Any Bible prophecy student worth their salt knows by heart Daniel 9:24-27. It's the foundation verse for the future seven- year peace treaty between Israel and 10 nations–five nations from the western leg of Daniel's image (Rome or Europe) and five from the eastern leg of Daniel's image (Istanbul/Middle East).
This treaty, we believe, is consummated just after the Rapture of the Church and begins the seven-year period of Tribulation when God goes back to dealing with the Jews as His chosen people.
Israel wants five or six years of peace? That's pretty close to seven years of peace!
written over 2500 years ago!!!
> The Jews would be scattered over the world and return to their homeland after about 2000 years.
So keep your eyes on Israel–they're God's focus in the next dispensation and He's getting them ready!
What an exciting time to be alive!!!!!

For the verbal post, you can click here. Am waiting for the video link. The interview went well, although Yaught's battery started dying in the middle of showing how cool a solar-powered boat was in a duckweed pond and claiming that it always had plenty of power all summer long. When I tried to hand-tighten the battery post connections, I got my fingers royally burned. Murphy's Law in action keeps me humble.

This week we were all pretending to be Samuel Pepys in 1666 and wrote a diary recording the events in London from Sunday 2nd September 1666 to 6th September 1666. We had to make sure that we added plenty of detail by using adjectives. Writing with a quill proved challenging but helped fuel our imaginations. Keir described how the 'ashes were leaping about while the spreading, scorching smoke burnt. Tilly ended her diary by commenting 'However one person isn't enough to fight one huge fire, you would need everyone because this fire is still burning!' whilst Emily asked ''Will London ever survive this or will all die?' Using Shelton's code to write our own messages has been great fun! We wonder if you could decipher our secret messages?
During Maths we have continued learning how to tell the time. Some are now reading the time in 5 minute intervals but most of us need continued practise at home. Telling the time is a skill that needs continuous revisiting until it is mastered!
IT lessons have involved programming our own instructions to move characters and allow them to perform various functions in a Fire of London setting.


Sometimes I struggle with the fact that this is an education-focused blog, because our state (and our country) are facing so many issues that seem inextricably intertwined with educational issues, and to focus strictly on education means telling only part of the story. This is particularly true in the case of the upcoming election, where North Carolinians are being asked to restructure our state constitution in some significant ways. There are six amendments on the ballot this election, and according to the News & Observer, many of us aren't even really aware that those amendments exist, much less the very high stakes involved in the changes we're being asked to make.
I understand that Constitutions are living documents — their framers, both on a federal on state level, were human beings subject to the same foibles and failings as any other human beings. So it's a good thing that we can change these documents when it becomes clear that such change is necessary: to right wrongs, to make explicit human rights that had been merely implied; to deal with circumstances unforeseen by the framers.
That said, Constitutions are (or should be) serious documents, and changes to them should be undertaken with exquisite care. When we use amendments to affect the fundamental rights of others, or to provide a short-term political boost to one party over another, we demean not only the document, but ourselves as citizens. And when we seek, as is the case this year, to undertake a radical restructuring of the balance of power on which our entire government rests, then we must do it darned carefully.
Which brings me to my first objection to this set of amendments: the process by which they were placed on the ballot was rushed, opaque, and marked with dishonesty and political skulduggery. The laws putting them on the ballot were introduced mere days before they were voted on; no meaningful hearings were held, and members of the minority party — the party that represents millions of North Carolina voters — were excluded completely from the process. The amendment language itself is, in most cases, both misleading and confusing, and the NCGA held a special session to make sure that the bipartisan board that could have provided clearer captions for each amendment would no longer be allowed to do so. The unmistakable conclusion is that this General Assembly wants North Carolinans to be confused. They want us not to know exactly what we're voting for. And that is unconscionable.
Tune in tomorrow, when we'll be talking about separation of powers and how two of the amendments would alter that separation significantly. But if you can't wait until then and want more info now, please check out www.nixallsix.com. There's a bunch of information there, too.

Q: Closed-form for recursive "geometric-like" recursion I asked this question of MSE, but to no avail; alas, here I am.
Let $k>0$, $C\geq 1$, $\alpha \in (0,1]$, and let $(x_n)_{n\geq 1}$, be a sequence of real numbers given by the recursion
$$
x_{n+1} = k |C|^{\alpha} + |x_{n}|^{\alpha} \qquad x_0=0.
$$
Is there a simple "non-recursive" expression for $x_{n}$, for $n>0$?  At the very worst, is there a tight-upper bound for $x_n$ only depending on $C,k,$ and $\alpha$?  I was trying to obtain an upper-bound by the geometric sums $\sum_{i=1}^n{k C}^{\alpha}$ but I'm no longer convinced this is correct.

