Q: How to animate a second object in Vidle for python Well this is more of practice work than homework, but this code in VIDLE python(that comes as a sample code) is abouta ball bouncing. I want to add another ball but it doesnt bounce like the rest. Can some one help me make it work? and or add in another object? and any tips to make it fancy.....oh and can some one please be a life saver and tell me how to make it explode. no sound(although sound would be nice) just explosion.
here is the code:
from visual import *

floor = box(length=10, height=2, width=10, color=color.white)

ball = box(length=2, height=2, width=2, pos=(0,4,0), color=color.yellow)
ball.velocity = vector(0,8,0)

ball2 = sphere(length=2, height=2, width=2, pos=(2,4,2), color=color.cyan,     material=materials.wood)
ball2.velocity = vector(1,8,1)
dt = 0.04
dt2 = 0.01

while 1:
 rate(100)
 ball.pos = ball.pos + ball.velocity*dt
 if ball.y < 1:
    ball.velocity.y = -ball.velocity.y
 else:
    ball.velocity.y = ball.velocity.y - 9.8*dt

while 1:
 rate(100)
 ball2.pos = ball2.pos + ball2.velocity*dt2
 if ball2.y < 1:
    ball2.velocity.y = -ball2.velocity.y
 else:
    ball2.velocity.y = ball2.velocity.y - 9.8*dt2

A: Your code is "stuck" in the first while 1: loop.
Have a look at your code and ask yourself "when will this code be run"? about the second while loop.
The answer is "never", because it keeps going around the first loop.
You need to have only one loop handling both balls, instead of one loop for one ball then another loop for another one.
while 1:
 rate(100)
 ball.pos = ball.pos + ball.velocity*dt
 if ball.y < 1:
    ball.velocity.y = -ball.velocity.y
 else:
    ball.velocity.y = ball.velocity.y - 9.8*dt

 ball2.pos = ball2.pos + ball2.velocity*dt2
 if ball2.y < 1:
    ball2.velocity.y = -ball2.velocity.y
 else:
    ball2.velocity.y = ball2.velocity.y - 9.8*dt2

and can some one please be a life saver and tell me how to make it explode

You only get one question per question on Stack Overflow ;)
About exploding: you need to get a lot more familiar with the basics of python (like how loops work) before you can do an explosion.

The Association of British Insurers (ABI) has offered tips to drivers on how to take full advantage of 'pay how you drive' car insurance, which rewards motorists who drive sensibly.
Small in-car computers called a black box are used by insurers to gauge how the vehicle is being driven.
Insurers weigh up information such as speed, braking and acceleration trends, as well as risk factors like the motorist's age and occupation when they consider a fair car insurance quote.
The ABI has teamed up with the British Insurance Brokers Association (BIBA) to publish two guides.
One tells motorists how a pay how you drive policy works, and emphasises the importance of driving behaviour on their insurance.
BIBA CEO Steve White said the association welcomes any initiative that results in greater transparency and trust, and which ultimately benefits consumers.
"The ABI and BIBA good practice guide will ensure that customers can trust their insurer to use their telematics data responsibly, and that customers receive all the information they need to understand how their telematics policy works.
"That can only be a good thing," he said.


Partnership Africa Canada is working with artisinal miners in eastern DRC to purchase legally mined gold.
In the DRC (Democratic Republic of the Congo) nearly all the gold is mined by artisinal miners whose mining practices are dangerous and uncontrolled.
According to the International Peace Information Service, about $28 billion worth of gold lies underground in eastern Congo, but 98% of it leaves the country illegally. Gold mining in the region is run by armed groups who patrol the mines.
Last week however the efforts of a new group aiming to move legally mined, conflict-free gold out of the DRC came to fruition.
According to the CBC, Joanne Lebert, executive director of Partnership Africa Canada (PAC), brought 238 grams of gold purchased from mines near the remote town of Mambasa. The PAC says the gold was one of the first legal gold purchases from the Congo. It will be sent to a jewellery store in Toronto that makes fair-trade gold jewellery.
In May the Ottawa-based NGO announced it had successfully implemented a system to trace legal and conflict-free artisanal gold in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The Just Gold project creates incentives for artisanal gold miners to channel their product to legal exporters—and eventually responsible consumers—by offering fair and transparent pricing and by providing capacity-building, such as technical assistance to miners in return for legal sales. Miners are taught better exploitation techniques and offered Just Gold project equipment, in return for which any gold produced must be tracked and sold through legal channels.
"Proving that artisanal gold in eastern Congo can be conflict-free, legal and traceable is a major step in responsible sourcing efforts in the Great Lakes region. The government of Democratic Republic of Congo is taking major strides in complying with regional standards and demonstrating how the implementation the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains can contribute to progressive improvements in the sector, supporting artisanal gold men and women miners to enter international markets," Lebert said in a press release.
Partnership Africa Canada signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Democratic Republic of Congo's Minister of Mines Martin Kabwelulu on September 2016, outlining support for the organization's activities to strengthen natural resource governance. Specifically, the Ministry of Mines recognized the Just Gold project as a system of traceability and encouraged its implementation.

