Intracranial identification of an electric frontal-cortex response to auditory stimulus change: a case study
Liasis, A., Towell, A., Alho, K. and Boyd, S. 2001. Intracranial identification of an electric frontal-cortex response to auditory stimulus change: a case study. Cognitive Brain Research. 11 (2), pp. 227-233. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0926-6410(00)00077-X

The aim of the present study was to clarify whether ERPs recorded directly from the human frontal cortex contributed to the auditory N1 and mismatch negativity (MMN) elicited by changes in non-phonetic and phonetic sounds. We examined the role of prefrontal cortex in the processing of stimulus repetition and change in a 6-year-old child undergoing presurgical evaluation for epilepsy. EEG was recorded from three bilateral sub-dural electrode strips located over lateral prefrontal areas during unattended auditory stimulation. EEG epochs were averaged to obtain event-related potentials (ERPs) to repeating (standard) tones and to infrequent (deviant) shorter duration tones and complex sounds (telephone buzz). In another condition, ERPs were recorded to standard and deviant syllables, /ba/ and /da/, respectively. ERPs to vibration stimuli delivered to the fingertips were not observed at any of the sub-dural electrodes, confirming modality specificity of the auditory responses. Focal auditory ERPs consisting of P100 and N150 deflections were recorded to both tones and phonemes over the right lateral prefrontal cortex. These responses were insensitive to the serial position of the repeating sound in the stimulus train. Deviant tones evoked an MMN peaking at around 128 ms. Deviant complex sounds evoked ERPs with a similar onset latency and morphology but with an approximately two-fold increase in peak-to-peak amplitude. We conclude that right lateral prefrontal cortex (Brodmann's area 45) is involved in early stages of processing repeating sounds and sound changes.

The LA story behind Aretha Franklin's best-selling album, 'Amazing Grace' These days, things are much quieter at New Temple. Membership has dropped. Attendance is sparse compared to the early '70s. John Ford has an idea that would surely fill the pews, at least for a night. Have Aretha Franklin come back and reminisce about the time she lit that church up. That would be truly amazing. […]
Franklin's refocus on gospel intertwined with early 1970's cultural discourse. For someone growing up in C. L. Franklin's family, the black consciousness movement of that era was not a jolt. […]

Q: Flask-SQLAlchemy join Hello I have a problem with join at flask-sqlalchemy. I am a beginner at database and flask.
These are my classes:
class Shopping(db.Model):
    __tablename__ = 'shoppings'
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    product_name = db.Column(db.String(30), index=True, unique=False)
    price=db.Column(db.Float(10), index=True)
    date=db.Column(db.Date())
    s_type_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('shopping_types.id'))
    def __repr__(self):
        return 'Alisveris yeri :{0}  Tutar :{1}  Tarih:      {2}'.format(self.product_name,self.price,self.date)

    def __list__(self):
        return [self.product_name,self.price,self.date]

class Shopping_Type(db.Model):
    __tablename__='shopping_types'
    id=db.Column(db.Integer,primary_key=True)
    type_name=db.Column(db.String(30), index=True, unique=True)
    types = db.relationship('Shopping', backref = 'shopping_types', lazy = 'dynamic')
    def __repr__(self):

        return '{0}'.format(self.type_name)

when I try on python terminal and run:
select shoppings.product_name ,shoppings.price, shoppings.date, shopping_types.type_name from shoppings join shopping_types ON shoppings.s_type_id=shopping_types.id

query
I get what I want but when I run flask-sqlalchemy command:
rslt=db.session.query(spng).join(st)
spng:Shopping(class)
st:Shopping_Type(class)

I get only Shopping data.
I want to get Shopping + Shopping_Type data.
Thank you.

A: rslt = db.session.query(spng, st).join(st)

The result would be an enumerable of tuples of (Shopping, Shopping_Type)

A: rslt = db.session.query(spng, st).filter(spng.s_type_id == st.id).all()

for x, y in rslt:
    print("Product ID: {} Product Name: {} Sopping Type: {}".format(x.id, x.product_name, y.tye_name))

type(rslt) is a tuple, contains elements as the number of tables joining.

