Children of Timothy Whitney
THE CHILDREN OF TIMOTHY AND ALICE WHITNEY:
NAMES AND BIRTHDATES
By Willard S. Moore
Some confusion surrounds the children of Timothy5 Whitney (Jonas4, Moses3, Richard2, John1) and his wife Alice, residents of Petersham, Mass. The list of children and birthdates given in Pierce's Whitney Genealogy does not match the list in the published Petersham vital records. The two lists are set forth below.
Pierce[1]
Published VR[2]
Oliver, b. 10 Mar. 1754 Oliver, b. 10 Mar. 175[torn] [1754?]
Abel, b. 19 Sept. 1752 Abel, b. 1 Sept. 175[torn]
Simon, b. 28 June 1756 Simon, b. 28 June 175[torn] [1757?]
Relief, b. 2 Feb. 1758 Releaf, b. 2 Feb. 1760
Peter, b. 20 Apr. 1760 Peter, b. 20 Apr. 1762
Silas, b. 29 Apr. 1762 Otis, b. 29 Apr. 1764
Timothy, b. 22 Apr. 1764 Timothy, b. 22 Apr. 1766
Hezekiah, b. 14 Oct. 1766 Hezekiah, 14 Oct. 1767
Jonathan, b. 14 Sept. 1768 Jonathan, b. 14 Sept. 1769
Jonas, b. 21 Oct. 1770 Jonas, b. 21 Oct. 1771
Alice, b. 3 Aug. 1772 Alice, b. 3 Aug. 1773
Oliver (again), b. 18 Jan. 1775 Oliver, b. 18 Jan. 1775
Paul (twin), b. 13 Apr. 1777 Paul (twin), b. 13 Apr. 177[torn]
Barnabas (twin), b. 13 Apr. 1777 Barnabas (twin), b. 13 Apr. 177[torn]
The births of the first four children, Oliver, Abel, Simon, and Relief, are also reported in the vital records of Harvard, Mass., with dates that match those reported by Pierce.[3] Thus, in the case of Relief, the Harvard and Petersham vital records conflict; with respect to the other three children, the Petersham records as published are inconclusive. The children after Relief are not listed in the Harvard records.
The next step in evaluating these various reports is to examine the town records of Petersham. Familysearch.org contains three separate volumes of Petersham town records. The first (hereinafter "Original Town Records") is evidently the oldest. The online caption for this record is "Births, Marriages, Deaths 1743-1837 vol. 1."[4] The initial page of the book bears the date of 1 October 1754, although a few records (possibly added later) predate that date. The index to the volume states that Timothy Whitney's children are recorded on page 8, but the pages are unnumbered and Timothy's children appear on the eleventh page of records. Unfortunately, this volume appears to have been rebound at some point, and many of the entries are now obscured by the tight binding.
The second volume (hereinafter "1893 Copy") bears the online caption "Births, Marriages, Deaths 1735-1839." The volume states at the beginning that is contains a copy made by the Town Clerk of the birth and other records in "the original first Book." The 1893 copy matches the published Petersham vital records cited above and is evidently the source for that volume. The third volume (hereinafter "1905 Copy") bears the online caption "Births, Marriages 1740-1905." The first three-quarters of this book consists of marriage intentions, running through 1905, and the last quarter contains birth records.
The records of the children of Timothy Whitney contained in the Original Town Records and the 1905 Copy are set forth below. (As noted previously, the 1893 Copy matches the published vital records.)
Original Town Records[5]
1905 Copy[6]
Abel born [binding] Abel born Sept. __, 175_
Oliver born March [binding] Oliver born March 10, 175_
Simon born June [binding] Simon born June 28, 175_
Releaf born February [binding] Relief born Feby 2, 176_
Peter born April [binding] Peter born April 20, 176_
[torn]s born April 25[?binding] Otis born April 23, 1762
[torn]imothy born April 20 [binding] Timothy born April 22, 1764
Hezekiah born October 14 [binding] Hezekiah born Oct. 14, 1766
Jonathan born September 12[?binding] Jonathan born Sept. 14, 1768
Jonas born October [binding] Jonas born Oct. 21, 1770
Alice born August 4[?binding] Alice born Aug. 3, 1772
Oliver born January 18 [binding] Oliver born Jan. 18, 1775
Paul ) born [binding] Paul ) born April 13, 177_
Barnabas ) Barnabas )
There are several points worth mentioning about these records, besides the tight binding mentioned previously. First, the name of the sixth child of Timothy and Alice is unclear in the Original Town Records. A quick reader might read it as "Otis" but it could be any of several names, including "Silas." Second, the 1905 copy reports dates that generally accord more with Pierce than with the published vital records.
Given these conflicting lists, and having seen that the Original Town Records in their current form do not resolve the conflict, the next step is to seek independent confirmation of birthdates for these Whitney children, which will most readily be found in death records.
Oliver. The Original Town Records report that he died 18 December 1772, aged 18 years, 9 months, and 8 days,[7] which corresponds precisely to the 10 March 1754 birthdate reported by Pierce.
Abel. An Abel Whitney died at Guilford, Vt., on 7 Aug. 1807, aged 55, which, if the decedent is the correct Abel Whitney, would be substantially consistent with the birthdate of 19 Sept. 1752 reported by Pierce.[8]
Simon. His gravestone in Petersham Center Cemetery reports that he died 12 March 1824, aged 67,[9] which corresponds to the June 1756 birthdate reported by Pierce.
Relief. She married Abel Wilder.[10] Her gravestone in Barre, Mass., reports that she died 19 July 1824 aged 66 years and 6 months,[11] which corresponds within a few days to the 2 February 1758 birthdate reported by Pierce, and is inconsistent with the 2 February 1760 birthdate in the published vital records.
Peter. According to the published vital records of Chester, Massachusetts, he died 5 March 1826, aged 66,[12] which is substantially consistent with the 20 April 1760 birthdate reported by Pierce, but inconsistent with the 20 April 1762 date in the published vital records. Newspaper accounts report his death on 6 March 1826, also at the age of 66.[13]
Silas. A newspaper account reports his death at Stockbridge, Massachusetts, on 11 April 1807, age 44,[14] which is consistent with the 29 April 1762 birthdate reported by Pierce, but inconsistent with the 29 April 1764 birthdate in the published vital records.
Timothy. There were several notices of his death on 14 February 1841, but no record has been found giving his birthdate or age at death.[15]
Hezekiah. According to the published vital records of Otis, Massachusetts, he died 25 Oct. 1839, aged 73 according to the church records, or 74 according to his gravestone.[16] The gravestone is no longer sufficiently legible (at least in the FindAGrave photograph) to confirm the published report.[17] These dates indicate a birthdate in 1766 or 1765, which is consistent with Pierce's report of a 1766 date, but less consistent with the 1767 date in the published vital records.
Jonathan. According to his gravestone, he was born in Otis, Massachusetts in 1768, and died in Cayuga, New York, in 1851.[18] The 1768 birthdate is consistent with the date reported by Pierce, but inconsistent with the 1769 date in the published vital records.
Jonas. According to the published vital records of Otis, Massachusetts, he died 23 Apr. 1845, aged 76 according to the church records, or 75 according to his gravestone.[19] These dates indicate a birthdate in 1769 or 1770, which is consistent with Pierce's report of a 1770 birthdate, but less consistent with the 1771 date in the published vital records. The gravestone is reported on FindAGrave, but without a picture.[20]
Alice. No death record, or other record that might indicate her date of birth, was located.
Oliver (again). The Otis records report that he died on 20 June 1780, aged 5 years, 5 months, and 2 days,[21] which is consistent with the birthdate of 18 January 1775 reported by both Pierce and the published vital records. The photograph of his gravestone on FindAGrave.com is difficult to read, but appears to match the published vital records.[22]
Paul. No death record, or other record that might indicate his date of birth, was located. According to Pierce, he resided in Quebec at the time of his death, which may have resulted in an absence of United States records.[23]
Barnabas. Newspaper accounts report his death on 27 July 1846, "in the 70th year of his age,"[24] which, if the expression is used properly, means that he was 69 years old, which is consistent with the birthdate of 13 April 1777 reported by Pierce.
The foregoing analysis demonstrates that in every case where Pierce differs from the published vital records of Petersham with respect to the dates of birth of the children of Timothy and Alice Whitney, and independent evidence can be discovered, the independent evidence supports Pierce and contradicts the published vital records. This result may be somewhat surprising, as Pierce is not the most admired of nineteenth-century genealogists.[25] In this instance, however, he found a reliable source. This accuracy, combined with the indeterminacy of the Original Town Records, also supports the contention that Timothy and Alice Whitney's sixth child was named Silas, not Otis.
There is a plausible explanation for the confusion concerning the birthdates of the Whitney children. Timothy and Alice's first child, Abel, was born 19 September 1752, a mere four months after their marriage on 20 May 1752.[26] A later commenter may well have been tempted to obscure this embarrassing fact, but, given the frequency with Alice gave birth, any adjustment of Abel's birthdate requires adjusting those of numerous other children.

