Dianna, 57 "An Anxious Husband"
ContributorDianna, 57Read Full Bio
Diana, 57, has four children, one grandchild and has been married to her husband, Bernie for 29 years. Ever since Diana has known Bernie, he has had issues with his knee due to a football injury in college. Diana wanted Bernie to have a knee replacement years ago but he was wary. He only decided to have it done after speaking with a friend who had had the operation. Diana opens up about the anxiety that her husband was having leading up to surgery and talks about how he was ready to back out up until the last minute. She regrets that she didn't know how much anxiety Bernie was feeling at the time.
DIANA: I'm Diana. I'm 57 and I-I have four children. One grandchild, Francis [PH] who's four, a husband, Bernard [PH].
DIANA: We've been married 29 years.
DIANA: He has always had a bad knee since I met him. It was a football injury when he was in college. And he had surgery then. And 20 years later we moved into our house and he slipped down our stairs and had surgery on the same knee again. So since I've met him he's always had a little bit of a limp. Has always had knee pain. And it's progressively gotten worse and probably 10 years ago I really started bugging him about having a knee replacement. Because it was limiting him in our activities. And he went to the doctor which we share the same doctor and he said, "Oh no, you're too young. You're way too young. You need to wait another 10 years."
DIANA: He was in a lot of pain. I don't think he ever would admit that he was in pain. He would just say, "My knee's bad." He couldn't sit in the theater. He was pretty much almost dragging that leg around so it was almost dead weight. He had gone to the doctors, they had given him a couple of cortisone shots which helped for a couple of days and then it was back. You could tell he was in a lot of pain. And it's been almost 10 years and he finally went to the doctor, scheduled a knee replacement for May. And then our daughter was getting married in April and I just didn't think he was gonna be able to make it till then and he coincidentally had lunch with a friend who just had had it done. Saw a new doctor and got him in in January.
DIANA: I don't think he still was on board with that, you know, even after he made the appointment he was up until the last minute ready to back out 'cause he's just didn't wanna have this done. And I was just so excited that he was gonna have it done and have it done before the wedding.
I didn't really know the anxiety he was suffering before. So that was one thing that I thought, "Wow, I should have been paying more attention to that." Because it really was a big deal for him.
DIANA: He lost probably 10 to 12 pounds before the surgery. And I knew he-I knew he was like a little bit nervous about it but I had no idea. Knowing what I know now, I would have gotten him a prescription of something to calm him down because it makes me sad that he was so anxious and I didn't get it. I was just so excited that he was gonna have this surgery finally. I mean I've been bugging him for years to have it so I feel bad that I wasn't like paying attention to what he was really going through.
DIANA: He went into surgery and we were in there and his blood pressure was just going off the charts. And they kept saying, "Are you sure you don't take blood pressure medication? Are you sure you don't have high blood pressure?" And-and he doesn't. He was just so nervous. He had a fever and so they were thinking well maybe we shouldn't do the surgery 'cause now his blood pressure's high and he's got this temperature. He was a wreck and I think even afterwards he said, "Even up to that point I was ready to say I don't wanna do this."
DIANA: He probably shouldn't have read so much information, you know. I mean he'd just go-he went in there thinking they're just gonna cut off my leg. And that just scared the crap out of him. Sorry I didn't mean to say crap. [LAUGH]
DIANA: The night before the surgery I was bringing him dinner because it was hard for him to walk. And he finished his dinner. He just jumped up and gave me this big smack ki-this big fat kiss. Like it was like he wasn't gonna see me again.
DIANA: This guy does knee surgeries all day long, all week long, all year long. What are you worried about? I mean it's gonna be fine. So I feel a little guilty that I wasn't more in tune with his feelings. And he wasn't sharing it. I mean I knew he was drinking a little bit more. And eating a little bit less. And not talking and very quiet.
DIANA: When he came out of surgery he looked great. And he felt great. And they brought him up to his room and within four hours he was walking on his leg. And the one thing I remember is that they kept saying you gotta keep that pain in check. So you don't ever want it to go to where you're trying to catch up to me. So the pain medication was just huge. And it's funny because he didn't have any pain. They kept saying, "What's your pain level?" And he'd say it's three but I really don't think there was any pain 'cause there was so much pain medication.
DIANA: The next morning and I guess the doctor had come and said, "You're good to go." And he was just not emotionally ready to go home. I think physically he could have gone home because he was up and walking with the walker. Emotionally I don't think I was ready for him to come home. I was happy that he was gonna spend another night there 'cause, um, I was nervous. 'Cause it's a huge scar and it's a huge surgery. And it kinda scared us both.
DIANA: We have a two story house. The master bedroom's on the first story. And there-so there's a couple of stairs going into the house. And a couple of stairs around the house. But he really didn't have to do a flight of stairs. He had done a couple of flights of stairs at the hospital.
DIANA: He asked me, "Do you think we should get some in care for the home?" And I said, "Nobody's gonna take care of you better than me." And jokingly, I was kind of joking.
DIANA: We knew that we were gonna have a nurse there a couple times that first week doing the blood pressure and the fever and checking the wound to make sure it wasn't getting infected. Which is what they're really concerned about. And we knew that we were gonna have a physical therapist there a couple of times a week until he had his follow up appointment. And that was actually five weeks down the road.
DIANA: He had had a blood clot the surgery 25 years ago and ended up back in the hospital. So they were very concerned about that. And so I think I was concerned about that.
DIANA: He wore the socks for three weeks and I have to say the hardest part of my job was getting those socks on because I don't think he could physically do it by himself even today. And it was a big deal for me that he had clean socks every day. In the hospital they put one pair on and you go home in that pair. They don't care how many days you wear them. But I wanted clean socks every day for him. So that was the biggest challenge of our day I think was getting those socks on him. [LAUGH I was like sweating half the time because I didn't want to hurt him. And it was just hard getting them on.
DIANA: I think he was feeling a lot better than I thought he was. Because they stressed it in the hospital that you really had to stay ahead of the pain. So my phone was set every four hours, the alarm would go off. I didn't even ask if he needed it or not.
DIANA: They said he'd be on the pain medication for like eight to 12 weeks and he was completely off of it after three weeks.
DIANA: He came home on Friday and the following Wednesday I took him to his sister's house for a business family meeting. I was a wreck because I had to drive away and he had his walker and nobody else there knew how to take care of him. [LAUGH] Only me. That was important for him to get out. When I picked him up I could tell just the way he was walking out that he was tired and he came home and I did his exercises with him in the morning and the afternoon. And I made sure we did two walks a day. And I made sure when he wasn't up he had ice and I was consistently filling up the ice bucket.
DIANA: They showed me in the hospital how to work the leg and move it and, you know, what exercises he was supposed to be doing and how many repetitions. And he could have done that all by himself but just having me there made it more accountable, you know. And I don't know. He was eager to-to do it with me I think for some reason, you know.
DIANA: Every day I saw an improvement. They said we're gonna have good days and bad days. We had not very many bad days. Probably one or two. Which was exciting for him. I think we would walk a little bit further and then we're at the fire station and then we did a mile. And having the guidelines too. I mean we had the whole binder that said, you know, you should be here at this point and at this stage. It was good for him to know that he was on track and that there was no infection and was healing nicely. The swelling was going down. He was excited every day to get going and do what he was supposed to do.
DIANA: He still doesn't tackle the stairs very often. I mean he could be going up and down the stairs a couple times a day. And I think that makes him nervous.
DIANA: I think having a dog running around the house is frightening. I mean that just freaks us both out because once that dog goes running through the house we're both kind of like oh watch out.
DIANA: But the hardest part I think for him was just getting in the shower by himself. When I think like people go home and do this by themselves I think for us, it was just a comfort level for him and for myself knowing that if something happened, if he fell or tripped or something I was there. Because I wouldn't go to the store unless I knew he was going to be icing for the next hour or... 'cause I was just so worried that if he did fall or he was alone that would, I think that scared us both is that was the only thing we were really worried about.
DIANA: I have never slept so soundly as I did that first week being home. Because I think I was just so emotionally and physically exhausted. I don't sleep for anything. And that first week I'd get into bed and I would just I'd be out. I'd be out like a light.
DIANA: He ended up with pneumonia which I feel responsible for that because they do that little thing where you blow the ball in the hospital. And they sent it home with us but nobody ever said you need to keep doing that. And so three weeks after he had been home he got really sick and ended up back at the doctor's. So I feel a little guilty for that. It might be part of my problem because I should have been thinking oh he should be blowing in that thing every day. [LAUGH] But he wasn't.
DIANA: Well when I picked him up I could tell just the way he was walking out that he was tired. And he came home and he immediately wanted ice. And so any kind of activity outside of the house he comes home and he definitely wants to ice it. Yesterday he had his first physical therapy outside of our home. He's driving himself right now but he came home and he immediately wanted to ice his leg.
DIANA: You know, getting up and walking to the fire station. I mean you do that walk twice a day for three weeks. You know, you don't wanna do it anymore. You-you kinda get over it and tired of it. And so then we'd get in the car and we'd go to the mall. It took me a while to figure out that he was getting bored with what we were doing. And so we tried to switch it around a little bit.
DIANA: He likes to stay active and not only active but needed. Like he wanted to take the trash out for me and things that I was more than happy to keep doing. He wanted to feed the dog and he wanted to take the dog on the walk. And it was just, you know, you d-not a good idea. [LAUGH]
DIANA: I think he's happy where he is in his rehabilitation. I think he thought that he'd be a little bit further than he is now. I think he's doing great. And technically it's a full year before you're completely recovered. And it's not even been two months. So he's getting a little impatient and I asked him this morning, "How does your knee feel?" And he said, "Like a five pound brick is in there. He's not quite used to the weight of it and he hasn't quite built up the muscle tone yet.
DIANA: Last week is probably the first week where he hasn't just been up and excited and he's got this new knee. So I think it's really settling in like okay, this is gonna take a little while. I'm not gonna be running the Rose Bowl in a week or so.
DIANA: I try to keep his attitude positive. And he's pretty positive anyway. And I try to stay positive. I feel like I did my job for those five weeks. And like you are capable now of doing some of this stuff on your own. And I know that he doesn't need me to take a walk with him now. 'Cause he can walk by himself. He doesn't have a cane. He doesn't have a walker.
DIANA: Like for instance, yesterday he, earlier in the morning, he made a reference that he wanted me to come to his physical therapy with him. I really didn't know where that was coming from except that I think he just wanted that security of me because I've been literally by his side every day since then.
DIANA: Our goal was this wedding. A-and like I said, it was scheduled for May. And I was just petrified that if he had to wait until May for the surgery he wasn't going to be walking her down the aisle. 'Cause he was literally dragging that leg. He, today, could walk her down that aisle, do that first dance. He babysat the grandson last Saturday while we had a wedding shower. And he can't do that yet. He can't run after him if he's in a parking lot. So I think he just would like to get a little more mobile. He'd like to actually be comfortable in just resuming hikes with us and taking the dog on a hike.
DIANA: We were supposed to go up to Montana next week and he said, "I-I don't think I could get in a boat and fly-fish."
DIANA: His leg is very sturdy. He's not confident of it. Which is why I-I really wanted it 10 years ago. [LAUGH] Because it changed our life.
DIANA: He was a marathon runner and so we did a couple of marathons together and we were always really active people. We skied and we rode horses and we did all that stuff. And right about when he turned 55 it just really slowed him down. And I would, not take one for the team, but even in Montana when they did, you know, they went caving I stayed home with Bernie because I didn't want him home alone. And so it definitely affected our social life and our activity level. He's excited just to get that back and do those things again and be part of the group instead of the one that has to hold down the fort.


