Credit Suisse and ING Group have completed the first live securities lending transaction together with fintech innovator HQLA-X. The project commenced in April 2017 and also includes CIBC, Commerzbank, and UBS.
The transaction during the test was settled on R3's blockchain platform Corda, and involved the two banks swapping the legal ownership of baskets of securities worth €25 million ($30.5 million) using HQLA-X Digital Collateral Records (DCRs). During the transaction, the underlying securities remained static in DCR-linked custody accounts held by the banks. The successful test brings HQLA-X's collateral lending application closer to production, and the companies expect it to be live by the end of 2018.
Using this application can make swapping ownership of securities more efficient. The settlement of a securities lending trade typically involves the underlying securities being transferred between accounts in the process. This can take days to settle at times, meaning that the liquidity of those trades is postponed, making the process less efficient. However, HQLA-X's collateral lending application can swap the legal ownership of those securities instantly. This makes the process much faster, as the collateral is available immediately. Additionally, all parties are able to monitor the transaction in real time, increasing transparency.
While the application is promising, traditional transfers aren't likely to become obsolete anytime soon. While it is good news that a successful test of the application has been completed, and further testing is possible with the project's other three members, we are still not at a stage where new blockchain solutions are completely replacing traditional transfers.
This successful test shows that banks are still interested in blockchain technology and its potential use cases, but they are exploring it with caution and by taking their time. Hence, it will likely take much longer for them to fully implement the new solutions in their businesses.

Pokémon GO just lost two crucial components in the game's first big update
Since "Pokémon GO" launched in July, fans of the location-based pocket monster hunting game have been waiting for the first big update that would hopefully fix some of the major issues in the game.
The good news is that a big update did indeed hit this weekend. The bad news is that developer Niantic took the addition-by-subtraction route and straight up removed two major features from the game instead of fixing them:
The footprints system that was supposed to help you figure out how close Pokémon were in the "Nearby" tab.
The battery-saver mode, at least from the iOS version of the game.
Those footprints underneath each Pokémon were supposed to indicate their distance from the player, but they were stuck at the maximum distance for weeks.
The footprints in the "Nearby" tab were, quite frankly, completely useless indicators of distance to nearby Pokémon, even when the system functioned properly. As you may know if you've been playing the game, they hadn't been functioning properly for quite some time before their removal.
The removal of the battery saving option from the iOS version of the game was also a fairly obvious choice. In my experience, it didn't really save battery, and the game would lock up more often than not when using it.
It isn't inherently horrible to remove broken features from "Pokémon GO," but Niantic has failed to properly explain it or offer alternatives. Both of the aforementioned features were supposed to fix real problems with the game; removing them entirely instead of fixing them is a curious choice.
We reached out to Niantic to ask if these feature will be revised and added back to the game and have yet to receive a response.
It also doesn't help that third-party Pokémon tracking services like Pokévision were asked to shut down at the same time as footprints were removed from the game. If Niantic doesn't want players to find Pokémon using unofficial means, then the game should present a working alternative. It doesn't.
Hopefully Niantic offers an explanation for what they did to the game as soon as possible, before the backlash grows even larger.

Die katholische Filialkirche St. Wolfgang in Pipping ist die letzte vollständige erhaltene gotische Dorfkirche Münchens. Die unter Denkmalschutz stehende (Nr. D-1-62-000-5356) Kirche gilt als erlesenes Beispiel für die mittelalterlich dörfliche Sakralarchitektur Oberbayerns.

Lage
St. Wolfgang (Pippinger Straße 49a) befindet sich im Zentrum des alten Dorfkerns Pippings, umgeben vom Friedhof Pipping.

Geschichte

Ausgrabungen aus dem Jahre 1977 belegen einen Vorgängerbau, der im 14. Jahrhundert entstand. Herzog Sigismund entschloss sich zum Neubau der Kirche, die auf dem Pilgerweg auf den Spuren des hl. Wolfgang von Regensburg ins Salzkammergut liegt. Als Baumeister wird Jörg von Halspach vermutet. Nach einer Gedenktafel aus dem Jahre 1848 an der Kirche war am 5. Mai 1478 Grundsteinlegung, am 13. August 1480, dem Sonntag vor Mariä Aufnahme in den Himmel wurde die Kirche geweiht. Diese Angaben sind bisher nicht urkundlich bestätigt. Als Bauzeitraum für Kirche und Ausstattung wird jedoch 1480 bis 1485 vermutet.

Seitdem wurden an der Kirche keine Veränderungen vorgenommen. 1701 wurde die Dorfkirche als point de vue des Schlossparkes Nymphenburg in dessen Gesamtplanung einbezogen. Einen Umbau im Sinne des Barocks hatte diese Entscheidung glücklicherweise nicht zur Folge. Nachdem 1794 ein Blitz in den Turm eingeschlagen war, wurde der Spitzhelm ergänzt.

1924 wurde die neue Stadtpfarrkirche Leiden Christi München-Obermenzing eingeweiht; St. Wolfgang wurde zu diesem Zeitpunkt Filiale von Leiden Christi. Den Zweiten Weltkrieg überstand St. Wolfgang ohne Schaden. In den Jahren 1976 bis 1982 wurde der Innenraum des höfisch anmutenden Gotteshauses renoviert. Im Jahr 2005 wurde die Friesbemalung in der Apsis saniert und die Fenstergewände neu bemalt.

Im Juli 2008 wurden bei einer Begutachtung des Dachstuhls schwere Schäden entdeckt, welche zur Schließung der Kirche wegen Einsturzgefahr führten. Der drohende Einsturz konnte kurzfristig durch eine Abstützung des Deckengewölbes abgewendet werden. Es handelte sich bei den Bauschäden wohl um Spätfolgen des Blitzschlages von 1794.

