CERC eases norm to issue power trading licence to NTPC
FE Bureau
The company would buy power from renewable power generators and sell the same to one or more distribution companies, which requires a trading licence.
The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) has granted NTPC the licence for inter-state trading in electricity, even though the power generation behemoth fell short of having the necessary requirements. CERC said that it "relaxed the current ratio and liquidity ratio requirement in public interest in view of the policy of the government of India for promoting renewable energy".
The net worth of NTPC is Rs 93,415 crore with a current ratio of 0.88 and a liquidity ratio of 0.74- falling short of the regulatory requirements of maintaining minimum current ratio and liquidity ratio of 1:1 for getting a trading licence. Trading licence requires a net worth of Rs 50 crore.
The ministry of new and renewable energy has identified NTPC as the nodal agency for 20,000 MW solar and wind power plants through it. The company would buy power from renewable power generators and sell the same to one or more distribution companies, which requires a trading licence.
NTPC has already selected developers for 1,150 MW of wind and 2,000 MW solar power projects through competitive bidding, where tariffs of Rs 2.67/unit for solar and Rs 2.87/unit for wind (including trading margin of Rs 0.07/unit) had been discovered. Various discoms have already agreed to buy 7,150 MW power from this scheme. NTPC claims that since it is the intermediary agency, renewable developers quoted such low tariffs as they were sure of getting payments on time.
Even as NTPC does not meet the criteria, the Maharatna Central Public Sector Enterprise is financially sound with respect to liquidity for carrying out electricity trade, it added. NTPC reported a net profit of Rs 11,750 crore in FY19 on a standalone basis, registering a year-on-year increase of 13.6% and its revenue grew 8.2% to Rs 92,180 crore.
NTPC's earlier petition for trading licence was rejected by CERC in 2016, when the regulator suggested NTPC to use the existing trading licence of its subsidiary - NTPC Vidyut Vypar Nigam (NVVN). However, NTPC said that it would cause adverse financial implications as NVVN would have to pay GST on transaction between NTPC and NVVN.


In an early announcement at GDC, Paradox have revealed their newest title to the word: Sengoku. A grand strategy title set in 15th century Feudal Japan, Sengoku promises to be historically accurate and offer a deep political game experience. You can see the serene first reveal trailer above, and get all the details after the jump.
Sengoku focuses on deep character driven gameplay, with players heading an influential and powerful Samurai family. Starting in 1467 during civil war, the Ashikaga Shoguns' authority has collapsed and so it is every man for himself. Through honour, conquest, betrayal and combat, players will work towards the survival of their family and the capture of power.
Paradox have said that the games will feature a deep political system, where deals can be made with external powers in order to help progress your power struggle. In your bid to become Shogun, you'll be able to employ powerful Samurai soldiers and recruit Ninja clans as you wage war across a historically accurate map of Japan as it was during the warring states period.

Turning a piece of stuff into the stuff of peace
David Moscinski
I was told of a church worker visiting from South Africa who, while being driven across the countryside, commented on the many mini-apartments he saw along the way.
Informed that these long metal buildings were not mini-apartments where people lived, but rather places where they stored stuff when not needed, he looked puzzled and asked, "If you do not need this stuff, then why do you have it?"
Now that is a good question coming from the resident of a country that may not be as "stuff rich" as ours. The sheer amount of stuff we have is often puzzling even to us. We have so much of it that we need those special places to store it. These stuff storage places used to dot the countryside, but they are now invading the city to duke it out with us for valuable living space.
While storing our stuff, however, we are busy enriching ourselves by gathering still more stuff. How many wonderful, well-cherished personal transporters (cars) must spend cold, lonely nights shivering in the driveway because their garage-home is full of stuff?
As we continue to accumulate still more stuff some questions come to mind. "As we become richer in our personal stuff, do we become poorer in our personal peace?" Let me ask it another way, "Do we attempt to find the stuff of peace in a piece of stuff? Is the pursuit of riches through the accumulation of more and more stuff even good for us?"
Not according to Charles Mathewer and Evan Sandsmark writing in an Outlook Perspective feature that appeared in the July 28, 2017, edition of the Washington Post. Their article was titled, "Being Rich Wrecks Your Soul. We Used To Know That."
Mathewer and Sandsmark reviewed numerous studies examining the impact that wealth has on the holder of that wealth. They stated, "Over the past few years, a pile of studies from the behavioral sciences has appeared, and they all say, more or less, 'Being rich is really bad for you.' Wealth, it turns out, leads to behavioral and psychological maladies. The rich act and think in misdirected ways."
They cited studies that found the rich to be the worst tax evaders who hid vast sums of money in secret, non-traceable accounts.
The rich tended to show "significantly less compassion and empathy toward suffering people" and proportionately gave less to charity. Most importantly, however, was the authors' finding that, "Some studies go so far as to suggest that simply being around great material wealth makes people less willing to share.
"Because they have lower levels of empathy, they have fewer opportunities to practice acts of compassion — which studies suggest give people a great deal of pleasure."
The headline of the article, "Being Rich Wrecks Your Soul," brings to mind the biblical admonition, "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." Showing compassion and empathy toward those who suffer and being willing to share what has been gifted to us — are these not qualities to be emulated?
As to the matter of wealth itself, do we own it or does it own us? What if we viewed all that we have, including our life itself, as gifts to be shared having been given to us by someone who so loved the world? That is how you turn a piece of stuff into the stuff of peace. Peace to others and to yourself.
May the peace be with you.