NASHVILLE—The United Auto Workers (UAW) union qualified for the top tier of a new labour policy at Volkswagen AG's plant in Tennessee, giving the union its first formal role within a foreign-owned auto plant in the southern United States.
Volkswagen said an independent auditor has verified that the UAW's Local 42 had signed up at least 45 per cent of workers at the Chattanooga plant.
That will entitle the union to biweekly discussions with managers and to frequent access to the plant for meetings, notices and other organizing activity.
While the policy doesn't address collective bargaining, UAW secretary-treasurer Gary Casteel called it a "starting point" for achieving that goal at the plant where he said the union already represents more than half the workers.
The UAW narrowly lost a union vote at the plant in February after a campaign that included warnings from Republican lawmakers that state incentives needed to expand the plant could be threatened if the union won.
Casteel said that negotiations with Volkswagen management later resulted in the union dropping a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) challenge in exchange for later being recognized as the representative of its members at the plant without another vote.
"We believe Volkswagen made this commitment in good faith and we believe the company will honour this commitment," Casteel said.
Under federal labour laws, a company is allowed—but not required—to recognize a union that has signed up at least half of all workers.
UAW opponents like Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam have called on Volkswagen to require another secret ballot.
Organizing foreign-owned auto plants in the U.S. has been seen as key for the UAW to revive its fortunes.
UAW membership stood at about 391,000 at the start of this year, a far cry from its 1979 peak of 1.5 million.
Volkswagen's policy of giving labour groups access to its plant stands in contrast to other foreign automakers in the South, which have largely tried to tamp down union activity.
The company has said the policy is aimed at developing a "constructive dialogue" between workers and management beginning with labour groups that sign up at least 15 per cent of workers.
Workers who spearheaded the 712-626 defeat of the UAW in the February union vote have created their own organization called the American Council of Employees, but have so far failed to qualify under the plant's new labour policy.
VW management has been under heavy pressure from powerful worker representatives who control half of the automaker's board in Germany because the U.S. plant is alone among the company's worldwide facilities without labour representation.
The company wants to create a German-style works council at the Tennessee plant to represent salaried and hourly workers.
Under that model, wages are bargained through the union, while the works council negotiates matters like job security and working conditions.
The same law requiring labour representation on the Volkswagen board also applies to other German automakers with factories in the South, like BMW AG and Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler AG.
The UAW has so far failed to make inroads at those companies' plants in South Carolina and Alabama, and Republican officials there have been keen to keep it that way.

Q: What is the difference between JOSE, JWA, JWE, JWK, JWS and JWT? What is the difference between JOSE, JWA, JWE, JWK, JWS and JWT and how are they related to one another?

A: JOSE stands for JSON Object Signing and Encryption. It's a set of standards used to sign and encrypt data using JSON-based data structures. In other words, JWA, JWE, JWK, JWS, and JWT are all part of JOSE.
TL;DR:

*

*JWA: Defines a set of crypto algorithms and identifiers used in JWE, JWK and JWS.

*JWK: Defines a representation of crypto keys used as input for the algorithms defined in JWA using JSON-based data structures.

*JWE: Defines encrypted content using JSON-based data structures. The encryption/decryption is performed with the algorithms defined in JWA.

*JWS: Defines signed content using JSON-based data structures. The signing/verification is performed with the algorithms defined in JWA

*JWT: Defines subject claims using JSON-based data structures. The claims can be optionally protected via JWE or JWS.

Longer version:
JWE (JSON Web Encryption) represents encrypted content using JSON-based data structures. JWE is used to share data between parties with authentication (ensure data comes from sender it claims to be), confidentiality (ensure only receiver can decrypt data), and integrity (ensure data was not altered by a third-party during transit). JWE supports both symmetric key cryptography (single key used to encrypt and decrypt) and asymmetric key cryptography (public key used to encrypt, private key used to decrypt).
JWS (JSON Web Signture) represents content secured with digital signatures or Message Authentication Codes (MACs) using JSON-based data structures. JWS is used to share data between parties with authentication and integrity. JWS provides a lighter weight counterpart to JWE when confidentiality is not required. JWS supports symmetric key-based MACs (single key used to sign and verify) and asymmetric key-based digital signatures (private key used to sign, public key used to verify).
JWE encryption and JWS signing is performed using a cryptographic algorithm. These algorithms and their corresponding identifiers are defined in JWA (JSON Web Algorithms).
The cryptographic algorithms specified in JWA use cryptographic keys as input. JWK (JSON Web Key) defines a representation of cryptographic keys using JSON-based data structures.
JWT (JSON Web Token) is a compact, URL-safe means of representing claims about a subject to be transferred between two parties. A JWT is a form of claims-based identities used in claims-based authentication. JWTs can be optionally protected via JWE or JWS. The minimal representation of a JWT consists of a JOSE header and the claims (also known as payload in the context of JWS and plaintext in the context of JWE).

Here are three JWT values for the claim { "foo": "bar" }:
Unprotected (no signature/encryption):

*

*Minimum JOSE header is: { "alg": "none" }

*JWT value is: eyJhbGciOiJub25lIn0.eyJmb28iOiJiYXIifQ (header + "." + claims)

Protected via JWS:

*

*Using JWA with id: HS256 (HMAC using SHA-256)

*Using JWK with value: { "kty": "oct", "k": "AAECAwQFBgcICQoLDA0ODwABAgMEBQYHCAkKCwwNDg8" }

*Minimum JOSE header is: { "alg": "HS256" }

*JWT value is: eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJmb28iOiJiYXIifQ.QqnxrmVYNzUZe2xJeSZIBMoELSfxW144gSAvdBTeXCo (header + "." + payload + "." + signature)

Protected via JWE:

*

*Using Key Management Mode: dir (Direct Encryption)

*Using JWA with id: A256GCM (AES GCM using 256-bit key)

*Using JWK with value: { "kty": "oct", "k": "AAECAwQFBgcICQoLDA0ODwABAgMEBQYHCAkKCwwNDg8" }

*Minimum JOSE header is: { "alg": "dir", "enc": "A256GCM" }

*A possible JWT value is: eyJhbGciOiJkaXIiLCJlbmMiOiJBMjU2R0NNIn0..69fkCssY6yzSKVtt.3kRb3CHlZdwB1kBrwQ.mkwzT_wBpi6W7mXgjbxmvw (header + ".." + initialization vector + "." + ciphertext + "." + authentication tag)

Note: The word "possible" is used in the JWE example because the IV (initialization vector) is randomly-generated. Thus there are many valid variants of the same JWT claims encrypted with JWE using the same key.