Bis Oktober 2011 wurden knapp 200.000 Euro an Spenden gesammelt, um die Kirche zu restaurieren. Am 30. Oktober 2011 fand die feierliche Wiedereröffnung statt. Inzwischen wird die Kirche wieder regelmäßig genutzt. Sie vermittelt wieder einen einheitlichen Eindruck, der der Entstehungszeit entspricht.

A: Glad to share the workaround after doing all brainstorm.
As new node was in remote location and faced SST issue.
1. take backup from existing node and restore on new galera cluster node.
  make sure that copy grastate.dat on backup dump location with same existing contain.
2. Once backup completed, make necessary changes in server.cnf file
3. start the mariadb services on new node and monitor the log file.
Thanks.

Q: $scope.$watch isn't firing after load in angular.js I'm using angular.js and am trying to use $watch to fire a function when my variable changes. It fires when the data is initially loaded, but not after. I'm not sure exactly what is going on here?
Code is pasted below:
function gradeChart($scope, $http) {
   $http.get('studentData.json').success(function(data) {
       $scope.students = data;
   });

    $scope.$watch('students',function(change){
       console.log('this fires on load but not after');
    });
}

A: It is not clear what code runs "after" and updates $scope.students.
However, here are the two most common problems related to updating $scope arrays:

*

*If you reassign $scope.students to a new array, the $watch may still be looking at the previous array (reference).  Try using angular.copy() in your "after" code:
angular.copy(data, $scope.students);

*If you are changing one of the elements of the array, you'll need to use either $watchCollection (if it is available in the version of Angular you are using) or check for object equality instead of reference (note 3rd parameter):
$scope.$watch('students',function(change){...}, true);

Is New York a new capital of mobile sports betting?
Jan 23, 2022 January 23, 2022 0Spiel
Yes, mobile sports betting is now available in the Empire State.
On January 8, the United States' largest mobile sports betting market went live, allowing New York gamblers to place their first online wagers. With four operators, New York made US gaming history when it started its online betting market. After receiving approval from the New York State Gaming Commission to accept and process mobile wagers, Caesars Sportsbook, DraftKings, FanDuel, and Rush Street Interactive (RSI) became the Empire State's first four operators to provide online sports betting (NYSGC).
While nine operators have been licenced, only four of them have started in the state so far, while the other five are still working to meet statutory and regulatory standards. Nonetheless, four operators were enough to propel New York to the top of the US sports betting industry on its first weekend, surpassing every other state.
In just 12 hours, according to data specialist GeoComply, the northeastern state rose to the top of the country's mobile sports betting jurisdictions and became a capital of a mobile sports betting. Millions of sports fans were pleased to learn that they could gamble on their favourite teams from the comfort of their own homes. 5.8 million geolocation pings were logged on the first day, making New York's opening the single largest in US history for a mobile sports betting market – no other state comes close. Indeed, it attracted more than twice as many people as the previous record-holder, Pennsylvania.
As a result, many in the gambling industry have hailed this as a watershed moment, including Caesars Digital Co-President Chris Holdren, who said: "Today is a historic day for not only Caesars Sportsbook, but for the entire state of New York." "Through our Caesars Sportsbook app, we're ready to treat sports fans across New York like royalty as we welcome them into the Caesars empire, extend our already established roots, and continue to form relationships that benefit our bettors."
But on what have individuals been placing their bets? DraftKings provided some useful information. The NFL accounted for roughly 46% of its total handle, with the NBA accounting for another 24%. College basketball and football followed following, contributing for about 6% and 5% of total handle, respectively.
The Kansas City Chiefs were the most bet-on club in New York's first weekend of mobile sports betting, followed by the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles. The Buffalo Bills, Indianapolis Colts, and Green Bay Packers, as well as local teams the Jets and Knicks, rounded out the top ten. Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs was voted the most bet-on player, followed by Drew Lock of the Denver Broncos, Travis Kelce, and Javonte Williams. "Growing up in New York and having spent the last 30-plus years in Las Vegas, I am happy that my worlds are finally ready to merge," Johnny Avello, a New York native and DraftKings' Director of Race and Sportsbook Operations, said ahead of Saturday's opening.Millions of New Yorkers will soon learn why we think our DraftKings Sportsbook is the greatest in customer service, real-money gaming, and entertainment."
Almost immediately, the state's four operators began launching enormous promotional campaigns. Customers at Caesars received a $3,000 deposit match, a $300 sign-up bonus, and a free NBA jersey, for example.
While many were ecstatic about the arrival of mobile sports betting in the Empire State, Brandy Richards, Team Leader of the Northeast Problem Gambling Resource Center in New York, advised individuals to be cautious when placing bets. She voiced concern to CBS 6 Albany that the increased accessibility of mobile sports betting vs in-person wagering could lead to higher incidences of compulsive gambling. "I believe that when you enhance accessibility, the risk of difficulties increases as well," Richards said. "We are concerned about folks who may already be dealing with or recovering from gambling addictions."Let's wait and see, what awaits ahead of new capital of mobile sports betting.

