After all, UConn (15-5, 7-3) has too much at stake for the 6-foot-11 Villanueva to feel sorry for himself, to give faceless voters the satisfaction of cutting short his contributions.
And yet, for 33 minutes Monday night, Villanueva never played such inspired basketball.
In the biggest game of the season, Villanueva showed No. 8 Syracuse and the rest of the country why the NBA whispers are heating up again. In perhaps the finest game of his career, Villanueva lifted No. 19 UConn to a 74-66 victory over the Orange before 27,651 fans at the Carrier Dome.
The frenetic Villanueva barnstormed Syracuse for 10 rebounds and a season-high 21 points on 9-of-13 shooting. He scored on putbacks. He dunked in traffic. He spun through the lane, ducking and dodging defenders, on his way to circus shots under the basket.
After scoring just three points in UConn's 68-46 victory over St. John's last weekend, Villanueva was all but unstoppable at Syracuse (21-3, 8-2). And the Huskies, who trailed 61-56 with eight minutes to play, never needed him more.
"Obviously, he had shots that I hadn't seen before, nor do I expect to see again," Calhoun added with a grin. "Some I like. Some I don't like. Regardless, he can score points."
But with seven games left in the regular season, Villanueva's No. 1 adversary continues to be consistency. The same player who has seven double-doubles this season also has nine games in single digits.
Villanueva insists he is trying to work harder and stay focused longer. Fortunately for Villanueva, Calhoun believes in him, the same way Calhoun used to believe in Ben Gordon, Caron Butler and Richard Hamilton.
Clearly, these Huskies will go as far as Villanueva - and his burgeoning confidence - will take them. But even on his best nights, Villanueva knows he can't do it alone.
"One thing that's huge is our character: We slip and we fall, but we get back up," Villanueva said Monday night. "This was a huge, huge, huge game for us. We just have to carry this momentum into the next game."
Unfortunately for the Huskies, that's easier said than done.
UConn's next game is Sunday against No. 2 North Carolina, a team that many believe is the best in the country. But at this point, after shocking Syracuse as 4�-point underdogs, the Huskies will take their chances with the Tar Heels, if only because Villanueva is on their side.
"Charlie was great (Monday). He was awesome," said UConn freshman Rudy Gay, who wasn't so bad himself with 18 points in his Carrier Dome debut. "We knew we were going to win. We had to win, basically. We felt there was no way we should lose this game."
In fairness, a case can be made that Marcus Williams is the most important player on this team, the player the Huskies can least afford to lose.
Still, without Villanueva's heroics Monday night, UConn was flying home with a loss.
Consider: Williams finished with a less than sparkling six assists and six turnovers at Syracuse, with nine points on 3-of-11 shooting. The Huskies also botched several fastbreaks on his watch, a reflection of Williams as the point guard.
For a UConn program that has built its reputation on running, the Huskies have struggled with spacing and touch-passing all season.
Granted, Williams has demonstrated he can deliver the ball better than anyone else on this roster.
But without someone to finish those plays - someone like Charlie Villanueva at the Carrier Dome - slick penetration and no-look passes don't mean much.
Kind of like midseason rankings.

ACTION ALERT! Thank Key Senators and Representatives for Their Work on Carbon Neutrality of Biomass!
Congress included language to help provide regulatory clarity for the carbon neutrality of forest biomass energy in the final FY 2017 appropriations bill. This is an important step forward for paper and wood products manufactures and our entire supply chain. Our industry is the nation's leading producer and user of biomass energy, with about two-thirds of our energy coming from biomass.
The amendment calls on federal agencies to produce clear, science-based policies that reflect the carbon neutrality of forest bioenergy and recognize biomass as a renewable energy source. AF&PA and industry allies have sought this recognition since the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) changed its policy on biomass beginning in 2010. With passage of the legislation, we are beginning to work with EPA and the departments of Agriculture and Energy to implement the legislation. But first, we need to reach out and thank the many Senators and Representatives who worked closely with us to accomplish this important achievement.
The following key Senators and Representatives helped us reach this milestone by advocating in support of industry-supported biomass amendments. We need your help to thank them! If you know of a Senator or Representative that was helpful, but not on the list, please feel free to also thank them.
Please complete the form below to thank these Members for their support for regulatory certainty for biomass and ask that they urge EPA to act to resolve the issue.

Trees for the Year 2019
The Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF) as the custodian of forestry in South Africa, highlight two specific trees (one common and one rare species) every year during Arbor Week to help increase public awareness of the 2000 indigenous tree species in South Africa.
Common Tree Rare Tree
Scientific Name Sclerocarya birrea Philenoptera violacea
Leaves, fruits and stem of of Sclerocarya birrea.
Leaves of Philenoptera violacea
Common name(s) marula (Eng.); morula (Northern Sotho); mufula (Tshivenda); ukanyi (Tsonga); Mufuna, Mupfura, Mushomo (Shona); Umganu (Ndebele)b apple-leaf (Eng.); appelblaar (Afr.); umBhandu, umPhanda, isiHomohomo (isiZulu)
Family Anacardiaceae Fabaceae
Origin Southern Africa, Madagascar and Ethopia Madagascar and southern Africa
Description The marula is a medium-sized to large deciduous tree with an erect trunk and rounded crown. Male and female flowers are borne on separate trees. It is one of the plants that played a role in feeding people in ancient times. Philenoptera violacea is a hardy, small to medium sized, upright, semi-deciduous tree up to 15 m tall with a wide-spreading, dense and rounded crown that has beautiful pale lavender-grey bark.
Leaves Leaves alternate, crowded near the ends of branches, imparipinnate with 7-15 pairs of ovate to elliptic leaflets and a terminal leaflet, dark green above, paler bluish-green below. Leaves are large (70-200 mm long), unevenly compound with 1-3 pairs of opposite leaflets and one terminal leaflet, hard and rough in texture, shiny or glossy above and grey-green beneath, with prominent midribs. The terminal leaflets are always much bigger than the lower leaflets (about 180 mm long and 90 mm broad).
Fruit Fruits fleshy, plum-like, pale green turning yellow when ripe. The fruit is edible and highly valued by animals and people. Fruit is a flat pod, non-splitting, relatively large (about 120 x 25 mm), hairless, tapering at both ends, persisting on the tree during winter, usually 2- or 3-seeded
Fruiting time September to November September to December
The powdered bark is used to treat pregnant women to determine the gender of an unborn baby. If a pregnant woman wishes to have a girl, she will take a preparation from the female plant and for a boy she will use the male plant.
A decoction of the bark treats dysentery, diarrhoea, rheumatism and has a prophylactic effect against malaria.
The bark is an excellent remedy for haemorrhoids. Roots and bark are also used as laxatives. A drink made from marula leaves is used for the treatment of gonorrhea.
In the former homeland of Venda it was a criminal offence to cut down a living tree of this species. The wood is used for furniture, panelling, flooring, carvings and household utensils like spoons. The inner layer of bark makes a strong rope. Drums and yokes for certain animals are made from the wood of this tree. In Namibia some people use the wood for sledges. Boats are also made from the trunk. Red-brown dye can be produced from the fresh skin of the bark. The gum, which is rich in tannin, is mixed with soot and used as ink.
Most parts of the plant are used to treat diarrhoea.
The roots are used for gastro-intestinal problems; powdered root-bark is used to treat colds and snakebite.
Root infusions are commonly used as part of a hookworm remedy.
Propagation This tree grows easily from seed sown in washed river sand in spring. Propagation is by seed. The seeds must first be soaked in hot water, left overnight and planted the next morning in seedling trays.

