Oh and by the way a plea goes out to the wonderful Pink Floyd, they didn't mean to rip off one of your quotes in their first ebook they just got a bit over excited so please don't litigate!

So, Transference from OZ (that's Australia to us) are getting around & over the next year should be available to play around the globe, they are not called "The Navigators" for nothing! Seriously now these guys are a unique act, their live sound is electrifying & they are getting ready to journey to a place near YOU.

Alex & Friends Release Second Album: "Some Winter Tales"
After the angry 'One Thing Left" published in 2012, Alex & Friends are back with the quieter yet infectuous 'Some Winter Tales' and the timing - with Christmas coming to town - couldn't be more spot on.
The combo here is at its best. Pierre Alexander's disenchanted songs are brought into life by an intricate combination of 70's like ambiant rock and more pop-oriented tunes. The beautiful piano-driven ballad 'Glamorous Glow' is a perfect introduction to Alex & Friends' classy approach to pop music, while 'Losing Ground' and 'Speed Limit' remind the listener of how good this band is at wrapping up catchy nasty singles.
As for the majestic 'Christmas Day' with its epic ending, a hundred listens might not be enough to capture its dark and poisonous beauty.
A very special Christmas present for a decidedly very special band.

The Inspiration Behind The Versions Of "Santa Baby" Remakes... Hint, Never Marilyn Monroe!
Sultry Jazz Pop singer, actress, Nobel Nominated Cynthia Basinet whose iconic version of "Santa Baby", that has often been mistaken for Marilyn Monroe; although Marilyn never sang the song, has been the inspiration behind the versions of "Santa Baby" recorded to date since 2000, whether well-known or not.
Cynthia's one off of Eartha Kitt's renowned Holiday Tune is a true homage to the famous Cat Woman herself also a lyrical gift to a very special person in Cynthia's life: "I recorded Santa Baby as a gift for a very special person in my life, Jack Nicholson. Have always loved that song, as so many do, thanks to Eartha.' She recorded it and another, "Someone To Watch Over" Me, as gifts that went on a Christmas card CD. That was 1997. She then launched Santa Baby via the Internet and it went viral in 2000. This version, perhaps because it was sung from the heart, has oft credited to Marilyn Monroe. (Well, that and illegal file sharing. ;-).) Ironically, this version has become the standard for today's artists from pop to R&B to country, worldwide.
Watch the OFFICIAL Music Video:
http://vevo.ly/O9nQbl
A bit more on the leggy, statuesque, strawberry blonde who has been seen in over 200 commercials and films, on magazine covers and whose image has been retributed: The quirky natural beauty with sparkling versatility as an entertainer, Cynthia Basinet was born in Van Nuys (Los Angeles), California. A single mom she is a resilient star, a rare inspirational gem of entertainment, combining her experience as an actress, a sought after American fashion model in Europe during the rise of the supermodel, as well as being recognized as a remarkable humanitarian¸ She was nominated in 2005 for a shared Nobel and has addressed the UN on numerous occasion of issues facing the Saharwian peoples living in self-determination. Her quote "Displaced societies are of value. Their issues are our issues." has become an anthem worldwide for the UN and refugees.
With crowning distinctions as a classically trained vocalist and musician (she learnt opera, the saxophone and flute as a child), Cynthia is one of the best jazz singers in the world today and is capable of conjuring up Hollywood's golden era of glamour from American history with her critically acclaimed performances and sultry jazz recordings. The artist has 10 releases from pop to electronic but it's her exquisite, speak-easy singing style smouldering with elegant mastery has ensconced Basinet as a cultural living treasure of the American jazz canon comparing her to the likes of Ella, Frank, Billie and others.
Her songs have been heard in soundtracks as varied indie cult film, "Party Monster" and the very popular CBS show "NCIS Los Angeles".

