Q: Remove the first elements of a path in XSLT I'm trying to remove the first 3 'tokens' of a path-looking string in XSLT 2.0.
For instance, go from D:/FolderA/folderB/folderC/file.ext to folderC/file.ext.
I cant find a quick idea to do it other than using a recursive function I'm struggling to write.
<xsl:variable name="tokenizedPath" select="(tokenize($url,'/'))" />
<xsl:value-of select="yy:restofpath($tokenizedPath,2)" />

where yy:restofpath could be something like:
<xsl:function name="yy:restofpath" as="xs:string">
  <xsl:param name="pathtokens"/>
  <xsl:param name="startIndex"/>
  <xsl:variable name="length" select="count($pathtokens)"/>
  <xsl:for-each select="$pathtokens">
    <xsl:value-of select="string-join(.,yy:restofpath($pathtokens,),'')"/>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:function>

This is a dumb function that I cant write, I'm confused how to process my tokenized string.
Maybe there is a simpler built-in way to do that?

A: Given:
<xsl:variable name="tokenizedPath" select="tokenize($url,'/')" />

then you can use:
<xsl:value-of select="string-join($tokenizedPath[position() gt 3], '/')"/>

Almost every older musician has this feeling that it's too late to start a career, considering how old they are. But nothing can be further from the truth.
In fact, there are several benefits attached to starting a music career later on in life. So, here are 3 benefits that older musicians enjoy if they so choose to pursue a music career.
Costs are involved in a music career, and that's something older musicians might have more of compared to musicians in their teens or 20s. Sometimes, getting into the music business costs one a lot of money and can act as a deterrent for most younger people. So, it goes without saying that with this financial cushion, it's easier for older musicians to get their career off the ground in a number of ways.
Another advantage that older musicians have is that they just play much better than they were in their teens considering the number of hours that they've put into playing their instrument. But that's not all – you'd probably have spent more time writing lyrics or even playing live and gotten a whole lot better at it too. In being technically proficient compared to your younger peers, it does turn out to be an advantage.
Yet another advantage of being a bit older is the fact that you have maturity on your side as a musician and are capable of handling the temptations that the music industry throws at you both in the studio as well as on the road. In fact, this is how most musicians tend to destroy their career completely, and one that you'll be able to bypass with ease.
Many musicians write their own melodies as well as the lyrics.

This week we are back in Sutton-in-the-Isle for Sutton Grapevine our story gathering and sharing project commissioned by ADeC.
From 3rd – 9th of June we'll be roving around the village gathering and recording stories in many ways; from hanging out at the election, the community shop, the pub and the community spaces with a large village map, to visiting local clubs and individuals, to hosting a storytelling dinner with the residents of a street, to running workshops and going for walks. As the village continues to change through growth, movement and migration the initiative aims to let local people explore place and identity.
Alongside this we've integrated storytelling and news sharing (by email and with a WordPress blog); sound recordings (via the free podbean and AudioBoo podcasting servicees and the low cost Gabcast telephone-to-MP3 podcasting service); photo sharing (via the Flickr group pool); social connections (via the Facebook Group) and news feeds (via Twitter). We will also be adding in some of our own inventions like StoryCubes and Diffusion eBooks to make tangible things that can be passed around, as well as the digital media.
Should you find yourself in the area please come and find us in Sutton to add a story to the Grapevine or join in remotely.
We will be back during Sutton Feast Week from the 1st – 5th July with an exhibition and audio broadcasts at St Andrews Church and around the village.


Indian Street Food – thinking of the colourful food items you find on street side shops?
Some look very delicious, right? In India, street food is also diverse as our country is. Different regions have a vast variety of food on offer in the streets.
On a recent trip to Mumbai, we had bhel puri and vada pav from a street shop vendor at Nariman Point, the busy business area of our Finance capital. People from all the near by offices were seen having food in these shops lined on the foot path.
The return trip to Chennai was from Pune. So we traveled to Pune. and on the way had to stop at a street shop for some snacks. Was delighted that we stopped by. The food was delicious. The vendors were happy to pose for a photograph too. The tea they served was awesome. Still the taste lingers on my tongue.
Coming down to our own Chennai, there is a lot on offer on the streets. The north has come down here. We will get Pav Bhajji, Bhel Puri, Pani Puri, Papdi Chat, Mixed Chat, Churmur Chat, Anarkali Chat, Channa Samosa, Chola Poori and what not.
Are you going to Marina beach or Beseant Nagar Beach? Again you will get hot samosas, Cutlets, Chat items, Fish fry, Ground nut in cones, Corn.. Had butter masala sweet cones from VGP Universal Kingdom. Really tasty. Had them along with cookies and coffee.
Another delicacy, raw mangoes, sprinkled with chilly powder and salt, available in most of the tourist places in South India.
If you are traveling on NH 45 from Chennai to South Tamilnadu, you will find Kumbakonam Degree Coffee. There are a lot of shops on either side of the NH 45 which offer Original Kumbakonam Coffee in brass tumblers. They will be really hot and tasty too. Never miss it.
I know I haven't touched so many of the other street food delicacies, but have not tasted them yet. Hope to travel around India to have my taste buds satisfied with our mouth watering foods.

