Known in kickboxing circles as 'The Art of Eight Limbs' or 'The King of the Ring'.
Muay Thai มวยไทย, also known as Thai Boxing, is the national sport of Thailand, famous for its powerful kicking technique and its devastating use of elbows and knees. Muay Thai is a ring sport that has evolved from the ancient Siamese war crafts of Krabi Krobong (short and long sword) and Muay Boran (unarmed combat).
Mettle Academy students focus on technique and safe training methods to develop the required skill-set and attributes that this sport demands. Students are exposed to each aspect of the art including boxing combinations, kick-boxing combinations, elbow strike variations, knee strike variations, clinching techniques, takedowns and sparring progressions as well as the Wai Khru Ram Muay ไหว้ครูรำมวย (a war dance performed before a fight to pay respects to your teacher and parents).
Mettle Students are also introduced to other complimentary arts including Bokator ល្បុក្កតោ (Khmer Boxing from Cambodia), and Muay Lao (Laos Boxing) whose techniques and strikes often overlap.
Our training system has been heavily influenced by the World Thai Boxing Association's Ajarn Surachai 'Chai' Sirisute and Ajarn Dan Inosanto, as well as the Thai Boxing Association of South Australia, namely Ajarn Nino Pilla and Khun Kru Alex Ticca.
Come and learn the Art of Muay Thai / Thai Boxing.


The monument was erected to commemorate the 70 Australian men and women who took part in the Spanish Civil War from 1936 to 1939.
The memorial is a wall of sandstone blocks with red brick courses. There is a low sandstone and brick parapet on its north east side. On the wall is a bronze plaque above a bas relief map of the Iberian peninsular showing towns where major battles took place during the war. The bronze map and its associated text was created by Dr Ross Bastiaan who has placed a number of similar plaques in Australia and other countries commemorating Australian military endeavours. Below this is a plaque with a description in both Spanish and English. There is another small plaque on the upper right of the wall in memory of the maker of the memorial, Netta Burns.
The memorial was instigated by a group wanting to commemorate Australians' participation in the Spanish Civil War. The Australian War Memorial could not accommodate them as the men and women who went to support the republican cause were not 'Australian forces'. The Australian Capital Territory government assisted them to place the monument by Lake Burley Griffin and it was unveiled in 1993 by Lloyd Edmunds, one of the last surviving Australian members of the International Brigades.
The inscription states that the 70 Australians served with the Republican Government forces. This is incorrect, in that 69 Australians did serve with the Republic Government forces, but Mr Nugent Bull served with General Franco`s Nationalist forces.
This monument honours the seventy Australian men and women who went to Spain during the Spanish civil war of 1936-39 to defend the cause of the Spanish Republic.
A Republican Government was elected in Spain in 1931 and a democratic constitution promulgated. In July 1936 a group of Spanish generals led by Francisco Franco staged a military uprising against the Popular Front Government precipitating a bloody civil war. When the conflict ended in April 1939 General Franco`s Nationalist forces controlled the country.
During the civil war some 50,000 supporters from fifty-three different countries went to Spain to defend the Republic. For them the Spanish Civil War represented the first battle in a larger war against fascism.
The Australian writer Nettie Palmer who was in Barcelona when the uprising occurred said of those who supported the Spanish Republic - though they were few in number and not powerful and seemed often to be shouting against the wind theirs was truly a brave chapter in Australia`s history.
This memorial erected by the Australians in Spain Memorial Committee was dedicated on 11 December 1993 by Lloyd Edmonds, International Brigade veteran.

National Federation of MMA Georgia Joins IMMAF
The International Mixed Martial Arts Federation (IMMAF) has officially confirmed the affiliation of the National Federation of Mixed Martial Arts Georgia (NFMMAG). The NFMMAG was established in 1991 in Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, with the aim of promoting youth sports and developing MMA in the region. As the sole federation for MMA in the country and representative of the majority of Georgian MMA clubs, the organisation is formally registered with and recognised by the Ministry of Sports and Youth Affairs. The NFMMAG has organised numerous competitions, including national championships and international open events, with invitations hosted to national federations abroad. The federation has also participated in international events hosted by MMA organisations in other countries. The National Federation of MMA Georgia is headed by President Ushangi (Mamuka) Mamulashvili, who is renowned as a former Georgian National Grappling (chidaoba) competitor – a popular sport within the country. IMMAF President, Kerrith Brown, said: "We extend a warm welcome to the National Federation of Mixed Martial Arts Georgia and its members, and anticipate a productive and mutually supportive working relationship with them as they join our global MMA family. I very much look forward to seeing Georgia's Amateur MMA athletes compete in IMMAF championships in 2016."]]>

Q: Changing content in UIView based on slider I created a Gauge using AppCode. Depending on the input, the gauge arrow in the middle rotates. I want to use a slider in Swift to determine how much the arrow in the gauge should rotate. If I hard code the input the arrow rotates to the proper position. For example, if I input 0.5, then the arrow points to the centre of the gauge.
My problem is that my UIView never updates the arrow depending on the new slider position. The arrow is always positioned depending on the UISlider's 'Current' value. How can I get my UIView to update in real time with respect to my UISlider.
I have a feeling that I'm supposed to put my 'drawRect' function in the 'ratingSliderChanged' action function. When I try to do this, my gauge never appears.
import Foundation
import UIKit

class RatingViewController: UIView {

  var sliderValue: CGFloat = 0.0

  @IBOutlet var newView:UIView!

  @IBAction func ratingSliderChanged(sender: UISlider){
   sliderValue = CGFloat(sender.value)
   println(sliderValue)
  }

 override func drawRect(rect: CGRect) {

  RatingGaugeStyleKit.drawCanvas1(frame: self.bounds, arrowAngle: sliderValue)

 }
}

Any Suggestions?

A: So I managed to do it with the help of someone at AppCode.
Basically because the image is dynamic, I need to call
 func setNeedsDisplay()

when the UISlider changes. This way, it makes sure to update my UIView when a parameter in my drawing changes. In this case, my parameter is the value from the UISlider.
Hope my explanation is clear for anyone needing this in the future.

