Q: Request parameter is null? I am having trouble receiving a simple JSON request with ASP.NET Core 5. For whatever reason, it is not binding my JSON and passing it into the parameter in the action.
Here is my json:
{
    "name": "John",
    "age": 31,
    "city": "New York"
}

Here is my controller:
[HttpPost]
public IActionResult SubtractCurrency([FromBody] JObject data)
{
    return Json(data);
}

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Currently I am just trying to print the entire data out, but it is just null. I can easily send a request with a simple string and receive like a string and that works fine.
What am I missing?

A: System.Text.Json, the default JSON Serializer/Deserializer from .Net Core 3.0 cannot parse JSON to JToken (like JObject, JArray) through the request body directly.
You can change it back to Newtonsoft.Json instead

*

*Install Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.NewtonsoftJson in NuGet

*Go to ConfigureServices() in Startup.cs

*Add .AddNewtonsoftJson() after the services.AddControllers()
Result: services.AddControllers().AddNewtonsoftJson();

Indian PM Narendra Modi's BJP emerged as the biggest winner in the Karnataka state election, but its poll victory was marred by questions over who has the right to form the government. Vasudevan Sridharan reports.
In what is widely considered as the bellwether electoral event for India's parliamentary polls next year, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) managed to only just form the government after the recent state assembly elections in the southern state of Karnataka. Yet, the victory is still in limbo as it is being fiercely challenged in the Supreme Court.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi's BJP won in 104 constituencies — 8 short of the required 112 seats needed to form the state government. The Indian National Congress, the BJP's main opponent in federal politics and the incumbent ruling party in Karnataka, managed to secure 78 seats while the regional heavyweight Janata Dal (Secular), or JDS, won 37 seats in the 224-member assembly.
Elections were conducted for 222 seats; polling has been delayed in two constituencies.
Following two days of dramatic twists, the BJP's BS Yeddyurappa, a corruption-tainted politician who had previously ruled the state in 2008, was sworn in as Karnataka's chief minister today.
It came on the heels of an extraordinary midnight sitting of the Supreme Court, which refused to order a stay of the swearing-in based on appeals by the Congress and JDS who together have 116 lawmakers, and who have questioned how a government can be formed without a majority.
However, the validity of the BJP's claim of having the necessary majority is being challenged and will be heard by the apex court soon.
Opposition forces crying foul that the BJP does not have the requisite numbers have begun a sit-in outside the state assembly, Vidhana Soudha. The chief minister now has 15 days to prove his majority in the legislative chamber.
"The BJP's irrational insistence that it will form a government in Karnataka, even though it clearly doesn't have the numbers, is to make a mockery of our constitution. This morning, while the BJP celebrates its hollow victory, India will mourn the defeat of democracy," Congress' President Rahul Gandhi wrote on Twitter.
Congress' hopes were swiftly dashed even after it threw its weight behind the third-placed JD(S), when state Governor Vajubhai Vala — a former BJP veteran and political appointee — asked the single largest party to take charge.
Modi and his trusted political lieutenant, BJP President Amit Shah, have been known to pull government formations out of thin air through their organizational finesse. Allegations of poaching and horse-trading of lawmakers surfaced soon after the cliff-hanger outcome.
Both Modi and Congress' Gandhi addressed a series of rallies during the intense political campaign making it one of the most high-profile state elections. Karnataka is the last major bastion of the ailing Congress, India's oldest political party.
Nevertheless, the BJP, which is widely seen as a powerful party in the Hindi-speaking heartland but with a weak presence in other parts, desperately needs the province to make inroads into the southern states.
Ever since Modi took office in 2014, the BJP has had a dream run in terms of electoral success. It currently rules as many as 21 states, nearly 70 percent of Indian population, either directly or through alliances with other parties. This is despite a lackluster economic performance and bleak job opportunities, the very platforms on which Modi became prime minister. When Modi came to power, the BJP governed just seven states.
Experts are divided over how much Modi's federal policies may have influenced the voters in the southern state, home to 66 million people as well as India's Silicon Valley, Bengaluru. "The BJP should have won a clear majority and should have increased its popular vote count. It is still behind the Congress in poll percentage terms. It clearly means that the electorate has not fully backed the four year-rule of the Modi government," Dr Satish Misra, political analyst and senior fellow at the think tank Observer Research Foundation, told DW.
The Karnataka election was fought on an array of regional and national-level issues ranging from struggling economic growth to religious tensions and agrarian distress.
Misra also said that the election results in Karnataka will inescapably have a direct impact on the next general elections that are scheduled to take place around May 2019 when Modi seeks a second term.
Highlighting the possibility that the ruling party might bring forward parliamentary polls to December 2018, when three other states go to the polls, Misra said that this will also force anti-Modi parties nationwide to cobble together pre-poll agreements.
"Yes, a pre-poll broad electoral alliance is underway and the Congress' defeat in Karnataka and its readiness to offer unconditional support to the JD(S) to form the government has prepared the ground for such an alliance. Undoubtedly, the alliance, if it comes through, is going to be very effective," said Misra.
Many astute political experts believe that an early election could be on the cards. Madhavan Raghavendran, a political observer and professor of sociology, told DW that Modi can also draw comfort from the fact that his own anti-incumbency hasn't significantly affected the BJP's vote share. This would augur well for the BJP in the next parliamentary election and is a warning bell for Congress that any discontent with Modi's regime need not automatically translate into votes for their party.
"Anything less than a smooth working arrangement with JD(S) in the coming weeks will only reinforce the notion that Congress is incapable of getting its act together even when numbers pan out in their favor. This may also impact upon any proposed Congress-led grand alliance in future to counter the might of BJP."

