Written by: Daniel Immerwahr
Narrated by: Luis Moreno
We are familiar with maps that outline all 50 states. And we are also familiar with the idea that the United States is an "empire", exercising power around the world.

In How to Hide an Empire, author Daniel Immerwahr tells the fascinating story of the United States outside the United States. In crackling, fast-paced prose, he reveals forgotten episodes that cast American history in a new light.

Journey to Ixtlan
The Lessons of Don Juan
Carlos Castanada was a student of anthropology when he met Don Juan Matus, a Yaqui shaman and the inspiration for Castanada's The Teachings of Don Juan. In this controversial work, Castanada relays his experiences being challenged by his mentor on his perception of the world and all living things in it.
The Teachings of Don Juan
A Yaqui Way of Knowledge
For over 40 years, Carlos Castaneda's The Teachings of Don Juan has inspired audiences to expand their world view beyond traditional Western forms. Originally published as Castaneda's master's thesis in anthropology, Teachings documents Castaneda's supposed apprenticeship with a Yaqui Indian sorcerer, don Juan Matus. Dividing the work into two sections, Castaneda begins by describing don Juan's philosophies, then continues with his own reflections.
The Art of Dreaming
The author of The Teachings of Don Juan reveals the spiritual adventures that can be attained through dreams, describing his own journeys into new worlds by using ancient, powerful techniques.
reads it like a storey not an account
By keith lostracco on 2018-07-26
The Fire from Within
Fire from Within is the author's most brilliant thought-provoking and unusual book, one in which Castaneda, under the tutelage of don Juan and his "disciples," at last constructs, from the teachings of don Juan and his own experiences, a stunning portrait of the "sorcerer's world" that is crystal-clear and dizzying in its implications.
The Active Side of Infinity
In this audiobook authored immediately before his death, anthropologist and shaman Carlos Castaneda gives us his most autobiographical and intimately revealing work ever, the fruit of a lifetime of experience and perhaps the most moving volume in his oeuvre.

Magical Passes
The Practical Wisdom of the Shamans of Ancient Mexico
For us to perceive any of the worlds that exist beside our own, not only do we have to covet them but we need to have sufficient energy to seize them. In this revolutionary book, Carlos Castaneda offers listeners the key to this energetic conditioning for the first time, revealing a series of body positions and physical movements that enabled various sorcerers to navigate their own sorceric journeys. By sharing this wisdom, Carlos Castaneda makes it possible for listeners to travel to some of these other realms, which are as real, unique, absolute, and engulfing as our own world.
Written by: Marc Elsberg
One night, the lights go out across Europe. The electrical grids collapse on an epic scale and unleash a devastating chaos in the total blackout. And unbeknownst to the general population, nuclear reactors are starting to overheat. When a former hacker and activist who knows a thing or two about infiltrating networks starts investigating the cause of this disaster, he soon becomes a prime suspect.
The Shamans of Mexico Their Thoughts about Life Death and the Universe
Originally drawn to Yaqui Indian spiritual leader don Juan Matus for his knowledge of mind-altering plants, best-selling author Carlos Castaneda soon immersed himself in the sorcerer's magical world entirely. Ten years after his first encounter with the shaman, Castaneda examines his field notes and comes to understand what don Juan knew all along - that these plants are merely a means to understanding the alternative realities that one cannot fully embrace on one's own.

Silicon City
San Francisco in the Long Shadow of the Valley
Written by: Cary McClelland
Narrated by: Alma Cuervo, Ali Ahn, L. J. Ganser, and others
The tech boom of our time is changing San Francisco at warp speed. Famously home to artists and activists, and known as the birthplace of the Beats, the Black Panthers, and the LGBTQ movement, the Bay Area has been transformed by Silicon Valley. But the richer the region gets, the more unequal and less diverse it becomes, and the cracks in the city's facade begin to show. Inspired by Studs Terkel's classic works of oral history, writer Cary McClelland has spent years interviewing people at the epicenter of the Bay Area's rapid change: tech innovators, venture capitalists, coders, homeless advocates, pawn brokers, prosecutors, public defenders....
Narrated by: Alma Cuervo, Ali Ahn, L. J. Ganser, Jonathan Todd Ross, Luis Moreno
Written by: William S. Burroughs
In this funny, nightmarish masterpiece of imaginative excess, grotesque characters engage in acts of violent one-upmanship, boundless riches mangle a corner of Africa into a Bacchanalian utopia, and technology, flesh, and violence fuse with and undo each other. A fragmentary, freewheeling novel, it sees wild boys engage in vigorous, ritualistic sex and drug taking, as well as prankster-ish guerrilla warfare and open combat with a confused and outmatched army.

