Alexandre Dumas is one of the well known and celebrated authors who is best known for his successful novels based on the historical adventure, fiction, and romance genres. Some of his most famous works include The Count of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers. Author Dumas was born on 24th July 1802 in Villers-Cotterets, France as Dumas Davy de Pailleterie. He changed his last name to Dumas, which he adopted from his grandmother who used to work as a Haitian slave. Over the course of his life, he went on to establish himself as one of the most celebrated authors of France. Author Dumas is quite popular for writing down a number of historical adventure novels and plays. He died at the peak of his writing career on December 5, 1870 at the age of 68. Dumas breathed his last in Puys, France. As a child, Dumas was born to General Thomas-Alexandre Davy de Pailleterie and Marie Louise Labouret. His family adopted the last name from Dumas's enslaved grandmother named Marie-Casette Dumas.
When author Dumas's father was enlisted in the army of Napoleon, he took the last name Dumas and was also called with the nickname 'Black Devil' by his fellow army men. At the age of 31, Alexandre's father became a general in the European army. Later, he had a disagreement with Napoleon on the issue of the Egyptian campaign and as a result, he was imprisoned for a period of 2 years. He died just after his release and due to this, Alexandre's mother had to work very hard in order to provide for his education and upbringing. She made him attend the Abbe Gregoire School, but he left it midway and began working as an assistant to a local notary. In the year 1822, author Alexandre Dumas relocated to Paris and got indulged in literature. Initially, he began working as a scribe for King Louis Philippe at the time of the 1830 revolution. With the passage of time, Alexandre began writing plays, both as dramas and comedies. His romantic style of writing, which was often compared with the work of arch rival, Victor Hugo, became exceptionally popular all over the country.
As his popularity grew, he became a prolific writer of novels, short stories, and essays, along with travelogues and plays. Author Dumas's writing reached great heights with the success of his novels, The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo. These novels were initially published in the form of serials, but when they were published as novels, they made Alexandre a household name all over France. He eventually became a popular author all over Europe. The money that author Dumas got from publishing all his novels were used by him to purchase a piece of land and build the Chateau de Monte Cristo. It is located in Port Marly, Yvelines, France. Alexandre had intended to make this house as a sanctuary for himself. He used to spend most of his time there, writing and entertaining his friends, guests, and relatives.
However, the house did not remain for long with him as he was taken over by a huge debt and had to sell his property in order to repay the debt. His house is now converted into a museum and is visited by tourists from all over the world. In the year 1851, Alexandre moved to Belgium and then to Russia in order to remain away from his creditors. But, he did not stop publishing his novels and travel books during his exile period. As far as the personal life of the author Alexandre Dumas is concerned, he had an affair with Marie Laure Labay and was blessed with a son who was also named as Alexandre. Dumas's son also followed his footsteps and became a writer himself. In the year 1840, author Dumas married an actress named Ida Ferrier, but did not stop at making love affairs with women. Later, he had a daughter named Marie Alexandrine. When author Dumas grew old, he indulged in affairs with younger women. When Alexandre died in the year 1870, he was cremated in Villers-Cotterets. In the year 2002, his body was shifted to the Pantheon, where he rests near other great literary personnels like Victor Hugo, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Emile Zola.
One of the successful novel series written by author Alexandre Dumas was titled 'Celebrated Crimes'. It was published in the year 1840 and consists of a total of 18 books. The first novel of the series was published under the title 'The Borgias'. It was released by the Borga Press in the year 1840. The plot of this novel revolves around the lives of the main characters named Cesare Borgia, Alexander VI, Lucrezia Borgia, and Giovanni Borgia. There are a lot of dreadful and scurrilous rumors related to the Borgias of Italian Renaissance, and with the help of this novel, author Dumas has tried to dish up the dirt in the ugly glory of the Borgias. Author Dumas has given a strict warning that this novel should not be read by children because he has used a lot of disturbing words that describe the violent scenes during those violent times. In some parts of the novel, it appears that the facts have been distorted, while in some others, it seems that the author has made some unwanted charges. Between the years 1839 and 1841, author Dumas has compiled this novel series with the help of his friends. He has described a number of famous criminals as well as crimes during the European history. Dumas has depicted some of the most recent criminals and events of that time, as well as the cases involving the alleged murderers Antoine Desrues, Karl Ludwig, etc., who were eventually executed.
The second novel of the Celebrated Crimes series was published in the year 1840. It was titled 'The Cenci' and features the main character in the form of Beatrice Cenci. He is described as the son of Francesco Cenci, who used to always land in trouble because of his immoral behavior and violent temper. The Cenci lived in the Regola district during the time of the 16th century. Their family consisted of the elder brother of Beatrice named Giacomo, their stepmother. Francesco used to behave cruelly even at his home and used to abuse his family members. He was jailed on many occasions, but was released because of his royal status. When Francesco learns that his daughter has complained against him, he sends his sons away from his home and tries to mistreat his daughter. When the members of the Cenci family become exasperated because of the behavior of Francesco, they decide to organize a plot and kill Francesco.

As many of you may know, Summer School 2017 marks the 50th anniversary of the Essex Summer School in Social Science Data Analysis (ESS), and we are planning some special events to mark the occasion. As part of our 50th plans, we would like to gather stories about how the Summer School has impacted the lives and careers of our former participants and instructors. We would like to solicit from you any short stories or anecdotes from your experience with the ESS that we can share on our website and use for a 50th anniversary scrapbook. We hope to have the scrapbook available to all by the start of Summer School 2017.
1) Citations to any published scholarly work that relates directly to your Summer School experience (e.g. you came up with the idea for the article in a ESS class; you applied the method you learned in class to the paper you published; you developed important co-author relationships while at the ESS that led to publications). I would be great if, in addition to the citation, you could provide a brief paragraph highlighting the link to the ESS.
2) Any short stories of academic collaboration (a few sentences or a paragraph) that grew out of the ESS, even if you can't link it to a particular article.
3) Short descriptions of what the summer school has meant to you personally (rather than professionally). We know of a few who have even found spouses at the ESS. We would love to hear those stories, as well.
Please email any citations and short descriptions/stories to Melanie Sawers (mels@essex.ac.uk). We will organize them for inclusion on our website and select some for inclusion in the scrapbook.
Thanks so much for your help and we look forward to hearing from you.