How do you do soldering? Let's answer this question together with Hikaru.
Hikaru's diary on learning to solder is a truly excellent (and unintentionally hilarious) tutorial on soldering. The lessons are spread across 10 "stories" that cover topics such as the history of soldering, iron selection (including how various types of irons work), soldering theory, as well as through-hole and reflow soldering — all with the comedic precision that only precisely translated Japanese cartoons can convey.
This tutorial is straight from Hakko, maker of some of the best soldering irons you can buy, so you know the information is good (if a little biased). It's easily worth the 10 or 15 minutes it takes to read through, even if you're already a pro.

Q: How to set color of every 1st, 2nd, 3rd post in a list with Flask? I'm using Flask web framework with bootstrap, and for my enumeration of posts, I have a for each (post) in (posts) loop outputting the code for each post.
I want to make every 1st post one color, every 2nd post another, etc.
My instinctive approach is to declare an integer before the loop at 1 and then mod 3 that integer to decide which color to make the post, and then increment the integer.
However, Flask won't let me declare just an integer i = 0 like so
{{ i = 0 }}

That's probably glaringly wrong to people here, but I don't exactly get what kinds of things I can do with {{  }}.
Can anyone tell me if my approach is completely off and there is another easier way to do this, or what I am I doing wrong with my approach?

A: If you want to style, just use CSS.

and

{% for item in list %}

{{ item }}

{% endfor %}

For reference, review this question and its answers for examples with nth-child and this answer as the highest-rated nth-child answer.

A: This is best done using the CSS selector nth-child.  Use something like:
ul.striped li:nth-child(3n + 0) {
    background: red;
}

ul.striped li:nth-child(3n + 1) {
    background: blue;
}

ul.striped li:nth-child(3n + 2) {
    background: yellow;
}

Lists with class="striped" will now use three colours.

A: I'll add this for the sake of completeness. This isn't the only case where you might want to keep a counter from inside your template and although you're correct that {{ }} won't let you set a variable, Flask (jinja2) will allow you to use {% set  =  %}. As a result, you can achieve your desired result using the template system to conditionally assign classes and styling based on the resulting class names. E.g, to alternate between red and green rows:
{% set count = 0 %}
{% for i in my_list %}
  {% if count % 2 %}

  {% else %}

  {% endif %}
  {{ i }}

  {% set count = count + 1 %}
{% endfor %}

CSS:
li.odd{ background-color: #f00; }
li.even{ background-color: #0f0; }

This has the benefit of being IE8 compatible, though that's a very minor advantage nowadays. The main take-away point is that you can set variables in your template and there may be other cases where it can make sense to.

