Regensburg Cathedral
Regensburg is one of Germany's oldest towns, founded by the Romans in 179 AD. It's in the German federal state of Bavaria, at the northernmost point of the river Danube. Acting as capital of the district of Upper Palatinate and also its biggest settlement, Regensburg today is a thriving city of about 137,000 inhabitants, two universities and many landmarks and little chapels, most dating back to the Middle Ages (e.g. the Cathedral of St. Peter, the Old City Hall and Imperial Diet, and the Stone Bridge). According to legend there are so many chapels here, that there would always be at least one church bell ringing. Since 13.07.2006 the historic city center of Regensburg and Stadtamhof has been a UNESCO World Heritage site. Because of its narrow alleys Regensburg is often called the northernmost city of Italy.
Although the earliest settlements date back as far as 5000 BC and it is evident, that the first Celtic settlement, called Ratisbona, was in the city's present-day vicinity since the first millenium BC, the official history starts in 179 AD, when the Romans built the fortress Castra Regina at the northernmost bend of the river Danube. For the following 200 years the fortress served as the Romans main military base in the province of Raetia. After the Romans left the area during the Barbarian Invasions, the town became a civil settlement. Being granted one of the first seats of a bishopric on German territory in 739, Regensburg grew to strength and prosperity during the Middle Ages. After the completion of the Stone Bridge (Steinerne Brücke) in 1146, a symbol of the town's importance in trade, that reached as far as Paris, Venice or Novgorod, the constructions of the cathedral started in 1273. The builders needed nearly 600 years until 1872 to complete this task. Both the Stone Bridge and the Regenburg Cathedral survived unchanged and are the city's main sights today. Having been one of the largest and most important German cities during the Middle Ages, Regensburg became a Free Imperial City (Freie Reichsstadt) in 1245 and was seat to the Perpetual Diet (Immerwährender Reichstag) of the Holy Roman Empire from 1663 to 1806, when the Empire dissolved during the Napoleonic Wars. Napoleon forced Regensburg to agree to become a part of the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1810, which set an end to the city's political importance. However, Regensburg economically regained strength because of its role as a river port for crude oil imports from Eastern Europe. Although Regensburg was target to 20 allied bombings during World War II, because it was home to one of Messerschmitt's main aircraft factories as well as an oil refinery, the historic city center took only little damage. There were two sub-camps of the Flossenbürg concentration camp located in the vicinity of the town for a brief period of time in early 1945. After World War II Regensburg slowly recovered. In 1960 the university was founded and several large companies like Siemens, BMW, Infineon, and Toshiba built factories in the city. In 2006 Regensburg's historic city center was appointed a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
There are two airports that are suitable for a trip to Regensburg:
Munich International Airport (IATA: MUC), one of the busiest airports in Europe, is located 100 km (60 mi) to the south of the city with many international connections. The quickest way to reach the city from the airport by public transportation is taking bus 635 to the city of Freising and change to a train to Regensburg there. Plan around 90 min for the trip. By car via autobahns A 92, A 9, and A 93 it's 120 km (75 mi) and about the same time as by train. Additionally, there is a much more expensive shuttle bus between this airport and Regensburg.
Nuremberg International Airport (IATA: NUE) is situated 100 km (60 mi) to the north-west of Regensburg and has mostly domestic and a few European connections. If you are travelling by public transportation, take subway U2 to Nuremberg Central Station (Hauptbahnhof) and change to a train to Regensburg there. The trip will take approx. 90 min. If you are going by car, drive along autobahn A 3 all the way down to Regensburg, which will take you around 60 min.
Regensburg Central Station (Hauptbahnhof) is conveniently located 700 m (760 yd) south of the historic city center and generally has a traveler friendly infrastructure, including several restaurants, a tourist office and a Deutsche Bahn ticket office and travel agency. It is served by numerous regional trains, many national high-speed ICE and IC long-distance trains and also offers two direct international connections:
ICE 91: Vienna (Austria) - Passau - Regensburg - Nuremberg - Frankfurt - Cologne
ALEX: Munich - Freising - Regensburg - Prague (Czech Republic)
IC 26: Passau - Regensburg - Nuremberg - Frankfurt - Hamburg
IC 31: Regensburg - Nuremberg - Frankfurt - Düsseldorf - Hanover - Hamburg
RE: Munich - Freising - Landshut - Regensburg - Nuremberg
ag: Ingolstadt - Regensburg - Landshut
Regensburg is easily accessible via the German autobahn network, with two autobahns intersecting in the city:
A 3: Cologne - Frankfurt - Würzburg - Nuremberg - Regensburg - Passau - Linz (Austria) - Vienna (Austria)
A 93: (Munich via A 9 -) Hallertau - Regensburg - (Prague via A 6) - Hof (- Berlin via A 72 & A 9)
There are also major national highways passing the city:
B 8: Nuremberg - Regensburg - Straubing - Passau
B 15: Weiden - Schwandorf - Regensburg - Landshut
B 16: Ingolstadt - Regensburg - Cham
Travelers that go to Regensburg by bus usually arrive at the big bus station in Stadtamhof, on the other side of the Danube. The city has many regional services and also a few national and international connections, most notably an express bus to Prague (Czech Republic), which is much faster than the respective train connection.
Regensburg is located at the banks of the river Danube, that runs via Vienna (Austria), Belgrade (Serbia) and Budapest (Hungary) to the Black Sea. Regensburg is the starting and end point of regular river cruises down the whole length of the Danube.
The historic city center is a pedestrian zone, so going by car is not an option. However, if you came to Regensburg by car there are several parking garages around the center, where you can leave your car. As the city center is reasonably compact, it's best explored by foot. All major points of interest are within a 1 km (1,100 yd) radius. For longer distances, Regensburg features a comprehensive public bus network, operated by RVV and RVB. Buses are frequent (10 min intervals during peak hours) and run until around midnight every day. The centre of the bus network is Albertstraße bus station just opposite the train station. There's also a Altstadtbus taking you through the inner city. The price for a usage of 90 min is €2. To reach Walhalla, you also can take a ship, which is leaving from the pier close to the Stone Bridge (Steinerne Brücke).
The main attraction of Regensburg is its excellently preserved medieval city centre, with Regensburg Cathedral and the Stone Bridge being the highlights. As one of the few cities in Germany mostly undamaged during World War II, Regensburg boasts the largest preserved medieval city centre in Germany. It is sometimes called "the northernmost city of Italy" due to the lively places and streets with lovely outdoor cafes during summer, as well as the large number of Italian-style medieval merchant houses and towers. The historic centre lies next to the river Danube (German: Donau), and crossing the medieval stone bridge into the town provides a perfect entrance to the city and a great view over the whole historic city centre.