Q: GradientDrawable setStroke Doesn't Work on Android Lollipop I have a Drawable inside an image view that I'm modifying at runtime in order to provide custom colors for a user's rank. The method for modifying this works fine on Android versions below 20, but above it the drawable fails to update consistently.
The particular method in question looks like:
void setColor(int color) {
    GradientDrawable drawable = (GradientDrawable) mImageView.getDrawable().mutate();
    drawable.setStroke(14, color);
    drawable.invalidateSelf(); // make sure we redraw
}

As I said, this works fine before Android 20, but after Android 20 the drawable doesn't add the stroke. Is there a new method or did I forget something?

A: you should invalidate the view:
mImageView.invalidate();

Tareq Azim Lives Family Legacy with Afghani Women's Boxing Federation, Hope of Mother, and a Desire to Give
Mark Connor August 15, 2009 March 16, 2016 Literacy & Education
Tareq Azim has learned to apply the basics of success from one area in his life to another, fulfilling a responsibility he accepts to represent himself, his family, and their country of origin in a dignified manner. He does so through the exercise of his talents in boxing and other combat sports, as well as in social and political activism aimed at uniting, serving, and empowering the people of Afghanistan. His most unique contribution to growing and strengthening the nation comes from his establishment in 2007 of the Afghani Women's Boxing Federation.
Azim explains that he started the Afghani Women's Boxing Federation in 2007 because the world wants Afghanistan to stand on its own two feet. "Well how do you expect it to stand on its own two feet," he asks, "if it's a male dominated society and women have nothing to say? Women have to be the second foot." Strengthening that foot and balancing the national posture are an end result of building relationships, he says, and now that the process has begun it will most likely perpetuate itself as the program continues.
"What I did is I united with the people of Afghanistan," says Azim; "the supposed warlords and some of the gangsters and some people who are extremists, and supposedly some of the people who are for women's oppression like the Taliban—and I connected with people from every single one of these groups about my mission of wanting to start the Afghan Women's Boxing Federation and why. . . I introduced the most male dominated activity in the world, which is Boxing, Combat Sports, to women. And I challenged the women, I said, 'You want to be treated and respected like a man? Well come learn how to fight like a man. Make a stance at the world; show these people that you're not scared; you'll stand up to anything. If they're standing up to getting punched in the face by each other, they're going to stand up to anything."
Azim was born in Germany in 1982, the country to which his parents fled from the Soviet communist occupation of Afghanistan and the disappearance of his maternal grandfather as a prisoner of war in 1978. Azim explains that his grandfather, General Shaw Wali who was a fighter pilot in the Afghani Air Force, always told his mother that if she had a son his name would be Tareq. Knowledge of this family story seals a bond Tareq Azim has with the Grandfather he never met, and it motivates his continued work through boxing and Mixed Martial Arts, as well as his support of Hope of Mother, the nonprofit he co-founded with his own Mother, Mina Wali, in 2004. The organization, found on line at www.hopeofmother.org, assists Afghani people through three other projects besides the Afghani Women's Boxing Federation, including the Shawl Patcha Academy of Education, a private coed school for young men and women in the largest Opium cultivated region of Nengrahar and the first school in the area to allow female students; Shawl Wali Khan Center for Orphans, a recreation center with tutoring, mentoring, and other activities, as well as protection from potential kidnapping into terrorist organizations; and Lily's Medical clinic, the first facility of its kind in a town called Surchroad Village.
Azim and his family immigrated to San Francisco, CA shortly after his birth, and in 2004 he graduated with Bachelors Degrees in Environmental Science and Agribusiness from Fresno State University. Azim, who now stands at 6'-2" and caries a weight of 185 pounds, explains that he compiled a total record of 16 and 2 as an amateur boxer, and he has a Professional Kickboxing record of 6 and 1. A close friend who helped with his amateur boxing training took him to the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, run by former Lightweight contender and trainer of 23 World Champions, Freddie Roach. At Roach's gym Azim was paired with veteran trainer Juan Carlos Martinez, also known as "Panda". He enjoyed training under Panda, and in the gym of champions he developed his competitive edge and also learned to teach and train others. As a kick boxer and mixed martial artist he eventually secured work as a trainer at Fairtex Muy Thai in San Francisco. He currently trains a number of successful professional Mixed Martial Artists, and he travels every third week back to Los Angeles in order to train at Wild Card. Fairtex is listed as a sponsor on the Hope of Mother web page, and Azim says he received tremendous support from both them and Wild Card in establishing the Afghani Women's Boxing Program. He credits Fairtex with providing the majority of necessary equipment and apparel for the program's initial success, and Freddie Roach, Juan Carlos "Panda" Martinez and everyone at Wild Card for the skills and confidence to initiate it.
"If it wasn't for wild Card I would never have been a good boxer, I wouldn't be sponsored by Fairtex," he said. "I wouldn't have that avenue, you know, so I give Wild Card all the credit in the world because they developed my hunger and desire as a good boxer, and I especially credit Juan Carlos 'Panda' Martinez."
While training as an amateur at Wild Card Azim was hoping to make the Afghan Olympic team, but an injury halted progress towards that goal. So he adapted his ambitions and channeled them into incorporating boxing into other forms of combat sport, as well as to directing his energy into Hope of Mother projects.
Hope of Mother has scheduled a fundraising gala in San Francisco for 8:00 p.m. Wednesday, August 26 at Ruby Skye. Tickets are $100, and attire is Cocktail. Entertainment will be provided by DJ Amplive of ZION I with Special Guests and San Francisco celebrity entertainment, DJ Momentum, local and national leaders, and a Surprise Guest as Master of Ceremonies.
"We're looking to grow bigger and stronger, of course," Azim says. "That's why I keep fighting and staying in the limelight of the fighting arts, because of the media attention and support that I can attract people toward our programs and create awareness and show all athletes in the world that us athletes are extremely powerful if we just know how to use our power.

