Eyrbyggarnas saga (isl. Eyrbyggja saga) är en av islänningasagorna. Den handlar om koloniseringen av en del av västra Island.

Handling
Eyrbyggarnas saga handlar om nybyggarna på Eyr, som är en gård på Snæfellsnes på Island. Namnet på sagan är något missvisande eftersom den även handlar om klaner i Þórsnes och Álftafjörður. Den centrala karaktären som skulle ha gett sitt namn till sagan är Snorri Þorgrímsson, mer känd under namnet Snorre gode. Snorre var brorson till hjälten i Gisle Surssons saga, och har även en framträdande roll i Njáls saga och i Laxdalingarnas saga.

Sagan börjar vid tiden för de första bosättningarna på Island, men de flesta av händelserna äger rum vid slutet av 900-talet och början av 1000-talet. Även om den konstnärligt inte går att jämföra med Egil Skallagrimssons saga, Njáls saga och Laxdalingarnas saga, är det en underhållande berättelse. Det finns interna bevis på att författaren kände till Laxdalingarnas saga och Egil Skallagrimssons saga. Den skrevs förhållandevis sent under sagoåldern. Sagans huvudsakliga tema ligger i att följa några viktiga familjers öde, när de bosatte sig på Island, snarare än att fokusera på en enda hjälte.

Sagan har en viss historisk trovärdighet, med undantag för ett fåtal övernaturliga händelser, såsom spökerierna på Fróðá. Spökerierna inträffar efter en völvas död, och de består i huvudsak av syner med djur som stiger upp genom golvet, och döda män som kommer in i huset för att värma sig vid brasan.

Sagan innehåller också flera hänvisningar till koloniseringarna av Grönland och Vinland, det senare benämnt som Vinland det goda. Man nämner också en resa till Stor-Irland eller Hvítramannaland, genomförd av Gudleif Gudlaugsson och hans besättning. Detta land sägs ligga bortom Vinland. Invånarna, som talade iriska, hade tidigare flytt från de framryckande nordmännen. Dessa irländare ville döda eller förslava nordmännen, som dock räddades genom ingripande av en islänning som levde bland dem. De tog den här mannen för att vara Björn Åsbrandsson, som hade förvisats från Island cirka trettio år tidigare.

Manuskript och översättningar
Eyrbyggarnas saga finns bevarad i kopior gjorda efter Vatnshyrna, samt i olika manuskriptfragment. Sagan anses vara skriven under första delen av 1200-talet.

Sagan finns översatt till svenska av Carl Lönnberg, Hjalmar Alving och Åke Ohlmarks (1963).

SYDNEY — Gladys Berejiklian has led the Coalition to a third term in government in New South Wales despite a rising tide of minor parties and independents, and has become the first woman elected premier of the state at a general election.
Berejiklian told an exuberant crowd of party faithful gathered at the Sofitel in Sydney, which included the former prime minister John Howard and the former premier Nick Greiner, that she was proud of NSW, "a state in which someone with a long surname – and a woman – can be the premier".
"I will continue to – my team and I – will continue to work our guts out to make sure this state and its people continue to ensure that we have the best opportunities on this planet," she said in her victory speech.
Berejiklian said she would work closely with minority parties, "whether or not my government is a majority or minority government".
With most of the votes counted on Saturday night, the coalition had 46 seats – 34 for the Liberals and 12 for the Nationals.
Labor held 35, well short of the 47 seats needed to form a majority government.

Pileup involving transports and passenger vehicles on 401
February 11, 2018 February 12, 2018 Cris Vilela
A vehicle pileup closed the 401 westbound at Marysville Rd, also known as CR49, on Sunday night.
An eyewitness reported seeing 5-6 transports and 2-3 passenger vehicles involved in the collision that occurred at around 8 p.m. in the area roughly equidistant from Kingston and Belleville.
First responders did not immediately confirm the size of the pileup but did report multiple jack-knifed transports in the median and across the roadway, as well as several trapped vehicle occupants with back and neck injuries. Those injuries were assessed as minor. Heavy ice buildup on the roadway due to prolonged freezing rain was considered a significant factor in the collision.
On Monday morning, OPP said in a release that the pileup occurred as a result of a single motor vehicle spin-out, followed by three tractor trailers jackknifing and colliding. A single motor vehicle also left the roadway thereafter due to the tractor trailer collision, according to the release.
It is believed that other tractor trailers and passenger vehicles observed in the immediate vicinity of the collision were able to stop in time and were not actually involved in the pileup.
One of the tractor trailers was split open, and there was a minor leak of diesel from a fuel tank. None of the tractor trailers were carrying hazardous materials, according to the OPP release.
A detour was set up utilizing CR49, Hwy2 and Shannonville Rd. OPP say they reopened the 401 shortly before 3 a.m.

Parboil bratwurst in water or beer. Remove from liquid when not quite fully cooked. Slice brats into 1/2-inch coins, and set aside.
Chop the onion, pepper, asparagus, and potato. Pre-cook potato chunks in microwave until not quite fully cooked.
Add chopped onion, pepper, asparagus, and apple to a large bowl. Add the pre-cooked potato chunks and bratwurst coins and drizzle with olive oil, wine, and vinegar. Toss to coat all well. Add seasonings to taste. Toss again and set aside to marinate for a few minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat the grill and grill basket to medium-high. Add brat-veggie mixture to hot basket. Close grill lid and cook, 5 minutes at a time, flipping mixture with a spatula to prevent burning.
When meat is cooked through and veggies are crisp-tender, remove mixture from grill. Serve immediately over spatzle, sauerkraut, or pasta.
All grills heat differently. Monitor yours to make sure it's hot enough to cook the ingredients, but not too hot so they burn.
I'm a weenie of a German. I hate the taste of sauerkraut and can't stand beer. So what's a half-German girl to do this time of year, when folks everywhere pick up a stein and brat to celebrate the Old World traditions of Oktoberfest? Punt, that's what. Here's what I had in my fridge after a trip to the farmer's market: fresh bratwurst, beautiful fall apples, a pungent white onion, petite potatoes, red bell pepper, and asparagus. Yes, asparagus. Work with me here. What it turned into was a Bavarian Grilled Brats and Veggies recipe that'll knock your lederhosen for a loop! While the grill works its magic, prep whatever you want to serve this with. Wimpo German me opted out of sauerkraut and opted in angel-hair pasta. It'd be completely amazing over spätzle, too. (Find easy boxed spätzle at the grocery store.) This cooks like a Porsche on the Autobahn, easy and fast, so when the meat is done and the veggies are caramelized and crisp-tender, plate 'er up. All grills heat differently. Monitor yours to make sure it's hot enough to cook the ingredients, but not too hot so they burn. Serve with a big ol' stein of beer. But I gotta say, it tasted mighty fine with red wine, too. Oh, did I forget to mention that I'm also half French?

