CPBJ: Pittsburgh developer plans mixed-use project in Lancaster City
A Pittsburgh-based developer is planning a mixed-used project designed to bring life back to a neglected corner of Queen Street in downtown Lancaster.
Zamagias Properties is converting the former Bulova building at 101 N. Queen St. into a mix of retail, office and residential space.
It plans to renovate more than 150,000 square feet of the four-story building, with retailers, restaurants and other service-oriented businesses on the first floor, and office space on the second and third floors. Luxury condos are planned for the top floor.
Zamagias has partnered with many Lancaster companies on the project, including Lefever Funk Architects, Community First Fund, RGS Associates and Warfel Construction, to name a few.
PPM Real Estate Inc. will lease and sell space inside. PPM is already in discussion with potential tenants that are a combination of local and national retailers, according to Corinn Kirchner, vice president of sales and leasing.
Renovations will begin this year, and the project is set to open in 2019.
Zamagias bought the building last year during an auction. It has been vacant since 2008 when Bulova Technologies, a one-time subsidiary of the Bulova Watch Co., moved out.
A former department store as well, the building has been identified for several years as a target of redevelopment efforts in Lancaster, and is "arguably the centerpiece site in downtown Lancaster," according to Lisa Riggs, president of the Economic Development Company of Lancaster County.
"There's a high priority to make sure that the building, and the block as a whole, can be redeveloped," Riggs said.
The mix of retail, office and residential space fits into what Lancaster City Alliance has outlined in its economic development strategic plan for Lancaster City, and the North Queen Street location in particular, according to Marshall Snively, CEO of the alliance.
"Obviously we're very excited about the renovation and the adaptive reuse of what's been a long-standing, frankly, eyesore, in the middle of downtown," Snively said.
Zamagias has invested in other properties downtown, such as the Keppel Building. A regional developer continuing to invest in Lancaster speaks volumes for the city, Snively added.
"The city of Lancaster is a special place," David Martens, president and CFO of Zamagias, said in a statement. "We are very happy to be part of making it even more special by giving new retailers, restaurants, office tenants and residents the opportunity to part of that excitement."

Beer Funerals & Ghost Marriages
It is worth mentioning that South Sudan has a complicated history with Sudan. Although it is one of the newer Republics it has experienced a tremendous amount of violence and killings. However, we will not approach such issues today. Instead, this article focuses on three different topics in South Sudan. Firstly, we discuss the Acholi death tradition of beer consumption at funerals. Secondly, we explore the mysterious ghost marriages of the Nuer and Atuot ethnic groups. Finally, we conclude with a description of the impact of COVID-19 on burial and mourning practices in South Sudan.
Beer Consumption as a Death Practice

Acholi People
Even before South Sudan gained independence from Sudan, the Acholi tribe had its own distinct funeral customs. According to sources dating back to 1997, Acholi funerals included singing, dancing and eating. More importantly perhaps, brewing and consuming beer is also a big part of the Acholi culture. Therefore, Acholi death customs had a more positive, celebratory nature. However, that was in stark contrast with the somber Islamic funeral rites of Sudan.
Back in the day, Acholis were not allowed to drink beer however. Specifically, due to the dominating presence of Islamic principles in state affairs, alcohol was prohibited in Sudan. The Acholi still assigned meaning to beer, or maraisa, though. A funeral with brewed beer was not a real funeral. It also did not matter to the government whether Acholis consumed beer for fun or as part of the local customs.

Bier or beer?
It was therefore common that police raided funerals, looking for alcohol. In case they found any they immediately confiscated it. Accounts from these times support that these beer death customs were particularly important to the elder of the Acholi community. They supported that during these more uplifting funerals they masked their pain into happiness.
Specifically, they were very open about drinking their sorrows during the three day funeral event. And although alcohol does not help processing feelings, the Acholi point out that during their beer funerals they get to celebrate their loved one's life, without having feelings of loss, anxiety and grief dominating the event.
In other words, they choose to say goodbye to their deceased relative in a cheerful manner, instead a sad one.
Before South Sudan's independence, Acholi's beer funerals were causing many problems for this ethnic group. Researchers have documented even violent incidents between Muslims and Acholis during these times.