A: It seems extremely unlikely that a simple "non-recursive" expression for $x_n$ is possible. However, let us obtain an exact upper bound on the $x_n$'s.
Let $a:=\alpha\in(0,1]$ and $b:=k|C|^a\in(0,\infty)$. It is clear that $x_n\ge0$ for all $n$. So,
$$x_0=0,\quad x_1=b,\tag{1}$$
and
$$x_{n+1}=g(x_n)\tag{2}$$
for $n\ge1$, where $g(u):=b+u^a$. To avoid trivialities, assume that $a\ne1$, so that $a\in(0,1)$. Then $h(u):=g(u)-u$ is concave in real $u\ge0$, with $h(0)=b>0$ and $h(\infty-)=-\infty$. So, there is a unique root $u_b\in(0,\infty)$ of the equation $h(u)=0$ and, moreover, $h\ge0$ on the interval $[0,u_b]$, that is,
$$g(u)\ge u\quad \forall u\in[0,u_b],\tag{2.5}$$
whereas
$$b+u_b^a=g(u_b)=u_b.\tag{2.75}$$
In particular, it follows that
$$u_b\ge b.\tag{3}$$
Let us show, by induction on $n\ge0$, that
$$x_n\le u_b\tag{4}$$
for all $n\ge0$. Indeed, by (1) and (3), (4) holds for $n=0,1$. Supposing now that (4) holds for some $n\ge1$, we have
$$x_{n+1}=g(x_n)\le g(u_b)=u_b,$$
in view of (2) and because the function $g$ is increasing. So, (4) holds for all $n\ge0$.
Now (2), (2.5), and (4) imply
$$x_{n+1}=g(x_n)\ge x_n.$$
So, $(x_n)$ is a nondecreasing sequence in $[0,u_b]$. Therefore and in view of (2) and (2.75),
$$x_n\uparrow u_b$$
as $n\uparrow\infty$.
Thus, in view of (4), $u_b$ is the best upper bound on the $x_n$'s.

If $a$ is rational, then the unique root $u_b$ of the equation $u_b=g(u_b)$ will be algebraic in $b$. E.g., if $a=1/2$, then $u_b=(1+2 b+\sqrt{1+4 b})/2$.

Accustomed to escapades and known for his immoderate taste for money, Teodorin Obiang will have left an indelible mark on the socio-political life of Equatorial Guinea. Champion of legal setbacks, the vice president who likes to perform, was acquitted in Switzerland in the case known as "Property ill-gotten".
Protected by his diplomatic immunity, the untouchable Teodorin is behaving as if it were certain that he will one day succeed his father, who has led Equatorial Guinea with an iron fist for 39 years.
Clichés and videos in which he stages his extravagant lifestyle on social networks, discover: yachts, private jets, money cases, motorcycles, luxury vehicles, evenings watered … which punctuate his diplomatic journeys.


The Old Quarter is truly old: people have called Hanoi home continuously for more than 2,000 years, and the Old Quarter is the first area settled by humans. Most of Vietnamese history and culture has unfurled from the location of the Old Quarter. Unlike other cities with "old towns", which by-and-large have become nothing more than souvenir shops and cheap tourist attractions, Hanoi's Old Quarter is still the vibrant centre of life in Hanoi. With people on the street by 5:30 a.m., and restaurants opening by 6:00 a.m., the hustle-and-bustle of the Old Quarter doesn't really start to slow down until 9:30 at night.
The 36 streets that make up the Old Quarter are all named for the type of good or serve they used to sell there. There are streets named for bamboo, silk, silver, medicine, shoes, fans, chickens, and even coffins. This method of naming the street after goods or services goes back to the days when craftsmen would work together in guilds to produce and sell their wares. Even today, walking through the Old Quarter, you might come across an entire block of nothing but paper makers, tinsmiths, or tailors.
The long homes lining the streets of Old Hanoi are called "tunnel homes", because they are not very wide but extend far behind the street front. The section of the home facing the street is generally where the merchants produce and sell their goods; behind the public section is a garden courtyard, and behind that is the residence where the family lives.
Everywhere in Old Hanoi, life spills out from these tunnel houses onto the streets. On the streets, you'll find average Vietnamese people going about their day, tourists looking for some interesting shopping, and street vendors selling their wares. You'll have to walk around stools set onto the sidewalks, where cafe customers are eating their rice or drinking tea, and you'll need to watch out for the motorbikes racing by in the streets.

The graduate program in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology provides a well-integrated curriculum designed to train students to become independent researchers in cellular, biochemical and molecular aspects of immunology, virology, and bacteriology. The Department of Microbiology and Immunology has a very strong commitment to graduate education as evidenced by the number and performance of our PhD graduates and the presence of an NIH-funded training grant in immunology and pathogenesis.
Opportunities are available for laboratory training in the cellular and molecular of bacterial and viral pathogenesis and immunology. This emphasis is also reflected in a pre-doctoral training grant in Immunology and Pathogenesis that was awarded to the Department by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
The postdoctoral position to match a student's career goals is a high priority for every faculty member who serves as a mentor for our students.
This degree program is administered by Wake Forest University Graduate School of Arts & Sciences and located on the Bowman Gray Campus alongside Wake Forest School of Medicine.

The great majority of the coursework is completed within the first academic year, enabling students to begin their dissertation projects in the subsequent summer. The most important element in our graduate program is training students how to effectively design and conduct a research project that leads to publication in the scientific literature.
Publication Production
The quality of a person's track record of publication constitutes the main criterion by which success is measured in a research career. As evidenced by the strong publication record of our students and the quality of their subsequent career growth, our program has been very successful in developing these skills in students.
In large part, our success has been dependent upon the strong mentoring skills of the faculty.
Postdoctoral Guidance
Another important aspect of our graduate training is to help our students secure the best possible position at the next step in their careers, which is usually a postdoctoral fellowship. The choice of postdoctoral position is a critically important element for success, since it is usually from a postdoctoral fellowship position that our graduates seek independent positions in the academic, government or commercial sectors.
Help and advice in choosing the appropriate postdoctoral position to match a student's career goals is a high priority for every faculty member who serves as a mentor for our students.
Molecular and Cellular Bioscience Track
Application to this PhD program is made through the Molecular and Cellular Bioscience Track. This unique track allows students to enter graduate school with the freedom and flexibility to explore several programs before committing to a specific research topic.
A range of mentors can be selected whose research spans basic and translational fields of cutting-edge molecular and cellular biology.

