In South Africa people built an actual bar inside a hollowed out tree called Sunland Big Baobab. According to the pub's website, the venue is the widest documented baobab, carbon-dated to be around 6,000 years old.
The plentiful boughs outside of the little bar provide ample shade for an outdoor restaurant area, where scores of tables are set. The beautiful tree is claimed to be one of the world's oldest.
Visitors can expect all the regular accoutrements of a small pub, including a dart board which hangs on one of the tree's interior walls. The place even has its own cellar, with natural ventilation to keep the beer cool.
This bar in the trunk of a Baobab has punters travelling from miles around for a brew.
The huge tree is so wide it takes 40 adults with outstretched arms to encircle it and even though the tree trunk is hollow, it walls are up to two metres thick.

Shawn Michaels def. JBL (All or Nothing Match)
SEATTLE -- After months of fighting a moral battle within himself as JBL's employee, Shawn Michaels finally broke free from the grasp of the self-made millionaire. Playing the time-tested tune of Sweet Chin Music, HBK defeated his former boss to win their All or Nothing Match.
(WATCH: Post-match interview | PHOTOS)
Preserving ownership of his namesake and earning himself a "buyout" from JBL, The Showstopper is now no longer under contract to the Longhorn Loudmouth.
The economy has been hard on all of us in the WWE Universe, and HBK was no exception, which placed him in an unfortunate predicament regarding the well-being of himself and his family.
As always, the business connoisseur that JBL is, he stepped in to lend an unlikely helping hand to The Showstopper, fully aware that acquiring the services of a living legend such as Michaels would be quite beneficial in attempting to become World Champion once again.
Given his financial turmoil, HBK had no choice but to accept the offer from JBL with his family in mind, but he never knew that it would be so hard and that his sense of morality would be put to its limits.
Finally, just weeks ago on Raw, Layfield offered HBK the release from his contract, as well as a full payment of what is left owed on the contract, but in return, his name and likeness would be on the line for the self-proclaimed "wrestling god" to win in an All or Nothing Match.
Seemingly with no other choice, Michaels accepted the challenge and the chance to be free from the tyrannical reign of JBL as his employer, but when that fateful night came at No Way Out, it was anything but easy.
After listening to salacious comments made about his wife Rebecca, and JBL demanding The Showstopper to have her at ringside to watch his downfall, Mr. WrestleMania might have had just enough fuel and inspiration to overcome all odds once again.
HBK and JBL fought tooth and nail, with Michaels giving everything he had within him to ensure that he beat his boss. The Showstopper's livelihood was on the line, as well as a monetary sum that could help ensure his family's welfare.
When all the dust settled, HBK stood tall once again with Rebecca close by his side, keeping his name from exploitation and defeating the Longhorn Loudmouth with a pin in the center of the ring after connecting with Sweet Chin Music.
The only question left is, after this defeat and losing, perhaps for the first time ever, in a financial situation, will the self-made millionaire seek retribution by exacting revenge on HBK? Only time will tell, and you can find out what happens next, Monday on Raw at 9 p.m. ET.

Of Nature on Now Is the Time, Now on Saturday Night!
WRTI Your Classical and Jazz Source
Published November 2, 2013 at 10:16 AM EDT
It's the world and how we live in it on Now Is the Time, Saturday, November 2nd at 9 pm. Starting today, things go bump in the night as the schedule shifts on WRTI-HD2. The biggest move is for Now Is the Time, moving from its Sunday slot to one day and one hour earlier. We love the change! The show now broadcasts every Saturday at 9 pm.
William Wallace, the American composer born in 1923, has a tonal language that sometimes wears Baroque forms, but lightly. Underneath pulses a strong personality. His second Piano Concerto begins with, of all things, a fugue, and it works brilliantly. After the warm choral sound of A Cosmic Prayer by Carson Cooman, beautifully sung by The Choir of Royal Holloway, is Tomas Svoboda's Symphony No. 1 (of Nature). Written when he was only 16, it's forthright and assured, with echoes of his Czech heritage. It's a remarkable achievement.
If you're new to Now Is the Time and live anywhere in, well, the cosmos, just go to wrti.org and click on the Listen: Classical button at the top. Day or night, that brings you the classical stream, and at 9 pm every Saturday, you'll hear Now Is the Time. In the Philadelphia area with an HD radio? Dial us up at 90.1 FM, HD2, or find all the frequencies here, depending on where you live, from the Shore to the Poconos to Harrisburg to Dover. Thanks for supporting American contemporary music on WRTI!
What's that you say, you'd love to hear the theme music? Of course you would…just click here!

Kurant is pleased to present Krin, the latest and most ambitious work to date by the London-based Morley Hill. Morley Hill has exhibited widely both in Norway and the UK. The works are characterized by an idiosyncratic sacred geometry and an obsessive attention to detail and form. Described in Dazed and Confused magazine as work that 'pushes the boundaries of structure and freedom', Morley Hill is the architect of an obscure material democracy.
Nestled in Kurant's brutalist exhibition space and looming out of the darkness, Krin is a graveyard of wooden skeletal forms, mechanical monuments to the forgotten triumphs of Modernity. Hubble telescope meets towering garden shed, Krin is high-energy melancholy, a forgetting machine that spins the wheels of our childhood imaginations and sorrowful pasts.
The opening is on Friday the 28th of March at 20:00.
The bar is open and cash is queen!

