tizens waited upon me and escorted me to the vestry used as a town hall, where I was given a public reception. I do not know what the feelings of General Grant were when he landed at California and was given the grand reception after his trip around the world, but if he felt better than I did he must have been very happy. I remained at home six days, and at the expiration of my leave reported back to the camp. I was as pleased to meet the dear old boys as I had been to meet friends at home. How I love to linger, living over in memory those happy days. I could fill pages with reminiscences of that winter; the horse show February 22, the grand inauguration of Lieutenant Shackley when he received his commission, the blackberry jam at the sutler's tent, the courts-martial in the Sibley tent on the hill, and last but not least, the grand joke which was enjoyed by all; but it would be of interest only to the comrades of the old 19th and I will pass on to the stern realities of war.

Door Slams Shut on Timeshare Resale Scam by FTC
At the Federal Trade Commission's request, a federal district court has issued a temporary restraining order against a Florida-based telemarketing scheme that allegedly tricked timeshare owners who sought to sell their timeshare properties. VACATION PROPERTY SERVICES, INC.; VACATION PROPERTY SELLERS, INC. d/b/a Timeshare Experts; HIGHER LEVEL MARKETING, INC. d/b/a Vacation Property Services; ALBERT M. WILSON; DAVID S. TAYLOR and FRANK M. PERRY, JR.,
According to the FTC's complaint, since at least 2006, Vacation Property Services, Inc., two related companies, and their three principals have made tens of thousands of unsolicited telemarketing calls to timeshare owners claiming that they could quickly find buyers for the owners' timeshares. The defendants allegedly trick consumers into paying large up-front fees, typically using one of two deceptive sales pitches – that they have buyers lined up and waiting to buy the timeshare properties or that they will find a buyer for the timeshare properties within a short period of time. Regardless of the pitch used, the defendants demand that consumers pay an up-front fee, ranging from $200 to more than $8,000.
The FTC alleged that after making the hefty up-front payment, consumers ultimately learned the defendants had no buyers lined up to purchase their timeshare properties and no such buyers were in the offing. And, when consumers realized they had been duped, the defendants routinely dodged consumers' phone calls and denied their refund requests.
The FTC's complaint charges the defendants with violating the FTC Act and the Telemarketing Sales Rule by misrepresenting their refund policies and the existence of potential buyers. The complaint also charges the defendants with calling hundreds of thousands of consumers between November 2009 and November 2010 whose phone numbers are on the FTC's Do Not Call Registry.
The FTC is seeking to permanently stop the defendants' allegedly illegal conduct and to provide money back to consumers who were harmed by their violations of the FTC Act and Telemarketing Sales Rule.
The FTC would like to thank the following organizations for their help in bringing this case: The U.S. Postal Inspection Service, Tampa, Florida, Division; The Office of the Attorney General, Florida; the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, the Better Business Bureau of West Florida; and the St. Petersburg, Florida, Police Department.
The Allegations in the Complaint Filed
Since at least 2006, and continuing thereafter, Defendants have engaged in a plan, program, or campaign to deceptively advertise, market, promote, offer for sale, or sell timeshare resale services through interstate telephone calls to consumers throughout the United States.
Defendants, directly and through their agents and telemarketers, contact consumers through unsolicited telemarketing calls. Many of these consumers registered their phone numbers with the National Do Not Call Registry prior to being called by Defendants.
Defendants target consumers who own timeshare properties. Many of Defendants' victims are elderly consumers and/or immigrants who speak English as a second language. Defendants also deceive many other segments of the population.
When contacting a consumer, Defendants often already have information about the consumer's timeshare property, such as the property's location, the amount of "points" the consumer has banked, and the amount of maintenance fees the consumer must pay to the property management.
In many cases, Defendants' telemarketers represent to the consumer, expressly or by implication, that they have a buyer for the consumer's timeshare property, and that the sale can be closed within a specified period of time, often within a matter of weeks. The telemarketer typically tells the consumer the price the purported buyer is willing to pay for the timeshare property, and often congratulates the consumer for his or her good fortune.
In other cases, Defendants' telemarketers represent to consumers, expressly or by implication, that their timeshares are sought-after properties. These telemarketers typically assure consumers that numerous potential buyers have already contacted Defendants to express interest in the consumer's timeshare resort property. Accordingly, Defendants' telemarketers frequently promise that these consumers' timeshares will sell within a short period of time – often days or weeks.
After representing that Defendants will quickly arrange for the sale of the consumer's timeshare, the telemarketer frequently tells the consumer that he or she must pay Defendants a fee in order for the sale to proceed and close. Defendants often represent that this payment will cover various sale-related costs, such as title searches or document processing.
If the consumer asks whether Defendants can deduct the fee from the proceeds that will be owed to the consumer at the time of the sale, the telemarketer responds negatively. The telemarketers provide various explanations for their answer, including that such payment arrangements are illegal, against company policy, or may result in the loss of the telemarketer's license.
When a consumer expresses doubt about the truthfulness of Defendants' offer, Defendants' telemarketers often respond with representations about the legitimacy of Defendants' service – such as telling the consumer that Defendants' industry is heavily regulated by the FTC and, therefore, Defendants must be "on the up and up."
Defendants' telemarketers have also assured skeptical consumers that Defendants' fee will be refunded if the sale does not close as promised.
In many instances in which Defendants claim to have already located a buyer for the consumer's timeshare, the telemarketer provides the consumer with details about the purported buyer, such as the buyer's name and/or nationality. Defendants' telemarketers frequently tell consumers that the purported buyer is foreign.
The telemarketers often provide consumers with a timeline for the purported sale of their timeshare, including the date on which the sale should close and the date on which the consumer should anticipate receiving a check with the closing proceeds. They frequently tell consumers that a check with the proceeds from the sale will arrive via FedEx and instruct the consumers to be at home, with proper ID, on the day the settlement check arrives in order to receive the check.
The amount of Defendants' up-front fee varies widely, ranging from $200 to more than $8,000. Defendants frequently offer to reduce the fee if the consumer expresses displeasure with the size of the fee.
Believing – as they were promised – that Defendants have a buyer for their timeshare property and/or will have it sold within a short period, and that Defendants' fee must be paid up-front in order to assure that the sale will go forward, many consumers agree to pay Defendants' fee.
After securing credit card payment information or payment by check or other means, the telemarketer often tells the consumer that he or she will receive a follow-up call to confirm the payment information. The telemarketer typically states that the follow-up call will be from Defendants' "legal department" or "verification department."
In some cases, Defendants' telemarketers tell consumers that the person making the follow-up phone call will not know about the purported pending sale and thus will pose questions to the consumer that are not relevant to the sale.
Defendants' telemarketers often tell consumers that, in order to move forward with the sale, they must agree to all the statements made by the person making the follow-up call.
The person making the follow-up call typically tells the consumer that he or she is calling from Defendants' "legal department" or "verification department," and proceeds to quickly run through a series of questions and statements.
Defendants' verifier (the caller on the follow-up call) confirms the consumer's personal and payment information, as well as details about the consumer's timeshare property. In many cases, the verifier also quickly informs the consumer of Defendants' seven-day rescission period and states that Defendants will advertise the timeshare property until sold, while stating that Defendants cannot guarantee how long it will take to sell the property, or the price at which it will sell.
If the consumer states that he or she does not understand what the verifier has said, or suggests that the verifier has made statements that differ from the promises made by the telemarketer concerning the supposedly imminent sale of the consumer's timeshare, the verifier typically transfers the consumer back to the telemarketer.
In many cases, the telemarketer then tells or reminds the consumer that he or she must agree to the verifier's statements in order to ensure that the sale will go forward, reassuring the consumer that – since the sale of his or her property is imminent – the verifier's statements do not apply to the consumer's situation.
