About Scottish Spirits
Scotland produces a variety of spirits including several notable gins and vodkas, but the focus of the Scottish distilling industry and spirits connoisseurs around the world is obviously Scotch Whisky.
Scotch whisky is, in its most basic sense, a spirit that is distilled from grain. Sometimes the grain has been malted, sometimes not. It is aged, often for long periods of time, in wooden barrels (usually oak). This barrel-aging smoothes the rough palate of the raw spirit and adds aromatic and flavoring nuances along and the base amber hue, all of which set whiskies apart from white grain spirits such as Vodka, Gin and Aquavit, which are distilled closer to neutrality in taste, and then generally not aged in wood.
The basis of Scotch whisky is the heather-flavored ales made from barley malt that the Picts and their prehistoric ancestors brewed. Archeologists have found evidence of such brewing dating back to at least 2000 B.C. This ale (which is still produced today by at least one Scottish microbrewer) was low in alcohol and not very stable.
Starting in the ninth century, Irish monks arrived in Scotland to Christianize their Celtic brethren. Along with the Word of the Lord they brought the first primitive stills, which they had picked up during their proselytizing visits to mainland Europe during the Dark Ages. The local Picts soon found that they could create a stable alcoholic beverage by distilling their heather ale. Simple stills came to be found in most rural homesteads, and homemade whisky became an integral part of Gaelic culture.
A Note on Spelling.
For reasons that have yet to be adequately explained, American and Irish distillers tend to spell the word whiskey with an "e" while their Scotch, Canadian, Japanese and New Zealand peers spell whisky without it.
As long as Scottish kings ruled the country from Edinburgh the status quo of whisky as just another farm product was more or less maintained. But the Act of Union in 1707 that combined England, Wales, and Scotland into the United Kingdom altered the Scotch whisky scene forever. The London government soon levied excise taxes on Scottish-made whisky (while at the same time cutting the taxes on English gin). The result was a predictable boom in illicit distilling. In 1790s Edinburgh it was estimated that over 400 illegal stills competed with just eight licensed distilleries. A number of present-day Scottish distilleries, particularly in the Highlands, have their origins in such illicit operations.
The Excise Act of 1823 reduced taxes on Scotch whisky to a tolerable degree. This act coincided with the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, and entrepreneurs were soon building new, state-of-the-art distilleries. The local moonshiners (called smugglers) did not go quietly. Some of the first licensed distillers in rural locations were threatened by their illicit peers, but in the end production efficiencies and the rule of law won out. The whisky that came from these distilleries was made primarily from malted barley that had been kiln-dried over peat fires. The smoke from these peat fires gave the malt a distinctive tang that made the Scottish product instantly identifiable by whisky drinkers all over the world.
The 19th century brought a rush of changes to the Scotch whisky industry. The introduction of column stills early in the 1830s led to the creation of grain whisky, a bland spirit made primarily from unmalted grains such as corn. Grain whisky in turn led to the creation of blended Scotch whisky in the late 1860s. The smooth blandness of the grain whisky toned down the assertive smoky character of the malt whiskies.
The resulting blended whisky proved to be milder and more acceptable to foreign consumers, particularly the English, who turned to Scotch whisky in the 1870s when a phylloxera infestation in the vineyards of Europe disrupted supplies of Cognac and Port—two of the mainstays of civilized living. Malt whisky distilleries were bought up by blending companies and their output was blended with grain whiskies to create the great blended brands that have come to dominate the market. The malt whisky distilleries took a back seat to these brands and sold most or, in some cases, all of their production to the blenders. But the recent popular revival of malt whiskies has led most of the distilleries to come out with bottlings of their own products.
By the 1970s international liquor companies owned most of the malt whisky distilleries, a situation that continues to this day. Today, all Scotch malt whiskies are double or triple distilled in pot stills, whereas Scotch grain whiskies are made in column stills. Single Malt Scotch Whisky is malt whisky that has been produced at one distillery. It may be a mix of malt whiskies from different years (in which case the age statement on the bottle label gives the age of the youngest spirit in the mix). The barley malt for Scotch whisky is first dried over fires that have been stoked with dried peat (a form of compacted grass and heather compost that is harvested from the moors). The peat smoke adds a distinctive smoky tang to the taste of the malt whisky. Vatted Malt Scotch Whisky, now officially (and confusingly) known as Blended Malt Scotch Whisky, is a blend of malt whiskies from different Scottish distilleries. Scotch Grain Whisky (which is rarely bottled as such) is made primarily from wheat or corn with a small percentage of barley and barley malt (the latter not being dried over peat fires). Blended Scotch Whisky is a blend of grain whisky and malt whisky.
Why Blended Scotch Whisky Is A Good Thing, Even If You Prefer Single Malts
It is a truism of religion that converts frequently become the most zealous of believers. Among freshly minted modern-day enthusiasts of Scotch malt whiskies, it is a frequently heard refrain that malt whiskies are superior to the blended article, and that the latter are just not worth bothering with. Personal taste is ultimately subjective of course, but single-malt drinkers should raise their hats in salute whenever a Dewars or Johnnie Walker delivery truck drives by, because without these blended brands most of the remaining malt distilleries would not exist. Blended Scotch whiskies require a mix of dozens of different malt whiskies to be combined with grain whisky in order to create the desired blend. The individual percentages of each malt whisky may be small, but each contributes its unique character to the blend. A blender will thus need to buy or produce a large amount of different malt whiskies in order to maintain the consistency of the blend. Thus, for a malt whisky distillery, the single malt may get all of the glory, but the blends ultimately pay the bills.
Independent Merchant Bottlings
Before the present-day revival in popularity of single malt Scotch whiskies, a number of the 100 or so malt whisky distilleries did not bother to bottle their own product. Almost all of their production would be sold to blenders, directly or through brokers. The one exception to this rule was the relative handful of casks from each season's production that would be sold to independent retail merchants or bottlers who would mature the whisky on their own, then at an age of their own choosing, bottle and sell them to the public. This commercial tradition was more prevalent before the rise of supermarket and discount liquor chains, but a handful of independent bottlers remain in Scotland. The best known of these are Cadenhead, Gordon & McPhail, and The Malt Whiskey Society. These merchant bottlings can offer interesting variations on official distillery bottlings, but that variance is not always a good thing. Caveat emptor.
Ghost Whiskies
The modern history of Scotch whisky has been a series of boom-and-bust cycles. In the late 1800s a large number of new distilleries were established, but at the turn of the century came a crash when financial hijinks among wholesale whisky merchants were brought to light. The industry revived, only to be disrupted by the advent of World War I and a prohibitionist mood in the government (it was at this same time that Britains famously odd hours of operation for pubs were established). National Prohibition in the United States disrupted sales to a major export market, but, oddly enough, far more whisky was shipped to Canada, the Bahamas and Mexico than had hitherto been the case (perhaps for transshipment to the United States?). World War II resulted in many distilleries turning to industrial alcohol production, but in the postwar years whisky production was boosted by substantial exports to the United States. All of these ups and downs have led to the phenomenon of distilleries being mothballed, reopened and mothballed again depending on the demands of the marketplace. In such cases, and also when plants are permanently closed down, their brands of single malt whiskies continue to live on in the marketplace for decades as the previously distilled whisky slowly finishes its aging time and is bottled. These "ghost" or "fossil" whiskies keep alive the proud names of distilleries that were torn down long ago and replaced by parking lots and housing developments.
Scotch Whisky Regions
The Highlands consist of the portion of Scotland north of a line from Dundee on the North Sea coast in the east to Greenock on the Irish Sea in the west, including all of the islands off the mainland except for Islay. Highland malt whiskies cover a broad spectrum of styles. They are generally aromatic, smooth and medium bodied, with palates that range from lushly complex to floral delicacy. The subregions of the Highlands include Speyside; the North, East and West Highlands; the Orkney Isles; and the Western Islands (Arran, Jura, Mull, and Skye).
The Lowlands encompass the entire Scottish mainland south of the Highlands except the Kintyre Peninsula where Campbeltown is located. Lowland malt whiskies are light bodied, relatively sweet, and delicate.
Islay is an island off the west coast. Traditional Islay malt whiskies are intensely smoky and pungent in character with a distinctive iodine or medicinal tang that is said to come from sea salt permeating the local peat that is used to dry the barley malt.
Campbeltown is a port located on the tip of the Kintyre Peninsula on the southwest coast that has its own distinctive spicy and salt-tinged malt whiskies.

