Q: How do I get edit text to save multiple times? I have this layout with a button that when clicked takes the user to a page with two edit texts, one for a question and one for an answer. When the check button on that activity is clicked, the user is taken back to the previous activity with a new dynamic button created with the text set to the question. I've got the inputted edit text to save. My problem is that when I try to edit an already existing edit text, it does not save and instead stays to the originally inputted texts. I know the problem is that in my code, I have it so that the intent is accessed only when the plus button on the first page is clicked, however, I have no idea how to get the edit text to save again when the button on the edit text page is clicked.

Ukraine: Potential Trade and Trade-Partner Impacts
We continue to watch the news about the war in Ukraine and the dramatic human suffering. This war will have large direct and indirect impacts that will be felt globally, particularly in financial markets and international trade.
This is the second in a series on this war, and its short and longer term potential impacts on the financial markets and global trading products and partners.
Source: Visual Capitalist
Facts You May Not Know About Ukraine
The war in Ukraine will likely have significant impacts that will be felt globally, through destruction of agricultural, human, and other assets as well as important shifts in trading partners and allies. Here are some interesting statistics on key Ukrainian trading products and industries that have been dramatically changed by the current war.
In the 1990s most natural gas Russia exported crossed Ukraine, but that role has diminished through use of new pipelines by about 2/3. Although Ukraine is still ranked 2nd in terms of known natural gas reserves in Europe, which remain largely untapped today, Ukraine's need for energy fuels skyrocketed with Russia's annexation of the Crimean peninsula, which held 80% of Ukraine's oil and gas deposits in the Black Sea.
Ukraine is the 5th largest exporter of wheat and makes up about 15% of the global grain exports (corn/wheat), exceeding that of EU. Russia is also the world's largest exporter of wheat, accounting for 18% of international exports. Together, these areas account for over 1/4 of the world market, and 70% and 74% of Egypt and Turkey's wheat imports respectively.
Ukraine has about 1/5th of the global total and the world's largest reserves of commercial grade iron ore.
Ukraine is the 5th largest exporter of wheat and the world's largest exporter of seed oils like sunflower and rapeseed oil.
Coal mining, mechanical products (aircraft, turbines, locomotives, tractors) and shipbuilding are also of key importance to the Ukrainian economy.
China and Poland have surpassed Russia as primary trading partners to Ukraine, as Ukraine continues to try to reduce Russian leverage over its economy. Trade between Russia and Ukraine peaked in 2011 at $49B and has fallen roughly 85% since then to $7.2B in 2020.
Ukraine is still connected to the same power grid as Russia. The two countries still share economic links that continue to influence certain decision making.
The port of Sevastopol, of the southwest edge of Crimea, is one of the few ice-free deep-water ports available to Russia in the region that provides access to the Mediterranean.
Although not a NATO member, Ukraine is the 4th largest recipient of military funding from the US.
The Ukrainian War's Most Significant Trading Products and Potential Partner Impacts
Top exports for Ukraine in 2020:
Corn/Wheat/Cereals 19.1%
Iron and Steel 15.6%
Animal or Veg. Oils 11.7%
Ore, Slag, Ash 8.9%
Electrical Equip. 5.2%
Top imports for Ukraine in 2020:
Mineral Pro. 13.8%
Vehicles 11.7%
Electrical Machinery 9.9%
Pharmaceuticals 4.7%
International trade amounted to 65% of its GDP in 2020, $103B, with a strong agricultural industry.
China accounted for 54% of imports to and 46% of exports from Ukraine, $15.3B, more than double the value of any other trading partner.
Germany and Poland together accounted for $14.8B ($7.4B each), with Russia the 4th largest contributor at $7.2B. Germany and Russia had significantly higher percentages of imports to Ukraine than exports.
More than 60% of Ukraine exports to the US were iron ore and products made of iron and steel.
The largest export partners were India (vegetable fats and oils, fertilizers, nuclear reactors, boilers and machinery, pharmaceuticals) and the Netherlands (grain, metals, seed oils).
About 70% of Ukraine's trade is by sea, mostly through Odessa's ports on the Black Sea. At this writing Russia appears to be making a push to capture Odessa.
The Ukrainian War's Impact on Future Trading Partners
Four days into the war the Ukrainian President filed for special admission into the EU, which would strengthen their ever-increasing trade with EU members.
Although China is Ukraine's largest current trading partner the lack of condemnation of Russia's actions could hasten the shift toward EU and Western allies, who are united in their support of Ukraine.
The US and EU continue to commit significant financial support, certain military, and humanitarian aid to Ukraine.
It is too early to tell the ultimate result this conflict will have on international trade, but it seems likely that the countries supporting Ukraine today are likely to become top trading partners in the future.

