The Alberta government has pulled funding for a new multimillion-dollar police and peace officer college in Fort Macleod. 2:36
Solicitor general Jonathan Denis made the announcement Wednesday, saying there is "substantial evidence" that a stand-alone facility wouldn't be financially viable.
"This was a very difficult decision," Denis said. "But it's one I believe that is in the best interest of the taxpayers and law enforcement in this province."
Calgary's and Edmonton's police chiefs and the commissioner of the RCMP do not believe the college is required and would not improve the quality of policing, Denis said.

The Police and Peace Officer Training Centre was first promised in 2006 and construction was supposed to begin in 2007, but the project never went any further than a ceremonial sod turning.
Fort Macleod Mayor Shawn Patience says the decision has ruined his faith in the political system.
"This is a $122 million project in a town of 3,000 people," said Patience.
"It's just absolutely baffling to me that you could get into the stage where you actually have equipment on site and have a town like ours that has committed already $3.5 million on signed contracts with the government's approval, that this would now not go ahead."
Patience said he has called his council together for an emergency meeting.
"I have asked the solicitor general to speak to the premier and cabinet and reverse the decision. I was told that would not happen. So, at this point they have literally, I guess for all intents and purposes, they've hung us out to dry."
'Future of policing'
In 2006, Patience said the community was very excited about the new centre being built in their town.
"This is really where policing began in Western Canada, and it's very exciting now that Fort Macleod is now part of the future of policing, not only in the province of Alberta but in the country as well," he said.
The cost of the facility had grown to $120.7 million from the 2006 estimate of $50 to $100 million. It was expected to train as many as 400 police recruits and 1,000 peace officers each year.
Cancelling the facility may still end up costing the province money as the construction contract had already been awarded.
"My belief is the contract was not signed," said Denis. "Any cancellation penalties that there would be, if any, would be far outweighed by the actual amount of going ahead with this project that is not necessary."
The province says despite the cancellation of the college, standardized training for law enforcement agencies across Alberta will continue to be implemented.
Opposition says it's a political game
NDP justice critic said the Conservative government is abandoning rural southern Alberta.
The riding the college would have been in went to the Wildrose in the last election and Rachel Notley said that probably contributed to the decision.
"The single biggest deciding factor was the party that the local MLA belongs and just recently of course that party is no longer the [Progressive] Conservative Party," said Notley.
The solicitor general said the decision would be the same even if the centre was in his own constituency.
Wildrose justice critic Shayne Saskiw sided with Notley, and said the decision was part of a political game.
"What we just see here is classic PC incompetence and mismanagement and that the government should be making decisions on funding from the start."

North America's water infrastructure is in decline. The signs of distress surface daily as water mains break creating floods and service disruptions. The loss of service is more than an inconvenience, causing significant social and economic disruptions. Economic impacts include loss of treated water, increased maintenance budgets, overtime hours for service personnel, traffic and business disruptions, and damage to private property.
Overall, break rates have increased 27% in the past six years. Utilities should be concerned that break rates for cast iron (CI) and asbestos cement (AC) pipes, which together represent almost half of the installed water mains in North America, have increased 46% and 43%, respectively, since 2012. Together, CI and AC pipes are mostly responsible for the spike in pipe failures. CI and AC pipes are no longer manufactured and are now reaching the end of their expected lives.

FRASER, the chief river of British Columbia, Canada, rising in two branches among the Rocky Mountains near 52° 45′ N., 118° 30′ W. Length 740 m. It first flows N.W. for about 160 m., then rounds the head of the Cariboo Mountains, and flows directly S. for over 400 m. to Hope, where it again turns abruptly and flows W. for 80 m., falling into the Gulf of Georgia at New Westminster. After the junction of the two forks near its northern extremity, the first important tributary on its southern course is the Stuart, draining Lakes Stuart, Fraser and François. One hundred miles lower down the Quesnel, draining a large lake of the same name, flows in from the east at a town also so named. Farther on the Fraser receives from the west the Chilcotin, and at Lytton, about 180 m. from the sea, the Thompson, its largest tributary, flows in from the east, draining a series of mountain lakes, and receiving at Kamloops the North Thompson, which flows through deep and impassable canyons. Below Hope the Lillooet flows in from the north. The Fraser is a typical mountain stream, rapid and impetuous through all its length, and like most of its tributaries is in many parts not navigable even by canoes. On its southern course between Lytton and Yale, while bursting its way through the Coast Range, it flows through majestic canyons, which, like those of the Thompson, were the scene of many tragedies during the days of the gold-rush to the Cariboo district. At Yale, about 80 m. from its mouth, it becomes navigable, though its course is still very rapid. In the Cariboo district, comprised within the great bend of the river, near Tête Jaune Cache, are many valuable gold deposits. With its tributaries the Fraser drains the whole province from 54° to 49° N., except the extreme south-eastern corner, which is within the basin of the Columbia and its tributary the Kootenay.

What is the ISO 27000 series?
The series is deliberately broad in scope, covering more than just privacy, confidentiality and IT or technical security issues. It is applicable to organizations of all shapes and sizes. All organizations are encouraged to assess their information security risks, and then implement appropriate information security controls according to their needs, using the guidance and suggestions where relevant. Given the dynamic nature of information security, the ISMS concept incorporates continuous feedback and improvement activities, summarized by Deming's "plan-do-check-act" approach, that seek to address changes in the threats, vulnerabilities or impacts of information security incidents.
The standards are the product of ISO/IEC JTC1 (Joint Technical Committee 1) SC27 (Sub Committee 27), an international body that meets in person twice a year.
At present, six of the standards in the series are publicly available while several more are under development.
Why adopt the ISO 27000 series?
ISO/IEC 27002, which is a "Code of practice" that can be used to build a comprehensive and robust information security program, however ISO 27001:2005 is a certifiable standard, intended to provide the foundation for third-party audit, and is "harmonized" with other management standards such as ISO 9001 (quality management) and ISO 14001 (environmental management). In other words, an Information Security Management System (ISMS) developed for ISO 27001 certification can be integrated with existing management systems, within the organization.
Unlike other existing security-related certifications such as SAS 70 and WebTrust, ISO 27001:2005 certification is much more comprehensive, and specifically focused on Information security management.
ISO 27001 certification enables organizations to clearly demonstrate that their IS programs are not only effective, but also regularly reviewed and updated based on the plan-do-check-act (PDCA) process model, covering performance, effectiveness monitoring and review, and continual improvement.
Certification programs such as SAS 70 and WebTrust cannot provide all the benefits listed above, due to their limited scope.

