"Being Bizarro: Part 1 of 2"
In the Underverse, something goes wrong with the Bizarro workers.
Superman, taking care of a strange beast near Jupiter, returns to Earth, only to be slammed by crazed white figures that adopt the appearance of whomever they touch, with one taking Superman's appearance.
A square planet appears in Earth's atmosphere, startling Superman.
The beings begin to rain down on Earth, turning people at a party with Jimmy Olsen and Perry White in attendance into Bizarros. Only Lombard, who is touched by one of the Bizarros, seems immune. Ron, Jimmy, Cat and Perry barely escape.
Superman lands, doing battle with one of the Bizarros, one that looks like him (there is a difference in this story, note... Neal). Superman notes that he's not like previous Bizarros.
Jimmy boards a blimp he calls with his signal watch, and calls P.R.O.J.E.C.T. to see what's going on. They inform him that a planet-eater (the square planet) is trying to appear less hostile by looking like Earth, and has corrupted the Bizarros into attempting to replicate. The Bizarros are staying on Earth's dark side, because, of course, sunlight weakens a Bizarro.
The square planet begins to alter the tides, causing massive tidal waves. Superman finds that Lombard's blood is immune because he takes "performance enhancing" drugs. Which performance remains unspoken.
He scribbles an anti-Bizarro serum on a card for Lois, then blasts into the square planet, sending it retreating back to the underverse.
Superman, weakened by the opposite society, cannot fly, and soon weakens. One of the Bizarros explains that some Bizarros are born flawed, and introduces Superman to Zibarro, a Bizarro that speaks like Superman does, with opposite clothing.
Story - 5: This one actually took two reads to get my head around. I had no idea how that planet was suddenly there, or the connection between it and the Underverse. Mostly I confused the fact that Superman was returning a sun-eater to... Jupiter (huh? Isn't that a dumb move?) and then a PLANET-eater was attacking Earth. I thought they were connected, and failed to make the connection. That was one awkward moment.
I was also disturbed to see Superman making kissy-face with Lois as a tidal wave ripped through a major city causing untold deaths. It's out of character, and the kind of thing Morrison occasionally indulges in with his vision of the character, much to my own bristling.
Beyond that, however, top to bottom this story is crazy, intelligent, strong, and Superman at his best. Zibarro is awesome, the idea of sunlight weakening Bizarro is something I fully plan on stealing and using if I ever get to write Superman comics, because it's so incredibly awesome, and the idea that Bizarros would have a Bizarro is so logical and obvious I'm surprised it hasn't been done like this before. Awesome.
Everything in this universe is unique. Sometimes that's bad and annoying, mostly it's astonishing. I will gladly sacrifice the fact that the tides should have changed after Superman talked to Lois for all of the creativity that markedly makes this the best among comics.
I am STILL, however, fervently, passionately, and almost to the point of boycotting this book upset with the release schedule. I ask myself, would I have waited four months for each issue of the Death of Superman? The answer is probably yes. Would it make me happy? NO. This is ridiculous. Professionals should be professional enough to release books in a timely manner. Or, if not, at least own up to that and wait until there's enough backlogged books to release things in a timely manner.
They will continue to do this until we stop buying books that are late. You guys are far too forgiving. Heck, I'm too forgiving. But this is unfair to both the fans and professional standard. Maybe someone will have a solution in the comics, but it's just a flat-out tragedy that such an awesome book has to be mired with this specter.
Yeah, they said it would be bimonthly, after first announcing it as a monthly, and now we have seven issues in almost two years? The first issue arrived in November of 2005. It is now April of 2007 and we have 7 issues. $#%@ing ridiculous.
Art - 5: Amazing. Really, truly amazing. I love his work, and would love to buy it any time I get the chance and enjoy the subject matter. Zibarro, the humanity of all the characters involved... Frank really grows on you, and this issue is another in a strong of long hits.
That said, cough, I would rather see him do an arc a year from now, an arc that is finished and timely, and have another arc with another penciller, even if it's not as good as Quitely.
Cover Art - 5: Covers the subject matter contained in the book, has an awesome symmetry with the cross-eyed vision, involves an incredible, dynamic pose, and just screams at you to buy the book. Awesome.

