During the peak of the run we had a couple of solid days hooking fish everywhere we dropped a line. Doubles were not that uncommon. At this point, I just attached my GoPro to my landing net and we just fished.
As more and more fish moved into the rivers, we began focusing our efforts there. We had some unseasonably warm days with additional rain and the fish were grabbing up everything we drifted by them.
Joe works a seam looking for a steelhead to take.
Two thousand sixteen was a decent year for Lake Superior's rainbow trout and steelhead along Minnesota's North shore. With the social media monster growing ever larger and creating exponentially greater fishing pressure, I have decided to hold off on posting regular updates and create more of an end-of-season summary instead. We had some great days on the water this year so I will be doing this in several installments.
As of the end of April, 1,395 rainbow trout had been captured at the French River trap. This is really good news since the long-term average is 884. But fishing success has not followed with the high numbers of fish captured which has been a bit of a mystery to the locals who fish the shore regularly. Before much of the fish rearing migrated to the Spire Valley hatchery, fishing was quite good in the fall and all winter. For the past several years, this has not been the case – but the numbers of fish are still out there which has been baffling.
Joe caught this nice female rainbow trout on one of his very own hand-tied jigs.
My friend Joe was putting in his time early on trying to catch a rainbow trout from shore this year and when he finally did, he texted me a picture I will not soon forget. The fish did not grab my attention but the fact that he put it on the front seat of his truck! I think he was pretty excited to get that first fish of the year.
This trout received special treatment and even got to ride shotgun in Joe's truck!
A banner day catching rainbow trout along Lake Superior's North shore.
One of the nicer looking steelhead from this spring.
Some of the rainbows get a fungus that grows on them. No one is really sure what causes it, but apparently it is harmless… yet I have seen fish that appear blind in one eye if the fungus covers much of their face. I don't care much for catching these fungus-faced trout but they still put up a good fight.
It was a typical day at the fish hatchery. Fish roe and milt were stripped from live fish using compressed air. Before fertilization, the eggs are first disinfected because of concerns for disease. They are then moved into special tanks where they hatch into baby rainbow trout. Something happened on this day that no one ever noticed. One of those fish eggs mutated.
Did it have something to do with the treatment process for disease? Was something else introduced by accident? Did some kind of green ooze leak into the tank? Are we witnessing the first ever mutant ninja rainbow trout? Whatever it was that happened – on this day, Tina was born.
My friend Mitch and I were sitting on some late ice early this spring sight fishing for these big Lake Superior rainbow trout when we first met her. We couldn't believe our eyes. Very slowly she just coasted through the water underneath us. An enormous mutant. She must have been 12″ tall or more and well over 30″ long. Her belly was so wide and saggy it ballooned out wider than her back so when you looked straight down at her she just looked goofy. There was clearly something different about this fish besides her unnatural proportions. She did not look or behave like a normal hatchery trout. It was clear that she had a higher brain function than any other fish. This was Tina.
There are rumors that Tina was born with two heads and after one head fell off, she was left with twice the brain power and twice the normal body size of any other trout.
Again and again, she would circle through and slowly coast circles around our presentations without even moving a fin or tail. Already, each of us had iced a couple of nice rainbow trout, but Tina was too smart to fall for our tricks. Each time she came by nice and slow, she would look straight up at our presentation out of the corner of her eye – almost head cocked like a curious bird – studying them very closely. I wonder now if she was looking straight up through the gaping hole in the ice and studying me, looking me right in the eye.
We tried every dirty trick we new at the time to try to coax Tina to bite, but each time she would just study everything very slowly and deliberately. We ended the day with more questions than answers. And I have since made it my goal for this season to find Tina.
I know I have been close. Below you will find pictures of Helga and Henry – both large fish who were in cahoots with Tina and caught in recent week. They were interrogated at length as to Tina's whereabouts. All that we could get out of them was that they knew Tina and she was still out there somewhere close by. Henry and Helga did not get the chance to go back and warn Tina. I'm not taking any chances. I will find her. If not this year then next when she continues to grow even more massive and further mutate.
It felt like summer for a day. And then it dropped about 30 degrees the next. Taking advantage of the nice weather like everyone else, we took a kayak and canoe out on the lake to jig for herring and lake trout. The fishing was okay, but the weather was better. A couple of herring and several lake trout made it into the boats. After fishing deep we ventured shallower and even managed a nice steelhead. The fishing should continue to pick up but seems to shut down during the drastic temperature changes. Although some seemed to hit it just right and had some pretty good fishing.

WLS 093 - Abolish the NFA!
Welcome to the We Like Shooting show, Episode 93, this episode we'll talk about propane guns, Precision Reflex, SoCo Kydex, Tracking point, the 86 machine gun ban and more! Before I get started, we are looking for your stories. Tell us a story of how you got into guns or the shooting world and if we pick your story, we'll have you join us for our 100th episode! http://welikeshooting.com/story and submit!
is the attorney working on the Hollis v. Holder machinegun lawsuit, please welcome Stephen Stamboulieh.
Tonights story comes out of Detroit. A man calls 911 to report that he just shot someone on his front porch.
Wafer says: "Uh yes... I just shot somebody on my front porch. with a shotgun, banging on my door." Wafer gives his addressand ends the call by saying "thank you" and hanging up, even as police dispatch continued.
He was charged with second degree murder. Now what?
Tonight we are going to do We Like Shooting Theater sponsored by Manticore Arms. Where we re-enact movie scenes, our style. Tonight we will perform a scene from Full Metal Jacket, Aaron will be playing Private Pyle and Lil will play the part of Gunny Hartman. The rest of the WLS team will be playing the other recruits in the platoon.
HARTMAN: Jesus H. Christ! Private Pyle, why is your footlocker unlocked?
PYLE: Sir, I don't know, sir!
HARTMAN: Private Pyle, if there is one thing in this world that I hate, it is an unlocked footlocker! You know that, don't you?
HARTMAN: If it wasn't for jerks like you, there wouldn't be any thievery in this world, would there?
PYLE steps down, from the footlocker. HARTMAN flips open the lid with a bang and begins rummaging through the box.
HARTMAN: Well, now .. . let's just see if there's anything missing!
HARTMAN freezes. He reaches down and slowly picks up a jelly doughnut, holding it in disgust at arm's length with his fingertips.
HARTMAN: Holy Jesus! What is that? What is that, Private Pyle?!
PYLE: Sir, because I'm too heavy, sir!
HARTMAN: Because you are a disgusting fatbody, Private Pyle!
HARTMAN: Then why did you hide a jelly doughnut in your footlocker, Private Pyle?
HARTMAN: Because you were hungry?
Holding out the jelly doughnut, HARTMAN walks down the row of recruits still standing with their arms outstretched.
HARTMAN: Private Pyle has dishonored himself and dishonored the platoon! I have tried to help him, but I have failed! I have failed because you have not helped me! You people have not given Private Pyle the proper motivation! So, from now on, whenever Aaron fucks up, I will not punish him, I will punish all of you! And the way I see it, ladies, you owe me for one jelly doughnut! Now, get on your faces!
HARTMAN:(to PYLE) Open your mouth!
HARTMAN: They're paying for it, you eat it!
HARTMAN: Ready . . . exercise!
One, two, three, four! I love the Marine Corps! One, two, three, four! I love the Marine Corps! One, two, three, four!
I love the Marine Corps! One, two, three, four . . .
While the platoon does push-ups, PYLE swallows hard to get down bites of the doughnut.