In some instances, when questioned about the verifier's statements regarding advertising the timeshare, the telemarketer tells the consumer that Defendants previously advertised his or her resort. As there is already a buyer for the consumer's property, the telemarketer explains, Defendants will now move his or her account from "advertising" to "financing" to reflect the pending sale.
In other cases, the telemarketer reassures the consumer that the discussion of advertising services must be included in the terms of service for legal reasons, due to laws governing timeshare sales.
After providing reassurances and explanations, the telemarketer often transfers the consumer back to the verifier, who again quickly runs through the list of verification questions and statements.
Defendants maintain that these "verification" calls are recorded. In numerous cases, Defendants utilize purported transcripts from these calls when responding to refund and chargeback requests or consumer complaints filed with state agencies or Better Business Bureaus ("BBBs"). Defendants do not claim to record the actual sales calls, which are typically much longer and more detailed than the verification calls.
In many cases, after completing the verification process, Defendants place a brief description of the consumer's timeshare on one of the websites maintained by Defendants, such as alllandsales.com, timeshareexperts.com, besttimesharesales.com, sellingtimeshare.com, soldmytimeshare.com, vacationsbuyowner.com or rentingtimeshare.com. The brief descriptions typically include basic details about the consumer's timeshare, such as location, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, usage terms, maintenance fees and asking price.
Within 10 to 14 days of payment, most consumers receive a confirmation document. The confirmation document typically includes various details concerning the sales process and/or the consumer's timeshare property. The confirmation document also includes a section entitled "Terms of Advertising Agreement," which typically states:
Vacation Property Services is a For-Sale-By-Owner advertising company that is not a real estate broker. This advertising program involves pooling advertising resources with those of other advertisers to maximize exposure to potential buyers or renters.
Vacation Property Services forwards all offers about my timeshare directly to me and allows me to negotiate the sale of my property without the involvement of any broker, and without any commission.
Vacation Property Services assumes that my timeshare sells, rents or exchanges within a SIX-month period unless I advise Vacation Property Services to the contrary, prior to the expiration date of six months. Upon notification Vacation Property Services will renew my advertisement at company expense.
Our refund policy states this is a one time fee with a 7 day right of rescission from the date your advertisement is listed. After the 7 days it is only refundable if your property is sold or rented any other way within 10% of the original price upon proof of sale or rental.
Pursuant to [Florida Statute] 721.20(9)(a), the ratio of the number of timeshare interests listings for sale versus the number of timeshare interests sold by Vacation Property Services is zero for each of the previous two calendar years. Because Vacation Property Services is a For Sale By Owner timeshare advertising company, it does not obtain, track, or keep records of sales from its timeshare property advertisements.
Upon reviewing the confirmation document, many consumers immediately attempt to contact Defendants to obtain a refund, recognizing that the "advertising" terms in the document do not match the telemarketer's promise of a quick sale.
Other consumers do not react to the confirmation document, either because: (1) Defendants' telemarketer promises the consumer that his or her property is not subject to the typical advertisement agreement because a buyer has already been identified and the timeshare property will soon be sold; (2) the consumer reviewed the confirmation document during the initial sales call and was promised by the telemarketer that, notwithstanding the fact that the terms of service discuss advertising, the fee paid by the consumer to Defendants will be used to pay fees and expenses necessary for consummation of the promised sale; (3) the telemarketer told the consumer during the sales call that the property would be advertised, while also promising a quick sale – often within days or weeks; or (4) the consumer managed to speak with the telemarketer, who assured the consumer that the terms discussed in the confirmation document have no impact on the imminent sale of the consumer's timeshare.
Consumers frequently receive the confirmation document more than seven days after paying Defendants' fee. If consumers become suspicious after carefully reviewing the terms contained in the confirmation document, any refund request made by a consumer as a result of such suspicion will be filed more than seven days after the consumer has paid Defendants' fee. Indeed, Defendants often deny refund requests as untimely.
After Defendants receive their up-front fee from a consumer, they typically ignore his or her inquiries. When the consumer attempts to contact Defendants by email, Defendants often ignore the emails or provide boilerplate responses unrelated to the consumer's request or inquiry. When the consumer calls their offices, Defendants' employees frequently tell the consumer that the telemarketer in charge of his or her transaction is unavailable. Defendants' employees repeatedly tell consumers seeking post- payment assistance that the telemarketer in charge of their transaction is "out of the office," "sick," "in the field," "in a meeting," etc. Likewise, Defendants rarely respond to consumers' post-payment voicemails and messages.
Defendants also stymie any attempt to obtain refunds, including attempts made well within Defendants' seven-day cancellation period, by, among other stalling tactics: (1) refusing to permit cancellation via email, phone call or fax; (2) refusing to provide consumers with a written address for cancellation letters; (3) refusing to acknowledge receipt of cancellation letters; and/or (4) refusing to respond to calls and emails, as discussed above.
When a consumer succeeds in contacting the relevant telemarketer within Defendants' cancellation period, the telemarketer often attempts to convince the consumer to forgo the refund request by assuring him or her that the promised sale of the timeshare will proceed as planned.
The promised date for the sale of the timeshare property, or the date by which Defendants promised to locate a buyer, typically passes without any contact from Defendants and without a sale of the timeshare property or identification of a real buyer.
When consumers realize they have been deceived, they often seek refunds directly from Defendants and/or initiate chargebacks with their credit cards companies.
Consumers have also logged hundreds of complaints against Defendants with law enforcement agencies and BBBs.
When credit card companies contact Defendants regarding a chargeback request, or BBBs contact them regarding consumer complaints, Defendants typically deny that they made any promises regarding locating buyers or the time that it would take to sell the consumer's timeshare property.
Defendants typically respond to refund requests initiated through consumers' credit card companies or BBBs by stating that Defendants' fee is non-refundable after seven days and claiming that their service is limited to posting an online advertisement for the consumer's timeshare property, "just like a newspaper."
Defendants typically produce a copy of their confirmation document to the credit card company or the BBB, citing the terms of service as proof of the consumer's agreement to pay for Defendants' services. Defendants often present the document as proof that the consumer was on notice regarding their seven-day rescission policy.
In many cases, Defendants provide, or offer to provide, the credit card company or the BBB a purported transcript of the brief verification call. Frequently, Defendants produce a template of a verification call script, instead of the actual transcript.
In many instances, Defendants rely upon the confirmation document and the purported verification transcript (or the template of a verification script) to defeat consumer chargeback challenges.
Consumers' attempts to obtain refunds directly from Defendants are similarly futile. Even when the consumer repeatedly contacts Defendants to cancel the transaction within seven days of payment, Defendants often fight or ignore the consumer's request, a contravention of Defendants' own "terms of service."
Prior Enforcement
In July 2007, HLM entered into an assurance of voluntary compliance ("AVC") with the Office of the Attorney General of Florida ("Florida AG") to settle allegations that it made false promises to consumers, including promises that HLM "had a buyer or renter already identified for the [consumer's] timeshare." HLM agreed that it would not engage in various unlawful practices, such as making calls to consumers listed on the National Do Not Call Registry and making false and misleading promises to consumers when pitching HLM's timeshare resale services. HLM agreed to pay $7,500 to the Florida Department of Legal Affairs Revolving Trust Fund and refunded $10,223.50 to consumers. Defendant Perry signed the AVC on behalf of HLM.
In March 2008, VPS entered into a similar AVC with the Florida AG to settle allegations that it made false promises to consumers, including promises that VPS "had a buyer or renter already identified for the [consumer's] timeshare." VPS promised that it would not call consumers listed on the National Do Not Call Registry or make false or misleading statements about its timeshare resale services. VPS agreed to pay $15,000 to the Florida Department of Legal Affairs Revolving Trust Fund and refunded $12,266.50 to consumers. VPS further agreed to escrow $10,000 for any unidentified refund requests made prior to the effective date of the AVC. Defendant Wilson signed the AVC on behalf of VPS, and also in his personal capacity. – Source

