Left to their own devices, I feel like kids naturally explore with their whole bodies. Not to mention - they are often exploring new skills like dumping and pouring! I have yet to meet a toddler that didn't enjoy dumping things everywhere (or was horribly inaccurate with pouring)! So when S was younger, I wouldn't give her a huge container of rice or water like I do now. I would give her a much smaller amount. That way when it did get everywhere, I had an easier time cleaning it up. With water, I quickly learned that I didn't need to give her a full container of water for it to be fun. I could give her just enough that a towel/clothing would soak it all up! She would still have fun, and then when it inevitably spilled, we wouldn't be left with a soaking carpet.
2. Cover your floor according to your material.
If we are playing with dry sensory materials, I generally just use a splat mat. A splat mat can be anything that's waterproof. Initially we used a waterproof disposable tablecloth I found at Target for $2. It did work for quite awhile, but eventually wore through. Now we use 2 yards of oilcloth fabric and I think it's ideal. Oilcloth is very thick and sturdy - if you can afford it, I'd definitely recommend buying the oilcloth to use as your splat mat. There are also commercially produced splat mats - they will cost a bit more, but they have finished edges and designs, so you could also buy a premade one if that's your preference. Once we're done playing, I just fold up the splat mat and pour the excess back into our storage container.
If we are playing with wet sensory materials, I will either lay out a towel on top of the splat mat (this is my usual method for dealing with water) or I will lay out a sheet on top of the splat mat (for something like cornstarch and water or gelatin). I might still need to wipe down the splat mat after we're done playing, but this makes it much easier. I just toss the towel or sheet directly into the wash with any dirty clothes and that's it!
Particularly with extra messy things like cornstarch and water or paint, I talk with S about how we're going to do things (I also talk it through with X, but he's a bit too little still to follow all of it, I think!). I remind her of the rules (staying on the mat until we're done playing) and state if we're going to go straight to a bath, etc. If it is something they'll need to have washed off in the bath - I make sure I set out soap, towels, etc ahead of time - as these things are much harder to grab while carrying a paint covered child, hahaha. Often the mess is not bad enough to warrant a whole bath, so I just rinse arms and legs in the sink - in which case I make sure to have a towel waiting next to the sink.
Messy play is for sure easiest outside. But sometimes the weather isn't great (particularly when you live in Seattle!). As far as indoor play, there's the bathtub, or there's the floor. While the bathtub does contain the mess really well (and they're already there for clean-up!), I do appreciate that the floor is less slippery and affords more space for play. Over time, I feel like I've gotten to the point where the floor is just as easy.
Though messy play can be hard on us adults (hahaha), I feel like kids really blossom with it. I hope that those of you who have never tried it will give it a shot. The Super Easy Sensory Plays are a great place to start. If you're new to messy play, I'd really recommend starting with something "easy" like water play or rice play and then gradually moving up to something more messy like painting or cornstarch and water.
Hi, my name is Muriel and my son is 18 months old. I try to do a sensory play for him at least once a week and we do it on the kitchen floor because the rest of the house is carpeted.
As you said, I always have a difficult time trying to let him play freely without being messy. We haven't done anything with paint because I fear that he is going to run and stain everything (we live in a rented apartment, adding a little bit more stress).
I will be brave and try, and I think I need to add the talking part, where I explain that we need to stay on the mat and what we are going to do at the end.
I'm loving your blog! We've been having a blast trying out many of the ideas you share in your posts. My 2.5 year old can be a bit particular about certain textures (he has a very strict nothing goopy, nothing sticky policy when it comes to touching things, and loves playing with water, but does not like being wet) so it's been fun to come up with ways to introduce him to more messy play in ways that not only don't freak him out, but that also really engage his interest. I've noticed that he concentrates best on his play when he is standing up, either on a step stool at the kitchen counter, or outside in front of his sand table. This also helps prevent things from getting on his clothes (he finds that upsetting and wants to change right away). Keeping amounts small, as you suggest, has also been a great way to introduce textures that he won't touch in larger amounts--a whole tray of cornstarch and water were met with a "no thank you," but a few tablespoons of the mixture really intrigued him and he set right to work exploring it with his little construction vehicles. And giving him lots of little measuring spoons and containers for transferring liquids enables him to explore messy materials without actually touching them directly. I've been noticing that the more of these activities we try with these little adaptations, the less he seems to mind (or notice) when something gets on his hands or his clothes, so I think it's been a good way to help him explore messy play. I just wanted to share this experience for other parents and caregivers of reluctant goop-touchers!
That is SO helpful! What great ways you've found to introduce messy play in a non-intimidating way. I love it! Would you mind sharing this on my FB wall so I can reshare? I think a lot of people would find this information useful, and I'm worried not all of them will see it as a comment here. You can find our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/funathomewithkids (if you aren't already there). If you share it there, I will assume I have your OK to reshare on the main wall? Thank you so much! I love these solutions!!!!!
Hello, what a lot of great play ideas. We have done a lot of messy play at home, not so much the last 6 months due to having our new addiction, we have miss 2, 4 and 7 month old baby girl. my oldest loves messy play, and H had a wee giggle when I saw the photo of the wee one covered in blue paint. my girl does that too, from head to toe, literally. was good reading about some new sensory play experiences, thankyou, I will try with my miss 7 months, wonder how she will react to it.
Hi Christina! Ohhh, head to toe blue - I hope you have photos! Sounds hilarious! Glad you found us!!!!
Asia, you are beyond amazing and such an inspiration. My son is a very curious and very busy 8 month old. I am so very excited about sensory play and absolutely LOVE all of your ideas. I am a SAHM and lately, I have found that I am absolutely burnt out. I needed to stumble upon something simple, fun, and engaging like this to get me back into my creative "awesome mom" groove. LOL. Thank you!!!
I found this really helpful, thank you. I have a 5 and a 2 year old and my eldest was never really that into messy play, so I could just tell him to keep the activity in the tray and he pretty much would. However my daughter is much more of a creative, get-stuck-right-in child (and not as good at listening to instructions!) so I am aware that I ought to offer her more sensory play activities but I must admit I can't quite bring myself to yet! Your post gave me some good ideas for managing it that I hadn't thought of. Thank you!


