Q: Disable and enable parent scroll based on recycler view visibility I have an Edittext. When the user clicks on it, I show up suggestions in a recycler view based on the keyword typed. The parent view containing the edittext (alongwith other items) is scrollable. I want the parent scrolling to be disabled when the recycler view is visible, and the enable again when the recycler view is invisible.
    <ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/parent_scroll_view"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<EditText
..
..
..
..
</EditText

    <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
    android:id="@+id/mentions_grid"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<ScrollView>

When the recycler view is visible as a dropdown of the edittext, how to disable the main parent scrollview.?

A: try this way
import android.content.Context;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.widget.ScrollView;

 public class MyScrollView extends ScrollView {

private boolean enableScrolling = true;

public boolean isEnableScrolling() {
    return enableScrolling;
}

public void setEnableScrolling(boolean enableScrolling) {
    this.enableScrolling = enableScrolling;
}

public MyScrollView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
    super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}

public MyScrollView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
}

public MyScrollView(Context context) {
    super(context);
}

@Override
public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {

    if (isEnableScrolling()) {
        return super.onInterceptTouchEvent(ev);
    } else {
        return false;
    }
}
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
   if (isEnableScrolling()) {
        return super.onTouchEvent(ev);
   } else {
       return false;
   }
 }
 }

and make xml like this
<yourpackage.MyScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/parent_scroll_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<EditText

..
   ..
   ..
   ..

</yourpackage.MyScrollView>

<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="@+id/mentions_grid"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

and as per your requirement you can enable or disable your scroll
like this
MyScrollView myScrollView = (MyScrollView) findViewById(R.id.myScroll);
if(yourrecyclerview adapter item count > 0)//or you can make condition like if(yourrecyclerview.isShown())
{
   myScrollView.setEnableScrolling(false);
}else
{
    myScrollView.setEnableScrolling(true);
}

Congratulations to the Under 12 girls Gaelic football team from Navan O' Mahony's who won the Meath Division 1 Cup at the weekend, Our school was once more represented on the team by Annie & Rebecca. They beat a gallant St Colmcille's team in a very close final. The girls brought the cup into the school to show to the classes and to share with their coaches Ms Leahy and Ms Hogan who both play with Navan O' Mahony's. We also had girls from our school team playing with Simonstown and Walterstown in other Under 12 Divisional Finals. We encourage all our pupils to participate in team sports.


Decade ago in the year 1996, born of brimstone womb, Twilight Ophera saw the first glimpse of dawnlight. In spring 1997 they released their first promotional piece of paradox craft which secured them deal with the Cacophonous Records. The covenant was respected with the release of "Shadows Embrace the Dark", debut cut in innocent flesh of the world. With this album they seized the place in forefront of new raising tide of Dark Metal.
The fall through sulphur spiral continued with the second sin, "Midnight Horror", committed in the year of the prophet, 1999. What followed was the age of struggle, as old members were lost and the bands record label had their own share of problems, finally deciding to drop all their artists leaving Twilight Ophera free to search for new record contract. Having lost their drummer, Timo Kollin, in shrouded circumstances, the band faced another blow after blow as both bass player Jani and the singer Sauli Karkkunen (RIP) decided to depart for other sinuous paths in life's cursed masquerade.
recorded, and the new deal signed with Low Frequency Records for two liturgies of damnation. It was the "The End of Halcyon Age" as their third album declared, conceived in tarnation flames of summer 2003 with the help of two new cultists, drummer Janne Ojala and bass player Jussi Heikkinen. One era passed as the founding member Mikko Kaipainen departed the crusade in the fall of 2005.
This year humanity shall fall into lowest depths as Twilight Ophera has joined forces with the Order of the Sanguine Diadem to create the threnody of man, "Descension". The fourth madness shall be released worldwide under the banner of Low Frequency Records, featuring 10 twisted sermons like never been heard conquering the senses of mortal men.

Q: Using Powershell in an ASP.NET application deployed to an IIS server I'm developing a test project in ASP.NET MVC, where Im using System.Management.Automation to execute some PowerShell cmdlets.
Some of the cmdlets are from the Azure Powershell module.
The code is working fine when I run it from Visual Studio. But when I Published the website to IIS the some cmdlets and these scripts don't work.
Example, see the comments before:
    var shell = PowerShell.Create();
    var script1 = "Get-AzureSubscription | Out-String"; // cant execute the cmdlet
    var script2 = "C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\App1\\Scripts\\test.ps1"; //Cant execute the script.
    var script3 = "Get-Date"; //Work fine
    try
    {
     shell.Commands.AddScript(script); // here insert the script.
     Collection<PSObject> results = shell.Invoke();
     //Search for errors, if some error is found redirect to an Error page.
        if (shell.Streams.Error.Count > 0)
        {
         foreach (ErrorRecord err in shell.Streams.Error)
         {
          string error = err.ToString();
          TempData["pserror"] = error;
          return RedirectToAction("Powershellerror");
         }
        }
         else
          if (results.Count > 0)
          {
           foreach (var psObject in results)
           {
            string result2 = psObject.ToString();
            TempData["psoutput"] = result2;
            return RedirectToAction("PowershellOutput");
           }
          }

Both, script1 and script2 give this error:

The term 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\App1\Scripts\test.ps1' is not recognized
  as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.
  Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that
  the path is correct and try again.

and

The term 'Get-AzureSubscription' is not recognized as the name of a
  cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling
  of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is
  correct and try again.

