EastEnders CANCELLED by BBC tomorrow as extra episode airs tonight
The soap will not air on Friday evening - as fans tune in, instead, to get a slice of FIFA Women's World Cup action
EastEnders fans have been left livid after their favourite soap was AXED by BBC One.
The soap will not air on Friday evening - as fans tune in, instead, to get a slice of FIFA Women's World Cup action.
All the action from the opening match of the eighth staging of the tournament will air on the Beeb from 7.30pm.
And that means Beeb bosses have been forced to scrap the planned showing of EastEnders.
You can follow every second on the BBC: all 52 games will be shown live, with a presenting team of Gabby Logan and Eilidh Barbour and a stellar line-up of pundits that includes Alex Scott, Rachel Brown-Finnis, Gemma Fay, Rachel Yankey and Casey Stoney.

The women's World Cup kicks off as hosts France take on South Korea at Paris's 47,000-capacity Parc des Princes stadium, in a fixture that heralds a month of superlative sport.
Eastenders CANCELLED tonight - here's what's on instead
The countries met in the last 16 of the 2015 tournament in Canada, with France recording a comfortable 3-0 win.
The French were eliminated by Germany on penalties in the following round, but will be hoping to make home advantage count this time around and win the first major women's international honour in their history.
British fans, meanwhile, have to wait for Sunday 9 June for the first glimpse of the home nations, as England play Scotland in Nice.
Sir Lenny Henry says THIS can help tackle Birmingham knife crime epidemic
The official EastEnders Twitter account teased that tonight's episode will be well worth tuning in for.
It said: "Hold the phone! Not ONLY are we going to be dropping our summer trailer like it's hot today.
"There are also two episodes of #EastEnders tonight. 7.30pm and 8.30pm. You won't want to miss a single minute."

Continuing to present the latest and the most impressive cruise collections, we come to the Tory Burch resort 2015 collection, which is one of the most energizing and wonderful suggestions we could ever have for the chic and fabulous looks. The basic inspiration for Tory Burch this time served the Palm Beach, the touches of the style of which can be noted every now and then among the pieces, as well as the amazing work of Milton Avery, who sort of provided the designer with the main ideas about the design solutions he could opt for.
So that's how the Tory Burch resort 2015 collection can be described, opened up with the classic and creative duo of the long-sleeved white top and the miniskirt having impressive design patterns and textures, combining the shades of yellow, gray, and peachy. Another look suggests a cool way of working with stripes, which thus come with vertical designs and are picked for an elongated outerwear garment, adorned with a belt and created with overall minimalistic inclination. The creative diamond plus cage patterns later also come for covering the whole texture of a tee dress, which again seems to have the hints about the minimalistic approach.
The optical effect created with vertical and horizontal black and white stripes catches our attention later, coming for the nice combination of the jacket, the white shirt, and the cute shorts, finished off with brownish sunglasses. Other classy combos feature jacket plus skirt duos, created with micro floral patterns and matched with more noticeable blue florals on a milky white background for the shirt. The classic handbag we also noted for the very first combo can be found here as well.
The abstracted and oversized design solutions come right after, forming unique combinations with tops and skirts and suggesting some innovative design patterns for such well-known designs as florals. The pale yellow background secures the ideal outcomes. The cute blue florals also make a significant range of pieces, following the other innovative patterns and designs.
In addition, we should also speak about the very interesting ways of using the vintage and classic designs like brocade-inspired pieces to create some extremely charming combinations with tops and skirts, and for pieces like coats and dresses. All-stripy and multi-colored looks also manage to catch our attention here.
Thus, just give yourself a minute to look through the amazing design solutions and patterns featured in the Tory Burch resort 2015 collection and do enjoy the looks you'll have if you opt for any of them! Prove everyone around that you do know how to shine for any season of the year!


