that is by creating groups of learners, since people learn best in communities and can provide mutual support. If there are existing platforms that you can use, such as WhatsApp or Facebook groups, it's easy to have moderated discussions.
There are also opportunities to engage clients with tasks. For instance, if you ask someone to implement a best practice for pruning her crops, or merchandising his shop's goods, have them take a picture of it — or even better, a short (15–30 second) video — and post it. Through this kind of practice, you can foster increased engagement and connection with the community, and help the clients better understand the skill.
We have heard from entrepreneurs that with everything going on in their world, it's important that a support program be consistent. That's why we work to create a structure and a rhythm to our remote support.
This starts by developing a "lesson plan" for a week of training. Program it out. For example, on day one you send an introduction to the topic by WhatsApp. On day two, you send a short video to watch. On day three, you ask them to practice something and send back a picture of it. On day four, you may send them a follow-up video, etc.
TechnoServe is already applying these ideas in practice to support coffee farmers in Puerto Rico, micro-finance agents in Mozambique, and shopkeepers in Kenya. So while Alphonse may not be able to make his usual shop visits, he has been featured in videos that are distributed to entrepreneurs.
For entrepreneurs, this kind of remote support is a vital tool as they deal with the effects of the coronavirus pandemic. "Through TechnoServe, we have created a WhatsApp group where our trainer is sharing training materials. We are also discussing and sharing with each other insights on COVID-19 pandemic updates as communicated by the government," said Caroline Moses, a 23-year-old shopkeeper in Kenya who had been struggling to manage her supplies and maintain sales during a government-mandated curfew. "We are also reminding ourselves about precautionary and health-related measures to undertake to avoid contracting or spreading the virus as we serve and interact with customers and suppliers."
The coronavirus pandemic is creating new challenges, but with creative solutions, we can continue to provide effective support to entrepreneurs and farmers at the moments when they need it most.

Hope and Resilience During COVID-19: Part 2
For over 50 years, TechnoServe has helped hardworking women and men in the developing world gain the skills, connections, and confidence to create self-sustaining businesses and build a path out of poverty. In part two of this series, we ask a few of these farmers and entrepreneurs to share how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted their lives and how they are coping with its effects.

NEWSCABAL > finance > Joint venture funds housing development on site of former Strathclyde Police headquarters
Joint venture funds housing development on site of former Strathclyde Police headquarters
January 6, 2021finance
Apache Capital Partners and Harrison Street are to fund a build-to-rent (BTR) development in central Glasgow that will be managed by Moda Living.
The scheme, known as Holland Park, will see the former Strathclyde Police headquarters on Pitt Street replaced by four apartment blocks providing 433 homes for rent.
Demolition works finished last March, with practical completion due in late 2023.
The investment is the fifth UK project funded by Apache Capital and Harrison Street.
In addition to Holland Park in Glasgow, current Moda neighbourhoods being funded by the joint venture include Springside in Edinburgh, The Lexington in Liverpool, The Mercian in Birmingham and New York Square in Leeds – representing a total of 2,322 homes.
Apache Capital and Moda Living purchased the Holland Park site in October 2016.
As well as creating new homes, Holland Park will provide 15,000 sq ft of internal amenities, including communal lounges and health and wellbeing zones.
A further 31,000 sq ft of outdoor amenity space will be provided, with the four apartment buildings that form Holland Park to be set around a courtyard open to the public during the day.
Residents will also have access to landscaped terraces overlooking the Glasgow skyline, while mixed commercial and leisure space will be provided on the ground floor – including cafes, bars, restaurants and co-working facilities.
Paul Bashir, chief executive of Harrison Street's European business, said: "Glasgow is a key commercial centre within the UK, with a strong local economy that includes thriving financial services, technology and life sciences sectors.
READ Darkening 'global economic skies' pull stocks lower
"The city is home to a world-class university, renowned culture and attractive leisure scenes, however there is a significant under-supply of high-quality rental housing, with a lack of purpose-built private rented accommodation."
John Dunkerley, chief executive and co-founder of Apache Capital Partners, said: "Alternative residential sectors such as BTR were already seeing increased interest from institutional investors prior to the pandemic thanks to compelling market fundamentals and the promise of liability matching income streams with defensive, counter-cyclical qualities."
Johnny Caddick, chief executive at Moda Living, added: "Significant institutional investors are more attracted than ever to the BTR sector, driven by the granular income which has proven its resilient qualities during these uncertain times."

GhaintPunjab Exclusive : Here's The Latest Update About Raj Kundra's Maiden Punjabi Film!
With the amazing growth in Punjabi industry, many big Bollywood makers are coming to Pollywood industry and trying their hands at different subjects, just to earn a quick buck. After Mahesh Bhatt's Dushman and Priyanka Chopra's Sarvann, the next big name to enter the Punjabi film industry is Raj Kundra. The news was all around that husband of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty would be joining hands with Vaapsi director Rakesh Mehta and producer–distributor Munish Sahni for his maiden Punjabi project.
Now, all this is something that we've told you before.
Miss World Punjaban winner Japji Khaira, who has been away from the industry since 3 years, has been signed for the movie and Diljott too will be a part of it. Earlier, the team had had announced Jassie Gill as the lead but sources reveal that due to some reasons he wasn't finalized.
Also, earlier the film was titled as 'Nanak' but the name might be changed as it may create a controversial stir, which the makers surely don't want.
This yet to be re-titled flick will be based on social issues and will leave behind a message for it's audiences. This will definitely not be a rom com..thank god for that!
We are excited to watch what this Bollywood maker has in-store for Punjabi audience and it is such a relief that we won't be getting any tried and tested formula in this upcoming Punjabi film.

