I'm an offer holder for English at Cambridge, expected to begin my university degree in October of this year. This is a real post, not a made up story. Please be sincere and honest in your response and refrain from making derogatory remarks.
Like most people, it's been my dream to study there and I could hardly grasp the enormity of the decision when I was accepted. I come from a non-traditional background, growing up in a ****hole in one of the poorest areas of the country, the kind where the majority of the girls in my year group were pregnant mothers in their teens. Most boys would have progressed to the construction industry or some such. When I walk out of my home- where I live on a Council Estate (the majority of the houses/flats here are council homes)- I see drug dealers, unruly young people creating trouble for others in the area, mass unemployment... I couldn't possibly describe to you how much I absolutely want to get out of this place.
The GCSE pass rate at my school was the highest ever- at... 40% and the teachers were mostly crap, probably because they knew most of the students in the class were 'no hopers'. But that's another story. You see, what I'm trying to say is that I've had to work incredibly hard to get to where I am. I've had to overcome an enormous amount of psychological barriers and internal conflict to progress to A levels and have the confidence to apply to the best universities. Over the years, I've become progressively confident and self-motivated but the internal battle remains. I know the academic pressure at Cambridge is going to be incredibly tough, but will I be able to handle it? What is the work load like? As you can appreciate, I've had an unusual upbringing compared to most people who are probably attending Cambridge and desperately don't want to make the wrong university choice. I have offers from London Universities to read English, would I be better off there?
Would the stress of Cambridge be too much for me?
What is wrong with my car, head gasket ?
Cardiff Sixth Form HONEST OPINIONS?!!
The work load isn't huge, just as long as you understand it (sadly, I do not).
But the fact you've gotten into Cambridge from the school you described means you're probably smarter than a lot of the people who come from public school etc.
If you're gonna go to university, you may as well go to Cambridge.
If you're used to working hard without much input from teachers, then you'll be fine, as that's essentially what you'll be doing at Cambridge too. Most people find it tough but doable, so choose based on what course you like rather than whether you'll be able to cope with it.
You might even be better prepared than other people as you've spent your life working independently to get where you are now (not that those people haven't worked hard either, but you're certainly not going to be worse off).
I have an offer for this october this year and although I went to a good school for my A-Levels for my GCSE's I did not I had to work hard by myself to get to this stage.
I would never miss the opportunity, if you came this far, imagine the opportunities this will open up for you!! Go for it , dont back down the best you can do is grab every chance and try your hardest. Im sure that if you got an offer they think you have the potential to do excellently, have more faith in yourself!!
Please take the offer, its the opportunity of a lifetime and you have worked for it!!
The academic pressure will be tough, but you know yourself what you can handle, and it sounds like it's been tough so far, so you may find that the pressure at Cambridge is less than you expect now, and you end up thoroughly enjoying every minute. If you've learnt to push pressure away when it gets too much, give yourself a break, and just enjoy what you're studying as much as you can, there's no reason why the pressure should be too much. And I'm guessing you know how to do that already. Plus, you'll be surrounded by people who can empathise with whatever you end up going through academically, which may help lighten the burden. It would be a waste if you let fear of too much pressure deter you from going to Cambridge. (My school was very similar to yours, s'hole was my favourite word to describe it. ) If it was your dream to go there, seriously don't be intimidated by the reality of going there, just go for it, look after your mind when you're there, and love the experience.
You've clearly worked extremely hard for a lot of your life, you can finally reap your rewards and go to one of the best Universities on the globe. Theres no question to it! You will kick yourself if you dont go! Go and make something of yourself and get out of where you live. You can be the start of a new generation for your family, really well done for working so hard to get where you're at.
You still sound like you have a kneejerk tabloid-fuelled hate of poor people even if you are one, you'll fit in just fine.
Until you yourself live in places where its poverty ridden you will have no idea what its like. There is nothing wrong in being ambitious to leave 'poverty' and earn a good wage.
You have come this far you'll work the rest out fine!
This - as long as you're willing to put in the hard graft and have faith in yourself, you'll be fine. They wouldn't have made you an offer if they didn't think you were capable of studying at Cambridge!

I think you will do really well at Cambridge as you have not been spoonfed and should be capable of doing the work necessary at Cambridge. There is a lot of work to do at Cambridge but as the lecturers and supervisors are world class you should have no problem. Go for it and don't worry!
Hi there. I feel like I can empathise with your situation a little, although it sounds like you've had it much worse than me. I always felt my school ought to have had the motto, "Achieve in spite of your education not because of it." I obviously can't predict how you'll feel when you get to Cambridge, but there is no reason why what you've been through should prevent you from doing well. It sounds obvious, but if they let you in, they saw potential in you and they think you can do it. And it sounds like a cliché, but your upbringing and education will have made you stronger. You might even find you thrive. You won't take anything for granted, you'll be used to working hard and doing things for yourself, you won't expect anything to be given to you or made obvious... you've done so well to get an offer and I would definitely, definitely advise you to take it!
If you've got any other questions or just want to chat, feel free to PM me.
...and I'm sure you will! Make the most of the summer after A Levels though - chances are you won't be sent that much work.
Ohh Janet O'Sullivan interviewed me she is amazing I loved her, and I've heard that John Spencer is awesome so I'm really excited now!!!
How are you finding the law course?
If you're not under pressure at uni, you're not doing yourself justice. They wouldn't have let you in if you weren't up to it - go to Cambridge.
Erm...hard to say, really. It's all interesting stuff but I'm going back over my notes now to revise and I'm finding there's loads of background detail that I doubt I'm going to need for the exam.
Having said that, it feels like hard work but I don't think it's impossible - I'm not working as productively as I could (I'm on TSR for starters!) so I should still be able to get sorted by the time my exams come around at the end of May. My DoS is brilliant for keeping an eye out for articles - he's writing a new book on tort law at the moment and he's sending us loads of current affairs stuff in case it comes up in the exam. He's so cool.
TSR Scientists: How to get rid of crumples in water bottle?