Thank you so much for doing such an amazing job on the new Ice House in Hailey. Without you I doubt this job would ever have been done either on time or anywhere near budget.
I also appreciate your understanding in allowing the volunteers use of your equipment. I have some idea of the challenges this project presented. I know it wasn't easy.
Thanks again for completing a major community asset—and for doing so gracefully and selflessly. You're the man.
I want to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation for your design and construction, vision and leadership to build 811 Alpine Lane. It's been my pleasure to get to know you professionally and personally over the last three years to remodel the Walnut house, and build Alpine Lane from the ground up. Along the way, it's been great to know your life partner Trish. She is not only a great wife, mother, grandmother, Wilson Co. C.F.O., but also a true "civic leader" in her philanthropic initiatives for Sun Valley/Ketchum.
Building a great family culture that will survive both you and Trish with your wonderful daughters Katie and Regan.
What it means to have your name on the door of your company, in the close-knit community where you live.
That even in the depths of the greatest housing recession since the Great Depression, the best builders are always busy.
That with local prosperity as an entrepreneur, your civic and philanthropic leadership is even more admired and respected. Further, this leadership enhances the Wilson Company brand and sustainability of your business model while doing good for all.
That at the core of the entrepreneurial leadership, it all about problem solving day in and day out. It is with great pride that I have pointed to Dave Wilson's example for my own children, as one of the best problem solvers I have worked with.
The completion of Alpine Lane brings to a successful conclusion, one of the most enjoyable professional collaborations of my life. I include Jimmy and Barclay on our creative team to realize our shared dream to build a home that was respectful to Knob Hill and the larger Ketchum community.

The European Commission is to make public data available, irrespective of whether it is for commercial or non-commercial use, and it is calling national governments to follow this example. The term 'public data' covers all the information that public bodies in the European Union produce, collect or pay for. This could include geographical data, statistics, meteorological data, data from publicly funded research projects, and digitised books from libraries.
'Open' public data can be readily and easily consulted and re-used by anyone with access to a computer. In the European Commission's view 'readily accessible' means much more than the mere absence of a restriction of access to the public. Access and re-use of data can be made difficult by public authorities - often unintentionally - because of a number of barriers like a lack of information that certain data actually exists and is available; a lack of clarity of which public authority holds the data; a lack of clarity about the terms of re-use; data which is made available only in formats that are difficult or expensive to use; complicated licensing procedures or prohibitive fees; exclusive re-use agreements with one commercial actor or re-use restricted to a government-owned company. Barriers such as these mean that public data cannot be called truly open data.
Data can be integrated into new products and services, which we use on a daily basis, such as car navigation systems, weather forecasts or other useful "apps" on smart phones. Opportunities for re-use have multiplied in recent years as technological developments have spurred advances in data production as well as data analysis, processing and exploitation.
Public sector bodies which have drastically cut their charges for re-use have seen the number of re-users increase by between 1,000% and 10,000%. For instance, in the case of Danish Enterprise and Construction Authority (DECA) the number of re-users went up by 10,000% leading to a re-use market growth of 1,000% over eight years. The additional tax revenue for the government is estimated to be four times the reduction in income from fees.
The lowering of charges brings in new types of users, particularly SMEs. For example SIRCOM (the Communication Service of the French Ministry for the Economy, Finance and Industry) has been collecting data on fuel prices in France regularly. It introduced a pricing and licensing model for re-use of this data in 2009 (re-use was unregulated before). NAVX, a venture capital company active in the field of location-based services, acquired a licence for commercial re-use right from the very start.
NAVX enriches public data in three ways as it filters out double entries and fuel stations that have gone bankrupt, it adds data for the fuel stations that are exempt from public reporting obligations, and it improves the precision of the geo-localisation. The enriched data is then used for the company's own GPS and smart phone applications and sold to NAVX's sub-licensees. NAVX focuses on both the B2C business of selling its applications directly to end-users and on the B2B2C business of providing its enriched location-based content to GPS manufacturers, geo-information companies and mobile operators. Building on its strong home market in France, NAVX has been able to expand further to cover at least eight different European countries.
The market size and growth of the geographic information sector shows the potential of public data as an engine for job creation. The German market for geo-information in 2007 was estimated at EUR1.4 billion, a 50 % increase since 20001. In the Netherlands, the geo-sector accounted for 15,000 full-time employees in 2008. Other areas such as meteorological data, legal information and business information also form the basis of steadily growing markets.
A recent study estimates the total market for public sector information in 2008 at EUR28 billion across the EU. The same study indicates that the overall economic gains from further opening up public sector information by allowing easy access are in the order of EUR40 billion a year for the EU27. However, the total direct and indirect economic gains from easier PSI re-use across the whole EU27 economy would be in the order of EUR140 billion annually.
The EU policy considers information prepared as part of a public sector organisations' public task has been gathered at the taxpayers' expense and for their ultimate benefit. As such, it is a public good and the taxpayer has a right to access and re-use that information.
However, it is also reasonable sometimes to expect the re-user, not the taxpayer, to cover the costs of making the information available for re-use. In some special cases some of the costs of gathering that information may therefore be recovered.
The revised Directive is likely to come into effect in 2013. Member States will then have eighteen months to implement it into their national legislation. There is, however, nothing to prevent any public body adopting before this date the types of improvements to access and use which the Directive introduces. Those Member States that have already adopted more open policies on this issue are already benefitting from the growth of new services in this area.
A number of countries, regions and municipalities have already created portal websites on accessible data. These include http://opendata.paris.fr.; www.dati.piemonte.it; www.data.gov.uk, www.data.gouv.fr; www.data.overheid.nl.
In 2012, the Commission will set up an Internet portal for its own data. It proposes that other EU institutions, bodies and agencies make their information accessible through this portal, making it the single access point to EU information.
In 2013, the Commission will establish a pan-European portal, bringing together data from different Member States as well as from the European institutions.
The Commission funds research and will use different instruments to test and promote the development of innovative solutions, and to ensure the widest possible uptake of open data.


