Home security systems can provide a powerful deterrent. They send the message that yours isn't the weakest house on the block and give crooks a strong incentive to target another place.
You'll pay about $35 to $75 a month in monitoring fees for that peace of mind, but home security systems also save you money: Insurers will shave 5% to 20% off your premiums every year you own your home. With an average national premium of $800, according to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, that means a basic security system can pay for itself in as little as three years.
Sign me up, you say. Not so fast. Before you call an installer, take the time to give your doors, windows, and other entry points a thorough once-over (see posts I - IV, links in the right column). It doesn't pay to install new security equipment if you need to upgrade your doors and locks. Once you've completed your security audit and addressed the places where your house is most vulnerable, it's time to get estimates from security companies.
Home security systems typically consist of a keypad mounted in the entryway that communicates with smaller contact sensors and motion detectors attached to doors and windows around the house. The brains of the system--the control panel--is installed in the attic or utility room.
If an intruder breaks a window or kicks in a door, the sensor sends signals to the control panel, which in turn uses your phone line to contact an off-site monitoring station staffed by security personnel. (It also sets off an ear-splitting siren.) Staffers ring the house right away and prompt you or your family members to provide a password. If there's no response, or if the person who picks up the phone gives the incorrect password, they'll notify local law enforcement.
Equipment costs vary widely, from around $250 to as much as $700, depending on the options you choose. Some security companies may offer a basic package at a deep discount, or even for free, just to get your business.
After all, they make their real money on the monthly monitoring fee, which ensures that someone is keeping an eye on your home 24/7, even when you're not around or out of town.
You may have a choice between hiring a national firm or a local company. Do you want the monitoring center to be in an entirely different state or just around the corner? The national firms boast that their call centers are fully redundant, which means if a center in OshKosh loses power, the center in Vancouver can pick up the slack.
Nevertheless, some home-security pros, like Chris McGoey, of Los Angeles-based McGoey Security Consulting, think it's better to go with local installers, who may have more experience with the equipment than a representative of a large national firm.
"Choose someone in your area who's been in the business at least 10 years," he says. If you go local, however, it's smart to quiz your provider about what provisions it has made in case, say, a blizzard shuts down power or a bug going around your local schools sidelines half their staff.
A typical approach is to run all wires into the attic or utility room, and tie them into the main electric box and the local phone company line. A battery backup is usually available in case you lose power.
Another option is to go completely wireless. In this case, every component of the system, including the keypad and control panel, houses its own AAA or lithium battery that provides just enough power to enable it to communicate with a remote cellular network. If you're a mobile-only family without a hard-wired phone line, have a VOIP phone, or if you live in an older house, you might be a good candidate for a wireless system. You'll need to check if this technology is available in your area. If it is, you may pay slightly more to install it.
Sensors or detectors can be added to the system to address just about any household danger, from fire to flood to carbon monoxide poisoning. Elderly homeowners can even get a wearable "panic button" that will communicate with the control panel in case they fall or need assistance.
"Consumers want these extras," says Bob Tucker, a spokesman for ADT Security, an industry leader. Just bear in mind that each add-on will up the cost of the system and push your monthly monitoring fee toward the top end of the range.
Burglars don't defeat security systems; homeowners do. If you view the system as a nuisance, or only use it when you're away on vacation, you're more likely to forget how to operate it and inadvertently trigger a false alarm. That can result in fines from your local law enforcement agency. Resolve to learn how to arm your system, use it daily, and teach your kids as well.
Report your new installation to your insurance company to claim your discounted premium. And don't forget to affix stickers and signs broadcasting your new system in your windows and front yard. "That's 90% of the deterrent right there," says McGoey. "That sign in your yard tells an intruder that he could potentially set off an alarm."

Making a home 100% burglar-proof is not totally impossible, but it would be outrageously expensive and overshoot the target (more on that in an upcoming post–stay tuned).
Certainly a professional home security system can prevent losses.
Equipment that you use solely for business may not be covered at all by your homeowner's policy, necessitating a separate commercial policy. The cost of these policies varies widely, depending on the type of work you do and the value of the items. Equipment on loan from your employer, such as an office laptop, should be covered under your employer's policy.
There are two types of computers users: those who lost data and those who will loose data.
So are you are currently backing up your data to an external hard drive? If you are, good for you. But you can't rest there. If you lost both computer and backup drive to theft or fire, you'd be SOL (...out of luck). Use a cloud-based storage such as DropBox, Wuala, Spideroak or Sugarsync, or a service like CrashPlan, which charges $100 a year to constantly back up all your critical data to a remote server.
Another inexpensive option is off-site storage, where you back up to a rotating number of external hard drives, such as small portable a 1 TB (T stands for truckload of storage... just kidding) USB3 drive by WD, recently offered at Costco for $89. Keep at least one drive always off-site, means in another location not afflicted by the chaos that befell your house.
Paper documents are slightly trickier than the digital variety, because they're usually one-of-a-kind. That's why important data–insurance policies, Social Security cards, passports, auto titles, a list of your family's credit card numbers, etc.–should be stored off-site in a safe deposit box ($50 to $75 a year), or in a fireproof safe bolted to your basement slab. Better is to scan these documents as a PDF to keep them handy, but be sure to back up the digital versions, too.
Bear in mind that digital media, such as DVDs and CDs, can still melt in a fireproof safe. Media safes constructed by companies such as FireKing are built to block heat transfer, but only for a certain time and you'll pay for the extra protection. A 650-pound, 1.5-cubic-foot safe that can hold 140 CDs might run you $3,000; smaller ones that hold 20 CDs cost about $400. (I have once seen a whole house burn down, and I bet a safe with 2 or 4 hours of fire protection won't cut it. That's why I prefer off-site storage).
Backups are fine, but they won't keep prying eyes off your data if your computer is stolen. Most computers have built-in security features--controlled via their system preferences panel--that you probably aren't using. For example, you can drag your most sensitive data into a single password-protected folder. And you should, by all means, "disable automatic login" so the computer can't boot up or wake up from sleep without a password.
If you want to go whole hog, activate your built-in encryption program (comes with Mac OS X as well as Windows 7) or install a third-party program such as the free download TrueCrypt that will scramble every file on your computer. Without the password, no one can access a single file.
The downside: If you lose or forget the password, adios data. If you're not comfortable with high-tech data security measures, then the best advice is probably the simplest: Install a solid office door with a good lock. And don't forget the office windows (see previous installment).
Electronic equipment that you use every day should be plugged into surge protectors ($40 and up). These devices, which look like high-end power strips, guard against occasional fluctuations in electricity coming from your local power company, or from electrical appliances cycling on and off inside the house.
Surge protectors can't make up for improper wiring or insufficient power coming into the house. If you're unsure of your home's power capacity, consider hiring an electrician to do a wiring inspection. Ask him to check how many amps your electrical panel carries (200 amps is typical of most modern homes).
Even if a wiring upgrade isn't in order, ask him to clamp a whole-house surge protector onto your electrical panel and to any other incoming transmission lines, such as cable or data lines. These units, which cost between $200 and $300 installed, can stop a 40,000-amp surge in its tracks.
Not even a top-of-the-line surge protector, however, can guard against a direct lighting strike. As an added measure, unplug all sensitive appliances during a lightning storm, or if you're leaving your home for a lengthy period of time.
Have a happy and relaxed Labor Day weekend!