Q: Edit a CSV Record How do I edit a record in a CSV file?
for example I have a .csv file named "test.csv" and inside it is:

"123","Active"
"456","Not-Active"
"999000123","Active"

How can I edit "456" and change it from Not-Active to Active
The only way I can think of it is to:

*

*Open the .csv file. Maybe store the data inside a string?

*Search for "456",".

*Get the line position of "456",". How to do this?

*Delete the line that we just got the position of. How to do this?

*Recreate the line with what we want. How to do this?

*Insert the recreated data in the line position. How to do this?

*Save the .csv file.

But is there not a easier way to do this?
And if not how do I do steps # 4, 5, and 6?
Maybe to convert it onto an Array or something? But I have no idea how to do this in Classic ASP.

A: A simplyfied version of the script @abr mentioned:
Dim goFS  : Set goFS  = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Dim tsIn  : Set tsIn  = goFS.OpenTextFile("..\data\46734115.csv")
Dim tsOut : Set tsOut = goFS.CreateTextFile("..\data\46734115-2.csv")
Dim sLine
Do Until tsIn.AtEndOfStream
    sLine = tsIn.ReadLine()
    WScript.Echo "<", sLine
    If "456," = Left(sLine, 4) Then
       sLine = "789,""something else"""
    End If
    WScript.Echo ">", sLine
    tsOut.WriteLine sLine
    WScript.Echo
Loop
tsOut.Close
tsIn.Close

output:
type ..\data\46734115.csv
123,"Active"
456,"Not-Active"
999000123,"Active"

cscript 46734115-3.vbs
< 123,"Active"
> 123,"Active"

< 456,"Not-Active"
> 789,"something else"

< 999000123,"Active"
> 999000123,"Active"

type ..\data\46734115-2.csv
123,"Active"
789,"something else"
999000123,"Active"

A: Based on Ekkehards answer, here is the ASP version. The .csv file needs to be located in the same directory as the .asp script. Feel free to award the points to Ekkehard
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT"%>
<% option explicit %>

