Q: Query for Dynamic Fields in MongoDb I am trying to query some data in MongoDb that has a known document structure but the fields are not known. Here is three documents from my test collection. In this example, the fields "Data1" and "Data2" are known values but the fields within the sub-documents are not known (Ex. NumberOfVehicles, LocationOfIncident, & TestReason).
{
  "_id" : "5a32cf74cbf20b446c70f969",
  "CreatedDate" : "2017-12-14 19:22:05.233Z",
  "Data" : {
      "Data1" : [
          {
              "NumberOfVehicles" : "4",
              "LocationOfIncident" : "Hollywood"
          }
      ]
  }
},
{
  "_id" : "5a3abff0ccf20b17642214b7",
  "CreatedDate" : "2017-12-20T19:53:56.318Z",
  "Data" : {
      "Data1" : [
          {
              "NumberOfVehicles" : "5"
          }
      ]
  }
},
{
  "_id" : "5a0de88bccf20b2e649a89f4",
  "CreatedDate" : "2017-11-16T19:34:09.341Z",
  "Data" : {
      "Data2" : [
          {
              "TestReason" : "Random"
          }
      ]
  }
}

I would like to query a particular data section ("Data1") across all documents and get a result like this:
{
  "_id" : "5a32cf74cbf20b446c70f969",
  "CreatedDate" : "2017-12-14 19:22:05.233Z",
  "NumberOfVehicles" : "4",
  "LocationOfIncident" : "Bangor"
},
{
  "_id" : "5a3abff0ccf20b17642214b7",
  "CreatedDate" : "2017-12-20T19:53:56.318Z",
  "NumberOfVehicles" : "5"
}

I'm close, but just can't seem to get rid of the arrays. Here's what I have so far:
db.runCommand({
  aggregate: "test",
  pipeline: [
    { $group: { _id: "$Data.Data1" } },
    { $unwind: "$_id" }
  ]
}).result

which gives:
[
    {
        "_id" : {
            "NumberOfVehicles" : "4",
            "LocationOfIncident" : "Bangor"
        }
    },
    {
        "_id" : {
            "NumberOfVehicles" : "5"
        }
    }
]

Any suggestions on how to get it more into a tabular format like my desired format above? This data is being used in a third party reporting product and requires a more table-like structure.

A: You can use below aggregation query in 3.6 version.
$match stage to filter documents where Data1 is present.
$unwind to flatten the data in Data1.
$mergeObjects to merge the other document fields with $let expression to get rid of embedded document structure and project embedded Data1 fields.
$replaceRoot to promote the data to the top level.
$project with exclusion to drop the Data field.
db.testcol.aggregate([
  {"$match":{"Data.Data1":{$exists:true}}},
  {"$unwind":"$Data.Data1"},
  {"$replaceRoot":{
   "newRoot":{
    "$mergeObjects":[
      "$$ROOT",
      {
        "$let":{
        "vars":{"data1":"$Data.Data1"},
        "in":"$$data1"
       }
      }
    ]
   }
 }},
 {"$project":{"Data":0}},
])

A: You can start with filtering your collection to leave only documents having Data.Data1. Then you need to unwind it to transform an array of elements into multiple documents with single item Data1. Then you have to move your two fields _id and CreatedDate two levels deeper into Data1 to be able to use $replaceRoot to get exactly shape you need.
db.collection.aggregate([
{
  $match: {
    "Data.Data1": { $exists : true }
  }
},
{ $unwind: "$Data.Data1" },
{
  $addFields: {
    "Data.Data1.CreatedDate": "$CreatedDate",
    "Data.Data1._id": "$_id"
  }
},
{
  $replaceRoot: {
    newRoot: "$Data.Data1"
  }
}
])

Toilet Training Tip – Ferret pooping in the wrong place?!
My favourite quick tip to use when you're toilet training your ferret – and you find them pooping somewhere they're not meant to. This can be used for untrained ferrets as well as those who just need a little reminder after an accident!
Pooping out of place can be an early sign of an intact jill coming into heat. I am expecting this to start happening in the next few weeks and it will be straight to the vet for jabs.

Connecticut regulators approve UIL Holdings merger with Iberdrola
Stakeholders now voting on deal