The Revised Standard Version (RSV) is an English translation of the Bible published in 1952 by the Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA.[1] This translation itself is a revision of the American Standard Version (ASV) of 1901,[2] and was intended to be a readable and literally accurate modern English translation which aimed to "preserve all that is best in the English Bible as it has been known and used through the centuries" and "to put the message of the Bible in simple, enduring words that are worthy to stand in the great Tyndale-King James tradition."[3][4]
The RSV was the first translation of the Bible to make use of the Dead Sea Scroll of Isaiah, a development considered "revolutionary" in the academic field of biblical scholarship.[2] The New Testament was first published in 1946, the Old Testament in 1952, and the Apocrypha in 1957; the New Testament was revised in 1971. The original Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition (RSV-CE) was published in 1965–66, and the deuterocanonical books were expanded in 1977. The Revised Standard Version, Second Catholic Edition (RSV-2CE) was released in 2006.
In later years, the RSV served as the basis for two revisions—the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV) of 1989, and the English Standard Version (ESV) of 2001.
Publication and promotion[edit]
The immediate predecessor to the RSV was the American Standard Version, published in 1901 by Thomas Nelson & Sons, and copyrighted to protect the ASV text from unauthorized changes. In 1928, the International Council of Religious Education (ICRE) acquired the copyright to the ASV from Nelson and renewed it the following year.
From 1930 to 1932, a study of the ASV text was undertaken to decide the question of a new revision, but due to the Great Depression, it was not until 1937 that the ICRE voted in favor of revising the ASV text. A panel of 32 scholars was assembled for that task. Also, the Council hoped to set up a corresponding translation committee in Great Britain, as had been the case with the RV and ASV, but this plan was canceled because of World War II.
Funding for the revision was assured in 1936 by a deal made with the publisher Thomas Nelson & Sons that gave Nelson the exclusive rights to print the new version for ten years. The Committee determined that, since the work would be a revision of the "Standard Bible" (as the ASV was sometimes called because of its standard use in seminaries in those days), the name of the work would be the "Revised Standard Version".
The translation panel used the 17th edition of the Nestle-Aland Greek text for the New Testament and the traditional Hebrew Masoretic Text for the Old Testament. In the Book of Isaiah, they sometimes followed readings found in the newly discovered Dead Sea Scrolls.
The RSV New Testament was published on February 11, 1946, with a ceremony commemorating its publication held in Columbus, Ohio.[5] In his presentation speech to the ICRE, Luther Weigle, dean of the translation committee, explained that he wanted the RSV to supplement and not supplant the KJV and ASV.
In 1950, the ICRE merged with the Federal Council of Churches to form the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA. The former ICRE became the new Council's Division of Christian Education, and the NCC became the RSV's official sponsor. After a thorough examination and approximately 80 changes to the New Testament text, the NCC authorized the RSV Bible for publication in 1951. St. Jerome's Day, September 30, 1952, was selected as the day of publication.
The NCC launched a massive marketing campaign aimed at promoting the new version, proclaiming it to be "The Greatest Bible News in 341 Years" and hailing "The Word of Life in Living Language". The week of September 28-October 5, 1952 was declared to be "Revised Standard Version Bible Observance Week", with festivities planned for the occasion.
A number of specially bound presentation copies were given to local public officials in the days prior to the general release. One such presentation copy, the very first copy of the RSV Bible to come off the press, was presented by Weigle to an appreciative President Harry S. Truman on September 26, four days before it was released to the general public.[6]
On September 30, the RSV Bible was released to the general public. The NCC sponsored a celebratory rally in Washington D.C., with representatives of the churches affiliated with it present. A total of 3,418 interdenominational religious gatherings across North America were held that evening to honor the new version and the translators who made it possible.[7]
In its original publication by Nelson, the Revised Standard Version appeared in three editions: A maroon buckram hardcover edition, a black genuine leather edition, and a three-volume set bound in blue hardcover.

