The interest in student loans shifted to scholarship grant-in-aid. In 1947, after the death of Rotary founder Paul Harris, the emphasis toward a broader outlook on Rotary surfaced with increased emphasis on contributions to The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International. However, at this time the push was for Club, not individual contributions.
In 1960, the Club sponsored its second club, the Rotary Club of Crestwood-Sunset Hills. It was during that same Rotary year that the district number changed to 605. In 1969, the Club sponsored the Rotary Club of Southwest St. Louis County.
In the 1970s, a new phase of emphasis took hold in the local Club objectives, that of contributions to The Rotary Foundation (TRF) through individual contributions. The renewed emphasis in the objectives carries to the present with a focus on yearly contributions to TRF by way of Paul Harris Fellowships, a distinctive honor and a worthy purpose. Contributions to the endowment fund of TRF are also encouraged, and those that make a contribution or pledge to do so in an estate plan are recognized as Foundation Benefactors. The Rotary Foundation is a not-for-profit corporation that supports the efforts of Rotary International to achieve world understanding and peace through international humanitarian, educational, and cultural exchange programs.
In 1989, the Club sponsored its fourth club -- the Rotary Club of Mid-St. Louis County, and it was during that time frame that the district's number was changed by the addition of a zero to become 6050. District 6050s territory was the northeastern quadrant of Missouri .
To celebrate the Club's seventy-fifth anniversary, past district governor Alan Hoener proposed that the Club sponsor a club in Russia. The Club's board of directors approved and Alan and Steve LaBarge carried the project forward. In May 1998, the Club sponsored its fifth Rotary club and its first abroad; the Rotary Club of Aginskoye -- which is located about one hundred miles north of the Russia-Mongolia border in Siberia. The Buryat people inhabit the region.
The Alan Hoener Memorial Garden was dedicated to honor Past President and Past District Governor, Alan J. Hoener. Alan died in Scotland in June 1997 while attending the RI International Convention. After completing Alan's work with the chartering ceremonies of the club in Russia, the Club decided to plant the memorial garden. Twenty-five Webster Rotarians assembled in November 1998 to plant and mulch 9 trees, 89 shrubs, and 300 daylilies. The garden, at the entrance to the Aquatic Center of the Recreational Complex of Webster Memorial Park, was dedicated in June 1999.
A major redistricting of the Missouri Rotary Districts took place in 2000. The state's four districts became three. District 6050 was revoked and a new one, District 6060-was created. The Club was assigned to District 6060, which runs along the eastern border of Missouri, from Hannibal in the north down to the southern border of Missouri in the "boot heel". The district contains approximately 65 Rotary clubs and 3,000 Rotarians.

Q: Accordion for UIView and SubViews in Swift 3 I'm trying to build an accordion style ( expand/collapse ) list in IOS/Swift 3. Was confused on which approach to follow like a static UITableView ( since my sub divisions have different types of Ui Controls in the cells ie some have checkbox ,spinner, textview etc. with labels to show configure a list of different Valves) , UIView with nested UIViews sections with an option to clip views . But both have been messed up with without any success.

Below are the links I followed
https://github.com/justinmfischer/SwiftyAccordionCells
http://www.appcoda.com/ios-static-table-view-storyboard/
https://github.com/Weebly/TableSchemer
https://github.com/Alliants/ALAccordion
Any other approach without UITableView?
Please help . Thanks in advance .

A: Static vs dynamic table will depend on your data source.  Does your data source for your table change?  If so you'll want a dynamic table, if not then you can design it out in a static one.
As for the accordion feature, what I've done in the past is to add a tap gesture recognizer to the header view of each section.  When the tap is detected I change my datasource and reload the table view.  What happens is that number of rows for section is called on reload, and I return 0 so that none of the rows show.  When tapped again you can go back to showing the normal number of rows.
To get the animation you need to use delete rows with index paths and animate it.