Acholi Refugee Funerals
Nowadays, there is a considerable Acholi population that lives away from Sudan. For example, the Acholi of Kiryandongo in Uganda practice much smaller scale funeral customs (lyel). Or at least they do so for the initial burial. Like a few other African societies, the Acholi throw a much larger funeral event on a later stage. In the case of the Acholi, that usually takes place a year after the initial burial.
These celebratory events include both Christian and indigenous religious practices. Additionally, they include the consumption of locally-brewed beer. Members of the clans also join in to make sure that they enjoy beer together. In this respect, even the Acholi diaspora stays very true to its roots and traditions.
Ghost Marriages
Marriage is often defined as a financial or socially accepted sexual union of two individuals. However these elements clearly do not apply when one of these adults is… dead!
Traditional dance of women - South Sudan
Nuer People
The Nuer are Nilotic people residing in South Sudan. According to their customs, if a man dies without an heir, a particular process starts. One of the deceased's sisters-in law would have to marry his ghost. In other words, one of the wives of the deceased's brothers needs to accept a ghost marriage. This way the children this woman already has will become the heirs of the deceased.
Another version of this fascinating tradition sees a barren woman related to the dead man replacing him. This relative of the dead man becomes the male – culturally and socially – in their relationship. Therefore, it is not considered a same-sex relationship. In similar fashion as the original custom we describe above, the children of the wife are considered offspring of the dead. In a way this is a ghost marriage by proxy!

Ghost Marriage & Cattle
Normally, Nuer men use cattle as currency for weddings and bribes. They also give their cattle to their sons after they die. If the deceased, however, had no heirs, the cattle goes to his brother. In the cases we described above, cattle functions as currency to get a bribe also for the deceased's ghost.
The main purpose of a Nuer ghost marriage is for the family to acquire male heirs. In Nuer culture it is also crucial to have male heirs, due to the higher position they have in their community. For example, women are not allowed to own cattle. Therefore, a ghost marriage ensures the continuation of their bloodline.
Atuot People
Very similar to the Nuer, the Atuot also practice the death custom of ghost marriages. The main difference becomes visible in case that the deceased had a daughter. In this circumstance, it is very likely that the daughter takes a male role and actually gets a wife.
Trading cattle instead of fighting over has also dramatically reduced male deaths related to cattle-acquisition. That means that nowadays there are more male owners of cattle and therefore, the popularity of ghost marriages has declined.

Purpose of Ghost Marriages
In addition to these, the Atuot support that they use ghost marriages as precaution to not let the family name die out. Researchers have backed this claim using the Atuot language as evidence. For example, ghost marriage in Atuot can be also translated into "holding up straight". This refers perhaps to the notion of holding the name of the dead alive. Finally, offspring of a ghost marriage are sometimes discriminated against.
An additional purpose for a ghost marriage has sometimes also a spiritual dimension. In other words, if the spirit is married to someone, he will not seek revenge from the afterlife. Moreover, the oldest brother needs to marry before his younger brothers in the Atuot culture. This applies even if the older brother dies, since his siblings cannot get married.

COVID-19 & Death Practices
Some tribes in South Sudan tend to immediately gather up upon someone's death. They would normally build temporary tents and start collectively working on organizing the funeral. Collective mourning is advised heavily against, though, since the beginning of the pandemic.
That applies also to customs regarding body preparation prior to the burial. Although certain communities bury their dead immediately after death, the body is always cared for. Men wash the body of a man, and women do the same. During the pandemic, communal activities are discouraged. However, people invite a community or religious leader during the body preparation. Authorities in South Sudan recommend the usage of protective gear when handling a dead body of a confirmed case.
Large Christian Congregation are often the case - Church of Wulu, Lakes State, South Sudan
Burials & Funerals
Both Muslim and Christian South Sudanese like to attend the burial of a loved one. They even both throw dirt in the grave! During the COVID-19 crisis, traditional burials take place as normal only if the deceased was not positive to the virus. Otherwise the measures propose that these should be much more quiet events.
During the actual funeral many tribes express their grief in physical manners. That includes handshakes and frequent hugging between many relatives. Additionally, according to social norms, it is offensive to not attend the funeral of a friend or neighbor.
Because of the public character of the funerals, South Sudan tried to implement social distancing and proposed that masks should be handed to attendees. The extent of success of such measures at funerals has not yet been studied in the country.
We hope you learned something new regarding this country's death practices!

