We extend the DuBois--Reymond necessary optimality condition and Noether's first theorem to variational problems of Herglotz type with time delay. Our results provide, as corollaries, the DuBois--Reymond necessary optimality condition and the first Noether theorem for variational problems with time delay recently proved in [Numer. Algebra Control Optim. 2 (2012), no. 3, 619--630]. Our main result is also a generalization of the first Noether-type theorem for the generalized variational principle of Herglotz proved in [Topol. Methods Nonlinear Anal. 20 (2002), no. 2, 261--273].
Keywords: time delay, Noether's theorem., invariance, Herglotz's calculus of variations, Euler--Lagrange differential equations, DuBois--Reymond necessary optimality condition.

SimplyCash Business Credit Card from American Express – The application for this small business credit card promises a "60 Second Decision." If you qualify, you'll get 5% cash back on purchases at U.S. office supply stores and on wireless telephone services purchased directly from U.S. service providers. You'll also get 3% cash back on one spending category of your choice (choices include airfare, hotel, gas, restaurants, more), and 1% cash back on all other purchases with the card.
PNC Cash Rewards Visa Business Card – "Apply online and get a response in minutes." If approved, get 1.5% cash back on all purchases with the card, a very nice reward, especially for a no annual fee business credit card. If your credit is excellent, you could get an interest rate as low as 11.99%, but, if not, your rate could be as high as 20.99%.
TD Business Solutions Visa – This business credit card MAY approve you instantly — see the site's language: "If approved, you'll get an immediate response and receive your card(s) within 5-7 business days. If further review is required, we'll mail our decision to you within 30 days." If you are approved, you'll earn 3% cash back on Internet, cable, and phone services, 2% cash back on dining and gas station charges, and 1% on everything else.
Lowe's Business Rewards Card from American Express – Business credit card with a bit of a Lowe's specific rewards formula, and a "60 Second Decision" on approval. This card offers 3 points per dollar at restaurants and office supply stores in the US, and on wireless telephone services purchased directly from US service providers, 2 points per dollar on Lowe's purchases, and 1 point per dollar on all other purchases. Redeem points for gifts cards from American Express, Lowe's and other options, too.
Capital One Spark Cash Select – Capital One does not advertise its business credit cards as instant approval, but we have evidence from a number of sources that they often do instantly approve applications. In addition, Capital One does say that they attempt to provide instant decisions on their consumer credit cards, so this also supports our thought that you may be instantly approved for this card. The particulars of this card: earn 1.5% cash back on all purchases, no annual fee, interest rate anywhere from 13.74% to 21.74% depending on your credit history.
American Express Blue For Business Plus – You'll get a "60-second decision" on your application for this business Amex. If instantly approved, you'll get a card that offers 2 American Express Membership Rewards points per dollar on your first $50K in card purchases per year (1 point per dollar after $50K). Points can be used for a variety of cash, merchandise, and travel rewards.
Regions Bank Business Enhanced Card – "If you apply by phone or online, you will often get a response in 60 seconds." Note that there is no guarantee of instant approval, however. If you are approved, you'll get a fairly standard business credit card that offers points via the bank's Relationship Rewards program, which generally means 1 point per dollar charged to the card, but there are some bonus point opportunities as well.

