Peter Whitehead
Peter Whitehead was a wealthy amateur who participated in 11 grands prix. He won Le Mans with Peter Walker in 1951. Peter was killed in 1959 on the Tour de France, when, with his brother Graham driving, their Jaguar crashed off a bridge into a ravine at Lasalle. Graham survived.
Peter Whitehead was born in Menston, Ilkley, Yorkshire and came from a wealthy background, which gave him the means with which to indulge his passion for motor sport. He started racing in a Riley in 1934 and, the following year, switched to an ERA. He finished third in the Limerick GP, a Formula Libre race, which was the first major result for Geoffrey Taylor's Alta firm.
In 1936 he finished third in the Donington Grand Prix, sharing his ERA with Peter Walker. In 1938 Whitehead took the ERA to Australia and there scored his first major victory, winning the Australian GP at Bathurst.
During the war he joined the RAF but once hostilities ceased he was back racing, taking his ERA to second place in the British Empire Trophy on the Isle of Man in the summer of 1947. Later that year he raced at Lausanne as well. In 1948 he survived a plane crash at London's Croydon Aerodrome though he was seriously injured. He had been preparing to fly to Milan to arrange the purchase of a Ferrari 125.
In 1949, after convincing Enzo Ferrari to sell him a Ferrari 125 Formula 1 car, he became the first Ferrari F1 privateer. With the grren painted 125, he won the Czech GP, becoming the first Briton to win a major race abroad since Seaman. He almost won the French GP as well but gearbox problems meant he finished third.
In 1950 he won the Jersey Road Race and the Ulster Trophy but the biggest win of his career came at the Le Mans 24 Hours in 1951 sharing a Jaguar with Peter Walker.
He continued to race and win in Formula 2 events all across Europe in 1951 and 1952 with an Alta, a Cooper-Alta and his Ferrari. However in 1953 he decided to concentrate on sports cars, sharing victory with Stirling Moss in the Reims 12 Hours with a C-Type Jaguar and a second win in the event with Ken Wharton the following year in a D Type. This was the first win for a D Type and it was a convincing one at that, with the cars taking a clean sweep of 1-2-3 in the race. The Jaguar Heritage Trust has errected a bronze plaque over the pit, commemorating the achievement.
The D Type, registration OKV3, later belonged to John Melville-Smith and, later still, to Martin Morris. John Roberts had the opportunity to drive it in the wet at Castle Combe. Apparently it understeared badly, particularly through Camp corner, Martin's advice was to "keep your foot in it, it will come right"! Though somewhat sceptical, particularly bearing in mind the car, Roberts took his advice and Martin was proved correct. Fortunately it was dry for the race and John had fun holding off some Aston Martin Zagato's that were arguably somewhat better suited to UK club racing.
In 1953 he also won the 12 Hours of Hyeres and added single-seater victories in the Lady Wigram Trophy in New Zealand and in the Rand GP in South Africa.
In the 1958 Le Mans 24 Hours he shared the second-placed Aston Martin with his half-brother Graham then, just a couple of months later, Peter lost his life during the Tour de France. Their Jaguar, with Graham at the wheel, crashed over a bridge parapet into a ravine, injuring Graham but killing Peter.
The following drivers were born on the same day as Peter Whitehead (19th - July)
Hal Cole 1912-1970
Peter Whitehead 1914-1958
Paul Emery 1916-1992
George Eaton 1945

Malcolm Andrews' second and third chapters (from 'Landscape and Western Art', see previous post) are 'Subject or Setting?' and 'Landscape as Amenity'. The notes I've made lurch from a quote taken from page 10 to another from page 78, missing out both of these chapters completely. I guess I found little to chime with my specific interest. However, that's not to say that I learnt little.
Chapter 2 is subtitled 'Landscape and Renaissance Painting' and provides a description of how landscape elements crept incrementally into pre-existing images of religious, historical or mythological subjects. The answer to the question of the chapter's title ('Subject or Setting?) was for a long time unequivocally 'setting': at this early stage landscape was peripheral, ornamental, a lowly adjunct (parergon) to the principal content of a painting (its 'proper' subject or Argument). Andrews presents an extended study of a single subject, Saint Jerome in the desert, to illustrate how landscape functioned in its subservient role and how, later, it gained a great weight of intricate allegorical symbolism to convey meaning.
Chapter 3 explores how landscape (real and pictorial) came to serve as a 'pleasant place' (locus amoenus) in which to find spiritual refreshment. Links between representations of nature and Renaissance gardens underscore how landscape 'for landscape's sake' came to dominate over a previously narrative function. The chapter ends with a survey of later developments of the Enlightenment thinking born of the Renaissance mixture of 'literary pastoral, landscape painting, gardening, the locus amoenus' etc.

Step 1: Choose the best website hosting platform.
Before you start worrying about color schemes and domain names you have to first decide what platform you are going to build your website with.
The objective of this guide is to give to you an easy guide to building your first website regardless of what you choose to start with; well almost all of the available services out in the world today should incorporate basically the same principles.
What do I mean by a "platform"?
Back in the days creating a website required prior knowledge of fancy codes (prerequisites: HTML, CSS and even Flash) and they require a great amount of investment in time to learn and were very challenging to master.
HOLD IT! Today much of it has changed and the past has contributed to much of what is today's conception that creating a website from scratch is difficult or requires a lot of coding and design skills - but rest assured that is no longer true!!
IN 2015, there have been a plethora of content management systems (CMS) like WordPress that have been making website creation accessible to almost anyone who have an interest to do so.
A CMS is a user-friendly platform for building websites and managing your own online content, instead of using a bunch of complicated HTML pages, constructed using pure code.
Amongst the most popular website building platforms are Wordpress (50.07%), Drupal (17.07%), and Joomla (6.44%). Just from those you can see that half of the internet is running on WordPress.
FREE. There isn't any other reason that beats that! The other part to it is WordPress is beginner-friendly, powerful, mobile-friendly, and a massive support community. There are others too such as Drupal which is popular with web developers and experienced coders but comes with a steep learning curve that makes it a terrible experience for beginners, and Joomla which still requires a little bit of technical coding to make it work the way you want, but this works fantastic for online stores.
For beginners, WordPress is a good place to start.
and in Step 3 you will be guided through a step by step process to install and customize a WordPress website.
Website Hosting for your website.
As you are already aware the WordPress platform itself is free, but a domain name and hosting will cost you a fee. For a more targeted approach to your Malaysian SME business obtaining a www.yourname.com is relatively inexpensive and should cost you from RM55 onwards a year depending on the availability of the domain name.
Having your own hosting will ensure that your website loads quickly and won't go down for hours at a time (this is really important for everyone who visits your pages).
Where to get a domain name and hosting.
You can get your domain name from here and hosting from here.
It is affordable, has good customer service and comes with some good deals. When you get a domain name you will also get a personal email account(s): you@yourname.com which is more professional sounding than a generic Gmail or Yahoo Address.
Step 3: Set up your WordPress Website.
Once you have setup your domain name and hosting you should be well on your way. Now is the time to get your website up and running. The first thing you will need to do is install WordPress to your domain.
Now open the wp-config.php (with notepad for example) and fill the following lines: (1) define ('DB_NAME','database_name_here'); - Database name (if you don't know it ask this from your hosting support), (2) define ('DB_USER', 'username_here'); - Your hosting username, (3) define ('DB_PASSWORD','password_here'; - Your hosting password. After you have filled the gaps, save the file.
Now log into your hosting ftp (download FileZilla for that). The FTP address is usually ftp.yourdomain.com, username and password are the same that you used to register your host.
If there is any file name "index" - delete it. After that upload all the files from your WordPress folder to your FTP server. (You should be able to use "drag n drop" function in FileZilla.
You should see a form and fill it in and you are ready!
This is why you need a theme. Go to your name.com/wp-admin and you should be able to find over 1500 free themes, along the side bar on the left for "Appearance" and then "Themes".
If you want something more professional you could find a professional website designer or head over to ThemeForest.net where there is a really big library of themes to choose from with varying costs!
But before you do that take time to browse free themes as they are very professional.
IMPORTANT: Changing themes won't delete your previous posts, pages and content. You can change themes as often as you want without having to worry about losing what you have created previously.
How do you add content and create new pages?
Easy just look along the sidebar in the WordPress Dashboard for "Pages" > "Add New" and once you have clicked on it you will find a screen that looks a lot like Microsoft Word. Add text, images and more to build the page you want and then save it when you are done.
Adding pages is similar to adding new postings. Click "Appearance" > "Menus" in the sidebar of the WordPress Dashboard and find the page you have created and add it to the list by clicking the checkbox next to it and then "Add to Menu".
Some people have frustrations where they say that their frustrated that their home page looks like a blog post. You can fix that by making your home page "static:.
A static page is a page that doesn't change as the name implies, and unlike a blog where the first few new articles show up at the top every time, a "static" page will show the same content overtime someone comes to the site - very similar to a home page you have designed.
Go to "Settings" > "Reading" and choose a static page that you have created. "Front Page" denotes your home page, "Posts Page" is the front page of your blog (if your entire site isn't a blog).
If you don't choose a static page on your own, WordPress will take your latest posts and start showing them on your homepage.
"Plugins" are extensions that are built to expand WordPress capabilities, adding features and functions to your sites.
Basically shortcuts to add to your website without having to build the feature from scratch.
How to start installing a new plugin?
Go to "Plugins" > "Add New" and simply start searching. There are over 25,000 different free plugins so you have got a lot to choose from!.
Installation is easy - once you find a plugin you like just click "Install".
Congratulations - you are ready to launch!
If you have followed the steps in this guide, you should now have a fully-functional WordPress website!
Share this page if you like it and if you have any issues leave a comment and I will try to solve them for you!

