Q: C++ Hashmap Key value Pair is wiped after calling function a second time I am using a hashmap to store roman numeral key value pairs, but it seems that it stores it initially during the first function call but when the function is called with another expression the key value pair previously stored does not exist. I thought passing by reference would keep the values constant throughout but that does not seem to be the case, any help to point me in the right direction would be appreciated.

In Evolving World of Microcredentials, Students, Colleges and Employers Want Different Things
By Jeffrey R. Young Jan 23, 2018
Jeff Young, Sean Gallagher, and Nicola Soares discuss future of microcredentials
This article is part of the guide EdSurge Live: A Town-Hall Style Video Forum.
Many colleges these days are experimenting with short-form online degrees to try to reach new audiences and offer new options, often at a lower cost. And new upstart providers are also getting into the mix, including coding bootcamps and startups like Udacity, which offers unaccredited nanodegrees. These trends raise a host of questions about the future of credentialing.
To explore some of these questions, EdSurge recently held an hour-long video forum featuring two guests:
Sean Gallagher, the founder and executive director of Northeastern University's Center for the Future of Higher Education and Talent Strategy and author of the book, The Future of University Credentials: New Developments at the Intersection of Higher Education and Hiring.
Nicola Soares, vice president and managing director for Kelly Educational Staffing at Kelly Services, who has her finger on the pulse of employment and hiring trends.
Read highlights from the conversation below (which have been edited and condensed for clarity). You can listen to a version below, or on your favorite podcast app (like iTunes or Stitcher). Or watch the complete conversation. The event was part of our EdSurge Live series.
One of the biggest things that any new microcredential program needs is for employers to accept them. In IT fields there has been an appetite for alternative credentials, but how much will employers outside of tech warm to these?
Nicola Soares: It definitely depends on the industry. If you look at an industry like healthcare, there's obviously very regulated sort of needs on credentialing and certain types of skills that are in demand. But outside of disciplines like healthcare we are starting to see employers sort of embracing microcredentials or nontraditional kinds of certifications.
Certainly within the education space we're starting to see the credentialing criteria loosening up a little bit, so maybe [programs require] less hours or there might be a nontraditional undergrad degree that could [count toward professional requirements], depending on the state.
We anticipate in the future that we'll see these become more commonplace and more accepted.
Sean, in many of the alternative credentials that colleges are experimenting with, programs work more directly with major employers on things like capstone projects. But it can be a kind of third rail topic for a lot of traditional professors because there's a lot of skepticism and concern that colleges could become overly vocational. Could you talk a little bit about that tension?
Sean Gallagher: I would put the microcredentialing trend as a major sub-theme within a broader conversation about job outcomes and competency-based education. Virtually all of the microcredentials that have been launched and offered—and where the enrollments are and where companies appear most interested—are oriented toward professional and technical skills and disciplines. But whether it's supply-chain management or some aspect of business, or even teaching, it's about [practical skills] rather than [theory.] You see platforms like edX, Coursera and Udacity working with employers who are focused on jobs skills and demands that are out there in the external market, and then going to their university or college partners and really designing to that.
We have a question from a viewer. Should microcredentials be able to stand on their own or should they be embedded in a degree?
Sean Gallagher: Microcredentials are positioned in the media and by government leaders as disruptors of the degree and things that will replace the degree—sort of the anti-degree in many ways. I think there's merits to that in the sense that they're shorter, they're more targeted, and they tend to be much less expensive, sometimes even free.
And so, in a world where degrees are seen as a costly proposition and there's lot of concern about debt and educational attainment, these microcredentials are the potential solution. But more often their impact is they help people in job promotion, as an added benefit for a candidate or professional where okay, you might have your bachelor's already or an associate degree or nothing, and this shows that you're gaining some new skills and competencies and it helps you advance.
Soares: I agree with that in terms of the jury being out. And I definitely agree with the point that there's a faster rate of adoption [for microcredentials by] workers who are already in the job market.
From an employer's perspective in terms of having it funded by employers, we definitely see that in more-traditional employment settings.
Gallagher: You can make the argument that as employer support for traditional degree funding —sending people to grad school or helping them complete an online bachelor's etc—has declined modestly, there's subsequently a pretty significant interest among employers in providing employees with microcredentials which are quicker less expensive and more targeted to what they need.
There's always been a tension: The employer has always wanted to fund the thing that's most directly relevant to their business—the profit-oriented, the thing that's least expensive and is going to generate a return, versus the employee who needs a mobile credential so they can take it with them throughout their career to the next employer.
That's an interesting dynamic where so much of this is at this intersection of not just higher ed or post-secondary education world, but it's also what's happening in terms of employer training. There's a lot more competition and the boundaries between academic credit and noncredit training are blurring.
Soares: Part of that is about executive leadership development—to be able to offer microcredential kinds of experiences not just based on the hard skills required to function in the job, but also for the softer skills too. I think about emotional intelligence.
We have a final audience question, from Cali Morrison, with American Public University System: How will institutions accept outside learning? We've been doing that for the last 40 years—with Prior Learning Assessment and with ACE credit recommendations. So how do you see this as different?
Gallagher: What we're talking about here is how does the market drive things? Do institutions become forced to accept and recognize [more] outside credit?
The idea behind competency-based education is that you have certain skills and knowledge that you can document and compare to a formal credential or a formal educational program, and now we have many different inputs into that. Some of it is going to come from military training, or on-the-job training, or a community college, or you can do it online through a MOOC, a formal for credit course, a master's degree credit course or something else. You're going to get individuals learning from different sources, but how is it assessed and endorsed and standardized? And then, what will it roll into as a credential? In many regions an institution cannot historically accept more than a quarter of the credit toward a graduate degree from the outside, and so that becomes a limitation.
These are existential questions, I think. I like to consider myself an optimist, but what you flag is one of the big barriers and questions, especially for very elite institutions, or if you're an institution that's not thoughtful about assessment, outcomes orientation, or your online education approach.

After getting permission from the minister of finance and warfare last year things have been set in motion for another EPIC motorcycle tour. Last years trip didn't eventuate and has been delayed but its back on now with bike hire now confirmed. And who knows there could even be an international bloggers meet up involved. The destination has now been confirmed and dates locked in. Look out my kiwi blogging friends we are coming to play in your back yard. Lock up your daughters.
There's always room for one more mate.
Yes, how much can you drink?
Wonderful! Can't wait to tag along (albeit virtually).
Sure thing, we will be riding roads you've have already sampled you lucky devil.
Sure will Peter, I'll have it up on the blog just as last time.
Cripes indeed. Will have to have a chat with a friend in Aviation Security about rubber gloves - dimpled ones on this occasion I think ;-) . Sounds like I might have to loan your team my radar detector, haha.
Heh heh be seeing you soon geoff, we will bring a spare set of gloves for you buddy.
With our over zealous highway patrols to keep us all safe you might be surprise that you guys are the hoons and need the radar detector to stay in check.
Hi Chiller, always sad to hear about accidents involving bikers and sorry to hear about Ash although I never visited his blog. When I first started riding in 2010, I was a regular visitor to Forty Years on Two wheels, and it generated a lot of my motivation to get out and ride. Then in 2004 Doug the blogger just stopped, saying he or maybe his bike needed a maintenance break. Since then ... nothing and I often wonder how Doug is. I continue to blog because it fulfils the need I had when I started, which simply was to record my motorcycling activities for my own enjoyment when I can no longer ride. Good luck with the NZ ride - I will follow with interest. Been there a few times but never on a bike.
Yeah I read Dougs blog too. I'll continue with my blog for a while yet, just haven't been doing any riding lately to blog about.
Such a great ride destination, especially North Island.

Bandim Health Project forsker i at forbedre folkesundheden i et af verdens fattigste lande, Guinea-Bissau i Vestafrika.

Projektets forskning bygger på et unikt overvågnings- og registreringssystem af mere end 100.000 mennesker i seks forstæder til hovedstaden Bissau og 182 mindre områder i landdistrikterne. Blandt disse mennesker bliver fødsler, dødsfald, sygdom, hospitalsindlæggelser, vaccinationer og amning fulgt med særligt fokus på kvinderne og børnene.