HR, the best job in the world – Fact!
In 1991 I had a bit of a shock to the system. I had a part time job through GCSES and A levels. It was a Saturday job, many of us had them, and mine was at our local DIY shed, Texas Homecare. Back in the day, Texas Homecare was packed each weekend with DIYers buying paint, furniture, gardening gear and DIY items. I was on the checkouts or if I was unlucky the Customer Service Desk, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. each Saturday.
Whilst doing A levels I was more interested in boys than studying. It's not really changed that much in nearly 30 years! I was shocked to discover I wouldn't be able to 'wing' my A levels and I left 6th form with 2 pathetic D's an N and a U.
I needed a solution and fast. The answer came in the form of a management training scheme that my General Store Manager, Brian put me forward for. Thanks Brian. By the October of 1991 I was a Management Action Programme trainee (MAP for short) and along with 9 other trainees I embarked on a Certificate in Management from Oxford Polytechnic whilst working full time for Texas Homecare as a Trainee Manager.
By the Winter of 1992 I was working my way round the West Midlands in different stores. I found myself in Haymills in Birmingham. I was managing the Decorative Department. I had a stint in the Cash Office where I discovered I couldn't add up when I mistakenly couldn't find £3500 in cash I'd never had. That was a stressful day I can tell you.
I needed to order some creosote for an 'end'. I wanted one pallet. Then when it came I had over ordered and now had 20 pallets down the centre of my store. This was not the wall of white paint that the General Manager wanted. Funnily enough I was rapidly took off the shopfloor and found an office role as a Trainee Staff Manager in Sutton Coldfield. Best move ever!
I fell in love with HR. Our regional Staff manager sponsored me to start my CIPD studies and the rest as they say is history.
By 2004 I decided that now was the time to break free from the corporate world and build my own independent HR consultancy to work with clients who were too small for their own HR Department.
Having stumbled across a copy of the RSPB Handbook, Redwing Solutions was born. The Redwing is a little bird, the same size as a Thrush, a winter visitor to our shores.
Thrush Solutions wouldn't have really worked!
I didn't realise that demand for friendly, HR Consultancy, support that didn't tell employers off, and didn't tell them what they were not allowed to do, would prove very popular.
"It was only meant to keep me out of trouble!".
Today, Redwing Solutions works with clients across the country, in all sectors, from Arts organisations to heavy industry. Some clients remain too small for their own HR Department which is why they outsource to HR Consultants, others have their own, but like working with independent HR Consultants who can support their HR teams.
Redwing Solution's specialise in HR for Early Years supporting Day Nurseries, Pre- schools and Out of Hours clubs.

Before they went down to the nitty gritty of the album, the girls took the media through what went into it. There had been a patent change in the group's style and concept for this album.
"I wore a wig to our previous activities so that my hairstyle would not be revealed before the album release", says lead dancer Yuqi, who now spots an adorable bob hairdo. She likens her hairdo, which attracted compliments from her fellow bandmates, to a popular Korean snack — Choco Songyi.
Yuqi was not the only (G)I-DLE member whose hairdo underwent a huge transformation. Main vocalist Minnie changed her hair colour to dark red, a charismatic change from bright pink in the previous album "DUMDi DUMDi".
But their hairstyle was not the only thing that was switched up. (G)I-DLE's newest album shys away from their refreshing summer concept which fans saw last year, and will instead revolve around three main themes: winter, fire and flower this time. In that order.

The title number "Hwaa" is a moombahton track that features hints of oriental musical instruments.
Fans may notice that it bears some melodial resemblance to the sextet's 2018 release "Haan". And this was intended. Because "Haan", "Hwaa", and the album's first track are conceptually linked.
(G)I-DLE wants to convey the various sombre and heavy emotions that one may experience through a heartbreak in their upcoming album. But off the record, they have some light-hearted wishes for the new year.
"My wish is to have a world tour this year", says leader Soyeon. (G)I-DLE's world tour, which was slated for cities in Asia, Europe and the United States was unfortunately called off because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The girl group have also set their sights on clinching the top spot on music charts and shows. -HallyuLife.com