Q: How to handle field named as keywords in jasmin I'm writing a compiler for a subset of java, and I'm almost done. The one thing I have problems with is handling classes, fields and method that are named like jasmin-keywords.
For example:
class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
    int a;
    a = new pop().run();
}
}

class pop {

    int lcmp;
    int stack;
    int isub;
    int iload_0;

    public int run() {
        int aaload;
        lcmp = 1;
        aaload = lcmp;
        return aaload;
    }

    public int swap() {
        return 0;
    }

    public int iload_0() {
        int istore;
        boolean ret;
        return 0;
    }
}

Which would compile into jasmin like this:
.source evul_names.java
.class Test
.super java/lang/Object
.method public <init>()V
    aload_0
    invokespecial java/lang/Object/<init>()V
    return
.end method

.method public static main([Ljava/lang/String;)V
.limit locals 2
.limit stack 2
.var 0 is a I
.line 4
    new pop
    dup
    invokespecial pop/<init>()V
    invokevirtual pop/run()I
    istore_0 ; a
    return
.end method

.source evul_names.java
.class pop
.super java/lang/Object

.field public lcmp I
.field public stack I
.field public isub I
.field public iload_0 I

.method public <init>()V
    aload_0
    invokespecial java/lang/Object/<init>()V
    return
.end method

.method public run()I
.limit locals 3
.limit stack 2
.line 15
.var 0 is <this> Lpop;
.var 1 is aaload I
.line 17
    iconst_1
    aload_0 ; this
    swap
    putfield pop/lcmp I
.line 18
    aload_0 ; this
    getfield pop/lcmp I
    istore_1 ; aaload
.line 19
    iload_1 ; aaload
    ireturn
.end method

.method public swap()I
.limit locals 2
.limit stack 1
.line 22
.var 0 is <this> Lpop;
.line 23
    iconst_0
    ireturn
.end method

.method public iload_0()I
.limit locals 4
.limit stack 1
.line 26
.var 0 is <this> Lpop;
.var 1 is istore I
.var 2 is ret Z
.line 29
    iconst_0
    ireturn
.end method

The problem is the .class and .field directives, they cause compile error if the name is a keyword. I have tried putting both single quotes and double quotes around them; using single quotes the jasmin assembles into class files, but then one get verify error (and it seems like it actually includes the quotation in the name, which is suboptimal). Using double quotes it doesn't compile at all.
Is there any solution at all to this, or is it impossible to do this in jasmin?

A: After trying for hours I decided to patch jasmin. When I had submitted the patch I realised that the code in the repo wasn't the latest version. Then after getting the latest version of the code I realised the feature I had implemented already existed, but for some reason the 2.4 in debian did not have that, but the 2.4 from sourceforge had.

'Changed Forever': Florida Panhandle devastated by Michael
By JAY REEVES and BRENDAN FARRINGTONOctober 12, 2018 GMT

PANAMA CITY, Fla. (AP) — The devastation inflicted by Hurricane Michael came into focus Thursday with rows upon rows of homes found smashed to pieces, and rescue crews struggling to enter stricken areas in hopes of accounting for hundreds of people who may have stayed behind.
At least three deaths were blamed on Michael, the most powerful hurricane to hit the continental U.S. in over 50 years, and it wasn't done yet: Though reduced to a tropical storm, it brought flash flooding to North Carolina and Virginia, soaking areas still recovering from Hurricane Florence.
Under a clear blue sky, families living along the Florida Panhandle emerged from shelters and hotels to a perilous landscape of shattered homes and shopping centers, wailing sirens and hovering helicopters.
Gov. Rick Scott said the Panhandle awoke to "unimaginable destruction."
"So many lives have been changed forever. So many families have lost everything," he said.
The full extent of Michael's fury was only slowly becoming clear, with some of the hardest-hit areas difficult to reach with roads blocked by debris or water. An 80-mile (130-kilometer) stretch of Interstate 10, the main east-west route, was closed.
Video from a drone revealed some of the worst damage in Mexico Beach, where the hurricane crashed ashore Wednesday as a Category 4 monster with 155 mph (250 kph) winds and a storm surge of 9 feet (2.7 meters).
Entire blocks of homes near the beach were obliterated, leaving concrete slabs in the sand. Rows and rows of other homes were rendered piles of splintered lumber. Entire roofs were torn away in the town of about 1,000 people, now a scene of utter devastation.
State officials said 285 people in Mexico Beach had defied a mandatory evacuation order ahead of Michael. More than 375,000 people up and down the Gulf Coast were ordered or urged to clear out as Michael closed in. But emergency authorities lamented that many ignored the warnings.
National Guard troops made their way into the ground-zero town and found 20 survivors Wednesday night, and more rescue crews arrived Thursday. But the fate of many residents was unknown.
Mishelle McPherson and her ex-husband searched for the elderly mother of a friend. The woman lived in a small cinderblock house about 150 yards (meters) from the Gulf and thought she would be OK. The home was found smashed, with no sign of the woman.
"Do you think her body would be here? Do you think it would have floated away?" McPherson asked.
Linda Marquardt, 67, rode out the storm with her husband at their home in Mexico Beach. When the house filled with storm surge water, they fled upstairs. "All of my furniture was floating," she said. "″A river just started coming down the road. It was awful, and now there's just nothing left."
As thousands of National Guard troops, law enforcement officers and medical teams spread out, the governor pleaded with people in the devastated areas to stay away because of hazards such as fallen trees and power lines.
"I know you just want to go home. You want to check on things and begin the recovery process," Scott said. But "we have to make sure things are safe."
More than 900,000 homes and businesses in Florida, Alabama, Georgia and the Carolinas were without power.
The Coast Guard said it rescued at least 27 people before and after the hurricane's landfall, mostly from coastal homes. Nine people had to be rescued by helicopter from a bathroom of a home in hard-hit Panama City after their roof collapsed, Petty Officer 3rd Class Ronald Hodges said.
In Panama City, most homes were still standing, but no property was left undamaged. Downed power lines and twisted street signs lay all around. Roofs had been peeled off. Aluminum siding was shredded and homes were split by fallen trees. Hundreds of cars had broken windows. Pine trees were stripped and snapped off about 20 feet (7 meters) high.
In neighboring Panama City Beach, Bay County Sheriff Tommy Ford reported widespread looting of homes and businesses. He imposed a curfew and asked for 50 members of the National Guard for protection.
The hurricane also damaged hospitals and nursing homes in the Panama City area, and officials worked to evacuate hundreds of patients. The damage at Bay Medical Sacred Heart included blown-out windows and a cracked exterior wall though no patients were hurt.
The state mental hospital in Chattahoochee, which has a section for the criminally insane, was cut off by land, and food and supplies were being flown in, authorities said. All phone communicaiton was cut off to the complex of nearly 1,000 residents and more than 300 staff, leaving emergency radios as their only link out.
A man outside Tallahassee, Florida, was killed by a falling tree, and an 11-year-old girl in Georgia died when the winds picked up a carport and dropped it on her home. One of the carport's legs punctured the roof and hit her in the head. A driver in North Carolina was killed when a tree fell on his car.
As the storm charged north, it spun off possible tornadoes and downed power lines and trees in Georgia. Forecasters said it could drop up to 7 inches (18 centimeters) of rain over the Carolinas and Virginia before pushing out to sea in coming hours. Street flooding was reported in Roanoke and other southwestern Virginia cities that reported motorists caught in flooding had to be rescued.
In North Carolina's mountains, drivers also had to be plucked from cars in high water. Michael's winds also toppled trees and power lines, leaving hundreds of thousands without power and flash flooding also was reported in North Carolina's two largest cities, Charlotte and Raleigh.
Forecasters said Michael was still a potent tropical storm Thursday evening, centered about 5 miles (8 kilometers) northwest of Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina, and packing top sustained winds of 50 mph (80 kph). It was racing to the northeast at 24 mph (39 kph) amid warnings it could spread damaging winds and more flash flooding in the region before moving offshore.
Associated Press writers Tamara Lush in St. Petersburg, Florida; Gary Fineout in Tallahassee, Florida; Terry Spencer in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Jennifer Kay and Freida Frisaro in Miami; Brendan Farrington in St. Marks, Florida; Russ Bynum in Keaton Beach, Florida; Jonathan Drew in Raleigh, North Carolina, and Seth Borenstein in Kensington, Maryland, contributed to this story.