MusicDish*China Top 10 Songs Gives Insight Into Chinese Online Fans
In 2014, MusicDish*China (独立小炒) featured over 150 songs from Western indie musicians to Chinese music platform Ximalaya since July as part of its Song Blast promotional service. Covering genres from pop, R&B, jazz, electronic and rock, many songs have generated thousands of plays on the Chinese platform, with the most listened surpassing 30,000. So what appeals to Chinese online listeners?
Pop and EDM Find Favor With Chinese Online Fans
We listed our top ten most played songs on Ximalaya below. Without a doubt, one thing they share in common is that all ten of them are enjoyable to the ears --- Chinese ears to be precise. One of the trends we have discovered is that Chinese indie listeners on Ximalaya buy more into pop and electronic music, with pop being most popular. Another pattern that drew our attention is that all of our top fours have frighteningly beautiful, melodic, yet powerful female vocals. We hope our top ten songs can give a glimpse into the style of Western acts appealing to online Chinese fans this year. So here we go:
1. "Close Your Eyes" by Roxanna
Genre: pop, jazz
Canadian music sensation Roxanna was born in wartime Iran. Her music always has an amazing power to heal broken hearts and inspire lost souls. Resounding melody, emotional lyrics, powerful voice, and a strong accompaniment of string orchestration all together make it the most touching song. This is why Close Your Eyes managed to touch our hearts and became our top one in the list of most played songs in 2014.
2. "Run" by Marina V
Marina V has this "hauntingly beautiful voice" (LA Times) that could intoxicate us. Run is a melodic and emotional pop song that would catch your ears very easily, and probably would linger in your head for days to come. As the songwriter and producer for her own music, Marina V always integrates her childhood experiences in Russia and teenage life in America into her songs. This song won her LA Music Critic Award in 2013.
3. "Falling 4 U" by Devyn Rose
Genre: R&B, electronic
Talented musician Devyn Rose has been producing R&B, hip-pop and remixing tapes with her unique style that combines different music genres together. This Falling 4 U is sexy, edgy, yet hits you with an attitude. Beautiful and clean melody with a strong beat-driven rhythm all together make this song a number three on our most played songs list in 2014.
4. "Tomorrow" by We Are Catalyst
Genre: rock, electronic
Heavy metal, alternative rock and electronic, "Tomorrow" is like a standard millennial type of thing. Leading vocal has a pure and simple female voice, which adds a sense of innocence to this dark, hopeless world that was created in the song.
5. "Stuck in My Head" by Sam Ebako
Genre: EDM
After four stunning, female voices taking over the top four spots in our chart, finally we are here with some strong, male vocal expression. Sam Ebako is a Cameroon-born singer and songwriter. Stuck in My Head actually came out after his horrible breakup with his ex-girlfriend. The sad and grieved lyrics make a sharp contrast with the strong beats and hasty rhythm; and the electronic effects added to the vocal make this song very trendy and clubby.
6. "Boom" by Lina Fouro(L4O)
Genre: pop, electronic
L4o has always been popular among teenage girls. Her music is popping, chic and very straightforward. Catchy melodies with candid lyrics, Boom allows us to hear this simple, and maybe a little bit shy teenage girl expressing her love for her high school crush. The electronic effects and sexy vocal voice save this song from being plain, boring and too sweet.
7. "Somewhere" by Hashback Harnish
Genre: electronic, experimental
Smoky, mysterious, and edgy. Hashback Harnish makes us enter this post-midnight world that only exists in our deep imaginations…
8. "Toxic Kisses" by SweetTooth
Genre: rock/heavy metal
Heavy metal and electronic usually do not go along, yet Sweet Tooth surprises us by making these two comfortably compatible with each other. Toxic Kisses creates this dashingly frantic sense that would give you goose bumps from the first note.
9. "Sing Along, Sing Along" by Cookie Robinowitz
Cookie Robinowitz has successfully made this song pop-y and captivating that this song is simply enjoyable. The melody is so catchy that you would probably be singing along together right after verse one, just as the title has suggested.
10. "With You" by FM Pilots
Genre: pop-alternative
FM Pilots is a pop-alternative band from Oklahoma. This song With You is frank, simple and clean-cut. The lead vocal has a very attractive voice, and the melody is well written and catchy. All of these make this song enjoyable and fun to listen.

There are a variety of home security companies in Tucson, AZ, each with their own pricing structure; this allows you to find one that meets your needs and budget. Pricing depends on the type of installation (professional or DIY), ownership of equipment, and monitoring. If you install the system yourself, there are no installation fees, while a complete professional installation usually runs around $200. When you sign up for monitoring, some companies give you a basic system free of charge, eliminating equipment costs. Other companies vary in price depending on your needs, but a basic system commonly runs for about $230, and then you own it. You could spend anywhere from $29.99 up to $200 a month for monitoring fees.
Why Consider Wireless Security Systems in Tucson?
One of the biggest changes in security systems in recent years was wireless security systems. If you choose a wireless home security system in Tucson, AZ, installation couldn't be easier. You'll never drill another hole through your walls or run unnecessary wires throughout your house. Control panels communicate wirelessly with the security equipment, meaning the entire system is easy to configure and can come with you if you ever move. 100% wireless systems, or those with wireless features, communicate via cellular signals; this means if you have cell signal, your home is covered and monitored. Because there are no wires to cut, this gives you another layer of security as a burglar can't render your system inoperable in that way.
There is a wide variety of options for home security cameras in Tucson, AZ, including indoor, outdoor, motion-activated, and night vision cameras. With so many home security options available today, finding the perfect setup for your home is easy. For example, you can link your home security cameras with remote access and enjoy the freedom and convenience of viewing live security camera footage (or recorded clips) right from your smartphone, tablet, computer, or other web-enabled device. Remotely monitor the wellbeing of the family pet, or the delivery of an important package. Plus you can receive important email or text notifications for certain events or actions. It's also nice to know that when you are home you can use security cameras to see who's at the front door before opening it.
Home automation is no longer the stuff of science fiction movies. Today, it's simple to control your lights, appliances, home theater, and other electronics in your home. Smart technology puts the ability to remotely monitor and control your home in the palm of your hand. Stop fretting about if all the doors were locked or the appliances turned off before you left in a hurry. Simply use your smartphone, tablet, or other web-connected device to control each appliance, or gadget. You can even remotely lock your front door if a hectic morning leaves you racing out without turning the lock. Automated security systems let you set up text and email notifications for various events, including children coming and going or emergencies like a security breach. Whether you're across town or relaxing on a beach somewhere, home automation leaves you in complete control of your home.