How Do You Know You're In Ketosis?
This Surprising Side Effect Of The Keto Diet Is Kinda Concerning TBH
😳 - by Isadora Baum
You're probably familiar with the high-fat, low-carb eating plan known as the ketogenic diet, or the keto diet for short. People are raving about its purported benefits, from maximizing weight loss to boosting muscle gain, and it's been promoted by celebrities like Kourtney Kardashian, Megan Fox, and LeBron James. The idea is that if you restrict your carb intake, your body will go into ketosis and burn your stored fats as fuel, leading to weight loss.
But as tempting as it might be to try a diet that ostensibly lets you eat as much bacon as you want, the keto diet comes with some brutal side effects, from bad breath to constipation. Another potential side effect of the keto diet? It'll get you super drunk, super fast.

Generally, speaking, your alcohol tolerance depends on several factors, like genetics, body weight, and hydration levels. But it's also affected by your diet, and when you're on a low-carb diet, you'll find yourself really feeling that booze a lot more than you usually do.
Depending on your perspective, this is either good news or bad news. On one hand, drinking on the keto diet can put you at risk of a nasty hangover or worse; on the other hand, spending less money at the bar to get the same buzz is definitely a plus. Either way, here's why this happens — and here's how to avoid making yourself sick.
So why does the keto diet get you so damn drunk?
Basically, your body is fueled by energy that comes primarily from glucose, which is stored in the body as glycogen. The idea behind the keto diet is that if you cut carbs, your body depletes its glycogen stores, so it has no other choice but to burn fat, which in turn leads to you losing weight.
"When you've eaten a lot of carbs and your glycogen stores are filled, the rate at which you get drunk usually slows down," says Dr. Josh Axe, D.N.M., C.N.S., D.C., founder of Ancient Nutrition and DrAxe.com. "This is because there are more substances in your bloodstream and body that are capable of absorbing alcohol." In fact, some studies have found that eating high carbohydrate meals reduces blood alcohol content for up to 2 hours after drinking. (That's why you might feel like you need an extra glass of vino to get a buzz after a large pasta dinner.)
But when your body is in ketosis, you don't have much glycogen present in your bloodstream. Alcohol is rapidly sent to your liver and converted to acetaldehyde to be metabolized faster, so you'll probably feel more intoxicated more quickly. Even if you eat beforehand, "a high-protein meal does not have as much of a significant effect [at slowing down intoxication]," says Axe. The end result: you get drunk faster, which in turn leads to a nasty hangover.
I want to try the Keto Diet. How do I avoid getting wasted?
Drunk Wine Cooler GIF - Find & Share on GIPHY
While there may be some obvious financial benefits to having a lower booze tolerance, you actually have to be pretty careful when drinking on the keto diet. So while the best way to avoid getting too drunk is to limit your alcohol intake or avoid drinking altogether, if you must drink, here are a few ways to prevent getting too loaded at the office Fourth of July barbecue.
Be sure to not drink on an empty stomach, says Seattle-based registered dietitian, Ginger Hultin, MS, RDN, CSO. "Keto or non-keto, there is evidence that, when alcohol is consumed with a meal, blood concentrations of alcohol may not reach a quarter of those achieved on an empty stomach," she says. Have a meal that includes lots of low-carb fruit and veggies, such as a keto quiche with eggs and bell peppers.
As for the booze, if you follow a low-carb or keto diet, you'll want to avoid beer and sugary drinks, which tend to be packed with carbs. "Drink either hard liquor (such as with lemon juice and seltzer water) or red wine that is not very sweet," Axe says. If you prefer white wine, go with a bottle that's drier and less sweet, and avoid soda and fruit-based mixed drinks. "Sugar is a form of carbohydrate and will take the body out of ketosis," explains Hultin.
You'll also want to stay hydrated by alternating water with alcohol. (A glass of water per drink is usually a good rule of thumb.) It also goes without saying that you should "slow down the rate at which you're drinking; aim to have only about 1 drink per hour is possible," Axe says.
Bottom line: if you want to try getting lit on the keto diet, by all means, go ahead. Just slow down, be careful, and try to avoid ruining your diet by going to Maccas in the morning.

