On the feast-day of Saints Cyril and Methodius, 24 May 2018, in the solemn hall at the Cathedral church of Christ the Savior in Moscow, a memorable reception was held on the occasion of the name-day of His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia.
The delegation of the Serbian Orthodox Church was headed by Patriarch Irinej, who congratulated the Russian Church Primate the great All-Slavonic feast- day of Saints Cyril and Methodius and expressed his special joy to be able to participate in the event in honour of the heavenly protector of Patriarch Kirill of Moscow, St. Kirill.
Serbian Patriarch Irinej emphasized very good relations existing between the two peoples, the Russian and the Serbian ones, marking them as sincere and fraternal, and especially thanked Russian Patriarch Kirill for committed love and aid to the Serbian Church. Among other things, the Serbian Patriarch also pointed out the fact that during the bombardment of the innocent Serbian people by the aggressor in 1999, exposed to great and terrible sufferings, his predecessor of blessed memory Patriarch Alexey visited the sister Serbian Orthodox Church, and that visit and Eucharistic service will be highly evaluated in the history of the Serbian Church.
Serbian Patriarch Irinej wished the All-Russian Patriarch Kirill abundant divine blessings so that he might head the Russian Orthodox Church for many years.
Greeting addresses were also held by Deputy President of the Government of the Russian Federation O.J. Golodec, Metropolitan Daniel of Tokyo and All Japan, representative of the Patriarch of Antioch and All East at the Patriarchate of Moscow and All Russia Metropolitan Niphon of Philipopolis, Ambassador of the Republic of Bulgaria to Moscow Mr. Bojko Kocev, Patriarchal Exarch of All Belarus Metropolitan Paul of Minsk and Zaslav.


We are open Good Friday, closed Easter Saturday and Monday.
Deliveries are available to all UK postcodes and Continental Europe. We are open 6 days a week Mon-Fri 9:00am to 5:00pm Saturday 10:00am to 1:00pm.
We have been manufacturing Timber Stables and Field Shelters since 1983, you are welcome to come and visit us to discuss your requirements.
"We just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with our Post & Rail Fencing and Field Shelter. The Field Shelter is up and looking very good. It was easy to assemble and is of excellent quality. Thank you so much for all your help, advice and for arranging it all to be delivered to the Isle of Wight, Fantastic service. We are happy to recommend you and will of course order again should we need anymore timber products."
"We are really pleased with the Field Shelter that you supplied to us, my husband has made it into a dog kennel for his working dogs, it's perfect especially with this hot weather it is nice and airy and cool for them. We look forward to receiving the 12 x 12 Stable that I ordered yesterday, the service is brilliant."
"This company is highly recommended. Product is first rate and absolutely amazing customer service. Thanks for always going the extra mile Steve, it's very much appreciated."
"I bought a block of 4 stables from Foster Fencing last year and have to say they are just what I asked for. The quality is very good and just as described by them. Considering the awful wet winter we had they have held up remarkably well, no damage whatsoever. I am very pleased with them and would definitely buy from them again and recommend to anyone thinking of buying Stables or Fieldshelters at a remarkable cost effective price."
"Four years ago Foster Fencing supplied me with 10 Stables which were of high quality wood and are home to some very large horses. These stables have had a yearly clean and coat of preserve and still look as good as new. Last year we decided to buy a Field Shelter which again was supplied by Foster Fencing, this was delivered and assembled in just one weekend. Foster Fencing always give good service and offer advice when needed, I would highly recommend them."
"I have just assembled a 24' x 12' Pressure Treated Mobile Stable that you have delivered ans I'm pleased to say the quality and price was much better than the one it is replacing."
"Recently you delivered a 20' x 12' Field Shelter. I was very impressed with the build quality and very competitive price that I decided to order another one with yourselves."


I think my favorite week of the whole year is the week between Christmas and New Years. I love Christmas, but it's nice to have all the chaos behind you and a fresh new year in front of you. Plus, it's the only week of the year where it's not only okay to be lazy, it's actually encouraged. I'm happy to report that I've slept in past 8 am every day since Christmas. I feel like a new person.
It was finished a few days before Christmas, and I'm happy to report that Adam and I both love it. It's clean and bright without being blinding, and gives the house a classic farmhouse look that we are going to put our own rustic spin on. Also, after all my window shopping and fuss over getting dark bronze/black windows, I actually think the clay colored ones turned out to be a better choice. I like that there is a contrast between the windows and white siding, but it's subtle and not in your face.
The color is Shoji White from Sherwin Williams, here it is in the lineup of all the colors I tested.
It's so pretty, I honestly couldn't be more thrilled with it.
Here is a shot from the same angle nearly two months ago.
So the siding is Hardie Board, which is a masonry siding (basically concrete sheets), and we got it in a smooth finish. The board and batten is a spaced 12 inches on center with 1 1/2 inch batts.
I can't really think of anything else to write between all these pictures, so I'm just going to shut up and let them do the talking.
After a bit of slow going things have really picked up in the last week or two. The roof is about halfway on, door frames are going in (which Adam is doing), beams are going in, we are trying to finalize our rock selection, and all the little fixes are getting fixed before the inside gets spray foamed next week. The updates should be a little more frequent from here on out!
Happy New Year everyone, see you in 2016!
Ashley it has been so much fun to watch your house go up. It's very exciting to think that you and your sweet family will be moving in soon. Blessing to you in the New Year!
Hi Ashley! The house is looking amazing!!! So if I remember correctly from past posts, I live near you. We are also interested in buying property, especially with some sort of water source like a creek or "tank"/ pond. I'm curious as to how you found your property??? We haven't had much luck.
My brother actually found this particular lot, but he found it and we always look on realtor.com. It can be a little challenging if you're looking for empty land because they don't have addresses… You have to be somewhat of a detective to be able to locate and walk the exact properties. If you email me at [email protected] we can talk specifics, Adam I found a bunch of properties with water that are still available.
Congrats on the progress, I agree the window color is good, I think black would have been too much of a contrast. Happy New Year to you as well! See you in 2016.
Love love the colour! You're right– the windows are perfect. Subtle but contrasting.
The house is going to be SO PRETTY!!! I already love it. Great choice on the Shoji white, it's perfect. This is where it just gets more and more exciting!
Thank you! It is getting exciting, though now I'm starting to actually make design choices, and quickly. I'm currently swimming in tile samples and can't make up my mind, because the pretty ones are so dang expensive!
Yeah…but they're so pretty!!! Lol. I'm sure I could lose a million bucks in tile store if I had a big project like yours.
I just read 5 months of posts, I couldn't stop! I LOVE everything.
I found your sight while searching for the "Perfect White " paint color……Shoji White is one I've been going back and forth on.
I would like a nice creamy bright off white with NO yellow undertone ( I always seem to make that mistake!!) The color of your home looks perfect online. Just wanted to ask if you are still happy with it both outside and inside?So many choices , I hope to get it right this time..
I have enjoyed looking at all the pictures of the beautiful home you and your husband have been working on.Any finished photos to add??
I am on the hunt for the same! A creamy white for our exterior that isn't stark white and isn't too yellow. Did you find one? Ashley – are you still happy with your Shoji?
No yellow undertone, a nice neutral white with grayish/ taupe undertone !
Sorry, just saw this! Yes, I am very happy with the Shoji White, no regrets. I used it on the interior walls and well as the exterior and love it on both.
LOVE your house!!! Can you please tell me what your windows are? Also are your post stained?
Thank you! The windows are vinyl Plygem in the color "clay", and the cedar posts are sealed but not stained.
I was curious what you used for the batt's? Did you guys paint it before you put it up? How many coats of paint did you apply? What sheen of Shoji did you use for the exterior? Thank you so much, answers to these questions will help me out more than you know!!!
I'm thinking about using the same exterior color, I also went with clay windows. Can you please send me a finished picture of your house so that I can see it completed ? What color shutters did you you go with? Thank you.
Also, we decided not to add shutters to our house.