Can we talk? Privately. Over here, out of range of the closed circuit camera and certainly not by cell phone. By e-mail, forget it. Big Brother and Big Sister are watching us closer than photo radar on the highway. Every bit that you are sending by BlackBerry or byte that you are receiving on your I-phone is being recorded for posterity and beyond. There's a better chance of radioactive waste being returned to pure ground water than there is of your private and privileged information being kept private or privileged.
Let's face it when the cable company asks you for your social insurance number they are just doing that out of courtesy. They already have it. And when the bank asks you to fill out forms for that car loan, they don't need the information from you. They just want to know if you're lying.
Everyday at work we send hundreds of documents, comments, recipes from Aunt Ellie, and not entirely politically correct jokes that our sister who works in a correctional institute has just gotten from the guards who got them from. You know where they got them. And we pretend to each other that nobody know what is going on behind the beige five foot high dividers that separate us from our partners in crime.
So all this talk about privacy at work and people getting up on their high horses about invasions and other such nonsense has me more than a little confused. Yes there are court cases being presented all over the country about the proper ways in which an employer can monitor the electronic practices of their employees. And yes there will be precedents set and guidelines developed and sent out. But all of that has little bearing on the real world, unless you happen to be a lawyer for anyone involved in these cases.
The facts are these. If you work for an employer and you use their equipment, services, connections or network you are already being monitored, legally. They have the right to determine access and to determine the rules of engagement. You can argue, after the fact, that you weren't informed, that you didn't know, that you would have been more careful…. Stop it, right now.
You are being monitored. As you read this. If you don't like it…. Switch it off. That is your only option. Once you turn your computer or smart phone on your boss will be there. Think of it as a party line. And they own the party.

Q: Why does Ruby have zip and transpose when they do the same thing? They seem to do the same thing.
g = [{ a: "A" }, { b: "B" }]
r = [{ x: "X" }, { y: "Y" }]

g.zip(r)        # => [[{:a=>"A"}, {:x=>"X"}], [{:b=>"B"}, {:y=>"Y"}]]
[g,r].transpose # => [[{:a=>"A"}, {:x=>"X"}], [{:b=>"B"}, {:y=>"Y"}]]

Why have both methods?

A: #transpose Assumes that self is an array of arrays and transposes the rows and columns.
#zip assumes self can be any Enumerable object.
More differences are here
a = [12,11,21]
b = [1,2]

[a,b].transpose # transpose': element size differs (2 should be 3) (IndexError)
a.zip(b) # => [[12, 1], [11, 2], [21, nil]]
b.zip(a) # => [[1, 12], [2, 11]]

That to apply the #transpose method a and b should be of the same size. But for applying #zip, it is not needed b to be of the same size of a, ie b and a can be of any of size.
With #zip, the resultant array size will always be the size of self. With #transpose the resulting array size will be any of the inner array's size of self.

Q: Problemas em transformar .py para .exe do meu projeto de reconhecer imagens com opencv Eu tenho um projeto de reconhecer imagens usando opencv, separei ele em 3 pacotes mais o código da interface gráfica em tkinter que controla a ativação. Ele funciona normalmente, mas quando transformo para .exe da erro de execução (usei pyinstaller, auto-py-to-exe, cx_Freeze e sempre o mesmo). Segue meu código principal:
from tkinter import *
from Bot import play
from PIL import Image, ImageTk

bo = False

def loop():
    if bo:
        play.bot()
    root.after(750, loop)

def eventstart():
    global bo
    bg.config(image=img2)
    bstart.forget()
    bstop.pack(side=TOP)
    bo = True

def eventstop():
    global bo
    bo = False
    bg.config(image=img1)
    bstop.forget()
    bstart.pack(side=TOP)

root = Tk()

bo = False
root.wm_attributes("-topmost", 1)
root.geometry('300x200+0+0')
root.title('BOTFT')
root.iconbitmap('FindObjects/Images/Icon/icon.ico')
img1 = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("FindObjects/Images/Background/bg1.png"))

bsett = Button(frame, text='Settings', width=8, height=2)
bg.pack(side=LEFT)
frame.pack(side=RIGHT)
bstart.pack(side=TOP)
bsett.pack(side=BOTTOM)

root.after(750, loop)
root.mainloop()

A função play, no pacote Bot, executa varias funções do modulo Find, que está dentro do Pacote FindObjects. Dentro do FindObjects também estão todas as imagens que estão dentro do pacote Images, que também tem o modulo com funções que tira screenshots e armazena na pasta Screenshots dentro de Images. Além disso tem um pacote de ferramentas onde defino funções para usar opencv, pywin32, etc. com mais facilidade. Tenho alguns modulos e pacotes, posso não estar entendendo como juntar tudo isso em um exe.