I'm... I'm... I'm on your list?
I'll pay you... in penguins?
Can you draw me, please?
I will add you and everyone else to my drawing list.
Em... heheh... could you... like... do me too?
How could I resist the pleading GIFs? I will add you to the list!
Any customization/editing (like eyes of different colors)?
I'm glad you already drew me, otherwise I would be begging you to draw me. reads list You almost have the Aetherlight census there!
I'm not going to lie, I want to be drawn, but wanting and being drawn are two separate things. I'll cancel (don't draw me), and when the dust settles and your list shortens, I might just ask to be put back.
Anyhoo, can you refer me to any good artists? I was waiting for @Scarlett_Darkhall's, but she has stuff to do, sadly. Any good artists other than yourself that you can recommend?
Here are some recommendations, but really, every artist on here is sooo talented, so this is kind of my pointing out some artists you may not have seen!
Ilayne Merespark! Here's some of her art! 1 / 2 / 3 Etc.
And here are some more names: Ariella Newheart, Shelara Purplematch, Emily Purplebottle, M Rustquill, Alex Amberblast, Skybie Jumpdust, Snoelle Fitzshine, and Cinnar Ratchetloop!
Haha, you're welcome! Don't mean to add any more pressure. I know how it feels to have a crazy list.
I believe her and her sister are a bit busy at the moment, which is mainly the reason why Scarlett hasn't drawn me yet.
Yessssss... Now her, I am interested in.
I believe you are on the list, @Emily_Purplebottle!
Or were you referring to something else?
I don't believe I was the first, but thanks for the reconization!
I think there are other better than me.
Oh my goodness, stoooooooppp!!! You are SOOO AMAZING!! You're art is so inspirational to me!
You are amazing in your own GOD-blessed way Missy! You just stay awesome you hear me?
@Hanna_Brassheart may I see the picture?
Your really good at this. What happened?
Thank you, Emman! To quote the ever-increasingly popular vernacular: "Life happened."
I think I'm done with Shadowfire V.1, and I'm trying to decide whether or not to color my Unspoken fan art. Coloring scares me since you can't really erase mistakes, so I've been putting it off.
Would you like me to draw you?
OK. As soon as I put my looks on this page. It is on another device and I won't have it until later on today.
So Hanna when will you do me?


Make these sinfully rich and decadent double chocolate almond cookies. Totally worth the splurge for a self-proclaimed chocoholic!
Around here, we've really cut back on eating sweets. But, when I made these double chocolate almond cookies for my son and his college friends, I knew I was in trouble! Of course, I had to sample at least one to make sure they were tasty. That's a mom's duty, right?
Believe me when I say these cookies are love (hate?) at first bite.
Before I share the recipe, I must warn you. The smell coming from your oven will have you hooked (kind of like when you walk past Cookies by George at the mall). Take one bite and it's all over from there. Kind of like my sweet potato brownie bites!
In a large bowl, beat together butter and both sugars until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla, and mix well.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Gradually beat into butter mixture.
Stir in almonds and chocolate chips until well combined.
Roll into balls (I used a small ice cream scoop to ration them out) and place at least a couple inches apart on the baking sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes (depending on size). They will be a bit firm on the top, but soft in the center (don't over bake, as you want them ooey gooey on the inside). Remove from oven and let sit for a couple minutes before you transfer them to the cooling rack.

Pin these double chocolate almond cookies for later!
Are you looking for more delicious cookie recipes?
These look incredible! Did you say you had a son in college?? I had to reread that several times. I do not believe you, girl!
Believe me, I have a hard time wrapping my mind around it too. Watch it, they're grown before you know it!
Oh boy. Chocolate, almonds – I had to pin, but I'm afraid to make! I know they won't last long around me!!!
Oh yum! Now I want cookies! Off to pin! Thanks for sharing!
These look soooo good! I love almonds!
Also, how do you have a son in college? You are so young looking! Beautiful!
These look delicious – nice and thick! I'll have to try them.
Oh yeah, you had me at the first photo – yummmmm!
I LOVE chocolate and almond together, these look fabulous!
I don't do a lot of baking, but I just might make THESE. That picture is way too enticing!

Reimbursement and Compensation: Boliviana de Aviacion
It's frustrating when a flight delay or cancellation causes havoc with your travels. If your flight was departing from a European airport, we have good news for you — you could be owed up to US$700 (€600) per person in Boliviana de Aviacion compensation. That's because of an EU law which allows passengers to claim flight cancellation or Boliviana de Aviacion delay compensation. AirHelp can quickly confirm what you're owed — and make claiming it off Boliviana de Aviacion simple!
Boliviana de Aviacion Flight Delay Compensation
Any Boliviana de Aviacion flight departing from a European airport must conform to the European law which protects air passengers in the event of flight delays.
This law, known as EC 261, says that airlines must provide passengers with food, drink, and access to communication when they're delayed. They must also offer accommodation and replacement flights if necessary.
But more than that, if Boliviana de Aviacion is responsible for the flight delay, the law says that they must compensate passengers when the flight is delayed by 3 hours or more. All the details are included in our guide to flight delay compensation.
So if you arrive at your destination over 3 hours late, it's always worth checking if you're owed Boliviana de Aviacion flight delay compensation. Don't miss out on up to US$700 per person.
We make claiming compensation for Boliviana de Aviacion flight delays as easy as possible. Our compensation check tool, together with our air passenger rights experts, will confirm your delay time, and make sure there are no extraordinary circumstances which impact your eligibility. You can usually claim for flights from as far back as 3 years ago.
Delayed or canceled flight with Boliviana de Aviacion? Find out if you're owed up to US$700 in compensation
Boliviana de Aviacion Canceled Flight Compensation
In Europe, EC 261 protects all passengers in the event of flight cancellations, especially last-minute flight cancellations.
If there's any Boliviana de Aviacion flight cancellation less than 14 days before the flight was due to depart from a European airport, passengers may be eligible for Boliviana de Aviacion flight cancellation compensation, up to US$700 per person.
That's unless there were some kind of extraordinary circumstances which gave Boliviana de Aviacion no choice but to cancel the flight. The law accepts that airlines should only pay compensation when they are at fault — but they must still ensure passengers reach their final destination or get a full refund for the flight.
Airlines like Boliviana de Aviacion also don't need to pay compensation if they're able to offer an alternative flight that arrives at a very similar time to the original one. The specific time limits are included in our flight cancellation compensation guide.
Flight Compensation and Air Passenger Rights
Even though Boliviana de Aviacion is not a European airline, they always comply with European laws every time they depart from a European airport. That means passengers flying out of a European airport with Boliviana de Aviacion are protected by EC 261, one of the world's most comprehensive air passenger rights laws.
This gives passengers the right to claim flight delay compensation, Boliviana de Aviacion cancellation compensation, or overbooking compensation if Boliviana de Aviacion is responsible for the issue.
Unfortunately, the same protections don't apply for flights going the other way. Boliviana de Aviacion passengers who land in the EU are not covered by EC 261 if the departure airport is outside the EU. For these flights, you'll need to check what other air passenger rights apply.

