In a before-the-game interview Charlie Montoyo talked a lot about the importance of starting pitching.
The Bulls were five pitches into the game when his point was made. It only took those five pitches for Jay Buente to issue his first walk of the night. That runner got to second on a balk and to third on a ground out. Singles, a double and homer, two errors at third (one re-judged a hit later on), and the Bulls were down 6-0 in the 1st inning.
I've commented on Mr. Buente before. It looks as if a lot of time off is not helping. He last pitched on June 9. Maybe go on a shorter rotation (for another team)?
If Jay Buente wasn't any help, what about returning third baseman, Felipe Lopez? Nope, he mishandled two grounders in that same 1st inning and was 0-2 at bat.
Elsewhere it looks like that in addition to Mr. Buente, the vaunted Rays management may be about to get bitten back back more directly. Remember Cory Wade who was a Bull a couple of days ago? I was, no surprise, wrong, or at least didn't keep track. He's not pitching for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He just got his first win in his second appearance as a full-fledged New York Yankee.
Is there any good news? Well, yes there is. As Chris D pointed out a couple of minutes ago, Matt Moore, a rising young Rays prospect over with the Montgomery Biscuits (AA), pitched a complete game no-hitter yesterday. Stacy Long has the story here, here, and here. We'll probably see Mr. Moore before the end of the season. Hope so.
In the meantime, the Bulls are out of first place in the South Division for the first time since April 15.

Data Investigation: How Green is Toronto?
Shared by Cheryl To on October 22, 2020
in Namara, Public Data, Data Analysis
#ActiveTO #CycleTO #CafeTO #PhysicalDistancing. These are all familiar hashtags that we've seen over the summer in Toronto. The messaging is clear: "Get outside, but maintain physical distancing." This is sound advice, indeed. Being outside can help with promoting focus, relieving anxiety, and encouraging active lifestyles.
Given that Canadian summers are short and precious, being outside allows us to soak up the much needed vitamin D! At the same time, in light of the on-going pandemic, we must continue to stay 6 feet apart to help flatten the curve and delay and/or reduce the impact of a second wave.
Ontario has been under emergency orders for much of 2020, forcing many businesses and restaurants to either temporarily or permanently close. Many people have opted to engage in outdoor activities like cycling and using Toronto parks and facilities as a way to cope with our new reality. As a result, local parks have seen an uptick of visitors, to a point where it is almost impossible to maintain the minimum of 2m physical distance whilst enjoying a bit of fresh air.
This led me to question whether or not there is enough park space for people to safely enjoy Toronto parks and facilities?
Is Toronto as 'green' as we claim?
While it is difficult to estimate how many people will visit parks at any given time, especially now, the World Health Organization (WHO) has created some pretty clear guidelines. Specifically, the WHO recommends that each person should, at minimum, have access to 9m2 of green space, with an ideal of 50m2 of green space. Many European countries incorporate this recommendation as part of their city planning.
Given that Toronto has a reputation for being "green," how do we measure up against other major urban centres around the world?
According to the World Cities Culture Forum report, Toronto ranks 31st, with 13% of total green space in a list of 41 cities. The areas with the most green space are Oslo, Singapore, and Sydney with 68%, 47%, and 46% green space, respectively.

Source: http://www.worldcitiescultureforum.com/data/of-public-green-space-parks-and-gardens
Note: Date of information provided is from different years.
Does Toronto provide sufficient green space as recommended by the WHO? And, given that Toronto cityscape changes drastically from neighbourhood to neighbourhood, are there areas in Toronto that fare better with regards to green space? If so, where are they, and who lives there?
The use case
To start this analysis, I accessed the Toronto parks and greenspaces shapefile from the City of Toronto Open Data Portal, and the Forward Sortation Area (FSA) shapefile and population by FSA from Statistics Canada – all available through Namara (scroll to the bottom of this blog for links).
For reference, an FSA is a geographical region; it makes up the first three characters of a Canadian postcode. For example: in the postal code A0A 0A0, the FSA is A0A.
1. Does Toronto, as a city, provide the minimum recommended amount of green spaces per capita?
Toronto Green Space Per Person = Toronto Total Parks Area (m2) / Toronto Population
Toronto Green Space Per Person = 121123085m2 / 2732094
Toronto Green Space Per person = 44.33 m2
Answer: Yes! Overall, if we assume that green spaces are evenly distributed across all neighbourhoods, each person in Toronto enjoys approximately 44.33m2 of green space. However, if you have ever walked or driven around downtown Toronto, an average doesn't represent things perfectly. This leads me to my next question:
2. Is there an even distribution of green space among Toronto's land area?
At a glance, we can already see that not all parts of Toronto have the luxury of enjoying 44 m2 of green space per person. While the majority of people choosing to call Toronto home are able to enjoy more than 9 m2 of green space per person, for people living in 12 of Toronto's 96 FSAs, green space is a scarcity. The areas most starved for green space are located around Toronto's downtown core.
Below is a table of the best and worst areas in Toronto in terms of available green space:
FSA Available Green Space Population, 2016 Green Space Per Person (m2)
Best FSAs
M1X 12572830 15097 832.80
M1C 13709245 35626 384.810111
M1B 22097131 66108 334.258047
Worst FSAs
M4Y 21910 30472 0.72
M5H 2193 2005 1.093766
M4B 14312 12785 1.119437
Looking at the map, it would be easy to assume that FSAs with the highest population density are also the areas with the least green space. If this were true, FSAs with the highest population density would also be the areas with the least amount of green space. However, if we plot population density by FSA on a map, the FSAs with the highest population density do not necessarily match up with areas with the least green space:
Answer: Yes, there are pockets in Toronto that have more access to green space than others. In particular, there are several FSAs outside the downtown core that are lacking in green space, but not particularly dense. Now we have a new question to answer:
3. Who are the people living in areas with scarce green space? And what do these areas look like?
To understand a bit more about who are the people at the extreme's of Toronto's green space spectrum, I downloaded the Canada Census Profile dataset from Namara. Then, I started to paint a picture of the people living in these areas:
Demographic insight FSA with most green space FSA with least green space
Average age 37.1 years to 45.3 years 35.8 years to 41.8 years
Average size of census families 2.4 to 3.4 2.3 to 2.9
Employment ranges 54% to 74.0% 57.3% to 79.0%
Average household income $73,319 to $359,331 $67,852 to $165,070
Average number of single detached house 3581 622
Looking at the data in this way, we start to see how people living in the best and worst FSAs in terms of green space start to differ.
Answer: People living in FSAs with the most green space tend to be slightly older, with slightly larger households, and with higher average household income. But the most striking difference between the two groups is the number of single detached homes. While the greenest FSAs boast an average of 3581 single detached homes per FSA, the least green FSAs average 622.
What the data tells us about green space
Green space is essential for psychological relaxation and stress reduction, the promotion of physical activity, and the minimizing the harmful effects of urban living.
Advocates for sustainable urban planning say that it is imperative that cities follow WHO's guideline, at least 9m2 of green space per person and an ideal of 50m2 per person, because, according to the WIT paper referenced earlier, "the most liveable cities are the ones that provide the most green space for its population." The average Torontonian enjoys 44m2 of green space per person, but some areas fall far, far below that.
What does this mean for the populations in not-so-green areas? Bluntly, they're going to have to work harder to enjoy a slice of nature at a safe distance from others. As it is still best practice to maintain physical distance, Torontonians will have to get creative in how they keep active, engaged, and relaxed this winter. Maybe we'll start to see #ActiveTOintheSnow.

