The famous speech of Slobodan Milošević, which took place at Kosovo on June 28th 1989, was performed in front of the thousands of people. The National television was streaming it. This event, as known as "happening of the people", is embodied in the image and the speech of Milošević. History regards it as a presage of the collapse of Yugoslavia and the bloodshed of the Yugoslav Wars.

This Psalm sets forth the life-giving power of a right understanding of the real nature of Truth. It is the man who does not understand who perishes as an animal (verse 20). For want of understanding Truth they centre themselves on earthly possessions and so miss laying hold of the life that is life indeed. The veiled character of the Psalms is fully stated in verses 3 and 4 (Absorption and Radiation). God Himself is our Redeemer (verse 15).
3 Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence:a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.

UPDATE: Downey Family Release Statement Regarding Indio's Arrest
By ETOnline.com. Published: 30 Jun 2014 11:18 AM
UPDATE: The Downey family has released a statement regarding Indio's arrest.
"Unfortunately there's a genetic component to addiction and Indio has likely inherited it. Also, there is a lot of family support and understanding, and we're all determined to rally behind him and help him become the man he's capable of being. We're grateful to the Sheriff's department for their intervention, and believe Indio can be another recovery success story instead of a cautionary tale."
Robert Downey Jr.'s son Indio Downey was arrested in West Hollywood, Calif. on Sunday afternoon for cocaine possession, ET confirmed with the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department.
The 20-year-old's arrest occurred after a traffic stop and investigation near the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and La Cienega. The Iron Man actor's son was a passenger in the car.
Indio posted bail, which amounted to $10,000, and was released just after 12:30 a.m. on Monday morning.
His famous 49-year-old father has struggled with drug addiction in the past and has even ended up in prison for his substance abuse.

Fotowatio Renewable Ventures' (FRV) 70MWp Moree solar farm in Australia has reached financial close.
Scheduled to commence construction immediately, the project is expected to produce enough electricity to power the equivalent of nearly 15,000 New South Wales homes while decreasing nearly 95,000t of carbon pollution each year.
FRV Australian country manager Andrea Fontana said: "This is a significant and exciting moment for large scale solar in Australia and for the Moree community.
"The project would not be possible without the unwavering support of the local community, Moree Plains Shire Council, the Federal Members for Parkes, NSW state government, all the people who have dedicated many hours to development of the project and last but not least, the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) and the Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC) who have provided funding for the project.
"The Moree Solar Farm is an opportunity to positively contribute to the country's power industry by leading the way for large scale projects and creating local jobs," added Fontana.
Renewable Energy Target (RET), which intends to have at least 20% of Australia's energy demand to be met by renewable energy, also helped the project.
Mechanical devices (trackers) will be used by Moree to continually orient its solar panels with the sun to increase their power output every day.


I pass by this house every day going to work, and I always noticed it and always sort of thought to myself, "Huh. There's a red caboose in their backyard. That's mildly interesting." Until one day the full import of what I was seeing finally hit me, and I practically slammed on the brakes as I passed and I thought, "Dang. These people actually have a real live red caboose in their backyard!" I mean, this is the real thing — exactly what you might see on real live railroad tracks. But it's just sort of sitting there in these folks' backyard. And I immediately want to know: Why? And, how? And, of course, where can I get one, too? Because I know I would be the Best Grandma Ever in the Whole Wide World if I could score one of these.

Big new San Jose office building is in the…
Big new San Jose office building is in the works near the airport
More than 1,000 people could potentially be employed in the proposed offices

PUBLISHED: February 2, 2022 at 12:37 p.m. | UPDATED: February 3, 2022 at 8:01 a.m.
SAN JOSE — A big new office building is in the works in north San Jose near the airport, a project that if built, could accommodate well over 1,000 workers.
The building could become the newest addition to the Coleman Highline complex, a mixed-use tech campus that has become one of the most successful and valuable projects in Silicon Valley.
The new office structure would consist of an office building totaling 290,000 square feet, according to documents filed with the San Jose Planning Department.
A burst of potential leasing interest on the part of big tenants, including major tech industry players, prompted the primary developers of Coleman Highline, Cupertino-based real estate company Hunter Storm, to push ahead with the new building.
Coleman Highline office building at 1179 and 1185 Coleman Ave. in north San Jose, concept.
"We are seeing a lot of activity in the market," said Curtis Leigh, a principal executive with Cupertino-based Hunter Storm. "So we decided to proceed with this building."
The proposed site for the office building is 1185 Coleman Ave. in San Jose, the city documents show.
The office building would sprout just west of the city's international airport on a 4.5-acre site, according to the planning files.
"We plan to begin construction on the building this summer," Leigh said.
Depending on space protocols, the building's 290,000 square feet could accommodate 1,100 to 1,500 workers.