What could be??? Something is missing in the IIS setup?

A: You probably need to import the Azure module, try as suggested here:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/6267517/1183475
var ps = PowerShell.Create(myRS);
ps.Commands.AddCommand("Import-Module").AddArgument(@"g:\...\PowerDbg.psm1")
ps.Invoke()

I don't have the Azure PS tools installed on this machine, but the path should be:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Azure\PowerShell\Azure\Azure.psd1

The Yellowstone River running through Paradise Valley, Montana.
Volume 40, No.2, Winter 2021
Bryan Leonard
This special edition of PERC Reports uses the hit television show "Yellowstone's" portrayals of the Rocky Mountain West to examine real-world western issues. Explore the full issue here.
In the series premiere of "Yellowstone," bankers and land developers sit in a dimly lit conference room above downtown Bozeman, discussing their plans for a development in the nearby Paradise Valley. As the bankers express skepticism at the legality of damming the Yellowstone River to supply water and power to the subdivision, developer Dan Jenkins disagrees. "On our land, it's our river," he declares. "This isn't California, gentlemen. This is Montana. We can do whatever we want."
Later in the episode, the Wild West ethos is on full display when the landowner upstream of the proposed subdivision—John Dutton, of the eponymous Yellowstone Dutton Ranch—dynamites an entire canyon on his land to reroute the river away from the development.
The juxtaposition of California and Montana no doubt refers to the significant differences in the stringency and complexity of environmental regulations between the two states. It also seems to suggest a wide latitude for frontier justice in the various resource conflicts that arise in "Yellowstone."

While it is true that Montana is less heavily regulated than California, it is hardly the Wild West when it comes to natural resources like water. In Montana and throughout the American West, property rights determine who can use water, how much, and under what conditions. Hence, even a light regulatory touch does not imply that there are no rules governing resource use.
In fact, neither Jenkins's assertion that land ownership determines water ownership, nor the Duttons' diversion via dynamite, are in line with Montana water law—or any western state for that matter. Although such scenes may be far-fetched today, historical water conflicts across the West have been as dramatic, and sometimes as violent, as the show's portrayal.
'First in Time, First in Right'
Today, Montana uses a water right system known as prior appropriation, common across western states. The system emerged in the 19th century to address conflicts over scarce water resources that accompanied settler expansion into the West.
Following the same property right allocation practices used for western agricultural land and hard rock minerals, prior appropriation rights to water are assigned through first possession, or "first in time, first in right." Water rights are granted to a fixed quantity or flow of water for diversion from a stream, based on the date of the original claim. Those with the earliest claims, or senior rights, have the highest priority. Subsequent claimants have lower priority, or junior rights. Diversions are accommodated by rank so long as there is sufficient stream flow. During drought, water is progressively rationed by priority of right, meaning junior diversions may be halted in favor of more senior rights.
While it is true that Montana is less heavily regulated than California, it is hardly the Wild West when it comes to natural resources like water. In Montana and throughout the American West, property rights determine who can use water, how much, and under what conditions.
Colorado was one of the first states to articulate the prior appropriation doctrine, thanks to events strikingly similar to the first episode of "Yellowstone," albeit 150 years earlier. In 1863, the Left Hand Ditch Company constructed a dam and a ditch to divert water from St. Vrain Creek near Boulder, Colorado, into Left Hand Creek. Several years later, during a period of low flow, Reuben Coffin and other water users from St. Vrain Creek destroyed some of the diversion works, leaving armed men at the site to ensure water flowed to their farms.
In the resulting court case, Coffin v. Left Hand Ditch Co., the Colorado Supreme Court ruled in favor of the company because it had diverted water and put it to productive use prior to Coffin and his co-conspirators.
Given the system of seniority used to define water rights in Montana, it seems unlikely that the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch—supposedly the first in Paradise Valley—would face any real threats from incumbent water users, even developers from California. As one of the first water users in the valley, the Dutton Ranch would likely hold the most senior water rights.
A common misperception in western water rights is that land and water are connected. While this is true in the eastern states, the prior appropriation doctrine severs water and land. A developer has no claim to water that belongs to a senior right holder, even if it flows through his land.
Protected by seniority and a secure property right, the fight for water in "Yellowstone" would likely play out more like the conflicts over land depicted in the show, with the Duttons holding an asset that developers would have to pay dearly to acquire. One wrinkle would be that appropriative rights require that water be put to a designated beneficial use, such as watering cattle or crops, supplying residences or industry, or, in Montana, preserving instream flows to protect ecosystems.

