Well done to all those who took part in this year's Simonside Cairns Fell Race, situated just outside of Rothbury.
Although weather conditions were fine for running, the same couldn't be said for conditions underfoot. To describe them as ghastly would be an understatement of the highest order. Snow, ice, waist deep bogs and foot high exposed tree stumps were just some of the obstacles competitors had to contend with. And I haven't event got on to the couple of half mile long ascents that had to be tackled with the first two miles of the course.
Saturday's cross country race was a walk in the park compared to this beastly event.
Despite the fantastic efforts of Sparrow Morley, Rob Clark and Paul Turnbull, Northumberland Fell Runners (NFR) narrowly beat Tyne Bridge to the Men's team prize.
Many thanks to Vicki Deritis for the following photographs.
DD looking at a patch of ice ahead and thinking 'don't slip'. But he did!!
Special mentions to Louis for finishing second, Gareth for running with a broken rib and Sparrow for choosing to run with twice his bodyweight in kit and still finish 8th.
This is developing into a nice little battle between TBH and NFR!
I would also like to give thanks to chap who happily watched me take the wrong route down a track, which more than got the competitive juices flowing.
It was another beautiful day out with great company and I've not had such a well earned and great tasting pint as the one downed in the Newcastle Hotel post race for a long time!

Q: Relation between number 0-faces and 1-faces of simple polytope I want to prove the following:
$d*f_{0}(P)=2*f_{1}(P)$
where P is a d-dimensional convex simple polytope in $R^{d}$ and $f_{0}(P)$ denotes the number of vertices of P and $f_{1}(P)$ the number of edges of P.
A d-dimensional polytope P is simple, if every vertex is contained in exactly d facets of P.

A: Every vertex of a simple $d$-polytope is incident to $d$ edges.
So the total number of vertex-edge incidences is $d \cdot f_0(P)$.
Every edge is incident to 2 vertices.
So the total number of vertex-edge incidences is $2 \cdot f_1(P)$.

In his recent interview with The New Yorker, U.S. President Barack Obama drew a striking comparison between the Los Angeles Lakers and al Qaeda. "[I]f a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms," he said, "that doesn't make them Kobe Bryant." Similarly, he went on to explain, there is a "distinction between the capacity and reach of [and Osama] bin Laden and a network that is actively planning major terrorist plots against the homeland versus jihadists who are engaged in various local power struggles and disputes, often sectarian."
Obama's quip drew harsh criticism from many on the political right, which accused him of trivializing terrorism. "It's a flippant, arrogant, and ignorant comment," said Oliver North, the former United States Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel. Yet however politically attractive this argument might be, it is false on its face. As Obama hinted, it is a simple fact of life that not all terrorist organizations pose an equal threat to the United States and its allies.
This flap could not have been timelier. The al Qaeda of yesterday is gone. What is left is a collection of many different splinter organizations, some of which have their own -- and profoundly local -- agendas. The U.S. response to each should be, as Obama put it, "defined and specific enough that it doesn't lead us to think that any horrible actions that take place around the world that are motivated in part by an extremist Islamic ideology are a direct threat to us or something that we have to wade into."
The implications of such an approach are far-reaching, but they need to be directly and immediately applied in Syria. Today, two different al Qaeda affiliates, the al-Nusra front and the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), are battling each other in Syria's Raqqa province. Perhaps Oliver North might argue that it is incumbent on the United States to take out both groups. But a more nuanced take

Tenant to Operate Internet-Based Used-Car Business From Mattapoisett Self Storage in MA
Eric Desrosiers, a tenant of Mattapoisett Self Storage in Mattapoisett, Mass., received a business license from town officials this week to operate an Internet-based used-car business to be called "Eric's Pre-Owned Vehicles." Once spaces are available, Desrosiers will be permitted to store up to three used vehicles at the 7 Industrial Drive storage property, the source reported. Because of concerns voiced by his landlord at the license hearing, Desrosiers will also conduct his sales transactions at the storage facility.
Vera Gibbons, the landlord for Desrosiers rental home on Captain's Lane, expressed concerns about where Desrosiers' sales transactions would occur. She asked the town board to prohibit Desrosiers from conducting transactions at his home or the other rental homes along the street, which is a private road.
"He could be driving down and meeting somebody to sign papers, and there's eight houses there," Gibbons said. "I want Mr. Desrosiers to stand on notice that if we see cars on Captain's Lane that do not belong there, his living there could be jeopardized." She also asked if car-sales transactions were permitted at the storage property.
"[Mattapoisett Self Storage] did not imply that a transaction could not occur there. You can sell a car just about anywhere," said Jordan Collyer, selectmen chair.
Desrosiers also agreed to other stipulations, including advertising the cars online only, using a P.O. box as his company address, and conducting sales during the storage facility's business hours, Monday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Selectmen approved the business license application with the stipulations.

Q: MongoDB regex query with property that can be null Writing a MongoDB regex query in Spring with a field that can be null.
I want to query documents by name and phone:
Query(value = "{ {'name' : {$regex:?0,$options:'i'}},
                          {'phone' : {$regex:?1,$options:'i'}} }")
Document findByFullNameOrPhone(String fullName, String phone);

The value I'm passing through the query for phone is ".*" in an attempt to match everything.
It works but the problem is phone is a field that can be null. If the document has no phone value it's not included in the query result. Is it possible to use this query to find all documents in the database, even if the document does not have a value for phone?

