Enterobacter infection can cause diseases such as bacteremia, lower respiratory tract infections, skin and soft-tissue infections, urinary tract infections, etc. Enterobacter could be isolated from natural environments. Enterobacter infections can require prolonged hospitalization and powerful and expensive antimicrobial agents. Increase in the number of resistant and multi-resistant strains of bacteria is a major concern to health officials worldwide. Therefore, the objective of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant Enterobacter sp. recovered from wild birds collected in Taif province, Saudi Arabia. Fifty isolates were recovered from cloacal samples of resident wild birds and 32 isolates from cloacal samples of migratory wild birds. Sixteen percent of the isolates from resident birds were multi-resistant to 3-4 groups of antimicrobials, and 84% of the isolates were multi-resistant to 5-10 groups of antimicrobials. Six percent of the isolates from migratory birds were multi-resistant to four groups of antimicrobials and 94% of the isolates were multi-resistant to 5-10 groups of antimicrobials. Sixty-five percent of the most potent multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial isolates (> 7 antibiotics) belonged to Enterobacter cancerogenus. Aminoglycoside (strA and strB), b-lactam (blaTEM), tetracycline (tetA and tetB) and gentamycin (Gmr) resistance genes were detected in all MDR isolates. Multiple plasmids of high molecular weights were found in the same MDR host strain. This suggests that there is a potential for multidrug-resistant bacterial transmission between birds. This study highlights the role of wild birds in the dissemination of multidrug-resistant bacteria and antimicrobial resistance genes around the world.

When is it time for Pet Hospice Care?
Look at old photos and videos: Think of how your pet looked and behaved prior to illness or aging. We recommend looking at photos or videos of your pet from before because.changes are sometimes gradual and hard to recognize.
Monitor good and bad days: We recommend marking good and bad days on a calendar.and even distinguishing morning from evening when possible. If the bad days start to outweigh the good, it may be time to consider hospice care.
List 3-5 things your pet enjoys: Write a list of a few things that your pet likes to do. If your pet is no longer able to enjoy these things, it may be time to consider hospice.
While your veterinarian cannot make the decision for you, it is always wise to ask him or her for help.
Learn more and contact us about hospice care on our page deciated to this important service.

The advent of science and know-how has introduced so many progress in the complete world. Research by faculty and students in the Division of Expertise and Society (and different work at Stony Brook College's Waste Reduction and Management Institute) underlay the findings of the story. We applied a new portal design to mirror these realities using daring graphics and enhanced concentrate on interactive providers. Right now's legislation enforcement teams are getting access to exceptionally superior know-how for use in combating crime. Individuals are self-employed as we speak as a result of technology performs its function to make that potential. This group's primary focuses are investigating the technology wants of the future and researching the best way to make those expertise needs a actuality. Even as you might be studying this subject, the importance of Science and Know-how is what makes it attainable.

Son Rutlan (antigament grafiat incorrectament Son Rullán o Son Rul·lan) és un barri de Palma del districte de Llevant. Limita a llevant amb els habitatges de Mare de Déu de Lluc, al nord amb Son Cladera pel carrer Arqueisbe Miquel Roca, a ponent també amb Son Cladera, pel Camí de Can Mallol, i al sud amb el Viver pel carrer d'Aragó. El 2018 tenia 1182 habitants.

El barri és força heterogeni i s'ha format en diverses onades. Primer tot eren terres de la possessió de Son Rutlan, d'on el barri pren el nom. La família Rutlan en fou propietària el . A la postguerra s'hi va bastir un quarter militar d'aviació i tot un seguit d'habitatges unifamiliars que seguien l'estètica de les colònies de l'Institut Nacional de Colonització, tot al sud de les vies del tren. Anys més tard s'urbanitzà la part de l'altra banda de les vies, amb un establit de xalets i l'escola i l'institut, CEIP Son Rutlan i IES Son Rutlan. El quarter s'anà abandonant, i el 1999 es desmantellà i en el seu lloc s'hi bastiren sis illetes de pisos, un parc i les instal·lacions dels Serveis Ferroviaris de Mallorca. Les antigues cases de Son Rutlan, esbucades a finals del , es trobaven allà on hi ha les cotxeres d'SFM.

When I try again, I get "Build failed: The process cannot access the file 'C:\Flare\Output\....Title.xml' because it is being used by another process.	"
Yet another person trying is told that Microsoft Word isn't installed (it is).
First, close the project and delete the Analyzer and Output files, then open the project and try again. That might fix it.
If that doesn't work, clean the project and try again.
If that doesn't work, check that your .NET installation is still ok, and repair it from Control Panel.
After that, I have no suggestions so wait and see if anyone else comes up with anything. How very frustrating for you!
Hmm unfortunately I can't clean my project; when I try, the dialog box stretches off the screens so I can't confirm the operation and the dialog box has no scroll bars so I can reach the button.
Build failed: Generation of output can not be completed.
The message filter indicated that the application is busy. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8001010A (RPC_E_SERVERCALL_RETRYLATER).
There are too many spelling and grammatical mistakes in Title.xml to continue displaying them. etc.
Did this begin as an imported file? If so, is Target > General > Auto-Sync checked? That error make it sound as though Flare is accessing Word, which is choking on choking on spelling issues (been there) and then hanging, which causes the build to fail because Word isn't answering.