Abstract: Channel loss seems to be the most severe limitation to the application long distance quantum key distribution in practice. The idea of twin-field quantum key distribution can improve the key rate from the linear scale of channel loss in the traditional decoy-state method to the square root scale of the channel transmittance. However, the technical demanding is rather tough because it requests high alignment precision in single-photon interference. Here we demonstrate the real-optical-fiber experimental results of twin-field quantum key distribution through the sending-or-not-sending protocol, which is fault tolerant to large misalignment error. In the experiment, we use the phase locking technology developed in the time and frequency metrology, to make sure the wavelengths of Alice's and Bob's source are locked to each other and locked to an ultra-stable cavity. The phase reference is then read out with a phase reference pulse. Further with a single photon detector with high detection rate, we obtain the key rates under 4 different distances, 0km, 50 km, 100km and 150km, Especially, the obtained secure key rate at 150 km is higher than that of the measurement device independent QKD.

On the Job - US Air Force PJs
Check out this dokumentation from a PJ exercise mission (rescue a down pilot behind enemy lines). Enjoy watching.
Part 1 – Edited by Glenn Garthwaite. Produced by Sean Bergin. Pararescuemen (AFSC 1T2X1) are United States Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) and Air Combat Command (ACC) operatives tasked with recovery and medical treatment of personnel in humanitarian and combat environments. They are the only members of the DoD specifically organized, trained and equipped to conduct personnel recovery operations in hostile or denied areas as a primary mission. Also known as "PJs" (Pararescue Jumpers), these special operations units are also used to support NASA missions and have been used to recover astronauts after water landings. They are attached to other SOF teams from all branches to conduct other operations as appropriate. Of the 22 enlisted Air Force Cross recipients, 12 are Pararescuemen. They wear the maroon beret as a symbol of their elite status, and to symbolize the blood shed by past PJs, as well as the blood current PJs are willing to shed to save lives. Part of the little-known Air Force Special Tactics community and long an enlisted preserve, the Pararescue service began commissioning Combat Rescue Officers early in the 21st century.

K & K Tire & Auto Center provides Engine Diagnostics services to Foley, MN, Saint Cloud, MN, Milaca, MN, and other surrounding areas.
The Basics Behind Engine Diagnostics Services at K & K Tire & Auto Center
The OBD System, or On-Board Diagnostics System, was originally installed to monitor vehicle emissions, but it also detects problems within the engine. Both OBD I and OBD II systems exist, with OBD II systems becoming the standard in vehicles manufactured after 1996. The OBD is connected to the engine control unit (ECU), which helps your engine run efficiently while keeping emissions low. The OBD can identify and warn the driver of engine malfunction by sending error notifications to the ECU system. The ECU is in charge of several engine processes, including the mixture of air and fuel, emissions, and engine timing. The ECU uses sensors to monitor them or make adjustments. If the ECU detects malfunctions, it triggers the "check engine" light on the dashboard. The OBD system then records the code pertaining to the problem. The code can be accessed by a trained technician through engine diagnostic equipment in order to properly diagnose the issue.
Why Should You Have Engine Diagnostics Services Performed at K & K Tire & Auto Center?
Engine diagnostics serve to keep your engine running efficiently. The OBD system is capable of detecting malfunctions before they lower engine performance or cause severe damage. Because of the mandatory OBD system, your automobile is capable of monitoring and diagnosing its own performance. You should have engine diagnostics performed when the "check engine" light comes on. Engine diagnostics will help detect problems early so that minor problems never become major problems. Engine diagnostics also help keep emissions low, and if your engine is malfunctioning, your vehicle might not pass an emissions test. When your "check engine" light turns on, it is time for you to contact us for an engine diagnostics service. Our experienced staff will work hard to get your engine working again properly in no time.
We proudly service the Engine Diagnostics needs of customers in Foley, MN, Saint Cloud, MN, Milaca, MN, and surrounding areas.

MAPPED OUT This top-down view of the mouse brain shows spindly connections made by neurons in distinct brain regions (marked by different colors).
Two new maps illustrate human and mouse brains in sharp relief, offering insights into how brains are built and operate. The studies, led by scientists at the Allen Institute for Brain Science in Seattle and published April 2 in Nature, join other recent large-scale descriptions of the brain (SN Online: 3/27/14; 2/17/14).

// Earley-like parser for macros.

/* This is an Earley-like parser, without support for in-grammar nonterminals,
only by calling out to the main rust parser for named nonterminals (which it
commits to fully when it hits one in a grammar). This means that there are no
completer or predictor rules, and therefore no need to store one column per
token: instead, there's a set of current Earley items and a set of next
ones. Instead of NTs, we have a special case for Kleene star. The big-O, in
pathological cases, is worse than traditional Earley parsing, but it's an
easier fit for Macro-by-Example-style rules, and I think the overhead is
lower. (In order to prevent the pathological case, we'd need to lazily
construct the resulting `NamedMatch`es at the very end. It'd be a pain,
and require more memory to keep around old items, but it would also save
overhead)*/

/* Quick intro to how the parser works:

A 'position' is a dot in the middle of a matcher, usually represented as a
dot. For example `· a $( a )* a b` is a position, as is `a $( · a )* a b`.

The parser walks through the input a character at a time, maintaining a list
of items consistent with the current position in the input string: `cur_eis`.

As it processes them, it fills up `eof_eis` with items that would be valid if
the macro invocation is now over, `bb_eis` with items that are waiting on
a Rust nonterminal like `$e:expr`, and `next_eis` with items that are waiting
on the a particular token. Most of the logic concerns moving the · through the
repetitions indicated by Kleene stars. It only advances or calls out to the
real Rust parser when no `cur_eis` items remain

Example: Start parsing `a a a a b` against [· a $( a )* a b].

Remaining input: `a a a a b`
next_eis: [· a $( a )* a b]

- - - Advance over an `a`. - - -

Remaining input: `a a a b`
cur: [a · $( a )* a b]
Descend/Skip (first item).
next: [a $( · a )* a b]  [a $( a )* · a b].

