The Supreme Court of the United States won't hear a challenge to a Colorado law that requires out-of-state internet retailers to tell customers how much they owe in state sales taxes.
The justices on Monday let stand a lower court ruling that said the law doesn't discriminate against interstate commerce, as online retailers had claimed.
An industry trade group representing retailers challenged the law as unconstitutional because it applies only to companies outside the state. A federal appeals court rejected that challenge.
Colorado's law doesn't require internet retailers to collect taxes, but requires them to tell customers what taxes are owed and report purchases to the state government. A 1992 Supreme Court decision bans states from forcing out-of-state retailers to collect taxes if they don't have a physical presence in the state.

California State University, East Bay (informally referred to as Cal State East Bay, CSU East Bay, East Bay, and CSUEB) is a public university in the eastern region of the San Francisco Bay Area . The university, as part of the 23-campus California State University system, offers over 100 areas of study. Cal State East Bay has been designated as a "top–tier" institution among master's–granting universities in the west by U.S. News & World Report.
Founded in 1956, Cal State East Bay has a student body of over 13,000. The university's largest and oldest campus is located in the Hayward Hills , with additional campus-sites in the cities of Oakland and Concord . Cal State East Bay is one of only a handful of universities in the California State University system to operate on the quarter system.
With multiple campuses across the region, the university adopted a new, broader mission to serve the eastern San Francisco Bay Area in 2005. To reflect the university's more widespread objective, the school changed its name from California State University, Hayward to California State University, East Bay that same year.
The university was established in 1956 as State College for Alameda County, with its primary mission to serve the higher education needs of Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. Its construction was part of the California Master Plan for Higher Education as proposed by Clark Kerr and the original site for the school was Pleasanton, California . The campus was moved to Hayward before plans were finalized due to the efforts of State Assembly member Carlos Bee and other boosters from the Hayward community. At the time of its opening in 1959, classes were held on the campus of Hayward High School. With the addition of the school, higher education in the San Francisco Bay Area became more accessible. To the south was San Jose State College (now San Jose State University ) serving the South Bay counties. To the west was San Francisco State College (now San Francisco State University ) serving San Francisco and San Mateo Counties. Chabot College , a part of the California Community College system, opened nearby in Hayward in 1961.
The university has undergone numerous transitions in its history, making name changes accordingly. In 1961, the school was moved to its present location in the Hayward Hills and renamed Alameda County State College. In 1963, the name was changed to California State College at Hayward. The school was granted university status in 1972, changing its name to California State University, Hayward. In 2005, the university implemented a new, broader mission to serve the eastern San Francisco Bay Area and adopted the name California State University, East Bay. The proposal to rename the campus to California State University, East Bay was approved by the California State University Board of Trustees on January 26, 2005.
California State University, East Bay's main campus is located in Hayward, California. Warren Hall, its signature building on top of the Hayward hills, overlooks the scenic eastern portion of the San Francisco Bay Area . The building is visible from cities throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, serving as a landmark for Hayward and the surrounding Eastern San Francisco Bay Area. California State University, East Bay also has a campus in Concord, California in Contra Costa County , and a professional development center in Oakland. Continuing education programs are available at all three locations.
A $3.4 million rebate from PG & E, the largest rebate issued to date for solar power installation.
The 2004 Business Environmental Achievement Award from the Hayward City Council.
The 2004 Green Power Leadership Award at the National Green Power Marketing Conference.
A 2005 Exceptional Project Award from the Western Council of Construction Consumers.
Since 2004, the Pioneer Amphitheatre on campus has been home of the KBLX Stone Soul Picnic, a day long festival of R&B, soul and Urban Adult Contemporary music, featured performers have included Ronald Isley, The Whispers, Teena Marie, the late Rick James, and The O'Jays. California State University, East Bay's Associated Student Incorporated also hosts concerts with artists like Lupe Fiasco and Guapele.
On May 17 2006 Mohammad Qayoumi succeeded Norma S. Rees as president of the university. Qayoumi is the first Afghan-American to lead a major American university.
The university is best known for its College of Business and Economics; a strong Education Department, where a large percentage of California teachers receive their certification; and the thriving Music Department where the California State University, East Bay Jazz Ensemble, directed by Dave Eshelman(retired June 2007), holds annual performances in Yoshi's at Jack London Square in Oakland and frequently tours Europe and parts of South America. The Biotechnology Program developed at California State University, East Bay affords the university a status as the center of research and development in the Life sciences, Bioinformatics and technologies for the Eastern San Francisco Bay Area.
California State University, East Bay also participates in the Internet2 project, a collaboration led by over 200 U.S. universities, private industries, and governments to develop advanced network technologies for research and higher education in the 21st century.
The September 1995 issue of SUCCESS magazine reported the university as one of the 25 best business schools for entrepreneurs. The ranking was based on four key criteria: qualifications of faculty, entrepreneurship curriculum, academic standards and student scores, and quality and depth of resources. The California State University, East Bay College of Business and Economics is ranked as the up and comers of the 25 schools to watch by Columbia University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and Stanford University . CSUEB has been noted for its fine collection of faculty members. In 2002, Professor Roger Baldwin received the prestigious Peet award for his superior lectures on American History.
The university was also ranked 8th among Top Regional Public Schools in the West in U.S. News and World Report's 1999 America's Best Colleges guidebook. In 2003, the College of Business and Economics was ranked by BusinessWeek as one of the Top Business Schools in the West. The Princeton Review selected California State University, East Bay, as a "Best in the West" college in 2005.
The university's Department of Communications publishes a weekly newspaper called The Pioneer, its name referring to the school mascot, Pioneer Pete. The paper is staffed by faculty and students. East Bay is one of the most diverse state universities in the country.
Associated Students Incorporated (ASI) is a student-run and student-owned organization that represents the student body at California State University, East Bay. Elected by the California State University, East Bay student body, the 15-member ASI Board of Directors is the governing body of Associated Students, Inc. The Board makes policy and oversees the fiscal responsibility of ASI. Additionally, the Board assists the University in planning, implementing, and evaluating campus programs, events, and curriculum. ASI currently has four departments: ASI Presents, ASI Business Office, Student Government, and the Early Childhood Education Center. In 2007 the University administration did not allow ASI to hold a student referendum on increasing student fees to fund a recreation and wellness center. It substituted 'alternative consultation'. In 2008, the administration again did not allow ASI to hold a referendum on increasing student fees to fund athletic scholarship for a move to Division II sports. Again, it substituted 'alternative consultation'.
MascotThe mascot of the university is the Pioneer. At the inception of the athletic program in 1961 the student body chose a spacesuit clad Space Pioneer as the mascot. In the years since the mascot was shortened to the Pioneers and took a more terrestrial image; first as a frontiersman with a coonskin cap and then as a forty-niner who is reminiscent of Yosemite Sam. In the 1980s the student body voted to change the mascot to the Vampires, but the decision was overturned by then-president Ellis McCune.
In 2005 there was talk of changing the mascot along with the university's name change. The original plan was to unveil the new mascot by the end of the 2004-2005 academic year. However, there was little student support for a mascot change; a majority of the students and faculty were in favor of keeping the Pioneer as the school mascot while supporting a redesign of the Pioneer image. A final decision on whether or not to keep the Pioneer as the mascot of the university was to be reached before the 2006-2007 academic year.
California State University, East Bay holds concurrent membership in NCAA Division III and the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). The men's and women's basketball, cross country and golf teams compete in the California Pacific Conference of the NAIA. The baseball, softball, men's and women's soccer, men's and women's water polo, women's swimming, and women's volleyball teams compete in NCAA Division III as independents. In 2009, the athletic program will be moving up to Division II and join the California Collegiate Athletic Association with other nearby California State Universities like San Francisco State University and Sonoma State University.
In 1972 and 1981, the women's outdoor track and field team won national championships. The first was an outright championship, and the second was as a member of the AIAW Division III. In 1979 and 1980 the women's cross country team won AIAW Division III national championships. In 1989 the women's soccer team won the NCAA Division II National Championship.
The California State University, East Bay Athletics Hall of Fame includes Major League Baseball players, an Olympian, several national record holders, and many All-Americans.

