The debate over how to improve passenger rail in America (part 1): NYC Penn Station
An example of what the platforms and tracks would look like if Penn Station was rebuilt for through-running service.
Thank you to ReThinkNYC, for allowing us to use their graphics to help explain the issue at Penn Station. Check out the videos on their site for a more in-depth look at their proposal for improving Penn Station and creating a regional rail network.
Proposed renovation plans for New York's Penn Station and Washington D.C.'s Union Station signal that two major cities are giving high priority to trains in their growth plans. Which is great news.
But there is a contentious debate over how the projects should move forward. The debate comes down to this question: Will potential riders be more incentivized by fast, frequent trains—or by beautiful, modernized stations?
Current plan for Penn Station, for example, would totally renovate and beautify the building but do nothing to improve the platforms in the station, which date to the building's construction in the early 1900s. Penn served vastly fewer passengers in that era.
Those crowded platforms are a big problem—beyond just safety and inconvenience issues. Spacious platforms are key to improving train service overall, because wider platforms allow people to board (and exit) trains much more quickly. For example, passengers exiting the train could use one side, and those entering could use the other.
Faster boarding would allow for trains to get in and out more quickly. And that would allow for more frequent service. Combined with through-running—or the ability for trains to pass through the station, rather than terminating there—wider platforms in Penn Station could drive a true transformation of New York's transportation system.
NYC's system could be comparable, in fact, to the excellent regional express rail systems in Paris, London, Tokyo, and elsewhere. Which is the path not taken in the current plan.
With that background in mind, here's a look at where the Penn Station project stands—and a summary of the vision for Penn Station put forward by the plan's critics. We'll focus on D.C.'s Union Station in part 2.
Proposed upgrades
Rendering of a renovated Penn Station under the current plans.
One thing nearly everyone agrees on is that Penn Station desperately needs to be reimagined and renovated.
It's the busiest railway station in North America, handling roughly 107 million passenger entries and exits each year before the pandemic (versus 67 million at NYC's Grand Central Terminal and 65 million at Toronto's Union Station). The architecture critic for the New York Times summed up the consensus when he called it "humiliating and bewildering" and a "rat's maze."
The current plan has cleared some hurdles recently and is working its way through the political and bureaucratic processes. The $7 billion project would create a 250,000 square-foot, single-level facility—roughly doubling the passenger-circulation space of the current building. It would also implement a set of substantial cosmetic improvements. Notably, it would raise the ceilings; add a skylight to create a sunny main hall; add several new entrances and dozens of new escalators and elevators; expand underground passageways; and add retail space. Outside, there would be eight acres of new public space—including a new, 30,000-square-feet public plaza—and more protected bike lanes, redesigned subway entrances, and landscaped sitting areas.
All of this would be financed in large part by a real-estate deal involving the construction of 10 new buildings on eight sites adjacent to the station. The development would create 18 million square feet of office and retail space, as well as a hotel and 1,800 mixed-income housing units.
The Metropolitan Transit Authority, which is leading the project, calls this "a commuter-first plan to transform Penn Station into a first-class transit hub that better serves passengers with more space, new retail and amenities, and improved accessibility options."
One criticism directed at the project is the fact that this plan benefits one well-connected developer in particular, Vornado Realty Trust, which owns and/or manages roughly 20 million square feet of Manhattan office space. Vornado was a big donor to the plan's first booster, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. It is now a big donor to his successor, Kathy Hochul. Vornado would receive up to $1.2 billion in tax breaks in the deal.
It is unclear whether revenues from the deal would actually meet the cost of the overhaul. Reinvent Albany, a watchdog group that opposes the plan, recently noted that the shortfall could range from $3.4 billion to $5.9 billion. "Redevelopment is great when it serves public needs," Reinvent Albany argues, "but the Penn Station plan will serve campaign donors more than it serves New Yorkers, and fails to meet basic standards of transparency or good government." Forbes noted that the plan follows New York's "same old, same old pattern of opaque deal making."
But the most prominent criticism is that the plan would require the construction of a new station, south of the current one, to handle overflow traffic from the Long Island Rail Road and New Jersey Transit. Their commuter trains swamp Penn Station during rush hours. The redesign would do nothing to relieve this congestion, which is set to become even worse as the vast Gateway Program rebuilds the tracks connecting NYC and New Jersey—and upgrades their capacity—over the next decade.
In addition to the $13 billion price tag, critics focus on the fact that the expansion would involve razing of dozens of buildings, including several of historical significance. The buildings that could be lost include St. John the Baptist Church, built in 1871, and the Stewart Hotel, built in 1929.
Losing significant buildings to the expansion is an especially sore point, since the original Penn Station was razed in 1963 to clear the way for Madison Square Garden. Penn was then relocated under the arena, where it remains. Many preservationists consider the loss of the original, 1910 Beaux-Arts building one of the great architectural crimes of the 20th century. "When the old Penn Station was lost," the New York Times argued, "New York lost its faith."
"We think there are ways to do this, where you can rebuild Penn Station and improve the neighborhood," one critic told the Gothamist. "We're giving up the heavens for mediocrity at ground level, and then destroying all these historic resources and people's homes and businesses."
The alternative: Penn as a hub of regional express rail
Critics believe everything that the proposed expansion delivers could be done much better—and cheaper—with a properly renovated Penn Station.
They focus on through-running as the key to success. Penn is currently a terminal station, meaning that trains exit by reversing course rather than moving through it—which creates delays as exiting trains wait on entering trains, and vice versa.
The advocacy group ReThinkNYC, for example, notes that through running "could generate at least as much capacity at half the cost" of building the Penn Station expansion, and it "would provide a superior commuting experience." ReThinkNYC's big-picture vision calls for Penn Station to be the "centerpiece of a coordinated and fully modern transportation system," which it calls the Regional Unified Network.
The plan calls for making "a few crucial investments at key chokepoints" that will "unlock the full potential of our transit networks." Penn Station is the most prominent among those chokepoints. Fixing it would allow for faster, more frequent trains in NYC and throughout the region.
At Pedestrian Observations, Alon Levy notes that through-running would be transformative in large part because many of the tracks could be removed, creating space for wider platforms. That's key because the wider platforms would allow passengers to board and disembark much more quickly and efficiently, which in turn would reduce "dwell times"—i.e., the time that trains spend idling—in the station.
Planners assumed dwell times of eight minutes in Penn (with through-running) when they analyzed the options for renovating it, Levy notes. But if you instead assume a "reasonable figure of 2 minutes in dwell time per train," through-running would increase capacity at Penn Station dramatically. Trains could run faster and with fewer delays. And passengers could enter and exit them much more quickly.
Last chance?
In sum: Critics of the current plan believe that a smart reimagining of Penn Station would transform NYC's entire transportation system—and eliminate the need for an expensive and destructive expansion south of the current station. And the stakes here are very high. It's not just the $13 billion price tag for a Penn Station expansion that's at issue. Getting this project right is vital to the region's future. As one advocacy group noted, the "existing rail system hands us, perhaps for the last time, the opportunity to save, rebuild and recreate communities that have been losing out to the ravages of sprawled development."
This debate will continue. Having excellent train service and beautiful stations shouldn't be an either/or calculus, obviously. But in the near term, that appears to be the choice facing D.C. and New York. That's because funding for transit is relatively scarce; construction costs in the U.S. are notoriously high; major projects require buy-in from multiple agencies; and building political will often takes years or even decades.
Whatever the outcome, advocates for transit can find hope in the fact that the energy and momentum for deep change are steadily building. "It may take many years to fully transform the big-city systems, but it is not just wishful thinking," as Governing recently noted. "There's a real, achievable prize out there waiting to be seized. If we can make progress on transit, we can create momentum for dealing with the more difficult urban challenges that remain."

