Q: Creating Array inside another array using foreach loop php Its been four hours I have search everywhere on google and SOF but unable to find the answer. This is what i have tried so far. Here is my code so far
        $tmp_array = array();
        foreach ($cms as $key => $val) {

            $cDate = date('Ym', strtotime($val['day_date']));
            $tmp_ids[] = $val['id'];

            if (array_key_exists($cDate, $tmp_array)) {
                $tmp_array[$cDate]['new_visitors'] += $val['new_visitors'];
                $tmp_array[$cDate]['ids'] = $tmp_ids;
            } else {
                $tmp_array[$cDate]['new_visitors'] = $val['new_visitors'];
                $tmp_array[$cDate]['ids'] = $tmp_ids;
            }

        }

its output is coming like this,
Array
(
    [202001] => Array
        (
            [new_visitors] => 797
            [ids] => Array
                (
                    [0] => 31
                    [1] => 32
                )

        )

    [202002] => Array
        (
            [new_visitors] => 461
            [ids] => Array
                (
                    [0] => 31
                    [1] => 32
                    [2] => 33
                    [3] => 34
                )

        )

)

but i want the result array like this,
Array
(
    [202001] => Array
        (
            [new_visitors] => 797
            [ids] => Array
                (
                    [0] => 31
                    [1] => 32
                )

        )

    [202002] => Array
        (
            [new_visitors] => 461
            [ids] => Array
                (
                    [0] => 33
                    [1] => 34
                )

        )

)

Any suggestions, what am i doing in my code?
The ids are basicall primary key of the table and the "new_visitors" are count of the visitor those who visit on my site. but i havent find any solution so far.
Here is my $cms array.
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [id] => 31
            [day_date] => 2020-01-30 00:00:00
            [new_visitors] => 459
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [id] => 32
            [day_date] => 2020-01-31 00:00:00
            [new_visitors] => 338
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [id] => 33
            [day_date] => 2020-02-01 00:00:00