Q: How can communication of moderator actions be improved? Currently there is very little feedback to users for the actions of moderators.
If you flag content, there is no notification that the flag has been considered, no way to determine the outcome of the review and not even a clear indication that you have already used a flag in some situations.
As someone whose content is flagged, there is no indication that it has happened, and no indication of the outcome. If your post is deleted there is no indication of why it was deleted or appeal option.
There does seem to be a page that exists somewhere with more details, but there are no obvious links to it. Certainly no inbox/email notifications.
This extremely poor communication leads to misunderstandings. For example, a moderator deletes a comment. The author is not notified in any way, they simply return to the site some time later and find what they wrote is not there. Did they forget to hit post? Was it just a network error? Was it a moderator, and if so for what reason and how do they appeal? Further posts risk enraging moderators who perceive it as trying to subvert their efforts.
How can communication be improved?
Note: not a dupe of Moderator actions in activity tab, that only related to moderator actions that are publicly reported.

A: TLDR: The tooling exists, but the need rarely does for feedback on flags. If something is flagged, its rarely critical enough to require mod contact.

As a moderator, I've always considered flags to be a one way street - the point of a flag is to get attention for a post of any sort, so that someone trusted can take a look and handle it appropriately.
There are mechanisms in place for a certain degree of broad feedback on flagging as a whole (badges/helpful flag counts for positive reinforcement and flag bans as negative reinforcement), but I don't think flags were ever intended to be a means of feedback to the flagger.
The original intent of flagging was to replace having to email SE for content problems. It scales reasonably well on most sites and we're able to handle most sites because we're handling the problems rather than trying to explain why we're doing something. In the few situations where I've had to give feedback, it took a fair bit longer than just processing the flags, but you're always free to take it to meta.
So, specifically

Currently there is very little feedback to users for the actions of moderators.

This is somewhat by design. Feedback won't scale that well I suspect. I've handled maybe 400 or 500 flags so far this month, and feedback for all of them would be noisy. If there's a direct benefit most of the time, sure. If feedback is required we can use mod messages (for private things), superpings - for somewhat public feedback via chat or the flag feedback option (which exists).
We rarely need to supply feedback on flags though, and its rarely something impacting long term usage.

If you flag content, there is no notification that the flag has been considered, no way to determine the outcome of the review and not even a clear indication that you have already used a flag in some situations.

Practically speaking, flags are designed to bring attention to a post. In many situations a moderator does not see the flags and they're handled by the community anyway. On the whole, its unlikely that you would need to review our handling of a specific flag, nor is it likely to affect the use of the site unless there is a pattern of bad flags.

As someone whose content is flagged, there is no indication that it has happened, and no indication of the outcome. If your post is deleted there is no indication of why it was deleted or appeal option.

Well, yeah. You can always see your own deleted questions and answers. In many cases we do delete comments, but its worth remembering, comments are transient by design. In a few cases we do end up sending mod messages or have a quiet word, but on the whole the need for this is uncommon.
I suppose we could let people see their own deleted comments, but I don't know how useful that would be. I can think of less than 3-4 times when someone asked me about deleted comments

This extremely poor communication leads to misunderstandings. For example, a moderator deletes a comment. The author is not notified in any way, they simply return to the site some time later and find what they wrote is not there

Oddly enough, this rarely happens in my experience. Usually I don't instanuke comments and very often comments of value tend to be converted into a chat room. Usually if someone keeps reposting a comment, there's ... other reasons to be unhappy. In these cases we'll try to feed back.

Further posts risk enraging moderators who perceive it as trying to subvert their efforts.

As a mod? At most I roll my eyes, take a deep breath, and leave a comment, mod message, or superping. But I can't even remember the last time I needed to.