Boys of Sumer: Nasir and Clarence – by Kamillia Scott
By: Sarah Linn
This is part of a series of three blog posts by the 2015-2016 Penn Museum Fellows. The Penn Museum Fellows program is a new initiative that aims to support and promote advanced undergraduate research at the Penn Museum.
As a Penn Museum Fellow I have worked with an abundance of materials in the Archives, and the stories that I uncover are often unique and entertaining. "The Boys of Sumer: Discovery in Mesopotamia" archival exhibition tells many stories of the Museum's earliest expedition to Nippur. Among these is the case of Nasir el Hussein, an exceptional individual in the eyes of his American counterparts.
Nasir was a 19-year-old Bedouin tribesman commissioned by John Henry Haynes in the city of Hillah to work on the Museum's fourth expedition to Nippur, as a basket-carrier, in 1899. According to an article by the Philadelphia Press, Nasir's mastery of the Arabic language intrigued Penn Museum archaeologists Herman Hilprecht and Clarence Fisher. He was soon promoted to assist in the survey work of Clarence Fisher and Valentine Geere. As a reward for his service, Nasir and Clarence went on a tour of the world which ended here in Philadelphia. Their travels included a two-month tour of Turkey before journeying to Aleppo and North Africa. They most likely reached the Mediterranean, traveled to Europe, and finally to Philadelphia where Nasir mystified the local press. Charmed by his childlike fascination and confusion with American customs, his compatriots seemed to find Nasir surprisingly "civilized," having been an educated, hard-working, and free enterprising individual who was proud of his independence. As a subject to no government other than tribal chiefs, Nasir says, "We roam about Arabia at our own will and live by raising and selling camels, horses, sheep and goats".
"Bedouin of the Desert Comes to Philadelphia." Philadelphia Press, November 4, 1900.
When I realized Nasir had been a basket carrier for the excavation, I wondered if his service was recorded elsewhere in the Nippur correspondence. Clarence Fisher only speaks vaguely about his work with the Arabs at Nippur in his daily journals. However, I was able to uncover a February 1899 workmen's time book that lists Nasir's perfect attendance record. You might notice the newspaper article spells the tribesman's name Nasir el Hussein, while in the workmen's time book he is listed as Nasr el Hussein omitting the "i." You can see the news clipping, time book, and more for a limited time in the Archives corridor of the Penn Museum.

The Black Rabbit Bar (91 Greenpoint Ave) is easily one of the most visually appealing bars in all of Brooklyn–a softly lit, atmospheric wood-paneled den with a narrow, rail car-style interior and a tranquil, leafy backyard. A portrait of the tavern's namesake, the Rabbit himself (the owner's Irish grandfather), hangs in a prominent position on the wall. Perhaps the most distinctive feature is the private booths with swinging, hinged double doors, evoking the entrance of a "Wild West" era saloon. This is perhaps a misleading comparison, as bartender and owner Kent Lanier claims there has never been a fight on the premises (something he partly attributes to the purposeful lack of Red Bull or Jagermeister in the pub).


Understanding Suzan-Lori Parks is a critical study of a playwright and screenwriter who was the first African American woman to receive the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Suzan-Lori Parks is also the recipient of a MacArthur Genius Award, a Whiting Writers Award, a CalArts/Alpert Award in the Arts, two Obie Awards, and a Eugene McDermott Award in the Arts. In this book Jennifer Larson examines how Parks, through the innovative language and narratives of her extensive body of work, investigates and invigorates literary and cultural history. Larson discusses all of Parks's genres—play, screenplay, essay, and novel—closely reading key texts from Parks's more experimental earlier pieces as well as her more linear later narratives. Larson's study begins with a survey of Parks's earliest and most difficult texts including Imperceptible Mutabilities in the Third Kingdom and The Death of the Last Black Man in the Whole Entire World. Larson then analyzes Venus, In the Blood, and the Lincoln Plays: The America Play and the Pulitzer Prize–winning TopDog/Underdog. Larson also discusses two of Parks's most important screenplays, Girl 6 and Their Eyes Were Watching God. In interpreting these screenplays, Larson examines film's role in the popularization and representation of African American culture and history. These essays suggest an approach to all genres of literature and blend creativity, form, culture, and history into a revisionary aesthetic that allows for no identity or history to remain fixed, with Parks arguing that in order to be relevant they must all be dynamic and democratic.

MH-Susceptibility and Operating Room Personnel: Defining the Risks
MHAUS Recommendations
How To Be Prepared
Managing A Crisis
After A Crisis

What is the MH Hotline?
MHAUS Snippets
Posted in 2012
The contraindications for the administration of succinylcholine and the potent volatile inhalational anesthetics to Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptible (MHS) individuals are well documented and defined. However, there are no published data on risks to these individuals associated with environmental exposure to waste gases in the operating room.
In recent years, the question has been raised whether or not MHS individuals or their relatives are at greater risk than the general population to operating room environmental exposures. Since there are no clinical trials that have addressed this question, nor is it likely that such protocol would receive IRB approval, the Malignant Hyperthermia Association of the United States (MHAUS) convened a group of experts to develop a Consensus Statement to guide clinicians in providing recommendations to MHS families.
Background: MH is a life-threatening pharmacogenetic disorder triggered by the administration of commonly used volatile anesthetics (halothane, enflurane, isoflurane, desflurane, and sevoflurane), the depolarizing muscle relaxant succinylcholine, or both (1). Clinical presentation of the disorder is highly variable, but there is strong evidence that fulminant MH episodes result from a rapid sustained rise in myoplasmic calcium caused by fundamental defect in the ability of muscle to regulate calcium (2). A fulminant MH episode consists of a hypermetabolic crisis manifesting as metabolic and respiratory acidosis, tachycardia, cardiac arrhythmias, skeletal muscle rigidity, and rhabdomyolysis. The incidence of anesthetic-related episodes of MH is between 1 in 15,000 in children and 1 in 50,000 in adults (3). Suspicion of MHS is based on family history of the disorder, or on a history of adverse clinical events during anesthesia suggestive of the syndrome. Since most often MHS is inherited as a dominant trait, when MH is diagnosed in one family member, all first-degree relatives are treated as MHS, despite there being only a 50% probability of transmission of a mutant gene in each individual case. To diagnose an individual's risk of MHS, the in vitro contracture test (CHCT) and the caffeine-halothane contracture test (CHCT) have been developed and standardized by European and North American MU study groups, respectively (4, 5). Significant progress has been made in the last decade in developing a genetic test as an alternative to the invasive muscle biopsy required to perform the IVCT or CHCT (6). While the gene responsible for MH susceptibility in ~50-70% of families is known to be that of the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor, the calcium release channel in sarcoplasmic reticulum responsible for calcium release during excitation-contraction coupling, the genes responsible for susceptibility in the other 30-50% of MHS families remain elusive at the present time As such, the IVCT or CHCT remain the gold-standard tests for determining MH-susceptibility.