In 2010, Elizabethtown Area Communities That Care identified the use of alcohol and other drugs, by our youth, as a serious problem that was having a negative impact on the future of our youth and ultimately the health and safety of our community. We got busy researching the most effective methods for reducing youth substance abuse, which led to our application for and selection as one of only 700 coalitions across the nation to be a federally designated Drug Free Communities Coalition by the Office of National Drug Control Policy.
Drug Free Communities (DFC) is a congressional initiative born out of the recognition that the best way to reduce substance abuse is to have communities come together to create positive change. The 1997 Congressional Act established the Drug Free Communities Support Program, which falls under the direction of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy in partnership with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
Designation as a Drug Free Communities Coalition enabled our participation in a yearlong national training academy through the premier national organization "Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America" (CADCA). In addition to attending classes at one of three national training sites, we had multiple assignments to complete to verify that we understood and could implement "best science" strategies in fighting back against youth substance abuse.
What did we learn? Strong communities provide an environment for positive youth development. Just as youth behavior impacts the community, the health and values of the community have an impact on youth and their decision-making. When youth believe that adults view their unhealthy behaviors as "no big deal" they are more likely to start engaging in unhealthy behavior. Similarly if they believe it is unlikely there will be negative consequences for their behavior, they are more likely to risk trying the behavior. Kids are also more likely to engage in behaviors that they perceive all other kids are engaged in.
Drug Free Coalitions bring together collaborators within a community that have diverse perspectives, expertise, and resources. Our collaborators include: parents, youth, health care providers, youth service providers, enforcement agents, prevention specialists and educators, businesses, media, faith communities, volunteer organizations, and government agencies. These collaborations help us comprehensively address local problems with solutions that are tailored to the culture and environment of the Elizabethtown community. These strategies, programs and activities are aimed at changing community norms, attitudes and behaviors and reducing the availability of substances; thus serving as another pillar in our work to reduce youth substance abuse.

So maybe something like:
var toc = $("#toc");
$("footer").waypoint(function(event,direction){
    toc.css({
        position: "absolute",
        bottom: "403px"
    });
},{
    offset: toc.height() + 6
});

This way, once it detects that the amount of room between the top of the footer and the top of the page is equal to the total height of the #toc element, it'll go back to position:absolute and a bottom value of 403px. Adjust this to match the height of the footer and accommodate for the spacing you desire between the footer and the #toc element.
Here's an example.

A: Here's how I implemented it using the newest version of Waypoint, including unsticking the element when you scroll back up.
$('footer').waypoint({
    handler: function(direction) {
        if (direction == 'down') {
            $moduleTop.css({
                position: "absolute",
                top: $nextModule.offset().top - $moduleTop.outerHeight()
            });
        }
        else if (direction == 'up') {
            $moduleTop.css({
                position: '',
                top: ''
            });
        }
    },
    offset: $moduleTop.height()
});

Background: Exposure to cumulative contextual risk within the family early in life increases children's risk for substance involvement and related difficulties, including school failure, in adolescence and young adulthood. However, potential protective factors that buffer these risk associations are relatively untested, yet such tests are needed to improve existing preventive interventions for enhancing resilience among vulnerable children.
Objectives: This study tested child reading engagement with parents at home as a moderator of cumulative family risk associations with adolescent substance use and academic performance as well as young adult substance abuse.
Methods: Population register data as well as parent-report and adolescent-report data from 6,963 participants of the 1986 Northern Finland Birth Cohort study were analyzed via structural equation modeling with latent variable interactions.
Results: Results showed that child reading engagement moderated the associations of cumulative family risk with both adolescent academic performance and young adult substance abuse, but not with adolescent substance use. The highest levels of academic performance were observed under conditions of low risk and high reading engagement. Interestingly, cumulative family risk had a small positive association with substance abuse when reading engagement was low and a negative association with the young adult outcome when reading engagement was high.
Conclusions/Importance: Moderation tests revealed complex interaction forms that may have implications for both theory and family-based preventive interventions.