Uncertain Grounds
Rethinking Settlement in the Anthropocene
By 2030, the arctic city of Kiruna, Sweden will have relocated some 8,000 of its 18,000 inhabitants, forcing people out of their neighborhoods to make room for the continuous excavations of a valuable iron ore vein that runs directly beneath their homes. Less than 100 years from now, the entire town will have disappeared, as the ground will have cracked and subsided several meters below its current level. Displaced by the same mining industry that led to its foundation, Kiruna is but one case in a world obsessed with consumption and resource exploitation. Architecture has become too quick to abandon landscapes and buildings, while the alarming and visible consequences of climate change are on the rise. As grounds and atmospheres have turned undependable, structures that disrupt other species—living (like biological organisms) or nonliving (like geological formations)—are built in favor of only one constituency: humankind. These architectures tend to privilege normative notions of cities and buildings, simultaneously disavowing relationships to contexts, and traces of the past.
Uncertain Grounds offers an alternative urban future for Kiruna in which unstable space is not renounced but embraced, introducing a series of processes that exalt those of the mine, cutting, filling, drifting, and stoping in order to produce an architecture that accepts the shifting ground, and which benefits humans, animals, plants, and geological strata alike. This project aims to reactivate architecture by shifting its gears from solidity, durability, and stasis, to instability, impermanence, and fluctuation. Only by virtue of revised notions of structural propriety can all these constituencies find common grounds. Presented as an essay film that makes evident the accelerated temporal scale of the project and the world today—as a product of the Anthropocene—Uncertain Grounds appropriates found and original footage in order to offer a way in which the preservation of context and memory, remediation of trauma, and models of circular economy can yield an all-inclusive and hopeful future. Inevitably for entropy, Uncertain Grounds asks: once humans cease to position themselves as the owners of the planet, should architects not design with obsolescence and change in mind? With a future built on unstable grounds, literally and metaphorically, we can expect many Kirunas in the years to come, forced to move by the dominance of economics and by impending climate change.

  However, it's also optional in CalendarList (https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/v3/reference/calendarList).

Three Canadian universities have been ranked among the top 50 in the world by Times Higher Education.
In the list released on Tuesday, the University of Toronto, the University of British Columbia and McGill University were listed at 23, 37 and 39 respectively.
All three were slotted into similar positions within the top 50 last year.
However, the University of Toronto saw the biggest drop, falling from 16 to 23.
McGill slipped four spots from 35, while UBC remained unchanged at 37.
Times Higher Education releases annual rankings of the top 100 most prestigious universities in the world. Its results are based on a survey of more 10,000 academics from across the globe. Participants are asked to list up to 15 universities that they believe rate the highest for research and teaching in their respective fields.
Votes based on research prowess were weighted double.
The University of Toronto, UBC and McGill have been fixtures among the top 50 for the past several years.
The top five of this year's rankings included: Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford University, the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford.
U.S. Ivy Leaguers Princeton University, Yale University and Columbia University placed just outside of the top five. Harvard also ranked first last year.
Times Higher Education said in a press release that universities in Asia have seen a significant growth in terms of their presence in the rankings.
The news organization said there are 18 institutions from the continent on the list, up from 10 last year.
Paul Blackmore, a professor of high education at King's College London, said in the release that Asia's improvement can be attributed to "undoubted growth" in the region's university systems as well as an increase in global recognition.
"We've had a highly Anglo-Saxon view of higher education for many years, and that can't be sustained for much longer," he said.
Joshua Mok Ka-Ho, professor of comparative policy at Hong Kong's Lingnan University, said there have also been investments by many of the continent's governments in higher education. He added that many institutions are focusing their funding on strengthening their research and publishing in international journals.
"Such self-enhancing and advancing trends will continue, particularly when an increasing number of governments in Asia have recognized the importance of research, knowledge transfer, innovation and technology in transforming the economy and society," he said in the press release.


UPDATE: An earlier version of this article stated that the election for TCU President is on Tuesday, but it has been moved to Wednesday.
Benya Kraus, the diversity & community affairs officer for Tufts Community Union (TCU) Senate, is the only candidate for Wednesday's election for TCU President. As a result, this year's election will be uncontested, and Kraus, a junior, is the presumptive president-elect for the next academic year.
She explained that she wants to focus on home both as a physical space and as a supportive community. She pointed out that some places on campus are underutilized and that financial resources are consolidated in certain locations.
She said that she feels the campus has become divided on controversial issues and that she wants to bring people together.
In particular, Kraus would like to create more shared social spaces on campus, including a campus pub in the Mayer Campus Center. Her campaign website also calls for the creation of a more diverse system of theme houses and improving student groups' access to on-campus spaces.
Additionally, Kraus would like to expand language class offerings, increase resources for the Department of Computer Science and potentially reduce distribution requirements, according to her website.
As for campus diversity, she proposed hiring more faculty of color, diversifying the Office of Admissions' outreach and making pre-orientation programs mandatory. She also suggested creating a process of community-based budgeting for part of the university's tuition budget, through which the university would allow for student input on financial decisions.
Kraus commented on the fact that she is the only candidate running for president.
She added that she feels confident that she would be a strong candidate even if there were others running, given that she created TCU Senate's Two-Minute Thursday videos and has budgeted many student groups on campus.
Current TCU President Gauri Seth said that while she would have liked to see more candidates run for the position, she does not see it as an inherent concern. She added that she appreciates Kraus' campaign's attempts to get students engaged with campus politics.
Seth said she understands why people would not run for the position, particularly considering the current climate on campus.
TCU Vice President Shai Slotky, who openly endorsed Kraus, pointed out that this is not the first time the election has been uncontested. In 2015, Brian Tesser was elected as TCU President in an uncontested race.
Turnout for the 2015 election was only 11.65 percent of the student body, whereas the 2016 election between Seth and Ryan Johnson saw more than double the turnout, according to 2015 and 2016 Daily articles.
Nonetheless, Slotky said that Kraus is a well-qualified candidate.