Party Profile: Justice & Construction Party
byGeorge Grant
The Justice & Construction party's banner
By Umar Khan.
Tripoli, 30 June:
The Justice & Construction party's banner
The Justice & Construction party was created in March of this year and is led by Mohammed . . .[restrict]Sawan, a Misratan and former political prisoner under Qaddafi. It is fielding 73 candidates, making it the biggest of all the parties.
Justice & Construction was formed by the Muslim Brotherhood on the principle that the party will also be open to independent members. Sawan was elected as the head of the party following a two day conference in Tripoli. Justice & Construction is a religious party that uses Islam as the frame of reference in all areas of life.
The party has an advisory council (Shura) of 45 members that determines the direction of the party and makes executive decisions. The party's 73 candidates have been fielded across 19 lists all over Libya for the elections. It has emerged as a national party with its branches extending to all the cities of Libya.

An academy with a difference in Tripoli
Prior to the revolution, the Muslim Brotherhood was banned in Libya for over three decades and its members were pursued by the former regime. After the start of the 17 February uprising, the organization says it took an active part on all fronts and many of its members were part of the NTC. The party will rely on its past struggle against the regime to entice voters and will have an edge on its competitors in terms of organisation.
According to Sawan, Justice & Construction believes that the parliamentary system will be most suited to Libya and that they support de-centralisation but strongly oppose the idea of federalism as the party believes that "it's not something the people want".
The party will be focusing on four key issues during their campaign: security and stability, reconciliation, the economy and the proliferation of arms. The party also promises to pay special attention to human development by improving the education system and the healthcare system.
Justice & Construction believes that justice should be done before reconciliation and that it should be achieved through national dialogue.
The party presents itself as a moderate and progressive religious party. In addition to its 35 female candidates, it has a large number of women members, many of whom are working in key roles, it says.
According to Sawan, the party has a policy to encourage youth to work for their country and believes that Libya cannot be rebuilt without their participation.
Justice & Construction wants to see an institutional democracy in Libya with an independent judiciary and a powerful army. The party promises to develop relations with international organisations to implement human rights covenants and to work on international relations on the basis of equality.

Part of my Chemistry degree was a course in Geology. Ever since I have been fascinated by Geology – mainly rocks and minerals. It's great to go out into the field and collect specimens and 'read' the landscape. The picture shows me looking at a mineral at the Natural History Museum in London where I am a volunteer.

I had a dream last night. So strong in its witness, I needed to "get it down" on paper this morning. Perhaps in doing so, it will get down to a deeper place inside of me so that I might more fully live it outside of me.
The sermon that was never heard.
Allow me to explain. In May of 2016 my father was scheduled to preach at the Garner UMC. There was nothing particularly unusual about this event. Dad was often called upon to "fill the pulpit" on occasions when the pastor wasn't available. As a professor of preaching at Asbury Seminary for over thirty years, and as a pastor of several congregations in the last fifty years, my dad has always been a natural choice for such occasions. His spiritual journey, as well as his giftedness in and eloquence for telling a story, have allowed him notable stages from which to deliver God's message. But no stage was more glorious and important to my father than one holding a wooden pulpit overlooking an audience of Sunday morning seekers. Accordingly, dad rarely refused an opportunity to fill a pulpit.
I had planned to make the two hour trip to Garner to hear my father speak that Sunday. My mother texted me early in the morning to tell me not to come, that dad wasn't feeling well and wouldn't be able to preach. Later that day, when pressed for more details, dad revealed that he was having trouble reading his sermon notes, that his thoughts were jumbled up inside of him. And while he didn't have any manifestations of a physical illness, he knew something was wrong. So did we. Thus began the unraveling of the diagnosable mystery known as a stroke.
The words that were never spoken that Sunday morning. The "text" that (some would say) would be my father's final declaration from the pulpit. And this morning, after tossing and tumbling all night long, after mulling over what my father's final benediction might have been from the pulpit that morning in Garner, I have decided that God is still writing that sermon. That after nineteen months of altered steps and interrupted dialogue, the sermon that was never heard is still preaching its witness.
And therein, folks, lives and breathes the greatest story ever told. When the curtains are drawn, the script is lost, when the words won't come, and the audience has departed, what remains is the sacred echo – the deafening whispers of the sermon that was never heard.
Not every sermon needs a stage.
Not every manuscript needs eloquence.
Not every word needs to be spoken.
Instead, our "sermons" just need to be lived in the shadow of Almighty God. With warmth. With smiles. With laughter. With love … always the love.
Thank you, Daddy, for teaching me how to live with an unwritten, unspoken, and unfinished script.
It's difficult to put into a only a few words what this post means to me. I'm passing it on to my 91 year old dad. Almost every day he works on a sermon. He uses white out to correct the manuscripted notes. He practices aloud, repeating words for just the right emphasis. I made copies of a Christmas letter for him to send for friends in which he says that he spends part of his days writing sermons that will never be given! Makes me sad in several ways, but mostly inspired (as I know YOU are by YOUR preciou father's diligence & commitment).
I am in tears over here, Rebecca. Tell your father that I am listening.
Such a special message!! Praying for you and your family as you travel these new roads of life!!
Love to the Rogers' clan at Christmas and always. May the chapter ahead of you and the one you're writing now be laced with grace from above! Shalom.
Oh Elaine, what a powerful post. Thank you for sharing it. It is true, sometimes God uses just the warmth, and the passion we have in a different way.
Thank you, Iris. I am touched that my family story in some way blesses yours. Merry Christmas, friend.
I will, Matthew! You are so kind to leave a comment and a remembrance. Dad remembers you as well. Peace to you this Christmas.
This is so meaningful to me this morning as well. Thank you for sharing.
Awww, blessings to you, friend, for a peaceful walk to the manger this year.
I love hearing about this Elaine! And I agree…..his sermon is still in the working! What a blessing it always is to hear you talk about your father and mother and the sweet relationship you have with them! That's something that not everyone has in their life. Thank you for sharing this.
We are so blessed to have one another! I am so glad they'll be with us this Christmas. Each day and each memory made is close to my heart. Merry Christmas, friend. You are loved.
Your words always speak to me, dear Elaine. I do appreciate reading this post so beautifully expressed. You are favored to have been raised by a dad like yours (and so am I, by my own father, not a preacher man, but he also lived sermons that only a few "heard" – cause he was a man of few words, but his life was a glorious sermon all by itself.) Much love to you dear friend.

