Forlorn Hope | Lush Wine Blog: Read it. Drink it.
LUSH West Town has been in the works for quite some time. From the ground construction takes a bit of time, apparently, and contractors and carpenters, painters, plumbers, and such are a rowdy bunch and take some cajoling to meet deadlines. Throwing booze at them only helps so much, and my super sad face just didn't do it. So, it's been an intense, battling struggle to restrain our anxiety and overflowing joy to be opening a new shop. We are nearly spilling over…just waiting for the dear city to bestow the ultimate gift, the golden ticket of a liquor license. I will absolutely holler at the top of my virtual internet lungs the moment that our status progresses. Oh please, oh please, oh please.
However, in the meantime, alas, I must unfortunately call a halt to our raucous plans for Friday the 13th and kabosh the launch party until another date. Do not fear, free wine, beer and snackies will be available when said party commences. It will be a knee-slapping roof shaking good time. We've got to break the new store in, of course. So, NO go on the grand opening of Lush West Town this week. If we do indeed procure said license, I will throw open the doors and welcome the thirsty, the seekers of knowledge and fun.
Please partake in the good times and show your support of our local little wine shop. We are extremely thrilled to join the West Town neighborhood and the amazing local joints along the way…food, art, and a lively, smart drinking culture. Pop in and say hi; get to know your Lushes. And, we LOVE you.
For future reference, all pertinent details below…LUSH West Town, 1412 West Chicago Avenue, Chicago, IL 60642. 312-666-6900. Holler at rachel@lushwineandspirits.com with questions.
And, for an alternative party plan, join LUSH Roscoe 4-6pm for a vertical Goose Island Bourbon County Stout tasting (06, 07, 08, 09) with a little dash of Matilda and Sophie…good historical lesson, ya know…AND, 6-8pm for a wine tasting with Lagniappe founder Andrew Grossman. We'll be tasting the great Dexter Lake mustache clad wine, Forlorn Hope, and some Argentinian juice.

Alabama's Battle for Second; Conflicting Polls in Missouri;
de Blasio Returns in NY
By Jim Ellis
Alabama Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Huntsville)
Alabama: Battling for Second — Emerson College released a new survey for next Tuesday's Alabama Senate primary, and the results again show that US Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Huntsville) has made a competitive comeback after former President Donald Trump rescinded his endorsement because he felt the congressman was running a poor campaign. For the third time, a recent poll shows Brooks rebounding to a virtual tie for the second runoff position.
For the three contenders, former Business Council of Alabama president and CEO Katie Britt, retired "Black Hawk Down" pilot Mike Durant, and Brooks, advancing to a secondary runoff election is a virtual certainty. In Alabama, candidates must achieve majority support to win a party nomination.
The Emerson College survey (May 15-16; 706 likely Alabama Republican primary voters; live interview; interactive voice response system and text) again finds Britt claiming first place with 32 percent, while Durant and Brooks closely follow with 26 and 25 percent, respectively. In other words, the latter two are in an effective tie for the second position. Assuming no one receives majority support Tuesday, the top two finishers will advance to a June 21 secondary runoff election. The Republican nominee then becomes a lock to succeed the retiring Sen. Richard Shelby (R) in November.
Missouri: Conflicting Polls — Former Gov. Eric Greitens (R), who was forced to resign from office due to a sex scandal and is now dealing with abuse accusations from his ex-wife, has catapulted back into the lead according to a new Survey USA poll. The study (May 11-15; 1,412 likely Missouri general election voters; 642 likely Missouri Republican primary voters; 500 likely Missouri Democratic primary voters; online) projects Greitens to a 26-17-11 percent lead over Attorney General Eric Schmitt and US Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-Harrisonville/Columbia). The Democratic candidates, led by Iraq War veteran Lucas Kunce and philanthropist Trudy Busch Valentine, are all lagging around the 10 percent mark in primary support. All Republicans defeat the Democratic candidates in preliminary general election pairings.
This S-USA poll is a significant change from previous polling and is in direct conflict with the latest Remington Research Group survey taken within the same period (May 11-12; 945 likely Missouri Republican primary voters; interactive voice response system). These results find AG Schmitt with a 29 percent lead over Rep. Hartzler's 23 percent, and Greitens trailing with 21 percent. The Missouri primary is Aug. 2.
NY-10: de Blasio, State Senator Announce — The revised New York congressional map has not yet received final judicial approval, but candidates are starting to make moves in anticipation of this being the active 2022 district plan. Because the map pairs NYC Democratic incumbents Carolyn Maloney and Jerry Nadler, another safe Democratic open seat was created adjacent to the hotly contested 12th CD. The new 10th District will be decided in the Democratic primary.
Yesterday, former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced his congressional candidacy, but so did state Sen. Brad Holyman (D-NYC). Assuming the map is approved, this will be a hotly contested primary election that should attract national attention. Because the original congressional map and that of the state Senate were disqualified, the judge postponed the primary election for races in these categories until Aug. 23.
Kansas: High Court Overturns — In April, a Kansas district court disqualified the legislature's congressional map as a partisan gerrymander. Gov. Laura Kelly (D) originally vetoed the map, but the legislature was able to override her action with two-thirds support in both houses. The Kansas state Supreme Court has overturned the lower court ruling, meaning the original map that puts the state's 3rd District, in and around Kansas City, into competitive status is back for the 2022 cycle. Two-term Rep. Sharice Davids (D-Roeland Park) currently represents the district. This seat will again become a 2022 Republican conversion target.
Idaho: Ex-US Rep Defeats Incumbent AG — Former Congressman Raul Labrador, who served four terms in the House, will return to elective office. In the Idaho Republican primary, Labrador unseated the incumbent Attorney General Lawrence Wasden by a substantial 51-38 percent result. Prior to his service in Congress, Labrador was twice elected to the state House of Representatives. He ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2018, losing to current Gov. Brad Little, who also won his primary challenge on Tuesday. After leaving Congress, Labrador was elected as chairman of the Idaho Republican Party.