What can I learn on an Airframe And Powerplant Mechanic Program?
Airframe and powerplant technician training is a great way of learning skills for a real job. Aircraft need to be serviced on a combination of number of cycle of a particular component or airtime. These schedules are very strictly controlled and monitored by the governing body; the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA,) to ensure that aircraft are safe. Aircraft can be separated into two main areas: the airframe and power source. The airframe is the physical structure of the aircraft such as the cabin, skin, wings, floor, steering devices, and rudders. The powerplant is everything that is concerned with providing power so the aircraft can fly. Broadly speaking you may learn a mixture of electrical and mechanical engineering.
Typical subjects of study for airframe and powerplant technician training might include: hydraulics systems, heating and cooling systems, steering, mechanics, electronics, control systems, engine technology, fuel delivery systems, and brakes. Useful subjects to study in school might include physics, math, mechanical drawing, computer science, and communications (written and verbal). Periodically, you will be required to undergo retraining to ensure that your skills are up to date. This is crucial for obvious reasons. Once you have passed your airframe and powerplant technician training you may find employment with the military, large airports, or small private airfields. Large airlines lose money every time an aircraft is not being used, so you may find that pressure is intense to work very quickly but thoroughly to get the craft serviced, checked, and back out again. Larger airports might run a 24/7 system so expect to work shifts, nights, and on weekends.

Based on what I've done here, I feel comfortable reiterating my claim that the singleton design pattern has a very real cost to your codebases and your team. Do you agree?
This post has been about a month in the offing. Back in August, I wrote about what the singleton pattern costs you. This prompted a good bit of discussion, most of which was (as it always is) anecdotal. So, I conceived of an experiment that I called the singleton challenge. Well, the results are in. I'm going to quantify the impact of the singleton design pattern on codebases.
I would like to offer an up-front caveat. I've been listening lately to a fascinating audiobook called "How to Measure Anything," and it has some wisdom for this situation. Measurement is primarily about reducing uncertainty. And one of the driving lessons of the book is that you can measure things - reduce uncertainty - without getting published in a scientific journal.
I mention that because it's what I've done here. I'll get into my methodology momentarily, but I'll start by conceding the fact that I didn't (and couldn't) control for all variables. I looked for correlation as a starting point because going for causation might prove prohibitive. But I think I took a much bigger bite out of trying to quantify this than anyone has so far. If they have, I've never seen it.
As I've mentioned in the past on this blog, I earn a decent chunk of my consulting income doing application portfolio assessments. I live and breathe static code analysis. So over the years, I've developed an arsenal of techniques and intellectual property.
This IP includes an extensive codebase assessor that makes use of the NDepend API to analyze codebases en masse, store the results, and report on them. So I took this thing and pointed it at GitHub. I then stored information about a lot of codebases.
I found this page with links to tons of C# projects on GitHub, so I used that as a "random" selection of codebases that I could analyze.
I gave my mass analyzer an ordered list of the codebase URLs and turned it loose.
Anything that didn't download properly, decompress properly, or compile properly (migrating for Core, restoring NuGet packages, and building from the command line) I discarded. This probably actually creates a bias toward better codebases.
Minus problematic codebases, I built all solutions in the directory structure and made use of all compiled, non-third-party DLLs for analysis.
I stored the results in my database and queried the same for the results in the rest of the post.
I should also note that, while I invited anyone to run analysis on their own code, nobody took me up on it (by all means, still do it, if you like).
From there, I filtered down raw numbers a bit. I won't go into all of the details because that would make this an immensely long post. But suffice it to say that I discounted certain pieces of code, such as compiler-generated methods, default constructors, etc. I adjusted this so we'd look exclusively at code that developers on these projects wrote.
50 of the 100 codebases didn't use singletons at all.
49 codebases used singletons, leaving one odd codebase that didn't have any developer-created types.
Of the 49 singleton codebases, 32 of them used stateful singletons.
These singleton codebases used 828 stateless singletons and 84 stateful ones.
Just two of these codebases made use of a whopping 637 singletons (mostly stateless), accounting for 70% of total use.
The stateful singletons were more evenly distributed, with no single codebase using more than 12% of them.
This seems to generally indicate that the singleton design pattern is pretty prevalent, but that stateful singletons are becoming less common.
Here were some hypotheses that I stated in the post announcing this experiment.
Stateful singleton prevalence varies inversely with the number of unit tests in a codebase.
But it varies directly with average method cyclomatic complexity in that codebase.
It varies inversely with assembly relational cohesion.
But it varies directly with average afferent coupling per type.
And it varies directly with average type lack of cohesion of methods (LCOM).
Calculating unit test prevalence was somewhat imprecise, as my current best means of doing this was to detect methods invoking some kind of assert and calculate what percentage of a codebase's methods do that. For the non-singleton (NS) codebases, 1.29% of methods were test methods. For singleton (S) codebases, this was 5.13%. And for stateful singleton (SS) codebases, the figure was 2.15%. This data does not support my hypothesis.
Method cyclomatic complexity looks a lot better for me. For NS, S, and SS, respectively, average method cyclomatic complexity was 1.42, 1.82, and 1.98. SS codebases are thus about 40% more complex at the method level.
I was wrong about relational cohesion, but, in retrospect, that was kind of a stupid hypothesis. The relational cohesion within an assembly essentially measures how interrelated types are, and one would probably expect more inter-type relationships where global state involves itself. Average NS, S, and SS assembly cohesion was 1.21, 1.56, and 1.62, respectively. Interestingly, NDepend thinks the NS codebases are a little too low and the S and SS ones are okay (but just barely).
With afferent coupling, I nailed it. NS, S, SS average values per type are 3.35, 6.86, and 5.85, respectively. This means that types in S codebases have more than double the coupling of NS codebases. It's curious that SS actually mutes the effect a bit compared to S codebases. That's probably worth further investigation.
With LCOM (lack of cohesion of methods) I also got it right. NS, S, and SS values are 0.12, 0.13, and 0.16, respectively, with SS codebases averaging a 33% decrease in cohesion. Because singletons promote type interdependence, you might expect higher assembly cohesion with simultaneously lower type cohesion. And that's what we see.
I gathered a lot more statistics besides, so I'll list some of these that I found interesting as well.
Method level cyclomatic complexity has a clear trend as well. NS, S, SS values there are 1.43, 1.82, and 1.98, respectively. In other words, the average SS codebase method is 40% more complex than the average NS codebase, in terms of paths through the code.
Lines of code per method shows a similar trend, with NS, S, SS values of 3.46, 4.09, and 4.25, respectively. NS codebases have shorter, less complex methods.
This same trend holds up with method overload counts as well, where NS, S, SS have an average of 1.58, 2.76, and 3.08 overloads respectively. I would have thought this relationship orthogonal, so that's interesting.
Another interesting result comes from the number of parameters, with NS, S, SS, 1.15, 1.14, and 1.19. This property seems mostly unaffected by the presence of singletons.
For the sake of brevity, here are a few more metrics where NS codebases have significantly less of the value than ones with singletons: control flow nesting depth, number of locals per method, number of methods called by the average method, type rank, and number of methods the average method calls.
And here are a few (perhaps some surprising) ones where NS codebases have a higher value than S codebases: percentage of static methods, percent of methods that read mutable state, number of fields per type, and rate of code comments.
And finally, some metrics where no meaningful trend seems to exist: lines of code per type, number of methods per type, type inheritance depth, and method rank.
I've included a lot of statistics about what I did, and I've elided even more. But, on the whole, it's been pretty interesting and, I think, revealing. Open source codebases are subject to a lot of scrutiny. They're often created and maintained by those in it for the love of the game - serious programmers. On the whole, we'd expect these codebases to be cleaner than average. And in terms of raw stats (compared to the enterprise codebases I evaluate), they are.
But if I'm to believe the people that claim the problem with singletons is only that people abuse them, this study doesn't support that conclusion. While stateful singletons ("abuse") did exhibit exaggerated properties compared to stateless ones ("use"), both sets differ significantly from non-singleton codebases in important ways.
In general, the singleton codebases had more path complexity, more conditional nesting, more code per method, more coupling among types, more local variables, and more things in general that make it harder to reason about and maintain code. On the flip side, they only seemed to have an advantage in having fewer class level fields, but this might be simply explained by a reliance on global collaborators. Based on this data, you can see significant drawbacks to the pattern in aggregate with almost no arguable advantages.
Again, it's worth remembering that this is only a look at correlations and only an attempt to replace anecdotes with at least some data. But based on what I've done here, I feel comfortable reiterating my claim that the singleton design pattern has a very real cost to your codebases and your team.

