grandma's cookie jar: just for fun - It Is, "Make Up Your Own Holiday Day"!
just for fun - It Is, "Make Up Your Own Holiday Day"!
My grandson Josiah is sick today, so he and his brother Caleb are hanging out at my house. Since it is, "Make Up Your Own Holiday Day", I thought it would be especially fun on this day for us to make up our own holiday!
Josiah thought we should call our "holiday"; Sharing Day and of course this special day requires a present! We decided he and Caleb could share the present; since it is, "Sharing Day"! I gave them a Mega-Blocks set with dragons and a spaceship . . . of course, this meant I needed to help them build it . . . the reason this post is so late!
We are having fun on, "Sharing Day" . . . what will you name your, "holiday" on, "Make Up Your Own Holiday Day"?
When will the Isabelle contest results be up?
If you read the Isabelle posts, you'll see the date for the drawing - May 24, 2014 - are you over the age of 18?

Q: Lex: recognizing data type in a file I'm a beginner in lex. My program is to read a file and recognize the data types.
I'm getting this error by writing "gcc -c lex.yy.c" in windows command line:-
code1.l: In function 'yylex':
code1.l:8:2: error: expected ';' before '{' token
My input file is:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int a;
    float b;
    long int c;
    long long int d;

    return 0;
}

My lex code is
    %{
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
%}

%%
    "int"
    {
        printf("%s ->Intger data type\n", yytext);
    }
    "float"
    {
        printf("%s ->Floating point data type\n", yytext);
    }
    "double"
    {
        printf("%s ->double data type\n", yytext);
    }

}

int main()
{
    FILE *fp = fopen("sampleIO.txt","r");
    yyin=fp;

    return 0;
}

I can't find the error.Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

A: In lex/flex, the patterns must start right at the beginning of a line, as explained in the flex manual:
 The rules section of the flex input contains a series of rules of the form:
      pattern   action
where the pattern must be unindented and the action must begin on the same line.
Moreover,

Any indented text… is copied verbatim to the output.

So your indented patterns, starting at line 8 as indicated in the gcc error message, were just passed straight through to the lex.yy.c file, where they failed to compile because they are not valid C.
Also, patterns cannot have unquoted whitespace. So even with correct indentation, the pattern:
"long"([ ])([ ])* "int"

would need to be written
"long"([ ])([ ])*"int"

With the extra space, it looks to flex like a pattern ("long"([ ])([ ])*) and an action ("int"). There is no need to place parentheses around square brackets; that only serves to obscure the pattern. And flex includes both the * regular expression operator (0 or more repeats) and the + operator (1 or more repeats), so that pattern could be written as:
"long"[ ]+"int"

which is much clearer, but not actually correct; the words long and int could be separated by tabs or newline characters (or, as it happens, comments, but we won't get into that just yet). So a better but still not perfect pattern might be:
"long"[[:space:]]+"int"

A: Fixed it up for you. It compiles OK now.
Update my source for white-space correctness.
%{
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
%}

%option noyywrap

%%
"int"       { printf("%s ->Intger data type\n", yytext);             }
"float"     { printf("%s ->Floating point data type\n", yytext);     }
"double"    { printf("%s ->double data type\n", yytext);             }
"char"      { printf("%s ->character data type\n", yytext);          }

Q: How to get Attributes from DOMElement I have this DOMElement.
I have two questions:
1) What means object value omitted?
2) How can I get the attributes from this DOMElement?
 object(DOMElement)#554 (18) {
        ["tagName"]=>
        string(5) "input"
        ["schemaTypeInfo"]=>
        NULL
        ["nodeName"]=>
        string(5) "input"
        ["nodeValue"]=>
        string(0) ""
        ["nodeType"]=>
        int(1)
        ["parentNode"]=>
        string(22) "(object value omitted)"
        ["childNodes"]=>
        string(22) "(object value omitted)"
        ["firstChild"]=>
        NULL
        ["lastChild"]=>
        NULL
        ["previousSibling"]=>
        string(22) "(object value omitted)"
        ["nextSibling"]=>
        string(22) "(object value omitted)"
        ["attributes"]=>
        string(22) "(object value omitted)"
        ["ownerDocument"]=>
        string(22) "(object value omitted)"
        ["namespaceURI"]=>
        NULL
        ["prefix"]=>
        string(0) ""
        ["localName"]=>
        string(5) "input"
        ["baseURI"]=>
        NULL
        ["textContent"]=>
        string(0) ""
      }

I have made this class to access the object. The purpose of this is so that I can get the type attribute from an input field.
<?php

namespace App\Model;

class Field
{
    /**
     * @var \DOMElement
     */
    protected $node;

    public function __construct($node){
        $this->node = $node;
    }

    public function getNode(){
        return $this->node;
    }

    public function getTagName(){

        foreach ($this->node as $value) {
            return $value->tagName;
        }
    }

    public function getAttribute(){

    }
}

A: *

*I believe (object value omitted) is just some internal DOM or var_dump() restriction, to prevent dumping too deep and/or dumping recursive information about the object graph.

*Then, about getting information about attributes:

*

*To get all attributes of a DOMElement, you would use the attributes property, which is defined on its parent class DOMNode and returns a DOMNamedNodeMap with DOMAttr nodes:
// $this->node must be a DOMElement, otherwise $attributes will be NULL
$attributes = $this->node->attributes;

// then, to loop through all attributes:
foreach( $attributes as $attribute ) {
  // do something with $attribute (which will be a DOMAttr instance)
}
// or, perhaps like so:
for( $i = 0; $i < $attributes->length; $i++ ) {
  $attribute = $attributes->item( $i );
  // do something with $attribute (which will be a DOMAttr instance)
}

// to get a single attribute from the map:
$typeAttribute = $attributes->getNamedItem( 'type' );
// (which will be a DOMAttr instance or NULL if it doesn't exist)

*To get just one attribute, named type from a DOMElement, you could use:

*

*DOMElement::getAttributeNode(), to get aDOMAttr node that represents the type attribute, like so:
$typeAttr = $this->node->getAttributeNode( 'type' );
// (which will be NULL if it doesn't exist)

or

*DOMElement::getAttribute(), to get the string value of the attribute type, like so:
$typeAttrValue = $this->node->getAttribute( 'type' );
// (which will an empty string if it doesn't exist)