French aid workers get hard labour
Chad finds six Zoe's Ark workers guilty of attempting to kidnap 103 children.
The workers blame local intermediaries for misleading them over the identity of the children [AFP]
The defendants denied the charges, saying they were on a humanitarian mission to fly sick and destitute orphans from Sudan's Darfur region for fostering with European families.
They said international law justified the operation.
Eric Breteau, Zoe's Ark's leader, told the court: "I maintain what I've said since the start of this affair ... our intention was to fetch orphans from Darfur."
"Feel the abyss"
Defence lawyers had accused the Chadian court of rushing the trial under political pressure from the French government. They also said their clients were depressed.
"They feel the abyss just a few centimetres away, they are lost, completely lost," they said.
Chad's government maintains that Zoe's Ark had been given no authorisation to take the infants out of the country.
Prosecutors said the group, led by Breteau and Emilie Lelouch, duped parents in eastern Chad into handing over their children with promises of schooling.
State lawyer Philippe Houssine said the sentences requested by the prosecution were justified because Breteau and Lelouch had shown no remorse.
Houssine told reporters: "On the contrary, he [Breteau] displays an arrogant, insolent attitude, which means this is a person who is ready to do it again if asked."
The prosecutor requested that damages be awarded for each of the 103 children in the case $9m in all.
Paris reaction
France, while calling the verdict a "sovereign decision", said it would ask Chad to implement a 1976 bilateral judicial accord to allow the convicts to be transferred to serve jail sentences in their own country.
About 200 people protested against French
interference in the case [AFP]
Pascale Andreani, a spokesperson for the French foreign ministry, said in Paris: "France, after obtaining the agreement of the members of Zoe's Ark, and examining the implementation of the judicial co-operation accord between France and Chad, in particular article 29, will ask the Chadian authorities for the transfer of the prisoners to France."
Gilbert Collard, a defence lawyer, criticised the sentence, saying there was no justice in Chad.
"I hope the French government will move to quickly bring home our compatriots, who have been caught in a trap," he said.
Marian Coulibaly Indiaye, head of Unicef in Chad, refused to comment on the verdict, saying her organisation's job was to serve the best interests of the chidren.
Indiaye told Al Jazeera that the children had not been reunited with their relatives yet, pending a green light from the concerned Chadian authorities.
'Diplomatic deal'
It is widely expected that a deal between Paris and N'Djamena could soon return the aid workers.
France is an ally of Idriss Deby, the Chadian president, and has a military contingent stationed in the landlocked former French colony.
French troops have been supporting Deby's forces against opposition forces in the east and will provide the bulk of a European Union peacekeeping force due to be deployed there in January.
Janine Lelouch, mother of Emilie Lelouch, told France's LCI television: "I think we have to hope that they're transferred quickly to France because they can't stand it much longer."
The French have blamed their local intermediaries for misleading them over the identity of the children, who Chadian and UN officials said were mostly not orphans and came from villages in Chad on its eastern border with Darfur.

The only thing about POD (and now) Lulu that piques my interest is the possibility of bringing one or more of my long out of print titles back into circulation.
I don't get the feeling midlist reprints are a big part of the major publishing scene.
But if I were to strike it rich with something current or in some other way spark a revival of my past works, would having some of these titles available on my web site be better than trying to interest a major publisher?
Very interesting. Basically, if I read it right, you can bring your stuff back into print through iuniverse just for the $90 price of an Author's Guild Membership. Are there any hidden costs? Otherwise, what's the catch?

Q: SharePoint @ Edit without having edit permissions I'm new on the SharePoint world and right now I'm facing a little adversity.
Right now I do have a list that represents a collection of books. I also created a button with JavaScript that will allow the users to order them for a temporary time.
For this matter when the user clicks on the button, it'll change some column values from that list item, such as: the status, order and return date, some counters... I tested with my account and everything was working fine until I remember that I do have the permissions to edit this list. However if it's a end user, he'll receive (correctly since they haven't permission to edit) the "Request failed. Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource" message and won't be able to order the book.
Well, I could give the permission to this users in order to edit the list, but that way they would be able to delete and edit some columns that they aren't suppose to.
Do anyone have any suggestion/solution?
Thanks in advance!

A: With this type of scenario, I would suggest using more than one list, so you can manage the books and orders separately. Also, create a workflow in SharePoint Designer that starts when an order is created. This workflow will perform the operations that you are doing in JavaScript.
Here's a basic implementation plan:

*

*Book List - Give users read only permission to this list.

*Book Order List - Give users Add permissions to this list. Add a lookup column to the Book List.

*Book Order Workflow - Perform the management of the order and inventory statuses here. App Steps can be utilized to run specified actions in the workflow with elevated privileges.

FAQs - Repatriation Benefit Schemes
How has making investments for NRIs seeking repatriation benefit become hassle-free?
NRIs can make the following investments in India through foreign currency remittances or out of NRE/ FCNRA with the benefits of repatriation. This is true not only of the initial amount of investment, but also of the interest and dividend income, as well as the appreciation on initial investment realized by way of capital gains.
What is the benefit to an NRI returning to India?
Upon return to India for settlement, the balance of NRE/FCNRA can be transferred to the Resident Foreign Currency (RFC) Account, which can be maintained either as a Savings or Term Deposit Account in US Dollar, Sterling Pound or Deutsche Mark. The benefit of repatriation can be availed of with respect to balance in RFC A/c.
What developments have been made in portfolio investment in equity/preference shares or convertible debentures through stock exchanges in India?
Purchase of shares or convertible debentures by a single investor should not exceed 1% of the total paid-up capital or paid-up value of convertible debentures of that series issued by the company. There is also an overall ceiling of 24% investment by all Non-Residents put together.
Since September, 1994 the lock-in period of one year for availing the repatriation benefit on transfer under this category has been done away with. Shares/debentures can now be transferred at any time after purchase and the sale proceeds can be repatriated after payment of income tax on the amount of taxable capital gains.
Is any concession applicable on tax rate?
In the event of shares/debentures being held for more than one year before transfer, the resultant capital gains would be treated long-term and the applicable tax rate would be at a concessional rate of 10%.
What are the different schemes available to NRIs for direct investments in India with repatriation benefits?
NRIs can make investments in new issues of shares/convertible debentures of Indian companies under direct investment schemes such as 24% scheme/ 40% scheme/ 100% scheme. They can also invest in the schemes of domestic Mutual Funds floated by public/private sector institutions/companies and bonds issued by public sector undertakings. The company concerned will have to obtain permission from the Reserve Bank.
How can NRIs benefit from 24% Scheme?
Under the 24% scheme, Indian companies engaged or proposing to engage in any activity including finance, hire purchase, leasing, trading or other services, establishment of schools/colleges etc. (except agricultural/plantation activities) are allowed by Reserve Bank to issue shares/debentures to NRIs with repatriation benefits to the extent of 24% of the new issue.
What are the special features of 40% Scheme?
Under the 40% Scheme, Indian companies engaged or proposing to engage in the following activities are allowed by Reserve Bank to issue shares/debentures to NRIs with repatriation benefits to the extent of 40% of the new issue.

Hospitals and diagnostic centers

Under 100% Scheme, NRIs are permitted to invest in high priority industries listed in Annexure III to the Statement on Industrial Policy dated 24th July 1991 of the Government of India up to 100% of the new issue.
Is dividend/interest earned in respect of investment made under the 100% Scheme freely remittable to the NRIs abroad?
Dividend/interest can be remitted freely except in the case of consumer goods industries where the outflow on account of dividend is required to be balanced by export earnings of the company either in the year of declaration of dividend or in the years prior to the declaration of dividend. This requirement is enforced for a period of seven years from the commencement of commercial production.
What is the Resident Foreign Currency (RFC) Accounts Scheme?
This is a Scheme initiated by the Reserve Bank for persons of Indian nationality or origin, who have returned to India on or after 18th April 1992 for permanent settlement, having stayed outside India for a continuous period of not less than one year. The scheme allows them to open foreign currency accounts with banks in India for holding funds brought by them to India.
Persons who have returned to India before 18th April 1992 can also open RFC account if (a) they are holding foreign currency assets abroad with Reserve Bank's permission or (b) are in receipt of pension or other monetary benefits from their erstwhile employers abroad.
What funds can be credited to RFC accounts of Returning Indians?
The entire amount of foreign exchange brought to India at the time of their return to India for permanent settlement as well as the balances standing to the credit of their NRE and FCNR accounts at the time of return can be credited to RFC accounts.
However, the foreign exchange brought to India in the form of foreign currency notes/bank notes/travelers' cheques should have been declared to Customs at the time of arrival on the Currency Declaration Form (CDF) if it exceeded U.S. $ 10,000 or its equivalent. In the case of foreign currency/bank notes, declaration of form CDF is compulsory if the amount exceeds U.S. dollar 5,000 or its equivalent.

