What the Fireflies Knew
Kai Harris' debut novel is a stirring story of a transformative summer for a Black girl growing up in 1990s Michigan.
What the Fireflies Knew drops us directly into the mind of 10-year-old Kenyatta, known as KB, who has discovered her father's dead body in the garage of their home on a "dead-end street" in Detroit. Soon after, KB's mother leaves her and her older sister, Nia, at their grandfather's house on a "green and noiseless" street in Lansing, Michigan. Their mother offers no explanation of where she is going or when she will be back.
KB tries hard to relate to Nia and understand why she is so angry and distant. KB also attempts to parse her family's secrets—where her mother is and why she left, why people whisper about her daddy, and why her grandfather and mother don't get along. Amid these questions, KB shares moments of tenderness and closeness with her stoic grandfather, who does his best to warn KB about predatory boys and the capriciousness of the white kids who live across the street.
KB is at once intuitive and naive, vulnerable and strong. Her voice captures the wonder of youth and the heartache of growing up. As the summer progresses, her presence glows and grows, like the fireflies she catches with her grandfather, like her understanding of the world around her.
Harris, a Michigan native who currently teaches creative writing at Santa Clara University in California, depicts the events of KB's summer in an inspiring manner, ruminating on the nuances of racism, relationships and sexual development with quiet, mesmerizing restraint. Throughout these complicated and emotionally charged issues, What the Fireflies Knew celebrates the fortitude of its young protagonist. This elegant and eloquent novel is perfect for readers who loved Sue Monk Kidd's The Secret Life of Bees and Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye/i.

Blue Bloods Season 12 Episode 12 Review: The Reagan Way


Ancient Chinese Thought, Modern Chinese Power. Yan Xuetong. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 2011.
The nature of China's "rise" or "re-emergence" has become a widely discussed topic as the United States grapples with the ever changing global order, the end of the Washington Consensus, and the beginning of the Beijing Consensus. In 2011 Yan Xuetong, one of China's leading public intellectuals, authored Ancient Chinese Thought, Modern Chinese Power which became the first major study about why and how China historically views foreign policy, the role of government, and the concept of power. Mr. Yan is a pre-eminent Chinese International Relations theorist, a well-established thinker on the global stage, and was named one of the Top 100 Public Intellectuals by Foreign Policy Magazine in 2008. His role as a leading thinker within the Chinese intelligentsia is difficult to overstate, particularly in the past decade as his profile has become globally significant.
The book is an attempt to explain how the leading pre-Qin philosophers: Hanfeizi, Mozi, Guanzi, Mencius, Xunzi, Confucius, and Laozi developed the Chinese concept of "Humane authority." Humane authority is a pre-Qin idea about the ideal basis of government. The idea suggests thoughtfully considered proposals be carried out through established norms for the good of the people. In ancient philosophy, humane authority was balanced against the concept of hegemony, in which men simply sought to accrue power for the sake of it. The key argument is that through stability, well thought out support, and a solid moral base, a government can wisely guide its people. The philosophers developed these theories during the Spring, Autumn, and Warring States periods in Chinese history as a way to interpret which forms of leadership worked well and which did not.
Throughout the course of the book, the author frequently mentions how the concept of the Sage King, who listened to "capable advisors," was an appealing ideal in Chinese culture. This is particularly a relevant point as the Chinese Prime Minister Xi Jingping, another contemporary who also came of age during the Cultural Revolution, continues to consolidate power across China and cull corruption from the ranks. The lasting impact of the Cultural Revolution cannot be understated for either men; it was an event which dramatically shaped their lives. In the case of the author, it seems to have made him a committed realist in how he viewed the world. Because of the author's prominence, it begs the question of how much do Mr. Yan's theories influence present Chinese leadership, or how much is he influenced by present Chinese leadership?
Although at times dry, Mr. Yan makes an exceedingly well-researched argument that the philosophies of these Chinese scholars should be incorporated into the present pantheon of Western-based theories which continue to dominate international relations theory. While his points are valid, Pre-Qin philosophies were developed amongst a homogenous culture, meanwhile the majority of Western thought developed amongst a much more heterogeneous group. Integration will happen as Eastern culture grows in scope globally but overemphasizing its importance as it relates to interactions between states needs to be understood within the context of its development. Concepts that encourage stability are re-assuring to members of the military profession who find themselves sent in harm's way. Given the so-called rise of China and the associated fears of that rise in the West, military members should take their time to read this book so as to understand what motivates Chinese foreign policy decisions.
A weaker aspect of this book are his occasionally generalized comments about how American neoconservatives of the second Bush administration were working solely to accrue power for hegemonic purposes. He neglects to mention that neo-conservative views were heavily based on Democratic Peace Theory, whose proponents believe that democratic states will not go to war with one another. While the Democratic Peace Theory may be viewed by some as a Pollyannaish view of how governments interact, the central theme is that stability is critical to peace. Ultimately, this is a poor generalization that appeals only to some. While Mr. Yan is often referred to as a "neo-comm," because this book places heavy emphasis on the importance of stability and order in global relations—especially as it relates to how China should cooperate with the United States—the author's desire for cooperation and stability should be reassuring to those who fear a twenty-first century replication of a pre-World War I British-German arms race. While there are distinct similarities in the comparison, the acknowledgement of that threat among policymakers on both sides of the Pacific should serve as a distinct dampener upon that potential. This book should be read by all those who call themselves students of Chinese foreign policy as well as those who contemplate the future of the United States in the world. The research presented here would also be a well-appreciated addition to the annals of studies of international relations.

