Elon Musk's rocket company SpaceX is expected to soar to a $24 billion valuation, which would make it the third-highest-valued private company in the United States, behind Uber and Airbnb. The new valuation comes courtesy of a $500 million funding round; SpaceX requires incredible amounts of money to finance its launches and to meet ambitions like city-to-city rocket travel, which SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell said this week would be doable "within a decade."

Facebook is having a negative impact on society, according to Mark Zuckerberg's former personal pollster, Tavis McGinn. After tracking the public's perception of CEO Zuckerberg and COO Sheryl Sandberg, McGinn left Facebook after six months to launch his own independent polling company, Honest Data. In a recent survey, McGinn found that Facebook is not well-regarded in many parts of the world; 32 percent of Americans — the equivalent of 54 million people — considered Facebook less of a societal ill than Marlboro cigarettes but worse than McDonald's fast food.

We're not quite done talking about Facebook. After two days of testimony before Congress, here's a list of all 43 things Zuckerberg said he and his team will follow up on. And on the latest episode of the Too Embarrassed to Ask podcast, Recode's Kurt Wagner and The Verge's Casey Newton offer a first-person recap of Zuckerberg's marathon testimony and talk about whether Facebook will be regulated.

WeWork is paying $400 million for Chinese co-working startup Naked Hub. It's WeWork's sixth acquisition in the past eight months. Most of the deals have been outside of WeWork's core business of renting out work space, from education tech to apps for construction workers. Check out Recode's ongoing list of WeWork's acquisitions. [Shirin Ghaffary / Recode]
We check our phones an average of 47 times a day — every 19 minutes of our waking lives — and spend roughly five hours total peering at their silvery glow. Does that count as addiction or obsession? A new Venice Beach-based startup called Boundless Mind, started by former Google employee Tristan Harris and early Facebook investor Roger McNamee, wants to break Silicon Valley's unique business model, which relies on keeping us in the thrall of our screens.

Are you trying to record a video from your screen but aren't that happy with its quality? Lots of people mistakenly believe that screen recording videos are a perfect replica of what they see on their screen – but that isn't actually the case.
As you're probably aware, the resolution of the video that you record will affect its definition and how crisp and clear it looks. However unlike conventional videos, for screen recording the video resolution is the size of the frame that is being recorded.
Simply put if you want to record at a higher resolution, you will have to capture a larger frame. Ideally you should capture at the maximum resolution (i.e. the resolution of your display) by maximizing the window that you're recording.
If possible you should increase the frame rate that you record in so that the video looks smoother. At a minimum you should record at 30 frames per second, though a frame rate of 60 will produce a far more fluid video that looks closer to what you see on your screen.
It should be noted that many built-in or basic screen recorders don't have the ability to adjust the frame rate of the recording, so you may need to use other screen recording software. For example you could try Movavi Screen Recorder Studio.
Many screen recording videos include audio captured via a microphone. If yours does, its audio quality will play a part in the overall quality of your video.
While improving the microphone audio isn't easy, you should take what steps you can. Try to record with a good microphone, in a quiet location, and while minimizing as much background noise as possible.
Recording high quality videos will require quite a bit of processing power and RAM – so you should close unnecessary apps and background processes to free up as much as possible. That should help to avoid any performance issues from affecting the recording while it is ongoing.
Try to disable any other potential tasks that could interfere with the recording as well or take up system resources. For example you should make sure that you don't have a virus scan or update scheduled.
By using the tips listed above, you should be able to improve the quality of your screen recording videos by leaps and bounds. As you can see there is a lot more involved in the video quality than most people realize, and it is important that you set it up to record the best quality possible.
Just remember to encode the video in the right settings after you're done recording – so that it doesn't adversely affect the quality and cause any issues with the video.

Local state representative reflects on death of Longmeadow teen
State Representative Brian Ashe, who lives in Longmeadow, reflected on the loss Monday as a local leader and a father.
By Chris Pisano, Ryan Trowbridge and Photojournalist: Don Henry
Updated: May. 9, 2022 at 11:00 PM EDT
LONGMEADOW, MA (WGGB/WSHM) - There's an update on the deadly crash from Longmeadow that killed a high school student over the weekend. State Representative Brian Ashe, who lives in Longmeadow, reflected on the loss Monday as a local leader and a father.
"Just as a representative here, it's horrible hearing about any tragedy, but being a parent...it even hits you more so," Ashe said.
Flowers now mark the spot where police responded early Saturday morning to a single vehicle accident. Investigators said they located a male juvenile, who they suspect was the driver, with minor injuries. Two additional passengers were located in the car. One was transported to Baystate Medical Center for life-threatening injuries. The other, Longmeadow High School senior Katarina Boskovic, was declared deceased at the scene.
"My son and daughter graduated a few years ago from high school and just remembering back what a good time it's supposed to be when you're getting ready to graduate and this girl to lose her life., it's heartbreaking, it really is," Ashe added.
While no charges have been filed in the crash, the Hampden District Attorney's Office said "charges relating to motor vehicle homicide and operating under the influence will be charged appropriately."
Ashe hopes, if nothing else, someone may learn from this.
"Sadly, you hope something positive, like maybe this will save someone else's life. That maybe by them seeing that how real this is and how it's impacted so many lives this one decision and I know when you're 17, 18, 19 years old, you're not always thinking of consequences, but every decision you make has a consequence and this one obviously had a deadly consequence and you can't take it back," Ashe explained.
Resources and support for students and staff will continue to be offered at Longmeadow High School this week.

