Q: How to setup @Autowired on JdbcTemplate in my CustomAuthenticationProvider without getting a null pointer exception? I have read and tried couple of Stackoverflow recommendation on the topic without luck.
I keep getting nullpointer on my JdbcTemplate object which is autowired.
I have the following code:
@Component
@ComponentScan()
public class CustomAuthenticationProvider implements AuthenticationProvider {

         @Autowired
         private JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate;//Getting nullpointer on that Object
}

My datasource config class:
@Configuration()
public class DatabaseConfiguration {

    @Bean
    @Primary
    @ConfigurationProperties(prefix = "spring.datasource")
    public javax.sql.DataSource primaryDataSource() {
        return DataSourceBuilder.create().build();
    }

    @Bean
    public JdbcTemplate getJdbcTemplate() {
        return new JdbcTemplate(primaryDataSource());
    }

}

My controller class, where JdbcTemplate works:
@Controller
public class SignInController {

    @Autowired
    JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate;
}

My security config file where jdbc template works as well
@Configuration
@ComponentScan
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
      @Autowired
      JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate;
}

My error message:

How should I modify my code to be able to autowire JdbcTemplate in my CustomAuthenticationProvider class, and what cause the problem with autowiring?

A: You are configuring your own data source and JdbcTemplate, but Spring is also. Try excluding DataSourceAutoConfiguration.
@SpringBootApplication(exclude = DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class)


Columns of the Christophoronomicon: Oh No! Not Another One!
This is my first (non-filler) post to my blog, so please excuse the awkwardness. I'm like a small bird learning to fly (and hoping not to ram his head into the ground).
When I first thought of starting my own weblog, I kept having the same thoughts: why should I start a blog now? In a world where everyone and their grandmother is already blogging, why should I expect anyone to be interested in whatever I wanted to talk about?
These worries haven't left my mind I must say. However, the reasons why a blog might actually be something worth starting became clearer with time, and eventually overruled my original thoughts. So I signed up, chose a title, a URL, a template... and found myself in the dreaded situation of the First Post.
I quickly made a small filler post, just to give myself some thinking time. But writer's block was already creeping in. What should my first article look like? Should I start with a presentation of myself? But readers would get just as much information by clicking on my profile, and I would probably look like an egocentric know-it-all (I'm not saying I'm not an egocentric know-it-all, I'm just saying I'd rather have you discover that later on). Should I just start directly with an article on some meaningful matter? But that feels so impersonal. One just can't start a meeting without a bit of informal chit-chat first.
And then it hit me: I should introduce the blog itself, and explain why I decided to start one in the first place. It'd serve as a nice formal introduction, and would help me jump over that first-post block. And who knows, you might even find this interesting.
I already have a website. However, it's in dire need of a revamp, both of the contents and the presentation (which is why I don't link to it. It's just too shameful. To give you an idea, think pre-2000 presentation, backgrounds making the text unreadable, the worst presentational HTML you could ever find on Internet, and more than half the site in perpetual "under construction" state). I've been meaning to redesign it from scratch, now that I've learned things like XHTML and CSS, as well as good web practices, but I never managed to actually start the work. I hope to use this blog as a platform to bootstrap this redesign work. That's also why I chose Blogger to host it. Having the code of the templates available for tinkering is a great way to actually practice webdesign, without having to start from scratch (so expect the site to change shape quite often in the next months).
A side-effect of my website's status-quo is that I haven't updated it since 2005. It's just too painful. But things have changed a lot in my life, and the information available on the site is now extremely outdated. Moreover, I know quite a few people who are interested in what I had been writing, and I've been neglecting them for far too long. This blog will give new breath to my online life.
I actually was once a journalist... OK, that's exaggerated, I've just been editor-in-chief and article writer of the university newspaper. But it felt like journalism, people seemed to appreciate my work (even when they disagreed with my editorials), and more importantly: I liked doing it. And I've been missing an outlet to write my thoughts and comments. Forums and comment areas on other blogs can only get you so far. I just needed my own place.
So now that things are set, let's get started! I hope you'll enjoy the ride!