What is the average death rate?
The average mixed death rate in South Sudan is 10,342 per 1.000 people (2019).
When is a deceased buried or cremated?
The funerals usually follow the teachings of the deceased's religion. Muslims tend to to bury their dead as soon as possible. Christian South Sudanese may wait a bit before burying them.
What are the most common religions?
Around 60% of South Sudan's population is Christian. Over 32% follows African religions, and there is a 6% Islamic presence. However, Christian and Indigenous religions often intermix in South Sudan.
It is also important to point out that Christianity already reached this region around the second century.
No clear data regarding South Sudan's donor system is available. There might even not be a system in place since South Sudan is one of the youngest Republics in the world – 2011!

Chennai: Tamilnadu politics has always been dominated by Tamil film personalities, and the AIADMK and DMK, the two Dravidian majors, know this better than anyone else. Chief Ministers of the past from these parties – C N Annadurai, M Karunanidhi, M G Ramachandran, V N Janaki and J Jayalalithaa – have strong cinema links and their filmi-fame played a key role in building their political career.
Cut to the present, while the AIADMK and the DMK lack star power, as their current heads are no cinema personalities, two top stars of Kollywood – Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan – have thrown their hat in the political ring.
And this has, obviously, made these Dravidian giants pull up their socks to face the 'Superstar' and 'Nammavar'.
Though managers of the AIADMK and DMK speak out in open that they are not bothered about the political entry of Rajini and Kamal, sources in both parties say the 'issue' is being discussed by their leaders in internal meetings and strategies are being worked out to devise ways to woo the people, especially with just months left for the Lok Sabha elections.
Are days of calendars gone?

Forty Years ago, China opened to the world.
There is no question that the lives of average Chinese have improved remarkably since China "opened up". From the drab sameness of Mao-era gray suits to today's designer lifestyle, seeing China then and now is as if a movie had begun in in black and white and suddenly switched to Technicolor with Dolby surround sound – the change is that remarkable. And dramatic. China's achievements are not only remarkable but universally acknowledged.
The Chinese, both its government and people, are investing in education, infrastructure, and technology – fully embracing the future. They understand that knowledge, innovation, and creativity are the drivers of 21st century currency that will propel them forward not only as individuals, but as a nation so they invest heavily in education as a poverty-alleviation tool.
China has soared. Consider this:
• 700 million people have moved from abject poverty to a Chinese middle class.
• China has become the world's fastest growing large economy.
• Chinese students significantly outperform U.S. students on international tests.
• China is the world's largest auto producer.
• China has become a banker to the U.S., owning more than 20 percent of our total foreign reserves or more than 3 trillion dollars
• China's economy has been the world's largest during 18 of the past 20 centuries and they are working hard again to regain their stature as a global power.
Clearly Michigan has benefited from China's coming out party. According to the Michigan Economic Development Corporation, in 2016, Michigan ranked second in the nation for the number of investment projects from China. Michigan also ranks third in the nation for the number of jobs created by Chinese investment.
Between January 2010 and July 2017, Michigan received $1.1 billion in new business investment from China, creating 5,475 jobs for Michigan residents – an ROI (return on investment) that has created numerous benefits for the people of the Great Lakes State.
Governor Snyder has done more to cement the bond between China and Michigan than all his predecessors combined. Incoming Governor Whitmer understands that building bridges is a far smarter strategy than erecting walls. Her focus will be to continue to seek foreign direct investment that helps create jobs and wealth in Michigan and export our goods and services around the globe.
While it seemed easy to mine cynical votes by making China the bogeyman during past elections; the fact is, we have lost more jobs to automation and productivity than we have "shipped to China."
All major issues in the world today intersect at the corner of Washington, DC and Beijing. How these global issues are resolved will impact the people of China, America and, indeed all of humanity. Our leaders must sit down – and with mutual respect – negotiate to reach a face-saving agreements on all sides.
The U.S./China relationship need not be a geopolitical game of see-saw – one nation down when the other is up. Rather, America needs a national strategy to invest in infrastructure, technology/AI (artificial intelligence), education and workforce development. Whining about China's rise will not prevent our demise.
Let's find ways to rise together. May the next 40 years be even better than the first 40.