Beneficial use laws allowed state governments to limit speculation and curtail excesses of water use. While the Duttons' use of water for ranching would meet such a definition, the privileges endowed by their right to water are not unlimited. Montana, and all western states, also require water users to cause no injury to third parties, which are typically other water right holders. When the Duttons dynamited and diverted "their" stream, they almost certainly harmed other water right holders dependent upon the same source.
When water is diverted for agriculture and ranching, as little as 50 percent of senior diversions are consumed by plants or evaporation, and remaining water flows back to the stream or percolates to be available for subsequent users. During times of drought, when natural stream volumes are diminished, junior appropriators are especially dependent upon these return flows.
If a right holder can mitigate damage to third parties, however, water rights can be moved far away from the stream itself. Early in the 20th century, the City of Los Angeles diverted the entire Owens River more than 200 miles to augment the growing city's water supply. Angry local residents dynamited the diversion works several times, but Los Angeles has retained the water rights, and its diversion, to this day.

In the real Paradise Valley, the modern equivalent of bygone conflicts has emerged. Mill Creek, a tributary to the Yellowstone River, provides water for valley irrigators and a key spawning ground for trout. When the creek went dry, Trout Unlimited filed legal objections to the water rights of irrigators, essentially claiming they were taking more water than legally allowed.
While that dispute is still playing out, appropriative rights have helped resolve other water conflicts in Paradise Valley. Farther up the valley, diverters on Big Creek entered into an agreement to curtail some of their diversions to keep water in the stream in exchange for payment. Without well-defined and transferable rights to water, such an agreement would not be possible.
Orderly Allocation
Appropriative rights create a basis for water markets and security for investment in water-delivery infrastructure, agriculture, and other endeavors. Countries like the United States, Chile, and Australia have used markets to allocate scarce water among users and create economic gains by allowing users to voluntarily transfer water. In opening the option for water right holders—mostly irrigators—to sell conserved water, markets create incentives for investment in conservation without subsidies.
Allowing irrigators to sell water still requires careful planning to avoid unanticipated issues. Applications for transferring rights are filed with the relevant state regulatory agency for approval. The applicant specifies the location and amount of water, duration of the contract, timing of the exchange, type of water right involved, consumptive use, and possibly hydraulic details or other legal information.
Water markets can also be used to accommodate new demands and uses for water. In many settings, surface water has value as instream flow, whether for ecosystem support, pollution abatement, or the provision of recreation. Governments and non-governmental organizations can purchase instream flow water rights to rewater riparian ecosystems, protect fish species, or provide ecologically beneficial flow regimes.
Appropriative water rights have been modified over time in most western states to allow for instream flows. As seen in the trout disputes in the real Paradise Valley, controversy may persist. When water remains instream, it is available for other right holders, junior and senior alike, to extract. The technical challenge of determining who has a right to which water requires additional costs for measurement and enforcement.
In reality, water used by John Dutton (right) would be protected by seniority and a secure property right, meaning Dan Jenkins (left) and his team of developers would have to pay dearly to acquire it. ©Paramount Network
Still, such problems are being overcome. In some states, such as Oregon, instream market activity is high. Expanding the definition of a water market to include these uses allows all water users to see the true opportunity cost of water use, whether the highest-value use is for agricultural, municipal, or environmental purposes.
Significant scarcity in many areas of the West makes the conflicts over water intense. In the Wild West, such conflict led to violence. But today, armed water insurrections have been replaced by court fights and water right sales.
Appropriative rights and their associated markets provide room for bargaining, negotiation, and a more orderly allocation of water—hardly the Wild West depicted in "Yellowstone." Montana's limited regulatory approach might seem like carte blanche to the California developers in the show, but the reality is that the state's surface water is all "spoken for" in the sense that it is fully appropriated. Far from being able to "do whatever they want," real-world developers around Bozeman and elsewhere in Montana must work within the existing system of property rights and markets to acquire water to support their projects.