"The Raffles Relics" is a short story by E. W. Hornung, and features the gentleman thief A. J. Raffles, and his companion and biographer, Bunny Manders. The story was published in September 1905 by Pall Mall Magazine in London. The story was also included as the eighth story in the collection A Thief in the Night, published by Chatto & Windus in London, and Charles Scribner's Sons in New York, both in 1905.

Plot

It is December 1899, at which time the reputations of Raffles and Bunny are ruined and they are secretly living in Ham Common. They read in a magazine about the so-called Raffles Relics on display at the Black Museum at Scotland Yard. Excited, Raffles passive-aggressively persuades Bunny, now a journalist, to get a journalist's pass for two to visit the museum.

They enter the museum without incident. An enthusiastic young clerk arrives to give them a tour, though he is less knowledgeable than Raffles and Bunny on the museum's inventory, which includes the infamous cigarette box of two criminals who were never caught. Eventually, the clerk shows them the Raffles Relics, taken from Raffles's Albany rooms after his apparent death. He points out several objects, including Raffles's old revolver, which Raffles had once fired at a man on a roof and had once hidden a pearl inside of, the rope-ladder and telescope walking-stick he used at the house of Lord Thornaby, the velvet bag whose use is unknown, the life-preserver that Bunny had once hit Raffles with, and Raffles's chest. The clerk speaks poorly of Raffles's partner, to Bunny's chagrin.

A well-known detective and two other guests also browse the museum. Raffles, wary of the detective, tells Bunny to hide his face in some photographs; Bunny does so, until he realizes that Raffles has vanished. Irritated, he nonetheless tells the clerk that Raffles had to catch a train. Bunny lingers until the detective's party leaves, then tips the clerk and leaves. He searches for Raffles for four hours, in vain. At home, he anxiously waits hours for Raffles.

Bunny wakes abruptly in the morning to see Raffles, and the entire collection of Raffles Relics, except for the chest. Raffles had hid himself in the chest, using its secret side door. He had replaced his relics with items from other collections, so that the robbery will not be noticed for weeks. Raffles wonders about putting his relics to use again, but also speaks prophetically about the competing excitement that the ongoing war might soon offer them.

Adaptations

BBC Radio adapted the story into the first half of the sixteenth episode of its Raffles radio drama, "The Raffles Relics", which first aired on 20 August 1992. The drama features Jeremy Clyde as Raffles and Michael Cochrane as Bunny. The episode faithfully follows the plot of the original story, with a minor change:
 In the drama, the stealing of the Raffles Relics is their first Ham Common crime, rather than their last. In the episode, Raffles and Bunny use the stolen items to carry out the burglary in "The Wrong House".

The Cubes released a 7-inch EP "Spaceheart" in 1979 followed by a split album with The Americatz in 1981. The band was also featured on "Detroit Defaces the 80s" and "Mandatory Music" compilations. All the released from The Cubes were on the Tremor Records label.
While in the band, and attending Wayne State University, Striho also worked at WDET helping out around the station as well as guest hosting programs like "Radios in Motion", a show dedicated to new wave/punk music.
The Cubes often played with Sonic's Rendezvous Band. Striho says that's where she met Patti Smith, but they wouldn't be close until the 1990s when they went on to share the stage together.
Striho left the band in 1981 and was replaced by Tom Rossiter on vocals & keyboards. Striho went on to form Rough Cut, later renamed Detroit Energy Asylum following a lawsuit with an L.A. area group of the same name but with a different spelling. Striho continues to make music, performing locally and internationally.
Drummer Tony Bojanic is a member of The Seatbelts.

Greg upshur says:
Carolyn also sang backup on a Seatbelts recording.
Richard Pedretti-Allen says:
The Cubes did not break up when Striho left. Tom Rossiter joined on keyboards and vocals and they took on more of a new wave sound by replacing Striho's Farfisa organ with Rossiter's synthesizer. This version of The Cubes (sometimes billed as "The New Cubes") were the ones who shared the LP with The Americatz.

often referred to as seagulls, are seabirds of the family Laridae in the suborder Lari.
They are most closely related to the terns (family Sternidae) and only distantly related to auks, skimmers, and more distantly to the waders. Until the 21st century, most gulls were placed in the genus Larus, but this arrangement is now known to be polyphyletic, leading to the resurrection of several genera. An older name for gulls is mew, cognate with German Möwe, Danish måge, Dutch meeuw, and French mouette; this term can still be found in certain regional dialects.