Q: Update react redux state only work on second click I am new in react-redux
I want to get data on submit from Redux, if I get success true then I want to navigate to another screen otherwise an alert will show.
However, I am getting success only after second click
Code :
const {fetchLoginData} = props;
const data = props;

async function onSubmit() {

  fetchLoginData(phoneNo);

   //if i get true from fetchLoginData(phoneNo) then navigate to other screen otherwise an alert will show
   if(data.login)
      props.navigation.navigate('ScreenName')
   else
      alert("User Not Registered")
}

A: I am not too sure on how your  element is laid out but I am assuming that your touchable tag is not large enough. Here is an example of me giving it a height of 300 and a width of 700. You can make it as large as you need.
const GradientBtn = () => {
  return (
    <TouchableOpacity
      onPress={() => onSubmit()}
      style={{height: 300, width: 700}}>
      {/* INSERT BUTTON CODE HERE */}
    </TouchableOpacity>
  );
};

A: This is due to asynchronous operation. The data.login check made immediately after the fetchLoginData() function running on the first click is incorrect for the first case. Therefore, there is no redirection with the first click. When you click again, it redirects because state is already true.
You can fix it like this: If the response is full in the fetchLoginData() function, it will be correct to redirect.
Or you can use this. You can call a redirect function anywhere in the component where the form design is. E.g;
<View>
<Form>
....
</Form>
{data.login && props.navigation.navigate('ScreenName')}
</View>

It is official, Disney has broken ground on AVATAR at Disney's Animal Kingdom.
Camp Minnie Mickey closed just days ago, and already the site is a sealed off construction zone. Earlier this week leaders from Disney and Lightstorm Entertainment took part in a ceremonial ground breaking.
"Disney's Animal Kingdom is already home to some of our guests' favorite attractions," said Tom Staggs, chairman of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts. "With AVATAR, we are adding a spectacular new world and an exciting set of attractions unlike any our guests have experienced. The expansion now under way will make the park a true full-day, must-see experience."
AVATAR is expected to open in 2017.

Q: Default Session timeout value I'm trying to check the default value for session timeout using the below code and get the value 1800.
Question :-

*

*Here I did not create the new session object rather set the attributes value directly. Will the new session object be created automatically?

*I get the value of 1800..Is that in seconds or minutes. I ran this code in tomcat server.

     <% @page language = "java" %>
      <% @page isELIgnored = "false" %>

 Session Update test

         session.setAttribute( "blah", "1234" );
         session.setAttribute( "blah2", "1234" );

         <%
          session.setAttribute("blah", "1234");
          session.setAttribute("blah2", "1234");
         %>

         Update the Session info
      < script >
      alert('Hi')
    var secondsBeforeExpire = $ {
      pageContext.session.maxInactiveInterval
    }
    var timeToDecide = 15; // Give client 15 seconds to choose.
    setInterval(function() {
      alert('MaxInactive Interval ==  ' + $ {
        pageContext.session.maxInactiveInterval
      })
    }, 1000); < /script>

A: For the first question:
The session is created by the server once it is used.
For the second question:
1800 is in seconds equal to 30 minutes, You can config it in the web.xml file.
<session-config>
<session-timeout>30</session-timeout> //minutes
</session-config>

A:
Here I did not create the new session object rather set the attributes
  value directly. Will the new session object be created automatically?

By default for jsp, session is auto created, however sessions are by default created one for one user, to be specific its one browser. Yes if you use multiple browsers to access your web app, you will end up with multiple sessions. That is internally managed by the server. While you can still disabled for jsp by using this line:
<%@page session="false"%>

I get the value of 1800..Is that in seconds or minutes. I ran this
  code in tomcat server.

The value is in seconds.
Now apart from those questions, there are some suggestion related to your js.
var secondsBeforeExpire = ${pageContext.session.maxInactiveInterval}// its 1800
setInterval(function() {
    alert('MaxInactive Interval ==  ' + ${pageContext.session.maxInactiveInterval}) //its always 1800, not the time lapsed
}, 1000);//continuous annoying alert after every 1 second

Using setTimeout for final warning:

setTimeout(function() {
  alert('2 seconds, time"s up!');
}, 2000);
Max time out 2 seconds !

Q: Python : Inserting hyphens after column header in Pandas I have created a dataframe in Python Pandas as below:
import pandas as pd
import os
cols = ('Name','AGE','SAL')
df = pd.read_csv("C:\\Users\\agupt80\\Desktop\\POC\\Python\\test.csv",names = cols)
print(df)

When I am printing dataframe I am getting below output:
    Name  AGE  SAL
0   Amit   32  100
1  gupta   33  200
2  hello   34  300
3   Amit   33  100

Please help is letting me know, how can I insert a Hyphen "-" line after column header like below:
    Name  AGE  SAL
------------------------
0   Amit   32  100
1  gupta   33  200
2  hello   34  300
3   Amit   33  100

A: I don't know of any pandas customization option for printing separators, but you can just print the df to a string, and then insert the line yourself. Something like this:
string_repr = df.to_string().splitlines()
string_repr.insert(1, "-" * len(string_repr[0]))
out = '\n'.join(string_repr)

>>> print(out)
    Name  AGE  SAL
------------------
0   Amit   32  100
1  gupta   33  200
2  hello   34  300
3   Amit   33  100

A: You could do something like this:
import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame([
    ['Amit', 32, 100],
    ['gupta', 33, 200],
    ['hello', 34, 100],
    ['Amit', 33, 100]],
    columns=['Name', 'AGE', 'SAL'])
lines = df.to_string().splitlines()
num_hyphens = max(len(line) for line in lines)
lines.insert(1, '-' * num_hyphens)
result = '\n'.join(lines)
print(result)

Output:
    Name  AGE  SAL
------------------
0   Amit   32  100
1  gupta   33  200
2  hello   34  100
3   Amit   33  100

You can change the calculation of num_hyphens depending on how exactly you want your output to look like. For example you could do:
num_hyphens = 2 * len(lines[0]) - len(lines[0].strip())

To get:
    Name  AGE  SAL
----------------------
0   Amit   32  100
1  gupta   33  200
2  hello   34  100
3   Amit   33  100

Note: If the DataFrame has a named index, to_string will output an additional header line with the name of the index. In that case you could choose to remove that line (replace it with the hyphens) add the hyphens after it (at position 2 instead of 1).

