Seahawks' lingering offseason questions: Are there still free-agent options for Seattle?
UPDATED: Tue., June 16, 2020
In this Dec. 8, 2019 photo, Minnesota Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen gets set for a play during the second half of an NFL football game against the Detroit Lions in Minneapolis. Griffen had eight sacks last year for the Vikings. (Associated Press)
By Bob Condotta Seattle Times
What's been an offseason unlike any other in the NFL's 100-year history now heads into a summer featuring as much uncertainty as any other in NFL history.
The Seahawks are among the teams finishing up their official offseason programs this week, one that has had to be conducted virtually due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
After a few last meetings over the next few days the Seahawks will take their official summer break, with players off until late July for the start of training camp.
That's the hope, anyway, that the league and the Players Association will be able to figure out how to work around COVID-19 issues to conduct the season as regularly scheduled.
As the Seahawks break for the summer, it's time to review five questions that will linger into the offseason.
I'll address one a day for the next five days.
And while how the season might look might be the most important (we'll get to that later) we'll start with one that is always pretty obvious: Are there any remaining free agents that the Seahawks could sign?
Well, there's one really obvious one, but there are a few others, as well.
So here's a list of some of the top remaining free agents and a brief assessment of their potential fit as a Seahawk.
DE Jadeveon Clowney: Because I'm going to write more about Clowney in a later part of this series I'll keep it brief here. Yes, Clowney remains available. Yes, Seattle is leaving the door open. No, he won't get the $15-17 million from Seattle he initially wanted. But yes, he might take less than that to come back for a year if it's basically his best offer and also what he feels might be the best place to take a one-year deal to try to set himself up for a longer-term deal a year from now.
WR Antonio Brown: Brown sort of quietly pleaded no contest to a battery charge in Florida on Friday and received two years' probation, clearing up at least one question about his future. But the NFL is still considering if he will be suspended in connection with a few incidents, including an allegation of sexual assault. Which means he's probably not signing with anyone anytime soon. But if he does become available, the Seahawks will undoubtedly take a look.
WR Josh Gordon: Gordon also remains in limbo, having been indefinitely suspended by the NFL last December for violations of the league's policies on both PEDs and substances of abuse. There's no real timeline for when the NFL makes such decisions, but sometime before training camp would seem logical to clear it up for all involved. The Seahawks are known to be willing to give Gordon another shot, and Gordon would undoubtedly be interested in returning. But the question — as with Brown — is how many more games for which he might get suspended. He's served four games, which would fulfill the PED suspension, but the NFL could add more for the other violation.
DE Everson Griffen: Griffen, who had eight sacks last year for the Vikings, might be the second-best defensive end still available after Clowney. That he played at USC for Pete Carroll led to speculation he'd be interested in signing with Seattle when he became available in February. Griffen, though, has been reported as hoping to make visits to teams before signing. He has spent his entire 10-year NFL career with Minnesota. Such trips haven't been available, but could be by the time camp rolls around. It's also been thought that some teams might be waiting to see what Clowney does before moving on to Griffen. It won't be a surprise if both sign with teams right as camp begins.
DT Damon "Snacks" Harrison: The 31-year-old Harrison said at the end of last season with Detroit he was considering retiring. But now a free agent, he's thought willing to play again. At 6-3, 350 he would undoubtedly fill the "run-stuffing" defensive-tackle role that the Seahawks crave, and at which they have no one with any significant experience aside from starting nose tackle Poona Ford and defensive tackle Jarran Reed. Seattle, though, could wait until a week or two into camp to see what it has in younger players such as Bryan Mone and Demarcus Christmas before making any decision.
DT Tim Jernigan: Jernigan, 27, had agreed to a one-year deal worth up to $3.25 million with Houston. But that deal fell apart a few weeks ago in what was reported by NFL.com as a mutual decision. Jernigan played just 10 games last year due to a foot issue, but a report by the Houston Chronicle stated he has been cleared physically. The 6-2, 295-pounder will be an intriguing, and possibly pretty low-cost at this point, pickup for someone.
DT Mike Daniels: Yep, there's a theme here as it makes sense to think if Seattle targets any specific position among the free agents still available it'd be defensive linemen. Daniels, 31, played just nine games last season with Detroit due to foot and arm injuries (the latter of which put him on Injured Reserve). But he played well in a late-season loss to the Vikings before going on IR and he's another vet that some team will undoubtedly snap up at some point as camp begins.
The Seahawks don't have an abundance of cap space, listed at $13.9 million by OvertheCap.com, and still need to sign six more of their draft picks while also keeping some on hand for Injured Reserve and other in-season needs.
But there's enough there to make another signing or two – and cap space can always be created if really desired – and the Seahawks figure to do so at some point.