Blood Healing, book two of The Healers of Meligna, delves into the intrigue and insanity of the Queen's court. Adenine is placed in the inner circle of the court with the favored Healers and is faced with her first love, discrimination for her birthplace, and the truly wicked plans the Queens have for Meligna, its people, and the surrounding countries.
The story is woven flawlessly and Ms. Colt continues an insanely fun and multi-plotted fantasy series. Adenine is an amazingly plucky and real character that continues to survive the shocking life she is thrust into. She is resilient and her discovery will literally rewrite history. Readers will enjoy the sudden change in store for Healers and the upcoming battles and mysteries that Adenine will have to face.
Readers should be warned that some squeamish topics arise in the book and may be difficult for some to read. (For example, girls become Healers at puberty and some are made to heal at that young age through sleeping with the sick or wounded. This conflict is resolved in book two.) The author handles these topics well and it's bearable and fits within the cultural world she has created and Adenine lives in.
I look forward to continuing the series and can't wait to see Adenine get older and continue changing the world around her one small step at a time.
Kylie J. Colt lives on the west coast of Australia in the sprawling city of Perth and has been writing for three years. Her favourite writers are Kristin Cashore, Robin Hobb, Trudi Canavan and Maria V. Snyder. She has an honours degree in psychology and counselling, enjoys road trips, gaming (Skyrim/Civilisation/Assassin's Creed), music festivals (electronica), playing pool, yoga, bushwalking, and gobbles up anything fantasy-related. Her favourite fantasy shows include Game of Thrones and Trueblood, and she is currently reading Robin Hobb's Blood of Dragons.


Bill Text - SB-24 California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013: joint powers authority: employees.
An act to amend Section 7522.02 of the Government Code, relating to public employees' retirement.
SB 24, Hill. California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013: joint powers authority: employees.
The California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA) requires a public retirement system, as defined, to modify its plan or plans to comply with the act and, among other provisions, establishes new retirement formulas that may not be exceeded by a public employer offering a defined benefit pension plan for employees first hired on or after January 1, 2013. Existing law, the Joint Exercise of Powers Act, generally authorizes 2 or more public agencies, by agreement, to jointly exercise any common power, which may include hiring employees and establishing retirement systems. PEPRA authorizes a joint powers authority formed by the Cities of Brea and Fullerton on or after January 1, 2013, to provide its employees the defined benefit plan or formula that those employees received from their respective employers prior to the exercise of a common power, to which the employee is associated, by the joint powers authority to any employee of specified cities who is not a new member and subsequently is employed by the joint powers authority within 180 days of the city providing for the exercise of a common power, to which the employee was associated, by the joint powers authority.
This bill would authorize a joint powers authority formed by the Belmont Fire Protection District, the Estero Municipal Improvement District, and the City of San Mateo on or after January 1, 2013, to provide employees who are not new members under PEPRA with the defined benefit plan or formula that was received by those employees from their respective employers on December 31, 2012, if they are employed by the joint powers authority within 180 days of the agency providing for the exercise of a common power, to which the employee was associated, by the joint powers authority. The bill would prohibit the formation of a joint powers authority on or after January 1, 2013, in a manner that would exempt a new employee or a new member from the requirements of PEPRA.
This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the Belmont Fire Protection District, the Estero Municipal Improvement District, and the City of San Mateo.
The Legislature finds and declares that a special law is necessary and that a general law cannot be made applicable within the meaning of Section 16 of Article IV of the California Constitution because of the need to clarify the benefit eligibility rules under the California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013 and maintain the integrity of that act and further its purpose.

Voice and the Mobile Consumer
SAN FRANCISCO —"What was the first thing you ever typed into a computer?" asked Mike McCue on Thursday during his SpeechTEK West 2007 keynote address, Bringing Voice to the Mobile Consumer. McCue, chief executive officer and founder of Tellme Networks, recalls his first computer keystroke experience: He was in 10th grade, sitting in his high school computer lab. It was 1983. He typed, "Can you talk?" The computer unapologetically responded "INCORRECT STATEMENT."
His interest in speech technology at such an early age proved beneficial to his company today. Tellme Networks is an open standards telephone platform provider that enables telephones, through the use of voice commands, to communicate with computers to fetch Internet data. Clearly, the speech technology industry has come a long way since McCue's high school days. "Today's phone has a 130-megahertz processor, 4 megabytes of RAM, and 1 gigabyte of storage. Apple's iPhone will have 4 or 8 gigabytes of storage. That's just crying out for a speech interface," he said.
Now that consumer mobile hardware is robust enough to handle speech applications and mobile cell phone usage is growing exponentially, McCue expects to see three major trends: the increased usage of speech as a service, voice plus visual, and find and transact capabilities.
"Speech should be provided as a network service," McCue said. Tellme Networks, founded in 1999, does exactly this. The company's platform handles business search on 411 (nearly 35 percent of all 411 calls in the United States), information search on 1-800-555-TELL, and customer service and ordering for companies such as Merrill Lynch, E*TRADE, and American Airlines. In the network service model, similar to utility bills, company costs fluctuate with usage. "If you have call traffic that increases or decreases you only pay for what you use," McCue said. All the while, he added that companies get carrier grade security, reliability, and burstability (the ability to handle sudden bursts in call volumes).
The next major trend, according to McCue, will be developments in technologies that drive voice plus visual capabilities. For example, a Cardinals baseball fan could press a button on his cell phone and say "Cardinals" and get a visual display of the Cardinals' score. Or, someone can say "hardware" and get a list of all hardware stores in the area and a map to the desired store. This capability is currently available on Motorola's MOTOSLVR and MOTORAZR cell phones. "Voice and visual will really put speech recognition into a whole new realm," he said. McCue added that it will take time for handset makers and carriers to standardize their equipment for mass consumption, "but [the technology is] becoming faster, more open, and more standardized."
The third trend, find and transact, will enable people to conduct research over their phones. "When you're on the phone it's not good enough to just get a listing. You need to get the task done. That's going to be an important trend moving forward," he said. For example, find and transact capabilities enable consumers to find a specific movie, learn where it's playing and show times, and purchase tickets.
Thanks to the efforts of people like McCue, some day he'll be able to ask his computer, "Can you talk? And, it will say, Yes, Mike. What do you want to do? We're getting closer to that day," he said.

