C: 7m, 5f, extrasKaterina (Katya) is married to Tikhon, a merchant in a small Russian town. Although they did not marry for love, all would be well were it not for the behaviour of Tikhon's mother Kabanova, a tyrannical and mean-spirited old widow. Her constant nagging drives Katya to despair, while Kabanova allows her own daughter Varvara to behave as she likes. When Tikhon has to leave on a business trip, Varvara exploits the opportunity to invite two men to a secret meeting with Katya and herself: Boris, the nephew of a miserable old merchant Dikoy, and one of Dikoy's employees Vanya Kudryash. Having stolen the key from Kabanova, Varya and Katya escape by the garden gate to spend an idyllic time of free and gentle love with the two young men. Tikhon returns unexpectedly, and as a thunderstorm gathers, Katya is forced to confess her infidelity. Her guilt and the reproaches of husband and mother-in-law drive her to drown herself in the Volga. Meanwhile Boris's uncle sends him to Siberia.

Ostrovsky grew up in the merchants' quarter in Moscow, where, as also later as a court official, he was able to observe the domestic dramas of ordinary Russian life. In particular he was fascinated by what is called in Russia the samodur, the boorish, tyrannical, and complacent figure, represented here by Kabanova and Dikoy. Because they wield unchallenged power over their unfortunate employees and relatives, they can set tragedy in motion as surely as the royal tyrants of classical drama. The result is a play combining harsh realism with the gentle idyll of the scene between the lovers (hissed at by contemporary audiences for its immorality). Jánaček wrote an operatic version, Kátia Kabanová, in 1921.

Everyone has had the experience of waking up from a nightmare with the shaky realization that it was only a dream. With quivering exhalations, we are relieved to know that the horrors of our nighttime imagination are suddenly lifted. Life is back to normal.
The best "wake up" scene after a bad nightmare in literature has got to be Ebenezer Scrooge in A Christmas Carol. Three ghosts take the miserly Scrooge on a visionary tour of his life. Scrooge receives hair-raising visions, and the torment of his nightmares is palpable. He is shown his painful past and even more painful future. And just like the up and down cycles of Revelation, he also sees visions that inspire hope in the warmth and love of the Cratchit home. Those encouraging scenes are a bitter contrast to his own life.
The visions are wake-up calls for Scrooge, representing what the future holds if he does not change his ways. Scrooge pleads for mercy from the Spirit, begging for an altered fate in exchange for a reformed life. "I am not the man I was!" he cries.
What are we to make of it all? Those who use Revelation as a crystal ball think these visions are predictions. Like a hurricane, they think you can prepare for it but you can't change its inevitable path. Much ink has been wasted over the years on speculations of which modern historical event, like the Gulf War, matches each trumpet vision.
This is the futuristic perspective, and it is indeed the one we are rescuing Revelation from in this blog series. In this perspective, history looks like chaos, where God has only a script of doom to be played out for most of the world.
A literary perspective on the other hand is much more hopeful and encouraging. Like Scrooge's ghosts, Revelation's visions do not predict literal events but provide a wake-up call for humankind. The goal of the book is to exhort us to faithfulness to God through a new vision. The God we see in the throne room of Revelation 4 is the Creator and life-giver. When Jesus the lamb enters, all beings break out in praise.
This piece of context is crucial, for if God is the Creator and life-giver, why would he want to destroy it all? From a literary perspective, we need to assume God is on the side of life not death. Like Scrooge, we ask, "Why would God show us this if we are past all hope?" We are shown the visions precisely because there is still hope for us and the earth.
We have to ask then, what is the Christic meaning to these "nasty bits," these difficult sections? To answer this question, it's helpful to remember the victims and martyrs of Revelation 6 who, like the oppressed in every age, cry out, "How long oh Lord?" In Revelation 8-11, we see that God has not forgotten them. God gives them a taste of what revenge would look like, a vision every victim has entertained. Whether the infraction is small or large, everyone wants to see justice done on the perpetrators.
In Winnipeg, many have followed the story of Cliff and Wilma Derksen, whose 13-year old daughter Candace was murdered in 1984. The Derksens are Christians, and early on they publicly chose to forgive the then-anonymous killer. Many years later, Wilma spoke in a TEDx talk that despite this pivotal choice, they had revenge fantasies. Though they tasted sweet in the moment, they had to be released. Not only would revenge harm the killer, it would become a downward spiral for them as well. Sadly, not everyone puts the fantasies aside. The story of vengeance gets played out on an international scale and in our own families and communities on a regular basis.
The visions of the trumpets and plagues shows that God could hurl down vengeful judgement, but it wouldn't change a thing. In chapter 8, it's like God says, "Okay, let me show you what an outpouring of wrath would look like." It's a nightmare! Like Scrooge's three ghosts, the plot moves relentlessly forward, a veritable onslaught of horror. No pastel colors here! The seven seals, trumpets, and bowls and their tragic plagues are part of the book's wake-up call to us.
God says "Stop" to the revenge fantasy.
The stop occurs with the 7th and last trumpet in chapter 11.
Fast forward a few chapters, and instead of the last trumpet sounding with a full-out destruction of the world, a Voice comes and interrupts. God tells John not to write it down because it's not the message He wants to send. As is typical in the upside-down world of the Gospel, God wants to do something different. Space is created. John is given a bittersweet scroll to eat and told to prophesy again.
Like Scrooge, God's people are being given a second chance at a reformed life, and the horrifying visions just might shake them up enough to embrace it. The reason God has delayed in bringing down judgement is to provide space for his people to bear witness, to call for change to the world. After all, change, not revenge, is what God wants. It's not that plagues of wrath are inevitable, but they are ineffective.
The surprising turn in Revelation is that we don't have to be like the pre-reborn Scrooge, witnessing our dismal demise. Instead, we are to be engaged in speaking the truth, calling for change, calling on the world to honor the ways of the Creator who seeks life for the earth.
When the 7th trumpet finally sounds, it marks not disaster but celebration, verses which inspired Handel to write the Messiah. "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign for ever and ever." (Rev'n 11:15) The point of this part of Revelation is that God could pummel the earth, but instead, a space has been opened for us to see that God is calling for change, calling for us to honor the ways of the Creator who wants life, not death, for the earth. Empire has been overthrown and like Scrooge, we are called to a new life, bearing witness to the God of second chances.
In our humanness, we want revenge, and our anger is confrontative and violent, but the deeper desire of God is always to restore. Striking back is easy, but to come back with a more creative option, which really fits the context, is much more difficult.
The way of restoration doesn't come naturally to us. When Martin Luther King Jr was urging the people to respond nonviolently to injustice, he had them rehearse the motions of what they'd do when confronted. Sit-ins, peaceful resistance and songs of "We Shall Overcome" became the enduring legacy of change.
The Creator seeks life for the earth and all its people, and to be God's witness means to seek not just peace, but justice as well, like the Hebrew word shalom. Shalom is not a simple peace, but a complete peace, which heals and mends the world, restoring of all creation.
Father Greg Boyle, the Catholic priest who gives jobs to ex-gang members through Homeboy Industries in Los Angeles, often presides over funerals of kids who have died because of violence. Exemplifying the shalom of God, he sees all the gang members as God's children when he mourns, "It's kids I love killing kids I love." That's suffering love. As hard as it is for victims of injustice to accept, God loves the just and the unjust, and seeks shalom for us all.
Like the redeemed Scrooge, Cliff and Wilma Derksen, and the peaceful resisters of the Civil Rights Movement, Father Boyle would fit in the collage of witnesses of Revelation 11. Like Scrooge, we are called to a new life, bearing witness to the God of second chances.
Who have you encountered who exemplifies the interrupted judgment and mercy of God?
Have you ever received a wake-up call? Did it change you?
When have you received forgiveness when you were expecting judgment?
What spiritual practices interrupt the downward spirals of your "lesser angels"?
What signs of hope do you see in your community?