Marie-Alexandra Bernier (M-A.B) – I was looking for an internship in a legal department for the second part of my gap year. I went through the list of companies participating to the Fair and after a quick search on the internet, I selected about fifteen companies which were of interest to me for several reasons : their sector of activity and the challenges associated to that sector, their international presence and their attractiveness for students and young graduates. This upstream research allowed me first, to discern the companies that I wanted to meet in priority, and second, make comments or ask questions about current happenings in the company during interviews. Finally, the module « Career Building » offered by the Career Services undoubtedly contributed to better my knowledge about the profession of legal expert as well as to clarify my career plan, which allowed me to appear more convincing during interviews.
How did you introduce yourself at the stand of Casino ?

Jawbone just unveiled a new fitness tracker called the Move, which comes with the same sensors as its Up 24 wristband.
The $US50 Move can be worn in either a clip-on or wristband form factor. It's a lot like the $US99 Misfit Shine, which can also keep track of your steps, calories burned, and monitor your sleep.
Jawbone's new Move comes in a wide variety of colour options, and like the Shine, you can tap the tiny module to see how close you are to your goal.
The sensors inside the Jawbone UP Move are exactly the same as those inside the Jawbone UP 24. The main difference in terms of functionality is that the Move doesn't buzz to deliver notifications.
There's a watch battery on the inside that lasts for about six months, according to Jawbone. It's also water resistant just like the UP 24.
Based on Jawbone's description, it sounds like it offers the same functionality as the Misfit Shine but for half the price.
The device itself is pretty tiny, and it's easy to pop out of the clip or band.
The clips come in a ton of different colours, and Jawbone says the band will be available in several colour options too.
Here's what the back of the clip looks like.
The Jawbone Move will be available to preorder on Nov. 5 before it goes on sale later this month.


You are in a committed relationship, but temptation still strikes. Whether it's the constant over-sexed images on TV or a temptation closer to home (say, your hot co-worker), over the course of your relationship you can be faced with the urge – and maybe even the opportunity – to cheat. So what is the best advice to help you remain true to your partner?
1. When you are dealing with temptation, acknowledge it, but do not entertain it. Don't cling to those fantasies – especially if the object of your fantasies is someone close to you, making cheating a real feasible possibility. Sure, it could hurt your partner's feelings to find out that you fantasize about Angelina Jolie, but she'd never be a real threat. However, if you are girlfriend's sister or friend becomes the object of your thoughts, you need to squash that as quickly as possible.
2. Once you have acknowledged the object of your fantasy, if you cannot just forget about her, focus on her less appealing aspects. Whether it is a nasal voice, a weird tattoo, or a face she makes. As long as you are reminding yourself that she is not better for you than the woman whom you are actually with, you will be less likely to lose yourself in the heat of the moment. One of the greatest pitfalls people find when they are thinking about cheating is that they build it up too much. This new, tempting woman is not necessarily better than the person you are with – she is just new to you! Chances are the person that you are in a long-term relationship with is a much better match for you and the grass is not any greener on the other side.
3. The single best advice when dealing with temptation – Never forget the consequences. Take everything into consideration. Are you so miserable in your current relationship that sleeping with someone else is worth losing what you have? Are you even unhappy, or are you just bored? Regardless, you have to be aware that if you give into the temptation to cheat on your partner, and he or she finds out, there is a good chance you will lose that person for good. In addition, even if your partner chooses to be a better person than you and stays with you even after your infidelity has come to light, your relationship may never be the same. Once you violate that trust, it can take years for the relationship to fully recover, and even when it does, it leaves scars and things will never be the same.
So if you are thinking about succumbing to temptation, don't take it lightly. Your relationship can be fixed, but it is much less painful and quicker to fix it if you have not added infidelity to the list of problems.