Menendez, Booker Rally Against Trump SCOTUS Nominee and Consequences for Women's Reproductive Rights, Health Care
NEWARK, N.J. – U.S. Senators Bob Menendez, a senior member of the Senate Finance Committee that sets national health policy, and Cory Booker, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, today rallied at the Essex County Historic Courthouse with Planned Parenthood to highlight the historic impacts on the rights of women to make their own medical decisions and the rights of Americans to receive quality, affordable health care.
"With President Trump's nomination of Brett Kavanaugh, the stakes have never been higher, the threat to women's health has never been greater, and our commitment to reproductive freedom must be stronger than ever," said Sen. Menendez. "Today I stand with Planned Parenthood to say that reproductive rights are human rights, and that we cannot afford to let this President tip the scales of justice against women, families, patients, voters and consumers for generations to come."
"Judge Kavanaugh's nomination poses a clear threat to so many of the rights New Jerseyans hold dear, including the reproductive rights of women, voting rights, labor rights, and the right to quality, affordable healthcare," said Sen. Booker. "We are at a moral moment in our country, and there's simply too much at stake to stand idly by. We all must resolve to fight back against this nomination and cast our light by standing up and speaking out."

While President Trump was a candidate he repeatedly said that he would only put justices on the Supreme Court that pass his litmus test of overturning Roe v. Wade. As a judge on the D.C. Circuit, Kavanaugh has actively worked to block access to safe, legal abortion.
"I'm proud to know that we have two Senators from New Jersey who are willing to stand up for the right to access safe, legal abortion and birth control, and who will oppose President Trump's Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, and any nominees that do not meet the Personal Liberty Standard," said Roslyn Rogers Collins, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood Metropolitan New Jersey. "Planned Parenthood will always stand up for the right of every person to access the health care they need and deserve."
"At the core of our anti-sexual violence work are critical conversations relating to bodily autonomy and gender equity," said Patricia Teffenhart, Executive Director of New Jersey Coalition Against Sexual Assault. "The New Jersey Coalition Against Sexual Assault works to elevate the voices of the nearly two million sexual assault survivors living in New Jersey – individuals who have had their choice taken from them in a violent act. We stand in opposition to any candidate for the Supreme Court of the United States that could inflict further harm by limiting a woman's right to make important decisions about her healthcare and her body."
In May, the Trump Administration announced plans to implement a domestic gag rule on Title X, the only federal grant program solely dedicated to family planning and related preventive services.
Each year, roughly four million people rely on Title X-funded health centers for basic preventive health care, including cancer screenings, birth control, sexually transmitted infection screenings, pregnancy testing, and well-woman exams. In keeping with longstanding legal, ethical and medical standards of health care, Title X providers can offer patients medically accurate counseling on and referrals for all pregnancy options-including parenting, adoption, and abortion.
Reinstatement of the gag rule, which has never been fully implemented, would be President Trump's latest attempt to fulfill his pledge to "defund Planned Parenthood," whose health centers serve 40% of the patients who go to Title X for contraceptive care. If Planned Parenthood were eliminated as a Title X-funded provider, other Title X-funded health centers would have to expand their contraceptive caseloads by an average of 70%. The move would disproportionately impact communities of color, the uninsured, and low-income individuals, and could reverse progress made in critical areas. Title X has helped women avoid 822,000 unintended pregnancies, which would have resulted in 387,000 unplanned births and 278,000 abortions. Title X also yields critical cost savings to the American healthcare system - every dollar invested in Title X saves more than seven dollars in Medicaid-related costs.

College football Top 25: Who can emerge from teams ranked 11-25?
Nick Bromberg and Sam Cooper
August 17, 2022, 9:02 AM ·13 min read
The college football season is upon us and so is our annual Top 25. This year we're revealing the teams from No. 11 to 25 at once before publishing each of our top 10 in separate posts in the days leading up to Week 1.
Here's a look at the teams we have ranked outside the top 10 and why we think they're among the best in the country entering the 2022 campaign.
2021 record: 5-7 (3-6 Big 12)
National title odds: +4000
Over/under: 8.5 wins
The Longhorns' offseason of optimism took a hit over the weekend with knee injuries to two projected offensive starters. Wyoming transfer WR Isaiah Neyor and OL Junior Angilau both reportedly suffered significant knee injuries in fall camp. Neyor was Wyoming's leading receiver and caught 12 TDs in 2021; he was set to be the complementary receiver to Xavier Worthy.
There's still plenty of reasons to believe Texas will be much better in 2022. Quinn Ewers should be a significant upgrade at QB — he was named the starter Friday — and Bijan Robinson is one of the best running backs in football. Improving a pass rush that's accumulated just 37 sacks over the past 22 games is imperative. If Texas can get after the quarterback it could realistically get back to the Big 12 title game.

