Q: Xcode issue building 64-bit app with LibX library I'm trying to use libXl for iOS and it is giving me a linker error.
"missing required architecture x86_64"
I've changed the Architechture to standard but when I try to build for a 64 bit simulator, it gives me the linker error.
What needs to be changed to fix this error if I don't have the source code for the library?

A: Unfortunately, if you don't have the source code for the library and the library doesn't have a 64-bit slice, then you can't compile a 64-bit version of your app. (By the looks of things, even the commercial version of LibXL doesn't support 64-bit yet.)
Additionally, you can't mix 32 and 64 bit code/libraries within an app, I'm afraid. (If your app is 32 bit, the OS will load a 32 bit version of UIKit, etc. but that's as far as it goes.)
However, if you simply build your app as 32-bit if will run perfectly fine on 64-bit (i.e.: A7 processor+) devices.

Q: node.js http request/response parameters I'm still somewhat confused by how node callbacks work. Looking at this tutorial: http://www.nodebeginner.org/
var http = require("http");

http.createServer(function(request, response) {
  response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/plain"});
  response.write("Hello World");
  response.end();
}).listen(8888);

My understanding is that the request and response parameters are passed when the server receives a request. However, I'm not sure how you would tell by the syntax. Does the createServer function not return anything until it actually receives a request, upon which it returns two objects, the request and the response?

A: No, the createServer method returns immediately, with a new web server object.  That web server object's listen method is then immediately called, and the server begins listening for connections on port 8888.    The listen call returns immediately as well; you can demonstrate this by adding a console.log('here'); on the next line and seeing how it writes to the terminal as soon as you run the script.  As a result of the listen call, any time a new HTTP request is made to port 8888, the callback which was the sole argument to createServer is called to handle the request.
Since Node runs in a single thread (more or less), any operation that would block that thread--like waiting around for a server connection, or a database query, or a response to a remote request--is handled asynchronously, through the use of callbacks like the one in your example.


Congratulations to the Year 7/8 Junior Girls' Football Team on winning the District Championship. The girls played three games on the day and won on all occasions. The first game was a win against Melba College (80 – 0) while Game 2 was against a determined Mooroolbark College and the scores were very even until half time. Then the girls really lifted and came home strongly to win comfortably, 37 -13.
The third and deciding game was against a very strong Ringwood College team who were also undefeated. In the last quarter Norwood was only up by three points. Many positional changes were made yet the girls adapted well and should be proud of their strong finish. The final score was 31 – 22, reflecting a great, closely fought game played in good spirit with high skill levels from both teams.
The girls were outstanding all day and deserved the success; it was a great team effort. They have made Mr Wilson so proud to advance to the next level. Special thanks to Emily's Dad Stuart, who came along and co – coached on the day. Thanks to Mr Wilson and Mr Jag for giving me the wonderful opportunity to participate.
The sun was shining at Pinks Reserve last Thursday for the Maroondah Division Boys' Netball Tournament. Congratulations to our nine superstar players who all put in 100% and demonstrated integrity and sportsmanship all day long. Our 'sensational shooters' Brent Gaudion and Tim O'Brien were on fire in the goal circle and were supported by our 'marvelous mid-court' consisting of Daniel Frost, Flynn Guerin, Matthew Low, Lachlan Lynch and Matt Bui, who moved the ball effortlessly down the court. Our 'defensive duo' Brent Gordon and Tyler Hodge were absolute dynamite, rebounding, intercepting and turning over the ball.
We won both our games throughout the day and will now progress through to the Eastern Metropolitan Region Finals in Term 3. Results can be found below.

Re: Safe travels to the Big T! -- Joyce Post Reply Edit Forum Where am I?
We've been going to Tucson for 30 years. We sold our beads at two shows for a number of years. The Pueblo Inn for 20 years. Now The Riverpark but that name has changed again. A must see show for all the great dealers there. The Whole Bead Show. The Best Bead Show.
Of course we bought many a vintage glass bead from Ben Eagle. Was it $70/kilo? Ben's been discovered by the known world. His paintings from the 60's are now at Princeton and in the homes of rich folks. Chipita's still doing trade shows. Ben gave up Tucson a couple years ago for a number of reasons. Stone Mountain Colorado is his company. He writes an interesting blog on E-Blast. Easy to locate on google.
Another one not to miss is The African Village and BWANACON/Steve Cohn. The African Village moved to a new location last year. Much better spot, Congress and the I10 frontage road.
There's something like 90 shows happening in Tucson in late January and February. I LOVE this forum. The liveliest one on the WWW. For sure.


Last year, chilled-out Vancouver outfit Mesa Luna emerged with a debut 7-inch. And while their discography remains small, they have added to their output with a new song called "Sputnik," and Exclaim! has the premiere.
The dreamy electronic cut ambles along with aqueous synth swirls and slow-paced beats, while the hazy vocals are nestled deep with the mix. And yet, despite the relaxed vibe, there's a faint hint of uneasiness to the clanking programming and dense electronic textures.
Listen to the song below. For those who want to hear it in the flesh, Mesa Luna will perform at 303 Columbia tomorrow night (May 14).