- - - Advance over an `a`. - - -

Remaining input: `a a b`
cur: [a $( a · )* a b]  next: [a $( a )* a · b]
Finish/Repeat (first item)
next: [a $( a )* · a b]  [a $( · a )* a b]  [a $( a )* a · b]

- - - Advance over an `a`. - - - (this looks exactly like the last step)

Remaining input: `a b`
cur: [a $( a · )* a b]  next: [a $( a )* a · b]
Finish/Repeat (first item)
next: [a $( a )* · a b]  [a $( · a )* a b]  [a $( a )* a · b]

- - - Advance over an `a`. - - - (this looks exactly like the last step)

Remaining input: `b`
cur: [a $( a · )* a b]  next: [a $( a )* a · b]
Finish/Repeat (first item)
next: [a $( a )* · a b]  [a $( · a )* a b]

- - - Advance over a `b`. - - -

Remaining input: ``
eof: [a $( a )* a b ·]

Sun shines on The Rowland Singers Summer Fair and Dog Show
Sunny skies contributed to a successful Summer Fair and Dog Show at Clapham and Patching Village Hall and field last Saturday.
Updated Tuesday, 26th June 2018, 9:54 am
Rowland Singers
Spokeswoman Jan Summers said: "The event was packed full of entertainment for youngsters and adults alike. There were over 20 stalls selling a wide range of handcrafted goods, tombola, Grand Raffle, and many more.
"The Dog Show, organised by Paws, Play and Stay, was a big hit with local dog owners who turned out in force to show off their canine friends in all shapes and sizes.
"The organisers would like to take this opportunity to thank all the visitors, stall holders, supporters of the Dog Show, all the food and drink outlets, and the entertainment provided for the children for their support in making this a special family day out.
"The Rowland Singers Summer Concerts will be held on 19th July at Emmanuel URC St Michael's Road, Worthing and on 20th July at St Symphorian's Church Durrington. For further information visit www.rowlandsingers.co.uk."

When the weather begins to grow warm you might hesitate to wear some of your crocheted accessories. The answer? Crochet lacier projects and you won't have to sacrifice your style. This cool summer cowl has an antique lace look, hence the French name for "old-fashioned". But contrary to some belief, lacy doesn't have to mean more difficult. The stitch pattern is fairly simple, and with a lovely variegated yarn, will present just the right amount of character. Wear it with any summer outfit for the perfect look!

I really enjoyed the way this cowl pattern turned out. Let me know what you think –and if you run into any snags– in the comments below!

Thanks, and I hope it works out for you!
could you check round 3, not sure if I am having a senior blond moment. Gorgeous pattern, winter in my part of the world doesn't get cold very much but this is perfect for those days when there is a bit of chill in the air.
What exactly are you having difficulty with?
I love this pattern, but wondered what changes I would need to make to use a thinner yarn(between a sport weight and a "regular" #3 weight.) I love the lacy texture and think it would show off this gorgeous yarn which I just bought! How long is the initial chain?
Just so you know, the yarn I used was Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable in Cappuccino. I personally consider it closer to a sport yarn but the label says medium weight. I would first recommend trying a swatch with the yarn you want to use and check it against the gauge in the pattern. I don't normally measure the length of the chain before I work the rest so I am afraid the only length I can give you is the Finished Size (32 inches in circumference). Let me know how it works out for you!
This light and airy pattern is so pretty.
Should that last instruction be "skip next ch-3 space"?
No, it's "skip next dc". Rather than saying "skip next dc and ch-3 space", saying "skip next dc, work into next dc" assumes you are going to skip the next ch-3 because it is before the "next dc" the pattern indicates. Hope this helps!
I really do like this, and agree with previous comment – "this might be the one"!
I think I'd rather make it as a straight scarf rather than a cowl. Think that would be a problem? Can I not just follow along with pattern – without joining into a circle?
This is lacy without looking "high falootin' " and may try this with a silk yarn I have and that is calling me to be made into something pretty!
The pattern will change slightly, mostly in the beginning and ending of each row. You will need to chain 113 to accommodate for the first sc. But it shouldn't be too hard. I'd love to see it in silk! Hope it works out for you!
It may be a while before I do this…am pushing hard to finish a CalKing Afghan for my bed (using mostly Sophie's Universe) – and since this has been WIP for a while, I really want it DONE!
But I will try to remember to send pic if I get it done..
I know what you mean, I've got a WIP afghan for MY bed that is taking me forever! 🙂 Too much to crochet! Good luck, though!
Okay, have been keep up with the comments and now I wonder: is the pattern above all corrected?
If so, I'll use that and not the original which I copied to my computer files.
Since I have not yet started mine (though time is getting closer as I'm itching to do it!) I want to make sure I work with totally corrected pattern – before I start.
I also want to thank you for being so quick in responding to queries about this pattern!
This seems to be a very popular scarf – good for you! it IS beautiful!
I just realized that it should be "skip next sc". I will correct that! Does this help you?
Hello everyone! I realize that I made a small error on Round 3 and have since corrected it. Sorry for the inconvenience. I hope it works out for you now!
Amy, at the end of Round 2, it says to sl st in the 3rd chain of the 6, then to chain 1, and sc in the first chain. I take it that is the next chain after the sc. Then it says skip the next chain 3 space which will be the sc,chain3,sc and then to dc,ch1,dc,chn1,dc, in next chain 3 space. That will be the chain 3 space before the dc.
Should it read skip the next sc and work the dc in the sc,chn3,sc space, skip chain 3 and work sc,chn3,sc in the dc?
The first ch-3 space you are to skip in Round 3 is referring to the leftover 3 chs from the previous rows ch-6 (which represents a dc and ch-3). So you are working the first sc in the same ch as you sl st to end Round 2. The (dc, ch 1, dc, ch 1, dc) belongs in the ch-3 between the two sc, and the (sc, ch 3, sc) belongs in the dc. Does this clarify?
I began this pattern on the 27th. I see that you corrected the pattern and was happy to know that I was not going crazy, as I am a pretty accomplished crocheter. I would like to make it a bit longer but do not know how to extend the pattern. I think I will keep this scarf for myself as I usually give everything away. Creating the scarf in one long piece and then sewing it together would be a good idea. I am using Caron Simply Soft in Strawberry and an I hook. So far so good still using the old pattern. I will copy the new pattern and compare the corrections. Beautiful lacy loopy scarf! Thanks for sharing with us.
If you want to extend the scarf just add a few more multiples. The stitch pattern is a multiple of 7, plus 1 for base chain if you are not going to crochet in the round. Good luck!
Are you going to re-write the pattern for Round 3?
I have made a couple of minor changes. Hope the bugs are worked out now!
Your clarified pattern helped tremendously. I still worked the (sc, chain 3,sc) in the last chain 3 space and it all came together, made sense and looked good. It helped to know to sc in the chain as the first sc, chain 3 and sl st in that same sc. Thank you so much. I would like to use the lighter, airy yarn like yours looks like. What yarn did you use? I used Caron, and it wasn't light like yours was. I also need for it to be a bit longer. Your scarf looks so much lacier.
I'm happy it worked out for you, Linda! I used Red Heart's Boutique Unforgettable in Cappuccino. It is still classified as medium weight yarn but it's finer. Lion Brand's Amazing is another like it but a little rougher because of the wool content.
The pattern is corrected. I hope that there are no more bugs in it now. But you can let me know if there is anything I might have missed.
Thank you, Amy, for posting what yarn you used. After the correction, mine whipped up in no time, but your's still looked so much better, so I'm changing yarns, making it bigger and trying it again. Follow the corrected pattern, Carol D. It's fine. I had to tear mine out over and over before, so I understand where you are coming from. Go for it!
No problem, Linda. Glad I could help!
Thanks, Amy – AND Linda for words of encouragement. Close to joining on my afghan (and I'm shaking in my boots thinking about it! Just having all this massive object on my lap will be a challenge – especially since temps have been high and hot in last few days!
I may start this now – while I ponder just what join I'm going to do. Have some larger areas to fill on sides (the "drop" on the bed), so am considering using Celtic Lace for that…looks beautiful and may just fill the bill!
Thanks all for the encouragement…I LOVE this site,..and Amy is just wonderful about replying – and FAST!
Awesome! I'll let you all know if when this gets done…I wound some of my Malabrigo Silky Merino and am ready to go….I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE working with this yarn…not cheap for sure – but worth every cent.
Thanks for sharing your ideas! Good luck!
Hi. Round 3 is very clear but I'm confused where it says rounds 4-6 repeat rounds 2 and 3. How can I do 3 rows by repeating 2 rows? Or do I do row 2, row 3 and then row 2 again and finish off?
Yes, for rows 4-6 you do row 2, then row 3, and then lastly row 2 to finish.
Pretty! And it was so quick! I uses Patons sequin lace. Simple and pretty. Thank you!

