Tecno W1 Review – Price and Specification.
Tecno is a good mobile phone everyone should have especially young ones. I love recommending good phones for people and one unique phone to use is techno.
Tecno W1 is a smartphone considered to be both an upgrade and downgrade of the Tecno W2 in certain regards, forget the non-chronological name. Below is the price, Specification and everything you need to know about this phone.
It interestingly comes with a newer Android version, but has smaller screen size.


Land Rover and luxury travel provider Abercrombie & Kent have teamed up to launch the stuff of dreams aptly called, "the most luxurious road trip on Earth", the once in a life time trip taking in 5 continents, eight countries and nine of the world's best hotels, all this from behind the wheels of a £148,900 Range Rover SVAutobiography, the most luxurious model in Range Rover's history.
The locations have been carefully selected to offer the very uppermost levels of luxury and provide guests with truly off-the-beaten-track experiences at locations only accessible thanks to the unrivalled capability of the Range Rover.
The one-of-a-kind Abercrombie & Kent itinerary has been developed to mark the launch of the Range Rover SVAutobiography – the ultimate variant of the British manufacturer's luxury model line.
Of course all this luxury travel and adventure comes at a pretty price! The cost of the trip starts at £100,000 per person based on two travellers, and is fully customisable according to guests' preferences. You can pop into one of Abercrombie & Kent's holiday boutiques in Harrods London, Abu Dhabi and Monaco or online.
Starting in Europe, the guests are introduced to the twisting mountain roads of Monaco, the coastal highway to Portofino, and the awe inspiring surroundings of the Italian lakes. In the first leg, customers will stay near the Lake Como and in the remote Dolomites region of the Alps and will participate in bespoke activities, such as a personalized fragrance making class and a glacier picnic, in the peaks of the Alps, where they will be transported by helicopter.
The second leg will see the guests heading for Marrakech, where they will visit the arid desert around Ouarzazate and will take a trip into the Atlas Mountains.
The final part of the trip starts with an overnight flight to Sydney. A night's stay at the Park Hyatt gives guests the opportunity to relax after they have experienced both a VIP bridge climb and behind-the-scenes access to the landmark Opera House. Tasmania awaits the following day and provides the opportunity for a stunning drive through the vast wilderness, taking in coastal heathland and forest, giving drivers the chance to put the SVAutobiography through its paces.
Why not, if you've got the pennies eh?
If you are looking to continue your adventure, Lookers has a choice of Range Rover for sale across the UK.

Receiving Bafta award my happiest moment ever: Simon Cowell
Simon Cowell has admitted that the moment of winning the Outstanding Contribution Award at the Baftas was 'the happiest feeling of his life'. The X Factor mogul and Britain's Got Talent star was given a standing ovation as he collected his gong from Ant and Dec. "I admire him," The Sun quoted Ant as saying. Dec added, "And I'm terrified of him. But the man's made ITV what it is today - still in business." "So many people have tried to crack America - this man has smashed it," Ant added. "This is a genuine honour. I wasn't expecting it because it's very grown-up here. I have the most talented people with me working on the shows. "This award is more deserving to them than it is to me. I appreciate your genius because you make me look good." He continued, "One of my happiest memories as a kid was when my dad came home with a TV set when I was five. "That was the best moment of my life, so to stand here getting an award for making TV shows - it's the happiest feeling in my life." Cowell also introduced the idea of a new show World's Got Talent, but how there won't be a judging panel. "We had a disaster attempting it once on Idol because we had 16 judges and everyone wanted to be me. The show would have to work without judges. "The idea that Spelbound or Diversity would represent Britain in a global competition excites me. It's like coming out of the Premiership and into the Champions League." Instead of a panel, Cowell wants BGT judges Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden to join him on a commentary panel. And he sees the show as a replacement for Eurovision after this year's flop. "If you think how rubbish the Eurovision acts have been over the years, I think they should make it as a talent show," he said.

Can my boss require me to work overtime?
On behalf of Fisher Taubenfeld LLP posted in Wage & Overtime on Monday, September 19, 2016.
While the days of 9-5 pretty much vanished with the explosion of the tech industry, most employees (below executive level) still expect to work about a 40 hour week. So what happens when your boss, or simply the demands of your job, requires that you put in more hours than usual to get the job done?
Alas, the answer is not straightforward. The Federal Labor Standards Act is the force at the federal level that dictates wage and hour laws. While it regulates items such as minimum wage, it mostly stays quiet about the number of hours in a day that an adult can be required to work. This means that, at least at the Federal level, your boss can legally mandate overtime.
At the state level, however, things are not quite so black and white. New York has, for example, a law that specifically exempts nurses from being required to work overtime except in the event of an emergency. New York State also mandates that even exempt employees (with a few exceptions, such as executives) be paid overtime when they are required to work beyond their contracted hours.
If you are unhappy with your required number of working hours, you may wish to start by speaking with your employer about your situation. That may be the quickest and least painful way to resolve your situation. If, however, you believe compensation to which you are legally entitled has been withheld, you may wish to consult an attorney. He or she may be able to ensure that you are justly compensated.

Как побороть это и получить StorageFile указанного файла?

A: На платформах наподобие Windows 8 вы не можете получить данные из произвольного места просто так. Каждое приложение находится в «песочнице» — иначе любая загруженная из аппстора игрушка могла бы прочитать все данные данного пользователя.
По умолчанию, программа имеет доступ каталогу, где она инсталлирована, к app data — специальному месту, где приложение может хранить свои данные и настройки (2 шт.: локальный и перемещаемый), и временному каталогу.
Также, программа может получить доступ к файлу а каталоге загрузок или на сменном носителе через FileOpenPicker или FolderPicker — если пользователь выберет для вас этот файл.
Вы можете также получить доступ к другим местам (Documents, Music, Pictures, ...), но для этого вам придётся отконфигурировать манифест.
Вот ещё статья по теме: Windows 8: The right way to Read & Write Files in WinRT.

Если ваш файл — музыка, она должна находиться в KnownFolders.MusicLibrary, пропишите желаемый доступ в манифесте, и открывайте через FileOpenPicker.

In a world where just about EVERYTHING is social-media worthy, from what you had for breakfast (buttered toast, thank you very much) to your bare bum (thanks, Kim Kardashian), it would only make sense that a REALLY big moment ― such as oh, say, the birth of your second child — would be a shoo-in.
…Unlessssss you just so happen to be Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. Though the world is abuzz with the news that the couple welcomed baby number two earlier today (and that Taylor Swift was on hand to visit!), the usually active social networking accounts of both parents remains inconspicuously quiet.
Well, the answer is probably a lot more simple than you might imagine: They want privacy for their children. As E! reported, Blake actually explained her reasoning for keeping both babes under wraps (the couple employed similar tactics following the birth of their first child, James ― they actually didn't announce her birth until three weeks after she was born!) to Marie Claire UK last summer.
"My husband and I chose a profession and a side effect of that is your personal life is public. Our child (now children) hasn't had the opportunity to choose whether or not she wants her personal life to be public or not. So in order to give her as much normality as possible, we want to give her a childhood like we had." It's the same reason the couple chooses to reside in NY over LA. "We can't really throw her into the lion's den that is LA, not that we really want to," she said then.
Fair enough! It's a stance both parents have, by and large, stuck to. Sans the occasional magazine quote about motherhood from Blake or a hilarious dad tweet from Ryan, James as a person (a mini one, but still) remains a bit of a mystery.
So too, did Blake's latest pregnancy. Reserving comment on her much buzzed about growing belly until the last possible second, Blake finally admitted just two months ago what everyone else (daughter James first and foremost) had already deduced: She was pregnant.
Considering that the couple wants to have a large brood someday, it's a coy little dance we've no doubt she'll be repeating in years to come.
While details of this latest birth (namely the baby's name and gender) will undoubtedly trickle down to us eventually, for now, it's their little secret (and Taylor Swift's too), and we've got a feeling they wouldn't have it any other way.
Do you think it's smart for famous parents like Blake and Ryan to keep their kids out of the public eye? Tell us @BritandCo.