FAIRBANKS, Alaska - The Ice Dogs are making a steady attempt to even-out their win-loss score for the season thus far. Last night's game against the Minnesota Magicians brought them to 3 losses and 2 wins and proved that they have not given up this season.
The Ice Dog's beat The Magicians 3-0.
It was not the most engaging game in the world, as you could probably imagine. Each period only saw a single shot made by the Ice Dogs and had none made by Minnesota. In the 1st period Jonathan Sorenson scored with the assistance of Jax Murray and Dylan Abbott with 3 minutes on the clock, and left it at that.
At the 20 minute mark Martin Jonsson scored with Andrew Garby and Jake Borgida's assistance.
The third at 13 minutes and 54 seconds brought the win for the Dogs with Tanner Edwards scoring with the help of Luke Ciolli and John Stampohar.
A win is still a win and despite such a lose the Magicians will be facing our Ice Dogs once more tonight at 7, hosted by the Richfield Ice Arena.

Biography: Heart of the Father began in the heart of Jeff and Cindi in 2011 after traveling to Haiti on short-term mission trips several times since 2003. The Farbers received the beginning revelation of the ministry while at Charis Bible College. They tell us, "...the personal, real and powerful love of the Father for each of us as His beloved child (is the) revelation we long to share with others especially the Haitian people who God has placed in our hearts to minister to, in the hope that they too will receive this same revelation. For it is indeed the true knowledge of Father God's love that will first change a person from the inside out and then change a nation."
Their mission statement is, to preach the gospel of Father God, love and goodness as revealed in Jesus. To serve Him in serving the Haitian people both physically and spiritually. Their goal is to talk about their faith and minister to other as God enables them. Jeff desires to be an instrument that God can use to reveal Himself as He truly is to others. Cindi has a passion to reach out and minister to the women of Haiti in conferences, and has a passion to share God's healing power with others.
Strengths: Jeff moves in the gift of teaching and preaching, and has the heart of a pastor. Cindi is gifted in one-on-one evangelism, and is able to share with those around her as she easily endears trust from others.

The Pharmaceutical Bioinformatics lab is working on several projects dealing with the discovery of new drugs, analysis of the mechanisms of known compounds as well as the biosynthesis of natural compounds. Some selected projects are described here.
PubMed is a database containing millions of references to biomedical publications. Searching for protein-compound interactions in this continuously growing amount of literature can be an difficult and time-consuming task.
Methylation of cytosins within a CpG dinucleotide is a common epigenetic DNA modification and may arrest cells in a pathogenic state in complex disorders, e.g. cancer or rheumatoid arthritis. CpGs occur mainly in clusters, called CpG islands (CPIs), being present in nearly 70% of the human genes' promotor region. The Illumina HumanMethylation450 Beadchip platform provides a genome-wide coverage of 485,577 CpGs. Analysis of these CpGs reveals a correlation between changes in DNA methylation and gene expression, even though not all sites have the same impact.
Epigenetic mechanisms are essential for normal cellular development and maintenance of cellular homeostasis. In the past few years, it has been well established that epigenetic aberrations play an important role in a wide range of human diseases, including cancer. Unlike genetic mutations, epigenetic modifications are reversible, which makes them an attractive target for disease therapy. As a consequence, the last decade has seen an emergence of small molecule inhibitors against new epigenetic targets being implicated in various diseases, particularly cancer.
The diagram displays the superposition of the KAc binding sites of p300 (green) and CBP (yellow) in complex with XDM-CBP (Hügle et al., 2017).
The secondary metabolism of bacteria, fungi and plants yields a vast number of bioactive substances. The constantly increasing amount of published genomic data provides the opportunity for an efficient identification of gene clusters by genome mining. Conversely, for many natural products with resolved structures, the encoding gene clusters have not yet been identified. Structural elucidation of the actual secondary metabolite is still challenging, especially due to the currently unpredictable post-modifications.
To address this, SeMPI was designed, a web server providing a Secondary Metabolite Prediction and Identification pipeline for natural products synthesized by polyketide synthases of type I modular (Zierep et al., 2017). Further extensions of SeMPI require the improvement of state-of-the-art prediction algorithms, but also the implementation of new algorithms adapted to the metabolite in focus.
The core of all secondary metabolite prediction approaches is based on the accurate functional classification of the proteins responsible for its synthesis. In order to facilitate this task a pipeline was designed which merges all crucial steps for efficient protein classification. It allows for the collection and annotation of related sequences. These can be used for parallel benchmarking of suitable machine learning algorithms, such as hidden Markov profiles, position specific scoring matrices and optimized decision trees, accompanied by careful parameter optimization of each design. The most efficient classification system can then be incorporated into the prediction software. Advantages of this set-up are the straightforward evaluation of a newly created classification algorithm, as well as an update option, which keeps the learning data up-to-date and therefore the ability to build prediction rules for various kinds of gene cluster products, such as polyketides of type I iterative and nonribosomal peptides.
Currently the feasibility of structure based classifications are also evaluated by incorporation of secondary structure assignment tools.
Streptomyces are a genus of ubiquitous soil bacteria known for the rich diversity of biological active secondary metabolites they produce. The expression of these compounds is often coupled to complex phenotypic changes, including morphological differentiation and reorganization of the organism's metabolic machinery. Despite these comprehensive changes, the yield of the produced substances is typically rather low.
Additionally, we use the insights gained to develop efficient and novel metabolic engineering strategies. The models open up the possibility of predicting the consequences of genetic modifications on a global level, allowing for a rational pre-selection of in vitro experiments.
With these combined efforts we want to improve access to rare and therefore often expensive biogenic drugs.


Best-selling author Eric Brown has created a brand new shared world for Abaddon Books: Weird Space. This thrilling space-opera series will begin with the release of The Devil's Nebula. Brown will introduce readers to the human smugglers, veterans and ne'erdowells who are part of the Expansion – and their uneasy neighbours, the Vetch Empire.
When an evil race threatens not only the Expansion, but the Vetch too - an evil from another dimension which infests humans and Vetch alike and bends individuals to do their hideous bidding, only cooperation between them means the difference between a chance of survival and no chance at all.