Today, take a moment and study, I mean really study something in nature.
Not all dreams go down with the ship.
About 7 years ago I had a tragic accident and should have died or been paralyzed.
I was on a 20ft ladder and the ladder fell completely backwards. I too began to fall backwards the entire way down.
Some how I adjusted in the air and landed on one foot shattering the my right ankle and a few bones.
In shock, and thinking I only twisted the ankle, I went back up the 20ft latter. I know STUPID!
On a phone call after I came down my sister convinced to go to the emergency room immediately.
I drove on the right "twisted" ankle. AGAIN STUPID, I know!
To this day my ankle hurts for the fist 8-10 steps when I get out of bed or if it is going to rain. True.
The point to this story and post?
Since that terrible day, I have had a fear of ladders and heights. Today, I went up in a highteck bucket crane 160ft to photograph the cross and spire being rehabbed on my Church.
Final verdict… fear of heights cured and I feel blessed to be alive today to see this spectacular view!
While driving home last night, I witnessed the longest and most amazing sunset of my entire life!
Although I never saw the actual sun since it was behind cloud cover, it painted the sky with the most remarkable array of colors for thirty plus minutes.

If you wouldn't ask a chef what kind of stove did they use to prepare a great meal— why do people believe it is often necessary to ask a photographer what kind of camera did they use after viewing a good image?
Let's all just enjoy the meal.
Capture with iPhone 5s with a touch of the native camera app. Transferred to snapseed and crank up the drama to 100%. desaturate your photo till it's void of any colors. Add a pinch of sharpness and a smidgen of structure. Repeat and add spots of contrast if needed.

Union reps for NYC cops, firefighters demand more COVID-19 testing

The unions representing cops, firefighters and EMS officers are urging Mayor Bill de Blasio to make them a higher priority for access to coronavirus testing given their front-line duties interacting with the public amid the pandemic.
Ninety-eight NYPD officers and other employees and 17 Fire Department/Emergency Medical Service personnel have tested positive for COVID-19.
The leaders of the unions endorsed a letter sent to City Hall sent by Rep. Max Rose (D-Staten Island-Brooklyn) about the need to expand testing first responders.
The letter was co-signed by James LeMonda, president of the Uniformed Firefighters Officers Association, Gerard Fitzgerald, head of the United Firefighters Association, Paul DiGiacomo of the Detectives Endowment Association, Louis Turco of the Lieutenants Benevolent Association, Edward Mullins of the Sergeants Benevolent Association and Vincent Variale of the Uniformed Emergency Medical Services Officers Union.
In the letter, the congressman and labor leaders for the uninformed officers agree that New Yorkers who are already sick or hospitalized and health care workers who treat them must be the first priority for COVID-19 testing – but add that the uniformed forces should be next in line.
"As we all work to dramatically expand capacity for more and faster testing, we understand that patients whose symptoms are severe enough to require hospitalization and healthcare workers with serious symptoms are being prioritized for testing. We simply ask that first responders be the next group prioritized so that our first responders can continue to do their work and keep our city safe. We appreciate your prompt attention to this critical issue," they said.
When asked about the call for increased testing, Mayor Bill de Blasio said a press conference Sunday, "The entire testing system is based on the priority of the needs."
Rose also told The Post: "There are nearly entire firehouses in quarantine right now. We have dozens of cops, firefighters and first responders who have already tested positive for COVID-19. We need to make sure the men and women in uniform who put their lives on the line every day to keep us safe and maintain order during this pandemic are able to quickly get tested when needed. This is a matter of public safety, both for those they serve with and for those in the community."
The letter to de Blasio also says, "These men and women wake up every morning, put on their uniform and go to work—they do not have the option to work from home. Nor do they have jobs where they can remain secluded away from other people. As they are required to interact with the public and with each other, their health is critical to our city functioning."

The union leaders and Rose also complained that first responders who have been tested have had to wait several days for the results.
"We hope you agree that this delay is unacceptable and that we must do better," they said.
But the city Health Department has strict guidelines on testing, in part because of a shortage of protective gear in hospitals and test kits.
Last week, the NYPD did offer testing to cops feeling ill but they ran out of test kits by noon.
"Outpatient testing must not be encouraged, promoted or advertised," a March 20 memo from Demetre Daskalakis, the deputy health commissioner, to health providers said.
"There is no reason to test asymptomatic persons or mild-to-moderately ill persons who are not hospitalized, including HCW or first responders. Healthcare resources must be saved to treat the sickest patients who require inpatient and critical care," the memo said.
"There is a national shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE), collection swabs, and viral transport media supplies and it is critical that laboratory testing be prioritized for hospitalized patients."
An NYPD spokesman, in a statement, did not directly address the testing issue.
"Obviously, the coronavirus is having a significant impact on all aspects of our lives. The Police Department is no less affected. First and fore-most we are providing for the safety and education of our members. Supplies can be scarce as a crisis unfolds, but we are doing our utmost to ensure personal protective gear is in the hands of the members of our department," said Detective Denise Moroney.
"We are seeing our sick numbers rise, but not dramatically. And it is certainly nothing we can't handle. Remember, we have approximately 36,000 uniformed officers and about 19000 civilians. We are seeing a sick rate of around five percent."