Abstract: The financial crisis has re-ignited the fierce debate about the merits of financial globalization and its implications for growth, especially for developing countries. The empirical literature has not been able to conclusively establish the presumed growth benefits of financial integration. Indeed, a new literature proposes that the indirect benefits of financial integration may be more important than the traditional financing channel emphasized in previous analyses. A major complication, however, is that there seem to be certain "threshold" levels of financial and institutional development that an economy needs to attain before it can derive the indirect benefits and reduce the risks of financial openness. In this paper, we develop a unified empirical framework for characterizing such threshold conditions. We find that there are clearly identifiable thresholds in variables such as financial depth and institutional quality—the cost-benefit trade- off from financial openness improves significantly once these threshold conditions are satisfied. We also find that the thresholds are lower for foreign direct investment and portfolio equity liabilities compared to those for debt liabilities.
Abstract: This paper introduces a significant collection of papers on monetary policy in emerging market economies, written by leading analysts and policymakers. Does existing economic theory provide lessons that are pertinent for designing effective monetary policy frameworks in emerging markets? What can be learnt from cross-country studies and from experiences of individual countries that have adopted different approaches? While country-specific circumstances and initial conditions matter a great deal in formulating suitable frameworks, are there clear general principles that can serve as a guide in this process? These are among the issues addressed in the dialogue between academics and policymakers represented in the volume. In this paper, we provide an overview of the main issues, linking them to broader debates in the academic literature as well as an assessment of how individual countries have chosen to respond to specific policy challenges and what the consequences have been. We discuss many controversies where there are still sharp differences in views between and amongst theorists and practitioners. We also delineate a few key analytical issues where there is still a yawning gap between theory and practice. In the process, we set out a broad agenda for further re- search in this area.
Abstract: Critical appraisals of the current and potential benefits from developing country engagement in the WTO focus mainly on the Doha Round of negotiations. This paper examines a different aspect of developing country participation in the WTO: use of the WTO dispute settlement system to enforce foreign market access rights already negotiated in earlier rounds of multilateral negotiations. We examine data on developing country use from 1995 through 2008 of the WTO Dispute Settlement Understanding (DSU) to enforce foreign market access. The data reveal three notable trends: developing countries' sustained rate of self-enforcement actions despite declining use of the DSU by developed countries, developing countries' increased use of the DSU to self-enforce their access to the markets of developing as well as developed country markets, and the prevalence of disputes targeting highly observable causes of lost foreign market access, such as antidumping, countervailing duties, and safeguards. The paper also examines how introduction of the Advisory Centre on WTO Law (ACWL) into the WTO system in 2001 has affected developing countries' use of the DSU to self-enforce their foreign market access rights. A first pass at the data indicates that developing country use of the ACWL mirrors their use of the DSU more broadly; the ACWL has had little effect in terms of introducing new countries to DSU self-enforcement. A closer look at the data reveals evidence on at least three channels through which the ACWL may be enhancing developing countries' ability to self-enforce foreign market access: increased initiation of sole-complainant cases, more extensive pursuit of the DSU legal process for any given case, and initiation of disputes over smaller values of lost trade.
Abstract: We review the large literature on various economic policies that could help developing economies effectively manage the process of financial globalization. Our central findings indicate that policies promoting financial sector development, institutional quality and trade openness appear to help developing countries derive the benefits of globalization. Similarly, sound macroeconomic policies are an important prerequisite for ensuring that financial integration is beneficial. However, our analysis also suggests that the relationship between financial integration and economic policies is a complex one and that there are unavoidable tensions inherent in evaluating the risks and benefits associated with financial globalization. In light of these tensions, structural and macroeconomic policies often need to be tailored to take into account country specific circumstances to improve the risk-benefit tradeoffs of financial integration. Ultimately, it is essential to see financial integration not just as an isolated policy goal but as part of a broader package of reforms and supportive macroeconomic policies.
Abstract: This paper does not address the issue of aid effectiveness—that is, the extent to which foreign aid dollars actually achieve their goals—but instead focuses on "best practices" in the way in which official aid is given, an important component of the wider debate. First, we discuss best practice for an ideal aid agency and the difficulties that aid agencies face because they are typically not accountable to their intended beneficiaries. Next, we consider the transparency of aid agencies and four additional dimensions of aid practice: specialization, or the degree to which aid is not fragmented among too many donors, too many countries, and too many sectors for each donor); selectivity, or the extent to which aid avoids corrupt autocrats and goes to the poorest countries; use of ineffective aid channels such as tied aid, food aid, and technical assistance; and the overhead costs of aid agencies. We compare 48 aid agencies along these dimensions, distinguishing between bilateral and multilateral ones. Using the admittedly limited in- formation we have, we rank the aid agencies on different dimensions of aid practice and then provide one final comprehensive ranking. We present these results as an illustrative exercise to move the aid discussion forward.
30. Reform of Quota and Voting Shares in the International Monetary Fund: "Nothing" Is Temporarily Preferable to an Inadequate "Something"
Abstract: A prosperous, stable world economy is in the self interest of every nation—large or small, rich or poor. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is a worldwide intergovernmental institution that can facilitate that prosperity and stability. Because every nation has a stake, each should participate in the IMF's governance and operations. The value to each nation of an effective IMF increases as the world economy and financial system become more integrated.