Brendan S. Maher
Email: brendan.maher@strismaher.com
Brendan S. Maher is a founding principal of Stris & Maher. A tenured law professor, he is one of the country's leading experts on the statutory and regulatory framework of both ERISA and the Affordable Care Act. He is also an expert on federal court procedure and evidence, as well as the law of fiduciary obligation. An active trial and appellate litigator with a national practice, he frequently serves as counsel in complex commercial disputes that involve healthcare, intellectual property, or business torts. He has handled cases where millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions, and billions of dollars have been at stake.
Mr. Maher's practice customarily involves matters that present a high degree of legal or strategic complexity. Often he is retained when the law's opacity has frustrated governments, businesses, or individuals attempting to make or defend forward-thinking or innovative choices. For example, he was retained by a multi-billion dollar technology company to investigate and develop novel compensation structures for executives and engineers; he was asked by California to evaluate the applicability of ERISA and the ACA to potential healthcare and insurance regulation; and he was retained by Vermont to defend the validity of its healthcare database.
Mr. Maher is also engaged for his ability to accurately assess fact-bound legal questions and handicap risk. He has counseled owners and executives seeking advice about the internal and external obligations of public and privately-held businesses, including with respect to insurance audits, corporate governance, intellectual property, equity compensation, employment issues, and regulatory best practices.
Mr. Maher received his J.D. from Harvard Law School and his A.B. from Stanford University, from which he graduated Phi Beta Kappa.
Mr. Maher routinely serves as lead trial or appellate counsel in a wide range of complex and high-profile disputes. The matters below are representative of his experience:
Representation of States
Mr. Maher regularly represents government entities throughout the country. He is also retained by states to provide advice on regulatory compliance and assess litigation exposure. For example:
California Department of Managed Health Care [Read more here]
California's Department of Managed Health Care retained Mr. Maher to assist in navigating the complex intersection of federal and state law governing health insurance. Specifically, Mr. Maher examined the suitability of a variety of potential regulatory approaches, in light of the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
Gobeille v. Liberty Mutual Insurance Co. [Read more here]
Our firm was retained by the State of Vermont to assist in the preparation of a petition for certiorari (Our Petition) in this important healthcare preemption case. After our petition was granted, Vermont retained our firm to continue as co-counsel on the merits before the Court. After briefing (Our Opening Brief | Our Reply) and oral argument by lead counsel, the Solicitor General of Vermont, the Court rejected our position. Justices Ginsburg and Kagan dissented (Opinions).
Dollar Gen. Corp. v. Miss. Band of Choctaw Indians [Read more here]
Stris & Maher was retained by the State of Mississippi to prepare and file an amicus brief (Our Brief) on a critical question regarding the scope of tribal jurisdiction: whether Indian tribal courts may ever adjudicate civil tort claims in suits against nonmembers. Mr. Maher was instrumental in drafting the brief, which was joined by the States of Mississippi, Colorado, North Dakota, New Mexico, Oregon, and Washington and marked the first time that any state had ever supported a finding of tribal jurisdiction in a major case before the Supreme Court. Our side prevailed before an equally divided Court.
Pension Litigation
Mr. Maher litigates pension disputes throughout the country. He is also retained by plan sponsors and their executives to provide advice on regulatory compliance and assess litigation exposure. For example:
Frommert v. Conkright [Read more here]
For nearly a decade, Mr. Maher has served as co-lead counsel for dozens of pensioners in this case against the Xerox pension plan. To date, Xerox has been ordered to pay—and has paid—well more than $16 million to plaintiffs. This epic dispute has already resulted in a published opinion by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2010 (Supreme Court Opinion | Argument Audio) as well as three published opinions by the Second Circuit, including a major victory for our clients in 2013 (Second Circuit Opinion | Argument Audio). Litigation continues in the trial court where we have filed motions seeking millions of dollars in additional pension benefits, prejudgment interest, and attorneys' fees.
LaRue v. DeWolff Boberg & Associates, Inc.
In 2006, Mr. Maher and Peter Stris persuaded the United States Supreme Court (Petition) to hear this landmark case about the rights of 401(k) account holders. In 2007, after successful briefing (Our Opening Brief) and argument (Audio), Stris & Maher obtained (Supreme Court Opinion) what the New York Times described as "one of the most important rulings in years on the meaning of the federal pension law. . . ."
Eddingston v. UBS Financial Services; Hendricks v. UBS Financial Services
In 2013, the Eastern District of Texas appointed Stris & Maher as co-lead counsel for a certified class of financial advisers seeking over $200 million that was seized by UBS. Defendants, represented by nationally recognized pension lawyers from Morgan Lewis & Bockius LLP, filed a motion to compel arbitration (Motion). After full briefing and lengthy argument by Mr. Stris in the trial court, that motion was denied (Transcript/Opinion). Defendants, represented by a new team of attorneys from Gibson Dunn & Crutcher LLP (led by the former U.S. Solicitor of Labor), opposed class certification (UBS Opposition). After full briefing (Our Reply) and another lengthy argument by Mr. Stris, the trial court certified the class. After briefing (UBS Brief | Our Fifth Circuit Brief) and argument (Audio) of Defendants' interlocutory appeal, the Fifth Circuit ordered plaintiffs to arbitrate their claims.
Healthcare Litigation
Mr. Maher litigates healthcare disputes throughout the country. He is also retained by medical providers, government officials, and employers to provide advice on regulatory compliance and assess litigation exposure. For example:
Sovereign v. Health Net [Read more here]
Mr. Maher represents Sovereign Health Group, one of the largest independent behavioral treatment enterprises in the nation, in this case against Health Net. Health Net has refused to pay Sovereign fair compensation for drug treatment services it rendered to Health Net insureds, and Sovereign is seeking contractual and equitable relief under state law. (Press)