When my husband and I operated an organic farm, Paul was always dealing with calibration. The constant strain of moving heavy loads and plowing tough soil can strip the threads on key parts of heavy machinery, which throws the machine out of sync. Any tractor which isn't calibrated is useless. Our John Deere 2120 sat stagnant for over a year, until Paul had the time and money to take apart the hydrolic pump which operated the lift arm. This tractor was used for vegetables, to cultivate between the rows. When it broke,the staff had to hand weed and hand cultivate acres of land, a costly process which ate into the vegetable profits. I still remember Paul's relief, when he purchased the parts and re-calibrated that tractor ,so it could operate at full strength for the following season.
In this amazing encounter, God calibrated Daniel, the one whom God used as an example, together with Noah and Job, as the most righteous of men (Ezekiel 14:14). The heavy load of interceding for his nation Israel, of processing end time visions beyond his understanding, the agony of seventy years of slavery in a pagan nation and the strain of jealousy and hatred which Daniel endured in the royal courts had sapped Daniel's strength and warped his capacity to receive.
Patiently, the Lord physically touched Daniel three times, once to have him stand, another to have him speak and again, to strengthen his heart. As the Lord ministered to his servant, He spoke identity over Daniel, twice calling him "His beloved". Then the Lord spoke words of peace, understanding and strength which finally, Daniel could receive.
Calibration of the heart always requires God's touch. No matter how we may long to fix ourselves, it is only in the intimacy of encounter with our God which brings healing, deliverance, freedom. Like the farmer, the Lord knows exactly where our alignment has been skewed, which lies have brought grit and sediment into the heart, which idols have lured us out of allegiance to our King, clogging the flow, dampening the revelation, seizing our engine. In love, God draws near, that we may draw nearer to Him.
Let's Pray: Lord, calibrate us this day, that we would flow as You have designed us. Thank You, Father, that the Holy Spirit will adjust us every day we are willing to be led. Lord Jesus, as You were kind enough to visit Daniel, surely You will come to your hungry servants, who wait with longing before You. We need Your touch, Lord Jesus. Come to your noble servants and calibrate our lives, that we may work according to Your holy purposes by the power of Your grace and leading of Your Spirit once again. Amen.
How did Daniel stay undefiled in the occult laden turf of Babylon?
How did Daniel stay focused on the kingdom? What did the Lord give to Daniel to stay focused? How did your giftings move you forward in life in God?
How did God recalibrate Daniel? Has God ever met you like this? Do you know you are beloved? Do you need an encounter to know this?
What did God trust Daniel with? What secrets has the Lord trusted you with? What are you doing with this sacred confidence? How do you convert this gift in prayer life?


Everybody wants to know which team is eventually going to break down and sign Terrell Owens, giving him that fifth different NFL team on his resume. My pat answer is this: Tell me which team is going to be the first to lose a No. 1 or No. 2 receiver to a significant injury this preseason and I'll tell you the team that's going to pick up the phone and give T.O. a buzz -- provided, you know, that the team isn't San Francisco, Philadelphia, Dallas or Buffalo. Oh, and you can add Miami (Bill Parcells is there) and Washington (Donovan McNabb) to that list.
I figured this guy's bridge burnings would catch up to him...unfortunately it's after his prime.

In Quest for Postseason, Men's Hockey Takes it Game-By-Game
By Jamil Rahman | February 6, 2017

This story previously appeared in our 2016-17 winter sports supplement. To view the supplement, click here.
Around the Cornell men's hockey locker room, there are two words that summarize the team's message — focus and consistency. There have been a wide range of obstacles facing the team up to this point, but the team believes in its abilities and hopes that these two words guide it to an Ivy League championship, an ECAC championship and ultimately, a national championship.
This message resonates especially after two tough home losses against Ivy League rivals Harvard and Dartmouth at the end of January, a blip in the road following a strong streak by the Red.
After winning only two of the first six games of the season, the Red went on to win 10 of the next 12 games, with only one loss in that span before dropping the two home games to Dartmouth and Harvard. The team now sits at 15-6-2 and sits in fourth place in the ECAC, most recently ranked No. 14 in the nation.
Despite the streaks of wins and losses, head coach Mike Schafer '86 said the team has to focus on keeping its emotions "even-keel."
"It's all about how you react after wins and how you react after losses," Schafer said. "That's the game of sports — not to get satisfied and overreact and think you're better than you are when you win games and not to think you're not good when you lose games."
Staying steady is a message that the team focuses on during games as well, not just in regard to season trends. In the recent games against Harvard and Dartmouth. the Red played a strong 40 minutes, scoring first and holding a lead going into the third period in both games. However, the team gave up a combined 7-0 goals in the final frames across the two games, letting two crucial league games slip away.
On the other hand, there are games where the Red have gotten off to a slow opening 20 minutes, but picked it up later in the game. There have been 10 games where the Red allowed the first goal, but is still 5-4-1 in such games.

"We've been a team that's played some games where it's been a good 40, and then bits and parts of a period where we aren't playing very strong," said senior forward Jake Weidner. "I think that's one big thing we need to get better on, being able to put a full 60 together and taking the weak parts out of our game. We just got to be able to put teams away."
The team has had its share of difficulties this season. A unique challenge the Red has faced all season, especially early on, is the amount of traveling. The first five games of the season were all played on the road, making it the longest road trip for the Red in program history. Of the 23 games played so far, the Red has only played eight at Lynah.
Going against the norm, the Red has a slightly better away record than home record. The team is 6-2-1 on the road, but 5-3-1 in the friendly confines of Lynah, including a 2-1 record on neutral ice.
Schafer said the team's road record exceeds expectations, and the record is crucial for a strong season.
"There's an old saying in hockey that if you win all your games at home and split on the road then you've had a great season," he said. "Obviously it never happens, but it's a good formula to follow to do a good job on the road."
During the season, the Red has had a strong dynamic between the young and the old guys, as players of all classes have contributed to the team. This has led to a next-man-up mentality for the team that Schafer takes into account during every game.
"Every given night you never know who's ready to play with that little extra in their tank," Schafer said. "We've talked with our team that we're not going to stay status quo as far as our lines are concerned.
"Ultimately, we'll make adjustments based on who's playing really well and who might be having an off night," he added. "These guys want to win and they want to play hard. It's not typically that they don't show up, it's just a matter of if they're feeling it that night."
Looking ahead, the team is making sure to keep the overall goals in mind, but working towards the objectives in manageable steps.
"As a team we've grown tremendously. We're just gonna work on and prepare for each game as it comes," said senior goaltender Mitch Gillam. "We are looking forward to going to the ECAC championships and winning this year, but we want to take it one step at a time and go into every game as if it's our last and come out on top."

