INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The leader of Indiana's veterans affairs agency resigned Friday following reports that he had awarded money to veterans who worked under him at the agency that was intended to go to veterans struggling to make ends meet.
Gov. Eric Holcomb accepted James Brown's resignation as director of the Indiana Department of Veterans' Affairs, and in a statement he praised the decorated Vietnam veteran, who had led the agency since 2013.
Brown's resignation came a week after reports surfaced questioning the agency's administration of Indiana's Military Family Relief Fund , which was created in 2007.
The fund, which is financed primarily with fees from sales of veteran license plates and "Support Our Troops" plates, grants money to veterans to help them pay for food, housing, utilities, medical services and transportation.
The Indianapolis Star reported that at least 11 agency employees who are veterans — and many of whom make $40,000 to $50,000 a year — have collectively received about $40,000 in recent years from the fund. One employee received $1,100 for new tires. Another employee's application was approved the day it was submitted, even though veterans facing homelessness and job losses were required to wait weeks or months for assistance.
The newspaper also reported that while veterans not employed by the state agency who sought funding faced multiple requests for additional information about their requests, documents showed that veterans who are agency employees faced few such hurdles.
Indiana's Veterans Commission approved draft rules Oct. 5 for the fund, but plans to make more changes before submitting a final version to the state Attorney General's Office for legal review.
The Indianapolis Star reported that had those draft rules been adopted years ago, Veterans' Affairs employees likely would have been precluded from receiving funds. While the proposed rules do not explicitly prohibit agency employees from receiving money, income limitations based on federal poverty guidelines probably would.
WRTV-TV reported that while veterans and their families can get up to $2,500 in funding, records showed that grants of more than $2,500 were awarded to both employees of the agency and the fund itself. It also reported that two veterans had raised concerns in February about the fund's administration.
Most veterans also were strictly held to a $2,500 lifetime cap on aid, but at least four of Brown's employees who are veterans received more than that, including the manager of the program, who dipped into the fund multiple times.
Most of the grants in question were awarded during a period of 2 ½ years when veterans affairs officials hadn't adopted rules governing the $1.7 million program.
Brown, who approved the grants, defended his actions, arguing that his employees had a right to the money just as any other veteran did.
The State Board of Accounts is now conducting an audit of the program.
Holcomb, who re-appointed Brown in 2016 as the agency's director and is ultimately responsible for the agency, has said little about the questionable spending. As recently as Tuesday, he would only say that he is awaiting the results of the audit.
Brown was originally appointed to lead the agency in 2013 by Vice President Mike Pence, who was then Indiana's governor.

Hillary Clinton Stumbles & Wobbles From Pneumonia During 9/11 Ceremony, Collapse Fuels Illness Theories
Devarrick Turner
Updated September 12th, 2016 at 3:58 am
Hillary Clinton gave the nation quite the scare as she suffered a "medical episode" while attending a 9/11 commemoration ceremony in New York City. Video footage shows the Democratic presidential nominee wobbling (and possibly even fainting) as she left the ceremony early. Clinton was apparently diagnosed with pneumonia on Friday (Sep. 9).

You can clearly see the Democratic nominee stumbling and ultimately falling. Secret service basically has to push her into the van.
It was originally reported Clinton was "overheated" and "dehydrated," which prompted her to leave the memorial service early. However, after the troubling footage leaked, her personal physician Dr. Lisa Bardack revealed the pneumonia diagnosis. Bardack also examined Clinton at Chelsea Clinton's apartment after she left the 9/11 ceremony.
Dr. Lisa Bardack's statement:
"Secretary Clinton has been experiencing a cough related to allergies. On Friday, during follow up evaluation of her prolonged cough, she was diagnosed with pneumonia.
"She was put on antibiotics, and advised to rest and modify her schedule. While at this morning's event, she became overheated and dehydrated. I have just examined her and she is now re-hydrated and recovering nicely."
Clinton left her daughter's apartment smiling and telling reporters she was "feeling great." "It's a beautiful day in New York," she added as she waved to supporters. She even posed for a photograph with a little girl.
The former Secretary of State has canceled a trip to California as well as fund raiser and TV appearances. She will remain at her Chappaqua, NY home as she recuperates.
Republicans and Fox News are probably gleaming with joy over the incident. Conservatives, with much help from Fox News, have shamelessly speculated on Clinton's health. Using selectively edited footage, they have suggested she may be battling a serious illness and even having seizures.
Though I doubt this is the shining undeniable proof for the Republican theory, the video of Clinton stumbling is extremely concerning.
Meanwhile, many Bernie Sander supporters have shared this video/GIF:

Russian Third-Tier Side Mitos Score 'Fastest Goal Ever' vs Olympia Gelendzhik (Video)
4th, October 2011
By Chris Wright
While it's yet to be rubber-stamped, there's a good possibility that the fastest goal ever scored cropped up in the third-tier of Russian football earlier this month, when veteran Mitos midfielder Michail Osinov stepped up and cracked one home from kick-off against Olympia Gelendzhik on September 11th…
http://youtu.be/bynHOQ2z4Ic
The official record holder is the 3.17 seconds it took for then-Atletico Mineiro striker Fred's similar effort to loop into the net at the Sao Paulo Juniors Cup back in 2006, though Osinov's effort is possibly a tad quicker – seems like we're just waiting on an official verification now.

Jolly Boy John says:
See…this is where the rules have jumped the shark. That big white circle? Only two players are allowed inside it at kick-off. THERE IS NO OTHER REASON FOR IT. Yet, third man scores goal.
The Scots player was Chris Maguire but that was in the second half.
He cracked one out there.