The partnership between artist and musician is always a fascinating relationship to observe, especially when the results become iconic album covers, astounding museum exhibitions, and monumental musical performances.
In celebration of the opening of Wangechi Mutu's The End of eating Everything featuring singer/producer Santigold, check out five other fantastic collaborations that have resulted in these inspiring projects.
Takashi Murakami LOVES to collaborate with musicians, teaming up with artists including Billie Eilish and Kanye West. Takashi worked with Pharrell to create a sculpture encrusted with 26,000 diamonds and gems titled "The Simple Things," 2008-9, to help illustrate the metaphor of value and what it means to us personally. It was exhibited at Art Basel in 2009.
Australian artist Lynette Wallworth invited Antony Hegarty (ANOHNI) on a ten-day trip to meet the Martu population of the Parnngurr community in Western Australia Pilbara region. From this experience, Wallworth directed a video that shared this cross-cultural exchange, having lived and worked with the Martu artists, helping share their story to the world.
Keith Haring not only featured alongside Andy Warhol in this bold 1986 Grace Jones video, but also used Grace's body as a canvas during an eighteen-hour marathon body-painting session. It doesn't get much more epic than that!
The End of eating Everything by Wangechi Mutu is on view through November 25th 2018 and is shown in conjunction with the exhibition Making Africa: A Continent of Contemporary Design, on view in our Butler Gallery from October 14, 2018 through January 06, 2019.

Chicago police have arrested a man suspected of biting off part of another man's left ear Thursday morning during an attack across the street from the Art Institute of Chicago where he works, authorities said.
The victim was standing on the sidewalk on South Michigan Avenue around 6:45 a.m. when a man walked up and asked if he had a cigarette, police said. The first man said no, and the other man punched him in the head and bit off part of his ear.
The attacker ran off and the victim went to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where he was listed as stable. A manager at a Cosi restaurant said the victim took a cab to the hospital.
The manager said he recovered the severed ear and gave it to police, according to WGN-TV.
Officers arrested a suspect later in the afternoon and criminal charges were pending, according to a spokesman for police Superintendent Eddie Johnson.
The victim works at the Art Institute, according to spokeswoman Kati Murphy.
It directed questions about the attack to the Police Department.