Disney originally passed on Marvel for being 'too edgy,' says CEO
Disney CEO Bob Iger reveals in his memoir why his predecessor, former CEO Michael Eisner, originally passed on Marvel.
Sept. 23, 2019 11:28 p.m. PT
Thanks to Disney buying Marvel Entertainment fans get blockbuster MCU movies like Avengers: Endgame.
Back when Disney was run by CEO Michael Eisner, the idea of buying a company full of superheroes wasn't considered very enticing by various executives.
Disney CEO Bob Iger reveals in his new memoir The Ride of a Lifetime: Lessons Learned from 15 Years as CEO of the Walt Disney Company that Disney nearly purchased Marvel Entertainment earlier, but those in charge at the time considered the company "too edgy," according CNET's sister site ComicBook.com on Monday.
"Early in my time working for Michael, I attended a staff lunch in which he floated the idea of acquiring [Marvel]; a handful of executives around the table objected," Iger wrote in his book.
"Marvel was too edgy, they said. It would tarnish the Disney brand. There was an assumption at the time -- internally, and among members of the board -- that Disney was a single, monolithic brand, and all of our businesses existed beneath the Disney umbrella.
"I sensed Michael knew better, but any negative reaction to the brand, or suggestion that it wasn't being managed well, he took personally."
Disney and Marvel didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
Iger succeeded Eisner as CEO of Disney in 2005. In 2009, The Walt Disney Company acquired Marvel Entertainment for $4.24 billion. Since Disney acquired Marvel, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has taken in more than $18 billion at the global box office. Not a bad return on the investment.

The feeling seems mutual. Last year, Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige said the Disney partnership helped Marvel become the success it is today.
"I'm not sure we would be here if we weren't bought by Disney," Feige said at the 2018 Produced By conference in June, where he explained that Marvel Studios benefits from Disney's smart marketing and distribution plans.
Now with the Disney Plus streaming service launching on Nov. 12, and Phase 4 of MCU movies coming out starting with the Black Widow standalone movie on May 1, 2020, fans will continue to benefit from the Disney-Marvel partnership.

Park Air Systems, a UK-based air traffic management subsidiary of Northrop Grumman, has upgraded the ground-to-air radio communications at Heathrow Airport with new radios and servers.
Centred on the Park Air T6 radio and the MARC Server computer system, part of the Park Air Sapphire portfolio, the solution is live from today at London's busiest airport.
With passenger numbers at Heathrow increasing annually since 2011 to a peak of over 75m in 2016, Park Air Systems have worked extensively to provide communications that can support the growing number of passengers.
The company told The Cambridge Phenomenon that during the redesign of the T6 radio, engineers from Northrop Grumman folded origami models of each component from blocks of foam, to test their suitability inside the radio' casing.
Engineers associated with the National Air Traffic Services (NATS), which provides services to 2.4m UK flights annually, were trained in the new equipment at the Park Air Academy, a purpose-built facility operated by Park Air Systems.
The first version of the T6 radio was released in 1999 and went on to sell over 20,000 units globally, becoming Park Air Systems' most popular product. According to Northrop Grumman, "it meets stringent environmental demands with significantly lower power consumption." It boasts a version three Simple Network Management Protocol for additional security, and has demonstrated its effectiveness in tests from 22 to 55oC.
The MARC Server is a piece of plug-in software designed to monitor and control devices such as the T6. The program is browser-based, and so can be accessed from a range of devices including laptops and tablets, and has been designed to support a range of high and low-bandwidth networks.


Sydney FC midfielder Josh Brillante has earned a call up to the Socceroos 29-man preliminary squad selected by Head Coach Bert van Marwijk for the upcoming friendly clashes against Norway and Colombia.
With 100 days to go until the 2018 FIFA World Cup™ kicks off in Russia, twenty-two of the players involved with Australia's successful FIFA World Cup™ Inter-Confederation play-off against Honduras last November have been selected in the first preliminary squad of van Marwijk's reign, while seven new or returning players have been added to the Caltex Socceroos mix.
Brillante returns after four years, following his scintilating form for the Sky Blues, to join former Sky Blue team mates Danny Vukovic and Matt Jurman in the national team set up.
Brillante's form for the Sky Blues' has seen him re-called to the Socceroos for the first time in four years.
Goalkeeper Brad Jones, defender James Meredith, and attacker Jamie Maclaren are among the capped Caltex Socceroos players to be included in van Marwijk's preliminary squad, while uncapped 22-year-old defender Aleksandar Susnjar could receive his first senior international call-up. Susnjar, who plays for FK Mlada Boleslav in Czech Republic, impressed in the heart of defence for Australia at January's 2018 AFC U-23 Championship held in China.
"Since my appointment with the Socceroos, my staff, scouts and I have monitored over 100 Australian players in the Hyundai A-League, as well as in leagues across Europe and Asia," said van Marwijk.
"We are pleased with the initial 29 players we have picked for our upcoming games against Norway and Colombia and will finalise the squad next week.
"There are still a couple of weeks before the group gathers in Oslo, so we will continue to monitor the health and fitness of all the players in the preliminary squad, as well as those on our longer list of potential World Cup squad members.
"Our upcoming matches against Norway and Colombia will provide a great chance for the players selected to press their claims for Russia, however the door remains ajar for all players not picked for the March window," concluded van Marwijk.
The Caltex Socceroos will convene in Oslo on Monday, 19 March 2018. The squad will take on Norway at the Ullevaal Stadion on Friday, 23 March, before shifting to London on Saturday, 24 March. On Tuesday, 27 March Australia will play Colombia at Craven Cottage in west London. Both friendly matches will be broadcast LIVE on FOX SPORTS and Network Ten.