Queen Latifah says she won't discuss her sexuality on upcoming talk show
Tue. August 13, 2013 7:15 AM by OnTopMag.com
queen latifah on the cover of the hollywood reporter
Queen Latifah says she won't address her personal life in her upcoming syndicated talk show, The Queen Latifah Show.
In a cover story for The Hollywood Reporter, Latifah, 43, said that there are some parts of herself that she is not willing to share with her fans.
"Specifically, she is not prepared to talk about her sexuality, which has been the topic of much debate," the magazine reported.
"I don't feel the need to discuss my private life on this show or any other show," Latifah said. "There's the part of my life that the public and I share together. And there's the part that's mine to keep to myself. And that's mine. For me."
Last year, Latifah shot down rumors that she was signaling that she's gay when she performed at Long Beach Gay Pride. During her May 19 performance, Latifah told the mostly gay crowd that she was happy to be in the presence of "her people" and "I've been waiting to do this for a long time."
"That definitely wasn't the case," she later told a reporter. "I've never dealt with the question of my personal life in public. It's just not gonna happen."
The Queen Latifah Show premieres September 16.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Deserves Better
Travis White
Working in games media, I find myself struggling to backtrack and tackle previously released games. I often find myself saying "I don't have time to go back and play game X, Y, or Z right now, because game A, B, or C just came out and I need to review it or make content on it". Embargo and deadline dates need to be hit, and with how fast the gaming industry is evolving, being up to date on the latest news and storylines is key. Yet, like many, I still eventually make time for those games that hold a special place in my heart.
Games like the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Kingdom Hearts, and the original Halo trilogy all helped shape my gaming interest and passion for the medium. One game in particular that I adore though seems to get quite the amount of flack from current gamers: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. While I'm sure nostalgia helps with my admiration towards the game, it took me off guard when I noticed the current amount of negativity surrounding a game that I feel I could boot up at any point and enjoy it just as much today as I did almost a decade and a half ago.
Considered by many as the black sheep of the series, the Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion launched on 20 March, 2006 on PC and Xbox 360. Originally slated for a November 2005 release, to align with the launch of Microsoft's Xbox 360, the game was pushed into the following year, giving the extra time Bethesda certainly needed for a project of this scope. Oblivion released to universal acclaim from both fans and critics, with both praising the game's jaw-dropping graphics for the time, level of immersion unseen before, and unique interaction with the world the player was thrust into. Selling over 1.7 million copies in its first month, Oblivion has gone on to sell more than 9.5 million copies (as last recorded in 2015).
Yet, for all of the accolades the title has received over the last 12+ years, it is rarely brought up in general discussion around the series. Fans regularly touch on Skyrim's 'infinite' replayability, along with Morrowind's ability to adapt a PC-driven RPG experience to console, but rarely do fans touch on all of the groundwork Oblivion laid. Not only would it craft what would be the basis for Bethesda's open world games to come, but modern action-adventure/RPG experiences in general.
Compared to previous titles in the series, Oblivion was the first to push a stronger emphasis on its main narrative. While it isn't as forceful as its successor Skyrim, Bethesda provides the player with many quality of life fixes that do highlight questing more so than in previous adventures. At the same time, the heavy emphasis on theatrical level storytelling does reward the player for taking part in the story. With Bethesda opting out of the 'chosen hero' plot point and the player becoming more a bystander to the central plot line, is a turn off to some players. Yet, I find the passenger seat you are placed in to be an incentive to scour the province to see all of the beauty it offers.
The character creation found within the game is something that was solely unique to the series as well. While gone are the deep layers of class customization found within the series' second entry Daggerfall, Oblivion does improve upon the quite brief and peeled back character customization found in Morrowind. By letting players use a range of mechanics such as magic, ranged weapons, a spell of different hand-to-hand weapons before completing the tutorial dungeon, Oblivion helps players find the skill set that would fit their playstyle best before committing. Oblivion was also the first in the series to let the player completely customize their in game character in terms of their looks. Before, a simplistic designation of presets was available for players to choose from, due to the technical limitations at the time of Morrowind's release. Sliders ranging from nose dimensions, body build, age, and more let the player expose their creativity and let them truly design an avatar of their own.
To this day, I believe Bethesda crafted one of the best introductions to a gaming world in Oblivion. Forget the Imperial Sewers and the notoriously annoying rats . I'm talking of course about that first big step leaving the sewers, into the beautiful, lush and sprawling 22 square-mile province of Cyrodiil. The gleaming pale blue sky drapes the horizon, as rolling emerald hills go as far as you can see, only broken by the bank of a glistening river. In the distance, the player can see ornate buildings and cities that are filled with hundreds of interactive NPCs. Just across the small river in front of you lies the entrance to a dungeon in ruins, with bandits setting up camp and plotting their next move. Even in 2019, I find this moment to be breathtaking, let alone in 2006. You may be given the task of heading to Weynon Priory to deliver the Amulet of Kings to Jauffre, but you are never pushed to do so. Many of Bethesda's games let the player loose after the small tutorial portion, but as the company releases more modern iterations of their open world formula, it seems to become more directive.
In Skyrim, after escaping the initial tutorial cave with Ralof, the player is put into a similar scenario as Oblivion (given a basic objective of where to go, but not verbally forced). Yet, the player feels more funneled to going to the first objective in Skyrim. Landing right on a main road, along with the bleaker aesthetic and color tones, take the focus off of exploration and applies to linearity. The draw distance that Oblivion vastly improved on over the series' third entry Morrowind truly helps emphasize the idea of exploration and the idea of 'if you can see it, you can go there'.
Within the world is a bit more of a rollercoaster for Bethesda's fourth epic fantasy installment though. The Radiant A.I. NPC system was truly revolutionary for its time, and added a new layer of immersion for the player. Characters weren't necessarily designed to complete scripted routines to an extent, but to make choices to successfully achieve their goals. This could include eating, sleeping, reading, and speaking to other characters, and they all were dependent based on their ability to adapt to their environment, choices of other NPCs and the verbal skill of the player. For 2006, a character system of this complexity was truly unheard of. While it led to a few laughable reactions by NPCs, it laid the base for many aspects found in both modern Bethesda games and current open world experiences in general.
While the characters inhabiting them had depth, the game's dungeons themselves were a nuisance, even when the game first released. The implementation of the game's Oblivion Gates were quite unique at first. Stepping through your first Gate outside of Kvatch, into the Plains of Oblivion rivalled any experience in gaming to that date. The haunting image of hellfire and brimstone surrounding the player, paired with the depth of enemies and environments found were truly special. Well, at least for the first one. After that, it felt quite cookie-cutter. Not to mention, if players wanted to complete the main storyline, it required closing several more, with each sometimes requiring over half an hour to do so. Dungeons also suffered the same fate. While they were much more abundant than Oblivion Gates and some did change up their formulaic approach, many still felt almost identical to each other.
Hailed by some as the "first next-generation game" of its time, Oblivion made vast improvements on the groundwork laid by its older brother Morrowind. Morrowind, the third mainline entry in the Elder Scrolls series, made tremendous strides towards bringing traditional PC RPG style games to more mainstream notoriety. The biggest stride was bringing the series to the home console market, releasing on Microsoft's first generation Xbox in 2002. For all that Morrowind succeeded in with its cast of characters, its technological limitations of the time caused environmental issues within the game. The view distance, being the most glaring issue, was limited to only several feet in front of the player (especially when playing the Xbox port of the game). Bethesda put this point of concern at the forefront of Oblivion's development, and with the vastly superior advancement in technology moving to the Xbox 360 helped remedy this.
While many 'open world' games leading up to the sixth console generation suffered from a myriad of tradeoffs, Oblivion truly felt like the first to find success in each area of the genre. Games like the early 2000s Grand Theft Auto entries showed exceptional environment development, but lacked in character design, where as Morrowind had exceptional characters, but the world was cramped and a struggle to explore. Bethesda took the opportunity it had with Oblivion's development and tried to successfully hinder as many tradeoffs as possible. NPC uniqueness was found within the game, draw distances stretched to extensive rates, all while running at a playable frame rate that wouldn't hinder the player's experience. Now, this isn't to say Oblivion completely masters all of the elements it succeeds in, because it certainly does not. Yet, what made it truly big leap for the RPG genre was its ability to not compromise features and aspects.
What might be the most underrated aspect of the game though, would be its soundtrack and audio. The advancement to all dialogue being voiced helped add a cinematic feel to the experience being offered. Voices of master class actors such as Patrick Stewart, Sean Bean and Terence Stamp gave credence to the theatrical level presentation Bethesda aimed for with the game. While the voices present shined, the variety of actors was a swing and a miss for the development team. Many NPCs shared similar voice actors, resulting in a bit of repetitiveness. However, the game's soundtrack stands so tall, to this day it is quite possibly still unrivaled. Composed by longtime series mainstay Jeremy Soule, the beautiful 26 tracks felt so natural across the 58 minutes it spanned. The grand orchestral score perfectly encapsulates the feeling of exploration, along with the grandeur of the high fantasy aesthetic found in the province of Cyrodiil. Soule focused on the soundtrack's ability to comment on the human condition and the beauty of life, comparative to focusing on one specific character's traits (something that changed moving to Skyrim's extreme focus on the Dovahkiin legend).
While the game's shortcomings are quite evident, Oblivion seems to fall victim to being the forgotten child, or the metaphoric middle sibling. It was released in somewhat of a limbo period in gaming, with the industry getting its first taste of high definition gaming. Launching during the initial year of a console's life usually proves to be a learning period for many developers, with many trying to become acquainted to the hardware their product is being formed to play on. Yet, for the handful of issues the game displayed, it still proves to be a beautiful and enjoyable experience in 2019.
Contrary to its flaws, Oblivion laid the foundation for what the modern console RPG could be, by finding a sweet spot that fed the needs of both hardcore RPG fans and casual gamers. While it failed in some regards it attempted, many of the mechanics and gameplay aspects that succeeded helped lay the foundation for the current generation of modern RPGs. It may not be considered the strongest entry in the Elder Scrolls series by a minority of fans, but it deserves more recognition for what it has done for not only for the series, but open world experiences found in modern games today.