What's Near Magens Point Resort | Caribya!
Some of the best tourist attractions in all of the Virgin Islands are the beaches. Here, you shouldn't be too far from multiple options.
Magens Bay is the closest choice to consider near Magens Point Resort. Because this beach can be found a half mile from the resort, you won't have to go far to see it. Magens Bay, located on the island of St. Thomas, is considered one of the best beaches in the area, featuring more than half a mile of protected, white beaches. With high praise comes many visitors, as the beach area is typically crowded, though the clear, calm waters make the location almost irresistible. You won't have to feel rushed or uncomfortable while visiting, considering the amenities include showers and restrooms.
If you're interested in a place where surfers and sunbathers can find solitude, Mandahl Bay Beach could be a better choice for you. Popular amongst anglers moreso than swimmers, Mandahl Bay is rather secluded. On any given day you can stop by and see a handful of people fishing from shore, and perhaps some visitors walking along the shore. It's located just a short trip away.

Respondents were told, "Please tell us whether you strongly agree, somewhat agree, somewhat disagree, or strongly disagree with each of the following statements: Most economists are conservatives who are trying to push an ideological agenda with their research."
Respondents were told, "Please tell us whether you strongly agree, somewhat agree, somewhat disagree, or strongly disagree with each of the following statements: Most economists are conservatives who are trying to push an ideological agenda with their research." Measurement of Party ID for this figure is based on two questions. First, respondents were asked whether they consider themselves to be a Democrats, Republicans, independents, other, or not sure. Those who responded that they are independents or "other" were then asked if they lean toward either the Democrats or Republicans. If they indicated that they lean toward one party or the other, they are considered Democrats or Republicans for the purposes of this figure. Only "pure" independents or members of a third party who indicate that they have no preference for Democrats vis-a-vis Republicans are considered independents. Respondents who answered that they are "not sure" for either of the two aforementioned questions are not incorporated into this figure.
Respondents were told, "Please tell us whether you strongly agree, somewhat agree, somewhat disagree, or strongly disagree with each of the following statements: Most economists are conservatives who are trying to push an ideological agenda with their research."

Respondents were told, "Please tell us whether you strongly agree, somewhat agree, somewhat disagree, or strongly disagree with each of the following statements: Most economists are conservatives who are trying to push an ideological agenda with their research." Ideology is measured on a scale of 1-7, with 1 corresponding to "extremely liberal", 7 corresponding to "extremely conservative, and 4 corresponding to "in the middle." For the purposes of this table, respondents who placed themselves at or between points 1 and 3 on the scale are considered "liberal," respondents who placed themselves at point 4 on the scale are considered "moderate," and respondents who placed themselves at or between points 5 and 7 on the scale are considered conservative.
Respondents were told, "Please tell us whether you strongly agree, somewhat agree, somewhat disagree, or strongly disagree with each of the following statements: Most economists are conservatives who are trying to push an ideological agenda with their research."

COVID-19 Vaccinations to be Required for All East Cooper Medical Center Staff
Mount Pleasant, SC – After thoughtful deliberation, East Cooper Medical Center will begin requiring all employees and others working in the facility to be vaccinated for COVID-19. This policy will require that all workers, including employees, remote workers, physicians, medical residents, fellows, trainees, contractors, medical staff, students, temporary workers and volunteer staff, be fully vaccinated with an FDA authorized COVID-19 vaccine by November 1, 2021.
"This decision is in keeping with our commitment to providing a safe environment for our patients, visitors, employees and others working in the hospital, and the people of the communities we serve," said Patrick Downes, Chief Executive Officer. "The science shows us the COVID-19 vaccines are effective, safe and your best protection against the virus. Our goal is to do all we can to save lives, slow the spread of COVID-19 and eventually bring an end to the pandemic."
"Our patients put their trust in us to protect them and provide the care they expect and deserve," Downes continues. "It is critical that we take this step to help ensure we maintain their trust and keep them as well as our employees, other workers, and medical staff safe and not put them at unnecessary risk from this deadly virus, especially in light of concerns related to the Delta variant."
"As the community's leading health care provider, East Cooper Medical Center has a responsibility to lead by example on this critical issue. We hope our efforts help to inspire people in the community to realize how important it is that they get vaccinated to protect themselves and their loved ones," Downes concludes.
Individuals seeking an exception for medical or religious reasons may do so but will be required to take strict precautions that will include frequent testing.

What is An Artist's Style?
Mont St Victoire by Paul Cezanne
What is it the characterizes an artist's style? Is it the colours that he uses? Subject matter? The way the paint is applied and brushwork? No doubt all of these features are part of it, but is it important? Is there not more to this topic that requires more insight?
For many who do not paint there is much emphasis placed on an artist's style. In many cases an artist gets pegged to a certain style and finds himself stuck. Use the same "style" to get sales. Change the style and sales fall away. It is a dangerous situation for an artist to stick to one method, because that disempowers the artist. Is it still art to churn out facsimiles of previous work? It brings short term rewards, but long term? Certain stagnation.
I would suggest that instead of a certain style (whatever that means) a true artist will seek only one thing: an interpretation. The artist's identity comes into play when the artist interprets the subject and paints that interpretation. That is the only truth that an artist has. Anything else is a copy of something else.
Looking at Cezanne's painting above it is clear what the subject is. Yet Cezanne's passion for painting this mountain is based not on his love of scenery. It is based on his interpretation of the shapes, light and colour. That is what is unique.
As Cezanne progressed in his interpretation of shapes into increasingly flat planes light itself became less important. He started to use pure colour to suggest shapes instead of light to depict three dimensions. As a result the picture began to flatten to two dimensions. Cezanne probably never intended this at the time, but his quest for purity of shape was how he interpreted the subject.
If an artist is too caught up in producing the same set of bluegum trees or transparent green waves then interpretation is abandoned. There is no more art and we are left with a craft where repetition is all important.
What will the critics say when your landscape undergoes a radical change in approach? Ideally you should not care. Your idea and interpretation is unique to you - the artist. The only constant is change so embrace change. Beware of time leading to sameness. Resist!
In the end all an artist has to say is found on the canvas. Whether the viewer can access the artist's message is not the artist's burden. If the artist is true to his soul then the message will be heard when the time is right. In Cezanne's case the message was heard by some who followed with their own interpretations. One of those was a young artist called Pablo Picasso. The process of change continued.

