Q: Swift How do I filter array based on another array I have an array VIPArray and AddressArray so I would like to filter AddressArray based on VIPArray. How can I do this?
VIPArray looks like this
let VIPArray = [["name": "John B"], ["name": "Sara K"]]

AddressArray looks like this
let AddressArray = [Address(name: "John B",  imageURL: "johnb", address: "178 Main St."),
                    Address(name: "Dave H",  imageURL: "daveh", address: "1011 Victoria St.."),
                    Address(name: "Sara K",  imageURL: "sarak", address: "279 Maple Av."),
                    Address(name: "Niles K", imageURL: "nilesk", address: "45 King St."),
                    Address(name: "Ingrid G",  imageURL: "ingridg", address: "33 Union St.")

So I would like to get this result: (filtered AddressArray)
[
    Address(name: "John B",  imageURL: "johnb", address: "178 Main St."),
    Address(name: "Sara K",  imageURL: "sarak", address: "279 Maple Av.")
]

A: struct Address {
    var name: String
    var imageURL: String
    var address: String
}

let VIPArray = [["name": "John B"], ["name": "Sara K"]]

let AddressArray = [Address(name: "John B",  imageURL: "johnb", address: "178 Main St."),
                    Address(name: "Dave H",  imageURL: "daveh", address: "1011 Victoria St.."),
                    Address(name: "Sara K",  imageURL: "sarak", address: "279 Maple Av."),
                    Address(name: "Niles K", imageURL: "nilesk", address: "45 King St."),
                    Address(name: "Ingrid G",  imageURL: "ingridg", address: "33 Union St.")]

var filtered = [Address]()

for element in VIPArray {
    for address in AddressArray {
        if element["name"] == address.name {
            filtered.append(address)
        }
    }
}

for record in filtered {
    print(record)
}

OUTPUT:
Address(name: "John B", imageURL: "johnb", address: "178 Main St.")
Address(name: "Sara K", imageURL: "sarak", address: "279 Maple Av.")
Or:
let filtered: [Address] = AddressArray.filter { (address) -> Bool in
    for vip in VIPArray {
        if vip["name"] == address.name {
            return true
        }
    }
    return false
}

A: let VIPArray = [["name": "John B"], ["name": "Sara K"]]

struct Address {
    let name: String
    let imageURL: String
    let address: String
}

let addressArray = [Address(name: "John B",  imageURL: "johnb", address: "178 Main St."),
                    Address(name: "Dave H",  imageURL: "daveh", address: "1011 Victoria St.."),
                    Address(name: "Sara K",  imageURL: "sarak", address: "279 Maple Av."),
                    Address(name: "Niles K", imageURL: "nilesk", address: "45 King St."),
                    Address(name: "Ingrid G",  imageURL: "ingridg", address: "33 Union St.")]

let myVips = addressArray.filter() {VIPArray.contains(["name":$0.name])}

A: 1. You can simply use a for-in loop and filter to get the expected values:
    for VIP in VIPArray
    {
        let result = AddressArray.filter({ $0.name == VIP["name"] })
        print(result)
    }

2. Or you can use a combination of map and filter to get the expected values.
    let result = VIPArray.map { (VIP) -> Address? in
        if let address = AddressArray.filter({ $0.name == VIP["name"] }).first
        {
                return address
        }
        return nil
    }
    print(result)

Let me know if you still face any issues.

Maryland Advocates Achieve Legislative Wins
Thanks to our hardworking advocates in states like Maryland, AIM is leading the way to pass laws that improve the lives of those living with dementia and their caregivers. In Maryland's 2022 legislative session, advocates worked to develop, introduce and grow support for several bills that became laws. These laws will build Alzheimer's awareness, improve the quality of care statewide, and help build out the public health infrastructure to help Marylanders impacted by Alzheimer's and other dementia.
Maryland's Fiscal Year 2023 Budget
Maryland's Fiscal Year 2023 budget includes dedicated funding for Alzheimer's and other dementia for the first time in state history. The $3.5 million commitment, championed by AIM advocates and the General Assembly and supported by Governor Hogan, is an extraordinary step to help the over 110,000 Marylanders living with dementia and their caregivers.
The Dementia Services Act of 2022 (SB 27/HB 166)
Thanks in part to the efforts of AIM's dedicated volunteer advocates, the Dementia Services Act was signed into law. The law requires the establishment of a full-time Director of Dementia Services Coordination at the Maryland Department of Health. The position will be responsible for the coordination of services affecting Marylanders with dementia and their caregivers and families. In addition, it makes Maryland's Virginia I. Jones Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias Council permanent and requires an Alzheimer's State Plan to be issued every five years.
Maryland Health Care Commission — Assisted Living Programs — Study (HB 636/SB 531)
Following a campaign by AIM advocates, this legislation was passed into law, requiring the Maryland Health Care Commission to conduct a study to understand how we can elevate the quality of care provided by our state's 1,285 assisted living facilities with nine or fewer beds. As we seek to learn from the disproportionate impact the pandemic has had on our long-term care facilities, this study, which will include a focus on people living with dementia, will provide recommendations to help Maryland's seniors in need.
State Board of Examiners of Nursing Home Administrators — Renaming and Licensure of Assisted Living Managers (HB 1034/SB 270)
This legislation was also enacted into law thanks in part to the hard work of our advocates. This establishes a licensing and regulatory system for assisted living managers under the Board of Long-Term Care Administrators, and requires all assisted living facilities to have a licensed manager. This new law will set an important standard of care across all facilities.
Thank you to Maryland's tireless advocates and bipartisan state champions for your dedication to advancing policies that support Marylanders living with Alzheimer's and other dementia.
Be a Champion in the Fight to End Alzheimer's
Our voices are stronger together. Help AIM advance legislation to improve the lives of people impacted by Alzheimer's and all other dementia.
Share your story with elected officials
AIM is working with state lawmakers to implement policies to improve the lives of people living with Alzheimer's and other dementia, and their caregivers. Explore the issues.

