Morgan is building the LifeCar to demonstrate, "that a zero emission vehicle can also be fun to drive." The tiny English car maker - better known for wood framed roadsters - is trying to do what no car maker has done before it: bring to market a fast, fun, desirable sports car that makes no sacrifices for its hydrogen fuel cell.
Built on the same basic architecture as the Aero8, the LifeCar is given a more futuristic art-deco look as well as a significant reduction in weight. By combining that low weight with high levels of hybridization, Morgan predict the LifeCar will have performance to match a sports car while achieving a 200-mile fuel range.
Morgan will debut the car at the Geneva Motor Show in March.

Pivot Produce is a produce distribution company active in the farm-to-table movement and a member of CIC's Food Entrepreneur Loan Program with the Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona. Founder and chef, Erik Stanford, has built a consortium of restaurants and farms which allows Tucson chefs access to the highest quality produce in the region and gives farmers access to Tucson's top restaurants.
The goal of Pivot Produce is twofold. The first is to provide access to wholesale markets for small scale farmers in Southern Arizona. The second is to provide local chefs with access to locally grown, organic produce. Founder Erik Stanford bridges the gap between farmers and restaurants by purchasing local produce and delivering it directly to restaurants.
Stanford was able to expand his cold storage from a two-door 90-square foot refrigerator to a 900-square foot walk-in refrigerator. The remaining loan funds are being used to expand transportation capacity by purchasing a company vehicle. He is also looking to hire his first part-time employee in the near future.
Stanford's mental perception of Pivot Produce has changed as the loan helped him legitimize the business. "The loan took me from doing this as a hobby to a real business", says Stanford. Moreover, as a result of the loan, Pivot Produce has taken on six new farms, increased buying capacity, and has grown revenues.

Hi Sandy and family! I had a little mishap with my computer that I use for all my editing. Luckily I backup all my images in two different locations so I didn't lose anything but I lost my editing that I spent a lot of hours on. I have had to go back through and re-edit which I didn't think I was going to have to do.
It was such a pleasure to work with all of you and you really such beautiful families!
I hope you enjoy these! I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Once you decide which one's you would like the prints of please let me know and I will get them out to you.

Q: React.render() throws "ReactDOM is not defined" when using React After executing npm install -g create-react-app, the project folder was created with create-react-app ./example.
We used npm start in the later project to run in developer mode.
The following simple example of App.js should output 'Hello World', but a compilation error occurs:
ReactDOM.render(s

Hello, World!
,
  document.getElementById('root')
);

The error is as follows:

Failed to Compile - ./src/App.js ReactDOM is not defined

How can I fix this problem?

A:

*

*Remove the "s" after render

*add the modules of react adn react-dom

import React from 'react'

import ReactDom from 'react-dom'

*

*check tag h1 name

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
ReactDOM.render(

Hello, World!
,
    document.getElementById('root')
);

A: I think
  adding "import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';" at the top.
It will be run.