While there is a single report of a suspected episode of MH in a nurse attempting to clean up an isoflurane spill, (7) confirmation by muscle biopsy was never performed, and the level of exposure most likely exceeded that which is commonly experienced in hospital operating rooms (OR). The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) standard for acceptable OR levels of halothane is 2 parts per million (ppm), which is equivalent to 0.0002%. An abstract published by Maccani reported that MH susceptible swine (a species exquisitely more sensitive than human) did not trigger after exposure to 5 ppm halothane (8). Therefore, in the modern OR with high air turnover, low level exposure is unlikely to trigger MH. There are multiple anecdotal reports of MHS individuals, including anesthesia providers, who have worked and thrived for many years in the OR without adverse incidence (9). Conversely, there are no reports of MH episodes in hospital ORs as a consequence of inhaling waste gases.
Environmental gas exposure outside of the operating room
There are reports of MH-like episodes in biopsy proven individuals from environmental exposures outside of the OR due to the inhalation of halogenated gases from fire extinguishers (10) and gasoline vapors (11). It is not recommended that anyone inhale noxious vapors in a closed, poorly ventilated space, especially MHS individuals. MHS laboratory personnel working with vapors should perform such work under a hood. MHS veterinary personnel anesthetizing animals should adhere to the same NIOSH requirements for human hospitals, and avoid prolonged exposure to poorly scavenged mask breathing devices.
Summary: There is no evidence to support restricting the professional choices of MHS individuals; however, caution should be exercised regarding the inhalation of any noxious vapor in a poorly ventilated area.

Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S offers decent specs, a cool design and impressive screen to body ratio. Let us delve into the specs of this phone.
At first glance, the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S has a ceramic build and aluminium frame. The smartphone has highly slimmed down bezels at the top, enough to house the earpiece with barely visible ones at the sides. At the back, the smartphone has an iPhone X type of dual camera arrangement – flash flanked by two cameras arranged vertically at the top left corner. The bottom bezel houses the front camera at the right edge and the navigation buttons.
The display is quite impressive with a 1080p LCD screen in play and a Corning Gorilla Glass 4 for protection against scratches and easy breakage. With a resolution of 2160 X 1080 pixels and a pixel density of 401 ppi and an almost tri bezel-less design. This offer's enough details and impressive colour reproduction although an OLED screen would have a much suitable alternative.
It is powered by a 3, 400mAh, the smartphone that should last a day under normal usage. As for charging, there are two ways; Qi wireless charging and fast charge through the USB Type-C port.
Rather than the single-camera seen in the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2, this new flagship has a dual camera. This is made up of 12MP wide angle lens camera and another 12MP telephoto camera. There is also a 5MP camera at the bottom right.
Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S has the latest Qualcomm processor that ensures smooth and fast performance as well as an impressive graphics munching. That being said, the smartphone is equipped with a Qualcomm SDM845 Snapdragon 845 with eight cores and an Adreno 630 GPU.
On to the next thing, the smartphone is available in different variants from the 6GB RAM & 64GB model to the 6GB & 128GB model and down to the higher 8GB & 256GB model. All the variants does not support memory card extension so you will have to be sure which model you pick. The Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S runs on the latest Android 8.1 Oreo with MIUI 9.5 and a Xiao AI assistant that only works in China.
The Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S can be gotten in various online stores and smartphone retail outlets for 189, 000 naira for the 6GB/64GB model and 2290, 000 naira for the 8GB/256GB.

A circular route from Siena through the Chianti hills provides visitors to Tuscany with a wonderfully scenic and sensory travel experience. The route covers the villages of the Chianti Classico wine region, garnished with ancient castles and rambling farmhouses. The vineyards and wooded hills of the Chianti are best explored along its winding back roads or from within its sleepy hamlets. By car, visitors should keep a lookout for signs marked 'vendita diretta' ('direct sales'). The first stop is at Castello di Brolio, a magnificent vineyard owned by the Ricasoli family since 1167. The SS484 will take you south of Brolio and north past the hamlets of San Gusme, Campi and Linari before rejoining the road for a diversion to the Meleto castle. Another worthwhile stop is at Badia a Coltibuono, for its restaurant and Romanesque church. The winding road west to Radda, in Chianti, is especially picturesque. A further nine miles (15km) from here is the hamlet of Volapia, a delightful place which makes you feel as though you've travelled back in time; as does a visit to sleepy Castellina. Within the ramparts of this walled village is the Bottega del Vino Galla Nero, at Via della Rocca 13, showcasing the region's delectable wines and olive oils. There are many potential detours and attractions in the region and although it is a good idea to pick a few desired stops in advance it is a joy to just get lost in the area.

After announcing plans to lay off some 2,000 employees earlier this month, Yahoo has now confirmed that it will be closing or consolidating fifty of its sites, as well as part of its restructuring plan. "Yahoo has been doing way too much for way too long and was only doing a few things really well," company's CEO Thompson said during an earnings call. "We need to be clearer going forward about what we won't do." Yahoo will shut down or consolidate 50 products that don't "contribute meaningfully" to revenue, according to the Thompson.
"We had way too many people for the amount of output for this business," Thompson said. "A streamlined Yahoo will help us get things done at the pace required. The Yahoo share of US online ad revenues sank to 9.5 percent last year from 15.7 percent in 2009 and will drop further this year, according to eMarketer. "It seems like (Thompson) will take the best parts of old Yahoo and new Yahoo and try to craft a company out of it," said independent Silicon Valley analyst Rob Enderle, noting specifics were still lacking. Thompson didn't specify which properties will be targeted under this new initiative, though he did affirm plans to focus on the company's most popular and ad-friendly outlets, including its News, Finance, Sports and Yahoo Mail platforms.