Bandim Health Project er medlem af INDEPTH, som er en sammenslutningen af sundhedsforskningsinstitutioner i Afrika, Asien og Oceanien.

Historie
Bandim Health Project blev grundlagt i 1978 af . Projektet er et samarbejde mellem sundhedsministeriet i Guinea-Bissau og Statens Serum Institut i Danmark. Desuden samarbejder projektet med forskere fra både Syddansk-, Københavns- og Aarhus Universitet.

I 2012 finasierede Danmarks Grundforskningsfond etableringen af Forskningscenter for Vitaminer og Vacciner, CVIVA. Centeret skal styrke forskningen i uspecifikke effekter af vacciner, som blev opdaget af forskerne på Bandim Health Project.

Forskerne på Bandim Health Projekt har udgivet over 700 videnskabelige artikler. Medarbejdere på projektet har siden starten i 1978 til sammen opnået mere end 40 Phd- eller doktorgrader og 13 kandidatgrader i global sundhed.

Forskning
Bandim Health Project forsker i folkesundhed med fokus på kvinder og børn inden for følgende områder:

 Vacciner, både den specifikke beskyttelse mod en given sygdom, men i særdeleshed deres mulige uspecifikke effekter på sygelighed og dødelighed.
 Andre sundhedsinterventioner, blandt andre vurdering af den samlede indvirkning på dødeligheden af nye tiltag eller ændringer i eksisterende politikker.
 Infektionssygdomme, for eksempel mæslinger, diarré, rotavirus, luftvejsinfektioner, malaria, HIV og tuberkulose.
 Ernæring, blandt andet vitamintilskud og amning.
 Humanitær bistand

Vigtige resultater
På Bandim Health Project opdagede man, at en ny mæslingevaccine, som blev brugt i udviklingslandene, var forbundet med en fordobling i dødeligheden blandt piger i forhold til den vaccine man brugte tidligere. Dette førte til at vaccinen blev trukket tilbage. Var det ikke sket, ville det have betydet mindst en halv million flere dødsfald blandt piger i Afrika om året.

Organisation
Peter Aaby er leder af Bandim Health Project, mens Amabelia Rodrigues er national forskningskoordinator.

Bandim Health Project ligger i Guinea-Bissau, men har også en lille afdeling på Statens Serum Institut i København, hvor Christine Stabell Benn er daglig leder. Projektet er også tilknyttet Syddansk Universitet, hvor Peter Aaby er adjungeret professor og Christine Stabell Benn er professor i global sundhed.

The FIBA Zone VI qualifiers tipped off with an exciting game between Mozambique and South Africa women's teams. From the start, Mozambique established control by implementing a full court 2-2-1 press against South Africa, who seemed ill equipped to deal with the press early on, and Mozambique cruised to a 10-0 lead after 2:17 minutes played. South African coach Craig Daniels called a quick timeout to calm down his troops. This seemed to work as South Africa scored 14 compared to Mozambique's 16 to close out the quarter at 24-16 in favour of Mozambique.
The second quarter was no better for the home team as they could not take care of the ball, leading to what seemed like a fast break drill by Mozambique who continued to employ their full court press to full effect. South Africa had problems containing Mozambican forward Leai Dongue (12) down low as she raced off to a 17 point 7 rebound game on 71.4% shooting from the field in just under 24 minutes of action. This forced South Africa to try and double team her but she was effective at initiating contact and got to the line 10 times, converting 7 of her shots from the charity stripe. Half time came with South Africa trailing Mozambique 27 – 49.
Turnovers and points off turnovers were a big factor in deciding the outcome as the winning team gave it up 9 times as compared to the 29 times that South Africa coughed it up. Five players for Mozambique scored in double figures while only Takalani Mfamadi (4) had 15 points for South Africa in about 21 minutes of action. Both teams could not get it going from distance as South Africa connected on only 1 out of its 12 attempts and Mozambique, 6 of 22 respectively. Free throw shooting was a setback for the South African side, which shot 51.5% on 33 attempts and Mozambique converted 75.8% on the same number of free throws.
The biggest lead for Mozambique was 38 points and they never relinquished their lead and raced to a 31 point rout of South Africa. Final Score, Mozambique 87, South Africa 56.

Q: Javascript, getting global variable property What I'm trying to do is set a global variable dot type to "mobile" or "desktop" according to the screen size.
var userScreen = {}
if (screen is small){
  userScreen.type === 'mobile'
}
else {
  userScreen.type === 'desktop'
}

Everything is working within the same file but I'm having issues getting the userScreen.type to be available in another JavaScript file.
screen-size.js:
$(document).ready(function(){
  var userScreen = {};

  var resizeTimer;
  $(window).on('resize load', function(e) {
    clearTimeout(resizeTimer);
    resizeTimer = setTimeout(function() {
      var windowWidth = $(window).width();
      if ($('body').height() < $(document).height()) {
        var windowWidth = windowWidth + 15;
      }
      if (windowWidth < 768){
        userScreen.type = 'mobile';
      }
      else{
        userScreen.type = 'desktop';
      }
    }, 250);
  });

another-js-file
$(document).ready(function(userScreen){
  console.log(userScreen.type);
});

Console Log "userScreen.type" result:
function( obj ) {
    if ( obj == null ) {
        return obj + "";
    }
    // Support: Android<4.0, iOS<6 (functionish RegExp)
    return typeof obj === "object" || typeof obj === "function" ?

Load order:

*screen-size.js

*another-js-file.js

Thanks
EDIT
Want to say thank you for everyones responses. Final answer
So I created an IIFE with just setting the window.userScreen object
get-user-screen.js
window.userScreen = {};

function getScreenSize(){
  var windowWidth = $(window).width();
  if ($('body').height() < $(document).height()) {
    var windowWidth = windowWidth + 15;
  }
  if (windowWidth < 768){
    userScreen.type = 'mobile';
  }
  else{
    userScreen.type = 'desktop';
  }
  console.log(userScreen.type);
}

(function(){
  getScreenSize();
}());

That made the variable available globally like I wanted and eliminated the Timeout issue that was brought up. Everything is working as expected.
Thanks again

A: The best way to declare an explicit global is to create it directly on the window object. So for your case, create it like:
window.userScreen = {};
And when you want to access it, you can again do it via window.userScreen. Many might object to this usage because globals do smell however this is a way to obviously communicate to another developer that your global is an intentional global.
I advocate for using a better pattern like CommonJS modules but that does require more setup and knowledge. But if you're curious, it's a great direction to go if you want to keep your code clean and compartmentalized.

A: You can declare the variable in your html, before you load any js files, inside a script tag. Like so:
<script type='text/javascript' >
  var userScreen = {};
</script>

Put that before the script tags that load your javascript files, and they should all be able to use that variable. Also, remember not to redeclare that variable again; remove the var userScreen = {}; from inside screen-size.js

A: First of all declare it outside the document.ready (as global variable).
Secondly, You're getting the userScreen.type before you're setting it (see timeout 250). I'd suggest different approach, from your description i don't see any point in having a timeout. Therefor:
screen-size.js
function getSize(){
  if ($('body').height() < $(document).height()) {
    var windowWidth = windowWidth + 15;
  }
  if (windowWidth < 768){
    return 'mobile';
  }
  else{
    return 'desktop';
  }
}

another-js-file.js:
$(document).ready(function(){
    console.log(getSize());
});