When a certain Canadian Special Operations force wanted a knife that would serve them well if they were in the Hindu Kush or a great boreal forest of Canada, they contacted Spartan Blades. From what I have experienced while evaluating the Spartan Harsey Difensa, they came to the right people. The 1st SSF suffered 77 percent causalities to accomplish what had been considered an almost impossible mission. In case you are not familiar with Spartan Blades, here is some background on the company and the two men who run it.
Army Special Forces (SF) NCOs; both were snipers and have worked overseas as contractors on personal security details for well-known government agencies. With the Difensa's scabbard, you can adjust that fit until the retention strap is as tight as you want it.
The blade is flat ground and is 0.187 inches thick, with a point that allows for excellent penetration. Spartan Blades is also known for using highly qualified experts in the design of their knives.
The full-tang handle is covered with slabs of textured black or green Micarta that provide a safe and secure grip with or without gloves on (an important feature during Canadian winters). The handle is 5.25 inches long, with an exposed lanyard hole and jimping on top of the blade, at the front of the handle.

This morning I took a bus into town and had a nice walk in posh Ponsonby. Summer has truly arrived now and there are agapanthus flowers everywhere. The jacaranda trees are just dropping their petals but they still look pretty impressive with their violet blooms. I found a shady place to sit outside the Mercy Hospice to draw this uphill view of the former Ponsonby Post Office. It's a listed building which now houses a bistro.
I love your writing. Truly great.
Your sketches are just amazing. Discover-d you and glad I stopped by. Such a great blog you have got.

IHC Considers Banning Facebook Over Blasphemous Content
March 22, 2017 by Webdesk in About
Chief Justice Islamabad High Court (IHC) Justice Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui on Wednesday revealed that the court would take a decision about whether social media websites in Pakistan, providing a platform to blasphemous content, should be banned or not during the next hearing on March 27.
The court, while hearing a case pertaining to the dissemination of blasphemous content through social media, also asked the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) to submit its latest findings in this regard in the form of a report next Monday.
During the hearing today, the DG Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) informed the court that they have completed their inquiry and have also registered a case two days ago.
One suspected person was also arrested on suspicion of sharing and spreading blasphemous content via social media, added the DG FIA in front of the court.
"A mobile phone and a laptop have also been recovered from the suspect's possession which now rests with forensic officials," said the FIA official while giving additional details of the arrest.
The DG FIA apprised the IHC that the agency was keeping at least three suspects under constant surveillance and that the names of a few more suspected persons were also placed on the Exit Control List (ECL).
He said that the FIA had also expressed Pakistan's reservations with blasphemous, objectionable content with Facebook's management team. He confirmed that the social media giant had agreed to send a delegation to resolve Pakistan's concerns with the content on its website.
The DG FIA assured the court that the Facebook management was willing to help Pakistan but requires some time to look into the matter.
Justice Siddiqui, remarked that time should be given to the Facebook management and until then he insisted that "it was important to ban Facebook in Pakistan."
Earlier this month, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had ordered that "blasphemous" content on social media websites be removed or blocked and those posting such material "strictly punished."
The Interior minister Chaudhry Nisar has also said that the government authorities would do everything possible to take action against blasphemers.

The 10 best animated films released in 2017
Before 2017 comes to an end, we continue with our review of the highlights that have gone through the billboards in Spain, yes, by genre. You already know our Top Ten horror, our Top 10 action and now it's the turn of the best animated cinema in which we have had various exponents.
10. Ferdinand
With heart and fun, Ferdinand adapts "The Story of Ferdinand" by American writer Munro Leaf. Its environmental and pacifist message continues to be the order of the day and, although it will require an extra effort on the part of adults to make children understand certain things, it is likely that they will receive this adventure with all the naturalness in the world.
9. The Smurfs: The Hidden Village
Pleasant colorful family comedy, likeable and with the intention of breaking a spear for equality also within the universe of Peyo. Undoubtedly the best Smurf movie to date: great idea to focus on a fully animated project, with no live action parts.
8. Cars 3
Far from the great Pixar productions, this third installment of Cars gives the saga a good ending and manages, at least, to establish itself as the least boring of all of them and the one that best understands the world of F1. It is a good proposal. familiar with interesting background values such as that not everything is to win at any price and if you already get the boxing metaphor with the nod to the Rocky saga, you may be surprised by the layers that an (apparently) simple animated film has.
7. Captain Underpants: His First Movie
Refreshing family comedy very appropriate for small audiences, and especially for those who have started reading the cartoons by Berto and Jorge. It has scatological-childish humor that they will find funny and it also has some points for the older ones to enjoy, so it is a good plan to have a good time. Another of the qualities of Captain Underpants is his ability to play with metalanguage, something already present in Pilkey's work that has been able to be transferred with great success, such as the moment in which the protagonists consider the film closed and some titles appear. of credit or when that ellipsis occurs to protect the little ones and we see everything through their drawings until they run out of paper.
6. Crane: My Favorite Villain 3
Our favorite villain is back and with a lot of company… I am referring, of course, to those yellow beings who, with permission from The Simpsons , have captivated young and old alike. The film works without being as efficient as the second installment but managing to provide hilarious moments.
5. The Boss Baby
With a very funny opening and a satisfying conclusion, this animated film aims more at parents than children when it comes to elaborating its premise with huge doses of frantic action. Among the great successes, the visual style, in which you will find something of the endearing aspect of movies like Toy Story and also some of the overflowing madness of the Cartoon Network series (with some passage that brings Samurai Jack to mind for not go too far). Read like there is a fun compendium of animation styles that does the film good, giving it rhythm and pulling nostalgia.
4. Batman: The LEGO Movie
Less metalinguistic than The LEGO Movie with which Phil Lord and Christopher Miller so pleasantly surprised us in 2014 and perhaps a little less ingenious as well, it also manages to catch us very soon thanks to the approach they give to this Batman which, by the way, is the best version we've had on screen in a long time.
3. Coco
The new Pixar movie (number 19 already!) is not perfect, but it is risky and beautiful and not only on an aesthetic level, but also. It has a fairly adult approach that makes it recommendable for children over 12 years of age, at least, due to the depth of the topics it deals with: forgiveness, memory, legacy… The little ones may not understand the depth of the approach , but they will also find effective entertainment in the film. Human and likeable, Pixar's new proposal combines respect for Mexican tradition and culture with a universal message: "remember me and I will live forever." Despite its colorful packaging and its formulaic development, it hides a deep message and intoxicates you with its emotional climax.
The mixture of romance and fantastic drama is one of the hallmarks of this work by director Makoto Shinkai (The Garden of Words), whose script is based on his own novel of the same title. The landscapes are something more than a mere visual background: they are part of the story, they allow us to delve into that game of dualities in the film. The rural environment in front of the big city, the feminine identity as opposed to the masculine, the tradition in front of the modernity…
1. In this corner of the world
Winner of the highest award from the Japanese Academy for the best animated film of 2016, included in the list of the best of Japanese cinema by the prestigious magazine Kinema Junpo and warmly received by audiences in his country, where it premiered on November 21 of the year past, is one of those films that we highly recommend due to the sensitivity it shows towards the reality it portrays and how exciting it is at all levels. Traditional animation is the film's great ally, very faithful to the aspect of the manga to the point of reproducing it almost completely, but where it wins the most is with the introduction of those passages in which Suzu's passion for drawing and painting are the protagonists: we can see the characters walking through a drawn landscape.

