This week is short and sweet – so you can enjoy some blogs and get back to gaming and writing. And before you know it, the steady stream of holiday blockbusters will be upon us. That's either good or bad, depending on your backlog (mine is now an entire hockey duffle bag under my bed, hidden away like an embarrassing secret).
Blogger Psykologic makes a great point: Sometimes games that are bad at launch become fantastic after some patching and updates. Heck, he even mentions how BioWare "fixed" Mass Effect 3's ending (which was fine the first time, for me, and really didn't change much through the update), making fans happier and keeping them loyal.
GerardoExber knows that a good video game soundtrack can, and will, stick with you for days. I still hum video game tunes I haven't heard in nearly two decades, but such is the power of a good soundtrack. See if any of the games Gerardo praises in his blog are ones you love listening to, and then leave your favorite tunes in the comments.
When you're lucky enough to think of Thanksgiving and also think video games, then that's one mighty fine holiday tradition, Haley Shipley. I mean, how cool is it to have two TVs set up at the holiday gathering place that are used exclusively for video games?
The Dark Cloud 2 image sucked me into GerardoExber's blog, but the copy made me stay. While his story hits on familiar notes like college getting in the way of gaming, fall is a time for our writer to sit back, dig through the backlog, and beat some games that are starting to clutter the coffee table.
Dalin Briggs' post is unique in that he has five games that makes him think and feel fall. It's a diverse list with an eclectic mix of reasons as to why they make the cut. The Mass Effect obsession is particularly fun and interesting. But as a whole, fall is a time for gaming for Briggs.
This is one divisive RPG, but Brendon Curzio is firmly in the I-love-it camp. Some reasons why pertain to the story, characters, and even the drama of it all. I remember enjoying it when it was new on PS One, but haven't played it in years. Glad to hear it still holds up.
Tell me about your favorite local multiplayer game. I recently got the chance to play Smash Bros. with a buddy on the same TV for the first time in 13 years, and it was magical. From Mario Party to Goldeneye, there are certainly some fun local multiplayer games out there – and memories and stories to match them.
I'll be gone all weekend traveling to the Fargo area, but please don't hesitate to hit me up for some Monster Hunter shenanigans. Leave a friend code in the comments, and don't be afraid to message me on Twitter or via Game Informer.


I was following this project for some time since someone posted a thread on bay12 forums. To me it looks like this game might be quite interesting to play.
But my question is about modding. You mentioned several times on your website that you are working on some scripting api. Where can I read more about it and how is it going to work?
Basically, how is modding going to work for this game?
We are planning to have a wiki with detailed info on how modding works, and all APIs available for modders.
But generally modding is very simple for VoidExpanse, when the game becomes available you could just open core.cpk file (it is actually just a zip file) and see all insides of the game. You can then create a mod that would replace any resource or add a new one.
We will also make available some modding tools that we use ourselves in development of the game.
If you have any particular questions feel free to ask!
It's really easy. You could start by opening the original data archive of the game. Just rename it to core.zip and you can open to see what's inside.
There you can modify any of the game data. It's really as easy as editing a few values.
Hey im just wondering if there is a way to make my own hulls and what software to use ?
Any chance you could list out what modding tools you might eventually be releasing? Just a bit of curiosity on my part.
Without them, and this seems something that would go well on the wiki, it would be grand if we could get a list of what some of the more obscure variables mean and the settings for each. A good example might be ammo_meter; I assume that 1 means a ballistic/missile meter and 2 means a percentage laser meter, but it'd be handy to have information like that at one's fingertips.
One specific one, though: for particle effects in some places it seems to list out four variables. I figure three have to be RGB values; fourth might be luminosity or something? Any information on this would be handy as I do a bit of my tinkering.
Edit: Two more quick questions for when someone has a second. First, for homing weapons, is the listed value for homing under projectiles degrees per second of tracking? And second, if I create an entirely new item will it automatically populate into station stores by itself or do I need to add it to a list of 'shop gear'?
Well, I can tell you what we have so far at least.
1. Physics application that allows us to create physics definitions for the ships, stations, etc.
2. Mod packer (console based and windows application).
3. Items agreggator - allows to see all items sorted by different properties, makes it easier to balance things.
But apart from the physics app the rest isn't really that important. You can create any mods just by editing text files.
Without them, and this seems something that would go well on the wiki, it would be grand if we could get a list of what some of the more obscure variables mean and the settings for each.
No problem, you can just ask any particular questions and I will either answer here or create a separate wiki article.
The fourth one is alpha, so it is the standard RGBA notation.
First, for homing weapons, is the listed value for homing under projectiles degrees per second of tracking?
Tracking is defined in the ships slots and is not linked to weapons themselves.
While homing is a property of a projectile and is specified inside the weapon.
And second, if I create an entirely new item will it automatically populate into station stores by itself or do I need to add it to a list of 'shop gear'?
But it will not be added to drop lists from pirates/aliens because these are defined manually. But they can be changed to be dynamic too, though.
Sorry, chose my words poorly. I've tinkered with the chassis a bit and know about the tracking in there, I was referring specifically to the homing value under the projectile tag, yep. Just curious as to what the value actually means in hard math. If, say, a missile has a homing of 50, I figured it meant either it could continue homing if the target was within a 50-degree arc, or it could turn at 50 degrees per second, or something like that... but I wasn't sure, so I figured I'd ask.
Thanks for all of the rest of the answers, they helped a ton! Good deal on the modding tools as well, that'll help me a ton once you toss it up given the nature I've what I've been tinkering with, mostly just some odd/exotic weapons and modules.
Ah, yes. It is degrees per second. Most of the values if they are not set as-is are per second.
As for the tools, I will ask our guys to polish the physics app so we can release at least this one.
Rock on, and thanks again for all the help!
Quick question of the day: armor value, is that a percentage of damage nullified or a flat amount off every shot that lands? IE, if a ship has 20 total armor, is that -20 damage/attack or 20% less damage to hull?
Flat value removed from incoming damage.
How do scattering munitions work? I see that for the Scatterpack mine, it basically just has an additional projectile field with the quantity and properties of submunitions (5 smaller mines for the Scatterpack). It also has a Scatter Time attribute tag, but for lack of a better term I'm not really sure what each of the attributes does. So, a few basic questions!
2. If not, what determines when the weapon goes into 'scatter mode' and separates into the submunitions?
3. Do weapons that scatter need to be destructible objects, with an associated .obj file, or can they be simple sprites?
Thanks in advance for any answers, or if you have an easier way to explain the process behind scattering weapons.
Hello! I will try to answer these questions.
2. There is a parameter in projectile properties (in weapon xml) - something like 'scatter delay'. It determines when projectile splits into smaller parts.
3. They can be sprites of course.
First parameter is an index of base projectile, from which scattering parts will be emitted. Second parameter - is a time, on which projectiles will be emitted.
Base projectile must exist to emit scattering projectiles. And base projectile may not be destroyed after that!
I hope I gave enough information on this matter to work with.

