What to Consider About Memory Care in Toms River
Toms River is a town of 93,000 residents in Ocean County, New Jersey. Nearly 20 percent of the population is aged 65 and older, with some requiring specialized care for dementia-related disorders such as Alzheimer's Disease and Huntington's Disease. In fact, throughout New Jersey, there are an estimated 170,000 seniors living with dementia.
To care for these people, there are 11 memory care facilities in the Toms River area. Throughout New Jersey, facilities that provide memory care for seniors are officially referred to as assisted living facilities and are subject to the same regulations as those that provide basic assisted living services. The New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services is responsible for regulating all assisted living facilities in the state.
The Toms River area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those that specialize in brain health and dementia care, such as Community Medical Center in the event of a medical emergency or illness.

Toms River is safer than 46 percent of U.S. cities, and the town has less than one crime per 1,000 residents each year. Even with low crime rates, it's a good idea to inquire about security when touring memory care facilities to ensure that there are procedures and systems in place to keep residents safe.
The cost of living in Toms River is more than 15 percent above the U.S. average, which is likely to affect the cost of memory care, particularly when it comes to room and board charges.

Hines Receives Top Award from EPA
Energy Efficiency a High Priority for Hines and Its Tenants
(HOUSTON) – Hines, the international real estate firm, announced today that it has been recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with the 2010 ENERGY STAR® Sustained Excellence Award in recognition of continued leadership in protecting the environment through energy efficiency.
Hines will be recognized at an awards ceremony in Washington, D.C., on March 18.
This is the sixth time Hines has been recognized by the EPA as a Partner of the Year and the third time Hines has received the Sustained Excellence Award.
Hines' portfolio of ENERGY STAR buildings consists of 147 facilities and more than 75 million square feet. With a weighted-average performance rating of 88 (38 points higher than the national average), the portfolio is 41.5 percent more energy efficient than the national average. This translates into a savings of $1.35 per-square-foot per year, as well as estimated annual greenhouse gas reductions equivalent to removing 100,000 automobiles from the road.
Hines is also a leading developer in the EPA's Designed to Earn the ENERGY STAR program, which recognizes buildings designed to achieve superior results in energy efficiency.
Twelve Hines projects have earned this designation.
"Hines has continued to demonstrate exemplary leadership among ENERGY STAR partners for more than a decade," said Alyssa Quarforth, U.S. EPA ENERGY STAR Program Manager for Commercial Properties.
"The ability to continually reduce energy consumption over long periods of time requires creativity and discipline, and Hines has been highly successful in this area – while also broadly promoting the ENERGY STAR partnership to clients, employees and tenants."
In addition to emphasizing the importance of energy efficiency to its tenants, Hines offers its "GREEN OFFICE for Tenants" program to enhance sustainable operations within tenant spaces.
"Energy efficiency is one of the most important value drivers in today's real estate economy," said Hines President and CEO Jeffrey C. Hines.
"We use ENERGY STAR in tandem with Hines' proprietary building management tools to maximize performance, minimize risk and preserve long-term value."
Hines is also a leader in the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED®program.
Last week, Hines announced that its portfolio of developed, owned and/or managed properties in the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED program had exceeded 100 million square feet, representing nearly 200 projects.
About ENERGY STAR Awards
Sustained Excellence Awards are given to organizations that have exhibited outstanding leadership year after year, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by setting and achieving aggressive goals, employing innovative approaches, and showing others what can be achieved. Award winners are selected from more than 17,000 organizations that participate in the ENERGY STAR program.
ENERGY STAR was introduced by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 1992 as a voluntary market-based partnership to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through increased energy efficiency.
For more information visit www.energystar.gov.
Hines is a privately owned real estate firm involved in real estate investment, development and property management worldwide. The firm's historical and current portfolio of projects that are underway, completed, acquired and managed for third parties includes 1,111 properties representing more than 451 million square feet With offices in more than 100 cities in 17 countries, and controlled assets valued at approximately $22.2 billion, Hines is one of the largest real estate organizations in the world.

Q: Refreshing Offline OData : Clean up non-matching entities on client? Regarding on offline-enabled SAPUI5 / Cordova app deployed through SAP Cloud Platform Mobile Service..
I Recently saw a blog mentioning how non-matching offline entities can be removed after a refresh using the config.
https://blogs.sap.com/2017/08/04/offline-odata-new-features/
Ability to clean up non-matching entities on client
There was no additional detail provided so can anyone shed some light on it as the feature could be really useful.
The alternative would be to perform DELETES on all non-matching offline data

A: The Solution was to set "Local Data Expiration" to 0 in the Offline Configuration of Mobile Services.