Home / College Football / Bielema Hopes He Has Arkansas Football Heading In Right Direction

Bielema Hopes He Has Arkansas Football Heading In Right Direction
Cierra Clark July 13, 2016	College Football, Feature Sports News 360 Views
SEC Football Media Days continued today in Birmingham, Alabama and Arkansas coach Bret Bielema spoke about his team and the upcoming 2016 season. This will be Bielema's fourth year with the Razorbacks after last season posting an 8-5 record and a 5-3 record in the SEC, a slight improvement from a 7-6 record and going 2-6 in the league the year before.
This year could also be considered a "rebuilding year." Five players were lost to the 2016 NFL Draft this past season including their starting quarterback Brandon Allen, running back Alex Collins, and tight end Hunter Henry. There are several who are in the running to be Allen's replacement including his younger brother, junior Austin Allen, along with Ty Storey, Rafe Peavey, and Cole Kelly. Kelly a 6″7″ 256 pound true freshman from Lafayette, Louisiana has some high expectations this season from Bielema and his teammates.
Bielema has also been impressed with the freshmen running backs Revwah Whaley and TJ Hammands.
The Razorback defense has quite a few veterans with nine starters returning. Senior Deatrich Wise led the SEC with eight sacks in conference play this past fall. Senior Brooks Ellis was ninth in the conference with 102 tackles.
The Razorbacks, had a rough start to the season with three straight losses starting with their second game of the season. They were defeated by Toledo, Texas Tech, and Texas A&M at the beginning of the season. Bielema knows that the Razorbacks can finish strong but he does not want those consecutive early season losses to happen again.
Another thing Bielema spoke on was players entering the draft earlier than needed. Bielema believes the NFL should allow players to test the NFL Draft waters and still have an option to return back to school, similar to college basketball. With football it would be a little different because of the national championship in January and being unsure of what scholarships would be available. Bielema had a solution for that, he proposes somewhat of a combine before the NFL scouting combine in January. It would be a few weeks after the national championship game, before players are invited to the official scouting combine.
The Razorbacks kick off their first game of the season at home on September 3rd in Fayetteville against the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs.

'Renew animal sacrifices on Mount' says radical rabbi
Smooth Stone March 2, 2007
I have no opinion on this other than being somewhat influenced by my Orthodox friend who believes that the self-appointed Sanhedrin is bordering on sacrilege. I don't know if I agree with that either. Who appointed the first Sanhedrin 2000 years ago? From YnetNews:
Animal sacrifices should be renewed on the Temple Mount, a member of the radical Sanhedrin organization told Ynetnews. In ancient Israel and Judea, the Sanhedrin served as the highest court in the land, and was made up of 71 top judges. Now, a group of fringe rabbis say they have reformed the group, although the organization has received no recognition from Israel's official religious authorities. "In the Torah there are around 200 commandments dealing with animal sacrifices," said Rabbi Dov Stein, of the Sanhedrin organization. "The Torah of Israel demands animal sacrifices. When the people of Israel were in the Diaspora, it couldn't be done. But now, there is the supreme institution, the Sanhedrin, made up of experts, and it can be done. The new Sanhedrin, like the old, will educate the people of Israel on how to keep and safeguard the Torah."

Q: preg_replace cutting off leading digit I can get along with regex when needed, but for some reason I am in the dark trying to figure out why preg_replace cuts off leading digit or space.
Example:
$phone = '00 385 1234567';
$sig = 'abcd  efgh';
$text = preg_replace('/(]*id="phone".*)(.*?)(<\/span>)/smi', '$1'.$phone.'$3', $sig);

echo $text;

First 0 is missing in result, also if there is any digit or space (or maybe some other sign as well), but not if first is a character or sign + and others.
Can someone shed some light on this behaviour please?

This is a post tribute to Michael Jackson. I am not sure whether I am a fan of him or not, I think I am. I know about Michael Jackson when I was like 5 years old, daddy had a few CDs and VCDs of him and I watched it last time. I like his song, I like his dancing, I don't really about his appearance from black to white and his child molestation accused, it's weird but somehow he was and is still the King of Pop.
Look at his concert, there's like tenth of thousands of fans at every of his concert and I saw once before that some of his fan fainted at his concert. It's just incredible, his power, his attractions, everyone was like so crazy about him.
Mix FM is playing Michael Jackson's song for a whole day.
His death was so unexpected and shocking. I was going to school this morning and just when I arrived at school, the radio DJ announced his dead and I was shock by what I heard. I quickly checked the news through my phone and it's true. It's just kind of unbelievable. He was there in London few months back, looking good and not old, and he is gone now. He was supposed to have a concert in July in London but no one really expected his death at this time.
2 MJ's CDs at home.
When he announced his Final Curtain Calls concert, I was wondering how could he dance while he was ill, but he didn't look ill on any part of his physical outlook. He was just great.
Well, he is gone right now, physically, but he, will still always stay in our mind. He is just King of Pop and at this moment, I believe no one could replace his King of Pop title, yet.


