The pattern in women hair loss is very different from that of men, yet it's an issue that's becoming more and more prevalent. Dr. Bared spearheads the Women's Center for Hair Loss Diagnostic Clinic, offering state-of-the-art diagnosis and treatment – both medical and surgical—of hair loss in women.
Few facial plastic surgeons have mastered hair restoration with as much fervor and dedication as Dr. Bared. And yet, it's that unique combination that gives patients the advantage. With the aesthetic eye of a surgeon who understands facial anatomy like no other, Dr. Bared is able to bring a more holistic perspective to hair restoration.
Dr. Bared's philosophy with hair transplantation is the creation of a natural appearance. The goal is to enhance density to achieve fuller, thicker-looking hair. Dr. Bared achieves natural results by staying within the range of what's deemed appropriate for the patient's age and also what compliments the other features.
For women, the traditional "strip" technique is a preferable choice. Dr. Bared performs both types of procedures, and will recommend the most appropriate option during the initial consultation.
As with any cosmetic procedure, proper expectations of what can realistically be achieved and the proper motivation will make for a great patient experience.
Dr. Bared meets with all patients before the procedure. He will first review your medical history, family history of hair loss, methods you are currently taking to help slow down the progression of hair loss, and review your goals for the procedure. Dr. Bared will then assess the quality of your donor hair and examine your scalp. Before proceeding he will then make recommendations of what you can be doing to help slow down the progression of hair loss. At that point, if he feels that you are a good candidate for hair transplantation, he will discuss your options for donor hair harvesting.
Once the area has been designed by Dr. Bared in front of a mirror, you will then be brought in to one of the procedure rooms. You will be given the option of an oral sedative to place you at ease during the entirety of your procedure. If you are having the FUE technique you will be lying face down during the first couple of hours of the procedure while the hair grafts are extracted.
The hair transplant procedure is a very meticulous process where each incision is made by Dr. Bared followed by the individual follicular unit, or graft, that is placed into that incision. This process happens back and forth, repeatedly, until the procedure is completed.
Dr. Bared works with fully-trained hair technicians at the Foundation which have been in practice with Dr. Epstein for many years and are all highly experienced in the field of hair restoration.
Dr. Bared does not hire any temporary help for these procedures – only fully-trained technicians that are dedicated to this procedure.
Dr. Bared believes in a conservative lowering of the hairline, particularly in young men. Where hairlines meet, he ensures that the corner is not rounded and takes other precautionary measures to create a natural-looking outcome.
The amount of grafts is determined by several factors including the availability of donor hair and the type of harvesting method used.
Each individual heals at a different rate but, on average, it takes around a year to see the full results of a procedure.
You can expect for the initial grafts to fall out around one to two weeks following the procedure. This is expected as the grafts fall out at this time. Outcomes vary with each person, the type of hair loss, the pattern of hair loss, the quality of the hair, and the coarseness of the hair.
Dr. Bared may recommend the use of medications such as finasteride (Propecia© ) or low level laser light therapy to help slow down the rate of hair loss. Given that hair loss is progressive while the grafts transplanted are not susceptible to hair loss, patients will continue to lose their native hairs while the transplanted hairs remain. In order to help maximize the results, it is imperative that measures are taken to combat the hair loss.
All these factors and characteristics combine to give the various degrees of results after a transplant.


