Greeting Norms
A common greeting is a light handshake and saying "how do you do" which is responded to with another "how do you do". Both men and women shake hands although women will extend their hand first before a man shakes it. The Welsh are also British since Wales is part of the UK. Therefore, they share many greeting norms and communication styles with other British countries.
Communication Styles
The British, including the Welsh, are reserved and rely on indirect communication. Being very direct in conversations is considered disrespectful. They are usually not loud when in public and they do not have expressive body language. They do not interrupt those who are speaking for that is seen as rude. Self-deprecating humor is very common. It is not common for them to publicly complain even if there is a reason to, or to give direct criticism.
Personal Space and Touching
Personal space is valued and touching is not common. Touching is usually avoided unless it is a close friend or relative. It is also not common for affection to be displayed publicly. Since personal space is valued, standing or sitting very close to someone when there is more space available would make the other person feel very uncomfortable.
Eye Contact and Gestures
It is common to maintain eye contact during a conversation although it shouldn't be perceived as staring. Maintaining eye contact is considered respectful but staring is considered rude. Breaking eye contact every now and then will prevent the person from feeling uncomfortable. It is also important to make equal eye contact with everyone in the group. A gesture that is considered obscene is making an inverted "peace sign" with your palm facing you. This sign is very offensive. Tapping on the side of your forehead is a gesture made to indicate that you are dumb. For women, it is considered proper for them to cross their feet at their ankles instead of at their knees when sitting.

Welsh Dialects
Gwyndodeg
Gwyndodeg is the Welsh dialect that is spoken in the northwest of Wales. It is also called the Gwynedd dialect. Like the other dialects, it has differences in the vocabulary and pronunciation that set it apart from the other dialects. For example, the word for "fox" in Gwyndodeg is "llwynog". In contrast, in the Welsh dialects Dyfedeg, Sir Benfro, and Gwenhwyseg it is called "cadno".
Powyseg
Powyseg is the Welsh dialect that is spoken in the northeast of Wales. It is also called the Powys dialect. A word that exemplifies the difference between this dialect and the others is the word "hedge". In Powyseg, the word "hedge" is said as "shetin". On the other hand, in Gwyndodeg it is said "gwrych". In Gwenhwyseg it is said "perth" and in Dyfedeg it is said "clawdd". Still, in Sir Benfro it is said "claw".
Dyfedeg and Sir Benfro
Dyfedeg is the Welsh dialect that is spoken in the southwest of Wales. It is also called the Dyfed dialect. The Sir Benfro dialect is considered to be part of Dyfedeg. Still, there are some notable differences between the two. As previously mentioned, while "hedge" in Dyfedeg is "clawdd", in Sir Benfro it is "claw".
Gwenhwyseg
Gwenhwyseg is the Welsh dialect spoken in the southeast of Wales. It is also called the dialect of Gwent. It is thought to have once been one of the most widely spoken Welsh dialects although there are very few speakers of it now. A difference in this dialect is that while in Welsh the word for "aunt" is "modryp", in Gwenhwyseg it is "bopa". There are many words in this dialect that differs to the words used in the others. Also, in this dialect as well as the other Southern ones, the word for "grandmother" is "mamgu" while in the Northern dialects it is "nain". This demonstrates that many of the differences between these dialects are between the Northern and Southern part of Wales.
Patagonian
Patagonian Welsh is actually not spoken in Wales but in Argentina. It originated in a Welsh settlement in Argentina. Although Patagonian Welsh is for the most part mutually intelligible with the other Welsh dialects, it does have its differences. It has been influenced by Spanish which is the official language of Argentina. For example, the word in Patagonian Welsh "baseando" comes from the Spanish word "paseando" and it is very different from "am dro" which is how it is said in Welsh.
Countries Where Welsh is the Official Language
The only country where Welsh is the official language is Wales. There are around 562,000 speakers of Welsh in Wales. Welsh is one of the two official languages, the other being English. This is where most Welsh speakers are located. Other Welsh speakers can be found in different countries.
According to the U.S Census Bureau, there are around 2,235 Welsh speakers in the United States. The state with the highest amount of Welsh speakers is Florida.
Here is a complete list:
Of course, each of the 50 states is home to many Welsh but the ones listed stand out based on annual data from the American Community Survey published by the U.S. Census Bureau

