Many parents of young children at Spokane, Cheney Orthodontics Dentistry share the common concern of timing in getting their children in to be seen for an orthodontic assessment. Often, they are surprised to learn that the best time to deal with potential orthodontic issues is sooner rather than later.
Some of these parents are under the impression that their child must be an adolescent with severe alignment issues to be considered for orthodontic treatment. Today I'd like to clear up some of the misconceptions about early orthodontic treatment.
Any dentist trained in early orthodontics will tell you the opposite is true. We know that the optimum time for your child to be seen in order to address the possible need for early orthodontics (also known as preventative or phase one orthodontic treatment) is between 5 and 12 years of age are. The younger the child is, the sooner we can start monitoring the growth of their jaw and any potential alignment issues. It also allows us to develop an individualized treatment plan for your child.
Not necessarily - by monitoring the development of the child's teeth at an early age it is often possible to use orthodontic appliances and other methods to help promote proper tooth alignment, potentially eliminating the need for more extensive orthodontic treatment later. A child may still require braces, but the treatment time is normally shortened because of early orthodontic treatment.
If you have questions or concerns about early orthodontic treatment for your child, do not hesitate to contact our office to address these issues during a free consultation.
A new patient to my practice was talking about her children and expressed particular concern about her five-year old who she thought might have orthodontic alignment issues. She was surprised when I urged her to bring her young daughter in for an orthodontic assessment as soon as possible.

My child will have to wait until they are older to see an orthodontist.

At this stage we can start to monitor their jaw growth and the potential resulting alignment of their teeth. It further enables us to develop an individualized treatment plan for your child.

How do I know if my child is a candidate for early orthodontics?

Justin Wright's Expo 70 never disappoints around here, and his latest slab of sonic dread is no different. Laced with drones, heavy and leaden as cinder block bunkers, and shot through with a cosmic strain of psychedelia that unwinds as much as unravels the soul; Kinetic Tones is another massive album for the band. Forty minutes, four tracks and all dense sonic tumbles through the Kosmiche eye. The album creeps in slow and steady, with a desolate dronescape that dredges up all those Earth comparisons, then things expand into heady territory, shifting to sweeping alien psych that feels as removed from the concept of pop music as possible. There's always a sense of foreboding present on Expo 70's releases and it rears its head here as well. For its reliance on limited melodic motion, drone knows how to play the long game, and here the tonal shifts slowly grip the listener like low level panic until it feels like it might overwhelm.
The record is dedicated to an endangered species of Indonesian bird of prey, the Flores Hawk-eagle, and its almost easy to see how the life of such an animal might influence the pieces here. The feelings embedded in Wright's drones are atmospheric, towering above us in a detached freedom, but the sense of loss, loneliness and uncertainty of survival run deep. The closer "Ascension From Dusk" has the kind of masterful mix of sour stomach dread and reluctant acceptance that made the best John Carpenter soundtracks stick long after the credits rolled. This one's another keeper in Expo 70's long (40+) discography.

How can the Dolphins be 'getting closer' to a Deshaun Watson trade?
By Dennis Young
What is going on in Miami?
The Dolphins are on the verge of trading for quarterback Deshaun Watson, according to a Houston Chronicle report that raises more questions than it answers.
The first one, obviously, is what exactly the Dolphins are up to. Watson hasn't played a game (or practiced alongside the Texans) since 22 women filed lawsuits against him accusing the quarterback of sexual abuse in massage rooms. Watson hasn't been criminally charged, but police and NFL investigations are reportedly ongoing. In recent years, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has placed players (like Antonio Brown in 2019) on the exempt list when they have a serious legal situation pending. Most recently, though, the NFL has said that there are "no restrictions" on Watson.
According to Wednesday's report, "Teams that have been interested in Watson have told the Texans they want the quarterback's legal issues to be settled before making the deal."
But Watson's legal issues are far from settled. The lawsuits, investigations and Watson's trade demand remain; the only thing that appears to have changed is that the Dolphins and Tua Tagovailoa have stunk it up in a 1-5 start, even losing to Urban Meyer's Jaguars in London on Sunday. So now the teams "could finally be getting closer" and "the Dolphins seem more determined to finally execute the Watson trade," according to the Chronicle.
It's been reported all season that Dolphins owner Stephen Ross, the New York City real estate developer behind Hudson Yards, has been hounding his front office to trade for Watson, but the front office has so far held out. (In a very NFL development, the roadblock to a Watson trade for Miami isn't the outstanding sexual assault allegations. It's the Texans' demand for five draft picks, including three first-rounders.)
So maybe with the Dolphins careening towards disaster before the Nov. 2 trade deadline, Ross has overruled his employees. But even if the Texans find a team to take Watson off their hands, it's not at all clear that he would be able to play right away.
The NFL is conducting its own separate investigation of Watson, although several of his accusers have said the league's questioning of them was ham-fisted and inappropriate. In August, two women told Sports Illustrated that NFL investigators asked them what they were wearing and repeatedly cut them off mid-answer, unlike the Houston police investigating Watson.