PAKISTAN & GULF ECONOMIST sought perspective of Mr. Waheed Ahmed, Patron-in-chief PVFA regarding the logistics and enhancement of export of fruits & vegetables. Following are the excerpts of the conversation:
Another stiff challenge has now emerged as a barrier to the enhancement of export of fruits & vegetables after the Federal Ministry of National Food Security & Research (MNFSR) has recently enhanced fee for issuance of phyto-certificate exorbitantly for the exports' consignments. A sudden increase in fee by approx. 800 % for issuance of phyto-certificate has been imposed and now the exporters are paying Rs.2500 to get a phyto-certificate instead of Rs. 300 while this increase has already been implemented from Sept. 2020. This sudden exorbitant increase in fee of the phyto-certificate without any consultation with the Association (PFVA), being the main stakeholder is unbearable as an abnormal increase of Rs. 2200 would further multiply cost of the exports' consignments making it very difficult to compete in international markets. While the government is striving hard to enhance exports of fruits & vegetables, the MNFSR being part of the government has increased fee of phyto-certificate to about 800% (Rs.300 to Rs. 2500) which indicates serious discrepancy in desire and action towards it's fulfilment by the Government of Pakistan (GoP) and thus the sincere efforts by the GoP would be null & void. The disproportionate increase in fee is unrealistic and would seriously hit exports by air.
The maximum fee of phyto-certificate in India is USD 1.36 equivalent to PKR 228 while it is USD 0.87 equivalent to PKR 140 in Sri Lanka & USD 0.24 equivalent to PKR 40 in Bangladesh, while Rs. 300 being charged by Pakistan was already higher and now that been further enhanced to Rs.2500 and on top of that for an export's consignment having multiple containers, phyto-certificate is required to obtained for each container separately and hence one can well imagine the high resulting cost of one such export's shipment.
After COVID -19 global pandemic, the export of fruits & vegetables by air has been encountering great difficulties due to exorbitant increase in cost of air freight by the airlines and with such undesirable increase in issuance fee of phyto-certificate, it has added fuel to the fire and hence possibility of complete discontinuation export of fruits and vegetables by air cannot be ruled out since the cost of phyto-certificate is far much higher than the profit earned on an item.
The PFVA, Federal Government and Ministry of Commerce are jointly striving hard to enhance exports of fruits & vegetables and due to these strenuous efforts, export of fruits & vegetables was enhanced & fetched valuable foreign exchange of USD 730 million by export despite closure of international market and logistic issues in Pakistan during the global pandemic of COVID-19 while all efforts are being made to ensure consistency in exports enhancement this year. The Federal Ministry of National Food Security & Research is appealed to re-consider the recent abnormal increase in the issuance fee of phyto-certificate and keeping the national and International situation in view, the fee shall be brought down to a reasonable level, comparable with other countries.

Dorothee Mields
"[The] choice of Dorothee Mields to sing the vocal items is excellent. It is hard to find a better interpreter for Purcell's vocal music outside the English-speaking world. At the beginning of her career she was compared to the young Emma Kirkby. Since then her voice has grown and become stronger and warmer. But she still has some of the skills which have made Ms Kirkby famous: immaculate diction and pronunciation, and a fine taste for ornamentation."
MusicWeb International, April 2011
Dorothee Mields is one of the leading interpreters of 17th and 18th century music and is beloved by audiences and critics alike for her unique timbre and moving interpretations. Her flawless technique and the ethereal clarity of her voice also make her ideally suited for works by contemporary composers.
She appears regularly with the Collegium Vocale Gent, Bach Collegium Japan, Netherlands Bach Society, Freiburg Baroque Orchestra, RIAS Kammerchor, Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century, L'Orfeo Baroque Orchestra, Lautten Compagney and Klangforum Wien under such conductors as Stefan Asbury, Ivor Bolton, Frans Brüggen, Beat Furrer, Paul Goodwin, Philippe Herreweghe, Gustav Leonhardt, Emilio Pomárico, Hans-Christoph Rademann, Stephen Stubbs, Masaaki Suzuki and Jos van Veldhoven.
Dorothee Mields is a welcome guest at international festivals, including the Leipzig Bach Festival, Suntory Music Foundation Summer Festival in Japan, Boston Early Music Festival, Flanders Festival, Vienna Festival, the Handel Festival in Halle and the Tanglewood Festival. A steadily growing discography with several award-winning recordings documents her artistic achievements. Recent releases of "In Darkness Let me Dwell" and "Loves Alchymie" (with Hille Perl and Lee Santana, Sony/dhm) and Purcell "Love Songs" (with the Lautten Compagney, Carus) have received great critical acclaim. A recording of Chopin Lieder (with pianist Nelson Goerner) for the Fryderyk Chopin Institute Warszawa has been released in summer 2011.
Besides several concert tours with Collegium Vocale Gent and the Netherlands Bach Society, highlights of the 2011/12 season include a recital with Nelson Goerner at the "Chopin and his Europe" Festival in Warszawa (August 2011), Mozart's 'Mass in C minor' and 'Requiem' at the Vézelay Festival and at the Festival de Musique La Chaise-Dieu under the baton of Pierre Cao (August 2011), concert tours with Ton Koopman and the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra (Mozart 'Requiem' in September 2011 and Bach Cantatas in June 2012), as well as concerts with the Lautten Compagney at the Lucerne Festival (September 2011) and at the Ludwigsburger Schloßfestspiele (June 2012). Concerts with Hille Perl and Lee Santana are scheduled in August and November 2011 and in February and March 2012.