Q: C# freeze process while using Show instead of ShowDialog I am writing an addin for an specific program (Autodesk Revit).
Within this addin, i am showing a WinForm to the user.
With a button on the winform, the user will be temporary sent back to the main application (Autodesk Revit) to make a selection, and once finished it will be sent back to the WinForm.
When initializing the Winform, i can either use the Form.Show() or use Form.ShowDialog()
If i would be using the Form.Show() The form will proper display and a button on the form can be used to let the user make a selection in the main application and send him back to the form when he is done with his selection using this.hide()before the selection and this.Show() after to make the form temporarily hidden during selection process.
If i would be using the Form.ShowDialog() The form will proper display and a button on the form can be used, but because the ShowDialog freezes the main application while waiting for the dialogresults, the user wont be able to make a selection.
So thats why i would want to go with the Form.Show() instead of Form.ShowDialog().
But here is the issue i am facing:
If i use the Form.Show(), the form can be moved to the background or another monitor, and because the main application is not in a frozen state, the user can just continue working and completely forget the form is still open.
So i am wondering if it is possible to somehow idle/freeze the main application as if i was using the ShowDialog while in reality using the Show ?

A: I think you need to adjust your logic a bit:

*

*use ShowDialog, but close the form to return to the original application

*devise a method of saving the forms state (e.g. serialize to a MemoryStream) before closing.

*recreate the form and restore its state before showing it modal again when you want the user to be sent to the form again.

A: Using another thread won't hang your main form when using ShowDialogue() Use the code below:
        //Initially
        this.Enabled = false;
        Form form = new YourForm();
        form.TopMost = true;
        form.Focus();
        System.Threading.Thread thread = new System.Threading.Thread(() => form.ShowDialog());
        thread.Priority = System.Threading.ThreadPriority.Highest; //<- just an example, set it according to your need
        thread.Start();

        //If you want to close it from the main form (you can do it from the opened form itself though)
        form.Invoke((MethodInvoker)delegate
        {
            form.Close();
        });
        thread.Abort();
        this.TopMost = true;
        this.Enabled = true;
        this.Focus();
        this.TopMost = false;

Q: why document.getElementsByName().length always return 0? I'm new to JavaScript. In the following code getElementsByName("li").length always returns 0 although there are many
-tags in my HTML, why?
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
    var len = document.getElementsByName('li').length;
    alert(len);
})

art of my HTML:

aaaaaa

bbbbbb

cccccc

A: Replace
document.getElementsByName('li')
with
document.getElementsByTagName('li')
This is happening cause you are selecting by tag name and not by name ! You are using wrong function!

A: The method you are attempting to use is trying to find a specific element by its name.
None of your list items have a name, to do this you should update your code so that your items have names.
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
    var len = document.getElementsByName('list_item_1').length;
    alert(len);
})

aaaaaa

A: You can do something like this because getElementsByTagName() returns NodeList so you can iterate over it like an array or get the length.

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
    var listElements = document.getElementById('list').getElementsByTagName("li");
    alert(listElements.length);
})

aaaaaa

bbbbbb

cccccc

getElementsByName() although also returns NodeList but it returns list of all same name elements in the whole document so to make this work you need to give same name to all list items.

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
    var len = document.getElementsByName('name').length;
    alert(len);
});