SAN DIEGO — Symmetry and symbolism are some of Mark Dantonio's favorite talking points. And Thursday's Holiday Bowl against Washington State provides a lot of it, both for Dantonio and his Michigan State program.
A win would allow him to join Duffy Daugherty as the only two coaches with 100 victories at MSU. Amd another season of 10-plus wins would vault Dantonio past Daugherty's 109 wins.
Thursday expects to be a game of two contrasting styles and coaches. Dantonio is a straight-laced teacher who preaches a ball-control, run-first offense and attacking defense. Washington State's Mike Leach brings a loosey-goosey feel to his program, which relies heavily on its passing-heavy "Air Raid" passing attack. The Cougars back that with a stout defense — once the program's biggest weakness — that ranks ninth in the nation in fewest passing yards allowed.
During the Spartans' 2013 Rose Bowl and Big Ten championship season, Dantonio, then in his seventh season at MSU, used the number '7' as a moment of finishing the job he set out to accomplish when he took over in East Lansing.
This year, he has emphasized '10' as a number of completion and perfection, two things Dantonio has continued to strive for with his program.


Our aim is simple: unleash creativity by making it super simple for all to build and own reactors, via the DSL Reactive Platform. Accelerate microservices architecture, testing and development.
Diesel Apps can be used in the cloud / online, deployed on-premises or embedded as a library, with the configuration local or synced from the cloud.
DSL can enable a much better involvement of the user and business analysts into the final product! Breaking free of being boxed into a UI with limited interactivity and limited options, allows massive creativity.
DSL offers a much more compelling story here! We will explore that and show you how it can be done!
Reactive (or asynchronous) programming was the only way to make something useful out of a big computer, some time ago (interrupts, exceptions, traps what-have-you).
For the longest of time, we switched to a thread-based model, which made programming these interactive and high-performance systems easy.
It's all a matter of choosing the right languages, the right technologies and the right patterns and paradigms. We can work through these and figure out the best ways to think reactive!
Yeah, it is. I find software does not get easier to use, especially on the development side: the software designed to create more software.
It is hard to get started with a new technology.
It is hard to setup a production site in the cloud (except if you pay for PaaS).
The software industry is in a sorry state and we're trying to manage our way out via agile project management, reduced quality, reduced scope etc.
Everyone knows that the last 20 percent of the functionality costs 80% of your budget but nobody seems focused on that first 80% of the functionality, which does not require complexity. Not a lot of focus on "rapid application development" or "serious prototyping". Those that are, do not seem reliable or performance-oriented enough.
Let's see if we can find the right set of technologies, scripts, configurations and whatever else we need to make the whole thing tick and purr like a diesel engine!

Q: Making mobile device images for Windows Device emulator I have a mobile device.
How can I make an emulator image out of it?
To clarify: there is an environment set up on it that is needed for the program I am working on, and I wondered, if there is shortcut past setting it all on the emulated device from the ground.

A: You should be able to download emulators that plug into software packages like Visual Studio or eMbedded VC (haven't used that one in about 7+ years). These emulators come in the form of the SDK for the Mobile platform you are developing on. Mobile 6.5 SDK is >> HERE <<.

The laser is said to be able to destroy targets "within fractions of a second," but Russia has been quiet about what the weapon actually does.
A new Russian laser weapon designed to instantly obliterate targets entered military service over the weekend, the Russian defence ministry revealed.
Russia's Peresvet laser system, named after the medieval warrior monk Alexander Peresvet, entered experimental combat duty on December 1, the Russian defence ministry's official Krasnaya Zvezda newspaper reported Wednesday.
The military began taking possession of the first shipments last year as part of Russia's ongoing military modernisation program, according to The Moscow Times, and there is speculation the lasers could shoot down incoming missiles and aeroplanes.
Russian President Vladimir Putin first announced the existence of this new laser weapon in March during his State of the Nation address, during which he briefly introduced the "Combat Laser Complex."
"We have achieved significant progress in laser weapons," he boasted, "It is not just a concept or a plan any more. It is not even in the early production stages. Since last year, our troops have been armed with laser weapons."
"We are one step ahead our rivals," Putin added without providing any evidence.
Deputy Defence Minister Yuri Borisov offered a bit more information in an interview with Russian state media outlet TASS,explaining that the device could destroy targets "within fractions of a second."
"We can talk a lot about laser weapons and movies were made about them a long time ago and fantastic books have been written, and everyone knows about this," he introduced. "But, the fact that these systems have started entering service is indeed a today's reality."
The Russian defence ministry posted a video of the weapon back in July, before it had officially entered service.
Not much is publicly known about the Peresvet combat laser system, as Sputnik, a Russian media outlet controlled by the government, noted. What exactly it does has been the subject of much speculation.
"It is expected to be an air-defence system that can track and shoot down hostile aircraft and missiles," Sputnik explained, adding, "Some suggest it will be tasked with 'blinding' sophisticated enemy systems, making them inoperable."
Other countries, like the US and China, are also developing directed energy platforms.
China unveiled the LW-30, a vehicle-based laser weapon built to quickly eliminate a variety of aerial targets, at Airshow China 2018 in Zhuhai last month.
Experts speculated that the weapon designed by China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (CASIC) could be deployed to the South China Sea.

