Locally (our market) most of the time form fillers are permanent. The Joist (ribs) are at least 4(10cm) width and are usually Tapered (slope) (12:1) and are spaced so that the clear spacing distance between adjacent ribs does not exceed 30 76cm  1:2 12:24 Tapered 4'' (10cm) During construction. Besides ACI deflection requirements Table6. sometimes called "Ribbed Slab Construction" consist of regularly spaced ribs monolithically built with top floor slab and arranged to a span in one direction. Fillers are made of light-weight or normal weight concrete blocks (Hordure). The slab is in the range of 2 5cm  to 410cm  thick. removable and reusable form fillers might be used in spaces between Joists.1 (gives us min h to control deflection) and some other requirements dictate the design and they include: 2 . but may occasionally be as much as 6(15cm). ( Indicates rib direction) The dimensions of a one way Joist floor system are usually such that only temperature and shrinkage reinforcement is required in the slab.One-Way Joist Slabs One-Way Joist floor construction.

Metagenics Estrofactors- Nutritional Supplement Info
Metagenics Estrofactors May Aid in Hormone Balance for Women
From the cramping and discomfort related to PMS to the hot flashes and irritability associated with menopause, hormonal nutritional supplement use is on the rise, according to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. About 52% of women in 2000 sought relief of these symptoms through nutritional supplements, and the number is on the rise. Metagenics Estrofactors is an ingestible nutritional supplement that claims to provide estrogen hormonal balance. The intended audience for use of this product includes women experiencing premenstrual syndrome, perimenopause and menopause.
Who Should Take Metagenics Estrofactors
Nutritional hormonal supplements are designed to aid in the balance of certain hormones that may become irregular over time. Estrogen balancing hormones may alleviate discomforts for women ranging from pubescent age to post-menopause who are experiencing PMS and menopause symptoms. Metagenics Estrofactors, an example of a supplement designed to aid hormone imbalance, is designed for women suffering from PMS, perimenopause, and menopause.
How Metagenics Estrofactors Works
By combining a variety of vitamins and herbs, the ingredients of nutritional supplements may provide a biological answer for hormonal imbalances. Metagenics Estrofactors contains a combination of specific vitamins and herbs. Vitamin A, which is one of the main ingredients in the product, aids in cell and hormone regeneration and eliminates free radicals. The Vitamin D found in this product aids in bone health, which is important for women of all ages. According to researchers, Turmeric, a spice from India that is in this product, has been found to reduce the risk of cancer. These ingredients, along with others, combine to possibly help hormone balance.
Specifically, the nutrients found in this supplement address estrogen activity by breaking it down, eliminating it from the body efficiently, and rebuilding it. By controlling how estrogen is broken down and how fast it is eliminated from the body, Metagenics Estrofactor may help provide hormone balance, according to the makers of Metagenics Estrofactor.
Though Metagenics Estrofactors claims to relieve hormonal imbalance, it has not been tested by the Food and Drug Administration. While each of the ingredients used in the product provides health benefits, the product can only claim to aid estrogen balance.
The PMS symptoms that this product claims to relieve include cramping, breast tenderness, and irritability because of the estrogen balance that it provides. This supplement may decrease breast cancer risk and increase bone density, because Vitamin D and Turmeric research shows a positive link to reducing the risks of osteoporosis and cancer.
The supplement may also prevent urinary tract infections, vaginal infections, and yeast infections by preventing vaginal dryness through increased estrogen levels and Vitamin A's power of cell regeneration. Mood changes and hot flashes may also weaken through the combination of ingredients and Rosemary found in the product. These symptoms, plus relief from trouble sleeping, are all health claims of Metagenics Estrofactor.
Just like other supplements and medications, Metagenics Estrofactor may cause side effects when ingested, and may alter the efficacy of other medications. According to some anonymous users, the product caused adverse reactions like fatigue, while others stated that it gave them increased energy.
Although the FDA has not conducted direct studies on Metagenics Estrofactor itself, studies have been conducted on estrogen therapy. A study conducted through the Women's Health Initiative in 2004 showed that a non-placebo estrogen therapy group displayed a minor decrease in breast cancer risk and fewer bone fractures. However, the study concluded that there was an increased stroke and blood clot risk with increased estrogen exposure.
Like all medications, it is beneficial to discuss options with healthcare providers.

UAE Geographical Location, Climate and Culture Make Dubai one of the Most Favorite Tourist Destinations.
The official country language is Arabic, but most of the citizens speak the English language as well.
The UAE borders on Quatar, Sultanate of Oman and Saudi Arabia. The emirates are located on the Persian Gulf sea board, except Fujairah, which is located on the Indian Ocean sea side. The total area of the country is 90 559 square kilometers. The most significant part of it is located in the Arabia Desert. The Middle East is a region with a great natural variety: desert landscapes, oasis, dried creeks, dunes, mountains, volcanic lakes. The coral riffs of Khorfakkan are famous for its oceanic flora and fauna. The Persian Gulf sea side is known for the golden sand and pure water.
The UAE climate is dry and subtropical. Winters are dry and warm, summers are humid and hot. The seaside areas are much more humid than the center areas. Rains are very rear, droughts can happen often and last for years. Sand storms are typical for springs. It is always sunny in UAE, but the most favorable months for visiting are October, November and December.
The state legislation is built on the Islamic culture basis. The residents' life style is subjected to Schariah, the main source of law. Different emirates practise different social behavior standards. The Non-Muslim visitors are expected to follow the generally accepted cultural rules. Traditionally the strict dress – code is required in the public areas. The people of UAE are friendly, hospitable and tolerant. That makes Dubai one of the most favorite tourist destinations and a unique place to get acquainted to.

Q: Is there a way to toggle word wrapping for the Output window in VS Code? I've been working with large print statements in VS Code recently and was wondering: is there was an easy way to turn on word wrapping in the OUTPUT window rather than having to use a horizontal scroll bar?
In a situation where I'm printing a string with hundreds of characters, I would like it to be able to wrap around the output window properly.
There is an editor word wrap setting but I have not been able to find anything that actually affects the output window.