PHNOM PENH (22 Feb 2019) – A brace from Marinus Wanewar put Indonesia in the semifinals of the AFF Under-22 LG Cup 2019 when they beat hosts Cambodia 2-0 in the final game of Group B that was played tonight at the National Olympic Stadium.
With the Malaysians also on the winning trail when they beat Myanmar 1-0 across town at the RSN Stadium, the victory failed to elevate them for a place in the next round.
Malaysia only picked up four points as against Indonesia's five where they will now join Cambodia in the semifinals of the championship in two days.
Indonesia started strongly against a Cambodian side not only assured of a place in the final four but who had also won the group following their two victories over Malaysia and also Myanmar previously.
And Indonesia do not seem to be playing under pressure as they took full control of the flanks and where in the 20th minute a cross from the right off Witan Sulaeman gave the chance for Marinus to score from close.
With five changes to the side that overwhelmed Myanmar in their last game, Cambodia's attempt lacked their usual drive and tenacity as the score remained all the way for much of the second half.
And seven minutes to the end, Marinus sealed the win for Indonesia as he evaded his markers to make good on the cross from Osvaldo Haay.
IN THE MEANTIME, Malaysia scored a futile 1-0 win over Myanmar in the match that was played at the RSN Stadium.
The Malaysians put up a better show than what they had done in their first two matches of the competition as the two strikers of Muhammad Jafri Chew and Muhammad Hadi Fayyad Abdul Razak made their presence felt.
But their lack of fitness was obvious as Myanmar's Win Naing Tun was easily the better player at the other end.
Had it not been for the lack of support, Myanmar could have found the back of the net where instead, it was the Malaysians who finally went ahead in the close encounter with Hadi scoring from close following a boucing cross from the left just before the break.
Naing Tun was hardworking with the crosses and also effort from distant but it could not change the scoreline as Malaysia held on for the hard-earned win.
Following from today's results, Vietnam will take on Indonesia in the first semifinal on 24 Feb 2019 while hosts Cambodia will entertain Thailand in the second game of the day.