Most round the world tickets are a series of single tickets with a number of airlines from the two main alliances - The 'One World" alliance and the "Star Alliance". Most are mileage based and the fare you pay obviously rises as your maximum mileage allowance increases, though there are tickets that are continent or region based.
Both alliances have their strengths and weaknesses - for example, the Star Alliance tickets can offer a wider number of destinations in South East Asia compared to One World, but because they don't include Quantas, internal flights within Australia can be limited.
We chose the Oneworld Explorer 3 Continent ticket which gives us up to 4 flights in both S.East Asia and Australasia and 6 flights in N. America (inc. Central America). As with all Explorer tickets, you can have a total of up to 20 flights, including 2 within the continent of origin and also the intercontinental flights. We found this one to be the best value for our route as there are no mileage or backtracking restrictions.
It took us a long time to decide where we wanted to travel, bearing in mind the restraints of the air tickets, time and money. Although we had a rough idea of a few of the places that we must see, we need advice as to what possible routing were.
We went to the major companies that deal with independent travel e.g. Travel bag, Trailfinders and STA, often visiting more than one of their London branch. The quality of the staff varied considerably - often they would just provide you with a quick quote and were not really in a position to make some suggestions.
We finally met Jen at STA's Soho branch, in April 2003, who listened carefully to us and spent an awful long time helping us shape our itinerary. Not only was she able to make suggestions on possible different routings, she had been to a number of the places that we intended to travel to and give us some detailed information. Not only that, she was happy to listen to any suggestions or routes that we had found ourselves on the airlines' timetables. She has been great help throughout our preparation and we can recommend her, although it is important that you find the agent that understands you and is prepared to spend time with you - persevere!
Well, where do we start? We traipsed around most of the outdoor shops in Central London. Although most were helpful, some had staff that were more knowledgeable than others - we can particularly recommend Itchy Feet on Wardour Street.
Rucksack - we both decided on the Karrimor Global 50-70L which seemed to have the right compromise between size and, because it's a travel bag style, the harness can be zipped away to save it from getting damaged by airline baggage handlers.

A People's History of the Vampire Uprising
Raymond A. Villareal
In this ambitious and wildly original debut -- part social-political satire, part international mystery -- a new virus turns people into something a bit more than human, upending society as we know it.
This panoramic fictional oral history begins with one small mystery: the body of a young woman found in an Arizona border town, presumed to be an illegal immigrant, disappears from the town morgue. To the young CDC investigator called in to consult with the local police, it's an impossibility that threatens her understanding of medicine.
Then, more bodies, dead from an inexplicable disease that solidified their blood, are brought to the morgue, only to also vanish. Soon, the U.S. government -- and eventually biomedical researchers, disgruntled lawmakers, and even an insurgent faction of the Catholic Church -- must come to terms with what they're too late to stop: an epidemic of vampirism that will sweep first the United States, and then the world.
With heightened strength and beauty and a stead diet of fresh blood, these changed people, or "Gloamings," rapidly rise to prominence in all aspects of modern society. Soon people are beginning to be "re-created," willingly accepting the risk of death if their bodies can't handle the transformation. As new communities of Gloamings arise, society is divided, and popular Gloaming sites come under threat from a secret terrorist organization. But when a charismatic and wealthy businessman, recently turned, runs for political office -- well, all hell breaks loose.
Told from the perspective of key players, including a cynical FBI agent, an audacious campaign manager, and a war veteran turned nurse turned secret operative, A People's History of the Vampire Uprising is an exhilarating, genre-bending debut that is as addictive as the power it describes.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY APR 16, 2018
At the start of Villareal's enjoyable if derivative first novel, CDC virologist Lauren Scott travels to Nogales, Ariz., where she visits the city morgue to examine a body "exhibiting unusual hemophilia bruising and intradermal contusions." To her annoyance, the body has apparently been stolen, but another has since arrived at the morgue bearing the identical pattern of bruising. Lauren notices two puncture marks on this new body near the carotid artery. Sure enough, the evidence suggests that vampires who prefer to be known as gloamings have invaded the U.S. Lauren eventually joins Hugo Zumthor, the FBI agent in charge of the Gloaming Crimes Unit, and John Reilly, a Catholic priest, in contending with the gloamings, who are struggling for their political rights. Genre fans may have fun recognizing the influence of such notable predecessors as Charlaine Harris's Southern Vampire series, Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan's The Strain, and Max Brooks's World War Z. That 20th Century Fox and Shawn Levy's 21 Laps have secured film rights bodes well for this solid supernatural thriller.

On Valentine's Day almost two years ago, Amy Krouse Rosenthal finished writing an essay that would eventually be published in the Modern Love column, called "You May Want to Marry My Husband." Just ten days after the piece came out, she died of ovarian cancer. Her essay became one of the most widely read in the history of the column.
This past summer, her husband Jason wrote his own piece in response. On February 13, we will release that episode. But this week, actress Debra Winger reads Amy's original essay, "You May want to Marry My Husband."

After Twenty Years All Study Guides Homework Help Lesson Plans
After Twenty Years
by O. Henry
What is so special about the appointment of two friends in "After Twenty Years"?
The appointment of the two friends in "After Twenty Years" is special in that it fulfills a solemn promise made by the men some two decades before. When Bob headed out West, he and his childhood friend Jimmy vowed that they would meet up again in New York outside Big Joe Brady's restaurant in exactly twenty years to the day. It's impressive that friends who had been apart for so long would honor their commitment.
"What is so special about the appointment of two friends in "After Twenty Years"?" eNotes Editorial, 20 Apr. 2020, https://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-is-so-special-about-the-appointment-of-two-2256133. Accessed 28 Jan. 2023.