A: Swift 4.2
@IBOutlet weak var sliderObj: UISlider!
@IBOutlet weak var selectionUIView: UIView!

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
}
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewDidAppear(true)
    sliderFunc()
}

@IBAction func sliderButtonTapped(_ sender: UISlider) {
    sliderFunc()
}

func sliderFunc() {
    let intObj: Int = Int(sliderObj!.value)
    sliderObj.value = roundf(sliderObj.value)
    let trackRect = sliderObj.trackRect(forBounds: sliderObj.frame)
    let thumbRect = sliderObj.thumbRect(forBounds: sliderObj.bounds, trackRect: trackRect, value: sliderObj.value)
    if intObj == 1 {
        UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.3, animations: {
            self.selectionUIView.center = CGPoint(x: thumbRect.midX, y: self.selectionUIView.center.y)
        }) { (isCompleted) in
            self.textView.text = "Sachin Tendulkar is scored 50 runs below"
        }
    } else if intObj == 2 {
        UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.3, animations: {
            self.selectionUIView.center = CGPoint(x: thumbRect.midX, y: self.selectionUIView.center.y)
        }) { (isCompleted) in
            self.textView.text = "Sachin Tendulkar is scored 100 runs"
        }
    }

            $stmt->execute();
        }

    }
}

A: You have an error in your MySQL query. If the prepared statement couldn't be created the prepare() method will returns false. From the documentation of the prepare() method:

Return Values
mysqli_prepare() returns a statement object or FALSE if an error occurred.

The error message will be stored in the error field of your MySQLi connection object. Always add an error handling when you try to send a query or create a prepared statement.

A: I believe you have an error in your SQL which @Progman pointed out in his answer. I believe the mistake is you have 'users' when it is supposed to be `users` which could cause it to fail. Change your SQL to what I have below and let me know if it works.
INSERT INTO `users` (username, password, email, referr) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)


I love how different all those books look and sound.
Should I give it comets instead of stars?
Remember I said let's Beat the Backlist? Well, things happened and half of those were bought for university. Oh and who cares because NEW BOOKS.
I never thought I would nominate a sci-fi book other than 1984 as my book of the month but The Demolished Man had me hooked with an original idea, a great writing and those … special protagonists! Forget the ugly cover, this is good!
Here's how my January went. Nothing fantastic to review, but progress was made nonetheless… How were those cold weeks for you? How many books did you manage to read? Buy? Not buy?
I haven't read any of these ones, but I have been intending to read The Raven Cycle series for sure.
Excellent writing and awesome characters 🙂 But the plot can be a bit slow and I've been on a rollercoaster with this series!
You've read 8 books in January, that's a nice number of reads ! I've actually read one of your mentions in the New Books list and it'll be a 5 star review (in 3 weeks) so you've got a winner among them as far as I'm concerned. I've read 4, bought 4 and received 4 physical copies (or 5 I don't know). So one step forward, 2 steps back haha :-). Happy reading in February!
Only 6 books read in fact! But it's not that bad because Crusoe took me like 8 days, haha! Oooh I'm curious!!I can't wait for that mysterious review!!! I sure won't buy much more paperback because my budget doesn't allow it for the moment but Amazon still has a few nice deals 🙂 Happy reading!!
Looks like a great January over all! And I've added The Demolished Man to my TBR 🙂 It sounds fantastic!
I read 7 books this month and bought 15.
Nice!! 😀 I'm still trying to figure out how to squeeze in more books into my days!
Nice variety of books on this list! And you did great compared to me this month. Because of that stinking flu I was only able to read (I think) 3 books in January. Ah well… hoping to do better in February!
Variety is my new favorite word 😀 Reading is so much better with differnt skies 🙂 Three books is better than none! You'll get your revenge in February, go girl!!
Damn you should have told me I would have started!!!!!
I forgot that you were at the same point in the series as I was…. I'm going to cry now.
We'll discuss Blink 😀 It looks amazing!
Hahahahahahaha! Wait until you see my new rating system symbol, you'll love them!!
Great recap Donna. It seemed like you managed to get through quite a few books over the course of this month, both in terms of reading them and buying them. I always end up a little jealous of how much you manage to read and buy each month, please tell me your secrets because I can never get through this many myself!
Yeah, I'm really happy how January turned out bookish wise, and with some new blogging decisions, it was quite busy. I'll gradually stop buying books as my budget is getting tighter but I have enough to read for the next two years, haha! My secret is to jump on $0.99 Amazon deals only these days, and I have a person who loves offering me paperbacks so that helps. But I've been feeling a bit bad about buying so much.
The Raven King is waiting on my nightstand, I'll literally jump on it as soon as I've caught up with blog tour reads!!!
Oh I can imagine, I seem to have been a lot busier recently and I'm pretty sure that this year's blogging for me is going to be a lot different from last years.
Oh that's a shame about having to tighten your budget when it comes to book buying, but at least you have ways around it which is the important thing! I need to start checking out some of the £0.99 deals on Amazon UK.