Doctor Who: The Juggernauts review
The Juggernauts starts in the middle of the action: the Doctor and Mel are trying to escape from a medical ship that is being shot out of space by enemies unknown. Mel bolts for an escape pod; the Doctor disappears back into the explosions in search of the TARDIS.
We next hear of Mel several months later; she landed on Lethe and joined the scientific team working on a secret project. They hope that a functioning fleet of Juggernaut robots could take over dangerous mining work and save human lives.
The Doctor, on the other hand, wakes up in a cavern. (In a nice nod to audio continuity, he also wakes up calling for Evelyn.) It's dark, it's dank, "and, of course, I appear to be restrained". He has been recruited by quite a different team – the Daleks, who intend to use him to stop the Juggernaut project.
Because Juggernauts are not what they seem. Once upon a time, they were called Mechonoids. And once upon a time, someone on that scientific team was called Davros…
Recorded and released in that period when new Who was establishing itself on TV and Big Finish had to establish its credentials for only the classic series, The Juggernauts stretches all the way back to a First Doctor adventure for its foundation. It's a wasted effort; although the term "Mechonoids" is thrown around occasionally, the casual listener will find almost no other connection to 1965's The Chase. Big Finish might as well have created a completely new concept and be done with it.
They should have done so, because The Juggernauts is a good standalone story, the plot working well for long-time fans and new series fans alike. Secret villains and scientific hubris will never get old; they're as satisfying a guilty pleasure as donuts and coffee.
People who also listen to the Scarifyers series will get a little bit of a bonus – they'll recognise Terry Molloy's voice without the Davros filters. That advantage won't spoil things; instead, it gives a lovely frisson to know where the bad guy is lurking before the hints start being dropped.
It's unfortunate that The Juggernauts has probably been passed up by many potential listeners because neither the Sixth Doctor nor Mel were particularly popular on TV and the Mechonoids are such an old concept. Big Finish has done much to redress the bad storytelling and worse costumes of the 80s, and passing references to antique villains are a small price to pay for an audio that tells a timeless Doctor Who adventure.
The Juggernauts (by Scott Alan Woodard; starring Colin Baker, Bonnie Langford) was released by Big Finish Productions in February 2005.

Although we are a small congregation we believe the Lord can still use us and we pray for more Christians to come and join us. We hope we are a friendly church who make visiting preachers and anyone who comes to church welcome.
This has been a busy and exciting year for us with the Together Mission, which we hope will bear fruit as it caused quite a lot of interest in the community. We don't believe in continual fund raising believing the Lord will provide, but we do realise we have to pull our weight. We run soup & pudding lunches which are very popular and also have stalls at Kielder castle when they have a fair on.
We believe in the power of prayer and the Bible and have a fortnightly Bible discussion group which is ecumenical.
We run an after school club at Kielder School and usually get 100% attendance.
We share the special services, (harvest, Christmas etc.) with the Anglican Church taking turns at holding the services. We can get up to 50 people for these services. We also do various other things throughout the year. We sing carols in Kielder castle courtyard and at the Calvert Trust. We run songs of praise on the ferry sometimes in the park. We will cater for church visits if required. In fact if we think it's a good idea or will help the Lords work we'll have a try at anything.
We meet on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month at Falstone Church at 10:30am and on the 3rd Sunday at 2:30pm as Kielder with Falstone House Group at Alan and Brenda Ormeshers Home, (Spring Cottage, Stannersburn, Hexham. NE48 1DD).

Parmesan crisps add an elegance to any dish including salads, burgers or soup but don't require a ton of effort. Just pour, cook and cool. You can even eat them as a snack like my wife does. How I lived without these crispy delights is beyond me.
There really aren't any rules to how you pile up your grated cheese but if you want them to be perfectly round then use a cookie cutter to keep them circular as you pour. If you are looking for a more artistic randomness then just pour and let the cheese fall as it does. You really can't mess up this recipe.
Cook the parmesan at 350 degrees for ten minutes or so till they are golden brown all over. These crisps need a little more time in the oven as they are still a little white in the middle. Once they are golden brown, place them on a paper towel to soak up excess oil and cool for ten minutes. Generally, the first batch never last the ten minutes in my household but it's worth a try.
Adding a parmesan crisp or two to a Caeser Salad takes it to the next level. Try floating a crisp in the middle of tomato soup and it isn't so boring anymore. You can even layer a crisp on a burger instead of melted cheese. The possibilities are endless so start cooking up some parmesan crisps today.
Pour parmesan or other hard cheese onto cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Use a cookie cutter to confine the pour if you want perfectly round crisps.
Cook the cheese at 350 degrees for ten minutes or so till the cheese is golden brown from end to end.
Cool the crisps for ten minutes on paper tools to absorb the oil and crisp up more.

Anatomy and Physiology B/C: Understand the anatomy and physiology of the human body systems: cardiovascular, lymphatic and excretory.
Thanks for the clarification! I was startled when I saw that..
Is Anatomy a permanent event(one that does not rotate)?
Yes, but the topics will switch every year.
Plus, do you know Unome?
Does anyone know when the handouts on soinc.org will be out?
Which handout are you referring to?
huppada wrote: Does anyone know when the handouts on soinc.org will be out?
If you're referring to the training handouts, I'm not sure when those are released, but there's already a handout for the cardiovascular system from 2015.
I am Pretty Sure It is permanent event as all the science Olympiad years it still has been the same but the topics inside it does change like this year its the lymphatic, excretory and vascular system. But last year it was way different!
I am new to Science Olympiad and the forums, so I don't really know how this works.
I have just gotten selected for Anatomy and Physiology B.
I am a bit confused on where to start, since there is so much information I need to cover.
Where should I be starting? What should I start working on first?
Also, how should I organize the information on the cheat paper? What is the most important information in general that should be included?
If you haven't yet, I'd suggest looking at the rulebook. It has all the topics that the test is supposed to cover. For information, a good place to start is the training handout for each of the systems. The training handouts for this year aren't out yet, but the old ones I believe are on soinc.org.
In regards to the cheat sheet, I make sure that there's a mixture of both pictures and words. Approximately 3/4 of one side of my notesheet will have pictures, the rest will be words. Like making any other notesheet, you want to have the smallest font you can possibly read, with almost nonexistent margins. Put down any information that you're bound to not remember. The cheat sheet is NOT a place that you can simply put anything and everything; for competitions, especially higher level competitions, you'll be pressed for time completing the exam, and it would be beneficial to know a lot of information of the top of your head instead of searching around the notesheet and finding the information.
I learned a lot of what I'm doing from this year from experience last year. I recommend that you look over some tests to see what you need to know for the event.