Aqueous dispersions of graphene, stabilised by a surfactant, have been separated according to lateral flake size using size exclusion chromatography. Transition electron microscopy was used to characterise the flake size as a function of fraction number. While the stock dispersion had a mean lateral flake size of 0.6 ?m, the separated fractions displayed clear size separation, with the second and fourteenth fractions displaying mean sizes of ~1.2 and ~0.5 microns respectively. Raman spectroscopy shows the flake D:G intensity ratio to scale inversely with the flake size indicating that any defects present are associated with flake edges rather than basal plane defects.


The sure-footed steed progressed quickly through the maze of conifers of the Evergreen Forest. Fisto had wanted to leave Talu for the palace as soon as he had regained consciousness, but Siana had insisted he stayed a while longer so his wounds could be treated. Fisto knew better than to argue with her. "I will send riders to Eternos," she had stated firmly. "They will deliver the report to King Randor. You will rest here until you are well enough to ride." In truth, Fisto was glad to remain at the settlement. The fight with Jitsu had left him with numerous injuries, and he had been torpid for the remainder of that night and for most of the following day. Siana had tended his wounds with peculiar-smelling salves, and made him drink foul-tasting concoctions that had nearly caused him to retch. Yet Siana's treatments had worked quickly, and the strength had begun to return to his body. He had set out the following morning after sleeping soundly all night. Nonetheless, he was reminded of his bruises as the galloping horse careered along the forest paths.
Fisto was an experienced rider, and he urged his steed onwards at a pace that few others would have dared in the dense woods. He also had an uncanny ability at finding paths where none existed, and was seldom lost. He had lived among forest communities for much of his life, and had learned the skills of the woodsman. Surviving alone in the Evergreen Forest would have presented no difficulties to Fisto.
Sunlight filtered through the branches, illuminating the dust motes that danced in the air as the galloping horse rushed past. Though much of it remained invisible to Fisto as he rode, the forest was full of life. The songs of thousands of birds echoed among the branches, and red squirrels darted up the tree-trunks at the sound of the horse's thunderous footfalls. Numerous other mammals scampered hurriedly away through the bracken and the undergrowth. Crouching low over the horse's neck, Fisto avoided the many branches that might have knocked him to the ground. He enjoyed the danger of this aggressive riding style, for it gave him a sense of freedom and risk that he did not allow himself in combat.
Fisto continued to ride until he reached a stream less than a league from the edge of the forest. He dismounted, and allowed the horse to drink. Even in the heat of Summer, the water remained icy cold, and Fisto drank his fill and splashed his face to cool himself. Once refreshed, he sat against a tree and listened quietly to the forest. He took pleasure in the natural landscape, and the sights and sounds filled him with a spiritual wonderment. Fisto was glad that much of Eternia's ancient land was unspoiled. Closing his eyes, he rested awhile, knowing that his steed needed recovery time before they continued their journey.
The sound of another horse trampling through the underwood disturbed Fisto's solitude. He stood quietly, using the trunk of the tree as cover, and slowly drew his sword. Peering cautiously around the tree, Fisto glimpsed a horse and rider moving carefully between the conifers. Relieved when he recognised the rider, Fisto smiled broadly and stepped into the open. "You'll draw attention to yourself making so much noise, He-Man," he called.
"That is what I intended, Fisto," replied He-Man jovially as he saw his friend. "I came to meet you. Siana's horsemen brought news of the attack."
"It was well planned," stated Fisto. "But why should Jitsu attack Talu? We found the armoury had been ransacked, but there was nothing of value in there."
"It seems that there was," replied He-Man. "Come, let us ride together. There is much to tell you."
Fisto replaced his sword in its scabbard. He walked to his horse and patted its neck before swinging himself into the saddle. The two riders guided the horses slowly through the trees as they discussed recent events.
"Unbeknownst to the people of Talu, an orb of great mystic might was hidden there centuries ago," explained He-Man as they rode. "There are two others, and one of these has already been stolen from Se'andar."
"The centaur village?" responded Fisto. "Is this Skeletor's work?"
He-Man nodded. "Nothing remains of Se'andar. Taranek and his kin have come to Eternos seeking retribution, though Randor has prevented an assault on Snake Mountain. The Sorceress fears that Skeletor will attack Grayskull."
"Tell me about these orbs," asked Fisto. He-Man obliged willingly, and as they neared the edge of the forest, He-Man spoke of all that the Sorceress had discovered. Fisto listened intently, and soon his face was grim. Several minutes passed by, and they left the forest and entered the broad expanse of the Fertile Plains.
"We must journey to the palace," He-Man stated as he and Fisto eased their horses into a striding gait. "Man-At-Arms prepares for war, and he will require our assistance!"
"Then let us ride!" shouted Fisto, urging his steed into a gallop, and rushing past the younger man. He-Man reacted at once, and soon the two warriors were racing across the meadowland towards Eternos.
Passing swiftly along the damp, rock-hewn corridors of Snake Mountain, Skeletor and Evil-Lyn discussed the strategy to conquer Castle Grayskull. The flickering torches on the wet walls cast a sinister glow over Skeletor's bony face; their flames fanned by the billowing of his great cloak. Evil-Lyn had to quicken her pace to an uncomfortable stride in order to keep up with the Lord of Destruction. "So your encounter with Kor'san'tach was successful," she remarked.
"Failure was not an option," retorted Skeletor. "The dragon fell to the greater power, Evil-Lyn."
"Your plan appears to be working, Skeletor, but you will meet with resistance eventually."
"I do not need to be reminded of that, Evil-Lyn," snapped Skeletor. "Yet that is only to be expected. Randor will fight, but this time he will be defeated. How do our preparations for battle fare?"
"The warriors of Snake Mountain are ready to deploy at once," replied Evil-Lyn. "Tri-Klops and Zodac have summoned the Clan of the Skull, and Levyek marches to Snake Mountain as we speak. Whiplash has journeyed to the Vine Jungle to coerce some of your more reluctant servants."
"Good," remarked Skeletor, stopping suddenly. He paused for a moment as if in thought. "I shall send Beast Man to assist him. And what of you, Evil-Lyn? Have you interpreted Trath's scrolls correctly?"
"I am confident that the codes have been deciphered," she replied nervously. "The incantation is an intriguing blend of physics and magic."
"When Jitsu returns with the last orb, we shall see if your translation is as accurate as you promise," stated Skeletor menacingly. "I do not tolerate failure, Evil-Lyn."
