Review text originally ran in the November 30, 2017 issue of Twin Cities Gay Scene magazine.
Halsey recently brought her "Hopeless Fountain Kingdom" arena tour to St. Paul, MN. My husband and I were there covering it for Twin Cities Gay Scene Magazine.
Charli XCX did free meet and greets after her set.
For an opening act with more Top 40 hits than the headliner, Charli XCX had no pretense. Her set was refreshingly svelte, a fast and fun race through her most notable works. During her #1 Billboard Hot 100 hit "Fancy," Charli left the stage and performed in the audience; including our section, which was a treat. Her bouncing off-the-walls energy during songs like "Boys," "I Love It," and "Boom Clap" really heated up the arena on a cold winter night.
Halsey's second opening act, PartyNextDoor, was the first artist signed to hip-hop icon Drake's OVO Sound record label. Party didn't get the crowd reaction Charli XCX did, but his music did a better job priming the audience for Halsey's more mid-tempo, urban set; much of the latest Halsey album Hopeless Fountain Kingdom sounds Drake-inspired.
Halsey opened with "Eyes Closed," a slinky pop-R&B hybrid with candid lyrics about her bisexuality. It served as an apt introduction to the full functionality of her impression stage, which was framed by two gigantic 4K UHD monitors. The main feature, however, was a giant staircase covered in colorful LED screens.
Early on, Halsey declared the show an LGBT safe space. This is common practice at the more progressive pop diva shows, but Halsey paid tribute to her fellow LGBT the entire night through her tour visuals.
During "Strangers," her 4K displays played gorgeous visuals of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans couples kissing. Played at a dizzyingly fast pace, the visuals blurred those identity lines until you only saw humans kissing humans. It was a beautiful and affecting number.
In a decade of Kardashian-Jenner excess, simplicity is jarring. Halsey's show only featured one single dancer. Every arena tour-level pop star has a fleet of dancers, so this was an unexpected move… and it paid off. Their dynamic was personal, well-choreographed, and deeply thrilling to watch.
A personal connection the audience was clearly important to Halsey. Just as her idol Lady Gaga continues a personalized Twin Cities narrative each visit, Halsey spoke of her past Twin Cities stops in a romanticized way.
It worked, as the audience was one of the loudest and most engaged I've seen at Xcel Energy Center. This was especially impressive considering the upper level "nosebleed"-type seats were not utilized that evening. The more intimate crowd was almost entirely comprised of cult like super fans, who knew every word to every song.
Midway through her set, Halsey revealed that the crowd had been deliberately split in reference to her Hopeless Fountain Kingdom's Romeo & Juliet-inspired plot line. It seemed like an intentional nod to how divided America is in 2017.
With its simple yet impressive staging and execution, Halsey's "Hopeless Fountain Kingdom Tour" is a highly-recommended night for fans and members of the general public alike.
Local Vine legend Gavin was there. His uncle Nick Mastodon published his meet and greet photos with Halsey! The adorable meet and greet made a big splash across Twitter and even made headlines with digital platforms like PopBuzz.


To us, craft means always starting from raw ingredients, adding only water to our spirits, and letting nature run its course inside our whiskey barrels.
We'd rather go back to working in Finance than make compromises. So we'll never source mature spirits, add flavoring or coloring, or use chemical engineering to circumvent aging tradition.
We don't just make our spirits from scratch, though. We also develop our own recipes by following our taste buds. Rather then sticking to tradition, this approach has led us to create spirits that taste different than the other bottles on the shelves.
Each step, from milling grains into flour to bottling, takes place on 19th Street in Sunset Park, Brooklyn.