Regensburg made its fortune trading in salt, however it is unlikely that you will be taking this home as a souvenir. Regensburg has many centuries worth of old breweries, so perhaps some local beer, or perhaps a litre Stein (glass) would be a good purchase. Try some "Händlmaier's Senf", the typical sweet mustard that is usually served with white sausages. If you need to kill some time at the train station, the footpath leading across the railway tracks also connects the train station to a shopping mall (Arcaden)).
Additionally, there are several shopping malls in Regensburg:
The Regensburg Arcaden (directly connected to the main station; many food shops
The Donaueinkaufszentrum (DEZ): Very big shopping mall, you can find almost everything in it
The Alex Center
The KÖWE Center
The Rennplatz-Einkaufszentrum (REZ): In fact it can't be called a shopping center, because there are maybe about 10 to 20 shops. It mainly provides the people living in the West of Regensburg.
Regensburg has a superb variety of places to eat, from snacks, to traditional brewery fare, past international cuisine to high-class restaurants. There is sure to be something to please every taste. One famous place is the "Wurstkuchl", just at the Steinerne Brücke (Stone Bridge), founded over 900 years ago and presumably the oldest fast food restaurant in the world. There is a small beer garden right at the river bank where you can enjoy the sausage specialties served by waiters in medieval dress. For Bavarian specialties, try the "Kneitinger" on Arnulfsplatz.
Regensburgs main drink is, just as usual for Bavarian cities, surely beer. The city boasts three functioning breweries and two brew pubs, producing a variety of beer styles, from lighter Pils to heavy Dunkels; Weißbier (wheat beer) is also locally made. A typical pub to visit would be the "Kneitinger" at the Arnulfsplatz 3. Also the beer gardens near the Danube "Alte Linde" and "Spital Garten", both reachable from the Stone Bridge, offer a perfect way to taste Regensburg-brewed beer. The Bischofshof beer can be tasted next to the cathedral in the court of the "Bischofshof", where the brewery used to be.
In the inner city there are over 350 bars, cafés, clubs and discos. The most famous ones, especially for young people studying here, are:
The Suite 15: Adolph-Kolping-Straße
The Gloria: Simadergasse
The Scala: Pustetpassage, Gesandtenstraße
The Zap: Rote-Stern-Gasse
The beer from the Thurn und Taxis brand is primarily no longer brewed in Regensburg, but an exception is the Thurn und Taxis brew pub "Fürstliches Brauhaus" in the Waffnergasse 6.

Hallmark Halts All Lori Loughlin Projects After Arrest In College Bribery Scandal, Pulls 'When Calls The Heart' Episode
By Shakiel Mahjouri. 14 Mar 2019 7:07 PM

Hallmark will not touch Lori Loughlin with a 10-foot pole.
The channel told ET Canada they are cutting all ties with Loughlin following her arrest in a college bribery scandal. "We are saddened by the recent allegations surrounding the college admissions allegations," said a rep for Crown Media Family Networks, the parent company of Hallmark.
RELATED: Lori Loughlin's Daughter On USC Chairman's Yacht
"We are no longer working with Lori Loughlin and have stopped development of all productions that air on the Crown Media Family Network channels involving Lori Loughlin," the statement continued. Those productions include "Garage Sale Mysteries".
And while nothing official has been announced, it appears likely she'll be written out of Hallmark Channel's period drama "When Calls the Heart", with Deadline reporting that Hallmark Channel is putting the show on hold for the time being — which includes pulling the upcoming March 17 episode off its schedule while producers seek "creative solutions" for what to do with her character, Abigail Station.
According to a source, the Vancouver-shot series is "absolutely not cancelled," but "all options are being explored on how to take the already filmed episodes forward without Loughlin."
Loughlin and her husband, along with "Desperate Housewives" star Felicity Huffman and others, are among those accused of paying large bribes to get their children ahead in colleges. News of the FBI's investigation "Operation Varsity Blues" was made public on Tuesday.

Loughlin and her husband are accused of paying $500,000 to get their two daughters into the University of Southern California as rowers, despite prosecutors claiming neither daughter has ever competed in the sport.
Other wealthy parents under investigation are accused of paying between $200,000 and $6.5 million to admit their children into elite universities such as Yale and Stanford. Everything from fake SAT scores to fraudulent athletic recruitments are on the table.

Coin & Numismatic News Buyer of Historic 1894-S Barber Dime Crosses it to PCGS
Buyer of Historic 1894-S Barber Dime Crosses it to PCGS
1894-S Barber Dime, graded PCGS PR65+
The anonymous winning bidder for one of the most famous United States coins, the ultra-rare 1894-S Barber Dime that recently sold at auction for $1,440,000, has submitted the coin to Professional Coin Grading Service (www.PCGS.com) for Crossover Service.
Previously housed in another grading company's holder, the historic dime that once belonged to legendary collector Louis E. Eliasberg Sr., is now encapsulated in a state-of-the-art, high-security PCGS holder and graded PCGS PR65+.
The dime was sold on December 17, 2020 by Stack's Bowers Galleries and promptly submitted by the new owner to PCGS for Crossover Service. It is one of just nine known specimens from a total mintage of 24 dimes made at the San Francisco Mint in 1894.
"We're proud to have graded the Eliasberg specimen of the 1894-S Barber Dime," remarks PCGS President Brett Charville. "This is one of the most iconic United States rare coins and is one of but a handful that regularly trade for more than $1 million when crossing the auction block. That PCGS was chosen to grade this seven-figure treasure shows the trust collectors place in the accuracy of our grading and security our holders provide their coins."
The 1894-S Barber Dime is one of the most enigmatic of all United States numismatic rarities. It was struck at the United States Mint branch facility in San Francisco during a time when virtually all proof coins were produced at the Philadelphia Mint.
The reason the 1894-S Barber Dime was produced remains unclear, though one of the most common theories suggest that 24 of these Barber Dimes were struck in 1894 at the San Francisco Mint to help balance the mint's accounting ledgers, which may have been $2.40 short.
Some numismatic experts believe San Francisco Mint Superintendent John Daggett gave many of the 24 dimes to his friends and associates and three to his young daughter Hallie. Decades later, when Hallie sold one of the dimes, she reportedly said she had spent one of the three as a child to buy ice cream. That story is intriguing but may be a tall tale involving a fabled and desirable rare coin.

