Goalkeeper is a Dutch close-in weapon system (CIWS) introduced in 1979. It is an autonomous and completely automatic weapon system for short-range defence of ships against highly maneuverable missiles, aircraft and fast maneuvering surface vessels. Once activated the system automatically undertakes the entire air defense process from surveillance and detection to destruction, including selection of the next priority target.

Development[edit]
Development of the system began in 1975 with Hollandse Signaalapparaten B.V. or in short Hollandse Signaal or Signaal (now Thales Nederland) working with General Electric, which supplied the GAU-8 gun. A prototype, the EX-83, was first demonstrated to the Royal Netherlands Navy in 1979.
In 2012 the Dutch ministry of defense announced that the Goalkeeper systems in use by the Netherlands Navy will receive radar upgrades, mechanical improvements, new high-precision frangible ammunition and a new electro-optical tracking system. Also the system's surface mode will be improved to counter high speed boats and fast attack craft. These upgrades will make the system more capable to defend ships against the latest threats such as modern anti-ship missiles, more effective in littoral environments and less vulnerable to malfunctions. It also expands the life of the system to at least 2025. The first of 16 systems will be upgraded and tested by Thales Nederland, the others at the naval base in Den Helder.[1] The upgrade has been named the Upkeep Modification.
The development of the Upkeep Modification did not go smoothly. The costs associated with the upgrade rose 700.000 euro above the planned budget in 2015, and led to a loss for Thales Nederland in that year.[2] Nonetheless, by 2016 the first upgrade was completed and placed aboard the HNLMS Evertsen for testing purposes. The newly upgraded Goalkeeper system brings numerous improvements and additions to the system. Among these are new color and infrared cameras, a new control panel, new software and computers, and the ability to let several Goalkeeper systems work with each other simultaneously.[3]
In March 2018 the upgraded Goalkeeper CIWS passed the sea acceptance trial flawlessly. The Upkeep Modification is meant to bring the performance of the Goalkeeper system once again to the highest operational status, in correspondence with the Royal Netherlands Navy's ambition to optimally protect its crew and ships during overseas deployments.[4]
Description[edit]
Target selection[edit]
Goalkeeper has two radar sub-systems, one to find threats and another to track and engage them, which operate together to identify and prioritise targets, and engage the highest priority one.
The 2D I band search radar, which can handle up to 18 targets at once, generates a threat picture which the gun system uses to identify and prioritize threats. The system has identify friend or foe (IFF) functionality to rule out friendly traces.[5] The tracking radar operates in both I band and K band to enable quick acquisition on the threat bearing. Data from both the I band and K band return signals indicate target range and can be used to identify, and respond to the use of, electronic countermeasures (ECM). The dual band system also reduces the effect of clutter, which can mask the target at low altitude. A camera system on the assembly provides a visual fallback for the system operator.
A target hit by Goalkeeper; this target was hit six times during a one-second burst of 70 rounds
Target engagement[edit]
The GAU-8/A Avenger 30 mm Gatling gun, as used by the A-10 Thunderbolt II aircraft, was selected for the system. The 30x173mm cartridge has a greater projectile mass than the 20x102mm cartridge fired by the Phalanx CIWS M61 Vulcan, so it provides much greater destructive power with similar muzzle velocity but significantly increased range.
The 30x173mm MPDS cartridge has a discarding nylon sleeve (sabot) with a 21 mm sub-calibre tungsten penetrator. The nylon sabot provides a seal between penetrator and barrel, and reduces wear.
The tracking radar is capable of monitoring the line of fire and commanding minor adjustments.
Supersonic missiles that are damaged may still have enough momentum to hit the ship—the only way to ensure the protection of the ship is either to detonate the warhead of the missile or obliterate the missile.
The system's reaction time to a Mach 2 sea-skimming missile such as the Russian SS-N-22 Sunburn from automatic detection to kill is reported to be 5.5 seconds with the firing synchronized to start the engagement at a range of 1,500 m and ending with a kill at 300 m.[5]
Operational history[edit]
Goalkeeper's capabilities have been proven many times during sea-going trials. During live-fire exercises, many different targets including Harpoons, Exocets and target drones were shot down by Goalkeeper. During anti-piracy operations off the coast of Somalia the system destroyed several pirate boats and skiffs that had been seized by the Royal Netherlands Navy.[6]