Wondering how to get rid of ants in the house? Put those pesky creatures in their place by following these 3 simple steps to get rid of ants.
Ants don't just invade cartoon picnics, they invade homes – and they are a common, troublesome problem. This simple 3-step guide on how to get rid of ants naturally can help you ensure that they won't become a problem.
You don't have to see ants around to get rid of them – prevention is the best solution. Avoid an ant invasion before it even happens; it's your best bet for a relaxed, ant-free life.
Ants are attracted to food sources, so your kitchen is usually every ant's preferred destination, especially if you have food lying around. If you don't want to be faced with those little monsters, read this list and make it a part of your daily routine. But if you already have ants and you're wondering how to get rid of ants in the kitchen, try step 3.
Cover any food that doesn't belong in the fridge.
Wash your dishes on the same day, and teach your children to do the same (even if they aren't too happy about it).
Take out the trash on a daily basis.
Wipe away any excess water on the counter, as ants like to stay near water sources.
Sweep your floors regularly, especially in the kitchen and under the dining table.
Try to identify where the ants enter your home – it's usually through a window, door or crack in the wall. You can use a magnifying class to better track them.
Most people don't have time to wait around watching ants, and who really wants to? It's a time-consuming process, but it will be worth it in the end. If you want to speed up the process, leave something sweet out as bait.
When you find the trail, follow the ants to find their nest.
Now that you've found the nest, it's time to get rid of it to eliminate the root of the problem.
Using a blender, mix several pieces of orange peel with around 120 ml of warm water. Pour the mixture on top of the ant nest.
Taking action is the final solution for how to get rid of ants in the house naturally. Finding the nest isn't always possible, so there are some alternative actions you can take.
The good thing about these solutions is that they are all natural as well as pet and child friendly – and you probably already have them around!
A homemade remedy you could try is a mixture of water and white vinegar. Put the mixture in a spray bottle and spray the trails of ants you spot in your kitchen. Use this mixture to wipe down the counters on a regular basis to keep them ultra clean and prevent any future infestations.
Another nifty solution is to use soapy water: mix a capful of liquid soap with a cup of water and put it in a spray bottle. Spray the mixture directly on ants whenever you see them. When they're caught in the mixture, wipe them out after five minutes, as this will help you remove them easily.
If you remove ants by using a cleaning product, like Jif, make sure to clean the surface afterwards to destroy the scent trail, so more ants don't follow. That way, ants will be less likely to come back.
If you've been battling these six-legged visitors, have no fear – these simple steps can rid your home of ants for good.
Knowing how to get rid of ants in the house is all about cleaning your surfaces and floors regularly – try the Jif Anti-bacterial Multi-purpose Spray. Just remember to follow the instructions on the label of your cleaning product.
Find their nest and destroy it – Step 2 shows you a natural way of doing this.
If you're wondering about how to get rid of ants naturally, opt for soapy water in a spray bottle and just spray the ants directly whenever you can spot them.
After spraying the ants and getting rid of them, clean all surfaces and floors to destroy their scent trail.
Remember to keep your kitchen clean at all times, and store or cover food properly so they don't return.

Q: how to fit three svg image equally in three grid col under one row It has been a month now since I work with the following issue but not succeed. I have three svg images with less difference in size and trying to fit them into one row adding them to different columns.
But unfortunately, the top text and those images are not fit equally. some get high padding top some bottom. I know the reason SVG width. I need help please.

Mission

A: Alignment in your example is made tricky because each image and its corresponding text reside inside the same div. If the outer division is the grid container, the grid items are the child divs, not the images or text.
By making the h3 tags direct children of the outer div container, they become grid items equivalent to the divs wrapping each image, giving a total of six grid items that can be arranged in three columns:

Notice the three h1 elements follow the three image divs - the six grid-items (all direct children of the grid container) will flow across the 'cells' created by the grid template specified for the grid container:
css:
.grid-container {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: auto auto auto;
}

Because three (equal) columns are specified, the first three items (the div image containers) occupy the three 'cells' of the top row. The next three items (the h3 labels) are pushed into the second row.
Each grid item can be made a flex container, allowing the position of the images relative to their div containers to be further refined. The containers themselves, including the labels, will always be aligned across the rows and down the columns.
The following working snipped applies the above principles to your example:

img {
  background: yellow;
}

.container {
  background: red;
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: auto auto auto;
  gap: 3px 50px;
  padding: 5%;
}

.container>div,.container>h3{
  border: 3px solid green;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  color: white;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 5px;
}

 grid items shown with green borders

Mission

The red area is a grid container specifying three equally spaced columns. The grid items are the direct children of the container (shown with green borders).

Each grid item is a flex container, allowing its content to be aligned and justified. The above example has the content aligned and justified to center. The content could be aligned by its baseline by changing the css align-items property to flex-end

in addition to the grid-template, the css for the grid-container specifies the gap between items across rows and beteen rows. The left, right, top, and bottom space surrounding the grid items is specified by the padding applied to the grid container.

There are several types of sash windows which have different costs. We can give you an idea of what to expect when asking for quotes for sash windows in 2018.
Notably there are regional variations on sash window costs, London and the South East, including Brighton will have higher labour costs. This is due to higher wages and living costs in these areas.
We will start with the cheapest sash windows, these are uPVC also known as plastic sash windows. The cheaper versions of these can be supplied and fitted for around £490 – going up to around £900 for the high quality versions such as Rehau or Kommerling. Other features that can add to the cost are tilt and turn – an extra £80 – £120 per window would be expected, also the spring mechanisms can vary. Make sure you check out the brands. The German made uPvc windows are generally the best.
Timber sash windows can now be bought online and there is an abundance of cheap Eastern European imports available. Although these have a place in the market, it's mainly dictated by budget. For instances if your windows need desperately replacing and you live in a conservation area where upvc will not be allowed, then you will be directed to opt for timber. However with a limited budget you will be forced to choose the cheapest option. This is where the cheaper European windows fit into the market place. These windows look nice however they are generally stapled and glued, the joints do come open and they will fail at the end of there warranty period if not before. Secondly these windows will not have local features such as bespoke mouldings and section sizes. These features are what make a sash window individual. The Eastern European windows are not always sold as such, so it may be worth asking the company first. The cost of these windows supplied and fitted will be £900 upwards depending on the company.
Hand made traditional timber sash windows, generally made locally by a specialist joiner with local knowledge will be bespoke and generally of a high quality. These include mortise and tenon joints, intricate mouldings and features, made as they were back in the day when timber sash windows would last 200 years. Of course your get you good and bad joiners so look at there reviews and the types of projects that they do.
Base cost for a traditional hand made double glazed document L FENSA sash window suitable for a conservation area / article 4.
Redwood timber sash windows of an average size of W 900 mm x H 1700 mm, fully supplied and fitted would start at £1400.
Factory paint finish £50 – £100 per sash window.
Stained Finished – Accoya sash windows and casement windows will last for hundreds of years.
High quality fittings / ironmongery £25 – £45 per sash window.
Slimlite units approximately £200 dependant on the amount of glazing bars. these are mainly used on listed buildings.
Please remember too check with your local planning office before you change your windows. Councils often enforce the reinstatement of original features in period proprieties and those where planning was required. Planning portal click here.
We hope we have answered your question on – How much does it cost to replace sash windows?