There are four key differences between the RSV and its three direct predecessors (the KJV, RV and ASV):
The translators reverted to the KJV and RV's practice of translating the Tetragrammaton, or the Divine Name, YHWH. In accordance with the 1611 and 1885 versions, the RSV translated it as "LORD" or "GOD" (depending on whether the Hebrew of the particular verse was read "Adonai" or "Elohim" in Jewish practice), whereas the ASV had translated it "Jehovah".
A change was made in the usage of second-person pronouns. The KJV, RV and ASV use the pronouns thou, thee, thy and thine to translate all instances of the second-person singular in the original languages, alongside their associated verb forms (such as art, hast, hadst and didst). The pronoun you and its related forms are used in these translations only to translate the plural. In contrast, the RSV uses only the you forms regardless of number, retaining the older singular thou forms only in address to God (a fairly common practice for Bible translations until the 1970s).
The RSV is the first direct revision of the KJV to significantly modernize the language used; for example, the verb ending -eth is replaced by the more contemporary -s to indicate the third-person singular present, some archaic past tense forms such as spake and sware are updated to their modern counterparts (spoke and swore), and the original case distinction between ye and you is removed (the latter being favoured in both nominative and objective cases).
For the New Testament, the RSV followed the latest available version of Nestle's Greek text, whereas the RV and ASV had used the Westcott and Hort Greek text, and the KJV had used the Textus receptus.
Reception and controversy[edit]
Isaiah 7:14 dispute and impact[edit]
Main article: Isaiah 7:14
The RSV New Testament was well received, but reactions to the Old Testament were varied and not without controversy.[8] Critics claimed that the RSV translators had translated the Old Testament from a non-Christian perspective. Some critics specifically referred to a Jewish viewpoint, pointing to agreements with the 1917 Jewish Publication Society of America Version Tanakh and the presence on the editorial board of a Jewish scholar, Harry Orlinsky. Such critics further claimed that other views, including those regarding the New Testament, were not considered. The focus of the controversy was the RSV's translation of the Hebrew word עַלְמָה (ʿalmāh) in Isaiah 7:14 as "young woman."
Almah in Hebrew translates as a young woman of childbearing age who had not had children, and so may or may not be a virgin.[9] The Greek language Septuagint written one hundred to three hundred years before Jesus rendered almah as parthenos (παρθένος), which translates as "virgin", and this is the understanding carried over by Christians.
Of the seven appearances of ʿalmāh, the Septuagint translates only two of them as parthenos, "virgin" (including Isaiah 7:14). By contrast, the word בְּתוּלָה (bəṯūlāh) appears some 50 times, and the Septuagint and English translations agree in understanding the word to mean "virgin" in almost every case.
The controversy stemming from this rendering helped reignite the King-James-Only Movement within the Independent Baptist and Pentecostal churches. Furthermore, many Christians have adopted what has come to be known as the "Isaiah 7:14 litmus test", which entails checking that verse to determine whether or not a new translation can be trusted.[10]
Protest[edit]
Some opponents of the RSV took their antagonism beyond condemnation. Luther Hux, a pastor in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, announced his intention to burn a copy of the RSV during a sermon on November 30, 1952. This was reported in the press and attracted shocked reactions, as well as a warning from the local fire chief. On the day in question, he delivered a two-hour sermon entitled "The National Council Bible, the Master Stroke of Satan—One of the Devil's Greatest Hoaxes". After ending the sermon, he led the congregation out of the church, gave each worshipper a small American flag and proceeded to set light to the pages containing Isaiah 7:14. Hux informed the gathered press that he did not burn the Bible, but simply the "fraud" that the Isaiah pages represented. Hux later wrote a tract against the RSV entitled Modernism's Unholy Bible.[11] Another pastor in the Southern United States burned a copy of the RSV with a blowlamp in his pulpit, saying that it was like the devil because it was hard to burn and sent the ashes as a protest to Weigle.
The RSV translators linked these events to the life of William Tyndale, an inspiration to them, explaining in their preface: "He met bitter opposition. He was accused of willfully perverting the meaning of the Scriptures, and his New Testaments were ordered to be burned as 'untrue translations.'" But where Tyndale was strangled and then burned at the stake for his work, Bruce Metzger, referring to the pastor who burned the RSV and sent the ashes to Weigle, commented in his book The Bible In Translation: "...today it is happily only a copy of the translation that meets such a fate." instead of Bible translators.[12]
Post-1952 developments[edit]
Apocrypha[edit]
In 1957, at the request of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America, the deuterocanonical books (included in the Apocrypha by most Protestant Christians) were added to the RSV. Since there was no American Standard Version of the Apocrypha, the RSV Apocrypha was a revision of the Revised Version Apocrypha of 1894 as well as the King James Version. To make the RSV acceptable to individuals and parishes within the Eastern Orthodox Church, an expanded edition of the deuterocanonical texts containing 3 and 4 Maccabees and Psalm 151 was released in 1977; in these 1977 additions, as in the New Revised Standard Version, archaic pronouns (such as "thou" and "thee") and verb forms (such as "hast" and "didst") are no longer used for God.
Most editions of the RSV that contain the Apocrypha place those books after the New Testament, arranged in the order of the King James Version (the Eastern Orthodox deuterocanon in post-1977 editions is added at the end). The exceptions are the First and Second Catholic Editions and the Common Bible in which the Apocryphal books were placed in the order of the Roman Catholic Biblical canon and between the Testaments and rearranged in an order pleasing to Catholics, Orthodox, and Protestants alike, respectively (see below for more information about the Catholic Editions and the Common Bible).
Alterations in 1962 printings[edit]
Approximately 85 alterations to the RSV text were authorized in 1959 and introduced into the 1962 printings. At the same time, as Thomas Nelson & Sons was not keeping up with the public demand for the RSV Bible, the NCC authorized other publishing companies besides Nelson to print it, including the American Bible Society, Cokesbury, Holman, Melton, Oxford University Press, World, Collins, and Zondervan. Some of the changes included (but were not limited to) reverting to the Greek phrase "the husband of one wife" in 1 Timothy 3.2, 12 and Titus 1.6 (in the 1946-52 printing it was paraphrased as "married only once"), quoting the Roman centurion who witnessed Jesus' death and called him "the Son of God" in Matthew 27.54 and Mark 15.39 (in 1946-52 he was quoted as calling Jesus "a son of God"), and changing "without" in Job 19.26 to "from" (and adjusting the associated footnote accordingly).
Catholic Edition[edit]
Main article: Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
In 1965–66, the Catholic Biblical Association adapted, under the editorship of John Archibald Henslowe Orchard O.S.B. and Reginald C. Fuller, the RSV for Catholic use with the release of the Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSV-CE). A revised New Testament was published in 1965, followed by a full RSV Catholic Edition Bible in 1966. The RSV Catholic Edition included revisions up through 1962, a small number of new revisions to the New Testament, mostly to return to familiar phrases, and changes to a few footnotes. It contains the deuterocanonical books of the Old Testament placed in the traditional order of the Vulgate.
Second Edition of the New Testament[edit]
On March 15, 1971, the RSV Bible was re-released with the Second Edition of the Translation of the New Testament. Whereas in 1962 the translation panel had merely authorized a handful of changes, in 1971 they gave the New Testament text a thorough editing. This Second Edition incorporated Greek manuscripts not previously available to the RSV translation panel, namely, the Bodmer Papyri, published in 1956–61.
The most obvious changes were the restoration of Mark 16.9-20 (the long ending) and John 7.53-8.11 aka The Pericope Adulterae (in which Jesus forgives an adultress) to the text (in 1946, they were put in footnotes). Also restored was Luke 22.19b-20, containing the bulk of Jesus' institution of the Lord's Supper. In the 1946-52 text, this had been cut off at the phrase, "This is my body", and the rest had only been footnoted, since this verse did not appear in the original Codex Bezae manuscript used by the translation committee.
The description of Christ's ascension in Luke 24:51 had the footnote "...and was carried up into heaven" restored to the text. Luke 22.43-44, which had been part of the text in 1946–52, was relegated to the footnote section because of its questionable authenticity; in these verses an angel appears to Jesus in Gethsemane to strengthen and encourage Him before His arrest and crucifixion. Many other verses were rephrased or rewritten for greater clarity and accuracy. Moreover, the footnotes concerning monetary values were no longer expressed in terms of dollars and cents but in terms of how long it took to earn each coin (e. g., the denarius was no longer defined as twenty cents but as a day's wage). The Book of Revelation, called "The Revelation to John" in the previous editions, was retitled "The Revelation to John (The Apocalypse)".
Some of these changes to the RSV New Testament had already been introduced in the 1965-66 RSV Catholic Edition, and their introduction into the RSV itself was done to pave the way for the publication of the Common Bible in 1973.
The Standard Bible Committee intended to prepare a second edition of the Old Testament,[13] but those plans were scrapped in 1974, when the National Council of Churches voted to authorize a full revision of the RSV.
Common Bible[edit]
The Common Bible of 1973 ordered the books in a way that pleased both Catholics and Protestants. It was divided into four sections:
The Old Testament (39 Books)
The Catholic Deuterocanonical Books (12 Books)
The additional Eastern Orthodox Deuterocanonical Books (three Books; six Books after 1977)
The New Testament (27 Books)
The non-deuterocanonicals gave the Common Bible a total of 81 books: it included 1 Esdras (also known as 3 Ezra), 2 Esdras (4 Ezra), and the Prayer of Manasseh, books that have appeared in the Vulgate's appendix since Jerome's time "lest they perish entirely", but are not considered canonical by Catholics and are thus not included in most modern Catholic Bibles.
In 1977, the RSV Apocrypha was expanded to include 3 Maccabees, 4 Maccabees, and Psalm 151, three additional sections accepted in the Eastern Orthodox canon (4 Maccabees again forming an appendix in that tradition), although it still does not include additional books in the Syriac and Ethiopian canons. This action increased the Common Bible to 84 Books, making it the most comprehensive English Bible translation to date with its inclusion of books not accepted by all denominations. The goal of the Common Bible was to help ecumenical relations among the churches.
Reader's Digest Bible[edit]
In 1982, Reader's Digest published a special edition of the RSV that was billed as a condensed edition of the text. A team of seven editors led by John Evangelist Walsh produced the manuscript. The Reader's Digest edition was intended for those who did not read the Bible or who read it infrequently; it was not intended as a replacement of the full RSV text. In this version, 55% of the Old Testament and 25% of the New Testament were cut. Familiar passages such as the Lord's Prayer, Psalm 23, and the Ten Commandments were retained. For those who wanted the full RSV, Reader's Digest provided a list of publishers that sold the complete RSV at that time.
Second Catholic Edition[edit]
In early 2006, Ignatius Press released the Revised Standard Version, Second Catholic Edition (RSV-2CE). This second edition removed archaic pronouns (thee, thou), and accompanying verb forms (didst, speakest), revised passages used in the lectionary according to the Vatican document Liturgiam authenticam, and elevated some passages out of the RSV footnotes when they favored Catholic renderings, such as replacing "young woman" with "virgin" in Isaiah 7:14.
Revisions[edit]
New Revised Standard Version[edit]
Main article: New Revised Standard Version
In 1989, the National Council of Churches released a full-scale revision to the RSV called the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV). It was the first major version to use gender-neutral language and thus drew more criticism and ire from conservative Christians than did its 1952 predecessor. This criticism largely stemmed from concerns that the modified language obscured phrases in the Old Testament that could be read as messianic prophecies.
English Standard Version[edit]
Main article: English Standard Version
As an alternative to the NRSV, in 2001, publisher Crossway Bibles released its own Protestant evangelical revision of the RSV called the English Standard Version (ESV). This version was commissioned for the purpose of modifying RSV passages that conservatives had long disputed: e.g., the RSV's Isaiah 7:14 usage of the phrase "young woman" was changed to "virgin". Unlike its counterpart, it used only a small amount of gender-neutral language.
Legacy and use today[edit]
When the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV) was released in 1989, some traditional Christians — both Catholic and Protestant — criticized its wide use of gender-inclusive language.[14] Because of its significance in the development of the English Bible tradition, many publishers and Biblical scholars continue to rely on the RSV tradition in their work, especially when writing for mixed Catholic and Protestant audiences:
[T]he Revised Standard Version of 1946–1957 was becoming established and, in 1966, was accepted by Catholics and Protestants as a 'Common Bible'. It was the first truly ecumenical Bible and brought together the two traditions — the Catholic Douay–Rheims Bible and the Protestant Authorised Version.[15]
The year 2002 marked the 50th anniversary of the RSV Bible's first publication. Oxford University Press commemorated it by releasing two different Anniversary editions: one with the Old and New Testaments only (with the NT text from 1971), and another including the Apocryphal books as seen in the 1977 Expanded Edition. In an effort to further ecumenical relations, the more extensive 50th Anniversary Edition also included some of the preferred Catholic readings in the text and footnotes of the New Testament section.
Moreover, because of its importance to Anglican heritage and the English Bible tradition, the Revised Standard Version, Second Catholic Edition (RSV-2CE) has been approved for liturgical use in Anglican Use Catholic parishes of the U.S. Pastoral Provision and Personal Ordinariates for former Anglicans around the world. The Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham in the United Kingdom has adopted the RSV-2CE as "the sole lectionary authorized for use" in its liturgies.Liturgy - Anglican Use - Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham The RSV is one of the versions authorized to be used in services of the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion.[16]
On January 20, 2017, incoming U.S. President Donald Trump took his inaugural oath of office using a copy of the RSV Bible given to him by his mother in 1955 when he graduated from a Presbyterian Sunday School.[17]