According to projections from NetCraft, a leading web server surveying service, that there will be over 1 billion active websites by 2017, it's understandable that the Internet can seem a bit overwhelming to new users. In fact, there's so much to see and do online today it can be hard for new users to know what to do first – or where to go first to get started with all that "seeing" and "doing".
What websites can help you make the best travel plans, find a job, or get an education.
Learn more about the most frequently researched softwares, services, and strategies millions of people use to shop online below.
There are many different browsers available to surf the Internet. On most personal computers and mobile devices, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox get the majority of use, followed closely by Microsoft Edge (formerly Internet Explorer). In the Mac world, Safari is also highly used for surfing the web. The battle between these browsers to dominate the market has led to continuous improvements to their software. Learn which one is best for your needs before you get started online.
The World Wide Web is the most popular part of the Internet by far. Once you spend time on the Web you'll feel that there is no limit to what you can discover. Learn how this whole thing works before you start your journey!
The World Wide Web was originally developed in 1990 at CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle Physics. The original idea came from a young computer scientist, Tim Berners-Lee. It's now managed by The World Wide Web Consortium. This article is a must-read if you want to learn more about how the Web got started.
Current projections suggest that there will be more than 1 billion active websites by 2017.
A website has one or more related web pages, depending on how it's designed. Web pages on a site are linked together through a system of hyperlinks, enabling you to jump between them by clicking on a link. If you're new to the concepts of what information is located in different areas of a web page, and the purpose behind the location of that information, this guide can help you better understand that as you navigate the Web.
When you think of the Internet, you probably think of ".com." Just what do those three letters at the end of a World Wide Web address mean? In order to locate online data, web servers that host the information each have a unique numerical address – and domain names turn those numerical addresses into word combinations that are easier for everyone to remember. Learn more about the history and benefits of domain names here.
Think of the World Wide Web as a vast collection of electronic files stored on millions of computers all around the world. Web addresses help all of us navigate to the specific location of each file. Hypertext links these files together and Uniform Resource Locators (or URLs) help us better understand what addresses we need to use to locate the files. Learn more about web addresses here.
Make sure you're using the right browser before creating a lot of favorites and bookmarks.
With hundreds of millions of websites and more coming online daily, you will undoubtedly find ones you want to revisit. Bookmarks and Favorites save Web addresses so you can return to them quickly, without having to retype them. Learn how to bookmark web pages and manage favorites in your web browser here.
When you launch your web browser a predefined web page appears. This page is referred to as the home page or start page. The good news is that you're not stuck with any particular page–you're free to choose any one you want. Learn more about setting up your home page in your preferred browser here.
One reason for the surge in popularity of smartphones is their ability to access information on-the-go. Connecting to the Internet from a device that slips into your pocket instead of a hauling around a bulky laptop offers a lot of convenience. Learn more about the mobile web here.
As you surf the Net, you will undoubtedly discover that at times you can't access certain websites. Why, you may wonder? Error messages attempt to explain the reason for that and other problems. Learn about Internet error messages and how to respond to them here.
Cloud computing refers to an evolution of the Internet where software applications are installed, upgrades, and stored on the Internet. Users save on the costs of buying software, installing it on your computer, upgrading it periodically and storing all your data on your hard drive. Instead, they use software applications online and pay a monthly service fee. Learn more about the benefits of cloud computing here.
Almost everything you do online–whether it's searching for information, reading a news article, shopping for a gift or downloading music–is recorded. As you move through cyberspace you leave a trail of digital data in your wake. This trail, often referred to as a clickstream, contains a revealing record of your online activities. Learn more about what browsers can do with your clickstream and how to protect it here.
If you thrive on information, there's an easy way to get it by subscribing to RSS feeds. RSS is a form of content syndication you subscribe to for up-to-the-minute information delivered to your desktop or mobile devices. Learn more about getting the most out of RSS feeds here.
If you aren't looking for a new job why not explore other ways to make money online?
Finding a job once meant browsing the classifieds in the local paper and asking business owners if they were hiring. But the Internet has changed that. Online job boards, social networking sites, and employment sites have replaced pounding the pavement in the search for work. Learn more about getting the most of job searching online here.
E-commerce has become a fact of modern life, with millions of people now shopping regularly from the convenience of their computers. Retailers, from Amazon to Z Gallery, have websites where you can purchase any imaginable product online, including tonight's dinner. Learn more about buying products through online shopping here.
As college costs continue to spiral upward, cash-strapped students have to be resourceful. Often overlooked in calculating annual expenses is the price of textbooks, yet it can add up to more than $500 per semester. Planning ahead combined with some online shopping savvy will go a long way in saving a bundle of money. Learn more about how to help college students save on their textbooks using the Internet here.
Would you like to get a degree without setting foot in a classroom or hone your professional skills from the comfort of your desktop or mobile device? You can now enroll in some of the tens of thousands of online classes available via the World Wide Web. Learn more about furthering your education with online learning here.
Traveling through cyberspace can be exciting, but it's no substitute for an adventure in the real world. That's where the Web can really help you research destinations, organize your itinerary and book reservations. Learn more about planning a trip with online travel tools here.
Despite the wide availability of high-speed, broadband Internet service, some people still access the Web with a dial-up account. Waiting for media clips and content rich web pages to download can be frustrating. To make Web surfing more satisfying and productive, we offer some tips.
If there are things you need to familiarize yourself with about the World Wide Web, we are almost certain we have you covered with these helpful articles and tips.
Think you've mastered the basics? Why not put your skills to the test?

Whatever you are looking for during your Internet exploration, we are sure you will be able to find. Hopefully these guides from Learn The Net will help you feel more confident as you embark on your first searches. Good luck!


Day 1: START A BLOG.
Simple, I know. But I'm taking baby steps, sticking a toe outside that comfort zone to test the waters. Plus, it's going to take me all day just to figure out all the bells and whistles on this website.
Rule #1: I am not here to dole out advice. I don't have nearly enough knowledge or experience to offer any sound advice to my fellow military spouses out there. But I'm hoping to share other blogs on my page to point you in the right direction if that's what you're seeking (that is, once I figure out how to do that).
Rule #2: The purpose of this blog is neither to bash the military nor profess my undying love for it. Remember, it's just background noise.
Rule #3: I do not have a political agenda, and I'd appreciate it if you kept yours to yourself.
Rule #4: My proposed format is as follows: I will begin each day by announcing my challenge. (If I wait until my day has started, I am much more likely to reconfigure something I've already done and call it my daily challenge. Kind of like adding a task to your to-do list after you've completed it just so you can cross something off. Come on, you know you've done it!) And I will end each day by sharing whether or not my mission was a success, a failure, or was aborted due to extenuating circumstances.
Rule #5: I am open to suggestions (within reason). Feel free to drop me a line with ideas about what I should challenge myself to do. However, please keep in mind that I don't drink coffee, I'm not in the market for a pet, and I am adamantly opposed to plastic surgery. And let's keep it clean folks. This is a family blog.

Passo do Sabão é um distrito do município de Viamão, no Rio Grande do Sul.  Pertence ao grupo dos três distritos de predominância urbana, juntamente com Viamão e Viamópolis. Passo do Sabão é também o distrito de maior população, com cerca de 41% dos habitantes do município.

A origem do distrito
Em 1895, por meio de ato administrativo, o município de Viamão foi dividido em distritos: Viamão, Estiva, Itapuã e Lombas. Com o decorrer das décadas, e em razão de mudanças políticas, a nomenclatura e a quantidade de distritos foi modificada. Em dezembro de 1953, é criado o distrito de Passo do Sabão, que então passou a abranger a porção noroeste do município.

O distrito e a população
Na década de 1960, o desenvolvimento industrial no município de Porto Alegre elevou a participação dos setores secundário e terceário na economia regional. Este processo proporcionou expressivo aumento no fluxo migratório de trabalhadores, que visando melhores condições de trabalho, partiam das cidades do interior para capital. A dificuldade imposta pela prefeitura de Porto Alegre na comercialização de lotes conduziu esta população às regiões periféricas e aos municípios próximos, onde as regulamentações eram amenas. Por estar situado às margens da chamada estrada do Mato Grosso, Passo do Sabão se tornou atrativo, e passou a receber um número crescente de famílias.

A zona urbana
A zona urbana de Passo do Sabão abrange a maior parte do distrito. Apesar de conservar boas condições em infraestrutura e comércio desenvolvido em algumas áreas, o distrito também sofre, em vários loteamentos, pela falta de itens fundamentais como saneamento básico.

O desenvolvimento comercial
A região de maior desenvolvimento no distrito é constituida pelos loteamentos Santa Isabel  e Santa Cecília, que já nos anos de 1950, expressavam atividade comercial por meio de pequenos estabelecimentos. O município investiu em infraestrutura. Nos anos de 1980, a região se tornou a segunda área mais desenvolvida do município. A localização do distrito, e sua numerosa população atraíram grandes empresas do setor de serviços.

