PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept. 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, General Catalyst Partners (GC) is introducing the GC Stripe Platform Fund, a program in which GC plans to invest $10 million in venture capital for market-changing businesses and applications built on the Stripe Connect platform.
Stripe Connect enables businesses to connect their Stripe account (and their Stripe data) with other services: with a single click, a company can start selling on Twitter, integrate with their web analytics, or access their Stripe data on a mobile device. Applications built on Stripe Connect extend Stripe's capabilities, and overall make it better and more useful for users.
"We have watched this ecosystem develop with great interest," said Hemant Taneja, Managing Partner at General Catalyst. "It's not often that we see the formation of an important new application platform—there are only a few in each decade. Facebook, Google, Apple, Salesforce, Microsoft… when it works, it's a massively potent force. In Stripe Connect, we see the potential to build entirely new classes of services that enable businesses to better leverage their payments capabilities and data."
The GC Stripe Platform Fund is geared primarily toward rapidly accelerating, seed-stage startups who need a capital infusion to sustain their momentum. Most investments will range from $250K-$500K.
The first investment is a $500K investment in Baremetrics. An excellent example of the value being created on the platform, Baremetrics provides extensive analytics on Stripe data for software-as-a-service businesses, including dozens of real-time metrics on monthly recurring revenue, lifetime value, run rate and churn. These metrics are essential for SaaS businesses, and in one click Baremetrics gives users a constant window into their performance. Since it's built on the Stripe API, users needn't worry about any extra integration -- it just works.
"Stripe's intention is to increase the GDP of the Internet by making it easy for new types of commerce to move online. As online business models diversify, new tools will be needed to run them," said Patrick Collison, co-founder and CEO of Stripe. "We're committed to growing the ecosystem and supporting companies like Baremetrics and others, who extend Stripe in new directions."
The Stripe Platform Fund is focused on two categories: startups that are building valuable extensions to the Stripe platform and add value to other Stripe users; and marketplaces or platforms that are built atop Stripe Connect, such as BigCommerce or Lyft.
Founders building an innovative business model, marketplace or app on Stripe Connect may simply send an email with a 1-page summary of the company's vision and focus, a description of the team (including links to LinkedIn profiles and/or GitHub repositories), and a link to the app or product URL to GC_StripeEcosystem@generalcatalyst.com. The fund has global reach, and is accepting applications from startups in both mature and emerging markets who can accept investments from US based investors.
For relevant companies that need capital to sustain strong momentum GC commits to making an investment decision within one week of an initial meeting.
General Catalyst Partners is a venture capital firm that makes early-stage and growth equity investments. The firm backs exceptional entrepreneurs who are building innovative technology companies that transform industries, including Oscar, KAYAK, Demandware, Stripe, Airbnb, The Honest Company, Warby Parker, Datalogix, BigCommerce, Snapchat, HubSpot, and Datto. The General Catalyst partnership leverages its broad experience to help founders build market-leading businesses. General Catalyst has offices in Cambridge, MA, Palo Alto, CA and New York City. For more information, visit: www.generalcatalyst.com or www.twitter.com/gcvp.
Stripe processes billions of dollars a year for some of the most successful companies and marketplaces on the Internet, making it easier than ever to accept payments and manage an online business. Supporting startups to Fortune 500 companies, Stripe powers the sharing economy, top mobile applications, and global software services.

On Monday 28th March on the Glanfa Stage at the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff the Welsh branch of the Royal National Institute for the Blind will launch the first ever Welsh language talking book. I'm happy to say that the title chosen is Ysgol Jacob, a translation of my novel Jacob's Ladder.
I'm always pleased when a book of mine is translated into another language but I was delighted when Jacob's Ladder was rendered into Welsh because like the Welsh language movement itself, this is a book that concerns itself with identity and that's one of the main themes of my work.
As someone who grew up in London with Irish parents determined to maintain their ethnic identity and to pass on their pride in their heritage to their children I feel real solidarity with those people who are determined to see the Welsh language given the place in contemporary culture that it deserves.
Literature is something to which everyone should have access. That's why the cuts to library services that are taking place in parts of Britain at the moment make me feel so depressed. However, I'm cheered up greatly, and proud too, that through my book I am able to play a part in RNIB Cymru's initiative to increase access to those Welsh speakers who are visually impaired.
I will pass on the information to the people in Derby Welsh Learners' Circle. They read a book on Tuesday mornings. I shall make a recommendation and tell them all about you.
This is really delightful news, Brian.
We're picking up the stray Farsi word around here since #2 Son is marrying an Iranian girl (next month!). Now I'm going to imagine two things. One, my novel gets published. Two, that it is translated into a spoken word Farsi novel.
Thanks Paul. Congratulations on the impending event and fingers crossed for the other two!