1. What is there to do after you reach the highest level?
I personally play MMORPG's because I do like to grind and leveling up. Typically when I reach the highest level, I usually end up playing less and less and eventually quit. If you do play because you enjoy leveling up, you would find out that there's nothing more to do after that last level. Although some games offer "rebirth", "ascend", "reborn", and etc. However, most of the time you would just realize that you are playing the game all over again.
2. What is there to do when you clear the game's final dungeon?
When you finish the game's final content, you typically just continue doing the same thing over and over until you get that top gears. The initial thrill of actually beating it is no more. When you do one thing enough numbers of times, they now feel like a chore. Sure you worked hard to be able to beat it. You would feel thrilled and excited when you do beat it. Although that "first time" is the one best time it could be ever.
3. What is there to do after you get the top gears?
Progressing in content, getting new gears, making more money is always exciting and fulfilling in online games. Yet, what if you don't have anymore "materialistic" needs in your game, what if all your gears are good enough for you to clear any dungeons? There is nothing much to do. Other than that you have some godly gears which was gained by blowing hundreds of dollars at Cash Shops. Think twice before doing everything that you can to obtain those top gears. Maybe you would realize that the end result is not really worth the effort.
The worst feeling that you can have in any online world is to feel that there's nothing else to do in-game. You would log on, kill a couple monsters or even players, walk around shopping area at some shops, talk to your guild to say hi, then log off. Soon enough you would not even bother to log on anymore and you switch to a new game. It is very common to observe people acting like this. This may very well happen to you. So why bother to rush to reach the final stage of an online game?
You could either be nice to help other people achieve that last levels, or you could be evil and PvP kill anyone who is trying. That is all about what's left in game after you have cleared all the content and leveled up your character to the maximum.
My point of this article is…you should slow down and smell the flowers to enjoy the process of the game. You should not be blinded of getting to the top as fast as you can. Sure you can get to the top really fast if you blow off all your real life things, or spend enough cash to fully power up your characters. But at the end, you would only feel empty and lost when there is nothing more to look forward to.
Although there's not much "game play" that you could expect other than the next update. I do want to mention that there is always a social aspect of things that you can continue to do….such as constantly PvP, creating a guild, or write guides and share your experiences to earn some extra money. Yet in terms of game play, there is really no need to rush to the final content.

Don't Make PRIZEFIGHTER's Debut Single "An Afterthought" [Premiere]
By Aaron Willschick 12/16/2021
It's the big reveal party for Zach Zyla and you're all invited. Under the name PRIZEFIGHTER, the singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and audio engineer is pleased to be unveiling his debut single today, "An Afterthought." The song is anything but an afterthought, a strong first statement of his musical prowess, with more to come on his forthcoming debut album Somewhere Between Here & There, due out in the new year.
Armed with experience, knowledge, and nerve, Zyla brings a creative approach to the table, combining vocal talent with a strong technical acumen that comes from his background as an audio engineer. Rather than hire musicians, producers, and engineers to assist, Zyla would rather just all do it himself, his own way, wearing as many hats as are required to get the job done.
Explaining the place in which he's coming from as a songwriter and as a musician, Zyla tells us:
"I just want to make music that a 14 year old version of myself would love. Music that you can find pieces of yourself in and relate to, but also be anthemic and a blast to sing along to. An Afterthought was a cathartic release to write, so I hope that it can be just as cathartic for anyone listening and yelling along to."
With life slowed down due to the pandemic, Zyla spent most of his 2021 honing in on just what direction he wanted to go in with PRIZEFIGHTER. He considered the band approach before soon deciding that it would be best to go it alone, writing, recording, producing, mixing, and mastering everything, along with planning the release and doing the marketing. The project was initially only intended as a creative means for Zyla to work off some stress and aggression in a fun way, but when others heard what he was coming up with, they encouraged him to stick with it.
Zyla has several years of experience now as a producer, helping others in the New England area with recording their own songs. He started out playing in bands, but he soon fell in love with not only writing music but also the engineering and production aspects of the process. By 2016, he had opened Zach Zyla Audio, which he continues to operate, helping other artists hone in on their sound. As we enter into a new year, now is the time for Zyla to establish himself as an artist in his own right, one that really has no limitations when it comes to songwriting and recording.

Week 35: August 28, 2016 -- September 3, 2016
For those interested in shale oil, this might be a most interesting read -- from Platts: shale and demand uncertainty have put Big Oil on the defensive. Not mentioned in this article is Shell's recent announcement that it would begin to focus on shale oil and horizontal fracking. Shell recently said it actually drilled two long laterals. Wow.
It is interesting to note that first link, Pioneer Natural Resources says the breakeven point in the Permian is $25/bbl. Likewise, Statoil says its North Sea Field is also profitable at $25. Saudi Arabia can't survive on $25-oil.
Along that same line, the graph that terrorizes Saudi Arabia: Permian oil will have significant effect on total US crude oil production.
Perhaps the biggest story of the week: the EIA reports that US gasoline consumption reached an all-time high for any month -- occurred in June, 2016.
Without question, the most popular posting this week: Vern Whitten's photographs of the Bakken. The "original" Vern Whitten post this past week is here.
NDIC September hearing dockets released; significant increased number of wells in drilling units
Richard Zeits is optimistic on the Bakken
Dakota Access Pipeline likely to be keystoned, update
Enbridge puts the Sandpiper Pipeline project on hold
Fascinating Read: "Shale And Demand Uncertainty Put Big Oil On Defensive"; Shale's Breakeven Price Is $25/Bbl -- September 2, 2016
For me, the biggest takeaway from this article: Saudi Arabia has much to fear.
First half of the article; much more at the link:
Under pressure from low oil prices and their rising debt levels, top oil executives at the ONS 2016 conference this week might well have found the blunt message of shale driller Scott Douglas Sheffield unsettling.
The chief executive of Pioneer Natural Resources seemed to enjoy the role of spoiler-in-chief, harrying Big Oil with some uncomfortable assertions.
The bad news, for those in the industry who missed out on shale and expected it to fade in the face of low prices, is that the Permian basin should be able to increase its output from 2 million b/d to 5 million b/d in the next 10 years, assuming prices reach $56/b in 2025, Sheffield said. Pioneer itself is growing its output by 27-30% annually.
"It's in that [price] strip that I see the Permian adding 300,000 b/d per year in US supply," he told the Offshore Norwegian Seas conference, held Aug. 29 through Sept. 1 in Stavanger. Ramming home his contrarian stance, he said he was skeptical of some of the higher forecasts of long-term oil demand growth due to global warming, alternative energy and electric vehicles, while boasting of the company's use of renewables in its own operations and the solar panels on his home.
In Sheffield's view, the dip in US production has been misconstrued, with some in the industry underestimating the Permian basin as output falters in the Eagle Ford and the Bakken.
Some have failed to appreciate that rig reductions in the Permian have happened partly because of reduced drilling at conventional, non-shale sites, rather than in the shale plays, he said.
The Spraberry-Wolfcamp shale, where Pioneer operates, remains resilient and Pioneer's own breakeven price is below $25/b.
Prices paid for shale acreage have been rising, in some cases, to levels higher than in 2013-2014, he said.
"In the Permian we still have about 600,000 b/d of conventional production that's declining — it's arresting the growth. [However] there's one field in the Midland basin, six fields in the Delaware basin that make up most of the growth in production. The Permian is still growing," he said. With the Permian accounting for over half of US oil rigs, he forecast another 50-75 would be added.
But while the world's oil majors were largely caught off guard by shale and have of late struggled to maintain a foothold in many parts of the world, Shell chief executive Ben van Beurden insisted on their relevance, reiterating the International Energy Agency's central scenario for a 25% increase in energy demand by 2035 and predictions of oil demand growth of 1-1.5 million b/d for the next five years.
That, together with decline from existing fields of 5% per year, means the notion of stranded assets, by which oil and gas becomes redundant, is a "red herring," he said. The industry is now filling the gap between demand growth and natural decline "quite comfortably, with all the investment decisions that we took four-five years ago. [But] that time will dry up," he said. "We will see the tightness come back into the market. I'm more worried about supply shrinkage."
And then the second half at the link.

