Barbados is a relatively stable Small Island Developing State. It is a high-income country with the private sector being the main economic engine and tourism playing an important role. Around 80% of the GDP is generated from services in trade, transport, government, and business, and other services such as banking; tourism accounts for around 12% of the GDP.
Barbados' economy has shown slow growth over recent years. The country embraces the concept of a green economy with social and environmental issues being tackled in a way that ensures sustainable development, and with the public and private sector both playing a part in this process. Recently Barbados has been defined as becoming "the most environmentally advanced green country in Latin America and the Caribbean", and the government is setting significant national sustainable development goals and targets, for example on energy efficiency, renewable energy generation, waste reduction, waste recovery, and reduction of unaccounted-for water.
A challenge remains that just as other Eastern Caribbean countries, Barbados has a small administration with limited capacities in addressing natural hazards and other emerging threats.

The EU is the 3rd largest trading partner of Barbados. In 2016, the EU was its 3rd biggest destination for exports at 7.9% of total exports and the 3 rd main origin of imports at 14.8% of total imports.
The main objective of EU development cooperation with Barbados is to support the government in its efforts to increase competitiveness, promote sustainable growth and poverty alleviation.
For the 11th European Development Fund (EDF), the only sector of intervention is renewable energy (€3 million), where the focus is on supporting the government of Barbados in diversifying its energy production and reducing its dependency on fossil fuels. The Financing Agreement was signed by both parties in June 2017.
Furthermore, complementary support measures are in place for technical assistance and for the office of the National Authorising Officer.
Under the 11th EDF Regional Private Sector Development Programme (RPSDP), the Caribbean Export Development Agency launched the Direct Assistance Grant Scheme (DAGS) in Barbados in March 2018. After the launch, CEDA conducted a sensitisation and training exercise for in-country advisors and partner business support organisations on the DAGs.
Another initiative under the 11th EDF RPSDP that was launched in Barbados is the Women Empowered through Business (WE-Xport) initiative, in March 2018. We-Xport aims to support Caribbean women to grow their businesses by assisting in them either to start exporting or increase their exports. WE-Xport seeks to increase access to finance by female entrepreneurs through the provision of workshops and technical assistance. The programme also has an intensive business coaching programme to build the participants capacity and increase their access to export markets and networks.
An ongoing regional project that also targets Barbados is the Drug Demand Reduction Programme with the CARICOM Secretariat (worth approx. €2 million in total) that establishes drug treatment courts and aims at tackling resilience factors for youth against drug use. More specifically, the existing drug treatment court in Barbados will be strengthened and so-called Champions for Change Clubs will be established in the country, which will provide after-school activities for at-risk youth.
Another regional project on crime and violence prevention that is implemented by the CARICOM Secretariat (worth approx. €2.3 million in total) targets Barbados with some of its activities, such as reduction of intra-family violence through campaigns that actively involve men to address the roots of gender based violence.
As a member country of the Regional Security System (RSS), the country's law enforcement and border security staff also benefit from the EU-financed trainings of the RSS to standardise training across the RSS member countries, to produce the best possible law enforcement officers and to enable the organisation's successes in counterdrug operations. These trainings are mainly conducted at the organisation's headquarters in Barbados and are worth approx. €1.1 million).
Barbados is signatory of the Cotonou agreement and the European Partnership Agreement (EPA). A National Indicative Programme of €3.5 million for the 11th EDF was signed in 2014, with renewable energy as the focal sector.
Barbados also benefitted from the Accompanying Measures for Sugar Protocol (AMSP), where a combined €42.3 million was allocated from 2010-16.
The 11th EDF Regional Private Sector Development Programme (RPSDP), worth €24 million, was signed in December 2016 and launched in Barbados in March 2017. Under the 11th EDF, Barbados benefits from a €3.5 million allocation which focuses on the energy sector and, more specifically, on renewable energy and energy efficiency.

James Freeman MD
Born on 4-17-1933. He was born in Hallsboro, North Carolina. He later died on 4-18-1993.
In 1974 when James Freeman, Ph.D. graduated from University at Buffalo Medical School, he was the universityâ??s first African American student to hold a doctorate and earn a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree. In the United States, he was one of forty African Americans to hold the distinct honor.
James J. Freeman, M.D., PhD was born in Hallsboro, North Carolina to Esther and Monroe Freeman on April 17, 1933. His maternal grandmother, Susan Freeman was central in his life until he was fourteen years old and he moved to Wilmington with his parents. Jamesâ?? formal education began in a one room school house in rural North Carolina and it was there that his interest in science and medicine developed. His interest continued to be nurtured at Williston High School in Wilmington and later at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia. After graduating with a Bachelorâ??s degree in Biology, he attended Long Island University, Brooklyn, New York and completed a Master of Science in Biology (Physiology).
His dedication to his studies and the pursuit of knowledge led him to Georgetown University, Washington, D.C. where he earned a Ph.D. in Physiology, with a minor in Biochemistry. While at Howard University, Dr. Freeman was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Zoology. During his tenure, he graduated over three hundred students, many who later earned doctorates and medical degrees. His success at Howard led to his recruitment by the University at Buffalo Medical School.
While pursuing his medical degree, Dr. Freeman was a clinical instructor and later a clinical assistant professor in the Biochemistry Department. After completing his medical training, Dr. Freeman launched a private practice in Obstetrics and Gynecology at 50 High Street from 1978-1984. Later he was appointed to the City of Buffalo as Medical Director for the Division of Drug Abuse. Continuing to pursue his research interests in womenâ??s health, he published thirty three papers during his career. An excellent physician and instructor, Dr. Freeman was also a researcher at Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research ( Division of Cornell University) and E.R. Squibb and Sons in New Brunswick, New Jersey. Continuing to be challenged by his interest in womenâ??s health, Dr. Freeman joined the staff at the Nassau County Obstetrics and Gynecology Outpatient Clinic, and at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, he worked as an independent medical contractor in obstetrics and gynecology.
Dr. Freeman served as a Deacon at St. John Baptist Church and he was a member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. A devoted member of the Masonic brotherhood, James belonged to St. John Lodge # 16 Free and Accepted Masons, Bison Consistory # 29, Ancient And Accepted Scottish Rite of Free Masonry, Prince Hall Affiliation, Hadji Temple #61, Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order, Nobles of the Mystics, Shrine of North and South America, Prince Hall Affiliation Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, Pride of Western New York #1502, and Frederick Douglas Council #3.
Very proud of his African American heritage, Dr. Freeman spoke very fondly of his
grandmother, Susan Freeman, who was the granddaughter of a slave. She was 101 when he graduated from medical school and she sent him a shirt to wear which cost her $2.98 at a North Carolina country store. Although Dr. Freeman had attended a rural one room school and his father had only completed the third grade, he was inspired and given more reason to cherish his education.
Most of all, James was a devoted husband who cherished his wife, Allie. He displayed his broad interest in womenâ??s health when Allie complained about hospital gowns and he set about designing a discreet but medically accessible gown. The state-of- the-art patient garment design won him U.S. Patent# 4570268.
It was family that meant the ultimate to him. James was proud of his three sons and would have loved the families of James Jr., Patrick and Russell. Dr. Freeman died on April 18, 1993.