Vicksburg, S. & P. R. Co. v. Smith, 135 U.S. 195 (1890)
Vicksburg, Shreveport & Pacific Railroad Company
Decided April 21, 1890
STATES FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
A suit was brought to recover from T. possession of a tract of land of about 35 acres, part of a larger tract of 186 acres which the plaintiff claimed to own. The lessor of T. of the 35 acres was made defendant, and answered, claiming to own the land sued for and also the rest of the 186 acres. The plaintiff recovered a judgment for the 35 acres, their value not exceeding $2,000. The value of the 186 acres was about $10,000. The lessor having brought the case to this Court by a writ of error, it was dismissed on the ground that the amount involved was not sufficient to give this Court jurisdiction, because it did not exceed $5,000, exclusive of costs.
MR. JUSTICE BLATCHFORD delivered the opinion of the Court.
This is an action at law, brought in the Circuit Court of the United States for the Western District of Louisiana by
Robert N. Smith, Elizabeth A. Smith (wife of Marine Duvall, joined, authorized, and assisted by her husband), William L. Smith, Elizabeth W. Smith (widow of James F. Smith), citizens of Kentucky, and John S. Smith, a citizen of Colorado, as legal heirs of William W. Smith, deceased, against George A. Turner, a citizen of Louisiana.
The petition avers that the State of Louisiana, on the 14th of May, 1853, sold to William W. Smith a certain tract of land known as "Silver Lake," situated in section 31, township 18, ranges 13 and 14, in the Parish of Caddo, in the State of Louisiana, containing an area of 186.57 acres at the maximum price of $1.25 per acre, which at the same time was paid into the treasury of the state by said Smith; that after that sale, and on the 24th of February, 1855, the state issued a patent for said tract of land to Smith; that it acquired said tract as swamp and overflowed land, granted to it by the acts of Congress of 1849 and 1850, and sold the land to Smith as swamp and overflowed land; that all sales of land in Louisiana, claimed by the state as swamp and overflowed lands, whether made by the United States or by the state, and whether the land sold was of that character or not, were confirmed by the Act of Congress of March 2, 1855, entitled "An act for the relief of purchasers and locators of swamp and overflowed lands;" that the act of 1855 was extended to sales made after its passage, and was continued in force, by the Act of March 3, 1857, to confirm all selections of swamp and overflowed lands by the several states under the acts of 1849 and 1850; that the act of 1855 confirmed the title of Smith to the tract of land known as "Silver Lake," whether it belonged to the state under the swamp land acts of Congress or whether it belonged to the United States; that Smith acquired a title to the land both from the state and the United States by purchase and by confirmation by act of Congress; that that title is paramount to all subsequent claims from the government, and is indefeasible under the act of confirmation of March 2, 1855; that the plaintiffs are the owners of the tract of land known as "Silver Lake," which is illegally withheld from them, and a part of it, containing 40 acres or more, is
in the possession of George A. Turner, a citizen of Louisiana, who refuses to deliver to the plaintiffs that part of the land, and that the part in the possession of Turner is worth at least $600. The prayer of the petition is for a citation to Turner, and for judgment for the recovery of said tract of land in his possession, with its revenues from judicial demand.
Turner was served with a citation, and put in an answer alleging that he was in the possession of a portion of the property described in the petition, as a tenant of the Vicksburg, Shreveport & Pacific Railroad Company, and praying that his said lessor and the owner of the property be made defendant, and he be discharged. An order was made by the court that the company be made a defendant in his place, and a citation was issued to it, with which its president was duly served. It was a Louisiana corporation.
The company first filed an exception to the capacity of the plaintiffs to sue, on the ground that they were not the legal heirs of Smith, and, if they were, were not his sole heirs. This exception was tried and overruled. A plea and exception of res adjudicata to the suit was then filed by the company, on the ground that, in a suit entitled "The State of Louisiana v. W. W. Smith," in the District Court of Caddo Parish, Smith put at issue the validity and legality of his title to the land described in the plaintiffs' petition under the certificate and patent described therein; that upon a final hearing, judgment was rendered in that suit decreeing said certificate and patent null and void, and that they be cancelled and delivered to the State of Louisiana, and that the plaintiffs, the heirs of Smith, were bound by the judgment in that suit.
The company also put in an answer to the petition denying its allegations, and alleging that the sale or entry of the land, as set forth in the petition, was cancelled by the register of the state land office on the 10th of June, 1853, and the cancellation was duly notified to Smith; that the sale, entry, and patent were without authority of law, for reasons set forth in the answer; that the land was never selected by the State of Louisiana as swamp and overflowed lands, and never reported to the Commissioner of the General Land Office, and never