"There will be no mistakes, Skeletor," she said, struggling to keep her voice steady. Skeletor glared at her for a moment, before turning away and marching rapidly down the rocky tunnel. Skeletor disappeared into the darkness, and Evil-Lyn was relieved to be alone. She was under no illusions about Skeletor. He would kill her the moment she was of no use to him. It was fortunate that her magical ability surpassed Skeletor's, for this fact alone kept her alive. Yet she feared this would one day also prove to be her downfall, for while Skeletor needed her talents at present, he was insanely jealous of her skills. Her tactic thus far had been to express complete disinterest in Skeletor's psychotic desire for power. It was a perilous game she played, and she was wary of the dangers. Skeletor was complex and unpredictable, and despite his ravings about many subjects, he rarely spoke of himself. Evil-Lyn suspected that Skeletor's past was a mysterious one, and she was determined to learn more.
The war council began as soon as He-Man and Fisto returned to the palace. The mood in the chamber was sombre. King Randor stood at the head of the table, leaning over a large map of Eternia. His face looked deeply troubled. He had confronted dire situations before, as had his companions in the room, but few conflicts, if any, had posed the risk that they now faced. Man-At-Arms stood near the king, and his attention was also directed at the map. The Sorceress of Grayskull stood at the far end of the table.
"Remind me of our position, Man-At-Arms," asked Randor.
"We have troops camped in the vicinity of Grayskull, and several battalions hidden in the Evergreen Forest," answered Man-At-Arms. "Taranek has overall command. He is ready to advance."
"Advance?" questioned the king. "Is the purpose not to defend Grayskull?"
"Indeed it is, sire," responded Man-At-Arms. "However, it would appear that Skeletor builds an army in the Dark Continent. My contact in Marwoleth has informed me that the Clan of the Skull are headed to Snake Mountain. I believe we should blockade Skeletor's army long before he reaches Grayskull."
"How are we to know if Skeletor has all three orbs?" asked Fisto.
"We must assume he has found them," replied the Sorceress sadly. "Talu and Se'andar have fallen, and Zoar has seen the corpse of Kor'san'tach in the Dragonslayer Mountains."
"We can fight Skeletor's armies, but how do we fight his magic?" questioned He-Man.
"Alas, I have no answers to give you, He-Man," the Sorceress replied softly. "The voices of the Ancient Ones are unclear. This is a new threat. Trath realised the danger of his experiment, and secretly hid the orbs before they could be used for evil purposes. There is no known defence."
"Skeletor could be victorious even if we crushed his army," remarked Man-At-Arms. "His conquest of Eternia would be inevitable if he breached Grayskull."
"It seems to me that Skeletor has little need for an army," stated Fisto. "He could travel to Grayskull on his own."
"You are right, my friend," replied King Randor. "Yet that will not happen. He will lead his warriors into combat against me. For decades I have plagued his thoughts and humiliated him in countless battles. I represent the thorn in his side. Skeletor longs to see me die."
"I agree with King Randor," stated Man-At-Arms. "However, we cannot predict Skeletor's moves with absolute certainty. Castle Grayskull will remain guarded while the greater part of our army heads east. I would prefer to march as soon as possible, so that we may engage the enemy beyond the Great Wall. As we speak, Teela rides to Avion to request the assistance of Stratos. We will need the birdmen to observe the progress of Skeletor's forces."
"So what do we do?" questioned Fisto.
"Fisto, you will return to the Evergreen Forest," replied Man-At-Arms. "There is a company of royal guards waiting at Thunder Fall. You will take command and wait for a report from Stratos. Randor and I will lead the army across the Great Wall. He-Man will wait at Castle Grayskull with Battle Ram until we have a sighting of Skeletor."
"Sorceress, I ask that you return to Grayskull," Randor said. "Continue to search the vaults for a means to defeat Skeletor. If his power is as great as we fear, He-Man will need all the help you can provide."
"I shall try, Randor," the Sorceress said, but her voice was sorrowful. "Meanwhile, I shall send Zoar directly to Snake Mountain. Perhaps the falcon's observations may assist Man-At-Arms' strategy."
"I am grateful," said Man-At-Arms. "Ask Zoar to return as soon as the enemy marches."
There was silence in the war room as those present considered the roles they would play in the forthcoming conflict. They were confident in Man-At-Arms' strategy, but that did nothing to overcome the revulsion they all felt at the thought of war. Blood would be shed and lives would be lost. Loyal Eternian soldiers would die, leaving behind widows and orphans. No matter how noble the cause, such needless sacrifice was a tragedy of epic proportions. There was never any glory in war, and every victory was bitter with the taste of death.
Randor stood up straight, banishing the memories of many earlier battles from his thoughts. "Loyal friends, we fight for Eternia. Skeletor and his vermin must not be allowed to swarm across our peaceful land! Go now and prepare yourselves. We march at daybreak." Randor turned to the doorway and strode from the room.
"Farewell, my friends," the Sorceress said. "I must return to the fortress."
"Have courage, Sorceress," said He-Man. "We will prevail."
The Sorceress smiled weakly at the young warrior, but did not reply. With a sudden burst of energy, she was gone.
"That's a good trick," murmured Fisto with a grin. His comment lightened the mood, and Man-At-Arms and He-Man smiled at his words. "Well, I can't fight on an empty stomach," Fisto added. "I trust the kitchens are still open?" He wandered casually from the room.
He-Man waited while Man-At-Arms rolled up the map, and replaced it in a rack on the wall. "It seems you have considered everything, Man-At-Arms," he remarked.
"I have evaluated the facts I know of," Man-At-Arms replied. "Yet ultimately it will be your confrontation with Skeletor that decides our fate. I do not envy the encumbrance you carry, He-Man."
"You have trained me well, my friend," said He-Man, slowly drawing the Powersword and holding it aloft. "Yet there is one thing that troubles me. Let us walk together."
The two men left the room via a door that opened directly on to the battlements of the palace. The view over the Fertile Plains was magnificent, but they barely noticed the panorama.
"You are concerned for Teela, are you not?" questioned Man-At-Arms.
He-Man nodded. "It is a perilous route to Avion on horseback, my friend."
"I agree, He-Man," his companion replied. "But do you doubt Teela's abilities? She is a fine warrior and survival expert. You should have more confidence in her."
"I do not question her skills," He-Man replied hastily. "Yet it is a journey that none of us enjoy alone."
"Worry not, He-Man. Besides, she isn't on horseback. I have taken the liberty of borrowing your Battle Cat for the task. I trust you have no objections?"
He-Man smiled broadly. "As I said, Man-At-Arms, it seems you have considered everything."

