Natural gas leaks are dangerous and exacerbate climate change
Plus, enough gas has escaped infrastructure since 2010 to heat 170,000 homes for a year.
Jonathan Thompson June 9, 2015
12.8 billion cubic feet.
That's how much natural gas has been released since 2010 in nearly 700 "incidents" reported to the federal Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration that occurred in the nation's natural gas gathering and transmission systems. Another 36 million cubic feet of natural gas escaped during incidents from the distribution systems that deliver gas to homes and businesses during that time. Added up, it's enough gas to heat more than 170,000 homes for a year.
Oil pipeline busts, like the one that wrecked the shoreline near Santa Barbara, California, recently, tend to get most of the attention these days — oil is sticky, nasty stuff. But natural gas infrastructure failures are equally alarming. Punctured natural gas pipelines can be dangerous. The reported incidents killed 70 people and injured more than 300. They can be expensive. Total costs in lost gas and property damage was nearly $700 million. And, all that natural gas is about 95 percent methane, an especially potent greenhouse gas.
Natural gas burns cleaner than coal: It emits about half the carbon dioxide per kilowatt hour of electricity generated, and doesn't spew particulates, mercury or sulfur dioxide into the air. Since natural gas plants can provide round-the-clock baseload power to the grid, along with fast-ramping backup power, natural gas is the logical fossil fuel to replace coal in the electricity mix in a carbon-constrained world. But that logic is challenged when the production and movement of natural gas is considered. Methane can escape into the atmosphere during the drilling and hydraulic fracturing process; it's emitted from processing plants and wells and, as the map above shows, large quantities of methane can escape when pipelines and other parts of the infrastructure spring leaks or are ruptured.
Methane's global warming potential is about 30 times that of carbon dioxide over a 100-year period. So when a natural gas pipeline leaks, it cuts into the greenhouse gas benefits gained at the electricity-generation stage. In 2012, for example, a pipeline in Kern County, California, ruptured, allowing 585 million cubic feet of natural gas to leak into the air. That's the equivalent of more than 230,000 tons of carbon dioxide. To put that in perspective, the San Juan Generating Station in northwestern New Mexico emits that same amount of carbon dioxide in a week, and the coal mine that supplies it releases about four times that (as methane) in a year.
The accompanying map shows every reported incident in the transmission and gathering systems across the nation since 2010. A browse through the reports reveals sometimes startling facts. Our infrastructure for moving this volatile gas is old, for example. Some of the busted pipes in the distribution system were installed more than a century ago, and 71 of the pipelines that ruptured or leaked in the transmission system were installed prior to 1950. Though the loss of life is rare, when a leak does lead to an explosion, the consequences can be dire. In 2010, an explosion in San Bruno, California, killed eight and injured 51. Browse through the incidents in your state to get a sense of how fragile the natural gas transmission infrastructure is, keeping in mind that surely many leaks go unnoticed and unreported.
Stay tuned to hcn.org for a similar map documenting oil pipeline incidents.

9/4/96--M&Q/FRANK SLISH, G.I.--I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON OVER THERE, IT'S BEEN 5 YEARS SINCE THE WAR. CLINTON SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN MORE OF AN INTERNATIONAL COLLILITION. HE WILL LOOK BAD IF HE DOSEN'T GET MORE INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT.


If you have been following the magical practices day by day, you have now built an amazing foundation by practicing gratitude for everything you have received and continue to receive in your life. But today is an exciting day, because you're going to begin to use gratitude's magical power for your dreams and desires!
Gratitude is something you must have before you can receive, not something that you simply do after something good has happened. Most people are grateful after they receive something good, but to make all your wishes come true and change your entire life by filling it with riches in every area, you must be grateful before and after.
1. Count Your Blessings: Make a list of ten blessings. Write why you're grateful. Reread your list, and at the end of each blessing say, thank you, thank you, thank you, and feel as grateful for that blessing as you can.
2. Sit down at a computer or with a pen and journal, and list your top ten desires. Write thank you three times before each one, as though you've already received it. For example: Thank you, thank you, thank you for your desire.
3. Using your imagination, answer the following questions, as if you have already received each of your ten desires. What emotions did you feel when you received your desire? Who is the first person you choose to tell your desire and how? What is the first great thing, you did when you received what you wanted?
4. Finally, reread the sentence listing your desire, and really emphasize the magic words, thank you, so that you feel them as much as you can.
5. If you like, create a Magic Board. Cut out pictures and attach them to your Magic Board, and put it in a place you can see it often. Title the board with THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU in big bold letters across the top.
6. Just before you go to sleep tonight, hold your Magic Rock in one hand and say the magic words, thank you, for the best thing that happened during the day.

Mark Hunter, Liberal Democrat MP for Cheadle constituency was interviewed, at his constituency office in Cheadle Hulme, by pupils from Pownall Green Primary school in Bramhall as part of a project for their school radio station.
The pupils, who were representatives of the school radio scheme, came to interview Mark about his job as an MP, for their school radio station. The pupils asked Mark about his role, what his work entails and what Mark's favourite and least favourite parts of the job are. The pupils were accompanied by their Headteacher Mr George Bulman.
Speaking after the interview Mr Hunter said: "It was great to see these young budding journalists taking an interest in politics and getting excited about using the school radio as a way communicating with their classmates. The school radio is a really innovative way of improving the sense of community in the school, as well as allowing the pupils to really shine in the shows broadcast.
"I was really pleased to have the opportunity to meet and chat to these bright youngsters about what being an MP is all about. I'm here to serve the community and it was a great opportunity to hear their ideas about what I can do to make our area better in the future."