I'm just here today to remind you that cooking outside with loved ones, friends and well behaved furry ones is a really lovely thing right about now. If you have my book The Art of Daily Cultivation, this beautiful recipe from Shauna Prince is on page 110. And if you don't have the book, you now have one of the best parts of the book. See, I don't consider myself a foodie, but I am wise enough to have talented, festive foodie friends. Thank you Shauna and Daniel!
Method: Lightly sweat onion in butter until soft, but not browned. Add white wine, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Stir together and cool.
For each fillet, cut a piece of aluminum foil and a piece of parchment each slightly more than twice as long as your piece of fish. Be sure it's large enough to fold over and seal your fish lengthwise. Lay the foil on the counter, then add the parchment paper on top of the foil. Place the fillet on top of the parchment – near one of the ends, skin side down. Repeat with the second fillet.
Brush the top and bottom of each fillet lightly to coat with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Pour half the butter/wine/mustard/lemon juice mixture evenly over each fillet. Lay round slices of lemon and chopped dill on top of the fish. Add as many capers as you like. Close up the foil packets to seal.
Heat up barbecue to 350F or medium-high heat (or your oven to 350F). Place fish packets on grill. Cook until the fish flakes lightly (be careful not to overcook it). Timing will depend on how thick your fish is – likely 10+ minutes for 1½ inches thick.
Serve with additional lemon wedges and dill sprigs. You can also make an easy accompanying sauce with good mayonnaise mixed with a small amount of lemon juice and salt. Add chopped capers and dill to the sauce if you like.
Note: Leftover salmon makes amazing fish cakes. Flake the fish, add 1- 2 lightly beaten raw eggs, any herbs that you want (e.g. dill, tarragon, sorrel), and enough breadcrumbs to hold the mixture together (panko works well). Add additional salt/pepper to your taste. Form into balls, and cook in a lightly oiled or buttered frypan until brown. Turn and brown on the other side, and serve with lemon aioli.
The Art of Daily Cultivation, A Celebration of 365 Story Paintings has gone to print. The book cover design kept me awake at night. So like most would, I went out to my friends and book supporters to vote. I figured this would make everything clear. Guess what? A tie. 50/50. I think it stumped them for the same reasons it stumped me.
Tough decision, the cover of a book, especially a hardback book with a fancy dust jacket can bring radically change the temperament of blood pressure. I thought a post about the design would be worthy thought note.
The project content of paintings and stories was created over a 12 month period with 12 themes in 30 day sets. I wanted the cover to express this somehow. While the circles reveal the image more clearly and in a way is more aesthetically pleasing, the composition was a challenge. You see the space to fill here in a 9 x 11 book is large. I worked on making the title larger and more typographically interesting. I filled the cover with the images at one point. I made the circles into a flower to represent blossoming with the months in the center at another point in the design process. In all examples it ended up looking like a splatter plot. The months not in order. I lined up the months with the images in line and it looked like a totem pole or a multi-directional wine country sign.
In the end, I agreed with viewers that the triangles - though jagged and not as aesthetically pleasing as the circles did convey integration and the sense of building. The mountainous feeling with the months woven through is more accurate than the scatter plot representation.
So, I'm marinating on the final cover. Hopefully, in time, I will grow more affectionate towards it. It's never easy to love a product in the initial stages of shipping. I know this as a product designer over the years. You are simply raw initially -- wrung out and hopeful that everything will go smoothly.
I am thrilled to be here at this stage of development. I can't wait to see the proofs. I will post ordering information in the weeks to come. For now, it's teatime and hot baths.

Q: Why this boolean doesn't give me the right value? First of all, my program functions, but the b3 expression (a boolean) does not function like I want to. Instead of giving me a value of 0 (false) when I select that one train is DIESEL or ELECTRICAL, it gives me a value of 1 (TRUE) when some of the trains are DIESEL or ELECTRICAL. It only gives false when both trains are ELECTRICAL or both DIESEL. When one train is ELECTRICAL and the other DIESEL, it keeps me giving me 1 (TRUE). My code is more extensive but these are the parts related to the problem that I account for.
typedef enum{ELECTRICAL, CARBON, SOLAR, GASOLINE, DIESEL, MAGNETIC} tPropulsion;
typedef enum{FALSE, TRUE} boolean;
int main()
{
    tPropulsion propulsionType1, propulsionType2;
    boolean b2, b3, b4;