The Broadsheet: February 1st
BYKristen Bellstrom
February 1, 2016, 12:55 PM UTC
Good morning, Broadsheet readers! Hillary Clinton heads into the today's Iowa caucus with some big backers, the SAGs school the Oscars, and Liz Cheney throws her hat back into the ring. Have a fantastic Monday.
EVERYONE'S TALKING
• Take notes, Oscars. A flurry of awards from the Screen Actors Guild Awards and the Sundance Film Festival provided a stark contrast to the diversity-impaired Oscars. Among the winners: Queen Latifah, Uzo Aduba, Viola Davis, and Idris Elba. Time
ALSO IN THE HEADLINES
• Hillary's fans... Just in time for today's Iowa caucus, the New York Times editorial board is endorsing Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination, calling her "one of the most broadly and deeply qualified presidential candidates in modern history." Clinton also picked up a stamp of approval from Lilly Ledbetter, the activist who made it easier for women to challenge their employers over unfair pay.
• ...vs. Bernie's booster. While Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has yet to endorse a presidential candidate, Fortune's Tory Newmyer argues that she's made a better case for Bernie Sanders than the Vermont Senator has made for himself. Fortune
• Donald's discriminating? Elizabeth Mae Davidson, a former paid organizer for Donald Trump who was fired this month, has accused his campaign of gender discrimination, alleging that men were paid more for the same jobs and were allowed to plan and speak at rallies, while her requests to do so were ignored. She also said the presidential candidate once told her and a fellow volunteer: "You guys could do a lot of damage," referring to their looks. New York Times
• Being Belle. For Belle McElroy, protagonist of Maureen Sherry's new novel, getting groped on the trading floor and shrugging off lewd remarks is just part of working on Wall Street. But while Belle's on-the-job trials are fictional, many of them were inspired by the real life of Sherry, once a managing director at the failed New York-based investment bank, Bear Stearns. Fortune
• Uncertainty over Ursula. Xerox CEO Ursula Burns defended the decision to split her 109-year-old company in two, insisting that it wasn't driven by activist investor Carl Icahn. It remains unclear what role—if any—she will play in the post-split companies. WSJ
• Down under duel. In her first-ever Grand Slam final, Angelique Kerber upset Serena Williams to win the 2016 Australian Open. SI
MOVERS AND SHAKERS: Claudia Fan Munce, a 30-year veteran of the venture group at IBM, has joined New Enterprise Associates as a venture advisor. Anne Richards has been appointed CEO of M&G Investments, an investment management company under the Prudential Group umbrella.
MPW INSIDER MONDAYS
Each week, Fortune asks our Insider Network — an online community of prominent people in business and beyond — for career and leadership advice. Here's some of the best of what we heard last week.
• It's no time. Sarah Kauss, founder and CEO of S'well, explains why she's resolved to make 2016 "the year of no." Fortune
• Invest in relationships. One of the biggest mistakes a founder can make, say Monarq's Diana Murakhovskaya and Irene Ryabaya, is to think of fundraising as just a single moment in time. Fortune
• Time to trend. Is your brand looking to capture this year's zeitgeist? Getty Images CMO Susan Smith Ellis has six predictions for the big trends of 2016. Fortune
• An 'A' for effort. In the wake of the White House's announcement that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission will start collecting pay data from companies in an effort to narrow the wage gap, Fortune's Claire Zillman takes a look back on the steps Obama has taken over the past seven years to promote equal pay. Fortune
• India's paradox. This fascinating story—part of series—digs into the reasons that women's participation in India's workforce has fallen since 2005, even as the nation's economy has grown, education levels have climbed and fertility has dropped. New York Times
• Birchbox's make-under. Beauty sample subscription startup Birchbox, led by CEO Katia Beauchamp, is cutting 15% of staff and suspending operations in Canada. Bloomberg
• Cheney 2.0. Liz Cheney, the eldest daughter of Dick Cheney, is expected to announce today that she will run for Wyoming's lone House seat. She previously ran for, and lost, a U.S Senate bid. Politico
• Novel strategy. Romance novelist Meredith Wild successfully self-published her work on sites like Amazon. But to get her novels into bookstores, she decided to take her independent business to the next level, founding her own imprint and acquiring the works of other self-published writers. New York Times

Manmana bhava is a divine command that means to always have Lord Krishna completely and blissfully in ones thoughts, to absorb oneself in Him. This is also established in the Vedic scriptures where we find in the Taittiriyaranyaka Upanisad III.XII beginning vedaham etam stating: The Resplendent Supreme Lord more radiant then thousands of suns is realised by absorbing the mind in Him by meditation. Realising Him Him one attains moksa liberation from material existence. There exists no other path to immortality. This devotional absorption in Lord Krishna is of such magnitude and intensity that its meditation becomes a vision and the vision becomes an ever flowing current of devotion that is so vivid that the experience actually enters the realm of reality. Mad-bhakta is to offer all ones loving emotions to Lord Krishna enthralled by love overflowing with enthusiasm, exuberance and excitement. Mad-yagi is to worship Lord Krishna with love. To install Him in ones heart as their personal worshipable diety. Such worship is the performance of the entire services that a liege administers to His sovereign on a daily basis upon waking untill sleeping. Yagi comes from yajana which is synonymous with pujana or worship and denotes aradhanam the most equisite loving worship. Therefore it is not a mere dry, formal observation of ceremonial ritual enacted out of duty. It is love flowing from the heart. It is a testament of devotion from the eternal svarupa or ones immortal spiritual form. Mad yagi should be interpreted as offering ones self to Lord Krishna as a brother, as a parent or as a beloved with a heart full of love. Mam namaskuru is to enshrine Lord Krishna in the heart with the utmost, love, devotion and faith. Namas comes from namanam meaning obeisance. Such obeisance is not a mere habitual genuflexion; but a sublime expression of sincere gratitude and humility that constitutes an emotion of love felt internally. If a blessed devotee of Lord Krishna arrives at this exalted vista of bhakti or exclusive loving devotion then the Supreme Lord will not hesitate to have their eternal individual association with Him in the immortal spiritual worlds. This is the truth that He Himself promises. It should never be interpreted as being just a metaphor or mere flowery prose. Such a hypothesis would not be genuine and incorrect. Wherever there is a heart that has so much love for Lord Krishna then there is as much love from Lord Krishna back to them. Lord Krishnas love is such that He finds it impossible to bear the separation from such surrendered and dedicated devotees and therefore without delay He personally brings them to Him directly in their eternal spiritual body even while their physical body is concluding its last life in material existence. So it should be clearly and emphatically understood that the Supreme Lord Krishnas solemn promise to His surrendered devotees is the total truth and nothing other than truth for which He pledges to vouch safe for His devotees for all eternity.

Development, survival and reproduction of the predatory mite Amblyseius swirskii (Athias-Henriot) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) were assessed when fed on cattail pollen (Typha latifolia L.), dried fruit mite (Carpoglyphus lactis L.), or on two artificial diets. The basic artificial diet (AD1) was composed of honey, sucrose, tryptone, yeast extract, and egg yolk. This diet was enriched (AD2) by adding hemolymph from oak silkworm pupae (Antheraea pernyi (Guérin-Méneville)). Mites fed on C. lactis and AD2 had shorter immature and preoviposition periods than those fed on the other diets. The total number of deposited eggs was significantly higher for females fed on AD2 than for those maintained on the other diets. The intrinsic rate of increase (rm) of A. swirskii was highest on AD2 and C. lactis, followed by T. latifolia pollen, and AD1. In conclusion, the artificial diet AD2 supported development and reproduction of A. swirskii to the same extent as a factitious prey which is routinely used in the mass rearing of the phytoseiid. Our findings indicate the potential of artificial diets for the mass production of this economically important predatory mite.

When we manufacture springs, there are many things we must take into account to ensure that the piece we create suits the job it is needed for. One of these considerations is the material it is made from. One material that we work with on a regular basis is stainless steel. So what is this material, and why is it so often used to create springs and wire forms?
Stainless steel is the name given to a range of types and grades of steel which are used for corrosion resistant applications. The metals are iron alloys and contain a minimum of 10.5% chromium. They can also contain nickel, titanium and copper amongst other materials which improve their structure and strength.
To be classed as a stainless steel, the metal must be corrosion resistant to a certain level.
What are Some of the Properties of Stainless Steel?
As this metal is particularly corrosion resistant, it is often used in food applications, such as in cutlery. This is due to the fact that it does not rust like ordinary steel, so is safe to use for eating utensils.
Stainless steel is also often used in architecture and can be seen in the iconic point of the Chrysler Building in New York and the Sibelius Monument in Helsinki.
The metal also has many medical applications due to its ability to resist corrosion. Many medical tools and instruments are made from stainless steel as well as surgical and dental implants.
Why is Stainless Steel Used for Springs?
Stainless steel is a popular material for use in springs. This is largely due to the corrosion and heat resistance present in the metal. As the material is hard-wearing, it makes it an ideal option for many applications.
You can find varying levels of elasticity, heat-resistance and other important properties in different stainless steels, so this is a material that can serve a huge range of requirements.
What are the Types of Stainless Steel?
Stainless steel is a material that we often work with at Airedale Springs, however, we also work with a range of other materials, dependent on the requirements of any particular project. If you would like to discuss your next project with one of our experts, please don't hesitate to get in touch by calling us on 01535 643456 or by dropping an email to sales@airedalesprings.co.uk and we will be more than happy to help.
In the meantime, make sure to take a look at our materials page to find out more about our springs and read our blog about choosing the right materials for springs.