A: Just add null check.
Query(value = "{
  'name': {'$regex': ?0,'options': 'i'},
  $or: [
    {'phone': null},
    {'phone': {'$regex': ?1,'options': 'i'}}
  ]
}")

Given the high number of ICO scams that have already been committed, it is especially important to have an ICOs comparison list before making an investment. Indeed, Satis Group conducted a study on the best ICOs with a $50 million market cap and above. The findings were grim, with 81% of them being scams. Therefore, in order to have a trusted list of trustworthy ICOs, you will need the ultimate checklist to easily pick off the scams.
An ICO is not a product in itself, but a way of raising capital for a product. As such, it is important to know exactly what the product is and whether it has merit. To provide this information, the ICO will have a whitepaper, detailing what the product is and what it is meant for. A good example is EOS, which was a project to create a blockchain that uses smart contracts to host decentralized applications. Opposite of that is something like OneCoin, which was offering 'educational packages'. The difference here is that in the former case, the idea had merit because it was targeted at solving a particular problem while the latter wasn't.
Do the founders and developers have credit?
The only reason exit scams have become so prevalent is because people invest in ICOs even before they know who are behind the project out of FOMO (fear of missing out). To avoid these scam ICOs and pick only the legitimate ones, take time to investigate those behind the project. The idea is that you shouldn't trust those you don't know with your money – simple enough. For example, in the case of OneCoin, the founder Ruja Ignatova already had a criminal past since back in 2012, even pleading guilty to fraud. You should make sure that those behind the project have both experience and a clean reputation.
Is the project's roadmap feasible?
Also in the white paper should be a clear roadmap of how the company hopes to grow within months and years. A clear roadmap with concise goals shows you that the project has been clearly thought out and that it has a future. Sure, they may not achieve all the goals in time, but the effort indicates a level of seriousness. Scammers never have a roadmap because their only goal is to get some money and run.
What is the reward structure like?
This is very important in an ICO because it shows how investors are rewarded. Outright ICO scams will promise huge returns like Bitcoin Savings & Trust (BCS&T) with promises of 7% returns per week, even though they don't explain how this money is going to be raised. Then there are pyramid schemes that only pay you when you recruit other investors. To know a legitimate ICO, it should have a clear and reasonable reward structure.
Finally, you can learn about legitimate scams from what other investors are saying. If the opinion of a particular ICO leans toward the negative, it's best to stay away from it.


From lush dahlias to bright orange marigolds to stalks of raven-red amaranth, autumn shows up for foxy flowers! This transitional season is truly ripe with bodacious blooms. It's in that spirit that I'm excited to share a practice inspired by biodynamic flower farmer Lindsay Lord of Growing Ecoculture for creating a simple dried flower bouquet to help you honor the end-of-season bounty.
For those of you who follow Loam on Instagram, you might know Lindsay thanks to her gorgeous homegrown and heart-filled bouquets that have made their way into many of my photos. Her vibrant and vital bouquets interweave farm-fresh flowers, blades of grass, and tendrils of herbs to create rich studies in the seasons. In the face of a mainstream flower industry that is toxic to the people and the planet, Lindsay's little business creating bountiful from-the-farm florals is proof that flower farming can enrich our souls and our soil.
This idea of asking for permission is so vital. It's a reflection of Lindsay's love of listening and a reminder to each one of us to never take without asking first. As you gather together your bouquet, I hope you will ask permission and give gratitude at each step along the way. It's what transforms this creative exercise into a cathartic process.
There are several flowers—like starflower, globe thistle, yarrow, feverfew, statice, and eucalyptus— that are particularly suited for drying. To dry, harvest blooms on an arid day (wet stems can create mold) and hang with thread from the ceiling.
If you still have access to fresh flowers, I've offered insight into creating a seasonal bouquet as well. For those of us who are fortunate to live near to a farmers' market, check out what blooms are bountiful in your neck of the woods. And if you don't have easy access to organically grown flowers—true for so many of us—consider sustainably foraging for grasses and herbs to create a sweet bouquet. As Lindsay's botanical body of work illuminates, there truly is so much beauty in what we have and where we are.
Gather together flowers for your bouquet. If you are foraging for grasses and greens from your neighborhood, make sure you know what you are taking and always ask permission from the plant and place before harvesting.
Create a beautiful arrangement to inspire joy! If you are working with fresh flowers, be sure to trim the stems at an angle to help your beauties retain water. If you are working with dried blooms, get creative with containers.
When your fresh florals have run their course, give back the petals to the soil by creating a mandala. If you are working with a dried flower bouquet, enjoy that baby! It'll last a lifetime. And no matter what, give thanks for the flowers.

I'm a little groggy today having inadvertently spent half the morning sleeping. Usually the sun coming through the window or the kids hollering outside would have woken me up on a holiday but here the bedroom is dark and the neighborhood as quiet as a national forest in winter. My mind is still clinging to vague dreams that I can't quite remember but still feel haunting the far corners of my consicousness.
I'll be having dinner with the family so I'm thankful for that and I'm thankful for my new PJs. They are indeed cozy and warm. I'm thankful for this gig, to feel like I'm doing useful if only for a week. By the end of it I should be back in better shape again.
Hoo boy am I feeling muscles I forgot I had today. I didn't have time to change into my sneakers yesterday so walking a mile and a half in clogs has taken its toll. I'm practically hobbling. I'm thankful the weather is going to break and it's going to be warm today and tomorrow. It will help.
And of course, I'm thankful for you dear readers, who bear with me through my morose whining and inattention to this place and celebrate the good moments with me as well. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday with good food, great company and your favorite football teams all win.