Westminister hears about Skye TV success
BBC Alba's use of Skye as the setting for its drama "Bannan" has been highlighted as one way the Gaelic language channel can deliver not only to audiences but also the Scottish creative economy in general.
The series and its positive impact on the island was raised during a parliamentary event in Westminster. As it is seen as one of a number of productions to provide a boost to the Highland & Islands creative economy. A success which could be built upon if BBC ALBA was strengthened with more original programming, it was claimed.
MG ALBA – which operates BBC ALBA in partnership with the BBC – said the opportunity to achieve parity for the Gaelic language channel with Welsh counterpart S4C had the potential to unlock substantial benefits for independent production sector as well as secure the future success of the channel amongst its core audience.
MPs were told about the desire from Gaelic audiences for the new Royal Charter to enshrine a commitment from the BBC to commit to 10 hours of new programming for BBC ALBA per week – up from the current level of 4.2 hours.
This commitment would bring BBC ALBA into line with S4C, which has enjoyed 10 hours of new programming per week from the BBC for the last 30 years.
It would also have a positive knock-on impact for the creative sector, which continues to benefit heavily from BBC ALBA. During 2015-16, BBC ALBA commissioned 454 hours of content from 26 different production companies.
MG ALBA chairperson, Maggie Cunningham, said: "Since the publication of the White Paper on Charter Renewal, we have seen growing momentum gathering behind a fairer deal for BBC ALBA.
"I'm pleased and grateful that MPs from across the political spectrum attended today to hear the compelling reasons why that deal is needed: to serve our audience properly and to boost the production sector in Scotland.
"BBC ALBA is currently allocated 3p of the £12.13 monthly licence fee. By comparison, the BBC spends more than 10 times that on S4C. However, we are not simply asking for more money. Existing BBC resources could and should be used more effectively to deliver for Gaelic audiences."
Ms Cunningham highlighted last week's publication of the Scotland Annual Review 2015-16 by the BBC Trust as evidence for the growing demand for improved BBC ALBA content.
She continued: "BBC ALBA has been an outstanding success since it launched in 2008 but it is clear that the channel has now reached a juncture where it needs more resources to continue its development. We have a repeat rate of 74% and it needs to be tackled.
"The recent BBC Trust Annual Review report acknowledged that whilst the channel is continuing to outperform viewership targets, it suffers from under-funding which may not be sustainable in the longer term.
"It is our firm belief that one mechanism to address this issue is by increased sharing of content from other BBC departments. We have seen excellent examples such as the Hebrides series that was successful across both BBC ALBA and BBC Scotland.
"This is not to say that BBC ALBA simply requires more content handed down from the main channels - a more responsive system of programme-making within the BBC may allow us to collaborate far easier across a range of genres including children's programming, music and documentaries. Increasing original content to 10 hours per week does not have to mean a hugely increased pot of cash."
Ms Cunningham added: "The channel has had a very positive impact on the independent production sector: around half of all independent production commissions in Scotland are made by BBC ALBA and a recent economic impact report confirmed that almost 300 jobs result from MG ALBA's activities, 40% of which are based in the Highlands and Islands. This includes BBC ALBA drama Bannan which has undertaken the majority of its production on the Isle of Skye.
"We are determined to improve even further on that and we are determined to ensure the next generation of creative talent has a platform to flourish. With a better base of original programming from the BBC for the channel – some of which may be conceived in cooperation with independent producers – there is more scope for enhancing Scotland's creative sector and the economic benefits that brings."

Donald Glover and Phoebe Waller-Bridge to Star in Mr. & Mrs. Smith Series
Donald Glover and Phoebe Waller-Bridge have signed up to play the titular roles in an Amazon Studios TV adaptation of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, a 2005 film starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie as married suburban assassins. Variety reports that Glover and Waller-Bridge will also serve as executive producers on the series.
Guava Island, Glover's music-centric film with Rihanna, was an Amazon Original. Waller-Bridge created and starred in the Prime Video series Fleabag. The two also shared scenes in Disney's 2018 film Solo: A Star Wars Story; Glover played Lando Calrissian, and Waller-Bridge a droid named L3-37.
Last year, Glover reunited with the cast of his former NBC show Community in a virtual table read benefitting COVID-19 relief efforts. His last album, 3.15.20, was released in March.

April 26 – National Pretzel Day
Five Food Finds about Pretzels
The first pretzel was created in 610 A.D. by a monk in southern France or northern Italy. It was originally called a 'pretiola' and was renamed 'pretzel' later when the idea migrated to Germany and Austria.
In 1861, pretzel twisting was the second highest-paying job in the Philadelphia region. Today, machines do the twisting, although at some artisan shops, tourists can still see it done the old-fashioned way.
The birthplace of the hard pretzel was Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The pretzel, or bretzel as it was called then, first came to America in 1710 with Palatine German immigrants (from the Rhineland) who settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania and became known, incorrectly, as the "Pennsylvania Dutch."
In the 18th century, German children would wear pretzel necklaces at the beginning of a new year for prosperity, health and good fortune.
In the 17th century, pretzels were known as a marriage knot. During a wedding ceremony, a couple would wish upon a pretzel, break it (like a wishbone), and eat it to signify their oneness. It is speculated that the term, "tying the knot," originated in Switzerland in 1614 during a wedding between two prominent families.
1785 John James Audubon was born. Ornithologist, naturalist and artist, known mainly for his paintings and sketches of North American birds.
1877 Minnesota held a state day of prayer to plead for an end to a 4 year plague of Rocky Mountain locusts. In southwestern Minnesota, locusts had been eating crops, trees, tobacco, fence posts, leather, dead animals, sheep's wool – everything but the mortgage. Two days later a snowstorm moved through and the locusts were never seen again. No one knows what caused the locust plague, nor why the Rocky Mountain locust became extinct after the plague.
1947 Pete Ham of the music group 'Badfinger' was born
1962 'Mashed Potato Time' by Dee Dee Sharp is #1 on the charts.
1986 Chernobyl nuclear plant in the Ukraine explodes. The worst nuclear disaster in history. In addition to the human toll, agriculture and livestock was contaminated by radiation in large areas of Europe for years to come.
1989 Lucille Ball died. Two of the funniest food related comedy routines ever done were the chocolate factory and the grape stomping episodes from her TV show, 'I Love Lucy.'
2005 A herd of buffalo escaped from a farm and wandered around a Baltimore, Maryland suburb disrupting traffic, and shutting down several major highways. Police eventually herded them onto a nearby tennis court.
2006 Chicago banned the sale of foie gras.

