Q: django-pyodbc-azure SQL Server Parameter Limitation Django: 1.11
I am using django-pyodbc-azure as my Django backend. It is connecting to SQL Server 2012. SQL Server has a limit of 2,100 parameters. When I attempt to use prefetch_related on a queryset that will return more than 2,100 results...
def object_search_list(request):
    objects = MyModel.objects.filter(some_field='filter value').select_related('another_field').prefetch_related('a_third_field')
    print(objects)
    return render(request, 'objects/object_list.html', {'objects':objects})

...this error is returned:
Exception Value: ('07002', '[07002] [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 11.0]COUNT field incorrect or syntax error (0) (SQLExecDirectW)')

It points to the pyodbc backend used by django-pyodbc-azure. When looking at the features (https://github.com/michiya/django-pyodbc-azure/blob/azure-2.1/sql_server/pyodbc/features.py), there is no max_query_params set. I attempted to manually add max_query_params = 2100. This resulted in the same error. Setting that value to 2000 and 1000 resulted in the same error also.
How do I adjust django-pyodbc-azure to automatically handle this SQL Server limitation?
The Oracle backend for Django has a feature like this: https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/db/backends/oracle/features.py
UPDATE:
I realized that the max_query_params name was new to Django 2.0. Therefore, I tried the max_limit_in_size to match Django 1.11. Is it simply that django-pyodbc-azure does not support controlling parameter counts and the base.py overrides Django's default base.py?
UPDATE 2:
I upgraded to Django 2.1 and upgraded django-pyodbc-azure to match. I then edited features.py to add max_query_params = 2000 as a feature. The other place where max_query_params appears in Django native backends is operations.py in this function (Oracle example):
def bulk_batch_size(self, fields, objs):
    """Oracle restricts the number of parameters in a query."""
    if fields:
        return self.connection.features.max_query_params // len(fields)
    return len(objs)

django-pyodbc-azure has this function also, and it looks like this:
def bulk_batch_size(self, fields, objs):
    """
    Returns the maximum allowed batch size for the backend. The fields
    are the fields going to be inserted in the batch, the objs contains
    all the objects to be inserted.
    """
    objs_len, fields_len, max_row_values = len(objs), len(fields), 1000
    if (objs_len * fields_len) <= max_row_values:
        size = objs_len
    else:
        size = max_row_values // fields_len
    return size

It seems like it would already take care of batching with max_row_values set to 1000. However, the same error persists. I also tried changing the 1000 to max_query_params to no avail.
Here's the full traceback:

A: It doesn't look like it has been added to django-pyodbc-azure:
https://github.com/michiya/django-pyodbc-azure/blob/azure-2.1/sql_server/pyodbc/features.py#L4
I've added it to my fork here:
https://github.com/FlipperPA/django-pyodbc-azure/blob/azure-2.1/sql_server/pyodbc/features.py#L33
Can you give it a test? You'll need to upgrade to Django 2.1, and then you should be able to pip install git+https://github.com/FlipperPA/django-pyodbc-azure.git@azure-2.1 to see if it is as straight forward as adding that setting. At a cursory glance of Django's source, it looks like that might be all it takes. If it works, I'll issue Michaya a pull request.

It's a Chipotle WRAPPING PARTY!
So it truly is the most wonderful time of the year! Time for parties and shopping and giving gifts and cocktails and pretty papers and wrapping…lots and lots of wrapping!!!
The other day I had some girlfriends over after work to hang out and prep for the holidays. Sometimes its challenging to have friends over on a weeknight when you have to work that day and still also keep your family entertained…enter Chipotle. You guys have heard me spread the good burrito love in the past, but this experience might have been my ultimate party prep favorite.
A week before having friends over I placed an order for a Chipotle Burrito Box. I ordered an assortment of chicken, steak, veggie and barbacoa burritos for the party. After work that evening I swung by my local hot spot and out comes everything I need for dinner for 10 all tucked away neatly in a nice box with a large holiday bow on it, so cute!
Not only did I receive burritos galore but inside the box I also had a few bags of chips, a variety of salsas and guacamole for all, my favorite part! We also made margaritas and eggnog cocktails, 'tis the season and for indulging and celebrating I guess.
Cute touch…the burritos were all wrapped up and spelled out "Happy Holidays" there were even paper snowflakes in the box for extra dinner decorations! Honestly I couldn't have asked for a better place to pick up dinner for a casual evening in with the girls.
The theme of the evening was a "WRAPPING PARTY" get it? Wrapped burritos, wrap your presents? I provided dinner, tape, scissors, pretty ribbons and do-dads to top off your gift wrapping, while the guests brought their gifts and wrapping papers. The crew wore their comfy holiday pajamas, and a handful of yoga pants. We watched Love Actually and White Christmas. We ate a ton of Chipotle chips and salsa and wrapped our gifts until all the packages were made presentable for holiday giving. Check out some of my holiday lovelies below!
You still have a few nights to grab some friends and make wrapping all those gifts from Santa fun! Or if you've already got your wrapping under control, just having an easy, super yummy dining option for the holiday hosting is fun too.
Thanks Chipotle for making this working Mom's party so stress free and completely yummy. Everyone enjoyed their treats and I can honestly say I would totally order the burrito box again for an event. Happy wrapping to all! Cheers!
I was invited to host a Chipotle WRAPPING PARTY. In exchange for this post I was a provided a burrito box to share with my friends! Thanks for supporting this incredible organization in the CLE that allows me to create special content like this for iheartcleveland!

SIEM REAP, Cambodia: In the ancient temple complex of Angkor, it is not often a new attraction emerges. But from the country's most revered site, a new sensation has arrived - a young boy named Thuch Salik.
Salik, a slight 14-year-old, has become an overnight online star after a Malaysian visitor to the temples posted a video on Facebook of her interaction with him where he speaks in 10 different languages.
Salik is one of many children who ply the entrance and exit gates to popular temples in the hope of selling simple souvenirs, such as fridge magnets and postcards, to tourists. It is not uncommon for the child sellers to have picked up a few key phrases of the languages of the most frequent visitors - from China, Korea and Europe.
The money he earns goes directly to this mother, who uses it to support Salik's and his siblings' education and the family's daily needs. Their home is basic, just a few hundred metres from Ta Prohm, and the family has struggled with debt.
His mother Mann Vanna, who accompanies Salik and his younger brother Tithya to Ta Prohm every day to sell souvenirs, said she couldn't believe it when she started to hear about her son's growing fame.
"In Cambodia, there are thousands of children on the streets. Many of them are forced to beg. Their job is to be happy and smiling for the tourists. They target tourists. Tourists feel sad for them and they give them money, but that money doesn't go to the child, it goes to the handler or the broker for the child."

