David Bentley Hart Reviews Eugene McCarraher's *The Enchantments of Mammon*
And he loves it. Here is a taste of Hart's review of McCarraher's new book:
The Enchantments of Mammon is a magnificent book. It is, before all else, a sheer marvel of patient scholarship, history on a grand scale and in the best tradition of historical writing: a comprehensive account of the rise and triumph of capitalism in the modern age, not only as an economics, but also as our most pervasive and dominant system of ultimate values. But the book is far more than that. It is also a work of profound moral insight: a searing spiritual critique of a vision of reality that reduces everything mysterious, beautiful, fragile, and potentially transcendent in human experience to instances of—or opportunities for—acquisition and personal power, and that seeks no end higher than the transformation of creation's substantial goods into the lifeless abstraction of monetary value. It is, moreover, a work delightfully subversive of the standard story of how this vision of things progressively became the very shape of the world we all now share (or, I suppose it would be better to say, the world we do not really share at all).
In McCarraher's telling, capitalism as it has taken shape over the past few centuries is not the product of any kind of epochal "disenchantment" of the world (the Reformation, the scientific revolution, what have you). Far less does it represent the triumph of a more "realist" and "pragmatic" understanding of private wealth and civil society. Instead, it is another kind of religion, one whose chief tenets may be more irrational than almost any of the creeds it replaced at the various centers of global culture. It is the coldest and most stupefying of idolatries: a faith that has forsaken the sacral understanding of creation as something charged with God's grandeur, flowing from the inexhaustible wellsprings of God's charity, in favor of an entirely opposed order of sacred attachments. Rather than a sane calculation of material possibilities and human motives, it is in fact an enthusiast cult of insatiable consumption allied to a degrading metaphysics of human nature. And it is sustained, like any creed, by doctrines and miracles, mysteries and revelations, devotions and credulities, promises of beatitude and threats of dereliction. McCarraher urges us to stop thinking of the modern age as the godless sequel to the ages of faith, and recognize it instead as a period of the most destructive kind of superstition, one in which acquisition and ambition have become our highest moral aims, consumer goods (the more intrinsically worthless the better) our fetishes, and impossible promises of limitless material felicity our shared eschatology. And so deep is our faith in these things that we are willing to sacrifice the whole of creation in their service. McCarraher, therefore, prefers to speak not of disenchantment, but of "misenchantment"—spiritual captivity to the glamor of an especially squalid god.