A: you need,
#shift the values one level
df=df.shift(1)
#fill the first row with hyphen
df.iloc[0]='----'

output
Name  AGE   SAL
----  ----  ----
Amit3 2     100
gupta 33    200
hello 34    300

Declaration Of Title To Land: Effect Of Failure To Identify Land
In the Supreme Court of Nigeria

SC.662/2015
Mr. Saibu Adekunjo

Mr. Tajudeen Adekunjo
Mr. Akimu M. Adeoye Appellants
Chief Salami Hussain
Saibu Ilo
Mustapha Ganiyu Ajogbede
Peter Babatunde
Hussain Amore Respondents
(Lead Judgement delivered by Honourable Nwali Sylvester Ngwuta, JSC)
The Appellants commenced an action at the High Court of Ogun State against the Respondents claiming inter alia, a declaration that they are entitled to the Statutory Right of Occupancy in respect of a parcel of land lying and situate at Ilemu/Ifako village via Ado-Odo, Ogun State. The Appellants described the land as being bound at the southern part by Ifio land, northern part by Ifighe farmland, left hand side by Idomiorin farmland and on the right hand side by Odu, Ati-Kekure Idojuna farmland. The Appellants relied on a previous decision from an arbitration relating to the land, Exhibit A.
The Respondents denied the Appellants' claim, in their defence. In addition, the 4th Respondent counter-claimed for declaration of Customary/Statutory Right of Occupancy in respect of the parcel of land, which he described as lying on Alapati Magban Road via Ado-Odo, Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State. He described the land as being bound on the first side by Olayiwola family, second side by Amore family, third side by Ifio family and fourth side by Idobarun family. Also, the 5th Respondent filed a Counter-claim and sought a declaration that his family is entitled to the Customary/Statutory Right of Occupancy over the parcel of land lying at Alapati Magban Road via Ado-Odo/Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State. He described the land to be bound on the first side by Ijigbe family, second side by Idamarien, third side by Ifio family and fourth side by Ore River.
At the conclusion of trial, the court held that the Appellants were entitled to the Statutory Right of Occupancy in respect of the land. The court however, refused the Appellants' prayer for forfeiture of the Respondents' customary tenancy, but granted an order of perpetual injunction against them. Dissatisfied with the decision of the trial court, the Respondents successfully appealed to the Court of Appeal, which informed the Appellants' appeal to the Supreme Court.
Issues for Determination
The following were the issues considered by the Apex Court for determination of the appeal –
1. Whether by the pleading and evidence adduced, the Appellants established the identity of the land in dispute.
2. Whether in view of the applicable laws, the Court of Appeal was in error to have set aside the Order of Injunction made by the trial court in favour of the Appellants.
On the first issue, counsel for the Appellants argued that the Court of Appeal was wrong when it held that the description of the land in dispute contained in the relief was insufficient to identify the land, as the relief was different from the pleading. Counsel stated that the omission of the name of the land in dispute from the body of the Statement of Claim and the incorporation of same in the relief may have been inelegant, but did not detract from the need to do substantial justice. He also contended that the relief is part of the pleading, and the Respondents joined issues with the Appellants on the location of the land in dispute. He relied on the case of ALHAJI SAFIANU AMINU & ORS. v ISIAKA HASSAN & ORS. (2014) 1 SCNJ Page 163 at 181. He submitted further that given the state of pleadings, the Respondents cannot be presumed to be in the dark as to the identity of the land in dispute. Countering the submission of the Appellant, counsel for the Respondents reiterated the decision of the Court of Appeal that the identity of the land in dispute was in issue, and same was not established. He stated that the Court of Appeal considered Exhibit A, which the trial court relied on for the identity of the land, and concluded that same was not helpful, as the 5th Respondent who was the overlord of the other Respondents was not a party to the arbitration. Counsel argued that since the identity of the land in dispute could not be settled and the Appellants failed to file a Survey Plan, the Court of Appeal was right to hold that the identity of the land was not established.
Regarding the second issue, counsel for the Appellants argued that, in view of the Declaration of Title granted to the Appellants, the order of injunction as a consequential Order was rightly granted. He cited the case of OKOYA v SANTILI (1990) ALL NLR 250 at 280-281 and other cases. Further, counsel submitted that the order of perpetual injunction was in tandem with the legal principles in cases where title has been granted, and where there is evidence that the Respondents have been putting tenants on the land and selling same. Responding, counsel for the Respondents posited that the order of injunction granted by the trial court was unjust, in that the court had held that grantees of land under Customary Law enjoy their interest in the land in perpetuity subject to good behaviour, and the interest has now in practice been regarded as practically indefeasible. He contended further that the order of injunction granted by the trial court, was in conflict with the finding that grantees under customary tenor enjoy the interest in perpetuity. He cited the case of JOSIAH AGHEHEN v MAKUKA WAGHOREGHOR (1974) 1 SC, and urged the Court to endorse the decision of the Court of Appeal.
Court's Judgement and Rationale
Deciding the first issue, the Supreme Court referred to a book by Fidelis Nwadialo titled "Civil Procedure in Nigeria", second edition p. 147, where the learned author reckoned with a pattern which evolved by practice on the form a Statement of Claim should take. A Statement of Claim was described as composing of three parts, namely – (i) The introductory averments; (ii) The body of the statement; and (iii) The prayer for relief. The Supreme Court held that, without the relief portion in a pleading, the pleading properly so called is incomplete, and to say a claim for title to land is defeated merely because the location of the land is inserted only in the relief section of the Statement of Claim, amounts to stretching the evolved patterns of pleading to absurdity.
However, the court held that the easiest way to identify the land in dispute is by filing a survey plan, and since no survey plan was filed, the identity of the land will depend on pleadings and evidence. Although, the Appellants led evidence in proof of their averments in the Statement of Claim, the said averments fall short of what is required to prove the identity of land. The directions – "Southern part, Northern part, left hand side and right hand side stated in the Statement of Claim, cannot be determined without a fixed point from which the direction can be ascertained, and the right or left side depends on the cardinal point the observer is facing.
The court held that the Claimants have a duty to identify the existing boundaries of the land, and where they fail to do so, the court has no power to demarcate one for them. The court cited on AWERE v LASOJU (1975) NWLR 29 at 82 and held that natural marks such as road, river, stream or a tree can constitute good boundary marks, but none was pleaded in this case. Further, the court found that Exhibit A, the previous decision relating to an arbitration in respect of the land, cannot be relied on by the Appellants, as same does not bind the 5th Respondent, who was not a party to the said arbitration. The Supreme Court concluded that the Appellants failed to establish the identity and boundaries of the land to which they claim a declaration of title, and the evidence adduced before the trial court did not ground a declaration of title in their favour.
With respect to the second issue, the Supreme Court held that since the Appellants' claim for declaration of title failed because the Appellants were unable to establish the identity and/or boundaries of the land, there was no defined area of land to which an order of perpetual injunction could be tied. Also, the court found that the Appellants had not established a right, legal or equitable, for which protection could be granted.
Appeal Dismissed.