Photo by: U.S. Department of Defense Guantanamo Bay: Dealing with the Enemy in an Age of Terror
Despite a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that enemy combatants held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba are entitled to due process and a recent federal court order that requires the U.S. government to give detainees an opportunity to challenge their imprisonment, those held in Cuba are likely to face a long legal battle before their fate is resolved. Civil rights advocates, who have uncovered new evidence of abuse at Guantanamo, argue that detainees continue to be deprived of basic human rights. But the Justice Department defends their practices as necessary and appropriate to the war on terror.
Richard A. Samp is chief counsel of the Washington Legal Foundation, where he coordinates the Foundation's litigation activity. He wrote the foundation's amicus curiae brief in the 2004 Supreme Court case on the Guantanamo prisoners, supporting the government's position. Samp clerked for federal Judge Robert E. DeMascio of Detroit in the early 1980s.
Thomas Wilner is the managing partner of the International Trade and Global Relations Practice at Shearman & Sterling, LLP. He represents eleven Kuwaitis detained at Guantanamo Bay, and was counsel in Al Odah v. United States which was heard in the Supreme Court in 2004.

DNSchanger is not something new and was quite active years ago, we occasionally encountered one every once in a while, but given the impact they have, we normally don't bother to write any article.
With that being said, we have been keeping an eye on a particle one for a while, this one has been active for a long time, and Radware has also blogged about it recently. Starting from September 20, 2018, we noticed the campaign starting to ramp up its' effort significantly with a whole bunch of new scanners, we think it is time to expose more details and take some needed actions.
Just like the regular dnschanger, this campaign attempts to guess the password on the router's web authentication page or bypass the authentication through the dnscfg.cgi exploit, then changes the router's default DNS address to the Rogue DNS Server through the corresponding DNS configuration interface.
But this campaign has more, we have found three related DNSChanger programs, which we call Shell DNSChanger, Js DNSChanger and PyPhp DNSChanger according to their programming languages.
Furthermore, the above DNSChanger Systems are only part of a larger system that the malware campaign runs. The whole campaign also includes: Phishing Web System, Web Admin System, Rogue DNS System. These four parts work together to perform DNS hijacking function. Here we call the whole campaign GhostDNS.
Currently the campaign mainly focuses on Brazil, we have counted over 100 infected router IP addresses (87.8% located in Brazil), and 70+ router/firmware have been involved, and 50+ domain names such as some big banks in Brazil , even Netflix, Citibank.br have been hijacked to steal the corresponding website login credentials.
The GhostDNS system consists of four parts: DNSChanger module, Phishing Web module, Web Admin module, Rogue DNS module. Among them, the DNSChanger module is responsible for information collection and exploitation.
The DNSChanger module is the main module of GhostDNS. The attacker uses three DNSChanger sub-modules to carry out attack against routers on both internet and intranet networks. The module includes 100+ attack scripts altogether, affecting 70+ different routers.
The Shell DNSChanger was first available around June 2016. It is basically a combination of 25 attack Shell scripts, which works on 21 routers/firmware.
This sub-module is only being used lightly, with limited deployment by the attacker.
This sub-module uses a third-party program, Fast HTTP Auth Scanner v0.6 (FScan) to perform scan. It's configured with a large number of scanning rules, a list of user passwords, and some startup scripts. The Fscan scan IP range is a list of selected network segments, most of which are attributed to Brazil.
After the initial scan, this sub-module then uses the router device information collected to perform password crack on the web authentication pages of these routers. If it is success, the default DNS address on the router will be changed to a Rogue DNS server.
For example, a Js DNSChanger code on the home page of 35.236.25.247 (the title of the website is: Convertidor Youtube Mp3 | Mp3 youtube).
The attacker uses the Image() function to perform port scan on a list of predefined intranet IP addresses commonly used by routers. If the port is detected to be open, the corresponding intranet IP will be passed along to the payload generator.
The payload generator generates Base64 encoded payload based on the router IP and Rogue DNS IP. The payload includes the attacker program, and is run in the form of Data URI Scheme.
The attacker program in the payload constructs http requests via jQuery.ajax. These requests perform password guessing on the web authentication page of these routers, and then changes the default DNS address of the router to the Rogue DNS Server through the corresponding DNS configuration interface.
Web API. Through which attacker can control and schedule to run the program conveniently.
Scanner. The scanner utilizes both Masscan port scanning and Shodan API service (to pick specific banners) to obtain target router IPs located only in Brazil. It is interesting that the Shodan API Key here is also being used by another education and research project on Github. We suspect that this Shodan API key is leaked and abused by attacker.
Attack Module. The attack module totally includes 69 attack scripts against 47 different routers/firmwares. It collects active router IPs from scanner and launchs Web authentication bruteforce or dnscfg.cgi vulnerability exploits to bypass authentication, after that it will change the routers' default DNS resolver to the rogue DNS server, which is used to hijack specific websites for phishing.
We also have discovered a web admin website on one of the PyPhp DNSChanger node. We do not have too much information about this system yet, but we strongly believe that it is an admin system.
We notice a special label "Elite Priv8" on the login page of the Web Admin System. After some googling, we found the same description on a post titled "testador santander banking 2.1 versão beta elitepriv8" on a Brazilian security forum.
We have no access to the Rouge DNS server, so we can't say for sure how many dns names have been hijacked, but by querying both Alexa Top1M and our DNSMon's Top1M domains against the rouge DNS server (139.60.162.188) , we were able to find a total of 52 domains being hijacked. The hijacked domains mainly involve bank, cloud hosting service as well as a security company named Avira.
The rouge DNS server hijacks specific domains and resolves their IP addresses to the Phishing webserver, which will respond the victims with specific phishing sites for the corresponding hostname.
Based on the logs of GhostDNS from 09-21 to 09-27, we have observed 100k+ infected router IP addresses (87.8% located in Brazil), involving 70+ router/firmwares. Due to the dynamic updates of router IP address, the actual number of infected devices should be slightly different.
The GhostDNS system poses a real threat to Internet. It is highly scaled, utilizes diverse attack vector, adopts automated attack process.
We recommend the broadband users in Brazil to update their router systems, check if the router's default DNS server is changed and set more complicated password for router web portal.
We also recommend the router vendors to increase the complexity of router default password and enhance the system security update mechanism for their products.