We don't just provide motorcycle insurance – we also provide specialist moped and scooter insurance cover. Whatever make or model you may ride, we make sure that you have the best cover for your requirements and that you are fully protected by an insurer you can trust.
We work closely with our trusted panel of insurers to compare moped insurance policies and obtain the best quotes possible at the most competitive prices. We can offer comprehensive, third party fire and theft or third party only moped insurance cover as well as a number of additional benefits.
Getting a moped insurance quote is easy with Bennetts – we'll do the legwork to find you the best premium for your requirements from our panel.
Simply complete our online form for an instant quote, or call our dedicated UK-based call centre on 0330 018 7990, who are on hand 24 hours a day, seven days a week to find our best deal for you.
Scooters and mopeds tend to have a smaller engine than the average motorcycle and therefore out of all bike types, they are the cheapest to insure. In addition, there are few things you can do to cut the cost of your insurance premium even further.
One way to attract discount on moped and scooter insurance is to complete an advanced riding course such as those offered by the Institute of Advanced Motorists. An extra training will make you a better rider, and those with a clean riding record for two years or more pay even less.
Up your security on the road and at night to get a lower premium. By keeping your scooter in a garage overnight and fitting approved security systems and locks you could reduce your scooter insurance cost.
Save even more by keeping hold of your moped; by owning and riding your moped or scooter for over a year, it shows consistent riding experience on the same vehicle and could reduce your insurance premium.
Learn about other ways to cut the cost of insurance and get the best rate possible on your scooter insurance.
As a young rider, the biggest benefit of a moped is the freedom it offers you. They may be limited to 28mph, but even at this slow pace you can get to places without relying on lifts from your parents. Also, mopeds are remarkably frugal, easily doing 80mpg while remaining incredibly reliable – and you can even get replicas of your racing hero's steed.
To more experienced riders, a moped is a cheap, economical means of zipping through traffic on short journeys and as well as being cheap to insure they cost just £17 a year in road tax. Environmentally speaking, a lot of the new electric vehicles are classed as mopeds due to their small engine size and even the petrol versions are good news for Mother Nature as they don't sit in queues pumping out fumes like cars.
Who Can Ride a Moped?
All that's required to get on a moped up to 50cc is the successful completion of a one-day training course called CBT - Compulsory Basic Training. Car licence holders are also entitled to ride a moped if their full licence was issued before 1 February 2001.
It is now a legal requirement for registered moped keepers to insure their vehicles at all times. The government has tightened up the rules by introducing a new set of regulations known as Continuous Insurance Enforcement Scheme, which makes it an offence to keep your vehicle in a garage without insurance, unless it has been declared off the road to the DVLA.
Hence it's crucial to get your moped insured before you hit the road. Whether you ride Peugeot or Piaggio, make sure you are fully covered all year round.
As the majority of scooters are 'twist and go' they don't have a clutch, making them easier to ride through congested cities. Commuters love the fact that most scooters have large under seat storage compartments, meaning that you don't have to lug a helmet around the shops.
With congestion charges, the cost of train tickets, limited parking and high petrol prices, scooters are becoming increasingly popular for inner-city commuters. The environmental benefits don't only include the generally excellent fuel economy of scooters, but also the fact that they reduce congestion.
According to UK registration criteria, a scooter is a style of motorcycle in much the same way as a sports bike or a naked bike is a style. As long as it is above 49cc and is a motorcycle with a step through frame (allows you to sit with your feet together on a footboard as the frame runs along the floor) then it is classed as a scooter.
The mounting of the engine, which is usually combined with the rear swingarm or located below the rider's seat, allows this unique kind of frame design.
A 50cc scooter or 125cc scooter is the perfect commuter, with plenty of nippy power for crossing town in the traffic, and a lightweight maneuverability that will leave most other vehicles jealously watching you as you weave out of sight. What's more, while motorbikes are all too often about performance first, with practicality coming as an afterthought, scooters are one of the most practical ways to get around.