Ten figures were sealed in ice, creating a chilling miniature hill.
This included Quan Chen, who was sealed right in the middle.
Zhao Feng saw that in half a day to three days, Quan Chen would die due to the cold. Since Quan Chen had not even reached the 5th Sky, it was impossible for him to break through the power of the two arrows. Only Yang Gan had the power to do this.
Zhao Feng nodded his head and smiled. The current situation was looking great for Zhao Feng. The small ice hill had sealed off the entrance and it became a protective barrier, which allowed him to destroy the arrays inside.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Feng had appeared in front of the drawer which contained the half transparent, old cloak. The ancient and mysterious aura it gave off quickened his heartbeat.
Because of the interference just then, the array had healed itself, which meant ZHao Feng had to start all over again.
Zhao Feng thrust out his palm and a streak of lightning appeared, which caused the drawer to shaked slightly and the white glow to dim faintly.
After gaining insights into a bit of the Floating Crest Lightning Seal, Zhao Feng had reached the high level in Lightning Wind Palm.
The fifth level of the Lightning Wind Palm was far stronger than the fourth. At this level, he could use lightning to numb the opponent, but one needed to gain understanding of lightning first.
If he hadn't gotten the Floating Crest Lightning Seal, Zhao Feng would probably have to spend a long time gaining comprehension and understanding.
Zhao Feng's attack rate wasn't fast and he didn't use his whole strength, but the damage of every move was comparable to the 4th Sky.
Zhao Feng could feel the lightning in every palm, which could numb the opponent. If the enemy was weak. Zhao Feng's first palm could shock the opponent, causing him to be unable to move.
Through the attacks, Zhao Feng kept on perfecting Lightning Wind Palm since the Lightning Wind Palm was a rough work - the creator hadn't perfected it.
Zhao Feng kept on changing it and the Floating Crest Lightning Seal also helped. While he was perfecting it, the danger involved also dropped.
This meant that Zhao Feng's fifth level Lightning Wind Palm was much more powerful than those of others who had trained it.
He had used this to force back Quan Chen just then. One had to know, Quan Chen was at the pinnacle of the 4th Sky and he had a Middle grade Mortal weapon.
Under this situation, he was still pushed back by Zhao Feng head on - from this, the power of the Lightning Wind Palm could be seen. If Zhao Feng fully activated the power of his bloodline, he had the ability to even kill Quan Chen in one palm.
Peng! Si! Peng! Si… !
Zhao Feng's attacks followed a rhythm, neither fast nor slow, but it still caused the array to dim with every hit.
At the same time, the array would heal itself and reduce Zhao Feng's damage but overall, the array's power was decreasing.
Through the attacks, Zhao Feng would further perfect the lightning wind palm and increased its power while decreasing its danger.
Of course, his stamina was limited. He would take a small break every hour and take a gulp of spiritual wine or eat some pills every four hours.
In the blink of an eye, two to three days had pa.s.sed.
A thunderous palm smashed onto the white glow of light and shattered it.
Zhao Feng's expression turned to joy as he quickly grasped the worn cloak.
According to Zhao Feng's understanding, the array would slowly mend itself even though it was fully broken. Zhao Feng inspected the dark grey cloak and he inserted his True Force inside to inspect it. When he put in a small amount of True Force, the cloak only seemed to become more transparent.
Zhao Feng put the cloak on and he inserted more True Force into it as well as putting some power of his bloodline in. Suddenly, an unseeable aura enveloped Zhao Feng's entire body, which gave him the feeling like he was air. Through the inspections of his left eye, he realised that the light arriving at his spot was being bent, affecting the vision of others.
"Invisibility?" Zhao Feng's eye flashed and he said.
In the eyes of other beings, Zhao Feng was like the air. He didn't expect the cloak to have such a unique ability. Apart from that, Zhao Feng felt as if his body had became as light as a feather.
A ghostly figure flashed several yards in the treasury. Zhao Feng felt both his agility and speed increase dramatically. Through inspection, Zhao Feng had realised that this cloak had the abilities of invisibility and speed increase. But somehow, when he put only his True Force in, nothing worked. Only till he put in his bloodline power did the effects happen.
Zhao Feng didn't ponder too much over it. He calculated the time and estimated that the black metal monsters would start pursuing them in a few hours time. No one could face the attacks of the True Spirit Realm.
Zhao Feng scanned the treasury and he lightly sighed before walking out. The coldness of the ice hill had decreased dramatically. Zhao Feng's expression changed as he looked at it.
Zhao Feng put his full strength into his palm and he smashed it against the ice hill.
The ice hill split into pieces and the frozen guards shattered. However, there was nothing in the center of the ice hill.
Quan Chen's figure had disappeared.
Zhao Feng's eyes twinkled as he concluded. Every partic.i.p.ant had a Floating Crest Token merged inside them. Therefore, one could only kill someone if they had absolute strength and the ability to instant kill them before the token sent them out.
For the past few days Zhao Feng had kept on attacking the array while perfecting his Lightning Wind Palm at the same time. He didn't know what had happened or how Quan Chen had disappeared.
Zhao Feng's figure flashed as he walked outside.
A queer power enveloped his body as he put on the cloak. Instantly, Zhao Feng became a transparent figure and most of the guards surrounding the building couldn't even sense him.
The worn cloak could make Zhao Feng invisible and only if the latter moved fast would there be a ripple. At this instant, Zhao Feng's speed was comparable with the 5th Sky. More importantly, he only needed to put in his bloodline power once - he could continuously maintain it by using his True Force afterwards.
Zhao Feng laughed as he exited the castle. The instant he did so, he felt a pressure bear down on him, like he had been locked onto by a terrifying existence.
Yang Gan, Bei Moi, Ran Xiaoyuan… all the partic.i.p.ants in every location of the Sky Boundary Island felt a pressure. This pressure made their hearts skip a beat.
Was the pursuit about to begin?
Zhao Feng murmured as he scanned his surroundings with his left eye.
From ten yards away, a ripple and a devastating aura appeared which made it hard for him to breathe.
A glowing white door appeared in the area of the ripple and from it a blurry figure stepped out. It was a metal monster with a pair of wings three stories high with green eyes. A layer of green surrounded it and it released its aura - creating an airwave pus.h.i.+ng in all directions.
Zhao Feng's expression changed as he sped in another direction. The black metal monster released a soul-shaking howl, which caused Zhao Feng's heart to skip a beat.
The pair of wings waved in the air as the black metal monster leapt at Zhao Feng.
An existence at the True Spirit Realm was pursuing him! Zhao Feng's bones went cold as he became a blurry figure that sped off into the distance. Luckily, the monster's speed was only comparable to the 2nd Sky, just a bit faster than the first stage.
If the black metal monster's speed was too fast or even at the same level as the cultivators, no one would last a day. This was because it was at the True Spirit Realm, which meant that it's True Force would be ten, twenty times denser than those at the Ascended Realm and it would be able to chase for months without a problem.
Zhao Feng soon shook off the monster, but the latter would soon catch up if he took a break.
What was more terrifying was that the black metal monster's speed increased bit by bit over time.
There might be great rewards in the Sky Boundary Island, but the trial won't let you find them without work. At the same time, all the other disciples faced this pursuit.
Within the ancient forgotten garden.
Bei Moi scuttled out of a green palace and ran around in circles around the garden. Behind him, the black metal monster followed him and its terrifying aura caused the nearby beasts to scatter in fear. The Bei Moi at this moment was stronger than before - he had broken through to the 4th Sky two days ago, but he still had to run.
Yang Gan who was at the half step - 6th Sky only had the choice to escape as well.
Facing an existence at the True Spirit Realm, it didn't matter if you were at the 4th or 6th Sky since you would both be instantly killed in one hit! All the partic.i.p.ating disciples were running away.
---- The last stage had just begun.