2021 record: 10-3 (5-3 SEC)
National title odds: +15000
Kentucky has reached the 10-win mark twice in the past four seasons. The Wildcats had only reached double-digit wins twice previously in program history. Needless to say, Mark Stoops is doing a fantastic job. But how will Kentucky respond to heightened expectations?
A lot of those expectations center on QB Will Levis, who is getting first-round NFL hype. Levis is an exceptional athlete with superb arm strength, but he can struggle with accuracy. How will he fare with do-it-all receiver Wan'Dale Robinson and offensive coordinator Liam Coen now in the NFL?
UK loses a lot on both the offensive and defensive lines, but those units have typically been strengths for the Wildcats. The biggest question is finding consistent pass-catchers for Levis. That could be the difference between a team fighting for a bowl berth and a team getting back to 10 wins.
2021 record: 12-2 (8-0 AAC)
Over/under: 9 wins
Houston won five more games in 2021 than it had in the previous two seasons combined and returns QB Clayton Tune. He threw for over 3,500 yards and 30 TDs with just 10 interceptions in 2021. RBs Alton McCaskill (961 yards) and Ta'Zhawn Henry (524) are also back, along with leading receiver Tank Dell (1,329 yards). The Houston offense could be explosive.
The defense was a big reason for the Cougars' step forward in 2021. Houston gave up just 20 points per game after allowing over 30 per game in each of the last three seasons. Six starters are back on that side of the ball and the Cougars avoid both Cincinnati and UCF in AAC play. Another trip to the conference title game is very possible.
22. Miami
2021 record: 7-5 (5-3 ACC)
Expectations are through the roof with Mario Cristobal now leading his alma mater, but is Miami ready to take the next step?
Beyond Cristobal, the optimism begins with quarterback Tyler Van Dyke, who had an excellent redshirt freshman season and should be the beneficiary of a better rushing attack this year. Cristobal has a track record of coaching strong offensive line play and Jaylan Knighton and Henry Parrish are a nice 1-2 punch at running back. Receiver is a question mark, but veteran tight end Will Mallory should be a reliable option for Van Dyke.
On defense, the secondary is promising but Cristobal had to heavily dip into the transfer portal to try to bolster the defensive line. If that group is up to the task, Miami has the potential to win the Coastal. A Sept. 17 trip to Texas A&M will serve as a major early-season test.
21. Iowa
2021 record: 10-4 (7-2 Big Ten)
Iowa's defense carried the team on its back on the way to a 10-win season in 2021. Will the offense do its part in 2022?
The Hawkeyes were buoyed by turnovers a season ago. Iowa finished +12 on the year and lost three of the four games it had more turnovers than its opponent. The defense returns seven starters, including linebackers Jack Campbell and Seth Benson, but turnover luck isn't always consistent from year to year. Iowa's defense could be just as good in 2022, but simply force fewer turnovers.
That's where offensive improvement comes in. Iowa averaged just 4.7 yards per play a season ago and the run game was awful at just 3.4 yards per carry. A better season from Spencer Petras would go a long way to opening up lanes for Gavin Williams and the run game. Petras completed less than 60% of his passes in 2021 and threw just 10 TDs and nine interceptions.
20. Pittsburgh
2021 record: 11-3 (7-1 ACC)
What can Pitt do for an encore after winning its first ACC title?
With Kenny Pickett to the NFL, Jordan Addison to USC and Mark Whipple now at Nebraska, the offense is going to look pretty different. Pat Narduzzi wasn't a fan of Whipple's pass-happy approach and brought in Frank Cignetti Jr. to implement a more balanced system. And to replace Pickett, Pitt added USC transfer Kedon Slovis. Slovis is a downgrade at QB, but with a really solid group of backs and receivers and last year's line intact, this offense should still be quite proficient, even if it's not as explosive.
Defensively, there's a lot to like. Narduzzi favors a really aggressive style that can result in allowing big plays, but it also causes an abundance of negative plays and turnovers. With the talent returning, this can be one of the better defenses in the ACC. And that unit may have to carry more weight with Pickett and Addison gone from the offense.
19. Arkansas
2021 record: 9-4 (4-4 SEC)
Arkansas looks to build on its 2021 success with seven starters back on offense and a defense bolstered through the transfer portal. QB KJ Jefferson was very good in his first full season as a starter in 2021. He completed two-thirds of his passes for 21 TDs and four interceptions and led the team in rushing with 664 yards. Arkansas needs to find a receiver to replace Treylon Burks, however. He had 66 catches for 1,104 yards and 11 TDs. Oklahoma transfer Jadon Haselwood could be the guy that replaces Burks.
Defensively, Arkansas added DL Landon Jackson from LSU, LB Drew Sanders from Alabama and DB Latavious Brini from Georgia, among others. LB Bumper Pool is back for another season after notching 125 tackles and Jalen Catalon and Myles Slusher will anchor the secondary.

18. Michigan State
In last year's surprising 11-win season, Mel Tucker and the MSU staff hit it big in the transfer portal, particularly with running back Kenneth Walker III. Walker's big-play ability was a huge difference-maker on an otherwise average offense.
MSU will again rely on an array of portal additions on both sides of the ball, including the duo of Jarek Broussard (Colorado) and Jalen Berger (Wisconsin) to replace Walker. Elsewhere on offense, QB Payton Thorne and WR Jayden Reed are back, but the line is a major question mark. MSU was one of the worst at defending the pass in 2021 but transfers like pass rusher Khris Bogle (Florida) and cornerback Ameer Speed (Georgia) could help bolster that unit.
Will the staff hit a home run with its portal scouting again? Or will there be a few misses and, in turn, some regression for a team fighting for position in a loaded Big Ten East?
17. Cincinnati
Cincinnati is tasked with replacing a lot of stars after becoming the first non-Power Five team to make the College Football Playoff. Leading tackler Joel Dublanko is gone in addition to safety Bryan Cook and lockdown corners Sauce Gardner and Coby Bryant. But linebackers Deshawn Pace and Ivan Pace return, and S Ja'Von Hicks anchors the secondary.
Evan Prater and former Eastern Michigan QB Ben Bryant are competing to succeed Desmond Ridder and Ryan Montgomery is in line to start after the departure of RB Jerome Ford. WR Alec Pierce is gone too, but WR Tyler Scott and TE Josh Whyle return. Cincinnati opens with Arkansas in Week 1 but could be favored in 10 or more games.
16. Penn State
2021 record: 7-6 (4-5 Big Ten)
Penn State was ranked No. 4 at one point last season but was never the same after QB Sean Clifford was injured at Iowa. PSU finished 7-6 with five of those losses coming by a single-digit margin.
The lack of a running game was a big issue, leaving a banged-up Clifford a sitting duck behind a leaky offensive line. PSU has more depth on the line in 2022, but offensive line play has been a constant issue during James Franklin's tenure. The addition of five-star freshman RB Nick Singleton could provide a jolt to the running game and the receiving group led by Parker Washington is solid even after the departure of Jahan Dotson to the NFL.
Defensively, PSU is strong in the secondary and has good depth up front but is looking for somebody to emerge as a top-end pass rusher. Linebacker is the biggest question mark. If the Nittany Lions win road games at Purdue and Auburn in Weeks 1 and 3, they could be back in the national picture headed into an Oct. 15 trip to Michigan.
15. BYU
2021 record: 10-3
The Cougars' entire starting defense is back from a season ago. That could mean a step up after BYU allowed 71 more yards and nearly 10 more points per game than it did facing an admittedly easier schedule in 2020. With games against Baylor and Oregon early on the schedule, that defensive experience may be key.
QB Jaren Hall is one of eight starters back on offense after throwing for 20 TDs and completing 64% of his passes. Puka Nacua and Gunner Romney are a great receiving tandem, but the Cougars need to replace the production lost from star RB Tyler Allgeier. He spurred BYU's offense with over 1,600 yards rushing and 23 TDs a year ago. Cal transfer Chris Brooks is in line to take his spot as BYU's top rusher.