Q: Override eslint settings in non-ejected create-react-app? I've found a ton of "solutions" for this, ranging from simple package.json additions to custom hack modules, but none worked for me.
I simply want to override the eslint settings for an out-of-the-box, NON ejected create-react-app.
Namely, the rule "no-unused-vars".
I'm using Visual Studio Code.

A: I seem to have fixed this accidentally just trying combinations of things I found online. This seems to have worked.
1) I created a .env file in the project root (where the package.json file is). In it I have:
// .env file

EXTEND_ESLINT = true

2) Then I created a .eslintrc file (no extension) in my project root and added this:
// .eslintrc file (no extension)
{
  "extends": [
    "react-app"
  ],
  "rules": {
    "no-unused-vars": "off"
  }
}

A: The library now supports extending the pre-defined ESLint rules natively, see the relevant docs.

The gist of it is that you will have to set the EXTEND_ESLINT environment variable, and then add your own ESLint config to the project root, optionally extending create-react-app's:
{
  "eslintConfig": {
    "extends": ["react-app"],
    "overrides": [
      {
        "files": ["**/*.js"],
        "rules": {
          "no-unused-vars": "warn"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

A: In the create-react-app project package.json is ready, you just need to add the rules field.
package.json
"eslintConfig": {
  "extends": [
    "react-app",
    "react-app/jest"
  ],
+ "rules": {
+    "react/self-closing-comp": 1
+  }
},

It's important to note that any rules that are set to "error" will stop the project from building.
create-react-app uses eslint-config-react-app, which contains almost all popular eslint packages.

*

*eslint-plugin-flowtype

*eslint-plugin-import

*eslint-plugin-jest

*eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y

*eslint-plugin-react

*eslint-plugin-react-hooks

*eslint-plugin-testing-library
eslint-config-react-app github
https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/tree/main/packages/eslint-config-react-app
eslint-config-react-app npm
https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-config-react-app

A: its not hard, just follow these steps:

*

*npm i -D eslint eslint-plugin-react

*npx eslint --init

*edit the generated config file, for example .eslintrc.json

*put your rules in the "rules": { ... } section

Extreme food allergy possible from single bite
Now there's a new reason to fear tick bites. It's a potentially deadly allergy that starts with the dreaded insects. Once people are exposed, they can be stuck with a horrific food allergy for years or life.
Disease-bearing ticks lurk in grasses and wooded areas across most of the US and tick-borne diseases are on the rise according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as spring warmth brings out the ticks.
"I looked like a monster when I went in there," said Brenda Thomas of her first visit to the emergency room for the allergy. "The hives were on my scalp, they were in my ears, in between my fingers. It was the worst allergic reaction I've ever, ever had. But, we had no idea at the time what it was."
Thomas suffered allergic reactions and endured ER visits for a year and a half before she finally found an allergy specialist who discovered she developed an allergy to meat from a lone star tick bite. A blood test confirmed Thomas suffered from Alpha-gal syndrome.
"I never saw the tick. I never realized I had even been bitten by a tick," said Thomas. "That's the odd thing. I have no inkling when I was infected."
Thomas since learned that two others in her rural Virginia neighborhood also contracted the syndrome.
The ticks can pick up the Alpha-gal carbohydrate from a previous mammalian host and transfer the sugar to humans through saliva during a bite or feeding. The transfer can take hours or up to a day, according to the CDC.
Some people's immune systems release antibodies to combat the foreign substances such as alpha-gal carbohydrates. As with Thomas, each time she eats meat, milk or gelatin, those antibodies attack and can cause hives, swelling, headaches and anaphylaxis. She has passed out before on the way to the hospital and had to call an ambulance after having trouble breathing because her throat was swelling.
Lyme disease is one of the most common tick-borne diseases.
The allergic reaction can take up to eight hours after eating meat, so most people can't identify what caused the reaction.
There is no cure for Alpha-gal syndrome. Thomas goes for yearly testing. After several years, her doctor said her antibody levels are not low enough to allow her to eat meat safely yet. "Even if he told me I could eat red meat, I don't think I would because I don't think I want to go to take that chance again," said Thomas.
The lone star tick earned its name from the distinctive white dot on the back of females. It is widely found across the eastern half of the nation in grassy, shrubby and wooded areas, but it has been moving farther north and west bringing trouble with it.
"Ticks 'quest,' they hang on some vegetation with their back legs while holding out front legs to grasp a host that walks by," said Amy Korman, Ph.D., Extension Educator with PennSate Extension and entomology expert.
Need for blood
Birds, deer, dogs, humans even reptiles and amphibians host ticks. All ticks need a blood meal to grow from one life stage to the next. "The larva feeds on small rodents. The next stages, the nymph and adult, prefer larger hosts," said Korman.
The CDC lists many tick-borne diseases, the most common is Lyme Disease, a bacterial infection. The CDC estimates that 476,000 Americans were diagnosed and treated for Lyme disease in 2021.
The CDC advises you to remove a tick immediately if you see one on your body.
"Depending on the location 1%-50% of black-legged ticks may have the bacteria," said Korman.
Black-legged ticks take 1-2 days to transmit the bacteria. Antibiotics can arrest the disease if caught very early. If not treated immediately, people could suffer inflammation of the brain and spinal cord, heart palpitations, arthritis with severe swelling and pain, shooting nerve pain and facial palsy (loss of muscle tone or droop of face).
"A neighbor has Lyme disease pretty bad," said Thomas. "She ended up having to quit her job and she's almost disabled."
What to do if you find a tick
Remove a tick immediately if you find one on your body, advises the CDC. Grasp the tick as close to the head as possible with a pair of fine-tipped tweezers and steadily pull. Don't jerk, twist or crush the tick. Make sure to remove the head from the skin.
Wash the wound and your hands with soap and water or rubbing alcohol. Dispose of the insect by flushing it down the toilet, sealing it in a bag or put in alcohol before throwing away.
The Virginia Department of Health said you could preserve the tick by freezing it in a plastic bag or adding alcohol to the sealed bag to identify the species. But, the CDC stated that not all lab results are high quality and should not be used for medical treatment decisions.
Wear long pants and sleeves outdoors to help prevent tick bites.
Most people, they stated, would develop symptoms before the lab results would return. So, monitor the wound and nearby skin for rash and yourself for fever, chills, headache, fatigue, muscle and joint ache and swollen lymph nodes.
"I often find ticks on myself, it comes with the job," said Korman. "I wouldn't see a physician unless I got sick or noticed something unusual."
Korman directs those looking for tick testing to the Wildlife Genetics Institute at East Stroudsburg University.
Prevent tick bites
Avoid wooded and brushy areas with high grass and leaves to avoid the ticks. Those who camp, hike, garden and hunt should take precautions, according to the CDC:
Wear long pants and sleeves
Treat clothing, boots and camping equipment with permethrin (at least 0.5%) products. Read the instructions, the repellant still works after several washings.
Use an EPA registered repellant containing DEET, picaridin, IR3535, Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus, para-menthane-diol or 2-undecanone. The EPA has an easy site for reference: Find the Repellant that is Right for You.
When you return home, check for ticks:
Check all pets, clothes, gear and backpacks for hitchhiking ticks.
Wash clothes in hot water or tumbling on high heat in the dryer for 10 minutes (longer if clothes are damp.)
Shower to remove lose ticks.
Check your body in the mirror, especially: underarms, in and around ears, belly button, back of knees, in and around the hair, between the legs and around your waist. Don't forget to check the kids too.
If you are bitten by a tick and have allergic reaction or underlying disease, contact your doctor immediately.