    printf("Insert type of propulsion of train1>> 0-ELECTRICAL, 1-CARBON, 2-SOLAR, 3 GASOLINE, 4-DIESEL, 5-MAGNETIC ");
    scanf("%u", &propulsionType1);

    printf("Insert type of propulsion of train2>> 0-ELECTRICAL, 1-CARBON, 2-SOLAR, 3 GASOLINE, 4-DIESEL, 5-MAGNETIC ");
    scanf("%u", &propulsionType2);

    b3 = propulsionType1 != DIESEL && propulsionType2 != ELECTRICAL &&
    propulsionType1 != DIESEL && propulsionType2 != ELECTRICAL;

    printf("Neither train 1 or train 2 are DIESEL or ELECTRICAL is (0-FLASE, 1-TRUE)>> %u", b3);
}

A: First of all:

*

*indent your code

*use parenthesis

*rather than using enum for boolean, you could do your own boolean like this:

#define TRUE (0==0)
#define FALSE !TRUE

Then clarify your statement, what do you want?
"if train 1 or train 2 is DIESEL or ELECTRICAL then TRUE, else FALSE"
    b3 = ((propulsionType1 == DIESEL) || (propulsionType2 == ELECTRICAL)) ||
    ((propulsionType1 == DIESEL) || (propulsionType2 == ELECTRICAL));

Then look at propulsionType1 and propulsionType2
    b3 = ((propulsionType1 == DIESEL) || (propulsionType1 == ELECTRICAL)) ||
    ((propulsionType2 == DIESEL) || (propulsionType2 == ELECTRICAL));

There were over 2000 names of gods in Ancient Egypt.
Some images of Ancient Egyptian gods and goddesses show them with a human body and the head of a bird or an animal.
The head of the animals were chosen to represent the powers of the god and goddesses.


You have the power to improve any tense situation by understanding others. Better yet, by respecting and motivating others, you can help everyone understand each other. Use your diplomatic skills to bring people together in a room and have a personal conversation. Personal questions resolve when things are said aloud. Encourage people to express their ideas and fears. The opening helps everyone to understand each other better.
At the moment one should not forget that especially in a relationship nothing can be forced! Feelings are like a jumping ball and when they hit, sparks fly. Therefore, do not close your eyes to the real and avoid frustrations! Focus on your sweetheart and just tell him how much you love him.

Socialist Insecurity
Pensions and the Politics of Uneven Development in China
Mark Frazier
Mark W. Frazier is a Professor of Politics at The New School for Social Research and Co-Academic Director of the India China Institute at The New School. He is the author of Socialist Insecurity: Pensions and the Politics of Uneven Development in China (Cornell University Press, 2010) and The Making of the Chinese Industrial Workplace (Cambridge University Press, 2002), as well as articles in Asia Policy, Studies in Comparative International Development, and The China Journal. Before 2012, he was an Associate Professor of International and Area Studies at the University of Oklahoma. Frazier received a Ph.D. in political science from the University of California, Berkeley.

Over the past two decades, China has rapidly increased its spending on its public pension programs, to the point that pension funding is one of the government's largest expenditures. Despite this, only about fifty million citizens—one-third of the country's population above the age of sixty—receive pensions. Combined with the growing and increasingly violent unrest over inequalities brought about by China's reform model, the escalating costs of an aging society have brought the Chinese political leadership to a critical juncture in its economic and social policies.
In Socialist Insecurity, Mark W. Frazier explores pension policy in the People's Republic of China, arguing that the government's push to expand pension and health insurance coverage to urban residents and rural migrants has not reduced, but rather reproduced, economic inequalities. He explains this apparent paradox by analyzing the decisions of the political actors responsible for pension reform: urban officials and state-owned enterprise managers. Frazier shows that China's highly decentralized pension administration both encourages the "grabbing hand" of local officials to collect large amounts of pension and other social insurance revenue and compels redistribution of these revenues to urban pensioners, a crucial political constituency.
More broadly, Socialist Insecurity shows that the inequalities of welfare policy put China in the same quandary as other large uneven developers—countries that have succeeded in achieving rapid growth but with growing economic inequalities. While most explanations of the formation and expansion of welfare states are derived from experience in today's mature welfare systems, developing countries such as China, Frazier argues, provide new terrain to explore how welfare programs evolve, who drives the process, and who sees the greatest benefit. —Cornell University Press