MPs urge Defra to suspend pesticide use due to bee decline
5 Apr 2013 05:15 PM
The Environmental Audit Committee has recently published its Pollinators and Pesticides report (formerly the Insects and Insecticides inquiry).
Report: Pollinators and Pesticides (HMTL)
Report: Pollinators and Pesticides (PDF)
Inquiry: Insects and Insecticides
Environmental Audit Committee
The Government must introduce a precautionary moratorium on three pesticides linked to the decline of pollinators - imidacloprid, clothianidin and TMX – that suspends their use on flowering crops attractive to pollinators, Parliament's cross-party green watchdog has said.
The Chair of the Environmental Audit Committee, Joan Walley MP, commented:
"Defra seems to be taking an extraordinarily complacent approach to protecting bees given the vital free service that pollinators provide to our economy.
"If farmers had to pollinate fruit and vegetables without the help of insects it would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and we would all be stung by rising food prices.
"Defra Ministers have refused to back EU efforts to protect pollinators and can't even come up with a convincing plan to encourage bee-friendly farming in the UK."
Two-thirds of wild insect pollinator species - such as bumblebees, hoverflies, butterflies, carrion flies, beetles, midges and moths - have suffered population declines in the UK. Managed honeybees have also experienced unusually high mortality rates, decreased fertility, increased susceptibility to disease and the loss of hives. Similar trends have been observed in the US and other European countries.
Disease, habitat loss and climate change can all affect insect populations, but a growing body of peer-reviewed research suggests that the use of one group of insecticides is having an especially damaging impact on pollinators — neonicotinoids. Applied to seeds, these systemic pesticides are widely used in the UK on oilseed rape, cereals, maize, sugar beet and crops grown in glasshouses.
Joan Walley MP said:
"We believe that the weight of scientific evidence now warrants precautionary action, so we are calling for a moratorium on pesticides linked to bee decline to be introduced by 1 January next year.
"This allows farmers to use treated seeds that have already been purchased for this growing season and gives Defra time to implement EU legislation on the sustainable use of pesticides.
Authorities in France, Germany, Italy and Slovenia have already suspended the use of certain neonicotinoids. The European Commission has also proposed an EU-wide moratorium on the use of imidacloprid, clothianidin and TMX on crops attractive to bees, following a recent risk warning from the European Food Safety Authority.
The UK has refused to take domestic action or to support the EU proposal.
Many of the UK's largest garden retailers, including B&Q, Wickes and Homebase, have voluntarily withdrawn non-professional plant protection products that contain neonicotinoids. The report recommends a full ban on the sale of neonicotinoids for public domestic use, which could create an urban safe haven for pollinators.
"The Government should follow the UK's leading garden retailers in recognising that action needs to be taken to save our bees. There is no justification for people continuing to use these products on their Dahlias when they could be having a detrimental effect on pollinator populations.
"Banning the sale of neonicotinoids for domestic use would at least create an urban safe haven for bees."
Pesticide manufacturers often claim that studies linking their products to bee decline are flawed or inconclusive and that other factors are primarily to blame, such as the Varroa mite. But although the agrochemical industry has produced many studies on the environmental effect of pesticides, it keeps most of its data secret on grounds of commercial confidentiality.
The report warns that this lack of transparency is preventing a fuller understanding of the problem. The MPs call on the industry to place the results of its trials and studies in the public domain so that they can be subjected to open academic scrutiny.
Defra should help companies establish which genuinely commercially sensitive details need to be redacted to make this possible.
Joan Walley MP added:
"Pesticide companies often try to pick holes in studies linking their products to bee decline, but when pushed to publish their own research and safety studies they hide behind claims of commercial sensitivity.
"The industry must open itself to greater academic scrutiny if it wants to justify its continued opposition to the precautionary protection of pollinators."
The Government's National Action Plan for the Sustainable Use of Pesticides published earlier this year was a missed opportunity, according to the Committee.
Clearer targets are needed to reduce reliance on pesticides as far as possible. And Integrated Pest Management – which emphasizes alternatives to pesticides, but does not preclude their use – should be made the central principle of the plan.
Joan Walley MP concluded:
"More research is needed to monitor pollinator populations and establish the impact that particular pesticides are having, but Defra must not use this as an excuse to avoid urgent precautionary action."

Netflix has just announced that Jessica Jones will be returning for a third season. Jessica Jones season 2 premiered in March to fairly good reviews although most viewers will contend it failed to live up to the first season.
This news a welcome one to fans of the Defenders universe that Netflix has been home too. Disney has recently announced the creation of their own streaming platform, one which will house Marvel and Star Wars live action content.
Many have wondered if this would be the end of the road for Netflix and the street level world of heroes they have been building.
Jessica Jones Season 3 adds to a list of additional entries we have to look forward to, such as Dare Devil Season 3 and Luke Cage Season 2. No date has been set but I would guess we won't see our favorite powered PI return until fall 2019 at the earliest.

The Sports Leaders Qualification is a nationally recognised qualification, which develops leaders and leadership skills in planning and evaluating sports activities.
Whalley Range 11-18 High School received Sports Leaders Academy status last year and are only the 5th school in the Northwest to receive the accolade, putting Whalley Range at the forefront of sports leadership across the country. With a committed team of sports leaders from all year groups work, working collaboratively together to develop their own individual leadership skills and ensuring PE and physical activity remains at the heart of Manchester.
Our leaders are provided with a variety of opportunities within the sports leadership programme giving students opportunity to be involved in primary and secondary schools competitions, such as primary Netball, Football and Basketball to name a few, secondary opportunities allows students to be involved in intra and inter-school competitions. Through these opportunity, leaders are provided with a variety roles they can do, such as officiating, leading, scoring to name a few.
Leaders are used within lessons to support in leading activities and their peers, students will have opportunity to lead at extra curricular clubs.
Through partnership with the Manchester PE Association, leaders have the opportunity to be rewarded for the hours the contribute voluntarily through working towards Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum awards. Each award represents a specific number of hours that leaders have contributed to through their leadership whether this be in inter school competitions or leading at extra curricular clubs. Since the start of the programme, Whalley Range 11-18 High School leader has invested in over 3000 hours of leadership for the school community, this is a fantastic achievement.
Our Sports Leaders have been involved with Sky Sports for the past few years, in which they are able to work with athlete mentors developing leadership skills and organising and leading on specific projects, some of these include Year 5/6 day, and inter-hour tournaments. Athlete Mentors have include Courtney Fry and Rik Waddon to name a few.