NDIC's Daily Activity Reports For September, 2016, Are Not Available -- September 2, 2016
The NDIC site went down Thursday, September 1, 2016, about noon. It appears much of the site came back up Friday morning, September 2, 2016, with at least one major exception: the Daily Activity Report Index for the month of September, 2016.
The list of wells on the confidential list is up and running and one well will come off the confidential list on Saturday. That will be reported Monday.
I posted this story some weeks ago. It's now being reported by The Los Angeles Times: Cornell University welcomes 12-year-old college freshman -- the school's youngest student ever.
When he was 2, Jeremy Shuler was reading books in English and Korean. At 6, he was studying calculus. Now, at an age when most kids are attending middle school, the exuberant 12-year-old is a freshman at Cornell University, the youngest the Ivy League school has on record.
"It's risky to extrapolate, but if you look at his trajectory and he stays on course, one day he'll solve some problem we haven't even conceived of," said Cornell Engineering Dean Lance Collins. "That's pretty exciting."
Jeremy is the home-schooled child of two aerospace engineers who were living in Grand Prairie, Texas, when he applied to Cornell.
While Jeremy's elite-level SAT and Advanced Placement test scores in math and science at age 10 showed he was intellectually ready for college, Collins said what sealed the deal was his parents' willingness to move to Ithaca. Jeremy's father, Andy Shuler, transferred from Lockheed Martin in Texas to its location in upstate New York.
Grand Prairie sits about 30 minutes southeast of us, smack dab between Ft Worth and Dallas.
Hell Creek Fossil Beds
General Editor: Stever Parker
At the end of the Cretaceous Period, which also marked the end of the Mesozoic Era, the era of dinosaurs, this is the description of eastern Montana and the western Dakotas.
The western Dakotas and eastern Montana would have been a huge coastal floodplain.
To the east was a huge, huge inland waterway, the Western Interior Seaway.
To the west: flat plains that extended as far as the dinosaurs could see, and if they could see that far, to the growing Rocky Mountains.
The floodplains, topographically, might have looked a lot like Florida swamps, Louisiana deltas, Minnesota's 10,000 lakes, Dakota marshlands, and the farther west one got, the Montana prairies. The climate might have been a lot like Hawaii's climate:
dry bushland with clusters of small trees
The plants would have been quite diverse, depending where you were:
evergreens, including cycads, ginkgoes, and conifers
flowering plants and trees, such as palms, magnolias, sycamores, laurels and beeches
In fact, except for the animals it might have looked a lot like central Montana does now, with a bit more tropical flair.
The animals:
T rex and Triceratops would have been the big game animals, had Hemingway been around
he would have been bothered by insects but could have enjoyed clams with his mojio
he would have had plenty of big game fish to bring in: sharks, paddlefish, bowfins, and sturgeons
he would have seen frogs and salamanders in the marshes, as well as turtles, snakes, and lizards
most interesting, perhaps, aside from T rex and Triceratops would have been the giant flying azhdarchid pterosaurs (reptiles, but not dinosaurs); on the ground these azhdarchids would have looked like giraffes, or even better, crude oil jack pumps, especially at night, in silhouette (there is some irony there)
My hunch is that big game hunters would not have survived Cretaceous Dakota, except possibly in boats in the rivers and marshes.
The mammals were small and would have been a nocturnal nuisance for anyone daring to sleep in a tent (again, T rex would have had a feast). The mammals would have been small rat-like creatures, probably not the cuddly looking rabbits many eventually became. Hemingway might have seen his distant ancestor, Purgatorius, the earliest example of a primate or proto-primate. It would have looked nothing like any of Hemingway's four wives, although the word "shrew" does come to mind.
Interestingly, Parker's Evolution does not discuss grasses, and the word "grass" is not in the index. So, from another site.
The Cretaceous Dakota flora would have been dominated by mosses, ferns, and conifers, although flowering plants were on the rise. I have difficulty imagining "plains" without grasses. I've been to Hawaii, but I don't recall to what extent grasses cover the islands. Looking at this site of Hawaiian fauna reveals flowering plants with only one grass; maybe this is the type of flowering plants Triceratops would have seen across the fruited plains. But without grasses, Cretaceous Montana approaching the Rocky Mountains would have looked much different than it does now.
By 95 million years ago, angiosperms (flowering plants) were out-competing the conifers and other gymnosperms in many areas and were well on their way to becoming the dominant form of plant life.
From the linked site:
At the [time grasses began to evolve] there was a notable change in the structure of the fruit.
All the ancestors of the grasses had ovaries formed of three fused carpels, each carpel forming one locule with one ovule. In many of the close relatives, and we presume in the grass ancestors, two of those ovules abort and only one develops. In the grasses, only one locule and one ovule ever form. As the ovule develops the outer integument fuses with the inner ovary wall to form the distinctive fruit of the grasses, known as the grain or caryopsis. This structure is unique among the flowering plants.
The dinosaurs never saw grass. Non-avian dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago and the earliest fossil record of grasses is between 60 and 55 million ago. Triceratops just missed grass by 5 to 10 million years.
Streamers: Ivanpah Solar Farm Fries 6,000 Birds Yearly -- LA Times -- September 2, 2016
Later, 2:53 p.m. Central Time: when you read the following article and note Ivanpah is killing 6,000 birds yearly, remember the fines levied for singular ducks allegedly killed in the Bakken when the boom was just beginning. This is from The Twin Cities Pioneer Press, November 3, 2011. The article begins:
A Texas oil company will plead guilty and pay a $1,000 fine for killing a duck during drilling operations in western North Dakota, according to an agreement filed today.
Dallas-based Petro-Hunt LLC was charged under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act for the death of a northern shoveler found May 6 in one of the company's waste pits. Under the third such plea agreement filed in federal court, Petro-Hunt will pay the fine to the nonprofit National Fish and Wildlife Foundation.
Other data points from the same article:
7 oil companies charged
28 dead birds found in uncovered waste pits in May/June, 2011
misdemeanors; max penalty: for each count -- 6 months in prison, $15,000 fine
Slawson: plead guilty in October, 2011: killed 12 birds, $12,000 fine
MDU/Fidelity: $1,500 fine for a solitary sandpiper found in one of the company's waste pits
President Obama gave blanket waiver to wind farms allowing 30 bald eagle kills/year for the next 30 years (that's not quite right, but when I find time, I will correct it).
But at least we know the going price for Daffy Duck in the North Dakota oil patch is about $1,000.
CFC: California Fried Condors?
Ivanpah: another name for "bird sink."
Anyway, whatever, from The Los Angeles Times, the data points:
streamers: the wisps of white smoke as crispy, fried birds fall to earth over Ivanpah Solar Plant
along I-15 west of Las Vegas
390-MW plant owners tring to think of ways to stop the slaughter -- yes, that's the word used by The LA Times
6,000 birds fried or collide each each year