What is the depth to groundwater in my area?
Are there New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources publications that have depth-to-ground water information?
How much has the depth to groundwater in my area changed in the last few years?
Why do I have a well with low-quality water (or a small amount of water), while my neighbor has a good well?
How do I determine the quality of my water? Is my water safe to drink?
How can I protect our water resources?
How do I determine my water rights?
I'd like to drill a water well. What procedures are involved in drilling a well?
Drinking water comes from two basics sources: surface water and ground water. These water sources are linked through the hydrologic cycle.
Initially, all of New Mexico's water comes from precipitation, and the principal constraint on our water supply is climate. Most of New Mexico is a desert. A desert is defined as a region with a mean annual precipitation of 10 inches or less, and so devoid of vegetation as to be incapable of supporting any considerable population. Precipitation in New Mexico ranges from 6.7 inches at Shiprock to a maximum of 26.2 inches at Cloudcroft, but much of New Mexico receives less than 10 inches of water per year. Most of the precipitation that falls evaporates within a short time of reaching the ground (or sometimes before). Of the precipitation that reaches land without evaporating, much is taken up and used by plants (called transpiration). The rest either flows across the land surface into rivers and streams, or percolates into the ground, where it recharges underground aquifers. The portion of New Mexico where precipitation exceeds the combination of evaporation and transpiration (called evapotranspiration) is limited to a few areas of high elevation during the cool months of the year.
Surface water refers to all water located on the surface of the land—rivers, lakes and streams. New Mexico's surface water supply originates as rain or melting snow, but 97 percent of that water evaporates or is transpired by plants.
Most of New Mexico's fresh water is stored as groundwater in aquifers below the land surface, where it occupies small open spaces between grains of sand or gravel and small cracks or fractures in rock. These cracks and void spaces are referred to as the porosity of the rock or sediment. All rocks that underlie the earth's surface are classified as either aquifers or confining beds (also known as aquitards). An aquifer is a saturated rock unit or geologic formation that yields significant quantities of water to wells and springs. A confining bed (or aquitard) is a saturated geologic unit of less permeable material that is incapable of transmitting significant quantities of water, thus restricting the movement of ground water either into or out of adjacent aquifers. Ground water occurs in aquifers under two different conditions. In places where water only partially fills an aquifer, the upper surface of the water table is open to the atmosphere and is free to rise and fall in response to atmospheric pressure and changes in aquifer storage. The water in these aquifers is said to be unconfined, and the aquifers are referred to as unconfined aquifers or water-table aquifers. Where water completely fills an aquifer that is overlain by a confining bed, the water in the aquifer is confined under pressure and the aquifer is referred to as a confined or artesian aquifer.
Johnson, P., 2003, A primer on water: ground water, surface water, and its development, in Johnson, P.S., Land, L.A., Price, L.G., and Titus, F., (eds.), Water Resources of the Lower Pecos Region, New Mexico: Science, Policy, and a Look to the Future: New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources Decision-Makers Field Conference, p. 14-19.
Winter, T.C., Harvey, J.W., Franke, O.L., and Alley, W.M., 1999, Ground water and surface water: A single resource: U.S. Geological Survey Circular 1139, 79 pp.
The best source of average depth to groundwater information in the state of New Mexico is the New Mexico Water Rights Reporting System (NMWRRS) from the New Mexico Office of the State Engineer (OSE).
This database can be searched using either Township-Range-section, State Plane, or UTM coordinate location information.
Publications about water levels in particular areas in New Mexico can be obtained from the U.S. Geological Survey.
Click the Publications Warehouse button, and type the key words, New Mexico water + your area of interest.
The U.S. Geological Survey has published water table levels for the Albuquerque area as of 2002 (see chapter 4, p. 50).
Yes, although the data are somewhat out-of-date on many of our older publications. See our Aquifer Mapping Program page for the results of more current work. Another useful source of current depth-to-groundwater information is the New Mexico Water Rights Reporting System (NMWRRS) from the New Mexico Office of the State Engineer (OSE).
The U.S. Geological Survey monitors the water table level in 3161 wells in the state of New Mexico. These data should be used with caution because water table in shallow wells tapping into an alluvial aquifer may fluctuate dramatically in response to rain or snowmelt events.
Bexfield and Anderholm (2002) published a map showing the changes in depth to groundwater in the Albuquerque area.
Bexfield, L. M.and Anderholm, S. K., 2002, Estimated water-level declines in the Santa Fe Group aquifer system in the Albuquerque area, central New Mexico, predevelopment to 2002, U.S. Geological Survey Water Resources Investigation WRI 2002-4233, map, on sheet 59 x 88 cm.
The quality (and amount) of groundwater encountered in a well is strongly influenced by the rock types penetrated by a borehole (eg., Stone, 2001). For example, a well penetrating limestone may produce water that is "hard", meaning the water contains 150 to 300 ppm calcium carbonate, while a well penetrating ash flow tuff will be relatively soft, with water containing <75 ppm calcium carbonate.
Abrupt changes in water quality (or amount) over short horizontal distances are usually related to the underlying geology. A geologic fault that might juxtapose a tuff against a limestone can cause a difference in water quality across property boundaries. Abrupt changes in rock type (e.g., a sandstone channel within a shale) can lead to sudden changes in water quality and quantity over a short horizontal distance.
Often, examination of a geologic map of your area can help you understand why your water well behaves differently than your neighbor's water well.
The New Mexico Environment Department conducts periodic "Water Fairs" around the state. Residents can get their well water tested for free at one of these events. To find out more about Water Fairs, contact the NMED Drinking Water Bureau toll-free at 1-877-654-8720.
The U.S. Geological Survey monitors both surface and ground water quality at 712 localities in the state of New Mexico.
Publications about water quality in particular areas in New Mexico can be obtained from the U.S. Geological Survey.
Click the Publications Warehouse button, and type the key words New Mexico water + your area of interest.
The U.S. Geological Survey has published about water quality data for the Albuquerque area (see Chapter 6) and Red River Valley.
Hydrologic Report 7: Selected papers on water quality and pollution in New Mexico, compiled by W. J. Stone, 1984, 300 pp.
The New Mexico Environment Department offers ideas for protecting New Mexico's precious water resources from overuse and from pollution.
Other ideas are in: Stone, W.J., 2001, Our water resources: An overview for New Mexicans: New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources Information Series 1, 37 pp.
Hydrologists at the Bureau of Geology are concerned with measuring and documenting the geologic characteristics of aquifers. The Office of the State Engineer manages water rights issues. Visit the webpage for the Office of the State Engineer for information about rules, regulations, and guidelines related to water use in New Mexico.
Water rights information can be found in the New Mexico Water Rights Reporting System (NMWRRS) from the New Mexico Office of the State Engineer (OSE). This system can be searched using either Township-Range-section, State Plane or UTM coordinate location information.
Information about water appropriation in the Albuquerque area is in Chapter 4 of a U.S. Geological Survey report entitled Ground Water Resources of the Middle Rio Grande Basin.
Hydrologists at the Bureau of Geology are engaged in practical research and field studies that delineate and characterize New Mexico's streams and aquifers, and evaluate water quality problems. The Office of the State Engineer is charged with issuing well drilling permits and overseeing the diversion and beneficial use of the State's waters. Visit the webpage for the Office of the State Engineer for information about well-drilling procedures, permits, and fees.