Tarenyawagon or Hiawatha
I will now resume the history of the sixth and last family, the Tuscarora On-gwe-hon-wa, that were left at the Neuse river, or Gan-ta-no. Here they increased in numbers, valor and skill, and in all knowledge of the arts necessary in forest life. The country was wide and covered with dense wilderness, large rivers and lakes, which gave shelter to many fierce animals and monsters which beset their pathways and kept them in dread. Now the Evil Spirit also plagued them with monstrous visitations. They were often induced to change their locations; sometimes from fear of enemies and sometimes from epidemics, or some strange visitations.
I will now relate a few of the monsters that plagued them: The first enemy that appeared to question their power or disturb their peace was the fearful phenomenon of Ko-nea-rah-yah-neh, or the flying heads. The heads were enveloped in beard and hair, flaming like fire; they were of monstrous size, and shot through the air with the speed of meteors. Human power was not adequate to cope with them. The priests pronounced them a flowing power of some mysterious influence, and it remained with the priests alone to expel them by their magic power.
Drum and rattle and enchantments were deemed more effective than arrows or clubs. One evening, after they had been plagued a long time with fearful visitations, the flying head came to the door of a lodge occupied by a single female and her dog. She was sitting composedly before the fire roasting acorns, which, as they became cooked, she deliberately took from the fire and ate. Amazement seized the flying head, who put out two huge black paws from under his streaming beard. Supposing the woman to be eating live coals he withdrew, and from that time he came no more among them.
And they were also invaded by a still more fearful enemy, the Ot-nea-yar-heh, or Stonish Giants. They were a powerful tribe from the wilderness, tall, fierce and hostile, and resistance to them was vain. They defeated and overwhelmed an army which was sent out against them, and put the whole country in fear. These giants were not only of great strength, but they were cannibals, devouring men, women and children in their inroads.
It is said by the Shawnee that these giants were descended from a certain family which was journeying on the east side of the Mississippi. After some of them had crossed the river on a vine it broke, which left the main body on the east bank of the river. Those who were on the west side of the river went toward the northwest. Being abandoned in their wanderings, and being vagrants, without any knowledge of the arts of life, they forgot the rules of humanity. They at first began to eat their game in the raw flesh, which led them finally to become cannibals, and they practiced to roll themselves in the sand, which caused their bodies to be covered with a hard skin, so that the arrows of the Tuscarora only rattled against their rough bodies and fell at their feet. And the consequence was, that they were obliged to bide in caves and glens, and were brought into subjection by those fierce invaders for many winters. At length the Holder of the Heavens visited his people, and finding that they were in great distress, he determined to relieve them of these barbarous invaders. To accomplish this he changed himself as into one of those giants. As you will remember, it is said that he was able to change himself into any shape that he wished. He then joined himself with the invaders, and brandishing his heavy war club, led them on under the pretence of finding the other five nations, which they were also in the habit of visiting. When they came near to the strong fort at Onondaga, they being weary of the long journey, and the night being dark, their leader bade them lie down at the foot of a mountain until the customary time to make the attack, which was at the break of day. But during the night the Indian benefactor ascended the height and overwhelmed the slumbers below with a vast mass of rocks. At this catastrophe only one escaped to carry the news of their dreadful fate, and he fled toward the north.
The Tuscarora and the other five nations were so much troubled with giants and other monsters that they were obliged to build forts to protect themselves. The way they built them was always by selecting an eminence, or rocky cliff, and on the back part was dug a trench according to the plan of the fort. Then timbers were set in the trench upright, projecting above the ground several feet, and being adjusted together as close as possible, and the trench being filled in again. They had two gates, one way to get their water, the other for a sally port.
They were also molested by a terrific animal which they called Ro-qua-ho a variegated lizard a swift runner and strikes very violent blows with its tail, which destroyed many hunters while lying in lurk for them. One day while a party of hunters were on their journey to camp-out for the purpose of hunting, the party consisting of four, they came to a very large hollow tree where they noticed quite a number of great marks of claws on the bark of the tree. Supposing it to be the lodge of bears, they laid their bundles down and made ready for their game. One of them bounded on the tree and climbed it, and he struck the trunk of the tree several times. When the supposed bear appeared, to their consternation it was found to be the enemy they so much dreaded, the Ro-qua-ho. The person on the tree only stepped behind it and the other three ran away for their lives. The Ro-qua-ho came down and pursued them, and while yet in sight one was caught, killed and brought back, and he carried the body into the tree. Then he went after the second which was brought in a short time, after which, he went for the third; then the one on the tree came down and ran away also. While on his way he heard a voice calling him; he stopped, and behold, a man of stately form, with long flowing hair stood and said, "Why run? I have seen the distress of my people, I have come to deliver them out of trouble; now confide in me and we will prevail. I am your benefactor, Tarenyawagon. Get behind me, the enemy is approaching."
In the twinkling of an eye this Celestial being was changed, and assumed himself into a great white bear. When the Roquaho came a great struggle ensued, but with the help of the man the enemy was killed.
They were again molested by an extraordinary and ferocious animal in various places a mammoth bear. One morning while a party of hunters were in their camp, they were alarmed by a great tumult breaking out from the forest. Upon going to ascertain the cause of this extraordinary noise, they saw the great monster on the bank pawing and rolling stones and logs in every direction, exhibiting the utmost rage. Another great animal of the cat kind appeared, and seized the bear and a dreadful fight ensued. In the end the bear got the worst of it and retired horribly mangled, and never was heard of afterwards.
After a while a pestiferous and annoying creature of the insect kind appeared in the guise of the Ro-tay-yo (a huge mosquito). It first appeared among the Tuscarora along the Neuse river. It flew about with vast wings, making a loud noise, with a long stinger; and on whomsoever it lighted it sucked out all the blood and killed them. Many warriors were destroyed in this way, and all attempts made to subdue it were vain; but at length it retired of itself. Next they heard that it appeared about the fort at Onondaga, where it also destroyed many lives, until Tarenyawagon made a visit to the ruler of the Onondagas. The great mosquito happened to come flying about the fort as usual at that time. Tarenyawago immediately made his attack, but such was the rapidity of its flight, that he could scarcely keep in sight of it. He chased it around the borders of the great lakes, towards the sun-setting, and around the great country at large, east and west. At last he overtook it, and took his strong bow and sent an arrow which struck him through the heart and killed him, near Gen-an-do-a (the salt lake of Onondaga). From the blood flowing out on this occasion were the present species of small mosquito originated.
I have now related a few of the tragedies of the dark recesses of the forest, from the many that our tradition relates.
There was also a little old man of singular appearance that frequented among them at their ball plays, and did not seem to be inclined to make acquaintance with any one, but kept by himself and appeared to be mild and humble. At length this man became very sick with putrefying sores from head to foot and was very loathsome. Nobody knew who he was or where he came from: he had no home; he gave his name as Qua-ra, or Rabbit: he went from house to house of all the different clans or tribes in the nation, as for instance, the Eel, Snipe, Beaver, Turtle, Wolf, Deer. When he would approach the house, seemingly to go in, they would loathe him to enter, and when he came to the doorstep he would seem to hear their thoughts and then return; thus he was repulsed from all the houses of the above clans, he finally came to the house of the Bear clan. When the mistress of the house observed him coming, she had pity on him, and presently prepared a bed for him with the best deerskins she had; when he came to the door he knew her hospitable heart and went in. She immediately assured him of his welcome in her meanly hut, and that she was ready to do everything in her power to relieve his distress, and appointed his lodge where he had laid himself nearly exhausted. He then told her to go and get the root of a certain kind of plant, which she immediately did and prepared according to his direction, which he took and readily recovered. He then went through a series of diseases, directing her as before to get the different kind of medicines for the different diseases. Lastly, he became sick with that fatal disease, consumption. This he said was incurable, and he must die. He then told her he was a messenger from Tarenyawagon, to show them the diseases that they should be subjected to, and also the medicine to cure them. And also to tell them the predictions of their fate and doom. Said he could not withhold the water from his eyes, or keep from quaking when he thought of their irrevocable doom to which they were destined, and said: "There is a habitation beyond these great waters towards the sun-rising, which are inhabited by beings of very pale faces, and are looking only to themselves, have pity for nobody, and make their delight in doing mischief. They have killed Rah-wah-ne-yo (God); they mocked him and done all manner of bad things to him, and finally, they fastened him to a tree until he died. But death and the grave had not power to hold him. He arose and lives again, and he has gone to the world above, in those happy hunting grounds where all good O-qua-ho-wa (Indians), will go when they die, and will see him as he is.
"Now this class of pale-faces will come across the great waters and make their abode on this island, and will bring poison to give you to drink, which will poison the spirit and kill the body. They will kill your husbands, brothers and sons, and drive you away to the sun-setting, and will deprive the children that are coming behind, off their domain. They will drive you until you are in the great salt water up to your waist. Oh, hostess, this is the final doom of your great nation.
"And now as for you, Oh, mother, I have no words that I can utter, to express the sincere gratitude of my inmost soul. I have nothing to give to compensate you for all the tenderness you have given me. But my blessings I will leave with you. I place in the midst of your clan, the Bear, a majestic pine tree, which is ever green, and as the top reaches above all other trees, so will your clan be. Wherever the nation will be driven to, your clan will multiply above all others, and be the ruler of the nation. This is all I have to deliver unto you. I now commend myself to that Great Spirit that has made us all, who ruleth above."
Thus ended the last messenger of Tarenyawagon, who is now basking in the pleasures of that hunting ground in the world above.
Tarenyawagon united in one person the power of a God and a man, and gave him the expressive name of the Holder of the Heavens, and was capable of assuming any form or shape that he chose, but appeared to them only in the form of a man, and taught them hunting, gardening, and the knowledge of the arts of war. He imparted to them the knowledge of the laws and government of the Great Spirit, and gave them directions and encouragement how to fulfill their duties and obligations. He gave them corn, beans, and fruits of various kinds, with the knowledge of planting those fruits. He taught them how to kill and to cook the game. He made the forest free to all the tribes to hunt, and removed obstructions from the streams. He took his position, sometimes, on the top of high cliffs, springing, if needs be, over frightful chasms; and he flew, as it were, over great lakes in a wonderful canoe of immaculate whiteness and of magic power.
Having finished his commission with the Tuscaroras at Cautanoh, in North Carolina, and the other five families, which were left at the north, he came down to closer terms and intimacy with the Onondagas. He resolved to lay aside his divine character and live among them, that he might exemplify the maxims which he had taught. And for this purpose he selected a handsome spot of ground on the southern banks of Cross Lake, New York. Here he built his cabin, and from the shores of this lake he went into the forest, like the rest of his companions, in quest of game and fish. He took a wife of the Onondagas, by whom he had an only daughter, whom he tenderly loved, and most kindly and carefully treated and instructed, so that she was known far and near as his favorite child, and was regarded almost as a goddess. The excellence of his character, and his great sagacity and good counsels, led the people to regard him with veneration, and they gave him, in his sublunary character, the name of Hi-a-wat-ha (a wise man). People came to him from all quarters, and his abode was thronged by all ages and conditions who came for advice.