What is the Correct Angle of Theoretical Approach in Understanding Reality Via Mystical Experience?
Date: August 16, 2021Author: breathwork-science 0 Comments
By Dr Steve Minett, Phd
In a recent online discussion on Consciousness I was struck by a description of reductive science (what I would call 'Cart-Tonist' or logical positive science) that was presented as being "…stuck in the sludge at the bottom". This powerful metaphor poses two challenges for people like me who want to reform the ontology of science, in particular in connection with an abstract subject such as Consciousness.
The first challenge is, how can we liberate science from the sludge and enable it to rise to the sun-lit surface of the water? How, in other words, can we make the ship of theory buoyant enough not to sink back down into the sludge? The second challenge, as I see it, is to ensure that our ship of theory, now happily and productively sailing along the surface, is weighty and sturdy enough not to float off and disappear into the endless depths of mystical sky/space? In yet another metaphor, these problems resemble the dilemma of returning astronauts as they approach the earth's atmosphere: they have to chart a trajectory which will avoid the twin disasters of a) cashing to destruction by re-entering too steeply and b) approaching at too shallow an angle, bouncing off the atmosphere and being lost for ever in deep space. (Please forgive my collection of extended metaphors, but it seems a good way in which to express such elusive ideas.) This paper is an attempt to answer these metaphorically posed questions.
In plainer language, I see these issues as problems of theory formation: how can we formulate scientific theories avoiding the two unproductive 'dead-ends' of logical positivist 'sludge' at one end of the spectrum, and elaborate mystical 'waffle' at the other? What I'm going to suggest is that the 'sludge' end of the theory formation spectrum is represented by the traditional scientific approach, known as 'induction'. As we shall see, induction has been pretty thoroughly discredited, though still not as yet 'officially' superseded. The much greater danger for would-be reformers of science lies at the opposite extreme; namely, endless mystical 'waffle'. Where, then, can we find the happy and productive mid-point? In other words (to slip back into 'metaphor-speak'), what can keep our ship of theory happily and productively sailing along the sun-lit surface? My main answer here is; 'publicly accessible understanding'. The rest of this paper will consist essentially of an unfolding of this conclusion.
The Problem of Induction
Let's start with what's become known as the 'problem of induction'. According to the physicist David Deutsch, induction has essentially been the prevailing approach to theory formulation since the beginnings of modern science. Again, according to him: "In the inductivist theory of scientific knowledge, observations play two roles: first, in the discovery of scientific theories, and second, in their justification. A theory is said to be discovered by 'extrapolating' or 'generalising' the results of observations. Then, if large numbers of observations form to the theory, and none deviates from it, the theory is supposed to be justified – made more believable, probable or reliable." (Deutsch, 97, p.59)
In the Twentieth Century the inductive approach was taken to its extreme by the logical positivist and behaviourist schools. These were explicitly against formulating theories, especially 'grand theories' or ontologies. In other words, they didn't consider 'understanding' or 'insight' important for science. Rather their goal was to develop mathematical models which could generate successful predictions. This, in their view, was the true purpose of science because the ability to successfully predict events and behaviour provided the power to control them: it enhanced human mastery over the environment. The logical positivist approach to science maybe reached its heyday in the 1950s with the popular slogan, "Let the facts speak for themselves!"
So, what's wrong with induction? The philosopher Bertrand Russell used a story about a chicken to illustrate this: "(To avoid any possible misunderstanding, let me stress that this was a metaphorical, anthropomorphic chicken, representing a human being trying to understand the regularities of universe.) The chicken noticed that the farmer came every day to feed it. It predicted that the farmer would continue to bring food every day. Inductivists think that the chicken had 'extrapolated' its observations into a theory, and that each feeding time added justification to that theory… Then, one day the farmer came and wrung the chicken's neck." (Deutsch, '97, p.60)
Deutsch comments on induction that perhaps its worst flaw; "… is the sheer non sequitur that a generalised prediction is tantamount to a new theory." And he concludes that: "The inductive extrapolation of observations to form new theories is not possible! On the other hand, Deutsch argues that philosophers of science (and perhaps many scientists themselves) still yearn for the inductive justification of theory formation. He says about them that they no longer believe that induction can provide such a justification; "… yet they have an induction-shaped gap in their scheme of things, just as religious people who have lost their faith suffer from a 'God-shaped gap' in their scheme of things. But in my opinion there is little difference between having an X-shaped gap in one's scheme of things and believing in X." (Deutsch, 97, p.143) The philosopher Karl Popper claimed to have solved the problem of induction by asserting, essentially, that theories are generated by conjectures of the human imagination. Albert Einstein was, I think, saying much the same thing when he insisted that the important thing in science was to ask the 'right' questions. As he added, once a question has been asked, it's fairly easy to calculate an answer. This position (which is in practise widely accepted) opens a theoretical space between induction and mysticism, which we'll examine in detail below.
Understanding Reality Via Mystical Experience
But first let's look at the other end of the spectrum of theory formation: mystical experience as a means of comprehending reality. Let me start by revealing that I regard myself as having had several episodes of mystical experience. These occurred mainly in breathwork sessions, between the mid-90s and the mid-2000s. So, I'm approaching the topic of mysticism not entirely from a theoretical point of view, but also on the basis of some personal experience. Given this, I have developed a particular, personal theory of mystical experience: I believe that it is intimately related to the marginal capacity of human beings to temporarily generate a 'super-organism'. Explicitly, I believe that mystical experience is what 'flips the switch' between our egotistical 'chimp' nature and our 'bee', super-organism nature: The social psychologist Jonathan Haidt argues that we are 90% chimp and 10% bee; "… sometimes we really do transcend self-interest and devote ourselves to helping others, or our groups." (Haidt, Jonathan, 'The Righteous Mind', 2012, Penguin, p.296/297) In order to promote the switch to (what O.N.Wilson called) our 'eusocial' mode, genuine mystical experience needs to induce a sense of self-transcendence, hyper-compassion and awe in the face of the wonders of nature. (I'd like to suggest that this 'super-organism' mode is what Karl Marx described as our 'species being'.) What I'm suggesting here is that this 'eusocial-inducing' mode of mystical experience is not only an essential component of our human incarnation, but also has an evolutionary purpose.
On the other hand, I also believe that our capacity for mystical experience makes us vulnerable to self-deception and/or exploitation by others: I have myself encountered many 'false gurus' in the course of my life. As a specific example, I can identify Leonard Orr, who is generally recognised as the father of the 'Rebirthing' school of breathwork. For fifty years Orr promoted the doctrine of physical immortality, without providing any evidence of theory of why this would be possible. He simply claimed that he had 'obtained' this knowledge during mystical breathwork induced experiences. I attended one of his workshops during which he claimed that most forms of negative behaviour were motivated by the fear of death. During the question period, I asked him; "Isn't the belief in physical immortality a manifestation of the fear of death?" I can't remember the details of his answer, but it was definitely neither clear nor fact-based. But perhaps the definitive answer is that Orr himself is now dead. I can mention as another example of a false guru, Sai Baba. There is now a lot of convincing evidence that he was an active paedophile, preying on children, whilst convicting the parents of his extraordinary qualities by 'manifesting' watches out of thin air. At the extreme end of this exploitative, or 'toxic' mysticism, we can find dangerous cults which are often associated with overtly criminal behaviour: I also had indirect personal experience of the so called 'Micmac' cult, which left a trail of deception, fraud and abuse across Northern Europe in the 1990s. Their leader 'Man' stole the identity of a Canadian indigenous tribe, both to provide their name but also to claim that he had inherited their ancient wisdom that was known only to a few 'chosen' people. There's also the more extreme example of David Koresh, who was largely responsible for the Waco massacre and, perhaps worst of all, the mass suicides engineered by Jim Jones.
Two Criteria to Constrain Mystical Theories
To return to our theme, in the wake of Popper's work, I think we can safely leave aside induction as a viable methodology for theory formulation. So we are left with mysticism, at the other end of the theory formulation spectrum. Given the existence of 'toxic mysticism' and that mystical experience, it can be argued, is at the extreme end of Popper's notion of imaginative conjecture as a basis for theory formulation, how can we assess the role of mystical experience in relation to the formulation of scientific theories? Let me suggest two criteria by means of which mystical theories can be constrained to remain within science:
Congruence with the current empirical findings and observations of experimental science. This doesn't mean a single or a few anomalous findings, but a significant accumulation of empirical findings and observations contrary to theory, paradigm or ontology: such positions are not to be abandoned lightly!
'Publicly accessible understanding' (see below for an exposition as to the meaning of this phrase)
So, firstly, let's consider some examples of theories which are incongruent with the current empirical findings and observations of experimental science. This seems to be by far the easier criterion to clarify with examples. The most obvious examples here would be the miracles as described in the bible, if they can be described as 'theories'. Perhaps collectively they might be called the Christian theory of miracles. A prominent example is the notion of the immaculate conception, i.e. the claim that Christ was conceived without Mary engaging in sexual intercourse (including ejaculation). Modern biological and medical science reject this proposition as impossible. Despite this, the immaculate conception is still part of the Catholic Creed, in which all Catholics are supposed to pledge unwavering belief. (A curious nuance here is that a Catholic theologian, presumably a Jesuit, tried to circumvent this scientific prohibition by suggesting that the arch-angle Gabriel had poured God's sperm into Mary's ear. Unfortunately for Catholicism, I think it fairly clear that according to modern medical science, even this unlikely tactic would not result in a success conception without the need for intercourse!) Similarly, the biblical miracles of 'walking on water' and 'converting the water to wine' can also be described as unscientific according to this criteria. On the other hand, Christ's 'healing miracles' may not be so easily dismissed as unscientific, given what we are now learning about the power of the placebo effect.
A second large group of unscientific theories, according to this criteria, can be loosely described as 'crack-pot' ideas, such as anti-gravity devices and perpetual motion or energy machines.
What does 'publicly accessible understanding' mean?
So, let's move on to consider exactly what the phrase, 'publicly accessible understanding' mean? This is a lot less obvious and straightforward than the first criteria and it will require a lot more theoretical 'heavy-lifting' to attempt to arrive at an answer. Given this, I'm going to use, as an example of mystical thinking, the views of a participant in an on-line discussion group on consciousness which I organised. When he initially approached the group, we exchanged lengthy emails expressing our respective points of view. It soon became clear to me that he based his theories on what he referred to as 'mystical experiences'. Let me from the outset state that I regarded his mystical experience based views as violating the criteria 'publicly accessible understanding', and, therefore, impossible to classify as scientific theories. I will try to demonstrate how and why I arrived at this conclusion:
Firstly he introduced me to a concept which he called 'data energy'. This both interested and disturbed me because in my ontology of consciousness I make a clear distinction between information processing and 'energy processing' in the brain. I'm positing a ubiquitous 'feeling energy' in the universe. Both Alfred North Whitehead and Nicholas Humphrey base their claims of two separate and distinct channels of perception, which I interpret as based on this distinction. When organisms process data from their environments into information, they use this to generate intelligent (but non-conscious) potential behaviour, via the organism's internal algorithms. When (in my view) they process feeling energy, the result is subjective, qualic experience. In other words, consciousness, which the organisms can use to guide the algorithmically generated potential behaviour, thus providing flexibility of response. My question regarding the concept of 'data energy' was therefore; when organisms process this, what is the result? His seemingly wanted to merge data and energy, whereas my version, which keeps them distinct, provides enormous explanatory power regarding the functioning of organisms.
A second immediate issue between us was his definition of consciousness, which he expressed as "sensing Consciousness (with a capital C) as the Totality of Existence, embracing the totality of human experience, from the mystical to the mundane". To me this was clearly a panpsychist theory. In my teaching of consciousness I've experience problems in trying to introduce; "… the concept of 'panpsychism' (actually Whitehead's 'pan-experientialism'). Someone always produces the standard objection to panpsychism; 'so, you're saying that a rock is as conscious as I am?!' So for me, explaining this clearly requires a succinct definition of consciousness. To have a definition that is so comprehensive, amounting essentially to 'consciousness is everything and everything is consciousness', makes it very difficult to provide the distinctions necessary for understanding such a wide-ranging consciousness concept. For me the feeling energy (of which the entire universe is composed) is merely the 'raw material' of consciousness. In order to be transformed into sentient consciousness, it has to be processed by all organisms to various levels of complexity, human consciousness being the most complex, and in humans, consciousness is hugely elaborated by language and culture. In our discussion I asked for a brief, ideally single-sentence, definition of consciousness, which I was denied 'since it wasn't the right time'. (A comment I have heard before in similar situations in New Age groups).
To be clear, I'm not suggesting that this man was a con man trying to start a dangerous cult, but I do regard mystical views as violating the criteria of 'publicly accessible understanding'. To clarify what I mean by this, I'd like to invoke an analogy with modern politics: in Western democracies professional politicians have become masters of the evasive answer. Famously, they will never respond simply and clearly to a direct question. This pretty ubiquitous habit among our leaders has lead to a growing malaise, characterised by cynicism and a growing disillusionment with democratic institutions.
To return to the scientific context, this, of course, would be a matter of indifference to logical positivists; they don't see any value in theories or ontologies which can lead to scientific understanding, because their don't believe that scientific understanding is important. Consequently, effective dialogue, including the asking and transparent answering of direct questions, leading to 'publicly accessible understanding' is again a matter of indifference to them.
So, to conclude, once theory formulation in science has been expelled from the false security of induction, where does it stop on the perhaps inevitable tendency toward what can be described as the abyss of mystical waffle, expressed in a jumble of evasive and confusing words. (I would personally suggest that many theories in contemporary physics have already fallen into this abyss.) So my critique of the work I have exemplified above, is that it ignores the two criteria which define scientific theories, and therefore drifts over the border of science and into the hinterland of toxic mysticism. I'd also like to suggest that the toxicity of this position is reflected in its incongruence with what I call above our 'biological' capacity for mysticism: To make large claims of personal achievements in scientific theory, such as "… the creative power of Life has enabled me to solve the ultimate problem of human learning, known as the Theory of Everything", as I was told in my online discussion group, is simply not enough. Instead I argue that genuine mystical experiences need to induce a sense of self-transcendence, [and] hyper-compassion …" To simply make bold statements of mystical theories in this expresses the opposite of these humanly eusocial characteristics. A more balanced approach is needed if we are to make the ship of theory buoyant enough not to sink down into the sludge of either side of these arguments.
Keywords; consciousness, mystical experiences, induction, science