Promoting democracy in Namibia
Who gets to speak?
Media coverage of elections has over the years been severely criticised for being event and personality driven and for not focussing on the issues affecting the electorate.
Too often journalists opt for easy coverage – campaign events and which politicians says what where and when – instead of holding politicians accountable for their service delivery records on the issues that affect ordinary citizens.
Politicians see this sort of 'shallow' coverage as a means to elevate themselves in public consciousness, knowing that whatever they say will be published or broadcast without too many serious questions being asked of their credentials and fitness to hold public office.
It goes without saying that the election period is an intense one and that the media can only do so much with the limited resources at their disposal.
However, too much of the current coverage of the Namibian election campaigns revolves around politicians making speeches at rallies and party functions, while very little reportage is actually done on the pressing social issues – poverty, unemployment, HIV/AIDS, etc. – and the promises made to alleviate them over the years by the same politicians.
Typical media coverage consists of politicians speaking, while the voices of civil society and the public remain largely unheard.
"Of course the press is biased. The gathering, editing and publishing of news involves decisions by people who inevitably bring their own background, values and prejudices to bear on deciding what to select, emphasize and colour as news. Bias is inevitable; it is lack of balance in the representation of a range of views that is criticised. Lack of balance may characterise not only the way politics is presented in reports, but more generally, the way women, unions, homosexuals and minorities are reported." - Anonymous American journalist.
Namibian media are not the only ones guilty of this lack of depth in election reportage.
Following the South African presidential and parliamentary elections in April this year, Media Monitoring Africa (MMA) found that South African media coverage had failed to address and "bungled" coverage of the "supreme" topics – service delivery and poverty.
"If you were to gauge what issues are of concern to South Africans through the coverage of elections, then you could be forgiven for thinking that poverty is no longer an issue for the country, and public service delivery is well on the way to meeting citizens' expectations," the MMA said in one of its numerous election reports.
"If political parties are not addressing these issues in their campaigning activities, and to all indications this is the case, then it primarily falls to media to assist citizens in this way, [which is] reporting and providing analysis on election and political parties in relation to issues that are of critical importance to South Africans and the future of South Africa," the report stated.
"We see similar trends in coverage of other issues, which we have noted is also minimal. Another reason is perhaps that there is too much focus on the campaigning as though these were American-style elections, and focus on politicians going to places to speak. The focus on the event is often detrimental to coverage of issues. I think editors should be asked this question," MMA director William Bird was quoted saying.
The MMA findings on South African election coverage could possibly be made applicable to media coverage of the Namibian election campaigning underway at the moment, but it's probably to early to make a call as there are still a few months left before voting day.
"We do not conspire with outsiders because we are newspaper people - not politicians, megalomaniacs or political dilettantes. We do not slant news to favour any political party because - apart from being a fraud on our readers and bad journalism - to do so is dishonest. Journalism in its purest form is simply telling the truth, so long as it is in the public interest. We do not conspire with outsiders. We do not write for politicians or parties. We write for people." - Anonymous editor.
Elections – No greater test
The challenge of objectivity, impartiality and balance in journalism is faced daily by journalists, but there is no test of professionalism greater than that posed in the heat and pressure of a bitterly-fought political election.
The election is also a test of political commitment to democracy. It is a time the impulse to manipulate media and to control information is strongest among ruling parties and political leaders running for office.
And what about voters? Journalists must also provide access to media so that citizens' voices can be heard above the babble of political debate.
How do journalists cope with these pressures? How can they enforce professional guidelines and rules which will help them to put all sides of an argument? What laws and regulations should restrain political interest groups from exercising undue influence?
In countries where media, press and broadcasting have been traditionally subject to monopoly control and undue political influence, particularly from the state, and sometimes from single-party government, adjusting to multi-party conditions is never easy.
- Aidan White, International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) General Secretary.
Questions reporters should be asking themselves
• Is the electoral commission organising the poll independent of the government and balanced/neutral in its composition?
• Have all parties and candidates seeking to stand been allowed to register. Does the electoral law
discriminate against any individual or group?
• Does the media have unrestricted access to all candidates/parties? Any sign that government is using state-run media to attack opposition candidates or restricting their exposure on radio/TV?
• Are political parties state financed? Is there a limit to business/private donations and must parties declare them?
• Can all political rallies take place without intimidation by ruling authorities or rival groups?

Q: GCP mongodb external ip connection issue I have a spring MVC application and I am connecting it to MongoDB cluster
This is in the application.properties file
mongodb.url=mongodb://userName:Password@xx.xx.x.xx:27017,xx.xx.x.xx:27017,xx.xx.x.xx:27017/?authSource=admin

The cluster is deployed on GCP with one primary and 2 secondary servers.
However, after deployment when I hit the API to get the data I get an  error
{java.net.UnknownHostException: mongodb-3-arbiters-vm-0}}, {address=mongodb-3-servers-vm-1:27017, type=UNKNOWN, state=CONNECTING, exception={com.mongodb.MongoSocketException: mongodb-3-servers-vm-1}, caused by {java.net.UnknownHostException: mongodb-3-servers-vm-1}}
The external IPs are getting mapped to the server name on the GCP dashboard. xx.xx.xx.xx:27017 to mongodb-3-servers-vm-1:27017, hence resulting in unknown host exception. what to do to avoid that ?