Memorandum from F.A.G. Carter [Patriation of the Constitution] to Mr. Robertson (27 November 1975)
By: F.A.G. Carter
Citation: Memorandum from F.A.G. Carter to Mr. Robertson (27 November 1975).
*This document contains handwritten notes. Please see PDF to view them.*
MEMORANDUM FOR MR. ROBERTSON
c.c. M. Jodouin
Mr. Hurley
Mrs. Reed
Patriation of the Constitution
I have read your memorandum of November 27 and the attached copy of a memorandum you propose to send to the Prime Minister on the above subject. The latter reports on the discussions which I had with Arthur Tremblay and goes on to suggest a course of action.
Your description of Arthur's points is correct although it may exaggerate his intentions. To give you the setting, perhaps I could describe briefly my recollections of his thoughts. Arthur said that the handling of the patriation question was now "normal" in Quebec. By this he meant that he and his organization (Intergovernmental Affairs) had been charged with the responsibility. Henceforth he would be the one who would decide whether or not to seek Julien Chouinard's advice. He said that he was now in the process of preparing a submission to Cabinet which would give the Quebec Cabinet the first chance to have a thorough discussion of what was at issue. A date between December 10 and December 17 was to be set aside by the Cabinet for that discussion.
I indicated my worry about the "normalization" of the handling of the file in Quebec. I welcomed the presence of Arthur in the ball-game but made clear to him that only a very small group beside the Prime Minister were aware of the proposals in Ottawa. The other Premiers were not at all aware of all the later discussions which have taken place with Quebec.
[Page 2]
Arthur said he accepted the need for secrecy but he said it would also be quite impractical for the government to go into the Assemblee nationale with any proposal concerning patriation without having thought cut carefully all the consequences. He felt that the proclamation as it now stood would not receive approval generally in Quebec. I told him that for us, the latest version of the proclamation was the end of the line and that we had probably gone as far as possible. Arthur said that he recognized our Prime Minister's desire to avoid opening the question of distribution of powers or adding materially to what was in the Victoria Charter. He thought however that even within the context of those restrictions, quite a bit could be done. He then went on to list the various possibilities which you have mentioned in your note to the Prime Minister.
Probably Arthur would have in mind a subtle approach to changes in the draft proclamation. His idea of First Ministers being able to act as a backstop to decisions by the Supreme Court on the Constitution which upset the political balance could be considered radical or could, on the other hand, involve a very modest expression such as "First Ministers will meet once a year to consider matters of general and/or constitutional importance". On the question of the spending power, he did not seem to be re-opening the proposal for limiting that power which had been talked about prior to Victoria but was instead linking it in a positive way to an exhortation (if not a requirement) to spend money on equalization payments.
Jim Hurley will be sending you a separate note on the possibility of an offer being made to the provinces, within a certain frame of limitations, to embark upon aspects of constitutional review once patriation has been accomplished. Arthur made it clear that such an assurance was important to Quebec. While he would like to see something on it in the proclamation he would also be satisfied with a formal exchange of letters.
I say all of the above to indicate that the sorts of things Arthur is talking about could be utterly impossible to accept or might be acceptable, depending on how they are put. Given that situation and given the fact that Mr. Bourassa will certainly have to find at least one or two small bones to give his Cabinet when they have their formal consideration of the subject in a couple of weeks, the Prime Minister in speaking to Mr. Bourassa could probably warn him strongly against seeking changes in substance but should probably not cut off at this stage of the game the possible acceptance of minor changes.
I believe the time has come to tell Mr. Bourassa of the federal fall-back position. It is only in the knowledge of that position that he will be able to decide how best to control his Cabinet in bringing forward reasonable further changes. If he fails, he will have done so with an advance knowledge of the consequences.
Having said all of this, you might wish to reflect the one thought of any importance above by adding a short P.S. to your note to the Prime Minister suggesting he not cut Bourassa off totally from any change whatever in the proposed proclamation.

Q: Why is it hard to make a Java program 'appear native'? Most Java applications don't look the same as C/C++ applications. Swing might have been designed on purpose to have a distincitve look, but based on what I've read, SWT for example tried to 'look native', and doesn't completley succeed.
My question is:
Why is it hard for the developers of the Java language to design a GUI system that copies exactly the look of native GUIs? What's different in native GUIs? Isn't it only a matter of designing buttons that look like 'native' buttons? Or does it go deeper than that?

A: It's not hard to make a button that looks like an OSX button, or a Windows button, or that of any other toolkit. But the UI guidelines for most environments are not as simple as the basics of "this is what a button looks like." There are many subtler differences, from the spacing between UI elements to the order in which certain well-known actions should appear in a list to the exact position of the Preferences/Options dialog in the menu system. One can automate the most common cases for very simple user interfaces, but many if not most UI tasks require a much finer touch.
SWT tried to automate this to some degree, and once again, it gets it right for simple UI tasks. But there is no one-size-fits-all solution, and so when UIs get more complex, the basic methods it uses begin to fall apart. It is generally possible to bring it back into line with painstaking manual UI work, but this is not something that most programmers are able or willing to do for all platforms.
Swing's approach to this was simply to eschew native toolkits whenever possible. It's not native, and it doesn't try to be: instead, it tries to create something that will look (almost) the same no matter where it is run. Rather than trying (futilely) to please everyone, it tried to please itself, and while it succeeded as far as that goes, one can question how effective the result is to the wider community of users.

A: There are literally half a dozen of toolkits that could be considered "native" on some system. Some of these have rather unique concepts or capabilities, and replicating them in a cross-platform toolkit is tedious. The look & feel  of an application is not only determined by a "skin", but also on the layout and how it behaves. Some considerations:

*

*In a dialog, on which side does the "OK" button belong – on the left or on the right? Fair enough, let's build a separate dialog for each system.

*How do we mark the default button on a screen? Color tinting, bold font, enlarging the button? Fair enough, let's put that in a stylesheet.

*On Windows, the "Ribbon" concept is rather native. How would this be translated to Mac, where the Ribbon isn't common? Fair enough, let's forget pixel-exact layout and provide a different toolbar implementation for each system.