<%
Dim goFS  : Set goFS  = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Dim tsIn  : Set tsIn  = goFS.OpenTextFile(Server.MapPath( "46734115.csv"))
Dim tsOut : Set tsOut = goFS.CreateTextFile(Server.MapPath("46734115-2.csv"))
Dim sLine
Do Until tsIn.AtEndOfStream
    sLine = tsIn.ReadLine()
    dim pos : pos = instr( sLine, """456"",")
    Response.Write(pos)
    if pos > 0 then
      ' to keep things simple, just replace the whole line
      sLine = """456"",""Active"""
    end if
    tsOut.WriteLine sLine
    ' Just so there is something to see: print line to the browser window
    Response.Write( sLine & "<br />")
Loop

A study from the U.K. university looking into optimal tax levels for red and processed meats in almost 150 countries and regions found that in high-income countries, red meat prices would need to be increased by more than 20%, while processed meats would need to more than double in price.
Those levels would rake in an estimated $172 billion per year globally and cover 70% of the healthcare costs associated with consuming red and processed meats. The tax would need to be doubled in order to cover the full costs.
Meat consumption has been linked to kidney cancer, and has been shown to worsen the prognosis for people with colon cancer. Processed meat, in particular, has been linked to a significantly increased risk of pancreatic cancer, as well as breast cancer.
The authors of the study estimate that in 2020, the consumption of red and processed meat will result in 2.4 million global deaths and a healthcare bill of $285 billion.
In addition to off-setting healthcare costs, the authors said their proposed tax could lead to a 16% decline in the global consumption of meat. This, they say, could be a big boon to the environment, as it would reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by over 100 million tons.
"I hope that governments will consider introducing a healthy levy on red and processed meat as part of a range of measure to make healthy and sustainable decision-making easier for consumers.
Springmann and his colleagues compared the proposed tax to those already levied on other health-damaging products such as tobacco, alcohol, and sugar. However, with different laws in different jurisdictions, it could be challenging to implement a global meat tax.
He cited decreased productivity and care for family members who suffer from chronic disease.
Tax the CAFO meat (and not just the red meat, the poultry and eggs too!) Encourage the small independent farmer whose animals are correctly raised on properly-managed grass (which, of course, we can't eat, but which grazing animals can transform into eminently nutritious meat and milk). It's the unhealthily-raised CAFO animals which produce unhealthy meat that causes health problems!
Educate people about the inhumane living conditions for the animals in CAFO (including graphic images) and the unhealthy products of CAFO, and absolutely encourage small independent farmers. We need to do that ourselves as consumers because governments and the corporate banking entities behind them are driving food production the wrong way in their bid to centralize everything. Food shouldn't be taxed, imho.
This seems to me to be the same propaganda "brainstorm" that is behind part of the riots in France – increasing taxes, they say to discourage people from driving and burning fossil fuels, in this case to discourage people from eating meat products. The list of things we do that kill us slowly is far from only about flesh foods. But universities become a breeding ground for academic "solutions" to trivial "believed" problems devised by models with datasets that can often have no basis on reality and the money that such a tax would mostly go into the hands of the rich anyway, just like the carbon tax would just like the stamp tax and the war taxes and many others. Meanwhile in many of the biggest countries, with the US leading the fray – they spend billions on so called "defense" and ship weapons to anyone who can pay for them killing and displacing millions of people and then complaining about refugees that develop. In terms of health each of us has the tools to maximize our health using food, though because of agribusiness and big phama and the push to vaccinate people to death and consume radioactive particles, heavy metals and chemical pollutants, people will be dying sooner and sooner or have a quality of life that is reliant on drugs and surgery and then live out their years with dementia related diseases as "vegetables" in very expensive homes – as they lose their minds. The non-religious non-"spiritual" non-human, non-space alien creators of all this are letting it take it's course for a while longer before escalating the recycling of the entire civilization to perhaps start a new one. Meanwhile even those who think they are not religious who believe themselves intelligent, filled up with tail feather degrees are turning their forms and interpretations of "science" into a new distorted religion and often hardly can discern the differences.
"Tail feather degrees" …*priceless(lol)…. 'Settled Science' regurgitators, reading from the same pyramid cap issued NGO song sheets …absolutely.
If they had to, just tax cooked red meat. There are no problems with raw meat.
The globalists decided a long time ago the serfs will eventually not be allowed meat, period.
Not even grass fed humanely raised with high levels of omega 3. Everything must be industrialized and patented. That's why there are so many Establishment minions throwing a fit over the success and explosive popularity of the ketogenic diet able to reverse many chronic conditions. Same with the paleo and carnivore diets.

These songs are short and very kooky. All are in English (though some are much easier to understand than others). Some tracks are pretty straight-laced and just sound like a very distorted and foreign imitation of The Smiths, while others are absolutely crazy and involve many high/cramped voices (think munchkins). Also a lot of robot-esque voices and fun/bizarre synth stuff. Actually a lot of these tracks sound like The Magnetic Fields too, now that I think of it. No FCCs. Recommended tracks: 6, 7, 11, 18, 19, 22.