A infraestrutura nos loteamentos periféricos
Passo do Sabão, por outro lado, carece de infraestrutura em suas regiões periféricas. Nos loteamentos Augusta Marina e Augusta Fiel, grande parte das residências não estão conectadas à rede de esgoto.
A falta de programas de saneamento básico conduz a população a despejar os detritos de suas habitações pelas ruas a céu aberto, os quais fluem sem nenhuma contenção aos córregos da região, poluindo assim o solo e o ambiente. O descaso da população também vem degradando os córregos que cortam estes loteamentos. Em Augusta Marina, os córregos Santa Cecília e Cantegril  recebem grande quantidade de lixo, que aliados a geografia da região, em dias de chuva provocam inúmeros transtornos como enchentes e inundações.

As áreas alagáveis
Com uma geografia baixa e plana, as áreas próximas a rua Teodoro Luis de Castro no loteamento Augusta Meneguini sofrem com alagamentos e inundações.  Pertencente a região de um antigo banhado, o loteamento faz parte da bacia hidrográfica do arroio Feijó  e é o ponto de encontro dos seus cinco afluentes:
 Córrego Dornelinhos;
 Córrego Cantegril;
 Córrego Santa Cecília;
 Córrego Seminário;
 Córrego Morro Santana.

A zona rural
A zona rural de Passo do Sabão abrange uma pequena área na região nordeste do distrito.

A Reserva Natural Municipal Saint´Hilaire

A região sul do distrito é ocupada integralmente pala Reserva Natural Municipal Saint´Hilaire. O parque surgiu em 1947 como jardim botânico municipal, sendo elevado ao status de reserva permanente somente em 2003. Possui 1 148 hectares limitados ao norte pala rodovia RS-040, ao nordeste pelo distrito de Viamópolis, ao leste pelo distrito de Viamão, ao sul pelo distrito do Espigão e ao oeste pelo município de Porto Alegre.

As perdas políticas
O distrito de Passo do Sabão, durante a década de 1990 sofreu perdas em sua geografia política.

Viamópolis
Em 1991, o então prefeito de Viamão Jorge Chiden, sancionou um novo decreto, que visava reformular a divisão político administrativa no município. Surgiu então o distrito de Viamópolis na região que até então, correspondia a porção sudeste de Passo do Sabão.

Parque Índio Jari
E em dezembro de 1995, o governo do estado expediu decreto, a fim de anexar parte do loteamento Parque Índio Jari ao município de Porto Alegre. Com isto, Passo do Sabão perdeu a região que antes pertencia ao extremo norte do distrito.

Lately, I have been looking into my Email deliverability and have noticed some Facebook comments in groups from business owners who are struggling with the deliverability of their emails. Today, I want to touch on what you can do to improve your deliverability.
As business owners, we work hard to build our email list, and we work hard on the content that we send our subscribers. But, If your email never reaches your subscribers inbox, all your work will go unnoticed. You will lose the opportunity to build a relationship with your potential customers and to promote your products.
The goal is for your email service provider to deliver that email to your subscribers inbox. Of course, there is a lot that can influence that. Some factors according to ConvertKit are subscriber engagement, Limiting negative metrics, authentication, and content.
Engagement is how previous customers of that email provider have interacted with email sent from you. For instance, if a majority of Gmail users are deleting your emails without opening them or marking them as spam, you may be flagged as having a higher likelihood of sending spam emails, and your emails will be filtered to the subscribers spam or promotions folder.
Negative metrics relate to complaints and hard bounces, which may bring up questions of how you are compiling your list or how clean your list is.
Content: We know that the content we are sending is important. Not just the text in the email but the format of the email, including links and images. I use ConvertKit which boasts high deliverability – but they pride themselves on simple text emails which are likely to be delivered to your primary inbox and not the promotions or spam folder.
If you remember when Gmail rolled out Gmail tabs, everyone was worried about it. That was 2013 believe it or not, and apparently, it is still causing problems for some of you. This question came up in a group recently, where a business owner discovered that her newsletters and broadcasts are landing in her subscribers promotions tab.
I encourage my clients to turn off this option in Gmail. You can do that by clicking on settings then choosing Configure Inbox. Here you can choose the tabs you want to enable. I uncheck everything and leave my emails in the primary tab.
Educating your subscribers on how to turn off promotions may help with this issue. You may need to be creative in how you do that. You can post it in various places, social media, your private groups or on landing and thank you pages, since your readers may not be seeing your email.
Keep Your Design Simple: Simple emails deliver better. Avoid fancy templates and Use Fewer Images. Anything with more than one image is going to look like a promotion.

Houston, Texas --- Following news that famed Christian singers dc Talk are reuniting, the Adventist organizers of Generation of Youth for Christ (GYC) announced that the stars will perform their debut reunion concert at this year's GYC Conference in Houston.
dc Talk has promised to open with their 90s megahit Jesus Freak. And the trio was specifically asked to perform What if I Stumble ahead of the Flirty Fellowship sessions scheduled each evening of the Dec 28 - Jan 1 conference held in Houston's George R. Brown Convention Center.
GYC organizer Josef Beats said that if not enough attendees feel they have found their soul mates at the conference by New Year's Eve, dc Talk would "pull out all the stops and perform Luv is a Verb repeatedly during the scheduled Agape Rave.
"As you can see, we are shaking things up at GYC this year," said Beats. "Our 2016 conference theme is Nu Thang."
Yo, Brothas & Sistahs-I be there or be square. You know what I be talkin' ' bout?


Yes, it is hard to believe that it is *almost* time to start back to school again. To be honest, we have been doing a little bit of work here and there these past few weeks so we already have a good many days "counted" for the next school year. The main reason we do this is because it is just too darn hot to go outside right now + I love having some early "practice" days with our new fall schedule so that it is not so hard when all the fall activities start cranking up next month.
But… the real 1st day of school is coming up in a few weeks (Monday, July 30th) and we are all getting really excited around here to break out the new books, pencils, and crayons. Not to mention the new chalkboard and teacher supplies that Mommy gets to play with too.
And with all this excitement comes a new and freshly updated part of our little blog. If you are reading this sentence, then you have stumbled upon our new little virtual school page. I get asked all the time about our family + homeschooling + how do I do it with all the littles + how does our day go + what do we use, etc… You get the idea, right? I am hoping in the weeks + months ahead that I can record some of the things here on this page so that our family can record the memories but also in hopes that it might help some of you out there too.
So, here is where you come in… Leave me a comment with your questions, curiosities, etc., so that I will know if there is anything specific that you would like to see me post about. Otherwise, I will just start out with some of the basics and how we do things in our little schoolhouse.

It is reasonable for the readmission rate of nursing home patients to be slightly higher than that of the general population because of the other health issues that nursing home patients often face. However, the care available in a nursing home should be able to offset at least some of the difference. The readmission disparity between Medicare nursing home patients and general Medicare patients seems to suggest other problems.
One concern is that hospitals are simply releasing patients too quickly, especially when the patients have come from and are going back to a nursing home. This practice places increasingly vulnerable patients back under the care of nursing homes sooner than may be ideal. Many nursing homes already run on minimal staff, and the added strain of additional patients can lead to errors, substandard care, and the need for rehospitalization.
What Is Medicare Doing to Change Things?
In 2013, Medicare began issuing fines to hospitals with unacceptably high readmission rates. By October of this year, the government will go to work on the other side of the issue. Nursing homes will be eligible for bonuses or subject to penalties based on their Medicare hospital readmission rates. The goal is to incentivize getting things right the first time and to eliminate bouncing nursing home patients back and forth to the hospital.
If you have a loved one in a nursing home who is being sent to the hospital more often than necessary, contact an experienced Chicago nursing home abuse and neglect attorney. There may be an issue with the care your loved one is receiving, and you may be able to seek compensation on their behalf. Call 312-535-4625 for a free consultation at Schwartz Injury Law today.

