Man in hotel quarantine says he is being 'held against his will'
A traveller stuck in a quarantine hotel claims he is being "held against his will".
Anthony Pium, who had flown into the UK from Brazil, said hotel quarantine was the "the worst experience of my life" and staff had become "forceful" when he tried to leave for some fresh air.
He has been staying at the Heathrow Radisson Blu Edwardian, one of the hotels chosen for the government's mandatory hotel quarantine scheme.
From 15 February, travellers from 33 "red list" countries – including Portugal, the UAE and most of South America – have to quarantine for 11 nights in a designated hotel at one of five English airports, at a cost of £1,750 per passenger.
The aim of the scheme is to stop Covid variants from spreading in the UK.
Travellers must self-declare that they have been in one these high-risk countries, or risk a £10,000 fine at the border.
The rules of hotel quarantine dictate that travellers, who have to present a negative Covid PCR test at the border as well as undergo additional tests on day two and eight, are not allowed to leave the room.

Mr Pium, who had been in Sao Paulo for work, was pictured holding up a laptop to the hotel window saying "I have told them I can't breath [sic]" and "please send legal help".
He told Press Association that his luggage had been lost at the airport, leaving him without essentials or a change of clothes.
"I'm really upset, I'm really frustrated, and I feel like this is changing my view on how the police and the government help people in this crisis," he said.
"They already know coronavirus affects people mentally and I've been away from my family for two months.
"Now coming back to my own country feels worse than when I was in Brazil.
"They're trapping me in my room and, to be honest, it's the worst experience of my life."

Not even a government agency, it seems, can escape the potentially dire consequences of violating the Massachusetts Wage Act, even when an employee enjoys civil service protection that many thought, at least, provides the sole remedy for covered workers.
In a decision issued last week, the SJC upheld a large judgment for retaliation against the Attleboro Housing Authority. A jury found that the Authority improperly laid off its employee about a month after he filed a seemingly minor complaint that his hourly pay rate should have been higher than it was. The jury awarded a mere $2,300 in lost wages based on the hourly rate discrepancy, then added $130,000 for retaliatory discharge under the Act. The court tripled both figures and awarded legal fees to the employee, as it must under Mass. Gen. L. ch. 149, s. 150, and the award against the Housing Authority exceeded $400,000 before interest at 12% was added.
The moral of this story is patent: when an employee has made any claim regarding the payment of his/her wages, discretion dictates that employers approach layoffs and other job terminations with extreme caution. In the Attleboro Housing Authority case, the poignancy of this lesson is heightened by the fact that the Authority took the plausible position that the Wage Act did not apply because the employee enjoyed the protection of the civil service system, which provides a wholly separate avenue for redress of job terminations like the one at issue. Both the lower court and the SJC concluded, however, that civil service employees have a choice to pursue their claims under the Wage Act.

President Meehan Offers 'Lessons in Leadership'
Today@UMass Lowell
Former Chancellor Discusses College Affordability at 'Leaders in Lowell' Event

UMass President Marty Meehan returned to campus for a Leaders in Lowell event hosted by Lowell Catholic High School students Daniel Russell and Bridget Provost.
By Ed Brennen
When most high school students think about college and how they'll pay for their education, they usually talk to their parents, visit their guidance counselor and maybe do some research online.
A pair of Lowell Catholic High School students, Bridget Provost and Daniel Russell, decided to take things straight to the top, however, by inviting UMass President Marty Meehan into the conversation.
UMass Lowell's former chancellor returned to his hometown campus recently to discuss the power of education and the importance of college affordability at an event called "Lessons in Leadership with Marty Meehan." It was hosted by Leaders in Lowell, a nonprofit speaker series Provost and Russell founded as high school freshmen in 2017 as a way to educate and connect the "next generation of leaders" with their community.
"The student leaders were very impressive. You'd never know they are still in high school," Meehan said of Provost and Russell, who moderated the discussion, which drew close to 100 UMass Lowell students and community members to the Saab ETIC Perry Atrium. "They came prepared with thoughtful questions about important topics that are relevant now — and to their future."
UMass President Marty Meehan discusses the importance of college affordability during the Leaders in Lowell event.
The discussion, which was supported by the Manning School of Business and the Greater Lowell Community Foundation, also featured Distinguished Professor of Higher Education, Emerging Technologies and Innovation Jack Wilson and Senior Vice Chancellor for Finance, Operations and Strategic Planning Joanne Yestramski.
The panelists touched on a variety of ways that UML and the UMass system are working to keep a high-quality education financially accessible to all.
"I believe passionately that education is the great equalizer that makes this country great," said Meehan, who shared his journey as a first-generation college student who worked as a janitor to pay his way through school as an undergrad before going on to serve in the U.S. Congress, as head of UMass Lowell and then president of the UMass system. "Anything that I've achieved in life, I believe, at its core is because of the high-quality education I got here at Lowell."
Faced with a long-term decline in state funding, Meehan said it's "critically important that we find ways to make college education more affordable." One way, he said, is by working closely with community colleges to make it "as seamless as possible" for students to transfer to a UMass school after earning their associate's degree. Universities also must be more entrepreneurial in developing online programs for those looking to complete a degree, as well as certificate and graduate programs.
Graduate student Ralph Saint Louis asks a question about college affordability.
"UMass Lowell is a prototype for collaboration with business and industry," said Meehan, who noted that over the last five years UML students have earned nearly $25 million from co-op positions. "I'm a big believer in experiential learning opportunities like co-ops, which is another way to reduce debt that students may have."
Craig Williams, a sophomore business administration major with a concentration in finance, appreciated hearing how Meehan is trying to keep his education affordable.
"He's only one person, but he does a lot," said Williams, an Honors College student from Cambridge. "If I put myself in Marty's shoes, what he's done is incredible."
Isabella Perez, a sophomore criminal justice major from Boston, was impressed that the event was hosted by high school juniors barely old enough to drive.
"They came here to a college campus to advocate for us, so it's nice to support them," Perez said. "They did a great job."
Leaders in Lowell co-founder Daniel Russell greets Senior Vice Chancellor for Finance, Operations and Strategic Planning Joanne Yestramski, a panelist for the event.
Earlier this year, Provost and Russell visited the White House (by invitation of Vice President Mike Pence) to discuss youth leadership. They said they've been invited to return in January.
"They'll reach out to anyone. They're not afraid to fail," said Kevin Willett, an adjunct faculty member in the Manning School who mentors the students and connected them to the university for the event.
"We were really excited when we heard President Meehan would participate," said Russell, a Dracut resident. "I think it went better than expected."
"Our goal is to not only educate and inspire, but to connect leaders from around the city," added Provost, a North Andover native.
While both students still have time to think about their college paths, Meehan said he was delighted to have them visit his alma mater.
"Anytime you get high school students on to a university campus, that's a good thing," Meehan said. "Not everyone gets to see the quality of our buildings and our faculty, so being on campus makes all the difference in the world."