Q: How do I merge several calendar (iCal format) into one in Perl? I have several non-overlapping ical files that I want to merge into one ical file.
What is the preferred way to do this?

A: After reading correct (self)-answer from @knarf and Format iCalendar files at support.google.com, I succesfully used this:
mergeIcal() {
    sed -e '$d' $1
    sed -e '1,/VEVENT/{/VEVENT/p;d}' $2
}

This take whole first argument file but not last line (footer) and concatenate second argument file without header.
Event duplication will be automatically dropped when loaded by most common Calendar Agent.

A: There are a couple of options (ordered IMHO least useful to most useful for your task):

*

*If you prefer to use the "standard" DateTime set of modules for datetime manipulation, you can parse in and print calendars using DateTime::Format::ICal . However, that module parses iCal formatted data but not files.

*For purpose of parsing/combining multiple files, you can use iCal::Parser .  From SYNOPSIS (see line #3 from the botom):
use iCal::Parser;
my $parser=iCal::Parser->new();
my $hash=$parser->parse($file);
$parser->parse($another_file);
my $combined=$parser->calendar;

Or
use iCal::Parser;
my $combined=iCal::Parser->new->parse(@files); #### BINGO!!!!!

However, this module doesn't print the resulting merged data back into a file, at least that I know of.

*Data::ICal set of modules has both parsing and printing, with main module Data::ICal capable of generating a file.
I wasn't able to find out how to merge the different calendars officially, but it should be fairly trivially to do by looping over second calendar object's entries and properties (one's an arrayref one is a hash) and using add_entry() and add_property() of the first calendar object to merge.

*I think you should also be able to convert ical::Parser merged data into Data::ICal, since the former produces lists of Text::vFile::asData objects (with dates replaced by DateTime objects); and the latter has parse_object() method to parse Text::vFile::asData objects.

A: I ended up concatenate every file without their header/footer and adding header/footer manually.
(I can't accept my own answer whithin 2 days)

What Are The Ways To Earn Crypto-Currencies?
The first step towards obtaining units of a certain crypto-currency based on bitcoin is to register a corresponding wallet, creating it either on your personal computer or on an online server. Both variants have their advantages and drawbacks; however, most crypto-currency magnates prefer to keep their funds on online servers, for security reasons. Once you have a crypto-wallet, choose a suitable method of earning the digital coins.
1. Mining. The process of generating units of a crypto-currency with the help of your personal computer's capacities is called mining. From the technical standpoint, it's so simple that even a novice will cope with the task. The gains or losses from most deals involving a crypto-currency can be projected with the use of an ordinary calculator. Worth noting, in recent years it's becoming increasingly difficult for novices to achieve serious successes. Hundreds of thousands of people are nowadays engaged in the mining of digital coins; many of them employ dedicated high-performance equipment. Taking into account the daily limitations on the mineable amount of digital coins, the resource-rich miners are always a few steps ahead.
2. Faucets. The global network has an abundance of sites that give small amounts of a crypto-currency to their visitors. Unofficially, such online resources are called faucets. Every time you visit such a site, you obtain a certain (usually tiny) amount of digital coins; using referral links can increase your gains. However, the profits earned from faucets are barely worth the time spent, so advanced crypto-currency users often employ dedicated scripts.
3. Exchanges. An exchange is an online platform where you can buy bitcoin by credit card, or trade your crypto-currency units. Firstly, you pour some funds into the exchange system. Then your task is to analyze the tendencies related to the exchange rates, and to trade you coins at the most favorable moment. Although this may sound simple, successful trading requires excellent analytic skills and a lot of dedication.

Q: Apache Airflow: How to template Volumes in DockerOperator using Jinja Templating I want to convey list of volumes into DockerOperator using Jinja template:

*

*hard coded volumes works fine:
volumes=['first:/dest', 'second:/sec_destination']

*however following jinja template does not work:
volumes=[f"{{{{ ti.xcom_pull(task_ids='my_task', key='dockerVolumes')
}}}}"]
500 Server Error: Internal Server Error ("invalid mode:
/sec_destination')")
I found workaround that is acceptable for me however is not perfect:

*

*acceptable only for cases where volues would have always 2 elements
volumes=[f"{{{{ ti.xcom_pull(task_ids='my_task', key='dockerVolumes')[0] }}}}", f"{{{{ ti.xcom_pull(task_ids='my_task', key='dockerVolumes')[1] }}}}"]

A: For anyone who is using airflow >= 2.0.0
volumes parameter was deprecated in favor of mounts which is a list of docker.types.Mount. Fortunately, airflow evaluates templates recursively, which means that every object with template_parameters that is a value of any field in template_fields of the parent object will be evaluated as well. So in order to evaluate docker.types.Mount fields we need to do two things:

*

*Add mounts to DockerOperator.template_fields

*Add template_fields = (<field_name_1>, ..., <field_name_n>) to every docker.types.Mount.

So to template source, target, and type parameters in the DockerOperator subclass you can implement it the following way:
class DockerOperatorExtended(DockerOperator):
    template_fields = (*DockerOperator.template_fields, 'mounts')

    def __init__(self, **kwargs):
        mounts = kwargs.get('mounts', [])
        for mount in mounts:
            mount.template_fields = ('Source', 'Target', 'Type')
        kwargs['mounts'] = mounts
        super().__init__(**kwargs)

A: In order to provide a value of a field by template, that field must be part of template_fields.
docker operator does not have volume as template_fields that is why you cannot set it via jinja2.
The solution for this is to extend DockerOperator and include volume as template_fields.

A: Another solution is writing your own ninja filter (for spliting pulled string from xcom) and add it as elem of 'user_defined_filters' in DAG object initialization.

