I finally have my computer back! This makes it much easier to upload photos, which means I'll finally get around to posting the good recipes from the past couple weeks of Whole30 eating.
Squash Apple Coconut Milk Breakfast Porridge - I really liked this, though I'm not sure Raj was as big a fan. It's basically just roasted squash (I just cut my squash in half, roasted it, then scooped it out of the peel), applesauce (it calls for a grated apple, but apparently grating an apple when there's perfectly good applesauce in my fridge is where I draw the "ain't nobody got time for that" line - I just dumped it straight into the blender without measuring, so maybe a cup...and a half?), coconut milk, and cinnamon. I just blended everything together and skipped the stove step. I added a tablespoon of chia seeds to each serving before refrigerating, then stirred in raisins and sliced almonds in the morning and ate it cold.
I swear, most of my pancakes did turn out looking like pancakes. I just chose to photograph the first day when I ate all the broken pieces. Still delicious.
Egg and Pumpkin Pancakes - I'm not going to link to the recipe for this one because while the idea was helpful, the proportions seemed WAY off to me. I suggest putting your whole can of pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling, unless that's what you want for breakfast, in which case, you do you) into a mixing bowl and add eggs until it gets to a decent pancake consistency. Probably it will be around 8-10 eggs, depending on their size. Then dump in a whole lot of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice. You have to cook these over low-medium heat, waiting to flip until pretty much the entire pancake has changed color. I suggest respraying your pan with cooking spray often. I enjoyed mine reheated with applesauce on top. Raj ate his plain. Maple syrup would also be quite delicious, I'm sure.
Brussels Sprouts and Bacon Hash - First of all, YUM. Secondly, this says it serves three, so in order to have four servings I used 16 ounces of brussels sprouts instead of 12. And we got two servings out of it (granted, that was minus the eggs). So while I will make it again, I will at least double it.
Uh, check out the dinner recipes below, picture them reheated, and there you have our lunches.
Gryo Meat with Chopped Greek Salad and fake tzatziki - We ate the Greek salad a couple of times this month and I cannot believe I am even about to type these words, but I didn't really miss the feta that's normally in it. I use capers in place of olives (probably more capers than the recipe calls for olives) so we still get the salty hit from them. I cooked the gyro meat on the stove instead of grilling it. Again, my fake tzatziki was homemade mayo with chopped cucumber and dill, plus lime juice and salt.
One Pot Mexican Chicken Stir Fry - I do love a one-pot meal and I thought the chicken in this was really good. The broccoli though didn't make much sense to either of us in it, so I'd sub that for something else next time. I think even cauliflower would work better with the flavors.
Pan-Fried Cod with Mustard Caper Sauce - You had me at "mustard caper sauce". This sauce was really good, as was the salad that goes with it. Our lettuce selection is quite limited, so I went with iceberg for this and I thought it was good. We pretty much always eat kale, spinach, or romaine, so it was kind of a nice change.
Lime Butter Salmon with Cilantro Lime Cauliflower "Rice" - I first made this way back when I was learning to cook and I remember having the salmon done and getting very flustered over the ricing of the cauliflower. This time, Raj did the cauliflower by putting it in the food processor. Done and done. We couldn't have butter, so I subbed coconut oil and I think it was better. The coconut flavor goes so well with the lime and cilantro. You just want to make sure you store leftovers in a container you can reheat them in because the coconut oil will solidify in the fridge.
Pork Chops with Kale - I've made this one several times over the past year or two. I'm not sure it's Raj's favorite, but I love it, partly because it's the easiest thing ever to make. I don't even precook the kale - just throw it in the pot before covering it and it steams while the pork chops finish cooking. You really can't beat it for a healthy dinner with very little effort.
I think that's all the Whole30 recipes I have that are fit to share. So far, anyway. I just pinned a whole lot of recipes from Nom Nom Paleo so it seems likely that there will be more to come. Just not too soon. Raj is away for a week...or two...or some indeterminate amount of time for work, so there won't be a whole lot of cooking going on around here until he gets back. Go go salad recipes!
Whole30: Done, but actually not quite finished.
I apologize for the delay in posting. My computer is in the shop and taking three times as long as predicted, so I'm coming to you from Raj's old laptop.
Internet, we finished the Whole30! Without cheating!
Now we're in the reintroduction phase, so it's still not anything goes around here for another week, but I think I can safely give you our impressions of the first 30 days at least.
We both lost about eight pounds. And that's even though we ate probably a lot more bacon and white potatoes than the program creators likely intended. Raj has clearly lost more than eight pounds of fat while at the same time putting on muscle.
I am wearing my skinny jeans! Ok, they're not actual skinny jeans, just the jeans that used to be my everyday jeans until maybe a year ago or so when what had been my fat jeans became my everyday jeans. Which is a long way of saying that I'm down a pants size and suddenly have new clothes available to me that I don't have to pay for because I already bought them. Yes, this is entirely related to the above Pro of the Whole30, but it felt like it deserved its own paragraph.
We were never hungry. I mean yes, we got appropriately hungry at meal times, but we were getting plenty to eat all month and not feeling deprived of food, while still losing weight.
I really didn't miss some of the foods we cut out, which will make it easy to just continue not cooking them. In particular, while we don't intend to adopt a grain-free lifestyle, I think we'll have a lot more grain-free dinners than we used to. Not everything needs a side of rice, apparently.
Our cravings for sweets are dramatically reduced. Not that I'd turn down a bite of chocolate. I just don't NEED it.
It gave us the push we needed to get started shopping at the farmers markets here, something we'd been really meaning to do regularly, but just hadn't done.
I think Raj would say that the different kind of breakfast we've been having is a Pro. Before, we mostly had either overnight oats, baked oats, or Kashi cereal. He's really liked having either sausage or fish and vegetables for breakfast. I'm less sold, mostly because having to also cook something for breakfast doubles the cooking load, but can admit that I haven't been hungry mid-morning like I typically was before.
This has been sort of a project for the two of us to take on together, which is fun. We're a good team.
While it may seem sort of crazy and extreme, it's the strictness that makes it work. Vague ideas like trying to eat more vegetables or cut back on sugar are a lot more challenging than a strict set of guidelines, the same way my intention to run more ends in a lot less running than I do when I have a set training plan.
It really does take a lot of planning and a lot of cooking. If we both had demanding jobs, I'm not sure we would have succeeded.
It's expensive. We're eating a lot more meat than usual and of course fresh produce isn't cheap. This is somewhat balanced though by saving money on eating out.
Eating out is not easy and not really that fun. We normally go out to eat about once a week, but ended up mostly avoiding it for the past month because we couldn't order anything we'd actually want and even what we didn't really want was probably cooked in butter anyway.
A lot of people report having tons and tons of energy starting around the middle to last third of the Whole30. Raj did feel like he had more energy, but can't say for sure what the cause was since around the time we started, he also got back to being really good about going to Crossfit five days a week. So it could have been the food or the exercise or a combination. I pretty much spent the entire last week either napping or daydreaming about taking a nap, but I can say for sure that the blame for my lethargy lies with my old nemesis, premenstrual syndrome. So the experiment was compromised. Too many variables.
Other people report that their skin clears up. And I can tell you that my skin did seem clearer. But I can't tell you whether that's due to the Whole30 or the new skin regimen I started a couple of weeks before it, wherein I just use toner in the morning instead of washing my face. A lady on San Antonio local TV told me that washing my face twice a day was promoting oil production so I should do toner in the morning and wash at night. I'm giving it a whirl.
Whole30 did not cure my migraines, but I didn't really expect it to since they, like the teenagers I spend my days with, are primarily driven by hormones.
The idea is to introduce each group back in by itself to see how it affects you. You do one day of that food group followed by two days back on Whole30 guidelines to see if you notice any slightly longer-term effects. Some people get digestive issues, joint pain, sinus congestion, headaches, or skin breakouts from reintroducing foods they had a sensitivity to.