How to ask questions of a direct who doesn't communicate during One on Ones, and why this approach is NOT micromanaging.
Sometimes directs don't share very much in their one on ones. Sometimes they're just not comfortable with developing a strong relationship with their boss. Sometimes they're not a naturally comfortable communicator. But managers must keep working at it. Asking questions about work and status is an effective way to do so - and it's not micromanaging.
How can I engage a non-communicative direct in a One on One?
What if a direct says they don't have anything during a One on One?
Is it micromanaging to suggest specific actions steps to a direct?

China gives banks room to increase lending
Central bank cuts reserve requirement ratio first time since February 2016
Published: September 30, 2017 16:34 Reuters
Beijing: China's central bank on Saturday cut the amount of cash that some banks must hold as reserves for the first time since February 2016 in a bid to encourage more lending to struggling smaller firms and energise its lacklustre private sector.
The People's Bank of China (PBOC) said on its website that it would cut the reserve requirement ratio (RRR) for some banks that meet certain requirements for lending to small business and the agricultural sector.
The PBOC said the move was made to support the development of "inclusive" financial services and will be available to all medium and large-sized banks that meet requirements starting in 2018.
The reserve requirement rate will be cut a further 50 bps (basis points) — or 0.5 per cent — for banks whose loans to the targeted groups account for 1.5 per cent of their balance of outstanding newly added loans for the previous year.
The rate will be cut a further 100 bps for banks whose loans to the designated groups account for 10 per cent of all loans, the PBOC said.
China's cabinet had recently flagged a possible move, saying the government will take a number of measures, including tax exemptions and targeted reserve requirement ratio cuts to encourage banks to support small businesses.
The PBOC said the move was made to support lending of under five million yuan to small firms, loans to individual proprietors and for agricultural production, and lending that supports innovation, the poor and education.
The move is in line with existing policy to encourage more targeted lending to more vulnerable sectors of the economy, even as the government tries to cut down on speculative investment in the financial sector and property and rein in a rapid buildup in overall corporate debt.
But in the last two years, the central bank has preferred using new policy tools such as short- and medium-term lending facilities for a similar purpose. Most economists polled by Reuters had not expected an RRR move before 2018.
The PBOC said in a statement that the targeted RRR cut did not constitute a change to its prudent and neutral monetary policy.
RRR is the amount of cash as a percentage of deposits that banks must park at the central bank as reserves. The current rate for major banks was set at 17 per cent after the last general RRR cut that took effect in March 2016.
The central bank in February extended a preferential programme that allows financial institutions that support rural finance and small enterprises to apply for a lower required level of cash reserves.
But despite still-strong credit growth nationwide, many small businesses and farmers remain in desperate need of funds and do not have easy access to ample cheap credit that state-run firms enjoy.
Also on Saturday, the central bank said it will maintain prudent and neutral monetary policy and use multiple monetary policy tools to keep liquidity basically stable.
The statement, which came after the third quarter meeting of the PBOC's monetary policy committee, said China will continue with interest rate and exchange rate reform while keeping the yuan basically stable.
China's economy grew 6.9 per cent in the first half of the year, bolstered by a hot property market and a government infrastructure spending spree.
But business activity surveys have repeatedly shown large companies are reaping the benefits more than smaller ones.