Pitot Tube
Home -> Lecture Notes -> Fluid Mechanics -> Unit-III
The pitot tube is a device to measure the local velocity along a streamline. The pitot tube has two tubes: one is static tube(b), and another is impact tube(a). The opening of the impact tube is perpendicular to the flow direction. The opening of the static tube is parallel to the direction of flow. The two legs are connected to the legs of a manometer or equivalent device for measuring small pressure differences. The static tube measures the static pressure, since there is no velocity component perpendicular to its opening. The impact tube measures both the static pressure and impact pressure (due to kinetic energy). In terms of heads the impact tube measures the static pressure head plus the velocity head.
The reading (hm) of the manometer will therefore measure the velocity head, and
v2/2g = Pressure head measured indicated by the pressure measuring device
i.e. v2/2 = Dp/r
à 1
Pressure difference indicated by the manometer Dp is given by,
Dp = hm(rm - r)g
Pitot tube - A convenient setup:
It consists of two concentric tubes arranged parallel to the direction of flow; the impact pressure is measured on the open end of the inner tube. The end of the outer concentric tube is sealed and a series of orifices on the curved surface give an accurate indication of the static pressure. For the flow rate not to be appreciably disturbed, the diameter of the instrument must not exceed about one fifth of the diameter of the pipe. An accurate measurement of the impact pressure can be obtained using a tube of very small diameter with its open end at right angles to the direction of flow; hypodermic tubing is convenient for this purpose.
The pitot tube measures the velocity of only a filament of liquid, and hence it can be used for exploring the velocity distribution across the pipe cross-section. If, however, it is desired to measure the total flow of fluid through the pipe, the velocity must be measured at various distance from the walls and the results integrated. The total flow rate can be calculated from a single reading only of the velocity distribution across the cross-section is already known.
A perfect pitot tube should obey equn.1 exactly, but all actual instruments must be calibrated and a correction factor applied.

Munising (/mjuːnəsɪŋ/ MYU-nə-sing) is a city in Alger County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 2,355 at the 2010 census. It is the county seat of Alger County.[4] The city is partially surrounded by Munising Township, but the two are administered autonomously.
Located on the southern shore of Lake Superior in the Upper Peninsula, it serves as the western gateway to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.
The name for the city comes from the Ojibwe word minisiing, "at the island".[5][6] A post office was established as the Munising post office on December 22, 1868. It was renamed as Gogarnville on October 23, 1889, when Julius Gogarn was appointed as postmaster. The office was moved to his farm. He was a German-born American Civil War veteran and first Supervisor of Munising Township. That post office continued until July 15, 1893.[7][8]
Munising is located on the southern edge of Munising Bay at 46°24′40″N 86°38′52″W / 46.41111°N 86.64778°W / 46.41111; -86.64778, also known as the South Bay of Grand Island Harbor, across from Grand Island around the mouth of the Anna River. It is the primary embarkation point for cruises to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and Grand Island National Recreation Area. Grand Island is located one half mile north in Munising Bay.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 9.03 square miles (23.39 km2), of which 5.25 square miles (13.60 km2) is land and 3.78 square miles (9.79 km2) is water.[9]
The Munising area has many waterfalls including Alger Falls, Horseshoe Falls, Memorial Falls, Munising Falls, Miners Falls, Scott Falls, Tannery Falls and Wagner Falls.
Munising has a humid continental climate (Köppen Dfb) with cool to warm summers coupled with cold winters with heavy lake-effect snowfall.

The ARCOS calls for special attention in Paris climate change deal to support the climate change adaptation in African mountains
As the Africa secretariat for the Mountain Partnership and Africa Regional Mountain Forum, Albertine Rift Conservation Society (ARCOS) calls for a special attention in Paris climate change deal to support the climate change adaptation in African mountains.