We decided to start with dairy. We already know Raj is lactose intolerant, so we went with low-lactose dairy items, Greek yogurt for breakfast, frozen yogurt at lunch, and some aged cheddar grated on our dinner. We felt fine, except Raj noticed a pronounced sugar crash in the afternoon after the frozen yogurt, which is unsurprising since we hadn't had any sugar outside of fruit in a month.
We may have referred to Day 31 as Chocolate Bunny Day. It was eagerly anticipated. Here's the truly crazy part: the lemon Greek yogurt I had for breakfast tasted like absolutely the best thing I'd ever eaten. I couldn't get over how amazing it was. Then I peeled my bunny and enjoyed its head with my coffee. And it was...good. A lot more anticlimactic than anticipated. Not like I didn't eat the rest of my bunny after dinner or anything. Just, I would have expected the yogurt and chocolate experiences to be reversed.
After two days back on Whole30, we reintroduced legumes with peanut butter on apples at breakfast, hummus on carrots and celery for lunch, and soy sauce on our sashimi for dinner. (Turns out soy sauce also has gluten. Whoops.) We felt fine. Yesterday was non-gluten grain day. I made some breakfast quinoa that was kind of awful (coconut milk + banana = WAY too sweet), we had corn with lunch, and basmati rice with our curry for dinner. So far, so good.
All that's left is gluten grains (I'm pretty sure we'll be having banh mi on gluten day) and alcohol. Since the next reintro day is Friday, we're going with booze first. Not for breakfast or lunch this time (sadly) but we did plan our dinner around our wine.
I think we'll stick with eating like this for the most part. I'm sure some cheese will sneak back in and there will be a couple of glasses of wine per week. We will also likely resume eating out about once a week and won't be taking extraordinary measures to make those meals compliant. I'm not sure where we'll end up on breakfast food. It might be that knowing that if we do run out, we can have oatmeal for a day or two until I can get to the store and cook more breakfast food will be enough to keep me at least attempting to make most of our breakfasts. It's been the last minute "There's nothing for breakfast tomorrow!" panic that's been the most annoying part.
All in all, I think it was well worth it. I'll be back with second half recipes once I get my computer back. After that, maybe I'll even talk about something aside from Whole30. Who knows?
I mentioned we're doing the Whole30. Raj has been talking for a while now about wanting to try going Paleo. I was always very much opposed to this, for a few reasons. For one it made no sense to me. Our current food, even whole foods like fruits and vegetables, bear very little resemblance to what a person of the actual paleolithic period would have eaten. And even if it did, what makes us think we should eat like people who had, to say the least, vastly different lifestyles from our own? And our bodies have evolved to be able to tolerate different foods. Plus I see all the Paleo muffins/cookies/scones/cakes on Pinterest and think that people are putting a lot of time, effort, and money into figuring out how to eat like they used to eat but with different ingredients. Also, I was in grad school and lacked the necessary free time and mental energy to figure out a whole new way of meal planning, shopping and cooking.
So I was not on board. But Raj remained interested, especially when a friend told him how much weight she'd lost in just one month on Paleo. Then I finished grad school and had lots of free time. And was also quite interested in losing weight. But I was still very much not ready to give up cheese for all time. Nope. No way. I'd heard about this Whole30 thing which seemed similar to Paleo, but with the added benefit of only lasting 30 days. Maybe I could give up cheese for 30 days. Maybe.
Then afterward, you slowly start reintroducing those foods you've missed (because if you didn't miss it and it's not that good for you, just don't reintroduce it) one group at a time and see how you feel. For instance, on Day 1 after our 30 days, we'll try having peanut butter for lunch and soy sauce at dinner, then see how the legumes affect us. A couple of days later, we'll have a couple of servings of whole grains and see what happens there. And so on. So the 30 days is a teensy bit misleading because it takes an additional almost two weeks to slowly reintroduce one thing at a time while staying mostly on the program.
A big difference between Paleo and Whole30 is that Whole30 is concerned with the mental effects of food as well. All of those cheatery Paleo sweets mentioned above are verboten under Whole30 since a big part of the idea is to reprogram yourself to not need them. I am definitely programmed to want sweets after every meal, something I'm hoping to kick this month. Our nightly routine of having a glass of milk and some dark chocolate chips after dinner has been difficult to give up, not only because we (very much) miss the chocolate but also because it's become a sort of ritual and a reward for doing the dishes and cleaning up the kitchen. We have no intentions of giving up sweets forever, but it would be nice to be able to enjoy them without feeling the NEED for them at least twice a day.
Similarly, snacking is mostly forbidden (with exceptions for people who really need the extra calories, like very active people and nursing mothers) because the meals are designed to be filling enough and therefore snacking between would be about emotional hunger (for me, generally boredom) rather than actual physical hunger. The idea is to learn the difference and be able to make a long-term change that outlasts the 30 days.
So, what CAN we eat? Meals are supposed to be comprised of: one to two palm-sized servings of protein (meat, fish, eggs), one to two thumb-sized servings of healthy fat (olives/olive oil, coconut/coconut milk/coconut oil, avocado, nuts, clarified butter/ghee), and all the rest vegetables, with some fruit included in the day.
This is your kitchen counter on Whole30.
The sugar cravings have been harder for Raj than for me, but I will admit to casting longing gazes at the wine while cooking. And there is A LOT of cooking. We usually eat leftovers for lunch, so there's no adjustment there, except to making absolutely sure there always are plenty of leftovers. Because while we could normally pick up a sandwich or something if we didn't have food for lunch, that's not an option right now. Eating out is so challenging that we're pretty much avoiding it this month, meaning there has to be home cooked food every night. And since a lot of processed food contains forbidden ingredients (soy and sugar alone rule out a whole lot of what you'd buy) we're making our own condiments and ingredients like mayo, salad dressing, and chicken stock.
What we've done the past two weeks is go to the big farmers' market and buy eggs and all the produce that looks good to us, some of it with ideas in mind and some of it not, then come home and plan around what we have. I make a list of the vegetables and herbs we bought and then we check them off as we start to choose recipes. Then we make a list for the regular grocery store of what else we'll need (this ends up being mostly meat) and make a second trip.
I make something for breakfast that can be reheated and has enough servings for a few days because nobody around here is getting up early to cook. Also, Raj mostly takes his breakfast to go, to be eaten between Crossfit and work. Dinner leftovers get packed up into containers to be taken for lunch.
Last week, I spent kind of a ridiculous amount of time in the kitchen, partly because I didn't cook big enough dinner portions to last us for lunches and then had to cook food specifically for lunch. This week Raj has taken on a lot of the cooking and we also seem to have better figured out how much we need to make.
As far as what we've been eating, I haven't felt deprived. We've eaten a lot of good, flavorful food and I can't say I've missed the rice/pasta/polenta/bread that is a part of many, if not most, of our dinners. (Though Raj is making curry this week and I expect we'll feel the absence of rice and/or naan.) I do miss oatmeal for breakfast, but it's true that having protein and veggies instead keeps me full longer.
A surprisingly challenging part of the Whole30 is the prohibition against getting on the scale during the program. Because I am curious! But the whole thing is supposed to be about learning to eat in a way that's healthier for the body and mind, not a weight loss program, though weight loss is often an added bonus. I've also had to go off My Fitness Pal because we are supposed to be using the meal guidelines and our own hunger and fullness to decide what and how much we eat, not a calorie count. It feels like I'm eating A LOT, but I have to remember that most of it is vegetables, which shouldn't be packing on the pounds. So I'll give the scale a rest for now.
I intended this post to be a quick explanation of the program and recap of how it's going, with the bulk of it being devoted to specific meals and recipes. Many, many paragraphs later, I realize that should be a separate post. So stay tuned for meal specifics, including some recipes you'll want even if you have no interest in crazy food experiments. Because they're just good food.