approved as such by the Surveyor General, the Secretary of the Interior, or the Commissioner of the General Land Office, and never listed or returned by the Secretary of the Interior to the state as swamp and overflowed lands; that the state had never claimed or acquired the land as such; that the land did not belong to that class of lands, but to the other class, known or designated as "shallow lakes," and therefore was not embraced in the grant from the United States of swamp and overflowed lands under the acts of Congress of 1849 and 1850; that the company was the owner of the land, by grant from the United States to the state, under the Act of Congress of June 3, 1856, to aid in the construction of railroads in the state, and which was accepted by the state for that purpose; that, all the requirements of said grant having been complied with by the state and by the Vicksburg, Shreveport and Texas Railroad Company, the land described in the petition, being embraced in that grant, was acquired by that company and duly certified or patented by the United States as belonging to that company, and had been legally sold or transferred by it to the defendant company, and that the land described in the petition, and sought to be recovered in the suit, was worth at least $10,000. The answer prayed that the plaintiffs' demand be rejected, and for judgment decreeing the company "to be the owner of said land, and quieted in possession thereof, and for general relief."
The case was tried by a jury, which rendered the following verdict: "We, the jury, find for plaintiffs, and that the land sued for is described in the plat made by W. R. Devoe, and filed in evidence." A motion for a new trial was made and overruled, and a judgment was entered against Turner and the company, adjudging that the plaintiffs were the owners of the land in controversy, and entitled to its possession, the land "being known and described as follows," and then giving a description of it by courses and distances,
"containing thirty-five 18/100 acres, situated in the Parish of Caddo, Louisiana, and as shown and described on map and survey of same made by W. R. Devoe, civil engineer, on file and of record in said cause."
The judgment also ordered that writs
of possession issue in favor of the plaintiffs, and against the defendants; that the plaintiffs have judgment against the defendants for costs, and that the plea of res adjudicata be overruled. The railroad company has brought a writ of error to review the judgment.
There are six bills of exceptions found in the record. One of them states that on the trial the company offered three persons as competent witnesses to prove that the land described and claimed by the plaintiffs in their petition, under a certificate and patent from the State of Louisiana,
"and which is claimed by defendant under a grant from the United States government to the State of Louisiana to aid said railroad, and for which defendant prays judgment, recognizing their ownership,"
etc., was worth $10,000; that the plaintiffs' counsel objected on the ground that the only part of the Silver Lake tract of 186.57 acres that was in controversy in this suit was the part alleged to be in the possession of Turner, "and it was admitted by counsel for defendant that said part or parcel of land was not worth exceeding two thousand dollars." The bill of exceptions states that the objection of the plaintiffs was sustained by the court, on the ground that the petition claimed only the number of acres in the possession of Turner; that the judgment in this case, if for the plaintiffs, could affect only the land held by him, and that the claim set up by him or by the railroad company did not make this a suit for more than the number of acres of land claimed by the plaintiffs, "which is about forty acres, more or less, and is shown by admission of counsel not to be worth more than two thousand dollars." The plaintiffs move to dismiss the writ of error on the ground that the matter in dispute does not exceed the sum of $5,000, exclusive of costs. The railroad company contends that the plaintiffs, by their petition, claim to be the owners of the entire Silver Lake tract of 186.57 acres; that the company by its answer also claims title to the entire tract; that it is stated by the court, in one of the bills of exceptions, that, if the suit involves title to the 186.57 acres, the land "is worth about $10,000, as is admitted by counsel for plaintiffs;" and that therefore this Court has jurisdiction of the writ of error.
But we are of opinion that this Court is without jurisdiction of the case. All that the plaintiffs, in their petition, claimed to recover was the part of the land which was in the possession of Turner, alleged therein to contain 40 acres or more. The answer alleged that the land sought to be recovered in the suit was worth at least $10,000, and prayed that the plaintiffs' demand be rejected, and for judgment decreeing the company "to be the owner of said land." This put in issue only the land in the possession of Turner. The judgment is limited to a piece of land described by metes and bounds, and containing 35 18/100 acres, as shown by a map and survey of the same on file and of record in the cause. The value of that parcel of land is shown clearly to be not over $2,000, and this is conclusive as to our jurisdiction. Elgin v. Marshall, 106 U. S. 578, and cases there cited; Opelika City v. Daniel, 109 U. S. 108; Bruce v. Manchester & Keene Railroad, 117 U. S. 514; Gibson v. Shufeldt, 122 U. S. 24.
Writ of error dismissed.