Blackfeather
by Paul Cashmere on June 17, 2013
https://s3.amazonaws.com/noise11interviews/nealejohns_int_april2013.mp4
Blackfeather exploded onto the Australian music scene in 1970 with the totally unique 'Seasons of Change' and the album 'At The Mountains of Madness'.
Blackfeather should have gone on to become one of the Australia's most enduring bands but instead it went the other way and they imploded just as quickly as it began.
Neale Johns continued on with a new line-up and another Blackfeather album 'Boppin' The Blues' but the band underwent more line-up changes and apart from a live album a few years later, they never sparked again.
The musical moments captured on those first two albums have been recently remastered and repackaged by Aztec Records and now available for the first time in decades.
Neale Johns was the led singer of Blackfeather and keeper of the name today. He came to Noise11 to tell the Blackfeather story to Paul Cashmere.

Q: Text-Based Adventure Without Using "States" - C# Unity I am currently learning C# and the Unity3D game engine. I am moving through the online course "Learn to Code by Making Video Games" and like it so far. However, I am on the second project (Making a 'text-based' adventure), and I feel like the way that the instructor built the game wouldn't really scale very well if you wanted more than a dozen 'rooms' or actions. I am hoping that someone could possibly point me in the right direction for something that is a little more flexible?
Here is a really streamlined version of what he currently is having us do:
private enum States {state_1, state_2, state_3, etc...}
private States myState;

void Start () {
    //Starts the game in 'state_1'
    myState = States.state_1;
}

void Update () {
    //constantly checking what state we are in, and then runs the correct function
    if(myState == States.state_1) {
        state_1();
    }
    if(myState == States.state_2) {
        state_2();
    }
    if(myState == States.state_3) {
        state_3();
    }
    //etc...
}

//Starting screen/display first series of options
void state_1() {
    //display text and control options for my first 'state'
}

//Possible action or option
void state_2() {
    //display text and control options for my another 'state'
}

//Another possible action or option
void state_3() {
    //display text and control options for my another 'state'
}
//etc...

While this does end up working, I feel like this is a really clunky system and gets unruly after just a dozen or so states, as I have to go back and add the conditional statement for every new state after I make it. Isn't there a way to make a really simple "check what state is, and go to that one" command in the void Update function instead of listing each and every possible one?
Like I said, I am fairly new to C# (done some work in PHP, HTML, CSS, but nothing as brutal as C#) so I am not sure if this is even something that I can do.
Thanks!

A: A State Machine is actually one of the most common mechanisms for game development, and you would be hard pressed to find a method that more efficiently organizes your game logic. That being said, you should not be using a series of if statements to check which state is currently active, because you are absolutely right - that method will not scale well at all.
The obvious alternative would be to use a switch block, but while that is far more efficient than an if series, it doesn't help with the whole code maintainability issue.
The next solution, then, would be to use delegates.
public delegate void StateHandler();

private StateHandler CurrentState;

void Start()
{
    CurrentState = StartingState;
}

void Update()
{
    CurrentState();
}

void StartingState()
{
    // do something
    CurrentState = State1;
}

void State1()
{
    // do something

    if (somethingHappens)
        CurrentState = State2;
    else
        CurrentState = State3;
}

void State2()
{
    // do something
    CurrentState = State1;
}

void State3()
{
    // etc
}

etc...