The Flash (Movie)
DC Confirms New Supergirl For The Flash Movie, Played By Sasha Calle
By Aeron Mer Eclarinal Posted: February 19, 2021
After the dismal showing of Justice League in theaters back in 2017, DC had to regroup and find ways to provide a fresh start once again for the franchise. As a result, the next wave of films under the DCEU banner, such as Aquaman and Birds of Prey, embraced the standalone nature, and this trend continued with Joaquin Phoenix's Joker all the way to the looming arrival of Zack Snyder's Justice League.
At the center of all of this is Ezra Miller's The Flash film. The first solo movie of the Scarlet Speedster is expected to be a deep dive into alternate realities, bringing together every past and present project into a grand multiverse setup.
Set to debut in November 2022, The Flash will see the return of Ben Affleck's Batman alongside Michael Keaton's Caped Crusader, but plot details about the appearance of the two heroes are still being kept under wraps. Now, it looks like the cast of the film is getting a major addition in the form of another iconic DC powerhouse.
THE DCEU'S SUPERGIRL REVEALED
Deadline shared in a report that The Young and the Restless actress Sasha Calle has been cast as the DC Universe's new Supergirl.
The outlet also pointed out that the Columbian actress is the "first Latina Supergirl ever in DC" and that the character is set to debut in Ezra Miller's The Flash movie.
In a post from Instagram, director Andy Muschietti shared Calle's emotional reaction to her Supergirl casting.
A post shared by Andy Muschietti (@andy_muschietti)
"Been doing a lot of flashbacks lately but today is about a Flash forward."
In the same video above, Muschietti also provided a sneak peek of Supergirl's costume in The Flash, seemingly hinting that the character will have strong ties to Henry Cavill's Man of Steel.
Andy Muschietti's Instagram
Deadline also revealed that there were "over 425 actresses who auditioned" for the role and Muschietti watched all of them alongside DC Film president Walter Hadama. It was shared in the report that they were "blown away" by Calle's "toughness and vulnerability" that she brought to the role.
Muschietti acknowledged that the talent pool was "truly amazing," but Calle was the one who stood out as the director admits that she was "destined to play" Supergirl in The Flash.
"I saw more than four hundred auditions. The US, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia . The talent pool was truly amazing, and it was very hard to make a decision, but we finally found an actress who was destined to play this role."
SUPERGIRL'S EXPANDED ROLE IN THE FLASH
On the surface, this is a surprising move for The Flash, considering that no one expected that Supergirl would debut in the upcoming solo flick. Still, it will be interesting to see how the DCEU's Kara Danvers will fit in the multiverse-heavy narrative of the film, and this raises the question if this version of the hero will come from another reality.
In the franchise's canon, Barry Allen hasn't explored the concept of time-travel and the multiverse yet, and it looks like that the hero's first foray into this otherworldly territory will happen in his solo film. If this is the case, then Supergirl's appearance could present a lot of interesting story possibilities.
For starters, if Muschietti and the rest of The Flash crew decide to place Supergirl in an alternate Earth, it would be very similar to what the Arrowverse did to Grant Gustin and Melissa Benoist's versions of their respective DC heroes. To recap, Gustin's speedster accidentally traveled to Danvers' Earth while trying to boost his speed, and this essentially started the duo's captivating friendship.
On the flip side, The Flash could introduce Calle's Kara Danvers as the main Supergirl of the prime Earth of the DCEU, and this could have big implications for Henry Cavill's Superman. Given this story element, there's a good chance that Barry and Kara will form an alliance in the film, with the DC heroine helping the speedster to navigate through the multiverse. By doing this, it's possible (and speculated) that Kara will take over the intended role that was planned for Ray Fisher's Cyborg.
Overall, Supergirl's arrival in the DCEU has been a long time coming, and her introduction could change the landscape of the franchise forever.

Can a single instance of CABI (CA Business Intelligence) 6.x (Jaspersoft) be used for multiple CA Products?
Quick answer: Yes, but only within product suites.
CA Configuration Automation currently does not support or have support for CABI 6.x.
IM BU can use a single instance of CABI 6.x. So Spectrum and SOI for example can share the same install. We suggest installing the SOI version and integrating Spectrum into that.

.IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF LEWIS AND CLARK
In search of spacious skies and the majesty of purple mountains,
twenty-eight Boy Scouts commemorated America's
bicentennial year last summer by spending eighty-one days
retracing the Lewis and Clark expedition from St. Louis,
Missouri to Astoria, Oregon. The group, Explorer Scouts
ranging from fourteen to eighteen years of age from Omaha's
Post 476 and four leaders, included Omaha partner
Lawrence F. Chandler and his son, Larry Jr.
In 1804 President Thomas Jefferson gave Meriwether
Lewis and William Clark $2,500 to lead thirty men to the
Pacific Northwest. It took them nearly two years to complete
a 3,600-mile journey that did much to dispel ignorance
about the region and open the way for westward expansion.
What cost only $2,500 in 1804 cost $10,000 in 1976.
Much of the expense of the 1976 expedition was attributed to
a combination of inflation and contemporary means of supply
and transportation. A caravan consisting of a U-Haul
van, trailers portaging fourteen motorized canoes, and an
eighteen-foot, fully equipped kitchen trailer followed the
boys, stopping at towns along the way to pick up prearranged
orders of groceries. There were also four cabin cruisers waiting
at St. Louis to transport the boys up the Missouri River
and a bus to get them back home from Astoria.
Larry Chandler, chief fundraiser for the venture, had no
small task. To begin, he asked that each boy raise $1,000 toward
the trip. Then he found companies willing to contribute
much of the necessary camping equipment. Even though
businesses, parents and friends were very generous, some
boys were still unable to raise the initial $1,000. "If they
wanted to go, I found a way," Larry said.
Despite the advantages of modern technology, the scouts
were beset by many of the same problems and accidents faced
by the Lewis and Clark expedition. First, a fire destroyed one
of the cabin cruisers. Then a second cruiser was damaged by a
floating log. In Glasgow, Montana, hurricane-force winds
whipped through their campsite, forcing the boys to seek
shelter in the truck. Although uprooted trees and broken
branches caused considerable damage to cars, picnic tables
and tents, no one was injured.
At one point on the journey fourteen scouts were stranded
for a day and a half without supplies. The boys had decided to
separate, half of them traveling to Devil's Creek, Montana
by supply truck and the others by canoes. Heavy rains in the
area didn't slow the canoes too much, but the truck became
bogged down in the eastern Montana gumbo, a type of soil
that when wet becomes very sticky. Meanwhile the boys in
the canoes reached Devil's Creek, a desolate location sixty
miles from the nearest town, only to find no trucks waiting.
They spent the night without food, drinking water or blankets.
Two of the leaders used CB relay to ask relatives in the
area to bring food. The boys were finally reunited two and a
half days later.
The most serious accident came not in a canoe or on the
trails, but on the highway near Pierre, South Dakota. The
group's supply truck collided with a semi-trailer truck hauling
a crane. The supply-truck driver was pinned inside his
vehicle by the crane and suffered lacerations of the head and
legs requiring some 100 stitches. However, he was able to
rejoin the expedition two weeks later.
Added to these obstacles were washed-out bridges,
rattlesnakes, a dam lock which nearly smashed the canoes
and malfunctioning equipment. Nevertheless, the boys
agreed that theirs was probably the experience of a lifetime.
"This is the greatest high adventure any single scout unit in
America has ever attempted," the senior Chandler said.
Because of a heavy work schedule, Larry spent only the
second half of the trip with the boys. He led the group over
the wilderness trails and down the Pacific slope. "When I
first mentioned this trip to the Mid-America Boy Scout
Council, nobody thought we could do it," Larry said. The
council was wrong. The boys hiked more than 350 miles
through the Rockies at elevations of up to 10,000 feet at a
pace of twenty to thirty miles a day. "I've been hiking a long
time, so at first the boys had a tough time keeping up with
me. After a while it became apparent that old legs in shape
are not as good as young legs in shape. They could hike about
one mile every fifteen minutes," Larry said.
After more than two months on the road, the mishaps and
rising tensions from blisters, sore feet and exhaustion caused
some temporary morale problems. "It's like C rations that we
carried for our lunches," one scout said, "you have to get used
to them, so you make fun of them and it turns out all right."
By the end of the trek, after canoeing the last 700 miles, they
were once again a cohesive group.
It was the last week in August when the expedition finally
reached the blue-green expanse of the Pacific Ocean. "It was
a definite learning experience," Larry said. "I watched the
boys gain confidence in themselves and their outdoor skills.
It gave them a feeling of accomplishment. I found that very
rewarding."
Larry is deeply involved in scouting. At present he is the
Mid-America Council vice-president of finance, a member
of its executive board, and a trustee. In addition he has assumed
area, regional and national responsibilities. "Scouting
promotes character development and leadership ability,
mental and physical toughness. Through activities like the
trek, a boy becomes aware of his strengths and limitations.
He gets a real sense of himself." o

Netflix releases emotional trailer for 'Dogs' docu-series
"We needed him as much as he needed us"

A good dog!
It may be National Cat Day, but don't let that fool you. Netflix is apparently claiming the day for canines.
The streaming giant released the trailer for its new docu-series, "Dogs," created by Amy Berg and Greg Zipper on Monday. ...And we may or may not be already crying.
The new series introduces us to dogs from all over the world and the people's stories who love them most of all, from Italy to Costa Rica to Syria. There is no shortage of love in this series. From a girl who suffers from seizures and finds safety in her therapy dog to a man who risks everything to rescue his dog trapped in Syria. (We're not crying, you're crying.)

Other episodes include the story of a fisherman who relies on his dog as a business partner and a look into the lives of the two most renowned dog groomers. There's also an episode that follows workers at a dog sanctuary in Costa Rica and volunteers who rescue dogs from kill shelters. (OK, now we are crying a little.)
"Dogs don't just make us feel loved, dogs make us feel safe. In the world we live in today, no matter how divided we are, we should take care to realize how much dogs mean to all of us, and how our bond with them can help bring us together," Zipper told Variety.
The six-part series is set to release on Nov. 16, but until then, feel free to grab a box of tissues and watch the trailer.

