Victory & Agony of Jeopardy
by David Greisman
It still stings how I lost on Jeopardy! The only thing that helps is to remind that I also won on Jeopardy! This victory and agony were private for more than seven weeks. Nobody except for two friends in the audience on Oct. 6 in Culver City, Calif. — not even my family — could know I was a champion until Thanksgiving. They then had to wait until Black Friday to learn how I had promptly been knocked off my throne in heartbreaking fashion.
In the grand scheme, I was thrilled just to have the opportunity.
The first step to making it on the show is passing the online test. I was humbled by it way back in 2010 and didn't have the courage to try again until January 2014. Nearly 200,000 people signed up and 100,000 took it. I did just well enough to be one of about 3,000 invited to auditions held around the country. Mine was in late May in Washington, D.C. We took another test, then were called up in groups of three to play a mini-game, allowing the contestant coordinators to evaluate our stage presence.
I did decently on the second test, but my mini-game had categories I knew little to nothing about. I had fun but figured I'd sit uncalled-on within the contestant pool for the next 18 months. Only 400 of us nationwide would make it on. Several future champions had auditioned multiple times before taking the trip to Trebekistan.
You can imagine my surprise — and celebration — when my phone rang Aug. 27, "Culver City" on the caller ID and a voice on the line saying she worked for Jeopardy!
I'd soon be adding my name to a list of contestants with ties to Carroll County.
This list may not be complete, but my research pulled up several folks who enjoyed varying degrees of success on the show:
Barbara Walker of Westminster won four games in 1996 and made it to the Tournament of Champions
Bill Barnett, then of Westminster, was a one-day champion in 1998.
Bryn Upton, a history professor I knew at McDaniel College, was in the lead with a handful of questions left in 2005 before finishing in second place.
Chris Zane of Westminster won three games in 2008.
Melisa Paye-Mose of Woodbine took third place in 2009.
And at the same set of auditions as me was Dr. Howard Jacobs, a physician from Pikesville with an office in Westminster.
I attempted to get in touch with them for this article but only one responded to recount his experience.
Jacobs, 59, tried out four decades before, back when Jeopardy! was in its original incarnation hosted by Art Fleming. But when his son Danny made it on for an episode that aired in January 2014, Howard gave it another shot and got the call, filming in July for an episode that aired this past September.
Jacobs stayed close enough that the game came down to nailing the "Final Jeopardy" question. He got 12 questions right and four wrong during the first two rounds for a total of $6,200. His fellow contestants, Erica and Bill, had $8,400 and $12,000, respectively. "Final Jeopardy" came up. Jacobs knew it immediately. He had bet $6,000 and vaulted into first place at $12,200. Erica got it wrong and dropped down. But Bill, the defending champion, also was correct and retook the lead. Bill ultimately became a three-time winner.
Jacobs, like his son, finished in second. Afterward he and his wife enjoyed some time in California, a trip that with his $2,000 prize essentially amounted to a free vacation and an experience that few get to have.
"It was almost as if there had been something in my life that was left unfulfilled," Jacobs said. "It felt good to finish that part of my life's adventure."
That was as good as I thought I would do.
Of course, I was still going to play to win. I had less than six weeks to prepare.
I played Trivial Pursuit with friends. I downloaded a quiz app on my phone. I subjected myself to pop music to catch up on trends. I limited my radio listening to NPR. And a friend introduced me to Evelyn R., a Torontonian trivia whiz who is also in the Jeopardy! contestant pool. Without ever meeting, Evelyn tutored me nearly every day over the telephone. We went through topics that come up often. We played mock games on an interactive website with clues from past episodes. We discussed betting strategy. And I watched recorded episodes, standing up and clicking a pen as if it were my signaling device.
"Luck is still involved with the categories you get, the other contestants you face and getting in on the buzzer," Evelyn said. "But based on the skill portion, I thought you had a really good chance. You were very well-prepared."
I was as nervous as could be. I felt I knew less than the average contestant. The categories and signaling device would be crucial.
I got some practice before the five-episode taping began, unable to buzz in at first but soon going on a nice run. I just had to hope the momentum would hold for whenever my game would come. I didn't know when that would be.
Three games passed, our group of contestants thinning. I counted my blessings that "Opera" and "Sculptors" were categories in those games and likely wouldn't be in mine. We came back from lunch. My name was called. Each previous episode had crowned a new champion. I hoped to continue that trend.
One practice round later, the lights went on, the music played, my name was announced and Alex Trebek walked on stage.
Cabinet departments aside, five of the first six categories had nothing to do with what I studied. It was up to intuition and the random facts I'd accumulated over the years.
The defending champion, Aggie, got the first question. I followed with five of the next six, clicking just right on the buzzer. Michelle battled back and was in the lead at the first commercial break. I soon had another run of five answers before getting one wrong. As the opening round ended, I was somehow in the lead, answering 13 correctly for $6,000. Michelle had eight right and $4,400. Aggie had five right and $3,400. They had beaten me on the buzzer for seven answers I knew. Luck and skill were going my way.
That was about to change.
I still held the lead 10 questions into the second round, only to get two wrong in a row and drop into last place. Aggie and Michelle did well. Though I finished with the most correct answers overall, I needed a miracle in "Final Jeopardy." I had $7,600. Michelle had $11,000. Aggie had $12,600.
The category? "Bodies of Water." We made our bets. I did some strategic math and wagered $4,000.
The clue: "First encountered in 1648 by a man born in Russia, it was eventually named after a man born in Denmark."
I'd studied this subject. The logical answer was one we'd seen in mock games time and again. "What is the Bering Strait?" I wrote, thinking of the area between Russia and Alaska.
Trebek came to me first. I was right, and you could see the relief on my face. I moved into second place with $11,600. Michelle wrote: "What is the Caspian Sea?" and lost $4,000. I was guaranteed second place and waiting to see if my Hail Mary pass would be completed. Aggie didn't have a complete answer. "What is the river?" she wrote. Her wager was $9,401, her final total $3,401.
"David Greisman," Trebek said as I smiled, shocked. "Congratulations! You're the new Jeopardy! champion."
That didn't last long.
I changed suits, had more makeup put on my bald head, was called "champ" by members of the crew and raced back onstage, this time to a different lectern.
My challengers were Ann and Sam, who promptly proved themselves highly intelligent and laser-quick. I only went seven of eight in the opening round, beaten on the buzzer another 10 times. It was still close. I had $4,000. Ann had $4,800. Sam had $5,000.
I got a "Daily Double" wrong in the next round, losing $1,000 but tried to battle back, getting another six correct. Then came a tough turn of events. First was an overturned answer that cost me money. Next was a minimum $5 Daily Double bet in a category I felt extremely weak on — only for me to nail the question. I went into "Final Jeopardy" with $8,605. Sam had $9,000. Ann had $12,000.
The category was "Arlington National Cemetery," which I felt could've gone in several directions. I wagered $2,500, hoping the others would get it wrong.
The question: "The remains for Arlington's first monument to unknown soldiers mostly came from this battlefield 30 miles away."
I wrote down "Manassas," crossed it out and substituted "Bull Run." Both were right. I was in second place with $11,105.
Sam wrote "Antietam," and fell to $2,000. Was it about to happen again?
Ann was smiling. She had "Bull Run" and a guaranteed victory. Her bid was a surprisingly low $1,999. I could've won had I not followed betting strategy.
"I hope David isn't kicking himself for wagering properly!" wrote Keith Williams on his blog "The Final Wager," where his math showed I should've bet between $791 and $2,604.
I was. I still am. It still stings how I lost. But it helps that all of my friends and family still refer to me as a Jeopardy! champion.
And now I want my new friend Evelyn to get the call so I can help her achieve the same.