Considerable amenities are being planned for the new building, according to the project proposal.
"The project will feature ample at-grade courtyard space along with a 'highline' connecting the building to a garage," the city documents state.
Coleman Highline, property experts say, has become a big success, attracting tenants that have occupied big chunks of office space as well as investors that have bought several of the existing office buildings.
Roku, a streaming titan, is a tenant in several buildings in Coleman Highline. Roku has leased about 800,000 square feet. Roku has moved some employees into the space it leased, according to Leigh.
Yahoo, through a deal struck by its former owner Verizon, is a tenant in multiple buildings that total roughly 658,000 square feet. Verizon is attempting to sublease some of that space, although Yahoo has begun to move some employees into the building.
"The proposed development makes sense given the staggering transaction amounts" for the buildings the company has sold at Coleman Highline so far, said Bob Staedler, principal executive with Silicon Valley Synergy, a land-use consultancy. "Hunter Storm has a successful track record and they should continue building at their own pace."
The fully leased status of Coleman Highline has attracted major real estate investors.
In 2020, New York City-based Blackstone Real Estate Advisors, through an affiliate, paid $275 million for two office buildings and an amenities building in Coleman Highline. Roku leases all three buildings.

In December 2021, London-based AGC Equity Partners paid a jaw-dropping $780 million for three office buildings that are slated to be a big employment hub for Yahoo.
The unexpected continuing strength of the office leasing market in Silicon Valley and ongoing plans by tech companies to expand amid coronavirus-linked economic uncertainties have helped to spur plans for the next expansion of Coleman Highline.
"The market is still strong even with the pandemic, which has been something of a surprise," Leigh said. "We are going to keep going with the development plans as long as the market keeps going."

Surinam Airways is the flag carrier of Suriname and is wholly owned by the Goverment of Suriname.
Surinam Airways flies to many destinations including Aruba, Belem, Willemstad, Cayenne, Georgetown, Amsterdam, Paramaribo, Port of Spain and Miami. Surinam Airways has its hub airport at Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport in Suriname.
Surinam Airways offer Economy and Business Class service with dedicated check-in counters at the airport, Surinam Airways executive Business Class lounge and priority booking and baggage retrieval upon arrival at your destination.
The airline was established in 1953 to link small towns, and now operates regional and long-haul scheduled passenger services. Some of the popular destinations covered by the airline include Amsterdam, Oranjestad, Port of Spain, Miami, Belem, Georgetown and Paramaribo. Surinam Airways currently seeks cooperation agreement with Turkish Airlines.
Surinam Airways ordered two Boeing 737-300 aircraft from AWAS to replace the McDonnell Douglas MD-82 in 2009. In November the same year, Surinam Airways retired the Boeing 747-300 from service.
The aircraft had been bought from KLM in 2004. It was replaced by the end of 2009 with a 317-seater Airbus A340 that previously belonged to Air France.
Surinam Airways offers an in-flight magazine named Sabaku.
Travel on the Mid-Atlantic flights (between Paramaribo and Amsterdam) with Surinam airways the following is applicable.
Business Class - 2 pieces with each a maximum weight of 30 kg.
Suriname Airways which put into service last December a 737-800 aircraft to service its Guyana route from Miami to accommodate the holiday demand, is keeping that aircraft on the route until the end of the Easter holidays.
Suriname Airways General Manager, North America, Henk Fitz-Jim announced Thursday that the airline will maintain the 737-800 aircraft on the Guyana service so as to accommodate the demand for travel for a number of events and activities scheduled for the first quarter of 2018. The 737-800 aircraft provides for 60 additional seats per flight compared to the 737-300.