Top Contenders for Biden's Cabinet Draw Fire From All Sides
Aides to the president-elect said on Wednesday that he intended to announce more members of his economic team this coming week after choosing Janet L. Yellen, a former Federal Reserve chair, to be his Treasury secretary.
Mr. Biden could pick Roger W. Ferguson Jr., an economist who was vice chair of the Federal Reserve and was under serious consideration for the Treasury job, to lead the National Economic Council or a new board overseeing the recovery from the recession.
Picking Mr. Ferguson, who is Black, to lead the council would help Mr. Biden keep a promise to make his administration look like the rest of America. Other names under consideration for the position are white men, including Bruce Reed, a former chief of staff to Mr. Biden, and Austan Goolsbee, an economist who was chairman of Mr. Obama's Council of Economic Advisers. Gene Sperling, a veteran economic adviser dating back to the Clinton administration, is another possibility, as is Brian Deese, who was deputy director of the National Economic Council under Mr. Obama.
Mr. Reed, a noted centrist and deficit hawk, was Mr. Clinton's domestic policy director, and helped develop the welfare overhaul that Mr. Clinton signed into law requiring work and setting time limits.
He has come under fire from prominent liberal members of Congress, including Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, who also oppose his consideration to lead the Office of Management and Budget, which helps the White House determine economic priorities. But blocking Mr. Reed, who traveled with Mr. Biden for much of the campaign, from the budget office post may only ensure he winds up in the West Wing, where the president-elect could make him a senior adviser.
To lead the Agriculture Department, Representative James E. Clyburn of South Carolina, the highest-ranking Black member of Congress, is pushing for Representative Marcia L. Fudge, an African-American Democrat from Ohio. Mr. Clyburn, an early and important backer of Mr. Biden, has said the department should be focused more on hunger.
But traditionalists eager to keep a voice from rural America in the post are advocating Heidi Heitkamp, a former senator from North Dakota, or Tom Vilsack, the former Iowa governor who served as agriculture secretary for Mr. Obama.

Can I simply claim what a relief to discover a person that in fact understands what theyre speaking about on the net. You absolutely recognize how to bring a problem to light and make it important. Even more people need to read this and also understand this side of the tale. I cant think youre not extra popular since you absolutely have the present.

Um cool but like, what? Who knew that Gaga was such a heavy metal freak.
After smashing it at the Super Bowl halftime show, Lady Gaga will be hitting up the Grammy's stage with ~hard rockers~ Metallica.
Rolling Stone have confirmed that she'll be joining the boys onstage, but still no word on how the actual f*ck the performance will go down.
Like Gaga and sport is a weird mix, but Metallica, like wow okay girl you do you.


Below you'll find a list of all of the Doctor of Nursing Practice programs available in North Carolina.
The Doctor of Nursing Practice program at Duke University offers three pathways to the DNP degree: BSN - DNP, MSN - DNP, and Ph.D. - DNP. Students admitted to the BSN - DNP program can choose Nurse Practitioner or Nurse Anesthesia as their advanced practice specialty area. U.S. News and World Report (2016) ranks the university's School of Nursing as #3 in the country for Anesthesia Education. Upon completing the program, students are awarded both an MSN and a DNP degree. Applicants interested in the MSN - DNP and the Ph.D. - DNP pathways should have a master's degree in an advanced practice specialty. For the 2016 academic year, the school will award one 75 percent tuition merit scholarship and five 20 percent tuition merit scholarships.
East Carolina University's DNP program is offered in a hybrid format. Students are only required to attend on-campus sessions for two to three days at the beginning of each semester. There are two pathways leading to the DNP degree - BSN to DNP and post-master's DNP. The BSN to DNP program allows students to choose between an advanced nursing practice specialty focus in Adult Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP) or Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP). The post-master's DNP program considers applicants who already have their MSN and are credentialed in an APRN role (Clinical Nurse Specialist, Nurse Midwifery, Nurse Anesthesia, or Nurse Practitioner). Both programs can be pursued on a part-time or full-time basis. Students must complete a DNP Scholarly Project to graduate.
Students accepted to the post-master's Doctor of Nursing Practice program at Gardner-Webb University can choose from the following two areas of specialization: Advanced Practice Leadership and Educational Leadership. The program is presented in an executive format, with students required to attend only a few scheduled on-campus sessions per semester. The remainder of the program, including lectures, presentations, and writing assignments, are delivered online. The DNP curriculum covers topics such as epidemiology, informatics, nursing theory, nursing education or administration, policy, research, and statistics. The programs offered by the School of Nursing at Gardner-Webb University are accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing, Inc.
The UNC-Chapel Hill DNP program is CCNE-accredited and offered as a campus-based program. Most of the courses however, have an online component and delivered in a hybrid format. Students entering through the BSN to DNP pathway can select the Healthcare Systems option, which prepares them for roles that support clinical practice, such as nurse administrators. Another BSN to DNP option prepares students to be nurse practitioners in the following APN areas: Adult/Gerontology NP, Family NP, Psychiatric Mental Health NP, Pediatric NP, and Health Care Systems (Administration, Outcomes Management, and Informatics). There is also an MSN to DNP pathway for RNs who are already prepared as nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, registered nurse anesthetists, nurse midwives, nurse administrators, or health care systems leaders.
The University of North Carolina at Charlotte and Western Carolina University offer a post-master's Doctor of Nursing Practice dual program. Delivered in a hybrid format, the dual DNP program can be completed with five semesters of continuous enrollment. Students are required to attend on-campus immersion sessions of less than one week at the beginning of each semester. The curriculum includes courses such as: Healthcare Program Evaluation and Quality, Global Health and Social Justice, Technology for Communicating and Transforming Healthcare, and Community Epidemiology. The culminating experience of the program is the completion and defense of a DNP Scholarly Project, which must also be prepared for publication in a peer-reviewed journal.
There are two pathways to the Doctor of Nursing Practice program at the University of North Carolina Greensboro. The post-baccalaureate option is offered as a full-time program that can be completed with seven semesters of continuous enrollment. It has two areas of concentration: Nurse Anesthesia and Adult/Gerontological Primary Care Nurse Practitioner. The post-master's DNP program has the same concentration areas and includes a third option - Executive Leadership. UNCG's DNP program is offered on-site. Both the post-baccalaureate and post-master's nurse anesthesia concentrations are accredited by the Council on Accreditation of Nurse Anesthesia Educational Programs. Students are required to complete a Translational Project in order to graduate from the DNP program.
Winston-Salem State University offers a Doctor of Nursing Practice program with a clinical focus in the Family Nurse Practitioner area of specialization. The program is open to both post-baccalaureate (BSN to DNP) and post-master's (BSN to DNP) applicants. It typically takes three years (six semester and two summers) of continuous, full-time enrollment to complete the BSN to DNP program. The MSN to DNP option generally takes 18 months (four semesters) to complete if pursued on a full-time basis. Part-time plans of study are also available. Many of the courses for the MSN to DNP program are delivered using an executive model. Face-to-face meetings are scheduled four times each semester, and the remainder of the coursework and requirements are completed online.