To Circumcise or Not to Circumcise?
Mark Berman Opposing Views
Circumcising a baby boy used to be a no-brainer -- there was no decision for parents to make because virtually everybody did it. But over the past couple of decades, as studies showed that circumcision may not be the best thing after all, it became an extremely difficult decision for the parents of newborn boys.
Check out the OpposingViews debate on circumcision
Lee Rose Emery, a Los Angeles mother who writes the award winning blog LACityMom, was one of millions of parents who had to make the decision for her son. In a column for CNN.com, she writes:
The most vexing parenting decision my husband and I have faced thus far was whether to circumcise our son.
..my mind flashed to my liberal arts college's Women's Studies classes' literature about female circumcision being used in some countries for the precise reason of decreasing sexual pleasure. We would never in a million years consider circumcising a girl, so why should we do so to our son? We chose not to.
She thought they did the right thing, until recently when she was bathing her son, who is now five years old:
I was thrown into a bubbly contemplative haze as he looked down at himself and shouted, "I hate my foreskin!" This was certainly not a sentence I ever imagined coming out of his mouth, but there it was. (And yes, he knows the actual word.)
He slid the skin on top of his penis to make himself appear circumcised. Had we made the wrong decision?
In rethinking her decision, Emery spoke with some of her friends who had to make the same decision. Some regretted circumcising their boys, others were happy with their decision.
Confronting our circumcision decision over and over has been humbling. My one conclusion: In parenting, and in life, there is never a clear answer. Most big decisions are based in faith, be it religious faith or faith in ourselves.
If we have either of those as parents, then no matter which way the trend swings, or what the studies prove over time, we can, at the very least, live with the knowledge that we did what we thought was the best for our children.

The idea of a new year is full of opportunity. The new year is an opportune time to start over. A new calendar gives reason to reset, and simply beginning again with no explanation needed.
On a global level, the human race collectively resolves to new behaviors, habits and activities.
For example, in January, gym memberships typically flourish and for the first 30 days or so, people are actually showing up to work out.
Sales of planners are at an all-time high and those who have made plans actually follow through.
According to Forbes Magazine, only a dwindling 8% of people achieve their resolutions this year.
US News reports that 80% of resolutions fail by February.
Will you be amongst the 80% that quit in February and the 92% that fizzle out sometime after the novelty wears off?
Or will you be wildly successful this year?
Rather than forcing yourself to follow through, consider that where you begin matters.
Many times, however, we do not begin from a place of sufficiency, but rather, from a place of lack. The majority of us resolve to change our life from the validation of what we see as acceptable in society.
We want to lose weight to look good. We want to get a promotion to elevate our status at the work place. We acquire additional training to build our credentials.
There is nothing wrong with goal setting and ambition. After all, without having a destination, and a charted course, many may drift about and never set anything in motion.
A powerful 3 step inside out practice to New Year's resolutions will inspire follow through for the goals you set this year. Even when the going my gets tough and you want to give up, this practice will help you remember how amazing you truly are, and that you can accomplish anything you set out to do, if it comes from the right place.
For every resolve, apply these three steps in your process: (1) Take inventory and begin with sufficiency, (2) Recognize the miracle (3) Apply the super power of gratitude.
When we set our goals and intentions for this new year, we might consider beginning anew from a different place, from a mindset of sufficiency rather than lack.
Lack might be a very solid foundation to desire for many, if not all of us. It signals to us that we are not where we want to be, and this deficiency leaks into our subconscious, creating a false identity that we adopt as though it is Truth.
This false identity fosters insufficiency in many levels, tricking us into thinking we are not enough. So then, we must strive to work harder, be more, do more and achieve more.
These insidious subconscious mantras rule our lives from the inside out and our waking consciousness has no clue but to follow the beat of the ego's drum.
Our behaviors are the drones to our motivations and when we highly value society's opinions of us, we lose sight of the miracle that we are.
Whether it is weight loss, making money or otherwise, it is an enlightening practice to look deeper at our motivations. Doing so helps us begin to identify the energy behind the desire so that we actually stick with our resolutions and achieve our goals.
Instead of coming from a place of lack and want, we might begin with taking inventory of what we have. Knowing what we have enables us to go from taking our blessings for granted to a living each day of life with awe.
I've pointed out just a few below to get you started.
Our amazing bodies are the physical vessels that support our living. Pause for a moment and account for the miracle of life - of birth, of standing, of sitting, of speech, of the wonder of your musculoskeletal system! Along with muscles, our immune, nervous and digestive systems work in perfect concert to support our living.
Think about the many ways your body supports you in your activities of daily living.
How many times have you recovered after getting sick?
How many ways can you see the amazing human body work for you that you have taken for granted?
Name the totally amazing ways your body supports your life?
The fact that we have mad skills makes us employable! Our skills make us feel as though we have value - that we are valuable. Truth be told, our skills do not make us valuable. We are inherently of great value, just as we are.
What we do for a living in life is not the value of our life, it is merely a set of skills that we have applied to functioning at a task: our job.
However, our many talents, intuitive and learned, have given us so many memories of challenges, achievements and accomplishments. Our educational and skilled experiences have landed us in our current occupation.
Take a moment to remember where you were when you had your first job, and where you are today. Think about the trials and tribulations you have undergone to get to where you are.
What three things are turning points for you in your career?
Bring a family member to mind. Think about your relationship with them (no matter if you are currently irked (or otherwise irritated) by them or not.
How many times has this person challenged you, perhaps triggered you, and therefore, has helped you grow?
How many times has this person made you feel like the hero, or villain, or victim in life?
How has this person expressed their love and inspired you to love?
Go through this process and take inventory with every person in your family, especially if your resolutions have to do with family (or a family member) this year.
3. Apply the Super Power: GRATITUDE.
With the inventory you have made, give thanks. Giving thanks is a practice that turns what we have into enough. This practice will lead you into looking closer at abundance, rather than seeing lack and deficiency in your life.
Recognizing sufficiency and that you truly are a valid, and legitimate inhabitant of planet earth will remind you of your birth right - that you are here to live and embrace the richness that is life itself.
For every resolution, write down three things you are grateful for.
1. I am grateful for the many ways my body has supported me throughout my life.
2. I am grateful I can walk (see, hear, have functioning of fine motor skills).
3. I am grateful for my strong bones that support my frame.
...and then, in your own way, in your own time, give thanks.
Say THANK YOU to your amazing body for supporting your life. To each and every cell in your body give thanks.
If each cell in your body has a consciousness, they would be happier and more joyful. If spoken to with kindness and treated with benevolence, each individual cell would flourish from wholeness, rather than scrapping by from scarcity and lack. In turn, your whole body will be healthier and happier.
Shift the energy from which your resolutions come and give thanks. Beginning this year with sufficiency by thanksgiving for the abundance that flourishes in your life, will support you, shift your mindset and your entire way of living from lack to abundance, from insufficiency to overflow. This embrace of your personal power will empower you to allow life to flow easily through you, and as you as you live another fantastic 525,600 minutes of 2018.
What are your resolutions this year? What are you thankful for? What about this practice resonates most for you? What seems most challenging? Did you accomplish your resolutions for last year?