ACTOR MAYANK SHEKHAR'S NEW SONG SWAG DI SAWARI RELEASED ON 20TH DECEMBER, 2019
Posted by admin on Dec 23, 2019 in Actors | Comments Off on ACTOR MAYANK SHEKHAR'S NEW SONG SWAG DI SAWARI RELEASED ON 20TH DECEMBER, 2019
Music On- Vibe Music
"I want to be a full paisa vasool actor who can make audience say kya hero hai" says Mayank Shekhar" Hailing from Ranchi Jharkhand, Mayank who is slaying in his recent music video "SWAG DI SAWARI" opposite Riya Kishanchandani; Produced by Shashank Thakur; Composed & sung by Tirtharaj Gandhavi & Rapped by Gaurav Meena.
Talking about his song, Mayank said "Party season is on & Swag Di Sawari is our special offering to fans worldwide to enhance their party mood. Truly peppy and lively in its best sense we bet the song will be a part of your party playlist"
Insisting that his foray into the world of performing arts was not a flash-in-the-pan decision, Mayank says that it's his passion & love for the craft of acting which is the prime factor that attracts him to be a part of Bollywood "I came to Mumbai in 2016 & ever since I can remember, acting has not been a dream, it has been an obsession. It has always been about the role of hero for me. You know what's the best part of acting , you become a different person, a different soul. Isn't it beautiful?"
On his journey to pursue his dreams, he spelled his brilliance in the show titled Return of School Days (2018) where he played the role of Abhishek Mukherjee, a much loved & popular character amongst the audience . He also did a television show Ankhee (2016) on Zoom Channel which gave him broader fan base.
Blame his appealing looks, the upfront ambitious actor has triumphed upon the hearts of millions working in print campaigns for elite brands like Reebok (2017), Casio Mens Watch & many more.
While Mayank poses all the elements to slip into any character with a lot of ease, he awaits good projects which will help bring out the actor in him and be the next big things in the industry.

His upcoming projects include Web series on Netflix in 2020.


Rumours about exchanges being shut down in South East Asia and regulatory restrictions have affected cryptocurrency markets and seen prices fall. Does this make it the best time to invest in them?
Headlines about cryptocurrency have filled the news for months and helped fuel price increases in Bitcoin and others virtual coins.
While plenty acted quickly and got in on cryptocurrency, many other potential investors have cautiously considering held back. They feared the opportunity had gone when Bitcoin reached $20,000 and others like Ethereum and Ripple started making big gains.
For More Detail : Is this the best time to get into cryptocurrency?
The classic counter argument is that the same could be said about gold. The difference however is that the yellow metal stood the test of time as a store of value since the beginning of recorded human history. Bitcoin, Hofrichter seems to claim, will never have that standing.
We would point out that Hofrichter maintains the view that Bitcoin is in a bubble even after the cryptocurrency has more than halved its value since its December 17 all-time high, right under $20,000.
Cryptocurrency is interesting. Its value has gone a long way. FreshForex offers bitcoin trading as well. It's reliable and safe! It's time now for you to try the crypto craze!
In my view, IF you are doing trading in Cryptocurrencies, then there is no bad time for it. IF you have the skills and IF you are willing to execute it all accurately, then you are always going to perform. But IF you don't work with proper plans then you are going to struggle a lot. I go for FreshForex, it's awesome with allowing one to trade everything including Cryptocurrencies. But that's that, there is even mighty 101% Tradable deposit bonus, which is the BEST possible way for beginner to work through.

Here's what led John Kelly to call Liz Warren an 'impolite arrogant woman
Senator Elizabeth Warren angrily rebuked White House chief of staff John Kelly after it was revealed that he called her an "impolite arrogant woman" in an email after their interaction in 2017. (Image Source: YouTube screenshot composite)
An email obtained through the Freedom of Information Act reveals a previous interaction between White House chief of staff John Kelly and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) that led to him insulting her.
'Insulting and abusive behavior'
The email from Kelly was sent during his time as secretary of Homeland Security in February 2017 and obtained by Buzzfeed News. Warren had spoken to Kelly and his staff via phone about her frustrations in regard to a restraining order on President Donald Trump's ban on travel from terrorist-stricken countries.
"Absolutely most insulting conversation I have ever had with anyone," Kelly wrote to his aide about Warren.
"What an impolite arrogant woman," he continued. "She immediately began insulting our people accusing them of not following the court order, insulting and abusive behavior towards those covered by the pause, blah blah blah."
Here's Warren's version of the story
On Thursday evening, Warren released a statement explaining her version of the heated interaction with Kelly.
"You probably remember," Warren wrote. "Right after Donald Trump became President, one of his first orders of business was launching an illegal, bigoted Muslim ban."
"We all felt powerless at the time," she continued, "Republicans had just won the White House and both branches of Congress — but my staff and I wanted to do something about it. So we tried to get answers from the Department of Homeland Security about their policy of illegally detaining Massachusetts residents (and their family members) at Boston Logan Airport."
Warren says that her staff contacted Kelly but he wouldn't respond. So she called him directly.
"When I finally did get on the phone with John Kelly, I asked if he had an office number that I could use in the future to get in touch more quickly," she continued. "He brushed me off, directing me to use the main line listed on the Department of Homeland Security's website (really). Even worse, he bizarrely insisted that I'd made the whole thing up and we'd never tried to reach him in the first place."
'Blah blah blah'
Warren claims her staff was stunned with Kelly's denials, and implied that Kelly's email response was due to sexism.
"I don't know about John Kelly," Warren said, "but there are some men who can only hear 'blah blah blah' whenever a woman's talking."
Warren ended her response with a parenthetical jab at Trump's social media habits.
"He can't even get Donald Trump off Twitter, and as far as I can tell, that was his main job description when he took on the role of White House chief of staff," she concluded.
Warren has been a vehement critic of Trump and his policies, which has raised the ire of the president. Even before he was elected, he criticized Sen. Warren and mocked her for her poorly corroborated claim that she has some Native American lineage.
"Isn't it funny when a failed Senator like goofy Elizabeth Warren can spend a whole day tweeting about Trump & gets nothing done in Senate?" he tweeted in May 2016.