aaaaaa

bbbbbb

cccccc

Hubble Stretches Stellar Tape Measure 10 Times Farther into Space
April 10, 2014 - Astronomy - no comments
Credit: NASA, ESA, A. Riess (JHU/STScI), S. Casertano (STScI/JHU), J. Anderson and J. MacKenty (STScI), and A. Filippenko (University of California, Berkeley)
APRIL 10, 2014: Astronomers continue refining the precision of distance measurement techniques to better understand the dimensions of the universe. Calculating the age of the universe, its expansion rate, and the nature of dark energy all depend on the precise distance measurements to stars and galaxies. If the astronomical yardsticks are off, the astronomical interpretation may be flawed. The most reliable method for making astronomical distance measurements is to use straightforward geometry where the 186-million-mile diameter of Earth's orbit is used to construct a baseline of a triangle, much as a land surveyor would use. If a target star is close enough, it will appear to zigzag on the sky during the year as a reflection of Earth's orbit about the Sun. This technique is called parallax. The stars are so far away that the angle of this parallax shift is incredibly tiny. An innovative new observing technique has extended Hubble's yardstick 10 times farther into our galaxy, out to a distance of 7,500 light-years from Earth.
Even though NASA's Hubble Space Telescope is 24 years old, astronomers are still coming up with imaginative, novel, and groundbreaking new uses for it. The latest is an innovative technique that improves Hubble's observing accuracy to the point where rock-solid distance measurements can be made to Milky Way stars 10 times farther away than ever accomplished before.
To do this, Hubble observations and subsequent analysis were fine-tuned to make angular measurements (needed for estimating distances) that are so fine that if your eyes had a similar capability you could read a car's license plate located as far away as the Moon!
This new capability allows astronomers to use even more distant stars as yardsticks to refine estimates. In addition, it is expected to yield new insight into the nature of dark energy, a mysterious component of space that is pushing the universe apart at an ever-faster rate.
As proof of concept for this new long-range precision, Hubble was used to measure the distance to a bright star of a special class (called Cepheid variables) that is located approximately 7,500 light-years away in the northern constellation Auriga. The technique worked so well that additional Hubble distance measurements to other far-flung Cepheids are being measured.
Such measurements will be used to provide firmer footing for the so-called cosmic "distance ladder." This ladder's "bottom rung" is built on measurements to Cepheid variable stars that, because of their known intrinsic brightnesses, have been used for more that a century to gauge the size of the observable universe. They are the first step in calibrating far-more-distant intergalactic milepost markers, such as Type Ia supernovae.
The most reliable method for making astronomical distance measurements is to use straightforward geometry where the 186-million-mile diameter of Earth's orbit is used to construct a baseline of a triangle, much as a land surveyor would use. If a target star is close enough, it will appear to zigzag on the sky during the year as a reflection of Earth's orbit about the Sun. This technique is called parallax.
Astronomical parallax works reliably for stars within a few hundred light-years of Earth. For example, the position of the nearest star system to our Sun, Alpha Centauri, varies due to parallax by only one arc second on the sky during the year, which is equal to the apparent width of a dime seen from two miles away.
But the farther away the star, the smaller the angle of its apparent back-and-forth motion, until the offset is so small it can barely be measured. Astronomers have pushed to make ever smaller angular measurements to extend the parallax yardstick ever deeper into our galaxy.
Noble Laureate Adam Riess of the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) and the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md., in collaboration with Stefano Casertano of STScI, developed an ingenious technique to use Hubble to make measurements as fine as five-billionths of a degree on the sky. (A degree is twice the angular width of the full moon.)
Riess imagined that if Hubble could take numerous exposures of a target star quickly, he could combine the data to measure extremely small angles on the sky. But rather than taking multiple exposures, Riess had the stars trail across Hubble's imaging detector to leave linear streaks. Riess says that he got the idea for how to do the observation while swimming laps in lanes that are long, linear swaths, like the stellar images streaked across the detector. Infinitesimal offsets in the streaks that could be caused by parallax were measured through new image analysis techniques developed by Casertano and Riess.
To make a distance measurement, exposures of the target Cepheid star were taken every six months, when Earth is on opposite sides of the Sun. A very subtle shift in the Cepheid's position was measured to an accuracy of 1/1000 the width of a single picture element (pixel) in Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 (which has 16.8 megapixels total). A third exposure was taken 12 months after the first observation to allow for the team to subtract the effects of the subtle space motion of stars, with additional exposures used to remove other sources of error.
Riess shares the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics with another team for his leadership in the 1998 discovery that the expansion rate of the universe is accelerating, a phenomenon widely attributed to a mysterious, unexplained "dark energy" filling the universe. His goal is to refine estimates for the universe's expansion rate to the point where dark energy can be better characterized.

To simplify possible complications, one should make preliminary reductions of an easy nature. For example, one may always consider group schemes where the base scheme, S, is connected.

Greetings... am musing a medium vs. large Cafe bag purchase and have a question about the pad... is the default pad as pictured with little nubs or is it similar to the Imago's pad, which is almost gel-like? I have an Imago, so I ask.
(I did see the pictures, but I do know that one of the Imago's featured pictures had a different pad than what is currently on mine, purchased 12/08).
I have a large cafe bag and manage to stuff it. Dang netbooks, now ya gotta take 'em everywhere. My strap's pad is not nubby, but is lightly textured neoprene-like stuff. Not exactly gel-like either. Maybe you can get a glimse on Maverick's review a couple of fora down. I did not opt for the absolute strap for this bag, but the strap it comes with does a very good job of distributing the weight--if I had a purse this heavy it would really be uncomfortable.
Your mileage may vary (I did get these a while back), but on my Medium, it's nubby and on my large, it's Imago style.

This amazing gem, done in the early 1970s by William Shatner—fresh off the cult classic Star Trek television series of the 60s—is a highly visual excursion around the world, from Easter Island to Carnac in Brittany to Baalbek in Lebanon to Nan Madol on a remote Pacific Island, Nazca and much more. This made-for-TV documentary, using Swiss and German cinema photographers, explores many ancient mysteries and the concept of gods from outer space. Shatner takes us around the world to astounding archaeological sites, and then shows us impossible artifacts from the past. Finally, Shatner tackles the UFO enigma, including government cover-ups related to UFOs. Rare interviews with figures of the 1960s and 70s including Anna Mitchell-Hedges, former owner of the famous crystal skull. It's Captain Kirk at his best revealing the fascinating "Mysteries of the Gods." A surprisingly well-done lost documentary produced at the peak of the "Chariots of the Gods" period that has led us to the popular Ancient Aliens TV series. Includes trailers and extras.