We recently returned from our latest trip to Disney World. It doesn't seem to matter how often I visit the parks, I fall in love with them more and more with each and every trip. One reason for my love of Disney travel (although there are MANY) is how Disney makes it so easy to be involved in your trip. This is especially true for those of us who enjoy planning and organizing. Although I like to be flexible once I'm actually on my trips, I also LOVE being able to plan as much, or as little, of my vacation as I want using the My Disney Experience tool.
Plan as much or as little of your vacation as you want with the My Disney Experience App.
My Disney Experience and Play are just two of the many examples of how Disney is literally putting fairy dust (of the digital sort) into the hands and back pockets of their guests. But just as Peter, Michael, and Wendy found out, perhaps too much pixie dust isn't what we're really seeking for our dream vacation. I mean, yes, we all want to escape to Never Never Land, but even in such a magical place, all anyone really wanted was their "mother". So while all of these digital tools and games are capable of infusing any Disney trip with more planning, more fun, and more magic, perhaps we need to have an honest-to-goodness conversation with ourselves on just how much "more" we need. We're becoming increasingly "connected" with our devices when we already have so much more to connect with sitting right next to us on the monorail to Magic Kingdom.
One of the most common scenes I saw while I was there at Disney World just this past week was mom and/or dad staring at their phones while their children were either on a device of their own or were left to their own devices (pun intended). Families and couples at restaurants often sat in silence while they looked at the latest YouTube videos or checked their inboxes. Children would argue and fight in line while their parents texted away and gave the occasional, "Stop climbing on the railing" without actually looking up or correcting the behaviors.
Now, please understand that I'm not sitting here in a guilt-free zone. Let me just point out that I am a Millennial. I literally grew up with the World Wide Web, I've been through the stages of cassette tapes, VHS, stationary phones, phone books, the Nokia phone craze in the early 2000's, Y2K, Napster, MySpace… am I forgetting anything here?! Heck, I even make a living as a Web Developer, so finding me without some kind of technological device nearby isn't all too common. I understand the impulse to look at my phone when I'm waiting in line (*because 2 minutes is too long to wait) or that same impulse to "Google" everything. And I most definitely understand wanting to use the My Disney Experience to book my next Fast Past or make a new reservation. I. Get. It.
But while using all the great apps and tools can really make for a seamless vacation, I also recognize that for all that planning goodness, there comes a point when it just becomes distraction from why I'm really on vacation. And on a Disney vacation in particular. I often joke with my travel buddies about how quiet I can be on my Disney trips because I get so lost just taking in the ambience and surroundings. Walk down any path, go into any shop, stand in any line and find one corner of a Disney park that isn't designed with care. It's all that theming that give Disney parks a step up on any other amusement park across the world. But who will notice all these little details and secrets if our noses are bent over our phones? Who will notice the look of sheer awe on our 8-year-old's face when he sees Buzz Lightyear come around the corner? What memories are going overlooked because you'd rather text your friend or beat the next level in Candy Crush?
There's no "phoney" business about it… Take full advantage of the technology that makes life so much easier and organized, but also don't forget that life happens WITH you, not inside your phone. Get those FastPasses, make those dining reservations, play a little trivia game together while you're standing in line, but don't forget that the pixie dust in your hands from earlier is most effective when you're making happy thoughts instead of letting them become like shadows lost on the playroom wall.
Thanks David! Adapt we can… it just has to begin with a little self-awareness and sticking to our priorities.