Q: BJT 2 stage amplifier all I'm pretty new to electronics so my question may be a little ambiguous.
I have designed a two-stage amplifier using 2N3904's. the total ac gain should be over 5000. would this circuit do it? according to my calculations, it should work.
as far as the bypass caps, I have no idea on how to calculate them.
any help will be appreciated.

A: Each transistor runs near 5mA, thus reac ( 1/gm) is near 5 ohms. The collector resistors are each 1Kohm, thus maximum gain is 1,000 / 5 = 200.
Total maximum gain, ignoring Re of stage1, and the loading upon stage1 by stage2, etc, will be 200 * 200 = 40,000.
Now for the realities. Finite beta, assume 100, and the low reac of 5 ohms, tells us the Rin is at most 5 * 100 = 500. This is ignoring the biasing resistors. Gain drops by (500 || 1,000) / 1,000 =  0.333x. We are still ignoring the discrete Re1a of 3 ohms. Gain now has dropped by 67% in each stage,
thus total gain is 40,000 * 1/3 * 1/3 = 40,000/9 = 4,444x.
Now the non-zero Rsource, and the non-zero Re1a, get included in your gain.
By the way, given the 2nd order and 3rd order Intermodulation Intercepts for a bipolar (at any bias current, assuming non-saturated) are both near -10dBv (+- some dBv, but we'll approximate both wrongly as -10dBv), that -10dBv being a peak number used in a Taylor Series model of the emitter diode nonlinearity, and -10dBv is 0.316 volts, and given the 3rd order products drop 20 dBc for every 10dB dropoff from the Intercept Point (that -10dBv), to have 0.1% distortion which is 3 factors of 20dB you need to be 3*10dB below -10dBv IP3.
Thus for 0.1% distortion IM3, you need an input of about the size -10dBv IP - 3*10dB = -40dBv. Which is 0.01 volts input peak. Scaled by gain of 5,000, the output is 50 volts peak. Thus a whole nother world exists when you care about distortion.
Here is log-log plot of signal_in and signal_out levels, to illustrate distortion