A Nyelviskolák Szakmai Egyesülete (NYESZE) egy magyarországi egyesület.

Történet
A Nyelviskolák Szakmai Egyesülete (NYESZE) többéves előkészítő munka után a British Council és az USIS támogatásával 1992-ben alakult meg Nyelviskolák Kamarája néven. A korszerű, magas színvonalú, minőségi nyelvoktatásért tenni akaró nyelviskolák és oktatási szakemberek hozták létre.

2016-ban a NYESZE csatlakozott az oktatás megújítását követelő pedagógusokhoz, és sürgette a közoktatás rendszerszintű problémáinak megoldása mellett a felnőtt nyelvoktatás területén tapasztalható állapotok azonnali javítását.

2021-ben Légrádi Tamás szerint a szakma nem értett egyet azzal, hogy ahogy tavaly, úgy idén is kiadták a diplomákat nyelvvizsga nélkül. Légrádi Tamás szerint a nyelvoktatási piac már a koronavírus előtt is átalakulófélben volt, az árakat emelni kellett, ez körülbelül 10-20 százalékos drágulást jelentett a tanfolyamoknál. Egy nyelvóra díja jelenleg (2021) egyéni képzéseknél 4,5-6 ezer forint között alakul, csoportos tanulás esetén pedig 5-7 ezer forintba kerülhet.

Ügyvezető testület
Az ügyvezető testület 2022-ben.

MMM Díj
Matheidesz Mária, a Nyelviskolák Szakmai Egyesülete egykori elnöke az egyesület bevonásával díjat alapított az idegen nyelvet oktató tanárok és nyelvtanuló diákok szakmai munkájának elismerésére, a magyarországi minőségi nyelvoktatás támogatására.

Highlander trilogy (Julianne MacLean) volume 1.
Lady Amelia Templeton would rather die than surrender to a man like Duncan MacLean. He is the fiercest warrior of his clan; her people's sworn enemy; and tonight he is standing over her bed. Eyes blazing, muscles taut, and battle axe gleaming, MacLean has come to kill Amelia's fiance, but once he sees the lovely, innocent Amelia, he decides to take her instead...Stealing the young bride-to-be is the perfect revenge against the man who murdered Duncan's one true love. But Lady Amelia turns out to be more than a pawn of vengeance and war. This brave, beautiful woman touches something deep in Duncan's soul that is even more powerful than a warrior's fury. But when Amelia begins to fall in love with her captor; and surrenders in his arms; the real battle begins.

Detroit Lions' Kenny Golladay becoming great before our eyes

Detroit Lions' Kenny Golladay becoming great before our eyes Detroit Lions' second-year wide receiver Kenny Golladay made all kinds of highlight-reel plays against the Green Bay Packers. Check out this story on Freep.com: https://www.freep.com/story/sports/columnists/jeff-seidel/2018/10/08/detroit-lions-kenny-golladay/1561751002/

You ever see those old grainy film reels showing movie stars going through auditions before they have made it?
That's what it feels like watching Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay right now.
Like we are watching the beginning of something absolutely special.
Golladay is a walking highlight reel, and it's hard to pick his finest moment from Sunday's win over the Green Bay Packers.
Was it the leaping, twisting catch near the sideline?
Was it the stiff arm that flattened a Packer? I don't want to laugh — seriously I don't — but Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, that's gonna leave a mark.
Was it the way he used his body against a defensive back to get wide open in the end zone?
Was it the way he tiptoed down the sideline?
Or was it his unselfishness, going into the box and blocking a linebacker?
More on Lions:
Stock watch: Two defenders ball out, but CBs struggle
What do wins over Packers and Patriots say about Lions?
It's almost impossible to pick one.
Because Golladay did so many things well.
But I gotta go with the stiff arm.

It happened in the first quarter, when Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford lofted a pass toward the sideline.
Golladay went up and snagged it out of the air against Josh Jackson, This, in itself, was a thing of beauty: a twisting, leaping catch that looked more like a ballet move than anything.
Golladay took off and hit Clinton-Dix with a stiff arm.