SBI PO exam is conducted every year to select candidates from all over India for their prestigious Probationary Officer post. The competition to crack this exam is quite tough and the preparation for SBI PO exam should be very solid in order to crack this exam. SBI PO exam takes places in 2 main rounds, the Prelims and Mains. Candidates who can clear both, need to appear for one final round, which is the interview round to get finally appointed as an SBI PO.
Any SBI PO preparation is incomplete without the right set of SBI PO books and SBI PO free mock tests. Books for banking exams like SBI will help you to go deep into every concept of the exam and understand the logic behind every formula, statement or facts. At IBPS Guide, you can check out the best SBI PO books and take a free online test to check your preparation for the SBI PO exam.

IBPS Guide SBI mock test series are designed in both Hindi and English languages to help candidates get maximum benefits by attempting them. SBI PO mock test should definitely be a part of your final preparation for SBI exam if you want to qualify it with flying colors.
SBI Prelims exam preparation is the first stage of an SBI PO aspirant. With an SBI PO Prelims Mock Test, a candidate can cover all the syllabus for the Prelims exam and get prepared before the exam takes place. A SBI Prelims exam will have 100 questions of 100 marks and has to be answered in an hour. Since there are 3 sections, there will be a sectional time of 20 minutes per section. The three sections will be: English Language, Quantitative Aptitude and Reasoning Ability.
Many aspirants sit for the SBI PO Prelims exam will a good preparation but fail to answer the exam well due to poor time-management skills. By practicing IBPS Guide SBI PO free mock tests, any candidate can improve their weakness and perform well in the actual exam. Our SBI PO Prelims mock test mimic the real exam and asks candidates to answer each section within the stipulated time of 20 minutes.
Every wrong answer which is given by candidates will leads to deduction of ¼ or 0.25 mark as a penalty from total marks scored by the candidates.
If any questions are unanswered by the candidates, no marks will be deducted.

Q: How to extract dates from a given string in Java For example, in:
"ABC 1 January 2014"
  "$%^DA sfad AD Friday 18 April 2014"
  "GOOD Day Tuesday 13 May 2014"

I want get the date strings from them, like
"1 January 2014"
  "18 April 2014"
  "13 May 2014"

If the prefix strings are already known, is it possible use regex to achieve it? If so how to do that?

A: If your strings are really that simple you can use
"\\b\\d{1,2}\\s+(January|February|March...etc)\\s+\\d{4}\\b"

Explanation:
\\b            # word boundary
\\d{1,2}       # one or two digits
\\s+           # some whitespace
(January etc)  # all months, spelled out, delimited by |
\\s+           # more whitespace
\\d{4}         # exactly 4 digits
\\b            # word boundary

A: You will need to use a good regular expression to extract that information. Take a look  on the following links:

Timothy Hawthorne
Associate Professor, Graduate Director
HPH 403P
timothy.hawthorne@ucf.edu
Dr. Hawthorne is a 2022 National Geographic Explorer and a tenured, associate professor of geographic information systems (GIS) in the department of sociology. He also serves as the UCF Sociology Graduate Program Director. He is a public scholar broadly trained in human geography with expertise in community geography and Geographic Information Systems, social and environmental inequalities, critical GIS, Participatory GIS (PGIS), mixed methods, STEAM education, Belize and citizen science. He also serves as graduate director in the department of sociology (beginning August 8, 2020). He joined UCF to co-lead the College of Sciences GIS Cluster Initiative in August 2015. He has received over $4.76 million in funding including seven awards from the U.S. National Science Foundation. He has published over 25 peer-reviewed articles in high-impact journals spanning multiple disciplines with numerous student co-authors.
He currently serves as Principal Investigator of a NSF Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) and Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) Site in Orlando and Belize. This work includes students and K-12 teachers in research focused on social and environmental inequalities relates to flooding and litter in Belize. The work is in collaboration with Co-PI Dr. Lain Graham (Esri and UCF Affiliated Faculty), Dr. Hannah Torres (former Co-PI, University of New Mexico) and Dr. Christy C. Visaggi (former Co-PI of Georgia State University). The REU/RET Site has received over $800,000 on funding from NSF since 2015 and has included over 70% of its participants from underrepresented groups in STEAM in an effort to broaden participation in science.
Inspired by work with students and community partners, in 2015, he founded an internationally-recognized research group called Citizen Science GIS. The group's goal is to connect scientists and society through the use of geospatial technologies to make science more accessible and responsive to community concerns. Simply put, the work aims to work with communities rather than in communities. Citizen Science GIS was awarded a 2017 Esri Special Achievement in GIS Award (one of four such awards for higher education teams worldwide) demonstrating the appeal and significance of their public scholarship to broader society. Dr. Hawthorne was named a 2022 GIS Hero from Esri for his work leading Citizen Science GIS.
In early 2022, Citizen Science GIS designed and launched the nation's first GeoBus™. GeoBus is a mobile STEAM learning lab powered by solar on a repurposed 40-foot city bus that provides geospatial technology learning experiences to K-12 youth and teachers across Florida. GeoBus thrives on partnerships, including Lynx, 15lightyears, and National Geographic Society, GeoBus extends the team's previous STEAM education outreach efforts in their Maps, Apps, and Drones Tour which has inspired over 10,000 youth in Central Florida schools from 2017 to 2021.
Dr. Hawthorne serves as Co-PI on $1.26 million NSF grant led by Dr. Emmett Duffy (PI) and the Smithsonian's MarineGeo program. The UCF team led by Hawthorne and former post-doc Dr. Bo Yang works with students and partners to drone map seagrass beds at Smithsonian field sites along the western coast of North America from San Diego to Alaska.
Dr. Hawthorne earned his PhD in Geography in 2010 from The Department of Geography at The Ohio State University where he worked under the direction of Dr. Mei-Po Kwan. He received his M.A. in Geography in 2005 from the Department of Geology and Geography at West Virginia University where he worked under the direction of Dr. Daniel Weiner. Dr. Hawthorne is also a 2003 graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree majoring in Geography with a minor in English where he was advised by Dr. John Krygier.