Apple users have fallen prey to ransomware for the first time ever. The 'KeRanger' malware appeared hidden in the popular BitTorrent application, Transmission. Users' Macs were infected upon downloading the latest copy.
A ransomware is malicious code, like any other type of malware. The way it works is usually by hiding inside a program one may hastily download, irrespective of the risks. A message then appears, telling the user all or part of their files have been encrypted, and the only way to decrypt them is by paying a ransom – usually in digital currency, which is difficult to trace.
An attack of this sort struck computers in a US hospital in Hollywood recently, forcing it to pay a $17,000 ransom to regain control of its systems. The hackers had originally demanded $3.7 million.
(…)Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have created the first scalable quantum computer that could make current data encryption methods obsolete with its ability to factor very large numbers. The new device uses only five atoms.
Despite being handed hundreds of millions in taxpayers' cash, British spooks are losing the cyberwar, a top GCHQ director has acknowledged.
Alex Dewdney, who is head of the Communications Electronics Security Group (CESG) branch of GCHQ, told an audience in the US that UK intelligence is lagging behind.


Electricity is one of the most wonderful discoveries of the world and, is a foundation for today's developments and its equipments.
On the contrary, nothing much has been done to protect from the ill effects of electricity, anything in excess to the required amount, proves to be a hazard. Yes!... You would understand that the same electricity which is very useful to mankind when consumed with proper safety measures, however proves fatal, when released in large quantity uncontrolled without providing proper safety measures.
No Major breakthrough has been done in inventing a gadget which will properly 'Earth' the excessive release of current. Not only high voltage currents, Even the gadgets using small voltages of electricity can be harmful if they are properly not grounded.
One of the most important and simplest thing that is required to handle electricity safely is "EARTHING / GROUNDING" as we have said earlier, Nothing much has been done to improve the quality of earthing from the past 165 years.
So we are here now with our new innovated product safe Earthing Electrodes and Mineral filling compound "UES" Brand, which is all set to revolutionize the world of earthing.
The Spirit of perseverance has served us well in the last few decades, reason why our manufacturing unit is one of the largest of its kind in the World of Earthing.
Since 1996 our company's R&D has invested heavy amount and time to develop our international standard "UES" Brand Earthing Electrode and Mineral Filling Compound, to suite electricity users all around the globe.
The Innovative product manufactured by us under the Brand of "UES" bearing the firm name as, UNIVERSAL EARTHING SYSTEMS PRIVATE LIMITED, Chennai, India.
We are the only Manufacturer and marketer of 'UES' Brand Safe Earthing Electrode in G.I., Copper Strips along with Mineral Filling Compound.
We do not have any other manufacturing unit in India.