"And a headwind on the way back. Uphill," he noted.
The forecast for today showed 100% chance of rain early this morning, but the winds (15-25mph, according to my weather app) appeared to be blowing the clouds past before they could darken and dump on us and blue skies beckoned. The whipping of the tree branches discouraged me a bit, though.
Rain is only discomfort but wind means work. And boy, did I work on my ride today. Seattle may not be Ellensburg, where the trees lean all the time, but with the water effects the wind gets quite strong.
My route involves some tacking back and forth, so sometimes I had a crosswind and sometimes a headwind. I never, ever had a tailwind — it was work-work-work the entire 10.5 miles.
A strong wind at the wrong angle creates a certain sense of insecurity in a turn; the gusts caught my bike like a sail. On the downhills I tucked like a racer to try to minimize my personal windcatcher size. The biggest unfairness of wind is that it steals the acceleration on a downhill that you earned by climbing an uphill.
Occasionally it might die down to a bit of breeze and I'd get a little respite. But when I hit the University Bridge, wow! A strong sideways wind across Lake Union swirled pink petals in mad spirals across the road and my bike swayed and veered in the gusts.
When I got to downtown with its tall buildings I got a bit of shelter as long as I pointed toward Puget Sound. As soon as I turned onto the wind tunnel that is Second Avenue, though…. Usually I fly down the righthand bus lane, the slight downhill giving me the ability to keep up with traffic pretty well. Today I was just glad there were few cars around as the wind pushed me this way and that.
Despite the work, the wind made the air fresh and clean, the sun was shining, and I arrived invigorated by the battle. Maybe I prefer wind to rain after all.

As a kid I have always enjoyed 'pillayar sadhurthi'. Dad and bro are talented enough to make clay idol of vinayagar at home itself. We take mud from our own backyard for this. And when it comes to decoration, that is painting it colourful, I used to help. I loved that part. When the day of celebration comes, we keep two black beads ready and after the 'abishekam' gets over, we insert that in the eye part, after which only vinayagar is officially born.
And not to forget the time when mom sends to gather 'arugampul' – a type of grass- for making a garland for vinayagar. Every day I gather it carefully (only three strands should be there in a sprig) freshly from the fields opposite to our house. Also we go a little far to gather the 'erukkam poo' to make malai, that stays good for few days. I use needle and thread and make that cute garland. We get only the purple variety near our area. But paati says white flower variety is more special for the festival.
I used to sit and watch eagerly what are all the things dad used for abishekam – lemon juice, honey, milk, curd, mashed banana,pure sandal (sandanam), turmeric etc and water in between each item… And not to miss the cute little mouse (moonjoor) also gets all these abishekams. My paati used to assist the whole thing. I feel now Aj misses all those things! In our in-laws house we celebrate the same way, but in a brief manner.
And we make kozhukattais all of us sitting together – mom, dad, bro, paati and me.. Afternoon, just for padayal we make 11 kozhukattai in each and finish the padayal and in the evening we start to make lots for dinner. And we enjoy hot, soft and delicious – it goes in without any counts. And not only the pillayar chadhurthi day, as long as the pillayar is kept at home before its dissolved. Every evening mom makes something to offer the idol. Sundal and appam will be mostly made. Since there will not be any rivers or ponds nearby, we dissolve the idol in a big tub of water kept in our garden and after it gets dissolved super fast (yes super fast as its homemade) we pour the water to the flowering plants that we have in our garden. Sweet memories!
For the dough, bring water to boil with a tsp of sesame oil and let it boil for a minute. Add it to the flour with salt and mix well. Use a spatula for mixing. You may need lots of water. So make sure you boil enough.
After it becomes warm, knead to a smooth dough and keep covered. You can make equal sized balls and keep covered.
For the thenga pooranam, place grated coconut jaggery and elachi powder in a pan, with 2 tblsp of water. Mix in medium flame for 5 minutes, when it starts leaving the sides of pan, switch off the flame.
Make small cups out of the dough, refer this VIDEO for learning how to shape the cup. Fill with the coconut pooranam.
Repeat and finish the kozhukattais and keep covered until steaming. Boil water in steamer and arrange the modaks in the steaming plate and cook for 5 mintues. Or until they are cooked.
You can reduce jaggery quantity as needed to suit your taste. I used little less jaggery than mentioned as I dont like it too sweet.
To get the outer layer soft, its important to boil water well for making the dough. Dough should be almost cooked with the hot water so that you get non sticky pliable dough.
If the dough is not cooked well, you may not be able to make the cups properly and will break while making.
To check if the kozhukattais are done, it will be shiny and changed in colour.
Do not over cook , it may give you rubbery and broken kozhukattais.
If you mix the stufiing in high flame or for more time than needed, then it may turn hard or brittle.
Its so soft and delcious, that you can pop one kozhukattai per mouth and enjoy!
fabulous mothagam..tempting clicks..esp love the last click..
Cute and very attractive mothagams..
Really Nice.. Even i did the channa dal pooranam last year for ganesh chaturthi from ur blog.. this time i'm goin to try this mothagam.. As usual wonderful clicks… More than ur recipes, i'm a great fan of the stories u write before every recipe.. it reminds me of my childhood…!!!
Nice receipe with pics. Thanks for sharing. I'm going to try it for the first time.
Looks so delicious..waiting to make this on 9th.
Awesome clicks.. This is my fav pooranam than ellu & kadala parippu one !
Hi Raks i think there is a difference between mothagam and kozhukkattai. Mothagam is the one which we fry in oil and kozhakkattai is the one which you have showed now..Just wanted to clear my doubt.
Wonderful write up with yummy recipe.
oh, I never knew that, thanks!
Very neatly explained, delicious one and loved your story…Modaks are very cute and very nice clicks!
Cute and yummy mothagam,nice clicks.
Hi raks.. thx a million for ths simple yet superb recipe.. my mothagam turned out to be good! Everyone at home loved it.. Thx again..
Cute looking Mothagam..coconut stuffing is always my fav!
More than the receipe, i seriously enjoyed reading your intro, just took me back to my childhood. Life has been simplified in many ways and that includes tradition.It is a pitty that our children miss out on so many simple things that we enjoyed. Thanks for the post.
Thanks to your helpful instructions I managed to make great mothagams for the very first time. Your recipes never fail to impress my household. Thank you so much.
When i made the kozhukatti after the steam vellum started dripping on the idli plate. Why?
Hi, By 1/2 cup rice or idiyappam flour, how much grams or quantity do you mean?
Sorry I don't have a kitchen scale. My cup holds 240 ml of liquid.
Hi Raks, prepared this for Vinayagar Chathurthi today. My hubby and son liked it very much. I have a doubt. I first prepared pooranam. Then dough. While making kozhukattais the pooranam had become little hard. Why so?
Hi Viji, If you cook the pooranam more than needed time, it turns hard. Cook in medium heat to avoid over cooking. The timing given is just a guidance for rough idea, depending on the environment, vessel, heat, it could vary.