As the world gathers in Paris for the 21st Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP21) to shape a new international agreement on climate change that keeps global temperature increase below two degrees Celsius; the Albertine Rift Conservation Society (ARCOS) calls for special attention for mountains as one of the most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
It is important to note the differences that exist in how different ecosystems respond to climate change and thus reflect these differences in the adaptation and mitigation policies that are discussed. It has scientifically been proven and evidence abounds which shows, that some ecosystems are more vulnerable and some community groups disproportionately bear the blunt of climate change. Mountains ecosystems are among these and indeed mountains have come to be taken as the early warning indicators of climate change, due to their high susceptibility on the effects of changing climate. This, coupled with the cultural, historical and political characteristics of mountain communities, makes mountain dwellers the most exposed group of population in Africa and therefore equally disproportionate effort need to be put in supporting them to adapt to the effects of climate change.
Many approaches have been adopted in the adaptation plans and technology is sometimes one of the tools utilized for this end. However, in the case of mountain areas, increase of finance and efficient technologies are not enough. Given the highly important ecosystem services provided by mountains, such as water, an adaptation approach that aims at maintaining those services and reducing vulnerability of mountains' environments and their inhabitants is the most likely to bear good results. Indeed, such ecosystem-based adaptation initiatives have been piloted in many mountain areas in Africa and the success that has been registered by these initiative has added to the merits of this approach.
As the Africa secretariat for the Mountain Partnership and Africa Regional Mountain Forum, the ARCOS calls for special attention in Paris climate change deal to support the climate change adaptation in African mountains.

Everyone knows what a photo bomb is, but only devoted readers might know what a story bomb is. Story bombs are when authors put in names, titles, or even passages/quotes from other novels, usually ranging from classic literature to modern day bestsellers. Not only is it an ode to a fellow author; it proves that writers out there have a sense of humor or at least an appreciation for literary nostalgia. And I, for one, am following in their footsteps.
Under A Melting Sun, my current novel, has become a subtle minefield full of story bombs. When you have a character whose backstory is a librarian, it just opens the flood gates, especially for a classic literature lover. 😉 Since Under A Melting Sun takes place in 1937, most of the bombs were inspired from the Victorian writers. I'm not sure if its because the Amazon rain forest has left an extremely dark impression on me or the story line itself has drawn out to be both intense and melancholy, but many of the name drops are from Gothic writers, such as Bram Stoker and Mary Shelley.
However, one such goth writer who I have to point out is Edgar Allan Poe. ❤ I added tidbits about Poe not just for the sake of story bombing but as a personal joke. If you know me, you know about my Poe obsession. So story bombing him was pretty much a given.
But while this all started out as fun and games, it has turned eerily realistic. Under A Melting Sun starts off as a very light and easy read, the main character transitioning from journal entry to present day as he lives with a jungle tribe while waiting for his friend to return. Even when his own people stumble into the story, his mood is very simple: he's annoyed, agitated, and longing for home. Throughout most of the story, the mood changes smoothly from natural human reactions to realizations that filter in like sunlight through a dense canopy. But just as the meaning of the word "benighted" took hold of the atmosphere for The Benighted story, the backdrop of the Amazon Jungle has taken hold of the feelings of the characters in Under A Melting Sun.
That's exactly what's happening in Under A Melting Sun. In reality, there are stories of people often going mad while traveling through the Amazon. There was once a huge fear of mutiny and uprisings among those who were exploring, and often the South American jungle took people's health and their minds with it. Although the story I'm creating used the group of anthropologists as a means to an end of keeping them in the rain forest, the outcome has become realistically unpleasant. The focus Poe had on the psychology rather than the characteristic of his story has filtered into my own storytelling, turning a rather easy read into a chaotic mess of human realism. The Benighted seemed to have been a practice run for what Under A Melting Sun is trying to accomplish.
So for future readers of this historical fiction, I offer you a little warning: no matter how cute and funny this story portrays at times, there's always the calm before the storm.
How do you remain "sane" and not get too dark as you are writing characters who are dark?
Wonderful idea, story bombing a great term for it!
Sounds like an intersting development.