This is quick to make because you use a ready prepared stir-fry veg pack and quorn pieces are quicker to cook that real beef. The chilli is the important ingredient, without them it would be really bland. I prefer it with noodles rather than rice. Excellent weight loss food.
Tom, I would love to try this. What kind of beef do you use? Also, the piri piri, what chilis do you recommend? It looks delicious and I have a recipe in an ethnic cookbook. Unfortunately, i cannot find it.


Page 92 was a Sunday and being the first Sunday of the month, I had the privilege of preaching this morning at the North Wayne Mennonite Church. I went to bed early last night, and it seemed like I slept better than I have in a while, so I was awake early enough to spend some time with God in a continual refinement of the sermon before heading to Dowagiac to share it. This morning's message continued a series I've been doing on "Living As the Lord's Servant". As we've looked a different Bible characters who are described as a servant of the Lord, today we spent time considering the life of Hannah.
God says through the writer of Hebrews, that without faith it is impossible to please God. Faith requires that we believe God exists and that we believe He rewards those who diligently seek Him. There are many characteristics we could examine and learn from in the life of Hannah, but none are as important as the example of living with faith. Here are the key lessons from the message, "Living With FAITH".
Living with Focus: When we first meet up with Hannah in the opening chapter of 1 Samuel, we find her in a situation with many distractions. It is in the midst of these distractions that she maintains her focus in believing God exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him. Because of her focus, she never wavers from her request for a son. I believe that her crying out to God for this request to be granted, shows a belief that God could deliver. Unfortunately, as we set out to live a life of faith, many of us lose our focus as the enemy sends mockers and distractions our way. When we don't get what we ask for when we ask for it, the enemy begins to plant doubt in our mind and our focus begins to waver. Living with faith means that we use our faith to keep focused on the things of God no matter what.
Living with Acceptance: Hannah also appears to do something that many of us try — she makes a deal with God. The truth is, however, these deals are generally one-sided — "God, if you do such and such I promise to do this or that." I'm not so sure that is really what Hannah was doing, but regardless of the cause, she does make a promise to God that the son He would give her would be given back to Him. We have to be very careful what we promise God. I don't believe He is a party to our bargains, but He does take our promises seriously. Living with faith says that we accept the consequences of keeping our promises to God. When your read about Eli and his sons, and realize these are the people Hannah is leaving her son with, you might be tempted to think she had just cause to go back on her word. Not Hannah. Her life of faith accepted that God would somehow honor the results of her honoring her vow.
Living with Insight: After Hannah drops her son, Samuel, off to live with the priest and serve the Lord, we find a beautiful prayer of her recorded in the second chapter of 1 Samuel. In this prayer we read of great insight that God has given her through her faithful obedience. Living with faith in a God who exists and rewards those who earnestly seek Him, fills us with an insight into the very nature and character of God. If you want to have a greater understanding of God, then ask Him to increase your faith. If you want insight into the nature of God, then choose each day to walk by faith.
Living with Trust: Woven through this life of faith, is an element of trust. Even when it would appear our course of action makes no sense, when we are pursuing God, faith leads us trust Him. Often times we choose not to live by faith because we don't trust God to truly care for us. We fail to accept the consequences of our promises because we don't trust God to work all things together for our good. Hannah had made a promise to God and in spite of circumstances that would cause many of us to say she had reason to change her mind, she continued to trust God to be faithful in response to her faith.
Living with Hope: Living with faith should always produce an expected outcome that we also live with hope. The Bible says that faith is the assurance of things hoped for. When faith is our way of life, we have an assurance of God's presence that should fill us with an overflowing hope. Hannah's hope is seen in her request. It is seen in her interaction with Eli when God's promise is given. It is seen in her willingness to leave Samuel with Eli. And it is seen throughout her prayer that is written down for us to read. As you look at the life of her son, Samuel, I believe that her hope was far greater than cultural validation of being a mom. Her hope, which was fulfilled, was for a son who would be a blessing to a nation. When we live with hope, we would do well to always remember that our hope in Jesus is meant to be for the people around us in the same way that it is for us.
After sharing the sermon and the worship gathering concluded, we headed home with a stop for lunch on the way. Once we had changed clothes, we threw some things in the truck and set off on a little sightseeing adventure. I didn't have time to do much with photos today, but today's photo is a sunset scene on a cloudy evening. Like most things in life, balance is the key when it comes to clouds and sunset photos. Too many clouds and the sunset really isn't visible. No clouds and you miss out on so many of the beautiful colors that can be found in a sunset in a sparsely clouded sky.
Early to bed and early to rise may not make a person healthy, wealthy, and wise but it sure makes me feel better when I need to be up early.
Preaching is a privilege I don't take lightly.
God's Word is given to us for instruction in the way we should live. The characters in the Bible are real people that we can learn real life lessons from.
If I want to please God, I must have a growing faith.
My faith grows when I stay focused on God.
My faith grows when I accept God's authority over my promises.
My faith grows when I listen to the insight I receive from God's Word.
My faith grows when my trust in God grows.
My faith grows when I fully put my hope in Him.
The greatest treasure that God gives us besides Himself and the salvation that is ours through Jesus, is the people He brings into our life and family should be at the top of that list.