Sudden surge in imports of Chinese and South Korean paper into the country has the Indian Paper Manufacturers Association (Ipma) worried.
Imports of paper and paperboard into India from Asean countries, China and South Korea in FY18 increased at 32.59%, 56.45% and 57.19%, respectively over FY17, according to Ipma.
Sudden surge in imports of Chinese and South Korean paper into the country has the Indian Paper Manufacturers Association (Ipma) worried. It has asked the Union government to take urgent remedial measures. Imports of paperboard have clocked an unprecedented annual growth of 31.18% year-on-year in 2017, according to the latest data released by the Director General of Commercial Intelligence and Statistics (DGCI&S).
"Domestic manufacturers have invested huge amounts in the recent past to upgrade and implement clean and green technologies, product quality, farm forestry, among others. More investments are in the pipeline. Such large investments should not be jeopardised by allowing imports at zero or preferential import duties", says Saurabh Bangur, President, Ipma.
Imports of paper and paperboard into India from Asean countries, China and South Korea in FY18 increased at 32.59%, 56.45% and 57.19%, respectively over FY17, according to Ipma. In volume terms, imports from China reached 5.1 lakh tonne while imports from Asean and South Korea were pegged at 3.3 lakh and 1.5 lakh tonne, respectively in FY18.
The paper industry has flayed preferential tariffs to exporters under FTAs as the overall paper imports touched 1.9 million tonne as compared to 1.4 million tonne in FY17. Including newsprint, total imports touched 3.3 million tonne in FY18.
"While foreign manufacturers can produce at much lower costs due to the supportive policies of their respective governments, they face no tariff barriers in India when they export to our country.
Paper industry has strong backward linkages with the farming community and generates employment in rural areas. Its future commercial viability in the country should not be threatened," said Ipma secretary general Rohan Pandit.
In the seven year period from 2010-11 to 2017-18, imports of paper and paperboard have increased at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.47%, from 0.5 million tonne to 1.9 million tonne.

Aspen Prize Top 10 Community College
Home » General » Aspen Prize Top 10 Community College
Odessa College Among Ten National Finalists for 2017 Aspen Prize for Community College Excellence
ODESSA (September 13, 2016) – Odessa College was named today as one of just 10 national finalists for the 2017 Aspen Prize for Community College Excellence, an award which is recognized among American institutions of higher education as the most prestigious and elevated affirmation of high achievement and exemplary performance that a community college can receive. The $1 million prize fund will be awarded in March 2017 in Washington, D.C. to the Grand Prize winner and up to four Finalists with Distinction. (See complete list of finalists below.)
The Aspen Prize, which has only been awarded to four community colleges since 2011, recognizes outstanding institutions selected from an original pool of more than 1,000 public community colleges nationwide. With a particularly tight focus on student success, the Aspen Institute's College Excellence Program assesses community colleges' performance and achievements in four areas: student learning, certificate and degree completion, employment and earnings for graduates, and access and success for minority and low-income students.
Before the Grand Prize winner of the 2017 Aspen Prize is announced in March, 2017 in Washington, D.C., the Aspen Institute will conduct multi-day site visits to each of the Top 10 finalist institutions as part of a rigorous final review process. The final determination of the top community college in the nation will be made only after examination of extensive data on performance and improvements in learning, graduation rates, work force entry and success, and equitable outcomes for all students. All facets of this intensive process must be completed before a distinguished Prize Jury of higher education experts select a Grand Prize winner and as many as four Finalists with Distinction.
"Odessa College has made dramatic improvements in student success over the past several years," said Joshua Wyner, Executive Director of the Aspen Institute's College Excellence Program in Washington, D.C. "Using an innovative model of eight-week semesters, which allow students to focus and tailor their education to their busy schedules, Odessa College has increased enrollment, graduation rates, and financial aid awards."

The Aspen Institute's national press release naming the 2017 Aspen Prize Top 10 Finalists states that Odessa College is one of the nation's top community colleges for many reasons, including:
A 66 percent increase in annual graduation/transfer rates in just four years
First-year graduates' average earnings are 39 percent higher than the state average
A record low course withdrawal rate of 1.8 percent, a huge decline from prior years
A program allowing students to take one free class, letting them explore and experience college, and speak with student mentors and success coaches about career options, leading to $653,102 in total tuition savings in 2015
Community colleges enroll almost half of all undergraduate students working toward degrees and certificates in the U.S. today. That statistic includes approximately 7 million individuals of all economic, ethnic and social backgrounds, with a rapidly growing percentage of low-income and minority students included in that number. While fewer than 40 percent of all community college students graduate nationwide, the Aspen Prize Top 10 Finalist institutions demonstrate that every community college can empower more students to achieve success, both while in college and after they graduate.
The 2015 Aspen Prize for Community College Excellence was awarded to Santa Fe College in Gainesville, Florida. In 2013, Santa Barbara City College (California) and Walla Walla Community College (Washington) were co-winners. In 2011, Valencia College (Florida) was the inaugural Prize winner. According to the Prize rules, former winners were not eligible to reapply this cycle.
The Aspen Prize Finalists selected today reflect the diversity and richness of American community colleges.
The 2017 Aspen Prize Finalists (listed in alphabetical order):
Two colleges have been named finalists in four consecutive Prize cycles (indicated with *) and two others were finalists for a second time (indicated with #)

The Aspen Institute's College Excellence Program aims to advance higher education practices, policies, and leadership that significantly improve student outcomes. Through the Aspen Prize for Community College Excellence, the New College Leadership Project, and other initiatives, the College Excellence Program works to improve colleges' understanding and capacity to teach and graduate students, especially the growing population of low-income and minority students on American campuses.

I'm a proud son of Oakland -- educated in Oakland public schools before going to Morehouse College and law school at Loyola University of Chicago Law School. After law school, I founded a community legal clinic, and represented churches, non-profit organizations, and 100's of homeowners fighting to save their homes from the big banks. I represented cities and counties on economic development projects promoting job creation through a green clean energy economy. The renewable energy software company I founded makes underserved neighborhoods the owners of the technology of our energy future.

People on the streets of East Oakland are running out of hope. The city government that's supposed to represent them is far away, detached, and has long since run out of energy and urgency. Today, our kids just expect the constant threat of homelessness to hang over the heads of their family and friends. They thinks it's normal to walk past huge piles of trash on every corner, and abandoned cars on every block. They think "parks" are places where the homeless sleep and criminals congregate. They think these things because we've allowed it. We haven't given them the freedom to know and expect better, from life and from the people at the top who are supposed to have their backs.
I've spent my adult life in public service trying to shape that better world for the next generation -- going to court day after day against the big banks for families who are just trying to stay in their homes, going into the schools as a teacher to not only teach and mentor, but to listen to our young people and hear their struggles and their dreams for the future from their own mouths. They deserve to know that in a world better than the one we've given them, their government will listen, and then their government will act.
So what's my "political philosophy"? There's a lot of labels getting thrown around in politics right now, and I reject them all. My philosophy is that government must listen, and then must act. I've had the opportunity to do a lot of listening since moving back to my hometown after law school. Now, if I'm elected, I promise to make the most of the opportunity to act on all I've learned from my fellow East Oaklanders. My platform reflects what they've told me we need as a community, and if elected I pledge to:
Create REAL solutions to homelessness: supportive housing in vacant units, substance abuse and mental health counseling, skills training, and job placement services
Keep East Oakland families in their homes and COVID out of their lives with mortgage and rent negotiation assistance, and build truly affordable housing where every family can live in safety and financial security
Host a monthly Community Improvement Round Table that meets across the District as a bridge between neighborhood voices and City Hall