Netflix Pix: Picking the best new streaming releases
by DAILY ARTS WRITERS October 9, 2013 April 20, 2021
1. "Fargo": Originally released in 1996, this Coen Brothers police drama has since become recognized as one of the duo's most relevant works. Not only does it bend the traditional rules of a typical police procedural by humoring and humanizing its subjects, it does so through the eyes of perhaps the brothers' most unique character to date: the very cunning, extremely willful and extraordinarily pregnant Police Chief Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand). Even if you're not that into the Coen Brothers, cops-and-robbers or movies in general, check out "Fargo" for that iconic central performance by McDormand. It'll stick with you.
2. "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind": George Clooney is a lot of things. Handsome, charming, dat smile, basically a physical incarnation of Danny Ocean from the "Ocean's" trilogy. Except, of course, he's not a thief. He's a filmmaker. And in every sense of the word, he's a master of his craft. So do yourself a favor and check out his directorial debut, "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind," boasting a powerhouse leading performance by Sam Rockwell as Chuck Barris, the successful game show host who claimed to live a double life as a CIA assassin. It's a long movie that requires close attention, but as is habitual to anything produced by GCloons, the effort is more than worth it. Rather than your cut-and-dry biopic, what we get is a film that blurs the line between sanity and fiction. It's a trippy ride, but you'll be glad you took it.
3. "King of New York": This is not a very good film. It's boring, clichéd and probably the most run-down regurgitation of the crime boss genre until someone does a take-by-take remake of "The Godfather," but I'm not ashamed to say I've watched it three times. Why? Christopher Walken. Walken, without hyperbolizing, is this movie. His lines are never really special, but seem quotable in real time only because they're being said with perfect Walken inflection. If you, like any sane person, have an excuse to brush up on your Walken impression, this is the movie to watch. Also, Gus from "Breaking Bad" is in it. SOOO …
4. "Ghostbusters": When your folks back home say they just don't make 'em funny like they used to, they will almost always refer to the SNL glory days of the '70s and '80s. They're talking about what made funny funny for the next three decades. Very few of the classics that talented group of people produced could make a roller rink as groovy as "Ghostbusters" and its overplayed song could. "Ghostbusters" 's brand of comedy knows no generation gap — funny is funny — thanks to the deadpan talent of its cast, which includes Billy Murray and Dan Aykroyd and Sci-Fi Queen Sigourney Weaver.
5. "As Good as It Gets": "As Good as It Gets" is about a man pitted against his OCD and dyspeptic prejudices — all of which he has to overcome to win the love of a waitress. Melvin Udall is, of course, played by Jack Nicholson in an Oscar-winning performance and Carolyn Connelly by Helen Hunt, who also grabbed an Oscar. Ultimately, it's the film's romantic gestures that lend it a sweet quality, and it's the pragmatic hardships both characters must face each day therein portrayed that make it a statement about courage and redemption and love's relation to both. Nothing says it better than the purity of Melvin's profession of love, "You make me wanna be a better man."
The last name has a legacy. That's no issue for Luke Hughes.