Wall Street Journal | BrightFarms Raises $55 Million in New Funding Round
Indoor farming specialist will use backing to expand a greenhouse network that grows produce close to metropolitan areas, reducing shipping costs
By Jennifer Smith
Indoor farming startup BrightFarms Inc. said Thursday it has raised $55 million in a new funding round to open more hydroponic greenhouses across the U.S. as it seeks to capitalize on rising demand for locally grown food.
The Irvington, N.Y.,-based company sells packaged lettuce and other salad greens to retailers including Kroger Co. , Walmart Inc. WMT -1.00% and Koninklijke Ahold DelhaizeADRNY 0.30% NV. The crops are grown in glass-roofed, 140,000 square-foot farms near metropolitan areas, a method the company says reduces freight costs and ensures a year-round supply of greens with a longer shelf life than lettuce trucked in from the West Coast.
American tastes are changing as consumers turn away from packaged products. Shoppers also increasingly want to know where their food came from, a factor thrown into sharp relief by contamination episodes like the deadly E. coli outbreak this spring linked to romaine lettuce, which rippled through the U.S. food supply chain.
BrightFarms is one of several startups looking to capture market share from conventional growers by raising crops indoors. They employ technology, including LED lights and temperature and moisture sensors, and typically use less water and land than traditional farms.
Many focus on lettuce and herbs, which have short growing cycles and do well in controlled environments. This week, for example, "vertical farming" operator Crop One Holdings Inc. announced a joint project with airline catering firm Emirates Flight Catering to build a $40-million facility in Dubai that the companies said will produce three tons of leafy greens a day.
Founded in 2011, BrightFarms has more than 120 employees and operates three farms in Bucks County, Pa., Culpeper County, Va., and Rochelle, Ill. It is opening a facility outside Cincinnati this summer in Wilmington, Ohio, and is about to begin construction on another in Abilene, Texas, that it expects to go online in early 2019. The company is also scouting out additional potential locations, including two in California, where much of the lettuce in the U.S. is grown.