9.	So synthy. Aaaand sung by a munchkin. This song is nuts. [1:36]
10.	More echoy harpies, but harmonized, and with a pseudo organ in the background. [1:02]
11.	Bouncing, atonal, and crazy rendition of I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm. [1:59]
12.	Bizarre Christmas tune, with bells and vaguely Irish sounding singer. [1:28]

14.	Pleasant and somehow Scottish (?) sounding tune, with whistling. [0:51]
15.	Haunting, Halloweeny track, appropriately called "Spooky Song" [1:11]
16.	Call and response between a man and a bunch of munchkins. Swirly synth in the background and absurd lyrics. My favorite is when they all sing together. [1:22]
17.	Hilarious song about what sounds like "tree blind mice." Very accented main singer, with high-pitched chorus which joins for every other line. Background sounds like the soundtrack to an Atari game. [1:47]
18.	Kodagain does The Smiths, with a T.S. Eliot poem as lyrics. Win. [2:01]
19.	Robotic vampire elves sing, or rather chant, Dean Martin's "Three Wishes." [1:19]
20.	You've never heard "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" sung like this… it sounds like it's from The Twilight Zone. [1:41]
21.	A bit of a strain on the ears, but if you're into crazy harmonies and screaming synths, with sappy 80s vocalists, you'll love it. [0:38]
22.	Cyborgs imitating Morrissey, while singing a very nontraditional version of White Christmas, with buzzing robo-insects as accompaniment. [1:12]
23.	Back to the high pitched creatures, with a rather upbeat track that sounds like The Magnetic Fields.
24.	Lewis Carroll poem as lyrics, pretty straightforward vocals/instrumentation compared to the rest of the album. [1:26]

I am always amazed at how many attorneys let their clients loose with a new investment company without spending the time to go over how to actually use the business. There is a learning curve associated with properly running a business. I know that you are devoting your time to your investing. Don't worry, the process actually is quite simple but it does take some practice. The time and expense you put into creating your investment company could be utterly wasted if you fail to follow the formalities of running the business. The formalities associated with maintaining your company are going to vary greatly depending on whether you have created a corporation, limited partnership or limited liability company. I will address those distinctions at a later date, but for now let us focus on the biggest traps you as an investor may find yourself in when you are running your investment company. In a nutshell: unless you have a sole proprietorship, the investment company is not you and it must be treated as a separate and distinct entity.
We all have a little vanity in us. Often times it seems like a good idea to name the investment company after yourself to gain name recognition in your industry. I would err on the side of caution and not go down this slippery slope. I say this because it is very easy for another investor or a tenant to get you and your company confused. It is crucial that when you transact business, give out business cards, enter into wholesales or lease options, or even when you interact with your tenants, that they understand that they are dealing with you as an agent of your investment company.
When I hand out a business card, the name of my company is prominently displayed on the card and my name is listed as manager of the business. By doing this simple act, I have put the other person on notice that when they are dealing with me they are dealing with me as an agent of the company. If a transaction goes sideways, the other party has to look to my company for relief instead of me personally. The purpose of our investment companies is to separate ourselves from personally liability if something goes wrong inside of our businesses. If you name the investment company after yourself, you are giving the other party a very good argument in court: they didn't realize that a separate company existed; they thought they were dealing with you personally. Take this argument completely off the table and name your company something other than your own name.
Probably one of the greatest blunders business owners make is they fail to keep personal funds and business funds separate. Every investment company you have needs to have its own bank account. When your company makes money, it is not your money to do with as you choose. You need to follow the formalities of how your company is created. There are different rules and tax consequences when you are pulling money out of a corporation than when you pull money out of your LLC. I once met an investor who had 37 LLCs set up by one of the "best" law firms in Wisconsin, but his attorney never explained to him that each company needed its own account. All of the rent payments were coming directly to his own personal account. Unfortunately, a tenant slipped and fell on one of the properties held in one of his LLCs. During the lawsuit, the plaintiff was able to convince the court that since the LLCs were not treated separately in terms of the funds and accounts, all of the LLCs should be ignored and this investor ended up getting held personally liable for the injury. All of the time and expense in creating those 37 LLCs was a complete waste because of this one simple mistake.
•	There could be adverse tax consequences depending on the tax structure of your company.
•	You open yourself up in a lawsuit for the plaintiff to successfully argue that the company is really your "alter ego" since you consistently used business funds for personal items.
If you are purchasing something and you are not sure if it will be used for your business, pay for the item personally. If it ends up being an item that will be devoted solely to the business, your company can always reimburse you for the expense.
No matter what type of business you have created for your investment activities, if you have any control of how the company is run then you are an agent of that company. You need to sign business documents and contracts in your official capacity, whether it be president, manager or general partner. Unless the document is created on your own company letter head or specifically designated in the agreement, as an agent of the company, always sign your name and then indicate your position within the company. For example, when my LLC entered into a contract with a mobile phone provider, I signed as Greg Boots, Manager of Anderson Business Advisors. By indicating my position within the company, I put the provider on notice that I was acting in my managerial capacity on behalf of the LLC and not as Greg Boots personally.
• Name your investment company something other than your name.
•	Each business needs its own bank account.
•	Don't use business funds for personal expenses.
•	Always sign documents as an agent of the company.
By following these simple rules of business formality you will help ensure that if the worse-case scenario arises, it will be much more difficult for the plaintiff to convince the court to hold you personally liable for the harm.
Greg – This is one of the most important posts on the site that I've seen. Many new investors simply put properties in their name and leave themselves open. Not only that, but as you point out in the article, little mistakes you make by commingling your business and personal funds can get you into trouble.
Thanks again for the great lesson!
Lawyers do not get paid because they are smart. I have worked for enough of them to know and have conducted business with them to be assured of it. Point in fact is mentioned in the article about the 37 LLCs – just who do you think was making money by charging for these even though they were not needed?! And because of the stupidity of the lawyer guess who pays for the mistakes – the client has the privilege of paying his lawyer because the lawyer makes a mess of it. Truth be told, most people do not want to spend the time to do their own due diligence and think that paying a lawyer for his services will some how get better results – this is not true. Even more on point is if you do not spend the time to understand what you are doing, how do you know that what your legal counsel is telling you to do is correct?! This is why people like Madoff and others get away with fraud. Food for thought.
Great article, so simply explained. Thanks for cutting through the mess.
Greg: Great article. I'm a newbie here and I've learned a lot just by reading 2 blogs of yours. There's a lot of things that a new real estate investment company owner like myself needs to know and a lot of what you said would NOT have been covered by anyone else or in any other way. Thanks for taking the time to make these blogs. The BP community is much better with you a part of it.

