Q: Incremeting integer precision in C++ before the decimal point (e.g. 7 --> 007) Yes you read that right, Im looking for a way of incrementing integer's precision before the decimal point. The reason is irrelevant and would be long to explain. Specifically, I want to increment it to the hundreds, for instance:

*

*1 --> 001

*7 --> 007

*27 --> 027

*358 --> 358

...and so on and so forth.
Im aware there's a way of just programing this, but I presume there's a way of doing this automatically, am I right? Just like the "setprecision()" command, but the way around as you can see. I've looked up for this a long time but all previous questions just regard the precision after the decimal point.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me in this weird request.

A: I wrote something like this a short while back.
I'm not saying this is perfect but you get the idea.
Use recursion:
int someNumber = 235;
int number = someNumber;
int minDigits = 5;
int actualDigits = 0;

string intString = "";

int digitCount = 0;

while (number > 0)
{
    number /= 10;
    actualDigits ++;
}

intString = itoa( someNumber );

while (actualDigits < minDigits)
{
    intString = string("0") + intString;
    actualDigits++;
}

now intString will be "00235"


Becky Lynch, who is currently suspended on WWE television due to her refusal to have a (worked) left knee injury checked, is back on Monday's Raw in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
As mentioned there, last week on Raw, Becky attacked Stephanie McMahon when she was told she had to get her leg checked. There was also a moment where Stephanie was trying to defend herself and she kicked Lynch in the injured left knee, which was played up a lot on Smackdown.
On Smackdown, Lynch emerged through the crowd, was not held back by security at all even though she's suspended and was taunted by Charlotte Flair. Triple H showed up, told Becky to leave and when Becky asked Hunter how Stephanie was, he fired back at her. Hunter said he thinks Becky is scared to get her knee checked and she's scared of Rousey.
No matches have been announced for Raw as of this writing, but there will likely be something announced in the next day or two as usual on the weekend.
TJRWrestling: I thought both Lynch segments were good with Triple H's promo being the best of them all. I think suspension storylines are lame and lack believability in today's wrestling world, but it's a tactic WWE has used for decades to get sympathy for the face wrestlers. The same thing happens with an injury angle.
Since they are saying that the McMahon Family is inviting Lynch to Raw, maybe this week she'll get to beat up Vince and/or Shane McMahon too!
I have joked for weeks that WWE is using the "Stone Cold 101 Booking Playbook" with Lynch. Beating up the McMahons is what Stone Cold did, especially Vince. Perhaps she will destroy a car, maybe load up a Corvette with cement or drive a zamboni into the building! It's certainly possible since Vince loves going back to what worked in the past.

If you haven't seen, last week Alyssa Milano tweeted "If you've been sexually harassed or assaulted write 'me too' as a reply to this tweet." And respond people did. I didn't feel called to answer, but after this week I just need to get it off my chest.
At lunch yesterday I started out for a run. The day had been a whirlwind…one kid to school (with the other 3 in tow), another kid to school, 2.5 hours at my son's doctors appointment, drop that kid off at school, then approximately 27 minutes to get a run in before starting school pickups. Exactly .2 miles into my run, I was appalled to hear 4 dudes (that's a polite term) screaming at me from their car…making noises..and best of all…taking pictures of me?!? For what…the sweaty jogger photo album? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE!!!!!!! I was shocked and embarrassed. I gave them the meanest look I could muster and then shook my fist at them….because I'm 85 years old and I think it's really vulgar to give people the finger. Sadly this wasn't even the first time this had happened this week. I was out for a 6am run a few days back (because school drop-offs are early y'all) and in the pitch black another group of dudes felt the need to start whistling and yelling out their car window. Which was freaking terrifying…remember guys…it's not yet sunrise. Back to the most recent run…I anger sprinted the rest of the three miles and my thoughts went back to other times harassment aka THE NORM crept into my life.
….like the time I was 19 and went to a party at another campus. I had just arrived with my boyfriend (now husband) when after a few minutes the birthday dude at the house cornered me and asked "do you know why you are here?!" as he tried to grab me and push me up the stairs with him…to "celebrate" his birthday. I looked around frantic, realized I knew no one around me, and sprinted out the door. What I should have done was punch him right in the face but hindsight is 20/20.
…or the time I was out at a bar to celebrate a bachelorette party. I was too early to show pregnant when some dude grabbed me. Given the fact that I was stone cold sober and in mama bear protecting her baby mode I wheeled around and yelled "DO NOT GRAB ME!" The guy was shocked he had been called out…as was the girl he was standing there with. "But really why were you at a bar while pregnant?" Answers: to celebrate my friend and because I don't live in a cave while pregnant. Better question: why should I have to worry about someone grabbing me at a bar, pregnant or not?
I am lucky enough that I've only had to deal with the mild harassments…nothing major that other women have had to go through. But then..what is the "Me Too" movement about? It's a call to action. I've always told Matthew, if anything happened to me when I was running, you better believe I will absolutely go down with a fight. Not so before kids, when I was running as a young, single girl. But motherhood has made me courageous and because of that I'm aggressive. If a man is running towards me, you better believe I'm going to look him right in the eye and say hello. In the meantime, I've sized him up…you know…in case I need to do a police report about him. I wish I could say I'm joking but the best defense is a good offense and I must be prepared.
I know these incidents are small. But I'm doubting Bill Cosby or Harvey Weinstein or many other predators woke up one day and said "I'm going to hurt women." It started with a catcall while on a second job. Or with a comment while drinking at a party. Then escalated to inappropriate comments as a young, powerful boss (yup, heard those too). And all that time no one said "enough is enough." Well it's time we said not just "that's not appropriate" but instead said "THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE." Yes, I am reminded of how I need to raise my boys to be kind, honest, and respectful. But we also need to continue to educate girls and women that these harassments are not acceptable. I find it laughable to imagine myself doing any of the things I described above to a man. So to all my nieces and friends and girls I've coached and anyone else reading this, if you experience harassment, find your voice. Be strong. Look him straight in the eye and let them know that is not how you treat a woman. Because you are worth it and no one should make you feel otherwise.

