Players Are Obsessed With Far Cry 5's Shovels
Ethan Gach
Filed to: Far Cry 5Filed to: Far Cry 5

Far Cry 5 has lots of weapons, ranging from throwing knives to heavy machine guns, but none have captured players' imaginations quite like its shovels. Can you dig it?
Just a few days after release, Far Cry 5 has managed to elevate the handling of a gardening tool from a chore into an Olympic sport that's both strangely elegant and super deadly. The game's melee weapons, including baseball bats, sticks, and lead pipes, can all be thrown, but only shovels can actually impale their targets.
GIF: YouTube
Simply equip the item from your weapon wheel, hold the left trigger to aim, line up the shot with the aiming reticle, and then let it fly with the right trigger. Humans, bears, even helicopters—nobody is safe.
Players are putting together highlights of their best shovel moments, as well as montages like the video the above GIF is from. Not only are they one of the game's most versatile weapons, since they have both melee and projectile capabilities, but it's also just satisfying as hell knowing you took out an enemy with a makeshift javelin. For such a top-heavy object the game's shovels have pretty great range over long distances.
Players have also created meta-games around the shovel, including shovel challenges like capturing outposts without using any other weapons or abilities. They're also using the shovel to hunt birds, or in my case, Peggie pickup convoys. A small discussion has even popped up regarding whether the proper term for these instruments of carnage is actually "spade." It's not.
There was also a Steam review that blew up on social media which analyzed the game completely in terms of its shovel-play. "You can get a perk that allows you to carry, I am not kidding here, 9 shovels," part of it read. "My shovels thrown per minute, (or STPM) is honestly insane." People are already making memes about about this new meta-stat with some effectively playing through Far Cry 5 as would-be Shovel Knights. At this point it's only a matter of time before the whole thing becomes its own speedrunning category.
The only downside to shovels is you have to pick them up after you throw them, just like the rest of the game's projectiles. This is harder than it sounds, especially when you're out in the wild getting harassed by skunks and eagles and just blindly launching shovels into the tall grass. Learning to pick up after yourself is just one of the many things aspiring shovelers must learn in order to perfect Far Cry 5's most dangerous skill.

Q: environment variables in relation to web servers and security I want to set some environment variables on my linux box that can be accessed by a node.js server. These variables will contain sensitive information like database passwords and API keys.
My current setup is that a user with nearly no privileges (it can't even sudo) runs the node.js server. Because I want to limit what this user can do/know to just running the server (misguided?), I don't want to put the env variables in the user's ~/.bash_profile.
So my thought was to put the environment variables needed for the server into /etc/profile; that way, the low privilege user running the server wouldn't have the variables in their config, but could still use them. However, the permissions on /etc/profile are such that everyone has read access which makes logical sense but leaves me back where I started.
What is the best practice for web server environment variables on a linux system? If they can always be read by any user then what makes environmental variables a better practice than just importing a text file with keys and values located at the project root into the web server (like dotenv)? Is it that environment variables aren't a security thing and rather just a best practice of maintenance which is why I can't connect the dots here?

A: You should not save any sensitive data in plain text. It should be encrypted so no one can decrypt it.
Add all config in JSON file
Encrypt JSON file using some password and save on server
While running application decrypt the file and use variables
Refer this module:
https://github.com/nareshv/secure-conf
Note: To protect such code you can make your javascript in an unreadable format on production using https://javascriptobfuscator.com/.
Using such technique can save your code.

A: You could add them to a file owned by a different group. Then configure /etc/sudoers to allow this user to run the server under as the other group.
This will not give the user any other sudo privileges (such as root). You can then use a shell wrapper to help the user.
Sudo is very configurable.

Q: changeDetection onPush is triggering only on second click I found some issues with the performance regarding Change detection so I started using onPush from the past few weeks. Everything is fine till now but I donno its behaving weird with p-chips where its working only on second click :(
Stackblitz Working Example enter link description here
Here in stackblitz you can see the name changes on first click with detectChanges but thats not the scenario with p-chips... Can someone help me :)
Tried using settimeout just to check whether its refreshing total view or not but settimeout is also not updating the view

A: You can use setTimeout(() => this._cdRef.detectChanges(), 0); in your emptyArray function. It uses zones and detect changes after it.

A: Hi guys I tried all your answers and even settimeout is not working for me. I also dont prefer using settimeout as it does change detection from app component level
This worked for me :). I really cant understand why detectChanges is working for all the rest and only for this p-chips I need to add markForCheck before it to work.
this._cdRef.markForCheck();
this._cdRef.detectChanges();

A: I believe the statement of this question will help.
I could not find a reason for this happening with OnPush detection strategy, but sending your detectChanges() call back in the queue (making it async) will solve your problem.
You can do that by calling the method in a setTimeout call:
setTimeout(() => this._cdRef.detectChanges(), 0);

Please check the stackblitz demo.