Mauritânia Cesariense era uma província do Império Romano localizada no noroeste do norte da África, onde hoje está a Argélia. Sua capital era Cesareia (e daí o nome Cesariense), a moderna Cherchell.

História
No , o imperador romano Cláudio dividiu a província romana mais ocidental na África, chamada apenas de Mauritânia ("terra dos mauros", que também é a origem do nome "mouros") em Mauritânia Tingitana e Mauritânia Cesariense.

Na época de Diocleciano (r. 284-305) e de Constantino (r. 306-337), a Cesariense foi colocada sob a jurisdição da recém-criada Diocese da África, parte da Prefeitura pretoriana da Itália e África, enquanto que a Tingitana, por motivos logísticos, tornou-se um posto avançado da Diocese da Hispânia, parte da Prefeitura das Gálias. Cesareia era um grande centro do judaísmo antes de 330 enquanto Sítifis (moderna Sétif) era um dos centros do culto militar de Mitras. O cristianismo se espalhou pela região durante os séculos IV e V.

Quando Diocleciano criou a Tetrarquia, a parte mais oriental da província foi destacada para formar uma outra menor chamada Mauritânia Sitifense (no território do moderno estado de Marrocos), com capital na cidade interiorana de Sítifis e com um importante porto em Saldas (moderna Bugia).

Na classe dominante, o cristianismo trinitário foi substituído pelo arianismo com a chegada do povo germânico dos vândalos, que conquistou a região e estabeleceu o Reino Vândalo em 430 depois de cruzar o estreito de Gibraltar. Eles foram, por sua vez, conquistados pelos exércitos bizantinos por volta de 533, mas a maior parte da Mauritânia Cesariense permaneceu sob o controle de governantes mouros locais, como Mastigas, e a não foi até as décadas de 560 e 570 que o controle bizantino se estabeleceu sobre a região interior.

O imperador Maurício, em algum momento entre 585 e 590, criou o Exarcado de Cartago e, na nova configuração, a Mauritânia Cesariense e a Mauritânia Sitifense foram novamente fundidas para formar a nova Mauritânia Prima.

Economia e legado
Os principais produtos exportados da Mauritânia Cesariense eram os corantes púrpuras e madeiras raras. Além disso, os amazigues (berberes) e os mauros (mauri) eram muito estimados pelos romanos como soldados ou como parte da cavalaria ligeira. Nasceram na região também o imperador Macrino e um dos melhores generais de Trajano, Lúsio Quieto.