Our second in a continuing series — Briefed by the Bell — looks at family security in Colorado. Read the first brief on wages.
Increasingly, Colorado families struggle to accommodate the demands of work and life. This balancing act most acutely impacts those who are caregiving, including parents looking after young children, adult children caring for aging parents, or family members providing care for a loved one with a serious health need. For many of these Coloradans, taking time off to meet family care needs comes with the constant fear of losing a paycheck or job.
That's why these workers need policies focusing on family security, including a stable, affordable, high-quality system that provides paid leave so they can work without worry. Policymakers should modernize workplace and caregiving standards to keep pace with today's changing workforce — a workforce largely made up by working parents and older workers continuing their employment beyond the traditional retirement age.
Colorado's elected officials should consider family security policies that provide paid leave and earned sick leave, and those that mitigate rising child care costs. Read more in our latest Briefed by the Bell to understand the issue, the facts, and the ways we can help Colorado families, employers, and the economy overall.

Housekeeper of the Hundred Blossom Palace - Chapter 82
Housekeeper of the Hundred Blossom Palace
Chapter 82 - Convenient Thing
Thus, they all moved to another location so Yui Mei could test run the tricycle. It was a wide path nearby.
The people were shouting "What's up?" and "What's happening?" around them, but mumbles of "Ahh, it's him" were also heard when they saw Hu.
Hu was treated as an eccentric person, apparently. Anyway, Yui Mei straddled the box so she could ride the tricycle.
'Hmm, it's quite unstable, huh.'
It was more of a unicycle than a tricycle, with wheels added unnecessarily behind it, and it felt like they were just supporting the unicycle marginally.
It didn't even have handle bars, so it was difficult to stabilize her body.
'Well, I can ride a unicycle, so it's fine, I guess.'
Unicycles were extremely popular when she was a kid, so she frequently rode it and competed with her friends.
She pushed the pedals of the unstable tricycle while thinking that, and she managed to make it move, albeit a bit wobbly.
"Whoa!? It's moving!"
Hu was brimming with excitement as he followed Yui Mei while she rode the tricycle.
"Ohh."
Li Yong also gazed with admiration.
On the other hand, Yui Mei was —
'Ouch, my butt, my butt hurts!'
She was sitting on a wooden seat, and there was nothing on it to absorb the impact, after all.
Thus, her bottoms received impact directly when she rode on the bare ground, and it was painful.
Finally, she stopped the tricycle and got off when her bottoms reached their limit.
"That's amazing!!"
Hu enthusiastically ran towards Yui Mei, and he clapped her back passionately.
'Stop, I can feel your claps on my butt!'
Yui Mei hastily ran behind Li Yong to protect her bottoms.
"Yeah, it's working, but what is it for? It's faster to run."
Li Yong asked as he looked at the tricycle while being treated as a wall by Yui Mei.
"I think the speed will depend on future improvements."
Li Yong frowned when Yui Mei said that.
"It won't stand a chance against a horse, though."
"You don't get it, huh."
Hu grumbled.
"This thing has merits that a horse doesn't have, you know? There's no need for horse or feed, after all."
Hu said, but Li Yong was puzzled.
'Well, even if you say 'there's no need for a horse'…''
It didn't look like it could compete with a horse at this stage, so it was understandable that he didn't get it.
However, for Yui Mei, who knew what bicycles could do based on her previous life, it was already a huge step.
Besides, it was exactly what she needed right now.
"Hu, there is something I want to make based on this."
"Oh, right, Li Min did tell you to come here, huh. What do you wanna make?"
"That's —"
Perhaps it was because of the tricycle, but Hu was easily baited. Yui Mei grinned in satisfaction as she explained it in detail.
"Hmmm, I see…I think I get it, or maybe not."
Hu was a bit confused at Yui Mei's explanation, but he still promised to do it.
Yui Mei also gave more suggestions to improve the tricycle while at it, passing them off as 'impressions from the person who rode it'.
"If you add handles on the front wheel, like this, then it'll be easier to ride, I think. Also, maybe you can move the seat a little more to the back…"
Yui Mei was drawing Japan's tricycle on the ground as she spoke.
"I see, those handles make it easier to change the direction, huh."
Hu stared intently at Yui Mei's drawing while mumbling.
'Yup, yup, just like that, do your best to make it!'
It was more like a children's tricycle that pedaled the front wheel, than Japan's bicycle that moved the rear wheel. If she wanted something like that, then they had to develop a chain-like thing.
However, this was already enough at this point.
Yui Mei also wanted one after it was completed.
Moving around the Inner Palace would become an easy task for her if she had one. If a basket is attached, then she could put her cleaning tools inside.
"Is this really that good?"
Li Yong was the only one unconvinced, but that was probably because he was the most familiar one with horses since birth, since he was a soldier and probably a young master, too.
Therefore, he probably couldn't imagine how this new invention would surpass a horse.
A few days had passed since then.
They were scheduled to return to Hu's place today.
"What kind of thing did he manage to make?"
Yui Mei was practically prancing in excitement as she walked alongside Li Yong.
"What kind of thing, huh. I don't get it, somehow."
Li Min was trying to imagine it behind them
He couldn't help but think about Yui Mei's order, so he decided to tag along and see it for himself.
Even though he was the young master of the Huang family, he was ready to do things himself.
"He~y, Hu."
Yui Mei called out at the dilapidated shack, and she heard him say "Yeah" from inside.
Hu opened the door. Pride and elation was written all over his face as he stepped outside.
"Your order's done."
Hu pointed to a single wheel object that was fixed on a pedestal so it wouldn't move from it's place.
The handles were fashioned so that they could support the body, and instead of a wooden box, the seat was made from leather and stuffed with cotton.
'Yup yup, it's close enough, isn't it!?'
Yui Mei had requested Hu to make an exercise bike.