3CX Acquires WP-Live Chat – Enters Multi-Channel Contact Center Market
3CX's latest acquisition is a testimony to the future of live chat and a game changer for the PBX and contact center market.
LONDON, UK, 15 OCTOBER 2019 – 3CX, developer of unified communications solution 3CX Phone System, has today announced the acquisition of WP-Live Chat Support, the successful plugin for real-time website visitor chat. It's the most popular chat plugin for WordPress, amassing over 1 million downloads and over 1,000 downloads per day. 3CX's purchase of WP-Live Chat's technology is proof of the company's focus on multi-channel contact center solutions, following the release of 3CX's own Live Chat plugin which is integrated into 3CX V16.
WP-Live Chat was developed in 2014 by Code Cabin, a South African software development company that builds online business solutions. Impressed by the rate of growth and compelling customer base, 3CX saw an opportunity to obtain best-in-class technology and at the same time gain massive market share.
Nick Galea, CTO and Founder of 3CX, says: "With this acquisition we're getting a foothold in the huge WP and contact center market as well as committing to the development of the technology. We see the future of live chat and this acquisition gives us immediate market share."
3CX intends to further develop WP-Live Chat Support which will be available free of charge with all its features as a standalone product. Unlike 3CX Live Chat & Talk, WP-Live Chat will not include the ability to audio and video call with website visitors – to do this users need to install 3CX's own plugin.

Q: Nginx: try_fiiles directive with variable from path I have set up a server block that looks like this:
root /var/www/platform

location / {
 index index.html;
}

location /contact {
 try_files $uri /contact.html;
}

This works fine. I can go to x.com/contact and the contact.html page loads.
Now I want to add a subdirectory products with files like product1.html and so on. When the user goes to x.com/products/product1 I want to load the html file.
Because the products subdir is within the platform directory, x.com/products/product1.html works fine with the current ^ setup. I just want to get rid of the need to have .html at the end.
So I try adding a location block
location /products/(product) {
 root /products;
 try_files /$1.html $1.html /index.html;
}

But obviously this doesn't work. Any help will be appreciated.
If there's another better (but still easy) approach, I'd love to know it too.

A: Richard basically answered the question in the comments (I am writing this to remove the question from the list of unanswered ones). The solution that worked is adding this location block instead:
location /products/ {
 try_files $uri $uri.html /index.html
}

Getting iPads inside the classroom.
Recently I have gone over a podcast called Tech Edge which is run by Guy Trainin which is full of resourceful apps for teachers of all content areas to use. For my purposes, I looked at one of his videos regarding music apps. This is an example, however, of how good his videos are for teachers of all content areas. Please check out his videos! What I found most helpful was his detailed distribution about what each app had to offer. Also, he has listened to classroom teachers to pull together much of his information. I believe that is important to show that these apps really are being used for productive learning in the field. Guy Trainin does a great job of explaining the positives and negatives of each app and providing alternatives to difficulties if he can. Teachers, please consider using this podcast as a resource for learning about apps that can be implimented into the classroom. Children love a chance to use technology, so let's give them a chance to use it in a productive way. Guy Trainin's materials are well labeled and easy to access. Take some time to look at his videos and find a few apps that are good for you to use in your content area. I have a few that I would like to discuss to show you what I found.
Guy Trainin talks about an app called Songza at the beginning of his video as a good music consumption app. Unfortunately, as I looked through the App Store, I could not find the Songza app and have come to the conclusion that it must not be available anymore. Don't worry, what Songza had to offer can be found in other apps. First, let me discuss another app he briefly talked about to compare what it has to offer to what Songza had to offer and then tell you what I think is a good solution to the situation. Pandora is a music consumption app that allows you to play similar music in a radio station. For example, if you wanted to listen to Coldplay and music similar to them, you would save a Coldplay radio station to your personal radio stations. This station would play not only Coldplay, but music similar to them. To give you an idea of what a Pandora page looks like, I have included a picture of my Pandora account below playing on my Coldplay station.
Here are what I consider the pros of Pandora. In my opinion, Pandora has a better variety of music it plays on it's radio than an app like Spotify. Also, it limits your choice which is good if you want to listen radio style. Towards the bottom of the app you will find an option to like or dislike a song that you are listening to. If you dislike the song, the app will skip it and not play it again. If you like it, it will save it as a song you like and bring it back up in your playlist more often. There is a way to view the songs you like by clicking on the person icon at the bottom right hand of the app. The major cons of this app are the adds. For educational purposes, they are very distracting. Also, there is no way of knowing what song may play next. It may be completely inappropriate, especially for the classroom. As a teacher, you would need to be on your game to quickly change the song if an inappropriate one came up. That leads me to another con of the app, you can only skip so many songs before you can't skip anymore without listening to the song you are on all the way through. So in conclusion on this app, for educational purposes, this app would be best if played in a class where students were working on projects or papers and you just wanted music playing as background noise which you were closely monitoring.
As a music consumer and a future music educator, I would like to recommend the Spotify app as a better one to use over Pandora for educational purposes. Yes, this app will cost $9.99 a month, but the pros outweigh the cons. For educational purposes, what I like about this app is the fact that you get to pick what song comes next. You still have the ability to play radio and shuffle music like you do on Pandora, but you get many more features as well. I've put a picture right below to show you what my home page looks like.
As you can see, there are options to browse, play radio stations, search for specific songs, save songs to playlists, and much more. What is so beneficial about Spotify, on an educational standpoint, is that if you get the premium version, you get to pick which songs come next. This app gives you the opportunity to pick specific songs and play random radios as well. Not only do you get the choice of what comes next, but Spotify tells you if a song is explicit or not. You will see a little button that says, "Explicit" under a song if their is content not suitable for minors. Another great aspect of Spotify is that it can be shared to multiple devices on one account. For example, I can control what is playing through my computer from my phone. As a teacher, this is great because I can quickly change a song even if I am far away from the controls. Students can also share songs in playlists that they have made which are quick and easy to access. Plus, you don't have to worry about adds or random songs getting in the way.
Either Pandora or Spotify can be of great value in your classroom. The thing is, there is nothing that Pandora offers that Spotify can't do and then some. For $9.99, you are really getting a great deal. Plus, you could share it with another teacher and minimize the cost. The only downfall to that is you can't both use it at the same time. Other than that, Spotify is a great educational resource. Don't count Pandora out, I just believe you will like Spotify more in the long run.
I was so excited when I downloaded this app and started using it. I have used GarageBand on my Mac many times for several projects. Many of them have been recordings that I have tried to make "professional" quality. I did not know how much more the app had to offer! I explored the app for quite some time didn't even scratch the surface about what all it can do. The app version of GarageBand is a great tool to use in the classroom. Guy Trainin touched on the fact that students can make recordings with this app. They can do that and so much more with the new updates. This app has setting for both children and more advanced musicians which I found absolutely fascinating. Let me talk on an educational standpoint about what I think is great about this app.
This is a screen shot I took from my iPad as I was browsing through the app. This is the recording part of the app which has a "studio" part and a "fun" part. I clicked on the fun part to see what it has to offer and this is what I found. What students can do is hit the record button at the top of the page but record themselves like they are an alien, monster, etc. What I love about this as a future music teacher is that it gives students a fun way to begin learning how to record. The can edit the track to sound the way they want with easy controls until they master much harder parts. Younger students can also begin understanding how instruments work without having them in their hand. I like this. Instead of handing my students a $700 guitar, I can have them start learning on this app instead. Is it a perfect replica of how a guitar plays? No. But it's a great start! Take a look at this picture to see what I am talking about.
Students can begin learning how to strum, what chord progressions work together, and so much more! I also love how the app include instruments from other countries outside of the United States.
On an educational standpoint, this is great because students are learning ethnomusicology most likely before they even know what that is!
There is so much involved in the GarageBand app, it really will just take time for one to sit down and learn how to use. Most likely, if your students get a chance to sit with this app, they will learn more and be able to teach new features to you! That's a fantastic opportunity for students to work on their self confidence and learning abilities. Another great aspect of this app is that it can be linked with a Mac computer if you use GarageBand on both. Overall, this is a great app to incorporate into the music classroom.
Another great app that Guy Trainin talked about was called Auxy. This app is very simple to use and can teach skills such as rhythm, melody, tempo, and even keys. This app is very simple in that you really only play one bar of patterns at a time. You can make several bars but they don't play one after the other. You can have different melodic figures, bass lines, and drum parts going at the same time. For each of those three there are several different sounds to choose from. This can help students learn the concepts of timbre and balance. Check out this picture I took from a project I worked on recently.
If you click on each of the sounds, you can edit the notes to change pitch and play at different times. This can help students learn how to change melodies and rhythms to change the way a piece sounds.
The above photo shows how you can edit the tempo, swing, key, scale, and much more. These are great features for students to toy around with so they can figure out what features in music create differences between genres.
One thing you do have to be careful with in this app is that there is the possibility to purchase items inside the app that can cost up to $5 or more. These give you more features in the app, which students may be tempted to use. If you're not wanting to spend the money on those items, you'll want to make sure your students know to avoid those!
Overall, this is a great app for learning basics of music theory without having to use a text book. That's always a plus for our students!