I'm sure that something like this is what your tutorial series was going to result in anyway, so it probably would be best that you finish the series before asking these kinds of questions. It's a common tactic in tutorials to present an example like this, then in the next lesson go "now that you understand the principle, let's implement it in a way that's not complete crap".

A: Hmm, TL;DR : It reaaaally depends on what specific functionalities you want for your game.
Most game engine/framework tutorials focus on getting you used to basics of their APIs and functionality.
For that reason, concepts such as data-driven design or using design patterns are hard to find in game tutorial books/videos!
You can find some good resources to start exploring that path in the following links:

*

*Creational, Structural, and Behavioral design patterns in C#.

*Game programming patterns
I particularly liked the last one, even though I was coding in a different language, it really helped me! Unless you are rapidly developing a prototype as a proof of concept, getting used to good practices will save you from accumulating an engineering debt that will cause you to have to re-factor your whole game in the long term!!
Before deciding on a specific pattern, spend some time defining exactly what specific features you want from your 'rooms', and beware of scope creep!

A: You might also want a mini-database that lends itself well to "states." There's a Google Sheets Asset on the asset store that could help you with setting up your text rooms, that can be easily edited, duplicated as needed. I've not played with it yet, but there are a lot of great reviews on it.

Italian law generally recognizes dual citizenship. This means that you can have citizenship in Italy and in another country at the same time. Recognition of Italian citizenship requires you to prove that your ascendants uninterruptedly maintained their Italian citizenship. Determination of your rights to Italian citizenship are determined by the Italian consulate with jurisdiction over your place of residence if you currently reside outside of Italy. The law also allows Italian citizens to obtain a second citizenship without giving up their Italian citizenship.
You can acquire Italian citizenship through ancestry. if you were born before 1948, you can obtain Italian citizenship only through your paternal direct ascendants. Those born after Jan. 1, 1948, can obtain Italian citizenship through either paternal or maternal ascendants. Since Italian citizenship is passed to descendants and there is no limit to the number of generations you are allowed to go back, as a descendant of an Italian citizen, you are generally eligible for Italian citizenship as long as you or one of the ascendants in the direct Italian line did not formally renounce Italian citizenship. Italian citizenship laws, however, are complicated, and the consulate will look at the specific laws in effect at the time of your birth, your ascendant's birth, and a variety of other factors to make the final determination about Italian citizenship eligibility.
Foreign spouses of Italian citizens are eligible to apply for Italian citizenship after two years of marriage if living in Italy and after three years if living abroad. These time periods are cut in half if the spouses have children. To apply for citizenship through marriage, you need to register the marriage at the town hall in Italy. If you are a spouse of an Italian citizen and you live abroad, you also need to register with the Italian consulate before applying for citizenship.
The documentation required when you apply for Italian citizenship varies, depending upon your specific circumstances, and you need to check with the Italian consulate in your area prior to submitting your application. Generally, however, you will need a copy of your passport, an original birth certificate, a complete criminal record check, your marriage license (if applicable) and documentation proving either your marriage to an Italian citizen or your direct Italian blood line. You need to submit original, certified documentation, and Italian translation is required for all documents.

American TV personality, a major talk-show host and pioneer of audience interaction in a flexible, captivating on-air performance. More than 200 stations carried the Donahue program around the country. He aired 29 seasons, 6,000 shows, won 20 Emmys and one Peabody award.
He was the son of a furniture salesman and homemaker whose parents raised him in a staunchly Irish Catholic Cleveland neighborhood. Phil got his communication gifts from his father and grew up with other kids playing stick ball in the street with little traffic. The focal point of his family life was the Franciscan neighborhood church. He went to the University of Notre Dame and majored in marketing. Upon graduation, Donahue became a news reporter for WHIO-TV in Dayton, Ohio 1959-67. He hosted WHIO-Radio in Dayton on the show, "Conversation Piece," 1963-67.
On 11/6/1967, he entered the local Dayton television market with his program, "The Phil Donahue Show" with his first guest, atheist Madalyn Murray O'Hair. He worked hard to develop a program that was tackling serious issues for a mostly female audience. The show moved to Chicago from 1974-l985 and the to New York City from 1985-1996. He tackled issues such as abortion, nuclear weapons, AIDS, pollution, and consumer protection issues and his viewing audience expanded. His guests were congressmen, senators, presidential candidates, authors, scientists, and celebrities in the television, radio, and movie industry. His daytime show considered educational and informative programming; Pulitzer-prize winning author, David Halberstam called "Donahue" a televised PhD course.
Donahue contributed to the "Today" shows, appeared in prime-time specials, wrote his best-selling autobiography, "Donahue: My Own Story," 1979, and co-moderated a Democratic Presidential candidate debate in 1984. Until the mid-'80s, Donahue was the only talk show in town. But by 1987 and 1988, Oprah Winfrey, Geraldo and Sally Jessy Raphael began to challenge his top spot in daytime television. Despite his steady ratings success and $8 million a year salary, Donahue was getting competition for viewership. He tried to maintain a scope of serious issue-based programming in his show but found that he had to compromise and pander month after month to more sensational material. Heavily criticized by media watchers, Donahue was feeling the heat compromising his own ideas for ratings. He felt he was in the midst of a culture of decay. He hung up his mike and quit in January 1996 because of the increasing popularity of sleaze and sensationalism. With his clear aqua blue eyes, boyish good looks, serious nature and mid-western charm, Donahue was accessible to his television audience, always ready to thank them in person for attending his shows. On 9/04/1997, Donahue filed suit in Greenville, SC against Universal Television Enterprises and his talk show's former owners; he was seeking the right to buy reruns of "Donahue."
His first marriage was to Marge Cooney from 1958-75. He acknowledges the fact that he was a workaholic but that the family accepted his predicament. After his divorce, he raised his four sons, and Marge raised his only daughter. He met actress Marlo Thomas on his show and they married on 5/21/1980. His feminist wife's influence made him strive for a marriage based on equality. He became more concerned with women's issues and used his show to air discussion of the changes the American family in the 70s, 80s and 90s.
His good guy reputation was damaged when he purchased the adjacent mansion next door to his home in Westport, Connecticut and then proceeded to bulldoze the ultra-modern concrete and glass structure house designed by John Johansen despite the protest of architectural preservationists and architecture students.
Before his retirement, Donahue discussed possible future plans as a politician. He felt his more liberal political views were not in step in the '80s Reagan era. He considers himself a C-SPAN junkie, reads the Wall Street Journal, NY Times, and avid MacNeil/Lehrer News Hour watcher. In July 2002, he returned to TV for an interview-format show.

