Made How
A ferris wheel is an amusement park ride consisting of a large vertical wheel with places for people to sit or stand spaced evenly around the outer circumference. In operation, the ferris wheel revolves about a horizontal axis, and the riders are alternately lifted and then lowered as they are carried around the wheel in a circle. When the wheel stops, the people in the seat or platform at ground level exit the ride, and new riders take their place. The wheel then revolves a short distance until the next seat or platform is at ground level, allowing more people to exit and enter. This procedure is repeated until all the seats or platforms are filled with new riders, at which time the wheel is set in motion to undergo several complete revolutions. Although the name "ferris wheel" was not used until the 1890s, the wheel itself has been a part of human festivities for hundreds of years.
The earliest designs of wheels used for amusement rides may have been based on the large, circular wheels used to lift water for irrigation. In fact, knowing the human spirit, it is probable that adventuresome children used these water wheels for entertainment from the time they were first developed in about 200 B.C.
English traveler Peter Mundy described what he called a "pleasure wheel" with swings for seats after he visited a street fair in Turkey in 1620. In England, small handturned wheels were called "ups-and-downs" as early as 1728.
Whatever they were called, amusement wheels found their way to many parts of the world. One of the first wheels in the United States was built in 1848 by Antonio Maguino, who used it to draw crowds to his rural park and picnic grounds in Walton Spring, Georgia. As the concept of mixing amusement rides with park and picnic facilities caught on, several companies began manufacturing wheels of various designs. In 1870, Charles W.P. Dare of Brooklyn made several wood wheels of 20-and 30-ft (6.1-and 9.1-m) diameters, which he sold as the Dare Aerial Swing. The Conderman Brothers of Indiana made an even larger wheel when they developed a 35-ft (10.7-m) metal wheel in the 1880s.
The race for larger wheels culminated in early 1893 when American bridge builder and engineer, George Washington Gale Ferris, began building a 250-ft (76.2-m) wheel for the 1893 Colombian Exposition in Chicago. Designed like a bicycle wheel, with a stiff steel outer rim hung from the center axle by steel spokes under tension, the wheel could carry as many as 1,440 passengers at a time in 36 enclosed cars. The center axle was 33 in (84 cm) in diameter and 45.5 f (13.9 m) in length. It weighed 46.5 tons (42.2 metric tons) and was the largest steel forging ever produced at the time. The giant wheel opened on June 21, 1893, and drew more than 1.4 million paying customers during the 19 weeks it was in operation. The overwhelming success of Ferris' design ensured that his name would be forever linked with such wheels.
One of the people who rode the ferris wheel at the Colombian Exposition was American inventor and bridge builder William E. Sullivan. Sullivan was fascinated with the wheel and rode it many times. What was especially attractive to him was the possibility of making a smaller wheel that could be taken down and moved from one park or fairground to another. Drawing on his experience with bridges, he designed a 45-ft (13.7-m) transportable wheel with twelve three-passenger seats in 1900. In 1906 he formed the Eli Bridge Company and started manufacturing his wheel in Roodhouse, Illinois. Later he moved the company to Jacksonville, Illinois, where it remains in operation today. Most of the ferris wheels found in carnivals and fairs in the United States are made by the Eli Bridge Company.
Because of the unique design of a ferris wheel, most of the component parts are fabricated by the manufacturer. Steel is the most common raw material and is used to make the trailer chassis, wheel support towers, wheel spokes, and wheel crossmembers. A variety of structural steel shapes are used depending on the application. They include square tubing, round tubing, angles, channels, and wide-flanged beams. Aluminum diamond tread plate is used for the entrance and exit walk-ways and for the operator's platform.
Aluminum is used to make the seats and the drive rims. The drive rims are rolled out of aluminum angle stock and are attached to the spokes to form a large circle about 10 ft (3 m) smaller in diameter than the outer rim of the wheel itself. Two rubber drive wheels press against the drive rims on each side to rotate the wheel. Aluminum is used in this application because the constant rubbing of the drive wheels quickly removes the paint on the rims, exposing the bare metal. If steel were used, it would rust.
The cushions used on the seats are molded from a self-skinning polyurethane foam. This material forms a solid, smooth skin on the outside, while the inside remains a compressible foam. Nylon is used for some of the bushings, and a phenolic plastic is used in some of the electrical components. Support cables within the wheel structure may have a plastic cover for appearance and protection from the elements. The electrical rings that carry electrical power from the hubs to the lights along the rotating spokes are made of copper, and the brushes that bring the power to the rings are made of carbon.
Some ferris wheel components are purchased from other manufacturers and are installed on the ferris wheel when it is built. These include the axles, brakes, tires, and wheels on the trailer. Other purchased components include the electric drive motors, the electrical wires and cables, and the electrical light bulbs and sockets.
Ferris wheels that are designed to be transported on the road from one location to another must conform to the overall width, height, and length restrictions for highway vehicles. Although these restrictions vary from state to state, most states limit the trailer width to 8.5 ft (2.6 m), the height to 13.5 ft (4.1 m), and the length to 55 ft (16.8 m). No matter how big or small the ferris wheel is when it is opened and in operation, it must fold down to meet these restrictions when it is travelling on the highway.
The ferris wheel must also be designed to operate safely. This requires calculations to ensure the horizontal and vertical forces of the fully loaded wheel can be supported when the wheel is in operation. It also requires the design of safety interlocks to prevent the wheel from revolving during loading and unloading operations, and to prevent the operator from inadvertently operating the wheel in an unsafe manner.
The manufacturing processes used to make ferris wheels varies with the design of the wheel and the manufacturer. Most of the components are built in different parts of the shop before they are brought to the main construction area for final assembly. Here is a typical sequence of operations used to build a transportable ferris wheel used in carnivals and county fairs. In operation, the wheel described is about 60 ft (18.3 m) in diameter with a capacity to carry up to 48 riders in 16 seats.
Building the chassis
1 The trailer chassis forms the base for the ferris wheel, both when it is being transported on the highway and when it is in operation. The component parts of the chassis

are cut to length, either with a metal-cutting saw or with a torch, and are welded together. Two vertical support posts are welded to the forward section of the chassis. These posts hold the upper end of the two wheel support towers when they are in their lowered position for travelling.
2 The completed chassis is then sandblasted to remove any scale and spatter formed during the welding operation. This ensures a smooth surface appearance and prevents the scale from chipping off later and leaving patches of bare steel.
3 The chassis is then coated with a rust-in-hibiting primer. After the primer has dried, one or more coats of finish paint are applied in the desired color.
Installing the towers
4 The two wheel support towers are fabricated and painted elsewhere and are lifted into position on the chassis. The lower ends are attached to hinges on each side of the chassis, and the upper ends rest on the two support posts. The towers include ladders welded along one edge to provide access to the electrical rings and brushes at the wheel hubs and to the electrical drive motors and wheels that tum the drive rim on each side. The center axle is then installed between the wheel hubs at the tops of the two towers.
5 A long hydraulic cylinder is attached between the chassis and the wheel support tower on each side, about halfway along the length of the tower. These hydraulic cylinders are used to raise the towers into their upright position when the ferris wheel is being set up for operation. The cylinders are secured in place with a pivot pin at each end.
6 A separate lateral support arm is attached near the top of each wheel support tower. These arms each consist of two pieces of square tubing, with one piece slightly smaller in cross section so it slides inside the other. When the wheel support towers are raised for operation, the lateral support arms are pulled out to the side and the inner section of each is extended and locked in place with a pin. Two other pieces of square tubing are hinged to the chassis frame on each side and swing out to attach to the bases of the lateral supports. This gives the ferris wheel the required side-to-side stability it needs.
7 Hydraulic and electrical lines are routed inside the chassis frame pieces where they will be protected. The operator's control station is installed and connected. The chassis axles, brakes, tires, wheels, and stabilizer jacks may be installed at this time or they may be installed after all other work is complete.
Installing the spokes
8 Sixteen pairs of spokes run from the center hubs at the tops of the towers out to the seats. To install the spokes in the factory, the first pair of spokes is laid flat on the factory floor, and two crossmembers are installed between the spokes. One crossmember is located at the point where the drive rims will be attached, which is about 5 ft (1.5 m) in from the outer end of the spokes. A pair of curved sections of the drive rims are also bolted in place on each side at the same point. Only one end of the drive rim sections are bolted, leaving the other end free. This procedure is repeated for the remaining spokes, crossmembers, and drive rim sections until they form a stack. The inner ends of each pair of spokes are pinned