This late season dessert variety is a Cox/Worcester cross. The fruits are brightly flushed and striped orange-red over a greenish background and have an extremely rich, aromatic flavour. Later in its season the flavour softens becoming more like its Cox parent. The fruits are ready for picking in October and will store at least until February. Suitable pollinators include: Winter Gem, Redsleeves, Red Ellison, Grenadier, James Grieve etc.

Q: including files without having to specify $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] Before the PHP Version update I used to be able to include files as following without specifying the document root:
<?php include '/absolute/path/to/files/file1.php'; ?>

However I now have to include the same file as following:
<?php include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/absolute/path/to/files/file1.php'; ?>

What php.ini setting could have overridden the former behaviour?

A: You need the php.ini directive include_path
See: http://us.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.include-path

A: Including an absolute path should be working the same way straight through PHP 5.2.9 (haven't tried 5.3, but this shouldn't change). Since you're specifying an absolute path, the include_path directive has no bearing.
Can you provide some more information? What PHP version, platform, and the error you get back from include would be a great start.

Linux: RHEL 5 PHP: Version PHP 5.2.9 Error Messages I get are: PHP Warning: require(/conf/common.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN/httpdocs/tell-a-friend-fns.php on line 63 PHP Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '/conf/common.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear:/usr/lib/php:/tmp') in /var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN/httpdocs/tell-a-friend-fns.php on line 63

Okay, it looks like your application is living in /var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN, and you're looking for /conf/common.php, right? I don't know if your file is actually in /conf/ or if it's in /var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN/conf/ (I assume the latter, with the information given). If it's in /conf/, then make sure that your Web server user can read that directory. If not, change your include to /var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN/httpdocs/conf/common.php.
Better yet, you might be able to do include '../conf/common.php, depending on where common.php lives in relation to your main script for the requested page.
Remember that any path given with a leading "/" is absolute in relation to the file system, not the Web server document root. Any path given without a "/" is assumed to be a relative path, relative to your executing script (not the current file). My guess is that prepending $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] to your path is changing the absolute path to a relative path. I have no idea why an absolute path would act as a relative path pre-upgrade, unless you were operating in a jailed environment (common with virtual hosts) which got removed during the upgrade.

A: I always use something like:
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/../../subdir/somefile.php' );

It gives you a relative path from the current file, but resolves to an absolute path (by using dirname on the current file).

Irene Nichola: A Post-Modern Strip Tease
The Imperial Hotel
reviewed 7th September
Sydney Fringe
Well. I am not sure what I was expecting but it was definitely not what I got.
A Post-Modern Striptease is Irene's first full-length solo show, built from a number of smaller development seasons. It is an experimental cabaret – not stripping but post-modern stripping - we are told in no uncertain terms. Nichola combines vignettes of comedy, song and dance in which she explicitly comments on herself as a performer, the choices she makes, and the reactions she elicits from her audience.
Nichola's stage presence is sweet, and her comedic personality could be endearing. She seems nervous, and perhaps needs to log more hours on the stage before she will be fully confident in the pacing and delivery of her material. The funniest two moments are when she plays a little trumpet solo through her lips, and when she does bit on Bertolt Brecht that she finds so funny that she starts laughing at herself. In these instants the show feels light-hearted and effortless; however much of the rest is wooden, the dance routines rote-learned, the comic material a little too glib. It isn't until she hops on the keyboard and starts to play and sing that she seems confident enough to relax. Nichola has a strong voice, and her songs have an off-beat Fiona Apple quality which is appealing.
The act follows a simple structure: we get a comedy routine, then a song, and then a strip dance. In the transitions between strips Nichola nips back behind a wooden screen to re-clothe herself, and we listen to instalments of a peculiar radio drama (credited to Sam Wade). In these interludes a little boy called Timmy is pushed 'down the weir' by his father before being rescued by a vigilante wolf. It is completely nuts, and completely unrelated to the rest of what is going on in the show – but kind of incredible for this reason. At any rate, I find this one of the most fascinating aspects of the piece, and am very intrigued as to the creative conversation that led to its inclusion.
In the end neither the weird weir story, nor any of the other diverse threads, come together in a meaningful way. The 'post-modern' conceit of explaining to the crowd exactly what we are seeing and how we are re-acting to it is abandoned for the last fifteen minutes or so, and Nichola accompanies herself on the keyboard singing a variety of unrelated tunes. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that something labelled post-modern fails to deliver on any really satisfying narrative or conclusion, but, I am.
A promising performer, but the show would benefit from more coherent content, and she needs to build up her audience rapport and confidence in order to really fly.

You are here: Home > Buying a Wood > Northern England > Warrenby Wood - SOLD
Warrenby Wood - SOLD, East Yorkshire - Almost 7½ acres, £52,000
Warrenby Wood - SOLD
A secluded, picturesque woodland set on an east facing slope, situated in a pretty dale at the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds.
Located on the southern edge of the Yorkshire Wolds and within Brantingham Dale, Warrenby Wood lies on the west side of the pretty Brantingham Dale valley. A wide variety of open meadows and wooded areas provide a broad range of habitats that support and encourage wildlife into the area.
Within sight of Dale Road that passes along the south eastern boundary, are plenty of self-seeded trees as well as mature deciduous trees. Further into the wood there is a large grass covered meadow with trees bordering it on all sides, a place to spot butterflies as well as many different grassland plants. A foot track passes across the top of the meadow and gives access along the wood past a grove of birch trees that stand tall with white trunks in the winter.
Towards the top of the dale there is a flat area with some hawthorn, sycamore, ash and birch. From this elevated position, there are some good views to the Humber and beyond.
The land is part of the Brantingham Dale Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and Warrenby Wood would make a great conservation project and an ideal location to watch wildlife. A new owner may wish to manage the grassy clearings in line with the recommendations suggested by Natural England in their Views About Management.
Vehicle access to Warrenby Wood is provided by way of a solid woodland track which leads along the top of the dale to a small parking area. The new owner would also be able to access the wood on foot from the bottom of the dale.
If travelling north to the wood, you pass through Brantingham village with the beautifully situated All Saints Church at its northern edge. Partly 13th century but mostly a Victorian restoration, the local squire had it expensively spruced up for a visit by the future Edward VII.