While the kids may be jumping for joy about the carefree summer days, parents everywhere may be dreading the inevitable chorus of "I'm bored" and "What should we dooooooo?" from the kids at the first sign of boredom.
Here are eight activities to keep the kids from bouncing off the walls this summer (and to burn off some extra energy!) while keeping you sane.
With the Summer Olympics set to kick off in Rio de Janeiro in August, we all have Olympic fever. Why not put that excitement into action by hosting the Olympics in your backyard? Have kids choose countries to represent and draw their country's flag. (Plus it's great opportunity for kids to brush up on their geography!) Then decorate the yard for your own version of the Opening Ceremonies.
Set up track field competitions like the 100-yard dash, a Frisbee discus throw, long jump and obstacle courses. Run relay races — everything from three-legged races to potato sack races to an egg-and-spoon race. Play Olympic sports like badminton or soccer. With 28 sports represented at this year's Summer Games, there are many options to choose from.
Set up numbered baskets around your backyard. This will be your "golf course." Kids then take turns to toss the Frisbee towards the "hole," trying to use the fewest throws to land the disc inside. Like golf, the player with the lowest score wins.
One of my favorite summer activities as a kid was washing my parents' car. It was the perfect antidote to the hot East Coast summers — hosing down the car and my siblings was the best part! Little did I know I was doing a chore for my parents! Give the kids buckets of soapy water and set them to work.
While kids love art projects, you probably cringe at the thought of the inevitable mess in the house. (I do!) Why not move the artwork outside and have a messy art day? Then you don't have to worry about getting paint on the furniture or getting glitter and glue embedded in the carpet.
Set up large canvases. Kids can paint with regular brushes or even kitchen utensils, mops, and toilet plungers for fun shapes and textures. If you have swings, set up a human spin art station. Kids lay on their belly on the swing and move back and forth, squirting paint from a ketchup bottle onto a large paper or canvas spread out below the swing. Or lay paper on a slide, dip bouncy balls into paint and let them roll down the slide!
Hiking is a great way for kids to spend time outside and to be active during summer. If your kids are newer to hiking, choose an easy trail with a destination at the end like an old fort or battery or an impressive vista. If your kids need a little extra prodding, turn the hike into a scavenger hunt or bug safari. And plan on lots of snack breaks! Bring snacks like Stonyfield Organic Fruit Snacks or even frozen Stonyfield YoKids Organic squeezers. And don't forget your sunscreen!
Who doesn't love a game of tag? It's a easy and simple way to burn off extra energy and with the ever-changing variations on the game like freeze tag, blob tag, my children's personal favorite — toilet tag, kids won't get bored. Plus, it's a great way for parents to burn off some extra energy too!
One of the best summertime pastimes is running through a sprinkler on a hot day. And it's easy to set up too. Have a slip and slide in the garage? It's the perfect time to pull it out. And it's bound to keep the kids busy and laughing.
What kid (or parent) can turn down a little frozen treat? This ice cream maker is a fun way to get the kids in on the action. Fill it up with your favorite Stonyfield yogurt and kick it around the yard. After about 20 minutes, your frozen treat will be ready to eat!


With a slower pace, this homey 'hood reminds visitors that there's nowhere better to be than here.
Apex Bar boasts 50 beers on tap and amazing bike parking.
With local institutions setting a foundation for this neighborhood's resurgence, Portland's Division and Clinton streets are lively places to gather with friends and make new ones. Saddle up and pedal down to this bike-friendly area, where they live life in the slow lane.
Whether it's for their mimosa brunch or late night plates, local eats and delectable drinks are on the menu at the Night Light Lounge. Their generous happy hours and spacious, all-season patio attract plenty of chatty, friendly Portlanders who are happy to share their favorite local secrets. No doubt one is nearby art-house Clinton Street Theater, another neighborhood haunt that has been showing cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show every Saturday night since 1978, reportedly the longest run in the world.
An entire bar devoted to the mildly psychoactive (and totally legal) root drink from the South Pacific, Bula Kava House can help ease any nerves. Served in coconut cup shells, the drink's mood-altering effect can be be euphoric, but it's also consumed for relaxation. But to truly unwind, treat yourself the Scandinavian way with a relaxing steam at Löyly Sauna, which offers wet and dry saunas and full-body Swedish massages. The sparse, clean setting has a certain Zen to it, even if it's European in its influence, and their packages bundle bodywork, steam treatments, facials and more.
Division Street is known to draw crowds, and when you see one, we recommend going with the flow (because they're probably on to something good). On sunny days — or any day that's not raining, really — the picnic tables outside Apex fill with people watchers and pint lovers. Home to a rotating menu of great beers from around the world and the Pacific Northwest, as well as an excellent pinball arcade, it's lovely place for people-watching. Likewise, the lines at Salt & Straw shouldn't scare you away; they move quickly to accommodate the ever-advancing throngs of ice cream fans who delight in their innovative flavors like honey balsamic strawberry with cracked pepper. There's less traffic at the Southeast Wine Collective, but no shortage of taste. This beautiful urban winery and shared tasting room for a number of urban wineries hosts supper clubs, visiting winemakers and DJ nights.
The area's largest annual event, the Division Street Fair, held each August, pulls together sidewalk sales, artisan booths, live music and a parade together in a family-friendly event that lasts all day. But Landmark Saloon keeps the fun going all season long, with an outside space that includes a fire pit, corn hole courts and a food cart. The authentic country bar also hosts live music most nights, getting everyone inside and out to do some toe-tapping.