Located at an unusual location close by Manessehof and not to be confused by Restaurant Manesse, this restaurant is "The Art of Food". On the way, Zuri Girl passed by a restaurant called Restaurant Manesse which specializes in Turkish food but 5 minutes later the Kafkaesque journey ends and Maison Manesse's stylish wooden entrance door, complete with a video screen is finally spotted! Fabian Spiguel and Migul Ledesma who helms the kitchen, opened the restaurant roughly 7 months ago and have renovated the location very tastefully.
The interior is kept in white black and the painted white wooden beam creates an intimate, rustic and pleasingly casual ambiance. The tiny restaurant can host roughly 20 people. The lively crowd is basically a mix of everything; hipsters, bankers and foodies fill up the small dining room. This not your typical upscale fine dining restaurant and unlike other restaurants in the same segment, the service at Maison Manesse is very amiable and relaxed.
This is Zurich's tiniest menu – and we mean literally. The menu comes in the size of playing cards and features a manageable and innovative choice of 10 dishes and 3 desserts. You can choose amongst a 3 and a 4 course menu or opt for your individual choice of dishes.
Despite the small-plate premise, many of the dishes actually do pretty well in the price to portion ratio, so it's all too easy to over-order. To start, there is goat cheese with a delicious fruity jam, oysters with avocado and burrata with sashimi of citrus fruit. The "Onsen" egg (an egg boiled at 63 degrees for an hour) on dark bread and with additional flavours fused together produce a delicious result . The combination of potatoes with mushrooms and perigord truffle with its different textures is interesting.
To finish off, Girlfriend Guide can't resist the almond honey cake which sounds dainty, tastes heavenly and brings our indulgences to a very sweet end. Every dish is artfully presented and shows the chef's passion for food.
Maison Manesse offers very innovative, upscale cuisine in a refreshingly relaxed and trendy ambiance.
At the end of a great dinner, try out one of the restaurant's fantastic Gins complete with different flavors and fresh fruit.