NEW britain >> State utility regulators have approved the $3 billion merger between New Haven-based UIL Holdings and Spanish energy giant Iberdrola.
The ruling handed down Wednesday by the state Public Utilities Regulatory Authority comes two weeks after utility regulators gave tentative approval to the merger. But while the deal got PURA's approval that the merger is in the best interest of shareholders and ratepayers, the vote by the agency's three commissioners was not unanimous.
The deal must still be approved by shareholders.
Commissioner Michael Caron voted against the deal, arguing it might adversely effect ongoing efforts by UIL to make the distribution networks of its natural gas and electric subsidiaries in Connecticut more resilient in the face of storms.
In writing his dissenting opinion, Caron said Iberdrola's acquisition of UIL Holdings "presents many unknowns for the Authority and Connecticut ratepayers."
"Iberdrola is a multi-national conglomerate that is currently engaged in regulated and unregulated activities," Caron said in his dissenting opinion. "Consequently parts of Iberdrola's business may be more inherently risky than its regulated utilities. These risks outweigh the minimal public benefits provided in the settlement agreement."
PURA Vice Chairman John Betkoski said in a statement that "the combination of direct and indirect ratepayer benefits and public benefits in the settlement tip the scale in favor of finding that the enhanced proposal is now in the public interest." PURA Chairman Arthur House also voted in favor of approving the merger.
Michael Coyle, a PURA spokesman, said while a split decision ruling by PURA's commissioners "is certainly not unprecedented, there really aren't that many of them. There have probably been fewer than a half dozen such votes in the past decade, according to Coyle .
The benefits that Betkoski refers to include:
• Bill credits totalling $20 million to customers of UIL Holdings subsidiaries United Illuminating, Southern Connecticut Gas, Connecticut Natural Gas in the first 12 months after the merger closes.
• An additional $12.5 million in credits to CNG customers over a 10-year period starting in 2018.
• An additional $7.5 million in credits for SCG customers over the same period, plus $1.6 million in savings to ratepayers of the natural gas company associated with the utility's replacement of portions of its natural gas mains.
• A freeze in distribution rates for UI customers through Jan. 1, 2017, and for customers of CNG and SCG through Jan. 1, 2018.
• A $2 million annual contribution for three years to Connecticut's Clean Energy fund. The money would be used to promote public and private investment in activities such as improving energy efficiency and expanding renewable power offerings.
• An independent certification every three years that Iberdrola is in full compliance with the rules, regulations and requirements of the World Bank and five other international banking organizations, an apparent response to concerns PURA commissioners had raised about the Spanish company being at the center of five recent cases of fraud and corruption around the world.
• UIL and its subsidiaries must keep charitable and philanthropic giving at a level between $500,000 and $800,000 over the next four years.
• Hiring 150 people, either as permanent employees or contractors, in the first three years after the merger.
• Fund a $30 million cleanup of the former English Station power plant in New Haven. If the cost of cleaning up the defunct power plant site, which is located on an island in the middle of the Mill River, is less than $30 million, the two merger partners agree they will turn over the remaining amount to the state "for a public purpose to be determined by the governor, Connecticut's Attorney General and the commissioner of the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection."
New Haven Mayor Toni Harp said PURA's approval of the deal "improves the outlook and accelerates the timetable for environmental remediation of English Station."
"(It's) a long sought-after resolution for that dormant waterfront parcel to benefit Fair Haven (residents) and the entire city," Harp said in a statement. "Members of my staff will begin meeting with Iberdrola representatives immediately to map out cleanup strategy and return that property to productive use."
Michael West, a spokesman for UIL Holdings, said that while company officials are still reviewing the PURA ruling, "we are pleased with what we have seen so far."
"We will continue to work to remain a company that respects its customers and the environment." West said.
Shareholders have already begun voting on the deal. Voting closes on Friday, West said, and results of the shareholders' vote will be announced then.
Massachusetts utility regulators still must rule on the merger, he said. UIL owns one utility in the state, Berkshire Gas.
"They (Massachusetts regulators) have typically voted after Connecticut regulators because they are on a different schedule," West said. "We have asked them if they could rule on our application by Dec. 18."
James P. Torgerson, president and chief executive officer of UIL Holdings, is scheduled become the head of Iberdrola's entire U.S. utility operations, but be based in New Haven, once the deal closes.
Iberdrola's American subsidiaries are Central Maine Power Co., Maine Natural Gas Corp., New York State Electric & Gas Corp., and Rochester Gas and Electric Corp.

My pain management doctor had let go of their acupuncturist who used to do my acupuncture and injections. About a month and a half ago when I went in for my appointment, my doctor told me my past acupuncturist was no longer with the practice and she would be doing my injections and acupuncture.
While there she hit my radial nerve with a needle while doing an injection. After leaving I noticed that my whole hand and forearm were numb. I called the practice back to tell them of the situation and they told me to go to the emergency room right away.
I followed their instructions and the doctors at the emergency room told me that my doctor hit my radial nerve badly, and I will be without feeling in a few of my fingers and forearm for a few days to a few weeks. They put me on an intense steroid treatment and sent me home. They said that my doctor should have to pay for this as well. However, my doctor does not agree.
Upon starting acupuncture I never had to sign a waiver, the only waiver I had signed was for being prescribed medications, maintaining a drug free record, and agreeing to random drug screenings.
I am now left with a $250 copay and a $369 hospital bill, which I do not feel that I should have to cover since my doctor was at fault. I would appreciate if someone could tell me if I am at fault or if she is at fault so that I can try to have her pay to balance of my hospital bills. Can I legally force my doctor to pay my costs since she caused them? What can I do here? Thank you.
The doctor who struck your radial nerve is responsible for your injury and subsequent medical costs. Whether you signed a release or not is irrelevant. Here is where the "but for" rule applies… But for your doctor's mistake, you wouldn't have had to pay for emergency medical costs, nor would you have had to endure unnecessary pain and suffering.
Submit the copay bill along with the hospital bill to your doctor. You can do so in person, or by mail. Explain to the doctor her actions caused you to sustain unnecessary pain and suffering, and out of pocket costs. Tell the doctor you expect her to send a check for the full amount of those costs within the next seven (7) days. If you send your letter by mail, make it certified, return receipt requested.
First: You can forget about the matter and move on.
Second: You can file a complaint with the Ohio State Medical Board (if you rely on this option, make sure you tell the doctor you are considering taking such action if she doesn't cooperate).
Third: You can file a small claims lawsuit. In the lawsuit, you can ask to be compensated for your co-pay and hospital bill, out of pocket expenses for medications, etc., lost wages (if you had to miss work), and pain and suffering. In the State of Ohio, the maximum amount you can sue for in small claims court is $3,000.00.
Let the doctor know your intention is to settle the matter amicably, and without the need for legal action. If she has some modicum of business sense she will cooperate.