Whanganui's Richie Dibben leads Te Awamutu's David Hall in the F2 class at the weekend for the opening round of the Suzuki International Series. Photos / Andy McGechan, BikesportNZ.com
By: Andy McGechan
editor@bikesportnz.com
Watch this space – Whanganui's Richie Dibben is the real deal when it comes to racing motorcycles of any description.
Already an international star in the motorcycling code of super moto racing, the 30-year-old bike shop owner has now demonstrated his amazing adaptability by also racing a purpose-built road bike, and so far he's proven to be just as skilled on this totally different two-wheeled machine.
Dibben qualified fastest and scored back-to-back super moto wins on his lightly-modified Suzuki RM-Z450 dirt bike at the opening round of the 2019 Suzuki International Series at Taupo at the weekend.
While that perhaps came as a surprise to nobody, Dibben was also in scintillating form on his Suzuki GSX-R600 road bike in the 600cc Formula Two (F2) class at Bruce McLaren Motorsport Park on the Saturday and Sunday.
This was the start of only his second season of racing in the F2 class, yet Dibben qualified fastest on Saturday and then won his first of two races, passing the chequered flag just ahead of fellow Suzuki GSX-R600 rider David Hall, from Te Awamutu.
Unfortunately for Dibben, he crashed while leading the weekend's second F2 race the following day and this leaves him an undeserved eighth overall in the F2 standings after this opening round of three in the series.
"I'll be in catch-up mode for the rest of the series in this class," lamented Dibben.
"But I am happy with my form at the moment.
"I have been on the pace after having come back from racing in Australia and I'm feeling good on the GSX-R600.
"To come away with the win was even better.
"Bit of a shame about Sunday. I lost the front end coming out of the hairpin. So it was a win and a zero for me.
"I raced two rounds of the Australian nationals and had two Top 5's, so pretty happy with that.
"Coming back here having more knowledge of the bike was obviously good for me.
"Hopefully I can catch up with good results at Manfeild [this coming weekend] and the final round at Whanganui [on Boxing Day].
"The Suzuki RM-Z450 was running sweet in the super moto class.
"I won at Whanganui on this same bike last year, so it's looking promising for a series win in this class."
Dibben was untouchable in the supermoto class.
It was also an encouraging start to the series for 27-year-old dairy farmer Hall.
"I broke the lap record at Taupo in race one on Saturday, but it was quite short and I didn't have enough laps to catch and pass Richie.
"Richie Dibben was really flying. I was running second in the second race on Sunday when Richie crashed.
"I was in the lead after that but the race was red-flagged.
"I was behind Rogan Chandler after the re-start but then the organisers stopped it again because of the rain.
"I'm happy with my form. It's the best I've ever ridden."
Upper Hutt's Chandler (Yamaha R6) won the round thanks to consistency, as his scorecard of third and first in the two races gives him a one-point buffer over Hall with two rounds remaining.
In the Formula One (Superbike) class, visiting British rider Richard Cooper gave a glimpse of his potential to win the International Series after he dramatically improved his results between Day 1 and Day 2 at Taupo.
Although making his debut on the Taupo track at the weekend, Cooper (Suzuki GSX-R1000) finished third in Saturday's race, but then moved up to challenge for the lead, eventually finishing runner-up, in Race 2 on Sunday.
He is positioned second overall, behind Whakatane's double race winner Damon Rees (Honda CBR1000) after the opening round, but obviously showed he is a very fast learner.
"I've had a good team around me with Sloan Frost and his Suzuki team," said the modest Cooper.
"We've had some good track time here and I've learned a lot.
"I think I've proved I'm here for the fight."
Dibben is supported by Barracks Sports Bar, Totalspan, Bernard Racing, Garmac Engineering, David Jones Motors, Roger Crowley Solicitors, Mike Paul Building Inspectors, BikesportNZ.com and Steel It.

PM Mikati's resignation throws Lebanese politics in turmoil
Saeed Ahmed, CNN
Updated 11:17 AM EDT, Mon March 25, 2013
Sectarian tensions have worsened in recent months as the civil war in neighboring Syria rages on.

His departure comes at a sensitive time for Lebanon
Mikati says he couldn't negotiate a breakthrough on two fronts
Lebanon constantly struggles to maintain a balance among its sects
The news of Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati's resignation spurred fierce weekend clashes in his hometown, the coastal city of Tripoli.
Residents lobbed rockets and fired bullets at one another Saturday, leaving at least three people wounded, state news agency NNA reported.
The city is home to both Alawite and Sunni Muslims, and sectarian tensions have worsened in recent months as the civil war in neighboring Syria rages on.

Lebanon PM on regional instability
exp gps mikati sot_00002001.jpg
GPS: Mikati on Lebanon & Syria
The Alawites support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. The Sunnis want his ouster.
The Lebanese government has remained officially neutral in the conflict – even as it has firmly, but quietly, supported al-Assad.
And Mikati, while a Sunni, led that effort.
His departure, therefore, comes at a sensitive time for Lebanon.
Analysts say the longer the Syrian conflict rages, the more destabilized Lebanon will become.
Read: Lebanon's government resigns
Deadlock prompts resignation
Mikati announced the resignation of his government Friday after he said he could not negotiate a breakthrough on two fronts:
– Preparations for the country's June parliamentary elections
– Extending the term of the head of Lebanon's internal security forces.
The group to blame in both cases is Hezbollah, a powerful Shiite political party that has links with the al-Assad government and dominates Lebanon's government.
In the case of election preparations, lawmakers have been unable to come to an agreement on an election law.
In the second instance, Hezbollah distrusts Maj. Gen. Ashraf Rifi, the security forces head. Rifi, like Mikati, is a Sunni.
"The prime minister cannot work in such conditions. He needs to respect the constitution," his spokesman, Fares Gemayyel, said.
Complicated politics
Politics in Lebanon is complicated as it constantly struggles to maintain a balance among its religious and ethnic sects.
By law, the prime minister must be a Sunni Muslim, the parliamentary speaker a Shiite, and the president a Christian.
Mikati became prime minister two years ago, after Hezbollah brought down the previous unity government.
Since then, he has maintained a balance between pro- and anti-al-Assad factions. His government, says Middle East expert Chris Phillips, was more interested in keeping Lebanon from getting dragged into the conflict.
But in recent months, he has been at odds with Hezbollah.
And the latest issues brought the tension to the surface.
Read: What's at stake for Syria's neighbors?
The Syrian connection
The major concern for Lebanon is that Syria's troubles will reopen the wounds of Lebanon's 15-year-long civil war, which ended in 1990.
Aside from its southern border with Israel, Lebanon is entirely surrounded by Syria, and was considered part of "greater Syria" until the end of World War I.
It became an independent country in 1943 but has been strongly influenced by Syria both politically and militarily for much of the time since.
Syrian troops were deployed in Lebanon between 1976 and 2005, primarily in the north – ostensibly at first as peacekeepers to help stop Lebanon's long civil war – but maintained a significant presence long after the fighting stopped in 1990.
This all changed in 2005 after former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri was killed by a car bomb in Beirut.
Anti-al-Assad elements in Lebanon accused the Syrian government of being behind the attack, and popular protests – along with international pressure – forced the Syrian military to withdraw from the country.
Since then, Lebanon's two most prominent political blocs have been sharply divided in their attitude toward Syria: the ruling pro-Syria alliance led by Mikati and a group of anti-Syrian factions led by Saad Hariri, son of the assassinated former prime minister.
In addition, thousands of refugees have poured into Lebanon since the conflict in Syria began.
Costly uncertainty
In this climate, any instability in Lebanese politics can only exacerbate the spillover from the Syrian war.
"Now it is important for dialogue to begin for a salvation government to be established during this difficult period," Mikati tweeted after submitting his resignation.
United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon also called on cooler heads to prevail.
"At this challenging time for the region, the secretary-general calls on all the parties in Lebanon to remain united behind the leadership of President (Michel) Sleiman," a statement from his office said.
CNN's Salma Abdelaziz contributed to this report.