'National Development Plan must be relevant at all times'
Dr Nii Moi Thompson, the Director-General of the National Development Planning Commission (NDPC) has observed that the proposed 40-year development plan envisaged by the Commission should at all times be intrinsically relevant to the nation.
He said the document must also transcend all regimes.
Dr Thompson was speaking at the Sixth of the Regional Consultative forums on the Long-Term National Development Plan, held in Ho, on Wednesday.
He said the plan should inform the fundamental structure of Ghana's development, as in the case of South-Korea, like Ghana in 1960, had the same economic growth indices, but currently several steps ahead, indeed a benefactor.
Dr Thompson said one of the main differences between South-Korea and Ghana was that the many regime changes there did not result in any significant changes in the route to attain their set developmental goals.
He said besides the regional consultations, the NDPC would discuss thoroughly the risks posed to such plans, such as corruption, poor contract management, late and non-release of funds and weak monetary evaluation systems among others.
Dr Thompson mentioned infrastructure backup as the "spine of Ghana's long term development plan".
He listed law enforcement, civil registration, and land laws as other crucial components to spur planning.
Dr Thompson said he was hopeful that the regional forums and others to follow would raise enough questions to engender healthy discussions on the issue.
Ms Helen Ntoso, the Volta Regional Minister, observed that a long-term national development plan for the nation, "offers a long-term perspective by defining a desired destination and identifying the roles the different sectors of society needed to play in reaching that goal".
Dr William Ahadzi, representing the National Democratic Congress (NDC), said the drive towards a long-term national development plan was to enable Ghana to move from the current lower middle level income status higher, through a stable macro-economic environment, modernised agriculture, effective decentralisation, and better social services, among others.
Mr Kwadwo Afari, representing the New Patriotic Party (NPP), said the plan should be definite on the role of the private sector.
Nr George Agulijam, representing the Peoples National Convention (PNC), expressed misgivings about the late start of the Ho programme, expected to tackle a serious problem such as a national development planning project, which should reflect time consciousness.
Dr Kwesi Botchway said the country was yearning for a long-term development plan.
Dr Edith Tetteh, the NDPC's Volta Regional representative, who chaired the opening ceremony, said the contributions had been insightful and should help shape up national planning.

Would you offer your life in exchange for an existence in a land of fantasy? Perhaps you wouldn't, but she did. Pain sorrow and suffering, and among other vicissitudes of life, the world could fall apart at the mere cause of words.

George Hendrik Breitner (12 September 1857 – 5 June 1923) was a Dutch painter and photographer. An important figure in Amsterdam Impressionism, he is noted especially for his paintings of street scenes and harbours in a realistic style. He painted en plein air, and became interested in photography as a means of documenting street life and atmospheric effects – rainy weather in particular – as reference materials for his paintings.