I remembered this from Sunday as a clear Cincinnati win. I re-watched it today…and…not so much. This game was 14-0 Miami at the half. 17-0 Dolphins at one point in the 3rd quarter. 17-3 after three. Cincy didn't help themselves along the way…a red zone pick, blocked FG, punt return TD allowed. Cincy was doomed 45 minutes in.
And then, in a way that can only be described as – God loves me and wants my Cincinnati win total over 5.5/6.0 to payoff for me and all my friends as quick as possible – every suddenly went the Bengals way. A weird TD pass/wounded duck that Joe Mixon acted like a WR on and adjusted to/caught/scored to close the gap…followed by football follies of a batted Tannehill pass/D-Lineman pick and TD rumble and then a fumble return TD late to seal it.
How did this happen? Minus defensive and special teams scores this game was Cincy 13 and Miami 10. Just a weird game all the way around. It was typical Cincinnati – not good enough to play consistent football and put weak teams away but good enough to make plays and stay in/win some games like this. This sloppy play, but win, is not as likely to happen against better teams. Two weeks in a row the Bengals lived with the angles beating bad Atlanta (last second) and bad Miami (fluke defensive TD frenzy). I have a feeling Cincy will get walloped this week hosting the Steelers.
If Cincinnati can beat the Steelers this week, they're almost assured a shot at the playoffs. If they lose this week, I think they settle into their win one, lose one ways and scratch and claw to a 9-7 wild card at best. They have two games left with Cleveland, and that would have been two easy wins likely but with Baker Mayfield – it might be two losses. I need Cincy to get to 6 and 7 wins to payoff all my win-total bets. They look good for it now but a spiral could be coming if they lose Week 6.
Miami, predictably is going into the tank. The 3-0 start is now 3-2 and they'll be 4-6 by their BYE and discussing a coaching change at year's end when they finish 6-10.
-- We have to talk about Kenyan Drake (6-46-0, 7-69-1/11).
I saw a fantasy analyst railing on Drake for his lowly 6 carries in this 'breakout' (he said sarcastically) performance. So, what if he got a lot of targets, he's not getting carries…so, no thanks the analyst bemoaned.
I get that sentiment. The sentiment of someone who doesn't study football but just grabs for narratives based on box score trends – I used to do the same thing. It takes time and discipline to watch all this stuff every week all year round.
The talking point from this game should not be Drake's limited carries the past few weeks…but that is an issue. The talking point shouldn't be to mock the sudden spike in targets (11 this game)…but it's logical to question it given 4-4-4-2 for targets in games prior. To me, the thing that caught my attention was the purpose behind this target spike.
This was not 'game flow' for Drake. This was purposed. A change in the offense. Not Drake with 11 screen passes in a crazy deficit/comeback attempt…but Drake running real routes and sometimes lined up as a WR. His TD catch was sprinting out of the backfield on the snap and beating a linebacker by 7+ yards for an easy 22-yard TD.
Gone, might be the Drake that takes 12 carries and sees 2-4 targets a game and arrived is a guy who was known for his pass catching skills taking 7+ targets a game with 7+ carries…or, in other words, known as 'Miami's Alvin Kamara'.
I've never seen Drake used like this, so it's very possible that it was so smart, effective, and successful that they'll never do it again. That's probably the smart bet with dunce-like NFL coaches, and Miami has one of the worst O-Cs on the planet. However, what if they 'discovered something' and this is a new Kenyan Drake reality? The way he should've been used all along, to some degree – as a Kamara?
I'm willing to buy low on that. People are giving him away as an RB2.5. He's a talented runner and receiver and just saw 11 targets in a game and the next closest player for his team was at 6. People are so focused on the carry count they are missing a potential big picture – or they're right to ignore it. Ignorance may be bliss.
-- The better Alvin Kamara/Kenyan Drake is Joe Mixon (22-93-0, 3-22-0/4), who should be a new age Le'Veon Bell seeing 7-10+ targets a game but is kept in an old school box of 2-4 targets a game. Obviously, in this game, he knee was fine, as suspected. No reason, except Marvin Lewis, that Mixon isn't an RB1 this season.
-- C.J. Uzomah (2-43-0/2) had a couple nice plays on each of his catches in this game. I particularly liked the TE bubble screen they ran and CJU raced for 25 yards. They could run that play several more times if they needed to. They might this week against the Steelers.
-- No worries on Tyler Boyd (4-44-0/7) after his hot start to 2018, a dip this game. Nothing crazy happened…it just wasn't Cincy's best offensive performance. He's a solid RB2 PPR ROS.
-- Again, Mike Gesicki (3-26-0/5)…so slow, so unimpressive. Absolutely nothing like his NFL Combine. I'm not sure I've seen an NFL Combine set of numbers be so far off on-field reality as it is with Gesicki.
Cincy LB Nick Vigil (9 tackles, 1 TFL, 1 PD) didn't drop off with Vontaze Burfict (7 tackles) making his 2018 debut. 9.8 tackles per game for the talented Vigil this season.
Miami rookie LB Jerome Baker (7 tackles, 2.0 sacks, 2 TFLs) finds his was into a game blurb/note every week since the preseason, I think. I can't help it. He stands out. He's always around the ball. His numbers keep improving. 8.7 tackles per game the past 3 games.


Former President Clinton appeared before a sold-out audience Wednesday to discuss his new book, The President Is Missing, written with James Patterson.
Former President Bill Clinton will appear at the Performing Arts Center on Wednesday, August 22 to talk about his best-selling novel, The President Is Missing.
President Clinton and his family concluded their summer vacation on Sunday night with hundreds of handshakes and a heartfelt goodbye for the people of the Vineyard who had so genially hosted them for 11 days.
"My family never needed a vacation more and it's hard to imagine how this one could have been better....Now we are going home and we are immensely grateful for all you have done. We are refreshed and renewed for all the American people," said Mr.
President Clinton and his family arrived on Martha's Vineyard late yesterday afternoon to begin a 10-day summer vacation on the Island, the most extended stay here of any sitting president in history.
Former President William Clinton will arrive on Martha's Vineyard today for a long weekend with his wife, U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.), and daughter Chelsea.
The family will stay at the Chilmark home of Kenneth H. Iscol, a cellular-telephone industry executive. Mr. Clinton will celebrate his 56th birthday here on Monday.
The Clintons first visited the Island in 1993 and except for 1996 have returned to its shores every year since.
They turned up in droves - and rain slickers - yesterday morning, snaking along Main street in Vineyard Haven for a chance to shake hands with the man whose name many wished were appearing on the ballot this November.
Former President Bill Clinton signed nearly 900 copies of his memoir, My Life, at the Bunch of Grapes Bookstore on Monday. The store was prepared to hand out 1,000 tickets to customers but ran out of books along the way.
Will the Clinton Years Return Again?
It was a time when the boats were full, business was bustling and the Island seemed like the center of the universe — at least for a few weeks each summer.
The span between 1993 to 2000 was when former President Bill Clinton made the Island the site of the summer White House. In local circles this period is known simply as the Clinton years, an era when the Vineyard hit its pinnacle of popularity and celebrity status.
In August 1994, the last year the annual agricultural fair was held on the grounds of the old Grange Hall in West Tisbury, the fair was on, and I was crossing State Road by the town hall as two motorcycle escorts heralded the arrival of President Clinton's motorcade.
To compare the Vineyard vacations of former President Clinton and current President Obama all you have to do is stop in an Island ice cream parlor. Once there, you will probably find a picture hanging on the wall of the former President eagerly peering over the counter to view the lineup of flavors, chatting with patrons or munching on an ice cream cone.
Former President Bill Clinton was on-Island yesterday for a spot of golf, among other orders of business, according to sources.
Mr. Clinton arrived early Monday by plane, carrying a bag of golf clubs, and was expected to fly out late last night. Neither his wife, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, nor his daughter, Chelsea, was travelling with him.