By Mario Padilla, Entomologist and Beekeeper at Butterfly Pavilion
At Butterfly Pavilion, we believe in conserving, protecting and educating the public about invertebrates from habitats around the globe. This is necessary because many of these animals are often forgotten. They tend to be small, hide in dark places and may trigger fears in many people. The truth is invertebrates make up 97% of the animal life on earth, with 1.2 million described species. Invertebrates are the foundation of countless food chains, control pests, pollinate our food, have vast research implications and are eaten by humans around the world.
In order to protect these important animals, Butterfly Pavilion participates in research and conservation both domestically and abroad. From the coast of northern California to the Gobi desert in Mongolia, Butterfly Pavilion makes an enormous impact all over the world. Recently, Butterfly Pavilion has launched a collaborative effort with the Katie Adamson Conservation Fund (KACF) and Denver Zoo to mitigate human and elephant conflict using honey bees, in western Nepal. This project was inspired by work in eastern Africa that has shown that elephants are afraid of bees and will avoid foraging in trees where bees nest. Bees will actively defend their hives by sending guard bees to sting any intruder. Elephants have sensitive trunks, ears and eyes and will avoid getting stung by avoiding bee hives. This work inspired researchers to test the feasibility of constructing "fences" of beehives, connected by a wire to block the elephants from entering human areas. Elephants enter human areas looking for crops, which provide them easy to access, concentrated source of nutrition. The problem arises when elephants damage property, homes and crops and raid grain stores, which can impact a family's livelihood immensely.
This conflict is increasing because humans and elephants are coming into closer proximity due to population growth. Astonishingly, "20% of the global human population shares the present range of the remaining 30,000 Asian elephants". Encounters between humans and elephants can lead to elephant death or injury, human death or injury, and can have large impacts on surrounding communities. Bee hive fences have been successful throughout Africa and Asia, and are currently being tested in Nepal. Butterfly Pavilion was in Nepal in September and October of this year supporting a new bee hive installation on a major elephant route that abuts to Bardia National Park. Butterfly Pavilion trained local community members in best beekeeping practices, supported hive installation and bee acquisition, and visited a local school to educate schoolchildren about the importance of pollinators. Bee fences not only discourage elephants from coming into human populated areas, the beekeepers can keep and sell the honey, learn a new skill and their crops can be pollinated by the bees, resulting in more buy-in than a regular fence.
This initial work will lay the foundation for a strong conservation program in Nepal that not only benefits the native elephant populations, but the people who share the environment with them. It is vital that we do our best to protect the remaining wild elephants populations and innovations like these that have a positively environmental impact will always be the most successful.
Learn more about Butterfly Pavilion's research and conservation efforts and/or and donate today to support our global impact!
Here at Butterfly Pavilion, we transform the way people think about invertebrates. These small but mighty animals that surround us are so much more than people think. They are everywhere, because everything depends on them. They are the hidden heroes of the animal kingdom. As the world's only stand-alone invertebrate zoo accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, Butterfly Pavilion works to foster an appreciation of these critical animals by educating the public about the need to protect and care for threatened habitats globally, while conducting research for solutions in invertebrate conservation. Whether it is providing unique, hands-on learning experiences in our exhibits and educational programs, conducting new research that sets the standard for zoos across the country or building innovative solutions for species and habitat conservation in countries around the world, Butterfly Pavilion is leading the way in ensuring invertebrates are protected for the future.