Q: Codename one Tabs Button Styling I'm stuck with this Codename one UI component for two days and still couldn't get a proper solution...I added tabs in my application but when I run the application, the tabs I added don't look as I expected.
The height of my tab is too big and I want to reduce it.
See the screenshot of how the tab currently looks below:

And here is the code I'm using in my application:
Tabs t = new Tabs();
Style s = UIManager.getInstance().getComponentStyle("Tab");
FontImage icon1 = FontImage.createMaterial(FontImage.MATERIAL_QUESTION_ANSWER, s);

Container container1 = BoxLayout.encloseY();
Container container2 = BoxLayout.encloseY();
t.addTab("Tab1", icon1, container1);
t.addTab("Tab2", container2);

hi.add(BorderLayout.SOUTH, t);
hi.show();

A: Open your GUI Builder and style the Tab Uiid to reduce the padding as necessary:
Style the Unselected, Selected and Pressed to have the same padding size, see the image below to know the key elements to touch:

Tilt to Live is one of my all-time favorite games on the iPhone. Developed by One Man Left Studios, it's a must own on iPhone and iPod Touch for the very low price of $2.99 US. There is also a free version (Tilt to Live Lite) and an iPad version (Tilt to Live HD). My review will be specific to the iPhone/Ipod Touch version.
Sort of spilled the beans in my first paragraph but folks who know me, or have listened to me on podcasts over the past few years, will probably already know about my affinity for this game so I figured no need to keep you in suspense.
Tilt to Live strikes a unique balance between shmup and tilt controls. There are no buttons to press while playing Tilt to Live and controlling the hero requires only the tilting of your device to move.
The object across most game modes is quite simple; avoid and/or destroy the red dots. Most of the time you end up maneuvering around the screen trying to stay clear of the growing population of red dots that chase you around. Orbs/weapons aid you in your battle and they appear on screen throughout the game. Simply run your ship into each in order to gain that specific ability for immediate use. Orbs come in different colors/designs and each has it's own associated weapon. Collecting a blue orb, for example, freezes a small radius of red dots around your ship which you can immediately run through and destroy thereafter. Enemy dots remain frozen for only a few seconds however.
Playing the game is a ton of fun especially if you're into score chasing. Most games are finished in just a few short minutes and restarting is a quick touch to the screen after the current match ends. The fast and frantic action is very reminiscent of shmup gameplay even though you're not shooting anything. Hard to explain and at a minimum you should demo the Lite version to see what I mean.
The tilt controls feel very responsive with slight tilts being perfect for finite movements and bigger tilts are great for quick escapes. After a few playthroughs you really begin to grasp the controls and steering becomes almost as easy as holding an analog controller.
I mentioned score chasing earlier so obviously there's a leader board component. The game is also incorporated with Game Center so all of your friend's scores are immediately accessible. Or you can boast by posting your best score to Twitter or Facebook- got to love the social media aspect of score chasing.
There are quite a few game modes and lots to be had in this quirky little title. I highly recommend Tilt to Live. Very highly!!

Q: Save AJAX response for other functions (e.g. global variable?) I'm new to PHP, JavaScript, JQuery, JSON and AJAX. I started a few weeks ago with learning all this stuff.
My Problem:
I'm creating a website which displays data from a database. On the website it should be possible to search, order and filter the data.
For now I receive from an AJAX request a JSON_encoded array with all the data from the database. Now I'm asking whether it's possible to save the response from the AJAX request in a global variable for example so I don't need to get the data from the database again, if the user wants to order the data. (By using something like the php function "multisort()")
Or do I have to make a new query/Ajax request to order the data using in the query ORDER BY?
I've read already, that saving to a global variable doesn't work because of the     a asynchronicity of Ajax. So how is it possible to avoid many Ajax requests? or are many Ajax requests the usual solution to this problem?
I hope you're understanding my Problem.
If you want I can attach my written code, but there's no try to solve this problem, cause I want to understand what's the common solution.

A: I would think its easier and much more efficient to do it from the Database. There you have SQL to help you with the filtering and sorting. Storing it in a variable could possibly use up too much memory on the server - just to store data which is already in the Database
For each request by the user, send a request to the Database and display the data

A: If you have a user system in place, you can serialize or json_encode the data to the users session. Depends on the data to be honest though.

A: HTTP is a stateless protocol.  There are a couple ways you can do this:

*Store the data on the server.  You can use some kind of session mechanism and employ cookies so the server can keep track of user sessions.  In PHP, you would then be storing the data in the $_SESSION variable.

*Store the data on the users machine.  Send it all over on the initial request and filter as necessary using javascript.
I would recommend the first option depending on how much data you're dealing with.  Sending large amounts can impede the performance of certain browsers.  Granted, if you're not implementing sessions already, now you will have to do that.
Hope this helps :)

A: You can save your ajax response on client side in a global variable like this..  Hope this help.
if (!window.OPT) window.OPT = {};

$.ajax({ url: '/yourURL/' }).done(
      function(data) {
    OPT.AJAXResult = data ;
        } );