Forecasts for week beginning March 24, 2012.
We have seen a lot of auspicious omens in March. Further positive alignments await us in coming months. So we really should keep this week's tense climate in perspective. Though Mars and Uranus form an antagonistic angle, we need not expect big dramas or sudden showdowns – just events and situations that look, at first, as if they might be about to lead to such developments. We might also expect problems that appear impossible, no matter how hard we try to solve them The key word here is 'appear.' The key to success, this week, is a calm, trusting mind!
We love super heroes. We buy comics, watch TV shows and flock to the movies to see these characters using their special skills. We wish that we could fly too – or see through walls, or project balls of flame from our fingertips. Yet, often in those films there comes a moment when the hero is restricted. They cannot use their gift. They must act as ordinary mortals do. You can relate to that this week. When the going gets tough, there is a trick that you usually employ. You can't do that now… but you can still do something else!
What does the call of destiny sound like? People who believe they have heard it rarely describe it as trumpets sounding. Instead they talk of a feeling in their heart – a prompt from within. They also describe a magnetic pull towards an idea or a course of action. You have been hearing such a call for a while now. Are you heeding it or resisting it? Change can be scary but this call is definitely inviting you make a wise choice and a bold move. Allow yourself to respond to it. A courageous choice on your part now could improve everything.
Sometimes we see a police car outside our house and we think, 'Have they come for me? What have I done?' We know that we are innocent but a wave of guilt and fear washes over us. Are you now looking at a situation in your life and wondering whether you have somehow caused it to come about? Are you at fault? Are you to blame? Is there something you must apologise or atone for? Perhaps there is. After all, none of us are perfect. But even so, you do not deserve to be accused or abused this week. Walk tall and all will be fine.
Some people think that dreams have no relationship to the events of our waking life. Others read real meaning into the images they see while asleep. They feel they are a key to self-empowerment. If we can only understand what's going on inside us, we can be clearer about what we want. This could make it much easier for us to fulfil our true potential. You are beginning to realise how a hope you once dismissed as unrealistic could prove feasible. This thought is both inspiring and intimidating. But you must trust your dreams.
Nothing lasts forever but some situations drag on for an awfully long time. We tend to assume they will never change. Yet the moment we adopt this attitude, we lose some of our ability to make a difference. That's fine if we are happy with what we've got. But if we really would like to find freedom or success, we should never tell ourselves that this is unattainable. Don't allow yourself to feel so disillusioned that you miss a real opportunity this week. It exists. Recognise it, seize it and you will start to shape a fine new future.
Most great ideas turn out to be easier in theory than they are in practice. You are now dealing with the practical consequences of an ambitious plan. Mercury, the ruler of your sign, is retrograde. This week it slips back into a sector of the sky that it left some while ago, causing you to reconsider a goal, a hope or an idea. You keep wondering why you ever made a commitment that is now proving so hard to uphold. You just need to adjust to the reality and pace yourself accordingly. You can yet make great progress.
You are sensitive. You are also extremely wise. This explains why your life is full of so many anomalies. Your emotions pull you in one direction whilst your intellect takes you in another. And your intuition? Well, sometimes, it cannot guide you as well as you might wish because it is too busy helping you to compensate for the side-effects of your own uncertainties. Yet your intuition wants to do much more for you now. It is trying to nudge you towards a solution that could yet put your head and your heart in harmony.
What do you owe? Where do your obligations and responsibilities lie? To whom are you answerable? What will happen if you do not honour a promise? Sorry to start your forecast with so many questions but these are all concerns that are now floating through your mind. You are noble and honourable. You don't want to let anyone down, even if they do not deserve such loyalty from you. Something has to give. Don't let false pride get in the way of a truly viable solution. You are entitled to renegotiate an old arrangement.
With just one statement, you can start an argument. That argument can soon become a battle. That battle can easily give rise to a war. You can do this. I can do it. We all can. That's why we need to be so careful about what we say and to who we say it. Why fight for what you want this week when, if you use different language and employ some sensitivity, you can get what you want anyway? You can inspire great generosity. Be subtle, tactful and charming and you can yet manage to make an irritating problem vanish.
Mercury's sharp link to Saturn suggests that this week you find yourself trying to perform a delicate balancing act. You need (or feel you need) to be in two places at once. Your loyalties are torn. Your responsibilities appear mutually incompatible. You are facing the kind of challenge that might daunt many a mortal. Fortunately, you are made of sterner stuff. You can cope with this. Indeed, you can turn it to your advantage. Stop trying to make everything all right for everyone all the time. Just look at what matters most and put your focus there.
Every night, in our sleep, we analyse the events of the day. Even if we do not understand our dreams they help us to file away our thoughts and experiences. If, in that process, we come across a memory that sits uncomfortably or a situation that does not satisfy us, our sleeping mind tries to convey this discomfort to our waking mind. It usually takes the form of a dream that we cannot forget. You need, this week, to interpret a message from the deepest part of yourself. Once it makes sense, so will everything else.
Time is rather like the ocean. We are rather like little boats, cast adrift on those great waves. We have no option other than to go with the flow. No matter how many sails we put up or engines we fire up, we cannot go in another direction. Nor can we speed up our progress. What choice do we have? One. One very big important choice. We can choose whether to feel okay about a situation we can't change or whether to resent it. Acceptance is the key to greater buoyancy and smoother sailing in your life this week.

Q: ASP MVC combining views Still new to ASP MVC development.
Suppose I have a MusicController that has 2 views: List (which shows a list of all artists) and Highlights (which shows 3 specific albums with all details).
I now want to render both views on one page.
    1) What is the best way to do this? Partial views? Do I need to make a separate controller for the page that shows both partial views?
    2) Suppose I want to change the highlights based on the selected artist. How to pass that parameter  to the partial view with highlights?
Thanks for giving me some leads!

A: Partial views is indeed what you want.  One bit of trouble that you might run into is that sometimes it's hard to make a partial view that works as both stand-alone and embedded in another view.  The solution is to create a separate view that contains all the necessary boilerplate that then calls the (single) partial view.  Then the partial views are suitable to be used in both the individual pages and the combined page.
You don't need a separate controller for your aggregate view, but it will need its own action.
So here's the structure I'm advocating:
In MusicController:
public ActionResult List() {
  return View();
}
public ActionResult Highlights() {
  return View();
}
public ActionResult ListAndHighlights() {
  return View();
}

The views for List and Highlights would look something like this:

  @RenderPartial( "ListPartial" )

And ListAndHighlights() would look something like this:

  @RenderPartial( "ListPartial" )

  @RenderPartial( "HighlightsPartial" )

If you want the partial views to update in response to something on the client side, you'll have to use AJAX.

A: Have a look at Html.RenderAction() and Html.RenderPartial()
Alternatively I would have the List of Artists as a View and load the Highlights using AJAX.
For that you need just 2 Action Methods
public class ArtistsController {
    public ActionResult Index() {
        return View();
    }
}

and
public class AlbumsController {
    [HttpGet]
    public JSONResult GetHighlights(int artistId) {
        return JSON(Albums.GetHighlights(artistId), JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
    }
}

And some sample HTML

Michael Jackson

Tom Jones

Then you can call your Highlights action method using jQuery's $.get
$("#artists a").click(function(e) {
    var id = $(this).data("artist-id");
    $.get("/Albums/GetHighlights/" + id, function(data) {
        // Populate highlights section with data from server
    });
});

A: You can create a ViewModel for this which stores a list of Artist and List of Albums
public class ArtistWithHighlights
{
  public Artist Artist { set;get;}
  public IEnumerable<Albums> Albums{ set;get;}
}

And in the Controlller, write an action method for the GET view. In that Get all Artists and Get the Albums belongs to the first Artist. (you can change this according to your requirement)
public ActionResult ArtistsWithHighLights()
{
  List<ArtistWithHighlights> allArtists=new List<ArtistWithHighlights>();
  allArtists=GetAllArtists();

