Vote caging, as commonly known, is a voter suppression tactic. The term is derived from a direct mail term. In the direct mail industry, when a third party runs a direct mailing campaign on behalf of a client organization, one of the activities undertaken is to compile all of the responses, handle contributions and to deposit received funds into the client's account, and also update the database of names and addresses that were mailed to with the responses or corrected addresses obtained. Since some of the activities were controlled carefully (donations and deposits) and conducted in a manner similar to the activities within a "teller's cage," the process is called "caging" and the end result of the data entry updates and address corrections is called a "caging list." This led to the term "voter caging" for voter registration analysis and challenges conducted via mass mailings.
Caging, as Rep. Chris Cannon (R-UT) "helpfully pointed out, 'is a term of art in mailhouses' – it refers to the place where letters go when they have no address, all batched up in a separate room."[1]
As House Committee on the Judiciary chair John Conyers (D-MI) added, caging "in the context of elections 'is not an issue of the mail at all.' Voter caging, in the context of elections, means blocking voters out – choosing whole lists of voters whose vote will be challenged, chosen by whom and the criteria for challenge enunciated by whom, under this [the Bush] administration, still not fully explained."[2]

How vote caging works
In vote caging, letters marked "Do Not Forward" are sent to selected voters. If letters are returned it is assumed that the voter no longer lives at the address, and the voter is either removed from the voting rolls, or is challenged if the voter arrives at a polling place on election day.
Flaws in vote caging
On the surface it may seem that a letter marked "Do No Forward" that is returned indicated that the intended recipient has moved from that location there are many alternate reasons that the letter could be returned. A person being treated for a long period in a hospital might, for example, ask that mail be forwarded until the person recovers. People going to another area for an extended vacation also might request that their mail be forwarded. In addition, the system depends on a 100% accuracy rate in mail delivery, which is especially unlikely in under-served or poor neighborhoods.
Legality of vote caging
In 1981, the Republican State Committee New Jersey and the Republican National Committee sent a mailing targeting primarily African-American and Latino neighborhoods.[3] A lawsuit was filed, DNC v. RNC, and as part of a 1982 settlement in the case the Republican National Committee admitted wrongdoing and agreed to:
"...refrain from undertaking any ballot security activities in polling places or election districts where the racial or ethnic composition of such districts is a factor in the decision to conduct, or the actual conduct of, such activities there and where a purpose or significant effect of such activities is to deter qualified voters from voting."
The settlement was legally binding and applicable nationwide. Unfortunately, this method of voter suppression did not stop, and the 1982 consent decree has formed the legal basis for multiple challenges over the years. Some examples include:
In 1986, the Louisiana Republican Party instituted a "ballot integrity program", which targeted parishes that supported Walter Mondale in 1984. After Democratic leaders in the state filed a $10 million lawsuit, a federal judge released an internal RNC memorandum which stated:
"I would guess that this program will eliminate at least 60-80,000 folks from the rolls," Kris Wolfe, a Middle Western regional director for the Republican National Committee, wrote. "If it's a close race, which I'm assuming it is, this could keep the black vote down considerably."[4]
In 1990, another consent decree was issued after the Republican Party of North Carolina and the re-election campaign of GOP Sen. Jesse Helms sent 125,000 postcards to mostly African American voters to compile a list of voters to challenge.
In 2004, the Ohio Republican party sent out a mailer to newly-registered voters and used the results to create a challenge list. After several voters filed suit, the judge in the original DNC v. RNC case, Judge Dickinson R. Debevoise, ruled on Nov. 1, 2004 that the state GOP had violated the original injunction, and issued a court order banning the use of the challenge list. This decision was upheld on appeal; however, in the early hours of Nov. 2 -- election day -- the Third District Court issued a stay of Judge Debevoise's court order, allowing Republican challengers into the polls. [5]
Caging in the 2008 election
There are numerous reports of vote caging during the 2008 election cycle.
Florida: Possibly due to high foreclosure rates and poor economic climate in southwest Florida, even the traditionally Republican[6] Collier and Lee counties were targeted by voter caging[7] the weekend of September 6th, 2008. Letters from the John McCain campaign[8] in envelopes marked "Do Not Forward" were mailed to voters registered either as Democrats, independent, or unaffiliated [9] throughout the area. The events prompted an extended discussion of voter suppression techniques on public radio Sound off with Sasha program on September 12, 2008 [6]and an editorial from the Naples Daily News on September 22, 2008[10] that heightened awareness of the problem in the electorate.
Ohio: In Ohio Project Vote warns that "significant numbers of minority voters will be included on the county-generated caging lists" if voters are removed without a hearing after the state mailed letters marked "Do not forward" and over 500,000 were returned as undeliverable[11].
Michigan: A Republican plan to cage voters foreclosed from their homes[12] was blocked[13] before it could keep people from voting. As part of a settlement of a lawsuit seeking to prevent the use of foreclosure lists to challenge voters, the Republican party agreed that the appearance of an address on a foreclosure list does not constitute grounds for removal of voters from that address from registration rolls. From a statement by the Michigan Democratic Party[14],"The settlement acknowledges the existence of an illegal scheme by the Republicans to use mortgage foreclosure lists to deny foreclosure victims their right to vote." The Justice Department said it would "monitor closely" the caging reports.[15]
Montana: In Montana Project Vote issued a statement blasting vote caging of at least 6,000 residents based only on their filing change-of-address statements with the Post Office[16]
In 2004, BBC reporter Greg Palast reported:
Two e-mails, prepared for the executive director of the Bush campaign in Florida and the campaign's national research director in Washington DC, contain a 15-page so-called "caging list".
It lists 1,886 names and addresses of voters in predominantly black and traditionally Democrat areas of Jacksonville, Florida. An elections supervisor in Tallahassee, when shown the list, told Newsnight: "The only possible reason why they would keep such a thing is to challenge voters on election day." ...
When asked by Newsnight for an explanation of the list, Republican spokespersons claim the list merely records returned mail from either fundraising solicitations or returned letters sent to newly registered voters to verify their addresses for purposes of mailing campaign literature. Republican state campaign spokeswoman Mindy Tucker Fletcher stated the list was not put together "in order to create" a challenge list, but refused to say it would not be used in that manner. Rather, she did acknowledge that the party's poll workers will be instructed to challenge voters, "Where it's stated in the law." There was no explanation as to why such clerical matters would be sent to top officials of the Bush campaign in Florida and Washington. Rather, she did acknowledge that the party's poll workers will be instructed to challenge voters, "Where it's stated in the law."[17]
Palast also reported that:
A confidential campaign directed by GOP party chiefs in October 2004 sought to challenge the ballots of tens of thousands of voters in the last presidential election, virtually all of them cast by residents of Black-majority precincts. Files from the secret vote-blocking campaign were obtained by BBC Television Newsnight, London. They were attached to emails accidentally sent by Republican operatives to a non-party website.
One group of voters wrongly identified by the Republicans as registering to vote from false addresses: servicemen and women sent overseas. Here's how the scheme worked: The RNC mailed these voters letters in envelopes marked, "Do not forward", to be returned to the sender. These letters were mailed to servicemen and women, some stationed overseas, to their US home addresses. The letters then returned to the Bush-Cheney campaign as "undeliverable." The lists of soldiers of "undeliverable" letters were transmitted from state headquarters, in this case Florida, to the RNC in Washington. The party could then challenge the voters' registration and thereby prevent their absentee ballots being counted.
One target list was comprised exclusively of voters registered at the Jacksonville, Florida, Naval Air Station. Jacksonville is third largest naval installation in the US, best known as home of the Blue Angels fighting squandron.[18]
Tim Griffin, a former Karl Rove protégé, Republican political strategist and top adviser to President George W. Bush, was "formerly research director of the Republican National Committee. The 2004 BBC News report showed that Griffin led a 'caging' scheme[19] to suppress the votes of African-American servicemembers in Florida."[20]
The LA Times reported that "African-American leaders denounced the caging scheme as 'another 'shameful' Republican effort to keep blacks from voting.'"[21]