This fine arrangement features an expressive and memorable melody that moves along nicely in 6/8 meter. Alan's engaging text exhorts us to sing our story both literally and through our lives of discipleship and service. The voicing develops from unison to three-part, and ends with two voices and a graceful Alleluia descant. The lively flute line skips and dances over the keyboard and voices; for more festive use, Karen has also provided parts for two violins, cello, and handbells. You will find many occasions to sing this delightful piece as a choir or as an assembly hymn.

May I ask forum a stupid question even if it is not related to Kanotix? I have not done much bash scripting and using export is new to me and it drives me crazy! If "anything goes" here maybe someone can help? It is so simple.
Start with making var1 global as an empty string by export from command line.
But why can't var1 get a value when using export from the script? I must have missed something fundamental!!
Thanks if you have patience to educate me.
Set an environment variable. Mark each name to be passed to child processes in the environment.
I'm going to guess that it will echo what you expect, since it's a child process.
In the first example, it's echoing blank value, and there is no childprocess, so I'd guess that's a default behavior of some type for export.
after having done export var1="" a couple of times in between whereever needed.
I see that I have to learn essentials about processes, variable scope, menaing of "." etc.. For instance, the export command is said to work through CHILD PROCESSES, but where in the process tree is then my ". export.sh" executed and where is "echo "$var1"" executed. Where are the parents and where are the childs?
And finally, like in the case of export_import.sh script, both functions . export.sh and . import.sh, seems to run on the same "level" in the process tree and import.sh seems not to be a child of export.sh.
There are thousands of authors on the web re-writing about simple things like "if, then else..." that noone actually needs much of. But I have not seen good explanations of the more difficult things like how this actually works.
Has anyone possibly a good source on this information?
bash is one of the least logical programming languages I've seen, to be honest. While it's fun learning how to work with it, that fun for me comes from learning how to do things in extremely random and unpredictable ways, and to protect against extremely random and unpredictable outcomes.
While learning enough bash to do my du-fixes script, I came across oddities that simply do not make ANY sense in terms of logical program flow, so I used tricks to bypass these oddities once I realized that I couldn't solve the problems any other way.
But that's bash, it's also a very powerful language for the areas its strong in, and it comes out of a very old system, so I think it carries a whole lot of legacy thinking in it, old ideas that is.
I think if I wanted to make a real program, I'd learn python, a modern language that is designed to make sense to the programmers who wrote it, a language built by and for programmers, that is. Not a glue language, not a way to work around strange behaviors etc, not a way to get the most efficient execution, but a way to get the desired outcome as cleanly and as quickly as possible. That's why the early google stuff, for example, in many parts was done in python.

The Average Earnings Information System (ISPV) provides accurate and comparable data on earnings and hours paid of employees in the Czech Republic. The ISPV contains data from regular statistical survey called the Quarterly Survey of Average Earnings that is included in the Programme of Statistical Surveys maintained by the Czech Statistical Office (CZSO) and published every year as a Decree on the Programme of Statistical Surveys. Quarterly Survey of Average Earnings represents the EU-wide harmonized Structure of Earnings Survey (SES) that provides detailed and comparable information on relationships between the level of remuneration, personal characteristics of employees and their employer. As for main variables, the ISPV provides information on the level and structure of remuneration (i.e. the level of the gross monthly wages and hourly earnings and their structure, i.e. bonuses and allowances, special payments for shift work, etc.) as well as on working period (i.e. number of hours actually paid, annual days of holiday leave, other days of paid absence, e.g. paid sick leave days). An essential part of ISPV is the Regional Earnings Statistics (RSCP) which provides detailed information on the wage levels in individual regions of the Czech Republic. The most important variables within ISPV are the gross monthly wage (salary), hourly earnings and worked and non-worked hours. ISPV results are used also during the collective bargaining. The ISPV results are used by human resources officers and company managers, too. Survey results allow them to compare the level of remuneration provided to their own employees with the other ones and thereby determine the optimum wage level in the company. The ISPV provide the employees with interesting information on wage level of individual occupations that can be used as an argument when requesting their current employer for wage increase or when looking for a new job. Last but not least, the wage statistics is also used by the economists and students within their research. Below you can find some of the studies that used the ISPV results.

The two works have several similarities. Firstly, they are verses about two young ladies who are left to face the challenges of the world at a very early age, for example, Aurora is left an orphan at the age of thirteen years when her father died (Browning, 2013). Jane Eyre is also a story of an underprivileged, unloved orphan, who at the end of her story finds love and family as well as personal riches (Bronte, 1897).
Both works work, Aurora Leigh and Jane Eyre, shows us that they were written in a period of major social problems. The sufferings that the two young ladies go through are clear indicators, for example, Jane Eyre, who is an orphan, she is unloved and underprivileged (Bronte, 1897). They also show us that it was particularly a difficult time to become a professional woman. The poem also reveals a distrust of socialist theory, in that Browning feared that communist-style communities.
Barrett's work refers to Shake Spears romantic work of Romeo and Juliet. The poem is about a young girl who goes through challenges of life in search of love.
The allusion is important to Aurora Leigh because it encourages her that in the end she will be happy despite the challenges. This is also same to Jane Eyre's story who in the end received loved and happiness after all her sufferings (Bronte, 1897).
The lines that interest me in this poem are "Let no one be called happy till his death" Therefore the controlling meter here is the end of life, since the end is what justifies the means. Aurora Leigh is a mystical verse as it has been written in a mysterious tune, for example, the use of words like "Tormented by the quickened blood of roots, And softly pricked by golden crocus-sheaves" insinuates some form of mystery. Barrett comes out as a progressive woman who could see better things in future even for the most troubled individual, and as the poem ends by saying that "let no one till death be called unhappy", she wrote the poem so as to give hope to the desperate people so a to encourage them that as long as they are still alive, they stand a chance of living a happy life.

The Dr Küss abandoned hospital

The old abandoned sanatorium
Nord du pays, France
We are a few months away from the twentieth century. Tuberculosis remains a scourge that we can't control or even contain. The sanatorium which opened in 1899 has two missions. If the first is to treat patients, the second aims to focus on research and the means to prevent contagion.
After all, we must remember that tuberculosis is an infectious and contagious disease for which no cure will exist in France before 1921. Provoked by a mycobacterium, the pulmonary tuberculosis (or consumption) is by far the most widespread. The symptoms range goes from cough fever to loss of appetite resulting in weight loss.
Let's come back to the Dr. Küss hospital, would you. We must know that patients in this sanatorium were welcomed in an environment of relaxation and various activities to occupy them. In fact, sanatoriums was more resting places that real care. At the Dr. Küss place, the patients were able to pass their time in the games room, disco, library, at the radio club and much more.
In the 1920s, the complex will be expanded and in the 1960s, the sanatorium will merge with another hospital built thirty years earlier.
Today, faced with the needs and technologies whose building can offer, the sanatorium has been gradually abandoned in late 1990. Today, it is desert, left to itself and taggers in the region.
Interested by this place? Here are more pictures of the Dr Küss abandoned hospital.

Q: Extract text from a text file and write in a different format Hi I'm trying to extract some lines of text from a file generated from a program and write to another text file in a different format using python.