Bold Founder Named to Bumble's 'Most Inspiring New Yorkers' List
by Carrie Sheffield
in Bold TV, Business, Homepage, Life, News, Tech, Voices
Today Bumble, the female-first social connection app with more than 40 million global users, unveiled its list of Most Inspiring New York City Bumblers, and I was excited to be among them and share more about our work at Bold.
A post shared by Carrie Sheffield (@sheffieldcarrie) on Oct 11, 2018 at 7:15pm PDT
Portraits and images of this Bumble list of 112 people will be featured on more than 500 outdoor placements, NY subway station takeovers, storefronts, illuminated double-decker buses, and a half-million custom placements on coffee sleeves, pizza boxes, and New York Post newspaper wraps.
Bumble asked me during my interview "What inspires you to make moves in your life?" and I told them that I'm inspired by people who have bent the arc of history toward love, compassion and unity.
CARRIE: Equality of opportunity is what America is built upon, even if we've never done that perfectly and are always striving to be better. We get there by rejecting bigotry, racism, sexism, and homophobia. We get there by viewing each person as endowed with inherent dignity, capacity and possibility. We get there by respecting the viewpoints of others, even if we disagree with them. #FindThemOnBumble
A post shared by Find Them On Bumble (@findthemonbumble) on Oct 8, 2018 at 7:00pm PDT
The Bumble campaign is a a multi-million dollar effort that's been more than a year in the making, explained more in a blog post, "Bumble Founder Whitney Wolfe Herd: New Yorkers, You Inspire Us." The #FindThemOnBumble docuseries and outdoor/experiential campaign is the result of Bumble spending the past 12 months interviewing my fellow New Yorkers to learn our stories about friendship, business, love and living an empowering life.
The Bumble list has both Republicans and Democrats, including Alyssa Mastromonaco, former White House deputy chief of staff under the Obama administration. Liz Bouk, opera singer, and Julie Rice, founder of SoulCycle, are on the Most Inspiring list, as well as past Bold guests and guest hosts, including these lovely people below:
LIDDY: The most important relationship is with yourself. Focus on the prize and embrace the failures. They're part of your story. #FindThemOnBumble
Bold contributor Elizabeth Huntsman, chatted at Facebook New York headquarters with host Catherine Thompson of Talking Points Memo, JP Brammer of The Guardian, and Aaron Morrison of Mic.com to discuss voting among millennials.
DRE: A few years ago, I learned that girls in low-income communities do not have access to basic essentials like hygiene products. That inspired me to launch @smileonmehq, a community organization that provides feminine hygiene products to girls and also leads workshops on hygiene, self-esteem, puberty/menstruation, and mental health. #FindThemOnBumble
Dre Thomas, who joined Bold Life to tell us about her wonderful organization, Smile On Me, that helps young girls in NYC learn about health and puberty.
LIZ: People's perceptions of you are none of your business. Do your own weird thing. #FindThemOnBumble
Liz Plank guest-hosted Bold TV and discussed her thoughts on Charlottesville and its aftermath.
BLAIR: I've learned to not let self doubt sabotage opportunity. For example, I hear a lot from the people I mentor that they are nervous about applying for a job, so they don't even enter the process. I think that's one of the worst things you can do career wise. Don't stop yourself from having a chance.#FindThemOnBumble #BeTheCeo
Blair Imani, civic action and campaigning lead at DoSomething.org, joined Bold TV to discuss the Iranian protests.
BRODERICK: Never let rejection dictate your future. I was in my own way a lot of the times when I was trying to grow. I blamed my circumstances. I found out how to combat everything I thought was holding me back by growing mentally. Changing my perspective on everything changed me. #FindThemOnBumble
A post shared by Find Them On Bumble (@findthemonbumble) on Oct 9, 2018 at 6:10am PDT
Broderick Hunter joined Bold Life to discuss diversity in the modeling industry.
You can check out the campaign's Instagram account, @FindThemOnBumble, and Bumble.com will give the full interviews with Bumble's Most Inspiring New Yorkers. Check out a video blurb about the campaign below:
What inspires me about this list are the people who are working to make the world a better place. I was excited to be able to share with the Bumble community about our media startup, Bold TV, where we seek to transform our digitally-native generation to build a more perfect union. We are inspired at the possibility of moving our country toward a place of empathy, compassion and shared recognition of universal values. We're glad that Bumble shares that vision, too.

Q: Google AutoML - Possible to authenticate by service account impersonation? TL;DR - Can I authenticate to AutoML API by impersonating a service account (SA) with my application default credentials (ADC) or must I actually use SA authentication?
I would like to be able to authenticate to the AutoML API using ADC when making batch predictions on a deployed model. This is just for development purposes as to not create a new SA for each developer & data scientist. I know AutoML requires a SA for authentication so I would like to use the --impersonate-service-account flag or the auth/impersonate_service_account setting. I have followed instructions from this Medium post but am still getting an error about using end user credentials. So my question is, am I just doing something wrong, or must AutoML use a true SA authentication without impersonation?
The output of gcloud config list is -
[auth]
impersonate_service_account = abcdefghijklmnop@my-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com
[compute]
region = us-east1
zone = us-east1-b
[core]
account = first.last@domain.com
disable_usage_reporting = False
project = my-project

Your active configuration is: [default]

Here is the error returned by AutoML -
google.api_core.exceptions.PermissionDenied: 403 Your application has authenticated using end user credentials from the Google Cloud SDK or Google Cloud Shell which are not supported by the automl.googleapis.com. We recommend configuring the billing/quota_project setting in gcloud or using a service account through the auth/impersonate_service_account setting. For more information about service accounts and how to use them in your application, see https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/.
And from the AutoML docs -
Service accounts are the only authentication option available with the AutoML API.
Thanks,
Zach

A: Have you tried specifying which service account to use for impersonation[1] by running "gcloud config set auth/impersonate_service_account"?
In order to impersonate, your original credentials need to be granted roles/iam.serviceAccountTokenCreator on the target service account[1].

[1] https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/gsutil/addlhelp/CredentialTypesSupportingVariousUseCases

A: I have tested with several other services and service account impersonation seems to work for them. It appears Google AutoML requires a service account and impersonation will not work.


This past fall I met the Kokosinski family out at my family farm for a mini session. Stephanie's son Jack was one of my first clients five years ago. Now she has three adorable little boys. I mean look at those sweet faces!! I love getting to photograph families time after time and see how their families grow and change.
I've definitely been missing that beautiful, golden fall light during these winter months. We've had some pretty cold days lately here in Virginia, but overall it's been a pretty mild winter. I am definitely looking forward to permanent warm weather though. I'd rather have summer all year long.