Norman Pritchard
Norman Pritchard (Norman Gilbert Pritchard, late stage name Norman Trevor, born June 23, 1875 in Kolkata, India, † October 31, 1929 in Norwalk (California ), USA ) was an athlete and medal winner at the Olympic Games, which for TAC, after the official view his native India participated. In later years he acted under the name Norman Trevor as a film actor.
Pritchard was of British descent and the son of Helen Maynard Pritchard and George Peterson Pritchard, who worked as an accountant for retail companies. Norman Pritchard studied at St. Xavier 's College in Kolkata and worked for some time as an assistant in a commercial enterprise for jute goods.
His sporting passion was football. In a game of his college team in 1897, he scored the first hat-trick in a soccer tournament in India. However, his athletic talent was while running on the sprint distances. From 1894 to 1900 he was continuously Bengali master over 100 yards, with him in 1898 with 10.0 seconds achieved a record of Bengali.
His achievements also found in distant England attention. A visit from Pritchard in the land of his ancestors before the Olympic Summer Games 1900 in Paris used the exclusive London Athletic Club, accept him as a member. In the following days and weeks, he took part in various running events of the club, where he won several victories, so about 100 yards and hurdling over 120 yards, where he could defeat the British Masters in 1897.
Just a week before the start of the athletics competitions at the Games in Paris found the championships of the Amateur Athletics Association held (AAA), which could be equated with the British Championships. This is followed several athletes from the United States participated, both in England appealed for a stopover on the way to Paris. Pritchard took over about 120 yards hurdles behind Alvin Kraenzlein second place. The championships were the officials of the AAA to name the athletes who should travel for your association to Paris. Also Pritchard was selected.
This is followed now lit a later controversy over Pritchard's national affiliation in the Olympics. The background to this is the fact that in the early Olympic Games, the athletes were viewed as participants in a club or association, which in international competitions representing the country in general, where the club or association was established. The appointment of Pritchard by the AAA, which also was a citizen of the British Empire, prompted renowned sports historians to believe that he had taken part in the Olympic Games in 1900 as the British.
Pritchard, however, was also a member of the Bengal Presidency Athletic Club his Indian home town Kolkata. It is unclear whether his trip to Europe in 1900 with a posting to the Olympics was related. The International Olympic Committee (IOC ) leads Norman Pritchard in any case as the first Indian athletes at the Olympic Games and the first medal winner this country and Asia.
Pritchard took at the Olympic Games in Paris on 5 contests, the 60 - meter dash, the 100 -meter run, the 200 -meter run, the 110- meter hurdles and 200 - meter hurdles. He reached three finals and was twice placed second. In the third final of the 110m hurdles he had to give up and did not reach the target.
Placements at the Olympic Games:
II Summer Olympic Games in 1900, Paris 200 m - silver with 22.8 s ( gold at Walter Tewksbury from the USA with 22.2 s; Bronze Stan Rowley from Australia with 22.9 s )
200 m hurdles - Silver with 22.8 s ( gold Alvin Kraenzlein from the USA with 22.2 s; Bronze Stan Rowley from Australia with 22.9 s )
60 m - excreted in the forward ( gold Alvin Kraenzlein from the USA with 7.0 s )
100 m - excreted in the repechage (Gold Frank Jarvis from the USA with 11.0 s )
110m hurdles - in the final abandoned (Gold Alvin Kraenzlein from the USA with 15.4 s )
Note: With the exception of the periods of the respective winner, transit times are estimated, as there was no time measurement for the runners. For them, the residue was estimated to be the winner or pre-placed with a length specification.
Following the Games of Paris, he returned to India. Here he turned back to the football and has held the post of secretary in the Indian Football Association Indian Football Association. In 1906, he traveled again to England, where he again joined the London Athletic Club.
After 1908, the name of Norman Pritchard is no longer documented. Investigations Indian biographers come to the conclusion that Pritchard moved to the U.S. and there began a career as a theater artist and film actor by the name of Norman Trevor. Norman Trevor played in 1917 at the 39th Street Theatre in New York City and played 1915-1929 in at least 28 films, primarily as a supporting actor. This would Norman Pritchard, the first Olympian in a number of successful athletes who transferred from the sports stage for the show stage.
Pritchard also known as Norman Trevor died at the age of 54 to a brain disease.