Q: TCP Client/Server with Linux This may be a very basic question/design but I am struggling with the correct method to handle the system I am going to define here.
I have a system with a single client (PC) that will connect to an embedded Linux board (Raspberry Pi) via TCP/IP protocol.  This will be a command/response system where the PC will ask for something and the raspberry PI will respond with the results.
For Example:
   CMD => Read/Return ADC Channel X
RSP => ADC Channel X Data
For this type of system I have already defined a packet protocol that will allow for this interaction.  My problem is how to handle this on the Raspberry PI.  I envision having a single thread handling the TCP connection; placing incomming data into a thread safe queue and pulling outgoing data from a thread safe queue.  Then the main thread would poll the queue periodically looking for data.  When data is found the command would be processed and a response will be generated.  All commands have a response.
The main thread will also be doing other time critical tasks (PID control loop) so it cannot wait for incoming or outgoing data.
My guess is this type of system is fairly common and there is probably a good approach to implementing this type of system.  I am very new to Linux programming but I have been programming highly embedded systems (No OS) forever.  Just struggling with the correct approach for this type of design.
Note I chose TCP/IP because it handles retying in case of failure.  In my case every command has a response so UDP could be used if it makes the design easier/more flexible.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

A: I tend to avoid threads if I can and only use them if I have to because they make debugging the program harder. They turn a determinsitic problem into a non-deterministic one. So my initial approach would be to see if I can do this without a thread and still achieve concurrency. This is possible using select which will notify your main program when there is something on the socket that needs to be read. Then, when there is something on the socket, it can read the data, process it, and wait for the next event. Problems with this approach is if the computation on the received data takes longer than the acceptable time wanted to process the next element of data, you could end up with a backlog of unprocessed data on the socket. If this is going to happen then you can go ahead and run the receive loop in thread, and the work function in another thread, or fork a new process and deal with a copy of the data from the new process.

A: the ultra classic linux approach is to have a listener program that forks a new copy of itself for each new client. Linux even has a built in demon that does that for you (initd - although that might have changed with all the systemd stuff). Thats how sshd, telnetd, ftpd all work. No threads


Dragons Tail, (1350 Newmarket), 15/2: Plenty of these have bags of promise, notably Music Soceity and Consequences, but this early in the season it can be worth siding with experience. Dragons Tail has been there and done it at good level through his 2yo career. He looks fairly weighted and his stable could hardly be in better form.
Le Brivido, (1500 Newmarket), 11/4: Lightly raced French challenger who followed a runner up effort in the French 2000 guineas with a last gasp win in the Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot. Not seen since and this is a clear drop back in trip, but trainer Andre Fabre has plenty of races in the French race programme to aim at, so it seems significant he makes the trip over for this event.
Oscar Rose, (1515 Cheltenham), 11/1: Ok so we've been down the road with this mare a few times. Last time she made a strong move from the rear in a very valuable Newbury handicap before fading late in the mud. She still looks well handicapped and the better ground here should help her on breeding, worth one more go.
Definitelyanoscar (1735 Cheltenham), 4:1: A very strong mares bumper and the Harry Fry trained Definitelyanoscar must have a chance of defying a penalty. She won her debut in taking style and the better ground should well suit. Expensive purchase Lust For Glory could be the biggest danger.