What If New Zealand Maori Colonised England?
Few things get my blood curdling but one was a media announcement in New Zealand yesterday when an individual by the name of Don Brash introduced a lobby group of 'like-minded individuals' vowing to vanquish radial separatism of the New Zealand political landscape (i.e. suppress the uppity indigenous people).
[Pic: Maori woman warrior wielding 'patu' from the film 'The Dead Lands']
To be honest, I was a bit surprised they gave this racially-prejudiced lunatic any media time. A previous Reserve Bank Governor and past leader of New Zealand's 'National Party', he ran a campaign back in 2004 based on pretty racist, anti-Maori sentiment. His claim at the time, was that the indigenous people of New Zealand (the New Zealand societal group who are the worst represented in terms of education, income, health and crime statistics – in fact every feckin quality of life statistic you can measure) were apparently being more favorably treated than whites and received special privileges that white people didn't.
[I should probably mention here that my kids are Maori (and Irish, of course) and have a very strong sense of both cultures].
Unexpectedly, at the time, that appealed to large mass of the New Zealand population who'd been conned (by the National Party and a pretty inept New Zealand media) into believing Maori were going to 'own' all the beaches in the country and block white New Zealanders from using them. Fortunately, sanity prevailed, Brash lost the election and over time the dodgy tactics he was using came to light (as did a better media understanding of the genuinely poor state of Maori in New Zealand). Since then, Brash has become something of a figure of amusement/contempt although he still has enough friends in the political and media establishment to get a hearing when he has some money to throw around.
Seeing Brash on screen, peddling his well-heeled prejudice like some kind of high-end, soft porn, was genuinely infuriating and brought back a lot of memories of 2004/2005. Back then, I was so furious at the injustice of it all I wrote a short story called 'Morris Dancing' which imagines a scenario where Great Britain is visited by Maori explorers and missionaries and subsequently colonised. Most of the story reflects key aspects (and events) of New Zealand's colonisation by the English Crown but by putting the boot on the other foot, I was able to play around and have a lot of fun with the concept. Much of the narrative in the story incorporates material from Don Brash's speech notes of 2004, much of which is recognisable to New Zealanders.
The story was originally published in the short story collection Leannán Sidhe – The Irish Muse but I've put a free version of it here (see below) if you're interested. I don't think it's one of my best stories by any means, but it was a way of dealing with the anger. To my surprise, when it was released it received quite a lot of positive commentary and a lot of Kiwis seemed genuinely intrigued (and amused) by the idea. It turns out that sometimes, we can better more effectively see our own faults and prejudices through a contorted mirror image.
If you're interested, you can download a copy (PDF) of the story here at morris-dancing.

My first post, go easy. I have a couple of arduino UNO boards and looking for something to monitor the chemical levels in my pool.
I want to do it using least amount of power, ie low power mode and I am having a pretty hard time finding probes or sensors.
I want to have a floating gadget in the pool; on its bottom-side would be multiple electrode/probes that measure different chemical levels. So the probes I am looking for would have to last a looooong time submerged in later, and live through hot and cold days through and through.
I imagine many pool owners here would be interested in having this gadget?
Ideas on sourcing these sensors? Anyone interested in a similar project would be great!
I don't think there are "probes" to measure all of those things.
You can also measure pH, which has some complications and requires calibration.
reaction ( such as silver with chloride ions ), which is difficult to do with a "probe".
I've got a pool, but honestly, some of those measurements are likely to involve sensors costing thousands of dollars.
A quick search reveals a number of web sites that supply sensors such as Cynanuric Acid sensors. Rather alarmingly, I haven't found a price quoted. I'm reminded of the quote: "if you have to ask how much it is, you can't afford it" which is code for "it's very expensive".
Spooky, I just became the owner of a pool and was thinking along the same lines.
A way to detect the water level - maybe the anchor being permanently on the bottom could have a REALLY accurate depth sensor or maybe a couple of magnets attached to the side of the pool and the floating lab can work out the level using a magnetic sensor?
Chlorine level - these sensors appear to be expensive, so probably too hard?
A way to detect the force of water coming out of the main pump outlet (to tell you the skimmer is blocked, the sand filter needs a backwash or the pump has issues) - the floating lab could be anchored next to the outlet and there could be a paddle that is moved by the water?
I am keen to get something happening here, thoughts?
...and I am having a pretty hard time finding probes or sensors.
That is natures warning sign that they don't exist at prices that adverage people can afford.
So the solution might be a PH robot that takes a water sample every hour and post it over wifi?