Be very, very wary of that. (Yes, my irony meter is working.) It would be a lot easier if rescuer-types would just say outright, "I think you'd be better if you did things my way, meaning I don't accept you as you are or respect the choices you made to get there." But they never do others that favor, do they? Instead, someone who wants to fix you generally will present that disrespect as loving concern.
It's so easy to fall for it, too — to believe it's just about caring — because the emotions are familiar from having parents, teachers and mentors. It's especially easy for those with difficult parents to get sucked in, because feeling off-balance is familiar, too. They push because they want the best for us ... right?
But actually it's more like a boss who pushes to get the best from us — a subtle distinction with an enormous long-term impact on our well-being.
This boss-partner is someone to please, in your home, which over time ranges from exhausting to thoroughly demoralizing. The partner who trusts you to decide what's right for you, by contrast, is a place you feel safe working hard or putting your feet up, emotionally speaking, based on what you need. There's enormous comfort in that. Not coincidentally, it often motivates us to try harder.
This may sound like a sharp response to the soft notion of his embracing the cause of Family. But what his embrace rests on is his certainty that you can do better and that he knows best. If he doesn't grasp that, even after you explain it to him — please do, immediately — then what's to stop him from supportively insisting you can eat better, discipline the kids better, manage your career better?
Wanting to be our best selves is noble and important, yes — when it's our idea. When someone else wants it of us, it's just a tarted up form of control.

Q: How to add files ignored by a git ignore rule in my .gitignore, I have:
*.framework
*.a

However, I am using symlinks to these in various projects and since the symlinks and in .a or .framework, I can't seem to check those into Git.
Is there a command that I am missing or a work-a-round? I would like to check in the symlinks so that I don't have to create them each time. I could always write a bash script to make these if needed.

A: Git only uses the path to determine whether it should or should not ignore a file - so if it's possible to derive a pattern that captures only the files you don't want and excludes all the files you do want - that's the way to go.
However, bear in mind that git ignore rules are not set in stone; it's always possible to add a file, you just need to use the --force flag:
$ cat .gitignore
*.a
$ git status --ignored
# On branch master
#
# Initial commit
#
# Untracked files:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
#   .gitignore
# Ignored files:
#   (use "git add -f <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
#   bar.a
#   foo.a
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
$ git add foo.a
The following paths are ignored by one of your .gitignore files:
foo.a
Use -f if you really want to add them.
fatal: no files added
$

What seems often to be missed in this circumstance is this line in the help output:

Use -f if you really want to add them.

Making use of the force option, adds the ignored file:
$ git add -f foo.a
$ git status
# On branch master
#
# Initial commit
#
# Changes to be committed:
#   (use "git rm --cached <file>..." to unstage)
#
#   new file:   foo.a
#
# Untracked files:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
#   .gitignore
$  git status --ignored
# On branch master
#
# Initial commit
#
# Changes to be committed:
#   (use "git rm --cached <file>..." to unstage)
#
#   new file:   foo.a
#
# Untracked files:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
#   .gitignore
# Ignored files:
#   (use "git add -f <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
#   bar.a

EngenderHealth Participates in 2nd National Family Planning Conference
EngenderHealth joined a committed group of family planning advocates from November 7-9 2017 at the Second National Family Planning Conference in Cebu City, Philippines. Along with the goal of sharing good family planning practices and sharing research innovations in family planning technology, attendees all came with the anticipation that the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health (RPRH) law would be fully implemented. The RPRH was created to empower the Filipino people, particularly women and girls, through education and information. At the conference, Health Undersecretary of Health Herminigildo Valle was in attendance and stated that the "RPRH law is a landmark legislation that laid the foundation in the fulfillment of the reproductive health and rights of all Filipinos toward better health outcomes and socioeconomic growth and development."
At the conference, EngenderHealth's team made 27 different presentations across a broad topics, ranging from development to mobilization to multi-sectoral engagement. Dr Josephine Jabonillo, one of the presenters, said "Participating in the NFPC was an enlightening experience for me. It provided me with an opportunity to share our experiences in implementing the family planning program in our municipality. More importantly, I learned so much from the experiences of other program implementers from many places in the Philippines."
The U.S. Agency for International Development set up a booth highlighting their projects in the Philippines, including EngenderHealth's VisayasHealth project. The booth was visited by nearly 1,500 conference attendees who hailed from all over the country. Along with handouts, EngenderHealth's new 2017 Impact Report, "The Power of She" was distributed to those who visited the booth.
Juan Perez III, executive director of the Commission on Population (PopCom) executive director Juan Perez III stressed the importance of effectively implementing the ideas and innovations that came out of the conference, saying "The tremendous success of this conference sends a powerful message of unity, strength, and love to all Filipinos. It also sends a message to those who are hell-bent in delaying the implementation of family planning programs and thereby putting women's lives in danger every day." The time to take action is now and with the support of partner organizations and communities, we can continue to better the lives of women and girls across the Philippines.