Using Individual Brain Differences to Teach and Reach All Learners held in Boston, Massachusetts, I was fortunate to hear two fascinating talks by Dr. Daniel Ansari about the neuroscience of math. Dr. Ansari shared his groundbreaking research including the functional brain imaging that he used to discover the specific brain networks involved in basic numerical and mathematical tasks.
He has also identified atypical patterns of brain activation in children experiencing significant difficulty learning math. By correlating these imaging patterns with other measures of academic performance, Dr. Ansari's work is already providing important insights into the diagnosis and treatment of math difficulties.
I look forward to sharing some of these exciting and important developments when I speak at The West End Day School this coming Wednesday, November 28 at 6:30 PM on "Why is Math So Hard?"

Марк Борове́цки (; род. 12 июля 1989, Каната, Канада) — канадский хоккеист, защитник клуба НХЛ за «Нэшвилл Предаторз».

Клубная карьера

Молодёжная
Боровецки выступал два сезона с 2006 по 2008 года в клубе «Смитс-Фоллс Бирс» из Центральной молодёжной хоккейной лиги (CJHL). В 2008 году Боровецки решил перейти в университет Кларксона. В сезоне 2010/11 был капитаном этого университета.

Профессиональная

Оттава Сенаторз
На драфте 2008 года был выбран «Оттавой Сенаторз» в 5-м раунде под общим 139-м номером.

11 марта 2011 года подписал контракт новичка с «Оттавой», соглашение было рассчитано на 2 года. Позже, Боровецки отправили в фарм-клуб «Сенаторов» «Бингемптон Сенаторз». В том сезоне он сыграл 9 матчей и результативными действиями не отметился.

7 ноября 2013 года в матче против «Монреаль Канадиенс» Боровецки забросил свою первую шайбу в НХЛ. 18 августа 2014 года Боровецки и «Сенаторы» согласовали условия трехлетнего продления контракта на сумму около $ 3,3 млн.

В сезоне 2016/17 набрал 154 штрафные минуты в 70 матчах, став лидером сезона в НХЛ. По окончании сезона, 5 октября 2017 года, переподписал контракт с «Оттавой» на 2 года на общую сумму $ 2,4 млн.

23 октября 2018 года толкнул локтем защитника «Бостон Брюинз» Урхо Вааканайнена. Он не был оштрафован, но получил дисквалификацию на одну игру за данный инцидент. По возвращении 28 октября в матче против «Вегас Голден Найтс» Боровецки нанёс удар в голову Коди Икина. Боровецки был оштрафован на пять минут, а позже дисквалифицирован на три игры.

В сезоне 2019/20 провёл свой лучший сезон по результативности, набрав 18 очков (7+11) в 53-х матчах. Марк забросил за один сезон сразу 7 шайб, тогда как ранее за 8 сезонов в НХЛ забил только 8 шайб.

Нэшвилл Предаторз
9 октября 2020 года подписал двухлетний контракт с «Нэшвилл Предаторз» на общую сумму $ 4 млн. В сезоне 2020/21 сыграл за «Предаторз» 22 матча и набрал 1 очко (0+1). Преимущественно был защитников третьей пары вместе с Мэттом Беннингом. Часть сезона канадцу пришлось пропустить из-за травмы верхней части тела.

15 февраля 2022 года продлил соглашение с «хищниками» на 1 год и $ 900 тыс.

Личная жизнь
Марк поженился со своей женой Тарой 4 июля 2015 года. Их сын, Майлз, родился 12 февраля 2020 года.

Боровецки имеет прозвище «Борокоп». В декабре 2019 года он предотвратил кражу и предпринял попытку ареста гражданина, за что и получил данное прозвище. Игрок покупал детскую одежду и заметил злоумышленника, который проникнул в чужой автомобиль, похитив рюкзак. Защитник «Сенаторз» остановил похитителя, повалив на землю, после чего вызвал полицию, однако тот сбежал.

Благодаря данной истории стали активно продаваться футболки с надписью «Борокоп», но вместо личной выгоды, канадец потратил выручку с продажи на поддержку «Оттавы Кондорс» — игроки которой с физическими и умственными проблемами. Также Марк является капитаном данной команды.

Боровецки со своей женой Тарой активно поддерживает ЛГБТ-сообщество и канадских солдат.