Robin Walker's website
Robin Walker was born in York in 1953 and studied at Durham University with David Lumsdaine. Following Durham, he did three years of postgraduate research at Keble College, Oxford interspersed with a short period at the Collège Franco-Brittanique in the University of Paris; he continued his studies at the Royal College of Music, before taking up a full-time appointment at the University of Manchester in 1980. Here he founded and co-ordinated the New Music/Old Music concert series, directed the Electronic Music Studio and conducted numerous student and professional performances.
In 1981 his Dance/Still for chamber ensemble brought his first Radio 3 broadcast; this piece showed an affinity with late Stravinsky in its balance of opposed states of motion. At the same time, however, Walker was casting the stylistic net wide, producing, amongst other things, a haunting re-composition of the Kink's Waterloo Sunset and the violent ritualised-minimalist meditation of Seven Last Words for electric guitar and percussion. In the summer of 1983 he travelled to Bangalore to learn the art of drumming in traditional South Indian dance. Among creative spin-offs of this visit were the solo viola piece Age/a gita, performed by Yuko Inoue at the Purcell Room.
Since resigning his lectureship in 1987, Robin Walker has lived, on the edge of the Saddleworth moors, patiently exploring new directions in a small number of carefully crafted works. Of these The Stone Maker, a 30-minute symphonic poem performed and broadcast in 1996 by the BBC Philharmonic under Elgar Howarth, is undoubtedly the most ambitious, engaging with the kind of large-scale symphonic momentum characteristic of Sibelius, Tippett and Robert Simpson, yet without denying Walker's previous interests in the sound-worlds of Boulez and Birtwistle. More traditional in their harmonies and textures are the string orchestra piece Hold Hands Across the Years, premièred in March 1998 by the English Chamber Orchestra, and the chamber opera The Bells of Blue Island.
Robin Walker has also been drawn to projects outside the classical mainstream, including pieces for the Grimethorpe Colliery Band, various ballet and theatre productions, and a school opera based on the Odysseus legend. His music has been heard at various Festivals in this country and abroad. Future plans include a three-act opera along the Wagnerian lines: The Return of Odysseus

So unique_domains must be Trueish.
But your line
unique_domains = cursor.fetchall()

Is not inside the block for the database with condition:
with psycopg2.connect("dbname=certwatch user=guest host=crt.sh".format(DB_NAME, DB_USER, DB_HOST)) as conn:

Also you already fetched (and discarded after printing) the records in
for certificate in cursor.fetchall():

So you can't fetch them again unless you .execute the query again. A better idea would be to store the data in the first fetch.

OECD Home TaxBase erosion and profit shiftingOnsite-visit in Kiev to launch induction programme assisting Ukraine in the implementation of the new international tax standards
Onsite-visit in Kiev to launch induction programme assisting Ukraine in the implementation of the new international tax standards
On 27 September 2017, an OECD delegation met in Kiev the Ukrainian Minister of Finance Oleksandr Danyliuk to discuss the progress of the country in implementing the new international standards to combat tax avoidance and tax evasion.
Ukraine is an active member of the Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) and the Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes (the Global Forum). The visit launched a joint induction programme to assist Ukraine in the implementation of the new international standards, namely the BEPS package with a focus on Country-by-Country Reporting and the other BEPS minimum standards, and the standards for exchange of information on request and for the automatic exchange of financial account information (the "Common Reporting Standard") on which Global Forum members are working together to monitor and review implementation. The monitoring and review process is intended to ensure the effective and timely delivery of commitments made, the confidentiality of information exchanged and to identify areas where support is needed.
Onsite-visit
Ukraine has developed a detailed Roadmap for the implementation of the BEPS minimum standards and plans to join the Multilateral Instrument (MLI) before the end of the year in order to implement the tax-treaty related minimum standards of the BEPS package. Furthermore, Ukraine intends to start the automatic exchange of information on financial accounts of non-residents under the CRS as of 2020.
As part of the visit, a workshop on the implementation of the new international tax standards was delivered on 28 September 2017 to senior officials from the Ministry of Finance and the Ukrainian tax administration.
Media queries should be directed to Pascal Saint-Amans (+33 1 45 24 91 08), Director of the OECD Centre for Tax Policy and Administration (CTPA) or the CTPA Communications Office.

Getting out in the garden to clean up is a chore not usually met with excitement, but after the long, bitterly cold winter just past, it is a pleasure. Last fall brought a steep drop in temperature and big snow so fast I didn't have a chance to dig the parsnips out of the vegetable bed so they were left, along with the turnips. They were left in the garden long after the rest of the vegetables had been harvested because the cold sweetens them. A biennial like others in the Apiaceae family, parsley and carrot, it's not surprising parsnips can overwinter in our Zone 5a climate. The turnips had been dug up by an animal and chewed, but the parsnip tops had some green and showed a bit of new growth: an encouraging sign. I dug up three, cleaned them up and brought them in to add to the dinner menu.
One of the three appeared to have suffered freeze and rot damage in the core, but the other two were good. These were cut into chunks and tossed in a blend of olive oils and maple syrup, then roasted in a 400F oven for 25 minutes. Result: sweet, delicious parsnips.
Of all the root vegetables, I love parsnips best, and as with parsley & carrot, it offers many health benefits[1. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21114468] including being a rich source of potassium, fibre, vitamin C, and folate among other nutrients. It's easy to grow although vulnerable to afflictions such as the carrot fly larvae, parsnip canker, and root rot. Much of this can be avoided by taking care when planting: (1) seeding in loose soil that has warmed up (12C-15C or 55F-60F); (2) providing them with companion plants such as radish, garlic or onion; and (3) being patient about awaiting sprouts. With carrots and parsnips I've learned germination will take place faster in warmer soil so might as well wait the extra time rather than have seedlings rot or struggle. Make some space in your garden for parsnips this spring and enjoy them in late fall and first harvest next year.
One of sweetest root vegetables roasted to caramelize the natural sugars.
Optional: I used a blend of extra-virgin olive oils (2 parts EVOO : 1 part harissa infused EVOO) to add a bit of punch. This could also be achieved with a light dash of cayenne when coating, before roasting.

Q: Comparing chars does not work I've got 12, 6 in the first word, 6 in the second.
Why this is not working:
if
    (aChar1 == aChar7)
    (aChar2 == aChar8){
        //do something
    }

Meaning, if aChar1 is equal to aChar7 and aChar2 is Equal to aChar8 do something, it gives me errors...