A: When connecting to a replica set, the hostnames, IP addresses and port numbers provided in the connection string are the seedlist.
The driver will connect to the hosts in the seedlist in order to get an initial connection.  It uses this connection to perform server discovery.  It queries the server that is connected first for the host names, port numbers, and status of the other members of the replica set.  The server obtains this information from the replica set configuration document.
This means that the hostnames and port number you used when running rs.initiate or rs.add must be resolvable by both the replica set members and each client host that will be connecting.
There is a feature that supports passing remote clients a different host name, similar to split-horizon DNS, but outside of the git repository, I don't see any mention of it.


Paddlecraft News How to choose a kayak – what's right for you?
How to choose a kayak – what's right for you?
How to choose a kayak is probably one of the most frequent questions asked at Paddlecraft. The answer is always different, but the kayak selection process always starts at the same place – with you!
Sit on top or Sit in Kayak?
Sit on Top Kayaks are very stable, even allowing paddlers to jump on and off without capsizing or even being able to sit on the side of them with your feet dangling in the water. The kayak hull features a wide flat bottom with ridges that break the water tension promoting a more stable ride. The sit on top kayak also has water holes, allowing the water to flow in and drain out again, making them suitable for the surf and still water. These kayaks are great for kids and also serve as a dive platform for people interested in snorkeling or scuba diving. Fisherman are also big fans of the sit on top kayaks because it allows for a wide range of movement, easily accommodate storage and can be paddled many different places.
Sit In Kayaks offer a different paddling experience and suits a paddler with a bit more experience, flexibility and fitness. The sit in kayaks feature a cockpit that requires some flexibility in the entry of the kayak as well as some covered storage within the kayak hull. This type of kayak generally provides better seat support, is overall a dryer paddle without water holes and the smooth bottomed hull provides more speed but less stability. Sit in Kayaks vary greatly in length and storage capacity and can be fitted with or without a rudder. Recreational kayaks range from about 3m to 4 meters length and are suited for day trips and still water areas. Touring and sea kayaks boast greater lengths and storage capacity and feature hull designs and other accessories that support ocean going adventures and several day camping trips.
Single or Double, Sit in or Sit On Kayaks – these basic decisions are the first steps in choosing the right kayak for you. Of course, many other factors, like price, manufacturer, transport and weight of the kayak and material of the kayak, will provide further information to finalise your selection and is certainly deserving of much consideration. But one of the best ways to choose your kayak is to have a paddle in various models, after all people come in as many shapes and sizes as there are kayaks! Most kayak shops will have both sit on and sit in models, and at Paddlecraft, we have many demo models to paddle when you are ready to start trying some models out. Choosing the right kayak can be a rewarding experience with the right advice and match of craft to paddler. So, do some research, get out there on the water and start paddling!

Tension headaches and migraines are often accompanied by significant pain and sometimes even nausea. Mechanical dysfunction of the cervical vertebrae can increase muscle tension and irritate delicate nerves that control blood flow to the head.

At Lawson Chiropractic in Asheville we offer a variety of chiropractic methods to reduce chronic back pain due to an injury or spinal condition. Our treatment methods include the Thompson, Gonstead and Activator techniques. During the Thompson technique, we apply a gentle thrust to specific parts of your spine to correct vertebral subluxations and joint abnormalities. The Gonstead technique entails using a radiograph to diagnose abnormalities and to determine the level of treatment. Precise thrusts are used to correct the spinal problem. The goal is to align the pelvis and vertebrae to reduce inflammation and pain in the back. The Activator technique entails the use of a handheld activator device that creates impulses along specific points to eliminate back pain.
We also offer physiotherapy for the treatment of pain and function addition to spinal adjustments. Physiotherapy services muscle stimulation, ultrasound to enhance circulation, intersegmental traction, ice therapy to reduce swelling and heat therapy to boost healing. These adjunct services are ideal for reducing both back and neck pain, improving mobility and increasing range of motion.