Brokers have been lining up to praise infection control company Tristel and predict great things for the stock, especially given the prospect of a spike in global sales.
The company, based in the horseracing town of Newmarket, is rated a thoroughbred worth backing by analysts at finnCap and Equity Development. Under chief executive Paul Swinney, Tristel has been mapping significant growth in new territories as hospitals and other healthcare facilities warm to its bug-busting prducts.
The analysts lifted their heads above the parapet after Tristel posted an upbeat trading update for the year to June 30.
Tristel told the UK's London Stock Exchange that it will record turnover in excess of £20 million (2016: £17.1m) and pre-tax profit (before share-based payments) of at least £4m (£3.3m). Both turnover and pre-tax profit are ahead of market expectations.
In the second half, revenue from overseas markets contributed 50 per cent of the group total compared to 43 per cent in the first half, and for the full year overseas revenue represented 47 per cent of group revenue – a record level.
Tristel has continued to generate significant levels of cash and at the end of June cash balances were £5.1 million. The company has no debt. The board is currently considering its dividend policy and the ongoing cash requirements of the business as it continues its global expansion.
Chairman Francisco Soler said: "The company enjoyed a very strong second half with overseas sales continuing to drive progress. The Australian acquisition that we announced at the Open Day event in July last year made a significant contribution to this growth and we consider it as having been a success.
Tristel's stock has already ballooned 10 times its value four years ago.

This website lets you look for patterns in COVID-19 data
Months into the pandemic, there are still so many unknowns about COVID-19. Does age or ethnicity affect how likely a COVID patient is to be admitted to the ICU? Are patients who don't enter the ICU more likely to end up back in the hospital later? And do comorbidities—other health conditions, such as diabetes, asthma, or heart disease, that may worsen someone's COVID-19 case—have any affect on how long a coronavirus patient is hospitalized for?
A new website called COVID19questions.org hopes to answer these questions, and more, based on real patient medical record data from more than 200 hospitals. The site was created by a research consortium of 12 hospital systems, including UC San Diego Health and Cedars Sinai Medical Center, called Reliable Response Data Discovery, and funded by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation.
[Screenshot: COVID19questions.org]
No one hospital has treated enough COVID-19 patients to parse out any patterns in how the disease affects different people, says Lucila Ohno-Machado, consortium lead and chair of the Department of Biomedical Informatics at UC San Diego Health. But with all their patient data aggregated, the hospital systems can see what trends or patterns have emerged.
"A new disease is always difficult because you discover new things, and then you want to compare with other patients," Ohno-Machado says. "For example, mortality in the ICU—what is it compared to other respiratory conditions? So it's important to have available data to consult." COVID19questions.org can draw from data on more than 59,000 patients who tested positive for COVID-19 and 29,000 who were hospitalized with the infection, to make those kinds of observations.
To protect privacy, patient-level data is never transmitted out of the individual health systems; only the data aggregates that answer a question. This way, there are no issues with privacy, Ohno-Machado says.
Clinicials, researchers, patients, and the general public are welcome to submit questions to the website. Those questions are then translated into a code that queries the electronic medical records. After each health system has run the code on their own patient records and provided the results to the consortium, its members will do a quality-control check, to make sure there weren't any errors with maps or how that code was applied, and then post the answers to the site.
Because the answers are displayed as data, and not written-out conclusions, Ohno-Machado says there is some health and data literacy needed to interpret the results. The answer for the question "Among adults hospitalized with COVID-19, how does the in-hospital mortality rate compare per subgroup (age, ethnicity, gender and race)?" shows bar graphs that display mortality rates by each category. The biggest differences were among age groups: more than 27% of patients 81 and older have died while hospitalized for COVID-19, while only 3.6% of patients 41 to 50 did.
The graphs on mortality per ethnicity and gender indicate that more non-Hispanic people and more men have died in hospitals from COVID-19, but when you adjust each of those categories for age, Ohno-Machado says, there's no difference in mortality along those other groups. That's explained by an adjusted analysis below those graphs, but it might not be immediately clear to some readers that age is the most important factor for mortality. (The site does lay out considerations readers should take when interpreting the answers.)
Still, the consortium hopes this site makes this information more accessible to the public than when only scientists can ask questions, analyze data, and publish their results in academic journals. The site isn't meant to replace clinical studies. The site won't answer questions about remdesivir, for example, because there are clinical trials already researching that.
Instead it aims to answer things there would never be a clinical study on, such as the rate of readmission for patients who never went to the ICU. Hopefully, Ohno-Macado says, these findings can complement the clinical trials, and give us a better understanding of COVID-19. "Some things will never be subject to a randomized control trial, they're just observations," says Ohno-Machado.

Q: What is a WebSocket Subprotocol? Ive been trying to implement the WebSocket protocol from scratch in nodejs, doing so i have a question thats since been unawnsered. What exactly are subprotocols in regards to websockets? The second parameter of the WebSocket constructor is where you specify "subprotocols" -
let socket = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:3000",["http",...]);

Can anybody give me a clear awnser to what purpose they have?

A: Websockets just define a mechanism to exchange arbitrary messages. What those messages mean, what kind of messages a client can expect at any particular point in time or what messages they are allowed to send is entirely up to the implementing application. So you need an agreement between the server and client about these things. You might say… you need a protocol specification. The subprotocol parameter simply lets clients formally exchange this information. You can just make up any name for any protocol you want. The server can simply check that the client appears to adhere to that protocol during the handshake. You can also use it to request different kinds of protocols from the server, or use it for versioning (e.g. when you introduce my-protocol-v2, but still need to support clients only understanding my-protocol-v1).

A: Explained on MDN here

Think of a subprotocol as a custom XML schema or doctype declaration.
You're still using XML and its syntax, but you're additionally
restricted by a structure you agreed on. WebSocket subprotocols are
just like that. They do not introduce anything fancy, they just
establish structure. Like a doctype or schema, both parties must agree
on the subprotocol; unlike a doctype or schema, the subprotocol is
implemented on the server and cannot be externally referred to by the
client.
Subprotocols are explained in sections 1.9, 4.2, 11.3.4, and 11.5 of the spec.
A client has to ask for a specific subprotocol. To do so, it will send
something like this as part of the original handshake:
http GET /chat HTTP/1.1 ... Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: soap, wamp
or, equivalently:
... Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: soap Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: wamp
Now the server must pick one of the protocols that the client
suggested and it supports. If there is more than one, send the first
one the client sent. Imagine our server can use both soap and wamp.
Then, in the response handshake, it sends:
Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: soap
The server can't send more than one Sec-Websocket-Protocol header. If
the server doesn't want to use any subprotocol, it shouldn't send any
Sec-WebSocket-Protocol header. Sending a blank header is incorrect.
The client may close the connection if it doesn't get the subprotocol
it wants.
If you want your server to obey certain subprotocols, then naturally
you'll need extra code on the server. Let's imagine we're using a
subprotocol json. In this subprotocol, all data is passed as JSON. If
the client solicits this protocol and the server wants to use it, the
server needs to have a JSON parser. Practically speaking, this will be
part of a library, but the server needs to pass the data around.