Ka-whack! Pure power.
"He's unbelievable," tackle Taylor Decker said.
It's like this second-year receiver is maturing in front of our eyes, producing a highlight every time he touches the ball. He's a fantastic blend of power, speed, size and grace.
More from Albom: Lions corral Packers' Aaron Rodgers for a change
"I'm sure when we get back and look at it tomorrow, I'm sure there's still going to be some corrections," Golladay said. "I'm sure we could have probably had a better half. I mean, a couple plays got called back. We played a good half, but I'm sure it could have been a lot better."

In the fourth quarter, the Lions held a 24-14 lead, and it felt like Aaron Rodgers was going to pull off a miracle comeback from being down 24 at the half.
Then, Golladay took over. He lined up on the line of scrimmage, facing Kevin King.
Golladay wiped King to the side — a show of pure force — and slipped into the back of the end zone.
Three Packers could only stand there and watch, as he caught the touchdown and celebrated by throwing the ball into the stands.
"It felt good getting this win, that's what felt good," Golladay said.
Seidel: Lions start new trend with LeGarrette Blount: Toughness, strength
Golladay was targeted nine times and caught four passes for 98 yards and a touchdown on Sunday.
"This is just a game of matchups," Stafford said. "Last week, GT (Golden Tate) went for 100 and whatever, this week Kenny had a big one. Marv (Marvin Jones Jr.) will have a big one next week. That's what makes this offense difficult to defend, we have a lot of guys that can make plays. I was happy that Kenny had some opportunities today and made some big ones. I had a couple chances at some others and for one reason or another those got called back or whatever. So, just proud of the way we fought as a team. Kenny obviously had a nice game."

And that doesn't count the 46-yard touchdown that was called back on an illegal-hands-to-the-face penalty on rookie lineman Frank Ragnow.
"Like I have been saying, whenever my number is called, I'm just trying to make the play," he said. "So if they want to throw it to me five times or four times a game or nine times a game, I just want to make all the plays."
Golladay is oddly quiet for a wide receiver.
The NFL has a long history of brash, big-talking receivers. But that's not Golladay.
I guess he doesn't have to say anything bold.
Not after what he does on the field.

She did not give specifics, but said she supports a ban on semiautomatic, military-style weapons, which she has discussed with her cabinet. Unlike the U.K. or Australia, but like the U.S., New Zealand doesn't have a ban on semiautomatic weapons, although they do require a special license.
In contrast with the U.S., which managed not to pass any federal gun laws even after children were gunned down in the Sandy Hook massacre in 2012, New Zealand, Australia, and the U.K. have acted fast after shootings of this magnitude. New Zealand, similar to the States, makes it very easy to buy guns without registration and has a powerful gun lobby — though not as powerful as the National Rifle Association (NRA).
"It is heartening to see Jacinda Ardern's incredible leadership and how quickly her administration is acting in the wake of this horrific mass shooting," Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action, the grassroots arm of Everytown for Gun Safety, told Refinery29. "We've had at least 200 mass shootings in America since 2009...and yet our leaders have done very little. There's a key difference between New Zealand and the U.S., and that's that we have a gun lobby that uses its power and money to persuade some lawmakers to stand in the way of laws that are proven by data and research to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people."
There's a key difference between New Zealand and the U.S., and that's that we have a gun lobby that uses its power and money to persuade some lawmakers to stand in the way of laws that keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people.
Daniel Webster, director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research, explained to the Washington Post that while New Zealand's gun lobby and the NRA share a lot of common goals, the U.S. system of representation and the way congressional districts are drawn gives a disproportionate amount of power to rural voters, who are more likely to oppose restrictions on guns. This (and its money) is why the NRA has so much influence with certain politicians, despite the majority of the population supporting common-sense gun reform. New Zealand's voting system is designed so that small interest groups don't have disproportionate influence.
New Zealand is determined not to follow in the U.S.' footsteps. Some gun owners have already voluntarily given up their weapons. "Until today I was one of the New Zealanders who owned a semiautomatic rifle. On the farm they are a useful tool in some circumstances, but my convenience doesn't outweigh the risk of misuse. We don't need these in our country," tweeted John Hart.
New Zealand has a relatively low murder rate, but guns are common and very easy to obtain online and through newspaper ads. According to the Small Arms Survey, there were 1.2 million registered firearms in 2017, which makes gun ownership in the country higher than Australia's, but still far lower than the U.S., where there is more than one gun per person in a population of 327 million. After a mass shooting in 1990 in Aramoana, in which a man killed 13 people, including two children, New Zealand tightened its restrictions on semiautomatic weapons.