Cathy Shufro teaches writing to twenty-first-century undergraduates at Yale.
Watch John Demos's lecture on Colonial Yale.
For the first day of History 115, The Colonial Period of American History, Professor John Demos likes to describe life at Yale in the early eighteenth century. This article is based on his lecture.
It's 1730, maybe 1735, and you've just arrived at Yale College. Apparently you aced the admissions interview, conducted wholly in Latin and Greek. You've sized up the campus, just a single sky-blue building, and you've stacked wood beside the fireplace in your chamber.
You're a man, of course; women won't be admitted for another couple of centuries. And you're not only a man but a gentleman, as annual tuition comes to £25 ($5,000-plus in twenty-first-century terms). There are no scholarships on offer, no FAFSA forms to fill out, no work-study jobs.
If you have any gumption, you'll risk that by pulling pranks. You might, for instance, surreptitiously herd a few sheep into the chapel, or replace candlewicks with fuses that cause small explosions during prayer, or tuck some ducks under the pews.
Your day begins when the college bell rings at 6 a.m., and breakfast is bread and beer. Everyone must be in his room at 9 p.m. Candles out at 11. No rekindling allowed before 4 a.m.
Despite the parochial standards of students' daily lives at Yale, there is still room for debauchery. As a Yalie undergraduate recounts, he and his cohorts concocted a beverage of six quarts of rum, two pails of cider, and eight pounds of sugar, and proceeded to enjoy "so prodigious a rout that we raised the tutor." Next stop: a local tavern.
As they say, the more things change . . .

This is the error I keep seeing

Unexpected parameter encountered during deserialization: acct at [line:1, column:10]","errorCode":"JSON_PARSER_ERROR"}]

It seems that no matter what I do it complains at the location in the JSON where it get just past the very first object and gets into the inner objects. I tried doing this without the RequestWrapper and just serializing the account directly but had the same problem. I think I must be doing something wrong with the serialization process.
Does anyone have some suggestions?
Thanks,
Chris