The Calvin men's rugby team played a closely contested game against Central Michigan University last Saturday, October 21. Calvin lost by a score of 38-36.
It was the last home game for the Knights; they play on the Phi Chi field behind Knollcrest East Apartments.
Five minutes into the first half, CMU scored and made the conversion go ahead 7-0. Soon after, Walter Eythan Nobles scored by winning the scrum within the 5m zone of Calvin's side, and succeeded in the conversion, tying the score 7-7.
Possession of the ball went back and forth until the Exiles scored three times in a row with superior ball movement. In addition they succeeded in two out of the three conversions. The first half concluded with as core of 26-7 for Central Michigan.
In the second half, Calvin regained confidence and made a comeback, scoring five times consecutively.
Soon into the second half, the Knights pressed the Exiles into their zone. The Exiles kicked the ball short, and junior Bradley Lanser ran the ball to score in a 20m try, and made the conversion.
Sophomore Isaac Peterson continued the barrage, scoring a close range try and making the conversion to push the score up to 26-24.
A few possession changes later, Bren Homing, senior and captain, scored. However, the conversion attempt failed.
Next up in line to score was Nobles, his second goal of the game. With a good hook from a turnover from the Exile's scrum, Eythan made a successful run, thrusting Calvin to three points ahead of Central Michigan at 29-26.
With 10 minutes left to the game, Dillon Arndt chased a kick by Samuel Scheenstra, and scored. After the conversion, Calvin was leading by 10 points: 36-26.
With less than six minutes left into the game, Central Michigan scored a goal and succeeded in its attempt for a conversion.
In the last three minutes, Central Michigan combined an array of advantages and penalties to push from the half line to the 10m line. From there, the Exile's fly broke the line and scored, ending the game at 38-36.


In our previous 'Did You Know' article, we looked at the few times Nigeria crashed out of the FIFA World Cup during the group stage fixtures.
This time, let's take a look at the times the Super Eagles successfully broke through the group stages of the global showcase.
The 1994 FIFA World Cup was Nigeria's debut to the global championship and arguably the nation's best outing to the global event.
Nigeria was grouped alongside Bulgaria, Argentina and Greece in Group D.
The odds were not exactly in Nigeria's favor, but the team had a plan to prove themselves to the world.
In Nigeria's debut game at the games, the then Super Eagles squad pummeled Bulgaria 3-0, before suffering a 2-1 defeat to their Argentine rivals.
The Eagles defeated Greece 2-0 in the country's final game, making the required 6 points to advance to the knockout rounds.
Bulgaria and Argentina also had 6 points apiece, so both teams moved into the next stage of the World Cup.
Team Nigeria failed to advance to the quarterfinals after suffering a 2-1 defeat to Italy in the Round of 16.
Nigeria was grouped alongside Paraguay, Spain and Bulgaria in Group D of the 1998 FIFA World Cup.
The Super Eagles defeated Spain 3-2 in their first game of the tournament. The team also edged Bulgaria 1-0 in their second game.
In their final group game, Bulgaria utterly defeated Nigeria 3-1, however, having already won both previous games, the Super Eagles were in the clear.
Nigeria qualified as the leader of the group alongside Paraguay into the Round of 16.
The Eagles were knocked out of the championships by Denmark, who defeated Nigeria 4-1 in the knockout round.
The last time Nigeria made it into the group stage of the FIFA World Cup was at Brazil 2014.
Nigeria, Argentina, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Iran made up Group F of the World Cup.
Iran held Nigeria to a goalless draw in their first game of the global championship.
The Super Eagles, however, got back into the game with a 1-0 win over World Cup debutantes at the time, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
In Nigeria's final group game, Argentina defeated the Eagles 3-2. However, since Bosnia and Iran had only 3 points and 1 point respectively, Nigeria qualified into the knockout round.
France ended Nigeria's run at the World Cup with a 2-0 defeat.