Q: Update database in asp.net not working i have in asp.net a few textboxes and i wish to update my database with the values that they encapsulate .
The problem is that it doesn't work and although it doesn't work, the syntax seems correct and there are no errors present . Here is my linkbutton :
<asp:linkbutton id="clickOnSave" runat="server"
                onclick="Save_Click" Text="Save Profile" />

and my update function
protected void Save_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    SqlConnection con = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection();
    con.ConnectionString = "DataSource=.\\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:\\Users\\alex\\Documents\\seeubook_db.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True";

    con.Open();

    String commandString = "UPDATE users SET last_name='" + Text4.Text.Trim() + "' , first_name='" + Textbox1.Text.Trim() + "' , about_me='" + Textbox5.Text.Trim() + "' , where_i_live='" +  Textbox2.Text.Trim() + "' ,  where_i_was_born='" + Textbox3.Text.Trim() + "' , work_place='" + Textbox4.Text.Trim() + "' WHERE email='" + Session["user"] + "'";

    SqlCommand sqlCmd = new SqlCommand(commandString, con);
    sqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
    con.Close();
}

A: I'm always a bit weary about the User Instance=true in a connection string..... at times, it tends to create a new MDF file "on the fly" and when you update that MDF, then your changes might be just "gone" one your app has completed running.... See MSDN docs on User Instances.
I would suggest that you:

*

*attach your MDF file to SQL Server Express on your machine, using SQL Server Express Management Studio

*then use a server-based approach to your SQL Server Express database rather than attaching a file...

In that case, your database connection string would then look something like:
server=.\\SQLEXPRESS;database=YourDatabaseName;Integrated Security=SSPI;

And while you're at it, I would also recommend to:

*

*wrap your SqlConnection and SqlCommand into using blocks to ensure proper disposal

*open your connection as late as possible

*use a parametrized query instead of concatenating together your SQL command - doing so is a wide open door for SQL injection attacks!

So your code would look something like this:
string connStr = "server=.\\SQLEXPRESS;database=YourDatabaseName;Integrated Security=SSPI;";

string cmdStmt = "UPDATE dbo.Users SET last_name = @lastName, " +
   "first_name = @firstName, about_me = @aboutMe, where_i_live = @whereILive, " +
   "where_i_was_born = @whereIWasBorn, work_place = @workPlace " +
   "WHERE email = @userEMail";

using(SqlConnection sqlCon = new SqlConnection(connStr))
using(SqlCommand sqlCmd = new SqlCommand(cmdStmt, sqlCon))
{
   // define parameters
   sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@lastName", SqlDbType.VarChar, 50);
   sqlCmd.Parameters["@lastName"].Value = Text4.Text.Trim();
   // and so on for all the parameters

   sqlCon.Open();
   sqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
   sqlCon.Close();
}

A: Debug! Look your LinkButton Click Event really go into Save_Click function. And then check 'sqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery();' return result.

A: You need to write your code for filling Textbox's at page load as below :
public page_load()
{
   if(!ispostBack)
   {
     // Write code to fill controls first time
    }

}

But when Leo's childhood friend and first love Elliot returns as the captain of a successful whiskey ship, everything changes. Elliot was the one that got away, the boy Leo's family deemed to be unsuitable for marriage. Now, he's the biggest catch of the season and he seems determined to make Leo's life miserable. But old habits die hard, and as Leo navigates the glittering balls of the Valg Season, she finds herself falling for her first love in a game of love, lies, and past regrets.
Title: Belle Révolte
Author: Linsey Miller
Emilie des Marais is more at home holding scalpels than embroidery needles and is desperate to escape her noble roots to serve her country as a physician. But society dictates a noble lady cannot perform such gruesome work.
Annette Boucher, overlooked and overworked by her family, wants more from life than her humble beginnings and is desperate to be trained in magic. So when a strange noble girl offers Annette the chance of a lifetime, she accepts.
Emilie and Annette swap lives—Annette attends finishing school as a noble lady to be trained in the ways of divination, while Emilie enrolls to be a physician's assistant, using her natural magical talent to save lives.
But when their nation instigates a frivolous war, Emilie and Annette must work together to help the rebellion end a war that is based on lies.
Title: All The Stars And Teeth
Author: Adalyn Grace
As princess of the island kingdom Visidia, Amora Montara has spent her entire life training to be High Animancer—the master of souls. The rest of the realm can choose their magic, but for Amora, it's never been a choice. To secure her place as heir to the throne, she must prove her mastery of the monarchy's dangerous soul magic.
When her demonstration goes awry, Amora is forced to flee. She strikes a deal with Bastian, a mysterious pirate: he'll help her prove she's fit to rule, if she'll help him reclaim his stolen magic.
But sailing the kingdom holds more wonder—and more peril—than Amora anticipated. A destructive new magic is on the rise, and if Amora is to conquer it, she'll need to face legendary monsters, cross paths with vengeful mermaids, and deal with a stow-away she never expected… or risk the fate of Visidia and lose the crown forever.
I am the right choice. The only choice. And I will protect my kingdom.
Title: Oona Out Of Order
Author: Margarita Montimore
Expected Release Date: February 25, 2020
Just because life may be out of order, doesn't mean it's broken.
It's New Year's Eve 1982, and Oona Lockhart has her whole life before her. At the stroke of midnight she will turn nineteen, and the year ahead promises to be one of consequence. Should she go to London to study economics, or remain at home in Brooklyn to pursue her passion for music and be with her boyfriend? As the countdown to the New Year begins, Oona faints and awakens thirty-two years in the future in her fifty-one-year-old body. Greeted by a friendly stranger in a beautiful house she's told is her own, Oona learns that with each passing year she will leap to another age at random. And so begins Oona Out of Order…
Hopping through decades, pop culture fads, and much-needed stock tips, Oona is still a young woman on the inside but ever changing on the outside. Who will she be next year? Philanthropist? Club Kid? World traveler? Wife to a man she's never met?
Title: Yes No Maybe So
Author: Becky Albertalli & Aisha Saeed
Jamie Goldberg is cool with volunteering for his local state senate candidate—as long as he's behind the scenes. When it comes to speaking to strangers (or, let's face it, speaking at allto almost anyone), Jamie's a choke artist. There's no way he'd ever knock on doors to ask people for their votes…until he meets Maya.
Maya Rehman's having the worst Ramadan ever. Her best friend is too busy to hang out, her summer trip is canceled, and now her parents are separating. Why her mother thinks the solution to her problems is political canvassing—with some awkward dude she hardly knows—is beyond her.
MAYBE SO
Going door to door isn't exactly glamorous, but maybe it's not the worst thing in the world. After all, the polls are getting closer—and so are Maya and Jamie. Mastering local activism is one thing. Navigating the cross-cultural romance of the century is another thing entirely.
Title: Resistance Women
Author: Jennifer Chiaverini
From the New York Times bestselling author of Mrs. Lincoln's Dressmaker, an enthralling historical saga that recreates the danger, romance, and sacrifice of an era and brings to life one courageous, passionate American–Mildred Fish Harnack–and her circle of women friends who waged a clandestine battle against Hitler in Nazi Berlin.
After Wisconsin graduate student Mildred Fish marries brilliant German economist Arvid Harnack, she accompanies him to his German homeland, where a promising future awaits. In the thriving intellectual culture of 1930s Berlin, the newlyweds create a rich new life filled with love, friendships, and rewarding work–but the rise of a malevolent new political faction inexorably changes their fate.
As Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party wield violence and lies to seize power, Mildred, Arvid, and their friends resolve to resist. Mildred gathers intelligence for her American contacts, including Martha Dodd, the vivacious and very modern daughter of the US ambassador. Her German friends, aspiring author Greta Kuckoff and literature student Sara Weiss, risk their lives to collect information from journalists, military officers, and officials within the highest levels of the Nazi regime.
For years, Mildred's network stealthily fights to bring down the Third Reich from within. But when Nazi radio operatives detect an errant Russian signal, the Harnack resistance cell is exposed, with fatal consequences.
Inspired by actual events, Resistance Women is an enthralling, unforgettable story of ordinary people determined to resist the rise of evil, sacrificing their own lives and liberty to fight injustice and defend the oppressed.