Thanks

A: Some things aren't quite clear, like whether you need more parameters than just the "Detector Gain" ones or where the numbers come from (since they don't appear in your example).
However, this might get you to where you need to be:
from collections import OrderedDict

D = OrderedDict()
for field in data.split(','):
    if ':' in field:
        k = field
    else:
        D[k]= field.strip()

with open(r"C:\temp\detector_gain.txt", 'w') as outfile:
    print("START_TARGET_REGISTRY", file=outfile)
    for k, v in D.items():
        if "Detector Gain" in k:
           print(k, v, sep=',', file=outfile)
    print("END_TARGET_REGISTRY", file=outfile)

Since the format of the data seems to be CATEGORY_1:KEY_1,VALUE_1,CATEGORY_2:KEY_2,VALUE_2... we break the data into fields at each comma with the split method.
Then we loop through each field, looking for a : character, which tells us that we're reading a CATEGORY:KEY field.
Once we have the CATEGORY:KEY field, we know the next field will be the associated value. So we add that to a Python dictionary, which maps keys to values. I chose the OrderedDict dictionary in case the order of the fields is important.
At the end we read through the dictionary we constructed, looking for the "Detector Gain" fields. Then we print them to an outfile - you can see how we open it for writing with a context manager.
If you're on Python 2 also do from __future__ import print_function.

Noche de vino tinto (1966) és una pel·lícula del director hispano-portuguès José Maria Nunes. L'estil rupturista de la cinta és coherent amb la forma de treballar de Nunes, que va formar part del moviment conegut com l'Escola de Barcelona. Noche de vino tinto forma part de la llista dels bàsics de cinema català.

Argument
La trama gira entorn d'un noi  i una noia que es troben casualment una nit en una taverna del Barri Xino de Barcelona. Ambdós marcats per diferents desenganys amorosos decideixen recórrer els carrers de la ciutat a la recerca de tasques i bars per tastar els seus vins negres. Mentre deambulen per la Ciutat Comtal els protagonistes intercanvien tot de diàlegs inconnexos.

Comentaris

Censura
Nunes va escriure el guió en sis dies després que la censura del règim franquista no aprovés un guió previ que portava per títol Nochera. Noche de vino tinto sí que va passar els tràmits pertinents i, a més, va ser qualificat amb la titulació d'interès especial cinematogràfic. Aquest caràcter dotava al projecte de facilitats econòmiques i li obria les portes per a un millor finançament, que va obtenir gràcies a la productora Filmscontacto de Jacinto Esteva.

Casting
Núria Espert anava a protagonitzar tant Nochera com Noche de vino tinto. Tanmateix, entre la denegació del primer film i l'aprovació del segon l'actriu catalana va signar nous compromisos laborals. Finalment, va ser la italiana Serena Vergano qui va donar vida al paper. El protagonista masculí va ser interpretat per Enrique Irazoqui.

Vida comercial
La pel·lícula es va estrenar al cinema Publi Cinema en el marc de les Sessions d'Art i Assaig substituint la cinta Sueños d'Ingmar Bergman. Va ser tan notòria la seva acollida per part del públic que va restar en cartell durant trenta-set sessions. El director de la pel·lícula va arribar a fer col·loquis durant els passis nocturns a les diferents sales de Barcelona. A Madrid la pel·lícula no va tenir gaire repercussió. Posteriorment a la seva estrena la pel·lícula s'ha projectat en diverses retrospectives, cicles o sessions a diferents filmoteques, cineclubs i centres culturals.

Festivals i nominacions
La pel·lícula va ser presentada el 14 de febrer de l'any 1967 a la IV edició de la Setmana del Nou Cinema Espanyol de Molins de Rei celebrada a la localitat llobregatenca. Noche de vino tinto va ser admesa per optar als Premis Sindicals Cinematogràfics de l'any 1966.

Elon Musk may have suffered a setback over his plans to turn his Tesla motor manufacturer private, but he could see an even bigger challenge emerging from Europe.
Germany's Audi has taken the wraps off its e-tron all-electric SUV, unveiled in Musk's own backyard.
The company revealed the five-seat, all-wheel-drive e-tron on Monday night in San Francisco and it has received a positive response for its sleek styling and promises on performance.
Its two electric motors give the battery enough power to provide a range of 248 miles on a full charge. The batteries can be charged up to 80% capacity in about 30 minutes. Nor does it lack acceleration. Audi says the e-tron can achieve 0 to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds in boost mode.
That compares favourably to e-tron's closest competitor, the Tesla Model X which claims to be capable of up to 295 miles on a full charge, and Jaguar's I-Pace electric crossover which offers a 220-mile range.
The e-tron is unmistakably an Audi, with a familiar bodyframe and some new functions controlled via two interior touchscreens. It is the first Audi to come equipped with an Amazon Alexa and 'virtual side mirror' technology. The company is working with Amazon on the supply of home chargers.
Audi first announced its e-tron range in 2016 as part of parent company Volkswagen Group's pledge to electrify its entire range by 2030.

Q: Change the property of entire files in folder in Visual Studio 2008 project I was adding a folder to my visual studio 2008 project, by dragging and dropping from explorer. I want to change the 'copy to output directory' property of the entire files in that folder to 'Copy Always'.
The problem is that the folder contains many subfolders, and so does the subfolders..so it was a little bit annoying not to be able to block all files and change the property in one step.
Is there a way to change the property of all the files in a folder containing many subfolders in one procedure?
Many Thanks...

A: Just expand all the folders. Select all the files at once, and change the Build Action to "Copy Always". You can select the top item, hold shift, select the last item and that will select all items.

A: If you really have a lot of sub-folder & files then you can try these steps

*

*Create am empty project, add your folder to the project

*Save the project and open the project file in a good text editor

*This project file will now have all files for which you want to change the build action

*Remove all other tags other than content tags (these refer to your files)

*Do simple find & replace to replace //>/n (slash & angled bracket followed by new line) with ">/n<CopyToOutputDirectory>Always<//CopyToOutputDirectory>/n<//Content>". (note that I use notepad++ and hence have escaped slashes). You can always leave out new lines if your tool doesn't support it. You may even try regex find & replace if your tool supports it.

*You may have to adjust file path (if your new project has different folder hierarchy) - this can be achieved by find & replace Include=".

*Paste these content nodes into the project file that you want to modify

A: Only way I know is to edit the csproj file. You could create a utility to help you do this.
A quick test i did yielded the following.
<Content Include="Test.css" />

After changing the properties...
<Content Include="Test.css">
  <CopyToOutputDirectory>Always</CopyToOutputDirectory>