At her husband's side throughout the American Revolution, Martha was a brave companion in wartime. The soldiers loved to see her at camp, and she had to manage Mount Vernon for long periods while George was off fighting or engaging in the politics of forming a new government.
Far from dowdy, Martha was a stylish woman who loved fine clothing, and set a standard for grace and sophistication as the first First Lady (although that title had not yet been coined). The Washingtons lived at the President's House in Philadelphia. They selected the site of the White House in the new city named for them, and oversaw its construction.
Martha embodies a time when the world was lit only by fire. Conversing with her provides a fascinating glimpse into the lives of women and men during the pivotal time of our nations' founding, and especially the lives of women as they negotiated a world in which they faced many challenges.

(Don't ask me) why do trusts have vesting dates? **
As set out in earlier posts, and with thanks to the Television Education Network, today's post considers the above mentioned topic in a 'vidcast' at the following link - https://youtu.be/rynjlLBormE
As usual, an edited transcript of the presentation for those that cannot (or choose not) to view it is below –
Arguably trust vesting as a concept is an area of the law where you can ask 4 different lawyers for a view and you will get 5 different answers as to where it actually came from.
The theory I enjoy the most and the one that probably resonates most closely to what is possibly the truth is that, historically, trusts or as known in early English law, 'uses' could last forever.
In other words, trusts were the same as the modern-day company. There was no ending date; a trust was a structure that could last in perpetuity.
The story goes that there were forms of death duties back in the early English law. What was happening was that wealthy families would arrange for an initial transfer of assets into a trust on death.
While, there would be tax payable on that initial transfer of assets into the trust (that is, the death duty) once the asset was inside the trust, it was effectively protected from tax forever.
In other words, from a tax perspective, it was sheltered because there would be no further transfer of the asset on later deaths and therefore no further revenue to the monarchy.
The allegation was that King Henry VIII (after it took the revenue authorities about a hundred years to work it out) eventually was unimpressed that the revenue was drying up.
The reason that tax collections were drying up was because all the wealthy families were putting their assets into trusts and then effectively just skipping the death tax and making it an elective tax for later generations.
The solution, as is often the case in the structuring area, was to create the revenue outcome by imposing a limit on the life span of trusts.
Hence, you'll see in many trust instruments, particularly earlier trust instruments, this idea of the 'life in being' of King Henry VIII or some other member of the royal family.
This is because the rule imposing the limit was set as the life in being as at the date of establishment of the trust plus 21 years. In most states (other than South Australia, which effectively has no statutory limit) the life in being approach has been replaced with a maximum period of 80 years.

Emphatic Enlist Drummer John Tempesta (Ex-White Zombie, Exodus) For Recording Of New Album "Another Life"
by Rob Rockitt
· Entertainment · Hard Rock Music · Hard Rock News · Music
Omaha, Nebraska based hard rockers, Emphatic have revealed more details about their new album "Another Life", which is scheduled for an October 22nd release through Epochal Artists Records/Capitol Music Group. The band have enlisted the help of drummer John Tempesta (Ex-White Zombie, Testament, Exodus) to lay down drum tracks for the group's sophomore effort. The album will be the first to feature new frontman Toryn Green, who was previously the singer of multi-platinum rock band Fuel and the touring vocalist for Finnish cello rock band Apocalyptica.
Produced by Emphatic guitarist Justin McCain and co-produced by Ryan Greene at Validus Recording Studios in Los Angeles, "Another Life" showcases Emphatic's newfound sense of maturity and creative firepower as they belt out a powerful dose of groundbreaking hard rock. Rejuvenated creatively, the band is now firing on all cylinders with a line-up that matches the intensity of their songs. "Another Life" is filled with gigantic hooks, powerful melodies and is an inspiring triumph over adversity. The band's lyric video for their debut single "Remember Me" can be seen online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifoxluKd_rg.
Emphatic are best known for their major label debut album "Damage", which produced the hit single "Bounce", and shot the album onto the Billboard Heatseekers charts at #9. The album was produced by Howard Benson (Three Days Grace, Halestorm), and featured A Perfect Circle's Josh Freese playing drums on the record. From there, the band went on to take part in the Carnival Of Madness Tour alongside hard rock heavyweights Theory of a Deadman, Alter Bridge, Black Stone Cherry, and Adelitas Way.