PH taking prudent, patient, pragmatic approach' to China's militarization
Published May 30, 2018, 3:21 PM
by Francine Ciasico
By Charissa Luci-Atienza
Diplomatic and security officials downplayed Wednesday China's militarization in the West Philippine Sea, even as they assured the public that the Duterte government is taking "prudent, patient, and pragmatic" approach in resolving the territorial spat with Beijing and going to war is not an option.
An aerial view of China occupied Subi Reef at Spratly Islands in disputed South China Sea April 21, 2017. (REUTERS/Francis Malasig/Pool / MANILA BULLETIN)
Foreign Affairs Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano maintained that the government is protecting the national territory and sovereign rights "to the fullest" and will not in any way engage in a shouting match with China.
"The Duterte approach is prudent, patient and pragmatic, " he told during the briefing of the National Task Force for the West Philippine Sea Wednesday.
"The Philippines is a peaceful nation. The Philippines renounces war as an instrument of national policy, " he said.
Cayetano said China has assured that the deployment of missiles in three reefs claimed by the Philippines as well as the testing and landing of Chinese bombers in Woody Island in the Paracels is "purely for defensive purpose and not directed against the Philippines."
He even noted that the government is not sitting on the China's supposed aggressive actions in the disputed West Philippine Sea and has filed "several dozens of diplomatic protests. "
"We are not asking you to trust us blindly. We have been filing diplomatic protests but our critics want us to shout loudly," Cayetano said.
"Yes, we have differences with them (China), but we have made gains We are not willing to do the Aquino approach," he said.
For his part, National Security Adviser and Secretary Hermogenes Esperon Jr. said they are continuously monitoring the actions of the various claimants in the disputed South China Sea/West Philippine Sea.
He agreed with Cayetano that government has not been remiss in undertaking diplomatic actions against any nation.
On China's militarization, Esperon, chairman of the National Task Force for the West Philippine Sea said,
"China now has two aircraft carriers; not there some years back. Is it militarization? Because of those two carriers, sailing across area of China we could conclude there is military activity but is in fact in the sense of training."
"Are those trainings directed to anybody? Possibly. The same can be said of Balikatan. Are we targeting a certain country or just a legitimate form of readiness?," he asked.
The briefing was made after the House Special Committee on the West Philippine Sea, chaired by former Speaker and Quezon City Rep. Feliciano Belmonte Jr. asked the government officials to discuss implications of recent developments in the West Philippine Sea and the supposed government's inaction on China's aggression.
"We have to erase doubts from the members of Congress that we are not doing anything. It's not true that we are the ones who are always "nakikiusap' to China," Cayetano said.
"As the President said, we are not slaves to anyone, " he pointed out.
Muntinlupa Rep. Ruffy Biazon and MAGDALO partylist Rep. Gary Alejano questioned the government's supposed silence and inaction on the militarization in the West Philippine Sea.
"With the agressive stance and posture of China as shown by the deployment of their defensive facilities, this has prompted the reaction of other countries such as the US by increasing their presence," Biazon said.
He even asked Cayetano if Philippine authorities and lawmakers can visit the territories being claimed by the Philippines, to which the foreign affairs chief replied affirmatively.
"Yes, you can but it may not be prudent. It could provoke similar actions from other claimants," he warned.
Alejano expressed serious concern on the ongoing arms race in the region.
"The arms race is happening right now. Filing a diplomatic protest is not a shouting match.
We are now surrendering ourselves because we want to appease China," he said.
"By all means we should talk to them but they would continue to pursue their national interest," Alejano said.
"As a sovereign country, no matter how small we are, we should assert that (our sovereignty)," he said.
During the briefing, Esperon did not discount the fact that "there is threat" and batted for more funding for the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) program.
"We are not saying we should beef up our defenses to prepare for war but it is incumbent upon a nation to strengthen its defenses," he said.
He said the country's military spending should be reviewed.
"I don't want to blame Congress, you must have your own reasons for not giving us P30 billion annually. Babalik kami sa Congress; we have now our second modernization program. Anong ibinibigay natin P25 billion a year; it is not even sufficient to buy one submarine. Anong instrument of power natin, diplomatic, doon tayo pupunta. Or economic, or legal," Esperon said.
Esperon and Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana also disclosed the government's upgrading port and airstrip facilities in Pag-asa Island.
"This is necessary for trade, the preservation of the livelihood of the fisherfolk, and the timely delivery of basic necessities of the community in the Municipality of Pag-asa," Esperon said.
They said lighthouses are also now being constructed on features held by the Philippines to ensure safety of navigation, along with the country's responsibility under the UNCLOS to provide navigational safety for all international vessels transiting the West Philippine Sea.

In addition Shedul.com is currently the world's fastest growing platform for salons and spas and is on track to process $3.5 billion worth of appointment bookings by the end of this year. The platform currently has over six million bookings each month and is growing at an average rate of 20 percent month-on-month.
According to Zeqiri, much of Shedul's success can be attributed to the inclusion of "intelligent features" "to help salons grow revenues".
For example, the platform "smartly displays price and availability options based on the client's purchase history and the salon's projected schedule" and "analyses client preferences and the business's activity to provide an unbeatable booking experience".
"These features free up salon staff to do what they do best and spend more face time with clients."
Zeqiri concludes that the platform's "affordability" is also key to its success.
"Shedul.com is free of charge with no trial period and no limits on usage − it's a completely subscription free salon system."

Leave the post-operative dressing on until you return to the office for dressing removal which will be approximately 9-14 days after your surgery. You can begin gentle range of motion exercises with your fingers. This should consist of flexing and extending the fingers. You may use your hand for light activities such as eating, dressing, typing, etc. Try to avoid vigorously bending the wrist down (flexion) as it can disturb the area of healing. Too much wrist motion in the first 4-6 weeks after your surgery will increase the risk of your ganglion returning. Weight lifting is strongly discouraged after your surgery for at least 6 weeks.
You may begin gentle wrist range of motion after your first post-operative appointment.
Schedule a post-operative appointment for 9-14 days after the surgery. The phone number for our appointment desk is: (503)214-5255. At this visit your post-operative dressing will be removed. Your sutures will also be removed at this time. You will then be given a prescription for a removal wrist brace that will need to be worn during activity for approximately 4 weeks after your surgery. Keep in mind that some localized swelling may persist for 2-3 months post-surgery. This swelling can often appear as a ganglion cyst, but is often scar tissue.