As one reads the story, it only gets worse.
"Ivanpah continues to operate as though there is an endless supply of birds to burn." -- Garry George, Audubon California.
And it's either worse than they say, or better than they say. But they have to study Ivanpah for another nine months. I guess if it's only 4,000 birds yearly, that would be better.
I track the Ivanpah links here.

Miscellaneous -- Nothing About The Bakken -- September 2, 2016
If you only have time to read one article today, read the short first-person account: "Sully" Sullenberger's Serene Texas Home in today's WSJ
In a couple of paragraphs, Sullenberger describes the 208 seconds that followed the bird hit. This was back in January, 2009.
The last paragraph really says it all:
For years I tried to resist the hero label. Now, with the passage of time, I have a much fuller appreciation of what happened that day. We all were doing our jobs. We just happened to do them exceptionally well.
That reminds me of my career in the US Air Force. There were so many times, and so many events, when everyone was simply doing her/his job -- and everyone just happened to do their jobs exceptionally well.
Catch And Release -- The New ObamaPolicy On Law Enforcement; If Amazon Absolutely, Positively Needs To Get It To You In Two Days -- They Buy It From Walmart; Iowans Want To Turn Down "Mailbox Money"; See Health Premiums Rise 40% -- September 2, 2016
Enbridge Puts Sandpiper Pipeline project on hold. Reported at Zacks. This pretty much only hurts blue-collar folks. Investors will benefit. Takeaway in the Bakken is more than adequate. Warren Buffett will open another bottle of champagne tonight. Enbridge to Minnesota: no mailbox money for you.
Gasoline Prices Over Labor Day Weekend May Be Lowest In Twelve Years
The story is reported here. By the way, John Kemp has tweeted that US refiners "went all out" this summer shifting from producing distillates like diesel to producing gasoline. Yesterday, the EIA said June, 2016, set a record for most gasoline produced in any month ever in the US. I'm not sure if that was exactly correct: it sort of depends what one is measuring, at least according to my astute readers.
National average for gasoline: around $2.25.
Compare with about $1.50 / gallon when President Obama took office in 2009.
What Cheap, Available Gasoline And Crude Oil Means
Even the Chinese and Indians want bigger cars. Ford will curtail plans for expanding small car production in China and India. Customers there want bigger SUVs and cross-overs. Ford will move small-car production from China and India to Brazil, Thailand, and Russia.
Petrobras "sheds" almost 12,000 employees. Reported elsewhere. No links. Easy to find.
Amazon, Target, And Walmart: One Big Distributor
This is a huge story: the writer says that the impact on Amazon is small, but something tells me this might be a bigger story some day. I'm sure very, very smart logisticians with math degrees and ability to write code at both Amazon and Walmart are studying this issue very, very carefully. If the link is broken, google retail arbitrage.
I'm not going to bother finding the links but it was reported that President Obama has pardoned or commuted more felons than the last 10 presidents combined.
Years ago, in high school or college, I wrote a note to myself, placed it in a sealed envelope, labeled it not to be opened until some time in the future, and then put it among my memorabilia. In that note to myself -- remember, this was as a high school or college student, decades ago -- I told myself that sometime in the future law enforcement would be nothing more than fishermen (not politically correct). The policy of law enforcement would eventually be one of "catch and release."
This was most likely high school; I did not have time for such nonsense when I was in college.
I was reminded of that by this story out of Milwaukee which recorded its worst month for homicides in 25 years.
"We've had a slight increase in domestic violence homicides this year, but the biggest driver of our homicides is arguments and fights and retaliation among people with criminal records," Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn said Thursday.
Misguided policies have misguided consequences. Oksol's Law.
By the way, what happened back in 1991.
It is the highest monthly total since July 1991, when the victims of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer were discovered.
Insurance Hikes
With dramatic drops in insurance company participation on the exchanges for some states, decreased competition and other factors are leading to often jarring rate hikes. Some of the states that are facing what are likely among the biggest increases this year — Tennessee, Arizona and North Carolina — were among those the Urban Institute reported in May had the biggest increases last year.
"The reality is, it's all very justified, unfortunately," Iowa insurance commissioner Nick Gerhart said Thursday of the premium increases he approved this week of 19% to 43% for about 70,000 Iowans who buy their own policies.
Gerhart warned consumers in a rate hearing in July that if he rejected insurers' proposed premium increases for 2017, the carriers would likely decline to sell policies in the state. No carriers made an explicit threat to leave Iowa, but the implication was clear, he says: "It gives you less room to maneuver." Iowa law, he said, requires him to judge proposed premium increases on whether experts find them to be justified by carriers' projected costs.
As other state insurance commissioners gradually sign off on insurers' rate requests — which should all be decided within a month — many consumers are learning what's in store for 2017.

August Jobs Report: The Goldilocks Number -- September 2, 2016
Later, 8:52 a.m. Central Time: I'm just waiting to see if BRK-B goes over $151. [Remember: this is not an investment blog.]
Later, 7:59 a.m. Central Time: this might be the "Goldilocks number." The 151,000 is "bad enough" to keep the Fed from raising rates, but good enough for folks to say this is the 71st consecutive month of job gains, and unemployment remains steady (and some would say, we are full employment, regardless). If the market has a really, really great day -- I will argue that the jobs report for August "hit" the Goldilocks number.
If it's a bad day on Wall Street, well, it must have been something else.
By the way, the July unemployment figure was revised upward. A revision of a monthly unemployment figure is said to be "very rare." Not for this administration.
Previously posted, but an important post that runs risk of being lost if not posted as a stand-alone.
August jobs data: the spinmeisters will call this a great report. In fact, it's pretty dismal. US adds 151,000 jobs (before the Obama administration, the magic number was 200,000: adding less than 200,000 jobs in any month was a sign of economic stagnation. Sometime during the Obama administration, the major business news outlets moved the goalposts). Full employment is the headline: unemployment rate unchanged at 4.9%. Let's see how Yahoo!Finance spins it:
The US labor market disappointed in August.
US companies added just 151,000 payrolls during the month, missing expectations for 180,000 payrolls.
While the numbers were lighter than expected, it reflects the 71st consecutive month of job gains, which is already the longest streak on record. [MORE SPIN]
The unemployment rate stood at 4.9% in August, which was higher than the 4.8% forecast by economists. Notably, the July unemployment rate was revised up to 4.9% from an earlier estimate of 4.8%.
Janet Yellen? At most: "one and done" and even that "one" may be delayed.
Even the expected 180,000 jobs would have been below the 200,000 threshold. Just saying.
How did the market react. Futures pointed to a slightly higher opening, maybe 30 points in the Dow 30, prior to the jobs report. If the market opens higher, it's because traders think the jobs report will delay "one and done"; if the market opens lower, traders are hunkering down for a two-fer: a worsening economy, and despite that, the Fed still talks about raising the rate sooner than later. (It's all relative: the Fed -- or at least the media -- has been talking about raising rates for the past five years, it seems.) Common sense would tell us that the jobs report will boost the market today.
So let's see: futures are now up almost 50 points.