That both "Silky" Bob and Jimmy Wells have duly turned up for their appointment as planned says a lot about the deep friendship they once shared. For most people, the idea of meeting up with a friend twenty years from now in the exact same place as the last time meeting is too strange for words. Even close friends can drift apart over such a long time. Few people would demonstrate the same commitment to making such a solemn promise, never mind keeping it.
But Bob and Jimmy are different. Bob may be a serial criminal, but when it comes to his old school buddy he always keeps his promises. As for Jimmy, one gets the impression that he would gladly have turned up for the big meeting even if he hadn't been a cop setting up Bob to be arrested. Whatever line of work he was in, he wouldn't have missed this appointment for anything.
Bob and Jimmy have taken radically different paths in life, but they are still bound by ties of friendship. That explains why Jimmy can't bring himself to arrest his old pal; a detective does it instead. It also explains why we can be so sure that Jimmy would've turned up to his appointment with Bob after all this time, even if he hadn't been a member of New York's finest.

Your moth in fact looks like Depressaria hystricella! But what I don´t know is, if there exist similar species in other families, e.g. Gelechiidae.
Depressaria hystricella in not known from Spain so far, so I would feel better if the determination could be confirmed by looking at the palps from lateral. They are so distinct, that with this additional information D. hystricella can´t be confused: second segment dark brown at lower 2/3, withish at distal 1/3, see attached photo. Maybe you have further photos, where this feature can be seen, excellent photo quality not needed for this.

Q: open_basedir error preventing avatar uploads I'm getting this error when avatars are being uploaded on my site.  I've changed "open_basedir = /home/" to "open_basedir =" in my php.ini on my server.  It's a dedicated server and I rebooted it after making the adjustment.
Warning: is_writable() [function.is-writable]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/source:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/source/public_html/lib/php/tru/directory.php on line 46

Warning: is_writable() [function.is-writable]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/source:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/source/public_html/lib/php/tru/directory.php on line 46

What else can I do to fix this issue?

A: The problem is not with open_basedir, it is in your image upload. Look closely at the error message:
File(/) is not within the allowed path(s):

I bet there is an empty variable where the file name/path should be.

Federal Government Seeks Dismissal of Supermax Suicide Lawsuit
By Jean Casella and James Ridgeway | September 25, 2012
The U.S. government is currently contending with two federal lawsuits that challenge the torturous conditions at the U.S. Penitentiary Administrative Maximum (ADX) in Florence, Colorado. Both suits allege that the social isolation and sensory deprivation at ADX are so extreme that they drive prisoners to madness, self-mutilation, and suicide–yet the Bureau of Prisons offers them next to nothing in the way of mental health treatment.
We've published two previous posts (here and here) tracking Andrew Cohen's excellent, detailed reporting on these lawsuits. Yessterday, Cohen reported on the federal government's latest move, which was to file a motion to dismiss one of the suits. It concerns the death of Jose Martin Vega, who hanged himself in his cell at ADX in May 2010. (Although Vega was unconscious and possibly dead when guards found him, they nonetheless shackled his hands and feet before removing him from his cell, as shown in photos from the Fremont County Coroner's Office.) Vega's family is alleging that "former ADX-Florence warden Blake R. Davis and other Bureau of Prison officials were "deliberately indifferent" to Vega's medical needs, including his mental health needs, which the family says were extensive and obvious."
The complaint alleges, in graphic detail, how Vega lost his mind at Supermax. How he began to mutilate his own body. How he came to believe that the guards were poisoning his food and "violating his bodily integrity." When he complained, as he often did, in writing, prison staff typically told him that the results of his complaints were "not disclosable to" him. Now that he is dead, now that he can no longer testify about what was done to him, here is what the feds say to try to rid themselves of the responsibility of an accounting:
Plaintiff makes no allegation that inmate Vega was in fact suffering from a serious mental illness requiring treatment at the time of his death (or at any time when Mr. Davis was the Warden at the ADX)… There are similarly no facts showing that any treatment was prescribed (or even indicated) for inmate Vega's mental condition. Further, there are no facts alleged showing that, objectively, inmate Vega was at an increased risk of suicide
His prior (unidentified) suicide attempt in 2005 and self-mutilation in 2010 are insufficient to show, objectively, that inmate Vega was diagnosed by a physician with a serious mental illness mandating treatment or was suffering from a condition that was so obvious that even a lay person would easily recommend the necessity for a doctor's attention.
You follow that twisted logic? The prison staff's repeated failure or refusal to treat Vega for his obvious mental illness now is being used as evidence by the government that Vega didn't need to be treated for his obvious mental illness. And since a "lay person"—like a juror, for example—wouldn't have viewed Vega's conduct before his suicide as "mandating treatment" lay people—like jurors—should not be allowed to review the evidence in this case to decide for themselves whether Supermax officials failed to meet their legal obligations to this prisoner.
Cohen's piece needs to be read in full to appreciate the extent of the "twisted logic," Catch-22s, and other tactics to which the federal government has resorted in trying to prove they are not responsible for the well being of a man they locked up in a small concrete box. As Cohen points out, "The aim of these motions are more than just depriving the nation of the truth of the matter. The aim is to protect public servants from ever having to answer publicly for their work." He concludes:
Congress has no interest in reviewing cases like this—they aren't good politics. This summer, I tried to get someone at the Bureau of Prisons to respond to some of the allegations made against it, to explain how prisoners with mental illness are treated inside our federal prisons. Not only did the Bureau refuse to respond to my requests—not so much as a "no comment"—but the elected officials on Capitol Hill who are supposed to provide "oversight" of the Bureau, politicians of both parties, refused even to pass along my request. The truth is no one in power in Washington cares about these prisoners or what is being done to them in our name.
And that leaves the courts. Both Supermax lawsuits now are before U.S. District Judge Richard Matsch, the nails-tough senior-status judge most famous for presiding over the Oklahoma City bombing trials. He has shown repeatedly over the past few decades that he is brave enough to take on the Bureau of Prisons. The question now is, will he? And if he does, will the appellate courts back him up long enough to ensure that someone, somewhere, has to answer for what happened to Jose Martin Vega—and what is happening, today, to other Supermax inmates?