A: I spent countless hours trying to get Kibana to work on Arch and Manjaro. I finally succeeded.
Below are my notes to myself, in case someone else has the same problem.
Be aware that I am a newbie, and frankly, I don't know what I am doing, so proceed with caution.

*

*Install Kibana after installing elasticsearch
In Arch, is used this command:
$sudo pacman -S kibana

In Manjaro, I used the Add/Remove Software GUI. Searched for kibana, clicked Install, and Apply

*After installation of Kibana, I changed these settings in /etc/kibana/kibana.yml (uncomment the lines below):

$ sudo nano /etc/kibana/kibana.yml

#server.port: 5601
#server.host: "localhost"
#elasticsearch.hosts: ["http://localhost:9200"]

*Kibana requires node, but Kibana 7.9.2-1 does not work with the latest node version. So you need an older version of Node to work, specifically Node 10.22.1. To install this older version of Node, I used NVM (Node Version Manager).

I ran these commands:
$ curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.37.0/install.sh | bash
$ export NVM_DIR="$([ -z "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME-}" ] && printf %s "${HOME}/.nvm" || printf %s "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/nvm")"
$ [ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"

*Using NVM, install Node 10.22.1.

$ nvm install v10.22.1

This will install the binary file called "node" in this location: /home/manjaro1/.nvm/versions/node/v10.22.1/bin
(be aware that the .nvm directory is hidden)

*After installation, I renamed my existing node file (/usr/bin/node) to (/usr/bin/node) I used these commands to achieve that:

$ cd /usr/bin
$ sudo mv -- node node_backup

Caution: I do not know if renaming this file is a good idea, in regards to other programs.

*I then copied my new node file to the /usr/bin, with this command (making sure I ran the command from the /usr/bin directory):

$ cd /usr/bin
$ sudo cp -- /home/manjaro1/.nvm/version/node/v10.22.1/bin/node node

*I enabled Kibana to run on startup:

$ systemctl enable kibana

*I then started Kibana

$ systemctl start kibana

*And checked the status:

$ systemctl status kibana

*Everything looked good. I then made sure Elasticsearch was running (systemctl status elasticsearch) and opened a browser, and went to
localhost:5601
After a few seconds, the Kibana control panel appeared.

Useful Notes

*

*In step 5 and 6 above, you can possibly leave the existing node file in /usr/bin, and copy the version 10.22.1 node file to /usr/bin with a new name, for example node10221.  In that case, you need to make a change in this file: /usr/lib/systemd/system/kibana.service with:

$ sudo nano /usr/lib/systemd/system/kibana.service

In the line that starts with ExecStart=/usr/bin/node change the file name to the new node name, like this:
ExecStart=/usr/bin/node10221

Save the file and start or restart Kibana:
$ systemctl start kibana

or
$ systemctl restart kibana

*Make sure you are using eleasticsearch 7.9.2-1 and Kibana 7.9.2-1 and install elasticsearch before Kibana

*If something is wrong when you run:
$ systemctl status kibana

you can trouble shoot using:
$ journalctl -fu kibana.service

*If Kibana fails to start because of permission issues, check permissions with this command:

$ ls -l

*My installation is only running locally, so using localhost in kibana.yml works fine for me. It is my understanding you need to change this, if you want to allow remote access.

I hope this helps someone.