America's oldest woman dies aged 115, eight months after she was awarded the title
Home/US/Senate Majority leader accuses Gov. Cuomo of WITHHOLDING money from NYC
Senate Majority leader accuses Gov. Cuomo of WITHHOLDING money from NYC
DUK Editor Team Send an email March 11, 2021
Senator Chuck Schumer claimed on Thursday that money directed toward New York City does not always make it past the state legislature in Albany in an apparent swipe at Governor Andrew Cuomo.
The Senate Majority leader made the comment as he announced a massive COVID vaccine push in NYC which will see him hand $32billion allocated for the shots in the COVID relief bill in December straight to the city's Mayor Bill de Blasio.
The New York Senator also promised an injection of an extra $6billion in other federal aid through stimulus checks and funding for the MTA as he praised de Blasio and promised Big Apple residents 'help is on the way'.
'There's money for the MTA, there's money for our schools, and there is money for New York City,' the New York Senator said as he appeared with de Blasio during the Mayor's Thursday morning press conference.
'With the mayor's guidance and a little bit of prodding, we made sure that money doesn't come through Albany, it goes directly to the city because when Albany gets the money sometimes the city doesn't see all of it.'
The criticism comes amid calls for scandal-ridden Cuomo's resignation after six women accused him of sexual harassment.

Governor Andrew Cuomo was criticized by Mayor Bill de Blasio throughout the briefing
'The state is getting more than enough money to deal with their problems as well, but the city of New York gets over $6billion,' he added.
'What that means is that our workers who, through no fault of the city's but because of the loss in revenues, will continue to be working on the job, picking up garbage and doing healthcare and driving the buses and everything else.'
'The mayor was always there working so there's a lot of credit that goes around but Mayor de Blasio … thank you for making this happen.'
De Blasio also praised Schumer whom he referred to as a 'Brooklyn Boy' and said, 'he went to bat for the city every day'.
'He looked out for the city of York by ensuring it's not going through Albany,' de Blasio claimed. 'More is more, senator. Getting the vaccines down to the grassroots is so important.'
Funded by the federal government, the new vaccine effort will see the 100 new community vaccine sites, established at existing Community Health Centers (CHCs), receiving their own supply of doses.
The sites will be organized by the Department of Health and Human Services as part of an effort to expand vaccine access to underserved communities.
'What I say to New Yorkers very simply is help is on the way,' Schumer continued.
He added that the centers already provide health care to about 10 percent of New Yorkers, with a focus on areas where it has previously been a challenge to get a vaccine appointment.

De Blasio also thank the senator for ensuring the money came straight to the city
In the first three months of vaccine distribution in New York City, only 8 percent of administered vaccines have gone to black New Yorkers despite them making up 16 percent of the city's population, according to Rochester First.
'That means more vaccines for New York and many more sites to administer. I've been working with the president and the mayor on the issue of vaccines because we all want more,' he said.
'There's light at the end of the COVID tunnel and that light is centered on access to a free vaccine for all New Yorkers.
'There are going to be more vaccines and better access to vaccine sites and it's on the way via this super charge effort that will utilize New York's community health centers as New York's federally funded vaccine sites.
'New York is positioned to get more shots in arms, especially in areas where COVID has hit the hardest,' Schumer said. 'New York's going to be well on the road to recovery. It's something to celebrate.'
Schumer said that the vaccine push would aid a 'quicker recovery for the city' as he again appeared to take a swipe at Cuomo with praise for the way in which Mayor de Blasio 'worked so well with the federal government'.
Gov. Cuomo has often complained that the federal government is not providing the proper support to New York during his own press conferences.
'We'll continue to work to get NY healthy and on the road to recovery,' Schumer concluded, as he thanked President Joe Biden for spearheading the effort. 'I have no doubt that New York will bounce back.'
'I've been involved in helping New York through all our crisis, whether it was 9/11 or the financial crisis or Sandy. In each case the naysayers said New York's finished.
'We're never finished. People love New York, people want to come and live in New York from around the country and around the world and New Yorkers? We love New York, we couldn't live anywhere else.'
Mayor Bill de Blasio had voiced frustration at the number of vaccine doses that were being allocated to the city. Pictured, people wait in line to receive COVID-19 vaccinations in NYC
Long lines and lack of access has been a major issue in the city's vaccine distribution, as pictured at the Javits Convention Center in Manhattan above in early March
Schumer had also taken a hit at former President Donald Trump during the news conference, who he accused of 'infinite nastiness' for holding up the Gateway tunnel between New York and New Jersey.
The 'super charged' vaccine program announced by Schumer on Thursday will add to the increase in vaccines to New York in the coming weeks after President Biden on Wednesday announced that the government has ordered 100 million doses of the newly approved Johnson & Johnson dose.
De Blasio has often stated that the city could administer more than a half-million shots a week if it had the doses.
He has now said that he believes everyone in the city to be eligible by June 20 while Biden has said that all adults should be able to receive a dose by the end of May.
On Thurday, de Blasio also called for Cuomo's resignation for the first time in light of a new 'disgusting' allegation leveled against the embattled governor.
A sixth woman – and fifth former aide – came forward this week to accuse Cuomo, 63, of sexual misconduct. The woman, whose identity has not yet been made public, claims Cuomo called her to his Executive Mansion last year, where he reached under her blouse and fondled her.
When quizzed during a daily press briefing Thursday whether, considering the latest allegation, he was now ready to publicly call for Cuomo's resignation, de Blasio let out an exasperated sigh, before adding: 'Yeah'.
Closing his eyes and shaking his head, Hizzoner continued: 'The latest report, and the fact that we can talk about how many people have been come forward with accusations. It's not one, it's not two, it's not three, it's not four, it's not five – it's six women who have come forward.
'It's deeply troubling, the specific allegation that the governor called an employee of his – someone who he had power over – he called them to a place and then sexually assaulted her is absolutely unacceptable.
'It's is disgusting to me,' de Blasio continued. 'He can no longer serve as governor. It's as simple as that.'
Schumer during a radio interview called the new claim against Cuomo 'nauseating,' but did not call for the governor to step down.
Later in the press conference, the Mayor also criticized Cuomo – with whom he has an ongoing feud that has heightened as the accusations of harassment and bullying have been presented against the governor – for not consulting the city over the change in quarantine requirements to domestic travelers to the state.
'I believe in local control and here's another case where New York City was not consulted even though we're one of the biggest cities in the world. Of course, I have concerns about this,' de Blasio said, adding he wanted to analyze the guidance with his health team for more detail.
'The introduction of the virus from outside has been one of the biggest and toughest X factors in this whole crisis and something we worry about very much going forward.'
Thursday's announcement comes on the heels of the second largest stimulus bill in the nation's history being passed on Wednesday that will provide $100 billion for New York state's workers and families.

