already tonight in tunisia, there's a movement that wants to emulate this. when the arab spring began, it was students. it was generally secular people using information technology that took to the streets. they were disorganized. they were politically inexperienced, and they lost power to the islamic groups, which because of years of operating, hiding from the military, hiding from authoritarian states, were very effective at organizing themselves. the islamic groups not just here in egypt but across the region managed to seize power through the ballot box. this could be the start of a change, a change in egypt, a change in tunisia, maybe even a change in turkey, a change in many countries around the world. if egypt after today is a success and not the failure that it was under the muslim brotherhood, then it could be a success that other new governments, new arab spring transitional governments seek to emulate. >> richard, the unemployment rate in egypt is now over 13.5%. that's 3.5 million people who aren't working. perhaps more than that. if that doesn't

When you ask someone what they would do if money was no object and they didn't have to work, tend to one they'll say that they want to travel. Young Adults and College students are no different. We seem to have this desire to explore the world and all of it's varying cultures.
There are two main things that stop people from traveling, they don't have time and it's too expensive. Well I'm here to tell you that neither of these are true. It may seem impossible, but by setting goals and staying focused traveling is an easy feat. First things first, pick a place. Secondly, set a budget and start saving. This could be as simple as saying you want to go to Florida and you're going to save up change in a coffee tin.
Traveling is extremely important no matter what kind of income you have and what age you are. To experience the world wonders you have to take a leap of faith and enjoy every minute of it. Building a bucket list is exciting and crossing something off of it is exhilarating. You can find my bucket list here for some ideas!
Below I will be sharing with you how and why you should be traveling right now! Traveling while your young has countless benefits. Here are a few tips to help you explore the world and a few reasons why you need to travel!
1. Get a part-time job or learn how to side-hustle.
Having that extra income is beneficial. But if you don't have the time or are trying to focus on college side hustling is also an option! Here is a great resource to learn about side-hustling and how to make money doing it! Take a small part of your income from your part-time job or all of your money from side-hustling and put that towards your travel savings.
2. Visit in the off-season.
Purchasing flights and hotels is often cheaper if you visit in the offseason. The weather might not always be ideal, but you'll still be gaining the same great experience. Plus, all the touristy areas won't be as busy!
Traveling with friends means splitting the bill. Sit down and setup a budget together that way your both on the same page about everything! You'll also be sharing an amazing experience with your bestie that you'll never forget.
1. Investing in travel is just like investing in education.
Great experiences require an investment. You invest in education to better yourself and to gain new skills. Traveling is exactly the same. You need to invest in traveling in order to better yourself and gain a new understanding of the world. There is so much to learn from this world; visit historical monuments or national parks both hold a wealth of information. No matter where you go you will ALWAYS learn something!
2. You're young enough to be adventurous, but old enough to enjoy the world to it's full potential.
At this point in your life you have a good understanding of the world and are willing to try new and exciting things. You'll get to experience the world and all of its cultures from a wonderful point of view. You will go into traveling with an open mind and an open heart ready to absorb the world.
3. You have very few responsibilities at home.
Specifically if your in college, you don't have a job back home nor a family that relies on you. You are essentially limitless. There are no BIG responsibilities back home waiting for you. You have the chance to go on adventures and not have to worry about life at home.
4. You will find yourself along the way.
You will gain a better understanding of yourself. Traveling allows you to explore the world and with that you explore yourself. You haven't fully developed into the person you'll be, people are always changing. Take this opportunity to be affected by the different cultures of the world.


New Zealand-based storage start-up Nyriad has teamed up with Netlist and HPC Systems to develop a Linux storage platform accelerated by GPUs and NVDIMMs.
The foundation of the platform is Nyriad's NSULATE technology, which uses a GPU to perform the processing typically done by a RAID controller in large storage arrays. According to the company, it uses superior number-crunching capacity of a GPU to "generate parity calculations to enable automatic data recovery on scales impossible with a RAID card or a CPU." The claim is that NSULATE can deal with dozens of simultaneous device failures in real-time, while maintaining I/O performance.
The technology was spun out of the Square Kilometre Array project, a multi-billion dollar effort to construct the world's largest radio telescope. In its first phase, the project will have to deal with raw radio data streaming into computers at the rate of 160 terabytes per second. That level of I/O and the speed at which computation will need to process it was the inspiration for Nyriad and what would become the NSULATE technology.
In this latest solution, the NSULATE technology is combined with Netlist's NVvault non-volatile DIMMs (NVDIMMs) to create a Linux storage platform that can scale to millions of IOPs. These NVDIMMs use a combination of DDR4 DRAM and NAND flash to achieve both speed and nonvolatility in a DDR4-compliant package. According to Nyriad Chief Technology Officer Alex St. John, the NVvault NVDIMMs allow data can be directly shuttled to the GPU for storage processing, bypassing the Linux kernel and thus delivering better performance.
Although no product has yet been announced for the Nyriad-Netlist combo, the intention here is to deliver a solution to market using HPC Systems, a Japanese systems integrator targeting the small-to-mid-range HPC market. The company specializes in GPU-accelerated solutions and has aspirations to extend its customer base worldwide.