Mike's Carwash Inc. will use a new design at two locations that are under construction in Anderson and West Lafayette.
Mike's plans a ground-breaking ceremony Wednesday for the $4 million Anderson carwash, which is at 5010 S. Scatterfield Road in front of a Wal-Mart.
"We have always wanted to be in Anderson. We've been looking for a great site, and now that we've found one, we're really looking forward to serving the people there," CEO Bill Dahm said in a prepared statement.
The stores are expected to open this fall and bring the Indianapolis-based chain's total to 39 stores in Indiana and Ohio. Each store has about 15 to 20 full-time and part-time employees.
Mike's plans to add three new stores a year. "We are completely focused on growing," Dahm said.
In the new design by Indianapolis-based Cripe Architects + Engineers, an awning covers four vehicle-intake lanes, and offices are in a two-story tower. Exterior materials are in neutral tones of grey and white. Signs no longer will contain the word "Express." The company said the facility will feature a "high-tech, high-powered self-serve vacuum system."
Mike's is a family-owned company worth about $49 million with real-estate holdings valued at $24 million, according to a lawsuit filed last year by former owner Jerry Dahm, a cousin of the current owners. Bill and Mike Dahm are the only shareholders in the company, which their father Joe Dahm started in 1948 in Fort Wayne.
Mike's is the fourth-largest carwash chain in the country, the company said.

Polymerization-Induced Phase Separation Formation of Structured Hydrogel Particles via Microfluidics for Scar Therapeutics View Full Text
S. Guo, G. Kang, D. T. Phan, M. N. Hsu, Y. C. Por, C. H. Chen
Excessive scar formation can form disabling contractures that result in a debilitating psychological outcome. Sustainable hydrophobic corticosteroid release in vivo is essential to regulate the wound healing process. Functional hydrogel particles are widely applied for sustainable release. However, due to the limited aqueous solubility of hydrophobic compounds, most of the corticosteroid is released from the hydrogels within seconds, causing undesirable scar formation and recurrence. In this study, a novel polymerization-induced phase separation is investigated to form well-defined polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) core/alginate shell structured hydrogel particles using microfluidics without toxic organic solvents. Based on their wettability preference, hydrophobic corticosteroid-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles are compartmentalized in the PEGDA core during polymerization to control the corticosteroid release. The distribution of the PLGA nanoparticles is precisely regulated by the phase separation boundary and characterized using a fluorescent dye. The thickness of the shell and partition coefficients are determined using the UV intensity and irradiation period. Upon encapsulation of the PLGA nanoparticles within the poly(PEGDA) core, a long-term corticosteroid treatment is developed and effective scar therapeutic outcomes are evaluated using both in vitro and in vivo models.

Sustainable hydrophobic corticosteroid release in vivo is essential to regulate the wound healing process. Functional hydrogel particles are widely applied for sustainable release.

Oh Debbie – every time I read your words, I cry. But today, I feel they were more tears of joy than of sorrow. I believe she IS coming to you, and that gives me hope. T'm glad you're getting stronger and more confident; I doubt you'll ever get over losing her – how can you, when she's your heart? But that's ok, and you know that. Sending you hugs….you, too, are a warrior.
Thank you Paula, thank you so much. I don't think I'd be where I am without my tripawds family. I need the hugs and kind words. I won't get over losing her but I tell myself all the time it's ok, there are no rules here, just feelings. I try to be a warrior but when I falter I come here to my tribe for reinforcement. You never let me down.
After reading rhe link I posted below, you will have no doubt…zero doubt…that Patches is communicating with you! Clearly he is still your teacher and you are his student…a very good one at tat!
I'll be checking back in a bit to see what you think after you've read about the dandelion. I'll write more then.
Wow…..I had no idea what the dandelion symbolized. No surprise she chose the to be "her" flower and then her sign. I love it It's hard to doubt not one but TWO seeds floating in my face. Thank you for the extra "insurance" Sally. I want to know she's ok SO BAD and of course if it's anything except her standing in front of me talking, I tend to doubt. Thank you for your reassurance and for taking the time to find that for me. You're so sweet. Once again, you lift my spirits and make me smile. And I too love the memories of dog toots and how funny my two babies were. I miss her so bad it hurts but it is getting better. I know I'll miss her forever and that's ok. How could I not? She has a piece of my heart and she's holding it for me until I see her again. I hope you're doing well. Thank you for helping me once again. It means the world.
It is hard and our journey is one that no one one understands unless they go through it. I am not just talking the grieving I am talking our whole journey. We have a bonding like no other. I am glad you are smiling more and Patches is sending you signs. Yes, signs like that "Penny from Heaven" only it can be something only we know about or that our babies show us that they are around.
Thank you Michelle and you are 100% right. It's NOT just about the grief……it's the stress, worry, guilt, all of it and more that is involved with dealing with canine osteosarcoma. It's not a club anyone wants to be in but once you're in it you can't believe how wonderful the other members are. I truly appreciate you being here for me and helping to validate my signs from Patches. You know how bad it hurts and I'm sorry that you do. And even as you lost you are helping me deal with my loss. I'm always humbled by the love I find on this site.
Debbie I'm at the same place you are at. It was Max's one year amp anniversary on Sept 1. I spent much of that day reliving the last year in my mind. While it's still terribly painful, I do find myself not crying every day. The tears are still close but now I can control them they don't control me anymore. I love that sweet Patches has chosen dandelions to send you messages. I know a lot of people don't like them but I've always looked at the yellow on the sea of green lawn as Gods paintbrush. And as they turn to white it's the circle of life beginning again. I love what Sally shared with you. That sums up my relationship with the dandelion perfectly. Thanks for sharing that Sally! Holding you guys in my heart and sending you much love and many hugs.
I'm so sorry Linda. Right now you and I are still "in the trenches". This site has people at all stages, looking at the trench, in the trench, out of the trench and traumatized by the time spent there. It hurts like nothing I've ever felt and we all know it all too well. I LOVE the way you describe dandelions. For some reason I've always love them, even as a kid. They fascinate me for their tenacity, beauty and versatility. The same can be said about my Patches so she picked the perfect flower. The symbolism is no coincidence. I know how you're feeling right now and I'm sorry about you losing Max too. We can cry together, smile together and come to our loving tripawd family when it gets to be too much. I'm sending you hugs, love and understanding as we wade through the trench we find ourselves in.