LONDON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) – Placing virtual solar panels on the roofs of buildings by tapping on a mobile phone may not be how city planners approach their jobs but the creators of a new game-like virtual reality app believe it could help design better cities.
Paris-based tech company Toolz says their Smart Favela application can be a "game changer" for both city planners and residents, turning often chaotic and underdeveloped urban areas into cities of the future.
The award-winning application allows city planners to visualise the development of neighbourhoods, including services such as water, energy or transport, using a 3D model of an area to create a virtual avatar of a city.
Residents can review the project using their mobile phones or computers and leave feedback about the proposed investment. They can also suggest what other services they need.
"The objective is to involve citizens in the decision-making process, stop top-down urbanisation," said David Laure, Toolz founder and chief executive.
"What we do first is a lot of communication about potential solutions so that people are aware what can be done, how it works and how much it costs," he said by telephone from France.
With 90% of this growth predicted to unfold in Asian and African cities, the United Nations warns that managing cities and population growth has become one of the most important challenges of the 21st century.
Smart Favela can be particularly useful in planning investments in informal settlements that often grow haphazardly as more people move in, and lack basic services like water or sanitation, said Vincent de Boursetty, advisor at Toolz.
"It helps city planners make sure an investment is going to be useful and that all the solutions have been explained to the people that are most concerned by it," de Boursetty told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
When shiny cable cars sprouted in one of Rio's favelas a few years ago, its residents were not too impressed, complaining that while the gondolas were popular with tourists, they would much rather see investments in sewage and schools.
De Boursetty said those who decide about investments in cities would prefer to pay for projects the residents really need, rather than risking disappointment and complaints.
"What I found out discussing with a number of representatives from local authorities is that they are genuinely interested in gathering proper feedback from their citizens," he said.

How often you interact with a person, topics you're interested in, how many likes or comments the post attracts, and – apparently – psychological experiments. Read More , does anyone carry on using it?
We asked, you answered, and the results have been pulled together to form some fascinating conclusions outlined below.
We asked you, Why Are You Still Using Facebook? The response was overwhelming, with well over 100 people chiming in with their reasons for continuing to use Facebook. There were many reasons given, but one was mentioned more often than the rest.
The main reason people still use Facebook is because everyone else uses it. This shouldn't come as a great surprise to anyone, as it's a fact that with 1.3 billion users, Facebook is where all your friends are likely to be.
However, it may be of some concern to Facebook that the biggest hold it has on its users is the size of its userbase. What happens if a better alternative Is There Anything Left For Facebook Alternatives? [Opinion] Is There Anything Left For Facebook Alternatives? [Opinion] Being #1 is tough.

Read More comes along and people decamp en masse? This explains why Facebook has been so quick to acquire potential rivals such as Instagram and Whatsapp.
Because Facebook works as an RSS reader for news.
Because it's required to log in to other websites.
Because you can use it to build a professional profile.
Because you can use it to share photos easily.
Because Facebook offers free video messaging.
Because it's an easy way of organizing events.
Because Facebook groups are better than bulletin boards.
Because it's the easiest method for remembering birthdays.
Because it offers a simple way of spreading awful opinions.
Because it's better than Google+.
So, what have we learned? That people are still using Facebook despite the stunts the company continues to pull. Why? Because nothing else works quite as well as Facebook does, and what alternatives there are only have a fraction of the users Facebook boasts. Ergo, Facebook wins.
Facebook wins, but only for the time being. A new rival could emerge in time, and refuse to be acquired by Facebook. If enough people start using the new rival instead of Facebook then a tipping point will eventually occur. At that (currently) fictional moment in time, Facebook becomes the new MySpace. And that's a fate we wouldn't wish on anyone.
I continue to use Facebook for a couple of reasons, the main one being that I am home bound and Facebook allows me a place to interact with friends and family in a single arena. It allows me to interact and "participate" in their lives even though i am physically unable to be with them, wherever they may be.
Also, because I am a shut-in, I play a lot of "social" games, games that depend on friends and "neighbors" to complete goals. Facebook, is the only place that offers some of these games (Farmville, for example) and, having met and becoming friends with some of my co-gamers nearly five years ago, they have become very important to me. Our friendships have developed far beyond the constraints of the gaming world and they have become very real friends – friends that, often times, will notice my absence way before family or so called "real life" friends.
Until there is another, more secure and widely accepted way to keep up this same sort of interaction with those people that make a difference in my life, I will remain on Facebook, guard myself and my life as diligently as possible.
We chose this comment purely because it's a reminder that Facebook isn't all bad. While we asked this question from a negative perspective, this commenter informed us how Facebook has actually improved her life for the better. Which is rather nice to hear.