The Suit Yourself Podcast
2022 Rookie Draft Class
Jon Hausler
Non-Offensive Offenses and What to do With Them
What happens when offenses aren't offensive? They break and fall apart.
Recently, there have been several NFL teams that have been struggling offensively, and it's hard to sit through a game and watch without getting annoyed, like the Transformer movies.
I'm talking about teams like the Chiefs, the Giants, the Broncos, and the Buccaneers. Unfortunately, they seem to be struggling at the worst time. It's the start of fantasy playoffs, and you need to start players you can trust, players that will get you to the championship.
If you're like me, you may have players on each of these inconsistent offenses, which makes your lineup decisions that much harder this week. What should you do with these ineffective players and their teams?
Let's take a look, team by team, starting with the most frustrating: the Chiefs.
If you compare the Week 1 Chiefs to the Chiefs we're seeing now, you'd think they were a completely different team. Their season started out strong, with an upset over the Patriots that few saw coming.
Fast-forward to today, and they can't even beat the struggling Giants or Bills. In fact, the Chiefs have scored only four touchdowns on offense since Week 8, which is the fewest in the league. Everyone thought that they would bounce back against the Bills, but the welcome back party never started. Their offense looks broken right now, and we can only hope that it gets repaired soon.
However, that doesn't mean you should bench all of your Chiefs. In fact, most of them are still start-worthy. Let's talk about the four Chief studs.
Alex "Check-Down" Smith
It looks like the regular Alex Smith of 2016 is back. Smith is now averaging 6.3 yards per pass, after he was averaging 8.7 yards per attempt, which was first out of all quarterbacks.
At this point, trusting Smith is not possible. He's had at least one turnover in the past four games, and hasn't scored more than 20 points since Week 7. You can still expect low double-digit points, but there may be better options on your waiver wire this week. If I had him, I wouldn't be starting him until the offense rights itself.
Hunt hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 3 and hasn't cracked double-digits in standard scoring since Week 7. His struggles aren't because of lack of effort, but lack of carries and opportunities. The past three weeks he's had nine carries, 18 carries, and 11 carries. Those weeks he posted rushing yard totals of 37, 73, and 17. On top of that, he is hardly involved in the passing game at all, with Charcandrick West coming in obvious passing situations and when they're behind. Game plan and play calling have been lacking, and Hunt is suffering.
This week may be more of the same. They're playing the Jets this week, who only are allowing 3.5 yards per carry over the last seven games. However, West is out this week, which means Hunt should be given more opportunities than usual. He's hard to trust given his last few weeks, but at this point, you probably don't have better options on your bench. He's still start-worthy, but he's downgraded to a RB2, so lower your weekly expectations.
Right now, Tyreek Hill is only valuable in PPR leagues. The past two weeks he's had seven catches in each game for 68 yards and 41 yards. If you're in a standard league, that's not enough to trust him in the playoffs. Right now, he's very boom or bust, but if the home/away splits are to be believed (he booms when it's an away game) then this week is going to be big for Hill.
Travis Kelce seems to be the player least affected by the recent offensive woes. Last week was the only week where he's struggled, posting three catches for 39 yards. Before last week, he's had either over 100 yards or a touchdown in four straight games. You can still start him with confidence every week.
The Giants have scored a touchdown on just 10 percent of their drives since losing Odell Beckham to injury in Week 6. This is the lowest rate in the league.
Now, to make matters worse, Eli Manning has been benched for Geno Smith. That's something I never thought I would ever say.
This downgrades the entire offense and makes almost every Giants player not worthy of starting. However, there are a couple players to consider.
Evan Engram maybe still get his with Smith throwing to him, but he's been dropping balls constantly and has lost his TE1 status. Over the past two games, Engram has four catches for 27 yards on 13 targets. Ouch. I'm still starting Engram in my leagues, but I'm not expecting as much.
Honestly, Orleans Darkwa is the only Giant I trust to perform decently. If the Giants are smart (which they're not) they would game plan to run the ball as much as possible, to distract from the fact of how horrible Geno Smith is.
This week will be a test for all the Giants players to see how they do without Manning.
As the carousel of starting quarterbacks continue, almost every player on the Broncos is suffering. From Siemian to Osweiler to Lynch, now back to Siemian, it's been a roller coaster this season.
It's also been a running back roller coaster. The Broncos have turned their backfield into a complete timeshare, with C.J. Anderson and Devontae Booker splitting the work, and a little bit of Jamaal Charles mixed in. Booker and Anderson totaled just 13 touches last week. Booker had eight and Anderson had five. Basically, no Broncos running back is startable, but Booker seems to have the edge and the coach's favor.
The only players worthy of a start are the wide receivers, but they've also been inconsistent. The past two games, Emmanuel Sanders has had a combined total of five catches (two in Week 11 and three last week). In standard scoring, he's only scored double-digits twice this year. He's a flex at best, and I'm benching him where I can.
Siemian starting definitely downgrades Demaryius Thomas slightly. Thomas was Osweiler's favorite target, but his history with Siemian isn't as great. Out of all the Broncos players, Thomas is the one I trust the most, and he has a favorable matchup this week against the bad Dolphins defense. The past three games, starting wide receivers have all had at least five catches for 80 yards against them.
What looked to be a promising year is now disintegrated. With the poor play and injury of Jameis Winston, to the struggling and under-performing of Doug Martin, the Buccaneers have definitely failed their high expectations.
Now, Martin is in the concussion protocol, which means Jacquizz Rodgers and Peyton Barber are back in the mix, but neither of them are trustworthy of startable, in my opinion.
However, Winston is back this week. But can you trust him? No. It's a wait-and-see approach to figure out which Winston we'll get: the good or the ugly?
The only TB players I trust are the wide receivers: Mike Evans and DeSean Jackson. With Ryan Fitzpatrick throwing to them, they've still put up decent numbers. Evans the past two weeks has yard totals of 92 and 78. The past three weeks, Jackson has had yard totals of 82, 28 (and a touchdown), and 60. With Winston back, they both get a boost against an exploitable Green Bay defense.
Even though these offensives aren't offensive right now, there is still some hope for these players. Like the Cowboys this week, there could still be some spark left. But it's playoffs and the time to be cute with your lineups has passed. Now you need to start players that you know are going to perform, without much risk of a dud. Fantasy football can be an extremely frustrating game, but if you play the matchups and your lineup right, it can pay off. Good luck this week, and show your opponent that you're just plain better than he/she is.

The production, in fact, establishes the sort of contrast that makes "Closer" a deliciously eclectic listen. From the swirling disco strings and towering synths featured on the vampire-themed "Lovers Forever," to the restrained orchestral sounds on the touching ballad "Sirens," no theatrics are left unexplored, stamping the album as unmistakably Cher.
The songwriters, which include P!nk and Wayne Hector, master the themes of survival and control. Take the latter's "Favorite Scars," a folk-rock narrative that positions Cher as a wise sage, proclaiming to her listener that "love is a sword when you've got no defense/ Love is the rock we throw ourselves against." The best lyrical content shines through in the P!nk-penned country crooner "Lie to Me," when Cher sings somberly over a bevy of slide guitars and mid-tempo drums, wondering "Is this all common now?/ Where's that fairy tale that sold us out?" While Cher has never been afraid to speak her mind, lyrics like these contribute depth to the album by reminding the listener that no struggle to survive goes without its consequences.
The album's lyrics combined with Cher's committed vocals make for a dynamic collection of songs that constitute the perfect soundtrack for a night on the town, from getting down at the club to the pained goodbyes of the morning after.


