Q: get sum of the each possibility based on the column value in hive - Aggregate table I have table with following columns.

For the above table I need to get the count by date for each cd depends on ind value combinations and expecting the below output table.

for the row2 in output table, one OK and one no is there for id 45 and so need to take count as 1 for the date 2020-02-24 because it has 1 ok
similarly, for row4, it has notok and no, so for this combination we need to take notok for the max date for the id 30
I need to develop this in hive and could someone suggest how we can implement this. I tried separate sub queries to write but it is hitting performance due to many joins(I am writing individual query to calculate each combination separately and joining the results)
Updated for other scenario:
I have below data in table.

When we give weightage, it looks as follows

First case: when we are doing group by date, for 1/1/2020 I am getting count 1 which is correct
2nd Case: for date 1/2/2020, we suppose to get only count 1 for notOk but it is giving 2(as it is looking for 1st case row for 1/2/2020 for cd 1.
Also another scienario:
when I have multiple records for the same cd in different dates, not giving right results.

I have 2 "ok"s for cd 1 in different dates. So We need to consider only count 1 and we need to drop other ok which is either 1/1/2020 or 1/2/2020 as it is for same cd.
Really appreciate for your help.
Thanks,
Babu

A: If you need to take ind count for latest date for a given ID then the query will look like following
select dt,count(case when ind='ok' then 1 end) as ok_count,
count(case when ind='No' then 1 end) as No_count,
count(case when ind='not ok' then 1 end) as not_ok_count
from mytable_test where dt in (select max(dt) from mytable_test group by cd) group by dt;

However, If there are certain truth table conditions such as : for a given ID,
-choose OK if it has both OK and No.
-choose not ok if it has both No and not ok.
then it might not be a very efficient one, but will work fine.
select dt,count(case when ind='ok' then 1 end) as ok_count,
count(case when ind='No' then 1 end) as No_count,
count(case when ind='not ok' then 1 end) as not_ok_count
from mytable_test where dt in (
select max(a.dt) from mytable_test a,(select cd, (case when ind_to_consider=0 then 'No' when ind_to_consider=1 then 'ok' when ind_to_consider=2 then 'not ok' end ) as decoeded_ind from  (select cd,max(ind_wt) as ind_to_consider from (select dt,cd,ind,(case when ind='ok' then 1 when ind='No' then 0 when ind='not ok' then 2 end ) as ind_wt from  mytable_test) wt group by cd) decoder) k where a.cd=k.cd and a.ind=k.decoeded_ind group by a.cd,a.ind)  group by dt;

explaination
first provide some weightage to the conditions of ind that you have provided .
In this case, based on your example, I am assuming NOK will be of least weigtage and OK medium and not ok of highest
select dt,cd,ind,(case when ind='ok' then 1 when ind='No' then 0 when ind='not ok' then 2 end ) as ind_wt from  mytable_test

    +-------------+-----+---------+---------+--+
    |     dt      | cd  |   ind   | ind_wt  |
    +-------------+-----+---------+---------+--+
    | 2020-08-24  | 10  | ok      | 1       |
    | 2020-02-21  | 45  | No      | 0       |
    | 2020-02-24  | 45  | ok      | 1       |
    | 2020-08-25  | 20  | No      | 0       |
    | 2020-10-09  | 30  | not ok  | 2       |
    | 2020-10-13  | 30  | not ok  | 2       |
    | 2020-10-21  | 30  | No      | 0       |
    | 2020-10-23  | 30  | No      | 0       |
    | 2020-09-14  | 12  | No      | 0       |
    +-------------+-----+---------+---------+--+

next get the max weightage for each CD ( in the wt block)
select cd,max(ind_wt) as ind_to_consider from (select dt,cd,ind,(case when ind='ok' then 1 when ind='No' then 0 when ind='not ok' then 2 end ) as ind_wt from  mytable_test) wt group by cd

+-----+------------------+--+
| cd  | ind_to_consider  |
+-----+------------------+--+
| 10  | 1                |
| 12  | 0                |
| 20  | 0                |
| 30  | 2                |
| 45  | 1                |
+-----+------------------+--+

Now that you have to decode the weight back to indicator so that you can get the latest date for each cd and max indicator .
select max(a.dt) from mytable_test a,(select cd, (case when ind_to_consider=0 then 'No' when ind_to_consider=1 then 'ok' when ind_to_consider=2 then 'not ok' end ) as decoeded_ind from  (select cd,max(ind_wt) as ind_to_consider from (select dt,cd,ind,(case when ind='ok' then 1 when ind='No' then 0 when ind='not ok' then 2 end ) as ind_wt from  mytable_test) wt group by cd) decoder) k where a.cd=k.cd and a.ind=k.decoeded_ind group by a.cd,a.ind