What I can not comprehend or stomach is that other human beings can sit back and glean a paycheck from this if just 1 soul over there would speak up. How can they all turn a blind eye to this? What kind of sick people work there? Do they really think they are helping the world thats the interview I want to see. Nazis!

prison is suppose to punishment not vacation time. u two make it sound like the officers should b responsible for the criminal's issues. the criminal is there due to his own actions.
8Forever on January 9, 2013
@carla I agree prison is the punishment a finite about of time free of abuse and torture. When we get to that it'll be better. after all these are American citizens we ar not supposed to lose our rights when we go to prison.

For the SNES game, see Castlevania: Dracula X.
Castlevania: Rondo of Blood (悪魔城ドラキュラ X 血の輪廻ロンド, Akumajō Dorakula X: Chi no Rinne Rondo?, lit. Demon Castle Dracula X: Rondo of Blood Resurrection) is a Japanese action-platform game developed by Konami for the PC Engine Super CD-ROM² system. The game was directed by Toru Hagihara. The game was released in Japan on October 29, 1993. It was the 10th installment in the Castlevania series, and the X in the title was specifically chosen to be ambiguous with the Roman numeral.
The game was ported to the SNES as Castlevania: Dracula X, and to the PSP as Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles. The latter actually included two games: the first release of the Rondo of Blood with the official English title, as well as an enhanced port of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, its direct sequel. The original version of Rondo of Blood was also released for the Wii's Virtual Console service in Japan in 2008 and worldwide in 2010.
Taking place in 1792, Rondo of Blood is set in the fictional universe of the Castlevania series. The premise of the series is the eternal conflict between the vampire hunters of the Belmont clan and the immortal vampire Dracula.
The protagonist is 19-year-old Richter Belmont (Jin Horikawa), heir to the whip Vampire Killer and Simon Belmont's direct descendant. He comes to the castle after his beloved Annette (Atsuko Honda) is kidnapped by Dracula's servant Shaft. Two times throughout the game, Dracula's trusty lieutenant, Death, attempts to stop Richter before he reaches Dracula. Along the way, Richter may attempt to rescue some other prisoners hidden away in the castle.

Everyone makes mistakes, and they can teach us just as much as our successes.
What is your biggest mistake and what did you learn from it?
Katie Keates (BA Law with French, 2011) is one of many alumni who have shared their mistakes with groups of recent graduates, revealing what they have learned from it and how it shaped their career for the better.
Katie explained why she thought she did the 'wrong' degree, and how she made the leap from law to recruitment.
'Through my work as a team leader at a recruitment agency, Katie Bard, I often meet recent graduates who might be worried if they want to do something different to what they studied.' After Katie graduated, she went into law and worked as a Barrister's Clark for Number 5 Barristers Chambers. It was in that role that she discovered what she truly wanted in a job, helping her decide to pursue a different career path.
'I spent a lot of time thinking I had to do law; my advice would be to just be open to all opportunities that are available to you and remember there is no 'wrong' degree. A graduate may believe that they have locked themselves into a particular career path, but my work with employers proves that it is often the transferable skills that companies prize most highly.
'My biggest mistake' is part of a series of events designed for recent graduates, where alumni sum up their experiences in just four minutes, then offer advice. If you would like to attend, to share your advice, or have any ideas for future events, please get in touch by emailing alumnicommunications@contacts.bham.ac.uk.