Climatologist Andrew Comrie runs the Applied Climate for Environment and Society (ACES) laboratory. The ACES lab focuses on a wide variety of climate research that intersects with other environmental sciences and with social sciences. The primary focus of the lab at present is on climate and health, including links to disease ecology. Other foci include impacts of climate variability and global climate change. The ACES lab is home to graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and undergraduate interns working in these areas. It provides access to university high-performance computers, as well as a range of climate visualization and analysis software tools. ACES is located off campus in the Geronimo Building on University Ave, Room 102.
Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research
SGD paleoclimatologist Connie Woodhouse maintains a dendrochronology laboratory at the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research (add link), soon to be housed in the new Bryant Bannister Tree-Ring Building. Laboratory facilities include measuring machines, microscopes, computers, equipment for field collections, and a wood shop for sample preparation necessary to process and analyze the wood samples. Facilities for tree-ring isotope analysis and image analysis are also available. More information.
The Arizona Remote Sensing Center
The Arizona Remote Sensing Center (ARSC) was established in 1972 and since its inception, ARSC has worked on a wide range of international, national, regional and local projects in which advanced airborne and satellite remote sensing data and other geospatial information technologies are utilized to help address both fundamental and applied issues in natural resource management. ARSC's mission is to employ remote sensing and geospatial technologies to solve natural, agricultural and cultural resource problems in the arid and semi-arid regions of the world. This mission involves both basic and applied research in support of the operational application of geospatial technologies and their extension to stakeholders, the integration of field and remote sensing data and analysis, modeling of coupled human and natural systems, and the deployment of decision support systems.
The primary activities of the center focus on research supported by basic and applied research contracts and grants to develop and apply remote sensing and GIS technologies to problems in agriculture, natural resource management, and the environment. ARSC develops and maintains a number of scientific web sites in response to a large demand for information and data and the need to integrate computer technology into decision support. ARSC is also dedicated to providing graduate and undergraduate students with the opportunity to acquire new knowledge and skills in remote sensing and geospatial analysis. ARSC research projects are staffed by students from a variety of campus Departments including: the Arid Lands Resource Sciences Ph.D. Program, Electrical and Computer Engineering, the School of Geography, Development & Environment, Geosciences, Hydrology and Water Resources, Management and Information Systems, as well as the School of Natural Resources and Environment.

11 Couples That Hurt Smallville (And 9 That Saved It)
Smallville 9x09 - Pandora - Lois and Clark decide to become a couple
As characters with such a storied past � literally � there are plenty of different versions to choose from, as these characters and their relationship have been adapted and readapted again and again. The series, about a young Clark Kent Tom Welling learning about his powers and his heritage while growing up in the titular town, lasted for 10 long years and saw the burgeoning hero grow from small-town oddity to Superman. But while the series gave us a look at the man behind the S, it also offered a unique look at the people orbiting around him, helping him grow into that eventual hero. While the series may not have been about her, Lois was an important piece of its fabric. Turns out, those personality traits that will one day make her an award-winning reporter were there all along. She, Chloe, and Clark have to work together to clear her name. And if you think Lois is a handful, you haven't met Lucy.
As Tess Mercer is revealed to be Lionel's secret daughter, there's no way to ignore the ick factor that comes with this entire dynamic. Even if Tess isn't the best character Smallville ever created, she never deserved anything that Clark Luthor put her through.
Lois Lane is a fictional character on the television series Smallville; she was portrayed continually by Erica Durance since her first appearance in the season four premier "Crusade" to the series finale. Durance began as a guest star in season four but was promoted to series . This season, Lois and Clark officially begin a romantic relationship, while. When did Lois first start pursuing the Man of Steel? if the heroes are Oliver Queen and Clark Kent and they happen to be dating cousins.
Is it really a teen drama series if one best friend doesn't spend half the series longing for another, only to have their affections never be returned? The duo always worked far better as friends and partners in investigating freaks of the week, along with Pete and later Lois, than they ever did as a romantic possibility.
No matter how many wistful moments the series tried to shoehorn in, their chemistry always came across as much more akin to siblings than lovers - and thankfully, the series learned how to move on from that idea. We're not sure what it says that one of the few times Lana was given a good storyline, it involved a relationship that would ultimately turn out to be a horrible mistake.
Nevertheless, even if Jason and Lana would eventually spiral out of control once Jason's true intentions were revealed, there's no denying that Jason's character added a lot to Lana's storyline. For the first time, Lana had a romantic foil with whom she shared real on screen chemistry, as Kristin Kreuk and Jensen Ackles felt far more believable opposite one another than Kreuk ever did with Tom Welling or Eric Johnson.
Few relationships have such bordering on abusive a premise as this one. Davis Bloome, eventually revealed to be the host of the legendary DC villain Doomsday, has struggled with violent tendencies for quite some time. Looking past the absurd, alarming connotations of this codependent development, Chloe and Davis's relationship couldn't have come at a worse time. Putting endless strain on Chloe's relationship, and eventual engagement, to Jimmy Olsen, her toxic connection with Davis would lead to one of the worst decisions the show ever made.
It would be Davis himself who was ultimately responsible for Jimmy's tragic end, an unforgivable act that prevents any possible redeeming qualities from being found in this mess of a relationship.
Smallville - 9x04 - Echo - Clois talk about the possibility of a second date
Sometimes, relationships really are star-crossed from the beginning. Clark and Alicia were one of the series' most volatile relationships, even in the brief time that they were actually together.