He identified an international oil and gas conference, the country's Mashramani celebrations and the Easter Holidays among the events for which there is an upsurge in the demand for travel to Guyana. "We have seen an increase in the demand for travel to Guyana during this period and will keep the 736-800 in operation so as to efficiently accommodate this demand.
"We are also aware that with Carnival being held in Trinidad and Tobago in February the availability of seats on other air carriers that serve Guyana via Trinidad becomes somewhat of a challenge. So with 60 additional seats three times per week Suriname Airways is well positioned to ensure the Guyana market is adequately served at this important period for the country," Fitz-Jim said.
Suriname Airways currently flies from Miami to Guyana non-stop on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Flights currently leave Guyana at 11 a.m. and arrive Miami at 3.30 p.m. (Miami time) then depart Miami at 5.00 p.m. arriving in Guyana at 10.30 p.m. (Guyana time).
Fitz-Jim disclosed that the airline, as part of its network planning for 2018 is looking into offering flights from New York to Guyana as well as adding an additional flight out of Miami to make a total of four non-stop flights weekly.
Fitz-Jim pointed out that the airline's convenient departure time from Miami allows for passengers from other parts of the United States to connect with Suriname Airways without the need to overnight in Miami.
"We have also kept our fares competitive and affordable so that passengers that are connecting from other cities should not find the cost of travel a burden to their budgets," he said. The airline also allows one free checked baggage as well as carry on hand luggage.
Surinam Airways announced the introduction of a third flight weekly to Georgetown, Guyana beginning May 12. The third flight will be on Thursday of each week, adding to the airline's Tuesday and Saturday service which leaves Guyana at 11.30 a.m. arrives Miami at 4.00p.m. and leaves for Guyana at 5.30 p.m. arriving at 10.00 p.m. Surinam Airways will use its Boeing 737 300 series aircraft for this service offering 118 economy and eight (8) business class seats. The airline permits passengers one free piece of checked baggage not exceeding 50 pounds and charges $15 for a second piece of luggage.
Surinam Airways leases its three B737s from AWAS and uses them on regular flights to Aruba, Belém, Cayenne, Curacao, Georgetown Cheddi Jagan, Miami Int'l, and Port of Spain.
In 2004, Surinam Airways was bought from KLM and they provided a 317-seater Airbus A340 that previously belonged to Air France. Aside from transatlantic services, Surinam Airways also serves Aruba, Belém, Cayenne, Curacao, Georgetown Cheddi Jagan, Miami Int'l, Orlando Sanford, and Port of Spain using a trio of B737-300s.
Surinam Airways announced that it is expanding its destinations in Florida with two weekly flights to Orlando's second International Airport, SFB. In addition to Orlando, Surinam Airways will continue with their popular flights to Miami, alternating the flying days creating more favorable accessibility to Florida. With this move, Surinam Airways will be operating 4 Nonstop flights to Florida per week as well as 4 Nonstop flights to Paramaribo, increasing the airlift to and from Aruba which is beneficial to both the tourism sector as well as the local market.
Surinam Airways announced it was had almost finalised the decision on the fleet renewal replacing the Boeing 737-300s with the Embraer E-Series. On the mid-Atlantic route, the Dreamliner 787 or the Boeing 777 will replace the existing Airbus 340. The alternative plan is to upgrade to the Boeing 737-700. The airline upgrade to more modern aircraft would improve its product and allow for future expansion. The newer Boeing 737-800 or Airbus 321 with a range to NYC and Toronto, which would give SLM the opportunity to expand its network to those cities at any time.
Johan Adolf Pengel International Aiport is the largest of the airports in Surianme and is the hub airport for Suriname Airways. The airport has one runaway. Other airlines which fly to and from this airport include Fly All Ways, Caribbean Airlines, Gol Airlines (previously VRG), Insel Air, Insel Air Aruba, KLM and Surinam Airways.