The Ubuntu Kernel Crash Dump is a mechanism that enable enterprise style post-mortem crash analysis in Linux operating systems. It uses a special mode of kexec which allows to automatically boot a secondary kernel whenever a crash (Oops/panic) occurs. This secondary kernel will then save the state and memory of the primary kernel to a certain location of the filesystem (/var/crash on newer releases). This file can then be used by crash to gather detailed information about the problem.
Newer versions of the package will automatically add an entry crashkernel=384M-2G:64M,2G-:128M to the kernel commandline in grub. However this may cause problems on systems with less than 2G of memory (see troubleshooting).
For those running ppc64el please follow the crash kernel recommendations found on the ppc64el Recommendations page.
For Trusty, please see here.
Unfortunately the tool does not allow to look at a 32bit dump on a 64bit system and the other way round. Also it tends to be quite picky about matching up kernel and dump.
Again, this can take a while because it needs to download the kernel debug package.
Increase the allocation by changing crashkernel= on the grub command line or in /boot/grub/grub.cfg (for grub2) or /boot/grub/menu.lst (for old grub). To avoid loosing the settings when running update-grub the change can be made in /etc/default/grub.d/kexec-tools.cfg.
# maxcpus=1 to keep things sane.
APPEND="$APPEND kdump_needed maxcpus=1 irqpoll reset_devices"
# for 64-bit ones too).
kexec -p "$KERNEL_IMAGE" --initrd="$INITRD" --append="$APPEND"
Then retest; if that doesn't work, remove the next argument, rinse and repeat.
If you see the following call trace from your serial console after kexecing into the crash kernel you may need to append 'acpi_no_memhotplug' to the crashdump kernel cmdline.
Edit KDUMP_CMDLINE_APPEND in /etc/default/kdump-tools such that it is un-commented and contains 'acpi_no_memhotplug' as well. Then restart the kdump service.
The default allocation for systems below 2G is not enough for the current initrd size. Manually adapting the size allows to use the crash kernel.
The current (1.3.7-2) version of makedumpfile reports to be incompatible with the 3.2 kernel. The dumps created seem to be ok.
The current allocation for the crashkernel value is too low to correctly load the default initrd.img. This means that the OOM killer will break the crash dump capture procedure. While the bug is being worked on, you can increase the value of crashkernel to something more than 150Mb to work around the bug.

Vir Sangvi, a popular Indian journalist, in talking about Durga Puja once said that "you can take the craze of Diwali in Delhi, Christmas in London, Summer Carnival in Rio de Janeiro, Valentine's day in Paris and then add it to the month long madness of Olympic Games or the World Cup and cram all that into a span of 5 days and you still wouldn't know what you are missing if you haven't been in Kolkata during Durga Puja". That's exactly how Durga Puja is. And when the festival comes to an end with the ritualistic immersion of the Goddess, we feel sad as a community. It's Dashami (the final day) today. If you are in Kolkata, you are either preparing for the grand sendoff, or the pandal already looks bare with only a flickering lamp that's at best a shabby evidence of the grand festival and even grander finale. If you are in Kolkata, you are probably tremendously sad. Some of you are already packing to leave the city, some of you start office again tomorrow, some of you are sad to learn that your probashi (Bengalis who live outside of Bengal) neighbor crush did not come home for pujo after all (Ooops! Sorry about that 😉 ), and some of you are worried that you may never see that cute girl/boy you struck up a conversation with at Maddox Square. The time of unrestrained joy is over. Friends will get busy again, the city will get sober, the sounds of dhaaks and the 70's R. D. Burman songs will die out, traditions will be abandoned until next sharat, the magical realism will be lifted.
But nothing to fear. Our hedonistic ancestors had this figured out. There is a reason why dashami is followed by another month of ritualistic naru and nimki eating. It is a cure for communal healing from post-puja-depression. Narkel naru has this uplifting effect–it soothes, coddles and makes you feel like all is okay in the world. Therefore, on Dashami mornings in Bengal, Bengalis undertake this elaborate project of grating coconuts, making kheer (milk solids), grinding cardamoms, churning coconut and jaggery/sugar, and finally rolling them into round shapes to be served to every guest for another month.
Mix all the ingredients in a cast iron skillet or a heavy bottomed pan (as shown in the image above).
Stir continuously until the sugar and kheer are completely melted and the mixture starts forming a lump and sticks to the spatula. Takes about 8-10 minutes.
Tranfer to a plate that has been slightly greased.
Store the narkel narus in an airtight container. It keeps for about a month.
Try any Indian grocery? They usually keep in the paneer section. Thanks for the comment, btw.
Fail-proof, idiot-proof, turns-out-great-a-100%-of-the-time recipe. Here are my rookies tips: if you are like me (with zero foresight), you can run the frozen coconut and brick of khoya through a food processor to get a powdered mixture. You can also add the sugar and cardamon in there. This does much better on the iron skillet than the straight-outta-the-freezer stuff. My very charred skillet will attest to this.