Wisteria Tea Room & Cafe putting unique spin on official state dessert
A Fort Myers chef shows us how they are putting a unique spin on a timeless classic- strawberry shortcake.
By: Calvin Lewis
FORT MYERS, Fla. — July 1 means a set of new laws in the Sunshine State.
One you may be sweet on is the new official dessert- strawberry shortcake. So we caught up with a Fort Myers chef and they showed us how they are putting a unique spin on a timeless classic.
"It's an experience. This isn't like your burgers and fries place."
Tucked away within the trees on Second Street, you'll find an ode to an English tradition inside the Wisteria Tea Room & Cafe. Magic of the food variety.
"We are an English-style tea room," says Matt Devisme, Chef and Owner of Wisteria Tea Room. "We're known for afternoon tea and so we really pride ourselves in that. It's kind of an experience place, not your typical restaurant where you can just walk in. It's a great date place and you come in, sit and talk and enjoy your time with whoever you're with."
When you're not being captivated by the interior of the tea room it's the desserts that steal your eye. All hand-crafted in-house.
"We use strawberries a lot here, number one, and then we have kind of a play on a strawberry shortcake here," says Devisme. "We call it strawberries and scones and it's delicious. It's one of my favorite desserts for sure."
Fitting for the newly crowned, official state dessert of Florida. Put together with their own spin, of course, using their famous scones.
"We do like a vanilla bean scone that we make in-house- we make everything here in the house. We do it with our chantilly cream and fresh strawberries that we slice up. It's a take on a classic berries and cream and strawberry shortcake."
Those at the tea room pride themselves on their captivating desserts. Aside from taste, the experience is all about the presentation.
"At the bottom, there are savory tea sandwich samples, in the middle of that tower there's a scone, and then at the top, there are mini desserts that come with afternoon tea. Then there are hot pots of tea on the table that you would enjoy with whoever you're with."
And if the Wisteria Tea Room didn't already use enough strawberries for their mesmerizing confections, you can expect to see a whole lot more very soon.
"Oh yeah, absolutely," says Devisme. "Absolutely. I think that's awesome, yeah."

Rialto's Christmas concert to feature Joliet organist
By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLANDEmailFollow
Photo provided
Beverly Holt will play the Barton Grande Theatre Pipe Organ at the Rialto Square Theatre on Nov. 25 as part of the "A Very Rialto Christmas...Making Merry Music" concert.
The "A Very Rialto Christmas...Making Merry Music" show at 7 p.m. on Nov. 25 will feature Joliet-area organist Beverly Holt on the Rialto's m the Barton Grande Theatre Pipe Organ.
It's the not the first time Holt has played that organ. But it's always memorable.
"First of all, even the look of it is very impressive," Holt said. "It's a theater organ and very few places have an organ like that, the size of it. "
Also, the xylophone and percussion sounds the organ makes are from real instruments.
"It's not just an electric organ that duplicates what the sound should be," Holt said. "It's the real instruments that are being played."
In the early 2000s, Holt served as music director for John Barrowman's cabaret shows, with performances in the Lincoln Center in New York and the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., Holt said.
"We performed in Belgium," Holt said. "We performed in England for Prince Charles and Camilla in their home. We did private parties in Ne York. We played one party where Stephen Sondheim was in attendance."
Holt recently retired as the director of music and liturgy at Holy Family Catholic Church in Shorewood.
Ironically, it was Santa Claus who began Holt's love for the organ.
"I started taking lessons at 5," Holt said. "Santa Claus had brought me a little toy piano. My mom used to play 45s on the record player and I would go over to the little toy piano and play what I heard on the record. A few people heard me do that and told my parents they felt I had talent and should start lessons."
By 7, Holt was taking private lessons. By 13 she was a church organist at First Lutheran Church in Joliet. By 15, she was teaching lessons, first at a studio in Hillcrest shopping center and later at the Lyon-Healy Music store.
Holt later also became the organist at the Universalist Unitarian church. She continued to study through high school and beyond. Twenty-five years ago, Holt started working with Nicholas Thomas, concert chorale and chamber singers ensemble director at Moraine Valley Community College, which continues to this day.
She's also worked at Joliet West High School as a full-time accompanist and was the organist at Grace United Methodist Church and Messiah Lutheran Church.
Even though Holt has retired from Holy Family, she's not retired from playing organ. Hold tried describing the feeling when she plays, such as "an adrenalin rush" and "getting in the zone."
But like many artists, Holt found it difficult to describe the appeal of playing organ.
"It's who I am," Holt said. "I think being a musician is something that's born in you. I don't think you choose it necessarily. I think it chooses you."
Holt does not understand why organ is less popular today than in the past. But she does feel playing the organ is a "dying art."
"Few homes have organs in them anymore," Holt said. "And there are few organ teachers."
Goal: "I think it's to bring joy to people through the gift of music. I play for a lot of funerals. If I can give families comfort at one of their most difficult times in their life, then it's a blessing to me to help them through that difficult time."
Inspiration: "I guess it's the hope that I continue to grow. Like I said before, It's who I am. It's what I love to do. I just thoroughly enjoy playing. It's a blessing. It's enjoyable. It makes me happy."
Words of wisdom: "Keep trying. Don't give up."
WHAT: ...."A Very Rialto Christmas...Making Merry Music"
WHEN: 7 p.m. Nov. 25. Pre-show is 5:30 p.m. with complimentary hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar.
WHERE: Rialto Square Theater, 102 N. Chicago St. Joliet