Activity for ages 5 to 7.
These colorful kite puzzles are the perfect way to introduce "Magic E" words AND bring a little spring into your classroom.
Grab the free puzzles below and then make sure to hop over and grab the Flower CVC Match for a true spring fling!
To prepare this activity, I printed all of the kite puzzles on cardstock and laminated them for durability.
Next, I cut apart each of the 20 puzzles and placed the puzzle pieces in plastic bags according to their vowel sound: A, E, I, O and U.
What Are Magic E Words?
Magic E words get their name because the silent E at the end of the word makes the middle vowel say its name.
The A in "cake", for example, makes the long A sound.
And the O in "hose" says the long O sound.
That silent E uses its magical powers to change the sound vowels make so we call words that have one "Magic E words".
To introduce the game, I asked the kids what their favorite springtime activities were.
When a student mentioned flying kites, I wrote kite on the board.
Once I had given several students opportunities to share, I asked them to look at the word kite.
The letter I in the word kite makes the long vowel sound because of the Magic E at the end.
I then explained that we were going to be practicing reading Magic E words by matching the picture on the kite with the word below the string.
I spread one set of cards out on a table – placing the picture cards at the top and the word cards at the bottom.
Since the Magic E was new to most of my students, we started by working with just one vowel sound at a time, beginning with the long A sound.
After all the students had a chance to practice each vowel sound individually, I mixed up the cards and had the students work on completing all the kite puzzles.
The kids had so much fun with this spring themed activity and it was a wonderful way to practice those tricky Magic E words.
Ready to add some spring fun to your literacy centers?

Home>Entertainment> Samuel L. Jackson Blasts "Spider-Man: Far From Home" For Error: "#HeadsGonRoll"
Samuel L. Jackson Blasts "Spider-Man: Far From Home" For Error: "#HeadsGonRoll"
By Aida C.
Samuel L. Jackson wants to know what "The Actual F— IS GOING ON HERE???!!!"
Someone at Marvel better hurry and make things right with Samuel L. Jackson because he is not happy. According to recent reports by Deadline, the famed actor had some concerns with regards to his one-eyed character "Fury" in Spider-Man: Far From Home. The marketing campaign tied to the movie appears to have wrongly portrayed the Marvel super-spy Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. since Iron Man in 2008. The character's trademark eyepatched was set on the right and not the left eye. Of course, upon quickly realizing this, Samuel L. Jackson lost it. The actor shared his reaction via Instagram by revealing side-by-side promo posters which do not exactly match one another.
The post was accompanied by the following caption: "The Actual F— IS GOING ON HERE???!!! #headsgonroll #lefteyemuthafukkah." Hopefully, the marketing team at Marvel fixes this quickly before heads actually do roll. To note, Spider-Man: Far From Home is scheduled to release very soon on July 2nd. We previously reported on the timely release of the trailer which includes a PSA from Tom Holland, who plays Spider-Man, for fans who have not yet watched the Avengers: End Game movie. The movie is set to explore the series of events which occurred following the death of Iron Man.

Alba - General and Servant to the Crown, ed. Maurits Ebben, Margriet Lacy-Bruijn and Rolof van Hövell tot Westerflier
Fernando Alvarez de Toledo, duke of Alba, is best known in the English speaking world for his role early in the Dutch Revolt, where his harsh rule played a part in the development of the 'Black Legend' of Spanish cruelty. As this multi-author work proves Alba was a much more complex figure than that. He was a important member of the courts of Charles V and Philip II (although not always an entirely trusted one, spending several periods in voluntary exile on his estates when he felt he had been slighted, while Charles V advised his son to be careful of Alba's ambition). He held high command in Italy, where he brought a difficult war against the Pope to a fairly satisfactory conclusion, leading the Spanish conquest of Portugal, fought against the Protestant powers in the Holy Roman Empire. He was considered as one of the best military leaders of his period and was also an important (if not always successful diplomat), and a major patron of the arts.
This book is split into three sections. The first part is thematic, looking at Alba the diplomat, the soldier, the patron of arts, his religious views and his art. The second part in geographical, looking at his actions in the Holy Roman Empire, Italy, the Netherlands and Portugal. Part three looks at his later reputation: how he was seen in Spain; in the Low Countries (both the Dutch Republic and the Spanish Netherlands); and in his first published biography.
There quickly developed two very different versions of Alba. In Spain he was remembered as a loyal, capable, dedicated servant of the crown, and an example that should be followed by the aristocracy during Spain's long decline. In the Dutch Republic he was the cruel tyrant, remembered for executing local leaders or devastating towns, and used as a one of the great villains of Dutch history. Here the development and validity of both traditions are examined,
Here we get a more rounded view of Alba, who emerges as a valuable, ambitious and sometimes temperamental supporter of the Spanish Habsburgs, not always in favour at court, but called back in times of crisis. At the heart of most of his political actions was a belief that people owed loyalty to their legitimate monarch, and shouldn't expect to bargain with them. This includes the many charters of privileges that had been granted to communities in the Low Countries, which Alba seems to have believed got in the way of good government. There is also a feeling that Abla was somewhat unfortunate - his time in the Netherlands came late in his career, and was only meant to have been a short-term appointment. He was to wield the 'stick', and quickly be followed by Philip II in person, who would offer the 'carrot' in the form of a general pardon. When Philip decided not to come after all, Alba was left to continue with the stick. Again, in Portugal, he found himself stuck between the need for a military campaign and Philip's desire to avoid the appearance of a conquest.
This is a very high quality collection of work, giving us a up-to-date view of this complex and powerful figure, and with him a look at Spain at the height of her power.

Q: What's the point of the winstring.h header? A header file was added to the Windows API in Windows 8 which appears to be filled with pretty basic string functions that are all already available in the C runtime. There doesn't appear to be any reason why these functions would be added to the Windows API.
I only found out about them because they're used in explorer.exe
Why use these functions instead of the classic cstring ones?