The humor is typically sitcom-ish, tending more toward sophomoric gags than genuinely funny material.
There are no real characters in Mary Magdalene – only icons. Actress Rooney Mara does what she can with the role but she isn't helped by a one-dimensional script whose sole purpose seems to be to turn Mary into a first century feminist crusader.
The movie is a pointless retread with nothing to recommend it beyond McShane's commanding presence.
The synergy between the root cause of the peoples' unrest and some of what we see today will not be lost on many viewers; it gives Peterloo a sense of immediacy that some history-based films don't have. I learned things while sitting in the audience and that's a claim I rarely make about any motion picture circa 2019.
This is what serious horror is like and it's not for everyone.
My sense is that, while The Best of Enemies may be met by stinging criticism from the far left and far right (for different reasons), those with centrist leanings will appreciate it for what it is (as opposed to for what it isn't).
If ever there was a production that embodies all the negative Masterpiece Theater qualities, this is it.
Although nowhere near as lush, artistic, and downright entertaining as the Warren Beatty/Faye Dunaway interpretation, The Highwaymen hews closer to the historical facts (with the climactic ambush being filmed on-location where it happened).
Although it's being marketed as a love story, The Aftermath is more about grief and recovery than romance. In fact, the film's illicit relationship is a cold, passionless affair that generates as much heat as a dying ember in a snowstorm.
An unconventional tale of redemption that earns its upbeat ending by not falling prey to every cliché of the genre or giving in to the temptation to become too maudlin or sentimental.
It's made with families in mind – the material will resonate with children and parents (thankfully) will be sufficiently engaged not to wish to be elsewhere. Unaccompanied adults, however, may not be quite as enchanted.
There's something enormously refreshing about the openness and honesty found in Keith Behrman's coming-of-age film, Giant Little Ones.
If there's one thing that saves Us, it's that, even as the movie descends into a narrative morass from which it never escapes, there are many individual scenes that, taken in isolation, pack a punch. The problem is that, once assembled into the larger whole, it doesn't all work.
The Hummingbird Project is too slow and confused to work as a thriller, a drama, or something in between.
An unconventional heist film in which a majority of the action occurs after the loot has been liberated, Triple Frontier features impeccable photography, strong acting, and well-staged action scenes that ooze tension.
Captive State is a messy, incomplete affair. Attempts to assemble it into a workable package in the editing room didn't work, so we're left with a weird cross between "District 9" and "The Battle of Algiers" that doesn't do either of those apparent inspirations justice.
Five Feet Apart's final half-hour is disappointing and frustrating – and it has nothing to do with the eventual fates of the characters or their romance. What's bothersome is that, after spending nearly 90 minutes of meticulously developing a sensitive, honest relationship between two ships passing in the night, the movie takes a turn into the ridiculous.
Older viewers are more likely to appreciate the film's intentions than fully embrace the story and its characters. Kids, on the other hand, will probably enjoy the frenetic action sequences; plucky heroine; cute, talking animals; and colorful visual representations.
By incorporating a strong Jamaican flavor and infusing the mix with reggae and dance, Elba provides something more interesting than the standard tale of gang warfare and drug deals that forms Yardie's skeleton. However, although these unique elements form an effective distraction, their ability to captivate wears thin, exposing the threadbare, overfamiliar story that struggles mightily to keep viewers engaged.
An intriguing blend of globetrotting neo-noir and road trip plot elements, The Wedding Guest often seems on the cusp of greatness without ever getting there. The film classifies more as a disappointment than a success because, despite its little triumphs, it fritters away too many opportunities and suffers through a turgid middle act.
Captain Marvel, coming only a year after the fantastic "Black Panther," is a disappointment. The acting and special effects are solid but the writing, by co-directors Anna Boden & Ryan Fleck (elevated from the indie productions where they made their mark) with an assist from Geneva Robertson-Dworet, is lazy.
We don't see many movies like Gloria Bell these days. Simple, adult character studies with major stars have become a rarity in today's movie climate. Gloria Bell is sedate in its approach – it tells a story but the narrative is devoid of sensationalistic happenings and manipulative melodrama.
Saint Judy has a serious agenda and, in service of that, it eschews action scenes, thriller elements, and conventional contrivances. It tells a worthwhile story and provides a primer on aspects of immigration law without becoming didactic.
For the movie's first half, director Neil Jordan does a reasonably good job of it. Then, unfortunately, he falls victim to the most dreaded of horror movie clichés: supposedly smart characters doing irredeemably dumb things.
Fighting with My Family is as likable as it is generic. Pugh's performance is the best thing about the movie but the story, despite Merchant's comedic flourishes, feels stale at times.
Although the How to Train Your Dragon series hasn't been reduced to the harebrained level of a big-screen children's cartoon, the latest chapter is the least sophisticated of the movies, emphasizing slapstick humor, one-dimensional characterization, and obvious messages.
Happy Death Day 2U is a passable way to throw away 100 minutes if you're willing to turn off your brain and pretend it's making sense.
Rodriquez nails the pacing – it's slow enough to allow for character development (at least where Alita is concerned) but ramps up during the well-choreographed battle and chase sequences. Everything moves along fine…at least until the final few minutes when it becomes apparent that we're about to be victimized by a story that requires multiple installments to play out.
Cold Pursuit has a strong current of dark humor winding through the proceedings. With a nod or two to Quentin Tarantino, he has fashioned a bizarrely entertaining ode to violence, gangsters, and heavy snowfall in the Rockies.