A pedestrian walks past a storefront on Columbus Avenue with for lease signs in the window on Tuesday, January 22, 2019 in San Francisco, Calif.
It's apparent when you're walking around neighborhoods like North Beach and the Castro: store-front vacancies are growing as San Francisco's retail landscape has been upended. Mayor London Breed has proposed easing the permitting process for opening up a business in the city.
But District 3 Supervisor Aaron Peskin says there's another culprit — landlords and building owners who intentionally keep their properties vacant for a variety of reasons. He wants to tax them on the vacancies — and will try to put a measure to do so on the November ballot.
The proposal will need six votes from the Board of Supervisors to be put on the ballot.
Not too far away from North Beach, there's a fire station at 530 Sansome Street that the city is preparing to sell. With a $20 million asking price, the city hopes to build a new fire station with luxury apartments on top, J.K. Dineen reports. The city also wants to use money from the sale and affordable housing fees to develop affordable apartments at 772 Pacific Avenue, a city-owned building that will keep its dim sum banquet hall in the redevelopment effort.
And back at City Hall, Mayor Breed has appointed Jenny Lam to the school board. But Lam is also her education adviser, hired by the mayor three months ago. The appointment, while legal, has raised concerns about conflicts of interests between Lam's two roles, Jill Tucker reports, especially as the school district wants part of the city's unexpected windfall.
•Bankruptcy fight: It's not déjà vu — Erin Brockovich was rallying against PG&E Tuesday in Sacramento. She joined lawyers representing wildfire survivors calling for an 11th-hour deal that would avert the firm's bankruptcy plan or prevent it from short-changing survivors' potential settlements. Meanwhile, the utility says it has lined up $5.5 billion in funding from major banks to help operations during a bankruptcy.
•High hopes: Oakland Rep. Barbara Lee is the first person of color to co-chair the bipartisan Congressional Cannabis Caucus — and it's no laughing matter for her. Lee sees marijuana politics as a crucial part of addressing "institutional racism and injustice in our criminal justice system" and she's got lofty goals — including decriminalizing pot nationwide. You can also listen to our interview with Lee on the It's All Political podcast.
•(Less of a) pay day: The U.S. Department of Labor has added new accusations in its lawsuit against Bay Area tech firm Oracle, alleging the company used discriminatory hiring practices that cost employees more than $400 million in lost wages.
•Local films make good: Film critic Mick LaSalle is underwhelmed by a set of Oscar nominations that are a "dim reflection of a vibrant year" in film, but makes some early predictions of likely winners anyway.
•Hall of Famers: The Baseball Hall of Fame has added former Yankees' relief pitcher Mariano Rivera to its ranks with the first unanimous vote. Former Giants left fielder Barry Bonds missed the cut off. Earlier, the six Chronicle sports reporters with ballots explained their votes.
•Sugar backlash: California had the first sugary drink tax in the nation (in Berkeley), but is also one of four states that now prevents localities from passing similar laws. Doctors at UCSF have taken aim at the sugar-sweetened beverage industry for helping pass the law, warning it could have a devastating impact on public health.
•Lunch, eaten: Munchery was among a crop of on-demand food-delivery services that tried to do it all: make chef-prepared meals in its own kitchens, handle delivery and create its own brand names. It proved too much — the business announced it has closed.
•SCOTUS moves: Hundreds of thousands of young undocumented immigrants could be protected from deportation for another two years after the Supreme Court on Tuesday opted not to review the DACA program. Immigration reporter Tatiana Sanchez outlines what you need to know about the program. The Supreme Court has also allowed the Trump administration to move forward with its ban on transgender people serving in the military as the wider case works through the courts.
•'Pop-in Hausen': West Portal retail staple and hardware store Papenhausen will open a "pop-up" version more than a year after its building burned. It's ready for customers, but one of the biggest reasons the store has gone makeshift is to retain Papenhausen's loyal staff.
•Tartine at Gate 26: A roster of high-powered culinary talent has arrived at the area's newest food hall — in San Francisco International Airport. Slimmed down versions of Tartine Bakery, Kin Khao and Cala will now serve travelers in SFO's international terminal.
California Senator Kamala Harris approaches the podium at a press conference regarding her announcement to run for president in 2020 at Howard University in Washington, D.C. on January 21, 2019.
Will "B-more" be more for Kamala Harris' presidential hopes?
Sen. Kamala Harris will tell you she's a "proud daughter of Oakland, California." So why is her campaign headquarters in Maryland?
Baltimore offers a number of logistical advantages to the California senator's presidential run, Tal Kopan writes, not least of which is proximity to Washington but a location that's more typical of U.S. cities than the nation's capital.

The North Country Chamber of Commerce and the Development Corporation of Clinton County are welcoming news that fDi Magazine (Foreign Direct Investment), a publication of the Financial Times of London, has ranked Plattsburgh among the Top Ten "Micro American Cities of the Future", ranking #8 among all micropolitan cities in North and South America. The city rankings are released every two years as part of an analysis of various sized cities in the Western Hemisphere, with micro cities being those with less than 100,000 population.
Plattsburgh also ranked #3 for Economic Potential and #2 for Foreign Direct Investment Strategy.
"While most other economic development rankings are comparing past performance, fDi looks at trends and strategies to spotlight the cities across North and South America which are set to perform well in the future," states Garry Douglas, President of the North Country Chamber of Commerce. "It tells international companies and investors where they should be looking for opportunities. It has provided a strong boost to our economic development outreach following each of the last two assessments which placed us in the top ten and there's no question that this remarkable top ten ranking once again will bring fresh power to our efforts to attract further foreign direct investment here."
fDi's Cities of the Future rankings are created by a distinguished judging panel, reviewing and analyzing dozens of data points. Among the criteria used are population forecasts, GDP, total inward and outward foreign direct investment, infrastructure investments, strategies and tools for FDI and other factors and trends.
"Greater Plattsburgh is consistently ranked as a Top 10 Micropolitan City of the Future because we are a progressive 21st century community, uniquely positioned for business development and foreign direct investment," says Paul Grasso, President of the Development Corporation. "The Institute for Advanced Manufacturing set to open this fall is a testament to the commitment the region has to creating a hub for manufacturing education, and to continuing to support and attract international companies such as Fujitsu, Bombardier, Norsk Titanium, Nova Bus and Schluter Systems, among many others."
"The world continues to recognize Plattsburgh as a unique growth center for international business," says Colin Read, Mayor of the City of Plattsburgh in response to the findings. "Once again placing in the top ten will draw even more interest to our area. We salute our entire economic development team for helping to achieve this high recognition, especially the great work of the North Country Chamber and the Development Corporation."
"The Greater Plattsburgh area continues to see extraordinary growth and development, with many manufacturing, transportation and aerospace companies calling us home," notes Michael Cashman, Supervisor of the Town of Plattsburgh. "Our culture and economy have an international character due to our strong relationship with our Canadian neighbors and our many international companies. This designation supports that from uptown to downtown Plattsburgh, we are a unique economic hub in the North Country. A great place to invest, live, work and play."
"This welcomed announcement is further evidence of the strength of the North Country economy and is a result of the continued coordination of all the principle economic stakeholders in Clinton County at the highest level," states Harry McManus, Chair of the Clinton County Legislature. "We have state investment and grants which point to a bright future for our Aerospace cluster, our airport and the City of Plattsburgh. Our citizens have many employment opportunities which will allow them to continue to enjoy all the benefits of living in our county."
Douglas and Grasso credit the area's full economic development team for achieving the high rankings, including the Chamber, the Development Corporation, the North Country Regional Economic Development Council, the City and Town of Plattsburgh, the Clinton County Legislature and IDA, Empire State Development, the North Country Workforce Development Board, Clinton Community College, SUNY Plattsburgh, CV-TEC, CITEC, Clarkson University and others involved in economic and workforce development.