ABOUT MISSISSIPPI INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE MUSEUM
The Mississippi Industrial Heritage Museum, Inc., a non-profit corporation founded in October 2002, has tax-exempt status under the Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3). This organization owns the Soulé Steam Feed Works historic site. A 9-member board of directors governs the preservation and educational activities of the museum.
The factory (now museum) retains much of its original furnishings and equipment (about 80%). The Soule' company appears to have been trapped in time – 1920 to 1945. The belt-driven machine shop has the longest operating line drive shaft (106') in the United States. This shaft is turned by an antique three-phase electric motor and powers belt-driven machines that date back to the early 1900s.
The Soulé family operated Soulé Steam Feed Works for 110 years under founder George W. Soulé and his descendants. Mr. Soulé was a noted inventor in his day and held at least 25 U.S. patents. Most of his patents were incorporated into products that fulfilled the needs of the small to medium-sized sawmills that boomed from 1885-1930 in the South
The museum displays the company's most noted products that were sold worldwide. Soule' produced about 2,300 Rotary Steam Engines and 4,301 Spee-d-Twin Steam Engines. The last steam engine produced at the factory is displayed and operated in the steam demonstration room. A rare Soulé Rotary Steam Engine from the early 1900s is displayed and operated in steam engine demonstration room.
In 2005, preliminary Historic American Engineering Survey site documentation was started through a Summer Work Program Grant from the Riley Foundation. An extensive historical documentation and research project completed that same year revealed that Soulé Steam Feed Works was one of only five remaining late 19th/early 20th century foundry/machine shop/factories with original workings in the United States. This fact was quite a surprise considering that there were more than 1,000 such businesses prior to World War II. Soule' Steam Works was truly a rare survivor of America's industrial past. Since 2005, it has been discovered that two of these remaining sites have lost much of their original features. The Watts-Campbell Company factory site has lost its foundry and pattern shop. The roof of the machine shop and assembly area was destroyed in Hurricane Sandy. The Appomattox Iron Works in Petersburg, Virginia was damaged by a tornado in 1993. At some point afterward, the historic machinery was removed, leaving an empty building.
Now the list of comparable sites is down to three: Soule' Steam Feed Works, W.A. Young and Son's Foundry and Machine Shop (Rivers of Steel National Heritage Area, Rice's Landing, Pennsylvania) and Knight Foundry and Machine Shop (Sutter Creek, California).
The Mississippi Industrial Heritage Museum, located in the historic Soulé Steam Feed Works site, promotes the heritage, labor, and innovation that influenced and shaped our country's rise as an industrial and manufacturing pioneer.
A museum's vision is a guiding image of success formed in terms of its contribution to society. A description in words expresses the institution's eventual destination. As a public institution, the Mississippi Industrial Heritage Museum will:
Encourage a deep interest in the story of American industry by interpreting Mississippi's industrial heritage within the context of our Nation's history;
Actively develop a dynamic institution providing relevant, creative exhibitions and educational programs;
Provide an enlightening, entertaining and fun experience in an environment where visitors of all ages feel like welcomed guests;
Support lifelong learning and inspire new generations to chart their own paths of discovery;
Serve as a complimentary resource to industrial and cultural sites, historical organizations and educational institutions;
Preserve and interpret the Soule Steam Feed Works site, a Mississippi Landmark and a National Register property.
Soulé Steam Feed Works site has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1979 due to the historical significance of George W. Soulé, inventor.
The site was designated a Mississippi Landmark in October 2003.
Mississippi Industrial Heritage Museum was designated the Official State Historical Industrial Museum in July 2004 by the Mississippi legislature.

I have placed a file data.txt at location c:/temp. I will read this file in all 3 examples.
lines() method read all lines from a file to stream and populates lazily as the stream is consumed. Bytes from the file are decoded into characters using the specified charset.
readAllBytes() method reads all the bytes from a file. The method ensures that the file is closed when all bytes have been read or an I/O error, or other runtime exception, is thrown.
After reading all bytes, we pass those bytes to String class constructor to create a string.
If you are still not using Java 7 or later, then use BufferedReader class. It's readLine() method reads the file one line at a time and return the content.
Use any of above-given methods to read file into a string using java.

QOTW: Have You Ever Won a Doll?
Winning a doll, I feel, is like winning the lottery in the Blythe world. This is not to be confused with winning a purchasing lottery (e.g. you enter in an lottery for a new Blythe release, and then you win the opportunity to purchase a doll), which is not nearly as fun as you still have to spend money to get that doll in your hot little hands. I've definitely won a couple of purchasing lotteries before, but then thought the better of it after I thought about it some more (and saw promotional images) – did not regret not buying those dolls at all!
I've sort of won a doll before – the I.G. Sirenita custom Petite Blythe for BlytheCon Vancouver. My sisters were unable to attend, but they wanted to support O.W.L. so they gave me money to purchase each of them a raffle ticket. Both of them won (!) and one of them had one the I.G. Sirenita Petite. I wound up getting the doll as a birthday gift later that year, and then I named her Lark.
Have you ever won a doll? Share below!

Further research is needed on objective indicators of quality of life and on whether intra-individual shifts in affect balance are coupled with shifts in indicators of positive mental health.

Concerns The sample size isnt small, but neither is it so large that this study should be cited over 700 times before replication. It can be dysfunctional. Emotions in the Labour Process. One such ritual is preparing a dish called UgadiPachadi, which is a mixture of all kinds of taste. Employees lack of confidence in their abilities to deal with work demands and their lack of confidence in coworkers can also create prolonged negative stress. The couples were surveyed twice once at the beginning of the study, and a second time four years later.
The consequences of emotional states in the workplace, both behavioral and attitudinal, have substantial significance for individuals, groups, and society. Why do we even need negativity? Organizational- Negative feelings at work effect employee moral, turnover rate, commitment to the organization.
A manager or co-worker who displays positive emotions consistently is more likely to motivate those around him/her and have more opportunities within the company.