Are you sitting comfortably? Good, then we'll begin.
In today's lesson we'll be discussing a wondrous book from the fine folks at Answers in Genesis. It's Dragons: Legends & Lore of Dinosaurs, by Bodie Hodge, son-in-law of Ken Ham, and Laura Welch, with illustrations by Bill Looney, published by Master Books in the year of our Lord, 2011. Actually, now that I look more closely, I see that it wasn't written by Hodge and Welch. Indeed, it wasn't written at all. Rather, it was "compiled and edited" by Hodge and Welch. Was it divinely inspired? Divinely regurgitated? Just plain regurgitated from Answers in Genesis? It certainly wasn't intelligently designed.
Actually, that's a bit unfair: the illustrations are impressive, and there are many foldouts, little booklets and envelopes and Advent calendar-like windows to open. It looks like a fun kids' book, like Dragonology: The Complete Book of Dragons or The Dinosaur Museum: An Unforgettable, Interactive Virtual Tour through Dinosaur History. The only minor problem with Dragons: Legends and Lore of Dinosaurs is its content.
Here is the basic argument, as I understand it: many cultures have dragon stories; therefore, there must be some truth in these stories. Many depictions and descriptions of dragons more or less resemble various dinosaurs. Sort of. Except for the bits that don't really fit, but those can be dismissed. Thus, evolution is wrong.
It's outrageous that impressionable children should be exposed to such drivel. The appalling grammar could have a devastating effect on them.
Oh, the science is kind of weak, too. And the history. And the authors' grasp on mythology, folklore, theology, logic and literature is pretty shaky. But, my God, the grammar! I mean, how hard is it to write coherent, grammatically correct sentences in a 24-page picture book (and page 1 is the publication/copyright page)? If I were to share every inelegant sentence, I'd have to re-type the whole book, and that would be a violation of copyright. Also, I suspect my brain would try to escape. So, I'll only be able to give you a brief sampling.
Another challenge are to make your subject and verb agree. But, as they say, it is always very important to go back to "original translations." And what will you find in these works?
Dear Mr. Hodge and Ms. Welch: It is not necessary to dangle every participle. Yours very sincerely, The English language.
That sentence is so pain-inducing, I don't even know what to say about it. But never mind, to illustrate their point, the authors include pictures from "a couple of authentic Peruvian replicas." Just in case you thought "original translations" was an anomaly, they offer up "authentic replicas." In YEC world, up is down, translations are originals, replicas are authentic, and science works to obscure truth.
Austrian! AUSTRIAN! And no, in case you're wondering, German is not mentioned.
This is actually a very interesting and fun to read book. despite the biased opinions of those who cling desperatley to their faith in evolution this book was not written by "nuts" but rather studied professors and scientists who have spent years reaserching the topic. I found the book was interesting however not for my younger son of two years but my older son of 4 found it fasinating. And it will not lead to an incorrect conception of science but a more wide view of human history and maybe even a greater imagination. This is a fantastic book. I highly recomend it. It even surprised me how big it was. I was expecting something a bit smaller but it turned out to be a much bigger book with very big nicely drawn pictures.
I don't know where the author got the idea that Hodge and Welch are "studied professors and scientists," but I can understand why he or she was impressed with the quality of the book's writing.

Qantas Announces Greater Access To China
Published on 3rd April 2013
Qantas today announced a significant expansion of its codeshare agreement with China Eastern Airlines, giving its customers better access to major cities in China and meeting strong demand from the business market.
From 1 May 2013, Qantas will codeshare on China Eastern's daily Melbourne-Shanghai services as well as its Sydney-Nanjing-Beijing services, which operate three times per week. Qantas will also begin codesharing on China Eastern's domestic Shanghai-Nanjing flights.
The expanded codeshare arrangements mean Qantas customers can choose from 17 direct Qantas or China Eastern services between Australia and mainland China each week – with onward connections via Shanghai to 11 domestic destinations. Qantas also has codeshare services on China Eastern flights between Singapore and Shanghai, with connections to Qantas flights operating from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth.
There are no changes to Qantas' existing daily Sydney-Shanghai service.
Qantas International, Manager China, Andrew Hogg said the additional codeshare services were part of the broader strategy announced in February 2013 to strengthen the airline's presence in Asia.
"We are building on our strong relationship with China Eastern to support growing corporate travel and tourism between Australia and China," Mr Hogg said.
"The new codeshare arrangements provide Qantas customers with a daily, non-stop connection from Melbourne to the global business hub of Shanghai, alongside Qantas' established Sydney-Shanghai flights.
"Qantas customers can also book flights operated by China Eastern from Sydney to Nanjing, China's second-largest commercial centre, and onwards to Beijing.
"China Eastern and Qantas have worked together since our first codeshare agreement in 2008 and more recently on our Jetstar Hong Kong joint venture. We are very pleased to be strengthening this partnership further with today's announcement.
"In February we announced more seats and an improved schedule for Qantas flights to Singapore and Hong Kong, the first phase of our strategy to be the first choice for travel between Australia and Asia.
"We said we would expand Qantas' Asian network through our airline partnerships and we're now delivering on that promise. Qantas International offers 130 flights to Asia every week, with direct flights to 10 cities (11 with the addition of Nanjing to the network), and fares available with partner airlines to over 120 more cities in Asia.
"We're investing in the customer experience, with new lounges in Singapore and Hong Kong to open later this year and an A330 reconfiguration program to commence in late 2014," added Mr Hogg.
Qantas customers can book the new China Eastern codeshare services from today for travel from 1 May 2013, through qantas.com or travel agents.* Qantas Frequent Flyers can earn and redeem points on all eligible flights throughout the China Eastern network.
*Subject to regulatory approval.