Santana Effect
With the addition of Johan Santana, here is the what the Mets' starting five looks like:
1. Johan Santana
2. Pedro Martinez
3. Orlando Hernandez
4. John Maine
5. Oliver Perez
There are many who will argue that El Duque is the #5, and not the #3, but my guess is that this is the way the rotation will shake out — barring injuries — when spring training breaks at the end of March. Omar Minaya and Willie Randolph put significant emphasis on past history when evaluating players, and though Orlando Hernandez's 2007 was abbreviated, the numbers he put up in that limited time were excellent. More to the point, if you take out the handful of his awful starts — which, in hindsight, had to have been affected by health issues — he could have been considered their most dominant starter. When healthy, he was almost a cinch to go seven innings and give up three runs or less.
OK, there may be a better argument for John Maine to be the #3 — the only thing going against Johnny is that his second half was an abysmal disappointment compared to his first-half dominance. But here's the kicker: go ahead and make your case for Maine — it doesn't matter! Put Maine #3, Ollie #4, and El Duque #5 and you tell me who suddenly has the deepest starting rotation in the NL East?
This is perhaps the greatest impact of the "Santana Effect" — everyone drops down a notch, and the Mets look really strong at both the backend and the front-end. A week ago, we were concerned that the Mets starters were a collection of question marks — effectively, four #3s and a big hole / hope against hope at #5. We were upset that the Mets one-two punch at the top couldn't match up with the likes of Hamels / Myers or Smoltz / Hudson. Today, however, the question is not the front-end for the Mets, but everyone else's back end. Who in the NL East — in baseball, for that matter — will go into the 2008 season with the quality of John Maine and Oliver Perez at #3 and #4? Who has a guy with the dominating potential of Orlando Hernandez at #5?
Speaking of the fifth spot, Johan Santana's presence could be the best thing to happen to Mike Pelfrey over the long term. In the short term, yes, it probably bumps Pelfrey back to AAA (assuming there are no injuries). However, we've argued here several times that Pelfrey needs to spend more time in the minors for seasoning. Maybe now, with the pressure of MLB games lifted, Pelfrey can concentrate on commanding a change-up. Who knows, maybe he'll even have the chance to pull the cobwebs off an overhand curve. In any case, I don't think any young pitcher in today's game can be hurt by extra innings in the minors — nearly all are rushed up too early. Lets watch Pelfrey continue to polish his all-around game, establish an off-speed pitch, build confidence, and dominate at a lower level. There's no doubt he'll have an opportunity at some point to fill in for El Duque for some spot starts — and develop at a more realistic pace.
Bottom line: what a difference a day makes.

well i will miss that fast flash of light gomez. what a joy to watch. but wow. the pitching lineup you describe. wow is right.
isuzudude January 30, 2008 at 9:44 am
I don't want to rain on the parade (as I've been throwing one of the ticker-tape variety by myself all night), but it is important to at least keep in mind that physicals still need to be passed and a contract extension still needs to be worked out to make this deal 100% official. I know we're already 95% of the way, but how devastating would it be to get all worked up in a frenzy imaging Johan joining the Mets just to have the rug ripped out from under us because of Humber's balky elbow? So don't uncross those fingers just yet…
But anyway, I can't resist dreaming about the Mets' rotation of 2008, either. I'm getting picky, Joe, but I'm in disagreement with 2 things in your projected rotation order. #1 – I think I let Pedro take the ball in the season opener over Johan. We all know how great Santana is, but I don't think we've seen a more dominating pitcher in all of baseball over the past 20 years than Pedro in his heyday (F U Roger Clemens). No, he isn't as good as he was back in the late 90s, but I think it's more about respect at this stage of the game. He'll be the longest tenured Met of any of our starters to open the year, and he's made his way back from the biggest obstacle that he's ever faced during his career (shoulder surgery). He's also entering the final year of his contract, so this might be his final opportunity to be the Mets' opening day starter – something Johan will likely have 4 or 5 more years to proclaim. Also, since the Mets are opening up the season with 6 games on the road before their home opener against (who else?) THE PHILLIES, Santana would then be in line to open that series. How beautiful would that be? #2 – As you mention, I'd move Perez up to 4th and El Duque to 5th, if only for the lone reason to break up the lefties if Johan is the ace. Additionally, if El Duque is most injury prone, we'll want to skip his spot whenever necessary, and being the 5th starter gives us the most flexibility. I'm nit-picking, I know.
With our projected rotation, I'd say forget about the East – there's no better rotation in the entire NL! The Diamondbacks are 2nd, but are hoping Randy Johnson can contribute as a #3, and the Cubs would be close if they acquire Bedard. Other than that, I don't see anyone who matches up against our 1 thru 5.
And that leads me to wondering…could this be the best 1 thru 5 in Mets franchise history? I'd love to compare the numbers following the season pitted up against the 1988 Gooden-Darling-Fernandez-Cone-Ojeda and the 1971 Seaver-Gentry-Koosman-Ryan-Sadecki rotations.
On the topic of Pelfrey, does this acquisition make it possible for him to transition into a reliever at the AAA level? I know this is something we've discussed at length on this blog, but my gut tells me no. With Pedro, Perez, and Duque all scheduled to come off the books by 2009, we're going to need at least one prospect to fill a rotation spot, and odds are it's Pelfrey. Figure on him getting 20-something starts at AAA this year, hopefully winning 10+ games with an ERA under 3.00 and a strong K to IP ratio, with a few spot starts with the Mets sprinkled in.
One final thing. Not that it's a big deal, but what should this season's slogan be now that Santana is likely in the fold? Last year it was "Our Season Has Come." Mets.com's headline banner says "Final Season! Mets at Shea Stadium," which sounds bland and depressing. Any suggestions?