Montanile v. Board of Trustees [Read more here]
After firm lawyers preserved the key legal issue through briefing and argument in the Eleventh Circuit, Mr. Maher and other firm lawyers persuaded the United States Supreme Court (Petition) to hear this important case about the scope of reimbursement rights available to federally regulated health insurance plans. In an 8-1 decision authored by Justice Thomas (Opinion), the Court adopted the position advanced by our firm's merits briefing (Our Opening Brief | Our Reply) and argument (Argument Audio).
Dual Diagnosis et al. v. Anthem et al. [Read more here]
Stris & Maher is lead trial counsel for plaintiffs, successful addiction treatment facilities, in this multi-million lawsuit against dozens of Blue Cross entities and welfare plans they insure or administer. The lawsuit alleges that Blue Cross has engaged in a nationwide scheme to injure out of network providers in violation of both federal and California law. On May 31, 2016, the Central District of California held a four-hour hearing on defendants' coordinated motions to dismiss the operative complaint. (Complaint | Motion to Dismiss | Opposition to Motion)
Parties Confidential
Mr. Maher and other firm attorneys represent a group of renowned substance abuse treatment facilities in connection with their complex and high-value disputes with health insurance companies. Mr. Maher also advises these facilities on a variety of business matters with significant legal components, including revenue cycle management and regulatory compliance.
Other Insurance Litigation
Mr. Maher litigates other insurance disputes throughout the country. For example:
Heimeshoff v. Hartford Life & Acc. Ins. Co.
In 2013, because of his ERISA and insurance expertise, Mr. Maher was asked to serve as the petitioner's co-counsel in this case about parties' ability to contractually establish statutes of limitations under ERISA. (Our Brief | Respondents' Brief | Our Reply | Opinion)
Sanborn Alder v. Cigna Group Insurance
Mr. Maher was retained to brief a Fifth Circuit appeal in a life insurance dispute following dismissal in district court. He obtained a favorable settlement after persuading the Department of Labor to file amicus brief in support of client. (Our Fifth Circuit Brief | DOL's Motion | NEBCI's Brief | LINA Brief | CBCA's Brief)
U.S. Airways, Inc. v. McCutchen
Mr. Maher served as co-counsel representing Mr. McCutchen before the Supreme Court. At issue in McCutchen was the degree to which certain equitable defenses could limit a plan's ability to recoup money from a beneficiary. After determining that equitable defenses could be limited by a plan's language, the Court held that McCutchen's plan entitled the defendant to obtain recoupment of the monies subject to a "common fund" reduction for the effort McCutchen's attorney expended in collecting money from the tortfeasor who caused McCutchen's injuries in the first place. (Our Brief)
The Energy Conservation Group, LLC, et al. v. Applied Underwriters, Inc., et al.
A well-known regional business purchased an insurance product that failed to comply with state law and subjected the company to the very exposure it sought to insure. Litigation ensued. Because the insurer is owned by one of nation's most successful financial companies, the company brought in Stris & Maher as lead counsel to level the playing field.
Mr. Maher supervises junior firm lawyers in the representation of both plaintiffs and defendants in a wide variety of employment disputes involving issues such as wrongful termination, retaliation, discrimination, and harassment. In cases involving senior executives, significant damages, or important precedent, Mr. Maher sometimes takes a leading role. Representative examples include:
Halliwell v. Gordon [Read more here]
Stris & Maher represented the former CEO of Bumble & bumble in a New York state court dispute over compensation arising from the $120+ million sale of the company to Estee Lauder. The case was initially dismissed. Mr. Maher argued and obtained reversal of that dismissal before the Second Department. On remand, within days of deposing the defendant, the firm obtained a highly favorable confidential settlement.
In conjunction with Elizabeth Brannen, Mr. Maher often litigates complex intellectual property cases in courts throughout the country. For example:
Smith v. Barnes & Noble, Inc., et al. [Read more here]
In 2012, Mr. Maher and a team of firm attorneys began defending Barnes & Noble in this lawsuit alleging Copyright and Lanham Act violations. In late 2015, the district court granted summary judgment, dismissing the case in its entirety. See e.g., Kurt Orzeck, Barnes & Noble Beats IP Suit Over Cloud-Stored E-Books, Nov. 2, 2015 (subscription required). In late 2016, the Second Circuit affirmed. See e.g., Bill Donahue, 2nd Circ. Dodges 'Novel' Cloud Storage Copyright Questions, Oct. 6, 2016 (subscription required).
Mr. Maher litigates disputes involving both public and private companies in trial and appellate courts throughout the country. For example:
Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner & Smith, Inc. v. Manning [Read more here]
In May, 2016, the firm prevailed before the U.S. Supreme Court in this important securities jurisdiction case. Mr. Maher served as Counsel of Record for a group of investors who sued several major financial institutions in New Jersey state court for violations of New Jersey law. The suit alleges that the defendants' illegal practices precipitated a loss of over $800 million in shareholder value. Led by Merrill Lynch, the financial institutions argued that the federal securities laws required the plaintiffs to sue in federal court. The Court disagreed, holding unanimously that the case should proceed in state court. (Merits Brief | Opinion)
Other Notable Cases
Microsoft v. Baker [Read more here]
Mr. Maher serves as Counsel of Record for plaintiffs, a putative class of consumers, in this design defect case alleging that Microsoft's popular Xbox360 console scratches game discs during ordinary use. The case, which presents important questions about class action procedure, has been fully briefed (Our Brief) and will be argued by Peter Stris in October, 2016.
Mr. Maher and other firm lawyers developed a comprehensive constitutional challenge to state laws limiting the ability of non-residents to participate on equal terms in the local marijuana marketplace. Mr. Maher's work helped convince legislators to pass or amend laws eliminating the challenged restrictions for non-resident individuals and businesses.