Two concerts at the Kulturpalast Dresden
On 29 and 30 November Dmitrij Kitajenko will conduct the Dresden Philharmonic at Dresden's Kulturpalast in Tchaikovsky's Manfred Symphony, Prokofiev's Second Violin Concerto with Sergej Krylov as soloist, and excerpts from Aram Khachaturian's Ballet Spartacus.
With Manfred, Tchaikovsky created an outstanding example of the programme symphony, in which a narrative programme is fused with abstract symphonic forms. The classical magazine Pizzicato wrote about Dmitrij Kitajenko's recording for OehmsClassics: "The first movement expresses Manfred's desolate state of mind in a breath-taking way: the orchestra's playing is strikingly dark, sluggish, dull and gains energy when the music rushes in passionate sighs. So much gloomy hopelessness, so much lento lugubre has probably rarely been heard here.
In the two middle movements Kitajenko works with wonderful nuances, but he doesn't want any glamour, nothing positive, and even above the alpine nature scenes there is always a touch of sadness or at least melancholy.
The final movement is passionately agitated and by no means an orchestral showpiece. And again you get goose bumps because of all the tragedy that affects the listener. Even the organ avoids any glamour and is reduced to harmonium effect, as prescribed by Tchaikovsky. Only in the final bars can you feel that Manfred will be forgiven, that death has freed him from his torments."
Prokofiev's Second Violin Concerto is one of the last works the composer wrote before his return to the Soviet Union. Compared to his previous pieces, it shows a tendency towards greater simplicity and clarity of expression and form. Khachaturian's full-length ballet Spartacus was praised by Shostakovich as a work of the highest persuasiveness and emotion.