Like facebook, there is an another site Thapal.com is very useful for all type of users. One of my corporate site was running in thapal.com. It's very awesome and very easy to handle.
try it i am guarantee..
How do you know Facebook is dumb?
To be able comment here!
If you not on Facebook NSA will mark you as suspicious or terrorist and ban from Flying, these days Facebook is used as background check by everybody, even stores is asking for your account if you want something for with you intend to pay letter.
Every one here should admit a fact that we don't use facebook because of it's many handy features but we use facebook only because "OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMEBERS ARE THERE"
let's suppose a scenario, somehow your friends and family members left the facebook.com and start using xyz.com social network and that social network is lack of features like no real time chatting system, no groups, no social games "JUST A SIMPLE SOCIAL NETWORK". where your friends and family members are..!
Then I'll ask from you a simple question that "DO YOU STILL WANT TO USE FACEBOOK.COM"?
Hope i clear ma poin.
Sarim Khan , that's a good point too.
Yep, that's basically why I use Facebook: all my old school/college/uni mates are on there. I don't like it otherwise; much prefer Twitter.
Facebook has very good system analytics.
Just quit Facebook two weeks ago. I'm a 22 years old student and I do firmly believe that it is possible to live without it. I actually have a better social life now than before, quite it requires more efforts.

Q: Can Protractor wait for a localStorage change (caused by REST call)? I am using Protractor to test whether a value gets set in localStorage after a login submit. If I bind the localStorage value to a DOM-element, Protractor automatically waits for the REST response (after the login submit), checks the value and tests it.
But I would like test the value of localStorage without writing it to the DOM. Before each test I clear the localStorage.
browser.executeScript("window.localStorage.clear();");

I can get the value in the test.
var key = browser.executeScript("return window.localStorage.getItem('ngStorage-initKey');")

But that happens too early.
I also tried returning that value in a browser.wait() statement, but in that case, it seems like the return value is not usable by wait(). probably because it's not a promise.
I would even consider giving protractor access to the the $localStorage instance from ngStorage if that would solve this.
Can anyone tell me if watching localStorage values async with Protractor is possible, and if so, how to approach this?

A: What turned out to be the solution, was how to handle the promise which browser.executeScript returns.
And it's good news: Protractor is already async, so custom waiting is not necessary. However, you should not just check if the returned value is of type string or isEqual to an expected string. But matching it via regular expressions works fine, whether you get a string or a promise returned. For example, if I expect a hash of 40 characters, you can match it like this:
it('should store key in localStorage when logging in', function() {
    loginFormSubmitButton.click();
    var newUserKey = browser.executeScript("return window.localStorage.getItem('ngStorage-userKey');");
    expect(newUserKey).toMatch(/^\"[a-f0-9]{40}\"$/i);
});

Feels like magic, but the expect statement actually waits for the promise to resolve. In this case that means a call to the server is made or mocked, the result is written into localStorage and detected as-it-happens by the expect statement.
No need for custom timeouts.

A: You probably aren't waiting correctly in your browser.wait() function, the value doesnt have to be a promise, just a simple boolean value, that exits the wait once it's true, the following will work:
browser.wait(function () {
    return browser.executeScript("return window.localStorage.getItem('ngStorage-initKey');")
    == theValueYouExpect;
}, 5000);

read more about protractors wait !
Alternatively, browser.executeScript("window.localStorage.clear();"); returns a promise AFTER the script was executed, (but not neccessarily the script finished, if it is async), so here another solution will be:
browser.executeScript("window.localStorage.clear();")
    .then(function (){
    browser.executeScript("return window.localStorage.getItem('ngStorage-initKey');")
        .then(function (key) {//do something with the key});
});

Bono's star-studded birthday bash
By Bang Showbiz in Lifestyle / Showbiz on 16 May 2014
Follow Bono
Bono U2 Pharrell Williams Jared Leto Guy Oseary Herbie Hancock David Blaine ASAP Rocky Charlize Theron Sean Penn
U2 frontman Bono celebrated his 54th birthday with a huge party featuring live performances from Herbie Hancock and Pharrell Williams, as well as magic tricks from David Blaine.
Bono celebrated his 54th birthday with a star-studded party on May 10.
The U2 frontman invited everyone from Pharrell Williams to Jared Leto to help him mark the special day with a giant houseparty at the band's manager Guy Oseary's house in Los Angeles.
A guest informed Us Weekly: ''There were a lot of surprise performances - Herbie Hancock came to surprise him, he got up on stage to sing ... and then Williams joined him to sing 'Happy'.''
Pharrell told Bono on stage: ''You've changed the world with everything you do. You give people hope, especially with your song 'Sunday, Bloody Sunday.' ''
Bono replied: ''Well, if we just keep singing 'Happy,' we won't need songs like 'Sunday, Bloody Sunday!'''
Party-goers were treated to a special underwater performance from illusionist David Blaine, who attempted to hold his breath in a glass tank for over 10 minutes.
While he failed to complete the impossible feat, he apparently did manage to smoke an e-cigarette and eat a banana underwater.
The bash also marked father-of-four Bono's daughter Jordan's 25th birthday so he arranged a special performance from her favourite rapper ASAP Rocky, who serenaded her with 'Happy Birthday'.
Meanwhile, Bono was surprised by his friends Charlize Theron and Sean Penn, who sent him an unusual gift since they couldn't attend the event in person.
The Irish singer was stunned to see a shaving cream performer arrive at the party, who amazed him by transforming his body into different characters using just shaving cream.