People who have read this book have changed from weak individuals in the Lord into the mighty men or women of valor that God created them to be. When you learn to develop a real relationship with the Lord, being able to hear from him every day and to be directed and feel his presence, your life will be forever changed.
life changing book for every family!!
People that have listened to this audiobook have learned to better identify when the enemy is whispering to themselves, their loves ones, or others, causing them to speak words of strife. Learn to diffuse people who try to engage you in strife, and limit the effectiveness of the enemy by using the tools inside to keep your peace on every day and enjoy your life. Stop the enemy from tormenting you with thoughts. You can live every day in peace with minimal strife.
Just What I Needed When I Needed It!
Pure and Spotless: Are You Ready for Christ's Return?
Pure and Spotless helps to explain how critical it is that people in the church get set free from obeying the enemy's voice in their minds causing them to behave in ways opposite of the fruit of the Holy Spirit.
Restored to Freedom changes the lives and marriages of people from pain, hopelessness, and brokenness to love, joy, and peace. It is the first audiobook that provides revelation of what happens when we grow up with fathers and/or mothers that cause emotional pain and how it affects a child later in adulthood, which then hurts their relationships, marriages, and children.
I take you through my personal journey of growing up and never hearing about having the same authority as Jesus Christ, and then later in life when I learned about it, my life was changed forever. Since June of 2009, I have been healed from everything the enemy has tried to put on me and walk in divine health. You can do the same after you learn about your authority in Christ through this audiobook, as the Lord wants His people to be healthy and powerful and healing other people everywhere they go.
Learn to better understand and tolerate the people in your life who are hard to love and live with. When we learn to see the hard-to-love people through the eyes of Christ, we are able to have patience for their behavior and love them like Christ instructed us to perfectly. As we love people that are hurting, we become more like Christ every day. Make a dramatic difference in the life of others that everyone else has given up on.
So many people settle for an ordinary life instead of believing in faith to accomplish an extraordinary life. Hear about real-life examples to encourage you to achieve the amazing things that the Lord wants to do for you, if only you can believe.
Too many in church are unable to overcome their limited beliefs that God will heal them, will provide for their financial needs supernaturally, and will change their children and save their marriage. God will do all of that in more, if you would only get your eyes off of your circumstances and trust in God without fear. Fear is the opposite of faith and stands for "False Evidence Appearing Real". The only way that you can please God is with your faith. He loves it when we show bold faith to stand and wait for Him to move the mountains from our paths.
Keep Your Faith On provides tangible ways on a day-to-day basis to believe for anything and accomplish everything.


Today I have another card I made using the Delightfully Detailed Memories and More cards. The large cards are 4 x 6 inches in size, so they are bigger than you need for a regular card front. You can use the Memories and More Cards and Envelopes, but I decided to use a regular card base. I just trimmed it to 3 5/8 x 5 1/8 to fit my card base and that gave me an extra piece to use to add a border to my greeting piece.
The Memories and More card was Blackberry Bliss and I have used Mint Macaron and Grapefruit Grove as my other colours. I used the Tropical Thinlits to cut and layer my leaves, and the greeting is from the Beautiful Day stamp set.

Futurist Cinema
Scala Cinema
Located on London Road in the city centre, a few yards east from the now demolished Odeon (ex Paramount). The 580-seat Electra Palace Theatre was opened on 30th May 1911. It was designed by architectural firm J.L. Langford & Slater. In the early-1920's it was re-named London Road Picture House and was soon renamed Alhambra Cinema.
In 1932 it was taken over by the Regent Enterprises Ltd. chain and was re-modelled to the plans of architectural firm Gray & Evans who added a 290-seat balcony to increase the seating capacity to 820. It re-opened as the King's Picture House on 13th October 1932 with George Arlis in "The Silent Voice". It was equipped with a British Talking Pictures(BTP) sound system. In March 1928 it was taken over by the Southan Morris chain of S.M. Super Cinemas. In October 1954 they were taken over by the Newcastle based Essoldo chain. It was equipped with CinemaScope and the first film to be screened in that process was Spencer Tracy in "Broken Lance". The Essoldo chain closed the King's Picture House on 1st April 1972 with John Wayne in "Chisum" & Efrem Zimbalist Jr. in "Cosa Nostra, Arch Enemy of the FBI".
On 4th April 1972 it re-opened as the Curzon Cinema Club, showing uncensored sex films. The Tatler Cinema Club moved from its Church Street location into this cinema and it was re-named Tatler Cinema Club from 22nd December 1972 until 18th November 1979, still screening adult movies. Tatler Cinema Clubs were operated by the London based Classic Cinemas chain and this Tatler was re-named Classic Cinema and it played double bills of (X) Certificate films until 24th August 1980. The seating capacity had been reduced to 327. It then went back to uncensored sex films and was re-named Eros Cinema Club which operated until August 1981 when it was closed down by Liverpool City Council who objected to the type of films being screened. The building stood derelict for several years until it was eventually demolished and retail has now been built on the site.

Openreach insists engineer abuse linked to 5G must stop
Engineers working on the phone and broadband network are being wrongly accused of installing 5G
An increase in abuse directed at Openreach engineers, largely due to a mistaken belief they're working on 5G, is hampering essential work to keep the North connected.
Openreach is the UK's largest phone and broadband network – used by customers of BT, Sky, Plusnet, TalkTalk and many more - and plays a leading role in connecting the region's essential public services including GP surgeries, pharmacies, emergency services, and food distribution outlets.
But recently, there has been an increase in incidents across the UK involving engineers, of which there are around 7,000 in the North, being subjected to mindless verbal abuse and intimidation linked to a bogus 5G theory.
The vast majority of these relate to theories circulating on social media channels that 5G is responsible for the coronavirus crisis. Mobile phone masts across the country have also been targeted in arson attacks as conspiracists claim the electromagnetic waves of the network have somehow induced the pandemic.
In the North and across the rest of the UK, dozens of engineers have been intimidated, including having bottles of water thrown at them, threatened with physical harm, warnings that the Openreach network will be damaged, a huge amount of verbal abuse, including pretending to shoot at them with a gun hand gesture.
Incidents against Openreach engineers in the North have taken place in locations such as Gateshead, Bolton, Preston, Liverpool, Rochdale, Bradford and Greater Manchester.
Robert Thorburn, Openreach's regional partnership director for the North, said: "These recent attacks on our engineers, here and elsewhere in the UK, is not only deeply concerning but totally misjudged. They're playing a vital role in connecting crucial public services, vulnerable customers and millions of friends, families and businesses. They are not working on installing 5G.
"Our engineers are designated key workers and closely following government guidance in terms of social distancing. At this time, they're primarily focussed on the build, repair and maintenance of connections that support critical national infrastructure.
"This work includes the NHS – where our engineers have been installing and upgrading phone and broadband services in support of the new Nightingale hospitals, including in Manchester, Harrogate and Sunderland."
Openreach engineers receive guidance and support in how to respond to any threats by members of the public where they feel unsafe and all incidents are reported to both an internal security team and the Police if necessary.
As designated key workers, engineers are still carrying out nationally critical work, building new full fibre networks out in the street, but they won't be entering customer's homes unless there is a vulnerable customer without service.
All of this important work is helping to keep the Openreach's broadband network running smoothly. Since the stay at home restrictions were introduced, we've seen an increase of between 20-25 per cent in internet usage across the North.
This increase is mainly during daytime hours as more people are working from home and home schooling.