HFNY Workshop: Justice, Mercy, and Neighboring POSTPONED
THIS WORKSHOP HAS BEEN POSTPONED.
On October 29 and November 5 from 1:30-3pm, as an extension of our series Love Where You Live: The Art of Neighboring, Trinity will be hosting a workshop led by Peter Ong from Hope for New York.
We will explore the key ways God's story is an unfolding of the church's presence through God's work of renewal and redemption in the midst of brokenness. What is the call of the church in the work of Kingdom building?
We will see God tracing his character through his unveiling of Hesed (loving-kindness, mercy), Mishpat (justice) and Shalom (holistic flourishing) as it reflects God's character and vision for His creation. We will look at God's call to the community of God to express Hesed, Mishpat, and Shalom, a call to flourishing for our communities and neighbors.
Peter Ong has served in New York City for nearly 20 years, with his passion for mercy and justice focused on engaging the church to serve local immigrant youth. He has advised youth ministries and conferences locally and nationally. Peter also served as volunteer staff at Intervarsity Christian Fellowship at New York University. He then came on staff as Director of Gospel Community at Living Faith Community Church where he established a mercy and justice ministry. In 2011, he was a Redeemer City to City Church Planting Fellow, during which time he and his wife, Jamie, planted King's Cross Church, a congregation of Living Faith Community Church, serving downtown Flushing's immigrant families. He also served as City to City's Catalyst Leader to network and coach new church planters. Peter graduated with a B.A. in English and a Minor in Philosophy and East Asian Studies from New York University. He received his M.A. in Urban Missions from Westminster Theological Seminary through City Seminary of New York. He is a certified Church Multiplication Ministries Coach.

U.S. Is Running Short of Land for Housing
Jung Getty / Getty Images
Land-use restrictions, lack of public infrastructure investment and rising land prices contribute to the issue. Land accounts for about 47% of U.S. home values.
NEW YORK – Land suitable for housing is increasingly scarce in the United States due to land-use restrictions and a dearth of public infrastructure investment. Land prices are rising as developers try to encourage migration to large cities, which exacerbates the housing shortage.
CoStar Group's land-listing website Land.com reports that the average price of vacant land per acre in the Sunbelt more than doubled in the past two years through the second quarter. Few investors are bidding on deals even as land prices remain high, and some landowners worry about a downturn similar to the 2008 crash, when home and land values plunged.
The land price surge has been lucrative for homeowners, as Rutgers Business School Professor Morris Davis says land now accounts for 47% of U.S. home values, compared to 38% 10 years ago.
Asking prices for homes in new communities such as pristine acreages in Tampa go as high as $900,000, partly because the land underneath is so precious, mainly due to land-use regulations. Tampa's zoning rules bar developers from building anything larger than a single-family home in much of the city, which has raised the price of developable land.
The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Index estimates that home prices in the Tampa metropolitan area climbed 35% between early 2021 and early 2022.
Most economists say municipalities need to ease zoning rules and other constraints to reduce land inflation and build more housing, which homeowners rarely welcome.

Why Should Businesses Offer Online Personality Tests to Their Employees?
Personality tests help businesses manage and understand their employees on both a personal and professional level. Businesses looking to develop existing talent or recruit potential candidates can make informed choices for improving and hiring based on the results of the personality test. Businesses can create a personality test on an online exam software to reduce costs.
Your employees will be able to learn more about themselves by taking a personality test via the test maker software. For instance, a person's job involves giving speeches and interacting with large groups of people. By giving the personality test on an online exam software, it will tell the employer if they are fit for the job role or not, as the test may reveal them to be an introvert.
You are interviewing several people for a certain job. The job requires the candidate to have certain qualities about them. The personality test developed and taken via an online exam software will tell the employer if the person is the right fit for the job or not. By giving personality tests, businesses will have a higher chance of hiring highly skilled and qualified employees and decrease turnover.
If you require your employees to work as part of a team, you need to bring people on board who can work well with others in reaching the shared goal of the company. You can also use personality tests as a tool to help each member of the team learn more about each other. You can discuss the results of the personality tests as a team to build a better understanding of each other. In addition to this, you can create personality tests to bring team members together and increase productivity.
You may give potential candidates an online personality test on a test maker software because you want to determine if their personality will mesh well with your current employees. If your employees work as a team, it will not be a wise decision to hire someone who displays strong leadership skills for instance.
If your business deals with customers, a personality test will tell you if a potential candidate is people friendly or not. Another reason to give them a personality test is that it tells you about how driven they are to perform well in the organization. Most importantly, it enables you to hire whom you like.
Of course, you should not solely on personality tests to make a hiring decision, but it should be one step out of the many to securing a position in your company.