Buhari wants capital punishment for kidnappers
June 24, 2019 June 24, 2019 AdminNews
Sen. Abdulfatai Buhari (APC-Oyo North) on Sunday recommended capital punishment for kidnapping and other forms of violent crimes in order to tackle growing insecurity in the country.
Buhari told newsmen in Ibadan that the spate of kidnapping and killings across the country would continue unabated if such a drastic measure was not taken.
NAN reports that Buhari was the former Chairman, Senate Committee on ICT and Cybercrime, in the 8th National Assembly.
The lawmaker lamented the upsurge in kidnappings and killings across the country, saying violent crimes were becoming a lucrative business for those involved.
"These heinous crimes against humanity have gone beyond the normal Fulani herdsmen attacks and have become a real trade for those who engage in them.
"Let me be honest with you, the situation is nationwide and very worrisome. I believe and I am afraid because Nigerians themselves are yet to take a drastic measures.
"I believe by the time anyone caught in the act faces death penalty other people will learn and stop.
"Kidnappers have been arrested nothing has been done to them. I believe taking them to court is a longer process,'' he said.
He recalled how increasing rate of drug peddling was stemmed in the 80s through drastic measure, adding that lots of people abandoned the trade as soon as government made those caught in the act to face the firing squad.
The lawmaker said that the absence of such punitive measure give those involved in the recent inhuman activities liberty to continue recruiting young people.
"Today, going to Saudi Arabia, Bangkok, Singapore or India with drugs or to commit other forms of crime attracts death penalty and such had to an extent stemmed the trend.
"Nigerians are very stubborn people; they won't change except there is a deterrent. These people collect cash from victims and take it to banks but the banks have not been reporting receipt of strange money accounts," he said.
He called on Nigerians to collaborate with security agencies by providing them vital information on strange persons and movements around them.
Buhari recalled the recent abduction of a former minister's son in Oyo State, noting that the hoodlums could not have operated without information.
"I am sure some people would have supplied information to the culprits on the movement of the former minister's son and the location of his farm.
"Nobody will tell me that Fulani herdsmen came from Niger Republic to abduct him without information,'' he said.
The lawmaker also called on the current administration do the needful, saying the major function of any government was security of lives and properties.
He gave an assurance that the National Assembly would deliberate on the insecurity in the country when it reconvened, adding that it would seek expert opinion and give the necessary backing.
Buhari further cautioned Nigerians against politicisation of whatever measures were evolved to stem the trend, saying insecurity knows no political party, tribe, religion or status.

After two years of moved launch dates by the government and a vague payment structure the Domestic RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive) has finally been announced. Biomass and heat pumps are aimed at off gas areas which equates to around 4 million homes, solar thermal is for everyone.
The scheme will open for applicants in Spring 2014, but installations since July 15th 2009 are eligible to join.
19.2 p/kWh for solar thermal.
The tariffs will be paid for 7 years and will be index linked to RPI as before. 7 years may not seem as good as FIT's but although the period is shorter the ROI will be much higher.
Anything installed now will be eligible for payments once it launches.
The above figures only take into account RHI payments, not fuel savings. For someone using Oil or LPG for heating their savings could run to many £thousands per year.
To qualify, the installation must be accredited by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS), ensuring a minimum quality for equipment and installation company.

Q: Sort GORM query result by a column of a foreign key I have a foreign key relationship that is fully mapped in Grails, let say:
class Hero {
    Long id
    String name
    Long experience

    Pet pet
    .....
}

class Pet {
    Long id
    String name
    Long ownerId
    .....
}

Lets say I want to query all Hero who named their Pet something like "Hiccup". So I'll perform a query to the Hero class:
def matching = Hero.findAll {
    ilike('pet.name', '%Hiccup%')
}

And it worked! The problem is how can I sort the returned List by the Pet's Name column? I've tried:
def matching = Hero.findAll {
    ilike('pet.name', '%Hiccup%')
    orderBy('pet.name', 'asc')
}

But it returns an error:
org.hibernate.QueryException:
could not resolve property: pet.name of: Hero

Thank you.

A: try this:
def matching = Hero.withCriteria {
    pet {
       ilike('name', '%Hiccup%')
       orderBy('name', 'asc')
    }
}

or the other way around:
def matching = Pet.withCriteria {
    projections {
        property('hero')
    }
    ilike('name', '%Hiccup%')
    orderBy('name', 'asc')
}

But this only works when you declare the pet <--> hero relationship with grails command. I dont know if this is a one-to-one / one-to-many
It should be like this (one-to-one):
class Hero {
    Long id
    String name
    Long experience

    static hasOne = [pet:Pet]
    .....
}

class Pet {
    Long id

Q: Como passar o id para a função de exclusão Estou criando uma to-do list, consigo criar os campos com as tarefas, e os elementos com javascript, porém quando clico no botão de fechar, o único campo que desaparece é o último. Eu coloco os elementos criados em um array em forma de objeto e atribuo um valor a cada array criado, mas não consigo passar esse valor pra função de exclusão de forma que o botão exclua todo o campo. O que posso fazer?

var myNodelist = document.getElementsByTagName("LI");
var index = 0;
var array = [];

for (var i = 0; i < myNodelist.length; i++) {
  var span = document.createElement("SPAN");
  var txt = document.createElement("button");
  var xis = document.createTextNode("\u00D7");

  span.appendChild(txt);
  txt.appendChild(xis);
  txt.className = "close";
  myNodelist[i].appendChild(txt);

}

var close = document.getElementsByClassName("close");
for (var i = 0; i < close.length; i++) {
  close[i].onclick = function() {
    var div = this.parentElement;
    div.style.display = "none";
  }
}

function newElement() {

  var li = document.createElement("input");
  var ul = document.createElement("input");
  var done = document.createElement("input");
  done.setAttribute("type", "checkbox");
  var inputText = document.getElementById("myInput").value;
  var inputDate = document.getElementById("time").value;

  done.className = "checkIn";
  li.value = inputText;
  li.className = "valor";
  ul.value = inputDate;
  ul.className = "data";

  var span = document.createElement("SPAN");
  var txt = document.createElement("button");
  var xis = document.createTextNode("\u00D7");

  span.appendChild(txt);
  txt.appendChild(xis);
  txt.className = "close";

  if (inputText === '') {
    alert("Você precisa digitar algo primeiro!");
  } else {
    document.getElementById("recent").appendChild(done).style.width = "20px";
    document.getElementById("recent").appendChild(li);
    document.getElementById("recent").appendChild(ul).style.width = "90px";
    document.getElementById("recent").appendChild(span);