Among low cholesterol recipes, soups that are low in fat happen to be very popular. Folks with high cholesterol love to have these soups as they are really tasty. These soup recipes provide a balanced and fat free food and could be of great assistance in dietary control for high cholesterol afflicted folks.
These soups to some extent also contribute to reduce level of LDL cholesterol. Some of these soups come under traditional recipes while some new soup recipes have also come on the block.
A very common of all soups among cholesterol patients is Lentil soup that could be easily prepared. Ingredients are tomatoes, onion, celery, carrot, curry powder and lentils. A balanced proportion of all these contents could be used to prepare this soup. These ingredients could be boiled together for ten minutes to be consumed. You may add chili pepper, chili powder or green chili as per your taste buds.
Cabbage soup could also be given to cholesterol patients. This soup is prepared with cabbage, ginger, black pepper, onion, green chili, tomatoes and sherry. Its ingredients contribute to very little or negligible cholesterol content. The soup is free of saturated fat content.
The other soup suited to people with high cholesterol is made with squash and sweet potato. This soup, in combination with salads that are rich in fibers are often offered to cholesterol patients. This soup must be prepared in canola oil. One pound each of squash and sweet potato could be used to prepare soup for four people. Other ingredients of this soup are chives, onion, black pepper and ginger. The soup may include chicken broth.
A cholesterol afflicted person may enjoy a bean and spinach soup. Even in this soup you can use chicken broth. This soup could also serve the purpose of lowering LDL due to presence of beans. Other ingredients of soup are carrot, celery sticks, tomatoes and dried oregano. Rotini is also added to it. Doctors often recommend this recipe to obese folks who are likely to develop cholesterol problem.

Q: How to update multiple rows in database with different values in c#? I have a problem. I have a table named "RollNoSlip" which has a column named "AttendanceStatus". I have list variable named "getAttendance" of type "List<string>". I want to assign each values to each record of "RollNoSLip". Attendance column can contain "P" or "A". Problem is its showing only P in all records. Why?
var getAttendance = (from r in db.RollNoSlips
                                 from a in db.Attendances
                                 where r.RollNo == a.RollNo
                                 select a.AttendanceStatus).ToList();
using (var con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["IQTSConnectionString"].ConnectionString))
            {
                con.Open();
                using (var cmd = new SqlCommand("update RollNoSlip set AttendanceStatus=@Attendance where RollNo between  10001 and 10045", con))
                {
                    cmd.Parameters.Add("@Attendance", SqlDbType.VarChar);
                    for (int i = 0; i < getAttendance.Count; i++)
                    {
                        cmd.Parameters["@Attendance"].Value = getAttendance[i];
                        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
                    }
                }
            }

A: The reason you get all 'P's is that the last record in getAttendance list happens to have a 'P'. Had it been an 'A', all your records would be set to an 'A'.
You need to process items separately, passing their IDs to SQL:
// Include RollNo in getAttendance list
var getAttendance = (from r in db.RollNoSlips
                     from a in db.Attendances
                     where r.RollNo == a.RollNo
                     select new {a.AttendanceStatus, a.RollNo}
).ToList();
...
// Updates getAttendance rows in the database, one row at a time
using (var cmd = new SqlCommand("update RollNoSlip set AttendanceStatus=@Attendance where RollNo=@RollNo", con))
{
    cmd.Parameters.Add("@Attendance", SqlDbType.VarChar);
    cmd.Parameters.Add("@Attendance", SqlDbType.Int);
    for (int i = 0; i < getAttendance.Count; i++)
    {
        cmd.Parameters["@Attendance"].Value = getAttendance[i].AttendanceStatus;
        cmd.Parameters["@RollNo"].Value = getAttendance[i].RollNo;
        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
    }
}

A: Assume you use SQL Server, then use the query below to update AttendanceStatus.
UPDATE RollNoSlip SET
  AttendanceStatus = A.AttendanceStatus
FROM RollNoSlip R
INNER JOIN Attendance A ON R.RollNo = A.RollNo
WHERE R.RollNo BETWEEN 10001 AND 10045


Nine Lives: In Search of the Sacred in Modern India, is yet another travel book on India by William Dalrymple, whom I have come to respect and admire, after reading his various other books on the Indian Sub-Continent and thankfully, this book is no different! Of course where it does differs from the rest is in the way it has been presented to the readers, even though the writing style is still typical William Dalrymple (which is a good thing).
Nine Lives as you might have guessed it, is a book about the lives of 9 individuals in the Indian Sub-Continent, who are at times, battling the odds to keep the traditions alive and stick to their way of life, amidst a rapidly changing India and an increasingly talibanized Pakistan (one of the protagonist's lives in Pakistan).
Though William Dalrymple manages to do justice to almost all the 9 protagonists in this book and at the same time, manages to keep the book from becoming humongous, one cannot help but feel that a fewer number of protagonists, might have made the book a little more in-depth and even more interesting.
Of course it is also true that with so many stories compiled in one book, it is highly unlikely that one would end up liking each of them and this was the case with me as well, as I found couple of them a little boring, while adored The Monk's Tale the most!
Overall its another feather in William Dalrymple's hat and Nine Lives: In Search of the Sacred in Modern India, turns out to be an interesting read for anyone, who is interested in the epic that is India.