Q: Глюки в Android Studio? Пишу приложение на Android, тестирую проделанную работу на физическом устройстве. Все было отлично, но в какой то момент студия перестала заливать приложение с изменениями в телефон. После нажатия кнопки Run все происходит как обычно, приложение запускается, но без каких либо изменений.
У кого то так было? Как вы исправляли эту проблему?
P.S. Раньше было такое иногда, но после того как строил APK и переустанавливал проходило, сейчас никак. Студию перезагружал, телефон тоже.

A: У вас вторая версия студии и включена опция InstantRun. Вам надо пойти в настройки и выключить её.


Finally came up with the rules for the next contest.
And as always, winner gets bragging rights!
Will try to make a banner for this contest when I find the time to do so.

PRFDHR Seminar: The Preferred Solution? Repatriation and the Resolution of Refugee Situations - Professor Megan Bradley
Henry R. Luce Hall (LUCE ), 203 See map
34 Hillhouse Avenue
Voluntary return is often hailed as the preferred solution to displacement. However, reasons for "preferring" return are rarely examined in detail, and given that returnees regularly face violence and impoverishment, many are understandably sceptical of this claim.
Focusing on the right of return – the key principle underpinning repatriation movements – Professor Megan Bradley identifies key obstacles to refugee repatriation. She then explores four interlinked senses in which return may be morally valuable and in some cases even normatively preferable as a durable solution for refugees: first, that the right of return may serve as a means of upholding housing, land and property rights; second, that it may affirm and advance the equal rights of all citizens; third, that it embodies opposition to ethnic cleansing; and fourth, that it may be an important form of redress for refugees. This suggests that under the right circumstances return can advance morally valuable outcomes that other approaches to resolving displacement do not. While some persuasive arguments may be made for promoting return as the preferred solution to displacement, this should not translate into restrictions on the claims of individual refugees to pursue other solutions, such as local integration in host countries. Even if refugees access other solutions, they retain a legitimate claim to return to their countries of origin. In this sense the possibility of return is essential to the resolution of refugee situations, even if it is not uniformly preferable.
Professor Megan Bradley is Associate Professor at the Department of Political Science and Associate Director of the Institute for the Study of International Development at McGill University, Montreal, Canada. She is also the Co-founder and Coordinator of the McGill Research Group and Senior Research Affiliate at the Refugee Law Initiative, University of London. Since 2015, Professor Bradley has been Associate Director at the interuniversity (University of Montreal and McGill University) Centre for International Peace and Security Studies (CIPSS).
Professor Bradley's research and teaching focuses on refugees and internal displacement, human rights, humanitarianism, transitional justice, natural disasters, and gender. She is the author of Refugee Repatriation: Justice, Responsibility and Redress (Cambridge University Press, 2013), and the editor of Forced Migration, Reconciliation and Justice (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2015) and Refugees' Roles in Resolving Displacement and Building Peace: Beyond Beneficiaries (Georgetown University Press, 2019). Her forthcoming book, The International Organization for Migration: Commitments, Challenges, Complexities, (Routledge, 2020), looks at the IOM's evolution and influence, focusing on the humanitarian sector and the implications for migrants' rights. Alongside her research and teaching, Professor Bradley has worked with a range of organizations concerned with humanitarianism, human rights and development including the Brookings Institution in Washington, DC, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the International Development Research Centre (IDRC). She served as the Cadieux-Léger Fellow in the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade. Professor Bradley has published numerous articles in peer-reviewed journals, written several book chapters and given keynote addresses and presentations at many conferences around the world on her areas of interest.