Q: How to import Dates from excel into R? I am trying to create a time series plot in R based on data from a .csv file converted from an Excel file. But I'm having a few issues when reading it into R.
Firstly, when I input the date into Excel I'm using the format of m/d/yyyy H:M:S (for example: 6/5/2017 20:15:00). But when I hit return, after entering each date, Excel formats it to short date. This displays the the date as m/d/yyyy and doesn't display the time in the columns. So when I import the .csv into R I get the following:
>head(Data)
Date        Value
6/4/2017    180
6/4/2017    300
6/4/2017    120
6/4/2017    340
6/5/2017    300

I have tried reformatting the Date column by following this other stack overflow post... but I just end up with a column of NA's for Date.
I have also tried converting the dates to numeric in Excel, by following this R-Blogges guide and importing them into R that way... but I still end up with only m/d/yyyy in R and no times!
As my dataset is clustered around only a few days, the time variable is the important factor when producing the time series. Any suggestions as to how I'd fix this?

Is the McCain-Palin Campaign Violating Operational Security?
If the McCain-Palin campaign has disclosed details about Track Palin's company's movements to gain press about it, they will have put many American lives in danger -- not the least of which would be Track's.
Jon Soltz, Contributor
Iraq War Veteran, Chairman VoteVets.org
Oct 4, 2008, 05:12 AM EDT | Updated Dec 6, 2017
When Sarah Palin was announced as John McCain's Vice Presidential pick, I found it a little disturbing that she told the public that her oldest son, Track, would be deploying to Iraq on September 11. Generally, disclosing the date of deployment is against Operational Security (OPSEC) and illegal.
Calling around to a couple of Public Affairs Officers (PAO) who would be handling the flow of information about Track and his unit, VoteVets.org found out that, first, Track is not deploying on September 11. He may be part of a deployment ceremony that day, before going to Kuwait, though one Public Affairs Officer said that any details of the upcoming ceremony hadn't been made public yet by the military.
Governor Palin may have spilled the beans on that one, while showing she doesn't know the difference between a soldier deploying to Iraq vs. one preparing to deploy to Iraq. And while not illegal, if she really did believe that's when he's deploying to Iraq, then she didn't know enough to keep quiet about that to keep from violating OPSEC -- something a potential Commander in Chief should know.
But, more disturbing, and definitely in violation of security, are an explosion of stories that say specifically where in Iraq Track is deploying to, which have been dutifully eaten up by right wing websites, and reprinted. I will not reprint it here, because I would only be compounding the issue. But, unfortunately, it is very easy to find on the web at this point.
It is simply impossible that any reporter could figure this out on their own. Just by knowing Track's name and the date he is heading to Kuwait, one could not figure out specifically where Track and his company would be going in Iraq. There's a reason it's impossible to figure that out -- because the military doesn't want that information out there. It only serves to aid the enemy to know where are troops are moving.
Did the Pentagon release that information to the press?
No, according to another PAO that VoteVets.org talked with. In fact, this PAO said, the military was actively trying to quash this story, and keep reporters from repeating all these details, because it was a clear OPSEC violation. The PAO was adamant that the military has no idea how these details got out there and doesn't want them out there.
So where is this information coming from, if not the military? Certainly not the Obama campaign, which would not gain anything by promoting Track's service. The only people who I can think of would be those in the McCain-Palin campaign.
If the McCain-Palin campaign has disclosed details about Track's company's movements to gain stories in the press about it, they will have put many American lives in danger -- not the least of which would be Track's.
Senator McCain and Governor Palin need to immediately find out if someone in the campaign violated OPSEC by giving a reporter these details, and if they did, the campaign needs to find out where the source got this information from. Whoever that is, is in it deep.