Differs from P.Veitchii in its smaller stature, not much exceeding 30 cm. high, and in its leaves which have longer bristly hairs on the midrib and nerves above, prominently long-bristly on nerves and midrib below ; the petioles and petiolules are also markedly bristly.Distribution. western china : Kansu, Minchow, in part, Purdom 719 (K) ; Sin long chan, Licent 4088 (K). Szechwan, Pingwu Hsien, Lungan Fu, Fang 4217 (K) (P).P.Veitchii var. Woodwardii differs from P.Veitchii by its dwarf habit, growing only about 1 ft. high, and by the increased hairiness on the edge and back of the leaves, petiole and stem. These characters appear constant when plants are grown from seed. Like P.Veitchii it is a diploid. Stapf described this plant as a new species under the name of P.Woodwardii; a full description was found among his papers after his death but as he had felt some doubt about it, it had never been published. He had originally intended to name it ' rosaeflora' but Mr. H. J. Elwes suggested that it should be called after the late Mr. Robert Woodward of Arley Castle, who first raised the plant from seed. Mr. Woodward was killed in action in 1915. The differences between this paeony and P.Veitchii do not appear to me to be sufficiently great to raise it to specific rank, rather it seems to be only a variety of P.Veitchii and I suggest it should be known as P.Veitchii var. Woodwardii. This charming pink paeony was found by Captain George Fenwick-Owen in 1912 at about 9000-10,000 ft., near Choni in Kansu, growing in open Yak grazing country. He collected seed from a plant growing in a tub at the Lamaserie at Choni. This seed is the origin of the plants now in cultivation. It is a delightful garden plant and easy to grow in any soil or situation. The flower is rose-pink and there are several flowers on a stem. It comes late out of the ground and grows quickly in the same way as P.Veitchii, coming into bloom in June. In my experience it comes true from seed with no variation in the colour of the flower if kept apart from P.Veitchii, but it is likely to cross with it if these two paeonies are grown near each other. Mr. Chad Woodward of Arley Cottage, Bewdley, writes in 1939 about this plant, " I grew about 350 from seed, and one of these had a white tuber instead of the usual reddish-brown. Its leaves came green from the start with no bronze colouring, and the stalks clear green ; and now it has pure white flowers." A paeony was collected by Farrer in Kansu under his number 554, a low growing plant about 1 ft. high with fiery magenta flowers. This plant was lost in my garden and there is, as far as I know, no dried specimen. It might also have been a form of P.Veitchii var. Woodwardii.

Silicon Valley Comic Con – Think Different
Silicon Valley Comic Con is on March 18th – 20th at the San Jose Convention Center, around the same time last year when Big Wow Comicfest was held and that's no coincidence. In true Valley fashion, the Silicon Valley Comic Con acquired Big Wow Comicfest, partly for their history of running and planning comic conventions and because they needed to secure a date and venue for the 3 day event. Even though Apple co-founder Steve Wozniack is only lightly involved in the planning, you can bet that his sphere of influence will resonate throughout the entire event. From special guests to technology themed panels, SVCC wants to differentiate itself from every other comic con in the world. The big question is whether or not con-goers will buy into it.

Star Wars Universe: Comics & Beyond
If I was ever asked which Star Wars trilogy that I relate to the most, I'd have to say the Original Trilogy. I actually never got to see this set of movies in the theaters because Return of the Jedi came out during my birth year but as a kid growing up, this definitely helped shape my love for sci-fi and epic space stories.

In my previous post about death in comics, we discussed the role of civilian deaths and how writers use it to propel their stories forward. In this post, I wanted to touch on a few superhero deaths that rocked the comic world. There were many to choose from and as iconic as Superman's death at the hands of Doomsday, but after doing research, I noticed an intriguing pattern; that dead superheroes don't stay dead for long! For this discussion, I wanted to focus on those superhero deaths that made an impact to their respective stories but also spent some time in the grave (so to speak).
We begin with a bold move by Brian Michael Bendis in the pages of Ultimate Spider-man with the "Death of Spider-man". In the Ultimate universe, Bendis kills off Peter Parker! Crazy right? But that's not where the story ends. Oh no! Bendis introduces us to Miles Morales, a half black, half hispanic teen who was bitten by a genetically-altered spider that gives him superhero powers. Sounds familiar, right? Miles actually witnesses Peter's death and feels so guilty that he didn't use his powers to save Peter, that he takes up the mantle of Spider-man.

Recommended Discussion: Retcon
Retroactive Continuity, or Retcon, for short is a term that is all together too common in the comic book world. It basically means that there's an alteration to an established fact within continuity, and comic book writers use this strategy to add, remove, and of course, alter stories.
With all the stories being written and new creative teams taking the reins for various properties, there always a chance things will get retconned. As a reader, it's something that I don't personally enjoy but I understand where publishers and writers are coming from. It sort of reminiscent of the music industry where nothing is original anymore. But with so many talented creatives entering the comic book industry, new stories are being thought up with fresh perspectives such as Scott Snyder's addition to the Batman canon with his Court of Owls story arc or Francis Manapul's work on The Flash.
But retcon examples litter the stories we read. A prime example when a writer added something that wasn't already established within continuity is what Brian Wood began on IDW's Star Wars before Kieron Gillan picked up the mantle when it moved over to Marvel. Wood started to write stories that involved all our favorite Star Wars characters from the point after the Battle of Yavin, right after Episode 1: A New Hope.