Woolverstone Hall is a peach of a venue and I would highly recommend it to couples looking for a venue in the beautiful countryside of Suffolk; Laura, Ruaidhri and their families made me so welcome and I had to stop chatting sometimes to keep the shutter clicking. I have my good friend and amazing photographer Clare Butler Photography to thank for choosing me to join her as a second shooter. It was such a treat for me to work alongside Clare, especially at a venue like this.

Q: asyncio performance in non-web, non-files apps I've got a burning question. Recently I've been learning Asyncio in Python and found it very useful and efficient but here is my question: is it efficient to use it for "normal" things?
It's obvious that using asynchronous operations for making requests, handling requests (in apis), working on files will give us performance gain. But how I put other operations? For example, if I want to do a lot of complicated mathematical operations or just standard operations (without files and web), would asyncio help me anyway? Is there any reason why we should use it outside our apps where we are not making requests and doing all this web or files stuff?
I'm wondering because in college teachers never mentioned that we couldn't get any better by using it for just math or standard (local?, non-file, non-web) operations and I thought that we benefit from it (almost always). Am I totally wrong?  Is it that way just in python or in every other language ?

A: asyncio in the first place is a convenient way to run multiple execution flows (compared to common alternatives like callbacks and threads).
Why would someone want to run multiple execution flows? Usually to gain performance, for example:

*

*You don't want to waste time waiting one network request finished, so you starting another concurrently gaining performance

*You don't want to waste time waiting one OS thread finished, so you starting another concurrently. In Python due to GIL you won't gain performance with threads for CPU-bound operations. But they can still be useful for network stuff or specifically in asyncio as a common way to run something blocking without freezing event loop.

*You don't want to waste time waiting one OS process finished, so you starting another concurrently.

Last item is a way to gain performance even for purely CPU-bound operations (if machine have multiple cores). You can see example here (third option). asyncio here, again, is just a tool for convenient managing execution flows. Nothing stops you from using pure ProcessPoolExecutor and de-facto callbacks as shown here.

Noted biosciences entrepreneur Jonathan Rothberg has a health startup incubator up in Connecticut, and one of its portfolio companies, Butterfly Network, has recently raised an $80 funding round.
Butterfly Network, which launched roughly three years ago, is developing a new kind of medical imaging device that will see the human body in "completely new ways," the company says. Butterfly hopes to collect thousands of images in a database, then use artificial intelligence techniques to a learn new clinical insights from them.
The startup may develop non-invasive surgical technology as well, Rothberg told VentureBeat. But that's the extent of what Rothberg was willing to say about the company's products and how they might work.
Butterfly Network was founded by Rothberg and a group of physicists and engineers from MIT's Lincoln Laboratories.
The new investment money is presumably coming from or through Rothberg's 4Combinator incubator, but he wouldn't give specifics. The money will be used to further develop the company's imaging technology and AI techniques.
So far Butterfly has raised a total of $100 million, suggesting that somebody strongly believes the startup's products will address real market needs.
Investors might also feel good about Rothberg's track record. He has launched five successful health and biosciences startups. His previous company, Ion Torrent, reduced DNA sequencing machines to a single, low-cost semiconductor chip. That company eventually sold for $795 million.
The 4Combinator portfolio companies are developing life science research tools, medical devices and therapeutics. "We aspire to create significant societal impact and are motivated by the idea that our products will change the lives of people we love," reads the incubator's website.
Rothberg says 4Combinator has already funded four of its portfolio companies, and has recruited many "star warriors" (aerospace engineers) and "flash boys" (high-frequency stock traders) to work in them.
In fact, Rothberg says the main reason Butterfly is making its funding announcement now is that it hopes to attract more talent to 4Combinator companies.
"That person who is going to go to Goldman Sachs and be a programmer can come to work for us and have a chance of saving the life of someone they love," Rothberg said.