Today, Diamond-certified, global award winning rock band, Nickelback, released the music video for their new single "Song on Fire." Fans can tune into ET Canada tonight for an exclusive behind the scenes look at the making of the video and then watch the TODAY SHOW tomorrow, June 13th to see the band perform the song live along with their 2001 platinum selling hit single "How You Remind Me." "Song on Fire" is taken from their ninth studio album Feed the Machine which will be released this Friday, June 16th via BMG.
The video for "Song on Fire" explores these concepts further by telling a heartwarming tale of love prevailing. Interspersed throughout footage of the band performing, the video follows the story of a woman lost in the woods. The woods serve as a metaphor for the woman's struggle to find herself as well as her way back home. Phantoms from the woman's life try to point her in the right direction as an unknown man struggles to find and reach out to her. Unfortunately, the woman continuously slips through his fingers, driven in the opposite direction by an ominous hooded figure dressed in black. When all hope seems to be lost, a final act of love and devotion is able to break her free. As the woman comes back to reality it is revealed that the she was fighting for her life in the hospital – the phantoms her family and the unknown man her devoted husband.
"Song on Fire" is currently available across all streaming platforms and as an instant grat track via digital retailers. Tickets for the band's North American tour (produced by Live Nation) are also available. The Feed the Machine Tour kicks off June 23 in Noblesville, Indiana, and continues with 45 dates across North America including stops in Detroit, Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto and Vancouver, with more dates to be added along the way. Fan's in NYC will get the chance to catch the band perform ahead of the tour this week Wednesday, June 14 when they perform a special show at the iHeart Theater.


A nationwide manhunt came to an end Thursday night near the Texas-Mexico border after authorities captured 56-year-old Lois Riess, sought in the deaths of her husband in Minnesota and then her look-alike in Florida, the U.S. Marshals Service confirmed late Thursday.
She was found sipping a drink at the bar inside the Sea Ranch Restaurant in South Padre Island, Tex., appearing "cool as a cucumber" until the marshals arrived to take her into custody without incident, the restaurant's manager, Becky Galvan, told The Washington Post.
Riess was wanted by federal and local authorities in Florida, where police believe she befriended and killed Pamela Hutchinson, who had the same light blond hair as Riess. Police believe Riess then stole Hutchinson's car and her identity and fled to Texas.
Riess is also a person of interest in her husband's death in Minnesota, according to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Authorities said they believe she stole his money to go gambling in Iowa before traveling to Florida.
No attorney for her could be located, and it was unclear whether she has one.
She was known in the small town of Blooming Prairie, Minn. — population 1,987 — as "Losing Streak Lois" because of her gambling addiction, the U.S. marshals said.
Riess was arrested on warrants for second-degree murder, grand theft, grand theft of a vehicle and criminal use of personal identification.
Riess first came under suspicion in Minnesota after her husband's business partner in his worm farm operation contacted local authorities to notify them that David Riess had been missing for a couple of weeks, as the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported. When police arrived at the worm farm on March 23, they found him dead. He had suffered several gunshot wounds.
By that time, Lois Riess was gone.
Investigators believe that on March 23, Riess drove to a bank in Glenville, Minn., and forged her husband's signature to cash more than $10,000 in stolen checks from him and his business, according to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. After that, investigators say she spent the day gambling at Diamond Jo Casino in Northwood, Iowa.
She was spotted on surveillance stopping at a Kum & Go gas station next to the casino to purchase a sandwich and ask for directions, authorities said.
She was apparently headed to Florida.
That's where she met and soon befriended 59-year-old Pamela Hutchinson, authorities said.
On April 5, Riess was caught on surveillance video dining with Hutchinson at the Smokin' Oyster Brewery during happy hour, police said. Other surveillance photographs captured Riess and Hutchinson together at Hutchinson's Fort Myers Beach condo, where, several days later, on April 9, police said they found Hutchinson dead.
Authorities believe she used the same firearm to kill Hutchinson that she allegedly used to kill her husband.
Inside the condo, Hutchinson's purse had been emptied. Her identification was missing along with her car.
Police said they believe Riess stole them to assume Hutchinson's identity, since the two looked alike.
In the days after Hutchinson's death, her 2005 white Acura with Florida tags was spotted in Louisiana and outside Corpus Christi, Tex., which is a few hours up the coast from South Padre Island.
The U.S. Marshals Service and local Florida and Minnesota authorities all warned that Riess was considered armed and dangerous, urging anyone who spotted her to alert police but stay away from her.
Finally, around 8:30 p.m. Thursday, marshals located her at the Sea Ranch Restaurant.
She didn't look armed and dangerous, said the restaurant manager Galvan, and she did not appear suspicious. Galvan said she had been sitting there for about an hour and a half, when she got a call from law enforcement notifying her that there was a customer in her restaurant named Lois Riess, whom they were coming to arrest.
John Kinsey, a deputy U.S. marshal, told The Washington Post that it was unclear whether Riess was on her way to Mexico. He said she had checked in at a local hotel.
"She paid up for a couple of weeks," he said.
The marshals found Hutchinson's car in a nearby parking lot.