Last week we talked about getting started. This week I want to focus on training. My routine can change from week to week but typically I'd run an easy 10 miles on Mondays, followed by intervals on Tuesday and a semi-long 15-20 mile run on Wednesday. On Thursday it's another easy 10 miles. Friday is my tempo day where I try to maintain 5-minute pace for 16 miles or so. Saturday is another easy 10 mile day and finally Sunday is my long run up to marathon distance. On the easy days, I do have a second run in the afternoon, ranging anywhere from 4-6 miles. The speed of the second run is not as important, I usually just listen to my body and see how I feel and decided if that afternoon run is necessary or not. The key is to stay healthy and train consistently.
I use altitude to my advantage and of course a very extensive stretching program plus weights are part of my routine. My plan may not be right for you. There are many marathon training regiments out there, including customized training plans from runcoach.com. Find one that fits with your fitness and ability and expect realistic results. If you're a couch potato at the start, you'll probably need more than ten weeks to be in marathon shape. But that's OK. You will get there and you'll feel amazing when you cross that finish line. Before you get back to training, don't forget to check out the this month's contest for another chance to gear up like me!

Where Did the Ducklings Come From
Clinical Sex and Relationship Therapist Sue McGarvie (SexwithSue.com) started "the Ducklings" from her local sex and relationship workshops conducted over the last few years.
Think of the Duckling group as a place for flirty, sassy, adventure outings. We wanted a club that wasn't a mainstream service group (like Rotary), but wasn't over the top either. We wanted to connect with like-minded fun people that "get it". We started planning date nights (for both couples and singles) and fun group activities that were way more creative than dinner and movies.
We also wanted a kind place where there wasn't any "mean girls" or a place where you got hit on incessantly. Where you could dance as a single and be welcomed. Where drama, gossip, and general "dumb-ass behaviour" wasn't tolerated. Where inclusion and warmth were the order of the day. A community of the nicest people we've ever met felt at home. We wanted to be our sexy selves but with grace and staying "on this side of the line". We like to think that The Ducklings are that community. Don't be scared, come and try us out. You will be very welcome.

Late At Night Lyrics. I don't plan or conspire I don't want to get no higher It's your lack of ambition Well, they tell me that's what it's missing All the guns out on the western front Are quiet now Well, it's nice to hear the world Breath a sigh. We are each like no other We are unique to our mother We are foals in the stable But we leave home when we're able But we all need someone Like the Earth needs the Sun And our fate will be found In this life in the ground.

After three weeks of vacations, the Spanish tennis player returns to the training thinking already in a demanding season in 2018.
The image of a Nadal limping ostensibly, but still winning a set and facing Goffin in the Masters Cup will remain as one of the photos of the year in the tennis circuit. It is the proof, one more, that Rafa Nadal never gives up, that even with a significant physical loss, he is capable of competing at the highest level. But the pains were so intense that the Spaniard had to say enough, because otherwise he would have been in danger of the injury being even greater.
Twenty days have passed since that trance, and Rafa Nadal continues with his rehabilitation, that beyond the therapy to reduce the tendinitis in his knee, the thing does not have much more science than to rest as much as possible to arrive at the exhibition tournament of Abu Dhabi (28 to December 30) in good physical condition and then be able to face the preparation for the Australian Open, with Brisbane as the first stop on the way of the Balearic Islands.
"I did not finish the season in the best possible way but I would have signed the year I've done before I started. My knee does not have to be ready now. The goal is within a month, he said Monday at the Telefonica Flagship Store in Madrid, where he presented a virtual reality game starring him.
Nadal explained that today he will return to training and will try to "do the right thing to be ready" for the start of the new course. "I finished the season with injuries and it takes time for me to recover well, this is why I took a few weeks off. I need to start over. I will try to play in Abu Dhabi, Brisbane and Australia . That would be the ideal situation and I will try to make it happen, "he said.
Despite premature goodbye in the Masters tournament, Nadal has signed a season to frame six titles, two of them "Grand Slam" at Roland Garros and the US Open , and the return to first place in the ranking in August and that he has managed to maintain until the end of the year. "We are in a world that is totally resultist and each one makes its way. When you feel that you have to do things one way and they do not go well then you have to make decisions when correcting them. This year I played 18 tournaments, which are very few, "added Rafael Nadal.
Out of the mandatory ones I played only three: Barcelona, Brisbane and Beijing. I have practically played only what the usual calendar sends, what happens is that many games have been played, and luckily everything went well, "he said. The player also spoke about the Swiss Roger Federer who highlighted his "fantastic year". "It is a success on his part, what he has achieved is very difficult. Playing so little, having the ability to win practically every time you play again has a very big risk, "he said.
Whoa! This really is one of the most useful things on the topic I have ever read. Thank you for your work.
It is a really great resource!So much helpful information and handy tips, thank you.