'Common Scandinavian' is a term often used for the Germanic language spoken in Scandinavia in the period after the 'Great Migrations' in which the organization of power was still local and tribal (c.550-c.l050). According to the historians Jordanes (c.550) and Procopius (c.554), there were many small tribal kings in the area which is now Scandinavia, all rivalling to extend their domain at the expense of the others. Of these, the dynasties of the Skjoldungs in Denmark and the Ynglings in Sweden and Norway were the most prominent. Like Common Germanic, Common Scandinavian is attested in runic inscriptions.
names datable to this period, runic inscriptions, and later manuscripts, which either go back to an earlier oral tradition or are copies of earlier documents now lost.
Regarding the runic inscriptions, it is interesting to note that there are no or very few Danish inscriptions from around 600 to 800 and only a few, though very important ones, from Norway and Sweden. Around 800 we encounter a revival of runic writing in Denmark, but now in a new alphabet, the younger futhark. During this period there are 412 Danish inscriptions, 240 of them on stones erected by wealthy families to commemorate their dead. The younger futhark reached Norway around 800, but only a few inscriptions are preserved from this area. Runic writing is also found in the British Isles, Greenland and the Faroes, but in Iceland it is surprisingly sparse and late. Sweden became the great home of runic epigraphy in the younger futhark with more than 2,500 preserved inscriptions, testifying to the wealth and power of the leading families and at the same time providing valuable information concerning the fates of those who fell abroad on Viking expeditions. The fragments of poetry found in the runic inscriptions belong to the rich poetic tradition represented in the later Old Icelandic manuscripts.
Since the peoples of the north were linked together primarily by sea routes, it is easy to see how three separate centres of power began to emerge, a southern one (Denmark), a Baltic one (Sweden) and an Atlantic one (Norway). The Danish kings controlled the approaches to the Baltic, the Swedes occupied the region around Lake Malar, and the Norwegians controlled the ijords, primarily those on the west coast where navigation was best and access to foreign wealth close at hand. The establishment of a Danish archbishopric of the Roman Catholic Church in Lund in 1104, a Norwegian archbishopric in Trondheim (Nidaros) in 1152, and a corresponding Swedish archbishopric in Uppsala in 1164 reflects this political division of Scandinavia into Danish, Norwegian and Swedish kingdoms.
Towards the end of the Viking Age we find a gradual splitting up of Common Scandinavian, initially into two branches: East Scandinavian, comprising the kingdom of Denmark and the southern two-thirds of Sweden and adjacent parts of Norway; and West Scandinavian, comprising most of Norway and the Norwegian settlements in the North Atlantic, in particular Iceland.
The East Scandinavian branch is not so much a distinct language as the sum of the innovations that encompassed Denmark, most of Sweden, and adjacent parts of Norway at the end of the Viking Age, splitting during the Middle Ages (1050-1340) into Old Danish, Old Swedish and Old Gutnish, the written language of the island of Gotland. Of these, only Danish and Swedish survived the later processes of political centralization and linguistic standardization.

Q: How to change just last JSON item I'm building an app for modifying existing json files. I have made all the classes that correspond to my json code. Most of the times I need to copy whole json collection and then just change a few things (like id, index, etc.).

Thank you in advance.

A: So, you're taking the last item of the collection:
OriginDestinationOptionRef oDORitem = originDestinationOptionRef.Last();

And adding it to the same collection:
originDestinationOptionRef.Add(oDORitem);

So the collection now contains two pointers to the same object. Then you take the last object in the collection and modify it, but because you've duplicated the reference instead of creating a new object, both the new entry and the one you've copied will change.
So you just need to create a new OriginDestinationOptionRef and add that to the collection, instead of copying an existing one.

A: This is where you go wrong:
OriginDestinationOptionRef oDORitem = originDestinationOptionRef.Last();
originDestinationOptionRef.Add(oDORitem);

This code gets the last item from the list and then adds a new reference to that very same object to the very same list. So the list becomes longer by 1 entry, but the last two entries are now pointing to the same object in memory (the original object, which you then proceed to change).
To solve this, create a new OriginDestinationOptionRef object:
var newItem = new OriginDestinationOptionRef();
originDestinationOptionRef.Add(newItem);

Then use your existing logic to set the properties of newItem.

Uh Oh- Apparently Now Bacon, Sausage or Alcohol is Not Good For You In Any Amounts??
Since this is an addiction treatment website, we highly encourage people to get sober if you are addicted to alcohol. For those of you who are not addicted to alcohol, it might be time to consider giving it up completely.
But wait now we have to give up bacon and sausage too? What am I supposed to do about my favorite McDonalds Breakfast sandwiches?
For those going through rehab and detox, it might come as no surprise that what you put into your body, you get out in performance. So eating clean, and healthy is super important when you are getting sober and staying sober.
Not sure about getting rid of bacon and sausage completely but read the rest of the article from its original source below.
A new set of health guidelines, released by the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) says that people can reduce their risk of cancer about 40% by completely eliminating alcohol, bacon, sausage, fatty meats, and beer from their diets.
The recommendations are part of a "ten point plan" that the WCRF says can help nearly halve your chances of getting cancer — though their guidelines may put a significant dent in your quality of life.


The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a grant of $9 million that will allow the Center for the Advancement of STEM Leadership (CASL) to widen and deepen its work to advance and accelerate diversity and inclusion in the nation's STEM higher education enterprise.
The Center will examine how leadership at Historically Black Colleges & Universities (HBCUs) has played a role in broadening the participation of African Americans in STEM. The results of this work are expected to aid HBCUs and other institutions of higher learning in developing a new generation of leaders to broaden participation in STEM.
Funded by the HBCU-Undergraduate Program at NSF, the project involves four partner institutions in higher education: the University of the Virgin Islands, the lead institution; Fielding Graduate University; North Carolina A&T State University; and the Association of American Colleges and Universities.