The double-spending problem has been a conundrum in the digital-cash realm for decades. In fact, it was the double-spending problem that held back the advancement of peer to peer digital cash. It wasn't until the arrival of the Bitcoin Network that a p2p decentralized digital currency really began to be viable.
Your cautionary post on the Bitcoin Doubler Scam got me thinking about the double-spending problem.
Wont a miner be able to "double spend" his bitcoin by simply broadcasting a transaction on the network and then quickly mine a block that sends the same bitcoin to another merchant?
Good question, Juan. This is actually a common misunderstanding. But before I answer you, let's quickly explain the double spending problem for the readers who may be unfamiliar with it.
Anything digital can be copied – anything. And more importantly: it can be copied exactly. This is a huge problem in the digital space when pertaining to digital rights management and… digital cash. Pirated movies, pirated music, pirated software etc. have all been birthed from our ability to copy anything that is in digital format. To most of you, this has been a blessing in disguise.
But imagine if digital cash could be pirated as well?
However, centralized solutions pose a single-point-of-failure problem. They can easily be hacked or compromised externally (bribed). But for decades, it was the only solution we had – until Bitcoin came into the picture.
Satoshi Nakamoto proposed an elegant solution in his whitepaper where he explained how the Bitcoin Network would solve the double-spending problem.
Misunderstanding Double Spending Problem In Bitcoin?
Similar to centralized solutions, Bitcoin also uses a ledger to keep track of transactions. However, this ledger is stored across the globe at multiple locations (called nodes).
This global ledger is called the "Blockchain".
Why? Well, because it's simply a chain of "blocks". Each of these blocks contain transactions that have taken place in the network.
New transactions that are broadcasted to the network are picked up and put into these "blocks" by miners. Once the block is created, a miner will initiate his mining process where he attempts to solve the Cryptographic Puzzle.
The miner who solves the puzzle first wins the "right" to submit his block to the blockchain (the global ledger). They then move on to the block of new transactions.
This is where Juan's question comes into play. He's asking about this hypothetical scenario that explains the (misunderstood) double spending problem.
The network & miners pick up the transaction.
Miner Joe wins the cryptographic puzzle, so his block goes through.
Is that a double spend?
No, it is not a double-spend at all. Sure – it is an attempted double spend.
But Miner Joe was not able to pull it off.
Why? Because Joe's block with his transaction : "Joe sends 10 BTC to Bob" got added to the chain. This means that the blocks containing the transaction: "Joe sends 10 BTC to Alice" did not get added – and was never considered at all.
Remember, Joe won the Cryptographic Puzzle race, so his block gets added to the chain, while everyone else's block is rejected.
Ah, but what if Joe was not the only one who solved the puzzle?
Often, more than one miner may solve the cryptographic puzzle. This means that multiple blocks may be added to the chain at the same point – resulting in a blockchain Fork.
Would this be a successful double-spend? It may look like it – but nope, this is not a successful double-spending attack.
The blockchain has forked into two different chains, one with Joe's block as the newest block; and the other with Collin's block as the newest block. It is here that the Bitcoin Network will have to pick one of the chains as its main chain. How does it pick it? It will essentially use the Longest Chain Rule.
I explain the Longest Chain Rule using a simple analogy in the post above. But I'll quickly go over it here.
Essentially, the network will pick the chain that is the "longest" as it's main chain. This means that the network will have to wait for a few more blocks to be added to the chain before a decision can be made.
If the chain with Joe's block outpaces the chain with Collin's block, then Joes block will be valid since it will be in the winning chain. Collin's block, however, will be considered "orphaned" and invalid.
Even if the opposite happens, it won't matter – because only one of the two transactions will be considered valid. So the double-spending problem doesn't really come into play here.
Double Spending Problem: Confirmations are Key!
But what about Alice? Is she at risk here? In fact, Alice is actually at risk of being victim to a pseudo double-spending problem. I say "pseudo" because it is not so much a double-spending problem within the network, but "outside" of it.
As a merchant, Alice may get tricked by this and give Joe some merchandise. However, this is not a fault of a network – but more so a human error. The bitcoin was not officially "double spent" inside the network.
This is precisely why it is always recommended to wait for "Confirmations" on your transactions. Each "confirmation" represents an additional block being added to the block which contains your transaction.
Every time a block gets added (a confirmation), it means that there is an increased probability of your transaction being in the Longest Chain. At around 5-6 confirmations, you can be pretty sure that your transaction is safe – you won't be at risk of a double-spending attack.
So...Is A Double-Spend Even Possible in Bitcoin?
Yes, a double-spend is technically possible in the Bitcoin Network. However, it's going to be extremely difficult and expensive to pull it off.
If Miner Joe wanted to actually commit a double-spend, he'd have to start mining his own private chain secretly. In the original chain he'd send the 10 bitcoin to Alice. But in his private chain he'd send the 10 Bitcoin to Bob.
He'd then wait for Alice to receive her six or more confirmations. In the mean time, he would have to ensure that he mines fast enough so that his private chain outpaces the original chain. If his private chain becomes the longest chain, the rest of the network will switch over to mining on his chain instead – because of the Longest Chain Rule. This way he can pull off a successful double-spending attack.
However, this is a lot easier said than done. In my post on Proof Of Work - Determining Majority Power, I discuss how CPU Power is a crucial part of the consensus process. Miner Joe would need to expend a lot of energy and have a lot of computing power to actually outpace the Bitcoin Network.
He would essentially need at least 51% of entire networks hashpower to outpace the network eventually. Remember, he has to solve a cryptographic puzzle for each an every block. And he only has a chance to win each block. His chance to win, however, is directly proportional to his hashpower. This is why the community tries to ensure that no particular mining pool has too much control of the Bitcoin Network. Anything over 50% makes the network vulnerable to an attack!