A portrait of Saint Francis by Philip Fruytiers
Francis of Assisi (born Giovanni di Pietro di Bernardone; Italian: Francesco d'Assisi; Latin: Franciscus Assisiensis; 1181 or 1182 – 3 October 1226), venerated as Saint Francis of Assisi, also known in his ministry as Francesco, was an Italian Catholic friar, deacon, philosopher, mystic, and preacher. He founded the men's Order of Friars Minor, the women's Order of Saint Clare, the Third Order of Saint Francis and the Custody of the Holy Land. Francis is one of the most venerated religious figures in Christianity.
Pope Gregory IX canonized Francis on 16 July 1228. Along with Saint Catherine of Siena, he was designated patron saint of Italy. He later became associated with patronage of animals and the natural environment, and it became customary for churches to hold ceremonies blessing animals on or near his feast day of 4 October. In 1219, he went to Egypt in an attempt to convert the Sultan to put an end to the conflict of the Crusades. By this point, the Franciscan Order had grown to such an extent that its primitive organizational structure was no longer sufficient. He returned to Italy to organize the Order.
Once his community was authorized by the Pope, he withdrew increasingly from external affairs. Francis is also known for his love of the Eucharist. In 1223, Francis arranged for the first Christmas live nativity scene. According to Christian tradition, in 1224 he received the stigmata during the apparition of Seraphic angels in a religious ecstasy, which would make him the second person in Christian tradition after St. Paul (Galatians 6:17) to bear the wounds of Christ's Passion. He died during the evening hours of 3 October 1226, while listening to a reading he had requested of Psalm 142 (141). – Wikipedia

Q: Laravel join two tables for ruled out records In Laravel, how can I reject a record in a query based on a value with one of the table with which this table has relations?
For example, I have the Products table and the Categories table. The Categories table has a one-to-many relationship, one category can have many products. The categories table are is_visible is_deleted. How to make inquiries on the Products table so that it rejects products that belong to the category that has and set fields is_visible = false or is_deleted = true ?
I tried something like this:
    $products = ProductTable::join('product_category_tables', 'product_category_tables.id', '=', 'product_tables.id')
        ->where('product_category_tables.is_visible', '=', true)
        ->where('product_category_tables.is_deleted', '=', false)
        ->where('product_tables.is_visible', '=', true)
        ->where('product_tables.is_deleted', '=', false)
        ->paginate(50);

But from this query I have only one record. I can't make this query on Category table becouse I want get only 25/50/100 products for paginate.

A: If you are using Laravel Modal(Eloquent) and have defined the one to many relationship properly in both Product and Category Model. then you can achieve this by the following query:
$products = Product::where("is_visible", true)
                ->where("is_deleted", false)
                ->whereHas('category', function($categories){
                   $categories->where("is_visible", true)
                               ->where("is_deleted", false);
                })
                ->get();

In Product model you should have defined the relationship as bellow:
public function category()
{
    //From your mentioned query I am seeing that
    //product table's id is actually categories table's id(which should not be like this though),
    //so the relationship is
    return $this->belongsTo(Category::class, 'id');
}

Celiac Disease: What You Need To Know
By Lisa Lam-Phaure
More than 3 million Americans have celiac disease, but many more are likely undiagnosed. Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects the small intestine. People with celiac disease cannot tolerate gluten. When they eat foods or use products that contain gluten, their immune system reacts by damaging the villi—the tiny, finger-like projections that line the small intestine. Damaged villi make it difficult for the body to absorb nutrients from food. Celiac disease is also known as celiac sprue, nontropical sprue, and gluten-sensitive enteropathy. There is no cure for celiac disease, but the good news is that it can be managed by following a gluten-free diet.
Celiac Disease's Symptoms
There are many symptoms of celiac disease, which can vary in severity. They may include:
Abdominal bloating
Weight loss or gain
Bone or joint pain
Depression or anxiety
Missed menstrual periods in women
Mouth sores on the tongue or cheeks
Skin rash (dermatitis herpetiformis)
Intestinal blockage.
They may occur immediately after eating or may be delayed for hours or even days. Some people have mild symptoms, while others have very severe ones. People with celiac disease often have other autoimmune disorders such as type 1 diabetes or thyroid disease. Celiac disease is a genetic disorder—meaning it runs in families—but only about 1 percent of people who have first-degree relatives with the condition develop it themselves. Most people with celiac disease are diagnosed as adults, but children can also develop the disorder.
How is celiac disease diagnosed?
Celiac disease can be challenging to diagnose because symptoms can vary from person to person and may be similar to other digestive disorders. You must see a doctor or other healthcare provider for a diagnosis if you think you may have celiac disease. They will likely ask about your medical history and symptoms. They may order a blood test to look for specific antibodies. A small intestine biopsy may also be done to confirm the diagnosis.
Your doctor may order a blood test that looks for particular antibodies called tTG-IgA and EMA-IgA. These antibodies are produced in response to gluten and are often found in people with celiac disease. A genetic test for celiac disease can help determine if you are at risk for developing the condition. The test looks for a specific gene called HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8. If you have this gene, you are more likely to develop celiac disease.
Other tests that may diagnose celiac disease include endoscopy and capsule endoscopy. Endoscopy is a procedure in which a thin, flexible tube with a light and camera at the end is inserted through the mouth and down into the stomach and small intestine. This can help doctors see if there is damage to the small intestine. Capsule endoscopy is a newer test in which a small, battery-powered camera is swallowed and takes pictures of the small intestine as it moves through. This can help doctors see if there is damage to the small intestine that may not be visible on an endoscopy.
What is a gluten-free diet?
A gluten-free diet is the only treatment for celiac disease. This means avoiding all foods containing gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. For some people with celiac disease, even trace amounts of gluten can trigger symptoms. Following a gluten-free diet can be challenging, but many resources and products are available to help.
The first step is to learn which foods contain gluten and how to read food labels.
Looking for gluten on food labels can be tricky, but there are a few things you can look for. The most common ingredients that contain gluten are wheat, barley, and rye. However, gluten can also be hidden in other ingredients, such as malt, dextrin, and hydrolyzed vegetable protein. It's important to read food labels carefully to ensure that all ingredients are gluten-free. Many companies now have gluten-free products or labels indicating gluten-free products.
Adhering to a gluten-free diet can be difficult. Still, it's important to remember that it's the only treatment for celiac disease. A gluten-free diet will help heal your gut and prevent further damage. It may also help to relieve symptoms and improve your overall health.
How to cope when eating out or traveling
Eating out and traveling can be challenging when you have celiac disease, but there are some things you can do to make it easier. When traveling, it's important to pack plenty of gluten-free snacks and meals. This will help ensure that you have something to eat when you're on the go. Many gluten-free options are available, such as snack bars, chips, and cookies. You can also pack homemade gluten-free meals, such as sandwiches, salads, and soups. It's a good idea to pack various snacks and meals so that you have something for every occasion.
If you're eating out, ask about the restaurant's gluten-free options. Many restaurants now have gluten-free menus or can accommodate special requests. When in doubt, it's best to err on the side of caution and avoid ordering anything that may contain gluten.
Following a gluten-free diet can be challenging, but it's crucial if you have celiac disease. With some planning and preparation, you can ensure plenty of safe and delicious food options.
Resources for people with celiac disease
If you have been diagnosed with celiac disease, many resources are available to help you navigate your new gluten-free diet. The Celiac Disease Foundation offers a variety of educational materials, including a starter kit, cookbook, and food guide.
The Gluten Intolerance Group also provides resources and support for people with celiac disease.
And the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness offers a variety of programs and services to help people with celiac disease live healthy, gluten-free lives.
You must see a doctor or other healthcare provider for a diagnosis if you think you may have celiac disease.