Great to hear all worked out. I thought it was a lost cause as well, but they are really simple devices.
You can e-mail me at kwbnetmail@yahoo.com. I would be happy to walk you through the process. If you are thinking of doing you will want to order the shaft and the bearings. Wahoo is the only place you can get the shaft from, but the bearings can be bought in most bearings sites online.

The year 2015 proved to be one of celebration for the fans of the Revered Saint Dr. Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Insan. The debut venture, MSG – The Messenger, received a phenomenal response. Next, the second cinematic outing, MSG 2 – The Messenger went on to complete more than 200 successful days at the box office, breaking all records and grossing 507 crores.
Two new films by a debutant donning several hats of a writer, direcor, actor, art director, singer, lyricist etc is unheard of! And an award on the second film is no mean feat.
On 24th April, the Saint was honoured with the esteemed Dadasaheb Phalke Film Foundation Award, 2016. He received the award in not one or two, but three different categories – for the most popular Actor, Director and Writer of the year at the Tulip Hotel on Juhu Tara Road.
The jury comprised of highly distinguished and acclaimed personalities of the film industry like Anees Bazmee, Saroj Khan, Ismail Darbar, Udit Narayan, Anup Jalota and Manoj Desai.
After the Revered Saint made an announcement on Twitter – "Good news 4 all of U! Honored wid Dadasaheb Phalke Film Foundation Award for most popular Actor, Director&Writer. #MSGDedicatedAwardToGuruji" – the hashtag used by him caught on and, in no time, was trending worldwide.
The Revered Saint addressed the highly enthusiastic crowd who had come to receive him at Sirsa, and expressed satisfaction that the idea of facilitating social change through the medium of cinema is now establishing itself.
Making an appeal to the mainstream media, he asked the film industry to use cinema as a vehicle for social reform, and to avoid propagating questionable morals for commercial gains. Social awakening could also translate into commercial gains as seen by the massive success of MSG 2.
Speaking to the media after winning the prestigious award, the Revered Saint said that initially his films were warmly-received by crores of fans and they were now finding resonance with the film industry as well.
He declared that his principal aim was to bring the society together through the propagation of humanity. He has been striving relentlessly to achieve this aim through all kinds of efforts ranging from spiritual congregations, music concerts to film-making.
He said that, in the current times, the interest of the youth leans mainly towards cinema. Keeping this interest in mind, he decided to reach out to them differently. He felt it is best to motivate people in ways that they can connect with.
The fact that crores of people have given up intoxicants of all kinds, and huge businesses have moved out of the sector, is evidence that his methods are working.. The number of people who attended the spiritual congregations every week have gone up by about 6 times since the release of the films. While interacting with the media, he reiterated that though he was a filmmaker and also an actor now, his real identity and calling was that of a saint.
When asked about the possibility of securing a nation-wide prohibition, the Revered Saint hoped that steps would be taken in the direction. He also assured that if water was used and disbursed in a proper way, the production of herbal and allopathic medication could bring a lot more profits and affect the economy more positively as compared to the liquor industry.
The Revered Saint has not only benefited from the medium of film-making but also made returns to it. The Dera Sacha Sauda has now established a state-of-the-art VFX hall, a shooting hall, and an audio studio. The intention is to facilitate people making films in that part of the country so that they do not have to incur additional costs in having to travel to Mumbai.
Additionally, lecturers have been invited to the schools established by the Dera so that students with an interest in VFX can learn the subject and achieve proficiency in the same.
The initiation of a new social welfare movement after every achievement is a legacy of the Dera. To this end, the Revered Saint announced that a new welfare movement would be initiated on 29th April during the spiritual congregation.
The upcoming cinematic venture, Online Gurukul, is set to be bigger and better than both the preceding movies. This time, an effort is being made to present the teachings imparted by Vedas and old scriptures. This film will see the Rockstar Saint essaying the roles of not one or two, but six different characters.
The VFX of the film are being done by the company that previously did the VFX for films like Lord of the Rings and Spiderman. Also the choreography of the songs has been taken up be ace choreographer Ganesh Acharya.
With this announcement, his fans, the industry and cinema-goers in general are also eagerly looking forward to see in what way Online Gurukul touches and transforms society.


I love this photo of Austin. He was being so brave at this pool. It had a really shallow area that he could walk without his head being anywhere near going under. He even taught himslef how to swim while there. And along with that lack of fear came lot's of jumping and cannonballs. I found this fabulous sketch over at Sketchy Thursdays!


NEW YORK, NY, October 31, 2000 -- Droplet Inc., the Internet technology infrastructure company, has set the stage for mass adoption of its Droplets applications by allowing developers and programmers to download its software developer kit (SDK) free of charge.
By providing application program interface documentation (API), a full suite of tutorials, as well as samples, source code, and technical support, the SDK is the building block for the production of powerful Web applications. The Droplet Inc. technology provides and supports the framework for developers to create and deploy these true "Net-native" applications.
"Currently, developers and businesses are searching for a solution that enhances user experience online. Droplets bring together the universal accessibility of the Web and the rich user experience and immediacy that we are all used to with desktop software," said Philip Brittan, president and CEO of Droplet Inc. "Droplets bridge the gap between these two worlds we live in today."
Droplets applications can be delivered as part of a Web page, dragged by the end user out of the browser and dropped onto the PC desktop, where they continue to be accessed like local software.
In addition, Droplets feature an intuitive user experience with ten times the responsiveness of standard Web technologies. Droplets require low bandwidth and also feature high security and massive scalability.
The Droplets SDK provides an object-oriented GUI toolkit for developing applications. The SDK completely hides the complexities of network communication from the application developer. Thus, writing a Droplets application is like writing an application with any other GUI toolkit, even though the user interface of the application runs on a remote machine. In addition, rather than forcing the developer to learn a new GUI library from scratch, Droplets models many of its concepts, most notably its approach to component layout, after Java AWT (Abstract Windowing Toolkit) and Swing. These are well-designed class libraries that are familiar to many of today's software developers. Droplet Inc. pays attention to the design and flexibility of its software and employs well-known, object-oriented design patterns. Therefore, developers familiar with the object-oriented paradigm can expect a logical, understandable, flexible class library to help them attain maximum productivity in a short period of time.
The Droplets SDK can be downloaded at www.droplets.com/scripts/SDK.asp. Developers can get answers to questions and provide feedback via sdk@droplets.com.
The company licenses its unique patent-pending technology for businesses to create and deploy Droplets, and it licenses various ready-made Droplets applications and solutions to businesses. Droplets benefit marketers and businesses by providing them with an open, direct channel to consumers by providing a branded icon to the application on the PC desktop.