The Ecologist Guide to Food
Food quality and farmers' incomes under threat from new trade treaties
By Administrator, April 25, 2014
Dora Clouttick caught up with Tracy Worcester, acclaimed film maker and activist behind the bold new campaign group Farms Not Factories
Forked: What are the biggest food challenges currently facing us (UK or globally)?
Tracy Worcester: The biggest food challenge currently facing us are the new free trade treaties that will dismantle most of the rules that have been fought for in an attempt to protect food quality, farmers' incomes and our beleaguered animals. The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) and The Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) are negotiated in secret and designed by giant organizations to 'harmonise' rules to facilitate 'free and fair' access to markets ie unhindered by regulations. If a business deems a rule 'unscientific', like using the precautionary principal to ban a product or give information through product labelling, corporations can sue using a 'state dispute settlement mechanism (isds)' via an independent arbitration court that can either get the rule changed that they deem is a barrier to trade or fine a government for undermining present or future corporate profits.
Cases like Syngenta taking the EU government to court for banning neonicotinoids will increase exponentially and have a chilling effect on governments deterring them from introducing new legislation. How can regulations be 'harmonised' when the standards between nations and regional blocks are so different? For example in the area of chemicals, in the EU it is up to producers to prove that their product isn't hazardous whereas in the US it is risk based, i.e the onus is on the regulatory authorities to prove that there is a scientific risk. As a consequence, in the EU there are 1,200 substances that are deemed hazardous and should not be used in cosmetics and in the US there are none.
Forked: Is enough being done to address these issues/problems? If not, what needs doing?
TW: Our politicians should each be sent pillows to signify that they are sleeping while their powers and responsibilities are being systematically dismantled by these trade treaties. The so called 'trickle-down effect' has been proved to be a myth, so it is time we sued our politicians for putting the profits of big business before the health and wellbeing of the electorate. By paying for elections through the public purse, we could ensure that we are the paymasters of our politicians not big business. Through funding information about the true cost of 'cheap' products, we could initiate a grass roots revolution whereby informed consumers simply refuse to buy products that don't follow the rules of the kind of world we want to leave to our grandchildren.
Forked: What are you currently working on?
In response to many consumers saying that they would like to buy high welfare pork, but it is more expensive and it won't make any difference if they act alone, I launched 'The Pig Ask', a global consumer- focused campaign aimed at shifting buying habits away from factory farmed pork – for good.
Forked: Who, in the food sphere, have you recently found inspiring?
The UN, even as the United States government continues to push for the use of more chemically-intensive and corporate-dominated farming methods such as GMOs and monoculture-based crops, a report published by the United Nations is once again sounding the alarm about the urgent need to return to (and develop) a more sustainable, natural and organic system. That was the key point of a new publication from the UN Commission on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) titled "Trade and Environment Review 2013: Wake Up Before It Is Too Late," which included contributions from more than 60 experts around the world. The cover of the report looks like that of a blockbuster documentary or Hollywood movie, and the dramatic nature of the title cannot be understated: The time is now to switch back to our natural farming roots.
Forked: Can you give me three words to sum up/describe the current food system?
TW: Nutritionally Deficient Frankenfoods.

Will American and Chinese Societies Support a New Type of Cold War?
Flashpoints | Diplomacy
Leaders on both sides are taking a more confrontational line, but are the people willing to go along?
By Matt Ferchen and Hanns W. Maull for The Diplomat
Credit: Official White House Photo by Shealah Craighead
As bilateral relations between America and China continue to deteriorate, pundits seem to be converging on a "new type of Cold War" as the most plausible scenario for future world politics. That assumes that both societies will allow their leaders to rouse them for that contest. But will they?
If the world is heading into a new Cold War, it is worth reflecting on how it got into, and out of, the old Cold War. In the last analysis, such global contests are decided by societies: it is the people who have to sustain the effort and carry the burden of prolonged great power competition. So it is worth asking how the Chinese and American people will respond to the "call to arms" (so far mostly metaphorically) by their leaders for that new type of Cold War?
Building long-lasting and broad-based social support for the burdens associated with a new Cold War won't be easy. In the first half of the 20th century, in the wake of World War I and after the Great Depression, American society and politics largely failed to support a greater American role and responsibility in global affairs. It took the Battle of Britain and Pearl Harbor to bring America into World War II and to forge domestic support for a new, post-war international order in which the United States took center stage. Even during the Cold War, mobilizing American society to support and sustain a global contest against the Soviet Union at times was difficult and risky; the means deployed by politicians — such as stirring anti-communist paranoia — sometimes took American democracy to the brink.
Now, with American society riven by polarizing political and socioeconomic cleavages, some of its leaders, including the president, are zooming in on a new enemy, China, to unite and rouse the United States. What may have begun as a calculated effort to establish "reciprocity" and a "fair playing field" in U.S.-China trade relations risks degenerating into an all-out effort to mobilize the country, complete with "clash of civilizations" and racial overtones, against the latest in a long line of perceived existential threats.
Of course, China's leaders are not newcomers to the game of mobilizing society against foreign threats, real and imagined. On several occasions, Mao Zedong fanned the flames of Chinese public animosity against the United States to bolster his efforts at "permanent revolution," including bringing China and the U.S. to the brink of armed conflict over Taiwan in 1958. After the Tiananmen protests and massacre in 1989, China launched its "patriotic education" campaign to imbue future generations of Chinese youth with nationalist sentiment: reinvigorating the message that never again was China to be "humiliated" by the West. Since claiming the top job in the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in 2012, Xi Jinping has doubled down on nationalist slogans like the "great rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation," the Chinese counterpart to "Make America Great Again." Overall, and especially in light of the coronavirus pandemic, the CCP propaganda machine has gone into high gear to foment public anger at American and other foreign criticisms of China's response to the virus. Despite Foreign Minister Wang Yi's recent claim that only the United States is provoking a new Cold War, Chinese leaders are in the midst of a full-scale re-evaluation of longstanding commitments to interdependence, including calls for societal sacrifice in the name of "self-reliance" and "strategic autonomy."
At the same time, even in the middle of the trade war with the United States, Chinese officials continued to cultivate foreign direct investment from American and European companies in China. Similarly, the seemingly straightforward bipartisan consensus on China in the United States belies a great deal of variation in positions and interests even among the most hawkish of China hawks. Those contradictions may seem puzzling at first glance, but they point to a big obstacle in the way of forging broad societal backing for a new type of Cold War: China and the United States remain deeply intertwined, not only commercially but also socially and even culturally. Even if their current leaders are dead-set on propelling them into a new, multigenerational Cold War style rivalry, Chinese and American societies therefore have good reason to remain skeptical.
Efforts at "decoupling" and reducing interdependence will likely aggravate rather than resolve mutual vulnerabilities. Waging a new kind of Cold War would also be enormously risky and costly: the chances of "winning" are negligible while the risks of both paying a high price in the loss of wealth, power, and prestige are huge. Ultimately, even more serious than their very real bilateral conflicts of interest and values are the long-term challenges facing America and China: truly global problems such as climate change, pandemics, or runaway technological change,
Despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, both China and America are engaged in a race to the bottom, with powerful forces promoting conspiracy theories about the origins of the coronavirus amid rallying cries in support of an inevitable great power showdown. Ultimately, if they determine that their leaders' actions paving the way for a new Cold War are more likely to diminish than to bolster their country's prosperity, strength, and security, American and Chinese societies may yet choose not to show up for this 21st century existential rivalry.