Kenneth W. Berry, a former Buffalo Public Schools employee, popular singer and founder of the Buffalo Roundball Basketball Classic, died Thursday after a brief illness. He was 67.
Mr. Berry was born in Birmingham, Ala., and moved to Buffalo with his family when he was a child.
He attended Buffalo's East High School, where he participated in choir, madrigal singers and the men's chorus, and he continued in music as an adult, composing songs and recording two studio albums in addition to performing at social functions, fundraisers and other events. He also performed overseas as part of a Defense Department program to entertain the troops.
Mr. Berry also played sports in high school and was avid about basketball. Affectionately known as "Groundhog" on the court, he started the local Roundball Basketball Classic to showcase players and was among the founders of the "Live at 75" basketball league. He was an Amateur Athletic Union coach and mentored many athletes .
After high school, Mr. Berry attended Erie Community College. He worked for the Buffalo Public Schools in several capacities over the years, as a security officer, teacher's assistant and audio-visual specialist.
He was the recipient of a kidney transplant several years ago and remained a dedicated supporter of the Northeast Kidney Foundation.
Survivors include his wife, the former Charlotte Taylor; a son, Vernon; a daughter, Karyn; his mother, Thelma Berry Laguerrea; a foster sister, Barbara Hartzog; six grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.
Services will be at 11 a.m. Friday in St. John Baptist Church, Goodell Street and Michigan Avenue.

Looking for a way to beat the winter blahs? Sweep away the cobwebs (literally!) and join in with celebrations for the traditional Chinese New Year, or Spring Festival, on January 31st this year!
A colorful, festive extravaganza, this holiday is celebrated with the cleaning out of the old to make way for the new, money given in auspiciously-colored red envelopes, and a dynamic spectacular that most everyone will recognize: the lion dance.
The children you know will love learning about the fun associated with this holiday through bilingual books like Li's Chinese New Year. They may also want to know if other cultures celebrate different new year dates too! Talk to them about the Thai Songkran, or Water Festival, in which the feet of the elderly are cleaned by the young and everyone gathers in the streets for a big community water fight.
You could additionally discuss the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah. It will be observed in late September 2014 and follows a period of repentance after which Jewish people can start with a clean slate, celebrating with the sound of the shofar (a traditional horn) and eating foods like honey-dipped apples to ensure a "sweet" new year.
There's a growing Ethiopian population in America, yet many people may not know about Enkutatash, the Ethopian new year. Observed on the 11th of September, or 12th in a leap year, it's a more understated affair during which families eat together and exchange cards and bouquets of daisies.
Language Lizard would love to know, how do YOU celebrate new years with your children and students?

Stats show Barcelona's new manager could be the ideal replacement for Ernesto Valverde
Zinedine Zidane has incredible finals record as Real Madrid manager after Supercopa de Espana win
Why Chelsea must take this decision to make sure 22-year-old's future turns out to be bright
by Indhrajit James December 9, 2019, 1:30 pm
Why Chelsea must loan out Jake Clarke-Salter again in January
The Independent suggests that Chelsea are set to recall Jake Clarke-Salter, who is currently on loan at Birmingham City in the Championship.
The England U21 captain was sent on loan to Birmingham with an expectation of regular game time. But his time at St. Andrew's has not been fruitful as he is yet to cement his place as a first-team member.
Birmingham manager Pep Clotet has preferred centre-back duo Marc Roberts and captain Harlee Roberts as his first-choice in the heart of the defence. This has resulted in Clarke-Salter starting in just 2 games in his first 2 months at the club.

It was only after Dean's three-match suspension that the Chelsea man got his chance. Since then, he has made a mere 5 appearances. Clarke-Salter has been impressive in the few games and also scored the equalizer against Millwall at the end of last month.
A highly-rated youth prospect at Chelsea, Clarke-Salter has had mixed spells on loan. He suffered an arm fracture while at Bristol City and was sidelined for four months. His impressive display last year in the Eredivisie with Vitesse provided him with a way back to being at his best.
With Kurt Zouma and Fikayo Tomori returning from loan spells at the start of the season, Clarke-Salter was sent on loan in order to continue his game time.
Fikayo Tomori (Getty Images)
Clarke-Salter had made his Chelsea debut in 2016 but has played only 2 matches for the first-team. The 22-year-old is one of the bright prospects in England and Chelsea must consider sending him out on loan again in January.
A talent like him can grow only by gaining experience, which can be achieved only by playing regularly. Clarke-Salter still has a long way to go and he could be Chelsea's main man in the future.
The report also suggests that many Championship clubs are interested in him after his eye-catching displays of late. But it would be good if the youngster is given a chance at any of the Premier League teams.

Getting to play in the top-flight would allow him to adjust to the conditions of the League before he permanently settles down at Stamford Bridge. It would be a huge stride in his development if the Chelsea manager intends to make him a permanent member of his squad.
According to Whoscored, Clarke-Salter has registered 0.4 tackles, 1.6 interceptions and 4.4 clearances per game in the Championship so far. His numbers are quite interesting for a player of his age and who has played very few matches.
This shows he can get better with enough game time and displaying his abilities in the toughest league would guarantee a huge future for him.
Therefore, it would be the right call by Chelsea to exercise their option and send him out on loan again instead of keeping him at the club without regular action.

Q: .Net SDK Framework 4.5.1 registry key I have been working on updating a tool which allows users to select the SDK version and bit type to run .Net Framework SDK tools.
To do this getting the installation location of the most up to date SDK is required and we go back all the way to v1.0. So far I have found the following and looking for confirmation.
v1.0, v1.1, and v2.0 framework installation folder registry keys are located under the respective registry platform version. i.e. the locating of the 64 bit installation folder is a 64 bit registry entry, where the 32 bit installation directory is a 32 bit registry key.
Examples:

Windows XP:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework

Windows 7 64 bit (v2.0 only):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\.NETFramework\v2.0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\.NETFramework\v2.0

v3.0, v3.5, v4.0 framework installation folders have 32 bit installation folder and 64 bit installation folder in both the 32 bit and 64 bit registry keys. This makes things simple enough for these versions. Just read the key as the OS bit version and your right.
Examples:

Windows 7 64 bit:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\WinSDKNetFx35Tools
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\WinSDKNetFx35Tools-x64

v4.5, v4.5.1 framework installation folders seem to only exist under a 32 bit registry key. Even though there is a 64 bit installation the registry key only exists under the 3264WoW node, which means you have to read it like your a 32 bit application.
Examples:

Windows 7 64 bit:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1A\WinSDK-NetFx40Tools
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1A\WinSDK-NetFx40Tools-x64

Note any reference to Wow6432Node would be read using the registry read with a 32 bit flag when on 64 bit windows. I never ready the Wow6432Node directly, just specify to the registry object which section to read from.
This seems to be fair to complex, making me think I haven't got it correct. Also I haven't been able to locate any definitive documentation on .Net SDK installation locations.
So the question is there anything I have missed here or have incorrect.