Solid contract with customer might firm up auto body shop's ability to be paid
By John Huetter on December 20, 2018
Properly establishing a contractual relationship with a customer can strengthen a collision repairer's ability to collect payment for its work, based on a presentation this fall by attorney Erica Eversman.
It seems so obvious, but some shops and insurers have a hard time wrapping their heads around the idea that the vehicle owner is actually the collision repairer's customer.
The customer is requesting your services and owes you for your labor. The insurer in turn owes the customer for the cost to cover the loss. (Unless the insurer "elects to repair" and actually serves as a contractor making repair decisions and delivering a fixed car to the customer. They'll never do this, as it sticks the carrier with liability for improper work, according to Eversman.)
Eversman during an Oct. 31 SCRS Repairer Driven Education talk offered a series of sample documents which would formalize and solidify the shop-customer relationship — and counteract some insurer practices. They were slated to be posted on her Vehicle Information Services website, she said then.
(Note: Eversman stressed that the educational session was not intended as legal advice, only as ideas, and the same applies to this coverage of the talk. Anything you see here and the actual sample documents should be modified in consultation with a qualified state-licensed attorney to fit the laws of your state.)
Perhaps the most critical among them was the repair contract and authorization.
"Too many people" still rely on a handshake and oral agreement, according to Eversman. Some repairers say they have a good authorization — which won't necessarily suffice, she said.
A shop needs a good contract with a customer, Eversman said.
You and the customer need to know what you will provide, she said. "You need to know that they're gonna pay you," and they also need to know that, she said.
"That is what a contract is: offer, acceptance, consideration. 'I will do this for you in exchange for that from you.'"
Both parties agree, and the contract is established.
Eversman's sample document makes it clear that it indeed a contract and contains a line to confirm that the repairer's customer has the authority to authorize the repairs, which she said was done in situations like a lease or an out-of-state college kid authorizing repairs on what is still technically her parent's car.
Eversman said the sample contract presented at the Oct. 31 SEMA talk presumed the customer had already agreed to the repair. She said she planned to create a document addressing situations where a customer just wanted a cost estimate, which Eversman noted was likely to require disassembly.
Section 2 of the contract states "'thou shalt pay me'" or the car won't be returned and establishes that the customer is the one who owes the shop, according to Eversman.
Another section of note makes it clear that the repairer has no obligation to the insurer. "This is critical," Eversman said.
It states that any communications with insurers are a "courtesy" and that the shop "does not accept any insurer's estimate as the cost of repair or method of repair."
Eversman said this clause existed in part to deal with how insurers have muddled the issue. She told the audience she repeatedly has had to beat it into judges and lawyers that "the insurer has no right" in a collision repair unless the carrier formally elects to repair.
"They just don't get it," she said. Insurers have insinuated themselves so much into the repair process that their role gets misperceived. She recalled a deceptive trade practice case she brought against Progressive for claiming it guaranteed a repair.
The consumer in this section even initials an additional statement acknowledging the shop's conducting a safe and proper repair "may involve using better parts or safer repair techniques than those for which my insurer or a responsible third party may reimburse me." The paragraph bolds language in which the customer agrees they're financially responsible for the final bill regardless of what the insurer will or won't pay.
The document also includes a statement that the shop has a lien against the car until their bill is paid. It also demands the customer initial a statement that the vehicle can't have ownership transferred to anyone, including an insurer declaring a total loss, until the bill is paid.
Eversman said she added the title transfer wording because one carrier once attempted to use the concept of replevin, which she joked she hadn't heard since Year One of law school.
Replevin involves demanding one's possessions be returned, according to Eversman. The insurer had attempted to argue that as the customer had transferred the title of a totaled car to the insurer, the shop couldn't hold what was now the carrier's property, she said. Nor did the carrier owe for the customer's repair bill, it argued.
The new language would make any attempt to transfer title prior to payment breach of contract — and an insurer attempting to pursue that option would be tortiously interfering with a contract, Eversman said.
Another section discussed the shop's right to "Expectancy Damages," which places the customer on the hook for the shop having "lost the opportunity to accept other repair contracts and perform other repairs by designating personnel and dedicating resources to the preparation for and engagement of the repair of the Vehicle."
Basically, by agreeing to fix the customer's car, the shop has passed up the chance to do a repair for someone else, according to Eversman. Therefore, the repairer receives the full amount it specified on the damage analysis and all other charges it expected to receive if the customer takes the car somewhere else, "even if persuaded to breach by a third party privileged to interfere with a contract between Customer and Repair Facility."
"This is designed to give you strength," Eversman said, noting that "judges love this stuff" because of its clarity.
It would be easy to take such a contract to an attorney and pursue damages if breached by the consumer under the insurer's instruction, she said.

A. Dr William C Gardener will completely evaluate the extent and severity of fractured and broken teeth with visual examination. Thus, there are special tests before taking informed consent from you regarding the best treatment procedure.
• Your dentist will take care of the cracks on the basis of severity of symptoms as well as on the position of tooth's nerves. Tooth fillings work well for general cracks. If a fragmennt breaks and is available, bonding resin cements can work well to glue it back on the tooth. Full coverage crowns are sometimes necessary and good. If there is damage to the tooth nerves it works well.
• Dental veneering helps in cases of complete front surface breakdown of your teeth.
Q. WHAT ARE THE VARIOUS TOOTH REPLACING OPTIONS?