Q: A connection attempt failed [ASP .Net Core, IIS] I host the ASP.NET Core (3.0) Web Application in IIS. The application works in my development environment and also in a docker image inside a linux machine.
Now I tried to host the application as well in IIS and now struggle with the following error message, when I try to call a external REST API:

A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.

I'm quite sure this is a proxy problem. Regarding this I tried different solutions, but nothing worked for me:
Added ForwardedHeadersOptions
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    services.Configure<ForwardedHeadersOptions>(options =>
    {
        options.ForwardedHeaders = ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedFor | ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedProto;
    });
}

Added UseCertificateForwarding before UseAuthorization
   public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
   {
        app.UseCertificateForwarding();
        app.UseAuthorization();
   }

Added the Proxy in the web.config file
<system.net>
    <defaultProxy>
      <proxy
        proxyaddress="http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXXX"
        bypassonlocal="true"
      />
    </defaultProxy>
</system.net>

Does anyone has an idea, what I can try next?

TIG or MIG Welding – Which is Best?
When running a fabrication, manufacturing, or construction business, welding is sometimes necessary. Not only are there are many kinds of metals to weld-some easy, others near impossible-but there are also different welding terminologies. For example, terms like "TIG and MIG welding" are so similar that they are often confused.
MIG welding uses metal inert gas, while TIG welding uses tungsten inert gas. The entire process is actually called gas metal arc welding or GMAW.
Both methods utilize an electric arc and inert gas to shield the arc and keep the welding area clean of contaminants. However, there are important differences. For example, with TIG methods, a tungsten electrode is what provides the electric power for the arc. The electrode is not consumable and the welder usually uses a separate welding rod in the process.
On the other hand, MIG methods utilize electrode materials which are consumable and become part of the weld. The electrode provides electricity for the arc, and acts as a consumable welding rod at the same time. It is continually fed through a spool of wire that is usually made from copper-coated steel.
MIG welding is much easier to perform than TIG. It doesn't require the same degree of skill and can be done with one hand. In fact, this process is used by many welding robots and automated welding systems today.
WHAT KINDS OF METALS CAN YOU WELD?
Both methods are commonly used to weld metals-such as thin sheets of stainless steel and aluminum. For extremely thin sheets however, TIG welding is the preferred method. MIG methods are commonly used on thicker metals like structural steel.
TIG methods are typically used for thin metals because the power can be lowered considerably so the welder does not penetrate all the way through the material.
However, if you are interested in speed, MIG welding wins out. It is a much faster process because the electrode is fed automatically. It will not take long to weld several components of a structure.
Regardless of which welding method is selected, a lot of money can be saved when choosing to outsource some of your welding needs. At Avon Lake Sheet Metal Company, we offer MIG, TIG, and spot welding in addition to our fabrication services. We also provide CNC machining, 3D modeling, and design services.
Visit us today at www.avonlakesheetmetal.com or call (440) 968-5014 to discover what we can do for you.

If your business requires welding, a few different welding methods may need to be used. For example, TIG welding is only used in certain situations, and there are several factors to take into consideration when deciding whether or not to use this particular method.
Furthermore, GTAW is a better alternative to torch welding because it doesn't require as much expertise. However, it still takes considerable skill and knowledge to weld properly. GTAW also tends to be effective because the electric arc provides better control over the process than a torch. But since there are so many different options, it takes a considerable amount of practice and training to get it right.
Cleanliness is absolutely essential if you want to create the strongest possible weld. A special brush should be used on aluminum and not for any other metals. It is best to keep one brush for stainless steel and another for aluminum, and it is especially important not to use brushes that were previously used on rusty steel or iron.
This is a common mistake and can be extremely frustrating. Once the tungsten enters the puddle, it becomes contaminated and the process needs to be stopped. In order to restart the entire process, the arc assembly must be dismantled, and the tungsten must be grinded down. If the welding process is not stopped, the arc will not stay in one place during the weld.
Because TIG welding requires special equipment, training, practice, and knowhow, a professional fabrication company should be considered. They will not only save you a great deal of time and headaches, but they can also increase your shop efficiency.

Commercial and industrial projects that require HVAC contracting services can involve a huge investment, one that requires research before hiring an HVAC contractor. If your air conditioning system needs servicing, replacements, or repairs, there are a few things you should know before hiring an HVAC contractor.
As well, we have worked with our sister company, Northern Refrigeration Systems, for more than 40 years. Our combined capabilities and experience enable us to fulfill any HVAC project with speed and efficiency.
Without insurance and bonding, you will not be compensated for any items or property that damaged by the company. In addition to asking for insurance proof, you may also verify the documents with the proper licensing officials.
Any HVAC provider that performs work for you should be properly certified. Non-certified providers can do the work, but lack the certification to back up their skills. To avoid problems, always hire certified providers.
An estimate will give you a clear idea of your project's cost. When comparing estimates, it's not necessarily the lowest estimate that equals the best option – although it could be. The quality and track record of the company and its experience handling your type of project successfully are also very important.
Do not be talked out of a purchase by a company that does not carry the brand you want. In fact, if you are set on a certain type of brand, only receive bids from companies that carry it. Otherwise, you will waste both the company's time and your time.
Many HVAC contractors specialize in selling only one brand of HVAC system, which can have its pros and cons. If you use a reputable contractor, you can rely on the company to have a good knowledge of the products they sell. More often times than not, these contractors have had some training, through the manufacturer, on how to install the system and on how the actual unit operates.
Doing business with our team at Avon Lake Sheet Metal for your HVAC needs can make a significant difference in the experience, service and product you receive.