Smallville may have been a series about Superman, but it was also a teenage soap opera that and adulthood of Clark Kent, the man who would become Superman. Click the button below to start this article in quick view week, along with Pete and later Lois, than they ever did as a romantic possibility. Clark comforted Lois as she began to wonder if she would ever find the right guy. .. While she was preparing for the date, Clark helped her zip up her dress.
Initially, Alicia's means of winning Clark over were less than reputable, given her reliance on Kryptonite to get him to do what she wanted. She was able to understand him, the parts of himself that he very rarely let anyone know about. From one Kryptonite freak to another, their connection was genuine, sweet, and made for some of the series' most adorable couple-related moments. Nothing says romantic like being forced into an uncomfortably tense dynamic with a zombified stalker. Somehow, that's actual logic used by Smallvillewhich found Lana Lang entering into a flirty friendship for a brief time with Adam Knight, played by future Lost and The Vampire Diaries star Ian Somerhalder.
What at first seemed like an innocent enough connection between two people working through physical rehab training soon turned very much darker. It was revealed that Adam was a previously deceased individual brought back to life by Lionel Luthor in order to spy on Clark and Lana back in Smallville. Smallville never really was very good at the whole first love thing.
November Six months after Contact, Clark modifies the Superman costume to better suit his needs, Knowing that his destiny did not lay on Earth with the first of the Kawatche, Kal-El's ancestor bids them .. September Lois Lane comes to Smallville to investigate Chloe's death. Chloe and Jimmy start dating.

Clark and Lois � Clark and Lana � Lex and Lana � Clark and Chloe � Clark and Lex � Chloe and Oliver � Clark and Lionel � Clark and Alicia. All items (84).
Teenage relationships were often overly melodramatic or lasted for far too long, sometimes even into adulthood. Few of these first love relationships contributed anything of worth to any of the characters or the series as a whole.
One of the only young love relationships that felt genuine and sweet was, ironically, one of the few unrequited dynamics the show briefly explored. Pete Ross and Chloe Sullivan were always depicted as the best of friends, but Chloe was too lovesick with her crush on Clark to ever give Pete the time of day in that way. However, that didn't stop Pete from secretly loving her from afar throughout their high school years, something that he admitted was his best kept secret when he finally impulsively kissed her.
From the very beginning, her personality was in direct conflict with almost everyone's, and her eventually revealed connection to the Luthor clan would always make her impossible to trust. Through their shared history on the island, and their instances of saving each other and falling for each other, Smallville was clearly trying to set them up as some sort of destined to be couple However, their storyline was never interesting enough to merit the amount of screen time that it received.

Q: std::unordered_set::insert(T&&): is argument moved if it exists This question is about the specification of several functions in the C++11 Standard Library, that take their arguments as rvalue references, but do not consume them in all cases. One example is
std::unordered_set<T>::insert(T&&).
It is pretty clear, that this method will use the move constructor of T to construct the element within the container, if it does not already exist. However, what happens if the element already exists in the container? I am pretty sure there is no reason the change the object in the case. However, I didn't find anything in the C++11 Standard supporting my claim.
Here is an example to show why this might be interesting. The following code reads lines from std::cin and remove the first occurrence of duplicate lines.
std::unordered_set<std::string> seen;
std::string line;
while (getline(std::cin, line)) {
    bool inserted = seen.insert(std::move(line)).second;
    if (!inserted) {
        /* Is it safe to use line here, i.e. can I assume that the
         * insert operation hasn't changed the string object, because
         * the string already exists, so there is no need to consume it. */
        std::cout << line << '\n';
    }
}

Apparently, this example works with GCC 4.7. But I am not sure, if it is correct according to the standard.

A: I found this note in the standard (17.4.6.9):

[ Note: If a program casts an lvalue to an xvalue while passing that lvalue to a library function (e.g. by calling the function with the argument move(x)), the program is effectively asking that function to treat that lvalue as a temporary. The implementation is free to optimize away aliasing checks which might be needed if the argument was an lvalue. — end note ]

While it doesn't directly answer your question it does indicate that you've effectively "given" the argument to the library function as a temporary so I wouldn't rely on its value once you've called insert. As far as I can tell, a library implementation would be entitled to move from the parameter even if it subsequently determines that it isn't going to keep the value in the container.

A: The semantics given for insert on unordered associative containers in §23.2.5/Table 103 don't specify whether the the move constructor of the argument to insert is invoked if the insert fails, the wording only talks about whether the insertion happens:

a_uniq.insert(t)
Returns: pair<iterator, bool>
Requires: If t is a non-const
  rvalue expression, T shall be MoveInsertable into X; otherwise, T
  shall be CopyInsertable into X.
Effects: Inserts t if and only if
  there is no element in the container with key equivalent to the key of
  t. The bool component of the returned pair indicates whether the
  insertion takes place, and the iterator component points to the
  element with key equivalent to the key of t.

However, the specification for emplace is clearer (also from Table 103), and you should be able to use it instead of insert to get the guarantees you want:

a_uniq.emplace(args)
Returns: pair<iterator, bool>
Requires: T shall be
  EmplaceConstructible into X from args.
Effects: Inserts a T object t
  constructed with std::forward(args)... if and only if there is
  no element in the container with key equivalent to the key of t. The
  bool component of the returned pair is true if and only if the
  insertion takes place, and the iterator component of the pair points
  to the element with key equivalent to the key of t.