Neican: historical nihilism, patriarchy and misogyny, and Chinese-Australians in the public service
Yun Jiang Adam Ni 20 April 2021 CCP, Culture & Society, Diaspora, History, Neican
1. Party history
The CCP's Party History Learning and Education (党史学习教育) campaign, kicked off in February, is now in full swing. The case of CCP history serves as another poignant reminder of the importance of history in understanding contemporary China.
Propagandising and popularising Party history is more about finding a path into the future than about excavating facts about the past. The CCP's official historiography is a product of politics and serves a political agenda.
In the case of the current campaign, it aims to strengthen ideological cohesion, confidence, and a sense of historical destiny. In doing so, it will likely reinforce the legitimacy of Xi as the Party's helmsman and his political project of "national rejuvenation".
In his speech kicking off the campaign, Xi outlined the importance of Party history learning and education for the future of China (and the CCP). Essentially, Xi views human history as a linear, unidirectional process characterised by progress. The laws of historical development, to Xi, foreshadows China's final triumph under the CCP. As the locomotive of Chinese history, the Party is driving it towards its end point, which for Xi is the "great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation".
We could call this sense of historical inevitability by its other name: hubris. As any good (or even passable) student of history should know, history is not linear nor inevitable. The tumultuous history of modern China is a testament to the fragility of the human condition against greater forces.
2. Historical nihilism
In order to make sure your version of history dominates, it's not enough to "educate". You should also try to demolish competing versions of history, and preferably destroy the standing of their advocates. Enter "historical nihilism" (历史虚无主义)…
This year is the 100th anniversary of the CCP's founding. The Party-state's propaganda apparatus and the Party history campaign are both glorifying its achievements. The other side of the coin is that the Party has begun cracking down on so-called "historical nihilism", that is, views on history that the Party deem harmful. The rationale is quite simple, and in Xi's words:
It is often the case that hostile forces at home and abroad make use of the history of the Chinese revolution and the history of the new China, doing their utmost to attack, vilify and smear them, with the fundamental aim of…inciting the overthrow of the leadership of the Communist Party of China and our socialist system.
Earlier this month, the Cyberspace Administration of China opened a hotline for the public to report cases of "historical nihilism". Four categories of activities are being targeted:
distorting the "four histories" (CCP, "New China", reform and opening up, and development of socialism);
attacking the leadership, guiding ideology and policies of the Party;
denigrating heroes and martyrs
denying the excellence of Chinese traditional culture, revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture.
In theory, any critique or dissent would fall within the scope. In practice, the Party will only punish a few individuals to send a warning.
This is a renewed attack on intellectual pluralism. For Xi, pluralism weakens ideological cohesion, and provides opportunities for hostile ideas to "infect" the Chinese people. But can a society really flourish if the space for pluralism is denied by the state?
3. Censorship, patriarchy and misogyny
Misogyny is rife in many parts of English-speaking social media. And unsurprisingly, it is also everywhere on Chinese social media.
How do Chinese social media deal with the problem? Well, they don't. Instead, misogynistic voices are elevated. Meanwhile, their targets, feminist accounts, are censored.
Many misogynist accounts on Chinese social media such as Weibo, are also ultra-nationalist. This bears some similarities to the "incels" on English-speaking social media, a subculture defined by a mixture of misogyny and white supremacy. On Chinese social media, nationalistic and sexist (mostly) men troll, harass, and dox feminist activists, accusing them of being "disloyal to China" because of their feminist ideas.
Social media platforms favour public conflicts and arguments. These conflicts drive engagement and clicks that lead to more profit for the social media companies. These companies can choose to stop harassment if they face enough pressure from the public or from the government.
Yet in a surprising twist, Weibo and Douban have banned the accounts of a number of Chinese feminist activists, while leaving the accounts of misogynists untouched. It's unclear whether it's due to popular pressure or government directives, or both. Douban told the banned groups that their views on heterosexual sex, marriage, and child-rearing, "contained extremism, radical politics, and ideologies". Weibo has also banned prominent feminist accounts.
It is instructive that rejecting marriage and child-rearing is seen as "extremist" ideas, while persistent misogyny is not. We have noted previously that the Chinese Government's policy direction is moving towards more "pro-birth" and away from "family planning". As part of that, the Government is also emphasising "traditional family values".
Rejecting certain heterosexual notions of marriage and child-rearing are now increasingly being viewed as a direct challenge to state policy. The Chinese government does not only want to influence what you think, it also wants to have a say in what you do with your uterus.
4. Chinese-Australians in the Australian Public Service
Australia has a large, diverse and growing population of Chinese-Australians, but the public service is failing to take advantage of this. Better harnessing their skills and knowledge would benefit Australia's public policy-making.
In a report for the Lowy Institute, I (Yun) argue that:
As tensions escalate between Australia and China, Australia needs China-capable public servants in policy roles more than ever.
There is a dire lack of policy expertise on China in the Australian Public Service and few signs that this is improving.
China capability is found mostly among the Chinese-Australian communities. Yet Chinese-Australians are significantly under-represented in the public service. This is not simply a problem of workplace composition lagging demographic changes.
Despite the urgent demand for Chinese language and cultural skills, the existing skills of many public servants are being overlooked or not used at all.
Chinese-Australians in the public service face many barriers preventing them from reaching full potential. I identified four of these:
Recruitment practices;
Security clearances;
Management preconceptions that hinder Chinese-Australians from working on China-related roles, which contributes to a mismatch of expertise and roles; and
Promotion systems that value "generic" public policy skills rather than "specialised" knowledge, including country expertise.
On management preconceptions, I think:
When Chinese-Australians with deep knowledge of China are recruited to the public service, management preconceptions may hinder their placement in China-related roles. There is a tendency to perceive their ethnic and cultural background as an impediment or "conflict of interest" to work on issues related to China, even after they have successfully completed the exhaustive security clearance process.
The result is that government departments may spend substantial resources training public servants to speak a Chinese language and improve their expertise on Chinese society and culture, while those with existing Chinese language skills, knowledge and experience are side-lined.