The same camera technology that automatically recognizes faces and text could help the legally blind read. A new study presented at the American Academy of Ophthalmology's annual meeting showed that legally blind study participants more than tripled their accuracy in several daily activities involving reading, as well as a few non-reading activities, by using a wearable camera.
For the study, participants wore the Orcam MyEye. The camera is mounted on a pair of glasses, and using character-recognition technology, reads the text it views into an earpeice. The same camera can also use facial detection software to tell the wearer who they are looking at.
The study followed a dozen legally blind individuals with visual scores of less than 20/200. Participants were asked to take a 10-item test simulating everyday activities such as reading a newspaper or a sign, both with and without the device.
The study went on to show that after wearing the device for a week, the participants were able to edge up that score to 9.8.
The OrCam MyEye was launched last year, but the study was the first to actually measure how well the device works, albeit with a very low number of participants. Along with using optical character recognition whenever the wearer points to any text, the MyEye can store images of faces, then uses facial recognition to announce any faces it detects into the earpeice. According to OrCam, the device can also be used to help those with disorders like dyslexia.
Moisseiev said that additional studies including more participants would help expand the pilot study's findings.

Lotus appoints a new Chief Operating Officer, but who is Aslam Bin Farikullah?
By Steve Davies•June 7, 2012•In Automotive•4 Minutes
In a statement released this evening, DRB-Hicom announced the appointment of Mohd Aslam Bin Farikullah as Lotus' new Chief Operating Officer (COO), at the same time as they confirmed the termination of Dany Bahar as Group Lotus CEO.
But who is Aslam Bin Farikullah and what does his appointment mean for the future of Lotus?
Well, firstly he's not a man we should expect to see (or hear) much from. Unlike Bahar, whose name is currently mentioned in 466,000 search listings on Google, Bin Farikullah appears in just 81 entries. In fact there's very little known about a man who's worked at DRB-Hicom since 2007 and is one of the Malaysian company's most senior executives.
Bin Farikullah is 51 years of age and has worked most of his 26 years in the automotive industry. He graduated from the University of Bath, England with a Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Engineering and is also an Associate Member of the UK Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE).
He started his career as an Assistant Lecturer at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) and then moved on to become a Quality Engineer at Malaysia's top aviation maintenance and repair (MRO) centre, Airod Sdn. Bhd.
In 1989, Bin Farikullah returned to England to work as a Project Engineer with AE Auto Parts, before moving to Denso Marston – Europe's leading manufacturer of automotive components, as a Product Technical Manager.
He returned to Malaysia in 2007 joining DRB-Hicom, where he was seconded to Isuzu HICOM Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (formerly known as Malaysian Truck & Bus Sdn. Bhd.) as Chief Operating Officer. In 2008 he became Head of Enterprise Quality & Improvements at DRB-Hicom and then Head of Vehicle Manufacturing Projects from April 2010.
According to the latest information provided by DRB-Hicom, Bin Farikullah is now a permanent British resident, living with his English wife of 27 years and their three children aged 26, 22 and 16.
From the information we've been able to gather, Bin Farikullah seems like a safe pair of hands. An engineer, family man and an executive who is more than competent in the manufacture and assembly of automotive vehicles and components. However, there is nothing in his past experience that would qualify him to lead a sports car company, nor create the kind of marketing and commercial deals necessary to build a strong international dealer network.
With Bin Farikullah being appointed to the role of COO, his role is clearly intended to oversee the operation of Group Lotus' businesses (including its successful engineering and consulting firm) and either wait for a CEO to join, or be the caretaker until Lotus is eventually sold to another party.
Dato' Sri Haji Mohd Khamil Jamil, Group Managing Director of DRB-HICOM Berhad and Chairman of Lotus said this evening that "…we remain committed to ensure the ongoing and future business operations of the Lotus Group as we take the Lotus Group to the next level to remain relevant in the global automotive industry", so if that is indeed the case, then we await to hear who will take the top spot and lead the renaissance of Norfolk's most famous brand.
DRB-Hicom has confirmed this evening that no further comment will be passed on their dismissal of Dany Bahar, however we expect a statement outlining Bin Farikullah's immediate plans to re-build confidence with the company's customers, suppliers and dealers.
We wish him well.

Perspective: The Future's Bright, but is the Future Green?