A sermon preached by Christopher L. Webber on November 20, 2016, at the Church of the Incarnation, San Francisco.
A long time ago there was a young man who lived in Israel who worked many years as a carpenter and then began to preach. For maybe three years he wandered around the countryside teaching people and drawing quite a following, but then he made the mistake of going to Jerusalem and upsetting the authorities. so he was arrested and tortured and killed.
Now that's the most amazing claim that ever was made for any human being. No such claims were ever made for Joseph Smith or George Fox or Plato or Socrates or even Mohammad or Buddha. But stranger still, it comes from a Jew, Paul of Tarsus, who was educated in the best Jewish schools in a faith that had for at least fifteen hundred years been drawing a wider and wider line of separation between human beings and God.
In the early chapters of Genesis God is a kind of friendly neighbor who drops by occasionally to see how things are going. Early in the Book of Genesis you find God walking in the garden and looking for Adam, and a little later on you find God stopping in to have dinner with Abraham, but God gets more and more remote as the story goes on. God appears in a burning bush to Moses and then in a cloud to give the him the Ten Commandments while the people stand terrified at a distance. That early sense of closeness gradually disappears. Isaiah, centuries later, pictures God as being so high above the earth that the people appear like grasshoppers – but that's the kind of view we ourselves might have these days as we come into any airport and look down at nearby suburban streets But the sense of distance continued to grow and not long after Isaiah, Ezekiel had a vision in which he could only speak of "the appearance of the likeness of the glory of God." In his vision, he couldn't see God, of course, or even the glory of God or the likeness of the glory of God but only the appearance of the likeness of the glory of God: a third-hand relationship.
Now, if that were a claim made by people who hadn't known him, or if that were a claim developed by theologians centuries later, I would reject it out of hand. But it wasn't. It was said by people who knew him, It was said by people who were there. They were there when he was arrested and crucified and buried, and they went out saying, "This is what we ourselves saw." "What our eyes have witnessed and our hands have handled" wrote St. John, "we declare to you." Now, is that at all reasonable? Is it reasonable to believe that: that one human life could contain the fullness of God?
You know, that's the quintessentiaI Anglican question, the kind of question mostly only Episcopalians ask: Is it reasonable? You can go to some churches your whole life and never hear anyone talk about reason. But we do. Is it reasonable to think that the creator of quarks and spiral nebulae and black holes and infinite distance would be present in one brief human life? I'm talking about the God of the scientists who tell us that there are 400 billion stars in our galaxy. But then, that's just our galaxy and there are said to be 170 billion galaxies in the observable universe; (I didn't do the math to figure out 170 billion times 400 billion but it's a lot. I remember reading about an Eskimo language whose counting system goes: "One, two, many.") That's the number of stars and galaxies: many. 170 billion galaxies in the observable Universe, each with hundreds of billions of stars stretching out into space 13.8 billion light-years in all directions. That's definitely "many" and probably that says it better than million and billion and trillion – which all sound alike to me. The only other time we need numbers like that is to talk about the national debt or Wall Street salaries.
So if you travel at the speed of light for 13.8 billion years you might – might, but who knows because no one has been there – you might come to the edge of the universe and then what? Then what? What would you see beyond that? But it's that God, that Creator of that universe, we are talking about, that God who was present in Jesus. ls it reasonable to believe that? Yes, Yes, it is. For why would a creator indulge himself or herself with the creation of infinite space if it were all one vast impersonal swirl of power but empty of love, empty of response, empty of any intelligence able to understand – at least in part – and respond in "wonder, love, and praise?" In fact, it seems to me, it's less unlikely that that Creator should be present in one specific human life than that that Creator should be vaguely present in all human life and it seems reasonable to me that that one human life, the life of Jesus, should be not totally different from any other but rather a summing up, a clarification, a simultaneous showing of all that God is and all that we – everyone of us – might be.
To say that all the fullness of God dwelt in Jesus is to say something about ourselves also: it's a way of saying that all human life has that capacity for God-ness, for relationship, for wholeness and holiness, and therefore for that God to dwell in us. And that's wonderful, isn't it? That's wonderful. And it's also frightening. It would be much more comfortable to settle for something less, a remote, unknowable God basically indifferent to us and uninvolved in our lives: "The Force," as they said in Star Wars. I've had young couples planning marriage tell me that they didn't really know about God but they thought there was a sort of Force out there.
But that's not what the gospel offers. What the gospel offers is a God beyond all knowing indeed, but somehow nevertheless "personal" truly known in human life, especially, uniquely, in Jesus, but also to some degree in Peter and Paul and John and Francis of Assisi and Thomas Cranmer and Samuel Seabury and Darren Minor and you and you and you. This is a God who could not possibly be contained in any human building, yet who can be present in this building yes, and in the very small piece of bread you receive this morning at the altar – think of that when the wafer is placed in your hand – the infinite God, present there, and, yes, even in you, even in me.
And then, you see, that relationship gives a purpose to the whole of creation. The Creator is a God who loves, who seeks a response, and who made us for that purpose. And all of this brings us around by a rather long route to the subject of Harvest and Thanksgiving coming to a table near you this Thursday. I told someone I was thinking of dealing with themes like that this morn ing and they said, "You need to remember that this is a city parish and pretty far removed from any ideas about Harvest." Really? Does Thanksgiving bring to mind only the shelves full of canned and frozen food at Safeway? Do we never get far enough south to see the endless fields of Brussel Sprouts? Or appreciate how much the economy of this state and this nation depends on the harvest of fruits and vegetables in fields up and down the state?
But, you know, there's a potential danger in any harvest festival because it's a part of a natural rhythm of seed time and harvest, part of an annual circular pattern that goes around and comes around, unchanging year after year after year – well, except that we're all a little older each time it comes around and around and around. And there's nothing more deadly than a circle nothing more deadening than the same thing over and over again. Seen one turkey, you've seen 'em all.
You know, when the Hebrew people came into the land of Canaan they found people there who were fixated on harvests. They worshiped gods who could bring them a good harvest and nothing more, gods without any purpose greater than a good crop this autumn, and a great deal of the Old Testament is the story of the conflict between the God of the Bible and the gods of Canaan: the God who works in history versus the gods who work in nature. And the people were constantly tempted to settle for something that small: just a good harvest, food enough for another year. And the prophets were constantly threatening, urging, warning, that these gods were too small and basically not worth the trouble.
But out of the process the Jews did nevertheless acquire some harvest festivals which they still celebrate and which we inherited from them. Passover and therefore Easter itself was closely connected to the first spring harvest and Pentecost too was a harvest festival. But Passover remained rooted in history: an event – an historic event – in which God had been clearly at work, and the prophets continued to point toward a future, a future fulfillment of God's purpose in history a Messiah and a Messianic age and a harvest of a very different sort a once and for ever harvest of human lives brought into an eternal kingdom. That's the beauty of harvest festival, of Thanksgiving, coming at the end of the Christian year. Yes, Christmas is coming and all that, one more time, but the tragedy of the department stores and all those who skip Advent and move right on from Thanksgiving to Christmas is that they leave out the weeks that put it in perspective, that remind us that this Jesus I've been talking about, this incarnation of the eternal Creator. not only came once but will come again, just once more at the end of time, and bring in a final harvest and sort out the good grain from the bad.
So, yes, the world goes around and around, winter and summer and planting and harvest, but the Judaeo-Christian insight is that far more importantly it is going somewhere also going forward in a straight line with a beginning, a middle, and an end. One eternal beginning and one eternal everlasting end. The Creator beyond all knowing has come here to be known and to call us to a life as far beyond this as the Creator is beyond the creation. The Epistle and Gospel today go together and tell us about that God, that Creator God beyond all imagining that God who was fully present in Jesus of Nazareth that God who died for us on a cross and that God in whom we also find the meaning and purpose of life.
Wow! I was taken by this sermon and have shared the link with my seminary students. I am doing some online teaching/mentoring in retirement. Lynn and I are now living in the Tampa area and enjoying milder weather. Have missed the luncheons we used to enjoy in Canaan-Salisbury-Sharon. Glad you are remaining active in ministry and pray God's provision for your health. The Church is richer for you. Never forget your graciousness in welcoming me to the community 19 years ago!