Gustave Chatain, né le  à Fontainebleau (Seine-et-Marne) et mort le   dans le 10e arrondissement de Paris est un enfant soldat français ayant servi lors de la Première Guerre mondiale sous le grade de caporal.

Biographie

Il naît à Fontainebleau en 1900 au sein d'une famille modeste. Son père, Jules Chatain, est journalier, et sa mère, Marie-Amélie Désangins, sans profession. Avant même le début de la guerre, en mai 1914, il fait parler de lui dans la presse : il est arrêté par la gendarmerie d'Yvetot après avoir fui la ferme où il était employé à Groslay dans l'espoir de s'embarquer au Havre. Sa famille habite alors à Pierrefitte-sur-Seine, ce qui est toujours le cas au moment où la mobilisation générale est déclarée.

La presse de l'époque explique qu'il s'est rendu à Senlis, dans l'Oise, après la mobilisation de son père. Là-bas, il se serait dissimulé au sein de troupes en partance pour le front qui l'ont ensuite « adopté ». La fiche matricule de son père, consultable aux vues numérisées 372 et 373, nous apprend toutefois que celui-ci n'a été mobilisé qu'en décembre 1914. Gustave Chatain a donc simplement fui le domicile familial pour combattre.

Il est blessé par balle à l'épaule droite le 16 septembre 1914 à Fontenoy puis promu soldat de première classe le 13 novembre. Il s'illustre particulièrement les 14 et 15 novembre de la même année au cours desquels il fait preuve, selon sa fiche matricule, de « la plus grande énergie et du plus grand courage ». Il capture deux soldats ennemis durant ces deux jours. Pour ces faits, il obtient la croix de guerre avec palme.

Il est nommé caporal le 23 novembre. Le 19 juin 1916, il est blessé par un éclat d'obus à la main droite près de Verdun. Il est renvoyé à ses parents le 22 février 1917, mais se réengage le 29 août de la même année. Ses nombreux problèmes de santé que sa fiche matricule détaille obligent toutefois l'armée à le réformer avec pension dès la fin d'année. Sur sa demande, son dossier est réévalué et il retourne au front le 24 juillet 1918 mais il est à nouveau réformé temporairement dès le 19 août. Cette réforme temporaire devient définitive en 1923. Entretemps, il se marie le 16 octobre 1920 à Villetaneuse.

Malgré sa réforme, le 29 octobre 1924 il s'engage dans la Légion étrangère pour cinq années de service. Pour ce faire, il prétend se nommer Charles Scheiblin, nom de jeune fille de sa femme, et être de nationalité anglaise. Il manœuvre ainsi au Maghreb jusqu'à l'été 1925. La supercherie est alors découverte et il doit quitter la Légion, étant considéré invalide à 55 % et donc inapte au service.

Il exerce ensuite la profession de peintre en bâtiment, comme l'atteste le recensement de 1936, et vit au 52 rue Volta avec sa femme jusqu'à son décès.

Il finit sa vie en tant que valet de chambre et décède le  à l'hôpital Lariboisière à Paris.

D'autres enfants soldats sont connus pendant la Première Guerre mondiale : Corentin-Jean Carré, Pol Woitelin, Émile Bigarré, Léonce Mallet...

Everyone knows that Netflix has a vast choice for movies, documentaries and especially TV shows. However, not all members and viewers are aware of the amount of offer there is for dramas filled with criminal investigations, feverish romance and family conflicts, that come from another place other than the big film industry in the United States. Having that said, let's welcome the excellent South Korean tv series that are perhaps unknown to some or already deeply loved by others. There's one for everyone's taste, wether dark and dramatic or romantic and emotional. Here is the list of really good Korean TV dramas on Netflix, waiting for you to binge-watch them.
Far from the busy streets of the city-life, we have a tv drama that embraces traditional values in a rural scenery surrounded by nature. It's a show about family, broken relationships and the power of forgiveness. With great acting performances and beautiful settings, "Heaven's Garden" is a good family show for tears and laughs, where emotion and ethics are put above the fast-moving conflicts that dramas usually offer. After having married without her parents' consent, a woman's relationship to her family is broken. Years later, her husband is sent to prison which leaves her with only one option: take her two daughters with her and return to her father's home, asking for forgiveness.
Two acclaimed families of the culinary world are put on a tasty-looking battlefield for the position of the best of the best. There's rivalry, revenge, corruption and a lot of exquisite food stuffed into your sparkling eyes. Secret recipes that need to be protected are what's most intriguing and exciting. With great, solid performances and a smoothly-paced storyline, it's a show that'll not only entertain you from start to finish, but that'll also leave you want to try out some new experiments in the kitchen. A classic structure of Korean dramas.
For all the romance and fantasy buffs out there : here's the right South Korean drama for you. It isn't everyone's cup of tea, that's for sure, but if "Groundhog Day" has stuck with you and Korean cinema is your kind of taste, then it'll probably fit your drama-hunger like a glove. Starring Yoon So-hee and a member of boy-band "Infinite" Kim Myung-soo (although his stage name is the simple letter "L"), it follows the story of an indie band singer who finds himself waking up to the same day over and over, with a girlfriend he must save and a music group he must bring to the light.
I think that from the title itself, once can already guess what this tv show is going to be about. Yes, marriage is indeed one of the central themes in this drama that combines serious conflict with romantic comedy. With 20 episodes on its plate, it explores the structure and behaviour of family, as well as the complicated topic of love. The story goes as follows : an intruding and imposing mother wants to marry off her two daughters to wealthy men. The oldest sister marries a doctor. However, the youngest one puts her mother's plan in peril, when stating her will to marry an ordinary young man.
Although that's the name we find it under on Netflix, this South Korean tv show's original name is actually translated into " Night Light". Within it, we are propelled into a drama where money and power is everyone's final goal, or almost. In a world of corruption, status and especially greed, we are faced with three important characters that will give this story a beginning and an end. There's a coldhearted woman who will do anything to seek the ultimate power and wealth she feverishly lives for. Then, we have her past lover that she mercilessly betrayed, a free-spirited and wealthy man. Finally, a new hire wanting to leave her poverty-stricken background and past behind enters the stage. All have the ambition, but when crossing each others' paths, things become complicated.
"Last" tells the story of a fund manager, whose life turns itself upside down when a big and important financial deal goes unexpectedly wrong. Having lost all his money and put himself in a position of extreme danger, he goes on the run into the dark underground streets of Seoul. Wanting to get his life back and discover what trigged the disastrous result of his deal, he must now work within the rules and hierarchy system of the street in order to get back to the surface of his previous life. With a great set of developed characters, we have exciting action, violent thrill and a little bit of romance all in one. That can be just about all one needs, for a good show to be pleasantly binge-watched.
Here's a little mash-up where James-Bond-type of suspenseful action leads the way into an intricate criminal storyline, while the sweet romance and occasional humour balances the drama out into a satisfying tv shows for everyone's taste. It's entertaining and well-executed, with great energetic scenes and thorough character development. Starring Park Hae-jin and Park Sung-woong, it tells us the story of a talented and skilful secret agent who becomes a moody celebrity's bodyguard in order to pursue his missions undercover. Bromance, romance and a lot of running around with a gun in the hand ensues.
Here's a crime tv show where suspense, gore, supernatural and fantasy are all part of what makes it great. Ah, and the romance too, of course. It is a thriller with a complex story full of important details you might miss out on at first, only to realise their importance as the plot moves forwards. The acting stands out, the grabbing twists are right on spot and the never-ending suspenseful events are enough to have you hooked for the entirety of the season. Let's just say it's about a case of intriguing serial murders, a grim reaper, a possessed detective and a girl who can see death. It's now time to press play.
Welcome to a romantic drama full of complicated plot lines and an intense love story between two contrasting individuals in the mids of life's long-lasting coincidences. "Descendants of The Sun" became a huge hit in South Korea that actually helped the country's economy and culture. It has won multiple awards in Asia and has been translated into dozens of other languages. With a little fantasy involved and a lot of dangerous, tense adventures and misadventures, we are introduced to two crucial characters whose path will merge into one, soon enough. One is a soldier, the other is a sergeant. Let the drama begin.
Also called "Forest of Secrets", this crime TV drama is the perfect fit for someone craving well-crafted criminal investigations and consistent, three-dimensional characters who move the plot forward effortlessly. Luckily for the rest of the world, its success wasn't confined only to its home-country of South Korea as Netflix knew its potential and gave it the opportunity to reach our screens as well. The story follows a cold, emotion-less prosecutor and a strong, warm-hearted detective who team up to find the truth behind a case of murders, in a mysterious and corrupt world.