+-------------+--+
|     _c0     |
+-------------+--+
| 2020-08-24  |
| 2020-09-14  |
| 2020-08-25  |
| 2020-10-13  |
| 2020-02-24  |
+-------------+--+

then use these dates to get the piviot
select dt,count(case when ind='ok' then 1 end) as ok_count,
count(case when ind='No' then 1 end) as No_count,
count(case when ind='not ok' then 1 end) as not_ok_count
from mytable_test where dt in (
select max(a.dt) from mytable_test a,(select cd, (case when ind_to_consider=0 then 'No' when ind_to_consider=1 then 'ok' when ind_to_consider=2 then 'not ok' end ) as decoeded_ind from  (select cd,max(ind_wt) as ind_to_consider from (select dt,cd,ind,(case when ind='ok' then 1 when ind='No' then 0 when ind='not ok' then 2 end ) as ind_wt from  mytable_test) wt group by cd) decoder) k where a.cd=k.cd and a.ind=k.decoeded_ind group by a.cd,a.ind)  group by dt;

+-------------+-----------+-----------+---------------+--+
|     dt      | ok_count  | no_count  | not_ok_count  |
+-------------+-----------+-----------+---------------+--+
| 2020-02-24  | 1         | 0         | 0             |
| 2020-08-24  | 1         | 0         | 0             |
| 2020-08-25  | 0         | 1         | 0             |
| 2020-09-14  | 0         | 1         | 0             |
| 2020-10-13  | 0         | 0         | 1             |
+-------------+-----------+-----------+---------------+--+

A: Use conditional aggregation:
select date,
    sum(case when ind = 'ok'     then 1 else 0 end) ok_count,
    sum(case when ind = 'No'     then 1 else 0 end) no_count,
    sum(case when ind = 'not ok' then 1 else 0 end) not_ok_count
from mytable
group by date

Or, if you want to only take in account the latest row per id, we can pre-filter with row_number() first:
select date,
    sum(case when ind = 'ok'     then 1 else 0 end) ok_count,
    sum(case when ind = 'No'     then 1 else 0 end) no_count,
    sum(case when ind = 'not ok' then 1 else 0 end) not_ok_count
from (
    select t.*, row_number() over(partition by id order by date desc) rn
    from mytable t
) t
where rn = 1
group by date

This Is Not This Heat: Final London Gig
Luke Turner , January 16th, 2019 14:42
Charles' Hayward and Bullen reveal end plans
This Is Not This Heat, the group put together by Charles Hayward and Charles Bullen to play the music of This Heat, have announced their last London gig. This will take place at The Albany on 25th May 2019. Says Charles Hayward, "This Is Not This Heat has been a fantastic experience revisiting the music from 40 years ago and playing to audiences across the world, Japan, US, Europe and UK, so much love and enthusiasm. But moving forward has always been deep inside the music and we need to resolve that contradiction. Now. To play our final London gig at the Albany feels right, This Heat played Rock Against Racism gigs at the old building and we look forward to returning to South London and a vibrant community of resistance and creativity."
Hayward also paid tribute to the musicians who had made the project a possibility. "So much love, enthusiasm, imagination and skill from the musicians who have helped Charles Bullen and me to realise the new versions of the songs, Alex Ward, Frank Byng, James Sedwards, Daniel O'Sullivan, Merlin Nova and at the earlier gigs, Alexis Taylor, John Edwards, Chris Cutler, Thurston Moore."
As well as the Albany gigs there will be US dates and a small number of UK dates in May leading up to the Albany including Glasgow. The band will play a residency in Copenhagen during CPH:DOX in March with one night dedicated to the rare occurrence of the band improvising sound tracks to the early films of British artist filmmaker John Smith. There's also an intriguing hint that the project isn't quite entirely over: "This Is Not This Heat was always conceived as an umbrella project title. So while the band will be ending with some international dates by the summer there are ideas in development."

I wish we would have had this chair when our first was born. A lot of time is spent rocking baby and this chair makes it comfortable for both parties involved. It is a great size, even though I am 6'4'' I sit very comfortably on it. I feel that it was a great investment (even though it was relatively inexpensive) for later years as well, as we will use it somewhere else in the house after babies are grown. Love this chair!

nice touch. The only down side (a very minimal downside) is the recliner is a little difficult to kick down....but I'm an older person, so the exercise is good for me. These recliners are terrific!