Q: Exercise 4.3 - Chapter 2 - Algebraic Topology by William S. Massey I didn't understand why is requisited in the below question. I'm not very good with English, then I believe my doubt is is due to lack of understanding of the statement. Can anyone write in mathematics terms what is requisited in the below question? Thanks in advance!

$\textbf{4.3}$ Prove that, if $A$ is a retract of $X$, $r: X \longrightarrow A$ ia a retraction, $i: A \longrightarrow X$ is the inclusion and $i_* \pi_1(A)$ is a normal subgroup of $\pi_1(X)$, then $\pi_1(X)$ is the direct product of the subgroups image $i_*$ and kernel $r_*$.
$\textbf{EDIT:}$
I tried to solve the problem now I know what I need to prove, but I'm stuck can anyone give me a hint? Thanks in advance!
My attempt:
First, observe that $r \circ i$ is the identity map of $A$ which forces that $r_*$ is epimorphism and $i_*$ is monomorphism. Since $i_*$ is a monomorphism, $ker \ i_* = \{ e \}$ and by Isomorphism Theorem of Groups, we have $\pi_1(A)/ \{ e \} = \pi_1(A)/ker \ i_* \cong i_* \left( \pi_1(A) \right)$ and, because there is a natural isomorphism between $\pi_1(A)$ and $\pi_1(A)/ \{ e \}$, we have
$$\pi_1(A) \cong \pi_1(A)/ \{ e \} = \pi_1(A)/ker \ i_* \cong i_* \left( \pi_1(A) \right) \hspace{5cm} (1)$$
Now, we have, by the fact $r_*$ is an epimorphism and by the Isomorphism Theorem of Groups, that
$$\pi_1(X)/ ker \ k_* \cong \pi_1(A) \hspace{10cm} (2)$$
$(1)$ and $(2)$ allow us state that

$$\pi_1(X)/ ker \ k_* \cong i_* \left( \pi_1(A) \right) \hspace{9cm} (3)$$

As $\pi_1(X) = \bigcup_{f \in \pi_1(X)} f \ ker \ k_*$ and by $(3)$, every $g \in \pi_1(X)$ can be written like $g = f \cdot n$ and $g = h$, where $f \in \pi_1(X)$, $n \in \ ker \ k_*$, $\cdot$ represent the operation of link paths and $h \in i_* \left( \pi_1(A) \right)$, then
$$h = g = f \cdot n \Longrightarrow h = f \cdot n \Longrightarrow f = h \cdot n^{-1}$$
Since $f = h \cdot n^{-1}$ and $f \in \pi_1(X)$, we can construct an isomorphism $j: Dom (j) \subset \pi_1(X) \longrightarrow i_* \left( \pi_1(A) \right) \times ker \ k_*$ such that $h \cdot n^{-1} \mapsto (h, n^{-1})$. Remains to show that $Dom (j) = \pi_1(X)$


Four people have been rescued from the collapsed building in Oke Arin, Lagos Island, Lagos.
The building located at No 57, Egerton Square, Oke Arin, reportedly collapsed some few hours ago and rescue operations have begun immediately on the site.
According to report, the build collapsed during the demolition of another building by officials of the Lagos State Building Control Agency.
That's, they rescued only four people. Well they have tried, they those victim survive their injuries .

Fangoria posts Nightmare remake update from producers: "We've got the script."
Posted on:	February/8/2009 9:42 PM
Yesterday, Fangoria posted the following interview with Nightmare remake producers Brad Fuller and Andrew Form. Fuller confirms the script is in hand, with an expectation to begin shooting in 12 weeks:
Producers' update on NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET remake
Written by A.C. Ferrante
With the FRIDAY THE 13TH remake heading into theaters on Friday, February 13, courtesy of Platinum Dunes and New Line/Paramount, producers Brad Fuller and Andrew Form revealed to Fango that their long-gestating A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET reboot is just a couple of months away from filming.
"We've got the script, and in 12 weeks our goal is to be shooting in Chicago," Fuller tells us.
Whereas FRIDAY THE 13th is a distillation of the first four original movies into one, the producers note that their NIGHTMARE will take the franchise back to its roots. "It's kind of what we did with TEXAS CHAINSAW, bringing it back to the first one," says Fuller. "It will definitely focus on the original film, unlike the new FRIDAY THE 13TH, which [pulls] from a bunch of the movies."
While the producers admit they're "close on directors," the ultimate helmer has to be someone who can provide the kind of strong imagery that distinguished Wes Craven's 1984 trendsetter. "We're looking for a really visual filmmaker who can make those dreams crazy," says Fuller. "Someone really visual." And while there have been plenty of rumors on the web for months regarding who will play Freddy Krueger, one actor who is definitely not on the list, despite previous reports, is Billy Bob Thornton. "That was never brought up with us," Form states. Fuller adds that Robert Englund has already expressed interest in not reprising the role: "He doesn't want to do it."
The dilemma right now is whether to cast a name or an unknown as the iconic villain, and the producers are leaning toward the latter. "There are amazing actors out there who we would love to have in the role," Fuller says. "I don't think you want someone in the part where people can't see Freddy. You have to have somebody who is so good that they can become Freddy, or someone nobody's heard of who can really pull off that character."
But what if Englund were to come back and say he wants to do it after all? Would they entertain the idea? "It's a discussion we've had,' Fuller reveals. "We'd have to talk further about it."