Indian recipe for kids suitable for 2 years plus This is my twist on a British classic, beans on toast.
Now this fabulous curry is as quick to make as it is to warm up the can of beans used to prepare it with. It is perfect served as lunch for a 2-4 year old or as an after school snack for older children.
When I served this to my little one I was anxiously waiting to hear the magic word.... 'more' (yes that's right, 'more', clearly not the magic word you were thinking of). Anyway to my delight I heard 'more pea's please'. Well she meant 'beans' but it came out as 'peas'.
Now those of you who are regular followers of my blog, or even those of you who have a copy of my book will know that I do not add salt to any of the meals I prepare from scratch for my little one. However, since the main ingredient of this curry is ready-made, there will be some salt included within this curry, so the best option here is to opt for a can of beans that has low salt and sugar content.
Although there is a small amount of salt within this curry, I like to counter it with the fact that baked beans are in fact.... SUPERFOODS! They are loaded with protein, necessary for healthy growth for children, fibre-rich, and the tomato sauce they are covered in is a source of lycopene which is antioxidant and anti-cancer. Add an extra boost of health benefits to the baked beans in the form of 'SuperSpices' and this really is a simple and nutritious snack. For example, ginger is great for digestion and well, I've already applauded mustard seeds for their fabulous health benefits.
If you are concerned about keeping your child's daily salt in-take low (as I am), a great solution here is to create 2 servings from this curry and serve 1 to your little one, reducing the salt content by half straight away. In this case 0.45g based on the baked beans I am using. As 1-3 year old's need less than 2g of salt per day this keeps the salt in-take well within the recommended guidelines. When I do this, I also like to offer my little one a banana to finish her meal with to make sure she has a satisfied little belly.
Makes 1-2 servings. Total cooking and preparation time: 6-7 mins.
Heat the oil in a small pot on low heat and add garlic, mustard seeds and cumin.
As soon as they begin to sizzle stir for a couple of seconds, add the baked beans and stir. This is very important as the cumin seeds can burn quite quickly.
Add the ginger, coriander, turmeric and black pepper and stir. Simmer for 5 mins and it's done! Remove from the heat and set aside.
Toast some soft granary bread, butter with unsalted butter (to keep the salt in-take down), remove crusts if necessary and cut into triangles. Pour the baked bean curry over the toast. This makes the toast really soft and yummy and my daughter loves it like this as she doesn't like toast too crispy.

A sustainable death wish
'The only true sustainable funeral is a funeral without people being able to say goodbye...' (Photo: carolynabooth)
Brussels, 13. Apr 2018, 07:37
Every year, millions of people in the EU are either buried or cremated in coffins made out of hardwood or particle board. It is a fate that awaits us all.
Trees are cut to make a coffin. Glue and other chemicals are used to make particle boards. Fuel is burnt to incinerate a body and fluids to preserve it for display. Each step, and others, leaves behind a carbon footprint.
A light and sturdy coffin cuts fuel transport costs. Coffin in a Box makes coffins that are under 30kg that can be directly shipped to any address by standard mail like DHL or UPS. (Photo: Chistann)
Although some efforts have been made to gauge the environmental impact on each method at the national level, cross-EU scientific assessments are lacking.
The EU has no rules on the cross-border trade in coffins. It means more eco-friendly coffins are required to go through regulatory certification hurdles per EU member state, a likely disincentive for some innovators seeking to expand their domestic businesses.
Amid the mix are relatively new companies and technologies aiming to provide what they describe as 'greener alternatives' to the more traditional burial methods.
For some, it means developing new materials and technologies to reduce a carbon footprint.
Among them is 'resomation', a technique where the body is dissolved in warm high pH bath water. The body turns into a fine white power, and the remaining liquid drained off. The process is legal in number of US states but has yet to make any inroads in the EU.
In the Netherlands, however, talks are under way to legislate resomation as part of a broader array of options for those seeking more sustainable methods of disposing corpses.
"It is an actual topic here and we investigated the environmental aspects for the Netherlands," Elisabeth Keijzer, a sustainability researcher at TNO Netherlands, told EUobserver.
In one study published last year in the peer-reviewed International Journal of Life Cycle Assessment, Keijzer sought to quantify the environmental impacts of Dutch burials and cremation.
She found, among other things, that the carbon footprint of funerals in the Netherlands is 97kg of CO2 equivalents per burial and 210kg of CO2 equivalents per cremation.
Taken as a whole, this represents a very small portion of a person's life footprint. Instead, she says issues like culture and other social norms of the ceremony itself may have an even greater impact in terms of cutting CO2 emissions.
"The only true sustainable funeral is a funeral without people being able to say goodbye and that is something we don't want, we want to have that goodbye moment," she says, noting that transport to and from a burial can be carbon intensive.
Reducing CO2 funeral emissions generally therefore focused elsewhere.
Promession is another technique, developed by a Swedish biologist, where the body is frozen solid and then shattered into smaller pieces on a large metallic vibrating surface.
But such methods are unpalatable for some and a difficult sell.
For others, it simply means cutting the weight and all the associated fuel costs associated with getting a coffin to the grieving family and into the ground or furnace.
The supply chain
Dingco Geijtenbeek, founder of the company, Coffin in a Box, is one of them.
"If you want to supply coffins you have to basically adhere to a logistics model which exists in each country," says Geijtenbeek.
Member states use coffin depots scattered around the country to ensure supply and quick delivery. But the fuel use associated with keeping those depots stocked with heavy coffins has a cost.
It is a supply chain Geijtenbeek describes as hostile to newcomers given the trade is often dominated by bigger firms. A funeral service company may have its own coffin supplier branch, which in turn keeps the business within its grip.
To get around it, Geijtenbeek decided to make a coffin under 30kg that can be directly shipped to any address by standard mail like DHL or UPS.
"It is being delivered by the same guy who brings the Amazon packages to the house," he says. At under 30kg, the package requires less fuel for delivery.
The Coffin in a Box idea has caught the attention of others working in the circular economy, a cradle-to-cradle concept that the EU is attempting to kick start with new rules for waste and recycling.
Noble Environmental Technologies, a US company with a branch in the Netherlands, converts cellulose fibres from agricultural and urban waste into structural panels through a water pressure and heat technology known as ECOR.
"We don't use any additives or binders in order to make these panels, which can be used to replace particle boards or even wood in some instances," says Navied Tavakolly, a circular economy business developer at Noble Environmental Technologies.
Tavakolly describes the panels as fully biodegradable, recyclable, and which also contain nutrients for soil.
The basic panel is 2.5mm thick and three metres long. It can be used for almost any structure but when shaped into a coffin, he says they are less expensive compared to particle board.
"When comparing it with hardboard, we still need to make a financial step, even though the product outperforms hardboard in technical properties. We are close."