Ontario Taking Steps to End Human Trafficking
Archived News Release
Province Investing in Strategy to Improve Services, Help Survivors
June 30, 2016 12:01 P.M.
Ministry of the Status of Women
Ontario will invest up to $72 million in an anti-human trafficking strategy aimed at increasing awareness and coordination, enhancing justice-sector initiatives and improving survivors' access to services.
Ontario is a major centre for human trafficking in Canada, accounting for roughly 65 percent of police-reported cases nationally. Drawing on feedback from experts and community partners as well as successful initiatives from other Canadian jurisdictions, the new Strategy to End Human Trafficking focuses on four areas of action:
Prevention and Community Supports that will increase awareness and understanding of the causes of human trafficking, and improve community services like housing, mental health services, trauma counselling, and job skills training to meet the immediate and long-term needs of survivors.
Enhanced Justice Sector Initiatives that will support effective intelligence-gathering and identification, investigation and prosecution of human trafficking.
Indigenous-Led Approaches that will support culturally relevant services and responses -- designed, developed, and delivered jointly with Indigenous partners.
Provincial Coordination and Leadership, including the development of a provincial Anti-Human Trafficking Coordination Office to help improve collaboration across law enforcement, justice, social, health, education, and child welfare sectors.
The Strategy to End Human Trafficking delivers on Premier Kathleen Wynne's commitment made in February 2016 to address human trafficking and is a part of the government's vision to ensure that everyone in the province can live in safety -- free from the threat, fear or experience of exploitation and violence.
"Human trafficking" is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of persons by improper means (such as force, abduction, fraud, coercion, deception, repeated provision of a controlled substance) for an illegal purpose, including sexual exploitation or forced labour.
Of Ontario's reported cases of human trafficking, about 70 per cent are for the purpose of sexual exploitation, and the majority of survivors are Canadian citizens or permanent residents.
Individuals who are most vulnerable as targets for human trafficking include Indigenous people, young women, at-risk youth, youth in care, migrant workers, and persons with mental health and addiction issues.
In many cases of trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation, trafficked persons may develop "trauma bonds" with their traffickers, and may not view themselves as victims. As such, human trafficking is believed to be a vastly underreported crime.
Strategy to End Human Trafficking - Overview of Initiatives
Progress Report on It's Never Okay, An Action Plan to Stop Sexual Violence and Harassment
Walking Together: Ontario's Long-Term Strategy to End Violence Against Indigenous Women
"Human trafficking is a deplorable crime and human rights violation that robs the safety, livelihood and dignity of those who are being exploited and abused. We are committed to keeping women – and all Ontarians – safe. The release of this strategy reinforces our continued dedication to this cause."
Tracy MacCharles
Minister Responsible for Women's Issues
"Ontario is committed to protecting and supporting survivors of human trafficking and working to prevent this heinous crime in the future. We have clearly heard from those on the front-lines of this issue that there needs to be sustained supports to help survivors repair their lives, more training to help our justice sector partners investigate and prosecute these crimes, and deeper coordination at every level to fight human trafficking. Ontario's Strategy to End Human Trafficking delivers on all of these fronts in a way that focuses on the wellbeing of survivors and holds offenders accountable."
David Orazietti
Minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services
"It is critical for survivors of human trafficking to have access to the supports and services they need to leave a life of violence and exploitation. Through the new Anti-Human Trafficking Coordination Office, our government will fund agencies and frontline workers, including those serving Indigenous communities, to help survivors of human trafficking live in safety."
Dr. Helena Jaczek
Minister of Community and Social Services
"The province's announcement today is a significant step in the right direction. We look forward to continuing our work with the government as it moves toward a more coordinated and focused approach to address this critical issue in Ontario."

Q: How to send email using Backbone and c# form I'm working on a very simple Backbone project which fetches some items from the database and displays it. This model will not be changed so there's not need to post this model back to the database. However, I have a form that when it's posted sends email to the recipients (which the backbone fetches from the database). I'm using C# as back-end for the project. How can I achieve this?
here's my html
<form name="bmsEmail" id="bmsEmail" role="form">
 <fieldset>

       <input type="text" autocomplete="off" name="name" id="name" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" />

        <input type="text" autocomplete="off" name="patientID" id="patientID" class="form-control" placeholder="Patient ID" />

         <textarea rows="11" name="message" id="message" class="form-control" placeholder="Message"></textarea>

         <button type="submit" class="btn btn-info">Submit</button>

 </fieldset>
</form>

App.Views.EmailForm = Backbone.View.extend({
    tagName: 'div',
    id: 'emailForm',
    template: template('email-form'),

    events:{
        "submit form": "formSubmit"
    },

    formSubmit:function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();

    },

    render: function () {

        this.$el.append(this.template())
        return this;
    }
});

A: You'll need to post the data that you want send to server and there use a SMTP (http://msdn.microsoft.com/pt-br/library/system.net.mail.smtpclient(v=vs.110).aspx) class from asp.net to send email.
Via browser is impossible because you need some configurations to send the mail.

The steering system, suspension system and front end alignment of your vehicle work in tandem to provide you with a smooth ride as you go about your day-to-day business. If any of those systems or their components should fail, it could cause a safety issue. As a part of our bumper-to-bumper service, M.R. Automotive offers a full range of suspension repair services in Whitby, including shock and strut replacement services designed specifically to restore your vehicle's suspension system to its original factory specifications.
Shock absorbers and struts provide stability and support so that you are able to retain control of your vehicle even when driving over rough pavement or making turns. If your vehicle bounces excessively even when you go over small bumps and irregularities, it may be a sign that the suspension system needs repair.
While many older vehicles and vehicles equipped with rear-wheel drive rely on shock absorbers and accompanying components such as control arms, shafts, rods, bushings, joints, and knuckles to provide a smooth ride and keep your vehicle under control, most modern front-wheel drive vehicles employ a strut system instead. Shock absorbers and struts perform the same functions, but a strut suspension system combines the control arms and shock absorbers of a conventional car suspension into one unit, providing better performance with fewer components to maintain.
Whether your vehicle is equipped with shock absorbers or a strut-based suspension system, the team of certified technicians at M.R. Automotive have the knowledge and training to get you back on the road and running smoothly at an affordable price. Contact us today to learn more or to schedule a service appointment for your vehicle.


Peer Services could be one of our greatest assets to bridging the gap between the work that is done in the office into the practice of real life. Our Peer Collaborative invites those wanting to build and practice those skills in preparation for the workplace to apply to join us! Please contact CFLR by calling 315.733.1709.

Q: How to start/stop recording automatically when there is someone starts talking? I want to start recording when someone starts talking, and stop recording when it becomes silent.
I guess if there is stream audio processing tool like ImageMagick, so I can strip away blank sections like this:
$ rec -t wav - | wavefilter -strip-blank=3sec | lame - >record1.mp3

EDIT
This question is resolved by using:
$ rec -t wav - silence 1 0.1 3% -1 1.0 3% | lame - >record1.mp3

A: The silence predicate of SoX can strip silence from the middle of an audio file.


← Easy ways to make your photos talk!
My students from 5th grade have suggested me working in class with Pink Floyd's song: "Another Brick in the Wall". I was surprised by the demand as 10-year-old students are not supposed to like those songs. And without even noticing, as I was preparing the song worksheet, they made me reflect a lot about my role as an English teacher.
As regards their English level of proficiency, they are elementary students (A1). Of course they will find the song very challenging, but that didn't worry me. They are very motivated to listen to the song and I'm sure they will manage with the help of the you tube video and some guiding questions.
While I was writing them, I realised that I cannot use this song in class without having a thorough discussion about its meaning. What is education? What type of education do we want? Are there right or wrong answers? What is the importance of having our own ideas? Most probably my students won't be able to discuss these issues fully in English. Nevertheless, I believe that even if they speak Spanish, the debate will be worth it. After all, I'm not teaching just English, I am trying to be an educator.
And this brought me to my perpetual professional dilemma one more time… The issue that faces me with cyclical professional crisis. What am I doing there in those crowded classrooms? Teaching English? I don't want to do that, I don't believe in that. English is just a language, a tool. Very necessary and important. Yes, of course. It has opened me lots of doors. It has put me in contact with lots of very interesting people. It has let me access books in the authors' mother tongue and has surrounded me with poetry and hundreds of magical stories. However, we shouldn't forget it is a TOOL, just like Spanish is.
I'm not saying that I don't want to teach English anymore. No, I love what I do. What I don't want is to teach JUST English. English is not the object of study in my classes. It is the MEANS to access a bunch of knowledge. It is the tool that will allow me and my students to access lots of information, to get to know new cultures, different ways of thinking, different points of views; that will allow us to reflect on important issues, defend our opinions and why not, also get to know each other more. That's what education is all about after all: developing CRITICAL THINKING and SOCIAL SKILLS.
It sounds pretty simple, though, how difficult it is to teach that! To teach our students to think by themselves, to defy our (the teacher's) points of view. It is very difficult to get them used to the idea that sometimes there are no right or wrong answers. And of course, sometimes it is even difficult for us , the teachers, to give them more freedom to think and take control of the class. It is easier not to do so. We should overcome the resistance to change. Students should be in control of our classrooms: rethinking and reinventing knowledge; learning collaborately with the teachers as facilitators, not as THE ONES WHO POSSES THE KNOWLEDGE.
Well, that's all for now folks. What do you think about all these incoherent ramblings of mine?