← Watching the suffering of children….
The summer has disappeared under a growing pile of books; loose pages of notes filed under the 'free-flow' system have formed a giant trip-hazard…my dissertation has become a living creature, haunting me night and day.
The walks to physically break away and escape currently involve passing blackberry tangles, their ripening fruit serving as the markers of time. Always a beautiful sight, the hard green to pink to soft midnight inkiness demonstrate nature's ability to transform white blossoms into edible goodness. Every year I'm transported back to my first memory of Kentish abundance and free food; our brief stopover in Rolvenden in 1966 was a glorious treat in an old country house with a beautiful garden. Entering down a long drive the house belonged to a picture book whilst the garden was a true manifestation of paradise…at least to my 5 year-old eyes.
Rolvenden Manor was our temporary home in between two postings; from the age of three I had been living in Malaysia where my first memories of life are set amongst the tropical heat and wet. My previous life had been illustrated with landscapes of tea shrubs, rainforest walks, rubber trees revealing their silvery sap and jungle waterfalls crashing into secret pools. Unusual knobbly and spiky fruits from vibrant markets offered sweet and sickly smells; Seremban shopping street was my first encounter with the intoxicating draw of roasting coffee although my only taste at that time was a sugar cube dipped into my father's instant, enjoyed on our Sunday picnics under the palms at Port Dickson.
The month-long voyage from Singapore had returned us wearily to Southampton; London involved several weeks living in a Salvation Army Hostel. Thus, arriving at this pretty place was as good as any moment in a fairy story. We were due to start a new life in Cold-War West Germany but these weeks represented my father's moment of 'leave'. How we ever got to rent this house will remain a mystery; my father's sudden death at the age of 60 brought an abrupt end to his memories…but I know he loved Kent and Rolvenden was near enough to Ashford to assume some link with military life. So our family settled into a half-chapter of English country life with walks across the fields which bordered the garden; I seem to recall a gate and metal fence, probably to keep the cows out.
Knowing my parents I'm certain that their philosophy was to get us children as worn out as possible with fresh air and exercise. Of the many details I can recall I certainly do not remember ever lying awake unable to sleep, despite suffering a broken arm at the time. My memory is punctuated with the delicious smell of cooking blackberries; when I recreate that dish of wild fruit and apples I'm always taken straight back to that country kitchen, but more especially to the process of picking the berries. How they shone like jewels and tasted as fabulous when heated; a perfume released which seemed to rival every one of our former tropical fruit bowl.
One of my favourite walks was across a field punctuated by an oast house; its door was slightly open and we entered…my father was in charge so he obviously thought it acceptable behaviour to step inside…It felt warm and smelt clean; I learnt of the hops being dried there and what we needed hops for. He may well have picked hops as part of his childhood…I know I took his love of these buildings with me and have never let go.
Today's blackberries evoke my life 48 years ago…now I need to re-walk that field and find the abandoned oast house.
Researching old recipes I came across one for 'Oast Cakes' which were, apparently, produced in frying pans over the cooking fires of the hop pickers.
8oz flour, half teaspoon baking powder, 2oz lard*, 2oz caster sugar, 3oz currants, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, water or parsnip wine (or mixture of both).
Sift the flour and baking powder, then add the fat. Rub in until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the sugar and currants, stir and then mix in the lemon juice and water or parsnip wine until the dough is soft but not wet. Roll out thinly and cut into rounds. Fry in shallow oil until golden brown on both sides.
*lard may be replaced by butter or vegetable fat; lard or dripping would have been the cheapest option available to the hop pickers.
A teaspoon of mixed spice may be added to the dry ingredients.
I haven't tried making these yet but I shall, with some adjustments; the lard will go and I shall bake them rather than frying, although they might do well on a hot griddle too. Frying in fat would have been the only option for hop pickers; their cooking facilities were basic, as was the choice of ingredients. Energy was required to tackle the hard physical labour required of the job, but I'm not sure whether they brought the parsnip wine from home? As with all research projects it's wise to dig deep; I've discovered recipes for Oast Cakes mixed with ale, an ingredient which makes sense given that there may well have been some to hand, leftover from the previous night's relaxation. Whatever, there is some experimenting to do…but first some blackberry-picking.

Another excellent piece of writing.
So sad that you are unable to delve into your father's memories and share those moments with him. I wish you good fortune in finding the oast house… and when you do please invite me round to partake in the oast cakes!

Report on Villarrica (Chile) — 4 November-10 November 2020
Global Volcanism Program, 2020. Report on Villarrica (Chile). In: Sennert, S K (ed.), Weekly Volcanic Activity Report, 4 November-10 November 2020. Smithsonian Institution and US Geological Survey.
39.42°S, 71.93°W; summit elev. 2847 m
SERNAGEOMIN reported that Villarrica's webcam recorded gas-and-ash emissions that rose no higher than 350 m above the crater rim at 1442 on 5 November, with similar activity during 0757-0808 and at 1412 on 6 November. An explosive event at 0051 on 8 November ejected incandescent material and produced a plume that rose 220 m. A gas-and-ash emission at 1814 on 10 November rose 320 m and drifted SSW. The Alert Level remained at Yellow, the second lowest level on a four-color scale. ONEMI maintained an Alert Level Yellow (the middle level on a three-color scale) for the municipalities of Villarrica, Pucón (16 km N), Curarrehue, and the commune of Panguipulli, and the exclusion zone for the public of 500 m around the crater.
Geologic Background. Glacier-clad Villarrica, one of Chile's most active volcanoes, rises above the lake and town of the same name. It is the westernmost of three large stratovolcanoes that trend perpendicular to the Andean chain. A 6-km-wide caldera formed during the late Pleistocene. A 2-km-wide caldera that formed about 3500 years ago is located at the base of the presently active, dominantly basaltic to basaltic-andesitic cone at the NW margin of the Pleistocene caldera. More than 30 scoria cones and fissure vents dot the flanks. Plinian eruptions and pyroclastic flows that have extended up to 20 km from the volcano were produced during the Holocene. Lava flows up to 18 km long have issued from summit and flank vents. Historical eruptions, documented since 1558, have consisted largely of mild-to-moderate explosive activity with occasional lava effusion. Glaciers cover 40 km2 of the volcano, and lahars have damaged towns on its flanks.