On Tuesday 27 November Rosie and Ruth from KTT attended the Woman 2000 Green Christmas Fair at the Seanscoil in Killorglin. The members of the Woman 2000 group had prepared a range of information and crafts for display, including recipes, samples of knitting and crochet, paper decorations, wreathes, ornaments made from saltdough, intricate sculptures made from icing sugar and decorated matchboxes.
Third, fourth, fifth and six classes from Scoil Mhuire all visited the fair to get tips about gifts and decorations that they can make at home. Some of the children had already begun working on their recycled Christmas decorations for the KTT decoration competition which is being held in Scoil Mhuire. The children went back to school armed with new ideas... and sweets!
We are very grateful to the Woman 2000 group for welcoming the children to their meeting and being so generous with their time and skills.
The volunteers worked hard all morning, cutting sleepers, moving topsoil and putting a covering of stones on the new bed.
A path cut into the bed invites people to look through the monument to the mountains beyond. Roses will be planted in the bed next week in order to provide vibrant colour during the summer months.
Thanks to all the volunteers for their hard work and particular thanks to Killorglin Community Council and South Kerry Development Partnership for securing funding to help make this project a success!
John, Liz and Ruth from the KTT committee were delighted to attend the Killarney Looking Good awards at the Malton on Monday 19 November. The aim of the awards ceremony is to acknowledge the fantastic work done by residents and business owners in maintaining estates, business premises, gardens and laneways in killarney throughout the year.
The awards ceremony culminated with the presentation of a special lifetime achievement award to Archdeacon Michael Murphy. Fr. Murphy was instrumental in Killarney's success in the TidyTowns competition in recent years, and TidyTowns groups from Sneem and Kenmare were also on hand to thank Fr. Murphy for the work he did in helping them to win the competition in the past. Anyone driving through Sneem, Kenmare or Killarney will see the lasting effects of Fr. Murphy's work.
Fr. Murphy's message is simple: focus on litter, weeds and tidiness. Fr. Murphy also stressed the importance of leading by example, by simply getting out and doing the work.
Thanks to Killarney Tidy Towns (and Fr. Murphy in particular) for their inspiration and encouragement - is feidir linn!
On Saturday 17 November Rosie and Ruth from KTT attended the final session of their master composter course.
The master composter course, which was organised by Kerry County Council and the EPA Stop Food Waste programme, educated participants about composting and food waste prevention. On Saturday the group had a chance to see composting in action at the community allotments in Moyderwell, Tralee.
Donal O'Leary from the Waste Down programme demonstrated a variety of composting systems at work. The image on the left shows a slatted wooden container full of compost and two containers of leaf mold.
While a compost heap should be covered to avoid it getting too moist, leaf mold needs more moisture so the leaf piles are not protected from the rain.
Donal advised that soft leaves (such as sycamore) will break down faster than tough leaves (such as oak).
Donal demonstrated a domestic wormery to the group. Tiger worms are added to a lined porous tray together with a mixture of bedding (broken egg cartons, cardboard, etc.) and food waste such as vegetable peelings. The active tray should be covered with a sheet of damp newspaper. This helps to stop any smells and it is a good indicator of moisture levels - if the sheet is drying out, moisture should be added to the wormery.
Once the initial tray begins to fill, another tray should be added on top and filled as normal. The worms will travel up to the new tray once they have digested the contents of the lower tray and converted them to worm castings.
The worm castings can be mixed with soil to make a great plant compost, and any liquid which drips into the collecting tray under the wormery can be used as a plant feed.
Donal advised that wormeries can be maintained indoors (a shed is ideal). A handful of gardening lime should be added to the wormery every now and then if the environment is becoming too acidic for the worms - you will know that this is happening if the amount of small white worms in the wormery increases.
The allotments are home to a large outdoor wormery (left) which sits on the ground. The outdoor wormery is simply a large flat wooden box with a tight-fitting lid and a number of small holes drilled into the base to allow for drainage.
The wormery had begun to fill with worm castings, so Donal and the group gathered bedding materials (leaves, shredded paper, egg cartons, cardboard) and steeped them in water to moisten them.
Donal moved the contents of the wormery to one side of the bin and added the fresh bedding. Food waste will be added to the fresh bedding and the worm castings can be removed from the bin once the worms have made their way over to their new environment.
The Moyderwell allotments has a functioning green cone digester (right) which is great for domestic food waste. The green cone is surrounded by thriving plants because the digester is enriching the soil.
Waste is simply added to the cone digester through the lid on top. Sachets of enzymes need to be added to the cone digester now and then to keep it working well.
Donal also showed the group a turning system which consists of three bays. Waste begins to break down in the first bay and starts to heat up. When the pile is moved to the next bay, the added air helps to feed the bacteria that are breaking down the waste. The pile in the final bay is finished compost.
In the afternoon the group split up and went to various locations in Tralee to inform the public about food waste and composting. All of the master composters who completed the course are expected to participate in educational events over the coming months to spread the word about waste minimisation.
Thanks to Donal O'Leary, Colum Gibson and Micheal O'Coilean for organising the course. Thanks also to the community allotments for their hospitality (and their fantastic barbecue!).
More images from the day are available in the gallery page of the KTT website.

Les 12 Heures de Sebring 1952 sont la  de l'épreuve et ne sont intégrées à aucun championnat, cas qui ne se reproduira pas lors des éditions suivantes de celle-ci. Elles ont été remportées le  par la Frazer Nash  de l'équipe Stuart Donaldson pilotée par Larry Kulok et Harry Gray.

Circuit

Les 12 Heures de Sebring 1952 se déroulent sur le Sebring International Raceway situé en Floride. Il est composé de deux longues lignes droites, séparées par des courbes rapides ainsi que quelques chicanes. Le tracé actuel diffère de celui de l'époque. Ce tracé a un grand passé historique car il est utilisé pour des courses automobiles depuis 1950. Ce circuit est célèbre car il a accueilli la Formule 1.

LEICESTER target Gianluca Lapadula is being lined up for a move to Serie A giants Lazio, according to reports in Italy.
The Pescara forward is believed to be on Claudio Ranieri's radar as the veteran boss seeks to add more firepower to his Premier League winning squad.
Lapadula has bagged 27 goals in 40 games to fire his current side into the Serie B play-offs this season and last week talked up a move to England.
"We would be dynamite together. We would be like two gladiators going into battle."
However, Leicester have been dealt a blow with reports in Italy suggesting Lazio have tabled a £7.7million (€10m) bid to keep the 26-year-old in Serie A.
Lapadula began his career with Juventus and has been linked with a return to Turin, while Napoli were also said to be readying a bid to secure his services.