I had a nice visit to Illinois State University on Thursday. I got a tour and the opportunity to speak as the Bryant Jackson Lecturer this year to library staff, faculty and students about the future of libraries. I had the honour to meet Mr Jackson as well as a great lunch and dinner with friends and colleagues.


They say "goals win games" and so it proved to be in Summerhill on Sunday morning in this tight and tense minor Div 3 semifinal. But the goals were not the only talking point as the result was in doubt up to the final whistle. The visitors brought a mobile style of football, mixed with a physicality not experienced by the home side in this competition to date. To come out on top in the end was testament to Summerhill refusing to panic when things were going against them.
Playing against a strong breeze in the first half scores were hard to come by. Adam Larkin got on the end of a great move to finish expertly to the net to open the home account, while a fine effort from play by Kian Hussey and two from Jamie O'Shea (1free) gave Summerhill a narrow one point lead at the break, 1-03 to 0-05.
Great defensive work by Conor Ryan, Gavin McVann, Kevin Mulligan etc. kept the 'Brackies scoring efforts to a minimum in that opening period. However it was the visitors who got on the scoresheet earliest in the second half, carrying on where they left off and making little of the fresh breeze to go ahead for the first time. Eoghan Frayne, who found the going tough against a well drilled defense, at last got on the scoresheet, before substitute Jamie Ryan, in the right place at the right time at the edge of the square finished an Adam Larkin high ball to the net.
The final minutes were filled with drama. Ballinabrackey, who were winning the lionshare of midfield possession, scored a rather fortunate goal to go ahead by a point. The home side drew level with a super Adam McDonnell effort, at the second time of asking, and extra time looked to be on the cards. However the Summerhill lads had a senior semifinal to go to, and a superb finish to the net by Jamie O'Shea ensured the road to Navan shortly afterwards was a happy one.

A Little Something to Get the Party Going
To Munch: Crisp, Chewy, Not Too Sweet
Photo Credit Tony Cenicola/The New York Times
This new line of cookies is all about balance. Crisp, with some chewy give. Restrained sweetness. Chunky bits of chocolate or raisins, but not too many. They come in chocolate chip-pecan, oatmeal raisin with almonds, granola with spelt, and gluten-free chocolate-chile. All taste homemade and come in baker's dozens in funky brown bags. They are the work of Myra Dalland, a chef who had a Mexican food company, Authentico, in Long Island City, Queens, before she moved to Santa Fe. A diabetic, she insisted on natural ingredients and less sugar: Authenticookies are $23.99 for three bags from authenticookies.com. At Zabar's and Brooklyn Fare for $7.99 a bag.

What is an eBook?
An ebook is one of two file formats that are intended to be used with e-reader devices and apps such as Amazon Kindle or Apple iBooks.
Why is an eBook better than a PDF?
A PDF is a digital representation of the print book, so while it can be loaded into most e-reader programs, it doesn't allow for resizable text or advanced, interactive functionality. The eBook is optimized for e-reader devices and apps, which means that it offers a much better digital reading experience than a PDF, including resizable text and interactive features (when available).
Where do I get eBook files?
eBook files are now available for a large number of reports on the NAP.edu website. If an eBook is available, you'll see the option to purchase it on the book page.

Q: Tell Entity Framework to ignore custom database tables Is it possible to tell Entity Framework to ignore any custom tables I add to the database. For example, say if I use the sqlmemberhipprovider in the same database as the one used for EF, can I tell EF to just ignore whatever tables I haven't already created classes for? Right now, it's giving the error
"The model backing the 'xxx' context has changed since the database was created. Consider using Code First Migrations to update the database (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=238269). "
I don't want EF to do anything on the extra tables it doesn't recognize.

A: I figured out what I was doing wrong. It wasn't the Membership tables that were causing the problem it was another table I deleted manually that EF was tracking.

A: Have you tried setting your initializer to null?