Earlier this year, JR East announced that they would be retiring the MAX Series Shinkansen, which currently serves the Joetsu, Tohoku, and Nagano Shinkansen lines.
The phase-out is slated to begin in July 2012, with a complete withdraw by 2016.
The E1 and E4 Series Shinkansen are 8 to 16-car double-decker trains. Between the E4 and it's double-deckered cousin, the slightly older E1, they run under the service name MAX, which stands for Multi-Amenity eXpress.
Despite the name, it doesn't provide any additional services outside of other Shinkansen running throughout Japan, but it does have the capacity to hold a lot of people. For example, a 16-car E4 train has seats for 1,634 passengers, which currently holds the record for the highest-capacity high-speed rail trainset in the world, and has held that title ever since the train went into service in 1997. In comparison, the E1 is a 12-car trainset which has a seat capacity of 1,235 and entered service in 1994.
12-car E1 Series - Fun Fact: You could fit the population of Vatican City into this one train. There's even enough room for the Pope to have his own car.
Soon after it's upcoming retirement was announced, I was curious to why the MAX Series was slated to go into retirement in the first place.
At first sight, the E1 and E4 don't appear to be that aged nor worn out…and that's because they're not. Both have been in service for no more than 17 years, and when you look at the E4, it still has a very modern design to it. It's a look that has been inherited by the newer E5 and E6 Shinkansen Series and will probably used for future trains beyond those. And when you compare the age of the E1/E4 with the 0 Series Shinkansen, the granddaddy of them all which was in service for 44 years, they're still babies.
The E1 and E4 both have a maximum speed of 240 km/h (150mph). The E5 current runs along the Tohoku Shinkansen line at 300 km/h (186mph) and is slated to run at 320 km/h (200mph) from 2013. Because of their size, the E1 and E4 simply don't have the ability to operate at that speed.
''But wouldn't replacing a double-decker train with a single-leveled train reduce the overall number of seats available?" I thought to myself. However, replacing the MAX Series with faster trains would allow additional trains to enter the timetable, offsetting the reduction in seats.
Since JR East hasn't released a formal press release as to why they're going to retire these trains, the above reasons are purely speculations that I've gathered from a number of sites.
However, in my personal opinion, there is a third reason that should be looked at.
Because the double-decker trains sit slightly higher than single-level trains, it allows great views of the scenery along the way…IF you sit in the upper deck.
When sitting in the lower deck, you either have a view of people's feet, a wall, or nothing at all because someone decided to pull the shade down over the window due to the lack of scenery in the first place.
I think for those reasons, the lower deck is usually the preferred seat for most businessmen using the Shinkansen for commuting to and from work because it's not as crowded as the upper deck, and they don't give a hoot about what's out the window since they're usually focused on their canned coffee (or canned beer if leaving work) and Mainichi newspaper.
Also, the seat configuration is different depending on which deck you sit in. The seats in the lower deck have a 2+3 (2 on one side, 3 on the other) configuration and all seats have the ability to recline. The seats in the upper deck are in a 3+3 configuration and none of them recline. This inconsistency in seating arrangement can be confusing to some, and in some cases, cause some decks to be completely empty while the other one is full. Perhaps another reason to retire the bi-leveled trains is to simply create consistency in one train since it better accommodates passengers, and also reduces the difficulty of having to design different arrangements for different parts of the train.
What will they be replaced with?
Nothing has been formally announced yet, but early signs point to them being replaced with the E5 Series.
On September 15th, the E5 was spotted at Echigo-Yuzawa Station in Niigata Prefecture during a test run. It was the first time the E5 was seen running along the Joetsu Shinkansen line.
i see what you're up to.
Since then, the E5 has been spotted on various days throughout the area.
Could this be the future of the Joetsu Shinkansen line? No one is expecting an E7 Series anytime soon, so this could become the norm for not only the Joetsu Line, but also the soon-to-be-extended Hokuriku Shinkansen Line (currently called the Nagano Shinkansen Line) to Toyama, which is slated to open from 2014.
Although I am excited at the possibility of riding new trains around where I live, I'll miss the MAX Series, the E4 in particular.
you think this distracts the driver?
The E4 was one of the very first high-speed rail trains I've ever ridden after coming to Japan, and it was the train I always relied on to take me back and forth to Tokyo. From my old apartment, I was able to see the shinkansen track from my balcony and there were countless times where I'd wait there to see the massive machines speed by. I guess I could say that the E4 is partially to blame for my deep fascination (obsession, maybe?) with trains. Heck, even my birthday cake a few years back was a MAX!
However, the opening of new lines and the operation of new trains mean that there will be new places to explore. With all the new development within the railway industry that is happening throughout the country, it only leads me to believe that my train journeys in Japan is just getting started.
Some of them are mine, others are gathered around the web. The ones which ARE NOT mine, have been hyperlinked and will direct you to the source from which they are from. Although a majority of them are from Japanese blogs and other sites, they're still worth looking at as some of the pictures are down-right gorgeous, whether you're into trains or not. Just thought you should know.