The luxury hotel company took camping to a whole new level and got a ton of media attention in the process. A PR Daily award, too.
We've all heard of sleeping under the stars, but have you ever heard of camping on a penthouse terrace with a fireplace, on a big bed, with fancy s'mores, a 42-inch TV and DVDs of scary movies, and an e-reader filled with camping stories?
That's what AKA Central Park, the New York flagship hotel in a chain of luxury, extended-stay hotels, offered guests for the past two summers. The novel idea drew more than 1 billion media impressions from around the world and generated what AKA estimates to be $10,000 in revenue. Revenue wasn't even a goal for the campaign. It also netted AKA top honors in the Best PR Innovation category of PR Daily's 2012 Media Relations Awards.
The hotel was looking to build a name for itself and highlight its penthouse suite. It did. The campaign doubled its website traffic. It appeared in The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, The New York Times (twice!), and many other news outlets.
Perhaps the most amazing thing about the whole campaign is the budget: It cost AKA Central Park $3,000 to add the package to its offerings. The company estimates the return on its investment was somewhere in the area of 94 to 1, based on the revenue it took in and the media it earned.

Lipid rafts and HIV-1: from viral entry to assembly of progeny virions.
Campbell SM1, Crowe SM, Mak J.
AIDS Pathogenesis Research Unit, Macfarlane Burnet Centre for Medical Research, Fairfield, Victoria 3078, Australia.
Lipid rafts are currently an intensely investigated topic of cell biology. In addition to a demonstrated role in signal transduction of the host cell, lipid rafts serve as entry and exit sites for microbial pathogens and toxins, such as FimH-expressing enterobacteria, influenza virus, measles virus and cholera toxin. Furthermore, caveolae, a specialised form of lipid raft, are required for the conversion of the non-pathogenic prion protein to the pathogenic scrapie isoform.
A number of reports have shown, directly or indirectly, that lipid rafts are important at various stages of the human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) replication cycle. The purpose of this paper is to provide a brief overview of the role of membrane-associated lipid rafts in cell biology, and to evaluate how HIV-1 has hijacked this cellular component to support HIV-1 replication. Special sections are devoted to discussing the role of lipid rafts in (1) the entry of HIV-1, (2) signal transduction regulation in HIV-1-infected cells, (3) the trafficking of HIV-1 proteins via lipid rafts during HIV-1 assembly; and a further section discusses the role of cholesterol in mature HIV-1.
Like a number of other pathogens, HIV-1 has evolved to rely on the host cell lipid rafts to support its propagation during multiple stages of the HIV-1 replication cycle. This review has highlighted the importance of lipid rafts in HIV-1 replication.

This report examines the effects of personal discrimination as experienced by the children of immigrants, particularly in school settings. Research clearly and consistently shows that the majority of of children of immigrants perceive discrimination, which can have broad psychological, physical, academic, and social consequences for immigrant children.
This report profiles the approximately 11 million unauthorized immigrants living in the United States, examining population growth trends over time by country or region of origin as well as geographic distribution by state and top county destinations. (See related interactive map here.) The report also assesses eligibility and application rates for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, analyzing differences in application rates by national origin.
This article explores differences in application and renewal rates for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program among unauthorized immigrants from Latin America and Asia. Based on interviews with immigrant advocates and service providers, it appears participation in the deportation relief program may be different among origin groups based on varying perceptions of lack of trust in government and shame over legal status, as well as political barriers.
With August 2015 marking the three-year anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, this issue brief examines the status of DACA renewal applications and adjudications, the consequences of failing to renew on time, and issues affecting renewal rates. As of March 2015, 83 percent of those eligible to renew their initial DACA grant had applied to do so—proof of the program's high value to recipients, the authors find.
The in-country refugee processing program launched in Central America by the Obama administration in December 2014 as a response to rising unaccompanied child migration may provide a legal, safe alternative to undertaking dangerous, unauthorized journeys to the United States, albeit a limited one. This report examines the Central American Minors Refugee/Parole Program, as well as the history and track record of prior U.S. in-country processing programs.
Marking the release of an MPI report, this briefing explores the effects of recent revisions in DHS immigration enforcement priorities on deportations within the U.S. interior.

Sonic Hedgehog Molecule Background
Sonic hedgehog protein (SHH) is also known as HHG-1, which belongs to the hedgehog family. SHH is expressed in fetal intestine, liver, lung, and kidney and not expressed in adult tissues. Sonic hedgehog protein can be cleavage into sonic hedgehog protein N-product and sonic hedgehog protein C-product by autolysis. SHH binds to the patched (PTC) receptor, which functions in association with smoothened (SMO), to activate the transcription of target genes. In the absence of SHH, PTC represses the constitutive signaling activity of SMO. Also regulates another target, the gli oncogene. Intercellular signal essential for a variety of patterning events during development. The C-terminal domain displays an autoproteolysis activity and a cholesterol transferase activity. The N-product is the active species in both local and long-range signaling, whereas the C-product has no signaling activity.