to the pair below it. V-shaped lighting booms are installed between the center of every other outer crossmember as the stack is assembled. This overlapping pattern of lights produces a double-star effect.
9 The stack is then lifted onto the trailer with an overhead crane, and the top pair of spokes is pinned to the hubs. In operation, the spokes are all pulled into the vertical position when the towers are raised. The spokes are then pinned to the hubs, one pair at a time, and the free ends of the drive rim sections are swung down and bolted to the adjacent spokes to form the wheel—like a paper fan being unfolded.
10 Electrical cables are connected from the electrical rings at the wheel hubs to each lighting boom. Mechanical support cables are installed between the ends of the spokes around the outer circumference of the wheel. Other mechanical cables are installed in an x-pattern between each pair of spokes to give additional stability.
Finishing the wheel
11The entrance and exit stairs and walkways, safety fences, and trim pieces are fabricated, painted, and installed. The seats are fabricated and painted. In operation, four of the seats are carried attached to the wheel. The remaining seats are carried separately on the trailer and are manually lifted and pinned into place after the wheel is erected.
As with any amusement park ride, safety is the primary concern of both the manufacturer and the operator. Current safety regulations governing ferris wheels vary from city to city and state to state. The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) is in the process of developing a comprehensive standard for the design, testing, manufacturing, and operation of all amusement park rides. Ferris wheel manufacturers and amusement park operators are actively participating in this process.
Having provided entertainment for several hundred years, if not several thousand years, the ferris wheel will probably continue to be a pleasurable experience for many years to come. Although roller coasters and other thrill rides may dominate amusement parks, the ferris wheel will still give riders the gentle thrill of being carried up in the air in an open seat to hang high above the crowds on a warm summer evening.

LA Best Babies Network congratulates MCH Access on its rollout of the Welcome Baby! universal home visitation pilot program and is proud to have partnered with First 5 LA in its planning and implementation. We wish the program every success.
The newly launched Welcome Baby! universal home visitation pilot program has begun home visits to families of babies born at California Hospital Medical Center. Based on similar successful programs in Europe; Canada; and Santa Barbara, California, the program offers education and support to new families. The Welcome Baby! pilot, funded by First 5 LA, under its Best Start LA initiative, is the result of several years' work. LA Best Babies Network helped design and implement the program which will be run by Maternal and Child Health Access, a non-profit social service agency. California Hospital Medical Center, the lead partner with MCH Access, is providing technical and administrative support. As the name implies, universal home visitation is voluntary, and open to all families regardless of their socio-economic status.
"For new moms, having a baby is such a life-changing experience, and every family needs support,'' said Lili McGuinness, the Clinical Staff Supervisor for the Welcome Baby! program.
Luz Chacon, the program's director, is also excited about the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of mothers and infants, especially through a program that will eventually reach thousands of families.
The plan is to hire 22 home visitors, or "parent coaches," who will make home visits designed to support families as early as the 20th week of a woman's pregnancy, on through most of a child's first year. Mothers who choose to participate will receive as many as seven visits, including two prenatal visits, one in-hospital visit by a maternal and child health specialist, and four postnatal visits, including one by a registered nurse within 72 hours of delivery. Another goal of home visitation is to connect families to additional resources and support available within their communities.
During a typical visit, parents might learn how to maintain a child's immunization schedule, create a safe environment for their child, know if the baby is hitting early developmental milestones, and learn how to overcome struggles with breastfeeding. Studies have long demonstrated that breast milk is the optimal food for babies. Home visitors are also taught to recognize signs of perinatal depression and, if necessary, refer a woman for more intensive support. Home visitors recognize the importance of remaining non-judgmental and respecting parents as the experts when it comes to their child. The Welcome Baby! philosophy is to build on parents' strengths instead of pointing out weaknesses.
Research shows that home visitation is a powerful and cost-effective tool in increasing the health and wellbeing of families and communities at large. It promotes better parent-child interactions, birth outcomes, and more efficient use of healthcare services. Support for broadening the availability of home visitation is gaining momentum in government circles. First 5 LA predicts that federal funding for home visitation will jump to $8.3 billion by 2019.
L.A. County, with more than 150,000 births each year, and an ethnically and economically diverse population, is the ideal place to conduct this pilot. Over the course of the pilot, the home visitors will record their research and observations in a web-based registry created by LA Best Babies Network, adding to the store of data on this promising strategy.
Dr. Robin Johnson, the Family Engagement Director for the Network, believes that this person-to-person approach can yield dramatic, positive results. "It helps families detect problems before it's too late to intervene," says Dr. Johnson.

"Unlike other great civilisations such as the Romans and the Ancient Egyptians, the Mayan empire did not arise from the banks of a mighty river. Much of the Mayan world is in fact devoid of even the smallest river or lake. Then why did they populate Yucatan? The Maya believed that the freshwater pools, 'cenotes', dotted across the area were sacred portals to the underworld. They are indeed portals, but rather to an incredible underground labyrinthine systems of rivers. Only now being properly explored and understood, this secret world was created by nature in a unique chain of dramatic events of extraterrestrial origin."