Brandon Walker. One of the top players in his class, the extremely athletic two-way player has tools to dominate both offensively and on the mound. Walker was 6-1 with a 1.85 ERA while hitting .410 with 24 RBIs. The toolset is that of a potential top pick in 2019 and could carry the Eagles in 2018.
KEY PLAYERS LOST
OF Chris Jerry
A somewhat down year for a traditional 3A powerhouse, the North Florida Christian Eagles return nearly every position player and all of their pitchers from 2017. Led by Florida State recruit Brandon Walker, who led the team in both wins and average, has the chance to be a dominant force on the mound and at the plate. Bolstering the rotation is 2018 draft prospect Matthew Dickey who was 2-2 with a 1.49 ERA with 71 strikeouts in 37.2 innings, and Major Posey who was 4-2 with a 1.34 ERA. Offensively the Eagles were also led by Walker and JD Tease, who batted .404 with 30 RBIS. There is a depth of talent both on the mound and at the plate that brings North Florida Christian in at No 8 in the Preseason Power25.

The Rise and Fall of General Electric
By: William D. Cohan
Narrated by: Eric Martin
5.0 out of 5 stars 5.0 (15 ratings)
Brought to you by Penguin.
A magisterial history of the astounding rise—and unimaginable fall—of America's most iconic corporation.
Perhaps no company reflects American ingenuity, innovation and industrial fortunes as well as the iconic General Electric Company. Producing storied leaders and almost every product imaginable, GE built a cult of leadership success that hid cracks in its foundation. In this masterful history, William D. Cohan, one of America's most eminent financial journalists, argues that GE's legacy is both a paragon and a cautionary tale through which to understand American business.
Power Failure limns the eventful 130-year history of GE, bringing fresh analysis drawn from rare interviews with key figures of the company's golden era, including Jack Welch himself.
As Cohan recounts, Welch traded on a sterling legacy to make GE the most valuable company in the world, while cloaking its vulnerabilities. What he handed to his successor Jeffrey Immelt was, Cohan argues, both an impossible standard and a more troubled reality.
Tracing the company's leaps and stumbles through the personalities that defined it, Power Failure offers a surprising retelling of the GE story, puncturing the myth we know for a fresh look at its legacy—and what it tells us about the state of business in America.

incredible amount of research
worth reading. narration was great and gripping. The story was new to me, and the amount of research is incredible. It tells the story from the invention of electricity to how it became commercialised. Just didn't like 1 or 2 comments from the author, where he shared personal opinions, but these are few in the nearly 30h duration.

Q: Atlas of Complex Projective Space In the context of Quantum Mechanics I'm trying to verify that the complex projective space $P(\mathbb{C}^n):=\mathbb{C}^n / \sim$ with $x \sim y :\iff x = \lambda \cdot y$ for some $\lambda \in \mathbb{C}  $ where $x,y\in \mathbb{C}^n$ is a Kähler manifold.
It's an exercise that I've done in my differential geometry class but in the quantum mechanical context the construction of the atlas is a bit different.
Basically I'm just experiencing one technial difficulty which I'm going to describe now:
In the following ( , ) always denotes the euclidean scalar product on   $\mathbb{C}^n$.
Take $\phi \in S(\mathbb{C}^n) := \{ \psi \in \mathbb{C}^n : (\psi,\psi)=1 \}$
. Consider $[\phi] \in P(\mathbb{C}^n)$ the corresponding equivalence class in the complex projective space.
Now consider:
$V_\phi := \{ x \in P(\mathbb{C}^n) : (\phi,x)\ \neq 0 \}$, $\{\phi\}^{\perp}:=\{ x \in \mathbb{C}^n : (\phi,x)=0 \}$ and the map $b_{\phi} : V_\phi \to \{\phi\}^{\perp}$ given by $[x] \mapsto \frac{x}{(\phi,x)} - \phi$ which is just the renormalized orthogonal projection onto the orthogonal complement of $\phi$.
The claim is that $\{ (V_{\phi}, b_{\phi}) \}_{\phi \in S(\mathbb{C}^n)}$ is an atlas for $P(\mathbb{C}^n)$.
The technical difficulty that I'm having is the following. When computing the transition maps between different charts I want to find an explicit form of the set $b_{\phi}(V_{\phi} \cap V_{\psi})$ for some $\phi,\psi \in S(\mathbb{C}^n)$.
My guess is that we have $b_{\phi}(V_{\phi} \cap V_{\psi})$ = $\{\phi\}^{\perp}$ $\cap \{\psi\}^{\perp}$. However I'm unable to show that $b_{\phi}(V_{\phi} \cap V_{\psi})$ $\supset$ $\{\phi\}^{\perp}$ $\cap \{\psi\}^{\perp}$ and here I'm particularly worried about the case when we have $(\phi,\psi) = 0$.
I'm not sure if there might be a mistake in my guess for the set $b_{\phi}(V_{\phi} \cap V_{\psi})$. In any case I'd be more than happy if someone could provide me with some help with this (rather technical) issue.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards.