One of the ideas about permaculture which resonates with me quite strongly is that everything you need is available to you, you just need to learn to take advantage of the resources you have. This isn't the radical self-reliance ideal which has been so problematic for many people suffering various forms of disadvantage, from mental health problems to fiscal difficulties; this is the idea that you make your own luck by paying attention and taking opportunities when they present themselves. I really like that.
The latest illustration of this idea is embodied in some free mulch. A lady I work with was talking to my project manager about plants and she advised him to mulch his garden to save water & improve the soil – and then she asked if he wanted some mulch. Turns out she'd just had a tree taken out and had the guy mulch it and leave the mulch, but it's far more mulch than she needs. I figured she'd probably be happy to have the same conversation with anyone, so jumped in and I said that if she had excess mulch, I'd be happy to take some. She said she'd love that because she really wants it gone, and none of her friends or family are interested. So we went and picked up a trailer load of high quality organic wood chip mulch to spread over my in-progress herb garden.
It makes me deeply happy to do things like that, create situations where everyone benefits that way.
The whole album is awesome, by the way. You should listen to it.
George, relaxed & sleeping after getting home from the vet.
The view out the back door. It's still a bit Mars-like, but we'll get some pasture down next winter and put some fruit trees in. The hedge maze will be out there, too, once we get that planted.
Boxes of books to unpack once the shelves in the library are up. Also, some of the tree decals.
My unfinished mediterranean / arid herb garden along the front of the house.
And more boxes to unpack – the craft storage room is actually a lot more under control than this picture would lead you to believe.
And to finish on the same note as I started, some mid-morning kitty cuddles.

Q: How to upgrade multiple file of database in magento 2 I am not able to update upgrade schema file.
I want to update database using upgrade schema file that i have already updated.
In my module i have a database table which is created using install schema file.
This is my UpgradeSchema file

This is not work properly

A: Seems that you have a mistake in the addColumn() definitions.
You should use 'type' instead of 'type123'.

NEW DELHI: India is expanding its military presence around the globe. No, it's not covertly establishing military bases or outposts overseas. Instead, New Delhi is slowly but steadily cranking up the number of its defence attachés or advisors (DAs) deployed abroad as part of its larger military diplomacy strategy.
Only the US, the UK and Russia have Indian DAs from all three Services till now. India is also going to post a naval attaché (NA) to Beijing, even as it steps up its maritime engagement with countries in the IOR.

Special gift drive at Higgins Armory Museum extended through December
Kristen O'Neil/CNC correspondent
For many people, it is often difficult to look beyond the borders of their own hometown. So how can someone here possibly do something that feels meaningful enough to help people living amid the war in Iraq, thousands of miles away?
The staff at Higgins Armory Museum in Worcester, the home of historic military armor and artifacts from many centuries past, has hit on some ways to do just that. They're currently helping others to explore military history while the museum is also honoring military visitors coming to the museum. And at the same time, the museum is working to bring hope to the lives of children overseas in Iraq by taking part in a unique U.S. soldier-founded gift program there.
As a part of Modern Military Month and Veterans Day in November and the recent return of the Age of Armor exhibit to the Higgins, the museum has been honoring military personnel and their dependents all through November with free admission to the museum. And the museum through December is collecting deflated soccer balls from visitor-donors -- for a U.S. soldier's Operation Soccer Ball which serves children in war-torn Iraq.
Each soccer ball donated in November and December by museum visitors at the Higgins Armory Museum guarantees the museum-goer one free admission for the day. The soccer balls collected through the drive at the museum will be sent overseas to be reinflated and distributed as gifts to Iraqi children by U.S. military personnel serving there. The soccer ball drive is an effort that aims to help instill good relations between the Iraqi people and U.S. military and to help give the people of Iraq a breather that spurs hope to regroup and rebuild.
"This is an easy way to get involved," the Higgins museum's Development Associate, Kerry Castorano, said of Operation Soccer Ball. "If we can help out in some way, any way, we love to do it."
Modern Military Month and the museum's Age of Armor exhibit were both created in order to honor those in our armed forces. According to Castorano, the Age of Armor exhibit is a timeline and artifacts exhibit meant to show the progression of change in armor from early times across the world right up to what the active members of our military currently wear to protect themselves.
"It's a temporary exhibit that has been traveling the country for five years, and has finally come back home," Castorano said. "It was in 16 different museums, all of which had a great turnout" at the exhibit. "We have now put it back up here, and each month has a different theme. On Veterans Day, we brought in active veterans of the National Guard and showed the progression, comparing their armor beside 14th- or 15th-century armor, what it was like then, and what it's like now."
Through conversations with those veterans and a friend who is currently serving in Iraq, Higgins Education Director Devon Kurtz learned about Operation Soccer Ball -- and came up with the idea of getting the historic military artifacts museum involved.
"I have a friend that is stationed in Baghdad, and his comrade, Major Ravi Chaudhary, is an organizer for Operation Soccer Ball," Kurtz said. "Since I am in direct contact with Major Chaudhary, we will send the soccer balls directly to his address with the U.S. Air Force in Iraq."
Because the Higgins Armory Museum has already been involved in numerous youth outreach programs here, assisting Operation Soccer Ball was a natural match. And it helps the museum bring their commitment to youth to children overseas, too, while still keeping what they do connected to the museum's ongoing theme and collections.
"I think, really, this is a way for our museum to show our support for the men and women who are serving," Kurtz said. And "it's contributing in a way to the peacekeeping efforts." Plus "it's showing we (the museum) are relevant to something going on overseas" today.
Operation Soccer Ball was started by Army 1st. Lt. Daniel Merritt of Connecticut and his family. The program fosters friendships and better relations between the United States forces and Iraqi young people by bringing the young Iraqis free soccer balls to play with.
Merritt's mission is simple - to build hope among the Iraqi people "one soccer ball at a time."
Merritt, a Connecticut native, has been serving in Iraq with the 511th Military Police Company, where he and his platoon are in charge of multiple police stations and interact with the people of Iraq every single day. He describes the Iraqi people on his Operation Soccer ball Web site as generally so poor that they lack many everyday amenities we take for granted here and, in addition, are living with the added problems of the war around them.
"While they rebuild their country, the one constant source of enjoyment, of hope, is soccer," Merritt writes on his Web page. "When they play soccer it consumes them, it builds them into a team, it keeps them out of trouble, it makes them forget how hard their life can be, and, most of all, it gives them hope for a better tomorrow - a hope all Americans should help to build."
The staff at the Higgins Museum, after hearing about Operation Soccer Ball, wanted to take part in building that hope. But they need the help and generosity of more museum patrons and visitors donating more soccer balls to do so. So the museum has extended its November drive for soccer balls to run through December, as well, to really get the international gift of hope program rolling stronger.
For Major Chaudhary, the museum's Operation Soccer Ball drive is a gift that goes beyond just today and a game. Chaudhary shared with his friend Devon Kurtz at the museum that, in just a few moments kicking around a soccer ball with the children in Iraq, the children and American military forgot their problems and they were all able to speak the same language -- soccer. The only word Chaudhary could think of for that ineffable shared feeling was hope.
In a time of turmoil, it truly can be moments like that and the little things which make a big difference long run.
So at the Higgins Armory Museum, Devon Kurtz says: "Hopefully the donations will start pouring in (more) and we can send out a couple of shipments" to Operation Soccer Ball in Iraq.