2. Why isn't SAARG Admitted or Licensed in NYS? What does it take?
3. How would you advise a company like mine to address this with its clients? Is this something that can be overcome?
We are hopeful that you or someone else on this list may be able to shed some additional light.
I am confident that my company is not the only one being asked to satisfy these requirements so we need to know that this is a viable option.
Lloyd's is non-admitted but yes they (and we) are licensed to transact business in all states including New York. Lloyds should suffice for your insurance requirements.
Most insurance carriers are formed in a state and then get licensed in other states to sell insurance. SARRG was formed as a Risk Retention Group under Federal law, not state law. It had to get a license in one state and then was permitted to sell insurance in all states. But SARRG has reorganized and now writes through Lloyds. So its now admitted in all states and permitted to sell insurance. If you are required to have licensed or admitted carrier I think SARRG will now qualify, but to be safe you can always present your policy to the subscriber for approval.
Better idea is to use the Standard Form Agreement, which requires the subscriber to name you as an additional insured.

Freedom of Speech and Contempt of Court
Author: SALOUNI CHOUSHARY
The right to freedom of Speech and Expression is given to all citizens of India vide Article 19(1) (a) of the Constitution of India. The main philosophy behind this right is given in the preamble of the Constitution. Where a solemn resolve is made to safeguard the liberty of thoughts and expression to all citizens. But this right is subject to certain reasonable restrictions that are being imposed under Article 19(2) of the Constitution.
Main elements of Right to Freedom of Speech and Expression are given as:-
This right is given only to citizens of India and not available to foreigners.
Article 19 provides a right to express oneself in any manner; - by words of mouth, writing, printing, picture, film, movie, etc.
The Right to freedom of Speech and Expression is not an absolute right and it allows the government to impose reasonable restrictions in the interest of security, sovereignty, and integrity of India, friendly relation with foreign states, public order, decency, morality, defamation, contempt of court and incitement of offense.
The restriction can be imposed by both action and inaction of Government and if in such cases, the right to freedom of speech and expression is not respected by the state then it would constitute a violation of fundamental rights under Article 19(1) (a).
Contempt of Court as a ground of restriction to Freedom of Speech and Expression
The Contempt of Court provides for the administration of justice in the system and contains provisions for punishing actions that are intended to hurt the dignity and authority of Courts. The command to safeguard the dignity of the judiciary in India is given to the judiciary itself. The reason behind this was to bolster the authority of the court and increase the faith of the public in the judiciary which was considered as the central pillar of democracy.
According to Article 129 and 215 of the Indian constitution, the Supreme Court and High Court respectively will be Court of Records and will have all powers including the authority to punish for contempt of itself.
The Contempt of Court Act, 1971 provides two types of Contempt: - Criminal and Civil. Section 2(b) gives the definition of civil contempt as intentional disobedience to any judgment, decree, direction, order, writ, or any other process of the Court. Criminal Contempt as defined under 2(c) of the act, is the publication of any matter (i) scandalizes or tends to scandalize or lower or tends to lower the authority of any court prejudices or, (ii) interferes or tends to interfere with, the due course of any judicial proceeding or, (iii) interferes or tends to interfere with, or obstructs or tends to obstruct, the administration of justice in any other manner. Although, contempt law has many good provisions, in current periods it has trampled upon the liberties of people.
Right to freedom of Speech and Expression vs. Contempt of Court
Both the right to freedom of speech and the Expression & independence of the judiciary provided by the constitution are the two most important components of democracy. Constructive criticism is one of the very important components for the development of democracy and the Supreme Court needs to protect the freedom of speech. But the main question is where to draw lines? When the criticism is of such kind that has the tendency to lower down the power of the judges and is even capable of obstructing the administration of Justice, in such cases, the court has the power to give punishment for any such acts which is done to demean the value of judiciary as per Contempt of Court Act, 1971. According to section 5 of the act, fair criticism does not come under contempt of court. The irony of the situation can be highlighted by the fact when the remarks were made against the judiciary, they got the power to decide whether it is constructive criticism or not.
Comparative Analysis of Contempt across different Countries
In the United Kingdom, the offense of scandalizing against the Court was abolished in the year 2013 after Law Commission reported that this law was against the liberties of people. The interesting fact is the Indian Contempt law is taken from common law only but even after its abolition there it prevails in India in its full colonial form.
The United States of America also abolished Contempt law, remarking that the dignity of the Court cannot be protected by silencing the opinion of the public or by restricting free discussion about the court.
In Canada also, the Court is open to criticism by the public unless such criticism is an imminent danger to the administration of Justice.
While it is the fact that every citizen of India is provided the right to freedom of speech and expression, contempt of court is one of the reasonable limitations that can act as a rider on this right guaranteed. No fundamental rights guaranteed to citizens are absolute in nature. Therefore the right to freedom of speech and expression is also subjected to certain other reasonable restrictions like defamation, decency, and morality, etc.
The reasonable restrictions were included in section 19 with the motive of keeping balance because framers of the constitution knew that if they would provide absolute rights to Indians, dire situations would ensue leading to a failure of the constitutional mechanism. After all, we all knew that the Constitution of India is a living document that has survived for over seventy years now despite several amendments in it being made and various foiled attempts were also made to dilute the spirit of the Indian Constitution.