Ever since Google Panda, some of the popular one way text link has gone down. Today, I just received an email from Linkvana that they are back with newer SEO tools.
What's important post Google Panda ?
Natural link profile – You need a natural linking profile. This means anchor text variance as well as deep linking. Make your text link as natural as possible, make variants of it.
Go Social – Google wants to see sites that are popular in social media and with social activity to verify that you're a useful, relevant site worth sharing. You can use your credits to buy followers, fans, likes, shares, re-tweets, diggs, stumbles, bookmarks and basically anything else social.
Quality Links – low level spammy links have been a thing of the past for a while now. You can get real quality links, created by real people. Safe and effective.
Contextual Backlinks – Google loves them and rewards your site for them.
One way link still works ! – Linkvana statistic shown Linknava networks of blog still working and over 5 millions pages index is still on. One way link still works and continue to work.
With $147 membership a month, you get to use the network (and non network domains).
Credits – 80 credits a month added to your account. Spend them however you want. Spend them on blog posts, articles, videos, social media, directories, profiles, facebook fans, top notch web content, etc… You get 80k credits a month to spend on whatever your business needs… for any domain, any URL, no restrictions here. AND the credits never expire, and they DO roll over from month to month. So no pressure to use the system every single month.
In summary, Linkvana is linkbuilding *hub* where you can build quality content (videos, articles, press releases, etc…) and distribute it to (youtube, vimeo, prnewswire, ezine articles, high PR networks, social, etc…) and tied together in a dashboard and all under the same roof.
Automation (beta) – you set your goal and the system do the rest for you, including article writing and submission.
Unlike most other network, Linkvana membership is limited, If number of member grows too large, they will STOP ACCEPTING NEW CUSTOMER. As of the time of writing, they still have slot.
Try Linkvana for FREE for 7 days and $147/month thereafter. Anytime cancellation and links build are permenant.
With the introduction of Google Panda update, people stop using automatic tools for linkbuilding and look for white hat method. Now here is good news for those people who are worried about Panda recovery as their favorite tool is not available with updated features according to Penguin and Panda policy so that you can attain top ranking quickly. Its good to read about Linkvana's new features especially natural linkbuilding.
The google panda is the new SEO tool. The google panda tool is used for a natural linking profile. According to panda algorithm the content of website original, they must have the best quality links no spamming allowed and the contextual back-linking. That is good to read about Linkvana's new feature about back-linking.
always glad me this for luminous reasons behind it, pleasant moments when i read your post for me!

Mr. Corman S1E2: "Don't Panic" Everything's Not OK
in Episodes
by Caemeron Crain August 6, 2021, 4:00 am
Courtesy of Apple TV+
The following contains spoilers for Mr. Corman S1E2, "Don't Panic"
Writing about Episode 1 (which I'm feeling the need to tell you I did before watching Episode 2, given that I know they're being released at the same time), I posited that Mr. Corman was fundamentally about millennial anxiety. S1E2, "Don't Panic," makes that all the clearer and more literal, as Josh suffers from an anxiety attack, or series of attacks, for its duration.
Apparently this is something new for him, and his anxiety is undiagnosed. Mine is as well, for what it's worth, but what I further find interesting is that I didn't necessarily intend the word in its clinical sense when I was writing on "Good Luck"—I was thinking about something I take to be far more general as characterizing at least my generation. But perhaps this is at least in continuity with such a technical use.
I'm reminded of the philosophy professor who chastised me for mentioning anxiety disorders in relation to Martin Heidegger, insisting his thought about existential angst was not the same as the psychological problem. I have never been able to decide if he was right about that.
Certainly there is an existential dimension to an anxiety attack, at least for me. And to conceive of it in Heideggerian type terms tracks—a crisis of being-in-the-world.
But then, with Heidegger this is related to his line about being-towards-death and a thought about moving from inauthentic to authentic being through a moment of vision and resoluteness, so perhaps that is different from the type of anxiety that Josh experiences (and which I have also experienced), which isn't so directly related to a confrontation with one's ownmost possibility of death. It's something much more general. Maybe it's Heidegger who's wrong with the whole business about resoluteness and authenticity. Is it even possible to believe in authenticity anymore?
When Victor tells Josh that everyone knows the world is f*cked so that can't be what's causing his anxiety, I think he's wrong. Maybe everyone feels it at a low level and is able to cope in one way or another, and it's Josh's coping that we see failing.
Perhaps I shouldn't speak for everyone. But what kind of monster is well adjusted to this world, flipping from news that the planet is dying to celebrity gossip, and left to try to find human connection by swiping right?
Is the service rep on the phone a human being? Josh asks, but it's not because the voice sounds robotic so much as because the responses he's receiving feel automated regardless.
What about the debt collector?
Sorry, he has a script. So he keeps calling Josh by his name even after he asks him to stop more than once. It's this kind of thing that can put one at risk of fritzing out—the intractability of the world and its idiocy. The way in which we're constantly bombarded by forces outside of our control and thus a fear of what could go wrong and what is going wrong at this very moment. Did I forget to lock my car? Should I check? Is that stupid paranoia? Am I now leaving my car unlocked?
Once again Mr. Corman is colored by a tinge of magical realism, as an asteroid plunges towards earth in the opening moments of S1E2. Don't panic. Josh doesn't know where his proverbial towel is as he calls in for a sub from the school parking lot and goes home.
He doesn't know what's wrong. He can't tell Victor what's wrong. Except he also does, because it is everything—every thought and decision or lack thereof thrown into question.
Will this end? Will he be OK? The anxiety feeds on itself and threatens to spiral out. But he is breathing. He yells at the woman on the phone who is trying to help with her suggestion, but ultimately takes it by going to the breathing workshop that closes S1E2.
There is a sort of cruel irony at play as he's asked to decide for himself what to pay, as Josh is forced to operate without bearings, and it's a lack of control—or lack of feeling control—that can provoke the panic. Does it make sense to say there is an ethical line that would be crossed by indicating how much people tend to pay? There is a realism to the scene nonetheless.
The group that exists now but will never exist again gives some credence to the thought that anxiety is pervasive in (post)modern life, and there is a paucity in the responses Chris (Jonno Roberts) gives to members of the circle. ("It's still sad this week.")
And yet ultimately, it seems to function. S1E2 breaks into a montage of breathing, with the rhythms of each individual coming to be punctuated by an accompanying musical score that creates a growing sense of calm, whereas the bulk of S1E2 was pervaded by a soundtrack that accentuated Mr. Corman's anxiety.
The sound design of Mr. Corman has been impressive through two episodes, but in particular in S1E2 the tolling bell sound keys us in to Josh's mental state. The sound is practically a character in the drama, and credit is due to Nathan Johnson and all of the others involved in its creation.
Sometimes sound in TV and film can feel merely auxiliary or ad hoc, but it is clearly intrinsic to Mr. Corman and not just because of Josh's history as a musician.
We do see him making music at the beginning of "Don't Panic" and that seems noteworthy. It's not giving him a respite it would seem so much as even perhaps priming him for his confrontation with existential dread. Not that it's the music's fault. Not that he shouldn't have played.
But his uneasiness is manifesting. Along comes an inability to enjoy, with its guilt, and an uncertainty that cuts to his being.
But the end of S1E2 brings a moment of calm in the connection with another. Josh doesn't breathe along until he's observed the sad woman beside him. He finds some peace through empathy and they console each other as they reach out to hold hands.
It's not that things are suddenly all better. But in this moment we are living through right now, you are not alone.
Don't panic.