Q: How to speed up this Regular Expression in .Replace function? I have 4.5 million rows to process, so I need to speed this up so bad.
I don't understand how regex works pretty well, so other answers are so hard for me to understand.
I have a column that contains IDs, e.g.:

ELI-123456789

This numeric part of this ID is contained in this string in a columnm bk_name started with a "@":

AAAAA@123456789_BBBBB;CCCCC;

Now my goal is to change that string into this string, throw the ID at the end, started with a "#", save it in new_name:

AAAAA_BBBBB;CCCCC;#123456789

Here's what I tried:

*

*Take the ID and replace "ELI-" with "@", save as ID2:

df["ID2"] = df["ID"].str.replace("ELI-", "@")

*Find ID2 in the string of bk_name and replace it with "":

df["new_name"] = df["bk_name"].replace(regex = r'(?i)' + df["ID2"].astype(str), value = "")

*Take the ID again, replace "ELI-" with "#", add it at the end of the string of new_name:

df["new_name"] = df["new_name"] + df["ID"].str.replace("ELI-", "#")
Now the problem is that step 2 is the line that takes most of the time, it took 6.5 second to process 6700 rows.
But now I have 4.6 millions rows to process, it's been 7 hours and it's still running and I have no idea why.
In my opinions, regex slows down my code. But I have no deeper understanding.
So thanks for your help in advance, any suggestions would be appreciated :)

A: Well, I would say that if you know that the ID part is always ELI- followed by a number and that this number is always behind the @ at the beginning then I would consider not reading the ID at step 1. Directly work at step 2 with this regular expression and replacement:
https://regex101.com/r/QBQB7E/1
You should be able to create the content of your new field just with one single assignement with the result of the substitution of the old field. The idea to
speed up things is to avoid having 4-5 lines of code to do the operation of
getting the id, searching it and then recomposing the result. The regular
expression and the substitution pattern can do all that in one single operation.
You can generate some Python code directly from Regex101 so that you can integrate it to create your new_name field's content.
Explanation
^(.*?)@(\d+)(.*)$ is the regular expression

*

*^ means "starting with".

*$ means "ending with".

*() is to capture a group and create a variable that we can then use
in the replacement pattern. \1 for the first matching group, \2 for
the second, etc.

*.*? matches any character between zero and unlimited times, as few times
as possible, expanding as needed (lazy).

*@ matches the character @ literally (case sensitive).

*\d+ matches a digit (equal to [0-9]) one or more times.

*.* matches any character between zero and unlimited times, as many times as possible, giving back as needed (greedy).

The replacement string is \1\3#\2, so it takes the first matching group
followed by the last one and then adds a # followed by the second matching
group, which is your id.
In terms of speed of the regex itself, it could also be changed a little bit
to find a faster version of it, depending how it's written.
Second version:

*

*^([^@]+)@(\d+)(.*)$ where I replaced .*? by [^@]+ meaning find any
character which is not @ one or more times.

*Solution here: https://regex101.com/r/QBQB7E/3
Tested the code and I got it in about 4 seconds...
import timeit

code_to_test = """
import re

regex = r"^([^@]+)@(\d+)(.*)$"
subst = "\\1\\3#\\2"

df = {
    "ID": "ELI-123456789",
    "bk_name": "AAAAA@123456789_BBBBB;CCCCC;"
}

df["new_name"] = re.sub(regex, subst, df["bk_name"])
"""

elapsed_time = timeit.timeit(code_to_test, number=4600000)
print(elapsed_time)

I really think that if you code runs in 7 hours, it's probably somewhere else
where the problem is. The regex engine doesn't seem much slower than doing
manual search/replace operations.

A: So, your approach wasn't that bad.
I recommend you look into the functions docs before using them. replace takes no keyword arguments.
Regarding step 2, don't use a regex just for replacing a string with another string ("" in this case).
df = {};
df['ID'] = 'ELI-123456789'; df['bk_name'] = 'AAAAA@123456789_BBBBB;CCCCC;';
print(df)

# Take the ID and replace "ELI-" with "@", save as ID2:

# df["ID2"] = df["ID"].str.replace("ELI-", "@")
df["ID2"] = df["ID"].replace("ELI-", "@")
print(df)

# Find ID2 in the string of bk_name and replace it with "":

# df["new_name"] = df["bk_name"].replace(regex = r'(?i)' + df["ID2"].astype(str), value = "")
df["new_name"] = df["bk_name"].replace(df["ID2"], "")
print(df)

# Take the ID again, replace "ELI-" with "#", add it at the end of the string of new_name:

# df["new_name"] = df["new_name"] + df["ID"].str.replace("ELI-", "#")
df["new_name"] = df["new_name"] + df["ID"].replace("ELI-", "#")
print(df)