The ancient town Hoi An lies on the banks of the Thu Bon River. Hoi An was one of the major trading centers of Southeast Asia in the 16th century.
In 1999, the riverside town was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in an effort to preserve its core of historic architecture, a unique mix of Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, and European styles. The listing gave Hoi An the resources and impetus to better protect and maintain its wonderful architecture, and to market itself as a tourist destination. It worked, and the town now attracts visitors by the droves.
When at this charming town, it's quite convenient for visitors to walk around the Old Streets exploring the ancient merchant houses, pagoda... or cycling to the UNESCO site of My Son Sanctuary which is 40km away. Traditional villages near Hoian are worth a visit like Tra Que Vegetable Village, Thanh Ha Pottery Village, Kim Bong Carpentry Village... Further to the East Sea, Cham Island where camping, swimming and scuba diving are available.

FDA vape restrictions
By Annie Myers, Anika Roy and Anna Owsley
Food and Drug Administration-issued restrictions on e-cigarette companies elicits mixed reactions
The FDA is attempting to eliminate vaporizer advertisements targeted to youth to reduce prevalence of vaping
Elizabeth Joseph, Hannah Chern, and Tanner Smith
As you walk into the bathroom, you're suddenly hit with the scent of mango. You draw back before realizing that the smell is coming from a stall, and someone is vaping in the middle of the period. It's an all-too-familiar situation in schools across the nation, leading the Food and Drug Administration to take steps to stop the rise in vaping.
So, just how common is underage vaping? In a survey of 281 students, 43 percent said they have used a vape like one described above, while 22 percent said they have used one in school, whether it's in the bathroom, in class, at the games or in the halls.
Because the FDA believes the marketing of vape has increased its popularity among youth, it has restricted the sale of flavored products at retail locations. The FDA has also banned any and all vape advertising targeted towards youth. In response, JUUL will be pulling flavored pods from stores and is limiting their online presence.
In a press release from Wednesday, Sept. 12, FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb identified vaping as "nothing short of an epidemic" due to the nicotine content and prevalence among youth.
"The FDA won't tolerate a whole generation of young people becoming addicted to nicotine as a tradeoff for enabling adults to have unfettered access," Gottlieb said.
While 66 percent of students said they also believed the marketing of such products is targeted towards teenagers, the FDA's actions and the rise in underage vaping have elicited mixed reactions from students, faculty and the community.
Hunter Ristau
Students and community attribute popularity of vapes to different aspects of marketing
The usage of vape products has increased by 780 percent from 2011, according to the Truth Initiative. Nathan Wells, owner of Vapor Generation LLC, attributes the rise to vapes to adults using them as a replacement for smoking, as opposed to youth dependence.
"The main attraction to vaping has been how well it replicates smoking. It satisfies oral fixation as well as nicotine cravings … two of the main reasons of why people smoke," Wells said via email. "It has more potential to switch former smokers to a less harmful alternative than anything else on the market."
So, despite the FDA's action, Wells believes his business will remain largely unaffected.
"Contrary to popular opinion, [the FDA's restrictions] wouldn't have a large impact," Wells said. "I do agree that there should be some sort of restriction on how the product is portrayed. [Manufacturers should] present the product in a professional manner in order to portray an adult oriented product, which most producers already do."
However, according to one sophomore female, who requested anonymity because she is under the age of 18 and has vaped in school, the design of the devices is meant to target teenagers specifically.
"Juuls and [other e-cigarettes] are so easy to hide and the only people who need to be hiding them are people who [can't use them legally]," the female said. "I think the easiness of them to be hidden is targeted towards teens and the fruity tastes of pods is targeted towards teens too."
As for the methods of advertising, Kerry Benson, Strategic Communications chair at the William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications at the University of Kansas, agrees that e-cigarettes and vape products have shifted towards targeting teenagers through social media.
"[Vapes are] easy to hide, less intrusive in any setting and [they have] a modern vibe — even the vapor is 'cooler' than traditional smoke. In 2017, Juul began what I would call an aggressive social media campaign to promote its easy-to-hide e-cigarette," Benson said via email. "It promoted sweet flavors, which are not as popular among older users, which seemed designed to hit teens. I think it's a play for teens because your grandma probably isn't as heavy a user of social media as most teens and she probably isn't looking for snickerdoodle taste in a vape. It ain't g-ma hittin' Instagram and Snapchat several times a day."
Though the marketing techniques play a role in the prevalence of vapes, the anonymous sophomore female believes that it is more common due to the current popularity of the product, with teenagers just wanting to follow the trend.
"[Students] buy one because they see other kids have it or they will hit someone else's and then they are like 'oh, I really like this, I want one for myself so I can do it whenever I want' and they go and buy one," the female said.
On the other hand, Wells believes the demand for vape in itself is what increased its popularity, even if he is for some marketing restrictions.
"The vaping market has had to use very little marketing to grow the industry to what it is today. The main reason is that these are products that smokers will seek out in a never-ending quest to quit," Wells said. "Anyone, like myself, who has been unable to quit with traditional methods, is willing to give vaping a try. I am in favor of sensible regulations on social media such as flagging content for adults only."
Ultimately, Benson foresees the FDA's warnings will lead to advertisements shifting from overt to more restrained.
"Probably [as] much as [the] traditional promotion of old-school cigarettes shifted from blatant to more subtle, including different word choices in the ads," Benson said. "It will shift with the language teens are already using as code for vaping. Teens will show marketers the path. All marketers need to do is pay attention to subtle cultural shifts."
Community attributes popularity of vape to different sources
While marketing may play a role in the start to the popularity of vapes, the reasons as to why it is still so prevalent is disputed.
From principal Tobie Waldeck's perspective, the products are so common because they are especially accessible to teenagers, even though they are illegal for minors.
"I think [the causes are] access, availability and the ease of doing it. To me, it's a national problem," Waldeck said. "I was at another high school somewhere, which I will not name. I got out of my truck, looked down, vape, right there. It's everywhere … So, I think availability is a part of it. Kids are doing it younger and younger, and it's an issue."
For one senior male, who is anonymous because he is under 18, vaping is a way to unwind.
"It helps me feel more relaxed," he said. "I've felt that I've been a more likeable person since I've started doing it. It makes me act just more relaxed, more mellow. It's another constant, and if things are changing around you, a thing that stays constant can be helpful."
[Vaping] helps me feel more relaxed. I've felt that I've been a more likeable person since I've started doing it."