Es muy interesante saber cómo puede uno reinventar su profesión y su rol dentro de lo que le gusta hacer.
Felicitaciones por el blog y por aportar conciencia crítica al diseño de nuevas formas de ver las profesiones.
Hi Sabri! I think that you're doing an excellent job in your role as educator; I can see through your words the passion and enthusiasm that you put into your teaching. And I do not think that you're teaching just English; if you spread the same amount of thought and passion that you put in this post in your classroom, I'm sure your students will learn everything that you say (critical thinking and social skills) and even so much more.
Excelent post, as always! Have a nice (end of) week!
Hi Dami! Thank you for your kind words. As I told you in facebook, it is nice to hear comments from the people we trust. It helps to keep us motivated!
Thanks for your kind words Leila. Hope you are doing fina. I read your blog very often. Keep up the good job!
I'm now at a Foreign Nationals school in China and we have students from all over the world, but mostly from Korea. The curriculum we teach is in English, from British Columbia, Canada.
On campus we have a Speak Only English rule while in the school… right down to 'English Club' if you are caught speaking another language. When I arrived at the school, I was determined to get rid of this rule. But, as principal, I spend a lot of time walking around the grounds at recess and lunch. I was astonished at how much English I heard! I would be behind two kids with low English skills and even before they knew I was behind them I'd hear them talking and playing in English. I know how important conversational language learning is (especially among peers) and so the rule remains.
However, when in class and the kids are struggling with an important concept, I must agree with you! I think it is really important to think of English as 'just a tool' and allow first language explanations and discussions between students! I have especially noticed the value of this in Math where students are trying to understand difficult concepts.
This was a wonderful, insightful post to read, thank you!
Thanks David! I love listening to your professional experience. They are always very insightful.
Hola Sa, qué sorpresa que te pidan ese tema, no? Y qué bueno que se inquieten, que pregunten, que demanden, a veces quizás los docentes subestimamos un poco a los chicos con esta idea circulante de que no les importa nada. No creo que así sea porsupuesto, o renuncio! Las cosas son distintas porque es necesario que así sea..igual no me quiero ir por otra rama con el divague…Me gustó mucho tu post y totalmente de acuerdo con que el Inglés, la Lengua, la Matemática o la Historia, son las excusas, o herramientas como vos decís, que nos permiten transitar este camino pendenciero.
Te mando un besote, Y adelante!

So, where do we begin?
It's incredible how, when confusion strikes, the human mind takes refuge in the place where it feels safer. In fact, it does so automatically, without any prompting. In my mind, for example, when seeking the way forward, I look backwards… in time… and memories that seemed long-forgotten suddenly resurface.
The art of making string instruments
Let's start from the beginning: it's approximately 1750, in the Contrada della Dogana, under the shadow of the Milan Cathedral. It is here that Antonio Monzino I founded the 'All'insegna della Sirena' workshop at number 4037. He was a great artisan, who constructed splendid musical instruments which are still preserved in major international collections even today. And, it is with him that a great passion for collecting antique musical instruments began.
My Grandfather…
My grandfather is a very present figure in my memories: a charismatic, fun and ironic man, always ready with a joke. But he was also a very attentive grandfather, particularly towards the aptitudes and potential of his grandchildren, his little 'Pisquani', as he affectionately used to call us.
Many years, generations and many transformations led the bottega of the remote 1750s to evolve, until 1971, when Casa Monzino became a joint-stock company. This was when the seventh generation made its entrance, represented by the five children of Antonio Carlo and Mariuccia Rossi: Antonio Jr., Vittoria, Carla, Alberto and Margherita.

Great to see a release, thanks Tom.
-> member.php has no changes!
-> install/resources/mybb_theme.xml has another file size!
member.php was included in this package as it was missed off the original 1.6.1 package, so we're including it now to make sure everybody has it.
@Matt: And why has 'install/resources/mybb_theme.xml' changed?
@querschlaeger: There's a small issue with a template version that didn't come up in my differences – but it will be updated in the full download shortly. It doesn't affect the security of your forum.
I do not know how to upgrade. I overwrote all the files in my directory with the new ones, and now it just says MyBB Internal Error, then when I run the upgrade script, it says 500 Internal Server Error. How to upgrade?
I followed the instructions in the wiki and they don't do anything but this. Do I run the install script.
@Duston Make a support thread, this isn't exactly the best place for you to ask for support.
Well I am eagerly waiting for release of 2.0..
Thank you for release it.
Well added the 7 files in the upgrade and overwrote those files that needed updating as requested, but in Control Panel home still See's this.
You are currently running MyBB 1.6.1 whilst the latest generally available release is MyBB 1.6.2 (1602).
@php4pro Because this was a security release, not a maintenance release.
@michael You've not uploaded the new files properly. Make a support thread and we'll help you.
Forum works fine! MyBB's Admin Control Panel; screwed! looks like a cookie problem, (chmod set to 666/777 ) need to login on any link or save.


In identifying entrepreneurial exit as a critical component of the entrepreneurial process, DeTienne (2010) posed the question, "what conditions cause an entrepreneur to choose a particular exit?" Implicit in this question is the notion that the seller is in control of exit outcomes. However, without a buyer, acquisition is eliminated as an exit outcome, leaving exit to occur by closure and/or liquidation (sometimes referred to as failure, e.g. van Teeffelen & Uhlaner, 2012). We focus this paper on the role played by the acquirer in entrepreneurial exit.
RQ1: Between financial and strategic buyers, are there differences in real options in acquisition targets? If so, what are they?
RQ2: Among financial and strategic buyers, are there differences in real options in acquisition targets? If so, what are they?