PCGS may work if you've got a million-dollar coin. Other than that it's just a subsidiary of the large coin dealers and tv-marketing channels. PCGS could care less about the small collector submitting his coins for grading.
sam tweedy
Don't worry Mike Mezack and ANACS will save us all!! Just Understand!!!
Interesting that PCGS would grade this coin higher than NGC.
I recently sent a coin graded 65+ by PCGS to NGC for crossover because I prefer NGC holders. But NGC would not grade the coin as 65+ so it remains capsulated in a PCGS holder. Apparently better grades can be found from one of the companies. Which one is most accurate and most reliable???

This is The Handsome Prince's favorite way to have coffee and he calls them a Hot Cocoaccinos.

I want all of you to take a second to head on over to our coffee pots and get a pot of coffee brewing.
It's not important what blend of beans you use, if you prefer decaffeinated (for the love of coffee I don't understand you decaf people but I support the choice), what matters is that you LIKE the blend of coffee you decided to use.
Our coffee will be ready right when we need it.

RESIST THE URGE TO TURN UP THE HEAT.

When it's all nicely mixed, melted and smooth, set it to the side to cool.
In the meantime, you can go ahead and make a batch of My Homemade Whipped Cream or make sure that your cheater tub of Cool Whip is defrosted and ready to go to work.
Gently fold 1 1/2 Cups of Whipped Cream into the chocolate.
Store in tightly sealed container in the fridge and it will keep 5 days.
When you are ready to make your Hot Cocoaccinos put 1/2 a Cup of the chocolate cream you made into a large coffee mug.
Fill the rest of your cup full with coffee.
Leaving a little room on the top to accent that amazing coffee with some whipped cream.
If you want to be really snazzy you can add some sprinkles, crushed peppermint, chocolate curls, a favorite candy crushed, cinnamon sugar, crushed nuts. Serve with a candy cane, chocolate straw, cinnamon stick or my favorite… with a cookie.
Then I like to put a big snickerdoodle or sugar cookie across the mouth of the cup like a lid.
EVERYONE loves to dip a delicious cookie into their creamy coffee!
Hot Cocoaccinos are a very good incentive to peel back those covers and get that coffee pot brewing!
Super easy Hot Cocoaccinos will have your wallet screaming with joy.
The savings will add up making your own excellent coffee drinks at home, at the office or anywhere you can store a batch of the creamy chocolate and snag a hot cup of Joe.

Beerenberg is known for their jams and relishes and dressings but now they have added a few more tempting and tantalising reasons to love their range: slow cooker Spanish Chicken, Moroccan Lamb, Cuban Mojo Port and Hungarian Beef Goulash.
And another good reason to love Beerenberg is that their products are gluten free.
You can find Beerenberg in the supermarkets but gourmet pantries and delis will have a wider range.
VIP Gourmet Cellar next door to the Victoria Park Hotel on Boundary Street South Townsville is well stocked with this new range of slow cooker items as is Christo's Deli at The Precinct Fairfield.
1. Australian Gluten Free Life has magazine subscriptions or a "The Box" full of gluten free goodies or you can purchase single copies in newsagencies.
2. The Gluten Free Scallywag has been busy and you can now pre-order her Volume 4 Magazine. If you missed Volume 3, it is available for purchase as a Printed Edition or Downloadable File.
If you want to try before you buy, then download Volume 1 and 2 for FREE! You won't be disappointed.
5. Jelly Belly Jelly Beans are a gluten free lolly staple especially at Christmas time. Myers in Townsville are already stocking their shelves.
Thank you Ella for your fresh approach to wholesome, healthy and gluten free foods.
Ella started with her blog as a way to heal her body after a diagnosis of Postural Tachycardia Syndrome. One thing lead to another and she is now author of two books: Deliciously Ella and soon to be released Deliciously Ella Every Day.
If ever there was a reason for me not to publish a photo, then MY version of Ella's Chocolate Chia Cookies is it.
However, these cookies are deliciously moorish.
My gf son, who has texture and colour as important criteria when deciding if he likes something, did give the cookies a try. Thumbs down from the gf teenager, but thumbs up from this non coeliac baker who loves to experiment.
My eye caught a gluten free cookbook at the newsagency recently and while I have vowed not to buy any more cookbooks, I thought I would just flick through a few pages.
It was the White Chocolate Mud Cake that swayed me and so for $12.99 I now have this cake on my 'to do' list.
"Sweet Treats" is written by Megan Tan-Hayes and on reading a little more about her recipes and inspiration for gluten free cooking I also found that she is "One Girl Pie" baking sweet and savoury pies. If you are lucky enough to live in Melbourne or are visiting Melbourne then her pies are available at Frederick's Richmond, Common Good Grocers Hawthorne, Darriwill Farm Albert Park and Darriwill Farm Prahan Markets.
Who could resist:Christmas Cranberry, Pork and Fennel, Blueberry, Chicken and Leek, Steak and Mushroom and the list goes on….
But if you don't live in Melbourne, you don't have to miss out as Megan shares her One Girl Pie – Blueberry Pie recipe in her cookbook.
Browsing the Christmas shelves at Myer yesterday, I found the Jelly Belly section and thought that their "Cocktail Classics" was perfect for a Christmas stocking filler for the gluten free teenager in the house.
Last year I wrote about gluten free food related gift ideas and stocking fillers. I had satisfied myself that you can find a gluten free food gift at Christmas and I hope that I have also given others some ideas. So with my second blogging Christmas fast approaching I have put my thoughts toward other gift ideas for those with coeliac disease.
For something personal : if your gf son or daughter is ready to leave home then make up your own cookbook with your tried and tested gluten free recipes. I made a recipe book last year for my gf son which is filled with all the practical recipes I know he will use and make when he leaves home. A copy sits on my kitchen bench and is used many many times during the week for flat breads, wraps, bread rolls, granola, pancakes. And it also includes recipe bases for spaghetti bolognese, lasagne, risottos.
Australian Gluten Free Life who publish a monthly magazine have launched their "The Box" :a box of gluten free goodies delivered to your door on a monthly basis. Looks interesting as I see this 'surprise box' concept is popular in other parts of the world. This is a great way to try new products that you might necessarily and readily have access to.
If you yourself are not a gluten free-er, then you can still put together a package with a recipe card and a few pantry ingredients for the recipe. Remember, it is the thought that counts and the fact that you have put a little thought and time makes this gift special. Choose recipes that will only require the addition of a few ingredients on top of the ones that you have put in the gift.
taste.com.au has a data base of over 27,000 recipes drawn together from a number of leading food magazines.
A search of their recipe data base results in 844 tagged gluten free recipes and now a Gluten Free Cookbook has been published. Priced at $9.95, you can find a preview of 6 of the recipes in the April 2014 issue of taste.com.au magazine.
It is advertised that the cookbook is available at leading supermarkets and newsagents. So keep an eye open for it.
I found a copy this morning in Woolworths tucked behind a pile of other taste.com.au cookbooks.
All the recipes I am sure are available online but I am a bit old fashioned and like to have a printed copy. I am showing my age I suppose.
The dessert on the cover is very tempting indeed – a no bake raspberry cheesecake.