However, for the sophomore female, vaping isn't a choice anymore.
"I'm addicted and it sucks. I feel like everyone at Mill Valley knows that Juuling is bad, I've heard a lot of people say they are going to quit. But, once you start to quit … you feel the need for the nicotine more," the female said. "One time, I started crying because my ex-boyfriend wouldn't let me hit his Juul … and some people get really pissed off if they don't have the nicotine."
She isn't alone: 10 percent of students out of the 281 surveyed have said they were addicted to vaping. According to the sophomore female, the effects of the nicotine content have hugely impacted how often she vapes.
"It just feels like you have a need to hit it, like all of the time. It's uncontrollable and it's like [it's] taking over your brain," she said. "It's like a really bad craving. I couldn't focus in English [one time] because the kid who sits across from me wouldn't let me hit his. It was awful."
I'm addicted [to vaping] and it sucks."
— Anonymous sophomore female
For school resource officer Mo Loridon, a belief that vapes are safer options for students is a large contributor to their popularity as well.
"I often hear people say that it is better than smoking cigarettes. Well, it may be a little better than smoking cigarettes, that doesn't mean it is good for you. We just don't know if it's harmful or not yet," Loridon said. "It is still a status thing. I think students and young adults just think it is the hip, cool thing to do. It helps that it tastes good and it has the misconception that it is not a big deal."
The unknown chemicals present in vape products make them a questionable product according to Johns Hopkins Medicine, which states that "many e-cigarette users get even more nicotine than they would from a tobacco product."
However, the perceived health benefits in comparison to other tobacco products are part of the reason why the senior male uses them, as well as casual fun.
"I think vaping is a lot healthier than cigarettes. Not to say vaping is healthy, because it's not … but, if I am going to harm my body, I want to take some precautions," he said. "[It's] partly because I just kind of enjoy it. There's a buzz. Your body just kind of feels tingly and relaxed. The feeling of the vapor in your mouth and blowing it is enjoyable. Vape tastes good."
Vape products have numerous health, legal and school consequences for youth
While the FDA's efforts to regulate marketing are meant to help decrease teen dependence on vape products, the school also enforces punishments to curtail the prevalence of vapes. The nicotine content in vapes is what dictates the consequences, according to Loridon.
"The vapes I confiscated contain nicotine and the state law and the city ordinance of Shawnee states that nicotine is illegal for anybody under the age of 18," Loridon said. "It is my job that, if you are breaking the law while at school, you get punished for it. It's a big deal because it contains nicotine. We wouldn't let students smoke cigarettes, we can't let them vape."
The punishment for vaping or other prohibited behaviors applies both on school and district grounds as well as school activities. It consists of three days of out-of-school suspension and potentially a ticket from the police department, if the user is underage. In the week of Monday, Oct. 22 alone, over 20 students were suspended for vaping at school.
When it comes to the penalties for using vapes at school, Waldeck believes students need to be aware of all the potential outcomes.
"I like to be open and upfront. If they're caught vaping, the consequences are inevitable by policy," Waldeck said. "It is my hope that they realize the dangers involved and refrain from doing so. We just want to make sure kids are safe and healthy."
The dangers inherent in vape is partly why the anonymous girl believes it is not worth starting.
"Once you reach a certain point of addiction, you don't even get buzzed anymore. You don't get the effects to sustain yourself, so there is no point in starting it," she said. "I think the adults need to realize that the majority of kids don't like the fact that they have Juuls and stuff, and that [kids] are addicted and don't want to be."
Loridon hopes students avoid vaporizers and e-cigarettes due to the lack of knowledge about the product itself, as well as what is in it.
"What I want most students to know is that you don't know what you are putting into your body. Not knowing what you are putting into your body should make you not want to do it," Loridon said. "We had recently a student [who] found a vape and used it and shared the found vape … The first person didn't know where it's been and what's in it and certainly neither does the second person, so how do we know for certain if there was any other drugs or bacteria or something completely disgusting?"
Despite the unknowns and the consequences, the senior male believes that punishments won't stop those who vape.
"Honestly, I don't think it's going to change a thing. Whether it gets harsher or less harsh, it doesn't matter because if [people] already behave one way, they're going to continue behaving that way," he said. "I don't think punishment is really going to change that person's mindset. If someone is going to get suspended, I can guarantee that they're still going to use it at school ーat least some of them."
However, the sophomore female believes that vapes will naturally phase out as students distance themselves from the negative effects.
"Kids now realize how bad it is for you. That's why I'm trying to quit, because I know it's bad for my health. It's just hard," she said. "I think within a couple months, people will be trying to stop. Everyone wants to. That'll be a lot of people's New Year resolutions."

Nordic Museum brings to life the impacts of climate change
Earlier this year, integrator Kreativ Teknik won a contract to provide a visual solution for a new exhibition, The Arctic – while the ice is melting, at the Nordic Museum.
The Nordic Museum's grand hall would give way to the exhibition, which deals with the Arctic area from a variety of perspectives, namely; the geographical area, the people who actually live there, how you live today and how you lived in the past, the animals, and then perhaps the most critical issue today, climate change and the polar melting – how do we adapt to it?
The central element invites visitors to hike through a mock-up of a giant iceberg with a deep crack running through the centre representing the rift between past and present. The centre piece was created in co-operation with the design-duo MUSEEA.
Upon entering the over 20m-high hall, two 10,000 lumen Optoma ZU1050 laser projectors – powered by a pair of BrightSign players, illuminate the pair of iceberg facades with stylised moving images of cascading ice on each side of the cracks.
Continue the journey by entering the iceberg to discover multifaceted stories about the history, the future of the Arctic, and the people who call it their home. The stories told through a collection of contemporary films from the Arctic, are fed from a computer with nine outputs running Arkaos Mediamaster PRO to nine ZU500TST projectors.
Take a diversion into the crevice, where ice is projected from a Datatron Watchout to two ZU500TSTs onto the curved wall, giving the feeling of being in an igloo.
To complete the adventure and discovery of life in the Arctic, the pièce de résistance calls visitors to gaze up at the northern sky, 12 ZU750 projectors point upwards onto the curved ceiling. Jesper Wachtmeister creates the projections, building primarily on Nordic Museum's collection of contemporary photos and films, and featuring stunning photography of the aurora borealis – the ceiling allows guests to take a seat and experience the changing world.