Check out how The Witcher 3 Could Look Like in First-Person
By Archie Paras
Reddit's member 'tiff92' has released an image, showing what The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt would look like in first-person mode.
You can view the screenshot below:
While a first person perspective would not suit The Witcher 3' gameplay system, it does look pretty interesting, especially the signs' effects.
The highly anticipated Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Patch 1.05 is now live on the PC for Steam and GOG Galaxy users. The patch, which is about 248.4 MB in size, contains the fix for the XP bug.
We have recently reported that Marcin Momot, Community Manager and Coordinator for CD Projekt has stated that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt does not have a level cap, something that should really please fans of the game.
A new mod for the PC version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has been made available, named E3FX which as the name suggests it tries to mimic the E3 2013 trailer. You can check out and download the mod here.
CD Projekt RED has finally released the new update for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with the free DLC on Xbox One, PC and PlayStation 4. The update includes a sexy new look for Yennefer and a new mission for Geralt.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt had the biggest UK release of the year so far, crashing Battlefield Hardline's week one sales by 53 per cent. 63% of physical sales were on the PlayStation 4, followed by 32% on the Xbox One and 5% on PC. The majority of PC sales were digital though. On top of that it seems that it managed to top both the Steam and Green Man Gaming charts as well.
The game has received another patch and the patch notes state an improvement of the texture rendering quality on High and Ultra settings.
The Witcher 3 Hunter's Config is a nice little tool offering easy access to graphical options, and it's certainly worth a look.
As we have previously covered a few adjustments in the ini files can improve the grass quality in The Witcher 3, as well as the performance. A workaround on how to run HairWorks on AMD GPUs without crippling performance, has also been made available, enabling AMD GPU users to enjoy The Witcher 3 with HairWorks enabled, while getting better performance than GeForce users not using a Maxwell architecture Nvidia GPU.
A set of beautiful 4K screenshots of the PC version and some 4K gameplay footage, demonstrates just how amazing The Witcher 3 can look.
The Witcher 3 is available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. We will bring you any new information on The Witcher 3 as soon as it becomes available.

"On December 24th in the year 1818 the curate of the newly erected parish-church St. Nicola of Oberndorf, Mr. Joseph Mohr, handed over a poem to the deputy organist, Franz Gruber (at that time also teacher at Arnsdorf) with the request to compose a suitable melody for two solo voices with choir and the accompaniment of one guitar.
"The latter handed his simple composition over to the musically trained clergyman as requested—an exact copy of the original is attached hereto—[and] his composition was produced immediately on Christmas Eve with great applause.
"Mr. Joseph Mohr, the originator of this and other spiritual poems, died on December 4, 1848….
In this letter—the only known statement by either Mohr or Gruber concerning their famous hymn—we hear Gruber not only describe the birth of "Silent Night," but also allude to its spread. In 1819 a master organ builder named Karl Mauracher came to their church in Oberndorf to work on the organ (this has led many to assume that Mohr requested Gruber to compose a melody accompanied by guitar because the organ was broken). That organ builder—the "well-known man from Zillertal"—took a copy of Mohr and Gruber's Christmas carol with him when he headed home. He shared it with other people, and in the 1830s the hymn went viral, particularly after appearing in print in 1838.
As for Mohr and Gruber, they went their separate ways soon after the Christmas of 1818. The young Joseph Mohr (1792-1848) was reappointed elsewhere, while Gruber (1787-1863) remained around Salzburg the rest of his life.
All that noted, perhaps the most valuable yet least mentioned part of the story of "Silent Night" is the context in which it was written and first sung. In 1818 Oberndorf was in the grips of a terrible economic depression. The economy of Oberndorf had long depended on salt and the salt trade, but that trade had declined during recent Napoleonic wars (1792-1815) and never fully recovered. Additionally, in 1816 the Congress of Vienna had split the Principality of Salzburg between Bavaria and Austria, with the result that Oberndorf was now separated from Laufen, which had long been its town center (Oberndorf being more or less a bedroom community). Simply put, the people who first heard and sung this Christmas carol were boat builders, laborers, and the families thereof experiencing troubled times, who would not have sung of the incarnation of the Son of God with the sentimental spirit common today, but instead with far more of a sense of appreciation and need.
Sources: UMCDiscipleship.org, Stillenacht.at, Hymnary.org, Inmozartsfootsteps.com, and The Psalter Hymnal Handbook.
In spite of the sentimentality that many people add to it, "Silent Night" is a solid hymn that expresses awe and wonder at the incarnation of the Son of God. With its simple yet beautiful lyrics, it leads us in acknowledging and responding to the coming of the Son of God to save us from our sins.
This and each of the following verses begin the same way, namely by describing the night of Jesus' birth as both a silent night and a holy night. What reason do we have to believe that it was a silent night? In what sense was the night of Jesus' birth a silent night? It was silent insofar as it was a seemingly uneventful night in a land that was relatively peaceful and calm. We don't know all that was going on that night in Bethlehem and the surrounding regions; there was certainly some nighttime activity and noise, especially given the extra bustle surrounding the Roman census underway. That noted, the Bible paints a picture of a land at rest, seen most notably in Luke 2:8. There we hear about "shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over the flocks by night." From that and the rest of Scripture we get the idea that the night of Jesus' birth was just another night, and yet—at the same time—a holy night as well. The night was holy, meaning set apart from other nights, because the Virgin Mary had just given birth to a holy infant, whom we will identify in the next verse.
For now we close this verse simply by looking on at the virgin mother and child and bidding the child sleep in heavenly peace. That final statement is likely not a command or a statement of great theological significance so much as it is an expression of our joy at the birth of this child. To this day it's not unheard of for a parent to say or at least think such a statement when gazing upon his or her sleeping newborn, and not out of a desire that the newborn sleep (especially because the baby already is), but rather as an expression of the parent's own joy. In that same spirit and yet with infinitely greater wonder, we finish this opening verse by looking on Virgin Mary's newborn and bidding him sleep in heavenly peace.
In this second verse we shift our attention from the Virgin Mary in the stable (Luke 2:1-7) to the shepherds in the fields nearby, and more specifically to the heavenly host that appeared to them, announcing the birth of the Savior (Luke 2:8-14). Luke 2:9-10 tell us that "an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. And the angel said to them, 'Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord." Here in verse 2 we summarize that encounter, emphasizing especially the message of those final words: Christ, the Savior, is born!
This verse goes beyond the news of the angel and draws in other Bible passages to lead us in acknowledging and marveling at the birth of Jesus. Who was and is this baby according to Scripture? He is the Son of God (John 3:18; Heb 4:14; 1 John 4:14). He is the one from whose face love's pure light beams radiantly (John 1:4; 1 John 4:10). He is the one whose birth marks the dawn of redeeming grace, that is to say, the fullness of time in which God sent his Son to redeem sinners (Gal 4:4). We who profess this Jesus as our Lord and Savior most often focus on and rejoice in his crucifixion and resurrection, but far be it from us not to acknowledge and marvel at his earlier coming!
In this final verse we respond to the birth of the Jesus by asking God to help us worship him. Our plea isn't worded as well as it could or should be—on the surface it sounds as if we praying to the star the Magi saw (Matt 2:1-2)—but so long as we understand the star as God's means to lead the Magi to Jesus, we're not likely to be confused. Our plea, faithfully prayed, is to the Father, asking him to work in our hearts that we might worship the Savior he sent, our King.
Is that your prayer? Is that your prayer not only this month, but for the year to come?


Tired of Romans? Bored with Victorians? Had enough of the Home Front? Then you need a change of historical scenery – why not try the English Civil Wars?
From 1642 until 1651 Britain was consumed by vicious civil wars, as a rebellious Parliament fought to limit the power of the King. Communities and families were split down the middle, brothers and friends faced each other across battlefields, vast areas of the country were fought over, and hundreds of thousands of lives were lost through hunger, disease and battle. No part of the country escaped and we still live with the legacy of those bloody years.
The period is an excellent subject for a KS1/2 local history topic, and contains all of the ingredients for a KS3 British History study.