The Humanities Crisis
The Humanities "Crisis" and the Future of Literary Studies to be published in July by Palgrave-Macmillan
Description and Chapter Abstracts
The Humanities "Crisis" and the Future of Literary Studies examines contemporary debates about the role of the humanities in higher education. I point out that the current humanities crisis recycles anxieties about their value that have a long history. In our own time, students and parents worry the humanities serve no practical purpose, while many who endorse their cultural value complain an over-professionalized faculty preoccupied with esoteric theories and political agendas has left them compromised. I argue both concerns are misplaced. Humanists and their supporters, while emphasizing the social and cultural value of a humanities education, should not be shy about stressing how the humanities also teach students a set of useful skills, and that they are most effectively taught in courses that emphasize theoretical thinking, sensitivity to social justice, and the ability to use scholarly and critical methodologies. Focusing on the field of literary studies, I argue that the value of the humanities must be framed in a balanced way that stresses both the importance of the cultural knowledge they embody, and the utility of the transferable skills they teach. The real humanities crisis is not intellectual but budgetary, and it can be opposed most effectively by taking a multifaceted approach to explaining their value in twenty-first century higher education.
Introduction (see the link above to read the full Introduction)
This is a book about how to defend the humanities in general—and literary studies in particular—at a time when there are shrinking resources to support them, and growing skepticism about their worth. Budget cuts stemming from a persistent recession, accompanied by the defunding of public institutions of higher education through shrinking tax revenue, have threatened humanities programs everywhere. In this context, education that ends in credentializing seems to be trumping education as an end in itself. In defending the value of the humanities, humanists and their supporters need to resist the instrumentalization of a humanities education but also find ways to stress the transferable skills they teach.
Chapter 1: The Humanities Crisis Then and Now
In the last few years there has been a daily drumbeat of news announcing that the humanities are in a state of "crisis." Yet, a historical analysis reveals that the humanities have almost always been characterized as being in crisis. Such an analysis reveals a set of recurring concerns: that the humanities do not have any practical value, that their pedagogical aims are compromised by the professional research interests of faculty, and more recently, that their traditional orientation has been ruined by theory and political correctness. This rhetoric of crisis is often facile and almost always counterproductive. The best way to defend the humanities is by underscoring the positive effects of innovation and change and the concrete, transferable skills humanities students learn, especially in courses stressing disciplinary (and interdisciplinary) theories and methodologies.
Chapter 2: Professionalism and Its Discontents
This chapter explores in detail the claim that the humanities have lost their traditional coherence due to the over professionalization of the faculty. Not only is blaming the professionalization of the professoriate for a perceived crisis in the humanities counterintuitive, since professors are known for the specific disciplinary skills they possess, it also devalues the analytical, critical, and interpretive skills professors teach humanities students. In fact, courses that include theory and contain a strong critical methodologies component are some of the best courses we have in higher education for teaching critical thinking in general, and the kinds of transferable skills students need to enter the marketplace and exercise responsible citizenship.