A: It shouldn't even compile...the correct syntax is
if ((aChar1 == aChar7) && (aChar2 == aChar8)) {
    //do something
}

MY 2017 FILM FEAST: Sept-Dec (Starring: My Top 10 of the Year!)
January 17, 2018 January 17, 2018 by Haylee
In 2016, I made a note of every film we'd watched throughout the year and shared them in a post at the end of December. It seemed to be fairly well received and it also helped us review a year through a different medium.
So I decided to do it again. Except this time, due to the entire year being quite a gargantuan task, I intended to compile a post quarterly. And then we got to April…then the end of April…and I realised I'd missed my fraction window!
So instead, here's the FINAL installment of a trilogy – because every good film comes in threes, right?! (Please don't start giving me examples of when this hasn't worked – there are far too many!)
However, it's later than last year's counterpart (but then I was MIA for a while) and we're already into the third week of 2018. But it's the beginning of award season and a good time to finish the line-up and tell you what MY TOP 10 FILMS of 2017 were!
If you'd like to see what we were watching earlier in the year, you can check them out HEREand HERE
September started strong with a trip to IMAX to view, arguably, one of the most intense moves I've ever watched. Whether it was the subject matter, the fact it was historical fact, the sheer noise from the speakers or the constant, ticking background score from Hans Zimmer (all kinds of awesome), Dunkirk was a visual, traumatic masterpiece told via three story lines that marry together and create something that left me feeling both numb, yet immensely proud of the courage of our WW2 veterans. A must-see!
The Big Sick was a beautiful, alternative love story, telling the real-life tale of how comedian Kumail Nanjiani met his wife, writer and producer Emily V Gorden. Being a fan of both celebrities helped (it stars the former, playing himself) but is worth a watch even if you've never heard of them. As they often say, true life is stranger than fiction.
We all know by now I'm a huge Marvel fan but Wonder Woman was my first (first makes it sounds like I own multiple…) superhero costume. So I've always held a place in my heart for Diana and willed this to be good. I was not disappointed. Although it has not made my top 10 list, it could have done quite easily. Gal Gadot in the title role really held her own and rightly inspired little (and large) girls the world over. It had action, humour, great special effects and characters you liked. Very un-DC, much more Marvel!
The Book of Henry looked gorgeous from the trailer and full of whimsical fantasy, with an ironic, bittersweet twist. Telling the story of child-genius Henry, a boy who discovers he has an incurable brain tumour, it follows him as he sets about leaving instructions for his mother (Naomi Watts) and younger brother (Jacob Tremblay) on how to help his next door neighbour and friend. Although it was enjoyable, it didn't quite deliver as well as I'd hoped, but was still an interesting concept.
Finally, the month ended with snozzcumbers and bloodbottlers as we journeyed into the magical world of Roald Dahl with the BFG. I believe this had bad reviews when released in 2016 but I loved it. It's always been one of my favourite Dahl books (fuelled by the fact it was written for his granddaughter, Sophie) and I felt it was a fitting adaptation, which had me sobbing into my hankersniffling!
I don't know what we were doing in October but it wasn't watching films! (Mindhunter and Handmaid's Tale were obviously far more enticing)
However, shortly before the world witnessed Kevin Spacey's universe fall apart for taking advantage of young men he was in Baby Driver…erm…kind of doing similar: exploiting the skills and wielding his power over getaway driver, Baby (Ansel Elgort), who tries to leave behind the life of crime he's been coerced into by Doc (Spacey). With a killer soundtrack and obligatory car chases, it's very Edgar Wright and it's very, very good! Shame it's tarnished by the heinous deeds of one of the cast. Don't feel quite right promoting it in the circumstances…*
Our other offering for October had to have a horror angle as we headed towards Halloween. The Autopsy of Jane Doe starts out as a basic, crime mystery as we try to decipher the cause of death of a young woman, through the eyes of a local mortician. Things swiftly turn sinister as many a twist unveils itself, ticking all of my supernatural boxes and actually being creepy and scary! Seemingly rare in horror these days. Shot almost entirely in a single room, this nicely ramps up the tension to the (albeit slightly predictable) conclusion.
The beginning of November brought two films with weather-related titles: The Mist and Wind River. I was convinced I'd seen the former (it's been around a while), but then we watched it and it wasn't at all what I was expecting. However, the black and white cinematography added to the eerie ambience and the ending is…well, watch it and get back to me about how it makes you feel.
Wind River saw Scarlett Witch and Hawkeye (Olsen and Renner) playing FBI agent and expert tracker, trying to solve the murder of a teenager from the Native American community, within a reservation. Cold, bleak and methodical, it was a solid crime drama.
Logan Lucky was a surprising hit – a comedy drama heist, which was far more fun than it should have been. But then with a cast of Daniel Craig, Adam Driver (huge fan) and Channing Tatum, there were some high hopes, that thankfully played out.
We love zombie yarns and have been wanting to see Train to Busan for some time. Yet it's rare these days that zombie films have anything new to offer, but the element of being trapped on a moving train certainly added to the tension and is definitely recommended if you like the genre.
Finally, the end of November saw me head off to see a literal masterpiece. Loving Vincent told the tragic tale of famous artist, Vincent Van Gogh. Taking place a year after his death, it tries to piece together his final moments and decide whether it was suicide (as is widely believed) or murder.
An interesting story in itself, what made this film unique was the animation. Created from hundreds of full sized oil paintings in the style of Van Gogh, the actors were motion-captured and painted into the backgrounds. Truly beautiful to watch.
Oh Kingsman…I loved you and your wise-cracking rough boy Taron Egerton in the first installment. But Golden Circle just didn't deliver. Despite an all-star cast, the story line seemed messy and waay over the top, even in the world of fictional secret agents.
War for the Planet of the Apes was a fitting end to the trilogy and once again had me crying at the state of the human race and what we do to animals. An interesting twist for how the virus plays out and Woody 'I seem to be in everything these days' Harrelson slinging his ego around in arrogant perfection is always good to watch.
A re-watch of Force Awakens was slotted in before we headed out to see The Last Jedi. There's been a lot of criticism of this latest Star Wars offering but I enjoyed it. Not as much as Force Awakens – the back and forth between locations seemed a little clunky and I thought it was a tad too long. To me, it was very much Empire Strikes Back. But then many cite that as the best of the series, so what do I know?! (Except that I reaaally like Adam Driver. Did I mention that?)
Picture the scene: Christmas Eve, all preparations done, cosy blankets, a few mince pies and time to relax with a festive film. So Sam chooses to watch IT…
It wasn't scary in the slightest, even though I'm not a fan of clowns. In fact, it's just Stand By Me with a supernatural twist. Okay, but nothing special in my opinion.
Hitman's Bodyguard was fun, at the very least for being able to hear Samuel L. Jackson say 'mother&*ck4r' repeatedly. Nobody sounds quite as good as him when they're throwing out the expletives! But explosive action and wise-cracks from Ryan Reynolds also carried this along and added to the enjoyment.
And finally, to end the year, Sam picked up a 4K blu-ray in the sales of Unforgiven (he loves cowboy films). We might have this film on every other medium from the last ten years but I've never seen it. A slow burner, it ticked all the boxes for a Western / Drama / Eastwood classic.
So that's it – 56 films in 2017. But which would make my Top Ten?
It was a tough choice and I had to extend it to ten (2016 had a Top 5), as I enjoyed so many this year. So here, in chronological order, my favourites have been:
I'd love to hear your thoughts on any you've seen / want to watch and should you have any stellar recommendations for us in 2018, I'm all ears!