Q: powershell log - new file every day I log network status (nslookup, ping, tracert) into a log file. The log file size grows and is quite difficult to work with after a while.
I am looking for a way to have a new log file created for every day. I am sure it's easy but I did not find a way.
When I set log file name to $log_file = ".\network_" + (Get-Date -f yyyy-MM-dd) + ".log" hoping it will create a new file when date changes, it does not work. Instead I get Non-authoritative answer:.
Sorry for newbie question but I really did not find any answer. Thx!
edit:
it's really simple script (shortened example below):
$log_file = ".\network_" + (Get-Date -f yyyy-MM-dd_HH-mm) + ".log"
$server = "server.com"
$gateway = (Get-wmiObject Win32_networkAdapterConfiguration | ?{$_.IPEnabled}).DefaultIPGateway
& ipconfig /all >> $log_file

while($true) {
$timestamp = "rnrn[" + (Get-Date -f yyyy-MM-dd) + " " +(Get-Date -f HH:mm:ss) + "]"
$timestamp >> $log_file
"rnrn" >> $log_file
"ping to $server)" >> $log_file
& ping $server >> $log_file
}

A: Here's what I usually do.
$Date = get-date -format yyyy-MM-dd
$log_file = "\\Share\folder\folder\FileName-$date.log"

A: You might consider the Log-Entry framework (also on GitHub) I published awhile ago:
It has basically all the features were you ask for:

*

*File is automatically truncated if it grows over ~100Kb (default)

*Time stamps

*Inline logging

*Proper type casting (e.g. notice that the $gateway has also a $Null property in my case)

Function Main {
    Log -File ".\Network.log"
    $server = Log "Server:" "192.168.1.1" ?
    $gateway = Log "Gateway:" (Get-wmiObject Win32_networkAdapterConfiguration | ?{$_.IPEnabled}).DefaultIPGateway ?
    Log "IP Config:" ((& ipconfig /all) -Join "`r`n")
    Log "Ping to $Server" ((& ping $server) -Join "`r`n")
}

The log will look like this:

15:28:17.84 End

A: I would suggest including the date/time (yyyy-MM-dd_HH-mm-ss) in the log file name (to prevent duplicate file names) and scheduling your script to run daily / hourly or whenever. Just tell the task scheduler service to end the task if it runs for X number of hours, where X is right before it is scheduled to start again. This should give you the intended result of a new file on the schedule you decide is best. This also ensures your script continues running even if the computer reboots.
If the size of the log file is your main issue, then I would suggest starting a new file based on the file size and not the date. This way you can choose exactly what size files you want to work with.
To do this, just change while($true) to while((Get-Item $log_file).Length -lt "100000") where the length is the size in bytes that you want the script to stop at.
To make your script create a new log file when the while statement is triggered, just wrap it in a function and then call the function using another while $true statement.
Here is the change:
function NetworkLogging {
    $log_file = "$PSScriptRoot\network_" + (Get-Date -f yyyy-MM-dd_HH-mm-ss) + ".log"
    $server = "server.com"
    $gateway = (Get-wmiObject Win32_networkAdapterConfiguration | ?{$_.IPEnabled}).DefaultIPGateway
    & ipconfig /all >> $log_file

    while((Get-Item $log_file).Length -lt "100000") {
    $timestamp = "rnrn[" + (Get-Date -f yyyy-MM-dd) + " " +(Get-Date -f HH:mm:ss) + "]"
    $timestamp >> $log_file
    "rnrn" >> $log_file
    "ping to $server)" >> $log_file
    & ping $server >> $log_file
    }
}

while ($true){NetworkLogging}

Oracle takes JEDI back to court with appeal to rebid contract
The Department of Defense awarded its 10-year, $10-billion enterprise cloud computing contract to Microsoft on Oct. 25, but a lawsuit that alleged that the requirements were constructed with Amazon Web Services in mind is still proceeding.
Oracle filed an appeal in its long-running lawsuit against DOD alleging multiple violations of procurement law and practices in putting the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure contract out for bid as a single-award, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity acquisition. Additionally, Oracle claimed that key figures with business ties to AWS helped shape the requirements to favor the cloud computing giant and that the Court of Federal Claims was in error when it accepted the contracting officer's "flawed determination that the admitted misconduct did not corrupt the procurement."
According to Oracle's filing, "a remand to DoD to resolicit JEDI lawfully and restore the public trust in this high dollar acquisition is both required and needed."
Does the JEDI award to Microsoft, which goes unmentioned in the filing, mean that Oracle is out of court when it insists the procurement was in the tank for AWS?
Not necessarily, said one expert on procurement law.
"Strange as it may seem, there's no reason to think that DOD's award to Microsoft dramatically alters Oracle's litigation -- or, more accurately, appellate -- strategy or its likelihood of success," Steven Schooner, professor of government procurement law at George Washington University, told FCW via email. "It might be easier to think of it as a largely unrelated parallel track."
Schooner said he doesn't think that the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals will second-guess DOD's exclusion of Oracle on technical grounds, but the facts of the conflict of interest established in the DOD's own report and included in the Court of Federal Claims decision could be decisive on their own.
"I could easily see a panel of Federal Circuit judges being sufficiently troubled by the conflicts of interest -- that Judge [Eric] Bruggink detailed at length -- and concluding that DOD has to take a step back and more proactively address those concerns before it can proceed," he said.
In his decision, Bruggink wrote that the "facts on which Oracle rests its conflicts of interest allegations are certainly sufficient to raise eyebrows. The [Department of Defense contracting officer] concluded that at least two DOD officials disregarded their ethical obligations by negotiating for AWS employment while working on this procurement."
Oracle's hope, according to the filing, is that a new JEDI solicitation might not contain the same kind of restrictive requirements with regard to security clearance and authorization and other factors it says were driven by conflict of interest. Additionally, DOD might opt for a multi-cloud procurement rather than rebid a single-award IDIQ and risk further legal complications.
"No factual basis exists for the apparent speculation that DoD would approach a remand with obstinate rigidity," Oracle stated in its filing.
Other vendors have objected to the single-award procurement in JEDI, including IBM and the eventual winner, Microsoft. In responses to DOD's 2017 initial request for information, Microsoft said that "DOD's mission is better served through a multi-vendor cloud approach."