ATLANTA FALCON / MERCEDES BENZ USA NEWS! - Austrian Motors, Ltd.
FALCONS STADIUM TO BE NAMED MERCEDES BENZ STADIUM!!!
The Atlanta Falcons' new stadium officially got its name today: Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Falcons owner Arthur Blank announced, as expected, that Mercedes-Benz, a corporate newcomer to metro Atlanta, has bought the naming rights to the $1.4 billion stadium under construction downtown.
"We could not be prouder to put 'Mercedes-Benz' on our stadium," Blank said.
Blank and Mercedes-Benz USA President and CEO Steve Cannon said the naming-rights deal will run for 27 years but would not disclose financial terms. Cannon called it the largest marketing deal in Mercedes-Benz history.
Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal, Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and Falcons players Matt Ryan and Julio Jones attended the announcement, held at the Falcons' stadium preview center off Northside Parkway.
Mercedes-Benz, a German luxury automaker, announced plans in January to move its U.S. headquarters from New Jersey to metro Atlanta. The company is temporarily housed in an office park in Dunwoody and plans to build a new headquarters campus in Sandy Springs near Georgia 400 and Abernathy Road.
Mercedes' name on the Atlanta stadium will create an unusual situation because the New Orleans Saints, the Falcons' division rival in the NFC South, already have the automaker's name on their stadium: the Mercedes-Benz Super-dome.
The company also has its name on an arena in Shanghai, China.
The Falcons have been shopping the stadium naming rights since last year. Team officials have said they expected the name to fetch a price at the upper end of such deals in the NFL.
The largest NFL naming rights deals are the New York Giants' and Jets' agreement with insurance giant MetLife for a reported $17 million to $20 million per year on the teams' shared stadium and the Dallas Cowboys' agreement with AT&T for a reported $17 million to $19 million per year.
Under terms of the Falcons' stadium deal with the city of Atlanta and the Georgia World Congress Center Authority, a state agency, the team controls the sale of naming rights and retains the revenue received. Neither government entity has approval rights over the naming-rights deal.
The new stadium – under construction next to the Georgia Dome and slated to open in 2017 — also will be home to a Major League Soccer expansion franchise, named Atlanta United FC, and numerous other events.