simulate this circuit – Schematic created using CircuitLab

A: For any decent amplifier you will want the quiescent voltage at the collector of stage 1 to be about 50% of the supply rail (7.5 volts). This means that with a 1 kohm collector resistor you should design the collector current to be about 7.5 mA.
So, here's the first slight issue - you have 5.38 volts DC on the base and this sets the emitter at about 4.7 volts. This means emiiter current is about 4.7 mA and collector current is about the same. Not a show-stopper but not ideal.
So, collector current is 4.7 mA and this gives an \$r_E\$ of 26 mV/4.7 mA i.e. your internal emitter resistance will be about 5.6 ohms. Add this tou your external AC resistor (RE1A) of 3 ohms and the gain of the first stage is: -
RC1/8.6 ohms  = 1000/8.6 = 116.
However, the loading from the 2nd stage across RC1 will drop this somewhat. But how much loading?
Using the same calculation for \$r_E\$ we get the AC impedance at the emitter to be 5.6 ohms and this can be reflected to the base by transforming it by hFE. Looking at the DS of the 2N3904 I make an estimate of hFE being about 150 so, reflected \$r_E\$ is about 840 ohms.
This is the dominat impedance loading the collector of the first stage and reduces RC1 to an equivalent of 456 ohms.
This means that the gain of the first stage (with the 2nd stage connected and loading) is about 456/8.6 = 53.
For the 2nd stage, \$r_E\$ is 5.6 ohms and RC2 is 1,000 || 10,000 hence its gain is 909/5.6 = 162. Total gain is therefore 53 x 162 = 8604.
However, there will be significant distortion as the output signal level rises due to the non-linearities of relying on \$r_E\$ as a gain limiting factor.

A: To be clear and to protect from future edits to the question, here is the circuit you are asking about:

You want a gain of 5000, so at best that means a gain of 71 from each stage.  That is too much gain to expect a single-transistor stage to have.  You therefore should be expecting at least 3 stages.  If the gain is balanced between stages, that would mean a gain of 17 per stage.  That is more manageable, but still has problems.
Even with a gain of 17 per stage, the gain won't be all that well controlled.  A better way is to make more open loop gain, then use negative feedback to set the closed loop gain to what you really want.  The feedback ratio, which defines that closed loop gain, can be set by two resistors.  This allows good predictability and flat frequency response.
Another thing to consider is to use both NPN and PNP transistors together.  Transistors are cheap and small, so there is no reason to economize the number of transistors.  Using NPN and PNP together, even in the same stage, can have advantages of impedance, stage gain, and distortion.
If you just want something like a microphone amplifier and the result is more important than the journey, just use a couple of opamps.
However, to your specific circuit:
*

*3 Ω for RE1A (Argh.  Just number them next time.)  is so low that it might as well not be there.  With only 3 Ω on the emitter, the non-linear effects of the B-E junction will dominate.  The approximation of constant B-E voltage is no longer valid.  You have to keep the capabilities of the transistors in mind.

*You may think the gain of the first stage is RC1/RE1A, but it's not since RE1A is so absurdly low.  If the intent is to have a reasonably linear amplifier, don't try to get more than a gain of 20 out of a single stage like that.  A gain of 10 would be better, especially if there is no global negative feedback.

*C1 will cause a high pass filter working against Rs.  Ignoring the additional input impedance of the first stage, that comes out to 265 Hz.  Is that what you intended?  If you care about lower frequencies, then you have to re-think C1
To be fair, the input impedance of the first stage adds to the effective resistance that C1 is working against, but that is rather unpredictable.  It's not going to be very high due to the very low RE1A.

*C2 is 1000x larger than C1, although it is used in about the same situation.  What the...?

*C4 and RE1B form a high pass rolloff of 1.6 Hz.  Make up your mind.

*The second stage has no local AC feedback at all.  That makes its gain unpredictable and dependent on the particular transistor you happen to pick out of the box.  Note that gains of individual transistors can vary up to several times, even from the same production lot.
If you are looking for a linear amplifier result, such a stage is a bad idea, at least without global negative feedback.

A: You can get the high gain you want in two stages. To get to a gain of 5000, you need \$\sqrt{5000}\approx 71\$ per stage. That's doable.
Let's start with some specifications. Because of the high gain, I'm going to require a \$15\:\text{V}\$ power supply in order to keep this simple and easy. To get lots of gain from each stage, I am going to estimate a quiescent collector voltage around \$7\:\text{V}\$. The unloaded gain is \$A_v=\frac{V_\text{CC}-V_\text{C}}{V_\text{T}}\approx 300\$. The second stage will very significantly load down the first stage, though. (I'm assuming you use a low impedance signal generator for the first stage and that you do not significantly load the second stage.)
I'll reserve about \$2.5\:\text{V}\$ as the minimum collector voltage to provide some headroom for \$V_\text{CE}\$ and \$V_\text{E}\$. This means I'm limited on the last stage to about \$\pm 4\:\text{V}\$ of swing.
I'll use the exact same stage twice. So let's just design the last stage first, since we know what the output quiescent point and swing needs to be there. Here's the basic concept:

simulate this circuit – Schematic created using CircuitLab
I'm going to select \$I_{\text{C}_\text{Q}}=5\:\text{mA}\$ as a starting point. This means \$r_e= \frac{V_\text{T}}{I_\text{C}}\approx 5\:\Omega\$.
$$\begin{align*}R_\text{C}&=\left\{\begin{array}{l}
\frac{15\:\text{V}-7\:\text{V}}{5\:\text{mA}}&=1600\:\Omega\\\text{standard value}&=1.5\:\text{k}\Omega\end{array}\right.\\R_\text{E}&=\left\{\begin{array}{l}
\frac{1.5\:\text{V}}{15\:\text{V}-7\:\text{V}}\cdot 1.5\:\text{k}\Omega &=280\:\Omega\\\text{standard value}&=270\:\Omega\end{array}\right.\\C_\text{2}&=\left\{\begin{array}{l}
\frac{1}{2\pi\cdot\left(f=1\:\text{kHz}\right)\cdot 10\%\:r_e} &=320\:\mu\text{F}\\\text{standard value}&=270\:\mu\text{F}\end{array}\right.\end{align*}$$
(Here you can see how I might estimate the value of the capacitor. I used about 10% of the value of \$r_e\$ at the lowest frequency of interest. Bigger in this case wouldn't hurt. But there's already going to be more gain than you need. So I'm leaving it as is.)
From this, I can now estimate \$V_{\text{E}_\text{Q}}=\left(15\:\text{V}-7\:\text{V}\right)\cdot\frac{R_\text{E}}{R_\text{C}}=1.44\:\text{V}\$ and add \$700\:\text{mV}\$ to get about \$V_{\text{B}_\text{Q}}\approx 2.2\:\text{V}\$. I'm going to shoot for about \$400\:\mu\text{A}\$ as the divider current. This means:
$$\begin{align*}R_\text{1}&=\left\{\begin{array}{l}
\frac{15\:\text{V}-2.2\:\text{V}}{400\:\mu\text{A}}&=32\:\text{k}\Omega\\\text{standard value}&=33\:\text{k}\Omega\end{array}\right.\\
R_\text{2}&=\left\{\begin{array}{l}
\frac{2.2\:\text{V}}{400\:\mu\text{A}-33\:\mu\text{A}} &=6\:\text{k}\Omega\\\text{standard value}&=5.6\:\text{k}\Omega\end{array}\right.\end{align*}$$
Now let's stick two of these together:

simulate this circuit
The first stage will load your source, probably cutting the signal in half. The second stage is going to load the first stage quite a bit, too. I wouldn't be surprised to see a factor of 3 lost. A total gain here of perhaps \$\frac{1}{2}\cdot 250\cdot 250\cdot\frac{1}{3}\approx 10,000\$. That's more than you need. (Gain on the first stage shouldn't vary a lot as the signal moves up and down, because the signal is still small there. But the second stage might be just a little asymmetrical. But probably you won't notice.)
Don't feed it a signal larger than about \$50\:\mu\text{V}\$, to start. See where that takes the output before trying anything more.

Niagara Daredevils (Tightrope)
Thrills and Spills over Niagara Falls
by Cheryl MacDonald
historical, post-confederation (1867-)
""Blondin's daring and cool demeanour made him an instant celebrity - on one [tightrope crossing, he carried a small cook stove, stopped midway, fried up two omelettes, and lowered them to spectators aboard the Maid of the Mist."" This book will be especially fascinating for all readers interested in: history, or adventure. From swimmers and jumpers, to tightrope walkers and barrel riders, Niagara Falls has attracted daredevils for almost 200 years. The spectacular falls and dangerous Whirlpool Rapids have inspired men and women to commit daring stunts in search of fame and fortune. Many lived to tell the tale, while others perished in the attempt. Their stories are amazing.
Cheryl MacDonald has been writing about Canadian history since 1976. In addition to nearly forty history books and a weekly history column, she has written historical articles for such magazines as The Beaver and Maclean's. She lives near Nanticoke, Ontario.