Panasonic delivers the world's first portable Blu-ray player, but it's not without its flaws
Chris Jager
Versatile design, bundled car accessories, can be used as a regular Blu-ray player
Expensive, short battery life, 1024x600 screen resolution, bulkier than most portable DVD players
Ironically, the Panasonic DMP-B15 works better as an in-house Blu-ray player than a portable one. While there are things to like about the DMP-B15, the device is simply too expensive to overlook its flaws.
Would you buy this?
$ 1,319.00 (AUD)
The Panasonic DMP-B15 is the world's first portable Blu-ray player. It combines an 8.9in LCD screen and a BD optical drive in a (semi) portable package. It also doubles as a player for the home, complete with YouTube functionality and BD-Live support — not too shabby for a portable device. While the inclusion of HDMI and Ethernet is to be commended, the DMP-B15 is simply too expensive to wholeheartedly recommend. It also comes with a cavalcade of flaws, including short battery life, a bulky size and underwhelming display resolution. Nevertheless, if you're looking for a Blu-ray player that can be taken abroad, this is currently your only option.
The first thing we noticed about the Panasonic DMP-B15 was its size. Weighing in at 1.7kg and measuring 58.7x256x202mm, it is substantially larger than any portable DVD player we've tested, including ancient models such as the Panasonic DVD-LS87 and Grundig DVD P7004. When compared to modern beauties like the LG DP392G, Panasonic's baby looks very chunky indeed.
Despite its girth, the DMP-B15 Blu-ray player is a very attractive looking gadget. The black-and-silver finish has the premium glossy sheen you'd expect from a Blu-ray device. Unfortunately it's also susceptible to fingerprints, though this is nothing a quick wipe of the sleeve won't remedy. The design is pleasingly versatile, with a swivelling tablet-like display that rotates 180 degrees and an inbuilt stand. This allows you to use the DMP-B15 on your desk, lap or car seat with equal ease. (A headrest mount and power adaptor are included for in-car use.) The DMP-B15 looks best when propped on its stand; it could almost pass for a digital photo frame, which happens to be one of its secondary functions.
One of the things we love about the Panasonic DMP-B15 is its interface. All of the major buttons are included on the device itself, including a miniature directional stick for menu navigation. This is just as well, as the included remote control is tiny and very easy to lose.
We were pleasantly surprised by the connectivity options offered by the DMP-B15. Instead of getting by on the basics, Panasonic has loaded the device with a full suite of connections, including an SD memory card slot, Ethernet and HDMI ports, a microphone jack and an AV video output (the only thing missing is a USB port, but we suppose you can't have everything). The HDMI and Ethernet ports are especially noteworthy. They will let you connect the device to a high-def television and enjoy the full functionality of a Panasonic Blu-ray player — including access to YouTube, Picasa and BD-Live features. If you own more than one HDTV, the ability to quickly transport the player from room-to-room is also enticing.
To test the DMP-B15's home player credentials, we hooked it up to a Samsung Series 8 (UA46B8000) LED TV and were very impressed with the results. In addition to playing Blu-ray movies, the Panasonic DMP-B15 can upscale DVDs to 1080p, just like a regular Blu-ray player. We didn't notice any discernable difference between the DMP-B15 and Panasonic's top-of-the-range DMR-BW850: both models boast crystal-clear image quality with minimal over-sharpening. The only downside is the lack of 7.1 channel support.
So far, so good. However, the Panasonic DMP-B15 is a portable device first and foremost, and this is where it begins to stumble. As mentioned, the unit is quite large and bulky, which makes it a bit of a hassle to lug around. It's definitely not something you can toss in your bag for a train trip. We were also disappointed by its battery life. In our battery rundown test, the DMP-B15 held out for 2hr 32min. While this will get you through most feature-length movies, it's still fairly short-lived compared to portable DVD players. By contrast, the Toshiba SD-P91SKY boasts a battery life of over five hours.
But most damning of all is the DMP-B15's native resolution: at 1024x600 pixels, it is well below the 1920x1080 offered by Blu-ray media. While the 8.9in screen is perfectly serviceable and does a good job of warding off reflective glare, the lack of Full HD resolution is galling. It essentially takes away the only reason for owning Blu-ray technology. That said, our Blu-ray movies did look superior to regular DVDs when played on the device — but the difference was pretty minimal.
It cannot be denied that the Panasonic DMP-B15 is a one-of-a-kind product. Whether this makes it innovative — or merely misguided — is debatable. Just what kind of insanely diehard videophile requires Blu-ray movies on the road anyway? The whole concept seems a trifle unnecessary, especially when the screen doesn't output to 1080p. For around the same price, you could buy yourself an all-purpose notebook and fill it with scores of movies — in Full HD, no less. Consequently, only the most dedicated and wealthy Blu-ray fans should consider the Panasonic DMP-B15.