The phrase "you had to be there" is overused. But in the case of Matt Ryan changing my opinion from promising rookie to all time Falcon great, you had to be there. Anyone who has attended an NFL game knows that there is an emotional context that can be conveyed in a television broadcast. And in 11 game clock seconds, my view of Matt Ryan was altered forever.
I must admit that I am lucky enough to have loyal season ticket holders around me. Many sections had tons of fan roll over after the Mike Vick debacle, but rows 1-5 of section 329 stood firm. Even though these rows have been consistent since 2001, there are pockets of seats often filled with enemy colors. With such a rich history, one would expect a lot of opposing fans when a team like the Chicago Bears rolled into town. On this day, there were five very quiet fans near me.
Entering the Georgia Dome before the game, Bears fans were quite verbose. But something magical happened in the first quarter. On the opening drive, the Falcons kicked a field goal to go ahead of the Bears 3-0. Just a field goal. But like a strange fairy book spell, all the bravado of those Bear fans within ear shot disappeared. And for the next 54 minutes of game play, those verbose fans were the most well behaved visitors to ever enter the Georgia Dome. Other than polite cheering when things went well for them, these monsters of the midway were silent.
Even while their team drove down the field with under two minutes to play, there were no taunts, no smack talk, no bragging like when they had arrived for the game. Then with 17 seconds on the game clock, Chicago quarterback Kyle Orton threw a 17 yard touchdown pass to tie the game. And those sleeping giants awoke. It began behind me. It started with a Simpsons-esque, "Ha Ha" from two rows behind me. Then all Hades broke loose as the portly pair of Chicago fans in front of me broke into the truffle shuffle. And after the presumed game winning extra point sailed through the uprights, salt was poured into the wound of my broken heart.
Oh, he was about to get it.
With only 11 seconds on the game clock, I literally was to depressed to stand as the Chicago Bears kicked off. It was a short kick of 36 yards, but WR Harry Douglas managed to shave off another 5 seconds while gaining only 10 yards. Six yards shy of midfield. With only six seconds on the clock. With a rookie quarterback making only his sixth start. This hopeless situation was highlighted by the heckles of these previously polite visitors. Then Matt Ryan confidently jogged on the field.
My heart began to rise as the Falcons offense huddled up. I tried to calm myself as the huddle broke and the Falcons lined up for the would be final play in a heartbreaking loss. As much of a fan I was of Matt Ryan, he was still a rookie. In this pressure packed final pass, I assumed he we do what rookies do: Hail Mary the ball three yards short of the end zone for an interception. We needed a miracle, and we had one… Made of ice.
As kicker Jason Elam nailed the winning field goal, fans continued to celebrate. Before the ball was snapped, those wearing the blue jersey seemed to have vanished into thin air. It didn't matter. We were too overjoyed to bother with gloating. Too thankful for the heart that the Falcons showed to be vindictive.
It is odd when a quarterback's most memorable pass is not a touchdown. But the context of that pass makes it amazing. Under pressure, both physically and mentally, Matt Ryan made the only possible play that could win the game. More than his first professional pass being a touchdown, this singular moment would set the precedent for his future success and my ownership of his jersey.
I often quote the underrated football comedy "The Replacements" when speaking about Ryan, "Heart. Miles and miles of heart." Matt Ryan has had many moments since then that prove he has given this team the heart it has lacked for years. From being spun in the air in Minnesota to the gutsy win against the Jets, Matt Ryan has led the Atlanta Falcons from laughingstock to back to back to back to back winning seasons. But this moment in time is where I knew that no matter where he went, no matter what he did in the future, Matt Ryan would always be one of my all time favorite Falcons.