This project entails industrial design and fabrication of beer tap handles for Visit Skipping Rock Brewery in Staunton Virginia. The brewery is under construction and we have just begun the production on this project, so it may be a few weeks before images of a final product are in place here. We started off with a few different design comps we modeled and rendered in Fusion 360. The final design iteration is shown below bottom right image. The brand logo is very detailed which makes some of the text very small milling operations. Most of our CNC Milling work is at a larger scale which challenged us how to mill with .25mm end mills without breaking lots of them. So far the progress is promising. Originally we originally chose white oak for its light color and natural texture. We found the grain was too large for the small letters to stay together along with small edges being to rough. Maple which also has a light color, but less texture turned out to mill very well for small scale operations. We did our first few tests with Poplar because we have lots of scraps in the shop to muck up.

Het bier-pamperssyndroom is een vermeende correlatie tussen de verkopen van bier en luiers. Het wordt vaak gebruikt als voorbeeld van de voordelen die ICT in het algemeen en analyse van koopgedrag (middels systemen als klantenkaarten en Airmiles) in het specifiek kunnen brengen.

Het syndroom zou ontdekt zijn toen een supermarkt(keten) voor het eerst een dergelijk computersysteem invoerde. De correlatie tussen de verkopen van bier en luiers was een opmerkelijke conclusie, die verklaard werd door het feit dat veel huisvrouwen in die tijd nog geen auto hadden. Ze deden hun boodschappen per fiets en konden geen grote pakken luiers meenemen. Daarom lieten ze hun man op vrijdagavond met de auto luiers halen. Deze zou dan vervolgens voor zichzelf ook een kratje bier voor het weekend meenemen.

De supermarkt zou hier handig op ingesprongen zijn door het bier zichtbaar aanwezig in de route van de ingang via de luiers naar de kassa op te stellen, en zo de bieromzet nog meer vergroot hebben.

Er is echter geen enkele wetenschappelijke bron voor dit verhaal bekend, noch is bekend om welke supermarkt(keten) het zou gaan. Vandaar dat wordt vermoed dat het een broodjeaapverhaal betreft.

Time to mullet over: Why Shaver Shop shares are growing on us
By Chris Batchelor
Extended periods of lockdown last year gave many of us the opportunity to go wild. The hair grew long and scruffy as did the beards. It was somewhat liberating, but for those who still had to front up as presentable on Zoom calls, they often had no choice but to do their own grooming. Certainly in Melbourne a trip to the hair saloon was off limits for several months.
Shaver Shop (ASX:SSG) was one of those businesses that has benefited from the changes COVID has forced upon society. Their sales of hair clippers, beard trimmers and other personal care products have soared, especially online sales, which more than doubled for the half year to December 2020.
Shaver Shop commenced in Melbourne in 1986. They have gradually built a network of stores across Australia and New Zealand which stands at 123 currently and they are aiming to get to 135 in three years. But it is the online sales that have grown exponentially as people changed their shopping habits due to COVID. This growth is likely to abate somewhat as life returns to normal, but the trend will remain as more commerce shifts online.
Shaver Shop's revenue growth is not just a function of the COVID surge. Sales have grown at over 25% per annum for the last eight years. Despite this success, they have only captured about 3% of their addressable market in Australia and New Zealand.
The big opportunity is if they can maintain a high level of growth in online sales. Online sales represented 13% of sales in financial year 2019 and have now passed 30%. If online is done well, it can enable a business to grow sales whilst reducing overheads.
Unlike many of their peers in the online retail space, Shaver Shop is a profitable business. They generate gross margins over 40% and a return on equity in the high teens. They generated a net profit of $10.6 million in financial year 2020 and recently announced that profit for the first half of 2021 alone would be between $13.5 million to $14 million.
Since the depths of the COVID crash in March last year the share price has increased by about a factor of six. Despite this the valuation metrics still seem quite modest. The PE ratio for projected 2021 earnings is less than seven and the dividend yield is above 5%. However, it is worth noting that the average PE ratio for the last five years has only been 7.6.
The market capitalisation for Shaver Shop is about $140 million. This makes it a micro-cap stock and off the radar for many investors. About 38% of shares are tightly held by key investors meaning there is a lower level of liquidity in the stock.
Despite the recent strong advance in the share price, it has only just returned to the levels of September 2016, where it hit highs of $1.20 having listed at $1.05 in June of that year. The share price has plunged and rebounded several times making for a volatile ride.
Shaver Shop is not for the timid, but if they can deliver on their potential and lock in the gains they have made in recent times, then it might be one that adds some sparkle to your portfolio.