*Is the menu bar part of the window (Windows, optionally KDE), or does it sit at the top of the screen (Mac, Unity)? Fair enough, let's write a different implementation for each system, as we've already thrown away pixel-exact layout

*How are the fonts rendered? As crisp as possible, or smooth and antialiased? And what font should be used? Note that different fonts have different metrics, so the same paragraph rendered to the same width may have a different number of lines depending on the font.

*Is the background of a window a single color, an image, or a gradient? Let's just put that into a stylesheet as well.

*How do scrollbars look? Where are the buttons – if they have any? How wide are they, or are they only revealed when the pointer moves into a certain region?

*How do we incorporate other color schemes?

*What is expected to be draggable? Where are context menus expected?

These issues can't be solved through a simple stylesheet when they touch on the behavior or general layout of the application. The only real solution is to re-write the application for each system (thus ignoring Java's cross-platform benefits). The only realistic solution is to forget about pixel-exact layout, and to write to a common interface which abstracts over over system-specific toolkits. The solution taken by Swing is to emulate various systems, which fails spectacularly.
And then there is cross-platform consistency, the idea that your app can look exactly the same on all systems (often chosen by games, where this increases immersion). On desktop applications, this is just annoying and breaks user expectations.

A: There is a trade-off between expecting your application to look as natural as possible on every system and expecting your application to work in the same way on each system. There is no "right" choice.
Moreover, even if you choose the "natural looking" side, you might want to protect the users of your graphic toolkit against "improvements" in the underlying native components and API which might break their application unexpectedly.
This is why some GUI toolkit developers prefer to provide their own components that mimic native ones, but provide their own implementation. On the other hand developing a functionally complete GUI toolkit is a significant effort and economic considerations may lead to cutting a few edges.
Note that this problem is not Java specific, but is faced by every company producing platform independent toolkits.

A:
Isn't it only a matter of designing buttons that look like 'native' buttons?

Well - sort of, for buttons. But this might be harder than you imagine. These days the graphics used to represent GUI components aren't as simple as random bitmaps that are stretched (since these don't scale very well at all) - they're often vector based graphics with a lot of corner cases programmed into them (so when the button reaches the edge of the screen it may look slightly different, for instance.) And of course, you'll need different graphics when a button is clicked. For copyright reasons, developers often can't just use these existing graphics outright, so they have to be recreated - and while they do a good job for the most part, inevitably some things get missed given the huge array of graphical components out there. This is much less severe than it used to be - these days if I set the default platform look and feel in Swing, I notice very little that looks odd.
I'm saying all the above based on Swing, which is of course a lightweight, non-native GUI toolkit. You specifically mention SWT not looking native, which is a bit odd, because SWT is native. It's a toolkit that uses JNI underneath to call native components - so if something doesn't look right there, it's not going to be because of the look and feel.

A: It's all due to history.
Sun wished all Java software to work the same on all machines.
For software to "appear native" it has to work the same as other software on the given OS.
Sun did everything in their power to make it hard to write Java software that integrated in with an OS, as any integration with an OS would make the software work differently on each OS.
These days very few Java programmers care about anything other than web server based software.
Sun killed Java on the desktop by shafting all programmers that used the Microsoft java based systems, hence making any programmer that choose Java in the early days look bad.
Anyone writing desktop software that care about "appear native" learned a long time ago not to use Java and has their views reinforced every time they use any Oracle software.
Therefore these days there is no demand for "appear native" on desktop software from Java programmers.

A: What you think is native is actually native apps doing their own thing while toolkits like SWT follow the published standards for the UI of that OS. The problem is that no one builds apps following those standards so when you fire up a Java app. It appears to not be native. As an example, almost all of Microsoft's projects (Office, Outlook, etc.) cannot be reproduced visually using Windows standard controls.
It's going to get even worse as both Microsoft and Apple add dynamic UI features to their OS platforms. Allowing developers to skin/style their apps much the same way web designs create styles for websites.
Java on the Android platform is following this path. Making the UI elements for Android defined in XML with skinnable styles.
Java has never been very popular as a desktop platform. As a result these changes in the industry are not propagating down to the desktop runtimes. There just aren't enough developers willing to spend time to fix the issue.

A: Yes, it does go deeper.
Building a button which looks like a Windows or OS X button is easy, when you are building only this button. But the button must "behave" like the original ones, which might not be easy: maybe there is more space in one version available, but not in the other, maybe the color is more fitting for your design in the Windows version, etc.
This is excarberated when you have a whole GUI: an OS X program presents its content differently than a Windows program. This is next to impossible to capture in one GUI - you would need two GUIs, but not many applications make so much fuss. Instead they are aiming for "looks ok on most systems" - this still looks somewhat alien, but is usable and much easier to develop.

A: Really good question. I always wondered about it myself for a few subsequent years in the past, I thought there was some legit reason behind this, but there really isn't.
I think the answer is rather simple, and a lot of answers are not really digging into the issue.
If your language allows to draw piexel on screen then it is 100% possible to create a gui framework based on it which will mimic Windows form controls looks & feel precisely.
Since Java is crossplatform its also entirely possible to make sure that based on actual running system type (Mac/Windows) UI would choose to look different on both platforms, matching the runtime platform style.
As you can see in XAML for example UI can be easily presented in very structured form and language. Choosing the "native" behaviours is also possible if time is taken to do this.
So it would be possible to create GUI framework which would allow Java developers to get applications which would look native on Mac and Windows.
So we get to Swing, thats just one GUI framework out of potential infinity of GUI frameworks which could be created for Java. It behaves how it was programmed, which doesn't follow the above process and you get weirdly looking apps on both systems. Thats the choice made by Swing developers, noone forced them to do this and to behave that way.

A: Which operating system do you want to look "native" too?
You just can't be native to all of them 100% of the time.
SWT etc. are the best effort approach to look as native to all of them as it gets when you need to reach some compromise.
And in fact, this compromise starts to become more and more hard to reach; not so much because of operating systems, but because of input devices. For touchscreens, you actually have to design differently, because there is no right mouse button. Therefore, you need to accomodate the same functionality otherwise.
There will never be a magic button that moves functionality "intuitively" from the right mouse button to guestures, without you specifiying every detailed aspect for every single input device (at which point, you are native to every platform you have considered, but nevertheless non-native to any you have not considered).