Netflix Series Exposes Govt-Connected Child Sex Ring in Baltimore, Police Forced to Respond
(Matt Agorist) A Netflix series, titled, The Keepers, exposed a dark underground child sex ring involving the church, politicians, and cops. Does this sound familiar? What a shame.
The Baltimore police has had to set up an online submission form to handle people coming forth after watching the series.
While the series is on Netflix for the world's entertainment, the harsh truth is that it really happened. After the church attempted to keep it quiet by paying off the victims under the table, the documentary has exposed these monsters to the world.
The seven-part documentary series, which premiered on Friday, also covers the unsolved murder of one of the teachers, Sister Catherine Ann Cesnik. On Tuesday, enough former victims had seen the documentary that they began calling the Baltimore police department to report their abuse.
Baltimore Police have since made an online submission form available for those who would want to report any instances of sexual abuse related to the series.
"We have been contacted by victims from the past who want to report the sex offenses that occurred to them. The murder investigation related to this Netflix series was handled by the Baltimore County Police Department," the website reads.
Because, Maskell, the monster behind this widespread rape and abuse, was well-connected int the political realm, he brought others into his sick ring to prey on these young girls.
Maskell's brother was a high-ranking city cop. This connection had two facets. First, it allowed him to cover up their crimes using these police connections. Second, it allowed for these depraved police officers to enter into this dark child sex ring.
According to Jean Wehner, the woman at the center of the abuse, Maskell operated this sex abuse ring, bringing in outside men — many of them police officers and local politicians — to take part in the abuse.
When Wehner confessed the abuse to Sister Cathy Cesnik, Cesnik became determined to put a stop to it. However, that is exactly what got her murdered.
This is happening all over the country and the world. Hopefully for not much longer.
San Bernardino County deputy arrested for alleged sex with teen Explorer Scout
December 2016: David Israel Ceballos, who had been working with the Sheriff's Department for 14 years, was booked into the Central Detention Center on charges of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor and sexual penetration with a foreign object on a minor. His bail was set at $100,000.
"It is unfortunate that the actions of a few over the last decade have cast a negative light on a program many deputies and explorers work hard to make a premier youth program in our county," McMahaon said. "It is my expectation that we thoroughly investigate and swiftly take action in cases like this so as to not deter the positive motivation of those involved in the program."

News of mass arrests related to porn and trafficking rings are popping up all around the web, despite efforts of concealment. The very agencies that claim to PROTECT children too often cover for sick individuals who get rich preying on and exploiting children.
These news stories indicate that the highest levels of government, law enforcement, the church are involved. The alleged ring in Riverside County California that our children speak of, included respected members of their communities.
But it goes deeper that just pornography.
In 2016, nearly 400 children were rescued and 348 adults were arrested in a Canadian child pornography sting.
Among those arrested were 40 school teachers, nine doctors and nurses, six law enforcement personnel, nine pastors and priests and three foster parents.
This is real. And we cannot afford to pull the wool over our eyes any longer.