A guide to missionary discipleship
Rubbishing the Pope just isn't right
Published by CN Admin at October 31, 2019
Photo: Analisa Ramsahai
Archbishop Jason Gordon has been observing an "in-your-face" rubbishing of Pope Francis especially in American media and he fears that a lot more Trinidadian Catholics are "picking up on this thing" which has "no place for us".
"I think we have to wake up because this creeping train is gathering momentum. And if we don't put a stop to it, people are going to be taken away in error," Archbishop Gordon said during 'Ask the Archbishop live' chat on October 16.
He told host, Tracy Chimming-Lewis, Catholic Media Services Limited's (CAMSEL) Digital Media Manager that many theologians, when challenged by the Pope, the Vatican or the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith have maintained they prefer "to err on the side of fidelity to the Church" than to be right on their own.
"And I think that spirit of humility is not being seen in the Church today and that's terribly worrying to me," the Archbishop said.
So, can the faithful question the Pope?
Responding to the question, Archbishop Gordon emphasised that all should have respect for the Pope. He said if anyone disagrees with the Holy See, one ought to start by believing that the Pope must be right, and the onus is on oneself to look at their position.
He explained, "It does not start with the onus being on the Pope. What I'm seeing out of the American media is a whole way of looking at it that is rubbishing Pope Francis. I think no matter what you say, that is not Catholic. That is arrogance. It's pride; it's hubris. It's destruction to the Church and it will bring one more thing…and that's a schism."
Commenting on detractors' presumption of Pope Francis, Archbishop Gordon highlighted that these same opponents were the same persons who "called out" for Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI to be "excommunicated".
"And those detractors were not as vicious, or viral or as vocal as these are," he said.
Chimming-Lewis then posed the question: "So why do you think that is?" to the Archbishop. "Because it's a simple formula," he replied.
Archbishop Gordon observed if the Pope agrees with his opponents, then the Pope is infallible; if he disagrees, then the Pope is fallible.
"So, they become the guardians of infallibility and not the Pope. And there's something highly arrogant about that," he said.
Archbishop Gordon emphasised that though popes have done things that are wrong, dangerous, difficult and bad, one only arrives at the conclusion "reluctantly" after a lot of prayer, and with great regret.
"What I'm seeing is no regret, no prayer. What I'm seeing is in your face rubbishing of the Holy Father."
The Archbishop then echoed Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Sacraments, Guinean Cardinal Robert Sarah's statement that to oppose the Pope is to be outside the Church.
With regards to opinions that the Pope's teachings are Marxist in leaning, Archbishop Gordon had this to say: "That is the most set of rubbish I've heard in my entire life."

In yet more upheaval for Algeria since the ousting of long-time leader Abdelaziz Bouteflika, the controversial head of the country's constitutional council quit Tuesday bowing to weeks of anger from protesters.
Tayeb Belaiz's resignation was announced by state television and comes as the council prepares to oversee a presidential election.
The 70-year-old is one of the "3B" top figures targeted by demonstrators in mass rallies which prompted the departure of Bouteflika this month.
Prime Minister Noureddine Bedoui and Abdelkader Bensalah — who served as upper house speaker until being appointed interim president after Bouteflika quit — have also faced calls to step down.
"We will continue what we have started," said university student Linda, one of thousands taking part in a protest Tuesday in central Algiers.
Police were massively deployed around the capital's post office building, the focal point of anti-government rallies which first erupted in February.
"Free Algeria," chanted protests, who rallied outside the iconic building.
Despite Bensalah calling a presidential election on July 4, demonstrations have continued as Algerians call for a broader overhaul of the political system.
The interim president has defended his appointment, but protesters are demanding regime stalwarts be entirely excluded from any political transition.
"We will continue to march until a transitional (authority) led by clean politicians is set up," medical student Mira Laifa told AFP.
"The people want them all to leave," chanted the crowds, in reference to the interim authorities.
– Bouteflika adviser –
Demonstrators fear that the election will not be free and fair if they are held under the same judicial framework and institutions as those of the Bouteflika regime.
The interim president said his appointment was in line with constitutional rules, and pledged to hold a transparent vote.
The constitutional council which Belaiz resigned from plays a key role in elections, vetting candidates and ensuring the regularity of the polls.
The outgoing council chief was close to Bouteflika, who was shown handing his resignation letter to Belaiz in footage broadcast by state media last week.

What is coulrophobia?
Since it is not an old phobia, but one that increased in recent decades, little is known about coulrophobia.
Scientists and doctors now agree that it is a result of not knowing who lies behind the excessive makeup, red nose and hair color.
The clown wears a colorful makeup to deconstruct the facial features to create a new identity.
And clowns can also break social norms, their mask makes them able to do things that others can't do socially, like interacting with unknown people at ease.
Some researchers believe that coulrophobia cases increased after the 90's, when Steven Spielberg classic horror film "IT" depicting a murderous clown was released and the portrayal of Joker as an evil character in Batman movies did not help the matter either.
Social implications
The phobia can cause a state of panic, difficulty in breathing, irregular heartbeat, sweating, nausea and feelings of fear.
The coulrphobia may seem absurd for some, however, many people suffer so much, that it prevents them to eat a hamburger in a famous fast food chain. It is not a trivial matter either and coulrophobia shouldn't be treated lightly.
Some hospitals use clowns as mural decorations which may make some coulrophobic children feel unease during their stay at the hospital.
Although the fear of clowns develops most of the time during childhood, it is prevalent among adult population too, even if a big number of adults would deny it.
It is said that the phobia develops in early years, when children are very sensible to an unfamiliar face in a familiar body.
There isn't any official data about how many people suffer from coulrophobia, although it is believed that it is much more prevalent in western society (where exposure to clowns is more prevalent since a younger age). Some estimate that around 12% of adults in the US suffer from it.
At the end of the day, any phobia is an irrational fear and clowns exist to entertain us. To help better understand what provoked this phobia and how it is manifested, write in the comments below.
History of Clowns
In circuses, clown jesters were actors with great agility, flexibility, who entertained audiences with their feigned clumsiness and their jests.
Clowns first appeared in the 3rd millennium BC in Egypt. They were entertainers who were allowed to mock everybody including the rulers.
But there is no commonly accepted theory about where clowning in its current form originated as modern clowns borrow from including the pantomimes of Greece, the court jesters or the buffoons.
Actually, most cultures had a sort of clown character, and today's clowns borrow from many such characters.
Originally, the clown in the circus was hired to fill the gap between two shows. His job was to create a loud and gesticulating diversion until the acrobats or animals were prepared to enter. And even in today's circus, the function of the clown is reduced to filling in time around the arena while the properties and apparatus for the aerialists, the trapeze artists and the acrobats are manhandled into the ring.
In the second part of the nineteenth century, there was a heyday for clowns, and even into comparatively recent times there remained traces of that tradition when the circus clown had to be an adept in every branch of circus work – riding, tumbling, balancing, animal training, and very often a skilled musician. Thus, in many instances the clown is a very complex character.
Types of Clowns
There are many types of clowns.
THE WHITE CLOWN is one of the best known ones.
With the white clown, the facial features disappear entirely, leaving only empty space, no name, no identity.
He is an elegant and intriguing character. It confuses the public by its lack of intentions in the face.
THE AUGUSTE is another well known clown character.
It has a red nose, its mouth is wide open and smiling.
In the circus tradition, he crossed the track to reach the public in order to entertain the public. It appears many times together with the white clown and its role is to destabilize the white clown.
Coulrophobia Treatment
In order to be able to treat coulrophobia, one needs to analyze what is the origin of clown phobia:
• Is it the fear of unknown?
• The fact that behind the smiley face there could be anyone?
• Is it that the clown has no social norms, can break up barriers of interaction and that makes one person uncomfortable with them?
• Or is it a childhood experience?
• Maybe a movie?
In a broader sense even Charlie Chaplin could be catalogued as a clown because of his characters, but there is no fear of Chaplin.
Is it just the mask that makes the difference?
Unfortunately there is no cure for clown phobia. It depends on each person. But if coulrophobia is something you can't live without, you should gradually accommodate yourself to the idea of clowns.
Maybe first watch some videos of clowns performing funny acts over the internet.
Sometimes, clowns putting their make up in front of the public can help relieve the tension of some coulrophobiacs as they can see it is just a mask, and they could see the real person behind the mask.
With some people, this is just enough, but obviously this cannot be possible in every social situation.
The fear of clowns is not something you should be ashamed of. Many people share the same fear and if you have any positive experience in overcoming your fear, share it below so that fellow coulrophobes can learn too.
Triskaidekaphobia, the Fear of the Number 13
Triskaidekaphobia is the irrational fear of the number 13. Most people with triskaidekaphobia have an immersive and ongoing phobia / fear of the number 13.…