Catalyst-backed BrightFarms' locally-grown lettuce and basil are currently in 650 stores including Walmart, Kroger, Ahold, and Albertsons locations. In two years, the brand has grown its distribution by 225% reaching a household penetration of 1.5 million.

NOC-SOC
It's been a fantastic journey from Kolkata in 1997 to worldwide power in 2022. Initially, the company leveraged its fiber optic wiring skills for system integrators. FNSPL began offering Cisco, Tyco, and other network solutions. FNSPL is one of India's greatest system integrators because it's worked with PricewaterhouseCoopers, TCS, Vodafone, Tata Motors, and Standard Chartered. As managed services gained relevance, the company became a trusted MSP for Accenture.
Singapore and the USA joined FNSPL later. FNSPL's AI/ML-powered managed services are well regarded. The company now works in 5G. It has a robust DevSecOps team for telecom providers. In Dallas, AI/ML and automation are being used to test and monitor 5G use cases and networks.
Future Netwings' business grows as technology does. It will always stay ahead as a partner of choice for businesses trying to digitally change because of its years of experience and ability to catch up with new trends.
A company's core IT services business can only be sustained and expanded by expanding into new markets; purchasing and expanding existing businesses; as well as implementing and developing new business models and solutions.
Aiming to establish itself as a global leader in IT solutions and services, Future Netwings aspires to be known and appreciated as a company that provides unmatched product and service quality while upholding the highest standards of integrity and professionalism. These efforts will be carried out by an enthusiastic and well-trained workforce that has access to a wide range of educational resources.
The growth of a business depends on using cutting-edge marketing strategies and talking to current and potential customers in person. If you want to offer a single-window solution to a wider range of customers, you need to branch out into related business areas. You can't keep up with the competition if you can't keep hiring and keeping the best people.
Jaideep Chakrabarti
Jaideep is one of the few who started a business after graduation. During his 1996 science degree, he did this. Future Netwings Solutions is one of India's fastest-growing IT companies. International Data Group named it one of India's "Premier 100" IT businesses (IDG).
He's terrific at breaking into new business areas and becoming a leader since he's dedicated, tenacious, and skilled at developing great teams. His PR talents, charm, and honesty have helped him build long-term connections with high-profile companies. Jaideep is a "Paul Harris Fellow" since he's a social activist.
Spiritualism is a large part of his life due to the values he gained at Ramkrishna Mission, Narendrapur, and Master Choa Kok Sui's Pranic Healing. This helps him expand his business and manage his time. He's also enjoying cricket.

Q: Display the output in Android app using XSLT in Phonegap I am using new bee for Phonegap and already built one mobile app. I want to use Phonegap with xslt as a display. Can u please suggest how to do that with Phonegap?

A: You wish to use XSLT to turn XML into HTML and show on the screen, using Phonegap? I think you just need to look for Javascript tutorials on XSL. If you are familiar with jquery this will be even easier.
Never mind Phonegap as your script will be the same: take document, apply transform, and place results into a <div>.

redpajama_set_name: RedPajamaStackExchange


Our red maeng da is a must try. We consider this one of the go to strains at TKS. 100% wild grown kratom located in very hard to reach remote areas of Indonesia. A multi day trip is made by boat and these leaves are hand picked and brought back to be dried and crushed. The quality and potency of these batches are hard to beat due to the generations of families that understand were to find these trees and most importantly how to process the leaves.
Very Red in color. I start my day with 3-4 grams of this Red. This is a great price for high quality Maeng da. Good pain relief and euphoric. State of mind.
This is a pretty decent red. Good pain relief and very relaxing.
I am so so thankful for TKS!
I am new to the world of Kratom and the only one I have tried is the Red Maeng Da. Neccessity sent me on a search for something to help with opiate withdrawal. I ordered some from a different website, paid twice as much for much much less than the 8oz packet I ordered from TKS. I was a little freaked out due to the fact I could not just put my credit card info in & purchase. I made my first order, downloaded the cash.me app and made payment. 5 days later my order was still on hold. So I emailed TKS & they had not received my payment. What? Well I reviewed my payment details & somehow made the payment to the wrong recipient! Totally not TKS fault! I was able to cancel that payment & do it correctly. They shipped my order the same day. If you are ordering for the first time, download the cash.me app first, then make the payment through the link they provide. My package arrived within a few days, all the way across the ocean. And my order contained 2 free samples and a scoop! I will look no further for a Kratom supplier. I'm one very satisfied customer. And if you are looking for Kratom to ease opiate withdrawal symptoms, I'm telling you IT WORKS!! Start with a lower dose & work up to an amount where you can be comfortable & be a productive human instead of being miserable. One thing I discovered is the red Maeng Da has a stimulating effect & I can't take it near bedtime. I'm going to try some others in hopes to find something less stimulating for night time. For now i take it a few hours before bed & that works. I just wish Kratom wasn't so terrible tasting! But I am getting used to it. The relief it provides is worth the bad taste. Bought some empty capsules but haven't taken the time to fill them. Bottom line is this: TKS = great product, awesome prices and excellent customer service. Give them a try....you will not be disappointed!
great if you have chronic pain i use 6/7 grams dose and yes it helps with nerve pain very happy with this sometimes if needed I add 100X than I'm set for a "pain free day" thank you so much for this "TKS Rocks"
I personally haven't found a red md that works for me as a solo act (my body chemistry I suppose). This red md is no exception and I prefer to mix it with the md blend or cloud 9 as I'm more of a red fan. Works great for that purpose. This is by no means bad Kratom and many of the reviewers seem to enjoy it. It takes a bit to kick in (30 min.- 1 hour) as any good md should and provides a longer burn. The burn does seem to work for analgesic needs but I personally find it lacking in euphoria. If red mds usually work for you I would still recommend it.
This red was amazing for pain! I have a lot of lower back pain and this stuff always eases that pain away and makes me feel relaxed.
Syndicate has amazing Red MD. It is a high quality red vein and the prices are great. I am extremely happy with The Syndicate and will be using their services for now on.
Didn't have high expectations for this one because its doesn't have a five star rating like most strains but I gotta say this is a super relaxing and strong red. Right up there on the same level as the red bali IMO.
This is the Premo guys. This ones pain relief is absolutely amazing! Put it on the Top Shelf and dont share with your friends unless you wanna blow minds!