Operation Sunflower
Washington (CNN) — An international operation led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement aimed at child pornography and sexual abuse has resulted in the arrest of 245 suspects, officials announced Thursday. All but 23 of the suspects were apprehended in the United States.
The agency said that during the course of Operation Sunflower, law enforcement officers identified 123 victims of child exploitation and removed 44 of those children from their alleged abusers with whom they were living. The other cases involved victims who were exploited by people outside their homes or children who were harmed years ago and are now adults.
Several of the children were shockingly young. Five were under age 3. Nine were between the ages of 4 and 6. Of the 123 victims, 110 lived in the United States in 19 different states. ICE officials did not identify the six other countries where victims were identified or where some of the arrests were made, citing the need to work discreetly with international law enforcement partners.
According to ICE, some of those arrested during Operation Sunflower were registered sex offenders.
Operation Sunflower was conducted in November and December, but efforts are continuing on other cases. During a news conference, ICE Director John Morton said the agency was calling on the public to provide tips and mentioned several open investigations. One of those cases involves the sexual molestation of an unidentified girl thought to be around 13.
Investigators believe the abuse took place about 11 years ago, but the pornographic images were widely circulated. ICE has posted pictures of an unidentified woman and man suspected of abusing the girl on its website. The woman has some distinctive tattoos that investigators hope will lead to tips about her identity.
Based on a forensic analysis of the pornographic images in that case, investigators think the abuse occurred in the Los Angeles or San Fernando Valley area of California. Although the girl may now be an adult, ICE officials want to identify and prosecute the suspects and prevent them from harming new victims.
"Forensic analysis technology has become critical in the fight against child exploitation," Morton said. "We are coming across these images on the Internet. They are being produced in one country but shared literally around the world, often in real time."
Morton said ICE works with other law enforcement agencies and with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children to look for clues in the pictures of abuse to identify where the acts occurred and track down the victims and perpetrators.
The name Operation Sunflower was chosen to commemorate a case from 2011 in which Danish law enforcement officials shared images and chat board information about a 16-year-old boy who allegedly planned to rape an 11-year-old girl. One image taken from a moving car showed a road sign with a sunflower on it. ICE's Homeland Security Investigations determined that the road sign was unique to Kansas. Agents were then able to find the exact stretch of road where the picture was taken and to locate the girl.

2 Rialto police officers resign, 4 disciplined amid sex scandal investigation
In September 2015, former social workers Eric Bahra and Mary Anna Whitehall filed separate lawsuits in San Bernardino Superior Court alleging whistleblower retaliation.
Bahra, who only worked for the county for 11 months, alleged he was fired after reporting 39 children, over the span of 12 years, being placed into a foster home where the father was accused in 2013 of sexually abusing some of the children, taking nude photographs of them and placing them in photo albums.
Whitehall alleges in her lawsuit that she was placed on administrative leave six days after she and two other social workers filed motions in juvenile dependency court alleging the Department of Children and Family Services committed fraud upon the court in order to discredit Bahra, which ultimately led to his termination.
But DCFS officials, Whitehall alleges, falsified evidence and told the court Bahra lied in his reports and breached confidentiality. They recommended the four surviving children be returned to their biological parents. By doing so, DCFS jeopardized the safety of the four children, Whitehall alleges.

Main article: Child trafficking
Child trafficking is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring or receipt of children for the purpose of exploitation.[49]
Children are trafficked for purposes such as of commercial sexual exploitation, bonded labor, camel jockeying, child domestic labor, drug couriering, child soldiering,illegal adoptions, begging.[50][51][52]
It is difficult to obtain reliable estimates concerning the number of children trafficked each year, primarily due to the covert and criminal nature of the practice.[53][54]
The International Labor Organization estimates that 1.2 million children are trafficked each year.

Here are some of the less obvious indicators that you might not be as emotionally intelligent as you thought.
1) You're Too Nice. Probably the biggest myth surrounding EI is that it's all about "playing nice" with others and avoiding conflict. This view is profoundly mistaken. EI is about knowing when and how to use emotions: not being assertive enough can be just as bad as being too assertive.
2) You Can't Apologise, Admit Mistakes, Change Your Mind, Handle Criticism, or Laugh at Yourself. All these issues are rooted in too much ego, too little humility.
4) You Can't Name More Than Three Basic Manners. Here are ten: Saying "Please" and "Thank you." Waiting your turn. Saying "Excuse Me." Not staring or pointing at others. Sharing with others. Eating with your mouth closed. Not slurping. Cleaning up after yourself. Asking permission to borrow someone's stuff. Respecting people's personal space.
5) The Thought of Asking for a Raise or Promotion Makes You Deeply Uncomfortable. Ask yourself: Is confidence, rather than competence, the real issue?
6) You Suffer From FOMO. If you can't go more than an hour without checking your phone or Facebook, you may have FOMO: Fear Of Missing Out.
7) You Brood Like Batman. Batman is an awesome crime-fighting superhero, but as an emotional role model… not so much. Too much time spent alone in a cave just isn't healthy.
8) You Can't Meditate. Some people can meditate, but don't. But others can't. There are those who fundamentally cannot bear to be alone in a room by themselves with only their mind and emotions for company.