Europe's 'best-kept secret' - its booming bioeconomy
EU biofuels policy is false solution to climate problems
New documentary shows how biofuels lobby played parliament
Europe's bioeconomy is worth €2.2 trillion and employs 18.6 million people across the bloc, but a third of citizens are completely unaware of it.
A group of over 175 Dutch scientists calls on the new Dutch government to lobby against the use of food crops in biofuels.
In their hunt for a biofuel 'magic bullet' to save the environment, MEPs came up against the power of lobbyists and national governments.
The Business of Nature
The European Commission plans to unveil a new bioeconomy strategy on Thursday. EUobserver's third edition of Business magazine looked at the many aspects of the bioeconomy – the parts of the economy that use renewable biological resources.
Bioeconomy is a win-win strategy for Finland
"The big problem in the world today is a lack of resources and a lack of bio-diversity," says Finnish environment minister Kimmo Tiilikainen. His country plans to produce what the world needs the most.

poetry – picture – music … the spoken image of raga paintings.
Beside extraordinary music compositions of North Indian Classic (Hindustani) and South Indian music (Carnatic) the art work on the sub continent is documented by impressive palaces and monumental painting e.g. the frescos from the cave temples of Ajanta, dated back to the 2nd till 1st century. A unique painting art had been developed, too. The hand writing illumination and the Indian miniature paintings, the so called >raga mala-s< were established correlating with the Indian music and corresponding with the raga form directly.
Many hundred of years before the >raga mala-s< each raga got its counterpart by a ragini, the female form of a raga, basically male and a form of psyche (rupa). Rupa manifestates itself in two different profiles. By the music scientists of India they have been differentiated as nadamaya-rupa, the pure sound structure of melodies and devatamaya-rupa, the hidden prototype of the devine wisdom. The Indian miniature paintings belong to the second category. They shall awake in the viewers mind and his imagination a kind of "harmony, corresponding with the picture motives. Painted ragas work similar as a Yantra to realise a spiritual status, comparable with the results of Yoga exercises.
In its origin meaning the painting art of miniatures have a religious character. The performance get an illustration of handwritings, less to express the enjoy of art than more to aquire religious earnings.
The music inspired Indian miniature paintings are unique, a complex form of art, nowhere else in any art form of the world to be met. They had their bloom time around the regency of Akbar, one of four rulers of the Moghul time beside Jehangir, Shah Jehan and Aurangzeb, who all have been very important for India. The Mughul style of the raga mala-s is dated between 1556 and 1605.
The period of this kind of painting ended in 1658. Future generations owe to the miniature painting a demonstration with all details of the religious, spiritual and materialistic cultures of that time. Very late the meaning of the illustrations as a music inspired painting has been understood very late. The manuscript of Kalpasutra (Jinacaritra) became public in 1956. It is dated to the end of the 15th century.
The IMC broadcasting show "RAGAMALA … poetry – painting – music … the spoken image of raga paintings is referring to the Western painting style. The Eastern one expired in India when the Bhuddism was destroyed by the Islamic conquest of North India in the 13th century … and survived only in some few schools for painting in Nepal and Tibet.
Whats the interesting aspect of these little formats nowadays ? – As a first impression of Indian miniature paintings, most viewer from Western world experience the raga mala-s with a kind of strangeness. The beauty is locked at first sight by a specific code. For the modern man of the 21st century raga mala-s are fascinating by their shining colours, presented strictly seperated from each other. Red, blue, white, green and black occur mainly.

My Favorite Privacy Tools in 2020
2020-08-10 · 3 min read
This is a list of tools I use to increase my privacy on the Internet. I'm not a security expert. My goal is to have a good enough protection. Feel free to suggest any additions and improvements.
Firefox probably doesn't need an introduction. It is an open-source project. It's run by Mozilla - a non-profit organization. Anyone can go to the Firefox repository to take a look at the code and see how it works.
Firefox doesn't gather your personal data to serve you ads as Chrome. While Google seems careful and to an extend trustworthy with handling people's personal data, you don't seem to have much control how your profile is built and used.
The browser is constantly being improved. It seems slightly heavier than Chrome or Safari on my computer, but that's a minor issue compared to all the advantages. I use the Developer Edition.
Little Snitch is a MacOS application that monitors connections and lets you control inbound and outbound traffic from your computer. It visualizes these connections and shows where applications connect. This way you have information about both familiar and unfamiliar network actions that applications are trying to perform.
PiHole & AdGuard
PiHole & AdGuard are ad blockers. PiHole is open-source while AdGuard is a paid offering. I use one at home and the other one at the office. AdGuard is slightly easier to setup and use. Both work network-wide, but AdGuard also provides standalone applications and browser plugins to protect from ads when being outside of private networks.
Nibspace
Nibspace is an alternative to Google Analytics. It provides basic information about the visitors of my websites. It doesn't use cookies and it has a small footprint (~ 1kb) while being affordable ($1/mo per domain). It's not open-source. There are few other, notable competitors such as Fathom, Simple Analytics and Plausible.
Bitwarden is an open-source password manager. I used to use 1Password, but I wanted something more affordable yet with similar features and Bitwarden fits the bill perfectly.
NordVPN is a personal virtual private network service provider. Their marketing seems aggressive, so I was a bit skeptical at the beginning, but then I decided to give it a try. Overall, NordVPN is one of the most polished and reliable VPNs I've used so far.
I also like that they show some innovation efforts, namely their NordLynx technology that is built around WireGuard - this relatively new VPN tunneling protocol
Last year NordVPN was hacked, but they handled the whole situation pretty well in my view.
Fastmail
Fastmail is a paid e-mail service that focuses on privacy and doesn't display ads. It is a simple service to manage e-mails, calendars and contacts. It costs $5/mo. It is also fast. This is partly related to their work on a more reliable, faster IMAP alternative, called JMAP - so it goes beyond just a snappy UI.