Save him. Try to stop me. I gave up smoking six months ago. I not only forgot to close the window, I also didn't sweep. Where did you squeeze them? I think Guillermo just wants to be alone. Her voice was quivering with anger. Please take charge of this key. I didn't like that game until I started to win. Carol couldn't choke back her tears.
Do you want to know who he is? We need not only adequate water but clean water. To talk with a lot of people is good for health. Today's play really moved me. Even smart people sometimes do stupid things. She dreamt about wild jaguars. I admire his dedication. Maybe we should return to Boston. Darrell grows rice. I wouldn't miss this for anything.
My room looks like a mess. These lilies smell lovely. The New Year came in with a light fall of snow. According to mythology, Prometheus stole the sacred fire from the gods. Everyone's been really nice. It was no big deal. The noonday sun beat down with dazzling brightness on the tennis court. Your hair wants cutting. Do you feel sorry for Ramesh? Santa says that she can see ghosts.
I'm staying over at my friend's place. I know you'll make me proud. This is a great theory. Kari is a good teammate. He can do it better than I can. Rome is an Italian town. My father, in his infinite wisdom, has forgotten to bring the tarp again. Pete didn't have to stay home to help us. We could've done it by ourselves. I was in the neighborhood and thought I'd drop in for a visit. I can't raise our child by myself.
You lacked confidence in yourself. Thierry and Nancy broke up last month. She gets about with the help of a walker. You see? It wasn't all that hard. The whole town will know! The computer system shuts down automatically at 8pm. It looks very good. You can't bury your head in the sand. Stop me if you've heard this one. Have you called Tareq yet?
Saturn devoured his children. We need you to be strong. It was a strange story. I connect to the Internet almost every day. Jeffie folded the newspaper and put it under his arm. I broke a glass - try not to step on the shards before I clean them up. Do you intend to answer all my questions truthfully? Mr Sano speaks French with great fluency. I'll miss you, too. In one month there are four weeks.
The meeting hasn't started yet. May I see your birth certificate? She dusted off an old lamp. This is hardly the place for dancing. The severe housing shortage is partly to blame for the inflated rents. I think Bret is looking for his keys. William Penn was not born a Quaker. Sanjib hasn't been able to get in touch with Ramsey yet. I am swimming in the river. I get off of work at 5:30.
Who will take the place of his mother? I couldn't control my anger. My father isn't at home. She's a rather rare individual. How many students are there in total? If you aren't there by 10:00, we'll leave without you. No need to translate this sentence. I understand it. Denis gave Laurence three thousand dollars. He fell asleep during class. You're the only one I can trust to do the right thing.
For me, I like this better. This is the first time I've ever taken my children to the countryside. That's very personal. I wish I could remember his name. It wasn't something anybody expected. Why do you need to go? We haven't met for ages. It is certain that Emmet contrived his 'dyad' style to facilitate the process of architectural design. She caught it for coming late. Who did Confucius teach?
Have you decided on a name for the cat? The good always overcome the evil. . . in stories. Can't you understand the pain of your parents? So that's Tatoeba. Furthermore, she actually reacts to the trolls! Anyone who has spent any time online knows that this is like trying to put out a fire with gasoline. She explained to him why she didn't like his parents. We met each other again completely by accident. Are you having any difficulty sleeping? Jem and Rupert are still playing ping pong. You better brush up your English if you go to America.

Third crypto boss dies after Russian billionaire's helicopter crashes
A Russian billionaire has become the third top cryptocurrency trader to die suddenly in recent weeks.
Vyacheslav Taran, 53, the co-founder of trading and investing platform Libertex, died after his helicopter mysteriously crashed in a resort town near Monaco.
The vehicle plummeted on November 25 afternoon, killing Mr Taran, who had lived in Monaco for a decade, as well as a veteran pilot.
Libertex said in a statement: 'It is with great sadness that Libertex Group confirms the death of its co-founder and Chairman of Board of Directors, Vyacheslav Taran, after a helicopter crash that took place en route to Monaco on Friday, 25 November 2022.
'The Board of Directors of Libertex Group and company employees extend their most heartfelt condolences and sympathy to the Taran family.'
He is the latest in a growing list of powerful people in Vladimir Putin's Russia to abruptly die.