THE STORY BEHIND CREATING "THE MOST PROGRESSIVE ARTIST COMMUNITY IN THE GUITAR WORLD"
Although FRETMONKEY™ RECORDS formed in late 2015 as an audio and music video production studio in Conway, Arkansas by Kevin Blake Goodwin and his family, Dennis and Alicia Cotabish (owners), it was an inspired vision of uniting independent, talented musicians across the globe under one collaborative artist community that led to the unique formation of FRETMONKEY™ and FRETMONKEY RECORDS STUDIO. What Goodwin found were 22 other award-winning and notable musicians spanning 10 countries who felt exactly the same way. The concept evolved and their efforts resulted in a one-of-a-kind, innovative artist community where the artists informed the decision-making and operations of the community, and are not bound to traditional label contracts that may prevent them from accepting other opportunities. With the premise that they are collectively stronger as a community of musicians rather than as solo independent artists, their mission is to capitalize on their collective voice to create career-changing opportunities for themselves and to create similar opportunities for Do-It-Yourself (DIY) musicians across the globe.
Fretmonkey founding members are Don Alder (winner of all top modern guitar competitions), Gary Lutton (winner of the UK-based televised competition Guitar Star), Jake Hertzog (winner of the Montreux Jazz Guitar Competition), Manan Gupta (winner of the prestigious international Lee Ritenour's Six String Theory Competition), Travis Bowman (winner of the national Ernie Ball Acoustic Prodigy contest, and Walnut Valley - Winfield International Fingerstyle Guitar Competition), Kevin Blake Goodwin, Justin St- Pierre and Jamie Dupuis (winners of the international Canadian Fingerstyle Guitar Competition), and Ali Deniz Kardelen (Indiana Fingerstyle Guitar champion). Fretmonkey Records also represents acclaimed musicians like Adrian Bellue, Adam Crossman, Aaron Edward, Haythem Mohammed, Raf Qu, Oscar Mendez, Geordie Little, Anthony Troy, Joseph Lyle, Jacob Quistgaard (aka Quist; lead guitarists for the legendary Bryan Ferry), Kris Schulz, and singer-songwriter R&B sensation Tyler Sellers (winner of the junior division of the national Alchemy Singer-Songwriting competition).
Led by the company's owner and acting President, Alicia Cotabish, Fretmonkey has emerged as the organized international community of fingerstyle guitar players and has expanded it the company's branding across the globe. In 2019, Mark Grover was named Fretmonkey Manager and Director of Community Outreach. Other instrumental staff members are Bo Zhang, the manager of operation of Fretmonkey China, and Owen Kirshner (Kirschner Creative Artists) and Elliot Prestwich (Image Punch Entertainment) whose expertise in artist management and in the entertainment industry have been a guiding force since Fretmonkey's inception.
Since 'organized community' is the main focus of FRETMONKEY, the vision has expanded to include partnerships with music manufacturers and collaborative partnerships which has resulted in the creation of international monthly events like the Belfast Acoustic Guitar Night, Berlin Acoustic Guitar Night, Manchester Guitar Night, Colombia Guitar Night, and Edinburgh Guitar Night. In 2017, Fretmonkey replicated its model in China, and opened an office in Nanchang City in October 2018. In 2019, Fretmonkey joined forces with world-renowned record label Candyrat Records to jointly create an annual international fingerstyle community festival, camp, and guitar competition in the United States - "Fingerstyle Collective Guitar Festival" - a monumental music event showcasing the diversity and extraordinary talents in the international fingerstyle guitar community. The "Fingerstyle Collective Guitar Festival" is being replicated in Portugal in summer 2022.
We like to think our story is reminiscent of a famous quote by Margaret Mead - "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
Keep plucking!

Thanks. This one is not so sophisticated, but it illustrates quite well that we are in outer band of the zone. Given that we are to see a strengthening of the CAD, the place to be a buyer is here. The dollar DXY closed right below a GANN resistance line from 2002 on weekly charts. The dollar is most likely due for an intermediate cycle degree correction. Let's see in the coming week. Have a nice weekend!
But in my experience it depends entirely on structure.. Some time you have to wait for a flag after breakout, some time just a pul back,some time a little retracement.. And in one specific pattern not to wait at all, trigger on just breakout... Isn't is so wave expert??

I don't know what it is about this time of year - but everyone seems to be cleaning up, cleaning out, and organizing. Must be the fact that we don't have to be a recluse in our home and can get out and about.
I have read a few blogs and have talked to some friends and it seems we are all doing some spring cleaning - in our homes and in our heads. I see a lot of people setting worthy goals and trying to spend more time with their families. Go you!
This past month has been really fun. I loved exploring new recipes, ideas, products, and restaurants. I also loved seeing some of my loyal reader and new readers win some of those great things.
If you didn't know, my blog is kind of new - coming up on its first birthday. So this past month was a first of its kind. It was not only great to try something new, but I learned a little bit about myself as a blogger. I feel like you and I lost who I was. I felt like I wasn't showing enough of me or my food. I hope you don't mind if once and a while I let you in on a little bit about me, rather than just my food.
I had a big change a couple weeks ago. I have always wanted to donate my hair to those who are suffering from hair loss due to chemotherapy. I am the perfect candidate - I have lots of hair (thickness wise I mean), my hair grows really fast, and I don't care about chopping my hair. I think it is such a great cause and have personally seen family members benefit from these types of places. If you follow me on twitter then you already know - but on April 20th, I cut my hair off. Well, about 10 inches off. It was a bit of a shock for me - but it is a fun, more hip 'do now. I hope someone else gets a fabulous new style because of the hair I donated.
How exciting! Can't wait to see more pics!
YES! The suspense is killing me!! Really though, way to go! My Mom is currently going through Chemo for a second time and it is a horrible thing to lose your hair. People like you who donate their beautiful hair are doing so much to help them through it. Thank you on their behalf!
I've seen the new do and I'll attest that is it HOT! You look fab.
So fun!! I can't wait to see the new you.
can't wait to see it all done up!
THAT'S A LOT OF HAIR, girl!!
and, between you and me, I think it's NAME too!! Name makes sense, not day!!! Thanks for weighing in!
Omigosh! Love it. How exciting to do something so nice.
Loving your blog looking forward to many more anniversaries.
Very, very chic! Check out my Susan G. Komen post.
By the way, my oldest daughter donated her hair a couple of years ago. Absolutely so proud!
Your hair is so pretty! I am anxious to see the after pics! These last two recipes are tempting me to forget my low-sugar diet!
I was lucky enough to see the final product in person, and it is beautiful!
You are so cute! I just found your cute blog and I would love to read more posts about you!
Someone is going to be lucky to get that gorgeous hair!
That's awesome! Good for you! Someone will surely benefit from that. I love your bangs... super cute!