I interpret this to mean ((Inserts a T object t constructed ...) (if and only if there is no element in the container ...)), i.e. both the insertion and construction should only happen if there is no matching element already in the container. If no object is constructed , the std::string you pass in will never be passed to a move constructor, and therefore will still be valid after the failed emplace call.
gcc 4.7.0 doesn't seem to support unordered_set::emplace, but it is in the standard (§23.5.6.1)

As @NicolBolas pointed out in the comments, and despite the above, it's impossible to implement an emplace function that doesn't construct a T if a conflicting entry already exists.
So the only way to get the semantics you want in a way that is standards-conforming would be to do a find followed by, conditionally, an insert or emplace.

A: It is correct.
Of course -when dealing with philosophy- anything can be questioned, but the compiler must do somehow.
The choice of the designers was that -to perform a move- there must be a place to go.
If there is no such a place, the move doesn't happen.
Note that whatever function takes a &&, it assume the the parameter is "temporary": if it doesn't "stole" the data, the temporary will be destroyed at the expression end.
If the temporariness had been coerced (via std::move), the object will stay in any case there until destroyed by its own scope. With or without its original data inside.

I drew my in-laws' dog, Bridget, for Christmas this year. She's become blind but is still very peppy.
Click on the arrows to navigate through the slides and hover over the image to see a description of my tools and techniques.
I sketched out Bridget in my sketchbook and then traced it onto my Stonehenge paper. I quickly scribble in Sky Blue (#146) to visualize the vignette effect I want to achieve.
Using Sky Blue (#146), Cobalt Blue (#143) and Helio-Blue Reddish (#151), I start filling in the background, planning out exactly where I want the colors to be darkest and where to fade into the lightest values. I wrap my finger in a tissue and rub the colors to blend and soften.
The background needs to be dark enough to contrast Bridget's white fur. Using Sky Blue (#146), I create the hard edge around Bridget's silhouette and fill in the rest of the background accordingly. I make it as soft and smooth as possible by carefully blending in the colors with tissue.
I wanted Bridget to appear warm against the cool background, so I began mapping out her fur using Cinnamon (#189). I fill in some of this shading with Sky Blue (#146) to show that her fur is reflecting the blue in the background.
I pushed the values more. Since her face is the focal point, I leave the highlighted parts of her face pure white and lightly shade in the rest of her body, especially the areas below the collar. The only three colors I used in her fur are Sky Blue (#146), Cinnamon (#189), and Violet (#138). I begin outlining Bridget in Helioblue-Reddish (#151), Violet, and Cinnamon.
Notice how I use a kneaded eraser to remove my pencil marks on her snout and forehead. I go back and fill in any visible pencil strokes and make sure that all edges in fur are clean. She's finished!

State Budget + Taxes
Whitmer wants federal COVID-19 relief doled out. Republicans want remaining restrictions lifted first.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer gives an update on COVID-19 | Gov. Whitmer office photo
Michigan House Republicans say that in order for the state's GOP-led Legislature to consider allocations for federal COVID-19 relief, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer will first need to reopen restaurants for indoor dining.
House Appropriations Chair Thomas Albert (R-Lowell) said last week he "can't envision starting conversations about how to allocate additional federal COVID-19 relief funds until the governor shows more willingness to restore the economy and a sense of normalcy."
"Enough is enough," Albert said in a statement Friday. "As the 101st Legislature prepares to convene [this] week, I am counting on the governor to be a full partner with lawmakers as mandated by our Constitution. I fully intend to employ the checks and balances required in our system of government. We will not simply hand over billions of taxpayer dollars to extend the current way of governing."
This is just the latest demand from the Republican-led Legislature for the Democratic governor's administration to forgo pandemic orders. Lawmakers have criticized since the first weeks of the pandemic and successfully sued in October to overturn the law she used for many of her COVID-19 orders.
DHHS COVID-19 graphic, Dec. 18, 2020
This follows a national trend for Republicans in other states.
Most restrictions have been lifted, including a ban on in-person learning for high schools and colleges, and venues like movie theaters and bowling alleys are open. The current restrictions on indoor dining, indoor group fitness classes, night clubs and more issued by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) are set to expire Friday. They were issued in November as Michigan saw its second wave of cases.
Michigan has more than 523,000 cases and 13,400 deaths as of Monday.
Last month, Congress approved another COVID-19 relief package of $900 billion and about $3.7 billion will be sent to Michigan.
The COVID-19 relief includes more than $90 million in vaccine funding for Michigan, more than $575 million for COVID-19 testing and tracing and more than $415 million in Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) funding to support hungry families.

During a press conference Friday, Whitmer said that she hopes Albert wasn't "implying that they would withhold hundreds of millions of dollars for vaccinations, for testing, for education, for our kids, for eviction relief."
"I hope that's not what they're threatening, because that would be just devastating to so many people in our state," Whitmer said.
State Rep. Ben Frederick (R-Owosso) sent Whitmer a letter Monday imploring her to lift the restaurant restrictions.
"The stories of hardship are everywhere," Frederick said in the letter. "Restaurant employees trying to provide for themselves and their children are at a financial breaking point. Families whose livelihoods revolve around operating a small restaurant are draining life savings, struggling to make ends meet, and getting in deeper financial trouble every single day that statewide restrictions continue."
Many business groups have clamored to end pandemic restrictions. Rich Studley, Michigan Chamber of Commerce president and CEO, took to Twitter last week to "commend" Albert for his stance.
"State [government's] response to COVID-19 can no longer hinge on one person and appropriation bills aren't blank checks," Studley tweeted.