Hi, This article hopes to compare Toad v13.0 and SQL Developer v18.1 a bit. Since I work with both tools in my training business, people often ask me to point out the differences in the two. I hope to do so in an objective way.
Both tools have insights…popup of available objects/columns where you can click and add to your SQL. Both tools have a history of SQL executed.
Both have code snippets panel where you can drag and drop code examples/formats/hints/formatting/more to the editor window. SQL Developer has a separate snippets panel just for Analytical SQL.
Notice the slider bar, there are quite a few more selections than what would fit in this display box.
Toad has a more robust code template with just over 40 templates, where SQL Developer has templates as well; their code examples are both in SQL Editor Code Template area (fewer than 10 templates and work more like Toad Auto Replace) and has better code templates in its snippets panel, but again not very many of them.
Toad has quite a few more code templates and they can be setup to be quite interactive with substitution variables. Toad's templates are signaled with a short name and the CTRL + space bar, or just CTRL + space bar to bring up the whole list. SQL Developer's are signaled with their shortcut name and the space bar. Both allow for coding shortcuts, with SQL Developer using its Code Template setup and Toad usingits Auto Replace feature.
Toad has a considerable bit more in both the code template area and the auto replace area. Both tools have good coverage of SQL and PL/SQL topics, including optimizer hints that I use from time to time when doing SQL tuning.
Toad contains Code Analysis, a nice review using industry standard rules to view PL/SQL code complexity, complexity of the SQL inside the PL/SQL routines, and quality of the PL/SQL code in general. Developers can see how they did with both complexity of the PL/SQL and SQL code. Team leads can quickly see the complexity of the code and make sure the correct people are assigned to a coding project. Click here to read my blog on Code Analysis. SQL Developer doesn't have anything like this.
Both tools have a similar PL/SQL debugger. Both are intuitive to use.
SQL Developer's debugger in Oracle12 needs some additional permissions to run. I was caught off guard in a class becausethis feature that needed additional setup. I got quick assistance from the Oracle team and was referred to Galo Balda's blog. I'm not a network hack and his instructions were good but not quite complete. This blog did point me in the right direction and I was able to get the debugger working, but not in time for the class… In older versions of the database and perhaps older versions of SQL Developer, the debugger worked right out of the box.
There is a feature in Toad's version of the debugger that I like. I can start the debugging process in Toad just by pressing the 'Trace Into' button. SQL Developer, I need to put a break point after the Begin if I want to start line-by-line debugging (using the 'Step Into' from the beginning of the program.) Other than this feature, both debuggers work very similarly, as they both use the same interface into the Oracle RDBMS.
Toad has a nice interface to the PL/SQL Profiler.
Easy to use and get line-by-line execution time and number of passes in loops, etc. Easy to see exactly where your PL/SQL routine spent its time. Also, when you click on any line in the profiler output, the related line in the editor window highlights.
SQL Developer has a nice interface to the Hierarchical Profiler introduced in Oracle11. This profiler gives a considerable amount of additional detail. In the above 'Call Hierarchy' tab, you can see the lines that took the longest to execute as well. The first panel above gives additional information about the entire execution process.
Both tools have quite a bit of flexibility when it comes to the exposed Explain Plan content. Both tools can show the current explain plan after execution as well.
Toad can display the current Explain Plan after execution. Toad can also display Explain Plans in DBMS_XPLAN format. There are a few other display options as well. The tree format is more for the novice perhaps.
SQL Developer produces an explain plan and pulls in the outline and some additional information. This is the explain plan that it executed with and you can easily see any additional child cursors.
Toad does quite a bit more with the 10046 trace (pronounced "10 thousand 46"). This is a SQL trace that shows considerably more information about the executed SQL including wait events, time executed, and also the actual explain plan used with actual row counts. Oracle11 enhancements to the SQL trace facility included information from the estimated row (cardinality) from the hard parse. I find SQL trace a valuable tool when performing SQL tuning and I cover this feature in detail in my 2-day SQL Performance Tuning class.
Both tools display the wait events well but Toad has a great interface to run the SQL trace in an individual SQL statement!
Check these boxes and you don't even have to know the trace file name, let alone have to go find it down in the Oracle sub directories. Toad will run the trace on your SQL and bring the trace back in the TKProf interface (a great interface for TKProf) or the Trace File Browser (a true gem for interpreting SQL trace files). SQL Developer doesn't have this ability.
This interface has been Toad for a long time. For those of us who work with SQL Trace, this interface sure makes life easy.
SQL Developer has had this interface to the SQL trace for quite a while. It does not need TKProf. You do have to get the trace file to your workstation. The dropdown menus gives you similar sort orders of the SQL by type of statistic. This interface gives you the various useful runtime statistics but it does not give the actual explain plans with their actual row counts. It's good but not great.
This is a really cool feature only found in Toad. It's the Trace File Browser. If you are licensed for this, Toad will retrieve your trace file and open it up in this interface instead of the TKProf interface. This feature doesn't require TKProf. This facility MAY have been my idea! I was explaining to a friend on the Toad Team how it would be nice to have an interface that organized the SQL trace file contents by wait events. This way, you could quickly find the top wait events and go backwards to the offending SQL. The first Trace File image shows statement details, giving similar information to that of the SQL trace output. Go to the next tab over and view the Wait Events! The problem here slaps you in the face. Drill on that wait event with all the time and the bottom of the panel shows the SQL that threw that particular event and the time spent on that event. The problem SQL is that easy to find.
Toad also contains a part of SQL Optimizer, a proactive SQL tuning and advising tool for any single SQL statement. This tool actively reviews your SQL and makes changes and runs the SQL to find the best performing solution. Both Toad and SQL Developer can run the Oracle SQL Tuning Advisor, part of the Oracle RDBMS.
There are more differences, such as reports. Both SQL Developer and Toad have quite a number of pre-written reports that display top SQL, Oracle parameters, tablespace information, and more. With SQL Developer, it is rather easy to imbed your own SQL into this report interface. Toad has imbedded a full-featured report writer from DevExpress.
Toad has a master detail record viewer, SQL Developer does not. Both tools have a query builder, but I feel Toad's is more robust and you can convert the SQL to ANSI joins or regular syntax and appears to do quite a bit more with where clauses, sub queries, and other parts of SQL. SQL Developer's seems to only do ANSIjoins and the columns for the WHEREclause appear to need to be selected before you can add compares. Being honest, this is my first look at SQL Developer's query builder and I have used both Toad's and Toad Data Point's query builder quite a bit.
Toad has a Code Testing component. This code tester can run and rerun ALL of your tests that you define to it, or, just give it parameters and it generates the tests. This kind of setup makes testing the code again when there has been changes a snap! It's a full regression testing kind of environment too. Toad allows you to also automate this testing flow so running the testing becomes a snap. Click here to watch a video about using Code Testing.
Toad can do quite a bit of database administration, including creating/working with/and moving the new Oracle12 PDBs to the cloud. Toad has a number of additional database checks, health checks, and other features on its DBA version of Toad.
Toad has an interface to a shared environment called Toad Intelligence Central where your code and reports can be shared with others, executed from there, distributed from there, as well as some controls over groups and who can see what.
Quest has a Toad product for over a half dozen different databases. Toad has various flavors at various costs. SQL Developer is for the Oracle database and is free from Oracle Corp. SQL Developer has interfaces to many of its various database types such as TimesTen and APEX.
I hope you find this information helpful when working with these tools.