They are GREAT! We don't like typical seat covers, but these are fantastic because they are so easy to use when they are needed. We spend a lot of time at the waterpark, as well as playing at the park, so these covers are super handy for keeping the seats clean. Not only that, my husband is a mechanic so when he has to use the car I don't have to worry about motor oil and dirt getting on the upholstery. A really awesome product. Thanks!
I bought this for my husband because he is a fanatical hiker. We had been using washable car seat mats that fell apart after just a few washes. The CleanRide delivers on it's promises! There is no sweaty odor, the car seats stay dry and it's so easy to clean!
I live in Florida where my wife is an avid runner and uses a towel in the car seat after her runs. Needles to say towels do not do much to stop the sweat and when I get in the car after her my backside was soaked until I got her a CleanRide car seat.
This product exceeds expectations! The fit is perfect with a little extra width and length to protect every inch of fabric or leather seats. The Cleanride installs in seconds and easily folds up for storage.I am an avid cyclist. I ride roadbikes and mountain bikes. The product is so good that I bought another one for both of my vehicles.
I had such a difficult time choosing a car seat protected after my sweaty runs and workouts...but I was so fed up washing towel after towel. I finally bit the bullet and bought this protector. Best purchase!! Extremely easy to put on and take off. I can use on both cars.
Hi, would this fit my 2019 BMW 440i coupe front seats?
Does it fit SUV2006 rav4 -Toyota?
I would like to know if this pattern is availale in a rear bench seat for a 1999 Infinit G-20 base model with two headrest. I have already purchased the front seat covers for this particular car and they are excellent.
Does this Pattern come a rear seat bench option for a Infiniti G-20.

Q: Python how to format a string based on dict or json object? I have a JSON file which I converted to a Dict that has something like
{
  "a": "1",
  "b": "2",
  "c": "3"
}

and I want to format this string based on that JSON
"Blah {a} Blah Blah {b} {c}"

to output
"Blah 1 Blah Blah 2 3"

I haven't tried anything and I couldn't find anything by Googling it (Python how to format string based on json), most results were just to pretty print JSON.

A: You can use str.format to easily accomplish this. Assuming you've loaded you JSON data in memory as a dictionary:
>>> data = {
  "a": "1",
  "b": "2",
  "c": "3"
}
>>> "Blah {a} Blah Blah {b} {c}".format(**data)
'Blah 1 Blah Blah 2 3'

if you're not sure how to load your JSON string into memory, use json.loads:
>>> from json import loads
>>> data = loads('{ "a": "1", "b": "2", "c": "3" }')
>>> data
{'a': '1', 'b': '2', 'c': '3'}

So, put together, the complete script would be:
from json import loads
data = loads('{ "a": "1", "b": "2", "c": "3" }')
print("Blah {a} Blah Blah {b} {c}".format(**data))

A: if you have the JSON array as a variable in your code like below
data = {
  "a": "1",
  "b": "2",
  "c": "3"
}

You can then call those individual items based on the key name in the key/value pairs as defined in the data variable.
It can then be as simple as
new_string = "Blah " + str(data["a"]) + " blah blah " + str(data["b"]) + " " + str(data["c"])

The variable new_string will then be "Blah 1 blah blah 2 3"
I used the str() method just in case what was in the JSON array is not a string already.
If you are trying to be more programmatic about it, and the string will be generated many times with different data sets, you could do it similar to this, but with variable names that are meaningful to you and your project and made into a function.
data = {"a": "1", "b": "2", "c": "3"}
var_0 = str(data["a"])
var_1 = str(data["b"])
var_2 = str(data["c"])
new_string = "Blah " + var_0 + " blah blah " + var_1 + var_2

