Assumption: The assumption to test is that there is a product, similar to the Buka stove in either price, segment, or similar factors that the SoCon teams could use to test their payment plan solution on.
Assumptions related to this for the purpose of this experiment include the assumption that individuals in surrounding Sigatoka villages will have an idea of products that they have tried to either obtain and couldn't because they were too expensive, or applied for store credit and were rejected.
We are measuring the percentage of people in surrounding Sigatoka villages whom identify a product or store that they have had trouble purchasing for the above reasons stated in the assumption. This will be conducted with 30 people.
Green Light - Green light would be to investigate the proposed stores/products in surrounding Sigatoka areas as a channel for SoCon to operate.
Success point - If 60% of people interviewed identify a product/store that they could not obtain something from, with the issue stemming from lack of access to finance.
Orange Light- Iterate survey build and explanation of SoCon, visit different villages, etc.
Failure Point - if there is less than 30% of people that identify with the above assumption.
Red Light - Failure protocol would be to look into different avenues for finding similar products to the Buka stove that could be used for payment plans.
3. Conduct village visits and survey villagers.
4. Analyse data and move to next steps.
Following from Tink's point, why are we focusing just on Buka Stove alternatives? Maybe taking a step back and researching loans that are given/requested and what they are for (and how much) is a better way to assess the market to know where we can offer services outside of fuel?

Periodontal disease affects the supporting structures of the teeth, the gingivae, the periodontal ligament and the alveolar bone. In addition, the intimate anatomical relationship between the cementum covering the root of the tooth and the periodontal ligament accounts for the cementum being included as a supporting structure and therefore being affected by periodontal disease.
Fillings or crowns which have an overhanging edge at their cervical margin.
Filling or crowns with loose contact points.
The diagnosis of periodontal disease is based on the medical history, appearance and recession of gums, depth of gingival pockets, amount of bone loss, tooth mobility and the distribution of plaque.
It's relatively easy to prevent gum disease with good dental hygiene habits at home. Brush your teeth for two minutes, twice a day, floss daily, and visit your dentist twice each year for preventive attention. Quitting tobacco and maintaining a balanced, nutritious diet will also help you to enjoy good gum health for years to come.
If you or someone in your family is suffering from the symptoms of gum disease, please do not hesitate to call us today to schedule an appointment with one of our dentists.


Hey everyone I am Lofn Dabria and writing two novels for my upcoming release debut. I am excited and almost finished one right now. I have another I am working on after this one and glad to be working on novels as a whole. I will keep you updated.

Q: Delete object from an entity with a OneToMany relationship between both using JPA in Spring Boot Good afternoon, I am working with a REST API in which I have a playlist that has many songs, for which I am using JPA and the benefits that allow me to make the relationships between the two. Now, if I want to delete a song already added to the PlayList, I can't do it, I show you my classes below
Class PlayList
@Entity
@Table(name = "PLAY_LIST")
public class PlayList {

    @JsonIgnore
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    @Column(name = "ID")
    private Long id;

    //@JsonView(View.Get.class)
    @Column(name="name")
    private String name;

    //@JsonView(View.Get.class)
    @Column(name="description")
    private String description;

    //@JsonView(View.Get.class)
    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, fetch = FetchType.LAZY, orphanRemoval = true, mappedBy = "playList")
    private List<Song> songs = new ArrayList<>();

    @Transient
    public void addSong(Song song) {
        song.setPlayList(this);
        songs.add(song);
    }

    @Transient
    public void removeSong(Song song) {
        songs.remove(song);
    }

    public Long getId() {
        return this.id;
    }

    public void setId(Long id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return this.name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getDescription() {
        return this.description;
    }

    public void setDescription(String description) {
        this.description = description;
    }

    public List<Song> getSongs() {
        return this.songs;
    }

    public void setSongs(List<Song> songs) {
        this.songs = songs;
    }

}

Here I have the methods of adding songs and removing, however, removing is not working for me.
Class Song
Entity
@Table(name = "SONG")
public class Song{

    @JsonIgnore

    private PlayList playList;

    public Long getId() {
        return this.id;
    }

    public void setId(Long id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getTitle() {
        return this.title;
    }

    public void setTitle(String title) {
        this.title = title;
    }

    public String getArtist() {
        return this.artist;
    }

    public void setArtist(String artist) {
        this.artist = artist;
    }

    public String getAlbum() {
        return this.album;
    }

    public void setAlbum(String album) {
        this.album = album;
    }

    public int getYear() {
        return this.year;
    }

    public void setYear(int year) {
        this.year = year;
    }

    public PlayList getPlayList() {
        return this.playList;
    }

    public void setPlayList(PlayList playList) {
        this.playList = playList;
    }

}

My class Controller
@RestController
@RequestMapping("playlist")
public class PlayListController {

   @Autowired
   private PlayListService playListService;

   @Autowired
   private SongRepository songRepository;

   // Get playlist by id with songs belongs that playlist

   @GetMapping("/get/{id}")
   public Optional<PlayList> getPlayListByID(@PathVariable(value = "id") Long id) {

      Optional<PlayList> playList = playListService.getById(id);
      return playList;
   }

   @PostMapping("/create")
   public PlayList createPlayList(@RequestBody PlayListDTO playListDTO) {

      PlayList playList = new PlayList();

      playList.setName(playListDTO.getName());
      playList.setDescription(playListDTO.getDescription());
      playList.setSongs(new ArrayList<>());

      for (int x=0; x<playListDTO.getSongs().size(); x++) {

         Song songs=new Song();
         songs.setTitle(playListDTO.getSongs().get(x).getTitle());
         songs.setArtist(playListDTO.getSongs().get(x).getArtist());
         songs.setAlbum(playListDTO.getSongs().get(x).getAlbum());
         songs.setYear(playListDTO.getSongs().get(x).getYear());
         playList.addSong(songs);

      }
        return playListService.savePlayList(playList);
     }
   @PutMapping("/update/{id}")
   public PlayList updatePlayList(@PathVariable(value = "id") Long id,@RequestBody Song song){

      PlayList playList = playListService.getById(id).get();
      song.setPlayList(playList);
      playList.getSongs().add(song);
      playListService.savePlayList(playList);
      return playList;
   }

   @DeleteMapping("/delete/{id}")
   public PlayList deletePlayList(@PathVariable(value = "id") Long id,@RequestBody Song song){
      PlayList playList =playListService.getById(id).get();
      System.out.println(playList.getSongs());
      playList.removeSong(song);
      System.out.println(playList.getSongs());
      return playList;
   }

}

So I am storing the Playlist with its songs, method POST
{
    "name": "Lista 1",
    "description": "Lista de reproduccion 2020 spotify",
    "songs": [
        {
            "title": "Tan Enamorados",
            "artist": "CNCO",
            "album": "Tan Enamorados",
            "year": 2020
        },
        {
            "title": "Hawai",
            "artist": "Maluma",
            "album": "PAPI JUANCHO",
            "year": 2020
        }
    ]
}

Now, to eliminate I am passing the id of the PlayList and the Request of the song (object without the id of the song that is automatically created in BD), however, I cannot eliminate the song from the PlayList, and at the logs level it returns this doing a print in console
Example, I want to delete the following song:

however it is not removed and it returns the same list to me
Am I missing something to be able to delete a song without having to delete the playlist?