Influence metrics are growing up. According to Adage, Razorfish is about to introduce "the SIM score, which stands for social influence marketing." The new score is covered by Abbey Klaassen in What's Your Brand's Social Score?. Social media marketers have long sought (relatively speaking) a standard measure of social media ROI. I don't know that this SIM score is it. Let's have a quick look.
Razorfish worked with TNS/Cymfony to capture social media content and the net sentiment of a brand: the positive and neutral conversations minus negative ones, divided by total conversations about the brand.
The 140 character limit on tweets puts significant pressure on context. Context is often left out of tweets where it can be assumed by the reader. Crawlers of course have difficulty recognizing the implicit references and context of tweets, so some if not many tweets are simply missed.
Expressions in twitter are colloquial, if not also abbreviated, shortened, and clipped. Again, expressions often don't explicitly reference topics and content (brands, industries, products included).
People make recommendations in twitter shaped in part by who they follow and who's following them. One can't remove the act of recommending from the audience the recommendation is made to or in front of. People will often make recommendations not only to share their feelings about a product/brand, but also to publicly identify with that product or brand. References made in social media like twitter reflect on the twitterer. Tweets can show a person identifying with something or someone, attracting the attention of someone, showing gratitude to someone, showing affection for someone, and so on.
In public social media like twitter, a recommendation may also serve the purpose of building a person's credibility or reputation as an expert, influencer, trusted authority, and so on. Consider the difference in recommendations made by @Scobleizer and @GuyKawasaki and @jowyang. Each of these heavy users and influencers has his own way of watching for, filtering, selecting and then tweeting or retweeting. @guykawasaki has influence as a newswire, more than @jowyang, whose influence rests more on his personal and professional authority.
Recommendations can come as answers to solicited or unsolicited requests for help or information.
Recommendations may be made as a means of introduction on twitter — sometimes to get followed back, to get noticed, or simply to be helpful.
There are also ways in which recommendations may elude attempts to simplify sentiment captured from social media. There are also ways in which social media provide information about a brand's "influence" that are not in what people say but in how they say it, to whom, and what happens when they do. Some of this is what we can call "envelope" information (tweet addressing: to whom, for whom, citing whom, or @name, @reply, RT).
How quickly is brand retweeted?
How deep down a social graph does the retweeting go?
How far across a social network does the retweeting go?
I know that these aspects of social media activity are difficult to track and measure. But it would be great if there were an industry-wide effort to define and codify some of the attributes of social networks, relationship-based communications, and common types of expression in order to better represent conversational activity in social media. The results would not only paint a more accurate picture of brand presence in social media, but would also match the real social mechanics and dynamcis of online conversations. It may take a while for algorithms and tools to emerge for this. In the meantime, I would supplement SIM scoring with insight from a good community manager.
Thank you for your thoughtful comments on Fluent and the SIM Score. It is certainly not perfect but it is a starting point. One difference to the Net Promoter score – while that it is focused on the likelihood to recommend, with the SIM Score we think of it in terms of the brand health or the pulse or the blood pressure of the brand in the social web. It is less tied to recommendations because as you highlighted that's a lot trickier.
Thanks for your comment. I have to confess that I had not finished the report when I wrote this and was responding in part to its reception. The report is superbly written and offers a very clear rendition of the state of affairs.
Social context and user-centered social browsing and engagement is clearly the direction we're headed in, as much on ever-better profile-based social media like Facebook as well as interconnected and aggregated conversation-based social media (twitter, friendfeed, etc).
I like the challenge of measuring influence and of categorizing influeners, as is done by folks like klout.net. Social media analytics is slowly developing categories that are more behavioral and even psychological than the market segmentation or user adoption categories they started from. Which is smart — we can now get more granular about users than Forrester's initial social technographics.
In short, the social behaviors we impute to users, influencers and their audiences in particular, are motivated in part by the user's relation to the medium. (Which I like to simplify into Self-oriented, Other-oriented, and Relational.) That this can create distortions, bias, and many of the other "social effects" that characterize social media sociality (see shirky, danah boyd, et al…).
So I think it would be nifty to get even more granular, as the data and metrics develop by which to capture and weight, with characteristics of social branding in conversational media. I've suggested a personas 2.0 approach, but I think we need conversational models too (differences between inviting, giving, quoting, requesting, recommending…).
I know this is more than is needed at this stage — but the marketing grail is still in relationships, not with one but with trusted friend circles. Social has been the grail since ancient tribes organized their economies, power structures, marriages etc around kinship and alliances….
– how the communication style mutates as two or more people get to know one another (in the Twitter context) and adopt an increasingly familiar and shorthand style.
-the implied understanding in a continued conversation. Content indicating endorsement can be completely separated from endorsee as the exchange continues.
I am also interested in how this influences perceptions of interpersonal connection and the attendent impact on trust–more illusive and eminently less practical than brand monitoring!
On first point, yes, and add to the conversational familiarity (shorthand, tweeting vernaculars) social behaviors. For example a status-seeking retweeter who retweets a pundit less after getting to know him/her: that personal brand equity attracts more social tweeting behaviors when the celebrity/branded individual is inaccessible. And that once friends, two individuals would perceive some retweeting behaviors as disingenuous.
This social effect occurs, I think, because one can use other people, including their reputation and celebrity, as content. Tweeting others can make them as well as their tweets the content and reference of one's own tweets. This could certainly rub some people the wrong way.
Danah Boyd calls these "invisible audiences" — the psychologized version of the invisible audience would augment the presence aspect with a perceptual relation: projected vs internalized audiences, perhaps?
I really like your writing style. Thanks for this beautiful article!

Girls Soccer Preview: Independence Blue Devils
With a large freshman and junior class, the future is bright at Independence.
The Blue Devils, who finished 7-9-2 overall and 3-3-1 in the Chagrin Valley Conference Metro Division last fall, return eight starters and three others with varsity experience. They also added a large freshman class.
"We can equal or better our results from last season," said 17th-year head coach Bryan Less. "We have picked up several good freshmen and a bunch of returners are already faster and more skilled than last season."
The Blue Devils do have to find a replacement for Alex Adams, who graduated after tying the school record for 27 goals in a career, as well as three other key players.
"I have to figure out the best formation and position for everyone to play," Less said. "We also have to jell quickly, as three or four freshmen could be starting in game one. We have to find new scorers to replace Alex and ensure that Alana Nowak is not by herself on the offensive end."
Nowak, a junior midfielder who scored 11 goals with 13 assists, earned first-team All-CVC and second-team All-Greater Cleveland honors last season.
She should be ready to pick up where Adams left off.
"Alana is one of the most skilled players I have coached," Less said. "She has fantastic touch and speed. She is definitely one of the field leaders on the team; we just need her to be more selfish, as she has the ability to score 20 goals this season."
Independence's offensive threats include forwards Makenna Rini and MaryAnne LeRoy and midfielders Eliza Botzman, Mandy Kaufman, and Allie Bohrer.
Rini, a junior, scored two goals with two assists last year. LeRoy is a freshman.
"We need Makenna to become a go-to player this year. I have seen glimpses of her ability in the past, she just needs to trust her abilities and make plays on the field," Less said. "I am very excited to see MaryAnne play this year. I have been hearing great things about her from her youth coach. She has good skill for a young player, but will need to learn to play at the high school level of speed and power."
Botzman, a junior, assisted on one goal last season while Kaufman, also a junior, scored five times. Bohrer is a freshman.
"Eliza had a rough time last season, playing through hurt knee all year. She is healthy, though, and seems ready to go. Her speed is better than I have ever seen," Less said. "Mandy has come a long way in two years. Her freshman year, she barely played, and last season she scored our first playoff goal. Mandy is consistently one of the hardest workers and the team, and the effort shows on the game field. Allie is about to be a workhorse for us. I can already tell that she is very tough and can play anywhere on the field. In the near future, I see her as a center mid or defender helping control all the action."
Defensively, the Blue Devils boast one of the area's top athletes in junior Casey Adams, a two-time state track participant who earned All-Ohio honors as a freshman.
She scored two goals and added an assist last season on the way to earning second-team All-CVC and honorable mention all-district honors.
"Casey is already in the best shape of her life," Less said. "She now has the attitude to match her ability and is training as hard as she plays in the games. This year she will play center defender or center mid, helping control the action."
Independence's defense also includes seniors Jessica Harb and Addie Westerburg and junior Bryanna LeRoy.
All three recorded one assist last season.
"Jessica puts 100-percent into everything she does. No matter where she is on the field, she plays to win," Less said. "Addie is a joy to coach. She listens to everything I tell her and tries to fix every mistake. She can play with a fantastic controlled force that we really need. Bryanna was a great surprise last year, despite playing the entire season with a hurt back. She became a smart defender, and has already shown a drastic increase in speed and skill this year."
Minding the net again this season is junior Keelie Sears, who earned honorable mention all-conference honors after recording 136 saves with five clean sheets.
"Keelie is in only her third year of soccer ever," Less said. "Her improvement every year is a testament to her work ethic and athletic ability. Her confidence seems much higher, and she is on her way to being my next very good keeper."
While the Blue Devils do have a few holes to fill, Less is confident he has the personnel to show improvement on the field this season.
"We are working hard on individual defense and first touch," he said. "If everyone is able to get the basics down and minimize mistakes, our more skilled players can help drive us to victory."