Thanks for taking the time to look at this site.
I'm Ian, a wedding and portrait photographer based in Calderdale in Yorkshire.
I love being able to spend time with people during their happiest moments.
It's a privilege to be part of a wedding day, so I'm always looking forward to meeting new people and getting to know their story.
The Little Photo Firm is me and my wife, Christina. I do most of the photography but on a wedding day we are both behind the camera.
I started photographing weddings when an old friend asked me and I fell in love with the whole process.
I loved the excitement of the day, as well as the planning beforehand, and perfecting the images afterwards.
It was an amazing feeling to be able to deliver the photos to friends, and to hear how much they loved having a record of the day.
So now I'm hooked! I'd love the opportunity to record your special day for you.

Q: Basic trigonometry (drawing a line) I'm trying to draw a recursive tree, but I'm already stuck at the beginning. I've been trying to figure this out, for a while now, and I just can't seem to get it right.
I am using the StdDraw library. Here's what I want to do:

I've already drawn the trunk (black line). But I need to draw the red line too.
In the main function I've set the canvas size to 500x500px and I've set the x and y limit from 0-500.
StdDraw.setCanvasSize(500, 500);
StdDraw.setScale(0, 500);

The tree parameters that I receive are the tree length (d) and the angle (sine). There are also some others (needed for recursion, but not relevant for this simple problem)
I've drawn the trunk using the following code:
StdDraw.line(250, 150, 250, 150+d);

If you're not familiar with StdDraw it's: StdDraw.line(x0, y0, x1, y1)
Now for the red line I've been struggling with some basic trigonometry, but I don't know where I'm wrong. Here's the code:
//The length of the red line is 3/4 the length of the trunk(given in instructions)
double hypotenuse = (3/4)*d;
//We get the opposite by multiplying the sine * hypotenuse, correct?
double opposite = Math.sin(alpha) * hypotenuse;
//Pythagorean Theorem to get the adjacent
double adjacent = Math.sqrt(Math.pow(hypotenuse, 2)-Math.pow(opposite, 2));
//We draw the line from the last x position minus adjacent to move to the left
//and from last y position upwards by 150+d(previous position)+opposite
StdDraw.line(250,150+d,250-adjacent,150+d+opposite);

I create a new Tree object in main with d=110, alpha=40 to test it.
If I remove the trunk and only try to draw the red line (using StdDraw.line(250,150+d,250-adjacent,150+d+opposite)). I only get a black dot, like this:

A: All your sides are getting set to zero, because here:
double hypotenuse = (3/4)*d;

(3/4) equals 0. Change to:
double hypotenuse = (3/4.0)*d;

or:
double hypotenuse = 0.75 * d;

Publishers' Licensing Services
Helping you manage, monitor and monetise your content
A not-for-profit organisation set up in 1981, Publishers Licensing Services (PLS) was founded by the publishing industry to serve their interests. PLS:
Provides collective rights management services to publishers by overseeing collective licensing for book, journal, magazine and website copying.
Offers a comprehensive range of online permissions services to help publishers optimise efficiencies.
Collective Licensing
Collective licensing offers a simple and cost-effective solution for those who wish to copy from published materials without breaking the law, and for rights holders where direct licensing is inefficient and not cost-effective.
PLS appoints licensing organisations, mainly the Copyright Licensing Agency (CLA), to license the rights granted to it by publishers. CLA licenses organisations in the education, public and business sectors, allowing them to copy extracts from a broad range of titles in return for a licence fee. CLA also has reciprocal agreements with equivalent organisations around the world. CLA is able therefore to collect licensing revenue for the use of UK publications abroad. PLS distributes the resulting licensing revenue to publishers according to the usage data collected from users.
For more details about signing up to PLS for collective licensing click here.
Permissions Services
PLS Permissions is a suite of services designed to help publishers optimise efficiencies in their permissions management processes and reduce the administrative burden. A new feature launched in 2017 is fee payable licensing. The service is particularly useful for editorial staff and authors seeking to clear permissions.
The suite comprises:
PermissionsDirect - which enables publishers to manage their own permissions requests in one simple online account.
PermissionsAssist - a service by which publishers outsource the entire management of their permissions to PLS.
PermissionsRequest - a free service that enables anyone seeking to reuse published content to get permission to do so quickly and easily.
PLS won the 'Innovator of the Year' award at the Stationers' Innovation Excellence Awards in 2017 for its new PLS Permissions services.