Q: Is it possible to read crawldb using java code? I am using Nutch to crawl a website, and i want to collect all 404 urls in the crawling process. Then i looked up Nutch wiki and i found that using nutch command 'readdb' can produce something like:

http://xxx.yy.com/  Version: 7
Status: 1 (db_unfetched)
Fetch time: Sun Dec 08 21:42:34 CST 2013
Modified time: Thu Jan 01 08:00:00 CST 1970
Retries since fetch: 0
Retry interval: 2592000 seconds (30 days)
Score: 1
Signature: null
Metadata:

And all 404 urls has the status 3.
I think that these imformathion are all from crawldb. So is there any way to read crawldb using java code? I also learned that nutch stores data on HDFS, so do i need using hadoop tools to read them? Or is there any better way to achieve my requirement?
P.s. My Nutch version is 1.13, and my running environment is Ubuntu16.04

A: Nutch is written in Java, so yes is possible, actually the readdb command is doing that exactly, the logic of the readdb command is in the org.apache.nutch.crawl.CrawlDbReader class. You can take a look there to implement your own command.
About the Hadoop part of your question, Nutch is built on top of Hadoop, meaning we use the Hadoop libraries, even if you're running Nutch locally, so you should use the Hadoop libraries (especially if you want to run your crawler in a cluster at some point).
If you just want to get a list of all the 404, you could use the -status option of the readdb command.
You could also take a look at NUTCH-2229 which added support for using JEXL expressions on the readdb command so you could just get the list of 404 URLs from the CrawlDB without the need to write your own code.

These Are the Risks Factors That Are Weakening Australian Businesses, According to an Expert
by wizards | Articles, Google My Business Article, Tools Article | 0 comments
As Australian businesses face a new set of threats created by the COVID-19 pandemic, it's important to assess how they can maintain their resilience.
Whether it's starting a new business or expanding a current one, making strategic choices that will help your business remain strong is more important than ever. One way to check is FM Global's Resilience Index, an online tool that uses compiled data for almost 130 countries to rank the resilience of their business environments.
To better understand the data presented by FM Global's Resilience Index and how it can be applied, we spoke with Lynette Schultheis, the Operations Manager for FM Global Australia.
What is the FM Global Resilience Index?
Updated annually, FM Global's Resilience Index is a tool that provides information regarding a country's resilience, which is analysed according to 12 drivers that are split over three categories. These categories and drivers provide data relating to a country's relative commercial and industrial property risk, political and macroeconomic influences, and the quality of their supply chain. Broken down, these categories are:
Economic: Productivity, political risk, oil intensity, urbanisation rate.
Risk quality: Exposure to natural hazard, natural hazard risk quality, fire risk quality, inherent cyber risk.
Supply chain: Control of corruption, quality of infrastructure, corporate governance, supply chain visibility.
The Resilience Index provides an overall ranking and score for almost 130 countries, with separate rankings for each category. For example, a country like Singapore has an overall ranking of 22. Under its individual categories, Singapore is ranked first in supply chain strength, but 37th in economic and 42nd in risk quality.
How can the Resilience Index be used by businesses?
According to FM Global, the Resilience Index can be used by companies to help "evaluate regions, site business operations, select partners and make more informed strategic choices" when it comes to evaluating and managing the potential risks of their business strategies.
By using the index, companies can make an informed choice when it comes to making important decisions that can affect their market share and growth. By being more resilient, a business is more likely to maintain its overall value when affected by economic, social and environmental factors.
An example that Schultheis uses is that if a company is caught between two international suppliers and they aren't sure which one to take up, they can use the Resilience Index to compare the two countries.
"You can use it to evaluate your current supply chain," Schultheis explains, "If you're considering expanding your operations, you can assess where you already have suppliers or where you're considering a new one."
"One could be cheaper, but their resilience could be incredibly low. I'd lean towards the one with a higher resilience score because they'll be around when you need them."
What does the data say about Australia?
Australia's current overall score is 90.1 out of 100, and we're ranked 17 out of 130 countries. This puts us on roughly equal footing as countries like Canada (90.2), New Zealand (90.5), France (90.7), Ireland (90.8) and the United Kingdom (90.8).
For the individual categories, Australia is ranked 18th for economic, 22nd for supply chain and 10th for risk quality. In terms of individual drivers, Australia has done well when it comes to fire risk quality (7th), the control of corruption (14th), natural hazard risk quality (15th), supply chain visibility (22nd) and the quality of infrastructure (31st).
Looking at the scores and rankings for the last five years, Australia has maintained a consistent placement. In 2016, we were ranked 14th overall with a score of 91.
What factors affect Australia's ranking?
As bushfires are a major natural disaster in Australia, it makes sense that fire-resistant building codes have been greatly enforced, leading to a high global ranking. The same can be said about our overall ability to weather the effects of natural hazards.
The general operation of businesses is also able to be maintained due to Australia's overall infrastructure when it comes to transport, telephony and energy, being consistently good.
With that in mind, Schultheis also notes there are a few drivers that could do with some strengthening. Our oil intensity ranking is 93 out of 130, so we're quite vulnerable to an oil shock caused by the shortage, disruption or price hike.
Australia could also look to improve in the influence of corporate governance (41st), which is scored based on "the strength of auditing and accounting standards, conflict of interest regulation and shareholder governance." Our vulnerability to cyber attacks is also middling (48th) – but there's potential to improve.
"Especially during COVID, you've noticed that there's been a surge of cyber attacks," Schultheis said. "There's been breaches of security caused by working from home because it's just not as secure.
"If Australia could become more strenuous or resilient in their cyber resistance or cybersecurity, I think that would definitely elevate their ranking."
Schultheis also points out that the overall ranking of Australia – and every other country listed – is relative. In other words, our placement could increase because we've strengthened our individual drivers, or it could increase because other countries have weakened.
By using the Resilience Index as a guide, Australian businesses can make an active step to strengthening their resilience while also making informed decisions when it comes to making important operational choices. A more resilient business is a steadier business.