Even after a disastrous 1-3 start, Wisconsin nearly won the Big Ten West in 2021. Ultimately, the Badgers were doomed by a lackluster offense. Though Braelon Allen emerged as the program's next star at running back, Graham Mertz and the passing game consistently underwhelmed.
And unless there are some dramatic changes offensively, Wisconsin will count on its defense to lead the way yet again in 2022. Jim Leonhard has proven to be one of the top defensive coordinators in the country, and Bobby Engram is now in place as UW's offensive coordinator. Though he struggled with turnovers, Mertz improved as the season progressed, but he'll need competent targets to emerge on the outside for the Badgers to get back to Indianapolis. Perhaps Engram will bring some more creative elements to the passing game.
13. Baylor
2021 record: 12-2 (7-2 Big 12)
Blake Shapen is set to be Baylor's starting QB after beating out Gerry Bohanon in the spring. Shapen started the Big 12 title game, yet the offense he's running in 2022 will look a lot different than the one he ran at the end of the season. Baylor needs to replace leading rusher Abram Smith and wide receiver Tyquan Thornton, though the offensive line should be very good again.
The defense also needs to replace key cogs like S Jalen Pitre and LB Terrel Bernard. But there's no reason to think that a Dave Aranda defense is going to suddenly be bad. Baylor should have one of the strongest front sevens in the conference. The schedule is sneakily tough, with games vs. BYU, Oklahoma and Texas all on the road.
12. USC
2021 record: 4-8 (3-6 Pac-12)
There's excitement back at USC after the school's monumental hire of Lincoln Riley. Riley, who had a 55-10 record in five seasons at Oklahoma, hit the ground running to revamp the USC roster after the Trojans went just 4-8 in 2021. But will USC be able to live up to the hype in Riley's first season?
The fact that he brought QB Caleb Williams with him from Oklahoma will certainly help. Williams was a five-star recruit who took over as starting quarterback midway through the 2021 season. He looked the part and should be a star right away in the Pac-12. Other transfers like WR Jordan Addison and RB Travis Dye should also make an immediate impact, but there are questions about the offensive line and defense as a whole. The defensive depth chart was also replenished with transfers, but they aren't the caliber of Williams and company on offense. The Trojans should be among the better teams in the Pac-12, but any CFP aspirations feel far-fetched.

The Big 12 favorites enter the first season of the post-Riley era with another new face at quarterback. Former UCF QB Dillon Gabriel is now in Norman and the likely starter after he missed most of 2021 with a shoulder injury. Gabriel was very good in his time with the Knights and has familiarity with offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby's offense from their time together in Orlando.
The defense will also look different with Brent Venables back in Norman. OU got lit up at times by opposing QBs in 2021, though the Sooners allowed fewer than 215 passing yards in each of its two conference losses. Replenishing a front seven that loses Nik Bonitto and Perrion Winfrey is a big task, though a young secondary returns three starters that should be even better in 2022.
Ndamukong Suh set to play in a Super Bowl with his third different team
Eagles defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh is set to join some rare company at Super Bowl LVII. When he steps on the field against the Chiefs, Suh will be playing in his third Super Bowl, with his third different franchise.