With the help of her childhood rival, the handsome Shadow Heir, and a snarky, cursed cat, Kaia must figure out how to control both her fire and her confidence in time to save Okarria.

But will their combined forces be enough to foil an ancient enemy who is mixing Greek and Egyptian incantations for an evil purpose? Rick Riordan wields his usual storytelling magic in this adrenaline-fueled adventure.
Title: Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief
Percy Jackson is a good kid, but he can't seem to focus on his schoolwork or control his temper. And lately, being away at boarding school is only getting worse – Percy could have sworn his pre-algebra teacher turned into a monster and tried to kill him. When Percy's mom finds out, she knows it's time that he knew the truth about where he came from, and that he go to the one place he'll be safe. She sends Percy to Camp Half Blood, a summer camp for demigods (on Long Island), where he learns that the father he never knew is Poseidon, God of the Sea. Soon a mystery unfolds and together with his friends—one a satyr and the other the demigod daughter of Athena – Percy sets out on a quest across the United States to reach the gates of the Underworld (located in a recording studio in Hollywood) and prevent a catastrophic war between the gods.
That's All I Got, Danielle.

Friday around noon I went to Kohls to buy a big suitcase for my trip. On the way to Kohls gas was running about $3.63 and there were long lines at the pump. Odd to see. On the way to the airport later in the afternoon we passed many gas stations that had RUN OUT of gas! And the ones that did have gas were up to $4.19! Crazy!
I flew up to Baltimore to attend Lisa's wedding shower. Lisa picked me up from the airport and we went to dinner at Mimi's Cafe. We were able to catch up over dinner. Then we went to the mall so Lisa could get her ring sized and buy a tripod. She treated me to bubble tea! I love bubble tea and wish we could get it here. . Lisa tried one of the pearls from my drink. On the way to Lisa's house it was pouring rain. A cop pulled out right in front of us and almost hit us head on. Scary. We got settled in the house and I made the earrings and anklets for the wedding party. I totally forgot to take pictures of the finished products though! We stayed up for a while and Edwin, Kim & their daughter Julie came. It was great to meet them since we'll all be on the cruise together.
Saturday Lisa and Julie woke me up and we went to the market to get flowers for Lisa's Mom's grave and for Lisa's hair. Then we went to the graveyard to say Happy Birthday to her mom and drop off the flowers. Back at the house we got ready for the shower. We headed over to Laura's house around 2.
Laura, Nikki, & Crystal did a wonderful job on the shower. Laura's back yard was just beautifully decorated. The shower was different than showers down here. It ran longer and was much bigger. It was gorgeous! Lisa had a wonderful time. They got great gifts and she was able to visit with a lot of friends and family. It was hot though. Like 95* hot! But I wouldn't have missed it. I took pics all during the shower and while she opened presents. But on her camera. So I came home having taken hundreds of pics, but didn't have any to show CSP! After most of the guests left around 8-9pm we hung out with the wedding party. Lisa and Pete gave us our gifts: great Disney tote bags, Mickey earrings, Bridesmaid t shirts, and the jewelry I made. We finally went home around 11:30 pm! A long but wonderful day. Sunday we just kind of hung around the house chatting then went to the airport for my flight home. My flight didn't get in to Charlotte until 9:30 so it was dark. It was nice to see all the city lights. Click here for the rest of the pics from the shower!
Great pictures! Never heard of "Bubble tea" before….I just read about it on Wiki though and it sounds good. What does it taste like?
So glad you had a great time! Wonderful photos!
Bubble tea is so weird/good! We used to have a place here that had it, but they're out of biznazzz now, so the last time I had it was in HI.
Glad you had a nice time at the shower. What a fun trip!!