Midst the snow and the cold of late winter, the upper decks of cruise ships provide a welcome escape, even if only in pictures. Today's selection is the pool decks of some ships we've been on, to see if you think a deck is a deck is a deck…so, do you?
There's always color and sunshine on pool decks and this one, on Navigator of the Seas, even includes a grandstand for spectators to watch!
On the Crown Princess, the adults-only area called the Sanctuary features the hot tubs that are capped with thatched roofs, adding to the ambiance of heat.
Decks (and ships) tend to be an oasis on the ocean, or in this case on the Mediterranean Sea on the Oceania Riviera, a ship that caters largely to adults.
The Norwegian Epic has always been famous for being different and as one of our favorite ships it delivers a pool area that is — like the Epic itself — unusual.
When ships are in port, as the Carnival Breeze was here in Miami, the rallying cry of "Everybody in the pool!" is still waiting to be heard.
The Celebrity Eclipse's top deck was a welcome respite when we crossed the Atlantic on her and nobody was swimming laps in this clearly divided pool.
Pools are welcome even in the ice fields that are the glaciers of Alaska…but it was the "hot" pools on the Coral Princess that were popular with passengers.

Mention the word "cruise" and the word "food" is usually not far behind. Today, we're giving you a "taste" of some of the dishes we've enjoyed on a variety of cruises and a variety of ships…
The presentation is as immaculate and tasteful as this Crown Princess chocolate raspberry dessert.
Seafood delicacies like this from the intimate, upscale Asian restaurant known as Red Ginger on the Oceania Riviera.
Hot Rock (525 degrees) is the name of this specialty at a specialty restaurant, Izumi, on Allure of the Seas.
Cheesecake (and wine to match) — the perfect postscript to a meal when dining in the renowned steakhouse on the Carnival Freedom.
A treat that comes when you have "Elegant Tea" on Solstice Class ships like the Celebrity Eclipse.
This baby's called "slimecakes" — the Nickelodeon spin on "pancakes" on the Norwegian Epic and, yes, it does taste better than it sounds or looks.
On the Coral Princess, the Chef's Table includes an old standby — surf 'n turf — or steak and lobster, exquisitely cooked and displayed, of course.
Every ship has them, the fabled dessert buffet, and this caloric delight is from Celebrity's newest ship, the Reflection.

Cruises Open Up The World Of Art
You don't have to appreciate fine art to enjoy some of the works you encounter in traveling the world on cruise ships — and there is art of some sort virtually everywhere you go. This is a collection of artistic impressions that have caught our eyes, or at least the lens of our cameras…
Love is grand, isn't it?…even when it's on display on the waterfront for South American-bound cruisers when they stop in the metropolis of Lima!
This was in Chicago, on the way to a cruise, and it's not Mrs. O'Leary's famous cow — it's the one made famous by baseball broadcaster Harry Caray, whose pet expression was "Holy Cow!"
Not quite sure what to make of this somewhat provocative work of art, in one of our favorite Spanish ports, so we simply gave her a name: Valentina of Valencia.
You'll find this on the streets of Vigo, Spain — where we'd stopped while on the Celebrity Eclipse — and our impression was somewhere in there must be a cowboy.
The beaches of Mexico, and throughout Central America and the Caribbean, are a great source of statues like this that mean more to the locals than the visitors.
It's hard to imagine that there's a larger carving of a bald eagle than this one where the Coral Princess — and all cruise ships — are docked in Ketchikan, Alaska.

Friday File: Favorite Cruise Ships
We've often been asked: "What's your favorite cruise ship?" It's a question often asked of anybody who cruises a lot by people who cruise a little, or less. Our answer, one we borrowed from the late John Maxtone-Graham, is always the same: "The one we're on." That's pretty much how we feel. When you love cruising, you rarely go on a cruise that you don't enjoy. At the risk of sounding like Pollyannas, to us cruises are just varying degrees of good. Having said that, over the last six years, these are the six cruise ships we enjoyed the most, for a variety of reasons…
Norwegian Epic: Critics always trash it, but in two cruises we've found the complaints mostly trivial.
Allure of the Seas: It's hard to believe anybody who is objective could find fault with this ship-that-has-it-all.
Coral Princess: In our world, she's the queen of Alaska, with a feel we call "comfortable in every way."
Costa Diadema: When you like all things Italian, as we do, you like the flagship of Italy's main cruise line.
Celebrity Eclipse: When you spend six days at sea, you either love or hate a ship — we loved the Eclipse.
Norwegian Sun: This has everything to do with our longest cruise, 19 days, on a ship that became "home."

Christmas Trifecta for Princess Cruises
Three reasons for Princess Cruises to feel like Christmas has already arrived this year, which happens to be the cruise line's 50th anniversary…
The Ruby Princess left Vancouver yesterday. No big deal…the Ruby Princess has been cruising in and out of the Canadian West Coast city all year. But December 15 is the latest date any Princess ship — maybe any cruise ship — has finished the season in Vancouver. If it were sports, you'd call this making the playoffs.
In a year that started earlier and ended later, Vancouver welcomed 32 ships and 800,000 cruise passengers. In addition to the annual Alaska cruises, there were some to Hawaii or the California coast by Princess ships. What happened yesterday was a winner for both Vancouver and Princess.
Cruise Fever fans picked Princess for "best Alaska cruise" for the second year in a row. Considering that Cruise Fever has only been polling its readers for three years, this is significant.
Having been on an Alaska cruise this year on the Star Princess, it's easy to understand why the voters feel the way they do. With seven ships going to Alaska from three ports (Seattle and San Francisco are the others), Princess has developed a reputation for quality of not just cruises but also the cruisetours that feature lodges owned by Princess.
This one's a sleeper. Literally.
Princess ships will have 44,000 new beds for heads to relax in, starting in February on the Coral Princess, Emerald Princess and Ruby Princess. The beds have been developed in conjunction with a certified sleep expert (did YOU know there were certified sleep experts?) and utilize the latest in mattress technology.
It will take about two years to outfit all 44,000, turning staterooms into sleep sanctuaries with a "sleep-friendly sensory experience" with "luxurious linens to soothing ocean sounds and relaxing aromas" — you get the idea.
Now if the Princess Luxury Beds are as comfortable as Westin's Heavenly Beds…
Hmm, a sleep-off?