Q: Cython: How to declare numpy.argwhere() I tried to Cythonize part of my code as following to hopefully gain some speed:
# cython: boundscheck=False
import numpy as np
cimport numpy as np
import time

cpdef object my_function(np.ndarray[np.double_t, ndim = 1] array_a,
                     np.ndarray[np.double_t, ndim = 1] array_b,
                     int n_rows,
                     int n_columns):
    cdef double minimum_of_neighbours, difference, change
    cdef int i
    cdef np.ndarray[np.int_t, ndim =1] locations
    locations = np.argwhere(array_a > 0)

    for i in locations:
        minimum_of_neighbours = min(array_a[i - n_columns], array_a[i+1], array_a[i + n_columns], array_a[i-1])
        if array_a[i] - minimum_of_neighbours < 0:
            difference = minimum_of_neighbours - array_a[i]
            change = min(difference, array_a[i] / 5.)
            array_a[i] += change
            array_b[i] -= change * 5.
        print time.time()

return array_a, array_b

I can compile it without an error but when I use the function I got this error:
from cythonized_code import my_function
import numpy as np

array_a = np.random.uniform(low=-100, high=100, size = 100).astype(np.double)
array_b = np.random.uniform(low=0, high=20, size = 100).astype(np.double)

a, b = my_function(array_a,array_b,5,20)

# which gives me this error:
# locations = np.argwhere(array_a > 0)
# ValueError: Buffer has wrong number of dimensions (expected 1, got 2)

Do I need to declare locations type here? The reason I wanted to declare it is that it has yellow colour in the annotated HTML file generated by compiling the code.

A: It's a good idea not to use the python-functionality locations[i], because it is too expensive: Python would create a full-fledged Python-integer* from the lowly c-integer (which is what is stored in the locations-numpy array), register it in the garbage collector, then cast it back to int, destroy the Python-object - quite an overhead.
To get a direct access to the lowly c-integers one needs to bind locations to a type. The normal course of action would be too look up, which properties locations has:
>>> locations.ndim
2
>>> locations.dtype
dtype('int64')

which translates to cdef np.ndarray[np.int64_t, ndim =2] locations.
However, this will (probably, can not check it right now) not be enough to get rid of Python-overhead because of a Cython-quirk:
for i in locations:
    ...

will not be interpreted as a raw-array access but will invoke the Python-machinery. See for example here.
So you will have to change it to:
for index in range(len(locations)):
      i=locations[index][0]

then Cython "understands", that you want the access to the raw c-int64 array.

*

*Actually, it is not completely true: In this case first an nd.array is created (e.g. locations[0] or locations[1]) and then __Pyx_PyInt_As_int (which is more or less an alias for [PyLong_AsLongAndOverflow][2]) is called, which creates a PyLongObject, from which C-int value is obtained before the temporary PyLongObject and nd.array are destructed.

Here we get lucky, because length-1 numpy-arrays can be converted to Python scalars. The code would not work if the second dimension of locations would be >1.

Home Publishers DC DC ROUND-UP: BATMAN: THREE JOKERS is too many Jokers
DC ROUND-UP: BATMAN: THREE JOKERS is too many Jokers
Cori McCreery
THIS WEEK: The long-promised Batman: Three Jokers series finally hits shelves, about four years after it was hinted at.
Note: the review below contain spoilers. If you want a quick, spoiler-free buy/pass recommendation on the comics in question, check out the bottom of the article for our final verdicts.
Batman: Three Jokers #1
Writer: Geoff Johns
Artist: Jason Fabok
Colorist: Brad Anderson
Letterer: Rob Leigh
Cover: Jason Fabok
When DC Rebirth came out four years ago, one of the big mysteries presented by it was the revelation that the Moebius Chair had given Batman that there were in fact three different Jokers. It was a thread that Geoff Johns had left for himself, and as such has gone mostly unreferenced and untouched for the ensuing four years while Johns has worked on other projects. What was once considered a big point of the new continuity is now relegated to a Black Label book with no actual impact on canon.
Had Johns been able to get this book out more timely, I feel like the impact would be felt more. Instead, it's coming out after several other Joker stories have been told, including one that's ongoing in the pages of the bat-books right now. As it is, this feels less important than Joker War, it feels less important than Death Metal, it feels like it's just there to get the story out there and nothing more.
There's an over-saturation of the Joker in media right now, and it's something that feels at a tipping point. How much is too much? Joker fans are always going to buy the things he's in, that's true, but fans like me? I'm absolutely sick of him. I didn't bother seeing the movie in theaters, and only watched it when I was on a plane. I'm elated that the villains in The Batman are going to be Riddler and Penguin. Joker War hits me as an overwrought mess, but hopefully, one that might be the character's swan song for a bit in the comics. So now just seems like the worst possible time for this series which hinges on too much Joker.
The art by Jason Fabok and Brad Anderson is stellar throughout the issue, with my absolute favorite bit of art in the book is in the opening pages, as we see Bruce's horribly scarred torso. This is a thing I will never tire of seeing in Batman books, as it emphasizes the humanity of the character. It's a visual reminder of the hells he puts his body through, and the pages that open this book even more so. We're given memories of the events that have led to several of these scars, from Bane to Catwoman, and finally to several inflicted by the Joker himself. It's a motif that we also see repeated with Barbara and her spinal injury, and Jason and his head trauma. But these memories also serve as an example of one of few setbacks with the art.
For a comic that hinges on three identifiable versions of the same character, that's not something that really comes through in most of the art. The only one of the Jokers that has an easily discernable look is the "Comedian". That one at least is identifiable by his beady eyes, while the only real difference between the "Clownish" and the "Criminal" are that the "Criminal" looks older. When you're not putting them right next to each other, this is next to indistinguishable. For Barbara's flashbacks it's easy to tell that her trauma came at the hands of the "Comedian", but for both Bruce and Jason, it's next to impossible to visibly tell which Jokers are responsible for their scars. The text names them, but we are given reason to doubt the text later on when Jason is unsure that he had confronted the right one.
I've talked before about how tired I am of revisiting The Killing Joke, and that sentiment has not changed. There's also an added ickiness as we revisit that trauma in that our point of view coming into the scars opens with a sensual shower scene, before recalling the implied sexual abuse and distinct violence that the Joker had inflicted on her. This feels gross and exploitative, in ways that have been covered all too often (and incredibly recently). This coupled with the ongoing plot in the Joker War, and with the plot point revealed in the upcoming Gotham Knights game (Babs healed her back through sheer force of will), its just a story that DC refuses to let die.
Three Jokers is built to play on nostalgia, both good and bad. Obviously, both Killing Joke and A Death in the Family are revisited, but the character designs also play to nostalgia. Batman looks like the one from the 1990s, yellow oval, and all. Batgirl is in her classic costume, complete with the yellow bat-headed boots. Fabok and Anderson do a great job of evoking the atmosphere of the books we grew up with, while still looking distinctly modern too.
While the art is strong for the most part, the writing is a bit more lackluster. Part of this is due to that same nostalgia, in that since it's heavily relying on an Alan Moore story, it too sticks to his traditional grid. There are times when this format makes the story feel repetitive and iterative. There's one page with a raccoon that really feels like it's just there to take up space, nothing of value is added with that page (other than a very nice drawing of a raccoon). When you're sticking to a format just to stick to a format, the story feels secondary to the format.
There are also several moments in the script that just fall flat or pull the reader out of the story. Rather than utilize blocked sound effects, during fight scenes (because gosh that'd be too silly for this very adult comic book), Jason instead says, "Pow. Bam. Biff. Nice name tags." Rather than embrace comics as a medium, and have fun with itself, the comic works to actively make you feel bad for liking comic tropes. There's also a line with Jason intimidating a Joker victim that reads a lot different than I think Geoff Johns intended it to. "What'd the Joker say before he bleached your ass?" I don't think Johns meant to drive the reader to think of a particular cosmetic procedure, but my mind definitely went there, and I had to stop reading for a bit to get my brain back to a not horrified place.
While I'm definitely not going to be buying Three Jokers, I'm giving it a browse just for the catharsis that comes with the last six pages of the issue. I'm not going to spoil what happens, but that alone may be worth a read or purchase for some.
Verdict: Browse
The Flash #760 was another punch in the gut for nostalgic '90s Flash fans. Williamson's last arc is picking up speed.
Still not a fan of the villain reveal in Suicide Squad, even more so now that his motivation is revealed.
The jam issue of Legion of Super-Heroes was absolutely fantastic, and it was great to see more of so many of these characters. I especially love this take on Dream Girl.
Joker War continues in Batgirl and Red Hood. It's fine, but nothing really special.