QinetiQ Group plc ("QinetiQ"), the science and engineering company that operates primarily in the defence, security and aerospace markets, today issues a trading update covering the period from 31 March 2017 to date and reconfirms its outlook for FY18 from its preliminary results.
This statement is issued ahead of QinetiQ's 2017 Annual General Meeting (AGM) to be held at the offices of Ashurst LLP, Broadwalk House, 5 Appold Street, London EC2A 2HA at 11am today.
The trading environment remains dynamic, particularly in the UK following the recent General Election, and presents both opportunities and challenges. QinetiQ has the inherent capabilities and strategy to thrive in this environment despite some near-term unpredictability of order intake.
In the EMEA Services division, first quarter revenue under contract is similar to the position a year ago but orders have been slower than expected with some customer contract award decisions deferred or delayed.
Despite the somewhat slower start to the year for orders, we continue to expect the division to deliver modest revenue growth in FY18. The lower baseline profit rate for single source contracts continues to represent a headwind for operating margins, as previously advised.
The Global Products division has shorter order cycles than EMEA Services and its performance is dependent on the timing and shipment of key orders.
Revenue performance in Global Products during the first quarter was similar to the prior year and we expect the division to grow in FY18 as a result of its contracted orders and pipeline of opportunities, as well as the anticipated full year contribution from the Target Systems acquisition.
As outlined at our preliminary results, we are investing in our key contracts and their associated facilities. FY18 cash flow will reflect this increased investment, with capex of £80m - £100m to support the amendment to the Long Term Partnering Agreement announced in December 2016.
We continue to make good progress delivering our strategy, embedding the cultural changes needed to improve customer focus and deliver our long-term growth aspirations.
Consequently, we are reaffirming the previous outlook outlined at our preliminary results dated 25 May 2017 and expect steady progress in FY18, excluding the non-recurring benefits in FY17, supported by revenue growth and consistent with our strategy.


Eric, I don't watch much/any NHL during regular season, but once the Caps are in the playoffs, I've got to watch. More intensity, and impressive watching the goalies make tough stop after tough stop.
We're just not going to see eye to eye on this one. I love that I have a fabulous memory and can tell you most every phone number in my phone without looking and I HATE hockey.
Good morning Eric - thank goodness memory is overrated because mine is starting to go :) Have a great day!
I completely agree with this one. My memory is not there with phone numbers, etc. I often use the GPS to get me where I need to go, even though I know the mean streets of Fort Wayne like the back of my hand. Playoff hockey is exciting!! Fun to watch.
BLiz, I watch a few games during the regular season if nothing much is going on, but I'd watch every playoff game if I could.
Judi, I don't go to many sporting events in person. I'd rather have the comforts of home, including a stocked refrigerator and a clean bathroom close by.
Tammy, that's what I hope these Overrated/Underrated posts do. Just start a discussion. There's no right or wrong.
Jean, haha. Eat more fish or fish oil supplements.
Jared, it's about time you agreed with me lol. I didn't know Fort Wayne had mean streets. Anything like Livonia's?
Michael, that's kind of what I meant. We don't need to rely on the memory for the little, mundane things.

Will "Star Trek 2" Get Delayed?
In 2009, J.J. Abrams' Star Trek reboot was a revelation for audiences. Gone were the heady sci-fi talk and alien politics of the earlier films, replaced by an action packed, and incredibly streamlined, summer blockbuster. But while the first movie seemingly went off without a problem, the sequel might have run into a bump in the road.
According to Deadline, the much anticipated Star Trek 2 may get delayed from its original June 29, 2012 release date to a much more manageable 2012 fourth quarter holiday release. The reasoning is that with no script completed, and director Abrams having just recently completed this summer's Super 8 (in theaters June 10), there simply won't be enough time to deliver the goods. Only a 70-page outline exists for the movie and Abrams hasn't even formally announced his return, though Deadline says that should be coming any day now.
While Paramount hasn't confirmed any of this yet, all of the evidence points to this decision being the logical choice. So while one of Paramount's 2012 summer tentpoles will be M.I.A., a holiday release date should give the filmmakers enough time to ensure a quality product.
However, Star Trek 2 will have to battle off against The Hobbit and Zack Snyder's Man of Steel next winter. That's a whole lot of nerdy goodness happening all at once.