Q: Ghostscript is increasing file size after compressing I use the following method to compress the pdf:
private bool CompressPDF(string Input, string Output, string CompressValue)
        {
            try
            {
                Process proc = new Process();
                ProcessStartInfo psi = new ProcessStartInfo();
                psi.CreateNoWindow = true;
                psi.ErrorDialog = false;
                psi.UseShellExecute = false;
                psi.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
                psi.FileName = string.Concat(Path.GetDirectoryName(Application.ExecutablePath), "\\ghost.exe");

                string args = "-sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4" + " -dPDFSETTINGS=/" + CompressValue + " -dNOPAUSE  -dQUIET -dBATCH" + " -sOutputFile=\"" + Output + "\" " + "\"" + Input + "\"";

                psi.Arguments = args;

                //start the execution
                proc.StartInfo = psi;

                proc.Start();
                proc.WaitForExit();

                return true;
            }
            catch
            {
                return false;
            }
        }

I put the pdf settings on "Printer" by default. I cant figure out why the file size of my pdf files increase sometimes.

A: Ghostscript (more accurately its pdfwrite device) doesn't 'compress' files.
It is possible, by judicious use of settings which will do things like downsample images to trade quality for file size, to get a smaller file produced but there is absolutely no guarantee that this is the case.
Without seeing the input file, there is no possible way to comment on why your file increases in size, but (for example) a PDF 1.5 file can use compressed streams and xref, and the pdfwrite device never uses those, so that could be one reason.
The canned 'PDFSETTINGS' cover a multitude of different controls, you should read those and understand what is actually going on. If your original file happens to already have traded quality for size, then it's entirely likely that the printer settings (which are reasonably conservative) will not actually do anything at all.

Home Problems Encountered In The Onion Cultivation Of The Dambulla Area
Problems encountered in the onion cultivation of the Dambulla area
Big Onion crop was introduced to Sri Lanka by the British in 1855 and commercial cultivation was introduced by the Department of Agriculture during the 1950's and over the past years, the crop performance was evaluated in many parts of the country and it was observed that big onions can be grown economically during every Maha season in almost all parts of the country.
2. However, at present the cultivation of big onion is confined only to Matale, Anuradhapura, Puthalama, Pollonnaruwa, Mahawelli and Jaffna Districts. More than 50% of the total onion production in Sri Lanka is cultivated from the Matale District. [1]
3. The Government strives to achieve a self sufficient stage in the production of big onions since Sri Lanka spends a significant amount of cash outflow every year on the importation of the big onions. Meanwhile, in the recent past it has been noticed that the big onion production has been affected in Sri Lanka and therefore customers are also paying a higher price for the big onions. In particular the big onion production in Dambulla area has been declining in the last few years.
AIM OF THE RESEARCH
4. The Dambulla area plays an important role in the big onion cultivation in Sri Lanka. The Government has been paying less attention and support on promoting the big onion production in Dambulla.
Therefore, it has so happened that the onion production in Dambulla has declined in the recent past as a consequence of the government's less support for this sector. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to promote the big onion cultivation in the Dambulla area.
5. This research is carried out with the following specific and general objectives.
a. The main general objective of this study is to identify the main problems encountered in the onion cultivation of the Dambulla area.
Specific objective
6. The specific objective of this study is to give the recommendation to improve the Big onion cultivation in the Dambulla area and specific objectives are as follows.
a. To study the recent history of Big onion cultivation in Dambulla area and to compare the present situation of the Big Onion cultivation.
b. To identify the main issues encountered in big onion cultivation in Dambulla.
c. To identify the critical contributing factors.
d. To make recommendations based on the findings.
1. Low yield of onion industry in Dambulla is due to less assistance of the government sector
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
2. The Matale District plays an important role in the big onion cultivation in Sri Lanka in particular Dambulla provides big onions for the Sri Lankans' consumption. In the recent past due to the lack of support from the government sector the big onion cultivation has been declining.
3. As a result the big onion cultivation in Dambulla will be non existence in the very near future. Furthermore, many farmers depend on the big onion cultivation as their livelihood in Dambulla. Hence, if the big onion cultivation in Dambulla is affected many families will lose their income and it will affect the survival of many families. Thus the lack of support from the government and the consequent less onion cultivation are considered as the research problem for this study.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY
4. This research studies the declining stage of the onion cultivation in Dambulla. The scope covers only the Dambulla area of big onion farmers. Therefore, this research has been limited to the onion farmers of the Dambulla area.
a. Primary Data . Structured questionnaires were used to collect the data. These questionnaires consist of 2 parts they are; Part I – the factors determining the big onion cultivation in Dambulla and Part II – the personal profile. The first part comprises statements of two major factors which determine the big onion cultivation in Dambulla; poor quality of seeds and the lack of fertilizer support. To identify the responses the questionnaire in part I applied the Likert scale of 1 – 5, which ranges from "Strongly Disagree" to "Strongly Agree". The second part included the personal profile of the respondents relating to; age, sex, civil status and number of years the farmer has been in cultivation.
b. Secondary Data. In addition to primary data, secondary data also was collected for this research. It was collected by referring to the reports from the Agricultural Department and from the Department of Census and Statistics.
SAMPLE OF THE STUDY
7. This research studies the factors influencing the decline of the big onion cultivation in Dambulla. Therefore, the responses were collected from the local onion farmers from the Dambulla area. Thus, 100 big onion farmers were considered as a sample for this study since all farmers could not be accessible within the limited time for this study. These farmers were selected in a random basis. Therefore, the simple random sampling method was applied for the selection of the sample.
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
8. The following limitations were encountered in the study.
a. Time is limited, so that within the limited time the research has to be finished because of this in-depth analysis cannot be applied.
b. The researcher encountered limitation of resources.
c. The sample was limited only to 100 farmers.
9. The big onion is an important minor crop consumed by many Sri Lankans and it has been estimated that 34,000 metric tons of onion is imported annually and Sri Lanka spends around 300 million rupees on onion importation (Gunawardena, 2009). Furthermore, it has been also estimated that 45,000 labour units are employed in the onion cultivation and production annually by Sri Lankans and therefore, it increases income and employment generation for many Sri Lankans. [2]
10. Many countries worldwide are getting involved in the big onion production. In particular they are; Belarus, Russia, Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine, India, Pakistan etc (Research Institute for Vegetable crops, 2006).
11. According to Shanmugasundaram (2001) there are varieties of onion and it mainly includes the sweet, red, white, yellow, brown and green etc.