OTD 5th July 2009: Discovery of the Staffordshire Hoard
Author Topic: OTD 5th July 2009: Discovery of the Staffordshire Hoard (Read 733 times)
Continuing my series of posts from the Companions' Facebook page, here is the most popular post from the past week commemorating the anniversary of the discovery of the Staffordshire Hoard....
It's the anniversary of the Staffordshire Hoard being discovered in a field on 5th July 2009 by a metal detectorist called Terry Herbert. The Staffordshire Hoard is the largest collection of Anglo-Saxon gold and silver metalwork ever found, anywhere in the world. It consists of around 4,000 items which combine to a total of over 5kg of gold, nearly 1 ½ kg of silver and around 3,500 cloisonné garnets.
Remarkably it was buried just below the surface, due to soil erosion over the years, and had been disturbed by ploughing the previous year, scattering it. It was probably buried around 650-675 AD, and lay close to the Roman Road of Watling Street which was still an important route at the time. Excavation at the site confirmed there were no buildings or other evidence for Anglo-Saxon habitation on the site, confirming it had been buried in a relatively remote location (although presumably where it could be found again near the road).
In November 2012 a further 81 pieces of gold and silver items were discovered in the same field when it was ploughed again.
The Hoard comprises primarily war gear which is particularly important as most survivals from the period are church items or female burial pieces, which provides a limited view. This find enables researchers to explore the warrior culture more fully than in the past.
The pieces are removed from weapons rather than representing the main body of the weapon itself (such as the sword blade). There are almost 100 pommel caps for instance and probably helmet fittings. However, swords are the major contributing type of object and it has been suggested that the fittings were taken to depersonalise the original blade. Each object is unique in pattern and probably identified the owner in some way. However, whether these are from a single battle or collected over many years is not clear.
The location of the find is in the Kingdom of Mercia and dates to the seventh century when the kings there were expanding aggressively. The items might represent any of their campaigns against the other kingdoms. One theory is that the burial is a ritual deposit, but it may have been battle loot or a ransom, or just hidden from attackers, or even collected for recycling into new fittings; debate remains keen.
While the quantities are enormous, the quality is also extraordinary indicating that the objects were created for elite warriors. The hoard contains only one written text, a biblical inscription written in Latin and misspelled in two places. It reads: "Rise up, O Lord, and may thy enemies be dispersed and those who hate thee be driven from thy face." (Numbers 10:35). More generally, there are three kinds of decoration: cut and mounted garnets, gold filigree, and animal patterns.
Most of the garnet decoration uses the cloisonné technique, setting thin slices of garnet cut to fit in the pattern made by gold wire Stamped gold foil placed beneath the garnet allowed light to reflect back, enhancing the brilliance and making its colour a darker red. Some pieces are decorated with stylised animals interlaced in the Anglo-Saxon Style II. There are two sources of garnet in the hoard. The very small garnets came from the Czech Republic and the larger cut garnets are from the Indian subcontinent.
Scientific analysis has also revealed that the goldsmiths managed to remove some of the silver from the surface of the items so that the object appears even more golden. The technique is not understood fully but it shows a very sophisticated understanding of materials and technology.
More recently research has identified that approximately a third of the fragments in the Staffordshire Hoard come from a very high-status helmet, and two reconstructions were created over an 18 month period by a team of specialists. The fragments in the Hoard are too fragile to be put back together but the reconstructions have made use of digital technology to capture form and decoration as closely as possible based on the analysis of the fragments.
A silver gilt cheek piece and an animal headed terminal were identified in the initial finds, with another terminal being identified later. The second field survey in 2012 then picked up a second cheek piece. The terminals fitted onto a crest, and were decorated with Style II interlaced animals, including serpents and quadrupeds. Eventually some of the sheet metal fragments, some weighing less than 1g, were reconstructed and a silver band which had encircled the base of the helmet emerged showing kneeling or running spearmen.
None of the iron or leather of the original helmet survives so reconstruction was difficult. However, the crest, cheek pieces and decorative sheets all indicated a crested helmet, similar to the ones found at Sutton Hoo, Wollaston and Coppergate (York). Although so little of the helmet survives, it is considered the finest example of the type so far, with its golden ornamentation reminiscent of late Roman (4th century) helmets. It is also unique in that the grooved channel on the crest indicates it had an actual hair crest on it. The reconstructions have crests of pale horsehair dyed with madder to a vibrant red to match the dominant red and gold colours in the hoard. It has been suggested that the helmet should effectively be considered to represent a crown.
The reconstruction had to work out the substructure of the helmet, and this was done by analogy for other helmets and fittings matched to holes on the fragments where possible. The final product weighed in at around 3kg which is heavy but manageable. It has proved to be well balanced, and the original probably used iron instead of steel for the frame would have reduced the weight by 1 kg, and is the more likely material used in the original.
The two reconstructions are to be displayed at the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery and the Potteries Museum & Art Gallery at Stoke-on-Trent.

Fixed deposits or FDs, which offer higher interest rates than savings bank accounts, are not only offered by leading banks like State Bank of India (SBI) but also by small finance banks and post offices across the country. FD interest rates of small finance banks like Equitas Small Finance Bank, Utkarsh Small Finance Bank and Jana Small Finance Bank are much higher than those of SBI, HDFC Bank, and ICICI Bank. Even if you compare FD interest rates of small finance banks with those offered by post offices, you will be surprised that these banks offer better interest rates.
Why are fixed deposit interest rates of small finance banks higher than peers?
"Small finance banks serve a niche area and in order to grow their scale, the most important segment for them is their FD customers, unlike the banking behemoths for whom the current account customers and corporate customers are relatively more important. Small finance banks do offer higher rates because at this point they are aggressively trying to scale up their deposit franchise," said Rahul Agarwal, Director Wealth Discovery/EZ Wealth.
You can go into any post office and open a fixed deposit account via cash/ cheque. You can transfer this account to any post office and can open any number of accounts, according to indiapost.gov.in, the website of India Post.

We introduce III-V nitrides growth including GaN as well as InGaN by a newly developed atmospheric-pressure metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy system with a three layered flow channel which is a promising system for a large scale production. First, we have shown through computer simulation that a laminar flow of gases is maintained at 1000 °C in the three layered flow channel. Second, as a part of epitaxial results, we have found that the surface roughness of a low temperature-grown buffer layer on sapphire substrates, which can be measured by atomic force microscope, should be minimum in order to grow high quality GaN. We also report the growth of a double heterostructure of Ino. 15Gao.85N/GaN which shows a strong near band-edge emission in room temperature photoluminescence.