A chopper tricycle is designed with a cool laid-back chopper look. You can add a little pizzaz to your trike and turn heads while you ride. And, still have all of the benefits that a trike offers like... No balance issues due to a stable platform. You also have a lower step over than a bicycle for easier mount and dismount.
The pedals on the chopper tricycle are positioned forward of the seat post which enables the rider to place both feet flat on the ground while seated. So if you want to take a breather, or stop and chat with a neighbor, you can do it in complete comfort.The rear wheels are on 27 inch centers for a firm stable platform.
The triple forks are unique to choppers.
The swept back handlebars give a comfortable riding position.
The rear platform will accommodate a basket for convenience.
You have enhanced stopping power with rear drum and front V brakes.
There are 6 speeds available to maximize pedaling efficiency.

Q: Sharing progress data between Android apps I've nearly finished writing a game for the Android market.  I have a full version and a free version with half the levels.  I've read of a lot of people in similar situation with the following problem but can't find a satisfactory solution:
My apps are separate but I want them to share data.  At least I want the full version to be able to read the free version's progress data.  If a user finishes the free version, then installs the full, it needs to access the progress info because the first stage of the game is identical to the free version and the progress should be shared/mapped.
From what I have read the best way to save game progress is using SharedPreferences, which is what I'm doing and it's working perfectly.
On searching for ways to share data I read that the best thing to do is to define the same android:sharedUserId in both AndroidManifest.xml files to be the same value and to ensure both apps are signed with the same key:
What is sharedUserId in Android, and how is it used?
multiple apps, sharing same data directory
I've done this and checked it's working by using ApplicationInfo to see both app's uids, which are the same.  However, I was then expecting to be able to read and write to SharedPrefs from both apps (running at different times) and to be reading/writing the same data.  But alas no.  If this does not make the apps share the same SharedPreferences, then what data are they sharing by specifying the same sharedUserId?
After some more digging some people seem to be saying I need to access the other app's context first:
http://thedevelopersinfo.com/2009/11/25/getting-sharedpreferences-from-other-application-in-android/
Can't read SharedPreferences fron another application
So if I want App2 to access App1's data, this gives me the following code in App2's Activity:
Context otherAppsContext = null;
try {
    otherAppsContext = createPackageContext("com.example.app1package",0);
} catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
}
SharedPreferences sharedPrefs = otherAppsContext.getSharedPreferences("TestShareData",Context.MODE_PRIVATE);

But when I ask sharedPrefs for data it still just gives me data from the current app (App2 instead of App1).
Inspecting the otherAppsContext variable I'm not sure what it's giving me.  It has an mBasePackageName property which is the package name of App2 (wrong).  But it also has an mPackageInfo property which appears to contain data about App1.
I just don't know if I'm doing things the right way but am missing something or if this isn't the way to go at all.  I just want to link my 2 apps in such a way that one can read the other's SharedPrefs.  How do most full versions of apps link to the free one's data?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

A: Sure this happens a lot but think I may have solved my own problem.
Both of my apps (full and free versions) are writing to sharedPrefs under the same name:
SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences( PREFS_NAME, 0 );

Where PREFS_NAME is the same for both apps.  When I ask for App1's Context from App2 it gives me a Context but it seems it's a Context that can access both Apps' data?
To explain when I get a Context for App1, from App2 and ask for SharedPreferences giving the name PREFS_NAME, I get the SharedPrefs from App2 instead.  But I tried changing the SharedPrefs name for App1 and then accessing that from the context in App2 and suddenly it picks up App1's data.
I don't really know what I'm getting back from the createPackageContext call, it seems to be a handle to both sets of data.  But I think I can just make my apps use different names for the SharedPrefs and have the full app just search for the free app's data if it needs to.

Leaf protein concentrate (LPC) is a concentrated form of the proteins found in the leaves of plants.  It has been examined as a human or animal food source, because it is potentially the cheapest, most abundant source of available protein.  Although humans can derive some protein from the direct consumption of leafy vegetables, the human digestive system would not be able to deal with the enormous bulk of leaves needed to meet dietary protein requirements with leaf vegetables alone.

Composition
Whole leaf protein concentrate is a dark green substance with a texture similar to cheese. Approximately 60% of this is water, while the remaining dry matter is 9-11% nitrogen, 20-25% lipid, 5-10% starch and a variable amount of ash. It is a mixture of many individual proteins. Its flavour has been compared to spinach or tea.

Because the colour and taste may make it unpalatable for humans, LPC can instead be separated into green and white fractions. The green fraction has proteins mainly originating from the chloroplasts, while the white fraction has proteins mainly originating from the cytoplasm.

Applications
LPC was first suggested as a human food in the early 20th century, but it has not achieved much success, despite early promise. Norman Pirie, the Copley Medal winner from the UK, studied LPC and promoted its use for human consumption. He and his team developed machines for extraction of LPC, including low-maintenance "village units" intended for poor rural communities. These were installed in places such as villages in south India.

The increasing reliance on feedlot based animal rearing to satisfy human appetites for meat has increased demand for cheaper vegetable protein sources. This has recently led to renewed interest in LPC to reduce the use of human-edible vegetable protein sources in animal feed.

Leaf protein has had successful trials as a substitute for soy feed for chickens and pigs.

LPC from alfalfa can be included in feed for tilapia as a partial replacement for fish meal.

Dietary issues
Leaf protein is a good source of amino acids, with methionine being a limiting factor. It is nutritionally better than seed proteins and comparable to animal proteins (other than those in egg and milk).

In terms of digestibility, whole LPC has digestibility in the range 65–90%. The green fraction has a much lower digestibility that may be <50%, while the white fraction has digestibility >90%.

The challenges that have to be overcome using lucerne and cassava, two high density monoculture crops, include the high fiber content and other antinutritional factors, such as phytate, cyanide, and tannins.

Lablab beans, Moringa oleifera, tree collards and bush clover may also be used. Flavors of different species vary greatly.

Methods of production
Generally, LPC is produced by pulping leaves and pressing the juice out, heating the juice to coagulate the protein, and filtering the protein out and drying it. To obtain the green and white fractions separately, two-step heat coagulation is the usual method: heating to approximately 60 °C coagulates the green protein, then heating to 80 °C coagulates the white protein. Alternative methods that have been proposed include flocculation using polyelectrolytes, ultrafiltration and ultracentrifugation.

Millicent Fawcett
Millicent Garrett Fawcett
Location of death:
Millicent Fawcett was a prominent feminist and suffragist. She was married to Henry Fawcett, Liberal MP who often voiced Indian concerns in Parliament and was a member of the British Committee of the Indian National Congress.
In July 1867, Millicent Fawcett was asked to join the executive committee of the London National Society for Women's Suffrage and was one of the speakers at its first public meeting two years later. In 1874 she joined the Central Committee for Women's Suffrage, which merged into the new Central Committee for Women's Suffrage in 1877. In 1896 she was asked to preside over the joint meetings of the suffrage societies, which resulted in the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (NUWSS). She was President of the NUWSS from 1907 to 1919.
Through her prominent suffragist role, Fawcett met Indian women such as Sophia Duleep Singh and Mithan Lam. During the First World War, she became involved in the issue of women's social, political and educational status in India, an area in which she had become interested through her husband and retained after the conflict came to an end.