As you age, don't ignore changes in your vision and overall eye health. Human vision changes during every stage of life, from infancy through old age, so it's important to have a familiarity with the most common types of changes so you know what to expect and when you should be concerned. If you have children, for example, make sure you understand that their ability to focus, see color, judge depth and remember what they see will develop throughout childhood, which means early eye exams should be focused solely on ruling out potential vision problems or abnormal eyesight.
Adulthood often brings unwelcome vision changes that are usually side effects of presbyopia (a natural hardening of the eye lens that makes it difficult to clearly focus on nearby objects). The most common complaints are slight blurring and the inability to read without a lot of light, but most of these issues can be treated by making simple lifestyle changes like wearing reading glasses.
Approximately half of all Americans over the age of 65 develop cataracts, or a clouding of the eye lens. Cataracts can lead to blindness if left untreated, but they can usually be removed through surgery.
Also known as AMD, macular degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in American senior citizens. There's no cure for the disorder, but early diagnosis and treatment can slow or stabilize its progression.
A group of diseases caused by high pressure within the eye, glaucoma can damage eye nerves, cause blind spots or tunnel vision and, if left untreated, lead to irreversible blindness. Having an annual eye exam is the best way to detect glaucoma before it becomes untreatable with medication, surgery or laser therapy.
These microscopic fibers reside in eye fluid and appear as tiny shadows, spots or flecks in your vision. Most eye floaters are harmless and don't need to be treated, but if your floaters are accompanied by flashes of light or loss of vision, you could have a torn retina.
Q: Will you accept my insurance?
A: We accept various insurance plans, and we'll let you know beforehand which services are covered under your insurance policy.
Q: Is there a way to keep my eyesight from getting worse?
A: Yes, there are several ways to keep your eyes healthy throughout your life. For example, we can implement strategies to protect against dry eye, macular degeneration and other diseases. Nutritional health and exercise are also important for avoiding those types of issues.
Q: Can I wear contacts if I have astigmatism?
A: Some optometrists say no, but when there's enough astigmatism it should be corrected to provide optimal vision. If you come in for an eye exam, we'll come up with a plan for your specific situation.
Q: Are over-the-counter eye drops safe to use?
A: It depends. Some people use eye drops to treat red eye, but that may be a sign of something more serious such as an infection or even glaucoma. Overusing eye drops can also be a problem, because they contain preservatives that may cause eye irritation. Most over-the-counter eye drops are fine for occasionally treating red eye, but you should see a doctor if you're regularly experiencing red eye or other eye problems.
Q: Should I be concerned with little spots in my eye that move around?
A: Those spots are typically minor consequences of aging, but they could also be early signs of retinal detachment, so you should get an eye exam as soon as possible.
Q: Is there anything I can do to reduce eyestrain while working on my computer?
A: If you find you're experiencing eye strain, headaches or fatigue while working on a computer, having a specialty pair of glasses that are optimized for computer work can help. People who work on computers tend to not blink as much as they should, so being conscious about blinking more often and using artificial tears sparingly can help. Also, taking breaks from work can be very beneficial. Try the '20/20/20 rule'—every 20 minutes, take a 20 second break and look 20 feet away.

Another method is called orthokeratology: an exciting technology that utilizes corrective contact lenses. Worn during sleep, the lenses temporarily reshape the cornea and help reduce refractive errors. Studies have shown this method to slow down nearsightedness by as much as 50 percent. Besides its effectiveness, the primary benefit of this method is that the lenses can be removed in the morning so they don't interfere with the child's daily activities.
A third treatment method utilizes an eye drop called atropine, which dilates the pupil and relaxes the eyes' focusing mechanism. Researchers have found that using very low doses of atropine can be effective in diminishing the symptoms of nearsightedness with minimal side effects.
SAN BRUNO — Host, Sarah Rutan: If you or your children suffer from Myopia, or nearsightedness, it's important to know your options so that you can keep your eyes from getting worse. Today we're in San Bruno with Diamond Certified Expert Contributor Dr. Thomas Aller to learn more.
Diamond Certified Expert Contributor, Dr. Thomas Aller: Previously it was thought that with nearsightedness, or myopia, once a child gets nearsighted they just get worse and worse. There's nothing you can do about it, and that is how nearsightedness is treated by most doctors all around the world.
There's been a revolution lately over the last five to 10 years certainly, and we found that there are, indeed, things that can be done to keep eyes from getting worse and worse. There are four different ways that this can be done with all with good research behind it.
One technique is to use certain types of eyeglasses, bifocals. They're especially effective for certain types of kids, but that can be determined during an eye exam. The research that I've done has to do with bifocal contact lenses. Bifocal contact lenses slow down nearsightedness by 50 to 90% as been shown in multiple studies all around the world.
Then there's orthokeratology, which is an exciting technology where you wear a contact lens while you're sleeping. You take it off in the morning and you can see without them. So, kids really like that. They can swim and do sports and don't have to worry about anything. But what's really interesting about that technique is kids that wear that type of lens when they take them off, their vision doesn't worsen as quickly also. So, that's been shown to slow down nearsightedness by 50%. So, in the same range as bifocal contacts, although sometimes one works better than the other.
And there is a treatment using an eye drop called atropine. I don't use that that often. It's being done very frequently in Asia. What's really fascinating about atropine, which is an eye drop that dilates the pupil, is they found that if you use super-low doses, it actually works very well and has very low side effect, but I don't use it that often. But there are ways to stop kids' eyes from getting worse and worse.