Alexis Texas is the New Face of Sport Porno
By joseph / October 26, 2022 October 26, 2022
Who is Alexis Texas?
What is sport porno?
Alexis Texas and Sport Porno
How did Alexis Texas get into sport porno?
What does Alexis Texas bring to sport porno?
The Future of Sport Porno
What does the future of sport porno look like?
What is Alexis Texas's role in the future of sport porno?
Alexis Texas is the New Face of Sport Porno is an article discussing the recent trend of athletes appearing in pornographic videos.
Alexis Texas is a pornographic actress, director, and featured dancer. Texas has been in the adult entertainment industry since 2006 and has starred in over 500 films. Texas is known for her large buttocks, and has won several awards for her performances.
Alexis Texas is an American pornographic actress.
Born in Panama on May 25, 1985, Alexis Texas was raised in a small town near San Antonio, Texas. After high school she moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in pornography.
In 2007 Alexis made her adult film debut with the Shane's World series College Amateur Tour In Texas. Her first scene was an interracial threesome with Gia Paloma and Jack Venice in Shane's World Pink Panties 6. After appearing in over 100 titles Alexis has become one of the most popular and recognizable faces in the industry. In 2009 she launched her own production company, Alexis Texas Entertainment, which produces her signature series BigBootyTrouble.
Alexis has appeared on the cover of numerous magazines including Penthouse, Hustler, Club International, and Cheri. She was featured as the Pet of the Month for Penthouse magazine in July 2009 and as the Pet of the Year runner-up for 2010. In 2012 she was named by CNBC as one of the 12 most popular stars in porn.
Alexis is also a mainstream personality and has appeared as a guest on The Howard Stern Show, The Tyra Banks Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, andEntourage.
Sport porno is a genre of pornography that combines sex and sports. The term was first coined in 2001 by adult film director Axel Braun. Sport porno typically features sex acts performed during or after sporting events, such as football, basketball, baseball, or boxing. However, it can also include other activities such as yoga, weightlifting, or even cheerleading. Sport porno often has an athletic theme, with performers dressed in sporty clothing or uniforms. The genre has become increasingly popular in recent years, as more people become interested in watching athletes engage in sexual activity.
Alexis Texas, the popular adult film actress, is the new face of Sport Porno. This comes as a surprise to many because Alexis Texas is known for her work in the adult industry and not in the sports world. Nevertheless, she is the new face of Sport Porno.
Before she was the face of Sport Porno, Alexis Texas was just another girl with a dream. Growing up in the small town of Castroville, Texas, she always knew she wanted to be in the adult industry. After honing her skills performing in various strip clubs, she made the move to Los Angeles and quickly became one of the most sought-after performers in the business.
In recent years, Alexis has continued to push boundaries in the adult industry, appearing in everything from mainstream films to fetish videos. But it was her work with Sport Porno that really caught our attention. With her stunning good looks and athletic body, she's the perfect fit for a company that specializes in creating content for sports fans who also happen to enjoy watching sexy women get down and dirty.
We sat down with Alexis to learn more about her decision to join Sport Porno, what it's like being the face of the company, and what fans can expect from her in the future.
Alexis Texas is one of the most popular starlets in the porn industry, with a large and loyal fan base. She's also become one of the most in-demand performers, with a huge array of projects in different genres. Now, she's added another string to her bow by becoming the new face of Sport Porno.
Sport Porno is a site that specializes inlocker room sex scenes, and Alexis is the perfect person to be their new ambassador. With her incredible body and natural sexuality, she epitomizes everything that Sport Porno is about. She's sure to bring even more fans to the site, and we can't wait to see what she does next!
Alexis Texas is the new face of Sport Porno. Sport Porno is a new sub-genre of porn that is growing in popularity. This type of porn features athletes or sporting events.
Porn star Alexis Texas is the new face of Sport Porno, a company that produces pornographic videos with a sports theme. This is a major development in the world of pornography, as it represents a shift in the way that porn is being consumed.
Traditionally, most pornography has been consumed by men. However, sport porno is specifically geared towards women. This is a strategic move on the part of Sport Porno, as they are attempting to tap into a new market.
It is not yet clear how successful this new venture will be. However, it does represent a change in the way that pornography is being produced and consumed. This could be the start of a new trend in the industry.
Alexis Texas is one of the most popular faces in the adult entertainment industry, and she is also one of the biggest names in sport porno. Texas has starred in some of the most popular sport porno films, and she has also been featured in mainstream magazines such as Hustler and Playboy.
In recent years, Texas has become increasingly vocal about her love of sport porno, and she has even launched her own production company called Alexis Texas Entertainment. With her own production company, Texas is able to control every aspect of her films, from the casting to the final product.
Texas's love of sport porno stems from her own personal experiences as an athlete. She was a gymnast growing up, and she says that she loves the physicality of sport porno. "I like how athletic it is," she says. "I like how there's always something happening."
Texas is also drawn to sport porno because of the way it makes her feel. "It makes me feel really powerful," she says. "When I'm performing, I feel like I can do anything."
As the face of sport porno, Alexis Texas is helping to change the way people think about adult films. She is showing that sport porno can be sexy, exciting, and empowering for both men and women.