The Tolkowsky name is legendary in the diamond business, and synonymous with expertise and precision.
A diamond and gold mining entrepreneur, financier and philanthropist.
Harry Winston such a well-known name outside of the diamond industry that numerous books have been written about his legacy and the many famous stones and people he was associated with. He became known as the "jeweler to the stars" with his focus on the Hollywood A-list.
Joseph Goldfinger, known as "Mr. Diamond," and many credit him with putting the Israeli diamond industry on the map.
The Asscher family is one of a handful of diamond dynasties that have made an indelible mark on the diamond industry. The company bearing their name has been working in diamonds for over 150 years and is still run by the descendants of its founder.
Ernest "Monty" Charles was one of the principal architects of the modern diamond industry and the Sight system created by De Beers. He commanded the power within De Beers to decide which diamond parcels went to which clients, as well as who was on or off the Sightholder list. With De Beers controlling over 80% of the market at the time, and with Monty Charles in charge of both the buying and selling operations of De Beers, he was almost a monopoly in and of himself.
This 15th century royal couple had a significant impact on the diamond industry, playing a pivotal, arguably even a crucial role in the development of diamonds in modern culture.

7 Career Mistakes You'll Want to Avoid
Published: Mar 20, 2017 By Leigh Goessl
Throughout your career you'll be making many decisions; some will be done consciously, but other choices, actions or things said might be less thought out. You want to be sure you don't make blunders that take your career off-course. Even little mistakes can make a difference and present you in a bad light.
Want to prevent doing damage to your professional reputation? Do you want to enjoy solid career growth and avoid missing out on good opportunities? You'll want to steer clear of making these common mistakes.
1. Not keeping an eye on industry trends
Are you content in your job and don't bother taking the time to keep your resume updated? Do you have a pulse on your industry for job leads? If you don't, you should. You never know when you could miss the boat on an exciting new opportunity. Or, alternatively, your company may downsize, close shop or let people go for other reasons. Along with keeping an eye on trends, stay up-to-speed in your industry—take continuing education, pursue certifications, anything to remain up-to-date in both knowledge and skills. You never know what's around the corner, so think like the Boy Scouts do and "Be Prepared."
2. Spending the workday cyberloafing
Spending time online doing non-work related business hurts productivity and wastes company resources. Do you do the following during the workday?
Hang out on social media.
Read and respond to personal emails.
Run to websites to keep up with favorite sports teams.
Bank, shop or pay your bills.
These activities, collectively called "cyberloafing," cost businesses in the United States as much as $85 billion a year according to a 2016 report by the Wall Street Journal. The WSJ cited a study, conducted by the University of Nevada, which found people admitted to spending from 60 to 80 percent of their at work time cyberloafing.
If you spend more than a few moments a day on these activities, employers typically don't like it— and they're taking notice. Ultimately, this could come back to bite you.
3. Not being a team member
Work environments today are highly team-centric. If you're actively working solo in your job, you might become viewed as someone who isn't a team player. Most organizations have at least one, so don't be "that person." If you aren't sharing information or knowledge with colleagues, ask yourself why, and take steps to rectify the situation. If you aren't holding information back but simply don't offer ideas or other feedback, this is another question to ask yourself. Not contributing does you a disservice, and you could be losing opportunities to be noticed.
4. Making yourself indispensable
Are you qualified, highly productive and well-liked, yet you still aren't getting promoted? It might be because you've made yourself indispensable. It sounds weird, but by doing a good job you could actually be hurting your career. This isn't to say you should start slacking off. You can fix this by making some changes in your work habits:
Learn how to share your tacit knowledge.
Delegate work and learn to trust others.
If in management, surround yourself with people who can handle your tasks.
The above goes hand-in-hand with being a team member. Don't make yourself unable to take those vacations or sick days. Don't be the person who is too "needed' to be considered for any upward movement.
5. Lacking professionalism
Professionalism is a broad term ranging from dress to behavior and everything in between. That being said, there are some generalizations associated with keeping a professional appearance. Some habits or attributes that can make you appear unprofessional include:
Not following through on promised deliverables or communicating problems that arise.
Proving to be incompetent at managing tasks.
Poorly constructed emails and other written communications.
Weak verbal skills, either in person or on the telephone; the language you choose matters.
Posting risqué photos or words on social media (even on private accounts).
Repeated lack of punctuality, either arriving at work or for meetings.
Not following an organization's code of conduct.
Another unprofessional behavior is engaging in office gossip, but this should really be its own mistake because it's a biggie.
6. Engaging in office gossip
Office gossip tends to contribute to toxic workplaces because it causes suspicion, discord and unpleasantness. A few minutes of thoughtless idle chatter can damage a person's reputation and career. Don't be the one associated with spreading gossip—you'll put a wedge between yourself and your colleagues. You'll probably also become known as an untrustworthy person, which could follow you in your career. Never get involved in office drama, it doesn't matter if the talk is true, untrue, related to work or unrelated to work—just stay out of it.
7. Applying for any job
It's seldom a good idea to apply for jobs you aren't really interested in or qualified to do. If you currently have a job, try to limit job searches to specific ones you really want. If you don't have a job, start with the best-fitting ones, and move on from there. You don't want to have your resume show up repeatedly in front of the same hiring managers. What do you do if you land a job you really didn't want, and a better opportunity comes up? Do you quit or stay put? If you constantly switch jobs that don't show upward movement, you could self-sabotage. Try to be someplace you really want to be in the first place.
Other actions that can hurt your career include dwelling on mistakes (own it, apologize, fix it and move on), introducing your personal problems to the workplace and lying on your resume.