Appeals Court Won't Step In on President Trump's Tax Returns For Now
By Alex Arger
The fight over the president's tax returns is expected to reach the Supreme Court for a second time.
A federal appeals court has rejected President Trump's attempt to delay a subpoena seeking his tax records.
The president requested a hold on Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr.'s subpoena while he pursued appeals to get it invalidated. But the appeals court said it wouldn't hold a hearing on on the president's legal motions until September.
The president is being investigated over alleged hush-money payments made to two women who claimed to have had affairs with the president years before he was elected. He calls the case "the most disgusting witch hunt in the history of our country."
But in court papers, New York prosecutors said their probe extends beyond hush money to allegations of "extensive and protracted criminal conduct" involving the Trump Organization real estate enterprise.
This comes a month after the Supreme Court rejected the President's claim of absolute immunity from state criminal subpoenas. And it's just days after a district judge dismissed the president's second attempt to block access to his tax returns.
The Supreme Court ruled 7-2 last month that President Trump isn't exempt from being subpoenaed in the New York investigation. Even if the records are obtained, it's unlikely they would be made public before the November election.
The case is expected to go back to the Supreme Court once again.
President Trump is the only modern president who has refused to release his tax records, even after promising to do so before his election.

* N70p 3L Gore-Tex® fabric with Gore® C-Knit™ backer technology.
Zeta AR Jacket - Mens is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 7.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kelebek from GORE® C-KNIT™ BRILLIANT technology This C-Knit Jacket is nothing less than brilliant. NO "wet out" issues what so ever -NOT even after hours in heavy rain. I am atletic build. And usually i don´t fit into Arcteryx Trim Fit. But this Zeta AR is a little bigger. Leaves even space for a mid layer or fleece. Zeta is not bulky at all, and super silent. Smart engineered hood for us without helmet. C-Knit backer technology is very comfortable against the skin. Does not give you the normal cold sticky goretex feeling against the skin, -when it rains.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Phlo from 6'3 (190cm) tall wearing Large - perfect fit I wear it nearly everyday since 3 months and highly recommend this jacket. So far the design and quality of materials are worth the price. The wind and rain protection is solid. - At around -3 C with strong winds I felt protected and warm on my bicycle or while hiking. I wore a T-shirt and a fleece (Delta AR) underneath the jacket. It breathes really well. - Cycling at warmer temperatures never made me feel like I'm overheating. Cleaning is very simple and revives the jacket all the time. Even tough stains! I had chain grease on my jacket from handling my bicycle. I got the grease off with mineral spirits and hand soap. After washing and drying the heavily treated spot on the jacket shows no trace of stains or discoloration and it is 100 % water-repellent. I haven't even used the DWR-Spray since my purchase in October.
Rated 5 out of 5 by MarkieB from Great for British weather. Not for the first time I bought an Arc jacket thinking that I'd wear it for home and work use - only to find myself wearing it on top of wet and windy English fells or Scottish hills. Its very waterproof, of course, and it is completely windproof. The fact that it is not made of Pro shell is no bad thing in a cold and relentless south west wind. I like keeping just a little warm moist air about me in those conditions - its a bit cosier! Ideally the hood would be the storm hood that I have on other Arc jackets - but then I'm unlikely to tuck my hood into the collar. For anyone who will be doing this a lightly less enveloping hood will be an acceptable compromise. In late winter and early spring I've found it works very well worn over a T-shirt, making it an excellent all day jacket. And I have worn it to work a few times - it looks great with quite formal clothing.
Rated 5 out of 5 by toomanybikes from The Best 3 Season shell out there Great cut you can wear with a t-shirt or fits over a moderate mid layer. I chose the AR over the LT for the pit zips and the torso adjustment. The zippers are so smooth. The c-knit mades the jacket light and comfortable. I'm 6' 2" 190 lbs and the size large is a great fit.
Rated 4 out of 5 by KDogs from The sweet spot. I originally overlooked the Zeta AR as I was so preoccupied with buying something, in fact anything that had Gore-Tex Pro written on the sleeve. I originally bought an Alpha FL and thought it was the perfect jacket until I realised that my body shape would not accommodate a Trim fit jacket without pit zips. I hold a decent amount of muscle mass on my chest and lats which leads to the material being pulled up under my armpits causing extreme annoyance. Looking back the lack of pockets was also a problem which the Zeta addresses perfectly. Somewhere to store your gloves is useful to me. The majority of jackets with zip pits are athletic fit and were just a little too heavy duty for my intended use. As a bit of a wild card the assistant in UK Flagship store in London handed me a Zeta AR and immediately showed me how good the C-Knit felt to the touch. The Zeta is very quiet, soft and was much more comfortable than any of the other jackets that I tried on in store. It has a fairly long tail which comes down over your glutes, however it doesn't feel restrictive in anyway. The cuffs are easy to adjust using the Velcro strips and the arm length suits the average. My only concern with this jacket is the design of the collar and hood. Being a one piece setup means that the collar sits well with the zip pulled right up, but if you undo the zip the collar does not lay well, you're forced to unzip further than you want to in order to get the collar to lay flat. With the zip fully up and the hood pulled over your head it feels great and does a great job of being comfortable and functional at the same time. I had my concerns with the hood only utilising one draw cord to cinch it down, however it works really well and is less hassle that playing with many tags to obtain the right fit. I bought the Zeta AR to be used when I knew the weather would be wet, however it's already turned into my go everywhere jacket, from walking the dog in an exposed countryside to strolling into the office in the City. Having order black it's become a universal layer than matches well with almost anything. I'd rate this as 4.5 stars (but you can't), so it's 4 stars as the collar and hood design is a little annoying, not a deal breaker though. I don't know how many hours I spent reading reviews and travelling to try out the Arc'teryx range, but I do know that I'm happy with my choice and will use it extensively.
Rated 5 out of 5 by KeithyD75 from Great all round jacket! Over the years I have owned a lot of Arc'teryx gear. I've owned a Beta AR and Alpha LT. I am now the proud owner of Zeta AR and I love it. Great fit and cut. Hood is amazing. Pockets are well positioned too. I'm 6" and around 185kg and a medium fits perfect. There's plenty room under for layering. I like the reflective logo on the jacket too.
Rated 3 out of 5 by PaulM from Not lasted as expected I have been generally happy with this jacket as it looks good and is functional. It hasn't had hard use but I find now it's water repellency is poor compared to any other brands I have had over the years. I hadn't expected to have to be washing and retreating it so frequently. I should say this review applies to the previous version though I have had it less than a year.