Then from there you can do whatever you need with the new_string

HomeFeaturesThis Temple alumnus made a VR app for real estate
This Temple alumnus made a VR app for real estate
A 2017 chemistry alumnus co-developed Adulthood to make the housing selection process easier for students.
16 April 2019 Michele Mendez Features, Technology
Kyle Jordan, a 2017 chemistry alumnus, sports an Adulthood app T-shirt at the Student Center on Monday. | ERIK COOMBS / THE TEMPLE NEWS
It took Kyle Jordan a month of touring apartments, talking to landlords and finding potential roommates to find off-campus housing.
"It wasn't an easy process at all," said Jordan, a 2017 chemistry alumnus who currently teaches chemistry at Gratz Prep Middle School in Nicetown.
When his friend Diamond Ross, a 2017 St. John's University business marketing alumna, approached him with an app idea to help college students find apartments, Jordan saw it as an opportunity to make the renting process smoother for students.
Adulthood is an app that allows students to see their potential space in real time by using virtual reality to offer 360-degree views of their potential home.
"Adulthood explains how you feel when you move out on your own and when you're out of your parents' home and out of the campus atmosphere," Ross said.
The app will work as a resource for students to find off-campus housing because some schools may not offer resources to help students, Ross added. Eventually, she wants the app to offer emergency shelter options, so even if students can't afford housing, they can find emergency shelter locations near campus.
"Our main goal is to eliminate and decrease student homelessness," Ross said. "You should not have to live in your car while pursuing a higher education."
While in college, Ross obtained housing by working as a resident assistant. But some of her friends weren't so lucky because they couldn't find housing, she said.
"It's very difficult, to say the least," Ross said. "A lot of my friends actually became homeless."
Ross and Jordan have been filming apartments with a 360-degree camera to create the images. They are considering developing their own virtual reality software or partnering with another company to help landlords convert their standard phone images to 360-degree visualizations.
Adulthood is meant to save students time apartment hunting by allowing them to take tours virtually rather than in person, Ross said. The app is still in development, but a prototype is available online. The official app is expected to launch within a year.
"Virtual reality is going to be taking over soon, and we want college students to be a part of the whole process," Jordan said.
Jewel Thomas, a freshman political science and economics major, is looking for apartments near Main Campus for next year. The process has been very time consuming, she said.
"Looking for apartments that fit my needs, in my price range, at the location I want makes the process kind of difficult," Thomas added.
Ross and Jordan have so far funded the project themselves, but will spend the summer looking for investors and launching a crowdfunding page. The app also allows students to filter for their preferences and will soon include a feature to help students find potential roommates.
Once someone has picked a place, they'll be able to message their landlords through a direct messaging system, receive information about their leasing agreement and pay and split rent with their roommates.
"It will make it easier on each side, as there won't have to be much interaction due to the fact that everybody has a busy schedule and no one likes to receive money in their hand," Ross said.
Julia Prevost, a junior media studies and production major, has had trouble contacting her landlord and rental company concerning maintenance issues and often has to go in person because they won't answer her messages, she said.
Since launching their prototype in February, Ross and Jordan have received messages from landlords and rental companies asking how to list properties on the app.
Jordan Kinsler, an independent landlord in Philadelphia, said he would be interested in using the app because of its convenience. Being a millennial himself, Kinsler understands college students are busy, he added, and thinks viewing an apartment virtually from a 360-degree angle would save landlords and potential renters a lot of time.
"In the world that we're evolving to, everything is about convenience and how fast it can be done," Kinsler said. "[The app] is perfect for today's age, especially if you're trying to target college students for your rental property."
Students across the country have also reached out about the app's launch date, Jordan said. They found out about it through Adulthood's social media profiles.
Currently, the app focuses on major Philadelphia universities, like Drexel University and Temple, but is branching out to other colleges like the University of South Florida.
"I graduated from Temple, and just to get [the app] started there would mean a lot to me," Jordan said.

Q: Default groups for GroupBy linq method Is there a way to define default groups when using GroupBy method. It is only used when there is no item for that group.
Lets say this collection [-4, -3, -2, -1, 0] should be divided into three groups a, b, c if they are negative, zero and positive. And finally each group should be counted like [4, 1, 0]
myCollection.GroupBy(p=>p<0?"a":p==0?"b":"c").Select(p=>p.Count()).ToArray()

Can it be that group c also exists without any item.
Any other one-liner linq is also suitable.

A: You can add three items with known groupings, and then factor them out, like this:
var counts = myCollection
    .Concat(new[] { int.MinValue, 0, int.MaxValue }) // Add items to force groups
    .GroupBy(p => p<0?"a":p==0?"b":"c")
    .ToDictionary(g => g.Key, g => g.Count()-1);

Note g.Count() - 1 expression, it is there to undo the effect of concatenating with an array that forces the default items.
In a more complicated scenario when you need groups themselves, rather than simple counts, you would need to concatenate special "placeholder" objects with the input, and then filter them out after performing GroupBy.

To some, "fringe" might mean an ornamental border of threads hanging off clothing. To those in England, it is another word for bangs. For artists in the Fort Wayne area, the word boils up excitement when they think about the upcoming Fort Wayne Fringe Festival.
"Fringe is a casual, fun, and experimental environment," said Fringe Coordinator, Madison Miller.
Fringe Festivals are held all over the world, but this is the third year such an event has been held in Fort Wayne. These festivals seek to give cutting-edge artists a venue in which to perform. It gives them the opportunity to perform in front of large crowds, and most importantly, it encourages artists to take risks. After all, when using "fringe" as an adjective, the word means, "not part of the mainstream; unconventional, peripheral, or extreme."
Expect to see talent from all over the Midwest at Fringe Festival. Last year more than 800 people came out for the event, and organizers are hopeful for an even bigger audience this year for the week-long festival, which goes from August 2-9. It will include 17 acts with a total of 27 performances.
"Half of the performers are local, offering audiences the opportunity to experience up-and-coming talent from right here in Fort Wayne," Miller said.
Tickets for performances are $5, with all ticket sales going directly to the artists.
Fort Wayne Fringe Festival will officially kick off with an All-IN Block Party on August 2. The festival received a grant from Indiana Humanities in order to host the party, which will include the second annual Fringe K, a short, fun run through the alleyways of the neighborhood surrounding Wunderkammer Company, the festival's official sponsor. The run includes costume categories such as Indiana Historical Figure, Bearded, Best Solo Costume, and Best Group Costume, with the winners for each category receiving a trophy.
Fringe Festival is truly about the arts and getting creative. Expect plays, musicals, dancing and more, and a wide range of talent from Fort Wayne and surrounding areas. Be sure and check the event Facebook page for the latest news about performances.