murph January 30, 2008 at 10:20 am
Johan, Pedro, Ollie, El Duque…
with the exception of John Maine, we could have a rotation where last names aren't needed.
skibolton January 30, 2008 at 11:54 am
I'd leave pelfrey at AAA starting games. The only thing that worries me is that we have very few options for spot starts now at AAA. If sombody gets hurt, we have sosa and pelfrey, but there isn't much depth after that. I think that the depth looked ok with humber and mulvey at AAA, but it just got much weaker. I'd be curious to see if this convinces the mets to start rustich out as a starter this season. I certainly wouldn't be disappointed to see that. I think that vargas bostick trade certainly looks slightly better now. I'd hope to see a veteran or two brought in to fill out spots in AAA, since there is now some room on the 40 man roster. I don't think I'd object to a freddy garcia signing at this point either, since he'd now be insurance in the latter part of the season.
Micalpalyn January 30, 2008 at 1:43 pm
My turn:
Santana-Pedro-Ollie-Maine-(El Duque/Pelfrey).
Omar must get Ollie his extension. He is 26, 3 yrs younger than Santana and his maturity (and Maine's) could really be realized this yr.
El Duque: Unfortunately I disagree. When he is good he is golden. When he is bad..Again I think Pelfrey is still here because Omar still thinks he can get over the hump. I think he could/should be #5, with El Duque relieving until there is an injury/performance issue.
Like Ski says: I think we need to look at what is left. Thats 2-3 players OFF our 40man (mulvey?) so there is room, and as has been well spoken we have a #1 draft pick comming and plenty of oppurtunities to sign international players.
Isu: Yes I think Pedro should get the ball on opening day. But think of the buzz if its Santana. MY FEAR of course is a Santana injury.
joe muscaglione January 30, 2008 at 1:50 pm
Super-stoked about this lineup. On paper, how does everyone feel it compares to the '86 staff?
joe January 30, 2008 at 2:04 pm
isuzudude, I'm totally fine with Pedro on Opening Day, and telling all of MLB that Johan Santana is "merely" our #2 !!!
per joe m's comment: to refresh everyone's memory:
1. Dwight Gooden vs. Santana
2. Ron Darling vs. Pedro
3. Bobby Ojeda vs. "John"
4. Sid Fernandez vs. Ollie
5. Rick Aguilera vs. El Duque
Tough call … I think I take the '86 rotation — they all had banner years that season (and completed 27 games!).
skibolton January 30, 2008 at 2:57 pm
The mets only have 36 players on the 40 man roster as of right now. They may be leaving a spot or two open for spring training, but I don't think a few incentive laden signings will kill them. Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing the team make a move for brad wilkerson now. He play's right, hit's right handed, and can play first if we need it. I've heard he may already have an agreement with seattle in case the trade for bedard goes through, but how long will he sit around and wait?
isuzudude January 30, 2008 at 3:12 pm
Skibo – Wilkerson is actually left-handed (and more strikeout prone than Rob Deer, for that matter). I still think a Kevin Mench signing would strengthen our RF situation, as well as our bench from the right side. I concur with signing Garcia, and I'm also interested in inviting guys like Ramon Ortiz or Odalis Perez to spring training, with intentions of starting them in AAA in case of major league injuries.
SK – that slogan works for me, brother!
Matt Himelfarb January 30, 2008 at 4:29 pm
In a perfect world, I'd like to see a Santana/Martinez/Maine/Perez/Heilman in our rotation, but I doubt the Mets will revisit the Heilman talks after acquiring Johan. Still, I'd like to see them move Hernandez into a spot-starter role and have someone like Odalis Perez or Ramon Ortiz compete with Pelfrey for the 5th spot, with Pelfrey either making the team or heading back to AAA as a starter.
I simply don't understand where some of you folks are coming from. Why does it make sense to demote a 9-5 pitcher who had a 3.72 ERA and 1.17 WHIP last year to spot starter/long relief duty, and let guys with annual ERAs over 5.00 and WHIPs over 1.50 be our 5th starter? How would it benefit the team to have a guy like Odalis Perez start every 5th day and last no longer than 5 innings each start with El Duque relieving him with the Mets already trailing by 4, opposed to having Hernandez start and last 7 innings, giving up 3 runs, and handing the bullpen a chance to earn the save? Can someone please justify why El Duque is not qualified to be a starting pitcher anymore???
sincekindergarten January 30, 2008 at 5:15 pm
Gotta chime in on the #5 . . . ID, you're right, and agreeing with my slogan (ripped off from Jim Thome when he was with the Indians) has nothing to do with it. El Duque is easily better than either Odalis Perez of Ramon Ortiz. Another starter who can go 7 innings a start is that less wear and tear on the pen, which, IMO, was the weak spot last year. Duaner Sanchez coming back will go a long way towards making that a stronger spot, and Matt Wise and Steve Register will make their contributions. I see Register winding back up with his former team, though, as Ricardo Rincon is probably going to wind up being needed at Shea.
I think Aaron, Wagner , Wise and Sanchez loom as huge. We have to demonstrate that the late innings will not be an achilles heel.
Walnutz15 January 30, 2008 at 6:40 pm
From Johan to a former teammate of mine….Ruddy Lugo (aka — Julio's brother) — what a difference a day makes…lol — j/k
I played with Ruddy in Brooklyn during the late 90's, and the fact that I just referenced "the late 90's" tells me that I'm getting old.
Probably a good move just to see if they have anything come Spring Training, and for minor league filler later on. But this kid can throw in the pen, provided any of our mainstays goes down at any point.
Stockpiling of arms…..Omar's M.O. — too bad they didn't do right by another Xaverian Clipper, Pedro Beato. That kid's looked pretty food in the O's system of late.
Regardless:
Mets claim RHP Lugo from Athletics
New York, NY (Sports Network) – The New York Mets claimed right-handed pitcher Ruddy Lugo off waivers from the Oakland Athletics on Wednesday.
Lugo was designated for assignment last Friday after the A's claimed outfielder Jeff Fiorentino off waivers from the Cincinnati Reds.
He went 4-0 with a 4.30 earned run average in 27 games over three stints with Oakland in 2007 and also had two wins and a 9.28 ERA in 11 games with Tampa Bay.
Lugo combined for a 6-0 record and a 5.40 ERA in 38 relief appearances overall. He walked 37 and struck out 34 in 48 1/3 innings.