About 3 weeks ago my 25 man guild finally made the decision to downgrade to 10 man raids. It hurt. This guild *just* went from 10 man to 25 in ICC. For most of Cataclysm we have managed to keep ahead of the raiders leaving and replacing them. Unfortunately, OLN suffers from the fact that we are casual.
We don't require attendance. We don't require specs. We don't have DPS thresholds. We are here to have fun with all our friends, not to chase server firsts. The problem is, only about 2/3rds of our raiders are the kind of people who go and learn every bit of info on their class, min-max, and know every boss video before we ever walk in. the other 1/3rd are very nice people, but aren't pushing the envelope, can't be bothered to show up, and our realm sadly does not have a good pool to pull raiders from.
As all raiders are pretty aware, the days of really only needing 8 of 10 or 20 of 25 of the raiders on point are long gone. Even the smallest mistake can lead to a wipe. One person not notice and keep nuking Magmatron? Kiss the raid goodbye. Miss the jump, die in the water, and you were the interrupter on your Nef platform? Game over. Firelands is just as bad. Didn't see that trap? Too bad, the tank is already dead. Accidentally attacked the wrong foot? Even one person can lead it astray. Regardless of how you feel about this design (I hate it, just fyi), it has had an effect. Finding 10 competent and focused raiders is much easier than finding 25.
So we took our good, consistent, and still present raiders and put their names in a list. 16 raiders. Uh oh. There are only 10 spots. Lucky for our raiders our GM and Officers had no intention of just booting 6 people. However we don't have enough to form 2 10 mans. So the GM decided we would be rotating people around.
This first week of this was TERRIBLE. We had several people raid 5 days that week, and several people only raid 1 day. The natives were restless. I spoke in a message to my GM and was like "dude, you need a system." His response: "I KNOW! I just don't know HOW…" So I decided to apply my game designer brain to this problem.
Our raiders broke down to 3 tanks, 4 healers, and 9 dps. First thing I did was cut "normal" raid nights to Tuesday through Thursday. Previously these were our 25 man nights. So now they are our standard nights. Sunday and Monday, our "cleanup in 10s" nights, became "wipe learning" nights. Sunday and Monday teams are formed based on who is on, and which boss we are trying (so stacking the proper dps for those fights).
Generally the tank situation just worked out. And if all 3 did manage to show up on the same night, they would just discuss it between themselves and sit out. They handled themselves essentially, but we decided to set it up to "rotate" them around. So Tank A tanks Tuesday and Wednesday. Tank B tanks Wednesday and Thursday. Tank C tanks Thursday and Tuesday. But they can switch up as they want or need.
With healers, we were really lucky in that handle fairly well on their own as well. One of our heals even has a super tank offset, so he fills both roles. So that just worked out.
But 9 dps… That makes life tough. They were the hard part.
Split the DPS into 2 teams.
Team 2: Warlock, Pally, Rogue, Mage, and Hunter.
Then, have the teams switch off nights.
So Week 1: Tuesday is Team 1. Wednesday and Thursday are Team 2.
So Week 2: Tuesday is Team 2. Wednesday and Thursday are Team 1.
1. It stacks the dps to be most efficient in gear drops. With the exception of clothies, each ac is only represented once.
2. It stacks melee vs. ranged and aoe vs. single target. I also stacked the weaker dps with the stronger dps, and the more likely to die with the more likely to survive, so neither dps team is "better" in a sense. They are quite well balanced and hit the same numbers. The aoe vs single target damage makes gimmicks like Rageface still do-able. It balances classes with high burst with classes with slow ramp up.
3. People who run earlier in the week have a good chance of getting several easy bosses and loot. People who run later get 1 or 2 bosses, but have to wipe on progression, however this means they might get to be in the kill group.
4. Even if the week goes badly, raiders know it will only be 1 week before they see another loot drop.
5. Each dps is part of a paired set. So if one warlock is going to miss her night, the RL can just contact the other warlock and ask them to show up. Regardless, most of us are connected on RealID so any holes can be filled quickly.
6. The warlocks are the two toons working on the legendary. Since they are in different groups there is no poaching embers.
7. If you are on the team not running that night, just can just log on at raid time, and check to see if the team running needs any holes filled. If they form up, you can go do dailies, randoms, or even level alts.
It just worked for us. Now, 3 weeks in, we have downed 2 new bosses, in two weeks, and are making great strides on Aly. Everyone is learning all the fights. The dps teams are becoming teams and learning to work well with each other. We have even started making red team vs blue team jokes. Because there has still been a ton of overlap on tanks and heals, including alt runs on off nights, with both teams making up the alt run, we are still a community as opposed to cliques. None of the raiders have left, and most seem to like it as well. By taking Sunday and Monday off the schedule, we don't have to worry about people showing up those nights either, but generally we have 10-11 people on for those nights, then usually someone just offers to step out. 10 man's are a bit easier to do this with.
Now this doesn't perfectly fit with every guild. The team balancing just fell into place for us, but with a bit of thought, and even possibly scheduling which bosses are being done on Tuesday and then on Wed/Thurs to balance the number of bosses downed. It's a slightly odd way of doing it, that might work.