L:a Bruket's Natural Skincare Line Is Filled With Broccoli — And It's Dermatologist Approved
By Jessica DeFino
You make a point of choosing organic berries over conventionally grown produce; on a good day, you choose kale chips over the processed potato variety; you prefer to eat at farm-to-table restaurants — but maybe you haven't quite gotten into the all-natural skincare thing yet. Still, the concept of plant-based products that are free of irritants of preservatives is compelling. But the overwhelming variety of natural ingredients to choose from — coupled with the constant debate over their collective efficacy — is enough to make you cling to your trusty drugstore moisturizer.
L:a Bruket, a natural, non-toxic skincare brand born in Sweden, wants to change all that. Available in Europe and Asia for nearly a decade, L:a Bruket (which means "the small workshop" in Swedish) made its way stateside in summer 2018, bringing products like Broccoli Seed Serum, Fennel Seed Facial Wash, and Rich Carrot Facial Cream to our side of the world.
"The journey into natural cosmetics was fueled by an increasing fascination with the effects natural and organic ingredients actually have on your skin," founder Monica Kylèn tells The Zoe Report. A former ceramics artist, Kylèn stumbled into product development while looking for a "really great cream" that would help heal the dry skin on her hands.
"I was looking at the characteristics of some of the most nutritious plants and vegetables we have in food," she says of developing the range. "I thought that if it is good enough to eat, we should find a way to use and benefit from these super-ingredients in skincare."
And here's when the skeptics among us start asking questions.
The Key Ingredients
All L:a Bruket products are formulated with what Kylèn calls "super ingredients that you could also eat."
Some highlights include algae, which Kylèn says the brand cherishes for its hydrating and detoxifying properties; broccoli seed extract (which can fight free radicals, according to Kylèn), vitamin A-rich carrot seed extract; and more commonplace natural ingredients like jojoba oil and meadowfoam seed oil.
While there's no argument that the aforementioned natural ingredients are nutrient-dense, there is some debate about how effective they are when compared with chemically engineered ingredients, at least in terms of harder-to-tackle skin concerns like hyperpigmentation and aging.
How Effective Are The Ingredients?
"Algae is most famously known for its humectant, or moisturizing, capacity," Dr. Aanand Geria of Geria Dermatology in New Jersey tells The Zoe Report. He notes that it's also packed with vitamins A, B, C, and E, which combine to fight free radicals and fade dark spots. "I would say algae is better for the protecting the skin barrier than most synthetic ingredients, except for perhaps petroleum jelly — but it won't clog your pores, either." This dermatologist-approved ingredient can be found in L:a Bruket's Hydrating Face Mask alongside aloe vera and cucumber extract.
Dr. Geria endorses the efficacy of many of the other key ingredients in L:a Bruket's line up, as well. "Jojoba oil also has vitamin E and vitamin B, [both of which] help to repair and soothe inflamed skin," he says. "And fennel seeds have antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties."
But the star ingredient is L:a Bruket's Broccoli Seed Serum's broccoli seed extract, which Dr. Geria calls a natural alternative to vitamin A-derived retinol. "BSE is high in vitamins and fatty acids, specifically, vitamin A and Omega-9, 6 and 3 fatty acids, which help absorb and retain moisture in the skin quickly without leaving behind a greasy residue," he explains. "There seems to be some truth to BSE promoting cell renewal and preventing signs of aging — it seems to do much of the same as retinol but without the irritation."
The final word? "These ingredients have the benefit of being more gentle than their synthetic counterparts, but there's no reason to believe they are any less effective."
Of course, this comes as no surprise to Kylèn. "In general, I always say that the secret of truly healthy skin is drinking lots of water, sleep enough, eat well, and spend time in nature," she tells us. "Then, we can help you to let your health shine through with our products."
Ahead, shop the all-natural, non-toxic, totally effective must-haves from L:a Bruket.

For its PC games, Sony currently uses the PlayStation PC brand
Sony is also bringing God of War to his PC on January 14th, and a remastered version of his Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection in 2022. Sony's PlayStation Studios head Hermen Hulst announced in June that Sony was still in the early stages of its PC plans. In his PlayStation Blog post, Hulst said, "Even at launch, we'd like to emphasize that PlayStation will continue to be a great place to play PlayStation Studios titles." We will continue to look for the right time to release each game."
Sony's PlayStation games on Steam are now published by PlayStation PC LLC instead of PlayStation Mobile. Resetera's forum posters spotted the change yesterday, and it looks like the PlayStation PC company was formed earlier this year. This could mean that Sony will use the PlayStation PC brand more in the future.
Sony has gradually expanded its presence on PC over the past year after Horizon Zero Dawn hit Steam in August 2020, followed by Days Gone in February.
Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan previously said Sony's foray into PC gaming was an easy decision for the company. In an interview with GQ earlier this year, Ryan said, "We have an opportunity to bring these great games to a wider audience and recognize the economics of game development. It's not always easy. IP capabilities." improves, the cost of game development increases with each cycle. It is also now easily available for non-console owners. So what we have to do is a very simple decision. "

Opinion: Coal industry worth supporting during crisis
Conor Bernstein
As the COVID-19 crisis wreaks havoc on nearly every part of the nation's energy sector, now is not the time for partisan fights over which industries and energy sources deserve government support. Yet that's exactly what has happened.
The coal industry has asked and will continue to advocate for relief to weather the coronavirus pandemic. But the usual critics have launched determined opposition. It doesn't require reading between the lines to understand the thrust of their message: "While it's important to preserve American industry and American jobs in this dire moment, coal jobs and coal country can take a back seat."
That stance is as absurd as it sounds. Coal continues to provide roughly a quarter of the nation's electricity generation. And in many states, coal is the leading fuel for electricity generation. In regional electricity grids across the country, coal plants often play an irreplaceable role in ensuring affordable, reliable power where communities need it most. This is an essential industry and it deserves smart, targeted support.
Unlike other industries, the coal industry isn't asking for a cash bailout. It's simply asking for flexibility and a near-term reduced regulatory and tax burden to ensure its viability in this extraordinary time.
The stress facing the mining industry is very real. Energy demand is already being affected by city and state-wide lockdowns. The conditions expected in electricity markets in the coming weeks and months will profoundly impact an industry still trying to recover and find its footing after years of regulatory overreach that shuttered plants and closed mines.
Policymakers shouldn't let current conditions in electricity markets produce sweeping consequences for the long-term health of an essential industry. It's important that we think about the electricity-generating portfolio we'll need in the years ahead. America's power grid still requires on-demand, fuel-secure coal power. And it needs America's miners to produce it.
Government has the opportunity to prevent an unnecessary hollowing out of a critical industry and workforce. The best thing Washington can do is make sure that essential industries are given the means to continue operating and keep people working.
If we handle this challenge correctly — facing down a health crisis and effectively managing economic upheaval — we can rebuild and strengthen American industry. If we fail to act, or if we choose to leave some industries and communities behind, we could produce a second economic crisis of our own making.
The measures proposed by the coal industry to weather this storm will help safeguard the jobs of 116,000 Americans directly employed at our nation's coal mines and 289,000 others indirectly employed through mining operations. These actions will also preserve the secure, affordable and balanced electricity mix we'll need in the years ahead.
Conor Bernstein is senior director of communications at the National Mining Association.