GameGeex - Get some friends together for zombie killing shenanigans in Dead Island A new trailer from Deep Silver promotes the multiplayer mode, where you and three buddies and go on a zombie hunting spree.
There are few things in life that are more appealing than smashing a zombie's head in repeatedly with a wooden paddle. Deep Silver knows this, and is also aware that you may have a couple buddies that want in on the paddle-swinging action.
The people behind Dead Island have released a new trailer highlighting the multiplayer aspect of their story-driven zombie survival game. Dead Island sports four player co-op, with easy drop-in/out mechanics so that anyone can jump in at anytime, whether it's the girl next door who happens to have an interest in boating, or your grandfather who served in World War II and thinks the country is being taken over by communists. The game has also officially gone gold, and will be available September 6 in NA, and September 9 everywhere else.
Check out the trailer after the break, and start practicing your paddle swinging.


Going to an office everyday has all kinds of advantages but foremost among them is the structure it provides. You've got to get there which requires the structure of a morning routine and the structure of a drive to work (you go the same way every time, right?). When you arrive there is a building and an office and a desk and a chair. There is coffee and a computer and a phone and books and paper. Oh, and there are people there who do things to support you if you ask nicely and treat them respectfully and return the favor once in a while. There are also people who work late at night to clean up after the other people which is a pretty nice deal. Office structure is predictable and reliable. Mostly.
I'm a beginner at this, that much is clear. I need to allow myself some space to exist in the unknown; to bounce around a little while I sort it out. So far what I can tell you is that an unstructured life is definitely worth living. It's just that you need some structure to pull it off.
One last observation about home office life: upon closer examination I have noticed the following: there is coffee and a computer and a phone and books and paper. Oh, and there are people there who do things to support you if you ask nicely and treat them respectfully and return the favor once in a while. There are also people who work late at night to clean up after the other people which is a pretty nice deal. Home office structure is predictable and reliable.
I love, love, love this piece – it is authentically your voice. Keep going, writing, mining and simply being you.


Memories of Philippine Kitchens includes classic Filipino recipes like Barbecued Pork Skewers (Satay), Chicken Adobo, Pineapple Sweet and Sour Sauce, and Peanut Sauce.
Mary "Inday" Gancayco serves a memorable mixture of chicken and pork adobo coated with mashed chicken livers and topped with fried garlic.
1. In a large nonreactive bowl or heavy-duty, resealable plastic bag, combine all of the marinade ingredients. Add the chicken pieces and turn to coat in the marinade. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
2. In a large casserole or Dutch oven, heat the chicken and marinade over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally to make sure the chicken is covered in the marinade, until the chicken is cooked through and tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
3. Transfer the chicken pieces to a large bowl, raise the heat to medium-high, and reduce the sauce until it is the consistency of heavy cream, about 5 minutes. Remove the bay leaves and chiles. Return the chicken to the sauce and cook until just warmed through.


Tallinn, Estonia | AFP | Google and Facebook may face higher tax bills in Europe as the EU rushed Saturday to change rules so that more of Silicon Valley's mega profits fall into public coffers.
Public anger against the billions of euros earned by online behemoths is growing louder in Europe and EU finance ministers meeting in Estonia pledged to make sure the companies pay a fairer tax.
But divisions emerged on how to go about taking on the giants, with several member states worried that a tax in Europe could push the companies to set up shop in Asia.
In the digital age "the current taxation system no longer applies and that is why we have to find another solution," said Toomas Toniste, finance minister of Estonia, which hold the EU's six-month rotating presidency.
Led by France and Germany, big EU powers urged their bloc partners to explore an emergency tax so that the giants pay tax where they earn revenue, instead of on profits booked in a low-tax EU HQ of their choice, often Ireland or Luxembourg.
"We are now about 10 countries to back this idea," said French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire as stepped into the talks.
But the road ahead will be difficult. Europe-wide tax reform is a huge headache in the European Union, requiring unanimity of all 28 states, which has proven nearly impossible on tax issues.
Ministers from smaller member states already hinted at difficulties, warning that they would much prefer the problem be addressed at the international level, such as at the G20 or through the OECD, the club of rich nations.
"I think we should be very careful not to tax on what we are going to live on in the future," said Danish Finance Minister Kristian Jensen.
"I am… always sceptical by new taxes and I think Europe taxes heavily enough," he added.
The OECD has also poured doubt on the proposal.
Generally speaking, "taxes on revenues, they're daft", said Pascal Saint-Amans, the OECD's tax policy director during a hearing on Wednesday at the French parliament.
But "politically, I understand that it may be necessary, given that reform led by the OECD at the G20 level could take years to achieve.
The commission, the EU's executive arm, has been tasked to draw up a set of solutions, including the French proposal, in time for an EU summit in Tallinn on September 29.
Europeans have become increasingly aggressive against US technology giants seen by officials as gaining too much power, with Amazon and Apple also under scrutiny.
Moreover, several national authorities in the EU have opened up tax fights with Google, Airbnb and other Internet giants.
A French court, citing EU law, ruled in July that Google was not liable for 1.12 billion euros ($1.27 billion) in taxes claimed by the state. France appealed the decision.