Lingerie summer trends that are here to stay
TNN / Jun 24, 2022, 22:03 (IST)
Bold colours have also made an impact on the lingerie runway. This is hardly surprising given that spring and summer months have long been linked with brighter tones. Many fashion gurus forecast the adoption of organic and pastel colours. The final result is that women are considerably more willing to experiment with distinct tones, which are frequently utilised to characterise their identities. While 'traditional' colours like white, beige and blacks remain popular, alternatives like pinks and blues will be a breath of fresh air for many wearers.

Berlin Hauptbahnhof (Berlin Hbh) is located in the heart of Berlin connecting many train stations located in the capital. Network system of train stations of Berlin was previously complicated and moving from one part of Berlin to another part of Germany could be not that easy.
It is also another positive effect of unification that after West and East Berlin could get rid of the Berlin Wall it started to be clear that the old network system of railways was not convenient and needed additional adjustments.
It was necessary to unify all existing railways and stations and try to be convenient. A new station appeared on the place where the previous Lehrter Bahnhof was situated. Sometimes you can hear both names. It normal for locals to remember old names of streets and significant buildings in the city.
So, Hauptbahnhof was opened on the May 26, 2006. From time to time some maintenance should be done on the station and connected to the station facilities but generally authorities and public are satisfied with the station, opposed to the situation with the new Berlin airport which all look forward to use. But it is still not clear when it will be opened.
As you could probably guess, Berlin Hauptbahnhof can be translated into English as a Central Station. Let's start using the German expression. It will help you to be more prepared, because when you come to Berlin and can get lost (in such a huge city most probable at least once) and if you ask locals: Where is the Central station? They will be wondering what you ask about. And if just ask about Hauptbahnhof, they will immediately understand you.
You should also note that Germans like the English language as they all learn it at school starting from the second grade but not many of them can really speak fluently. It is not that terrible like in Paris but still do not think that every person you meet can speak English.
Berlin Hauptbahnhof has a huge building 25m high having 5 floors. It is not only a station but also an excellent shopping center. Also good to remember that on Sundays shopping possibilities are limited in Berlin. And shops also do not work until late. But if you need something to buy you can always go to the station. In one of many shops you will find what you want.
If you think to travel to other destinations in Europe or in Germany you will most likely need to go to station to start your journey. I was surprised to learn that there are trains to Siberia starting from Berlin Hauptbahnhof. Such destinations as Novosibirsk and Astana are offered for travelers willing to discover more that Europe and Germany. If you want to perceive why Siberia is called huge and boundless, keep in mind that you can consider Hauptbahnhof as your starting point.
Tickets nowadays people buy online. You can check the Deutsche Bahn timetable and tickets to any destination you dream.
From Berlin Hauptbahnhof you can directly go to Berlin Schoenefeld airport. When another great dream of Berliners will be opened-Berlin Brandenburg airport it will have a good connection to the Hauptbahnhof.

A recent study by the EY consultancy revealed that the number of Italians who use OTT services has reached 19.1 million in June 2017 as compared to 16.2 million in September 2016. That's a growth of 18% in less than a year.
The number of Italian users who pay for OTT content amounts to 4.3 million. The remaining users (17.7 million) access free OTT content, mainly on YouTube, RaiPlay, Mediaset.it, DPlay and La7.it.
Among the paid OTT platforms, Netflix has 800,000 subscribers, followed by TIM Vision (Telecom Italia) with 600,000 subs, Infinity (Mediaset) with 300,000 and NOW (Sky Italia) with 250,000. Amazon Prime entered the Italian market in 2017 and is yet to make a mark.