IM Mehmed Pasalic and FM Robby Adamson face off in round 1 of the 24th North American Masters.
The 24th North American Masters kicked off Friday night beginning the new year of chess with a new tournament format, two new sponsors, and renewed efforts by the norm seekers to achieve their goals.
The tournament was sponsored by Vince W. Berry Real Estate Services, a commercial real estate service here in Chicago. Vince is a long time chess lover and we are ever thankful for his support of this event. Also sponsoring this and all events in 2010 with technology are DGT Projects of Holland and DGT North America. They have provided us with DGT e-boards and software. Right now, all I've had time to do is record the games in the DGT e-board memory and pull them out in PGN format (real cool!). Next is to use TOMA to broadcast games. Finally the Holiday Inn North Shore Hotel has renewed their sponsorship to us for the tournament venue. The hotel has been sponsoring many chess events such as the North American Masters, the Chicago Blaze US Chess League team, and the first match we organized between IM Krush and IM Mkrtchian.
We see the first appearance in norm tournament play of newly minted IM Florin Felecan, who scored his three IM norms all in this tournament series and the top seed of the tournament with a 2430 FIDE rating. Joining Florin are fellow IM's Mehmed Pasalic and Arjun Vishnuvardhan. If you remember Mehmed was the first player to achieve all 3 IM norms in this tournament series. Can you name the only other player that has done this feat?
Our norm hunters come in the form of two local players and one import from sunny Arizona. Our local players are Jon L. Burgess (who plays for England) who has played twice before with good results, Gauri Shankar (who plays for India) and scored his first IM norm last year in the same event that Florin scored his final IM norm), and the always interesting Robby Adamson. A score of 7/10 is required for an IM norm.
Robby was the first one in on Friday while I was setting up the tournament room. His comment was "I can't believe there's so much snow on the ground." Welcome to Chicago in January! Robby and I had a nice long talk about chess and other chess related topics. He's always someone interesting to talk to. For those of you that don't know, he's the coach of a winning scholastic team (can you name which one?), a member of the Arizona Scorpions US Chess League team, and also an estate attorney.
The first round is always crucial to get your juices flowing. Robby and Gauri had the unfortunate of starting off with black against the top two seeds in Mehmed and Florin respectively. Robby was able to pull out a grinding win with both himself and Mehmed in mutual time trouble. Gauri was able to secure the draw against Florin with sharp play on both sides. Unfortunately Jon wasn't able to get on the scoreboard (yet) wth the white pieces against Arjun but there are still eight rounds left! In round two, Pasalic rebounded with a win over Burgess, while Adamson won again and now has a perfect 2-0.
The round schedule is 10:30am and 3:30pm CST on Saturday and Sunday. We will update the chess community with scores, standings, and stories throughout the weekend on our website (www.nachess.org). We will be having a dinner with the sponsor, players, and some guests on Saturday night with a special fish dish and we'll update you with an article and pictures.

Fort Totten includes over 100 buildings and smaller secondary structures built between the 1830s and the 1960s. The fort, originally called the Fort at Willets Point, was established in 1857 as a major component in the defense system of New York Harbor. The major period of improvement and expansion for the fort occurred in 1885-1914, resulting in much of the historic character that exists today.
The fort remained in military hands until the 1970s when most of the land was turned over to the City of New York and is now operated under the jurisdiction of the Fire Department, the Parks Department, and the Historic House Trust.