  //If we have atlease one artist in the list, Load the albums for the first one only
  if(allArtists.Count>0)
  {
     allArtists[0].Albums=GetAlbumsForArtist(allArtists[0].Artist.ArtistID);
  }
  return View(allArtists);
}

and your strongly typed view is like this
@model List<ArtistWithHighlights>

@foreach(var artist in Model)
{
  @artist.Name

}

Highlighted Albums

  @foreach(var album in Model[0].Albums)
  {

@album.Name

  }

For getting the Albums of another Artist on selection (a click event), You can make an ajax call to another Action method which returns a list of Albums for the passed artist id and then you can show that in the div.
$(function(){
 $(".artistName").click(function(e){
  e.preventDefault();
   var  artistId=$(this.attr("id");
     $("#albums").load("../Albums/"+artistId);
  });
});

COVID-19 Cases Spike
Covid-19 cases spike again after brief drop and loosening of restrictions.
Ian Vargas
The recent dip in COVID-19 cases had given many states and businesses the impression that the end of the pandemic is close at hand, but a recent explosion in the number of positive cases has put much of that on hold and raised the specter of another long year of lock downs and mask mandates.
The mass transmission of COVID-19 from one person to another has given rise to a number of variants that are much more infectious, causing not only a lot more unvaccinated people to be infected but also leading to a higher number of breakthrough cases in those who are.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website, people who are already vaccinated may have less severe symptoms and get over the illness quicker, but still could spread the virus if not properly masked.
Variants, such as the Delta variant, have already been found in Humboldt county and contribute to our recent spike in hospitalizations.
Christine Messinger, Public Information Officer at the Humboldt Department of Health and Human services, said that not only is the Delta variant here but it has actually been found in a quarter of cases.
"The Delta variant was first identified in Humboldt County in May," Messinger said. "By June, the variant was identified in 25% of sequenced samples."
These new spikes put a hold on the planned re-openings in states and has ushered in the returns of full mask mandates around Humboldt county. While many restrictions have been loosened, restaurants are allowing dine-in services, businesses are expanding their hours and raising occupancy limits, and some public events are being approved. They're starting to tighten back up as the number of hospitalizations rise and infection increases.
While you could still get ill after receiving one of the COVID-19 vaccines that are being distributed, vaccination vastly reduces the risk of an infection or serious illness.
According to HSU Communications specialist Grant Scott-Goforth, the university is monitoring the rise in cases and is requiring all students and staff who plan on using campus facilities to get vaccinated, along with reducing the number of people allowed at large gatherings and requiring masks on campus.
"One big change is that anyone accessing campus facilities is required to be vaccinated against COVID-19. The university has also taken several measures to mitigate risk, including reinstating mandatory masking on campus, requiring all events on campus with more than 20 attendees to be virtual, and extending the repopulation of campus," Scott-Goforth said. "This is in addition to the ongoing measures underway since the pandemic began."
While the spike has caused states to reevaluate their plans for reopening, the spread of vaccines and news of an upcoming booster shot has come along with a hope for a fall semester without the lock downs and zoom calls of the last year and a half. These hopes may be overly optimistic with the looming possibility of a vaccine resistant variant on the horizon, but for students who have been doing classes over zoom since Spring of 2020, the loosening of restrictions presents the opportunity for a somewhat normal school year.
For students like second year Psychology student, Raphael Dominguez, the news of new variants is foreboding, but the masks and vaccines are bolstering confidence in an open school year.
"I think it's pretty scary because I've heard {the Delta variant} is more contagious, but I'm vaccinated and I think we're all vaccinated around here so I think we should be good," Dominguez said. "So it's scary, but not too scary."

Mexico arrests Zetas drug cartel boss wanted in U.S.
Feb 10, 2018 8:40 AM PHT
Agence France-PresseGuillaume Lavallée
MEXICO CITY, Mexico – Mexican marines have captured a kingpin in the violent Zetas drug cartel who had a $5-million reward on his head in the United States, authorities said Friday, February 9.
Jose Maria Guizar Valencia, alias "Z43," was arrested Thursday in the upscale Mexico City neighborhood of La Roma "without the use of force," the head of the National Security Commission, Renato Sales, announced in a press conference.
Guizar, who has dual US-Mexican citizenship, had several warrants out for his arrest in both countries on charges including drug and arms trafficking, organized crime, murder and kidnapping.
"He is believed to be responsible for trafficking drugs from South America to the United States, and was one of the main drivers of violence in the states of southeastern Mexico," said Sales.
The US State Department says Guizar launched his own faction of the Zetas group in southeastern Mexico after the killing of the cartel's founder, Heriberto Lazcano, and the arrests of his successors, brothers Miguel Angel Trevino and Omar Trevino.
"Guizar Valencia is responsible for the importation of thousands of kilograms of cocaine and methamphetamine to the United States on a yearly basis," says his State Department rap sheet, which puts his age at 38.
"The Zetas, under the command of Guizar Valencia, have murdered an untold number of Guatemalan civilians during the systematic overtake of the Guatemalan border region with Mexico."
Mexican authorities trace his criminal career back to at least 1998, when he was identified as a mid-level drug trafficker in the western state of Michoacan, said Sales.
By 2005, he had extended his operations to 3 other states, Tamaulipas, Veracruz and Chiapas, recruiting local cartels into his network along the way.
Since 2007, he has been the Zetas's point man for smuggling Colombian drugs into the United States via Guatemala and Mexico, and also had connections with suppliers in other countries in Central and South America, Sales said.
Sales did not say how the cartel's command structure would now stand.
From soldiers to kingpins
The Zetas are considered one of the most cruel criminal organizations in Mexico, accused of melting enemies in a barrel of "stew," slaughtering 72 migrants in August 2010 and igniting a fire that killed 52 people in a Monterrey casino in 2011.
The group, founded by former elite soldiers, was originally the armed enforcer of the Gulf Cartel until the two groups split in 2010, unleashing a wave of violence in northern Mexico.
The Zetas have themselves been splintering in recent years, since founder Lazcano was killed in a shootout with navy forces in 2012 and his successors, the Trevino brothers, were arrested – Miguel Angel in 2013 and Omar in 2015.
Guizar was on Mexico's list of its 122 most-wanted crime bosses.
President Enrique Pena Nieto's government claims to have captured all but a handful of the people on that list since he took office in 2012.
But paradoxically violent crime has only surged – the result, experts say, of new turf wars caused by the splintering of formerly stable criminal networks.
Last year was the most murderous on record in Mexico, with more than 25,000 homicides.
A wave of violence has engulfed Mexico since the government sent the army into the streets to fight the country's multi-billion-dollar drug cartels in 2006.
Since then, more than 200,000 people have been murdered, though the government no longer keeps track of how many of those killings were linked to organized crime. – Rappler.com

Rated 1 out of 5 by Sam babu from I need an agent to resell this printer it was very bad in printing and strucking the paper and quality of the product is very very bad. I have never and ever seen this type of bad printing.i hate this printer.
Rated 1 out of 5 by GPPPF from A useless brick This has to be the worst printer I have ever had the privilege of ever trying to get to work. I am sure it has no warranty worth anything and all I get are blinking lights. I have tried to clean it per the printer and all I have is a big mess. Will choose other large format printers in the future. It is a shame that HP can't make a product that last.
Rated 1 out of 5 by DexAlwaysRules from Worst printer of all This product is simply the worst printer I have used in my life. The ink consumption is fairly high and new cartridges cost a bomb. If I calculate cost per page, the amount is insanely high. Plus it is super slow, I get to hear like 40-50 clicks and drags before it actually prints a paper.
Rated 1 out of 5 by unhappy44 from 7000 replacement bought this to replace the 7000 printer as had died we need the custom media setting to print legal documents but only after purchase did we find this setting only works on a mac so useless printer sitting in the corner and having to outsource printing.