Q: ListActivity não funciona Android Eu tenho uma Activity com um botão chamando uma List Activity. Essa ListActivity cria rapidamente uma lista de string, só quero mostrar essa lista na tela e exibir em um Toast o item selecionado.
Mas não está funcionando! Segue o código da classe Lista
public class Lista extends ListActivity{

    protected void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        String[] itens = new String[]{"João","josé","pedro",};
    ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,itens);
    setListAdapter(adapter);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
        super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);

        Object o = this.getListAdapter().getItem(position);
        String item = o.toString();
        Toast.makeText(this, "Clicou em: "+item, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

}

O que está faltando?

A: O código Java é case-sensitive, isso quer dizer que Double é diferente de double, String é diferente string e assim por diante.
Logo, você tem um erro no seu código já que o método OnCreate não existe na classe ListActivity (e por sua vez, na Activity) que foi herdada e acontece que ela nunca é executada em sua classe. Portanto, você só precisa alterar o erro de grafia para onCreate na assinatura do método:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

É sempre bom utilizar a anotação @Override, assim garante que o método que está querendo redefinir realmente existe na super classe.

Music and sound can elicit a multitude of emotional and physical responses. But how can composers and sound designers manipulate the audience's senses beyond the sense of hearing? And what are the artistic and scientific implications of such compositions?
On 5 July, at a free public forum on Sensory Art organised by West Kowloon, award-winning experimental sound designer and composer Darrin Verhagen, senior Sound Design lecturer at the RMIT University (Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology), shares his understanding of how sound interacts with other senses, and how composers and sound designers play a manipulative role in shaping perceptual and emotional responses to multisensory artworks.