November 9, 2017 EnlaceLeave a Comment on Interfaith Bank Boycott Increases Pressure to Pass Dream Act
Interfaith Bank Boycott Increases Pressure to Pass Dream Act
Via Huffington Post | By Eli S McCarthy
Dreamer Juan Gomez came to the U.S. from Colombia in 1990 at the age of 2 years old. He became an academic star at Killian High School in Miami. During his senior year in 2007, he was placed in deportation proceedings. Yet, the student body president and others organized to save Juan. They persuaded Rep. Diaz-Balart (R-FL) to help introduce a bill to stop the deportation. His case was stayed, and he went to Georgetown University that led to a job at a top financial services firm in New York. However, only the Dream Act will give him and nearly 800,000 other Dreamers a permanent and just solution.
Therefore, Dreamers, immigrant worker groups and interfaith advocacy leaders have initiated a bank boycott campaign to help pass the Dream Act for immigrant youth, who entered the U.S. as children and only know the U.S. as their home. Organizations such as the U.S. Catholic conference of religious men's leaders (CMSM), the Franciscan Action Network, Interfaith Worker Justice, Enlace, and NAKASEC (Korean Dreamers), etc. are driving this campaign. This campaign serves as a key complement to increase and make more effective our leverage on Congress, along with many other more common advocacy tactics.
The boycott is focused on Wells Fargo and Bank of America, which are two of the main funders and profiteers of private prisons, such as GEO and CoreCivic. In turn, Wells Fargo and Bank of America directly enable the detention of immigrants and families as well as an expanding market for such private prisons and detentions. Thus, they are profiting from the rapid increase in detention of immigrants, which includes the increase enabled by ending the DACA program for Dreamers. These banks are also two of the largest banks making direct contributions to key politicians, such as President Donald Trump, Rep. Paul Ryan, Sen. McConnell, Sen. Rubio, Sen. Collins, Sen. Heitkamp, Sen. Manchin, Sen. Hatch, Rep. McCaul, Rep. McCarthy, Rep. Goodlatte, Rep. Peter King, Rep. McSally, Rep. J. Carter, Rep. Katko, and Rep. Walters, etc. who create relevant policy or are key decision-makers for the Dream Act. Some of these politicians hold shares in these banks, while Trump companies have gotten over $1.2 billion in loans from Wells Fargo.
We will continue this boycott at least until President Trump and Congress pass the Dream Act. If there is not such a commitment by December 15, 2017, we will scale-up and broaden our boycott efforts. Organizations and individuals can participate in this boycott in various ways. Sign up here to see these options and so we can track our impact.
It us urgent and just for Congress to act now to pass a clean Dream Act for the good of our country, our economy, and our humanity.

On the first episode of ABC's Boy Band—a mildly entertaining singing competition hosted by veteran TV host Rita Ora—we're introduced to 30 teens desperate to be part of a boy band. Why?
The answer is two words and one of them is "direction." In the tradition of summer filler TV, Boy Band is the type of show you may find yourself sadly watching and enjoying in part simply because it exists on television during a warm month. Were you a fan of the former Making the Band ABC/MTV franchise of the 2000s, which led to the formation of the now defunct bands O-Town, Da Band, Danity Kane and Day 26? Congratulations, you're not in luck, because Boy Band is not as smartly produced as those shows, but it does have a few things going for it.
Currently in its third week and airing tonight, Boy Band bares the DNA of similar talent competitions like American Idol, The X-Factor (which birthed One Direction) and The Voice. In this case, the judges are amusingly labeled "architects" and that includes producer Timbaland, the Spice Girls' Emma Bunton (aka Baby Spice) and Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter—all of whom judge the contestants as if they're describing what they had for breakfast, which is to say they're terrible judges. Almost as important as the extreme optimism of the young contestants on these talent shows is the interaction and banter between the judges; we all know part of the joy of American Idol came with seeing an unreasonably angry man (Simon Cowell) destroy hearts and dreams with just words.
Simon made judging a beautiful art. In comparison, the architects on Boy Band have little to absolutely zero chemistry, which makes their vague, unhelpful evaluations excruciating to watch, in an almost scientific way. "I think I love the look. I love the tattoos," Baby Spice tells a formerly homeless 19-year-old contestant named Miles (who looks like a "Miles"). "Yeah, I like it." She then giggles.
What's interesting is that I was more hypnotized by the crab shots in an Outback Steakhouse commercial than Timbaland's judging, which really makes you appreciate the brain dexterity required to find creative ways to say "Your voice is bad." By the end of week 1, a group of 30 contestants (who were plucked from thousands of auditions) gets narrowed to 18; they're placed into three groups of six and advised to name themselves. The boys choose Uplift, Reverb and Six Track. The first competing six-man group, Uplift, is tasked with performing Bruno Mars's "That's What I Like," a great and tiring song. Watch the video up top and try not to admire and fall in love with them.
An important point: Few of these guys are amazing singers, which perhaps underscores the point that the boy band appeal is more about being cute, harmonizing, synchronizing personalities who make good pop songs??? For example, there's a 14-year-old named J. Hype who performed Kanye West's "Love Lockdown" (a questionable choice!) during his audition, in the key of me-singing-"Love-Lockdown"-at-home and he made it through to the next round anyway because of his beatboxing skills (see the video below) and because he physically resembles a 90210 version of Justin Bieber.
Why am I watching this???

Q: How to add the reference for System.Management in VSCode? How to add the reference for System.Management in VSCode? It always shows the error:

"The type or namespace name 'Management' does not exist in the
namespace 'System'"

I've right clicked on System.Management and there is no option of any reference management. Really don't know how to deal with this.