Domaine Jean-Michel Gaunoux & Fils, Meursault
Country & Region France, Burgundy
Appellation(s) Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Pommard, Volnay
Producer Jean-Michel and Henri Gaunoux
Founded An old Côte de Beaune family. Jean-Michel went to work side by side with his father in 1978 and started his own domain in 1990.
Website www.jean-michel-gaunoux.com
Gaunoux is an old Côte de Beaune family whose most famous member was Henri Gaunoux—a celebrated vigneron in the decades on either side of the second war. Upon his death in 1972 his estate was divided among his family, and his two sons consolidated the vineyard parcels into two domains: Domaine François Gaunoux in Meursault, and Domaine Michel Gaunoux in Pommard.
Henri's grandson, Jean-Michel, went to work side by side with François in 1978. In 1990, Jean-Michel split with his father and started his own domain, Domaine Jean-Michel Gaunoux, with vineyard parcels from his mother's family. In 1991, he put in a new, very deep and cold cellar and aging room. In 2012, after completing enology studies and working a harvest at Saint Innocent in Oregon, Jean-Michel's son Henri joined the domain. These days, the father and son team farm nearly six hectares, or 14.5 acres, in the villages of Meursault, Pommard, Puligny-Montrachet, and Volnay.
Production is just about evenly split between Pinot and Chardonnay, and Jean-Michel is equal to either variety. The distinguishing characteristic of his wines is—and I hope you appreciate this term—their regal nature. These are self-assured wines, without need of flash or pizzazz (you won't find big extractions, high toast oak, or the like here). They know themselves and are solidly built, pure, long, very mineral, and age-worthy.
He manipulates very little in the cellar, and limits the use of new oak to about 30% for the premier cru red in good years (15-20% for the whites). He racks the wine out of barrel and into vats shortly after the following vintage so that his barrels never go empty and dry out. He quit lees stirring in 2004, fearing that it encouraged premature oxidation, and subsequently found that this permitted him to cut his SO2 additions in half. He does not filter the reds.
In good years, Jean-Michel takes the rare step of putting aside a certain amount of a given year's wine to age in bottle in his cellar for later release. This allows him to offer beautifully stored bottles of his wine to clients. And the thing is, he does so at near the same prices as the current release.
Thanks to Jeff Bramwell for the photo of father & son. Oh, and for the dog too. Jean-Michel has the cutest dog in Burgundy.
Chardonnay 1/2 acre parcel planted in 1981 in rocky soils above the 1er cru Perrières, Meursault's unofficial grand cru.
Meursault Chardonnay An assemblage of 4 parcels: Terres Blanches (1.15 acres) and Pelles (0.5 acres) on the south side of town, giving richer fruit and elegance; and Criots (1 acre) and Malpoiriers (2 acres) on the north side, giving leaner, more mineral wine. Average age of the vines is old—45 years.
Meursault 1er Cru Les Genevrières
Chardonnay The one vineyard source that Jean-Michel doesn't own, hence the slightly different label. He purchases grapes or must from Domaine Latour-Giraud and said grapes or must always comes from the same parcel and equals 3 to 4 barrels, the year depending.
Meursault 1er Cru Les Gouttes d'Or
Chardonnay 3/4 acre planted in the early 1950s on a steep, rocky slope making for a rich but quite elegant wine underpinned by intense minerality.
Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières
Chardonnay Just under 2 acres immediately north of Clos des Perrières in Perrières Dessus, planted in 1981.
Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières
Chardonnay Just over 1/2 acre planted in 1981 on a gently sloped portion of this upslope vineyard. If the Meursaults have the stone, the focus and strict construction, this, the Puligny, has the floral elements, the softer fruit and ease.
Meursault rouge Les Criots Pinot Noir This comes from one acre of Pinot Noir planted in 1966. There was a time when Meursault had a lot more Pinot, but then the growers learned that their terroir was perfect for Chardonnay, and Chardonnay sold so much faster. Jean-Michel keeps these old vines going out of respect for tradition.
Pommard Les Perrières Pinot Noir 1 1/2 acres planted in 1956.
Volnay 1er cru Clos des Chênes Pinot Noir Three-fourths of an acre parcel planted in 1966 in what is the stoniest, most threadbare and limestone-rich of all the Volnay premier cru vineyards. Jean-Michel's parcel is located down slope near the road and in the north end of the clos.