Last Sunday, I followed my family went to visit for some lightning for my new house. After looking for the lights then we went to Lebuh Cecil(Seventh road in Penang) 'hunt' for some tea time foods. At there many of people and tourist like there's food. Especially the famous Koay Teow T'ng that I have! Let's look what food we 'hunted'.
We had a lot of meals there. Every meal seems is so delicious! My dad have one plate of Wan Tan Mee and my grandmum have a plate of fried noodles! My mum kept sharing with my sister! I have myself a bowl of Koay Teow Soup and cendol! Cool. I like this hawker stall so much because of it has a lot of foods! Overall the food is delicious! Tourist choice, as a penangite you must try it out!
I was there recently too and they are lined up in my upcoming posts!


"The Great Wave" is a color woodcut, 10 x 15 inches and was done in 1831 as a part of a series of woodblock prints known as "The Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji". It is in the Asian collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, New York.
Katsushika Hokusai (1760 to 1849) was born at Honjo Warigesui near what is now Tokyo. He changed his name more than 30 times and during his later life called himself (Gakyo Rojin Manji) "The Old Man Mad About Art".
Briefly described: "The Great Wave" shows three boats caught in a massive storm at sea. The mysterious, sacred and enormous Mount Fuji has shrunken to a small cone in the center of the picture because it is so far away, and its shape is echoed by the secondary wave that is catching one of the fishermen's boat.
More about the picture: A contemplative view of the pictures reveals a reference to the ancient Chinese icon of "Yin Yang" with the violence of the wave contrasting with the quiet of the sunlit sky behind it.
More about the artist: At age 19, Katshusika started learning the skills to produce woodcuts. His most important works were created after age 60. At age 80 he was found sobbing because he felt he had not captured the spirituality of the land/seascape he had just finished. When he died at age 89, he was still asking for an extension of ten more years, or even five more years in order to become "a true artist". He was an eccentric man with a limited vision. He changed his dwelling place 93 times during his life, and turned out around 30,000 works of art.
SallyB's comments: A very difficult piece; the terry cloth that is used for the foam of the wave is hard to work with. This took about nine months to complete.

Gloucestershire teacher jailed for abuse of trust sexual assault
Gloucestershire teacher Thomas Hancock has been jailed following the sexual assault of a pupil at his school, reports Gloucester Live.
Hancock, aged 29, of Beyon Close in Cam, Gloucestershire, was jailed for 16 months at his sentencing at Bristol Crown Court, according to the local news website GloucesterLive.
The offences involved pupils aged 17 and 16. Hancock pleaded guilty to sexual assault and sexual assault on multiple occasions in a position of trust on the girl aged 17. He pleaded guilty to causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity, in a position of trust, on the girl aged 16.
It is reported that the teacher groped the 17-year-old and sent lewd footage of himself to the second victim of his abuse.
As well as the prison sentence, Hancock was given a 10-year sexual harm prevention order.
Leigh Day partner Alison Millar, who leads the law firm's abuse team, said:
"The abuse of position of trust offence means that individuals in certain roles who exploit vulnerable teenagers can face, as in this case, prosecution and punishment. The Positions of Trust law is now being strengthened to cover sports coaches and faith leaders in the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill, which is currently passing through Parliament."

Q: Analysis by row with multiple functions in dplyr I'm trying to parse the cases (rows) of a data.frame with dplyr, but to no avail. I created two functions for this:
f1 <- function(x) {
  c(s = sum(x),
    m = mean(x),
    v = var(x))
}

f2 <- function(x) {
  apply(x, 1, f1)
}

My data.frame (data_1):
for (i in 1:6) {
  assign(paste('var', i, sep = '_'),
runif(30, 20, 100))
}

data_1 <- do.call(
  cbind.data.frame,
  mget(ls(pattern = '*v'))
)

Using dplyr functions:
library(dplyr)

data_1 %>%
  mutate_at(.vars = vars (starts_with('v')),
            .funs = funs(.= f2))

data_1 %>%
  mutate_if(is.numeric, .funs = funs(.= f2))

Error in mutate_impl(.data, dots) : Evaluation error: dim(X) must have a positive length.

Since the analysis is done in the rows, and I have three functions (sum, mean, and variance), the expected return is three columns.

A: In fact, although not deprecated, rowwise() does not play well with other grouping and summary functions, so is best avoided in dplyr.  A useful alternative can be to group by row number.  Here is a solution to the above using this approach.
colNames <- syms(paste0("var_", 1:6))
data_1 %>%
   group_by (row_number()) %>%
   summarize(dataMean = mean(!!!colNames),
             dataSum = sum(!!!colNames))