As a several accessories makers information, "iPad mini 5" which will take over iPad mini 4 is said to follow the design of iPad mini 4.
It seems to continue such as Touch ID, Lightning connectr and 3.5mm headphone jack by applying either A10 Fusion chips, the same iPhone 7, iPad (6th generation) or iPad Pro (10.5-inch), Apple TV 4K (5th generation), the same as A10X Fusion chip.
The iPad mini 4's back mike position is the same with iPad Air 2, but iPad mini 5'a back mike position changes to the center of the upper back as iPad (6th generation), and its aim is to lower its cost by the parts in common.
Although it is not clear if iPad mini 5 can be used Apple Pencil (1st generation), even if it can be used, it seems to be not the Apple Pencil (2nd generation).

Kurina rink going National
By Woodard, Dale on March 7, 2020.
Dale Woodard
Lethbridge Herald
sports@lethbridgeherald.com
The Kyler Kurina rink started the U18 provincials off slowly, but ended with guns blazing.
Actually, both teams did.
But at the final stone it was the Lethbridge Curling Club rink of skip Kurina, third Evan Crough, second Garrett Johnston and lead Zac Duncan that emerged with this years U18 provincial curling title following a win over Team Sonnenberg in the gold medal game last weekend in Sexsmith.
It's the foursome's first provincial title and as a result will send them to their first nationals as Kurina and his crew pack their sliders at head to Sudbury, Ont. for this year's nationals April 21-26
"It was our first time making provincials and now we have nationals, too," said Kurina Friday afternoon at the Lethbridge Curling Club, where he's back in action with the LCI boys team of third Lowell Whittmire, second Braeden Petro and lead Joe Iwashita at the Alberta Schools Athletic Association high school provincials.
But last weekend in Sexsmith it was a gradual climb for Kurina and his U18 rink as the foursome lost their first game of the week.
They regrouped, got used to the Sexsmith Curling Club ice and made the final.
When they did, both teams were ready.
"It was a lot of hitting," said Kurina. "Team Sonnenberg played really well. I think both teams played 90 per cent. It was a good game, everybody was dialled in. We were tied coming home and he had to hit and draw to the four foot and rolled out and we took the win."
Getting to play in a gold medal where both sides were mostly lights-out made it that much more fun.
"It was awesome," said Kurina. "You want everybody to be able to play each other at the highest they can."
Back home a week later and going for an ASAA high school curling title with his LCI rink, the reality of their U18 title and upcoming trip east has become a reality for Kurina.
"It's finally sunk in," he said. "It didn't sink in when we played. At the last rock it was like 'Did that really just happen' But I'm proud of my team. We worked throughout the season and nationals was our goal."
The nationals are over a month away and Kurina and his rink have three more bonspiels on the schedule in between a few weekends off to rest.
Then, they'll face the rest of the country.
"I think it's going to be awesome," said Kurina. "We're playing on arena ice and curling club ice. So it will be neat to have spectators sitting around you on the blue carpet with all the officials, so it's going to be different."
"We have goals and we set them throughout the week," said Kurina. "Our biggest one is probably getting used to arena ice and club ice because they're a lot different. We'll play as good as we can."
This is the second year Kurina has played with his U18 team.
"We play on the Alberta Junior Curling Tour, so all these teams have played together for years and you start to get to know them," said Kurina. "It was kind of out of the blue, but it worked."
In the meantime, Kurina donned his LCI colours at provincials and as of Friday afternoon, he and his boys teammates were off to a 4-0 start.
"We had a little bit of a rocky start (Thursday), but it was good today," said Kurina. "There are a lot of hard teams. I'm pretty impressed. A lot of the shot-calling is similar to the competitive U18."
In Friday's action, the Catholic Central mixed team finished round-robin play at 4-0.
Catholic Central defeated St. Paul Regional 6-5 and Blessed Sacrament 9-1 to take first in Pool A
The Coaldale Kate Andrews mixed team is 3-1, defeating Calgary William Aberhart 13-1 and St. Paul Regional 5-3 on Friday.
The LCI mixed team is 1-3 after the round-robin. On Friday, they lost 10-1 to High Prairie E.W. Pratt and 9-7 to Barrhead.
In boys Pool A play Chinook is 2-2, losing 10-5 to St. Paul Regional and dropping a 7-4 decision to Calgary Henry Wise Wood Friday.
Also in boys Pool A play Friday, Warner sits at 1-3 after a 13-3 loss to Castor Gus Wetter and a 7-6 win over St. Paul Regional.
In girls Pool B play, LCI and Cochrane each have 3-1 records after Friday's play.
LCI beat Hillside 11-2, but lost 5-4 to Westlock R.F. Staples.
The Vulcan County Central girls team is 1-3. They beat Cochrane St. Timothy 10-3 Friday morning, but were defeated 8-2 by St. Paul Regional in the final draw.
Necessary tie breakers will take place this morning at 8:30 a.m. with the boys, girls and mixed semifinals following at 11 a.m.
The gold and bronze medal games for each division take place at 2 p.m.