Why the Sept. 11 attacks aren't really like Pearl Harbor
Published 3:22 pm Friday, September 10, 2021
BY LAWRENCE B.A. HATTER
Newspaper Columnist
WASHINGTON INLANDER
9/11 changed everything. Or so was the oft-repeated mantra at the time. As we approach the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, it is necessary for Americans to reflect on the memory of that day and the long shadow it has cast over the 21st century.
Everyone remembers where they were on Sept. 11, 2001. For those who lived through it, 9/11 is one of those touchstone moments in American history. People compared it to other monumental historical events, like the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963 or the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.
Pearl Harbor, heralding the entry of the United States into the Second World War, seemed like an apt analogy in 2001, as NATO mobilized to attack Osama Bin Laden and al-Qaida in Afghanistan.
No historical analogy is perfect. While we might identify commonalities between historical events, history never actually repeats itself. The attack on Pearl Harbor did not play out in real time for Americans in 1941 in the same way that 9/11 did on network television in 2001. While there were civilian casualties at Pearl Harbor, the main Japanese target was a military installation; 9/11 deliberately targeted civilians. The Japanese military were the conventional armed forces of a nation-state; the terrorists of 9/11 were the secret operatives of a transnational organization.
For all these differences, though, the attack on Pearl Harbor and 9/11 occupied a similar place in the American popular imagination in 2001. Both attacks hit unsuspecting Americans hard. Pearl Harbor and 9/11 revealed the innocence and vulnerability of the United States in 1941 and 2001. And, in the immediate aftermath at least, both events galvanized the American people to prosecute righteous wars to avenge our dead.
But what about 20 years later? How does the way we remember 9/11 in 2021 compare with how Americans remembered Pearl Harbor in 1961? The answer reveals how our memory of these two events is inextricably linked with our understanding of the conflicts that they spawned.
The early anniversaries of Pearl Harbor mobilized the collective memory of Americans to drive the war effort against the Axis powers. Pearl Harbor served as a rallying cry for Americans to ensure that the United States would "never again" face such an embarrassing military disaster by exacting a terrible price from Japan for its "sneak" attack. By 1961, the scene had changed. The Second World War was long over. Japan was now an important strategic ally of the United States in East Asia in the global fight against communism. The memory of Pearl Harbor changed to reflect these new geopolitical realities. President Kennedy's speech commemorating the 20th anniversary reminded Americans that they would always remember where they were on Dec. 7, 1941. But he also assured his audience that "we face entirely different challenges on this Pearl Harbor Day."
Americans had moved on.
We remember where we were on 9/11 because we're still there, stuck in a frozen conflict that was still ongoing up until a few days ago.
For the first time since 2001, it seems likely that Americans will reflect differently on the 20th anniversary of 9/11. Polls suggest that the majority of Americans support the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan. But the heartbreaking scenes of Afghan people climbing onto U.S. airplanes in their desperate bid to escape from Kabul inevitably make us question whether the war was worth the immeasurable suffering and sacrifices of the past 20 years.
Americans in 1961 had no such qualms about the United States's participation in the Second World War when they commemorated Pearl Harbor Day. The Allies had won. Nation-building projects in West Germany and Japan had proved wildly successful. Victory had come at the cost of American lives, but no one seriously questioned the value of that great sacrifice. It was easier for Americans to commemorate Pearl Harbor Day in 1961 because it seemed like the past. They felt that the United States had been on the right side of history then and that it was now engaged in an equally important global venture to protect democracy from Soviet aggression.
It is unclear how long a shadow the withdrawal from Afghanistan will cast on our collective memory of 9/11. The end of the NATO mission may mark a turning point in our relationship with the Sept. 11 attacks. America's longest war had turned into a frozen conflict long ago. The withdrawal was probably the only feasible conclusion for the Western powers at this stage.
In 2021, the comparison between Pearl Harbor and 9/11 seems much less powerful than it did 20 years ago. The Pearl Harbor analogy created unrealistic expectations about the kind of war that the United States was about to fight and the sort of victory that it might achieve. There was no political will under either Republican or Democratic administrations to fight a total war in Afghanistan. Indeed, a conventional conflict was not a viable option for fighting terrorist organizations, which did not rely on state infrastructure or popular will to mobilize their campaigns.

Q: ECSlidingViewController with static UITableView I'm developing a application using ECSliding framework. Everything was going well until I add a UItableViewController as the topViewController. I'm facing an error while trying to scroll the static table view. I could identify where is the problem but I don't know how to solve it. If I delete the command bellow (declared at viewDidLoad method), my UITableView starts to scroll normally.
 [self.view addGestureRecognizer:self.slidingViewController.panGesture];

Code used to set the UITableViewController as the topViewController
 self.topViewController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"Driver"];

topViewController is a property from the ECSlidingViewController
I have found another similar question on another post, but there, the guy was using a UINavigationController as the topViewController.
Please let me know if someone can give me a hand.
thanks,
Marcos.

A: I see that you solved your issue but per-comments other people are looking for this solution as well, so I will give some information about this.
The problem here is that when you add a pan gesture to the UITableView subclass it messes with the current gestures used for scrolling. When you pan it no longer knows what you are after and you can end up with inconsistent behavior (or behavior you did not want).
There are a couple of different solutions that may work pending on your actual needs:

ONE:
If you become UIGestureRecognizerDelegate you can implement the method:
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)otherGestureRecognizer
{
    return TRUE;
}

This allows you to listen for multiple gestures. Just make sure you set your gesture's delegate to self
TWO:

If you specify what direction you want the new gesture to implement you may cease having scrolling problems:
   UISwipeGestureRecognizer* swipe;

   swipe = [[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handleSwipeL)] autorelease];
   swipe.direction = UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft;
   [view addGestureRecognizer:swipe];

   swipe = [[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handleSwipeR)] autorelease];
   swipe.direction = UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight; // default
   [view addGestureRecognizer:swipe];

Obviously this is using a swipe, but it could easily be modified. This says that you do not want to worry about vertical gestures and you can allow the table to continue its default behavior. You may still need to implement the delegate method in ONE though, to verify that it listens for multiple gestures.


The red carpet at the 2018 Golden Globe Awards was filled with celebrities dressed in black as a statement of solidarity with women and men who have faced sexual harassment. Connie Britton's all-black ensemble included a sweater with "Poverty is Sexist" embroidered across the front. The sweater was made as part of a partnership with Lingua Franca.
Connie wore the sweater to bring awareness to ONE's Poverty is Sexist campaign, which aims to put a stop to extreme poverty by breaking down the barriers holding girls and women back. The data shows that women and girls in developing countries are hit hardest by extreme poverty and helping them thrive is the most effective way to lift everyone out.
Connie has been a longtime champion of ONE and Poverty is Sexist. In March, she teamed up with Robin Wright to deliver ONE's open letter demanding action on the critical global crisis of girls education at the United Nations. She also took part in ONE's #GirlsCount video petition alongside Jessica Williams and Phoebe Robinson of 2 Dope Queens, and previously starred in ONE's PSA calling for action on the Ebola crisis.
On a night when so many amazing activists are sending an important message about equality, we were proud and grateful to see Connie make such a powerful statement. It's critical that the conversation about gender inequality include the women who are hit hardest by it. None of us are equal until all of us are equal.


an you tell we are ready for snow here? The children started with "regular" snowflakes, made with my sweet mother who came to our house to teach "Five in a Row" with the grade-schoolers.... they had so much fun!
And then we saw these snowflakes! Wow!
Amazingly enough, they are not difficult to make at all.... Daniel helped make this one.
You can go here to see how to make them yourselves~ have fun, but don't blame me if you end up with a blizzard!
Oh my daughter will love making these. Thanks for the information.
That is a cool looking snowflake! We will definitely have to make some, since paper snowflakes are all we see down here in South Georgia! We just enjoy the snowy white cotton fields instead! They are very beautiful and not as messy!
Love the photo of the snowflakes in the window.
Lovely post Susan! Great ideas...thanks for sharing!
That is quite the snowflake!
so fun! we need to make snowflakes tomorrow!