Chapter 3: Humanism, the Humanities, and Political Correctness
Critical theory has not only had a positive effect on the education of humanities students in terms of the critical-thinking skills it teaches, but also because it has produced a valuable and productive critique of humanism itself, one that has made humanist theory more inclusive, insuring that the rights it endorses and the agency it promises are open to everyone. It is a strategic mistake, then, to characterize contemporary critical theory as anti- or post-humanist. It makes more sense, historically and politically, to stress the extent to which post-structuralist, feminist, gender, multicultural, new historicist, and postcolonial theory have collectively enriched our understanding of the human, and broadened our understanding of what it means to get an education in the humanities.
Chapter 4: Getting to the Core of the Humanities, or Who's Afraid of Gloria Anzaldúa?
All of the issues historically central to arguments about the nature and value of a humanities education have figured prominently in debates about the core curriculum in the United States. A careful review of the history of the development of the core at Columbia University is particularly revealing in this regard. It demonstrates that the core at Columbia did not have its roots in a great books program but one that explored in a practical context contemporary social and political issues. Moreover, the whole history of its development was characterized by arguments about the role critical methodologies and the teaching of practical disciplinary skills ought to play in a humanities education. These arguments about the role secondary critical materials and historical context ought to play in the study of primary humanities texts underscore how debates about the humanities have always focused on how to balance teaching great works and practical critical skills.
Chapter 5: Aesthetics, Close Reading, Theory, and the Future of Literary Studies
Those who are concerned that the humanities are in "crisis" often call for a return to the basics, to a focus on traditional issues and concerns. This is particularly the case in literary studies. There are at least two problems with this position. The first is that the field changes so often that it is next to impossible to identify traditional issues and concerns in the first place. The second is that specific calls for a return to things such as aesthetic criticism and close reading often turn out to lead through literature back out into the larger concerns of the very practice of cultural studies critics of the contemporary humanities lament. New work in aesthetic theory, for example, underscores the futility of limiting the study of the aesthetic to literature or art, and advocates of close reading emphasize the broad applicability of its techniques beyond the reading of literary texts.
Conclusion: The Humanities and the Public Sphere in the Age of the Internet
If the humanities are to remain central in both higher education and society at large, they must have an engaged, public presence. New programs that train students for a range of jobs working with historical associations, humanities councils, museums, and other cultural institutions, are therefore vital. The new field of the digital humanities also promises to integrate the humanities and technology in ways that are both intellectually exciting and practical. Other developments, however, are troubling. Experiments in online education in general, and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), in particular, have not gone well, and these delivery systems threaten to marginalize the humanities, which thrive best in face-to-face engagement in real classrooms, and in a context where professors can work closely with students on developing their critical thinking and writing skills.