With 25 years of experience, I advise family-owned and PEG-owned, domestic and internationally active companies in the manufacturing and distribution space.
I also specialize in serving higher education institutions, including public and private four-year institutions and community colleges. I provide practical solutions for my client's issues and I help them comply with required industry standards.
Whether it was because of my calm demeanor or my specialized knowledge, Plante Moran offered me the chance, over 10 years ago, to move to the Toledo office for a two-fold purpose: manage the commercial practice and develop the Ohio higher education practice.
I regularly speak to higher education institutions' boards on FASB and GASB updates. I'm also a frequent speaker for the Ohio Association of College and University Business Officers. I'm a member of the Michigan Association of CPAs, the Ohio Society of CPAs, and the AICPA, and I'm on the board of the local American Cancer Society. I hold a B.S.B.A. in accounting from Aquinas College.
I've learned to cultivate a calm personality; I rarely get angry. In life, I believe that stuff happens no matter what, and this is especially true when you have five kids. I've learned to just roll with whatever comes next.


Centro Laser is a job shop specializing in sheet and tube cutting. They are based in Santorso (VI) Italy and are part of the SOVEM Group. With its five metal fabrication divisions, SOVEM supplies a complete service which includes cutting, mechanical processing, treatments, welding and assembly. Centro Laser was established as a cutting department within SOVEM and then split to become a separate company.
The shortage of highly skilled fabrication experts capable of creating a finished part just from a drawing was solved by adding a laser system. In 2004-2005 Centro Laser purchased a second-hand, rebuilt BLM GROUP, ADILAS laser system. In 2007 the added a combination machine, the LT COMBO, which made it possible to enter the tube market. This machine is widely used in the metal fabrications sector. It was not easy getting a foothold in laser tube processing, but today Centro Laser could not do without it.
The sheet laser cutting machine took the place of traditional shearing and punching machines. With its peerless speed and cutting quality, the BLM GROUP LC5 combination laser is ideal for processing tubes that expands the potential market.
The processing accuracy of the laser systems ensures complex joints that are extremely easy to assemble: this is the most important advantage for Centro Laser. Metal workers who used to cut, weld and work by hand in the workshop have been replaced by programmers who draw the parts on CAD/CAM upstream of the process and prepare the job orders for the automatic production systems.
Today, for example, to make a batch of a thousand of grilles, they have gone from over 6 minutes per part to just 2 minutes, without counting the savings derived from better electrical efficiency.
For subcontractors like Centro Laser that change production ten times a day, the versatility of LC5 is another winning feature. Being able to switch from sheet to tube instantly or even being able to interrupt a sheet job to make way for an urgent tube and then resume it afterwards from the same point is an irreplaceable advantage.
The initial investment was quickly paid back by the production speed, reliability, repeatability and ease of use of the machine. The fact of being able to address two different markets – that of tubes and that of sheets - with the combined system offers major commercial opportunities.
LC5 is the laser cutting system for tubes and sheets. It guarantees perfect performance even on high-reflecting material (such as copper, aluminium, brass), in addition to ensuring high quality and low operating costs. The versatility and flexibility of laser makes it possible to switch from sheet to tube in no time.

NDC FINDS FINANCING SOLUTION FOR HORNELL YMCA
Rural New York Community Receives $6.2 Million NMTC Investment
Hornell, New York, located in rural Steuben County, will soon open the doors of a brand new YMCA, thanks to the hard work and commitment of the town's leadership, its residents, its local banks, and the community-building services of the National Development Council. The Y, a more than century-old Hornell institution and mainstay of this city of about 10,000 people, provides vital services not only for its 1,200 members but for clients of area hospitals who receive various medical and rehabilitation services at the Y, as well as for students of a Hornell parochial school that has no gym facilities of its own.
Despite the vitality of its programs and its financial well-being, the Y was constrained in its ability to meet the growing needs of the City by its obsolete, too-small and time-worn home, the only full family fitness facility in Hornell. The community envisioned a new facility that would nearly double the Y's current space, making it possible to expand current programs and to add new ones, including art and music. The expansion will also include a community room that will be available for community group/public meetings.
With the support of local residents and businesses, the Y conducted a successful fund-raising campaign, but they were still nearly $2 million short of the total project cost of $6.2 million. This is typical of the kind of problem that NDC deals with in its client communities coast-to-coast, and Mayor Shawn Hogan, sought NDC's assistance in securing and structuring financing to close this gap. NDC field directors Bob Sweet and Michelle Mooney provided the city with the advice and guidance it needed to advance this project, identifying the New Markets Tax Credit as the solution. NDC used part of its Round 6 $90 million NMTC allocation to raise $1.7 million in equity from JP Morgan Chase Bank, leveraged by the $4.4 million raised in the capital campaign.
"The expansion of the local YMCA was a critical community goal for the City of Hornell and the City's faith in NDC's ability to close the Y's funding gap was a key reason that Hornell sought our assistance," notes Mooney.
"Multi-year capital campaign pledges provided one of the principal challenges in structuring this project," Mooney explained. "The amount of NMTCs that a project can generate is directly related to the amount of funds available for investment in a Qualified Equity Investment, or "QEI", on the day a NMTC transaction closes. Proceeding with a transaction that utilized only the Y's cash on hand would not have closed the financing gap and it would not have maximized the use of NMTC on this project. Due to the Y's importance in the community, a consortium of local banks was willing to make a bridge loan on the pledges but it sought a collateral position that would have jeopardized the use of NMTC." The NDC New Markets and Field team spent considerable time working with the local banking consortium to devise a structure that would satisfy local needs and still meet NMTC regulations.
Y Executive Director Mark Morrissey noted that he found NDC's work especially helpful because it is "very technical and involved." He is confident and encouraged about theY's future. "Building this new YMCA is going to impact thousands of people in our area for years to come," notes Morrissey.