7 Stocks to Sell or Short Before the Bears Strike
The bulls seem in charge for the moment, but when that changes, these seven stocks will be ripe for profit-taking and short-selling
By Vince Martin, InvestorPlace Contributor Feb 15, 2017, 2:51 pm EDT February 15, 2017
The broader markets are at an all-time high. The Dow Jones Industrial Average finally cleared 20,000 and just kept on rising. Stocks even shrugged off commentary from the Fed on Tuesday that suggests an interest rate hike is imminent. We've now gone nearly eight years without a bear market in U.S. equities.
In short, the bulls are in charge … and that should make investors nervous.
For one, there are plenty of potential catalysts for a correction or even a new bear market. There's tepid growth in the U.S. and overseas, potential political conflict, and a bull market that's a bit long in the tooth. And it's usually when investors gets complacent and/or overconfident that the market reverses.
The bulls might be winning for now — but that usually means the bears are only hibernating.
What's notable about the post-election optimism is that it has led to big gains in a number of high-risk, high-reward stocks. Should caution return to the market, those stocks that had the biggest moves in the bull market usually are first in line to reverse along with broad market sentiment.
7 Tech Stocks That Could Implode at Any Minute
As such, here are seven stocks to sell or short into the ground for profits should the bears attack.
Stocks to Sell or Short Before the Bears Strike: Tesla Inc (TSLA)
One of the market's most divisive stocks is electric car manufacturer Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA).
The bulls see founder and CEO Elon Musk as a visionary, and his automobiles as the perfect combination of performance and environmental responsibility. The bears see a nice idea turned into a company now worth more than $45 billion despite negative cash flow, negative earnings and a series of missed production targets.
The long-term argument won't be settled for some time. But in the near-term, Tesla stock looks potentially risky.
TSLA is within a few hairs of all-time highs thanks to a 55% gain since just the beginning of December. Put another way, Tesla has added roughly $16 billion in market valuation in about 11 weeks.
That puts a lot of pressure on the company to hit production targets, which were moved up last year. It raises the possibility of another equity offering, which could quickly end the rally. And, of course, it leaves TSLA stock seemingly unprotected if broader market sentiment changes — at all.
Stocks to Sell or Short Before the Bears Strike: Arconic (ARNC)
Arconic Inc (NYSE:ARNC) is the renamed Alcoa Inc, which spun off the newly formed Alcoa Corporation (NYSE:AA), which took the old company's name and ticker symbol.
In other words, AA became ARNC — and then gave investors shares of a different "AA."
That might sound confusing, but investors seem to understand the story just fine. Both AA and ARNC shares have risen 70% since the spinoff. Post-election optimism and higher aluminum prices are boosting both stocks.
Arconic, in particular, has benefited of late from a position taken by activist Elliott Management. Elliott has said ARNC is worth anywhere from $33 to $46 per share, against current levels just under $30. And investors might be wise to follow Elliott, who has engineered sales of Qlik Technologies, Riverbed, Informatica and Compuware, among others.
So why place ARNC on your list of stocks to sell right now?
For one, there's a key point to note about that list: It's largely tech-dominated. And ARNC shares already are just about 10% below the bottom end of Elliott's valuation range.
7 Stocks That Will Drop by 10% or More This Quarter
The activist is gearing up for a tough proxy fight, and calling for the removal of CEO Klaus Kleinfeld. This situation likely will take time to play out — perhaps long enough for investor patience to wane, or optimism to wither.
Stocks to Sell or Short Before the Bears Strike: Tronox (TROX)
Chemical company Tronox Ltd (NYSE:TROX) has been one of the best-performing stocks over the past year. Shares are up 381% from 52-week (and all-time) lows of $3 reached last February.
There's some reason for optimism, but a $1.7 billion market cap seems aggressive for Tronox.
This is a company that was flirting with bankruptcy just a year ago. It is saddled with $3 billion in debt. Interest expense through the first nine months of 2016 was almost 9% of revenue.
Pricing for the company's key product, titanium dioxide, admittedly has firmed. But a nearly 400% gain for an unprofitable, indebted company seems to suggest far more improvement. It's not as if TROX shares simply rebounded out of last year's bear market, either. The stock has almost doubled just since Election Day.
Tronox should be among the first stocks to sell for profit-taking purposes if risk returns to the equity markets. Because when investors look more closely at fundamentals, TROX stock could give back those gains in a hurry.
Stocks to Sell or Short Before the Bears Strike: Scientific Games (SGMS)
Scientific Games Corp (NASDAQ:SGMS) is a roll-up of several gaming companies. The original SciGames was the nation's largest provider of lottery systems and scratch-off tickets. But in quick succession, the company bought slot machine manufacturer WMS Industries, and then WMS peer Bally Technologies, which itself had just acquired gaming equipment manufacturer SHFL Entertainment (formerly known as Shuffle Master).
The combinations created what was supposed to be a "one-stop shop" for casino customers. It also created a massive debt load. SciGames still has over $8 billion in debt, supported by barely $1 billion a year in Adjusted EBITDA.
Meanwhile, the logic behind the SciGames roll-up hasn't played out. Online gambling legalization in the U.S. has stalled. The numbers of casinos opening has plummeted. Existing operators — particularly U.S. regionals like Boyd Gaming Corporation (NYSE:BYD) and Pinnacle Entertainment Inc (NASDAQ:PNK) — have chosen cost-cutting and margin expansion over investing in new slot machines. As a result, SciGames' sales growth has been below expectations: just 6% through the first nine months of 2016. And profit growth has come largely from merger synergies.
Yet SGMS sits at its highest levels since the financial crisis, with shares exceeding $20.
Debt refinancing, which eliminated near-term maturities, has helped the stock, as has optimism toward increased consumer spending going forward. But a ~150% gain in the stock just since September seems excessive, and SciGames still has a reasonable chance of wiping out if its results don't improve — or if even a modest recession impacts profits at the wrong time.
3 Marijuana Stocks That Don't Need U.S. Legalization
In a bull market, the high level of debt allows investors to model more upside for the leverage. In a bear market, however, those same investors focus more on the risk. Given that, at current cash flow levels, SciGames would take something like 30 years to pay off its debt, a reversal in sentiment could mean a reversal in the stock.
Stocks to Sell or Short Before the Bears Strike: BofI Holding (BOFI)
BofI Holding, Inc. (NASDAQ:BOFI) is another battleground equity on our list of stocks to sell — and another issue where the bulls are currently winning, and winning big.
At the moment, BOFI looks like a classic short squeeze. Some 36% of the float is sold short at the moment — but that figure is actually down from about 40% around the time of the U.S. presidential election.
To be sure, the bull case for BOFI benefited from Donald Trump's surprise win. Investors are betting that both lower regulation and higher interest rates will help earnings, and thus the stock. That optimism, likely helped by short-covering, has moved shares up about 60% since Election Day.
Short squeeze potential aside, however, investors do need to be careful.
BofI still is dealing with lawsuits, including one from a former auditor who claimed the company violated regulations and falsified financial statements. The bank's client base has been riskier than most, and BOFI isn't cheap. As the Wall Street Journal pointed out on Tuesday, shares trade at 2.5x book value — a hefty multiple for any financial and above the peer average of 1.8x.
With the stock at its highest levels since the disclosure of the first lawsuit in 2015, it might be time for BOFI longs to take profits and step away from the battlefield for a moment.
Stocks to Sell or Short Before the Bears Strike: Platform Specialty Products (PAH)
What's interesting about both SGMS and Platform Specialty Products Corp (NYSE:PAH) is that they represent an apparent change in the market's opinion toward roll-up stories. The implosion of Valeant Pharmaceuticals Intl Inc (NYSE:VRX) cast a shadow on the strategy of using debt-fueled acquisitions for growth.
But Valeant isn't the only roll-up stock to suffer. Sequential Brands Group Inc (NASDAQ:SQBG), an apparel company, has fallen from $18 to $4 in less than two years. Performance Sports Group Ltd (OTCMKTS:PSGLQ) is in bankruptcy. And ClubCorp Holdings Inc (NYSE:MYCC) remains below its IPO price despite recent rumors of a takeover.
But sentiment toward PAH stock has turned. Shares are up roughly 75% since the election, their highest levels in over a year. But the risk is far from gone. A $350 million equity offering tanked the stock in September, though it did firm up the company's balance sheet. Still, Platform Specialty has over $5 billion in debt, almost 7x its 2016 adjusted EBITDA guidance. Free cash flow through the first nine months of 2016 was negative.
5 Utility and Telecom Stocks That Janet Yellen Just Clipped
PAH's presence in both agricultural and oil and gas end markets certainly has been a factor of late. But it's far from guaranteed that either industry will pick up soon. Like SGMS, if overall economic sentiment weakens at all, the company's leverage will be looked at very differently, as will its stock.
Stocks to Sell or Short Before the Bears Strike: Supreme Industries (STS)
The stock chart for Supreme Industries, Inc. (NYSEMKT:STS) is something to behold.
Shares of the truck body and specialty vehicle manufacturer were under $6 in February 2016; they neared $20 just seven months later.
Then, the bottom fell out. A huge decline in backlog disclosed in the Q3 earnings report sent STS stock down 38% in just two sessions.
And yet Supreme Industries has taken back all of those losses … and then some. Perhaps more incredibly, the stock's move has come solely on investor sentiment. Q4 earnings impacted by the lower Q3 backlog haven't even been reported yet. It seems likely that STS will post a decline in earnings year-over-year; yet the stock certainly isn't priced like it. In fact, Supreme trades at almost 17 times the sole 2016 analyst EPS estimate. It trades over 3 times book value. Both are rather high figures for a cyclical company facing a potential glut in the used truck market.
Again, the run since November (about 70%) is coming solely off those multiples expanding. The last time Supreme Industries reported earnings, investors fled the stock. Fundamentally, nothing has changed since then — other than STS's stock price, and substantially so. That seems to set up a dangerous Q4 — even if the broad market stays positive.
If earnings disappoint and sentiment changes, STS could be a great short, because it'll have a long way to drop. If you hold, this should be on your list of stocks to short.
As of this writing, Vince Martin had a bearish options position in SGMS.