Rigorous evaluation of market is key in identifying viable startups
Copyright © 2016, The Oklahoma Publishing Company
Success always brings more success. Likewise, capital begets capital and deals beget deals. The best way to get more of both is to create more successful startups with products that the market wants to buy.
Those of us building an innovation economy are constantly evolving to efficiently and reliably direct our resources — money and human capital — at deals with the best opportunity to succeed. We seek evidence that a startup has a shot at solving a high-priority problem that either reduces cost, increases revenue, or allows a business to accomplish a priority that it couldn't before.
We want to figure that out before an entrepreneur wastes money, time, or the application of a promising technology on a solution that no customer wants to buy.
At i2E, over the last 17 years, we have built a venture assessment pipeline that in FY 2015 positioned 34 companies for funding, with 31 clients obtaining more than $49 million in private equity capital.
We are able to position this many Oklahoma companies for funding because we tackle product/market fit questions first. Venture assessment is the first step for any potential client of i2E. Our three-week program serves as the first step a potential client and our staff take together to determine if the new concept has the necessary market potential. Our process includes an intense working session each Thursday night in both Tulsa and Oklahoma City.
"We challenge the entrepreneurs to prove to us that customers want the solution they are building" said Stacey Brandhorst, i2E venture adviser. "We push the entrepreneurs to ask themselves and their potential customers the hard questions. We show entrepreneurs the weaknesses in their market plan and then work with them to mitigate those risks."
Between sessions, entrepreneurs complete outside tasks including customer interviews and receive one-on-one support from i2E.
We know we aren't going to figure out a whole company in a few hours over three weeks, but we can get to the "red, yellow or green" point. On average, two of the six or so companies in each cohort become i2E clients.
It's not unusual through this process to see a startup pivot from the original business concept to something more closely aligned with what the market wants.
"We try not to discourage, but we do dispense tough love," Brandhorst said. "If you are working on something that is never going to happen, and we have the facts to support that, why not give it up and work on something that will?"
If, at the end of the three weeks, the company becomes a client, that's great. If it goes the other way and we determine that the business concept isn't viable and the entrepreneur goes on to create another business, that's a good thing, too.
Read the full story at The Oklahoman.
In 2015, venture capital investment hit a 15-year high with $11.3 billion total dollars, topping every year since 2000. It's the second highest record since the Moneytree Report began in 1995.

Alexandre Beaudoin and Mathieu Boyd of Miel Montréal, being interviewed by professor Nathan McClintock and students.
This afternoon, we split up into two groups to visit beekeepers with both different models of beekeeping and different organizational models. Alvéole is a business that employs ten people who have set up 400 beehives at 150 locations, including homeowners, schools, companies and a homeless shelter. They train clients to maintain the hives through bi-monthly, on-site training. Their program is more focused on education rather than maximizing honey production, but clients do harvest and distribute their honey among members, students or employees.
Miel Montréal is a not-for-profit collective and educational service for aspiring beekeepers and schools. They teach people about the role of bees as pollinators; collective decision-making and processes are also part of their educational platform. Miel Montréal helps keep 35 hives, has at least one paid staff and up to fifteen part-time paid staff in the summer; they also rely heavily on collective members who volunteer their time to sell honey or take responsibility for administrative tasks.
A bee at Miel Montréal's site.
One of the issues that we explored in both groups, each of which had their own framing, was the idea of an urban commons (our lens) from which privately kept bees must feed in order to produce honey. The city has only so many flowers whose nectar bees drink, which puts an environmental limit on the amount of honey that can be produced no matter how many hives exist. Plus, bees compete with other native pollinators that also depend on the nectar of the city's flowers.
Alvéole says that so far, they've seen no issue with the current quantity of beehives; no limits to honey production have been observed with the current number of hives in Montreal. Limiting the number of hives should not be the focus of policy, Alvéole argues. Instead, the issue is about expanding the flower supply in the city, which urban gardens are already doing. There is room for more nectar. School boards have a policy on the books prohibiting flower planting and fruit trees; changing this policy could allow more space for pollinators. Alvéole has also promoted a policy with the city parks they call "the two-week challenge". Montreal's parks fill with clover and dandelion in the spring, but often get immediately mowed over by the City; if the City would leave these parks for two weeks, lots more nectar would be available for bees.
The garden (foreground) and bee hive structure (background) at Miel Montréal.
Miel Montréal has a somewhat different approach to both beekeeping and managing an urban commons. They focus on two principles—that of frugality and that of precaution. Frugality means limiting human honey consumption. One thing the collective teaches its students is that over its lifetime, one bee produces one-eighth of a teaspoon. Humans consume honey in ways that demand industrial-scale production and without an awareness of natural processes.
Here, the precautionary principle invoked by the collective means waiting for more research on the effect on existing pollinators before pursuing an expansion of urban beehives and honey production. They also focus on a broader understanding of the ecological system of the city. Miel Montréal teaches that simply having more beehives in the city or having a beehive in your backyard does not help to stop colony collapse. Instead, we should be trying to understand the factors that contribute to collapse. They make an analogy to elephants in Africa that are dying off. Raising elephants elsewhere is clearly not the solution; instead understanding and addressing the real factors that are contributing to extinction is the crucial point. They stress the importance of a more comprehensive understanding of the plight of bees.
So far, policies governing urban beekeeping do not fully contemplate the idea of an urban commons. As planning, policy, and practice in urban agriculture evolves, it is important to see how this idea is conceptualized and operationalized by different, and even competing, models of beekeeping.
We're a group of graduate students from Portland State University, l'Université du Québec à Montréal, and l'Université de Montréal. We're studying urban agriculture in Portland, Oregon and Montréal, Québec. Follow along as we document our research during the summer and fall of 2015!