Arcade emulator MAME aspires to be a 'learning tool for developers'
Microsoft celebrated their 40th anniversary this year, and to mark the occasion Bill Gates sent a motivating letter to employees. It started with: "Early on, Paul Allen and I set the goal of a computer on every desk and in every home. It was a bold idea and a lot of people thought we were out of our minds to imagine it was possible."
Beyond proving that goal was just possible, Microsoft's software moved out of our homes and off our desks to power a variety of things such as healthcare systems and ATMs. This is often forgotten, but Microsoft has empowered people for years.
Of course it's not always been plain sailing for Microsoft, especially in recent years. The core vision to empower people felt like it had been lost, and replaced by desperate and arrogant attempts to grasp onto their own power as it became eroded by competitors such as Apple and Google who have brought their own industry-changing innovations to market.
Former leadership and friction between teams were often called-out as the reasons why Microsoft struggled to move fast in response to these emerging threats. But the company is full of talent, and a look into the Microsoft Research labs will quell any fears that the firm is unable to innovate. The problem the company has held over the past few years has been the ability to deliver.
This has led to many employees jumping ship, a trend which has reversed in recent months as many have returned or Microsoft joined from competitors. That is the clearest sign of a company which has turned its fortunes around and is quickly becoming the place where people want to be.
Gates wrote in his letter: "Under Satya's leadership, Microsoft is better positioned than ever to lead these advances. We have the resources to drive and solve tough problems. We are engaged in every facet of modern computing and have the deepest commitment to research in the industry. "
But the biggest challenge for Microsoft is becoming the place that developers want to be. Getting people back creating for their ecosystem from new and lucrative platforms such as iOS and Android is not an easy task. Instead of coming out swinging at their Build conference this week, the company has come out embracing.
Microsoft is making it easy to move your apps from Android, iOS, or even the web onto the newfangled Windows Store. From there you are able to deploy to a wide-variety of devices including unique and exciting hardware such as HoloLens.
HoloLens is Microsoft's biggest game-changer, and it is how the company can change the world if it has learned from its past mistakes. Nothing in technology has blown my mind as much as HoloLens and the potential it holds to make my geek dreams come true of creating a true virtual reality that is not just a gimmick.
The demonstration where a user is able to customise their living space to their liking is cool, but we like to see new things with unlimited potential. When Apple introduced the iPhone and a unique new way of interacting with our devices, the boys and girls at Cupertino delivered just that. Microsoft has taken that a step further by interacting with any machine in a custom interface.
Gates wrote: "I hope you will think about what you can do to make the power of technology accessible to everyone, to connect people to each other, and make personal computing available everywhere even as the very notion of what a PC delivers makes its way into all devices. "
Microsoft rolled-out an unassuming robot based on a £ 30 Raspberry Pi 2, which offered the most impressive demonstration yet. At a voice command, the robot became a fully-manoeuvrable hologram which could display a variety of interactions to the user.
What is so incredible about this is that it is accessible and allows anyone with the willpower to make cost-effective devices around the world; especially in this age of the Internet of Things. Councils and business could deploy assistants or interactive panels wherever users would benefit.
As we mentioned earlier, Microsoft has been behind-the-scenes for decades providing the software to devices like healthcare systems and ATMs. Now the company will be powering the next-generation of "things". Imagine entering an ambulance and a hologram is already preparing the information it needs to provide to the paramedic, or that ATM having the appearance of an actual assistant rather than a 90s TV stuck in the wall.
Microsoft is going back to its roots, and that is incredibly exciting. Whether it's the leadership of a talent like Satya Nadella, the return of Bill Gates as a key advisor, or the combination of both ... the company is back to empowering people, and machines.
Do you feel that Microsoft has become exciting again? Let us know in the comments.

Home/Ownership/Palihouse Miami Beach To Become Hotel Trouvail Miami Beach
Palihouse Miami Beach To Become Hotel Trouvail Miami Beach
Driftwood Hospitality Management announced it would take over management of the Palihouse Miami Beach and officially rebrand the property as Hotel Trouvail Miami Beach, effective today. Inspired by the French word trouvaille, Hotel Trouvail is a "lucky find" for those who appreciate stylish chambers, charming cocktails and an intimate exclusivity amidst the famous Art Deco architecture in Miami Beach. Once the Greenbriar Hotel, which was later relaunched as the Palihouse Miami Beach, the newly established, independent Hotel Trouvail leans into its unique character and location to bring a new, French-inspired story and experience to the area.
"We are excited to bring this new concept which promises a more St. Tropez-meets-Miami experience," said Regional Director of Operations for Driftwood Hospitality Management, Scott Cornelius. "The rebrand will maximize the investment made in the interior of the building and elevate the property to a more sophisticated experience, appealing to a new, affluent clientele."
A hidden gem in Miami Beach, guests will find Hotel Trouvail appealing for its somewhat secluded nature, situated steps away from the sand and nightlife while remaining a world away from the commotion. Located on the Indiana Creek Waterway in a restored Art Deco building, the hotel is close to Miami's best in art, culture, restaurants, and shopping. With 70 well-appointed rooms and studios – most with kitchenettes – the property melds hotel service and amenities with AirBnB-sized rooms.
The French-inspired restaurant, which will debut in early 2023, will feature a bar menu with hand-crafted and seasonal cocktails including French-inspired classics and South of France roses and bubbles, and guests can dine on French pastries, crepes, and salads for an authentic French culinary experience. For wine lovers, there will be a selection of more than 12 wines by the glass and several high-end sommelier selections featuring New and Old World wine regions highlighting French wine regions, including Rhone, Provence, Languedoc Roussillon, and more.
Hotel Trouvail is located at 3101 Indian Creek Dr, Miami Beach, Fla. 33140. The property is owned by Greenbrier Partners, LLC, and will be managed by Driftwood Hospitality Management, LLC.