Pacific Theatre
September 16 ogami
The Pacific Theatre was founded in 1984 by a group of actors who wanted to establish a non-propagandist professional theatre where they would be free to explore work having particular meaning to them as Christians. Pacific Theatre's mission statement is "to serve Christ in our community by creating excellent theatre with artistic, spiritual, relational and financial integrity." Since that time the community-minded professional theatre has worked with many Vancouver artists, regardless of their faith orientation, mounting productions of established works as well as premiering many new plays (e.g. Espresso, A Bright Particular Star, Prodigal Son, Tent Meeting, Cariboo Magi, Book of the Dragon).
Many have gone on to subsequent runs at other professional theatres around the continent. "25 years. Close to half my life spent telling stories, building a place where other artists tell stories…'" says founding artistic direcor, playwright and actor Ron Reed. His latest play, Refuge of Lies has just finished an off-Broadway run. Talking with BC Christian News, Reed explained what it means to be called "the Christian theatre in town." He said, "If one thinks it means we're propagandistic – preaching answers, exclusive,even amateurish – then we're certainly not that. We do plays that interest us, but the 'us' is different. I, and the company, are preoccupied with the things Jesus talked about and embodied: reconciliation, forgiveness, restoration, new life and a new start, the supernatural, ethical and moral decisions, and peace and justice. So we put on plays that explore these themes."
The newspaper clarified that "the Christian aspect has more to do with your worldview, than whether a play could be put on in a church." Since opening the new space in 1994, Pacific Theatre has received seventyfive nominations for Vancouver's Jessie Richardson Theatre Awards, which have resulted in many awards. In June 2007, Pacific Theatre received no less than 8 Jessie Award nominations and 3 Jessie Awards – including Outstanding Production of the Year for GRACE! In celebration of their Quarter Century, PT is reassembling the original company to revive their very first production First Christmas: An Entertainment, December 14-16, 2008. Allen Desnoyers, Elaine Myers and Byron Linsey, who founded PT, With Roy Salmond, will join Ron Reed onstage those three nights for the show that launched the Pacific Theatre company.

My grandfather was a great Garbo fan. Whenever the Divine One's latest movie opened in Leicester he'd be off into town on his motor bike. It was after one of these outings, on a dusky summer's evening, that he claimed he'd had a supernatural encounter; that he'd driven right through a spectral monkish shade gliding across the road. I am always intrigued to hear to which great stars my venerable ancestors were addicted. Their preferences provide thoughtful and unexpected insight into their characters. One's adoration of a certain actor is as revealing as one's choice of perfume. I remember my grandfather as bluff and sporty, always gardening or racing, a glass well to hand. But he painted, too; loved Swinburne's poetry and the novels of Balzac. He had served right through the Great War and was wounded twice. He was acquainted with the shadow side of life. His first meeting with his future bride was unorthodox. He, on his motor bike in a narrow leafy lane, ran into her mother's funeral cortege. Miss Elliott raised her crepe veil – gazed into the eyes of Mr Craven – and that was that. A scene that might well have come from an early Garbo silent.
She was a funny one, that gloomy Swede, with her family of trolls under the sofa. Greta Garbo always had far more of a following in Europe, in the Old World from which she sprang. Americans found her just too nutty, too glacially and disturbingly beautiful; too much of the outsider. As David Shipman put it¤, she signally failed to muck in. It was to Europe that Garbo regularly returned for her holidays – to England and Sweden; and to the Mediterranean which provided the heat, sea and sunshine that she loved so much. She was once one of a cruising party on Aristotle Onassis's yacht. Fellow guests included the Winston Churchills, Callas and the Duke & Duchess of Windsor. One of the company later complained of the extreme ennui of the glittering party. Garbo had easily the most boring conversation of any of them, her remarks being mostly about the price of dry groceries in New York.
(But is this in itself not strangely endearing? Rather like Marlene's homely recipes for sardine sandwiches and boiled potatoes).
The new and exquisite ROSA GRETA by Eau d'Italie now at Les Senteurs is inspired by another, earlier, holiday: this time at the Villa Cimbrone at Ravello. The Villa is noted for its rose terraces and still very much on the tourist route today. Garbo arrived for a stay in 1938, on the arm of her current lover, the conductor Leopold Stokowski¤¤. He was over a quarter century her senior with a great mane of white hair. The fan magazines were baffled. Their editors would have been even more foxed had they been privileged to see Garbo unpack her luggage upon arrival at the Villa. From her one small and shabby suitcase she took a selection of pots of jam. The jam went down to breakfast with her every morning. Afterwards it was returned to the bedroom and locked in the case. I would like to know whether a.) G.G. had made the jam herself and b.) whether Leopold was allowed to try it.
Stokowski was then beginning to make a big splash in Hollywood. He worked with the new teen sensation Deanna Durbin; and was later to be spliced in with Mickey Mouse in Disney's 'Fantasia'. Despite his name, Stokowski was English: in fact he was born a short walk from Les Senteur's Seymour Place store, in Upper Marylebone Street. He was schooled in Marylebone High Street. So it feels as though ROSA GRETA has a strange and unexpected link to Seymour Place. It seems to belong with us, in a very esoteric way.
In the next decade her bizarre on-off affair with Cecil Beaton began at a Hollywood party. Garbo drew a yellow rose from a vase, kissed it and presented it to Beaton who dried, pressed and framed the petals. The shrivelled – richly symbolic! – rose hung by his bed for the rest of his life and was auctioned off after his death in the 1980's. It was knocked down for only £750 which – whatever anyone says – wasn't that much, even then. G.G. is not to everyone's taste. That's part of the appeal.
ROSA GRETA is packaged in the bright blue and pink that featured largely in Garbo's private wardrobe. She was especially fond of a certain shade of blue to set off those huge blue eyes, never seen in colour in any of her 27 films – and rarely in photos. The Garbo image is essentially a creation of black and white. It takes a bit of practice to imagine her in clear cheerful shades flattering that honey-tanned skin and the silky hair described by Beaton as 'biscuit'. And always smelling clean, sweet and delicious in a Nordic natural rural way. If she bothered to wear scent at all, it was usually some vaguely masculine cologne.
ROSA GRETA is sexually ambiguous and intended to be enjoyed by everyone. I love it. It's a scent into which one can sink: as into a pool or a bath or a bed of roses. This refreshing graceful creation by Fabrice Pellegrin¤¤¤ is a summer confection of white tea, damask rose, lychee (very discreet; not at all gloopy) and ambery woody accords. It has a dewy dampness about it, and a soft mossiness. Rose perfumes are always chancy because they carry such a weight of association and expectation, inherent in the choice of theme. Everyone thinks they know how a rose smells, and how it SHOULD smell when translated into a fragrance. It's the one flower everybody can identify and name. Every perfumer wants to have a go at creating the definitive rose. It's the odour of universal myth and symbolism, the fragrance of prayer, myth, fairy tale and passion: "the raptures and roses of vice". Very apt therefore for associations with Garbo. Like the famous closing shot of "Queen Christina" – "think of nothing at all: make your face a blank" – we each of us read whatever we desire into a rose perfume. You're likely to find your Heart's Desire in GRETA.
¤ In "The Great Movie Stars: The Golden Years" – that seminal work of 1970.
¤¤ he was married to – amongst others – Gloria Vanderbilt of designer jeans and perfume fame; and the Johnson & Johnson heiress Evangeline Love Brewster Johnson. Interesting tangential fragrance connections!
¤¤¤ Pellegrin is already well known to us at Les Senteurs as the creator of By Kilian's Smoke For the Soul.
O, the exquisite torture of cultivating a magnolia tree! Fatally easy to grow in the English climate and a cliche of every suburban garden, its beautiful flowers are nonetheless peculiarly susceptible to the vagaries of our weather. Ruin can come upon you within hours. Last year the great moon blossoms opened overnight in a burst of late March warmth, only to be nipped within the week by a savage frost which reduced the white velvet petals to rags of brown shrivelled canvas. These unsightly tragedies clung to the tree for weeks, like traitors' heads on old London Bridge, enough to make you weep and a grim warning against the vanity of human hope. This year's cold late spring kept the magnolias back another month and my tree escaped the frosts only to fall victim to the winds. But a respectable number of flowers have survived, weirdly late in the season, and the fallen petals look wonderful on the grass, glowing and gleaming in the gloaming. Strange they should be so fragile. These trees have been on the planet since the end of the Jurassic Period: their blooms were among the first flowers to appear on Earth. But a chilly English night is still too much to ask of them.
If you own a magnolia you'll maybe wonder every spring if it's worth the agony – this huge anticipation of a few days of loveliness; and hopes so often dashed. But then, which spring flowers and shrubs do last? Lilacs and guelder roses, cherry and apple blossom are all the more exquisite for their fleeting appearances. An uncertain two week flowering period is the norm and the brevity is surely part of the bitter sweet appeal, a mordant metaphor of the human condition.
"Man that is born of woman is of a few days and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a flower and is cut down: he flees also as a shadow and continues not." Job had it right.
Do we want anything to last for ever? Mythology tells us of Anchises, father of Aeneas, who was granted the gift of immortality by the goddess Aphrodite. But he forgot to ask for the complementary blessing of eternal youth and grew unimaginably shrivelled and decrepit over the centuries until the goddess, unable to withdraw her divine favour, turned him into grasshopper,crazily chirping – and easily squashed, one supposes.
Everyone thinks he wants a perfume that will last indefinitely on the skin; to me this sounds a nightmare comparable to other putative perpetual sensory experiences – a meal that never ends; a concert with no finale; eyes that never close. Spring is so emotionally demanding that we cannot bear too much of its verdant reality, its explosive bursting into life. And fragrance, like flowers, should catch the nose, delight the brain, dissipate – then come again, alternately dying down and reviving like a plant, all the more enchanting for its transitoriness.
into a fresh newly-washed perfume which has a faint damp green earthiness beneath the petals. The new grass and the spring rains shine through the petals. Quite simple, quite delicious. And no Angst at all.