He became the first chief of all the land, and whomsoever he made his companions and friends were likewise clothed with the authority of chiefs in the tribe. In this manner all power came naturally into his hands, and the tribe rejoiced that they had so wise and good a man as their ruler. For in those days each tribe was independent of all others; they had not yet formed a league, but fought and made war with each other.
Nothing that belonged to Hiawatha, in his character of Tarenyawagon, was more remarkable than his light and magic canoe, which shone with a supernatural luster, and in which he had performed so many of his extraordinary feats. This canoe was laid aside when he came to fix his residence at Cross Lake, and never used it but for great and extraordinary purposes. When great councils were called, and he assembled the wise men to deliberate together, the sacred canoe was carefully lifted from the grand lodge; and after these occasions were ended, it was carefully returned to the same receptacle, on the shoulders of men, who felt honored in being the bearers of such a precious burden.
Thus passed away many years, and every year saw the people increasing in numbers, skill, arts and bravery. It was among the Onondagas that Tarenyawagon had located himself, although he regarded the other tribes as friends and brothers; he had become identified as an adopted member of this particular tribe. Under his teaching and influence they became the first among all the original tribes, and rose to the highest distinction in every art which was known to or prized by the Akonoshuni (Iroquois). They were the wisest counselors, the best orators, the most expert hunters, and the bravest warriors. They also afforded the highest examples of obedience to the laws of the Great Spirit. If offences took place, Hiawatha redressed them, and his wisdom and moderation preserved the tribe from feuds. Hence, the Onondagas were early noted among all the tribes for their pre-eminence. He appeared to devote his chief attention to them, that he might afterwards make them examples to the others, in arts and wisdom. They were foremost in the overthrow of the Stonish Giants and the killing of the great Serpent. To be an Onondaga was the highest honor.
While Hiawatha was thus living in domestic life quietly among the people of the hills, and administering their simple government with wisdom, they became alarmed by the sudden news of the approach of a furious and powerful enemy from north of the great lakes. As the enemy advanced, they made an indiscriminate slaughter of men, women and children. The people fled from their villages a short time before them, and there was no heart in the people to make a stand against such powerful and ruthless invaders. In this emergency, they fled to Hiawatha for his advice. He counseled them to call a general council of all the tribes from the east and west. "For," said he, "our strength is not in the war club and arrows alone, but in wise counsels." He appointed a place on the banks of Onondaga Lake for the meeting. It was a clear eminence from which there was a wide prospect. Runners were dispatched in every direction, and the chiefs, warriors and headmen forthwith assembled in great numbers, bringing with them, in the general alarm, their women and children. Fleets of canoes were seen on the bosom of the lake, and every interior warpath was kept open by the foot-prints of the different tribes, hurrying to obey the summons of Hiawatha. All but the wise man himself had been there for three days, anxiously awaiting the arrival of Hiawatha, when a messenger was dispatched after him. They found him gloomy and depressed. Some great burden appeared to hang on his mind. He told them that evil lay on his path, and that he had fearful forebodings of ill-fortune. He felt that he was called to make some great sacrifice, but he did not know what it was, it seemed to be hid from him. Least of all did he think it was to be his daughter: ever careful of her, he bade her kindly to accompany him. Nothing happened to hinder, or at all interrupt their voyage. The Talismanic canoe, which held them, gilded silently down the waters of the Seneca; not a paddle was necessary to give it impetus, while it pursued the downward course of the stream till they reached the point of the lake outlet. At this point Hiawatha took his paddle and gave it impetus against the current, until they entered on the bright and calm surface of the Onondaga, cradled, as this blue sheet of water is, among the lofty and far-swelling hills. When the white canoe of the venerable chief appeared, a shout of welcome rang among those hills. The day was calm and serene. No wind ruffled the lake, and scarcely a cloud floated in the sky above. But while the wise man was measuring his steps towards the place designated for the council, and while ascending from the water's edge, a rumbling and low sound was heard, as if it were caused by the approach of a violent, rushing wind. Instantly all the eyes were turned upwards, where a small and compact mass of cloudy darkness appeared. It gathered in size and velocity as it approached, and appeared to be directed inevitably to fall in the midst of the assembly. Every one fled in consternation but Hiawatha and his daughter. He stood erect, with ornaments waving in his frontlet, and besought his daughter calmly to await the issue, "for it is impossible," said he, "to escape the power of the Great Spirit. If he has determined our destruction we cannot, by running, fly from him." She modestly assented and they stood together, while horror was depicted in the faces of the others. But the force of the descending body was that of a sudden storm. They had hardly taken the resolution to halt when an immense bird, with long, extended wings, came down with swoop. This gigantic agent of the sky came with such force that the assembly felt the shock. The girl being in a nature, and embodied in the combination of the Terrestial and Celestial nature, was beautiful and fascinating in her looks and form, was borne away by this Celestial Bird to be seen no more upon the earth. But Hiawatha was inconsolable for his loss. He grieved sorely, day and night, and wore a desponding and dejected countenance. But these were only faint indications of the feelings of his heart. He threw himself upon the ground, and refused to be comforted. He seemed dumb with melancholy, and the people were concerned of his life. He spoke nothing; he made no answers to questions put to him, and laid still as if dead. After several days
the council appointed a certain merry-hearted Chief to make him a visit, and to whisper a word of consolation in his ears to arouse him from his stupor. The result was successful. He approached with ceremonies and induced him to arise, and named the time when the council would convene. Yet haggard with grief, he called for refreshments and ate. He then adjusted his wardrobe and head-dress and went to the council. He drew his robe of wolf-skin gracefully around him, and walked to his seat at the head of the assembled chiefs with a majestic step. Stillness and the most profound attention reigned in the council while he presided, and the discussion opened and proceeded. The subject of the invasion was handled by several of the ablest counselors and the bravest warriors. Various plans were proposed to defeat the enemy. Hiawatha listened with silence until all had finished speaking. His opinion was then asked. After a brief allusion of the calamity which had befallen him through the descent of the great bird by the Great Spirit, he spoke to the following effect:
"I have listened to the words of the wise men and brave chiefs, but it is not fitting that we should do a thing of so much importance in haste; it is a subject demanding calm reflection and mature deliberation. Let us postpone the decision for one day. During this time we will weigh well the words of the speakers who have already spoken. If they are good, I will then approve of them. If they are not, I will then open to you my plan. It is one which I have reflected on, and feel confident that it will insure safety."
When another day had expired, the council again met. Hiawatha entered the assembly with even more than ordinary attention, and every eye was fixed upon him, when he began to address the council in the following words:
"Friends and Brothers: You being members of many tribes, you have come from a great distance; the voice of war has aroused you up; you are afraid of your homes, your wives and your children; you tremble for your safety. Believe me, I am with you. My heart beats with your hearts. We are one. We have one common object. We come to promote our common interest, and to determine how this can be best done.
"To oppose those hordes of northern tribes, singly and alone, would prove certain destruction. We can make no progress in that way. We must unite ourselves into one common band of brothers. We must have but one voice. Many voices makes confusion. We must have one fire, one pipe and one war club. This will give us strength. If our warriors are united they can defeat the enemy and drive them from our land; if we do this, we are safe.
"Onondaga, you are the people sitting under the shadow of the Great Tree , whose branches spread far and wide, and whose roots sink deep into the earth. You shall be the first nation, because you are warlike and mighty.
"Oneida, and you, the people who recline your bodies against the Everlasting Stone , that cannot be moved, shall be the second nation, because you always give good counsel.
"Seneca, and you, the people who have your habitation at the foot of the Great Mountain , and are overshadowed by its crags, shall be the third nation, because you are all greatly gifted in speech.
"Cayuga, you, whose dwelling is in the Dark Forest , and whose home is everywhere, shall be the fourth nation, because of your superior cunning in hunting.
"Mohawk, and you, the people who live in the open country, and possess much wisdom, shall be the fifth nation, because you understand better the art of raising corn and beans and making cabins.
"You five great and powerful nations, with your tribes, must unite and have one common interest, and no foes shall disturb or subdue you.
"And you of the different nations of the south, and you of the west, may place yourselves under our protection, and we will protect you. We earnestly desire the alliance and friendship of you all.
"And from you, Squaw-ki-haws (being a remote branch of the Seneca Nation), being the people who are as the Feeble Bushes , shall be chosen, a Virgin, who shall be the peacemaker for all the nations of the earth, and more particularly the favored Ako-no-shu-ne, which name this confederacy shall ever sustain. If we unite in one band the Great Spirit will smile upon us, and we shall be free, prosperous and happy; but if we shall remain as we are we shall incur his displeasure. We shall be enslaved, and perhaps annihilated forever.
"Brothers, these are the words of Hiawatha. Let them sink deep into your hearts. I have done."
A deep and impressive silence followed the delivery of this speech. On the following day the council again assembled to act on it. High wisdom recommended this deliberation.
The union of the tribes into one confederacy was discussed and unanimously adopted. To denote the character and intimacy of the union they employed the figure of a single council-house, or lodge, whose boundaries be co-extensive with their territories. Hence the name of
Ako-no-shu-ne, who were called the Iroquois
The great bird which visited them from heaven brought a precious gift to the warriors in the white plumes which she shed at the visit. Every warrior, as he approached the spot where they fell, picked up a feather of snowy white to adorn his crown; and the celestial visitant thus became the means of furnishing the aspirants of military fame with an emblem which was held in the highest estimation. Succeeding generations imbibed the custom from this incident to supply themselves with a plumage approaching it as nearly as possible; they selected the plume of the white heron.
At the formation of the confederacy Ato-ta-rho, being considered next in wisdom and all other traits of character which constitutes the necessary qualifications of an honored Sachem, was ordained as the head Sachem of the confederacy, which office has been transmitted down to succeeding generations of the Onondaga Nation to the present time.
Hiawatha, the guardian and founder of the league, having now accomplished the will of the Great Spirit, and the withdrawal of his daughter having been regarded by him as a sign that his mission was ended, he immediately prepared to make his final departure. Before the great council, which had adopted his advice just before dispersing, he arose, with a dignified air, and addressed them in the following manner:
"Friends and Brothers: I have now fulfilled my mission here below; I have furnished you seeds and grains for your gardens; I have removed obstructions from your waters, and made the forest habitable by teaching you how to expel its monsters; I have given you fishing places and hunting grounds; I have instructed you in the making and using of war implements; I have taught you how to cultivate corn, and many other arts and gifts. I have been allowed by the Great Spirit to communicate to you. Last of all, I have aided you to form a league of friendship and union. If you preserve this, and admit no foreign element of power by the admission of other nations, you will always be free, numerous and happy. If other tribes and nations are admitted to your councils, they will sow the seed of jealousy and discord, and you will become few, feeble and enslaved.
"Friends and brothers, these are the last words you will hear from the lips of Hiawatha. The Great Creator of our bodies calls me to go; I have patiently awaited his summons; I am ready to go. Farewell."
As the voice of the wise man ceased, sweet strains of music from the air burst on the ears of the multitude. The whole sky appeared to be filled with melody; and while all eyes were directed to catch glimpses of the sights, and enjoy strains of the celestial music that filled the sky, Hiawatha was seen, seated in his snow-white canoe, amid the air, rising, rising with every choral chant that burst out. As he rose the sound of the music became more soft and faint, until he vanished amid the summer clouds, and the melody ceased. Thus terminated the labors and cares of the long-cherished memory of Ta-ren-ya-wa-gon.