NBA Betting Preview: Los Angeles Clippers at Philadelphia 76ers Predictions & Picks
November 1, 2018 by Jared Johnson
The 4-3 Los Angeles Clippers and 4-4 Philadelphia 76ers have both been very inconsistent this season. Both squads will both look to start building consistency as they meet for a contest in Philadelphia today (7 p.m. ET Thursday).
The inconsistency was expected from the Clippers, a deep team with no real star power. For the Sixers, though, their start has been a bit disappointing. They have a bunch of young, promising players who have not performed up to their potential so far.
Will the Clippers upset the Sixers with one of their patented offensive explosions? Or will Philadelphia find its groove? We'll break down the contest's storylines and betting lines and give our Los Angeles Clippers at Philadelphia 76ers predictions.
Can Philadelphia Have a Second Starter Help Out Joel Embiid on Offense?
Philadelphia surprisingly ranks just 22nd in the NBA in offensive efficiency this year after ranking 12th a year ago. If anything, you would expect improvement from the 76ers since many of their big-minute players are on the upswing of their careers.
However, none of the starters outside of the superstar Embiid have really come through. Robert Covington has shot decently well, but Ben Simmons, Dario Saric and Markelle Fultz have been very unimpressive from an efficiency standpoint. None of them have gotten any sort of an outside shot going so far this season.
J.J. Redick has been a nice shot of offense from the bench, but Philly still needs more help in the starting lineup. One or more of Covington, Simmons, Saric or Fultz needs to step up with an efficient 20 to 25 points in this contest to help Embiid carry the load.
Will the Clippers Keep the 76ers Off the Free-Throw Line?
The Clippers are a smaller team in the frontcourt and often resort to fouling players when they enter the paint and look like they might get a good shot opportunity. Opponents are averaging 29.3 free-throw attempts against them, which is the third-highest mark in the league.
Unfortunately for Los Angeles, Sixers center Joel Embiid is an expert at drawing fouls. His combination of prodigious size, skill and quickness have him averaging 8.4 free-throw attempts per game. For his career, he has averaged 9.4 free-throw attempts per 36 minutes.
Other players for the Sixers, like Ben Simmons and Dario Saric, can also get to the line frequently. Do the Clippers have the sufficient rim protection to deter the Sixers' paint attackers without fouling?
Will Los Angeles' Lack of Backcourt Size Be a Factor?
The Clippers' biggest strength on their roster is probably their backcourt defense. Patrick Beverley and Avery Bradley are both hounding on-ball defenders who enjoy pressuring ball-handlers as they bring the ball up the floor.
The only problem? Beverley is 6'1" and Bradley is 6'2". They will likely be guarding Markelle Fultz (6'4") and Ben Simmons (6'10"), who do much of the ball-handling for the Sixers' starting group. Ball pressure is great, but it matters less when the offensive player is much bigger and can use their strength and size to get easier shots and look over their defenders to find nice passes.
Los Angeles may need to switch up its rotation a bit so the Sixers' guards, especially Simmons, don't always have such small players guarding them.
Our Preview's Los Angeles Clippers vs. Philadelphia 76ers Betting Picks & Predictions
Philadelphia is better than its record indicates. The Sixers' four losses have, coincidentally, come against the East's top four teams in the standings right now (Milwaukee Bucks, Toronto Raptors, Boston Celtics and Detroit Pistons). Los Angeles isn't at that level, and Philadelphia should be able to get back to where it should be with this home contest.
I also see the Sixers' size advantage as a pretty decisive one in this matchup. So our preview's Los Angeles Clippers at Philadelphia 76ers predictions, in a bid to beat the USA offshore betting firms, look like this:
Philadelphia is not as big of a favorite in this game as the team should be. The best move is betting on the 76ers -5pts @ -110 with Bookmaker or Intertops.
I think the Sixers' size advantage will lead them to pound the ball inside more than just sprint up and down the floor. The pace of this game could be slower than expected. Bet the under 230pts @ -110 with Intertops.

Leading up to the mid-1970's, there were two prominent conventions in southern California. The Southern California Convention that was started in 1952. And the Palm Springs Round Up, that was started in 1960.
Both of these events were very popular and well attended. The convention agendas included breakfast, lunch and banquet dinners with great speakers, plus entertainment and sporting events.
The combination of enthusiasm created by these events and the fact that AA was growing very fast during the1970's, caused some AA's in San Diego to think about and work toward starting their own event.
After a couple years of coordinating and planning meetings, the San Diego Spring Round Up (SDSRU) kicked off in 1978. And, from its very first year, this event has been a positive influence on those in attendance and has generated enough revenue to cover expenses, maintain a prudent reserve and make 7th Tradition contributions to various AA service entities.
At this writing, forty years later, it seems fair to say that the SDSRU has achieved it's purpose, as stated in the excerpt of the original Policies shown below:
PURPOSE: TO CARRY THE MESSAGE
It is an established fact that those who attend and take an active part in Alcoholics Anonymous Round Ups, such as this one, have a more positive attitude in their solution of the problem of alcoholism and are aided in acquiring the knowledge needed to arrest this devastating disease. In the true spirit of Alcoholics Anonymous, we, the first San Diego Round Up Committee, do hereby establish the following guidelines. In addition, we will henceforth be governed by the Twelve Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous.

How many moles of glucose does 1.2 x 1024 molecules represent?
1 mole of any substance has 6.02 x 1023 molecules. For getting thenumber of moles we can divide 1.2 x 1024/6.02 x 1023 and we receive 2 moles.
1. Convert 3.01 x 1023 molecules of C2H6 to moles.
2. How many moles of water does 6.02 x 1023 molecules represent?