Q: Iterating over a sorted array to remove duplicates Let me start by saying this a homework question that I am having trouble with.
I have sorted an array and what I need to do is use another array to remove duplicates by iterating over the first and comparing adjacent items then adding the non duplicates to the new array.  Once I have finished that I set the old array = to the new array.  I am not used to java and therefore I am running into some problems I think getting the iteration setup correctly.
public static void main(String[] args) {
    args = new String[] { "data/list1.txt" };
    StdIn.fromFile("data/list2.txt");
    // StdOut.toFile ("finished.txt");
    int[] whitelist = In.readInts(args[0]);

    Arrays.sort(whitelist);
    int newArray[] = new int[whitelist.length];
    for (int i = 0; i < whitelist.length-1; i++) {
        int k = 0;
        if(whitelist[i+1] > whitelist[i])
            newArray[k] = whitelist[i];
            k++;
        StdOut.println(java.util.Arrays.toString(whitelist));
        whitelist = newArray;
        }
    for (int i=0; i<newArray.length;i++){
        StdOut.println(java.util.Arrays.toString(newArray));
    }

This code piece is part of a larger binary search, but this is the portion I am having problems with.
My output besides not having the duplicates removed also prints out several times.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

A: With the limitations like not using collections, your code can be rewritten this way, and it will work:
    Arrays.sort(whitelist);
    int newArray[] = new int[whitelist.length];
    newArray[0] = whitelist[0];
    int k = 1;
    for (int i = 0; i < whitelist.length - 1; i++) {
        if(whitelist[i+1] > whitelist[i]) {
            newArray[k] = whitelist[i + 1];
            k++;
        }
    }
    newArray = Arrays.copyOf(newArray, k);
    whitelist = newArray;
    System.out.println(Arrays.toString(newArray));

A: The if only applies to the first instruction, k++ is incremented in each iteration. You should use:
if (whitelist[i+1] > whitelist[i]) {
        newArray[k] = whitelist[i];
        k++;
}

Also, in the first loop you are overwritting the whilelist with newArray even after the first operation, I think you meant to move this outside the for:
StdOut.println(java.util.Arrays.toString(whitelist));
whitelist = newArray;

A: It could help you start any work by outlining the algorithm on paper, it will help when you have to code for interviews.

A: Generally speaking you should correctly define equals() and hashCode(), to define what the word "duplicate" means for your objects. But since you use primitives and wrappers (through boxing/unboxing) you don't have to do it here.
Then you should put your array into some Set collection. All duplicates will be eliminated automatically. After that put the Set back to Array.
The Java built-in mechanism will remove duplicates in the most optimized way.
You will not have to do it manually.
    Integer[] whitelistI = null;
    Set set = new HashSet(Arrays.asList(whitelist));
    whitelistI = (Integer []) set.toArray(new Integer[set.size()]);

If you need an array of primitives you can copy it from whitelistI.
Moreover, this is wrong:
int newArray[] = new int[whitelist.length];

Your new array will be of the same length as the original one, but you said you want to delete duplicates.
If you delete duplicates its actual size becomes shorter and your new array will have empty values (in your case - 0 (zeros)).