I'm evaluating my *other* writing projects right now, and realizing I write about mothers constantly. Probably because I'm so deep into the nurturing phase that is early childhood, I am studying the mother-child relationship from all angles.
Here it is: The relationship between mothers and young children, particularly nurslings, is the most intimate of all human relationships.
I know everything that goes into their little bodies, and I see everything that comes out. I know how much sleep they get, and whether the sleep was good. They have preferences and favorites and foods they absolutely will not eat, and I have to know it all. If my husband expected these things of me, I would go berserk.
For these short years, as my helpless newborns grow into schoolgirls, I am still a part of them. We are sharing our lives in a very intimate way. There is love, yes, but there is feeding and cleaning and teaching and explaining and helping them understand that life is not fair. My heart broke yesterday when 2008 asked me why some people hit. There is heartbreak and there is joy.
There are also French kisses, because my baby thinks licking other people's teeth is hilarious.
Beneath it all, there there also is a slow process of moving further and further from each other. 2008 has started having preschool experiences that I do not share. 2010 has started remembering her dreams, which gives her some mental privacy. They are carving out pieces of the world for themselves, and it is amazing.
The migration from blogspot would have been faster if I had typed each post from memory.
Here's what you missed: I finished my contemporary adult manuscript, sent it to readers and incorporated their feedback into the draft. I'm querying agents next month, so cross your fingers.
My YA manuscript didn't sit well with me, so I put it on notice and started another adult manuscript that has been kicking around inside my brain for a year.
If you are my contemporary, you know how difficult it is to find the ideal family friends, where the spouses all like one another, the kids get along like gangbusters, you share the same values and love vacationing together. I am still waiting to meet our family's perfect mate.
This manuscript has that! For three chapters.
My working title is Things Fall Apart (with apologies to Achebe) and I am loving it, emotional turmoil and all.
Welcome to the improved website and migrated blog. I'm sad to see the blog post tags go, but I love iWeb. Mwah, Apple!

Athletics "Considering" Matt Wieters
By Jeff Todd | January 31, 2019 at 10:51pm CDT
The Athletics are at least "considering" pursuit of veteran backstop Matt Wieters, according to Jon Heyman of MLB Network (via Twitter). It's unclear just how much interest the Oakland organization has; multiple unnamed rival organizations are also said to be involved.
Wieters, now 32, first qualified for free agency after the 2015 season. At the time, he was considered a high-quality, everyday backstop, but he was also coming off of two injury-plagued campaigns and took a qualifying offer to remain with the Orioles. Despite a subpar 2016 campaign, the Nationals promised him $21MM over two years (while also giving Wieters an opt-out chance that he did not ultimately take).
Add it all up, and Wieters owns a tepid .235/.303/.376 batting line in 1,200 plate appearances over the past three campaigns. Though he still draws average reviews for his blocking and throwing, Wieters has graded out as a negative in the pitch framing department. Of course, he's also a respected veteran who seemed to suit the pitchers who worked with him in D.C., so there's room for interpretation regarding his defensive value.
Wieters obviously does not profile as a regular receiver at this point, but the former fifth overall pick does still seem like a reasonable target for the right team. The fact that he hits from both sides of the plate adds to the appeal, along with his clubhouse gravitas. For the Athletics, there's clearly room to improve a depth chart that's presently topped by Josh Phegley and Chris Herrmann. Wieters ought to be an affordable option and still has a bit of pop; perhaps the A's will stake a bet on the hope that he'll be reinvigorated in a timeshare situation.

Bud Norris Hires Ballengee Group
By Jeff Todd | January 31, 2019 at 9:47pm CDT
Free agent reliever Bud Norris has made a late-breaking agency change. Per Jon Heyman of MLB Network, via Twitter, Norris is now represented by the Ballengee Group.
Norris, who's closing in on his 34th birthday, evidently hasn't been pleased with the opportunities he has been afforded to this point on the open market. He's coming off of a $3MM deal that he signed with the Cardinals last February, just before the start of Spring Training.
The St. Louis org received a quality contribution for its money, as Norris tossed 57 2/3 innings of 3.59 ERA ball with 10.5 K/9 and 3.3 BB/9. He also recorded 28 saves after stepping into the closer's role for the Cards. Norris sat at 95 mph with his four-seam fastball, continued to get good results with a cutter, and reached a 12% swinging-strike rate for the second-straight season.
That showing seemed likely to boost Norris's market standing, but there has been little in the way of reported interest to this point. That isn't necessarily unusual for a non-star reliever. Still, with just two weeks left until camps begin to open, his market outlook is unclear. MLBTR predicted that Norris would secure a two-year, $12MM deal on the open market, though that obviously represents only a best guess after contemplating a wide range of plausible outcomes.
Reds "In Serious Discussions" With Zach Duke
The Reds are engaged "in serious discussions" with free agent southpaw Zach Duke, according to C. Trent Rosecrans and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic (via Twitter). The likelihood of a deal coming together is not yet known.
It remains an active winter for the Cincinnati front office, which increasingly seems to have created an opportunity to compete in what could be a tightly packed NL Central division. Among other things, the club has targeted lefty relief assets, having already agreed to minors deals with Buddy Boshers and Ian Krol.
Bringing in Duke would give the Cincy bullpen a much-needed option against opposing lefty hitters. Though Amir Garrett showed well in the pen last year, he's still not fully polished and actually has been just as effective against righties at the MLB level. Otherwise, the club stands to rely upon the above-noted minor-league signees along with Wandy Peralta and Brandon Finnegan, both of whom are looking to bounce back from rough 2018 campaigns.
Duke had his own stumbles last year, particularly after joining the Mariners in a mid-season trade. He ended the season with a 4.15 ERA in 52 innings, with 8.8 K/9 against 3.6 BB/9. But Duke surrendered only a single long ball on the year and checked in with a monster 59.4% groundball rate. He also held opposing lefties to a meager .220/.283/.319 batting line.

Diamondbacks Designate Jake Barrett
The Diamondbacks have designated righty Jake Barrett for assignment, per a club announcement. His roster spot goes to just-signed righty Greg Holland.
Barrett, 27, is a former third-round pick who has thrown 93 1/3 innings for the Snakes over the past three years. He owns a 4.05 cumulative ERA with 8.5 K/9 against 4.3 BB/9.
Though he got off to a promising start back in 2016, when he worked off of a mid-nineties heater to generate a 12.3% swinging-strike rate, Barrett has since taken a step back. His whiff rate has trended down and his walk rate has gone up, leaving him with little in the way of MLB opportunities in 2018. He was effective last year at Triple-A, though, pitching to a 2.87 ERA with 11.3 K/9 and 4.9 BB/9 in 53 1/3 innings over 42 appearances.

Rockies Avoid Arbitration With Nolan Arenado
The Rockies have agreed to terms on a 2019 salary with star third baseman Nolan Arenado, according a team announcement. He'll receive $26MM, per Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic (via Twitter), representing a record sum for an arbitration salary.
At the filing deadline for arbitration numbers, indications were that the Rox were confident they'd work something out before going to a hearing. Still, the sides were quite far apart, with Arenado filing for $30MM and the team submitting a $24MM figure — both landing above the prior $23MM record of Josh Donaldson.
As it turns out, Arenado comes in just a shade under the $26.1MM that MLBTR and Matt Swartz projected. As Swartz discussed in breaking down Arenado's case, there were arguments to swing that figure in either direction, but the model obviously produced quite an accurate prediction.
Arenado is a perennial All-Star, Gold Glove winner, and MVP candidate. Plus, his power numbers are certainly not hurt by the fact that he plays at Coors Field. It's no surprise, then, that he'd be the one to reach new heights in arbitration earnings.
The more intriguing question is whether the arb talks will set the stage for longer-term discussions between the Rockies and their biggest star. As Rosenthal notes on Twitter, today's agreement came after a lengthy, in-person discussion — an indication, perhaps, that the sides may be able to work together to hammer out a much larger contract.
As always, you can keep up to date on the arb money by referencing MLBTR's Arbitration Tracker.