MIDWAY GOES ALL THE WAY
Inspiring reenactment of the days before and of the watershed Battle of Midway during World War II, highlighting the selfless heroism and courageous dedication of men who committed EVERYTHING they had to fighting what seemed to be a losing struggle with the Japanese Empire.
Mid teens and up as the violence is necessarily graphic and brutal. No sexuality but the language is occasionally rough and appropriate to the men and circumstances.
Romans 5:7: "Indeed, only with difficulty does one die for a just man, though perhaps for a good man one might even find courage to die."
We all love action heroes who put their lives on the line in extreme moments to save family or friends in desperate situations: Bruce Willis' John McLane in the Die Hard series, Tony Stark in Endgame. Even the disaster "B" movies like Skyscraper and The Poseidon Adventure can be guilty pleasures, admiring (pretend) courage in the face of the (manufactured) crisis.
Now imagine HUNDREDS of these types of everymen, volunteers or drafted, trained certainly but no superheroes. But this was real. These men had real families and lives. The pain, the terror, the disfiguring injuries and sudden young deaths, the gut wrenching grief left behind, HAPPENED to people your grandparents knew – or TO your grandparents. Your own family histories, photos, private letters, and stories told at family gatherings are probably rife with tales of loss and sacrifice of young men who left everything behind, including their youth and many their lives, to protect their country and families.
The story of Midway begins on a warm December in Hawaii, where people planning outdoor church services and picnics with their families, are suddenly faced with split-second life changing and life losing decisions when, without warning, planes tore out of the sky shooting at friends and crewmates, ripping them to pieces. Few would have blamed any who froze or ran, but hundreds of these men seized the nearest weapon to shoot back, some hopelessly trying to simply buy time for others to reach safety, while the vessel they were on broke, sank or burned in brutish apocalyptic Hellscapes of screaming and smoke and explosions, with no possibility of escape.
That was Pearl Harbor and the movie Midway examines the fallout from this cataclysmic event and the eponymous Battle for our lives that followed in Pearl's wake. The Battle of Midway was the determiner whether the war would continue to be fought out in the ocean and around Japan and Europe or whether it would make its way to the shores of continental USA and be prolonged, possibly for decades.
Midway tells the story of the men who, at Pearl and during the Midway Battle, followed Christ's example, willingly offering up their lives for their fellow countrymen regardless of who they were, knowing only that they were in desperate danger.
All of the acting choices were inspired, the indigenous accents of the people being portrayed understated and realistic.
Woody Harrelson (2012, Zombieland, The Glass Castle) is the perfect Charles W. Nimitz, bringing his familiar wary self confidence to this real life seasoned soldier, agonizingly cognizant he is in the fight of his country's life.
Dennis Quaid (Frequency, A Dog's Purpose, The Alamo) is the growly fire hydrant shaped tough guy William "Bull" Halsey who leads from the front.
Patrick Wilson, (The Alamo, Phantom of the Opera) whose talents have been grotesquely underused in the fright flick Conjuring franchise, comes into his own as the intelligence officer Edwin Layton, whose warnings leading up to Pearl had been ignored and who now was determined to put everything on the line to be sure his country was never under-prepared again.
Ed Skrein (Alita: Battle Angel, Deadpool) is the fighter pilot Dick Best, who put his country's freedom and his fellow patriots before any consideration for his own personal safety.
Aaron Eckhart (Batman: Dark Knight, White House Down) is Jimmy Doolittle who led the potential suicide mission into the never-before attacked Tokyo to strike a morale blow for America.
Nick Jonas (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle) is Bruno Gaido, whose calmly philosophical personality and selfless heroism are brought to light on the screen.
Luke Evans (Hobbit trilogy, steam punk Three Musketeers, live action Beauty and the Beast) portrays Wade McClusky, decorated air group commander whose reasoned instincts and willingness to think outside the box became critical elements in the outcome of the Midway Battle.
All these actors brought to life real heroes, instilling their performances with the respect and dignity those historic military fighters deserve.
There are no last-minute saves or inevitable wins, no cliched characters though some cast members portray composites of real people, no politically correct soft pedaling, no feminist agenda. This is historically based on the raw courage of the men who went toe to toe with a ruthless aggressor Empire, with only a handful of planes and the few patched up aircraft carriers which survived the Pearl Harbor sneak attack. These are the men who truly were the Thin Line between the west coast of America and conflagration by the Japanese Empire. The soldiers at Midway were the only thing standing between us and a brutal autocracy for whom the Geneva Convention meant nothing, and which slaughtered a quarter of a million Chinese as retribution for the aid given by a few dozen Chinese to a single American Squadron.
These men, many young and barely out of their teens, stood like the Spartans at Thermopalaye, with their homes almost in sight against an overwhelming Imperial military which would have shown no quarter, no mercy, no diplomacy and no compromise for anything west of the Rocky Mountains. Had the Japanese won at Midway there was a distinct possibility that everything from Seattle to San Diego would have burned, the citizens butchered or enslaved by the merciless occupying Japanese force, as they had done in China. As such, these desperate and disparate courageous men threw themselves against this juggernaut, with photos of their families tucked into the control panel, in planes technologically years behind the Japanese, flying missions which were often tantamount to suicide, with little regard for their own personal safety.
Writer Wes Tooke and director Roland Emmerich (Independence Day, The Patriot) show the stark savagery with which America was confronted, bringing to unvarnished relief the raw dauntless valor required of these American heroes. Robbie Baumgartner's (Argo, Hunger Games) cinematography puts you in the flying seats with the pilots as they dive bomb in and out of the sky, challenging the limits of human endurance against incredible G-forces to survive the onslaught of anti-aircraft coming from the Japanese ships. The soundtrack by Harold Kloser and Thomas Wander (Independence Day, 2012) is inspirationally stirring and evocative not only of the selfless patriotism of the country behind this effort but evocative of the very plane propellers and stuttering guns which flew like under-weaponed knights against this massive Japanese dragon.
So go see this tribute to great American soldiers who stood between us and a sadistic pitiless foe, who risked and gave their lives, not only for the just, or the good, but following Christ's example, for every man, woman and child in America. Go see it, if for no other reason, than we owe it to their memory.