When I was not quite a teen, I remember wanting to know a little more about my family and my family history. When I was almost 8 and under, both sides of my family did many activities together. Typically, Halloween we would go to my Dad's Mom's house (I call her Grandma) and we'd eat and then all of my cousins, aunts, uncles, sister, and parents would go trick-or-treating. I also had cousins that I didn't grow up with; some I haven't even met in person yet! I have always wondered what it would have been like to have grown up around them.
My Grandmama (my Mama's Mama) and I were always close and talked often. I always enjoyed listening to her stories. Especially the stories about her family. I never thought to actually write those stories down before she passed away. We started going through her photos a couple years before she died, but never finished going through them and hearing the stories behind them. It was a bit hard since I lived in different states or areas after I was 19.
One day, I discovered Ancestry.com. I don't even remember if I saw it on T.V. or if I was simply looking up how to do a family tree on the internet. I had to have been 12, maybe 13 when I first found it. It was during the dial-up days, that is a memory I don't think I'll forget. I know I didn't do much. I honestly forgot that login information. At 14 years old or so, I began to ask my Grandmama more questions about our family members. I never wrote them down, though. I was about 20 years old when I decided to have Grandmama help me fill in a tree on Ancestry. I actually lost the account information and never could sign back in. (Still to this day I can't remember what email address I would have used!).
Alas, in 2010, I began my REAL family history research! I have had free subscriptions and paid for some off and on since then. I learned that taking a year or so off helps when you hit brick walls. My "main" tree is huge, however, being the newbie I was, I went "click happy" and relied off of others' tree information. I learned that is a big no-no because in order to get accurate family history, we need to have facts! So, recently, I made a new tree and have been working on making sure everyone lines up correctly.
I do a lot of my searches on FamilySearch.org. It's free!
My desire to learn my family's history, I have been able to connect with a few extended family members. We aren't all in the same area, but one day, I hope to meet them in person!


Under Texas law, family law courts hold that marital property is divided into two categories: community property or separate property. Primarily, all property and assets gained over the course of the marriage are considered community property, subject to equal division in the event of a divorce; this includes debts accrued by either party.
Certain property can be maintained as separate property of one of the spouses, if it was owned or acquired prior to marriage or acquired during marriage by gift, devise or descent.
It is possible to clarify potential community and separate property issues prior to the marriage in a premarital or prenuptial agreement. I have experience drafting and defending prenuptial agreements.
If you are considering filing for divorce, get the facts about property division. The laws relating to community and separate property are complex and require the experience and knowledge of a skilled attorney. At The Robinowitz Law Firm, P.C. , I have been protecting the rights of individuals in divorce property settlements for more than 20 years. I not only use extensive knowledge and my experience, but also rely on independent professionals to determine the fair value of assets, as well as how the future value will affect a fair division of property.
As an experienced family law attorney, I have seen difficult community and separate property issues be presented to the courts inconsistently. The presentation of these difficult issues requires intensive preparation. Make sure your lawyer knows how to protect your financial interests.
My law firm offers the sophistication and resources to represent clients involved in the most complex divorce and marital property matters. Contact my offices in Houston, Texas, to arrange a free consultation about your pending divorce and marital property issues.


Another useful Ethernet application with our new HMI´s is the multi-drop connection.
As you can see in the picture configuration, Multi-drop means have 2 mirror HMI´s where can be used and all the actions in one HMI, will be mirrored on the other one.
To do this, we need as always one master and one slave, or with the proper words, one Host and one Client.
If you are interested follow the tutorial.
You can download the full tutorial and some example on the following link.
It´s been a long time since we post the last communication example.
And this time, taking advantage for the new coming soon release of DVS (Unmanagged Ethernet Switches) and new DVP-SE (PLC with Ethernet Embeded), we decide to show everybody how to communicate one PLC and one HMI trought Ethernet.
To make it easy for everybody, even the ones without English skills.
We thought the best will be to show everybody using video tool.
By the way, We´re planning to put all communication links in one page to easy link to everybody.
Another communication example for our blog library.
The easy one, should be do it only one HMI and one PLC. But to do it more interesting we are going to set up a Modbus ASCII network of one HMI(master) with 3 PLC's(slaves).
To setup any system I always divide the problem in two basic parts, Hardware and Software.
Take a look to the pinout of all the devices to connect, in our case the PLC is easy, and for the HMI, take a look to the next image extracted from the instruction manual.
An old trick that I learn after a couple of communication challenges is write in a post it the communication protocol that you are going to use. Basically, because you will need it so many times, and is very easy to make mistakes!!
And finally, to show you how to configure the communication with the ScreenEditor and WPLSoft, I'll ask you to download the next file, where you can file the programming examples, and some video file with the exe extension, to follow all the process.

Q: Multiple startups on client We're seeing very strange Meteor behavior. After a simple event hook is executed (which gathers info from a form, executes an insert and updates a Session variable), the client seems to startup again, redrawing the entire page. In effect, Meteor.startup is being executed more than once, even though the browser window is not being refreshed (or anything like that). Even stranger is the fact that we've made extremely similar apps, but they don't display this behavior at all. We cannot detect any significant differences between the different projects.
We're using Meteor version 0.6.4.1 (in all cases), both autopublish and insecure have been removed.
Playlist.html:

{{> addSong}}
{{> playlist}}

<template name="addSong">
<form>
    <fieldset>
        <legend>Add a song to the playlist!</legend>

<input type="text" id="artist" />

<input type="text" id="title" />

<button type="submit" id="insertButton">Insert</button>

    </fieldset>
</form>
</template>

<template name="playlist">

Votes left: {{votes}}

    {{#each songs}}

    {{artist}} - {{title}} - {{score}}
    <button class="voteUp" mongo_id="{{_id}}">Vote up!</button>
    <button class="remove" mongo_id="{{_id}}">X</button>

    {{/each}}

</template>

lib/common.coffee
@Songs = new Meteor.Collection "songs"

Songs.allow
    insert: (userID) ->
            true
    update: (userID) ->
            true
    remove: (userID) ->
            true

client/client.coffee
Meteor.subscribe "songs"