Social control meaning. Social Control: Meaning, Features and Types 2019-02-09
Social control meaning Rating: 7,6/10 1591 reviews
The present day industrialization, urbanization, quick means of transport and communication; desertion of the villages; mobility of the people; the rise of towns, cities and metropolitan areas; and the mixing of the people, like of which never had been before, has brought the old values to shambles. Indirect social control regulates the behaviour of groups and associations, and not of particular individuals. Bernard also distinguished between exploitative and constructive methods of social control. When a particular member controls the whole family, he is known as the controlling member. Many of our business enterprises employ advertising to influence attitudes and, therefore, action.
social control definition: Free Sociology Dictionary: social control defined
The raising of hands in supplication, the kneeling before the symbol of faith or such other practices and ceremonials are indicative of it. In the world we today find a conflict of ideologies. They are the behaviour patterns of everyday life which arise spontaneously and unconsciously in a group. But, in general, custom, as a social discipline is at vanishing point. Social control works always and all the time. Individuals who have these beliefs and commitments often have a level of self-control over their actions or are, as Janet Jackson would say, 'in control' of their lives - they are accordingly prepped to stay on the right side of the law.
social control definition
Law, Propaganda, Education are such forms. This group may be the family, the church, the state or the trade union etc. We act with as much determination from false beliefs as from factually sound ones. A social norm operative in one social system is not equally operative in the other. Traditionally, our political ethics is based on nonviolence or least violence. Informal social control refers to our conformity to the norms and values of the society, and adoption of a particular belief system, which we learn through the process of socialization.
Social Control: Meaning, Features and Types
Although enforcement of the old order in a changing society may hinder social progress, yet it is necessary to maintain continuity and uniformity in society. The first belief in the existence of an unseen power leads a man to right action because he believes that his actions are being watched by an unseen power. Akers 1991 argued that a major weakness of this new theory was that Gottfredson and Hirschi did not define self-control and the tendency toward criminal behavior separately. However, they may be constrained when free from direct control by their anticipation of parental disapproval indirect control , or through the development of a conscience, an internal constraint on behavior. Some of these faded away with the change of circumstances, and those which were repeated generation after generation gained influence. General views about forms of social control: Generally social control is classified under the following two forms: a Formal social control, b Informal social control a Formal social control: This type of social control is exercised by known and deliberate agencies of social control, such as law, punishment, army, Constitution etc.
Means of Social Control: Informal and Formal Means of Social Control
Mores are always moulding human behaviour. Folk ways, mores, customs, social norms etc. Any attempt to get an individual to do or refrain from doing something can be considered an attempt at control. Informal controls are varied and differ from individual to individual, group to group and society to society. With the increase in the social role of education attention is being given to it at all levels — primary and adult, literary and technical. Lumley classified the means of social control into two major categories: those based upon force and those founded on symbols. In the process of socialisation the growing child learns the values of his own groups as well as of the larger society and the ways of doing and thinking that are deemed to be right and proper.
What is informal social control? What are some examples?
State is the agency of society that exercise its social control in the most effective manner. This helps them to control the members of the society through economic means. In villages neighbourhood control is more often found. But all the individuals cannot adjust themselves to new situations. No special agency is required to create them. Unfavorable Effect of Rigid Social Control on Personality Development : Rigid and unhealthy social control may give rise to personality and social maladjustments. Humour controls by supporting the sanctioned values of the society.
On the other hand, detective literature may have its effect on crime. They may be founded on factual or faulty evidence. It is also not tolerable. He, therefore avoided these as best as he could. However, due to a lack of popular support for enforcement, these entities may rely more on force and other severe sanctions such as censorship, expulsion and limits on political freedom.
Social Control: The Meaning, Need, Types and other details
Any society must have harmony and order. This mechanism is called social control. However, if someone cares a lot about what other people think, he or she will agree to marry as per the religious rituals for social and family approval. The children should respect their parents. All these efforts by the group are called social control, which is concerned with the failures in socialisation.
Social control theory
Such control has been termed by sociologists as social control. Meaning of Social Control 2. They are cooperative and the interpersonal relationship is much better than found in a dictatorial family where gap in communication among the various family members is a common phenomena. Education: Education is a great vehicle of social control. Rich people and industrialists have a social status by which they control their workers and the mass.
Meaning of Social Control, Social Control, About Social Control, Type of Social Control, Sociology Guide
The modern societies are large in size. He stressed the rationality in the decision whether to engage in crime and argued that a person was less likely to choose crime if they had strong social bonds. The family, again, cannot be taken as an isolated phenomenon in social life; its workings are intertwined with the workings of other institutions and associations in the midst of which it is placed. In a criminal gang, a stronger sanction applies in the case of someone threatening to inform to the police. The mechanisms utilized by the state as means of formal social control span the gamut from the death penalty to curfew laws.