Victory for the controversial star would cap a remarkable turnaround.
Controversial X Factor star Honey G is now among the favourites to win the contest after bookmakers slashed odds on the rapper completing a sensational turnaround.
Originally dismissed as a parody act by both the public and X Factor boss Simon Cowell, Honey G has gradually won over the viewers and judges alike – leading to a standing ovation last week.
Critics, however, claim the contestant, a self-proclaimed "North Weezy" resident, represents nothing more than cultural appropriation.
But now it seems public support is fully behind Honey G, particularly after last night's performance of Kriss Kross' 1993 classic Jump, with bookmakers slashing odds on the former recruitment manager – real name Anna Gilford – winning the competition.
Exclusive odds revealed to IBTimes UK by Paddy Power suggest that the privately educated rapper may be well on her way to the prize money and a much-converted recording contract.
Spokesperson Lee Price said: "Honey G was a 40/1 long shot to win the competition before the first X Factor finals show, but has been slashed in price several times ever since.
"Currently, she is 10/1 to win – meaning the odds of her winning have been cut by a quarter.
"I know most novelty acts usually can't sing, but she can't rap either – and yet everyone, including Simon Cowell, loved her performance last night.
"And I hope she goes all the way in the competition. Seeing her tackle Big Band week would really be spectacular."
And it seems the 35-year-old may need the money. Mail Online claim she is currently unable to repay a £1,000 debt to the recruitment company she worked for recently went out of business.
A letter reportedly sent by Gilford to Intelligent Business Transfer in October and obtained by The Sunday People, reads: "I have no assets and no money in the company. I cannot afford to pay your bill.
"I have also taken indefinite leave from my business to compete in the live finals of X Factor.
"I'm looking now to leave my business and pursue a full-time career as a rap music artist. Sorry."

"FIH Pro League will serve as good preparation for Olympics," says Indian Men's Hockey Team's drag-flicker Rupinder Pal Singh
New Delhi, 07 November 2019: The recently concluded FIH Hockey Olympic Qualifiers Odisha saw both the Indian Men's and Women's Hockey Teams come out on top, and secure their respective berths in next year's Olympic Games to be held in Tokyo, but one man had one extra reason to celebrate. Indian Men's Hockey Team's experienced drag-flicker Rupinder Pal Singh featured for the Indian Men's Hockey Team after a long lay-off away from the national side, and his performances in the two matches helped the team in defeating World No. 22 Russia 11-3 on aggregate.
The 28-year-old Defender spoke about his return to the Indian team. "It was an amazing feeling to be back in the India blue after having missed out on some major tournaments last year. I was determined to perform well for my team, and make sure that we secured our place in the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. Russia gave us a tough fight, but we showed our quality in the end and secured the two wins. The comeback was good for me, and it now gives me a lot of confidence to do better in the upcoming season," said Rupinder who serves as a Manager for a government bank in Chennai, and reported for duty after helping India secure their place in the Tokyo Olympics.
Looking forward to the Indian Men's Team's prospects of playing in the FIH Pro League for the first time early next year, the experienced drag-flicker said it will be a good test for his side. "The FIH Pro League was a great success in its first edition, and we are all very excited to be a part of it next year. These matches will be a great test for us, especially playing against the best teams from around the world. We will be hosting as well as touring some very strong teams in the next eight months, and I can't wait to start our preparations for the same," said Rupinder.
"Our aim was to make sure we qualified for the Olympics, and now that we have secured our place, it is now time to put everything into preparing for the Olympic Games. We have nine months to prepare for the quadrennial event, and playing in the FIH Pro League will serve as good preparation for us. We will be able to determine where we stand against the top teams, and we will have enough time to make improvements and corrections in our game leading up to the Olympics," said the drag-flicker from Faridkot, Punjab.
The Indian Men's Hockey Team is scheduled to return for the next Training and Conditioning Camp on 18th November 2019 in Bhubaneswar as they look to focus on their fitness ahead of next year's FIH Pro League. "We have a three-week conditioning camp in Bhubaneswar where we will be given a debrief of our FIH Hockey Olympic Qualifiers, and will then focus on keeping our bodies ready for the new season. In this crucial phase, injury prevention is also a key area for us, and we will look to place special emphasis on our fitness as we regroup for bigger goals next year," concluded Rupinder.