Utah Police/Courts
Missing St. George woman was killed, investigators say
By Amy Donaldson
SHARE Missing St. George woman was killed, investigators say
Stevie Shay Wilkerson, 26, of St. George, was last seen on Aug. 9, 2020. Iron County sheriff's detectives say she was killed and are investigating her death as a homicide.
CEDAR CITY — The case of a missing St. George woman who was found dead last weekend in a remote area of southern Utah is now being investigated as a homicide.
On Aug. 23, police received a call that a body had been located in western Iron County. Investigators determined the woman's body "had been in the area for some time," the Iron County Sheriff's Office said in a statement.
After being transported to the Utah State Medical Examiner's Office, the woman was identified as Stevie Shay Wilkerson, 26. She had been missing from St. George since Aug. 9.
Wilkerson had last been seen leaving the Claridge Inn, 1187 S. Bluff, according to St. George police.
Her cousin, Angie Golish, said she was an animal lover that everyone described as having "a big heart, not a mean bone in her body. She was just sweet and a little shy."
Golish said the tragic nature of Wilkerson's death is especially painful for her entire family.
"My aunt said it feels extra tragic that she would die this way because she was truly a person who wouldn't hurt anyone or anything," Golish said. "She was so kindhearted and loved all animals, big and small. She dreamed of being a veterinarian growing up."
In her last Facebook post on June 26th, Wilkerson asked for help finding an apartment to rent with her boyfriend and dog, Niko.
Wilkerson's cause of death has not been released, but it is being investigated by Iron County sheriff's detectives as a homicide.
"Our thoughts are with the Wilkerson family at this time," the statement said.
An Aug. 10 Facebook post from Vawna Wilkerson said she believed her daughter had been abducted and taken hostage by a man and woman "she accidentally crossed paths with" at a St. George motel.
"Please help me find my beautiful baby girl. They are armed and have threatened to kill her, the post says.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the sheriff's office at 435-867-7500.

Q: Automatically assigning value to transient attribute I am using @Entity from  javax.persistence.Entity to create my entities and in this particular case I had to create a transient attribute (private Boolean assigned;) and I am using PagingAndSortingRepository from org.springframework.data.repository to create interfaces to manage my database entities.
I need to assign this value (Boolean assigned) when a List (OneToMany) attribute is empty, so I am doing it programatically using an if clause, the problem is I have to write that if clause everywhere and I would like to know if it is possible to auto-assign that variable somehow.
Thanks in advance.

A: If you need to set the value of this flag before being persisted in the database, I would recommend use entity listener @PrePersist, basicallu give you the possibility to execute certain logic before you persist the object, in the method you could check if the Array is empty and set the value to false.
There are other events such as:

@PostLoad  Executed after an entity has been loaded into the current
  persistence context or an entity has been refreshed.

@PostLoad
public void setAssigned() {
   //Your logic for set to true or false the transient variable.
}

I think this is one option to do the logic in only one place at be managed by the provider. Read more about it here

Border Patrol Nabs 3 Criminal Illegals Trying To Enter US
David Krayden Ottawa Bureau Chief
March 20, 2019 10:00 AM ET
U.S. Border Patrol agents nabbed three criminal illegal aliens Tuesday — two trying to enter the United States through Arizona and a third at a California crossing.
Avilia Rosales, one of the two illegal border crossers caught in Arizona, has a criminal record for child molestation. The other, Arturo Benjamin Avila Torres, has been convicted for assault with a firearm and for "lascivious acts with a minor under 14," according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB) as reported by the Washington Examiner.

Both men will be prosecuted for illegal immigration, according to the CPB. Border patrol agents are increasingly using biometric assessments of suspects to "ensure illegal aliens with criminal histories are positively identified." (RELATED: Illegal Arrested In Murder Case Had Long Criminal Record But Was Not Deported)
The third criminal illegal, Alberto Martinez Flores, was stopped at the Calexico, California, border crossing. According to a CBP news release, Flores has a long criminal record dating back a decade. He was convicted of assault, strangulation and unlawful imprisonment and sent to jail. In 2017, Flores was again convicted for vehicular assault and sent to prison for 13 months. Flores has been deported at least once.
Flores said he intended to travel to Los Angeles and live there if he had successfully eluded capture, according to the CBP.
"Our agents were able to arrest Martinez without incident," said Assistant Chief Patrol Agent David Kim. "This man's criminal history clearly shows how dangerous he is and now he's off the streets thanks to our agents' hard work and diligence."

The arrests underline the increasing activity at the U.S.-Mexico border and why the Trump administration maintains that the current environment can be characterized as a crisis. Border Patrol Chief Carla Provost agrees with this assessment. President Donald Trump remains committed to building a wall to contain the illegal entry of illegals.

Generatie X (Engels: Generation X of Gen X) is de generatie die is geboren ná de babyboomgeneratie en vóór Generatie Y (de Millennials). Deze groep betreft ruwweg de mensen die zijn geboren in de jaren 1960 - 1980.