  }

  array.push({
    inputtexto: li,
    inputdata: ul,
    close: txt
  })
  index++;

  for (var i = 0; i < close.length; i++) {
    close[i].onclick = function() {
      var div = this.parentNode;
      div.style.display = "none";
      done.style.display = "none";
      li.style.display = "none";
      ul.style.display = "none";
    }
  }
}

A: O correto é você criar um container (ou wrapper) (uma div ou um span, por exemplo) para cada item adicionado. Da forma que está fazendo, os elementos ficam sem uma referência própria. Veja abaixo a estrutura de como ficam os item adicionados:

  checkbox
  input texto
  input datepicker

    botao X

  checkbox
  input texto
  input datepicker

    botao X

Veja que os itens, que deveriam pertencer a um mesmo grupo, possuem como referência comum apenas a div-pai id="recent", tornando o trabalho complicado, pois fico sem poder selecionar os elementos-filhos que eu quero.
Como mencionado, crie uma div para agrupar os elementos, ficando assim:

    checkbox
    input texto
    input datepicker

      botao X

    checkbox
    input texto
    input datepicker

      botao X

Fiz as alterações comentadas na função abaixo:
function newElement() {
  var li = document.createElement("input");
  var ul = document.createElement("input");
  var done = document.createElement("input");
  var lista = document.createElement("div"); // criar uma div para agrupar os itens
  lista.setAttribute("class", "itens"); // atribuí uma classe à div
  done.setAttribute("type", "checkbox");
  var inputText = document.getElementById("myInput").value;
  var inputDate = document.getElementById("time").value;

  done.className = "checkIn";
  li.value = inputText;
  li.className = "valor";
  ul.value = inputDate;
  ul.className = "data";

  var span = document.createElement("SPAN");
  var txt = document.createElement("button");
  var xis = document.createTextNode("\u00D7");

  span.appendChild(txt);
  txt.appendChild(xis);
  txt.className = "close";

  if (inputText === '') {
    alert("Você precisa digitar algo primeiro!");
  } else {
    document.getElementById("recent").appendChild(lista); // adiciono a div à div-pai
    ultimo_item = document.getElementsByClassName("itens").length-1; // conto quantas divs possui e subtraio por 1 para pegar o index, que começa com 0
    document.getElementsByClassName("itens")[ultimo_item].appendChild(done).style.width = "20px"; // daqui pra baixo eu adiciono os elementos dentro da div
    document.getElementsByClassName("itens")[ultimo_item].appendChild(li);
    document.getElementsByClassName("itens")[ultimo_item].appendChild(ul).style.width = "90px";
    document.getElementsByClassName("itens")[ultimo_item].appendChild(span);

  }

  array.push({
    inputtexto: li,
    inputdata: ul,
    close: txt
  })
  index++;

  for (var i = 0; i < close.length; i++) {
    close[i].onclick = function() {
      var div = this.parentNode.parentNode; // seleciono o avô do span que oculta o item
      div.style.display = "none"; // oculto a div
    }
  }
}

A: *

*O problema de maior, assim como o @DvD já tinha dito é mesmo o fato de faltar um elemento html para englobar cada nova linha que é inserida, pois os campos são inseridos de forma seguida, acabando por não ter nenhum elemento pai que os agrupe. Isso dificulta a ação de esconder.

*O código que tem inicialmente antes da função newElement não é necessário pois tenta adicionar elementos com base na quantidade de
 do documento, mas não ha nenhum.

*Cada vez que adiciona um novo elemento ao html não precisa de um for para atribuir todas as funções de click dos closes, mas sim apenas a do elemento que foi adicionado.

*Tem um problema de closures em:
 for (var i = 0; i < close.length; i++) {
     close[i].onclick = function() {

Porque o i vai acabar por não ter escopo do for e todos os closes irão referir o ultimo i. Considere o seguinte exemplo verificável do problema:

const spans = document.querySelectorAll(".s");

for (var i = 0; i < spans.length; ++i){
  spans[i].onclick = function(){
    console.log("click no span numero " + i);
  }
}
Clique nos números que se seguem:
1
2
3
4
5

Aqui vê claramente que o i não tem escopo do for e acaba sendo o mesmo para todos os elementos. Para além disso fica no valor em que saiu do for que é 5 e so temos spans de 0 a 4.
Neste momento uma das formas mais simples de resolver este problema é declarando o i com let que garante o escopo do for e faz com que o closure funcione como esperado:

const spans = document.querySelectorAll(".s");

for (let i = 0; i < spans.length; ++i){
  spans[i].onclick = function(){
    console.log("click no span numero " + i);
  }
}
Clique nos números que se seguem:
1
2
3
4
5

Acertando esses pormenores o seu código ficaria assim:

var index = 0;
var array = [];

//obter o elemento do html apenas uma vez
const recent = document.getElementById("recent");

function newElement() {
  var li = document.createElement("input");
  var ul = document.createElement("input");
  var done = document.createElement("input");
  done.setAttribute("type", "checkbox");
  var inputText = document.getElementById("myInput").value;
  var inputDate = document.getElementById("time").value;

  done.className = "checkIn";
  li.value = inputText;
  li.className = "valor";
  ul.value = inputDate;
  ul.className = "data";

  var span = document.createElement("SPAN");
  var txt = document.createElement("button");
  var xis = document.createTextNode("\u00D7");
  var newdiv = document.createElement("div");

  span.appendChild(txt);
  txt.appendChild(xis);
  txt.className = "close";

  if (inputText === '') {
    alert("Você precisa digitar algo primeiro!");
  } else {
    //todos os elementos são adicionados ao novo div que os agrupa
    newdiv.appendChild(done).style.width = "20px";
    newdiv.appendChild(li);
    newdiv.appendChild(ul).style.width = "90px";
    newdiv.appendChild(span);
    recent.appendChild(newdiv); //novo div adicionado ao recent
  }

  array.push({
    inputtexto: li,
    inputdata: ul,
    close: txt
  });
  index++;

  //clique do close apenas definido para o elemento adicionado
  txt.onclick = function() {
      this.parentNode.parentNode.style.display="none";
  }
}
<!DOCTYPE html>

  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">

  <form method="POST" action="">
    Título:
    <input type="text" id="myInput" name="titulo">
    Prazo:
    <input type="date" id="time" name="data" />