What better way to assess an applicants job potential than to actually have them complete a portion of the work they will be doing? In addition to more traditional testing methods (e.g., cognitive tests, personality questionnaires, etc.), many organizations include work samples or simulations in their decision-making processes.
Such exercises are carefully constructed to simulate on-the-job situations. This type of exercise can range from something as simple as having the candidate design and deliver a presentation (to assess presentation skills for a training position) to having candidates complete an elaborate, highly structured computerized simulation (to be used to assess ones ability to operate expensive, potentially dangerous equipment). Two common simulations are the In-Basket exercise and the Role-Play.
In-Basket exercises are typically designed to simulate the administrative tasks of a job. In the typical In-Basket, the test taker is given background information on either the actual organization or a fictitious company and is asked to assume a specific role in the organization. The test taker is often asked to respond to letters, memos, e-mails, requests, personnel issues, and so forth, in a given amount of time. A time limit may be imposed in order to simulate the time pressure experienced in many jobs. In-Basket exercises are usually designed to assess the candidates ability to manage multiple tasks, prioritize and delegate work, and analyze information quickly. In-Basket exercises may be administered via paper-and-pencil methods or via computer. Scoring of In-Baskets varies considerably, with some more easily scored via computerized templates and others requiring careful review by a trained evaluator.
Role-Play exercises are designed to simulate the interpersonal challenges faced when working with others. In the typical role-play, the candidate is given background information regarding the scenario and asked to play a particular role (e.g., team leader, customer service representative). During the exercise, he or she interacts directly with a trained role-player (actor). This actor often plays the role of a subordinate, coworker, or customer and responds to the candidate according to a script. Role-Play exercises are usually designed to assess the candidates communication and interpersonal skills. Performance may be observed by a trained evaluator, or may be videotaped and evaluated at a later time.

The Last Video Store
By Alex Jabre
October 7 was my very first shift at FLiX. At 5:30 p.m., I open up the store, feeling jittery and immediately grab a pack of Sour Punch Straws. I pop in Good Night and Good Luck in the DVD player, as a consolation for having to miss the free screening of The Ides of March that night. My shift went well for the most part, despite a few mistakes, and when it was over I had officially worked a job for the first time in my life.
The FLiX video store, which was established in 2003, is finally closing its doors after nine years of business. It's truly a bittersweet moment for me. It's sad because this long-lasting business that made so many people happy is
saying good-bye, but I was at least able to be a part of it for a year. The notion that we would outlast other video store chains likeBlockbuster was once unthinkable, but we did it; we really are the last video store. My first memory of FLiX is
from the night when my brother Nick and I had just returned from a basketball game at Cintas. We
decided to pop into the store, and I immediately fell in love with it. We ended up renting Scary Movie 4 and laughed all night at its glorious disgustingness. Honestly, FLiX was one of the reasons why I wanted to come to Xavier. I immediately looked for a position in the fall after hearing horror stories of its near-closure. I knew it would be perhaps my only chance to work at a video store while they were still around. From October to now, I worked about two shifts a week, three hours each, but the time always
flew by so quickly. How can it not when you're surrounded by
hundreds of movies? As the store manager, one thing I really enjoyed was interacting with the customers
- giving them suggestions, complementing them on their
choices, or (in my case) ever singing to them. Yeah, I was that guy. My mantra to the customers was: "Here at FLiX, we love you!" Contrary to popular belief, I actually didn't watch movies in the store most of the time; I was too busy catching up on homework. But indeed, I always reveled at
the prospect of having free movies constantly at my fingertips. We were never paid, and yet I still volunteered for extra shifts anyway. That's how much I loved working there.
Eventually, we all realized that FLiX just wasn't going to last for the next few years. Deciding to close down our doors was incredibly difficult, but ultimately, the right thing to do. I ended up getting the last shift of FLiX. I celebrated this, in a bookending fashion, by chewing on Sour Punch Straws as Darren Aronofsky's mathematical thriller Pi played on
TV. We've managed to sell every DVD and the funds from the store are either going to be used to start up a new business or be liquidated for a scholarship, which - oddly enough - was what FLiX was always meant to do from the
beginning. That gave me some comfort. Working at FLiX was the best first job I could've asked for, and I'm eternally grateful for the opportunity to have worked there.
I only bought one movie during the sale. Scary Movie 4. It was the one that started it all.

Q: Finding html element onPreRender state of User Control I have a user control which has html elements like <input type="button".... and i want to set its display property on preRender state.
Would you please explain, what kind things i have to handle this user control? So, in this function
protected override void OnPreRender(EventArgs e) { }
I have only EventArgs e and it doesn't have proper method or properties to bring me the html of user control.
Thank you from now...

A: The easiest way to control visibility of elements from the server side is to promote them to server controls. For example:
<input id="mybutton" runat="server" type="button" ...

Doing so would allow you to execute a statement like the following in your OnPreRender() event:
mybutton.Visible = false; // removes the element

Or...
mybutton.Style[HtmlTextWriterStyle.Display] = "none"; // styles the element

Courageous Christian on death bed asks mother to forgive Isis thugs who burned her alive
By William Watkinson
May 18, 2016 21:10 BST
A Christian child on her death bed used her final words to ask her mother to forgive the Islamic State (Isis) thugs who burned her alive in her home. The courageous child, believed to be around 12-years-old, was burned in the Daesh (Isis) stronghold of Mosul, in northern Iraq, after her family were shaken down by the jihadists for Jaziya — a religious tax.
The tax is paid by all non-Muslims in Isis territory and a refusal often leads to a grisly death at the hands of a brutal jihadi enforcer. Isis intolerance towards other faiths means Iraq is now the second most dangerous place in the world for Christians — who are considered apostates and often tortured to death by the terrorists — only beaten by North Korea.