One of the biggest attractions for me of the Thermomix was having a kitchen utensil that was really multi-functional. I've never quite been able to justify spending over a thousand pounds though. So, I was (and still am) really excited to be given the opportunity to review and use the Thermocook Optimum. I'm still at that 'experimental' stage where most of the things I do need to be re-tested and fine tuned. I've made soups, I've used the Thermocook as a slow cooker and I've made a LOT of mashed potato. But, the most innovative thing I've done, using the Thermocook as a sous-vide is an idea I've stolen from the Thermomix forums. It is something that really does work exceptionally well and, I think, needs to be celebrated and shared.
So far I've tried venison shoulder steaks and duck breast. They are both the sort of thing I would normally pan fry, but which I struggle to get cooked through yet rare. They also both have a tendency to be a little tough. Of the two, the duck breast was a resounding success while the venison was good but not perfect. I allowed two and a half hours for each at 60c, but I suspect the venison would have benefited from a longer cooking period at a slightly lower temperature. If you are making this yourself in a Thermocook I suggest using the kneading shaft – you don't want to accidentally pierce your sealed sous-vide bag. The size of the jug on the Thermocook means that you will probably not be able to sous-vide more than 4 medium size duck breasts at a time.
There is a wealth of information about cooking temperatures and times on the internet. I used this guide and adapted my recipe from this one. Nerves got the better of me, so I cooked the meat for a little longer and at a slightly higher temperature. One of the best things about sous-vide cooking though is that you can keep food at the 'perfect' level for a couple of hours. So a meat like duck breast which might get tough if you overcook it in the oven or a frying pan will be beautifully tender and pink even if the phone rings and you end up talking for an hour or so when you should be serving dinner.
The recipe is ultra simple – and I shall be making it again. The duck breast is meltingly tender – and I think it would be great served cold, sliced into a salad.
Now I'm not an egg eater – but I'd love to know how the Thermocook fares at making a slow-cooked egg. Apparently, you just pop the eggs straight into the water bath/Thermocook jug and cook. Eat your heart out Heston!
The Thermocook is now available for just under £500. At less than half the price of the Thermomix but with all the functionality, that's something of a bargain.
Disclosure: Froothie UK sent me the Optimum ThermoCook to use and review at home. I have not been paid for this post and was not required to give the ThermoCook a positive write up. All opinions are my own. There are affiliate links in this post so that if you buy the Optimum Thermocook I will get a small commission.
I'm so impressed by this machine and really a rather reasonable price considering what it can do. I cannot imagine using it as a Sous-Vide without feeling like a Masterchef competitor but I can most definitely imagine eating that succulent duck! Happy New Year Fiona!
Wow, this sounds amazing. I'm terrible for leaving food cooking for too long while I'm on the phone, or often blogging!
LOL me too, this machine works wonders though – it's all timed so it is much easier!
This is immensely fascinating to me! I have recently been "transitioning" back to being an omnivore after being vegetarian (mostly vegan) for almost 20 years. If I'm going to eat meat, I want to do it justice, but I've been super reticent to experiment due to fear of failure. Sous vide seems to have potential to avoid any catestrophic mishaps? I also have been given a Thermocook to review and plan to give this technique a try very soon. Haven't had duck ever in my life but I DO like venison (how weird it feels to type that)!
In theory Sous-Vide should prevent you overcooking meat or drying it out. It's a forgiving technique.

Benjamin Booker's eponymous 2014 debut was a modest punk-blues revelation that didn't always translate as well onstage, where the Southern upstart could veer into shambolic simplicity. But he's slowed down and smoothed out those edges on his new album Witness, adopting more classic soul icing that doesn't require him to bang a guitar. We'll see how it plays out at the Sinclair on Friday. Another option on the same night: Montreal indie-rockers Wolf Parade, whose solid Boston Calling set was largely overlooked at that festival, howl at Royale.
Saturday's main event would be Queens of the Stone Age (pictured), storming the big stage of Agganis Arena. QOTSA may be injecting a touch more synthesizer to go with the brash experimentation of its Mark Ronson-produced new Villains, but you can also count on Josh Homme's crew to rock in down and dirty fashion. At the other end of the spectrum, you can get hushed with singer Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions at Royale; don't expect to hear any nuggets from her former group Mazzy Star, just a similar vein of lush, spectral, low-light hypnosis.
Saturday also brings modern Philly-based R&B stylist Son Little – who like Benjamin Booker, has collaborated with Mavis Staples — to the Sinclair. And the married pair of local singer/songwriters Kris Delmhorst and Jeffrey Foucault tag team at Once Ballroom to showcase her haunting new The Wild as well as his material for an upcoming album. Jump here to my interview with Delmhorst.
Different strings engage when singer/fiddler Laura Cortese and the Dance Cards, which includes cellist Valerie Thompson (Goli, Fluttr Effect), take over A.R.T.'s intimate Oberon space in Harvard Square. And also on Sunday, in conjunction with luthier Steve Klein's exhibit "Breaking the Mold: 50 Years of Innovation in the Art of Guitar Building" and a day-long symposium at Concord's Umbrella Community Arts Center, impressionistic master Bill Frisell will perform a nighttime concert with his longtime drummer Kenny Wollesen.