What's Happening? Check the Auto Industry!
The U.S. auto industry is a good indicator of a lot of current trends. Like many industries, it has to continually reinvent itself to keep up with consumer and manufacturing trends, as our lead feature by Bill Koenig on page 41 explains. It is also being buffeted by political trends, as negotiations on the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) among the U.S., Canada and Mexico may—or may not—upend a very complex supply chain.
Likewise, the Trump administration wants to freeze U.S. fuel economy goals, while California—the most populous U.S. state—wants them to continue to climb. And automakers may be keeping a wary eye on what's happening over at Harley-Davidson Inc. After the EU announced tariffs on motorcycles made in the U.S. in retaliation for U.S. tariffs, Harley-Davidson said it would move some manufacturing overseas, only to be threatened by a boycott by some U.S. motorcycle buyers.
self-driving vehicles have captured the imagination of the public, but the former may lead to fewer people buying cars and latter may be a sinkhole for R&D investment.
As we mull these macro trends, what's happening to automaking itself? For one, small, powerful combustion engines and advanced transmissions will continue to be developed, and the focus on weight reduction will remain. Likewise, despite uncertain demand, there will be increased development of electric and hybrid vehicles, as Geoff Giordano explains on page 50.
This trend will likely lead to major changes in the supply chain. For example, as Bill Koenig reports, Eaton Corp. formed a new eMobility business, which combined products and plants from its electrical and vehicle units. The company will invest more than $500 million over five years to develop new products for vehicle electrification.
Likewise, advances in aluminum are changing welding and riveting pro-cesses, and automakers are learning how to join dissimilar materials.
Clearly, automakers have a lot on their plate. Will overall demand for cars and trucks decline due to self-driving vehicles and ride-sharing? Will trade and tariff issues roil the waters even more, or will things settle down? How will vehicle development process change to keep up with these and other trends? Will I ever be able to spell the word tariff without SpellCheck? Stay tuned!

Defiant conservatives still fighting Trump's health bill
Undaunted by fellow Republicans' defiance, GOP leaders and the White House redoubled their efforts Tuesday to muscle legislation overhauling America's health care system through Congress following a sobering report about millions being shoved off insurance coverage.
WASHINGTON — Undaunted by fellow Republicans' defiance, GOP leaders and the White House redoubled their efforts Tuesday to muscle legislation overhauling America's health care system through Congress following a sobering report about millions being shoved off insurance coverage.
President Donald Trump, whose strong Election Day showing in GOP regions makes him the party's ultimate Capitol Hill vote wrangler, discussed the legislation by phone with Congress' two top Republicans. He also dispatched Vice President Mike Pence and health secretary Tom Price to hear GOP senators' concerns.
With a crucial House committee voted slated for Thursday, Trump's spokesman acknowledged they were open to making changes to win support.
"This has never been a take it or leave it," said Press Secretary Sean Spicer.
The GOP bill is the party's response to seven years of promising to repeal President Barack Obama's 2010 health care overhaul. It would undo that law's individual mandate, which requires most people to have coverage, by ending the tax penalty on those who don't.
It would also provide age-based tax credits instead of the subsidies geared to income in Obama's statute, end that law's expansion of Medicaid and curb its future spending, and let insurers boost rates for seniors.
On Monday, the Congressional Budget Office said the Republican legislation would reduce the ranks of the insured by 24 million in a decade, largely by cutting Medicaid recipients and people buying individual policies. That would be more than the 20 million who've gained coverage under Obama's overhaul — and attach a big number to a problem haunting GOP governors and members of Congress whose states have benefited from "Obamacare."
"I plan to vote NO" on the GOP bill, Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., tweeted Tuesday. "As written the plan leaves too many from my #SoFla district uninsured."
The budget office report also said the measure would reduce federal deficits by $337 billion over the next decade, largely by cutting Medicaid, the health insurance program for the poor, and eliminating Obama's subsidies for low- and middle-income people. The report said that the bill's changes would result in federal subsidies that would fall to half their current size in a decade and that older, lower-earning people would be hit especially hard.
Those findings further energized Democrats, who already were unanimously opposing the GOP repeal effort and showing no sign of relenting.
"Of course you can have savings if you cut off millions of people from access to health care," said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California. She said the measure's shift of billions of dollars from lower- to higher-earning families actually would effectively transfer money from GOP to Democratic regions, and, seemingly taunting Republicans, she added, "Explain that to your constituents.
No. 3 Senate leader John Thune, R-S.D., said he was working on a proposal to devote more of the GOP tax cut to lower-earning people. It would currently begin phasing out for people earning $75,000 annually.
"It'd be nice to add it to the House bill, but if necessary it'd be in the Senate," Thune said of his plan.