Diamondbacks Sign Greg Holland
TODAY: The team has announced the signing.
YESTERDAY: The Diamondbacks have agreed to a one-year deal with free agent reliever Greg Holland, according to Robert Murray and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic (via Twitter). The Boras Corporation client secures a $3.25MM guarantee and $3.5MM in possible incentives, per Jon Heyman of MLB Network (Twitter links). Holland still must pass a physical before the contract will be finalized.
Now 33 years of age, Holland is not the same pitcher that once featured as one of the game's most dominant relievers. Indeed, he last pitched as a true relief ace back in 2014. He blew out his elbow in the ensuing campaign and has never fully regained his velocity.
That's not to say that Holland hasn't shown his share of ability in the ensuing seasons. He turned in a successful 2017 campaign for the Rockies, so much so that he received and rejected a qualifying offer from the organization in the following winter. And though things went terribly last year with the Cardinals after a late-spring signing, Holland did rebound later in the season with the Nationals.
It truly was a dramatic turnaround, though it's hard to pinpoint the root cause for the change. In his 25 frames in St. Louis, Holland surrendered as many earned runs and free passes as he recorded strikeouts (22 apiece). Upon arriving in D.C., Holland contributed 21 1/3 innings over which he posted a 25:10 K/BB ratio and permitted only a pair of earned runs on just nine hits.
Over the course of the season, Holland proved capable of limiting the long ball, as he has long done. And he still generated a strong 13.1% swinging-strike rate. Clearly, the D-Backs won't anticipate the full-fledged re-emergence of the once-great closer, but they've evidently seen enough to believe that Holland can still be a quality, late-inning arm.
The exact plan for Holland's usage isn't yet evident, but it would hardly be surprising to see him receive at least a full-blown shot at earning the closer's gig this spring. Archie Bradley currently profiles as the top ninth-inning option in Arizona, but he has been successful in a more flexible role. Details of Holland's incentives package aren't yet known, but could offer a hint as to the expectations of all involved.
Needless to say, the Cardinals did not see a return on the $14MM they invested in Holland last year. It's tough to imagine the Diamondbacks ending up with a similar sense of regret, given the much lower amount promised. If they end up paying Holland the full $6.75MM contemplated in the contract, it'll only be because he warranted the opportunities. Beyond that, even if the Snakes prove unable to mount a surprise challenge for the postseason, they ought to have an opportunity to spin off Holland (and his remaining financial obligations) to another team over the summer.

Latest On Possible Brewers Free Agent Targets
The Brewers already made one significant free agent acquisition this winter, snagging backstop Yasmani Grandal on a one-year arrangement when he failed to find a multi-year deal to his liking. It seems the organization is still eyeing some additional potential targets, according to a report from Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel (Twitter links).
Most intriguingly, Haudricourt says that he's heard of at least some connection between the club and veteran southpaw Dallas Keuchel, who's the best free-agent starter still on the open market. Fellow lefty Gio Gonzalez is also an apparent possibility, as is third baseman Mike Moustakas. Both of those players, of course, spent the back end of the 2018 campaign in Milwaukee.
As Haudricourt points out, all three of the aforementioned players are clients of Scott Boras. The super-agent has seemingly struck up a chummy relationship with Brewers owner Mark Attanasio over the years. Indeed, they were able to line up on a rare extension of a star Boras client (Carlos Gomez).
Of course, that sort of connection will only go so far, particularly since Attanasio has relied heavily upon the judgment of recently promoted president of baseball operations David Stearns. To this stage in his tenure, Stearns has eschewed large pitching entanglements.
A large and lengthy deal for Keuchel, then, would be especially surprising. Still, it would make some sense for the organization not only to seek a rotation upgrade, but to target a lefty starter in particular. Virtually all of the team's rotation or long-relief options throw from the right side. Though the bullpen includes two valuable southpaws (Josh Hader and Alex Claudio), skipper Craig Counsell could gain some additional game management possibilities if he can run a southpaw out to start every fifth day.
The Brewers already proved willing to take that sort of thinking to the extreme when they sent out lefty Wade Miley to pitch to just one batter during the fifth game of the National League Championship Series. Interestingly, despite a bounceback campaign last year, Miley himself does not seem to have been targeted to this point for a reunion. The 32-year-old did not exactly have the peripherals to support his 2.57 ERA, but he rewarded the Brewers for the opportunities they were willing to give him and it seemed reasonable to anticipate the team would have some interest.
It'll certainly be interesting to see whether Stearns has any more tricks up his sleeves this winter. While the team's rise to the NL Central title last year has certainly raised the bar in Milwaukee, projection systems are not exactly enamored of the present roster. The middle infield unit is a less-than-inspiring bunch, at least on paper, while the rotation is more notable for its depth than its evident upside. Though there is no clearly dominant team in the division, it seems to be competitive from top to bottom. While the organization likely remains optimistic with the current batch of players, it stands to reason that Stearns is still working on potential additions.

J.T. Realmuto Talks In "Advanced Stages"
By Steve Adams | January 31, 2019 at 2:10pm CDT
The Marlins' trade talks centering around J.T. Realmuto have reached "advanced stages," reports Joe Frisaro of MLB.com, who lists four possible suitors still in the mix: the Padres, Reds, Dodgers and Braves.
While the report seems to advance things from previous levels, it should be pointed out that this isn't the first time talks have reportedly gained momentum. In fact, that exact terminology ("gaining momentum") was used last Friday with no deal yet coming to fruition. Earlier this week, the Reds were said to have "made progress" on a Realmuto swap before those reports were walked back, and it's now been three weeks to the day since the Marlins were first reported to be in "substantive" trade talks regarding Realmuto.
Whatever is going on behind the scenes, it seems clear that there has at times been a concerted effort to convey the idea that talks have been more productive than is the case in actuality. Perhaps that's the Miami organization trying to pressure other clubs to inch their offers toward the reported sky-high asking price, but with all due respect to those involved, it's become difficult to determine just how close a deal is to reality. For instance, MLB Network's Jon Heyman tweets that the Dodgers aren't even active in their pursuit at the moment but adds the Rays to the list of current pursuers; Frisaro's report, in contradictory fashion, says the Rays and Astros look to have largely bowed out of the race while listing the Dodgers as a factor. MLB.com's Jon Morosi tweeted last night that the Padres are more involved than the Dodgers.
The greatest cause for optimism regarding a terminus in this exhausting saga could be the latest column from The Athletic's Dennis Lin (subscription required), wherein he writes that there are "signs that [the asking price] has come down in recent days." The Padres have reportedly sought an extension with Realmuto as a contingency in any trade, though Lin now writes that the organization remains confident it could sell the catcher on its promising future even though the Marlins have denied interested teams a window to negotiate a long-term deal.
Over the past week, the Padres and Reds have been the two teams most strongly linked to Realmuto, with Atlanta, Los Angeles and Tampa Bay oft rumored to be involved to varying extents. The continually conflicting depiction of the extent to which each is (or isn't) interested makes individual updates perhaps worth taking with a grain of salt. However, the pronounced increase of rumors surrounding Realmuto does seem to lend credence to the notion that the Marlins have upped their efforts to find a palatable deal.