Film Review: The Edge (1997)
What happens when you plop down a couple of famous faces in the Alaskan wilderness and pair them with a gross misrepresentation of animal behavior? Well, you get 1997's The Edge, which stars Anthony Hopkins (at his most regal) and Alec Baldwin (at his most greasy).
The Edge is a survivalist drama that strives for the existential power of 1975's Jaws, but never comes remotely close. Unlike that Spielbergian classic, which eloquently parsed the apathy of nature and the dithering norms of the political process, The Edge is thematically muddy, often to a frustrating degree.
The characters are also unremarkable. They are thinly written, and the two central actors – despite being highly formidable performers – bring very little to the proceedings. Hopkins plays the lead role of Charles Morse, an insanely wealthy, not to mention insanely pompous, billionaire. While accompanying his significantly younger significant other (a model named Mickey, who is the biggest gold digger since the original 49ers) on a photo shoot, Morse decides to take a side trip deeper into the mountains with the shoot's cameraman Robert Green.
This character is played with manic energy by Alec Baldwin, in a performance that has to be described as a cross between tongue in cheek and general lunacy. Baldwin's Green is a bundle of bizarre cackles, leading queries and disingenuous spunk. You don't really believe in him for a second. However, at least he leaps off the screen more than Hopkins' Morse, who basically spends his time staring off into space or peddling grating anecdotes.
Anyway, these two idiots find themselves in a real pickle when a plot-convenient flock of birds sends their small airplane tumbling to Earth. Emerging from the crisp albeit brutal beauty of a mountain lake, Morse and Green are joined by Stephen, played by Harold Perrineau (of Oz and The Matrix fame), who also survived the crash. From here, the plot descends into a flabby battle of wills between Hopkins' and Baldwin's characters, a dynamic defined (partially at least) by Baldwin's character saying the name "Charles" more often than one can count. (Try drinking to each utterance, or don't, as you'll probably die.)
The Edge was written by the revered wordsmith David Mamet – a shocking revelation considering that the film fails mainly through its insufficient script. Morse and Green just don't make much sense as characters. The thematic subtext of their relationship – which seems to broach interesting subject matter like economics, masculinity and personal worldviews – also feels stunted and half-formed.
Far worse than this, however, is the way that Mamet and director Lee Tamahori seek to characterize the concept of nature. As opposed to the far superior (and similarly set) survival film The Grey, The Edge never attempts to offer more than a superficial depiction of nature's blunt, apathetic ferocity, seen here mainly in the form of a large kodiak bear that relentlessly hunts the men.
The central problem is that the film never attaches a metaphysical connotation to this particular animal, circumscribing it as just a bear. This wouldn't necessarily be the worst thing in the world if the film also didn't have the animal behave in such an artificial and contrived fashion. Consider the scene where the bear makes its first appearance, which culminates with Morse, Green and Stephen having to cross a tree which is perched precariously over a thundering waterfall (in order to escape).
The bear in this instance not only follows them throughout a large swath of wilderness, but even attempts to shake Hopkins' character loose from the tree trunk. This isn't intended to say that a bear might NEVER do this, but it feels unlikely. Additionally, the way that director Tamahori stages this action an audience is more likely to hoot with laughter than to scream with terror; the big hairy oaf just looks like he wants to play instead of kill.
The Edge is filled with these types of laughable antics, where the action is supposed to be riveting but ultimately comes off as rather flaccid for one reason or another. Yet, even quieter moments, where one expects the peripheral psychological tension to be fleshed out, often end up leading nowhere. In fact, there are several scenes where the lack of a discernible point is even commented upon. In one scene this involves Morse instructing Stephen to make a spear (to hunt for fish) to take his mind off the fact that the group is hopelessly lost. In another it is Baldwin's Green who is being asked a frivolous question in order to momentarily forget his rapidly increasing despondency. Both cases serve as accurate summations of what is going in The Edge, which is simply not much of anything. There's a void at the heart of this tale of survival, and not even the gorgeous setting (or the pristine cinematography) can save it.
One thought on "Film Review: The Edge (1997)"
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. I want that survival book of his!

Q: Firebase function not returning value I am trying to do some operations using oncall function where,
I am first checking if user exists in database, then if he exists then do some operations like updating the DB.
well the function is working as expected and updating the DB as well, but its returning response as null so I can't tell what exactly happening.
exports.populateCart = functions.https.onCall((data, context) => {
    const user = context.auth.uid;

    DB.collection('users').doc(user).get().then((usr_resp) => {
        if (usr_resp.exists) {
            DB.collection('products').doc(data.productKey).get().then((prod_res) => {
                DB.collection('carts').add({
                    //some data
                }).then(() => {
                    return {
                        response: 'CART UPDATED'
                    };
                }).catch((carts_err) => {
                    return {
                        response: 'ERROR WHILE POPULATING CART : ' + carts_err
                    }
                });
            }).catch((prod_err) => {
                return {
                    response: 'ERROR WHILE FETCHING PRODUCT : ' + prod_err
                };
            });
        }
        else {
            return {
                response: 'USER DOES NOT EXISTS OR USER NOT AUTHENTICATED'
            };
        }
    }).catch((usr_err) => {
        return {
            response: 'ERROR WHILE FETCHING USER : ' + usr_err
        };
    });
});