As ETF investors carefully look over the current market environment, many are considering equity and fixed-income strategies that could help diversify and enhance an investment portfolio in a more trying environment.
On the recent webcast, Macro Strategies: Navigating Choppy Market Waters, Kevin Flanagan, Senior Fixed Income Strategist for WisdomTree, argued that supportive elements that previously bolstered the economy and U.S. markets are beginning to fade so investors should hold back expectations. While we continue to see the economy improve, with strong GDP, stable inflation and robust employment with rising wages, the economy is moving toward the later stages of the traditional business cycle and investors should take steps to adapt to the changes.
Some investors, though, remain cautious of the rebound, but Schwartz pointed out that there are also more defensive ETF strategies that may hold up better in these trying times. Specifically, he highlighted factor investments.
"The quality factor has outperformed in late stages of market cycles and during market slowdowns," Schwartz said.
"Quality stocks are well positioned for higher volatility, but active funds are underweight high quality stocks," he added.
ETF investors can look to a fund like the WisdomTree U.S. Quality Dividend Growth Fund (NASDAQ: DGRW) as a way to hone in on quality names and and still generate some extra cash on the side. DGRW includes companies with high long-term earnings-growth forecasts for the next three to five years and weights components based on the value of dividends they are expected to pay over the next year. The ETF is not heavily weighted to the rate-sensitive sectors that are often prominent in many yield-based dividend funds.

Dr Howard Archer, Chief UK & European Economist at IHS Global Insight said: "The stronger BBA mortgage approvals figures continue the stream of recent data and surveys indicating that housing market activity is now really stepping up a gear, supported by markedly strengthening consumer confidence and elevated employment, and fuelled by the Funding for Lending Scheme and the Help to Buy initiative."