Q: Resolving a type without registering first - prism 4 and Untiy First of all I would like to remark I am new with the concept of prism, DI and containers. I am looking on one of the code samples provided with the Prism Library:
The code simply injects a view with the "Hello World" string (in a TextBlock element) to a region in the shell.
When the application starts-up, it creates a new BootStrapper instance, which creates and initializes the shell:
public class Bootstrapper : UnityBootstrapper
{
    protected override DependencyObject CreateShell()
    {
        return Container.Resolve<Shell>();
    }

    protected override void InitializeShell()
    {
        base.InitializeShell();

        Application.Current.RootVisual = (UIElement)this.Shell;
    }

    protected override void ConfigureModuleCatalog()
    {
        base.ConfigureModuleCatalog();

        ModuleCatalog moduleCatalog = (ModuleCatalog)this.ModuleCatalog;
        moduleCatalog.AddModule(typeof(HelloWorldModule.HelloWorldModule));
    }
}

My question refers to the method CreateShell(). I couldnt find nowhere in the supplied code (including not in a configuration file or any xaml file...) where do they register the type Shell, and even if it was registered - the supplies Shell class doesnt implement any interface... what is the meaning of resolving a specific type?
the Shell implementation:
public partial class Shell : UserControl
{
    public Shell()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

    }
}

This looks like a magic to me, so I tried to create my own type (MyType) and resolve it the same way:
Container.Resolve<MyType>();

By setting a breakepoint inside MyType constructor, I saw that it DID resolved MyType. Can somebody please explain to me how does it work?

A: These couple of threads should answer your question:

*

*http://compositewpf.codeplex.com/Thread/View.aspx?ThreadId=230051

*Does unity just make clasess with out needing anything registered?
Additionally, if you are eager to get more detail into how Unity can do this, simple download Unity 2.0 and open the source code that is provided with the installer.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Damian

A: You do not need to register a type you want to resolve. You need to register the dependencies of a type, that you want to resolve. In this case, the Shell doesn't need any dependencies, so you can resolve it simply. But for an example (not really), if your shell getting an interface IService as a parameter, then you must register IService, before you resolve Shell.
Otherwise you will get Dependency Resolution Failed Exception. In Prism 4.1 it will be swallowed silently due to TryResolve.


The Securities and Exchange Commission has awarded the small business portion of a potential 10-year, $2.5 billion contract for enterprise IT services across the agency.
Fifteen small firms announced in a Friday award notice will join the previously-chosen three large business winners for the SEC's "One OIT" contract that covers any and all components of IT services as the agency's technology requirements evolve.
One OIT is a consolidation of several current contracts into a single, integrated vehicle. Accenture Federal Services, Attain and Booz Allen Hamilton won the large business slots in May.
All is not lost for those who have not been selected for this vehicle however. The SEC plans to carry out an on-ramping process "soon after this initial round of awards," according to the award notice. That will also include an off-ramp component as well.
The contract's scope of work covers technology areas such as big data, cloud computing, data center consolidation, digital services, mobility, IT help desk, IT operations and maintenance, open source, telecommunications, virtualization and web analytics.


I'm not interested in upholding lofty spiritual ideas, or regurgitating spiritual truths, or following spiritual traditions. I'm interested in the bare bones of direct experience.
I'm not interested in doing spiritual things, or looking like a spiritual person, or pretending to be higher or better than those who are not being spiritual. I'm interested in being audaciously true to my soul's expression.
I'm not interested in living in nirvana, or resting on a cloud of endless peace, or being cushioned from the world by a blanket of bliss. I'm interested in the grit of being human and the tenderness of a heart broken open.
I'm not interested in giddy elevation, or blind devotion, or the glamor of power. I'm interested in meeting you eye to eye, right here in the glaring spotlight of naked honesty.
I'm not interested in being a spiritual teacher, even though the trajectory of my life has landed me in this role. I'm interested in being an artist of life. A true artist does not conform to an external authority, does not twist themselves into how family and friends and society wants them to be, does not sacrifice their truth for safety and comfort.
A true artist dances to an inner rhythm deep in the belly, and listens to the raging song of beauty in an untamable heart, and tastes the blood, sweat and tears of brokenness – over and over again – in order to offer one drop of nectar to the soul of the world.