The Librarians: 1.08 "And the Heart of Darkness" Review
Seher
We go from science fair and witchcraft to a horror movie opening with a girl, Katie (portrayed by Lea Zawada, who was also in Leverage as a character that Christian Kane's character Elliot protects) running from a house in Slovakia that may be killing people.
The house. Not Slovakia.
So, not good.
That and the ley lines, which are natural channels along which magic travels, are broken and going "wavy"—that means wild magic.
Really not good.
The idea of ley lines of magic running underground is so cool to me. I'm surprised the Brotherhood hasn't tried to tap into one actually, but I digress.
Eve and Jake go to look at the house while Ezekiel goes to activate magical cardinal scrolls to anchor the ley line's energies, and Cassandra is told to stay with Katie. Eve doesn't want Cassandra to be around the ley lines because Eve doesn't trust Cassandra all that much after the whole evil!Cassandra thing.
Also, because—in the original order of continuity—this all happened closer to the pilot and the mistrust of Cassandra after her initial betrayal was still strong.
Katie refuses to stay back, and they all end up in the house, which doesn't fit normal house dimensions. The hallway is longer than the house itself because haunted, and this is the exact moment where the audience collectively yells "Get outta the house!"
As Eve, Ezekiel, and Jake walk through the rooms, they come across a photo of the house, and Eve sees Katie's friends in the photo where no one else can.
The good news is that the ley line have been anchored, but the bad news is that all those urban legends of people dying in old houses aren't legends. They all occurred in one of five Mystery Houses—one of which is the Dionaea House, which is from a Creepypasta that tells the story about a house that eats people.
The sixth Mystery House is the House of Refuge, which actually helps people.
The house that the LITs and Katie are in—the Shatterbox—is the opposite.
It's been eating people and moving around for a century, and while there's no chance (yet) for Katie's friends, the LITs can stop the house if they find its dark heart by midnight.
Ezekiel asks the question we're all asking: "Why is it always midnight?"
As for Cassandra, she's become the Katie-wrangler and is really not pleased with being sidelined. This is one example of why airing episodes out of order does weird things to plot and character continuity because this episode was meant to air fifth with the characters still working out how to be a team, and Eve still learning how to be a Guardian.
So even though by "And the Rule of Three" the team had worked out most of their kinks, here we see that Cassandra is still not trusted, that her tumor which makes her useful also makes her unreliable, so she is sent off with Katie to the Annex when Ezekiel disappears in the house.
At least—that's what the audience is meant to assume since Jake thinks Ezekiel will ran like he did during training that first training session in episode two.
Except some evil/dark/spirit/thing-in-black destroys the car sending Katie and Cassandra back in the house before placing Jake in a doll house with Ezekiel who just randomly has samosas because whatever he wishes he gets.
So—this is an evil wish-giving house?
Well, when the wishes are meant to cause the people stay, I guess?
Jake realizes that the pictures on the wall of the dollhouse are from a variety of periods like the Crusades as well as from 10th century Astronomy books.
The house changed its images to fit the period of time in which it was, which means that the creepy photos from earlier must have been of a family that lived in the house at one point.
Outside, Cassandra realizes that the dark heart of the house is actually Katie! Katie starts muttering about Texarkana and calling Cassandra "Jessie" (a girl who was killed when the house was in Scotland and is very dead).
Props to Lea for portraying the creepiest girl ever.
Back in the house, Cassandra comes across a room where the spirits of all of Katie's past kills are standing while Katie explains her story downstairs: Katie and her family had been killing people, but she was the only one to realize her house was magical, and she could speak to it.
Uh…now that's a good horror movie plot, and I hate horror movies.
The house granted Katie's wish to live on after death and be what she calls "the Angel of Death", but Cassandra isn't having it. Cassandra faces death in the mirror every day and has been since she was fifteen when the doctors told her about her tumor. Katie isn't the Angel of Death here; Cassandra is.
(TNT really should have aired this episode in the right place because it leads to so much of the later episodes like when she talks about her potential being thwarted as evil!Cassandra!)
Cassandra swings at Katie with an axe causing Katie's body to disappear before Cassandra passes out.
When Cassandra wakes up, she finds a note from the house saying thank you and then comes across Ezekiel and Jake arguing about having the House of Wishes which Cassandra points out that this house isn't.
It's not the Shatterbox either.
It's the House of Refuge, and the House of Refuge helps those in need; however, no one expected that a family of serial killers was going to end up finding it.
Which, shouldn't a magical house have some sort of safeguard for that kind of stuff? Maybe, I'm overthinking it.
And, the evil/dark/spirit/thing before? Well, that was actually the house butler: a very nice, elderly man who fixes the car so that everyone can go home safely.
Okay. after watching "And the Rule of Three", which was meant to air ninth and seeing how far the team will have come, it was a bit jarring to watch Eve not trust Cassandra and almost babying her because of a nosebleed as well as Cassandra's lack of control over her synesthesia.
Even so, this was obviously meant to be part of Cassandra's redemption for letting the Brotherhood into the Library during the pilot because she's the one (besides Jake) who really realizes what's going on with the house and is able to stop Katie once and for all.
Plus, the bit about Cassandra being Death—or at least seeing herself as Death when she faces her impending death every day—is a pretty huge revelation for her character and could mean that in the season finale Cassandra'll have some big choices to make about magic in relation to her tumor.
Ezekiel, Eve, and Jake all have minuscule moments of growth as well, but this episode really is about Cassandra, and it's quite artfully done.

Myanmar sees biggest protests since 2007 uprising
Tens of thousands on the streets of Yangon despite social media shutdown
Protesters have turned out in strength over the weekend in Yangon, Myanmar's former capital. There have also been anti-junta gatherings in Naypyitaw, the capital, Mandalay, the second largest city, and Mawlamine, a port in the country's southwest. (Photo by Yuichi Nitta)
YUICHI NITTA and YOHEI MURAMATSU, Nikkei staff writers February 7, 2021 13:43 JST Updated on February 7, 2021 18:01 JST | Myanmar
YANGON/BANGKOK -- Tens of thousands of defiant protesters marched in the streets of Yangon for a second day almost a week after the military arrested the country's elected leader, Aung San Suu Kyi.
Reuters news agency reported that tens of thousands of marchers were calling for the release of Suu Kyi in the largest demonstration seen in the former capital since 2007. At that time, Buddhist monks were at the forefront of a pro-democracy uprising triggered by sudden hikes in fuel prices.

Antitrust class actions are prominent among high-stakes civil cases, and they invariably involve complex procedural and substantive issues. Paul has served as liaison counsel and lead defense counsel in some of the largest antitrust class actions, within and outside the Third Circuit, and he has argued on behalf of antitrust defendants in a number of precedent-setting appeals, including the Third Circuit's 2010 Dentsply decision and its 2015 Blood Reagents decision.
Paul argued an appeal of a class certification decision on behalf of a leading health care company. The Third Circuit, in vacating the district court's order, held for the first time that: "a plaintiff cannot rely on challenged expert testimony, when critical to class certification, to demonstrate conformity with Rule 23 unless the plaintiff also demonstrates, and the trial court finds, that the testimony satisfies the standard set out in Daubert." Id. at 187. In re Blood Reagents Antitrust Litigation, 783 F.3d 183 (3d Cir. 2015).
Paul argued on behalf of a group of dental dealers, in an appeal of a dismissal order entered in their favor. In affirming the dismissal, the Third Circuit agreed with the district court that the plaintiffs had not adequately alleged a "hub and spoke" conspiracy. Id. at 257 ("The Plaintiffs have failed to allege any facts plausibly suggesting a unity of purpose, a common design and understanding, or a meeting of the minds between and among Dentsply and all of the dealers."). In re Dentsply Antitrust Litigation, 602 F.3d 237 (3d Cir. 2010).