There are no safety risks for continued use up to a period of 1 year. However, once the desired effect is achieved after several weeks, the dose can be gradually reduced.
If one or more doses are missed, the patient should continue with the next dose as prescribed; the missed dose(s) should not be taken in addition to the regular dose.
Aurobeverine MR is not recommended for use in children aged under 10 years as the safety and effectiveness has not been established in this group.
Special Population
No posology studies in elderly, renal and/or hepatic impaired patients have been performed. No specific risk for elderly, renal and/or hepatic impaired patients could be identified from available post-marketing data.
Aurobeverine MR should be swallowed with a sufficient amount of water (at least 100 ml water). They should not be chewed because the coating is intended to ensure a controlled release (see section 5.2).
Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1
Patients with rare hereditary problems of fructose intolerance, glucose-galactose malabsorption or sucrose-isomaltese insufficiency should not take this medicine.
No interactions of mebeverine are known.
There are no or limited amounts of data from the use of mebeverine in pregnant women. Animal studies are insufficient with respect to reproductive toxicity (see section 5.3). Mebeverine is not recommended during pregnancy.
It is unknown whether mebeverine or its metabolites are excreted in human milk. The excretion of mebeverine in milk has not been studied in animals. Mebeverine should not be used during breast-feeding.
There are no clinical data on male or female fertility; however, animal studies do not indicate harmful effects of mebeverine (see section 5.3).
No studies on the effects on the ability to drive and use machines have been performed. The pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profile as well as postmarketing experience do not indicate any harmful effect of mebeverine on the ability to drive or to use machines.
The following adverse reactions have been reported spontaneously during postmarketing use. A precise frequency cannot be estimated from available data.
Allergic reactions mainly but not exclusively limited to the skin have been observed.
Immune system disorders: Hypersensitivity (anaphylactic reactions).
Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: Urticaria, angioedema, face oedema, exanthema.
Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the Yellow Card Scheme at: www.mhra.gov.uk/yellowcard.
Theoretically CNS excitability may occur in cases of overdose. In cases where mebeverine was taken in overdose, symptoms were either absent or mild and usually rapidly reversible. Observed symptoms of overdose were of a neurological and cardiovascular nature.
No specific antidote is known and symptomatic treatment is recommended.
Gastric lavage should only be considered in case of multiple intoxication or if discovered within about one hour. Absorption reducing measures are not necessary.
Pharmacotherapeutic group: Synthetic anticholinergics, esters with tertiary amino group, ATC code: A03A A04
Mechanism of action and pharmacodynamics effects
Mebeverine is a musculotropic antispasmodic with a direct action on the smooth muscle of the gastrointestinal tract, relieving spasm without affecting normal gut motility. Since the autonomic nervous system is not involved in this mechanism of action, typical systemic anticholinergic side-effects are absent.
All formulations of mebeverine were generally safe and well tolerated in the recommended dose regimen.
Mebeverine is rapidly and completely absorbed after oral administration of tablets. The modified release formulation permits a twice daily dosing scheme.
No significant accumulation occurs after multiple doses.
Mebeverine hydrochloride is mainly metabolised by esterases, initially splitting the ester bonds into veratric acid and mebeverine alcohol. The main metabolite in plasma is DMAC (Demethylated carboxylic acid). The steady state elimination half-life of DMAC is 5.77h. During multiple dosing (200 mg b.i.d.) the Cmax of DMAC is 804 ng/ml and tmax is about 3 hrs. The relative bioavailability of the modified release capsule appears to be optimal with a mean ratio of 97%.
Mebeverine is not excreted as such, but metabolised completely; the metabolites are excreted nearly completely. Veratric acid is excreted into the urine; mebeverine alcohol is also excreted into the urine, partly as the corresponding carboxylic acid (MAC) and partly as the demethylated carboxylic acid (DMAC).
No pharmacokinetic studies have been performed in children under 10 years old.
Effects in repeat-dose toxicity studies, after oral and parenteral doses, were indicative of central nervous involvement with behavioural excitation, mainly tremor and convulsions. In the dog, the most sensitive species, these effects were seen at oral doses equivalent to 3 times the maximum recommended clinical dose of 400 mg/day based on body surface area (mg/m2) comparisons.
The reproductive toxicity of mebeverine was not sufficiently investigated in animal studies.
There was no indication of teratogenic potential in rats and rabbits. However, embryotoxic effects (reduction in litter size, increased incidence of resorption) were noticed in rats at doses equivalent to twice the maximum daily clinical dose. This effect was not observed in rabbits. No effects on male or female fertility were noted in rats at doses equivalent to the maximum clinical dose.
In conventional in vitro and in vivo genotoxicity tests mebeverine was devoid of genotoxic effects. No carcinogenicity studies have been performed.

Neonatal Health Psychology [NNHP]: theories and practice.
Adamson-Macedo1.pdf
Adamson-Macedo, Elvidina N.
By 1994, Health Psychology had been established as a discipline, and defined by Marie Johnston as the scientific study of the psychological processes and behaviour in health, illness and health care. Health Psychology, so far, has mainly related to the adult population, although increasing attention is now being paid to both pediatric and broadly-based child health psychology. It is noteworthy that attention devoted to pediatric and child health psychology has increased dramatically, but the great majority of published work refers to the child and not to the preterm neonate; yet being preterm means being born early, and sometimes too small, and is a stressful life event. In the field of Medicine, Neonatology has appeared as a sub-discipline, and both investigates and cares for at-risk babies, including risk for developmental disabilities. The time is consequently opportune for psychology to make an effective contribution to both the theory and care of the preterm neonate, viewed as a unique, emergent, coactional and hierarchical human being. The formal framework for this is Neonatal Health Psychology (NNHP), which is defined in the article as 'the scientific study of biopsychosocial and behavioural processes in health, illness, and health care of the preterm (and fullterm) neonate during his/her first 28 days of life, and the relationship of such processes with later outcome.' Early work in this category has shown that NNHP has profound interdisciplinary connotations, not least because of the diverse ways in which information has to be derived from the non-verbal neonates. The pathways and scope of NNHP are identified, and many examples of work with preterm neonates are summarised in the article. In making the case for the professional formalization of NNHP, descriptions are given of Neonatal Assessments and very-early interventions; the interdisciplinary character of much of the early work is shown to have been essential. Indication of theoretical frameworks for NNHP is given.