Any and all Joker stories these days are in the "wait for the reviews" category for me. And doing that, I've found so far that I've wound up reading none of them.
Also: Shouldn't the nicknames for the Jokers all be nouns? Why "Clownish" instead of "Clown"? (Granted, "Criminal" could go either way, noun or adjective, so maybe it's "Comedian" that's the odd one out.)

Great review Cori. I didn't even know this was black label and was utterly confused about the timeline, order of events, or even the importance of the story. A good read and very lovely but sadly inconsequential.

Югосла́вія () — федеративна держава, яка існувала у XX столітті на Балканському півострові, що у Південній Європі. Основними народами Югославії були серби, хорвати, словенці, боснійці, македонці, чорногорці та албанці. Столицею Югославії був Белград.

Югославія виникла внаслідок падіння Австро-Угорської імперії по завершенню Першої світової війни. Спершу ця держава була королівством, що об'єднало Сербію, Чорногорію і колишні австро-угорські землі Боснії, Хорватії та Словенії. Після Другої світової війни до влади в Югославії прийшли комуністи і вона перетворилася на союзну федеративну республіку, що складалася з шести республік і двох автономій. На початку 1990-х більшість цих республік проголосили незалежність від Белграда, що спричинило низку воєнних конфліктів, відомих як Югославські війни. З 1992 по 2003 роки у складі Югославії залишилися лише дві республіки і дві автономії.

2006 року Югославія остаточно розпалася на Чорногорію та Сербію, а 2008 року Сербія де-факто втратила одну з автономій — Косово.

Історія

Королівство Югославія

Югославію створили 1 грудня 1918 р. спочатку як Королівство сербів, хорватів і словенців, а з жовтня 1929 р. — Югославія (з сербською династією Карагеоргійовичів на чолі).

Міжвоєнну добу в історії Югославії характеризували боротьба партій, встановлення монархічної диктатури короля Олександра Карагеоргійовича (6 січня 1929 р.), вбивство короля у Марселі (9 жовтня 1934 р.), «березневий путч» (27 березня 1941 року) генерала Д. Сімовича тощо.

6 квітня 1941 року війська Третього Рейху та її союзників вторглися на територію Югославії. Король Петро ІІ Карагеоргієвич утік з урядом з країни, а військове командування 18 квітня підписало беззастережну капітуляцію. Територію Югославії розділили між окупантами, а на території колишньої Хорватської бановини (до якої німці пізніше приєднали Боснію й Герцеговину), утворено Хорватську державу, очолену організацією «усташів» і «поґлавніком» Анте Павелічем (10 квітня 1941 р.).

Від середини 1941 р. антинімецьке повстання охопило всю країну. Протягом 1942–1944 рр. у ньому сформувалися дві панівні течії: під проводом воєнного міністра югославського екзильного уряду в Лондоні, полковника Дражі Михайловича, антикомуністичного та монархічного напряму (четники), і Народно-визвольне військо Югославії (НВВЮ) під проводом Йосипа Броз Тіто і комуністичної партії. Визвольна боротьба перетворилася на громадянську війну, яка закінчилася перемогою НВВЮ (9 травня 1945 р.) за підтримки союзників і Червоної армії.