Spaces becoming + symbol in dropdown menu options?
I'm trying to build a survey, but every time I paste a list for dropdown menu options (and even if I manually change them afterwards), all options have their spaces replaced with a + symbol. While that's understandable for the coded value, why does it do that for the actual string as well and how can I fix that?
So I still have no idea how this happened, toying with it only made it more confusing as this issue would appear with shorter lists as well, BUT, creating a new Radio Buttons option with the full list and converting it later to a dropdown menu worked like a charm… somehow.

Chicago firm pays $29M to add to Charleston warehouse portfolio
By John McDermott | The Post and Courier
A Chicago company has invested $29 million to beef up its portfolio of port-driven real estate in the Charleston region.
CenterPoint Properties acquired the 34-acre North Rhett Commerce Center in Hanahan on Tuesday, Berkeley County land records show.
The property at 5801 North Rhett Avenue includes two large warehouses with a combined 511,300 square feet of space.
The seller was an affiliate of Charlotte-based Beacon Partners, which paid $19.3 million for the industrial park in 2013.
"The North Rhett acquisition is a strategic opportunity for CenterPoint to acquire and reposition highly functional, infill, rail-served assets located in close proximity to the Port of Charleston," said PJ Charlton, senior vice president of investments at CenterPoint.
The site includes about six acres of undeveloped land that can be used for parking or building expansions.
"The Port of Charleston is one of the fastest-growing ports in the country," Charlton said in a statement. "It is exciting to expand our East Coast portfolio with buildings that offer the logistics advantages of ports, rail and highway."
The acquisition brings CenterPoint's total investment in the Charleston region to more than $71 million since last summer.
Earlier this year, the Illinois investment firm acquired a 1.6-million-square-foot portfolio of industrial buildings in South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama from Spartanburg-based Johnson Development Associates. That deal included the 52-acre Jedburg Commerce Park along U.S. Interstate 26 near Summerville, which fetched $20.9 million.
CenterPoint entered the local market in August 2015 with its purchase of a 305,423-square-foot warehouse at 1020 North Pointe Industrial Blvd., which is off of Henry J. Brown Jr. Boulevard in Hanahan. The sale price was about $21.4 million.

After months of delays The Smiler has opened to the public. Although not saying anything on their social media channels the smiler opened to guests at around mid-day. The views you get from the queue line and surrounding area are amazing! Although there's a few sections of the ride that are painful it was defiantly worth the wait. The marmaliser looks great from all angles and works really well when your speeding past.
Due to "unforeseen circumstances" the ride didn't open on May 23rd, however work on the queue line has started again today. More metal sheeting is being added to the top of the queue line to stop objects from falling out of the ride and hitting people. Meanwhile elsewhere in the area signs have been added to the games stand and more cars for the ride have arrived and been put on the circuit today. No date has been set for the ride opening but the park is still saying May.
With the ride due to open in 4 days' time queue line signs have been added along with the ride restrictions and information board. The queue line looks almost complete with handrails for the stairs on the way down from the entrance being fitted during our visit today. Speakers have been added in the entrance arch of the ride and on the marmaliser. The ride is starting to look amazing now! Roll on open day.
An opening date has been set for the ride and it's all hands-on deck to get the ride ready. Clearance tests are being run in and around the ride with a red wire frame being parsed around area to check that no one can touch anything that can harm them. Work on installing the marmaliser effects continues with the lights installed and now testing. Words and stickers have been added to the legs of marmaliser. The entrance of the ride has also been set up recently, being bright yellow the entrance defiantly stands out!
The news is finally out about the smilers open day. The ride will be opening from Thursday 23rd May 2013, advertising for the ride is due to kick start again very soon to match the youtube videos that seem to have started to of been uploaded to the official Alton Towers Youtube channel.

CDC Youth League Indicts Two Gov't Officials
Posted on November 14, 2018 by publicagenda1	Leave a comment
-For Undermining The Party Agenda
The Revolutionary National Youth League of the ruling Congress for Democratic Change or Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC) has indicted two top Ministers of the party.
In a press statement issued Monday, the Youth League accused Ministers Mabutu Vlah Nyenpan of the Public Works Ministry and Cooper W. Kruah of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of supporting candidates in the by-elections in Sinoe and Montserrado County electoral district #13 against the governing CDC's candidates in those areas.The Youth League said it is dismayed over the alleged supports to opposition candidates against the interest of the CDC, saying "it is a political deception."
"The information available through our intelligence bureau suggesting that Mr. Kruah has his daughter in the race in District 13, Montserrado County on the ticket of the Unity Party and is using his position and affiliation with government to undermine the mighty Congress for Democratic Change (CDC) candidate, John J. Weah.
"Our attention has been drawn to Mr. Nyenpan, who is supporting an opposition candidate Romeo Quiah against the party's candidate in Sinoe County. These acts being carried out by the two stewards of the government are 'disingenuous' and contravenes the agenda of the CDC-led government," Emmanuel Swen Secretary General of the CDC said in a statement during a press conference on Monday.
According to the CDC Youth League, such acts on the parts of the two ministers is unwarranted. The Secretary General wants Ministers Kruah and Nyenpan to disembark from their alleged plots against the CDC in the impending by-elections.
"We want to remind these two individuals that the positions they occupied as ministers came on the basis of sweat and blood shared by supporters of CDC. These people cannot be victims for ensuring the popular people's victory. The Youth League has forwarded a written communication to CDC Chairman, Mulbah Morlu on its assertion of two government officials fighting the party's interest," Swen added.
At the same time, the CDC Youth League said its attention has been drawn to "callous demolition" of poor people homes by Public Works Minister Mabutu Nyenpan.
This, according to them, has been done unilaterally by the Public Works Minister and contravenes the party's quest to protect the interests of underprivileged.
"Minister Nyenpan has over the last few days engaged in anti-poor people endeavor by unilaterally demolishing homes of struggling Liberians," Swen intoned.
"We are also reliably informed of act of gross insensitivity of Minister Nyepan towards men and women of the National Patriotic Party by constantly insulting them. This must stop."
The Public Works Minister has not commented on the allegation made by the CDC Youth League up to press time. For his part, the Communication Officer at the Ministry of Post and Telecommunications, Caesar Slapeh informed this paper that Minister Kruah is out of Liberia and could not speak on the matter because it's personal and not relating to the Ministry.