A: You are right, there is no better solution that read 8.1A path z Wow6432Node
public static string GetSdk81Path(string sdkIdent)
        {
            string regPath = Path.Combine(@"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1A\", sdkIdent);
            using (RegistryKey baseKey = RegistryKey.OpenBaseKey(RegistryHive.LocalMachine, RegistryView.Registry32))
            using (RegistryKey regKey  = baseKey.OpenSubKey(regPath, false))
            {
                if (regKey == null)
                {
                    throw new RegistryKeyNotFoundException("Registry key not found.", baseKey, regPath);
                }
                return regKey.GetValue("InstallationFolder").ToString();
            }
        }

Report: Santa Monica Gunman's 1st Victims Were Family
Lynette Holloway
Police brief the press on findings in Friday's shooting rampage. (CBS News screenshot)
Updated Sunday, June, 9, 11:15 a.m. EDT: The Santa Monica gunman's first victims were family, according to USA Today. The man accused of killing four people during a rampage before being killed by police was identified by multiple media outlets on Sunday as John Zawahri, whose victims included his father and brother. Additional reports show that Zawahri had been angered by his parents' divorce and had some mental-health issues in his past.
Police investigators have been working around the clock to piece together information on what touched off a gunman's murderous rampage on Friday in Santa Monica, Calif.
The man was dressed all in black and carried a semi-automatic rifle as he walked through the Santa Monica College campus after killing his father, brother and another person, according to CBS News. He then reportedly killed a woman outside the library before being shot to death by the police.
CBS News senior correspondent John Miller, a former assistant FBI director, said on "CBS This Morning: Saturday" that authorities have been able to glean from neighbors that there was an ongoing family issue in the house where the deadly rampage began.
"Certainly, what we can tell is that this was not a visit to the house that turned into an argument," said Miller. "He prepared himself with weaponry. He prepared himself with tactical gear and clothing. This is the kind of thing that he was either planning — fantasizing about first, then planning — and then literally getting dressed up for, so he could create this person who was going to change everything."
Miller reported that the gunman intended for his rampage to end at the school, according to what witnesses have told authorities.
"When he's stopping people, in a perfectly calm voice he's saying, 'I need you to take me to Santa Monica College,' you know, giving them directions how to get there," said Miller. "So clearly that's where he wanted it to end, and the indicators are that he wanted it to end there in the confrontation with police."
Around noon Friday, Trena Johnson, a longtime administrative assistant working in the dean's office, looked out the window and saw a man with a "very large gun."
"We saw a woman get shot in the head," said Johnson. "I haven't been able to stop shaking."

Wal-Mart Stores Inc. may spend hundreds of millions of dollars investigating $24 million in alleged Mexican bribes as the U.S. government weighs whether the company or executives also broke the law by covering up an internal probe, former federal prosecutors said.
The company said it's aiding U.S. probes of payments detailed April 21 in the New York Times. The newspaper said Wal-Mart de Mexico failed to fully investigate the bribe claims as well as well as $16 million in "donations" to Mexican local governments to fuel store expansion in the country up to 2005.
Wal-Mart disclosed the payments to the Justice Department and Securities and Exchange Commission, according to a December 2011 regulatory filing, and said its outside advisers are briefing the agencies on its own probe. Prosecutors will want to know why Wal-Mart didn't fully examine claims in 2005 by a company lawyer that he funneled bribes to Mexican officials, said Paul Pelletier, a former federal prosecutor.
The Justice Department is investigating potential criminal charges under the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, according to a person familiar with the probe who wasn't authorized to speak publicly. The FCPA bans payments by companies or their agents to foreign governments to obtain or retain business.
The probe will probably expand beyond Mexico if the company or government unearth red flags elsewhere or if the government questions both management's response to reports of misconduct and its current compliance program, said Amy Conway-Hatcher, a former federal prosecutor at Kaye Scholer LLP in Washington.
In an FCPA crackdown, the government settled 57 cases against companies from 2005 through 2011, reaping $4.1 billion for the U.S. treasury. In 2008, Siemens AG, Europe's largest engineering company, agreed to pay $800 million to the U.S. and $814 million to German authorities. Siemens also spent $1 billion on lawyers and accountants and its internal controls.
Wal-Mart has hired the Jones Day law firm to investigate its Mexican operations, as well as auditing firm KPMG and law firm Greenberg Traurig LLP for a compliance review of its global operations, said a person familiar with the matter.
The Times reported that a former executive in Wal-Mart de Mexico's real estate department, Sergio Cicero Zapata, e-mailed a former senior lawyer in September 2005 to describe how he had funneled cash bribes to government officials through fixers known as "gestores." Top executives, the paper reported, focused more on damage control than on uncovering misconduct.
Pelletier, who supervised more than 50 FCPA corporate probes at the Justice Department from 2005 to 2011, said government investigations typically proceed with one or two DOJ attorneys, one or two SEC attorneys, and a couple of agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Outside law firms could use as many as 100 people for intensive document searches, he said.
Wal-Mart, which had sales of $444 billion in fiscal 2012 and operates in 27 countries, said it is taking a "deep look" at its FCPA training and internal controls in every country.
Corporate investigations, which can take years in FCPA cases, are nearly always resolved through negotiation. The DOJ may agree to so-called deferred prosecution agreements, where prosecutors file criminal charges that they agree to withdraw after a period if the company meets required improvements in governance and compliance.
Prosecutors may also reach so-called non-prosecution agreements that require payment of penalties and improvements to compliance programs. Many more investigations result in no prosecution at all.
The Justice Department follows a nine-step guide on business prosecutions in examining cases. The criteria include the seriousness of the crimes, a company's history of wrongdoing, the extent of its compliance program, and its willingness to cooperate. Companies often get credit if they voluntarily disclose their internal investigations and hand over company e-mails, memos, employee interviews and other evidence.
Wal-Mart disclosed the case to the government in December "out of the fear of publicity and not so much out of a desire to make sure a wrong was righted," Henning said.
While the conduct may not be obstruction of justice, "it's also not an example of good corporate citizenship of identifying a problem and dealing with it," he said.
A key strategic question for Wal-Mart will be whether it can convince government investigators that its new internal probe will be "sufficiently thorough" to let it progress, said Kevin Abikoff, an FCPA attorney at Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP.
Attorney Robert Tarun of Baker & McKenzie LLP said that government investigators will talk to Wal-Mart's outside law attorneys regularly.
The advisers must conduct extensive forensic work before deciding whether to charge executives, he said.
"It's way too early to tell whether the government will charge individuals criminally or civilly," he said.


To grow in life you need to embrace change.
The best achievements of life come from the situations that stretch you, challenge you to bring the very best of your inner potential. When you look back at these high rewarding situations, you'll notice these were not easy times. These took the hell out of you, made you vulnerable to failure, exhausted you several times but you still made it through this phase and emerged triumphant.
The reality is that success and comfort are not made for each other. Working out of your comfort zone makes you succumb to be good only. While, making yourself vulnerable, learning new skills, expanding your current capacity, working on opportunities beyond your call of duty, being entrepreneurial make you uncomfortable, but that's the only way you can keep pushing your limits and achieving new milestones.
Change makes you uncomfortable, but the catchphrase, 'change is the only constant' holds true. To grow in life you need to embrace change. That change may scare you, but if you feel strongly to chase a dream and change things drastically in life, go for it.
In the process of chasing your goals, you must allow yourself to fail, to lose a face, and pass by the critics/mockers/naysayers with a broad smile. If you'll look for social approval, you'll always be stuck in the safenet of your comfort zone, but when take the grit to explore your possibilities without caring for what others will say or feeding your false pride, that is when true magic and life-transitioning things are born!