Thank You and Monthly Update
Thank you to so many of you for joining me at my re-election kick-off fundraiser last week. It was wonderful to be in the presence of so many family members, friends, constituents, and supporters. If you were unable to join us but would still like to contribute, you can still do so by clicking here.
You can always keep up with what I am doing by following me at @mkorman on Twitter, clicking "Like" on Delegate Marc Korman on Facebook, or visiting www.marckorman.com.
If you or someone you know lives in District 16 and is pursuing a higher education, don't forget the student can apply for a legislative scholarship. Every year, each Senator and Delegate in the Maryland General Assembly receives legislative scholarship funds through the Maryland Higher Education Commission to award to their constituents.
Visit http://www.marckorman.com/scholarship for more information.
I recently wrote a guest blog post for the Seventh State blog about former Planning Board Chairman Royce Hanson's book, Suburb. You can read my review of this vital work on Montgomery County land use here.
During the legislative session, we passed a change to the process by which the Attorney General can file suits against the federal government. Attorney General Frosh has filed a new suit, in concert with the Washington, DC Attorney General, against President Trump alleging violations of the Constitution's Foreign and Domestic Emoluments Clause. You can learn more about it here.
The Governor has now taken action on all bills passed by the General Assembly. A list of bills the Governor has vetoed can be found here. Bills are either vetoed on policy grounds--the Governor does not like them--or because the bills are duplicative of others bills that passed. For example, the Governor vetoed my legislation on leap day, leave day for state employees (HB 324) but signed the identical Senate version of the bill (SB 580).
Maryland has a a renters tax credit for low income seniors. Click here to learn more about your eligibility and how to apply.
In response to a request from Maryland legislators, the State Highway Administration has submitted the linked report regarding how to improve coordination between road work and utility work. A major complaint of many constituents is that it constantly seems like road work is done and then the road is dug back up a short-time later for something unrelated.
The report is a bit too self-congratulatory about the work the State Highway Administration is doing, but does offer a few suggestions. Coordination is complicated by the fact that many of the players are private companies. Even the government entities have difficulty coordinating. We have a situation in District 16 where River Road work was just completed by one party and now the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission has had to go back in because they just budgeted for an important capital project.
Anything that can be done to increase coordination and improve the situation for constituents on state roads would be welcome. I believe the County publishes a list to try and coordinate on County roads already.
A recent Montgomery County Inspector General report has found that traffic signals in Montgomery County have yellow signals below the state-set level of 3.5 seconds. This has an effect on red light cameras if someone crosses the stop line while the light is still yellow. I sent the County Executive a letter about this issue which you can read here.
I have previously highlighted episodes of Public Interest Podcast, which is the work of District 16's Jordan Cooper. A few recent episodes are particularly interesting for District 16 residents: Susan Kirk, Executive Director of Bethesda Cares; Ginanne Italiano, President of the Greater Bethesda Chamber; and Nancy Kopp, State Treasurer and former District 16 Delegate.
Congratulations to District 16's Ken Hartman, Director of the Bethesda Chevy Chase Regional Services Center. Ken is the recipient of the Greater Bethesda Chamber of Commerce's Ron Resch Business Advocate Award.
Best of luck and congratulations to Jane Fairweather, who is the incoming Chair-elect of the Greater Bethesda Chamber of Commerce.
Thank you to several District 16 residents who have joined or been renominated to local boards and commissions:
Advisory Committee on Consumer Protection: Jane Merkin
Friendship Heights Transportation Management District Advisory Committee: Manuel Ochoa
Citizens Review Panel on Children: Ronna Cook and Laura Coyle
Property Tax Assessment Board: Theodore Seale
Congratulations to Nancy Bliss of District 16 for becoming president of the League of Women Voters of Montgomery County.
Deborah Beers has retired as Mayor of the Town of Glen Echo after 25 years. Thank you to Mayor Beers for her service. Congratulations to her successor, Willem Polak, as well.
District 16 has three awardees at the annual Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington Annual Gala: Stuart Lessans, Breslau-Goldman Award; Sheldon Grosberg, Community Leadership Award; and Rabbi William Rudolph, Distinguished Service Award. Congratulations one and all.
If you know of a District 16 resident who merits recognition or condolences, please email marc@marckorman.com

Akademie der bildenden Künste Wien, eller Wiener Kunstakademie, är ett konstuniversitet i Wien och en av Europas äldsta konstakademier.