An incident packed second half ended with The Crows more than deservedly leaving Cressing Road with a draw against their Conference South opponents.
The first half was a continuation from Tuesday's hard-working display against Kings Lynn, with Royston pressing Braintree hard, giving then very little time on the ball and not a sniff of Joe Welch's goal. Royston also struggled to penetrate the home defence but they did produce the one moment of quality that saw them go into the half time interval ahead. This came in the 23rd minute when Adam Marriott received the ball in the Braintree box and managed to create half a yard for himself to cut the ball back from the byline and leave the arriving Scott Bridges a simple tap in.
The second half was a much more open affair as both attacking units worked the defences harder, Marriott saw an early shot well saved by home custodian Nathan McDonald and Jack Vasey headed just over.
Braintree were now getting more into the match and scored an equaliser in the 52nd minute when good work from Billy Crook set up substitute Luke Allen for an easy finish. Eight minutes later Braintree had turned the tie around as Karl Oliyide's powerful run down the right, set up Phil Roberts, whose effort rebounded off the post and back to Oliyide for him to finish and reward him the goal is earlier play merited.
To Royston's great credit the goals did not affect their performance and they were back in the tie on 67 minutes as Marriott wriggled free and fired the ball across McDonald into the bottom corner for a well-deserved equaliser. The good work was nearly undone though, as almost instantly Tyler Campbell was presented with an easy chance to gain back the lead for Braintree, but he skyed his effort well over the bar when it looked easier to score.
Royston's task was made harder in the 83rd minute when full back Romelle Alomenu received two yellow cards in very quick succession to leave the Crows with 10 men. The 10 men were comfortably holding out for the draw until the 92nd minute, when a long ball left Reece Grant in the clear with what looked a clear-cut opportunity to win the game. However, a magnificently timed tackle by the fast recovering Adam Murray snuffed out the opportunity. Almost immediately the referee brought the game to an end, bemusing players and the crowd alike, having only played 90 seconds of the minimum of three minutes he had indicated.


Road traffic is by large the transport sector that contributes the most to global warming. Aviation has the second largest warming effect, while shipping has a net cooling effect on the earth's climate, according to a study published recently.
The study, "Climate forcing from the transport sectors", is the first comprehensive analysis of the climate effect from the transport sector as a whole on a global scale. Breaking down the transport sector to four subsectors: road transport, aviation, rail, and shipping, five researchers at CICERO have calculated each subsector's contribution to global warming. The researchers have looked at the radiative forcing (RF) caused by transport emissions. The RF describes the warming effect in the unit Watt per square meter (W/m2).
The study that was published in the prestigious publication, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), concludes that since preindustrial times, 15% of the RF caused by man-made CO2-emissions have come from the transport sector. The study also looks at other emissions. For ozon (O3), transport can be blamed for ca 30% of the forcing caused by man-made emissions.
Including all gasses, not just CO2, and looking at the effect today's road emissions has on future climate, the share is even larger: the road emissions of today will constitute three- fourth of the warming caused by transport over the next hundred years.
For shipping, the picture is more complicated. Until today, shipping has had a cooling effect on climate. This is because shipping emits large portions of the gasses SO2 and NOx, which both have cooling effects. However, although these two gases, until now, have given the shipping industry a cooling effect, this effect will diminish after a while, as the gases don't live long in the atmosphere. After a few decades, the long-lived CO2 will dominate, giving shipping a warming effect in the long run.
The net cooling effect from shipping does not imply that shipping emissions don't need to be cut back on. Both SO2 and NOx have other impacts that damage the environment.
A remark can be made here saying that SO2 and NOx are not covered by the Kyoto Protocol; neither is black carbon (soot). Therefore, the Protocol is too narrow to capture the real climate effect of transport emissions, particularly for the shipping sector.
Following road transport, aviation is the second largest transport contributor to global warming. The reason that road transport tops the list is mainly the amount of vehicles on the roads and the smaller cooling effect from their emissions. The researchers have not yet looked at emissions per kilometre or per person at a certain distance using different transport modes.
Also, aviation has a strong contribution to global warming. However, the historical contribution from aviation emissions to global warming is more than doubled by the contribution from road emissions. Over the next 100 years, today's road emissions will have a climate effect that is four times higher than the climate effect from today's aviation emissions.
The warming effect by rail emissions is very small, almost not noticable at all, compared to the effects from road transport and aviation.
In general, the transport sector's contribution to global warming will be continously high in the future. The current emissions from transport are responsible for approximately 16% of the net radiative forcing over the next 100 years. The dominating contributor to this warming is CO2, followed by tropospheric O3.