PierVantage™ Releases Major Enhancements for Boat Builders!
PierVantage™ continues to invest heavily in it's platform, adding new functionality to support the growing Boat Building Market. The PierVantage team is pleased to announce the rollout of its Winter 2014 Release. This release includes several significant enhancements all designed to help boat builders manage their business more efficiently.
Project managers now have the ability to create a template for each model or boat the company builds. Within each template resides all of the necessary operations and tasks to complete the project. Each operation and task is pre-populated with all of the labor and materials required to complete each stage of the boat build.
When the customer approves the proposal, the build is accepted in the system and purchase requests are generated for all of the material needed for the project. As time and materials get posted to the project in real time, a Project Manager can quickly view the percentages of completion of any stage of the project and/or the overall project. This new functionality will give managers the visibility they need to prevent cost overruns and identify areas of the build that need to be better managed.
Furthermore, because PierVantage is an integrated solution with tremendous reporting capabilities, managers will have the ability to compare profit margins from one build to the next and one model to the next. This will give them insight into troubled areas of the build, enabling adjustments to be proactively made for future projects. The goal with this new functionality is to give you the tools you need to constantly improve efficiencies so you can keep costs low to either make more money or sell more boats (or both)!
The gritty details of this new functionality will be included in the Full Release notes coming out soon and please stay tuned for our Summer Release that will take Boat Builders Project Management to the next level including powerful graphical project and resource management capabilities.
PierVantage is the leading cloud based business management solution designed specifically for the marine industry.

Professor rebukes social justice theory in scathing video. Despite student pressure, he refuses to resign.
A University of Vermont professor criticized the notion of "whiteness" in a YouTube video.
Administrators denounced his comments and students asked for his resignation. The professor refused.
Tuesday, April 13, 2021 6:26 AM
After a University of Vermont professor criticized the notion of "whiteness," administrators denounced his comments and students called for his resignation. The professor refuses to resign.
In a YouTube video entitled "Racism and the Secular Religion at the University of Vermont," education professor Aaron Kindsvatter said that "whiteness falls under the umbrella… of critical social justice, and the thinking that informs it is so crude and so lacking in falsifiability."
He also commented that because the notion of whiteness "speaks so eloquently to our tribal impulses," the same logic "can easily find its way to desperate persons who need a group to hate and who will adopt the suppositions that inform whiteness towards their own ends."
Kindsvatter said that he first heard of the term whiteness when "a faculty member offered to help me with it like it was some kind of disease" — an experience that he described as "dehumanizing."
"Would you please stop reducing my personhood to a racial category in your teachings?" asked Kindsvatter at the end of the video, mentioning that feeling pressure to find wisdom in Ibram X. Kendi and other authors produced a "spiritual sickness" within him.

In response to the video, University of Vermont Provost Patricia Prelock said in an email to student newspaper The Vermont Cynic that "we will continue to lean into our [diversity equity and inclusion] efforts, and in so doing, create further opportunities to strengthen our community." She added that "this event has given us further clarity and resolve about the importance of our commitment to our Common Ground values and DEI work."
"We know there is anger, pain, and sadness when the lived experiences of individuals committed to DEI are denied or diminished," the email stated. "We hear you, and we value the voice you are giving to the concerns many of us share about these messages."

A petition calling for the resignation of Kindsvatter has earned over 3,400 signatures as of. The authors state that Kindsvatter's statements are "harmful to our campus' community of color."
"Claims of being 'suppressed' for his 'moderate views' are unsavory and asinine — the first step towards any kind of progress on campus is through accountability and having honest discussions," continued the petition. "Furthermore, the fact that you go so far as to claim notable, respected literature on anti-racist work as to cause you a sort of 'spiritual sickness' is beyond comprehensible."
A rival petition — which has garnered over 4,400 signatures — asks that Kindsvatter assume control of all diversity measures at the University of Vermont.

In another video posted on March 16, Kindsvatter refused to resign.
"Nope, not a chance, never going to happen, no way," he said. "Haven't even thought about it."
Campus Reform reached out to Kindsvatter and the University of Vermont for comment; this article will be updated accordingly.


For days, fans of Sarkodie have been angry at Strongman for calling Sarkodie "a bad coach" in a tweet.
Following the recent indiscriminate murder of one Miss Ada Ifeanyi by men of the Nigeria Police Force, veteran Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde has joined others to condemn the incessant killing of innocent unarmed Nigerians by trigger happy men of the Nigeria Police Force.
It was a simple tweet but many people on social media think Strongman has taken a swipe at Sarkodie after leaving his Sarkcess record music label.
It has been barely three days since SarkCess Music parted ways with rapper Strongman after rumours of friction between label owner Sarkodie and the young rapper.