Q: Error when removing line with function parameter [jsxgraph] I have a JSXGraph project in which I created a point (A) on the x.axis and a line that is perpendicular to the x-axis and runs through (A). When moving (A) the line should follow the point. That worked fine so far.
However at the press of a button I would like to remove the line and the point and free the variables that contained the line and the point.
Here is where my problem lies. After removing the point/line and freeing the variables the update() function still calls the function that was used to define the line, which results in an error, as the variable in the function no longer exists.
Any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanks!
Link to fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/t9rcva1x/1/
const testBoard = JXG.JSXGraph.initBoard('jxgbox', { axis: true });
let testPoint = testBoard.create('point', [1, 0]);
function testfunction() {
    return testPoint.X();
}
let testLine = testBoard.create('line', [
    [testfunction, 0],
    [testfunction, 1],
]);
testBoard.removeObject(testLine);
testBoard.removeObject(testPoint);
testPoint = null;
testLine = null;
testBoard.update();

A: Indeed, there is a problem with dependencies between objects. If a line is created from two coordinates arrays like
let testLine = testBoard.create('line', [
    [testfunction, 0],
    [testfunction, 1],
]);

then internally two JSXGraph points are created which define the line. Now, when the line is deleted, JSXGraph does not automatically remove these two internal points. The workaround is to delete these two points manually:
document.getElementById('remove').addEventListener('click',()=>{
    testBoard.removeObject([
        testLine.point1, testLine.point2, testLine, testPoint
    ]);
});

Camino Intersects 96.5 Meters Grading 0.93% Copper At Adriana Zone And Expands Katty Oxide Zone
By Olga Krysak22 August 2017October 16th, 2020No Comments
August 22, 2017. Camino Minerals Corporation ("Camino" or the "Company") (COR: TSX-V) is pleased to report results for three diamond drill holes completed on the Ariana Zone and four holes on the Katty Zone at its Los Chapitos Project ("Chapitos"), located in southern Peru.
Select drill highlights for the Adriana Zone include:
DCH-012 intersected 0.93% copper over 96.5 meters, including 2.03% copper over 19.5 meters and 5.01% copper over 4.5 meters;
DCH-019 intersected 0.97% copper over 42.0 meters, including 3.31% copper over 7.5 meters.
Select drill highlights for the Katty Zone include:
DCH-010 intersected 0.70% copper over 43.5 meters, including 1.85% copper over 5.6 meters;
Holes DCH-012, DCH-016, and DCH-019 are the first holes completed from Pad 2A to drill perpendicular to the initial holes which were drilled from Pad 1. These holes confirm the presence of the previously reported high grade copper mineralization, including hole CHR-002 which intersected 1.30% copper over 106 meters, including 2.12% copper over 38 meters. The results of the diamond drilling suggest two ore controls are present in the deeper mineralization. First, the Diva Fault appears to be the re-activation of an earlier, structurally controlled breccia which was cemented with copper sulphides. Grades in this mineralized breccia range up to 8.30% copper over 1.5 meters. This mineralization is interpreted to be the steeply dipping feeder zone for the Adriana copper system. It has so far been traced for over 400 meters along strike, over 350 meters down dip, and is open along strike and at depth.
Second, copper also forms magnetite replacement zones spreading out into specific beds within the andesitic volcanics. This style of mineralization has so far been intersected up to 150 meters away from the feeder system. All three holes from Pad 2A ended in a hypabyssal volcanic which contained finely disseminated magnetite, minor pyrite, and locally anomalous copper values.
At the Katty Zone, holes DCH-010, and DCH-014 confirm the presence of a shallow zone of high grade copper oxide mineralization that is plunging to the south east. The mineralization has so far been intersected in an area measuring 75 meters long, up to 75 meters wide, and to depths of 100 meters below surface. The copper oxide mineralization is found in structurally controlled breccias and transitions into sulphide mineralization at depth. The zone is open along trend to the south east and at depth.
Work continues on the project with two drills active, both currently working at the Adriana Zone, with additional drilling planned for the Katty Zone. Through the end of the year, the Company expects to complete an additional 8,000 to 10,000 meters of definition and step-out drilling at the Adriana Zone; 2,000 to 3,000 meters at the Katty Zone; and preliminary drill programs at both the Vicky Zone, 2 kilometers south east of Katty, and the Atajo Zone, located on a separate trend 6 kilometers to the south west. An amendment to the existing exploration permit has been filed for the proposed drilling at the Vicky Zone. A separate permit application has been filed for the initial drill program at the Atajo Zone. The Company expects both will be approved in time to allow drilling in the fourth quarter of this year.
Kenneth C. McNaughton, M.A.Sc., P.Eng., is the Qualified Person (QP) responsible for the Chapitos project.

(1)True thickness to be determined…
(2)All samples were submitted for preparation and analysis by ALS Chemex at its facilities in Lima, Peru. All samples were analyzed using multi-digestion with ICP finish and fire assay with AA finish for gold. Samples over 1% copper were reanalyzed using four acid digestion with an ore grade ICP finish. Mineralized samples were analyzed for acid soluble copper by being agitated at room temperature in a 5% sulphuric acid solution with the copper content measured by AA. One in 20 samples was blank, one in 20 was a standard sample, and one in 20 samples had a sample cut from assay rejects assayed as a field duplicate at ALS Chemex in Lima, Peru.

Q: Altorouter path differences on localhost vs remote server I am wondering how to remove "/" from link paths in .htaccess (I assume) when navigating a site on localhost (localhost/mysite) that was is on the root of a remote server (www.example.com).
This routing is done with Altorouter and in order to get any functionality I added setBaePath("/myProject") which works.
My problem is that any links in the site (e.g. "/home") have a slash that results in the browser going to "localhost/home" instead of "localhost/mysite/home".
Do I need to make changes to the .htaccess file to parse out "/" from all the links within the site?