A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice One of Literary Hub's most anticipated books of 2021
Award-winning master critic Robert Gottlieb takes a singular and multifaceted look at the life of silver screen legend Greta Garbo, and the culture that worshiped her.
"Wherever you look in the period between 1925 and 1941," Robert Gottlieb writes in Garbo, "Greta Garbo is in people's minds, hearts, and dreams." Strikingly glamorous and famously inscrutable, she managed, in sixteen short years, to infiltrate the world's subconscious; the end of her film career, when she was thirty-six, only made her more irresistible. Garbo appeared in just twenty-four Hollywood movies, yet her impact on the world--and that indescribable, transcendent presence she possessed--was rivaled only by Marilyn Monroe's. She was looked on as a unique phenomenon, a sphinx, a myth, the most beautiful woman in the world, but in reality she was a Swedish peasant girl, uneducated, naïve, and always on her guard. When she arrived in Hollywood, aged nineteen, she spoke barely a word of English and was completely unprepared for the ferocious publicity that quickly adhered to her as, almost overnight, she became the world's most famous actress.
In Garbo, the acclaimed critic and editor Robert Gottlieb offers a vivid and thorough retelling of her life, beginning in the slums of Stockholm and proceeding through her years of struggling to elude the attention of the world--her desperate, futile striving to be "left alone." He takes us through the films themselves, from M-G-M's early presentation of her as a "vamp"--her overwhelming beauty drawing men to their doom, a formula she loathed--to the artistic heights of Camille and Ninotchka ("Garbo Laughs!"), by way of Anna Christie ("Garbo Talks!"), Mata Hari, and Grand Hotel. He examines her passive withdrawal from the movies, and the endless attempts to draw her back. And he sketches the life she led as a very wealthy woman in New York--"a hermit about town"--and the life she led in Europe among the Rothschilds and men like Onassis and Churchill. Her relationships with her famous co-star John Gilbert, with Cecil Beaton, with Leopold Stokowski, with Erich Maria Remarque, with George Schlee--were they consummated? Was she bisexual? Was she sexual at all? The whole world wanted to know--and still wants to know.
In addition to offering his rich account of her life, Gottlieb, in what he calls "A Garbo Reader," brings together a remarkable assembly of glimpses of Garbo from other people's memoirs and interviews, ranging from Ingmar Bergman and Tallulah Bankhead to Roland Barthes; from literature (she turns up everywhere--in Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls, in Evelyn Waugh, Graham Greene, and the letters of Marianne Moore and Alice B. Toklas); from countless songs and cartoons and articles of merchandise. Most extraordinary of all are the pictures--250 or so ravishing movie stills, formal portraits, and revealing snapshots--all reproduced here in superb duotone. She had no personal vanity, no interest in clothes and make-up, yet the story of Garbo is essentially the story of a face and the camera. Forty years after her career ended, she was still being tormented by unrelenting paparazzi wherever she went.