Q: Catching TypeError: Missing 1 required positional argument: 'self' I wonder if it's possible to catch the TypeError thrown when a user calls an instance method without instantiation. Something to allow me to write an exception message like:
"Class instance is required for 'this_method'", instead of
"Missing 1 required positional argument: 'self'".

A: Here is a simple code snipped of Calc class with classmethod called addtwo that simply adds two numbers:
class Calc():
    a: int
    b: int

    def addtwo(self,a,b):
        self.a=a
        self.b=b
        return self.a+self.b

if __name__=='__main__':
        print(Calc.addtwo(a=2,b=4))

If you run this, you will get:
TypeError: addtwo() missing 1 required positional argument: 'self'

which is the exact error that you encountered. According to your requirements, it can be easily fixed by enclosing the code inside a try-except block like this:
class Calc():
    a: int
    b: int

    def addtwo(self,a,b):
        self.a=a
        self.b=b
        return self.a+self.b

if __name__=='__main__':
    try:
        print(Calc.addtwo(a=2,b=4))
    except TypeError:
        print("Class instance is required for this_method")

and on running this, you will get:
Class instance is required for this_method

However, the standard way of calling a class method should be like this:
if __name__=='__main__':
    instance = Calc()
    print(instance.addtwo(a=2,b=4))

Hope it helped.


Whether you have know low breast milk supply, or you just need to boost your milk production, here are 5 ways you can see results, fast!
Just because your breast milk supply is ample now, does not necessarily mean you will not struggle with low milk supply over the next few months. And just because you had lots of breast milk for one baby does not mean it will be the same for the next baby.
There are many causes of low milk supply, if you think you are struggling, check out the 5 common signs of poor breastmilk supply.
It seems so simple doesn't it? The reality is busy moms seldom stop long enough to drink enough water to stay hydrated, let alone enough to feed a baby as well. This is one of the most common reasons women are struggling with keeping up with baby's hunger. It is also one of the easiest things to fix.
Ideally you will be drinking about 3 quarts of water per day.
The best way I have found to make sure I am drinking enough is to have two thermal bottles on the go – on in the refrigerator, and one beside me in my breastfeeding box. Find out here what else I keep in my breastfeeding box.
If you aren't a huge fan of plain water, try adding a slice of lemon, some mint leaves, slices of cucumber or watermelon.
You can buy all of these separately, or take the sensible (and cheaper) path and buy them as a combined capsule like MilkyMomma. Milkymomma has been shown to increase milk supply significantly in most of it's users and it is an affordable, effective way of quickly increasing your milk supply.
You cannot give what you do not have. After having a baby, your body needs plenty of protein to provide the building blocks for skin and muscle.
You also need ample natural fats (not soy, canola or corn) to provide a foundation for your body to make your own hormones as well as to provide the fatty part of your milk to nourish your baby.
Babies need lots of fat to grow their brain and nerves as these are made up of 60% fat!
Here is more information on eating a high nutrient diet for breastfeeding.
While you are breastfeeding it is a good idea to take a daily multivitamin. This helps to ensure that you are getting the right amount of all the micro nutrients that our modern foods are lacking in. I like the NATURELO Whole Food Multivitamin as it is taken from whole food sources.
Your body has an amazing feed-back loop built in to it. The more your baby feeds, the more milk your body will make. Try to increase your feeds from 3 hourly to 2 hourly for a day or two and see how you go.
At the end of each feed gently but firmly compress your breast as the baby feeds. This helps to ensure that your breasts are fully emptied at each feed to encourage your body to make more milk. Lactation specialist Dr Jack Newman has instructions on breast compressions here.
At the end of each feed or in between feeding times, sneak in a little pumping session. If you are exclusively pumping, try and pump every two hours until a good supply is established.
Pumping for 5-10 minutes at the end of a feeding session, or in between feeds will signal your body that it needs to make more milk. pumping on both breasts at the same time is what is referred to as "double pumping". Double pumping is much more effective than trying to do one side at a time.
Invest in a good quality double breast pump, you will thank me for it later. A poor quality pump really just doesn't do the job as well, as effectively or as comfortably AND doing both sides at once takes half the time!
There is no rule that says baby can only feed from one side at a time, or that you should only feed from each side once in a sitting. You can swap from one side to the other and back again over and over if you need to.
This is a great way of encouraging your body to produce more milk quickly and it can be very effective.
If, after a week of trying these things, you are not noticing enough increase of your milk supply, you really should talk with a lactation consultant.
Working with a doctor or lactation consultant, you can trial taking domperidone. Domperidone is an anti nausea medication that as a side effect, boosts your lactation. It is effective in most cases, and it has very few side effects. However you do need a prescription for it. It works most effectively when combined with all of the above techniques as well, especially herbal supplements.
Babies learn to breastfeed by breastfeeding.
Mama learns to breastfeed by breastfeeding.
This is the exact SNS that I have used for all of my children. I found it absolutely fantastic, and with some good support, herbs, pumping and some domperidone I was eventually able to exclusively breastfed all my kids.
I am currently drinking Healthy nursing tea. I started leaking excess milk immediately at my next nursing. AND hear baby swallowing a lot more. I've been using this once in the morning and once before bed and my 2 month old has gone from sleeping in 3-4 hr blocks at night to sleeping for 7 straight hours before she wakes up hungry.