Living south of the Metro has always been equated with a laid-back lifestyle, with more open spaces, community retail and restaurant rows, and less of the everyday congestion experienced in the main central business districts (CBD).
This is the type of lifestyle that Cathay Land is offering at its latest real estate development project, Anantara Square, located along Alabang-Zapote Road in Las Piñas City, between SM South Mall and Robinsons Place Las Piñas.
The project's first tower, a 20-storey mixed-use building, will feature about 700 units, comprised mainly of studio units and one-bedroom suites.
Bigger units are offered at the two penthouse floors via combining adjacent units. Greenery will be an important aspect of the project, with pocket gardens, an open-air courtyard, with a beautiful view of the sunrise and sunset to bookend the day.
"Through Anantara Square, we will be able to offer that relaxed style of living that the southern suburbs are famous for, while giving our future residents the accessibility to the growing CBD in the Alabang area, and even further south," said Cathay Land president Jeffrey Ng.

Q: How can I manage that a JSON does not always have to be open? I have what I think is a bit more difficult "problem" to solve today. In my script, I have a function which reads out a corresponding translation/record from a JSON for each executed command.
The function looks like this:
response_string = {} # Gets the correct JSON from my JSON structure and reads out the correct message
def get_lang(guild, response):
    try:
        with open("languages.json", "r") as f: # Open the JSON to see which language the guild chose
            data = json.load(f)

        return response_string[data[str(guild)]][response] # Get response from the corresponding JSON for the guild
    except:
        return response_string['english'][response] # If not set it is English

But here is the concern, that the JSON file is always open. This could become an issue in the end, I have been told. The JSON structure from which I get the responses looks like this:
./languages # Folder
./languages/german.json
./languages/english.json
...

In a JSON it looks like this:
{
    "all_langs": "Available Languages"
}

Say, for each language, there is a translation in each JSON. When running a command, I would then always call get_lang, "all_langs".
I was told that it would be smart to convert the JSON to a dict and then read out all the translations when starting the application, so you don't always have to have the JSON open. Is this a common or better practice?
I have already looked at the following articles:

*

*Python open json file keep in memory

*Open and read latest json file one time only

*How to save a list to a file and read it as a list type?
I also started and thought about how to handle this.
client.languages_loaded = False # Set it to False

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Online")

    if client.languages_loaded:
        return

    client.languages_loaded = True

    client.languages = # Define all the JSON's here or start to store it in a dict?

But unfortunately I can't get any further, I'm more or less at the end with the knowledge, because in the end I don't know how the readout should always work without keeping the JSON open. About any tip I am grateful!
UPDATE:
The code I use to get the correct language JSON is the following:
for i in os.listdir('./languages'):
    if i.endswith('.json'):
        with open(os.path.join('./languages', i)) as file: # Always open
            response = json.load(file) # Get the response from the correct JSON
        response_string[i.replace(".json", "")] = response # Give out response

A: I think what you're trying to do would look something like this.
languages = {}

with open("languages.json", "r") as f: # Open the JSON
    languages = json.load(f)

response_string = {} # Gets the correct JSON from my JSON structure and reads out the correct message
def get_lang(guild, response):
    try:
        return response_string[languages[str(guild)]][response] # Get response from the corresponding JSON for the guild
    except:
        return response_string['english'][response] # If not set it is English

A: If your json is not modified when the application run, a best practice should to have a object in memory to store this info ( a dataclass maybe).
The only drawback of that is if the json files are huge it could take a lot of memory in this case.
Alternatively you can store the same data in a mysql database and instead of reading the file you just run a mysql request to get the translation.
But I think as a good start having all translation in memory is better.

A: If you want to want to modify your dictionary and not open it everytime just for reading, you can do something like this.
import json

bot = commands.Bot(...)

def startup_task():
   with open('languages.json()', 'r') as file:
        bot.langauges = json.load(file)

def modify_json():
    with open('languages.json', 'w') as file:
         json.dump(bot.languages, file)

@bot.command()
async def modifydict(ctx, key, value):
    bot.languages[key] = value # modifying it in memory first
    loop = bot.loop
    await loop.run_in_executor(None, modify_json) # in case json is too big and we want to avoid blocking
    return await ctx.send(f"Updated the json successfully with key: `{key}` and value: `value`") # modified it in the json too

@bot.command()
async def readjson(ctx, key):
    try:
       value = bot.languages[key] # you are not reading json again!
    except KeyError:
       value = None
    if not value:
       return await ctx.send(f"No such key was found in dictionary")
    return await ctx.send(f"The value of key {key} was found to be {value}")

startup_task()
bot.run("TOKEN")

I don't fully understand what you exactly require but I think it's something along these lines? Let me kknow if I am wrong

Until now, real-time slurry density monitoring in the drilling industry is done with risky and expensive nuclear densitometers. With the introduction of the Arenal ultrasonic slurry density Analyser the density recording can now be performed in a more secure, user-friendly and highly accurate manner, while saving costs and allowing for quicker interventions.
The ultrasonic spectroscopy technology in combination with the extremely abrasion-resistant sensor allows for the monitoring of all water and oil based drilling muds with barite, bentonite among others.