Description: The game was bundled with Coleco's Roller Controller and can't be played without it.
Box Text: Slither is similar in nature to the hit arcade game Centipede by Atari. You control your snake as it slither's around the screen. Where this game differs greatly from Centipede is that you can shoot in 4 different directions at the same time to take out the baddies trying to hunt you down. The bad snakes hunting you down will appear from various angles on the screen, often several at a time.

Mother Nature left human kind a huge gift! Its called Scandinavia and The Baltic regions of Europe. The region takes up what are the vast fertile lands of Northern Europe.
With a long growing season in summer, with 12 hours or more of daylight, inhabitants were able to prepare to survive the brutal winters that followed.
Typically a Baltic cruise offers you overnights in some of the cities along the way including cosmopolitan Stockholm and St. Petersburg, Russia. You will also explore charming historical regions like Tallinn and Gdańsk. You'll visit Helsinki, Berlin, Copenhagen, Bergen, Oslo, as well as the crown jewels that include the breathtaking scenery of the majestic Norwegian fjords — the Vikings ultimate homeland. Some cruises go up into the Arctic Circle where the sun never sets in summer. Its a stunning opportunity to enjoy being at the top of the world.
The crown jewel of any Baltic cruise is your two or three days spent in St. Petersberg, Russia. If you have never seen the milk sky that is the "White Nights" of summer, you are in for a treat. This experience is unlike any other — with a sky that is literally milky white during the month of July.
Cuba — in the footsteps of Hemingway!
Your blog is so good I want to go right now!! lET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT TO GO., PRICES FROM JUST $999 PER PERSON DOUBLE OCCUPANCY ON SOME CRUISES.


We were the first source in the world to announce that NVIDIA's unannounced Pascal-based Tegra would power Nintendo's next-gen NX console, and it seems more and more outlets are confirming this news - including the latest leak on NX.
According to Direct Feed Gaming, Nintendo NX will be 3-4x more powerful than the Wii U (in raw Gigaflops numbers), adding that game developers won't have too much trouble porting over their Xbox One and PS4 games to NX. Nintendo's new NX console will support Unreal Engine 4 and other mainstream gamer engines, making game ports much easier.
Nintendo will most likely skip on 4K and HDR support for NX, and that the "hybrid" side of the console might be interesting, but all of the other crazy rumors are supposedly just that, rumors.

Empirical Creative's Jury Consultants and Graphic Designers have spent the last decade working intensely with clients to obtain favorable outcomes in a broad range of high-stakes litigation matters. Our clients include many top-tier law firms, and the cases we have consulted on include some of the most noted civil and criminal matters in recent history. Our dedication to independent thinking, sound research principles and creative, yet practical trial strategy, jury selection and persuasive graphics advice makes us highly-sought after in the industry.
I worked with Empirical Creative on a very complex and challenging health care case in California. The exposure was in the billions of dollars, and the defense was highly technical. The defense team struggled with the question of how to present highlight technical material to the Judge and jury. Empirical Creative was fantastic. Through several iterations of both presentations and graphics, they developed an approach that allowed us to present the technical issues we need to present in a way that our audiences could hear and understand. The results were terrific. The EC team worked tirelessly (day and night for weeks on end) working up new approaches and graphics, and then presenting the work to the client representatives and, ultimately, to mock juries. During this work, I was extremely impressed by the talent and dedication of the entire staff. And I was most impressed with the ability of Jim Dobson and David Klein to work through difficult problems with us under a great deal of stress in a very effective, efficient, and professional manner. The EC team brought an element of creativity to our presentation that I would not have been able to bring myself, and for that I am extremely grateful. If you have a bet the business case, this is the team to have sitting next to you.
"Among the keys to success in high stakes complex business litigation, is the ability to tell a story to the jury, rigorously consistent with the facts, that places the client in the most favorable light. Over the past 40 years I have worked with a number of jury consultants but none more talented or creative as Jim Dobson and Dave Klein. They work tirelessly and effectively with the trial team and the client to create both the most effective oral presentation and compelling demonstrative graphics to assist the jury's understanding of complex facts.
Assessing risk and advising senior management and the Board of Directors is a critical function for a General Counsel. The difference between guessing and knowing is research. Instead of relying on guesswork, speculation or groupthink, Empirical Creative puts you in the position, with your trial team, to make informed decisions based upon an analysis of the trier of fact.