I was only seven years old when Rev. Jessie Jackson gave the now famous, "Keep Hope Alive!" speech at the 1988 Democratic National Convention. I vividly remember the speech because I heard a voice through the television screen that had the cadence of preachers I'd heard in churches in the backwoods of Arkansas. His phraseology and his message of hope resonated with my seven-year-old self in ways no one else on the big screen had ever done. He was familiar.
By the time I'd heard Rev. Jackson, messages of hope were already imbedded in my psyche. My ancestors used hope as a tool for survival with mantras such as "trouble don't last always" and "all I got is a hope and a prayer". They passed these tools to me. At church, I'd dragged songs such as "My Hope is Built on Nothing Less" and "Lift Every Voice and Sing" which explicitly speak about hope. I'd heard prayers that started with "Oh, God my help in ages past, my hope for years to come." I knew early that hope is present, but also future.
After reading this, I knew why my mind went back to 1988. My optimism (a prerequisite for hope) for social progress became distorted in a way that I'd never experienced. That optimism drifted to painful pessimism and I had to understand why.
I've been naïve to think that love and respect, as elements of human decency, are universal. This year was the first year I've worked with people who verbally professed disdain for the people they serve. I soon learned that there is a difference between a public service career and caring. This realization was disheartening, but real. I've seen young men and women gunned down and bombed in the streets with no repercussion for the perpetrators. Violence seems to be equated with victory. I've experienced a Trump supporter disparage my family and others in a barrage of profanity while we enjoyed dinner, and I've witnessed the president elect be himself. Words and works matter. Is this small sampling of my life's experiences the worst occurrences? Relative to the pain in the world, no, but for some reason my hope in humanity, my hope in great expectations for a brighter future dissipated.
Rev. Jackson's call to action was to "keep hope alive." This phase indicates that there is a possibility that hope can die. Hope has to be renewed. It's not static, but a dynamic, complicated way of life rooted in imagination and freedom. When there is no hope, there is no freedom. When there is no freedom, there is death. Not physical death, but eternal pessimism and fear. I'm not ready to die. I have to take time to hope again, to imagine again, to once again believe that though tomorrow isn't promised, what I do today represents my hope for the future.
Hope is renewed through reflection. I had to dig deep and understand why my hope waned. For me, reflection is a prerequisite for imagination. Hope is renewed through reimagining. There is power in seeing things as though they should be, as though they are. Hope is renewed through rejuvenation. I had to step away from my work for a while to gain a renewed strength and a heightened awareness for what it means to truly serve. Hope is renewed through recollection. Rev. Jacksons' immortal words "keep hope alive" renewed me and presented a challenge to me to work for the survival of hope.

Q: Simple Fading Divs with JS I have:
    var t_out;
    var idx = 0;

    function cycleReviews() {
        clearTimeout(t_out);
        t_out = setTimeout(function () {
            console.log(idx)
            $('#review_' + idx).animate({opacity: '0'}, function () {
                $('#review_' + idx).addClass('hide');

                $('#review_'+ (idx+1)).css('opacity', '0.0').removeClass('hide').animate({opacity: '1.0'});
                idx++;
            });
            if(idx == 2) {
                console.log('reload')
                idx = -1;
            }
            cycleReviews();
        }, 2000);
    }

To cycle through three divs, fading them one to the other.
I am having trouble getting it to work properly, concerning when it restarts (goes back to the first slide, idx 0).
How can I get this to work properly?

Fiddle:

'use strict';

var obj = [{'id': 0, 'review': 'Test1', 'author': 'Bob1'},{'id': 1, 'review': 'Test2', 'author': 'Bob2'},{'id': 2, 'review': 'Test3', 'author': 'Bob3'}];

$(function () {
            var html = '';
            var first = true;
            $.each(obj, function (i, v) {
                html += '
';
                html += '
' + v.review + '
';
                html += '
' + v.author + '
';
                html += '
';
                first = false;
            })
            $('#review_container').html(html);
            cycleReviews();

    var t_out;
    var idx = 0;

    function cycleReviews() {
        clearTimeout(t_out);
        t_out = setTimeout(function () {
            console.log(idx)
            $('#review_' + idx).animate({opacity: '0'}, function () {
                $('#review_' + idx).addClass('hide');

                $('#review_'+ (idx+1)).css('opacity', '0.0').removeClass('hide').animate({opacity: '1.0'});
                idx++;
                if(idx == 2) {
                    console.log('reload')
                    idx = 0;
                }
                cycleReviews();
            });

        }, 2000);
    }
});

A: You're overcomplicating things a bit there. I've made slight modifications to your code - added the index as a cycle parameter, changed it so that you don't have to look for previous element to hide it, but hide all the elements and show only the indexed one, removed hard-coded number of elements, etc. Here it is:

'use strict';

var obj = [{'id': 0, 'review': 'Test1', 'author': 'Bob1'},{'id': 1, 'review': 'Test2', 'author': 'Bob2'},{'id': 2, 'review': 'Test3', 'author': 'Bob3'}];

$(function () {
            var html = '';
            var first = true;
            $.each(obj, function (i, v) {
                html += '
';
                html += '
' + v.review + '
';
                html += '
' + v.author + '
';
                html += '
';
                first = false;
            })
            $('#review_container').html(html);
            cycleReviews(0);

    var t_out;

    function cycleReviews(idx) {
        clearTimeout(t_out);
        t_out = setTimeout(function () {
            console.log(idx)
            if(idx == obj.length) {
                    console.log('reload')
                    idx = 0;
            }
            $('.review').animate({opacity: '0'}, function () {
                $('.review').addClass('hide');
                $('#review_'+ (idx)).css('opacity', '0.0').removeClass('hide').animate({opacity: '1.0'});
                cycleReviews(idx+1);
            });

        }, 2000);
    }
});

Note, this can be improved even further, of course, but this will get you started.

How I'd write the cycleReviews function:

'use strict';

var obj = [{'id': 0, 'review': 'Test1', 'author': 'Bob1'},{'id': 1, 'review': 'Test2', 'author': 'Bob2'},{'id': 2, 'review': 'Test3', 'author': 'Bob3'}];

$(function () {
            var html = '';
            var first = true;
            $.each(obj, function (i, v) {
                html += '
';
                html += '
' + v.review + '
';
                html += '
' + v.author + '
';
                html += '
';
                first = false;
            })
            $('#review_container').html(html);
            cycleReviews(0);

    function cycleReviews(idx) {
            $('.review').addClass('hide');
            setTimeout(function(){
              $('#review_'+ idx).removeClass('hide');
              setTimeout(function(){
                  cycleReviews((idx+1) % obj.length);
              }, 1500);
            }, 500);

    }
});
.review {opacity: 1; transition: opacity 0.5s linear}
.hide {opacity: 0}

A: I like it clean, without useless IDs and stuff,
with clickable (and automatically generated) bullets
and even with a pause on hover:

var obj = [{'id': 0, 'review': 'Test1', 'author': 'Bob1'},{'id': 1, 'review': 'Test2', 'author': 'Bob2'},{'id': 2, 'review': 'Test3', 'author': 'Bob3'}];

$(function () {

  var $reviewsContainer = $('#review_container'),
      $bulletsContainer = $('.bullets'),
      idx = 0,
      slides = "",
      bullets = "",
      itv;

  $.each(obj, function (i, v) {
    slides  += '

'+ v.review +'

'+ v.author +'

';
    bullets += '';
  });

  $reviewsContainer.append(slides);
  $bulletsContainer.append(bullets);

  slides  = $reviewsContainer.find("> div");
  bullets = $bulletsContainer.find("> span").on("click", function(){
              idx = $(this).index();
              showSlideIdx();
            });

  function showSlideIdx() {
    slides.removeClass("active").eq(idx).addClass("active");
    bullets.removeClass("active").eq(idx).addClass("active");
    idx = ++idx % obj.length;
  }

  function play() { itv = setInterval(showSlideIdx, 2000);}
  function stop() { clearInterval( itv ); }

  $(".container").hover(stop, play);
  showSlideIdx(); // the first ones
  play();         // START!