Three Billboards, Wind River and Hollywood's Representation Problem
by Caspar Salmon
Great news for fans of racist and sexist films in which a grieving parent takes the law into their own hands after a young woman is raped and murdered: Hollywood conspired to grant us two of them over the last year. If you liked Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, you'll love Wind River!
The directorial debut of Sicario screenwriter, Taylor Sheridan, tells the story of Cory Lambert, a white, male tracker for the USA's Fish and Wildlife Service (as played by Jeremy Renner) who teams up with white, female FBI agent, Jane Banner (Elizabeth Olsen) to investigate the rape and murder of Natalie, a Native American woman on Wyoming's (real life) Wind River Reservation. Cory's close association with the indigenous community—his ex-wife is Native American—imbues him with the wisdom to act as an authority on their ways to Jane, a hapless and guileless, city-dweller who makes mistake after mistake, leading to injury, death, and forfeiture of trust by the victim's family, which affords Cory a series of opportunities to call out her errors in judgement, and ultimately save the day when her final jejune mishap leads to a gruesome stand off. In a coda, he enacts vigilante revenge on the crime's chief perpetrator, revisiting upon him the same grizzly fate that met Natalie.
Wind River's clomping, blinkered worldview, in which it's perfectly plausible to present the story of the disappearance of a young woman of colour from the perspective of a middle-aged white man, is galling. There is never the sense that there could be anything wrong with the way it gives women the role of pretty victims, pretty incompetents, or mutes. Neither does there seem to be an understanding that its presentation of sexual violence, filmed unflinchingly in flashback as a sort of key to understanding the film, is egregiously explicit. There is, on the contrary, a palpable worthiness, a grating sincerity, as if it has shouldered its immense burden as a favour to the voiceless. Indeed, there's something almost endearing in its naivety—its self-identification as a crusading film-that-could—right down to the solemn end title cards, which highlight the real-life issue of sexual assault of women on reservations. All the while, the film's efforts at representation are confined to secondary roles, with plum parts as a borderline useless police officer for veteran Native American actor Graham Greene, and as the grieving mother—unspeaking, violent—for Althea Sam.
Is Wind River racist? You won't find that claim in many reviews. A blogger in Spokane highlights its positioning of Cory as white saviour, while a review in the feminist Another Journal, makes the excellent point that Wind River is obsessed with female Indigenous suffering, offering up an intersectional critique of its white male perspective. But the film is clearly racist as evidenced by the way it others, displaces and silences Native American people; plonks a white man in their midst to do the job properly, and looks uncritically at socio-political issues quite beyond its narrow compass as an issues-led thriller.
So it is, now, with Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, which has gone above and beyond what might be required of a film to be termed racist these days, but still reaps rewards while comments about its failings are largely kept to the sidelines. Leaving us with a ridiculous 'debate' about whether a film that centres a racist police officer who is known to have brutalised black people, is actually racist—a point of such banality that it feels demeaning to posit. In fact, the question of Three Billboards' racism does not so much hinge on whether the film paints Sam Rockwell's character as a monster or whether it redeems him—and naturally, it redeems him—but on the fact of his being a central character. Why are we even talking about him after years of campaigning by Black Lives Matter, following numerous high profile instances of racialised police brutality in the United States? Why does this police officer take up screen time at the expense of people of colour who between them get about seven lines in the film including "You go girl!")? Why does a woman of colour exist purely as a plot device as film journalist, Ashley Clarke asked?
Three Billboards displays the same hamfistedness as Wind River in scarcely realising that some things are simply not its province to address while being let off the hook by the same token as Wind River. Most of the film's racial problems—it also trades in sexism, to which we will attend in a minute—are to do with representation, the sole vehicle for racial infraction that still slips through the critical net. Of course, Three Billboards also blithely uses racially charged language; whopping out the N-word several times, and chucking in a dig at Mexicans for good measure—but it proofs itself against criticism on that front with the facile defence that its characters speak like that, and the film is satirising them. But it is not a documentary, and is not merely observing these characters. Instead, they are written as offensive to an extent that defies credibility. For example: Mildred deploys the N-word, despite ostensibly having a black best friend, in a scene that smirks at you can and can't say these days.
Once again, it boils down to representation, and the way Three Billboards frames its perspective. Does Martin McDonagh, a white middle-aged Irish playwright, have any sense that some issues are not in his purview—are not his to be addressed? It does not appear that way. The question of police brutality is posed almost as a piquant plot point, which is somehow redressed by having a black police officer (with scarcely any agency) descend on the town to take command of Ebbing's force half-way through the film. The abiding impression when watching Three Billboards is of a writer-director merrily shifting toys about in his playpen, inventing fantasias to his own liking, making the dolls say bad words.
Questions of perspective and representation such as these seem to designate a cultural shift by pointing at cosseted, straight, white male directors hanging on for dear life to their erstwhile hegemony. Ira Madison III draws shrewd, angry parallels between Three Billboards and the much-reviled Crash in an article for the Daily Beast, showing how this type of racial insensitivity, with easy messages about personal journeys and redemption, is the meat and drink of a certain type of white audience. His article tells us, too, of a history of white directors—I like to imagine them wearing demi-lune glasses, with a Wikipedia tab open to 'racism'—allotting themselves the power and credibility to create these pictures.
This pattern is not confined to films depicting racial disparity or injustice. As a white man I'm scarcely best placed to castigate white writers for touching on issues outside their remit (and the writers of colour I have already mentioned, as well as Wesley Morris in the New York Times, have touched on Three Billboards racism far more competently than me,) but as a queer one I see the way straight directors colonise queer stories in this very manner. You only need to look to The Dallas Buyers' Club, an Oscar-courting drama from 2013, to see how a straight white director appropriates a queer story, retooled for straight audiences. Again, representation and perspective are the keys to understanding the latent (or overt) homo- or transphobia on display. No queer men are given main roles in this story about the AIDS crisis, and a straight man plays Ron Woodroof, the straight cis-male saviour of the predominantly gay affected AIDS sufferers of the time, who gets over his homophobia and transphobia while in contact with Rayon, a transwoman played by straight cis-male Jared Leto. Woodroof is even given a romance storyline with a doctor played by Jennifer Garner to cement his straightness, when, in point of fact, acquaintances of Woodroof's state that he fully assumed his bisexuality and was not in the least bit homophobic.
Just as racism is depicted in Three Billboards and Wind River, homophobia in The Dallas Buyers' Club is perceived not as a structural question but one of individual choices that can be surmounted or allowed to make a monster of you. We are lacking a proper understanding, in these works, of the causes of injustice, of misogyny, racism, homophobia and the intersection of all three, because of male directors of privilege granting themselves the right to frolic in a garden they've never visited before. The question of prejudice should not be up for 'debate' in these cases. The racism of Three Billboards will be as flagrantly obvious and unpalatable to future generations as blacking up is to us now. We need our reviewery to address these questions head-on, rather than taking these films' ideas on their own terms, to critique these aberrations as detrimental to the fabric of the art.
Three Billboards just landed the jackpot at the BAFTAs, and is extremely well placed to haul in some gold at the forthcoming Academy Awards. I find it hard not to see its success as a rebuke to the advances made by films such as Get Out, not to be struck by parallels between this awards season and the stand-off between La La Land and Moonlight last year. To jog the memory, La La Land was the film by a white writer-director in which a white man figures as the keeper of the true spirit of jazz music, saving it from the modern approximations and vulgarities of a black man. This year, in Get Out, we have a film that confronts prejudice head-on with beady and unrelenting intelligence, turning the very viewing experience on its head, inviting audiences of colour and gleefully mocking its liberal white audience. How not to see the favours bestowed on Three Billboards—a film that infantilises, pacifies and excuses its white audience—as the film industry's sly corrective to that?

Terry Brauhn was a wonderful man that was loved, is greatly missed, and will always be cherished. On Thursday, March 29th, 2018, Terry, beloved husband, adored father, and friend to many passed away suddenly at the age of 53 years old.

In 1993 Terry and Sonia welcomed their firstborn, Tasha, and 1998 their second child, Christopher.

In the first video of a new weekly series called Advanced Training Techniques, BPI Sports co-founder, James Grage, shares his plans and objectives for this new video series, which centers around training philosophies and techniques for targeting the development of weak muscle groups, and building a well-balanced physique.
Everyone has that one body part that's just stubborn or difficult to build. For James, it was building width in his back. No matter what he did, he couldn't get the size and shape in his lats that he was looking for. James says he was performing mass building exercises like heavy bar rows, deadlifts and lat pull-downs. Even when competing in bodybuilding, he was putting on size, but he still wasn't able to bring up that weak body part in proportion to the rest of his physique. He wasn't changing his shape, but instead was just becoming a bigger version of the same physique. Weight training isn't just about getting bigger, it's about selectively shaping and sculpting your body to create balance and aesthetics.
In his Advanced Training Techniques video series, James emphasizes that you should know more about an exercise than just what muscle group it's supposedly working. This is why in each video he'll break down the basics of all muscles that assist in any given movement, where they originate, where they insert and what movement they're responsible for. This will not only help you effectively target your weak body parts, but by understanding what's happening underneath the skin, you can develop the necessary mind/muscle connection required for really targeting and building a muscle. The series will develop with each video as James takes us into the gym to share tips, tricks and techniques that he's acquired over his 25 years of experience to make every exercise more effective.
In episode 1 of Advanced Training Techniques, James teaches us how to get better muscular contractions while training, by understanding the muscle length/tension relationship. A muscle can only contract, which means it generates its force by pulling two points closer together, never pushing. In order to grow your muscles in the gym, you'll need the ideal length for ideal tension for the strongest possible contraction. James' first Advanced Training Techniques video discusses how to take this information and apply it in the gym. Keep watching for more on muscle and length tension and make sure you subscribe to the YouTube channel for more training videos.