A: Your guess for $b_\phi(V_\phi\cap V_\psi)$ was incorrect, but the map $b_\phi$ does what you wanted (assuming you take the inner product to be conjugate linear in first variable). Personally, I would not subtract $\phi$ in the definition of $b_\phi$ because $$[x]\mapsto x/(\phi,x)$$  is easier to visualize as the map that sends complex lines through the origin (specifically, those in $V_\phi$) to their intersection with affine subspace $\phi+\{\phi\}^\perp$. This is obviously a bijection.
When you restrict to $V_\phi\cap V_\psi$, you remove the complex lines orthogonal to $\psi$ from consideration. Intersecting with $\phi+\{\phi\}^\perp$, we get the set
$$\{\phi+\xi : \xi\in \{\phi\}^\perp, \phi+\xi\notin \{\psi\}^\perp \} \tag1$$
Therefore, in your version (with subtracted $\phi$), the image of $V_\phi\cap V_\psi$ under $b_\phi$ is
$$\{\xi : \xi\in \{\phi\}^\perp, \phi+\xi\notin \{\psi\}^\perp \} \tag2$$
The advantage of using affine subspaces for charts is that transition maps are also easy to visualize: they are simply radial projections. For example, $b_\psi\circ b_\phi^{-1}$ maps the set (1) onto
$$\{\psi+\xi : \xi\in \{\psi\}^\perp, \psi+\xi\notin \{\phi\}^\perp \} \tag3$$
via
$$\phi+\xi \mapsto \frac{\phi+\xi}{(\psi, \phi+\xi)} \tag4$$
which is a rational map with nonvanishing denominator.

A: See these notes on Kähler geometry.  In the preface it mentions

smooth complex projective varieties together with the Riemannian metric induced by
  the Fubini–Study metric are Kähler