A: I guess you are developing Xamarin application. System.Management is Windows only namespace/package, you'll need platform specific way of getting the MAC address. Without more details it's hard to tell what exactly you are trying to accomplish but you could take a look at this question: https://stackoverflow.com/a/43885747/1286216
Also, be aware that newer Android devices randomize MAC address.

A: Use the CLI in your project directory to add dependencies in VS Code.
Here is the link from NuGET for System.Management :
https://www.nuget.org/packages/System.Management/
Should be something like that :
 dotnet add package System.Management --version 6.0.0

A: Firstly select the Project in the top left corner.

Then right click the project in solution explorer then click Reference and Add.

Here within the Reference manager dialogue box you can choose the System.(Whatever you want).

Definition of False Teacher: One who presumes to teach in the Name of the Lord when God has not sent him.
Did the Lord put women in spiritual authority over men, or was that someone else's idea? What is the example and teaching of the servants of God? Aimee Semple McPherson came against God's order and teaching, pursued her own agenda, and, as with so many others, leads many astray in her deception even to this day.
Victor wrote this letter to a woman who used the name "Granny." She sent us Aimee Semple McPherson's website when she unsubscribed from The Issues of Life.
"Concerning the works of men, by the Words of Your lips, I am kept from the paths of the destroyer" (Psalms 17:4 MKJV).
Foursquare was started by a woman. God has never indicated in any way in Scripture that He has used females to teach or exercise authority over men. His apostles, pastors, evangelists, teachers, elders and deacons exercising authority with men and churches have been men in Scripture. Why did not the Lord appoint a female apostle?
As for prophets, while there have been women (prophetesses), they have not been in positions of authority, with the exception of one that I know of, and, even there, Barak was free to decide for himself. Deborah could not and did not exercise authority in his life in the matter recorded. Miriam was a prophetess, but she was not there to teach men or exercise authority over them. So with Huldah and others.
Aimee Semple McPherson was a sensationalist, a deceiver, a deluded soul, and not a woman of God, even if she started no church at all. Foursquare comes from her. Those involved are deceived. They do not serve the Lord Jesus Christ.
So this explains why we must preach that which your reject. In your darkness of "love," "faith," and "righteousness," you are perishing. Read Our Testimonies, Counterfeit Christianity, The High Places and The True Marks of a Cult, that is, if you are truly interested in doing God's will rather than your own, or any other. Also read Religious Images, Icons, and Likenesses.
We have removed your address from the mailing list of The Issues of Life.

Global air passenger traffic jumped 6.5 percent in 2015 compared to a year earlier, boosted largely by lower air fares, the Geneva-based International Air Transport Association (IATA) said on Thursday.
"Last year's very strong performance, against a weaker economic backdrop, confirms the strong demand for aviation connectivity," said Tony Tyler, head of IATA.
Last year's hike marked the strongest rise in global air passenger traffic since the global post-financial crisis rebound in 2010, and was well above the ten-year average annual growth rate of 5.5 percent, the association said.
One thing that helped boost demand last year was a five-percent average drop in airfares compared to 2014, IATA said in a statement.
Airline capacity meanwhile rose 5.6 percent, while the average load factor, or percentage of seats occupied, climbed 0.6 points to a record annual high of 80.3 percent.
Carriers in the Asia Pacific region accounted for a full third of the total annual increase in traffic, IATA said.
Growth in international traffic was particularly high, up 6.5 percent, with all regions seeing a rise in demand.
The strongest overall growth was recorded by carriers in the Middle East with a 10.5 percent hike, followed by Latin America, at 9.3 percent, and the Asia-Pacific region at 8.2 percent.
North American carriers saw international demand grow 3.2 percent, while African airlines saw the weakest growth at three percent.
IATA stressed that aviation last year clearly helped boost the global economy.
It lamented though that "some governments still wrongly believe that the value of taxes and charges that can be extracted from air transport outweighs the benefits — economic and social — of connectivity."
IATA pointed among other things to the Italian decision to hike taxes levied on passengers between 33 and 38 percent.
This, it warned, "will damage Italian economic competitiveness, reduce passenger numbers by over 755,000 and GDP by 146 million euros per year," it said, adding that some 2,300 jobs a year were expected to be lost as a consequence of the move.
"At a time when the global economy is showing signs of weakening, governments should be looking for ways to stimulate spending, not discourage it," IATA said.

Sagore Mandire Nilachal (Nilachal with Sea beach & Temples)
No of pages : 143 (with sketches & 16 color pictures)
Puri, the most beloved tourist spot in Orissa, by Bengalis, is also called Nilachal. Apart form its wonderful sea beach, Nilachal Puri abounds by several tourist spots around the temple city.
Just not peeping from Puri, one should stay at the Odissi capital at Bhubaneshwar to visit architecture & sculpture of Odissi temples evolving at different ages right from 6th century to 13th century. One should visit temples like Parashurameshwar, Baital, Mukteshwar, Rajarani, etc., apart from well-known Lingeshwar & Udayagiri-Khandagiri caves.
The world famous Sun Temple of Konark is also described in some details.
The book essentially narrates places of interest in Puri, Bhubaneshwar & Konark, with special emphasis towards its history & temple arts. It presents author's long personal experiences of the area, that may appear quite common to most of the travelers, specially Bengalis.