Q: How do I create a column for json_table that stores more than 32767 bytes? I am mapping json to table in oracle using json_table. I want to store one of the fields (excel_data) in a column of type clob as the size of that field goes beyond 32767. However, json_table does not seem to accept clob. How do I solve this? I am using Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition Release 12.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production. is there any other way except updating the version?
  SELECT
        version,
        excel_data

In commercial real estate you must market yourself effectively and directly as a top real estate agent. The agency must also do the same when it comes to attracting the right business and the listing opportunities.
For this reason you need to track the figures relative to the market and your local area. When your figures change, you know that you are getting somewhere, and your market takes on a whole new aspect.
It is no secret that the commercial property market is changing regularly and quickly today. In many respects, listings are taking longer to sell or lease unless the correct marketing strategy is coupled with the appropriate price or rental. Every marketing dollar spent should be carefully considered to attract the right level of enquiry. Here are some tips from our Newsletter for Agents.
We can sometimes get distracted in the industry with the things that take us away from the true facts and activity. In simple terms we need to know what is going on, and what the trends are saying.
You can track the right figures that will help you in this process. Here are some ideas to help.
The number of listings available for sale will change throughout the year. There will be some seasonal pressures on listings when it comes to sales results. Track the listings and sales on a monthly basis so you know what is coming and going from the market.
The number of listings available for lease will change based on the supply and demand for occupied space. The number of vacancies will also be influenced by the levels of business sentiment through the local community. Track the vacancies and the vacancy rates across your area on a monthly basis. Those vacancies will have some influence on the incentives to be provided to potential tenants.
Time on market for sale or lease will vary by property type and location. When you understand a listing, you can relate to any factors of time delay that may occur in achieving a sale or a lease.
Quality properties will usually move quickly in any market. Average and below average properties will usually stay on the market for a very long time. That then says that overpriced and average properties create limited enquiry and could be on the market for months if not years. Top agents tend to focus on quality properties as a priority. They also focus on exclusive listings. You can do the same.
The number of enquiries coming in to your office each week will vary by salesperson and property type. That being said, you should still track the number of enquiries coming in to your office as that will give you some trending that will help you with marketing and listing.
The marketing results you get from each listing campaign will be useful to understand. Some aspects of marketing will be more successful than others. There is a fine balance between marketing results and marketing costs. When you know what works, you can understand what the best value is when it comes to the marketing spend. The client can then be suitably briefed on the best marketing campaign to attract the best level of enquiry.
On a personal basis you should be tracking the number of listings that you have on an open and an exclusive basis. You should also be tracking the levels of commission that you receive from your settlements over time.
When you understand what the figures are doing, the commercial real estate industry becomes a little bit more relative and brings you more opportunity. The figures can tell you where to focus your efforts of prospecting, listing, and negotiating.

IT Digest: iPhone SE, new File Explorer, Skype UWP app, interactive Live Tiles for Windows 10
This week on 10Alert: Apple takes the stage at the Town Hall Theater in Cupertino to unveil the new 4-inch iPhone SE, a new 9.7-inch iPad Pro, and new bands for the Apple Watch. The computer giant also announced iOS 9.3, a new Apple TV update, and Apple showed off Liam, a new disassemble robot.
Recently, Microsoft rolled out Windows 10 build 14291 to the Fast ring of updates and we went hands-on with preview on a video highlighting the new Microsoft Extensions, the redesigned Maps app, the new Feedback Hub app, and the new improvements on the Settings app.
Peter Skillman, General Manager of Core UX at Microsoft, confirmed that the company is working on a "total update" for File Explorer and hints it might also include tabs — one the most requested features on File Explorer for years.
Since the beginning Skype included the ability to send messages and make voice and video calls on a single application. Then on Windows 10, the app got broken down into three separate apps, something that works on phone, but it doesn't offer the experience on larger screens. As a result, Microsoft is now announcing that is building a new Skype Universal app for Windows 10 that once again unifies the core functionalities on a single app, and it'll soon release to Insiders.
Here are a few screenshots of the Skype Universal Windows Platform App Preview for Windows 10 from a leaked version giving us a glimpse on what to expect.
While there are only a few extensions available for Microsoft Edge, developers are already porting some of their own. This week I created a list of the official and unofficial extensions you can try right now.
Microsoft's Channel9 website hints that Live Tiles will soon be updated on Windows 10. According to the available information, the software giant plans to make Live Tiles more interactive and capable. Furthermore, future updates of the operating system will also include improved toast notifications.
Windows 10 build 14295 for PC and Mobile rolls to Insiders through the Fast ring of updates, but the new Redstone preview doesn't include any new features. Instead, the company is delivering a number of bug fixes and improvements.
The April lineup of free games with Gold for Xbox One and Xbox 360 get announced. For the month of April, Microsoft will be making available four free games, which combined will save users over $100.
This week the March system update for Xbox One rolls out to everyone. The new update brings the ability for users to purchase Xbox 360 games directly from the Xbox One dashboard, there are new improvements on party chat, video playback, and the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller gets a new firmware update.
If you missed any of the new stories, you can catch up with everything that happened this week and past articles here.