Mechanical Seal Design And Technology is good choice for you that looking for nice reading experience. We hope you glad to visit our website. Please read our description and our privacy and policy page.
Finally I get this ebook, thanks for all these Mechanical Seal Design And Technology can get now!


Last month my husband broke my heart. I mean I ended up sat on the floor sobbing while the dog leaned against me and glowered at him.
Well, it was while I was thinking about setting up this site, and how I could create a new beautiful name and persona for myself, a wild mystic, in touch with the light at the source, writing amazing fantasy novels and totally separate to Jen Farrant, who is quite practical and likes a good spreadsheet.
I bounced around ideas and thoughts for quite a while, and came to him with a list of nom de plumes and talked them all through and he asked, 'what are you doing this for?'. I blinked at him a few times and said because I wanted to do all this amazing, wild creative stuff and keep it separate from my main work. He said 'but you are not a wild creative, you a technician at heart'.
I looked at him and then started sobbing. I felt utterly crushed. How could the man that I love say this to me, tell me that I wasn't this person that I desperately wanted to be? He went on to say that you can be creative and technical. He listed a lot of writers and creators who were very technical. It didn't change how hurt I was.
For years I have wanted to be a writer, but one who wrote fantasy novels, or even better, a literary writer, who would be celebrated. I have been beating myself up for not working on the novel I started and wrote 50,000 words of during Camp NaNoWriMo last July. I keep sitting down to work on it and hating it. I subscribed to lots of proper literary magazine and dutifully read them each time they came in, although I really wasn't enjoying them at all.
But I love writing like this, and I love researching and writing factual stuff, which I do a lot of for my clients.
I sat down with my journal and thought about what he had said. What I realised was he was right! I am a technical person – we met when I was the marketing manager for an IT and telecoms company, I am a geek, I love research. I want to know all the information about a subject! And I like detail and a good spreadsheet. My clients like the fact that I bring process and order to the arts.
One of the things I most enjoyed doing when I was younger was raw coding sites. I actually built a whole website in raw code, long before WordPress and its like came along. Aha!!
clients on my main site being put off because of this style of writing.
I am so looking forward to making this site look awesome as I develop my skills more!
My spirituality is vital to me and how I live my life and that is why I set this site up, but I have set it up under my name, Jen Farrant, I haven't created a whole new persona to do so. But at the same time, I accept that I am practical person, that's why I have an aversion to a lot of the spiritual sites out there. That's why this site is different, it comes from that really grounded space.
This is one of the reasons why I love my husband, he knows me so well and he is able to help me to see myself properly too. I think it's important not to surround ourselves with 'yes men', he challenges me each day to be my best self and truest self too. Are you lucky enough to have that in your life?