Fact-Checked
Editors carefully fact-check all Drugwatch content for accuracy and quality.
Drugwatch has a stringent fact-checking process. It starts with our strict sourcing guidelines.
We only gather information from credible sources. This includes peer-reviewed medical journals, reputable media outlets, government reports, court records and interviews with qualified experts.
Disposal Sites & Events
Steps for Household Trash Disposal
Flushing Drugs
Home Health Medical Device and Drug Disposal
Pills, patches and needles can pose unintended and potentially fatal threats if they aren't disposed of properly. That's why authorities created regulations for safe disposal of prescription drugs and medical devices.
All expired, unwanted or unused drugs and devices, including prescription pills, liquids, patches and over-the-counter medicines, inhalers and injectable products, should be disposed of as quickly and securely as possible. The goal is to help reduce the chance of accidental or intentional exposure.
The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration provide guidelines and regulations for safe disposal of all unused medicines and potentially dangerous devices, such as syringes used to administer certain medicines.
The rules are intended to prevent:
Harm to children, pets and others
Medicine cabinet mix-ups
Abuse or misuse, especially by teens and young adults
Harm to the environment, especially when disposed of improperly (i.e. pouring certain liquid medicines down the drain)
Drug Disposal Sites and Events
The DEA works with local governments and private entities to provide safe drug disposal opportunities for the public. You can find DEA-authorized collectors online.
Local governments and law enforcement agencies also participate in drug-disposal events. More than 4,200 local governments across the country participated in the DEA's last National Prescription Drug Take Back Day in November.
Consumers got rid of a record 912,305 pounds of unwanted pills during National Prescription Drug Take Back Day in November 2017.
The public dropped off a record 456 tons of medications at 5,300 collection sites. That marked a six-ton increase from the previous drug-disposal event earlier in 2017.
If a patient has questions regarding the safe disposal of a medication or device, they should contact their pharmacist. Local health departments can also assist with instructions for disposal or the retrieval of sharps disposal containers. The local waste management service may be able to answer questions about whether certain drugs or devices can be disposed of in a person's household trash.
Most medicines, including prescription and over-the-counter drugs, pills, liquids, creams, etc., can be thrown into the household trash, unless otherwise instructed on the label. To properly throw away used or expired medications in the kitchen or bathroom garbage cans, there are a few steps people should take:
Mix any leftover medicines with an inedible substance such as dirt, kitty litter or used coffee grounds. The point is to make the mixture unappealing to both children and animals.
Place the mixture in closed container, such as a sealable plastic bag.
Throw the container with the mixture into the household trash.
Use a permanent marker to black out all personal information on prescription labels of empty pill bottles or other medicine packaging. Then discard the materials.
Disposing of Inhaler Products
Inhalers and other aerosol products can pose an environmental concern if they are punctured or thrown into a fire or incinerator during disposal.
Inhalers are portable devices that administer a type of drug that is to be breathed in. These products are often used by patients who have asthma or other breathing problems, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Common inhalers include:
Short-acting bronchodilators, such as albuterol (brand names Proventil, Ventolin and Xopenex)
Long-acting beta agonists (brand names Advair and Serevent)
Inhaled steroids (brand names Flovent and Qvar)
When disposing of inhalers, people should read instructions on the labeling and follow local regulations and laws regarding the disposal of aerosol products. Most inhalers can be safely thrown into the household trash or recycled.
Disposing of Injectable Products
Unused or expired injectable products, such as those used to take insulin for diabetic patients, can be safely disposed of using a sharps disposal container. If a person needs assistance obtaining such a container, contacting your pharmacist that dispensed the injectable medicine is a good place to start.
Injectable products include:
Needles and pen needles
Auto injectors and pens (pre-filled devices)
Vials containing an injectable product
Short-, rapid-, intermediate- and long-acting insulin medicines, including Humulin, NovoLog, FlexPen, Novolin, Levemir, Lantus and Tresiba, are all injectable products that require safe disposal via a sharps disposal container.
Other injectable products may include:
Fertility drugs (follicle stimulating hormone – FSH, Pergonal, Metrodin, Pregnyl, Novarel, Lupron, Synarel and Antagon)
Antibiotics (Apo-ampi)
Allergy medicines (Dimetapp – brompheniramine maleate)
Anti-anxiety medicines (Ativan – lorazepam and Librium – chlordiazepoide)
Antipsychotics (Thorazine – chlorpromazine)
Testosterone (Testopel, Depo-Testosterone and Aveed)
A sharps container is designed for disposal of sharps waste
Sharps disposal containers should only be filled about three-quarters full before the container is disposed of. Sharps containers should never be overfilled. All injectable products should be safely and securely out-of-sight and out of immediate reach in a sharps disposal container.
Sharps disposal guidelines may vary depending on where a person lives. Patients should follow local guidelines regarding the safe disposal of sharps containers.
Whenever possible, a patient should attempt to secure a sharps disposal container with a mail-back box, which allows for injectable products to be returned after use to a company for disposal.
People can check with their local trash removal service or health department to learn about safe methods for disposal of sharps containers where they live.
Some medicines can be especially harmful — in some cases, fatal — to others. To prevent accidental exposure or ingestion of these substances by children, pets or others, you should dispose of these medications immediately and responsibly when no longer needed.
Although some drug labels recommend flushing, counties in every state across the country offer safe disposal of medications. To ensure the safety of your family and pets, always keep medications out of reach in a locked medicine cabinet until you are ready to dispose of them at a local drug take-back event or at your pharmacy, hospital or health department.
Never flush medications down the toilet or sink.
Please seek the advice of a medical professional before making health care decisions.