Two Questar III Career and Technical Education Students Take First Place, One Takes Third in Statewide SkillsUSA Championships
HUDSON, N.Y.- Keira Baitsholts of Greenville Central School District and Jaxon Haigh of Hudson City School District placed first in their respective events at the statewide SkillsUSA Championships.
SkillsUSA Championships are annual career competition events that showcase the best Career and Technical Education (CTE) students in the nation. Competitions begin locally and continue through the state and national levels. In a typical year, about 50-60 students compete at the state level in a given event. Competitions were performed virtually this year.
Baitsholts, in the HVAC & Renewable Energies program at the Columbia-Greene Educational Center (CGEC), competed in the Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration event. Baitsholts was given three scenarios for which she wrote a summary of how to identify and correct each issue and performed repairs. Scenarios included a frozen compressor coil, a leak in a gas line and a faulty compressor.
Haigh, in the EMT program at CGEC, competed in the CPR/First Aid event. Haigh first completed a 50-question test in CPR/First Aid. For the performance portion of the event, he performed CPR on an adult with an automated external defibrillator, joint stabilization, bleeding control and anaphylaxis control.
"I am so proud," said SkillsUSA Advisor Rosemary Helinksi. "The students and their instructors really worked hard to make this happen."
Both Baitsholts and Haigh will compete virtually in the national SkillsUSA Championships the week of June 20.

Q: Jasmine trigger the search member function but can't get any response or error I am new to Jasmine and I am testing via UI so after entering the values in the search input field and triggering keyup event the search function is called which I confirmed by logging at different points but the API call is not triggered which is inside the search function. Do I have to use await or something like that?
dashboard.spec file
  beforeEach(() => {
    inputElement = fixture.nativeElement.querySelector('input[name=search]');
    inputElement.focus()
    inputElement.value = '131420'
    inputElement.dispatchEvent(new Event('input'));;
    fixture.detectChanges();
    keyUp().then(async () => {
      expect(component.searchText).toEqual(inputElement.value)
    });
  });

  it('should update the input', () => {
    fixture.detectChanges();
    console.log(component, 'component')
  })

  function keyUp() {
    inputElement.dispatchEvent(new KeyboardEvent('keyup', { 'key': 'Space' }));
    fixture.detectChanges();
    inputElement.blur();
    return fixture.whenStable();
  }

search function that called on triggering keyup event from UI:
 search(event) {
    if (event) {
      console.log(event, 'event');
    }
    vm.tabHeight = 385;
    vm.selectedContract = 0;
    vm.member = {};
    vm.finance = null;
    vm.accountId = null;
    vm.searchLoading = true;
    var searchText = vm.searchText;
    console.log(searchText, 'searchText')
    if (searchText) {
      searchText = searchText.replace(/\(/g, '');
      searchText = searchText.replace(/\)/g, '');
      searchText = searchText.replace(/\-/g, '');
      searchText = searchText.replace(/\&/g, '');
      console.log('here')
      vm.dashboardService.search(searchText)
        .subscribe(res => {
          console.log('got search response', res);
          vm.searchResult = res.hits;
          vm.searchLoading = false;
        }, err => {
          console.error('got search error', err);
          vm.searchLoading = false;
        });
    } else {
      vm.searchLoading = false;
    }
  }

A: You are doing asynchronous stuff in beforeEach. To do so, there is a callback function you should use which will be invoked when all async work has been completed :
beforeEach((done) => {
  promise.then(() => {
     done();
  });
}

Also, you probably should'nt write assertions (expect) in a setup function (beforeEach) but in your test case (it).

BOOK REVIEW – U.S. Marines in Battle: An-Nasiriya 23 March – 2 April 2003
December 30, 2013 Book Reviews, Books, History, News2003, an-nasiriya, combat, II MEF, marine expeditionary force, task force tarawa, us marines, USMC
By Col. Rod Andrew Jr. USMCR, U.S. Marine Corps History Division, Marine Corps University, Quantico, VA, (2013)
Reviewed by Col. Curt Marsh, USMC (Ret.)
This booklet documents a notable battle in Marine Corps history. Colonel Andrew is a professor of history at Clemson University who served as an artillery officer during Operation Desert Storm. Andrew relied on official unit reports and interviews with the imbedded field historian and key individuals.
The details of the battle for An-Nasiriya are well presented with special emphasis on the specific units involved and the key battlefield leaders. The fight for Nasiriya was conducted by Task Force Tarawa, one of four combat elements under II Marine Expeditionary Force (II MEF). Their mission was to secure the town of Nasiriya to open an additional main supply route for the 1st Marine Division. The roads in southern Iraq were fairly restricted. Nasiriya was a major choke point between the US Army V Corps to the west (left) of II MEF. The main highways converged there with two sets of bridges over each of the Euphrates River and Saddam Canal.
The original plan was to take the southeast bridge over the Euphrates and the northeast bridge over the Saddam Canal. The problem was a stretch of road between them that cut through the edge of town, referred to as "ambush alley." Shortly after their initial assault, the Marines ran into a damaged Humvee with some soldiers from the 507th Maintenance Company that inadvertently ran into the city the night before. The movement to take the NE bridge over the Saddam Canal became a classic fog of war scenario with bad radio communications. There was confusion where the other units were located. This directly led to an authorized airstrike by National Guard A-10s on friendly troops, killing at least 8 Marines and destroying several amtracks.
The account of the battle reveals bravery and outstanding leadership at various levels of command through difficult and confusing circumstances. There is an excellent review of the friendly fire incident, noting a number of lessons learned on conducting Close Air Support. Of note is how well Task Force Tarawa worked with other joint forces such as Army and Navy Special Operations forces. These units shared valuable intelligence and worked closely together on the mission to save Army PFC Lynch who was held at a hospital in the city. This cooperation, along with the determined effort of Marines to save other soldiers of the 507th, was a testament to how joint forces learned to treat each other as brothers in combat. Another takeaway is how well US forces learned to use combined arms, including artillery and air support, and both rotary and fixed wing aircraft to overwhelm a determined enemy.
This battlefield account is well presented and in an easily readable format. The maps and pictures are very helpful. There are numerous footnotes and references as should be expected from a publication of this nature. The only minor gripe I had was an overly flattering description of several of the commanders in the first part of the account. Perhaps they deserved it. Regardless, this battle was a difficult one led by very professional and capable commanders and worthy of being officially documented.
Col. Marsh is a retired Marine Corps officer and naval aviator who flew the A-4M Skyhawk.