Panasonic 26LXD70 review
A good all-rounder that looks the part too
By tech.co.uk staff 2007-07-11T23:00:00.191Z Plasma and LCD TVs
The TX-26LXD70 owes its compact design to the speakers placed below the screen
Great specs and a compact design make this a good choice
Clear images
Audio could be better
The TX-26LXD70 owes its compact design to the speakers placed below the screen and Panasonic's sleek Viera styling make it very easy on the eye.
Setup is a fuss-free affair, since the sockets are easily accessible, and there's a single power button clearly positioned on top of the set.
Connections are pretty much as you'd expect at this price point and include a brace of HDMI inputs, a pair of Scarts, S-video, component and composite video options and a PC input.
The set boasts an impressive claimed contrast ratio of 8500:1, and also features the maker's V-Real 2 image processing technology, promising some fantastic quality images. The spec sheet claims the set also has a wide viewing angle of 178 degrees and this looks pretty much spot on.
The onscreen menus are well designed and exceptionally easy to use, and also include Panasonic's handy Viera Link, which lets you control a host of AV components connected to the TV, such as DVD players and set-top boxes, a single controller and the onscreen menu. The remote itself has a clear and well labelled button layout and feels just weighty enough to hold and operate comfortably.
No doubt thanks to that V-Real 2 processor, the pictures are very good. Colour reproduction is vibrant and warm, with natural looking skin tones, which only turn an unnatural tone of orange when the colour balance is switched to 'warm'.
There is also a marked improvement with motion; images have far cleaner edges and only a tiny amount of blurring occurs on very fast moving images. The fight sequence from Batman Begins is far clearer and easier to follow.
The black levels are also superior, with far more detail visible in particularly dark scenes.
Pictures from standard-def DVDs are also excellent. The opening scene of Casino Royale looks almost as textured as it did at the cinema, and the fast-paced action sequences look vibrant with only minimal blurring on faster moving images.
As far as the sonics go, we could have hoped for a tad meatier sound, but that said, the sleek 26LXD70 definitely does the business.

Bernie Stays In: Why That's Good
Bernard Sanders. YouTube
Despite the devastating results from last night's primaries, Bernie Sanders is holding on. Sanders declared his intention to stay in the race this afternoon in a press conference in Vermont. He will remain a candidate until after the next debate, scheduled for Sunday night at 8:00 pm EDT (CNN), and possibly longer.
Sanders, according to Nate Silver's projections, has virtually no chance of reaching the 1,991 delegates needed to secure the nomination. He would need a miracle to get back into contention. That's why Sunday's debate sets up to be his Hail Mary moment.
It's unlikely that Sanders has the moxie to force Biden into a corner during the debate. Both men are old, both have suffered debilitating health events. Both are certainly exhausted by nonstop campaigning. That said, this is Bernie's best and last chance to hit his opponent relentlessly until Biden folds. Or spews some bit of nonsense so damning that even the sand-submerged ostrich heads that make up his base pop up and take notice of their candidate's worsening dementia.
We're talking about a Howard Dean squeal, a Dukakis tank ride moment. It has to be epically bad, like Biden's dentures falling out of his mouth, or saying the n-word on national television.
I'm afraid if you leave it blank there might be room for fraud. Might want to write in Bernie instead to be safe.
— 80S1X 💙 (@80S1X) March 11, 2020
Lets put the chances of such a moment occurring at 5%. It's not much, but it's not nothing. If anyone has proven to be a PR train wreck, it's Biden. And that held true long before daily displays of fogginess. A Joe-plosion is Bernie's only hope.
But will Sanders press Biden into a mistake? Unlikely, says a reporter who spent weeks with the campaign:
Meanwhile, a small group of senior aides had been pushing Sanders for months to go harder on Biden.
The problem: Sanders actually likes him. Personally, they got along better than he ever did with Hillary Clinton, aides have said. (The former vice president falls into an exclusive category for the Vermont senator: the people who were nice to Sanders before he mattered, as two aides put it recently.) Back in January, it was the candidate's decision to personally apologize to Biden after one of his surrogates, Zephyr Teachout, wrote an op-ed about Biden's "corruption problem."
The Effect of Sanders Sticking Around
For Sanders to show some grit is important. If he folded the moment a win looked virtually impossible and went out with a whimper–some of his supporters would turn on him, and not the DNC/Biden machine.
All Americans should be disturbed by the DNC's shameless meddling in the selection of the party's candidate. Sure, it's "their" party, but the candidate should be decided by the people who comprise the party, not its unelected bureaucrats.
Bernie voters angry with the DNC are more likely to write Bernie in as a candidate (indeed, #WriteInBernie is trending on Twitter today, as is #DemExit2020). Or they'll stay home. And although it's a small number, some will turn to Trump.
Sanders followers have gained unique insight into the dishonest media. They know what it looks like to have reporters fawn over their candidate's rivals while ignoring his wins.
The longer this gets dragged out, perhaps more Berniebros will begin to admit to themselves that they have more in common with Trump than with Biden, the DNC's tired, corrupt marionette.