SYNTHETIC PHILOSOPHY OF CONTEMPORARY MATHEMATICS
A panoramic survey of the vast spectrum of modern and contemporary mathematics and the new philosophical possibilities they suggest. A panoramic survey of the vast spectrum of modern and contemporary mathematics and the new philosophical possibilities they suggest, this book gives the inquisitive non-specialist an insight into the conceptual transformations and intellectual orientations of modern and contemporary mathematics. The predominant analytic approach, with its focus on the formal, the elementary and the foundational, has effectively divorced philosophy from the real practice of mathematics and the profound conceptual shifts in the discipline over the last century. The first part discusses the specificity of modern (1830-1950) and contemporary (1950 to the present) mathematics, and reviews the failure of mainstream philosophy of mathematics to address this specificity. Building on the work of the few exceptional thinkers to have engaged with the "real mathematics" of their era (including Lautman, Deleuze, Badiou, de Lorenzo and Chatelet), Zalamea challenges philosophy's self-imposed ignorance of the "making of mathematics." In the second part, thirteen detailed case studies examine the greatest creators in the field, mapping the central advances accomplished in mathematics over the last half-century, exploring in vivid detail the characteristic creative gestures of modern master Grothendieck and contemporary creators including Lawvere, Shelah, Connes, and Freyd. Drawing on these concrete examples, and oriented by a unique philosophical constellation (Peirce, Lautman, Merleau-Ponty), in the third part Zalamea sets out the program for a sophisticated new epistemology, one that will avail itself of the powerful conceptual instruments forged by the mathematical mind, but which have until now remained largely neglected by philosophers.

Q: Beyond Compare 2 as Git Mergetool I am trying to use beyond compare 2 with Git as a mergetool, following this example: http://www.iokom.com/drupal/node/4
The example uses beyond compare 3, so I simply substituted my directory structure, I'm not surprised it didn't work. I have looked around, but most tutorials use BC3, and many posts here. Is BC2 compatible?
I edited my global config file as shown in the link, but get the following...
Mark@MARK-PC /c/git ((ref: re...))
$ git mergetool
fatal: bad config file line 27 in C:\Program Files (x86)\Git/etc/gitconfig

How might I go about using BC2? What does this error mean? Is it giving out about my path or are the parameters in the config wrong for BC2? Thanks in advance!

A: Beyond Compare 2 does not support 3-way merging with an ancestor so the directions as written won't work.  You can configure it to do a 2-way merge using the /savetarget= switch.  Try this configuration instead:
[merge]
tool = bc2

[mergetool "bc2"]
cmd = 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Beyond Compare 2\BC2.exe' \
  "$PWD/$LOCAL" \
  "$PWD/$REMOTE" \
  /savetarget="$PWD/$MERGED"
keepBackup = false
trustExitCode = false

Note that since it isn't able to use the ancestor file it can't detect conflicts.  You'll have to go through the files and merge everything manually.  Also, the interface is still the 2-way comparison;  you need to pull all of the changes from one file into the other and then save it.  The /savetarget switch makes it so any time you save either file it will actually overwrite that path.

Date of funeral
Died from Haemorrhage, Old age
The Longreach Leader — Saturday 17 November 1945
THE DEATH OF A PIONEER
MR. G.C. COCHRAN
After a short illness, the late Mr. George Cochran, of Bengal, in the Muttaburra district, passed away at the Muttaburra General Hospital early on Sunday morning, and was buried at the Muttaburra cemetery the same afternoon. Although notice was short, the funeral was well at tended by friends of the deceased.
The late Mr. Cochran was of a reserved nature and was highly respected by all who were privileged to know him. This grand old pioneer was actively engaged on his property right up until the time he was taken to hospital. He was born at Lochinvar, near West Maitland, New South Wales, in 1859. At an early age he was shepherding sheep at a time when the blacks were troublesome. Later he worked with his father in the carrying business, which in those days extended from West Maitland, in New South Wales, to Dalby in Queensland, so that he experienced the hardships associated with the days of that period, 80 years ago. Being always land-minded, in the year 1887 he selected a block of country in the Narribri (N.S.W.) district, subsequently disposing of this block to settle in the Moree district.
After battling the drought of 1898-1902 in New South Wales be came to the St. George district of Queensland, finally selling out from there and taking up Bengal in 1910. In the year 1887, the deceased gentleman married Miss Winifred O'Grady, of County Clare, Ireland, at West Maitland and she predeceased him in 1983. Of the eight children of the marriage, he is survived by Mrs. C. T. Kelly (Lake Huffer), Miss S. Cochran (Bengal), Mr. J. Cochran (Sunnyside) and Mr. R. Cochran (Bengal).

Although it's joining late, Apple has 900 million active iPhones to stream its content.
CUPERTINO, Calif. — Jumping belatedly into a business dominated by Netflix and Amazon, Apple announced its own TV and movie streaming service Monday, enlisting such superstars as Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Aniston and Steven Spielberg to try to overcome its rivals' head start.
Apple didn't disclose the price or the launch date except to say that Apple TV Plus will be available this fall. It will feature Apple's original shows and movies.
The video-streaming venture is fraught with risk for a company scrambling to diversify beyond its star product, the iPhone, whose sales have started to decline. Netflix, which started its streaming service in 2007, has 139 million subscribers worldwide.
In the past, of course, Apple has mostly jumped into relatively small and undeveloped markets. Streaming video, by contrast, is dominated by huge services like Netflix, Amazon and Hulu, with more seeming to be bowing into the competition daily, including AT&T's WarnerMedia, Disney and Comcast.
"Great competitors make for great consumer experiences," Netflix said in a statement. Netflix stock rose $5.22 to $366.23 Monday. Apple's stock fell $2.31 to $188.74.
Among the upcoming programs on the new Apple service will be Winfrey-created documentaries; a show about TV morning talk shows, starring Aniston, Reese Witherspoon and Steve Carell; a futuristic drama starting Momoa; and a sci-fi show called "Amazing Stories" from Spielberg.
Video will be delivered to iPhones and iPads, Apple's own Apple TV device, smart TVs and, soon, streaming gadgets from Roku and Amazon.
Netflix, which isn't included in the Apple TV app, has turned "binge watching" into a worldwide phenomenon become a powerhouse in both Silicon Valley and Hollywood since it shifted its emphasis on original programming in 2013..
Apple was long focused on making on gadgets: iPhones, iPads, computers. Apple co-founder Steve Jobs toyed with the idea of building a powerful TV business but couldn't pull it off before his death in 2011. It has taken his successor, CEO Tim Cook, nearly eight years to draw up the plan the company will now try to execute.
Industry analyst Colin Gillis of Chatham Road Partners said Apple TV Plus is "not going to be a Netflix killer." And Martin Garner of CCS Insights said the service so far lacks "the full range and diversity of content available through Netflix, Amazon and others."
Winfrey received a standing ovation during her appearance at Apple's announcement Monday in Cupertino.
"I'm joining forces with Apple," she said. "They're in a billion pockets, y'all."
Apple News Plus, the news subscription service, will include such major papers as The Wall Street Journal and the Los Angeles Times. Other major newspaper publishers have reportedly been wary of Apple's terms.
Apple said advertisers won't track readers inside the app. That will distinguish it from Facebook and Google, the other major online news hubs.
The company's new Mastercard credit card, called Apple Card, won't have any late fees or annual fees and will offer 2 percent cash back.