How We Got to Osheaga
Sometimes dreams do come true
par Warren Wilansky | January 5, 2017
The greatest treasure about founding Plank almost 20 years ago is all the wonderful experiences it has created. It can be too easy to forget to stop and appreciate the special moments and get wrapped up in the struggles of keeping an organization moving
forward. Recently we started working on a project that twenty-something me would have been pretty darn impressed with.
In 1994, I decided to change my university major from Political Science to Communication Studies after a long discussion with a good friend in the
program. As he went through what it had to offer, it was clear that I found my academic focus, finally. I was excited about all the different media theory classes on offer, not to mention the idea that I could choose a production stream of film, television
or music (I chose music).
By the end of my 2nd year, a fourth stream was starting to develop, thanks to the efforts of a few professors. With the introduction of the "multimedia" stream, I suddenly found a creative outlet that also meshed with my 10+ year fascination with computers.
It was a Hallelujah moment to realize that I could build a career that married my interest in creativity and the internet.
For our final project in my "Multimedia II" class, we were expected to present an interactive project using Macromedia Director 4.0. I'll be honest, I don't remember what projects
others were working on while I spent hours upon hours in the Mac Lab, trading Photoshop and Lingo scripting tips with my peers. But I do vividly remember the project
that I worked on.
Focusing on my interest in music, I put together an interactive retrospective of the previous four years of Lollapalooza, which I'd attended when it came to Parc Jean Drapeau the previous summer. I was then, as I am now, passionate about attending shows and loved the large festival format. So I spent hundred of hours on that project exploring different design aesthetics, to find a way
to represent all the different artists and styles. In hindsight, I think the project was moderately successful but it really did set my career off in one direction and it was clear where my passion was.
Little did I know that this one travelling festival would become the model for so many other that would follow it. I also had no clue that, thanks to the passion and hard work of Dan Webster and Nick Farkas, Montreal would found in 2006 what would grow
to become one of the most important and successful music festivals in North America: Osheaga.
I'm proud that twenty years later, my dream of working on a festival project has come true for myself and for Plank. Growing out of our long relationship with evenko, we are honoured
to be working on Osheaga.com to support the festival in 2017. We are truly excited to build on the hard work that the evenko team has done for the past 10 years to develop this world-class event.
I'm humbled that we get to be a part of their team and that they've made my university dreams actually come to life.

Tourism in some of the Pacific's small islands is set to be boosted by a growing awareness about online marketing.
With help from the European Union, small and medium-sized tourism operators in Tuvalu and Nauru were trained on social media as well as search engine optimisation last week.
The project manager of the South Pacific Tourism Organisation, Chris Cocker, says there's many ways to help smaller island states boost tourism, and the SPTO is collaborating with governments and other stakeholders.
He says from March the 18th to 20th there will be a meeting with national statisitcs offices, reserve banks, national tourism offices and other immigration offices to improve the way tourism statistics are collected.
"It's collaboration, educating them, and also reaching out to other sectors as well. In terms of tourism, in the Pacific, sectors work in a silo effect but there are key linkeages in this case."
Chris Cocker says in August there will be a regional training workshop for executive chefs, to share knowledge and encourage the use of local resources.

Q: Thinking I should be allowed to `delete` a pointer but an error is thrown `block in use` Consider this function:
bool RemoveElement(const T2& e2)
{
    bool match = false;

    for (int i = 0; i < _trenutno; i++)
    {
        if (*_elementi2[i] == e2){

            match = true;

            for (int j = i; j < _trenutno - 1; j++)
            {
                _elementi1[j] = _elementi1[j + 1];
                _elementi2[j] = _elementi2[j + 1];

                // SOLUTION: The two lines above are not correct.
                // Instead of assigning addresses, I should have assigned
                // values, ie. dereference them like below:

                // *_elementi1[j] = *_elementi1[j + 1];
                // *_elementi2[j] = *_elementi2[j + 1];

            }
        }
    }

    if (match)
    {
        _trenutno--;

        //delete _elementi1[_trenutno];
        _elementi1[_trenutno] = nullptr;

        //delete _elementi2[_trenutno];
        _elementi2[_trenutno] = nullptr;
    }

    return match;
}

FYI, the pointers themselves (see below). I'm trying in the above function delete values behind this particular pair of pointers (last element) using delete because otherwise I believe memory leak would occur?
template<class T1, class T2, int max>
class Kolekcija
{
    T1* _elementi1[max];
    T2* _elementi2[max];
    int _trenutno;
public:
    Kolekcija()
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < max; i++)
        {
            _elementi1[i] = nullptr;
            _elementi2[i] = nullptr;
        }
        _trenutno = 0;
    }
    //  ...

    ~Kolekcija()
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < _trenutno; i++){
            delete _elementi1[i]; _elementi1[i] = nullptr;
            delete _elementi2[i]; _elementi2[i] = nullptr;
        }
    }
    // ....