There is one more similar question on stack overflow, where the solution is proposed to use,
reject(err);
resolve(lists);

methods, Please if the solution is using above methods, then please explain the use cases of this method in detail and if there are more methods like this please explain them as well.
Firebase function not returning data

A: You are not returning your promise. (see line 3 below)
exports.populateCart = functions.https.onCall((data, context) => {
    const user = context.auth.uid;
    // add return here before Db.collection()
    return DB.collection('users').doc(user).get().then((usr_resp) => {
        if (usr_resp.exists) {
            return DB.collection('products').doc(data.productKey).get().then((prod_res) => {
              return  DB.collection('carts').add({
                    //some data
                }).then(() => {
                    return {
                        response: 'CART UPDATED'
                    };
                }).catch((carts_err) => {
                    return {
                        response: 'ERROR WHILE POPULATING CART : ' + carts_err
                    }
                });
            }).catch((prod_err) => {
                return {
                    response: 'ERROR WHILE FETCHING PRODUCT : ' + prod_err
                };
            });
        }
        else {
            return {
                response: 'USER DOES NOT EXISTS OR USER NOT AUTHENTICATED'
            };
        }
    }).catch((usr_err) => {
        return {
            response: 'ERROR WHILE FETCHING USER : ' + usr_err
        };
    });
});

A: You need to return every promise that you are running:
exports.populateCart = functions.https.onCall((data, context) => {
    const user = context.auth.uid;

    return DB.collection('users').doc(user).get().then((usr_resp) => {
        if (usr_resp.exists) {
            return DB.collection('products').doc(data.productKey).get().then((prod_res) => {
                return DB.collection('carts').add({
                    //some data
                }).then(() => {
                    return {
                        response: 'CART UPDATED'
                    };
                }).catch((carts_err) => {
                    return {
                        response: 'ERROR WHILE POPULATING CART : ' + carts_err
                    }
                });
            }).catch((prod_err) => {
                return {
                    response: 'ERROR WHILE FETCHING PRODUCT : ' + prod_err
                };
            });
        }
        else {
            return {
                response: 'USER DOES NOT EXISTS OR USER NOT AUTHENTICATED'
            };
        }
    }).catch((usr_err) => {
        return {
            response: 'ERROR WHILE FETCHING USER : ' + usr_err
        };
    });
});

Try copying the above code. Also using async functions will make it look better like this:
exports.populateCart = functions.https.onCall(async (data, context) => {
  try {
    const usr_resp = await DB.collection('users').doc(user).get()
    if (!usr_resp.exists) throw new Error("USER DOES NOT EXISTS OR USER NOT AUTHENTICATED")
    const prod_res = await DB.collection('products').doc(data.productKey).get()
    await DB.collection('carts').add({ . someData . })
    return { response: "Cart Updated" }
  } catch (e) {
    console.log(e)
    return { response: e }
  }
});

Q: Mobile optimise table based website? I've been tasked to mobile optimised a site with media queries to load specific CSS on narrower browsers. I've just noticed however that the site is built with tables not proper CSS. I know all the reasons why building a site with tables is a terrible idea, but is there any work around that will allow me to break the table into a single column layout with CSS?

A: That is could be a tough task.
Depending on the mobile browsers you are targeting, and dependant upon the mark-up used (are there other tables present? Can you target the correct layout tables easily, etc.) then I would suggest setting the display property for the layout TD's to block to allow you to free them from the constraints of the table.
CSS like the snippet below should do the trick in modern mobile browsers, though you should consider targeting the intended elements more specifically if possible, so as to not affect other tables.
table, tr, td {
    display: block;
}

Once you have set the table elements to block, you should then be able to style and position them as necessary for the mobile layout.

Brexit fallout crushes financial stocks

(Reuters) – U.S. bank stocks led a steep decline on Wall Street on Monday as aftershocks from Britain's vote to leave the European Union roiled global markets for a second day.
The S&P financial index was down nearly 3 percent by late morning, with investors increasingly worrying about London's future as the region's finance capital.
JPMorgan fell 3.7 percent, while Bank of America dropped 5.4 percent. The stocks were among the biggest drags on the S&P 500.
The Dow has now lost nearly 950 points since the "Brexit" vote outcome, setting it up for the worst two-day decline since August 2015.
European stocks were hammered yet again and the sterling fell more than 2 percent. The European banks index on Monday hit its lowest since July 2012.
"What I can say with certainty is uncertainty will remain," said Tina Byles Williams, chief executive officer of FIS Group.
The selloff on Friday eroded $2.08 trillion in market capitalization globally – the biggest one-day loss ever, according to Standard Poor's Dow Jones Indices, trumping the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy during the 2008 financial crisis.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew, however, said the market impact from Brexit had been orderly so far and there were no signs of a financial crisis arising from the vote.
At 10:51 a.m. ET (1451 GMT) the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 316.12 points, or 1.82 percent, at 17,084.63. The S&P 500 was down 42.83 points, or 2.1 percent, at 1,994.58. The Nasdaq Composite was down 118.77 points, or 2.52 percent, at 4,589.21.
Eight of the 10 major S&P sectors were lower. Utilities and telecom service were the only ones in the black.
The Brexit vote, which Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen had said would have significant repercussions on the U.S. economic outlook, is expected to scuttle the Fed's ability to raise short-term interest rates.
Traders have virtually priced out an interest rate increase this year, according to CME Group's FedWatch tool.
Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by 2,573 to 363. On the Nasdaq, 2,372 issues fell and 342 advanced.
The S&P 500 index showed 5 new 52-week highs and 24 new lows, while the Nasdaq recorded 10 new highs and 118 new lows.