James Baldwin honored by Regina King in Oscar win for 'If Beale Street Could Talk'
Regina King dedicated her Oscar win Sunday night to gay literary icon James Baldwin.
King won the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award — her first Oscar nomination — for her dramatic role in "If Beale Street Could Talk," which was based on Baldwin's 1974 novel of the same name. The film adaption was written and directed by Barry Jenkins, his first film since "Moonlight" won the Best Picture Oscar in 2017.
"To be standing here representing one of the greatest artists of our time, James Baldwin, is a little surreal," King said, holding back tears, as she held her golden statute. "James Baldwin birthed this baby and Barry, you nurtured her, and surrounded her with so much love and support."
Black History Month: For James Baldwin, his queerness and blackness were intersectional
"If Beale Street Could Talk" is set in Harlem in the early 1970s. The film tells the love story of recently engaged African-American couple, who are childhood sweethearts. The young woman tries to prove her fiancé, who has been falsely accused of rape, is innocent while carrying their first child. King plays the mother of the pregnant woman.
GAY, LITERARY ICON
Baldwin, a novelist and poet, is a towering figure in literary history. Baldwin, who identified as gay, also became one of the loudest, most lauded, and celebrated voices of the Civil Rights Movement.
Baldwin is best known for several works: "Go Tell It on the Mountain," "Another Country," and his 1963 classic "The Fire Next Time."
For Baldwin, his queerness and his blackness were inseparable. He was intersectional before the word existed.
'Black Panther' cinematographer Rachel Morrison makes Oscar history with 'Mudbound'
'SISTERS IN ART'
Leading up to the Academy Awards, King won a Golden Globe and Critics Choice Award, among other accolades.
Onstage, King also thanked her "sisters in art" who were nominated in the category with her: Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz from "The Favourite," Marina de Tavira from "Roma," and Amy Adams from "Vice."

Канал Варна — Девня — система глибоких водних шляхів (2 канали та 2 озера) в Варненській області, північно-східна Болгарія.

З'єднує міста Варна (на сході) і Девню (на заході), починаючи від Варненської затоки Чорного моря, проходячи через Варненське і Білославське озера вздовж міста Белослав і декількох сіл. Загальна довжина каналу складає 22 кілометри. Уздовж його берегів облаштовано ряд портів.

На березі каналу розташована ТЕЦ «Варна», яка бере для технологічних потреб воду з каналу.

Історія

Ідеї побудови каналу існувала з XVIII століття. Відомий британський письменник Чарльз Діккенс, будучи військовим кореспондентом у Варні під час Кримської війни (1853-1856), вперше висловив думку щодо проєкту такого каналу, розроблений болгарами, але не був погодженний османським султаном Абдул-Меджидом I в 1847 році.

В кінці XIX — початку XX століття був прокладений тимчасовий канал між затокою Варни і озером Варна.

Нинішній водний шлях побудований в 1970-х роках. Між Варненською затокою і Варненським озером канал є подвійним, утворюючи найбільший річковий острів у Болгарії (розміром приблизно 3 кілометри на 900 метрів), званий місцевими жителями Острова або Галата. Над ним проходить Аспарухів міст. Ця секція, названа Каналом № 1, викопана з 1970 по 1976 рік. Він був офіційно відкритий 1 вересня 1976 року. Канал № 2 виритий між Варненським озером і Девнею в 1976-1978 роках.

Q: JavaScript Math.floor: how guarantee number will round down? I want to normalize an array so that each value is
 in [0-1) .. i.e. "the max will never be 1 but the min can be 0."
This is not unlike the random function returning numbers in the same range.
While looking at this, I found that .99999999999999999===1 is true!
Ditto (1-Number.MIN_VALUE) === 1 But Math.ceil(Number.MIN_VALUE) is 1, as it should be.
Some others: Math.floor(.999999999999) is 0
 while Math.floor(.99999999999999999) is 1
OK so there are rounding problems in JS.
Is there any way I can normalize a set of numbers to lie in the range [0,1)?

A: It may help to examine the steps that JavaScript performs of each of your expressions.
In .99999999999999999===1:

*

*The source text .99999999999999999 is converted to a Number. The closest Number is 1, so that is the result. (The next closest Number is 0.99999999999999988897769753748434595763683319091796875, which is 1–2–53.)

*Then 1 is compared to 1. The result is true.

In (1-Number.MIN_VALUE) === 1:

*

*Number.MIN_VALUE is 2–1074, about 5e–304.

*1–2–1074 is extremely close to one. The exact value cannot be represented as a Number, so the nearest value is used. Again, the nearest value is 1.

*Then 1 is compared to 1. The result is true.

In Math.ceil(Number.MIN_VALUE):

*The source text .99999999999999999 is converted to a Number. The closest Number is 1, so that is the result.

*The floor function of 1 is 1.

There are only two surprising things here, at most. One is that the numerals in the source text are converted to internal Number values. But this should not be surprising. Of course text has to be converted to internal representations of numbers, and the Number type cannot perfectly store all the infinitely many numbers. So it has to round. And of course numbers very near 1 round to 1.
The other possibly surprising thing is that 1-Number.MIN_VALUE is 1. But this is actually the same issue: The exact result is not representable, but it is very near 1, so 1 is used.
The Math.floor function works correctly. It never introduces any error, and you do not have to do anything to guarantee that it will round down. It always does.
However, since you want to normalize numbers, it seems likely you are going to divide numbers at some point. When you divide, there may be rounding problems, because many results of division are not exactly representable, so they must be rounded.
However, that is a separate problem, and you have not given enough information in this question to address the specific calculations you plan to do. You should open a separate question for it.

A: Please understand one thing: this...
.999999999999999999

... is just a Number literal. Just as
.999999999999999998
.999999999999999997
.999999999999999996
...

... you see the pattern.
How JavaScript treats these literals is completely another story. And yes, this treatment is limited by the number of bits that can be used to store a Number value.
The number of possible floating point literals is infinite by definition - no matter how small is the range set for them. For example, take the ones shown above: how many of numbers very close to 1 you may express? Right, it's infinite: just keep appending 9 to the line.
But the container for each Number value is quite finite: it has 64 bits. That means, it can store 2^64 different values (Infinite, -Infinite and NaN among them) - and that's all.
You want to work with such literals anyway? Use Strings to store them, not Numbers - and some BigMath JS library (take your pick) to work with those values - as Strings, again.
But from your question it looks like you're not, as you talked about array of Numbers - Number values, that is. And in no way there can be .999999999999999999 stored there, as there is no such Number value in JavaScript.