Because mutual funds are made of a collection of shares of different companies from different industries, you don't have to worry about diversifying your portfolio on your own. Not having to worry about picking stocks from different companies is one less headache new investors will have to worry about.
Although the sooner you start, the better, it is never too late to start investing nor are you too old.
Anyone is capable of doing this! I will continue to explain the workings of mutual funds in future articles as well as other ways to invest in future articles.

Q: Retrieving res.json() data from same node application I am currently developing API server using node.js and express.js. I want to know information about how long does each api take to response. For that, I am using response-time to get time taken.
app.use(responseTime(function(req, res, time) {
  var log = {
    "date" : new Date(),
    "os" : req.headers['user-agent'],
    "requestUrl" : req.originalUrl,
    "ipAddress" : req.ip,
    "requestMethod" : req.method,
    "statusCode" : res.statusCode,
    "statusMessage" : "",
    "timeTaken" : Math.floor(time),
    "data" : JSON.stringify(req.body)
  };
  // save log data
}));

For every API response, I use json method for error i.e. res.status(400).json({message: 'Something'}).
How can I retrive that json error message inside responseTime function?

A: Unfortunately, I don't think this is possible with this middleware. The response-time middleware stops timing just before the headers are sent (using onHeaders) which I believe is before the body is set on the response object. I'm not even sure if the body is ever set on the response object.
You could try using something like mung, in combination with `response-time?

A: The reason you can't access like that is because the response body is never set on the response object. Instead it is streamed directly to the client. So you'll have to manually collect the response body into the response object.
The easiest solution would be to always pass the body(error json in your case) into a custom field inside response object. For example in your route, add something like this:
get('/myErrorRoute', function(req, res, next) {
  var errJson = {message: 'Something'};
  res.myCustomField = errJson;
  res.status(400).json(errJson);
});

Then access it in your middleware like this:
app.use(responseTime(function(req, res, time) {
  var log = {
    "date" : new Date(),
    "os" : req.headers['user-agent'],
    "requestUrl" : req.originalUrl,
    "ipAddress" : req.ip,
    "requestMethod" : req.method,
    "statusCode" : res.statusCode,
    "statusMessage" : "",
    "timeTaken" : Math.floor(time),
    "data" : JSON.stringify(req.body)
  };
  // acces your custom field
  console.log(res.myCustomField);
}));

Or if you are daring, monkey patch the json() method to do so.

Pentagon SEX PEST John James active for years harassing women at work
ByAmerican Correspondent Austin Anderson
Sep 17, 2020 global247news, Pentagon SEX PEST John James active for years harassing women at work
A former top Pentagon official sexually harassed two female colleagues over seven years subjecting them to unwanted attention, including photographing the buttocks of one woman and giving the other massages during "mentoring" sessions, according to a report released yesterday.
The Pentagon official has been named as John James, who was executive director of the Missile Defense Agency and retired in February this year due to an investigation into his lewd behaviour.
The Department of Defense Office of Inspector General, substantiated complaints that James began sexually harassing the women in 2012, a year after he arrived at the agency, has been revealed in a report.
Officials further reported that James, who had a 37-year career, got treatment for his sick behavior in 2017 although the sexual harassment continued into 2019.
The report further revealed for seven years, James "repeatedly sought out and made deliberate, unwelcomed physical contact" with the first woman.
"Mr. James told us that his contacts with the woman were part of a mentoring relationship," the report said. "However, we found no evidence to support his assertion."
At an agency event in 2014, James snapped a pic of the woman's behind on her personal device as she walked to a food tent. She deleted it immediately after seeing it and reported it to her supervisor, though James denied taking the picture.
He also asked for her cellphone number, would shake her hand for uncomfortably long periods — which one witness described as "odd and creepy" and in 2018, told her he had been "chasing her for seven years."
The second woman was "an employee who Mr. James 'mentored,' by massaging her neck behind a closed door in his office on two occasions while making an inappropriate comment, 'I love this,' " according to the report.
The woman broke up the relationship but didn't report the gross conduct because she feared retaliation, the IG said. She eventually quit, in part over James' actions.
James denied he had harassed anyone, blaming the complaints on a disgruntled employee passed over for promotion.
"There's a modicum of truth in the interactions, but no intent for sexual harassment, or favors, or anything of that nature," he told investigators.