Ok Henry, for today's challenge all you have to do is give the shoe a good sniff.
We actually had a cat who would do this.
Sweet little calico, but not very bright.
We always wondered if her shoe sniffing habit was the cause of that or the effect.

Zachary: "Who agreed to this shoot???"
While not the most intuitive of apps, and possible the most expensive one I've purchased to date at $9.99, it was generally easy to use and definitely fun to play with.
Posterizing it made the fact it was a bit under focused a non-issue.
I like to carry shoes around, but I draw the line at sniffin'. They're your feet in 'em, sniff 'em yourself.
I like the adobe touch! Going to have to look into it! None of these kids are shoe aficionados which is surprising.
LOL Love those shots! So funny! I have a dog that licks toes, but no shoe sniffers. Love that last photo!

How do you clean soap?
Water alone can not dissolve the fat and contains up dirt. A clean soap because it has the ability to form emulsions with fat-soluble materials, the soap molecules surround the dirt to include it in an envelope called micelle, the polar part of the soap molecule dissolves in the fat droplet while the carboxylate groups, polar, oriented toward the water layer around them. The repulsion between like charges prevents the oil droplets come together again. It thus forms an emulsion that can be separated from the surface being washed. The soaps are ineffective for cleaning in hard water (water containing salts of heavy metals, especially iron and calcium), they precipitated as insoluble salts (crust tubs). In contrast, iron and calcium salts of alkyl hydrogen sulfates are soluble in water and the sodium salts of these materials, known as detergents (cleaning agents) are effective even in hard water.
These detergents contain straight carbon chains, similar to those of natural fats. They are metabolized by bacteria in treatment plants for sewage and are known as "biodegradable detergents.
Although synthetic detergents differ considerably in their structures, their molecules have a common characteristic they share with ordinary soap: it has a very long apolar chain, soluble in fats, and a polar end, soluble in water.

Dubai unveils $15.5bn budget; health, infrastructure top focus
In his capacity as Dubai ruler, HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE, has approved the emirate's general budget for the fiscal year 2021, with total expenditures put at AED57.1 billion ($15.5 billion).
The newly-announced budget takes into account the exceptional economic conditions of the fiscal year 2020 and the repercussions of the Covid-19 pandemic on the global economy. It also confirms Dubai's ability to deal with the crisis, restore the pace of economic growth, strengthen social benefits and essential services and adopt policies that achieve growth, economic stability and financial sustainability in the medium and long term.
The 2021 budget also demonstrates continued efforts to develop revenues, raise the spending efficiency and increase the level of private sector engagement.
Dubai's new budget will continue to support social, health, educational and cultural services as well as investments in infrastructure services in the emirate, as part of the objective of making Dubai one of the world's best cities to live in.
Abdulrahman Saleh Al Saleh, Director General of the Department of Finance of the Government of Dubai (DOF), said Dubai's Strategic Plan 2021 is a key pillar in Dubai's journey towards the future.
He further pointed out that Dubai government had successfully implemented programmes that aim to achieve structural, economic and financial reforms, in addition to launching initiatives to diversify the economic base.
"These programmes and initiatives have contributed to stimulating the growth of local GDP, which played a vital role in enhancing the resilience of the local economy during the pandemic. Investment in the technical infrastructure enabled the government and the private sector's rapid response to business transformation," noted Al Saleh.
Highlighting the impact of the pandemic on public finances, particularly in terms of declining revenues, the DOF official said this had led to measures being taken by the government to decrease operational spending and strengthen investment spending.
Economic incentives issued under the directives of Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council of Dubai, to support the business sector in the emirate, have contributed to achieving institutional agility through structuring the government to achieve financial sustainability, he added.
According to him, Dubai government is expected to achieve public revenues of AED52.314 billion, despite the economic incentive measures adopted by the government that would reduce some fees and freeze the increase in fees, and the decision to not impose any new fees without providing a new service.
These revenues are based on ongoing operations in the emirate and do not rely on oil revenues. Oil revenues account for 4 per cent of the total projected revenues for the fiscal year 2021. This is in addition to developing the government revenue structure, which will enhance financial sustainability, he added.
Non-tax revenues, which come from fees, account for 59 per cent of the total expected revenues, while tax revenues account for 31 per cent, and government investment revenues represent 6 per cent of the total expected revenues.
Arif Abdulrahman Ahli, Executive Director, Planning and General Budget Sector at DOF, pointed out that the initial estimates for 2021 suggest that GDP will see four per cent growth, supported by continued recovery of economic activities.
"The government will continue to enhance the role of the private sector so it can serve as one of the main engines of economic growth," he observed.
"We will also continue to support SME's in conjunction with the government's continued implementation of structural reforms aimed at diversifying the economy, improving the business environment and opening new horizons for domestic and foreign investment," he added.
Ahli said the 2021 budget comes in response to the requirements for recovery and dealing with the postponement of Expo 2020 Dubai.
"It also reflects the emirate's financial stability through its implementation of financial policies as per best global practices. DOF seeks to develop programmes that aim to raise government spending efficiency and promote partnerships with the private sector. Additionally, it also seeks to constantly develop the budget and review its implementation," he added.