Fox Guest Calls Michelle Obama's Discussion Of American Race Relations "Race-Baiting" And Says It Was "Beneath Her"
Wright: Michelle Obama Turned The "Opportunity ... To Talk Joyfully About Being The First Black Family To Occupy The White House ... Into Racial Animosity"
From the July 26 edition of Fox Business' Varney & Co.:
STUART VARNEY (HOST): Crystal Wright is with us. She is the author of the book Con Job. What do you make of this? The Democrats featuring the bereaved mothers of youngsters killed by police but not any relatives of police officers killed in the line of duty. What do you make of this?
CRYSTAL WRIGHT: It's a classic example of what Democrats do best and what I write about in my book, Con Job. They have been creating their political power and winning votes off fomenting racial division for more than half a century. And I think we saw last night with Michelle Obama's speech about how the White House was built by slaves and, oh, yeah, what she left out of her speech, her race-baiting speech, was that the first black president lives in the White House built by slaves, and he is every day for the last seven and a half years has created racial animus between Americans. So it was just, this is what they do best. This is the con they do every four years to win black votes. So I'm not surprised that tonight we'll have part deux of, oh, race in America, it's just so bad, right?
VARNEY: OK, hold on a second. Our viewers may not have seen Michelle Obama's speech last night. They may not have seen your reference to the White House being built by slaves. Let me roll that tape so our viewers can understand what we're talking about. Roll it, please.
[BEGIN VIDEO]
MICHELLE OBAMA: The story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of servitude, the sting of segregation, but who kept on striving and hoping and doing what needed to be done so that today I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves.
[END VIDEO]
VARNEY: I don't know why the Democrats want to do this in such a prevalent fashion throughout their convention because the black vote is pretty solidly behind the Democrats already, isn't it?
WRIGHT: Well, it is. But what was so astonishing is Michelle Obama had an opportunity last night to talk joyfully about being the first black family to occupy the White House, what a joy that was. Instead, she turns that joy into racial animosity over and over again. And the reality is that, while her children are outside playing on the White House lawn -- and don't get me wrong, Stuart, I think it's a wonderful thing that we finally checked the box and elected a black president. But that black president has done nothing in the last seven and a half years to heal racial relations. And I don't think one person can do that. But Barack Obama ran on a promise of hope and change, a promise of bringing the races together. And what she did last night, I think, while she had a well-crafted speech, it was beneath her. She talked about her intelligent, beautiful daughters, right? And this is the legacy you want to leave behind, that it's always about race with you guys? You know? And if anything, he has always taken the side of blacks over whites. He did that in Dallas at the memorial for the five slain police officers, and it's just reprehensible for a president to want to divide the races for political party -- for political power -- than bring them together.

The Little Ranting Reptile and Other Stories....: Is this a joke?
A few days back I read a news headline in Times of India. Forgot to post it that day.
"Yahoo! India lays off more people."
I totally fail to understand why some people losing jobs is a good news :P.
Sad. Either way - Yahoo(the company) is laying off employees OR some people are celebrating this with a "Yahoo!"
its ofcourse a Yahoo for Yahoo!
the best measure for cost cutting and increased profits - lay off people!!


Motions debated at the special Higher Education Sector Conference on pay held on 7 November 2018.
Decisions are recorded below but can also be downloaded here [68kb].
CBC advice to chair: if composite motion 1 point numbered ii is passed, motion 2 point numbered 1 will fall.
pay ballot with 69% in favour of strike action on a 42% turnout is the highest turnout for a pay ballot in UCU HE history.
only eight HE institutions crossed the 50% threshold.
if branches with a turnout of 40%+ reached 50%, 69% of balloted members could take industrial action. If branches with 35%+ reached 50%, 79% of members could strike.
many members are concerned this suggests a lack of interest in casualisation and equality.
without an active GTVO campaign beating the threshold is difficult.
encourage local and national protest foci such as 12 November, Pay Inequality Day.
establish, in conjunction with ROCC, a central task force to collate progress and assist branches where necessary.
Despite factors common to both sectors there is a not unsurprising gap in turnout between pre and post 92s. Not having experience of the USS struggle and having had a larger scale of redundancies and restructurings has meant loss of union members and branch officers. This has, for a myriad of linked reasons (not possible to include here) resulted in many post 92 branches not reaching the threshold.
HESC believes that post 92 branch execs need to be better supported with more resources to organise all of their members.
review ballot results with branch execs.
reasons some branches achieved much higher participation than others.
Conference calls on the national UCU to consider a legal challenge to this undemocratic legislation, preferably in conjunction with the TUC and other trades unions.
Conference resolves to continue to campaign vigorously on workload, casualisation and gender pay gap issues - these have the full support of our members.
that other unions are also seriously affected.
to obtain legal advice as to the prospects of success for such a legal challenge citing potential breach of human rights.
the dispute claims of fair pay, gender pay equality, casualisation and workload remain unresolved at a national level.
the statutory ballot will be national and aggregated.
Replace all instances of 'national' with 'UK-wide' in reference to bargaining.
the union will invest in funding GTVO-focused resources and support for regional organisers and branches ahead of any future ballot.
the effect of that timetable on organising campaigns around pay and equalities, especially campaigns involving ballots on industrial action.
identify early trigger points in a cycle of negotiations running over several years to enable earlier organisation of campaigns and ballots.
the turnout was higher in the previous USS ballot, and one contributing factor may be the different timing in the academic year.
report back to members at the 2019 Congress.
Conference notes the formation of the National Dispute Committee for the USS dispute.
per Congress conventions, NDC meetings will be divided into a pay and equality segment for all representatives and a USS segment for USS representatives.
UCU policy, including Conference 2017 HE2, is opposed to local pay bargaining.
Conference believes that to survey branches regarding alternatives to 'UK level bargaining' is at best a distraction and at worst an open invitation to employers to engage in local pay bargaining, at a time when the sector is threatened by market competition, speculative expansion and bankruptcies.
Conference resolves to instruct HEC not to commence this survey, and instead to consult over a national strategy for exceeding ballot thresholds in pursuit of national pay demands.
and provide structured information and assistance to all branches to help members engage with and understand how New JNCHES and UK-wide bargaining works. This should help members to feel invested in UK-wide claims and bargaining that they understand with clarity.