A novel drug target has been discovered to fight against high rates of obesity and associated metabolic diseases in Australia.
As it stands, 2 in 3 adults in Australia are classified as being overweight or obese. A long-term study between researchers at the Centenary Institute and UNSW Sydney has led to the creation of a drug which targets an enzyme linked to insulin resistance - a key contributor of metabolic diseases, such as Type II diabetes.
The project has been a collaboration between the Centenary Institute's Associate Professor Anthony Don, UNSW's Metabolic research group and its leader Associate Professor Nigel Turner, and UNSW Professor Jonathan Morris' synthetic chemistry group. Together, they set out to create a drug that targeted enzymes within the Ceramide Synthase family, which produce lipid molecules believed to promote insulin resistance in skeletal muscle, as well as liver and fat tissue.
"We anticipated that targeting this enzyme would have insulin-sensitising, rather than anti-obesity effects. However, since obesity is a strong risk factor for many different diseases including cardiovascular disease and cancer, any new therapy in this space could have widespread benefits," says UNSW Associate Professor Nigel Turner.
While the study produced some unexpected results, it's the first time scientists have been able to develop a drug that successfully targets a specific Ceramide Synthase enzyme in metabolic disease, making it a significant advancement in the understanding and prevention of a range of chronic health conditions.
"From here, I would like to develop drugs which target both the Ceramide Synthase 1 and 6 enzymes together, and see whether it produces a much stronger anti-obesity and insulin sensitising response. Although these drugs need more work before they are suitable for use in the clinic, our work so far has been a very important step in that direction," says Centenary Institute's Associate Professor Anthony Don.
The new framework enables professionals to plot foods, meals, diets and dietary patterns together based on nutrient composition.
Global obesity problem may be curbed if authorities implement taxes based on a particular dose of an ingredient, like sugar or calories.
Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto launched a new campaign against rising obesity and diabetes rates in the country, asking his citizens to walk more, use stairs and exercise one hour every day.