Ishwar Devta O Srishti (Almighty God, Devas & Creation)
Available at Nath Publishing / Nath Brothers.
Our early civilizations of Sumer-Akkad-Babylon, Egypt, Greece, Kannan etc. viewed their gods & devas in different ways. Each had their own story of Creation of this World.
Our religions in Iran, China, Japan proposed their gods & explained Creation of this World in different ways. The most specific description of Creation came from Old Testament, the Bible, which is the common source for Jews, Christian & Mohammedans. Views expressed in Vedas, Upnishads & Puranas are presented in greater details.
Why there were so many Gods & Devas in so many areas at different ages? Where they all have gone? Why the idea of Creator has not become unique, except some unifying ideas?
In contradiction, when Science took up its stride, it began to explain Creation of this World and evolution of Human being from early hominids. That eventually almost demystifies all religious theory of creations. Science has the right to explore its creation within its methodology but it cannot say anything about a Creator. That's not in its rationality.
Various views of some of our Great Men on the subject, were presented in short. The book tries to present all such views in easy language for common reader.
Under revision.
Kargil Kashmir
Available at Nath Publishing / Nath Brothers
War at Kargil waged in 1999-2000 was described under the backdrop of historic conflict over Kashmir between India & Pakistan. The present War is the continuation of the old conflict that arose along with our Independence.

The book is being revised after decade old victory of Kargil War that is found beset with some controversies.

Capstone Mining Announces Amendments to Corporate Credit Facility
Capstone Mining Corp.
(All amounts in US$ unless otherwise specified)
VANCOUVER, April 21, 2017 /CNW/ - Capstone Mining Corp. ("Capstone") (TSX: CS) has amended its Senior Secured Corporate Revolving Credit Facility ("RCF") to provide for an extension to April 19, 2021 and a reduction in the credit available under the facility.
The amendment:
Extends the maturity of the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement from January 16, 2019 to April 19, 2021;
Reduces the credit limit to $350 million on April 19, 2017 and requires an annual $25 million reduction on each anniversary of the facility to $275 million on April 19, 2020;
Maintains the current pricing grid (starting at LIBOR + 2.5% and adjustable to LIBOR + 3.5% depending on the total leverage ratio) until March 31, 2019, after which date pricing increases to LIBOR + 3.0% (adjustable to LIBOR + 4.5% depending on the total leverage ratio); and
Cancels the accordion feature of $60 million.
All other material terms and conditions of the existing RCF remain in place for the life of the facility.
In addition to the amendment described above, Capstone repaid $10 million on April 19, 2017, reducing drawn debt to $298.9 million.
"This extension of our current low-cost, flexible credit facility, gives Capstone significant financial flexibility and right sizes the facility to meet our current and anticipated operating requirements," said Darren Pylot, President and CEO of Capstone. "Our current drawn debt of approximately $300 million is comfortably within this amended availability and we have a cash balance of over $100 million."
"We plan to apply free cash from operations to reduce debt to a sustainable level at commodity prices that reflect bottom of the cycle prices, which will provide an additional cushion of undrawn credit," continued Mr. Pylot. "This effectively addresses financing risk over the term of the facility, which we believe will correspond to a stabilization and gradual improvement in copper prices."
The amendment of the facility was led by The Bank of Nova Scotia (Co-Lead Arranger, Joint Bookrunner and Administrative Agent), the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (Co-Lead Arranger, Joint Bookrunner and Syndication Agent) and Wells Fargo Bank N.A., Canadian Branch (Documentation Agent). Other syndicate lenders include Citibank, N.A.; Export Development Canada; Bank of Montreal; and ING Capital LLC.

High up, inside a dome above the main mihrab is the most exquisitely carved sculpture I have seen to date. And I find myself gasping in awe. Is this for real? I am not too sure what stuns me more. Its immense size, the fineness of the swirling leaves, or its incongruous placement—I am in a 500-year-old mosque in Champaner in Gujarat, 50-odd kilometres outside Vadodara, and the sculpture is Hindu-Jain in style and content.
For those new to the eclectic mix of religion and spirituality which makes up India, Jainism, along with Hinduism and Buddhism, is one of the major religions which developed in ancient India.
Built in 1484 by the Sultan of Gujarat, Mahmud Begada, and abandoned in 1535 with the advent of the Mughals, the medieval city of Champaner [Mahmud called it Muhammadabad] is one of India's finest representations of this eclectic mix. A mix, however, created more by accident rather than any calculated design to propagate secularism.
So how did this happen? Whilst the orders for the mosque's construction came from a foreign Muslim ruler [the Gujarat Sultans were of Turkish descent], the masons, sculptors and artisans who gave shape to his architectural vision were indigenous Hindus and Jains. The latter, familiar only with their own art, used their personal artistic sensibilities to embellish the structures. The result is a unique style typical to Champaner, later imitated by the British Raj under the name "Indo-Saracenic." Hence, we have domes and minarets decorated with swastikas and diyas.
The deserted city is now, together with the nearby Pavagadh hill, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its prized centrepiece, Jami Mosque, once the main public mosque crumbles around me under the withering sun, suspended in time, whilst a couple of baboons shriek out at me for trespassing into their home.

Breathtaking. And fascinating history. Thanks, as always, for sharing.
Hello Shaun, what a lovely comment! The pleasure is mine. 🙂 Champaner is like a fairytale, a deserted forgotten fairytale replete with towering minarets and laced stonework which lived for just 51 years and was then buried under time.
Lovely article. All religions can peacefully coexist if mankind would truly follow them.
Jain angle to Indo-Saracenic is certainly a new thing!
Yes, and that was my first reaction too. Manoj, my guide, the ex-sarpanch of Champaner village, and whose father, a professor, has carried out immense research on the site including authoring a book on the Champaner-Pavagadh archaeological site, explained it very easily.
Oh my! What beauty…and your elegant use of language describes the scene with intricate detail.
And thank you for taking the time to read my post and comment on it. 🙂 Appreciated.
The artwork is just amazing… Would like to stop by sometime and admire this beauty. And I would like to show my work. As it is a photography blog.
Champaner is a photographer's delight. I hope you make it to the archaeological site some day. And yes, I visited your blog. Good luck with it. 🙂 PS. The picture of the mountain girl is lovely.