Now who could blame a person for wanting the fame associated with creating a new and exciting sports car. When it comes to the Sunbeam Tiger, the list of claimants includes a glorious collection of folks, most of whom were only loosely connected to the central players. Folklore being what it is, I think sidestepping the urge to bludgeon the tale of origin will save us all for another day. The salient facts rightfully credit Ian Garrad as the main motivator and that should serve as finger pointing enough for this day and age. What would be productive, if you could do it, would be to focus on the process of creating what is now known as the Shelby prototype. The problem with that dream, is those that were in the best position to observe the deed, can't remember much about it. Unlike Shelby's Mustang and Cobra projects, there are no "in progress" Tiger pictures, drawings, or written reports of any kind. It would be naive to expect Shelby to be a fount of knowledge concerning the details of construction. The same could be said for Dave Friedman, the official photographer, who somehow managed to confuse a Series IV bodied, Lew Spencer race car (the only Venice Sunbeam tenant captured by his lens) with a Series II bodied, finned prototype. But, when you're asking George Boskoff (the man who built the damn thing) whether the car was wire wheeled or not, you'd hope for something more enlightening than, "I don't recall". It's also not unreasonable to assume informational photos might have been a part of Ian Garrad's personal wish list, although the Miles car was so lightly documented it's hard to make the argument for more than a finished portrait, or two.
Ian Alan Garrad, son of Rootes Competition Manager, Norman Garrad, and father of the Sunbeam Tiger. Original art by my mom, Ruth J. Miller.
This one photocopy of a picture published in the April, 1964 issue of CALIFORNIA SPORTS CAR magazine is the only known record of the Shelby prototype the way it appeared when first completed. I haven't found anyone from the inner circle that remembers the wire wheels and none of them has ever referenced a pair of headrests. Is it possible the story of too much torque for a set of wires should be credited to this car rather than the Miles assemblage?
However, no such images have yet surfaced and knowing more than a few individuals have riffled Ian's archives, it is unlikely they ever will. That leaves us with one tantalizing snapshot from an unknown photographer. Looking for all the world as though it was taken through a chain link fence, the picture was used to supplement a press announcement that heralded the launch of Sunbeam Tiger production. The verbiage credits Tony Curtis as the first Hollywood "c-leb" to experience the new V8 powered Tiger, placing him at the front of a long line of luminaries used to promote Ian's dream machine. As noted next door (and on page ten of "Bits & Pieces") this photo raises several historic questions. I have no idea if they will ever be fully addressed, but it won't be for the lack of trying. Some of my best blood hounds are on the scent and if their past performance is any benchmark, we should all be encouraged. The biggest disappointment is not being able to tap any of the normal archival sources. After all, when the hands-on folks suffer brain fade, sleuthing is definitely not what it's cracked up to be.
Just after their reintroduction to public life, both American prototypes performed nearly identical disappearing acts. Neither left more than a hint to their existence and in the case of the "white car", the embargo continued until a San Diego area, used car lot's classified, in 1976. What little history we have comes via hindsight from the then current owner. It consisted of reports for first, "a young plumber" (who supposedly, expressed interest in the Miles car at its coming out, but ended up on the short end of the stick to some doctor) second, the plumber's "wife" (who was lent the car as a daily driver) third, the wife's "brother" (also a borrower in need of transportation) and fourth, "an errant tree" (reported to have somehow darted at the right front fender leaving it acutely pummeled ). These circumstances (a damaged front end and no interest in undertaking repairs) are listed as the justification for selling the car to the used car dealer, which led to the most recent documented title holder, Bill Carroll.
At the beginning of Bill Carroll's stewardship, Tiger enthusiasts had a number of opportunities to view the seldom seen Shelby Sunbeam. Displays such as this outing in Oregon were all the rage while the spotlight was bright.
With the blush of fresh ownership fading, the car was relegated to infrequent use. This particular excursion was undertaken to regale a special visitor from England. A neglected battery was conquered with the well-known bump-start procedure, adding considerable physicality to the "Sunday drive". The foolishness was captured by Martin Wildgoose and serves to remind him of a cherished opportunity to experience the Shelby prototype. I suppose that works out to only three, legal owners from new, but with no verification of the names in the middle, we are left to imagine life as a "plumber's helper". In contrast, Mr. Carroll does supply copious detail about reducing the, "as acquired, recapped tires," to little more than see-through prophylactics. As one who has witnessed his legendary driving style, I can attest to its fundamental component of wheel spinning. He also reported the state of affairs covering a poorly repaired and maintained front suspension, power plant and exhaust system. Regardless, B9117965 LRX managed to survive exposure to the plebian life far better than its Miles' crafted sibling. Save a few utilitarian changes, the car is pretty much the way Boskoff and Remington finished it.
One doubts the mishmash of colorful plug wires and tie-wrapped red heater hose as part of the original package, but who could challenge such an endearing air cleaner, or those early Girling hydraulic elements? Presumably, the four barrel and cast valve covers joined the mix when Ian authorized up-rating to a Shelby supplied hipo. That was (reportedly) done after the "blueprint" returned from its Lord Rootes review and couldn't have been many miles in front of being wholesaled, then re-sold through Escondido's Hungerford British Motor Cars. While I suspect it wasn't planned, waning enthusiasm and subsequent sporadic use, served to help mummify these notable remains.
The air cleaner used here is the identical piece employed by Ian Garrad on his never released "Super Tiger".
This rare "hood closed" portrait is believed to be as close to the "as-delivered" appearance as anyone with a marque background can recall. Aside from a little red pin striping, one can imagine Lord Rootes having just stepped from view. Much of the extended incarceration occurred right in Mr. Carroll's home garage. Surrendering to some serious unchecked erosion, the foundation of his parking structure could no longer properly support its essential elements. Among other things, eye wittiness' report a set of totally fowled, barn-type doors, a large number of household goods embracing the prototype like a glove and definitely no ready access. While the exact timeline is uncertain, there is no denying the San Marcos cocoon remained undisturbed and inaccessible for many, many months. Once unearthed, the celebration was discovering no severe damage. By whatever set of circumstances, life for the Garrad "grail" was definitely occupying charmed circles. The extricated hostage and several companion, home-stored relics were moved to a downtown lockup, with the luxury of enough room to have open space around each treasure.
Tucked away in a comfortable Quonset, it remained virtually out of sight until a San Diego appearance in 1990, at a Rick Cole Auction. Failing to find a new proprietor at that event, B9117965 LRX was returned to relative obscurity and didn't surface again until a public outing at Tigers United XXII in Eureka, California, 1997. During that gathering, attendees were exposed to all three of the "factory" sponsored prototypes and the observation that the Shelby machine had survived as a little-changed artifact of the Tiger's beginnings. One necessary correction to accepted history involves dispelling the notion that an MGA, or for that matter MGB, steering rack was a part of this original package. The actual piece comes from an MG Midget. Now, I wonder who amongst the "hanger arounds" at the time might have had the most experience with MG bits --- Doane Spencer?
We're told that most of the "doll up" items were added to the package at the very last minute. With Boskoff off in a huff due to accelerated completion pressures, Phil Remington is said to have orchestrated the final "first-drive" onslaught.
I suspect the red accents got expanded to the wheels as a part of preparing for a 1990 auction. The prototype was presented under a serious reserve, but only bid to $35,000 before our owner became furious with the auctioneers and pulled his entry via a high-revving departure. In large part, the laissez-faire upkeep approach of its caretaker can be credited with sustaining the basic, as-built, "audition" personality. The number of miles added to the odometer under Bill Carroll's stewardship can't have been more than a few hundred. With such limited use, one could expect the normal rip and replace rigmarole was blissfully bypassed. Sadly, my most recent, in-person observations (10/03) found a slowly decaying relic. After a lifetime of California, Mr. Carroll uprooted his San Marcos hoard and headed to fresh pastures in New Mexico. Stuffing years of domestic furnishings around and on top of the Boskoff creation during the move, did little to insure a damage free journey. A fresh set of external bumps and bruises were just a few of the obvious clues to a diminishing level of interest. In truth, the car has been quietly on and off the market for a number of years. However, until this last weekend (Sunday the 20th of August, 2006) it had failed to fetch a fresh custodian. At the end of the seven-day auction, with less than twenty bids tendered, an eBay buyer gobbled up the weakly marketed Shelby prototype with a final submission well under expectations. Even with the 6% commission, the amount was a bit trivial, considering what others had recently forked over for examples of the regular production, but no matter. I now have the ownership details and the news is good. The Tiger blueprint is back in California, with a very enthusiastic Sunbeam disciple. Pampering is already underway and the locals will have a first peek during an all British gathering in Palo Alto, 9/10/06. It hardly seems possible over forty years have passed since this vestige made another debut on the streets of Marina Del Rey . Here's to the dreamers, here's to the marque and here's to the ultimate Sunbeam Tiger sire.