Why is this happening, I'd like to learn more and better understand pointers.

A: If your class is the data owner and you want to remove some element:

*

*Find index of element (_elementi1[nFound] == searchValue)

*Delete this element from heap delete _elementi1[nFound];

*Set element's value to nullptr _elementi1[nFound] = nullptr;

*Only then move trailing elements in place of removed item.

This sequence will protect you against memory leaks in Remove method.
Destructor will clean other heap allocated values (assuming _trenutno is actual count):
    for (int i = 0; i < _trenutno; i++)
    {
        delete _elementi1[i]; _elementi1[i] = nullptr;
        delete _elementi2[i]; _elementi2[i] = nullptr;
    }

Deleting nullptr is safe.
So my version of Remove():
bool RemoveElement(const T2& e2)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < _trenutno; i++)
    {
        if (*_elementi2[i] == e2)
        {
            delete _elementi1[i];
            _elementi1[i] = nullptr;
            delete _elementi2[i];
            _elementi2[i] = nullptr;

            for (int j = i; j < _trenutno - 1; j++)
            {
                _elementi1[j] = _elementi1[j + 1];
                _elementi2[j] = _elementi2[j + 1];
            }
            _trenutno--;
            return true; //found
        }
    }
    return false; //not found
}

I'm assuming that your collection is the data owner. So you have to delete all pointers that was passed to it.
Simple example (we'r adding 3 values):
int* elements[max] = {0};
elements[0] = new int(4); //0x00FF1F
elements[1] = new int(5); //0x00FF2F
elements[2] = new int(6); //0x00FF3F
_trenutno = 3;

We have to delete all 3 int*
If no Remove was called destructor will handle it (delete from 0 to 2).
If we call Remove(5):

*

*Found index of 5 value i == 1

*Call delete elements[1] that means releaze memory at address 0x00FF2F

*Make shift: elements[1] = elements[2]
Now our array is:
elements[0]; //0x00FF1F
elements[1]; //0x00FF3F
elements[2]; //0x00FF3F

And _trenutno = 2;
So destructor will remove pointers from '0' to '1'.
That is all 3 pointers where deleted!

A: Here you have many problems, at first you need to delete item , and then set nullptr value for that position in array, and if I want to use array of T1 and T2 like in your case , than I would use vector instead of simple array

TOWER— The city council here set a late September deadline for the development group led by Orlyn Kringstad to sign a revised development agreement for town homes at the city's harbor or the city will cancel the project.
The agreement would require the developers to take on significant additional financial risk, since it would leave them potentially on the hook for the cost of public infrastructure if the project failed to move forward.
Under the original agreement, the city had agreed to pay for the full cost of public infrastructure, mostly through grants from the IRRRB and the state Department of Employment and Economic Development. But estimated costs have risen sharply and the city has been less successful than anticipated in obtaining outside funds to assist with project costs.
"In order to protect the city, the letter of credit was asked for, so if something went awry, we wouldn't be sitting on three-quarters of a million dollars of infrastructure," said Mayor Josh Carlson, who acknowledged the requirement was not part of the original development agreement.
The city's deadline comes barely a month after permits and platting for the project were finally approved, which means the project could potentially move forward to actual sales if the dispute over the development agreement could be resolved.
The council's action appeared to be a reaction to Kringstad's recent decision to file for mayor in the fall election. Council member Kevin Fitton questioned whether Kringstad was committed to the development given his plans to divest himself from the town home project in order to avoid any conflict of interest as mayor. "How is that supposed to increase our confidence that you will complete the project?" Fitton asked. Kringstad said his partners on the project would be taking over the project in his place.
"What is the current contract between Tower Vision 2025 and the city?" asked council member Lance Dougherty.
"There is no current development agreement," responded Carlson, who noted that the previous agreement had expired and that the two parties have not come to agreement on the new terms.
Kringstad said his group had been willing to sign an extension of the agreement until the city made demands that put the developers at risk for costs the city had originally agreed to cover.
"What should have happened is that we simply changed the dates for begin construction and end construction," he said.
Harbor committee chair Steve Altenburg, who is also running for mayor, said the request for a line of credit or some other backing by the developers had been made upon the advice of the city's financial advisors.
"We can't afford to take on any more bonded debt," said City Clerk-Treasurer Linda Keith.
Fitton said his confidence in the project has diminished over the past two and half years, and he suggested, without foundation, that if the city were to approve infrastructure funding, Kringstad could come back to the city three months later seeking funding to build the town homes.
"At what point does this become entirely the city's project?" he asked.
Fitton's comments overlooked some of the project's history, including that the city of Tower had originally attracted Kringstad's group to the project by seeking development services, like architectural design, marketing, sales, and construction, while the city intended to actually serve as developer and finance the project itself. The city changed course shortly after bringing Kringstad's group on board, asking Tower Vision 2025 to serve as developer of the town home project, while the city agreed to finance public infrastructure. The city's latest change now puts the potential financial risks of much of the public infrastructure onto Tower Vision 2025.
Kringstad took issue with Fitton's comment, noting that construction of the project was always to be based on sales, not upfront financing, by the city or anyone else. "That has never changed," he said.
"They're getting the land for a dollar," he said, and suggested, again without foundation, that the project stood to net close to $4 million profit. Fitton said he based that estimate on rough calculations he did on the project sales, assuming construction costs of 50 percent of the home price. In fact, the construction price for the homes, based on financials reviewed by this reporter, are well above 50 percent of the cost, and those costs don't include expenses incurred for soft costs, including architectural design, engineering, marketing, sales commissions, insurance, and contingency. In the end, the project's current projected margin is approximately eight percent, and most of those proceeds are promised to outside investors who have financially backed the project.
Kringstad said his group has already spent several hundred thousand dollars on the development. Fitton responded saying that the city paid for $120,000 of that through a grant from the IRRRB and stated that Kringstad was now coming to the city asking for more.
Kringstad asked Fitton what he meant by that. "I would say that three-quarters of a million dollars is asking for more," responded Fitton. Kringstad explained that those funds are for public infrastructure, which the city had agreed to finance as part of the original development agreement. Carlson concurred with Kringstad. "Those costs were always going to be on the city," he said.
"We're choosing our words very carefully here," said Kringstad. "There are a lot of pieces to this project and I'm not blaming anyone and I don't think the city should be blaming us. Things happen along the way." Kringstad said that finishing platting and applying for permits had made it impossible to meet the timeline in the original agreement.
Carlson said he understands the sense of frustration by some on the council who are less informed about the reasons behind delays in the project. And he suggested the council look at setting a deadline for the developers to accept the new terms of the agreement. The cvouncil agreed to give the developers until Sept. 25 to accept the proposal.
 Discussed sidewalk repairs at length, agreeing to seek quotes from local contractors for work on the sidewalk along the west side of the Scenic Rivers clinic (Spruce Street) as well as in front of the U-Betcha antique shop, where a woman recently fell face first due to rough sidewalk there.
 Approved the installation of a holding tank for wastewater at the airport pending a review by City Engineer Jason Chopp. The single bid, for $33,500, from CW Winger was significantly above earlier estimates for the cost of the project. The new holding tank was made necessary by the council's decision last year to abandon the septic drainfield that used to serve the city's campground and still serves the airport.
 Approved a 2018-19 propane contract with Como for 1.09.9 per gallon. The council also approved a motion to limit the employee propane discount to employees who receive a W-2 from the city.
 Agreed to send a letter to residents of North Third Street asking them not to park off-street in the drive lane. The narrow nature of portions of the road is creating problems for emergency vehicles and delivery trucks when two cars park on either side of the road. The council opted to seek the cooperation of residents of the street before considering other possible approaches to address the problem.
 Approved the location of the Welcome to Tower sign at the intersection of Hwy. 169 and Hwy. 135. The council also approved hiring CW Winger to do site prep, at a cost of $3,000.
 Heard a proposal from Greg Dostert for the creation of a joint youth recreation board.
Best to freshen up with another large splash of IRRRRRB money. But is it going to end up like a game of musical chairs? Money is the music.