Retro doesn't always mean outdated, uncool, or passé. Sometimes the furniture you've been hiding in your basement or stockroom for the last twenty years, thinking it's no longer "in" can surprisingly add a hint of style to your kitchen and dining area. Applying vintage and old school decoration can give your place a unique vibe. Because retro interiors involve playing with lots of colors, patterns, and accent pieces, all it takes is creativity and resourcefulness to pull off a well-designed home.
One factor that makes retro interiors pop is the use of patterns in floors or walls. It makes your space look fun and vibrant. Patterns can be incorporated through tiles for flooring or splashboards. These look great, especially when matched with plain colored walls and fixtures. Usual retro patterns include geometric and checkered prints.
Want more inspiration and interior styling tips?
Retro design is known for its use of electric and bold colors like orange, red, blue, and purple. These work well when contrasted with lighter shades to achieve a well-balanced color scheme. However, if bold colors don't align with your taste, you can always opt for lighter hues such as light pastels which still achieve a bakery-like retro feel.
Add vintage decors to your space to accentuate the retro look. Perhaps you can display your reto-style kitchen appliances, hang old prints and photos, and showcase your antiques and classic glassware. Pair these vintage items with your modern fixtures to create the perfect balance between old and new.
Use wall shelves to display your tableware sets like Pyrex bowls, vintage cups, and decorative plates from the past. Carefully curate which to display to achieve your retro inspired kitchen and dining. Continuously add to your collection by visiting thrift shops, antique stores, and garage sales.
Decorating a space to make it look retro or vintage doesn't equate with going over the top with renovation and redecoration. Sometimes, the key to pulling off a themed space is having the eye for details. For instance, use tarnished silver or classic glass for kitchen cabinet knobs. These pair well with most colors especially white. Also, the key to detailed interiors is choosing appropriate lighting. Consider using pendants with vintage and retro designs, which adds a fun yet dramatic feel to your kitchen and dining space.
To give your space depth and a contemporary feel, mix glossy and matte finishes. Also, mix plain and patterned textile for more style and character. This simple tip gives your place a balanced feel, which appears clean and stylish.
To tie the look of your whole retro inspired kitchen together, try incorporating a diner set-up. You can use your existing bar or countertop and simply add retro looking bar stools to give it the diner ambiance. This set-up is perfect for meal preparations and also serves as an eating area.

Congress could depose IRS whistleblower who alleged interference in audit of Trump's taxes
By Lauren Fox, CNN
CNN — The Democratic-led House Ways and Means Committee is weighing whether to depose a whistleblower who alleged political interference in the presidential audit program, according to a source familiar with their thinking.
No decisions have been made, according to the source, as the committee is considering how it could affect ongoing litigation for President Donald Trump's tax returns.
While the focus in Washington has been on the whistleblower complaint at the center of the impeachment probe, House Ways and Means staff has been working to verify another whistleblower complaint from the summer that there was political influence exerted over the Presidential audit program.
According to a source familiar with the committee's work, there are ongoing discussions now about whether to bring that individual in for an interview in an executive session of the committee.
Another factor Democrats are weighing is that any deposition would include both Republican and Democratic members who could grill the individual. The original complaint centered around the presidential audit program, which is not enshrined in law, but is a precedent that every President and Vice President's tax returns are audited when they assume office.
The House is not the only chamber the whistleblower has communicated with. According to a source familiar, the person also had been in contact with the Senate Finance Committee. The whistleblower has communicated with both Republican and Democratic staffers on the committee and was asked to come back for a follow up after raising serious concerns. The Washington Post was the first to report that the whistleblower had spoken to staff of Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon, the top Democrat on Senate Finance. In a statement to CNN, Wyden declined to confirm his staff had spoken with the whistleblower.
"I am aware of public reports of a whistleblower complaint related to the mandatory audit program of the President and Vice President," Wyden said. "Because any discussion of this matter may implicate section 6103 privacy requirements or whistleblower protections, I cannot comment further on the matter."
The House's interest in potentially deposing the whistleblower comes as House Intelligence investigators are focused on their impeachment inquiry. A source familiar with Ways and Means' activities emphasized that their investigation isn't connected in any way to the House's overall impeachment push. Still, the interest by both Senate and House investigators in the IRS whistleblower reveals that the issue isn't going away.
Details about the Presidential Audit program are scarce, and the program is at the center of the House Ways and Means case. The committee's chairman, Rep. Richard Neal of Massachusetts, has argued he needs the President's tax returns to ensure the Presidential audit program is working without political influence.

All About Network Security, Firewalls,…
Top-notch network security is necessary for today's digital landscape, where everything is dependent on technology. While a number of different cybersecurity solutions and anti-malware programs are available to form a network security plan, a good firewall must be used as an extra wall of defense. The global network security market is projected to reach USD 22.8 billion by 2024, according to a Markets and Markets report.
EC-Council University offers courses that provide in-depth knowledge about network security, firewalls, and VPNs. Candidates who wish to learn more about it can choose this course to study more.
What is Network Security?
Network security is a group of practices and policies that are put in to practice monitoring and prevent misuse, unauthorized access, modification of a computer network, and other related resources. Network security is designed to safeguard the integrity and usability of a network.
Multiple layers of defense are combined to design network security. Each layer of security implements controls and policies. This way, only authorized users can access the network resources, and all the malicious users are blocked out.
What Are the Types of Network Security?
The transformation of our lives, work, learning, and more have changed because of digitalization. To deliver secure services to its customers, every organization wants to protect its network. With the help of network security, they can defend themselves against any attack. Here are the different types of network security that are used by both individuals and organizations:
Antivirus and antimalware software
What Is a Firewall?
A network security system that scans all incoming and outgoing network traffic is called a firewall. A firewall decides either to allow or to block out specific traffic based on the defined set of security rules. They act as the first line of defense in the network security system and are responsible for establishing a barrier between secured and controlled internal networks. A firewall can be available both in the form of hardware and software.
What Are the Types of Firewalls?
The different types of firewalls that an organization can choose from are:
Proxy Firewall
To protect a private network's resources, the proxy firewall flags out messages at the application layer. Add-on functions like content caching and security allow for direct connections between internal and external networks are also included.
Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW)
The Next-Generation Firewall combines traditional firewall technology with additional functionality. It has been designed to block modern-day cyber threats like application-layer attack and advanced malware.
Stateful Inspection Firewall
A firewall that allows and blocks traffic based on port, state, and protocol. It monitors all the activities of a system from the opening of a connection until its closing.
Unified Threat Management (UTM) Firewall
A unified threat management firewall combines the activities of a stateful inspection firewall with antivirus and intrusion prevention. This firewall is ideal for small- to medium-sized enterprises.
Threat-Focused NGFW
A threat-focused NGFW firewall includes all the capabilities of a traditional NGFW. It offers an advanced threat detection system with remediation. With this firewall's help, one can quickly react to attacks, detect evasive or suspicious activity, and more.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is the extension of a private network that enables users to have online privacy and anonymity. This is done by creating a private network across a public internet connection. VPNs mask the internet protocol (IP) address of a user so that their online activities are virtually untraceable. With a VPN services' help, a secure and encrypted connection can be established to provide greater privacy.
Benefits of a VPN
Hides private information.
Access region-blocked services.
Avoid bandwidth-throttling.
Escape data-throttling.
Provides access to regional sports coverage unavailable in your location.
Avoid censorship when traveling abroad.
Offers cheaper long-distance telephone charges.
Provides network scalability.
Offers cheaper leased-line alternatives.
Reduces support costs.
Study with EC-Council University
EC-Council University offers many courses in cybersecurity for aspirants who wish to join the cyber workforce. The university offers bachelor's and master's degrees in cybersecurity and several Graduate Certificate Programs (GCPs). The Bachelor of Science in Cyber Security degree offers a course that provides learning in network security, firewalls, and VPNs.
The CIS 403 Network Security, Firewalls, and VPNs provides a unique and in-depth look at the major business challenges and threats.
Q. What is cryptography and network security?
Ans. The study of secure communications techniques that permit only the sender and authorized recipient of a message to view its contents is known as cryptography. The use of this technique in network security provides the much-needed confidentiality that is required for the protection of data.
Q. What is a Web Application Firewall?
Ans. A web application firewall is a kind of application firewall that protects web applications from different types of application-layer attacks. Examples of such attacks are SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), cookie poisoning, and more.