ICC Int'l receives European master licence to Affinity
Mr. David Shpilt reports
INTERNATIONAL CANNABIS SECURES EXCLUSIVE MASTER LICENSE FOR REVOLUTIONARY CANNABINOID EXTRACTION TECHNOLOGY; TO INTEGRATE ACROSS THE EU AND INDIA
ICC International Cannabis Corp. has secured the exclusive European master licence to the Affinity Alpha unit, a revolutionary cannabinoid extraction system. The Affinity unit deploys a two-phase extraction process to facilitate the mass production of highly purified THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD (cannabidiol), CBG (cannabigerol) and terpene extracts at 10 times the throughput of conventional extraction technologies.
The Affinity unit leverages patented and proprietary molecular imprinting (MIP) and advanced processing nanotechnologies to provide:
Near-quantitative levels of purity;
Product uniformity and predictability;
Improved durability;
Continuous process flow;
Nil production bottlenecks.
International Cannabis plans to integrate the Affinity unit into its vertically integrated cannabis asset portfolio spanning 20 countries across four continents, resulting in optimized production efficacy of its proprietary formulations and form factors.
Developed by Atom Energy Inc., in collaboration with Sixth Wave Innovations Inc. (6W) the Affinity unit leverages a portfolio of patented 6W technologies uniquely formulated for high-volume inorganic applications. Sixth Wave has amassed patents in over 40 countries for its proprietary MIP and advanced processing nanotechnologies.
The company will also leverage the Affinity unit to expedite postharvest production of finished goods from of its existing extraction-ready CBD inventories in Germany, Switzerland, Serbia and Croatia.
The Affinity unit's industry-leading throughput, coupled with the company's feedstock inventories and supply agreements will equip ICC with a secure pipeline of superior CBD concentrates and hemp oils for the distribution with commensurate cost savings and virtually unlimited scalability. Moreover, cannabinoid losses associated with existing process steps to get to isolate will be virtually eliminated using Affinity technology increasing yield by 40 to 50 per cent depending on implementation.
A comprehensive bolt-on extraction platform, the Affinity unit is designed to seamlessly integrate into existing industry production circuits. The Affinity unit is equipped with automated extraction infrastructure and advanced standard operating procedures (SOPs), resulting in:
Reduced capital and operating expenditures:
Consolidated extraction stages/phases into a unified, intuitive operating unit boasting a continuous internal-extraction circuit without intermediate batch processing prerequisites;
Streamlined processes to convert raw plant extracts into highly purified/separated THC, CBD and terpene extracts;
High-volume production capabilities:
Efficient processing of mass inputs for all varieties of feedstock;
Improved extraction efficacy and standardization;
Precise total quality management methodologies;
Advanced assurance of safety protocols;
Improved scalability.
David Shpilt, chief executive officer of International Cannabis, stated: "The integration of the Affinity unit across ICC's global operating units will optimize ICC's multipronged CBD strategy, thereby maximizing rents while cornering high-growth consumer segments. A proprietary two-phase extraction process, equipped with 10 times the conventional industry throughput will permit ICC to bring its superior product formulations to market at an expedited rate; further actualizing its first mover reputation across the European Union.
"Access to the exclusive master licence arms International Cannabis with the capability to monetize each and every deployment of the Affinity unit across the EU."
Under the terms of the ROFR, ICC has been granted the first-in-line option to acquire the exclusive master licensing rights for the deployment and use of the Affinity technology throughout the sovereign states and dependent territories of Europe.
The master rights, to be fully defined in a mutually agreeable master licence agreement (MLA), to be executed by the parties concurrent with the execution of the ROFR, will allow the following exclusive rights to accrue to ICC:
Direct use licence -- a licence to deploy the Affinity technology on a direct-use basis via ICC-operated facilities within the master territory;
Authority to sublicense -- the authority to grant sublicences for the use of the Affinity technology throughout the master territory, and to collect a metered royalty rate based on the biomass volumes processed by all sublicensees using the Affinity technology platform.
Under the terms of the ROFR and subject to the completion of mutually agreeable licence agreements between the parties pertaining to special strategic process locations, ICC will have additional licence rights not contemplated by the master territory:
India -- the right to establish ICC-operated facilities within the Republic of India, without the obligation or right of sublicensing; ICC additionally granted first-mover status within India, with an option to install the first Affinity technology processing site within that jurisdiction, ahead of all other prospective licensees;
Greece -- parties have agreed that Greece will be a special exclusion from the defined master territory, with ICC having the right to establish ICC-operated facilities in that jurisdiction, without the obligation or right of sublicensing.
Under the terms of the agreement, ICC has agreed to pay $3.5-million in common shares in the capital of ICC upon the exercise of the ROFR and the concurrent MLA. As a condition precedent of the payment of the consideration, Atom has agreed to deliver the first Affinity purification unit to ICC for use within the master territory, to the satisfaction of ICC.
In addition to the foregoing, ICC has agreed to invest $1.5-million in Atom at an issue price of 75 cents per share, to close on or before May 31, 2019.
A finder's fee is payable on this transaction.