Please help me fix this

A: the error tells us that client is None. why? let's look at the docs:

voice_client_in(server)
Returns the voice client associated with a server.
If no voice client is found then None is returned.

Checking the cocs briefly, i assume you have to create the voiceclient first, if it doesn't exist yet. this can be done with Client.join_voice_channel.

Living Bravely On the Edge of a Big Change
May 29, 2018 / John Davey
I was Mad Donna's in East Nashville about to experience Liz Cooper's band play for the first time. This kid who worked in the kitchen who I knew from an open mic at Dino's told me to come out back with him. He wanted to show me his hangout spot. We went into this alley and in between two fenced in backyards there was a little nook with a tree stump in it. This kid (let's call him "Will") Will stood on the stump and produced a glass piece which he loaded up and lit. "I like to stand on this stump. People don't think to look over this way when they drive by." I tried it. I liked it. I love standing on things. Don't ask me why.
We went back inside in a much more aware-of-details state of mind just in time to catch Liz Cooper & the Stampede roar through their set. I was very moved by it. They're a really good band and Liz's distinctive guitar playing is about to catch on in a big way really soon.
After the set, I set out walking around this neighborhood in East Nashville, as I was wont to do. I walked about a mile, just ruminating on the set I had seen, my ears ringing, feeling inspired. I ended up sitting on a bench, eating a big slice of pizza, and recording this little voice memo in my phone which I still listen to from time to time. I texted this girl Mary from Michigan who I had been crushing on pretty hard (she's my wife now) and told her about my night.
Over the next few days this song "Brave" emerged. I was listening to a lot of Buck Owens & His Bucakaroos and feeling the bracing strength of a life lived according to one's convictions. I was right on the edge of making this big decision to move to Michigan. It was another major life change in such a short amount of time. I felt I was living in fast forward almost. So many things happening all at once. When it rains, it pours.
I would practice this song while my roommate was at work, the empty apartment to myself and the cat. I would sing it real loud. My drunk neighbor met me outside one day and asked if that was one of my songs he had heard me playing the night before. I said "yeah" and he told me he had a cousin who worked at Capitol Records and he'd pass the song along to him. Classic.
Fast forward about two and a half years. I'm in Michigan, I'm engaged, I have this band The Ancient Urge and this is one of the first songs we're arranging together. I really like the way it's coming together. It felt a little bit country, a little bit rock 'n roll. In the short-lived career of that band, "Brave" became an internal and crowd favorite. It was short, punchy, rolling, and the band always knocked it out of the park. We loved playing it and recording it out at camp.
Let this tune be an injunction to find that thing you are pleased with about yourself and amplify it for the edification of yourself and the ones you love.

Thanks to demand, know-how, and a focus on homegrown quality, American caviar now rivals some of the best in the world.
Think about caviar tasting and you're likely to imagine a spoonful of imported Beluga with a glass of French Champagne, or perhaps even Russian vodka and blini. But thanks to demand, know-how, and a focus on homegrown quality, American caviar now rivals some of the best in the world.
Technically speaking, caviar is the salted roe, or eggs, of a fish -- the most popular of which tends to be sturgeon, a prehistoric fish that inhabits in the waters of the Northern Hemisphere, from North American to China. The flavor of caviar—salty, slightly sweet, and earthy—was first enjoyed in Ancient Rome and Greece, and the delicacy gained even more popularity amongst the Russian tsars of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Depending on where it comes from, the species and the processing of the eggs after harvest, caviar can vary in texture, flavor, appearance, and traditionally the three best caviar producing sturgeon are the beluga, osetra and sevruga. In the past, most of these fish were harvested from the wild, but after the collapse of the USSR, the formerly controlled waters of the Caspian and Black seas opened up, which led to massive overfishing of the area. Twenty-six species of sturgeon are now considered endangered, and caviar from the Caspian Sea has been illegal in the U.S. since 2005 due to its status as an endangered species.
Because of these environmental concerns and the high price of importing foreign produced caviar, American fish hatcheries are getting into the caviar game with farm-raised caviar. Taste-wise, these products are on par with their foreign counterparts, and the homegrown caviar is often more affordable as well. With more and more products on the market, it's likely you can find American caviar to try at your local gourmet store; nearly all of these producers also take orders online.
Chefs like Wolfgang Puck and Thomas Keller are fans of California-based producer Tsar Nicoulai, which raises sustainable white sturgeon for their nutty, creamy Select California Estate Osetra. And Mote Caviar operates the nation's largest aquaculture research facility in Sarasota, Florida, where it raises Siberian sturgeon for its refreshing and silky caviar, which can be found at Whole Foods throughout the U.S.
Occasionally eggs from other fish are also used for caviar, including salmon, whitefish, and paddlefish. Shuckman's Kentucky Spoonfish Caviar comes from a fourth-generation Appalachian fish farmer who is raising Kentucky lake paddlefish for his mild roe. Or pick up the bright orange roe of Sunburst Original Trout Caviar, a family-owned fishery that has been raising freshwater rainbow trout since 1948.
No matter which caviar you choose, storage and temperature is important in keeping the caviar tasting its best. Once the caviar tin is opened, the fish eggs can change in quality quite quickly, developing stronger aromas and becoming softer in texture. Keep the caviar refrigerated, with storage like the Perfect Temp Drawer at 28F until you open it, and then consume within a day.