High Standards: 2015 Nissan Murano crossover Motor News Media test-drives the 2015 Nissan Murano crossover. Check out this story on postcrescent.com: http://post.cr/1GEUnvY

This weeks Test Drive with USA TODAY'S James Healey touches base with the 2015 Nissan Murano USA TODAY
Nissan says it wanted the styling of the 2015 Murano crossover SUV to be dramatic, provocative. It resembles the Resonance concept car at the Detroit auto show in 2013.(Photo: Nissan)
The first-generation Nissan Murano had a profound impact on the SUV market when it was introduced for the 2003 model year. It offered a fresh design sensibility that combined an elegant style with premium features – without a luxury price tag. The second-generation Murano, introduced for model year 2009, maintained its strong position as the halo vehicle for Nissan crossovers – even as new Nissan SUVs like the bold JUKE sports crossover, all-new unibody Pathfinder and compact Rogue joined the product portfolio.
For the all-new third generation, designers took cues from the future, expressed in the form of the Nissan Resonance Concept vehicle. Though one was conceptual and the other production-based, Resonance and the new Murano were created on parallel tracks – with shared design themes and key attributes such as their boomerang lights and unique floating roof treatment.
Like the first-generation Murano, the 2015 version is a highly sculptural, highly emotional design. Working to capture the breathtaking spirit and artistry of the first Murano, the designers began by concentrating on the new vehicle's sculptural qualities. Breaking the usual order of sketching, computer renderings and then clay modeling, the Murano team started working with small three-dimensional clay forms – literally exploring organic shapes and volumes with mini desktop sculptures. The process helped narrow down a new Nissan design direction focused on lightness and efficiency.
The third-generation Murano is available in four grade levels: S, SV, SL and Platinum. Each will be available in front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.
Test Drive: 2015 Nissan Murano
Nissan wants the radical redesign of the 2015 Murano midsize SUV to recapture the "what the...." reaction the first Murano SUV provoked in 2003. Nissan
The 2015 Nissan Murano's standout feature could be overlooked: It is supremely easy to drive smoothly. It's a four-door, five-passenger crossover SUV, available with front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD). Nissan
Nissan says the 2015 Murano is aimed at kid-free professionals, 35 - 45, who like to provoke. They don't care much about truck attributes, Nissan says, but want good toting space and a daily driver that's easy to to operate and is smooth. Nissan, Photo by John Murphy
The 2015 Nissan Murano has a 3.5-liter V-6 rated at 260 horsepower at 6,000 rpm, 240 pounds-feet of torque at 4,400 rpm, carried over from the previous model. The Xtronic CVT (continuously variable-ratio automatic transmission) has been, updated to provide actual shifts in many situations, rather than the never-ending slurring of engine speed up and down that makes CVTs tiresome. Nissan
The 2015 Nissan Murano starts at $30,445 including $885 shipping for the base S FWD and hits $45,860 for Platinum AWD with all available factory options. Add another $1,190 for Nissan-listed features such as floor mats and mud flaps that the dealer can install. Nissan
The 2015 Nissan Murano FWD and AWD both are rated 21 mpg in the city, 28 on the highway and 24 in combined city/highway driving. Product planner Nolian Diaz said, "I didn't believe it. I told the engineers to run it again." Extra weight and drag from AWD system usually cuts mpg rating. Nissan
The 2015 Nissan Murano has 39.6 cubic feet behind second row seat, 69.9 cu. ft. when second row is folded flat. And the seat itself provides adult-size leg room and knee space. Floor's flat, which is comfortable, and seat backs adjust for comfort. Nissan
Front and rear seats are Nissan's Zero-Gravity design. It's supposed to lessen pressure points and fatigue. Not everybody will judge it a success. Nissan
Test model of the 2015 Nissan Murano was a prototype high-end Platinum series with AWD. The brown-to-white shadings in some of the trim was a bit garish, but Nissan said it's supposed to give the look and feel of mother of pearl. Nissan
Standard features in the Murano include some of our favorites, such as a tire-pressure monitor with actual pressure readouts for each tire, instead of those stupid, orange idiot lights that say a tire somewhere, maybe, is low. Infotainment/connectivity electronics linked a Windows phone without requiring any action for the driver. Remarkable. Nissan

The first Nissan Murano was this 2003 unveiled in 2002. The look was radically different from other crossover SUVs, and didn't appeal to all buyers the first year. It was selling well Nissan wanted the 2015 redesign to capture the same shocked reaction. Nissan
Power is generated by a 3.5L V6 engine and joined to an advanced Xtronic automatic transmission tuned for quick response and smoothness. Fuel economy is projected to be enhanced by approximately 20 percent versus the current generation model, due to the approximate 130-pound overall weight reduction, enhanced aerodynamics and engine/transmission efficiencies.
Control hardware consists of a four-wheel independent suspension featuring a front strut/rear multi-link design. The result of this application is both responsive handling and a comfortable ride.
The exterior theme of futuristic travel and refined intensity continues throughout the passenger cabin, starting the moment the doors are opened with its available advanced lighting system, open and comfortable feeling and use of premium materials.
Continuing the idea of a concept car brought to production, the new Murano shares the look and feel of the Resonance. The upscale social lounge interior, for example, creates an inviting and comfortable atmosphere.
The instrument panel height is lower than the previous model. Centered between the outer wings is a large information and control center with an available eight-inch color display with multi-touch control. Keeping with the idea of "beauty with simplicity," the number of audio and navigation switches has been reduced by 60 percent – from 25 to 10 – for a more user-friendly experience.
Nissan's advanced NASA-inspired Zero Gravity seats are standard for front and rear outboard occupants. The rear seats are a three-cushion design, a first for a Nissan vehicle. Climate-controlled seats (heating and cooling) are available in front, along with available Quick Comfort™ heated rear seats.
Conversation between front and rear occupants is encouraged by the new Murano's "communication alley" created by the wide, low center console. The console also includes a compartment for rear occupants' smartphone. There is also an available USB port for the rear seats that allows for control of music and display, along with ample storage areas and compartments throughout the interior.
The new Murano's cargo area has been reconfigured to provide a projected best storage space in the segment (with seats up). The rear cargo area, for example, accommodates four large suitcases, while the rear seats fold flat for greater cargo convenience. With the easy rear seat release and available power rear seat return, Murano converts from people hauler to cargo ship or back within seconds. All configurations can be done from the back, with no walking to each door.