Navalny Announces Hunger Strike To Protest Prison Conditions
Published April 4, 2021 at 6:57 AM CDT
LULU GARCIA-NAVARRO, HOST:
Imprisoned Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny says he's going on hunger strike to protest what he says is an inability to access medical care. After surviving a poisoning attempt by the Russian government last August, Navalny was jailed by the Russian authorities in February. The move sparked huge protests in Moscow calling for his release. But with deteriorating health, what's next for the activist and his movement? Julia Ioffe is a correspondent with GQ magazine, and she has been following the Navalny case. Hello.
JULIA IOFFE: Hi, Lulu.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: As best as we know, what's Navalny condition in prison?
IOFFE: Well, really, all we know is what he has told us through his lawyers and his social media posts, which is that he is having increasingly sharp pains in his back and that he is starting to lose feeling in both of his legs. We know that prison authorities have taken him to a hospital - a prison hospital where they did an MRI. Nobody has seen the results of it. And he got two pills of ibuprofen.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: I mean, he announced he's going on a hunger strike. What is the significance of that, in your view?
IOFFE: It's really significant because, as his associates have pointed out and people who know him well have told me is - when he was a free man and not in jail, this was something he could never understand. He could never understand why people went on hunger strike. And now he says he sees the logic of it, which is that you're totally at the mercy of the prison authorities and the government, and this is really your only leverage - you know, threatening to basically kill yourself if you don't get what you want.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: I mean, he is the most prominent opposition leader in Russia. But after he was poisoned, he got treatment in Germany. And then he chose to return to Russia, where he was promptly arrested. Why didn't he stay outside of the country?
IOFFE: If you're not in Russia and you claim to be an opposition politician, it's not real. People in Russia don't take you seriously if you're not there with them experiencing the realities of Putin's justice system and the corruption in Russia and the deteriorating economic reality. People won't take you seriously. You know, he had several chances to live abroad, and he never wanted to. He feels Russia is his home, and he wants to make Russia better. He sees no reason to live somewhere else.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Well, Julia, what's the Kremlin's calculation, then, in jailing him and keeping him in the condition he's in?
IOFFE: I think the calculus is to basically decapitate the movement. You know, people call him the leading opposition or the most prominent opposition leader in Russia, but, really, he's the only opposition leader in Russia. And he's the only one who's developed this extensive network of activists and election offices in cities. The real calculation, though, is in September, Russia has parliamentary elections coming up. And even though those are very tightly engineered by the Kremlin, Navalny has figured out a way to kind of short circuit them with a program called smart voting, where people sign up. And at the very last minute so that the Kremlin doesn't have a chance to tinker with the ballot, he tells people who to vote for. And it really messes up the Kremlin's tight engineering of the election, so I think they wanted him out of the game. There aren't real consequences for them when they do that. It's all upside, really.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: I mean, what do you think will happen next for Navalny? I mean, if that is the calculation - that there is only an upside for the Kremlin and that they can really decapitate a movement - then where do you think this is headed?
IOFFE: From my conversations with people in Moscow, it seems like things are headed in a far worse direction. I think everybody who's in the Kremlin and Kremlin-adjacent increasingly sees it as a fight for their lives, that it's an existential battle for them, that it's either us or them. And that personally makes me very worried because it's kind of what you saw in a place like Syria, right? You can't give the other side an inch because you feel like they're going to kill you if you don't kill them. So it seems like Russia is entering yet another phase of even more entrenched opposition and an even more entrenched Kremlin.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Julia Ioffe is a correspondent with GQ magazine. Thank you very much.
IOFFE: Thank you, Lulu. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

As a mage I can agree. Super frustrating to cast all over again.
Kick the spell right out of your silly magic hands!
This Follower Ability is given to the Horde follower Mulverick by default, what's unique about this though is that Mulverick is a hunter, while this is a rogue's spell. Perhaps a oversight by Blizzard.
It's amazing how frustrating a kick to the groin is when you're tryin' to cast a spell. This is why all mages should invest in some skill with plate armor. Kick THAT you dirty rogues!
Used by a rogue to interrupt a spell (super frustrating).


Dr. Susan Babbitt presided over the Chamber of Commerce January 2013 luncheon meeting. This begins her second year as chamber president as she also headed the organization in 2008. Susan discussed preliminary plans for the coming year along with committees and events.
State Representative Earl Sears spoke briefly and noted he would likely not be back until June as the legeslative session begins in just a few weeks.
Wilbur Lee Tucker (the new Chamber Vice President) will be performing at the Crown Theatre Jan. 26th.

BENDIGO ADVERTISER HDFNL HQ THE grand final rivalry between Leitchville-Gunbower and North Bendigo is now all square at two apiece after the Bombers' Heathcote District league triumph on Saturday. In the fourth grand final in a row between the two powerhouses, the Bombers hung on to win by nine points, 14.10 (94) to 12.13 (85), in front of a crowd that paid a gate of $41,000 at Huntly.