Space Drives: Experiments & Theories
Carnival 1 Comment
Eagleworks, the Johnson Space Center shoe-string "advanced propulsion lab" is now notorious for testing the theoretically impossible "EM-Drive", the related Cannae Q-Drive, and several other propellantless propulsion devices. What's more, their chief scientist Harold "Sonny" White has a theory of 'Quantum Vacuum Plasma Propulsion" that's has raised the ire of more orthodox physicists, because it posits that the quantum vacuum – the sea of virtual particles created by the various fields composing our world – can be used for 'jet propulsion', or distorted to produce propulsive effects.
The latest burst of hype – and this is not the first, as a bit of Googling will tell the reader – comes from the considered, measured bit of reportage that summarises the several year long discussion of the Q-Drive work by Paul March (aka Star-Drive) on the NASA Spaceflight Forum. Paul is the consulting engineer for Eagleworks and has long worked on speculative propulsion systems. He shares results and discusses well meant criticism of the Q-Drive/EM-Drive effort. Here's the NSF News Summary:
Evaluating NASA's Futuristic EM Drive (29 April 2015)
One of the co-authors is Dr Jose Rodal, who has worked indefatigably to refine the experimental testing by the Eagleworks crew and eliminate the (many) possible false-positives that might mimick thrust from a drive. While the reportage by the NSF team and Dr Rodal is measured and cautious, sadly the Nerdi-Verse has exploded with both incautious Boosters and dogmatic Nay-Sayers shouting and yelling about the concept, but neglecting to look at the facts, as presented on NSF over a considerable period of time.
Brian Wang's Next Big Future has reported on the EM-Drive/Q-Drive effort for years and the forum arguments there have raged as well, with the well-meant sceptics led by GoatGuy, whose physics knowledge and clear writing is very welcome in an often fractious, noisy forum. This little post was the possible vanguard of the current Hype-Storm:
Magnetron powered EM-drive construction expected to take two months …in which the EM-Drive, with Sonny White's computations, might produce 1250 newtons thrust from 100 kW of microwave power.
The basic device which has most recently produced positive results, in vacuum chamber tests, is based on Roger Shawyer's EM-Drive, an earlier and equally controversial propellantless propulsion system. What particularly irks orthodox physicists (and mathematical physicists, like Greg Egan) is Shawyer's claim that his EM-Drive works in a way that obeys relativity. That it violates conservation of momentum while doing so immediately hinted that Shawyer's mathematical treatment of his concept was incomplete – as Greg Egan was quick to point out.
Unfortunately for Shawyer's critics, positive results from his experiments, a Chinese team, and now Eagleworks, suggests that something is missing in our current best theoretical understanding of how the world works. But what? I made this comment recently on Facebook:
It's arguable whether it could be called a "hyper-space drive", but it's not a bad title. Here's why: currently Sonny's warp-drive concept requires the existence of the 5th dimension aka "Hyper-space" to work. If the Q-Drive/EM-Drive thingie is also confirmed, and is genetically related to the warp-drive, then it too probably works by some sort of 5-D effect. It almost certainly doesn't work via the dubious physics that Shawyer has invoked. The recent interferometer test which has produced data *suggestive* of a space-warp being generated via the modified Q-Drive rig would not work if plain vanilla General Relativity is 100% correct. There's just not enough energy density in the test device to warp space in an observable way. To produce a warp – as Sonny has said all along – requires the *existence* of Hyper-space. IFF the warp really is a warp, and not experimental noise, then it's evidence of Hyper-space. In some ways that's an even more incredible experimental outcome than some minor "violation" of action-reaction laws.
…which I will expand on in the sequel to this post. Before we go there, let's look at the landscape of "advanced propulsion", with some annotated links:
Roger Shawyer's EM-Drive site: SPR Ltd
Shawyer has written numerous papers over the last decade or so, and has had professionally translated the Chinese work that reported replication of his EM-Drive. Exactly what the Chinese space establishment make of this replication no one presently knows.
Mike McCulloch's Physics from the Edge
Mike is a radical physicist with a theory of inertia, based on the Unruh effect, which might explain the EM-Drive's positive results, as well as Dark Matter, Dark Energy and other cosmological mysteries. His EM-Drive paper is here: Can the EM-Drive be Explained by Quantised Inertia?
Eagleworks Lab is represented by a series of papers, some available on the NASA web-site:
Eagleworks Laboratories: Advanced Propulsion Physics Research (2011)
Warp Field Mechanics 101 (2011) – This paper was presented at the 2011 100 Year Star-Ship at Orlando Florida, which I presented at as well.
Warp Field Mechanics 102: Energy Optimization – This one was presented by Harold White at the 2013 Starship Congress, organised by Icarus Interstellar. Sonny proposes (highly speculative) ways that an actual warp-drive could be created for very "low" negative energy amounts.
After this rather abstract paper I personally felt Sonny's warp-concepts were interesting, but for the distant future. However another conference piece changed my mind. More soon. First, this now famous essay…
Anomalous Thrust Production from an RF Test Device Measured on a Low-Thrust Torsion Pendulum
An abstract for this paper, now liberated from an AIAA Pay-per-view. Confusingly, when this one first exploded into the Nerdi-Verse, only the abstract was reported on, causing many sceptics of the Drives to (incorrectly) assert that the tests had failed. What the tests had failed to do was be conducted in a vacuum chamber under vacuum conditions, which meant more attentive critics had reason for scepticism.
What hadn't hit public consciousness, but hit me was an earlier conference paper on Sonny's Q-Drive concept, based on old experimental work by Paul March on Jim Woodward's Mach Effect Thruster (MET). I won't discuss the MET here, as it's a whole other effort with a different theoretical basis, but genetically the MET experimental effort is what brought engineer Paul March into advanced propulsion, and finally working for Eagleworks.
Here's the conference paper: Advanced Propulsion Physics: Harnessing the Quantum Vacuum ,which exploded in my mind with the rather glorious prospect of flying to the Outer Planets in days, rather than years. Except the numbers didn't quite work, as I mentioned to both Paul and Sonny at the time.
Some of Sonny's earlier papers are linked at this early Crowlspace post: White Papers
At one point in time he worked with Eric Davis, uber advanced-propulsion guru, on the higher-dimensional aspects of the original warp-drive: The Alcubierre Warp Drive in Higher Dimensional Spacetime
Other theories of how the EM-Drive, or the related Cannae Q-Drive, might work have appeared since the current buzz began a couple of years ago. Fernando Minotti, an Argentinian physicist, has suggested one theoretical option using Scalar-Tensor theory, which is a mathematical alternative to General Relativity. In most physics tests, the two theories give identical results, but not all tests – the EM-Drive, and kin, might be one such example: Scalar-tensor theories and asymmetric resonant cavities
Minotti has pointed out a particular Scalar-Tensor theory of gravitation, developed by Jean Paul Mbelek, as the relevant theoretical basis. His work is represented on the arXiv here: Mbelek, Jean Paul
A more recent theoretical discussion has also appeared on the arXiv here: DEF: The Physical Basis of Electromagnetic Propulsion by Mario J. Pinheiro. Exactly what might come of his discussion is hard to judge. Only more experimental data can adequately guide us through so many theoretical choices.

"Dear children! Give thanks with me to the Most High for my presence with you. My heart is joyful watching the love and joy in the living of my messages. Many of you have responded, but I wait for, and seek, all the hearts that have fallen asleep to awaken from the sleep of unbelief. Little children, draw even closer to my Immaculate Heart so that I can lead all of you toward eternity. Thank you for having responded to my call."
"Dear children! May this time be for you a time of prayer and silence. Rest your body and spirit, may they be in God's love. Permit me, little children, to lead you, open your hearts to the Holy Spirit so that all the good that is in you may blossom and bear fruit one hundred fold. Begin and end the day with prayer with the heart. Thank you for having responded to my call."