[Pinned] Zer0 Hall of Fame
#14170782 Jul 03, 2019 at 06:12 PM
Welcome to the Zer0 PvM Hall of Fame!
In this topic, a few of the most outstanding, helpful, loyal and overall best members of Zer0 PvM are displayed. They have earned their spot here by working hard for the Zer0 PvM community, doing their best at AC's and helping the staff lead this clan to the maximum potential.
In order to get a special mention in the Hall of Fame, there are a few rules.
The person must have been in Zer0 PvM for a minimum of 3 years and be Zer0 Hero rank or higher.
Previous warnings/strikes/behavior will be taken into account
75% of Staff must nominate someone to be added to the Hall of Fame
Majority of Leaders must approve a nominated person to be added
Only Leaders and Co-Leaders may be able to write down new names in the Hall of Fame. Any Leader or Co-Leader may also add new information to someone's name as some people in the Hall of Fame are still in Zer0 PvM.
The Hall of Fame of Zer0 PvM can be found in the post below.
Zer0 PvM Hall of Fame:
Littlerarge
By Erwin:
The guy that has always stood behind Zer0 for as long as anyone can remember. Littlerarge is truely a remarkable person. Strong, dedicated, intelligent and friendly are just a few examples of character where he stands out in. Without Littlerarge, Zer0 PvM wouldn't have gotten to many points it has been in the past, nor would it be where it is today, Little's words of wisdom is what has kept zer0 going during very dark times. Littlerarge likes working behind the scenes, giving advice to those in need of it and stepping in when other staff can't handle it. Littlerarge is seen as 'the father' of Zer0 PvM and we are grateful that he's here with us!
Owain is and was always a great example of activity. Owain's contribution to Zer0 PvM is outstanding. With most posts on the Zer0 forums, countless AC's on his name and all his work in the staff section of the clan, he is truly a great leader. Even though he's currently the youngest leader, his mature attitude shows he's ready for any situation that comes on his path.
Aug 26 2014, By Mike:
Erwin, one of the 4 current leaders of zer0. Despite his inactivity lately due to: work, a hip injury and the ladies. Erwin is always here and prepared to help. His effort and perseverance has lead to the creation of our offsite and also our teamspeak server. His maturity has made this clan set a mark within this community and made it rise above the occasion. This legend is also known for being the sexiest member of Zer0. With his recent operation succeeded he has a bright future to go and we all support him till the very end. that's more than enough reason this name should be here and stay here.
Menace O o
Although Nathan has left Zer0 PvM by being inactive for ~5 months and then return to runescape to crash Zer0, he should still be acknowledged for his work in our clan, in the past.
Nathan was known for being the cool, hated-by-most bandos crasher. His way of running Zer0 PvM was very much alike. He wanted his way and he gets his way. Lucky for Zer0 PvM in the beginning, his way was the right way and Zer0 started to grow.
Menace managed to lead Zer0 PvM all the way to the #1 PVM spot. From there, it was getting harder, with Pro S Only pushing Zer0 PvM back. Menace needed help.
He will always be known as the 'stoned' owner of Zer0 PvM. In the end, this was his fall. Menace went inactive for a long time and Zer0 had to keep breathe for a long time without it's owner. After 5 months, after several attempts to come back to zer0, menace threw the towel in the ring and stepped down.
Eren is a very active zer0 member. He has always been one of the best at making sure people stick to rules and making the clan chat a friendly place to be in. Eren has always been there for zer0 when things were bad. Eren is also one of the best staff members that makes the most effort to socialise within the clan chat.
W A R D E N
Warden used to be a leader of zer0 during early 2011. During this time he was very active and would make sure every ac was done. If you were at bandos you would know that Warden was always out there crashing.
C U R A
Cura has been one of the most outstanding Co-Leaders of Zer0 PvM. Although most don't know that he's done most of his great work before he became Co Leader. When Zer0 was started to slump and people were starting to leave, Cura was there to strengthen the staff team to cope with it. His words and help were able to keep the staff focussed and concentrated on the problem. When he was rewarded for his great help, he became a great Co-Leader. The suggestions to improve Zer0 PvM, the ways of making people active and his ways to find & remove inactives and leechers from our clan were simply great. Cura always thought about things to improve and he always contacted staff about it.
His posts in staff (and also posts towards the members) were so detailed and expanded, we'd hardly have any questions left.
During the absence of a leader, he contacted them with all needed updates regarding the clan, to keep them updated too about what is going on. Was great to have had you here CURA.
Sublime 0_o
Sublime has been one of the most outsanding acer's when i joined Zer0 i seen him as the first person to ask for the ac. Some only people think of him as a great person towards Zer0 because of the All of the acing he has done for the clan in the past 1-2 Years of Zer0, Yet he has gone very inactive the past 9-10 months. He is one of my good friends yet he is on like he used 2 be because of the sof updates and such, which made him ragequit and go to other stuff i life. hopefully one day before eoc he will come back and be the "KING OF AC".
Darkgreen5
Most of you probably dont know him but before he quit around a year ago he was one of the best all round zer0 members. Active pvmer, acer, recruiter. He was best known for his work on zer0's old youtube channel with almost daily videos while he was active.
StylezDeLuxe
StylezDeLuxe was one of the founder of zer0 along with Menace, he was known as the pedo of zer0 :s. During 2010-early 2011 he led zer0 to many war victories. After leaving for a few months stylez came back to zer0 and did the same over again. Not only was stylez an amazing asset to the clan he was also an exceptional pvmer, making billions from killing bosses over the years, probably the richest I know who didnt stake for gp. He was also very active in the clan chat, always happy to help people and ofc perving. During his time in zer0 he also did quite abit of admin work on the site, thanks to him we have a reliabable site since oct 2011 after going through about 5 in a matter of months.. thats about it i think!
by Littlerarge:
Every challenge we set you excelled at, never afraid to ask or suggest new ideas it was a pleasure to have you in the clan top,if nobody knew how old you was they would be pleasantly surprised a maturity beyond your years one that will take you far in life. My only regret is that i never got to know you more as a person during your earlier time in zer0 but we can't befriend everybody just be there when they need us. But there a few people in zer0 like yourself that shows me the future is in good hands of are next generation,so thank you mikis now go work hard and play harder and you will get your just rewards, never has there been a more deserving person.
mucho little luv x
Lacrymosa
Lacrymosa is one of the people that have been in zer0 pvm longer than probably anybody else (without leaving). This great loyalty to the clan is one of the many aspects we respect him alot for. Leading the events team in our clan for a damn long time and good at it too, Lacrymosa currently strengthens our clan issues section. Even though Lacrymosa has a hard time 'wrapping' his comments/feedback in a positive way, we also appreciate his input into this clan.
Can I get In
Can I get In, known to many of us as John, has been around in zer0 for long too. He climbed the ranks up to the position of co-leader and from there helped run this clan. John is one of the most active posters on our offsite and always up for a good laugh. He's basically one of the basic assets of zer0 pvm, one of the bricks that make this clan the way it is. Without john no zer0 the way it is :)
1 sens fan
Sens has been, same as Can I get In, one of the primary assets of Zer0 PvM. Sens has worked himself up to co-leader aswell and still remains there. Empowering the leadership team with his own inputs and a beast at PvM, sens cannot be missed in our clan.
Cmunk Alvin
Cmunk Alvin has been with zer0 for a loooong time. And for as long as I can remember, he's also done the role of media guy in the clan. Because of Alvin, we've had the pleasure of our own Youtube Droplog, Zer0 promo videos and recently even our own podcast. Anything media related, feel free to ask Alvin about it!
Tekkers v2
Tekkers has shown his real leadership abilities only recently, before that he's been a valuable asset of our staff team by simply helping members out and just do what he has to do. After being voted most helpfull staff member, the leadership team decided we really need someone like tekkers in our team. And that's where tekkers is now!
Sir Norfolk1
Norfolk has only been part of zer0's staff team for a small period, but the reason for his place in this hall of fame is his loyalty and contribution to Zer0, as a member. Norfolk is one of those members that are part of the inner core of a clan. He's one of those that will stay with Zer0 at any given time. Even when it's not going too very well with the clan. For that we are grateful.
Zer0 Snow
Snow has also been part of the staff team for some time, but most of his time he's been around as a regular member. The reason for his mention here is his hard work on the GFX departement. Snow has made most of our banners, personal signatures, award signatures and requirement pictures. Thanks for this, snow!
Id yak that
Id yak that, Justin. Before he left us for the 07 servers, he used to be one of our anticrash coordinators. While being very active in this department, Id yak that even led his own 'team' within zer0, dedicated to (anti)crashing. This team, Bricksquad, became a term to be frightened of, if you are not in Zer0 PvM. Thanks to Id yak that's effort, no AC was left undone while he was online.
Majin Zaros
Zaros has been in Zer0 for quite a while and he's been one of those people you just cannot miss being around. Very active, very helpful and always up to improve the clan. Zaros became the first Activity Coordinator of Zer0 and took this job very seriously. At times, too serious. Even though he's had his ups and downs in the clan, we've always respected him the way he is and zer0 wouldn't be the clan it is today without him. We'd miss our lines of ===== Stay active on our offsite and teamspeak server! ======.
Helaholla
I had to make this, because he's been bugging me about it for too long (No people, don't start bugging me for a spot on here now, not doing it).
Mike has been part of the Zer0 pvm staff for quite a while and has always shown great dedication to the clan. Always working his ass off at any time of rank/job he's given, Mike has proven himself to be worth alot. Currently on the clan issues team of this clan, Mike will always deal with problems in a mature and logical way. Wondering where this will take him later on!
Ceo Lorenzo
By Sam N Stuff:
I think I can speak for the most of us that Lorenzo deserved his place on the hall of fame for being a very helpfull person in general, was always willing to help people, and could always have a chat with him about all kinda topics :p
Although Lorenzo has a lot of friends, he always was neutral in clan issues (issues in the clan in general) and stood up for his own opinion, and didn't do what others wanted him to :p
Lorenzo has been in zer0 for a very long time, and did a great staff job, and helped where he was needed. From coordinating the Citadel till hosting events, Lorenzo did his best to improve Zer0 PvM
Legendary doesn't even cut it. This guy is more than that. He's been leading the zer0 wbs fc for as long as anyone can remember. He's always around. One of the most active staff members and since late, co leader. He's always teaching members how to Raids and will take just about anyone. Unbiased and friendly. BRB has definately earned his place up here.