BENEFITS OF ONION PRODUCTION
12. Furthermore, it has been identified that the big onion production brings several comparative benefits when compared to with other crops (Autko & Moisevich, 2006). Some of the benefits are given below.
a. Output can be obtained in a short period of time.
b. Initial costs such as; seeds costs, fertilizer costs are comparatively less.
c. It does not require a set cost.
d. Less technology the machines are sufficient.
e. High employability of manual labourers.
f. Easy to find markets.
g. Less storage period.
13. The onion basically has been divided into red onions and big onions and each variety requires different eco-agricultural conditions, labour, fertilizer, weather and climatic conditions, temperature, etc.
REQUIREMENTS AND CONDITIONS NEEDED FOR THE ONION PRODUCTION
14. The literature suggests different requirements for smooth growing of the big onion production. Some of the conditions suggested by Autko and Moisevich (2006) are given below.
a. Increase of fertile soil layers in the zone of plant root by 4-6 cm
b. Increase of aeration and warming of soil, excluding over wetting in the period of heavy precipitation
c. Decrease of fertilizer rate application by 30%
d. Decrease of seed sowing rates
e. Ensuring of looser soil state during the whole period of vegetation
f. Possibility of soil surface copying by working organs of machines, during inter-row treatment, lowering of plant protective zone 3-5 cm, mechanical weed destruction by 70-75% and band application of pesticides that ensures the decrease of their rates by 2-3 times
g. Increase of irrigation efficiency
h. Diminution of nitrate content in the production
j. Decrease of energy expense during harvesting by 20-40%.
15. Therefore, the above conditions can be considered as the basic requirements for the growth and survival of the big onion production.
16. The onion basically has been divided into red onions and large onions and each variety requires different eco-agricultural conditions, labour, fertilizer, weather and climatic conditions, temperature, etc.
DECEASES IN THE ONION CULTIVATION
17. Shanmugasundaram, (2001) has identified the following diseases that affect the onion cultivation. He has divided these deceases into two.
a. Field diseases
b. Storage diseases
18. The field diseases comprises of Stemphylium blight , Purple blotch, Anthracnose, Botrytis leaf blight, Downy mildew, Pink root, Smudge, Smut and several Basal rots (Shanmugasundaram, 2001).
19. The storage diseases covers common field rots, botrytis neck rot, black mold and bacterial soft rot (Shanmugasundaram, 2001).
PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED IN THE BIG ONION CULTIVATION IN SRI LANKA
20. Meanwhile it has been learned that in the recent past the onion cultivation has been reducing as a result of many factors. Some factors identified by Kulatunga (2006) are presented below.
a. Lack of quality seeds
b. Lack of advice given for application of seeds
c. Insufficient loan facilities available to purchase high quality seeds
d. Long durations taken for harvesting from seeds
e. Lack of government support in providing fertilizer facilities to the onion production
f. Lack of quality fertilizers available for the onion producers
g. Lack of availability of fertilizer at outside and private outlets
h. Absence of counselling and advice given on how to apply the fertilizers for the new variety
j. Lack of storage facilities to store the onion production.
21. Though these problems are encountered in the onion production it can be divided into two major categories. These are given below.
a. Lack of government support in giving seeds to the onion cultivators.
b. Lack of government support to provide fertilizer to onion cultivation.
LACK OF GOVERNMENT SUPPORT TO SEEDS
22. It has been observed that big onion cultivation has been affected to greater extent by the lack of government motivation in finding required seeds. Thus; lack of quality seeds, lack of counselling and advise on applying seeds, lack of new variety of seeds, insufficient government financial support to purchase seeds, absence of assurance on harvesting duration etc are encountered under seeds (Kulatunga, 2006).
LACK OF FERTILIZER SUPPORT
23. Kulatunga (2006) has also identified that there is no sufficient fertilizer support to motivate the big onion production. In Sri Lanka it has been learned that the onion farmers lack government funding and subsidies to buy fertilizers. Furthermore, fertilizer is sold at a fairly high price in the outside outlets. In addition the efficient and harvest stimulating fertilizers are not available for the onion farmers. Also the high quality and different variety of fertilizers are also not available to increase the big onion cultivation in the Dambulla area.
INCREASING BIG ONION PRODUCTION
24. It is therefore important that the onion production is increased in order to protect the big onion industry and to assure the livelihood of many Sri Lankans. Hence the literature suggests that the following measures can increase the onion production.
a. Involving in research and development activities in order to increase the onion production.
b. Government providing support to find high quality seeds.
c. Government has to give seeds of the new varieties.
d. Government has to provide seeds at subsidized prices.
e. Government has to provide constant counselling and advice on handling seeds.
f. Government has to extend the fertilizer subsidy.
g. Providing high quality fertilizer.
h. Monitoring fertilizer distribution.
j. Counselling on handling diseases.
Conceptual model
25. From the literature review the following conceptual model has been developed.
Figure 3.1 Conceptual Model
Decreasing onion cultivation
Lack of fertilizer availability
Lack of seed availability
(Source – Formed for this Research Study)
26. The above figure depicts two sets of factors that determine the decrease in the onion cultivation; the lack of seed availability and the lack of fertilizer availability. This was derived from Kulatunga (2006). Each set of the major factors have sub factors. Therefore, these two are considered as the independent variables. The decreasing onion cultivation can be identified as the dependent variable. Hence, this figure establishes links between the factors and the decreasing onion cultivation. Through this research study one need to know which factor(s) cause for the decreasing onion cultivation, among the farmers in the Dambulla area.