While it seems as though every move made by Meghan Markle appears to be documented and followed by her countless international admirers, the Duchess of Sussex has been upstaged briefly by one of her best friends, Jessica Mulroney, according to reports from Entertainment Tonight.
Mulroney, who is a professional stylist, revealed during an appearance on Good Morning America that she would be taking a more prominent role with the television program in the future.
Mulroney announced that she would be joining GMA as a fashion contributor. Her Monday appearance was focused on a discussion surrounding fall fashion trends, where Mulroney offered her insight in creating a six-piece capsule wardrobe.
Mulroney's debut appearance as a contributor for Good Morning America appears below.
Markle is likely quite happy for her friend, while also maintaining a busy schedule in her own right. Markle is currently enjoying a tour of Australia, Fiji, Tonga, and New Zealand with Prince Harry. This tour has garnered particularly intense attention, as Markle announced that she was pregnant at the beginning of the tour. She has given her fans and followers plenty of opportunities to see her growing baby bump as she traveled through Australasia.
The duchess spent her Monday in New Zealand, where she celebrated 125 years of female suffrage with a powerful speech on feminism, as covered by the Inquisitr.
Meghan went on to explain that the fight for female suffrage shares many commonalities with contemporary civil rights struggles that affect all marginalized people — regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation.

Willesden Green Cultural Centre
London Borough of Brent. 2015
Clients: Brent Council & Galliford Try
Located at the intersection of the High Road and Brondesbury Park, Willesden Green Cultural Centre acts as a local landmark and cultural cornerstone for the London Borough of Brent. The scheme incorporates a much-loved Victorian library building and retained London Plane tree at the northern corner of the site. Behind, a glazed entry lobby and public gallery links the retained building (revitalised as a public sitting room) to two new rectilinear 'wings' running along Brondesbury Park and Grange Road respectively. These wings are completed by a south-facing performance space connected to a new pedestrian plaza that will host a variety of outdoor events. At the centre of the new building is a four-storey internal atrium, providing natural daylight and ventilation through operable glazed rooflights. Outside, the main three-storey elevations are expressed as horizontal bands animated by openings and polychromatic brickwork, the colours and patterns of which are derived from the Victorian buildings within the Willesden Green High Road Conservation Area. Once complete in spring 2015, the Cultural Centre will accommodate a library, café, customer services, training, arts and function spaces, as well as the Brent Archive and Brent Museum.

Key milestone for the Library at Willesden Green
Earlier this month the Library at Willesden Green celebrated a key milestone in its construction. The AHMM design team along with building contractors Galliford Try joined the Leader and Deputy Mayor of Brent Council at the topping out ceremony. Due for completion this summer, the Library will act as a local landmark and cultural cornerstone within the borough of Brent. The scheme incorporates a much-loved Victorian library building and retained London Plane tree. Once complete, the project will accommodate a library, café, training facilities, arts and function spaces, as well as the Brent Archive and Brent Museum.
Planning Win for Willesden Green Cultural Centre
Willesden Green Cultural Centre – commissioned by the London Borough of Brent and being delivered by Galliford Try – was issued a resolution to grant planning consent at Committee last night. Located at the intersection of the High Road and Brondesbury Park, the scheme incorporates a much-loved Victorian library building and directly responds to the rich architectural context of the Willesden Green High Road Conservation Area. The Cultural Centre provides a range of facilities including library, café, customer services, training, arts and community function spaces, as well as the Brent Archive and Brent Museum.
Allford Hall Monaghan Morris and Architecture 519 are pleased to announce they have been selected for the Willesden Green Cultural Centre Redevelopment in Brent with Galliford Try Regeneration.
AHMM are leading the masterplan, which incorporates a new 4,000+ sq. m. library and cultural centre, with approximately 90 residential units by Architecture 519. A compact, atrium-centred scheme with a dramatic presence on the High Road will replace the existing 1980's library, creating a community landmark in Brent. Activating the ground floor will be a café, children's library and 'creative cluster' of large spaces tied into the masterplan through a significant new public space by Gillespies Landscape.
The team, supported by URS Scott Wilson for structure and services, expect to submit a planning application in the spring, with completion in 2014 for the entire site.

Q: SCNNode.removeFromParentNode() and rendering loop i have a question regarding removing SCNNodes
I have a function that makes a SCNNodes, when the Node is ready I add it with:
scene.rootNode.addChildNode(node)

then I make a new SCNNode with the function and like to remove the old one and add the new one, unfortunately SCNNode.removeFromParentNode() wont remove the old one:
func cleanUpAndAdd(){
        for node in scene.rootNode.childNodes{
            if node.name == "object" {
                node.removeFromParentNode()
                scene.rootNode.addChildNode(object)
                object.name = "object"
            } else {
                scene.rootNode.addChildNode(object)
                object.name = "object"
            }
        }
    }

It just adds and adds and never removes...
What am I missing?

A: Note that SCNNode.childNodes is a collection (array) and so per Cocoa conventions you should not try to mutate it (SCNNode.addChildNode(_:)) while it's being enumerated. If you do so SceneKit will note generate a runtime exception, but the behaviour is undefined.

A: That code is correct, assuming you have set the node name. You didn't show us that part. How about adding "else print node.name"?

A: So. After hours of troubleshooting I realised that the SCNGeometry I was making contained also the SCNGeometry sources from the previous SCNGeometry.
So the rendering and removing was correct.

Q: How does the direction of maximum variance change with a linear transformation? If I apply a transformation matrix $R$ to a distribution of sample points $D$, does the direction of maximum variance $k$ change in a definable way? By definable I mean can an equation be written in terms of $k$ and $R$ and possibly other things that can predict the new direction of maximum variance?
My original instinct was to think that $k_\mathrm{new} = Rk$ or something, but after thinking about it, this would not be the case, because the transformation could change the variance in different parts of the distribution.
I'm familiar with Principal Component Analysis, but would love an explanation about what is typically expected when transformations are applied.

A: The mapping $f(R): k \mapsto k_\mathrm{new}$ is nonlinear and discontinuous. There probably isn't any analytical expression for it.
As an example, consider a two-dimensional dataset $D$ with a covariance matrix $$C=\left(\begin{array}{cc}4&0\\0&1\end{array}\right),$$ e.g. data coming from a 2D Gaussian with the variance in $x$ equal to $4$, variance in $y$ equal to $1$, and zero correlation between $x$ and $y$. The first PC $k$ (I am using your notation here) points in $x$ direction: $k=(1,0)$.
Now let's apply transformation $$R=\left(\begin{array}{cc}a&0\\0&1\end{array}\right)$$ that is "compressing" or "stretching" the data ellipse horizontally. Set $a=1$ and start gradually decreasing it. The ellipse will compress, but as long as $a>1/2$ it will remain horizontally elongated,  hence $k$ will not change: $k_\mathrm{new}=k$. At $a=1/2$ the covariance becomes spherical, i.e. $k_\mathrm{new}$ is undefined. As soon as $a<1/2$, the ellipse becomes vertically stretched, hence $k_\mathrm{new} = (0,1)$.
We see that $k_\mathrm{new}$, as a function of $R$, does not change continuously: $k_\mathrm{new}$ can suddenly jump elsewhere with a small change in $R$. Hence $k \mapsto k_\mathrm{new}$ definitely cannot be a linear function (proving your original intuition wrong), and most likely there is no analytical expression for it whatsoever.