1808: Mutiny on Simon Fraser's expedition
Simon Fraser's expedition nearly dissolved into mutiny. It wasn't long before the voyageurs came to the conclusion that this route wasn't the best one after all. The river was so treacherous that their birchbark canoes were falling apart.
The voyageurs weren't pleased at the prospect of carrying everything on their backs and borrowing canoes from the Native tribes they encountered along the way.
As Fraser's expedition progressed down the river the Carrier and Secwapmec people warned him that the river he was following could not be navigated by canoe. Fraser, however, did not believe them.
If Fraser had listened to them, he would have learned that the best way to the coast was to follow Seton and Anderson Lakes from the junction of the Fraser River and Seton River, to the portage at Pemberton and then to follow the Lillooet and Harrison Rivers south to the coast. This route was the one that the Stat'imc had used to trade with coastal Ucwalmicw for centuries.
But Simon Fraser pressed on to a village called Camchin, at the confluence of two great rivers. This was the site of the future gold rush town of Lytton.
Below is the second page from my graphic novel that I'm working on, Cartoon Introduction to the Fraser River Gold Rush.

Famous Canadian Canoe Historian – Tappan Adney
Tappan Adney (1868-1950) is widely recognized as one of the foremost canoe historians. At a time when traditional canoe building was fast disappearing, it is surprising to learn that many museums were uninterested. Perhaps it is because they didn't recognize that there were so many variations of canoes.
There were canoes of varying shapes and sizes; formed to handle the local conditions of the rivers and oceans. Adney's passion for canoes and canoe construction was clearly evident in his intricate detailed drawings and later his canoe models. Using precise measurements, Adney was able to recreate extinct canoes with virtually the same materials and techniques as was originally used.

Stillaguamish River Canoe
Watch how a flat-bottom shovel-nosed canoe is carved from a 300-year-old cedar log:
For over a century, seven old-growth cedar logs lay buried under a logging road in the Stillaguamish River watershed until 2009 when they were finally unearthed. The logs were the remains of 300 year old trees that had once stood tall near the Stillaguamish River in Washington State.
The logs represented a signficant cultural gift to the Stillaguamish Tribe who had not received recognition or reserve lands until 1976.
As they prepared to carve a dugout canoe from one of these fallen trees, had to do a lot of research beforehand. This was the first canoe to be carved in their area in over a hundred years. The chief carver was Lummi artist Felix Solomon.
This canoe is typical of the traditional canoe used by the Coast Salish in the Puget Sound. Its flat bottom, wide body and blunt bow and stern allows it carry big loads and float easily in rough waters.

← REPORT FROM MIGRATION MONITORING ASSOCIATION: What did Woman Experience During Period of Curfews?
The Council of Higher Education has canceled the gender equality project that it was conducting in the universities. Council Chair Saraç has said the project "is not suitable with social values".


This is a great summer movie and I think this matches and in some ways exceeds the recent Bond films. But let's not get too serious here. This is a popcorn film of the highest order. We have learned to expect no less from that crazy guy Cruise.
I was unprepared for how really good this movie is.
Jack Reacher is another solid action film from Tom Cruise. It is well-written, tightly paced, and it has excellent photography and editing. Night-time photography is extremely well done with bright colors and clarity throughout.
Great popcorn movie. Really enjoyed it. Terrific visuals, interesting variations on familiar themes.
What a big, fun, goofy, and exciting film this is!
This movie expands upon the dazzling realistic-future-world special effects of Spielberg's A.I. but wastes astonishing technical and artistic virtuosity on a hackneyed, uninvolving murder mystery.
OK, let me put my cards on the table: 1. Sometimes I like big, dumb action movies. 2. I like Tom Cruise (War of the Worlds). 3. I don't watch Oprah. That said, I enjoyed Mission Impossible III a great deal. I'd put it right up there with other big, dumb action movies I actually enjoy, films like Independence Day and Armageddon.
This movie gave me nightmares.
COLLATERAL is a smashing example of how to take a standard story line and turn it into a fresh, provocative, exciting, and even at times, beautiful tale of violence and self-revelation.