Let's get one thing straight right off the bat. Apple butter contains zero actual butter. It's a common misconception. So common, in fact, that I can't think of a single instance where, when apple butter is mentioned, I've not had to explain it's absence of dairy butter. (Maybe it's just the people I hang out with.) It's named so for its texture; thick, smooth, decadent, like butter. It's delicious on toast, biscuits, pancakes, as well as stirred into yogurt which is how I had it this morning.
My first memories of apple butter, like most of my fondest food memories, come from sitting in my Grandma McCallum's kitchen and spreading it on her legendary dinner rolls. I wish I had her recipe but this comes very close to what I remember. If you look at several recipes, as I did, you'll find they are all quite similar… apples, cinnamon, allspice or cloves, and slow cooking.
I like to have at least two varieties of apples, one sweet, one tart, for a more complex flavor. We enjoyed a fun day of apple picking in Hood River last weekend so I had lots to choose from and ended up using four varieties, super sweet Fujis, tart Granny Smiths, flavorful Spitzenburgs, and Winter Banana apples which were perfect for apple butter because they became kind of mealy and weren't that great to eat on their own. If you don't have access to apple orchards, you will be perfectly fine with Fujis, Honey Crisp, Galas or the like for your sweet at the grocery store and you can always count on darling green Granny Smiths for your tart.
food mill – Price ranges from $25 -$50. Also great for making fluffy mashed potatoes, baby food and removing seeds from fruit.
immersion blender – Price ranges from $20 – $400 (seriously), $40 should get you what you need. Really handy for blending soups and sauces on the stove.
splatter screen – Price ranges from $10 – $15. If you ever cook bacon or fry chicken on the stove, you should have one of these. Use both for safety and easier clean-up.
20 qt stock pot or canning pot – Prices range from $20 for a basic canning pot to $80 or more for a heavier duty pot for making stocks and soups.
large mouth funnel – $8 -$10, good to have on hand for all your jar filling needs.
Okay! Now that I've, perhaps, completely overwhelmed you with information, let's make some apple butter! Did I mention you'll also need quite a lot of time (mostly inactive), so read through the recipe before you begin… I promise it's worth it if you're up for the challenge and homemade apple butter makes a great gift for the holidays.
Place apples in a dutch oven or large saucepan with a solid, heavy bottom to prevent scorching.
Pour in cider or juice.
Cover and cook on low heat until apples are soft (a fork should pierce them easily), 30 – 45 minutes.
Fit the food mill with the coarse screen.
Place it over a large mixing bowl.
Fill it with cooked apples (about 1/3 of the apples at a time) and puree until only the skins are left in the bottom of the food mill.
Make sure you scrape the bottom of the screen occasionally. You should end up with approximately 8 cups of apple puree.
Transfer apple puree back to the pan.
Stir in lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.
On medium heat, bring it to a simmer, then cover with a splatter screen or leave it uncovered (don't use the pot cover, it needs the air). Turn heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken, about 1 hour.
Keeping in mind it will take a long time to heat up, fill a large stockpot with water for processing the jars and place on high heat until it boils. You will need to boil the clean, empty jars and lids for at least 10 minutes (for altitudes above 1000 ft, add 1 minute for each additional 1000 ft) to sterilize them before filling them with the apple butter. Using the jar basket, place the empty jars and lids in the boiling water, making sure there is at least an inch of water above the jars. Remove them carefully by lifting the basket out of the water and using the jar tongs to set them on a clean, dry towel. Keep the water warm so it's easy to bring to a boil again after the jars are filled, adding more water as necessary.
After the apple mixture has thickened, using the immersion blender, blend until smooth.
Cook on low heat, stirring occasionally, for about another hour, until it becomes quite thick and similar to caramel in color, as pictured below.
Fill prepared jars, leaving at least 1/4 inch of headspace above the apple butter to the top of the jar. This will allow the lids to seal correctly.
Tap the jar down on the towel a few times to even out the top.
Place the lids on the jars, screwing the lids on lightly, not tightly. Place jars in the basket and lower it into boiling water, leaving at least an inch of water on top. Boil for at least 10 minutes, add 1-minute longer for every 1000 ft for elevations over 1000 ft. I boil mine for 15 minutes just to be on the safe side.
Carefully, remove the jars from the water by lifting the basket out of the water and using the jar tongs to set them on a clean, dry towel. Listen for the "pop" sound to tell you it has sealed. Sometimes it happens right away but it can take several minutes. The middle of the jar should be indented when sealed.
Allow the jars to cool overnight then store in a cupboard or pantry. Put a cute label on them before you give them away. Always refrigerate after opening.
There! That wasn't so hard, right? I swear I'm more exhausted after writing it all out than I was actually making the stuff!
I've been in a crazy, scattered, confused, dark funk lately. It's funny (and by funny I mean exasperating) how things you thought you'd worked through keep coming back to be dealt with when you least expect them. I am coming out of it though and am happy to report, all is well.

Q: MySQL get running difference for unique titles with date I have some data in MySQL table. Its primary key is domain name and tstamp (date). This table is updated just once a week. Now I want to get a difference of one domain in consecutive weeks on UrduCount column.
Following is the table sample data (for just three weeks but will grow in future)
mysql> select * from domainStats order by domain_name limit 10;
+-----------------------+------------+---------+------------+------------+-----------+------------+------+
| domain_name           | TotalLinks | Succeed | NotSucceed | NotFetched | UrduCount | tstamp     | src  |

+-----------------------+------------+---------+------------+------------+-----------+------------+------+

Expected out similar to following (consecutive difference of same domains in consecutive weeks)
www.urdupoint.com   | 2019-10-04 | 20000
www.urdupoint.com   | 2019-09-27 | 30000
www.urdupoint.com   | 2019-09-20 | 10000
...

A: In MySQL 5.x you can use a correlated sub-query:
SELECT domain_name, tstamp, UrduCount - COALESCE((
    SELECT UrduCount
    FROM t AS x
    WHERE x.domain_name = t.domain_name
    AND x.tstamp < t.tstamp
    ORDER BY x.tstamp DESC
    LIMIT 1
), 0) AS diff
FROM t

In MySQL 8 or later you could simply use the LAG function.