Can the World Kick its Car Addiction?
Unless we want to drown in congestion and pollution, there is no other choice. This will require enormous amounts of investment.
Road transport's future is a tale of two cities. One is typified by Los Angeles, where residents spend four full days a year stuck in traffic and inhaling its fumes. While 80 percent of all journeys there are by car, consider the contrary case of Copenhagen. There, almost 60 percent of all trips don't even involve a motor; they are on bike or foot. In Denmark's capitol, compared to LA, roads are more easily travelled, air is cleaner and life is generally sweeter.
Ok, maybe that last point is exaggerated, but the truth is that these cities exemplify a choice: whether or not the car should be our main mode of transport. Most challenged by this question are China and India. With one-third of the earth's people and nearly one-third of global new-car sales, these developing giants must make major changes to avoid becoming smothered and paralysed by automobiles. In developed countries the danger is less acute but still real; it also is where signs of hope and change can sometimes be seen.
Probably the biggest reason for change is not the carrot of clean Copenhagen, but the stick of snarling traffic in Shanghai, Mumbai and other developing megacities. Beijing bears the dubious honour of hosting the world's largest traffic jam – a 2010 snafu that snaked 100-km to its northwest. As cars were stuck literally for days, hundreds of police were called out to cool the heads of overheated motorists, while even more street vendors swarmed in to sell them overpriced food and drink. Although normal tie-ups don't trigger such extraordinary measures, they still are expensive. Road overload – measured as wasted resources and time plus missed opportunities – costs the UK, for instance, some 20 billion GBP every year. In London alone the tab is 2 billion GBP, says a 2014 Credit Suisse report entitled 'Themes in Energy Efficiency'. Adding insult to the injury of gridlock comes pestilential air quality. In China, smoky skies simply cannot be overlooked, and even in areas where it is less obvious, pollution threatens. In 1,000 of earth's 1,500 largest cities, atmospheric concentrations of soot exceed the limits prescribed by the World Health Organisation (WHO). This is unpleasant to breathe, and deadly, say atmospheric scientists, who estimate that smoky skies prematurely kill 100,000s to millions every year.
There is a better way. Reducing reliance on cars, declare Credit Suisse analysts Eugene Klerk, Richard Kersley and Ashlee Ramanathan, is the key to a liveable future. And this might be easier than many of us think. One of the lowest-hanging fruits to be picked is journeys of 8 km or less, which account for about two-thirds of all travel. People in not just Copenhagen, but Amsterdam, Antwerp and Bremen already prove that the bulk of these movements can be made using public transport, bikes or legs. Any of those options carry higher numbers of travellers, occupy less space and burn less energy than cars.
For urbanites, they also cost less. Credit Suisse's Klerk and colleagues proved this in a recent analysis of commuting charges in Beijing, London, New York and Tokyo. In each location, the expense of private transport is substantially greater than public – from 3 x as much in London to 8 x as much in Beijing, with New York and Tokyo about half way in-between. This is no small incentive. Even in the car-happy USA, the world leader with 8 autos for every 10 people, transport costs in urban areas eat up 20-30 percent of an average household's income.
Another way to cut congestion is to tap technology. Way back at the 1989 edition of the world's largest trade show, the Hanover Fair, Volkswagen boasted of its ability to steer cars by remote control, to bundle them into space- and fuel-saving convoys that could hurtle down motorways in formation at top speeds, as well as autopilot their way down ordinary byways. Now, a quarter-century later, such systems seem to be on the brink of going commercial, thanks to VW subsidiary Audi, other automakers as well as the ubiquitous Google. The latter notes that autopiloting not only cuts traffic, it also boosts safety. With most of the world's 1.2 million annual road deaths caused by human error, it's almost cliché to say that humans shouldn't worry about driverless cars – but the other way around. Meanwhile, parking is getting a makeover, too. No wonder, given that finding a spot to stow ones wheels causes about one-third of all local congestion. New apps such as ParkMe, BestParking and JustPark can cut hunting time – which in New York and London average 15-20 minutes – down by half.
Improvements such as these will ease the car crunch, but not enough to wean us truly off of them. To clear the streets and the air, governments will have to take the lead. The most important measures, say Klerk and colleagues, are regulations for energy efficiency and emissions controls, for which governments will only continue to tighten the screws. Less effective, they say, will be alternative fuels. Contrary to the view popular only five years ago, electric cars are no longer expected to become prominent by 2020, if ever. Powering engines with plant-based ethanol, biodiesel or unconventional fossil fuels might deliver lower emissions, but only at the margins. The other regulatory push will be to force people out of their cars and onto the bus, train, tram or bicycle. It's a tall order, but winds of change are whispering. In both the USA and the UK, significantly fewer people aged 16-30 have driving licenses than those of the same age 25 years ago. Maybe, just maybe, they are less car-happy than their predecessors.
Despite many uncertainties, one thing is clear: transport will need a bundle of funding. Even with all the above measures, Credit Suisse still projects the global fleet to double by 2035. Then there is infrastructure: creating a 'developed world' road network in China, for instance, will quadruple the size of its current one to 16-17 million km. All this calls for spending well into the tens of trillions USD. (The USA domestic economy now turns over 17 trillion USD.) A substantial amount of that will flow into non-profit ventures, but nowhere near all. Klerk and colleagues are convinced that out of all the change will come a tale of two types of companies: winners and losers.

Windows Phone 7 Ad Impressions Up 92%; iOS And Android Neck In Neck For App Revenue
Mobile ad network Millennial Media has released its monthly monthly mobile report for May, giving us a view into how each OS and manufacturer is performing on the mobile ad network. For the sixth consecutive month, Android maintained its position as the leading Smartphone OS on the network with a 53 percent impression share.
iOS followed with 27 percent of impression share, followed by RIM with 17 percent of ad impressions on the network (up 6 percent from last month). Millennial says that RIM's rise was due to an increase in BlackBerry Curve impressions on the network. Windows Phone 7 actually showed the highest growth in impressions on Millennial's network, up 92 percent. But Windows Phone 7 still has a 1 percent share compared to their mobile operating systems.
Specific by device, impressions on the iPad grew 29 percent month-over-month. In fact, in the last year, connected devices as a category are up 190 percent in terms impressions. And 70 percent of impressions on connected devices were from MP3 players or mobile gaming devices. Tablets made up 27 percent of connected devices by impressions.
When breaking down all the revenue driven by apps on Millennial's network, iOS apps and Android apps were very close, with 45 percent coming from iOS and 43 percent from Android. It looks like Android is closing in on iOS in terms of revenue. In April, iOS took 50 percent of app revenues, with Android trailing behind with 39 percent of app revenues.
Feature phones actually experienced a 6 percent month-over-month increase, and made up 17 percent of the device OS mix (as opposed to 67 percent for smartphones and 16 percent for connected devices).
For the 20th straight month, the iPhone maintained its position as the top individual phone on Millennial's network by impression share. Apple was also the leading manufacturer on the network for May with a 30 percent share.
HTC moved to the number four position and represented almost 11 percent
of the Top 15 Manufacturers impression share in May, with six devices on the Top 20 Mobile Phones ranking.
Data aside, we're all waiting to see what Millennial's next step is as the largest remaining independent mobile ad company. Last year, the company raised $27.5 million in new funding, and is reportedly considering an IPO in the near future. The company recently acquired mobile data company Condaptive.


Senator Elizabeth Warren spoke to supporters Saturday during an event in Dover, N.H. New Hampshire officials fret that the first-in-the-nation primary could be losing its influence.
For 100 years, New Hampshire's primary has fashioned itself as a gauntlet for wannabe leaders of the free world, putting candidates through their paces in intimate coffee shops, house parties, and town hall meetings intended to flesh out who has the mettle to lead the party and, perhaps, the nation.
But instead of celebrating this milestone — scheduled to take place one year from Monday — the state's political pooh-bahs are expressing unprecedented anxiety. While the state is on track to host the first presidential primary in 2020, it might be less relevant than ever.
The reason for the panic? A perfect storm of factors, including the primary calendar, an increasingly nationalized campaign, and the expected left-wing clash between two of the party's leading candidates who hail from neighboring states.
Sure, New Hampshire's dominance has been challenged before by an ever-shifting primary calendar, or another state threatening to hold a similar contest earlier in the cycle. But this time it's not what comes before New Hampshire but what comes after it that has worried local insiders.
Just three weeks after the New Hampshire primary, nine delegate-rich states — including California, Texas, and Massachusetts — will have primaries on March 3. Top presidential candidates are expected to invest millions in television and campaigns in these states, which means New Hampshire could basically amount to an opening act before the big show.
What's more, new laws that allow for early voting mean someone in Concord, Calif., will be able to vote a week before someone in Concord, N.H.
(One major caveat: New Hampshire Secretary of State Bill Gardner has not set the date for the New Hampshire primary, and under state law, he can put it on the calendar as early as necessary to preserve its front-runner status).
The shifts in the primary calendar will force candidates to evaluate how much and often they want to play in New Hampshire, said Nick Baldick, who ran the state primary campaigns for Bill Clinton and Al Gore and served as national campaign manager for John Edwards in 2004.
"The calendar changes are big factor this year as campaigns map out their strategies," Baldick said.
What's more, Democratic candidates — who could number as many as 20 in the field — will be relying more on low-dollar re curring donations from supporters. This means candidates will put a premium on getting national media coverage to appeal to the largest possible swath of donors.
"The automatic low-dollar donations will mean that there will be candidates who can stay in the race after doing badly in New Hampshire, where a decade ago they would have to drop out because they had no new money coming in," said Robin Kolodny, a political science professor at Temple University in Philadelphia.
Also on the horizon is the prospect of a regional grudge match between US Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and US Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont.
For both pols, it's a win-or-die situation: Seven out of eight Massachusetts candidates have won the next-door presidential primary, and Sanders — who has yet to announce his intentions for 2020 — would find it nearly impossible to recover politically after losing a primary that he won four years prior by more than 22 points.
Indeed, a large field of lesser-known candidates may, in theory, believe that New Hampshire is a great equalizer because its small size and intimate politics give less-financed candidates a chance. But if Warren and Sanders each have unprecedented funds to spend, and state polls show them consistently in first or second place, it could overshadow whichever candidate successfully pulled into third or fourth place in a large field.
None of this, however, has yet stopped the droves of candidates from coming to the state to campaign.
On Monday, former representative John Delaney will open his New Hampshire campaign office — followed by visits in the same week from at least five other potential presidential hopefuls: Senator Kamala Harris of California, Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey, South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg, former Colorado governor John Hickenlooper, and former Massachusetts governor Bill Weld.
Last week, Senator Sherrod Brown, Warren, and entrepreneur Andrew Yang all criss-crossed the state.
But few candidates were laying groundwork for a campaign last year — the kind of preparation work typically done by presidential hopefuls. Only Sanders made regular visits to the state, and Warren didn't spend a dime on advertising for her reelection campaign on Boston television channels that reach two-thirds of New Hampshire — something John Kerry spent millions doing before he ran for president in 2004.
Finally, Joe Biden, the front-runner in all national polls for the Democratic nomination, hasn't been to the state in two years. Nor has former Texas representative Beto O'Rourke, who headed to New York last week to be interviewed by Oprah Winfrey.
Despite all this, US Senator Jeanne Shaheen, who started in politics by working in the 1976 presidential primary for Jimmy Carter, sounded a more confident note about the state's political dominance.
"It's critical to our electoral process and I don't see that changing," she said.