In Ramallah, in July, a four-day event entitled 'Designing Civic Encounter' took place. Initiated by online platform ArtTerritories, it was envisioned as a 'series of interventions engaging in existing and potential forms of urban development and public culture' and entailed a two-day symposium encouraging discussion and debate on the subject of Ramallah's urban planning, architecture and development; a bus tour through and around Ramallah; and a day-long workshop with social architect Teddy Cruz.
Ramallah's architectural landscape has changed dramatically since the signing of the Oslo Accords in 1993, in part due to a building boom bolstered by foreign investment. In this text for Ibraaz, Yazid Anani, from the Department of Architecture at Birzeit University, corrals the thoughts of some of his students on the many themes that emerged from 'Designing Civic Encounter': their dissatisfaction with Ramallah's neoliberal urban development, which is creating a series of gated and atomized communities; the investment in 'starchitecture' in the Gulf States; and other spatial issues relating to the present-day geography of the Palestinian territories.
A group of six third-year students from the Department of Architecture at Birzeit University dropped by for a visit. I opened the door of my apartment and welcomed them in. Some of them seemed rather shy of me, their teacher. Hiba, Ahmad, Bissan, Mohammad, Fayeq and Diala went straight to the balcony, which occupies the heart of my apartment, while I prepared plum crumble in the kitchen.
I have spent an astonishing spring semester with these students, experimenting on the role of architecture in academia and its utilization for creating critical knowledge on the current spatial transformation of Ramallah. I also worked with them in discussion with Decolonizing Architecture, an art and architecture collective and a residency programme based in Beit Sahour, Palestine, on re-imagining the abandoned edifice of the Palestinian Parliament in Abu Dis, a village on the eastern outskirts of Jerusalem. This meeting was also an ideal opportunity not only to discuss their participation in 'Designing Civic Encounter' but also to talk about the details of an exhibition we are planning, called Re-Imagining the Palestinian Parliament Building, based on their studio work in my design course. The exhibit will be located at the Khalil Sakakini Cultural Centre in November this year.
Yazid Anani, Betunia at Night, 2011.
Out on the balcony, they were intrigued by the view and gazed at the sprawling and contradictory landscape of Betunia in the twilight. The grotesque, massive apartment buildings mounted by black water tanks were vanishing before their eyes, only to be replaced by glittering lights beneath the encroaching veil of the night, my balcony view transforming into a glamorous Mulholland Drive.
We grabbed our drinks and the now ready plum crumble and settled around my square dining table in what resembled a Stammtisch set-up, and began a discussion about their experiences of 'Designing Civic Encounter'.
Mohammad, a very curious student from Jenin, initiated the discussion by giving his first impressions of the event.
'The feeling I got when I first arrived was surprise at the profusion of foreigners who were interested in the subject of the symposium', he began.
Ahmad, a very sharp student, seemed to be impatiently drifting away from Mohammad's prologue. Ahmad's parents live in Abu Dhabi but he was sent back to the West Bank to study architecture. He is known for his persistent dissatisfaction with the ongoing urban development in Ramallah. Part of his family still lives in Nablus but I guess he is more content living alone in Birzeit, away from the suffocating conservatism of Nablus' families and the complex social structure of the city. He took the mantle from Mohammad.
'We were basically discussing Ramallah in ArtTerritories' symposium, and the transformation of space in the last decade, thinking about spatial change as a reflection of Palestinian political doctrine, which is consciously adopting neoliberal policies as a key to peace to prove to the world that Palestinians are capable of reigning their own state', Ahmad began.
At that point Hiba, a dancer at Wishah Popular Dance Troupe and a strong, confident personality who attended my design course last semester on the 'Re-Imagination of the Palestinian Parliament Building', decided to respond to Ahmad's question.
Yazid Anani, Diplomats Housing Project,, 2011.
Hiba's voice as she delivered her speech was full of passion and anger, though she seemed to calm down as she sipped her orange juice.
'Going back to Ahmad's question: why Ramallah as a study case for the symposium of ArtTerritories?' Bissan said suddenly, hijacking the conversation.
Bissan is an attractive young woman from Ramallah. Her family is from the village of Sarris, one of the 418 Palestinian villages destroyed in 1948, which used to be located in the vicinity of Jerusalem on the historic road to Jaffa. The name of one of her uncles' bookshops in Ramallah is 'Sarrisi' - meaning, in Arabic, 'the person who originates from the village of Sarris' - in commemoration of the family's destroyed home village. Her father is the civil engineer who built my apartment building, which is located in one of the relatively new suburbs of Ramallah known as al-Tireh.
'I think we also have to look at other factors such as Ramallah becoming the de facto capital replacing Jerusalem and stripping it of its political, historical and institutional significance', Bissan said.
'Arafat introduced Ramallah as a surrogate capital when he was besieged in 2002, leaving Jerusalem empty and hollow and reducing it to visual cultural representations such as the Dome of the Rock, the historic city walls and the church of the Holy Sepulchre. Our generation is banned from entering the city and we identify Jerusalem only through these abstract symbolic visual items. We don't know anything about the rich social history of the city and its vivid cultural production. There is an alarming disconnection from our geography, especially for those trapped in the bubble of Ramallah with no reason to leave it or even know about any other place in Palestine,' she finished.
I felt goose-bumps forming on the back of my neck. I was very proud of the way my students were questioning architecture from a socio-political standpoint and appraising society through its architectural and spatial production. It is quite difficult for architecture students to take such a route - not least because the Department of Architecture is part of the Engineering Faculty, where the discipline of architecture is seen as pure applied mathematics and physics, regulated through building codes and represented via technical drawing. I don't believe any more in the unilateralist common trajectory of architectural education as a utilitarian discipline with practical and technical ends. It is necessary to think of architecture as critical knowledge and as a lens through which to investigate societies and read the conditions of their spatial production.
Yazid Anani, Sunset from my Balcony, 2011.
'I can totally relate to Adania's research, however I see another important dimension that I want to highlight now. Since the Israeli closure policy of 2002, we have been bounded and besieged in our own cities, perplexed and confused, trying to cut all of our affiliations with other cities and learning to live self-sufficiently. This has created what you taught us last semester, Seligman's 'learned helplessness'! We became like lab mice, trapped in our cities, confused by the inconsistency of form, location, temporality and permeability of the seizure structures. Even after the easing of check-points in recent years, we are left like mice slowly dying from hunger in their cages; helpless, frustrated and confused by the irrational and random mechanical barricades that keep us stuck in this maze. I have elderly relatives who refuse to leave Ramallah to visit family and friends in other cities in the West Bank. Even when they realize that there are no check-points, they decline to get across out of helplessness. I guess we're all suffering somehow from this collective psychological syndrome'.
Yazid Anani, Betunia from my Balcony, 2011.
I remembered, at that moment, how Vera Tamari and I had found it very difficult to convince local artists from Ramallah to apply for the open call of the 3rd edition of Cities Exhibition this year, which takes Nablus as a site for investigation. Many artists complained that Nablus is too far and they would have preferred to stay in Ramallah rather than explore the rich social history and diverse culture of another Palestinian city. It struck me then that the policies of fragmentation indoctrinated by the Israeli occupation have gone beyond the fragmentation of nation, Fatah and Hamas, Gaza and West Bank, exile and 1948; it has transformed our cities into gated communities completely disconnected from one another.
Diala, who up till then had been silent, decided to join in the argument. She is from Bethlehem; her parents made their own grand tour, moving from Germany, to Libya, Iraq and then back to Palestine, where she was born and raised. She also worked together with Fayeq last semester on the project 'Reimagining the Palestinian Parliament Building'. They came up with the idea to divide the existing building into a 3D grid and then flip all the parts inside out so that the interior replaces exterior and the skeleton replaces the skin.
'What I know is that less than one per cent of the original Ramallah families still live in the city. Most of them left to go to the United States during the last century', she began. 'Some settled there as early as 1916, working in grocery and other businesses. Yet there remains this sense of insecurity among Ramallah's 99 per cent of 'unoriginal' inhabitants, centred around the question of who is an original and who is not. Modern Ramallah is made and remade by the perpetual influx of the 'unoriginals', whether refugees, migrants or returnees. The unplanned boom of the late 1990s following the arrival of the Palestinian Authority caused the first mutation to the city. The building spree's jingle was seemingly: 'Everyone can build anything, everywhere!' Amman has become a raw model to most of the architects I know. It might be that our limited exposure in Palestine means that we have only Amman as the garden from which to draw inspiration. The Gulf has also become the dream of many students and graduates. With Zaha Hadid's edifices filling the place, which I personally see as sculptured vases, most of the students at the department want to create similar structures in Ramallah to complete the anomaly. I think we want the grandeur that these monuments represent and that we don't currently have, and the freedom of expression that they would suggest. Yet we are still entangled in complex, conflicting identities that we're still trying to comprehend and evade at the same time, because it reminds us of defeat and failure. Maybe we love Zaha's vases because we want to escape the past and its visual cultural representation and familiarity. We want the new and the unfamiliar'.
Yazid Anani, Billboards Announcing New Housing Projects, 2011.
A long discussion took place. I heard nearly the same thing from all of them, relating to the hassle involved in crossing three consecutive authorities - Palestinian Authority, State of Israel and the Kingdom of Jordan - located along a one kilometre border, where people must succumb three times to almost identical rituals of passport control, security check, luggage X-ray check, metal detectors, interrogations and customs, just to leave the country. If one is lucky, and the border not horribly congested, this whole process can take four hours. People often wonder why these three border points can't join forces, instead of engaging in this show of power - especially when most people are already aware of the intelligence sharing that goes on between the three, in addition to other known and unknown treaties. People reach Amman totally drained and frustrated before they take their flights elsewhere. Amman becomes a subliminal reminder of the hell they'll once again have to suffer in order to get back home. I personally don't hate Amman but I have always felt despair when flying back home from Europe and seeing Ramallah from the airplane window, only to have to then land at Queen Alia Airport, have a layover in Amman and wait until the next morning for the border to open in order to get back home.
We spent another couple of hours discussing other issues, such as the Arab Spring, resistance, the future and neo-colonialism, all of which branched out of the topics and incidents that came up in the symposium.
The students left me with a feeling of urgency for a new Palestinian political leadership that uses the potential and energy of younger generations and that listens to the way they see their present and dream of their future. Building a Palestinian state is not just about building an economic and security infrastructure; it requires investing in the minds of young Palestinians, who will one day build a state based on an intelligent and critical political economy.
Yazid Anani, born in 1975, Ramallah, is an assistant professor at the Department of Architecture and Master Program in Urban Planning and Landscape at Birzeit University. His work and research interests are inclined towards issues in colonial and post-colonial spaces, as well as questions of culture, neoliberalism, architecture and power. He currently chairs the Academic Council of the International Art Academy Palestine and is active in several collectives and projects such as 'Decolonizing Architecture' and 'Ramallah Syndrome', and has curated several projects, including Palestinian Cities: Visual Contention and Ramallah - the fairest of them all?