A: Javascript will treat any number between 0.999999999999999994 and 1 as 1, so just subtract .000000000000000006.
Of course that's not as easy as it sounds, since .000000000000000006 is evaluated as 0 in Javascript, so you could do something like:
function trueFloor(x)
{
    x = x * 100;
    if(x > .0000000000000006)
        x = x - .0000000000000006;
    x = Math.floor(x/100);
    return x;
}

EDIT: Or at least you'd think you could. Apparently JS casts .99999999999999999 to 1 before passing it to a function, so you'd have to try something like:
trueFloor("0.99999999999999999")

function trueFloor(str)
{
    x=str.substring(0,9) + 0;
    return Math.floor(x); //=> 0
}

Not sure why you'd need that level of precision, but in theory, I guess it works. You can see a working fiddle here
As long as you cast your insanely precise float as a string, that's probably your best bet.

Granite Gorge Ski Area in Roxbury, pictured Sunday, is unlikely to reopen for skiing, according to its owner.

Granite Gorge unlikely to reopen for skiing, owner says
By Caleb Symons Sentinel Staff
Caleb Symons
ROXBURY — The embattled Granite Gorge Ski Area is unlikely to reopen its slopes, according to owner John Baybutt.
The business, which closed in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and didn't open last winter, could still offer tubing if someone else runs that operation, he said Sunday.
But Baybutt, 66, said his late brother, Fred, was the "driving force" behind Granite Gorge when they owned it together. After Fred died last year, the elder Baybutt said he'd prefer to focus on his farm in Bennington and enjoy retirement rather than reopen the ski area.
"I've pretty much decided to move on from it," he said.
Granite Gorge had been slated for sale by its mortgage-holder two years ago, but a foreclosure auction for the property was later canceled, The Sentinel reported at the time.
Baybutt, who purchased the business — the former Pinnacle Mountain — with his brother in 1999, declined to say Sunday whether he wants to sell it. He said the ski area isn't facing any significant financial issues, explaining that when closed, its main costs are a small electrical bill, insurance and property taxes.
Baybutt said he'd found someone earlier this year to run tubing at Granite Gorge, which it has offered in the past along with a terrain park, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. But those plans have not yet come together, he said.
"Right now, we're kind of on hold," he said. "So that's kind of unfortunate."
Pinnacle Mountain opened in 1959 — offering a day pass for $3 in its early years — but closed in the late 1970s, according to a previous Sentinel report.
After purchasing the 144-acre property just before the turn of the century, the Baybutt brothers reopened Granite Gorge in 2003, according to Fred Baybutt's obituary, which says he served for many years on the board of directors of Ski New Hampshire, a nonprofit industry group based in Conway. The ski area had more than a dozen trails and offered lessons as well as a popular youth program that drew as many as 150 local kids one year, John Baybutt said Sunday.
"We saw them go from knee-high to off to college," he said. "Some of them became incredible freestyle skiers."
But the business, which also faced foreclosure in 2013 along with multiple other properties tied to the Baybutts' Keene-based construction firm, had been embroiled in controversy for much of the past half-decade.
A mechanical issue in January 2016 caused a chair on the ski area's double chairlift to slide backward down the lift and collide with the next chair, which was carrying two children. The adults in the defective chair were taken to Cheshire Medical Center and later released with no major injuries, while the kids were unharmed, authorities said at the time.
State regulators also proposed a $24,000 fine on Granite Gorge LLC, which owns the ski area, in 2019, a year after revoking the license of a summer camp there over reported safety violations. After a parent complained that campers were poorly supervised, the N.H. Department of Environmental Services found that kids were swimming without lifeguard supervision and that the camp's co-directors, who were 21 and 17, didn't have the requisite experience for that role.
The agency dropped its proposed fine last year after lawmakers revised the statute that was the basis for the alleged infractions.
Granite Gorge's auction listing in 2019 valued the property — which includes a lodge, a bar and grill, and a rental center — at close to $544,000. The listing said more than $13,000 in unpaid taxes were owed on the site, The Sentinel reported at the time.
But the auction was canceled, Fred Baybutt told The Sentinel, after the ski area met the bank's terms and paid those taxes.
Keene High School's alpine ski team left Granite Gorge for Pats Peak in Henniker two years ago, according to coach Sean Graves, who took the helm that same year.
Still, Graves, a Spofford resident who also used to help run an adult-racing program at Granite Gorge, said much of the team grew up skiing the local hill. Its likely closure, he said, is a "huge loss."
"I think the community really misses it," he said, noting that the closest ski areas are now Pats Peak and Crotched Mountain in Bennington. "... A lot of the skiers that are on the team right now did cut their teeth at Granite Gorge."
John Baybutt said Sunday he remembers fondly all the kids who grew up skiing there.
"It was a good thing while we were doing it," he said. "It provided a lot of opportunity for the youth of the Keene area."