Twins Rumors: Kimbrel, Grandal, Madson, Norris
By Steve Adams and Jeff Todd | January 31, 2019 at 12:20pm CDT
As star closer Craig Kimbrel continues to wait for a new contract, Dan Hayes of The Athletic raised the notion recently (subscription link) that the Twins could position themselves as a landing spot. Kimbrel has reportedly been seeking a five-year deal, though Hayes reports the Twins would only be interested in a shorter-term pact with a high annual value. As Hayes explores, the Twins' recent but failed bid for Yasmani Grandal suggests that they're willing to make a run at players they deem to be unique assets in the market. None of that is a declaration that Minnesota is actively pursuing Kimbrel at the moment, but the connection is still of some note.
Were Kimbrel to take a contract of three or fewer years, it's fair to speculate that he'd look to topple the $17.33MM annual value record for a reliever — currently held by the Rockies' Wade Davis. Recent comments from Twins baseball ops leaders Derek Falvey and Thad Levine largely downplayed the possibility of any marquee addition to the roster, and Kimbrel would see enhanced interest from more than just Minnesota if his asking price dipped to three or fewer years. With a 2019 payroll that currently checks in more than $20MM south of last season's Opening Day mark and zero guaranteed contracts in 2020, the Twins arguably have the most financial flexibility of any team in baseball, though that hardly means they should be expected to make a big free-agent splash.
More out of Minnesota…
Speaking of the Twins' interest in Grandal, Darren Wolfson of 1500 ESPN/SKOR North reported in a recent podcast episode (Twins talk starts around 11:50 mark) that Minnesota was willing to go to three years at a total of $13-15MM per season in order to bring Grandal aboard. Grandal's camp, however, told the Twins quickly and definitively that he wasn't interested in signing there. Given that Grandal landed one state over in Wisconsin, it's unlikely that geography played much of a role, so perhaps signing with a clearer contender was a priority. Since signing, Grandal has also spoken about the emphasis he placed on finding an annual value commensurate with the game's top catchers. It's rare to see a player turn down three or four years (the latter reportedly offered by the Mets) in order to receive an AAV boost of this size, but every player is wired differently, and Grandal may simply be more open to risk than most. If he has a strong 2019, he could come out ahead next offseason when he won't have a qualifying offer hanging over his head.
While the Kimbrel scenario may not be all that realistic for Twins fans, Minnesota is still looking to add a reliever, tweets MLB Network's Jon Heyman. Right-hander Ryan Madson is among the players Minnesota is considering as the team looks to further deepen its 'pen, Heyman notes. Madson logged 52 2/3 innings with 9.2 K/9, 2.7 BB/9, 1.20 HR/9 and a 42.6 percent ground-ball rate in 2018 — solid secondary numbers that generally look more appealing than his 5.47 ERA. Beyond that, Madson's velocity actually improved over its 2017 levels, as he averaged 95.9 mph on his four-seamer and 95.4 mph on his sinker, per Statcast. Madson also posted a 13.9 percent swinging-strike rate that was his best since returning from a three-year injury absence in 2015. The 38-year-old was used heavily in the postseason by the Dodgers and looked to wear down in the World Series after strong showings in the NLDS and NLCS. However, he posted an intriguing 31-to-5 K/BB ratio from the All-Star break through the completion of the World Series and figures to come at an affordable rate.
Meanwhile, Wolfson tweets that the Twins have both Madson and righty Bud Norris on their radar. However, he notes that the Twins have also been hoping to add relievers on minor league contracts, and it doesn't seem likely that either Madson or Norris would be amenable to such a deal at this juncture. Norris worked to a 3.59 ERA 10.5 K/9, 3.3 BB/9, 1.25 HR/9 and a 42.6 percent ground-ball rate in 57 2/3 innings with the Cardinals last season.

Crucifix banned at hospital where Muslims allowed to wear
[Daily Caller] A Christian nurse was 'forced to choose between her job and her faith' after being ordered to remove her crucifix at a hospital where Muslim staff wore headscarves unchallenged, a tribunal heard yesterday.
Shirley Chaplin, 54, said she had been wearing the religious symbol around her neck without complaint for 31 years before she was ordered to hide it away.
But the grandmother claims that after refusing to comply and then pointing out that two women doctors were allowed to wear headscarves, she was moved to a desk job.

In this little post i will do a step by step guide on how to deploy an Azure Web App with Octopus Deploy.
Azure Web App deployed via Resource Manager and some knowledge and access to the subscription.
Let's start by collection some information for Octopus Deploy we will need a few things from azure to set it up.
First we login to the azure portal and go to Azure Active Directory, and App Registration. Let's create a new one.
Click on Add and enter the details you want. You can add the link to the webapp in the sign-on url.
Here you will get the application ID and create the Key under keys, copy these somewhere and mark what is what.
Click on add, Select it as a contributor.
The Subscription ID you can get from your web app in the overview tab.
Let's create a Azure Subscription account.
Enter the name of your account, and add the Environment you just created. Then enter the ID's and keys you got from the azure portal. For the password\key click on set to enter it. Then click save and test.
Now you should have an account.
Let's go and create a project. Click on projects and all and then add a project to your project group and use the correct lifecycle for your project.
Create a lifecycle for your projects.
Let's start with the first one which is deleting your staging slot. And adding a new empty one. Note that you will need to have create a staging slot for the first time use.
Choose a name, select the azure account and add the following script. And add your environment.
New-AzureRMWebAppSlot -Name "Web App Name" -Slot Staging -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup Name"
Now let's create a step to swap the staging slot with the production slot.
Let's create a step that run's a powershell script again.
Write-Host "Swapping staging and production slots..."
Now if you have more then one environment redo the steps from 1 – 3 for each environment. But make sure to change the Environments at the bottom of each step.
Last thing we need to do is add an environment variable to step 3 for each environment. So if you have 2 it would be step 3 and 6. This is for the switch-azurermwebappslot to work.