Croydon Review at 4 December
Posted on December 4, 2021 by seancreighton1947
The Cabinet plans to axe more than 50 staff in a bid to balance its budget on Monday evening. The trade unions and voluntary sector activists will be demonstrating outside the Town Hall. Unite the Union, Unison & GMB will be outside Croydon Town Hall from there from 5pm, demonstrating & lobbying against the proposed £38 million cuts to jobs and services. 'Please come along and help us send a clear signal to Croydon Council and the Tory Government that these cuts are unacceptable.'
Effects of Cuts on CVS
Cabinet Member for Communities, Councillor Manju Shahul-Hameed, will have to try and justify the cuts and their effect on the community and voluntary sector when she takes part in the Community & Voluntary Sector Alliance Zoom meeting on Thursday 9 December (10am-noon). To book go to
www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/croydon-voluntary-sector-alliance-cvsa-meeting-tickets-198118707387
Local Plan and Borough of Culture Consultations
The Cabinet will also approve the Local Plan Review documents. The six-week Local Plan Review consultation will start in January says Oliver Lewis, the relevant Cabinet member on the Council's Your Croydon news webpages. This is a relief as time does not have to be spent over the Xmas period analysing the documents.
Other forms of tokenistic consultation continue, such as the 3rd January deadline for cultural organisations to indicate their plans for 2023, designed to help the team 'gauge interest at this stage to help define the criteria for allocating funding, and feedback and feedback on the London Borough of Culture development plans. See www.getinvolved.croydon.gov.uk/lboc-culture-network
Issues In The Mayoral Contest
As the Cabinet member responsible for the cuts budget Callton Young will damage his attempt to be selected as Labour's candidate for Mayor in May. Many may argue that the Leadership has no option in order to have the loan sanction support of the Government. It failed to develop an alternative campaigning plan. Whether Young or Val Shawcross are selected they will need to develop a plan (see some ideas below).
On Tuesday 7 December at a meeting led by Jason Perry their Mayoral candidate the Tories will try to capture some Residents Associations' activists again, as they did with the elected Mayor campaign initiated by Chris Philp at one of the Tory planning meetings with the RAs. RAs are of course non-party political organisations and their leaders need to be careful about being seen to be party politically orientated which may alienate some of their members.
Whether it is Val Shawcross or Callton Young who is selected as Labour's Mayor candidates, they will need to organise a series of meetings with RAs and community and voluntary groups to find out what their concerns about the future are and what they want the Mayor to try and do. They should also try and attend the CVA run Locality Partnership meetings.
Climate Change Action In Croydon
To coincide with COP26 in Glasgow Croydon Central MP Sarah Jones 'held a Croydon Climate Forum at the Town Hall. We talked about the necessity to think global but act local. There are some amazing people in Croydon doing amazing things, trying to make the small changes and the small projects that all contribute to the meaningful change that we need to save the planet from climate catastrophe. We heard from the Eco Council at Oasis Rylands School, local community action groups such as Croydon Climate Action, local teacher and climate champion Amy Foster, Cllr Muhammad Ali and others. I want to build on the projects that people are already engaged in and take advantage of the excitement stemming from COP to help make Croydon a place where people can walk and cycle and enjoy our green spaces which we are so lucky to have here.'
Comment: Although there are a committed and growing number of climate change activists in Croydon the main concerns residents appear to have increasingly centre around litter, fly-tipping, failures in waste and garden collections, competition in parking, the growing neglect of parks and open spaces. Community activism is very fragmented and there is no sign yet that those who joined the COVID 19 Mutual Aid Groups are becoming active in existing community groups. The latter are also experiencing a reduction in activists due to age, ill-health, family care responsibilities. Added to this is the weariness resulting from the apparent inability to influence an increasingly incompetent Council. Most residents appear to be concentrating on dealing with the complexity of their daily lives, particularly those experiencing problems with fuel and water bills, rising prices, etc. They may not be open to community activism around the doomsday scenario of climate change. Environmental and climate change activists perhaps need to consider how they package together a whole range of concerns starting with those that immediately effect people: from the street environmental issues, to the damaging effects of planning decisions, the need to ensure protection of parks and open spaces, and in Croydon's case the forthcoming Local Plan Review and public inquiry. i.e. a holistic package.
Andrew Kennedy posted this comment on the Croydon Town Transition Facebook and has generated some critical comments.

Health and Welfare Issues
A COVID Update from Croydon's Director of Public Health is on Your Croydon.
Sarah Jones, MP reports in her latest newsletter that her 'office continues to receive a high number of cases' and constituents contact her 'about a range of issues from overcrowded housing through to anti-social behaviour concerns. With the colder weather I have noticed a spike in hot water and heating related cases, as well as a rise in properties having mould and damp issues.'
Croydon Council and the local NHS are highlighting top tips on winter health to ensure residents keep warm and well and look after themselves, their home and others to fend off winter bugs and illness – Council's Your Croydon pages. Much of this seems to be digital so will it reach those most in need of help?
Croydon MPs News
Croydon North MP Steve Reed is now Labour's shadowing justice speaker, covering courts, prisons and probation.
After lobbying by Sarah Jones and other MPs the Government has announced changes to the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill stating that assaults committed against shopworkers should be recognised as an aggravated offence – resulting in tougher sentencing for offenders. Jones's efforts were triggered by meeting the Co-op Area Manager about the 'troubling increase in violence and abuse against retail workers in recent years – with a significant increase during Coronavirus, a time when shop workers were already working under increased strain.'
Jones also reports that sexual and domestic abuse against women and girls will finally be recognised as 'serious violence' by the Government, following pressure from her and other MPs, after lobbying by her and colleagues.
Jones gave the keynote speech at the recent Develop Croydon conference. She
'spoke of the many benefits that Croydon brings, with its green spaces, culture, cheaper office spaces, and fantastic access to Central London, but told delegates of the need to 'level up'. London is the most fantastic city in the world: it really is the engine room of the UK. But in Croydon great prosperity sits alongside high levels of inequality and poverty. South London has lost out on regeneration: we have not seen a commitment to infrastructure as we should have done. Croydon must not be left behind: it has huge potential to grow. I want to see the tram extended, east Croydon station redeveloped and Croydon made zone 4.'
She was also interviewed on BBC Radio Sussex and Surrey about the greener side of Croydon. You can listen to the full episode here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p09zf0pc
My London News has an article on the history of the IKEA Towers.
Developing a Mayoral Campaigning Strategy
A starting off point could be the approach I outlined in my letter to the Secretary of State of 4 February 2020, copied to the Council leadership and ignored by both:
amending the local government funding formula to recognise the extent of Croydon's Inner London needs;
moving more civil servants into Croydon empty office buildings after the end of the COVID pandemic;
purchasing and leasing back Bernard Weatherill House to the Council;
approving and funding a Croydon Bank to enable the Council, the NHS, Croydon College, and businesses to invest in Croydon;
re-determining the fare zoning structure between Norbury and East and West Croydon to reduce computing from the south and resultant air pollution along London Rd;
improving private tenants' rights including on length of tenancies, evictions and rent levels;
exempting Croydon from meeting the housing targets in the London Plan in favour of a requirement of planning applicants to meet local housing need as identified by the Council, with an emphasis on providing new homes at rents equivalent to those levied by the Council for the housing towns;
legislating a requirement that the Whitgift Foundation as freeholder owner of the Whitgift Centre to contribute money to the Council for Town Centre investment.'
agreeing additional funding allocations to Croydon for:
skills training and the creation of green jobs;
joint action with the Environment Agency to improve anti-flooding measures, including along the Norbury Brook;
the sustainability and development of community and voluntary and social enterprise sector organisations;
the expansion of youth, mental health and domestic violence services and projects;
for all libraries to remain open and improve their offer to be developed by joint management committees with residents organisations and library users;
for work on improvements to parks and green spaces in partnership with Friends groups through joint management committees, including providing specialist skills training;
the implementation of the Town Centre District Heating Scheme;
the creation of neighbourhood decision making committees comprised of the local Councillors, community and voluntary, businesses and workforces in order to ensure that the Council's projects and services are meeting local needs.
Experience of dealing with the Council raises the following questions, which the Mayoral and Council candidates for May need to think about:
Is it time to give up the delusion that we can be constructive critical 'friends' of the Council?
Is it time to turn the heat up on the Council leadership who do not appear to be in control, are still subject to dominance by officers?
How can the leadership justify the fiasco over the installation of new digital bus shelters when they took out the old ones?
Is it time for a backbench revolt – they have nothing to lose given many are not standing again and those that may be re-elected will have even less influence when the Mayor is in charge from May?
Is it essential to ensure a Mayor is elected who is not contaminated by the incompetence of the last eleven years?