We have been trained to care for clients God's Way at the Center for Biblical Counseling. God's way produces a right attitude toward the disease and gives those diagnosed a sense of hope for survival.
Imagine feeling afraid, rejected, alone, powerless, ashamed and hopeless. Envision, then, if someone comes to you and says words that no one else has said, does things that no one else has done according to God's Plan which leaves you with courage, strength, dignity and hope for the future.
I use CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy). It was developed by Aaron Beck in the 1960s. My counseling theory focuses on how people's thinking can change feelings and behaviors. My goal is to reverse negative emotional behaviors by correcting their "stinking thinking".
Stress and Worry are also caused by unexpected events and/or the unexpected effects of chemo and radiation. Our clients are taught life skills to assist with the transitions needed to live with chronic disease as they embrace Health, Nutrition and a changed lifestyle to obtain and maintain Wellness.
Welcome to the site of PCO Counseling. My name is Charlaine Price the owner. I am a licensed professional counselor and I have been practicing for 26 years. I have a passion to care for others. I like counseling, teaching, public speaking and volunteering to help the homeless and victims suffering from chronic illness. I have been surviving cancer since July 2011. I share empathy not sympathy with my clients. I cared for my mother when she could no longer work. I care for my clients as I assist them through their trails of life.
I taught business marketing, adult education classes and provided career awareness and group counseling for adolescents. I worked with the STARS Triple S (Students Staying Straight) drug program before I retired as Educator- Administrator from the Hamilton County Department of Education after 33 years of service. I received many honors during my tenure there: Teacher of the Year at Riverside High 1987, Counselorof the Year at Tyner High 1997, Delta of the Year in 1990, and Vocational Supervisor for the State of TN in 2000.
I have served as President of the Lookout Counseling Association, Tennessee Counseling Association and Chattanooga Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
I served as Active Parenting Counselor, Marriage Counselor and a Life Skills Coach for Men arrested for Spousal Abuse. I have been recruited as public speaker for many civic and educational organizations. I am an active member of the American Association of Christian Counselors. I recently completed the Cancer Care Leadership Training Program, "Our Journey of Hope" a biblically-based, non-denominational, training program developed by Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) to help churches support and minister to those who have received a cancer diagnosis. This training prepared me to teach others how to minister to those impacted by cancer.
Have you ever tried to define health? Disease is not the result of a single violation of the law of health, but of habitual violations of the laws of health which prepares the way for disease.
Good nutrition may be just as important for our mental health and that a number of conditions, including depression, may be influenced by dietary factors.
If you keep on living the way that you live now, you will always live that way. A change of lifestyle can greatly increase health and life span. We must get back to God's Plan for humanity.
"We All Know Someone with Cancer"
He Restored My Soul: In the Valley of the Shadow of Cancer We are excited about PCO's adoption of Cancer Care. Charlaine is an awesome counselor and has written an empowering book entitled, He Restored My Soul in the Valley of the Shadow of Cancer. Charlaine's spiritual references and healing scriptures yield hope and direction for people facing chronic health illnesses. She is truly anointed to share her cancer journey and how the Holy Spirit led her through the Valley of Cancer.

A close friend of Mac Miller's has come forward in the wake of the 26-year-old's unexpected death to reveal ex-girlfriend Ariana Grandewas one of the biggest proponents of Miller's sobriety.
Hours after Mac Miller was found dead on Sept. 7, angry fans began harassing Grande on Instagram, which prompted her to disable comments on her account. The day after Miller passed, Grande posted a photo of Miller on Instagram as a tribute.

Truck rocks UA
"Many University of Akron students have seen it. Even more have heard it. The month-old mystique surrounding the elusive Rock the Roo truck has blazed across campus. With more wattage in the trunk than any Caprice on South Arlington Street and rims that would make Pimp my Ride host Xzibit cry, the truck has certainly attracted attention."
Many University of Akron students have seen it.
Even more have heard it.
The month-old mystique surrounding the elusive Rock the Roo truck has blazed across campus.
With more wattage in the trunk than any Caprice on South Arlington Street and rims that would make Pimp my Ride host Xzibit cry, the truck has certainly attracted attention.
That was exactly the plan, says E.J. Thomas Hall Executive Director Dan Dahl.
People were asking us to bring around more music and do more things on campus, he said.
Some of the staff even installed speakers in the trunks of their own cars to promote various shows around Akron.
Eventually, the E.J. Thomas staff decided to make a statement and attract more students to the nearby events.
We thought it would be fun to promote to students on campus, Dahl said.
Before the transformation, the chosen truck hardly looked special. Dahl and his staff took the 2005 Ford F150 with 56,000 miles to Custom Trim on Market Street.
After spending some $37,000 from E.J. Thomas Hall's private fund, on paint, rims, a 5,000-watt audio system and gratuitous stage speakers for the bed, Dahl seemed pleased with his creation.
Students have reacted to it great, he said. They stop and have their picture taken. I think more people know what we're doing at various events.
Freshman Kyle Flege spoke for many students when he admitted that he is really surprised at how good it looks. I like the horn too.
E.J. Thomas Hall's new truck is only part of the refreshingly aggressive campaign to attract more students to special events.
Booking top-tier acts such as Seether and NBC's Last Comic Standing Tour along with local favorites like the Black Keys has made Akron's only major performance hall one of the hottest spots for nearby Akron students in 2008.
E.J.'s partnership with the University and the Resident Hall Program Board also makes several free-for-students shows at the venue possible.
In the next week, Dahl said the truck will be out with new vigor to promote the Rock the Roo Lunchtime Concert Series, which offers free music and food on the Hall's Plaza on Wednesdays at 11:30 p.m.