Awards, publications, presentations, certifications, and construction news at the architecture firm COULSON.
Wow! We're thrilled by the enormous outpouring of excitement and interest we've received about our design! Thanks to everyone who has reached out.
It gives us the support to bring this pioneering vision into production and proves our project mission: to capture the public imagination with a product that engages diverse audiences – bringing together people interested in art, science, nature, fashion, simplicity, and modern design – inspiring and educating with a new, cost attainable language for ultra-sustainable living – using simple, low-tech, transferrable methods that will spark conversation and replication to create the cultural shift we need to address climate change in all buildings.
We're honored that our groundbreaking work inspired passionate prose from such a wide range of publications around the world!
DesignBoom, Uncrate, HypeBeast, Outdoor Aesthetics, New Atlas, Curbed, HiConsumption, The Spaces, Plain Magazine, Harold Magazine, Inhabitat, Apartment Therapy, E-Architect, Lonely Planet, The Heavy Current, Yanko Design, Milano Design Week, City of Future, Better Homes and Gardens, Dwell, Star Tribune, Architect Magazine, and many more.
Carly Coulson's essay was published in ARCHITECT Magazine in a compelling issue dedicated to the world's most progressive architecture, where COULSON presents a new approach – in communication and design – to sustainability and climate change.
A progressive new treatise is critical to shift the architectural industry and engage new audiences. The techniques proposed, however, are simple… almost invisible.
Architects are in a unique position. The world is waiting for us to take a leadership role on climate change and, in doing so, our profession will find renewed relevancy – and, with new purpose and tools, an explosion in creativity!
It was an honor to be featured in the StarTribune Innovation series. Sharing our approach to ultra-energy efficient architecture where the sustainability is invisible.
"Coulson's work is unique both technically and aesthetically. Too often elements that make a project more sustainable are an afterthought and visual distraction in the design...Coulson is breaking new ground."
COULSON is inventing new languages for sustainability – in communication and design.
We recognize that new audiences need to be inspired to meet the challenge of climate change and new treatise are needed to shift the architectural industry.
We truly believe architects can lead the way. Advanced energy modeling can propel our profession to entirely new, unknown forms of architecture, evolving from very specific climate data and site context, and creatively pushing the boundaries of sustainable design. It is a thrilling opportunity for the profession to find renewed relevancy, and with new purpose and tools, an explosion in creativity.
Since 2008 all our work meets the 2030 Challenge and the Passive House Institute standard. At every step of our design process we incorporate energy modeling and allow ourselves time to ask questions and experiment. Often we are very surprised at the interesting results, upending standard assumptions and driving new visual languages for green building.
We want sustainability to be invisible, to merge with mainstream architecture as a standard element of design excellence with the primary focus on the emotional atmosphere and experience that architecture creates. We are honored by Lloyd Alter's insights on our work and "praise of invisible sustainability".
Pays d'en Haut is a story of physical, spiritual, and environmental renewal. A project born from Lake Superior's destructive might and a new owner's desire to live in open harmony with those sublime forces. Boundaries removed, vistas cleanly framed, surrounding development screened, doors opened to new exterior rooms, and a smooth cascading flow between spaces, floors, and terraces, encouraging the eye and spirit to move freely. In this extreme cold climate, the renewed design uses invisible, passive methods to achieve an 82% reduction in energy demand without renewable energy, meeting the Passive House Institute standard and 2030.
An essay by Carly Coulson published by AIA ARCHITECT.
Imagine it is -40°F outside. From a place of perfect thermal comfort, a magical blizzard dances around you – like being in a snow globe. You feel a seamless connection to your natural surroundings…yet no active heating is being used. In fact, this near-zero energy building has no high-tech gadgetry or renewable energy systems. The focus is purely on the poetic sense-of-place that the architecture and landscape create…it is INVISIBLE SUSTAINABILITY.
From the extreme cold climate of northern Minnesota, our architecture and research firm COULSON has been refining this approach since 2008, meeting the highest levels of sustainability using simple, invisible methods, without impacting the aesthetic creativity and elegant simplicity we strive for. Our journey began with the groundbreaking design of the University of Minnesota Bagley Classroom, a LEED Platinum and AIA COTE Top Ten Green Building, and we have gradually advanced to achieve greater design freedom, transparency, cost control, and minimalist details in our recent projects.
We've found that question is more affordable and fluid when we're doing energy modeling in-house, and it provides us a joy in creative discovery – from it we're writing a new language for green building.
Please check out this powerful issue of ARCHITECT Magazine. It is devastating in its blunt facts and inspiring in its audacity – with a bold call to action for sweeping change in architecture. It's a gorgeous work led by Editor-in-Chief Ned Cramer, both compelling and scientific, with a rich visual and written narrative that makes a passionate plea to our profession.
COULSON is very honored to be featured in this issue, sharing our experience in meeting rigorous energy targets and using the tools of sustainability to write an exciting new language for architecture.
"Climate change is the fundamental design problem of our time. Not style, not fees, not education, not community, not health, not justice. All other concerns, many of them profoundly important, are nonetheless ancillary. The threat climate change poses is existential, and buildings are hugely complicit – even more so than that stock culprit, the automobile. As every architect should know, buildings consume some 40 percent of the energy in the U.S. annually, and they emit nearly half of the carbon dioxide (CO2), through greenfield development, cement production, and the burning of fossil fuels such as oil, gas, and coal. Because CO2 traps solar energy in the atmosphere, thereby heating the planet, it is the chief agent of climate change, making buildings – and by association, the architecture profession – profoundly responsible" writes Cramer.
We are so excited about this beautiful publication of Disappear Retreat in DESIGN DETAIL Magazine September 2017 issue.
Disappear Retreat insinuates into the landscape with a jewel-like form and mirrored glass that takes on the identity of the site in its reflections (transparent ultraviolet color prevents animal collision). A mosaic pattern of thin-film PV integrated into the south glass wall generates all the energy needs from the sun and camouflages the building into the surroundings like a spotted forest animal. The universe, stars, and northern lights press close through a frameless glass roof.
The innovative design by COULSON strives for a paradigm shift where low-tech, low-cost, sustainable building is attainable now without sacrificing aesthetics, comfort, or transparency. The building meets PASSIVE HOUSE and LIVING BUILDING CHALLENGE, the most rigorous targets in the world.
COULSON is dedicated to the highest level of sustainability. This passion for the environment is not only technical, but extends to the experience of nature, which is an essential element in our design work and life. We want to merge architecture with the natural world to live seamlessly and lightly with its mysterious beauty. Disappear Retreat embodies this ethos and we are honored to be featured in this DESIGN DETAIL issue focusing on innovative international buildings that redefine the live/work/play balance.
89% – that's our overall portfolio-average energy savings (pEUI) for all the projects at COULSON since we started.
We are so pleased to be honored as 1 of only 6 AIA Signatory Firms in the U.S. exceeding the 2030 Challenge for our portfolio.
We do rigorous energy modeling– seamlessly integrated into our design process for every building. As a Signatory Firm we report the results of our portfolio every year. Our portfolio-average for 2016 was 100% pEUI. This high performance is invisible, without impact on the poetry of place and the design excellence we strive for. It is accomplished with simple low-tech components and passive strategies with innovation in advanced building analysis and integrated design.
The AIA 2030 Commitment is a national framework for tracking progress and helping architects meet the 2030 Challenge calling for all new buildings to be carbon-neutral by 2030 and by 2015 achieve a 70% reduction in energy use.
Carly Coulson, AIA, LEED AP, was interviewed by the amazing designer Angelina Rennell. It is a privilage to be included among the inspiring artists, curators, and designers she profiles at BEKLINA where she connects unique perspectives for those of similar passions for beautiful and thoughtful design.
COULSON is honored to be included in AIA Minnesota "The Guide To GOOD DESIGN 2017" featuring our project Disappear Retreat in MIDWEST HOME Magazine June/July 2017 issue.
Disappear Retreat dissolves the living footprint to zero energy, zero waste, zero water with all essentials integrated into this prefab, off-grid dwelling providing a minimalist lifestyle in resources, cost, and aesthetics. The design is light, transparent, and seamlessly connected to the surroundings, insinuated into the landscape. The innovative project meets 2030, PASSIVE HOUSE, and LIVING BUILDING CHALLENGE and requires no mechanical heating or cooling for cold climates from Chicago to Calgary.

La Tortue rouge és una pel·lícula d'animació de 2016 coproduïda internacionalment entre França, Bèlgica i Japó, dirigida per Michaël Dudok de Wit en el seu debut com a director. El film, que és una coproducció entre Wild Bunch i Productora Ghibli, explica la història d'un home que tracta d'escapar d'una illa deserta i s'enfronta a una tortuga geganta. La cinta no té diàlegs Es va estrenar mundialment en la secció Un Certain Regard del Festival de Canes 2016. A l'estat espanyol es va estrenar amb el títol La tortuga roja.

Argument
Un home sense nom queda a la deriva després d'una tempesta i es desperta en una illa deserta. Després de trobar fruita fresca i aigua, així com una gran varietat d'animals i un bosc extens de bambú, l'home decideix deixar l'illa. L'home construeix una bassa de bambú, i intenta navegar lluny. No obstant això, un animal invisible destrueix la bassa, obligant a l'home a tornar a l' illa. Frustrat, intenta escapar amb una altra bassa, el seu pla torna a fallar per culpa de l'animal invisible. Després d'intentar-ho per tercera vegada, descobreix que l'animal és de fet una tortuga vermella. La seva bassa és destruïda de nou i l'home retrocedeix a l'illa.