Great selection Haylee. I especially loved Get out, so clever and original. The Big Sick was also excellent, as were Train to Busan and Baby Driver. Lots of others I've not caught yet. I have Split lined up for the weekend though. We rarely go to the cinema, but did venture out for Blade Runner 2046. Damn glad we did, was amazing on the big screen and a fine sequel.
Correction, Blade Runner 2049 🙂
Ah, we've not bothered with that. But then I hated the original (ssshh, I know everyone else seems to think it's amazing!)
Split was so good though – subject matter I really like and James McAvoy was excellent.
Sue Ranscht says:
I didn't go out to see many movies last year — I usually wait for the DVDs — but I have a list of Want to See movies, and strangely, none of your Top 10 are on it. I've been debating watching Dunkirk, but from what you've said, I probably won't. (Did you see Saving Private Ryan? It's an excellent film, but so wearing, I'll never watch it again even though I own it. I suspect Dunkirk would be like that.)
You didn't mention The Arrival (NOT the 1996 Charlie Sheen movie.) Jeremy Renner and Amy Adams as scientist and a linguist who are tasked with figuring out an Alien language. I'd love to know what you think of it.
We LOVE Private Ryan and we're also huge fans of Band of Brothers (the TV series). I understand what you mean about it being a tough watch but I'd still recommend Dunkirk at least once – to a certain extent I feel it should be compulsory viewing for younger generations as it doesn't glorify anything.
We saw Arrival in 2016 – perhaps it came out later in the US? We really enjoyed it though – the concept of the twist and how it all came together but also just how fascinating it was to piece together the communication aspect.
How could you not love IT?
Meh… it was good but I was expecting it to be really horrible and it was a bit lame (from a scare point of view). From a coming-of-age 'I'm really just Stand by Me with a clown', then yeah, it was decent!
Imagine if this had happened lol https://youtu.be/yi9pqh1tvAI
Haha, an alternative plot where the clown is foiled at every attempt would have probably scored more points with me!

Ward and constituency breakdown of European referendum results
February 6, 2017 - 8:54 am
Both detailed ward-by-ward and constituency level results for the June 2016 European referendum are now available, using a mix of actual data and careful modelling to fill in the gaps.
The BBC has been investigating the details of the European referendum election results:
Since the referendum the BBC has been trying to get the most detailed, localised voting data we could from each of the counting areas. This was a major data collection exercise carried out by my colleague George Greenwood.
We managed to obtain voting figures broken down into smaller geographical units for 178 of the 399 referendum counting areas (380 councils in England, Wales and Scotland, with a separate tally in Gibraltar, while in Northern Ireland results were issued for the 18 constituencies).
This varied between data for individual local government wards, wards grouped into clusters, and constituency level data. In a few cases the results supplied were even more localised than ward level. Overall the extra data covers a wide range of different areas and kinds of councils across the UK.
Electoral returning officers are not covered by the Freedom of Information Act, so releasing the information was up to the discretion of councils. While some were very willing, in other cases it required a lot of persistence and persuasion.
Some councils could not supply any detailed data because they mixed all ballot boxes prior to counting; some did possess more local figures but simply refused to disclose them to us. Others did provide data, but the combinations in which ballot boxes were mixed before counting were too complex to fit ward boundaries neatly.
The conclusion from this detailed analysis?
The data confirms previous indications that local results were strongly associated with the educational attainment of voters – populations with lower qualifications were significantly more likely to vote Leave. (The data for this analysis comes from one in nine wards)
The level of education had a higher correlation with the voting pattern than any other major demographic measure from the census
The age of voters was also important, with older electorates more likely to choose Leave
Ethnicity was crucial in some places, with ethnic minority areas generally more likely to back Remain. However this varied, and in parts of London some Asian populations were more likely to support Leave
The combination of education, age and ethnicity accounts for the large majority of the variation in votes between different places
Across the country and in many council districts we can point out stark contrasts between localities which most favoured Leave or Remain
There was a broad pattern in several urban areas of deprived, predominantly white, housing estates towards the urban periphery voting Leave, while inner cities with high numbers of ethnic minorities and/or students voted Remain
You can read the BBC's full analysis here. As for why this sort of analysis matters in particular for the Liberal Democrats, see the pamphlet I wrote with David Howarth.

Chris Hanretty's constituency-level estimated results for the European referendum are also available here. This is his third version of the results, taken from "Areal interpolation and the UK's referendum on EU membership" by Chris Hanretty, Journal Of Elections, Public Opinion And Parties, http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/17457289.2017.1287081

Let others know about this post:
4 responses to "Ward and constituency breakdown of European referendum results"
How helpful or otherwise were Scottish councils in providing information?
Total rubbish how can one ascertain the educational status simply by the area someone lives in, lots of assumptions very little in the way of facts or corroborating evidence, much like the lib dems manifesto
Mark Pack says:
Neil – the census provides this data, down to groups of households. (Not individual households, to protect people's privacy.) Hence it's possible to do quite detailed calculations about how, for example, the Remain/Leave vote varied depending on the overall levels of education in an area.
Here's an example of the sort of data the census provides: http://www.nomisweb.co.uk/census/2011/all_tables?release=4.5b
Peter Reisdorf says:
I've seen the ward-level results for the referendum before, but there's a problem with them for the area I live, Wirral. They're incorrect. They have the wrong figures for some of the wards, basically they're mixed them up. Shortly after the referendum a local paper published figures that actually made sense bearing in mind the demographics of the areas in question. I don't know how the BBC managed to mess it up, perhaps they were dealing with too many figures, but they're not the right ones. Fortunately I've got a copy of the correct figures that the newspaper published.

Hello, and welcome to my blog. My name is Danielle Delgado, and I created enjoy exploring today's societal trends with the enthusiasm and passion of a journalist! But I wasn't always interested in communications. My passion for social media and communications grew throughout my college years, culminating in a senior project surrounding the influence of the media on our lives. I attended a press-junket and was blown away by the amazing work that goes into such events: I was hooked! Opportunities abounded: I learned animation, audio, video editing, data analysis for social media accounts, assemble press kit proposals and plan events within the Greek community. I even got to work with L.M.G. as a social media consultant, specifically working with various high profiled clientele, such as Zoë Saldana and Marco Perego. After leaving Long Beach with a degree in journalism and communication studies, I struggled to find a place for myself within entertainment media, so I created my own platform: Life, Love, and Pop- Culture. I hope to challenge my career, all while keeping you up to date with the latest trends in the entertainment industry.	View all posts by lifeloveandpopculture

Alison's musical <3333 And just Alison's everything tbh.
I know what you mean about the difference between reading something great and having it ignite your love for reading and reading stuff that might be good or is just mediocre but doesn't make you want to READ ALL THE BOOKS immediately. I think before blogging/writing about books, I was much more of a read soemthing great all the time kind of person, IDK.
And yeah I agree giving books away is hard, so hard, I need another major culling too.
and aw POI. I actually finally put it together how brilliant/smart the show's use of the library is! Why am I so slow.
I did not see the library thing coming at all, but now that I know I bet there were loads of clues. I love when shows are smart but it does make me wonder why I didn't get it right off - never satisfied.
And I think I'm the same. Before blogging I would always be happy to read things I was looking forward to in a big rush but now I have so much I want to investigate that I get sidetracked and but off stuff I hope is going to be amazing.
Orphan BLACK. Orphan BLACK. I have been enjoying it so much as of yet, although I'd enjoy it more if the clones' stories weren't all quite so separate from each other. I hope they can come back together soon.
Note: I love throwing away books. It makes space! Wonderful shelf space! Maybe it's one of those things that gets easier and pleasanter the more often you do it?
Glad you liked the Cashore books so much. The other books I felt that way about in the last few years were the Megan Whalen Turner Thief books and the Kage Baker books. Oh, and that one we read by Alan Deniro, Total Oblivion. I think of that world a lot.