Q: JS button prompt with Yes/No options Creating a "Remove Token" button that will alert the user with a confirmation "Yes" or "No". Won't work with my current code:
<button onclick="alertFunction">Remove Token</button>
  <script>
  function alertFunction() {
  if (confirm('Remove token?')) {
    return;
  } else {
  return false;
  }
  }
  </script>

What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

A: The main problem comes from the missing parentheses () in the following line :
<button onclick="alertFunction()">Remove Token</button>
______________________________^^

I suggest to avoid the inline-event onclick and use addEventListener() instead :

document.getElementById('my-button').addEventListener('click', function() {
  if (confirm('Remove token?')) {
    console.log('OK');
  } else {
    console.log('Cancel');
  }
})
<button id="my-button">Remove Token</button>

A: You are just missing the () when you call the function i.e. onclick="alertFunction()"
Currently the onclick event is just trying to use a variable and not run your function.
Full code:
<button onclick="alertFunction()">Remove Token</button>
<script>
  function alertFunction() {
    if (confirm('Remove token?')) {
      return;
    } else {
      return false;
    }
  }
</script>

A: <button onclick="alertFunction">Remove Token</button>

should be
<button onclick="alertFunction()">Remove Token</button>

but using Zakaria's approach is likely the more correct one for this type of functionality. Generally speaking its a good habit to keep any functions outside of your markup.

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 18, Text 03 | Listen to Bhagavad Gita As It Is Online in MP3 Audio Format.
tyajyam — must be given up; dosa-vat — as an evil; iti — thus; eke — one group; karma — work; prahuh — they say; manisinah — great thinkers; yajna — of sacrifice; dana — charity; tapah — and penance; karma — works; na — never; tyajyam — are to be given up; iti — thus; ca — and; apare — others.
Some learned men declare that all kinds of fruitive activities should be given up as faulty, yet other sages maintain that acts of sacrifice, charity and penance should never be abandoned.
There are many activities in the Vedic literature which are subjects of contention. For instance, it is said that an animal can be killed in a sacrifice, yet some maintain that animal killing is completely abominable. Although animal killing in a sacrifice is recommended in the Vedic literature, the animal is not considered to be killed. The sacrifice is to give a new life to the animal. Sometimes the animal is given a new animal life after being killed in the sacrifice, and sometimes the animal is promoted immediately to the human form of life. But there are different opinions among the sages. Some say that animal killing should always be avoided, and others say that for a specific sacrifice it is good. All these different opinions on sacrificial activity are now being clarified by the Lord Himself.

Peter Lion had been keen in the direction of writing from a very early age. All through his growing up years in Connecticut he was observed dabbling in poetry as well as wrote numerous short tales. His skill within this field had been additionally perfected when right after joining the Notre Dame High School in Connecticut he began adding to the students school newspaper.
He attempted to make a profession involving his enthusiasm for the words and phrases by initially obtaining a degree in Journalism from the Southern Connecticut State University. He released his very first magazine article within the Hartford Magazine before he had graduated along with his journalism degree.
He embarked in to the television industry also before he had completed his college. A few months before graduating, Peter Lion took up employment with WTNH-TV as a part tome graphics operator. This television channel was an affiliate with the ABC network and also had been based out of New Haven. Peter Lion though, had no experience within this discipline grabbed this opportunity to acquire an access as well as to create a foothold within the news and tv sector.
He mastered the actual ropes quickly, understanding the particular technicalities on the operation of a television network and continued to be part of this channel for more than a period of 2 years.
Then he relocated to Boston and also began working with WSBK as being a Technical Director. He handled several assignments, his major one remaining the Boston Red Sox Baseball and Boston Bruins Hockey. Nevertheless, his wish to be within television and his love for writing pulled him back to his home state as part of a tiny tv station start-up.
He joined up with this particular team as a director and also a technical director for the 10 PM news cast, which was to become the very first within the state. He snapped up the chance of presenting his expertise and understanding as in his stint in Boston he has had the ability of working together with several accomplished directors. He employed this understanding to build the actual show right from scratch.
Peter Lion relocated to Pittsburg and joined KADA TV after finishing two years in this start-up. During his stint with this tv network, he milked the various areas of his talent as well as worked as being a weather anchor, announcer, news producer, feature producer and director. It had been during his stint at KADA-TV that Peter Lion found inspiration for his book named "The American St. Nick".
Then he transferred back to Connecticut and grew to become a part of ESPN sports network. Still an integral part of ESPN, he is in charge for a number of their particular shows including Sports Centre as well as the NFL Draft through his position within the organization as being a Director. His main show however, remains, College Gameday.
He has been a 2 time winner of the Emmy awards, even though he's already been nominated many times with regard to his contribution within the television industry. He got his very first Emmy with regard to his work within Sports Centre and acquired his subsequent Emmy for the show NFL countdown.
Apart from doing work, Peter Lion is currently focusing on his second book. He is additionally a part of a music group which goes by the title of "Cheaper than Therapy" and is its lead singer and guitar player

Oh, that purple flower and those gossamer wings. Every once in a while a photographer gets lucky, where the light, the focus, and the subject all come together. A very happy Sunday for me.
Wonderful picture, Laurie. I think we can even see the expression on the bee's face!
Thanks, Cheryl! How lucky was that?
Yes, yes! I sure did get lucky.
Thanks, Burni. I was pretty pleased to be able to get such a great shot of the bee.
Great photo. What flower is that? I don't recognize the buds. Torenia, maybe?
Thanks, Jason. Yes, it is torenia.