One of the primary obstacles to implementing a storage network cited by enterprise IT managers is a lack of knowledge about storage networking technology and the specific issues involved in extending a Storage Area Network (SAN) or Network Attached Storage (NAS) over the Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN) or Wireless Area Networks (WAN). This text addresses the terminology gap between enterprise network planners and telecommunications engineers, who must understand the transport requirements of storage networks in order to implement distributed storage networks. It comprehensively provides IT managers, planners and telecommunications professionals with the information they need in order to choose the technologies best suited for their particular environment.


Behold the awe-inspring Walt Disney Concert Hall! Home of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, the concert hall opened its doors in 2003. Designed by one of the masters, Mr. Frank Gehry.
After checking out the "Art In The Streets" exhibit at the MOCA, I needed to make the trip up about 10 blocks to take photos of this beautiful building. It was extremely hot that day, we were hungry and I was still battling a bout of food poisoning. Needless to say, this shoot was rushed but it was still very inspiring!


"If the rest of 2019 continues at a similar pace, this year will be on track to exceed last year's discovered resources by 30%," says Taiyab Zain Shariff, Upstream Analyst at Rystad Energy.
Meanwhile, Repsol's operated Kali Berau Dalam gas find in Indonesia takes the prize for the largest onshore discovery of the quarter.
From a global perspective, the push for substantial new discoveries shows no signs of slowing down, with another 35 high impact exploration wells expected to be drilled this year, both onshore and offshore. Three such highly prospective wells are already underway: the Shell-operated Peroba well, off Brazil, with pre-drill prospective resource estimates of 5.3 billion boe; Eni's Kekra well in Pakistani waters, with pre-drill prospective resource estimates of 1.5 billion boe; and the Total-operated Etzil well off Mexico, with pre-drill prospective resource estimates of 2.7 billion boe.
"If these wells prove successful, 2019's interim discovered resources will be the largest since the downturn in 2014," Shariff remarked.

Home News POP! Andy Warhol Comes to Life
POP! Andy Warhol Comes to Life
What began as the thesis of two New York University graduate students is now making its debut at The Studio Theatre in Washington, D.C. (1501 14th St. NW) on July 13 and running through August 7.
Maggie-Kate Coleman (the research enthusiast) and Anna K. Jacobs (the pop culture aficionada) found a happy medium when writing POP! because they share an interest in the '60s and are fascinated by the artistic influence and mystery of Andy Warhol. The musical revolves around one of the most traumatic incidents of Warhol's life—when a deranged groupie shoots him at his home-for-misfits-hangout called The Factory.
"Our play is framed as almost a film noir mystery where Andy deals with the trauma of being shot by turning it into a piece of pop art," explains Coleman. "It's by no means a biopic or historical piece. And the great thing about using the '60s and this real-life traumatic incident as source material is that there is no reliable narrator because Andy is notorious for falsifying his life."
Viewers can expect to gain a better understanding of Warhol and how he created art using his own friends as the subjects—a habit that caused detrimental consequences in his life. The musical score is just as dramatic. All the songs were written by Jacobs and feature, "Lyrics made up of pop idioms as well as every genre from country rock to '60s funk to high Catholic mass," says Jacobs.
Although the protagonist is Warhol, the cast, "Creates an ensemble piece where they all want things from Andy, and he struggles to follow through on all their expectations," adds Jacobs.
The cast includes: Tom Story (Andy Warhol), Matthew Delorenzo (Candy Darling), Rachel Zampelli (Valerie), Deborah Lubega (Viva), Marylee Adams (Edie Sedgwick), Sean Maurice Lynch (Ondine), and Luke Tudball (Gerard).r
Getting to The Studio Theatre is easy; patrons have the option of taking the metro, driving and parking in the Colonial Garage, or even requesting cab service directly through the theater. For more information, visit studiotheatre.org or call 202-332-3300.

International College, a small, private, non-traditional and unaccredited college, was founded in Los Angeles in the early 1970s by Linden G. Leavitt. It was licensed to issue degrees by the California State Department of Education and its degrees were recognized by several dozen other schools - reportedly including Harvard and Johns Hopkins - but its attempts to attain accreditation never came to fruition. The college was reported to have 174 students in 1978 and 350 students in 1980. It had no classrooms, libraries or laboratories, but its administrative offices were located at 1019 Gayley Avenue in Los Angeles. It ceased operations in 1986 and its students were transferred to another unaccredited college, William Lyon University.  Operating in the pre-internet period, the college had a business model that was ahead of its time.

As its motto, In Vestigiis Institutorum Antiquorum indicated, the college followed the methods of the first universities, where students were paired with outstanding tutors.  Students could earn credit studying at different universities before completing their dissertation.   Many of the works of its students were published by the College under the imprint Guild of Tutors Press.

In the area of economics, the late Dr. Hans F. Sennholz was one of the tutors who participated over many years, graduating students of renown in the field of economic education and public policy. One example is Alejandro Chafuen, president and CEO of Atlas Economic Research Foundation since 1991 and president and founder of the Hispanic American Center of Economic Research. Another is Juan Carlos Cachanosky, a renowned professor in Argentina and Guatemala.