Much like humans, dogs can suffer from hernias. An inguinal hernia is a condition in which the abdominal contents protrude through the inguinal canal or inguinal ring, an opening which occurs in the muscle wall in the groin area.
Inguinal hernia can occur in both dogs and cats. If you would like to learn how this type of hernia affects cats, please visit this page in the petMD health library.
Inguinal hernias may be uncomplicated or complicated. A complicated hernia is one in which contents of the abdominal cavity have passed through the opening and become entrapped.
In dogs, inguinal hernias may be acquired (not present at birth but developing later in life) or congenital (present at birth). Factors which predispose a dog to develop an inguinal hernia include trauma, obesity, and pregnancy.
Most inguinal hernias are uncomplicated and cause no symptoms other than a swelling in the groin area. However, if contents from the abdominal cavity (such as the bladder, a loop of intestines or the uterus) pass through the opening and become entrapped there, the situation can become life-threatening.
Inguinal hernias can usually be diagnosed by finding the swelling caused by the hernia on a physical examination. However, sometimes contrast radiographs (X-rays) or an abdominal ultrasound are needed to determine which abdominal contents, if any, are entrapped.

Kale Brassica oleracea Acephala group. Borewort, Colewort, Collards.
Kale is a highly productive, reliable and resilient primitive form of cabbage that produces great curly greens over a long period. One those vegetables that during winter you'll be glad you planted as it offers up wave after wave of nutritious leaves ideal for steaming and stir-frying at a time when lush leaves can otherwise be scarce. Ounce for ounce, Kale has more than 15 times the vitamin C content of carrots. Like other brassicas – cabbage, broccoli, brussels sprout - It is also a good source of iron. The foliage is not only nutritious and delicious but eye-catching too which sees it often planted in flower beds for decoration. Start your kids eating kale as young as possible to broaden their palettes. Tender raw stems are popular with my boys who help themselves whilst out in the garden.
Companions Corn, peas, broad bean, runner bean, bush bean.
Cavolo nero also known as 'tree cabbage' or 'palm tree cabbage' this is an incredibly productive heirloom variety. The stem grows upwards and produces very dark green elongated leaves that look like palm fronds. Plants can reach up to 6 feet in height and are productive for up 6 months and sometimes longer.
Red Russian an heirloom variety with ragged-looking blue green leaves. When it gets cold, the stems and leaf veins turn a striking red hue. Very sweet and succulent.
Winterbor a very frost hardy hybrid variety with lush, curled green leaves that are particularly tender and juicy after a frost.
Squire an heirloom variety that produces heavy crops of very curly, bluish green laves. Especially good for growing through winter.
Kale can be grown all year round thanks to its ability to handle heat and humidity as well as winter cold and frosts. It performs best when sown from late winter into spring – Aug to Nov (optimum time in cooler areas) – and autumn – Mar – Jun.
Kale is not too fussy and can grow in full sun as well as partial shade. Plants grow to around knee height depending on soil and variety. 'Cavolo nero' or 'Walking stick cabbage' can grow close to head height.
Like cabbages, Kale is a touch on the greedy side and grows best in rich, well-composted soil that does not hold onto moisture for more than say half a day. Ideally, plant it where peas or beans have previously grown so that it can take advantage of all the nitrogen that has been 'fixed' into the soil. Soil should be fairly firm so pat down with a rake after digging. This helps them establish strong roots to support a head of hefty foliage.
Seed can be sown directly in beds if soil has been well-prepared, sow seeds a finger tip deep and thin them down to about a forearm apart as they sprout and form leaves.
If sowing in wetter months you might want to sow seeds a finger deep in trays or punnets filled with seed compost and then plant out when seedlings are about a finger length in height (this helps plants get off to a good start and often avoids dramatic losses through slug attack).
Seedlings should be planted out when they have six or so leaves and look well-rooted and stable in their punnets. To test this, they should stand rather then flop over when you brush the back of your hand against them. Allow about a forearm by a forearm's space on the surface of your bed for each seedling (check seed packets or seedling labels as spacing does differ between varieties). Use two fingers or a trowel to make a small hole that is deep enough for the soil to envelope the seedling's stem to the point where the bottom set of leaves are attached to it. Gently firm the soil around each of your seedlings to ensure good contact with roots.
Use a juice bottle cloche if planting in early spring and mulch around your seedlings. I use a hoe to gently keep those early spring weeds down – be careful not to go too deep or too close to your kale plants or you might damage roots. In dry weather it is important to see that your plants get at least a quarter of a watering can every two days. Once foliage starts to crowd the stems and thicken up you can get out your liquid feeds – something with a good dose of nitrogen in it like liquid seaweed or worm juice is good. Give your plants a watering can of diluted feed every two weeks to boost growth.
Ensure you firm soil and draw earth up around your seedlings as the stems start to swell – this helps to keep roots strong and firm. Keep mulching to maintain good soil moisture throughout the growing period.
If you see evidence of attack then go on a slug hunt and utilize slug control methods. Cabbage white butterflies are the number 1 pest. You can protect your brassicas (cabbages, cauliflowers, broccoli, kale, kohlrabi, cavolo nero) with fine mesh to stop the butterflies laying their eggs on the lush leaves (it's the caterpillars that do all the damage) or you can arm your kids with badminton rackets and unleash them for a on spot of mobile target practice. Remove any visible caterpillars by hand and feed to garden birds or chickens. Caterpillars can also be deterred by treating leaves with Chilli spray or by giving them a dusting with household flour.
Kale is also susceptible to attacks from aphids. Treat any visible infestations with Neem oil, Garlic oil spray or Tomato leaf spray.
You can start pulling your first leaves from kale within 8 weeks of planting and if you pick regularly the harvest on a single plant can continue for more than a year.
We let the odd 'Cavolo nero' plant flower and go to seed and enjoy discovering self-sown plants as they pop up here and there in the garden. The flowers also attract honey bees and other pollinating insects. Ladybugs and parasitic wasps are also drawn to flowering brassicas and soon get to work ridding the leaves of nearby of pests such as aphids.