Need web illustration or infographics?
Illustrations and infographics are a great way to get instant visual engagement, but they require clarity, purpose and accuracy to shine and stand out from the rest.
We live in an age of information overload and short attention spans.
We're not going to suggest that visual solutions are perfect for everything. If you really want to delve into a subject then you want in-depth data and well-worded explanations, but can you expect people to work through all of that to get a quick overview? This is especially true online where people have more of a tendency to skim information and scan for relevance and explanation.
We humans are set up to be visual. Studies show that you remember up to 80% of what you see, 20% of what you read and only 10% of what you hear. These things are also shareable in the modern age – when was the last time someone shared a set of data tables with you on Facebook? Images are easy to post and repost. Creating artwork and infographics in your own style also helps create a strong image of your brand or product.
We can work to a variety of styles because we use lots of different specialists but under one set of art direction. Working in this way allows us to to harmoniously create a full integrated package for you making it easy for people to see what you're all about as well as providing a seamless customer experience. Be it web icons, web design or illustrations for print; It's not all about eye candy, it's about creating work designed to to work well, be memorable and informative and create a cohesive identity for you and your products.
Creative Freedom executed on our icon project to a high quality level. They responded well to feedback and turned around what few revisions we requested very quickly. Getting to the finish line on the icons was painless. I recommend their services, which are not only excellent but also competitively priced.
Thank you for the work you have done for us. The new and updated icons for our product has been very well received. Your Team at Creative Freedom has always had a sense of urgency and an ability to give 110%, just when it was needed. It feels as if you are part of our team. We will definitely be using you again!

1) Set Font-Style of border Title to bold (or italic or whatever) without affecting the other items contains within the panel; I found that if I want to do this now then I set the Font-Style for the panel and then have to set each item within the panel to not be bold. It would be far better if there was a Title-Font-Style (and size/colour) property for the panel.
3) Change the size of the space on the inside of the border to be larger or small; for some panels the borders tend to look to be too close to the panel content so it would be useful to have a Border-Margin property or something similar.
Hi Craig, One of my colleagues will give the exact answer to this question but I suspect what the asnwere might be and I just wanted to chip in really short. The answer will contain CSS file manipulation. Next, you will say you'd rather do these things inside Formspider without resorting to CSS. :-). Here is the thing though. If we keep following this path, we'd have to reinvent CSS in Formspider. :-). This is something we are trying to avoid. CSS, (albeit a problematic technology itself ), is de-facto standard for UI styling.
Replicating it in Formspider would be very time-consuming (CSS is very rich) and produce very little value to our customers. So, we have a very few attributes that help you style your fonts, background color etc...but anything more complex we leave the task to CSS, which is actually best practice in Web development.
Thanks for your response; whilst I see where you are coming from and I know that CSS is a standard way to alter the visual appearance in web development, I do still think that for some of the basic things I've asked for above it would be nice if FS supported them directly; for really complex or unusal visual changes then I totally agree that this can be achieved by doing things in CSS.
After all, one of the big selling points about FS is that you only need to know PL/SQL, if you have to start delving into CSS for simple things like this then you really need to know CSS as well plus it also means you are stepping outside of the FS paradigm.
Based on the "just use CSS" argument then if one was a purest then you would not really allow font-sizes, styles or colours to be changed in FS at all, it would all be done from CSS and so if you are support some visual attributes then it makes sense to me to support a few more perhaps.
As it relates to setting the Font Style/Size of a border title, then I think this is certainly something that is lacking because setting the font at panel level sets everything the panel contains and it would be very common for a border title to be in bold whilst the items it contains would be plan.
One idea to help keep the "developer" inside the IDE might be to include a facility within the IDE that makes it easier to tweak certain aspects of the CSS or at least have CSS section on the left of the IDE that allow you to open the CSS script in an IDE tab just like you can for the UI XML.
Another thing that might be useful (if you can't do this already) it to be able to ship an application with multiple CSS's and then within the code provide an API to switch the CSS based on some user interaction or context; for example a user could choose their preferred "skin" or "theme" for an application or the application could change its look and feel based on which part of a business is using the application.
Also, some documentation for the FS CSS would also prove useful I think; just some basic info to help make alternations to it easier.
Yes sure, I see your point and will definitely take it into consideration when we decide what to do in the next releases.
The difficulty is what part of CSS should be supported by FS is not obvious. There is no clear line we are trying to get to. Our customers and us are the ones drawing the line. So it is feedback like this that improves the CSS support in Formspider. In the past, we've added a few features to Formspider CSS support based on customer feedback (like the styleClass attribute).
By the way, you can ship an application with multiple CSS's and the users of the application can pick what they want on the fly or the developer can set it based on any criteria. There must be a thread in this forum showing how to implement this. I'll paste the link here when I find it.
I see the issue in terms of where to draw the line; I think just the basic visual appearance is as far as you need to go, if you can set the font-size of one element then you should be able to set the font-size of another element (the border Title).
Do all visual controls support the styleClass attrbiute?
2,3) Not possible. Unfortunately these are hard coded in fs.
With 2 and 3 not being possible because they are hardcoded into FS, is this something that might be supported in the future (either in FS or via CSS)?
Sure it might be in the future but it's not the priority right now.
I've tried cellspacing already for a tableLayout but this does the external spacing whereas what I want is the internal spacing on the inside of a titled border.


DUSHANBE, August 16, 2016, Asia-Plus – Defense Ministry delegations from the member nations of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) have gathered in the Armenian capital of Yerevan for the CSTO defense ministers' meeting that is being held there today.
Tajikistan is represented at the meeting by Deputy Defense Minister, Colonel Abdulhoshim Ghulomzoda, an official source at the Ministry of Defense (MoD) told Asia-Plus in an interview.
According to him, the meeting is focused on issues related to functioning and development of the collective security system, measures to improve activities of the CSTO Unified Staff, and perspective planning of military cooperation between the CSOT member nations.
Besides, the meeting participants are discussing creation of basic scientific and research institutions in the fields of air and anti-missile defense, as well as military heraldic symbols, the source said.
The CSTO Secretary General Nikolai Bordyuzha and the CSTO Unified Staff Chief, Colonel-General Anatoly Sidorov, are also participating in the session.
The regional security organization was initially formed in 1992 for a five-year period by the members of the CIS Collective Security Treaty (CST) -- Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan, which were joined by Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Belarus the following year. A 1994 treaty reaffirmed the desire of all participating states to abstain from the use or threat of force, and prevented signatories from joining any "other military alliances or other groups of states" directed against members states. The CST was then extended for another five-year term in April 1999, and was signed by the presidents of Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and Tajikistan. In October 2002, the group was renamed as the CSTO. Uzbekistan that suspended its membership in 1999 returned to the CSTO again in 2006 after it came under international criticism for its brutal crackdown of antigovernment demonstrations in the eastern city of Andijon in May 2005. On June 28, 2012, Uzbekistan announced that it has suspended its membership of the CSTO, saying the organization ignores Uzbekistan and does not consider its views. The CSTO is currently an observer organization at the United Nations General Assembly.