Homeland Politics
Kocharyan: We Do Not Recognize Election Results & Will Apply to Constitutional Court, Not Yet Decided To Take Parliamentary Mandate.
Posted on June 22, 2021 by The Editor
DEVELOPING STORY: The Hayastan Dashinq will appeal the results of the election to the constitutional court, and it has not decided whether it will take its parliamentary mandates, said Robert Kocharyan, Second President of Armenia, and the leader of the Hayastan Dashinq during a post-election press conference.
Here are the takeaways from the Hayastan Dashinq post-election press conference:
According to Hayastan Dashinq's candidate, Robert Kocharyan, "The election results were unexpected not only for us, but for the whole people, because all polls showed completely different numbers."
Hayastan Dashinq does not recognize the election results and will appeal to the constitutional court.
The bloc has been asked whether they have lost or not. This is not a presidential election with only one winner. Those who do not get into parliament lose in the parliamentary elections, according to Kocharyan.
Hayastan Dashinq has not yet decided whether their bloc will take the parliamentary mandates or not.
If the authorities continue to pursue the same policy of vendettas and provocations, then most likely we will face another early elections.
Kocharyan states that he does not see himself in parliament, describing himself as a person of the executive branch. But he has reiterated that he hasn't made a final decision yet.
How can you believe in the authorities of Armenia, about the so-called reconciliation, if at the same time they are again trying to arrest doctor Armen Charchyan, who saved thousands of lives. Charchyan isn't the director of the Izmirlian Medical Center and a representative of the Hayastan Dashinq.
"This was the last bullet of the revolution," Kocharyan commented on the reason for their defeat. Kocharyan expressed confidence that the majority of those voting for the current government actually voted against the return of the former government.
Kocharyan noted that they intend to continue to fight for what they stand for both in the m parliament and in the streets. Against this background, he cited the words of his colleague, former Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan, that "it is necessary to preserve and strengthen the occupied borders." "Yesterday we discussed this issue, and Seyran Ohanyan made an interesting comparison with the war, said that if you do not solve the whole problem on the battlefield, but take some trenches, then you should not leave these trenches, but strengthen them for further attack. We do not have a war, but this is a political struggle, and this comparison can perhaps be applied to us. Yes, I think that we have received very serious new opportunities to continue our struggle," Kocharian said.

It's pronounced "Knee high," as in "knee high to a grasshopper." A non-partisan, non-profit outfit based in Cambridge, it's a prominent member of Boston's rich brain trust of researchers and thinkers trying to figure out how to make the system of medical care better. And it's now shifting its name to pure acronym — that is, NEHI no longer officially stands for New England Healthcare Institute-- because more and more, it's going national.
The name change to NEHI will be coupled with a marketing campaign called "NEHI: Taking It National." The campaign supports events and activities related to NEHI's research that will take place around the country in 2011 for NEHI's members and other national health care stakeholders.
NEHI works within three broad areas to address key issues in health care: promoting medical innovation, improving quality and efficiency, and fostering wellness and prevention. As a member-based organization, NEHI brings together diverse perspectives from the health care community to find mutual solutions to shared health care problems.
NEHI's website is here. By the way, it's in good company. As I recall, BMJ used to stand for British Medical Journal, but now is considered simply BMJ. And AARP is "formerly the American Association of Retired Persons," though that may not comfort the new-minted 50-year-olds who get the dreaded AARP cards in the mail.

England failed to capitalise on a promising start to the match when crashing out of the Four Nations at the hands of Australia at Wembley on Sunday. The team just needed to avoid defeat to book their place in what would be a rematch against the Kangaroos at Anfield this weekend, but faltered in the second half to bow out with a 36-18 loss. During a low scoring first half-hour, things were looking promising for England, with a Jermaine McGillvary try along with the first of three goals from Gareth Widdop to give them a 6-2 advantage. England seemed to falter at the back from this point onwards, however, and some messy defending helped Australia to weave their way to a 6-10 lead at the break.
From there it seemed to be one-way traffic, with tries for Inglis, Scott, Gillett and Holmes as well as a fantastic finish from Josh Dugan. With the clinical boot of Johnathon Thurston kicking the extra after four of the six Australia tries in addition to two goal kicks. England just looked to lack a certain intelligence on the pitch, in particular during that second half, and despite Widdop and Ryan Hall both going over during an impressive ten minute period for the home side, they could ultimately find no answer and lost out by a scoreline that perhaps didn't quite reflect their decent efforts. The game was high quality test match rugby league for the most part, and the simple fact of the matter was that England were outplayed.
Following a scare against Scotland last Friday in a game which eventually ended in a draw, Australia will now play New Zealand in Liverpool on Sunday in what is a mouth-watering prospect of an all-Oceanic final where the top two ranked league nations in the world will take each other on in what promises to be a top class game. Its outcome will surely all depend whether Australia can carry over some of that second half form from last weekend, while they'll also be hoping that New Zealand will be looking as vulnerable as they were when trailing the Scots (who as the rotating 'fourth nation' in the year's tournament were considered heavy underdogs) with just ten minutes to go in their final group stage game.
As for England, they shouldn't be too disheartened by their performance on Sunday, and the calls for Wayne Bennett to be dismissed are arguably premature; they came up against probably the toughest rugby league side in the world in this high-pressure game, and based on the performance alone, they certainly didn't disgrace themselves.