DATA PRESENTATION AND ANALYSIS
1. This chapter covers the data presentation, analysis and discussion.
2. This section presents mean and standard deviation of the factors affecting the onion cultivation in Dambulla. The mean values have been distributed based on Likert's Scale of one to five which represents "Strongly Disagree" to "Strongly Agree". Meanwhile, mean values were evaluated based on the already established evaluative criteria which range from "low level" to "high level".
Table 3.1 the values of mean and standard deviation (SD) of factors contributing to the onion cultivation:
From current staff
.41Source – Survey Data
3. Table 3.1 represents values of mean and standard deviation of factors contributing to the decreasing level of the onion cultivation. The mean value of the seed availability is 1.90 and the standard deviation is 0.25. Since the mean value of seed availability (1.90) is less than 2.33, it falls into the category of "low level satisfaction"
4. Meanwhile, the mean value of fertilizer availability is 2.24 and standard deviation for the same variable is 0.41. Thus, the mean value of fertilizer availability (2.24) is less than 2.33 and it also falls under "low level of satisfaction".
Table 3.2 the mean and standard deviation values for the statements in the seed availability:
I get high quality seeds
Government distribute seeds
Government provides a subsidy to buy seeds regularly
Seeds give an expected harvest
We can buy seeds from the Government Agricultural Department
Government provides training and counselling regarding the new seeds
I can get regular counselling and advice of the diseases in the seeds
5. Table 3.2 shows the mean and standard deviation values for the statements in the seeds availability. As presented above, all eight statements that measure seed availability for the onion farmers in the Dambulla area have taken the mean values of less than 2.33. Therefore, it can be derived that farmers satisfaction on all statements of seed availability fall into the category of "lower level satisfaction".
Table 3.3 the mean and standard deviation values for the statements in the fertilizer availability:
I get fertilizer subsidy from the government
I can buy fertilizer from the Government Agricultural Department
I can buy fertilizer from private outlets at a less price
I can get high quality fertilizer
I get advice and counselling on the application of fertilizer
I get different variety of fertilizer
I get fertilizers that can maximize harvest
I can store excess fertilizer for future use
Source – Survey Data
6. Table 3.3 reveals the values of mean and standard deviation for the statements in the fertilizer availability. Hence all statements that measure the influence of fertilizer availability of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area have taken the mean values less than 2.33. Therefore it can be stated that the farmers satisfaction towards all statements of fertilizer availability fall into the category of "low level of satisfaction".
7. This section presents data on the personal profile of the farmers in the Dambulla area. It covers age, sex, civil status and the number of years of experience in the onion cultivation of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area.
Fig 3.1 the age distribution of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area:
Table 3.4 the age distribution of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area
Age category
8. Fig 3.1 shows the age distribution of the respondents from onion farmers in the Dambulla area. Thirty percent of the respondents are less than 25 years and the respondents falling into the category of 26 – 35 and 35 – 45 are 28% and 24%, respectively and 82% of the respondents are less than the age of 45. Only 18% of the responded onion farmers are above the age of 45. Hence it reveals a fact that the majority of the onion framers in Dambulla are less than the age of 45.
9. Therefore it can be concluded that most of the young employees are found to be faced with a decreasing level of onion production.
Sex Distribution
Fig. 3.2 Sex distribution of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area
Table 3.5 Sex distribution of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area
Sex category
10. Fig 3.2 shows the sex distribution of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area. Sixty-eight percent of the responded onion farmers in the Dambulla area are male and 32% of the responded onion farmers are female.
11. This shows that most of the male onion farmers in the Dambulla area are found to be affected with a decreasing level of onion cultivation the Dambulla area.
Fig 3.3 Civil status of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area
Table 3.6 Civil status of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area
12. Fig 3.3 shows the civil status of the responded onion farmers in the Dambulla area. Sixty-two percent of the respondents are married and 38% are single.
13. It is clear that most of the married onion farmers in the Dambulla area are found to be facing the problem of a decreasing level of onion cultivation the Dambulla area.
Distribution of years of experience
Fig. 3.4 Number of years of experience in the onion cultivation
Table 3.7 Number of years of experience in the onion cultivation
Number of years of experience
Less than 3
14. Fig 3.4 shows the number of years of experience in the onion cultivation of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area. Accordingly, 20 % of the responded onion farmers in the Dambulla area have less than 3 years' of experience and the responded onion farmers in the Dambulla falling into the category of 3 – 5 and 6 – 10 years are 46% and 30%, respectively. Only 4% of the responded onion farmers have the experience of above 10 years. Thus, more than 95% of the responded onion farmers in the Dambulla area have less than 10 years of experience.
15. Therefore it can be stated that the most of the onion farmers in the Dambulla area who have an experience of less than 10 years are found to be encountering the problem of a decreasing level of onion cultivation in the Dambulla area.
DISCUSSION AND ARGUMENTS
1. This chapter provides the discussion on analysis. It presents the mean and the standard deviation of the two factors contributing to the onion cultivation.
Table 4.1 Mean and standard deviation values for the statements in the seed availability:
Government provides the subsidy to buy seeds regularly
Seeds give the expected harvest
I can get regular counselling and advise on the diseases in the seeds
2. As presented in Table 4.1 the onion farmers have expressed their lower level of satisfaction on all statements of the availability of seeds and the quality, because all mean values are under the category of 1 – 2.33.
3. Thus the first statement "I get high quality seeds" has taken a mean value of 1.88 which represents that the onion farmers are not highly satisfied with the availability of the high quality seeds.
4. Similarly the second statement "Government distribute seeds" has taken a mean value of 1.94 and this also comes under the lower level of satisfaction. This reflects that the government does not distribute seeds and therefore it also affects their onion cultivation.
5. Third statement "Government provides the subsidy to buy seeds regularly" has taken a mean value of 1.79 which represents that the onion farmers are not satisfied with the government's subsidies to buy the seeds.
6. Fourth statement "Seeds gives the expected harvest" has taken a mean value of 1.56 which reflects that the onion farmers are less satisfied with the amount of harvest from the seeds and this affect the onion cultivation from the Dambulla area.
7. 5th statement "We can buy seeds from the Government Agricultural Department" has given a mean value of 2.16 which shows that the onion farmers are unable to purchase seeds from the agricultural department and this also reduces the onion cultivation.
8. Next statement "Government provides training and counselling regarding the new seeds" has obtained a mean value of 2.12 which indicates that the onion cultivators do not get sufficient training and counselling from the relevant authorities on how to apply the new varieties of seeds and this affects the onion cultivation in the Dambulla area.
9. 7th statement "I can get new varieties of seeds" has received a mean value of 1.79 and this refers that the farmers are unable to get new varieties of seeds and therefore the onion production has come down in Dambulla.
10. The final statement "I can get regular counselling and advice on the diseases in the seeds" has given a mean value of 1.85 which signifies that the onion farmers do not get regular counselling and advice on new diseases affecting the onion cultivation. Therefore, they are unable to protect the onion cultivation and ensure higher growth.
Table 4.2 Mean and standard deviation values for the statements in the fertilizer availability:
I get the fertilizer subsidy from government
I can buy fertilizer from Government Agricultural Department
I can buy fertilizer from the private outlets at a less price
I get different variety of fertilizers
I get fertilizer that can maximize the harvest
I can store the excess fertilizer for future use
11. As in Table 4.2 the onion cultivators have indicated lower level of satisfaction on all statements of fertilizer availability because the mean in all comes under the category of 1 – 2.33.
12. Thus the first statement "I get the fertilizer subsidy from government" has taken a mean value of 2.20 and this means that the onion farmers do not get fertilizer subsidy to buy the fertilizer and this leads towards less onion cultivation.
13. Similarly the second statement "I can buy fertilizer from the Government Agricultural Department." has taken a mean value of 2.14 and this falls under the lower level of satisfaction. This reflects that the farmers are unable to purchase fertilizer from the agricultural department and has limited capacity of increasing their production.
14. Third statement "I can buy the fertilizer from private outlets at a less price" has taken a mean value of 2.18 stating that the onion farmers cannot buy fertilizer at a less price from other outside outlets. Therefore, it has affected their capacity of the onion cultivation.
15. Next statement "I can get high quality fertilizer" has taken a mean value of 2.20 which represents that the onion farmers are finding difficulties in purchasing fertilizer that can maximize their harvest and it has reduced the onion cultivation.
16. 5th statement "I get advice and counselling on the application of fertilizer" has given a mean value of 2.15, indicating that the farmers are unable to get advise and counselling on how to use different varieties of fertilizer. This has limited the onion cultivation in Dambulla.
17. 6th statement "I get different variety of fertilizer" has obtained a mean value of 2.24 which indicates that the onion cultivators are unable to find different varieties and new varieties of fertiliser that stimulate more harvest. As a result the onion cultivation has been less in the Dambulla area.
18. 7th statement "I get fertilizer that can maximize the harvest" has received a mean value of 2.12 and it means that the onion farmers are unable to find fertiliser that can give the optimal harvest and this has affected the onion cultivation from Dambulla.
19. The final statement "I can store excess fertilizer for future use" has given a mean value of 2.09 which indicates that the onion farmers do not have facilities of storage and keeping fertilizer for future use. Therefore, their fertilizer utilization is not optimal. Therefore the onion cultivation has been limited in Dambulla.
FINDINGS/RESULTS
1. This chapter provides the findings and the discussions. It presents the mean and
the standard deviation of the two factors contributing to the onion cultivation.