Q: How do I refactor my code to a new file and preserve git history? So I want to extract a part of a large file to a new one and to preserve git history, so I'll be able to run git blame and see the changes as before the refactoring.

A: In Git, the history is the commits.  There is no file history.  This is unlike most other version control systems: Those other VCSes that do track "file identity" need you to inform them that new file path/to/new.ext is derived from path/to/existing.ext so that they can associate the new file's history with the old file's history.  Similarly, they need you to inform them about file renames—although some, like ClearCase, can auto-detect renames by simply acting as the file system for the work-tree.  Git does not need any of this because it does not work that way.1
Instead, in Git, when you compare one commit—call it a—to another (b), Git attempts to discover (dynamically, at compare-time) whether some file a/path/to/name is "the same" as another file b/some/other/path/to/anothername.  The degree of comparison and the algorithm for deciding that these are the same file, or are different files, are up to the Git command.  The git diff command starts by looking at the actual path names: if they are the same, the files are the same,2 otherwise they are probably different.  The "probably" part is where rename detection comes in, if you have enabled it.  A regular git diff also has -C and --find-copies-harder to enable "file-copied-from" detection.  Using -C twice (or --find-copies-harder) sets things up to look for new files being copied from any file in the a commit (this is considered too expensive to do automatically; normally, only files that are otherwise considered "modified" are treated as source-of-copy candidates).
The git blame command is somewhat different (and the a and b commits are just automatically parent-and-child of each commit), but it still has a -C option.  Its -C works a bit differently: one -C looks for lines copied from files modified between commits a and b.  Using -C twice looks for such lines copied from any file in commit a, and with three -C flags, it will "find copies harder still": it will look at every file in every commit to find copied code.
Hence, for most purposes you can just use one -C on your git blame.  You should use -C -C if the copied code comes from a non-modified file.  Use three -Cs if you believe some code was deleted many revs ago, then resurrected, and you want to find the original source.  Note that git blame's -C option turns on git blame's -M option, which detects moved code (and is therefore quite different from git diff's -M option—file rename detection, a la git log --follow,3 is always enabled).

1This is a nice advantage for Git over other VCSes, because Git can detect cases that humans forgot, and also can detect renames when comparing "far apart" revisions.  It's a terrible disadvantage for Git, because it must detect cases even if humans would not have forgotten, and hence misses renames.  It's a big advantage for Git, because future smarter algorithms use the existing data in better ways.  In short, there are arguments for why it's better and why it's worse, but ultimately it's just different.
2For git diff, you can conditionally break apart these automatically-paired "same name means same file" pairings using its -B option.  This is unavailable to, yet unnecessary for, git blame, which is not doing this kind of pairing.
3The code enabled by --follow in git log is a horrible hack that basically only works for the one case required by git blame.  Do not try to use --follow with reverse-order git log.

Trends in magnitude, frequency and timing of floods in Spain
January 19th, 2015 | Download as PDF
An analysis of trends in magnitude, frequency and timing of floods was conducted at a national scale in Spain in 60 gauging stations for the periods 1942–2009, 1949–2009 and 1959–2009. A general decreasing trend in annual maximum series was found in Spain in the three periods, with more notable evidence in the period 1959–2009 than 1942–2009. Autumn floods showed a decreasing trend in eastern Spain, mainly in the Ebro and Júcar catchments. A general decreasing pattern was found in winter, spring and summer.
Detected trends in flood series were linked to increasing trends in evapotranspiration that increase the loss of water in soils and reduce moisture content in the catchment before the occurrence of flood events. Most flood trends could not be explained by trends in precipitation. Consequently, decreasing trends in flood series seems to be related to increasing temperatures and decreasing relative humidity in the last decades.