Hope it helps
EDIT:
Are you sure it's this piece of code the one slowing down your project? Have you tried to isolate it and see how long it actually takes to execute?
Try this:
import timeit
code_to_test = """
df = {};
df['ID'] = 'ELI-123456789'; df['bk_name'] = 'AAAAA@123456789_BBBBB;CCCCC;';
df["new_name"] = df['bk_name'].replace('@' + df['ID'][4:],'') + '#' + df['ID'][4:] # <----- ONE LINER
# print(df['new_name'])
"""
elapsed_time = timeit.timeit(code_to_test, number=4600000)
print(elapsed_time)

I shortened it to a one-liner which ONLY WORKS IF:

*

*ELI- (or a 4-character string) is always the string to be replaced

*@ is always the character to be removed and # is always the one to be added

At least in the laptop I'm coding this, it always executes the code 4600000 times in under 4 secs

A: I don't understand what caused the problem but I solved it.
The only thing I changed is in step 2. I used apply/lambda function and it suddenly works and I have no idea why.

*

*Take the ID and replace "ELI-" with "@", save as ID2:

df["ID2"] = df["ID"].str.replace("ELI-", "@")

*Find ID2 in the string of bk_name and replace it with "":

df["new_name"] = df[["bk_name", "ID2"]].astype(str).apply(lambda x: x["bk_name"].replace(x["ID2"], ""), axis=1)

*Take the ID again, replace "ELI-" with "#", add it at the end of the string of new_name:

df["new_name"] = df["new_name"] + df["ID"].str.replace("ELI-", "#")

A bequest left to the Moose Jaw Health Foundation in a will is a popular way of leaving a legacy to improve healthcare. It ensures that medical professionals at the Dr. F.H. Wigmore Regional Hospital have the best equipment they need to provide life saving care now and in the future. Each and every gift, no matter the size, makes a difference. You can also significantly reduce the taxes paid by your estate by including the Moose Jaw Health Foundation in your will.
You may designate your gift to a specific area or piece of equipment within the hospital or to the area of greatest medical equipment need as determined by the Foundation and the Saskatchewan Health Authority.
There are several different types of bequests, so it's a good idea to seek the advice of a legal or financial advisor in helping you determine the most appropriate type of bequest for you.
They will also help you to review your assets and liabilities and prepare a will.
Specific bequest: A gift of a specific sum of money or property such as real estate, securities or other items. Generally, the property will be sold and the proceeds, less appraisals and selling costs, will be applied per the terms of your bequest.
Residual bequest: A gift of all, or a percentage of, what remains of your estate after payment of debts, taxes and other bequests will be made to the Foundation.
Life-tenant bequest: A gift of all or a percentage of your estate to a Life Tenant - a specific person (or people) who will receive income from your estate during their lifetime. Upon that person's death, the Moose Jaw Health Foundation would receive a bequest (a specific amount or a residual amount).
Be sure to notify the Foundation when you are planning to make a bequest. All donors who have included the Foundation in their will, or estate plan, are invited to become members of the Heritage Society. It's our way of recognizing a future gift within a person's lifetime.
Please be sure to have your legal and financial professional use our correct legal name The Moose Jaw Health Foundation Inc. and our charitable number 11982-9173-RR0001.

Introducing Our New Pastors in the South District
by District Office | Jul 24, 2018 | South District Newsletter, South District Webpage
We would like to introduce you to the new faces in the South District and those with a change in appointment. Please join us in prayer for them as they settle into their new appointments.
Rev. Evelyn (Evy) McDonald – St. Mark's UMC, Tucson AZ
Rev. Evy was born in Ogallala, Nebraska. She is a true Nebraska Cornhusker football fan!
Evy's first career was in nursing. She went to the University of Arizona and graduated with a Master degree in Nursing, and then directed intensive care and coronary care. In addition, Evy was the Director of Education at Hillhaven Hospice. Hillhaven opened in Tucson a,long with one in California and one in New Jersey: the first three Hospices in the US. Subsequently, Rev. Evy felt a call to ordained ministry and answered that call by attending Union Theological Seminary in NYC. She served as an Elder in The New York Annual Conference in both village and urban churches. Evy's appointment in the Desert Southwest is a profound joy and she is grateful to be serving here.
Rev. James (Jim) Perdue – San Pedro Valley UMC in Benson AZ; Trinity UMC in Bisbee AZ.
Rev. Jim is married to Neva. They have 4 children in their 40's and 50's, 13 grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren. He is ordained and a retired member of the Iowa Conference. Jim served 28 years as an appointed pastor in the West Virginia and Iowa conferences, as well as 21 years as a missionary with Global Ministries of The United Methodist Church
Born and raised in a southern West Virginia coal town, Jim has a deep love for and understanding of ordinary folk in rural and small-town areas. He paints some landscapes and animals with oils, and he loves jazz, blues, tango, and classical music, as well as "heritage music" – western swing, mountain, handmade music, bluegrass, etc. Since moving to Arizona in 2009, Jim has fallen in love with the desert and with desert folk. He relaxes by enjoying romantic comedies, Brit Box detective shows, and chick-flicks with Neva. He also relaxes by cooking.
Raised in a southern-mountain, fundamentalist background, formally educated to a more liberal, European-style theology, formed over the years to a quantum spirituality, and immersed in Latino culture throughout the Western Hemisphere, gives Jim a unique insight and love for the folk of Cochise County, with whom he now is called and appointed to serve. He next plans to learn and practice Tai Chi Chuan for physical, mental, and spiritual health and harmony.
His ministry passion is for escaping from the spell of the "American sin" of forced polarization. Jim's Facebook Intro reads, "Mountain folk, Argentine, Hispanic by life experience, border folk, husband, family man, artist, and theologian," and his email signature reads "Moving the church from the center the world defines to the center that God defines."
Pastor Stuart Salvatierra – St. Mark's UMC, Tucson AZ
Growing up at St. Francis in the Foothills, Stuart originally hails from the South District and is excited about his return to Tucson and the opportunity to serve St. Mark's UMC. Prior to this appointment Stuart served for a year as the Associate Pastor of North Scottsdale United Methodist Church in Scottsdale, Arizona. He has also served as a youth minister in several churches and ran after school programs aimed at working families in Chicago for 5 years.
Stuart is a recent graduate of Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary in Evanston Illinois where he received his Masters of Divinity in 2018. He is also a graduate of Cornell College in Mount Vernon Iowa where he received his Bachelor of Arts in 2007.
In his spare time you can often catch him in area bookstores, exploring the beauty of the desert, spending time with his family, or playing with his dog Ginger.
Rev. Deanna Self-Price – UMC of Green Valley, Green Valley AZ will be highlighted next week.
Pastors that have new assignments in the South District:
Pastor Maribel Mojica-Calvo is now serving Duncan UMC, Duncan AZ; and
Rev. Matthew Ashley continues to serve at Sierra Vista UMC and is now also serving at Huachuca UMC.