And then mine did. Today, my brother called. "Dad's dead." I dropped the phone onto my desk. Like it was the messenger and I wanted it away from me.
My dad wasn't a saint. In fact, it's really only been in the last 10 years or so that we've gotten close. I can't deny that my life has been influenced by his seeming lack of awareness while I was growing up that he had a daughter. And yet, following a trauma in his own life, he softened a bit. Through that experience, he found the Catholic Church. Not what speaks to me necessarily but it did to him and so we began speaking more. I had a choice to make when he began coming around so late in my life. Was I going to hold on to past wrongs? Or was I willing to give him a second chance?
I read somewhere that every marriage has cause for divorce. Every relationship has hurts and wrongs and irritations. Some are small. Some are of the kind that no one would question whether divorce was justified but would rather question the wisdom of granting a second chance. I don't write from only professional experience here.
There are crystal clear decision points in my life when I chose to extend a second chance. They occurred in very different arenas: following childhood pain with my dad, adulthood trauma in my marriage, and professionally in my firm with a hiring decision. I make no blanket statements here. There are definitely times when the best right decision would be to decline to extend a second chance. And we will all get it wrong sometimes. Extend a second chance only to be stung again. Or fail to do so and deny ourselves richer, deeper relationships that might have resulted from another chance. But today, while processing the loss of my dad, I am so grateful for the memories I have when he came for Christmas five years ago and met his first great grandson, when I stayed with him at his home and traipsed all over looking for acceptable senior retirement housing, when walking with my brothers alongside his gurney at the hospital before his heart surgery, and when he flew up last April for the Senior PGA Golf Tournament—his very favorite hobby—and met his great granddaughter. And I'm so grateful that my soulmate and the person who knows the depths of my being better than anyone anywhere will be beside me as I process this loss. Finally, I'm grateful to have a business where I can offer someone a job that represents both a second chance and the opportunity to begin making restitution.
I have been extended a second chance by others after I've failed them. I am grateful for that too.
I'm not advocating an uninformed or wholesale granting of second chances at all times to all people. And every one of us has to make our own best decision when faced with the choice. But I feel grateful for some fortunate calls in my life so I want to declare: I believe in second chances.

For anyone under 30, Fury Road will likely be the first time they see a Mad Max film in a movie theater. But as George Miller's amazing new film creates a new generation of fans (and reignites the guzzoline-filled passions of the older ones), they'll quickly find that there is already a growing fan community ready to initiate them. Post-apocalyptic fandom — everything from car builders, to cosplayers, to performers — has been growing steadily in the last decade, even before Fury Road was on the horizon. And at the center of that global fan community is a single event: Wasteland Weekend.
The four-day post-apocalyptic party in California's Mojave desert began in 2010 and has seen steady growth each year. While it embraces many influences (video games like Fallout, films like Book Of Eli, even 80s dystopian music videos), the heart of the gathering has always been the original Mad Max trilogy. And now, with the long-awaited Fury Road finally exploding into cinemas, Wasteland Weekend is poised to embrace the new film and evolve.
"We've actually been prepping for Fury Road's release and its effect on our event, since 2010," says the event's director and co-founder Jared Butler." For our first gathering, George Miller and his crew sent us a sneak peek video from their pre-production in Australia, featuring the first glimpse of the Gigahorse (the monster car driven by the film's villain Immortan Joe). Since then, we've been waiting and hoping that Fury Road would bring something new to energize the world of post-apocalyptic pop culture." Not that the genre needed much of a boost; post-apocalyptic films, television, games, and comics have been booming for the last decade. But Fury Road comes from the mind of George Miller, making it the gold standard for most fans of all things dystopian. "He set the standard in the genre for 30 years. Now, he just came in with a whole new vision that will set the standard for the NEXT 30 years," says Butler.
In keeping with the automotive themes in Fury Road, one of the clearest displays of all of this repurposed rust is in the vehicles that are brought out to the event. Last year's Wasteland Weekend featured over 100 customized, fan-built Mad Max-style cars and motorcycles, driven out from all over the continent, some owners convoying thousands of miles to show off their creations in the temporary desert city. And this year, they expect even more. "You don't need to bring a themed car to enjoy Wasteland Weekend," points out Butler, "but everyone who comes without one seems to add building a Mad Max car to their bucket list by the time the weekend is done." After all, Wasteland Weekend has multiple activities day and night, from archery contests, to fire performers, to bounty hunting games, to a full lineup of live bands, but the Wasteland car cruises are always a highlight.
And living "inside the movie" is the whole goal of Wasteland Weekend. Unlike some other fan celebrations or desert music festivals, Wasteland requires that ALL attendees wear some kind of post-apocalyptic outfit for the duration of the event, an edict that even extends to performing musicians and visiting media. Full immersion is the goal.
"We've been thinking of some new slogans this year," says Butler. "Love Fury Road? Come out and LIVE Fury Road!" "Be one of the mad!" adds Chilson.

A really nice piece called Keep, Start, Stop on The Sales Blog is worth a read while we're all in New Year's Resolution mode. As with all these suggested exercises to do with making goals, it's easy to nod and say: "That's a good idea", but much harder to actually do it. However, I reckon any of us who give it a try will have a really good document blu-tacked to our wall for the year.