Parents and families affected by childhood dementia are robbed of many joys of everyday life with their children, and witnessing their child's rapid decline is extremely distressing for parents and family members.
Several different groups of neurological diseases cause dementia in children.2 There is little research into the prevalence of all of these different forms of childhood dementia in the UK, so the total number of children affected by these diseases remains an estimate.
The Dementia Strikes Children Too campaign aims to raise awareness of childhood dementia, drive for better clinical education of this group of diseases, and put in place the systems and tools for earlier diagnosis.
This community-driven campaign has been co-developed by many families, and three patient support organisations, with the support of biopharmaceutical company BioMarin, in order to help share the stories of real children living with this group of diseases.
YOU CAN LISTEN TO THEIR STORIES HERE.
To create real change, the Dementia Strikes Children Too campaign is attempting to reach as many people as possible in the UK. We need your help!
You can do this by tweeting your own MP about childhood dementia, and calling for them to support the campaign by visiting this website, learning more and getting involved in campaign activity. You can find your local MP's Twitter handle using the 'Tweet Your MP' webtool.

I love the idea of cooking what's in season. It's a wonderfully satisfying act with political and economic undertones—putting my money where my mouth is. And the more I read about the current state of our food economy, the more important that becomes to me. But moreover, it tastes better. And this is why I love Alice Waters. She reminds me that I don't need to rant and rave and jump around to create change—though sometimes I still do. It starts by asking simple questions about where your food comes from and how it was raised and continues at the dinner table, with good friends and good food.
So that's what I did this week. I made my political statement for dinner. I bought organic, heirloom tomatoes from Givens Farms, fresh green and purple basil, marjoram, thyme and Italian parsley and invited Brooke and her husband over to join Neal and I for homemade cannelloni a la Alice Waters. I persevered, even after slicing my hand on a broken glass, rolling out fresh pasta dough, mincing the garlic and chopping up fresh herbs. I used the amazing Buffala milk ricotta from Bubalus Bubalis in the filling and pasture-raised eggs from Lily Farms in Santa Barbara. And finished the night off with homemade ginger ice cream, but that's another post.
Mix ricotta, parmigiano, salt, pepper, cayenne and herbs together. Taste for seasoning. Add eggs and mix again.
Make pasta dough following your favorite method. I like to mix it until it just comes together with the paddle attachment on my Kitchen Aid, combine it into a ball by hand, then knead it with the dough hook for about 10 minutes. Let pasta dough rest at least 15 minutes before rolling it out.
Roll dough into 12 rectangles about seven inches long and six inches wide. Cook one at a time in salted boiling water, keeping the noodle firmly al dente. Cool in a cold water bath, then lay on a clean cloth. If you stack them they will stick!
Spoon about two tablespoons of the ricotta mixture onto each rectangle and roll into a loose tube shape. Place in a buttered baking dish in one layer (you may need two baking dishes). Brush the tops with melted butter. Bake in 425-degree oven for about 15 minutes, until puffed up and lightly crisped.
While the cannelloni are backing, heat olive oil in a non-reactive pan over medium high heat. Add garlic and let sizzle for about 30 seconds without letting it brown. Add diced tomatoes and cook until they just start to relax and give up their juice, about three to five minutes. Add a little chopped green and basil, salt and pepper to taste, stir and remove from heat.
Serve the cannelloni with the tomato sauce and more chopped basil.
Beautifully said and masterfully created!
Oh, and in case anyone is wondering–I can personally attest that every bite was absolutely delicious! I never knew pasta could have such a delicate texture and incredibly elegant flavor.
This cannelloni recipe is a celebration of summer!
Before I discovered food blogging, I don't think I would have even known what cooking or eating in season was! I've learned a lot, and I although I could be better, I do try to eat in season! This cannelloni dish sounds amazing!
That's awesome, Deborah! Learning about food is one of my favorite parts of cooking. Let me know if you try the cannelloni.
I have a four-year-old daughter who loves to be in the kitchen, so I'm excited about your kid-friendly recipes. I'll keep you posted when I give these a shot.


Siem Reap, Cambodia, is set to be brought to life with powerful images from across Asia when the annual Angkor Photo Festival and Workshops lands in December.
Now in its 14th year, the festival started life with the aim of nurturing young Asian talent by providing them with a platform to develop their skills and showcase their work. Since then, hundreds of amateur photographers have attended to learn from the variety of professional photographers who attend to share their knowledge.
This year's event will feature a series of exhibitions, seminars and workshops spread across 10 days.
The free professional development workshops take place from 8 to 14 December, and will see 30 emerging Asian photographers tap into the talents of their established peers.
They will be led by seven internationally-renowned photographers that include Kim Hak and Sopheak Vong from Cambodia and Andrea Fernandes from India.
Throughout the festival, five exhibitions will be dotted throughout the city in public spaces and private venues.
These include the World Press Photo Exhibition 2018, which opens at Mirage Art Space on 14 December and The Architect's Brother, which opens on 8 December at One Eleven Gallery and features images from Shana and Robert ParkeHarrison.
From 14 to 18 December, work from more than 40 photographers can be seen at Projections, the festival's main daily event. The Closing Night will see the work produced by the 30 workshop participants displayed. And each morning, photographers can attend the daily portfolio reviews to receive feedback from the panel of professionals.
If you are interested in photography and going to Siem Reap, why not sign up for a Siem Reap photography tour?
The annual Anjali Photo Workshop runs alongside the festival from 5 to 14 December. Launched by Magnum photographer Antoine D'Agata, it provides a platform for creative expression through photographer for street kids at NGO Anjali House.