Serial entrepreneur Amol Sarva has cofounded several startups, including Virgin Mobile USA, Peek, Halo Neuroscience, Knotable, and Knotel. He has been named multiple times to the "Silicon Alley 100" list of top New York entrepreneurs. What draws him to such diverse ventures, and what makes him successful?
You went to Stuyvesant, a famous high school in New York City. How did that shape your experience?
This was a place where people worked very hard, very competitively, and aimed for just absolute perfection. In some ways, it's a very unrealistic way to try to live your life, but I found out only after I left there that the world doesn't work like that.
It's a very sort of narrow-minded definition of achievement. The rest of the world isn't like that. In fact, these days, the engineers and the doctors are not the highest aspirations. I think the value system, probably including in India, has moved towards certain more creative scales.
What prompted you to study neuroscience for a PhD after an undergrad in economics?
Well, my undergrad was in philosophy and economics. When I was finishing, I found out that I had been accepted to a PhD program at Stanford also in philosophy. As I started studying, the area that I was most interested in was how the mind works, and the theory of the mind, cognitive science. I ended up specializing in that area.
In reading your long list of achievements, it seems almost like there's nothing that you haven't touched or done. What feeds that hunger?
I don't think I'm interested in anything that you are not interested in. Maybe the thing that's a little bit strange is that I have done some work in each of these areas. Each thing I worked on, I tried to produce some kind of interesting output from—some little artifact, some little memento that I lived.
Is that part of just how work is in the 21st century?— so interdisciplinary, if you will. Your work does seem to touch a diverse variety of topics and subjects.
Yeah. I think there are some people who are more like me, and some who are more specialists. The philosopher Isaiah Berlin had this really simple distinction between the fox and the hedgehog. The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing. When you look around the world at the people you know, you can instantly can start categorizing. 'This person's head is down, only noticing one thing. They don't even stop to eat, must be a hedgehog. Then over here, there's this fox, who's sort of taking little nibbles of all these different little projects.' I know I'm definitely a fox.
How do you decide then which projects to back? Is it essentially anything that sustains your interest?
Instead of trying to judge it beforehand, I have a simple rule to figure out what I should try: if it sounds interesting, and I can make some progress in the small amount of time that I invest, then I will invest more time. As long as something stays interesting and I keep making progress, I try to follow through.
What is the lesson you have learned from your experiences of working with these companies and starting them up, and all these diverse projects?
I've learned so much. You can make some of your weaknesses into really useful qualities. This fox-hedgehog thing, for example. I used to misunderstand myself as being easily distracted and as being tempted to procrastinate or waste time. At some point, I realized that to be easily distracted just means to be really curious. To procrastinate means to want to do some work that just isn't the number one thing on your list.
What advice would you give to South Asian kids who want to follow your path?
I don't know. Parents have to stop asking their kids about medical school.

Ernst Maximilian Posner (*  9. August 1892 in Berlin; † 18. April 1980 in Wiesbaden) war ein preußischer Staatsarchivar und Professor für Geschichte und Archivwesen an der American University in Washington.

Leben und Wirken
Posner wuchs als Sohn von Carl Posner, Professor für Medizin, in Berlin auf. Nach der bestandenen Reifeprüfung am Friedrich-Wilhelm-Gymnasium studierte er von 1910 bis 1914 zunächst Staatswissenschaften, dann Geschichte und Historische Hilfswissenschaften in Berlin, Bonn und Straßburg. Er wurde 1920 in Berlin zum Dr. phil. promoviert und fand seine erste Anstellung als Volontär beim preußischen Geheimen Staatsarchiv (heute: GStA PK). 1921 legte er die Archivarsprüfung ab und wurde zum Archivassistenten ernannt, 1922 zum Staatsarchivrat. Während seiner Zeit am Geheimen Staatsarchiv bearbeitete er unter anderem mehrere Bände der Acta Borussica zur Behördenorganisation.

Aufgrund seiner jüdischen Herkunft wurde Posner im November 1935 zwangspensioniert, Anfang 1936 machte er sich Hoffnungen auf eine Anstellung in Illinois, da an der Universität Archivwissenschaften gelehrt werden sollten und Theodore C. Pease, Professor für Geschichte (1926–48) and Head of the Department of History (1942–48), ihn aufgefordert hatte, ihm seine Bewerbung zuzuschicken. 1938 wurde Posner in das KZ Sachsenhausen eingewiesen. Nach seiner Freilassung wanderte er 1939 über Schweden in die USA aus. Dort erhielt er einen Lehrauftrag und später eine ordentliche Professur an der American University in Washington D.C. Darüber hinaus war er maßgeblich beteiligt am Aufbau des US-amerikanischen Nationalarchivs, leitete von 1942 bis 1961 dort die Archivkurse und begründete 1954 das Institut für Records Management. Von 1955 bis 1956 war er Präsident des amerikanischen Berufsverbands der Archivare, der Society of American Archivists. 1961 wurde er in den Ruhestand verabschiedet. 1972 ging er zurück nach Europa und ließ sich zunächst in der Schweiz nieder, später in Wiesbaden, wo er 1980 starb.

Ehrungen
 Der Neubau des Bundesarchivs in Berlin-Lichterfelde trägt den Namen Ernst-Posner-Bau.
 Der Berufsverband der Archivare in den USA verleiht seit 1983 den Ernst-Posner-Preis.

Heat Transfer Petro-Canada
Switching to a high-purity compressor oil has allowed a cold storage company to reduce operating costs while optimizing compressor efficiency.
Claus Sorensen has 13 facilities in Denmark, comprising more than 23 million ft3.
Maintaining a cold storage facility is a complex task. The compressors used in the cooling systems are critical to the success of the operation and must be maintained consistently at peak efficiency. At the same time, operating costs must be kept in line.
This combination is even more challenging when the operation is as large as Claus Sorensen A/S, the biggest refrigerated and cold storage group in Denmark. The company has 13 facilities located from Skagen in the north to Padborg in the south, totaling more than 23 million ft3 (672,000 m3). Claus Sorensen has more than 75 years of experience in freezing and storing food products, including seafood, meat, bread, ice cream, fruits and vegetables. The group also operates high-capacity ice factories in major Danish fishing ports and is the world's biggest supplier of clear ice to the fishing industry.
"Our freezing plants make rigorous demands on the compressor oil we use," explains Michael Glering, operation manager at Claus Sorensen's plant in Vejle. "We operate to temperatures as low as -40oC [-40oF]."
Michael Glering, operation manager at Claus Sorensen's Vejle plant, is pleased with the new compressor fluid from Petro-Canada Lubricants.
Testing a New Fluid
A few years ago, Claus Sorensen bought several new Grasso refrigerating compressors for the Vejle plant. A drum of Petro-Canada's Reflo A ammonia refrigeration compressor oil was supplied with the compressors.
"The oil is formulated with 99.9 percent pure base oils and is produced using a patented high-temperature purity process," says Nickolas Joujou, category manager, specialty fluids, for Petro-Canada Lubricants in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. "Unlike many traditional refrigeration oils, Reflo A is designed to be less volatile at high temperatures and less soluble with ammonia. As a result, the oil can significantly lower oil carry-over and reduce oil consumption."
After consulting with Petro-Canada's Danish distributor, Petro-Chem A/S, Claus Sorensen agreed to test the new compressor oil in one of its plants. "We decided to take the plunge, and it has been a big success," says Glering. "We've experienced no major problems after changing fluids."
Instead, since switching to the new compressor oil, Claus Sorensen has experienced a considerable reduction in oil consumption.
"With Reflo A, we've reduced our oil consumption by 25 to 30 percent per year in a large, two-stage compressor. When you consider the 27 Sabroe and Grasso piston compressors we have here in Vejle, and the larger number of compressors we run nationally, the cost savings can really add up," Glering says. PCE