Review: Broken Age (Part 1) (PC)
Tim Schafer earned renown by working on iconic adventure games in the '90s. With Broken Age he marks his return to the genre, riding on the back of a prolific Kickstarter campaign that raised millions. Now that we finally have the first half, it's clear: He still has the magic.
A tale of two souls
Part of Broken Age's appeal lies in its dual narrative. On one hand we have Vella Tartine (Masasa Moyo), a young baker girl with no intention of being a maiden sacrifice. In Shay Volta's (Elijah Wood) case, he's stuck aboard a spaceship run by an overprotective A.I. (Jennifer Hale), passing his days with "rescue missions" designed for young children.
Vella's tale is one steeped in adventure, taking her across villages as charismatic as her own. She'll meet characters like Harm'ny Lightbeard (Jack Black), a man so obsessed with lightness that he shed a letter from his name. There's Curtis (Wil Wheaton), the lumberjack who suspects that trees are out for revenge. And then there's the talking tree, who confirms Curtis' reputation as a furniture-making mass-murderer.
Shay's story is, by design, far less exciting. It's hard not to feel sorry for him, forced to a life of repetition. The breakfast cereals never change, the adventure simulations are the same, and dinner is always represented by a single pill. It's no wonder he sighs all the time.
In a moment of defiance, Shay happily fumbles one mission and inadvertently meets Marek (David Kaufman), a stowaway in a wolf costume. The man's proposition of saving real hostages is too good to pass up, and thus begins Shay's real adventure.
Players can at any point swap between the two protagonists. It'll pick up where you left off so there's no missed content, though there is the risk of ruining the pace. However you choose to approach it, I feel that finishing Shay's story first would have a bigger payoff in this half's conclusion.
Doubly fine production values
Fans of Schafer's earlier work may find the humor in Broken Age fairly subdued. It's certainly present but this is no Secret of Monkey Island or Day of the Tentacle. That said the game makes up for it by addressing, or hinting at, several important issues throughout.
Sometimes it's as obvious as Vella breaking the maiden sacrifice trope and saving the day; other times it's a tree admonishing humans for our reckless destruction of nature. And what of Shay, immediately trusting the mysterious Marek? Rather than feel overbearing, these themes simply add an extra sheen to an already enjoyable story.
The great presentation helps too. I couldn't appreciate Broken Age's design initially, what with all the other beautiful 2D games out there, but it didn't take long for the stylized look to grow on me. There's a painterly charm that's reminiscent of the pixel-edged classics, not to mention the use of colors being to good effect. Here is an art style that supports the storytelling, rather than being the key selling point.
I've been naming the voice talents where possible because dialogue in an adventure game is crucial – a storyteller with bad delivery isn't going to captivate many. While there's the novelty of having celebrities, the majority of the cast actually do voice-acting for a living. And it shows, as each character you meet brims with life. Although Double Fine probably went over budget here, the end result almost seems justifiable.
Not too long on the puzzles
The biggest strength of Broken Age actually lies in its simple puzzles. I know purists might argue against this but adventure games can suffer from convoluted designs that end up doing more harm than good. Where this game is concerned story reigns supreme, and having the player stuck too long just won't do. If it's challenge you're looking for then there are plenty of alternatives – Amanita Design's Machinarium comes to mind.
As it turns out, the Steam listing for Broken Age promises the following key feature: "This one really hard puzzle that you won't get but you'll look it up online and not tell anybody." Indeed, they delivered on that one during Vella's part. Otherwise, the puzzles are all pretty intuitive, leaving me to my own devices. Interacting with everything on-screen out of curiosity and not necessity sure is liberating.
There's not much else to the gameplay, really. It's a point-and-click in the truest sense after all. The user interface is a lot cleaner, removing the traditional "Pick Up" and "Inspect" in favor of context-sensitive clicks. Don't expect to find quick-time events here either because there are none.
If there's one complaint I have it'll be the lack of line-by-line text advancement. I played through Broken Age twice and the only option I was given is to skip the dialogue or cut scene entirely. Accidentally skipping something can pose a problem here. However, chances are that many won't have to deal with these minor shortcomings.
A great pairing for everyone
Broken Age is a game I'd enjoy and happily endorse to family and friends. That honor has almost always gone to party games so it's nice to add a lighthearted, story-centric title up on that pedestal. If you ever need to show how games can be more than score-chasing or digital violence, this is your example.
The only thing holding back a full recommendation is that Broken Age isn't finished. Should that stop you from buying it? Not really, unless you hate the idea of waiting months for Part 2 or look at value from an hours-per-dollar perspective. Instead, what you get for your money is a charming little adventure that's funny, insightful and honestly entertaining.
Yes, the second half coming "later this year" might not turn out as good. Even so, it's a small risk worth taking for what Double Fine accomplished here.
Broken Age (Part 1) (PC)
A great story fit for all ages.
Charming presentation voiced by notable personalities.
Intuitive puzzles that don't leave you frustrated.
No option to advance dialogue without skipping
THE VERDICT: PLAY IT
Broken Age is in development by Double Fine Productions for Windows, Mac and Linux. Part 1 is now available for US$24.99 (SG$30+) with Part 2 releasing later this year.