There's a lot of irrelevants in the circus

McMasters, Comey, and the Trump Endgame
The fake king at the end of days
There are two ways that the Trump Presidency could end.
OK, that's not true. There are many, many ways the Trump Presidency could end, including relatively normally. But that seems impossible, because we've elected a spoiled, ignorant, dauphin to become the most powerful person in the world. We've elected someone who is, without a doubt, in the bottom 10% of people in this country who should be President. You pull nearly anyone off the street, and the wouldn't be as implusive, reckless, and vainglorious. They wouldn't be as poor a manager or judge of people, and they wouldn't let their ego overtake every affair. I'm not saying most people would be good Presidents (I'd be terrible), but few would be this bad.
And because of that, there are right now two paths that stand out among many, both with terrible repercussions.
The more straightforward one is that with the firing of Comey and the purported memo we're pretty clearly in an Obstruction of Justice phase. Even Republicans are beginning to come around. Vulnerable ones in Illinois, like Adam Kinzinger, are calling for independent prosecutors, and others are just hiding. They feel the worm turning. Paul Ryan hasn't come up for air in days, as he basically wants to avoid the parts of his job that don't involve starving people.
The main counterargument, as Ross Douthat, of all people, points out, is that Trump probably is too stupid to even know he was obstructing justice. He was just asking Comey to do him a solid, lean on him a little bit, etc. No biggie. (Douthat thinks this is true, but says it proves Trump's manifest unfitness for office).
Now, it is true that obstruction of justice is hard to prove, and it is true that there are enough emotional Trump supporters that the GOP might be scared of offending. They might duck behind the incredibly cynical "oh, so now you like Comey" ploy, as if (not actual!) hypocrisy by Democrats is an absolution for actual crimes. There will be a lot of wrangling as Republicans deal with the full scope of their moral failure, their irrational hatred for Hillary Clinton, their insane partisanship, and most of all, placing their desire to throw millions off health care and cut taxes for the rich over the needs of the Republic.
Will they be able to own up to it? If so, expect a lot of talk of their courage and bravery (mostly self-praise), and the nauseating spectacle of their "rising above partisanship". A Trump impeachement will unleash all the howling anger that is already shaking this country, and they shouldn't get praise for stopping, too late, a beast they helped create. But we'll deal with that when we get to it if, hopefully, we do.
There is a worse scenario, here, and that involves H.R. McMaster, who has long been one of the most respected people in America, and certainly in the military, but who has been tainted and corrupted by proximity to Trump, as is inevitable. Fred Kaplan captures the sadness of McMaster standing up for Trump, in a statement that is mostly a lie, at best an evasion, and in a way, aiding and abetting our deranged king. There is a part in Kaplan that truly stands out.
At the same time, he is still an active-duty officer, duty-bound to obey all legal orders from his commander in chief and perhaps inclined to regard him with respect. Will he remain conscious of the tension between his obligations and his character, asserting the latter whenever opportunities arise? Or will the former subsume all else?
That's very true. McMaster is active duty, and sworn to civilian primacy. That's the founding genius of our nation. But what happens if Trump, facing impeachement and disgrace, orders the military to do something terrible and drastic? What if he tries to bind it to him, instead of the country. In August, I argued that such behavior was the primary danger of electing Donald Trump.
Unlike in Turkey, the armed forces here take pride in the fact that they don't need to guarantee democracy through domestic force; indeed, the fact that they don't is why our democracy works as well as it does. But if an order is illegal, and insanely so, what then? Do they refuse the order and go against the basis of their existence? Do they do something illegal, which is also a betrayal of their values, because then it means that the military isn't loyal to the US, but just its temporary and titular head? What happens? Which betrayal is worse? And at what point do they enact the ultimate betrayal in the name of the country: that is, a legitimate overthrowing of civilian power?…
The crisis can come because Donald Trump is a fascist, and think he can and should rule like one. He has no respect for the rule of law, and believes that everything is his toy, and should be used for his greater glory. He feels that civilian control of the military means that they should be loyal to him. That's not what we are about. The result of this collision is impossible to know. But if he is elected, you can be sure it is coming, and it will be unlike any crisis we've faced since the Civil War.
McMaster obviously isn't in charge of the military, but he is key to this. How long do they stay loyal? Are there mass resignations? Or do they actually betray one duty to uphold another? This is the most terrifying endgame for Trump, and it is far from outside the realm of possibility. It's what we might be facing. It's the question that will get hot as the summer starts to boil and the temper of our President reaches rageful and spiteful tantrumic heights: what will the military do?
That we are even asking that is reason why every politician who supported Trump should be disgraced, forever.