One week later, a woman named Lilly Buckner drops by their new PI office with a proposition: find her missing granddaughter, or she'll turn in a video of Leonard beating the dog abuser. The pair agrees to take on the cold case and soon discover that the used car dealership where her granddaughter worked is actually a front for a prostitution ring. The mystery of her disappearance only deepens from there.
I don't think we ask for trouble, me and Leonard. It just finds us. It often starts casually, and then something comes loose and starts to rattle, like an unscrewed bolt on a carnival ride. No big thing at first, just a loose, rattling bolt, then the bolt slips completely free and flies out of place, the carnival ride groans and screeches, and it sags and tumbles into a messy mass of jagged parts and twisted metal and wads of bleeding human flesh.
I'm starting this at the point in the carnival ride when the bolt has started to come loose.
In Lansdale's contemporary crime thriller (the latest in his Hap & Leonard series) about two East Texas "brothers from another mother" who earn money where they can – from chicken sexing to private investigating and more – the first person narrative is at once down home and sharp as a diamond tipped glass cutter. This dichotomy sets the tone for narrator Hap Collins's philosophy of life: even though things can appear to be opposites their multiple facets allow them to peacefully coexist. (Reviewed by Donna Chavez).
This latest installment . . . features strained humor, excessively vulgar language, and a paper-thin plot. The characters, both good and bad, are devoid of any likable characteristics, even Hap as he sentimentally ponders parenthood. The attempted sharp repartee falls short in this failed attempt at a humorous mystery.
Starred Review. Terrific ... This shambolic, action-packed novel will ensnare new readers and satisfy devoted fans alike. With the Sundance Channel's highly anticipated Hap and Leonard cable series coming in early 2016, this really could be Lansdale's year.
Starred Review. This is damn fine reading from Lansdale ... Don't miss it.
Starred Review. The camaraderie and down-home scatology carry the day. Let's hope there's more of that good feeling to come in this terrific series.
Nine Days, Koenig's debut, is atmospheric, gutsy and fun, and Julia Kalas is an intriguing new heroine in crime fiction.


Various species of Passiflora, climbing vines native to the South American tropics and rainforest, have been domesticated to eat as fresh fruit or to make refreshing and nutritive juices. In the Brazil Amazon alone, over 200 species of fruit-bearing Passiflora have been cataloged. Yellow passionfruit, (Passiflora edulis) is the most widely cultivated species in the warm humid tropics, and its yellow gelatinous pulp is mixed with water and sugar to make drinks, sherbet, ice cream, jam, jellies and salad dressings. Yellow passionfruit grows on 10 to 20 foot long vines and are the size of large lemons, wrinkling slightly when ripe.
Passionfruit is catching on as a popular drink in both industrial and developing countries and a new fruit juice may be hitting the American market in the near future. Scientist have created a new fruit in a 20 year old research project, called "Passion Pops," by cross breeding the tropical Passiflora edulis with its US relative, Passiflora incarnata and is producing tennis-ball sized fruits. The fruits range in color from yellow to green, dark maroon and purple. One of the benefits of the new fruit is that it will grow farther north than the traditional US passionfruit and provide an alternative to farmers who have been hurt by winter freezes of citrus crops. Several US-based juice companies have expressed interest in the new fruit and some new juice products may be on the market in the near future.
Passionfruit has been a food staple for the people and animals of the Rainforest for eons. The leaves of many of the Passiflora species have been used for centuries by indigenous tribes as a sedative or calming tonic. The passionfruit of Passiflora edulis has been used by the Brazilian tribes as a heart tonic and passionfruit is still used today in South American traditional medicine. Antonio Bernardes notes that: "A cup of Maracuja tea [leaves] or 2 glasses of juice will naturally calm down the most hyperactive child, and for this reason it is highly valued by Brazilian mothers." and Daniel B. Mowrey notes: "The Brazilians even have a favorite passion flower drink, called maracuja grande, that frequently used to treat asthma, whooping cough, bronchitis and other tough coughs." In Peruvian traditional medicine today, passionfruit juice is used for urinary infections and as a mild diuretic. Researchers have documented the properties of passionfruit juice in at least 4 studies.

Q: javascript alert function strange behaviour So I am learning JavaScript.... I have gone way past this basic stuff in my learning but can't figure out why this wont work:
   function message(){
      alert("message");
    }

<button onclick="message()">Click me</button>

On Js Bin all is ok http://jsbin.com/uwutut/1/edit
On Js fiddle the alert is not triggered!! http://jsfiddle.net/vincentieo/D2dxA/
It is the exact same code...copy and paste so no reason why js fiddle is being fussy??

A: The jsfiddle infrastructure puts your code in an event handler for the "load" event if you don't tell it not to. That means that your function is a local function to that handler, so it's not visible globally.
On the left side of the jsfiddle UI, look for a pull-down about where the code goes, and choose "no-wrap (body)".  See if that helps.

A: it works perfectly if you move your javascript to your header
http://jsfiddle.net/D2dxA/2/
<head>
<script>
function message(){
  alert("message");
}
</script>
</head>