You are here: Home / Archives for Secondary (KS3) / Unit 3 - One human family – values and worship
In this reflection students learn about worship in Maciene cathedral, Mozambique and compare and contrast this with experience of the Church in England. Students consider how each community could learn from the other.
There are opportunities to engage in discussion of social difference and privilege. Pupils develop their knowledge from KS3 through the use of the question: "Who is my neighbour?" The reflection aims to empower students with an understanding of how both communities can benefit each other in order to establish a sense of a global connection and neighbourly love.
Key Question
To compare and contrast the different worship styles in the UK and Maciene
Students think back over everything from the previous unit and answer the following question:
What would you expect to see at a typical church service in England?
They must:
Make a list of ten things in their books
Consider which one of those ten they like the most? Why?
Consider which one of those ten they like the least? Why?
Consider what would they change if they could?
Main Activity 1
Students look at a series of photos and a video of worship in Mozambique. They draw up a table in their books to highlight similarities and differences in worship. They then discuss these and must complete at least one of the following sentences:
One similarity of worship in England and Mozambique is…
One difference between worship in England and Mozambique is…
My favourite thing about worship in Mozambique is…
I think worship is better in England/Mozambique because…
My favourite thing about worship in England is…
Students go back to their worksheet from the last lesson – U3L2 The Perfect Service. They look at a quote from someone in Mozambique which says: "The church in England is dead. You have all these buildings but no faith. Where is your passion? Why aren't you spreading the message of God? I pity you…"
Students must imagine that they are part of a group sent over from Mozambique to improve the church in England. They must design elements of a church service which brings together the best of both locations and makes the church alive again.
They are given very specific criteria for this:
Level Criteria
3 Describe features of the new worship
4 Explain why you have chosen those features and the Mozambique influences
5 Explain how those features will impact the worship
6 Analyse the challenges in implementing the new worship
7 Evaluate the effectiveness of these different forms of worship
Pupils share their ideas as a class and discuss which ideas they like best.
All pupils will be able to describe an act of worship in England and in Mozambique
Most pupils will be able to give their opinions on the different styles of worship
Some pupils will be able to analyse how the styles impact the faith lives of the people who worship
Resources and Points to Notes
Worship in Mozambique PPT U3L3 Mozambique worship
Christians understand themselves to be part of a global family, joined through their common relationship with Christ today and his historic work of salvation through his life, death, resurrection and ascension.
Differences in styles and content of worship are not new – neither are questions about its proper content and ordering.
1 Corinthians 12-13 addresses an early Christian community in Greece, advocating order in worship, but also a respect for different styles of worship and its different components. Paul here articulates the primacy of love guiding the choices that are made in worship and in the conduct of the Christian community.
The consideration of diverse gifts, consistent with groups being 'different parts of the body' that need to work together. The same is true on a global basis with the diverse gifts and forms of worship within a global church.

In this reflection 'One human family, values and worship', students explore the importance of prayer in the UK and Mozambique.
To understand the purpose of prayer for individuals
To reflect on what we feel it is important to pray for
Students mind-map as many reasons as they can for why people pray. They must come up with at least five reasons and discuss with each other which one is most important to them. The class views the Prayer Powerpoint Prayer U3L2
Students answer the challenging question: Can people on different sides of the world feel connected by prayer? They must argue their own opinion and then reasons why some people may disagree with them as well.
Students come up with a list of five issues that both Maciene and their school – or your school and a partner school – they would want to pray for. They rank them in order of importance and justify their reasoning for the most important. The class is then split into halves. One half writes a prayer that a Maciene student might say for a student at their school and the other half write a prayer that the student at their school might say for pupils at Maciene.
Students must then start to consider ideas for the perfect service on the worksheet provided. The Perfect Service They fill in at least the first two rows on a worksheet with ideas of what they would do and why they would do it. They consider the different benefits of the service.
Students share ideas of what they would include in their service and what the benefits would be.
All pupils will be able to give a reason that people pray
Most pupils will be able to explain why community prayer is important
Some pupils will have reflected on ways to unite Twyford and Maciene through prayer
Resources and Points to note
Prayer PPT Prayer U3L2
Perfect service worksheet The Perfect Service
Exhortations to pray are found at 1 Timothy 2.8; with the rationale of seeking peace for all (i.e. including a global neighbour) at 1 Timothy 2.1-4; and Colossians 4.2.
James 5.13-16 lauds the power of prayer in various situations. The story of the persistent widow (Luke 18.1-8) advocates continuing to pray for a desired outcome. Jesus teaches his disciples to pray using the form of the Lord's prayer – i.e. giving worship to God; asking for the arrival of God's kingdom (see Unit 1 Lesson 3 above for the characteristics of the Kingdom); for deliverance from evil and trial; and for forgiveness of others. (cf. Matthew 6.9-15)
Christians understand themselves as joined as one – this unity having both spiritual and practical dimensions. John 17.20-21 – Christians are united together in God, just as Jesus and his Father are one. 1 Corinthians 12.12-13ff.; Romans 12.4-5 – Christians are joined together as one body by the Holy Spirit, as is manifest at baptism, which leads to an imperative that the diverse gifts present are used together and seen in relation to each other. Expectations follow on how to treat each other, including praying for one another (cf. Romans 12.4-13)
Worship content is also given in the references above
In this reflection students look to engage in ideas of worship through the life of Maciene School, exploring the importance of singing and prayer in 'One human family, values and worship'.
To understand the purpose of singing in worship
To reflect on how singing can improve worship in the UK and in Mozambique
Introduce 'Singing in worship' theme using 'Songs in Worship' PowerPoint Songs in worship U3L1 Students discuss how music is used at churches or places of worship that they attend or have attended. They explore what they enjoy about it and what they do not like about it. They then watch a clip from Eddie Izzard who imitates what singing in church can be like. (from 0.41 to 1.55 seconds)
Students mind-map different answers to this question:
Is it right to judge the quality of worship by the sound we hear? If singing badly makes the worship seem bad, why do churches continue with singing in worship?
Students then share their ideas with the class.
The class then watch a video clip of singing being used in church in Mozambique and discuss whether or not they like the way that singing is used. They share ideas of what is similar and different about its use here and in the UK.
Students listen to an audio recording of a song that was written by students at Maciene and Twyford CE High School. They glue United by Love lyrics into their books, read them and highlight the words that communicate its symbolism. What is the message of the song?
Students must then write their own song to reflect the connection between Maciene and their school.
Students share their songs with each other and discuss the symbolism in the lyrics that they have chosen.
All pupils will be able to give reasons why singing is used in worship
Most pupils will be able to understand how singing can link two different communities
Some pupils will have reflected on what they would include in a community worship song