Q: Find the first four non-zero terms of the Maclaurin series of $f(z)=e^\frac{1}{1-z}$ Consider the following complex function:
$$f(z)=e^\frac{1}{1-z}$$
Find the first four non-zero terms of the Maclaurin series for $f(z)$, so around $z_0=0$.
I've asked my lecturer what's the best way to solve this and she simply said "just differentiate the function 4 times and find its value at $z=0$". I'm refusing to accept this and I'm sure there's a smarter way to approach this.
Unfortunately I'm clueless about this one and have no idea how to even start. I tried thinking of a function $g(z)$, which I know its Maclaurin series already, such that $g(z)f(z)=1$ and then comparing coefficients but no luck of finding one.
Any help would be grealy appreciated!

A: One can compose the Taylor series for the exponential function with the geometric series. The "trick" is to write
$$
 \frac{1}{1-z} = 1 + \frac{z}{1-z}
$$
where the second term on the right has a Taylor series without constant term, so that it can be substituted into the exponential series:
$$
f(z)=e^{1/(1-z)} = e \cdot e^{z/(1-z)} = e \cdot \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{1}{k!} \left( \frac{z}{1-z}\right)^k \\
= e \cdot \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{1}{k!} z^k(1 + z + z^2 + z^3 + \ldots )^k
$$
Now collect all terms with powers from $z^0$ up to $z^3$:
$$
f(z)= e \cdot \left( 1 + (z + z^2 + z^3 + \ldots) + \frac 12(z^2 + 2 z^3 + \ldots) + \frac 16(z^3 + \ldots) + \ldots \right) \\
= e \cdot \left(1 + z + \frac 32 z^2 + \frac{13}{6} z^3 + \ldots\right)
$$

A: From the Maclaurin series of $$\dfrac{1}{1-z}=1+z+z^{2}+z^{3}+O\left( z^{4}\right) $$ and $$\exp(z)=  1+z+\dfrac{1}{2!}z^{2}+\dfrac{1}{3!}z^{3}+O(
z^{4}) ,$$  we can obtain the expansion of $\exp \left( \frac{1}{1-z}\right)$ as explained in the following steps:
\begin{eqnarray*}
\exp \left( \frac{1}{1-z}\right)  &=&\exp \left( 1+z+z^{2}+z^{3}+O\left(
z^{4}\right) \right)\\&=& \exp \left( 1 \right)\exp \left( z \right)\exp \left( z^2 \right)\exp \left( z \right)\exp \left( z^3 \right) \exp \left( O(z^4) \right)  \\
&=&\underset{\exp \left( 1\right) }{\underbrace{e}}\,\underset{\exp \left(
z\right) }{\underbrace{\left( 1+z+\frac{1}{2}z^{2}+\frac{1}{6}z^{3}+O(
z^{4})\right)  }}\times  \\
&&\qquad\underset{\exp \left( z^{2}\right) }{\times \underbrace{\left(
1+z^{2}+O( z^{4}) \right) }}\, \underset{\exp \left( z^{3}\right) }{
\underbrace{\left( 1+z^{3}+O( z^{4}) \right ) }} \\
&=&e\left( 1+z+\frac{1}{2}z^{2}+\frac{1}{6}z^{3}+O( z^{4})
\right) \underset{\exp \left( z^{2}\right) \exp \left( z^{3}\right) }{
\underbrace{\left( 1+z^{2}+z^{3}+O( z^{4}) \right ) }} \\
&=&e\left( 1+z+( 1+\frac{1}{2}) z^{2}+( 1+1+\frac{1}{6})
z^{3}+O( z^{4}) \right) \\
&=&e+ez+\frac{3}{2}ez^{2}+\frac{13}{6}ez^{3}+O( z^{4}) .
\end{eqnarray*}