Virginia Beach pushes ahead with pursuit of arena
By Aaron Applegate
This rendering shows how a proposed professional sports arena would look next to the Virginia Beach convention center.
The City Council voted 9-2 Tuesday night to keep exploring a deal to build an 18,500-seat arena near the Oceanfront that could be home to a professional basketball team, which sources have identified since August as the NBA's Sacramento Kings.
The nonbinding vote signals support for the framework of the current proposal, which includes $241 million in city money, $150 million in state money and $35 million from the sports and entertainment company Comcast-Spectacor. Comcast, which would lease and operate the arena for 25 years, is negotiating with the team to move to Virginia Beach.
Council members downplayed Gov. Bob McDonnell's decision announced Friday not to include money for the arena in his next budget.
"None of us around this table expected" him to add that to the budget, Councilman Glenn Davis said at the afternoon work session. He said the governor has indicated support for the project but could not back it without seeing more details.
City officials said that for the project to move forward, a deal will need to be in place by the start of the General Assembly session in early January. Legislators could then vote on whether to issue the $150 million in bonds requested by the city. So far, legislators have had mixed reactions to the plan.
City officials have said revenue from the arena would cover the cost of borrowing the money for it.
The cost of the arena is estimated at $346 million, plus $80 million to help the team relocate.
City officials said Tuesday that additional costs are likely. City Attorney Mark Stiles has retained a Richmond law firm to help the city on the project. He said that cost will depend on how far the deal progresses. An arena consultant may also be asked to do more work. The city and its economic development authority have committed about $1 million so far.
Councilmen Bill DeSteph and John Moss were the two "no" votes. They said they lack confidence in the numbers used to project arena revenue and would like to see Comcast put in more money.
If a deal is reached and the General Assembly supports it, the City Council would likely vote on it in February or March.

AVA supports greater investment in mental health
Amidst the unfolding global COVID-19 pandemic, our amazing and dedicated veterinarians have continued their essential work leading animal health and welfare, providing care and compassion for animals and the wider community.
World Veterinary Day 2021 is a tribute to this collective effort, as we celebrate the tireless work of veterinarians, who despite the initial shock of the pandemic to our community, have quickly adapted their daily work activities to incorporate the added challenges of social distancing requirements, remote-consultations and increased use of personal protective equipment.
The pandemic has also seen a surge in demand for veterinary care, as people spent more time at home with their pets, or took on new pets. Coupled with travel restrictions contributing to fewer veterinarians being available to work, veterinarians in practice have been busier than ever, and the strain on veterinary mental health and well-being is evident.
Already facing a shortage of veterinarians prior to the pandemic, routine everyday procedures in veterinary practices during this unusual time took much longer due to the intricacies of providing socially distanced care when treating animals.
In some practices, veterinary staff split into teams to ensure the availability of veterinary care should a team member test positive or need to self-isolate. As a result, veterinary staff have been working longer hours, with fewer hands on deck.
Recognising the interconnection between people, animals, plants, and our shared environment, the pandemic has also highlighted the important work of veterinarians in One Health, as they contribute as part of global collaborative and multidisciplinary efforts to achieve optimal health outcomes for both animals and people.
Despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, veterinarians have selflessly put the care of their patients first in difficult circumstances to benefit the health and welfare of animals and society. On World Veterinary Day 2021, we sincerely acknowledge and celebrate our incredible veterinarians - thank you.

Gaurav looked a worried man. On enquiry I found that his worry was indeed worrisome and not a figment of imagination. Gaurav was the Product Manager of an enterprise software product, still in its infancy and at monetization pressures from the investors. The sales team had finally managed to bag a customer for a long-term agreement. As the roll-out of the product starts, Gaurav figures out that several items committed by the sales does not align with the overall vision of the product. Now that the sale is done, the onus is on the Product Manager to keep the sales team honest!
A product walks with the foot of the Product Manager. Crippling of that foot – even if temporary – can have long-term negative consequences for the product. It is important for a organization to arrest such a development and nip in the bud so that the product is in safe hands. What could be the solution? It is very difficult to prescribe something in cases such as this as the solutions could be as big as organization re-structuring or as small as getting every stakeholder in synch at frequent intervals. But admitting that there is a problem is the first step in solving the problem.

Is it snowing in Espot Esquí ?¡Gracias!
With a respectable 930m vertical drop, Espot Esquí is a quiet resort whose domain is surrounded by a National Park -Parc Nacional d´Aigüestortes-. Despite being considered a familiar resort, Espot Esquí also offers great piste and off-piste possibilities for expert skiers. Venue for international competitions, Espot Esquí is increasing in popularity among advanced skiers across the Pyrenees.
Espot Esquí, previously known as Super Espot, is in Spain. It is a small ski resort with 7 ski lifts (2 chair lift, 5 surface lifts) and an impressive 930 metres (3050 feet) of vertical descent. Espot Esquí has 22 pistes and snow making facilities over 10.6 kms of the terrain.
Perfect station to spend a day with the whole family. Two detachable chairlifts serve the slopes, all of them groomed by 3 snow-grooming machines. The station has a really friendly and comfortable round restaurant on 2000 metres. Good blue level slopes and two magnificent red slopes: "La Pala d'Eixe" and "La Rampa". Nice black slopes and freeride areas.

Q: strip Unicode? hyphen and whitespace from string php i am trying to grab a label value from a select list using jquery, write it to a hidden text input and then display that value in php template. --(there is no way to access the field directly in the data, this is my work around.)
so i can grab the label value, pass it to the hidden and display. BUT the label is formatted like so "  - latest news"
i want to strip the whitespace and hyphen/minus symbol so i am left with "latest news"
by trying the usual functions and them not working it occurred to me, when it didnt work that these may be unicode characters. when i use the following:
$mycategory = preg_replace('/^\p{Z}+|\p{Z}+$/u', '', $mycategory);
$mycategory = htmlentities($mycategory, ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8");
$mycategory = str_replace("-", "", $mycategory);

echo '<h1>'.$mycategory.'</h1>';

line 1 i replaced the unicode white space at the front. that returns "- latest news"
line 2: i changed the entity into html
line 3: i got rid of the entity. but that returns " latest news"
so i cant get rid of that last space with trim or the preg_replace. i have no idea how to get rid of it. if i put the blankspace in with the search term on line three it breaks the replace.