Also in the field of economics, Robert L. Bradley, Jr., founder of the Institute for Energy Research received his degree from leading libertarian theorist Murray N. Rothbard.

The college had a worldwide faculty of tutors in other areas as well, such as: Leonard Bernstein in music; Anaïs Nin in writing; Buckminster Fuller in Design Science; Yehudi Menuhin in Music; Kenneth Rexroth in Poetry; Sulvain Auroux in the Philosophy of Science; Linguistics, and Philosophy; Dr. Arthur Lerner in Poetry Therapy; Lehman Engel in Musical Theory; Dr. Norman Feingold in Counseling Psychology; Dr. Anne de Vore in Transpersonal Psychology; Dr. Nick Warren in Physics; Dr. Melinda Lorenz in Art History; Dr. Bruce Weber in Biochemistry; Dr. Peter Warshall in Natural History; Dr. Edward de Bono in Education and Psychology; Dr. John Seeley in Behavioral Science; Dr. Russell Lockhart in The Analytical and Archetypal Psychology of C.G.Jung; Dr. Hal Stone in Clinical Psychology; and Dr. Frederick Burwick in Literature and the Natural Sciences.

Q: Builder pattern multiple varargs I'm reading up Joshua Bloch's 'Effective Java' where in Item 2, he mentions the advantages of using Builder pattern when dealing with several parameters in the constructor. All's good, until I saw the multiple var-args difference between the conventional constructor and this pattern.
So, I have some doubts regarding it :

*

*How does builder pattern allows for multiple var-args?

*Why does a conventional constructor allows for only a single var-arg?
(Maybe due to the fact that it'll cause ambiguity in case there are multiple var-args, when the defined data type for both is same, but I'm not sure this is the correct reason behind it.)

I haven't used var-args in my code though, but yes I know their use. Still I'm unable to understand the reason behind above statements.
Any help would be appreciated.

A: No method signature (constructors included) allows for multiple varargs. There can be only one, and it has to be the last argument.
That is just a limitation in the language specification. And yes, the reason for that is likely that it can become ambiguous very fast if you allowed more flexibility.
In the builder pattern, there is no such limitation, as every parameter can get its own method.
  builder
    .withOptions("a", "b", "c")   // varargs
    .withColors("red", "blue")    // more varargs
    .build();


Bruggen Blog: An easier, better, tastier (!) BeerGraphGuide in the Neo4j Browser!
An easier, better, tastier (!) BeerGraphGuide in the Neo4j Browser!
I recently wrote two blogposts about a fancy new way to create "Guides" right in the Neo4j Browser - a system that we at Neo have used ourselves to create learning experiences for the Neo4j Graph Database - but that we are now also extending and making available to our community and Enterprise customers. The first post showed you what the result was, and the second post showed you how easy it was to create such a guide. And of course, since this is still all very new and under development by the inimitable Michael Hunger, it is still evolving at warp speed.
So that's why I am adding a third post to this series, based on the lastest version of Michael's github repo. In this version, he has added a much more convenient way to serve the HTML page that we use as the basis for the Browser Guide: we essentially don't need a CORS-enabled webserver anymore - we can just use the webserver that is already baked into Neo4j and which the Browser already uses. Michael did this by developing an unmanaged extension that picks up the HTML file from a local directory, and then serves it when you call the :play command in the browser. So how does it work? Let's show you.
You will find the extension on the github repo under the "guide-extension" directory. Michael has added some detailed installation instructions if you would be able and willing to compile the software yourself - but he has also added a compiled version link for Neo4j Enterprise 2.3.2. You can download the .jar file, and then just add this to the right directory of your Neo4j Enterprise 2.3.2 installation: the "plugins" subdirectory.
Once you have that, we do still need to do a few manual interventions to activate and enable the extension.
The extension assumes that you add a new directory in the "data" directory of your Neo4j installation: "guides". Once you have created that, you can copy the HTML file that I had created in the previous post, into this directory - this is where we will serve all future Guides from.
Then we need to make a few more easy configs to the neo4j-server.properties file in the ./conf directory of your Neo4j installation.
Michael has not added a way to authenticate to the server yet, and therefore you just turn the dbms.security.auth_enabled switch from true to false.
In order to load the extension from a specific URL (in this case: http://localhost:7474/guides) we add property to the neo4j-server.properties file.
You could of course configure these differently if that would be useful.
simply allow ANY server with a "*"
Hope you like this as much as I did. Big kudos to Michael, again - and I look forward to seeing your Guides somewhere in our community.

Full service, industry specific bookkeeping made simple.
We understand law offices have unique bookkeeping needs and record keeping requirements that are put forward by the Bar Association and other regulating authorities. Let us help you and your practice succeed.
Independently employed attorneys and small law offices have unique Law Firm Bookkeeping needs and record keeping requirements that are put forward by the Bar Association and other regulating authorities. Standard rules and common practice dictate that attorneys must use client trust accounts to hold attorney fees received in advance for services that will be rendered at a later date. These funds have to stay in the lawyers' trust accounts until they are earned and therefore are no longer the property of the client. Attorneys can also hold client funds received from settlements as a settlement check is often payable jointly to the attorney and to the client. This scenario also requires the use of holding accounts. The type of accounts attorneys have to maintain depends on the amount to be held and how long the attorney anticipates holding the funds.
From a bookkeeping standpoint, this concept is easy to follow for an industry-specialized expert, but not for somebody who lacks experience with this specific niche. Small law firms don't have the need to hire an in-house bookkeeper but in order to stay in compliance with the rules and regulations, best practice is to leave the books to a specialized Law Firm bookkeeper who understands the unique challenges attorneys face much better than a general bookkeeper could.