Review: The emotional odyssey of Sea of Solitude


Don't miss your chance to explore the Sacred Valley on this off the beaten path adventure! Mountain biking the beautiful landscapes of the Sacred Valley will (literally) take your breath away!
You will be picked up from your hotel at 9am via private van with your FlashpackerConnect guide and crew. After a 1.5 hour journey through the beautiful countryside with snowcapped mountains in the distance you will reach the village of Cruz Pata at 3550m. This will be the starting point for the biking tour. From here, you'll get familiar with your biking equipment and after going over a few safety procedures the ride begins. During the first part of the ride we'll pass a beautiful lake, climb some up- hills and enjoy some fast downhills with optional single-tracks for those who like it a bit more technical.
The scenery is unforgettable with excellent views of the Veronica mountain range. The first main stop will be at the Incan agricultural testing site of Moray (3575m) and we'll take a break here to catch our breath and explore the area. Continuing the ride, we'll arrive to Maras where we'll have our lunch break. After lunch, we'll carry on riding to the crystal-white terraces of the pre Incan salt mines of Maras, and then continue on the best downhill of the day – a 30 minute downhill on a llama path ending on the bank of the Urubamba river (2875m). Here we finish the tour and return to Cusco, arriving back to your hotel around 5pm.

@Zackmann08: in most cases, IRS is used repeatedly on the articles where it is called. IR is used once. At the longest, IRS shows the marker graphic for the highway, the name, a small color bar (using the same color coding scheme as the headers in IR), the location, length, dates, history and tourist routes. (If used for Australia, a route number line is added at the bottom and the marker graphic above is omitted.) It also does so in a physically narrower box. Compare that to IR, which uses a larger marker graphic, displays a map, can display a photo, has parameters for the maintenance organization/agency, legal definition, roadway allocations, a whole junction list section (or sections for segmented highways), a whole section for locations (states/counties/cities/other divisions), a whole section for links to the highway system/roadway network with links to the previous/next highway designation in sequence in addition to the length, dates, history and tourist routes information in IRS. It does all of this with a variety of regionalizations for various countries of the world. That customization, absent the one use case for Australia is unneeded in IRS.

If you live in a tornado prone area, one of the wisest and least expensive things you can do to protect your family is to purchase a "weather radio" These "radios" are available at stores such as Radio Shack, and through the Wind and Weather Catalog. The prices vary from $30 to $80, depending on the model and features. There is even a model to take on a hike, picnic, or when you are in your car, complete with a compass!
Growing up in Florida, I remember my father's weather radio being on constantly, but new models can be set to be activated only when a severe weather warning is issued. If you know which direction the weather always comes from, you can even preset which "stations" you want to receive(SAME, or Specific Area Message Encoding). And there is battery back-up, of course. When the weather radio is activated, a loud alarm sounds to catch your attention, even if you are sleeping.
In determining whether or not a NOAA radio would be a good investment for your family, ask yourself these questions. There are no right or wrong answers here, but your answers may help you decide whether you should make the purchase.
Do I watch or listen to a morning and/or evening weather forecast every day?
Am I aware of the weather or do I tend to ignore what is going on outside because I am wrapped up in my own activities?
Am I more likely to change my schedule for outdoor activities if the weather looks stormy, or do I always stick to my original plans, whatever the weather?
Do I always have a regular radio on during stormy weather?
Does that radio use local programming or a pre-programmed music package?
Do I always have a television set on during stormy weather, tuned to a local channel?
Or does the television signal come off of a cable, satellite dish, or DSS from a remote city?
Given the cost of shelters, not everyone can afford or even NEED a shelter. If your home has a basement and a sturdy stairwell going to it, that will most likely be completely adequate. Remember, the risk from tornadoes is incredibly low. But if the answers to those questions tell you that you are not a "severe weather aware" as you feel you should be, a weather radio may provide you with some peace of mind, and in the unlikely event that a tornado does strike your area, a few minutes extra warning time. And if you live in a trailer, a home constructed of unmortared concrete blocks, or sitting on blocks rather than bolted to a slab or foundation, it may make the difference between life and death.