'Please, renounce the hate': Father's heartbroken plea to white supremacist son
Aug. 15, 2017, 4:05 PM UTC / Source: TODAY Contributor
By Meghan Holohan
After learning his son marched in the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, over the weekend, Pearce Tefft decided he had to break his silence.
"We have been silent up until now, but now we see that this was a mistake. It was the silence of good people that allowed the Nazis to flourish the first time around, and it is the silence of good people that is allowing them to flourish now," he said in a heartfelt letter published in his local paper, in which he decried his son Peter's behavior and said until Peter disavows his bigoted ways, he is no longer part of the family.
"Peter Tefft, my son, is not welcome at our family gatherings any longer. I pray my prodigal son will renounce his hateful beliefs and return home. Then and only then will I lay out the feast," Tefft wrote in a letter on The Forum, a Fargo, North Dakota paper.

A Twitter account called "Yes, You're Racist" identified Peter as a participant in the "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville over the weekend. Despite his differences with his family, Peter Tefft continues to be outspoken about his views. He gave interviews claiming to be a "pro-white" advocate and in July wrote his own letter to the editor about why he planned to attend the rally.
"I am going to the Unite the Right event in Charlottesville, Va., on August 12th to stand up for rural, traditional Americans. We will be rallying around the statue of General Lee, one of many statues the left is bent on demonizing and dismantling," he said in the Forum.

Peter's family has gotten threats from people assuming they share Peter's beliefs. His nephew, Jacob Scott Wieber, pleaded with his uncle to distance himself from the family to save them some pain.
"You are bringing shame and ignominy on your whole family, and causing a great deal of heartbreak and distress for all of us. A number of individuals have already begun harassing your siblings and other relatives, because they think we are associated with you," Wieber wrote on Facebook. "We are NOT, we never will be, and every one of us will resist you to our last breath, if you continue to fight to bring about the fascist America you so crave to see."
In Tefft's letter, he makes it clear that he felt he had to speak out against his son's beliefs and actions because it was the right thing to do.
"I, along with all of his siblings and his entire family, wish to loudly repudiate my son's vile, hateful and racist rhetoric and actions. We do not know specifically where he learned these beliefs. He did not learn them at home."
Tefft stresses that the family does not share Peter's views and do not understand where he adopted them.
"We do not, never have, and never will, accept his twisted worldview," he said.
Tefft closes with a exchange he had with his son and a warning.
"He once joked, 'The thing about us fascists is, it's not that we don't believe in freedom of speech. You can say whatever you want. We'll just throw you in an oven.'
Peter, you will have to shovel our bodies into the oven, too. Please son, renounce the hate, accept and love all."

Daily Racing Form: Diversify Sharp In Work For Jockey Club Gold Cup
The Whitney Stakes winner went five furlongs in 58.90 seconds Friday morning in preparation for the Grade 1 race September 29.
by David Grening, Daily Racing Form
ELMONT, N.Y. – All the ingredients were in place for Diversify to have a strong workout Friday morning, and the multiple graded stakes-winning New York-bred delivered by sizzling five furlongs in 58.90 seconds over Belmont's main track in preparation for the Grade 1 Jockey Club Gold Cup on Sept. 29.
Before Friday, Diversify had just one workout since his powerhouse victory in the Grade 1 Whitney on Aug. 4 at Saratoga. Due to several days of wet tracks, Diversify's last several days consisted mostly of jogging, with the exception of a gallop on Thursday.
In Friday's drill, Diversify had jockey Irad Ortiz Jr. up, a freshly harrowed track to work over, and a pair of Chad Brown-trained horses breezing a half-furlong or so in front of him.
Thus, Diversify zipped his first three furlongs in 34.65, went three wide as he got to the Brown duo, which picked up the pace turning for home, and Diversify, still three paths wide, came home in 24.25 and galloped out six furlongs in 1:11.25.
"This will just wake him up," said Melissa Cohen, assistant to trainer Rick Violette, who was in Kentucky on Friday.
Violette, after speaking with Cohen, said, "I was pretty tickled."
Diversify will have one more work, likely an easy half-mile, next weekend.
Diversify will look to win the Jockey Club Gold Cup for a second consecutive year. He will bring a three-race winning streak into this year's running, with victories in the Commentator, Grade 2 Suburban, and Whitney leading to this.
Violette said that following the Gold Cup, the Breeders' Cup Classic will remain "in play," and a decision on whether to run or not won't be made until Violette sees how the horse trains over Churchill's main track.
Violette said he does plan to ship Diversify to Kentucky shortly after the Gold Cup to see how Diversify acclimates to the surface. Last year, Violette skipped the Breeders' Cup Classic at Del Mar and ran Diversify in the Grade 1 Clark at Churchill, where he finished fourth after setting an uncontested pace. Violette said Ortiz told him that Diversify didn't handle the surface.
"If he hates it, we're out of luck," Violette said.