Chrysler Museum of Art Spotlights the Impact of Sea-Level Rise and Climate Change in New Exhibitions
Anastasia Samoylova (American, b. Soviet Union, 1984), Camouflage, 2017, Edition 3 of 5, Pigment print, Courtesy of the artist
NORFOLK, VA. (Jan. 10, 2022) – The Chrysler Museum of Art unites the work of artists and scientists to explore the effects of sea-level rise, tidal flooding and shoreline erosion in FloodZone: Photographs by Anastasia Samoylova and Waters Rising: A View from Our Backyard, both on view through May 29, 2022. From various sites in Hampton Roads and South Florida, these artists and researchers document, visualize and reflect upon the dire realities of our current climate crisis and its impact on communities along the U.S. East Coast, making palpable seemingly distant issues in our immediate environment and underscoring the urgent need for adaptation.
In FloodZone, the Chrysler Museum transports visitors to the vibrant yet vulnerable coastal region of Miami, Florida through Anastasia Samoylova's striking and stirring photographic account of everyday life in a threatened coastal ecosystem. Her works catalog the physical and psychological effects of sea-level rise and climate change along South Florida's receding shoreline, blurring the lines between paradise and catastrophe in a probing analysis of a climate in crisis.
Born in the Soviet Union, Samoylova moved to Miami Beach in 2016. After riding out Hurricane Irma in a mandatory evacuation zone—frozen traffic and depleted gas barring her escape—she wandered the deserted city to document the storm's damages. Describing the harrowing experience, she says, "Miami Beach, usually packed with tourists, was a zombie city. It felt apocalyptic. That's when I realized I had a project."
Samoylova uses her lens to explore the dissonant aspects of her sinking environment, where glistening high-rise condominiums tower over flooded streets, and real estate development continues unabated despite rising sea levels, persistent flooding and crumbling infrastructure. The resulting images consciously develop a visual inventory of daily experience at the water's edge, exposing the signs of unease, trepidation and decay that pepper the flooding landscape. Samoylova's poignant and vastly emotive photographs reverberate beyond Florida's shoreline, raising broad questions about our response to the inexorable and accelerating battle against rising seas.
"With an eye for subtlety and a conscientious attention to the everyday, Samoylova abandons the shock of climate disaster photography for a searching investigation into the cognitive dissonance of climate change—how people continue to live, often anxiously, amid rising waters," says Seth Feman, Ph.D., the Chrysler Museum's deputy director for art & interpretation and curator of photography.
Waters Rising is a collaborative project organized by both the Chrysler Museum of Art and Old Dominion University's (ODU) Institute for Coastal Adaptation and Resilience (ICAR). Yielding cutting-edge research on climate change, sea-level rise, green infrastructure and community resilience, ICAR leverages the disciplinary depth of ODU faculty to develop practical solutions to the unprecedented challenges facing coastal communities.
"Over the last decade, ODU experts have focused on issues of sea-level rise and flooding in the laboratory, the classroom and the community to address the challenges facing our region and other coastal regions across the country and the world," says John Broderick, Ph.D., president emeritus of Old Dominion University. "The University is invested heavily in communicating to the public the myriad emerging challenges surrounding resilience planning. In doing so, we're proud to continue the educational legacy started by Dr. Larry Atkinson more than a decade ago."
The research initiatives and creative projects undertaken by ICAR researchers are on view in the Chrysler Museum's Focus Gallery, submerging viewers in the experts' unparalleled efforts to reduce vulnerability and plan for the future. The exhibition presents scientific models, video simulations, photographs and artwork that provide insight into the causes and consequences of sea-level rise in coastal communities across Hampton Roads, bringing both immediacy and long-term perspective to the pressing issue.
"Like many institutions in Hampton Roads, the Chrysler Museum directly experiences the effects of sea-level rise on a regular basis," says Chrysler Museum Director Erik H. Neil, Ph.D. "Resiliency is the top concern as we plan for our future."