Digest Aware is an IPhone Application that stands alone by offering solution to calculate, log and track meal's acidity/alkalinity and macronutrients, calories in a calendar with 3D graphs. The App grades and explains the user's food combination in order to achieve better digestion and suggests an eating sequence for each meals. By utilizing the App a person can easily understand why she/he becomes bloated or have heartburn, acidosis (nearly half of chronic diseases requiring hospitalization are related to too acidic diet) and how to prevent them. I would like to highlight the importance of alkaline diets for cancer prevention and the fact that digestive diseases cause yearly expenditures of over $17,000,000,000 in direct healthcare costs and a total annual economic burden of nearly $50,000,000,000.
There are over 6,500 food items to choose from in the App. Proper food combining allows one to conserve significant energy which is essential to recover from any disease or feel just energized. Sequential eating is used as a secondary principle for those who cannot follow the laws of food combining.
I won two natural bodybuilding world championships early on in my twenties, which taught me the fundamentals of nutrition and discipline, then in my early thirties I shifted my attention to health and natural healing when we discovered my wife had an early stage tumor in her brain. After a few months of cleansing and fundamental lifestyle changes my wife's MRI came back negative, here we would like to express our gratitude to God. In my late thirties up to present days I committed to software development, which opened up the doors to create Digest Aware®. My hope is that I can contribute and help educating others who are in need to make better food choices.

Gift of Morgan Scott Peck
The mission of The Foundation for Community Encouragement Inc. (FCE) was "to encourage people in a fragmented world to discover new and better ways of being together." Founded in December 1984 by Scott and Lily Peck and eleven others, the organization came into existence with the purpose of providing resources for the formation of communities by teaching principles through which they can be built and sustained. During the first semester of 2002, after reflecting on the mission and purpose of the FCE, the board of directors concluded that the foundation was no longer serving its purpose according to its established criteria and decided that FCE would end its activities. In July 2002, FCE organized The Foundation for Community Encouragement Final Gathering with the objectives of reflecting on FCE work and of planning for continuing communication among community builders. Community Crossroads was established as an informational web site maintained for the use of community builders around the world. Materials and resources from the FCE are made available to community builders through the web site http://fcecommunity.org/

What is a Drip Line?
Drip Line
Drip Irrigation Line
Drip Line Hose
Drip Line Installation
Drip Line System
Sprinkler Drip Line
In gardening, people use the term "drip line" in two different ways. One refers to an imaginary line created by the circumference of a tree's longest branches. The other is a literal line, a type of hose laid down for watering. The type of drip line under discussion is usually clear from the context.
Woman holding a book
In the first sense, the drip line is an important thing to understand when establishing and watering trees. Imagining a tree with branches that grow in perfect symmetry, the drip line creates a circle at the widest point of the branches. The ground inside that circle is inside the drip zone.
Trees have evolved to utilize water efficiently and creatively. High concentrations of water show up right at the drip line because water shed down the leaves of the tree drips off the leaves at the ends of the biggest branches. The tree has a number of rootlets that extend to the drip line to take advantage of this supply of water. Consequently, trees prefer to receive water at the drip line, rather than at their roots. Watering at the roots can actually cause rot and disease.
In the sense of a line used for irrigation, a drip line is a hose marked with small holes. When water flows through the hose, it leaches out of the holes. This allows people to deliver water across a wide area over a long period of time, providing deep watering to trees and plants. Watering slowly gives the soil time to absorb the water, while trees and plants take it up through their roots, in contrast with dumping large amounts of water all at once. When too much water is applied, much of it is lost by evaporation before it gets to the plants.
People can set up automatic drip line irrigation for a low-maintenance garden. In this irrigation scheme, the hoses are left in place and operate on a timer or activate when the gardener turns them on. It's also possible to drag out drip lines for specific irrigation tasks. The lines tend to last longer this way because they are not exposed to the elements by being left out, but it can be a nuisance to untangle and lay out drip lines for every watering session.
Gardening stores usually supply a range of irrigation products including drip lines and timers. People can also make their own by carefully puncturing a hole in a hose. The size and intervals of the punctures can be adjusted for different irrigation needs.

Q: Android RecyclerView скроллинг до определенного Item собираюсь писать тестовое задание расписания для вуза.
Имеется 7 возможных пар в день. Я думаю какой компонент выбрать для них.
Думаю можно выбрать RecyclerView для хранения в нем.
У каждой пары есть временной промежуток, когда она длится.
Вопрос: есть ли какой нибудь интерфейс для recyclerview, который при загрузки фрагмента может проскроллить до пары, которая идет в нужный момент.
Думаю если нет такой возможности, можно попробовать просто выделить нужную пару цветом

A: Можно так, если использовать LinearLayoutManager
LinearLayoutManager layoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(this);
recyclerView.setLayoutManager(layoutManager);

int indexOfItem = getCurrentIndex();
layoutManager.scrollToPositionWithOffset(indexOfItem , 0);

A: Класс RecyclerView имеет метод scrollToPosition(position), который переместит список в нужную позицию и метод smoothScrollToPosition(position), который сделает это же несколько плавнее.
Например, переместить список к шестому пункту (отсчет позиций начинается с 0)
recyclerView.scrollToPosition(5);

Q: Read from a binary file to a dynamic array of structures So, i've this binary file E1.bin and what i need is to read the info there and put it in a dynamic array os structures.
This is my structure where i need to put the info:
    typedef struct sala local, *plocal;

    struct sala{
    int id;
    int capacidade;
    int liga[3];
};