    Add
  </form>

No entanto, e assim como tinha já dito em comentários, a construção de novo html fica muito mais simplificada com strings. Estas strings guardam toda a estrutura html a adicionar já com atributos e classes, e é aplicada diretamente no innerHTML.
Exemplo com strings e innerHTML:

const inputText = document.getElementById("myInput");
const inputDate = document.getElementById("time");
const recent = document.getElementById("recent");

function newElement() {
  if (inputText.value === '') {
    alert("Você precisa digitar algo primeiro!");
    return;
  }

  let newHtml = `

                   <input type="checkbox" class="checkIn" style="width:20px;">
                   <input type="text" value="${inputText.value}">
                   <input type="text" value="${inputDate.value}" style="width:90px;">
                   <button class="close">\u00D7</button>

`;
   recent.innerHTML += newHtml;

   for (let l of document.querySelectorAll(".linha .close")){
      l.onclick = function() {
        this.parentNode.parentNode.style.display="none";
      }
   }
}
<!DOCTYPE html>

  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
  <title>JS Bin</title>

  <form method="POST" action="">
    Título:
    <input type="text" id="myInput" name="titulo">
    Prazo:
    <input type="date" id="time" name="data" />

    Add
  </form>

Neste ultimo caso como o innerHTML é aplicado diretamente no
 torna-se necessário voltar a aplicar os eventos de close a todas as linhas.

Coastal Comedy offers a great chance to see a famous face close up and personal in an intimate setting, with the very best stand-up comics on the circuit, and are winners of the Gold Night Time Award as part of the prestigious BH Star Awards 2019.
Closing the show is the incredible John Lynn who first caught the stand-up bug after a visit to a comedy club in Dublin and quickly discovered that making a clown out of himself wasn't all that bad. He instantly made a splash in his native Ireland with his laid-back delivery and natural stage presence and within eight months of his first gig, appeared on TV in RTE's The Liffey Laugh; an unheard of feat for a newcomer.
He later appeared in BBC's One Night Stand, continuing to build his reputation as a promising newcomer. Encouraged by these early achievements, John took the plunge and decided to give-up his day job as a secondary school teacher.
He is now based in London and is busy working his way up the stand-up ladder, earning his stripes at all the major comedy clubs across the UK. He misses the children who abused him each and every day of his teaching career…sometimes.

John is supported on the night by Mike Cox, winner of the prestigious Fosters South Coast Comedian of the Year Award. Mike's sharp wit and everyday cynicism have made him one to watch on the comedy circuit in recent years.
Also appearing on the night is Rob Mulholland who fell into comedy after finding a flyer for a local festival on the ground. In the years since, he has performed all over the UK and overseas and won many comedy competitions.

Halfway to being discovered? I know June 17 isn't really halfway to December 17, but I still have a feeling the secret is somehow related to Mega Man's birthday, even though nobody seemed to catch it in '08. I wonder what glories shall be heaped upon the victorious seeker… Probably more fun in my imagination than reality would allow.

Trump's War of Choice with Iran
January 13, 2020 Topic: Security Region: Middle East Blog Brand: Middle East Watch Tags: IranDonald TrumpTroopsNuclearWar
Instead of shrinking America's footprint in the Middle East, Donald Trump has maintained—and in some cases expanded—military commitments in the region.
by Peter Harris Follow @ipeterharris on Twitter L
If the United States goes to war with Iran, then it will be a war of choice—Donald Trump's choice. By ordering the killing of Maj. Gen. Qassim Suleimani, the president ensured that Iran's leaders would retaliate against U.S. interests in some shape or form. Trump could not have anticipated exactly how Iran's leaders would exact their revenge but he knew that a significant military reprisal was possible. And while there are encouraging signs that both sides are now keen to reduce tensions, the risk of Trump pushing America into a devastating war with Iran remains unconscionably high.
When Trump came to office, America's relationship with Iran was fraught. The two countries had existed in a state of unconventional warfare for some time but it was a struggle waged by proxies and in the shadows—rarely with the risk of their regular armed forces coming to blows with one another.
The situation was far from perfect. It certainly did not amount to peace. But there was at least the prospect of an improved relationship. Most obviously, the Iran nuclear deal, which Tehran was in broad compliance with, could have served as the basis for a more ambitious regional detente, especially given that Trump was elected on a platform of initiating a military drawdown in the Middle East. Thus, it was not unthinkable that the United States and Iran could have found ways to "deconflict" in theaters such as Iraq, Syria, and Yemen.
A truly "America First" foreign policy would have adopted a single-minded focus on U.S. security. It would have meant reducing entanglements in the Middle East, seeking diplomatic solutions to the myriad disagreements that exist between the two sides, while still guarding against Iranian predations on a "targeted-balancing" basis, such as by investing in intelligence and cybersecurity. Trump could have used Saudi Arabia's barbaric murder of U.S.-based journalist Jamal Khashoggi and domestic revulsion at Riyadh's war in Yemen to justify a rebalance of forces in the Persian Gulf, with the U.S. pursuing the role of an off-shore balancer rather than an omnipresent security manager.
This is the opposite of what Trump has done. Instead of shrinking America's footprint in the Middle East, Trump has maintained—and in some cases, expanded—military commitments in the region. His administration has set back the cause of diplomacy by pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal and hollowing out the State Department. And Trump has doubled down on the alliance with Iran's regional nemesis Saudi Arabia.
Then came the assassination of Suleimani, a conventional military attack on a high-ranking Iranian official—by some accounts, the second most powerful man in Iran. Thankfully, Iran's leaders chose to respond to Suleimani's death with relative restraint, firing missiles at U.S. positions in Iraq but taking steps to minimize risk to life (in the event, no casualties were recorded). Iran's leaders have now professed their desire for a de-escalation of tensions with the United States, a sentiment echoed in Trump's subsequent speech from the White House.
But Trump could not have known in advance that Iran's reaction to the killing of Soleimani would be bloodless. A more terrible attack was possible and may still come. How would Trump have responded to Iranian forces killing American soldiers or civilians? How would he respond to such a thing if it happened tomorrow, whether by design or miscalculation? How could he respond?
By choosing to escalate the conflict with Iran, Trump has put the United States in a position where war could easily become unavoidable depending upon how Iran and its proxies conduct themselves going forward. This is tantamount to waging a war of choice and cannot go unchecked.
As political scientist Bruce Buchanan has argued, retroactive accountability for wars of choice is rarely effective. What is needed is a robust political intervention during the heat of the moment to cool passions and propose more sober policy options. This is a job that Congress, the media, and the voting public must now undertake in unison.
In Congress, the focus must remain on the administration's decision to kill Suleimani. Why was this incendiary action ordered? Officials point to the fact that Suleimani was the mastermind of countless civilian deaths, plus those of American soldiers. That is true but it is beside the point. Iran's regional network of proxies did not die with Suleimani nor did Tehran's interest in promoting a favorable balance of power in the Middle East. Assassinating the head of the Quds Force will not urge Iran to adopt a more pacific foreign policy any more than the death of a high-ranking U.S. official would convince Americans to retreat into isolationism.
The only possible justification for killing Suleimani is that his assassination was essential to prevent an imminent attack on U.S. forces. This, of course, is one of the primary talking points being advanced by the Trump administration. But it should not be taken at face value. Indeed, scant evidence has been offered in support of the claim.
In this regard, there are some historical parallels with another American war of choice: the Mexican-American War of 1846–1848. Back then, President James Polk precipitated war with Mexico by sending forces into a disputed region along the U.S.-Mexico border. He claimed casus belli when, as expected, Mexico retaliated by killing members of the expedition on soil that Polk portrayed as American territory. The status of the land in question was, in fact, undetermined—a point that Polk eventually conceded, albeit once the war was already in motion.
While it would be wrong to overstretch the similarities between Polk and Trump, the basic dynamic is the same: undertaking a provocative action and committing the nation to war dependent upon the adversary's response. In Polk's case, war ensued. In Trump's case, it has not—yet.
The Mexican-American War was recognized as a war of choice at the time. Former president John Quincy Adams denounced Polk's cynical maneuvering as "outrageous" while future president Abraham Lincoln proposed a succession of so-called spot resolutions to the House of Representatives. The resolutions poked holes in the president's false assertation that the "spot" on which American blood had been shed was really U.S. soil. While hostilities were still ongoing, the Whig majority in the House of Representatives even adopted a resolution to condemn the war as "unnecessarily and unconstitutionally begun by the President of the United States."
Of course, the Whigs never succeeded in stopping Polk's war with Mexico. But the most eloquent among them at least made the critical argument that wars of choice are illegal and must be stopped. Today, Democrats and patriotic Republicans must go further by using every legislative means at their disposal to restrict Trump's freedom of action and encourage the pursuit of diplomacy. Tim Kaine's new War Powers Resolution is a good place to start. It might stand a chance of passing if Mike Lee (R-UT) can persuade his fellow Republicans to endorse the measure.
By definition, wars of choice are not inevitable. They are the products of intentional decisions. The way to avoid wars of choice is thus to wrest the decisionmaking process away from the reckless and place it in the hands of those who are disposed towards peace. No task could be considered more urgent.