A: It is not a very good idea to remove a song using all the songs list in the PlayList.
There is not a join table for @OneToMany association. So we can delete a song much simpler, using SONG table (this is the main reason why a join table for @OneToMany is not convienent).
You need a song id for that and you need to use CrudRepository.deleteById() method.
You can use the full combination (title, artist, album, year) for that, but much simpler to add a song id to JSON.
Better to use this endpoint URL to delete a song
/{playListId}/songs/{songId}
You don't need delete part in the URL, you already use DELETE HTTP method.
Why your code doesn't work

*

*Incorrect using delete method from the list

@Transient
public void removeSong(Song song) {
    songs.remove(song);
}

songs.remove() can't find song in the list, List.remove() finds a song by a reference. It needs to have an open persistent context and get a song from it to have an ability to find it in the list.

*Not using a transaction (opened persistent context) to let Hibernate know that a song was deleted and Hibernate has to update the database.

So a valid scenario
start @Transactional
  Spring starts a database transaction
  Spring opens a persistent context
  load PlayList
  load a song from the database (using id or other song attributes)
  delete a song from PlayList songs (or delete a song from PlayList songs using id)
end @Transactional

Hibernate flushes changes and delete a song in the database
persistent context is closed
database transaction is committed

Vladislav Gavrikov
Photo courtesy of KHL.ru
Potential top-four NHL defensive blueliner whose peripheral contributions may not fully translate to fantasy leagues.
Country RUS
Position D
Date of Birth November 21, 1995
Drafted 2015 Round 6; Overall: 159
November 2019 – The stay-at-home defenseman picked up his first NHL goal, making him the third Russian defender in Blue Jackets history to tally. Currently sitting with just two points on the year, the 2015 fifth-round-pick is more known for his defensive play and has racked up 24 hits and 21 shot blocks in 18 games. The 23-year-old looks to have solidified his role in the lineup and could be used for some peripheral stats in deeper leagues, but that is about it. Dave Hall
October 2019 – Gavrikov drew into the lineup to make his NHL regular-season debut this season. In two games, the 6'3 shutdown defenceman has posted three hits, two blocks to go along with a -2 rating. Although offense may not be the name of his game, Gavrikov has showcased smooth skating and the ability to break up plays. His long reach should also be a nice welcome to their penalty kill. However, given the team's d-core, it could take some time for him to solidify a regular top-6 role. Unless the team finds themselves with injury troubles, the sixth-rounder could see himself in and out of the lineup. Dave Hall
May 2019 – Gavrikov made his NHL debut with the Blue Jackets in game five of the Eastern Conference Semi-Final. As expected, he was held scoreless and played a modest 14 minutes which was fourth-most among Blue Jackets' defensemen. Frank Pellegrini
April 2019 – After Gavrikov signed a two-year entry-level contract, Blue Jackets' GM Jarmo Kekalainen offered his belief that the blueliner is "an outstanding defenseman who excels at both ends of the ice". He added that the Blue Jackets are excited about his future. The 2015 sixth-rounder has spent the last six seasons in the KHL. The signing indicates that Gavrikov may be headed to North American for a debut in the AHL next season. Frank Pellegrini
April 2019 – At the completion of his KHL campaign, 23-year-old Vladdy Gavrikov signed an entry-level deal with Columbus. The left-shot defender's fourth full KHL season yielded a career-high 20 points in 55 regular season games. The 2015 sixth-rounder is considered a shutdown defender who brings physicality and some decent transition work. He is eligible to join the Blue Jackets in during postseason play. Cam Robinson
November 2018 – Gavrikov is in his second season with St. Petersburg SKA of the KHL and has one more year remaining on his contract. As a result, it is quite possible that he debuts with the Blue Jackets in 2019-2020. According to GM Jarmo Kekalainen, Gavrikov "could play on our team right now". He is a stay at home type of defender who does not join the rush often. With that, it may be best to steer clear of him for fantasy production when he makes his way to the NHL. Frank Pellegrini
January 2018 – In the midst of a solid year for SKA St. Petersburg (five goals, nine assists and a plus-20), Gavrikov will participate in the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympic Games under the flag of "Organized Athletes of Russia" as Team Russia is barred from participation. Ironically, with a thinner lineup than Russia likely would have fielded, Gavrikov has an opportunity to stand out as a top defender garnering plenty of ice time on the OAR squad. Kevin Wickersham
November 2017 – Gavrikov has earned a good amount of ice time in this, his first campaign with SKA St. Petersburg. As a result he's picked up a goal and seven assists in 28 contests with a tidy plus-seven, and was named to Team Russia for this week's Karjala Cup Tournament in Finland. Kevin Wickersham
September 2017 – Columbus selected this sizable Russian defenseman in round six of the 2015 draft but he's yet to play for or sign with a North American squad. After a recent trade to SKA St. Petersburg, and subsequent two-year deal, Gavrikov chose to remain in the KHL and play in the upcoming Winter Olympics which he would not be able to do under an NHL deal. Should he want to, Gavrikov looks to be developing into a rock-solid and fearless NHL shutdown defenseman skilled at disrupting passing lanes, maintaining excellent gap control, and getting the puck out of the zone quickly while taking care of the physical stuff for an offensive pairing. He utilizes his size well to deliver crushing hits and minimize threats in front of his net. Blessed with much lower body strength, Gavrikov is impressively fast and nimble considering his large frame. He excels at blocking shots – not so much for than taking them. Look to him as a potential future source of some peripherals, but with just six goals and nine assists in 106 KHL contests don't count Gavrikov as a points-only pool stalwart. He should provide ample hits and blocks, but with just 60 PIM during that span his multi-category ceiling may be slightly limited. Kevin Wickersham

Q: After setting up BasePage.vb and creating a session, I have a strange query string in my URL I was guided by Nuux who was kind enough to help me through the intricate process of localizing my website, and then giving the client the option to manually select their own language by clicking a flag and it lasts for their entire time/session they're on the website.  My website is Visual Studio 2010 / vb / net 4.0.
In doing so, I created a class, BasePage.vb.  ALL of my pages are set to inherit: BasePage in their code behind.  Here's a line of interest from BasePage.vb:
              'retrieve culture information from session
        Dim culture__1 As String = Convert.ToString(Session([Global].SESSION_KEY_CULTURE))

Everything functions great, and Nuux was a perfect help.  I have 1 remaining issue.  When I go to my homepage (or any page), there's a strange query string in there.  I think it's that line in BasePage.vb, more than something on a page's code behind, because it happens even if I open a browser, bypass the homepage by going directly to mydomain/about.aspx.  For instance, just go to the about page and this shows up:
  mydomain.com/(S(tp5bafoygn0ahwdp1mh0x4v5))/about.aspx

But the languages work great and last the entire session!  What is the (S(tp5bafoygn0ahwdp1mh0x4v5)) ?  Should I get rid of it, and if so, how would I go about doing this?  Thank you!

A: That is called a cookieless session identifier.
Change
<sessionState cookieless="true" />

to
<sessionState cookieless="false" />

In your web.config. Mind you, if you intentionally want a cookieless session (which I would not bother with these days), then the behavior is normal.