Prime Minister Ewa Kopacz has joined other dignitaries in signing a condolence book at the French Embassy in Warsaw in tribute to the victims of the 7 January Paris shootings.
''I am united in grief with the families and loved ones of the victims, as well as French society,'' the prime minister wrote.
''We are with you at this difficult time.
The condolence book was also signed by Speaker of Parliament Radoslaw Sikorski, and President Bronislaw Komorowski.
The latter told journalists that "we are with France not only in our thoughts and expressions of sympathy, but also in our firm intent on preventing any terrorist activities in Europe and the world.
''Therefore we are observing what is happening with grave concern and I hope that we will not have to deal with an escalation, and a spiral of similar events,'' he added.
Meanwhile, two days after the attack on the office of satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo, the manhunt continues for two suspects.
Counter terrorism police made house to house searches in the northern French countryside on Thursday following alleged sightings of the two brothers at a petrol station in the town of l'Aisne.
It has been reported that Said Kouachi, 34, spent several months in Yemen in 2011, where he was apparently trained by al-Qaeda.
Twelve people, including two police officers died in the attack on the office of the French weekly.

Q: Maven- Getting dependencies from pom file I need to get all the dependencies of a project, so to my knowledge, everything under
<dependencies> ... <dependencies> and <exclusions> ... </exclusions>

Is it possible to get all of these from the https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/ by going to a specific project's pom file and parsing it or do I have to get the effective pom of that project and only then will I have all the dependencies?
EDIT 1: How can I generate the effective pom for lets say, 100 packages? Currently, I'm using this command :
mvn -DgroupId=junit -DartifactId=junit -Dversion=4.13.1 dependency:get # get the pom/jar
cd .m2/repository/junit/junit/4.13.1
cp junit-4.13.1.pom pom.xml
mvn help:effective-pom -Doutput=effective-pom.xml

How could I write something that does this for 100 different inputs lets say, so I dont have to manually do this 100 times