Emerald City Comicon 2015 Recap & Review
We were lucky enough to make the trip up from San Francisco to the Pacific Northwest to attend Emerald City Comicon for the first time – and it was definitely worth it. Considered part of the "Big 3" of comic book conventions among San Diego Comic-Con and New York Comic Con, it drew over 80,000 attendees from all over the country (and even overseas). It's not just comic books, however, but all things comic book and pop culture related – dealers, panels, celebrities, gaming, creators, cosplay and more. We managed to soak all of it up, and had a blast!
We wanted to attend ECCC for several reasons, but mainly because we've never been before and we've been to nearly every California convention already. While our main focus is comic books (obviously), we still like to attend panels, meet celebrities, do some gaming and sometimes cosplay ourselves. If comic book conventions are buffets, we like to sample a bit of every dish.
In this recap and review, we touch on different aspects of the show:

The Curious Case of Multiple Printings
When I visited my college town of San Luis Obispo during Christmas last year, I noticed that a new comic shop had opened up in downtown called Dr. Cain's Comics and Games. Of course, I had to swing by and check it out and it was actually stocked with a formidable amount of comics, trade paperbacks, and games. As I was perusing the aisle of new releases, I picked up a 3rd Printing of Thor #1. I had heard about this new Thor being a woman which the idea was intriguing to me, but I hadn't picked it up when it was first released. What amazed me was that the issue I was holding was the 3rd Printing!

Q: Get subdomain from url? I need to get some value from the url..
Like if the url was http://www.random.mysite.com/
Then I somehow want to get random.
But this should work aswell if it use www, http:// or https:// in-front of the url..
So how can this be done?
I tried this:
array_shift(explode(".",$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']));
It works if the url is http://random.mysite.com/, but if I put www in-front, then I get www returned instead?
Any ideas?

A: You can try
$url = 'http://random.mysite.com/';
$url = parse_url($url,PHP_URL_HOST);
$url = strstr(str_replace("www.","",$url), ".",true);
var_dump($url);

A: URLs without http[s]:// in front are not URLs. They're strings.
$hostname = preg_replace('~^https?://(www\\.)?~i', null, $url); // shift scheme and www
$hostname = preg_replace('~#.*$~', null, $hostname); // pop target
$hostname = preg_replace('~\\?.*$~', null, $hostname); // pop query string
$hostname = preg_replace('~/.*$~', null, $hostname); // pop uri
// no guarantee it's a valid hostname, there's more checks you can do here

Try this one. Why three steps? To be explicit so you understand what it does and to cater for complicated cases when you have no / and a ? directly. The order is important too. It could be combined in one strike but you need some testing to do it right... There's so many malformed URLs out there when you scrape a bit.

A: You can use parse_url to get everything after the http:// and https:// first.
Then, use explode to split the domain in different elements. For the special case where it could start with www, check the value of the first item in the exploded array. If the first one is www, then the second one must be the subdomain.
$url = 'http://www.sub.yourwebsite.com';
$parsed = parse_url($url);
$domain = explode('.', $parsed['host']);
$subdomain = '';

if ($domain[0] == 'www')
    $subdomain = $domain[1];
else
    $subdomain = $domain[0];

A: Depending on what you need it for, a cleaner solution might be to make sure you serve consistent URL's first. To redirect all http://yoursite.com to http://www.yoursite.com put this in your .htaccess file (in root directory assuming your using apache).
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^your-site.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.your-site.com/$1 [L,R=301]

More variations of this code here. This also helps a little with SEO, and is generally good practice.

A: Instead of selecting the first part of the domain and check if it is www, you can also start from the back. After you exploded the domain name, the last part will be 'com' and the part before that is 'yoursite'. The part before that is either 'random' or 'www'. 'www' is a subdomain itself and you could even say that 'www.random' is a different subdomain from 'random'.
Disadvantage is that a TLD can be '.com', but it can be '.co.uk' as well, in which case 'yoursite' would be considered a subdomain, while it isn't really.
What you often see, especially in frameworks or libraries that can be used in multiple sites, is a setting that lets you specify the main host name (yoursite.com). That way, you can easily concluse that everything between protocol:// and that host name is your subdomain.

I will rise up like the Atlanta Falcons or maybe even the sun, for I know every day above ground is a day I've won.
Because I am in tune with the Most High, I realize, that I can do anything that's in my mind.
I will come out on top and keep my feet on the ground.
Food on the table and clothes on my back, and no matter how hard life gets, I will never look back.
I will keep moving forward, no matter what the cost, no matter how hard life is.
I am thankful for the little things, even though life can have a hit and a miss.