Shih-Yen Bayer, Nursery school teacher
At last I'm able to work in Germany in the profession that makes me happy.
Taiwanese-born Shih-Yen Bayer arrived in Germany in 2014. After completing adaptation training at a child daycare centre, she received full recognition as a nursery teacher. She now works at a nursery school in Kehl.
Even if things are difficult, don't give up and keep thinking positively!
Shih-Yen Bayer
Reference occupation
Nursery school teacher
Country of origin of qualification
"For me, recognition means a good experience which has not only benefited me professionally."
Taiwanese-born Shih-Yen Bayer came to Germany because of love in 2014, bringing with her a Masters degree in Family Pedagogy and Early Childhood Education. She had already gained professional experience as a nursery teacher in her home country. This led her to assume that she would also be able to find a job in her chosen occupation in Germany. "I sent off applications to nursery school, but was unsuccessful because I didn't have any experience in Germany." Until this point, she had also been unaware that she would not be permitted to work as a nursery teacher in Germany without acquiring recognition. Shih-Yen was initially extremely disappointed.
However, she displayed great persistence by studying hard to learn German and completing two practical placements at nursery schools. Her husband was then able to provide a crucial piece of advice. He had found out via the Internet that his wife needed to undergo a recognition procedure for the relevant professional qualification as a state-recognised nursery school teacher. Before Shih-Yen Bayer submitted her application to the appropriate competent body, she sought support from the Recognition Guidance Service of the State of Bremen (Senate Office for Economic Affairs, Labour and Ports), an agency which is financed via the "Integration through Training – (IQ)" funding programme and was able to help her to collate the necessary documentation. Shih-Yen had already arranged for her certificates to be translated. The competent body in question, the Senate Office for Children and Education, was then able to deal with everything very quickly. "I only visited once and submitted all my documents."
The good preparations that Shih-Yen Bayer had made certainly paid dividends. She received the result only three months later, when she learned that her degree had been recognised. The only thing now preventing her from exercising the profession of nursery school teacher was the practical element of the relevant vocational education and training. In order to demonstrate this, she needed to complete adaptation period. Shih-Yen Bayer showed initiative by carrying out her own online research and soon came across the childcare centre run by the Parish of St. Thomas in Bremen. She visited the centre for a brief period of observation before going on to complete her adaptation period there. During this time, she received specialist and language support from the Technical School of Social Pedagogy and Special Education, a state-recognised private institution which comes under the auspices of the Bremen Joint Educational Institute. Shih-Yen attended additional theoretical modules at the school twice a week and was finally able to overcome the greatest hurdle that faced her – the oral and written final examination. "I found the language difficult. I had to do a lot of talking, and it was really demanding and stressful. But my teacher encouraged me, and told me that I would gain experience by making mistakes." In the end, everything worked out. Although this was not an easy time for Shih-Yen Bayer, she found it to be highly instructive. "The adaptation period was a good experience for me. I learned a lot. I didn't just gain professional knowledge, I now have a much better understanding of the German culture and way of life."
Shih-Yen Bayer is now working as a nursery school teacher at a kindergarten in Kehl and is also continuing with her studies of German. She sums up the whole experience with some degree of pride. "There were times when I wasn't sure whether I would make it. But there were always people there to back me up. That gave me the strength to carry on. I'm really happy here and enjoy working with the children, my colleagues and the parents."
The interview with Shih-Yen Bayer took place in September 2017. During the recognition procedure, she received advice and support from the Recognition Guidance Service of the State of Bremen (in conjunction with the Chamber of Employees and the Bremerhaven Initial and Advanced Training Centre) and from the Bremen Joint Educational Institute. Both of these institutions are sub-projects within the scope of the "Integration through Qualification" funding programme (IQ).
My procedure in brief
Shih-Yen Bayer brings with her from Taiwan a master's degree in family pedagogy and early childhood education as well as professional experience as a nursery teacher.
With the help of the Bremen regional guidance service, she applies for recognition in Germany as a nursery teacher.
The master's qualification is recognised. Due to a lack of practical experience in the training, Shih-Yen Bayer must complete an adaptation period.
With the support of the childcare centre run by the Parish of St. Thomas in Bremen, she passes the final examination and receives full recognition.
Today, Shih-Yen Bayer is working as a nursery school teacher at a kindergarten in Kehl and continues to improve her German.