Q: Prevent knockout textInput data-bind from updating the field value while typing I have this (very simplified) HTML:
Quantity: <input name="quantity" type="number" data-bind="textInput: quantity"/>
Euros: <input name="wholeNumber" type="number" data-bind="textInput: wholeNumber"/>

And this (also very simplified) Knockout model:
function ViewModel() {
    self = this;
    cents = ko.observable();
    quantity = ko.observable();
    wholeNumber = ko.computed({
        read: function() {
            return (self.cents() / 100).toFixed(2);
        },
        write: function(value) {
            self.cents(Math.round(value * 100));
        }
    });
}

ko.applyBindings(ViewModel);

See this fiddle for a running example: https://jsfiddle.net/KHFn8/5569/
When I run this code the value of the quantity does not refresh while typing, but the value of the wholeNumber does change after each keystroke.
I have two questions about this:

*

*Since both fields have a two way binding why does this only happen in the case of the computed observable (wholeNumber), but not in the case of a normal observable?

*How can I prevent the updating of the field from happening while I'm still typing. I can use wholeNumber.extend({ rateLimit: { timeout: 500, method: "notifyWhenChangesStop" } });, but that's an suboptimal solution.

A: As an answer to your first question on why it does happen with computed binds but not with normal observables:
Let's consider wholeNumber binding. Every time the value of the input field changes, dom-to-computable binding executes setter write, which in his turn updates cents; because the computed wholeNumber depends on cents observable it is subscribed to all its changes, so the change of cents causes computable-to-dom binding to execute read and update the input (and moves the cursor to the the end of the input field). Here is a slightly updated jsfiddle, with logging of getter/setter calls (https://jsfiddle.net/mdydarfb/)
In the case of an ordinary observable, every change of the input field updates only the state of the binded observable without that "chain reaction".
As an answer to the second qustion:
If I understood the problem properly, "turning the tables" on your original code would be sufficient: just make cents pureComputed and wholeNumber observable and bind them together - http://jsfiddle.net/uvmqk4sd/1

A: *

*About quantity property. If you want to update it when wholeNumber is changing you need to change your wholeNumber computed definition. Because now it changes only cents:
write: function(value) {
    self.cents(Math.round(value * 100));
}

*Regarding wholeNumber.extend({ rateLimit: { timeout: 500, method: "notifyWhenChangesStop" } }); Why do you think it's suboptimal? It's "official" recipe from the documentation - http://knockoutjs.com/documentation/rateLimit-observable.html

A: Becauase it has any process in computed function about quantity. You must add quantity in function. For example;
wholeNumber = ko.computed({
    read: function() {
        return (self.cents() / 100 * self.quantity()).toFixed(2);
    },
    write: function(value) {
        self.cents(Math.round(value * 100));
    }
});