RBN Energy: MPLX's plan for moving northeast condensate and natural gasoline.
MPLX LP and the midstream limited partnership's subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "MPLX") are stepping up to address a lingering hydrocarbon-delivery issue in the Utica and "wet" Marcellus plays, namely, how to more efficiently transport the field condensate and natural gasoline produced there to refineries, Western Canadian heavy-crude shippers and other end-users. Currently, condensate and natural gasoline are moved within and out of production areas in eastern Ohio, northern West Virginia and western Pennsylvania via truck, rail or barge. MPLX's three-part, $500-million plan, the first elements of which are nearing completion, is mostly about pipelines—a mix of new ones and creatively repurposed existing ones. It looks like a win-win for condensate and natural gasoline producers and buyers. Today we begin a series on improving the flow of these two close relatives in the hydrocarbon family to buyers in the Midwest and beyond.

Closing: it looks like the Dow 30 might be able to hold unto its gains, perhaps closing up 60 points by the end of the day. Another jump in the number of issues hitting new highs; and very, very few issues hitting new lows. NYSE --
new highs: 185

The Open: futures suggested a modest increase at the open, until the jobs report came out. Then futures jumped. The opening: up almost 100 points.

Hurricane Update
September 4, 2016: biggest "dud" of the year? of the decade? Remember: this is the first "hurricane" to his the US mainland in eleven (11) years. It made landfall just before the weekend, allowing plenty of time for networks to air the storm. But nothing. Absolutely nothing. This is a huge "dud." Barely made hurricane status -- if indeed it was even a hurricane -- yes, I know: it is devastating for those directly affected by it. I'm just amazed that so little has been said about it. It's as if it didn't happen. The first hurricane to make US landfall in eleven years. Global warming. Climate change. Extreme weather.
Later, 6:29 p.m. Central Time: maybe it's just me, but going through the major news outlets (outside of Florida) I find nothing on the Florida "hurricane" on the "front page":
WSJ: nothing on front page
NYT: small little story in middle of front page; hard to find
LAT: nothing (not unexpected)
Quick: google Hurricane Hermione wind and the first hit is a CNN story posted 22 hours ago. It was finally on the second page of hits that I found a wind-speed for this "hurricane." The site: Archy World News. This is what "they" reported:
As a Category 1 hurricane hit "Hermione" shortly before 2 am (local time) on Friday with gusts up to 130 kilometers per hour in St. Marks near Tallahassee on land.
The Saffir-Simpson hurricane wind scale is based on "sustained" winds. Category 1 is defined as sustained winds at 74 - 95 mph.
Considering this was the first Atlantic hurricane to hit land in eleven (11) years, the silent reporting is deafening.
Hurricane? Something tells me the numbers were fudged. To gain hurricane status, winds must reach 75 mph (sustained? spike?). When the storm was upgraded to "hurricane," we were told that winds were "about" 80 mph. This "about" was reported by the same organization that tells us, without question, they can predict the rise in global temperature to the tenth degree one hundred years from now. The phrase "about 80 mph" has now become the meme for this particular storm: everywhere it's being reported that the winds were 80 mph for this "hurricane." Whatever.

Q: Find the time complexity of the function "foo" I'm struggling to find the time complexity of this function:
void foo(int n) {
    int i, m = 1;
    for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        m *= n; // (m = n^n) ??
    }
    while (m > 1) {
        m /= 3;
    }
}

Well, the first for iteration is clearly O(n^n), the explanation to it is because m started with value 1, and multiplies itself n times.
Now, we start the while loop with m = n^n and we divide it every time by 3.
which means, (I guess), log(n^n).
Assuming I got it right up till now, I'm not sure if I need to sum or multiply, but my logic says I need to sum them, because they are 'odd' to each other.
So my assumption is: O(n^n) + O(log(n^n)) = O(n^n) Because if n is quite big, we can just refrain from O(log(n^n)).
Well, I really made many assumptions here, and I hope that makes sense. I'd love to hear your opinions about the time complexity of this function.

A: Theoretically, time complexity is O(n log n) because:
for (i=0; i<n; i++)
   m *= n;

this will be executed n times and in the end m=n^n
Then this
while (m>1)
   m /= 3;

will be executed log3(n^n) times which is n * log3(n):
P.S. But this is only if you count number of operations. In real life it takes much more time to calculate n^n because the numbers become too big. Also your function will overflow when you will be multiplying such big numbers and most probably you will be bounded by the maximum number of int (in which case the complexity will be O(n))

A: With foo(int n) and 32-bit int, n cannot exceed the magnitude of 10, else m *= n overflows.
Given such a small range that n works, the O() seems moot.  Even with 64-bit unsigned m, n <= 15.
So I suppose O(n lg(n)) is technically correct, but given the constraints of int, suspect code took more time to do a single printf() than iterate through foo(10).  IOWs it is practically O(1).
unsigned long long foo(int n) {
  unsigned long long cnt = 0;
  int i;
  unsigned long long m = 1;
  for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
    if (m >= ULLONG_MAX/n) exit(1);
    m *= n; // (m = n^n) ??
    cnt++;
  }
  while (m > 1) {
    m /= 3;
    cnt++;
  }
  return cnt;
}

Diameter of base up to 120 mm in shore-dwelling specimens, often larger in examples from deep water offshore.
The base is broad and very firmly adherent.
Column usually shorter than wide, with a well-marked parapet and a deep fosse. Verrucae always present, variable in size but generally well-developed, largest in the middle of the column and extending on to the parapet where they tend to form longitudinal rows. They are strongly adhesive and, in shore dwelling specimens at least, invariably have numerous particles of gravel and other debris stuck to them, a contracted anemone having the appearance of a rounded mound of gravel. Disc not normally wider than the parapet.
Tentacles: Stout, short, occasionally moderate in fullest extension, their decamerous arrangement easily determined, up to 160.
Colouration: Very variable, a common form being as follows: column red, irregularly blotched with green, the verrucae grey; disc pale blue-grey shading to red around the mouth, with a prominent pattern of broad red lines amongst the tentacle bases; tentacles greyish, banded with dull red and white. The range of variation is endless: white, yellow, orange, red, blue, grey, purple and brown are all common colours, occurring in various combinations or, less frequently, plain. The distinctive and typical pattern of red lines on the disc is usually present, but it differs in detail: often the lines enclosing the primary tentacles are bordered with white behind the tentacles, sometimes they coalesce to form a broad red area amongst the tentacle bases, sometimes the whole disc is plain red. The tentacles are usually banded but may be plain; another common form is red all over except for grey verrucae and plain white tentacles.
Typically a form of the lower shore, occurring in its greatest abundance in the Laminaria zone, particularly on shores exposed to strong wave action. Small specimens are frequently encountered as high as MTL and large ones are occasionally found in deep, permanent pools above the usual levels. It attaches to rocks and boulders, often crowding into crevices at the bottoms of pools and gullies, forming a dense carpet; also in caves, amongst Laminaria holdfasts, partly buried in gravel, etc. Offshore it occurs down to at least 100 m depth; specimens in the sublittoral may not bear the coating of gravel characteristic of shore dwellers.
A widespread species, common, often very abundant locally, on all coasts of the British Isles. It occurs throughout Europe from north Russia to Biscay but is absent from the Mediterranean. Apparently a boreal-arctic, circumpolar species but knowledge of its full distribution is incomplete.