After the first season (we'll not do spoilers in this article) a wonder popped into my mind: "How different would have been Peggy and Captain America love story if they continued to live in the same era?" I think a lot, actually. Let's face it. Peggy Carter has literally kidnapped thousands and thousands of hearts all around the world and, this year; she became even more beloved than her Steve.
But the Peggy we met in Agent Carter is a strong woman who fight on two different fronts: against a world dominated by men who see her as someone useful just in bringing coffee; and a more personal war against Steve's painful memories.
Now, if Steve had come to the dance; there would be two different options: or Peggy would not have become the heroine who we met in Agent Carter because she had not the push of the pain caused by the loss of her beloved; or she would be the further proof that behind a successful man there is always a great woman, and she and Steve would make one hell of a team. There is also a third option, actually: in the parallel universe created in The House of M, they would get married and then they divorced, maybe because Cap could not accept Peggy's work superiority?!?! Unfortunately, we cannot know.
Listening to Hayley Atwell we understand up front we are, actually, in the presence of one hell of a team on and off screen, even without Cap.
Those who follow the actor on her socials will have already realized that we are talking about her friendship with Jamie D'Arcy (Edwin Jarvis). The two actors have been involved in the last few days in fun music videos become viral within minutes on the net.
However, what is it that made the world to fall in love with Agent Carter? Certainly her glamour and her impeccable make-up but, Hayley told us in one of her many anecdotes that the strength of this series is the ability to show, especially to the new generations, really strong women and the importance of being aware of their own value without the need of a recognition from the others.
At the end of this great and amusing hour in her company, Hayley Atwell left us with a small scoop about the new season.
Peggy is now ready to let Steve go (by the way the scene in the last episode is really moving and it's one of my favourites). She is ready for a new love. This is not a real scoop, actually. We learned from Captain America: The Winter Soldier that she has been married and has children and grandchildren. The real question is: who will be the lucky one? One Three Hill fans hope in her antagonist-ish Jack Thompson (Chad Michael Murray) whose presence in the new season has recently been confirmed along with D'Arcy (Edwin Jarvis) and Gjokaj (Daniel Sousa).

Q: Finding a specific class from any given module A general situation:

*

*I don't know what modules I'll be inspecting beforehand, I don't know what will be in them: classes, methods, etc.

*I do know what class I'm seeking, and what I need to do with it. e.g. I'll need to run a particular method, cls.register

*I need to find the most effective way to do this.

I haven't even gotten to specific code, or I'd post it. However I think I have some options:

*

*Just run everything in the module through try/except

*if/else seeking for the method I need

*Using inspect to find the exact match of classes in the module

*Using the meta class to add an attribute this_is_class_sought=True
1-3 seem too crude, 4 seems like too much effort.
My situation:
I trying to integrate Flask-Classy with an application creator/factory.
I have a bunch of view files, I don't know what will be in these files. I need to find all classes that subclass FlaskView, but not FlaskView itself, and then run then class registration function.
So, for example from dir(a_module) for randomly encountered module:
['FlaskView', 'AView', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', 'forms', 'models', 'redirect', 'render_template', 'request', 'url_for']
I need to determine that AView is there, and run the registration method. 3, above seems likely, but I haven't exactly determined how to differentiate AView, yet.
What is the best way to do this?
EDIT:
I must emphasize that the whole point is that I do not know what modules I'll be looking at, or what they will contain. I need to efficiently extract the information I need and act based on that information.
EDIT2:
__subclasses__() simplifies much for my purposes.

A: Sounds like you're trying to do something hacky, but... I'll help out anyhow. If option 4 is an option at all than I would recommend using a self-registering metaclass/baseclass instead.
Take a look at this answer: Generic Python metaclass to keep track of subclasses
copied for completeness
def sublass_registry():
    ''' Create a metaclass to register subclasses '''

    class SublassRegistryMeta(type):
        def __init__(cls, name, bases, classdict):
            if classdict.get('__metaclass__') is SublassRegistryMeta:
                SublassRegistryMeta.lineage = [cls] # put root class at head of a list
            else:
                # sublclasses won't have __metaclass__ explicitly set to this class
                # we know they're subclassees because this ctor is being called for them
                SublassRegistryMeta.lineage.append(cls) # add subclass to list
            type.__init__(cls, name, bases, classdict)

    return SublassRegistryMeta

def subclasses(cls):
    ''' Return a list containing base and subclasses '''

    try:
        if cls.__metaclass__.lineage[0] is cls: # only valid for a root class
            return cls.__metaclass__.lineage
    except AttributeError:
        pass
    return None

class Car(object): # root class
    __metaclass__ = sublass_registry()

class Audi(Car): # inherits __metaclass__
    pass

class Ford(Car): # inherits __metaclass__
    pass

class Audi2(Audi): # sub-subclass also inherits __metaclass__
    pass

print subclasses(Car)
# [<class '__main__.Car'>, <class '__main__.Audi'>, <class '__main__.Ford'>, <class '__main__.Audi2'>]
print subclasses(Audi)
# None

Alternatively, just looping through it with some issubclass and isinstance should do the trick. In general you won't need any try/except here, but for safety you could add some.