A: The winstring.h header provides string handling functions for HSTRING values, a string type introduced with the Windows Runtime. It is the successor to the BSTR type used in COM.
Either one is distinctly different from a C-style string in that they explicitly store the length. A corollary of this is that either one can contain embedded NUL characters, making it impossible to reliably get the string length by calling wcslen on them, for example.
In addition, neither HSTRING nor BSTR have a dependency on any given language runtime (such as the CRT). Use of either type will thus not interfere with the language runtime used by clients. Obviously, this necessitates providing string handling functions outside a language runtime, hence we have winstring.h (and oleauto.h).


Palmorama: Will TCL make an actual Palm device?
I don't think so. According to this piece at liliputing they're going to release something. My guess is that at best this will be an Android phone with a Palm brand to it and that will be all. Worst case they don't do anything at all.
It all makes me wonder why they bought the brand in the first place. They've done precious little with it since they bought it.
Whatever happens, I can guarantee one thing. It'll be a disappointment.

Q: Solving discrete version of Poisson's equation I have an image, which is a rectangular array of pixel values. I have the Laplacian of the image, which is computed as $\Delta I =  I_{xx} + I_{yy}$ where $I_{xx},I_{yy}$ refer to the second derivatives of the image in the x and y directions respectively. The image derivatives are computed as: $I_{x}(i,j) = I(i+1,j) - I(i,j)$
$I_{y}(i,j) = I(i,j+1)-I(i,j)$
I am trying to obtain the original image $I$. Is this possible? What information is needed (in addition to the Laplacian of the image)?

A: You need the boundary conditions. The Dirichlet condition ($0$ value on the boundary) is not a natural thing to impose on an image, so the Neumann condition ($0$ derivative on the boundary) is preferred.
One can solve Discrete Poisson equation as a big linear system (part of which is boundary conditions). The system takes some effort to set up for 2D problems. There is also an approach via discrete Fourier transform: see Poisson equation with Neumann boundary conditions which has Python code.
Two things to check:

*

*The computation of Laplacian, as you described it, looks bad to me. One shouldn't compute the second derivative by applying the same first-derivative formula twice. Applying $I(i+1,j)−I(i,j)$ twice gets you $I(i+2,j)-2I(i+1,j)+I(i,j)$ while the correct expression for $xx$-derivative at $(i,j)$ is
$$I(i+1,j)-2I(i,j)+I(i+1,j)$$

*Also check how the boundary was treated when the Laplacian was computed. Is $\Delta u$ only given at the interior points of the grid, or was $\Delta u$ also computed at the boundary, using "ghost points" outside of the grid? This affects the setup of the linear system. In the latter case, the boundary condition is already built into the computation of $\Delta u$.


The jolly and white bearded figure in the red fur coat slipping down the chimney and riding his sleigh is one we are all familiar with, although he has actually only looked like that for little over a century. However, whether you know him as Father Christmas, Santa Claus or St. Nick, he has actually been around for a lot longer than that.
The story of Santa can be traced back to a 4th-century bishop, St. Nicholas, who lived in what is today Turkey. Due to a large inheritance from his parents, he was extremely wealthy for much of his life and chose to share that wealth with the poor. Whether he started the custom of hanging up stockings is not certain, although one story has it that he anonymously left a bag of money in the house of three poor sisters while they were sleeping. In parts of Europe during the Middle Ages, children were given gifts in his memory, usually on December 6, supposedly the day he died.
Saint Nicholas remained an important figure in parts of Europe, especially the Netherlands, where he was known as Sint Nikolaas. Dutch immigrants to America brought the name and the stories with them, and Sint Nikolaas inevitably became St. Nick. However, Christmas celebrations in 18th-century America were very different from today, consisting largely of rowdy and alcohol fueled gatherings. In some areas, such as New England, the celebration was largely ignored.
The name Father Christmas has origins in 16th-century England, where he was generally seen as someone who embodied the good food, revelry and overall spirit of the Christmas period. Father Christmas gradually came to be associated with Christmas Day on December 25, as Protestant England no longer observed St. Nicholas Day or the other saints' days. During the 19th century, he was depicted as wearing a green fur lined coat and spreading good cheer throughout the land.
The image that we have today of Santa Claus can be traced back to several poets, writers and illustrators during the early 19th century who decided that Santa should have a whole new look. An 1809 book by Washington Irving depicted him flying through the sky delivering gifts in a flying wagon, while an 1821 poem by an unknown author added a reindeer pulling the cart. And the following year, a poem by Clement Moore called 'The Night Before Christmas' was published, which helped to create the Santa image we have today - a fat, jolly man in a sleigh pulled by eight reindeer.
Some of the earliest drawings of the modern Santa were published in the 1860s and '70s in the American magazine Harper's Weekly. The artist Thomas Nast was commissioned to draw Santa every year for 20 years, and he gradually changed the figure over time, making him fatter and jollier, and adding his distinctive red outfit. The English Father Christmas and the American Santa Claus gradually came to be regarded as the same person.
By the late 19th century, Santa had acquired most of the trappings that we associate with him today, including a workshop at the North Pole. The introduction of Christmas cards helped to reinforce this image, and the modern image of Santa then spread back to Europe where he was known by different names in different countries; Pere Noel in France, Father Christmas in the UK, and Grandfather Frost in parts of eastern Europe.
Santa may not be real, but you can still visit his workshop at the Arctic Circle in Finland, year round. And of course, millions of excited children all over the world would beg to differ when they wake up on Christmas morning to a full stocking.


If the city of Saint-Malo is also known is probably due to its history and the presence of the famous fortified town Intra-Muros. Overlooking the Emerald Coast from the top of the ramparts, Intra-Muros each year attracts thousands of spectators looking for history and scenery. The fortified town has many historic monuments like the castle of Saint-Malo, which now houses the Town Hall, St. Vincent Cathedral, the famous walls but you will also find many other historic buildings in the vicinity of walls since at tide low you get to Fort National, the tomb of Chateaubriand but also very small Be.