Q: TypeDescriptor replacement in PCL TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(Type) is a very convientent way to serialize/deserialize lots of built-in data types to/from strings:
object original = ...;

string serialized = TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(t).ConvertToInvariantString(original);
object deserialized = TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(t).ConvertFromInvariantString(serialized);

Unfortunately, TypeDescriptor is not available in portable class libraries.
Is there a canonical replacement or do we have to go back to huge switch statements?

A: TypeDescriptor is not available in PCLs, but it might be available on the actual client using the PCL.
This is the workaround I used to inject the Mono TypeDescriptor from a Xamarin Android project:
PCL:
public interface IPclWorkaround
{
    ConvertFromInvariantString(Type type, string s);
}

Xamarin Android:
[assembly: Dependency(typeof(PclWorkaround))]

class PclWorkaround : IPclWorkaround
{
    public object ConvertFromInvariantString(Type type, string s)
    {
        return TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(type).ConvertFromInvariantString(s);
    }
}

Usage in PCL:
var myObject = DependencyService.Get<IPclWorkaround>.ConvertFromInvariantString(type, myString);

A: FWIW, fortunately this is covered in .NET Standard 2.0.
.Net Standard 1.4 is already accessible using XF (Xamarin Forms). Hopefully, real soon (vNext), with the official release of 2.0, Mono and in turn XF.iOS, XF.Droid, XF.Mac and UWP, will also join the party and all those missing APIs will be available in XF, as seen in this table.

A: You can not use TypeDescriptor in PCL projects because it is not built as a PCL and it is not cross platform. The TypeDescriptor is unavailable in PCL projects and it is not listed here.
The following assemblies are available within a Portable Class Library project:

• mscorlib.dll
• System.dll
• System.Core.dll
• System.Xml.dll
• System.ComponentModel.Composition.dll
• System.Net.dll
• System.Runtime.Serialization.dll
• System.ServiceModel.dll
• System.Xml.Serialization.dll
• System.Windows.dll (from Silverlight)


La nonna forever stirring polenta. Lamb slowly roasting in a wood-burning hearth. Startling simplicity and direct, honest flavors. Sure, we can spend another millennium savoring these age-old clichés. But where's the contemporary Italian food scene?In the land of Versace and Prada, what answers to Californian fusion or Catalan fizz? Loaded with clues from the top Italian restaurant critics, I went in search of 10 emerging chefs whose pots offer a glimpse into the future of Italy's alta cucina. Did I expect culinary cross-dressing and other postmodern bravado?Not exactly, but the results were, well, unexpected.
Surprise No. 1: Call it the umbilical factor. Ties to land and family are so entrenched, the new restaurant scene remains unapologetically anti-urban. Don't look for innovation in Rome or Turin, or even Milan.

Album Review: Young Culture — Blue
November 22, 2017 Spinning Thoughts Dan Bowyer Leave a comment
Young Culture — Blue
Albany, New York's Young Culture inject a breath of fresh air into the scene with their new EP Blue, set to be released on November 24th, 2017. The follow up to their first EP which was released in 2016 but recorded in 2014, Blue is laden throughout with poppy guitar hooks and the upbeat vocals of lead singer Alex Magnan. "This record is a lot more mature" shares Magnan. "We took a lot of time and really thought through the songs from melodies to song structures".
Young Culture's music is progressing, and so too is their live show. Having already shared the stage with the likes of State Champs and Knuckle Puck, the band just concluded a run with Certainty and Locals Only in Canada, followed by some time on the road in the US alongside The Weekend Classic. Young Culture is seeing growth in their performances, having new fans greet them as they arrive in a city for the first time. "We played South Carolina and there were people who knew the words, it's a cool experience" says guitarist Gabe Pietrafesa. In preparation for the release of Blue, some of the songs that appear on it such as "Pure Gold" and "Bloom" are being incorporated into the band's sets, and both fans and Young Culture themselves are enjoying them. "We're getting good reception on the new songs, they feel great to play" says Magnan.
As the future beckons, there are exciting things on the horizon for Young Culture. Having just connected with Passenger Entertainment, the band is excitedly anticipating 2018. "It's going to be a good year" says Pietrafesa. If Blue is any indication, listeners too can excitedly anticipate good things from Young Culture.