National governments and vehicle manufacturers are being warned that they must better support Europe's ultra-low emission vehicle market, ahead of the European Parliament vote on CO2 targets which takes place on Wednesday.
Wednesday's European Parliament vote will set out CO2 targets for the next decade.
Manufacturers are working towards 95g/km average CO2 emissions for new cars and 147g/km for vans by 2021, with 'super credits' for selling low-emission vehicles and financial penalties for not complying.
On Wednesday, the European Parliament will vote on targets beyond 2021. Proposals include a 20% reduction in average CO2 emissions by 2025, and 45% by 2030 – targets of 118g/km and 82g/km respectively for light commercial vehicles. Mandatory shares of ultra-low emission vehicles, and a process for on-road testing of CO2 output, are also included.


The accreditation process, through which our courses are approved, is rigorous and transparent, and has been recognised as such by the UK Department of Health and by the universities with whom we work. All of our courses recently reviewed by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) received judgements of confidence.
Acupuncture in the UK is a young profession, and grew up in independent colleges, led by committed exponents and experts of this longstanding system of medicine. Early courses were not subject to any external quality assurance processes. An important emphasis of the Board from the outset was development – of the courses, the staff and of the policies and processes of the Board itself. For an independent college or a university, working with the Board officers, it takes from three to six years before a course is fully accredited. Throughout this time, and subsequently, the institution has the support and advice of a specified accreditation officer of the Board.
A visit by a team which will include two acupuncturists and an accreditation officer to discuss the course with the managers, staff and students. Teaching in the classroom and the clinic and compliance with the BAcC Code of Safe Practice will be observed.
Discussion at both the Accreditation Committee and Board of the report of the visiting team and recommendation on accreditation.
After an initial discussion with Board officers the institution formally notifies the Board of their intention to develop a course for accreditation through submitting a New Programme Proposal (NPP). Download the New Programme Proposal Proforma.
If accepted, the institution will be expected to develop their programme in a systematic, reflective and self-critical fashion. An named accreditation officer will have a responsibility to keep in touch with and support the institution, and to report it's progress to the Accreditation Committee. Once the course has demonstrated that it has the potential to meet the requirements of the Board, it can submit for Approval for Development to Full BAAB Accreditation. Should this period extend beyond one year, the institution will be expected to submit a progress report on all aspects of its institutional and programme development.
Once the teaching clinic has been established and the first cohort of students is in their second year, the institution may submit for Full Accreditation. This involves a longer visit with observation of teaching both in the classroom and the clinic as well as discussion and scrutiny of minutes, course work and so on. Being awarded Full Accreditation enables graduates to be eligible for membership of the BAcC by direct entry. Full accreditation will only be granted once the processes for managing the course have been demonstrated to be robust and the course demonstrates that it is being delivered to the appropriate standards through its first graduates.

My understanding from the buy now page is that you are ordering LW 8 with a free upgrade to LW 9. I already own LW 8 and have no need for duplicate CDs to be sent to me.
Special Offer + e-on software Vue 5 Infinite® !
* Includes Free Update to LightWave v9.0 with PDF manual!
If you are a registered user of any previous standalone version of LightWave 3D for Mac or PC , you can upgrade to the very latest in 3D software for only $395!
Special Offer LightWave 9 upgrade w/ Vue 5 Infinite® !
Ah got it Chuck - IMHO not the best web design then.... It might be worth it to just have a series of simple links rather than that large scrolling window in the center of the screen.
Wait a sec, aren't you on vacation?
I too missed it first time I looked at the buy now page.
Who else is suposed to be on vacation? I'll be leaving tomorrow to sunny Florida. If I preorder today (that's the plan)... Vue 5 might be already waiting for me when I come back in 10 days!
I'll be leaving tomorrow to sunny Florida.
3D - Getting there !
Maybe ready to jump on the bandwagon here on the upgrade. I too have 8.3 installed and not looking forward to more of the same. However, how or why some vendors (like Harbor Shore) have a better pricing ?
For those users like myself that waited sooo long for 8 (pre-ordered), does Newtek match other vendors prices or come up with a better deal ?
If I go with the LW8 version upgrade, am I just using the new S/N to upgrade to LW9 when out. Rather than re-installing my current LW8.3.
Like to see some discounting, if possible.
bad chuck! vacation means vacation! , go watch those unopened movies!
NewTek sells directly for MSRP, and our authorised retail and catalog resellers may at times be able to provide discounts.
Any Lightwave 9 upgrade discounts for those of us that purchased Vue 5 Infinite when it first came out back in February? Just wondering.

Finch, Charles (Charles B.) (author.).
Physical Description: x, 309 pages ; 21 cm.
General Note: Includes a thirteen page preview of the book titled The Inheritance, the next Charles Lenox mystery.
Summary, etc.: It's London in 1876, and the whole city is abuzz with the enigmatic disappearance of a famous foreign pianist. Lenox has an eye on the matter - as a partner in a now-thriving detective agency, he's a natural choice to investigate. Just when he's tempted to turn his focus to it entirely, however, his grieving brother asks him to come down to Sussex, and Lenox leaves the metropolis behind for the quieter country life of his boyhood. Or so he thinks. In fact, something strange is afoot in Markethouse: small thefts, books, blankets, animals, and more alarmingly a break-in at the house of a local insurance agent. As he and his brother to investigate this small accumulation of mysteries, Lenox realizes that something very strange and serious indeed may be happening, more than just local mischief. Soon, he's racing to solve two cases at once, one in London and one in the country, before either turns deadly.