To the glossary
German: Berufserfahrung
Also: Berufspraxis
Working lawfully in a profession and gaining professional experience in the process. In Germany or in another country.
German: Anerkennung
Also: Anerkennung der Berufsqualifikation, Gleichwertigkeitsfeststellung, Gleichwertigkeit
In this case recognition means that a foreign professional qualification is legally equivalent to a German professional qualification. This means that the foreign professional qualification is recognised in Germany. The equivalence is valid for a specific German reference occupation.
There are different types of recognition:
Full recognition
A foreign professional qualification is legally equivalent to the German reference occupation.
Partial recognition
A foreign professional qualification is only partially equivalent to the German reference occupation. The reason for this is that there are substantial differences between the foreign professional qualification and the German professional qualification.
In this case, there are two options in order to still achieve full recognition:
Successful participation in refresher training
Successful participation in a compensation measure
No recognition
A foreign professional qualification is not equivalent to the German reference occupation. The reason for this is that the differences between the foreign professional qualification and the German reference occupation are too great.
Recognition must be requested by means of an application for recognition. This then begins the recognition procedure.
Professional qualification
German: Professional qualification
Professional qualifications are qualifications for which evidence of training is provided by means of evidence of formal qualifications or qualification certificates These lead to a clearly defined profession. Evidence of a professional qualification may also be provided by professional experience gained in Germany or abroad.
These are examples of professional qualifications:
Vocational qualification
Advanced vocational education and training
Approbation or authorisation to practise a profession
Authorisation to use the designation of occupation
The recognition procedure exists for professional qualifications from abroad. This checks the equivalence of the vocational qualification.
Recognition procedures for higher education qualifications exist only for higher education qualifications leading to a regulated profession. For example: Dentist
There is no recognition procedure for higher education qualifications which do not lead to a regulated profession. The statement of comparability exists for these higher education qualifications. This is the case, for example, for geologists.
German: zuständige Stelle
Competent authority is the name in this case for administrative bodies and institutions. These administrative bodies and institutions implement the recognition procedure on the basis of the applicable legal and administrative provisions.
German: Berufsausbildung
Vocational education and training is training in a specific regulated profession. In vocational education and training, trainees learn all of the vocational knowledge and skills required.
There are 2 types of vocational education and training:
Dual vocational education and training
School-based vocational education and training
In each case the vocational education and training is governed by a training and examination regulation.
Dual vocational education and training takes place in a training company and in vocational school. Dual training occupations include for example:
Vehicle mechatronics technician
Management assistant for retail services
The school-based vocational education and training takes place in a full-time vocational school or an alternative type of vocational school. School-based training occupations exist in the areas of technology, health and nursery education. Such occupations include, for example:
Nursery teacher
State-certified IT technical engineer
Vocational education and training in Germany takes 2 to 3.5 years. This depends on the occupation but also on the school leaving certificate. The duration of training is often shorter in the case of the upper secondary school-leaving certificate.
Adaptation period
German: Anpassungslehrgang
An adaptation period is a compensation measure for regulated professions. An individual trains in the areas they are lacking for recognition of a foreign professional qualification. Successful participation enables the individual to compensate for the substantial differences compared to the German reference occupation. The individual is then still able to receive full recognition of their foreign professional qualification.
During an adaptation period, the individual works in the relevant regulated profession. They are supervised by a person qualified in this profession. For example by someone who is a registered general nurse in a hospital.
The adaptation period is sometimes also additional training. An adaptation period lasts for a maximum of three years. The duration depends on which differences are specified in the recognition notice and on what the individual still has to learn.
German: Kammer
Also: berufsständische Körperschaft, Standesvertretung
Institution which administers individuals in the same or similar profession. There are different types of chambers. For example:
Chamber of Crafts and Trades
Chamber of Physicians
Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK)
A chamber undertakes government tasks and looks after the interests of the members. A chamber has a range of responsibilities. For example:
Specifying training content
Establishing examination guidelines
Issuing authorisations to practise
A chamber may also be the competent authority for the recognition of professional qualifications.
Application for recognition
German: Anerkennungsantrag
Also: Antrag auf Anerkennung
The application for recognition is generally made via an application form. This allows individuals to apply for recognition of their foreign professional qualification.
The application for recognition is sent to the competent authority together with the necessary documents. Or it can be submitted in person. The application for recognition can be downloaded from the website of the competent authority.
Occasionally, an application for recognition is not available for download. If so, the person must apply without an application form. In this case the person must write a letter to the competent authority. The person must apply for the recognition procedure in the letter. The competent authority will provide information on how this is done.

It has recently occurred to me that all of the great scholars, lecturers and sages were saying the exact same thing. So it is nothing new or even revolutionary what the newest New Age thinkers are saying because they are saying the exact same thing. It just needs to be said in different ways so that everyone can get it.
It is that what you think you become. If you think you can you can, if you think you can't, you're right too. Whatever you put out is what you will get back. Nothing new. It's all the same and it applies to whatever you put your mind to. It doesn't matter what business you are in - whatever you put out will come back to you.
Napoleon Hill Made it 15 lessons, Jack Canfield made it into Chicken Soup, Steven Covey gave us 7 Habits, Depak Chopra gave us 20 Spiritual Laws and Rhonda Byrne told us The Secret. Wayne Dyer told us to Believe it Before We can See It, while Mike Dooley gives us Infinite Possibilities and Napoleon Hill told us to Think and Grow Rich through the Laws of Success.
It all comes back to the same thing. Heck even the Bible told us about the Golden Rule when Jesus told us to do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Confucius said do not do to other people what you do not want them to do to you. It's the Golden f****** rule! Do unto others as you would have them do to you in the same exact circumstance.
What does this mean? It means you need to think before you do anything. There is the word - THINK. You can know everything about anatomy. You can know everything about physiology. You can know everything about psychology. It all comes down to what you think. And I don't think anyone can really tell us how the mind works.
And why do you think what you think? Because of the way you were raised, the things that were put into your head as you were growing up. We come out of the womb with the universal truths and universal energy and universal knowledge. But then, based on the life and family and government and religion we were born into some of the truths left us. The belief systems that were taught to us by those people and institutions bring us to where we are today. And what we think we become (Buddha). In order to change what you think you need to change some of those beliefs.

Chris Hillman Forges Ahead With New Music | Brainstormin Online!
Chris Hillman (born December 4, 1944, Los Angeles, California) was one of the original members of The Byrds, which in 1965 included, Roger McGuinn, Gene Clark, David Crosby, and Michael Clarke.
Chris Hillman, the youngest of four children, spent his early years on his family's ranch home in rural North San Diego County. He has credited his older sister with exciting his interest in country and folk music when she returned from college in the late 1950s with folk music records.
Chris soon began watching many of the country music shows broadcast on local television in southern California at the time, such as Town Hall Party, Spade Cooley and Cal's Corral.
Hillman's mother encouraged his musical interests, and bought him his first guitar, but shortly after he developed an interest in bluegrass, and fell in love with the mandolin.
In mid-1964, Chris considered quitting music and enrolling at UCLA, but he received an offer from his former manager and producer Jim Dickson to join a new band, The Byrds. Chris was recruited to play electric bass guitar, although he had never picked up the instrument before.
After the Byrds, you joined the Flying Burrito Brothers, Stephen Stills's Manassass, Souther, Hillman, Furay Band, The Desert Rose Band and Chris Hillman & Herb Pederson.