In the world of business, you can never be too prepared for unforeseen disasters which can set your IT systems back, and consequently your ability to do business as well. Classically, business continuity disaster recovery (BCDR) was laborious, complex, and even unreliable. With virtualization like cloud backup and other IT solutions that make your business virtually disaster-proof, you can do business with the peace of mind that should things like the Fort McMurray fires, Winnipeg floods, or Quebec train wreck occur–you will still be online, data-prepared, and ready to go.
If you are the owner of a small-to-medium sized business, you are especially vulnerable to these little unforeseen hiccups that occur from time to time. We don't like to think about it, and just plod ahead with our workday tasks, but somewhere out there on the future horizon lie events beyond our control which threaten our very livelihood. This is why your IT backup solutions forbusiness continuity disaster recovery is so key to your operations and success. Imagine if you were doing business in Fort McMurray and didn't have IT backup for BCDR, and you had to flee with just the clothes on your back, and your office burned to the ground. If you had cloud backup of data and a full BCDR planning, you could just make the insurance claim on property loss, re-open your office in another location, and begin doing business again within weeks. In fact, full IT backup solutions for BCDR islike an insurance policy for your intellectual property–and one that doesn't fail you when tough times hit.
Indeed, having full business continuity data recovery readiness and planning in place is like having spare tires in the trunk and extra five-gallon gas containers when your car blows a tire and/or runs out of gas way out in the Outback. You want to have that extra guarantee and peace of mind, and not fly in the face of potential disaster when you are trying to keep a good head for business on your shoulders and a livelihood going. It's not just good for business, it's good for your SME staff and corporate culture for them to know that should something like the Fort McMurray fires strike, their livelihoods, too, will be ensured.
If you own a small business in Lethbridge and are heading into 2016 vulnerable to data loss (natural disaster or no disaster), you may want to reconsider your approach to doing business in a decade when "New technologies and business philosophies are driving revenues in the modern business landscape". You don't want a 404 screen to pop up for a newly-signed client, or have to call a client and make the same speech twice because your CRM platform has no entity management. And, you don't want sales and staff morale to plummet due to these snafus caused by regular business continuity errors. Whether planning for disaster or just keeping the wheels on your venture rolling–business continuity disaster recovery just makes good sense. Delphi Systems is the trusted choice when it comes to staying ahead of the latest information technology tips, tricks, and news.

Q: Why doesn't program calculate the interest? public class Interest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int n;          // number of years
        double rate;    // annual rate

        for (int r = 5; r<=10; r++ ) {
            System.out.println("\nInterest rate is  " + r + "%");
            System.out.println("**********************");
            System.out.println("Year\tAmount on deposit");

            for (n=1; n<=10; n++) {
                int p = 1000; // original amount
                rate = r / 100;
                double a = p * (Math.pow(1 + rate, n)); // amount on deposit at the end of year
                System.out.printf("\n%d\t%.2f", n, a);
             }
         }
    }

}

It's showing the chart correctly in terms of years. But amount on deposit at the end of year (a) stays the same (1000).It looks like this;
Interest rate is  5%
**********************
Year    Amount on deposit

1         1000.00
2         1000.00
3         1000.00
4         1000.00
5         1000.00
6         1000.00
7         1000.00
8         1000.00
9         1000.00
10        1000.00

and it goes until rate reaches 10%.

A: You're performing integer division.
Try : rate = r/100.0;

A: Comment- When you divide two integers in java, the result is another integer (rounded down). Try using a double instead in your division.

The Walking Dead Telltale Series
The Walking Dead Star Warns Siddiq Could Be a Danger to Everyone Else
By Cameron Bonomolo - October 24, 2019 08:56 pm EDT
Alexandria's trusted doctor could pose a threat to the community's spooked survivors, warns The Walking Dead star Avi Nash. Traumatized by an encounter with Alpha (Samantha Morton) and the Whisperers that left ten dead, including friends Enid (Katelyn Nacon) and Tara (Alanna Masterson), Siddiq's easily-triggered PTSD is impacting his care of the community. When the sight of sharp medical equipment sparked a disturbing flashback and a panic attack while caring for a wounded Carol (Melissa McBride) in "Ghosts," Siddiq was forced to step away, leaving Dante (Juan Javier Cardenas) to finish the job. What happens when a caregiver needs taking care of?
"I think what it does is muddy the waters for him. That's why he doesn't want to let anyone know what he's dealing with," Nash told the AMC Blog. "I think he believes that if he can throw himself into his work and be of use to the community, maybe his demons will go away. He's starting to find out that it's not that simple. Alpha's f—cked him up so badly that he might even be a danger to everyone else. There's that moment in the episode where he's not able to perform the surgery and he lets Dante take over in that moment, but it really bothers him."
Siddiq also worries his panic attacks could endanger Coco, the baby girl he shares with Rosita (Christian Serratos).
"We've gotten to a point where we're not just surviving anymore. We're thriving – and a baby is a perfect representation of that. We feel confident enough to bring in new life into this world. Coco is his future and Coco is not just his child – she's also the child of that community," Nash said. "Judith is like his little sister. RJ is like his son. These communities raise these children together. They are the future, but when you add his mental state into that, Coco is also his nightmare. Somebody once told me that when you have a child, it's the first time when your heart exists outside of yourself. You don't just care about yourself anymore. He wants to be a great father to Coco, but he's scared. What if he has a flashback while he's with Coco? What if he harms his child? What if Alpha comes back?"
As the Whisperers further encroach on the survivors, there's a growing sense of paranoia close to boiling over into a fight that may be unavoidable. Where does Siddiq stand in the war against the Whisperers?
"He's really torn. He has a responsibility, alongside Dante, to be ready to take care of the wounded. He has a responsibility, alongside Rosita and Gabriel and Eugene, to take care of his child," Nash said. "And he also has a responsibility to himself, and to those that were killed in the barn, to put Alpha's head on a stake. He's torn between those three things. He's happy to be out there in the trenches and killing those walkers and to not be the doctor, but he's torn because that's what he promised Rick and Carl. A doctor gives hope and mercy, but he wants to give wrath. He's pulled in these directions all season long."
There could be a darker reason why Siddiq is slow to speak about his mental troubles: we suspect he might have been forced to participate in the Whisperer murders that ended with the victims' decapitated heads displayed on spikes.
New episodes of The Walking Dead Season 10 premiere Sundays at 9/8c on AMC. For more TWD intel, follow the author @CameronBonomolo on Twitter.