Hotels suffered worst year ever with nearly zero profit
Trump backs off 'total authority,' says he'll consult states
President Donald Trump backed away from his claim that he had total authority to order states to reopen the economy after a backlash from governors who said he was overstepping his constitutional powers.
"They know when it's time to open, and we don't want to put pressure on anybody," Trump said Tuesday at a White House press briefing. "I'm not going to put any pressure on any governor to open."
Trump's comments came a day after he said he had "the ultimate authority" to order states to comply with a federal plan to reopen the economy. His remarks sparked broad criticism from legal scholars and governors, including New York's Andrew Cuomo, who warned of "a constitutional crisis like you haven't seen in decades" if the president sought to lift social-distancing requirements over states' objections.
City will produce its own coronavirus tests by May
Cuomo inter-state council to plan economic reopening
Trump said a teleconference with governors would likely be held on Thursday, and predicted they will be "very, very respectful of the presidency." When asked if he would withhold federal aid from states that don't abide by his suggestions for a reopening strategy, Trump said he wasn't making a threat and predicted state leaders "will listen" to his advice and requests.
"We're going to work with the governors. The governors are going to do a good job," Trump said. "And if they don't do a good job, we're going to come down on them very hard. We'll have no other choice."
The president did say the federal government would block governors from ending social-distancing practices early if federal health officials determined it was unwise, adding that he wanted states like New York —the epicenter of the pandemic—to take their time coming back online.
Trump's remarks appeared to be a reversal after legal experts and some governors disputed his claim that he had the authority to order states to comply with his wish to reopen businesses. The 10th Amendment to the Constitution reserves for states all powers that aren't specifically granted to the federal government.
Cuomo, in an interview with NBC News earlier Tuesday, said: "If he thinks he's going to force this state, or any state for that matter, to do something that is reckless or irresponsible, that could endanger human life, literally, because we don't reopen correctly, you will see those virus numbers go up again, and more people will die."
At a news conference later in the day, Cuomo said he didn't want to engage in a fight with Trump, and announced a partnership with six other Northeast states to plan for a gradual resumption of the regional economy.
Cuomo's comments came as New York reported 778 new virus fatalities in 24 hours, pushing the total near 11,000. Total confirmed infections now exceed 200,000, taxing the capabilities of the city's health system.
Asked about the New York governor's comments, Trump said: "We'll get along just fine."
City might run out of Covid vaccines by the weekend, de Blasio says
Cuomo seeks to buy vaccines directly from Pfizer for New York
City will run out of vaccines next week

Making Sense of Carbon Markets
What's the purpose of the Carbon Markets?
Pollution is what economists refer to as a negative externality of today's production and supply chains. It is a cost to society not accounted for in the market price of an end product. When pollution remains unregulated and there is no cost to the polluter, the cost to society in the end can be significant.
There are, however, many ways of regulating the amount of pollutants that are allowed into the atmosphere. For very harmful pollutants, like lead, legal limits apply, which must be adhered to. However, when it comes to regulating CO2 emissions, governments around the world have favoured market mechanisms, and in 1997, one outcome of the Kyoto Protocol negotiations was to establish just such a set of flexible market mechanism (the "Carbon Markets") that would allow companies or countries the ability to trade GHG emissions permits and drive emissions reductions at the same time.
The trading system under a global marketplace was designed to operate in two ways;
A managed 'cap-and-trade' scheme (eg. the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme) to help lower global emissions by limiting and reducing a country's or company's permit to pollute ("allowances") over time. Cap and trade systems do not put a price on emissions. Instead, they set a cap on the total emissions that are allowed in the system. Permits are issued to businesses yearly, either through auction or free allocation, each permit giving the right to emit one tonne of CO2. The number of permits issued is then reduced every year, ensuring that total emissions go down over time. Businesses can trade permits which creates a market price for carbon. In short, a cap and trade system determines the quantity of emissions that are allowed, and the market determines the price.
Offsetting mechanism whereby a country or company can compensate for its residual or unavoidable emissions by purchasing a carbon credit (1 carbon credit = 1 tonne of CO2e) from a project reducing carbon emissions elsewhere in the world ("offsetting").
The idea behind all this is that, over time, it should become cheaper to abate emissions in-house rather than purchase carbon credits - creating a financial incentive to curb GHG emissions and increase action to mitigate global impacts of climate change.
Additionally, under the Kyoto Protocol this offsetting mechanism meant money through carbon finance would flow from the developed nations (historically, the big emitters who had set climate targets) to projects in developing nations. Alongside reducing GHG emissions, such projects often host other social and environmental co-benefits for the surrounding area and communities.
What's the distinction between compliance and voluntary markets?
Simple - one is compliance, and the other is voluntary.
The early compliance markets developed under the UN, and Government mandated, were targeted towards heavy polluting industries and nations. Participation was mandated.
Over the years, non-compliant private sector contributors sought out to buy carbon credits on a voluntary basis, as a way of building upon existing CSR strategies. This established the need for a Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) – governed and regulated by specific organisations and standards, rather than governments.
What changed for these markets under the Paris Agreement?
Firstly, the Paris Agreement recognised the need for truly global action – meaning all (or almost all) countries adopted their own climate targets – not just the richer, developed nations as was the case with the Kyoto Protocol. This also meant that emissions reduction (offset) projects could be set up in all countries – not just the poorer, developing countries.
Secondly, as the VCM evolved, it was recognised under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement the need for a more established and regulated voluntary market to ensure integrity, transparency and quality assurance for corporate buyers and projects.
With both of the above in mind, negotiators on Article 6 have been working over the past 6 years to set out the rules and governance structures to overcome some of the key challenges, including carbon offset accounting (for example: where to count the carbon offset if the business that buys it is in a different country than where the project is hosted) and claims, to support developing a strong, standardised and commoditised market.
Such rules are fundamental to build trust and confidence for buyers and needed to create the climate change action needed to keep us in line with our ambitions to keep under a 1.5c warming scenario.
How is Price determined in the VCM?
Whereas price in the compliance markets is managed, there are numerous variables determining price in the VCM. These include but not limited to; shadowing of the compliance markets; project type; project location (land and establishment costs); standards under which the projects are certified; and project co-benefits (i.e. helping improve social, community-based benefits such as health and wellbeing, gender equality etc).
More recently, another key driver for the price increase of carbon credits has been the significant influx of demand off the back of growing climate awareness, driving corporate carbon neutrality and net zero pledges. The demand increase of existing, issued carbon credits is shortening supply, leading to increase prices.
The increased carbon price per unit will subsequently;
More closely reflect the societal & environmental impact of carbon in our atmosphere
Incentivise new development of carbon projects – and new climate innovations
And ultimately, reach a point where it becomes cheaper to address 'hard-to-abate' emissions
What is Forest Carbon's Role in all this?
Within the international Voluntary Carbon Markets, Forest Carbon is primarily focused upon driving action for UK projects – working with Nature Based Solutions such as New Woodland Creation, Peatland Restoration and newly emerging innovations.
Our core purpose is to maximise investment and optimise its impact, so that land managers across the country can harness the power of natural processes to help restore our environment and put our society on a path to genuine sustainability. To find out more about Forest Carbon, [click here].
How can I act?
Depending on whether you're an individual, household or business, there always ways you can reduce your footprint on the planet.
For businesses this may mean taking action to mitigate the impact of your operations (Scopes 1, 2 and 3) or a specific activity/event, enhancing the environmental proposition of your products and services, or simply taking action in line with your CSR approach.
Following best practice, we recommend an approach to 1) accurately measure the carbon footprint of your operations and/or products, 2) set out and begin implementing your reduction strategy, and 3) compensate for unavoidable, residual emissions by support high quality projects mitigating emissions elsewhere with a reputable partner such as Forest Carbon.
For individuals, we recommend the using a similar approach to adjust your lifestyle and live more sustainably.