Recap from lastnights Supernatural: Sam Meets an Old Friend in Hell
John Kubicek
Senior Writer, BuddyTV
This week on Supernatural, Sam goes to Hell to rescue an innocent soul, the second trial in the triad of quests to close the Gates of Hell forever.
Oh, who am I kidding, there's only one thing you really need to know about this episode. Bobby Singer is back!
There's no other emotion besides pure joy at seeing Jim Beaver back on Supernatural. And it's really him, not some evil mind game perpetrated by Crowley like I thought it might be halfway through the episode. I apologize in advance for my excessive use of exclamation points in this recap.
The Crazy Prophet
Teen Prophet Kevin Tran is going insane, hearing Crowley's voice and imagining his limbs are falling off. It really doesn't pay to be friends with the Winchesters. He calls up Sam and Dean and lets them know that he translated the second trial and it involves getting an innocent soul out of Hell and placing it in Heaven. Oh, is that all?
How to Go to Hell
To complete the second trial, Sam and Dean interrogate a Crossroads Demon and learn that rogue reapers can help move souls between Heaven and Hell. They reach out to a Reaper Coyote who just happens to be the same reaper who took Bobby's soul to Hell (burning his bones doesn't help when Crowley, the King of Hell, doesn't like). Sam's new mission, which he decides to do solo, is to find and save Bobby.
Sam takes a trip with the reaper, but he only takes him to Purgatory, which has a secret backdoor entrance to Hell. After getting a first-hand glimpse of the horror his brother survived for a year, Sam goes down the rabbit hole into Hell.
BOBBY!!!
Hell is like a medieval torture chamber with souls begging to be saved. Sam walks through and finds a room with a guy wearing a hat. He walks in and asks, "Bobby?" And then...
BOBBY TURNS AROUND!
Yes, Jim Beaver came back to Supernatural, which is the most amazing, shocking, awesome thing ever. Kudos to the show for not putting his name in the opening credits or giving any hints that he was returning. I'll admit I hoped this would happen, but I didn't think it actually would. It helps that I adore him even more since he just finished up an AMAZING run on FX's Justified that, in my opinion, should earn him an Emmy nomination for Guest Actor.
In true Bobby fashion, the first thing he does is punch Sam in the face. It seems his version of Hell is demons posing as Sam and Dean to torture him. But with some very personal details (including an excellent callback to his love of Tori Spelling), Sam proves he's real and takes Bobby on the run. Bobby hasn't lost a step as a Hunter and before long they reach Purgatory.
Bobby gets the debrief on the trials and offers to help, but Sam says they burned his bones and, in order to complete this trial, Sam needs to take Bobby's soul to Heaven. Bobby reluctantly agrees, but he promises chaos if he has to sit in a rocking chair for eternity.
Back on Earth
Crowley tracks down the reaper who helped Sam and kills him. Elsewhere Kevin decides to hide the Demon Tablet because he's so crazy and Dean gets a visit from Naomi, who says she wants to work with him to close the Gates of Hell. She even tells him about Sam having to go to Purgatory. Wait, is Naomi ACTUALLY good?
When Dean learns the reaper is dead, he calls up Benny to ask for the biggest favor ever. He wants to kill Benny so Benny can return to Purgatory to help Sam escape. Benny agrees, seemingly because he just doesn't fit in and wants to go back to Purgatory. So Dean kills his friend. It's surprisingly touching.
Saving Bobby's Soul
Benny shows up in Purgatory to help Sam and Bobby escape. Bobby is a little confused that Dean is friends with a vampire, but there's no time for that. Benny leads them to the portal, but stays behind because it's where he belongs.
Sam cuts himself open to keep Bobby's soul safe in his body for the journey. They zap back to Maine where Dean is waiting for him, and Dean has a pretty big smile when he learns Bobby was saved. I feel kind of bad that Dean didn't get to see Bobby again, but as Bobby's final words to Sam suggested, he'll probably be back since nothing is permanent. I will now amend my current theory of "Sam will turn into God after completing the trials" to "Bobby will come back as God after Sam completes the trials." I just really want to hear God say "Balls."
Sam releases Bobby's soul, but Crowley shows up to stop it. Thankfully Naomi turns up (I NEVER thought I'd write that) and does her little angel mojo to send Crowley away, thus allowing Bobby's soul to go to Heaven. The second trial is complete.
Goodbye, Kevin
In the epilogue, Crowley finds Kevin, a result of torturing and killing his mom (off-screen, so it's hard to tell if it's true). Whatever the case, when Sam and Dean show up, Kevin and his notes are gone. That's gonna make the third trial a lot harder.
Next time on Supernatural: The show is on its final hiatus of season 8 until April 24, but when it comes back, Felicia Day returns as Charlie and she and Dean are trapped in a video game together. Good, I need some comedy.