KHARTOUM — A group that is spearheading anti-government protests across Sudan on Saturday said it plans to launch more nationwide rallies over the next few days, including a march on parliament.
Protests have rocked Sudan since December 19, when the government raised the price of bread, and since then have escalated into rallies against President Omar Al Bashir's three-decade rule.
The Sudanese Professionals Association, an umbrella group of trade unions, in a statement called for a march on parliament on Sunday to submit to lawmakers a memorandum calling for Bashir to step aside.
''We are calling for a march to parliament in Omdurman on Sunday,'' it said, referring to Khartoum's twin city, where parliament is located.
''The protesters will submit to parliament a memorandum calling on President Bashir to step down,'' added the association, which represents the unions of doctors, teachers and engineers.
''And on Thursday there will be rallies across all towns and cities of Sudan,'' the statement added.
On Friday, hundreds of mourners leaving the funeral of a protester had staged a spontaneous demonstration in the capital's Burri district, while crowds of Muslim worshippers had launched another rally in a mosque in Omdurman, witnesses said.
Protesters chanting ''freedom, peace, justice'' have been confronted by riot police with tear gas at several rallies since the first protest erupted in the eastern town of Atbara on December 19 after the rise of bread price.
The government's tough response has sparked international criticism, while Bashir has blamed the violence on unidentified "conspirators".
Analysts say the protests have emerged as the biggest challenge to the veteran leader's rule, who swept to power in 1989 in an Islamist-backed coup.

L'Acord de Potsdam (en alemany: Potsdamer Abkommen) va ser l'acord entre tres dels Aliats de la Segona Guerra Mundial, el Regne Unit, els Estats Units, i la Unió Soviètica. Va tractar l'ocupació militar i la reconstrucció de la Alemanya ocupada pels aliats, els seus territoris orientals d'Alemanya, i tot l'Escenari Europeu de la Segona Guerra Mundial. També va tractar la desmilitarització d'Alemanya, les reparacions alemanyes per a la Segona Guerra Mundial i el processament dels criminals de guerra.

Executat com a comunicat, l'acord no era un tractat de pau d'acord amb llei internacional, tot i que va crear fets assolits. Va ser substituït pel Tractat de la Liquidació Final amb respecte a Alemanya signat el 12 de setembre de 1990.

Com que De Gaulle no havia estat convidat a la Conferència, els francesos es van resistir a aplicar els acords de Potsdam dins de la seva zona d'ocupació. En particular, els francesos es van negar a resoldre els expulsats alemanys de l'est. A més, els francesos no van acceptar cap obligació d'acatar l'Acord de Potsdam en els processos del Consell de Control Aliat; en particular, resistir totes les propostes per establir polítiques i institucions comunes a tot el conjunt d'Alemanya, i qualsevol cosa que temés podria conduir a l'aparició d'un eventual govern alemany unificat.

Chimneys can make a lot of unexpected noises, it could be a pressure difference between your home, chimney and the outside air, or it could be a flock of chimney swifts nesting in your chimney.
Is your chimney making funny noises? Have an expert take a look!
These beautiful birds can quickly turn into pests if they decide to nest within your Chimney. Due to the fact that they are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, they have to be removed by a professional with a Federal Permit.
If you do happen to notice chirping coming from your chimney, then make sure to call Emberstone Chimney Solutions as soon as possible. We can have them safely removed, and then install measures to ensure that no future bird(or other furry critter) can nest in your Chimney.

Q: How to fix calling index in event handler returning NaN in react? When calling index for the event handler handleRemoveItem(event), the index of the span tag returns NaN when trying to parseInt(event.target.id)
I'm trying to create a simple ReactJS program that will populate div's with user entered data, and then can be deleted by clicking on the div
The following code is a component that is exported to the index.js file
import React from "react";
import "./styles.css";

export default class DivList extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super();
    this.state = { text: "", filter: "", data: [] };
  }

  handleInputChange(event) {
    let text = event.target.value;
    this.setState({ text });
  }

  clearTheArray = () => {
    this.setState({ data: [] });
  };

  handleButtonClick(event) {
    if (this.state.text.length > 0) {
      let data = this.state.data.slice();
      data.push(this.state.text);
      let text = "";
      // TODO: Update state with data and text
      this.setState({ text });
      this.setState({ data });
    }
  }

  handleRemoveItem(event) {
    let newIndex = parseInt(event.target.id, 10);
    console.log(event.target.id + " is the actual index");
    let dataCopy = this.state.data.slice();
    console.log(newIndex + " is the index");
    dataCopy.splice(newIndex, 1);
    this.setState({ data: dataCopy });
  }

  render() {
    let data = this.state.data.slice();
    let list = data.sort().map((elem, index) => (

        {" "}

 {elem}
{" "}

    ));
    return (

Dynamic Div

Sort and filter

        Enter text:
        <input
          type="text"
          value={this.state.text}
          onChange={e => this.handleInputChange(e)}
        />

        {/*console.log(data) */}
        <button onClick={this.handleButtonClick.bind(this)}>Add</button>

        <button type="button" onClick={this.clearTheArray}>
          {" "}
          Reset{" "}
        </button>