Trump strikes Syria, media fire back, and other examples of their war against the president
By Dan Gainor, ,
Following the missile attack by U.S., French and British forces on Syrian chemical weapons targets that President Trump announced Friday, the anti-Trump media immediately fired back at the president, wondering if he ordered the strike to divert attention from news coverage of his troubles at home.
CNN anti-Trump Republican commentator Ana Navarro took the chance to bash President Trump once more, tweeting: "It is true Trump may have ordered strikes against Syria to distract attention from Comey book & Cohen investigation." She referred to the new book by fired FBI Director James Comey filled with criticism of the president, and to a U.S. Justice Department investigation of the president's personal attorney, Michael Cohen.
MSNBC's far-left Rachel Maddow said on her show minutes after President Trump announced the Syria attack that foreign leaders may believe the U.S. president "issued the order to launch this strike tonight, even in part, because … he wanted to distract from a catastrophic domestic scandal that is blowing up at home at the same time."
New York Times columnist Paul Krugman fired off a series of tweets saying the president is "dishonest, corrupt, quite possibly being blackmailed by a hostile foreign power" and raising the question: "Could such a man deliberately wag the dog?"
"Wag the Dog" is a 1997 films that tells the fictional story of a Hollywood producer and a spin doctor who stage a fake war to dominate new coverage and successfully divert media attention from a presidential sex scandal.
The New York Times used its editorial page to take President Trump to task for the attack on Syria. While the newspaper said the limited attack was "reassuring," it criticized the president for acting without congressional approval. It urged Congress to pass legislation limiting presidential power to wage war rather than "ceding broad powers to an impulsive president with dubious judgment."
Other pundits kept up the anti-Trump onslaught. The Atlantic Senior Editor David Frum also blasted Trump repeatedly, claiming: "The lives of Americans and the peace of the world are in hands you wouldn't trust with your beer money." He went on to argue that "the political leadership of the US is broken. No new wars under this president."
Esquire writer Charles P. Pierce mocked the president's comments after the strike: "Child very proud of new toy. And his fully-approved dollars."
CNN White House reporter Kaitlan Collins was one of several in the media to criticize Trump's use of the term "mission accomplished." She retweeted a comment by the president, adding this: "Oh man. 'Mission accomplished.' A phrase George W. Bush used in 2003, and later came to regret because it conveyed the wrong message, that the Iraq war was over."
RT, the embarrassingly pro-Putin Russian propaganda outlet, ran this unsubtle headline: "US acting as 'ISIS air force' in Syria, spreads 'conscious, transparent lie' – analysts to RT."
2. Going into the Sewer:
There's an old saying: "Sex sells." The media have clearly embraced that money-making idea, working overtime to draw viewers, readers and listeners by focusing much of their recent coverage on the Trump presidency on unproven and salacious allegations about the sexual behavior of the president many years ago.
The prevailing media wisdom is that stories about President Trump's success in creating jobs, cutting taxes, getting rid of needless regulations and accomplishing so much else is B-O-R-I-N-G.
But allegations that president denies about his sex life? Hey – that's entertainment that will draw an audience! As satirist Tom Lehrer sang in his 1960sc ode to pornography, titled "Smut": "More, more I'm still not satisfied!"
Stormy Daniels wasn't enough. It wasn't enough for the media to go digging through the ancient claims of a former porn star to try to find dirt on a president they hate. They had to jump in the sewer. CBS and NBC actually cautioned viewers about content Friday, with NBC anchor Lester Holt giving parents "a warning if there are small kids in the room."
Comey's new book helped the media dive into the filth. Titled "A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies, and Leadership," the book hits the stands next week and major media have been doing everything but standing on street corners selling copies.
Their obsession focused on Comey's comments about allegations – without a shred of evidence backing them up – claiming that President Donald Trump was involved with prostitutes in Moscow. President Trump has vehemently denied the sensationalist charge. This has become a national news story because journalists desperately want it to be true.
ABC anchor and former top aide to President Clinton George Stephanopoulos had a full interview with Comey. Part of that interview appeared on "Good Morning America" to help push Comey's book.
Stephanopoulos asked: "Was President Trump obstructing justice? Should Donald Trump be impeached?" Then the show cut to a promo … like there's a person in America who doesn't know what Comey will claim.
It wasn't just impeachment. Hillary Clinton biographer Carl Bernstein continued trying to tie President Trump to President Richard Nixon. He told CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360": "We're in a constitutional crisis," arguing that President Trump will shut down the meandering investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 presidential election. Despite repeated claims that this will happen, the media have been wrong every time on this.
CNN White House Correspondent Jim Acosta questioned the president's willingness to send out tweets criticizing Comey, asking: "Isn't all of that a bit unbecoming the presidency, of this White House to go after him (Comey) in such a personal way like that? Calling him a slime ball and a liar and a leaker?"
The GOP responded to Comey claims by reminding the world how much Democrats discredited Comey earlier, when they hated him for reporting on the FBI investigation of the Hillary Clinton email scandal. Republicans created an embarrassing video that shows politician after politician tearing down the fired FBI director they now lionize. Don't look for much of that on TV news. It destroys the narrative.
Because that's what this is about. The Chicago Tribune ran a telling column headlined: "Donald Trump's presidency is collapsing." That's what the left and media want.
Ultimately, the anti-Trump journalists couldn't care less about Daniels, prostitutes, etc. Their goal is to undermine the president with an onslaught of "news" intended to embarrass him and drive him from office any way they can.
3. Social Media Isn't So Social: Social media had a down-and-up week following a bizarre tweet from Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and then Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's apology tour of Capitol Hill.
Dorsey kicked off the week, posting "The Great Lesson of California in America's New Civil War." The article described how California became a one-party state and said "there's no way that a bipartisan path provides the way forward" for the United States. There's only one way, going left. The article was widely mocked online. Dorsey's take? "Great read." Disheartening for anyone hoping for fair treatment on Twitter.
Zuckerberg spoke first to committees in the Senate and then a House committee, saying he was "sorry" 15 separate times. The discussion was notable for a few reasons. National Review called it: "Grandpa Tries to Interrogate Your Company's IT Guy." The magazine wasn't wrong.
Members of Congress were sometimes poorly prepped, not just on the workings of social media, but the workings of the Internet. Democratic Sen. Brian Schatz of Hawaii didn't even understand you can't email within WhatsApp, "which is a text-messaging and voice-call app."
Republicans hammered home points about mistreatment of the right online. Zuckerberg responded to a grilling from Texas Sen. Ted Cruz by admitting: "Facebook and the tech industry are located in Silicon Valley, which is an extremely left-leaning place."
Zuckerberg denied Democratic claims that Facebook had aided the Obama campaign in 2012. Don't hold your breath waiting for journalists to dig into that story to find out what really happened.
4. The Paul Ryan Tidal Wave: Remember the tidal wave in "Deep Impact," the lesser of the 1998 meteor movies? That's what the media envision will happen in November, predicting that Democrats will gain majority control in the House and Senate.
This week's announced retirement of unpopular House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., further emphasized the media narrative. NBC correspondent Kasie Hunt underscored how "Ryan couldn't escape the building blue (Democratic) wave."
MSNBC anchor Lawrence O'Donnell said: "The big blue wave is looking so big, so overwhelming" to explain why Ryan is retiring. O'Donnell added: "Paul Ryan will take his seat as simply the worst of this country's speakers of the House of Representatives" and placed him below a "pedophile" and those who were "slave-owning."
The New York Times theoretically conservative columnist Bret Stephens told MSNBC that Ryan's refusal to resign to protest Trump "is going to be a stain on his political reputation forever."