Parity And Web3 Foundation Launch Polkadot PoC-1
May 21, 2018 Benjamin HålandLeave a Comment on Parity And Web3 Foundation Launch Polkadot PoC-1
Polkadot's PoC-1 proof of concept is now live. The platform has been designed to enable blockchains to scale, adapt, and communicate with one another.
Today, Web3 Foundation and Parity Technologies announced the release of their first proof of concept for Polkadot, PoC-1. The platform is intended to tackle some of blockchain technology's most pressing problems, like scalability, interoperability, and shared security. The two companies hope that PoC-1 will be a significant step toward the realization of a heterogeneous multi-chain that could enable trust-free interchain transactions.
Polkadot's stated plan to "revolutionize the blockchain space" by allowing chains to communicate with one another – sharing features like security measures or decentralized applications – is a markedly ambitious goal.
"PoC-1 follows in the footsteps of Ethereum's PoC-1," said Gavin Wood, the creator of Polkadot, Web3 Foundation president, and chief technology officer of Parity Technologies. "I'm excited to see a testnet going, and start kicking the tyres of some of the technology Polkadot and its underlying platform, Substrate, [are] bringing to the world including a proof-of-stake WebAssembly core, a self-defining state-transition-function and underlying approval vote-based governance."
The heart of Polkadot's platform is its "relay chain," which "connects blockchains together by coordinating transactions and consensus between chains." Per the lightpaper, "Polkadot allows new designs of blockchains to communicate and pool their security while still allowing them to have entirely arbitrary state-transition functions."
Polkadot purports to employ a governance system that empowers token holders in ways previously restricted to miners. "Polkadot token holders have complete control over the protocol. All privileges, which on other platforms are exclusive to miners, will be given to the relay chain participants (DOT holders) including managing exceptional events such as protocol upgrades and fixes."
The Polkadot network is being built under contract by Parity Technologies, with "stewardship" from the Web3 Foundation. "This milestone has an even larger significance due to the consequences of a well known event," said the release, acknowledging the massive Parity wallet freeze that occurred last November and still has over 500,000 Ether locked up (though the release made no mention of the significant July 2017 hack that exploited the multisig wallets).
Polkadot's PoC-1 is able to demonstrate the validation of blocks using a Byzantine fault-tolerant consensus algorithm on a testnet. Moreover, this particular platform is meant to be upgradable on-chain, so as not to require "forking procedures" to ensure the network's growth and adaptability. In other words, this is an early-stage milestone.
The Polkadot network is slated to go live in the third quarter of 2019.

Q: Custom style format in tinymce editor - override in theme? This is a follow up question to this:
Adding custom style format to tinymce editor
@Mangirdas Skripka or other Impresspages people:
In the answer to the above question: Are you suggesting to make an own version (widget/plugin) of the tinymce plugin or can I just override tinymce's default.js in my own mytheme/override folder?
Putting edited versions of default.js and Event.php in my theme's override folder does not work, not with any of these locations:
test 1: mytheme/override/Ip/Internal/Core/assets/tinymce/default.js and mytheme/override/Ip/Internal/Core/Level.php
test 2: mytheme/override/assets/tinymce/default.js and mytheme/override/Level.php
Can the standard text-plugin (tinymce) be overriden or do I need to make a new plugin/widget?
Thanks for your help!

A: Override folder is just for view files. JavaScript or other PHP files can't be overriden in override folder.
And dues to JavaScript nature you don't need files to be overriden. JavaScript allows you to override anything at any time. You better go by duplicating one of the existing plugins and adding your own rules.