"pretty food" — or pretty good, in normal language.
On that note, it's time for me to eat…I be starvin'.
sincekindergarten January 31, 2008 at 5:25 am
I'm wondering if we're going to see Willie juggle the rotation a bit, like Bobby Cox does whenever the Braves face the Mets. I'd be happy to see Johan and Pedro leading off most of the series against the Braves and Phillthies.

Mets closing in on six-year contract with Santana
Posted: Friday February 1, 2008 2:07PM;
By Jon Heyman, SI.com
Johan Santana and the Mets continue to make progress on a record-setting contract that is expected to make the two-time Cy Young winner a $150-million man, SI.com has learned. People with knowledge of the talks say they expect a deal to be completed by the 5 p.m. EST deadline.
Santana and the Mets are discussing a contract extension for six years that is expected to pay Santana close to $22 million a year, according to sources familiar with the talks. In addition, it is believed the Mets may add about $7 million to Santana's $13.25 million salary for 2008.
That expected new $20 million salary for '08, and the six additional years at $22 million, could bring Santana's total haul to $152 million. The previous record for a pitcher was Barry Zito's $126-million, seven-year deal signed last winter with the San Francisco Giants.
It is believed the players union has been pressing Santana's agents, Peter and Ed Greenberg, to beat the $150-million threshold, as Santana is setting the standard for pitchers and will likely affect the salaries of other top-of-the-line starters. The Mets, who originally hoped to keep the package to five additional years, have been hoping to keep the total compensation below $150 million…

A wonderful new addition to our office is Erin Tracy of Empower Wellness. Erin employs the mind-body-spirit practice of Qi Gong that improves one's mental and physical health by integrating posture, movement, breathing technique, self-massage, sound, and focused intent. Qi Gong opens the flow of energy in meridians used in acupuncture and Chinese medicine. It enhances our ability to feel the Life Force underlying the physical world and to deepen our communication with it as well.
Physically, slow gentle qigong movements warm tendons, ligaments, and muscles; tonify vital organs and connective tissue; and promote circulation of body fluids (blood, synovial, lymph). Qi Gong has been shown to be effective in helping to heal life challenges ranging from high blood pressure and chronic illness to emotional frustration, mental stress, and spiritual crisis. Medical Qi Gong therapy incorporates clinically-oriented Qi Gong with a certified professional which can focus on health maximization or a medical challenge.
Transforming core patterns that detox our mindsets and allow us to begin enjoying our life again even in the face of physical suffering.
Erin Tracy uses training in life coaching and mentoring as well as a background in the Chinese art of healing through improving the body's energy the therapy of Qi Gong to address long-standing chronic conditions and emotional stress. Ms. Tracy uses cognitive strategies, meditation techniques, and her training in medical Qi Gong to meet individuals where they are in one-to-one sessions.
Erin offers a 30 minute initial consultation at no charge after which sessions are 60 minutes at a rate of $95. Appointments are made directly with Erin.
A great way to learn more about Qi Gong is by attending one of Erin's free workshops at the Carolina Center. Please visit her web site for upcoming workshop dates.

Cook County wants to raise $33 million this year by boosting cigarette taxes 82 cents per pack, but it would accomplish something else: 59,522 people would quit smoking.
Decades of research shows that 4% of smokers will quit for every 10% rise in cigarette prices.
In Cook County, the proposed tax will raise the average price per pack to $4.97, a 19.8% increase. That translates into 7.9% fewer smokers. The effect on teenagers is greater, since they have less money to spend on cigarettes and are generally less dependent on nicotine.
The research takes into account that some smokers will cross state or county lines to avoid a tax. Although some are expected to shop in Indiana, Wisconsin or counties neighboring Cook, many won't go to the trouble.
"I am not going to tax myself looking for untaxed (cigarettes)," says Kristin Garcia, a 31-year-old non-profit program manager and smoker for 12 years. She smokes a half-pack of Marlboro Lights every day, paying $4.50 to $4.75 per pack. The tax will put her close to her self-imposed threshold for quitting: "I wouldn't pay $5.75."
"I want to quit and I need motivation," says Maria Flores, a 22-year-old DePaul University student who has been smoking since she was 14.
Phill Surowiak, a bartender at Boston Blackies on East Grand Avenue, is ready to quit as well. "If (the tax) goes into effect April 1, I will quit March 31," he says.
The Cook County Board will vote this week on ratifying the tax, which the board's Finance Committee passed by one vote earlier this month. Lobbyists for the tobacco industry argue that the tax will hurt retailers and the state's tax revenues if smokers go elsewhere for cigarettes. That's a view shared by tax opponents on the board, including Commissioner Forrest Claypool.
"All we are really doing is exporting jobs out of Cook County," he says.
There are currently 751,544 smokers in Cook County, according to the Illinois Department of Public Health.
The Cook County Department of Revenue predicts that an 82-cent hike in the cigarette tax would result in a 60% drop in cigarette sales, as people buy in neighboring counties or states. Still, the county would reap $33 million more in tax revenue in the remaining nine months of 2004, and $49 million more every year thereafter, according to the department.
The conclusion that 4% of smokers quit for every 10% increase in price is a consensus of health care economists who've studied the relationship between price and consumption in different states and countries. The research has been summarized by Frank Chaloupka, a University of Illinois at Chicago professor who has studied smoking and price for more than 17 years.
A spokesman for Richmond, Va.-based Philip Morris USA Inc., the nation's biggest cigarette maker, says he is "not going to dispute" the 4% theory. But he says the company believes easy access to cigarettes via the Internet and tax-free sales from Indian reservations have altered the relationship, though he won't say how much. In the early '80s, Philip Morris estimated that 2% of smokers would quit for every 10% price increase.