Many Democrats were critical of the threat to withhold relief money while COVID-19 continues to spread across the state.
"It's totally irresponsible to even suggest holding hostage much-needed relief when vaccine distribution is the most important thing to getting the economy moving again," House Minority Leader Donna Lasinski (D-Scio Twp.) said in a statement. "I call on House Republicans to release the federal funds now for vaccines that can save lives and help reopen our economy."
Rep. Joe Tate (D-Detroit), the Democratic ranking member on Appropriations, said that now is not the time to "use desperately needed relief as a political bargaining chip."
Dr. Farhan Bhatti, a Lansing-based family physician and Michigan lead for the Committee to Protect Medicare called the GOP action "unconscionable, especially to health care workers like me who continue to put our lives on the line to keep our communities safe."
"This federal funding, which is already long overdue, is critical for us to be able to distribute more vaccines and do more tests to protect against COVID-19 spread," Bhatti said. "The vaccine is our best chance at being able to resume a more normal way of life, but House Republicans are intent on jeopardizing that to get their way on indoor dining, an activity that still presents considerable risk as a hyper-contagious new strain of the virus barrages our country. We all want to be able to support our local restaurants and employees in person, but the best way to do that is to get people vaccinated as quickly and effectively as possible to eradicate the pandemic — something Republicans are now standing directly in the way of doing."

SYDNEY (Reuters) - Andrew Bogut, one of the most decorated players in Australian basketball, is expected to sign with the reigning NBA champion Golden State Warriors, according to a report on the league's website on Monday.
Bogut, who became Australia's first number one NBA draft pick when Milwaukee selected him in 2005, spent his first seven seasons with the Bucks before joining the Warriors where he was a starting big man for their championship run in 2015.
Bogut was also with Golden State when they lost the 2016 NBA Finals despite holding a commanding 3-1 series lead over Cleveland. He has not played in the NBA since the 2017-18 campaign when he was with the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Melbourne-born veteran was an unsigned free agent when he joined Sydney last year and was emphatic about his plans to play out the duration of his two-year contract with the purple and gold.
Bogut, who has been a stalwart for Australia and appeared in three Olympic Games, was named the NBL's Most Valuable Player and Defensive Player of the Year this season.

Some CARICOM countries to benefit from PAHO agreement
Published:Saturday | February 3, 2018 | 12:46 PM
WASHINGTON (CMC):
Seven Caribbean Community (CARICOM) countries are to benefit from a new multi-country strategy for technical cooperation in health through 2024.
The strategy was signed between the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Dominica, Grenada, St Kitts- Nevis, St Lucia and St Vincent and the Grenadines.
DrCarissa F. Etienne, second from left at the signing agreement.
"This strategy is your vision of how PAHO/WHO can best support the work of your ministries of health in improving the health of their people," said the Director of the PAHO/World Health Organization (PAHO/WHO), Dr Carissa F. Etienne,
"It is aligned with your countries' national health policies, strategies and plans as well as with established Caribbean-wide health goals and the United Nations Multicountry Sustainable Development Framework for the Caribbean," she added.
The new strategy is the second agreement of its kind between PAHO and the seven countries and focuses on achieving previously unmet goals while also addressing new challenges the countries face, including health sector reform required to respond to the needs of aging populations, the growing burden of non-communicable diseases, and the health effects of climate change, among others.
PAHO said that the 2018-2024 Multi-country Cooperation Strategy for Barbados and Eastern Caribbean Countries is based on five strategic priorities: strengthening the countries' health systems to advance universal health coverage and access; reducing deaths and illness from communicable diseases like HIV, tuberculosis and hepatitis B; achieving optimum family health throughout the life course; reducing the burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs); and strengthening preparedness and response to health emergencies and disasters while also reducing environmental threats and risks.
"We hope that the priorities defined in this strategy will provide the support you need in the coming years to continue to make your health systems more resilient and to ensure that you achieve universal access to health and universal health coverage, as well as your other national health goals," said Etienne, who earlier this week began her second five-year stint as the PAHO/WHO director.
PAHO/WHO Representative for Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean countries, Dr Godfrey Xuereb, noted that the strategy was developed through a consultative process involving all the countries and representatives from the public and private health sector, other government ministries, nongovernmental organizations, civil society and key development partners.
Etienne said that the PAHO/WHO looks forward to continue working with other agencies and institutions, such as the Caribbean Public Health Agency, the University of the West Indies and the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States Secretariat, to improve the health of the peoples of the Caribbean.

How are social networks sites doing?
Alexa gives us a quick barometer of the where the social networks sites are in the relation to the rest of the web.
I'm very surprised Spoke has more traffic than GoodContacts — which has been around for a very long time.
This entry was posted in Web/Tech on December 10, 2003 by auren.
Note that the plaxo stats do not reflect most of our real web traffic since it takes place over SSL. More importantly, most of our social networking traffic occurs via our client-server software which is not tracked either. This is probably true for Good Contacts and others as well.
CreatorCo.com is not on the list… and I second Rick's comments regarding SSL.
Please note that we turned off server assisted mailing as the default mailing option in November, therefore, the majority of GoodContacts Enterprise customer mailings do not flow through our server. i.e. the GoodContacts traffic stats are not a good a comparative barometer of our social networking business.
LinkedIn uses SSL for all user sessions, so the number above only reflects people looking at our home page and are trying to decide whether or not to join (probably just 2% of our usage).
I think a better yardstick are the number of registered users (not uploaded email addresses, but people who signed up). The best yardstick is probably the number of successful referrals (contact requests) made since that is what networking is all about.