Inga hurried through the empty gray streets, her blowsy skirt caught by an unseen gust of wind. The sun had set and in half an hour soldiers would be grabbing her by the arm and demanding her papers. She gripped a parcel close to her chest and sped over the wet cobblestones. Soon the prison blocks rose before her, crowning Grandpa Nikolay's former grazing pastures. Up at the guardhouse a young soldier gazed at her, unsmiling. She waited, hoping for a faint glimmer of recognition, gold that had passed from her hands to his, in the soldier's hard blue eyes. An imperceptible nod later, she was able to slip through a crack in the iron gates. Inga ran to the stone headquarters building, where a line of women wearing threadbare linen hovered with their own parcels.
"Advance!" The line crawled forward, the women bowing their heads and submitting their packages to scrutiny.
"You," said a tall captain, as Inga approached. "What is that?" He pointed to her parcel.
She unwrapped the wax paper and laid the cake on the inspection table.
"Very pretty," remarked the captain dryly. "But I do not recognize it as one of your provincial foods. How did you manage to make a cake, with no sugar and cream since the war started?" Implied in his words was the cloud of a hard labor sentence from black market trading.
The Captain turned and muttered something in his own language to his men.
"It is too good for a rebel like him," he announced. "My men will eat it." He removed his knife from its sheath and prepared to cut the cake in half.
The Captain appeared to find the prospect of showing a hungry man food he could not eat sufficiently punishing. He waved her forward and Inga entered the open prison yard, where bearded men in soiled jumpsuits talked quietly with their visitors. Across the room a pair of dark green eyes found hers. A moment later she was in her husband's arms.
"No contact!" A soldier reached down and forced them apart. Her husband flushed but bit back his anger, looking instead at the cake.
"You've done well, love," he said to Inga. She looked at him carefully.
"Yes," said Andris. He glanced at the Captain, who had come up from behind and was observing them closely. A moment later, the Captain broke off a large hunk of cake, and ate it in front of them.
"Peasant food," he said. "But still too good for vermin." He gestured and a soldier whisked the cake away. Another seized Andris, who exchanged a last piercing glance with Inga before disappearing into the holding room.
The next day, Inga paced around the cottage, glancing out the window and twisting her hands. She saw a towheaded youth sprinting through their field, and ran out to meet him.
"Did it work?" she asked breathlessly.
"How did you manage to let him know, with all those soldiers watching?" asked the boy.
Inga was ready. She hoisted her small bag of belongings and followed the boy through the fields. As they trekked into the woods towards the camp, the birds and forest creatures seemed to echo their refrain of resistance.
This cheesecake can either be no-bake or bake - baking the filling produces a denser texture and some browning. If you decide to bake it, pour the filling over the raw crust and bake for 50 mins to 1 hour at 350 Fahrenheit, until the top has browned slightly. Place in refrigerator overnight to set.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix crust ingredients and press into parchment lined cheesecake pan.
Bake crust for 10-15 minutes until browned.
While crust is baking, blend cheesecake ingredients together using a food processor or blender. Season to taste.
Pour filling into baked crust and place in refrigerate overnight to set.
To make the glaze, mix arrowroot starch with honey, lemon juice, and water, and heat gently over stove top until the mixture thickens. Brush over top of berries.

Baby morals may reflect parents' sense of justice
Theresa Taboada/Press releases
Parents' attitudes toward justice influence their babies' neural responses to morally charged situations, new research shows.
The study from University of Chicago Professor Jean Decety and postdoctoral scholar Jason Cowell sheds new light on the mechanisms underlying the development of morality in very young children.
The neuroscientists found that strong individual differences in the perception of prosocial and antisocial behaviors are present in children as young as 12 to 24 months old—and that these differences are predicted by their parents' sensitivity to justice.
Moreover, parental cognitive empathy is linked to babies' willingness to share.
Additional research is warranted to figure out "what contributes to such early parent-child transmission of values," write the authors, who add that a complex combination of biological and socio-environmental influences are likely at play.
The 73 infants and toddlers who participated in the study watched brief animations depicting prosocial (e.g., sharing, helping) and antisocial (e.g., hitting, shoving) behavior while the authors monitored their eye movement and brain waves using electroencephalography, or EEG.
Following the animations, the developmental neuroscientists presented the babies with toys of the helping and hindering characters and observed their preferences based on reaching. The infants also played a sharing game.
Parents answered questionnaires about their children and themselves to assess their dispositional empathy and sensitivity to justice.
In the current study, all children exhibited larger brain waves in response to prosocial scenes than antisocial ones. In addition, the children were more motivated to look at "good" characters than "bad" ones, as measured by eye tracking.
Brain responses differ
These findings add to a growing body of knowledge demonstrating that children are able to distinguish between prosocial and antisocial behavior from a very early age.
The study also suggests that by one or two years of age, some children perceive the difference between prosocial and antisocial behavior more strongly than others.
Importantly, these neural differences also predicted infants' behavior—the children who reached toward the prosocial character toy also exhibited the greatest neural differentiation between prosocial and antisocial behavior when watching the character animations.
"This work demonstrates the potential of developmental social neuroscience to provide productive, new, and exciting directions for the investigation of moral development, by integrating neurobiology, behavior, and the social environment," says Decety, professor in psychology and psychiatry and director of the University of Chicago Child NeuroSuite.
A grant from the John Templeton Foundation supported the work, which appears in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

So ever since doing the Ideal vs. Real series, I've been looking at my home in a new way.
But I was taught that whenever you say something negative you must also say something positive. (even to myself! ;) ) So one thing that I do like in our home is some of the organisation we do with baskets. More specifically wicker baskets.
I'd like to share a few of these ideas with you in a post, and how each of them work for us. But before that I've got some Pinterest eye candy of how others use them!
This bench would be great in a conservatory for throws and magazines. Ours just end up on the arm of a chair or on top of a table. I would love for them to have a "place". This one is from Museum Selection.
How clever to use a wicker basket not only for storage, but also as a table! Ideal for lesser used items or sentimental things that you don't need easy access to. Found here.
I'm sure a lot of you avid "pinners" will have seen this smart idea. Pretty, functional and practical! Pinned from here.
Mostly because it's such a pretty room! But also because of the clever use of space. They've used all the space, and it looks pretty too. It all matches, plus there's plenty of space for toys, and easy tidy up for little ones to understand. But you know I'd go and put some labels on them! I wouldn't be able to help myself! From I village.
Oh and I'm really coveting that bedding for Izzy's room!