If the soundtracks of RAISING ARIZONA (CARTER BURWELL) and ANTZ (JOHN POWELL AND HARRY GREGSON-WILLIAMS) had a love child, it would be RANGO (HANS ZIMMER). Calling this album "quirky" would be an understatement. Wicked zany crazy would be more like it.
The movie is a mishmash of classic cinema references, so it comes as no surprise that the music has everything but the kitchen sink. With a hodgepodge of different genres from mariachi yodeling (WTF?) to classical to even a few seconds of industrial metal (courtesy of punk band Lard), the album listens like the playlist of someone with ADHD. The transitions are jerky, sudden, and unpredictable. You feel like you're falling through a rabbit hole into The Land of Soundtrack Weirdness.
Actually, most of it is The Land of Album Badness. (Not to be confused with badass-ness.) If there are any soundtrack producers reading this, please allow me to outline some rules from the consumer's point of view--and use RANGO as an example of what NOT to do: . . .


At the moment our trekking program is suspended indefinitely due to other commitments.
IndraTrek offers an official treking schedule led by registered Environmental Trekking Guides.
We are just driven by our passion and for this reason we will try to aim to provide a quality experience, limiting the number of treks in the program as well as the number of people in each trek, besides of course trying to offer itineraries always interesting not only from a natural point of view but also culturally and historically.
Safety is very important to us, and for this reason we will inspect the trail before each trek to make sure it is accessible and in order to prevent any potential problem.
Here below is the List of the 2016 Treks.

Q: Wireshark: Disable "Do you want to save..." dialog? In Wireshark, is there a way to hide this did-you-forget-to-save dialog that appears after clicking "Restart current capture"? I'd like to never save, and not be warned.

A: Yes, there is an option that controls this.
If you're using the Qt version of Wireshark, you'll find it via Edit -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Confirm unsaved capture files.
If you're using the Gtk version of Wireshark, you'll find it via Edit -> Preferences -> User Interface -> Confirm unsaved capture files.


Back-links on sites such as Hub-Pages, Ezines or Squidoo etc. don't cut it anymore. These sites were originally set up to promote hobbies and niche areas, but were absolutely wrecked by underhand internet marketing techniques and they are still feeling the effect. However, simply writing a few articles on your subject and adding your links in the author and bio boxes will always help.
Blog commenting always works well as you can focus on appropriate sites and even if comment links are no-follow, they still count as a link from a 'similar' site.
When creating links to your website from another site, always try to use text for the link which is a top keyword for your site wherever possible. When text is used in links, it is referred to as the 'anchor' text, but always vary the anchor text; don't just use the same one over and over as this will negate that link effectiveness.
It can be quite a monotonous task creating the 1000′s of back-links needed to help with a good Page rank and I usually 'outsource' this task for my niche sites. It takes up just too much time which could be used for more important things, not that back-links are not important; but I prefer to do more 'exciting' things.
There are some 'major' pages that shouldn't be missed out on and these are sites which can be easily added-to by yourself.
Google for current discussion forums in your niche area and then register and start participating in as many various discussion forums as possible. Simply post links to your site while solving others problems! Don't forget to add a link to your site in your forum's signature.
Google allows you to create your very own profile page. Just use the link and create your own profile page, add a picture and some text about yourself and then add your website links.
MSN is updated every single day with news and articles on just about every subject going. To get a back-link, simply comment on an article!
This takes a little more work initially, but if you are looking to become an 'authority' on any particular subject, this is a great way to get started. You have to answer around 20 questions or more, but then you can get a good ranking back-link.
There are many free backlink assistance sites and backlink tools available and I'm not going to make a list here as they change often on a daily basis however any 'spare time' spent submitting to any backlink site would not be wasted time and even a few, every day will greatly improve your web presence.
Definitely opt-out of link networks.

GERD Home > Does Artichoke Leaf Extract Work?
Many people may wonder if artichoke leaf extract works. Although larger studies are still needed, some small studies have shown that the extract may help to relieve symptoms of indigestion, heartburn, and irritable bowl syndrome. Early research has also shown that artichoke leaf extract may help to lower high cholesterol. However, the extract does not appear to be effective at relieving hangovers.
Does Artichoke Leaf Extract Work for Treating Indigestion or Heartburn?
The overall improvement of these conditions may take some time (a few weeks or more) and should not be expected to be drastic. Larger studies are needed to confirm that artichoke leaf extract is really beneficial for this use.
Does Artichoke Leaf Extract Work for Treating High Cholesterol?
Early studies have suggested that artichoke leaf extract may safely and effectively be used to lower cholesterol. In particular, studies have suggested that the extract may help to lower total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol ("bad cholesterol"). However, it is simply too early to recommend artichoke leaf extract for this use, since more reliable scientific evidence is needed.