UofL names Vince Tyra as new AD; Chris Mack as men's basketball coach
and UofL Today
Vince Tyra
Following a nationwide search, the University of Louisville Board of Trustees on Monday approved the appointment of Vincent Tyra as UofL's vice president for intercollegiate athletics and athletics director.
On Wednesday, the board approved the hiring of Chris Mack as head coach of the UofL men's basketball team.
The UofL board approved a five-year agreement with Tyra (pronounced TIE-ray) at a special meeting March 26 following recommendations from a university-wide search committee and the UofL Athletics Association Board of Directors.
Tyra has served as interim athletics director since Oct. 3, 2017.
A Louisville native with strong business and athletics credentials, Tyra has been highly active since assuming his interim position, using his business acumen, passion for Cardinal Athletics and background in athletics to lead UofL during a period of transition.
"We are convinced that Vince Tyra is the right fit to lead the UofL athletics program," said UofL's Interim President Greg Postel, MD. "He has provided strong leadership while continuing to move the Cardinals forward in all sports, building upon the legacy of previous athletics successes and taking the time to personally reach out to the UofL fan base and donors as much as possible. The feedback we received from donors, community members, employees, athletes, the ACC and colleagues throughout the country has been extremely positive."
While in his interim capacity, Tyra has taken steps to stabilize the future of the Cardinals by extending the contracts for key UofL coaches and making moves to efficiently restructure the administrative and support staff, with an emphasis on enhancing the student-athlete experience. He has monitored UofL's ongoing capital projects, including the Papa John's Cardinal Stadium expansion to be completed in late summer and outfitting of a broadcast center on campus in advance of the launch of the ACC Network in August 2019.
Tyra is just the third athletics director for the Cardinals in the last 38 years, following Tom Jurich (1997-2017) and Bill Olsen (1980-1997).
"It's an honor to take the reins of such an outstanding athletics program with its rich tradition of success," Tyra said. "I look forward to continuing to work with our coaches and staff to put an outstanding product on the field while ensuring the success of our student athletes and representing UofL in a manner that will make the entire university family proud."
Jed Hughes, vice chairman of Korn Ferry, the Los Angeles-based search firm selected to lead the search for UofL's permanent AD, said Vince Tyra is perfectly suited to step into the
"I have recruited a lot of executives, and Vince Tyra is at the top of the food chain among executives in college or pro sports. His experiences transfer well to the athletic director's role. He's an elite business builder, he understands the value of his stakeholders, he truly values the university, he has a passion for supporting student athletes, and he has shown a unique ability to change and improve cultures. In two or three years, he's going to be one of the best athletic directors in America," Hughes said.
"When we began this search, we interviewed him and thought 'Wow, the bar is high.' We knew it was going to be tough to find candidates with his qualities. When we talked to representatives within the conference and at the NCAA, we found they felt the same way."
Oliver Luck, EVP for Regulatory Affairs at the NCAA, called announcement "great news."
"Vince has done an absolutely remarkable job in the most difficult of circumstances. He's a former student-athlete with exceptional business experience," Luck said. "I think the athletic department is in great hands with Vince."
Chris Mack
Chris Mack's contract with the Cardinals runs through the 2024-25 season.
Chris Mack, whose teams have participated in the NCAA Tournament in eight of his nine seasons as a head coach, has been selected as the head coach of the University of Louisville men's basketball team.
In nine seasons as the head coach at Xavier, Mack guided the Musketeers to a 215-97 record and eight NCAA Tournament appearances (the last five straight years), including reaching the Sweet 16 on four occasions and the Elite Eight in 2017. His teams won or shared three conference regular season championships while compiling a 105-49 league record over nine seasons in the Big East and Atlantic 10.
Among active coaches, Mack's .689 winning percentage as a head coach ranks him 19th in the nation and his 215 victories are tied for the 11th most amassed by a coach in their first nine seasons.
His most recent 2017-18 squad achieved a 29-6 record, won Xavier's first Big East Conference regular season championship and earned the school's first-ever No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Mack was honored as the 2018 Big East Coach of the Year, NABC District 5 Coach of the Year, and he became the all-time coaching wins leader with the Musketeers. Xavier finished third in the final Associated Press poll – its highest ever ranking — and this year's team was one short of the school record for victories.