Q: Method is returning false but conditions match and should be returning true i currently have some User objects that have a type enum enumUserType but one of them has a enumUserType of LIBRARIAN. The users who are librarian need to have special privileges, in this case it will have a different menu it can access.
What i have tried to do loop through an array list of users and if that user has a usertype of librarian then return true, if it is something else return false.
After some testing it seems like that even if just one of my objects is librarian then entire method will return true. Then i cant lead the different usertypes down the different menu paths.
My first object isnt a librarian but the second one is.
public boolean verifyLibrarian() {
    for (User s : users) {
    //if just one of my objects is librarian it will return true.
        if (s.getUserType() == User.enumUserType.LIBRARIAN) {

                librarianMenuEditBook();

         }
    }

Let me know if you need more information.
Thank you kindly for you help.

A: You need to put the return false outside the loop to check against every user before returning false
for (User s : users) {
//if just one of my objects is librarian it will return true.
    if (s.getUserType() == User.enumUserType.LIBRARIAN) {
        return true;
     }
}
return false;

Or use anyMatch
return users.stream().anyMatch(s -> s.getUserType() == User.enumUserType.LIBRARIAN);

If your intention was to really throw an exception if no user was found (currently that's unreachable in your code, you'd throw that instead of returning
public boolean verifyLibrarian() {
    for (User s : users) {
    //if just one of my objects is librarian it will return true.
        if (s.getUserType() == User.enumUserType.LIBRARIAN) {
            return true;
        }
    }
    throw new IllegalArgumentException("Username or password is incorrect");
}

Or in a stream
users.stream()
      .filter(s -> s.getUserType() == User.enumUserType.LIBRARIAN)
      .findAny()
      .orElseThrow(() -> new IllegalArgumentException("Username or password is incorrect"));