We are in the election conundrums again- the much waited '2019' is here and already some regions in India voted on 11th of April. Political parties got super active a few months before the election, to put in place their 'vision' of running the country. In the climate of growing cynicism about politics, especially among the younger generation, it is an added challenge to the parties to woo the voters with various schemes and promises. On the other hand, because of its unique demographic specificities - caste violence, burgeoning inequalities, and gender disparities – India's political parties also face challenges of grappling with a 'balanced chord'.
This article takes into account the recently released manifestos of some of the major political parties, who are in the race of either taking helm at the centre or is believed to be playing a major role in this general election. Nonetheless, it is simply not enough to evaluate any manifesto with mere words it charts out and promises it makes. For, any manifesto must be treated as a historical document and must be placed in the context and time it appears before us. In my opinion, a scheme for generating employment is meaningless if the society at large faces 'un-freedom' under any government. For the purpose of this article, to begin with, I shall compare various promises doled out in the manifestos of Congress and BJP – especially for rural development. 'India lives in its villages'- still, and yet to believe that the factors of rural development are static and constant is simply erroneous. For a very long time, especially since opening up of the Indian market in 1991, agrarian problems have been mounting in front of us. With promises of a certain kind and definition of 'development', India's agricultural menace stands on the verge of a 'civilisational crisis', as economist P. Sainath has opined in his recent article. (Sainath, 2018) But before I begin, this must also be said that manifestos cannot also be judged simply by economic rigour, rather it needs ample political wisdom and ethical judgement to understand them.
It is for the first time in the history of independent India that a political party with a majoritarian worldview ruled our people with an absolute majority. Also, since decades, no other political party could galvanize an absolute majority in the lower house of the parliament. Both the factors are intrinsic to my analysis of their political documents and promises they made to the rural Indian population in their 'Sankalpa Patra', for, after spending five years in power, enjoying almost 'no hindrance from the opposition', the party seems to have lost its vision vis a vis rural India. Let us see them one by one.
In their manifesto, BJP has claimed that it will extend the MGNREGA with agricultural work, which many have defined as a method to obfuscate the people further. It is, in fact, seen as a measure to weaken the scheme further, which has seen tremendous neglect from the successive governments since UPA II. In fact, in their last 'interim budget', the BJP has not allocated any extra amount to strengthen the project. With the threat of climate change and extreme drought, when the agricultural sector faces added challenges, MNGREGA should have been considered seriously. As can be seen from various data, the average working days under MNREGA has been waning – from a promised 100 days to something around 49 days in 2015-16 to further low at 45 days in 2017-18. On the other hand, the manifesto has charted out various schemes like 'pension for farmers', '25 lakh crore investments' etc. to address the agrarian distress. The real picture, however, portrays a contradicting schema. Although the manifesto does not provide any concrete statistics, in the last budget allocation to the 'Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana' faced a stupendous cut - 'from Rs 4,500 cr in the revised estimates to just Rs 3,600 cr'. According to Vijoo Krishnan, an economist and the general secretary of the All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS), "It is notable that the outlay for Price Stabilisation Fund which was a much-hyped programme aiming to address problems arising out of volatility in prices has come down from Rs 6,900 crores in 2016-17 to merely Rs 1,500 crores in 2018-19." (2019, April 10) It is quite surprising that the BJP has kept the much-hyped Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana, not on the top of their promise list in the manifesto. This particular scheme was claimed as the solution for many farmers, now put under voluntary choice, after it faced severe criticisms from many pressure groups. A report suggests that, in a reply to an RTI filed by PP Kapoor, more than 84 lakh farmers, about 15 per cent of the total farmers insured in the first year of the scheme in 2016-17, withdrew themselves from the scheme in 2017-18. This scheme was dubbed as 'milking cow' and 'goldmine' for ten rich corporate houses.
Congress's u-turn from malefic neo-liberalism?
We have now discussed how the ruling dispensation has gone to the voters with their views on rural development. Let us now see, how Congress, the main opposition party which ruled India for decades, matches or contrasts their manifesto with that of the BJP. For a starter, it must be said that Congress's manifesto is much more detailed and sophisticated than the BJP's, although it has several points of loopholes. Professor Yogendra Yadav has termed it as 'the right document in the wrong time' - although many economists have suggested a contrary picture.
To begin with, Congress has promised a new NYAY scheme to check income disparity. This scheme promises Rs 72,000 per year to the poorest 20% of India's households. The ruling BJP and its allies have termed it as absurd. The main point which clouds their accusation is the determinant factor of choosing the beneficiaries and the 'plausibility' factor. Economist Pranab Bardhan has suggested that it is not only possible to run the scheme, but is a new economic imperative if we want to bridge the enormous income disparity the country faces. He claims that "[...] by reducing the subsidies to the better-off and increasing the taxes on the rich, nearly 10% of GDP can be potentially mobilised." (2019, April 4) The supporters and the contenders of the scheme have almost unanimously conveyed the problem with 'identification' of beneficiaries – although they see the Socio-Economic Caste Consensus (SECC), 2011 can be used for the purpose. Apart from that, the Antodyay Anna Yojana (AAY), which maintains a record of 2.36 crore families, eligible to receive 35 kg of wheat/rice per month. In my opinion, this is the most inclusive list of beneficiaries as it encompasses the plethora of beneficiaries – ranging from rural landless population to the urban unorganised sector.
But still, the question of 'mobilising resources' remain a primary axiom of debate over the scheme. How can the Congress, the champion of corporate-driven development, suddenly turn the table to this extent of becoming a benevolent caretaker of the poor? It is natural that, given the powerful corporate-rich-middle class clout that Indian politics face today, a scheme like the NYAY, although too little to alleviate inequality from our society, will face an immense challenge. As economist S. Subramanian says, "from 2005-06 to 2013-14, the average annual ratio of 'revenue foregone' (which is a measure of exemptions and concession attracted by direct and indirect taxes) to GDP was of the order of 6.45%. This is mainly assistance to corporate and business interest. Nary a word of criticism has been levelled against support for the rich, while a prospective programme of vastly more modest support for the poor is met with the charge of violating fiscal discipline." (2019, April 2) Here, in my opinion, politics come into play and 'political economy' takes the primary stage. Here, politics is tightly entangled with the 'ethical stance' and a 'moment of decision', transcending statistical scales of microeconomics. At the same time, this must also be reiterated that the revenue generation for NYAY cannot be done at the expense of other social benefits – like education and health. From the manifesto, it seems that the Congress has begun to understand the implication of the two-decade-old illusionary 'trickle down' approach, which indeed brought some benefits to a minuscule middle class but impoverished the majority of the masses. Anjana Thampi and Ishan Anand rightly point out in their comments on the Congress's manifesto, that the manual labourers in agriculture "have been most affected when real wage growth took a nosedive after 2014 and hardly recovered since then. Farm output prices have also declined sharply. The growth in the wholesale price index for food articles was negative for six consecutive months from July to December 2018. This was the worst slump in food prices in the last 18 years." (2019, March 26) So how does the Congress plan to address this issue?
Congress promises to launch MGNREGA 3.0 – 'in the Water Bodies restoration mission' and 'Wasteland Regeneration mission'. Together with NYAY, this seems to be going in the right direction. According to the Central Statistics office, farm income growth in India has dropped to as low as 2.67 per cent, lowest in fourteen years. To address such an aggravated situation, Congress has promised to set up a 'National Commission on Agricultural Development and Planning' to gauge and implement a minimum support price (MSP). The peasants' organisations, which organised massive Kisan long marches in various cities, demanded the MSP to be at least one and a half times of the total cost of inputs. Congress must hear them to chalk out a definitive plan against ambivalent promises. It is quite clear from the manifesto that Congress has taken the issues of rural Indian distress into account when they write, "Congress will encourage farmers to diversify into the production of local varieties of millets and pulses that can be procured for the PDS, Mid-Day Meals Scheme and the ICDS programme". This is a much more concrete plan than a Pradhanmantri Kisan Samman Yojana, peddled by the BJP. In the recent times, many organisations have demanded a separate parliamentary session to address the agricultural issues, and Congress's 'separate kisan budget' is a positive step towards it, indeed it means very little at this stage. Without more public investment in the agricultural sector, together with the active participation of the state in building roads, electricity – a separate budget will not provide an alternative to the continuing marketised plunder of Indian agriculture.
It is quite surprising that none of the major political parties mentioned anything about land reform. Land issues in India, from the ceiling of landholding in a feudalistic setup in many parts of the country to land grab for real estate business and SEZs, is a major reason behind the distress in India's rural economy. If land reform is not considered with utmost seriousness, agricultural input of any amount will not reap any major benefit. It is in this sense, I believe, economist Prabhat Patnaik is quite right calling the Congress's manifesto and various schemes a 'charity document of the neo-liberalism with a human face'.
Before concluding the article, I would like to bring the reader's attention to another very important aspect. In their comments, many economists have pointed out that 'identification of the real beneficiary' is a major issue. Even in the past, we have been reminded several times that 'only one paisa from the 100 paise allotted' for the people reach them. Political scientists often regarded that the bureaucratic apathy cause to this situation. But the major reason behind the so-called 'implementation problem' is social structure of India– class, caste and gender. It is in this sense, Samajwadi Party's manifesto which openly calls for 'taxing the top 10%', who uniformly come from the upper caste, is a more positive step towards attaining social justice and poverty alleviation.
For the first time after two decades of India's liberalisation, political parties are waking up from their slumber and at least publicly ready to relinquish their 'obsession with growth numbers.' This is indeed a positive step, as clearly seen in the manifesto of the two major political parties of India. This is result of a consequence India is facing today, especially with acute rural distress. It is not surprising that the recent assembly elections in the three North Indian states, stronghold of BJP, were fought on real issues like jobs and agriculture. It is also clear from Congress's manifesto that the grand old party is trying to bring the 2019 election to real issues like those. The BJP, on the other hand, has not addressed issues like a job with much seriousness!
In this article, I have tried to analyse the vision of two major political parties of India, in terms of their commitments and promises to the rural population. We have seen while the BJP has chosen to go subtle, with just mentioning their existing schemes, the Congress has walked a long way to chalk out what might actually be a positive step. The BJP's unwillingness to make grand promises might have derived from their poor performance in many recent elections and with farmers hitting the streets in thousands against their governments – both at the centre and states, where they rule. With this, it can safely be concluded that the narrative was already set months ago and now with the manifestos of the two competing political parties it is evident that agricultural distress and rural economy is going to be a key issue for the next government, whoever manages to win on the 23rd May.