22 Reasons Minnesotans Are Having A Better Summer Than You
By Chrissy Stockton, June 20th 2013
http://tcat.tc/ZOzeLR
1. Outdoor Culture
This is what heaven looks like, BTW
Minnesotans love to be outside and there's no shortage of things to do. With over 11,000 lakes Minnesota has more shoreline than California, Hawaii and Florida combined. That's a lot of boating, fishing and lying on the beach.
2. Minnesota State Fair
Because every girl's dream is to have her face carved into butter one day, Amy West
Close your eyes and imagine the most delicious food you can think of. Fry it and put it on a stick and you can buy it at the state fair. Chocolate bars, Caprese salad, ostrich, and beer are all served a la stick. There's also bacon ice cream. One of the biggest state fairs in the nation, you can do everything here from watching animals get born in the "birthing barn," see big name concerts, or view a butter statue of this year's Princess Kay of the Milky Way.
Pride parade, Wendy
Minnesota has one of the largest pride celebrations in the world. Having legalized gay marriage earlier this year, June's celebration is going to be even crazier. Local companies like Target and General Mills show up to support our GLBTQ community. The highlight of the festival is Sunday's Pride Parade down Hennepin Avenue which features floats upon floats of shirtless men dancing to club music. Also, politicians and dogs dressed like drag queens. This year's grand marshal is former Vikings punter and outspoken tweeter Chris Kluwe.
4. Lake Calhoun
Sunset on Calhoun, Wendy
In the middle of Minneapolis is a beautiful lake with a running and biking path around all 3.2 miles of it. It has three swimming beaches, two playgrounds, volleyball courts, grills, a restaurant, fishing docks and a place you can rent paddleboards, kayaks and canoes from. Calhoun is the platonic form of summer bliss.
5. Rooftop bars
From one rooftop bar to another
Minnesotans love to be outside so much, they're even outside while eating dinner or enjoying nightlife. Every bar and restaurant seems to have both a patio and a rooftop for outdoor seating and drinking.
6. Biking
There are 145 Nice Ride kiosks in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Sarah Kolb-Williams
Bicycling Magazine named Minneapolis the best biking city in the nation. You don't even have to live in Minneapolis—or own a bike; the city's Nice Ride system makes renting one for a spin around Lake Calhoun super easy. There's also a bicycle highway, the Greenway, and tons of bike shop/café hybrids. In a state where there's ice and snow on the ground most of the year, our love for biking runs deep.
7. City Parks
Yes, most of the parks have lakes in them, Eliot
With only six blocks separating the majority of people's homes from a city park, Minneapolis has the best parks ever and was even given that distinction by the Trust for Public Land. It's not a coincidence that Minneapolis was also named the fittest city in the U.S. by Shape Magazine. Exercise gives you endorphins and endorphins make you happy. Happy people have the best summer ever.
8. Cabins
The bigger the bonfire, the bigger the fun
There is a magical land you will hear Minnesotans refer to called "up north." There is no physical place that "up north" is or city that phrase relates to. Up north is wherever your cabin is. Weekends at the lake home (or your friend's lake home) are the best weekends of the summer.
9. Boundary waters
The land before time, Chad Fennell
The Boundary Waters Canoe Area is a network of over a thousand lakes and is a frequent destination for backpackers, fishers and hikers.
10. Music festivals
View from the Basilica Block Party, Carl Lacey
Minnesota has a long history of producing unique and legendary musicians: Bob Dylan, Prince and The Replacements to name a few. Summer in Minnesota has no shortage of music festivals. There's Rock the Garden, an indie festival held at the legendary Minneapolis Walker Art Center Sculpture Garden, The Basilica Block Party which is held outside the nation's first Basilica in downtown Minneapolis, and hugely popular country music festival, We Fest, in Detroit Lakes.
11. Big Island
Heading to the island, Brian
Lake Minnetonka is a large lake in the western Twin Cities metro suburbs. In the middle of the lake is Big Island, a popular place to dock your boat, tan and enjoy daytime cocktails with strangers.
12. Zorbaz
Zorbaz iz where itz at, Wendy
Zorbaz is a magical Minnesota restaurant chain that you can drive your boat up to for pizza, beer and sand volleyball. Zorbaz is our religion.
13. High-fives from R.T. Rybak
Robert Judge
If you live in Minneapolis, you are enjoying a bittersweet summer as the last one with the country's best mayor. If you attend even one parade this summer, you'll probably get a high-five from a very sweaty R.T. as he runs through the crowd, crowd surfs, or does cartwheels down the parade course.
14. Brit's Pub
The bowling green, Chris Sullivan
Downtown bar Brit's Pub hosts a menu of beer and food from England in addition to a large grassy area on the rooftop for the British game of lawn bowling. Stretching out on the lawn in the midst of downtown skyscrapers is a very cool experience.
15. Renaissance festival
April Killingsworth
Dress up in a costume, play renaissance games and get lost in a completely different world. If jousting and wenches aren't your thing, they also sell huge turkey legs and mead.
16. Minneapolis Sculpture Garden
Spoonbridge and Cherry, Tim Wilson
An 11 acre park in the middle of Minneapolis and one of the largest sculpture parks in the U.S., the garden is the perfect place to spend an afternoon enjoying a book or a picnic. No Minnesota summer is complete without a photo in front of the Spoonbridge and Cherry.
17. Target Field
Outdoor baseball
Our poor baseball team has both never had their own stadium, and never played a home game outdoors until the 2010 season when they began playing at Target Field. Now everyone in Minnesota can cheer on the home team while getting a tan.
18. Hidden beach
What happens at hidden beach… David Goehring
You can swim with dogs and hippies! If you can find it.
19. Food Trucks
Hi, get in my mouth, vmiramontes
Food trucks are big in Minnesota. We love our snacks so much this summer boasts the first annual Food Truck Festival in Minneapolis. They're not the basic dishes of yore; these food trucks bring us delicacies like eggplant fries, lobster rolls and donut burgers.
20. Music and Movies in the Park
Cozy, waferboard
The City of Minneapolis provides a free event at seven days a week throughout the summer. Every night of the week in a different park there's a concert and a movie. For free!
21. Happiness
Nicolas Raymond
Minnesota ranks frequently among the happiest states in the nation. Minnesotans are having the best summer because no matter what time of year it is, we're usually happier than most of the country.
22. We deserve it
This is what a Minnesota beach looks like in May
Minnesota has some freaking grueling winters. Scraping ice off your car daily for five months can take a toll on your psyche, but what doesn't freeze you makes you stronger! It's no wonder Minnesotans are having a better summer than you are, we earned this.

Mark Matney, a traffic defense attorney based in Newport News, VA, was trying to figure out his marketing issues for a while. Mark was spending a lot of money on traditional forms of advertising like radio and direct mail but with questionable results. He needed something that would yield much more success and with a lot less maintenance.
At his previous law practice, Mark had worked with an online service that didn't pan out too well. As a result Mark was a little nervous about signing up with Yodle because of this experience. However, he soon realized Yodle was not just offering more leads but an entire marketing team at his fingertips. "They were offering to develop my website, track my calls, and do search engine optimization – a lot of things I wouldn't have been able to do as well on my own," he says.
Mark chose Yodle over other marketing companies because "I just liked the people I spoke with at Yodle best. I felt that I had a better sense of what online marketing was while speaking with reps at Yodle over other firms." He also felt strongly about the call tracking system, which allows him to replay his phone calls to make sure he never misses any information.
Out of all the Marketing Essentials™ features, Mark said the online client reviews are his favorite and he loves how they're displayed on his adversite. "People choose me because they can see my positive reviews on my home page and that makes everything stronger," he says. Mark also appreciates how quick and easy it is to request reviews.
Mark says that Yodle has become his primary marketing tool. Mark has found that most clients he's acquired through Yodle continue to refer him to other business giving him an even bigger return on investment.
Mark advises anyone launching a small business to consider Yodle. "They produce consistent results and take the headache out of advertising. Yodle does all the work. It has really helped me to launch my practice and keep it going," Mark confirms.