This luncheon menu is heavy on comfort food that I can prepare ahead of time because it was served immediately after a morning of outdoor ice skating. The cheese and charcuterie were one of my more brilliant ideas because they are filling munchies, especially after exercising.
While everyone was mingling, I had an opportunity to reheat the chili, pork shoulder, and baguette. The salad was a cinch to put togehter. The only items that require a la minute preparation were vin chaud and smashed potatos. Vin chaud (French version of mulled wine) is one of my favourite beverages after playing outdoors in winter. In retrospect, since the majority of my guests are not into alcoholic beverages (during lunch especially), I could have scratched this from the menu. However, the aroma of the spices and wine was absolutely mouthwatering. The smashed potatos is so easy to prepare yet the result was amazing. I boiled some baby red potatos until tender. The potatos were drained and smashed to small pieces with a rice paddle (trust me, rice paddle is the best utensil for dealing with potatos). As a finishing touch, I mixed in a generous glob of Boursin, a processed cheese spread with garlic and herbs. Voila! Smashed garlic potato in 3 minutes! This dish was very well received. It will definitely be my go-to recipe for potato preparation from now on.
The chili is one of the dishes that I regularly cook so it was one reliable choice. The pork shoulder, however, I was quite skeptical. First, I rarely cook meat so my confidence is low to start with. Secondly, I have a tendency to under-season meat. Looking at the beautiful 5lb pork shoulder that I bought from Cumbrae's, I was more than a little hesitant. Luckily, the slow long cooking rendered the pork tender and succulent. The sweetness of the sauce penetrated through the meat and it was actually a little like pulled pork. I'm quite happy with the final result.
Happy New Year everyone! May 2007 be another year full of great cooking and baking from Dessert By Candy and you!
Making a buche de noel for Christmas dessert is something on my to-do list for many years. However, the prospect of making a jellyroll (which is really what a buche de noel is) had me hesitating every time. The rolling of a sheet of cake just seems so....daunting, for some strange reason. This year, however, I'm determined to overcome my fear of rolling. In the last couple of years, I saw many modern interpretations of the traditional buche de noel from various patisseries in Paris. The clean and minimalistic look of these cakes really inspired me to create my own buche de noel.
My take of this traditional cake forgos all the meringue mushrooms, leaves, pine needles, and the look of a tree log for that matter. Instead, I opt for a shiny ganache glaze covering flourless chocolate cake, pistachio bavarois, and kirsch cherries. The cake is garnished with Earl Grey financiers, more kirsch cherries, and pistachios. This cake looks deceivingly rich and heavy when it is, in fact, light and airy. It was a delicious end to a Christmas feast.
Preheat oven to 350C. Line a 12x17 sheet pan with parchment paper.
Beat egg yolks with all but 2 tbsp of the sugar on high with whisk attachment for 5 minutes until ribbon stage. Beat in melted chocolate and ground almonds until incorporated. Set mixture aside.
In another mixing bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar until frothy. Gradually beat in reserved 2 tbsp of sugar until the meringue reaches glossy soft peak stage.
Lighten the chocolate yolk mixture with about 1/4 cup of the meringue. Gently fold in the remaining meringue.
Spread the batter evenly in the sheet pan. Bake for 16 minutes until the cake springs back when pressed.
Remove cake from oven and dust with cocoa powder. Cover with a damp tea towel and cool to room temperature.
Scald milk and 250g of heavy cream with the pistachio paste. In a mixing bowl, beat egg yolks with sugar. Temper the yolks with the hot cream, making sure there's no lumps of pistachio paste.
In a small bowl, bloom the gelatin with 3 tbsp of water.
Cook the mixture over medium heat like a creme anglaise until the custard is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat immediately.
Melt the gelatin in microwave to a clear liquid using 10 second intervals. Stir into the creme anglaise.
Cool creme anglaise in an ice-bath of in the fridge until it thickens.
In a cold mixing bowl, whip the second portion of cream to soft peak stage. Gently fold whipped cream into the thickened creme anglaise until smooth. Chill until pistachio bavarois reaches spreadable consistency.
Boil cream and pour over chopped chocolate in a mixing bowl. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
Gently stir to homogenous state, careful not to beat in air. If there are chocolate pieces that refuse to melt, heat gently over a bain marie until ganache is smooth.
Set aside to cool until glaze is thick enough so that when you pour the glaze into itself, the drop pools on the surface a little while before smoothing out.
With the aid of another sheet pan and parchment paper, flip the chocolate cake upside down to remove it from pan. Carefully peel off the parchment paper. This chocolate cake is very delicate and soft so that it shouldn't crack when you roll.
Spread two cups of the pistachio bavarois evenly on the chocolate cake. On the long edge, stud the cream with cherries. Roll the cake, jellyroll style, from the long edge.
Tighten the roll with the help of the parchment paper. Pop the roll of cake into freezer for about 30 minutes.
Using a serrated knife, trim the two ends of the roll. Cut the roll in half to make to smaller logs.
Place logs on a cool rack over a sheet pan. Glaze the two logs with the chocolate ganache glaze.
Place logs on serving plate or cake boards. Garnish with cherries, pistachios, and financiers. Chill in fridge for at least one hour before serving.
Without sounding too much like Wallace, I love cheese. For my Christmas Eve dinner (my family does not really celebrate Christmas), I decided to have a dinner of cheese and champagne. I always have a half bottle of "emergency" Moet et Chandon in the fridge, just in case, and today I was in a celebratory mood.
I rummaged through my pantry and came up with a whole whack of accompaniment for the cheese including dried apricots, dried sour cherries, roasted unblanched almond, roasted pecans, vanilla poached pears, a loaf of hutzelbrot (fruit and nut bread), water crackers, cream crackers, and a fresh stick of baguette.
I'm very pleased with this cheeseboard. It's easy to put together and delicious in every way. I think I'll visit a Polish deli this week and serve a selection of sausages as well for an easy appetizer at an upcoming party.
Winter Solstice is one of the most important dates in the Chinese calendar, often given more importance over the lunar new year. On this day, it is typical to have a big feast with family members, a tradition dating back to the days when the first day of winter marked the end of harvest season.
Being a Chinese Canadian myself with few family members living in Toronto, the significance of this holiday has long since faded. However, any excuse for a feast is a good holiday in my book. So tonight, in our attempt to avoid the inevitable crowd in most Chinese restaurants, my brother and I decided to go for an omakase meal at Le Cafe Michi instead.
Le Cafe Michi is one of the few Japanese restaurants that I frequent in Toronto. Although its offerings are not particularly adventurous, the freshness of the ingredients, their attention to detail, and their convenient uptown location are reasons enough for me to return.
The most memorable dishes of the evening were the ikura don and the salmon maki with shiso. The ikura (salmon roe) used here taste of the rich oiliness of fresh salmon, without the too-often over-saltiness. It was very delicious though very rich at the same time. A few sips of the green tea sure helped to cut the richness. The addition of shiso to the salmon maki was a great touch. The herbal/grassy flavour of the shiso leaf elevated an otherwise by-the-books maki to something pleasantly surprising.
I'm glad that the darkest day of the year is finally over. I can't wait to enjoy a little more sunshine everyday until we reach the height of summer when outdoor inline skating will once again be in full swing.
I only realized yesterday late afternoon that our annual company holiday potluck lunch would be held today. There was an email sent earlier last week but I must have missed it one way or another. This potluck lunch has become somewhat of a tradition at our office and I certainly don't want to miss it. In years past, I brought in interesting dishes to share so of course I had no intention of going the "store-bought" option this year.
Unfortunately, practicing speedskating so many times a week after work also means I am behind in stocking up my kitchen with groceries. By the time I finally made it home, the grocery store was already closed. On the bright side, my pantry is super well-stocked with baking basics after my holiday baking extravaganza. At the stroke of midnight, I found myself frantically flipping through cookbooks looking for something simple yet interesting to bake.
After much consideration, I settled on financier, one of my favourite things to bake and to eat. Not just any financier, mind you. I made a double batch of financier flavoured with Earl Grey tea. This batter can sit in the fridge for several days so now my dessert contribution/host gift for a gathering on Saturday is also solved!
Being a little competitive by nature, I hate to see leftovers from my dish in a potluck lunch. When I mentioned this to DN, his reply was quite interesting..."the solution to that is to make less". Hmm, it never occurred to me to think this way! Fortunately, my Earl Grey financiers were one of the few dishes that was all gone. Now I feel much better.
I've been going to Tremblant for a few years on the last weekend of the pre-season and had some awesome time on the slopes. This year, due to the mild weather, snow condition was really nothing to write home about (not that it'll stop me to writing about it). Temperature hovered around 0C all weekend and the snow was like slushie with some packed snowballs thrown in. Imagine spring at Blue Mountain and you get the picture.
On Friday, I experienced rain, hail, and snow all in the same day. Let me tell you, face mask is a must in hail. I was hit with hail midway down a run and was too lazy to put on my face mask. The faster I went, the harder it hits...man, little ice pellets on the face is painful! I tried to cover up my face with my gloved hands, lost balance, stretched out my arms to regain balance, only to repeat the whole process over again.
On Saturday, it was sunny outside so I was all excited to hit the slopes. I even packed my jacket with a Vector bars and a chocolate Powergel for midday refueling. I was riding with a small group and it's always fun to race each other down a run. I was hanging back about 10-25m behind ML for a long time and was ready to accelerate. I must have gotten lazy with my edges though because next thing I knew, I caught on my toe edge and was tumbling down hard, hitting my bruised rib yet again. Unfortunately, my rib was not the only casualty in that fall. Apparently, the impact was big enough that the Powergel exploded in my pocket causing a mess of stickiness all over my jacket, my snowpants, and my fleece pullover. Yuck! That was it for me to head back to the condo for some serious clean up.
Sunday was a short day for me. I originally did not plan to ride on Sunday but since one of my friends decided to pass, I bought his ticket from him. I know that Tremblant can be cloudy and foggy but riding in the fog with only 5 feet of visibility was more work than fun. It certainly didn't help that people still decided to sit in the middle of the trail. I had to make a few emergency brakes and shape turns to avoid these human pylons. The trail was very bumpy with lots of snowballs and mogols. I don't think they even got around to groom the trails.
A little disappointed by how little snowboarding I managed to do, I did have a good time at the village. Enjoying a BeaverTail is of course a Tremblant tradition. My favourite is the Killaloe Sunrise with its topping of cinnamon sugar and lemon juice. I was happy to see that the pastries here are made fresh to order unlike some other branches. Eating a piping hot deep fried pastry in the somewhat cold outdoors is just so winter, you know?
Ever since I was introduced to the goodness of Quebec cidre de glace a few years ago, I've made a point to pick up a bottle or two every time I'm in La Belle Province. This time is no exception. I bought a bottle of 2005 Domaine Pinnacle Ice Cider and a bottle of 2006 Domaine Pinnacle Sparkling Ice Cider. I'm looking forward to enjoy them this winter.
Creperie Catherine is another restaurant that I return to year after year. It is one of the most affordable restaurants in the Tremblant village and the wholesomeness of sweet or savory crepes after a day on the slope just hits the spot. I love the knick knacks decorating the restaurant interior, all the cute paraphernalia donning chef touques. I enjoyed a hearty crepe Benedictine with two eggs, Black Forest Ham, crab meat, Swiss cheese, and bechamel sauce. It was big enough for two to share. The sucre a la creme is a house specialty as well. I bought a jar of this caramel sauce made with brown sugar and I'm already dreaming up of ways to use it in my dessert creations.
Last but certainly not least is the Oberoi Express. I always stop here on my first night at Tremblant for artisinal bread, local cheeses, and pate. A boule of the delicious chocolate and date bread and a wedge of Le Migneron de Charlevoix cheese were great treats for both breakfast or after-ski snack.
I hope we'll enjoy better snow condition this time next year.
Snowboarding season is finally here even though the weather has been unusually warm in Toronto. I cannot even get into the mood of thinking of snow when it is raining and 10C outside.
Hopefully the condition at Tremblant will be okay. If not, I'll just have to take it as a relaxing vacation. See you back in a few days!
This year's cookies packaging was a mish mash of using up all of the boxes, paper, and ribbons from previous years. Inspired by the 3-tier Japanese boxes that I used for the larger gifts, I decided to go for a Japanese theme for the packaging.
The corrugated cardboard box seen on the right here is very sturdy so it is great for protecting more delicate cookies. The wide band of washi (Japanese paper) has a winter flower motive in white, black, brown, and gold. It adds a pop of colour to an otherwise plain square box and keeps the lid close. The rich brown satin ribbon adds warmth to the whole colour combination.
When I ran out of the cream colour cardboard boxes, I use a silver cake box that I bought a while back. This kind of boxes is typically used by Indian sweets stores for mithai. In fact, EC and I bought these boxes from one of these stores. By itself, it can look a little tacky. However, I added a band of white washi with a silver crysanthemum pattern for a cool winter theme. The brown satin ribbon balanced the colour scheme from getting too washed out.
Most of the cookies are individually wrapped in cellophane bags. The practical reason is to prevent the grease from the cookie to stain the boxes and also to keep soft cookies separate from crisp cookies.
Now that my stash of packaging supply is almost gone, I have a whole year to stock up before next year's holiday baking begins again.
15:45 get my nails done at salon next door. This is only the second time ever that I wear nail polish because my hands are in miserable shape from the holiday baking.
16:30 get my make up done by Christian Dior make up artists. Woohoo for free promotional events! Love love love the funky look...must be the strong purple in the eye and the blue tint in the lips.
17:15 put on dress, necklaces, stockings, and shoes. Pack my evening purse and don't forget the perfume.
18:00 all done! Out the door!
It was a lot of fun to step out of my every day persona for a change.
That's me with DN just before I left for another party with a few friends. I wanted a goofy picture so I said let's do the sunshine....DN was a good sport and reluctantly agreed. The picture came out goofy as expected but I really liked it because I looked so happy and he looked so embarrassed.
Edited 12/13/2006: A few people have asked me where I got the dress. It was made by Helen Wang and I bought it a couple of months ago at Mendocino, a local boutique in Toronto. Wang's fall/winter 2006 collection has a number of similar empire waist pleated chiffon dresses which are very flattering to most body types.
I went to Nathan Phillips Square on Saturday evening to check out the Calvacade Of Lights. I had such a good time because it was one of those occasions which the company is more important than the activity but it certainly helps that this is an activity that I enjoy. I love to be surrounded by the festive atmosphere yet not quite being a part of it. It felt like I was embraced by the excitement emmanating from everyone around me.
I do love to stare at bright lights such as twinkling Christmas trees and fireworks. I felt so lucky that I was walking around with someone who didn't mind sharing my silly fascination for an evening. The chill in the air and the brisk wind did not bother either. Rather, they reminded me my favourite season is finally in full swing.
I love winter in Toronto.