NBC Touts A Silver Lining In Historically Low Viewership For The Tokyo Olympics
By Eric Deggans
The audience for streaming the Tokyo Olympics was strong, but overall the ratings were down from the Rio Games.
Like so many things connected to this year's often-troubled Tokyo Olympics, NBCUniversal's final viewership figures for its TV and streaming coverage have a definite good news/bad news quality.
The good news trumpeted by NBC: 17 nights of prime time coverage on the broadcast network ranked just behind Sunday Night Football as the second-most-watched show of the 2020-21 TV season. Viewers streamed a record 5.5 billion minutes of events across social media and online platforms such as NBCOlympics.com, the NBC Sports app and the streaming service Peacock. Those figures make the Tokyo Games the most-streamed Olympics ever, giving Peacock its best two weeks of use since it debuted in April 2020.
But there's also bad news. The average prime time viewership each night across all of its platforms — online, cable and network — was just 15.5 million people, down from an average 26.7 million viewers for the Rio Games in 2016. That's a 42% plunge. Similarly, just 150 million Americans watched the Games, compared with 198 million who saw the events in Rio. It was the lowest average primetime viewership for the Games on NBC, which began broadcasting the Summer Olympics in 1988.
Figures show the uptick in viewing online doesn't match the loss in audience on more traditional outlets such as cable TV and the broadcast network, though it does mirror the overall ratings drop for broadcast and cable TV in general over the past five years.
Still, NBC insists in its press materials that the Tokyo Olympics represent the largest media event in history. That's largely due to the amount of material NBCUniversal presented across its assorted platforms — a record 7,000 hours of coverage across the broadcast network, cable channels like USA and Telemundo Deportes, and online.
"No single property has a greater positive effect on our company," says Mark Lazarus, chairman of NBCUniversal television and streaming, in a statement. "Our Olympic presentation has provided unmatched promotion."
Historic amount of coverage leads to confusion
But critics complained that the company didn't do a great job helping viewers sort through the sometimes-overwhelming amount of coverage, especially regarding live events. The streaming service Peacock, in particular, took a lot of barbs for a confusing design and coverage of men's basketball that was placed behind a paywall.
And one of the most attention-getting elements of NBC's coverage — an irreverent, sometimes-profane stream of commentary on Olympics highlights offered by comic Kevin Hart and rapper Snoop Dogg — was also based on Peacock, where the wider audience likely didn't see it. (Be warned: The YouTube clip linked above does not bleep the salty language.)
NBC was already facing an uphill battle, negotiating a 13-hour time difference that ensured many sports fans would already know the outcome of key contests before they were shown in prime time on the network. Several competitors NBC had hyped for months leading into the Games, from tennis star Naomi Osaka to gymnastics legend Simone Biles and the U.S. women's soccer team, struggled in competition.
And there was the biggest challenge: presenting the Games during a pandemic. Besides the decision to ban most spectators and some athletes dropping out after positive coronavirus tests, the world's ongoing struggles with COVID-19 dampened an event that could have been a triumphant showcase of the globe's emergence from lockdown.
Instead, the Olympics too often felt burdened by the long shadow of the coronavirus threat, from finding camera angles that didn't emphasize the rows of empty stands to providing footage of family and friends celebrating star athletes' accomplishments from their stateside hometowns instead of in Tokyo.
NBC says its coverage of the Games boosted everything from podcasts to broadcast programs such as the Today show and NBC Nightly News.
But the days when the Olympics were appointment television for most TV viewers seem to be ending. The pressing question for NBC — which has spent billions for rights to air the Games until at least 2032 — is how to handle a media world where the hours of coverage are increasing while audience numbers are heading in the opposite direction.

London (CNN) – The British Parliament has passed a bill that will allow Prime Minister Theresa May to start talks to leave the European Union.
The Queen will now sign it into law, clearing the way for May to trigger Article 50, beginning the process by which Britain will give up its EU membership.

An abundance of extra amenities! 4 Bedroom home with 3 bathrooms with an open concept living/dining/kitchen area that would be great for entertaining. Extra large family fun room/great room w/oversize bar, pellet stove & 3rd bathroom. Large master bedroom with full master bathroom. Large hobby/craft room off kitchen. Storage building. Attached two car garage with enclosed hobby/workshop room as well. A lot of bang for the buck.

Q: Removing access to System.out in java I maintain an application which acts as a container for multiple individual programs. These programs have their own dedicated logging facility, i.e. everything they log does to a special log file.
Nevertheless, application developers seem to love to throw System.out.println and e.printStackTrace calls all over, making it impossible to maintain a clean console when running the container.
How can I prevent these applications from polluting System.out and System.err?

Implementation notes:

*

*the applications use Log4j for logging;

*the container also uses the console for logging, but it is strictly reserved for lifecycle events and problems, so I still need the console;

*the applications are loaded using a custom classloader, but no security checks are applied.

Update:
Simply redirecting System.out would not work since it redirects all output, so something like this fails:
    System.setOut(new PrintStream(new OutputStream() {

        @Override
        public void write(int b) {

            throw new Error("Not on my watch you don't");

        }
    }));

    Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(Runner.class);
    logger.info("My log message");

This should succeed.
Update 2:
The applications are loaded and configured using code similar to
App app = new UrlClassLoader(...).loadClass(className)).newInstance();
app.setLogger(loggerForClass(app));

Log4j is loaded from the system class loader.

A: While Java defines a standard System.out and System.err, these can be overwritten with your own streams.  See http://www.devx.com/tips/Tip/5616
Basically you can set up new streams that either pipe to the logging, or simply let data flop off into nothingness.  My preference would be the latter, as it would instantly cure developers from relying on System.out and err as anything they write there just disappears.
**Update:
I just reread your stipulations in the question and see you still need the console for the container application.  This might still work if you write a wrapper around the standard stream so you can check each call and see if it is coming from the parent application (and pass it on) or a child application (and block it)

A: Use aversion therapy. A visit from "The Inspectors" is scheduled whenever any code is checked in containing unpleasant constructs.
Nice cubicle you got ere, be shame if anyfing appened to it.

A: If you have a headless build mechanism, ant or such like then you could add CheckStyle to the build and configure checkstyle to fail the build if it finds any System.out.println or e.printStackTrace in the code.
If you don't have a headless build I would recommend that you build one as it means you have repeatable, predictable builds.