Q: Is there a way to use Bosh to handle an app deployed on a local cluster without an IaaS? I have a cluster of local machines, and I would like to deploy a web app on it using Bosh. However, the Bosh documentation appears to show a lack of options if you do not use a popular IaaS.
Is there a way around this?

A: The "Install Bosh" section of the Bosh Docs (you're looking at the Cloud Foundry docs) has a more complete list of supported IaaS technologies (each IaaS technology has its own CPI, which is the specific code for interacting with that IaaS).
You mentioned deploying to a "cluster of local machines".  I don't know what that is exactly, but if you're looking to deploy to bare metal you're probably looking for the RackHD CPI.
Hope that helps!

A: BOSH requires additional package called CPI in order to run on different platforms. You can check Github for available third-party CPIs.

Otto Ludwig Preminger, född 5 december 1905 i Wiznitz i Österrike-Ungern (Vyzhnytsia i nuvarande Ukraina), död 23 april 1986 i New York i delstaten New York, var en amerikansk filmregissör, filmproducent och skådespelare. Preminger var en mångsidig filmregissör som regisserade komedier, kriminalfilmer och västernfilmer.

Biografi
Otto Preminger var son till Josefa Preminger, född Fraenkel, och Markus Preminger, riksåklagare i kejsardömet Österrike-Ungern. Otto och hans bror Ingo följde båda i faderns fotspår och studerade juridik. Så småningom anställdes Otto Preminger som direktör för Kaiser-Jubiläums-Theater – senare Volksoper i Wien. 1932 svarade han för regin av teaterstycket Sinnenas hus (Das Haus der Temperamente). 1933-1935 hade han tjänsten som direktör för Theater in der Josefstadt. År 1935 lämnade han, sannolikt på grund av sin judiska härkomst, Österrike och emigrerade till USA.

I USA
I USA kom Otto Preminger att till en början medverka i ett antal teaterstycken och filmer som skådespelare. I filmerna spelade han i några fall på grund av sin tyska brytning tyska officerare (nazister). I slutet av andra världskriget övergick han mera till regi och produktion av filmer. Han gjorde filmer baserade på populära romaner och teateruppsättningar. Ofta kom han att ta upp tabubelagda ämnen som drogproblem, våldtäkt och homosexualitet. Under 1950-talet engagerade Preminger Saul Bass för att skapa vinjetter och filmaffischer, bland annat för Analys av ett mord (1959).

Otto Preminger avled 1986 av cancer och Alzheimers sjukdom.

25 plants for attracting native bees to the garden
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Honeybees get all the attention, but they aren't the only bees pollinating our gardens. In Oregon, over 500 native bees are out doing their part, too
As National Pollinator Week nears June 18 to 24, it's time to bring them into the limelight. Many are beautiful – like the metallic sweat bee with emerald green head and thorax or the cute ball of fluff called a digger bee. They're also docile, leaving people alone as they move from plant to plant gathering and depositing pollen.
Without insect pollinators cucumbers, apples and berries – along with thousands of other plants – wouldn't bear fruit or vegetables. That makes conservation vital, said Gail Langellotto, entomologist and horticulturist for Oregon State University Extension Service. To help make this happen she is surveying bee species from 24 Portland-area gardens, all tended by a cadre of OSU Extension master gardeners.
For this Garden Ecology Lab research project, Langellotto visits the gardens monthly to collect bees. They are then sent to experts at the American Museum of Natural History in New York for identification. The information collected enhances the Oregon Bee Atlas, a volunteer program charged with surveying the whole state.
"We want to generate a species list from Oregon gardens," she said. "Other states have them, but we don't know what native bees appear in Oregon. If we know which bees we have, we can determine their health and how we might help them."
The Oregon Bee Atlas is one of several projects undertaken by the Oregon Bee Project, a collaboration of OSU Extension, the Oregon Department of Agriculture and the Oregon Department of Forestry. The project was undertaken by mandate of the Oregon Legislature after 50,000 bumble bees were killed five years ago when blooming linden trees in a parking lot were sprayed with pesticide.
"The Oregon Bee Project is about putting tools in people's hands to literally build and care for native bee pollinator habitat, and gardeners are really at the forefront of that effort," said Andony Melathopoulos, OSU Extension bee specialist and leader of OSU's participation in the project.
On the Oregon State campus in Corvallis, Al Shay, a horticulture instructor at OSU, has led a campaign to show how to be kind to bees. He and his students build pollinator houses and plant accompanying gardens. They've installed them, not only on campus, but around town at the Corvallis Fire Department downtown, the Methodist Church and Sunset Park.
Shay hopes to have 20 more pollinator houses placed in public locations by next year, some accompanied by gardens.
"As we become more urbanized, it makes sense to provide habitat for pollinators," he said. "We're trying to get the word out and tell people to do the same things in their own backyards."
Langellotto agrees. Part of her research is looking at volunteer gardens and noting what conditions pollinators thrive in. They use mapping and geographic information systems (GIS) to see what's adjacent to the gardens – highways, forests, waterways, shopping centers, farms or any other land use that may be nearby.
"We expect gardens can be a fantastic habitat for bees," she said. "Gardens can be incredible for conservation in general. If we're able to identify garden features that help conserve bees we will communicate that and hopefully get gardeners to do some of these things."
Plant selection is the biggie, she said. One tiny garden in her study is right up against Interstate 5 but had the second most number of bees of the 24 they surveyed. And most likely it will rank first or second in diversity.
"It suggests that intentional plant choices make a difference," Langellotto said. "If you plant it, they will come."
Native plants play a large role, but there are many exotics that do just as well. Look for single flowers with flat faces; fluffy double flowers deter bees. Choose a diversity of plants and have some that bloom at different times of the year – some plants like Oregon grape even bloom in winter.
Plant in swaths. Planting something is better than nothing, but you'll notice that a single plant rarely has pollinators visiting.
"Bees are economical," Melathopoulos said. "They want to go to a big box store. No mom-and-pop stores for them."
One of the most important things gardeners can put into practice is limiting use of pesticides (check with your local Extension office or Master Gardeners to determine what is wrong with your plants before treating).
Native bees are solitary and live in ground nests, so leave a little bare ground for them.
"Bees are crucial to the food we eat," Langellotto said. "They help maintain the plants we love. Something as simple as planting a sustainable garden can help with conservation."