. (TMZ) Looks like no one is immune from thinking it is weird that Bobbi Kristina Brown is dating the guy she used to consider her "brother" -- because even their closest friends were shocked by the news ... TMZ has learned.
As TMZ first reported, Bobbi feels she's doing nothing wrong by dating Nick Gordon, the guy her mother Whitney Houston unofficially adopted 10 years ago.
According to our sources, Bobbi broke the news to her friends at a BBQ this week ... and no one believed it until the two kissed in front of everyone. We're told one friend felt the "relationship" was the result of each of them taking the death of Whitney too hard ... but they both brushed off that notion.

Sand Dams in Kenya
Clean water changes lives. Girls return to school. Women begin small businesses. Men are no longer too sick to work. Fields are watered and food supply becomes more reliable. Health returns and children grow up to be productive members of their community. The cycle of poverty is broken. Lives change.
"When water comes...everything changes." That's what our driver told us as we drove from town to town in Kenya. And we see the change every time a new well brings clean water.

Sand Dam
Seasonal streams (and the sand they carry) are trapped by dams, replenishing the water table and allowing for adjacent hand-dug wells. Almost completely led by community-supplied sweat and materials, and under the supervision of engineers, dams are strategically placed within those dry river-beds. The next time it rains, flood-waters are trapped.
With a sand dam, this trapped sand begins to hold millions of gallons of rainwater. Soon enough, sand reaches the top of the dam, allowing water to continue downstream – where it meets the next dam. The result? A regional water table is restored.
Agricultural Assistance
Climate smart farming training leads to food security, larger yields and a thriving community.
All sand dam and dug well programs in Southeastern Kenya include climate-smart agricultural training. Sand dams restore a water table robbed by climate change and create the opportunity for the addition of dug wells. Water is now available, but the community's livelihood depends on their ability to adjust to new farming techniques.
This support provides thousands of drought tolerant seeds and trees, also equipping farming with the necessary tools for new farming techniques. This allows farmers to do what they do best - grow food! And, it all starts with water.
Monitoring and Resolution
Water isn't a pump. Water is a service. And, it must be reliable.
The known benefits of water are ONLY true if water can be counted on, over time. We love celebrating when a project is complete and a community has access to clean, safe water. However, the ongoing service of water - making water reliable - is how we know our true impact.
The Water Project continues to monitor our water projects, and we provide continued support to make sure water service continues for communities.
Past water projects and the communities they serve are just as important to us as anything else we might be doing in the future.
To learn more about how you can help with ongoing monitoring, evaluation and resolution, read about our awesome monthly members.
This project is being implemented by our partner African Sand Dam Foundation, and includes the construction of a sand dam.
The group was formed in the year 9/11/2011. Muuo wa Metho Uvini means "Peace of the eyes". The place was first believed to be inhabited by buffaloes which would hide from the bushes thus looking at the residents from the bushes with scary eyes. It was funny since the buffaloes did not attack them. The group was formed after 68 households came together to start the group. The main reasons for forming the group were:
The group wanted to improve the environment through soil conservation. By coming together the group wanted to dig terraces that would conserve soil on their farms and dig tree holes that they would plant trees in the farms to prevent soil erosion.
The area had severe water shortage. Through coming together the group wished to have shallow wells along their main river channel.
The group wished to have welfare activities that would seek to improve their living standards. By coming together the group would have merry go round activities that would provide the group with income to cater for their basic needs. The area suffers from acute poverty.
Challenges That Are Faced In The Area
Water Shortage
The main challenge that the community in the area faces is water shortage. It takes five hours (5) per day for women to fetch water. The main sources of water are river Athi and Metho uvini Rivers. The distance to river Athi is about 10 kilometres. This is the main water source during the dry seasons of July to November. River Metho Uvini only has water during the rainy seasons. The river has continued to be eroded away and this has made the time that water is available in the river channel to reduce from 6 months to less than a month. Most of the community members have resulted to fetch water from river Athi that is 10 kilometres away. The quality of water is poor since the river is heavily polluted. This has led to high incidence of water related and water borne diseases in the area.
River Athi is also a dangerous point for fetching water. It is highly infested with crocodiles. A number of our livestock and children have lost their lives as they fetch water from this water point.
Due to the lack of water availability in the area the community suffers other challenges:
During the dry periods the farmers have to walk long distances with their livestock in order to get water. Livestock are the main economic assets for the community. The continued drought has continued to loose their livestock. This has made many members of the community to shift from farming to livestock keeping. The loss of livestock therefore translates to increased poverty in the area.
Increased environmental degradation. The community has tried on many occasions to have trees planted in their homesteads. Due to lack of water most of the trees planted have continued to dry up.
Women have continued to lag behind in development matters since the burden of fetching water remains on them. Most women spent time in fetching water for use in their homes. Due to the distance and time required for this activity most women have no time to take part in other basic activities.
The main type of crops that the community farms are
Maize, cowpeas, green grams, sorghum and pigeon peas.
The area depends on rain fed agriculture. In the last four years the area has not received rains and this has led to intense famine and severe food insecurity. Apart from rain shortage the other reason that have led to food insecurity are
Poor fertile soils. The area has degraded soils due to erosion. Due to severe soil erosion the crops have not had good harvest.
The community has continued to practise traditional planting methods that have led to decreased harvest. The reliance on maize as a staple crop and also as a cash crop has led to decreased harvest due to unreliable rains. The community also lacks knowledge on farming methods that can be practised in the area.
Environmental degradation. Soil erosion and the lack of trees have continued to be a main challenge in the area. Soil erosion has led to poor soil fertility whereas due to overstocking of the livestock they have also destroyed the vegetation cover.
Increased drought and famine. During the drought period most of the incomes area reduced. Currently the area is coming out of a severe drought period. Due to this most farmers do not have seeds to plant in their farms. The farmers have to get seeds from unscrupulous dealers and the seeds that they plant cannot do well in the area.