Q: javascript passing values to the function not working I had asked this question yesterday but my code was not clear so couldnt get an answer, i have tried to create a replica of actual problem here.
what i am trying to do is thre is a html table, i am iterating for all rows then to a particular column of every rows i am attaching an event handler which on being clicked should output some computed object, but it always return  {"isTrusted":true}
 var ff = function(el){
    return function(el){ alert(el) }; // the output is always {"isTrusted":true}
 }

function Fi(selector, func) {
         document.querySelectorAll(selector).forEach(function(node{
          node.onclick = func;
          })
       ;}

//-------------- main calling code--------------------------------

 document.querySelectorAll('#myTable > tbody > tr').forEach(function (node) {

    cells = node.querySelectorAll('td');
    var info = {};
    info.age = cells[1].innerText;
    Fi('td:nth-child(1) > a', ff(info));

})

EDIT:
i tried doing this:
var ff = function (el) {
   return function() { alert(el) };
}

BUt the problem is
for every row of table there should be an new info object created which is infact happening ,
document.querySelectorAll('#myTable > tbody > tr').forEach(function (node) {

    cells = node.querySelectorAll('td');

  //--------->loop over all rows and create info object

    var info = {};
    info.age = cells[1].innerText;

   //---------> when the cell is clicked always the last info object is shown but for every row it should be different

    Fi('td:nth-child(1) > a', ff(info));

})

A:
 var ff = function(el){
    return function(el){ alert(el) }; // the output is always {"isTrusted":true}
 }

ff takes a parameter el. It then returns a function which also takes a parameter el. That latter el shadows the former el. So el will be the argument which is passed to the event handler directly, not the one passed to ff (and that'll be an Event object).
Get rid of the inner el parameter:
var ff = function (el) {
   return function () { alert(el) };
}

Q: Image resize function in codeigniter failed to resize the image I have the following code:
if($this->upload->do_upload())
                {

                    $data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
                    $configer =  array(
                      'image_library'   => 'gd2',
                      'source_image'    =>  $data['upload_data']['full_path'],
                      'maintain_ratio'  =>  TRUE,
                      'width'           =>  1024,
                      'height'          =>  350,
                    );
                    $this->image_lib->clear();
                    $this->image_lib->initialize($configer);
                    $this->image_lib->resize();

                    $upl_filename = $data['upload_data']['file_name'];
                    $imageUpdateData = array($entity.'_image' => $upl_filename);
                    $this->db->where($entity.'_id',$id);
                    $queryImage = $this->db->update($entity,$imageUpdateData);

                    $image1_success = 1;
                    $image1_msg = "$entity updated successfully";

                }

My image is getting uploaded successfully. Even the $this->image_lib->resize(); is working fine (since I tried to print a message when the function works).
But, the image is not getting resized. What am I doing wrong?

Autotk.com offers accurate information on Jaguar XF 0-60 times and quarter mile from trusted sources. You may also keep track of how 0-60 times of Jaguar XF changed across years and check out the model's competitors with the same acceleration performance.
Our mission is to present an easy-to-read and comprehensive information on Jaguar XF 0-60 mph and quarter mile for the devoted geeks, as it is an essential indicator of the vehicle power.
It might be difficult to reproduce official Jaguar XF 0-60 times driving your own car, as measuring accuracy of Jaguar XF acceleration from 0 to 60 depends on the transmission type or such variables as wind, weather conditions, tire traction or even weight of the rim. For the safety of the public, 0-60 times are often recorded by professional drivers on the closed racing tracks or dragstrips.
The good news is you can always soup up your car to have the best drag times. The easiest way is chip-tuning. The Engine of Jaguar XF is equipped with an engine management system (EMS)/Engine Control Unit (ECU) which can be modified to different settings, producing different performance levels and boosting XF\'s horsepower.
Right now we are well on course to post the data on transmission and engine on the Jaguar XF acceleration page of our website. We also have plans to make it possible for any visitor of the website to add their own custom data on Jaguar XF acceleration.