The extremists were said to be doing house-to-house collections when they gave the girl's mother a frightening ultimatum. They told the family they must leave their home immediately or pay — but when asked for a few seconds to grab the cash the thugs decided to show the limits of their mercy.
Human rights advocate, Jacqueline Isaac, said according to the Express: "The ISIS foreign fighters were at her door and they told her 'you have two choices, you are to leave now or you are to pay the Jaziya'. She said 'I will pay, give me a few seconds my daughter is in the shower'.
"They said 'you don't have a few seconds' and they lit the house with a torch from the bathroom the daughter was showering in."
As the flames engulfed the building the mother ran to rescue her child from the bathroom but before she could pull her from the flames she had been left with fourth-degree burns. Isaac added: "The daughter had fourth degree burns and the mother took her daughter, scrambling, doing anything to save her. Rushed her to the hospital and her daughter died in her arms. The last thing her daughter said: 'Forgive them'."
Out of a population of an estimated 35 million Iraq has 250,000 Christians, which has dropped from around 2 million. Many have fled the brutality of the Islamic State which has also decimated other faiths and ethnic groups such as Shia Muslims, Yazidis and Kurds.

I don't think so; apparently, there are some reasons qt-devs made this change; they say to avoid some corruption (though i don't saw them).
And arch devs dont patch by their own, you know.
You're free to open a bug anyway, i'll support it.
This has a high chance of making it into the official package, IMHO. I'd try to suggest this as a bug report to the package in the repos.
Build in a clean chroot environment, or this will fail.

South Lansing battles against a planned self-storage unit
By Spartan Newsroom | April 24, 2015
By Emma-Jean Bedford
Listen Up Lansing
LANSING — I oppose, I oppose, I oppose. These were the words that were firmly stated by many passionate south Lansing citizens at the Lansing City Council meeting on April 13.
The vacant building at 930 W. Holmes Road is undergoing a rezoning debate within the community of south Lansing. Project developer Randy Yono is requesting to rezone this area in hopes of building an indoor self-storage unit.
Google Maps Image
A vote is pending after the committee determines how much more information they need.
This area of south Lansing on Holmes is currently a commercial district, which means that the primary land use is for commercial activities, such as retail, restaurants, and offices.
However, Yono said he would like to implement a wholesale district instead, which would allow the use of warehouses and public garages.
"This individual is asking to bring in some heavier containers, obviously some trucks and traffic, to unload storage into this area, which is not what it was designed to do. There's a reason for that because of its central location and what we were trying to create at that corner when the commercial properties came in," Lansing City Council member A'Lynne Boles said.
"It's not my first time going into areas where there is a business that has been sitting for years in a community. I don't see why these people would not want something in that community," Yono said.
Yono said he believes that the community of south Lansing would greatly benefit from a new self-storage unit.
"It would bring more tax dollars into the community and it would give people in the community a chance by creating more jobs," Yono said.
South Lansing community member Elaine Womboldt has created a new group called Rejuvenating Lansing.
These residents are passionate about their home and strive to make positive changes by bringing people together to share information, network, and work on problems and solutions together.
The group attended the Lansing City Council meeting in full force.
Womboldt firmly expressed her opinions with courage and determination at the city council meeting. She created a poster that captured the visual change the community would experience if an indoor self-storage unit were built.
"I went there and this is the image of the new-age self-storage business we would have in south Lansing. Now look at downtown Lansing. Do you believe the residents of south Lansing should accept this image? We are not second class citizens that will accept anything because it's better than nothing," Womboldt said.
"At this time, I am asking people present who also oppose this rezoning to stand up," Womboldt said.
With the Council Chambers approximately 100 seats half-full, three-fourths of those in attendance stood up.
"I don't know if they are thinking. When people hear storage units, they think about outdoor units in the parking lot. But, that is not what we are doing. We have enough space to do strictly indoor storage," Yono said.
Boles said she also believes the rezoning would be an "absolutely awful situation for residents."
"Putting a storage unit on that property will bring in individuals that are looking to store their items because they are between homes, because they are leaving the area, or because it's summer for students… that kind of traffic is not the type of traffic you want to create," Boles said.
Yono said he struggles struggled to understand what the community truly wants to see on the corner of Holmes Road and South Washington Avenue.
"They didn't really give any direction to what they did want there. What do you want? An entertainment facility or a theatre won't work there. It's just going to get boarded up with all the other businesses in the area," Yono said.
Claude Beavers said he has lived in Lansing for 46 years and that the implantation of a storage unit on this vacant lot "simply does not reflect what we hope that part of the city to be."
"The history of storage units is not real good. It creates a lot of traffic that is questionable in terms of legal activity," Beavers said.
Even after listening to the members of Rejuvenating Lansing in the city council meeting, Yono said he still believes that an indoor self-storage unit is the best solution.
"We want to make it a viable corner to bring business to the area," Yono said.
Yono said he will be meeting with the members of Rejuvenating Lansing in efforts to help them understand what his true intentions are.
"We are going to let them know what our real plans are. Let them know why, whether it's some sort of entertainment facility or theatre, won't work there. At the end of the day, you want something that will go in there and stay there. Not something that will go in today and be gone tomorrow," Yono said.
A Meridian goat owner fought the law, and the goat owner won
By Riley James
The Meridian Times Staff Reporter
When Mike McCurdy received the notice from the Meridian Township staff that he had to get rid of his five pygmy goats or pay $820 to send a request to rezone his property, he had no idea what to do. "It started with us getting a 30-day notice saying that we had to get rid of our goats in 30 days or we would be fined and face ongoing fines," said McCurdy.