Lack of tools. The group is currently digging terraces in the area so as to conserve soil from being eroded from their farms. Due to poverty most of the members cannot afford tools that can dig well the terraces on their farms.
Pre harvest and post harvest losses: the crops are destroyed by pests before harvest. The group does not have knowledge on how to control and prevent pests from destroying the crops. After the crops are harvested they also lack post harvest preservation skills. The harvest is therefore destroyed by weevils. To prevent further losses from the weevils most farmers dispose off their produce at low prices thus returning to the viscous cycle of food insecurity and poverty.
Poor farming techniques and overstocking by the farmers has led to increased land degradation. Most of the areas are inhabited by livestock keepers who used to keep large amount of livestock as a source of livelihood. Decline in agricultural yields also contributed to massive destruction of the environment as farmers had to clear bushes to burn charcoal as a source of income. The average household size for the group is seven (7) this means more clearing of the vegetation so as to create room for more farming lands. All these practises were not controlled and the farmers lacked the skills and knowledge on how to plant or restore the degraded lands. The lack of water to plant trees also reduced the survival rate of the little number of trees that the farmers grew.
The area has severe shortage in indigenous tree seedlings that can be used and planted in the area. Most of the tree seedlings that the community plants are not able to be planted in the area and cannot withstand the drought in the area.
Despite the challenges that the community faces they are hopeful that through sand dams they will be able to create water security in the area that is the door way to reducing poverty in the area. The sand dams will improve the water table of the river channel thus creating a year round supply of water for the community. Apart from water insecurity the group hopes to restore the degraded lands. By just walking around the farms you notice how erosion has contributed to low farm yields. This will be through terrace digging and pasture establishment to create pastures for our animals and control soil erosion.
With the availability of water the community plans:
Increase their income levels. Through the planting of vegetable along the river banks the community and farmers will be able to plant horticultural cops that they will sell and be able to get income.
The farmers will also increase the number of tree that they plant. Water availability will boost the planting of different species of trees that can be used to food and income production.
The group also plans to improve on animal husbandry. The group will start a dairy goat project that will be used to improve the local breeds and also generate income for the farmers. Reducing the number of cattle that are kept by farmers will promote environmental conservation.
The group also seeks to create seed security through the establishment of a seed bank. This will enable the farmer to have access to quality and certified seeds types that can be able to withstand drought and harsh weather patterns in the area.
SAND DAM PROGRESS REPORT
The dam is located in Methovini in the district of Makueni County.
Work on this sand dam started by the community identifying their preferred construction site (which was confirmed by ASDF technical staff to be ideal for the construction of the sand dam) and putting in place the necessary land agreements with land owners adjacent to the site. In addition an implementation plan was put in place and a month before (June) the start date of construction the members of Muuo Wa Methovini had been collecting the local materials (stones and sand) to enable the construction of their sand dam within the shortest time possible in order to help meet their water access and availability improvement objective.
Excavation of the sand dam foundation to the basement rock started on the
July 11, 2013. In the same month the hardware materials (cement, steel and wire among others) were supplied to enable the community start construction. The foundation excavation took the community almost a week from when they started their actual sand dam construction.
By the end of four and half weeks (August 8th, 2013) the dam was built to completion and within the next 21 days the dam was cured and ready for rain water harvesting during the October – November , 2013 rains. The actual dam construction was done in 3 weeks.
The main challenge during construction was severe drought that affected food situation in the region. This affected performance and attendance by group members to the sand dam building process.
CURRENT PROJECT STATUS
The sand dam and shallow well projects are complete.
Though the sand dam has yet to grow to maturity it has managed to harvest and store rain water from the October – November 2013 rains, thus the community achieving their objective. The 407 households within the group are now benefitting from collecting water from the shallow well.
05/21/2020: COVID-19 Prevention Training Update at Muuowa Metho Uvini Community
Our teams are working on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic. Join us in our fight against the virus while maintaining access to clean, reliable water.
We are carrying out awareness and prevention trainings on the virus in every community we serve. Very often, our teams are the first (and only) to bring news and information of the virus to rural communities like Muuowa Metho Uvini, Kenya.
We trained community members on the symptoms, transmission routes, and prevention of COVID-19.
Due to public gathering concerns, we worked with trusted community leaders to gather a select group of community members who would then relay the information learned to the rest of their family and friends.
We covered essential hygiene lessons:
- Demonstrations on how to build a simple handwashing station
- Proper handwashing technique
- The importance of using soap and clean water for handwashing
- Cleaning and disinfecting commonly touched surfaces including at the water point.
We covered COVID-19-specific guidance in line with national and international standards:
- Information on the symptoms and transmission routes of COVID-19
- What social distancing is and how to practice it
- How to cough into an elbow
- Alternative ways to greet people without handshakes, fist bumps, etc.
- How to make and properly wear a facemask.
During training, we installed a new handwashing station with soap near the community's water point.
Due to the rampant spread of misinformation about COVID-19, we also dedicated time to a question and answer session to help debunk rumors about the disease and provide extra information where needed.
Water access, sanitation, and hygiene are at the crux of disease prevention. You can directly support our work on the frontlines of COVID-19 prevention in all of the communities we serve while maintaining their access to safe, clean, and reliable water.

Avoid working out heavily with your jewellery on.
Using a soft, lint free cloth is an effective way to keep sterling silver shiny and lustrous. A silver cleaner can also be used to clean sterling silver pieces. Ideally, store silver pieces in an airtight bag to help reduce tarnishing. Do not use tissue paper or paper towels to clean metal as they can cause scratching.
Enjoy wearing your Oya jewellery!