Doing 9999 damage was never so easy!
A smooth, uplifting animation for buffs.
This week I've been working on combat feedback - basically how to tell the player what's happening in a combat encounter. There's currently four types of feedback: info, damage, buff and debuff. I'll be adding more for critical hits and critical misses as well. I hope the text is clear enough, hard to capture fonts in high resolution with gifs.


America's favorite pastime is evolving everyday on an off the field.The sport of baseball has a strong connection with modern technology now more than ever. From on-screen replays during the game to software used for analyzing player stats, technology in baseball is a driving force behind the home runs.
Unified's leading telecommunications partner, Mitel, has partnered with the Major League Baseball corporation this year. Their partnership is to improve the overall communications technology systems throughout all 30 MLB parks throughout the United States. Mitel's communications systems provide call recording and monitoring services for all communications across the MLB platforms. These systems implement compliance measures for MLB regulations and rules. For the brand, this establishes an approach to managing their communications from team to team.
This integrated system will combine 30 individual programs into one common management system including platforms for bullpen, press box communications, video review rooms, and dugouts.
The growth of the fan experience is part of the initiative that the MLB wants to see through expansion with this technology. "As growing requirements for greater fan interaction and more integrated communications and collaboration capabilities become critical to the success of sports leagues, … we look forward to unifying the organization's multiple environments and helping make baseball an even more enjoyable experience," said Jimmy Serrano, Mitel's director of sports marketing.
Many of our own team members at Unified have their own connection to baseball as well. From little league to major league, the Unified Team has been involved in the all-American sport. Team members Jeff Welton, Michael Gabbart (seen above being interviewed at a recent Louisville Bats game), and Scott Diamond all played collegiate baseball at Georgetown College and Jason Becker at Morehead State University. Matt Shindlebower, part of our Security and Structured Cabling Sales Support team, played junior college baseball at Southeastern Illinois and Division 1 at Arkansas Pine Bluff.
Reaching great heights within the sport, John Marshall played baseball at the University of Kentucky then moved on to play Minor League ball for the Philadelphia Phillies and Texas Rangers. His two sons followed his lead and now play for UK as well.
Kevin Hester, our Louisville Technician, played baseball at Georgia and IUS, and continues to play today for the Star's, a men's amateur wood bat league. To learn more about Unified's partnership with Mitel, click here.


The four-week countdown to the first of this spring's season of donorflex Regional User Group roadshows is about to start – and four of our venues have already reached or passed last year's attendance figures.
What's more, the 'house full' notice has gone up at the North-west gathering, with another close to the same status. So, if you still intend to book, hurry.
We're also approaching the point where we confirm the agenda for each venue and start preparing material. That work starts next week.
We've already inked in the important topics of Consent & Preferences, and future donorflex development, for two of the four sessions.
We've already been asked to cover some specific topics in the other two workshop sessions. But you're helping to shape the rest.
We've asked delegates to let us know, region by region, what you want to see on the agenda at each RUG. We've been impressed by the response, if not completely surprised by the favourites emerging.
The cost of a seat will be £55 plus VAT.
A click of this RUG 2019 agenda link will open an email message with the subject line already inserted.
If you don't see your preferred module or topic in the list, simply add it in the appropriate place at the foot of the email.
Ask your donorflex Liaison Manager (DLM) – the colleague whose login credentials give access to areas of the donorflex website that are off-limits to most – to click the Bookings button, on the right of the main menu, and choose the venue.
It's worth remembering a couple of things.
Firstly, the immediate fields of the booking form are for the details of the person who'll be our point of contact for the booking.
If that person is also a delegate, which isn't always the case, we need those details to be repeated after you've clicked the blue 'New delegate' button. It's also worth clicking the 'Update' booking button just the once, after you've completed your registration. If you click it after each delegate has been detailed, you and we will receive multiple email confirmations.
Secondly, if you need to replace a delegate with another colleague, please click the 'Yes' radio button in the 'Cancelled?' area, then and click 'New' delegate to add the replacement.
Why? Well, if you simply over-write one delegate's details with another, we won't know that you've done so. That's particularly critical if dietary or access needs are important.
That's it! We look forward to another great RUG season.

Let's face it, 2016 has been a big, festering wound of a year.
My personal stuff is well-covered territory: My mom died. My job changed dramatically. Really, when you think about it, those are really hefty things and the fact that I am sitting here at 12:15 am on December 27 in my sister's living room and not a complete puddle of tears is an accomplishment in its own right.
Beyond the personal dramas, there's a whole slew of collective world stuff that has been weighing on all of us. Syria. Brexit. Small-scale terrorist attacks that maimed and killed hundreds and threaten our daily routines. North Korea. A divisive and horrid U.S. election cycle. Donald Trump being elected. More celebrity deaths than any of us want to count (David Bowie, Prince, Leonard Cohen, and just yesterday, George Michael – are you kidding me?). Zika virus. It's A LOT to handle.
My list is probably too long and someone, somewhere will tell me that I should pick one or two of them and focus on small goals. But that's not the way I want to do it. I either want to win big and revel in glory or fail just as spectacularly and learn from my mistakes. That's a bit out of character for me, but something in me broke in 2016 (and it's a good thing), and it's time for me to stop living on the sidelines of my own life.
People say to me all the time, "You have the best life." They say that because they see the world through the lens of my Facebook and Instagram pages. Pictures of concerts and cocktails and me out with friends, posts about bands that I love, and my adorable nephew, and things that bring smiles and happiness. And I do love all those parts of my life.
But I think that for a lot of people – including me – only show the world the highlight reel on social media. You see all the good stuff, and none of the bad stuff. Most of those people that tell me I have "the best life" don't realize that I probably go to 75% of those shows by myself. That I see the staff and the bartenders at my favorite venues more than I see my friends. What most people don't realize is that I am scared to death 99.9% of the time about what other people think of me. People don't see that when I'm at home, I curl up in the corner of my couch wearing leggings and sweatshirts and eat salt and vinegar potato chips and watch endless reruns of The Big Bang Theory. I'm lonely, but I have built freaking fortresses around myself to keep from getting hurt (and that, my friends, keeps people out). Half the time, I'm sitting there berating myself that I should be doing something … running or cleaning my closet or reading or writing something. But I haven't done ANY OF IT. Because I'm so frightened of winning or failing or anything other than things that keep me on an even keel.
And I'm tired of it. So, in 2017, I'm going to change it, and it starts with that great big list of things I want to do. Writing it down and putting it out there in the world is my version of Andy Dufresne's "Get busy living or get busy dying." It's here now. For everyone to see. So there's no turning back (because now you all know that I worry about what you think of me).
Maybe it's hopeless optimism, stupidity, or perhaps even that Liz Gilbert book I'm reading, but I feel like even if that checklist above has zero checkmarks on December 31, 2017, 2017 is still going to be a good year. I feel it in my gut.
We're all due for one, don't you think?