Not that it was really difficult to pair raspberries and chocolate. But I am serious when I say that this is one of the most amazing buttercreams I have ever tasted. Pair that with one of the BEST CHOCOLATE CAKE recipes, there really is no reason for anyone not to make this.
If I haven't mentioned it before, this raspberry buttercream is amazing. The raspberry puree gives a beautiful, and spellbindingly bright colour and the tastes of fresh berries.
Now I'm going to seem like a whiner here, because I am one. As delicious as this buttercream is, it doesn't pipe well. There is too much liquid in the raspberries. When I beat it in with the butter and icing sugar, the hydrophobic fats don't want to emulsify with the delicious pulpiness of raspberries.
If I use less raspberries, I lose the colour and flavor. If I add more icing sugar to stiffen it, the sweetness overpowers the tartness and it's the same problem.
So, as you can see, I just stuck it out. To hide the imperfections in the look of the icing (trust me, it still tastes amazing!), I piped pretty little roses instead!
Either way, these cupcakes were a hit with everyone and said that only I would complain about first world problems like that.
I should really just stop complaining and eat it. Plus, next week, I decide to use the icing in a more novel fashion. STAY TUNED!!!
The best Chocolate Cake Recipe in the world.
Add the milk, eggs, oil and vanilla into the dry ingredients and mix until well combined (medium speed). Drop the mixer to low and carefully add the coffee into the batter. When you are no longer in danger of scalding yourself (I definitely burned my hand whilst doing this), bring the speed up to high and beat it for 1 minute to add some air into the batter.
You can either divvy up the batter for cupcakes or 2 9 inch cake rounds.
In a food processor/blender, puree the raspberries and pass them through a sieve to eliminate the seeds. Put the puree aside.
In a mixer, beat the butter and half the sugar until it is smooth. Pour in the puree and vanilla. It will look a little chunky, but don't worry. It will still taste amazing, I assure you. When it looks fully incorporated, add the rest of the icing sugar. Beat until smooth.
Yummy! Raspberry and chocolate are such a natural pair…but you've really sold me on the deliciousness of the buttercream! Sounds like a must try recipe. 🙂 Your fabulous photos really show the richness in the chocolate cake too. Thank you for sharing your fabulous recipe with all of us at Fiesta Friday!
These look just too pretty to eat!
When they are as delicious as they are, they are never too pretty to eat.
Chocolate and raspberry is one of my all time favourite flavour combos, that buttercream sounds so good! I think they look really pretty too, I can see from the photos that the consistency can't be easy to pipe but you did a good job!
I am in awe- these are frosted so beautifully!!
Wow! The frosting is so beautiful!

Neighborhood Nonprofits: Immanuel Christian School
Our Communications and Resource Manager, Meghan, had the opportunity to sit down with Susan Selby, the Director of Development/Administrator for the Immanuel Christian School, and speak about the school's 40-year history and future-focused vision.
The organization started out in the basement of the Grace Fellowship Church in 1979 with 11 students.
They have since grown to reside in two campuses in Hazleton, and serve 150 students in grades Pre-K to 12th grade. One location houses their Pre-K to 6th grade students on Locust Street, and their Jr. and Sr. high school students have moved to a new location on N. Laurel Street – in the heart of downtown Hazleton.
The school's mission is to provide a financially accessible, grace-based, quality education that informs and shapes students to be lifelong learners and selfless community servants. They have a particular focus on serving under-resourced students within the greater Hazleton area.
"Moving the high school students downtown is consistent with our efforts to be a blessing to the city, and we feel that we can do that by investing in the kids in the city and providing them with Christian education. To really help the students engage with the city, we need to be downtown. So, this is a stepping stone towards achieving our long-term vision," says Selby.
To support their mission, the school offers a need-based indexed tuition model. Some families pay as little as $250/month for a student, determined by household income, which is made possible by individual, business, and foundation contributions.
3 out of 4 of their students live in an economically disadvantaged household and 98% of their students receive tuition assistance of some sort. Additionally, the school offers learning support services to help acclimate under-resourced students into higher academic standards. To further support their growing diversity, they have also started to offer some ESL services to students for whom English is a second language.
The Immanuel Christian School features small, student focused classes with an average size of 15 students, which Selby sees as a unique educational benefit. "The biggest thing that sets us apart is the relational connection with the students. Because of intentionally keeping our class size small, it allows the teachers to give the students individualized attention in academics, but the biggest thing is the character building underneath. The personal relationships that are built between the student and the teacher and even the administration are huge, especially when you have a child with difficult life circumstances," says Selby.
Selby describes the type of education that students receive at the school as an other-focused, grace-based educational system that has a missional model. "On a spiritual level, we are adding a 3rd dimension to education. When a student accepts that God loves him/her, that is hugely empowering to making good choices and living a life of integrity that is other-focused with a priority of serving others. In the area of discipline, we do our best to focus on the heart, rather than just behavior. That is easier to do when you have smaller classes and connected relationships with your students, says Selby."
This grace-based model can be seen both in and outside of the classroom. The halls are quiet. Discipline is focused on the heart rather than just behavior. This means more conversations and dialogue and even prayer. Another part of character shaping is teaching students the value of hard work. If a student does poorly on a test, they work with their teacher and learning support to make all of the necessary corrections on the exam to ensure that they understand the material, rather than just moving on. Students are also expected to complete all of their homework, regardless of how late an assignment is. This teaches them the value of following through with tasks. In the lunch room, students wipe down the tables, clean up their garbage from the floor, and sweep up their area of the floor. Selby says that this teaches the students to be responsible and that work is a good thing – it's a privilege.
Selby also explained that the school wants "the city to be our campus," where the students truly interact with and take ownership within the city of Hazelton. Students currently take gym classes at the Hazelton YWCA, visit the Hazelton Art League for art enrichment programs, and even visit local restaurants for chaperoned lunch field trips. Seniors also shadow local business owners as a career exploration tool, and have had internship opportunities at local businesses and in local trades.
In the future, the school plans to focus more on service-learning opportunities for the students, where community projects that are student-led can be incorporated into academic curriculum and simultaneously benefit the local community. They would like to further expand student opportunities in the trades, because they recognize that some students may be interested in following that life path instead of attending a college or university and our area has a demand for skilled workers in those industries. Of their students that do want pursue a degree at the higher education level, they are well prepared by the school's curriculum and they score well on the SATs.
In their immediate future, the school's biggest goal and point of focus is moving all of their students to their campus on N. Laurel Street, both to further their mission and connection to the city, and to ensure the school's sustainability. They share the Laurel St. building with a local church that has a similar mission, and the school was given the opportunity to remodel the entire 6,000 square foot lower level in exchange for free rent for a minimum of 7 years. Their goal is for Pre-K – 6th grade students classes to be held on the lower level, while the Jr. and Sr. high school students would be housed on the upper floors.
Selby and the school are launching a capital campaign to raise funds for the remodel, with a goal of $500,000. After two successful years in their race for education where the students raised $30k and then $40k last year, the students are aiming to raise $50,000 in the Race for Education this year, and Selby is challenging the community to match their goal with another zero.