My cousins Pat & Tony gave me the key to the researching the Ient family in the USA. Pat's daughter, Margaret had undertaken extensive family history research, probably starting with information collected together by her grandfather, my Uncle Tom. Also, Tony, with his wife Tess, had been on a trip to the USA and discovered Ient relations back in the 1970s. As a result of this I contacted Cousin Ellen, granddaughter of our common ancestor, Johann Philip JENT (from the state of Württemberg, Germany).
This is a copy of a letter from her giving the history of the family in the USA (as it was in 1990).
There is no need whatsoever for apologizing for writing to me. I am glad to hear from you and would like to know all our English cousins. No doubt you know that Margaret Risley corresponded with me for some time and I sent her quite a bit of information, some of which I will repeat here since she is flying high and may not know where any of that information is located now. However, if you are really interested in birth and death dates, I expect Pat could find the material.
I suppose you know vaguely that your grandfather and his sister were the older half sister and brother of my mother and her sisters. I don't know how old they were when they last saw the two older ones. They lived in Stuttgart, Germany until the death of their parents. My daughter Connie and her husband were in Germany in May and they found the name Jent in the Stuttgart phone book but didn't have the time to look them up.
My grandfather Phillip Yent (spelled Jent in Germany) was a tax collector, who walked around the city in all weather, and he died from pneumonia. I assume he was a man of some education but I don't know. My grandmother, (your great grandmother) was Carolina I think, and she died within a year after her husband. The girls then were aged from 19 to 11. They were Pauline, Mary, Caroline, Anna and Mathilda. My mother was Anna. A state guardian was appointed for them supposedly to guard their estate, which he later claimed was non existent except for enough money to send them to their cousins in Ohio. The cousins were Keyerlebers, and I think they were on the mother's side of the family. In Euclid, Ohio they lived on a grape vineyard farm and were hard working German people. The three older girls immediately got housework jobs, and Mathilda was sent at the end of the summer to their aunt, Mrs Ott, who lived about a hundred miles away, and my mother was also placed in a housework job. She still didn't speak any English and was only fourteen, but she survived until she married at the age of 30.
Pauline married one of her Keyerleber cousins, Paul. They had seven children: Herman, Paul, Lina, Martha, Ernie, Anna, and Frederick, called Sunny Jim. The only one still living is Ernie, and he lives alone but is no longer competent mentally. Since he never married, just who is responsible for him is uncertain. Philip and Barbara, who are the children of Jimmy, are assumed to be the ones who should take the responsibility, but they live 30 miles away and have their own families.
Herman married Ruth Stevenson and had three children Arnold, Bobby, and Laverne. Laverne is the only one of the three living. She has children and grandchildren, but I don't know them well enough to tell you much about them. The same is true of Bobby's children, but I have met them all and they are good folks.
Lina died at 16 of the flu, Martha and Anna never married but were working girls in a bank. Martha died at 27, Anna in old age. I thought my aunt Pauline was a dear and I loved to visit in her home. It was a big old farmhouse with a tremendous kitchen, by today's standards, and a dining room to match. Many times the five sisters and their children assembled there and enjoyed being together and having lots of food. Those Yent girls were great cooks. It was not what anyone would call a happy marriage, but when I asked Aunt Pauline about it when she was quite old, she said, 'It would have been so nice to have a husband who would talk to me'.
Well, it was a stable marriage. One could depend on Aunt Pauline to take care of her family, keep a pleasant home and welcome her relatives. You could also depend on Uncle Paul to sit around after the day's work was done, his heavy beard hiding his face, and his vocal expressions mostly grunts.
All the children turned out all right except Herman, who came back from the First World War quite a mess, surly, lazy, and undependable. I was especially fond of my cousin Anna. She was a very mild girl and was considered to be a follower of her sister Martha. After Martha died, Anna picked up speed, learned to drive, and became just about as capable as Martha had been.
Paul Jr had three daughters: Betty Jean, who is Mrs Jack Weber, Marjorie, and Martha Sue. Betty and Jack had five children, and now have seven granddaughters, including one set of twins. The Webers live on Long Island, New York. Jack is a retired dentist. Jack is Jewish and Betty Jean converted. Their daughter Barbara followed her mother's example of bravely and happily marrying out of the ordinary, a black man.
Marjorie is semi-retired from her career of school psychologist and is Mrs Bernie Kahn. They have three brilliant sons, two of whom are psychiatrists. Marjorie and Bernie live in Canton, Ohio.
The youngest daughter of Paul is Martha Sue, married to Bill Gent, also of German descent, but although the name is similar to Jent, no one has found a direct connection. They live in Tulsa, Oklahoma where Bill has his own tool supply business and Marsue is a nurse. Their three sons and one daughter are all married, and there are three grandsons, a step granddaughter, and another child soon to be born. I know this family best of that generation, have visited several times and I am very much impressed by all of them. Each time I've been there, the whole family came to dinner.
Two of the grandchildren, Mathew and Steven, are three year old twins whose mother is Japanese, and the boys look nothing alike. Mathew looks Japanese and Steven has entirely different appearance and personality. Mathew is all business, and his play is very purposeful, such as moving a pile of bricks to the other side of the yard where he stacks them neatly. Steven is a dreamy, sweet child whose thoughts, I gather, are not utilitarian. The other grandson is Trevor, Paula's child. Paula lost the sight of one eye when she was a child, and was very shy and lacking in confidence until her marriage, and sheseems very outgoing and confident now.
Jimmy's two children, by Peggy? are Phillip and Barbara, as I said. I think Phillip has three children and so does Barbara, including twins. The last I heard they all live in Painesville, Ohio. Jim and Peggy died before they reached old age, Jimmy from leukaemia and Peggy from a heart attack.
Aunt Pauline cared more for her daughter-in-law Ruth than for the others, but with Ruth she was uneasy because it was her son who was leading Ruth and the children such a precarious existence. Paul's wife Anna Hackney (always referred to as Anna-Paul's-wife) hated Aunt Pauline. I heard her talk about it when she was about 88, the year before she died. Anna was no housekeeper and she didn't take care of her babies very well, and Aunt Pauline couldn't overlook the fact that her grandchildren didn't have proper meals and were often wet and dirty while their mother played the piano. Anna didn't endear herself to her daughters either. They thought she was a pain in the neck. Marsue told me that she learned after she was grown up that her mother had forged her own birth certificate because she knew someone in the courthouse who helped on it to conceal the fact that she was ten years older than the man she decided to marry. The last few years of their marriage, she had to be a mother to Paul because he suffered from and died because of Alzheimer's disease and had to be cared for like a toddler.
Aunt Mary was probably the least attractive physically of the five girls, but she was outstanding in her kindness and devotion to her sisters and in her ability to laugh her way through a life that was not very funny. According to my mother, it was Mary who kept them all alive on shipboard, by blithely making friends with upper class passengers so that she could sneak good food they gave her to her seasick sisters. The Koester children were Anna, (each sister named one daughter for my mother) Helen, Florence, Willie and Walter. I think there were also two others who died as babies. Uncle Will was a bricklayer, which was considered a good trade in those days, but they were always poor. Florence, Willie and Walter were full of the dickens, always doing something for a laugh. Helen and Anna were more serious. Helen was the only one who went to college. She married rather late in life, taught school, and had no children.
Anna married Will Finkemeir and their children were Arlene and Henry William, now called Bill. Emil became an alcoholic and their family life was very dismal. Anna had a secret child by another man, boarded her out somewhere until she was six months old, and then brought her home, saying she was boarding her for a family in which the mother had died. When the child named Dorothy was six, Anna died, and her sister Helen found Dorothy's birth certificate. The marvel of all this was that Arlene said her mother had never been away from home one night during what must have been her dreadful pregnancy, Arlene had always slept with her mother and never suspected she was pregnant. Arlene married quite young and had one child who lived only two months. Arlene died suddenly at about 50.
Florence married Clyde Walls, who was responsible for finding the English cousins when he was in England during the war. They had no children but adopted Dorothy. Dorothy has had a rocky marital career, and I don't know where she is now or how many children she had, but she was the mainstay of Florence and Clyde in their old age.
Willie married when he was very young, had two sons, and no job; so he took work in a junk yard, where he was injured, developed blood poisoning and died as a very young man. His wife and small sons disappeared into the wild blue yonder and we have no idea what happened to them.