"Papi, that burro is smiling at me."
Diego's father, Manuel, shook his head. "Burros don't smile. Where do you get such ideas?"
Diego stared at his sandal pushing dirt around on the road and didn't answer. He wanted to say, "But she looks like she's smiling."
"Stay right here. I'm going to bargain with owner."
Diego waited until his father had started to walk away toward the adobe. A clump of clover grew next to a fence post. He yanked at the blossoming plant and placed it on his flat palm.
"Come here," Diego said. "I've got something for you."
The jenny ambled over and leaned her head over the fence. She opened her lips and grasped all the clover, then pulled it into her mouth, and ground it up with her big teeth.
He reached out, stroked her fuzzy head. and scratched behind her ear. Her smile got even bigger.
"I will call you Clover. Maybe Papi will let me ride you."
Diego's father came up behind him. "Don't be getting attached to her. She's a work animal, not a pet."
But his father's warning came too late. Diego looked into Clover's big brown eyes and saw a friend.
"Papi, could I please ride Cl—the burro home?"
His father sighed. "I suppose, but she'll be working in the field with me tomorrow."
His father hoisted Diego onto her back. He sat up straight as they plodded along, looking to see if passers-by noticed. He remembered Mamá reading the Bible story about Jesus riding on a burro.
"Papi, can I feed the burro?"
Manuel rubbed his chin. "You must not overfeed her. Burros can be greedy and eat too much. Then they get sick. Can you clean up after her as well?"
Diego puffed out his chest. "I can do it."
Mamá Rosita came out when they came close to their small home. She clapped her hands. "Oh, Manuel, what a beautiful burro. You picked the best one."
She walked up to Clover and put her arms around the donkey's neck. "Welcome, my little one."
Manuel slapped his hand to his forehead. "What will I do with you two? This is not a new child born into the family."
Rosita just smiled. "Come in, the tamales are ready and there's beans and fresh salsa."
"I'll put the burro in the pen, then I'll be there," Manuel said. Diego's eyes followed his new friend.
At the table, Manuel said, "I'm sorry, Rosita, I had to use all our savings for getting the animal. The granjero on the ranch wouldn't come down on his price."
"Mi Corazon, I rejoice. This donkey will make work so much easier for you. We must think of a name for her."
Manuel stared at his wife. "Did you hear anything I said? Giving her a name only makes you and Diego become fonder."
"Mamá, I already gave her a name. She loves clover, so that's what I named her."
"Clover, how lovely." She stood. "Manuel, more beans?"
"Why don't you just set an extra place at the table for . . . Clover."
"Manuel, you are so funny."
"Diego has offered to feed the animal and shovel the manure."
"Diego, I'm so proud of you," his mother said.
The sun was sliding down to the earth as Diego lugged the heavy bucket from the well.
"Work hard for Papi, so he will like you too," Diego whispered in Clover's ear.
But Diego didn't have to worry. Just four days after Clover came to live with them, Manuel came into the house for dinner, wiping his forehead with his handkerchief
"That little jenny, she has heart. She pulls the plow with all her might."
Rosita turned from stirring the pot of sopa on the stove. "Oh, you mean our little Clover."
Manuel came behind her, put his arms around her waist and kissed her cheek. "I give up. Yes, Clover, our new child."
In April, Rosita went to the market in Otumbo. This time instead of walking into town, Diego scrambled up behind her on Clover's back.
After selling homemade tortillas, she brought Diego to one of his favorite places. A stand sold shaved ices with sweet syrup poured over it. Diego stood looking at the sign. So many flavors.
"Mijo, look at this." Rosita pointed at another poster tacked on the front of the stand. The Otumbo Festival to Honor Donkeys. May 1st. Costume contest. Best costumed donkey wins $500.00. The woman with the most donkey knowledge becomes Miss Burro.
Rosita's eyes shone. "Five hundred pesos. Can you imagine? Do you think we could bring Clover?"
"Do you think Papi would let us?"
Rosita stuck out her lower lip. "Probably not. Anyway, look at the winner's picture from last year. We don't have the money to dress up Clover like that."
Diego nodded sadly. "I guess I'll have the guava ice this time, Mamá."
Back home, Diego fed Clover.
'You are the best burro in all Mexico," Diego said, pressing his brown cheek against her fur. "How would you like to dress up and be in a contest?"
"He-haw, he-haw," Clover said.
Skipping toward the house, Diego could smell spices and tortillas frying. Mama was making Papi's favorite, migas, with eggs, onions and red-hot chili peppers.
After Manuel finished a large plate full, he sat back and loosened his belt.
"Mi Vida," Rosita said to Manuel, "I have a question."
Manuel belched loudly. "Yes?"
"How would you like to attend a festival in Otumbo next month?"
"What kind of festival?"
"It's to honor donkeys."
"Are you joking me?"
"No, I think we should bring Clover."
"Papi, please," Diego begged. "There are contests, lots of food and music."
Manuel groaned. "So now we are to honor Clover as well?"
"Manuel, the boy needs a little fun. He works hard. Feeds the chickens, gathers the eggs, brings in the wood . . . "
"Yes, yes, I know what he does." He put his hands out palms up on the table. "So, when is it?"
She pointed to the calendar hanging beside the fly strip. "May 1st."
Manuel turned to look. "You've already got it circled," he sputtered.
Rosita shrugged. "Well, of course, how else would I remember the date to ask you about it?"
When Diego got in bed that night he couldn't stop thinking about the contest.
He even daydreamed about it the next day while doing his early morning chores and while sitting on the hard bench at school.
He ran home afterward to find Mamá scrubbing clothes on her washboard in the tin tub.
"Mamá," he said, "Can you help me think of a costume for Clover?"
"Yes, I've been thinking about it all day. I could sew together some of the flour sacks with patterns on them for a covering for her back. You could poke holes for her ears through my old straw sun hat. The daisies will be coming out by then, you could make a daisy chain and put it around her neck, and we could put some in the hat band."
The day of the festival, Diego bounced out of his cot as the sun began getting out of his giant bed on the other side of the world. He threw on his pantalón, a shirt, and an old serape. He ran from one chore to another. He was panting by the time he came to the corral. He fed Clover, then went inside the gate and brushed her all over, paying special attention to the long hairs on the end of her tail.
Mamá came toward him as he picked daises near the dusty road. She wore a ruffly purple dress and had piled her long hair on top of her head.
"Give me a daisy too," she said, "I'll put it in my hair."
As Diego led Clover in her finery toward the house, he thought she was smiling.
Manuel came out. His boots seemed stuck to the ground. "What is this?" He shouted.
"Now Manuel," Rosita said. "This is part of the fun. They have a best-dressed burro contest."
He shook his head. "Now I've heard of everything."
"Papi," Diego said. "The first prize is five hundred pesos."
"Yes, five hundred pesos." Rosita said, "Can we go now? We might miss the crowning of the new Miss Burro or all the tacos we can eat."
The hot sun had risen high in the sky by the time they arrived. Diego rushed to the stand with the ices. Manuel dug in his pocket.
"Rosita, you get one too."
Diego tied Clover to a post and got her a bucket of water. Clover didn't look as pretty as when they started out. The daisies were hanging limp and the ends of her cape had dragged on the ground and become dirty.
He looked around at some of the other burros. One had tinkling bells tied to his short mane hairs, another had a sparkly horn on his head and silver stars on the reins.
He saw Mamá looking too.
"She won't win will she, Mamá?"
She put her arm around him and squeezed his shoulders.
"No, probably not. Why don't you take off the cloth? She's probably hot."
Manuel went to play horseshoes with some neighbor men. Mamá visited with some of the ladies from the market, while Diego joined in a sack race with boys and girls from his school. A girl named Elena knew about everything there was to know about burros. When she was chosen as Miss Burro, she jumped up and down and clapped her hands.
Miss Burro's mother was wiping tears from her eyes. "That's my daughter, Elena," she said to the onlookers. A mariachi band began playing, and dust swirled as dancers filled the plaza. Rosita's dress flared out as she twirled with Manuel. Later, the family regrouped, and they sat in the shade eating tacos.
A man shouted into a megaphone. "Now, the highlight of the festival. The parade of the donkeys to choose this year's winner of the costume contest."
"Andale, Diego. Go get Clover," his father said.
"No, Papi. We took off her covering and the daisies are all dying. He sniffed. "She doesn't look . . . she doesn't look . . . " He couldn't finish.
"Didn't we come to honor our donkey? We don't have to be in the costume contest. Go get her. Come on, muchacha," he said to Rosita, "Our family will walk in the parade."
Diego obeyed and strutted down the street holding tight to Clover's rope, but when they got even with the stage, Clover veered toward the man announcing the contest winner who sported a blond wig and a purple velvet cape.
"No, Clover," Diego said, yanking on the rope. But Clover stubbornly disobeyed and pranced toward the ramp leading toward the stage. She pulled Diego along up the ramp. Clover stood right next to the winner.
"Well, what have we here?" the announcer boomed. "Another contender? Just look at this burro. I do believe she is smiling. Perhaps we should include a prize for the Mexico's happiest burro."
He motioned for Miss Burro to come forward. "You are an expert on burros. What do you think we should do for this—" He turned to Diego. "Does your burro have a name?
"Yes, Clover," Diego said loudly.
"For Clover," the man said.
Miss Burro took the big red bow from her hair and tied it around Clover's neck. "You should give her some apples too. Burros love them."
The crowd applauded as much for Clover as they had the winning burro.
Manuel had to come and pull and push Clover off the stage, which made the children laugh.
Finally, it was time to go. Slowly, the family retraced their steps down the dusty road toward home.
"Well, Clover," Manuel said. "I did not know I picked an award-winning burro.
Rosita put her hand over her smile and winked at Diego.
Ramona Scarborough crafts many of the more than one hundred stories she's published from current topics in the news, her own and other's experiences, shameless eavesdropping, and prompts. Her story, "Clover," was inspired by a picture her talented daughter-in-law, Ramona Krueger, drew of her donkey.
Wabbit's Carat