Lorri Vodi Rupard: "These Heart Things are Unpredictable"
It's the alarm you feel at your own palpitating heart upon it registering the news that someone else's child is found face down on the blacktop.
And can the weary get no peace? Your husband interrupts a seven-day trip to Canada on day 3 at 4 AM.
Yes, you will board an early AM flight out of here and no you don't mean to under-react. You barely went to bed, it's the fatigue talking. The flying. Though you wonder if it's the taking half a Klonipin afterward instead.
Then out of some blue the abnormal rhythm resumes. You look in the mirror.
For real? It's been 24 years.
This never would've happened if you'd just stayed asleep.
It was a similar thing at 15-scary and embarrassing. You were walking to the drugstore nearly late for work; punctuality your most pressing issue. The constant watch checking and general anxiety seems so silly in review but it was all you knew about reliability back when you were trying so hard to do everything right.
You'd just rounded the corner past Sir John A. MacDonald Elementary where you paused upon seeing your little sister's artwork scotch taped to the classroom window facing outward. "Amy" her name was scribbled in messy crayonmanship and you could make out a family-yours ostensibly but with an extra child thrown in or large boy doll in a striped shirt wearing uneven platform shoes, his hair bright blue.
Then the regular pressing in your chest became this unfamiliar scampering rodent, a sputtering, something befitting an old jalopy. You froze in terror. Your eyes got dark and wide---you didn't know what was happening but anything this startling was bound to be significant. Was something about to end? You were alone and helpless so you flew like a sparrow doubling back toward home trying to elude the emergency but with no way out and no presence of mind to get there. Too far. Instead you ran toward a strange door not knowing what you would say- can't think- when it was opened and the man in his housecoat who answered, looked down at you and blinked.
While he was blinking, Mark was still dead or what have you---not yet alive. Unborn. Negative 20 years. Neither of you knew of his dormancy then let alone the day when in his senior year he'd announce with finality to the class that he'd decided he was going to be a cardiac surgeon. Going to be. Like the intro to a magic trick. That's the funny thing, the way it sounded like he'd landed a role just as if the title was a character one struck and all that was needed was a convincing costume.
And he bought the costume for $18 online. He was so hopeful; so tragic with zeal. You can still picture his scrawny frame appearing at the door one morning, bright and chipper, smiling like the man of the hour, like he was well on his way though he was just drowning in a fresh crisp lab coat and you yourself, his teacher, promptly turning your face to hide your lip curling upward over the sweet geekiness of it all, the way the unsullied cotton, chafed against his pale knuckles and also drooped too low past mid-calf like a factory second as if the one-size-fits-all algorithm had lost its marbles. It broke your heart; he looked like a little boy with a humongous dream.
This episode though. This one goes on and worries you and should've stopped like the others but seems to want to bookend an era. The flutter, insistent enough, makes you pace through the night-it's precisely why you can't sit still in a chair or go drink some tea. It's why you can't cry. You can't even think to cry. What creature are you with a heart so weak but impervious that it's Ziplocked and torpid-a frozen chunk on the counter yet an irregular nuisance? Your body is not yourself; you know this. It's a genetic mutation that could turn into a freak incident at the drop of a hat.
You take the other half a Klonipin and reexamine every scenario over the course of an hour until it finally stops. Perhaps a protein deficiency in primordial life. Mother swore you ate nothing but Cheerios for 24 months. Dry. Maybe it's her fault. She forgot the folic acid. But she didn't know anything, nor did any doctor pre-Google. Good Lord, she almost took Thalidomide. And slept you on your belly.
Once home, you dress for the occasion and are off put by funereal gaudiness. But aren't they usually like this and you're here for the parents because no one can even imagine. It's a small Southern town and fairly bourgeois though Christians ought to believe he's Mark nevertheless and exultant despite this early transition. People are crying and wailing, some of it sincere. Your intolerance starts to show.
He was your prized student; an earnest bright thing. Beloved. But these proceedings as well-intended and necessary as they may be--the two-hour line to stand there and gawk at something Mark long abandoned, the shell of a boy propped up like ad food, the despair about his short, intense life and everyone here his best friend, ever--these theatrics estrange you from his heart. The one he complained to you about a week before his passing.
You told him you didn't sleep well and to be prepared for a crappy lesson and he told you that at least you didn't have what he had: chest pain all night. It was the precise reason he hadn't gone for a run. You dismissed it as stress; you would know. You said he was far too young for anything really bad to happen. Then you booked him to tutor your daughter because she was failing. Physics. For which you still owe him ten bucks. You're thinking too much though and listening too hard to your own chest. Then you overhear a mother predicting with savor that her son will likely die young too. It baffles your brain that all this should've been hers.
Your husband, the cardiologist stands by the parents with ready assurance. Mark was alone when he died but it's nobody's fault. These heart things are unpredictable. If it wasn't this week or next year, it would've eventually happened. No one could have done anything different.
Jim Dine was born June 16, 1935, in Cincinnati, Ohio. He studied at night at the Cincinnati Art Academy during his senior year of high school and then attended the University of Cincinnati, the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and Ohio University, Athens, from which he received his B.F.A. in 1957. Dine moved to New York in 1959 and soon became a pioneer creator of "Happenings", together with Allan Kaprow, and Robert Whitman. He exhibited at the Judson Gallery, New York, in 1958 and 1959, and his first solo show took place at the Reuben Gallery, New York, in 1960.
Dine is closely associated with the development of Pop art in the early 1960s. Frequently he affixed everyday objects, such as tools, rope, shoes, neckties, and other articles of clothing, and even a bathroom sink, to his canvases. Characteristically, these objects were Dine's personal possessions. This autobiographical content was evident in Dine's early Crash series of 1959-60 and appeared as well in subsequent recurrent themes and images, such as the Palettes, Hearts, and bathrobe Self-Portraits. Dine has also made a number of three-dimensional works and environments, and is well-known for his drawings and prints. He has written and illustrated several books of poetry.

Lately, Captain Bertani of HMS Cornwall (74) North Sea station, has written a program that will translate typed text into 1806 Popham Telegraph Signal Flags!
The Doctor was lowered into the boat alongside Acasta, his chests and baggage already having been placed near the stern. Shortly thereafter, the order was given and the sailors let the oars splash down into the water. These men were from another ship and the Doctor realized quickly that he did not feel the same sort of warmth and comradery with them as he normally did with the Acastas. They were a mean looking lot.
As the little boat pulled away, the Doctor could see Captain Freymann busy on the quarterdeck with the signal midshipman, while he could not hear them, it was clear, even from this distance that the Captain was issuing orders. Officers and men lined up in little clusters along the Starboard rail to watch as their surgeon departed. A few minutes later, the midshipman had the flags in order and they were hoisted skyward. As the flags took their message aloft in the breeze, the men along the rail gave a great cheer, raising their hats and waving farewell.
The Doctor, flush with unexpected emotion, squinted as he looked the flags over, then turning to the man at the tiller he asked, "Do you happen to know what those flags say sir?"
Where is the Doctor going you ask? Better review his papers on the subject.
Now, I would ask you bid me fair travels and good luck in my secret endeavours, for the time has come for the plan that was laid out some time back to be set in motion.
Want of time is, I think, the general complaint of all letter-writers, and it shall be mine upon this day as I depart from the relative comfort of the Acasta to undertake my covert mission for the Admiralty. I have struggled with my own conscience over it, but have finally resolved myself that it must be done, the good of the many outweighing the needs of the one. But I must confess it is a difficult thing to find yourself the 'one' in question whose needs are outweighed.
Never the less, I go forward in my beliefs, to do my duty for King and Country, therefore I shall contrive to be at leisure to pay these final respects to you, my dear friends. I shall not now pretend that my mission into the heart of the 'Lion's Den' will not be fraught with peril. War with one's neighbor is always a dangerous business, the covert sort doubly so. It is my sincere hope that the blow I deliver will be the final one required to put an end to England's never ending war with France.
As is my custom, I shall keep my journal whilst in the field, and transcribe it here for you, my dear friends, upon the occasion of my return. Should I not be so fortunate, Heaven forbid, I have left several letters in the care of Captain Freymann to be deliver'd to my wife and daughters and my man of business in London who will take care of my meager debts and arrange my financial affairs.
The little vial of 'instant death', whose formula was recommended to me by a medical colleague who occasionally has business along the intelligence line, is prepared and ready to strike its blow to tyranny. God send it a happy meeting with its intended recipient!
Watch for pictures of the Doctor from the coming 'secret mission', see if you can spot the green bottle!
Things got out of control quickly when an American mob came by the Acasta camp to cause trouble. The men of the Acasta fought valiantly, but being outnumbered 3 to 1 they were no match for the mob.