Q: How to convert timestamp locally according to our location startTime := time.Unix(logUserDetail[k].LogTime, 0)
startTimeOfLog := startTime.String()[11:16]

I have time in timestamp format and it is in UTC time zone. I want to convert this time to the local timezone according to our location.
logUserDetail[k].LogTime is in timestamp(1499335473)

A: You can use (t Time) In() (Golang documentation) to convert startTime to use your local timezone.

A: Please check the Local function for time structs: https://golang.org/pkg/time/#Time.Local
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
)
func main() {
    startTime := time.Now()
    fmt.Println(startTime.Local())
}

Q: In react-native, how to add active class to selected menu option I have the following menu options in the following structure:
const menuOptions = [
  {
    route: 'RegisterStack',
    label: 'Register',
    size: 25,
  },
  {
    route: 'LoginStack',
    label: 'Login',
    size: 25,
  },
  {
    route: 'DashboardStack',
    label: 'Dashboard',
    size: 25,
  }
];

and here's my remaining code with component state and the rest of the code:
const [activeLink, setActiveLink] = useState('');
const navigation = useNavigation();

<View>
    {menuOptions.map((stack, index) => {
        return (
        <TouchableOpacity
            key={index}
            style={[
            styles.menuStyle,
            index === activeLink
                ? {backgroundColor: 'red'}
                : {backgroundColor: 'white'}
            ]}
            onPress={() => navigation.navigate(stack.route)}>
            <Icon
            name={stack.icon}
            color={stack.color}
            size={stack.size}
            style={{
            marginRight: mainMenuOpen ? '10%' : 0,
            }}
            onPress={() => setActiveLink(index)}
            />
            <Text style={{width: '70%', fontWeight: '500'}}>
            {stack.label}
            </Text>
        </TouchableOpacity>
        );
    })}
</View>

With the current code, I can see active class taking place but it seems to broke the navigation and won't route to a different page when click on it. The navigation starts working fine when I remove the following onPress method from Icon onPress={() => setActiveLink(index)}.
Can someone please help me how can I make this work?

A: The problem here is that you are nesting two pressables. The touch event will be caught by onPress of the Icon component. This is also the reason why the navigation starts working when you remove the inner onPress function.
It seems to me that you either want setActiveLink to be triggered if we press on the Icon only or you want setActiveLink to be triggered and then navigate to the desired screen at the same time.
In the second case you just need one onPress function for the outer component.
<TouchableOpacity
            key={index}
            style={[
            styles.menuStyle,
            index === activeLink
                ? {backgroundColor: 'red'}
                : {backgroundColor: 'white'}
            ]}
            onPress={() => {
               setActiveLink(index)
               navigation.navigate(stack.route)
            }}>
            <Icon
            name={stack.icon}
            color={stack.color}
            size={stack.size}
            style={{
            marginRight: mainMenuOpen ? '10%' : 0,
            }}
            />
            <Text style={{width: '70%', fontWeight: '500'}}>
            {stack.label}
            </Text>
 </TouchableOpacity>