I am not saying something new when referring to tabloids as offensive to logical minds. But recently another magazine has joined the crowd of mind-boggling, hair-raising and nausea-inducing "news" magazines: Vanity Fair. Calling Maureen Orth's recent Vanity Fair story about the Church of Scientology a "piece of trash" is actually an understatement. Even trash is more useful than Orth's delusional rendition of the truth. The amount of unverified and misrepresented data in this article hits a new low in current journalism. And it is not a surprise to find out that it was completely based on the usual anti-Scientologist crowd a la Rathbun and Headley. Not one person presented in the story was actually talked to. Headley, who just lost a second time in court against the Church and is notorious for changing his story as it suits him, is the grand "source" for Mrs. Orth. This journalist is a lost cause.
To save Vanity Fair, write to its editor at letters@vf.com . There might be some hope that they come to their senses. But we have to tell them about the erosion of quality that is happening right under their eyes.
ARTICLE OF THE MONTH: WHAT IS NARCONON?
Global drug abuse has led to what can inarguably be described as a world awash in blood and human misery.
In reply stands Narconon (meaning "no drugs"), the drug rehabilitation and prevention program founded in 1966 and based on the discoveries of L. Ron Hubbard.
The Narconon program not only addresses the mental and physical debilitation precipitated by drug abuse, but also the reasons why an individual turns to drugs in the first place.
As a result, the Narconon success rate is not merely the world's highest, it is four times better than international averages.
But with drug abuse now ruining 200 million lives worldwide, the battle to eradicate abuse must also include prevention. To that end, Narconon graduates and volunteers conduct one of the most effective drug awareness programs on Earth. To date, it has provided more than 17 million young people with the facts about drug abuse.
Scientologists helped sponsor the creation of Narconon Arrowhead. Established in 2001, this is the premier facility of the Narconon network. It stands amidst 216 acres of woodland on the shores of Lake Eufaula in southeastern Oklahoma. In addition to being the world's largest residential facility of its kind, Narconon Arrowhead also serves as the international training center for drug rehabilitation specialists. Since opening its doors, it has provided on-site internships for professionals from 13 nations and 43 US states.
Today, the worldwide Narconon drug rehabilitation and prevention network comprises more than 180 centers and groups across 47 nations—double the number of a decade ago.
L. Ron Hubbard, who developed the drug rehabilitation methodology which the Narconon Program utilizes, was also the founder of the Scientology religion. While the Narconon program is a purely secular program which is open to members of all faiths, it has enjoyed the support of the Church of Scientology and individual Scientologists since its beginnings.
In 1966, when Arizona State Prison inmate William Benitez wrote L. Ron Hubbard asking for help, it was Scientologist volunteers who helped him to set up the original Narconon courses inside the prison.
In fact, the majority of new Narconon facilities established since that time have been made possible by the volunteer and financial support given by Scientologists.
It is an important part of the Scientology religion's social mission to reduce the suffering and degradation caused by alcohol and drug abuse on a worldwide scope. Scientology churches join churches of other faiths in seeking to improve living conditions as well as the social and moral environments in which we live. As part of this mission, Churches of Scientology actively encourage their members to support the Narconon program, by helping to open new centers for drug rehabilitation or drug education and by volunteering their time to assist existing Narconon programs.
Therefore, it is common to find Scientologists from all walks of life volunteering to help the Narconon organization by conducting fundraising drives, establishing new centers and making its solutions known to people in need.
The Narconon program brings new solutions to the field of drug rehabilitation and education to all peoples of the world. Scientology Churches and Scientologists are proud to support this program.
Is Narconon a Scientology Front Group?
Is Narconon a Medical Program?
I just updated ScientologyMyths.info with some new information about Narconon. Check it out!
Here are some interesting facts about the recent (August 2012) allegations against a Narconon facility in Canadian (Oklahoma), Narconon Arrowhead. It is from various letters to the media that were posted on media websites (e.g. Tampa Bay Times). All of the letters were sent by the Church of Scientology International.
Bottom Line: The current media attention on Narconon is generated by the same group of anti-Scientologists and their hangers. One of them is David Love, who I think is an agent provocateur.
While we find the posting offensive, we also disagree with his characterization as a reporter of any metal would investigate sources who are vehemtly opposed to natural, legal, law abiding and well accepted practices of drug rehabilitation and discover how and why he must support drug proliferation.
leaving the program in Canada in October 2009. He has never been to Narconon Oklahoma and has no knowledge about it. He has bragged that he stole thousands of confidential documents from Narconon in Quebec. He has suggested in writing to counsel for Narconon that he is willing to cease his prodding of "numerous government and private investigations" into Narconon in exchange for payment.
Love's recent correspondence to counsel strongly suggests that Love's motives are not pure and that there is a financial gain to his using the Times to generate negative media about Narconon. It should be evident to any impartial media source that David Love has an agenda which goes well beyond contributing to improving drug rehabilitation in America.
The evidence of his convictions are public record. Do your homework before you publish his lies. His daughter arranged for Love to be brought to Narconon Trois Rivieres in Canada.
On 24 July 2012 Marc and Claire Headley (whoismarcheadley.com) lost their appeal in a "forced labor" case against the Church of Scientology.
– The Sea Organization is a religious order, participation in it is voluntary and those who want to leave can do so easily.
– Nothing and nobody forced the Headley's to join, participate and stay in the Sea Organization. To the contrary, the Headley's testified under oath that they enjoyed it and wanted to be there.
– The Headleys could have left whenever they wanted to but did not.
But they first chose to stay and then – as the last of numerous violations of agreed-upon moral codes – took a hike instead of leaving like anyone else would.
"Sea Org members learn that strict discipline is central to preserving the integrity of Scientology's ministry. If a member fails to meet Scientology's ethical standards, he may be disciplined with verbal warnings or rebukes, loss of privileges, removal from a post, diminution of responsibilities, manual labor, or expulsion. Sea Org members also participate in religious training and practices, including "confessionals." In a confessional, a member confesses transgressions and may then be absolved or disciplined.
What, no Suppressive Person declare for those leaving the Sea Org? Exactly. Luckily the court cleared that up too. And what about the people that "blow"?
Obviously. If a friend of yours goes missing you would go looking for her too, right?
And in the end this turned out to be one of those sad "apostate" stories: The Headley's enjoyed their stay and work in the Sea Organization and only after they had repeatedly betrayed and lied to their former friends they found something "wrong" about it.