Is Your State Pension or Retirement Plan Complicit in Migrant Abuse?
What would I have done? Would I have stood up to the fascist regimes as they rose to power?
We've all asked ourselves this question when faced with the horrifying truth that everyday citizens in Nazi Germany stood by in silence as their neighbors, colleagues, and friends were forced into cattle cars, bound for concentration camps and gas chambers.
Our responsibility to ensure history doesn't repeat itself goes far beyond this, however, and understanding how each of us can fight back against the administration's cruel immigration policies is as simple as following the money. With little transparency and accountability in the financial world, it's hard to know where our investment returns are coming from. That is to say, what corporate activities are driving up the value of our portfolio?
The horrible reality is that public state pension funds and retirement plans in twenty states have more than $2.5 billion invested in "just" four companies – General Dynamics, United Rentals, CoreCivic, and GEO Group – that are providing essential support for the administration's Zero Tolerance policy, including the concentration camps and detention centers where migrants have allegedly been tortured.
CoreCivic (formerly known as the Corrections Corporation of America) and GEO Group are the largest for-profit prison companies in the country; CoreCivic's South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas and GEO Group's Karnes Center in Kansas City, Texas are the largest family detention centers in the US and the vast majority of detainees at both facilities are seeking asylum.1 Parents desperately seeking information on their children's whereabouts have been presented with the option of either pursuing their asylum claim or being reunited with their child.
Plaintiffs in six federal lawsuits have alleged forced labor and other abuses in immigration detention facilities owned by CoreCivic and GEO Group, including threats of solitary confinement; revocation of family visitation rights; and withholding of water, food and medication which detainees could only afford by working for the respective company. According to independent medical experts, CoreCivic and GEO Group's practices have contributed to the deaths of numerous detainees, and advocacy groups continue to voice concerns over medical neglect, sexual assault, and horrifically unsanitary conditions at the companies' migrant detention centers. A recent report by DHS' internal watchdog concluded that ICE detention facilities, including those operated by CoreCivic and GEO Group, are not subject to rigorous oversight and therefore are not held accountable for substandard conditions; this conclusion is all the more alarming given that Trump's executive order provides for indefinite family detention.
While much of the media's attention has pivoted to the issue of family detention in light of the ACLU's successful battle for a nationwide injunction on family separation, the practice of of separating children from their parents at the border continues. This comes as no surprise given that a week after Trump signed the executive order "reversing" the family separation policy, HHS officials refused to answer questions about reports that children were still being separated at the border. The vast majority of children (nearly 3000) and parents originally detained under the Zero Tolerance policy have yet to be reunited; and the administration failed to meet the court order to reunite all detained migrant children under five by July 10th, with records showing that fewer than half of the identified children were reunited by the court's deadline. To make matters worse, administration officials have stated that they view placing migrant children in foster care as an equivalent to reuniting them with their actual families.
General Dynamics, a US defense contractor, is currently under contract with the Department of Health and Human Services for "cadre and infrastructure services for shelter care for unaccompanied children – training and technical assistance service area" at the Homestead Temporary Shelter for Unaccompanied Children in Florida, where children who have been forcibly separated from their parents under the administration's Zero Tolerance policy are being detained. ž The welfare of these children is now in the hands of a company that specializes in missile defense systems and combat vehicles. United Rentals appears to be providing rental equipment and infrastructure for the children's detention facility in Homestead, Florida and allegedly the tent city in Tornillo, Texas as well. In a recent statement from the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, experts concluded that placing immigrant children in detention facilities may, in and of itself, amount to torture. To make matters worse, the Homestead detention facility for migrant children is technically located on federal land, thereby exempting it from state child welfare inspections.
⋙ So, what can you do to change this?
The US Department of Homeland Security has indicated that the lack of resources, including building facilities, is one of the main reasons they have stopped separating families. By providing the very resources the administration depends on to commit such egregious human rights abuses against migrants, CoreCivic, GEO Group, General Dynamics, and United Rentals have played a crucial role in this nightmare; and they can reasonably be expected to continue doing so, absent sufficient pressure from their investors. To put that in legal terms, these four companies are aiding and abetting human rights abuses that qualify as crimes against humanity under international law. Continuing to invest in these companies with knowledge of their role in migrant abuse makes pension funds complicit.
EXPECT PUSHBACK – investors tend to resist calls to divest on the grounds that divesting means that they won't have a place at the table to push companies to change their behavior. This argument doesn't hold for companies like CoreCivic and GEO Group, whose for-profit prison business model – where the company has a financial incentive to incarcerate as many people as possible – is inherently irreconcilable with the concept of corporate social responsibility. No amount of pressure from investors can persuade a company to abandon its business model. Shareholder pressure can be leveraged to elect new board members or call attention to issues to change internal policy, but divestment is the only appropriate course of action for companies with a demonstrated history of systemic human rights abuses, like CoreCivic and GEO Group. Divesting from these two companies poses no threat to pension fund returns; CoreCivic and GEO Group's share prices have skyrocketed as a direct result of the administration's migrant abuse policy, and this makes it the ideal time to cash out and invest those earnings in a company whose long-term profitability isn't threatened by unsustainable corporate conduct.
The detention of migrant children and asylum-seekers constitutes a tiny fraction of General Dynamics and United Rentals' overall business activities. General Dynamics and United Rentals provide material support for concentration camps in Homestead, Florida and [allegedly] Tornillo, Texas where children rendered unaccompanied by the administration's Zero Tolerance policy are detained; these children must be reunited with their families as mandated by the court order. Keeping the facility open enables the administration's detention of innocent children, including 46 children under five who will never be reunited with their families. With the court-ordered deadline for reunification of all detained migrant children separated under the Zero Tolerance policy less than one week away, fewer than 15% of detained migrant children have been reunited with their families.
Financial complicity in these horrific abuses isn't an option, nor should it be. Investing in your future shouldn't come at the expense of the most vulnerable members of society. We have the power of $2.5 billion behind us - let's use it to demand an end to corporate human rights abuses!
Pick up the phone and call the phone number provided.
State which union you're a member of and repeat the asks in bold (above) for the respective companies. Read my statement to the CalSTRS board for inspiration.
If they respond by saying that they're already looking into it, ask for specifics: Which companies are they looking it? What are they specifically asking the companies to do (immediate asks and long term goal)?
We want to see concrete action and follow up!
Share this information with your colleagues and wider network! We know people are looking for ways to get involved and want to play an active role in ending migrant abuse, they just need the information.
Help us build a wider coalition! We have a letter template for people to sign on to and read or deliver directly to their respective state fund board members.