The pear scents of the bouquet are very inviting. The palate entry is clean, ripe, fruity and keenly pear-like; at the midpalate the taste turns softly ripe and sweet. Finishes elegantly and with a last minute thrust of pear that's vivid, crisp and authentically pear-like. An outstanding flavoring job.


This is the Origin Agenda - a 'To Do List' - which will help keep us up to date on who is doing what in the near future.
Simply put, we at Origin tend to start things and don't finish them! In the coming year, we are aiming to accomplish some major things - a new main site, "The Xt Project", and a huge increase in membership and posting rate. This Agenda will help keep us on schedule and ensure that 2007 is forever known as the Year of OriginXt!
If you are working on something right now, or have something planned for the future, let us know! We will add it to the Agenda, and help keep you on schedule for completion.
If you are currently working on something on the list, it is a good idea to check this every week or two, and remind yourself of what needs to be done!
Most goal will be assigned to a specific member, usually an admin. However, there are the occasional 'Forum' and 'Staff' goals - these are ones which we will all have to work together on to achieve.
- The unveiling of the Xt Project (or Beta).
- Integration of Xt Project.
- Advertising of Xt Project.
So when exactly are we taking the XT project public?
Yeah, so have you got an ETA on that so I can add it to the agenda?
Updated info regarding the OMV.
Still looking for an ETA grand!

Community Action Teams Give Real Voice to a Community
September 3, 2019 // Taylor Kidd
At Community Builders, we empower communities who are faced with a variety of challenges and opportunities—but, we know this can't be done without an engaged and educated community. Our approach to assistance is heavily focused on local leadership for this reason—to creatively engage the public and build the strategic partnerships and leadership necessary for creating lasting change.
As part of that process, community leaders were assembled for our technical assistance project in Downtown Grand Junction (GJ) to form the Community Action Team (CAT). Composed of involved and passionate citizens from the community, the CAT was a significant resource in creating a Plan of Development for Downtown GJ. Looking to these individuals for insight, opinions, thoughtfulness, and passion, Community Builders and Downtown GJ frequently brought this group together to ensure a common vision and sustainable plan.
Whether these individuals were business owners or neighborhood advocates, each provided a unique perspective to the project. We asked a few of them to share their experience as a CAT member.
Colin St.Clair
Downtown Grand Junction Resident
Because community input matters to Downtown GJ and Community Builders, I was asked to participate in the process for an updated Downtown Plan of Development via the Community Action Team (CAT). The CAT is a diverse group of stakeholders organized to provide community feedback during the Downtown Plan process. The primary task of the CAT was to work towards creating a better Downtown. This seemed like a pretty tall order, as we think Downtown Grand Junction is pretty great, as is.
At my first CAT meeting, it became immediately apparent that both Downtown GJ and Community Builders valued the input of all community members. Community feedback was gathered and the evolving Downtown Plan adjusted accordingly. This was an all-hands-on-deck endeavor.
Whether ideas were presented by small business owners, developers, elected officials, or just residents like myself, it was clear that the organizers were not only listening and taking notes, but that the input was valued. In the coming months, it was exciting to see so many of those suggestions from the first meeting developed into something tangible. Those initial ideas now feel like attainable goals!
After participating in the CAT, we are even more excited about Downtown Grand Junction and its future. There is a positive energy here, and it's contagious. We are thrilled to be apart of it.
Megan Alfano
Downtown GJ Business Owner, Colorado Baby
Thanks to Downtown GJ and Community Builders, I had the privilege of working with the Community Action Team (CAT) for the past 9 months to contribute ideas toward a long-term vision for our local economic growth. The "Grand (Junction) Scheme" of the CAT is to build partnerships amongst downtown businesses owners, leaders, and citizens that don't just exist on paper, but drive the planning process with energy and enthusiasm. As a Main Street business owner, a downtown advocate, and a life-long Grand Junction-ite, I was honored to be selected to this task force as part of the Vibrant Together Project. To have a real voice in honing the place that my family and I live has been an eye-opening and humbling experience. Kudos to the Glenwood Springs-based Community Builders group for guiding the process smoothly and for listening to us rather than pushing an outside agenda.
My favorite CAT meeting included a collaborative group activity where participants were able to brainstorm ideas for several topics of interest, such as, walkability, connectivity, and creative ways to enhance the aesthetics and accessibility of our business alleyways. After small-group discussion, we distilled and prioritized the ideas according to long-term vs. short-term feasibility and impact, which drove home the point that Grand Junction is most lively and bright when we speak up and listen together. We are now standing on the brink of a new chapter and I am excited that my friends, neighbors, and I had the opportunity to participate in this process through public meetings, surveys, and the CAT.