The content of the binary file is organized like so:
1
50
3
-1
-1
2
50
3
-1
-1
3
50
1
4
2
(and so on)
Each struct of the array needs to store 5 values: first is for id, second for capacidade, third for liga[0], fourth for liga[1] and fifth for liga[2], then goes to the next struct and does the same.
And this is the function im using to open the file and try to read it:
local *carregaEspaco(local *v, int *tam){

    char espaco[15];

    printf("Nome do ficheiro do espaco a carregar: ");
    gets(espaco);

    FILE *fe = fopen(espaco, "rb");

    if(!fe){
        printf("Erro ao abrir o ficheiro %s.\n\n", espaco);
        return NULL;
    }

    printf("Ficheiro %s aberto.\n\n", espaco);

    local *aux = NULL;
    int i = 1;

    while(fread(&aux, sizeof(local), 1, fe) == 1){

        if(aux == NULL)
            aux = malloc(sizeof(local));
        else
            aux = realloc(v, sizeof(local) * i);

        if(aux){
            v = aux;
            i++;
        }
    }

    *tam = i - 1;

    fclose(fe);
    return v;
}

I dont understand why isnt this working. Can anyone help me with this please ?

App State Routs Arkansas State 35-9 in Pivotal Sun Belt Conference game
Published Wednesday, October 10, 2018 at 9:41 am
Photo courtesy of Appalachian State Sports
By Tim Gardner
The preseason favorite to win the Sun Belt Conference's East Division looked far more impressive than the pick to win the league's West Division Tuesday night as Appalachian State rolled to a 35-9 win over Arkansas State at Centennial Bank Stadium in Jonesboro, AR before 21,421 fans and a ESPN2 national television audience.
With the victory, the Mountaineers (4-1 over-all; 2-0 conference) stake an early claim to the Sun Belt championship. It also was their 14th win in the last 16 conference road games. Appalachian State improved to 40-10 in its last 50 games overall.
Quarterback Zac Thomas had a hand in three touchdowns for the Mountaineers while accounting for 220 yards of offense–76 rushing and 144 through the air.
Arkansas State opening the scoring when Blake Grupe kicked a 31-yard field goal with 10:26 remaining in the first quarter to provide a 3-0 lead. The scoring drive covered 54 yards and took eleven plays.
It marked the first time Appalachian State has trailed in a game since its season opener on September 1 at Penn State.
Arkansas State (3-3 over-all; 0-2 conference) extended its advantage to 6-0 with 13:46 left in the second quarter when Grupe kicked a 47-yard field goal. The Red Wolves went 45 yards in ten plays for the score.
But Appalachian State answered just four plays later when Jalin Moore ripped off a 27-yard touchdown run, brushing off defenders and stretching the football across the goal line with 11:13 to go in the period. Chandler Staton added the conversion kick to put the Mountaineers ahead 7-6.
Darrynton Evans made a 39-yard run the play before the touchdown to set it up. It came on the Mountaineers' fifth offensive drive.
But Moore, Appalachian's State's senior offensive backfield leader, hurt his right ankle on the touchdown run. He remained on the ground after the play. Medical personnel put his right leg in an air cast, and he was carted off the field. He didn't re-enter the game, and finished with 32 yards on seven carries.
Before Moore's score, Appalachian State's offense had barely moved the ball, gaining only 31 yards combined on its first four drives.
Grupe kicked his third field goal–this one from 33 yards– to put the Red Wolves back in front at 9-7 with 4:37 remaining in the half.
But the Mountaineers regained the lead on their next possession when wide receiver Corey Sutton caught a 25-yard touchdown pass from Thomas 2:57 before intermission. Staton booted the extra point for a 14-9 score.
That scoring strike was set up two plays earlier by a 41-yard catch by wide receiver Jalen Virgil.
Cornerback Tae Hayes intercepted a pass by Red Wolves quarterback Justice Hansen deep in Arkansas State territory (22 yard line) and returned the ball to the 3 moments later to set up the Mountaineers next points. Evans ran for a 1-yard touchdown and Staton followed with the point-after kick to boost the lead to 21-9 with 45 seconds left before intermission.
Evans rushed for a career-high 115 yards in relief of Moore.
Appalachian State safety Josh Thomas then picked off a Hansen pass on the ensuing possession, stopping Arkansas State's last-ditch effort to score before halftime.
Appalachian State had only 187 total yards of offense in the first half, and 149 of them came on two drives. The Mountaineers finished with a total of 390 yards, 144 passing and 246 rushing.
The Mountaineers drove 86 yards in five plays for their initial second-half score, capped by a 3-yard touchdown jump pass from Thomas to tight end Collin Reed with 2:52 left in the third quarter. Staton made the PAT to increase the lead to 28-9.
A 57-yard gallop by Evans to the Arkansas State 24 helped create that touchdown.
Appalachian's third interception of Hansen occurred right after defensive backs Austin Exford and Steven Jones swallowed up an Arkansas State punt returner for a 5-yard loss. Exford then picked off a pass tipped by teammate (linebacker) Akeem Davis-Gaither for his first career interception, allowing the Mountaineers to record more interceptions off Hansen than he had totaled in the Red Wolves' first five games combined.
Zac Thomas then dashed 62 yards for an insurance score with 6:09 remaining and Staton converted his fifth extra point kick to push Appalachian State's cushion to 35-9 as the game became a rout.
Hansen, the Sun Belt's preseason pick for its offensive player of the year, was 25-for-40 passing with 209 yards and no touchdowns. It was a gritty effort by the Mountaineers' defense against Hansen as he had thrown at least one passing touchdown in 21 of his previous 22 games.
Appalachian State's defense also forced seven three-and-outs and allowed a total of only the nine points on the five Arkansas State drives that advanced to at least the Mountaineers' 35-yard line. The Red Wolves were limited to 336 total yards, including 219 through the air, as linebacker Jordan Fehr also contributed a solo sack.
Appalachian State is off this Saturday before returning to action October 20 with a Family Weekend home game against Sun Belt foe Louisiana. The game will kick-off at 3:30 p.m. in Kidd Brewer Stadium.

In celebration of the life and work of their bassist Tim Feerick, who tragically passed away April 13, Alternative Press is honored to present Dance Gavin Dance as one of its May cover stars.
The world-exclusive cover story serves as both a deep dive into the band's upcoming 10th full-length, Jackpot Juicer, as well as a celebration of Feerick. Our interview — conducted both before and after the tragic events of April 13 — marks the first time the band have publicly spoken about their friend and what he meant to them, their experience onstage at a highly emotional Swanfest in their hometown of Sacramento, California last weekend, as well as the personal and creative journey behind their forthcoming record.