Mack's contract with the Cardinals will be for seven years, extending through the 2024-25 season. He will be just the fourth head coach to guide the Cardinals in the last 48 years, following Denny Crum (1971-2001), Rick Pitino (2001-17) and David Padgett (2017-18). Mack is the 21st head coach in Louisville's 104-year history and the seventh in the past 73 years.
Mack, 48, received the 2016 Henry Iba Award as the U.S. Basketball Writers Association (USBWA) National Coach of the Year while also earning the CBS Sports and Basketball Times magazine National Coach of the Year awards that season. He led Xavier to a 28-6 record in 2015-16 and achieved a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament and a No. 5 ranking in the final AP poll, which at the time was the school's highest seed and ranking in school history.
His 2016-17 Xavier team made an NCAA Tournament run to the Elite Eight after entering the event as a No. 11 seed. His teams have reached the NCAA Sweet 16 on four occasions, in 2010, 2012, 2015 and 2017. As a player, assistant and head coach, Mack has been a part of 19 NCAA Tournament appearances.
Vince Tyra's resume
Prior to his appointment at UofL, Tyra served as an operating partner since 2007 for Southfield Capital, a Greenwich, Connecticut-based private equity firm that invests in lower-middle market companies. In his role there, Tyra served as chairman of the board of many investments, including Hallcon Corp, RCR International, Total Fleet Solutions, Dealer Financial Services, and BioPharm Communications. Tyra most recently served as chairman of the board and interim Chief Executive Officer of Elite Medical, a company based in Clearwater, Florida.
Tyra operated as a corporate advisor from 2013-16 for ISCO Industries, a privately held piping supply company based in Louisville. He also formerly served as the president of Retail and Activewear for Fruit of the Loom in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
Tyra has served as a member of the University of Louisville Foundation Board of Directors and chaired the organization's Finance Committee. He joined the board in February 2017, but stepped down from the position after his appointment with Cardinal Athletics. He has served on the board of Industrial Services of America, a Louisville-based scrap metal recycling company.
A standout athlete, Tyra graduated from Trinity High School in Louisville in 1984 as the state's top baseball prospect and was inducted into the school's hall of fame. He was a four-year baseball letterman (1985-88) and two-time team captain at the University of Kentucky, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in health administration in 1988. He started 37 career games as a pitcher, tied for 14th all time at UK.
A long-time supporter of UofL Athletics, Tyra is the son of Charlie Tyra, a consensus All-America at UofL who led the Cardinals to the 1956 National Invitation Tournament Championship. Charlie Tyra is one of four players, along with Wes Unseld, Darrell Griffith and Pervis Ellison, whose jersey numbers have been retired at UofL.
Tyra and his wife Lori have five children: Sydney, Audrey, Olivia, Spencer and Cooper.
Chris Mack's resume
Born Dec. 30, 1969 in Cleveland, Ohio, Mack was the 2010-11 Atlantic 10 Conference Coach of the Year in his second year as a head coach. In addition, he was the recipient of the 2011 Skip Prosser Man of the Year award, which was established in 2008 to honor those who not only achieve success on the basketball court but who display moral integrity off the court as well.
He was the 2009-10 Basketball Times Rookie Coach of the Year when, in his initial year, he guided Xavier to a 26-9 record, shared the Atlantic 10 Championship and advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16.
Mack served as a court coach for the 2016 USA Basketball Men's U18 National Team training camp in the summer of 2016 at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Before rising to a head coaching position, Mack was a part of successful staffs throughout his career. He spent five seasons as an assistant on Sean Miller's Xavier staff (2004-09) after serving on the staff of the late Skip Prosser at Xavier as director of basketball operations (1999-01) and as an assistant coach at Wake Forest (2001-04).
In 10 seasons as an assistant or operations director, he helped his teams produce a 229-96 record (.705), win four regular season titles and one conference tournament championship, and secure eight NCAA Tournament appearances, advancing to three Sweet 16s and one Elite Eight. Those teams won at least 20 games in nine of the 10 seasons.
Mack began his coaching career in 1993 as the junior varsity girls basketball coach at McAuley High School in Cincinnati. He was the varsity girls basketball coach at Mount Notre Dame High School in Reading, Ohio, for four years (1995-99), directing the team to four straight sectional titles and earning Cincinnati Post Coach of the Year honors in 1996.