This is one of the side projects I've been working on and you can view it at www.extendmac.com/flow (May 2008, note: current flow website is different.) Flow is an upcoming FTP application for Mac OS X (currently in closed private beta.) When Brian of Extendmac Software asked me if I could design the website and icons, I was definitely interested as I admire Flow a lot for its simplicity and beautiful interface but I could only do website design and not app icon as I was spreading too thin with other projects so I got another icon designer, Josh Pyles of Pixelmatrix Design, to join the project. While the icon he delivered was perfectly fine, Brian wanted something truly unique so we got another icon designer, Sebastiaan de With, to do the icon and the result is what you see right now.
I also did some of the app toolbar icons and Sebastiaan did a simply fantastic job on the application icon. You can read about his work progress on the icon at his blog, Cocoia Blog.
This is one of the projects I truly enjoyed doing along with great people like Brian and Sebastiaan.
Wow, this website is incredible!
The design is fantastic. I particularly like the navigational bars at the top blended so well with the flowing graphic as the header. It EXTREMELY communicates the message of the product.
What applications did you use to develop and make this site? I am trying to learn how to use Photoshop and Dreamweaver (CS3) right now, to revamp the website of the company I currently work at (www.practicalcnc.com).
Interesting and well laid-out design. One thing though, unless it's my browser, the fonts render really choppy and it throws off the whole experience for me. Main title seems garbled.
I checked on both Safari & FF (mac) and have similar results in both.
Overall, good design. I just don't feel the typography.
As far as the app, looks promising. Will def. give a try when I can.
The website looks awesome. It's always nice to see something fresh and inspirational. Good job Adam!
I love how the site contrasts with the Flow icon, it really highlights it's beauty. Very unique 3D "liquid" header.
The only gripe I really have is that the typography could use a *little* bit of a tuning. Beautiful nevertheless!
Your own site & the Dogcows site shows your talents as a web designer, but this website is just awful.
The only slight bit of character the page has is the "blanket" of 1s and 0s. Once you start scrolling it becomes a dull white text on grey background website. The kerning on the copy makes it seem amateurish.
Very cool, that "designing the icon" post was especially interesting.
About kerning, it's simply a trade off between standard text align or justify. With justify setting you don't really have much control over text spacing but it's necessary in Flow site or otherwise it'd break the overall smooth feeling.
As much as I like Helvetica Neue (which is the main font for Flow site), it does have its limitation and I learned something new.
Adam, great work on the website. I think it is wonderful. Clean, simple, and a touch of crazy wavy binary blanket thingy… nice!
Serif font in the headlines is horrible. I wouldn't use serif at all, does not match the style. Otherwise, very nice, as usual!

The Nashville Business Journal and the Tennessean each link to what they say is a copy of the complaint that Rep. Mike Turner filed against a construction company for allegedly hiring people unauthorized to work. The document that purports to be Turner's complaint, however has an empty signature block, which is pictured above.
Turner did not sign the complaint he filed.
I wouldn't blame Turner if he didn't sign it. The instructions on the complaint form require details, and none are offered - just hearsay and prior newspaper articles about other jobs. Furthermore, the Spanish-speaking workers whom Turner told the Tennessean he saw are left out of this document.
Is the State even required to process an unsigned complaint?

While life insurance is generally a prohibited investment for retirement accounts, participants in a qualified retirement plan, or QRP, can purchase policies under certain rules. For example, in a profit-sharing plan, contributions become "seasoned" two years after deposit or after five years of participation in the plan, and up to 100% of that money can be used to purchase life insurance. If a participant chooses to buy any type of life policy within a QRP, contributions for premiums are considered tax-deductible just like other contributions to the plan. Ordinarily, life insurance premiums outside of a QRP are considered after-tax dollars and not deductible.
Depending on the selected life insurance type, some tax may be due while it is owned within the qualified account. Any cash value a policy has is considered income to the participant and is taxable along with other earnings. The insurance cost, however, is not taxable. Therefore, term life policies that do not accumulate any cash value have no tax implications while owned within a QRP, while whole life and variable or universal life policies could be taxed.
Upon retirement, the policy must either be cashed out or distributed to the participant. Taxation is determined by which of three options the participant chooses. The policy can be cashed out with proceeds deposited to the account with no taxes due, as the money becomes identical to other money in the account. If the participant chooses to have the policy distributed in-kind, income tax is owed on the entire value of the policy, minus premiums. Finally, the participant can buy out the policy, which is taxable, but this involves a large sum of cash to be paid in full. Also, this transaction can sometimes fall under the prohibited transactions category. Seek proper tax advice prior to making a decision.