ALC Welcomes New Tamil Language Instructor
In the midst of the Google Translate era, incoming U-M Tamil instructor Vidya Mohan teaches one of the world's oldest classical languages.
In the midst of the Google Translate era, incoming U-M Tamil instructor Vidya Mohan teaches one of the world's oldest classical languages. Ancient as the language's origins may be, Mohan approaches Tamil from a very modern angle.
"Incorporating platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram helps make Tamil accessible," Mohan said of her teaching strategies. "I see it as something that can be comfortable for everyone, even though it's an ancient language with a wealth of literature."
Spoken by more than one million people in the US alone, Tamil is recognized as an official language in India, Sri Lanka, and Singapore. At over 4,500 years old, its history can be divided into three sangam [periods]—old, middle, and new, with most of the major texts originating from the 'new' period.
In the fall, Mohan will join the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures to become U-M's first Tamil instructor in twelve years, positioning the University among just eight American colleges with Tamil programs. With her, Mohan brings almost a decade of experience teaching Tamil at the university level, as well as a background in primary and secondary schools.
Originally poised to enter the legal field, Mohan began teaching in 1999, several years after arriving to the US from Tamil Nadu. She began as a classroom aide, eventually ascending to a full teaching position.
"I grew up speaking Tamil, but my passion for ancient literature drove me to explore it more deeply. Today, I view social media as a great launching pad for students to explore that literature. Often, students see a reference online and become interested in the history behind it."
In Mohan's experience, Tamil courses are comprised of both heritage and non-heritage speakers. This mixture of students keeps the classroom environment fun and dynamic.
"People are interested for all sorts of reasons," she said. "Some people see it just as a brand-new language to learn. Maybe their significant other is from Tamil Nadu or speaks Tamil. I've had a lot of students who use Tamil as a way to return to their roots, as well."
The state of Michigan has a particularly high population of native and heritage Tamil speakers. Mohan knows at least four Tamil schools in the Detroit area alone, and has herself co-founded a Tamil language Sunday school in Lansing with her colleague, Suseela Umakanth.
"We've been running the school for 17 years. We teach children of 3-4 years of age, all the way up to high schoolers," Mohan said.
"To preserve this language and pass it onto the next generation…that's my passion. To me, that's what teaching is, but it feels especially important in the Tamil context."
After all, the Tamil of today is continuous with grammatical rules dating back more than 2,000 years. This is where Tamil diverges from other languages—Shakespearean English, for example, is pretty inconsistent with most modern English dialects.
"Tamil teaches people to focus on the details, letter by letter. It's a language of suffixes—I've seen up to 14 suffixes added to a word. Learning Tamil is a great mental exercise, because just adding a suffix can change all sorts of things, like the tense and gender of a word," she explained.
Mohan also teaches her students about regional food and dance. She believes exposure to cultural elements facilitates a deeper appreciation and understanding of language.
"I just want people to be proud of their language and culture—to have pride in who they are without wanting to hide it. You can melt into the melting pot, but you should still keep your own flavor."

Q: Inno Setup - Preserve a single existing file, but install all other in a directory tree I have a application in beta testing phase. It has application files, and a database (.db) file, which I would like to keep and not replace.
Lets assume I provided a version 1.0 to my clients, and they installed it. Now I have version 1.1 that has some changes in the application files, but not in the db.
How can I instruct Inno Setup to preserve that one file, and for the rest of them just replace?
[Files]
Source: "D:\nw\testfile.db"; DestDir: "{app}"; Flags: uninsneveruninstall   onlyifdoesntexist
Source: "D:\nw\*"; Excludes: "\node_modules\"; DestDir: "{app}"; Flags:  recursesubdirs createallsubdirs;

With this script file, the testfile.db is always overwritten with the new version.
My goal is to preserve the testfile.db during the new installation.

2016-06-06 13:36:21.630   -- File entry --

Thank you

A: The problem is that while the file is probably not installed by the first entry D:\nw\testfile.db, it is installed by the second wildcard entry D:\nw\*.
You have to add onlyifdoesntexist even to the wildcard entry. Or if you need to overwrite all the other files, even if they exist, explicitly exclude the testfile.db file from the wildcard entry:
Source: "D:\nw\testfile.db"; DestDir: "{app}"; Flags: uninsneveruninstall onlyifdoesntexist

Each Civilian TAC•PAK™ "Briefcase Command Center" is custom engineered to meet your field operational needs. It operates as a multi-user self-contained remote incident command and communications system. Due to its small size and portability, you can take our entire emergency operations to the top of a building, the middle of a lake, or through streets blocked with tornado or hurricane debris, ice, etc. From there, numerous personnel may establish data and operations communications worldwide.
Please note, the TAC•PAK™ is easily configurable to meet your specific agency needs and ruggedization requirements. For example, we wireless networked 12 together for the Florida Department of Emergency Services, installed backpacking straps for transport via dirt bike for the CARE organization, and installed satellite videoconferencing for the US Army Corps of Engineers deployed in Israel, Bosnia and Afghanistan. We would be happy to work with you and develop a customized configuration utilizing the experiences of past clients in similar situations.
As another example, we can link local VHF/UHF/800Mhz radios together, and also enable them to connect worldwide. With this Option, a Katrina deployed SINCGARS based team could speak locally with the Jefferson Parrish 800Mhz Sheriff department, and simultaneously with a VHF FEMA Team deploying from Washington DC. The TAC-PAK Radio Interop user could also easily expand the network on-site with ANY new radios, even Walmart purchased FRS radios. This Option also enables the TAC-PAK laptop to become a radio interfaced device, and we also have apps for Blackberry and iPhone devices.
The TAC•PAK™ "Briefcase Command Center" concept enables government and commercial agencies to deploy a full command/communications capability to any site, including those not accessible via traditional vehicles such as the third floor of a building or a debris blocked street. A brief summary of representative TAC•PAK™ user applications can be found to the right.
To custom design a TAC•PAK™ that meets your needs, please view our Civilian TAC•PAK™ Configurator page.