Silent birth is all about providing the best possible environment for the birthing mother and her new baby. Its origins can be found in L. Ron Hubbard's Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health and are firmly rooted in a fundamental and abiding principle that women, particularly expectant mothers, be given the utmost in care and respect.
A silent birth is labor and delivery done in a calm and loving environment and with no spoken words by anyone attending. Chatty doctors and nurses, shouts to "PUSH, PUSH" and loud or laughing remarks to "encourage" are the types of things that are meant to be avoided.
The point of silent birth is NO WORDS. It does not mean a mother cannot make any sound during childbirth. It is doubtful that any woman could give birth without making any noise at all.
The principle behind not speaking during childbirth is delineated in Dianetics and to fully understand why, one should read the book Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health. But to provide a brief explanation, L. Ron Hubbard discovered the hidden source of nightmares, unreasonable fears, upsets, insecurity and psychosomatic illness—the reactive mind. This part of the mind records all perceptions during times of pain and unconsciousness—which childbirth is for both mother and child. And words, in particular, spoken during these moments, can have an adverse effect on one later in life.
Mothers naturally want to give their baby the best start in life and thus keep the birth as quiet and peaceful as possible. That being said, a woman's choice for her delivery is completely up to her and her doctor. There is no requirement to adhere to any specific routine. Just like care is taken in all other aspects of labor and birth, a woman and her doctor or midwife and any others present work out how to communicate without words.
Doctors respect the right of a mother to choose her birthing experience. Silent birth is not a medical model but a religious and philosophical approach based on L. Ron Hubbard's research into the mind and spirit.
However, since the research, findings and practice of silent birth were first announced by Mr. Hubbard in the 1951 text entitled Child Dianetics, this method has been corroborated and applied by doctors, nurses and midwives world over.
The Church has no policy against the use of medicines to help a person with a physical situation and these principles do not preclude a mother from receiving any medical procedure needed to safely deliver the baby, including Caesarean section. These are medical decisions and these, too, are between the mother and her doctor.

/slash film festival is Austria's largest event dedicated to Fantastic Cinema. It was founded in 2010 by Verein zur Förderung des Fantastischen Films in close collaboration with Filmcasino, which also serves as the main venue and general hub of the festival. /slash quickly grew in size and scope, attracting close to 10.000 visitors annually over its 11-day run.
Right from its inception, the /slash film festival was more than just a place to watch movies. The young creative team, led by film critic and curator Markus Keuschnigg, transfers the universe of Fantastic Film from the screen into the real world: meticulous location design, hand-picked special events, provocative performances as well as the cherished guests of the festival ensure that each and every festival edition is its own beast, a fabulous concoction of All Things Fantastique, on-screen as well as off-screen.
Each year's program is comprised of 40+ Austrian premieres of international highlights from the field of Fantastic Film, ranging from crowd-pleasers to hot docs, from fiercely independent films to heritage revivals.
Apart from the main edition, the /slash team also organizes the 3-day-long /slash ½-festival – in collaboration with Crossing Europe film festival – in spring as well as a X-mas special with outrageous movie premieres destined to put you in a festive mood of a different kind.