In a diversity of habitats, from lowland hardwoods, especially in the southern part of the state, to hemlock-white pine-northern hardwoods forest of the north, becoming especially common in the western Upper Peninsula. As is true of the other birches, the pistillate scales and bark of B. alleghaniensis are variable. Very old trees, as in virgin stands in the Upper Peninsula, may have very furrowed or checkered dark bark. Trees in swamps of the southern Lower Peninsula may have dark brown or blackish bark, which peels very little if at all; such trees hardly resemble the widespread typical yellow birch with light yellow-brown, peeling bark, and have sometimes been erroneously referred to B. lenta (which differs in having smaller, nearly or quite glabrous and less densely ciliate scales in the pistillate aments). Betula lenta and B. alleghaniensis both have a characteristic odor and flavor of wintergreen in the crushed bark of young twigs. Betula nigra, river birch, lacks the wintergreen flavor and has leaves pale beneath with margins both toothed and undulate or shallowly lobed; the fruit ripens in late spring or early summer, with wings narrower than the body; the bark is pinkish, curly and tattered-looking, and the number of leaf veins is less than in B. alleghaniensis. Betula nigra grows in wet places and is known in northwestern Indiana; it should be sought in southern Michigan, where it is sometimes planted but seems never to spread.
The leaves on short lateral shoots are usually in pairs, whereas in B. papyrifera they are usually in 3's. However, hybrids with B. papyrifera may be less rare than usually supposed; they have short shoots with both 3 and 2 leaves per shoot. Hybrids with B. pumila are described under that species. The wood of yellow birch is one of the most valuable timbers in Michigan. It is strong and close-grained, polishes well, and is of special importance in furniture and veneers.

Foregone: A Novel (Hardcover)
By Russell Banks
A searing novel about memory, abandonment, and betrayal from the acclaimed and bestselling Russell Banks
At the center of Foregone is famed Canadian American leftist documentary filmmaker Leonard Fife, one of sixty thousand draft evaders and deserters who fled to Canada to avoid serving in Vietnam. Fife, now in his late seventies, is dying of cancer in Montreal and has agreed to a final interview in which he is determined to bare all his secrets at last, to demythologize his mythologized life. The interview is filmed by his acolyte and ex–star student, Malcolm MacLeod, in the presence of Fife's wife and alongside Malcolm's producer, cinematographer, and sound technician, all of whom have long admired Fife but who must now absorb the meaning of his astonishing, dark confession.
Imaginatively structured around Fife's secret memories and alternating between the experiences of the characters who are filming his confession, the novel challenges our assumptions and understanding about a significant lost chapter in American history and the nature of memory itself. Russell Banks gives us a daring and resonant work about the scope of one man's mysterious life, revealed through the fragments of his recovered past.
Russell Banks, twice a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, is one of America's most prestigious fiction writers, a past president of the International Parliament of Writers, and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters. His work has been translated into twenty languages and has received numerous prizes and awards, including the Common Wealth Award for Literature. He lives in upstate New York and Miami, Florida.
"Strikingly effective. . . . Banks explores aging, memory, and reputation in thoughtful and touching ways. . . . A challenging, risk-taking work marked by a wry and compassionate intelligence."
"Banks, a conduit for the confounded and the unlucky, a writer acutely attuned to place and ambiance, is at his most magnetic and provocative in this portrait of a celebrated documentary filmmaker on the brink of death. . . . In this masterful depiction of a psyche under siege by disease, age, and guilt, Banks considers with profound intent the verity of memory, the mercurial nature of the self, and how little we actually know about ourselves and others. . . . [For] all lovers of richly psychological and ethical fiction."
— Booklist (starred review)
"Russell Banks, as cinematographer, is known to move in close. Foregone focuses his sharp eye on the feints and fictions amid life's 'facts,' as he reveals his fascinatingly fallible character, Fife, whose personal life has been contextualized by history. As we zig-zag through the character's past and present, it becomes apparent that the writer is simultaneously, and subtly, demonstrating the act of writing fiction. Fife is aptly named; he's an instrument piercing the soundtrack we call life, as the drummer marches on."
— Ann Beattie
"Russell Banks is, word for word, idea for idea, one of the great American novelists. Foregone is a book about not coming to a conclusion. Banks presents us with a series of mirrors, some of them broken, some of them intact, and all of them wildly reflective of our times. It is a book about the shifting shapes of memory and the chimerical nature of our lives."
— Colum McCann
"Foregone is a subtle meditation on a life composed of half-forgotten impulses and their endless consequences, misapprehensions of others that are accepted and exploited almost passively, a minor heroism that is only enhanced by demurral. In the rages of a sick old man profound questions arise—what is a life? A self? And what is lost when truth destroys the fabrications that sustain other lives?"

(a) $13,750,000 the first year and $13,750,000 the second year are for pollution reduction and restoration grants to local government units and joint powers organizations of local government units to protect surface water and drinking water; to keep water on the land; to protect, enhance, and restore water quality in lakes, rivers, and streams; and to protect groundwater and drinking water, including feedlot water quality and subsurface sewage treatment system (SSTS) projects and stream bank, stream channel, and shoreline restoration projects. The projects must be of long-lasting public benefit, include a match, and be consistent with TMDL implementation plans or local water management plans.
This project has resulted in the following pollution reduction estimates: 552 lbs/yr phosphorus, 489 tons/yr sediment (TSS), 868 tons/yr soil loss reduction.
The Knife River is a state protected water and a Designated Trout Stream. It is nationally known as a prime fresh-water steelhead fishery and is managed as a cold-water trout fishery for native species including brook trout. The Knife River is characterized by steep gradients, multiple water-falls and cascades, tea-colored water, and remnant old-growth forest cover types including white pine, Norway pine and white cedar.
For all its attributes, the Knife River does not meet water quality standards for sediments and turbidity. This project will restore two severely eroding streambank sites along the river identified as producing the greatest sediment loads of the entire river system.
The benefits from a stable channel in this location include reduced sediment downstream, less sediment pollution into Lake Superior and protection of native riparian plant communities. Toe wood combined with rock stream vanes will decrease bluff erosion and create beneficial fisheries habitat through the introduction of much needed woody debris.
Both project sites will be fully restored and stabilized with state-of-the-art engineering practices that have been successfully implemented on North Shore streams. Once the sites are fully restored, sediment loading to the Knife River will be reduced by 17 percent.