        {list}

    );
  }
}

I expect to be able to click on a  element on the page, and see it get deleted.
However, the first  element gets deleted when I click any of the  elements, instead of the one I clicked. I believe this is a problem with my indexing but I can't figure out what's causing it

Step into a whimsical wonderland with Julianna's christening! For this delightful celebration, Party Deco came up with an Alice in Wonderland bash with whimsical vintage touches. The result was this lovely tea party filled with pastels and petals. This party is surely one dream we don't want to wake up from!
What's Alice in Wonderland without the White Rabbit? Those miniature moss bunny topiaries look so adorable!
Check out that grand dessert table by Crafty Cakes and Cupcakes! It reminds me of the actual tea party portrayed in the film, only perhaps more elegant with all the whimsical details.
But as a literature-loving person, what excited me the most about the set-up were the books and pages used to decorate the centerpieces, and even the dessert table backdrop. So pretty!


Having a good financial dashboard is among the best practices used by successful companies to make better business decisions. Knowing what parts of your business are working, where your operations are aligned and what needs your attention is essential.
Financial performance dashboards are particularly well suited to small business owners who are seeking a process to help benchmark themselves or need a tool to help keep them on track.
There are dashboard technologies that can help you and your departments establish an integrated continuous improvement process, setting measureable goals and translating them into action with less time and fewer resources. The dashboard concept is not limited to owners and finance officers, though. Salespeople need to monitor and track multiple accounts and field managers need a dashboard to manage labor and job costs; every unit needs feedback and analysis that helps it manage and aggregate its data and performance levels better. As an owner you need to know where you stand every day. One of the biggest issues faced by owners is cash flow.
know daily, weekly and monthly, it's not uncommon for an owner to have a daily, weekly and monthly dashboard.
As you can see, it's helpful to have a dashboard so you can judge your company's health in real time. It may help you to sleep better knowing the overall big performance picture—where your company is headed and the challenges you face—rather than worrying about whether you made it through the day without any surprises.

Court strikes down Louisiana law that abortion doctors must have admitting privileges at local hospital
This morning the Supreme Court struck down a Louisiana law that required doctors who perform abortions to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital. The issue in June Medical Services LLC v. Russo, was whether this limit actually protected the health of pregnant women and wasn't in place just to make it more difficult to have an abortion. This was very similar to the issue the Court last visited in 2016 (Whole Woman's Health v. Hellerstedt) when it overturned a Texas abortion doctor admitting privileges requirement.

This is a feature that's been inserted in RPi.GPIO to enable you to query the setup status of a port to see how it's configured.
So you'll then be able to determine the setup status of a port from within a script. I've written a little Python script (for B+, but could be modified for other Pis) to query the status of all the ports, then translate the numerical return codes into something a little more 'human readable'. It uses a simple dictionary, which is a really useful feature of Python (Line 20).
The script shows what each of the ports/pins is set up to do. The screen-shots show what the output looks like in each mode.
I have spi and i2c enabled, Serial is enabled by default and all other ports are set up as inputs by default.
It's probably something you won't use every day, but if you don't know it exists, you can't use it can you? Have fun.
Click here to see the full index of my RPi.GPIO tutorials.
For an 'extra credit' challenge, you could modify the above script to check what revision of Pi it's running on and choose which ports/pins to test accordingly.
Unless I've made a mistake, they should be in the order of "left column top to bottom, then right column top to bottom" i.e. according to the physical layout on the B+.
How did you know about this function, is there an official list somewhere that tells you of any new functions etc. when there is an update.
I found it in the RPi.GPIO documentation over at sourceforge. But I had to check some stuff with Ben Croston before I understood it properly.
I noticed it in the release notes.
Hi.. It will be interesting to modify your code to show PIN Status with HIGH, LOW, Error? etc… Can you pls include that change as well so everything is there to see.
The copy code to clipboard function doesnt work?
But you could also try "View Plain" and then copy it with your mouse.
I have updated and upgraded using the 'sudo apt-get' routine but no difference!

On the struggle of Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh
October 23, 2016 BabakJoy2014
It's so easy to lose your bearings today when you come up against the cacophonies & confusions of politics. Who can you believe anymore? Nobody wants to stand with the oppressors accidentally only because their lies get better press than the truths of the oppressed.
There is no golden measure for how to unravel social & political complexities. It's been an issue of dispute among philosophers & historians for a few thousand years. Method matters but there are some red alerts, some things that signal where justice & injustice lie. First would be the use of militarism & bombers against civilian populations. The most important freedom struggles in the world don't have a single bomber between them. Rocks & slingshots are the best they can come up with to back their indomitable spirit for justice.
Second would be where & whose children are being harmed? Sounds so sentimental, even simple-minded, but can you think of a single place on Mother Earth where one cannot distinguish oppressor from oppressed by answering that question? Not in a world where the welfare of all children is the only gold standard for justice.
This young boy is 10-year-old Anuwar, a Rohingya refugee living in an unregistered camp in Kutupalong in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. His dad is a day laborer & his mom stays home with him & his 3-year-old brother. He can't go to school because the UNHCR does not provide formal education or any other assistance to unregistered refugees. They can get elementary education in community-run learning centers but an elementary education won't take you very far in getting out of poverty–especially in a country where you are a refugee & have no citizenship rights. But of course Anuwar's real handicap is being Rohingya.
Tens of thousands of children denied education, clean water, adequate food, decent housing, safe living conditions, only because they are Rohingya.
They always say one of capitalism's chief merits is its creativity. Myanmar capitalism & all those foreign investors & supporters are going to have to draw on that exhausted, if not also mythical, merit to invent justifications for the continuing genocide & persecution of Rohingya in Arakan State. Because Rohingya activists in exile are now taking it on internationally.
When we see the suffering of children in Palestine, Kashmir, Myanmar, the US Black community, Syria, & elsewhere, getting past the white noise of propaganda to find our way to justice becomes a whole lot easier. What's that saying from Isaiah in the Bible about "a little child will lead them?"