Over the next two weeks, we will tackle one of the most controversial and misunderstood passages in the entire Bible! It is a passage that deals with marriage and the roles of men and women. In Ephesians 5, men are clearly given the greater responsibility when it comes to marriage. Many men have taken the words in Ephesians 5 and used it to dominate and control their wives. Other men have avoided God's teaching and refused to lead their families, choosing instead to be passive avoiders of responsibility and true manhood. Our society has reinforced both of these false views of manhood in a variety of ways.
Scripture is very clear, however, on the responsibility of men in a marriage. Men are to be the Spiritual leaders of their homes. Men are to "love their wives as Christ loved the church." What does this mean? What does it really look like for a man to love a woman properly? How did Christ love the church? Jesus loved us selflessly. He gave Himself up for us out of a deep love, even in the midst of our sin and rebellion. He loved us with all that He had. This is what it means to be a leader. Taking hold of this responsibility is what it means to be a man.
The world's handbook on marriage doesn't work. It is creating spiritually passive men, and families that have no foundation or leadership. It's time to get back to the One that made us. God ordained marriage. He knows how it works. When a man loves a woman as Christ loved the church, then everything changes.

Q: getting the random number generator to remove a choice once the selection has been made? JAVA I just wanted to start by saying that I have been searching though this (and a few other) site for the last 3 hours to no avail, i have read every post i could find in regards to my topic and either it did not apply or i couldn't quite understand what was happening.
I'm having 2 issues.

*

*I can't seem to get the random number generator to discard a choice once it has been made.

*My second issue is that there can only be one six point round per competition, and i cant seem to figure out how to limit it only to one with the specific constraints of a 6 point round.
The program is designed to simulate picking the jumps for a
    skydiving competition. There are three separate competitions
    (A,AA,AAA) (levels of difficulty, certain moves do not appear A or
    AA, AAA is all inclusive) that the user can pick from as well as
    whether the individual competition will be 6 or 10 rounds (A will
    always be 6 rounds). Once the user has picked the competition and
    number of rounds, the program is supposed to output the individual
    moves to be completed for each round as well as the points for the
    round (does this for all 6 or 10 rounds of the competition). Here is
    where my first issue lies:
Once a move is picked, it cannot be
    used again for the rest of the competition. I cannot for the
    life of me figure out how to do this.
Moving on, there are two
    separate categories for scoring, the numbered moves (1-22 in my
    program) and the lettered moves (23 and up), the numbered are worth
    2 points and the lettered are worth 1. each round is 5 or 6 points
The issue i am having with this is for there to be a 6 point round, it can only be made up of 3 numbered moves, no other
    combination would be acceptable; and to add to that, there can only
    be one six point round in the entirety of the competition.*
     for(int i=0; i < round; i++ )
     {
        System.out.printf("\nRound %d:\n", i+1);
        point = 0;

        while(point < 5)
        {
        pickedRandom=false;
        formation = myRandom.nextInt(38) + 1;

            while(formation == 31)
            {
                formation = myRandom.nextInt(38) + 1;
            }

            if(point == 4 && pickedRandom && formation < 23 )
            {
                while(formation < 23)
                formation = myRandom.nextInt(38) + 1;
            }

            if(formation < 23)
            {
                point+=2;
            }
            else
            {
                pickedRandom=true;
                point++;

            }

            formationRound.set( formation, true );

            if(formation > 22)
            System.out.printf(" %s %s ",randomLetter(formation), formationName(formation));

            else
            System.out.printf(" %d %s", formation, formationName(formation));

         }
            System.out.println();
            System.out.printf( " %s \n", point );
    }
}

A: I don't understand your question due to formatting, your problem domain, or your code.
However I think you state you want to randomize some numbers, without replacements.
Some strategies to do so are:

*Create a list of numbers, then shuffle it, pop a number off each time you need a random number, until your 'deck' is empty.

*Maintain a set of numbers that have already been drawn. if the number is in the set, randomize another.
The lazy/brute force method of matching the 6 point round constraint would be to build your formations + competition in advance, in it's entirety. Check to see if it matches your constraints, if not, regenerate the whole competition.
This is only really economical in terms of performance if the chances of your constraints being invalid are fairly low. < 30-40%
Otherwise, you could regenerate only the current formation, but you would need to check that there are still possible valid formations remaining. I'm also not sure how badly this would affect your distribution of random formations.