Because we love jewellery, and sometimes, that really is enough of a reason.
Jewellery amplifies our beauty, lending just the right amount of flair and grace to complete our style.
We aspire to look different every day. Different kinds of jewellery can break the monotony.
For the beauty of it, and beauty, as they say, is an excuse for itself.
Jewellery as a celebration of life itself, imparting joy and happiness.
The right jewellery can boost our confidence, emboldening us to face the world.
To charm the eyes of all those who admire us.
To preserve and perpetuate our traditions and beliefs.
As a gift for our loved ones, and what better way to express our love than through the eternality of jewels.
Life is transitory, but jewellery stays. It is a token of remembrance from our previous generation.
Jewellery is a way to flaunt our affluence.
Jewellery for each festivity, and in a land as culturally diverse as ours, we have a myriad deluge of festivals to celebrate.
To adorn every occasion that arises within the family.
Traditional or ethnic jewellery has the ability to lend a royal touch to our everyday ensemble.
Jewellery is one of the safest forms of investment in today's fluctuating global markets, acting as a sure wealth preserver.
As shagun, for auspicious beginnings of a new relationship.
To stand out as extraordinary among a crowd of people.
As a token of the promise of an everlasting relationship, such as promise rings, love bands, or the mangalsutra worn by most Indian married women.
The craft of jewellery making dates back to ages. Wearing a particular kind of jewellery is a celebration of the craft itself.
For luck and for auspiciousness.
Jewellery often becomes an outlet for expressing one's individuality, a statement of our self-identity.
Our personality is the canvas to express our creativity and artistry, and we can do that through our jewellery.
Wearing jewellery has astrological implications too. Gemstones and metals can have positive influence on the planetary position.
To enhance our bond with nature and Mother Earth, particularly in the form of Eco Jewellery.
Jewellery is said to have the ability to channel the energy within you into fruitful pursuits.
Earrings are said to aid the body in a way by influencing and improving the functions of the kidneys and bladders through the nerve connecting them to the brain.
Maangtikas, Jhoomars and other forehead jewellery are said to be able to regulate blood circulation and reduce headaches.
Nose rings, like Naath, aid in both breathing problems, and is also closely associated by Ayurveda with the female reproductive organs.
Bangles have the ability to increase circulation and provide friction to the pulse points in the hands, channelling energy back into the body.
Necklaces such as Maala, Haar or Satli puts a mild pressure on certain acupressure points surrounding the neck which helps in reviving blood circulation.
Armbands such as the Vanki worn on the upper arm is said to ward away evil.
Rings have been acknowledged as having a deep impact on physical, emotional and mental health of the wearer across the world, acting on the close proximity to nerves and veins connected directly to the brain.
The hip belt, one of the most sensuous pieces of jewellery was often used in olden times to regulate body shape and prevent fat and pot bellies.
For some, the entire process of consideration and selection of jewellery becomes a calming preparation to facing the world.
And lastly, we wear jewellery just because… 'sometimes you really don't need a reason.

In a globalising world, with companies and organisations acting more internationally, rewards become more complex to manage. How can you see the clear links between business strategy and reward? How can you integrate HR and rewards into a process of change? And how do you deal with specific issues such as global mobility, expatriation, cultural differences, etc.?
The programme is aimed at high potentials in the field of HR and Compensation & Benefits or VPs working in companies conducting business in multiple countries and willing to take on a more strategic role.
Presentation of an in-company project and sharing experiences with reward managers.
More and more Belgian companies are calling on interim managers: professionals that offer companies specific expertise (executive management, Human Resources, supply chain and production, or other) for a limited period and seldom for longer than a year. An independent survey carried out on behalf of Robert Half Management Resources has revealed that 75 per cent of Belgian CFOs intend to bring in an interim manager in 2016. In response to this demand Vlerick Business School and Robert Half Management Resources are joining forces for the first time to deliver a programme in 'Mastering Interim Management'.

On this day in Alabama history: William Rufus King inaugurated as vice president
By Alabama NewsCenter Staff
Wood engraving of Chestnut Hill, the home of William R. King, in King's Bend, Dallas County, Alabama. Built circa 1820 on a knoll surrounded by chestnut trees, it was located near the east bank of the Alabama River, opposite Cahaba. (Illustrated News, Wikipedia)
William Rufus King of Selma was born April 7, 1786. He served as a U.S. representative from North Carolina, a senator from Alabama and as minister to France during the reign of King Louis Philippe I before becoming the only U.S. vice president from Alabama. King was elected vice president on the Democratic ticket with Franklin Pierce in fall 1852. Due to illness, he was inaugurated near Havana, Cuba in March 1853 – the only United States executive official to take the oath of office on foreign soil. King served six weeks as the 13th vice president. He died in April 1853 and was buried in Selma. King held the highest political office of any Alabamian in American history.

Q: IEX API technical indicators batch call Just wondering if anyone has been able to make a batch call to the iex cloud api requesting technical indicators like SMA10day or EMA10day for multiple tickers.
I have no problem accessing some of the other features via the following url:
batch_api_call_url = f'https://cloud.iexapis.com/v1/stock/market/batch?&types=quote,stats,advanced-stats,company&symbols={tickers}&token={iex_token}'
However, the technical indicators endpoint eludes me. Any guidance is much appreciated!