Trump still wouldn't accept the deal.
A lot of ideas were batted around congress in the waning minutes of Friday night, as the government teetered on the edge of a shutdown.
One of those things? Funding for Donald Trump's infamous border wall.
In the early hours of Saturday morning, Chuck Schumer revealed that in a 90-minute meeting with Trump on Friday in the Oval Office — which was solely between Schumer, Trump, and their respective chief of staffs — he put funding for the border wall on the table as part of negotiations.
"During the meeting, in exchange for strong [Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals] protections, I reluctantly put the border wall on the table for the discussion. Even that was not enough to entice the president to finish the deal," Schumer said from the Senate floor, after the vote to pass legislation that would have avoided a shutdown by temporarily funding the government for four weeks failed.
Reports indicate that not only did Schumer float discussions about the wall, he offered to support defense spending funding requested by the White House as well.
"In my heart, I thought we might have a deal tonight. That was how far we had come. That's how positive our discussion felt. We had a good meeting," he said.
The wall, which Mexico insists it will not pay for, has been a contentious political issue since it became a rallying cry for Trump and his supporters at campaign rallies as early as 2015. Earlier this month, the Wall Street Journal reported that the Trump administration will seek to spend $18 billion taxpayer dollars on just half of the wall between the United States and Mexico. Trump's stance on what exactly would constitute a wall has shifted dramatically over time.
The fact that Schumer was willing to bend so much on funding for the wall is a sign of how much negotiating Democrats were willing to do, contrary to the insistence by Trump and most Republicans that the blame for the shutdown rests entirely on the shoulders of Schumer and the Democratic party.
But, of course, the Republicans control every legislative branch of the federal government, and six Senate Republicans voted against the funding bill that was on the table Friday night.
So, Schumer is pushing back against the #SchumerShutdown narrative, and placing the blame directly on the president's shoulders.

The MasterCard aid network is an end-to-end solution which includes a chip-enabled card that isn't pre-loaded with cash, but instead can contain packages of physical goods including food, medicine, and shelter.
MasterCard aims to give this technology to micro entrepreneurs and merchants in disaster-hit regions. Retailers that are participating in the scheme will be supplied a visual, user-friendly terminal that will accept aid cards that are given to the public.
Deliver aid quickly- MasterCard will train merchants on how to use the software with a web-based aid program. Time is saved as they do not need to integrate the tech with local financial service providers.
Function in unreachable positions – An internet connection isn't required to complete a transaction, so the solution can be deployed anywhere.
Reduce costs and red tape – The cards can be used multiple times to collect aid so they eliminate the need for a voucher system. Recipients of the service go straight to the merchants to collect the aid, so NGO staff can be implemented elsewhere.
Keep digitalised records – NGO staff can see the actual items a beneficiary purchase with their vouchers and quickly review merchant reports, eliminating concerns of voucher fraud.
Be financially inclusive – For most third world countries, this will be a first step towards having digital financial services that could provide the groundwork to one day being financially inclusive.
''With MasterCard Aid Network, we are transforming the way NGOs and other aid agencies can deliver support to people in need,'' explained Walt Macnee, vice chairman of MasterCard.
The aid payment solution has come at a time where the humanitarian network is under severe stress.
According to a recent report by the High Level Panel on Humanitarian Cash Transfers, nearly 60 million people around the world were displaced by conflict in 2014, and 218 million people a year are affected by natural disasters. This has put NGOs under pressure to find new tools to distribute aid.
MasterCard has already deployed its new aid technology to underserved countries.
The network has been working with Save the Children in Yemen, where approximately 41 percent of the population have been displaced due to civil and political unrest.
Evangelical Christian humanitarian group World Vision has also been using the digital tool, this time in the Philippines, helping small business owners recover from the devastation left by Typhoon Haiyan.
''Our staff, vendors and aid beneficiaries were able to quickly adopt and use the system,'' said George Fenton, Director of Humanitarian Operations Services of World Vision.


Set in 1949, a Hollywood star mourns the loss of her beloved sister on the one year anniversary of her death. When the truth of her murder is revealed, a surprise visitor returns. Time is running out.
I had the pleasure of first working with Chris Roe years ago my first feature THE EMPLOYER. A man of real style and substance, I was always impressed by him and his vision. So when he approached me to score Cemetery Tales: A Tale of Two Sisters, and I jumped at the opportunity. Black and white, with a retro feel of the late 1940s inspired by Sunset Blvd, Hitchcock and classic Bernard Hermann film scores, this was a rare chance to stretch my wings and compose something hauntingly beautiful.
We recorded a number of live players over two days of sessions, and will be posting a preview of the original score SOON.