Summer's round the corner. You know what that means. Bikini season. Even now, in Spring, shorts are back. More skin is exposed as temperatures soar. Does that make you nervous?
If you're fine with that, good for you. For the rest of us, it is time to take stock of the past season's excesses. That roll of flab. Pasty skin. How would that look in a swim suit? Forget the swimsuit, how would that look in shorts and a tank top?
Let's start with the easy part. Getting your skin soft, silky and touchable. All you need is a scrub and a moisturizer. A simple daily rubdown in the shower with dead sea salts would slough off the dead skin cells beautifully. If your skin is dry, then you could mix dead sea salt with olive oil into the paste after your shower. Rub all over your body and rinse off. It is rather messy but effective.
After every shower slather on some moisturizer all over your body. It would leave your skin soft and touchable. Get into the habit of caring for your skin all over before summer so when the time comes, your skin would be lovely.
Getting your skin radiant is the easy part. The tough part is getting your body sleek enough for that bikini.
You have three possible options.
Leave it. Who cares? It's your body anyway.
Fake it. You might even get through the entire Spring and Summer without anyone knowing.
Get in shape so you'd be able to flaunt what you've got. There's still time if you start now.
If you prefer the first option, then go ahead.
If the second option appeals to you, you could invest in shapewear. You know, control tops stockings, girdles, the works and wear them all under your summer clothes to hide it all under a long skirt. If you arms bother you, then you could wear long billowy sleeves as camouflage. If you have to get into the water, look for a full swimsuit that would hold in your tummy. Or you could hold your breath until you get into the water and hold your breath until you get to the changing room and back into your fat binding arsenal.
You can hide only so much. It would be better if you whip your body in shape. If you start exercising now and eating moderately, you'd make enough progress by summer to be proud of the way you look in your swim suit. Personally, I prefer tae bo as it gives visible results quickly. Plus it is a lot more fun than jogging on the treadmill or doing repitive exercises in the gym. In any case, pick a workout system you find enjoyable and can stick with through summer.
Exercise alone isn't going to help if you eat like a pig. I have a problem with my weight and it stems from my emotional eating. The doctor said I had to lose weight for health reasons and the only way I'd succeed was if I had my mouth sewn shut. I didn't of course, but do try to moderate my food intake. Having a food journal where you record down everything you eat and drink (yes, drinks can contain a lot of calories) then tallying up the number of calories you've consumed can be quite an eye opener. Do that. Then decide what you're going to cut down in order to lose weight.
Now on to the pasty skin issue. Forget about baking yourself in the sun. Exposure to those UV rays would only increase your chances of getting skin cancer. Do what the celebrities do. Spray on your tan, or at least smooth it on with a sunless tanning lotion. Do it after exfoliating your skin as these self tanners work by coloring the dead skin cells on the surface of your skin. If your skin is flaky, the tan would be patchy.
Start now and you'll more than happy to face summer in your bikini.

James Shirley (ou Sherley) (Londres, setembro de 1596 – Londres, 29 de outubro de 1666) foi um dramaturgo inglês.

Pertenceu ao grande período da literatura dramática inglesa, mas, nas palavras de Charles Lamb, "reclama um lugar entre os mais destacados da época, ainda que não por um gênio próprio particularmente trascendente, pois foi o último de uma grande raça, todos os quais falavam praticamente o mesmo idioma e tinham o mesmo grupo de noções e sentimentos morais em comum." Sua carreira de dramaturgo se desenvolveu entre 1625 até a supressão das obras cênicas pelo Parlamento em 1642.

Personifica já a decadência do teatro inglês.

Escreveu cerca de quarenta obras teatrais, entre as que sobressaem: "O traidor" (The Traitor), "O cardeal" (The Cardinal) e "As bodas".

Fairly energetic fiction
Film: Batla House
Cast: John Abraham, Mrunal Thakur, Manish Chaudhary, Rajesh Sharma, Abdul Qadir Amin, Ravi Kishan, Nora Fatehi
Director: Nikhil Advani
Rating: * * *
As the disclaimer portends Nikhil Advani's take on the Batla House encounter is purely fictitious – with a few pertinent facts thrown in to obfuscate memories of what some term as a contentious tragedy. A scrupulous by-the-book ACP. Sanjay Kumar (John Abraham), because of some pre-empting from his own Special cell team (led by Ravi Kishan as Sub. Insp. Kishen Kumar) ends up having to face flak from his superiors, activists and a minority-backlash fearing administration.
But the narrative which starts out in such ambitious fashion ends up vacillating between a righteous position and a politically right leaning one – thus making little sense in the bargain. So even though we get to see the ACP exhibit Post traumatic Stress Disorder symptoms following the shoot-out that killed several students alleged to have been responsible for the 13th Sept serial blasts in Delhi, and an encounter specialist/cop, we find it difficult to buy into his justification on the validity of his call to engage with fire – despite the orders from above being merely to investigate. After taking up a major portion of the runtime with this convoluted point of view, the writer-Director then posits a courtroom drama (spearheaded by Rajesh Sharma as the Defence lawyer) that half-heartedly attempts to invalidate what came before it.
The festering relationship between the ACP and his wife Nandita (Mrunal Thakur), though it takes up a large portion of the runtime, feels rather underdeveloped. Even the TV grab footage involving current opposition leaders appears to have been placed strategically appears suspect. Despite the National Human Rights Commission's clean chit to the ACP, doubts persist regarding the veracity of the claims as presented by him. The same applies to this film too.
But despite the many negatives of this sort of representation this film has enough benefits to offer an audience predisposed solely towards entertainment value. The narrative is gritty and heartfelt even though confused. The script, though inconsistent, manages to lend the central character enough teeth to be sympathised with. And that's as much to do with John Abraham's most significant in-character performance as it has to do with the writing itself. The cinematography aligns itself well with true to life exemplification. Nora Fatehi's presence adds the much derided Bollywood masala feel so the lack of veracity in this depiction sits well. The narrative even manages to garner some tension along the way. That's really why this film is a fairly invigorating experience!