De generatie die werd geboren in de overgangsperiode tussen Generatie X en Generatie Y – de jaren rond 1980 – worden Xennials genoemd, een portmanteau van Generation X and Millennials. Omdat generaties geleidelijk verschuiven en elkaar overlappen, zijn er geen exacte grenzen voor deze periodes te geven. Afhankelijk van het vakgebied en de culturele geschiedenis van het land worden ook andere indelingen gehanteerd.

In de demografie worden voor Generatie X de geboortejaren 1955-1970 aangehouden. Tussen de generaties X en Y (1970-1980) zit dan een tussengeneratie die de pragmatische generatie wordt genoemd. Het latere deel hiervan valt dus ook onder de Xennials. Het CBS hanteert gemakshalve periodes van 5 jaar (geboortecohorten), die door anderen worden samengevoegd tot generaties met een passende naam.

Generatie X is opgegroeid in de overgangsperiode tussen het analoge en het digitale tijdperk. Deze generatie leefde in de tijd van automatisering en digitalisering, waarin er al wel computers bestonden maar nog geen internet en sociale media. Er werd nog getelefoneerd met analoge telefoons, terwijl de smartphone nog moest worden uitgevonden.

Andere benamingen
Generatie X wordt in België en Nederland ook wel de Generatie Nix of de Verloren Generatie genoemd, aangezien de jongeren de periode van economische crisis na de tweede oliecrisis meemaakten: ze waren pas afgestudeerd (in veel gevallen met een universiteitsdiploma) en konden moeilijk gepast werk vinden, omdat de bedrijven aanwervingen beperkten en gingen snoeien door middel van een zuiniger loonbeleid. Universitair geschoolden hadden door dit gewijzigd bedrijfsbeleid de naam te duur te zijn in vergelijking met afgestudeerden op hbo- of graduaatsniveau, wat leidde tot grote jongerenwerkloosheid en nepstatuten.

Een andere benaming is de MTV-generatie.
MTV, een televisiezender met een toen nieuw concept, gebaseerd op het uitzenden van videoclips, werd geïntroduceerd in de periode die samenviel met de tienerjaren van een groot deel van Generatie X. In die periode kwamen nieuwe muziekstromen als grunge en hip-hop op, waarmee werd afgezet tegen de vorige babyboomgeneratie.

In Duitsland noemde Florian Illies de generatie die rond 1970 geboren werd de "Generation Golf" ("generatie Golf"). Susanne Gaschke noemt de generatie die tussen 1965 en 1985 geboren werd de "Generation Zuviel" ("generatie te veel"), waarmee een generatie bedoeld wordt die van alles te veel heeft: te veel informatie, te veel keuzes, te veel concurrentie, enzovoort.

People who have been infected by influenza are generally contagious for six to 24 hours before symptoms appear, meaning that staffers could be treating patients for up to a full day before they know they may be spreading the virus.
"Someone could become infected and transmit infection to one of the patients," said Dr. Michael Ison, infectious-diseases specialist at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
Nearly half of all cases of influenza reported in Chicago this season involved citizens 65 or older, according to a report released by the Chicago Department of Public Health. In addition to a sustained prevalence of influenza A cases, the total number of reported influenza B cases increased by over 50 percent within one week, according to public health influenza updates.
Staffers from a number of skilled-nursing facilities spoke this week about their employee influenza-vaccination practices.
"I didn't get the flu shot, and I didn't get sick," said Renee Hernandez, the director of nursing at Bethesda Rehab & Senior Care in Montclare. She said that when patients at her facility catch influenza, the staff try to work on single floors to avoid transmitting the virus between groups of residents.
At Wesley Place, a rehabilitation center in Andersonville, most staff members have gotten the vaccine, but it is not mandatory, according to director of nursing Rose Policarpio.
Park View Rehab Center in Edgewater does not have a staff vaccination requirement, according to administrator David Zaruba. He said that while they strongly encourage staff to get vaccinated, they are not able to require it.
"I know there's a push for that, among a number of different facilities," he said.
Employees of New Age Elder Care travel between clients and offer home healthcare. Staff members have been sicker than in prior years, said director of nursing Yelena Artichtchev. She said that they are not required to get vaccinated.
"We do ask them, but we do not make it mandatory," she said.
Influenza-linked ICU hospitalizations so far this season have surpassed total hospitalizations of each year since the 2010-2011 season, according to the public health influenza update report.
The Chicago Department of Public Health could not be reached for comment.

Q: returnUrl not working in DocuSign I am using DocuSign for my form posting. I want the docusign to redirect to my own thankyoupage.htm after the document has been signed by the user.
I used the syntax
https://test.docusign.net/SigningPage.aspx?ID=12313331&returnUrl= 'https://thankyoupage.htm'
But it is not working.
What is the current syntax for redirecting using returnUrl?

A: The return URL can be set via your account configuration or in the brand being using by the envelope (via Landing Pages -> Sign Complete).
Setting the returnUrl is done for captive signing use cases where you make a POST request for a signing view URL. I'm not sure if this is what you are trying to do here. If setting the URL via account config does not help, then you'll need to provide more detail about what you are trying to achieve.