Last Updated: 16.12.18 By Adrian B.
If you do an online search about the difference between these 2 levels … you will quickly be overwhelmed with a lot of confusing information that won't help you understand anything.
That is why I came up with this article!
I will answer the above question and others about these two construction levels in this article.
So keep reading to learn more!
To be honest, I have not seen a builder's level or the transit level on a construction site, not on the multi-million construction sites that I'm working on anyway! What I see the engineers using here to set up angles and positions of buildings and diggings, etc … they are using sophisticated Digital Theodolite levels.
Both, the transit level and the builder's level are quite old instruments.
I mean they've been in the construction and surveying industry for many many years, maybe hundreds of years. Some level manufacturers they still put their money into these tools and update them and bring them into today's industry requirements … but even so, these two tools are very basic.
Let's talk a little bit about each one of them.
1 What Is A Builder's Level?
2 What Is A Transit Level?
3 How To Use A Builder's Level/Transit Level?
3.2 How to level the transit/builder's level?
4 How To Read The Builder's/Transit Level?
8 Where to buy transit levels?
What Is A Builder's Level?
It's a very very simple tool, nothing fancy about it.
It's cheap and very basic but it will do the job!
A builder's level is an optical instrument used in constructions to check on level points and elevations. It is used in surveying and building and in transferring, setting, or measuring horizontal levels.
Some of you might know the builder's level by the name of "DUMPY" level.
This is how a modern updated version of the builder's level looks like.
It is primarily a leveling vial attached to a telescope. The leveling vial consists of marks called graduations used for centering the bubble. It works by attaching the telescope to a leveling head and mounting to a tripod.
The telescope is at the top of the builder's level. Its purpose is to magnify distant objects, it moves horizontally around a graduated horizontal circle which is marked at each 1 degree up to 360 degrees.
The graduated leveling vial is used to level the telescope while being placed on the base. This works much like a traditional hand spirit level.
The base plate is the area where the level is attached to the tripod.
What Is A Transit Level?
A transit level is an optical instrument or a telescope that has a built-in spirit level. It is mounted on a tripod stand.
It is used for surveying and building and for determining the position of lines and objects. They are very precise, are used to establish a reference line and to provide a reading of angles in precise measurements.
A transit level consists of the actual transit level, a tripod base, a tape measure, and a calibrated rod.
The telescope is located at the top of the transit level.
Like the builder's level, the telescope moves horizontally around a complete circle. The horizontal circle is marked at each degree.
Unlike the builder's level, the transit level also moves vertically at 45° in either direction.
The spirit level is used to level the telescope while it is being placed on the base and works like a hand level. The leveling vial is placed above or below the barrel of the telescope.
There is also another spirit level built into the base that is used to level the base of the transit level.
The alidade is the entire upper part of the transit level.
It consists of the telescope, the leveling vials, a circle-reading device, and a spindle. The alidade is mounted on the alidade spindle, which is the inner center of the instrument.
A Vernier scale is a scale that moves around the main scale and is used to determine angular measurements that the original scale cannot read. Most transit levels use double vernier, allowing the angles to be read in multiple directions.
How To Use A Builder's Level/Transit Level?
Both levels need to be installed on a tripod. Depending on the age of your level and the brand this might come with a different mechanism to attach it to the tripod.
When setting up a level, have the right tripod since tripods have different types of heads.
For a threaded tripod head mount, remove the threaded protective cap. Unthread the level and screw on the tripod head. After thread the protective cap onto the case mount.
Place the level directly on the tripod after, thread or bolt onto the tripod base.
How to level the transit/builder's level?
These level are not self-leveling, so you'll have to do it manually!
These levels are using a four screws leveling system. That means you will have to lose and tighten the screws until the spirit level on these devices are showing you that it's completely leveled.
First, align the bubble level with two opposite screws and we SIMULTANEOUSLY we start to lose or tight the screws until the bubble is in the middle of our level indicator.
Now, we want to level the instrument on the opposite axis. For that, we align the bubble level with the other two pair of opposite screws.
Once this is done, we go back to the earlier position and check again if we need to make any adjustments … we will go back and forth a few times until it's completely leveled.
How To Read The Builder's/Transit Level?
You use the eyepiece of the telescope.
Turn the knob to bring the crosshairs into focus.
The horizontal graduated circle is a guide marked with degrees, used for reading horizontal angles. The horizontal tangent knob is used to adjust left and right.
The vertical tangent knob to adjust up and down. The vertical lock knob locks the vertical direction in place. Use the leveling to adjust the device level.
In this video, you can see how a transit level is used and how to read the Vernier scale.
When the objective lens is not in use, it should be covered with a lens cap to prevent damage to the equipment.
Do not lift your level by the telescope, lift by the base.
Turn both screws at the same time and rate when leveling a transit level.
Make sure the level is level around all 360° of direction, if not the measurements will be incorrect.
Ensure screws are not too tight.
Do not look at the sun using the telescope.
The image being sighted is sharpest when it is quartered by the crosshairs.
Do not touch the tripod at any time after the transit level is mounted. This can cause problems with the measurements as well as the accuracy of the level.
First, NONE of these two are laser level devices…you will use the telescope to look and find your points and the downside of using this kind of leveling devices is that YOU NEED TO BE AT LEAST 2 PEOPLE in order to make your measurements.
Both transit level and builder's level have similarities.
But they do have their differences though…and it's mainly one!
HERE IT IS: A builder's level moves only horizontally, while a transit level moves both horizontally and vertically.
Transit levels are preferred over the builder's levels for establishing straight lines as well as turning angles.
The transits level also has more parts than a builder's level.
The telescope of a transit level if locked into place, works almost exactly like a builder's level.
A builder's level can move 360 degrees in a horizontal plane when the telescope is not locked into place.
Transit levels, with their vertical movement mechanism, are great for measuring vertical angles.
A builder's level is inexpensive and easier to use. A transits level, on the other hand, is costly and requires expertise to operate.
Where a builder's level is cheaper and less complicated to operate, a transit level is more precise and can be used to measure vertical angles. Transit levels are preferable over the builder's level for establishing straight lines as well as turning angles.
The choice between the two levels will depend on work but the transits level is more versatile.
Where to buy transit levels?
But, I would suggest having a look on Amazon of course. It's impossible not to find something on there.
Here are a couple of links to Amazon if you want to check price and pics for these items.
In summary, both transit levels and builders' levels are essential pieces of equipment in any construction project. Getting the right tool will ensure precision measurements and reduced occurrence of errors in alignment. Pick the appropriate level to suit your project's specifics.
As I've said at the beginning of the article as well … I haven't seen the builders level on a construction site … so I don't know if anyone is still going after this tool nowadays … but I hope this Builder's VS Transit Level article helped you understand a little bit more about these two tools!

Атлетска такмичења на Летњим олимпијским играма у Антверпену 1920. године одржавала су се на Олимпијском стадиону у периоду од 15. до 23. августа 1920.

Олимпијски стадион је направљен за ту прилику, саграђен је на брзину. Због трајних киша, атлетска стаза је била прилично оштећена, па се то негативно одразило и на резултатима. Осим итх проблема техничке природе, организатори су имали и потешкоћа због недовољне припреме неких атлетичара, који су махом били демобилисани војници, учесници Првог светског рата.

Такмичило се у 29 дисцилина само у мушкој конкуренцији. Учествовало је 509 атлетичара из 25 земаља.
На програму атлетских дисциплина није више било скокова увис и удаљ без залета, као и бацања копља и диска са две руке. Од нових дусциплина било је ходање на 3.000 м, крос појединачно и екипно, и бацање терета од 56 фунти.

Земље учеснице
Учествовало је 25 земаља. По први пут су учествовале: Чехословачка, Египат, Естонија, Монако, Нови Зеланд и Шпанија.

Од 29 земаља учесница ових олимпијских игара 4 нису имали своје предтавнике у атлетским такмичењима: Аргентина, Бразил, Португал и Краљевина СХС.

Највише успеха имали су атлетичари САД који су укупно освојили 29 медаља (9 златних, 12 сребрних, 8 бронзаних).

Највеће изненађиње у атлетским такмичењима, направио је представник Британац Алберт Хил, који је победио у две тркачке дисциплине 800 м и 1.500 м, и упркос раскашеној стази, потигао одличне резултате.

На овим олимпијским играма, први пут је учествовао Финац Паво Нурми, будући тркач светске класе. Победио је у трчању на 10.000 м, кросу појединачно и екипно, док је на 5.000 м стигао други.

У маратонској трци победио је Ханес Колемаинен из Финске. Када се тај троструки победник са Олимпијских игара у Стокхолму 1912. појавио на старту ове трке, сви гледаоци на стадиону поздравили су га устајањем са својох места.

SACRAMENTO — Indio resident, Reginald 'Reggie" Powell was honored Wednesday as the 56th Assembly District's 2018 Veteran of the Year. Democratic state Assemblymember Eduardo Garcia, D-Coachella, presented Powell with the award.
After serving overseas, Powell, a United States Air Force Veteran, was still determined to be of service to others. He has dedicated more than 35 years of service to being an educator. His extensive career of public service also includes 10 years as a police officer, five years as a juvenile probation officer, four years as a member of the Coachella Valley Gang Task Force, and 10 years as a youth pastor.
"It is my distinct privilege to recognize United States Air Force Veteran, Reggie Powell as our Veteran of the Year. I highly commend his distinguished service in defense of our nation, as well as his continued contributions within our Coachella Valley community as an educator. He is the epitome of a true patriot and exemplary citizen," Garcia said in a prepared statement.
Powell holds a Sociology and Social Service Degree from Oklahoma State University, Criminal Justice and Psychology Degree from the University of Central Oklahoma, Degree in Education from California State University and a Master's in Education and Administration from California State University.
In an effort to combat the rising crime rate, youth gang involvement, and drug addiction among our youth, Powell has been working with and speaking to groups of people about the importance of understanding students of today and helping them to rise above troubling circumstances to achieve success.
He has spoken at and organized various educational seminars and workshops across the state. He currently is employed by Desert Sands Unified School District but has previously worked with Coachella Valley Unified School District and Palm Springs Unified School District.
Powell and his wife, Diane traveled to Sacramento to join honorees from across the state at the 11th Annual Veteran of the Year Luncheon and Award Ceremony. The Veteran of the Year Luncheon is sponsored in part by the American Legion, Department of California, AMVETS, Department of California, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Department of California, Vietnam Veterans of America, California State Council and the Assembly Committee on Veterans Affairs.