Aquella nit, l'home veu a la tortuga vermella arrossegant-se a la riba, tractant d'anar terra endins. En venjança, colpeja la tortuga vermella al cap amb un pal de bambú, i la volteja. A mig construir una altra bassa, l'home comença a sentir-se culpable per deixar la tortuga a l'inrevés, per la qual cosa agafa un peix i tracta d'alimentar a la tortuga, però s'adona que ha mort. La petxina de la tortuga es parteix per la meitat durant la nit, i per a sorpresa de l'home, la tortuga es converteix en una dona. L'home tracta de reviure-la, fent un refugi sobre ella per protegir-la del sol. Quan la pluja arriba a l'illa, la dona es desperta. L'home s'adona que se'n ha anat, i la cerca per tota l'illa, finalment veu que està a la costa. Finalment veu la dona arrossegant la seva closca de tortuga buit pel mar. L'home fa el mateix amb la seva bassa semi-construïda. La parella eventualment forma una relació.

Alguns anys més tard, la parella té un fill, que troba una ampolla rentada en la riba. Després de caure accidentalment en una petita caverna, el fill entaula una relació peculiar amb altres tortugues de l'oceà. El fill creix acostumat a viure a l' illa. Un dia un tsunami copeja l'illa. Encara que ningú està greument ferit, el bosc de l'illa queda gairebé completament demolit. Després de cremar les restes de bambú, el fill troba la seva ampolla en un oasi a l'illa. Decidir sortir de l'illa, s'acomiada dels seus pares, i neda amb un trio de tortugues.

L'home i la dona passen la resta de les seves vides a l' illa. L'home mor pacíficament una nit, mentre mira la lluna. La dona, sostenint la mà de l'home una vegada més, es transforma de nou en una tortuga vermella, i s'arrossega de tornada a l'oceà.

Producció
La pel·lícula va ser coproduïda per Wild Bunch i Productora Ghibli en associació amb Why Not Productions. Segons Vincent Maraval, cap de Wild Bunch, el 2008 va visitar la Productora Ghibli al Japó i es va reunir amb Hayao Miyazaki. Miyazaki li va mostrar el curtmetratge Father and Daughter i li va demanar que busqués al seu director, Michaël Dudok de Wit, amb la perspectiva de coproduir un llargmetratge. Wild Bunch es va reunir amb Dudok de Wit a Londres i el va convèncer per assumir el projecte. El guió va ser escrit per Dudok de Wit i Pascale Ferran.

Dax Harwood on Cody Rhodes: "I hope to be able to work with him very, very soon"
Dax Harwood of FTR appeared on the final edition of the Gentleman Villian podcast and discussed his time working with Cody Rhodes…
"Before I came to AEW, I had a big issue with Cody, which I've talked to him about. He did a podcast with Sam Roberts and Sam Roberts said, 'I'm going to ask you point blank, who's better FTR, or the Revival, or The Young Bucks', and without skipping a beat, he said, 'The Young Bucks because FTR, or The Revival, they have to practice their matches and The Young Bucks, they don't. They just come in and have these matches.'"
"I took issue with that because in 18 years now, at that point, I think it was like 15 years or whatever, 14 years, I've never, ever, ever, ever, ever practiced a match in my life, and I will never practice a match in my life. That goes to the Speedball (Mike Bailey) match you saw at WrestleCade. He wanted to practice in the back and I said, 'Speedball, I'm sorry, I don't do that, and I'm not going to start today.' But that really ate at me because all the stuff that we had built up and we had worked so hard to create, I felt that he was taking a sh*t on that by saying we practice our matches. But I got over that. Even though it doesn't sound like it, I did. I got over it. He and I are very good friends. We talk all the time now. I think that he is a visionary, I think he is too smart for his own good, and I hope to be able to work with him very, very soon because I mean, I think I could tear it up with him."

This isn't new but it is remarkable. Back in 1835 Robert Jupe, patented his design for an expanding table. A century and a half later. DB Fletcher developed the Fletcher Capstan table.
Great design makes me high. What? You thought I meant something else? Sorry, but I still don't think you will be disappointed. Read on for the highs at Spring High Point Market.

Q: Row processing taking too long I'm currently working on an excel that processes around 500 registers, from another worksheet. The function imports a file, and then creates categories, using an index and match function (will use also another two elements to split the categories, that I copy with the for). Later, another function will create individual groups on different pages.
The problem I'm facing is the amount of time it takes to process the data, which is around 5 seconds per row. Obviously, I'm doing something wrong here, even if it works. Any ideas on how to make it better or improve the code?
Sub Import_data()

Dim FilePath As Variant, FileName As Variant, TempSheetName As String, k As Integer, n As Integer
Dim pctdone As Single

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

    End If

        .LabelProgress.Width = pctdone * (.FrameProgress.Width)
    End With
    DoEvents

If Sheets("REGISTER").Range("B" & k).Value > 0 Then

Sheets("REGISTER").Range("AA" & k).Value = WorksheetFunction.IfError(WorksheetFunction.Index(Sheets("LOT").Range("C9:C35"), WorksheetFunction.Match(Sheets("REGISTER").Range("C" & k).Value, Sheets("LOT").Range("A9:A35"), 0)), "")
Sheets("REGISTER").Range("AB" & k).Value = Sheets("REGISTER").Range("H" & k).Value
Sheets("REGISTER").Range("AC" & k).Value = Sheets("REGISTER").Range("V" & k).Value

If i = n Then Unload ufProgress

End If
Next k

Sheets("CONTROL").Activate

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

A: With this section, I've always found it faster to do destinationrange.value = sourcerange.value like this.
From this:
'Formulas to values
Sheets("REGISTER").Select
Columns("B:B").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False

to this:
sheets("REGISTER").Range("B:B").value = sheets("REGISTER").Range("B:B").value

Also, you could try turning calculations off until you need the sheet to recalculate using:
Application.Calculation = xlAutomatic
[bit where you need it to calculate]
Calculate
Application.Calculation = xlCalculateManual

Finally, if you're putting in a formula in to the sheet as part of the VBA, you can do it like this:
LastRow = 100
sheets("Sheet").range("A1").value = "=SUM(A:A)"
sheets("Sheet")range("A1").AutoFill Destination:=Range("A1:A" & LastRow)

Where LastRow has already been assigned using whichever method you prefer.
These changes should help reduce the processing time.