Chairman of the Board of Directors, Homeward Bound of the Grand Valley
As someone who grew up in Grand Junction, downtown has always been a part of my life. What happens to downtown has a major effect on how we maintain the personality of the city we love. That's why I was excited to be a part of the [CAT] group working with Downtown GJ and Community Builders—to help create a new plan for the future of Downtown. We need to maintain our city's personality, take advantage of our weather and outdoor focus, and connect downtown to the Riverfront at Las Colonias. We can make Downtown even more of a destination and a place to be, and we can make it a great place to live and work, as well.

If the exchange rate is not flexible enough, it will be difficult for imports and exports to compete
VCN - According to experts, the State Bank's decision to adjust the spot exchange rate band between USD and VND from ±3% to ±5% is consistent with the goal of stabilizing the foreign exchange market and controlling inflation.
The SBV has applied many measures to stabilize the exchange rate. Source: Internet.
The exchange rate has increased by 7% since the beginning of the year
On October 17, the SBV decided to adjust the exchange rate band to ±5%, thereby widening the gap between the floor exchange rate and the ceiling rate listed at commercial banks.
This movement has led to a sharp increase in buying and selling rates at commercial banks compared to the last session of last week.
Accordingly, the central exchange rate announced by the SBV on October 18 was at 23,637 VND/USD, up to 51 VND compared to October 17. With a margin of ±5% being applied, the ceiling rate applied by banks is 24,818 VND/USD and the floor rate is 22,455 VND/USD.
At commercial banks, the exchange rate is listed around 24,130-24,230 VND/USD on the buying side, 24,190-24,500 VND/USD on the selling side. This price has increased by about 200-300 VND per USD in both buying and selling directions compared to the 14/10 session.
Thus, the exchange rate at commercial banks has exceeded 24,000 VND/USD, the exchange rate on the free market has also exceeded 24,500 VND/USD, resulting in the USD exchange rate at commercial banks increasing by 6-7%.
However, before the SBV decided to increase the exchange rate band, the exchange rate between VND and USD was under a lot of pressure when the SBV implemented liquidity injection measures at a ceiling rate of 3% compared to the central rate. According to the money market report, bonds of SSI Securities Company, the interbank exchange rate increased beyond 24,000 VND/USD, much higher than the selling rate at the SBV's Exchange and the State Bank had to continue intervention through the sale of foreign currency from the foreign exchange reserve, but to a relatively limited extent.
Therefore, experts all said that it is necessary for the SBV to widen the spot exchange rate band between USD and VND to 5% for the first time in nearly 10 years, in order to accommodate strong and continuously increasing fluctuations of the USD/VND exchange rate.
Increase competitiveness for import and export
Economic expert Assoc.Prof.Dr. Dinh Trong Thinh (Academy of Finance) said that high inflation has caused many central banks around the world to raise interest rates and raise the value of currencies to fight inflation.
In particular, the US Federal Reserve (Fed) has raised interest rates 5 times since the beginning of the year with a total increase of 3%, causing the USD index to reach the peak of more than 20 years, sometimes surpassing the level of 114 points in recent times. However, in the context of many currencies depreciating strongly, the pressure on VND is very great, but thanks to the stabilization of the macroeconomy and inflation, the VND depreciates relatively little against the USD and remains the most stable compared to the USD.
According to Mr. Thinh, in order to stabilize the foreign exchange market, the SBV used many measures such as selling USD interventions and raising the operating interest rate but at a slight margin of only 1%. Therefore, the expansion of the exchange rate band by the State Bank to keep the exchange rate stable and create conditions for commercial banks to buy and sell USD at a new price range, reducing the difference with the free market, thereby reducing the demand for USD.
Similarly, economist Dr. Le Xuan Nghia also said that it is difficult for the State Bank to adjust the value of the currency. In order to limit the sale of foreign currencies to the market, it is necessary to balance supply and demand. Moreover, under pressure from the current account, although our country's trade balance is still in relative surplus, the balance of services has a large deficit, so the State Bank is forced to apply the central exchange rate adjustment.
"Managing the financial and monetary markets is a matter of controlling interest rates and exchange rates. Increasing interest rates or widening the exchange rate band must consider the reality from the market, to adjust accordingly," Assoc.Prof.Dr. Dinh Trong Thinh said.
However, with the sharp increase of the exchange rate as above, there will be some impact on import and export activities. In theory, an increase in the exchange rate will benefit exporters and negatively affect importers. Moreover, businesses that borrow capital in foreign currencies will also be affected when interest expenses and exchange rate losses may increase.
But according to businesses, compared to many countries, the exchange rate in Vietnam has low volatility in the region, the whole country still maintains a trade surplus, so the expansion of the exchange rate band and exchange rate movements is not too big of an impact right now.
According to Dr. Vo Tri Thanh, Director of the Institute for Brand Strategy and Competition, the devaluation of the dong will have certain effects on the economy, especially inflation and interest rates. With exports, if the exchange rate is not flexible enough, it is also difficult to compete, Vietnam's exports rely heavily on imports, so if the VND depreciates a lot, exports will not necessarily benefit.
Therefore, the current monetary policy management is based on calculations that affect many aspects of inflation, interest rates, import and export, etc., insofar as the relative macro stability is maintained, supporting exports without having too negative an impact on imports and inflation.
With the above issues, the SBV has also repeatedly affirmed that it will continue to closely monitor market developments, coordinate monetary policy tools, and be ready to sell foreign currency interventions to stabilize the market.