To almost nobody's surprise, twins Caleb and Cody Martin announced this week that they are returning to the Nevada Wolf Pack men's basketball program for their senior seasons. All of the pieces — senior Jordan Caroline also said this week he was coming back — are now firmly in place for the Pack to make a run to the Final Four. There are no more excuses. Anything less than another Mountain West regular season title and at least two wins in the NCAA tournament will make this coming season a huge disappointment. There's never been such lofty expectations placed on a Wolf Pack team in any season and in any sport.
Don't underestimate what it means to the Wolf Pack that both Martins are coming back. Caleb and Cody Martin are, quite simply, two of the best players to ever play for the Wolf Pack. The Martins could start on any Wolf Pack team in any season and make that team better. The two just might be among the top five players in school history when it comes to their overall game and amount of skills on the court. They are the total package. Work ethic, leadership, intelligence, competitive spirit. There is no way the Wolf Pack would have realized its full potential this coming season without the Martins.
There are so many opportunities for this Wolf Pack team to establish itself as the best in school history for any sport. Yes, even the 2010 football team could pale in comparison to what this basketball team might accomplish this year. The Final Four and a national championship, of course, are the ultimate goal. And those are realistic goals. But it's not unreasonable for us to expect this basketball team to also break the school record of 29 victories in a season, to win the Mountain West regular season and, yes, the postseason tournament and be ranked in the Top 10 nationally all season long. This Pack team could also turn in a perfect home season. It could become the first in school history to be ranked higher than ninth in The Associated Press national rankings and also become the first to get a NCAA tournament seed better than fifth.
The Wolf Pack is no longer just Northern Nevada's team. It is a national team with national talent and a national coach. Beating UNLV will always be a priority but the Pack's rivals are also now Villanova, Duke, North Carolina, Kansas and anyone else ranked in the Top 10 competing for a top three seed in the NCAA tournament. And don't for a second think that coach Eric Musselman isn't aware of all those lofty goals. He didn't come to Nevada to simply beat UNLV and win Mountain West championships.
This season is all about Musselman. The talent, experience, leadership and depth is on the roster. Musselman has put together the best team in Wolf Pack history. Heck, this roster might be good enough to split up and become two of the top 10 teams in school history. But right now the Pack has all the feel of an AAU team that is full of talent, egos and NBA dreams. Now, it's Musselman's job to make them a team. Don't bet against him.
Can the Wolf Pack average close to or even over 10,000 fans a game? Last year's team averaged 9,048 a game, breaking the record of 8,923 set by the 2016-17 team. Before that the record was 8,903 by the 2006-07 team. An average attendance of 9,500-plus should not be a problem, given all the excitement surrounding this team. Northern Nevada has fallen in love with the Musselmans, especially Eric, Danyelle and Mariah, as well as the core players on this team (the Martins, Caroline, Lindsey Drew). And don't forget that freshman Jordan Brown is the most exciting thing to hit Reno since the first arch in 1926. But a five-digit average attendance might be too steep to attain considering the home schedule includes the likes of South Dakota State, Pacific, Arkansas-Little Rock and Cal Baptist.
Musselman's biggest challenge with this overstocked Pack team will be trying to keep everyone happy. Now that the Martins and Caroline are back, that means the rest of the roster (as of Thursday, that included 13 other scholarship players) will have to somehow divvy up about 100 minutes a game. Musselman, of course, doesn't worry about hurting anyone's feelings. But he's never had a team this deep. It's one thing to coach a team that has about four guys who will play the vast majority of the minutes and take almost every shot, like the Wolf Pack has been since Musselman came to town. It's quite another to have about 10 guys who want a significant piece of the pie.