Dean of Kennesaw State Explores How Behavior Determines Design
By Kathleen J. Larrison	 Last updated Oct 25, 2021
KENNESAW, Georgia (October 25, 2021) – How architects use human behavior to design buildings, parks and more will be the focus of Kennesaw State University's next relevant research – Deans' Showcase featuring Andrew Payne, Dean of the College of Architecture and Construction Management (CACM).
Andrew Payne
The Research Office is hosting the hybrid event at 4 p.m. on Friday, October 29 in the auditorium of the Design II building, room 112 on the Marietta campus. Guests who prefer to attend virtually can participate in the live video stream on KSUTV.
"In 1979, a documentary entitled The social life of small urban spaces by William H. 'Holly' Whyte highlighted the methods and reasoning of a designer studying user actions in New York City public spaces. This observational research has led to better understanding and improvements in the design of spaces for public use, "Payne said. This research also sparked his own interest in the subject.
Payne, who joined CACM as Dean in January 2020, is a passionate researcher whose career has spanned from design consulting to research and education. His research focuses on the concept of universal design, in particular orientation and perceptible information. These two components combine to help people navigate buildings using signs and graphics. Payne strives to help architects integrate clear and concise information through orientation strategies to make these spaces more accessible, safe and secure.
While pursuing his doctorate at North Carolina State University, Payne noticed how confusing conventional orientation and navigation signs can be in everyday spaces. After graduating, he began researching outdoor public spaces, as well as conducting observational research and behavioral monitoring of how people moved around in public buildings, such as centers. urban and health facilities.
Over the past 12 years, Payne has integrated his research interest into his work as both a consultant and a researcher. Now, as the dean of a college, he continues this work by reviewing and supporting the research activities of faculty and students, while collaborating with companies to assess their orientation designs.

Q: How to configure nginx to dynamically read folders, user accounts/domains? I have cPanel and Apache 2.4 on my CentOS 6.6 VPS. I installed Nginx as a reverse proxy.
Everything works fine. I have 2 domains on the VPS & I'm able to configure them both on nginx.
The problem is that I must edit the configuration and reload nginx every time a domain is added.
This is part of my nginx.conf file:
http {
...

 map $host $root {
      hostnames;
      default /var/www;
      example1.com /home/username1/public_html;
      www.example1.com /home/username1/public_html;
      example2.com /home/username2/public_html;
      www.example2.com /home/username2/public_html;
   }

server {
   listen 127.0.0.1:80 default_server;
   root $root;
   server_name server1;
   access_log off;
   error_log off;
   location ~*  \.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|wmv|avi|mpg|mpeg|mp4|htm|html|js|css)$ {
   expires 30d;
}

As you can see, this code: example1.com /home/username1/public_html; which defines the first domain/account on the server.  What I'm trying to achieve is to place a code like the following: $domain /home/$user/public_html;in order to dynamically read any domain will be added without editing the configuration for specific domains, as well as the username directories. Actually, I tried this code but it didn't work.
Maybe I can declare some variables and make this work as I want? If anyone here have suggestions or can edit my code, that would be great. Thank you.
Note: I don't want to use NginxCP plugin for cPanel because it installs mod_rpaf module which is not working on Apache 2.4 and has been replaced by mod_remoteip.

The Airistech Nokiva dry herb vaporizer is yet another amazing convection type vaporizer which many are calling the pax killer. First of all this one has a ceramic heating chamber and as a result, it heats up very fast. No one likes to wait and you won't have to with the Airistech Nokiva. It's ready to vape within 20 seconds of starting it up, which is pretty impressive if you ask me. In addition the ceramic heating chamber also provides you with the cleanest and purest taste you'll get from your flowers. Plus when you need to pack a new bowl it's easy to clean as well.
Furthermore this Airistech Nokiva vaporizer packs in a nice large battery to keep you vaping for a while. It also charges up at a decent speed too. There's a nice simple screen on the front of the vaporizer which prints out all the information you need so you can see it at a glance. It's also easy to control with it's simple 3 button operation, meaning you'll spend less time figuring it out and more time vaping. The bottom line is that if you're looking for something that blows the pax out of the water, all while costing a tiny fraction of the price. Then you're going to love this Airistech Nokiva dry herb vaporizer as much as we do!

Иван Иванович Кабат (1812 — ) — русский врач, окулист, лейб-окулист императора Александра II, .

Биография
Родился в 1812 году. Происходил из Венгерского дворянского рода; сын обер-офицера.

В 1833 году окончил Петербургскую медико-хирургическую академию со степенью лекаря 1-го отделения и 25 августа был назначен ординатором 2-го военно-сухопутного госпиталя; в 1835 году получил звание медико-хирурга. Затем работал в войсках и неоднократно посылался в командировки для прекращения глазных эпидемий. В 1839 году устроил глазное отделение при Московском военном госпитале, которым заведовал в течение года.

as the national has implemented increasingly stringent emission standards recent years, bag filter has taken increasingly dominant role in the market.among the pulse blow bag filters, the one with charater of powerful cleaning is an efficient dust removal equipment which develops very rapidly. the product is also very widely used as it is designed to achieve a very low particulate emission concentration which could effective control the air quality and human health effects of fine particles such as pm2.5 pollution. the equipment is now taking a very importmant role in the air polution treatment.
electromagnetic pulse valve is the generating equipment for cleaning flow of the pulse bag filter. it's performance and quality determine the key factor for cleaning effect and equipment level of pulse bag filter.
for half a century, rubber diaphragm has been broadly used as the switch component for a solenoid valve which supplies the air resource to the pulse-jet bag filter, promoted the development of pulse jet cleaning technology and contributed to the pollution control for society as well. at the same time, rubber sheet achieve the on-off based on its elastic deformation movements. that limits the valve to meet the trend of the filter system design requirement which is bigger blow performance and smaller size.
to meet the bag filtration system developing trend, which is large scale, high efficiency, long bag and higher temperature, our company developed piston style valve (slide flap) instead of the diaphragm. the piston style valve has higher pulse peak value and quicker climbing speed. thus it can generate stronger pulse air flow, increase dust cleaning area 20% under the same condition and reduce the installation volume 10% less to make the bag layout more efficient. also because the piston design has higher heat resisting and corrosion preventing nature, it will give the valve longer operating life.
electromagnetic pulse valve is a valve to open transiently from 50 to 250ms. in the product information for traditional pulse valve products, it only describes the models, specifications, dimensions, technical conditions for usage, diaphragm life, flow coefficient etc., yet the important description on its blowing performance is commonly neglected. in the product manual prepared by shangtai, it outlines the key indicators for every type of electromagnetic pulse valve, like output-input pressure ratio, the output rate of pressure rise, the pulse width difference between gas and power, injection flow and etc. it also provides injection volume curve and switching characteristics figures for user reference. based on the information, the equipment composition of pulse blow bag filter could be more scientifically reasonable and the filter bag life could be extended with energy saving as well.
pulse blow bag filter is a machinery system combined with manifold box, electromagnetic pulse valve, injection pipe and etc. among the components, the electromagnetic pulse valve provides the vibrating flow for dust removal.the blow flow is transitted and distributed through the blow pipes and forms the shock wave and reverse flow in the filter bag through the holes on the pipes. the filter bag is then deformed and the dustcake stacked on the outer wall is peeled off.
the dust remover equipment should be onsite adjusted to establish a reasonable dust removing(blowing) mechanism.details determine success or failure, only by focusing on every details and correctly grasping principles of each details, may the whole system reach the best performance.