Italian Copyright Authority and Algorand Develop Blockchain Ecosystem for Copyright Management
The Italian Society of Authors and Publishers (SIAE) has teamed up with Algorand to develop a new ecosystem for copyright management, based on Algorand's recently launched blockchain platform.
SIAE had already started to develop the project – with the help of "La Sapienza" University of Rome and consulting company Blockchain Core. SIAE has now decided to focus on the Algorand platform for its by design public nature and its high performance.
Algorand uses a pure Proof-of-Stake (PoS) protocol that guarantees decentralization, scalability and security, making it particularly suitable for handling the swarm of metadata and transactions necessary in copyright management. Both Algorand and SIAE are confident that in the near future, blockchain technology will become the cornerstone of the industry.
This collaboration will make it possible to evolve and strengthen copyright management tools and services, ultimately creating new, more open and accessible products, further improving the efficiency of intermediation activities.
Gaetano Blandini, General Manager of SIAE, explained the goals of the initiative:
"To explore the opportunities offered by technology, to imagine a future of solutions that guarantee greater efficiency and transparency to our members [...] Our collaboration with Algorand is part of a process of synergy and cooperation with major players in the fields of research and innovation, both on a national and on a global scale. Together we continue to write a story that began 137 years ago and that today embraces the future."
Professor Silvio Micali, winner of the Turing Prize and founder of Algorand, also said of the collaboration:
"The collaboration between technology providers and companies projected into the future, such as SIAE, paves the way to great opportunities for progress towards economic models that promote inclusiveness, transparency, and frictionless transactions. I am honored by the fact SIAE selected the blockchain developed by Algorand, making it the backbone of its new initiative. I will be thrilled to witness the creation of these solutions, supported by the performance and features we implemented in Algorand 2.0."

Q: Synchronyzed elements deletion on JTable-linked-model to avoid NullPointerExceptions? I'm quite sure this problem has a simple solution, but I haven't been able to solve it.
Scenario:
1) I have a JTable linked to a model based on a LinkedHashMap with (for example) 10 elements.
2) External events delete the first 2 elements almost at the same time, so:
2.1) The model deletes element #0, and throws an event like "row linked to element #0, it is, row #0, has changed".
2.2) Before the JTable has time to be modified, the second element is deleted on the model and the event launched is the same, because the second element is now the first one.
3) The JTable processes both events "row #0 has been deleted".
I think this is why I am getting a "NULL error" like the following one:

I've been thinking on any kind of synchronized mechanism so the second deletion can't be executed until the first one had been finished and executed the event on the JTable, but I can't figure it out which would be the correct way of doing this.
This is happening on a real time-events-processing app, so forcing the events source to wait in this way doesn't seem to be a good solution, but I can't figure it out a correct way of doing it. Any idea?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
Method on another thread that launches deletions:
public void delete_all_elements() {

cloned_model = mainobject.getCloned_model();

for (Element pos_aux : cloned_model.values()) {
        notify_pos_to_be_deleted(pos_aux);
    }
}

Code executed on the thread wich receives the previous message on a messages-queue:
...
model.rmv(row_index);
TableModelEvent event = new TableModelEvent (this, row_index, total_rows-1, TableModelEvent.ALL_COLUMNS, TableModelEvent.DELETE);
notify_suscriptors(event);
...

Code of notify_suscriptors:
...
((TableModelListener)listeners.get(i)).tableChanged(event);
...

A: You must update your Table Model only on the event dispatch thread. Use EventQueue.invokeLater(), as shown in this related example.
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {

    @Override
    public void run() {
        // remove row
    }
});

Jio and Samsung India have partnered to introduce exclusive offers on the purchase of two Samsung Galaxy devices, the Galaxy J2 (2018) and Galaxy J7 Duo, bundling them with cashbacks and other benefits for Jio users. Since last year, Jio has offered cashbacks on a number of smartphones and this is just the latest in a number of partnerships it has forged with smartphone brands to lure subscribers to its network. The Mukesh Ambani-promoted telco is the fourth biggest operator in India and has over 180 million subscribers across the country.
As part of the scheme, Jio subscribers buying the Samsung Galaxy J2 (2018) can avail instant cashback vouchers up to Rs. 2,750 (55 cashback vouchers worth Rs. 50 each) along with 100GB additional 4Gdata (10 vouchers for 10GB additional data each) benefit. The offer is valid till September 30, 2018, and users will be able to avail the cashbacks and benefits with the Rs. 198 and Rs. 299 prepaid plans.
Similarly, Jio subscribers buying the Samsung Galaxy J7 Duo can avail instant cashback vouchers up to Rs. 2,750 (55 cashback vouchers worth Rs. 50 each), and double data for a maximum of four recharges. Once again, the offer is valid till September 30, 2018. Cashbacks are applicable on for Rs. 198 or Rs. 299 prepaid plans, while double data is valid on prepaid plans of Rs. 198 or above.
To recall, the Samsung Galaxy J2 (2018) was launched in India back in April, and came with pretty much the same launch offers. It appears the partnership has been extended for a longer time – up till September in this case. The Galaxy J2 (2018)'s highlight feature is the preloaded Samsung Mall app that is claimed to use artificial intelligence (AI) to let users shop online by clicking a picture of their desired product. A 'Device Maintenance' feature is also present to optimise the smartphone's performance. Similarly, there is a storage-saving proprietary 'Move to Memory Card' feature that automatically directs content from social media apps to the external memory card.
The Samsung Galaxy J2 Duo was also launched in April, but didn't come with any launch offers – meaning the Reliance Jio cashbacks and data benefits are now a selling point for the smartphone. Highlights of the Galaxy J2 Duo include an App Pair feature, Bixby Home, and a dual rear camera setup.


The "L" should stand for lovely in describing this vintage linen hankie. It is unused, but the original tag was removed for laundering. The tag will be included with the hankie. It measures approximately 13" square with a hand rolled hem. The hand embroidered "L" is 2 ¾" and is surrounded by tiny running stitches and flowers. The corner flowers are bordered by embroidery that resembles cut work. This is a beauty and perfect for a bride on her wedding day.

It was the biggest growth recorded since then United kingdom (4.8% vs. at least 1.6% in the previous quarter), followed byItaly (2.7% vs. 0.2% in the previous quarter). GDP also grew among the other big names in the global economy, but to a lesser degree: in United States of America, as well as in GermanyGrowth rose 1.6% versus 1.5% and -2%, respectively, in the previous quarter. in a France and in Japan GDP grew 0.9% and 0.3%, respectively, after 0% and -0.9% in the previous quarter.

Styx is becoming a bit of a gasbag. Is fame getting to him?
What was this new guy saying before the midterm elections happened? One reason why I continue to listen to Styx is that Styx makes predictions that often pan out, which reinforces the cogency of his reasoning. He definitely has a gasbag-y, blowhard side to his personality; he'll often crow about his own rightness after a prediction comes true, and yeah: it could be that fame is getting to him. That said, he's still my personal Hari Seldon. As long as he's good with his predictions, I'll keep listening to him, but I'll also give the new guy a few more viewings if you think he's worth it. I liked the video you linked to, although I thought the dude went a little too heavy with creative re-naming of people he didn't like.