Australia opening new Bangalore consulate; centre to boost tech ties with India
BANGALORE -- Australia is to establish a new consulate in Bangalore and to set up a centre of excellence for critical and emerging technology policy in India as part of efforts to drive the technology partnership between the two countries.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison unveiled Australia's plans during a virtual address to the Bengaluru Tech Summit, saying technology is at the forefront of the comprehensive strategic partnership he signed with Prime Minister Narendra Modi last year.
The new consulate would focus on deepening Australia's ties with "India's vibrant innovators, technologists and entrepreneurs" and support Australian businesses in "one of the world's most important commercial centres", Australia's Foreign Minister, Marise Payne, said.
The new centre of excellence would elevate co-operation under an existing cyber and critical technology partnership and bring together Australian and Indian technologists, policy practitioners, academics, researchers and thought leaders, she said.
Bangalore, officially known as Bengaluru, is the capital and the largest city of the Indian state of Karnataka. It has a population of more than 8 million.

Cher Can't Believe Bernie Sanders Wants Terrorists and Murderers to Vote
Steven Ahle April 24, 2019
Cher had better watch out as she could become an outcast to the Democrat party. Her reaction to two recent stories were downright….conservative. The truth is that she came to the right conclusion on illegal immigration.
Saying we shouldn\'t be taking in migrants when we aren\'t taking care of the homeless. Her latest protest against Democratic policy is the fact that Bernie Sanders says that every person in prison should be allowed to vote, including the Boston Bomber. How badly does President Trump want to run against Bernie?
Later in the day, Kamala Harris said we need to look at allowing inmates to vote, no matter the crime.
From Breitbart News
Pop icon Cher questioned the wisdom of Sen. Bernie Sanders' (I-VT) recent declaration that felons, even terrorists, should have the right to vote.
"Does Bernie Sanders Really Believe Ppl In Prison Who Are Murderers⁉ Rapists⁉ Child Molesters⁉ BOSTON BOMBERS.…STILL DESERVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE⁉" Cher asked in a social media post Tuesday.
Bernie Sanders voiced his belief that felons should not be deprived of a right to vote earlier this month. During a CNN town hall Monday night, Sanders was again asked about his position by host Don Lemon.
"Yes, even for terrible people because once you start chipping away — you say, 'That guy committed a terrible crime, we're not going to let him vote,' or 'that person did that,' you're running down a slippery slope," the socialist candidate said. "So, I believe people who commit crimes, they pay the price and they get out of jail, they certainly should have the right to vote…I believe even if they are in jail, they're paying the price to society, but that should not take away their inherent American right to participate in our democracy."
Cher's political opinions are usually that of a typical Hollywood liberal, and she has frequently shared deranged fantasies like President Donald Trump being placed in a "straight jacket."

The Princeton National Rowing Association is committed to providing a safe environment where all athletes can participate and thrive in the sport of rowing. Toward that end, we have established policies and procedures for governing and reporting inappropriate and unsafe behavior.
PNRA was an early adopter of a Safety Policy designed to protect our athletes from physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, hazing, bullying, and other misconduct. It is in fact a policy closely modeled on one developed by experts at the United States Olympic Committee (now the U.S. Center for SafeSport).
Link to PNRA's SafeSport Policy.
Link to PNRA's Workplace Anti-Harassment Policy.
For these policies to be most effective, it is particularly important that athletes, parents and employees feel comfortable reporting such inappropriate and unsafe behavior. Ideally, these complaints should be reported immediately to PNRA Executive Director, PNRA's Safeguarding Officer or a member of the PNRA's Board of Directors (contact information below) We understand that sometimes this is not possible. That is why we have established an anonymous reporting hotline.
The hotline is operated by a third-party vendor, Lighthouse, and is available 24 hour a day, 7 days per week.

Q: Copying directory from jar to the local folder I have Jar file which includes besides classes - folder with files.
When i run a jar file on the other machine - the aim is to copy files from jar to some folder in that machine.
Structure of jar:
/somepackage/
/MyFolder/

in code i do something like this:
copyDirectory("MyFolder", System.getProperty("user.home") + "\\myFolder");
it works only when i start program, but not outside jar.
Please help me to do it.

A: You could either manually copy the data out, or, if the data is read-only, just access it directly when needed (simplifying your runtime requirements).
In either case, you'd need to read the contents in the jar file: How do I read a resource file from a Java jar file?
If you really prefer having things in a local directory, you will need to iterate over all the files you care to have moved out and place them on the disk yourself.