At the beginning I was playing with using marching cubes algorithm to generate landscapes.
At some point I asked myself. What if instead of making mountains we start to drill holes inside the iso-surface? Hmmm. Just make it longer and narrower and you get... Guess what? A tunnel!
All that left is to add fancy colors and the sky. What's nice is that you can play with resolution of the marching cubes grid. Low res looks kind of cool as well.
Doing particle star fields is easy. It's just a bunch of quads front facing the camera.
This one was inspired by experiments of my mate Patrik from shiftcontrol. The idea is to use mask to gradually hide part of the shape and replace it with particles. This can be used to create effects like solid block appearing from dust or in my case shape breaking into small pieces once touching the ground.
The trick is to distribute particles in such a way that we can calculate normals at their positions to compute the lighting and to know when to hide / show them. I use Vertex shaders for that.


So what does it mean to be in a partnership? You don't necessarily have to form a "formal partnership" in the traditional sense to be considered partners or collaborators. Basically, any time you decide to work with someone else, whether it be 1 month or 1 year, and there is MONEY involved, you should recognize that you are entering a relationship that needs to be captured in writing through a partnership agreement.
Selling any product jointly through webinars, teleseminars, etc.
Collaborations can be awesome to grow your business, but to protect your business and your income, you need to sort out some important terms before getting started. Also keep in mind that, for any of the things above (live event, course, etc), you ALSO need a Terms of Purchase in place to protect you both from liability and make sure you have your refund policies, etc. for when those customers come rolling in!
Here's to collaborating in a fun (and legit) way!


Loved this story. intricate but not overly busy storyline. Good characters I could see in my minds eye. The plot wrapped up nicely and not thrown together. I enjoyed every minute.
As with all short story collections, some are shining gems, some diamonds in the rough and some are lumps of coal. It's always a mixed bag. The gems made this worth the purchase - you will know them when you hear them and they will stick with you as all good Stephen King stories do.
Loved Mr Mercedes, loved this one and can't wait for the next. Detective genre is good here and just a little tiny bit of the old Stephen King "monsters + inside us" flavor is seeping into this one now so we can see what to expect with the next. Keep em coming!
I love Dean Koontz books but this one was just all over the place with a few shining moments here and there. Did you ever read a book where you felt like shouting, "yah, yah, just get to the point!" - that is what happened so many times along the way. I wanted to bail out a number of times before the end and made myself finish. I had kind of guessed that BeeBee Blair had something different going on with her imagination part way into the book but it kept on getting buried under layers of stuffing and fluff to make the story more exciting? Don't know if that's what he was going for but it would have been better if he had just gotten there and built on it. Not anywhere near an "Odd Thomas" level of tension or linear storyline or quality. Just not and thus the disappointment.
The story is well written, details fill spaces so that you can see the events and people and with that, your dislike turns to discomfort to revulsion. The character is so far gone into sociopathic behavior - there is nothing left to feel but that you never want to meet them and wonder if you already have met someone like that. Ugh - it was so dark and disturbing, I was happy to finish.
From the very beginning, you want to tell her "No Don't!" but again and again she DOES. It's a slippery slope from the beginning. Poor thing, she must do what she does. Peyton Place has nothing on this sordid community and the people who fill it. The story is bound to end badly and is easily seen from the start but you just don't know exactly how horrible it can get. The writing is precise and compelling with every ugly emotion and detail right out there for you to cringe at. Not a story for people who are looking for any sort of happy ending, but like a car accident - you simply have to look.
This one really fills in the blanks on Vic and some of Cady and Walt's father/daughter relationship details. As usual, lot's of great story twists and turns, fast paced. I'm a Walt Longmire fan so there isn't much that would make me give the books a bad rating!
Could be a movie, about the movies and the train wrecks the whole business leaves in its wake. The characters are full of spicey differences and the name dropping references are fun for those of us who even know who they are anymore. The visuals of the Italian seaside villages are dreamy and the narration is perfect in every way. A Medateranian vacation. Make it a film, I will go. Its just a zen kind of story, drink tea, relax and listen.

Moving Services During the COVID-19 Outbreak
By Office Move Pro
Note: The situation surrounding the novel coronavirus is rapidly evolving. This content reflects the knowledge we have at the time of posting. We will post updates as new information becomes available.
TORONTO MARCH 26, 2020 Canada's provincial governments have confirmed that the moving industry provides essential services during the current health crisis. Therefore, Office Move Pro will continue to serve workplaces also deemed essential as the COVID-19 situation unfolds.
That means we are working to support institutional and commercial operations in providing a safe and sanitary environment for their workers to help slow, and eventually stop, the spread of this virus.
Moving services during the COVID-19 outbreak include preventative measures like reorganizing work environments to increase the physical distance between employees, installing new workstations and delivering equipment to reduce the number of people sharing. During the challenging time of this outbreak, many people are required to be in the workplace while others are working from home. We're helping them get what they need as well by transporting it safely and efficiently, so they can continue doing their jobs.
Our contribution to a safe workplace
Rest assured that we are taking every precaution in line with the latest government guidelines to keep people safe in our work environments and our communities. This includes:
diligently cleaning equipment and vehicles
screening our employees and clients
increasing our physical distance
avoiding close contact
limiting crew sizes
not sharing tools
Our teams across the country have added additional measures to our diligent cleaning and sanitizing routines, including higher frequency and extra attention to high-touch areas like moving bins, vehicles and tools.
We've staggered the number of people working in our own offices and implemented a work-from-home allowance for employees who can perform their jobs at home. We have also increased preventative measures like rigorous daily cleaning and disinfecting in our offices.
What you should expect from your office movers during COVID-19
Office Move Pro will confirm the details of your move ahead of time by phone or email to limit close contact on site. We will also provide you with a COVID-19 Screening Checklist, to be completed in advance of your service date, for everyone's safety. When on site, movers will work quickly and maintain a distance of 1-2 metres whenever possible. They will frequently take brief breaks to wash/sanitize hands to help maintain a healthy work environment.
Your contribution to a safe workplace
Do not permit anyone on site who is coughing, feverish, has trouble breathing, has been in close contact with someone who exhibits any of these symptoms, or who has travelled within the past 14 days. Note: this is now federally mandated under the Quarantine Act.
Recommend self-isolation or find work-from-home solutions for employees who are at a higher risk of contracting COVID-19 due to chronic health conditions.
Disinfect and clean your office, especially high-touch surfaces, at least twice a day, and prior to our arrival.
Maintain a physical distance of 1-2 metres and allow movers to work unencumbered.
Only allow essential staff to be present at the time of moving.
Safety is always a priority for us at Office Move Pro. Now more than ever we are working to keep your workplace a safe and healthy environment.
If we can help you, please reach out.
Does Office Move Pro offer an environmentally friendly moving program?
Yes. Office Move Pro introduced its exclusive ENVIROMOVE program to… Continue reading