It is labeled as the deepest, most luxurious massage on the planet, given with the therapist's feet! If you are looking for a full body deep pressure and deep tissue massage to work out aches and pains, this is definitely for you.
In Japanese, Ashi Atsu literally translates to "foot pressure" and that pretty much sums up this technique. Using fixed bars on the ceiling, the therapist expertly applies Ashiatsu to the tight and stressed areas of the body. Rest assured, my feet are clean and soft. After a few minutes on the table, you won't even know it's feet that are working on you, and you'll be amazed at how good it feels.
I focus mostly on the back, neck and shoulders but still pay attention to the hips, legs, arms and upper chest with this modality and you will be astonished that it is all happening with feet.
I can apply therapeutic techniques for those chronic pains or Swedish techniques for a more relaxing experience, and in some rare instances, both feet hop on board for an added bonus you won't believe.
This modality has roots in the Philippines and India and was fine tuned here in Denver at the modality's training center.

Edwiga z Wessexu, též Eadgifu (; 902/903, Wessex – po 955), byla západofranská královna, druhá manželka krále Karla III.

Život
Edwiga byla dcerou anglického krále Eduarda I. a jeho druhé manželky Ælfflæd. 10. února 919 se provdala za západofranského krále Karla III., jehož první manželka Frederuna zemřela poté, co ji Karel vyhnal po narození šesti dcer.

Karlovi porodila následníka trůnu Ludvíka. Karel byl ale v bojích o moc v roce 923 sesazen a uvězněn, Edwiga proto uprchla i se synem k příbuzným do Anglie, kde Ludvíka vychovávala. Po Ludvíkově nástupu na trůn v roce 936 se vrátila do Západofranské říše a stala se abatyší v klášteře v Laonu. Roku 951 klášter opustila a provdala se za Herberta III., hraběte z Vermandois. Manželství bylo bezdětné. Zemřela po roce 955.

Community infections surge on Sunday, more returnees from DRC, South Africa test positive for coronavirus
Health Minister Dr. Jane Ruth Aceng (PHOTO/File)
KAMPALA — 12 new COVID-19 cases confirmed on Sunday July 05 — extending cumulative total infections of Ugandans 939.
The cases include 3 returnees South Africa (1) and DRC (2). This means, 16 of the returnees have so far tested positive for COVID-19.
The ministry of health also identified 7 coronavirus community cases from Amuru.
Two Ugandan truck drivers from Malaba and Mutukula also tested positive
Additionally, 11 foreign truck drivers tested positive for COVID-19 at the border points of entry and their entry into the country was not permitted, the ministry has indicated.
Todate, active cases on admission have reached 197 (167 Ugandans,25 foreigners and 5 refugees) while total recoveries are now at 891 including both Ugandans and non nationals.
The government has on Friday July 3 suspended the return of Ugandans who are stranded abroad, Ministry of Foreign Affairs has said.
Foreign Affairs Ministry in a statement on Friday indicated the country will not handle any new returnees after July 4, 2020, after the quarantine facilities got congested.
At the start of the return process of Ugandans and residents, the ministry of health had planned to have a total of 300 Ugandans return every two weeks.
However, in a space of one week, more than 300 people have returned and filled up the quarantine centres.
All returnees will have to undergo mandatory institutional quarantine for two weeks.
Those that have already returned are from South Africa, Turkey, India, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Italy and the United Arab Emirates. Tomorrow Ugandans in New Dehli, India are expected to return.

The retirement is just two weeks after the county commission and Mayor's office became aware of a $208,520 fine by the IRS.
Madison County Finance Department Director Mike Nichols has announced he will retire on June 30.
Nichols made the announcement at Tuesday's Madison County Commission meeting.
"I've got this new grandbaby coming along, I'm going to be 65, and after a lot of prayer and consultation with my family I'm going to retire," Nichols said. "A lot of good friends suggested that I retire, but it was my decision."
Nichols' decision to retire comes just two weeks after the County Commission and Mayor's Office became aware of a $208,520 fine by the IRS for the late filing of county employees' 2015 W-2 forms.
The finance department is responsible for filing all 860 county employees' W-2 forms with the Internal Revenue Service.
"I think all of the recent issues has brought it to this point," Madison County Commission Chairman Gary Deaton said. "Mike is doing what he thinks is the responsible thing to do, based on the things that have taken place in the last couple of years."
The county was originally fined on July 31, 2017. While in charge of the finance department, Nichols appealed the fine but the appeal was rejected. The county is in the process of appealing the fine again, and has hired accounting firm ATA for help.
There is no timetable on when the appeal will be heard because the IRS isn't open due to the partial government shutdown.
Madison County Mayor Jimmy Harris said the retirement was a mutual decision reached by Nichols and the Mayor's Office.
The County Commission was not informed of Nichols' decision to retire before Tuesday's meeting.
Internal documents given to The Jackson Sun showed that an employee in Nichols' department took responsibility for not filing the W-2 forms on time.
"I always like to give the employee the benefit of the doubt," Commissioner Jeff Wall (District 9) said. "However, in a case such as this, I hold the finance director responsible for directing his department and managing the employees under him."
Nichols is the first and only person to hold the title of Madison County Finance Director. He's worked for the department for 14 years. Nichols previously served as a county commissioner.
"It's very regretful," Deaton said. "I'm a good friend of Mike's — but sometimes, when you're a good friend, working in a political environment, sometimes that gets in the way."
No decision has been made on who will replace Nichols.