У жовтні 1944 через масові напади червоноармійців на громадян Югославії (зокрема, зафіксували 121 зґвалтування, 111 — з убивствами жертви, 1204 пограбування із завданням тілесних ушкоджень) керівники Югославії попросили голову радянської місії генерала  вгамувати насильників і розбійників. Той почав кричати про «наклеп» — жоден злочинець не був покараний. Між Й. Броз Тіто та Сталіним «пробігла чорна кішка».

Соціалістична Югославія

Установчі збори, скликані Народним фронтом (під проводом КПЮ), проголосили (29 листопада 1945 р.) Югославію Федеративною Народною Республікою (ФНРЮ), а 30 січня 1946 р. схвалено конституцію ФНРЮ.

КПЮ (від листопада 1952 р. — Союз Комуністів Югославії) стала єдиною політичною партією і, після проголошення Конституційного закону про основи суспільного й політ. устрою ФНРЮ та про союзні органи влади, змінила низку статей конституції (з 1946 р.) та формально перебрала повну владу.

Країна не входила до «Варшавського договору». Політико-економічний лад у країні — дивна суміш комуністичної ідеології та відносного економічного лібералізму. Діяли приватні магазини, ремісники, селяни мали право мати 10 га землі, необмежену кількість худоби.

За спогадами сербського історика, автора 3-х книг про Югославію, Сербію Михайла Рамача (1951 р. н.), він отримав закордонний паспорт та поїхав до Італії у віці 14 років. Працював журналістом в другій половині 1970-х, його редакція могла вільно передплатити «Тайм», «Ньюзвік», «Шпіґель», «». Безкоштовно отримували «Правду», «Литературную газету», «Огонёк» та купу безглуздих публікацій з Москви, яка тратила шалені гроші на «безглузду пропаганду». Покоління М. Рамача відверто глузувало з московської пропаганди.

Дозволяли писати про окремі негативні явища, піддавати критиці окремі рішення державних органів. Забороняли писати проти політичної системи країни, довічного президента. Не дозволяли засновувати інші партії.

Розпад і мала Югославія

Факторами розпаду Югославської федерації стали смерть Йосипа Тіто (*1892—†1980) і фіаско проведеної його наступниками національної політики, розпад світової соціалістичної системи, сплеск націоналізму в Європі (причому не тільки в країнах Центрально-Східного регіону). У 1990 році у всіх шести республіках СФРЮ були проведені місцеві вибори. Перемогу на них усюди здобули націоналістичні сили.

Зважаючи на наростання національних розбіжностей згідно з заповітом Тіто після його смерті пост президента країни був скасований, а на чолі країни стала Президія, члени якої (глави союзних республік і автономних областей) щорічно змінювали один одного по черзі. Короткочасний економічний підйом в середині 1980-х років закінчився стрімкою інфляцією і розвалом економіки, що призвело до загострення відносин між економічно розвиненішими Сербією, Хорватією і Словенією, та іншими республіками.

У ході громадянської війни і розпаду від Великої Югославії в кінці XX століття відокремилися чотири з шести союзних республік (Словенія, Хорватія, Боснія і Герцеговина, Північна Македонія). Тоді ж на територію спочатку Боснії і Герцеговини, а потім автономного краю Косово були введені миротворчі сили ООН під керівництвом США. Для врегулювання, згідно з рішенням ООН, міжетнічного конфлікту між сербським і албанським населенням Косова край був переведений під протекторат ООН. Тим часом Югославія, в якій на початку XXI століття залишалося дві республіки, перетворилася в Сербію і Чорногорію: з 1992 по 2003 роках — Союзна Республіка Югославія (СРЮ), з 2003 по 2006 роках — конфедеративний Державний Союз Сербії і Чорногорії. Югославія остаточно припинила існування з виходом з союзу Чорногорії 3 червня 2006 р.

A beautifully executed contemporary jazz album that chronicles a woman\'s journey toward self discovery.
'Who am I?' was Jean Laughlin's second project with co-producers, arranger Jim Martin and sound engineer Freddie Breitberg. As in all of their joint projects, Jim's hip Big Band charts and hauntingly beautiful string orchestrations superbly enhance Jean's original songs.
Sumptuous solos by well known Chicago jazz musicians, Frank Caruso (piano,) Jim Gailloreto (tenor sax,) and Art Davis (trumpet,) enhance the album further.
Jean's lyrics are very personal. In fact, a Chicago fan said that she felt like she had come to know Jean through her lyrics . As personal as the songs are, though, her listeners seem to relate to them easily.

Red Planet Plans

NASA's Mars Base concept
Mars : Plans in the Works
NASA is taking a multistep approach to its ultimate goal of putting boots on Mars.
The journey begins in low Earth orbit aboard the International Space Station (ISS), which has hosted rotating crews continuously since November 2000. During this time, NASA and its ISS partners have been learning more and more about how to support astronauts on space missions.
This effort took a big step forward this past March, when NASA astronaut Scott Kelly and cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko wrapped up an unprecedented 11-month mission aboard the orbiting lab that gave researchers new data about the physiological and psychological effects of long-duration spaceflight. (A Mars mission will be long-duration; it takes six to nine months to get to the Red Planet using currently available propulsion technology.)
In the next 10 years, NASA plans to extend the reach of human spaceflight out near the moon, to test spaceflight gear — such as the Space Launch System (SLS) megarocket and Orion crew capsule, both of which are in development — in a "proving ground" in deep space. For example, in the mid-2020s, the agency plans to send astronauts out to lunar orbit, to visit an asteroid boulder dragged there by a robotic spacecraft. (The boulder-snagging first part of this Asteroid Redirect Mission is scheduled to launch in the early 2020s.)
After the proving ground comes the journey to Mars itself. Current plans call for sending astronauts to Mars orbit in the early 2030s, with trips to the surface coming sometime after that. NASA officials have said they hope to eventually set up a small outpost on the Red Planet, where astronauts would search for signs of Mars life and perform other research.

"Live the Martian adventure" the ads said. "Mars has jobs." Amy said. So Joe packed their bags and they left their hometown in Northern Great Lakestan, convinced that this new life would be better.
It wasn't. There were jobs and the pay was good, but they were mostly desk jobs–the kind of work that you learn in an hour and wash/rinse/repeat for the rest of your life.
In every other way, Mars was the same as Wisconsin –eleven months of winter and one month of black flies.