The CDC has reported that the number of babies born with the STD in 2014 was the highest since 2001.
Syphilis, the morning-after worry for sexually active adults, is on the rise in newborns, according to a disturbing new study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
If left unchecked, syphilis can be passed from mom to baby during pregnancy and can pose serious health issues for the child, including brain damage or even death. Last year alone, it reportedly caused 25 stillbirths and eight deaths during the babies' first month of life.
Researchers discovered that in 2014, there were 458 babies born with the sexually transmitted disease, an increase of 38 percent from 2012 to 2014 and the highest number since 2001. Though that's hardly an outbreak, it's a spike that troubles experts and raises concerns about the quality of prenatal care (or lack thereof) some moms are receiving.
Of the babies who were infected, 22 percent of their moms went without prenatal care, and one in 10 had no record of pregnancy care. It's a major missed opportunity: During the first trimester, doctors routinely screen expectant moms for STDs including syphilis. And though treatment is fairly simple and effective—a dose of penicillin can prevent the disease from spreading to the baby—the study found that more than 40 percent of these women didn't receive treatment for their STD. Just as troubling? Thirty percent reportedly received subpar care.
Researchers are hoping their study prompts more doctors to screen women and their partners for this easily preventable disease. "The declines in syphilis gave us confidence that we had been doing a good job," Virginia Bowe, lead researcher and CDC epidemiologist, explained to Philly.com. But, as she pointed out, "these cases are entirely preventable, so 458 cases is 458 cases too many."

In a rare bow to public pressure, Egypt has released a young journalist after photos of the student sobbing and hobbling on crutches went viral on social media.
An Egyptian court on Saturday ordered the release from prison of young photojournalist and activist, Esraa Al Taweel, 23, whose detention and tearful court appearance had unleashed widespread calls for her freedom according to a report in Middle East Monitor.
Presiding judge of the Cairo Criminal Court, Hassan Fareed, ordered Al Taweel's release on health grounds pending her trial on charge of being a member of the banned Muslim Brotherhood and spreading false news - accusations that she said are false, and that are typical of the charges leveled against thousands of other political prisoners in Egypt in the past two years.
The court decision is conditional: Al Taweel, 23, cannot leave her home without prior police permission, the sources added.
Al Taweel can hardly walk without a stick due to spine injuries she suffered two years ago after she was shot in the back during a rally marking the anniversary of the 2011 uprising that forced long-president Hosni Mubarak to step down.
In early June, Al Taweel's family said she had mysteriously disappeared while on a picnic in Cairo. Just two weeks later, she appeared inside a prison near Cairo in a pre-trial detention.
Last month, she was seen in tears in widely circulated pictures after the court, extended her jailing for 45 more days. Her images triggered a debate in the local media on circumstances of her detention and prompted an online campaign calling for her release.

Q: Get text of selected couple of checkboxes android? I have 700 checkboxes in my activity xml. I need to get the text of all the selected checkboxes.
One approach is to see if checkbox1 isChecked() and get the text, but doing this for 700 checkboxes is too repetitive.

A: I think the best approach could be, start with an empty String array (representing zero checkboxes selected). Every time you select a checkbox, add it's text to the array, every time you uncheck the checkbox, remove that string from the array (if it exists there). In the end, you just need to loop your array to get the selected strings
EDIT:
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity(), CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener {

private lateinit var checkbox1: CheckBox
private lateinit var checkbox2: CheckBox
private lateinit var checkboxContainer: ConstraintLayout
private var checkedStrings = ArrayList<String>()

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

    checkbox1 = findViewById(R.id.checkbox1)
    checkbox2 = findViewById(R.id.checkbox2)
    checkboxContainer = findViewById(R.id.checkboxContainer)

    checkbox1.setOnCheckedChangeListener(this)
    checkbox2.setOnCheckedChangeListener(this)

    //or, if you have the checkboxes statically added to your layout, which I suspect you do, you can loop through the view like:
    for (i in 0..checkboxContainer.childCount){
        if (checkboxContainer.getChildAt(i) is CheckBox){
            (checkboxContainer.getChildAt(i) as CheckBox).setOnCheckedChangeListener(this)
        }
    }
}

override fun onCheckedChanged(buttonView: CompoundButton?, isChecked: Boolean) {

    val checkBoxString = (buttonView as CheckBox).text.toString()

    if (isChecked){
        checkedStrings.add(checkBoxString)
    }else{
        checkedStrings.remove(checkBoxString)
    }
}

fun processStrings(){

    // at the end of the iteration/screen/whatever you can check the content of the checkedStrings array like, for instance:

    for (string in checkedStrings){
        Log.e("print string", string)
    }
}
}

After losing 4-1 to the Montreal Canadiens on March 4, the Rangers recalled Tanner Glass from the their AHL affiliate, the Hartford Wolfpack. Rather than attribute the loss to the Rangers playing poorly––since the Canadiens outshot the Rangers 35-27, won 63% of faceoffs, and had Carey Price in net––much of the blame for the loss was placed on the Rangers lack of "grit" and "toughness." According to the Rangers, the difference makers in that game were Dwight King, Andrew Shaw, and Steve Ott.
Since recalling Tanner Glass, he has played in six games, and has recorded a goal and an assist. Many view having a tough player like Glass in the lineup as a deterrent. In his first game back with the Rangers against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Glass put his toughness on display early by fighting Luke Witkowski. Later that period, Gabriel Dumont of the Lightning boarded Rangers' defenseman Steven Kampfer––something that Glass's presence should have deterred, right?
Gabe Desjardins dropped a comment over at my Tumblr awhile ago, asking me if I could put together a graph expanding on a metric I came up with, 2-Period Shot Percentage (or 2pS%). 2pS% is an historical possession metric that takes shots-for and shots-against in just the first two periods of a game and expresses it as a percentage for the team being analyzed. The idea was that I was trying to get a rough possession measure from the period that would avoid score effects, or the tendency for teams with a lead to sit on the lead and thus give up shots late in the game. Having recently completed a database of period-by-period shot data going back to 1952-53, I have been able to test this metric a bit and the results were good for 2pS% as a possession measure. Returning to Gabe's request, he wanted to know if I could chart the 2pS% data from year-to-year, with one line following the league leader in the metric and the other line following the Stanley Cup winner. I'd been curious about this myself; certainly there are a number of different ways to express the value of the metric, but this particular one could be interesting because it toes the line between what the Old and New Guard feel is important in this kind of analysis.

When users run the app the list colour not set perfectly in all cells, show automatically white colour. When the user scrolls the list, then automatically colour change which I set.
Question:- How to change full list colour in one time?
Can someone please explain to me how to change list colour, I've tried to with above code but no results yet.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

A: Removing ContentView1's init fixes the problem.
The issue is caused by your code setting selectedBackgroundView, but you don't need any of that init anyway as it still functions as you intend.

A: There you go! You just set the list row background color everywhere... I think you got confused because of that.
You just have to set the list row background color in the Screen struct. Hope you understand what I changed.
import SwiftUI

struct ContentView: View {
    @State var items = Array(1...20)

    var idetifca = UUID()

    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button("Shuffle") {
                self.items.shuffle()
            }

            List(items, id: \.self) {_ in
                Screen(Array1: $items)
            }
            .id(idetifca)
            .listStyle(PlainListStyle())
        }
    }
}

struct Screen: View {
    @Binding var Array1 : [Int]

    var body: some View {
        Group {
            if self.Array1.count > 0{
                SectionTitleUI(titleStrng: "Testing", rightTitleString: "", countShow:  0) {}
                .listRowBackground(Color.red)
                ForEach(self.Array1.indices, id: \.self) { notification in
                    NotificationView(notificationInfo: self.Array1[notification])
                }
                .listRowBackground(Color.red)

            }

        }
    }

    static var previews: some View {