Microsoft User Experience Advisor - Where's the User Experience?
In a move to embrace the Canadian UX and design community, Microsoft recently announced a job opening for a User Experience Advisor intern to promote it's upcoming Expression software lineup.
But here's my problem: as far as I can tell, none of the candidates have demonstrated any knowledge of user experience or the needs of the user experience community. Wake up! It's not about you or your resume - I want to know that you can empathize with and understand my needs as a designer, information architect, or web developer. If you want to talk to creatives, you need to understand the design process and how Microsoft's new tools fit in to the larger picture. For a primer on innovative and creative thinking, why not learn from the best: check out what IDEO's Tom Kelley has written about the power of design in solving tomorrow's business problems: The Art of Innovation and The Ten Faces of Innovation, and learn what design thinking is all about.
So, if you're thinking of applying, check out the CANUX2006 conference blog and learn about the latest issues in our community. Also, how about conducting some preliminary user research? Send a friendly email to the UXIrregulars group and ask us about our needs. We're more than willing to help and can't wait to hear from you!

Edited by Douglas L. Noordsy, M.D.
Exercise, a healthy diet, stress management, sound sleep: Most practitioners would agree that living well can mitigate the impact of mental disorders. Yet many are unprepared to address lifestyle factors in their care of patients.
Lifestyle Psychiatry seeks to instill confidence by collating and analyzing the impressive emerging body of evidence that supports the efficacy of healthy lifestyle practices—both as the primary intervention and in conjunction with traditional treatments such as psychopharmacology or psychotherapy—in preventing and managing psychiatric disorders.
This volume examines the impact of lifestyle interventions—from exercise, yoga, and tai chi to mindfulness and meditation, diet and nutrition, and sleep management—on psychiatric disorders, including depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder, schizophrenia, and addiction. Readers can readily find data to support the use of specific lifestyle interventions for a patient presenting with a specific disorder.
Detailed descriptions of the mechanisms of each lifestyle intervention also prepare practitioners to educate their patients on the specific neurobiological and psychological effects of these interventions to support their recovery. With chapters that focus on developing a robust therapeutic alliance and inspiring patients to assume responsibility for their own well-being, this guide provides a framework for lasting, sustainable lifestyle changes.
Additionally, the book discusses the impact of the provider's lifestyle on clinical behavior and the implications of lifestyle medicine and psychiatry for health care systems and population health, offering a broader examination of the important role this new field can play in leading a sophisticated, holistic approach to optimizing wellness.

Lifestyle Psychiatry provides an opportunity to step into often overlooked strategies to adopt healthy living habits. The importance of physical activity, movement, mind-body connections, sleep, and nutrition are described in great detail to help providers incorporate these interventions into treatment of psychiatric disorders. Too often, these elements are overlooked and result in further suffering. This superb book describes lifestyle practices to implement and advances the field of psychiatry and well-being.—Todd Stull, M.D., Senior Associate Athletic Director – Performance, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Athletic Department, President of the International Society for Sports Psychiatry
This comprehensive text provides an evidence-based approach to the burgeoning field of lifestyle psychiatry. The core principles highlighted in this book empower physicians to guide patients toward a holistic approach to cure both their mind and their body ailments and ultimately to live a life free of disease. This book is a must-read for psychiatrists and all physicians invested in the practice of lifestyle medicine.—Michael Fredericson, M.D., FACSM, Professor and Director, PM&R Sports Medicine; founder, Stanford Lifestyle Medicine Course, Stanford University School of Medicine
Lifestyle Psychiatry is essential reading for anyone seeking to provide comprehensive care for people experiencing mental illness. Emphasizing the whole person, both physically and spiritually, this book provides numerous evidence-based suggestions for reaching people through exercise, meditation, diet, and other nonpharmacological treatments. Harnessing these underutilized and cost-effective treatments can provide patients with improved outcomes and a greater sense of inclusion in the management of their illness.—Jacob S. Ballon, M.D., M.P.H., Clinical Associate Professor and Director, INSPIRE Clinic; Medical Director, H2 Inpatient Unit; Section Chief, Specialty Psychiatry Clinics, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Stanford University