George H.W. Bush said to be voting for Clinton
A prominent member of the Kennedy family says former Republican President George H.W. Bush told her that he plans to vote for Democrat Hillary Clinton for president this fall.
Former Maryland Lieutenant Governor Kathleen Kennedy Townsend posted a picture of herself with Bush on Facebook Monday and added, "The President told me he's voting for Hillary!!" Townsend later confirmed the conversation she had while meeting Bush in Maine to Politico, which shared a screengrab of the Facebook post.
Bush's spokesman, Jim McGrath, says in a statement that the 92-year-old former president's vote is private and Bush isn't commenting on the race. McGrath later said on Twitter that he's "still checking" if anyone was there to verify Townsend's conversation.
Bush hasn't offered support for GOP nominee Donald Trump, who defeated his son, Jeb Bush, in a testy Republican primary season.

Worked Version
server.js
var express = require("express");
var bodyParser =require("body-parser");
var app = express();
//Here we are configuring express to use body-parser as middle-ware.
//app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended:false}));
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/'));

app.get('/',function(req,res)
{
res.sendfile("index.html");
});

app.listen(3000,function()
{
console.log("Server started on Port 3000");
});

A: You will need to make files public before using them as static files from expressjs server as below -
app.use(express.static('public'));

This serves your public directory as static directory. Put all your static files in public directory and serve.
If you want to serve from multiple directories you can do following -
app.use(express.static('public'));
app.use(express.static('files'));

More info - http://expressjs.com/starter/static-files.html

A: The only route you show is this:
app.get('/',function(req,res)

That's for the URL: localhost:3000/.
But, the URL in your image is localhost:3000/about.html which you do not have a route for.  So, you can either make a route for that particular URL or you can use express.static() to automatically serve files from a particular directory.
Express does not automatically serve ANY files (unlike some other web servers) so any file that you want served must have a route that handles it (either individually or a route that handles many files).

What now for the Island Bay cycleway?
The Island Bay Residents Association's legal challenge failed in court so what now for the Island Bay cycleway?
Unless you've been living under a rock you will now be aware that the Island Bay Resident's Association's legal challenge against the Island Bay cycleway failed in the High Court. After two days of oral arguments it took Justice Churchman only two weeks to issue a judgement in Wellington City Council's favour. That's very quick (the judgement was expected to take between three weeks and three months) and indicates that Justice Churchman knew what his decision was pretty much straight away.
You can read the full judgement for yourself here and if you donated money to support the judicial review I suggest you do because the application wasn't even close to succeeding.
IBRA's latest update indicates an organisation in deep denial (click on images to expand)
IBRA's reaction to the news was predictably antagonistic and indicates an organisation that has lost touch with reality. According to their latest update "we are all very shocked by the outcome, especially those that were present in Court" which illustrates just how deep in denial they are. In fact, every single point they complain about in the "brief summary of our case" in their update is actually dealt with in Justice Churchman's judgement. You have to wonder if they've even read it.
It's hard to feel any real sympathy for IBRA. They were warned they had no case. Their lawyer was warned. Their supporters were warned. Even while they were shopping around for assistance they were warned they had "zero chance of success" (see below). They went ahead anyway.
The two sets of lawyers will currently be in negotiations about costs. If they can't agree it will go back to the High Court to decide. Although it may turn out to be largely symbolic (because IBRA don't have any money) I believe Wellington City Council have a duty to ratepayers to try and recover full costs. It's simply nonsense to suggest that IBRA were innocently drawn into some noble pursuit of "justice" and based on the update above they have not learned their lesson. They are seriously considering whether to appeal which would be throwing good money after bad - money that belongs to ratepayers and IBRA's supporters, who are paying twice over for this farce to continue. Their update claims they are getting an independent legal review of the decision, which I hope is true and which I hope they will listen to.
And what about the cycleway?
It's really important to remember that IBRA's legal challenge wasn't about the current cycleway but the process leading up to the decision taken by the council in September 2017 to upgrade the cycleway. Yes, you read that right - IBRA were challenging the decision to improve the current cycleway, which includes a long list of improvements that they demanded themselves.
You can remind yourself of what we've got to look forward to by visiting the council's Transport Projects website and going to The Parade Upgrade.
The only slight snag is that in the meantime The Parade upgrade has been rolled into the Newtown Connections project. Although that means a delay in the timing of the work in Island Bay it's probably a sensible decision overall because treating Island Bay, Berhampore and Newtown as one big project will create economies of scale and be a more effective use of government funding. You can follow the progress of the Newtown Connections project by visiting the council's Transport Projects website and going to Newtown Connections.
Thanks again Regan for your considered thoughts on all things cycleway. Just read the judgement. I think 'Such a submission is misguided' (118) pretty much sums up IBRA's whole case! Also 'No Court is going to direct the Council to go back and consult on options which cannot be implemented because of issues to do with safety or regulatory requirements' (161) is pretty straightforward! Feels pretty clearcut to me (pretty damning in fact), and if they are going to appeal, IBRA need to be clear with donors that there's no realistic chance of success. Agree that on a point of principle the council should seek costs – the association are being litigious, and it's unreasonable that ratepayers will foot the bill (though they probably will end up doing so, IBRA need to move on and not chew up even more council time and money).
I think the IBRA were mislead to expect that consultation should result in the option preferred by the majority. But that's not how it works. The first problem is a majority of whom. The majority of submissions favoured kerbside bur the majority of Island May residents (or Parade dwellers) favoured road-side. Following IBRA's view Berhampore residents should have a veto on any roading changes through their suburb. Clearly IB residents also have an interest and valid concerns that should be listened to as part of any consultation. On a positive note I heard that the IBRA has decided to work with the Council on the proposed redesign of the kerbside solution.