Breaches and hacks continue to rise but this proactive young NI company may have the solution.
Security software player Uleska has secured £500,000 in investment and sales orders. The company will use the funding to grow product development and double its headcount.
'A fundamental flaw in most security software is the need for manual processes'
– GARY ROBINSON
Belfast-based Uleska raised £325,000 in investment from a combination of institutional and private investors, including Techstart NI and Clarendon Fund Managers as well as Denis Murphy (co-founder of software business Anaeko), who will join the board of the company.
"There continues to be a plethora of breaches and hacks at top organisations, and companies such as Uleska are developing the technology to address this issue," said Murphy.
Sales of £175,000 have been secured across UK and Ireland, as well as through Uleska's new partnership with industry giant PwC.
A gap in the market, a market in the gap
Uleska was founded in February 2016 to address a gap in the automation of software security for internet and cloud systems. It is competing in the application security market, which is expected to grow to $9bn per year by 2022, according to industry experts Gartner.
"A fundamental flaw in most security software is the need for manual processes," said founder and CEO Gary Robinson, who has also been nominated to join the board of the Open Web Application Security Project, a trusted worldwide software institute.
"The industry average to security test code is around six months and a further two months to translate the technical issues into business risks. Uleska's software reduces the need for skilled personnel to organise and run testing, facilitating effective automation of security testing and prioritising the risk of those issues within hours," Robinson explained.
Uleska is currently recruiting developers to help build on its initial success. The investment will enable the company to increase its headcount to 12 people, with expectations that there will be further recruitment growth in 2019.
"The financial support will help us to increase market penetration, continue development of the core products and recruit some talented people to join us on this exciting journey," Robinson added.

Said to Congress by the 88-year-old in a grave tone one would think it to be an honest admission.
That however, is hardly the case. Let me explain what a 'market participant' actually is.
A 'market participant' is someone who is involved in what is generally referred to as the stock market (Dow, S&P) or the bond market. The people who are professional 'market participants' carry the lay title Banker.
So what Mr. Greenspan is saying to Congress is that he was unexpectedly surprised to discover that banker's greed exceeds their rational thought, to which I say, Mr. Greenspan, have you ever met a banker?
One current example, of the multitude available, is the manipulation of LIBOR.
Overnight, large banks borrow from one another. The interest they pay on these overnight loans is called LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate). Just like when you take out a loan to buy a car, if your credit is bad you get a high interest rate because your credit score is a reflection of the probability you may default (or not pay your loan back on time).
Banks borrow massive sums of money so this interest rate needs to be low or it will cut into profits. However, in 2007, with the looming financial crisis, banks weren't getting their previously low interest rate (a reflection of their poor financial health) but if they borrowed money and news got out that they had a high interest rate, investors would sell their stock and the price would plummet.
So, Mr. Greenspan's 'rational market participants' did the following.
Unbelievably, until very recently, London regulators who set the interest rate (LIBOR) trusted banks to give them accurate numbers as to the interest they must pay. As is always the case, bankers with no oversight have very little reason to comply with any sense of integrity and accordingly lied about the interest rate they were paying for the overnight loans to prevent investors from finding out their banks were no longer worth the price of their stock.
That seems pretty bad, but it doesn't hint at how irrational these actions were.
LIBOR effectively sets interest rates for every loan of every kind from student loans to mortgages in 10 different currencies.
This means, the bankers created legal liability to every person with any type of debt, which amounts to over $10 trillion in addition to countless trillions in derivatives.
Going back to Mr. Greenspan, he knows perfectly well never to trust a banker. The 'market participant' to whom he is referring is himself! Leading up to the financial crisis he was revered as the best Fed Chair in history. However, even nerdy economists can become egotistical, so he threw caution to the wind and with it regulatory oversight and duly earned his new reputation as the Fed Chair who destroyed the global economy.
Did I miss something? Did Mr Greenspan repeal the Glass Steagal act (regulatory oversight) or was that Congress?
Yes, you did miss something. Glass-Steagall separated investment banks from commercial banks because the government (FDIC) insures up to $500,000 of an individual's bank deposits. Striking down Glass-Steagall allowed the funds of investment to be co-mingled with those of depositors, leaving the government on the line for insuring both.
The Federal Reserve System regulates financial institutions and their associated activities and ensures fair and equitable services to customers to maintain financial stability of the system. Not regulating instruments with such undeterminable risk such as CDO's is a failure in this respect because the system needed tremendous taxpayer support to offset the losses incurred as CDO's went bad and put strain on the financial markets.

A new outbreak of the H5N1 strain of bird flu has reportedly been discovered among poultry in China.
An area near Zhongwei, a city in the Ningxia region, is where the latest signs of H5N1 have emerged, according to a report by the government's Xinhua News Agency.
There was no mention of how many or what type of birds were involved.
The Agriculture Ministry dispatched experts to control any possible outbreak in the area, while local authorities were disinfecting vehicles and people travelling in and out, according to Xinhua.
The news surfaces as experts are re-examining whether a Chinese man may have died of the avian influenza in 2003 - two years before any human cases were reported in the country. The man's death was originally attributed to SARS.
China has reported more than 30 bird flu outbreaks in poultry since October. The country reported its first human cases of bird flu in 2005, and there have been 12 human fatalities in China from the disease since then.
SARS, which has very similar symptoms to bird flu, eventually killed 774 people worldwide.


Today we want to encourage you to take part in a special initiative within this community. This is a beautiful example of a city rallying around and supporting the artists that bring it to life.
Tom Thoune, a painter and mosaicist and Raymond Grubb, a photographer are two of the most well loved artists in this community. They are also two of the most committed to making this city great by investing their work back into it.
Last year they've faced some very serious challenges, even their dog Ivy has had some health issues! But together they've overcome these challenges with grace and tenacity.
Here's where you come in, a go fund me page has been organized by friends of the artists to assist them with medical bills. You can visit the page to learn more about Tom and Raymond and donate.
You can also help by purchasing their work (which is always FANTASTIC!) Tonight there is a Pop up gallery show at the Spoke Easy in Elizabeth featuring Tom's new work. Go see it, meet the artist, and take home a piece. It will mean more to you than any piece you own, because you will know that it has made you a part of a community of artists and art supporters that care for each other.