« Former Arsenal player John Barnwell talks about his years at Highbury
October 1934: Arsenal finally throw off the North London curse »
November 1934: vying for the top of the league, and the Battle of Highbury
Arsenal had suffered a defeat to Sunderland at the end of October which had taken some commentators by surprise, and as a result of this, and the latest Stoke City win, Stoke had risen to the highly unlikely position of top of the league – not least because of the remarkable abilities of one of their players – Stanley Matthews.
1 Stoke City 12 8 1 3 28 15 1.87 17
2 Arsenal 12 6 4 2 36 16 2.25 16
3 Sunderland 12 6 4 2 21 11 1.91 16
4 Grimsby Town 12 6 3 3 23 13 1.77 15
5 Derby County 12 7 1 4 21 14 1.50 15
6 Everton 12 6 3 3 25 20 1.25 15
7 Manchester City 12 6 2 4 25 20 1.25 14
8 Sheffield Wednesday 12 5 3 4 22 20 1.10 13
9 Preston North End 12 5 3 4 15 18 0.83 13
10 Blackburn Rovers 12 4 4 4 14 17 0.82 12
Arsenal now entered November with the normal four saturday afternoon league games to play, as well as two other matches: the annual game against Racing Club de Paris away on 18 November and the Charity Shield game against FA Cup winners Manchester City at Highbury ten days later. Plus, also upcoming, was what was to become one of the most famous England matches of all time. But more of that in a moment.
Everton came into the first match of the new month in 6th position, having won just two of the last five matches, although their game immediately before the Arsenal match was a 4-0 home win against West Brom. Everton like Arsenal had a perfect home record of six wins, with no draws and no defeats, and like Arsenal their away form was nowhere near this mark, with three draws and three defeats. It looked like a comfortable home win was to be expected and this is what the above average crowd of over 50,000 got. 2-0 to the Arsenal and two goals from Bastin.
Ted Drake however missed the match through injury and Dunne stepped in for his first game of the season.
Elsewhere on the same day Stoke looked like they couldn't believe their position at the top of the league any more than anyone else and lost 0-3 at home to Sunderland. Fourth placed Grimsby drew with Blackburn, and these results placed Arsenal back on top of the league with Sunderland second.
Next up was away to Grimsby Town on 10th November. They had a solid home receord with four wins, two draws and no defeats, while Arsenal, despite this being November and the club being top of the league, still had not won away.
For this game Drake returned at centre forward and Hulme returned as outside right, and although both returnees scored, (and despite Arsenal being 2-0 up at half time) it ended 2-2. Sunderland beat Man City 3-2, to go top of the league once more, but the most extraordinary score of the day was bottom placed Huddersfield's 8-0 trouncing of 10th placed Liverpool. It seemed that last season's runners up had finally woken up.
Arsenal now had another clear week before facing Aston Villa at home – but their players didn't, for on 14 November they played again at Highbury – for England against Italy.
If you have heard of this match you'll probably know two things. One was that there were seven Arsenal players in the England team and the other was that it was a violent affair.
I think there are also a couple of other points of note that are often missing from this brief summary, and I'd like to pick them up here – simply because of the Arsenal connection with the game.
The first is that in the previous match against Wales on 29 September there had only been two Arsenal players in the England team. In the next England match on 6 February 1935 there were five Arsenal players (Male, Hapgood, Copping, Drake, Bastin). That was of course exceptional, but the occurrence of seven players in an England team was completely a one-off.
And it happened by chance, for against Italy Male was only called up after Tom Cooper of Derby County withdrew injured, and Drake came in after Sam Tilson of Manchester City was injured, and his first replacement George Hunt of Tottenham Hotspur was also injured.
Also (although I don't have documentation to prove it), it looks to me as if England chose their teams in different ways, depending on whether the match was on a Saturday (while regular league matches were being played) or midweek (when they were not). Going through the records it looks as if there was a deal that no more than two players per club would be called up for a Saturday match – not least because England regularly had little difficulty in their games against Ireland, Scotland and Wales, which made up the heart of their games each season. This match against Italy was a mid-week, and so there was no problem.
The second point is that England were not part of Fifa at the time, and so did not play in the world cup. But there was a feeling fostered by the FA that if England were to have been in the world cup they would, of course, have sauntered through and won the day.
Thus I am not at all sure that before the game the FA took this match very seriously. Indeed it must also be noted that in the previous England international six players had made their international debut.
For Italy it was their first match since winning the World Cup; England set up the game as being the "real" world cup final. There are stories (unconfirmed but oft repeated) that Mussolini offered the Italian players bonuses in terms of money and a car if they won. There was certainly an air of expectation – that England would quickly put Johnny (or perhaps that was Luigi) Foreigner in his place.
The England team was…
Male, Barker, Hapgood
Britton, Copping
Matthews, Drake, Bowden, Bastin, Brook.
So we had six players gaining their first or second international cap, appearances, including the entire right side of the team. We also had George Allison doing the BBC radio commentary, and Tom Whittaker acting as England's physio. And it was played at Highbury, not Wembley (where they had dog racing that night).
None of England's players had more than nine caps entering into the match but that didn't stop the players getting stuck in.
After two minutes the Italian centre half Luis Monti had his foot broken in a coming together with Drake on his first attack. Monti remained on the field for 15 minutes, which did the Italians no good at all, as his injury gave the England forwards a clear run at goal. He then did leave the pitch, but by that time England/Arsenal were 3-0 up.
It is said (in Wiki) that after the game the FA considered withdrawing from all internationals as a result of this game – and what joy would could have had as club rather than country supporters had they had the nerve to do it. As it was, aside from the "home" internationals played each year, England continued dabbling with games against foreign nations, starting with a game against the Netherlands on 18 May 1935 and including a match against Germany on 4 December with the number of such games growing at a rate of one extra game a year until war broke out.
The friendlies resumed after the war, and in 1949 the "home internationals" became a qualifying group for the 1950 Fifa World Cup, and there was no turning back.
Here are two videos of the game at Highbury. The quality is of course poor, but even so, you get an idea.
And the other
As the videos suggest the game itself degenerated into continual violence injuries to players became widespread. Brook had his arm broken, Bowden suffered a severe ankle injury, Barker a hand injury and Drake got a gashed leg.
If there had been enough strength in the English clubs they might have told the FA that they had had enough and wanted no more of this, but patriotism was the name of the game in the 1930s, and any attempt to sort out the FA before it got ideas above its station.
Meanwhile away from the violence, those who read stories to their children and who took note of the obituaries columns in the press noted that on 16 November that Alice Hargreaves, who, as Alice Liddell, was the inspiration for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland had passed away. Those who did note this, and who had also noted the England/Italy match (and it was rather hard not to note it, such was the publicity), began to comment on the lunacy of international football. It was the start of a theme that George Orwell eventually took up when he wrote an article for Tribune, following the visit of Moscow Dynamo to the UK in 1945 when they played against Arsenal, called the Sporting Spirit. It is an article well worth reading if you have ten minutes, but here is the bit that most people quote, without really knowing the full context:
Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence: in other words it is war minus the shooting.
Back with the football and Arsenal in the 1930s, the Gunners now had to pick themselves up from the battle on the Wednesday and take on Aston Villa on Saturday. Amazing only Bowden couldn't make the game (Marshall coming in for his third game of the season), but there must have been doubts as to exactly how physically fit many of the rest of the Arsenal England players were.
Aston Villa had no such worries – they had no such players in the England team. But Arsenal were at home with their perfect home record. Villa were 10th and had only won once away.
However the memory and the wounds of the battle of Highbury were still there for all to see. Arsenal held on – it was goalless at half time, but in the end Villa inflicted Arsenal's first home defeat of the season 2-1. Sunderland and Stoke both won, so Arsenal sank to third. Bastin got Arsenal's goal with a penalty. If ever there was an example of Arsenal suffering because of international "duty" as it is ludicrously called, this was it.
As if the battle of Highbury, followed by the first home defeat of the season were not enough, the following day Arsenal flew to Paris for the annual game against Racing Club. Of course this was all arranged long before the Italy game, and was for the most important of causes – raising money for the well-being of servicemen who survived the first world war. And in the fullest respect of the meaning of the occasion much of the regular first team were given an outing. Compton came in for Hapgood, Sidey for Roberts, and Marshall continuing his role at inside right. John came in for James and Hill for Bastin. Hill got two of the goals before being substituted for Bastin, and Marshall got the other.
After two games in two days, and the Battle of Highbury, Arsenal now had six days to prepare for their next game – a London derby away to Chelsea. Arsenal were third, but still without an away win all season. Chelsea were bottom with three home wins and four defeats. They had just beaten Blackburn away, but prior to that it had been three straight defeats.
Crayston now dropped out of the team, probably still feeling the effects of the Italy match, and Frank Hill got his first game since the opening match of the campaign. Bowden came back to replace Marshall. And at last on their 8th attempt of the season Arsenal won away – by 5-2. Drake got four and Hulme the fifth. It took Drake's total up to 22 for the season, was the second time he had got four goals in a game and his fourth hattrick.
What made the failure of Arsenal to win away up to this point so noticeable was that throughout Chapman's career both at Huddersfield and Arsenal, he had sought to build teams that played counter attacking football at home and away. Indeed the whole concept of the WM formation was based on the desire not just to defend against the new offside rule, but to get the ball from the central defender to a defensive half back who was able immediately to pass on to a passing half back who would move it on to an inside forward who gave it to a potential goal scorer.
This very fast progress up the pitch from a defensive position worked as well at home as away, and hence the close balance in each of the successful seasons between home and away results.
Now under Allison, this was not how it was at all. Home was superb (until the Villa game, and there were explanations for that), away was poor.
But help was at hand because as Arsenal were getting their first away victory, quite remarkably Stoke and Sunderland both lost – Stoke going down 3-1 to Grimsby (perhaps Matthews was also feeling the after effects of Italy) and Sunderland losing at home to WBA. Arsenal were now up to second just one point behind Sunderland.
This left Arsenal with one final game in this most adventurous of months – the Charity Shield match against Manchester City, to be played at Highbury on the 28th.
Arsenal again included Sidey, and Birkett and Marshall came into the side. Drake, Bastin, Birkett and Marshall got one each in front of a modest crowd.
Here is, as always, the summary of the games of the month.
Date Opponent Op Pos H/A Result Pos Pts Crowd AC
03.11.1934 Everton 6 H W 2-0 1 18 50,350 46,252
10.11.1934 Grimsby Town 4 A D 2-2 2 19 26,288 13,706
17.11.1934 Aston Villa 10 H L 1-2 3 19 54,226 46,252
18.11.1934 Racing Club A W 3-0 Fr 40,000
24.11.1934 Chelsea 22 A W 5-2 2 21 43,419 32,342
28.11.1934 Manchester City H W 4-0 C.S 10,888
The abbreviations, as always mean…
Op pos, is the league position of the opposition before the game
Pos is Arsenal's position after the game
AC is the average crowd for the home team through the season, providing a comparison between the crowd on that day (in the previous column) and the norm expected by the home side.
Thus the month ended with Arsenal bloodied but now bowed. Second in the league, Charity Shield holders for the second year running, and holders of the all time record for the most players from one club ever to appear together in an England team. And they had, at last, won an away game and they were only one point behind the league leaders, despite having only won two of the last five league games.
3 Stoke City 16 10 1 5 35 23 1.52 21
6 Aston Villa 16 8 3 5 36 38 0.95 19
7 West Bromwich Albion 16 7 4 5 37 30 1.23 18
8 Liverpool 16 8 2 6 30 38 0.79 18
10 Sheffield Wednesday 16 7 3 6 27 28 0.96 17
But, please don't look away yet, for much as the Battle of Highbury had grabbed the nation's interest there were still two more events that took particular attention. On 29 November Prince George, Duke of Kent married Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark. This was the last occasion of a foreign-born princess marrying into the British royal family and the wedding was the first to be broadcast live on radio – a matter of even greater excitement than the Arsenal manager doing a commentary on England while his own players were hacked to pieces.
It gripped the nation, as the nation was gripped by the event the following day when the Flying Scotsman became the first train officially to exceed 100mph in a test in England. To those members of the public who wished to be so convinced, it seemed that England was still up to the mark when it came to anything from technological know-how to royal blood to fair footballing achievement (not like these awful foreigners).