December 4, 2015 – Mister Journalism: "Reading, Sharing, Discussing, Learning"
The Michigan House Workforce and Talent Development Committee heard testimony Thursday on legislation related to the state's promise zones as they prepare to formulate a recommendation for the full House, where representatives could vote on two bills in the near future.
The testimony concerned Senate Bill 0539 and Senate Bill 0540, which seek to expand a statewide program launched in 2008. That program aims to cover some or all of the costs of in-state tuition at public schools after financial aid awards with a combination of state and private funds. The bills propose five additional school districts be labeled as promise zones, making a total of 15.
Anna Mooney, deputy chief of staff for Sen. Goeff Hansen (R–Hart), and Brianna McGarry, a legislative assistant for Sen. Jim Ananich (D–Flint), delivered the testimony Thursday on behalf of the two senators, who each sponsored one of the bills.
The Michigan State Treasury supervises the establishment of the promise zones, which currently serve students in 10 high-poverty school districts. Students' eligibility for these scholarships, as well as the amount they are each eligible to receive, often depend on how long they have attended school in the district, and could also be contingent on factors such as college GPA.
"You and I didn't choose to be victims in the Age of Terror," say Wayne-o, as he kicks off the NRA response to the San Bernardino event. And you can be sure that as the NRA continues to ramp up their end-of-year fundraising drive they will continue to remind current and prospective members of the connection between the 2nd Amendment and the necessity to defend ourselves from foreign or home-grown terrorists whose attacks Obama and his muddle-headed bunch can't or won't do anything about.
LANSING, MI (WHTC) – A third hearing on Michigan's academically failing schools has been scheduled by state Senate Education Committee Chairman Phil Pavlov for next Wednesday morning.
Education reporters across the nation reported breathlessly that Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan were "giving" $45 billion to education and public health. They did not get the nuances of the financial transaction behind the $45 billion "gift" of the Zuckerbergs, but writers familiar with the business of philanthropy did. Jesse Eisinger of ProPublica writes in the business section of the New York Times that the Zuckerberg pledge will actually help Zuckerberg, because the money will go to a Limited Liability Corporation that he controls, not a foundation. Mark Zuckerberg did not donate $45 billion to charity. You may have heard that, but that was wrong.
Has the Gates Foundation moved on past the disappointment of creating national standards and national tests to the Next Big Thing: putting all students online?
In 2014, women who were full-time wage and salary workers had median usual weekly earnings of $719. Women's median earnings were 83 percent of those of male full-time wage and salary workers ($871).
Median weekly earnings for women were highest between the ages of 35 and 64. In 2014, there was little or no difference in the earnings of 35- to 44-year-olds ($781), 45- to 54-year-olds ($780), and 55- to 64-year-olds ($780). For men, earnings peaked between the ages of 45 and 64, with 45- to 54-year-olds ($1,011) and 55- to 64-year-olds ($1,021) having similar earnings. Young women and men ages 16 to 24 had the lowest earnings ($451 and $493, respectively).

about the water crisis at the event, which also included Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha of Hurley Medical Center and State Senator Jim Ananich (D-Flint). If you missed the event, you can listen to audio here, and get Jack Lessenberry's perspective.
That the richest 20% of citizens most likely own something like 60% of the wealth and that the bottom 40% most likely own about 10% of the wealth in this country.
The reality is strikingly different.
>>> The top 20% of US households own more than 84% of the wealth.
>>> The bottom 40% of US households combine for a paltry 0.3%.
One set of family members… the Walton family, for example, has more wealth than 42% of all American families combined.
Such striking income disparity creates all forms of other inequalities … educational inequality, social inequality, racial inequality, mental, physical and emotional health inequality and on and on.
I don't think this is what the Founding Fathers envisioned for our destiny as a nation.