Alternative Press is also offering fans an exclusive cassette variant of the album, which is available as part of a special bundle with the physical magazine. You can find all the details at the AP Store.
Inside, you will also find brand-new band photos, as well as stunning live images captured by photographer Jordan Kelsey Knight at Swanfest.
Read two excerpts from AP 406's cover story, written by Jeremy Price, below.
On Tim Feerick
When asked to describe his friend in three words, Jon Mess doesn't hesitate: "Tim's very generous, and very friendly and open. He would often say whatever the hell was on his mind at any time.
"He has this tattoo on his arm that said, 'BE ABOVE IT,'" he adds, the subconscious switches between present- and past-tense verbs telling how raw this horrible misfortune remains. "He had this kindhearted but no-fucks-given kind of attitude. There's an edge to it, but it was sweet at the same time."
It was a sweetness Feerick shared with everyone, not just friends and family. "I remember at one of our shows, Sean [Heydorn] from Rise Records brought his son," Mess says. "Tim collects all the Jurassic Park action figures, and one of the drawers had this T-Rex toy in it that Tim had bought earlier that day. Tim's like, 'You can have it!' And just gives it to the kid. Then the next day, we're at a mall, and I see Tim walking back from a store with the same toy. He had to rebuy it to add it to his collection."
On Jackpot Juicer
"It's sort of like the hard work of the band coming to fruition after an extended period of time," Mess says of the alliterative album title. It also relates to a little gift that Mess was given by his girlfriend. He holds up his keys, attached to which is a 6-inch lanyard bearing a single word in all caps: "JUICY."
The record started with Swan writing the first four demos at the beginning of the pandemic lockdown. Following some time off to recharge their creative batteries, the band used their enforced downtime to prepare more original material than ever, eventually flying to Portland to record with legendary producer Kris Crummett, who has worked with Crown The Empire, Sleeping With Sirens and more. The recording process was to be no walk in the park, however; to put it simply, Crummett does not fuck around. "I've worked with other producers on my solo stuff, and there have been days when we've literally just sat around and talked," clean vocalist Tilian Pearson says. "But Kris would never do that. He's like, 'You're working from this time to this time, and if you're not prepared, leave.'"
Though he isn't the most easygoing collaborator, Crummett has a keen ear for heavy music — and the people skills to bring out the best in others, even when they're at the end of their rope. Drummer Matt Mingus, for example, remembers struggling with the last song he was set to record, "Feels Bad Man." Both physically and mentally drained from all the studio sessions, he was ready to throw in the towel and simply change the part to make it easier. "But Kris is like, 'No, you've got this, man. Just go take a smoke break or chill for 10 minutes, and we'll come back to it,'" he recalls. He looks back on the experience with pride.

Why do so few Russians speak good English?
Yekaterina Sinelschikova
Natalya Nosova
Russians have been struggling with the English language for several generations now and just can't quite seem to master it. But why is learning English—often regarded as a relatively straightforward language—such a headache for many Russians?
There is a joke among Slavs that always gets a good laugh at a party: They just start speaking in English with a heavy "Russian" accent—just like the Russian villains in Hollywood movies talk. So yes, the notorious Russian accent in movies might be yet another thing that Hollywood has exaggerated (albeit not entirely unfounded in this case).
But can you imagine that most Russians have never heard the original English-language voices of the characters in South Park or The Simpsons? Literally never.
"You bet I was shocked when I heard unfamiliar voices coming from Homer's, Marge's and Bart's mouths," recalls user Alex DeLarge on Quora, a linguist with experience living in Russia. At the time, The Simpsons was being shown on Russian TV, fully dubbed into Russian, and Alex immediately thought: "People in Russia could watch The Simpsons for decades without even knowing the sound of their characters' voices."
This is true. In Russia, almost all foreign movies and TV shows are dubbed. This is the norm and has never really been questioned except by a very small handful of movie nerds in the big cities. Could this be one of the reasons most Russians have trouble understanding and speaking English? In terms of English proficiency, the country is near the bottom of the list among European countries—only Ukraine, Georgia and Turkey came in lower. And while movies and TV dubbed into Russian might be one reason, it is certainly not the only one.
Few Russians travel abroad
In fact, living in Russia without knowing English isn't much of a problem. All foreign films shown in the country are dubbed, and most books are translated. And so in most cases this enormous country covering an area larger than the surface of Pluto doesn't really have to struggle with the grammatical structures of foreign languages, which have no major role in most people's lives.
Mikhail Tereshchenko/TASS
For most Russians, the matter of speaking English only comes up if they travel abroad. But this doesn't even apply to many people since 72 percent of Russians don't even have a foreign passport, and 59 percent of them have never traveled beyond the borders of the former Soviet Union.
Soviet school
If you ask a Russian where and when they studied English, most likely you will hear the standard reply: "For about eight years at school and then at university." You might think this is a very long time, or at least long enough to become fluent in English, but you'd be wrong there.
"In the end we can observe a sort of 'dog syndrome' common to almost all Russians—both children and adults—that can be summed up as: 'I can understand something, but I can't say anything," says Margarita Golomidova, a teacher.
E. Alesin/Sputnik
The Soviet, and later Russian, state schools where most children receive their education have generally preferred and still prefer to teach grammar rather than conversational language or, in general, how to grasp a language in terms of what it sounds like. Katerina Litvinova, who now lives in London, recalls: "When I studied at MGIMO [Moscow State Institute of International Relations] no one taught me how to write business letters to partners by email, let alone formal letters like applications, etc.!"
There is another reason too: The English language of the 19th century is what was adopted as the standard in Soviet schools. Thus, according to "Soviet English," "dinner" is "supper," "lunch" is "dinner" and "hello" is the only correct greeting because "hi" is seen as disrespectful.
Historical reasons
Before World War II, English was less important for continental Europe than, say, French or German. Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, high society in Russia spoke French more (and sometimes even better) than their own native language, while German was regarded as the language of technology. "I still remember the huge volumes of Hütte [a reference work for engineers] that my grandfather kept for his heirs," says Vadim Berman, the founder of several startups.
Difficult and terrifying language
Many Russians find English grammar terrifying. They often forget or confuse the English articles "a" and "the" because the latter don't exist in Russian. But even more destructive is the fear of making a mistake. For some reason, many Russians think that if they make a mistake in conversation in a foreign language, they will be judged harshly for it. Many have simply have not been told that it's not the end of the world to make a mistake.
Valery Sharifulin
"We can't relax," says Olga Fedorova. "My mother told me that during a visit to Czechoslovakia she had to use English. She was surprised how freely and without embarrassment the Czechs, for whom it is not their native language, spoke English. She struggled with sentence structure in her head and checked all points of grammar before saying anything. For their part, the Czechs made mistakes and didn't seem particularly bothered."
Finally, English is not really needed that much on the Russian labor market. Inna Anisimova, who heads PR Partner, says, "As someone who has done an MBA in English, I can say that Russia has such a big domestic market that there is no need to learn English and go abroad. There is simply no point in it."
Maksim Blinov/Sputnik
HR specialists do see a point in it, albeit a very limited one. For example, 80 percent of vacancies require some knowledge of English. And while this is a real necessity for people working at Western companies, at most Russian companies it is often just a sort of "image filter" designed to single out better-qualified candidates, but English might never actually be needed at work.