Template.playlist.songs = ->
  Songs.find {},{sort:{"score":-1}}

Template.playlist.votes = -> Session.get("votes")

Template.addSong.events
  'click #insertButton': (event,template) ->
    artist = template.find("#artist").value
    title = template.find("#title").value
    Songs.insert({"artist":artist,"title":title,"score":1})
    votes = Session.get("votes")
    Session.set "votes", votes+3
    return

Template.playlist.events
    'click .voteUp': (event,template) ->
        id = event.target.attributes.mongo_id.value
        Songs.update({_id:id},{$inc:{"score":1}})
    'click .remove': (event,template) ->
        id = event.target.attributes.mongo_id.value
        Songs.remove({_id:id})

Meteor.startup ->
    alert "Starting"
    Session.setDefault "votes", 0

server/server.coffee
Meteor.publish "songs", -> Songs.find({})

To replicate the weird behavior, just submit items on the form, this triggers a startup every time (verified in Chrome as well as Safari).

A: If you have the code on github, I can help to look at it, but with just your description, it's hard to say what the problem would be...

A: OK. We've found out what the problem is. The <form> tag, in combination with a submit button caused the client to execute a HTTP POST, which cause the entire page to re-render.
It's a very subtle problem and quite hard to detect, but the lesson here is that you shouldn't use <form> tags unless you are absolutely certain. Some kind of mechanism/warning/documentation might be a good idea to prevent this from happening to other people.

It was the death of Auberon ('Bron') Waugh nearly three years ago that led his son Alexander to investigate the relationships between fathers and sons over five generations of his family. Alexander loved and admired his father, with whom he enjoyed an eccentric but far happier relationship than Bron did with Evelyn Waugh, or Evelyn with his father, Arthur, or indeed Arthur with his father, Alexander Waugh, ominously known as 'the Brute'. The result of these filial researches is a remarkable work of family history, exceptional for its honesty, intuitiveness, humour, and for the beguiling individuality of its author's voice.

Q: Terminal problem after updating python to 3.7 I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS and encountered an issue where after updating my Python from 3.6 to 3.7.5 my terminal keyboard shortcut stopped working and clicking on the terminal icon wouldn't get it to run.
I found a solution on StackExchange but I have no idea why it worked and I would love to understand why. You can find the link below and the solution was
This way the upgrade to 3.7 is useless. You should edit the gnome-terminal file:

Open a terminal and issue the following commands:

cd /usr/bin
sudo nano gnome-terminal
Change #!/usr/bin/python3 to #!/usr/bin/python3.6.

This way you can still use the power of 3.7 and solve the issue with the terminal.

Could anyone try to explain what happened when I did this and why it worked? Would love to know for when I need to upgrade it again! Thank you!
Source:
Terminal not opening up after upgrading python to 3.7

A: If you followed the upgrade path from the linked question, all you did is make the symlink /usr/bin/python3 point to python 3.7 instead of python 3.6.
The line you changed is called a "shebang" line. It tells the kernel which application to use to interpret the file.
Applications from Ubuntu repositories expect /usr/bin/python3 to be python 3.6 and may be incompatible with python 3.7.
So apparently, gnome-terminal is incompatible with 3.7 and if you change the shebang to explicitly point to 3.6 it works again.
You are not supposed to change the default python version, which is evident in the fact that it is not installed in debian alternatives by default. I'd recommend changing it back to 3.6 because there are probably a lot of other applications that won't work.
Instead of changing /usr/bin/python3, use /usr/bin/python3.7 on the command line or in shebang lines of your own python modules.

A: I had upgraded to python 3.10.9 from python 3.8 using deadsnakes repo
https://hackersandslackers.com/multiple-python-versions-ubuntu-20-04/
After a while Ubuntu system got restarted, I found out my terminal is messed up & could not open.
Then, I ran this command which basically regenerted locales. This will take a while to complete.
sudo locale-gen --purge

Then I tried opening gnome-terminal & I was able to open the terminal by using latest python version.
Hope this solution helps!