At Berry Productions we have an amazing group of people, both in front and behind the camera. For our new film 'Wonderful', that group has expanded even further!
An old man who is suffering from Alzheimer's, who believes he was once the great superhero – Mr Wonderful!
Taking the lead role in 'Wonderful', David plays both the fragile yet frustrated elderly Donald, and the strong and determined Mr Wonderful to perfection!
Looking after her elderly father is a constant struggle for Elizabeth, especially when she must constantly remind him that he is not a superhero.
Joanne plays the role brilliantly, showing both the love she feels for her father, and the frustration of being his carer.
An obnoxious doctor who Donald Willful deeply mistrusts. Dr Range has no time for the elderly and treats Donald like a child.
Playing the (possible) villain of a film is always fun and Richie has a lot of fun with this character! He gives a great performance as the untrustworthy doctor!
Donald's young grandson is a huge fan of superheroes. Will he believe that his grandfather is Mr Wonderful, his favourite of all the heroes?
This is eight year old Chance's first serious acting role and he plays the character brilliantly!

W hy is using natural skin care products so critical? Skin is the largest organ of the body and absorbs a lot of substances that are applied on it. Some artificially synthesized ingredients are not just absorbed but also start accumulating in the skin. Some are absorbed in the circulation and reach other places in the body too. This could lead to unwanted and dangerous consequences such as allergies, rash, changes in metabolism and hormonal levels and could even lead to cancer.
There are a lot of legislations in place in North America and Europe to ensure only the safe ingredients are used in cosmetics, but the risk of exposure to harmful ingredients is still quite high and real. Use of natural or naturally derived ingredients as much as possible, reduces this risk greatly. Another important consideration is the purity of ingredients used. Sometimes the artificial ingredient used, such as a preservative may not be harmful, but if it's not of a high purity level, the contaminants in it could lead to problems.

Q: Probability identity similar to $P(X_J=x, X_K=y)=\sum_{z} P(X_{J \cap K} = z) P(X_{J \setminus K}=x-z)P(X_{K \setminus J}=y-z)$. Let $x, y \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}$. Let $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ be independent random variables. Denote $X_J = \sum_{j \in J} X_j$ for $J \subset \{1, \ldots, n\}$. Then for $J, K \subset \{1,\ldots, n\}$,
$$
P(X_J=x, X_K=y)=\sum_{z} P(X_{J \cap K} = z) P(X_{J \setminus K}=x-z)P(X_{K \setminus J}=y-z). \quad (1)
$$
Let $x, y,z \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}$ and $J, K, L \subset \{1,\ldots, n\}$. Is there some identity for $P(X_J=x, X_K=y, X_L=z)$ which is similar to (1)? Thank you very much.

A: The principle behind statement (1) is that the random variables $X_{J\cap K}$, $X_{J\smallsetminus  K}$, and $X_{K\smallsetminus J}$ are independent because the sets $J\cap K$, $J\setminus  K$, and $K\setminus J$ are disjoint.  Now as we have:  $$\begin{split}X_J&=X_{J\cap K}+X_{J\smallsetminus K}\\X_K&=X_{J\cap K}+X_{K\smallsetminus J}\end{split}$$
Then summing over all supported values of the common term gives us: $$\mathsf P(X_{\small J}{=}x,X_{\small K}{=}y)=\sum_z\mathsf P(X_{\small J\cap K}{=}z, X_{\small J\smallsetminus K}{=}x{-}z, X_{\small K\smallsetminus J}{=}y{-}z)$$

We may partition $J\cup K\cup L$ into a similar series of disjoint sets.$$X_J=X_{J\cap K\cap L}+X_{J\cap K\smallsetminus L}+X_{J\cap L\smallsetminus K}+X_{(J\smallsetminus K)\setminus L}\\X_K=X_{J\cap K\cap L}+X_{J\cap K\smallsetminus L}+X_{K\cap L\smallsetminus J}+X_{(K\smallsetminus J)\smallsetminus L}\\X_L=X_{J\cap K\cap L}+X_{J\cap L\smallsetminus K}+X_{K\cap L\smallsetminus J}+X_{(L\smallsetminus J)\smallsetminus K}$$
So...$$\mathsf P(X_{\small J}{=}x,X_{\small K}{=}y,X_{\small L}{=}z)=\sum_{t,u,v,w}\mathsf P({X_{\small J\cap K\cap L}{=}t},{X_{\small J\cap K\smallsetminus L}{=}u},{X_{\small J\cap L\smallsetminus K}{=}v},{X_{\small K\cap L\smallsetminus J}{=}w},{X_{\small J\smallsetminus K\smallsetminus L}{=}x{-}t{-}u{-}v},{X_{\small K\smallsetminus J\smallsetminus L}{=}y{-}t{-}u{-}w},{\small X_{L\smallsetminus J\smallsetminus K}{=}z{-}t{-}v{-}w})$$

Showa Kinen Park is a national park located across Tachikawa and Akishima. You can enjoy various beautiful flowers in the park, which boasts a scale of about 35 Tokyo Domes.