Former Major Leaguer Moises Alou spent his only season with the Florida Marlins in 1997. Alou made it a productive one as the son of Felipe' Alou guided the Florida Marlins to the franchise's first ever World Series title, in only their fifth season of existence. Alou batted .292 with 23 home runs and 115 RBI and was selected as an All-Star for the second time in 1997.

Q: Service data not being updated Angular I have a Service whose method getData(type) is called everytime a controller loads. This function is supposed to update two objects dealers and items of it's own. These two objects are referenced by my controller to watch for changes and update the view accordingly but the factory variables never get updated and hence the view never get's populated. Here is my factory
    app.factory('LS', function($window) {
    var dealers=[];
    var items=[];
    console.log(this);
return {
    setData: function(type,val) {
        type=='dealers'?chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.set('dealers', JSON.stringify(val)):chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.set('items', JSON.stringify(val));
        return this;
    },
    getData: function(type) {
        if(type=='dealers'){
            chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.get('dealers',function(result){
                if(Object.keys(result).length)
                {
                    this.dealers=result.dealers;
                }
                else{
                    var val=[{name:"name",id:5},{},...];
                chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.set({'dealers': JSON.stringify(val)});
                chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.get('dealers',function(result){
                    this.dealers=result.dealers;
                });
                }
            });
        }
        else
        {
            chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.get('items',function(result){
                if(Object.keys(result).length)
                {
                    this.items=result.items;
                }
                else{
                    var val=[{name:"name",price:500,number:0},{},...];
                    chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.set({'items': JSON.stringify(val)});
                    chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.get('items',function(result){
                        this.items=result.items;
                    });
                }
            })
        }
    },
    dealers:dealers,
    items:items
};
  })

And here's my controller
    .controller('OrderCtrl', function($scope,$timeout, $stateParams,LS) {
    this.dealers=LS.dealers;
    this.itemslist=LS.items;
    LS.getData('dealers');
    LS.getData('items');
    $scope.resetitems=angular.copy($scope.itemslist);
    $scope.order={dealer:'',submissionDate:new Date()};
    $scope.resetorder=angular.copy($scope.order);
    $scope.doRefresh = function() {

        console.log('Refreshing!');
        $timeout( function() {
            //simulate async response
            $scope.dealers=LS.getData('dealers');
            $scope.itemslist = LS.getData('items');
            //Stop the ion-refresher from spinning
            $scope.$broadcast('scroll.refreshComplete');

        }, 1000);

    };
    $scope.sum = function() {
        var total=0;
        angular.forEach($scope.itemslist , function(item){
            //if(false)
            total=total+(item.data*item.number);
        });
        return total;
    }
    var ordered=[];
    $scope.submit=function(){
        angular.forEach($scope.itemslist , function(item){
            if(item.number>0)
            {
                ordered.push({'name':item.value,'pcs':item.number,'price':(item.data*item.number)});
            }
        });
        alert('You ordered '+ ordered);

        addOrder({"dealername":JSON.parse($scope.order.dealer).name,"dealerid":JSON.parse($scope.order.dealer).id,"date":$scope.order.submissionDate,"bill":$scope.sum(),"items":ordered});
        ordered=[];
        angular.copy($scope.resetorder,$scope.order);
        angular.copy($scope.resetitems,$scope.itemslist);
    }
     })

A: The problem lies here
chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.get('dealers',function(result){ if(Object.keys(result).length) { this.dealers=result.dealers; } else{ var val=[{name:"name",id:5},{},...]; chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.set({'dealers': JSON.stringify(val)}); chrome.storage.local && chrome.storage.local.get('dealers',function(result){ this.dealers=result.dealers; }); }
In the controller I am assigning the dealers in the controller to the dealers in the factory and then in the factory, I change the reference of dealers so the dealers in the controller are pointing to a previous memory location and the dealers in the factory are now pointing to the new memory location.
The solution is to not change the factory variable reference.

The Goal Activity Guide is designed to empower young girls for personal and economic development. We have thought carefully about this education toolkit, and used some of the best materials available from top organizations, to help you deliver the programme in the best way possible.
Flexibility: many of the topics have several activities to choose from. You can decide which activities you think will work best for your audience in a given period. Mix and match them.
Timing: we understand that some weeks you'll have more time than others to deliver Goal. So we offer a variety of activities, ranging in time from 20 minutes to two hours, that you can use to suit your needs.
Best Practice: with existing education programmes like Living with HIV, Standard Chartered has developed best practices in creating quality education materials. We've also worked closely with the Population Council to design a holistic programme that covers the issues that adolescent girls need to know. In this toolkit we've reprinted activities from some of the top programmes working with young girls, as well as written new ones with our ultimate mission in mind.
Skills Development: because Goal is about empowerment, we hopethe programme will give new skills not just to you, the Goal Champion, but to our participants as well. Goal Champions/facilitators will also develop their own skills in public speaking, facilitation and life skills education through our 'Train the Trainer' programme.
We hope that you will really enjoy your role as a Goal Champion. Your efforts will truly make a difference to girls in your community and around the world. Welcome to the team!