Brazil: Court rules that gay couples can marry in Rio de Janeiro state
PinkNews.co.uk Staff Writer April 19, 2013
A court ruling in Rio de Janeiro means that the state is the 11th in Brazil to recognise same-sex marriages, although there are conflicting reports about the way that the judgement will be applied.
An order to allow the civil unions of same-sex couples within the state to be considered as marriages was made by the Magistrate General of Justice of Rio, Judge Valmir de Oliveira Silva and published in the Official Gazette of the State today reports Jornal do Brasil.. Some analysts have interpreted the precedent as only applying in cities within the state where a judge also agrees with equality.
In 2011, the federal Supreme Court ruled that all gay couples in Brazil should have the right to enter into civil unions but stopped short of a same-sex marriages. The ruling gave "stable" couples the right to benefits enjoyed by straight married people, relating to benefits, inheritance and tax.
The decision to allow gay couples to marry is one taken by each of the 26 of the states that make up the country.
In some states, same-sex couples have to apply to a court to have their civil unions converted to a marriage.
Today's decision means that 15 days after the publication of a union of a gay couple in Rio de Janeiro, they will be legally considered as married, with the agreement of a judge.
Last year, a judge in the state of São Paulo ruled that same-sex couples would be considered as married without the agreement of a court.

Kalank Box-Office Collection, Day 2: Abhishek Varman's Period Drama Hangs In Tight
The day 2 for Karan Johar's magnum opus has been positive enough as the figures registered at the box-office are in double digits
Updated on Apr 20 2019, 6:52:24
Vickey Lalwani
Team Kalank can rejoice as the day 2 figures of the film are also positive and still in double digits. The film has made Rs 11.45 crore on Day 2, after marking a record-breaking opening of Rs 21.6 crore. The total till now in two days is at Rs 33.06 crore.
Kalank, starring Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sonakshi Sinha, Madhuri Dixit and Sanjay Dutt, has managed to keep the boat afloat, in spite of it being a working day (Thursday).
The movie has got decent reviews from masses and critics, alike. SpotboyE.com Editor, Vickey Lalwani rated it 3 stars and wrote, ""Heady mix- courtesan, scared father, young girl hopelessly in love, young man wanting to avenge his illegitimacy, husband who suggests that his wife is the first and last girl in his life and the wife who is counting her last days of existence. Interesting dance numbers by Kiara Advani (who often finds herself in bed with Dhawan Jr) and Kriti Sanon (who puts everything into her item number). But what I missed was the unpredictability in the story. When you have such a big cast staring at you, one is bound to expect a lot of twists and turns like in K3G, KHNH, K2H2 and KANK which take you by surprise. Sadly, that is missing here, perhaps because Abhishek Varman (director) rolls out the story in a very step-by-step way." He also praised the climax and said, "Visually a treat packed with strong performances from most actors. The climax scene, in particular, will remain in your memory for a long time. It is patiently and beautifully shot, you feel for the characters and Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt excel in that frame."

Can a hospital's physical structure be a part of its patients healing process? World-renowned architect Rafael Viñoly thinks so. As the man behind the new Center for Care and Discovery the 10-story, 1.2 million–square foot addition to the University of Chicago Medicine Center.
The Center is the first of six new buildings to be constructed collectively in five phases, ultimately resulting in a complex of over three million square feet of new medical space for the U of CMC. The goal was to create a design that enhances the adaptability and longevity of the building. For this project, Viñoly used "modules," structurally sound architectural units of nearly 31 feet by 18 feet, which allow for flexibility should the technological and functional needs of the hospital change. In addition, the close proximity to the Gordon Center for Integrative Science and Knapp Center for Biomedical Discovery is meant to allow for more efficient translation from research to treatment for patients with complicated conditions.
Unlike other hospitals that prefer to not have visitors linger, the Center is designed to be family friendly and impersonal. The Sky Balcony, which looks out onto downtown and Lake Michigan, and the ground floor of the hospital will be open to the public, in order to foster connections with the community.