Marcie has agreed to do ONE of the world's really great trails with me in the next year or two and I've been researching the possibilities. It has to be a trail that qualifies as one of the great ones and one which we have a reasonable chance of completing.
First, let's define my idea of a 'great hike'. There are dozens of hikes that could be considered great because of their magnificent scenery, like the Inca Trail (20 miles, ending at Machu Picchu ), the Torres del Paine "W" circuit (50 miles through the magnificent Patagonia mountains), and the Tour du Mont Blanc (105 miles through Italy, Switzerland and France) to name a few. Likewise, there are many trails that have such historical significance that they could also be considered great, such as the Scottish National Trail (470 miles, traversing the whole of Scotland), the Santa Fe Trail (870 miles from Fort Leavenworth to Santa Fe), and the Camino del Santiago (the famous 500 mile pilgrimage to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia). But in my opinion, a truly great trail ought to include not only spectacular scenery and historical significance, but be long – really long – say, 1000 miles or so long.
I also crossed off any of the historical, but incomplete trails like the Oregon Trail and the Mormon Trail, since large portions of these trails no longer exist, cross private land and/or follow highways.
Finally, I've also eliminated several hikes that are at high altitude, like hiking to the top of Kilimanjaro (the highest peak in Africa at 19,340 feet), the Mt. Everest base camp trek (a couple weeks of trekking at altitudes ranging from 15,000 feet to 18,000 feet), the Snowman trek in Bhutan (traversing 200 miles and eleven passes, most of which are higher than 16,000 feet), and several hikes in South America. Marcie has always had problems adjusting to higher altitudes, and we're finding that it's taking both of us longer to acclimate as we get older.
Next month, we'll be doing sort of a qualifying trek in England; the Thames Path, which is a 184 mile walk from the headwaters of the Thames River to its terminus at the sea in London. While it's much shorter and easier than one of the great hikes, and we will be stopping at pubs and hotels each night, we'll still be carrying 20+ pound packs. Despite being a whole lot wimpier than one of the great ones, it will, hopefully, give us an idea as to whether we're still capable of hiking long distances carrying a pack. If the Thames Path works out, we'll try a real backpacking trip – where we actually sleep on the ground – and see how that goes. We're taking baby steps here.
Map of the Great Trail - Canada. We're talking a serious hike here.
The Great Trail – Canada. This is the longest recreational trail in the world, extending 14,913 miles through 13 provinces of Canada, and touching three oceans; the Atlantic, the Pacific and the Arctic. The idea for the trail began in 1992, and it was completed just one year ago in August of 2017. Originally, it was called the Trans-Canada Trail, and was a mere 7,100 miles, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Sarah Jackson became the first woman to complete the Trans-Canada Trail in June of 2017, taking two years to do it. To my knowledge, no one has of yet completed the entire Great Trail of Canada, although I'm sure there are hikers pushing to become the first. Hiking it will require a commitment of at least 3-4 years, or more like 5-6 years at our 'geezer speed'! That's a rather large percentage of our remaining years, so while it may, in theory, be doable by us, I don't think it's a real contender.
Appalachian Trail (AT). This is the granddaddy of American trails, and is the longest, hiking only trail (no horses, llamas, bicycles or motorized vehicles allowed) in the world at approximately 2,200 miles. It traverses 14 states, starting at Springer Mountain, Georgia and ending at Mount Katahdin, Maine, although it can be extended southward to the Florida Keys and all the way to Newfoundland if those piddly 2,200 miles aren't enough. While more than 2 million hikers walk at least part of the trail each year, the vast majority are day hikers or section backpackers, traversing only a small section of the AT. Someone who completes the entire AT is referred to as a "2000-miler", and the number of 2000-milers increases every year. There were more trail completions in the year 2000 than there were in the first forty years combined, and in 2017, 1,186 hikers completed the entire route. While the high point of the AT may only be 6,643 feet, it is one of the more arduous trails, continually climbing and descending. Over the course of the trail, a 2000-miler will gain and lose about 89 miles of elevation – equivalent to climbing Mt. Everest 16 times. The typical time for completion of the entire trail is 165 days – just shy of six months.
Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). 2018 is the the 50th anniversary of this 2,650 mile long trail that extends from Mexico to Canada through California, Oregon and Washington. The terrain varies from the scorching 110 degree deserts of the south to the snowy heights of the Sierra Nevadas and the volcanic peaks of the Cascades. The highest point is 13,153 feet at Forrester Pass. Just over 5,400 people have completed the entire trail. Even though it is longer than the AT, the average distance hiked each day is greater on the PCT, so the average time to complete the trail is slightly less - about five months. In some years, sections may be closed due to wildfires. This year is especially bad. As I write this, there are fifteen sections closed, ten of which are in California.
Continental Divide Trail (CDT). The CDT extends 3,100 miles from the Mexico/New Mexico border in the south to the Canadian/Montana border in the north. Since it follows the Continental Divide, much of the trail is at high altitude. The high point is Gray's Peak in Colorado at 14,278 feet and the low point is 3,900 feet in Columbus, NM. There are several alternative routes, especially through Colorado, that can be taken depending on conditions. Most hikers complete the trail in 4-5 months. The trail is a combination of many shorter trails, and is currently only 76% complete. Some sections follow existing roads, or require traversing cross-country with few or non-existent trail markers. Like the PCT above, the CDT often has sections closed due to wildfires.
Pacific Northwest Trail (PNT). The PNT is an east-west trail, starting at the northern end of the CDT in Montana and traversing 1,200 miles to the Pacific Ocean. While some popular sections of the trail draw millions of people each year, there are very few through hikers. In 2017, only about 100 people attempted the entire trail. Most hikers complete it in 60-70 days.
Florida National Scenic Trail (FNST) or Florida Trail. The Florida Trail differs from the other trails in that instead of crossing deserts and/or mountains, it passes through swamps, bogs, sand and scrub. Instead of sighting bears and rattlesnakes, an FNST hiker is likely to see alligators, different types of rattlers and water mocassins. The hiking season is also different – October through April rather than the summer months. Some sections require wading through swamps while in other parts , the hiker can look forward to slogging through deep, gooey, marl mud. Depending on the route, the trail length is about 1,300 miles, give or take a couple hundred miles and extends from the Gulf Islands National Seashore in the south to the Big Cypress National Preserve in the panhandle.
North Country National Scenic Trail. This trail, all 4,600 miles of it, starts in the Adirondack Mountains in New York, crosses Pennsylvania and Ohio, travels up through both peninsulas of Michigan, then across Wisconsin and Minnesota, before terminating in the middle of North Dakota. Currently, only 65% is complete while the remaining 1,600 miles follows existing roads. To my knowledge, no one has completed it in its entirety.
American Discovery Trail. Now we're talking a real hike. Depending on the route, this trail extends between 4,800 and 5,200 miles, across the U.S. from the Atlantic coast at Delaware's Cape Henlopen State Park to the Pacific coast at California's Point Reyes National Seashore. The first people to complete it were Joyce and Peter Cottrell, in 2002. They were both in their fifties and took just over 17 months to hike the entire length. It is a combination of existing trails, rail-trail conversions, bike paths, greenbelts and country roads. The routes split in western Ohio. The northern route is shorter and goes through Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska and Colorado, while the southern route crosses Kentucky, Missouri and Kansas, following parts of the Santa Fe Trail before rejoining the northern route in Denver.
The PCT, CDT and AT are called the "Triple Crown". Someone who has completed all three is called a "Triple Crowner". One couple that I know of, Ken and Marcia Powers, have completed the Triple Crown, as well as the American Discovery Trail, making history with a Grand Slam.
The Great Western Loop combines the PCT, PNT and the CDT for a total of 6,800 miles. The only person I know of to complete this epic hike is Andrew Skurka who did it in 280 days and averaged an amazing 33 miles a day.
We've just barely covered the bigger North American trails and haven't even begun the great trails in other countries. So many trails – so little time. See you next week.

Q: JPA doesn't support interfaces well..implications? I was going through some posts in Stackoverflow on JPA and I read multiple places that JPA does not support interfaces. Can someone please share what it means in a real-world project. Does this mean we cannot annotate the interface?