Economics Market Trends Markets
Cattle Sale Timing Discussed at Orkney Meeting
SCOTLAND, UK - The vexing question of when best to sell cattle, and in particular weaned calves, was a major talking point at the recent monitor farm meeting in Orkney.
Millburn Farm, run by Steven Sandison, is in the parish of Harray, on Orkney's mainland. The farm extends to 230acres while a further 100 acres is taken on a seasonal let basis. The farm is mostly comprised of permanent and temporary grass and stocking consists of 100 Simmental cross and Saler cross cows with Saler, Simmental and Charolais bulls all being used.
The Sandisons have always sold calves at weaning, wintering only the replacement heifers and the dry cows. This is very unusual in Orkney where most cattle are wintered and sold either as forward stores or taken through to finishing.
Uniquely, the calves from Millburn are sold privately to two local buyers making it possible to follow 24 Charolais heifer calves through to eventual sale. Eight of the calves are sold in the spring with the rest sold in September.
"By calculating gross margins for these batches of cattle it was possible to determine what the physical and financial performance of these cattle would have needed to be in order to ensure a return to the farmer," said monitor farm facilitator, George Baikie of SAC Consulting, part of SRUC.
The calves produced at Millburn compared well with the average figures for Scotland published in the "Cattle and Sheep Enterprise Costings" produced each year by QMS.
The total output per cow for Millburn at £541 was just above the average which, when set against low variable costs of £202, placed Millburn comfortably into the average bracket at £339/cow.
After the calves left Millburn the costs of wintering meant that the heifers sold in the spring actually lost £43. To have broken even they would have needed to have been 20kg heavier at £2.10/kg. It was pointed out, however, that in reality these were the smallest of the calves and the sale date chosen may not have been the most lucrative last spring.
The remaining 16 heifers were all were sold in September and realised a positive margin of £167/hd. The rise in the general prices for stock will have contributed to this but analysis shows that even if the market had been static they would have realised a margin of over £100/hd.
Three key messages were taken from the meeting, said Mr Baikie. "The first was that overwintering cattle is an expensive business and that the performance of the cattle is critical in this period if a positive margin is to be made.
"Secondly, while cattle should be able to perform well at grass, the margins are still tight and care needs to be taken to ensure margins remain positive.
"Finally, it is easy to ignore the effect of the general market, but the fluctuations within this must be factored into financial determinations with regards to output. However, this should not be used as an excuse to disguise poor physical performance."
The Orkney monitor farm is funded by Skills Development Scotland, run by NFU Scotland and supported by Quality Meat Scotland. Full reports of each meeting can be found by visiting www.qmscotland.co.uk

"North Star of WFUV's Sound," Rita Houston, Dies Aged 59
Rita Houston, WFUV program director and iconic DJ to generations of listeners passed away this morning, December 15. Houston had been battling cancer for six years. "Her courage and resolve were an inspiration," WFUV General Manager Chuck Singleton said in a statement. "Cancer or no cancer, she gave her all every day — to her dear Laura and their family, to her friends and colleagues, to WFUV and our listeners, and to artists and music lovers everywhere."
Rita Houston hosting Billy Bragg/City Winery's Mother's Day Special – Screengrab by ABS's Phil Solomonson
Continuing, "Rita was the north star of WFUV's sound and its public service, guiding the station's musical direction for decades. She was a New York original, a trailblazing woman of exceptional talent who shaped a unique style behind the microphone — informed and informal, intimate, warm, genuine. But also, one of tremendous joy."
Houston was recognized by Mayor Bill de Blasio last year when she celebrated her 25th year at WFUV, congratulating her for the "indelible mark" she made on New York as the nexus of creative expression: "bringing joy to listeners throughout the five boroughs, providing a platform for new talent that deserves to be heard, and enriching the cultural vitality of our city."
Singleton concluded, "Together, we will remember and celebrate her in the weeks ahead. But right now, Rita, we see you on that stage with Sharon Jones, Bowie, Prince, and especially your beloved John Prine, emceeing the most heavenly edition of Holiday Cheer for FUV."
Houston leaves behind wife and WFUV's Laura Fedele, and her family. Rest in peace, Rita.