What are peatlands?
Where our
projects are
Forest Carbon leads the way in developing woodland creation and peatland restoration projects for carbon capture and ecosystem services in the UK. We have planted over 10 million new trees in 200+ new woodlands since 2006 with our partners removing over 2 million tonnes of CO2e from the atmosphere, as well as providing a host of other benefits to society, including habitat creation, biodiversity support, flood mitigation, river ecosystem improvement and public access.
Our new woodland schemes spread across Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland. They are certified by the Woodland Carbon Code – which is supported by the UK government and internationally recognised by ICROA. Planting the 'right tree in the right place' is required though adherence to the Forestry Commission standards.
Our peatland schemes can be found in Scotland and Wales. They are certified by the Peatland Code which is supported by the IUCN. These certification codes assure the additionality and permanence of each tonne of carbon stored.

Konstriktion als wissenschaftlicher Fachbegriff geht auf das lateinische Verb: cōn-stringere zurück (dt.: 'zusammenschnüren', englisch: constriction) und bedeutet 'Zusammenschnüren'.

 In der Biologie wird im wissenschaftlichen Sprachgebrauch die Fangmethode der Würgeschlangen als Konstriktion bezeichnet; auch der Name der Boa constrictor weist auf dieses Verhalten hin. Die konstriktive Fortbewegung mancher Schlangenarten ist ein Zusammenziehen des Körpers in Längsrichtung vergleichbar einer Ziehharmonika.
 Im medizinischen Sprachgebrauch versteht man unter Konstriktion die physiologische oder pathologische Verengung von Hohlorganen z. B. das Zusammenziehen eines Blutgefäßes (Vasokonstriktion), des Bronchialsystems (Bronchokonstriktion) oder eines anderen Hohlorganes (siehe auch: Striktur). Der ähnliche Begriff 'Kontraktion' ('Zusammenziehen'), z. B. von Muskelgewebe (Muskelkontraktion), Cytoskelett-Filamenten, Mikrotubuli, Motorproteinen, oder bei der Mitose geht mit einer Verkürzung einer (molekularen, mikroskopischen oder makroskopischen) kontraktilen Struktur einher und ist von dem Begriff der 'Konstriktion' zu unterscheiden; ein synonymer Gebrauch ist daher meist falsch.

 In der Psychologie bezeichnet Konstriktion ein Symptom der Posttraumatischen Belastungsstörung (PTBS). Es beschreibt ein Vermeiden von Situationen, die als bedrohlich empfunden werden, einen sozialen Rückzug, und die psychische Erstarrung und emotionale Taubheit oder emotionale Anästhesie ("emotionales oder psychisches Zusammenziehen"). Der Betroffene hat keine Möglichkeit, eine Situation zu bewältigen (weder fliehen noch kämpfen) und gerät nach dem aus der Biologie in die Psychotraumatologie übernommenen 3F-Modell (fight, flight or freeze model) in einen schockartigen 'Erstarrungszustand' ("Totstellreflex"). Damit befindet er sich in einer traumatischen Zange, einem in der Psychotraumatologie (Michaela Huber, 2003) gebräuchlichen Begriff, der dort zu: fight, flight or freeze and fragment erweitert wurde, wodurch die während des 'Freeze-Zustands' ausgelöste Dissoziation, Abspaltung und Fragmentierung der traumatischen Gedächtnisinhalte (ein Vorgang, der bereits 1889 von Pierre Janet als Traumafolge entdeckt und beschrieben wurde) zum Ausdruck gebracht wird.

Q: Java .split("|") not working I just ran into the problem that the split method for strings wouldn't work with character "|" as an argument. It somehow separates each character in the string.
Code:
String[] res = "12345|6".split("|");
Log.d("split", Arrays.toString(res));

Output:
split﹕ [, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, |, 6]

A: | is a regular expression key character and split() works with regualar expressions. Escape it like this: \\|

A: You can try to escape it like this:
String[] res = "12345|6".split("\\|");

Pipe has special meaning in regular expression and it allows regular expression components to be logically ORed. So all you need to escape it using the \\

A: If you have split using "||" then you use :
      yourstring.split(Pattern.quote("||"))

A: Use escape character before | like below:
String[] res = "12345|6".split("\\|");

Similar "escape character logic" is required, when you are
dealing/splitting with any of the below special characters (used by
Regular Expression):

*

*OR sign (|)

*question mark (?)

*asterisk (*)

*plus sign (+)

*backslash (\)

*period (.)

*caret (^)

*square brackets ([ and ])

*dollar sign ($)

*ampersand (&)

A: You can try this, simple and easy.
String[] res = "12345|6".split("[|]");

A: public static void main(String[] args) {
    String data = "12345|6|7|990";
    String[] arr = data.split("\\|");
    for(int i = 0 ; i< arr.length; i++){
      System.out.println(arr[i]);
    }
  }