If you are frustrated or discouraged, you need to learn about people who made it big in life 'against all odds'. Nothing really is impossible.
Helen Keller was nineteen months old when an illness left her deaf and blind. She could not speak and developed severe behaviour problems.
Anne Sullivan was an expert, devoted teacher who was also Helen's lifelong companion. Due to her persistence and her vision of recognising high potential, Helen learned to speak, write, read — and sing!
Helen Keller was the first blind and deaf person to earn a bachelor of arts degree from Radcliffe. Helen put life to her words, an autobiography, The Story of My Life. This piece of writing was followed by fourteen books and many articles throughout her life.
She was a lecturer and a public speaker and mastered several international languages.
Thomas Edison failed more than 10,000 times before he created the light bulb and the world is still amazed at that number!
"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work," he said.
Many people told him that he is wasting his time, his faith and confidence were sometimes on the verge of being gone, but he succeeded. He knew what he had imagined was possible. The fruits of his labour were 1093 patents, including the bulb, the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and many more.
Just imagine… if he just gave up on his ideas to try something new, to change the world and help people – what would have been the world's state today? It is his invention that has made our life comfortable and easier.
After a lost battle, Timur, a Mughal emperor lost power and was forced to run and hide.
It was then, that Timur took shelter either in some old ruins, lamenting his fate. While at the ruins, he watched an ant carrying a grain of rice that was at least twice its size up the side of a collapsed wall.
Struggling with its balance and the dimension of its cargo, the ant had to start the climb all over again when it fell back down to the ground, only to get up again.
He kept watching this ant and feeling unhappier and unhappier for himself. This ant, having endeavoured over and over again only to be thrown back every time would have been exhausted and hungry.
But finally, on the 20th attempt, the little ant, succeeded to carry its prize all the way up the wall and on its way back to the nest.
Timur resolved never again lose hope. If an ant can persevere like this, then definitely a man can as well. He defeated his rivals and took control of both his tribe and the rulers of Delhi.
Impossible! Like many other things, we had got used to through the years. To some it has become a lifestyle, an ingrained habit we just can't break if we don't have the right mindset.
So perspire and success will come. Possible!

Q: React warning "export 'GetTheFilteredPosts' was not found in I am trying to export/import two functions:
export function LoadMoreButtonLogic(
  ...
) {
  ...

  return ...
}

export function GetTheFilteredPosts(
  ...
) {
  return (...);
}

And importing them this way in another file:
import { GetTheFilteredPosts } from '@src/components/commons/load-more-button/LoadMoreButton';
import { LoadMoreButtonLogic } from '@src/components/commons/load-more-button/LoadMoreButton';

However I am getting such warnings:
warning "export 'GetTheFilteredPosts' was not found in '@src/components/commons/load-more-button/LoadMoreButton'
warning "export 'LoadMoreButtonLogic' was not found in '@src/components/commons/load-more-button/LoadMoreButton'

But... if I rename the file LoadMoreButton.js to the name of a function exported or I rename the name of the exported function to match the filename, the warning for this function disappears.
@src is setup in jsconfig:
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "@src/*": ["src/*"],
             }
      }
}

as well as in gatsby-config:
'@src': path.join(__dirname, './src'),

And @src is working fine in other components. It is used in tens of places.
If I try the path without @ I get the same:
warning "export 'GetTheFilteredPosts' was not found in '../../../../components/commons/load-more-button/LoadMoreButton'
warning "export 'LoadMoreButtonLogic' was not found in '../../../../components/commons/load-more-button/LoadMoreButton'

What am I doing wrong?
Why can't I export them freely?

The History of St Bede's Primary School and Nursery
After the Second World War an infant school was established in St Bede's Parish. It was housed in the old church buildings, which is now the parish hall. Every morning after mass chairs had to be stacked away in order to clear the space for three classrooms. Pulling partitions across the hall created these classrooms and Mrs Thomas, a Welsh Presbyterian, was responsible for this annexe. After completing their infant education most children transferred to SS Peter and Paul's in Ilford to continue their Primary Education.
In the early 1960s, when Monsignor Christopher Creede came to the parish of St. Bede, one of his main ambitions was to establish a purpose-built infant and junior school. This was achieved when the present school was opened on a previously derelict site on 10th January 1967 with five classrooms ready for use. The first Headteacher was Sister Rosario of the Sisters of Mercy.
Two years later there were seven classes in use which then made it a complete Primary School.
In 1975 Sr Gertrude succeeded Sr Rosario as Headteacher and following Sr Gertrude's sudden death Sr Joan was appointed in 1983.
In 1993 the community of the Sisters of Mercy and parents of the school raised funds to build a resource room and Deputy Head's office in the infant block and an extension to the staffroom in the junior block.
In 1995 Mrs McGrath was appointed the first lay Headteacher of the school.
In September 1998 the infant school increased to two forms of entry. In September 1999 the middle school, Years 3 and 4, became two forms of entry and in September 2000 the upper school, Years 5 and 6 completed this expansion.
Three new classrooms were constructed to provide extra accommodation and a nursery block was also built.
In December 1999 an area of the school was remodelled to house an ICT suite and a specialist teaching area. In January 2004 further remodelling work took place including a new SEN suite, library, waiting area, Middle and Upper KS2 small teaching rooms, Headteacher's office and a second outside play area for Reception.
In August 2006 the infant school was remodelled and extended to provide an accessible toilet and a non-class based group room.
The school provides facilities to accommodate 420 children in the school and 52 children in the nursery.
In 2012, Mr Nott was appointed Headteacher and Mrs Roberts, the Deputy Headteacher.