The world was fooled by a picture on social media…. yeah we've never heard that before.
After viewing a picture of music star Justin Bieber eating a burrito incorrectly, it began with a tweet and ended up becoming a social media talking point.
As we all reacted to this picture (including us here at Y102), turns out that it wasn't Justin Bieber at all. The photo was the prank by an organization called Yes Theory.
Peep the setup video from Yes, Theory.
You got us. Good one Yes Theory.


Before I dive into the Manchester posting I thought I would jump back to the present day (Manchester was like less than two weeks ago) and show you some of what I've been doing since I got back. Here is Davis Community Church, on 4th Street, sketched while squeezing the curving perspective lines to fit the image in. In truth I wasn't actually squeezing them – this is how they looked from where I was standing. As you get closer to a building those parallel perspective lines to curve more. I have wanted to redraw this building for a long time so this was a fun way to do so; after taking Paul Heaston's workshop in Manchester I realized I need to squeeze in those perspectives even more, to get the bigger picture. I had just gotten my hair cut (finally! it was too long while I was in Manchester, too long for me) and the weather was hot but not bad. My body was aching and tired still after my trip back, my back being still a bit stuff from the cramped journey across the Atlantic. Although I complain there's nothing left for me to draw in Davis, it's still nice getting back to the old familiar streets.
I really like this perspective technique you've got going on. It's reminiscent of panoramic photography – just without the children deliberately moving to turn themselves into mutants.

Q: Is it possible to set UIView's top relative to other UIView's height using AutoLayout? Is it possible to set UIView's top relative to other UIView's height using AutoLayout? In other words, I want to give a view different top values depending on height of screen size.
For example, I want a result of third one not second on the following image.

A: To achieve the result you are aiming, you can use a little "hack", adding three accessory UIView (with clear background):

*

*View #1 above the blue UIView, with a constraint = 0 to Top Layout Guide

*View #2 between the blue and purple views

*View #3 below the purple UIView, with a constraint = 0 to Bottom Layout Guide
Next, you need to add two other constraints, Equal Widths between Views #1 and #2, and between Views #2 and #3
Finally, you need to add Vertical Spacing constraints (= 0) between all the views, linking each view with the one below (or over). The key here is to lock those views between them, so that the vertical layout is not ambigous.
Now you can just add a specific height constraint to blue & purple view and they will stay in place, floating if screen size changes.

Note #1: Be sure to constraint these accessory views to the Main ViewController view, in order to center them & fit them to parent width
Note #2: If you don't know their height before, this solution will not work. You could try with some constraint set to Greater Than while playing with priorities but I didn't test it.

Q: Received NaN for the `children` attribute in React I am new in React and I am building a type racer app. I am at this stage where I want to calculate to WPM (Words per minute) but for some reason the calculation returns 'NaN'. I have checked, each variable has the correct value and there are no empty values at the time of calculation.
Some pictures:

And here is the code for the App.js:
import React from 'react';
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import './App.css';
import getTime from './CurrentTime.js';

const App = () => {

const [typeracertext, setTyperacertext] = useState("My name is Ruslan. ");
const [userText, setUserText] = useState("");
const [wholeText, setWholeText] = useState("");
const [startTyping, setStartTyping] = useState("");
const [endTyping, setEndTyping] = useState("");
var [countWords, setCountWords] = useState(0);

const wordsPerMinute = (startTime, endTime, words) => {
    return 60 / ({endTime} - {startTime}) * words
}

const onChange = (e) => {
    if (wholeText === "")
    {
        setStartTyping(getTime.getTime);
    }
    if (typeracertext.substring(0, wholeText.length+1).slice(-1) === e.target.value.slice(-1))
    {
        setUserText(e.target.value);
        e.target.style.color = 'black';
        if (typeracertext.substring(0, wholeText.length+1).slice(-1) === " ")
        {
             e.target.value = "";
             setWholeText(wholeText + " ");
             setCountWords(countWords + 1);
        }

        else
        {
            setWholeText(wholeText + ((e.target.value).slice(-1)));
        }
    }

    else
    {
        e.target.style.color = 'red';
    }

    if (wholeText === typeracertext.substring(0, typeracertext.length-2))
    {
        setEndTyping(getTime.getTime);
        e.target.value = "";
    }
};

return (

        {wholeText}{typeracertext.substring(wholeText.length, typeracertext.length)}

        {endTyping != "" &&
        {wordsPerMinute(startTyping, endTyping, countWords)}}

);
}

export default App;

and the code for CurrentTime.js
import React from 'react';

const getTime = () => {
    const current = new Date();
      return(current.getHours()*60*60 + current.getMinutes()*60 + current.getSeconds());
}

export default {getTime};

EDIT: Here are also a proof that the values were passed:

A: You are not calling gettime in your set state. You are only pointing towards it
setStartTyping(getTime.getTime())

and
setEndTyping(getTime.getTime())

And why starttime and endtime are wrapped in {}. They are plain numbers.
Maybe you can do directly
const wordsPerMinute = (startTime, endTime, words) => {
    return 60 / (endTime - startTime) * words
}