MURFREESBORO, Tennessee — Even though we don't have a big block of time for uninterrupted travel in the near future, we carved out a couple of weeks to continue adding to our list of "states we've 'boxed in." This journey will take us to America's heartland, as we try to visit and letterbox in eight midwestern states in 14 days. We are planning a relaxed pace and hope to catch a minor league hockey game or two along the way.
The highlight of our day today was an impulsive stop at the Chickamauga National Military Park in north Georgia near Chattanooga. In the fall of 1863, one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War was waged there over control of Chattanooga, a key rail center and the gateway to the heart of the Confederacy.
In just two days of desperate, often hand-to-hand, combat between 66,000 Confederate forces and 58,000 Union troops, both armies suffered 28% casualties (killed, wounded or missing). Only the Battle of Gettysburg, which lasted three days, resulted in greater casualties. Though the Confederates won the battle by capitalizing on a gap in the Federal lines, a month later Chattanooga was in the hands of the Union, whose ranks had swelled with 36,000 reinforcements.
In 1889, just 26 years after the battle, veterans from both sides met in a grand reunion at Chicamauga. The reunion barbecue, attended by more than 12,000, formally launched the effort to preserve and memorialize the Chickamauga battlefield. Their efforts contributed to the Congressional authorization of four national military parks to be established at Chickamauga/Chattanooga, Gettysburg, Shiloh, and Vicksburg.
Dedicated in 1895,the Chickamauga/Chattanooga was the first military park in the U.S. and served as the model for most military and historic parks to come. State governments were invited to fund, design, and construct monuments to their fallen citizens within the park. By 1910, more than 1,400 memorials had been erected throughout the park.
Monuments honoring the indomitable stand of Union General Thomas's 14th Corps often incorporate a depiction of an acorn. Thomas's troops repelled repeated Confederate assaults, earning them the reputation of standing like a stately oak in the fiercest storm. The acorn was later adopted as the symbol of the 14th.
Unlike other monuments, the Wilder Tower was a privately funded memorial, built through the efforts of the Indiana and Illinois veterans of the Union's Lightning Brigade, who fought under the leadership of Col. John T. Wilder. A native New Yorker, Wilder was operating a foundry in Indiana when war broke out. Thwarted by state quotas in his effort to launch an artillery company, he enlisted in an Indiana infantry regiment, where he was soon promoted to lieutenant colonel.
A bold and innovative leader, Wilder put his foot soldiers on horseback to increase their mobility and secured a bank loan to arm them with newly devised repeating rifles. Wilder had created a unit that could move with the speed of cavalry but fight with the power of infantry using weapons far superior to those of most Civil War soldiers on both sides. One of the first units involved in the Battle of Chickamauga and the last to leave the field, Wilder's company was recognized for its swiftness and endurance, revolutionizing military tactics and earning the nickname of the Lighting Brigade.
One of the soldiers mortally wounded in the battle was Confederate Brigadier General Benjamin Hardin Helm, the brother-in-law of President Abraham Lincoln. Helm had been leading his Kentuckians against the Union forces when a bullet pierced his side. He was carried to the rear and the wound was inspected by a surgeon. According to accounts of the event, the Confederate leader asked the doctor, "Is there any hope?" The surgeon replied, "My dear General, there is no hope!" Helm died that night at age 32.
When the war began, the West Point graduate was serving as an officer in the Kentucky militia. He refused Lincoln's offer of a commission as major in the United States Army and joined the Confederate army instead. When Lincoln learned that his favorite brother-in-law had been killed at Chickamauga, the President was said to be filled with grief.
When we checked in at the Hampton Inn at Murfreesboro, a very realistic looking stuffed animal was snoozing in a plush doggie bed at the front desk. The longer we looked at it, the more we began to believe that this little pug puppy might actually be alive. Its side was moving ever so slightly up and down as if it were breathing. But this adorable little guy is indeed a plush toy made by Perfect Petzzz. Conveniently, he sleeps all the time, his food costs are zero, and he never needs to be walked. Perfect pet, indeed.

Q: Force some pods to schedule on the same node I have a sandbox Kubernetes cluster, in which I shutdown all pods at night, so it can scale down with the cluster-autoscaler add-on.
The problem is, it almost always keep the master plus 2 nodes running.
Looking into cluster-autoscaler logs, I see the problem seems to be this:
Fast evaluation: node ip-172-16-38-51.ec2.internal cannot be removed: non-deamons set, non-mirrored, kube-system pod present: dns-controller-3586597043-531v5
Fast evaluation: node ip-172-16-49-207.ec2.internal cannot be removed: non-deamons set, non-mirrored, kube-system pod present: heapster-564189836-3h2ts
Fast evaluation: node ip-172-16-49-207.ec2.internal cannot be removed: non-deamons set, non-mirrored, kube-system pod present: kube-dns-1321724180-c0rjr
Fast evaluation: node ip-172-16-49-207.ec2.internal cannot be removed: non-deamons set, non-mirrored, kube-system pod present: kube-dns-autoscaler-265231812-dv17j
Fast evaluation: node ip-172-16-49-207.ec2.internal cannot be removed: non-deamons set, non-mirrored, kube-system pod present: kubernetes-dashboard-2396447444-6bwtq
Fast evaluation: node ip-172-16-49-207.ec2.internal cannot be removed: non-deamons set, non-mirrored, kube-system pod present: monitoring-influxdb-grafana-v4-50v9d
Fast evaluation: node ip-172-16-51-146.ec2.internal cannot be removed: non-deamons set, non-mirrored, kube-system pod present: cluster-autoscaler-776613730-kqgk2

and because those pods are spread, cluster-autoscaler ends up keeping 2 or more nodes up even when there is nothing running in the default namespace...
Is there a way of forcing or inducing Kubernetes to schedule all those pods together?
The idea is to make the cluster run at night with the master plus one node only. If there isn't, I was thinking on add a Scheduled Action to the AutoScale Group, so it would be forced to run all in the same node.

A: The solution could be to label a node, and then use the nodeSelector in the deployment to indicate that is has to run at that node. This is certainly not an advised solution since it will break once you scale to much.

A: An alternative to using nodeselector would be to use inter-pod affinity to ensure that your pods get packed better.
'Preferred' rather than 'Required' affinity can be used to ensure that Kubernetes will try and schedule your pods together on the same node, but if it cannot, they will schedule on different nodes.
From the documentation, it will let you specify rules like:

This pod should (or, in the case of
  anti-affinity, should not) run in an X if that X is already running
  one or more pods that meet rule Y. X is a topology domain like node, rack, cloud provider zone, cloud provider region, etc.

Implement a simple text copy/paste for within Ryzom, for the mac version.
Added by GelluleX over 7 years ago. Updated almost 7 years ago.
This is not yet implemented, but the stubs are already in the code. The idea is to just have the copy/paste string kept in a temporary member of the CCocoaEventEmitter class.
Actually version 2 of the patch is a bit better. It uses NSPasteboard to also be able to copy/paste in and out of Ryzom.
Try it with TextEdit, it worked for me.
Thank you for the patch submission. Anything I should know before I commit it?
Nothing special. I have found any issue with it. Tested it on the live Ryzom server without issue.