Hof defeated hospital executive James Oscarson. He'll face Democrat Lesia Romanov in November and will be the favored candidate in the Republican-leaning Assembly district.
Hof, who wrote a book titled "The Art of the Pimp," has dubbed himself "The Trump of Pahrump," and held a rally with longtime Trump adviser Roger Stone. Hof was in the limelight in 2015, when former NBA player Lamar Odom was found unconscious at Hof's Love Ranch brothel in Crystal after a four-day, $75,000 stay.
Voters in November will be voting on closing down brothels at least one of the seven Nevada counties where they're legally operating. The question will be on the ballot in Lyon County, where Hof owns four brothels. Activists are also gathering signatures to try to get to get the measure on the ballot in Nye County, where Hof owns two more brothels in the desert outside Pahrump.

Q: Object as function param in Javascript How I can set an object as function param with default values
Example:
function objasparam({obj1: {var1: 0, var2: "something"}, obj2: {...}}) {
   console.log(obj1.var1); //the expacted log is 0 but it is undefined
}
objasparam({
   obj1:{
     var2: "other"
   }
});

even if I do it this way there is an error
function objasparam(obj = {obj1: {var1: 0, var2: "something"}, obj2: {...}}) {
   console.log(obj.obj1.var1); //the expacted log is 0 but it is undefined
}
objasparam({
   obj1:{
     var2: "other"
   }
});

A: There are two levels for defaults there:

*

*Defaulting the properties of the object when destructuring it,

*Providing a default for the object as a whole.
The first is via destructuring defaults, the second is via parameter defaults. An example is probably the best way to show this. I'll do one with just one parameter to keep it simple, but you can do it with multiple parameters as well:

function objasparam(
  // Parameter default ------------vvvv
  {prop1 = 0, prop2 = "something"} = {}
  // ----^^^--------^^^^^^^^^^^^^---- destructuring defaults
) {
  console.log(`prop1 = ${prop1}, prop2 = ${prop2}`);
}

console.log("Calling the function with no parameter at all:");
objasparam();

console.log("Calling it with {prop1: 42}:");
objasparam({prop1: 42});

console.log("Calling it with {prop2: 'answer'}:");
objasparam({prop2: 'answer'});

console.log("Calling it with {prop1: 42, prop2: 'answer'}:");
objasparam({prop1: 42, prop2: 'answer'});
/* Make the console take up the whole result pane */
.as-console-wrapper {
  max-height: 100% !important;
}

Of course, if you want to require an object gets passed in, leave of the parameter default.

function objasparam(
  {prop1 = 0, prop2 = "something"}
  // ----^^^--------^^^^^^^^^^^^^---- destructuring defaults
) {
  console.log(`prop1 = ${prop1}, prop2 = ${prop2}`);
}

try {
  console.log("Calling the function with no parameter at all:");
  objasparam(); // Fails because an object is expected
} catch (error) {
  console.error(error);
}

console.log("Calling it with {prop1: 42}:");
objasparam({prop1: 42});

console.log("Calling it with {prop2: 'answer'}:");
objasparam({prop2: 'answer'});

console.log("Calling it with {prop1: 42, prop2: 'answer'}:");
objasparam({prop1: 42, prop2: 'answer'});
/* Make the console take up the whole result pane */
.as-console-wrapper {
  max-height: 100% !important;
}

Or if you only want to provide defaults for the case where the object isn't given at all, and not if it is, leave off the destructuring defaults:

function objasparam(
  // Parameter default ------------vvvv
  {prop1, prop2} = {prop1: 0, prop2: "something"}
) {
  console.log(`prop1 = ${prop1}, prop2 = ${prop2}`);
}

console.log("Calling the function with no parameter at all:");
objasparam();

console.log("Calling it with {prop1: 42}:");
objasparam({prop1: 42});

console.log("Calling it with {prop2: 'answer'}:");
objasparam({prop2: 'answer'});

console.log("Calling it with {prop1: 42, prop2: 'answer'}:");
objasparam({prop1: 42, prop2: 'answer'});
/* Make the console take up the whole result pane */
.as-console-wrapper {
  max-height: 100% !important;
}