A: In this site you will see all formats that Android supports;
I don't think it is possible to play a song, and record it if you use the standard Android library. You need a specific library.

Home/World/Fauci: There could be 300,000 to 400,000 deaths from Covid unless precautions are taken
Fauci: There could be 300,000 to 400,000 deaths from Covid unless precautions are taken
Harold Manning October 7, 2020
Fauci added that the vaccine will not be widely available until this summer or fall. This schedule goes along with the prediction By CDC director Robert Redfield, who warned the Senate Appropriations Committee last month that it would take about six to nine months for the public to be vaccinated once a vaccine is approved.
Moncef Al-Salawi, the scientific leader of the government program, is rushing to develop the vaccine, Wrote In August, 300 million doses of vaccine could be available by the middle of next year.
Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, also said during the New Yorker festival On Monday, normal life may not resume until the end of 2021 due to vaccine deployment challenges.
Speaking at the AU, Fauci also addressed the public's recent doubts about him. Although several polls over the summer found overwhelming bipartisan confidence in the infectious disease expert, belief in him has since begun. WaningEspecially among Republicans.
Fauci said, "Maybe 50 percent of you will hate me because you think I'm trying to destroy the country, but listen to me for six weeks or so, and do what I say, and you'll see the numbers go down." Depending to the University.

Q: jQuery Datatable reload data - json to columns I have table that first time is server - side rendered. I want on some click event refresh data in table.
Problem is how to "bind" specific json object propertie to specific column. I receive json object with array of objects where only some of properties are interesting me.
I want
Table column -- json object propertie
 ID -- id
 Name -- name + surname
 Cooperation -- scCooperationCollection
 Skills -- scSkillsCollection
 Experience -- workExperience
HTML table: http://pastebin.com/b5yRWsGe
JS reload table: http://pastebin.com/GzS8tpV6
JSON example : http://pastebin.com/AyBSrSui

A: See columns.data or columns.render options on how to bind source data to table columns or produce custom content for a cell.
You can access source data properties using dotted notation in columns.data or even join arrays with [] notation. For more complex data rendering like joining two fields, use columns.render instead.
For example:
var table = $('#example').DataTable({
    ajax: {
       url: 'https://api.myjson.com/bins/3x4ql',
       dataSrc: 'aaData'
    },
    columns: [
        { data: "id" },
        {
            data: null,
            render: function(data, type, full, meta){
               return full['name'] + ' ' + full['surname'];
            }
        },
        { data: "scCooperationCollection[,].scFields.name" },
        { data: "scSkillsCollection[,].scFields.name" },
        { data: "workExperience" }
    ]
});

See this jsFiddle for code and demonstration.

A: You can navigate through the desired properties in returned json object and tie up same to your table something like below:
table.on( 'xhr', function () {
    var json = table.ajax.json();
    var obj = JSON.parse(json)
    var tableJson = {"ID":obj.aaData[0].id};
    console.log(json);
} );


From the Marne Canal to the Rhine, a distance of 378 km, you will have plenty of time to (re)discover the beauties of Alsace and Lorraine aboard your Pénichette®. It's culture and nature all the way from Strasbourg to Nancy.
From the Lutzelbourg Locaboat base, you can choose from various different routes. Obviously you won't want to miss Strasbourg, so you can try a flammekueche (cheese, onion and bacon tart) amongst the half-timbered houses, and admire the extraordinary panoramic view over the Vosges and the Black Forest from the steeple of its imposing cathedral. History fans will also want to stop at Saverne to visit the château of the Rohan family. From Lutzelbourg, you could decide to cruise along the Sarre Canal towards Germany and Saarbrücken or head for the Moselle canal. That way you could explore Nancy and try a box of Bergamotes, those delicate sweets that taste of Earl Grey tea, in the wonderful Place Stanislas. Then you could glide along towards Pont-à-Mousson and Metz.
On your way along the Marne-Rhine canal, you will pass through the famous Saint-Louis Arzviller inclined plane. This was closed in the summer of 2013 because of a technical problem, so boating on the canal was completely stopped. But it will be open again for everyone to enjoy from 2 May 2014. This inclined plane is a kind of lift for boats that works in a similar way to a funicular railway. It was first put into service in 1969 to replace the 17 locks, which had been very difficult to negotiate. It's the only structure of its kind in Europe and the most frequently visited technological attraction in the region, with 140,000 visitors a year! It has to be said that travelling up the lift is a feeling you won't forget in a hurry. To help you get over the excitement, you could go and dive headfirst into the beautiful Gondrexange Lake, whose history goes back to the middle ages.