Q: How to download canvas content as a svg(.svg extension) image/file in angular 6 and above I have some canvas graphs(used chart.js to draw graphs) in UI and i want to download graph as svg image/file in angular 6 and above.
I have gone through many sites, almost took half a day but did not get any solution for this and even i tried html2canvas to save as svg file but it did not support. some where i heard as d3.js and some other libraries have the capacity to draw svg, but i want to save as a svg file and please go through my below code, any answer would be appreciated.
.html:->

      <canvas baseChart [data]="pieChartData" id="myCanvas" [labels]="pieChartLabels" [colors]="pieChartColors"
        [chartType]="pieChartType" [options]="pieChartOptions" [plugins]="pieChartPlugins"
        [legend]="pieChartLegend">
      </canvas>

  <button (click)="svg_method()">DOWNLOAD</button>

.ts:->
svg_method(){
      console.log("downloading functionality");
}

A: You can try
var theCanvas = document.getElementById("theCanvas");
var theImg    = theCanvas.toDataURL("image/svg");

A: So canvas operates with raster graphics and the charts.js leverages exactly that. So what you are getting is bitmap graphics out of it.
Canvas allows you to easily extract image data as raster graphics, but not easily as vector graphics as to do so there needs to be a mechanism to run through image's pixel space, trace contours etc and eventually create SVG markup.
Specifically for your use case someone wrote this library:
https://gliffy.github.io/canvas2svg/
Give it a try.
Other alternative would be to use potrace.js or similar libraries, but I think it can be a rabbit hole for your use case.


If you are considering storing your valued belongings in a storage-unit facility, make sure you don't overlook an important consideration–insurance! Never assume you are, automatically, covered by the facility's insurance plan since most of these businesses do not offer automatic coverage, and understandably so. In most cases, any insurance policy the facility owns will cover damage that might occur, only, to the storage building, itself. Additionally, your very own homeowner's or renter's insurance policy may be of little value towards protecting the contents you place in a public storage site; although you should contact them to make sure. If your regular insurance does provide off-premises coverage, those homeowner's or renter's policies might have a cap of $1,000 on jewelry, for example, or a cap of $200 on rare books, etc. . Would that cap cover the entire value of those irreplaceable items?
In otherwords, assume nothing, do your homework, ask alot of questions; and once you feel you are adequately insured, get peace of mind knowing your prized possessions are protected with a policy that, affordably, covers them all.
Assuming you choose the facility's insurance, you will pay a nominal fee. This kind of low-cost add-on becomes part of your monthly rental expense, resulting in one, easy payment.
Most homeowner's insurance policies have high or very high deductibles. Depending on the storage facility, deductibles should be a fraction of what your homeowner's policy would demand. A hypothetical example would be your paying $500 for a homeowner's insurance deductible while paying $100 for a storage facility's insurance deductible.
As a side note, it would be prudent to know what types of hazards are included in the policy, such as accidental fire, smoke, water damage and theft. Would hurricane, tornado, or earthquake damage be included? How about damage due to moths, rodents or mildew? Make sure you ask specific questions so you are left with no surprises.
Any claims that might be filed through a storage facility's policy would, in no way, negatively affect your existing homeowner's or renter's insurance policies. Therefore, your premiums, with your homeowner's or renter's policy, would never be impacted and increase.
Most storage facility insurance policies cover items that could be damaged in-transit. Speak with your facility representative to find out how many in-transit miles would be part of this coverage; but up to a 50 mile radius is not uncommon. Very few, if any, homeowner's or rentor's policies would include this kind of coverage.
Upon signing your storage rental lease, be aware that vehicles are, rarely, covered by a storage facility policy. If you have a vehicle that will be stored in this type of facility, you will be asked to provide proof of your auto insurance; and that's assuming the facility is willing to store your vehicle.
** Car titles, legal contracts, etc.
Each storage company can have different policies with different provisions. It will be up to you, the customer, to be fully aware of how your possessions are covered, given any, unforeseen, circumstances.
According to the Self-Storage Association, nearly 10% of American households rent a storage unit at any given time.
The Insurance Information Institute highly recommends taking photos or videos of items you will be storing. The documentation will save time and eliminate frustration if a damage claim should arise.
B. Jones posts many articles on a variety of topics. One topic he covers is the topic of self storage units.

Winter Tennis League Results
Wednesday, April 18 2007 @ 04:40 pm BST
Contributed by: Admin
Sampford Peverell have ended Willand's two years of domination in the Stones Men's Winter Tennis League. The back-to-back champs lost pole position to Sampford in the closing stages, while Hemyock weren't far behind in third place.
"Willand beat us soundly twice during the season, so we were lucky to end up ahead of them at the end," said Sampford skipper Simon Townley.
"We were lucky with a few strong results towards the end of the season."
The trophy will be presented by representatives from league sponsors Stones Solicitors at a special friendly match on April 23.
Sampford will host a team from Stones in a match to round off the winter season from 6pm to 8pm.