In terms of Erasmus+ program, last month from 12th until 18th June in Podgorica, Montenegro was held a training course in which Oliver Andreevski and Andrej Naumovski took part as representatives of Volunteer Center Skopje. The sessions held on the training course tackled the challenges that occur to people who are in relationships (friendly, intimate etc.) facing different forms of abuse. Later on we discussed forms of abuse, how to recognize the abuse from outside, how to react to recognized abuse as an outsider and how to prevent it.
On the training course participated two youth workers from Ireland, Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia, Estonia, Greece and Albania, and each one of them shared their insight on the topic. The sessions were fruitful, everyone shared their stands and thoughts, as well as statistics and researches from the partner countries involved in the project. During the project, we discussed the upcoming youth exchanges which will be implemented in Limerick, Ireland. On these exchanges the accent will be put on the topic of abuse in social media and young people will be the target group. In terms of the youth exchanges, an attempt will be made to raise awareness between young people about the risk of sharing private and intimate information in written or visual form, and how can they be misused on the internet, especially on the social media. The final result is estimated to create an effective tool for non-formal education for young people about the abuse in social media and internet in general.
Apart from the topic of the project, the youth exchanges were widely discussed on the training course. We tackled draft agenda and obligations of youth workers and organisations – partners that follow afterwards, we also went through presentation on organizations and their contribution to the project as a topic of the first session.

Are you finding it difficult to accept the values of today's society?
Fees and Hours

What you can expect during your treatment.
What Hypnotherapy is – and isn't.
Learn to reframe and embrace situations with Hypnotherapy
Did you play the game of Happy Families as a child? While seeking to complete the Badger family, were you fooled into thinking that a Happy Family invariably consisted of Mr, Mrs, Grandma, Grandpa, and two children?
It could be complicated if we tried to play the game based upon 21st century families, with step parents, half-brothers, step sisters, civil partners and others in the mix.
That is often the basis of massive anxiety, particularly amongst people raised in the 40s and 50s, the baby-boomers. Many of my older clients have sleepless nights fretting about a son or daughter's marriage, finances or choice of partner. Others worry that grandchildren lack stability – weekends with Dad and his new girlfriend, weekdays with Mum who is struggling or whatever the arrangements are.
Baby-boomer grandparents grew up in an age when families generally stayed together, but did it always mean domestic bliss? Some were lucky but many simply endured their lot. Alcoholism and abuse were not unusual but were hushed up. The perceived shame of divorce was enough to keep unhappy families trapped under the same roof and step parents lived mainly within the pages of fairy stories.
Now, in later years, are you finding it difficult to accept the values of today's society? It could be argued that it is better for couples to make changes if they are unhappy. It may be hard initially for children to adapt but they will cope if parents act with maturity, do not bad-mouth each other or use the children as bargaining pawns. Many of their school friends have overcome upheavals. Youngsters have more resilience than we think. With sensitive handling, they can survive relatively unscathed.
Then there are the heart-breaking rifts between loved ones, in-laws, estranged siblings, rejection when a family member has 'come out' as gay, distress when half the family moves abroad, the list goes on.
Hypnotherapy really can help with the fall-out from family conflict as you learn to reframe and embrace situations. You can build up your own confidence so that your happiness is no longer determined by anyone else's behaviour or actions.
Hypnotherapy is a talking therapy using the best of CBT and NLP, with hypnosis at the end of the session.

This Heated Stadium Seat Will Keep You Warm at Every Sports Game This Season
Rice Tire Interest, Rice Tire Run Down 0
While some people love fall for the sweaters and pumpkin spice-flavored foods, others have their sights set on the sports that come back. Whether your NFL team is one of the lucky ones to be welcoming fans, or you're gearing up for many weekends spent at your kid's football game, The Hot Seat from POP will make the experience even better.
After receiving over $20,000 worth of backers on Kickstarter last year, The Hot Seat is now available for purchase. The heated stadium seat has a high-density foam cushion and backing, so no more hunching. It's as roomy as a first-class airplane seat, according to the brand, and has padded armrests that you can fold down to make the seat 20 inches wide, for even more room. There are also six reclining positions for the ultimate comfort. This chair looks like it beats those cold, hard bleacher seats, right?
The Hot Seat uses adjustable USB-powered heating technology to give you three different heat levels. All you have to do is push a button and your seat can get up to 115 degrees Fahrenheit. It's important to note that the seat does not come with a USB battery — however, POP says that it works with any and will last for hours.
As if keeping your booty warm wasn't reason enough to give the heated stadium seat a try, it'll also keep all your snacks and belongings organized and in arm's reach. It has one oversized pocket, three smaller pockets, and a cup holder.
The Hot Seat, which has a waterproof bottom and made with water-resistant material, is available on Amazon Prime for about a 100 bucks with free shipping. People have commented on how much they enjoy using it at their kids' and grandkids' outdoor soccer games. Plus, it comes with backpack straps for easy carrying.
With your coffee, snacks, and, now, the heated stadium chair, you'll have everything you need to stay warm through those outdoor activities. Bring it on, fall.