How do I use Pulse as part of my LinkedIn Social Media Strategy?
Read on to see the ways you can take advantage of LinkedIn Pulse in your event marketing.
By using Pulse to publish informative, useful articles under either your name or the event's name, you position yourself as an expert in your field. You can interview experts, use authoritative sources, and add statistics to give your credibility a boost. For the Conference of Metallurgists, we used LinkedIn Pulse to share interviews with a diverse group of participants in hopes of encouraging potential newcomers. We interviewed a student, a former president of the association, and a consultant who each gave their own take on what the conference means to them. Community stories like these will resonate extremely well with your audience!
All your connections get an alert when you publish an article on Pulse, making it a great promotional tool. Use it to make important announcements, such as the announcement of your speakers and program. It is an opportunity to explore long-form content, so let your passion shine with valuable, specific, and media-rich content.
Headlines and graphics are key to success on Pulse. Make several drafts of your headlines that use different emotional appeals, and run them through an analyzer to determine which one will perform the best. For your graphics, keep in mind that that 16:9 is an ideal image size for the cover, and inserting images every 75-100 words in your article can give engagement a serious boost!
The article you post should offer a solution to a problem, or information that is helpful in some way, just like a blog post. It should link back to your website and integrate a call-to-action to be really effective. There's another benefit to Pulse posts: it turns out that they are rich in SEO value because LinkedIn is the 25th most visited site in the world, and Google is more likely to index this content.
Your most recent posts appear on your LinkedIn profile page. It's likely that visitors will click on them, especially if they're intrigued by the headline. Conan O'Brien's profile page can show you what this looks like (and also how to use LinkedIn to hilarious effect). Be sure to amplify your LinkedIn presence on other social media sites, and repost your best content from time to time.
If you have an especially compelling story to tell, or a unique standpoint on a hot issue, your article can get featured. This means that LinkedIn's algorithm noticed that your post received many engagements from your army of followers, and feeds it to the masses. The competition is high, but it's still a goal worth pursuing. Bonus tip: You'll have a better chance of getting featured if you tweet your article to the editors at LinkedIn, who recently changed their handle without telling anyone! We'll set the record straight: include "tip @LinkedInEditors" along with your article in the tweet.

Following God's Calling: What does that even mean?
**To my readers: Please excuse my lack of any posts over the last few weeks, I intend to get back to my Sermon On The Mount series soon, though I realized that I needed to post something today so that I remain motivated to continue posting and to get back to a regular schedule.
A "calling" to me is where your passions or talents, and God's will for the world, come together. This is usually something that you do that causes you a lot of joy, and/or a sense of great purpose, even though it could be really challenging. A calling can either be vocational, or non-vocational; therefore, a priest is following his calling just as much as the full time working woman who teaches softball in her spare time is following hers. A person in business who has dreams of helping people, and helping his or her customers/clients is following their calling just as much as an international missionary. As long as we are pursuing what we believe God wants us to do, or doing something that we feel advances the Kingdom of God, it does not matter if its related to our Job or not; your calling does not have to be your job, but it can be.
I am not trying to over-spiritualize things here because, as I stated before, a calling could simply be you doing what you feel most passionate about, and that thing happens to be something that can be used to show love to those affected, and perhaps even show them Jesus through you.
For me, my "calling" is helping people by encouraging them to be independently interested in matters of faith, family, community, and many other things. I would like to do this through church ministry, bible studies, missions trips, financial budgeting, music, etc.. I have a degree in Business, many college courses in biblical studies, a lot of music experience, and a decent amount of ministry experience; therefore, my "calling" is taking what I can do, and using it for the betterment of others, and for the advancement of the good news of Jesus and his Kingdom through words, actions, and deeds.
I have recently accepted a full-time position as the "Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministries" at a church in the town that I grew up in. I am beyond excited to start this new venture in my life because the job description incorporates everything that I would like to do in order to help people, and in order to share the good news, which is transformative and wonderful (Read my blog post on a transformative Gospel here).
I will be afforded the opportunity to fulfill my calling within my vocation. Before this ministry position, I was working a desk job within an international corporation, and I had little time to really invest in any other things besides my work and my new marriage to my lovely wife. The workplace was negative, and I did not have a lot of time to talk to others, so I felt pretty burned out at the end of the day. However, I know of others who's calling can be fulfilled in the workplace, and they do it well. I know of others who may work a job they hate because they desire the betterment of their children and family; my dad is an incredible man for showing my own family an example of sacrifice in order to provide for us.
Your calling may be, or is fulfilled in, teaching, finances, construction, music, art, full-time ministry, providing for your family, or a long list of other things. The importance is that A) You follow it somehow in some way, and B) You use it for God's glory. Each Christian is called to be a light in the darkness, a city on a hill, and a lantern revealing the Hope that is present in Christ. God Can and WILL use you for His purposes , and when you sense a direction that you should go: follow it! Each one of us has spiritual and practical gifts, talents, and abilities, and not one of us is more qualified to be used by God than any other.
What is your calling? Are you following it?