Lyrics to United by Love United by Love lyrics
Singing provides for participation in the movement of the Holy Spirit in the life of God through scripture (Colossians 3.16) and in transformation of the believer's life (Ephesians 5.18-20)
Worship should build up the community and be offered in love (1 Corinthians 14.26; 1 Corinthians 13).

I gave my wife a gift card to have her 2006 Nissan Altima detailed at Rick's. We were pleasantly surprised how the car turned out. It looked fabulous and like brand new…..inside and out. We were extremely happy with the work done. Thank you for the outstanding job.


He grew up in an Orthodox Jewish household in New York's lower east side, the fourth generation to live there. He was discovered by a talent agent while singing at his brother's Bar Mitzvah and he has been entertaining the world ever since. On Sunday, Oct. 9, Sir Ari Gold headlines Atlanta's Pride festival. We caught up with Gold and spoke with him about his faith, his family and his amazing career.
Shannon Hames: I read your bio and found it fascinating that you grew up as a 4th generation Orthodox Jewish kid from the lower east side. What was that like?
Sir Ari Gold: I don't consider myself Orthodox anymore but my childhood experience was also unique. Not that being an Orthodox Jew is very unique in New York but I was in show business from a very early age, about 6 years old. I had these two very divergent paths going on at the same time.

Momona Tamada as Claudia Kishi
Shay Rudolph as Stacey McGill,
Alicia Silverstone as Elizabeth Thomas-Brewer
Mark Feuerstein as Watson Brewer

The show revolves around four girls in their early teens namely Kristy, Mary Ann, Claudia and Stacy. One day Kristy realizes that baby sitting is a good idea to make some pocket money early. She gathers her friends and forms the baby sitters club. Soon the girls start getting calls for duty but they have to manage their studies and family deadlines as well.
The baby sitters club also comes across a rival group named the baby-sitter's agency. They include a group of older teenagers who can drive and do not face curfew from parents. This agency steals all the clients from the club and puts the girls under immense pressure. Soon Stacy finds out that the members of the agency are least bothered about the safety of the children. As one of the child was seen wandering on the streets. She informs the parents of the child as soon as possible. But the agency sends a video to the clients of the club in which Stacy gets a diabetic seizure.
Through a lot of ups and down prom nights and school crushes, the girls are able to fully function in the club as they want.
Netflix has not revealed the plot for season 2, however, it will be worth a watch as to how the young girls manage their life while baby sitting.

Bringing an easier journey for donors to donate and make an impact in the world.
In today's era of technology, a website is a primary tool for every business and organization to achieve their goals, and fundraising organization is no exception. Fundraising itself always challenging and it is more challenging if the platform they use to fundraise isn't effective. PKPU as one of the philanthropy organization in Indonesia which is focusing on managing humanitarian fund already had an online presence and gain the humanitarian fund through their website, yet they think the user experience on their website wasn't effective enough to entice users to explore the site and donate through the website. Moreover, the journey to donate to their website was too complicated and puzzling. For that reason, PKPU tapped Suitmedia to revamp their website and bring an easier journey for users to donate.
Successful fundraisers have one thing in common, their donors trust them. Trust is a key in any relationship, and this also includes the relationship between a donor and fundraiser.
In today's digital society, building digital credibility is important to gain trust and website is a vital place for a non-profit to gain trust from their donors. The website's information architecture, interface, and its ease of use will become crucial factors that determine whether the site is trustable or not.
As the first step in building trust on the PKPU website, we organized the information architecture of the site and made it simpler to make digital giving easier so that PKPU can raise more funds for their charity and entice more volunteers to help the people in need. Then, we prioritized on what most important information that is needed by the potential donors.
Before the website development process, we found that the organization's mission, goals, objectives, and work was by far the most important information that people want to see on non-profit websites. Non-profits would collect much more from their websites if only they'd clearly state what they are about and how they use the collected donations. For that reason, we put a clear message that portrays the PKPU's objectives, mission, and their concern on the new website through compelling banner images on the homepage. That information also strengthens by information of the positive impact that PKPU have created to the society on the next section.
Then, we brought the information of PKPU's ongoing programs and directly put a button to donate in each campaign so the potential donors can have a direct and fast access to donate in the campaign that resonates with them. Donors will be stay informed of the activities of the organization and new users could also catch up on the activities of the PKPU's past efforts. Users also can see the campaign updates and an inside view of the campaign progress. Making the mission and actions of an organization clear and well-articulated help the organization's story resonate with potential donors.
Beside the information flow, we also have found that the design and user-experience contribute profoundly to the success of online fundraising and non-profit websites. The website's ease of use encourages giving by reducing frustrations of interacting with the organization online. To make the site easy to use by users, we used the idea of simplicity by removing unnecessary elements or content that does not support user tasks. We created an interface that subtly guides users from where they are to where they need to go through the use of several elements such as colors and visual hierarchies that are simple and effective. We also keep the registration, donation, confirmation, and volunteer form simple, clear, and trustworthy so that users won't be overwhelmed or feel burdened when they're filling the form.
The new website of PKPU, with well-articulated objectives, minimalist interface, and simple user journey, has been successfully building trust from the potential donors and volunteers to the organization so that more humanitarian programs can be done to make a difference in the world.