Q: What pattern to use with aspnet mvc? I always used asp.net webforms with the MVP pattern, it works great for what I need, I basically create a project where all my business rules reside, validation etc... and I then implement my views in the webforms project.
Now we're starting to use asp.net MVC and using the MVP patter doesn't make much sense, right? So what could be a good approach to create a scalable and testable project using MVC that won't make me create my data objects and do validation on the controllers. I don' want to have the same code in different places...
If a web user wants to update his/her profile on the site, there would be some validation rules for when a submit button is pushed, like email address cannot be empty, must be valid and must not exist in the database.
These same rules should be applied if I try to update his profile using the internal admin section without having to duplicate the code there...
If you can point me to a good sample project that deals with this would be great!
Thanks in advance!

A: You should use the MVC pattern with ASP.Net MVC.

A: The NerdDinner tutorial is a pretty detailed example for MVC, you can also get a book that includes the tutorial (you might want to wait for the version that covers ASP.Net MVC 3).  There are plenty of resources on Microsoft's ASP.Net site.
You can always consult Google.

A: ASP .NET MVC was built with the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern in mind.  That would be the pattern you'd want to use.
In addition to the resources magnifico provided, I know others have recommended the some other tutorials.  I don't know if these have been updated to the latest version of the framework, but they should still serve as decent beginners.
MVC Storefront series
MVC Music Store
Also the Microsoft Patterns & Practices group recently released Project Silk which gets into more advanced techniques involving a lot of AJAX management of the UI.  There's interesting stuff there.


High quality inputs with high metal and low gauge content, preferably sinter with an iron content of 61-63.5% and pellets with an iron content in the range of 66.6-66.8%, should be used to the extent possible. High quality inputs lower the need for reducing agent, decrease energy consumption and CO2 emissions, and increase productivity. Other critical factors are moderate ash content of coke and low ash content of coal for injection.
Use of high quality pellets and sinter is in principle applicable to different plants, but requires development and a fundamental understanding of the effects of different iron ore on blast furnace performance. A major limitation of this practice is the cost-effective avaiability of high quality ores.
Use of high quality ore is regarded to have good potential in India and in the United States. In India, the potential will be limited by the availability of high quality ore and its transport to the plants. For China the potential is regarded to be low due to poor quality of the ore commonly available.
The use of high quality ore increases productivity and energy efficiency of of ironmaking process.
This technique will reduce CO2 emissions by 15-80 kg/t hot metal.
The economic benefits are connected with increased productivity, reduced energy consumption and decrease in demand of reducing agents.

Getting into the fall mood, we bring you a unit study and the how-to's of old-fashioned maple syrup, as well as old-fashioned lost arts such as candlewicking and porcelain painting. Try your hand while teaching your children something new about something old. This feature begins on page 168 and even includes an original story by Rebekah Wilson of Hope Chest Legacy Publishing.
What do you do if your children want to learn something that you don't know how to teach them? Well, if you've taught them to teach themselves, or if you have the right resources, you don't have to know everything in order for them to learn. Case in point: my sons heard some ladies talking about their hobby of knitting, and they immediately wanted to try this out for themselves. Since I didn't know how to teach them, they did their own research. They found a short how-to-knit video online, watched it, and began rummaging the house for yarn. Having found a small ball of yarn, they wondered how they could knit with no needles. They ended up using sharpened colored pencils!
It was such a joy to my heart to see my boys try something new and be innovative when they came to what seemed like a brick wall. (And who else but homeschooled teenaged boys would be seen knitting—with colored pencils, no less!) After watching them master the basics, I took them out and purchased needles and yarn and a storage container to keep it all in. In three days' time, their new hobby turned out some beautiful scarves without one ounce of help from me.
Home education works, and by the time you have high school-aged children, you will know that there really is no better way to have spent your time than to have schooled your children at home all the way through high school graduation. This issue contains our Homeschool Alumni column, which highlights some of these homeschool graduates and tells what they are doing now (page 208). Our writer for that column also gave us a wonderful article on homeschooling through high school and featured even more high school grads to inspire us (page 133).
Does anything smell better than the scent of fresh, oven-baked French bread? I would like to share a simple bread recipe with you. This recipe is great because you can do anything you like with it. Sometimes I make raisin bread just by adding raisins and cinnamon to the dough. (You also can make cranberry or Craisin® bread simply by adding those ingredients to the dough.) This recipe can be used for bread loaves, bread rolls, cinnamon rolls, braids, pretzels, and whatever else you can think of! Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do.
Preheat oven to 375°. In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of flour and the yeast. Heat water, sugar, salt, and oil just until warm. Add to flour and yeast mixture and mix well for a minute, scraping the bowl.
Continue to mix until well blended (or about 3 minutes). Stir in about 2½ more cups of flour to make a soft dough. Turn onto lightly floured surface and knead remaining flour into dough until smooth (about 10 minutes). Shape into a ball.
Place in lightly greased bowl, turning once in the bowl to grease surface of dough. Cover bowl and let rise in warm place (~ 80° F) until double, about 1 to 1½ hours. Punch down, and then divide dough in half and place back in bowl. Cover and let rest 10 minutes.
Spray two loaf pans with nonstick spray. Shape and place divided dough into pans. Brush tops with melted butter. Bake in 375° oven for 40 minutes.
Bake until a nice golden brown color (be careful, it can burn fast) and apples are tender, about 30 minutes.
Served warm with vanilla ice cream, this makes a delicious dessert. We also serve it plain for a holiday breakfast treat.