Does the thought of searching for the perfect foundation fill you with exhaustion before you've got anywhere near painting the back of your hand with skin-coloured stripes?
The seasons, age, diet: our skin changes constantly and our beauty needs change with it, yet it's all too easy to slip into a make-up rut because shopping for the essentials can feel overwhelming.
A recent survey for campaign Beautython, from Covent Garden's Beauty Quarter, revealed that two thirds of women feel too "intimidated" to ask for advice at beauty counters, while 65% said they were "stuck" in their ways, cosmetically speaking.
Thus, we decided to ask the experts to tell us how to make the most of beauty counters, and specifically, how to shop for a new foundation.
So whether you lurch from one new release to the next, took years to find your perfect product only to have it discontinued or find your skin just needs something new, here's a guide to finding your new make-up basics – without fear of being talked into a face that feels nothing like your own.
Rinse the expertise, because you're probably not going to find the ideal shade in a 10-minute trolley dash.
Bobbi Brown pro artist, Amy Conway, says it's "essential" to try foundation as you'd usually wear it: "You want to see how it looks on the different areas of the skin.
When choosing a foundation, nothing beats good old daylight, so always head outside with a mirror.
Does your make-up bag need a refresh?
You don't have to know the buzzwords, but it helps enormously if you can tell them what ends up shiny after a day at work, whether you're prone to spots and where your dry patches are.
Worried you're being coached to fall in love with something that will have a major impact on next month's rent? Or that you'll buy every recommended product out of politeness? Priada says there's no reason not to be straightforward: ask prices and be honest about the results. "Our artists love Nars so much they'll keep showing products to a customer given half a chance, but it's best to be direct about what you are looking for. All Nars artists are trained to investigate a customer's needs to find out what is perfect for them.
"And you should never be scared of asking the price. If you are working to a specific budget do say so that they can factor this into what they suggest.
Don't be embarrassed to ask for samples. While you should be able to get a good idea of the product thanks to the tips above, if you're still not sure, Priada says take some home to try it out.
"Our artists are highly trained, so you should be able to decide based on a full application at the counter, but you can ask for a sample to last you two more applications if you can't make a decision.

At Diversified Roofing Co., we are dedicated to providing excellent customer service to all of the Lancaster homeowners we work with. With that in mind, here are a few of the questions our customers ask us most frequently.
How Long Does a Roof Last? How Do I Know if I Need a New Roof?
Depending on the type of roofing material, a roof systems can last anywhere from 18 to 100 years.
Most homes in the US use asphalt shingles, and those have the lowest estimated lifespan of all roofing materials. If your asphalt roofing is more than 15 years old, it could be very close to time to replace it. And because roofing damage can easily lead to damage in other parts of your Lancaster home, replacing the roof early is much better than being too late.
The best thing you can do if you're unsure about the quality of your roofing is to have an inspection performed. During an inspection, our professionals roofing contractors will find any potential problems your roofing may have, and we can let you know what the probable lifespan of your roofing is.
A larger roof will require more labor and more materials, which will both increase the price.
Different roofing materials vary widely in price. Some roofing materials that cost more upfront, however, can have significantly less expensive repair and maintenance cost than cheaper materials.
The "pitch" of your roof—or the angle at which it slopes—will determine in part which materials you can use. A roof with a lower pitch (less of a slope) will need more assistance with shedding water, and materials may cost more money.
Disposing of your older roofing materials properly and protecting your property during the process can have a significant effect on the price of a roofing replacement.
Can New Roofs Be Installed in the Winter?
With properly trained crews, installing a roof during the winter months will not be a problem. Extreme temperatures and inclement weather, however, will cause delays in production regardless of the time of year.
At Diversified Roofing Co., we pride ourselves in the consistency and quality of the work that we provide to homeowners in Lancaster and Chester County. All of our contractors are professionally trained, and they continuously train throughout the year. We are one of the few companies classified as a "Select Shingle Roofer," which puts us in the top 1% of all roofers in North America.
Diversified Roofing Co. is covered with $2,000,000 of liability insurance. We also have complete coverage for Workers Compensation insurance.
Should I Invest in a New Roof if I am Selling my Home?
If you know that your Lancaster home's roofing needs to be replaced, the potential buyers and their home inspectors will also come to that conclusion, and your home's resale value will suffer. If you're planning on selling your home, we recommend that you have your roofing inspected to take care of any problems before potential buyers find them on their own.
What if I Have a Leak Now?
This is actually a very common occurrence. Call our professional roofing contractors as soon as possible to have your Lancaster home's roofing repaired. Roofing problems can quickly get out of hand, and they can cause damage to several more parts of your home very easily.
If you're looking for a roofing contractor in Lancaster of Chester County, call Diversified Roofing Co. at 717-442-8422, or fill out our online request form.