The Federal Government and the 36 states of the federation as well as the Federal Capital Territory grew the country's external loan commitments from $10.32bn in June 2015 to $22.07bn in March 2018, investigation has shown.
This reflects an increase of $11.76bn or 113.94 per cent growth in the country's external debt within 33 months. The period is within the presidency of Muhammadu Buhari, as he took over the reins of government on May 29, 2015.
In naira terms, statistics obtained from the Debt Management Office in Abuja on Monday showed that the country's external loans rose from N2.03tn as of June 31, 2015 to N6.75tn as of March 31, 2018. This reflects an increase of 232.51 per cent.
The difference, when the external debt is denominated in naira, reflects the beating that the local currency has taken since 2014 following the dwindling of the nation's capacity to accumulate foreign currencies as a result of the steep fall in the price of crude oil, the main foreign exchange earner for the country.
The domestic debt of the country rose from N10.09tn as of June 2015 to N15.96tn as of March 2018. This reflects an increase of N5.87tn or 58.23 per cent within the period of analysis.
Taken together, the country's public debt rose from N12.12tn as of June 31, 2015 to N22.71tn as of March 31, 2018. This reflects a difference of N10.59tn or a percentage increase of 87.37 per cent within a period of 33 months.
Broken down, the Federal Government component of the domestic loans stood at N12.58tn, while the states' component stood at N3.38tn as of March 2018.
The increasing percentage of the external loans is a reflection of the country's current debt management strategy, which targets to raise the debt ratio to 40 per cent external and 60 per cent local.
As of June 2015, the ratio stood at 16.77 per cent for external and 83.23 per cent for domestic. As of March 2018, it stood at 27.71 per cent external and 72.29 per cent domestic. Currently, there are ongoing foreign loans deals and negotiations that can bring the nation nearer to the 40 per cent target.
The country's Debt Management Strategy 2016–2019 made a case for an increase in external financing with a view to rebalancing the public debt portfolio in favour of long-term external financing in order to reduce the debt service cost and lengthen the maturity profile.
In the document, the DMO stated, "To achieve a significant reduction in cost would require that the government accesses relatively cheaper long-term external financing in such a way that it first maximises the available funds from the concessional and semi-concessional sources, taking into account what may be readily available within a given period, after which other external sources would be accessed.
"Further lengthening of the maturity profile of the domestic debt portfolio through reduction in the issuance of new short-dated debt instruments or refinancing of maturing NTBs with external financing or both.
The Federal Government had in 2017 borrowed from the international capital market to refinance $3bn maturing domestic debts as part of its overall debt management strategy of reducing debt service costs.

Introduction by

Director, Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Program
CSIS Building – 4th Floor Conference Room
1800 K Street NW,
The events of 9/11 spotlighted for the world Al Qaeda's transformation from a small band of revolutionary terrorists attacking Western targets in the Middle East to a highly organized group effecting deadly attacks on a global scale. But a decade of unyielding pressure by the United States and its allies has undermined the group: AQ's core -- with its leadership structure in disarray, financial pipelines choked off, and operational capabilities in severe decline -- is at its weakest point in years.
In The Al Qaeda Factor (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2011), author Mitchell D. Silber examines sixteen Al-Qaeda-associated attacks launched against Western interests since 1993 and identifies potential points of vulnerability that could raise the odds of thwarting future terrorist attacks in the West. To discuss his new publication, CSIS cordially invites you to a breakfast discussion with Mr. Silber.