Bookkeeping services are one of the fast rising industries of today because more and more companies are seeing the benefits that it brings. Bookkeeping is a very aspect for any law firm be it small or large firms. What makes bookkeeping important would leave us with a long list that would make any law firm owner who doesn't have a bookkeeper think twice. We are going to point out the importance of law-firms hiring a reliable and Professional Law Firm Bookkeeper, who will provide law-firm owners with high quality records of their law firms' financial situations.
A Lawyer bookkeeper is a company or an individual who keeps records of all the financial transactions that take place in a company or an institution. A bookkeeper will keep records of what the company/institution buys, sells, the debs and debtors and what the company/institution owns. Expert Attorney Bookkeepers also take care of all the financial transactions, invoices, payments etc. and ensuring they reconcile with the bank records. Basically, book keepers are in charge of all aspects of finance in your company.
Bookkeeping for Lawyers plays a big role when it comes to the industry of accounting and finance. In the present day, there is a tough competition in the corporate world and in order for any business to stay in good shape, effective and practical techniques must be applied for it to endure an unpredictable global economy. For those who own law-firms, one of the things that they mostly worry about is the cost needed to help run the operation. After all, we need money to make money, therefore, ensuring that every department of the law firm has the resources and equipment they need to keep it running. The accounting department is one of the most crucial branches in any law firm. But nowadays, law firm business owners are looking for ways to increase their productivity and profit but at the same time cut down on operation costs. But with the rise of outsourcing services, even bookkeeping has been given the chance to withstand the challenges of most businesses.
One of the things that make Law Firm Bookkeeping services very important for a law firm is its task on recording and updating accounting books and records. Having an organized book record is important for any law firm owner because this serves as the very proof that a business is running and these records will speak for themselves. This is because it is the reflection of whether a business is making a profit or not. Based on these records, a law firm owner will be able to easily check the status of his or her company and see if it is making it to the good profit or margin or if it's going down the drain of being bankrupt. The book records will also serve as a basis for decision making if the law firm is ready to expand or not, and other future plans that can determine if the business will make it.
Furthermore, hiring an outsourced bookkeeping service is flexible and cost-effective making it easy for law firm owners to manage their resources thereby allowing them to concentrate more on parts of the law firm that will allow them to generate more income at the same time save money. Giving outsource bookkeeping means lesser cost on employees because you no longer have to worry about training and hiring and spending money to buy for facilities.
Also don't forget that your Best Lawyer Bookkeeper has a profound understanding of all sorts of private information of your business, so it is extremely important that you establish a solid relationship of trust. Make sure that you have the feeling of good connection with your bookkeeper after the first meeting. It is recommended to meet up with your bookkeeper several times before you engage yourself with him/her, so that you can discover exactly how you feel towards him/her, and if you can trust him/her completely.
It is also important to come to a clear agreement on both your roles and expectation within your organization. There is a wide variety of roles which can be performed by a bookkeeper so it is important for you to clearly set out what exactly are your requirements and expectations.
Once you have agreed on all of this, you will have to provide your bookkeeper with the information that he/she will need in order to get the job done properly. There might be some information which you would rather not share with your bookkeeper, and this is perfectly fine, as long as you make sure that he/she is aware of this.
Moreover, your Law Firms Bookkeeper needs to have a clear understanding of your law firm. Each law firm has different terms, conditions and internal aspects that can only be learned on the job, so it is advised to choose someone who has a certain level of experience in book keeping for law firms. A good level of communication skills is also paramount for a bookkeeper. He/she needs to be there at any time to help you and give you advice on any issue. And if there are some problems understanding certain aspects of your law firm, he/she has to be open to ask for help or explanation.
Hiring an expert bookkeeper for lawyers who you only meet a couple of times a year will never have a clear understanding of what's going on in your law firm. It's essential that you find someone who will make your business a priority and who maintains a great level of interaction with your business. Bookkeeping for law firms requires a great amount of concentration, accuracy, frequent contact and interaction, the need for initiative and the skill to multi-task, since there will often be different duties and responsibilities for the book keepers.
With the wide variety of tasks involved in running a law firm, and bookkeeping being crucial, law firm owners should always consider using bookkeeping services.You can easily contact different service providers and ask them about their specialization and offered services. Also, ask them about the software that they use in book keeping. Generally, companies use software like Quick Books, Peachtree, Quicken, Sage Line 50, MOB, EXACT, IRS, Rent Manager, Net Suite, Lacerate and more. One thing is for sure that Atlanta accountant presents you with well-maintained and flawless financial records in order to help you get a clear view about your business and how you are growing and performing in the market, making it easier for you to decide future strategies and plans.