I was wondering if anyone has used TestNG to distribute tests across multiple test resources?
We have a scenario where we will trigger the tests once a build has completed. The agent that controls the testing will use multiple test resources ( slaves ) to run the test suite.
Has anyone done this? If this can be accomplished without to much custom coding it'd be great.


The Red Lake Department of Public Safety is warning community members to be aware of opioids possibly tainted with fentanyl in the area. This comes after the department says they've encountered a number of overdoses in the past week.
The Red Lake Police Department issued a statement on their Facebook page today, reading in part: "This is an extremely dangerous and potent drug and is a ticking time bomb for heroin and other opioid users who may be unaware their product is laced with fentanyl."
Fentanyl can be found in white and colored powders, and could potentially be present in any illicit drug. Fentanyl is 30-50 times as strong as pure heroin, and a dose the size of a few grains of salt can be fatal to an average-size person.
Drug dealers sell fentanyl in a variety of ways, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Dealers sell pure fentanyl in white powder form to users who assume they are buying heroin. They lace cocaine or heroin with fentanyl. And they press fentanyl into pills and pass them off as OxyContin.
When a user ingests fentanyl or a drug laced with fentanyl, it affects the central nervous system and brain. Because it is such a powerful opioid, users often have trouble breathing or can stop breathing as the drug sedates them.
Fentanyl may require multiple doses of naloxone to restore breathing. If you do not have naloxone, it can be picked up at the IHS hospital over the counter in Red Lake. If someone is too drowsy to answer questions, is having difficulty breathing, or appears to be so asleep they cannot be awakened, call 9-1-1 immediately, start rescue breathing and administer naloxone if you have it at home.
Affected individuals can contact the MARS program at the Red Lake Hospital, which offers a medication-assisted treatment (MAT) service to patients with opioid use disorders at 679-3912 or Chemical Health can be contacted at 679-3392 for other treatment options.
People are also to contact the Red Lake Police Department to report any suspected illegal drug activity in the community. The police department says they will take reports anonymously upon request.