Retirement lights an artistic spark for Vi at Highlands Ranch resident
Dr. Barbara Moser discovers the upside in downsizing
After 50 years together, life is never dull for Lee and Frances Chouinard
"Right-sizing" for a new life at Vi at Highlands Ranch
Residents make friends – both new and old
When Jerry and Sally Lavine relocated in December 2015 from their home in warm, sunny Texas to Vi at Highlands Ranch, the weather was the most noticeable change.
"It snowed the day we moved in," Mrs. Lavine said. "It was a winter wonderland!"
But the move brought many other big changes for the couple, including one that took place over several months: the process of whittling a lifetime of possessions in their 3,600-square-foot home down to a collection that would fit into their new 1,300-square-foot apartment.
According to Nicole Pollard, Sales Director for Vi at Highlands Ranch, this process of "right sizing" is something nearly all new residents go through as they prepare to make the transition to the community.
"'Downsizing' sounds so intimidating," Pollard said. "Residents laugh when we use the term 'right-sizing,' but it just means doing what makes sense for them during this phase of their lives. It's a challenge, but most embrace it.".
Preparing to Make the Move
Selecting what items to keep presented some difficult decisions for the Lavine's, as did figuring out where items that didn't make the cut would go.
Mrs. Lavine says most of the bigger items — furniture in particular — went to nearby family and friends, smaller items like books and artwork to local organizations.
"Every month we would go to town with a load of stuff in the car to take to the library, or thrift store," Mrs. Lavine said.
One of the hardest things to part with: Mr. Lavine's tools.
"Jerry had a workshop in our garage, and we knew we just couldn't bring all those tools with us," Mrs. Lavine said. "They were hard for him to give up, but they went to a wonderful home: Two of his friends came over one weekend and loaded everything up."
Making the difficult decisions of what to keep and leave behind ultimately make residents' apartments a truly special place, said Pollard.
"Each and every thing in our residents' apartments are precious to them," Pollard said.
"They value what they have even more because the items they've kept are truly a reflection of who they are.".
Working With a Move Manager
Once the Lavine's chose Vi as their new home, they worked with a professional move manager that the Vi sales staff helped them find.
Move managers can assist residents on either end of the move, doing everything from arranging estate sales or coordinating charitable donations before the move, or creating a floor plan and physically setting up the space during move-in.
"For a lot of our new residents, move managers are a godsend!" Pollard said. "They eliminate a lot of the stress and feelings of being overwhelmed."
Laurie MacLeod, Vi at Highlands Ranch's move-in coordinator, says about 85 percent of residents end up hiring a move manager to assist in their transition. Those who don't often live among boxes in unfinished spaces for too long, and MacLeod thinks residents deserve to feel settled in right away.
"We'd like them to arrive in a finished space," MacLeod said. "Our new residents should be able to go into their apartment that first night, sleep in their own bed and have all their belongings in the right places."
Hiring a move manager was the right choice for the Lavines: The crews unpacked all the boxes, arranged the furniture, and took away all the paper and trash; a week later, their move manager even came back and helped Mrs. Lavine hang pictures.
After the "right-sizing" decisions were made and the long-distance move was complete, the fun part arrived for the Lavine's: turning their new apartment into a home.
Mrs. Lavine got a lot of ideas for decorating and arranging the new apartment from some new friends, a couple they met at Vi at Highlands Ranch who made a similar move from Texas. She got plenty of storage tips, as well as inspiration to lay a favorite Oriental rug over the apartment's existing carpeting.
New friends and a sense of community all foster a strong sense of home, Pollard says — sometimes more so than the physical items inside residents' apartments.
"Our residents, all in all, are so pleased that you don't really hear them saying things like, 'I miss my china hutch,'" Pollard said. "They benefit so much from the lifestyle and socialization that they often forget how important they thought those items were before they moved."
Today, the Lavines' home is a comfortable, cheerful place to live, with plenty of reminders of their long, happy life in Texas. While the couple sometimes miss their Texas home, Mrs. Lavine never doubts that they made the right decision.
"Our kitchen had glass windows all across the back, and I could see the lake from my big kitchen table. In my new kitchen at Vi, I put up a picture that a friend water colored," she said. "It's a Texas scene with live oak tree, Indian paintbrush, bluebonnets, a Texas flag, and a windmill. Every time I look at it, I don't even feel like I've left."