27th Annual Foundation Friday BBQ
It's Foundation Friday in Portage la Prairie, and the Portage District General Hospital Foundation held their annual barbecue again.
Executive director Erin Miller notes all the details.
"Today is our 27th annual Foundation Friday barbecue. We are celebrating it — always have — the last Friday of May. Unfortunately the weather doesn't seem to want to cooperate with us most years. The rain is kind of holding off. So, we're serving hamburgers, hotdogs, salads, and deserts. We have the Sharpe Sisters performing here. It's just a really, really great day supporting the Hospital Foundation."
She notes a lot of people attended.
"They're hoping to serve a thousand people. The tent looks really full. But it's always hard to say til the end of the day, though — how many people actually came through."
"This is unreal. People support the Portage District General Hospital Foundation in numerous events. We have about 75 volunteers here today. We have people that come year to year to this event. We have a great silent auction where all the prizes were donated. And we have our supporters that continue to come, rain, shine, what have you. So, it's an excellent community event, and we're so grateful for everyone in our community."
Miller explains how the moneys that's raised is spent.
"We do a lot of things with the money that the Hospital Foundation raises. So, we buy equipment that's not funded by the regular government spending. Things to make services more available and have people able to stay closer to home for their services."
Chief executive officer of Southern Health-Santé Sud Kathy McPhail says she's amazed at the crowd today, and explains how important the fundraiser is.
"As people know the public money that's in health and in the public coffers isn't enough to cover everything. And Foundation are always out there and true friends of the health system in raising money for some of those things that we just can't — maybe in a timely manner — achieve to acquire. So, often it's equipment. But sometimes it's other things, like even some staffing positions."
Looking at the amount of people who arrived, McPhail adds, "I know that Erin does a lot of leg work and ground work, and the other members of the foundation to make sure that people know about this event. And she's reached out to many of the surrounding communities. I see people from all around the area. So, that's wonderful


Originally our plan for today was to hike to the Birnbachloch (DE), a fairly easy and scenic route. Unfortunately it was raining so much we alternatively visited the Lamprechtshöhle which probably was as scenic. Enjoy the photos!
Afterwards we enjoyed late lunch at Bergdorf Priesteregg. That place offers a sophisticated ambience, considerate staff and wonderful food.

The word "chiropractic" comes from the Greek words cheir (hand) and praxis (action) and literally means "done by hand." Instead of prescribing drugs or performing surgeries, chiropractors use manual treatments of the spine and joints, exercise therapy, massage, trigger point therapy and lifestyle changes to allow the body's natural state of health to fully express itself.
Like conventional medicine, chiropractic is based upon scientific principles of . . .
Treatment based upon the practitioner's rigorous training and clinical experience.
The chiropractic approach to healthcare is holistic, meaning that it addresses your overall health. It recognizes that many lifestyle factors such as exercise, diet, rest and environment impact your health. For this reason, chiropractors recommend changes in lifestyle- eating, exercise, and sleeping habits-in addition to chiropractic care.
What truly differentiates doctors of chiropractic from any other healthcare professionals is the fact that chiropractors are the only professionals who are trained to diagnose and treat what are called spinal subluxations. The word "subluxation" comes from the Latin words meaning "to dislocate" (luxare) and "somewhat or slightly" (sub). So the term 'vertebral subluxation' literally means a slight dislocation (misalignment) of the bones in the spine. Although this term was adequate in the 1800s when much was still misunderstood about the human body, today the word "subluxation" has changed in meaning to capture the complex of neurological, structural and functional changes that occur when a bone is "out of place." For this reason chiropractors usually refer to subluxations of the spine as the "Vertebral Subluxation Complex", or "VSC" for short.
The chiropractic adjustment is a quick thrust applied to a vertebra for the purpose of correcting its position, movement or both. Adjustments are often accompanied by an audible release of gas that sounds like a "crack." The sound sometimes shocks people a little bit the first couple times they get adjusted, but the sensation is usually relieving. Occasionally, minor discomfort is experienced, especially if the surrounding muscles are in spasm or the patient tenses up during the chiropractic procedure. There are times when the audible "cracking" does not occur. This is often due to either significant muscle tightness or that the patient may be having a hard time relaxing during their adjustments.
Chiropractic is so much more than simply a means of relieving pain. Ultimately, the goal of the chiropractic treatment is to restore the body to its natural state of optimal health. In order to accomplish this, I use a variety of treatment methods, including manual adjustments, massage, trigger point therapy, nutrition, exercise rehabilitation, massage, as well as counseling on lifestyle issues that impact your health. Since the body has a remarkable ability to heal itself and to maintain its own health, the primary focus is simply to remove those things which interfere with the body's normal healing ability.