The National Conference Center is one of the largest training and development facilities in the nation, and it's celebrating the opening day of baseball by announcing its Spring Training Package. Offering a unique bundling of services, the National is the expert at providing the perfect meeting place for experiential learning, meetings and teambuilding.
"With Spring finally here, it's time to refresh and rejuvenate with new ideas and goals for companies and associations. We work with each of our clients to advise and meet their goals with each meeting held at our facility," says Juan Garcia, Executive Director of Sales.
Depending on the size and flavor of your meeting, The National offers unique, individualized meeting space with conference rooms, outdoor space and rooms with natural light. With 265,000 sq. ft. of meeting and event space, offering 250 purpose-built conference rooms, breakout rooms and general session rooms, we offer flexibility in a big way. Recently, The National has created small, intimate meeting space. The outdoor courtyard with Pergola and fire pits are used almost daily, along with a modern Living Room space and a "speakeasy" room aptly named The National Secret. The finished room is down a hallway around the corner from the active Black Olive Bar & Grill with no other entrance.
The National's food and beverage program continues to grow and evolve under the direction of Todd Goldian, Executive Chef. We focus on local farm-to-table cuisine incorporating over 60 local products to the daily menus that serve as many as 1,200 guests per day. The newest partnership is with a local farmer, CEA Farms, who has been farming in Loudoun County since 1797. Farmer Virts provides all the tomatoes, lettuces and specialty greens for our guess. For day meetings and events that take place in the adjacent West Belmont Place, guests enjoy the same food quality for a banquet or luncheon as guests in the Dining Room and Black Olive.
Experiential learning has been touted as an exceptional method in creating memorable learning experiences with high recall. The Challenge Course includes action-based learning components such as the high ropes course and other elements designed for problem solving and leadership development. The new course features nine unique elements strategically placed within the 65-acre campus and each element provides multiple challenges.
For more information or to book a Spring Training Package at The National Conference Center, contact the sales office at sales@conferencecenter.com.
Virts, a Loudoun County farmer is supplying the National with his hydroponically-grown produce and Loudoun-raised beef. He's also a bit of a pioneer, advocating that the best way for Loudoun to grow big business is to stay true to its roots – a philosophy shared by the National. So much so that the conference center buys all that it can from local vendors, from office supplies to wedding favors to tomatoes.
Donnie Virts is an unlikely symbol of progress for the National. In the past few years, they've taken a deeper look at who they are, what they are good at, and where they fit into the community. This navel-gazing has uncovered brilliant truths: The National is as relevant as ever, and the good things happening here have built an irreversible momentum.
A wave of energy has brought a local farmer into the fold as a valued partner at the largest hospitality facility, in the largest industry in Loudoun, a county where shining bright has become a bit of an art form.
The National is first and foremost a venue of learning. But with some heavy-hitting industry awards under its belt, it's clear that training workshops aren't all that's being done right here. Hotel of the Year, General Manager of the Year, Tourism Branding, and even wine education are among the accolades – and the stuff of dreams for heavy hitter hotels.
The catalyst for the National's success is a combination of factors, all with an underlying theme of community. Local efforts established the now-thriving Project SEARCH school-to-work program, hosting ten local students each session. And sparked a relationship with EatLoCo to test the wares of local farmers and food artisans, where Donnie Virts met Chef Todd Goldian.
Giving back wasn't a strategy but it had massive ROI, as the National gained recognition for doing what they do -but doing it differently. And that started the wheels moving, and momentum building.
Sitting on the first page of 2018's calendar, the National's year ahead looks like a target, with the visitor's experience as its bullseye. Those coming for work, for events, for fun can all expect something special, and likely, something they didn't imagine.
"Seeing is believing," says GM, Geoff Lawson.

Who knew that Marshall McLuhan was such a nut? "The Medium," a dance-theater work conceived and directed by Anne Bogart puts McLuhan through her particular way of combining dance and words and the outcome was silly and brilliant at the same time. First performed in 1993, "The Medium" was revived at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's BAM Fisher where five members of the experimental SITI Company were put through their manic paces attempting to explicate the McLuhan's "medium is the message" philosophy in a series of pointed, surreal skits. Bogart updated the media references to include all the electronic/internet variations. [more]
Lackawanna Blues
Employing his majestic vocal and physical talents, Santiago-Hudson supremely differentiates each of his brief characterizations with specificity and pathos. There's also a poignant dynamic as he plays himself as a child and now at his current age. Santiago-Hudson's staging is equally as assured as visually and aurally and the production is impeccable. Blues guitarist Junior Mack is onstage dramatically matching the spoken words with his skillful performing of Bill Sims Jr.'s intense original music. [more]
As proven elsewhere, Steven Levenson is expert at depicting young people in crisis on stage. "Days of Rage" is very real in its handling of a group of people of similar beliefs living together who have forces that are driving them apart, and as such it is engrossing and intriguing. However, the play's theme seems to be rather opaque or at least vague in its depiction of college-age radicals at the height of the Vietnam War. While some of the characters are thinly drawn, most problematic is that the catalyst to all the action is a character that we want least to hear from. [more]
Mlima's Tale
Structured like Arthur Schnitzler's wicked "La Ronde," "Mlima" begins with a harrowing hunting scene. Mlima, the giant elephant, is portrayed with dignity and astonishing physical vitality by Sahr Ngaujah ("Fela!," "Master Harold…and the boys"), in traditional African garb (character-perfect costumes by Jennifer Moeller) and colorful stripes of makeup. His opening moments involve an internal dialogue describing his dire situation chased by hunters. He speaks of his tight family connections and his regrets just before he is slaughtered. [more]
20th Century Blues
There is nothing much very wrong with Susan Miller's '20th Century Blues" that a few more revelations or dustups wouldn't solve. Beth Dixon, Franchelle Stewart Dorn, Polly Draper, Kathryn Grody and Ellen Parker play believable, recognizable women at a plateau in their lives when some taking stock is in order as they approach the age of being considered senior citizens. A pleasant evening in this form, but Miller's play gives an aftertaste that will leave you hungry for more. It seems that in order not to offend, she is playing it too safe. [more]
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Gynecologic Oncology Unit at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center of New York City
Ms. Feiffer's rudimentary characters communicate by the sledgehammer approach to comedy. Until the mawkish finale there is a barrage of zingers, one-liners and vulgarisms. If a theatrical awards body had a category that honored the most abundant use of the word "fuck," this play would be a major contender for such an honor. [more]
The best role in the story is that of sociopath, deranged Annie Wilkes. Metcalf runs the gamut of emotions from bliss to murderous rage and back and turns on a dime. Unlike Willis, she uses her face to show all of her moods both pleased and black. Always interesting to watch, her Annie is revealed as crazier the longer the story goes on. The scenes in which she has to get Paul back into bed suggest that her Annie not only contains tremendous emotional extremes but also enormous strength from years running her farm. Playing the role less childless-like than Kathy Bates did in the movie, she makes Annie Wilkes all her own. As the third member of the cast in the minor role of the sheriff, Brown is completely convincing but he hasn't been given much to do in his few brief scenes. [more]

Leadership lessons turn up in the darnedest places, don't they?
You don't have to be reading the Harvard Business Review every week to find some good, common-sense business insight. In fact, you might start looking for leadership tips from the things your kids—from toddlers to teens—are watching on television.
For example, Mister Rogers Neighborhood or The Walking Dead.
That's right, you can pick up some leadership tips from the nice man in a cardigan sweater or from a man dodging zombies in a post-apocalyptic world. My perspective on these pop-culture characters was transformed by reading posts on IncourageLeading.com, a blog by executive coach and organizational strategist Jone Bosworth. She's one of those people who finds insightful and relatable lessons in unlikely places.
Mr. Rogers, of Mister Roger's Neighborhood, didn't win the Nobel Prize but he was given the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom—and he has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Jone gleaned 15 lessons in leadership from the late children's television host in her post, Leadership Guidance from the World's Nicest Grown-Up. The list is practically an MBA in management, not to mention life in general.
If we could all keep that gem of advice front and center when dealing with people, I think our customers, our employees and co-workers, our family and friends—yes, even ourselves—would all feel more content and fulfilled.
Okay, maybe your kids—or you—have outgrown Mr. Rogers. You say the world is a much tougher place, and you want leadership or management examples geared to our current dark challenges? In a future post, I'll share what we can learn about leadership from the television show, The Walking Dead. Yes, zombies have been known to bring out the best—and worst—leadership skills in us all!
What cultural icon, media star or TV show do you get leadership ideas from? Donald Trump in The Celebrity Apprentice? Miranda Bailey in Grey's Anatomy? Captain Kirk in Star Trek? So many to learn from, so little time. Use the comment box below to tell me who your leadership mentor is!