If you want two separate things to happen, e.g. setActiveLink on Icon press only and navigate on stack.label press only, then you need to reorganize your component. You could create a parent view which layouts the components in a row without nesting two pressables.
// you still need to apply the desired styles...
<View>
    <Pressable onPress={() => setActiveLink(index)}>
      <Icon
            name={stack.icon}
            color={stack.color}
            size={stack.size}
      />
    </Pressable>
    <TouchableOpacity
            key={index}
            onPress={() => {
               navigation.navigate(stack.route)
            }}>
            <Text style={{width: '70%', fontWeight: '500'}}>
                {stack.label}
            </Text>
    </TouchableOpacity>

I always say I'm not a journaler, but I just typed an update on the computer in a journal file that I've kept faithfully since 2009. And, if you dug around in the recesses of my basement, you'd come across boxes of notebooks I've been writing in since 1977. So, am I a journaler? I guess I am.
Where's the breakdown? I think the problem is that when I think of journaling, I imagine a diary, something people cherish and update daily. I tried that as a child, but I had little success. My life was just not that interesting. I tried again when my life finally did get that interesting, those diaries had to be burned!
We need a new idea of journaling that includes a broader definition. Here's mine: Journaling as a spiritual practice is any way of keeping an account of the work of God in your life. If that is true, I am a journaler.
Eight years ago, I took a spiritual direction class that included the book, "Journaling As a Spiritual Practice: Encountering God Through Attentive Writing," by my professor, Helen Cepero. As part of that class we did the journaling exercises set out in the book and after the class, I continued. The difference was I only wrote in this journal once a month when I was on my silent retreats. I have continued this practice for eight years now, but never really thought of it as journaling because it wasn't a daily practice. Still, over time it has become a record of the work of God in my life through the tremendous experience of the last eight years. It counts!
What about the boxes in my basement? When I was eighteen I arrived at college as a newly minted Christian. I didn't know anything about being a believer so I found the first mature looking Christian I could and asked how to go about growing my faith. She suggested that I find a spiral notebook and divide it in half. In the first section, I was to read the Bible and when something stood out to me, write it down. In the second section I was to draw a vertical line down each page and use one side for writing out my prayers and the other side for writing the answers to those prayers. This was very doable and I've been doing it for forty years. I don't often go back and read the old ones, but the idea of having boxes full of forty years of answered prayer is very encouraging. It counts!
So, how do you make journaling work for you? I think a journal can be as different as the person writing it, or drawing in it, or painting in it, or placing photographs in it. I've seen some people who cherish their journals and go back often to re-read them. They are modern day examples of memorial stones that people of ancient times set up to mark a spiritually significant event. Some find writing too cumbersome and prefer to draw or paint. I have a friend who does a photography blog, which is very much a way to journal. It counts!
What's stopping you? For the next two weeks, try a journal of your own design. Find a way to make it work for you. The point is to record the work of God in your life. Maybe it will be a purely mental journal, or a list of bullet points, or some kind of fitness tracker where you note significant aspects of your workouts that have filled your soul tank. Think outside the box – or in this case the notebook.
*For more on spiritual formation exercises, check out my new book, The Retreat: A Tale of Spiritual Awakening.
I love this! I don't consider myself a journaler either, but when I look back through old blog posts I can remember exactly what I was going through at the time the post was written. I have certain notebooks that have poems or thoughts from the Bible or prayers or songs I wrote and those help me to remember all that God has done over the years. Thank you for sharing and encouraging us to intentionally seek God in this way!
Thank you Sarah! It's freeing, isn't it?


The PZM6D high-performance hemispherical boundary layer microphone is designed for many applications, from miking full orchestras or individual musical instruments to security or teleconferencing, as well as film and video productions. A very small metal housing makes the PZM6D even more inconspicuous than the PZM30D.
Two selectable frequency responses (flat/rising) provide greater flexibility in mic placement and sonic character. The rising position delivers bright sound without boosting high frequencies on the recording console. The flat position provides a smooth, flat, high-frequency response for natural sound reproduction. The PZM6D provides a professional XLR connector on a fixed cable.
Cable: 4.58 m (15 foot) black cable with XLRM connector. Model PZM6D has a 1.83 m (6 foot) cable.