The Meertens Institute (Dutch Meertens Instituut) in Amsterdam is a research institute for Dutch language and culture within the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (Koninklijke Nederlandse Akademie van Wetenschappen or KNAW).

Its two departments are Dutch ethnology, focusing on indigenous and exotic cultures in the Netherlands and their interaction, and Variation, focusing on structural, dialectal, and sociolinguistic research on language variation within the Netherlands, with an emphasis on grammar and onomastic variety.

History
The institute began in 1930 as a Dialect Office; the Folklore office was added in 1940, and Onomastics Office in 1948. These three bureaus came under the umbrella of the Central Commission for Dutch Social Research. The Secretary of the three bureaus, P.J. Meertens, was the first director and retired in 1965.  The institute was renamed PJ Meertens Institute in 1979.  In 1998 it was renamed as simply the Meertens Institute.  Since 2001, the institute also houses the Secretariat of the International Society for Ethnology and Folklore (SIEF). In September 2016 the Meertens has moved to the historic 'Spinhuis' building in downtown Amsterdam, jointly with the Huygens/ING institute for the history of the Netherlands (also a KNAW institute, coming from The Hague).

The ethnology department is well known for its research in and databases on Dutch songs and folktales, pilgrimage culture and saint cults, probate inventories, farmhouses, feast and rituals and religious cultures. The audio collection in the field of phonetics with recordings in the field of speech acquisition and dialects, formed at the University of Amsterdam by Dr. Louise Kaiser and Meertens, is housed at the Meertens Institute. The Meertens Institute also hosts a project on alternative medicine.

For the organization to be governed effectively and efficiently, and also to successiful achieve its programatic goals, there must be a strong oversight system. Wajibika has set in place a governing organ; the Board of Directors made of six vibrant individuals.
The structure adopts the Chairman – Executive Director – Head of Programmes – Programme Managers mode in its chain of command. Wajibika central administration is responsible for strategic decision making, while most of other decisions are made at the lower levels. In this respect, the staffs perform the programme functions with assistance of administrators.
The organization decision-making process follows meeting structure, ranging from Departmental to Board of Directors meetings through management meetings. In all these meetings staffs are represented.
Exceptionally, the Wajibika structure portrays good governance, and is geared towards attainment of the core values and achievement of organizational objectives.

in your multithreaded code how does that work??? You need a lock around the constructor of that one and it's catch 22. Isn't function statics initialized on the first "entry" of a thread?
So when I use this idiom, I make the CriticalSection "file" static so the constructor will be run by the CRT init.
I don't know if the above is different between compilers?
You are completely correct. I wanted to keep the example simple but I made it too simple. Its bad code and I need to change it.
Thanks for seeing the error and telling me about it. I appreciate the constructive feedback.
great work, can you please update the example code with "static functions"and with "static CriticalSection s_criticalsection;" like Jonas's above comment..
I updated the example code in May to remove the function static.
Using a function static like this is unsafe with multiple threads. There is a potential for a race condition. The s_criticalsection object is constructed on the first entry into the function. If two (or more) threads enter the function concurrently for the first entry each thread may construct its own s_criticalsection object.
In the file static version you pay for the construction of s_criticalsection regardless of whether Process() is called.
When I revised the example code I used a class example because I think it's a more interesting case and because I had originally intended to make a point about lazy construction.

Memorial Day weekend. Big noisy movies in the cineplexes. War movies on cable, including Kelly's Heroes and Rambo III. The 99th running of the Indianapolis 500. PBS shows the National Memorial Concert with Joe Montagne and Gary Sinise. Picnics. Beach. A day off. One whole Facebook post which showed a red poppy on a hat. 10pm Sunday night and someone has just set off some fireworks… in the rain.
This morning the Sunday Grand Rapids Press had an article about two little girls who started something in April of 1862. And there is where my story comes from.

Q: Bash executes comands out of sequance sometimes I running multiple commands in bash in parallel and need to get output that is delimited so receiving script could separate the values.
I attempted to do this in few ways  but it seems that any echo is executed instantly and anything following after.
So I am trying to find a way to separate input from each output with separator preceding output.
I actually use curl request that may take 50-200ms to respond, but here for simplicity I will give example with time command.
Here is rough example:
echo ">" && time &
echo ">" && time &
echo ">" && time &

wait

This produces >>> time time time
I am looking for a way to make it produce >time>time>time
I had some success trying to call other bash scripts with trailing echo command instead of making actual commands and that works most of the time but inevitably things get mixed up because of timing.
I will post updates as I work on it, thank you for the help

A: Try this:
echo ">$(time)" &
echo ">$(time) &
echo ">$(time)" &

wait

That tells echo that it needs the output of the time command you have before it can do its thing.

Bénédictine é um licor francês cuja fabricação apareceu na ordem religiosa católica de clausura monástica, os Beneditinos, ordem fundada no ano de 529 na abadia de Monte Cassino, na Itália, por São Bento de Núrsia (480-543),

Origens
Começou a ser produzido em 1510, na abadia de Fécamp, na França. Os monges dessa abadia, durante anos, guardaram sigilosamente a sua receita. O local foi saqueado durante a Revolução Francesa, e a fórmula do Bénédictine ficou desaparecida até 1863, quando caiu nas mãos de um comerciante local.

Dias atuais
Atualmente, este licor é fabricado por uma firma particular situada na zona da Normandia, e que nada tendo em comum com o licor fabricado pelos monges. Sabe-se que o atual fabricante continua a guardar o segredo sobre o Benedictine e que, em homenagem aos monges que inventaram a receita, construiu a fábrica Bénédictine, em réplica à abadia de Fécamp.