A: You can list all the dependencies quite easily by taking advantage of the  maven-dependency-plugin. You just have to open a shell and execute:
mvn -f my-project/pom.xml dependency:list

or
mvn -f my-project/pom.xml dependency:tree

Promotion or steering-based energy policy (ProSTEP)
|In Consumer Behavior, Economics & Policy
The ProSTEP project assesses and compares promotion- and steering-based regulatory instruments as envisaged in the context of the "Energy Strategy 2050" in terms of their socio-economic redistributive and efficiency effects.
Whereas current policy measures rely heavily on promotion-based instruments such as command-and-control measures and subsidies, the future regulatory system, with an expected phase-in starting in 2020, is envisaged to be primarily based on market-related policy instruments. The necessary social and political consensus for the "Energy Strategy 2050" will also depend on the socio-economic distributional and efficiency implications of current and planned regulatory measures in the area of energy and climate policy.
Targets and policy instruments under "Energy Strategy 2050" until year 2030
The ProSTEP project uses quantitative and empirical economic analysis to assess the performance of promotion- and steering-based energy policy instruments. The project will contribute by:
providing insights into the fundamental question of choice and design of energy and climate policy instruments in Switzerland for the second phase of the "Energy Strategy 2050"
uncovering the hidden distributional effects of promotion and command-and-control measures compared to a possible future steering-based system of energy policy
helping to identify robust policy designs in light of uncertainties about future economic and technological developments
providing relevant impact analysis to stakeholders (e.g., households, companies, industries) at different levels (federal, cantonal and municipal).
The methodological framework combines concepts from (micro-) economic theory with applied tools from general equilibrium modelling and micro-simulation analysis of household behaviour.
More details about the project are available
The ESC member responsible for this project is Prof. Dr. Sebastian Rausch, Professor of Economics / Energy Economics, ETH Zurich
The Chair of Economics/Energy Economics conducts applied economic research of energy and environmental issues with an emphasis on the costs, benefits, evaluation, and design of energy and environmental policies, especially economic incentive measures. Focal themes are climate change, including the design of cost-effective policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and (macro-) economic aspects of the energy transition.


The digital strategy for Surrey County Council (UK) includes working towards a platform of common functional components and alignment with Government Digital Service design principles. Identifying an exemplar project was the first step towards migration to the cloud.
Surrey County Council's Emergency Management Team has a role to play in responding and liaising with the affected councils among the county's 11 districts and boroughs. Data about vulnerable people is held by a variety of local authority, community care and National Health Service organisations.
However, the data lifecycle was highly manual, from getting the data, integrating and de-duplicating it, to validating it and distributing it to the field. While the team met best-practice standards to process most datasets within an hour of receipt, it wanted to do more to overcome the limitations of the manual process.
Automating data sharing could also help test new ways of working in the shift from in-house IT to cloud service procurement, giving the Council the exemplar case it was looking for.
New ways of working was not just about a new level of systematic data sharing between the council and its partners, but the first use of an external developer, of Agile development, and of cloud hosting. While nobody knew precisely what infrastructure would be needed, but it had to be cost-effective that could be deployed quickly, altered easily and turned off without penalty. The Council opted for an alpha version to test the concept and approach.
After eight weeks, the council had a functioning prototype that took minutes to import data, merge and cleanse it, validate it (against a trusted address database), and display the results in a series of dashboards suited to the Emergency Management Team's gold, silver and bronze responder levels. Dashboards were accessible via PC and mobile device, and integrated with the Fire and Rescue Service in-cab mapping system, which could cache records for secure offline access.
Infrastructure flexibility to support Agile development.
Confidence in the security of sensitive personal information.
Speed of deployment — and the ability to walk away without penalty.
Solution provider: UKCloud, meeting specific security assurances with a security evidence pack: ISO 9001, 20000 and 27001 certification; Cyber Essentials Plus certification; CESG approval of the UKCloud platform design; Assessments by a number of government bodies; Results of full annual CHECK penetration tests and PSN compliance and connectivity.


Edward Mallet came up with the idea of a subscription based workplace legislation specialist when he was a barrister practicing in England.
Now, just four years after the company's inception in Australia, Employsure has been awarded the Growth Company of the Year for 2015, now servicing over 7,000 clients nationally.
"Like any employment lawyer, many of the cases that I worked on were relatively low value, such as unfair dismissal claims, and did not justify the legal cost of getting advice and representation on the old model," Mallet told NZ Lawyer.
Small claims not worth the legal fees were rife, Mallet said, and as a result he began to explore other ways to adequately service his clients.
The result was Employsure which operates a 24/7 advice line and works as a subscription, similar to legal insurance.
Across the Pacific, many Americans don't access legal services because of the high costs and the number of working lawyers has dropped by more than 50,000 in the last decade.
Back in 2010, LegalZoom found a way to tackle both.
They find existing attorneys, typically in small, suburban offices to man their advice line, offering subscribers unlimited 30-minute phone calls for a small fee, and the option to hire a lawyer for additional work.
"We want to democratize law," said CEO John Suh.
The lawyers, who can easily lose their contracts following a poor review, can come and go whenever they like.
"Unlike a more traditional law firm setting, there's no expectation of obligation to stay late," said A.J. Darab, admitting that his pay cut was worth it.