Merck Receives FDA Approval for New GONAL-f® Prefilled Pen
dinsdag 14 november 2017 00:12 Economie
DARMSTADT, Germany, November 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
- New pen is easy-to-learn and easy-to-use, supporting the one in six couples
affected by infertility in the U.S.[1]
- Insights of patients, nurses and doctors helped to evolve the product
Merck, a leading science and technology company, today announced that the company received approval for a new version of GONAL-f(R) (follitropin alfa injection) prefilled pen from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Known as GONAL-f(R) RFF Redi-jectTM* prefilled pen in the U.S. and originally approved by the FDA in 2013, the new version of the pen is easy-to-learn and easy-to-use.

"Aspiring to be an integrated fertility treatment partner, our strategy focuses on developing user-friendly treatment options for patients," said Luciano Rossetti, Head of Global Research and Development, at the biopharma business of Merck. "We understand that the best drivers for innovation come from insights from the people using our products. Their advice was a significant factor in the development of the new version of the GONAL-f (R) prefilled pen."
To date, an estimated 2.5 million babies have been brought to the world with the help of Merck fertility products and services.[2] GONAL-f(R) is the only gonadotropin that comes in prefilled, ready-to-use pen in the U.S.[3] The new GONAL-f(R) pen, like its predecessor, enables a fine-tuning of treatment allowing for minimum increments of 12.5 IU to titrate a wide range of doses and precisely target the dosing to patients' needs.[4] In addition, its new design features include an amendment to the dose display window for readability.
Patients suffering from infertility are a key focus for Merck as the company continuously seeks to expand its fertility offering. The latest version of the GONAL-f(R) prefilled pen is the most recent addition to Merck's growing portfolio to support women and couples faced with infertility in the U.S., where one in six couples is affected by infertility.[1]

Whoop! I've reached 250 posts on my little wedding blog and I havent even finished my recaps yet!
I thought it was time to take a break from wedding recaps and share some of my recent Etsy purchases! Although I'm no longer looking for wedding related items, I still love browsing on Etsy. I wanted some new earrings so thought I would take a look and I ended up with a couple of pairs and a few other things!
I love the earrings and the Manhattan prints; we just need to get a new frame so that we can get them up on the wall, along with our framed wedding print and the picture of our venue that my lovely friend did for us as a wedding gift.
Oh my gosh, I am in love with those earrings! I adore pearls and anything purple, so I may just have to head over to Etsy and check them out.
The second pair of earrings are beautiful! I shall have to have a look at her shop!
Those second earrings are beautiful. Eeek I've been staying away from etsy for the sake of our bank balance.
Brilliant purchases. I haven't made it past the wedding section of Etsy, and I think that if I did, it would spell disaster for my poor, creaking credit card.

Poipet ( ) is a boomtown on the Cambodian-Thai border, in Poipet Municipality, Banteay Meanchey Province. It is a key crossing point between the two countries, and also extremely popular as a gambling destination as gambling is popular, but mostly illegal in Thailand.

Poipet is adjacent to the town of Aranyaprathet on the Thai side of the border. The town came into existence only quite recently for the express purpose of border trade; Sisophon had always been the primary urban center in what had been an agricultural area. Poipet's population has increased from 43,366 in the 1998 census to 89,549 in the 2008 census, making it the fourth most populous settlement in Cambodia just ahead of Sihanoukville and larger than its provincial capital Sisophon.

Transport
The Poipet border is a terminus of the Cambodia railway system, though in 2006 restoring of a link from Poipet to the present Cambodian Railways railhead at Sisophon was proposed. In the fall of 2008, an agreement was prepared to have an Australian company carry out this work. In 2009, Thailand passed legislation to extend the railway from Aranyaprathet to Poipet, and in 2018 the railway line has been reactivated.

On 22 December 2022, Prime Minister Hun Sen said that the government has been conducting studies on high-speed railways connecting domestically and to neighbouring countries. "We are conducting studies on high-speed railways connecting Phnom Penh to Preah Sihanouk province and to the border with Thailand."

Casinos in the city
There is a strip of casinos and hotels between the Cambodian and Thai passport control counters, enabling Thais and other foreigners to gamble in Cambodia without needing to go through Cambodian immigration. In Cambodia, gambling is illegal for Cambodian citizens but not for holders of foreign passports. There is another border on the Cambodian side of this strip area that one needs to pass before being free to travel within the rest of the country.

On 28 December 2022, a fire at the Grand Diamond City Hotel and Casino killed 27 people and injured dozens of others.

Balmain is designing custom looks for this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Shanghai, and the models won't be the only ones wearing the collab. A #VSxBalmain collection will also be available to shop in-store and online on November 29, the day after the show's broadcast.
The lingerie brand announced the major collaboration today on Instagram and posted a graphic on its website. This is apparently the first time VS has ever teamed up with a high fashion brand for a range to sell through retail.
Balmain's creative director Olivier Rousteing doesn't stray far from VS. He's previously attended the brand's over-the-top presentations, and is apt to cast its models for his own runway shows. Just last week, VS Angels like Alessandra Ambrosio, Josephine Skriver, and Elsa Hosk walked in his Spring 2018 presentation during Paris Fashion Week.
We can't wait to see what he has in store for Shanghai. Considering Rousteing's signature steamy designs for Balmain—à la bodycon silhouettes, cage cut-outs, shimmery fabrics, and luxe embellishments—expect the VS runway to get a few degrees hotter this year.