Fanney Khan is someone who is known to entertain the people around him yet ironically the movies does the exact opposite. Prashant Sharma aka Fanney Khan (Anil Kapoor), an orchestra player from 90s, has this dream of making his daughter Lata Sharma (Pihu Sand) a big singer. Her fate was decided as and when she was born. "What I couldn't do, my daughter will." Fanney tries hard in launching the first song of his daughter.
He kidnaps Baby Singh (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan), a famous singer, in order to extort some money from her. Baby Singh, doesn't just has a weird name, she dances weirdly too. In this process, Fanney's colleague and best friend, Adhir (Rajkummar Rao) falls for Baby Singh and the story takes another unwanted twist. Where will this incident lead the future of Lata, is what the remaining story is about.
Anil Kapoor is very good! He's someone, who even after playing his age couldn't convince that he's of the same age. As never-aging as Tom Cruise, Anil Kapoor perfectly portrays the role of a concerned father but unfortunately he could've done more. Rajkummar Rao is under-used in the film. We have see the kind of wonders he can do to the story but he get's sidelined by a tedious story.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan should now smarty choose what she wants to do next. After Jazbaa and Sarabjit, this is her third miss. Her character has no meat or scope for the actress to do anything. She's in the movie just for the sake, so are the other actors apart from Anil Kapoor. Pihu Sand has acted well but the problem is character is very shabbily written. She gets annoying after a point instead of attracting the connect. She is good in the climax but by then one will lose the interest. Divya Dutta is good with the screen space she gets. She has already proven to be a good actress but I wish her character should have had more depth.

Phi Delta Chi is committed to raising funds and awareness for worthy causes. One of the most notable causes the fraternity is involved with is St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Since 1995, Chapters and Brothers of Phi Delta Chi have raised funds for St. Jude through various means. In August 2007, the Fraternity expanded support of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital using a targeted letter-writing campaign called The Prescription for Hope. Through this campaign, the Fraternity pledged to raise $200,000 over 4 years. In April 2009, Phi Delta Chi surpassed this goal within just 2 years! Upon completion of this commitment, the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's outpatient pharmacy located on the first floor of the Patient Care Center was named in gratitude of Phi Delta Chi. Most recently, the 67th Grand Council voted to continue their support of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital through The Prescription for Hope fundraising campaign.
Pharmacist's Letter and their new Pharmacy Technicians University continue their commitment of a $20,000 matching donation to St. Jude on behalf of Phi Delta Chi.
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital hosted the strategic planning retreat for the Executive Council and Regional Officers in Memphis, Tennessee this past October. During this retreat, Phi Delta Chi Brothers enjoyed lunch with a St. Jude patient family to see firsthand how the money Phi Delta Chi fundraises benefits patients and their families. It was a very powerful experience to see how the support from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital extends beyond diagnosis and treatment to caring for the whole patient. Brothers were given a tour and were shown the outpatient pharmacy located on the first floor of the Patient Care Center that was named in gratitude of Phi Delta Chi. The plaque adjacent to the pharmacy pick-up window reads, "IN GRATITUDE TO PHI DELTA CHI PHARMACY FRATERNITY FOR THEIR DEDICATION AND SUPPORT OF ST. JUDE AND ITS PHARMACY PROGRAM." This pharmacy is located near the outpatient treatment registration area where approximately 200 patients are treated each day.
Thank you for your support of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital! Click HERE to view the 2010 Phi Delta Chi Prescription for Hope video.

Here's an unusual early jet-age choice from Hong Kong's Dragon, a 1:72 scale de Havilland Sea Vixen FAW1. Coming so soon after the 1:48 scale kit from Airfix, does this one measure up to that bigger kit?
The box includes one transparent set of components and four runners for the remainder, all of which are moulded in plain grey. Two decal sheets give a choice of markings for six Royal Navy aircraft. There's a clear set of instructions, with paint and marking guides. It's all neatly packed, and the parts look crisp and sharply moulded.
Of particular note are the canopy and hatch to the observer's 'coal hole'. Both items are thin and clear, though you will have some careful masking to do when it's painting time.
If you wish to have the ventral airbrake open, you will have to cut a hole and add a blank inside the fuselage as Dragon have not included the brake's internal bay. That's odd, because the same features for the undercarriage are done nicely, so maybe a bunch of Dragon craftsmen were out at lunch when it came to that particular detail. However, they were back in the office when it came to the pop-up APU Auxiliary Power Unit (pix above) which will make an unusual talking point if you choose to show it in the deployed position.
You can hang a pair of Matra rocket pods and two fuel tanks under the wings. Red Top missiles are included, though there are no instructions for fitting them. My encyclopedia says that the FAW1 carried the earlier Firestreak missile, but the supplied Red Tops would look excellent if you wish to cheat! It's worth mentioning that detail in the wing-folds is carefully done, and will look terrific when it comes to adding some weathering after the paintwork is done.
Looking closely, the ejection seats seem somewhat on the small side - the pilot in particular would barely poke his nose above the canopy side frame if he had Dragon's seat in the cockpit. On the upside, it's unlikely either seat will look too wrong when canopy and hatch are in place, especially as crew figures are not supplied.
Compared with the bigger Airfix release, this kit stands up well in most areas, and for the 1:72 scale modelmaker the Dragon is now top choice.
The Dragon Sea Vixen is arriving soon; meantime, the 1:48 Airfix Sea Vixen is available here.
Here are some pix of the later FAW2 version, which maybe Dragon will see fit to release sometime soon. Certainly those Red Top missiles will be correct!