Open Source and PHP Continues to Dominate Web Development
May 20, 2015 6 Min Read by Reetam Das
Is there any language which doesn't have an open source? Be it Java or Android or even the high-priced and premium graded Apple's Swift, everyone has understood the integral advantages of Open Sourcing which allows swift development and widespread popularity of the language. It came into existence back in 1995 and soon came to be known as the most sought-after server-side scripting languages with an aim to assist web page development.
The term PHP is expanded to Hypertext Preprocessor and it is broadly used scripting language in the arena of web development and other general purposes associated with website design and creation. Though PHP is mainly used by PHP development agency to manage the server side, it is the not the actual cause behind designing it. It can be utilized to create dynamic websites loaded with active content which might have heavy animations and flash to attract and suit the preferences of the end users.
The Reason Behind PHP's Popularity
The popularity of PHP and open source is ever rising and the reason behind this are many, ranging from relentless improvements, effortless maintenance and crucial updates which can be accessed through the PHP web pages. Let's find out why PHP Development Services are keeping PHP at the top of the bill-
● Simplicity is brilliance: Programming PHP is as simple as producing a document in English on the personal computer. The language units used here is bytes and bits making it effortless to be run on almost any system. Contrary to any other language, writing PHP is simple and straightforward.
● Doesn't dig a hole in the pocket: Being an open source network, PHP is not just handy but comes for free and supports a variety of documentation. This feature makes PHP one of the most coveted systems which have found its way into well-known social media apps such as Wikipedia, Twitter, WordPress and Facebook among others. Since it is open source, PHP is always available for novice developers who are willing to try their aptitude in coding.
● Works greatly with CMS: As PHP makes the process easy and simple, the developers can alter the codes according to their will. Any website comprising of PHP can be absolutely customized and transformed as per the needs and preferences of the consumers.
● Matchless versatility: The best thing about PHP is that it can be used in almost all platforms where the designers can coordinate the webpage at differing phases. For business concerns, this paves the way for the economic utilization of the present PHP framework as it can be used for a number of platforms such as Windows, Linux, and UNIX.
● Ease of access and flexibility: The uniqueness of PHP can be well-documented by the fact that the largest social network, Facebook uses PHP and this has been possible owing to the subordinate language called the Hack which comes up with the changing needs of development.
The Advantages That Come with Open Source & PHP
It goes without saying that PHP offers a host of advantages when it comes to the development of a website and now it's time to find out what these benefits actually include:
● Cross-Platform accessibility: The cross-platform nature of PHP is something that has held the spotlight for this open platform. Being cross-platform means it will help in getting operations done across a number of OS which might include anything from Linux to UNIX to Windows. Another point worthy of being mentioned here is that the programming language of PHP can instantly frame up with Apache as well.
● Open source programming: As already highlighted, PHP is absolutely free to use and if the developer is equipped with the needful knowledge in C and Java language, he can create PHP with ease. Contrary to its other counterparts, PHP is much simpler and you can rest assured to earn an amazing outcome while using it.
● Outstanding returns: When a website is developed, it invariably leads to the expectation that there will be good returns and this is one of the primary aspects that is allied with websites. PHP programming aids in the creation of dynamic websites which, in turn, pave the way for a rising number of visitors and whopping returns.
● Popularity leading to a large community: PHP is armed with a huge community of developers, users, employers, and contributors who are engaged with this open sourcing. Thus, anyone who is willing to hire PHP developers or work as one can never be alone.
● Involvement and incorporation: A major stimulating advantage of the PHP program is that is very much compatible with HTML. This amalgamation makes it easier for the PHP development solutions to incorporate HTML into PHP so that the developers can convert the unattractive, immobile and boring web pages into attractive, dynamic and functional ones.
● Stability, Flexibility, and Speed: Abbreviated as SFS, it is no difficult jargon but stands simply for Stability, Flexibility, and Speed which means that when a developer has PHP at hand, none can stop him from creating websites that allure prospective consumers and convert them with ease.
● Assistance and support: Being one of the most favored open sourcing platforms, PHP comes with certain references and guidelines that can be accessed over the internet. The developers can also come across hoards of teams, forums and support groups who can explain, guide and support the usage of PHP programming. Even if any problem arises, the developer is certain to access numerous online libraries for rescuing from the troubleshooting. What's more exciting is that it is found in a number of popular languages which means that communication can never be a barrier.
● Scalability and other extensions: There are a number of extensions that adorn PHP and it the outcomes are extremely measurable. This means when you hire PHP Development Team who will be designing and creating a webpage, they can get measurable outcomes which can aid in the analysis of the return on investment so that the business can hold better position compared to its contenders in the market.
The dynamic access and painless execution of data of PHP are the major reasons why the platform will not die anytime soon.
Languages stay in the market for a long time as we see BASIC and FORTRAN are still used by a number of developers. Being an open source platform, it is a no-brainer that PHP is not dependent on any one developer which supports its longevity and wholehearted acceptability. The various content management systems founded on PHP are also rising at a steady pace as we can see in Perl, Ruby, Python, JavaScript, and ColdFusion among others.
PHP began its journey as a basic web application and today, it has traversed a long way in being an excellent desktop GUI interface yet they believe that there is still room for improvements for which the door is always kept open. All of these will definitely ensure that PHP will definitely will keep on reigning web development for a long time in the coming future.

A cash discount program can reduce your overall credit card processing expenses by transferring associated fees, via a service charge, to customers making purchases with cards.
If you run a business, you're always on the hunt for ways to maximize your profits. One way to do so, of course, is to reduce business expenses—a task easier said than done. Some costs, such as those for supplies, employee wages and utilities, are simply unavoidable. Another necessity for most businesses is credit card processing, which enables customers to pay in the most convenient way possible. This doesn't mean there aren't ways of reducing these associated costs, however.
A good credit card processor will provide highly competitive processing rates, with even more savings possible through a cash discount program.
This transfers credit card processing fees ordinarily paid by you, to customers making purchases with a card, via a service charge. Implementing such a program can reduce your credit card processing costs by as much as 90%.
How do you go about introducing such a program to reduce your costs?
1. Determine whether your business is right for a cash discount program.
Deals mostly in low-ticket sales.
Has an older customer base.
Is looking to remain competitive with its competition.
2. Research the right program.
Can seamlessly introduce cash discount software into your current credit processing systems and equipment.
Offers a true cash discount program, rather than a surcharge program, which is not legal in all states.
Will not compel you to maintain the program if it's not the right fit.
No Cost Processing by MerchantPro Express (MPX) is a risk-free way of reducing your credit card processing costs by up to 90%. Our program is quick to set up, compatible with many POS systems, and can be canceled at any time.
3. Clearly express the cash discount to your customers.
Cash discounts are legal in all 50 states. They do, however, come with some safeguards to help customers make informed decisions about payment methods. According to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), you must, "disclose the offer clearly and conspicuously," for example. The simplest way to remain compliant with this regulation is to place an unobstructed sign where your customers make purchases.
With the right credit card processor, introducing a cash discount program to reduce your credit card processing costs is simple and easy, and could save your business plenty. To learn more about MPX's No Cost Processing cash discount program, Contact Us!

We recorded a three part series where we dive deep into the guts of networking hardware. All three shows are now published on the packet pushers podcast.
If you're just arriving here from the Packet Pushers site, I've put together a dedicated page to capture all of my hardware-related posts.