A: In the long run if you know some Python  it might be better to simply make a get request to the api for the price data and calculate the MAs internally. This way it doesnt eat into your cumulative end-point quotas.
data = requests.get(api_call_url).json()    # get price data only from eixcloud
data.index= pd.to_datetime(data.index)
import talib as ta                          #you might need to install this resource first
data['SMA20'] = ta.SMA(data.close, timeperiod = 20)
here is a further reference: https://mrjbq7.github.io/ta-lib/
or just df['20SMA'] = df['Close'].rolling(20).mean()

Title 59.1. Trade and Commerce
Chapter 53. Consumer Data Protection Act
§ 59.1-577. (Effective January 1, 2023) Personal data rights; consumers.
A. A consumer may invoke the consumer rights authorized pursuant to this subsection at any time by submitting a request to a controller specifying the consumer rights the consumer wishes to invoke. A known child's parent or legal guardian may invoke such consumer rights on behalf of the child regarding processing personal data belonging to the known child. A controller shall comply with an authenticated consumer request to exercise the right:
1. To confirm whether or not a controller is processing the consumer's personal data and to access such personal data;
2. To correct inaccuracies in the consumer's personal data, taking into account the nature of the personal data and the purposes of the processing of the consumer's personal data;
3. To delete personal data provided by or obtained about the consumer;
4. To obtain a copy of the consumer's personal data that the consumer previously provided to the controller in a portable and, to the extent technically feasible, readily usable format that allows the consumer to transmit the data to another controller without hindrance, where the processing is carried out by automated means; and
5. To opt out of the processing of the personal data for purposes of (i) targeted advertising, (ii) the sale of personal data, or (iii) profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning the consumer.
B. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, a controller shall comply with a request by a consumer to exercise the consumer rights authorized pursuant to subsection A as follows:
1. A controller shall respond to the consumer without undue delay, but in all cases within 45 days of receipt of the request submitted pursuant to the methods described in subsection A. The response period may be extended once by 45 additional days when reasonably necessary, taking into account the complexity and number of the consumer's requests, so long as the controller informs the consumer of any such extension within the initial 45-day response period, together with the reason for the extension.
2. If a controller declines to take action regarding the consumer's request, the controller shall inform the consumer without undue delay, but in all cases and at the latest within 45 days of receipt of the request, of the justification for declining to take action and instructions for how to appeal the decision pursuant to subsection C.
3. Information provided in response to a consumer request shall be provided by a controller free of charge, up to twice annually per consumer. If requests from a consumer are manifestly unfounded, excessive, or repetitive, the controller may charge the consumer a reasonable fee to cover the administrative costs of complying with the request or decline to act on the request. The controller bears the burden of demonstrating the manifestly unfounded, excessive, or repetitive nature of the request.
4. If a controller is unable to authenticate the request using commercially reasonable efforts, the controller shall not be required to comply with a request to initiate an action under subsection A and may request that the consumer provide additional information reasonably necessary to authenticate the consumer and the consumer's request.
5. A controller that has obtained personal data about a consumer from a source other than the consumer shall be deemed in compliance with a consumer's request to delete such data pursuant to subdivision A 3 by either (i) retaining a record of the deletion request and the minimum data necessary for the purpose of ensuring the consumer's personal data remains deleted from the business's records and not using such retained data for any other purpose pursuant to the provisions of this chapter or (ii) opting the consumer out of the processing of such personal data for any purpose except for those exempted pursuant to the provisions of this chapter.
C. A controller shall establish a process for a consumer to appeal the controller's refusal to take action on a request within a reasonable period of time after the consumer's receipt of the decision pursuant to subdivision B 2. The appeal process shall be conspicuously available and similar to the process for submitting requests to initiate action pursuant to subsection A. Within 60 days of receipt of an appeal, a controller shall inform the consumer in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to the appeal, including a written explanation of the reasons for the decisions. If the appeal is denied, the controller shall also provide the consumer with an online mechanism, if available, or other method through which the consumer may contact the Attorney General to submit a complaint.