THE Palm Beach Currumbin High pipeline continues to churn out the talent with one of the school's old boys the QAFL Rising Star nominee for round seven.
Alexander "AJ" Dawson, a 20-year-old, has played every game for premiers PBC Lions this year and it has been his consistency and steady improvement as a half-forward flanker that led to his nomination this week.
Like so many Lions players, Dawson is a product of the PBC High system, although he is not a PBC junior. He played his early junior days with neighbours, the Burleigh Bombers, before finding Salk Oval to launch his seniors career.
It was with the Bombers in 2015 that Dawson played several senior games in the same team as younger brother Jacob Dawson and a big bloke named Brayden Crossley.
Dawson has watched on as Crossley has made his AFL debut with the Gold Coast SUNS this year and only last week Jacob was elevated from the rookie list and he, too, is poised for an AFL debut at Metricon Stadium.
"I'd love to join them, but it is fair to say I probably have a bit of a longer road to go to get there," Dawson said in all honesty.
It has been this frank self-analysis that has led to Dawson getting a Rising Star nomination.
He has listened to what Lions head coach Chad Owens has told him and has taken on the challenge.
Owens had first-hand knowledge of what Dawson could do in his role in the Palm Beach Currumbin High School's elite Australian football program.
"AJ was actually school team captain in 2015," Owens said.
"Now he's into his third year with Palm Beach and went straight into the reserves from high school.
It has been all about role playing for "AJ", according to Owens, doing his job so everyone else can do theirs.
So has this assessment been a fair call?
"Yes it has," Dawson said emphatically, conceding it had been too much about his own numbers rather than the team thing.
One gets the feeling that Dawson is close to cementing his spot in PBC's top 22 players but he knows he cannot slacken off for one moment.
"I know I have to work hard because there are plenty of good players to come back," Dawson said as he mixes football with a sport and exercise science degree at Griffith University.
In his time with the Burleigh juniors Dawson was in the SUNS academy in 13, 14 and 15 years then had another stint in the 18s in 2015.
He made his QAFL seniors debut in round four of 2016.