Someone told me recently "F *#! the safe choice" so with that I say focus on the whole damn list, and get after it!!!! Two is safe, a laundry list of things isn't and that's the best part!!!
2016, man. I'm sorry. And not that the silver linings make things worth it, but I hope there were at least a few. Your 2017 list is wonderful. Definitely don't cut it. I'm excited about one blog post a week. And mad props to you, because I absolutely believe you will get to 125 concerts this year.
Thanks, lady. I'm okay…really. But in dire need of some excitement and change. Hence the big list!

Free Clinics and the Uninsured: The Need for Remote Area Medical in Central Appalachia After Health Reform.
In 2008, the election of President Barack Obama brought health care to the forefront of national discussions and led to the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA). The legislation changed the rules of health care delivery in the United States, but the ACA did not do one fundamental thing: It did not end the need for many of the nation's most needy patients to seek free medical care from groups such as Remote Area Medical (RAM).
A mobile clinic, RAM brings together volunteer dentists, physicians, nurses, and other professionals as well as support staff for multi-day clinic events to provide free, on-site care to anyone presenting for treatment without qualification questions. This thesis looks at the ongoing need for RAM in central Appalachia after the passage of the ACA due to a continued lack of comprehensive health care coverage for all Americans.

Theodore Palaiologos Kantakouzenos (; after 1361 – 1410) was a Byzantine nobleman and probable close relation to the Emperor John VI Kantakouzenos.

Background
Theodore is theorised to have been the son of Matthew Kantakouzenos, son of Emperor John VI, and his wife Irene Palaiologina. Were this identification to be accurate, Theodore would likely have been born after the couple had taken residence in the Peloponnese in 1361, since he was not listed by the former emperor as being among his descendants prior to this time. Alternatively, given the unusually large age gap between Theodore's children and Matthew, it may be more likely that Theodore was instead the child of one of Matthew's sons, Demetrios or John, both of whom had reached maturity by 1361. As there is evidence to support both identifications, it is not possible to establish Theodore's parentage with any more certainty. The referral in historical sources of Theodore as the theíos (uncle) of Emperor Manuel II Palaiologos does not offer any further clarification as by this point, theíos had become a general term for cousin.

Life
Theodore was probably among the volunteers who left Constantinople in 1383 to join Manuel II in the defence of Thessaloniki against the Turks. He is known to have maintained correspondence with Demetrios Kydones and John Chortasmenos, who had composed verses giving praise to his house as well as to Theodore himself.

During the summer of 1397, Constantinople was besieged by the Ottomans under Sultan Bayezid I. Due to the desperation of the situation, Theodore, alongside John of Natala, was sent to the court of Charles VI of France as an imperial ambassador, bearing a letter from Manuel requesting the French king's military aid. Arriving in October, Theodore was received by a sympathetic Charles, who treated the ambassadors with great courtesy and promised to send assistance within the year. Further to this, Charles also provided funds for the two nobles to travel to the British Isles to treat with King Richard II of England, with the aim of soliciting further aid. Though the latter was too distracted by domestic troubles at this point to provide any support, Theodore and John were able to return with six hundred French troops led by the Marshal Boucicaut, clearing the immediate approach to Constantinople and breaking the blockade.

In the autumn of 1398, Theodore was named ambassador to Venice, where he maintained both a commercial presence as well as a political one, and was awarded citizenship of the republic by the Doge in December of that year. In 1409, he attended the synod in Constantinople which condemned the two wayward bishops, Makarios of Ankyra and Matthew of Medeia. He was described as being a Senator during this time. He died of plague in 1410.

Family
Theodore's wife was Helena Ouresina Doukaina, a daughter of John Uroš, ruler of Thessaly. He is believed to have had the following issue:
George Palaiologos Kantakouzenos, "Sachatai" (d. circa 1456–59), scholar and military commander, defended Smederevo during a Hungarian attack in 1456
Andronikos Palaiologos Kantakouzenos (d. June 3/4, 1453, executed), the last Grand Domestic of the Byzantine Empire
Thomas Kantakouzenos (d. July 25, 1463 in Adrianople), diplomat for Đurađ Branković, Despot of Serbia
Irene Kantakouzene (d. May 1457), wife of Serbian Despot Đurađ Branković
Helena Kantakouzene or Theodora Kantakouzene, Empress of Trebizond
 A daughter who married George VIII, King of Georgia

The Byzantist Donald Nicol, who initially attributed the offspring to Demetrios Kantakouzenos, later reversed his position and stated that it was more likely that Theodore was the actual father. His reason was that, given that George's eldest son was also named Theodore, the new theory would correlate with a common Byzantine practice of naming the eldest son for their grandfather. Similarly, one of Irene's sons was named Todor, possibly also being named after Theodore.

Q: Wildcard * not interreted by python argparse I'm trying to write a scrip that could take all files in a directory and allowing the user to use the  * to refere to multiples files.
This is the line in which I set up the parser to recive the input files:
parser.add_argument('-f', '--files', help='The files to compare.', required=True, nargs='+')

This is the line of the error
Invalid argument: '.\\rmsd\\*.xyz'

This is the code I run to execute the script
python .\rsmd.py -r .\rmsd\1.xyz -f .\rmsd\*.xyz

My purpose is to let the user use the script in Windows and in Linux.

A: On Windows, python only receives the .\rmsd\*.xyz as string, it doesn't evaluate which files match the pattern. you can use e.g. the glob module to parse that.
import glob
my_txt_files = glob.glob("*.txt")  # returns list of filenames in current directory matching the pattern
# e.g.:
matched_files = glob.glob(arguments.files)

Edit for platforms:
You could check if more than one file was matched to make it more platform-independent
import argparse
import glob

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('-f', '--files', nargs='+')
arguments = parser.parse_args()
matched_files = []
for file in arguments.files:
    if glob.escape(file) != file:
        # -> There are glob pattern chars in the string
        matched_files.extend(glob.glob(file))
    else:
        matched_files.append(file)

If you don't want to handle it in the program, you can start the program on Powershell with prior extension like this
python rsmd.py -f (get-childitem *.txt)