Q: Creating a jquery live preview from a table I have a html table with a row that looks like:

    <input type="checkbox" name="check[]" value="265">
    265
    NO MATCH
    http://stackoverflow.com/
    No
    0
    f79a8316891

I am trying to build a jquery function that will open up a preview window if I pass it over a URL in table cell. So far I have:
$( "td" ).hover( function() {
  var contents = $( this ).html() ;
  if (contents.match("^http")) {
    $( this ).append( $( " ***" ) );

  }
}, function() {
  $( this ).find( "span:last" ).remove();
});

I have found a jquery plugin https://github.com/alanphoon/jquery-live-preview and have got it working in my view, using their example code.
It appears however, that in the example you need to have a link in the html of the form:
Hover over to preview, click to link!/

I'm not exactly sure how best to approach dynamically turning :
http://stackoverflow.com/

into:
Hover over to preview, click to link!/

and back again with the hover function. Should it be done in place within the table or somewhere else in the html?

A: Not sure this is the cleanest approach, but it does what you've asked. As CBroe suggested in his comment, this might not work if the plugin initializes while the link isn't there though.

$('.preview-link').hover(
  function() {
    this.innerHTML = '' + this.innerText + '';
  }, function() {
    var text = this.firstChild;
    this.removeChild(this.firstChild);
    this.innerText = text;
  });

      <input type="checkbox" name="check[]" value="265">

Three Days Left for Forte and the Bears
By Sam Householder@SamHouseholder Jul 13, 2012, 3:00pm CDT
Share All sharing options for: Three Days Left for Forte and the Bears
CHICAGO, IL - OCTOBER 16: Matt Forte #22 of the Chicago Bears runs during play against the Minnesota Vikings at Soldier Field on October 16, 2011 in Chicago, Illinois. (Photo by Tasos Katopodis /Getty Images)
This is it, this weekend is the final three days left that the Bears have to sign Matt Forte to a long-term extension, otherwise they have to wait and hope he reports to camp and starts the season and that they can work something out way down the road. Chris Mortensen tweeted yesterday to a fan's question, saying he thinks the Bears come together for a deal. Now he has way more insider knowledge than any of us so I hope he is right, but I doubt it.
To me, the whole thing is over. Both sides seem ridiculously entrenched in their positions and Forte seems so darn bitter about it. He has pretty much whined so often as to fall out of favor with many Bears fans. A year ago the majority of Bears fans were in the "Pay Da Man" camp, now I think most are to the "Shut Up and Play" area.
With so little time left I think it seems far-fetched to believe a deal is going to get done. Forte has gone on and on about wanting respect and to get his money and blah blah blah.
The fact is, a deal could get done. All it takes is for one or both sides to sit down and find a common ground, the Bears up the ante a couple million, Forte and his agent come down a couple million and badda-bing, badda-boom it's all over.
I still think the deal that would be perfect for Forte is the Marshawn Lynch deal. $31 million, $18 million guaranteed, or at least, in that ballpark. However, Forte thinks he's better than Lynch which is what's problematic.
I think Forte will show up and play for the Bears. I don't think he'll report to camp on time, but I think he will report when he feels he's "made his point" or whatever.
In the last month or so, Forte has said that the sides were at least talking and that there was something going on, but even then he didn't seem optimistic. Forte has seemed to go back and forth on the talks with the Bears about as much as Dwight Howard has on whether he wants to stay or go from Orlando.
All that negativity aside though, in the final three days here, things could get done. The NFL sometimes likes to work into the 25th hour. Last minute deals that save the day happen all the time.
So I could very well post this and in two hours the team announces a new deal. I doubt it, but it could happen.
What do you think? Will there be a new deal this weekend between the Bears and Forte?


Link: Lung ultrasound findings in congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
Corsini I1, Parri N2, Coviello C3, Leonardi V3, Dani C3,4.
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) occurs in approximately 1 in 2500 to 5000 infants. The use of lung ultrasound (LUS) for its diagnosis has been reported in only two case reports. The aim of this study was to report the LUS pattern of CDH in a case series of infants with respiratory distress. This case series was part of a cohort enrolled in a larger prospective observational study. LUS was performed at the point-of-care during the first 24 h of life of the neonates and its operation time was measured. Seven cases (six left and one right CDH) were diagnosed. We found that the pattern of LUS for CDH diagnosis includes (1) partial absence of the hyperechoic line representing the normal diaphragmatic profile, (2) partial absence of the pleural line in the affected hemithorax, (3) absence of A lines in the affected area, (4) presence of multi-layered area with hyperechoic contents in motion (normal gut), and (5) possible presence of parenchymatous organs inside the thorax (i.e., liver or spleen).Conclusion: A description of LUS pattern in infants with CDH is provided. LUS at the point-of-care may allow the prompt diagnosis of CDH and this is particularly useful in cases of missed prenatal diagnosis. What is Known: • Congenital diaphragmatic hernia occurs in approximately 1 in 2500 to 5000 infants but the use of lung ultrasound for its diagnosis has been reported in only two case reports. What is New: • Research provided a description of lung ultrasound pattern in infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. • Lung ultrasound at the point-of-care may allow a prompt diagnosis of congenital diaphragmatic hernia, particularly useful in cases of missed prenatal diagnosis.

The Saeco Intuita is one of the lower end machines. That doesn't mean the coffee is low end. The espressos are great, the longo is lovely and the steam pipe helps creating a wonderful cappuccino. With dedicated buttons for every function and easy to access compartments for water, beans and residue the machine is very friendly to use. In short: I love it!
Here´s how to do a Saeco Intuita factory Reset, for example in case you don't want to descale your machine yet, although the machine is asking for it.
You have to turn the machine off using the on-off switch in the back.
Press 'steam' and 'calc clean' in the same time while you turn it on from the same switch.
When you turn it on again the settings will be the ones from the factory.
leendert, what can I do when all four alarm lights light up. resetting, as advised by the help desk does not help.
Would you the on/off button somewhere else? Or maybe you could try unplugging/plugging the power cord?
What if your machine comes without the on/off button on the back!?