When I joined BBC Radio 4's Today programme some 14 months ago, my friend Ian Katz, then editor of Newsnight, took me to lunch. I spoke of the enormous privilege of editing this news institution. He smiled kindly and said I could look forward to buckets of manure being emptied over the programme. In fact I enjoyed a honeymoon period, with a depressingly eventful summer encouraging a large audience for news.

Jules Gros, né Jul Marcel Gros le  à Paris et mort le  à Lannion, est un linguiste et écrivain breton, spécialiste du parler populaire breton en Trégor.

Ses collectages, effectués auprès de sa grand-mère et d'autres gens de son village de Trédrez-Locquémeau (notamment de gens qui étaient encore unilingues), ont commencé très tôt au début du . Il en a tiré une vaste étude en 4 tomes sur le breton parlé du Trégor, dont un dictionnaire breton-français détaillant les sens figurés d'une grande quantité de mots. Ses collectages ont en outre été abondamment utilisés dans les ouvrages lexicographiques édité depuis : le dictionnaire Garnier, le dictionnaire français-breton des expressions figurées, le Dictionnaire du breton contemporain de Favereau, etc). Il a ainsi joué le rôle d'homme-ressource auprès de toute une génération de jeunes étudiants en langue bretonne. La lecture de ses livres restera pour longtemps une référence en matière de stylistique bretonne, car avec le départ des anciennes générations de bretonnants ce genre de collectes prend de plus en plus d'importance.

Vie
Jules Gros est né à Paris le . Ses parents confièrent leur fils unique à la grand-mère maternelle Michela an Allan (1833-1921) qui vivait au bourg de Trédrez, près de Lannion, où Jules Gros passa les sept premières années de son enfance. C'est à ses côtés lors des veillées où elle filait au rouet le lin et le coton qu'il entendit les premiers chants populaires gwerziou et soniou du Trégor et apprit la langue bretonne. Sa mère devait ensuite s'installer à Saint-Michel-en-Grève comme blanchisseuse et cuisinière à l'hôtel Bellevue. Dans cette nouvelle commune, Jules suivit les leçons de l'instituteur Basile (jusqu'au certificat d'études primaires), dont il épousa plus tard la fille.

C'est à l'âge de 13 ans qu'il apprit le breton littéraire dans le supplément en breton de la Croix des Côtes-du-Nord, , dirigé par François Vallée. Le recteur de Trédrez Yves-Marie Durand l'encouragea à poursuivre ses études, ce qu'il fit à Paris jusqu'au BEPC. Il commença à travailler dans sa quinzième année tout en suivant les cours de langues celtiques du père Kamenen en parallèle de ses études d'anglais et d'espagnol.

La rencontre avec Pol Diverrès, secrétaire du poète pleubianais Yves Berthou, lui fit découvrir le Barzhaz Breizh et l'entraîna sur le chemin du nationalisme breton et du « bardisme ». Il découvrit dans le texte la Grammaire du dialecte de Tréguier écrit par Louis Le Clerc.

Avec un camarade d'enfance retrouvé à Paris, André Bouguet, Jules Gros entama plusieurs voyages dans les pays celtiques et anglo-saxons en Grande-Bretagne, au pays de Galles puis en Allemagne. Il apprit de nouvelles langues : l'irlandais, le gallois et commença à rédiger son « carnet polyglotte », en établissant une série de tableaux comparatifs des expressions populaires. Après avoir passé deux ans en Allemagne comme professeur d'anglais dans une école de langues, il retourna dans son Trégor natal en 1911. C'est à cette époque qu'il commença à noter une partie des chants de sa grand-mère.

Le , il fut incorporé comme fantassin à Belfort pour effectuer son service militaire. Pendant ses permissions en Bretagne, il en profitait pour consigner dans ses carnets les termes et les expressions locales, conservés par la tradition orale. Il allait commencer ainsi son ouvrage monumental : Le Trésor du breton parlé.

La Première Guerre mondiale le mobilisa dans les Ardennes au front puis comme interprète, grâce à son érudition des langues. À son retour à la vie civile, il s'inscrivit au cours de celtique à la faculté des Lettres de Rennes, où enseignait déjà Anatole Le Braz. Il rentra ensuite au comité de rédaction de « Buhez Breiz », où il livra ses souvenirs de guerre « Dek devez e Verdun » (Dix jours à Verdun), puis écrivit régulièrement pour la revue régionaliste « Mouez ar Vro » (La Voix du Pays) de son ami Francis Gourvil. Il publia dans cette revue une série d'articles « War-Sao Bretoned ! » (Debout Bretons !).

Après son mariage en 1920, il s'installa à Versailles et fut engagé dans la société de teinture la Kalibine. Chaque été, il revenait cependant au pays pour poursuivre son inlassable collecte d'expressions figurées et de métaphores. Ce qui faisait dire à ses informateurs pas peu fiers : "Jul, amañ, a zo vont da gas tout kaozioù Tredrez da Bariz" (Jules va rapporter toutes les conversations de Trédrez à Paris !).

Pendant la seconde guerre mondiale, Jules Gros fut d'abord affecté comme interprète militaire en Belgique puis démobilisé le . Il rejoignit son poste de travail à la Kabiline jusqu'en 1945, où démobilisé, il s'installa définitivement à Locquémeau dans la maison qu'il avait fait construire à la veille de la guerre.
Le retour aux sources allait permettre à Jules Gros de compléter sa collecte. Le maire de Trédrez, Joseph Calvez, lui-même marin pêcheur, lui proposa de travailler à la coopérative des pêcheurs de sardines, qui à cette époque foisonnaient en baie de Lannion. Après la disparition de la sardine en 1947, il garda néanmoins son emploi et prit en charge le magasin de quincaillerie marine.

À l'âge de la retraite, il allait avoir le temps de mettre en forme ses matériaux de recherche, guidé par des ouvrages comme « La vie des mots » d'Armesttetter et la « Grammaire de rhétorique » de Claude Ogé. Une brochure de linguistique galloise de son ami Ithel Morgan orienta aussi son travail. C'est ainsi qu'allait naître le premier tome du « Trésor du breton parlé », publié en 1965 et plusieurs fois réédité, puis le Dictionnaire des expressions figurées, florilège du breton imagé (parlé). À nouveau Jules Gros fournit une multiplicité d'exemples pris à la source, "diwar ar grib", dans ses conversations quotidiennes avec les trégorrois.
Une récolte évaluée à plus  phrases ! Chaque mot est présenté dans les nuances et les contextes les plus variés, au sens propre comme au sens figuré. En 1974, paraît le  « Le style populaire », un véritable ouvrage de stylistique en orthographe KLT (Cornouaille, Trégor, Léon).

Jules Gros avait accompli son œuvre, avant de décéder à l'âge vénérable de 102 ans le .