Walter married Esther?, had two sons, Dana and Bill. His wife became very unstable because of a brain condition, Walter took to heavy drinking, Dana was not very responsible, and Bill at fourteen took over the family problems, doing his best to reform his father, watch over his mother and hold down an after school job. He writes to me now and then, is married, has one little boy and seems to be still a pretty fine young fellow. His parents are both dead. Dana is married and had three children, (so far as I know) twin girls and a boy named Paul. There seem to be a lot of twins among the Yent offspring. Bill and Dana live in California. Their cousin Bill Finkemeier lives there too, is a well off business man with two grown children. I think Bill F and his cousins are not friends, no doubt the Koesters having too many problems.
Aunt Lina married her cousin August Keyerleber. He was a house builder and Aunt Lina helped him with that, doing all the painting of the houses. She was also an accomplished dressmaker, and her daughters Mathilda and Frieda were always well dressed. Their first child, Anna, died soon after birth. Mathilda had no children but in one of her three marriages, she adopted a daughter, Mary Lou, who now has a married daughter, Cindy. Mathilda, known as Mitzie, has been in a nursing home now for several years. She is very old and no longer competent. Frieda died in her forties. She was never married. Karl, the only son, was a journalist. He married Genie?, and their three children are Gail, Joe and Kathy.
After retirement Karl studied earnestly the subject of alternative energy systems and wrote a book about it. I thought it was an excellent book but he said that by the time he travelled all over studying geothermal and wave movement sites and then wrote it, it was already out of date; so it was never published.
Gail lives in California, has been famous as a sailor on small boats, has been a teacher, and is recently remarried, but she is fighting cancer and is said to be seriously ill. She is about 50. Joe is a marine photographer and film maker. He and his wife live in Washington DC where Meredith (my daughter) sometimes sees him. He made a videotape of Meredith at work that has been used in management conferences. Kathy is one I have never seen. Karl died maybe ten years ago. His wife Genie lives in Cleveland, Ohio.
This was a family in which style and being up to date on prestigious things were stressed by the girls. Not by the parents. Aunt Lina was too busy to bother and Uncle Gust was another dour non-conversational German. Mitzie was one to the first to have a permanent wave and was snippily proud of her fuzzy curls, although it took 8 hours to have it done, and she fainted at the end of the ordeal. Poor Mitzie. Her last years before she was too incapable to live at home, she was a farmer's wife and she helped pick and sell the vegetables. They lived in Saybrook, Ohio.
There were four of us in the family, but only my sister Margaret and I are living. My brother Milton died about 25 years ago of cancer. His son Philip with his wife Irene and son Pierre live in Sedalia, Missouri. Milton's daughter Susan lives in California with her 18 year old son Don Kine, and I think with her second family, but the last I heard there was marital trouble there. Margaret married late in life and didn't have children, but she helped vastly in bringing up my two, Meredith and Connie. For nearly two years now Margaret has lived with Connie, her husband Don Emmerling and Connie's 11 year old daughter Megan Tracy. Margaret is very handicapped, is mostly in a wheel chair, and has poor vision, but she still tries to write letters and read. Actually she knows more about the family than I do, and she did try to get together as much information on the Keyerlebers than anyone else did, but I don't know how much she has. She attended a Keyerleber reunion a few years ago and met many relatives, some of whom we had known years ago and hadn't seen since. Margaret has been a great letter writer.
Meredith, Connie and I all struggled through graduate school to earn Master's Degrees, for what that is worth. Such degrees are a big help in getting jobs, but one doesn't necessarily use the information. Meredith's is in counseling. She is married to Tom Hargrave and they have a ten year old daughter Anna, who is a real gem. Also in their home is Tom's 97 year old father. Tom is the director of the Metropolitan YMCA in Washington DC, and Meredith is Director of Member Services for Group Health Association in Washington. They are very busy people but they manage somehow.
Connie is research librarian for the teachers in the public schools in Richmond, Virginia. I think she has some new title now and is training school librarians in modern methods.
Our brother Ben, the youngest in the family, died in January of this year of cancer. Ben was married but never had children. He was a puzzling character and I seldom saw him since he grew up because he was ultra conservative and religious, which I am not, but I was with him for a week in his last month and enjoyed finding that we still liked to sing and reminisce. He could play the organ better than I can play the piano, which isn't saying much but we both liked it. I am sending you a book I wrote in 1977 which might tell you more about the whole family.
Aunt Mathilda and Uncle Ed lived on Chardon Road in Euclid, Ohio about a quarter mile from Aunt Pauline. They had a chicken farm, plus other crops and Uncle Ed was a very hard working man who expected the whole family to work just as hard, without stopping for such foolishness as reading the mail. He drank quite a lot and then a lot more until he eventually drank himself to death. The family tried all kinds of inducements, bribes, pleading and threats but nothing helped.
The three children are Edna, who is about 85, Hilda, known as Billie, who is 80, and Ed who is about 77. Billie never married. She is in poor health and poor wealth, mostly because she lavished her money on her relatives, especially the sons of her niece Sally. She worked in a factory office until retirement and then she took in a cat, which has had numerous kittens, and they had kittens as well; so she now had a cat dominated house and lives alone with lots of anger and frustration.
Edna married Jack whom she had known for many years, but they put off marriage until they were in their late thirties because of the depression and then they had one child, Alice. Alice has always known her own mind and didn't care much whether 'they', that is, the community gossips, thought she was awful. She married Bill Channel with no wedding fuss, became a cosmetologist, then a restaurant owner and manager and now is a deputy sheriff. After all, she is a very young and able grandmother and thought she might as well do something different. Of all the relatives around Connie's age, she likes Alice best because she is not so traditional. Alice's children are Cindy, now a mother of two, and Jimmy, who has been working for the last few years in a factory, one that pays very high wages, so that he can start college without money worries. Edna has always been gentle and sweet. She is forgetful now and often repeats herself but knows what she is doing. Although depending on Alice in many ways Edna lives alone in a fine apartment that Alice and Bill own. My sister and Edna have always been close friends.
My cousin Ed fell in love with a very shy girl that he saw at a skating pond, married her about 55 years back, and they are still firmly together. Ed has always been a factory worker and farmer. They live on their 50 acre farm still but are not able to do much work there now.
Their three children are Sally, Tim and Lindy. Sally is married to Leonard Coe, and the mother of four sons. The oldest boy is a geologist married to another geologist. They live and work in Colorado. That young man, Jeff, broke the family hold on its members and got away, much to the dismay of his parents and his doting aunt Billie. The second son Chris didn't do so well. He became intensely religious (fundamentally) and sees sin everywhere. Married and the father of a six year old girl, he is said to pay little attention to either wife or child. The third son Scott is almost totally deaf from birth, but he works at a cement plant, drives a car and has journeyed across country to see America. The fourth son is 12 year old Danny, a very special joy to his parents.
The second child of Ed and Arlene is Tim, a big blonde man, whose ambition was to be a dairy farmer, and he was that for as much as 20 years. His wife Helen was a widow with two sons, who helped Tim until they married and left home; then he had 100 cows and a huge barn with a huge mortgage. The dairy business is now a cutthroat operation, and two years ago Tim and Helen lost their home and business. Tim now works in a lumber yard and lives with his parents. Helen is there too on weekends because she has some kind of job too far away to allow commuting.
The third child of that family is Lindy, a nurse, the mother of Raymond and Tracy, who are young adults. They all live in rural Ohio, close together except for Jeff in Colorado. The Ed Scheuring family is fond of saying in one way or another 'In our family, we always (or we never) do this or that'. This is an aspersion on how others live, Alice for example, and certainly my daughters, who have been divorced. (Heavens!) and my Meredith is married to a black man. They no longer say much about that and they treat our beloved Anna all right when they see her, but that is seldom.
I don't know if this is the kind of information you wanted. Other addresses or facts are available if you want them. I tried to give you personal ideas instead of mere facts. This may be far more than you bargained for, but if you find it interesting, how about telling me about the Ients?
Our family was closer to the Scheurings than to any of the others. After Uncle Ed died, Aunt Mathilda sold the farm and moved to Painesville where we lived and we saw her a lot and always enjoyed her. We also loved to go to their farm when we were young. Billie and Edna played the piano and we sang our heads off while Mom and Aunt Mathilda fixed cakes and pies and ham sandwiches and potato salad.
The address you had was where I've been working summers for the last 3 years. I am 75, how old are you?