Mural obejmuje ślepą ścianę budynku. Na pierwszym piętrze w namalowanym oknie siedzą dwaj esperantyści, przyjaciele Ludwika –  Jakub Szapiro i Abraham Zbar. Ten fragment powstał przez wierne odwzorowanie w dużej skali archiwalnego zdjęcie przedstawiające tych dwóch mężczyzn. Na drugim piętrze, na namalowanym balkonie stoi Ludwik Zamenhof, a na trzecim na takim balkonie stoją współcześni białostocczanie. Trzymają w rękach baloniki w kolorach kół olimpijskich, co symbolizuje porozumienie wszystkich narodów dzięki językowi esperanto.

Promocja miasta
W 2017 roku Urząd Miejski w Białymstoku w ramach promocji miasta i przypadającej setnej rocznicy śmierci Zamenhofa wykorzystał reprodukcję muralu do przygotowania puzzli (36 i 121 elementów) oraz koszulek. Na tłach czarnym i zielonym umieszczono na nich reprodukcje obrazów z muralu oraz esperancki napis: Bialistoko – la lulilo de Esperanto (Białystok – kolebką Esperanto).

New York Regulation of Consumer Reporting Agencies Following Data Breaches
By Kim Phan on December 14, 2017
Posted in Credit Reports, Fair Credit, Identity Theft, Privacy, State CFS Monitor, State Enforcement
This week, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo issued a press release directing the New York Department of State to issue a new regulation impacting consumer reporting agencies. The new regulation was adopted on an emergency basis and went into immediate effect in order to protect consumers from identity theft and other potential economic harms that may arise following a data breach.
The regulation requires consumer reporting agencies to:
Identify dedicated points of contact for the Division of Consumer Protection to obtain information to assist New York consumers in the event of a data breach;
Respond within 10 days to information requests made on behalf of consumers by the Division of Consumer Protection;
File a form with certain information to the Division of Consumer Protection, including all fees associated with the purchase or use of products and services marketed as identity theft protection products as well as a listing and description of all business affiliations and contractual relationships with any other entities relating to the provision of any identity theft prevention or mitigation products or services; and
In any advertisements or other promotional materials, disclose any and all fees associated with the purchase or use of proprietary products offered to consumers for the prevention of identity theft, including, if offered on a trial basis, any and all fees charged for its purchase or use after the trial period and the requisites of cancellation of such continued use.
The protections appear targeted to address alleged abuses by the consumer reporting industry following the recent Equifax data breach. Cuomo also announced that the Division of Consumer Protection will be issuing a demand letter to Equifax for information to assess the damage and risk of identity theft to New York State consumers resulting from the data breach.
Cuomo did not address the status of previously announced proposed regulations of the consumer credit reporting agencies by the New York Department of Financial Services.

Ensuring that your children have quick access to healthy snacks is vital in knowing that they're gaining the proper nutrition throughout the day. Some ways to do this are by pre-slicing fruit or vegetables so that they have easy access to it throughout the day. Also be sure to carry non-perishable items that have wholesome nutritional content on you at all times, just in case they wind up getting hungry and needing a snack while you're out and about.
A good way to ensure healthy snacking is to create your own trail mix, which can be stored in baggies for easy grab and go eating.
Cut up fruit ahead of time, to create another healthy option for kids.
Some dense, delicious carbs that pack in the nutrients invlude, bananas, oranges and raisins.


Defense officials approved a DHS request for additional support to upgrade border fencing and help with surveillance.
The Pentagon is extending the military's mission at the U.S.-Mexico border through the end of September.
In a statement Monday, Defense officials said the Pentagon approved a Department of Homeland Security request for additional support to upgrade about 160 miles of fencing and help with border surveillance.
As Newsy previously reported, the Department of Defense is not affected by the partial government shutdown, and the cost of any fence construction would reportedly come out of the Pentagon's annual budget.
The Trump administration deployed thousands of active-duty troops to the border late last year in response to migrants who were traveling north through Mexico at the time.
Prior to the Pentagon's most recent mission extension, the roughly 2,300 troops who are still at the southern border were scheduled to remain there until the end of January.
It's currently unclear how extending the mission until September will affect the number of troops deployed to the border. But it's up to the Pentagon to decide if any troops it deploys will be active-duty or members of the National Guard.

Q: How specific should exception classes be? As a rule I try to avoid throwing instances of Exception, because this doesn't convey much information about what went wrong.
But I'm finding that I'm getting a fair number of empty Exception classes, which look like this...
class DataNotFoundException extends Exception {
   // just a tagging class
}

So functionally the class is identical to Exception. The only functional significance is I can now do this...
try {
    ... some code which throws exceptions ...
} catch (DataNotFoundException $dnfe) {
    ... do stuff ...
} catch (OtherException $oe) {
    ... do other stuff ...
}

My question is, where is the balance between having a huge number of tiny Exception classes and just throwing instances of Exception. Does anyone have any guidelines for when to introduce a new Exception class?

A: You must always extend the Exception class when you have difference logic to handle exception. Look for php Spl library, by the way it contains some exception classes, so you don't need to define your own.

A: It's not a bad practice to include lots of specific exceptions, but only ones relevant and reproduce able.  If you choose to be very specific with them, it should go in a specific order, as well; going from very specific, to general.
try {}    catch (CryptographicException e)
{ ...doSomething }

catch (ArgumentOutOfBoundsException e)
{ ...doSomething }

catch (Exception e)
{ ...doSomething }

This being attributed to the processing of events, and if a general Exception is first, all others will be skipped.  Having specific exceptions before general ones will help in the idea that you acquire more information from them, as well.

Q: Java main class Here is my java code
public class Account {
    private String accName;
    private String accId;
    private int balance;

    Account()
    {
        System.out.println("This is an empty constructor.");
    }

    Account(String name)
    {
        accName = name;
        System.out.println("This is an valued constructor.");
    }

    public class main{

        public Static void main(String[] args)
        {
            Account a1 = new Account("raff");
        }
    }
}

cmd says ' "(identifier)" expected
public Static void main(String[] args)'
I can't get the problem yet......