The future of Warner Bros. Pictures' superhero universe is a bit more stable now that both Aquaman and Wonder Woman have met expectations critically and commercially, making the outlook a little brighter for some of the other projects currently in development. Among those films is Birds of Prey, a live-action feature that will bring back Suicide Squad actress Margot Robbie as the deranged Harley Quinn, focusing on a group of female heroes and villains from the DC Comics universe.
The first teaser for Birds of Prey — which is also being titled Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) in some of its marketing — was released January 28, and introduces the primary cast members for the film and how their characters will appear in the project.
Along with Robbie as Harley Quinn (who appears prominently in the teaser), the film's cast includes Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Huntress, Jurnee Smollett-Bell as Black Canary, Ella Jay Basco as Cassandra Cain (a.k.a. Batgirl), Ewan McGregor as the villain Black Mask, and Rosie Perez as Renee Montoya. Supporting cast members include Ali Wong (Fresh Off the Boat), Robert Catrini (American Crime Story), Chris Messina (Sharp Objects), Steven Williams (It), and Derek Wilson (Preacher).
Back in April 2018, little-known filmmaker Cathy Yan was hired to helm the film, which is expected to be an "R"-rated feature. Yan previously directed 2017's Dead Pigs, a small-budget drama that won the World Cinema Dramatic Award For Ensemble Acting at the Sundance Film Festival. Yan also wrote and directed several short films, and was a Wall Street Journal reporter.
Yan is now the second female filmmaker in Warner Bros. Pictures' superhero universe after Patty Jenkins helmed Wonder Woman, and she is the first Asian female director to helm a mainstream superhero movie. Robbie, who is also one of the producers on the film, reportedly made a strong push to bring in a female director on the project.
Yan will be directing the film from a script penned by Christina Hodson, the screenwriter on the Transformers spinoff film Bumblebee and the upcoming Batgirl movie.
Robbie's portrayal of Quinn is expected to make a return in the upcoming Suicide Squad sequel, and two more films featuring the character — a Gotham City Sirens film and a project with Harley Quinn and Jared Leto's Joker — have been announced, but appear to have been put on the back-burner by the studio.
Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is currently scheduled to hit theaters February 7, 2020.
Disney has sky-high expectations for its Star Wars universe, with plenty of plans for the franchise on the big screen and television over the next few years. Here are all the upcoming movies and TV shows, both rumored and confirmed.


Japanese SMEs shouldn't limit themselves to domestic markets any longer.
Despite being one of Asia's most mature economies, Japan still has room to grow – particularly in international exports.
Small businesses can use e-commerce and regional manufacturing to improve margins and grow on both domestic and international fronts.
Japanese SMEs can expand into components, repairs, and other services to keep their profits stable.
Already flourishing as one of Asia's most mature economies, Japan continues to prove its mettle with strong trade growth driven by its international exports. To keep up with the volume, DHL Express Japan made its largest investment for the company in the country since 1972 – building a brand-new facility for its Tokyo Gateway, more than doubling its previous size and allowing it to process more than 12,000 parcels hourly.
Many Japanese SMEs will already be familiar with selling online – after all, around 80% of Japanese consumers shop online, predominantly from local merchants. SMEs can apply their existing skills with Amazon, Rakuten and other marketplaces to list their products overseas – allowing them to test demand in a fast and relatively inexpensive way.
Regional manufacturing is increasingly attractive from a cost and quality perspective, allowing Japanese SMEs to support rapid domestic and international sales growth without prohibitive capital costs.
2. Manufacture offshore, ship in direct.
Although "Made in Japan" still commands a reputation for world-class quality, a growing number of businesses are offshoring their operations to China, South-East Asia, and other parts of Asia Pacific. By reducing the cost per product made, regional manufacturing broadens the number of overseas markets which Japanese SMEs can explore and sell to at a profit, whether through e-commerce or more traditional means. It also allows them to sell at higher margins to local Japanese customers – as long as they can ensure fast and reliable imports into Japan.
Sometimes the whole isn't greater than the sum of its parts. Japanese SMEs may find new and highly lucrative markets for the components of their existing products, particularly when dealing in complex goods like consumer electronics which require ongoing repairs and maintenance. These can supplement or even overtake sales of the SME's core products.