Medical Information Technology Coordinator named
Robert Mirabal performs Oct. 25
Native American Artist Robert Mirabal will perform on Thursday, October 25, at 7 p.m. at HCTC First Federal Center as part of HCTC s Greater Hazard Area Performing Arts Series.
Two-time GRAMMY Award winner Robert Mirabal lives with his family at the foot of the sacred Taos Mountain in northern New Mexico. Maintaining a traditional life and keeping the centuries-old customs of the Taos Pueblo people, Robert has been described as a Native American Renaissance Man - musician, composer, painter, master craftsman, poet, actor, screenwriter, horseman and farmer - and he travels extensively playing his music all over the world. His dozen albums of traditional music, rock and roll, and spoken word present a contemporary view of American Indian life that is unequaled.
My music is informed by the ceremonial music that I've heard all my life. What I create comes out of my body and soul in a desire to take care of the spirits of the earth. A leading proponent of world music, Robert has merged his indigenous American sound with those of Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean, tapping into a planetary pulse with a style that defies categorization. My travels have provided me with experiences that I could have never imagined, and exposed me to a global sound and a global voice.
Whether as a composer, songwriter, or musician, Robert has won many honors including two-time Native American Artist of the Year, three-time Songwriter of the Year, a 2006 GRAMMY Award for Sacred Ground, and his 2008 GRAMMY Award for Johnny Whitehorse Totemic Flute Chants, blending all of Robert's influences into a musical landscape that conjures up both the historic and contemporary West. This will be evident in this unique performance that includes a full band and dancers that will transport audience members with a multi-sensory concert experience unlike any other. Robert Mirabal will also be available to conduct workshops in area schools for any grade level and a matinee performance for area schools to attend will also be scheduled. Area schools interested in having a workshop or attending a matinee school performance should contact the performing arts office for the Arts Education Schedule and more information.
The event sponsor is Hyden Citizens Bank. Series grand benefactors are: Whitaker Bank, Peoples Bank and Trust, Perry Distributors, Pine Branch Coal Sales, Hazard Lions Club, and City of Hazard Mayor Nan Gorman. This performance is funded in part by a grant from South Arts in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts and the Kentucky Arts Council. The Foundation for Appalachian Kentucky and the Steele-Reese Foundation are also providing support this season.
Admission is $15 for adults and $8 for students.
For more information, contact Tammy.Duff@kctcs.edu, performing arts series director, at 606-487-3067 or 800-246-7521 ext. 73067.

Is Lifetime Employment System In Japan Waning?
July 5, 2016 September 20, 2010 by Affleap
For decades, the standard career path in Japan was to graduate from college, join a company and stay working there until retirement, in short, it's one job for life.
However, the lifetime employment system in Japan is waning with the bursting of an economic bubble in 1991.
With salaries down more than 12 percent over the last decade amid an uncertain labor market, young mostly single Japanese are increasingly making ends meet by working second or even third jobs.
Despite long working hours, the eight longest in the world, though overtime often going unreported and unpaid, almost half of the workers questioned last year in a survey by the government affiliated Japan Institute for Labor Policy and Training expressed interest in side jobs.
Nearly 90 percent said the main reason was a desire to have an extra spending money. The unemployment rate in Japan was 5.2 percent in July, while it is low by international standards it is close to a record high for Japan.
The economy remains stagnant, weighed down by an aging and shrinking population, deflation and a strong yen which crimps exports.
According to the National Tax Agency of Japan, average annual salaries for Japanese workers in their early 20's fell from US $33,635 dollars in 1997 compared to US $29,470 dollars in 2008.
Recent data from the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare found that almost 56 percent of workers 15 to 34 years old needed another form of income to help pay living expenses.
Disposable income have taken a further hit since the global downturn, with many companies banning paid overtime to save money.
Yoshihiko Noda, Japan's finance minister said, that the time had come for Japan to take action that would allow "Young people to have dreams and get jobs"
For that to happen, the country may have to help foster entrepreneurship which has often seemed lacking in Japan. But those with side jobs may offer a glimpse of hope.

Paris Hilton Has Agreed To Plead Guilty


I've been such an admirer of Brooklyn designer Ilana Kohn's pieces for as long as I can remember and I think her new AW17 collection just might be my favorite. Shades of brown, yellow, and navy are right up my alley— especially together, mixed in with my ivory and white staples of course! So I was really excited to collaborate with one of my favorite shops, Fuggiamo, to style a dress AND offer 10% off anything in her shop this weekend with the code MELISSA. Happy shopping!