Improving Childhood Literacy
There are 16 million children living in poverty in the United States. While parents often try to provide a better life for their children, many are unable to read to them. Recognizing the importance of childhood literacy, IPM set out to help.
"By putting books into the hands of children in these families, we open up unlimited possibilities and begin to chip away at the socioeconomic imbalance in society," says Mike O'Neill, a Boston-based project management consultant and the leader of the third-quarter 2018 Integrated Project Mercy volunteer effort. "Enabling children to pursue a better education is key to ending poverty and allowing everyone to live the dream."
Boston's team volunteered at the Catholic Charities Laboure Society Center to wash windows, make a blackboard, assemble bookcases, sort books, and paint reading-themed murals and footstools. The group also spent time with the children, helping them write their own books.
A group from the New Jersey office volunteered with Reading Partners NYC, which provides tutoring for primary school students struggling to read. The team headed down to PS194 in Harlem, where they worked one-on-one with the kids on reading, pronunciation, and comprehension.
IPM's San Francisco team volunteered at early-learning advocate Tandem Partners in Early Learning, adapting books for children with special needs into colorful blocks depicting the characters to help them learn storytelling and communication skills. The IPMers learned the importance of tailored teaching experiences.
Working with Reading in Motion, the IPM family in Chicago provided 70 backpacks and books to students at the city's Wendell Smith Elementary School. Volunteers hosted a pizza party, spent one-on-one time with the kids by reading to them, and distributed the backpacks. A second volunteer event supported the Open Books literacy program; there, IPMers worked with high school students on creative writing assignments.
In St. Louis, IPMers assembled wooden Book Boxes for 26 kindergartners and helped the kids each select five new books to start an at-home library. Bring Me a Book encourages children to read with their families. The team provided inspiration by reading to the kids during their visit.
Hosting a booth at the United Way's Fall into Literacy Festival, volunteers from the Los Angeles office hosted a contest challenging kids and their families to build the tallest structure using 20 strands of spaghetti, mini marshmallows, tape, and string. "We had some very creative participants," one IPM volunteer noted. "I think we have identified some future architects, engineers, and IPMers."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Said ibn al- Musayyab and Abu Salama ibn Abd ar-Rahman from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The wound of an animal is of no account and no compensation is due for it. The well is of no account and no compensation is due for it. The mine is of no account and no compensation is due for it and a fifth is due for buried treasures." (Al-kanz:
see Book 17).
Malik said, "Everyone leading an animal by the halter, driving it, and riding it is responsible for what the animal strikes unless the animal kicks out without anything being done to it to make it kick out. Umar ibn al-Khattab imposed the blood-money on a person who was exercising his horse."
Malik said, "It is more fitting that a person leading an animal by the halter, driving it, or riding it incur a loss than a person who is exercising his horse." (See hadith 4 of this book).
Malik said, "What is done in our community about a person who digs a well on a road or ties up an animal or does the like of that on a road used by muslims, is that since what he has done is included in that which he is not permitted to do in such a place, he is liable for whatever injury or other thing arises from that action. The blood-money of that which is less than a third of the full blood- money is owed from his own personal property. Whatever reaches a third or more, is owed by his tribe. Any such things that he does which he is permitted to do on the muslims' road are something for which he has no liability or loss. Part of that is a hole which a man digs to collect rain, and the beast from which the man alights for some need and leaves standing on the road. There is no penalty against anyone for this."
Malik spoke about a man who went down a well, and another man followed behind him, and the lower one pulled the higher one and they fell into the well and both died He said, "The tribe of the one who pulled him in is responsible for the blood-money."
Malik spoke about a child whom a man ordered to go down into a well or to climb a palm tree and he died as a result. He said, "The one who ordered him is liable for whatever befalls him, be it death or something else."
Malik said, "The way of doing things in our community about which there is no dispute is that women and children are not obliged to pay blood-money together with the tribe in the blood-moneys which the tribe must pay. The blood-money is only obligatory for a man who has reached puberty."
Malik said that the tribe could bind themselves to the blood-money of mawali if they wished. If they refused, they were people of the diwan or were cut off from their people. In the time of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, people paid the blood-money to each other as well as in the time of Abu Bakr as-Siddiq before there was a diwan. The diwan was in the time of Umar ibn al-Khattab. No one other than one's people and the ones holding the wala' paid blood- money for one because the wala' was not transferable and because the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The wala' belongs to the one who sets free."
Malik said, "The wala' is an established relationship."
Malik said, "What is done in our community about animals that are injured is that the person who causes the injury pays whatever of their value has been diminished."
Malik said about a man condemned to death and one of the other hudud befell him, "He is not punished for it. That is because the killing overrides all of that, except for slander. The slander remains hanging over the one to whom it was said because it will be said to him, 'Why do you not flog the one who slandered you?' I think that the condemned man is flogged with the hadd before he is killed, and then he is killed. I do not think that any retaliation is inflicted on him for any injury except killing because killing overrides all of that."
Malik said, "What is done in our community is that when a murdered person is found among the main body of a people in a village or other place, the house or place of the nearest people to him is not responsible. That is because the murdered person can be slain and then cast at the door of some people to shame them by it. No one is responsible for the like of that."
Malik said about a group of people who fight with each other and when the fight is broken up, a man is found dead or wounded, and it is not known who did it, "The best of what is heard about that is that there is blood-money for him, and the blood-money is against the people who argued with him. If the injured or slain person is not from either of the two parties, his blood-money is against both of the two parties together."
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، وَأَبِي، سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ  " جَرْحُ الْعَجْمَاءِ جُبَارٌ وَالْبِئْرُ جُبَارٌ وَالْمَعْدِنُ جُبَارٌ وَفِي الرِّكَازِ الْخُمُسُ " .

Q: PHP if session equals mysql table row, do something I've made a blog that prints all the posts from a single table named BlogData, the problem is that I want to be able to edit only the posts that I've posted, so I have stored in the column "poster" the name of the username that made the post.

 <?php
 $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM BlogData ORDER BY id DESC");
 while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){
    $title = $row['title'];
$content = $row['content'];
$category = $row['category'];
$image = $row['id'];
$extension= $row['ext'];
$title_color = $row['title_color'];
$content_color = $row['content_color'];
$category_color = $row['category_color'];
 /////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$poster = $row['poster'];  // THIS IS WHERE THE USERNAME IS STORED
 /////////////////////////////////////////////////////
 ?>

 <div class="title" style=color:#<? echo $title_color ?>>
 <?php echo $title; ?>

 <div class="date" style=color:#<? echo $category_color ?>>
 <?php echo $category; ?>
 <div class="poster" style=color:#<? echo $poster_color ?>>
 <?php echo $poster; ?>

 <?php
 echo "";
  ?>

 <div class="content" style=color:#<? echo $content_color ?>>
 <?php echo $content; ?>

 ////////////////////////////////
 ////////////////problem here
 ////////////////////////////////
 <?php
 if ($_SESSION['name'] == $row['poster']){
 echo "1";
 } else {
 echo "2";
 }
 }
 ?>
 <?php
 }
 ?>

the problem is, the "echo" on the end of the code, is printing 1 on all posts that have something stored on the row "poster" and 2 on all the posts that the row "poster" is empty, it should print 1 only on the posts that I've created. how can this be solved?

A: Add
session_start();

In your pup code before reading the $_SESSION variable.
PHP session_start manual
You could try to change your IF statement in this way, too:
if (isset($_SESSION['name']) && $_SESSION['name'])

È il bassista e seconda voce del gruppo j-rock Asian Kung-Fu Generation. Yamada ha incontrato i compagni di band Masafumi Gotō e Kensuke Kita in un club musicale della Kanto Gakuin University. I tre formarono gli Asian Kung-Fu Generation nel 1996, con il batterista Kiyoshi Ijichi che si unì poco dopo.

Mentre Masafumi è il principale compositore di testi del gruppo, Yamada ha fornito i testi per alcune canzoni. È laureato in letteratura e le sue band preferite sono The Beatles, Oasis, The Smashing Pumpkins e Pet Shop Boys. La band ha avuto l'opportunità di incontrare i fratelli Gallagher, poiché hanno aperto i concerto del tour degli Oasis in Giappone. I fratelli si sono mostrati molto più simpatici delle aspettative. Si dice che Noel Gallagher, in particolare, abbia incoraggiato gli AKG (Asian Kung-Fu Generation) a continuare a fare rock.