More than 15 years into my career, I've now had three institutions and more than a decade under my belt, with a few more years in newspapers and a stop in private industry for a couple more. Here's what I've learned.
Are Your Digital Devices Rewiring Your Brain?
Pushing the envelope in higher education is not always easy, so imagine the challenge when you want to transform the envelope into a zombie that wants to eat your students' brains.
I love higher education. But like any relationship, what originally attracts and enchants can later be irritating and disappointing.
Reuben's keynote discussed the value of changing and challenging traditional approaches to both the Web and marketing, but also noted the value of principles from "old school" companies.
What exactly would you say, you know, you do here?
People go by many names and titles, be it web manager, specialist, strategist, master, maven, guru or overlord. Titles are about as useful as job descriptions in predicting what exactly you will do.
In the summer of 2009, I was about done with higher ed. In two different jobs at two different colleges, I felt as though I was always being held back from doing all I could do online, mostly due to political nonsense that had nothing to do with meeting goals and objectives.

Q: How to succinctly assign a range of one array to a range of another array? Background reading
I'm re-writing some Verilog code in C/C++, and in Verilog you can do something like this:
for (i = 0; i < N; i = i + 1) begin
     if (condition(i)) begin
          data_out[index*WIDTH +: WIDTH] = data_in[i*WIDTH +: WIDTH];
          index = index + 1;
     end
end

Where at this line:
data_out[index*WIDTH +: WIDTH] = data_in[i*WIDTH +: WIDTH];

We're saying assign the section of data_in starting at position i*WIDTH up to i*WIDTH + WIDTH - 1 to the section of data_out starting at position index*WIDTH up to index*WIDTH + WIDTH - 1.
Similarly, in Python I could do something like this:
>>> arr1 = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
>>> arr2 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
>>>
>>> arr1[1:3] = arr2[0:2]
>>>
>>> print arr1, arr2
['a', 1, 2, 'd'] [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

I know I can write this in C by using an extra loop:
for (i = 0; i < N; i = i + 1) {
      if (condition(i)) {
           for (k = 0; k < WIDTH; k = k + 1) {
               data_out[index*WIDTH + k] = data_in[i*WIDTH + k];
           }
           index = index + 1;
      }
 }

But this is a little tedious when these assignments happen quite often and in nested loops. I'm hoping there's a smarter way.
Question
Is there a succinct way to write:
arr1[INDEX_A to INDEX_B] = arr2[INDEX_C to INDEX_D];

or
arr1[STARTING_POSITION_A to SOME_WIDTH] = arr2[STARTING_POSITION_B to SOME_WIDTH];

I'm specifically interested in an array of booleans if that simplifies the problem.
I can also use C++ for this, but would prefer if the code used simple data types and arrays instead of vectors because it's getting synthesized to hardware and the simpler it is the easier that is.

A: You can use memcpy to copy multiple array elements:
memcpy(&data_out[index*WIDTH], &data_in[i*WIDTH], WIDTH*sizeof(*data_in));

The first parameter is the destination memory address, the second is the source address, and the third is the number of bytes to copy.
Note that you need to multiply the number of element by the size of an element in bytes to get the total byte count.

A: Something along these lines:
std::copy(data_in + i*WIDTH, data_in + (i+1)*WIDTH, data_out + index*WIDTH);

or equivalently
std::copy(&data_in[i*WIDTH], &data_in[i*WIDTH]+WIDTH, &data_out[index*WIDTH]);


As I pointed out last week, WFM has gross margins that are much higher than the average supermarket's. WFM also turns its inventory in a little less than two weeks, which is two or three times the rate of a typical grocery store. Over the past several years, it has been generating over a billion dollars in annual cash flow.
On the other hand, sales are falling. The largest use WFM has been making of the money it generates is to buy back stock ($2 billion worth over the past three years). Its working capital management seems to produce much less cash for it than rivals–although this may be the result of an unusual product mix and/or worry that the current poor sales trend will continue.
In addition, it appears WFM is attempting to extend its brand downmarket with the opening of 365 stores–a tacit acknowledgement that its core high-end market is saturated. In my experience, though, this strategy rarely works. Its main effect is typically to degrade the upscale image of the main brand. Tiffany is the only exception I can think of.
–according to a Morgan Stanley survey, which I read about in the Wall Street Journal, 62% of WSM's current customers are already members of Amazon Prime. Arguably, there's a big opportunity for AMZN to increase the frequency/amount of WSM purchases through the Prime network.
From its high in early 2015, the WFM had almost been cut in half–in a market that was rising by 15%–before Wall Street began to anticipate a couple of months ago that the company would be either restructured or sold. Although I'm by no means an expert on WFM, that negative price action is hard to ignore. So, too, the declining sales trend.
The picture that emerges to me is of an high-end retailer that has saturated its niche and whose chief product–healthy, but expensive, food–is being commoditized by rivals. To date, management has marshaled no adequate response to this competitive threat.
AMZN provides a face-saving way for WSM to retain its counterculture self-image while turning over its market problem to more competent hands.