Historik

Akademie der bildenden Künste Wien bildades 1692 som skulptören och hovmålaren Peter Strudels (omkring 1660–1714) privatakademi. År 1725, under Karl VI:s regeringstid, ombildade barockmålaren Jacob van Schuppen (1670–1751) K.k. Hofacademie der Mahlerey, Bildhauerey und Baukunst (Kejserliga och kungliga hovakademin för måleri, skulptur och byggnadskonst). Denna erhöll efter kejsarens död 1740 allt mindre stöd från hovet, så att den slutligen inhystes i Jacob van Schuppens privata hushåll och där efter hand avvecklade undervisningen. Efter Jacob van Schuppens bortgång 1751 gavs hovakademin en rektorsbefattning. Barockmålaren Michelangelo Unterberger (1695–1758) var "rector magnificus" i ett par omgångar, däremellan rokokomålaren Paul Troger (1698–1762). År 1759 utsågs den svenske miniatyrmålaren Martin Mijtens den yngre till hovdirektör för akademin.

År 1772 blev alla befintliga konstskolor i Wien sammanslagna till en akademi för "förenade bildkonster". År 1786 flyttade akademin till huset Sankt Annahof i centrala Wien, där också offentliga konstutställningar anordnades.

År 1872 fick akademin högskolestatus och blev 1998, med bibehållande av namnet Akademie der bildenden Künste, universitet. Sedan 1877 finns akademin i en byggnad vid Schillerplatz i Wiens innerstad, vilken började byggas 1871 i samband med andra nyanläggningar i området. De ursprungliga ritningarna utfördes av den ansvarige för akademins arkitekturutbildning, Theophilus Hansen.  Byggnaden är i italiensk renässansstil, i fyra våningar och med förhöjda utsprång. De konstnärliga utsmyckningarna inomhus blev klara 1892, med takmålningarna i aulan gjorda av Anselm Feuerbach.

Läromedelssamling med tavelgalleri och kopparstickkabinett
I anslutning till akademin finns ett tavelgalleri med 250 målningar av berömda mästare, allt från 1400- och 1500-talets tidiga italienska måleri och fram till det måleri som växte fram samtidigt med akademin under 1700- och det tidiga 1800-talet. Här finns till exempel Het Laatste Oordeel (Domedagstriptyken) av Hieronymus Bosch, liksom verk av Lucas Cranach den äldre, Rembrandt, Peter Paul Rubens, Tizian och Bartolomé Esteban Murillo. Vid sidan av tavelgalleriet finns ett Kopparstickkabinett. Detta kabinett är en av de mest betydande grafiksamlingarna i Österrike. Både tavelgalleriet och kabinettet var från början avsedda som "läromedelssamlingar" för akademins elever.

En känd aspirant som inte blev antagen var Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)

Are you among the 36 Million allergy suffers across the United States? Are you experiencing runny nose, itchy watery eyes and sore throat. All of these uncomfortable symptoms can be a sign of allergies. Allergies can strike seasonally or persist all year, prompted by substances that lurk both indoors and outdoors.
Fall is just around the corner (can you believe it's almost October). The most common fall allergens are mold and mildew that form on the leaves lying on the ground and blowing in the wind. Autumn's dry air is the perfect carrier for mold spores, pollen and dust. Typically in the fall we experience very low humidity so lighter particles such as pollen and dust are blowing in the wind.
The third most common allergen this time of year is dust. Furnaces are frequently turned on for the first time in the fall. Most furnaces have not been turned on since last spring and have collected dust and furnace filters have not been changed.

Among the tips provided when you pick up the bundle, you're advised to wear protective equipment when you head over to Expo Idaho to dig in with your shovel.
"Plus, they get really heavy, really quickly. Sand is really dense, so they can weigh easily 30 pounds or more," says Vanessa Fisher, the public services manager at the Garden City Public Library. "So, you have to keep that in mind because you have to move them and haul them."
Bundles of 25 bags are being handed out to get you started, just be sure to bring proof of Garden City residency with you.