Intellectual cutbacks within schizophrenia present an essential impact on end result intended for people and stay mainly untreated by simply latest medicine. There may be so a specific requirement for enhancements around therapy in this aspect of the condition. We have proven solid disabilities around set-shifting ability calculated by damaged efficiency inside the intra/extra-dimensional task using the CANTAB throughout first-episode psychosis sufferers. It might be assesses guideline exchange plus reversal understanding, determined by visible splendour with models along with lines. Our own answers are sustained by additional reports demonstrating that patients by using schizophrenia display affected set-shifting power. The rat model of your attentional set-shifting task had been adapted by way of Birrell and Darkish (2001) and is also a good analogue of your Iowa Unit card Organizing Test out. The actual Becomes gumption possesses determined that this mouse test can be utilized with preclinical assessments to evaluate innovative beneficial strategies. 1st research while using perceptual attentional set-shifting undertaking demonstrated that lesions on your skin in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) develop a not bothered deficit while in the extra-dimensional change (EDS) stage (Birrell and also Brownish, 2001). In the clinical we've got demonstrated some sort of frugal lack with female test subjects inside the EDS period pursuing the 6 day time sub-chronic phencyclidine (PCP) procedure routine; this particular debts appeared to be attenuated by means of clozapine and also risperidone, although appeared to be unaltered simply by haloperidol. This specific PCP unit with girl rodents has been discovered for you to produce sturdy mental loss along with neurobiological improvements regarding relevance in order to schizophrenia, as well as exhibits effectiveness on the variety of book objectives Essentially the most prevalent nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) would be the ?4?2 and also ?7 subtypes, each of which indicate diminished amounts in schizophrenia. Those two receptor subtypes are likely involved with mental handling. Notice Leiser ainsi que ing. The year just gone to get a current review of your factor connected with ?7 nAChRs around mental digesting associated with significance for you to schizophrenia. We certainly have just lately proven the fact that ?7 nAChR 100 % agonist, PNU-282987, reverses a sub-chronic PCP-induced debts in 2 cognitive lab tests: novel subject acceptance plus operant letting go finding out. It is proposed that will full nicotinic receptor agonists may possibly deliver sub-optimal advantages because of continual triggering and/or desensitisation with the focus on receptor (Harris et aussi ing., '04; Fast and Lester, 2009; Cruz ainsi que ing., 2009; White-colored along with Levin, 04); this particular issue poses a medicinal issue with admiration in order to long-term treatment. Nevertheless, all of us indicated that the full ?7 nAChR agonist, PNU-282987, appeared to be good at reversing the actual PCP-induced lack in new subject acknowledgement right after oncedaily government intended for 17 nights, implying that that will repeated triggering in the targeted over the 15-day time period won't suggest building up a tolerance. Even so, it is somewhat quick as well as doesn't always reveal your healthcare scenario, wherein clients might have gotten a specific remedy for years. An alternative method of enhance ?7 nAChR purpose is as simple as augmenting results of acetylcholine as a result of optimistic allosteric modulation (PAM) that may enhance a endogenous cholinergic overall tone without specifically initiating kinase inhibitor. Several compounds happen to be revealed in order to definitely modulate ?7 nAChRs, such as PNU-120596 (Hurst et alabama., 2006), which along with galantamine. PNU-120596 shows your new favourable allosteric modulator with the ?7 nAChRs, which often can increase the optimum agonist-evoked current and slower a weathering of the power while in the carried on position associated with an agonist. The goal of this study was to investigate efficacy from the particular ?7 nAChR beneficial allosteric modulator, PNU-120596, in a style of importance to be able to mental loss throughout schizophrenia, particularly PCP-induced profits / losses inside the perceptual attentional setshifting endeavor.
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) usually are seen as a several transmembrane domains in which extend to the actual fat bilayer. These kind of websites usually are linked simply by intra- and extracellular loops. Your GPCR excellent household features rhodopsin, serotonin, dopamine receptors, histamine, opioid receptor, as well as adrenergic receptors. These kinds of receptors mediate very various mobile replies which includes discomfort, vision, blood pressure levels, spirits, plus allergies. Tissue layer receptors are certainly difficult to decide upon and to night out merely rhodopsin has been portrayed crystallographically.A single Consequently, various other procedures need to be used to identify major connections regarding the receptor as well as ligand. The particular adrenergic receptors (ARs) usually are GPCRs in which interact to biogenic amines which include epinephrine as well as adrenaline. ARs get in search of associates inside some subclasses, a alpha One, alpha dog Two, in addition to 'beta'.A few These receptors mediate responses offering unhealthy weight, high blood pressure levels, along with noncancerous prostatic hyperplasia, making these kind of receptors superb goals intended for intelligent pill design. It is actually generally approved which GPCRs have a couple of claims, R in addition to R*. From the R talk about, the receptor is usually sedentary along with sleeping. That conformation from the receptor matches all of our non-active product, therefore we propose that it is going to share data more effectively by using antagonists, specifically BMY7378. In order to activate the particular receptor, your conformation alter arises providing increase towards the R* state. The actual R* express matches this active unit, so we propose that it is going to communicate more proficiently along with agonists, particularly epinephrine. One homology model will never depict both R as well as R* states in this method. Several groupings have developed homology types of GPCRs including the ARs. These models provide great helices, bacteriorhodopsin, as well as around the ravenscroft structure with bovine rhodopsin. Following your design involving bovine rhodopsin had been printed,Just one making use of bacteriorhodopsin turned obviously limited given that bacteriorhodopsin is not a GPCR not is there large series homology in order to GPCRs. Bissantz ainsi que 's. came up an online verification connected with about three homology styles applying a few docking packages and 7 credit rating capabilities. Your receptor products ended up being depending on the very structure involving bovine rhodopsin. This process might decide on antagonists from the data bank. It had not been capable of choose almost any agonists. It is obvious from this review which the crystal construction with bovine rhodopsin (PDB Identity 1F88)A single as being a design generates models in which symbolize the exercise-free express of your receptor. By simply pairing the work with our unique past label of this EDG1 receptor, we presume we are able to correctly product the particular communications of equally agonists along with antagonists using this a couple of style technique. To imitate the biochemical principle, our group has evolved a couple homology style program to recognize one of the keys affairs concerning alpha1D AR using both epinephrine (agonist) and BMY737819 (antagonist). Epinephrine and also BMY7378, although structurally unique, have excessive interest in a alpha1D receptor (Ki 27 and 6.Six nM, correspondingly). Most people propose that a productive unit, depending on the recently publicized EDG1 (S1P1) product, will interact more proficiently through an agonist. A lazy type (based on the ravenscroft construction connected with bovine rhodopsin 1F88) can share data more efficiently by having an antagonist. We discovered the result regarding protonating the amine nitrogens associated with either epinephrine and BMY7378 to ascertain the result associated with complete hydrogens on docking. The results involving makeup simulations of the docking processes is likewise provided. we've created a 2 design method to describe a productive plus inactive claims with the alpha1D AR. This docking studies established that the particular active type interacted better using epinephrine using hydrogen bonding, good smelling affairs, and also position while in the receptor style as the conditions for choosing the ideal buildings. The methylene hydroxyl plus the amino multiple epinephrine exclusively interacted along with Asp176 which can be based on Strader et aussi ing.35 Fragrant residues, which includes Phe388, are from helices 3, Six, in addition to Several and also the extracellular cycle among helices 4 along with 5 various. Waugh avec alabama. exhibited the need for Phe388 along with Phe384.Twenty-eight A sedentary type interacted more efficiently using the not bothered villain BMY7378. Protonated BMY7378 acquired hydrogen connecting together with Trp172 and Lys236 of the exercise-free design. The particular villain also interacted using helices A few along with Your five and also the cycle place concerning helices 6 and 8. The fragrant residues shown by this research for agonist along with antagonist executed offer a similar experience yet not absolutely the overlap golf. The actual processes ended up being confronted with not one but two character simulations, and all processes looked after hydrogen binding and also savoury affairs through the simulations. You can finish on the character sim which the complexes are usually realistic houses.Thirty-four Your protonation condition in the ligand drastically influenced each hydrogen relationship as well as great smelling relationships. We figured that great smelling communications ended up being of great importance while in the capturing affinity regarding both equally agonists along with antagonists.

Historian to unpack history of racist ideas in Krieger Lecture
Share this story on Twitter
By: Yvette Lisa Ndlovu, A&S Communications
Ibram X. Kendi, professor of history and international relations and the founding director of the Antiracist Research and Policy Center at American University, will deliver the Krieger Lecture in American Political Culture April 15. His book, "Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America," provides a complex background and exploration of the notions of racial superiority. The event will take place at 4:45 p.m. in the Rhodes-Rawlings Auditorium.
"One of America's most important historians and public intellectuals, Ibram Kendi's scholarship mines the rich vein that is the nation's relationship with race and racism. Professor Kendi's work is innovatively conceived, rigorously researched, and forcefully presented," said Derek Chang, associate professor of history. "His book, 'Stamped from the Beginning,' like his essays in The Atlantic, The New York Times, the Washington Post, and other publications, is accessible, nuanced, and unsparing in its analysis. We're so fortunate to have Professor Kendi deliver this year's Krieger Lecture. His deep understanding of and insights about racism and anti-racism have never been more timely or more important."
Kendi was only 34 when "Stamped from the Beginning" won the 2016 National Book Award for Nonfiction, making him the youngest winner of the award. He is also an ideas columnist at The Atlantic and has been a visiting professor at Brown University, a 2013 National Academy of Education/ Spencer Postdoctoral Fellow and a postdoctoral fellow at the Rutgers Center for Historical Analysis. In 2011, Kendi had a residency at The John W.Kluge Center at the Library of Congress at the American Historical Association.
The Krieger lecture was endowed by Sanford '65 and Carol Krieger in 2000 and is sponsored by the American Studies Program. The event is free and open to the public.

Often, one person's actions can spark change in the lives of a whole community. In the case of one of our very own teammates, Cheryl Cody, this action sparked the change needed for one of Chicago's most vulnerable populations—the children.
Cheryl attended Villagewide four years ago, at which time she was touched by the impactful author and speaker Liz Murray, who spoke about her personal connection with childhood hunger and how an incredible program called Blessings in a Backpack is helping to fill a void left for underprivileged children—those children who receive breakfast and lunch programs during the week at school, but are often left hungry through the weekend because they lack resources at home. With support of the program, these children are given enough food each Friday to ward off that hunger.
After hearing about Blessings in Backpack, Cheryl contacted multiple Chicago schools already participating in the program and eventually narrowed her focus to one school most in need of assistance—Washington Elementary School.
With the help of Team Fusion, Cheryl organized an auction the following year, which ended up raising more than $10,000 from teammate-donated items.
Each year at the Fusion Directors meeting, two auctions (one silent and one live) are held to raise funds for the Blessings in a Backpack program at Washington Elementary School. Over the past four years—from Cheryl's vision and through the generosity of the Fusion Directors, DVPs and special guests—the Fusion team has been able to donate more than $50,000, along with jackets, boots and non-perishables.
Cheryl's efforts have not only made a vital impact on Blessings in a Backpack and Washington Elementary School, but her outpouring of altruism has spread to other teammates, as well as the community as a whole.
Teammates present a donation to members of Washington Elementary School in Chicago, Ill. Each year at the Fusion Directors meeting, two auctions are held to raise funds for the Blessings in a Backpack program at the school.