Q: Error INTERNAL from Firebase Cloud Function There is myFunction in Firebase Cloud Functions:
const myFunctionHandler = (params, context) => {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    return admin
      .database()
      .ref("checks")
      .push(params)
      .then((r) => resolve(r))
      .catch((e) => reject(e));
};
exports.myFunction = functions.https.onCall(myFunctionHandler);

this is how I call it from the client:
  functions()
    .httpsCallable('myFunction')({
      myParam: true,
    })
    .then(resp => console.log(resp))
    .catch(e => console.log(e));

In the Firebase Cloud Functions these are the logs:
Function execution started
Unhandled error RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

Function execution took 2438 ms, finished with status code: 500

After 2438ms the data is entered correctly in Firebase Realtime Database but the response gives [Error: INTERNAL]. Why?
[EDIT]
I've tried to copy the same database push function in the client like this:
database()
      .ref()
      .child(`checks`)
      .push(params)
      .then(r => resolve(r))
      .catch(e => reject(e));

and the response I have is: https://myApp.firebaseio.com/checks/-MHABiZl5lsDBLSP22-3 that is a positive feedback that tells me the info are stored correctly.
I aspect the same positive response from the Cloud Functions BUT what I have is the [Error: INTERNAL].
Receiving (from the function in the Firebase Cloud Functions) an Error as response the idea I have is that the info are not stored correctly.

A: Callable functions send a JSON payload to the client.  That's all they can send.  When you return a promise from a callable function, it will attempt to serialize the object resolved from the promise.  The object you're trying to send (the result of a push() is a ThennableReference) is too complex for serialization, so it fails.  It contains self-referential links, which causes the error you see.
Your question still doesn't indicate exactly what the JSON payload is supposed to be.  You're going to have to figure out what that is, and send only that object to the client.  It obviously can't be a ThennableReference.  If you need to convert that to something, figure out how to convert it, and send that object instead.

A: The same function gives different response from ether client or server.
In the FCF I just avoid it to parse the response of the push.
In the client it returns the https link as described in the google documentation.
Be sure also the localhost:5001 Node server is not running. In my case interfered.

Business Sale Agreement Template
Use our business sale agreement template to create a document that lists the terms of the transaction, the business, and any other assets included in the sale of your business.
What to Know Before Using Our Business Sale Agreement Template
A business sale agreement lays out the basics of the sale such as the purchase price, closing costs, and interest. However, there are a few more important provisions to understand before signing this document:
Most business sales need to meet certain deadlines for the purchase to make sense for the buyer. Thus, our agreement has a specific provision which states that the purchaser can demand the return of any funds paid should the terms of this business sale agreement not be completed by the scheduled date of sale.
Listing all assets included in the sale of the business is a key part of the sale. However, a purchaser also needs to understand any debts or legal issues associated with the business. Our template lays these characteristics out. The contract requires the seller to guarantee that there are no outstanding legal issues or undisclosed debts which could affect the business sale.
Attempting to mitigate conflict, our document lays out how legal issues will be settled. If any issues occur during or after the sale, these disputes must attempt to be resolved through a neutral mediator. If issues cannot be remedied through mediation, they can be taken to court.
Use our business sale agreement template to quickly create a document that protects your party's commercial interests today.

BBC News – What was behind the Bristol bus boycott?
Posted by hb in History & Heritage
BBC News – What was behind the Bristol bus boycott?.
A reminder that Britain in the swinging year of 1963 wasn't nearly as cool and as modern as we've been led to believe.
Parallels with Montgomery are clearly overstated. There was no legally sanctioned segregation, non-white bus crews were already common in other major cities and, as the story shows, many people thought that they would be more efficient than their white counterparts. (This particular piece of folk wisdom reasoned that, because of racial prejudice, a black worker or tradesmen was likely to be better qualified than his white counterpart to have got the job in the first place).
Whilst there was obviously a racial element to this incident, it seems to have been more about a thuggish closed shop defending the rights of white working class men to cling to outdated working practices and earn a decent living by working ridiculous amounts of overtime (and the rights of the bus company to pay shoddy wages). What the average Bristolian thought about riding on buses driven by men who were working 100 hour weeks is not recorded.
Anyway, Bristol hired its first non-white conductor (Raghbir Singh) in 1963. It would be another eight years (1971) before they appointed Christine Preece, their first woman bus driver.