HCM City (VNA) – Leading cueists from Vietnam, the Republic of Korea, Japan, Jordan and Lebanon are competing at the 10th Asian Carom Billiards Championship that opened in Ho Chi Minh City on April 23.
The tourney is held at Nguyen Du Gymnasium by the municipal Department of Culture and Sports and the Asian Carom Billiards Confederation.
One-cushion carom matches will take place on April 23 and 24. The top three winners will respectively receive cash prizes of 2,000 USD, 1,200 USD and 600 USD.
Meanwhile, 32 cueists will compete in the three-cushion category from April 24 to 27. They are divided into eight groups, and eight top players will advance to the next round.
The champion in this category will be awarded 4,000 USD while the two runners-up will receive 2,400 USD and 1,200 USD, respectively.
Vietnam sent seven cueists to the one-cushion category and 12 to the three-cushion one, including experienced players like Tran Quyet Chien (world's No. 6), Nguyen Quoc Nguyen (world's No. 12), Ngo Dinh Nai, Ma Minh Cam and Duong Anh Vu.
Coach Nguyen Viet Hoa said Vietnamese cueists have advantages in the one-cushion category, but they will face fierce competition from Korean players, including Cho Jae-ho – world's No.3, in the three-cushion category.
If they are successful at this time's tourney, Vietnamese cueists will have more momentum at the three-cushion world cup scheduled to take place in HCM City in late May, Hoa noted.-VNA

Unfortunately, my insightful political commentary was interrupted by an unexpected electrical problem, but after extinguishing my shirt and smashing the offending wall outlet, I'm ready to continue.
One especially poignant political question came to me as I was attempting to restart my heart: If a wall outlet in the Whitehouse laundry room shorted out, resulting in a blue flame and the subsequent melting of a clothes dryer, which presidential candidate would do a better job of fixing the problem?
Was the shirt salvageable? I always hate it when I lose a perfectly good shirt, such a waste of money.
I was able to salvage the collar, which is all I need to jumpstart my backup career as . . . Pundit Clergy Boy!

Trainer Roger Charlton will Quest For More in the Caulfield Cup with his talented stayer
Quest For More will be amongst three British raiders that have made the journey to Australia to contest the Group One feature. Charlton's stayer is quoted at as high as 50/1 to take the race, with Sir Michael Stoute's Snow Sky being much more fancied at around 15/2. The Gold Cup hero Trip To Paris makes up the UK trio and is valued a 33/1 chance.
Quest For More has done nothing wrong this season and appears to have progressed with each run. With a strong pace almost guaranteed expect him to be thereabouts at the finish. However, it may be another foreign challenger that takes the prize in the form of the Japanese runner Fame Game.

Q: Evaluate $\lim_{k\to l}\frac{\sqrt{e^{\sin(2k)}}-\sqrt{e^{\cos(2k)}}}{k-l}$ without L'Hopital Evaluate $$\lim_{k\to l}\frac{\sqrt{e^{\sin(2k)}}-\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}}{k-l}$$
I know this is equivalent with $\frac{d}{dx}\sqrt{e^{\sin(2x)}}=\cos(2x)\sqrt{e^{\sin(2x)}}$, but my instructor wants me to solve this using limit. My attempt:
Multiply with $\frac{\sqrt{e^{\sin(2k)}}+\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}}{\sqrt{e^{\sin(2k)}}+\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}}$
$$ \frac{1}{2}\lim_{k\to l}\frac{e^{\sin(2k)}-e^{\sin(2l)}}{(k-l)(\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}})}$$
Here's where I stuck.

A: \begin{align*}
\lim_{k\to l}\frac{\sqrt{e^{\sin(2k)}}-\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}}{k-l}
&=\lim_{k\to l}\frac{e^{\sin(2k)}-e^{\sin(2l)}}{(\sqrt{e^{\sin(2k)}}+\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}})(k-l)}\\
&=\frac1{2\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}}\lim_{k\to l}\frac{e^{\sin(2k)}-e^{\sin(2l)}}{k-l}\\
&=\frac{\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}}{2}\lim_{k\to l}\frac{e^{\sin(2k)-\sin(2l)}-1}{k-l}\\
&=\frac{\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}}{2}\lim_{k\to l}\frac{e^{2\cos(k+l)\sin(k-l)}-1}{2\cos(k+l)\sin(k-l)}\cdot\frac{\sin(k-l)}{k-l}\cdot 2\cos(k+l)\\
&=\cos(2l)\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}\left(\lim_{x\to0}\frac{e^x-1}{x}\right)\left(\lim_{x\to0}\frac{\sin x}x\right)\\
&=\cos(2l)\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}.
\end{align*}
The without-L'Hospital proof for last two limits can be found here and here.

A: Hint: Your last line must be
$$\frac{e^{\sin(2k)}-e^{\sin(2l)}}{(k-l)(\sqrt{e^{\sin(2k}}+\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}})}$$

A: $$\lim_{k\to l}\frac{\sqrt{e^{\sin(2k)}}-\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}}{k-l} =\lim_{k\to l}\frac1{\sqrt{e^{\sin(2k)}}+\sqrt{e^{\sin(2l)}}}\cdot\lim_{k\to l}\frac{e^{\sin(2k)}-e^{\sin(2l)}}{k-1}$$
Now $$\lim_{k\to l}\frac{e^{\sin(2k)}-e^{\sin(2l)}}{k-1}=e^{\sin(2l)}\cdot\lim_{k\to l}\dfrac{e^{(\sin2k-\sin2l)}-1}{\sin2k-\sin2l}\cdot\lim_{k\to l}\dfrac{\sin2k-\sin2l}{k-l}$$
Use Prosthaphaeresis Formulas, $\sin2k-\sin2l=2\sin(k-l)\cos(k+l)$