Home Tennis Tennis Serving Rules: How to Serve Properly?
Tennis Serving Rules: How to Serve Properly?
Beth Hein
Serves are the heart of the tennis game. It has a tremendous potential to help the tennis player win over their opponent in the game. But the tennis serve can be a powerful weapon, only when the game technique is correct. Incorrect tennis serves can more be a liability rather than an asset. To learn the correct tennis serving technique, more than simply serving tips, the players have to practice tremendously and master their serving skills.
The Serve
Step by Step Progression of Learning to Serve Properly
Following a Proper Stance
Choosing the Correct Grip
Key Tips to Master the Tennis Serve
Tennis Serving Rules
Before the service, the server has to stand at rest, behind the baseline. They then release the ball by hand and hit the ball with their racquet before it touches the ground. The player should toss the ball with one hand and use the racket with the other hand. In a standard game, the server serves from the right half of the court and serve the ball over the net, at the diagonally opposite direction for the receiver to return it. This is true in a tie-break game as well.
Check out: Best Tennis Racquets for Beginners
The following technical progression is mandatory to build a proper tennis serve. It can also be of use to correct the existing serve technique.
A proper stance before attempting the tennis serve is to stand at the right stance. The feet should be positioned in such a way that the front foot points towards the net post and the left foot lies parallel to the baseline.
Make sure that the toes are aligned towards the heel of the right foot, to stay stable in all the directions. This basic stance can be adjusted depending on the direction in which one is serving. There are generally two types of stances on the serve, namely the pin-point stance and the platform stance.
In the platform stance, the feet stay in the same position throughout the entire service motion. The player only bends their knees and tilt their body to push themselves upwards to complete the serve. In the pinpoint stance, the player initiates the serve from the platform stance, and they toss the ball up, they bring the back foot closer to the front one and push towards the ball upwards.
The clue for a successful service is a continental grip. Players should grip their racquet like a hammer and hold it with its edge perpendicular to the ground. Place the index finger of the other hand between the palm and the fingers of the hand with which you are holding the racquet. If it fits in the valley, then you are using the racquet with an ideal grip size. The way one holds the racquet determines the effectiveness of their serve.
Check out: Best Tennis Overgrips
The tennis serve becomes quite easy to master with these simple and proven tips from professionals.
Learn to accelerate the racquet in a relaxed and loose way, so that it gives more power to the ball than tensing the body and arm.
Players can gain more power by decelerating the body before contact rather than rotating their body through contact.
Tennis players should swing up towards the ball, and should not swing down.
Players should swing the racquet initially in a different direction, rather than in the direction of the target.
Players should master the fundamentals of the serving technique which is crucial in helping them to learn to hit appropriately with great power and consistency.
A coin toss generally determines which player serves in the tennis game first. The winner of the toss chooses the side they wish to play on and get the chance to serve first as well. After the first serve, the two sides alternate serving through the rest of the game. When the score is even, the player has to serve from the right side of the court into the left side of the opponent's court. And when the score is odd, the player serves from the left side of the court into the right side of the opponent's court.
The server has to serve from behind the baseline. The player gets two chances to make a proper service at each point. If the player doesn't make a proper service on neither of them, it then counts as a double fault and the point goes to the opponent. Each game in the tennis match starts with the server on the right side of the court and serve cross-court, into the diagonal service box.
If the player fails to hit in the first serve, they get another chance to take the ball to the opponent's court. The rules about the second serve are as follows.
The Serve is a Let if,
The served ball touches the net, band, or strap and lands in the court.
The served ball touches the net, band, and strap and also touches the receiver or their clothes before hitting the ground.
The ball is served when the opponent is not ready.
The let serve doesn't count and the server has to serve again.
The Serve is a Fault if,
The server misses the ball while they try to hit it.
The ball touches a permanent fixture, net post or singles stick before hitting the ground.
The served ball touches anything that the server is wearing or their partner.
Foot Fault
During the service motion, the player should not change their position by walking or running, though slight movements are not allowed.
The player should not touch the court of the baseline with their foot.
The player should not touch the imaginary extension of the center mark with their foot.
Though we have discussed only overhead serves, underhand serves are allowed as well. Some players also use them occasionally to surprise their opponents. The tennis game serves are the most controlled shots in the game. It is a combination of both a physical and a mental motion which when struck right helps the player to move towards their winning paradigm.

Fatburger parent Fog Cutter acquires Buffalo's Café
Lisa Jennings | Dec 06, 2011
Fog Cutter Capital Group Inc., parent to the Fatburger chain, has acquired the 26-unit, casual-dining chicken wing chain Buffalo's Café, one of several new concepts the group plans to add to its franchise portfolio.
Andrew Wiederhorn, Fog Cutter's chairman and chief executive, said the move would allow the group's franchise development subsidiary to offer a new concept to its base of existing brands, both domestically and internationally.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed. The Fog Cutter subsidiary will operate Buffalo's Café as an all-franchised brand under Buffalo's Franchise Concepts Inc.
Based in Atlanta, Buffalo's Café was founded in 1985 and specializes in Buffalo-style chicken wings and tenders, as well as salads, wraps, burgers, ribs and other American classics.
The chain was sold by an unnamed private investor in Los Angeles. The investor had been the landlord for what was a company-owned location, and later acquired the entire Buffalo's chain. The investor retained one Buffalo's unit in Loganville, Ga., which he will operate as a franchisee.
Buffalo's Café has 20 domestic units in Georgia, Texas, Florida, North Carolina and Indiana, as well as six international locations: five in Kuwait, and one in Saudi Arabia.
Wiederhorn said Fog Cutter is also developing an express variant of the concept for smaller footprint locations. The express menu would focus on wings, sandwich wraps, soups and salads, he said.
The first express location is scheduled to open in 2012, with both domestic and international locations planned.
Wiederhorn said Fog Cutter is also in the process of acquiring franchising rights to another California bistro brand that will be grown overseas; he declined to reveal the brand.
In addition, Fog Cutter is looking at another cigar-lounge luxury concept that will also be an international franchise option.
Fog Cutter acquired the now 112-unit Fatburger concept in 2003.
Two of Fatburger Corp.'s corporate operating subsidiaries filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2009, and 25 locations operated by the two entities were sold at auction earlier this year to franchisees. Those entities in bankruptcy are now completing the Chapter 7 process, allowing Fatburger to emerge as another almost all-franchised brand, although Fog Cutter operates two corporate locations.
Meanwhile, the chain has been growing aggressively.
Wiederhorn said 24 franchised Fatburger locations have opened this year, with one more planned before the end of 2011. Another 40 units are in the pipeline for 2012, including about a dozen in Canada, 10 in the United States and the rest in various international locations, mostly in the Middle East.
This week, the brand debuted in Seoul, South Korea, with the opening of the first franchise location there by SW Group Inc., which plans to open a total of 10 Fatburgers in that country.
Fatburger has also signed deals with franchise partners in the new markets of Lebanon, Jordan and Pakistan, Wiederhorn said.
The Fatburger brand has been particularly popular in the Middle East, with units there showing average unit volumes about three times those in the U.S., he added.
That's in part why Fog Cutter was drawn to Buffalo's Café as an opportunity to bring another concept to a franchise base hungry for American food.
"Chicken wings are hot," Wiederhorn said. "It's an opportunity to distribute another product line that's complementary to burgers."
In addition, Buffalo's Café already has locations in the Middle East that are performing well. "We have a leg up," he said.

Q: II have a running stream of integers, how can I take print the sum of last k element elements from this stream at any point of time I have a running stream of integers, how can I print the sum of last k elements from this stream at any point in time.
For example:
1,2,3,7,8,0,1,4,5 ....
k = 4
answer = 0 + 1 + 4 + 5  = 10

what would be the optimal data structure or approach?

A: You probably want a double ended queue (deque).  Push new elements into one end until you have k, then pop them off the other as you push new ones on.
If you want to avoid iterating over the deque each time you need a sum, you can just keep a running total as a single int; subtract whatever you pop and add whatever you push.