The existence of effect modifiers or confounding factors requires measuring an effect in subgroups (strata) of the study population. We perform a stratified analysis. The effect modifier or confounding factor can have two or several categories. Each of them is a stratum in the stratified analysis. We measure the effect between exposure and outcome in each of the various levels taken by the effect modifier or the confounding factor.
Measure the effect (RR or OR) of the exposure of interest on the outcome in our study. Compute the confidence limits of this effect.
Those variables are identified from the crude analysis of the data or identified a priori from literature review. They include the other identified risk factors (variables which are associated with outcome) and variables which can be sub-divided in several sub groups of public health interest (age, gender, etc.). When the effect modifier or confounding factor is not binary (Yes-No) we create as many strata as there are categories of exposure in that variable.
Measure the effect of the exposure on outcome within each of the strata (RR2 to RR4 above).
If the effect differs between strata, we then suggest that effect modification is present. This should be supported by a test for homogeneity between strata and a reflection on the biological plausibility of the varying effect among strata. Since effect varies among strata we need to present the results by stratum. An overall effect (crude effect) is less informative since not illustrating the information given by the effect measured in each stratum.
Compare the crude measure of effect to a weighted measure (e.g. Mantel-Haenszel).
If the crude and weighted measures differ by more than 15-20%, the crude measure of effect may have been confounded. The weighted measure of effect is therefore more appropriate than the crude measure of effect. The crude measure of effect can be compared to the range of value taken by the stratum specific effects: if it lies outside the range of stratum-specific values, then confounding is likely.
6. Are effect modification and confounding present?
If both effect modification and confounding are present, the interpretation of a measured effect is complicated (a variable can be both a confounding factor and an effect modifier). In that event a multivariable analysis taking into account confounding and interaction is needed .

Una Healy heads out in LA with Aoife Belle in another chic Mamas and Papas buggy.
The mum-of-one first stepped out in March with a Mamas and Papas Mylo. Una was bang on trend with her all-black colourway choice, favoured by Stacey Solomon and Chantelle Houghton.
Yesterday, Una switched to a rather summery Urbo Sandcastle pushchair, going all LA on us in a tiny pair of shorts.
The hot mama tweeted that her and daughter Aoife Belle had arrived safe and sound, describing Aoife as an angel on her first transatlantic flight.
Una, who's in LA to film a reality TV show with The Saturdays, has left hubby Ben Foden behind.
Una tweeted, "We're missing you already", with (as ever!) an adorable picture of Ben and Aoife. But it seems Una couldn't have even entertained the idea of leaving Aoife behind, labeling her the band's "mini Sat". Well, The Saturdays' show wouldn't be complete without her, would it?

Q: Keycloak configuration for spring boot in application.properties I have given all the roles,permissions,resources and policies in key cloak console.But why do I have to give roles and resources again in application.properties.If i don't give those in application.properties,all the resources are accessible.So,what actually do i have to mention in application.properties.
evaluation in keycloak
application.properties
permissions for resources

A: The error is because you have used a lower version of spring boot.You must have spring boot 2.0 or above for integrating with keycloak.

Q: How to enable svn merge to consider externals for changes? Suppose a checkout from an svn-automatically copied svn:externals file, ie
/granddad/folderExternaled/myComputedFile.txt. This checkout is from an old branch, so its externals are not the same as in the trunk. Then I merge from trunk to branch.
The result is, in SVN 1.6.* ;

*

*/granddad/folderExternaled/ has its externals not changed, but its mergenfo is.

*/granddad/folderExternaled/myComputedFile.txt has its mergeinfo changed, so it registers as a CONFLICT.

The result is, in TortoiseSVN 1.7.4.22459, only item 1; Item 2 is correctly unchanged with no conflicts.
I wish, in TortoiseSVN preferably but in SVN if not, that I could have a "checkbox"/option to ignore or consider the externals folders, which are apparently they are partly ignored (no functional change accepted) and partly considered (mergeinfo is updated).
Update:
I might not have been clear on my question.
I'd like to figure out a workaround and I wasn't sure if anything was available. Maybe nothing is since I got no replies. Or maybe I wasn't clear enough. It's the last paragraph, just above this that states the problem.

A: Externals should never have considered modifications because it is not a good practice to change them, even if they are part of repositories that you can modify, and also even if interests to the user to know which modifications will be applied with the merge. This is why the behavior of version 1.7 makes more sense: only the property entries from the repository should be monitored by SVN, not inserting mergeinfo in Externals folders.
If you really need to check these modifications, I recommend you to Checkout the two versions from your Externals and compare them overwriting manually the oldest files with the newest files.