Your notification of acceptance, followed by your deferral, secures you a spot in the Full-Time MBA class for the following year.


Following the Dec. 14 massacre that left 20 students and six teachers dead, the Newtown Board of Education wants to put armed guards in schools.
The board voted Thursday to ask the town to allocate more money for full-time uniformed resource officers in the town's four elementary schools, NBC Connecticut reported Friday.
"After what happened in our community, i just think we should go over and above and provide a shining example for the rest of the world and protect our kids," Newtown resident Donna Lorenz told NBC Connecticut.
The proposed resource officers would be Newtown cops.
The board's suggestion mirrors the National Rifle's Association's plan for keeping schools safe in the wake of the Newtown massacre.
NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre said in December "the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun" and pushed Congress to put armed guards in every school.

Meadows: Tax cuts don't have to be fully offset
By Rebecca Savransky - 03/26/17 09:57 AM EDT
.@RepMarkMeadows to @GStephanopoulos on whether tax cuts have to be "fully offset" so as to be revenue-neutral: "My personal response is no" pic.twitter.com/dX3cqR31r6
— This Week (@ThisWeekABC) March 26, 2017
Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) on Sunday said he doesn't think tax cuts have to be "fully offset" so as to be revenue-neutral.
"Does it have to be what they would say revenue-neutral, or do you have to have an offset, like with the border-adjustment tax — I think those are going to be the two questions," Meadows said during an interview on ABC's "This Week."
"I think there's been a lot of flexibility in terms of some of my contacts and conservatives in terms of not making it totally offset."
Meadows said that's a move meant to "provide real relief and economic growth."
"When we start to grow the economy at 4, 4.1 percent, it actually not only increases wages but it puts more money in Americans pockets each and every day," he said.
"And so tax reform and lowering taxes will create and generate more income, and so we're looking at those, where the fine balance is. But does it have to be fully offset? My personal response is no."
President Trump has signaled he wants tax reform to be the new priority after his first legislative defeat last week on healthcare.

Why Do Milennials Not Believe in God?
Millennials, Why Are We The Generation Who Stopped Believing In God?
Over 25% of Millennials don't believe in God, but that's not something to brag about.
Millennials have a reputation for "ending" many things that previous generations have adored. Some things are simple such as landlines. Some things are good such as cigarette smoking. But recently, a social trend has sparked with research to prove it, Millennials more than any other generation does not believe in God.
I will be honest, I did not have what I would call a relationship with God prior to college. I grew up in the church but never understood what that meant. I knew about the Bible and I knew prayer was good, sin was bad but I didn't fully understand what it meant to believe in God. My friends in high school were either super religious or atheist, I was the only in-between. While we were all respectful and civil with each other's opinions on the topic of religion, I stood soundly in the middle and didn't know which way to lean.
I was comfortable with my middle ground and satisfied with knowing who God was, believing he existed and calling it a day. I didn't need to dig deeper. In fact, attending a Christian university made me a bit nervous. I imagined a classroom filled with people using God as an excuse or an answer for all of the problems of our world. I classified myself as someone who thought with their brain and considered my heart, so the idea of a conversation leading down the path of pure belief over facts made me roll my eyes. That wasn't my experience at all.
Throughout my time at my Christian university, I have experienced people who are truly an image of God and it changed how I view my relationship with Him. People who did not fit this stereotype we all have a bad taste in our mouth about, people who truly lived their life through God. I didn't know it was possible for that to become me until I let the Lord into my life.
As I have become settled in my current relationship with God, it's a healthier one than the one I was once comfortable with. It is not easy to love the Lord. It takes time, it takes patience and it takes trust. These three things are the three things all millennial, including myself, seem to lack the most.
We never have enough time. We are working two jobs to pay off our college loans. We do our homework while we're in class so we can enjoy our evenings. We are constantly seeking for time to eat, breathe or truly be present in our own lives without something calling at us in the back of our head.
We lack patience. We grew up with information at our fingertips. We have a question, we don't even have to type it. We call out "Alexa" or "Hey Siri" and the answer is given to us before we can blink.
We forgot how to trust. We've watched friends betray us. We experienced our families separating. We work hard for something we want more than anything else, but more than enough, it doesn't work out. We want control of our own lives, why would we believe that anybody else would have our best interests?
So, we lose our faith. Because it's something else to do. It's something else for us to think about. We want to choose which path we walk on without arrows or a map to tell us where to go. We lose our faith because it's hard to love and it's easy to surrender.
But when we lose our faith, do we lose a piece of ourselves too?
I have made the choice to love as the Lord has taught me to. I will love all people, no matter who you are, no matter what your past is and no matter what you believe. I will never tell someone they are wrong for not understanding faith because, at one time, I didn't either.
As a member of the generation who continues to lose their faith, I am saddened to imagine a world without religion.
So, Lord, I pray for my generation. I pray you to help us find peace in our hearts, the time during our day, the patience in our soul and trust in our relationships. Most importantly, I pray nobody ever lives in a world where faith is obsolete and forgotten.