A: You have several problems there:

*

*public class within public class

*main shouldn't be a class there at all

*"Static", a mispelling of the static keyword

Probably this is how you meant to write that:
public class Account {
    private String accName;
    private String accId;
    private int balance;

    Account() {
        System.out.println("This is an empty constructor.");
    }

    Account(String name) {
        accName = name;
        System.out.println("This is an valued constructor.");
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Account a1 = new Account("raff");
    }
}

A: The static keyword, like all other Java keywords, should be written in lowercase:
public static void main(String[] args) {

Il pallone da pallanuoto è un pallone di forma sferica utilizzato principalmente nella pallanuoto e negli sport da essa derivata, come la canoa polo, il surf polo, la beach waterpolo e l'inner tube water polo. Il pallone durante la sua evoluzione è variato in materiale, dimensione e colori. I palloni moderni sono caratterizzati dal tipico colore giallo e dalla ruvidità della superficie che permette una presa salda (grip) con un'unica mano, nonostante le sue grandi dimensioni.

Ad esso è legato l'origine del termine water polo della lingua inglese, il quale deriva dalla pronuncia inglese della parola palla in lingua balti, pulu.

Storia

La pallanuoto originaria, risalente alla fine del diciannovesimo secolo, utilizzava una piccola palla di gomma, solitamente della dimensione di circa dieci centimetri. Questa fu poi sostituita da un pallone da calcio, che permetteva, grazie alla sua proprietà di galleggiamento, di nuotare con la palla. Ma anche quest'ultimo fu cambiato a causa dell'eccessivo peso raggiunto quando il cuoio assorbiva l'acqua, e fu sostituito nel 1936 da un pallone progettato da James R. Smith, allenatore di pallanuoto e autore di diversi libri sulla meccanica della pallanuoto. Il pallone, originariamente di color rosso, aveva una camera d'aria gonfiabile e un rivestimento in tessuto di gomma. Successivamente, nel 1948, il colore passò da rosso a giallo, in quanto ritenuto più visibile per gli spettatori. Diventò il pallone ufficiale FINA e pallone olimpico nel 1956.

Nella prima metà del 2005 la FINA ha permesso un cambiamento del design standard dei palloni, consentendo di inserire una striscia colorata (blu, verde, rossa, nera o gialla) tra le due tipiche fasce gialle.
La norma attuale prevede che il pallone da pallanuoto debba essere giallo con le fasce nere, ma la nuova formulazione consentirà di inserire pannelli colorati.

Per i Campionati mondiali di Roma 2009 la Mikasa produce un nuovo pallone, il Mikasa W6000W, con un design particolare ed innovativo. Oltre al classico colore giallo sono presenti delle fasce non regolari, identificate come design ad onde, blu e rosa. I materiali utilizzati sono la gomma ed il nylon. Ma, pur dovendo rappresentare un'evoluzione del pallone di pallanuoto, il nuovo pallone della Mikasa viene fortemente criticato da alcuni giocatori. Tra questi Samir Barać, pallanuotista della nazionale croata, che lo paragona all'Adidas Jabulani, pallone da calcio che venne criticato per le strane traiettorie che assumeva. Il pallanuotista croato parlando del Mikasa W6000W afferma:

Caratteristiche

Il pallone da pallanuoto pesa 400-450 grammi ed è gonfiato a una pressione relativa di 90-97 kPa (13-14 psi) per gli uomini e 83-90 kPa (12-13 psi) per le donne. La circonferenza dei palloni è di 68-71 cm per gli uomini e di 65–67 cm per le donne.

We've spent the last few months working to expand coverage of Merlin, and we've just released a new bird pack for the Yucatan Peninsula. Research at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology repeatedly points to the Yucatan Peninsula as a vital wintering ground for many of our favorite breeding birds in the United States. It's also home to many dazzling birds unique to the Neotropics. Merlin has been fully translated in Spanish and we will soon release bird packs to cover all of Mexico thanks to our collaboration with CONABIO.
The Yucatan pack is available for download today in the Merlin app for Android and iOS devices.
Dream Jobs with the Cornell Lab!
Are you passionate about bird conservation? Check out our job openings for an iOS developer for the eBird and Merlin mobile apps, a software engineer to work with eBird, Birds of North America Online, and Neotropical Birds, and a software engineer to help expand the Macaulay Library collections. View all current job openings.
A top request we've received from Android users is the option to store Bird Packs on SD cards. With the latest 1.2.6 release, this ability is now available through the Settings screen in Merlin. SD storage of packs is a major change in how Merlin data are stored on your phone. If you are running into any problems after upgrading, please delete Merlin and reinstall the latest version from the Play Store.
The Macaulay Library content team is working hard on more packs for Mexico and elsewhere in Latin America, and the Merlin developers busy as well. We know many of you would love to see a list of birds you have identified, and more ways to discover new birds in your area. These features are our top priority now, and we hope to have something to share soon. Have a suggestion? Send us an email!
The magic of the Photo ID tool comes from the 2.5 million bird photos that eBird users have submitted with their checklists. You can help us expand this amazing tool to new areas, simply by drawing boxes around birds. Each box improves our computer vision algorithms—boosting the accuracy of the Photo ID tools. Who doesn't like to view cool bird photos and contribute to cutting-edge research at the same time? Help us out!
We are grateful to all the photographers who have contributed to the Macaulay Library and whose images are featured above.
Si tu teléfono móvil está en español, Merlin ahora está completamente traducido para ti. Además, aún puedes elegir el lenguaje que prefieras para los nombres de las aves en las preferencias de configuración de Merlin.
If your device is set to Spanish, Merlin is now completely translated for you. Common names can also be changed to Spanish and Portuguese from the Merlin settings screen.
Swipe down on the iPhone home screen and type a bird's name to get a quick summary of that species, and then tap on it to jump straight to that bird in Merlin!