Q: Reference as member variable Can someone explain me why it isn't possible for the class TaxWay in the code to hold a member variable Bank that is initialized by a reference? What should I change in the code to make it correct?
When I change the member variable to a reference as Bank&, then it works. I thought that the same should happen with a "not reference variable". How can it be done?
class Bank;

class TaxWay : public Way
{
  public:
    TaxSquare(int, int, Bank&);
    virtual void process();

  private:
    int taxAmount;
    Bank bank;
};

TaxWay::TaxWay(int anID, int amount, Bank& theBank)
: Way(anID),taxAmount(amount),bank(theBank)
{
}

I create an object as:
TaxWay TaxWay9(9,150, theBank);

A: Two important points:

*

*If you want to declare the member variable as Bank bank, then you have to include the header file which has the definition of class Bank. Just forward declaration, as you have done, would result in compilation error.

*However, if you want to declare it as Bank & bank OR Bank *bank, then forward declaration is enough. The definition of class Bank is not needed in this case, unless you want to access any member of Bank (for example, in inline definition of some member functions of the class TaxWay).

A: One thing (that may or may not be your problem) is that you've declared Bank as a forward declaration with no definition. When the compiler reaches TaxWay, you won't be able to declare a member variable of type Bank because the compiler doesn't know anything about the class Bank yet.

A: In the example the TaxWay class cannot hold a copy of the bank, because you have not defined the Bank class. At a minimum the size of the Bank class must be known so space can be allocated.
On the other hand, depending on what the Bank contains, it might not be a good idea to copy it. Will that also copy the money in the bank? :-)

Metro's Student Fareless Pilot Gathering Momentum a Couple Months In
By Joe Linton
Image from Culver City Bus fareless promotional video
This article supported by Los Angeles Bicycle Attorney as part of a general sponsorship package. All opinions in the article are that of the author, and do not necessarily reflect those of LABA. Click on the ad for more information.
Back at the start of October, Metro and LAUSD leaders celebrated the start of Metro's fareless transit pilot – sometimes called FSI for Fareless System Initiative. Students get to ride L.A. buses and trains for free through June 2023.
As Streetsblog reported at the time, some caveats were in order. Free rides apply to only participating school districts and only on participating transit lines (L.A. County's biggies – LAUSD and Metro – are participating). Students could not use their existing student pass TAP cards, but had to wait for new TAP "GoPass" cards to be distributed.
Back in October, it didn't seem all that urgent to get the program up and running quickly, because surely students would have new cards in hand when Metro resumed fare collection on January 10, 2022. (Metro buses have been effectively fareless under COVID, though riding Metro rail does require fare payment.)
My daughter occasionally rides the bus to her central L.A. LAUSD elementary school. She finally received her new fareless TAP card last week – the day before winter break – two and a half months after the start of the Metro/LAUSD pilot. Streetsblog L.A. founder Damien Newton's kids have yet to receive new TAP cards via their Westside LAUSD elementary school.
Streetsblog asked around to try to find out what is causing the delays in getting the fareless pilot up and running.
An LAUSD spokesperson told Streetsblog that, "due to supply chain issues, Metro has been sending weekly shipments of TAP cards to Los Angeles Unified. To date, we have received just over 300,000 cards." LAUSD has 600,000 students. (Added 12/28: an LAUSD spokesperson clarified that they are distributing TAP cards to approximately 439,000 students, not 600,000. Independent charter schools authorized by Los Angeles Unified would have to enter into their own agreements with Metro in order to access FSI.)
LAUSD first prioritized distribution to high school students, then middle school students, then third to fifth graders, then kindergarteners to second graders. They have also prioritized students experiencing homelessness and provided cards to students who request them via their Community of Schools office (though, as an LAUSD parent, I couldn't actually tell you what that is – and wouldn't know to go beyond inquiring at the front office at my daughter's school).
LAUSD's representative stated that students who have not yet received a TAP card can expect to receive one within the next one to two months at their school.
Metro is working on a faster alternative for students who already have TAP cards. Prior to the current FSI pilot, students needed a special TAP card to be eligible for Metro's student fares ($1 per ride, instead of the usual $1.75). I have written about the somewhat cumbersome process to get those cards – which has resulted in most students not actually having one. Metro is in the process of generating registration codes that will allow students to add GoPass to existing TAP cards. This would have been great for my daughter two months ago – and should ease some of the stated supply chain issues.
As of last week, according to Metro spokesperson Dave Sotero, the new registration codes "just became available" but LAUSD hasn't received them yet.
On the bright side, Culver City Bus offers an example of where the student fareless pilot is working well. CCBus was part of Metro's smaller, early fareless mini-pilot prior to the Metro board's September approval of the current countywide pilot. Culver City Management Analyst Dia Turner told Streetsblog that they reached an agreement with Metro in July, and were able to roll the program out at the start of the Culver City Unified School District (enrollment 7,000) school year in mid-August. CCBus had already resumed collecting fares (in September 2020), so bus-riding students had a fiscal motivation to take advantage of the program.
CCBus created a program logo and ran a promotional campaign aimed at getting the word out to students and parents, and also made sure school staff were aware of the new program. Check out the campaign's website and video.
Turner reported that CCBus and CCUSD have distributed nearly 1,500 GoPass TAP cards to students. Of those, 840 have been registered/activated – mostly high school students (525), with some Middle (220) and Elementary (95). GoPass riders have used their new TAP cars for 13,657 fareless CCBus trips – accounting for 23 percent of overall CCBus trips in the past month. Turner says that "Ridership is up. Complaints are down." and that, "We have had a steady stream of TAP card requests from the Middle School and High School since the program began."
CCBus is planning further program promotion as students return to school in January.
Even with a difficult roll-out – and a program that falls well short of transit advocates push for universal fare-free transit – Metro and its transit agency and school district partners are providing much needed free trips to many students through L.A. County. The program appears poised to continue to gain momentum in the year ahead.