See her work in Vol. VIII #5
Nilsson is known for her densely layered and meticulously constructed watercolors and collages. She studied painting at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and first came to prominence in 1966, when she joined five other recent Art Institute graduates (Jim Falconer, Art Green, Jim Nutt, Suellen Rocca, and Karl Wirsum) for the first of a series of group exhibitions called the Hairy Who. Like many of the Hairy Who artists, Nilsson employed a type of horror vacui; many of her works feel filled to the brim with winding, playful imagery. Her work often focuses on aspects of human sexuality and its inherent contradictions. In 1973, she became one of the first women to have a solo-exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art.

Painting for a Robot
A Collage of Broken Realms


thank you Chxta for giving me the correct spelling. Can you tell me where it comes from?
Its funny how when you get to Nigeria, its odd how Hip Hip Hooray (sort of the UK English form of gbosa) becomes Hip Hip Hip Hooray (introducing a completely different rhythmic pattern). And then after a while Hip Hip Hooray becomes the odd form. Living in a foreign culture is as much about acquainting oneself with a different rhythm as it is about anything else.
I noticed at the end of Osman Sembene's latest filmic masterpiece Moolade (about female circumcision in rural W Africa) that the women joyously sing Wasah Wasah (a beautifully powerful moment). I wonder if Gbosa and Wasah are connected? Sorry for being a complete ignoramus.
Can't go deeper into the entymology of the word, same way as I can't tell you where chuk comes from.
Wasah ... actually , wassa, means happiness, rejoice, satisfaction... celebration if you will.
painful and crippling than male circumcision; as practiced in rural villages without anesthetic and in non-sterile conditions, it produces hideous scarring. Serious infections often ensue, sometimes leading to death. So let's call mutilation by its rightful name.
"to bust" a gang (gonna need guns).
"Chuk" is cognate to the Jamaican "jook." They of course mean "to poke" in their simplest sense, but I haven't found a root for them.


Chilling and unrelentingly gripping, I'll Find You is the terrifying new psychological thriller from the best-selling author of Don't Wake Up.
When Emily returns to work, she discovers a bracelet that she believes belonged to the missing woman. Soon, she becomes convinced that her colleagues at the hospital are hiding a terrible secret.
What if she's wrong? What if her own troubled past has affected her more than she knows?
But what if she's right?
I just couldn't empathise with the main character, because she wasn't made believable- she was rather two-dimensional, and I became tired of hearing her name repeated over and over again. Her parents were cartoon stereotype villains, similarly two-dimensional, and I was rather relieved when the narrative reached its drawn-out conclusion. The writer included lots of extraneous medical procedural details, presumably to add an air of verisimilitude and draw the attention from a thin, patchy plot and wooden characterisation.

Q: Autofac - passing a value inside a .OnActivated Method at the Resolve time i need to pass a value inside  .OnActivated  method  when i resolve an instance
builder.RegisterType<MyType>().PropertiesAutowired().
    .OnActivated(x => {
        var myValue  =    //i need to get a value passed when i call Resolve
        //do stuffs
        }
    );

var myObject = scope.Resolve<MyType>();   //<--to pass a value here

how to do this? i know that exist factories? does it exist a simplier way

A: You have two main cases:
1/Your value is static application wide
You can simply register like this
int dummy = 20;

builder.RegisterType<MyType>().PropertiesAutowired()
.OnActivated(x =>
{
    var myValue = dummy;
}

This is perfectly valid
2/You parameter is known at resolve time only
You can add your parameter as a constructor argument:
public class MyType
{
    private int intValue;

    public MyType(int myCustomValue)
    {
        this.intValue = myCustomValue;
    }
}

Then you can either build a small Abstract Factory or use built int Func
int dummy = 20;
var myObjectFactory = scope.Resolve<Func<int, MyType>>();

var myObject = myObjectFactory(dummy);

Delegate Factories can also help

A: If the value you need to pass is a value that is being calculated on resolve time, from inside the container. You can use the IActivatedEventArgs.
The e.Instance is an object related to the registered object (MyType in the code below), you can do what ever you want with it.
.OnActivated((IActivatedEventArgs<MyType> e) =>
    {
        MyChild myChild = e.Context.Resolve<MyChild>();
        //If you has a SetChild method inside MyType class you can now use it.
        e.Instance.SetChild(myChild);
    });