Despite a substantial boost in export incentives offered by the Ethiopian government, revenues from the country's export sector have registered a considerable decline since 2011. Business Consultant Melaku Kinfegebriel attributes this discrepancy to the misuse of incentives.
In recent years, one of the primary goals of the Ethiopian government has been to boost the country's export revenues primarily by offering incentives to manufacturers and foreign buyers. Numerically, the incentives offered by the government in 2016 amounted to a value of over $3 billion.
This value has more than doubled since 2011, when government incentives for exporters amounted to just over $1 billion. Incentives for manufacturers have taken many shapes and forms, including tax concessions on machinery and the import of capital goods, in addition to the waiving of export taxes.
Nevertheless, these incentives have failed to produce any tangible benefits, given that the export revenues for Ethiopia have fallen since 2011. Exports in 2016 generated revenues amounting to nearly $2.9 billion, whereas export revenues in 2011 stood at over $3.1 billion, as per the Ministry of Trade & Industry.
According to Melaku Kinfegebriel – Business Consultant at Noble Consulting – there is an intuitive reason for this discrepancy. "There could be many reasons for the failure of Ethiopia's incentives to boost its foreign currency earrings. But in general these figures tell us that the incentives have been misused," says Kinfegebriel.
"Either those engaged in the manufacturing sector and got those incentives are not exporting as they promised. They could be focusing in the local market. Or even if they are exporting they are maybe engaged in under-invoicing and contraband border trading, which reduce the amount of foreign currency coming to Ethiopia," he continued.
However, Kinfegebriel concedes that there could be several reasons for the falling revenues, including fraud. "Or the companies didn't go operational at all, which means some were fake established only targeting the incentives. In my opinion, the reasons could be the sum of all these and other factors," he added.
The problem is of particular significance to Ethiopia, given that its unique market structure is heavily reliant on the export of agricultural produce such as fruits, vegetables, tea, coffee, as well as wax & oil seeds, cereals and spices. The primary barrier to a shift towards manufacturing has been a shortage of power in the country, something that the government has been focused on rectifying.

How the MCAT Works
Scoring the MCAT
Approximately 30 days after taking the exam, you'll receive an official MCAT score report with four separate scores for each section of the test. The multiple-choice sections are given a "scaled" score from one to 15. Since there are many more than 15 questions in each of those sections, the score does not represent a "raw" tally of right and wrong answers. Instead, it is weighted to reflect the difficulty of the test questions.
Every MCAT exam contains slightly different questions of varying difficulty. Your scaled score reflects the difficulty of the questions you answered correctly. Therefore, it's possible for two people with very different raw scores to get the same scaled score. The goal is to create an accurate assessment of overall skill level of the test-taker. The same test-taker would be expected to receive the same scaled score on any specific MCAT exam, even if his raw scores are different [source: AAMC].
Each of the two essays in the writing section is scored twice, once by a human reader and once by a computer. Each essay is assigned a raw score from one to six. Those four raw scores (two for each essay) are added up to a total raw score. The total raw score is then converted to an alphabetic scale from J though T, with J being the lowest score and T the highest (presumably A through F was too boring...).
The average MCAT score on each of the three multiple-choice sections is eight and the average score of the writing section is O [source: The Princeton Review]. That average scores goes up considerably depending on the competitiveness of the medical school. The average accepted student to Harvard Medical School, for example, scores an 11 on Verbal Reasoning, 12 on Physical Sciences, 12 on Biological Sciences and Q for the Writing Sample [source: The Princeton Review].
You can send your MCAT scores directly to the schools to which you're applying through the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS). Once you register online for the service, your latest scores will be automatically sent to the schools of your choice.
If you want to send your scores to a school that doesn't participate in the AMCAS, you can access the online MCAT Testing History System (MCAT THx) with your AAMC ID and specify the schools to which you want to send your scores or print out a score report and send them by mail [source: AAMC].

Plagues in the Nation, forthcoming from Beacon Press, is a narrative history of America through major outbreaks. The book examines how law and government affected the outcome of the epidemics that struck America, and how those outbreaks have in turn shaped our government. Using the story of the efforts to contain Ebola and COVID-19, Polly Price presents a fascinating history that has never been fully explored.
Polly J. Price, Asa Griggs Candler Professor of Law, is also Professor of Global Health in the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University.
Well, it's official. A presidential administration that left U.S. citizens to sink or swim when facing the worst pandemic in a century has finally admitted what we already knew. It has given up.