Hale and Hearty Words
10 Things I'll Never Live Down- Number Three
**I originally posted this last year, but it's that time again and this story is definitely one I'll never live down.*
It's football season and in my family, that means it's a matter of time before someone brings up a reference to another thing I'll never live down.
I married into a family of football fans.
I'd never been much of a football fan myself, mostly because I didn't understand the rules.
I had no idea what a down was, what "3rd and 10" meant, or why on earth sometimes a team scored 6 points and other times it was 2 or 3.
And I really, really didn't understand why an idiot player would take the ball and run straight into the onslaught of giants in front of him.
None of it made sense to me.
But then I married into a family of super-fans, and my hubby started with Football 101, allowing me to ask questions until I finally gleaned enough of an understanding of the game that I could really become a fan.
My father-in-law holds season tickets to his favorite college team, so when he invited me to tag along with him and my husband to a game, I was really excited. I wanted to see this game up close; to really enjoy the atmosphere of it.
I'd been to one or two college games before, but at the time, I was more of a fan of the band and cheerleaders than I was the actual players, so this would be the first game when I could really appreciate the game and be part of the atmosphere.
We settled into our seats. I cheered with the rest of the crowd when the boys took the field. I sang the fight song and yelled like crazy at kickoff. I watched with intensity, and asked my husband and father-in-law questions for clarification as the game went on. They were kind enough to oblige my ignorance so that I could better understand the game.
But then came THE question.
The next play was coming up and I didn't really know how they judged the distance to the next down. So, I leaned over to my husband and asked–
"Where's the yellow line?"
"Huh?" Hubby responded.
"The yellow line on the field–where is it?"
Taking in my serious face, my hubby held in his chuckles long enough to elbow his dad and have me repeat the question. Then they both burst into uncontrollable laughter and shared my question with the fans around us.
I had no idea why they were laughing.
"Jen, the yellow line is computer-generated on the screen for the viewers at home."
My face flamed and my father-in-law (who has always loved to crack jokes about me being a blonde) laughed until I thought he was going to faint.
And I gave him plenty of ammunition. Serious, serious blonde moment.
To this day, I haven't lived it down. Every football season a male in my husband's family makes a crack about the yellow line on the field.
I've been to plenty of games since and have been able to impress my hubby, his brothers, and my father-in-law with my growing knowledge of the game. I'll never forget the time I called a player offsides from the stands, shocking the males in the family so much that their eyes bugged out.
So, yeah, I've learned a lot about the game. I can now be considered a true fan.
But as for the yellow line, I'll never live it down.
ROLL TIDE!!

It's football season. And in my family, that means it's a matter of time before someone brings up a reference to another thing I'll never live down.
I'd been to one or two college games before, but at the time, I was more of a fan of the band and cheerleaders than I was the actual players.
So this would be the first game when I could really appreciate the game and be part of the atmosphere.
We settled into out seats. I cheered with the rest of the crowd when the boys took the field. I sang the fight song and yelled like crazy at kickoff. I watched with intensity, and asked my husband and father-in-law questions for clarification as the game went on. They were kind enough to oblige my ignorance so that I could better understand the game.

A hopeless romantic in a Thomas the Train world…
As the lone female in my house (even the dog is a boy), I often feel outnumbered, so it's by the grace of God that I can use writing to help me connect with other hopeless romantics. These passionate, "heart-y" words stem from my deep love for Jesus, my husband and our four boys, my calling to write His story, to teach, and my deep, abiding love for music and chocolate. Always chocolate. Find out more on my "About" page.

The person who has not traveled widely thinks his or her mother is the best cook.
The person who is tired will find time to sleep. A person with a bad name is already half hanged.
The person with burnt fingers asks for tongs.
The persuasion of the fortunate sways the doubtful.
The pig prefers mud to clean water.
The pike grows big on small fry.
The pine stays green in winter, wisdom in hardship.
The pine wishes herself a shrub when the axe is at her root.
The pitcher doth not go so often to the well, but it comes home broken at last.
The pitcher goes so long to the well that it breaks at last.
The pitcher goes so often to the well that it is broken at last.
The pitcher goes so often to the well, that it gets broken at last.
The pitcher goes so often to the well, that it leaves its handle or its mouth.
The pitcher that goes often to the fountain leaves there either its handle or its spout.
The pitcher that goes often to the well leaves either its handle or its spout there.
The pitcher that goes too often to the well is broken at last.
The place honors not the man; it is the man who honors the place.
The plan executed, reason comes to our assistance!
The plant often removed cannot thrive.
The pleasure of what we enjoy is lost by coveting more.
The pleasures of love are enhanced by injuries.
The pleasures of the mighty are the tears of the poor.
The pleasures we enjoy are lost by coveting more.
The plough goes not well if the ploughman hold it not.
The plumber's house always leaks.
The point in question is yet undecided.
The point of the thorn is small, but hw who has felt it does not forget it.
The poor is hated by his neighbour, but the rich hath many friends.
The poor man eats at double cost.
The poor man has his crop destroyed by hail every year.
The poor man pays for all.
The poor man seeks for food, the rich man for appetite.
The poor man seeks only a crumb, then finds he still hungers.
The poor man wants much, the miser everything.
The poor man's corm always grows thin.
The poor man's shilling is but a penny.
The poor must dance as the rich pipe.
The poor-houses are filled with the honestest people.
The pope and a peasant know more than the pope together.
The pope eats peasants, gulps gentlemen, and voids monks.
The position in which we were before the war.
The post of honor is the post of danger.
The postern door makes thief and whore.
The pot boils best on your own hearth.
The pot that boils too much loses its flavour.

Q: Angular 4 is not rendering my ID in my child component I have 3 components, they are nested.
But the ID on the last child is not rendering using id = {{myId}}.
I tried [id]=myID as well.
Something like this:

GrandFather:
<app-middle-section #middleSection
                    myTitle="Title"
                    myID="my_id_creation" >
</app-middle-section>

Father:

{{myTitle}}

    <app-list #glist
                myID= {{myID}}
    </app-list>

Child

EDIT:
If I use console log on the last component it prints my "my_id_creation".
For the Father and Child I'm using the:
@Input() myID: string;

A: Are you getting an error? In any case, your father and child components need to define those id's as input, something along the lines of this:
@Component({
    selector: 'father-component',
    template: `

{{myTitle}}

            <app-list #glist
                [id]="id"
            </app-list>

    `
})
export class FatherComponent {
    @Input() id: number;
}

Q: CSS for 'Slick' Carousel jQuery plugin not affecting my DOM, despite being loaded I am using this jQuery plugin https://github.com/kenwheeler/slick, and the JS is working, but the DOM is not reflecting the CSS. The CSS, however, is loaded, because when I go into the dev tools and view the Sources, the file is there. When I inspect the elements, the classes are there, and the classes are also in the CSS, they're just not affecting the appearance of the HTML. Any idea what might be causing this?
The CSS (slick.css) is saved in vendor/stylesheets and required in application.css using *= require slick.
There are also fonts included in the plugin, and I'm not sure that I've included these correctly, but I'm not sure that it would make a difference.
Any idea why this is happening?
Mine looks like this:

Instead of this:

The sizing/colors/spacing is not translating from the CSS to the DOM, and I'm not sure why. Thanks in advance for any insight!

A: I suspect this has been resolved by now, but if anyone else has this issue.  My guess is they're including the style.css in the css directory which I suspect is for the documentation.  The CSS file that you want to include is in the slick directory and called slick.css