Hey, Congress: Take Back Your War Powers
If you want to stop Donald Trump from making unilateral decisions regarding war and peace, then stop letting all presidents make unilateral decisions about war and peace. It's really quite simple. Trump can abruptly pull back U.S. troops from northern Syria because Congress, having abdicated its foreign policy responsibilities long ago, has no leverage to stop him.
When Congress passed the War Powers Resolution as the Vietnam War was winding down, it gave the president the power to send troops abroad for 60 days in response to any "national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces." If the president failed to gain congressional support for the deployment, he would have another 30 days to pull back troops.
Congress is the institution vested with the power to declare wars, debate where we send troops and decide which conflicts will be funded. Presidents have been ignoring this arrangement, abusing authorizations for the use of military force (AUMFs) and imbuing themselves with the power to engage in conflicts wherever they like, without any coherent endgame and without any buy-in from Congress.
Congress, in turn, has shown no interest in genuinely challenging executive power. Its members are far more concerned with political self-preservation. Ignoring abuse shields them from tough choices and ensuing criticism — even as they use war as a partisan cudgel.
Even if you don't believe all these conflicts rise to an Article I declaration — and I don't — the more accountability there is in foreign entanglements the better. Right now, we have little genuine debate or consensus building — in a nation that already exhibits exceptionally little interest in foreign policy — regarding the deployment of our troops, almost always in perpetuity, around the world.
It's a bipartisan problem. Barack Obama, whose political star rose due to his opposition to the Iraq War, was perhaps our worst offender, circumventing Congress and relying on a decade-old AUMF, which he invoked 19 times during his presidency, to justify a halfhearted intervention against ISIS (not al-Qaida) in Syria (not Afghanistan.)
Trump could bomb Iran tomorrow, use Obama's reasoning and have a far stronger legal defense for his actions.
It was also Obama who joined Europeans in the failed intervention in Libya, where he worked under NATO goals rather than U.S. law. There was hardly a peep from Democrats fretting over the corrosion of the Constitution.
Republicans were also given ample chance to sign off on Syrian intervention in 2013 when Obama, fully aware of congressional aversion to accountability, asked for a new AUMF to get out of bombing Assad. It would have been a great time for senators to dictate long-term goals in Syria. It's not too late. If they believe Trump's strategy is wrong, they can still force his hand by explaining the mission with a new AUMF. Let's see if voters agree.
Right now, I imagine only a sliver of Americans fully understand the situation in Syria. I'm definitely not one of them. Yes, Trump's haphazard abandonment of Syrian Kurds and empowering of Turkey seems like a bad idea for several reasons. I'm hawkish about destroying the remnants of JV-team ISIS and sympathetic toward the idea of protecting civilians from Assad's chemical attacks and shielding the Kurds from Turkish aggression. But now we're talking about an open-ended military commitment that keeps evolving. And anyone who claims to know with any certitude how these events will shake out is lying to you.
The only thing we can be certain of is that there few good options in the Syria mess, and that includes our allies. Although the Kurds have endured much as a people and deserve our support, the Kurdish PKK, our allies in northern Syria, aren't chaste freedom fighters but Maoists with ties to terrorist organizations.
In other words, we face few good options mired in perhaps the most volatile situation in the world. Under these conditions, our foreign policy shouldn't be driven by the arbitrary "great and unmatched wisdom" of any single person. This brand of unilateral power was problematic when the well-mannered Obama sold out Syria to coddle the Iranian terror state, and it's problematic when an impulsive Trump acquiesces to the wishes of Erdogan. (But Washington seems to freak out only when the word "withdrawal" is mentioned.)
Whoever's president, the founders clearly foresaw Congress taking far more responsibility for conflicts we enter. So, who knows? Maybe next intervention it will.