One of the occasional "extra" posts, mostly reprinted, that I upload here from time to time, to help fill the space between "Remake Chronicles" posts. This was originally posted on Unca Harlan's Art Deco Dining Pavilion in 2008, and is also available in different forms on my Facebook site and on my Harper Collins author site. I have edited the essay slightly for this republication. I am aware that some people have been vocal about opining that I must have made this up, that it cannot possibly be true. I swear to you, these events occurred exactly as related. My astonishment is palpable and still entirely justified.
In 1995 the company I worked for at the time decided to move its main corporate office from Larchmont, New York, to Boca Raton, Florida. I was one of the employees offered an opportunity to move with it. Circumstances made keeping the job a better option than staying in New York, so I agreed to make the move, finding an apartment and arranging for a professional moving company to ship my belongings. I brought everything I could carry with me in my car, and spent 10 nights in a barren apartment sleeping on an air mattress while I waited for my things to arrive.
On the day the truck arrived, I took the afternoon off so I could meet the moving men, whom I had never met before, at my apartment in Fort Lauderdale.
The first thing that happened is that the truck got lost and arrived three hours late. The driver had to call me three times to get directions—at one point reporting a current location some 45 minutes farther away than any I had directed him to — but he ultimately zeroed in on the correct address, and I ran down to the apartment complex parking lot to meet the two guys with the truck.
I must now tell you that though I'd never met the two guys in the truck, I recognized them at once.
They were both clad in overalls. The shirts underneath were neat button-downs, and they were wearing thin black ties and brimmed painter's caps.
The driver was a chubby guy on the wrong side of 260 pounds. He wore a hat and had a little moustache. He was tremendously exasperated over getting lost for so long, a circumstance he blamed on his assistant, whom he had foolishly placed in charge of reading the map.
His coworker was his physical opposite: a very thin man with protruding ears and a broad, amiable smile, charming in its sincerity but simple-minded in its affect. He may have been borderline retarded. I liked him at once, without speaking a word to him.
The two men went to the back of the truck and rolled up the gate, revealing an expanse of boxes and padded furniture. The fat man ordered the thin man to get up there and start handing him boxes. This, the thin man did. He moved so industriously, in fact, that he handed the boxes to the fat man faster than the fat man could stack them on the ground. At one point he put one heavy box on top of another that the fat man was already holding, almost causing the fat man to fall over. The fat man let out a pained "Whoufff!" The thin man apologized, without full comprehension of his trespass.
The thin man and fat man looked at each other. This was a great idea.
They spent several minutes putting the boxes already unloaded back into the truck.
The thin man struggled mightily with his burden. The effort this took was so hard on him that his legs wobbled like liquid, slipping against the risers as he struggled for purchase. The smile, however, the eye contact with me as he shared that unwavering smile, never left him. It was like he was putting on a show, with me as audience.
After a heroic effort, they reached the first turnaround. The cabinet/bookcase got wedged against the railing, and would not go any further. The fat man said that he needed to get above it, so he could guide its movement past the bend. "Bring it back down!" he ordered.
The thin man started to comply.
They managed to get the big item up the stairs with only two or three minor mishaps, each of them involving minor physical injury to the fat man. This involved the cabinet being dropped on the fat man's foot, the cabinet jamming the fat man's hand against the railing, the cabinet crushing the fat man against the wall. Each time the fat man let out a horrified yelp, and each time the skinny man apologized, each time with blinking that established a total dearth of comprehension.
The two men reached the second floor railing with the heavy items, breathing heavily from all the effort. I asked them if they'd like some water before they continued. They both allowed as how it had been a long drive and how they would like to use my bathroom. I opened the door for them. The skinny man started to enter. The fat man stopped him by blocking his way with his arm, pointed at his own chest to establish that he took precedence.
He marched through the door.
Would you believe me if I told you that he tripped at the threshold and went flying?
The fat man rolled his eyes again. I said, "On the bed frame." The skinny man brought my mattress into the bedroom.
With all the furniture moved, it was now time to get those boxes. A word about how I labeled my boxes. There were 28 boxes. I had wanted to make sure that none were missed, so I wrote on each one of them with thick magic marker, in letters several inches tall. They were all labeled something like, Castro Box 1 of 28. Or 2 of 28. Or 3 of 28. Et cetera. The skinny man asked me, "How many boxes do you have?" Again I stared, and said, "28." The fat man rolled his eyes yet again. The thin man went and started getting the boxes, one at a time, in order, actually moving them in the pile on the truck so he could deliver them numerically. I will note again, for the record, that his big broad smile—never showing teeth, but still an upward curve of his lips—remained on his face during all 28 box trips, none of which the fat guy helped him with.
There were no further disasters as the rest of my items entered the apartment. I signed for the delivery and tipped them. The skinny guy reached for the money, but the fat guy pushed him aside and took it all. I thanked them.
The fat guy said, "Service with a smile." He actually said that.
The skinny guy smiled at me again as the pair went down the stairs. For the first time, he took off his own hat and scratched his head. His hair was, I must report, short on the sides but stood upright when the hat was removed. It was, I swear to God, bright orange red. The only color it could have been.
Feeling like a man in a dream, followed them out, standing there as they drove away.
And since then I have always wondered how often they were recognized.