Vostrova G. A. The Mind's Ability of Neantisation in Early Sartre's Phenomenology of Creativity
The study was implemented in the framework of the Basic Research Program at the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE) in 2013 (project No. 56).
(National Research University Higher School of Economics, Moscow)
Abstract ♦ J.-P. Sartre's philosophical inquiry of begins with the issue of imagination. One of the philosopher's theoretical principles was the notion of the negativity of consciousness which is most fully embodied in creative work. In his early works, Sartre defines and studies creative imagination by means of a neologism he coined — "néantisation". The very moment of denial embodied in neantisating ability of imagining consciousness is considered to be the source and foundation of the beautiful as a value of the unreal world.
The article's objective is to analyze the creative constructiveness of the imagination act as the essential and transcendental condition of the consciousness in the phenomenology of early Sartre, including the discovery of historical and philosophical prerequisites of the specified position (in particular, Schopenhauer's interpretation of aesthetic contemplation as a human ability) and the identification of analogies of the selected approach in 20th century theory of art (i.e., N. Evreinov's transfiguration principle).
In his earlier works, Sartre noted the efficiency of the phenomenological theory in the study of image and investigation of emotions. He focused his interest on the analysis of the emotion, which constitutes the existential magical structure of the world. It is important that the sudden appearance of the magical world is preceded by the disappearance of the real world bound with cause-effect relationships. This moment can be regarded as a preliminary thesis in creating not only the phenomenological theory of imagination and imaginary philosopher, but also his later phenomenological concept of nothingness.
It seems that the study of creative imagination by means of Sartre's neologism "neantisation" (néantisation) is deeply seated in the philosophical tradition. Thus, Schopenhauer notes the importance and necessity of change in the subject (the act of self-denial involving the withdrawal of consciousness from its own will), which precedes the artistic creativity and provides a unique aesthetic vision of the world. An analogical sequence is found in Sartre: the imaginary mindset of the consciousness arises only under "the conversion to non-existence" of the real world, in other words, the artistic creation begins with a phenomenological destruction of the world by the consciousness turning from it away. Having driven this negativity to the maximum in his reconstruction of archaeological biographies of the "cursed poets", Sartre develops the theory of creation within the circle of non-freedom. Another analogy to Sartre's treatment of the imaginative consciousness can be found in N. Evreinov's transfiguration principle.
Hence, Sartre's "act of imagination taken in its totality", Schopenhauer's "pure and will-less subject of knowledge", and Evreinov's "will to transfiguration" interpret the act of imagination as the simultaneously constituting, isolating and destroying act.

The Streator Boosters were a  minor league baseball team based in Streator, Illinois. Beginning play as the Streator "Speedboys" in 1912, Streator teams played as members of the Class D level Illinois-Missouri League from 1912 to 1914 and the Bi-State League in 1915, winning the 1915 league championship. Streator hosted minor league home games at Streator City Park.

History
The Streator Speedboys began minor league baseball play, joining the 1912 Class D level Illinois-Missouri League. In their first season of play, Streator finished the regular season with a 46–65 record, placing last in the six–team Illinois–Missouri League standings and finishing the season 21.0 games behind the first place Lincoln Abes. The Speedboys played the season under Manager Jake Leuter. Streator finished behind the Lincoln Abes 70–47, Pekin Celestials 61–55, Canton Highlanders 57–56, Clinton Champs/Kankakee Kanks 56–56 and the Champaign-Urbana Velvets 53–64 in the standings. Streator played their home games at Streator City Park.

In their second season, the renamed Streator Boosters continued play in the 1913 Illinois–Missouri League. Streator placed fourth in the league with a record of 30–57, as two league teams folded during the season. Bob Coyle and Bob Kahl were the 1913 Streator managers. Streator ended the season 29.0 games behind the first place Lincoln Abes after both Pekin and Canton folded on July 19, 1913. Streator's Roy Phillips led the league with 13 home runs and teammate E.H. Kennedy had led league hitters with 92 total hits.

The 1914 Streator Boosters ended the Illinois–Missouri League regular season with a record of 40–48. Streator placed third in the Illinois–Missouri League standings, playing under managers John Ray and Henry Seebach. The Illinois–Missouri League saw the Lincoln Abes and Kankakee Kanks fold on July 3, 1914, ending the season with four teams as Streator finished 21.0 games behind the first place Champaign-Urbana Velvets. The Illinois–Missouri League permanently folded after the 1914 season.

After the demise of the Illinois–Missouri League, the 1915 Streator Boosters became charter members of the short–lived Class D level Bi-State League. The Aurora Foxes, Elgin Watch Makers, Freeport Pretzels, Ottawa Indians and Racine Belles joined Streator in the six-team league. On July 7, 1915, Streator was in 1st place with a 30–18 record when the Bi–State League permanently folded. Jack Herbert was the manager as Streator finished 1.5 games ahead of second place Racine, as Eddie Wise led the league with five home runs.

The Bi-State League did not return to play in 1915. Streator has not hosted another minor league team following the 1915 Streator Boosters.

The ballpark
Streator minor league teams played home games at Streator City Park. The Streator City Park is still in use today as a public park, located in the 200 block of North Park Street, Streator, Illinois.