The National Retail Federation is once again using a funny TV commercial in an effort to send a serious message.
The border adjustment tax did not make it into the final version of the tax reform bill that Congress passed and President Trump signed, and now the NRF is hoping to score a win again with another funny commercial.
This time the target is tariffs.
NRF enlisted actor Ben Stein to reprise his role as the droning economics teacher who lectures a classroom full of bored high school students in the 1986 movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
It turns out the lecture in that movie — does anyone remember? Anyone? Anyone? — was about the fact that the tariffs imposed during the Great Depression made the nation's economy worse instead of better.
In NRF's commercial, which again ran on television as well as on digital platforms, Stein is shown talking to a class of mostly inattentive high school students about tariffs.
The commercial is cute, and it makes its point. The only question is whether anyone in the Trump administration is listening. Anyone? Anyone?

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 26/06/2015 (2773 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The sale is significant for a number of reasons.
For one, it is a coming-out of sorts for MTM, signifying its transformation from a machine shop to a machine manufacturer after doggedly pursuing greater degrees of customization and innovation in producing equipment for electrical transformer manufacturers around the world.
BORIS MINKEVICH / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS Gord Atamanchuk (left) and Andrew Chan stand next to a machine their firm sold to a Chinese manufacturer. An open house in China could lead to many more sales.
It is moving up the value chain.
The shipment is also effectively a new product launch MTM believes could prove to be very much in demand.
The machine is an automated, robotic stacker used by transformer manufacturers for the construction of transformer cores.
A lengthy relationship with Sanbian Sci-tech Co. Ltd. in Sanmen County, Zhejiang province, just south of Shanghai, was integral to the development of the innovative piece of equipment. MTM has sold other equipment to Sanbian — among the largest transformer manufacturers in China — in the past.
Robin Lu, a member of the ownership group and president of MTM, said its new technology will allow manufacturers to work on four different transformer cores at the same time.
An open house has been planned at the Sanbian plant in China, where about 15 to 20 other Chinese transformer manufacturers are planning to attend to see the technology in action.
"This is very important for us," said Lu. "Depending on how well the demonstration goes, we have been told by some people in the transformer business that we will be needing a bigger plant."
Gord Atamanchuk, MTM's general manager and another partner in the firm, said development of the robotic stacker was a 20-month project.
"We have had lots of co-operation from the federal and provincial governments in this project," he said. "We couldn't have done it without their help."
Regardless of the success of the new equipment that sells for slightly less than $1 million, the small 18-employee company has been punching above its weight for some time.
It is already selling its winding, cutting and stacking machines to transformer manufacturers in about 40 countries.
Steve Tracy, an industrial engineer at Olsun Electronics in Richmond, Ill. near Chicago, works with MTM equipment at Olsun but has used other brands at other companies he has been with.
"These are precision cutting machines," Tracy said. "I'm amazed that their machines (MTM's) are so accurate. They may not be the fastest, but they require so little maintenance compared to some of the other machines."
MTM has become a regular client of the Manitoba government's trade-marketing support, which covers half the cost of air fare to attend trade shows. It's also a bit of a poster child for the industrial commercialization assistance provided by the National Research Council's Industrial Research Assistance program.
'There are about 2,000 companies in China that would be potentially interested' — Andrew Chan, global sales manager for MTM
Ryan Johnston, an industrial technology adviser with NRC-IRAP, said the company has done all the right things in its product-development work.
Johnston said one of the key elements has been the identification of the customer needs. And in MTM's case, it has worked closely with Sanbian all the way through the process.
He said one of the things many companies do not properly think through or ignore or fail to do well is the identification of market demand.
"It really can have a massive impact on the successful result of the product," Johnston said. "It comes down to market identification of customer needs and what problem is being solved. That, in itself, can become the differentiator for a new, innovative product."
Johnston believes MTM has done it well, and company officials are getting all their ducks in a row for what they hope to become a busy order book.
"We did the initial engineering and proof-of-concept, and then we presented it to them as a solution to their requirement, said Andrew Chan, MTM's global sales manager. "They partnered with us to build the first machines."
The solution has to do with labour and cost issues. MTM's competitors are far more expensive European manufacturers.
Transformer manufacturers around the world are busy with developing countries building out their power grid and industrialized countries requiring updated equipment.
China has become a major international supplier, but Lu said its labour costs are increasing significantly so producers there are looking for more automation and lower price points than the expensive European equipment suppliers.
"China is a very big market for us," Chan said. "Being able to have this event in September (where other potential customers will be able to see it in operation) is important. There are about 2,000 companies in China that would be potentially interested. This machine addresses both the labour and automation issues."