"Shiner Premium," says Mauric, the brewmaster at Shiner beer's Spoetzl Brewery in Shiner, where he has worked for 35 years. "I used to come to the brewery with my parents and watch them drinking it."
Shiner Premium was also the very first beer Mauric ever tasted, consumed in the same town where he was born and raised. And while Mauric's tastes might not have changed much over the years, the brewery where he's spent his entire career sure has. Today, Spoetzl Brewery (www.shiner.com/brewery) produces 30,000 cases of beer and between 1,000 and 1,200 kegs of beer per day. Those are pretty big numbers considering they are being churned out of the tiny town of Shiner, population 2,069. What's even more impressive is that Spoetzl Brewery ships more than 6 million cases of Shiner beer across the nation to 44 states, the Cayman Islands and, most recently Monterrey, Mexico.
Founded in 1909, Spoetzl Brewery claims to be the oldest independent brewery in Texas, maintaining operations even during Prohibition, when it kept afloat by making ice and near beer. But the little brewery has held its own in today's competitive craft beer industry, adapting with the times and tastes of its customers, says Mauric. While you can still get a Shiner Premium, you can also enjoy an array of active beers including the newest member of the family, Shiner White Wing, a Belgian white ale with hints of coriander and orange peel.
When Mauric began his career, he was among 38 people working at the brewery, which produced 30,000 barrels of beer per year. Today, the brewmaster heads up operations alongside 120 full-time employees who still hand-craft each brew — about 500,000 barrels per year.
"We produce a lot of beer, but this is still a small environment where we are doing one brew at a time," Mauric says.
But there is more to do than just sample the brew in the town that bills itself as "the cleanest little city in Texas." Take a trip to Shiner, where you will discover a small town big on heritage and history.
Distance from Austin: Drive just over 83 miles southeast along an easy, straight route dotted with open fields, oil rigs and cattle and you will find yourself in Shiner.
Don't miss: After touring the brewery, tuck into Shiner's downtown vintage gem, Antiques, Art and Beer (www.antiquesartandbeer.com), where owner Beverly Sanders paved the way for locals and tourists to "come drink and shop" about a decade ago. As one of three bars still operating in Shiner and a local hotspot for live music, private parties and events, you can shop this eclectic spot for everything from antiques and jewelry to locally made goat-milk lotion and soap while choosing from 155 kinds of wine and 189 different beers on offer. Here, we bought a Shiner pint glass for $7.50 and got it filled with a Shiner beer for just $1 more; we also sampled a few varieties of Sanders' delicious homemade fresh fudge. Howard's (www.facebook.com/HowardsShinerTX) may appear to be a mere convenience store, but besides gas, fishing bait and ammo, you will also find Shiner memorabilia, a variety of beers on tap and a covered beer garden with live music on most Saturdays. The Saints Cyril & Methodius Catholic Church, listed in the National Register of Historic Places, is another main attraction in Shiner. The nearly century-old landmark draws visitors from around the world with its red brick Romanesque Revival style architecture, majestic murals, magnificent painted interior and stained glass windows imported from Bavaria. The Gaslight Theatre, Shiner's opera house and social center from 1895-1927, has been restored to its original beauty and now puts on impressive amateur productions several times a year. Other historic sites to check off your list include the 1895 Louis Ehlers Cigar Factory, located across the street from the old City Hall, and the Edwin Wolters Memorial Museum, which tells Shiner's legacy through interesting historical displays.
Eat here: Grab a sausage kolache for breakfast or a plate of fried chicken for lunch at Friday's Chicken & Pastry, open seven days a week from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. The casual eatery also bakes its own pies and serves an array of hearty country-style meals and locally famous burgers like the Friday's Big Daddy and Friday's Cock n Bull. Werner's Steakhouse (www.wernerssteakhouse.com) is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week, offering hometown favorites like chicken fried steak, seafood, salads and Italian dishes. It's Shiner's only sit-down restaurant serving alcoholic beverages.
Stay here: Old Kasper House Bed & Breakfast (www.oldkasperhouse.com), built in 1906, is located just a stone's throw from downtown Shiner and features an array of Victorian-inspired rooms, homes and cottages. For a quiet getaway, head to Henkhaus Country Inn (www.henkhauscountryinn.com), a country-style weekend home in a peaceful setting. The Shiner Country Inn (www.shinercountryinn.com), just three blocks from downtown, boasts affordable rates ($54-$62), clean rooms and high-speed Internet. Pick from the Shiner Blonde or Shiner Black private bedroom/bathroom suites at Shiner Hillside Guesthouse (www.shinerhillsideguesthouse.com), a revamped 1892 farmhouse turned bed and breakfast for just $69 per night.
Always free: Take a free tour Monday through Friday at 11 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. accompanied by four complimentary tastings at Spoetzl Brewery. While tours aren't offered on weekends, you can still sample four free tastings of Shiner, shop for souvenirs in the gift shop and watch a video of the brewery's history every Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Kids will love: Delight the kids with a sweet treat at Licorice and Lemon Drops (www.licoriceandlemondrops.com), Shiner's old-fashioned candy shop that boasts more than 300 kinds of nostalgic candies plus a variety of made-from-scratch goodies. It's the only place in Shiner — and most parts — where you can still buy something for a penny. After the little ones are sugared up, let them run it off at Green-Dickson Municipal Park, a 148-acre facility on the northwest edge of town featuring children's playgrounds, picnic areas, lighted tennis and volleyball courts, fishing and a baseball/softball complex. Welhausen Park, a smaller, one-square-block park, is in the heart of downtown Shiner boasting a bandstand, historic monuments and a playground.
Famous festivals: Shiner's most famous festival is its annual Half Moon Holidays, a two-day celebration complete with a parade, band, food vendors and fireworks display taking place on July 4 and 5 this year.
Not-to-miss nearby: On your way to or from Shiner, make a stop in Lockhart, "the barbecue capital of Texas," where four barbecue establishments including Smitty's Market and Black's Barbecue bring roughly 250,000 people a year to eat in the town.

New credit on electricity bills set to take effect in new year
by Timothy Schafer Local Journalism Initiative Reporter on Thursday Nov 24 2022
Nelson Hydro is extending a credit on electricity bills as part of a Province of B.C. initiative to address the impacts of global inflation on families and small businesses — Nelson Hydro photo.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, thanks to a one-time cost-of-living rebate through Nelson Hydro.
The city-owned utility is extending the credit on electricity bills as part of a Province of B.C. initiative to address the impacts of global inflation on families and small businesses in B.C.
What it means is that people who are customers of the local utility will receive a $100 credit on their first electricity bill in the new year. However, only one credit is available per residential customer, regardless of the number of accounts each customer holds.
For commercial customers, there will be a credit based on electricity consumption — between Oct. 1, 2021 and Sept. 30, 2022 — which is expected to average around $240.
The credit is available to all current Nelson Hydro customers — active since Oct. 1 — and will automatically appear on hydro bills.
"Customers will receive the bill credit during the winter heating season when energy use spikes and bills are at their highest," noted a press release from the City of Nelson.
Mayor Janice Morrison acknowledged the province recognized how much of an impact global inflation has had on people.
"This credit will also go a long way towards mitigating the impact of scheduled electricity rate increases set to come into effect on Jan. 1, 2023," she said.
There is another credit British Columbians will receive in the new year.
Families and eligible people will automatically receive the new B.C. Affordability Credit through the Canada Revenue Agency, the same way the enhanced Climate Action Tax Credit was received in October.
"An eligible person with an income of up to $36,901 will receive the maximum B.C. Affordability Credit with the credit fully phasing out at $79,376. An eligible family of four with a household income of $43,051 will get the maximum amount, with the credit fully phasing out at $150,051," noted a release from the province.
The credit amounts to as much as $410 — in early January 2023 — for a family of four to help offset added costs.