Your 2022 Money Horoscope Is Here
Story from Horoscopes
Your 2022 Money Horoscope Is Here, & These Dates May Make Or Break Your Budget
Lisa Stardust
The financial astrological forecast for 2022 is overall positive. The one thing to watch out for is how we invest our time and energy. It's inadvisable to give freely to others, especially if it's a service, unless they're reciprocating in some financial way. Giving too much money will not only deplete our bank accounts, but it's also vampiric.
These are the important astrological dates in 2022: The year commences during Venus retrograde in Capricorn. The planet of money will begin to function normally on January 29 and heighten our cash flow. The first Venus Star Point of 2022 — when the Sun, Earth, and Venus align in the sky — occurs on January 8 in Capricorn. The second one occurs on October 22 in Libra. During these times, we can expect a financial boost to come our way.
Mercury retrograde occurs four times in 2022: from January 14 to February 3 in Aquarius and Capricorn, from May 10 to June 3 in Gemini and Taurus, from September 9 to October 2 in Libra and Virgo, and from December 29 to January 18, 2023 in Capricorn. It's advisable to keep receipts on large purchases made during this time, as we may be inclined towards impulse buys — which we will later regret. Make sure that there is a flexible return policy, as we may change our minds after the retrograde is over.
The North Node of Destiny moves into Taurus on January 18, bringing the South Node into Scorpio. As a result, we'll adopt the motto of working smarter for more money, not harder for the same amount of cash. Also notable: Uranus and the North Node of Destiny connect in Taurus on July 31, giving us a big surprise (ie: stimulus check) in investments. This may be a good day to watch the stock market and the value of cryptocurrency closely.
There are also four eclipses in 2022 to be aware of: the solar eclipse in Taurus on April 30, the lunar eclipse in Scorpio on May 16, the solar eclipse in Scorpio on October 25, and the lunar eclipse in Taurus on November 8. These eclipses are strengthening our bank accounts — if we make sound judgements in how we spend and save.
Venus and Mars will connect two times in 2022: February 12 on Capricorn and on March 12 in Aquarius. This will boost the nodal and energy of the year, by making us want to be ballers and mindful of our spending. Meanwhile, expansive Jupiter and elusive Neptune link up in Pisces on April 12, making us cautious of who we loan money to and what we purchase. Later in the month, Mars's retrograde from October 30 to January 12, 2023 in Gemini allows us to analyze our money habits.
Jupiter's movements have a significant effect on our spending. The planet of prosperity enters Aries from May 10 to October 28; re-enters Pisces from October 28 to December 20; then moves back into Aries from December 20 until May 16, 2023. When Jupiter is in Pisces, we'll feel generous and will give freely to those in need. When the planet is in Aries, our spending will be impulsive and fast.
Ready to celebrate new possibilities for 2022? It's promising to be a happy year. There's an air of optimism ahead, thanks to Jupiter's recent transit into Pisces. The Planet of Expansion moved into intuitive Pisces as of December 28, blessing us with loads of luck and romance for 2022.

Beginners Guide Towards Photography-Feel The Moments-Part Five
Blog Life Hacks Photography What's New February 16, 2017 No Comments Admin Beginners Tips, Photography, Tips, Tips Towards Beginners
Furthermore, Life is filled with moments. Birth of a child, graduation, wedding ceremonies, death, war and crisis, these are all some example of moments. With a photo one can capture a moment and save it forever. Later on this photographs becomes memories and memories turns out to be nostalgic. Photographs serves as an official document history. The present time is the history of the future. One can never know when one will be right in the middle of a world challenging event and a camera on the spot can be an evidence for the future and can create a record for generations to come. Take the case of 9/11. Fifteen years later, the sudden outburst of New York is still keenly felt when one remembers it through a photo or a video. Each of the photos reveal one of the darkest days of America. Executive at NYC's national September 11 memorial and museum, Clifford Chanin in an article of National Geographic titled as "Remembering 9/11 in pictures" states "Many of the images from 9/11 still convey the rawness and brutality of the attack. They still have the capacity to shock" (Handwerk and Howard). In fact, photographs are worth in taking people back to that moment and a photographer is being given the credit of capturing the intense moment. A finest example on this case would be a famous photograph titled "Falling Man," where photographer Richard Drew of AP captures the reversed jump of an unknown victim of 9/11 from the north tower. "Frozen Moment," captured by Thomas Nilsson of Getty images portrays just the exact collapsing moment of the south tower with dense smoked around it. These are some of the unique photos that still horrifies and jolt people. Because these photos show action and have the command to be an official document for future references. From the inception, photography was termed as the truth-telling medium, practiced as a fine art and commercial purposes. War was one of the very main subjects that lures the enthusiastic photographers for clicking strong subjected photographs. War photographs summons a large audience, works as a spectacle to understand the situation of the war zone and later on plays a habitual role in shaping national backgrounds and histories. For instance, photographs made a useful impact in preserving the World War I moments and memories. "Literally millions of photographs have survived form the First World War, ranging from those used for official propaganda purposes to those preserved in private albums, forming a considerable historical record" (Badsey). Professor Stephen Badsey reminds the fact that a photo cannot lie. It has enough logic in a sense that it would record what was in front of it. It automatically record social history: the way people celebrates, the way they dressed and how their streets and buildings looked like. For example, a photograph representing an Italian soldier having his hair cut in a trench on the Albanian Front in 1918 would simply give the audience the atmosphere and sense of visualizing the situation of World War I. Again, a photograph in 1915 during WW1 showing a large group of soldiers attending church service in a filed keeping the priest in the middle would merely give the spectators the idea of the way the soldiers attended their church session back on that time. Therefore all this photographs are the critical evidence of the moment that as otherwise been missed from the history of the war. "Taken together, the photographic records tells a very important part of the war's story" (Badsey). Consequently, a photographer doesn't gain follower and become famous only by clicking technical fitted pictures. A photographer gets famous by those pictures which will be a great reference to relate the past of a person, nation or even a place. Steve McCurry's one of the leading photographers of the 21st century is well known for his photos taken all over India. His popularity didn't come about merely because of the technical fitness of his photos but rather his photos relates the past of India. "The photographs of India taken in the last 40 years are popular in part because they evoke an earlier time in Indian history, as well as old ideas of what photographs should be like" (Cole). In a single photograph taken in 1983 by Steve McCurry, the Taj Mahal at the background and at the foreground was a steam engine train with two men riding in front of the engine; one of the men was crouched, white bearded and wearing a white cap and other one with brown official uniform with red turban. This photograph undoubtedly provides a sense of how the Taj Mahal and India looked at the 80's. This photograph now is a great proof to describe ancient India and represent it to the next generation.