It seems that time has progressively gained momentum in the past 17 years. I met the love of my life on a warm summer day in Boaz Alabama. He had my heart from the very beginning. Wasn't that just yesterday? Our first son was born 2 years later. It was just yesterday it seems. I remember putting the boys to bed, tucking them in and getting lots of hugs and kisses from my little guys. Wasn't that just yesterday? Our first grandaughter spent so much time in our home her first 3 years, before they moved to Germany. Wasn't that just yesterday? I watched them take his body out of our home, the home he grew up in. He left here one last time, never to return.. Seems like just yesterday.

A Sampling of Environmental Charges Verses Koch:
September 2000, a federal grand jury in Corpus Christi, Texas returned a 97-count indictment against Koch Industries Inc., Koch Petroleum Group for violating federal clean air and hazardous waste laws, due to the release of at least 91 metric tons of uncontrolled, untreated carcinogenic benzene. In April 2001, the company reached a $20 million settlement in exchange for admitting to covering up environmental violations at its refinery in Corpus Christi, Texas. www.justice.gov
March 2000, Koch petroleum which operates a refinery in Rosemount, Minn., was sentenced to pay a $6 million criminal fine and pay an additional $2 million in remediation costs. This is the largest federal environmental fine ever paid in Minnesota. Koch admitted that it negligently discharged 200,000 – 600,000 gallons of aviation fuel into a wetland and an adjoining waterway. In addition, their way of recovering the fuel (a year and a half later) destroyed a portion of the surrounding ecosystem and wildlife habitat. In a separate offense, Koch dumped a million gallons of wastewater with high ammonia content on the ground between November 1996 and March 1997 and also increased its flow of wastewater into the Mississippi River on weekends when no one monitored discharges. These actions allowed Koch to circumvent the weekly monitoring and reporting requirements of its wastewater discharge permit. The case was investigated by EPA's Criminal Investigation Division, the FBI and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and was prosecuted by the U. S. Attorney's Office for the District of Minnesota.www.ehso.com
Koch's Sterling butane pipeline had a leak in Lively, Texas, on August 24, 1996. Two teenagers on the way to report the leak drove into the unseen butane cloud, and were killed when the gas exploded and burned. The National Transportation Safety Board concluded that severe external pipeline corrosion was the cause of the failure.www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch_Industries
In 1999, a federal jury found that Koch Industries had stolen oil from government and American Indian lands and had lied about its purchases more than 24,000 times. In May 2001, Koch Industries paid $25 million to the federal government to settle the federal lawsuit that found the company had improperly taken more oil than it had paid for from federal and Indian land. www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch_Industries
In January 2000, Koch Pipeline, agreed to a $35 million settlement with the U.S. Justice Department and the State of Texas as fines for the firm's three hundred oil spills (300 million gallons) in Texas and five other states going back to 1990.www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch_Industries
In 2006, Flint Hill Resources was fined nearly $16,000 by the EPA for 10 separate violations of the Clean Air Act at its Alaska oil refinery facilities, and required to spend another $60,000 on safety equipment needed to help prevent future violations. yosemite.epa.gov

For more info on Koch Industries' funding of Climate Denial Groups — See GreenPeace's report "Koch Industries Funding the Climate Denial Machine" www.greenpeace.org
In the August, 2010 New York Magazine article 'Covert Operations,' oil tycoon David Koch was quoted as saying, global warming will be a good thing for the planet and will help "support enormously more people because a far greater land area will be available to produce food." www.newyorker.com
Koch Industries currently brings in $100 billion in revenue annually. Yes, you read correctly…
Each brother is personally worth $21.5 billion. Together 43 billion.*
Koch Industries spent a total of $37.9 million on oil and gas lobbying
from January 2006 to December 2009. www.sourcewatch.org

Since the Citizen's United decision, corporations can now attempt to influence their employees' votes. The Koch Brothers jumped on that band wagon right away and mailed out lists of Koch supported candidates to their 50,000 employees during the last election.

The Mercatus Center is a conservative Think Tank at George Mason University's Arlington campus. It is a university-based research center that makes its research findings available to the media and public policy makers. According to GreenPeace the Mercatus Center has received over 10 million dollars worth of funding from the Koch Brothers. Mercatus also fights environmental regulation, opposes clean energy legislation and lobbys to prevent curbs on industrial pollution. www.greenpeace.org mercatus.org
Why am I giving you this information? When my good friend in New Jersey told me that these Zionists are responsible for helping George Zimmerman set up his paypal account and take his entire family into hiding after the Martin murder, my "whitey-sense" began to tingle.
These demonic beings make oil, sulfur, petroleum, etc…
What does that mean, you ask?
Hmmmm…makes no sense, you say? I'm crazy, you think? What does Louisiana and Haiti as well as ALL Caribbean Islands have? What does Africa have?
Open your eyes and see what's right in front of you, black people!