Rufai Zakari : A New Dawn
Rufai Zakari - A New Dawn
Rufai Zakari
Based between Accra and Bawku, Rufai Zakari examines consumerism, environmental pollution, labour, trade, and the perils of industrialization in contemporary Ghanian Society. The founder of Rujab Eco-Art Foundation in his hometown of Bawku, he bases his practise on the recycling of waste in the streets of Ghana. After decades of tribal conflict which took countless lives and left the city in ruins, Zakari is now looking to the future with optimism and a strong ambition to rebuild what has been lost, while inspiring hope in his community.
Mimicking the traditional medium of painting, Rufai Zakari challenges the conventional means of creation by bringing waste to the centre of his practise. His colourful celebration of the strength and versatility of women are formed by stitching together thrown away plastic bags, food packaging, water sachets and plastic bottles. By giving new life to these items, he seeks to shed light on our environmental impact, our relations to each other and our communities, while confronting our ideas of value and its role in a consumerist society.
Flamboyantly dressed figures appear against colourful patterned backgrounds, at once painterly and graphic in style. Ghanaian artist Rufai Zakari utilises upcycled plastics and found objects as his artistic materials, creating uniquely textured surfaces that highlight the vibrancy of local culture whilst also drawing attention to more universal issues such as climate change. For his first solo exhibition at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery, London, entitled A New Dawn, Zakari presents a stunning new series of works that celebrates the revitalisation of his hometown Bawku, which is now emerging from decades of violent tribal conflict, and the wider potential of art to enact change.

Throughout his career Zakari has been interested in how art can not only engage with social issues but also actively involve local communities. This initially led to the artist moving away from the traditional format of painting on canvas to painting graffiti on streets of cities in Ghana where he began to notice huge quantities of waste, particularly plastic materials, littering the urban environments. In an effort to engage with this issue on both a personal and social level, Zakari decided to begin incorporating these found objects - including plastic bags, food packages, water sachets and plastic bottles - into his work, imbuing them with beauty and new purpose. The artist invites women and children from the local community to collect and bring him plastics which he pays for, and he also employs individuals to help him wash, dry, compress, cut and fuse the scraps into the shapes required for his compositions. The pieces are then carefully arranged on top of the artist's preliminary sketch, and stitched together to create a woven collage. Significantly, the stitch marks are left visible, drawing attention to all the different elements coming together to make a whole.
The portraits in this new series depict individuals, predominantly women and children, who were directly affected by the conflict in Bawku, but instead of portraying suffering, Zakari chooses to highlight the optimism of new generations by reimagining his subjects in strong poses, fashionable clothing and vibrant settings. Although he often works from photographs, the artist envisions a kind of alternative reality through which he aims to empower the individual by allowing them to see themselves from a new perspective. While the colour palette of each work is inevitably guided by the available materials, the artist pays careful attention to how each person is portrayed, and often asks his subject to choose their favourite colour so that some essence of their personality is captured in the representation.
At the same time, these latest works aim to document a brighter future for the wider community of Bawku, where the artist's studio is now based. 'Historically, Bawku has been deprived of so many basic livelihoods, including education, good healthcare, peace, freedom of movement, infrastructure development etc,' says the artist. 'Many of its youth, including me, had no choice than to flee in search for better options elsewhere in the country or abroad, but when I returned, I saw people being happy, children going back to school, a new sense of hope that had been missing for a long time.' Zakari's studio offers a creative sanctuary for locals to gather, take part in workshops and participate in the art making process, and the works in this exhibition are, in many ways, the result of a collaborative process. As such, the portraits can be seen as artistic documents of not only the individuals they depict, but also the town's aspirations for the future.
While the works in A New Dawn are culturally specific on the one hand, they also serve as a vibrant celebration of community life and coming together in a more universal sense. In a similar way, the upcycling of waste into beautiful, unique pieces of art initiates a form of employment and environmental engagement on a local level whilst also highlighting how creativity can alter perspectives and enact meaningful social change. Above all, the exhibition heralds much-needed optimism, vitality and joy.

Following up the pair's six-issue mini-series The Man of Steel, writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Ivan Reis begin their run on the new ongoing Superman title. Superman #1 re-introduces readers to Superman's world, offers the creation of a new Fortress of Solitude, and includes cameos of Justice League members checking in after recent events.
There are several little gems in this issue, but I think my favorite might be the short discussion between Superman and the Martian Manhunter. During J'onn's plea for Superman to taking a more active role in the leadership of Earth, Superman keeps bowing out to solve some issue or another halfway around the world (but always giving J'onn 99% of his attention when he returns). A great illustration of Superman jumping into action whenever needed, it offers interesting argument from the Martian while still showcasing Superman's modesty in the face of what he can do and what is asked of him.
The issue ends in a cliffhanger that suggests Superman's victory of Rogol Zaar may have been premature. I'll be curious to see just what more is revealed in issue #2. Worth a look.

Manchester United: Things you should know...
Manchester United: From the Back Pages
FIFA investigating Paul Pogba transfer to Manchester United
By Brent Maximin@brentmaximin May 9, 2017, 10:44pm BST
Share All sharing options for: FIFA investigating Paul Pogba transfer to Manchester United
It has emerged today that FIFA have launched an inquiry into Paul Pogba's world record transfer from Juventus to Manchester United. From the looks of it, the investigation seems to concern how much money was paid (a veritable f*ck ton) and to whom (anyone seen Mino Raiola lately?).
Football's world governing body has written to the Premier League club "to seek clarification on the deal".
It is believed to concern who was involved in the £89.3m transfer, and how much money was paid to them.
For the most part, United have managed to avoid any appearance of misconduct in the transfer market (with the exception of one hugely suspicious Bebe deal), so this comes as a surprise, even taking into account the eye-watering sums that were reportedly paid to Pogba's agent at the time. Newly leaked contract details suggest that Raiola stands to make an obscene amount of money from this one transfer: £41m. Crikey.
We're sure to hear more about this in the coming days, so we'll keep you updated.