A: Some sample code, copy from https://hpbn.co/websocket/#subprotocol-negotiation, to make it clear.

The client can advertise which protocols it supports to the server as
part of its initial connection handshake:

var ws = new WebSocket('wss://example.com/socket',
                       ['appProtocol', 'appProtocol-v2']);

ws.onopen = function () {
  if (ws.protocol == 'appProtocol-v2') {
    ...
  } else {
    ...
  }
}

Wood-Look Porcelain Tile: Just Another Trend, or a Better Alternative to Hardwood Flooring?
Just a few short years ago, wood-look porcelain tile began its quick ascent to mainstream popularity; today, it continues to enjoy acclaim as a premium and eco-friendly alternative to hardwood flooring. Its detractors, meanwhile, claim that wood-look tile is "just another fad" that will disappear as trends in the industry change. In this edition of "TrashTalk," we will evaluate the pros and cons of using this material, and hopefully come to a conclusion as to which side of the debate has more merit.
We'll need to start our discussion by laying some ground rules for a "fair fight"; what makes one better than another? We'll be judging these two materials on the basis of their durability, ease of maintenance, impact on resale value, cost and environmental impact. These characteristics should all contribute to a well-informed flooring decision, but you may find some to be more important than others.
With proper maintenance, hardwood flooring can be kept in good order, but it's far more susceptible to warping, scratching, dents and other damage than it's porcelain-based counterpart. Wood-look tile stands up to high traffic with ease, and is usable in damp areas like bathrooms without the warping concern of real hardwood; that said, wood look tile is the clear winner in this category.
A well-kept hardwood floor is certainly a beautiful sight to behold, but the key word here is "well-kept"; the National Wood Flooring Association recommends maintaining your floors with a cleaner specific to your finish on a monthly basis, as well as refinishing the floors every 3-5 years. Since it's tile, wood-look is just as easy to clean as the ceramic tile you know and love from other parts of your home; just be sure to clean up spills promptly, according to MSI Stone. This point goes to wood look porcelain.
Some have cried foul on the wood-look tile trend, calling it just that. While products have gotten better at imitating the look of real wood over the years as this material's popularity surged, you can't get closer than the real thing; it's why we recommend using natural stone over imitation materials like marble-look quartz, and it's a reason why we'd recommend going for real hardwood over wood-look tile as well. Of course, hardwood flooring is more expensive than tile with wood patterns, such that the return on investment is similar, but solid hardwood wins in terms of overall value added.
When it comes to your home, you can't make decisions based on price alone, but it is a factor of great importance. Hardwood flooring has tried to enter the low-cost arena of late, with some less expensive "engineered hardwoods" emerging onto the scene, but these products are typically of inferior quality; repair costs can sometimes end up adding up to more than the savings realized by using engineered over solid hardwood! As a more affordable alternative to solid hardwood, and a superior product to engineered hardwood, we're giving this round to wood-look tile.
Sustainability in design is a growing concern among many homeowners and designers; as the ramifications of climate change rear their ugly head even now, decision-making in every facet of our lives plays a critical role in protecting our future. Not only does the manufacturing of hardwood require deforestation, but most chemicals used to finish (and repeatedly refinish) the surface emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which can be hazardous to human health.
On the contrary, wood-look tile contains no actual wood, and is completely inert once it's been installed; it's actually been exempted from emissions testing by numerous environmental standards bodies like LEED. The clear winner in terms of environmental friendliness is porcelain plank tile.
By a score of 4-1, wood-look tile wins the day; it's more affordable, more durable, and easier to maintain. If you're looking to add more overall value to your home before a sale, hardwood is the best option for you, but on an investment return basis both materials are equally attractive options. While wood-look flooring can be expensive from some retailers, StoneTrash has tens of thousands of square feet at steeply discounted prices. When you're looking to redo your floor, be sure to check StoneTrash first for the best deals around!

    }

And this is how I call it...
try {
            //send request xml to the server
            responseXML =
                    new SendRequestToServer1(getApplicationContext()).execute("POST", "eXml", uriStr , signedXml).get();// get updated time
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO: handle exception
            Log.d("Request", e.getMessage());
        }

Any help appreciated...

Q: Hidden Column on ListView - Android I have several columns from a Database I need to show on a ListView.  I also have the ID of the record, but would like to hide that column.
Is there a way to create columns in the XML for the ListView and maybe hide it there?
UPDATE:
I tried the suggestion from the link in answer 1.  This is the code I cam up with but it dumps on the last line.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Setra FLEX™ offers an easy-to-use, flexible indoor environment control and monitoring solution. The beautiful smooth mounting panel combined with the intuitive graphic display meets a variety of exterior architectural requirements. The product supports up to 3 rooms and monitors up to 6 parameters per room. For additional I/O, other I/O modules can be added to monitor more complex applications. The differential pressure sensor is optional at the factory and can also be ordered separately and mounted above the ceiling. Supports BACnet/IP or BACnet MS/TP network protocols for easy integration into building automation systems.
The FLEX™ monitor has a modular hardware design and is suitable for mounting on walls of various thicknesses around the world. For applications with a wall depth of less than 50 mm, order models with external pressure sensors. When mounted in a triple box, a model with an integrated onboard sensor is available to order. Sufficient onboard I/O meets the connection needs of the most common device and sensor applications. For additional connectivity needs or more advanced HVAC applications, order accessory expansion I/O modules. All pressure detection types use differential pressure transmitters with a precision of up to 0.25%. The projection sensitive capacitive touch screen is equipped with a swipe feature that allows medical gloves to operate. The panel is fixed to the main body of the device, which can prevent erroneous operation and is easy to open for pressure calibration.
FLEX available in two models, providing both the best price-to-performance as well as the one-of-a-kind feature set to meet the most challenging application needs. Both FLEXs can be controlled over the network via read/write BACnet objects, permitting both local control via the touchscreen or control from the BMS.
FLEX software meets all application requirements and supports up to 3 rooms. FLEX-RM (Indoor Monitor) only provides monitoring functions for applications that do not use the touchscreen for control. The FLEX-RC (indoor controller) includes monitoring functions, PI loops, or network control functions for VAV boxes, venturi valves, or liquid cycle reheat valves. The software is pre-installed, and configuration and network integration can be accomplished through a simple setup screen. No programming is required. After the configuration is complete, the standard USB stick can be used to copy the configuration settings to other devices, reducing the commissioning time. Also, the configuration can be done remotely via the BACnet network.
The FLEX™ Monitor is both a controller and a monitor that emits audible and visual alarms for all indoor environmental parameters. By selecting two PI control loops and two monitoring sets, four indoor modes (such as occupied and unoccupied) can be arbitrarily configured and save energy consumption.