Although attaining the knowledge and expertise necessary to organize a successful craft fair might take time, you can still ensure that your vendors and attendees enjoy the event. Here are some practical craft sale ideas.
You can break down the entire process into bite-size pieces and finish a lot of the work before the day of your craft sale.
Date and time: Consider your target attendees when deciding the date and time. Weekends are good if your target crown goes to school or work. Events that start in the afternoon and run until evening can also work.
Location: Pick a convenient and easy-to-find location with plenty of parking. Make sure you plan for inclement weather.
You need to organize and map out the venue for your vendors. Having instructions such as arrival times, parking locations, and clean up times is helpful.
Social media sites offer free advertisement, particularly since most people are now subscribers. Vendors can easily find and locate your event if you create a Facebook or Instagram page and keep it busy. Creating a social media page will prove effective, especially when combined with print advertising. Vendors will not only think your event isn't serious if you don't advertise yourself, but they will also question your advertising abilities.
Post about your sellers as they sign up, and get people excited about both them and the activities at your craft sale. Start reaching out at least six months before the event. Busy sellers usually plan their year ahead, meaning they can book up to six months in advance. You can get more free advertising by posting the vendors you added to your Facebook page and asking to be tagged in their posts. Remember, you can retain your audience and even add to it by maintaining the same page every year. You won't have to start from scratch the next year.
Breaking up your genres is advisable. Having too many vendors dealing in the same craft causes saturation and reduces the likelihood of success. Have 3-5 vendors per craft and find out what your target audience wants to see.
Most of the problems you will encounter have a solution and providing information is one such fix. For instance, vendors might be wondering if they will be able to track their sales at your craft fair. Educate them about helpful tools like TallySheet, which acts as a cash register and allows multiple sellers to track their sales at a single craft sale.
Because venues usually have quirks, pointing this out is important. Vendors are accustomed to dealing with oddities such as wind and light. Providing such information ahead of time allows your sellers to prepare. If internet connectivity is an issue, informing your vendors about it in advance helps to ensure they don't lose sales that need to use credit or debit. Sellers will have a secure connection ready if such an issue was expressed ahead of time. Let your vendors know whether they need to bring food, water, or electricity. They can prepare themselves if they know.
You need to make arrangements for food. People will leave events that don't have food and water, especially those with children. Unfortunately, they rarely come back. Giving people a reason to hang out and spend more time is beneficial since it translates to more sales.
Once you have booked the venue and the applications start coming in, you will need a lot of assistance to make the event a success. Having volunteers available would be fantastic, especially when setting up and taking down. Since most churches and high schools require community service hours, you can try calling them. Vendors working alone will need quick breaks, and they would greatly appreciate it if they had someone to hold their space for a few minutes.
You need to find out if and where your efforts paid off. Offer your customers a giveaway and utilize the drawing slip to collect information about how they discovered your craft sale. Find out how the show went from your sellers, they may have noticed something you missed. Keeping a vendor list and contacting the same sellers first might prove helpful when it comes to filling your booths next time. Satisfied vendors always come back. Having used them before, you will be confident that they are a great match for your craft sale.