2016 NBA Draft: Milwaukee Bucks select high school big man Thon Maker
By Aron Yohannes and Frank Madden Jun 23, 2016, 7:41pm CDT
Share All sharing options for: 2016 NBA Draft: Milwaukee Bucks select high school big man Thon Maker
The Milwaukee Bucks have made a habit of making big gambles on draft night. Thursday night might be their biggest yet.
With the No. 10 overall pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, the Bucks drafted Australian big man Thon Maker, in the process shocking many observers who thought the highly touted high school big man might slip to the late first or even second round. A 7'1", 218-pounder with elite physical tools, Maker is considered one of the rawest prospects in the draft, though he reportedly impressed with his perimeter shooting in predraft workouts.
"We're really excited about him." Bucks general manager John Hammond said of Maker. "You're always concerned if you can put your head on the pillow at night knowing if you drafted somebody you can trust. We felt that with Thon. We know he's going to do everything he can to be the best player he can be."
Perhaps more worryingly, reports emerged on Thursday morning that some teams believed Maker could two or three years older than his listed age of 19, which would of course prove a major red flag. Presumably the Bucks don't believe that to be true, especially considering Milwaukee was burned by a similar situation with Yi Jianlian in 2007.
As for his game, we wrote about Maker's boom-bust potential last week following a workout in Milwaukee:
If my Twitter feed and our comment section are any indication, everyone has an opinion of the 7'1" Sudan-born, Australia-raised, America- and Canada-educated big man, though relatively few people have actually seen him play beyond his mouth-watering YouTube mixtapes. If you want a sample of him playing against some of the other prospects from this year's draft, you canwatch the full Nike Hoops Summit from 2015, which featured Maker (0/5 fg, 2/4 ft, 2 pts, 10 rebs in 14 minutues) as well as Ben Simmons, Brandon Ingram, Jamal Murray, Skal Labissiere, Cheick Diallo, and Stephen Zimmerman among many others.
Bear in mind that game was a year ago, but that's also why seeing him up close against real competition is so important for the Bucks and the rest of the league. Some 3-on-3 isn't much to go on from a competition standpoint, but it at least provides some proxy for how Maker compares head-to-head against a savvy college player like Johnson and a physical, non-stop motor guy in Onuaku. All three have a reasonable chance of sneaking into the later half of the first round, with Maker's range rumored to be the widest -- anywhere from late lottery to early in the second.
So what might Maker look like at the NBA level? It's obviously a topic of much debate, though there's little question that he has elite measurables (7'3" wingspan, 36.5" max vertical at 218 pounds), a non-stop motor and a great personality to boot. Those traits alone will likely get him drafted somewhere in the first round, and the team that takes him will also be hoping that Maker's good shooting in workouts is the start of a burgeoning offensive game as well. Whatever happens, Chad Ford writes that at least one GM thinks Maker should be thinking big -- perhaps literally more than figuratively.
"I think he'll eventually be a 5 in our league," the GM said. "He's got the size. He plays really hard. He's a tough kid. I think his defense will come along a lot quicker than the offense.
"I'd have him watch Tyson Chandler video. Rudy Gobert. Those guys were thin, too. He can do more than those guys can on the perimeter, I'm just not sure his NBA coach will want him to."
The offensive end is also where opinions about Maker seem to diverge the most. For all his tools, I've seen a number of references to him lacking not just polish but also feel,and to me that would be the biggest question mark for anyone considering drafting Maker in the late lotto range. It's one thing to be raw, but "feel" typically describes a more intangible, unteachable quality enveloping a murky combination of things like instincts, basketball IQ and coordination.
Some of those things improve over time, but they're not really things you can just coach up; Giannis Antetokounmpo may have been extremely raw as an 18-year-old playing in the Greek second division, but his instincts and feel were easy to see even in that setting. In contrast, Maker was never bashful about taking threes and trying to show off his ballhandling in high school -- that's the subject of many of his YouTube clips -- but one man's "guard skills" are another man's "big guy looking kinda clunky and getting away with it because of his competition level." Personally, I wouldn't put much stock into the idea of Maker ever being an advanced ballhandler or playing like a small forward; it's not to completely discredit some of the stuff he was able to do in high school, but being able to do it in constructive ways at the NBA level is entirely different.
The good news for Maker is that he doesn't need to be a 7'1" Kevin Durant. Maker stacks up favorably by any measurable against the likes of Skal Labissiere and Deyonta Davis, and those are the guys we should be comparing him against moving forward. For now, the fact that most scouts continue to peg him at least a tier below those guys suggests that there's something about his game they really don't see adding up. It could prove an example of scouts seeing past the YouTube bluster that has seduced many fans, or Maker could prove the steal of the 2016 draft Hopefully the Bucks were able to differentiate between fact and fiction on Wednesday, though it may be years before we know for sure.
The Bucks at this moment have no more picks in the first round of the draft. They currently have picks No. 36 and 38 in the second round.