Q&A with Tahira Thekaekara: Making India's cities thrive for people, not cars
Raahgiri Day in Gurgaon, India. (Photo Credit: Courtesy of EMBARQ India)
Tahira Thekaekara is Strategy Head-Institutional Development of EMBARQ India, a project of the World Resources Institute that helps cities achieve sustainable urban mobility. This is the third Q&A in a weeklong series celebrating Earth Day 2016.
How did you become involved with the environment cause?
I grew up in the Nilgiris in southern India on the edge of a wildlife sanctuary. My parents worked with indigenous people. Watching their harmonious and symbiotic relationship with nature and the forests they lived in definitely shaped my worldview.
I moved to the city for university. I missed my first day of classes because I stood at the station naively waiting for the Mumbai local trains to get less crowded! It seemed impossible that you could have trains every three minutes, and they could all be so full. I eventually made it to university, but I would routinely be late for classes because unlike seasoned city dwellers, I was terrified to cross city roads filled with speeding cars that have little respect for pedestrians.
Nearly two decades later, I laugh at my first interactions with the city. But those memories still inspire and drive me to make cities more livable.
Who have inspired you along the way?
I was fortunate to have several interactions with Vandana Shiva, a prominent scholar and environmental activist, while I was in high school. As a teenager, I worshipped her. Today, the entire movement she helped create is an inspiration. Her book, "Staying Alive: Women, Ecology and Development" had a huge impact on me. Sunita Narian, another activist, is also a source of inspiration, especially her writings in Down to Earth magazine.
Can you describe a recent effort that you are proud of working on?
I'm really proud of WRI India's streets-for-all program. Started as "Raahgiri Day" — India's first sustained car-free day initiative — it has scaled up to 36 locations in over a dozen Indian cities, opening up streets to people and leading to a paradigm shift in the way city planners and policymakers view and prioritize street design, motorization, and road safety for pedestrians and cyclists.
The Raahgiri Day movement has spread across the country rapidly, closing streets to vehicles every Sunday until noon and encouraging people to walk, cycle, exercise and reclaim their streets. It helps promote safer roads, cleaner air, increased physical activity and community building.
Among the many benefits of Raahgiri Day, providing a safe space for women to be in public has been an outstanding success. By just bringing women into the street to walk, bike, run, dance or even just sit and relax, Raahgiri Day represents a quiet revolution, slowly but surely changing mind sets and normalizing the concept of women being in public without the traditionally pre-approved social purpose.
What is one message you would most want to tell world leaders?
The environmental problems facing our planet at the nexus of economic opportunity and human wellbeing are more urgent than ever. We need to act quickly and find practical and comprehensive solutions to the challenges of climate change, the energy crisis, deforestation, food, water, and urban sustainability.
This is the time for governments across the world to come together for the good of the planet, to collaborate and share ideas, technology and knowledge. We hold the earth's resources in trust for future generations, and how we manage conflicts and harness synergies between environment and development will determine the quality of life our children and grandchildren.
What sustains you?
The pace and scale of urbanization in India is mind-boggling. And yet, we see so much positive change and so many stories of success. Personally, the incredible team I work with at WRI is a huge source of inspiration. For the better part of a decade I see my colleagues take on seemingly unsurmountable challenges and succeed against the odds.
My colleagues Amit and Sarika Bhatt started a movement to reclaim streets and inspired over one million people across the country to join them in less than two years. My colleague Prashanth Bachu moved his entire family halfway across the country and dedicated three years of life to making a great Bus Rapid Transit a reality for the city of Indore. Their enthusiasm is infectious.
What do you hope can be achieved in the next decade?
India is rapidly urbanizing. Currently just over one-third of our people live in cities. But in a little over three decades, that number will more than double, with over two-thirds of people expected to be living in cities.
India has some dubious distinctions — we lead the world in road fatalities, are home to 13 of the 20 most polluted cities in the world, and have repeatedly made global headlines for being unsafe for women. If we can change the way we conceive urbanization, we'll be one step closer to building cities that are healthy, safe, equitable, and change the course of our country. That is my hope for the next decade.

Tag: SR-213
1975: Interurban in Tipton County, 40 Years Later
On 27 April, 1975, the Kokomo Tribune ran a full page story about with the headline "Clues to old interurban road still traceable in Tipton County." The first paragraph was: "TIPTON – Nearly 40 years after the last of Tipton County's interurbans was abandoned, it is still possible to retrace their rights-of-ways." Many are the stories that were included in that article. I want to share some of it here today.
Along the old interurban lines, at that time, were many things that can immediately show the location of the old right-of-way. Bridge abutments are the most obvious. But there were also concrete collars, placed around electric poles for the safety of the pole. These collars were four feet high. They lined both sides of the tracks.
But the article goes on to point out other things that aren't so obvious.
"In a goat pasture about a mile west of Hobbs, the interurban roadway appears as a flat plateau running alone the south side of Ind, 28." Hobbs, according to Google Maps, is where SR 28 and SR 213 come together. Just south of SR 28 on SR 213, at CR 150S, "utility poles cutting through a field mark the southern edge of the interurban right-of-way." Between the two mentions places in this paragraph, "a 20-feet-wide strip has been removed from a woods along the highway."
The Union Traction Company of Indiana operated two interurban lines through Tipton County. The first, which would include the locations from the previous paragraph, ran from Elwood to Tipton through Hobbs. The other ran north through Tipton County, starting in Indianapolis, and connecting Atlanta, Tipton and Sharpsville before leaving the county. Another line that was planned, and construction started, but was never finished, would have connected Tipton to Frankfort.
The article states that "it is easiest today to find the old routes in rural areas. Construction and growth in cities have covered up the old tracks there. The interurbans often ran alongside highways and regular railroads, and the rural folks have not been in a hurry to obliterate the roadbeds."
The line crossing Tipton County from the south followed the old Nickle Plate tracks across the county into Tipton. The Interurban repair yards, known as "the shops" (as related by 76 year old Dempsey Goodnight, a lineman and conductor for 10 years for the Union Traction Company), were located just north of Cicero Creek at Tipton. Work on the traction cars happened at this location. An electric substation was also contained on the yard's property. By 1975, the old two story building was being used by a seed company.
That right of way left the Nickle Plate right-of-way to go west on Madison Street. According to Goodnight, between Independence and East Streets, there "used to be a stucco house. I remember when a street car jumped the tracks here and hit the porch."
The ticket and dispatch offices, as well as the freight house, were located at the corner of Main and Madison Streets. By 1975, the freight depot, located on the west end of the ticket/dispatch office, had been torn down and replaced.
The route through Tipton turned north on Main Street, west on Dearborn Street, and north on Green Street. A boarding house for travelers was located at 612 Green Street, according to Goodnight. From there, the line headed northwest toward Sharpsville and Kokomo.
Jefferson Street was the entry point into Tipton for the line from Elwood, and made a loop in the downtown area. That loop was south on Independence Street, west on Madison Street, north on West Street back to Jefferson Street and its trip back towards Elwood.
"When the interurbans were built, the 75-foot utility poles were set in concrete. As the lines were abandoned, the poles were removed but many of the concrete bases were left in place, now looking like old lawn planters."
Between Tipton and Hobbs, the old ROW was located about 20 feet south of SR 28. At Hobbs, the interurban followed CR 150S until just east of the SR 213 intersection, where it followed the old Norfolk & Western tracks, along the south side of the ROW, for four miles. Near CR 700E, the interurban veered south, just to turn back north to cross the N&W on a viaduct..
The ROW south from Tipton followed the old Nickle Plate as far as CR 500S, where it moved to the west around a cemetery. It then turned east again to cross a road, railroad and a creek. One of the abutments for that overpass still exist along CR 100 W and the Nickle Plate tracks, as seen here.
It looks like there may be a road trip in my future to see what is actually left of these two interurban lines. From what I can tell from Google Maps, there isn't much. But, inquiring minds want to know. And If nothing else, I have an inquiring mind.
All photos in this blog entry came from the Kokomo Tribune of 27 April 1975 and were taken by Ron Sentman.