Q: Web Crypto API – ECDH - Possible to import private key with only the private key component, without the public key components? Given a P-256 Elliptical Curve Diffie-Hellman Private Key (which is simply a random 256-bit integer): is it possible to import this private key into a CryptoKey object, using the window.crypto.subtle.importKey() method of the Web Crypto API – without having the public key components?
I know that it's possible to import the private key if the public key components (which are derived from the private key component) are available as well.  For example, the code below runs successfully:
window.crypto.subtle.importKey(
    "jwk", //can be "jwk" (public or private), "raw" (public only), "spki" (public only), or "pkcs8" (private only)
    {
    "crv":"P-256",
    "d":"eM8u2176zFk9bwDP_jbJqnm-TlSo6GX702D9I_1AqBU",
    "ext":true,
    "key_ops":["deriveKey","deriveBits"],
    "kty":"EC",
    "x":"5Uw_SuaGZTFAuQuDArnLEmmyp4TpHx3AlBxL4EUEzbQ",
    "y":"RO5t581VBuAKTQZVPSB__ebV6y9GCzrl8lBV2-p9BlM"
    },
    {   //these are the algorithm options
    name: "ECDH",
    namedCurve: "P-256", //can be "P-256", "P-384", or "P-521"
    },
    true, //whether the key is extractable (i.e. can be used in exportKey)
    ["deriveKey"] //"deriveKey" and/or "deriveBits" for private keys only (just put an empty list if importing a public key)
)
.then(function(key) {
    console.log(key);
})
.catch(function(err){
    console.error(err);
});

However, if only the private key component is available, without the public key components, as in the code below, the Web Crypto API throws a DOMException with the message 'Data provided to an operation does not meet requirements'.
window.crypto.subtle.importKey(
    "jwk", //can be "jwk" (public or private), "raw" (public only), "spki" (public only), or "pkcs8" (private only)
    {
    "crv":"P-256",
    "d":"eM8u2176zFk9bwDP_jbJqnm-TlSo6GX702D9I_1AqBU",
    "ext":true,
    "key_ops":["deriveKey","deriveBits"],
    "kty":"EC"
    },
    {   //these are the algorithm options
    name: "ECDH",
    namedCurve: "P-256", //can be "P-256", "P-384", or "P-521"
    },
    true, //whether the key is extractable (i.e. can be used in exportKey)
    ["deriveKey"] //"deriveKey" and/or "deriveBits" for private keys only (just put an empty list if importing a public key)
)
.then(function(key) {
    console.log(key);
})
.catch(function(err){
    console.error(err);
});

I've also tried using pkcs8 format for the key, instead of JWK, but no luck there either.
The documentation for the Web Crypto API shows that it is possible to import a ECDH private key in JWK format – so, it seems that it should be possible to do so without the public key components as well (the Web Crypto API should be able to calculate the public key components, if needed, from the private key component internally, as it seems to do with the .generateKey() method).  However, the importKey() method seems to only work if the public key components are included.
Am I missing something here?  If not, does anyone know of a solution or workaround, short of calculating the public key components separately prior to importing, and including them with the private key component in the importKey() method (which seems overly cumbersome and unnecessary)?

A: You can always derive the public point from the private key by scalar multiplying the private key with the base point (or the generator point)  of the curve you chosen. How you complete this depends on your run-time environment.

A: If you have the pkcs8 format you can use this:
crypto.subtle.importKey("pkcs8", [privateKeyBuffer],{name:"ECDH",namedCurve:"P-256"} , true, ["deriveKey"]);

Q: How to generate a array in a function and return it I would like to extend the solution i found to return an array from a function, so that i have a function that creates an array with a length that's provided to this function.
But now if i call the function like this i get a warning, that 'length' is undeclared.
double * my_function(int length)
{
    static double arr[length] = {0};

    return arr;
}

How can this behavior be avoided?

A: Static arrays must have a length that is known at compile-time. With ordinary automatic arrays you can specify a variable length, but that is a special C99 feature called "variable-length arrays", or VLA's for short.
Variable-length static arrays are not possible because the storage for them has to be allocated even before your program is allowed to run by the operating system.
Automatic (local) variable-length arrays are possible because it just implies incrementing/decrementing the stack pointer by a variable rather than a constant. It is still a dangerous thing to do, though, because you can easily exceed the available stack space in case of having a larger value as the length.

A: If you are going to allocate variable length array, why not use calloc?
double * my_function(size_t length)
{
    double *arr;
    arr = calloc(length, sizeof *arr);
    return arr;
}

free() the arr once you are done and check if it's NULL before using it.

A: Look into malloc.  The *alloc functions are used to dynamically create arrays.  They're created on something called the heap, and when you're programming, you need to make sure that things that are allocated on the heap are cared for properly, or you can start having memory leaks.  In your case, you have somewhat taken care of it by making it static.  The other major way to do things is to have the caller of the function free the memory when it's done with it.
Your usage should be something like this:
double * my_function(int length)
{
    static double * arr = NULL;
    if (arr == NULL) {
        arr = malloc(length * sizeof(double));
    }
    return arr;
}

Note, by having the static and putting the wrapper around it as I did, this is setting arr up to fit a singleton design.
The non-singleton alternative is:
double * my_function(int length)
{
    static double * arr = NULL;
    if (arr != NULL) {
        free(arr);
    }
    arr = malloc(length * sizeof(double));
    return arr;
}

This one reallocates each time it is called.  Any function that saved the return value from my_function would then find it to be out of date.

A: First of all, this is not ANSI C (as far as I remember). You cannot declare arrays of size that is not a compile-time constant.
Secondly, this approach is in general considered extremely bad as it implements a function that is not thread-safe. Multiple threads using this function will corrupt each-other's data in this array.
A proper general way is to allocate an array using malloc()/calloc() inside the function. Depending on the problem you are trying to solve and performance requirements, you might consider doing various optimizations to avoid repeated/frequent allocations.

A: Just out of curiosity, Why didn't you use malloc?
and as mentioned above, since you are declaring a static array so the program will need to know the length of the array at compile time


On the occasion of NATIONAL DAY OF CUBAN REVOLUTION IN 2017, H.E. Professor Dr. Anton Caragea, President of Institute of International Relation and Economic Cooperation had addressed a special congratulatory message to H.E. Raul Castro, President of Council of State and Council of Ministers of Republic of Cuba.
The two historic leaders of Cuban revolution: Cde Fidel Castro and Raul Castro, President of Council of Ministers of Republic of Cuba.
On every First of January, the world is celebrating the VICTORY OF CUBAN REVOLUTION, a moment forever connected with the huge personality and historical character of FIDEL CASTRO RUZ, the leader of the Cuban revolution and the creator of the powerful and independent Cuba of today.
The recent manifestations, organized on the sad moments of the FUNERALS OF THE LEADER OF CUBAN REVOLUTION FIDEL CASTRO had proven internally and internationally that Your Excellency is the only guarantor to the legacy of Commander FIDEL CASTRO RUZ and his instructions, in carving in Cuba an authentic democratic and people`s revolution, that is serving as an example and inspiration for Latina America and the world community and I hope that, with Your support, the relations between Romania and Cuba will continue to rapidly develop on cultural, economic and political arena, proving the vitality of the bilateral relation, we can read in the message.
During 2016 the bilateral relation between Cuba and Romania had marked a clear up swing culminating with the fact that: 2016 is the first year when a Romanian Congratulatory Message was directed towards H.E. Raul Castro President of Council of Ministers of Republic of Cuba.
On 11 June 2015, a friendly and cooperation meeting had taken place between Prof. Dr. Anton Caragea, President Director-General of Institute of International Relations and Economic Cooperation and H.E. Victor Ramon Carazo, Ambassador of Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.
Prof. Dr. Anton Caragea express his amicable fillings and friendly interest towards the recent evolution`s in Venezuela, evolutions that are consolidating Venezuela`s economic development and independence, open society and are creating a sense of perfect unity between the people of Venezuela and the government.