I looked at the witness statements and it doesn't seem like Paulus was ever asked if he had met Natalee at the casino. Paulus was present at Joran's first statement athough no copies appear to have survived, and pages are missing from the PVDS interviews.
Spock.. doesn't one of Paulus' PV's go like page 1 - page 2 - page 3 missing page 4???????
Yep, it's a mess, and when he was investigated as a suspect his answers are so ambigious as to be unbeliveable and unusable.
I do recall a statement from Paulus somewhere where he said he had never met the girl. It may have come from an interview and not from a police statement. Can anyone find him saying that?
Joran was only about 14 yrs old in this pic. I'm sure his foot has grown since then.
I would guess that a size 14 shoe would be VERY hard to get in Aruba without special ordering it, especially if you want it in a specific style. I wear a 13 and have a hard time finding shoes in the style I want and I live not too far out of Detroit! I often have to settle for shoes that dont fit perfectly or styles that I dont exactly want.
Thanks for the holiday avi CBB!!! Ange told me you had a crotch rocket waiting for me in the lounge, lol!!!
I hate to say this... but my first thought when I saw that picture was ~'he looks like Marmaduke in that picture'.
Yep. They didn't wanna know, Spock. Those missing pages in PVDS' statement are very suspicious.
LOL Rob. Same blockhead. You could hammer horseshoes on that flat spot.
You may be right, so hard to tell from a picture. The thing is, its really not that important to figure out his shoe size, this is something that can easily be confirmed when the time comes for trial or whatever. Its not like his foot is going to shrink or anything. Its probably pretty much done growing too I would guess.


I have a problem with my email list messages being rejected by remote hosts.
Initially, I thought this might be an SPF issue and updated our SPF record in the DNS. No change.
Perhaps it was the way the headers appeared.
with ESMTP id 13607978; Sat, 21 Mar 2009 17:51:36 -0400"
Editing the hosts file to put the server IP and name in the first line did not change the behavior.
with ESMTP id 13608028; Sat, 21 Mar 2009 18:12:55 -0400"
I changed Mailman to force it to use the host instead of the loopback. Still rejected.
Finally I reconfigured Mailman to use SMTP_AUTH and port 587 to send out mail. Still it appears to remote hosts as if they are relayed messages.
I am stumped here. Users do not have this problem sending messages directly to the users in the list.
The IP's are Client IP ranged.
What is making this appear to be a relayed message to the remote host?


We all know by now that the main culprit in Male Pattern Baldness is genetics, which in turn produces a chemical in our bodies called DHT. DHT resides in the bloodstream. In the scalp, this has a devastating effect on the hair follicles. This chemical suffocates the hair shafts from attaining nutrients and oxygen and as a result the hair follicle shrinks and falls out.
FDA registered medications such as Propecia have been scientifically proven to inhibit the production of this chemical. These DHT inhibitors manipulate the function of hormones so there is a reduction of DHT being produced. As a result, hair loss reduces. However, there has been a lot of speculation in terms of how safe these products are and the numerous side effects that come along with it. Over the course of time there have been reports of patients experiencing sexual health problems and the only source of the issue seems to be Propecia.
Consequently, many people are now turning towards safer, natural and alternative methods in removing DHT from the scalp. One such approach is called Cupping. Cupping is a holistic approach which involves using plastic cups on the head and with small, light incisions removes congestion, stagnation and toxins such as DHT from the scalp. This brings about normalisation and removes excess DHT and toxins in the scalp which allows the hair follicles to "breathe" and attain the nutrients and oxygen that they have been deprived of. No chemicals, pills or lotions are involved in the treatment. Thereupon, hair loss reduces and thicker, stronger hair is produced.
Nowadays in modern science there are strict governing bodies controlling alternative therapies in the UK so the public can feel safe and assured they're in the right hands when experimenting with new therapies. Clinics are providing natural and alternative treatments that don't harm the bodies in any molecular or hormonal ways. So instead of rushing towards popping that pill consider a natural approach to rescuing your hair.
Anjum Shahzad (BSc Hons and CMA Certified) is a registered alternative therapist and runs MANEtain Hair Clinic based in Oxford Circus, Marylebone, London. He has been providing hair loss solutions to clients for over 3 years. Visit www.manetainhair.com for more info.
hair follicals breath? since when does hair breath?
I put leaches on my head to improve circulation.
Blood circulations really? So why hair follicles gathered from the back of your head will grow just fine at your frontal head?
This method is awesome! I was bald as a cue ball, and after trying this had a full head of hair the next day. I had to go to the barber shop my hair was so long. Unbelievable.

Patty Jenkins Looks Forward to One Day Being a Director Without the 'Female' Prefix

The Cut is reporting live from today's Forbes Women's Summit in New York City. Here's what you're missing.
Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins recently broke the record for the top North American debut for a female director when the film brought in $100.5 million in its opening weekend. In conversation with Moira Forbes, executive vice-president of Forbes Media, Jenkins spoke about what she hopes will now follow for her and other female directors. "I look forward to one day getting to be a director and not having anything shaded by that female lens," she said. "This film in particular, with a woman lead and with me directing, it's worth noting and commenting on. I definitely think there is a missing feminine voice in Hollywood in the first place."
But, she added, she was perplexed by why female directors were overlooked for big opportunities like Wonder Woman. "There are women who have been running studios, there are very powerful producers, writers," she said. "There is something interesting about directing. I was a cameraperson for a long time — ten years. It's been tremendously helpful in my career as a director because being on set was so familiar to me. There might be some sort of concept that women are less suited for understanding these technical things." But, she advised industry execs, "The world is changing. If you want to get rich, pay attention to this [female] audience."
And for the young female directors watching the rise of directors like Jenkins, Kathryn Bigelow, and Ava DuVernay, she passed on this advice: "Hard work is first and foremost. We're not glorifying the hard work that it really takes to do what you want in life. Secondarily, don't think about being a woman at all. Just trudge forward with blinders on."