SDL Trados Translation Memory FAQ's
When would I use a translation memory?
Translation memories should be used by anyone who localizes content from one language into another. When a translator's jobs regularly contain the same kinds of phrases and sentences, a translation memory will drastically increase the speed of translation.
Translation memories are also very helpful when translating content out of context. An increasing number of organizations rely on Content Management Systems (CMS) to manage their information. A CMS allows individual blocks of text, rather than entire documents, to be created/edited and then published in a variety of different formats. A translation memory helps to make this process quicker and more consistent.
How does a translation memory differ from a termbase?
A translation memory stores segments of text as translation units. A segment can consist of a sentence or paragraph. The TM holds both the original and translated version of each segment for reuse.
A termbase, on the other hand, is a searchable database that contains a list of multilingual terms and rules regarding their usage.
A translation memory is typically used in conjunction with a termbase within SDL Trados Studio.
How does translation memory software differ from machine translation?
Machine translation refers to automated translation by a computer, without human input.
Translation memory software requires human input as it reuses content that has been previously translated to complete new translation work. The original translation is performed by a professional translator.
Machine translation may be used in conjunction with a translation memory to improve the speed of translation. For example, when a translation memory does not have enough information to complete a segment of text, SDL Language Cloud Machine Translation can be used to automatically complete the segment. The translator may then edit the machine translation and save the completed segment to the translation memory so it may be reused later.
Can SDL translation memories work with many different file formats?
Yes. SDL translation memories are used within SDL Trados Studio, which is compatible with a wide range of file formats. These include Microsoft Office, OpenOffice, RTF, Tab Delimited, HTML and XML.
We also support complex formats like Adobe FrameMaker, Adobe InDesign/InDesign Markup Language (IDML) and InCopy Markup Language (ICML), PDF, XLIFF, and XML flavours such as DITA, Docbook and W3C ITS.
Does SDL Trados Studio come pre-packed with translation memories?
Translation memories are created from the completed translations of a translator, and are not pre-packaged with SDL Trados Studio. By translating within Studio or analysing previously translated content, a translation is built using your own work.
How do I make a translation memory using my previous translations?
SDL Trados Studio includes an Alignment feature which enables the creation of a translation memory by comparing original and translated documents you have completed in the past. This is a simple process and allows you to leverage all of your past work, even if you have never used Studio to translate before.
How a translation memories saved?
Translation memories are not kept within SDL Trados Studio – they are stored as the SDLTM file format. They may be stored locally or across a network.

A longphort (Ir. plur. longphuirt) is a term used in Ireland for a Viking ship enclosure or shore fortress. Although these longphorts were used as bases for Viking raids, the term had additional meanings and these sites had multiple purposes. The reason it cannot be assumed that longphorts were solely for military purposes as that would assume that there were always large numbers of Vikings at these settlements, which is not true. These camps were fortified areas along rivers, usually at a tributary where both sides were protected such that the Vikings could port ships. The sites were easily defended, sheltered, and gave immediate access to the sea. These camps would be of great importance to the Vikings during their raids of Ireland, which included attacks on many churches and monasteries located on the coast. It can be assumed that the purpose of these sites was to ease travel and trade within the region. Longphorts were essential to the economic prosperity of the Vikings. For example, it is clear that the earliest settlements became major trading centers throughout Ireland. Archeological evidence shows that imports and exports included textiles, animal skins, amber, and glass from England. During this time, the Vikings were able to begin a period of extremely profitable trade. Overall, the longphort settlements were essential in establishing the presence of the Vikings in Ireland during the ninth and tenth centuries.

Origins
The word was first used in the 840s in the Irish account of The Annals of Ulster and in the Frankish account in the Annals of St. Bertin with the establishment of Viking encampments at Linn Duachaill and Dublin. It also describes new Viking settlements established at Waterford in 914 and Limerick in 922 possibly by the Uí Ímair. Many camps along river banks and lakes did not last long, however, some only as little as one or two seasons, but others such as Dublin developed into large urban centers, as did the other significant Norse settlements at Cork, Waterford, Woodstown (in Waterford), Wexford and Limerick which remain the largest urban centers in Ireland today.

Terminology
The term longphort, or longphuit in Irish as seen in the annals, literally translates to "ship camp". This compound word was likely coined by Irish monks from the Latin word "longus" (long) reflecting the Old Norse "lang" (long), thus implying "langskip" (long ship); plus the Latin "portus", meaning port, harbour. There are several towns and townlands in Ireland whose names bear some element of Longphort in them. This may suggest that at some point in history there may have been a longphort situated there, as is attested in some examples.

The town and county of Longford are anglicisations of the Irish equivalent "longfort", referring to a fortress or fortified house.

Q: Covering space of a manifold is or is not second countable? I was motivated by this question: Is a covering space of a manifold second countable?
I still think that a covering space of a manifold is not necessarily second countable. I define base $\mathcal B$ of $\mathbb R^2$ as:
$$\mathcal B := \{U \times y \mid \text{$U$ is open in $\mathbb R$ (Euclidean), $y \in \mathbb R$}\}.$$
$\mathcal B$ satisfies both axioms of a base. Let $\tau$ be a topology formed by $\mathcal B$.
A few observations that I made:

*

*Every singleton is a closed set.

*Any non-horizontal line segment is a closed set (regardless of endpoint included in the line segment or not).

Now, consider a projection $p: \mathbb R^2 \rightarrow \mathbb R^1$. $p$ is a covering map since every $U \subset \mathbb R^1$ is evenly covered by $U \times y$ for every $y \in \mathbb R$, and $(U \times y) \cap (U \times y') = \varnothing$ if $y \neq y'$. Clearly, $\mathbb R^2$ with our new topology is not second countable. Am I missing anything?