Q: How can i replace GRUB with the Windows 10 bootloader on UEFI? So i recently made a dual-boot with Ubuntu unity 20.04 And Windows 10 Pro, but I noticed that the bootloader has changed to GRUB.
I have seen tutorials on this topic, but they keep mention to change some stuff on MBR to work or using EasyBCD.
The thing is, I'm on UEFI with GPT and EasyBCD doesnt support some stuff when you are on UEFI.
The reason im asking this is because i installed ubuntu and (possibly grub) on my external hdd and, removing the drive wouldnt allow me to boot to any os at all.
Btw I cant enable MBR or any other form of legacy stuff anywhere, so im pretty much stuck with UEFI.

Illinois Blows By Miami (OH), 50-14
Filed Under:Austin Boucher, Donovonn Young, Evan Wilson, Illinois Fighting Illini, Josh Ferguson, Matt LaCosse, Miami Redhawks, Nathan Scheelhaase, Rokeem Williams
STATE COLLEGE, PA - OCTOBER 29: Nathan Scheelhaase #2 of the Illinois Fighting Illini drops back to pass against the Penn State Nittany Lions during the game on October 29, 2011 at Beaver Stadium in State College, Pennsylvania.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — Nathan Scheelhaase threw for 278 yards and five touchdowns and Illinois used a 29-point second quarter to blow by Miami of Ohio 50-14 on Saturday.
The senior quarterback had all five touchdown throws for Illinois (3-1) by halftime. He finished 19 of 24 for 278 yards with one interception
For Illinois, the blowout meant the third win of the season came early. A year ago the Illini never saw win No. 3, finishing 2-10 and closing with nine-straight losses.
Miami lost its third-straight game to a BCS school after falling to Cincinnati last weekend and Kentucky two weeks ago.
Quarterback Austin Boucher finished 7 of 13 for 95 yards and a touchdown. Fellow signal-caller Austin Gearing carried the ball 16 times for 81 yards.
Illinois opens the Big Ten season —where the Illini were winless last year — next Saturday at Nebraska. But the Illini never appeared to look past the struggling RedHawks.
Scheelhaase moved the offense quickly up field on the opening drive, taking a quick 7-0 lead on a 2-yard pass to tight end Matt LaCosse in the back of the end zone with 11:31 left in the first quarter.
But the big second quarter finished Miami. The touchdowns came in waves.
First Scheelhaase hit another tight end, Evan Wilson, from 8 yards. The 6-6 senior jumped high in the back of the end zone, pulling the high ball down and just tapping a foot to the turf before falling out of bounds. A two-point conversion pushed the score to 15-0 with 13:39 left in the half.
Then, after Illinois recovered an onside kick, Scheelhaase found Josh Ferguson with a screen pass. The tailback scooted 15 yards, running through a would-be tackle by Brison Burris on the way to increasing the lead to 22-0 with 12:06 left in the half.
Four minutes later Scheelhaase connected with yet another tight end, hitting Jon Davis on a 4-yard touchdown for a 29-0 lead.
And, finally, after taking over near midfield after a RedHawk fumble, Scheelhaase looked long to LaCosse, who this time scored from 45 yards out.
Down 36-0 with 5:18 left in the half, Miami was stunned.
The fumble, as much as any other play, summed up the afternoon for the RedHawks.
Miami was already down 29-0 and badly needed points, but quarterback Boucher lost the snap and the ball bounced behind him. Running back Spencer Treadwell fell on it.
Both the ball and momentum belonged to the Illini, and Scheelhaase quickly turned it into the long strike to LaCosse.
It was Scheelhaase's fifth touchdown pass of the half — and fourth to a tight end — breaking his own personal best for touchdown passes in game by one and tying with Jeff George and three other players for second on the all-time Illini list behind Dave Wilson's six against Ohio State in 1980.
With the game in hand, Scheelhaase took a seat on the bench in the third quarter, finishing 19 of 24 for 278 yards with one interception.
As he has all season, Scheelhaase spread the ball around. Eleven Illini caught passes Saturday. Ferguson led them with five catches for 77 yards and the touchdown.
Ferguson also carried the ball eight times for 71 yards. Donovonn Young led Illinois with 80 rushing yards on 11 carries.
For a defense in need of a lift after giving up more than 600 yards in its last outing against Washington, the RedHawks arrived right on time.
Miami had 104 yards of offense at the half, more than it had managed in either of its two previous games, and finished with a season-high 250 yards. And the RedHawks nudged into Illini territory over and over.
But they trailed 43-0 at one point and never really threatened to score until the game had been all but decided. Most Miami drives died short of the Illinois 40 and, for nearly 43 minutes the Illini pitched a shutout.
The RedHawks didn't get on the board until late in the third quarter, and even that one didn't come easy.
Facing a fourth-and-goal at the Illini 1-yard line, Boucher rolled right and hit receiver Rokeem Williams in the back corner of the end zone. Williams held the ball for an instant before Illinois cornerback Jaylen Dunlap punched the ball free and it hit the ground.
The official behind Williams waited a long second before signaling a touchdown. The play was upheld by a review but an Illini crowd enjoying the blowout booed long and loud.
RedHawks running back Jamire Westbrook was carted off the field with a hurt right knee in the first half. After lying on the turf for several minutes the sophomore managed to stand and hobble to the cart, where he was sat up and signaled to his teammates with a hand as he was driven away.
Miami sports information staff didn't immediately have information about his injury.