A man restoring life and glory to an aging, abandoned automobile isn't unusual.
Mystical though is the car's, almost human, response to the man's slowly emerging disabilities.
Their 60-year journey of reciprocity begins in a Connecticut garage. It was love at first sight. Mike, a 17-year old Lewistown, Montana cowboy, wanted to own the1941 Dodge D-19 Luxury Liner convertible. She sat neglected and alone with a bale of hay on her backseat.
Two years after driving the Dodge home to Montana, Mike left her to go to war. Eventually she found herself at the bottom of a Montana coulee. Twenty years passed, a tree grew through her body and wildflowers flowed from her glove box.
She almost gave up hope of seeing him again. Meanwhile a silent invader took root inside Mike forcing him down into his own pit.
On forty acres outside Northfield, Minnesota, the car/man journey of rebirth folds Mike's lifelong passion for cars into his wife, Anne's love of food, plants and children. While Anne, a French-trained chef, provides peace and sustenance for guests at her country B&B, Mike, a potter and sculptor, juggles a robust auto restoration business in the basement of the garage with a pottery and sculpture studio upstairs. Life at full-throttle.
As Parkinson's disease threatens to drastically alter the couple's lifestyle, the Dodge adds a powerful ingredient to their Quality of Life recipe. This story of perseverance, love and commitment is not just a tale of restoring a "rolling sculpture." For Mike and the Dodge, the evolution of their magical bond ultimately provides a life-line for both.


The German-American League's 2014 celebration under the auspices of the Consulate General of Germany is bigger than ever. Add a Soccer World Championship for Germany, along with the 25th anniversary celebration of the fall of the Berlin Wall, and a bit of Oktoberfest to existing German National Day celebrations and you have a party of immense proportions.
On October 5, 2014, join the German-American League at Alpine Village in Torrance, starting at 11 am through 6 pm, to hear German music live both Oompah and Rock, savor traditional and contemporary German food, follow it with legendary German beers, see authentic folk dances, learn about the Karneval (German Mardi Gras) traditions, visit exhibits about German history in the US, experience the history of the infamous Berlin Wall, watch screenings of Oscar nominated German short films, observe the Heritage Queen selection, all mixed with a healthy dose of Oktoberfest, and activities and games for the children. Stay late and catch the "After Party" celebration that will extend late into the night inside the Alpine Inn.
German-American Heritage Day is the perfect time and place to explore German-American history and to discover German contributions to US history. From the traditional celebration in the big Oktoberfest tent with folk dancing and German songs to exhibits about German participation in the U.S. Civil war and the first German Clubs in Los Angeles in the year 1859, to the joyous celebration of Karneval, the German version of Mardi Gras with a display of original costumes and masks from different parts of Germany. Games and fun for the kids are provided in a play area with face painting, Clowns, Games, and many other activities.
The culinary approach is also interesting: German-American Heritage Day is a treat for the palate as well. Alpine Village will prepare traditional and contemporary German food which includes the famous Germanized Turkish specialty "Döner Kebab" and the "Currywurst" which have a similar status in Germany as the hamburger has in the US. The German Heritage Day will also introduce you to Oscar nominated German Short films that reflect contemporary German culture. The selection of the Heritage Queen, who reigns similar to the May Queen, or Oktoberfest Queen over the event, and a Raffle are also on the program.
The influence of German culture on Mexican and Latin American culture is also undeniable. Norteño music, and several other styles, are close relatives of the Oompah music, Polka and Waltz, played at German Heritage Day and at Oktoberfest celebrations around the country. And the best beers that are brewed from Mexico to South America are based on German beer recipes and the craft of German brewers that immigrated to those countries.
The German-American Heritage Day is celebrated under the patronage of the Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany and supported by the Goethe Institut, the German-American Heritage Museum, the law firm of Fredricks & von der Horst, and by its host, Alpine Village.
German American Heritage Day in Los Angeles is an annual combined celebration of the re-unification of Germany, which Germany celebrates on October 3rd, and the American holiday "German-American Day" which is observed annually on October 6. German-American Day celebrates German American heritage, commemorates the date in 1683 when thirteen German families from Krefeld in the Rhineland landed in Philadelphia. These families subsequently founded Germantown, Pennsylvania, the first German settlement in the original thirteen American colonies. Originally celebrated in the nineteenth century, German-American Day died out in World War I. The holiday was revived in 1983 when President Ronald Reagan proclaimed October 6 as German-American Day to celebrate and honor the 300th anniversary of German American immigration and culture to the United States. The first German Club opened its doors in Los Angeles 1859, just nine years after Los Angeles itself, with a population of 1,610, became a city in1850, and California had become the 31st US State the same year.
The German-American League of Los Angeles unites most local German Organizations under their umbrella and together the Clubs organize and coordinate their events, festivities, and charitable efforts.

Sara Mai, senior at Campbell County High School, was awarded a National Silver Medal from the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards for her sculpture, "Paper Kraken."
Mai's intricately formed, abstract sea creature made entirely of folded white paper caught the eye of the jurors and was honored with a Silver Medal.
Her piece will now be displayed in New York and travel to various galleries around the country for the next year, showcasing America's top high school artists.
After graduating from Campbell County High School in June, Mai plans to attend Northern Kentucky University where she will major in graphic design.
This fall and winter, students across the country submitted nearly 320,000 works of art and writing.
Of those entries, only 18,000 received regional awards and advanced to New York City for national adjudication. From there, the top 1 percent of entries was awarded a national medal. This marks the second year in a row that a County High School artist has earned a national medal in art from Scholastic.