Q: Instagram Scraper with Selenium I keep getting this message

"Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"css selector","selector":".MGdpg > button:nth-child(1)"}"

while i was scraping a 500 comments post on Instagram and end up only getting 10 comments. is there any problem with the code?
from selenium import webdriver
import time
import sys

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get(sys.argv[1])
time.sleep(3)

#if user not logined
try:
    close_button = driver.find_element_by_class_name('xqRnw')
    close_button.click()
except:
    pass

try:
    load_more_comment = driver.find_element_by_css_selector('.MGdpg > button:nth-child(1)')
    print("Found {}".format(str(load_more_comment)))
    i = 0
    while load_more_comment.is_displayed() and i < int(sys.argv[2]):
        load_more_comment.click()
        time.sleep(2.5)
        load_more_comment = driver.find_element_by_css_selector('.MGdpg > button:nth-child(1)')
        print("Found {}".format(str(load_more_comment)))
        i += 1
except Exception as e:
    print(e)
    pass

user_names = []
user_comments = []
comment = driver.find_elements_by_class_name('gElp9 ')
for c in comment:
    container = c.find_element_by_class_name('C4VMK')
    name = container.find_element_by_class_name('_6lAjh').text
    content = container.find_element_by_tag_name('span').text
    content = content.replace('\n', ' ').strip().rstrip()
    user_names.append(name)
    user_comments.append(content)

user_names.pop(0)
user_comments.pop(0)
import excel_exporter
excel_exporter.export(user_names, user_comments)

driver.close()

btw the code belongs to Agi Maulana. You can check his Github repo regarding to this

This is the Lely weeder that we acquired last year; it cost us I think in the vicinity of seventeen to eighteen hundred bucks. We bought it at that time with the gauge wheels which is an optional thing. I like it because it controls the height a little better. If you're in an area where your tractor makes a little dip you don't have that action of digging in. The gauge wheel keeps it, floats it, and gives it a little bit more regulation and flotation over the top. I use them also to adjust the tension of the springs. Just by pulling this up I can get more action on top of the crop - just by raising and lowering the gauge wheels. The normal way to adjust these is by moving this spring back and forth bracket and as you can see on this machine that takes quite a while so we use the gauge wheels and as a matter of fact we use gauge wheels on pretty much all of your three point hitch cultivators.
This is an updated version of an old Dearborn weeder which they used in the thirties and how it works is that these tines will vibrate as it goes over the crop. I use the Lely specifically for potatoes, up to certain growth stages on my leafy crops, and when crops get a lot larger. Spinach, four or five inches high, I won't use it anymore. I also use it in conjunction with my baskets a lot of times. The baskets will churn up in between the rows and the action will break up the clods and it will also mulch around the plants. So I use it not only as a separate tool but often in conjunction with another tool.
Our soil is very sandy so in the land that is very sandy this is well suited for shallow cultivation. Of course we don't want to disturb much soil, one either to turn up weeds and two to let any of the moisture out, especially in a year like this where it's so dry.
So this is an idea thing, you have to use it at least weekly. I'm pretty good about it except during strawberry season. Things get ahead of us but if you use it weekly you can get weeds out without even having to go through and hand hoe. So it's an important item especially in the smaller vegetables.


John Stepper is preparing his e-book for publication on the topic of working out loud. John's approach is nurturing and community-led. It has network theory at its heart, it is a transformative experience of turning inside-out the norms of (knowledge) work.
thirdly, I start new conversations, potentially a new movement in my work / network community; and from this, ALWAYS, greatness emerges, somehow.
Working Out Loud is a dose of crazed magic in the otherwise nature of things. Try it.

A three-phonon interaction mechanism is proposed to account for thermal-conductivity data in SrTiO3 and KTaO3. The model qualitatively explains the observed strong resonant scattering, its temperature and electric field dependence, and the differences between the two materials.