Q: Check if the table "keysystem" value that was inserted has been used or no I'm making a auth for my program and here is the code I used for a simple login:
$query = $con->query("SELECT * FROM keysystem WHERE keysystem = '$keysystem'");
        $cnt2 = $query->num_rows;

        if($cnt2 > 0)
        {
            echo "GOOD";
        }
        else
        {
            echo "BAD";
        }

for C++ I use this:
string DownloadString(string URL) {
    HINTERNET interwebs = InternetOpenA("Mozilla/5.0", INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_DIRECT, NULL, NULL, NULL);
    HINTERNET urlFile;
    string rtn;
    if (interwebs) {
        urlFile = InternetOpenUrlA(interwebs, URL.c_str(), NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);
        if (urlFile) {
            char buffer[2000];
            DWORD bytesRead;
            do {
                InternetReadFile(urlFile, buffer, 2000, &bytesRead);
                rtn.append(buffer, bytesRead);
                memset(buffer, 0, 2000);
            } while (bytesRead);
            InternetCloseHandle(interwebs);
            InternetCloseHandle(urlFile);
            string p = replaceAll(rtn, "|n", "\r\n");
            return p;
        }
    }
    InternetCloseHandle(interwebs);
    string p = replaceAll(rtn, "|n", "\r\n");
    return p;
}

string login = DownloadString("http://website.com/handler.php?action=login&keysystem=" + license).c_str();

    if (login.find("890") != std::string::npos)
    {
        char buffer[256];
            print::set_text("\n  Successfully logged in!\n\n", Green);

            printf("\n\n");
            Beep(666, 200);
            Sleep(2000);
    }

    else if (login.find("880") != std::string::npos)
    {
        print::set_text("\n  Failed to log in! ", Red);
        Beep(666, 200);
        Sleep(2000);
        exit(0);
    }

It works fine but I want to check if the key is already used by someone or not.

A: To understand if your key is used you can add a field, which stores if key is used of not, e.g. is_used with true \ false values.
Then your query becomes:
SELECT * FROM keysystem WHERE keysystem = '$keysystem' and is_used = false

Of course, don't forget to set field is_used to true when someone starts to use it.

Indiana House Split on Anti-Gay Marriage Amendment
Andy Towle January 27, 2014
The full Indiana House will consider the constitutional amendment that would ban gay marriage this week, and a survey of lawmakers shows that the landscape has changed markedly since the last time such a measure was considered, but not enough to kill it.
The Indianapolis Star reports:
More than a third of the Indiana House members who voted for a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage in 2011 now plan to vote against it or are wavering.
The number switching to support the amendment? Zero….
…Of the 100 House members, 38 plan to vote for the measure, House Joint Resolution 3, while 38 plan to vote against it. The other 24 said they were undecided (13) or declined to comment (11).
That gives opponents a better shot than most anyone expected just weeks ago, but they still need to woo 13 noncommitted lawmakers — including at least 11 Republicans — to kill the ban.
"Everyone assumed it would be closer this time than in 2011," said Andy Downs, director of the Mike Downs Center for Indiana Politics at Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne. "But this is a lot closer than I think people would have expected.