Parliament continued to control the East India Company by extending its charter for only twenty years at a time. Those granted in 1793, 1813, 1833 and 1853 successively whittled away the Company's commercial rights and trading monopolies.
Company rule in India effectively began in 1757 after the Battle of Plassey and lasted until 1858 when, following the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the Government of India Act 1858 led to the British Crown assuming direct control of India in the form of the new British Raj.
The Indian Rebellion was to be the end of the East India Company. In the wake of this bloody uprising, the British government effectively abolished the Company in 1858. All of its administrative and taxing powers, along with its possessions and armed forces, were taken over by the Crown.
Although it started as a monopolistic trading body, it became involved in politics and acted as an agent of British imperialism in India from the early 18th century to the mid-19th century. After being weakened for decades, it ceased to exist as a legal entity in 1873.

The East India Company's royal charter gave it the ability to "wage war," and initially it used military force to protect itself and fight rival traders. In 1757, however, it seized control of the entire Mughal state of Bengal.
Queen Elizabeth I of England grants a formal charter to the London merchants trading to the East Indies, hoping to break the Dutch monopoly of the spice trade in what is now Indonesia.
India's major exports included petroleum products, gems and jewelry, and drug formulations. Additionally, the value of the various types of machinery India exported was valued at over 29 billion U.S. dollars. Other major exports include spices, tea, coffee, tobacco in agriculture, along with iron and steel.

"But it'll be nonsense to say that there was an idea of India as a nation-state before the colonial period. … Burma, which was a part of the British Raj, was not seen as a part of India by our forefathers.

USA markets received a clear warning of coming recession on Friday when the spread between yields on three-month Treasury bills and 10-year notes fell below zero for the first time since 2007 after US manufacturing data missed estimates.
A pile of one dollar coins honoring former U.S. President Thomas Jefferson are seen at the unveiling by the U.S. Mint in Washington, August 15, 2007.
This particular indicator lies within the bond market, where investors show how confident they are about the economy by how much interest they're demanding from US government bonds.
The U.S. curve has inverted before each recession in the past 50 years. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which is used to set rates on mortgages and many other kinds of loans, fell to 2.45 percent from 2.54 percent late Thursday, a big move. Moves in the yield curve are clearly leading equities.
"Yield curves are responding to what they see, to what I believe is a global economic slowdown", said Peter Boockvar, chief investment officer at Bleakley Advisory Group, told CNBC. "While an inversion has [preceded] each recession over the past 50 years, the lead time is extremely inconsistent, with a recession following anywhere from 14-34 months after the curve goes upside down".
The pan-European STOXX 600 index lost 1.22 per cent and MSCI's gauge of stocks across the globe shed 1.48 per cent. High demand for bonds will, in turn, send yields falling.
Police confirmed the juvenile was a current Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School student, but did not release further details. The county medical examiner's office and detectives in the department are reportedly investigating the tragedy.
Just to illustrate how captivating the yield curve has been to the equity market, check out an intraday chart of S&P 500 futures versus the yield curve since very early this morning. In that situation, a 10-year note, for instance, may offer only a modestly higher yield than a 3-year note.
As Barron's reports, short-term bond yields reflect current economic strength, while "the long-term end of the yield curve - 10-year Treasuries and further out - is thought to indicate bond investors' long-term views of the market". The front-end to intermediate part of the curve inverted for the first time in a decade back in December.
While the 3-month to 10-year spread "has a relatively decent track record of predicting recessions, it suffers from a timing problem", said TD Securities U.S. rates strategist Gennadiy Goldberg.
The US Federal Reserve signaled on Wednesday that it would not raise interest rates this year, pointing out that the pace of economic activity has slowed. Inversion is considered a reliable harbinger of recession in the US, within roughly the next 18 months. Stephen Bartolini, a fixed-income manager at T. Rowe Price, says the real surprise was just how little growth the Fed sees next year.
Policymakers, in the Fed's statement, also forecast just one rate hike through 2021.

When I changed the board.id and post.topic.id to integer value , for exmaple 1 and 24, the web would render. I commented  and added {{ board.id }} {{ post.topic.id }} to see if there is an error with the query, turned out there is no problem, it would render 1, 24 on the webpage. Then I tried  It worked fine, but  still won't work.

Thanks for reading!

A: You have a loop in your template/HTML code. The reason it works for 1 and 24 is because this is the first iteration of the loop and your function get_last_post returns the latest post for a board with the id of 1. But when the for loop finds a board with an id of 3, no latest post exists and is returning None or empty. Which is why you are getting this error. The error is essentially saying, I can't find a URL with only a board_id=3 and an empty post_id.
You can confirm this by printing:
print(Post.objects.filter(topic__board_id=3).order_by('-created_at').first())

or by checking your database for any posts on a board with an id of 3.
You can resolve this by showing the link only if a board with a latest post exists like:
{% if post.topic.id %}

    By {{ post.created_by.username }} at {{ post.created_at }} id - {{ board.id }} {{ post.topic.id }}

{% endif %}

A:

Django can't understand board and post here.
try to send it through context along with the template during return render
try this:
return render(request, 'topic_posts.html', {'topic': topic, 'board': board, 'post': post})