THE TWELVE STEPS OF ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS
"We admitted we were powerless over alcohol - that our lives had become unmanageable."
"Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity."
"Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood him"
"Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves."
"Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs."
"Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character."
"Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings."
"Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all."
"Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others."
"Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it."
STEP ELEVEN:
"Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscience contact with God as we understood him, praying only for knowledge of his will for us and the power to carry that out."
STEP TWELVE:
"Having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs."
Reprinted from Alcoholics Anonymous©, Fourth Edition, Pg 59-60 with permission from A.A. World Services, Inc.
THE TWELVE TRADITIONS OF ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS
TRADITION ONE
"Our common welfare should come first; personal recovery depends upon A.A. unity."
TRADITION TWO
"For our group purpose there is but one ultimate authority - a loving God as he may express himself in our group conscience. Our leaders are but trusted servants; they do not govern."
TRADITION THREE
"The only requirement for A.A. membership is a desire to stop drinking."
TRADITION FOUR
"Each group should remain autonomous except in matters affecting other groups or A.A. as a whole."
TRADITION FIVE
"Each A.A. group has but one primary purpose - to carry the message to the alcoholic who still suffers."
TRADITION SIX
"An A.A. group ought never endorse, finance or lend the A.A. name to any facility or outside enterprise, lest problems of money, property, and prestige divert us from our primary purpose."
TRADITION SEVEN
"Every A.A. group ought to be fully self-supporting, declining outside contributions."
TRADITION EIGHT
"Alcoholics Anonymous should remain forever nonprofessional, but our service centers may employ special workers."
TRADITION NINE
"A.A., as such, ought never be organized, but we may create service boards or committees directly responsible to those they serve."
TRADITION TEN
"Alcoholics Anonymous has no opinion on outside issues; hence the A.A. name ought never be drawn into public controversy"
TRADITION ELEVEN
"Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio, and films."
TRADITION TWELVE
"Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions, ever reminding us to place principles before personalities."
Reprinted from Twelve Steps And Twelve Traditions, pg 5-8, with permission of A.A. World Services, Inc.
THE TWELVE CONCEPTS OF ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS
The Twelve concepts for World Service were written by A.A.'s co-founder Bill W., and were adopted by the General Service Conference of Alcoholics Anonymous in 1962. The Concepts are an interpretation of A.A.'s world service structure as it emerged through A.A.'s early history and experience. The short form of the Concepts reads:
Final responsibility and ultimate authority for A.A. world service should always reside in the collective conscience of our whole fellowship.
CONCEPT TWO
The General Service Conference of A.A. has become, for nearly every practical purpose, the active voice and the effective conscience of our whole society on its world affairs.
CONCEPT THREE
To insure effective leadership, we should endow each element of A.A. - the Conference, the General Service Board and its service corporations, staffs, committees, and executives - with a traditional "right of decision."
CONCEPT FOUR
At all responsible levels, we ought to maintain a traditional "Right of Participation," allowing a voting representation in reasonable proportion to the responsibility that each must discharge.
CONCEPT FIVE
Throughout our structure, a traditional "Right of Appeal" ought to prevail, so that minority opinion will be heard and personal grievances receive careful consideration.
CONCEPT SIX
The Conference recognizes that the chief initiative and active responsibility in most world service matters should be exercised by the trustee members of the Conference acting as the General Service Board.
CONCEPT SEVEN
The Charter and Bylaws of the General Service Board are legal instruments, empowering the trustees to manage and conduct world service affairs. The Conference Charter is not a legal document; it relies upon tradition and the A.A. purse for final effectiveness.
CONCEPT EIGHT
The trustees are the principle planners and administrators of over-all policy and finance. They have custodial oversight of the separately incorporated and constantly active services, exercising this through their ability to elect all the directors of these entities.
CONCEPT NINE
Good service leadership at all levels is indispensable for our future functioning and safety. Primary world leadership, once exercised by the founders, must necessarily be assumed by the trustees.
CONCEPT TEN
Every service responsibility should be matched by an equal service authority, with the scope of such authority well defined.
CONCEPT ELEVEN
The trustees should always have the best possible committees, corporate service directors, executives, staffs, and consultants. Composition, qualifications, induction procedures, and rights and duties will always be matters of serious concern.
CONCEPT TWELVE
The Conference shall observe the spirit of A.A. tradition, taking care that it never becomes the seat of perilous wealth of power; that sufficient operating funds and reserve be its prudent financial principle; that it place none of its members in a position of unqualified authority over others; that it reach all important decisions by discussion, vote, and, and whenever possible, substantial unanimity; that it s actions never be personally punitive nor an incitement to public controversy; that it never perform acts of government, that, like the Society it serves, it will always remain democratic in though and action.