Judge Orders Google To Turn Over Jussie Smollett's Emails
CHICAGO (AP) — A judge has ordered Google to turn over a year's worth of Jussie Smollett's emails, private messages, photographs and location data to a special prosecutor who is looking into why prosecutors abruptly dismissed criminal charges against the actor.
On Wednesday, the Chicago Tribune reported that it had obtained two search warrants submitted by special prosecutor Dan Webb and signed off by Cook County Judge Michael Toomin last month.

RUSS RANT: Jussie Smollett Is NOT a Martyr [WATCH]
Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx's office filed and quickly dropped 16 counts of disorderly conduct against Smollett for allegedly staging a January 2019 attack in downtown Chicago and lying about it to police. Toomin appointed Webb months later and the warrants offer the first public hints about what he has been investigating.
LIKE US ON FACEBOOK. FOLLOW US ON TWITTER AND INSTAGRAM
When the charges were filed, Chicago police alleged the black and openly gay Smollett — unhappy with his salary and hoping to promote his career — paid two brothers to stage what appeared to be a racist and homophobic attack, in which one of the men looped a rope fashioned as a noose around his neck.
In the warrants, Webb seeks information from the Google accounts of Smollett and his manager, including unsent draft emails and deleted messages. He also requests files from their Google Drive cloud storage services, Google Voice texts, and web browsing history.
Webb has not publicly discussed the investigation and Smollett has maintained his innocence. But the fact the warrants seek data between November 2018 and November 2019 suggests investigators could be trying to support the original police allegation that Smollett planned and helped stage a fake attack.
It remains unclear if Google has turned over the information. In approving the warrants, Toomin ordered Google not to disclose the order, saying that doing so "may jeopardize an ongoing criminal investigation". A Google spokesman told the Tribune that he could not comment on requests for records from law enforcement.
Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi confirmed the department is conducting 'follow-ups" of its initial investigation but he declined to comment further. An attorney who tried to block the appointment of the special prosecutor and another attorney representing Smollett in a federal civil case did not immediately return calls for comment.

TGS reprints brings you three historic books on the Tarot in one volume.
The true Tarot is symbolism; it speaks no other language and offers no other signs. Given the inward meaning of its emblems, they do become a kind of alphabet which is capable of indefinite combinations and makes true sense in all. On the highest plane it offers a key to the Mysteries, in a manner which is not arbitrary and has not been read in, But the wrong symbolical stories have been told concerning it, and the wrong history has been given in every published work which so far has dealt with the subject. It has been intimated by two or three writers that, at least in respect of the meanings, this is unavoidably the case, because few are acquainted with them, while these few hold by transmission under pledges and cannot betray their trust.
The suggestion is fantastic on the surface for there seems a certain anti-climax in the proposition that a particular interpretation of fortune-telling--l'art de tirer les cartes--can be reserved for Sons of the Doctrine. The fact remains, notwithstanding, that a Secret Tradition exists regarding the Tarot, and as there is always the possibility that some minor arcana of the Mysteries may be made public with a flourish of trumpets, it will be as well to go before the event and to warn those who are curious in such matters that any revelation will contain only a third part of the earth and sea and a third part of the stars of heaven in respect of the symbolism. This is for the simple reason that neither in root-matter nor in development has more been put into writing, so that much will remain to be said after any pretended unveiling. The guardians of certain temples of initiation who keep watch over mysteries of this order have therefore no cause for alarm.
This pack of cards, in the opinion of many investigators, represents the Egyptian hieroglyphic book of seventy-eight tablets, which came to us almost miraculously.
The term "Tarot", or "Tarocchi", is applied to a pack of 78 cards, consisting of four suits of 14 cards each (there being one more court card than in the ordinary packs--the Cavalier, Knight, or Horseman), and 22 symbolical picture-cards answering for trumps. These latter are numbered from 1 to 21 inclusive, the 22nd card being marked Zero, 0. The designs of these trumps are extremely singular, among them being such representations as Death, the Devil, the Last Judgment, &c.
"Upon a table or altar, at the height of the breast of the Egyptian Magus (or Hierophant), were on one side a book or assemblage of cards or plates of gold (the Tarot), and on the other a vase, etc." This idea is further dilated upon by P. Christian (the disciple of Eliphas Levi), in his "Histoire de la Magie," to which I shall have occasion to refer later. The great exponents of the Tarot, Court de Gè belin, Levi, and Etteilla, have always assigned to the Tarot a Qabalistico-Egyptian origin, and this I have found confirmed in my own researches into this subject, which have extended over several years.


A pressure system approximately 100 miles off the Californian coast has the Clipper Race teams battling in light airs, as they search for every advantage with wind speeds dropping to as little as 0.4 knots.
The Race Viewer is a colourful display of zig-zags as the teams tack and gybe their way south, using what wind and current they can to ensure they keep moving in the direction of Panama. At the front, Garmin lies 10 nautical miles ahead of LMAX Exchange, but as of 0900 UTC it polled a speed of 0.7 knots.
"Yesterday we made a run inshore looking for a bit more breeze. It seemed to pay off and now we have managed to squeeze a few miles ahead after making decent progress with a good wind angle through the night. Winds are now very light however and progress at times can be frustratingly slow," explains Garmin Skipper Ash Skett.
Derry~Londonderry~Doire lies in third place with only 8 nautical miles between Mission Performance in fourth and PSP Logistics in seventh. PSP Logistics Skipper Max Stunell, says his crew is also focusing on the positives as they work to eke out the best possible speed while surrounded by their rivals.
"With a fantastic day's sailing yesterday it seemed almost too good to be true and it was. After a fickle night of lightening wind, we have been in a drifting competition with the surrounding boats ever since. With the wind not due to fill in anytime soon it really is about scratching out 0.1 of a knot here or there.
"The grey that we had become accustomed to on the previous race has also returned but thankfully the temperature has remained comfortable on deck and the crew are in good spirits. As I write this, the wind has dropped to 0.4 of a knot...," he added.
The fortunes of the fleet could be about to change according to Clipper Race Meteorologist Simon Rowell, who himself is a former Race Skipper and understands the frustrations of the teams in these conditions.
One team that has so far escaped the wind hole that has engulfed the fleet is twelfth-placed ClipperTelemed+, which started the PSP Logistics Panama Cup several hours later than its opponents due to last minute repairs. Seeing the other teams sail into a wind hole up ahead could give Skipper Matt Mitchell and his crew the opportunity to make up some miles.
"Over the last few hours the wind started to fill so we are now sailing with our lightweight spinnaker and making decent progress. We have just gybed as we were in danger of heading too far west.
"Overnight the wind should pick up and apparently there is a front hanging around somewhere, although it seems to have stayed away from us for the time being. It has got a bit cloudy though so we no longer have the horizon to horizon blanket of stars that always leaves me with a feeling of awe," Matt added.
With the wind forecast to pick up soon, who will take advantage of it first and how will the positions have changed by this time tomorrow in the PSP Logistics Panama Cup? Stay tuned to the Race Viewer to find out.