Finding, Freezing and Attaching Assets: A Multi-Jurisdictional Handbook is about how to find out whether a defendant has any assets before initiating costly litigation, arbitration, or insolvency proceedings, and how to freeze such assets with the aim of eventually enforcing a judgment or award. The globalization in trade relations has resulted in a steady increase in cross-border disputes and, due to the ease with which assets can be moved around the world with the help of online banking and fiduciary service providers, parties are increasingly finding themselves suing or being sued outside their home jurisdictions. As a result, there is increased interest among clients with regard to the finding and freezing of assets as the parties involved in commercial disputes these days are doing their best to expatriate assets as well as undermine enforcement.
The purpose of this book is to provide the reader with as much information as possible on asset identification on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis and also on the client's decision of whether or not to freeze assets once the assets have been identified.
invoking remedies available to a party facing asset shielding manoeuvres.
Nineteen country chapters, written by lawyers with decades of hands-on experience in helping their clients find, freeze, and attach defendants' assets provide practical guidance to legal professionals representing parties in cross-border commercial lawsuits, international arbitration proceedings, simple debt collection matters, enforcement proceedings, divorce proceedings, inheritance matters, and other legal matters where the assets in dispute are thought to be located abroad. Each contribution offers an overview of pre-trial asset tracing techniques and rules regulating freezing orders and enforcement methods in the jurisdiction covered – describing not just what the law says but how the law actually works. The jurisdictions covered include several offshore havens that are frequently used to hide assets in.
This book provides the reader with an overview of the research environment and the sources of information available in different jurisdictions to thereby assist lawyers in finding out whether the other party has assets to pursue. There has been a need for some time for a book of this kind, due to the trend in international litigation and arbitration, and the tendency of parties to hide and remove assets. The book appeals equally to both litigation and arbitration proceedings and is an indispensable tool for international litigators, arbitration lawyers, and lawyers involved in cross-border insolvency and debt recovery proceedings, as well as for academics and scholars involved in legal research projects or law reform programs.


I'm not about to say the city rushed us, but something about heading to the coast provides a completely different mindset. We left Lake Oswego, headed down a scenic highway with wineries left and right. Had we more time, or a limo driver, Bob and I would've been happily tipsy. Since that wasn't the case, (but a girl can dream), we headed to a winery recommended by Food & Wine, Stoller Wine. Stoller, named one of the best in Oregon, boasted a solar-powered, sunlit tasting room with 180 degree views of the rolling hills of their estate. Sold. If we had one winery to visit, this would be it!
The drive to reach Stoller brought endless vineyards, gorgeous estates, and many, many, fruit stands. Our pleasant drive ended before we knew it. Having never done a wine tasting before, Bob and I were happy to partake in their six part sampling, including Pinot Noir, and Reserve Chardonnay that we brought home. We relaxed in the shade before continuing to Newport.
We arrived in Newport just in time to have a lovely dinner with family, and head to Agate Beach for our first sunset. Incredible dunes build up there and shift daily, based on the wind and tide. Bob snapped desert-like photos of me climbing them, rain boots in hand, then we watched the sun ease into the horizon. Our next coastal adventure was to explore Devil's Churn the following morning. We headed south from Newport, and climbed down to the churn itself, where the tide rushed in. I'm always astounded by the power of Oregon's jutted coastline. The PNW is the people's coast, with no portion of it privately owned, so we could venture without any inhibitors. I tend to take full advantage of this. Bob and I scared each other a bit, I think. Me, perching on the ledge of the churn, and him clamoring over rocks to take my photo. What else is new?
The remainder of our day included a leisurely walk on the beach, clamoring over rocks to find a completely excluded strip of sand where we dared to venture into the water. That didn't last long! We really enjoyed it though along with the path back to our car lined with marionberries, which we happily snacked on.
Another highlight of our time in Newport would be loading up sea kayaks and venturing into the bay. It was busy with tourism, fishermen, and playful seals, which I had a rather close encounter with. I paddled out of the way of some boating traffic, and was admiring a seal perched on a far off buoy, when suddenly we heard a splash. Bob turned to look behind me and saw a seal plunge under the water not more than ten feet from my kayak. I'm sad he missed the iPhone photo op by a few seconds, but I think his primary concern was staying above water. Seals really love sunning themselves, and resting on boats, docks, buoys, or anything stationary. Adorable, right? Not so much, when the average seal weighs around 250 – 300 pounds. My kayak would flip too easily with even a brush against our seal friend. Thankfully, we paddled on and saw him splashing a small distance away. What a cool experience!
Another favorite for us would have to be our trip to the town of Depoe Bay, and Boiler Bay alongside. The tourist jut out wasn't terribly exciting, since you can't see the submerged boiler there during high tide. We decided instead to find a path to the rocky bay below. It seemed that there wasn't one, so we forged our own, through trees, slippery slopes, and a little jump down to the rocks. Nature is overwhelming, when you find yourself alone. It's what I long for most sometimes. The two of us stood in the sheltered bay, saw a gently dripping waterfall, and I of course, continued on. I wanted to walk where the water breaks, to a gorge of my own discovery. This, of course resulted in me soaked my rain boots and giggling uncontrollably. Classic Shan. Maybe next trip I'll be sporting hip waders.
I loved this portion of the trip, though I could by no means choose a favorite. As far as the food scene goes, we hit up Rogue Brewery, and enjoyed some fresh seafood a couple times a day. Rogue brought another tasting tray of spirits – a really nice treat!