Jimmy Kimmel delivered a heartfelt monologue Monday night in response to the mass shooting in his hometown of Las Vegas in which at least 59 people were killed and hundreds more injured.
With his voice trembling, the visibly distraught ABC late-night host addressed the shooting during "Jimmy Kimmel Live": "Here we are again – in the aftermath of another terrible, inexplicable, shocking and painful tragedy," he said. "This time – in Las Vegas. Which happens to be my hometown.
"Of course," he continued, "we pray for the victims – and for their families and friends and we wonder 'why,' even though there's probably no way to ever know 'why' a human being would do something like this to other human beings, who were at a concert having fun and listening to music."

The sliding sash is an integral part of history and architecture, but it can suffer the same damages that other types of frames and windows would when exposed to the elements. The best investment you can make is to have your sashes regularly maintained, serviced and repaired by a reputable and an experienced sash company. To manage sash window repairs London homes and commercial buildings are encouraged to seek the assistance and guidance of experts in sash window care.
The sash window consists of sliding components and not the traditional hinges you find with regular windows. Most sashes consist of cords and weights assisting in its opening and closing, but over time these units can take some strain and will need replacing. These features are a significant part of many types of older buildings and homes with a historic heritage, requiring effective restoration.
Sash windows are susceptible to all types of damages from minor changes in appearance to an inability to seal or secure these windows. Time must be taken to carefully examine the functionality of windows including its structure and determine the reasons for the structural problems. Part of scheduled maintenance involves clearing excessive dust and dirt while looking for excess paint and varnish that affect the ability for windows to seal.
A common problem of sashes that lack the correct maintenance, is the formation of chilly draughts. When a cool breeze creeps into the house, it makes internal temperature regulation impossible and causes major discomfort during the winter months when trying to stay warm. Do not proceed with your own seals and draught proofing as you could cause additional damage or compromise the integrity of the frame.
Professional sash window repairmen specialize in performing routine maintenance and fixtures for all types of period windows. The historic significance of sashes means it should be dealt with according to its original design standards that very few window and frame companies can offer. Ensuring the specialists hired provide quality services with skill and experience in restoring and fixing sash windows, you can rest assured the authenticity and beauty are maintained.
Owners of sashes are advised to paint these wood frames with a quality product to protect against the elements. The most common wood material incorporated in design is timber and these types of wood can easily absorb moisture or degrade with excessive sun and frost exposure. It is best to have these frames professionally maintained and painted, as such technique delivers the greatest layer of protection against weather related wear and tear.
Painting sashes is a cost effective strategy to keeping frames waterproofed but must be completed with precision technique. If product is too thick, it can affect the sealing qualities of sashes while extra layers tend to bubble and crack. Keeping the paint thinly applied and it should simply seal the wood rather than interfere with its sliding operation.
Without the correct tools, it is difficult to clean and paint sash windows owing to it intricate components and fixtures. Professionals in the industry offer the technique and the equipment necessary to protect from painting the glass panes and causing additional problems. Keeping the frames clean and well managed will minimize complications and ensure an elegant exterior is achieved.
Where repairs are possible on sash windows, have a professional restore its former glory rather than replace it. Window features with a historical attachment have a story to tell and represent a significant part of English architecture. Maintaining its originality is key to upholding the appeal and the significance of such designs.
Sash windows are more affordable to have repaired than replaced and must be discussed with a professional window maintenance and installation service. Fixtures to the frames, cords and sliding operations prove more cost effective than removing the frames and having a new window installed. Do not experience the hassles and expense of removing windows that can easily be restored to its former condition and provide an undeniable property charm.
The correct practices and procedures are delivered with a guaranteed professional and high quality service. Sash windows are found in most older buildings but many modern homes are incorporating a combination of Edwardian design. The exceptional value of sashes and the unique beauty it provides, makes the restoration, repair and maintenance an invaluable decision.

Q: How to check if a string contains all of these: digits, alphabets and special characters? I'm trying to build a simple password validator:
Program prints

*

*"Very weak" if password has less than 8 characters and all numbers.

*"Weak" if password has less than 8 characters and all alphabets.

*"Strong" if password has 8 or more characters and contains numbers and alphabets.

*"Very strong" if password has 8 or more characters and contains numbers, alphabets and special characters.
As you can see, I know how to check if a string has either one of the three types of characters.
How can I check if a string has two or all three?
#include <iostream>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <cstring>

int main()
{
    std::cout << "Enter your new password: ";
    std:: string password{};
    std::cin >> password;

    bool veryweak;
    bool weak;
    bool strong;
    bool verystrong;

    if (password.length() < 8)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < password.length(); i++)
            {
                if (isdigit(password[i]))
                {
                    veryweak = true;
                }

                else if (isalpha(password[i]))
                {
                    weak = true;
                }
            }
    }

    else if (password.length() >= 8)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < password.length(); i++)
        {
            //if (password has digits and alphabets)
                //strong = true;

            //if (password has digits and alphabet and special characters)
                //verystrong = true;
        }
    }

    else
    {
        std::cout << "Password is invalid.";
    }
    //---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    if (veryweak)
    {
        std::cout << "Your password is very weak.";
    }

    else if (weak)
    {
        std::cout << "Your password is weak.";
    }

    else if(strong)
    {
        std::cout << "Your password is strong.";
    }

    else if (verystrong)
    {
        std::cout << "Your password is very strong.";
    }

    return 0;
}

A: Why don't you use some counter like weakness_counter or something. For each property that is fulfilled, the counter is incremented by one. And at the end you check how much properties are fulfilled and rate the password strength after this.
Further I would recommend you to write an own function for each of your properties, like:
bool containsNumbers(string pw);
bool containsLetters(string pw);

And so on. In this case it's more easy to read, change and extend the code by new properties etc..
I hope I could help you.
Regards :)

A: I would introduce the booleans:

*

*isShortPassword

*containsNumbers

*containsAlphabet

*containsSpecialCharacters

than you can write
std::string passwortStrengt () {
    if (isShortPassword && !containsAlphabet && !containsSpecialCharacters) {
        return "weak";
    //forumlate all cases as you did in prosa up above
    } else if (...) {
    } else if (...) {
    }
    return "weak"; // just in case you missed a case above
}

NHL Three Stars: Isles escape with win; Flames shut out Leafs
No. 1 Star: Chad Johnson, Calgary Flames
It's difficult to not assume Johnson is 'the guy' in net in Calgary when he continues to post outstanding numbers. Johnson picked up his third shutout of the month in the team's 3-0 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs. He made 39 saves for his eighth win of the year.
No. 2 Star: Anders Lee, New York Islanders
After the Islanders blew a 3-0 lead to the Pittsburgh Penguins, it looked like the game was headed to overtime and more of Jack Capuano's hair would fall out. Lee saved all that by tipping in what would be the game winning goal with 26.6-seconds left in the third.
No. 3 Star: Logan Couture, San Jose Sharks
The Sharks forward led the team in scoring with two goals and an assist against the Los Angeles Kings. His first goal came with 55 seconds remaining in the first period to give the Sharks the 2-0 lead. Ryan Carpenter scored his first NHL goal 20 seconds later to put San Jose up by three.
Honorable Mention: Calgary went up 2-0 on Toronto within 49 seconds of puck drop with goals by Freddie Hamilton and Kris Versteeg. Matt Stajan scored with 4:11 left in the first for the 3-0 lead … The Isles tied the NHL record for quickest time between two goals with Lee's goal and the empty netter that followed three seconds later. The Pittsburgh Penguins scored three goals in the third period to come back from an 0-3 deficit. Matt Murray submitted his nomination for 'save of the year.' … Dustin Brown scored the lone goal for the Kings, but he had to wait a couple minutes for it to be official. With 26 saves, Martin Jones earned win No. 11 of the season.
Did You Know? Sidney Crosby had two assists against the Islanders bringing his career total points against the team to 100.
Dishonorable Mention: The Leafs are now 0-4-1 in the second game of back-to-backs. Jhonas Enroth has made a majority of those starts and has yet to record a win this season … San Jose was an abysmal 37-percent on the faceoff dot. The Kings snapped their five game win streak in the 4-1 loss to the Sharks … Bryan Rust, Evgeni Malkin and Trevor Daley were all minus-3 (for what it's worth).