Finally: This can be nested, since destructuring allows nesting. Re-reading your question, I'm wondering if that's what you were trying to do:

function objasparam(
  {                                     //   vvvv--- default for if the object has no `obj1`
      obj1: {prop1 = 0, prop2 = "something"} = {},
      obj2: {prop3 = "three", prop4 = "four"} = {}
  {                                     //    ^^^^--- default for if the object has no `obj2`
  } = {} // <=== parameter default if nothing is passed
) {
  console.log(`prop1 = ${prop1}`);
  console.log(`prop2 = ${prop2}`);
  console.log(`prop3 = ${prop3}`);
  console.log(`prop4 = ${prop4}`);
}

console.log("Calling the function with no parameter at all:");
objasparam();

console.log("Calling it with {obj1: {prop1: 42}}:");
objasparam({obj1: {prop1: 42}});

console.log("Calling it with {obj2: {prop4: 'quattro'}}:");
objasparam({obj2: {prop4: 'quattro'}});

console.log("Calling it with {obj1: {prop1: 42}, obj2: {prop4: 'quattro'}}:");
objasparam({obj1: {prop1: 42}, obj2: {prop4: 'quattro'}});
/* Make the console take up the whole result pane */
.as-console-wrapper {
  max-height: 100% !important;
}

A: You should add an default object. So you are not forced to have all parameters.
If you have no arguments, the defaults exists.

const objasparam = (config) => {
  let defaults = {
    obj1: {
      var1: 0,
      var2: "something"
    },
    obj2: {
      var1: 1
    }
  }

  config = {
    ...defaults,
    ...config
  }

  // to get your obj1.var1
  console.log(config.obj1.var1);

  // complete config
  console.log(config);
}

objasparam();
objasparam({
  obj1: { var1: 22, var2: "another string"}
});
.as-console-wrapper { max-height: 100% !important }

Stephen Kimber > Freelance > Halifax Metro Colum… > Time to say thanks…
Time to say thanks to convention centre doubters
I'm guessing you won't find Philip Pacey, Beverly Miller, or the Save the View Coalition on developer Joe Ramia's Christmas card list this year.
But they should be on ours—and perhaps his too.
Last week's city council vote approving a memorandum of agreement between HRM and the province to build the new convention centre was quickly followed by Ramia's own triumphant, pre-Olympic victory lap/photo-op unveiling of his $500-million Nova Centre convention-centre-hotel-office-tower-financial-centre project.
Which means it will now almost certainly be built.
And then we shall see.
Will the project integrate into and enhance our downtown, or become another harbour-view-blocking Maritime Centre-style architectural embarrassment?
Will the convention centre lure boatloads of international conventioneers to our city, goosing the local service economy and kickstarting downtown revitalization, or will it turn into yet another taxpayer-funded white-elephant boondoggle?
What has been interesting about this two year debate is that the most significant research and most insightful—and troubling—questions about the project have been raised not by politicians or the mainstream media, but by a small rag-tag group of citizen volunteers with no personal vested interest in the outcome. People like Pacey, a retired chemistry professor, and Miller, a long-time community activist.
Their two key concerns: the traditional preservationists' fear the new Nova Centre will obstruct views of the harbour from Citadel Hill, and the business case objection that there is no business case.
It is the business case concern that is most immediately troubling. Convention centre opponents have raised serious questions about the often self-interested studies its boosters have used to justify government investment. Those questions have never been satisfactorily answered, and now we can only hope.
As for concern about preserving Halifax's historic character and protecting harbour views, it's worth reminding ourselves that much of what the all-too-dismissive-of-their-detractors convention centre boosters will now be peddling to those international convention goers—the city's historic character and walkable waterfront—only exist today because of citizen activists like Pacey and Miller.
That's worth at least a Christmas card. Even, or especially, from Joe Ramia.

These films were released in 1970
Tora! Tora! Tora!
Think of this movie like a long, slightly boring lecture in history class, only with explosions. This attempt to do for the attack on Pearl Harbor what The Longest Day did for the D-Day invasion of Normandy succeeds on so many technical levels that it's a shame that it fails to engage the audience emotionally in its subject matter.
\However, while it was initially a failure at the box office, I wonder if the film ultimately managed to recoup its budget through royalties from licensing pieces of the film as stock footage. It's hard to find a movie about World War II in the Pacific over the next twenty or thirty years that doesn't reuse at least a few shots from Tora! Tora! Tora!

Kelly's Heroes
A contemporary of both M*A*S*H and Patton, this gleefully anti-establishment World War II comedy manages to bridge both films, turning a lot of the clichés of earlier war movies on their heads while not totally disrespecting the genre. The American GIs in this film are still square-jawed and tough-as-nails, but they are also tired of war and bored out of their minds.
This entry was posted in and tagged World War II on Wednesday, May 2, 2007 by Paul McElligott.
Patton is a bigger-than-life film about a bigger-than-life figure and it will be remembered for a bigger than life gesture by its star when George C. Scott refused to accept a Best Actor Oscar for his performance. Scott didn't believe he deserved this award. The rest of the civilized world, with good reason, begged to differ.

The Twelve Chairs
[/types] nudity=0 violence=0 language=1 subject=2]
As the least well-known of Mel Brooks's early films, The Twelve Chairs stands well apart from the others. It's not a spoof of other films nor is it a balls-to-the-wall farce like The Producers. While it has its slapstick elements, it also has a kind of sweetness and elements of character drama not normally found in Brooks's filmography.

Beneath the Planet of the Apes
While this is technically a sequel to the original Planet of the Apes, it's probably best described as a half-assed remake. This film basically recycles most of the macro-plot elements of the first film, only without much of the same wit, subtlety or substance.
Charleton Heston had the good sense to want to stay far away from this movie and only agreed to appear when the producers acceded to his request to kill his character and end the film in such a way to preclude any further sequels.

Anyone who pops in their DVD of Robert Altman's movie adaptation of Richard Hooker's novel expecting to see a two-hour version of the TV show is in for a rude shock. The long-running series starring Alan Alda is related to this movie only by title, character names and setting. Stylistically, they are very different animals altogether.
The CBS sitcom, for its groundbreaking subject matter, is still a traditional "workplace" comedy at heart, very much in the tradition of The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The TV Frank Burns has far more in common with Ted Baxter than with the religious fanatic portrayed by Robert Duvall in the movie.
The movie version is a choatic, anarchic and hilarious celebration of insanity as an antidote for insanity. Continue reading →