Russian airstrike kills 9
An airstrike killed at least nine people, including two children, in the Ukrainian city of Sumy, where a humanitarian corridor was to be set up today, authorities said. The AFP News Agency reports that the corridor from Sumy to Poltava is designed to evacuate civilians, including Chinese, Indians, and other foreigners, but Ukraine's vice prime minister accused Russia of planning to disrupt the route. The airstrike in Sumy, near the Russian border east of the Ukrainian capital Kyiv, took place late Monday.

The Corvette Factories, Building America's Sports Car
by Mike Mueller
Mike Mueller has scavenged the General Motors Media Archives and we are the better for it. His 192 page book, The Corvette Factories: Building America's Sports Car is filled with more than 300 photographs, 150 in color, that start out to tell the story of the three factories that have built America's sportscar, but in the end provide a detailed history of the famed fiberglass flyer.
This is not Mueller's first book about Corvettes; in fact he has written almost a dozen of them over the past decade and a half. This is not a bad thing as it means the information provided in The Corvette Factories has been well-vetted by editors and enthusiasts. The long history of the Corvette has thus already been covered elsewhere by the author and by others. This new book, which combines photographs from the earliest production efforts with present day shots of cars from notable Corvette collectors, along with Mueller's research, contributes additional dimension to the Corvette story.
Corvettes sit in a sort of nether world between the guys with gold chains and real car enthusiasts. Despite a long history stretching to drag strip success and road racing victories in places like Daytona, Sebring, and Le Mans, the car's detractors cite its broad blue-collar appeal as evidence that it isn't a real sportscar. This is unfortunate, because even the earliest Blue-Flame Special six-cylinder powered Corvette from 1953, with its automatic transmission and white-wall tires was, in reality, more than a match for many of the pukka British roadsters.
Most of us think we know something about the history of the Corvette. That it was GM's first production experience with fiberglass, or that it originally was provided with a six-cylinder engine and that no plans were in place to power it with a V-8. Other tidbits, like the fact that although Zora Arkus-Duntov is considered by many to be the "father" of the Corvette, the reality that he wasn't even around during its conception might be new to those of us not steeped in Corvette lore. Mueller, quoting Arkus-Duntov and other sources explains that GM's legendary vice president in charge of styling, Harley Earl, should get the credit for GM's new baby. Working for Earl, Bob McLean led a small group of designers developing the concepts in 1952 for GM's Motorama show that opened at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in January 1953. Zora Arkus-Duntov didn't start working at General Motors until May of 1953.
And here is another tidbit: The frame and suspension for the first Corvette was designed by another GM legend, Maurice Olley. The vehicle dynamics genius whipped up a sturdy frame and suspension system in just ten days, using many in-stock and proven Chevrolet components to avoid the need for extensive testing. This is information that is no doubt available in other places, but Mueller pulls it together in this tightly written package.
Despite their long history sitting atop Chevrolet's product line, Corvettes have been produced in only three factories. The first 300 cars were built in a makeshift facility in Flint, Michigan in 1953. Production moved to St Louis when it went full-scale in 1954, and remained there until 1981, when Corvette production was relocated to Bowling Green, Kentucky. Building Corvettes in each of these three plants is well documented in the book with detailed black and white and color photographs of workers building fiberglass sportscars.
If Mueller had merely summarized the production facilities, the book would have been interesting to Corvette fans. But by going much further than this he has produced a book that is fascinating even if you have never fallen under the car's spell. There have been six generations of the Corvette, and each is covered in great detail describing not only how the cars were made and by whom, but providing information about options, colors, special models, accompanied by quotes from contemporary magazine stories. Mueller even tours the National Corvette Museum, located across the street from the Bowling Green factory.
Life has not always been easy for the Corvette. The oil crisis and exhaust emission legislation in the 1970s strangled much of the performance from its V-8 engine. Then a $24.2 billion loss in 1992 for GM had the company seriously considering pulling the plug on its sportscar, even as the 1 millionth Corvette was rolling off the Bowling Green assembly plant in July of that year. But the Corvette survived and the C5 and C6 generations of the car are often mentioned in the same sentences as the best from Porsche and Ferrari.
The Corvette Factories isn't the first book written about Corvettes, nor will it be the last. In a scant 192 pages however, Mike Mueller has managed to make The Corvette Factories a book that deserves your consideration.

Lynna Banning combines a lifelong love of history and literature into a satisfying career as a writer. Born in Oregon, she has lived in Northern California most of her life. Currently she lives in Felton, near Roaring Camp in the Santa Cruz Mountains, with her two canaries.
Lynna graduated from Watsonville High School, where her father taught English, and from Scripps College in Claremont, California, before embarking on her first career as an editor and technical writer for Stanford Research Institute and later for Lockheed. She also taught English and journalism at Santa Cruz High School for a number of years.
An amateur pianist and harpsichordist, Lynna performs on psaltery, harp, and recorders with two medieval music groups and coaches ensembles in her spare time.
Lynna's first novel, Western Rose, based on Oregon family history, was published by Harlequin Historicals in 1996. In 2007, she published her first medieval, Crusader's Lady, set during the Third Crusade,a departure from the Westerns for which she is well known. This was followed by Templar Knight: Forbidden Bride in 2008. She returned to her western roots with Lady Lavender in February 2011, followed by The Bride and The Bandit in 2012 and Smoke River Bride in 2013.
Lynna loves to hear from her readers. You may write to her at P.O. Box 324, Felton, CA, 95018, or you may e-mail her at carowoolston at att dot net.