The second reading from the First Letter to the Corinthians begins to instruct us about the role of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believing community, the life of the Church, the bride of Christ. There are so many gifts given to benefit the community. Spiritual gifts are meant to benefit the believing community. Wisdom, knowledge, healing and faith are all wonderful gifts! Which newlywed would not like to see those gifts among the mounds of exquisitely decorated boxes of appliances, china ware, and silver table service at their wedding banquet? Through the Holy Spirit, God gives the bride—the Church—and the bridegroom— Christ—the gifts needed to sustain the beautiful union.

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) partnered with Media Action Nepal (MAN) to mark the International Day for Universal Access to Information (IDUAI) in Kathmandu 28 September 2018. The programme focussed on missing persons in the country and utilising Right to Information tools to know their whereabouts.
Andre Paquet, Head of the ICRC Mission, said the ICRC and the Nepal Red Cross Society have worked together with the families of missing persons and have advocated to ensure the authorities make all possible efforts to provide answers on the fate and whereabouts of missing people. "Initially 3,248 missing persons were reported to the ICRC and the Nepal Red Cross in relation to Nepal's internal armed conflict. At the moment, the list has 1,333 persons, who are still unaccounted for," said Mr Paquet. Speaking on the occasion, Krishna Hari Banskota, Chief Commissioner of the National Information Commission (NIC) – the constitutional body established in 2008 for the implementation of Right to Information (RTI) as per the provisions of the RTI Act – informed about the provisions of the Act that could be used to obtain information from government agencies.

Laxman Datt Pant, Chairperson, MAN, said the RTI can play a vital role to access information about persons who went missing during the armed conflict. Suman Adhikari from the Conflict Victims Common Platform (CVCP) and Ram Bhandari, Chairman of the National Network of Families of Disappeared and Missing Nepal (NEFAD), however, said that the state mechanisms have not been able to address the problems of conflict victims.
"We have shared our problems at various national and international forums, but all those attempts brought nothing as we still have no idea of the fate and whereabouts of our loved ones. I just hope we could use the right to information tool to get some information in this regard," said Sushila Chaudhary, whose elder sister is missing.
Members of families of missing persons, media personnel and representatives of the national society were present during the interaction, which was organised for the first time to mark International Day for Universal Access to Information.

The possibility of producing utilization of a specific scenario which is leasing save cash is clearly a foreign concept for the majority of tenants. These tenants often bemoan the reality that they need to lease a property as opposed to have a house simply because they feel just like not possessing your home is basically throwing money away each month. Regardless, it's not completely real. Whenever there are definitely advantageous resources to home ownership and equity that is construction may benefit financially by additionally leasing a apartment instead of purchasing a house.
A lot easier to homeownership whilst each mortgage that's monthly leaves your house proprietor step closer to possessing the house completely while it is definitely an undeniable fact that money spent each month on rent may well not get the tenant. Nonetheless, this isn't the entire story that's entire. Renters must also think of the money that they'll surely be in a place to save yearly for the purpose behind investing at a comfy house by surviving in house that's leasing today.
Some might be homeowners locate renting a flat that is license which is small to start out saving towards the objective of purchasing a house once the days slide by. Tenants that are ready to eliminate comfort today and remain to the flat potential that's littlest will in all probability be in a position to save yourself one of the most cash towards buying a property.
Generally the lease that's monthly a flat is based on a value per sq ft. This value can slightly vary greatly from 1 house to a different it really is in fact oftimes be substantially exactly the same in possessions in equal region which is basic. This implies apartments that are smaller in terms of square footage are far more likely to be significantly less costly overall. Therefore tenants that does feel much comfortable ordinarily and equipped to disseminate might opt to get a flat that's poor so that they may start saving more money due to their home buy.
Renters whom would you like to spend for purchasing the house whilst renting a flat ought to understand their rental that is monthly could be the element which could lessen them from having to pay while they lease. For instance action costs should really be looked at whenever quite very attentively a renter is hoping to save serious cash. Many properties that will completely be leasing a outfitted kitchen rendering it ideal for the tenant to get ready foods in the home in the place of going outside to digest. Tenants who decrease eating out dinner could find they are going to have the ability to conserve a sum that is large of any year.
Likewise tenants that are spending an amount that's surplus of superfluous things may have trouble saving for a home whilst renting a flat. Assessing all cost which exist are monthly aid the tenant to determine where you have the prospect of cost economies. Making changes like such as for example financial liability consolidation could be one approach to cut back bills being monthly that this can be really not the alternative that's only. Renters make other modifications like such as for instance canceling subscriptions to film that's premium, reducing mobile phone plans to include of only the number of mins used on a monthly basis and making modifications to strategies to guide to a overall cost economies. Changes to insurance policy programs might consist of things like receiving your renter's and automobile insurance insured by the supplier that's same. Many suppliers deliver discounted solutions to tenants whom can package their services. A lot of the changes that are small help enabling a tenant to conserve cash for an ageless house buy later on.