With a lot of competition in the segment, Kia has made some remarkable vehicles and put the pressure on rivals to step up their game, especially in the mid-size car market where there are a lot of great options available.
This week we�ll take a look at a sedan from Kia that encompasses a lot, but costs a little � the Forte EX.
From the outside, the Forte appears small because the design is one fluid and rounded shape. With the 17-inch wheels set close to the corners, the sedan appears athletic and modern. Up front are HID projector head lamps with LED accents and around back are full LED tail lamps with reflectors that appear to glow.
The updated 2014 models from Kia incorporate this glow effect into each car and it really sets Kia apart.
Inside, the Forte is spacious and inviting. I�m a fan of simple and clean design on the interior and don�t like a lot of different shapes, materials and clutter.
The dash in this car is driver focused with the navigation screen and climate controls angled slightly at the driver, and between the gauges is the �Supervision Meter Cluster� with a 4.2-inch LCD display. Under that large touch screen are the chunky rotary knobs for setting your desired temperature and a couple extra buttons for fan speed, mode and defrosting.
There is considerable legroom in the rear, even with two adults sitting up front. The EX model I drove had a ventilated driver�s seat that worked incredibly well during those hot summer days.
My phone connected within a minute to the UVO system and I was streaming music from my phone in no time.
Once you turn the car on and start driving, you really begin to enjoy the Forte. Some mid-sized sedans feel light and small, this car does not. It rolls well and the 2.0-liter GDI 4-cylinder engine with 173 horsepower and 154 pound-foot of torque launches the car easily down the road.
The only issue I had was the engine noise; it was a bit loud and sounded like ball bearings rattling in a coffee cup, especially under heavy acceleration.
The steering is customizable with three different settings. The option called �FlexSteer� provides three modes � Sport, Comfort and Normal to tailor responsiveness or assistance to your liking. The supervision meter I mentioned before is a great feature that houses all of your essential driving information in a sleek and attractive display. You can display a variety of info with the touch of a button.
The Forte looks compact and sporty from the outside while providing useful options and comfort on the inside. There wasn�t much to complain about after my time with the Forte besides the moderate engine noise.
Kia claims an average of 28 mpg, and I was able to maintain 26 mpg during my time with it on mostly suburban roads.
Starting price for the Forte is $19,400 and after adding the Premium package and the EX Technology package the sticker only reached $25,515. Some of the options included a heated steering wheel, heated front and rear seats, push-button start with smart key, HID headlights and navigation system.

UFT Launches Campaign to Promote Union Pride and Power
Tara Jessup
By Anne Silerstein
Reprinted from: New York Teacher
New York, NY – The UFT launched its Union Loud and Proud campaign at the Feb. 3 Delegate Assembly in response to the relentless attacks by right-wing billionaires on teachers unions and the rest of organized labor.
Those attacks have culminated in the Friedrichs v. California Teachers Association case before the U.S. Supreme Court that aims to torpedo the financial underpinnings of public-sector unions. (The Feb. 13 death of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia made a June ruling against the unions less certain, but the threat remains.)
UFT President Michael Mulgrew told the delegates the Friedrichs case is the latest effort in an organized, nationwide campaign to destroy the labor movement.
"We know what this case is really about," Mulgrew said. "A bunch of bad people don't like us because we stand up to them. They think that they're much smarter than us because they have billions of dollars, so therefore we should all shut up."
While the delegates got busy on their phones, staff members passed out Union Loud and Proud buttons. In addition, every delegate received a printed flier that outlined the "Top 10" benefits of belonging to a union as well as a fact sheet that explains the Friedrichs lawsuit. These fliers may be downloaded at www.uft.org/unionproud.
Mulgrew said the union's Loud and Proud campaign will serve two purposes: It will educate members about the Friedrichs case and the forces behind it, and it will disseminate information about the value of strong unions for members and the broader workforce.
Mulgrew said the union would be asking members who sign up for the campaign for their ideas of school-based and citywide actions. Meanwhile, he said, the union would be spreading the word on social media using the hashtag #unionproud.
In addition to galvanizing its own members, the UFT, by virtue of its size and its leading role in past battles, will help pave the way for other unions, he said. The UFT will provide other public-sector unions with support materials to build their own campaigns.
"We don't want to be the one big union standing here," Mulgrew said. "We have to help our brothers and sisters in these other unions."
Mulgrew said the UFT also will start highlighting the billionaires who are behind the anti-union efforts so they can no longer hide behind their think tanks and foundations.
"This is a clever, insidious attack on us," Mulgrew said. "They have not done this just to us. They have destroyed entire communities across the country — just destroyed them and left them in shambles. And they have no remorse whatsoever."

For the past several years, our company Loan Savers LLC has been using the Loan Saver PRO credit repair system to help mortgage companies save loans and turn �declined' borrowers into �approved' borrowers . Recently one of our clients asked us to provide a more affordable way for their credit challenged borrowers to have access to our amazing credit repair system . So after much consideration and several months in development, Loan Saver PRO is available to you for the first time ever.
Below is a brief outline of what you get with Loan Saver PRO: for Consumers. Please keep in mind that our system is not filled with 300+ pages of the same duplicated credit repair information you have seen before. Loan Saver PRO is just 57 pages but contains the most powerful credit repair information ever published.