A: System.setOut will redirect all output - but the PrintStream you supply can decide how the output is handled.  Thus I'm sure you could provide such a stream that would only actually print statements from your application.
The only tricky part really is being able to detect what's a valid call and what's not.  A working, but likely very slow way to do this, would be to call Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace() and see what code (or package, at least) is calling you (simply returning if it's not a valid one).  I wouldn't recommend this though as the performance hit would be staggering, especially doing this on every byte read.
A better idea might be to set a ThreadLocal flag in all of your valid, container threads.  Then you can implement the PrintStream something like the following:
public class ThreadValidity extends ThreadLocal<Boolean>
{
    private static final INSTANCE = new ThreadValidity();

    @Override Boolean initialValue() { return false; }
    public static ThreadValidity getInstance() { return INSTANCE; }
}

class VerifyingPrintStream extends PrintStream
{
    private boolean isValidThread()
    {
        return ThreadValidity.instance().get();
    }

    public void println(String s)
    {
        if (!isValidThread()) return;
        super.println(s);
    }

    public void println(Object o)
    {
        if (!isValidThread()) return;
        super.println(o);
    }

    // etc
}

Alternatively, if you're able to change the printlns in the container code, things get easier.  You can hand off all the console writes to a specific worker; and have this worker "steal" System.out (store it in its own field and use it directly for writing output) while setting the actual System.out to a no-op writer.

A: The key here is to configure log4j before redirecting the output streams, e.g.
BasicConfigurator.configure();
System.setOut(...);
System.setErr(...);

System.out.println("I fail");
Logger.getLogger(...).info("I work");

A: Assuming that you can control your containers output you can do the following:
import java.io.*;
public class SysOut {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
            PrintStream pw = new PrintStream(new FileOutputStream("a.txt"));
            PrintStream realout = System.out;
            System.setOut(pw);
            System.out.println("junk");
            realout.print("useful");
}
}

$ java SysOut
useful
$ cat a.txt
junk

A: You can use System.setOut() and System.setErr() to redirect stdout and stderr to instances of PrintStream.

A: Convert the System.out and System.err streams to special implementations that throw a RuntimeException("Use logging instead of System.out") every time a character is written.
If your container is important, they will get the idea pretty quickly :)
(For extra bonus throw OutOfMemoryException instead ;-))

A: What I have done is redirect the PrintStream for System.out and System.err to commons-logging as INFO and ERROR level logging respectively.
This gets trickier if you want some threads to be able to write to the console or you want logs to go to the console as well but it can be done.

A: You can actually get and store System.out/err before replacing them.
OutputStream out=System.getOut();  // I think the names are right
System.setOut(some predefined output stream, null won't work);
out.println("Hey, this still goes to the output");
System.out.println("Oh noes, this does not");

I've used this to intercept all the System.out.println's in the codebase and prefix each line of output with the method name/line number it came from.

A: Close the System.out and System.err streams.

A: We use the log4j trick but log to separate files (stdout.log, stderr.log). It's not useful to have their output mixed in with the parts that actually understand logging...

Work to start on 21-story mixed-use tower in Koreatown
The project incorporates condos, a Hyatt Centric hotel and retail space
Jan.January 03, 2019 09:00 AM

UPDATED, Jan. 29, 2018, at 4:52 p.m.: A mixed-use tower project in Koreatown that would combine a hotel with condominiums received city approvals, with construction expected to begin early this year.
Developer Leo Lee said the 21-story development to rise at 3800 W. 6th Street has received "verbal approval" from the Los Angeles zoning administrator, according to Urbanize.
As currently planned, the project would include 122 condo units, a 192-room Hyatt Centric hotel and 14,500 square feet of commercial space.
LARGE Architecture is designing the development. The tower will house the condo units and connect to a shorter building with the retail space and hotel taking up the rest of the lot. The entity that owns the site is connected to Gateway Secured, an EB-5 Regional Center near MacArthur Park.
Lee bought the property in partnership with local restaurateur Chul Heay Shin in 2016 for $8.8 million, then bought him out later that year for $2.6 million.
Completion of the mixed-use project is expected in mid-2021.
Development is booming in Koreatown. Small-lot projects have popped up around the neighborhood, mostly by local owners, but large-scale developers are also in the works.
Koreatown-based Jamison Services is among the most active developer there. The firm ended 2018 by filing one more project — a 157-unit project with 12,000 square feet of commercial space for 744-762 Serrano Avenue. [Urbanize] — Dennis Lynch
The story previously reported incorrectly that Shin purchased the restaurant for $10 million in 2015.

This module examines British culture in the eighteenth century. It introduces some of the leading cultural personalities of the age (Johnson and Boswell, Hogarth, Burke, Gibbon, Reynolds, Addison, Wollstonecraft, Paine) and gives students an opportunity to explore some of their most important works. Particular attention will be paid to the dynamic relationship between key trends in British cultural and intellectual life—including the fate of classicism, the rise of the novel, the growth of print media, the yearning for scientific knowledge, the spread of Enlightenment and the progress of radical political ideas—and broader processes in the period such as urbanisation, industrialisation, class tensions, empire, and changes in gender relations and perceptions of national identity.
Weekly contact: 1 x 2-hour seminar, plus 1 office hour.


A History of the Present Illness takes readers into overlooked lives in the neighborhoods, hospitals, and nursing homes of San Francisco, offering a deeply humane and incisive portrait of health and illness in American today. An elderly Chinese immigrant sacrifices his demented wife's well-being to his son's authority. A busy Latina physician's eldest daughter's need for more attention has disastrous consequences. A young veteran's injuries become a metaphor for the rest of his life. A gay doctor learns very different lessons about family from his life and his work, and a psychiatrist who advocates for the underserved may herself be crazy. Together, these honest and compassionate stories introduce a striking new literary voice and provide a view of what it means to be a doctor and a patient unlike anything we've read before.

Q: ORM Linq: Query or Method? Which approach is better for performance? Some time ago I was on technical interview and the engineer asked me which approach is better from a performance side for example in Entity Framework. Obviously I didn't know the right answer (I said that there is no difference) and also I didn't find the solution on the internet.
tldr: Which approach is faster? Data1 or Data2?
using(MyContext db = new MyContext())
{
    var data1 = db.Users.Where(x => x.Name == "Test").FirstOrDefault();
    var data2 = (from x in db.Users where x.Name == "Test" select x).FirstOrDefault();
}

A: Query syntax is only a syntactic sugar which is always lowered to method syntax at compile time.
Giving an example code below:
var list = new List<Entity>();

var data1 = list.Where(x => x.Name == "Test").FirstOrDefault();
var data2 = (from x in list where x.Name == "Test" select x).FirstOrDefault();

You can take a look at the lowered version of this code:
List<Entity> source = new List<Entity>();
Entity entity = source.Where(<>c.<>9__0_0 ?? (<>c.<>9__0_0 = <>c.<>9.<M>b__0_0)).FirstOrDefault();
Entity entity2 = source.Where(<>c.<>9__0_1 ?? (<>c.<>9__0_1 = <>c.<>9.<M>b__0_1)).FirstOrDefault();

As you can see the query structure for both queries is exactly the same.
Full example is here.