The effort by the Farm Bureau, the largest Texas-based insurer, was a complicated notion that might have sounded innocuous but carried concrete implications for Texas homeowners.
The insurer asked the Texas Department of Insurance to allow it to offer lower rates to homeowners who agree to settle disputes through a mandatory mediation-arbitration process, forgoing their right to settle matters in court.
Jerry Hagins, a department spokesman, confirmed Thursday that the Farm Bureau had withdrawn its endorsement of the policy. The department closed the filing on Wednesday, he said.
Gene Hall, a Texas Farm Bureau spokesman, declined to comment, beyond to confirm that the proposal was dead.
Arbitration is a way to settle disputes outside of the legal system. Arbitrators, often selected by companies involved in disputes, typically issue swift rulings. Unlike lawsuits, the proceedings are private and the outcome cannot be appealed. Its use has spread nationwide. Tens of millions of Americans use financial products or services subject to such clauses, according to the U. S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
For now, however, Texas homeowners' insurance policies do not include such provisions.
The state has approved a few mandatory arbitration policies in the commercial realm, but that practice is not widespread for insurers here.
Presiding over a public meeting in July, Texas Insurance Commissioner David Mattax saw consumer advocates and insurance industry spar over whether mandatory arbitration of homeowners would fit within the spirit of Texas law.
Floating the proposal, Farm Bureau officials suggested that adding the option would curb a surge in costly lawsuits that have pushed up homeowners' premiums in South Texas and particularly storm-prone Gulf Coast counties. And it emphasized the voluntary nature of the specific plan it was pushing. Policyholders could have still opted out, while forgoing the discount.
But opponents argued that approving mandatory arbitration plans would stack the deck against consumers, who may not understand the consequences of giving up their right to sue. The lawyer-backed consumer group Texas Watch, the Texas Office of Public Insurance Counsel and other critics worried that that approving the Farm Bureau proposal would prompt other insurers to follow their lead.
"Texas homeowners will retain their constitutional rights and not fall prey to a flawed process that often rewards the powerful at the expense of justice, Ware Wendell, executive director of Texas Watch, said in an email.


WILLEMSTAD – It will take at least a year before the new airline AVA Curacao is in the air. This is according to the Minister of Traffic and Transportation, Earl Balborda. "The airline has announced its flight plans and is in the pre application stage. They still have to go through the formal process," Balborda said during the weekly press conference of the Council of Ministers.
The approval process takes at least one year time.
The President of AVA Curacao did not want to comment on the Minister's declaration.

After cleansing your hair, be sure to dry your hair carefully. It is best to blot your hair with a towel after getting out of the shower. Your hair is very fragile when wet and too much friction could cause hair strands to break or fall out. Our stylists at Illusions hair salon in Colorado Springs suggest letting your hair air dry as often as possible as this can be very beneficial to the health of your hair.
If you do blow dry your hair it is important to know the proper techniques to leave your hair looking shiny and sleek. When blow drying your hair, it is best to use heat protect-ant products. This gives your hair optimum protection, adds body to fine, limp hair and helps to control frizz. You should avoid using the blow dryer at full speed or too hot. This will dry out hair strands and cause your hair to lose that silky finish. It is best to alternate with hot and cold air settings. Heat from the blow dryer opens up the cuticle, finishing with a blast of cold air will help seal the cuticle.
Most people worry about overheating an individual section, and tend to shake the blow dryer back and forth. Instead, when blow drying your hair, it is best to hold the nozzle at least six inches away, and point the air stream downward. This technique will give your hair a smoother style and keep your hair from tangling.

Q: How to clone form elements with auto increamented id to all elements I have a form under a  . I want to clone this and append dynamically in another  and so on dynamically. Also I need to assign auto incremented id to all form elements too. Apart from pure javascript I can not use any jQuery or any other library.
Here is my HTML

    <input type="text" id="fieldName" />

        <select name="fieldType" id="fieldType">
            <option value="string">String</option>
        </select>

    <input type="radio" id="mandatory" name="mandatory" value="true" /><input type="radio" id="mandatory" name="mandatory" value="false" />
    Delete Button

Here is my JavaScript
var i = 0;

this.view.findById("start").addEventHandler("click", function () {
    var original = document.getElementById('repeat');
    var clone = original.cloneNode(true);
    original.parentNode.appendChild(clone);
})

Presently I can cloned the form elements in
 dynamically and so on, but unable to assign auto incremented id to input box and select box . Also unable to assign auto incremented name to the radio buttons dynamically

A: You can change Id or another attribute as you want.
but for your code my solution is using querySelectorAll to get element and change it's Id, something like below code, it is tested and works nice:
Based on this HTML design code and JS function:

function MakeElementsWithDifferentId() {
        for (var i = 1; i < 10; i++) {
             var original = document.getElementById('repeat');
             var clone = original.cloneNode(true);
             clone.id="repeat"+i;
             clone.querySelectorAll('[id="fieldName"]')[0].id ="fieldName"+i;
             clone.querySelectorAll('[id="fieldType"]')[0].id ="fieldType"+i;
             clone.querySelectorAll('[id="mandatory"]')[0].id ="mandatory"+i;
             clone.children[2].children[0].name="mandatoryName"+i; //To change the radio name also
             original.parentNode.appendChild(clone);
        }
    }
    MakeElementsWithDifferentId();

            <input type="text" id="fieldName" />

                <select name="fieldType" id="fieldType">
                    <option value="string">String</option>
                </select>

            <input type="radio" id="mandatory" name="mandatory" value="true" />
            Delete Button

the MakeElementsWithDifferentId() function make 10 batch elements with different Ids.
the JSFiddle Test
after run you can right click on element that you want and see the Id by inspect element.
Note:
Instead of clone.querySelectorAll('[id="fieldName"]')[0] it's better to get element by querySelector like clone.querySelector('[id="fieldName"]')
Hope will help you.