Here's my quick take on the whole Expelled mess and the relation to the creationism bills.
I've been closely watching the media reports concerning science education in Florida for a few years now. I've seen tidal waves of news coverage when anti-evolution/anti-science rises from the depths. The Seattle-based Discovery Institute and Ben Stein's cameo appearance in Florida got some media attention, but it was minor compared to previous media tidal waves.
The stories that did run can't be to the Discovery Institutes's liking at all. The reports are actually funny to read as lawyer Casey Luskin and actor Ben Stein tripped and stumbled over intelligent design. As far as the creationism bills ("academic freedom") are concerned, they would just rather tuck intelligent design into a closet and ask everyone to forget about that big failure. These bills are about "freedom of speech" and not intelligent design, except, well, for when it is about intelligent design. That big failure just keeps popping up at the wrong times. Comical.
So, my armchair quarterback assessment of the Discovery Institutes's game? They apparently thought they would walk into Florida and dazzle everyone with their low-watt star power. Didn't happen. They were trounced. My guess is that they hurt their cause more than they helped. A lot of credit goes to the Florida media who did decide to cover this. They knew what to ask, and they then reported what they heard.
Comments made at the press conference make it clear: if these bills are passed, students will introduce intelligent design as they think it is scientific (which it's not), and it will cause court cases and a judge to have to decide whether we are teaching science or theological non-science. This had already happened in Dover, Pa.
These bills and others just like them were rejected several times by other states, promoted now by a group on the West Coast, and being sold by a movie company. Let's be serious here! Scientists and science educators FROM FLORIDA already considered these issues and made their recommendations. The FLORIDA Board of Education considered them also, and approved our new standards. Who are these outsiders trying to mess with FLORIDA kids?
These bills do not protect "academic freedom" as it is used by the scholarly community. K-12 teachers are responsible for teaching the curriculum. These bills would encourage irresponsibility on the part of teachers in bringing in materials without accountability and treating them as having comparable credibility with those of the standard curriculum.
Are legislators really desirous of passing a bill to teach nothing in particular, just in case something was left out of the standards? That certainly doesn't sound right. That's because the Discovery Institute of Seattle wants to teach something specific; and it is not scientific, contrary to their assertions.
The obvious answer to an item brought up during the press conference concerning who would decide what information is scientific is this: Let the scientists decide what is taught in the science classrooms, which should be whatever is the consensus of the scientific community. Those who clearly don't understand science shouldn't be making that decision.
These bills reveal their true purpose by singling out evolutionary science. If an actual principled defense of "academic freedom" were intended, the wording would be general enough to protect teachers wishing to discuss alternative views on any topic.

It really isn't worth your while, unless you wish to understand why it flopped so badly. They do very badly (including Luskin's misrepresentation of a FCS spokesperson's dissing of the bill as so much "crap," as his dissing of "academic freedom" itself as so much "crap"). Stein's still blithering about how you can't discuss the origin of life (when Darwin himself didn't discuss it–so why can't we? The guy really drank the DI Kool-Aid), the cause of gravity, blah blah. I guess he's never heard of abiogenesis research, or physics.
I mean, it's really stupid, and you have to be brain-damaged or quite poorly educated to think it's anything but poor attempts at deception. Any honest Florida legislator would only need to call up a relevant professor to answer their "points," and I'm sure he'd get swift responses to their bilge.
I agree with this most recent blog post, and earlier ones, that this legislation isn't serious. But as I've stated elsewhere, I think that this is serious promotion of their stupid movie.
Their excuse is that the movie is not quite finished. Something doesn't make sense here. If you have an unfinished movie that you don't want to screen to the general public, do you really want to screen it for lawmakers who might be making an important decision based on this unpolished work?
If nothing else, this says that the movie shown to the legislators will not be the same as what the public sees on April 18. Just maybe they do want a different movie shown to legislators who will make important decisions. On the other hand, maybe they want to test the movie for rough spots that don't go down well with the legislators. Maybe this is innocent; but I have little faith–actually, none.
Mr. Stein came to Nashville for a special preview showing of Expelled for several hundred attendees at the annual convention of the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB).
What is easier… to watch something you agree with or watch something you disagree with.
Put out a movie that says it's about faith (or at least everyone knows it is), and say you're being oppressed… no one gets behind a cause like being oppressed.
Nah, they don't win. It's easy too see though their charade. There has been enough "bad" press about this movie that EVERYONE knows this is about pushing a religious agenda and not anything about "academic freedom".
The other waiters may think this is a little nutty, but let it go. Guillermo then starts announcing to all the restaurant patrons "My Cow -God has told me that that eating meat is completely wrong – you should all just order salads or leave". He refuses to serve the customers their steaks, and disrupts the restaurant's business.
The owners of the restaurant let Guillermo go, and Guillermo finds another job at a vegetarian restaurant.
Now enters the Vegetable Institute, a small, well-funded think tank of Cow-God believers who shout to the world – "Waiters are being EXPELLED and SILENCED because they believe in the Cow-God. Children are being taught in school to eat meat! We need to change the cafeteria menus! They proceed to make a movie including an interview with Guillermo saying that he was fired for his beliefs. The movie shows disturbing scenes of filet mignon, prime rib, and Hitler.
Did the other waiters at the steak house want Guillermo to shut up just because his concept of God differed from theirs? Where they just too committed to their "meatism" to see the truth? Or was it that they felt Guillermo was promoting something that they could find no rational basis for, and interfered with their profession needlessly?
I wonder if Ben Stein is ready to do a sequel.