"Satisfying Stay at The Orchard"
It was a good stay for a couple of days. The location is accessible and there was a nearby mall to go to. The only problem we had with the hotel is their housekeeping staff. If no one answers their call, they would forcibly open the door. That's not nice. I also got a call from their staff the next day verifying if we were only given once key card and if I surrendered it upon check it. They could have checked it on their records or with their colleagues as I find it a bit of a hassle, Apart from those, everything else was okay.
This is the first time we stayed at this hotel. My kids loved it. Room was big and clean. Staff were so accommodating.
"My 4th Time at Orchard Cebu Hotel and Suites"
It's actually my fourth time to check in at Orchard Cebu Hotel and Suites because of its accessible location. It's only about 100 meters from J Centre Mall. Aside from location, I also like the spacious rooms in this hotel and the breakfast buffet. The Cons: Elevator is a bit smelly, TV is small, wifi is quite slow.

The Sulphur-crested Cockatoo, Cacatua galerita, is a relatively large white cockatoo found in wooded habitats in Australia and New Guinea. They can be locally very numerous, leading to them sometimes being considered pests. They are well known in aviculture, although they can be demanding pets.
In Australia, Sulphur-crested Cockatoos can be found widely in the north and east, ranging as far south as Tasmania, but avoiding arid inland areas with few trees. They are numerous in suburban habitats in cities such as Adelaide, Canberra, Sydney and Brisbane. Except for highland areas, they occur throughout most of New Guinea and on nearby smaller islands such as Waigeo, Misool and Aru, and various islands in the Cenderawasih Bay and Milne Bay.
It has a total length of 45–55 cm (18–22 in), with the Australian subspecies larger than subspecies from New Guinea and nearby islands. The plumage is overall white, while the underwing and -tail are tinged yellow. The expressive crest is yellow. The bill is black, the legs are grey, and the eye-ring is whitish. Males typically have almost black eyes, whereas the females have a more red or brown eye, but this require optimum viewing conditions to be seen. The differences between the subspecies are subtle. C. g. fitzroyi is similar to the nominate race but lacks the yellow on the ear tufts and slightly blueish skin around the eye. C. g. eleonora is similar to C. g. fitzroyi but is smaller and has broader feathers in the crest, and C. g. triton is similar to C. g. eleonora except it has a smaller bill.[1] In captivity, the Sulphur-crested Cockatoo is easily confused with the smaller Yellow-crested Cockatoo or the Blue-eyed Cockatoo with a differently shaped crest and a darker blue eye-ring.
Their distinctive raucous call can be very loud; it is adapted to travel through the forest environments in which they live, including tropical and subtropical rainforests. These birds are naturally curious, as well as very intelligent. They have adapted very well to European settlement in Australia and live in many urban areas.
These birds are very long-lived, and can live upwards of 70 years in captivity,[citation needed]although they only live to about 20–40 years in the wild. They have been known to engage in geophagy, the process of eating clay to detoxify their food. These birds produce a very fine powder to waterproof themselves instead of oil as many other creatures do.
Sulphur-crested Cockatoos may no longer be imported into the United States as a result of the Wild Bird Conservation Act. However, they have been bred in captivity. They are demanding pets, being very loud and having a natural desire to chew wood and other hard and organic materials.
(From Wikipedia, 30 June 2011)
Noisy and conspicuous, the sulphur-crested cockatoo forms large flocks of up to several hundred birds. As the famous naturalist Charles Darwin observed during his visit to Australia, these flocks are commonly found feeding in wheat fields, and are considered to be pests by many Australian wheat farmers. During feeding some members of the flock stand guard on a nearby perch, alerting the rest of the group to any danger by making a raucous alarm call. When not feeding, the sulphur-crested cockatoo will frequently bite off smaller branches and leaves, which helps prevent the bill from growing too large. A similar behaviour is also employed by this species in urban environment, causing widespread damage to wooden panelling and timber decking. Flocks spend the night at a permanent roosting site, usually in trees, but may travel over several kilometres during the day in search of food. The sulphur-crested cockatoo's breeding season varies according to location, with populations in southern Australia breeding between August and January, and populations in northern Australia breeding from May to September. Once formed, each breeding pair constructs a nest well apart from the other pairs, which usually comprises a bed of woodchips in a tree hollow. A clutch of two to three eggs is laid, which are incubated by both parent birds, with hatching taking place after 25 to 27 days. Nestlings remain in the hollow for 9 to 12 weeks and are fed by both adults, before fledging and joining a feeding flock.
Sulphur-crested cockatoos are primarily granivores in the wild, feeding both on the ground and in trees. They feed mainly on seeds, nuts, fruits, blossoms, insects and insect larvae. They will also attack newly planted and ripening grain crops. (Berra, 1998; Dobbs and Highfill, 2003; Perrins, 1990)
In captivity, C. galerita are mainly fed a diet of fresh fruits, vegetables, seeds, nuts, pellets, legumes and grains. They have a high rate of obesity so high fat foods such as peanuts and seeds are fed sparingly. (Berra, 1998; Dobbs and Highfill, 2003; Perrins, 1990)