Q: How to intercept the paypal payment confirmation with Virtuamart 2 in joomla i need to intercept the payment confirmation from paypal to my joomla site (with virtuamart 2), in other words i need to know which file is called after a successfully payment to add a snippet of code to update another database
Thanks all

A: In VirtueMart 2.x all payment methods (and for that matter shipping methods) are handled by Joomla! plugins. So for payment plugins you will find the relevant file in:
/plugins/vmpayment/paypal/
Shipping plugins are in the similarly named:
/plugins/vmshipment/ directory.


post-review is a command line tool for Windows, Linux and MacOS X that simplifies both creating and updating review requests. It can look at your source directory, generate a diff, and upload it to a new or existing review request on an associated Review Board server. This saves a lot of time over the web UI, and for some types of code repositories (such as Perforce), it's actually required in order to produce a compatible diff.
Depending on the repository type, post-review will either require a changeset number, or it will rely on the changes in the current source tree. The end result is that post-review will build a diff and post it to a Review Board server. The diff and any additional review request information will be saved on the server as a draft, which can then be published.
After posting a new review request or updating an existing one, post-review will display the URL of the review request. If the -o parameter is passed, a browser will be opened to that URL.
The following subsections will explain how post-review is used with different repository types.
Where CHANGENUM is the changeset number in Perforce.
post-review must be used if you're using Perforce with Review Board, as the diff generated by p4 diff doesn't provide the information necessary to properly display a side-by-side diff.
If you're using a distributed version control system, such as Git or Mercurial, then you may be working on code based on a branch that isn't available to the repository Review Board has configured. In these cases, you'll want to take advantage of post-review's parent diff support.
If you want to upload a diff of everything between topicA and topicB, you would need to tell post-review to generate a parent diff between master and topicA.
That would generate a parent diff between master and topicA, and a normal diff of your changes between topicA and topicB. The changes in the parent diff won't appear as changed lines in the diff viewer, meaning that users will only see changes made on topicB.
This only works with Git right now, and makes an assumption that master represents an upstream revision that Review Board has access to. Normally this means that master and origin should point to the same revision. In the future, this will be more flexible.
Snapshot views are not currently supported.
Only uncommited code reviews are currently supported.
By default, post-review assumes that you're posting uncommitted code. This is called a pre-commit review. However, it's sometimes useful to post code that has already been committed to a repository, such as in an experimental branch. This is a post-commit review.
In order to do this, you can use the --revision-range parameter, which will generate a diff based on a range of committed revisions. This allows a single review request to show a diff representing the entire history of a branch, if desired.
In order to update an existing review request, you can use the -r parameter, as shown above.
post-review will generate diffs automatically based on the repository type, but if you need to post a pre-existing diff, you can use the --diff-filename parameter to specify the path to the diff file.
It's possible to automate post-review on a user's behalf. This can be useful from a repository's post-commit hook to automatically create or update a review request. This works through a combination of a special Review Board user and the --submit-as option.
There are many ways to configure post-review in order to associate a Review Board server with a repository. The ideal setup is to configure a repository to point to a Review Board server, so that users can use post-review out of the box, but there are other methods available.
Some repository types can have special metadata associated to point to a server. All repository types support per-directory dot files.
You can set the repository URL in .reviewboardrc file in any directory. This must be a directory in the user's checkout path to work.
post-review itself can be modified with the path of the repository. This is useful in companies where there's only one Review Board server and the other methods aren't acceptable.
There are also other more advanced customization options available for specialized cases. See the documentation and variables inside post-review for more information.
If you customize this file, it may make it harder to upgrade to newer versions of post-review in the future. It's advised that you use a custom copy of the script and not one that was installed by a package, or your changes will get overridden.
If the repository isn't configured for post-review and a custom script isn't provided, you can create a .reviewboardrc file in your HOME directory (usually /home/username on Linux, $USERPROFILE\Local Settings\Application Data on Windows).
Any number of repository paths can be specified. The repository path must match a repository configured in the Review Board server.
Displays detailed debug output in the terminal.
Opens a web browser to the address of the review request.
Specifies the URL of Review Board server to use. By default, post-review will try to scan for the correct repository.
Specifies the username to use for any updated made to the review request. This is different than --username in that this username is not used for logging in to the server. A login user with necessary permissions must be used in order for this parameter to work.
This is useful when used in a repository's post-commit script to update a review request. See Automating post-review for usage information.
Specifies the username used to log in to the Review Board server. If not specified, post-review will prompt for it.
Specifies the password used to log in to the Review Board server. If not specified, post-review will prompt for it.
Publishes the review request immediately after submitting. Normally the change is left as a draft.
Updates an existing review request, instead of creating a new one. The ID is the review request number to use.
Specifies a revision or a range of revisions used to generate the diff. See Posting Committed Code for usage information.
Sets the review request's branch field to the specified text.
Specifies a list of bug numbers to use for the Bugs Closed section in the review request. This should be a comma-separated list.