Q: C# multiple conditions with if and els if I am currently taking a course in c#. One of the exercises is the following.
Ask the user to enter the ring colors of the first 3 rings as text (e.g. green). Then show the value of this resistor. So if the user enters in sequence: red - purple - red
Then the program will show:
This resistor has value of 2700 Ohms
I want to solve this with "if and els is". I already have the following code but I am stuck on one part.
Console.WriteLine("Enter the first ring color");
string firstRingColor = Console.ReadLine();

Console.WriteLine("Enter the second ring color");
string secondRingColor = Console.ReadLine();

Console.WriteLine("Enter the third ring color");
string thirdRingColor = Console.ReadLine();

if (firstRingColor =="black" || secondRingColor =="black" || thirdRingColor == "black")
{
    Console.WriteLine("0");
}
else if (firstRingColor == "brown" || secondRingColor == "brown" || thirdRingColor == "brown")
{
    Console.WriteLine("1");
}

with the execution of this program it only executes the last part. Is there a way to save the result and display it afterwards

A: Here's your homework code
NOTE that this code is for 5- and 6-band resistors and your sample of red-purple-red calculates to 2700ohm for 4-band resistors, so you need to enter 'red-purple-black-red' to convert it to 5- and 6-band format... or you can remove reading r3

// entry point
void Main()
{
    // define the values associated with colors for resistivity
    var rColorValues = new Dictionary<string, float> {
        {"black",0},
        {"brown",1},
        {"red", 2},
        {"gold",3},
        {"yellow",4},
        {"green",5},
        {"blue",6},
        {"purple",7},
        {"silver",8},
        {"white",9},
    };

    // colors associated with the multiplier ring
    // similar strategy can be used for tolerance and temperature coefficient rings, not shown here
    var multColorValues = new Dictionary<string, float>{
        {"black", 1},
        {"brown", 10},
        {"red",   100},
        {"gold",  1000},
        {"yellow",10000},
        {"green", 100000},
        {"blue",  1000000},
        {"purple",10000000},
        {"silver",0.01f},
    };

    // read the colors for 3 rings.This works for 5 and 6-band resistors
    // for 4-band resistor the third ring has to be 'black'
    float r1 = ReadColorValue("First ring:", rColorValues);
    float r2 = ReadColorValue("Second ring:", rColorValues);
    float r3 = ReadColorValue("Third ring:", rColorValues);

    // get the color for the multiplier ring
    float mult = ReadColorValue("Multiplier ring:", multColorValues);

    // calculate the ohms
    int ohms = (int)((r1*100+r2*10+r3)*mult);

    Console.WriteLine($"{ohms} Ohm resistor");
}

// this method writes the prompt, reads a line and returns the value from the dictionary, if one matches
float ReadColorValue(string prompt, Dictionary<string, float> colorToValueMap)
{
    while (true) // keep asking for input until a valid one is received
    {
        Console.Write(prompt);
        var consoleInput = Console.ReadLine().ToLower();
        if (colorToValueMap.ContainsKey(consoleInput)){
            // if the color name is found - return the value associated with it
            return colorToValueMap[consoleInput];
        }
        // ... otherwise - help the user
        Console.Error.WriteLine("Unknown value. Enter one of: "+string.Join(", ",colorToValueMap.Keys));
    }
}

Q: datetimepicker calendar not showing I found this site

https://eonasdan.github.io/bootstrap-datetimepicker/

And I'm trying to implement one of the code in the website which is

                <input type='text' class="form-control" />

                <input type='text' class="form-control" />

It's a linked DateTime Picker and I did write some code in the header to make it work but sadly the calendar thingy is still not showing after a few attempts. Strangely enough the datetime picker calendar shows on some other code i found but i specifically want this one to use.
the link/scripts i wrote in the header was
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">
    <link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-datepicker/1.7.1/css/bootstrap-datepicker3.css" rel="stylesheet" id="bootstrap-css">

As I've mentioned earlier, some other datetimepicker codes i found work this but it doesn't work on eonasdan's code.

A: You have forgot to add bootstrap-datetimepicker.js Also I have noted that your jquery has been added at the end so please change it to the first position of jquery.
Please add this

Example : https://codepen.io/mamjad00/pen/YqOWav

A: use all links properly from your reference jquery link should be first then you have to use other links in your html head