Ubisoft expands board of directors to combat Vivendi influence
Ubisoft is looking to shield itself from the growing influence of French media conglomerate, Vivendi, by filling out its board of directors with two new independent directors.
Chris Kerr
The proposed appointments of former Uber strategist Frédérique Dame and Wrigley CFO Florence Naviner will be subject to the approval of a shareholders' meeting on September 29.
If approved, the board would expand to 10 members, and with five independent directors Vivendi's ability to influence the Assassin's Creed creator would be somewhat diminished.
"We are delighted to continue the expansion of our board of directors with the appointment of Frederique and Florence as independent directors," said Ubisoft CEO, Yves Guillemot.
"They will bring Ubisoft valuable and complementary experience [and] are valuable assets to the board at a time where Ubisoft has set itself an ambitious roadmap."
The changes are unlikely to dissuade Vivendi from pursuing the studio. Vivendi recently accomplished a hostile takeover of former Ubisoft sister company Gameloft, and has continued to purchase Ubisoft shares as Vivendi's takeover threat continues to loom.

Pig the Fibber 1
by Aaron Blabey
Hardback Age range: 3 to 5 years old Publication Date: 01/05/2015
OFF RRP $17.99 $14.95
He's back!
But this time Pig, the world's greediest Pug, is telling great big lies. Won't he ever learn?
Follow Pig in Pig the Pug and Pig the Winner
Aaron Blabey's life doesn't make any sense.
He is most widely known for his well-loved, best-selling children's picture books for which he has won many awards including an INDIE Book Award for Children's Book of the Year, a Children's Book Council of Australia - Book of the Year Award, a NSW Premiers Literary Award for Children's Literature, two Australian Book Design Awards, two KOALA Awards, two YABBA Awards and a Children's Peace Literature Award.
He is the creator of two series for children - The Bad Guys and Pig the Pug - that have been translated into many languages and are published in over 25 countries including the USA, the UK, Canada, France, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, India, Turkey, China, Japan, South Korea and Brazil, just to name a few. He's also been the National Literacy Ambassador and is a proud supporter for the Alannah and Madeline Foundation.
But dig a little deeper and his past gets quite shady.
He spent 13 years as an actor appearing in numerous plays, TV shows and films. He was regularly cast opposite proper actors like Hugh Jackman, Jacki Weaver, Guy Pearce, Bryan Brown, Joel Edgerton and Ben Mendelsohn, all of whom were too kind to ever point out that his own acting was "just…awful", as he describes it today. To his continuing bewilderment though, he did once win an ACCTA Award (AFI) for Best Actor, a fact that cannot be adequately explained.
To complicate matters, he worked for a time as a staff writer at a major global advertising agency where he "learned a great deal and wished for death every single day", before spending a couple of years attempting to teach 'Creative Thinking' at a prominent Sydney design college. Furthermore, he's exhibited his art in various galleries, spent some time as a grape picker, worked in a video store and - astonishingly - once modeled clothes in a glossy weekend supplement.
He lives these days in a beautiful town in the Blue Mountains with his preposterously short wife and their two gorgeous boys, where he creates books, listens to his beloved vinyl record collection through killer 70s speakers and celebrates loudly every fifteen minutes that one of his all-time, top-ten heroes - Nick Cave - recently chose to record one of his books.
All of this is true.

Pig is back. Hooray! The cruel, selfish pug first seen in "Pig the Pug" is again causing poor Trevor havoc as he lies to get out of every wrong doing.
Equally as brilliant, funny and clever as the original it is sure to delight and entertain, as with everything Aaron Blabey turns his hand to.
Perfect for ages 3+.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Search::Elasticsearch::Compat::Util qw(filter_keywords);

    my $filtered = filter_keywords($unfiltered)

=head1 SUBROUTINES

=head2 filter_keywords()

This tidies up a string to be used as a query string in (eg)
L<Search::Elasticsearch::Compat/"search()"> so that user input won't cause a search query
to return an error.

It is not flexible at all, and may or may not be useful to you.

Have a look at L<Search::Elasticsearch::Compat::QueryParser> which gives you much more control
over your query strings.

The current implementation does the following:

=over

=item * Removes any character which isn't a letter, a number, a space or
  C<-+'"*@._>.

=item * Removes C<and>, C<or> and C<not>

=item * Removes any C<-> that doesn't have a space in front of it ( "foo -bar")
      is acceptable as it means C<'foo' but not with 'bar'>

=item * Removes any space after a C<+> or C<->

=item * Removes any C<+> or C<-> which is not followed by a letter, number
      or a double quote

=item * Removes any C<*> that doesn't have at least 3 letters before it, ie
      we only allow wildcard searches on words with at least 3 characters