Q: Linux & Bash Chromosomes sorting files I need to combine all the files with genomic data in that particular way. It means it should be sorted first by numbers then alphabetically. The names of files are:
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.1.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.2.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.3.fa.gz
etc.
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.11.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.13.fa.gz
etc.
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.X.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.Y.fa.gz

I need to do it in bash as easy as possible; with no scripts etc.. I try to use sort -V and the others but it's still doesn't work. Any ideas? 8)

A: In the zsh shell,
print -l Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.*.fa.gz(n)

would print the files in the order you want:
$ print -l Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.*.fa.gz(n)
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.1.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.2.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.3.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.4.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.5.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.6.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.7.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.8.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.9.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.10.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.11.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.12.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.13.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.14.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.15.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.16.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.17.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.18.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.19.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.20.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.21.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.22.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.X.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.Y.fa.gz

The (n) at the end sorts the names resulting from the glob match by decimal integers.  The X and Y are left in lexicographical order at the end.
To combine these into a single file:
cat Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.*.fa.gz(n) >Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.combined.fa.gz

Note that I'm choosing a name that does not match the pattern, and that the gzip format allows this type of concatenation (uncompressing the compressed combined file would give you the combined data from all combined file).  If you have compressed this with bgzip then I think that you still should be ok.
Note too that if you have an M or Un chromosome (mitochondrial and unplaced scaffolds), these may mess up the sorting somewhat as you usually want these at the end.
You also get this sorting order with sort -t. -k5,5 -V (does "version sort" on the fifth dot-delimited field), while sort -V (without specifying a sorting field) would sort on 38 and not the chromosome numbers.

In bash:
printf '%s\0' Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.*.fa.gz |
sort -z -t. -k5,5 -V |
xargs -0 cat >Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.combined.fa.gz

This creates a list of all the relevant filenames and pipes them off to the sort command (which I have already explained).  After sorting, xargs reads the sorted names and calls cat on them to concatenate the data.  The output is written to a new file as in the zsh example.
Throughout the pipeline, the filenames are treated as nul-terminated strings.

A: Try
ls | sort -V -d

It returns
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.1.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.9.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.13.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.19.fa.gz
Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.dna.chromosome.X.fa.gz

I tried experimenting with -V option because it should natively handle "X" at the end and when you remove the dot before the character where numbering starts, it works. I wonder why though :)
EDIT:
The reason why -V option does not sort properly is given on GNU Coreutils's website (firstly, it is only dedicated for numbered/indexed versions.

Q: Passing dynamic argument to event handlers Hi I want to pass the dynamic argument to the click handlers. ClassResult make the ajax call and get the array of result and below I had passed the props to another component StudentResult. Now I want to get that props in click event handlers.
Code:
class ClassResult extends Component {

   constructor(props) {
     super(props);
     this.state = {terminal: 'Select Terminal', class : 'Select Class'};
     this.state = {
        result: []
   };

 return(){
    render(
         {this.state.result.map((post, i) =><StudentResult key={i} name={post.STDNAME} roll={post.STROLLNO} om={post.STDTOTALOM} division={post.STDDIVGRADE} percent={post.STPERCENTAGE} remarks={post.STREMAKRS} schoolid={post.SCHOOLID} regno={post.REGNO}/>)}

  }
}

class StudentResult extends Component {

   constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    axios.defaults.baseURL = 'http://localhost:8000/api';
    this.state = {fail : ''};
    this.displayDetailResult = this.displayDetailResult.bind(this, schoolid, regno);
   }

   displayDetailResult(e, schoolid, regno){
     //How to get schoolid and regno here

     alert(schoolid);
   }

   render() {
     if(this.props.percent < 50) {
              this.setState({fail : 'table-danger'});
            } else {
                this.setState({fail : ''});
            }
  return (

 this.displayDetailResult(e, this.prop.schoolid, this.prop.regno)}>
                { this.props.name }
                { this.props.roll }
                { this.props.om }
                { this.props.division }
                { this.props.percent }
                { this.props.remarks }

  )
}

A: The problem is in the way you are binding displayDetailResult in the constructor.
You have written
this.displayDetailResult = this.displayDetailResult.bind(this, schoolid, regno);

and henere schoolid and regno are not available,
You just need to write
this.displayDetailResult = this.displayDetailResult.bind(this);

and
call it like

and then in the displayDetailResult function you will have
displayDetailResult(e){
     console.log(this.props.schoolid, this.props.regno)
   }

Q: TCP Server Mono for Android Socket.bind I am trying to convert a code that can handle a TCP server in Mono for Android. It is the code from this chat app for Windows tutorial. However, I am getting the error:

ListenForClient Access Denied!

It is created by this part of the code:
try
{
    //We are using TCP sockets
    serverSocket = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork,
                              SocketType.Stream,
                              ProtocolType.Tcp);

    //Assign the any IP of the machine and listen on port number 1000
    IPEndPoint ipEndPoint = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 1000);

    //Bind and listen on the given address
    serverSocket.Bind(ipEndPoint);
    serverSocket.Listen(4);

    //Accept the incoming clients
    serverSocket.BeginAccept(new AsyncCallback(OnAccept), null);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    System.Console.WriteLine("@ ListenForClient" + ex.Message);
    Android.Util.Log.Info("ListenForClient", ex.Message);
}

It looks like that the serverSocket.Bind(IPEndPoint); is not allowed in Mono for Android.
Does anybody know a workaround or know why its not allowed?

A: Found a solution, it was 2 problems,
1) android manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
2) port 1000 is reserved!