Arming without Aiming? India's Quest for Material Power and International Influence
Shantanu Roy-Chaudhury / September 11, 2019 /	281
In terms of material military power, India does not lag far behind the traditional materially powerful states. The country ranks among the top in terms of the size of and investments in its army, air force, and navy. Furthermore, in 1998, India revealed to the world that it possessed nuclear weapons. Yet, while India has sufficient material power to be categorized as a powerful state, the country does not always think and act like a materially powerful state. For India, more material power has not been necessarily enough to ensure greater international influence. Thus far, India can be accused of 'arming without aiming' in its quest for greater international influence.
India's Material Powers
India's raw military power is impressive. The country's military consists of 4,207,250 active and reserve forces, a 2,102 strong air force (total number of aircraft), 4,426 combat tanks, and 295 naval assets which include 3 aircraft carriers. The defence budget totals $51 Billion, which makes it the 6th highest in the world.
India has been gradually arming since independence. Initially, India lacked sufficient economic, military, and political resources to project force at a distance. Yet, first under Rajiv Gandhi a dramatic modernization of the armed forces was undertaken. Over the last few years, with the economic boom, defence spending has increased substantially. From $11.8 billion in 2000 to $30 billion in 2009 to $51 billion recently. On the nuclear front, the country became a nuclear weapons state in 1998. India currently possesses 130 nuclear warheads. Reasons for going nuclear include security, domestic, and normative concerns. The security-based rationale emerged because China had already acquired nuclear weapons and there were reports that Pakistan was also on its way to becoming a nuclear state. Domestically, having the bomb served as a political tool to further the government's interests and national pride. Normatively, acquiring nuclear capabilities helped the country to be seen as a modern state which had risen above its colonial past and was now member of an exclusive club of states
India's Drawbacks
Although India is influential on the global stage, there are several drawbacks which prevent it from achieving its full potential. First, modernization efforts are bedeviled by piecemeal acquisition, uneven distribution of resources, and, the lack of coherent planning. For instance, Cohen and Dasgupta (Arming without Aiming: India's Military Modernization, 2013, p. 2) have argued that "India's military modernization suffers from weak planning, individual service-centered doctrines, and disconnect between strategic objectives and the pursuit of new technology."
Second, as Harsh Pant has argued India faces a conundrum: its political elites desperately want global recognition as a major power and all the prestige and authority associated with it. Yet, they continue to be reluctant about actually using that power in foreign affairs.
Third, there is a lack of strategic vision or national security doctrine. Policy makers are mired in the exigencies of day-to-day pressures emanating from immediate challenges rather than developing any grand strategy that clearly sets out the nation's strategic goals and priorities. There is also minimal military input into the Ministry of Defence, and due to the continuous transfer of bureaucrats, there is little institutionalized expertise within the ministry.
Taken together, disjointed efforts at modernization and acquisition the military and the lack of an underlying cohesive strategy or national security doctrine, have resulted in arming without aiming. Thus, it is unsurprising that, as Manoj Joshi has commented, statements of the Prime Minister and other officials evidence that there is confusion on what exactly nuclear weapons are all about.
What Can India Do?
Although more than adequate in its material power, this does not guarantee India international influence. India also needs to think and act like the powerful state it is.
While it is important for India to retain foreign policy autonomy, the country should more actively try to play a leading role in international institutions. Without blindly jumping on the American bandwagon (Ciociar, 2011, p. 63), furthering ties with the United States in order to balance a rising China might need to be considered. Although India is weary about directly antagonizing China, the government must be ready to step outside its comfort zone when necessary.
Although restraint has been an important aspect of India's foreign policy, "restraint is not seen as a virtue by those who want India to be a great power, a counterbalance to a rising China, and a provider of security in the international system rather than a passive recipient of the order created and managed by others" (Cohen & Dasgupta, 2013, p. 2). The country should take greater interest in issues outside its immediate neighbourhood to gain international recognition. Joining coalitions could be a start to this: "As the dominant regional power in South Asia and an aspirant to a seat on the U.N. Security Council, India is likely to be called on in the future to take an increased role in ensuring international peace and security, either under U.N. auspices or as a part of various multilateral coalitions", and therefore must be ready to take up such a role (Ladwig, 2010, p. 1171).
India already possesses the military capabilities to be counted among the world's powerful states, but thus far lacks the governmental initiative and strategic vision required to fulfill that potential. In the short-term, three actions could be taken. Within the government, an increase in military inputs on strategy and institutionalized expertise among policy planners and security experts could go a long way in ensuring resources are appropriately used. A coherent nuclear policy needs to be adopted as the current doctrine has many inconsistencies (Chari, 2000, p. 126). Last but not least, decision-makers must realize that great power status cannot 'simply' be bought. Military capabilities, while necessarily part of the equation, do not automatically result in being a great power. Establishing clear aims, consistent policies and a strategic vision is necessary for preventing India to continue the cycle of 'arming without aiming.'

The Law of Attraction is about clearly defining and stating what you want. The Universe then conspires to help you manifest it. Why this works is based on certain Universal Laws of Creation. As simple as it is, there's also more to it than waving your hand and saying ... "Open sesame!"
While you are focused on what you want, there are some common mistakes that most people make when working with the Law of Attraction. Many people learn only the "basics" of the law of attraction and unknowingly become distracted and confused by mistaken notions that give them results completely opposite of what they desire.
It is therefore important to get rid of all the distractions around you right away and undo these common mistakes because they can definitely change your life too!


Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) or Coronary Heart Disease, is a condition in which plaque builds up inside the arteries that supply your heart muscle (coronary arteries) with oxygen-rich blood. Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in blood. The build up narrows the arteries and reduces blood flow to your heart muscle. It also makes it more likely for blood clots to form in your arteries, which can partly or completely block blood flow. This can cause angine or a heart attack.
How can Coronary Artery Disease be prevented or delayed?
Taking actions to identify and control your risk factors can prevent and slow down coronary artery disease. Know your family history of health problems especially those related to coronary artery disease. Early detection, making lifestyle changes, and taking prescribed medication are important steps.
In Malaysia, Coronary Artery Disease has been the main cause of death (as stated by the Department of Statistics Malaysia for 2005 – 2008) for both men and women.