If you were swept away by the athleticism, the drama, the heart of the Winter Olympics, head to the closest mountain (or rink or icy skeleton track) and see if you've got what it takes. Across the country, you can take lessons from Olympic skiers, sleep in an Olympian's home — actually, it's a hotel, and his parents own it — and put yourself at the mercy of ice, snow and gravity at high rates of speed.
At Utah Olympic Park, you can bobsled like it's 2002 — the year that this world-class recreational facility in Park City hosted combined events of bobsled, skeleton, luge and Nordic skiing during the Olympics and Paralympic Winter Games. Now, the facility is an official U.S. Olympic Training Site that also offers lessons to the public. In the winter, wannabe bobsledders can rocket through the track at speeds of more than 60 mph while a professional driver handles the steering (and braking). Throughout the season, you can spot Olympic athletes flying through the air as they practice their aerial and Nordic jumps. When they're not using the jump, it opens up to adrenalin-junkie tubers. About 35 miles west of Park City is another venue built for the 2002 Winter Olympics. At Utah Olympic Oval, those who aspire to the heights of Mirai Nagasu can learn to figure skate, speed skate, play hockey and curl.
The staff at the National Ability Center in Park City thinks that everyone should be able to enjoy recreational activities, whether they're a skier with a visual impairment training for the Paralympics or a child with a developmental disability trying snowboarding for the first time. The nonprofit organization offers adaptive programs in an array of winter sports, including snowshoeing, Nordic and Alpine skiing, snowboarding and sled hockey.
The Waldorf Astoria Park City — which has its own dedicated chairlift with heated seats to keep you warm on your way up the mountain — is offering Winter Games-inspired packages. Its "Winter Games concierge" can help visitors plan activities including dogsledding and curling, and can even connect guests with former Olympians such as freestyle skier Nate Roberts for skiing and bobsledding lessons, and city tours.
During the 2010 Winter Paralympics, which opened in Vancouver, B.C., the town of Whistler, about 75 miles north, hosted a mix of events, including Alpine skiing, cross-country skiing and biathlon, Olympic Nordic combined, ski jumping, bobsled, luge and skeleton. Today, visitors can whip around the world's fastest track on a bobsled or skeleton at the Whistler Sliding Center, and try their hand at lower-key endeavors — such as biathlon (cross-country skiing meets rifle shooting), tobogganing, snow shoeing and cross-country skiing — at Whistler Olympic Park. Plus, there are free ice skating and family après events at Whistler Olympic Plaza. Hilton Whistler Resort & Spa, in Whistler Village, offers stay-and-ski packages, and can coordinate private lessons with Whistler Blackcomb Snow School, where guests can take lessons from former Olympians, including Ashleigh McIvor (the first gold medal winner of women's ski cross in 2010), Mike and Britt Janyk (sibling alpine skiers) and Rob Boyd, an award-winning skier.
Home to the Winter Olympics not once, but twice (in 1932 and 1980), Lake Placid, N.Y., continues to draw thrill seekers to the Adirondack Mountains. At the Olympics Sports Complex, speed demons relish the thrill of the bobsled as passengers behind a professional driver with the Lake Placid Bobsled Experience on Mount Van Hoevenberg. Feeling brave? Go solo on the Lake Placid Skeleton Experience and hurtle along slick ice on a tiny sled at up to 30 mph. Visitors also can try skiing, snowboarding, ice skating, and biathlon. For more passive but still exhilarating entertainment, head over to the Olympic Jumping Complex, where you can watch skiers take flight. While there, you can stay in the "second home" of an Olympian: Mirror Lake Inn Resort and Spa is owned by Ed and Lisa Weibrecht, parents of Olympic skier and medalist Andrew Weibrecht, whose bronze and silver medals in super-G are out on display. (Selfies are encouraged.) Another fun fact: In 1932, the Norwegian ski team rented out the inn and stayed there during the Winter Games.
The Muskegon Winter Sports Complex, which is in a state park on the shore of Lake Michigan in the town of Muskegon, Mich., gives beginners a run for their money. The luge track, which was designed by three-time Olympian Frank Masley, was built to introduce the general public to the sport. While Olympic lugers may hit the 70- and 80-mph ranges on pro tracks, lugers on this track reach up to about 30 mph. The facility regularly hosts public luge clinics to train people 8 and up on techniques and safety. (Lest you think it's all child's play, proof of health insurance and a signed waiver are required.) For non-lugers, there are miles of lighted cross-country ski trails, snowshoe trails through snow-covered sand dunes, sledding and ice skating.
Bars and other places are cashing in on the quirky world of curling, which involves sliding a hefty stone across ice toward the house (a giant bull's eye) while teammates use brooms to sweep in front of the stone.
Kaiser Tiger, a gastropub in Chicago, has three curling rinks open in its beer garden, alongside firepits where servers deliver bacon s'mores and hot whiskey drinks. For more serious lessons, curling clubs across the country welcome in newbies. Chicago Curling Club (where this writer has trained) offers Learn2Curl events throughout the winter, introducing adults 21 and up to the art of sweeping, delivery and broomstacking — the celebratory booze session shared at the end of a game.
Maybe you couldn't travel to PyeongChang this year, but you can still get your own Olympics on by planning a trip to the nearest ski mountain or curling club.


The paintings, prints, and sculptures in this new exhibition, drawn from the permanent collection of the BYU Museum of Art, speak of the many frontiers on which America has been and continues to be formed. They are cultural, ideological, as well as physical frontiers, symbolic spaces where powerful ideas constantly rush into each other in a vast river—against which, and within which, America explores its potential.
While each artwork tells its own story, they are gathered in thematic groups as though in dialog, in conversation. We invite you to join in the conversation, to commune with our collection and explore the frontiers of America's land and peoples, of economic potential and division, frontiers of freedom and conflict, frontiers in which America's power is most evident not in what it is, but in what it is still becoming.