Nigerian 'shakedown' jolts MTN and banks
02 September 2018 - 00:25 PALESA VUYOLWETHU TSHANDU
MTN, Africa's largest mobile operator, has found itself in the cross hairs in Nigeria's volatile political and economic environment once again with the demand by the country's central bank to return as much as $8.1bn (R119bn) in dividends.Looming elections and a shortage of foreign exchange in the continent's largest economy have been singled out as reasons for the country's scramble to seek the return of the funds as it grapples with a currency that has slumped more than 45% over the past three years against the US dollar.Almost two years ago, MTN faced the prospect of one of the world's largest corporate fines in Nigeria, threatening the very future of the company, for failing to disconnect unregistered subscribers. Since that threat, which was eventually reduced significantly on the grounds that the company would have to list its operation, MTN's shares have plunged 47%.In comparison, Vodacom, which does not have a Nigerian presence, has seen its shares decline only 16%.Indust...

For the last 13 years, I have required that my infant/toddler staff complete and send home a daily report to parents of children 2- years and younger. I believe that parents are to be informed about their child's day in verbal and written form.
I recently had a situation to occur that prompted me to update my toddler logs. In fact, the logs that I was using were over 9 years old and really need to be revised according to our program.
My previous log had very little space for teacher comments and too many lines for diapering. Also, the form only informed parents of how much the child ate at lunch time. Most of the parents seemed to be happy about the form all except for one. This parent wanted us to inform her about how much her child was drinking while in our care.
So, I thought, " Hey this is a great opportunity to revise our toddler forms, because at Learning Days, the parents opinion matters!
As I was updating my new form, I thought about you and I uploaded the form to the Child Care Business Owner Scribd page, where I upload free forms. Download your toddler form today!
Shiketa, I too have used a daily report for each child in my care. Often times our busy schedules don't always allow us to speak with parents during arrival/departure time. They are also a great help during parent meetings!
I agree Robin, sometimes its hard to keep up with the forms when you are busy and yes they are great for parent meetings.

The first glimpse of a daughter in her bridal gown is a special, emotional moment for any parent.
But in Mark and Sonia Leicester's case, the beautiful occasion was tinged with sadness and grief.
In an award-winning photo by Sean Weekly, the proud mum and dad are seen fighting back tears as they watch their daughter Sam prepare to marry her high school sweetheart.
It was a bittersweet moment, as Mark and Sonia had always imagined their eldest daughter Jenna would have been the first to walk down the aisle.
Twelve years ago, Jenna died after a fall triggered problems caused by a brain injury she'd suffered at birth. She was just 16 years old at the time.
Sam, who was four years younger than Jenna, told The Independent her wedding last July was an emotional roller coaster for the whole family.
"I felt like my parents should have seen her in a wedding dress before me, she would have been married by now for sure," she said.
Weekly, whose photo of Sam and her parents won him a Masters of Wedding Photography Award, said the feeling between the three was "palpable".
"I guess her parents were so proud but also sad in the sense that it felt to them they were losing another daughter, in a good way of course," he said, adding that he too had tears in his eyes.

Q: Get Email notifications when ec2 instance in terminated I need to receive notifications whenver my instance in terminated. I know it can be done by cloudtrail and then using sns and sqs to get email for it, if you receive event of termination.

Is there a simpler way to do that ?

Any solution will is appreciated, but I prefer is doing using boto.

A: While it is not possible to receive a notification directly from Amazon EC2 when an instance is terminated, there are a couple of ways this could be accomplished:
Auto Scaling can send a notification when an instance managed by Auto Scaling is terminated. See: Configure Your Auto Scaling Group to Send Notifications
AWS Config can also be configured to send a Simple Notification Service (SNS) notification when resources change. This would send many notifications, so you would need to inspect and filter the notifications to find the one(s) indicating an instance termination. See the SNS reference in: Set Up AWS Config Using the Console and Example Amazon SNS Notification and Email from AWS Config.
Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) can also push a message to Amazon Queueing Service (SQS), which can be easily polled with the boto python SDK.
Receiving notifications via CloudTrail and CloudWatch Logs is somewhat messier, so I'd recommend the AWS Config method.

A: Now AWS introduced "rules" Under "Events" in AWS CloudWatch. In your case, you can select EC2 as Event Selector and SNS or SQS as Targets.
https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-cloudwatch-events-track-and-respond-to-changes-to-your-aws-resources/

A: According to the AWS doc: Spot Instance Interruptions, it is possible to pool the instance-metadata in order to get an approximation of the termination time. You can build any custom monitoring solution around that.
> curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/spot/instance-action
{"action": "stop", "time": "2017-09-18T08:22:00Z"}

If the instance is not scheduled for termination  a http:400 will be returned.