Now, imagine that you decide to buy the stocks of those five companies with your $1,000. To do this, you will incur $50 in trading costs—assuming the fee is $10—which is equivalent to 5% of your $1,000. If you were to fully invest the $1,000, your account would be reduced to $950 after trading costs. This represents a 5% loss before your investments even have a chance to earn.
When should you buy and sell stocks for beginners?
E*TRADE does require an investment minimum for new brokerage accounts ($500), which may seem like more than a novice would like to throw in. But you'll need at least that much to see real growth, and compared to the minimums of traditional brokerages, $500 is an incredibly welcoming threshold. Additionally, if you can commit to a $10,000 deposit, you can get 60 days of commission-free trades.
With cutting-edge research tools and mobile apps, online stock trading is perfect for investors who want to strike out on their own with "self-directed trading" instead of paying fees for a managed portfolio. Whether you're a first-time investor or an expert trader, you need a trading platform that's user-friendly, trustworthy, and packed with data visualizations. To find the best online stock trading sites of 2019, we analyzed 25 of the most popular platforms and tapped into the expertise of a former day trader, a stock analyst, and a financial commentator with more than two decades of trading experience. In short, there is no single best online stock broker, but each of our top picks has its own strengths for different types of investors. We'll help you determine the best fit for your investment goals and experience.
News sites such as CNBC and MarketWatch serve as a great resource for beginners. For in depth coverage, look no further than the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg. By casually checking in on the stock market each day and reading headline stories, you will expose yourself to economic trends, third-party analysis, and general investing lingo. Pulling stock quotes on Yahoo Finance to view a stock chart, view news headlines, and check fundamental data can also serve as another quality source of exposure.
Sun Hung Kai Properties managed to sell seven units out of 145 flats on offer at its Park Yoho Napoli project in Kam Tin, a mere 3 kilometres from Yuen Long, where police fired tear gas to disperse an estimated 100,000 protestors marching through the suburb Great Eagle sold 170 of 238 of its Ontolo apartments in Pak Shek Kok, reported sales agents, who expect the project to sell out by the day's end
TV is another way to expose yourself to the stock market. No question, CNBC is the most popular channel. Even turning on CNBC for 15 minutes a day will broaden your knowledge base. Don't let the lingo or the style of news intimidate you, just simply watch and allow the commentators, interviews, and discussions to soak in. Beware though, over time you may find that a lot of the investing shows on TV are more of a distraction and source of excitement than being actually useful. Recommendations rarely yield profitable trades.
We found Robinhood's trading interface — both via its mobile app and its website — the most user-friendly of all candidates, making it a perfect option for the first-time trader. The design is minimalist, interactive, and easy to navigate. "Robinhood is a good fit for new investors because it offers a slick, modern app that allows you to trade efficiently," says James Royal, a stock analyst and investing and wealth management reporter at Bankrate. "And of course, it's free, allowing you to invest money that would have otherwise gone into a broker's pocket."
One drawback of Robinhood's simplicity is that as of 2019, you can only trade stocks, ETFs, and options on the platform — not bonds, mutual funds, or futures, and you can't short-sell. But Robinhood is our "Best for Beginners" pick, and most first-time investors will probably want to stick to the basics. If you're interested in bonds and mutual funds, Ally Invest has the best rates of our top picks. If you want to try futures trading, E*TRADE and Charles Schwab are your best bets.
Take for example the S&P 500 market index, which is comprised of 505 companies. Buying shares in 505 different companies would be very difficult to do. Thanks to mutual funds and ETFs, we can simply buy one single security that holds shares in all 505 companies. The largest S&P 500 mutual fund is the Vanguard 500 Index Fund Admiral Shares (VFIAX) and the largest S&P 500 ETF is the State Street Global Advisors SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY).
You'll have to do your homework to find the minimum deposit requirements and then compare the commissions to other brokers. Chances are you won't be able to cost-effectively buy individual stocks and still be diversified with a small amount of money. Given these restrictions, it's probably worth starting out on your investment journey with mutual funds. However, like all aspects of investing, it's up to you to do the research and figure out the strategy that suits you best.
History has shown that investing in stocks is one of the easiest and most profitable ways to build wealth over the long-term. With a handful of notable exceptions, almost every member of the Forbes 400 list of the wealthiest people got there because they own a large block of shares in a public or private corporation. Although your beginning may be humble, this guide to investing in stocks will explain what stocks are, how you can make money from them, and much more.
Unlike most online stock trading platforms, Robinhood doesn't charge a commission fee every time you buy or sell stocks, ETFs, or options. If you're a high-volume trader, or a beginner without much cash to spare, that makes Robinhood an attractive alternative to the $5 to $7 fees per trade offered by competitors. However, Robinhood does rake in "payment for order flow" by rounding regulatory fees up to the nearest penny and pocketing the difference. "That means if you buy a stock for $100.00, Robinhood earns 2.6 cents from the market maker," says co-founder and co-CEO Vlad Tenev, whereas "other brokerages earn rebates and charge you a per-trade commission fee."
NerdWallet's ratings for brokers and robo-advisors are weighted averages of several categories, including investment selection, customer support, account fees, account minimum, trading costs and more. Our survey of brokers and robo-advisors includes the largest U.S. providers by assets under management, plus notable and/or emerging players in the industry. Factors we consider, depending on the category, include advisory fees, branch access, user-facing technology, customer service and mobile features. The stars represent ratings from poor (one star) to excellent (five stars). Ratings are rounded to the nearest half-star.
We evaluated brokerage firms and investment companies on the services that matter most to different types of investors. For example, for active traders, we note online brokers offering volume discounts on trade commissions and robust mobile trading platforms. For people venturing into investing for the first time, we call out the best online brokers for educational support (such as stock-picking tutorials) and on-call chat or phone support.
In terms of diversification, the greatest amount of difficulty in doing this will come from investments in stocks. As mentioned earlier, the costs of investing in a large number of stocks could be detrimental to the portfolio. With a $1,000 deposit, it is nearly impossible to have a well-diversified portfolio, so be aware that you may need to invest in one or two companies (at the most) to begin with. This will increase your risk.
Our experts suggest you begin by looking at your own life. "Buy what you know, where you are. If you can, identify good companies locally," says Randy Cameron, a portfolio manager and investment advisor with 35 years of experience. "Look for companies you and your friends are talking about, ones with plans to go national." As for how much time and money you need, "start with what you have," he says.