Whenever your smartphone breaks you are faced with a tough question to answer. Should you repair the smartphone or just replace it with a new one?
Add to this is the complexity that the smartphones and tablets keep on getting cheaper because of technology advancements. The super expensive mobile phone you bought some time back might be selling for half the price already!!! Not only that, the fact that technology advance is so fast, specifications of mobile devices keep on improving in weeks and months. i.e. they go bigger, better and more powerful.
Before you decide whether you should buy a new phone or you should get the old one repaired, you should evaluate the following points. This will help you simplify the problem and make an informed decision.
• Your phone is already worn off and has physical damage on the body. The latest damage is the last nail in the coffin!!!
• Your phone does not suit your new Avatar. You got promoted and would like to change your phone and the damage just gave you a chance to do it.
• If the phone was gifted to you or the phone is very dear to you and you have a lot of good memories attached to it.
What more, you can also ask for a free price quotation for the repair from our expert technicians. This will definitely help you make an informed decision. Simply call on 1800-3000-5304 or place your query at http://www.justlikenew.in/pages/Enquiry/pgid-1105188.aspx and you will get an answer for free.
Previous Post Why you should only let the professionals repair your smartphone or tablet.


Things have been rather quite lately, haven't they? Well, for good reason! I've been rather stressed out as I've had several interviews for the beginnings of my dream job. Some of you may have read in my California Bound post that "I no longer see a viable career for me here [Portland] . . . Today I have new career goals, and they can only happen in California." Well, those career goals are something I've kept under wraps, but as I have now achieved the first step, I feel I can finally share some really big news with you all. I am now a Cast Member for the Disneyland Resort.
Working at Disneyland is something I have given great thought to over the years. When I was in college, I saw a flyer for the Disney College Program and thought about doing it, but I had never even done sleep-away camp, and, as I was still very close to home, was fearful of such a dramatic change. Additionally I was in a very good relationship at the time (with Patrick), and I didn't want to risk losing that. Which was a good move, as we eventually got married. I pushed aside the thought for some time, telling myself it was childish and irrational, along with a slew of other notions, but the idea kept nagging at me, tugging at me every time we set foot inside Disneyland as Guests. As I attempted to go forward with opening up a vintage clothing shop in Portland, I was learning more and more about what it meant to be a shop owner, the rigors of having to quite literally hunt to put food on your table and pay your bills. That wasn't for me. The more we visited Disneyland the more I realized that freshman college me was right all along, Disneyland is where I should be.
I will openly admit that at this time, I am not fully aware of all of the social media restrictions for Cast Members, so this post may be removed in the near future. I probably won't know until a month from now, when I begin training and finally start making dreams come true for others. But I couldn't wait to share with all of you this huge step in my life! It is a true thrill and I am overjoyed!
An important note on future Disneyland posts. Currently I plan to continue my Disneyland posts, sharing things such as tours or other unique events. But keep in mind that anything that is said is my own opinion, and that I do not speak for or represent Disney as a company or any of its affiliates.
Cultivating the Magic	Hello, What Have We Here?
YAY Janey!! This is wonderful. I have lots of friends who work for Disney (in CA, FL and on the cruises) and they typically have really wonderful things to say. And I'm not sure of the restrictions on cast members either, but typically they seem to be more lenient when you work in the parks as a real person, rather than as a character. So excited for you!!
Congratulations!! What very exciting news!
Congratulations!!! You're living my dream!! Do you know where you'll be working yet?
Janey, this sounds like great fun. Wishing you the best of luck in your new position.
Congratulations, what an amazing new job!
Congratulations! I hope it's as fun as it sounds 🙂 I love coming here to read your Disney posts!!
I am so envious! It's been a dream of mine to work there too, but with two kids and a mortgage in Oregon I won't be moving to California any time soon. I've always wanted to be one of the artists that works at the base of the Matterhorn, painting little watercolor name paintings in the style of Disney characters. Maybe they have a summer internship program for grownups!
I'm thrilled for you! Congratulations!
Oooh, Janey, I'm over the moon elated for you! I know what a mammoth, important goal/dream working at Disney is for you and am honestly tearing up with happiness about this great news! Way to go!!!!!!
How exciting! Congratulations. I'm sad I never got to work there – the only one in my family (of 4 kids) not to! The 90's were a terrible time at DL.
How wonderful! So happy for you. Disneyland is so lucky to have such a creative, inspiring, beautiful girl.
My sister has been working at Disneyland in S Cal for the last 7 years and just loves it. I'm sure you will have a similar wonderful time. Good luck.
Congratulations! That is brilliant news.
Absolutely PERFECT job for you! You'll have so many interesting facts and a ton of history to share with guests. You were meant for this! Congrats! Congrats! Congrats!

Top Six Megatrends Changing The Workplace
The C-suite is more concerned about their people strategy than any other issues facing their organizations, according to the Global Leadership Forecast 2018.
https://businessfacilities.com/2018/02/top-six-megatrends-changing-workplace/
Home » Economic Development » Surveys & Research » Top Six Megatrends Changing The Workplace
The C-suite is more concerned about their people strategy than any other issues facing their organizations, finds the Global Leadership Forecast 2018.
The biggest worry on executives' minds around the world isn't recession, global competition, or labor relations. It's not even cyber-security. New data shows that what's keeping C-level executives up at night is their people strategies.
The just-released Global Leadership Forecast 2018: 25 Research Insights to Fuel Your People Strategy reveals that C-level executives rank developing "next gen" leaders and failure to attract and retain top talent as their biggest challenges in the coming years by a wide margin. In fact, only 14 percent of CEOs believe they have the leadership talent to execute their strategy.
Produced as a collaboration between DDI, The Conference Board, and EY, the 2018 Global Leadership Forecast (GLF) is one of the most expansive leadership research projects ever conducted. Now in the eighth edition since DDI published the first GLF in 1999, this year's study includes data from 25,812 leaders and 2,547 human resources professionals at 2,488 organizations across 26 industries worldwide.
"If you're deeply concerned about your organization's lack of leadership capability, you are in the clear majority," said Evan Sinar, chief scientist and vice president of DDI, and lead author of the GLF. "The tremendous amount of data we collected in this study shows that as digital disruption continues to transform the workplace, we're facing a massive leadership shortage worldwide. The good news, however, is that the research also reveals a clear road map of how organizations can start changing their people strategies today to excel tomorrow."
The full GLF report delivers 25 deep insights about corporate leadership around the world. Among these insights, six leadership mega-trends emerged:
1. Digital is reshaping the workforce.
Digital pioneers—defined as the top 25 percent of organizations with the strongest digital leadership capabilities—financially outperform other companies by 50 percent.
The impact of a digitally transforming workplace influenced nearly every aspect of the research, revealing that organizations that have digitally-savvy leaders are significantly outperforming the average. In sync with the financial findings, the study showed that there are substantial differences in leaders' skills at organizations considered "digital pioneers" compared with "digital laggards."
"Leadership, particularly in the current digital era, is of critical importance to our clients," said Adam Canwell, partner, People Advisory Services, Ernst & Young Australia. "It is a top agenda item for CEOs and boards, who are looking for insights on how to embrace disruption to connect people and possibilities."
2. Data is creating a more inclusive, agile, and fair workplace.
Organizations with more women in leadership are 1.4 times more likely to have sustained, profitable growth.
Successful organizations continue to rely more heavily on big data to inform their business strategies, and their people strategies are no exception. By tying people analytics to business results, organizations are seeing how greater diversity in leadership positively affects the bottom line, and how diverse leadership capabilities better prepare organizations to handle disruption.
3. A diverse, purpose-driven culture defines success.
Purpose-driven companies outperform the market by 42 percent.
Culture emerged as a major driver of leadership success in the study. The data showed that, for leadership strategies to succeed, organizations must build solid cultural cornerstones, such as a clearly communicated purpose, peer coaching, experimentation and psychological safety. Diversity also plays a major role in building a successful workplace, which includes embracing gender diversity, leveraging diverse mindsets, and understanding the relationship between Millennial, Generation X and Baby Boomer leaders.
"In this rapidly changing era of disruption, globalization and digitalization, leaders still need to deliver results and balance that with the need to insure performance, coach and develop people, be inspiring and engaging and nurture diverse talent…it's a tall order," said Rebecca L. Ray, Ph.D., executive vice president of the Knowledge Organization at The Conference Board, and a co-author of the GLF. "The insights featured in the GLF form the needed blueprint for developing and enhancing these critical abilities."
4. DIY doesn't work.
Of organizations in the top third for financial performance, 55 percent have formalized mentoring.
A "do it yourself" mentality leads to leadership failure. GLF data provided clear evidence that leaders are increasingly expected to work in shared leadership environments, and that leaders increasingly need to build relationships with mentors to find success. Additionally, organizations that rely on a self-directed, insular approach to learning are failing to engage leaders in meaningful development.
5. Finding new sources of leadership potential is crucial.
Organizations that extend development of high-potential talent below senior levels are 4.2 times more likely to financially outperform those that don't.
In the past, organizations have often had a narrow definition of the "type" of person who has leadership potential, and have invested their resources into developing a very small group of people who meet that criteria. The GLF, however, showed that organizations that take a broader view of leadership potential prove to be more financially successful, feature stronger top leaders and have more women in leadership.
6. Human resources is losing its influence.
On average, companies excelling at people analytics are 3.1 times more likely to outperform their peers financially. But as human resources' digital skills continue to lag, attempts to adopt people analytics are increasingly failing.
Over the past three years, human resources' reputation has gotten worse, with more leaders now believing that human resources is simply a "reactor" that executes commands rather than an "anticipator" that develops a people strategy that enables the organization's business strategy. One of the primary challenges is that human resources is failing to develop digital skills on pace with technology advances, which undermines their ability and reputation to drive digital transformation across the workforce.