Q: Facebook Messenger with Flask I'm trying to get the FB messenger API working using Python's Flask, adapting the following instructions: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/quickstart
So far, things have been going pretty well. I have verified my callback and am able to receive the messages I send using Messenger on my page, as in the logs in my heroku server indicate the appropriate packets of data are being received by my server. Right now I'm struggling a bit to send responses to the client messenging my app. In particular, I am not sure how to perform the following segment from the tutorial in Flask:
var token = "<page_access_token>";

function sendTextMessage(sender, text) {
  messageData = {
  text:text
}
request({
  url: 'https://graph.facebook.com/v2.6/me/messages',
  qs: {access_token:token},
  method: 'POST',
  json: {
    recipient: {id:sender},
    message: messageData,
  }
}, function(error, response, body) {
  if (error) {
    console.log('Error sending message: ', error);
  } else if (response.body.error) {
    console.log('Error: ', response.body.error);
  }
});
}

So far, I have this bit in my server-side Flask module:
@app.route('/', methods=["GET", "POST"])
def chatbot_response():
    data = json.loads(req_data)
    sender_id  = data["entry"][0]["messaging"][0]["sender"]["id"]
    url = "https://graph.facebook.com/v2.6/me/messages"
    qs_value = {"access_token": TOKEN_OMITTED}
    json_response = {"recipient": {"id": sender_id}, "message": "this is a test response message"}
    response = ("my response text", 200, {"url": url, "qs": qs_value, "method": "POST", "json": json_response})
    return response

However, running this, I find that while I can process what someone send my Page, it does not send a response back (i.e. nothing shows up in the messenger chat box). I'm new to Flask so any help would be greatly appreciated in doing the equivalent of the Javascript bit above in Flask.
Thanks!

A: This is the code that works for me:
data = json.loads(request.data)['entry'][0]['messaging']
for m in data:
  resp_id = m['sender']['id']
  resp_mess = {
    'recipient': {
      'id': resp_id,
    },
    'message': {
      'text': m['message']['text'],
    }
  }
  fb_response = requests.post(FB_MESSAGES_ENDPOINT,
                              params={"access_token": FB_TOKEN},
                              data=json.dumps(resp_mess),
                              headers = {'content-type': 'application/json'})

key differences:
message needs a text key for the actual response message, and you need to add the application/json content-type header.
Without the content-type header you get the The parameter recipient is required error response, and without the text key under message you get the param message must be non-empty error response.

A: This is the Flask example using fbmq library that works for me:
echo example :
from flask import Flask, request
from fbmq import Page

page = fbmq.Page(PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN)

@app.route('/webhook', methods=['POST'])
def webhook():
  page.handle_webhook(request.get_data(as_text=True))
  return "ok"

@page.handle_message
def message_handler(event):
  page.send(event.sender_id, event.message_text)

A: In that scenario in your tutorial, the node.js application is sending an HTTP POST request back to Facebook's servers, which then forwards the content on to the client.
So far, sounds like your Flask app is only receiving (AKA serving) HTTP requests. The reason is that that's what the Flask library is all about, and it's the only thing that Flask does.
To send an HTTP request back to Facebook, you can use any Python HTTP client library you like. There is one called urllib in the standard library, but it's a bit clunky to use... try the Requests library.
Since your request handler is delegating to an outgoing HTTP call, you need to look at the response to this sub-request also, to make sure everything went as planned.
Your handler may end up looking something like
import json
import os
from flask import app, request
# confusingly similar name, keep these straight in your head
import requests

FB_MESSAGES_ENDPOINT = "https://graph.facebook.com/v2.6/me/messages"

# good practice: don't keep secrets in files, one day you'll accidentally
# commit it and push it to github and then you'll be sad. in bash:
# $ export FB_ACCESS_TOKEN=my-secret-fb-token
FB_TOKEN = os.environ['FB_ACCESS_TOKEN']

@app.route('/', method="POST")
def chatbot_response():
    data = request.json()  # flasks's request object
    sender_id = data["entry"][0]["messaging"][0]["sender"]["id"]
    send_back_to_fb = {
        "recipient": {
            "id": sender_id,
        },
        "message": "this is a test response message"
    }

    # the big change: use another library to send an HTTP request back to FB
    fb_response = requests.post(FB_MESSAGES_ENDPOINT,
                                params={"access_token": FB_TOKEN},
                                data=json.dumps(send_back_to_fb))

    # handle the response to the subrequest you made
    if not fb_response.ok:
        # log some useful info for yourself, for debugging
        print 'jeepers. %s: %s' % (fb_response.status_code, fb_response.text)

    # always return 200 to Facebook's original POST request so they know you
    # handled their request
    return "OK", 200

A: When doing responses in Flask, you have to be careful.  Simply doing a return statement won't return anything to the requester.
In your case, you might want to look at jsonify().  It will take a Python dictionary and return it to your browser as a JSON object.
from flask import jsonify
return jsonify({"url": url, "qs": qs_value, "method": "POST", "json": json_response})

If you want more control over the responses, like setting codes, take a look at make_response()