exchange rate import and export commercial banks foreign currency
Failure to keep the exchange rate will cause difficulties for import and export
VCN - The USD/VND exchange rate has increased by about 3.81% compared to the end of 2021, but the devaluation of VND against USD is lower than that of other currencies in the world.
Binh Duong Customs investigates businesses committing violations on import and export of cashew
VCN - Binh Duong Customs Department has been implementing many measures to improve the management efficiency of cashew import and export activities in the province. Thereby, many violations were detected and handled by the unit on time.
Exchange rate is no longer a concern
VCN - The current context sets requirements for each group of enterprises in hedging against exchange rate risks, especially in the early period of 2023. However, Vietnamese enterprises can "remain confident" because the State Bank (SBV) has always been steadfast in ensuring exchange rate stability.

Image: From our archives 1983
The last editor of respected SA newspaper The Rand Daily Mail, Rex Gibson, has died, his family said on Tuesday.
"Our beloved father died peacefully last night with all his daughters and his partner, Pat, by his side. What a grand life he lived," his daughter, Kerry, shared on Facebook.
Memorial details will follow for the veteran journalist turned author.
Gibson, born in August 1931, had three children, Gail, Kerry and Robyn.
After retiring from journalism in 1992, he moved to Hermanus and published a memoir, which provided his perspective of The RDM spanning the late 1950s to the closure of the newspaper in 1985.
He was at the coal face of the apartheid era's most vicious censorship laws, the Financial Mail reported in 2010. "He remains one of the few editors to have been charged under the infamous Official Secrets Act, and also defended himself and his paper against the much rarer charge of criminal defamation," the article stated.
He was also editor of the Sunday Express and deputy editor of The Star.

Q: How to convert 4 vales of modbus registers (each 16 bit) to a double float in C? How to convert 4 vales of modbus registers (each 16 bit) to a double float in C?
That's my problem. How can i solve this in C?


It never ceases to amaze me the endless variety of form and colour of the small nature at our feet. It's everywhere to be seen at different times and yet so few see it.
This creature was introduced to Aus by industry in '37 to combat the sugar cane beetles but since it doesn't fly it didn't do a very good job. It has done a very good job eating or killing everything else though. It has its own integrity.
This is a rare instance when the wasp actually stops long enough for a few shots. The relative cold probably had something to do with it. Then a car backfired in the distance and she was gone.
Another of nature's beauties, she was sheltering from the wind and rain on a leaf near the ground and stayed long enough for me to get a few shots, turning this way and that so I could get a few different angles. Thank you fly.

Jeff Coulter's three books to date (Coulter (1973b, 1979b, 1983)) are considered chronologically, in order (a) to explicate his reading of Wittgenstein and ethnomethodology, (b) to give a preliminary appreciation of the distinctive linguistic sociology of mind which this reading makes possible, and (c) to assess Coulter's work for its seminal importance vis-à-vis a possible political linguistics.


In the world of baking there is one craft that gives me huge satisfaction + that is bread making. The process from beginning to end demands such precision that one lazy move on your part + it all goes belly up.
The chemistry alone is fascinating such as the relationship between the yeast + salt, it's like an old fashioned disco boys on one side girls on the other with the dance floor in between. HA funny but its true with Paul Hollywoods recipes for bread he explicitly says in your bowl add the yeast on one side and the salt on the other as the salt will effect the yeast and make it lazy I suppose.
So for this cob recipe I literally read it and read it again followed it to the letter, when mr Hollywood tells you to knead the dough for 5-10 minutes by god you knead that dough for 5-10 minutes I think I kneaded it for a good 10 minutes with the fear of failing.
Long story short this is a super beginners bread and once followed properly is a smashing bread to make over and over.
Firstly in a bowl I popped in the flour + then sprinkled the salt in one side + the yeast on the other. Pour most of the water in on the flour + add the soft butter, next combine them all together as your mixing add the remaining water drop by drop.
Keep combining until the inside of your bowl becomes clean.
Once 10 minutes is up you will end up with is silky springy dough mr Hollywood would be proud of. For the cob you need to transform this into a sphere do this by tucking the dough under itself whist constantly swiveling it.