The Battle of Leyte Gulf: Introduction and the Battle of Palawan Passage
This is the first of a four article series on the Battle of Letye Gulf. The battle was the largest in history both in terms of the number of ships involved and the amount of area covered. The action was triggered by the American invasion of the Philippines causing the Japanese to initiate their Shō-Gō 1 (Victory Plan 1) to attempt to defeat the Americans. The plan relied heavily on land based air power which most of unfortunately for the Japanese was destroyed during the American carrier air strikes on Formosa earlier in the month.
The battle was necessitated by the absolute need for the Japanese to hold the Philippines and defeat the Americans at all costs. As Admiral Soemu Toyoda the Chief of the Combined Fleet explained under interrogation after the war
Should we lose in the Philippines operations, even though the fleet should be left, the shipping lane to the south would be completely cut off so that the fleet, if it should come back to Japanese waters, could not obtain its fuel supply. If it should remain in southern waters, it could not receive supplies of ammunition and arms. There would be no sense in saving the fleet at the expense of the loss of the Philippines.
The battle was comprised of 5 battles, the Battle of Palawan Passage, the Battle of the Sibuyan Sea, the Battle of Surigao Strait, the Battle of Cape Engaño and the Battle off Samar. All told about 70 Japanese warships and 210 American and Australian ships were engaged. A further 300 Japanese aircraft, mostly land based and 1500 American carrier aircraft took part in the battle. The Japanese order of battle included 1 Fleet and 3 Light Fleet Carriers with a minimal air group, 9 Battleships including the two largest ever built the Yamato and Musashi, 14 Heavy and 6 Light Cruisers and about 3 destroyers. They were divided into four task forces, the Northern Force under the command of Vice-Admiral Jisaburō Ozawa which had all of the Carriers including the last surviving carrier of the Pearl Harbor attack the Fleet Carrier Zuikaku plus the converted hybrid Battleships Ise and Hyuga; the Southern Force which was two distinct and independent task forces under the command of Vice Admirals Shoji Nishimura and Kiyohide Shima and was built around the ancient battleships Fuso and Yamashiro and 3 Heavy Cruisers; and the Center Force under the command of Vice Admiral Takeo Kurita which had the Battleships Yamato, Musashi, Nagato, Kongo and Haruna, 10 Heavy and 2 Light Cruisers and 1 destroyers. The Center force was to pass through the San Bernardino Strait and converge on the American landing forces off Samar with the Southern Force which as to come through the Surigo Strait. The Japanese also planned for the first use of Kamikazes as part of the action.
Takao Class Cruiser 1943
The American fleet was comprised of the 3rd Fleet under Admiral William Halsey which was built around the Fast Carrier Task Forces and Fast Battleships of Task Force 38 under the Command of Vice Admiral Marc Mitscher and the Battle Line Task Force 34 under the Command of Vice Admiral Willis Lee; and the 7th Fleet under Vice Admiral William Kinkaid which was the naval support for the landings. It had under its control the old Battleships West Virginia, California, Tennessee, Maryland, Colorado and Pennsylvania and 18 Escort Carriers which provided the close air support for the Invasion. All told the Americans had 8 Fleet and 8 Light Fleet Carriers, 18 Escort Carriers, 12 Battleships, 24 Cruisers and 141 Destroyers as well as submarines, PT Boats, Transports, Landing Ships and Auxiliaries.
This series will focus on a number of individual battles and decisions in the battle. Part one will focus on the action of the Submarines Darter and Dace against the Center force in the Palawan Passage. The next will be the sinking of the Musashi during the Battle of the Sibuyan Sea, it will be followed by the revenge of the Old Battleships at Surigo Strait. The next will be the great decision of Admiral Halsey to pursue the Northern Force and leave the San Bernardino Strait unguarded, followed by the Battle off Samar and last the death of the Japanese Naval Aviation at Cape Engaño.
The Battle of Palawan Passage
Admiral Takeo Kurita and the powerful Center Force departed their anchorage at Bruneion 20 October 1944. The task force entered the Palawan Passage on the night of 22-23 October where they were sighted by the American Submarines Darter and Dace which had been posted at the strait for such a possibility. Darter made radar contact at 30,000 yards at 0018 hours on the 23rd and sent out contact reports. The two submarines shadowed the Center Force on the surface to gain an intercept position and submerged just before dawn.
USS Darter
Darter struck first at 0524 firing a spread of 6 torpedoes scoring 4 hits on Admiral Kurita's flagship the Heavy Cruiser Atago. She reloaded and stuck the Heavy Cruiser Takao with 2 torpedoes at 0634. At 0554 Dace hit the Heavy Cruiser Maya with 4 torpedoes.
Vice Admiral Takeo Kurita
The blow was severe. Atago was mortally wounded she capsized and sank at 0553 with the loss of 360 crew members. She sank so rapidly that Kurita had to swim and was rescued with his Chief of Staff by a destroyer, but many of his staff members were lost with the ship. Though Kurita transferred his flag to Yamato he was now without the advice and counsel of officers that might have prevented later mistakes during the Battle off Samar. Takao suffered heavy damage and though she did not sink she had to proceed crippled to Singapore under the guard of two destroyers. Though she survived the war she never saw action again. Maya, struck at 0554 by 4 torpedoes suffered much damage and was wracked by powerful secondary explosions. By 0600 she was dead in the water and sank five minutes later with the loss of 337 crew members.
USS Dace
The attack of the two submarines was significant; the Japanese lost 3 powerful Heavy Cruisers and had to send two of their destroyers away to guard Takao. Likewise the loss of Kurita's experienced staff hindered his conduct of the battle on the 24th. The cruisers were a big loss, at 13,000 tons and armed with ten 8"guns they could steam at 35 knots.
Darter and Dace conducted a pursuit of the crippled Takao which had to be broken off when Darter ran aground on Bombay Shoal. Despite the best efforts of her crew and that of the Dace to free her she was hopelessly stuck. Her crew was unable to scuttle her and the Japanese were able to board her after she was abandoned and for the first time get a look at the details of a Gato class submarine.
Kurita's force would continue on into theSibuyan Seawhere they would be attacked again. But that is the subject of the next article.