FBI to Apple: Nevermind
March 29, 2016 by Source
'The FBI's credibility just hit a new low. They repeatedly lied to the court and the public in pursuit of a dangerous precedent that would have made all of us less safe.'
By Common Dreams
Following a high-profile attempt by the FBI and Department of Justice to force Apple to hack its own security encryption features, the federal government threw in the towel on Monday as it announced that it had successfully accessed information on the iPhone belonging to one of the perpetrators of the mass shooting in San Bernadino, California late last year.
The case that became known as Apple vs. FBI, which pitched digital privacy and civil liberties advocates against the federal government, created an international stir as Apple challenged a court ruling demanding that it create code that would allow federal agents to get inside the locked phone of Syed Farook, who along with his wife killed 14 people and wounded 22 others during a workplace shooting in December.
In a short court filing on Monday, the Justice Department said the government "no longer requires" Apple's help in accessing the information. The DOJ requested the court order which instigated the legal battle to be withdrawn.
"Our decision to conclude the litigation was based solely on the fact that, with the recent assistance of a third party, we are now able to unlock that iPhone without compromising any information on the phone," federal prosecutors said in a statement.
However, according to Alex Abdo, staff attorney at the ACLU, the government should not presume that advocates are going to drop their guard. "This case was never about just one phone," Abdo said in a statement. "It was about an unprecedented power-grab by the government that was a threat to everyone's security and privacy. Unfortunately, this news appears to be just a delay of an inevitable fight over whether the FBI can force Apple to undermine the security of its own products. We would all be more secure if the government ended this reckless effort."
According to Fight for the Future, a digital and privacy rights group which helped lead opposition to the government's case and applauded Apple for standing firm against the court order, Monday's announcement should not come as a surprise given that the consensus among credible technical experts was always that the FBI always had likely other ways to bypass the iPhone's security. The government's real goal, according to the group, was not to access the data on one specific phone, but rather an effort to establish a legal precedent that could compel private companies to build backdoors into their products.
"The FBI's credibility just hit a new low," said Evan Greer, campaign director of Fight for the Future. "They repeatedly lied to the court and the public in pursuit of a dangerous precedent that would have made all of us less safe. Fortunately, Internet users mobilized quickly and powerfully to educate the public about the dangers of backdoors, and together we forced the government to back down."
As the Guardian reports:
The development effectively ends a six-week legal battle that was poised to shape digital privacy for years to come. Justice Department lawyers wrote in a court filing Monday evening that they no longer needed Apple's help in getting around the security countermeasures on Farook's device.
"The government has now successfully accessed the data stored on Farook's iPhone and therefore no longer requires the assistance from Apple Inc," the government said. It then asked the court to vacate a 16 February court order demanding Apple create software that weakened iPhone security settings to aid government investigators.
The Guardian has reported that the technique used by the government has beenclassified.
Apple was fighting that order with a massive public relations and legal campaign. The company, America's most valuable, argued creating such software would force the company to betray its values along with the security and privacy of all of its customers.
In response to the news, NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden offered a few key reactions via his Twitter account:
Journalists: please remember that government argued for months that this was impossible, despite expert consensus. pic.twitter.com/7QdkjRKpXg
— Edward Snowden (@Snowden) March 28, 2016
Techs are so angry about the dishonesty in this case that @FBI might need to add itself to the list of radicalizers. #AppleVsFBI
Remember when government officials used to lose their jobs for false testimony? First Clapper, now Comey. https://t.co/X204QZBKOz
According to the Los Angeles Times,
Monday's announcement could also have far-reaching consequences for local law enforcement. Police nationwide have long contended that data encryption allowed criminals to store information on smartphones to avoid detection. Thousands of the devices that have been seized during investigations in recent years currently sit idle in police evidence lockers. The Los Angeles Police Department has nearly 300 such devices, the department has said.
Though it's unclear how the FBI gained access to Farook's phone, the possibility that the agency found a way around Apple's security measures could allow police access to similarly encrypted data in a much wider range of investigations.
Despite Monday's developments, Gizmodo's Kate Knibbs explains that plenty of questions remain:
One enormous question remaining: What was on the damn phone?
And another: How will this case affect how the government pursues cooperation from tech companies in the future? This is not an end to the tension between law enforcement officials and companies with a business interest in safeguarding user data.
While the DOJ wasn't able to use this particular case to establish precedent, the government filing is worded to very clearly emphasize that it was legally right to force Apple to help. The contested assistance, in this filing, is "mandated."
Apple is still in active court cases with the government about assisting with seized phones, in New York, California, Illinois, and Massachusetts. Today's withdrawal doesn't make those cases go away. This is a way of pulling out of the conflict without admitting that the government's legal argument sucked. It is a temporary détente at most.

Bryopsidales é uma ordem de algas verdes, pertencente à classe Ulvophyceae.

Descrição
Caracterizam-se por possuir células geralmente filiformes mas que formam um emaranhado com uma forma global bem definida originando algas de formas muito curiosas, segmentadas, laminares, em forma de copa, forma de bola ou de arbusto. Uma característica destas algas é que estão formadas por uma sozinha célula, já que não existem tabiques entre os núcleos que se situam dentro destes filamentos. Desta forma tanto os núcleos como os orgânelos celulares podem se deslocar através do alga.

Algumas destas algas, como certas espécies do género Caulerpa, podem chegar a medir vários metros de comprimento, no entanto estão formadas por uma única célula.

Estas algas reproduzem-se geralmente por fragmentação. Não obstante, ante certas condições do médio toda a alga pode se transformar em milhares de células biflageladas, processo chamado holocarpia. Durante este processo, uma alga bem formada e completamente verde começa a se transformar em células nadadoras e numas quantas horas não fica mais que um esqueleto branco de paredes celulares sem vida. Quando estas células nadadoras contactam entre elas se fundem formando um zigoto que migra ao fundo onde se fixa a um substrato e começa a se alongar formando a única célula que originará ao alga adulta.

A ordem Bryopsidales encontra-se distribuído por todo mundo, a maior diversidade se encontra entre as barreiras de coral tropicais, abundando por exemplo no mar das Caraíbas.

Taxonomia
A ordem Bryopsidales inclui as seguintes famílias:
 Bryopsidaceae
 Caulerpaceae
 Chaetosiphonaceae
 Codiaceae
 Derbesiaceae
 Dichotomosiphonaceae
 Halimedaceae
 Ostreobiaceae
 Pseudocodiaceae
 Pseudoudoteaceae
 Rhipiliaceae