So you received an attachment in the dreaded RAR format, or even better, 7z, and you want to convert it to the files you want. What do you do?
Luckily, we have figured out a few options for you confused computer users, as they are all listed conveniently below.
However WinRAR is not free, and will continually nag you to 'register' it. Besides that, you will also receive a lot of functions that general computer users do not need. However, if you prefer installing a comprehensive and extensive shareware to extract your RAR, ZIP or 7z archives, WinRAR is the way to go.
You can download WinRAR from here.
WinZip is similar to WinRAR in a lot of ways, however, once again, it is not free. As you can expect, nag screens, reminders and other sorts of ways to get you to purchase the full version will occasionally come up. But WinZip is an extensive program, that does the basic needs of extracting ZIP, RAR and 7z files, but also integrates extensively in to your context menu even when you right click on files that are not extractable.
XetoWare has simplified the extraction process in to a simple, but powerful freeware called uZip. uZip unzips not only RAR, ZIP and 7z, but also less common archives such as gzip, tar, and ISO. On top of that, uZip does not nag you or interfere with your system's context menu: it really is a lightweight utility designed for those who just want the files inside the RAR, ZIP or 7z archives! Download uZip here.
So there you have it. Three ways to extract these different types of archives. We personally recommend you to use uZip if you just want to extract the files and move on with your work. However, WinZip and WinRar come in useful when you want to perform extensive actions such as Zip and email files, repair archives, etc. It is just a decision on if you want to purchase their full version after the trial periods expire.

Q: Maven: how to configure to use an artifact present locally (~/.m2/repository) before trying online? Having two maven projects locally, namely Authentication and Commons,
I need to use Commons as a dependency in the Authentication's pom.xml,

Isn't it possible to config the pom to first look at the local repository, then to go search it online?

A: Look at your coordinates. In authentication, you depend on io.project.commons:project-commons:
<dependency>
    <groupId>io.project.commons</groupId>
    <artifactId>project-commons</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.1.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

But the actual coordinates on the commons project are io.project:project-commons:
<groupId>io.project</groupId>
<artifactId>project-commons</artifactId>

Convert Experiences goals only tracks the first conversion of a visitor bucketed on an experiment. However, in some instance it might be pertinent to track multiple conversions.
The only way to track multiple conversions, is using the Convert Experiences goal revenue send code.
This code would need to be integrated to anything you are tracking, but you need to integrate the code to the event that you want to track.
So, you cannot track multiple goals with normal URL Goals, Click Goals, Form Submission Goals, Advanced Goals unless you use the code to submit them.
See the Pen Multiple Conversion Tracking by Convert.com (@gcrewe) on CodePen.
Then in the report you will need to look at the data differently. You will have to look at Revenue in the place of Visitors, and you will have to look at Revenue per Visitor instead of Conversion Rate. You will need to click on the dollar sign icon on top of the Revenue column, to see it.

Almost all the governments in MENA especially the ones in GCC are making their efforts to turn their countries into entrepreneurial hubs. Oman is no exception. Yes, we don't really hear as often about the startup ecosystem in Oman as UAE, Saudi or even Kuwait but the government there has been making efforts to change that.
Oman Technology Fund is one of the biggest step in a series of those efforts. Founded by country's sovereign wealth fund, Oman Technology Fund is aiming to turn Oman into a preferred destination for both local and international tech startups. The fund has committed a total capital up to $150 million in three different micro-funds: Pre-Seed Stage, Seed Stage, and VC Funds Stage.
Wadi Accelerator is one of the initiatives of Oman Technology Fund. It is a three-month seed stage acceleration program founded by Oman Technology Fund and powered by 500 Startups. The accelerator invests $100,000 in exchange of of equity in post-MVP startups from MENA, Iran, Pakistan, Ethiopia, Kenya & Tanzania. The applications for the program are currently open for its second cohort. The startup accelerates the startups with a Silicon Valley Growth Hacking program worth $30,000 that's powered by 500 Startups.
"I would like to invite the teams that have tapped into the markets of any one of our geographical focuses with scalable business model to apply. We will accelerate their growth with a Silicon Valley Growth Hacking program worth US $30K in kind and an initial investment ticket size of US $100K. With the possibility to follow-on with another US $100-400K in selective startups that have a lead investor for their next round of funding." said Sharifa AlBarami, Managing Director of Wadi Accelerator, speaking to MENAbytes.
Must be from Oman, UAE, KSA, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Yemen, Iraq, Jordan, Palestine, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Morocco, Algeria, Tanzania, Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan, Iran & Pakistan. The program will also consider applications that target any of these markets but are operating from other geographic locations.
If accepted, the founders will have to move to Muscat to join the program. Wadi will help the team with visa and other legal formalities to get them there. The accelerator will setup on Omani company for the startup. It will be a co-founder in the company but won't have any controlling interests.
The accelerator provides selected teams the facility to work from their co-working space and will also help you them source suitable accommodation, transportation and any other needs that may arise, with minimal expense.
Apart from the investment, growth-hacking program, co-working space, Wadi Accelerator also offers help through mentoring, access to resources through their partner: 500 Startups, and different learning sessions.
Even though it's not a requirement but the accelerator just like most of the acceleration programs in the region prefers teams over individuals. So if you're a startup that has a founder who takes care of the business and another one who does the tech, your chances of getting accepted are way higher than someone who's doing it all or has outsourced the tech.
The applications of program are currently open with Apr 1, 2018 as deadline. You can apply here.