The train ride from Ulaanbaatar to Irkutsk, Russia is about 30 hours. Unfortunately 10+ of those hours are wasted on border crossings. We were rustled out of bed at 630am as we approached the Mongolian border. The Mongolian officials searched the train, our bags, and our persons while mean mugging and inspecting our passports. Then the train rolled several hundred yards down the track so the Russian border guards could do the same. The entire charade was repeated yet this time German shepherds and armed military personnel joined in on the fun. There was a lot of angry sounding yelling and instructions over the train's loudspeakers.
We were imprisoned in our train berth for the 1st 4 hours and endured the process with a slightly older Aussie couple. Despite numerous attempts at communication with others on board it became obvious that we were the only English speakers on the train (imagine that in a non-English speaking country). We had no idea when the train was scheduled to depart or what was going on. Our train carriage attendant was the stereotypical Russian woman. She looked like a female Ivan Drago with short red hair, a deep voice and a stern, stoic face that looked as if it had never smiled. We watched her dress down several passengers in Russian until each retreated like a tortoise into its shell. She used her limited English to dominate the Australian woman in our cabin to the point that the Aussie hid under the covers for 3 hours. While the kangaroo was hiding and Nug was sleeping (thank God or the Cold War would have restarted) this Russian gem came to our room with a basket of garbage packaged food. "Wood zu like?!" The Aussie guy and I looked up from our respective books and declined. She stayed put, "Zah… mah-bay…zyou don't… oon-derstand….PICK ONE!" It sounded like a threat. We repeated that we were good. She exploded, "Zhis eeez ree-diculous! Zyou don't buy… eez very BAD for zmee!" I tried to use my big kid voice when I repeated, "No, we don't want…" There was silence as she glared at us and we all waited to see who would fold first. "Zhis is unbelievable! ZAmericans and ZAustralians hab no money is VERY bad," she screamed and slammed the door as she stormed out. Dave looked at me and we burst out laughing. "If she was nice I would have bought the whole bloody lot," he said, before continuing, "Either way I think we are the 1st ones here to win a battle with her." Several hours later we started our 5000+ km journey towards Moscow.
There are advantages that this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
It was certainly an unforgettable experience!
Someone else tried to take a pic of her and she grabbed the camera out of their hands and spiked it like a football…I was scared.

Nautilus Actions Extra provides a set of useful scripts for Nautilus 3. Among the included scripts/actions are: advanced search, open file with Gedit as user or root, set image as wallpaper, mount or unmount ISO files, verify checksum, convert image and audio files, batch rename (pyRenamer), add emblems and more.
One of the most interesting scripts included is called "Emblemize2" (you can access it by right clicking on a file or folder and selecting Advanced Actions > Emblemize2), which lets you add emblems to files and folders in Nautilus 3 - a feature that has been removed from Nautilus -, but unlike the script we wrote about a few days ago, you can see the emblems before applying them.
Nautilus Actions Extra requires the Multiverse Ubuntu repository to be enabled (Software Sources, on the Ubuntu Software tab). Also, be aware that it will install a lot of dependencies which are required by the various scripts it comes with.
You can see all the available packages here.
Then select the action(s) you want to delete, click the delete button, then save the changes (File > Save). The changes should be applied instantly, without having to restart Nautilus.
For bug reports, see Nautilus Actions Extra @ Launchpad.
Thanks to Amr Osman for the tip!