A: What this means is that you cannot map (annotate) or query on an inferface.  You can only query @Entity classes, and these can only be placed on real classes, not interfaces.  Normally this is not an issue, an interface has no state, so is not something that is really relevant to persistence most of the time.  You can still use interfaces in your model, you just can't map them directly.
If you have a relationship that uses an interface type, you just need to set the targetEntity to the implementation class.  If you have multiple implementers and can't make them share inheritance then you need to get more creative.  Some JPA providers such as EclipseLink have support for interfaces.
See,
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Java_Persistence/Advanced_Topics#Interfaces

A: In JPA, use @MappedSuperclass for inheritance, annotate abstract classes, not interfaces.
I tend to use common base classes for all my entities in a given project:
@MappedSuperclass
public abstract class BaseEntity implements Serializable {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
    private Long id;
}

Now let's say that some of my entities have additional behavior in common: automatically updated timestamps for createdDate and updatedDate
@MappedSuperclass
public abstract class ExtendedEntity extends BaseEntity{

    @Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
    private Date createdDate;

    @Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
    private Date updatedDate;

    @PrePersist
    protected void creationTimeStamp(){
        createdDate = new Date();
        this.updateTimeStamp();
    }

    @PreUpdate
    protected void updateTimeStamp(){
        updatedDate = new Date();
    }

}

Now, some of my entities extend BaseEntity directly, and others extend ExtendedEntity (if they need timestamps).
You can also configure the way the inheritance is modeled:

*

*A single table per class hierarchy

*A table per concrete entity class (default)

*A "join" strategy, whereby fields or properties that are specific to a subclass are mapped to a different table than the fields or properties that are common to the parent class

BTW: I think the choice not to support interfaces is a good one. Interfaces are designed to model behavior, not state. JPA is about managing state, not behavior, so the two concepts don't fit together.
And in cases where you think you need multiple inheritance, perhaps @Embeddable is the solution

A: You need a proxy generator for an interface or an implementation that you provide.
Can you post the links to the SO answers you're thinking of so we can get the complete context?  That might help answer the question.

— манга Инио Асано.

Сюжет

Пунпун — обыкновенный 11-летний школьник из Японии. Честный идеалист и неисправимый романтик, главный герой наблюдает, как быстро меняется его жизнь, когда в его класс приходит новая девочка Айко Танака. Мальчик узнает, насколько хрупкими могут быть отношения и как трудно бывает отказаться от иллюзий наивного детства. Когда однажды Пунпун становится свидетелем того, как его отец обижает мать, он выносит для себя новый урок: те, кого он когда-то считал для себя примером, оказались вовсе не такими, как он думал.

Это глубокая история мангаки Инио Асано о взрослении, полном противоречивых эмоций и трудноразрешимых проблем.

Персонажи
 Пунпун Онодэра () — обычный школьник с низкой самооценкой, его изображение по ходу манги меняется, но чаще всего он изображен в виде птицы. Общается с Богом, когда подавлен, вызывая его при помощи фразы "Боже правый, Боже правый, тили-тили-бом". Влюблён в Айко.
 Айко Танака () — училась с Пунпуном в начальной школе, из-за проблем в семье достаточно подавлена.
 Бог (яп. 神) —  существо, изображенное фотографией головы с афро, которое появляется перед Пунпуном в трудную минуту.
 Мама Пунпуна (яп. 小 野寺 雄 ) — она страдает от перепадов настроения и гнева. У нее очень противоречивые отношения с Пунпуном которому она дает свою фамилию Онодэра после того, как она развелась с отцом Пунпуна.
 Дядя Пунпуна ( яп. 大 隈 翠 ) — брат матери Пунпуна, который присматривает за ним, когда мать попадает в больницу.
 Сати Нандзё ( яп. 南 条 幸) — девушка, которую Пунпун встречает уже будучи взрослым, начинающая мангака.

Создание

После того, как его редактор отверг идею о создании боевой фэнтезийной манги, действие которой разворачивалось на горячем источнике, Инио начал поиск новой истории. В желании вырваться из роли создателя позитивной молодёжной манги, он придумал историю о Пунпуне, на дизайн для которого его вдохновили собственные каракули.

Манга первоначально задумывалась как романтическая история с поворотным моментом, в котором двадцатилетний Пунпун совершает убийство, после чего им с Айко пришлось бы бежать, и сюжет развивался бы по концепции дорожного кино. Выбирая концовку, Асано сперва склонялся к идее, где ребёнок Сати падает с железнодорожной платформы и, спасая его, Пунпун погибает. Однако автор решил, что это слишком «хорошая» концовка. Желая наиболее худшего окончания истории для героя, он оставил его в живых, считая, что «жить труднее, чем умереть».

Асано планировал нарисовать мангу в семь томов, однако в итоге их вышло тринадцать, а работа над мангой продлилась почти семь лет. Сюжет увеличился из-за добавления новых персонажей и их историй. Например, Сэки, Симидзу и Пегаса автор придумал уже в ходе работы над мангой. Также некоторым героям он уделил больше внимания, чем рассчитывал изначально. Например, сюжетная линия дяди Пунпуна или частое появление Бога.

Фоны были сделаны при помощи цифровой обработки фотографий. При работе Инио прибегал к помощи ассистентов.

Художественные особенности

Пунпун в манге изображён в виде карикатурного голубя, чтобы читатель мог идентифицировать себя с персонажем, не отвлекаясь на его внешность. Также такое изображение помогает удивить неподозревающего читателя, который при первом чтении может посчитать, что это милая история. Карикатурой он представляется только читателям, а персонажи видят его как обычного человека. При этом Асано никогда не делал человеческий дизайн Пунпуна.

В манге много символизма. Например, в первой главе есть сцена, где Пунупун с отцом смотрят в телескоп и наблюдают летне-осенний треугольник, состоящий из трёх звёзд: Веги, Альтаира и Денеба. В японской мифологии звезду Вега олицетворяет принцесса Орихимэ, а Альтаира — коровий пастух Хикобоси, которые полюбили друг друга. С добавлением Денеба звёзды образуют уже летне-осенний треугольник, что создаёт аллегорию на любовный треугольник Пунпуна, Айко и Сати в будущем, где Пунпун — это Хикобоси. В одиннадцатом томе автор вновь намекает на это, изобразив Пунпуна с бычьими рожками.

Это не единственный случай трансформации Пунпуна в манге. В некоторых моментах он также был нарисован как тетраэдр или в маске хёттоко. Со слов Асано, за этими изображениями нет скрытого значения: «Манга представляет собой смесь вещей, что имеют смысл или совершенно не имеют».

Публикация

Сначала манга публиковалась в журнале Weekly Young Sunday и после его закрытия перекочевала в Big Comic Spirits.

Отзывы

Многие читатели характеризовали мангу как депрессивную и сюрреалистичную. Однако самому Инио не нравятся такие определения его работы. «Тёмное», депрессивное повествование даже сказывалось на продаже манги. В первый раз продажи упали после публикации флешбэка Юичи, во второй — после сцены убийства матери Айко.

[Abstract] "Populism" is a vague concept, which is recognized by the academic community with difficulties in definition. In view of embarrassments of this concept, the general research strategy lies in summarization of the universal nature or universal characteristics of populism in order to either construct a universal theory of populism, or form a universal definition of populism. This generalization attempt is unsatisfactory. Another strategy bypasses the universal nature of populism and turns to the social typological analysis of populism, but the basis for type division is debatable. Based on the systematic analysis of these two strategies, this paper proposes the third strategy for the conceptualization of populism, namely, reconstruction of "populism" as a concept of from the perspective of "values" and "experience phenomena": Populism as values constitutes the opposition to elitism, which stands up for civilians, extremely advocates civilians and especially grassroots civilians, and embodies ultimate value concerns for them. As empirical phenomena, populism covers populist political parties, populist politicians, populist strategies and many other phenomena or examples, which has an extensive diversification. This kind of conceptual reconstruction not only makes populism obtain a relatively clear-cut and distinct connotation at the level of "ism", but also takes into account the chaotic status of populism at the level of "phenomenon".