The South Korean Order of Battle
South Korean Marines
This is the second of a two part series on military forces on the Korean Peninsula and supplemental articles on the crisis on the Korean Peninsula. The First, the North Korean Order of Battle https://padresteve.wordpress.com/2010/05/27/the-north-korean-order-of-battle/ compliments this article. Peace, Padre Steve+
The Republic of Korea has a robust military. It is well trained and equipped but only about half the size of the military of its rival the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). It is composed of the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. It is equipped with indigenously produced equipment as well as that purchased from the United States and other countries. It has deployed troops to Iraq, Afghanistan as well as Vietnam and the Gulf War.
The biggest component of the South Korean military is the Army which is composed of 522,000 soldiers organized into a Missile Command, Special Forces, aviation, logistics and training branches and a Capitol Defense Command. The Army is composed of 30 Infantry and 5 Mechanized divisions, 4 Armored Brigades, 7 Special Operations Brigades (Airborne), 2 Special Assault Brigades and 6 Special Assault Regiments as well as a host of artillery, engineer, aviation, air defense, chemical, security and logistics commands of various sizes.
K1A1 Main Battle Tank
The Army has over 2500 tanks, 1500 of which are the K-1 and K-1A main battle tanks which were developed from the U.S. Army XM-1, M1, M1A1 and M1A2. These are supplemented by 880 M-48 Patton Tanks. The Army also is well equipped with over 500 K-9 Self-Propelled 155mm Howitzer systems and about 1000 K55 155mm Self Propelled Howitzers based on the U.S. M109 series. The Army uses about 2200 of the indigenously produced K200 Infantry Fighting Vehicles which are being supplemented with the first production batch of 466 K21 Infantry Fighting Vehicles. Its Aviation branch operates 600 helicopters.
K-9 155mm Howitzer
The ROK Marine Corps is a semi-autonomous branch of the Navy and is composed of 2 Marine Divisions and a Marine Brigade with strength of 27,000 Marines. Like the U.S. Marine Corps the ROK Marine Corps has an amphibious mission and is similarly equipped with Amphibious Assault Vehicles, Tanks, and Artillery and Reconnaissance vehicles. The 6th Marine Brigade garrisons the Islands in the West, or Yellow Sea and was involved in the most recent clash on Yeonpyeong Island.
The ROK Navy has 9 very modern destroyers including 2 ships equipped with the Aegis Air Defense System and 9 Frigates of the Ulsan Class. It has 12 German designed S209 and S214 class Submarines with 12 more of the later building or planned. The Navy operates about 130 other ships or craft including 23 Corvettes and 73 patrol craft. The Corvette Cheonan was sunk in March by a North Korean torpedo likely fired by a midget submarine. It also has a robust amphibious capability recently fielding the LPH Dokdo a 14,000 ton helicopter assault ship. It operates about 10 ASW Aircraft and 50 helicopters.
Dokdo LPH
As of 2008 the ROK Air force operated more than 180 KF-16, 174 F-5E/F, 130 F-4D/E, 39 F-15K fighter jets or fighter bombers. They are also pending the delivery of 21 additional F-15Ks between 2010 and 2012. The bulk of the Air Force, 6 fighter wings is under command of the Northern Combat Command.
Supplementing the ROK forces at U.S. Forces Korea which include the ground forces of the 8th Army, now consisting of the 2nd Infantry Division (FWD) composed of 1st Heavy Combat Brigade Team, 201st Fires Brigade and 2nd Combat Aviation Brigade and supporting units. Reinforcements can be drawn from I Corps at Ft Lewis Washington and units of the 2nd and 25th Infantry Divisions.
The 7th Air Force which has 2 Fighter Wings composed of F-16, F-15 fighters and A-10 ground attack aircraft as well as supporting ground units. . In theater Air Force assets can be reinforced by wings and squadrons from U.S. Air Force Pacific which include the latest F-22 Raptors and other attack and bombing units. Additionally units of the Strategic Air Command using B-52 and B-2 bombers can be employed.
The U.S. Navy 7th Fleet based in Japan contributes the USS George Washington (CVN 73) and the embarked Carrier Air Wing Five (CVW-5) Surface Combatant Force Seventh Fleet (or Task Force 75) comprised of Aegis Cruisers USS Shiloh (CG 67), USS Cowpens (CG 63) and the seven assigned ships of Destroyer Squadron Fifteen (CDS-15) complete the surface combatant forces. Submarine Group 7 based in Guam composed of USS Buffalo (SSN 715), USS City of Corpus Christi (SSN 705) and USS Houston (SSN 713) supported by the Submarine Tender USS Frank Cable (AS 40) reinforced by USS Ohio (SSGN-726) and USS Michigan (SSGN-727) both Home-ported Bangor, Washington provide both ASW capability against DPRK Submarine Forces as well as attack and guided missile attack capabilities using Harpoon and Tomahawk Submarine Launched Guided Missiles. Amphibious forces include the Sasebo based USS Essex (LHD-2), USS Denver (LPD-9), USS Harpers Ferry (LSD-49) and USS Tortuga (LSD-46) which typically embark the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit. Mine Warfare forces include the USS Avenger (MCM-1), USS Defender (MCM-2), USS Guardian (MCM-5) and USS Patriot (MCM-7). All can be reinforced by elements of the West Coast and Hawaii based 3td Fleet. Marine Forces of the III Marine Expeditionary Force based in Okinawa and Mainland Japan composed of 3rd Marine Division, 1st Marine Air Wing and 3rd Marine Logistics Group provide a potent expeditionary force in readiness to support any contingency on the Korea Peninsula.
While the ROK and US Forces undoubtedly would control the air and the sea North Korean ground forces mostly based on the border could launch a devastating artillery and missile attack on the South Korean Capital, Seoul and their large number of special operations forces could make ground operations more difficult despite the qualitative superiority of ROK and ground US Forces. North Korea does have the capability to spread the war to Japan which could contribute its air, naval and potentially ground forces to any conflict. United Nations Forces could be added to the allied order of battle.