Q: Recovering a restricted Lie algebra from its restricted enveloping algebra Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, and let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a restricted Lie algebra, with restricted enveloping algebra $u(\mathfrak{g})$.  We can place a Hopf algebra structure on $u(\mathfrak{g})$ by requiring that all elements in $\mathfrak{g}\subset u(\mathfrak{g})$ be primitive.  With this structure, might there be primitive elements in $u(\mathfrak{g})\setminus\mathfrak{g}$, or is it the case that the set of primitive elements in $u(\mathfrak{g})$ is precisely $\mathfrak{g}$?
I know that in characteristic $0$, it is true that the set of primitive elements in the universal enveloping algebra $U(\mathfrak{g})$ is precisely the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, but I'm not sure if this holds for positive characteristic.

A: This is a very old question but it may be useful for somebody reading this post to know that the set of primitive elements in $u(\mathfrak{g})$ is precisely $\mathfrak{g}$.
A generalisation of this statement is proven for colour Lie $p$-superalgebras in Chapter 3, Theorem 2.11 of ``Infinite dimensional Lie superalgebras'' by Bahturin et al.

Q: Need help using Selenium and Python3 I would like to print each total price of every tv on this page. I tried this:
browser.get('https://www.trovaprezzi.it/televisori-lcd-plasma/prezzi-scheda-prodotto/lg_oled_cx3?sort=prezzo_totale')

all_spans = browser.find_elements_by_xpath("//span[@class='item_total_price']")

for span in all_spans:
    print('span.text')

However, when I run the code, it doesn't print anything and it doesn't tell me which error occurred