Interview: Yale Evelev of Luaka Bop
World Treasures Music spoke to Luaka Bop president Yale Evelev, the label's latest release compiles the work of Alice Coltrane – World Spirituality Classics 1: The Ecstatic Music of Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda. The record features music Coltrane made while she lived at the Sai Anantam Ashram (a spiritual monastery in California), which she established in 1983. The songs were recorded between 1982 and 1995 and had previously been available only on cassettes distributed within her spiritual community.
Luaka Bop has celebrated music from around the globe since 1988 and was responsible for releasing the work of William Onyeabor.
Yale Evelev, president of the music label Luaka Bop and an avid vinyl record collector, photographed in his home in NYC for Dust & Grooves, a photo documentary on vinyl rcord collecors.

WTM – What have been the emotions now the Ecstatic Praise project has finished?
Well the way we work is that the project doesn't really finish, so that idea of emotions after a finish just don't come into play. Overall it's been an amazing project though. Usually we are working on things that are somewhat unknown. This on the other hand, was music that was very important to many people from an artist who was even more important to many more. The response has been so great, we hope that we get to continue to work with her legacy, though whether that will be allowed is unknown.
WTM – What was the most memorable moment of the project?
Going to the Ashram for the first time and seeing a Sunday service with the handful of remaining members. I cried. For us to see in action something that we've worked so hard on is actually very rare.
WTM – Where have you dug for records most recently?
I try not to look for records unless I'm traveling. If I'm in another country I feel I'll never see that record again, if I'm in America I feel 'do I really need that record?'. That said, my son DJs and so we at times drive around to shops just to see what they're like. So to answer your question, New Jersey.
WTM – What's been your most prized find of late?
I have been buying lots of African albums on Discogs, though I feel I am starting to come out the other end of this wellspring of amazing albums.
WTM – Do you and David Byrne feel working in Alice's music has been constructive?
David actually has had nothing to do with Luaka Bop since 2003, though he co-owns it with me.
WTM – What next for the label?
A continuation of the World Spirituality Series. Plus an album from Domenico and one from Kassin, both of the Plus 2's.
July 26, 2017 WTM	Alice Coltrane, Ecstatic Music, Luaka Bop, Turiyasangitananda, William Onyeabor, Yale Evelev

Add Semigroup instance for ReflectedMonoid.
Support cross-compilation and unregistered GHC builds.
Added reifyNat and reifySymbol for GHC 7.8+, capable of reflecting into the KnownNat and KnownSymbol classes respectively for use with other APIs.
Back-ported reifyTypeable from lens. This enables us to perform a (less efficient) form of Typeable reflection.
Renamed the flag for disabling the use of template-haskell, to -f-template-haskell for consistency with my other packages.
Builds warning-free on GHC 7.10.
Added a dynamic FromJSON example.
Updated the link to the paper.
We no longer export Show (Q a) for GHC >= 7.4. This was causing random hangs when users tried to somehow run declaration splices from the REPL.
We no longer depend on tagged for GHC >= 7.8, since Proxy is now in base.
Added a flag to disable template-haskell support for GHC stage1 platforms.
Changed the behavior of the $(1) template haskell splices for Exp to use a Proxy rather than value-level numbers. This is more consistent with the role of this libraary and the other could always be generated via sa splice anyways.
Added a workaround for changes in the behavior of the internal 'Magic' datatype under the current GHC PolyKinds implementation.
Merged some functionality from Data.Analytics.Reflection. Notably the ability to use type nats to reflect numbers, and to splice numbers directly. This reduces orphan instances somewhat.
Fixed an issue caused by changes in GHC 7.7's typechecker by using explicit ScopedTypeVariables.
Both implementations now work on Hugs; the fast implementation ascends from the ranks of completely unportable black magic to being merely /mostly/ unportable black magic.
Much faster implementation available that is about 50 /times/ faster than 0.9 and which runs purely on black magic. This version is now used by default. To turn it off install with the slow flag. If you encounter a problem with the implementation, please contact the author.

NGO: 25% of new Jerusalem homes built in occupied east

AFP, Jerusalem Monday, 29 September 2014
About 25 percent of new Israeli houses being built in Jerusalem in the first half of 2014 were in the city's annexed east, an Israeli NGO said on Sunday.
Jerusalem city council published a statement saying that between January 1 and June 30 work began on 2,100 homes in the city.

It did not say where construction was taking place, in line with Israel's definition of the whole city as in integral and indivisible part of the Jewish state.
But Hagit Ofran, of settlement watchdog Peace Now, told AFP in response to a query that about a quarter of the new homes were in settlements in the Arab areas occupied by Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War.
The occupied east of the city was later annexed in a move never recognised by the international community.
"We're talking about approximately 500" homes, Ofran said, adding that the figures were broadly in line with recent years.
The Palestinians want east Jerusalem as the capital of their promised state and Israeli settlement building there is a source of constant international criticism.
Figures provided by the municipality say there are about 306,000 Palestinians living in east Jerusalem, whose civil status is that of residents, not citizens. They account for 38 percent of the city's overall population.
Some 200,000 Israeli settlers also live in east Jerusalem.