Q: Perl Parse XML file over HTTP with a few extra lines I'm trying to write a script that can gather information from an XML file from a remote server. The remote server requires authentication. I was able to authenticate since it uses basic authentication, but it appears that I'm unable to parse the data because of all the lines before the XML file. Is there a way to avoid getting all those lines and correctly parse the XML file?
Code
#! /usr/bin/perl

use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Request::Common;

use XML::Simple;

$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;

$req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => 'https://192.168.1.10/getxml?/home/');
$ua->ssl_opts(SSL_verify_mode => SSL_VERIFY_NONE); #Used to ignore certificate
$req->authorization_basic('admin', 'test');
$test = $ua->request($req)->as_string;

print $test;
# create object
my $xml = new XML::Simple;

# read XML file
my $data = $xml->XMLin("$test");

A: The $test = $ua->request($req)->as_string; invocation is returning a string representation of the entire request (headers plus content).
Change this to $test = $ua->request($req)->content;.
This will return only the content, minus the header.

A: I would find a match for the first < and get the rest of the data from there. That will skip the first items which are not of interest to you.  The code would look like:
$test =~ m/(<.*)/s;
my $xmlData = $1;
my $data = $xml->XMLin("$xmlData");
# Fix the print to get the item for which I believe you are trying to obtain
print $data->{SystemUnit}{ProductId}{content}."\n";

where we capture < and everything which follows using the s modifier to indicate the items should be treated as one string of character (basically to ignore newlines).  The $1 is the captured data from the match statement, which I assigned to a variable in case you would like to print it or view it in the debugger.  In addition, I added the following to get "TEST SYSTEM" as the content of the ProductId Tag.


The LG Revolution, one of the first 4G LTE on the planet, is set to receive a new update as build number VS910ZVB. The update itself is nothing to write home about, as it only contains security patches plus the removal of a handful of bloatware apps like Rockband, Bitbop, Verizon Apps, Blockbuster, etc. The list is actually longer than that if you can believe it, so if anything, your device will have freed up space on its internal storage.
The update is 46.8MB in size.

A scientist prepares a sample for Covid-19 testing at Glasgow Lighthouse facility
The number of Covid cases involving the Omicron variant in Scotland has risen to 29.
A total of 16 new cases have been recorded in the past 24 hours, including in the Highland, Grampian and Forth Valley health boards for the first time.
The cases are now also no longer linked to a single event, with several different sources of infection across the country.
One is a Steps concert at the OVO Hydro arena in Glasgow on November 22, to which six cases are linked.
No cases to date have been identified from the event the following night at the same venue, and health officials say the risk to those who attended the gigs is low.
Only those who are contacted by Test & Protect or develop symptoms will be required to isolate.
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is now home to 11 Omicron cases, while NHS Lanarkshire has nine.
Three cases have been recorded in the Highland area, one in Grampian and five in Forth Valley.
The Omicron outbreak in Scotland started in Greater Glasgow and Clyde and Lanarkshire, with nine cases linked to a single private event on November 20.

First minister Nicola Sturgeon
Sturgeon said: "The number of Omicron cases now being reported in Scotland is rising, and cases are no longer all linked to a single event, but to several different sources including a Steps concert at the Hydro on 22 November.
"This confirms our view that there is now community transmission of this variant within Scotland. Given the nature of transmission we would expect to see cases rise – perhaps significantly – in the days ahead.
"However, health protection teams are continuing work through contact tracing, isolation and testing to slow the spread as far as possible while we learn more about the new variant's impact. Ministers are also keeping the situation under daily review."
Scotland has recorded 16 coronavirus-linked deaths and 2,432 new cases in the past 24 hours, according to the latest data.
It means the death toll under this daily measure, of people who first tested positive for the virus within the previous 28 days, is 9,634.
The daily test positivity rate was 7.6%, according to data published by the Scottish Government on Friday, up from 7.4% the previous day.
There were 652 people in hospital with recently confirmed Covid-19 as of Wednesday night, down 28 in 24 hours and, of these, 46 people were in intensive care, down two.
So far, 4,350,133 people have received their first dose of a Covid-19 vaccination, 3,954,992 have had a second, and 1,790,728 have been given a third dose or booster.

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. We propose to investigate the organization and function of proteins and protein complexes within cells in order to elucidate how atomic-scale dynamics drives large-scale cellular processes. For our studies, we employ the highly efficient molecular dynamics (MD) program NAMD, developed in our lab, to carry out large-size and long-time simulations of seven key processes taking place in nearly all cellular organisms. MD affords a simultaneous resolution in both time and space for the study of these processes unattainable by experimental techniques. With our recently developed MD Flexible Fitting method, we join MD and experiment, taking atomic-resolution, but unphysiological, crystal structures and fit them to lower resolution, but physiologically relevant, electron-microscopy data, yielding structures representing functional macro-molecular systems. Actually, all of our projects involve close collaboration with experimentalists. We propose to study (i) how proteins fold from an unfolded starting sequence, (ii) how proteins are synthesized by the ribosome and (iii) how nascent proteins are exported into cellular membranes or excreted. On a larger scale, we seek to study how cells shape their internal membranes, by proteins called (iv) BAR domains or by (v) integral membrane proteins. Lastly, we investigate key components of transcription in cells, (vi) helicases, that unwind double stranded DNA, and (vii) nuclear pore proteins that control export and import between a cells cytoplasm and nucleoplasm.