Q: Multiple versions of glib I have an older version of glib that all applications are compiled against and use. I need to install a new application that requires a newer version of glib to compile and run. I installed the new version of glib in a separate folder (without uninstalling the older version) and am able to compile the new application (using pkg-config). The compilation script uses a linker flag like -lglib-2.0 to link against the library.
However, I am not sure of the best way to have the two libraries together so that they can be used by their applications that need them. Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the location of the new library breaks the old applications.
I could set LD_LIBRARY_PATH everytime the new application runs to point to the new glib path (through an sh script for example), but I am wondering if there's a better way.

A: Try changing the compile script to specify -rpath= with the directory containing the old libraries. The rpath will be embedded into the actual compiled binaries.
(It is even possible for the rpath to contain certain expansions like \$ORIGIN/../lib if you want it to be relative to the binary's location.)
However, in practice a shellscript wrapper that sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH is indeed common for binary-distributed software (the kind that usually goes in /opt).


All who shared the same passion, bestest luck for the coming rounds..
Grace, wawa...and all who have shared joy here! smile.. we are all behind you all!
and singapore ger..i seriously think u shd have the opportunity, the way u carried yourself and your posts here showed efforts and maturity..
DUN worry... ibelieve faith is in your hands, its a matter of time that u will be flying high with passion! You are still young young..kip the faith!

Menaquinone wrote: Does SQ demand that all FA-interviewees must have the ability to swim? I can only float.
Being able to swin is mandatory for all Flight Attendants on all major airlines, if you have a life-saving qualification so much the better.
But if swimming skills were so crucial, why weren't they stated clearly in advertisements or is this some thing unspoken?
I must confess, I haven't looked a great deal at the advertisements but that should be stated or they may have assumed that people know this. This all comes back to what I have said so many times on this board do some research. There is nothing worse than somebody turning up for an interview with a company as prestigious as Singapore Airlines and have not an inkling of a clue what the job entails. Besides it says one thing to the interviewer ' I am not interested'. Like it or not that's what it implies.
What many on this board fail to realize is your primary concern as a flight attendant apart from service is passenger safety. Hope you 'wannabes' will think about that.
Hope I can put up some posts later that will help those who are genuinely interested there are some on this board who don't stand a chance.
I hear you brother. I'm not trying to be a show off coz I've been researching about this job almost every single day. It just pains me when I learnt of people who goes to the interview without full knowledge of the job and make it all the way, but when the contract is in front of her, she thinks twice and then reject it. OR she goes into training but dropped out halfway coz she can't take the stress. I mean why those passionate people who are dying to get this job not getting it but the ones gifted are forsaking it? I don't mean all but there are many who have been this way.
Wannabes should know basic swimming, have compassion, know that the job is not about glamour, know that training would be stressful, know that work will clash with holidays, and who knows what. And of course, don't ask this again, but English IS necessary. It's an international language for goodness sake. Don't expect your cabin crew to be speaking in broken English when serving you right?
Forgive me, some questions like swimming proficiency is unnecessary. Sometimes common sense will provide you with the simplest answer. I hope I do not offend anyone in this post, but forgive me if I do.
I just got an interview with Tiger Airways. My interview is tommorrow and I'm nervous now. Anyways, why don't u give it a try for other airlines?
I mean Singapore Air is just getting too high on their expectations. Try Emirates or Qatar which you will be base overseas. And they pay you MORE, in USD!
Ps: do u know that tiger goes to darwin in australia too?
[quote="queenie-meI just got an interview with Tiger Airways. My interview is tommorrow and I'm nervous now. Anyways, why don't u give it a try for other airlines?
We wouldn't want airlines to have high expectations, would we . . .
You will find that all major airlines are pretty much on par when it comes to requirements.
It seems that all the majority of posters here look at is what they can get out of the job or what the job offers them, not how they can contribute to the company - INTERVIEWERS CAN SENSE THAT!!!
It is a two-way street - you need to be fulfilled by what the company offers you and the company needs to be satisfied with what you have to offer.
Seriously, take to heart some of the points made by Plavt and M - prepare for your interviews (not just find out when the dates are) and you will find it much easier.
Sadly very seldom does anyone take note of advice that is given here, and then posters wonder why they have failed their interviews . . . would this instill confidence in potential customers of SIA/Tiger/Emirates etc . . . .?
Wow congrats to you! When did you send in the application? I would love to try Emirates and Qatar but I still don't meet the age requirement. I'm 19. The next best thing is SilkAir for me coz I've been doing my 'homework' mainly on SilkAir. Not much on other airlines. Especially on Tiger Airways, it's really hard to find solid facts on the airline and its cabin crew.
just wondering are we required to wear full piece swim costume on friday?
I believe Queenie sent her application last year right? Paige sent in last year for Tiger Airways and got a nod for interview as well. Good luck Queenie for the interview girl! I'll be praying hard for you! But do take note that Tiger Airways pay is lower. And it's roundabout flight don't really have the chance to see the country. And YESH! Tiger Airways do fly to the only city in AUS, Darwin! I'm surprised as well. But I do have to agree with Singaporegrrl. It's very hard to find information of Tiger Airways. I could not even find out how their uniform looks like. Haha... What the. It's that hard.
Yes. Swimming will be a plus. IF you do not know how to swim, the airlines will make sure you know how to by the end of the training. But heck! Just pass this round 1st ok then worry! But like what Singaporegrrl said, don't give up in the end. You are not only pursuing your dream but helping us those who did not got short-listed to continue our dream as well. So good luck and stay on track!

Their uniform is a 2 piece suit. top is a white short sleeve blouse wif a tiger print scarf tied around the neck. And the bottom is a skirt.
I reckon most will go for 1 piece to hide "anything" which might catch unwanted attention like scars etc?

Legislation that would require chemical plants to develop stronger security in the face of terrorist threats is being blocked by conservative Senator James Inhofe (R-OK). The Portland Press Herald reported July 5 that Inhofe, who heads the Senate Environment Committee and has a record of opposing environmental initiatives (see the Our Planet column http://emagazine.com/view/?3247), is blocking a Senate floor vote on the bill out of concern that the bill would force chemical companies to stop producing especially toxic chemicals. Inhofe, who also denies the reality of global warming and has sponsored Senate appearances by climate skeptic and novelist Michael Crichton, takes this stand despite the fact that the chemical security bill is generally supported by the industry it intends to regulate. According to Inhofe, chemical companies "do not need the federal government coming in and telling them specifically how to manufacture products."
Supporters of the bill point to the accidental 1984 release of the chemical methyl isocyanate in Bhopal, India. The release killed 3,000 people and injured 200,000. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, 15,000 plants in the U.S. have enough chemicals on hand to kill people in the surrounding areas, and 100 of them harbor enough toxins to kill a million people each. As written, the chemical safety bill is unlikely to force changes in the chemicals plants manufacture because an amendment that took just that approach (sponsored by Senator Joseph Lieberman, D-CT) was defeated. Senators who opposed Lieberman's amendment (including Inhofe) received $819,900 from chemical companies required to submit disaster plans to the EPA, says Greenpeace.