THE 9TH STEP PROMISES
"If we are painstaking about this phase of our development, we will be amazed before we are half way through. We are going to know a new freedom and a new happiness. We will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it. We will comprehend the word serenity and we will know peace. No matter how far down the scale we have gone, we will see how our experience can benefit others. That feeling of uselessness and self-pity will disappear. We will lose interest in selfish things and gain interest in our fellows. Self-seeking will slip away. Our whole attitude and outlook upon life will change. Fear of people and of economic insecurity will leave us. We will intuitively know how to handle situations which used to baffle us. We will suddenly realize that God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves.
Are these extravagant promises? We think not. They are being fulfilled among us - sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. They will always materialize is we work for them."
Reprinted from Alcoholics Anonymous©, Fourth Edition, Pg 83-84, with permission from A.A. World Services, Inc.
THE SERENITY PRAYER
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.
THE 3RD STEP PRAYER
"God, I offer myself to thee- to build with me and do with me as Thou wilt. Relieve me of the bondage of self, that I may better do Thy will. Take away my difficulties, that victory over them may bear witness to those I would help of Thy Power, Thy Love, and Thy Way of life. May I do Thy will always."
Reprinted from Alcoholics Anonymous©, pg 63, with permission from A.A. world Services, Inc.
THE 7TH STEP PRAYER
"My Creator, I am now willing that you should have all of me, good and bad. I pray that you now remove from me every single defect of character which stands in the way of my usefulness to you and my fellows. Grant me strength, as I go out from here to do your bidding."

Q: Edit previous record in the checkbox with php I have a problem to edit previous record by checkbox in php.My problem is when I press the edit button,all can show me previous info record,but only in the checkbox unable to show me the previous record. Below is my coding:
Checkbox html:

                        Pricing

                    <input type="checkbox" name="rm_option" id="rm_option" value="1"> RM </input>
                        <input type="checkbox" name="point_option" id="point_option" value="1"> Full Point </input>
                        <input type="checkbox" name="partial_option" id="partial_option" value="1"> Partial Point + RM </input>

Checkbox echo edit function:
<?php
$sql = "select * from promotion_list where id=" . $_GET['id'];
$arr_sql = db_conn_select($sql);
foreach ($arr_sql as $rs_sql) {
    foreach ($rs_sql as $key => $value) {
        ?>
                                $("#<?php echo $key ?>").val("<?php echo $value ?>");
        <?php
    }
    ?>
                            $("#filter_id").val('<?php echo $rs_sql['id'] ?>');
                            $("#promotion_content").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['promotion_content'] ?>');
                            $("#promotion_terms").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['promotion_terms'] ?>');
                            $("#promotion_instruction").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['promotion_instruction'] ?>');
                            $("#promotion_policy").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['promotion_policy'] ?>');
                            $("#rm_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['rm_option'] == 1:'checked':'' ?>');
                            $("#point_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['point_option'] == 1:'checked':'' ?>');
                            $("#partial_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['partial_option'] == 1:'checked':'' ?>');
    <?php
}
?>

I think should be my these coding problem (in the below coding), because these function cannot work to let me show the previous record in the checkbox, anyone can guide me how to solve it? Thanks.
$("#rm_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['rm_option'] == 1:'checked':'' ?>');
                            $("#point_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['point_option'] == 1:'checked':'' ?>');
                            $("#partial_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['partial_option'] == 1:'checked':'' ?>');

Below is my output only the checkbox unable to show the previous the tick record:

A: $("#rm_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['rm_option'] == 1:'checked':'' ?>');
$("#point_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['point_option'] == 1:'checked':'' ?>');
$("#partial_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['partial_option'] == 1:'checked':'' ?>');

change to:
$("#rm_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['rm_option'] == 1?'checked':'' ?>');
$("#point_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['point_option'] == 1?'checked':'' ?>');
$("#partial_option").jqteVal('<?php echo $rs_sql['partial_option'] == 1?'checked':'' ?>');