Nope! Gotta pay the toll.
I, too, haven't opened up my Silent Hope just yet! I'm still holding out hope that another Slimeknights might pop up again someday.
I mean... last time SK opened up it was for DQVIII which was for the PS2, right? Maybe SE will try it again for DQXI! Goodness knows we have more DQ games coming out in the west in the next few years then we've had in a while!
I accidentally gave mine away...I even had a few extra from someone else. Quite the loss for me.
As long as whomever you gave it to doesn't open it, it should be fine.
Totally just spotted my envelope through a clear box while unpacking today. Glad it made it to the new house!
What exactly did slime knights do?
It was a PR website for Dragon Quest in the United States. They held contests that awarded points. Points could be traded in for real things. I was in the top 10 during the initial run through DQVIII and got a free Slime controller and a free DQVIII t-shirt. I'd win another free t-shirt off a contest eventually.
It promoted DQVIII, Rocket Slime, and Joker (I think it lasted until Joker).
There was a message board like here and there was a live chat at some point.
You're pretty much on the money for what it was. They gave out points for posting your purchase with a receipt as well. I got a few posters and won a shirt off a pop-quiz in the chat, but I never really got much more than that because all the good stuff got bought up pretty quickly. There was a news letter that came out weekly I think for events, contests and the like.
Mine is still sealed. I should go find it in storage.
I wish I had gotten one of those.
I have mine, and it's still sealed too. I've thought about opening it, but I'm going to wait. I'd hate to disappoint King Slime if the Slime Knight is ever revived.
You and me both, Cain! I recently grabbed mine out of storage and put it in a cardboard treasure chest. Knights can't go disappointing the king!
Mine's still sealed. I cannot even see what card it is when checking against the light.
But no matter how much I really want to open it, I want to hold on for that special moment (which, alas, may never arrive) when opening it will be right.
Ditto. And I have tried!
Didn't even know this thread was here! but I'm bumping it.
Mine is still sealed too. Have moved twice, but it's still safe in my drawer. glad i found this thread (thanks plattym3) so I can prove to my wife that I really do have to keep it sealed!
Don't open that mail of your husband's. It's very important that it stay sealed and contain the memories of a very special time and place.

Cut, however, allowed a vaccination requirement for healthcare workers to take effect nationwide | Photo: EFE/EPA/MICHAEL REYNOLDS
The United States Supreme Court overturned this Thursday () a rule by President Joe Biden's administration for companies with more than 100 employees to require employees to be vaccinated against Covid-12 or to present a weekly test negative for coronavirus infection.
The rule would enter into force on January 4, but had its validity postponed due to legal dispute. According to CNN, a majority of the Supreme Court held that the US Congress did not give the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), an agency of the US Department of Labor, the power to determine this requirement.
" While Congress has arguably given OSHA the power to regulate occupational hazards, it has not given that agency the power to regulate public health more broadly. Require the vaccination of 84 millions of Americans, selected simply because they work for employers with more than 100 employees, is certainly something that falls into the latter category," the court's opinion noted. On the other hand, the Supreme Court allowed a vaccination requirement for healthcare workers to take effect nationwide.
The federal rule requires immunization of healthcare facility workers and home care providers that are funded by US government healthcare programs. The vaccination cycle was supposed to be completed by January 4, but the measure was suspended injunction on 24 States.

EPA Changes Rules to Allow Pesticide Harmful to Bees

Policy Summary
The EPA is being sued over its approval of the pesticide Sulfoxaflor, a pesticide which has historically been strictly regulated or banned to prevent harm to bees, and has recently been given a series exemptions to be used on plants which bees and other pollinators find attractive. The pesticide, which the EPA's own risk assessment calls "very highly toxic" to bees, is usually only allowed for plants which bees do not naturally pollinate, or during times where the plants are not in bloom and therefore not being visited by bees. The exceptions, granted under special emergency power, give farmers the ability to spray the pesticide in ways more likely to harm bees and native pollinators.
The EPA is charged with the approval of pesticides, and is therefore required to make adequate risk assessments on the toxicity to both humans, non-target plants, and animals. This is not the first time in the past year the EPA has come under fire for its regulation of pesticides, with the EPA's Office of the Inspector General publishing a report charging that the procedures in place for approval of pesticides were inadequate for assessing their risks. This particular pesticide approval has reportedly caused strong backlash among advocates for bee and pollinator health.
The pesticide Sulfoxaflor was embroiled in court challenges from beekeepers and advocates which ultimately lead to its banning shortly before being reintroduced with stricter regulation in 2016. The new exemption comes at a time where the Trump administration is rolling back efforts to collect data on the health of the nation's key pollinators, and in a year where bee populations have faced some of their harshest declines.
The Trump administration has a long history of rolling back environmental regulation, most notably in the energy sector. Pesticides, are at the intersection of several important interests: public health, the agricultural industry, and environmental protection.
Bees are well known to be the single most vital species to many ecosystems of pollinated plants, and the systematic use of industrial farming techniques including pesticides is linked to the decimation of bees around the world. Meanwhile, pesticides and herbicides have caused some of the most grim ecological and human tragedies of the past century, and yet they have been absolutely pivotal in increasing crop yields and reducing insect borne diseases. At the heart of both of these issues is the effect on agriculture through the sometimes-competing needs of safety, productivity, and low-costs in farming.
In dealing with these competing interests, the Trump administration does not seem to take a strategic or long-term view in terms of agricultural policy. Food security is not the top priority of the administration, as the sustained impact of the trade war, and subsequent aid, on farmers and farming communities has shown. Nevertheless, it is in the language of food security and agricultural success that these pesticide policies are justified, even when they have sounded alarm bells for the long-term sustainability of the United States agricultural system.
The most convincing analysis of this deregulatory trend in the agricultural industry is that it has the same animating philosophy as the deregulation of the coal industry — the disavowal of responsibility for the climate crisis and a neoliberal animus towards regulation as the dampener of economic progress. This policy trend within the EPA fails to either strengthen food supply in the long term, or to increase the ecological and human wellbeing of the country, and therefor it fails to live up to any rhetoric except that of blanket deregulation.