Q: margin-top doesn't move unless value is high Probably a very simple fix to this one, been looking at it for a little bit now and cant figure it out.. Here is my code:
    margin-top:10px;
    width:998px;
    min-height:100px;
    max-height:300px;
    border:1px solid #CCC;
    -moz-border-radius: 10px;
    border-radius: 10px;
    background-image:url(../images/default/page.png);
    overflow:hidden;

When the margin-top is set at 10px the div doesn't move at all. If i set the margin-top to be 200px then the div doesn't move. However if i set it to say 500px then it moves down 500 as expected.
I have already tried removing the min & max heights for just a single set height however this doesn't sort the problem. Not that it should cause issues in the first place.
Can anyone see my mistake? I am sure my coding is relatively sound and don' really know how to research solving this issue.

A: Check the margin and float of other elements. I don't see any problems with the code you provided.

A: In CSS, adjacent vertical margins collapse, pending certain conditions.
So say you have 2 divs stack 1 on top of another. The top div has a margin bottom of 30px, and the bottom div has a margin top of 20px. In this situation, the margins 'collapse' into the highest value, the 30px margin bottom on the top div.
More info on this can be found here
In your situation, i'd look at the CSS of the surrounding elements to see if changing those values would do what you want.

A: I have managed to resolved this issue by placing the divs above this one within another container Div and applying a margin-bottom:10px to it.
Its not totally ideal because it takes a little longer to code and adds another div which i don't really want but suppose it will have to do for now until i have a little more time to read up on this issue fully.
Thanks to everyone for your help and potential solutions.

BACKDOOR LNG EFFORTS CONTINUE AS IN-STATE LNG FADES AWAY
FOR RELEASE: FRIDAY, JULY 9, 2010, OR THEREAFTER
There's been plenty of good news lately for Californians who oppose setting up import terminals for liquefied natural gas (LNG) in this state. But the jury is still out on whether that means California consumers will be freed from the prospect of becoming dependent on that pricey form of imported energy.
The good news first: Only one active effort to build a California LNG import facility remains active and it isn't very active. That would be the proposed but almost dormant Esperanza receiving terminal, which would be built 15 miles off the coast of Long Beach.
The list of possibilities dwindled to that one when the state Lands Commission during the late spring formally terminated a bid to build a terminal tentatively called "Clearwater Port" on the coast just north of Ventura. The termination was automatic because there had been no activity by Clearwater's would-be builder, Houston-based NorthernStar Star Natural Gas.
Shortly after the Lands Commission action, NorthernStar declared itself bankrupt.
The demise of Clearwater marked the third LNG proposal to go under in the last 10 years, joining other failed plans to site facilities near Eureka and off the coast near the Los Angeles-Ventura county line.
LNG is natural gas supercooled to a liquid and shipped thousands of miles across oceans in gigantic, multi-hulled tankers, then reheated back to a gaseous state and pumped into existing pipeline networks. The only foreign LNG now able to reach California comes through Sempra Energy's Costa Azul receiving plant north of Ensenada, not far south of the Mexican border.
There's further good news for California consumers in the forecasts of both the U.S. Energy Information Agency and several leading private natural gas consultants indicating there will be no need for LNG anytime in the foreseeable future.
One reason for that is a fast-increasing effort by U.S. companies to exploit the gas contained in shale deposits in Wyoming and Colorado.
Consultant Ben Schlesinger, who has worked for Exxon Mobil, BP, Shell Oil, Tokyo Gas, Nigeria LNG and other industry giants, is one who predicts the glut of American gas coming on-line in the next several years will create an oversupply of gas not only here, but also in Europe – which imports almost all its energy.
This suggests it's likely that some American LNG facilities will be converted from receiving gas to sending it overseas – the very thing that's about to happen to a just-approved facility at Kitimat, Canada, on the British Columbia coast north of Vancouver. First designed as an import plant, Kitimat now will become an exporting facility.
And yet, there's still some potential bad news out there for California gas customers worried about the high cost of LNG. It comes from Oregon, where a plant at Coos Bay is well along in the approval process. Oregon's Public Utilities Commission estimated long ago that three-fourths of all imports coming to any terminal in that state would end up in California.
Why should that concern consumers? Because each specially-built LNG tanker costs more than $1 billion and it takes at least six to keep any receiving plant supplied. The plants that first turn natural gas liquid and then turn it back to an invisible gas cost more billions. Those costs are inevitably included in the price consumers pay for whatever gas they use that stems from LNG, raising them substantially. No matter how piously companies like PG&E, Southern California Gas and San Diego Gas & Electric (SoCal Gas and SDG&E are both fully-owned by Sempra) deny that LNG will increase rates, the sheer amounts invested in LNG facilities guarantee it.
Which means millions of Californians have a major interest in a very local-looking Oregon dispute. For the longer farmers in two Oregon counties can delay building of a link between Coos Bay and PG&E's existing pipeline for Canadian gas near Roseburg, Ore., the greater will be the predicted American natural gas glut.
And the greater the glut, the lower the price of all natural gas worldwide. If the price gets too low, there will be little incentive for building any new LNG plants. That's what happened in the early 1980s, when both PG&E and Southern California Gas insisted LNG was critical for California's energy needs – only to see crashing gas prices make their plan for an LNG plant at Pt. Conception in Santa Barbara County economically infeasible. As a result, Californians have paid an estimated $40 billion less in gas bills over the last 30 years than they otherwise would have – and there have been none of the shortages the big utilities predicted. The sky did not fall when Pt. Conception was left in its natural state.
A lawsuit by the Chumash Indian tribe created the delay that killed that effort. Citizen groups in Oregon are using every delaying tactic they can devise while trying to duplicate the consumerist triumph of the Chumash.
Californians need them to succeed – or we will pay untold billions more in gas bills over many decades to come.