Devido ao sigilo que envolve este licor, apenas se sabe que na sua fabricação entram várias dezenas de plantas, sendo usado o processo de maceração e destilação. Na verdade não é muito secreta sua fórmula, o que ocorre é a dosagem do conhaque, que entra na sua base de fabricação, têm de ser exata para o tipo de licor Bénédictine, que é considerado um ótimo digestivo. A bebida tem maior teor de conhaque e o licor é mais seco, portanto menos doce.

As iniciais D. O. M., que aparecem no rótulo, correspondem a "Deo Optimo Maximo", ou seja, "Para Deus, o maior e o melhor".

Bob Cross makes his picks for the opening day of Cheltenham.
It is here at last! After a wait of nearly a year, the Cheltenham Festival returns today.
The weather has been such over the last week or so that all eyes will be on the clerk of the course and the likelihood is that the word "heavy" will be used for the first time this century to describe the going at the festival on the main courses.
Heavy ground is not what we have come to expect at this time of year and when the going is tough for the horses it can be tougher for us punters. I would advise a wee bit of restraint when placing any wagers.
Day One starts us off with The Supreme Novices Hurdle (1.30).
The short priced favourite will be the Willie Mullins trained Getabird and I am opposing the first jolly of the meeting.
I am going to have two tentative each way bets in this contest.
First Flow may not have competed against the best horses yet but he is three from three over hurdles and has form in heavy going.
At a huge price, Western Ryder, has already won at Cheltenham this season.
The Arkle Chase (2.10) has only five entries but, with four of the five in with a real chance, this could be the best race of the day.
I am hoping Saint Calvados will be allowed to lead and if this is the case I think he will take all the beating.
Brain Power (e/w) has had a wind op since his last run and if Saint Calvados and Footpad fight hard to lead the field the race may be set up for him to catch them on the run in.
The Ultimo Handicap Chase (2.50) gives us the opportunity for another couple of each way selections in what is a wide open contest.
record here at Cheltenham, I am happy to back him each way here at around 20/1.
Singlefarmpayment was unlucky – finishing second – in this race last year and is the only entry to have won at Cheltenham on heavy ground.
The feature race of the day is the Champion Hurdle (3.30) and I cannot oppose the hot favourite Buveur D'Air. He is going for seven hurdle races in a row and, frankly, he looks unbeatable.
Elgin has been improving this year and represents each way value for money at around 20/1.
The Mares Hurdle (4.10) sees Apple's Jade return to defend her crown and it will be a real surprise if she does not make it two in a row.
Jer's Girl was going well last year in this contest when she fell three out. A similar effort, with more sure footing, should see her finishing in the first three.
The penultimate race of the day is the National Hunt Chase which is for amateur riders (4.50).
Ms Parfois has done very little wrong this season and if she hailed from a more fashionable yard I am sure she would be a much shorter price for this event. Rathvinden has had plenty of experience and, if his jumping holds up, represents good each way value.
If we are looking to get out of jail, the last race (5.30) provides us with a rather difficult task.
Barney Dwan impressed me at Musselburgh last month.
Cheltenham is certainly a different prospect but he has been laid out for this race.
Kayf Adventure is 50/1 with Paddy Power and this appears to be far too big a price for a horse that is improving and will have the benefit of champion jockey, Richard Johnson, in the saddle. Assuming I have any funds left I will be having an each way bet on both these equine athletes.
Then it is off to bed to dream about day two – after I check with several of my contacts about the fitness or otherwise of Altior!

Japan's anachronistic economic retaliation

Japan's anachronistic economic retaliation. July. 02, 2019 07:28. .
The Japanese government announced on Monday that it will strengthen regulations on exports to Korea of three core materials for TV and smartphones starting from Thursday. It also said that Japan's Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act will no longer include Korea among "white nations" with some special treatments. Tokyo cited that the measure was taken as any desirable solution was not found regarding the compensation for forced laborers before the G20 Summit was held in Osaka; and as mutual trust was severely damaged between the two nations.
The three core materials whose exports to be regulated by the Japan government are polyimide, resists and high-purity hydrogen fluoride. As Japan occupies 70 to 90 percent of the three materials in the global market, it will be inevitable for Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix to be hard hit for some time. It comes as a great shock to the Korean semiconductor industry that Japan has purposely blown a critical blow to Korea. An unexpected hurdle put up by Japan has suddenly got in the way of Korean exporters while exports reduced by 13.5 percent in June compared to last year's figure, making Korean export grow negatively for the last seven consecutive months. Considering that semiconductors account for more than 20 percent of Korean exports, it only represents great damage to the Korean industry overall. Korean exporters find their hands tied as they are highly dependent on Japanese materials.
The thing is that such regulations on the export to South Korea will not only affect Korea but also serve as a shot in Japan's foot. It may lead Japan to lose one of its stable export destinations as Korean companies are to trade less with Japan over the longer term. Japan will not be free of criticism that as the hosting country of last week's G20 Summit it violates the principle of free trade in that it unilaterally takes advantage of trade regulation amid conflict with its trade partner. Some criticize that the Abe administration uses a shameful trick to win the Upper House election scheduled on July 21 as it attempted to bash Korea to increase approval ratings.
It is likely that the Korean government will also come under fire for doing nothing about its worsening relationship with its neighboring country while showing such a poor sense of irresponsibility. The Korean government held a meeting on Monday to find countermeasures, saying that it will strictly respond by filing a lawsuit with the World Trade Organization. However, the Korean government may find it hard to earn trust by merely saying that it will be nimble to respond as Japan has warned it of a stronger export regulation on hydrogen fluoride, a main material for semiconductor fabrication, since the beginning of the year. South Korean Foreign Affairs Minister Kang Kyung-wha said last Tuesday that Korea will take counteractive measures against Japan's retaliation. Seoul and Tokyo should not drive themselves into an endless chicken game but rather have strategic discussion to find a solution to restore their relationship.