Medical payments coverage (also known as Med Pay) is the best bargain that you have on your auto insurance policy. The premium for this coverage is relatively cheap. Medical payments coverage is single-limit per person coverage. The coverages offered by insurance companies are generally $1,000.00, $2,000.00, $5,000.00, $10,000.00, $25,000.00, $50,000.00, and $100,000.00. This coverage pays for reasonable and necessary medical expenses resulting from an auto accident.
One thing to remember about this coverage, it is not fault-based. If you are driving your vehicle down the road, and you drive into a brick wall, and the accident is entirely your fault, your med-pay coverage still applies.
Your med-pay coverage also pays for the medical bills of every passenger in your vehicle at the time of the accident, regardless of fault. If you have five (5) passengers in your vehicle at the time of an accident, then you and your five (5) passengers all have med-pay coverage up to your limits. If you have $5,000.00 in med-pay coverage, you and every one of your passengers has this limit available to them for an accident.
The great thing about med-pay coverage in the State of Nevada, is that there is no right of subrogation. If your auto insurance coverage pays for your medical bills, and you receive compensation for the value of your injury claim from the adverse driver's bodily injury liability coverage, you are not required to pay your company back for the medical expenses that they pay under your med-pay coverage.
In the event you use health insurance coverage to pay for accident-related medical bills, your health insurance company will most likely have a "Right of Subrogation". In other words, if you receive money from the adverse driver's bodily injury liability coverage, you must pay back your health insurance carrier for what they paid out on accident-related medical bills. Some health insurance carriers will require you to sign a Subrogation Agreement before they pay your medical bills. The benefit of using health insurance coverage on an auto accident claim is that you obtain the benefit of any provider discounts which are associated with your health insurance policy. You are only obligated to pay back your health insurance carrier what they paid out, not the full amount of your medical bills.
We, as personal injury attorneys, always attempt to maximize the use of med-pay coverage and health insurance coverages on an auto accident claim. In the event you are involved in an accident, and you are transported from the scene by ambulance to a hospital, and the Trauma Team is involved, it is not unusual for your emergent bills to total $25,000 – $30,000.00. If you utilize your health insurance to pay these bills, you will reduce the costs of these bills substantially by plan provider discounts.
In an ideal situation, you will be able to use your automobile med-pay coverage to reimburse your health insurance carrier for their Subrogation Lien. As little as five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) in med-pay coverage may extinguish your responsibility for all medical bills and the Subrogation Lien of your health insurance carrier.
One thing to consider about auto insurance, is that the first layer of coverage costs the most. Raising your bodily injury liability limits, property damage liability limits, UM/UIM limits, and med-pay limits to higher increments of coverage, generally results in only a minimum increase in premium. In other words, if you double your coverages, your premium does not double.
Some insurance companies offer excess med-pay coverage, which only pays for bills which your health insurance carrier does not pay. This is not ideal med-pay coverage for you in the event you have health insurance.
Med-pay coverage is also not vehicle-specific. Once again, it follows you and your family to protect them in any accident involving an automobile. Also, auto med-pay coverage applies to auto v. pedestrian accidents and accidents which occur when you are not in your own vehicle.
Caveat: Offset. In the event you utilize med-pay coverage and UM coverage or UIM coverage on the same accident claim, your insurance carrier will obtain an offset for the amount of med-pay coverage paid by them.
In other words, if you have a UM claim, which has a value of $20,000.00, and your insurance company pays $5,000.00 in med-pay coverage, they will offset the value of your claim by the amount of your med-pay coverage. On a $20,000.00 claim, they will only pay you $15,000.00. This concept of offset was established by Nevada case law. If your claim is worth $25,000, and your carrier pays $5,000 in med-pay benefits on your claim, your carrier will pay you $20,000, if your UM coverage is above 15/30. Remember offset is subtracted from the value of your UM claim, and not from your UM limits.
Offset also applies to UIM claims. On UIM claims, your carrier also gets a reduction for the adverse driver's BI limits and offset for med-pay benefits paid from the value of your claim.
Med-pay coverage is the biggest bargain that you have on your auto insurance policy. Auto insurance carriers do not advertise med-pay coverage. I have never heard a commercial by an auto insurance carrier informing the public they offer med-pay coverage to their insureds. If you do not have health insurance coverage, med-pay coverage is a must, because you are more likely to be injured in an auto accident than by any other type of accidental injury.