=item * Closes any open double quotes

=item * Removes leading and trailing whitespace

=back

YMMV

Pastor reaches out to share Jesus
For almost 20 years, Pastor Richard Sheffield has served as the pastor of Riceboro Church of God. He said he enjoys leading the small congregation.
Before he came to Riceboro, Sheffield, who was born in Miami and raised in Dublin, Ga., met the late Rev. Willie Anderson. A longtime member of Riceboro Church of God, Anderson invited Sheffield to come and serve as the pastor.
Sheffield has been in the ministry since 1975 and has served as a pastor since 1980. "I served 11 years as a pastor in Texas," he said. He took over at Riceboro Church of God in 1991.
Sheffield also has been serving as the pastor at Evening Light Church of God in Sandersville since 1991. Riceboro Church of God has services on the first and third Sundays at noon and Sunday school at 10:30 a.m. Bible study is at 7 p.m. on Wednesdays. Evening Light has worship services on the fourth Sunday of each month.
"For 2011, we are believing God for 50 additional people. We want to raise up disciples to be learners at the feet of Jesus and who will also become disciple makers," Sheffield said.
He said the Church of God congregation is full of love and has the ability to give. "Church members have a big heart. They give a lot and I believe they love me, too," he said. The church is about 70 years old.
"We still have a family problem and the church is the only institution to address family problems. When you become part of the church, you become part of what God is doing and there is victory in the end. I enjoy serving the people," Sheffield said.
As part of its evangelism and mission outreach efforts, Riceboro Church of God has a food bank. "We are fulfilling the sayings of Matthew 28:19-20 and Matthew 25. We minister in giving a glass of water in Jesus' name," the pastor said.
On Jan. 15, the church celebrated its 13th annual food bank rally with a program. The Rev. Harry Lloyd of Midway was the guest speaker.
"We provide a place for the GANG (God's Anointed New Generation), which consists of a group of young people, to come and have their practices. I believe because we have allowed them to come in for their rehearsals, we have found favor in the eyesight of God," Sheffield said.
He said Dr. Horace Germany, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X have had a profound impact on him. "Dr. King's teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ are real. He was about love and non-violence. I respected Malcolm X's doctrine and teaching, although I don't fully agree with them," he said.
"When I got saved in 1975, I met Dr. Germany at camp meeting. He invited me to come to Kendleton, Texas, to attend a Bible college. Dr. Germany could have been a multi-millionaire, but started a Bible college instead," Sheffield said. "I also played basketball to help pay for my education while I was in Bible college."
Sheffield has a bachelor's degree in Christian education.
His advice to other pastors is to stay focused. "We are victorious by faith. Sometimes we focus on success and failure. Don't pay too much attention to success and failure. Reign with Jesus right now," he said.
Sheffield and his wife Monica live in Dublin. She is a teacher with the Dublin school system. They have four children and four grandchildren. Sheffield is a past president of the NAACP and has served on the Dublin School Board for 12 years. He currently serves as the chairman of the board of education.
"I enjoy carpentry work and am a carpenter by trade. I like woodwork and promised myself to make a dollhouse. Doing things with wood has always been tranquil," he said.

Good Grief, Charlie Brown! Secular fundamentalism goes after Linus at Christmas
by 1389 on December 25, 2015
in 1389 (blog admin), censorship, Christmas, education
On YouTube: Linus' Christmas speech
Ammoland.com has the story:
by Dr. Mark Hendrickson
Grove City, PA – -(Ammoland.com)- You may have heard about the Kentucky school district that ordered its administrators to scrub any religious references from its various Christmas productions.
Most infamously, an elementary school in the Johnson County School District removed the lines from "A Charlie Brown Christmas" where Linus recites the Gospel of Luke's account of the Nativity of Jesus Christ.
This censorship was colossally silly—both because Linus' speech is the dramatic center of the play, and because of the self-evident absurdity of staging a play with "Christmas" in its title and then deleting the key lines that explain what Christmas celebrates.
According to reports, the district's attorneys had received a complaint about the planned production and, apparently fearing a lawsuit, they advised administrators to remove all "religious" (i.e., Christian) references from the Christmas-related productions being planned in their schools. According to the district's website, "The U.S. Supreme Court and the 6th Circuit are very clear that public school staff may not endorse any religion when acting in their official capacities and during school activities."
Hello! Staging a play about Christmas doesn't "endorse" the Christian religion, any more than staging "Big River" (the musical version of the Huckleberry Finn story) constitutes an endorsement of slavery or a production of "Sweeney Todd" endorses cannibalism.
It is ridiculous to send the kids home for what is called "Christmas vacation" while suppressing any mention on school property of what Christmas means.
It is absurd to treat any reference to the Nativity of Christ as an unmentionable, as if it were an obscenity (especially when there are public schools in America where the doctrines of Islam and the principles of Sharia law are taught).
The venerable "wall of separation between church and state" was originally intended to keep government from bestowing legal privileges or financial favors on one religious sect over others. Now it has morphed into a reductio ad absurdum whereby no mention (or at least, a respectful or reverential mention) of our country's dominant religious traditions is to be made in a taxpayer-funded venue.
Such a tortured reading of the Constitution is music to the ears of contentious atheists and secular fundamentalists. It represents the temporary triumph of an arid, intellectually feeble legal theory over common sense and tolerance. It renders an honest teaching of world and U.S. history impossible, and greatly limits what literature, art, and music may be incorporated into educational curricula.
I mean, how do you teach the history of our own culture and civilization without discussing the Christianization of Europe, the Christian/Muslim wars, the Protestant Reformation, the Christian principles and values that animated the American revolution and later the civil rights movement, and even why science flourished in the Christian West while stagnating everywhere else?
Some may not like it, but the fact is that the birth of Jesus two millennia ago marked the beginning of the pivotal life in human history. Just because many of us also believe that the life of Jesus Christ is the key to heaven is no reason for public officials to attempt to censor history or ban that momentous life from our schools.
Let me close by wishing the people of Johnson County, Kentucky—including the secularists, attorneys, and school officials who tried to censor Linus Van Pelt and the Gospel of Luke—a happy, healthy, and blessed Christmas.
Following is the Scriptural passage that they excised from Charles Schulz' "A Charlie Brown Christmas." May it touch your heart with the wonder of Christmas:
"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them,
Fear not; for, behold, I bring you tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace and goodwill towards men." (Luke 2:8-14, King James Version)
Amen. And Merry Christmas!

 Maturity Date

Maturity Date

Close

A bond's maturity date refers to a specific date in the future on which the investor's principal will be repaid. Maturities can range from as little as one day to as long as 30 years. The length of a bond's maturity often correlates to the bond's risk factor. A bond that matures in one year will typically be less risky than one that matures in 20 years since there will be less price fluctuation in shorter maturities.

Bonds are often referred to as being short-, medium- or long-term. Generally, a bond that matures in one to three years is referred to as a short-term bond, while medium-term bonds are generally those that mature in four to 10 years. Long-term bonds are typically those that mature in more than 10 years.

Once the bond's maturity is reached, the final interest payment and the original principal are paid to the investor.

    z-index: 2;
    position: absolute;
    width: 35%;