13 standardised state-of-the-art ship designs that are suitable for large barge haulage on river Ganga (National Waterway- 1) were made public by Inland Waterway Authority of India (IWAI). The introduction of India's first standarised modern ship design will help overcome the unique navigation challenges the river throws due to its complex river morphology, hydraulics, acute bends, shifting channels, meanders and current. Not only this will mark a milestone in the growth of the country's Inland Water Transport (IWT) sector but it will also serve as an enabler for domestic shipbuilding industry working on island vessels and open a huge possibility for cargo and passenger movement on the National Waterway-1.
For capacity augmentation of navigation on NW-1 (Varanasi- Haldia stretch), the government is implementing Jal Marg Vikas Project (JMVP) at a cost of Rs 53.6 billion with the technical assistance and investment support of the World Bank. For the shipbuilding industry, the new designs will translate into a savings of Rs 3-5 million in the building of a vessel.
M/s DST Germany, which specialises in low draft and high carrying capacity vessels will make various categories of dry and liquid bulk carriers, Ro- Ro vessels, car carrier, container carrier, LNG carrier and Tug Barge flotilla for the new designs. With about 350 cars on five deck car carrier, these vessels can sail even in depths of about 2 m. Some of the designs would enable movement of bulk cargo carriers with a capacity of 2500 tonne at 3 m depth, thereby, removing almost 150 truckloads of pressure from the road or one full rail rake with the plying of just one such vessel.

· MERS-CoV- Animal-Human Interface Investigation in Camel Markets, Abu Dhabi, UAE.
Epidemiologic features of transmission of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) are not well understood. A zoonotic origin of MERS-CoV has been speculated based on presence of closely related viruses in bats. Several human cases of MERS-CoV infection have reported contact with camels or their environments during the 14 day period prior to symptom onset. However, whether or not transmission of MERS-CoV between camels and humans occurs, the directionality of such transmission remain unclear. The research is intended to address the following three key questions regarding the epidemiology of MERS-CoV at the animal-human interface:
1. Is there transmission of MERS-CoV between camels to humans?
2. What type of camel contact is associated with MERS-CoV infection in humans?
3. What are the prevalence, risk factors, and natural history of MERS-CoV infection in camels?
4. Seasonality of MERS-CoV in camel markets.
· Development and validation of brucellosis diagnostic test in camels.
None of the currently available tests for detection of Brucella antibodies is validated to be used in sera of camels. The ongoing research is aimed to develop a simple, fast and cost-effective test for the analysis of a large number of samples and could be useful tool in the epidemiological surveillances of brucellosis in camels.

For the past three years, he worked on turning the classic old residence into a sparkling-new modern masterpiece. After putting in millions of dollars and countless hours, he's satisfied with the result.
With the hard work, Lewis has put the Los Angeles–area home on the market for $7.95 million.
This isn't the first time he's bought and sold this particular house, according to public records.
In 2003, several years before he made his TV debut, he bought the property for $860,000. He flipped it a year later for $1.75 million. In 2015, he bought it again, for $2,484,000—and then proceeded to change almost everything about it. He even added reinforced steel and piles to the foundation, making the hillside home sturdier than ever.
The exterior is now distinguished by a limestone facade and all-new metal grid windows and doors.
The multilevel home now measures 4,334 square feet and has three bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms.
The master bedroom features unobstructed hillside views on two sides, and those vistas can be enjoyed from either the bed or the private patio. The bedroom area also offers an elegant black-and-white bath and a walk-in closet with an island.
The kitchen is equipped with two islands, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, a wine refrigerator, built-in espresso maker, and black marble countertops.
The kitchen and dining area seamlessly open to a 400-square-foot patio with fire pit and awe-inspiring views of the city.
The outdoor decks—including those that surround the infinity pool—are made of suspended porcelain with invisible drainage. Reclaimed wood flooring in a herringbone pattern run throughout the home. And to clean those surfaces, there's a new central vacuum system.
Among the state-of-the-art tech features are a Sonos audio system, high-definition security cameras, and automated lighting.
Lewis, 48, is a native of Southern California, and his reality renovation show "Flipping Out" is in its 11th season on Bravo. The home is listed by Carrie Berkman Lewis of Pacific Union International and Boni Bryant of Compass.

I have a really simple vbscript to run WinSCP that doesn't error...but it clearly doesn't run either.
objShell.Run """C:\Program Files\WinSCP\winscp.exe /console /command """ & """option batch abort""" & " " & """option confirm on""" & " " & """option transfer ascii""" & """open sftp://username:password@mycompany.com""" & """get textfile.txt C:\file\path\textfile.txt""" & " " & """close""" & " " & """exit"""
Re: Simple VBScript syntax error?
It's really an unnecessary mess with all those " and &.
Anyway, you are definitely missing a space between the "open transfer ascii" and "open..." commands as well as between "open..." and "get...".