Forelles are one of the smallest varieties of pears.
Forelle pears may be smaller than other pears, but they make up for it in sweet flavor and beautiful appearance. Known as a great "snacking" pear, Forelles are as wonderful to eat as they are beautiful to see on display!
Forelles are one of the smallest varieties of pears, a little larger than Seckel pears. Their symmetrical body, often bell-shaped, begins with a small round base that tapers evenly to a short neck. Because of their small size, Forelles are typically not the best choice for most recipes; the exception being those that showcase the Forelle's unique characteristics, like in colorful salads and other fresh uses.

419 Neon Demonstrates the Science Behind Signage
August 5, 2016, 5PM EST
531755317553175419 Neon Demonstrates the Science Behind SignageRoger Borg owns 419 Neon, where he works glass, gas and electricity into everything from commissioned projects for Google and sculptural works of art to fixes for broken beer signs.2016-08-05 02:35 pmdisabled2365818073true
By Maddie Orton
Arts Correspondent
419 Neon is as much a laboratory as it is an artist studio. Owner Roger Borg works glass, gas and electricity into everything from commissioned projects for Google and sculptural works of art to fixes for broken beer signs.
"I always tell people, basically, if you can draw it with a pencil, we can fabricate it in neon because neon is so linear," said Borg. "It's basically just a giant, long line that you bend into shape."
Of course, the process is slightly more complicated than that. It starts with a drawing. Today, Borg finally has a break in his schedule to work on a very special project — a piece based on his 5-year-old son's artwork. A lined-out version of the drawing is created digitally and then printed.
"It will literally take what's on the screen — I set what height and width I want it to be — and it gives me a full-size pattern," Borg explained. "And then from that pattern, that's what I use to bend the glass."
There are many ways to manipulate what's essentially a single line into a complete design, and Borg doesn't take the task lightly.
"I just kind of have to figure out which is the least circuitous and most efficient way to bend it," he said.
"This is like a logic puzzle," I remarked.
"Yeah, it is. And every project is different, and every bender is different," he said.
Then there's the matter of creating those eye-catching colors with noble gases. Neon appears reddish in color and argon appears blue.
"There's the neon and argon gas, and you take that gas…and you mix it with different phosphors that are coated on the inside of the tubes," explained Borg. "So you take the color of the gas, the color of the phosphors and then there are some bulbs also…which the glass is actually colored."
But before the long glass tubes can be filled, they have to be shaped. Borg turns on a mixture of pumped air and natural gas and lights a torch. He blows into the glass tube to prevent it from collapsing on itself or to expand the width.
Is it dangerous at all?
"The gas itself is not," he said. "More dangerous is the electricity that you play with. Some of the bulbs do have a trace amount of mercury, but it's minuscule, so…it's something you get tested for and it comes out fine and you're like, 'OK, I can go back to work.'"
That being said, Borg doesn't consider this work. He says he gets lost in his projects and the hours fly by, which is a good thing. Earnings from his business allow Borg the means to experiment with the art form.
"If I didn't have the business, I wouldn't have the studio, I wouldn't have the capacity to take on those personal projects and really see what I can push the medium toward," he said.
Right now, that includes creating high-design lighting and a flower for his 5-year-old son.

Nancy Rolock Appointed the Henry L. Zucker Professorship
Nancy Rolock appointed Henry L. Zucker Professorship
Nancy Rolock, PhD, has been appointed the Henry L. Zucker Associate Professor in Social Work Practice and Associate Dean for Research and Training.
Henry L. Zucker, MSSA 1935, was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and graduated from Glenville High School. He also graduated from Western Reserve University in 1932. He began his career as a social worker with local agencies, and during World War II, served as a special consultant in Washington, D.C. In 1946, he began his long association with Cleveland's Jewish community when he accepted the position of associate director of the Jewish Welfare Federation of Cleveland.
When he retired in 1975, he had been executive director (1948 to 1965) and executive vice president (1965 to 1975) of the Jewish Community Federation. Under Zucker's leadership and Executive President Sidney Vincent, Cleveland's Jewish Community Federation became known as one of the most successful in the country, raising more money per capita than any other community federation. Zucker developed the Endowment Fund system, now common in Jewish communities, and was a consultant to other Jewish federations and local and national social organizations, including Case Western Reserve University, Baldwin-Wallace College, the Welfare Federation of Cleveland, United Torch Services, the National Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds, United Jewish Appeal and the Joint Distribution Committee.
Established in 1985 on the occasion of Zucker's 50th graduation anniversary from the School of Applied Social Sciences, the professorship is dedicated to advancing knowledge in community-oriented approaches to social work practice.