Every Record I Own - Day 179: Can Soon Over BabalumaThere are...
Every Record I Own - Day 179: Can Soon Over Babaluma
There are few moments in the history of recorded music that blow my mind quite like side B of Can's sixth studio album, 1974′s Soon Over Babaluma. The steady bass drum thump, percolating electronic percussion, and washes of synthesizer prompted a writer at Pitchfork to describe side opener "Chain Reaction" as an early precursor to trance techno. To my ears, it sounds like the four members of Can had read about disco, but hadn't actually heard it yet, and they were trying to create an approximation of the new musical phenomenon. And while the rock-band-goes-disco thing is one of the saddest developments of the late '70s, Can warps the formula, dropping these unexpected moments of pitch black drone and tribal drumming into the heart of the song. If you're not paying attention, you'll completely miss the transition into album closer "Quantum Physics", which initially poses as another drone fake-out, but instead unfurls into a nine-minute dextromethorphan trip of ghostly synth chords, murmuring bass harmonics, and pattering floor tom beats. For me personally, there is nothing currently happening in the world of ambient music, drone, or any other minimalist music form that feels as fresh, uncharted, and completely narcotic as the nose-dive into "Quantum Physics".
People tend to divide the output of Can into three eras: the Malcom Mooney years, the Damo Suzuki years, and everything after that. It's a shame, because while the "everything after that" era certainly lacks some of the magic of the earlier years, there was so much more going on behind the scenes than merely cycling through different singers, and disregarding the entire output of Can after Suzuki's departure means missing out on some of the experimental German band's finest moments. A more crucial change came after Soon Over Babaluma, when the band upgraded to multi-track recording, which meant the band would no longer craft their songs directly to tape by splicing together various jam sessions into finished compositions, opting instead to dive into the modern age where individual instruments were tracked one at a time. It's as if Can weren't particularly gifted songwriters, they were just exceptionally good at conjuring these fleeting moments of magic while jamming together.
Soon Over Babaluma often gets overlooked for falling into the "everything after that" era, but it still retains the magic of the early records. In many ways, Babaluma is my favorite Can album. Along with Future Days, it's one of the two Can albums that I only throw on if I know I'm playing it in its entirety. But whereas Future Days has a very singular ethereal sound to it, Babaluma shapeshifts with every new song.
Get comfortable. If you smoke, smoke. If you got a drink, drink it. Then bliss out to Soon Over Babaluma.

PREVIEW: New-look Cavs seek redemption against Thunder
2. Getting the new guys acclimated
Yes, Sunday was a great showing, but the four new members of the Wine and Gold are still going to have to get acquainted. For example, on Sunday, the Cavs didn't really run any plays, and admittedly they didn't need to.
In the win, George Hill stepped right into the starting lineup and finished with 12 points on 3-for-8 shooting. Jordan Clarkson was the most dominant of the new guys, scoring 17 points and going 7-of-11 from the floor. Rodney Hood was right behind him with 15 points of his own. Larry Nance Jr. chipped in five points, four boards and three assists and a steal.
Nance is an intriguing aspect in this game, considering he could potentially help relieve some pressure off of Tristan Thompson in guarding Steven Adams. Both Hill and Clarkson could see some time on Westbrook, and Hood could find himself on Paul George.
Offensively, as simple as it sounds, the new guys just need to play basketball and fill in the gaps. This group still hasn't had a lot of time together, but as long as the effort is there it is a step in the right direction, and a large part of the reason the Cavs got these trades done.

JAWBREAKER 'UNFUN' LP (Peach Vinyl)
new 2022 peach vinyl pressing
Blackball Records presents Jawbreaker's beloved 1990 debut album Unfun--twelve groundbreaking tracks that captured the very inception of emo's big band and launched a galaxy of young, earnest bands and the scenes that love them.
Unfun has been remastered by John Golden from the original analog tapes; the increased sampling rate boosts some of the bottom end and mid-range. It sounds fucking awesome. The vinyl version is available for the first time since 1992.
This reissue features restored original artwork, and additional band photos from the time of recording.
"Want" and "Fine Day" were in heavy rotation on college radio back in the day, and remained set list staples throughout Jawbreaker's run. Unfun wound up on a lot of fanzine top ten lists, and even the mainstream press took notice. Rolling Stone called it "a feast of heavy melody and righteous braying that roars along with all the spit and spirit of Husker Du's New Day Rising."

Working Parents Who Lost Their Son Plead: 'Don't Miss Out on Things That Matter'
Their son's passing has made them rethink work-life balance.
Working parents struggle with the guilt of losing quality time with their child to make a living for the family and build their careers. As their work-life flourishes, however, their personal life takes a beating — they may end up spending lesser time with their spouses and kids as their jobs become more demanding. By the time they realize how much they've lost, it may be too late.
That's the realization of two heartbroken American parents, J.R. Storment, and his wife Jessica Brandes, when their 8-year-old son, Wiley, suddenly passed away in August 2019. Writing two emotional LinkedIn posts, the husband and wife openly shared their regrets.
J.R. shared in his essay that his life had been dominated by work ever since co-founded a cloud management start-up called Cloudability in 2011. It was also around the same time that he and his wife welcomed twin boys. Eight years later, he lost one of his sons.

"When I got the call, I was sitting in a conference room with 12 people at our Portland office talking about PTO policies," the dad writes. He adds that he and Jessica have an agreement that when one of them calls, the other immediately answers.
"When the phone rang, I stood up and walked to the conference door immediately. I was still walking through the door when I answered with, 'Hey, what's up?' Her reply was icy and immediate: 'J.R., Wiley is dead.'"
Jessica found their son lifeless in his bed after becoming suspicious that his "sleeping in" lasted too long. A naturopathic doctor, she could tell that Wiley had been dead for at least eight hours.
My Mother's Death Left Me Broken, But I Am a Mom Who Can't Lose It Right Now
This Couple Is Turning Their Grief Into Gratitude After the Death of Their Baby
"Hug your kids. Don't work too late." — J.R. Storment
Nine months ago, Wiley was diagnosed with Rolandic Epilepsy, a form of "nocturnal epilepsy" that is "benign." Experts said he would "suffer no cognitive deficits, that he would outgrow his condition." However, J.R. believed that Wiley's death was due to Sudden Unexplained Death of Epilepsy (SUDEP), which has "no known trigger, no warning."
As the two parents openly shared their grief, J.R. writes that he has come up with an endless list of things he regrets. He divides them into two categories: "Things I wish I had done differently and things I'm sad not to see him do." One of his biggest regrets is being stern with him the night he died.
"It's one of the last interactions we had and I've beaten myself up for it a dozen times," the dad writes. "I can still see the tears rolling down his face and the protestations of 'but you're not listening to me. No one listens to me.'"

Because of their tragic experience, the couple is urging parents not to miss out on precious moments with their children.
"Hug your kids. Don't work too late. A lot of the things you are likely spending your time on you'll regret once you no longer have the time," J.R. writes. "If there's any lesson to take away from this, it's to remind others (and myself) not to miss out on the things that matter."
That's because even if you think you have all the time in the world to make it up to your kids, life might not allow you to do so. "If we've learned anything at all, it's that life is fragile and time really can be so cruelly short," Jessica writes. "We wish a lot of things were different, but mostly we wish we'd had more time."

She adds, "If you are a parent and have any capacity to spend more time with your kids, do. When it ends, there's just photos and left-over things and time is no longer available to you. It is priceless and should not be squandered. Take your vacation days and sabbaticals and go be with them. You will not regret the emails you forgot to send."
J.R. says that the death of Wiley has made him question returning to work. He wonders what he can do differently this time, so he doesn't end up regretting many things. For now, he's decided that small things matter, and he could work on improving his relationship with his living son, Oliver.
"We're going to work on this new life — how to live it as best as we can," Jessica writes. "We are navigating uncharted waters and we will be for the foreseeable future."
"I hope from this tragedy you consider how you prioritize your own time," J.R. says.