A: Well,,,
grrr..had to open php :)
 $str = '- Latest news !*#';
 echo preg_replace('/[^[:alnum:]\s]/','',$str);

Thomas Franklin West (November 23, 1874 - February 23, 1931) was an American attorney and politician from the state of Florida. West served as a justice on the Florida Supreme Court.

Early life and education
West was born on November 23, 1874, in Milton, Florida. He attended Washington and Lee College in Virginia, graduating  with a law degree in 1899. The following year, West was admitted into the Florida Bar, and began a private practice in Milton.

Political career

Florida Legislature
West, a Democrat, was elected to the Florida House of Representatives in 1902, representing Santa Rosa County. In 1903, Governor William Sherman Jennings appointed him to the commission tasked with revising the state's statutes.

He served until 1904, when he was elected to the Florida Senate for the same county. In 1905, he introduced the original plans for the drainage of the Everglades, aided by Governor Napoleon B. Broward.

While in the state senate, West also worked with the Governor Albert W. Gilchrist, a progressive Democrat, to propose an amendment to the Florida Constitution which called for the adoption of two popular Progressive Era reforms, the initiative and referendum. The proposition, designated as House Joint Resolution 222, easily passed both chambers of the Florida Legislature, despite the protest of the conservative minority. In 1912, however, anti-progressives were able to legally prevent the amendment from appearing on the ballot that year.

Florida Attorney General
West served in the Florida Senate for two terms until he was elected Florida Attorney General in 1912. During his tenure, West most notably oversaw two tax-related cases: one brought by the Pullman Company arguing against the taxation of sleeping car companies, and the other, Rast v. Van Demis and Lewis Company (1916), arguing against licensing taxes. Both cases were ruled in favor of the taxes. In 1915, West did not accept an appointment to Florida's First Circuit Court opting to run for reelection in 1916 instead.

West additionally served as the President of the Florida Bar from 1915 until 1916.

In the 1916 Florida gubernatorial election, West refused to endorse the Democratic candidate, former Florida Treasurer William V. Knott, claiming he was dishonest and had no regard for the law. West instead endorsed the Prohibition candidate, pastor Sidney Johnson Catts, who had initially run for the Democratic nomination, losing to Knott in the primary. Catts defeated Knott by over 9,000 votes, becoming one of two elected Prohibition candidates, alongside Charles Hiram Randall, a U.S. Representative from California. West was reelected in the same election cycle.

Later career
As thanks for his endorsement,  Catts appointed West to the Florida Supreme Court on September 1, 1917, after the resignation of Justice Thomas M. Shackleford. West was selected as Chief Justice by the court on February 28, 1923, and served in that position until December 3, 1925, when he was appointed by Governor John W. Martin to Florida's First Judicial Circuit Court, the same position he refused a decade prior.

Personal life and death
West married fellow Floridian Alma Chaffin. They had two daughters, Josephine and Alma.

West worked as a judge until the day of his death, dying from influenza in Pensacola, Florida, on February 23, 1931. He is buried in the cemetery of the Coldwater Church, a Mormon church in Milton.

I'm sorry I haven't found time to play much with the Manic Maker, but between having been crazy busy at work the last 3 weeks - and working on getting an age-old WIP into a releasable state - I just haven't had much surplus time lately.
But I've finally managed to finish up that damn vector invaders game I came up with the idea for back in July 2010.
It's been sitting almost finished for many years now, but 2-3 weeks ago I decided to finally finish off the last couple of missing bits and make it releasable, so here's the final version of: "Neon Invasion Earth".
I hope it'll bring some of you a bit of joy...at least 5 minutes anyway.
...I can only say that now I've finally released it has (finally) brought me some joy.
Looks awesome, will check it out later.
im remember im got a wip for a about 2 years ago or such. im havent try yet, but will wait after vaccation. but looks cool and hopefully you did used the old music, which could suit that game as well.
...and hopefully you did used the old music, which could suit that game as well.
I did ... and it's great.
Gonna check today mate, my latest drug is the games which kill me in 40 seconds or less!
Mate, tears flowing, got to Level 7 (3000+ score) and the game froze. This can only happen to me. It is white screen and cursor spinning, like in pic.
Win10 here mate, all was good until this moment, I think it was trying to get to level 8 but decided not to.
Just got a chance to play. Really impressed. Got to level 27.

'Nobody has said anything about the magistrate'
Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, has told the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Usman Alkali Baba, to unravel the motive behind the recent invasion of the residence of Justice of the Supreme Court, Justice Mary Odili in Abuja.
According to Wike, it is curious that weeks after the invasion, the Magistrate who issued the search warrant has not been interrogated.
Governor Wike stated this when he led a delegation of Rivers' elders and elected representatives to the IGP at the Force Headquarters, Abuja on Tuesday, November 16.
"We believe we should get to the root of this matter and anybody who is directly or indirectly involved should face the wrath of the law. It does not matter the person's position. That is the only way somebody can stop saying if a Justice of Supreme Court, second in command, could face this, what about the ordinary people, what will happen? I am quite confident that you will unravel whatever that has happened."
"Nobody has said anything about the magistrate, and we believe that the magistrate is not unknown."
On his part, the IGP Usman said the suspects involved in the invasion of Justice Mary Odili's residence are still in police custody amid ongoing investigation.
"We wrote a letter to the Chief Registrar of FCT to release the magistrate, and instead of releasing him, they replied our letter, plus his statement to us. So, we don't want to pick any quarrel. What we needed was the statement. We are working with the statement. He has not denied the fact that he has issued a search warrant and that is what we wanted to confirm."