Indiana takes care of Butler in the Crossroads Classic to close nonconference play
Jackson Yeary
Archie Miller and Indiana comfortably earned another win in their second home at Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Saturday afternoon against Butler in the Crossroads Classic.

The Hoosiers rode the momentum of Armaan Franklin's consistency and woke up after a dismal first half to upend the Bulldogs, 68-60, and close out nonconference play with a 5-2 record.
Miller is now 4-0 in the Crossroads Classic and 5-0 at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in his tenure at Indiana. The Hoosiers are also 7-3 in the event's history, the best record of the four competing teams.
Indiana showcased a lot of maturity and growth going from the first half to the second as it flipped the script and took total control of the game. Second-half adjustments in post play on offense and locking down defensively, in addition to Franklin's career-high 20 points, created dominance on both ends of the floor.
"To start the game, we weren't ready for the physicality," Miller said. "They were a much tougher team than us in the first half. I thought in the second half we came out with a much better approach. Our attitude was much different."
Indiana's biggest strengths, the packline defense and post offense from Trayce Jackson-Davis and Race Thompson, weren't there in the first half.
A shorthanded Butler team without leading scorer Aaron Thompson found a multitude of ways to expose Indiana's defense early on. The Bulldogs shot 53.8% from the field and were 5-for-7 from 3-point range. They also outrebounded Indiana 17-11 and got nine points off turnovers. Butler's quick start built a 37-32 halftime lead, but the momentum made it seem much larger.
Tighter defense changed the game in the second half, though. Indiana only allowed Butler to score six points in the first 10 minutes of the second half, as well as only 23 points for the entirety of the last period.
"We were able to do a much better job of being tougher inside," Miller said. "They didn't shoot any uncontested layups in the second half."
Jackson-Davis ensured Butler had no easy looks with his presence at the rim and his career-high five blocks. The improved second-half defense was a result of Jackson-Davis and Thompson's effort, which energized the duo on the offensive end of the floor, as well.

Jackson-Davis was steady all game and finished with 21 points and eight rebounds, but Thompson coming alive in the second half made a big difference to the team's success.
In the first half, Thompson struggled with zero points on 0-for-3 shooting with two turnovers, too. In the second, Thompson scored 10 points and gave Indiana another scoring threat and diversified the offense.
"It really opens up the game," Jackson-Davis said of Thompson's success. "Even with Race just shooting those shots so they can't sag off of him really helps."
Combining the two post players' solid performances with the continued growth and consistency of Franklin is what gave Indiana the extra edge to finish soundly.
Franklin, an Indianapolis native, has always found success playing in Bankers Life Fieldhouse throughout his Indiana career and that was no different today.
Last year, he hit the game-winning shot against Notre Dame in the Crossroads Classic and had 17 points against Nebraska in the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis, as well.
On Saturday, he had a career-high 20 points and was excellent from 3-point range yet again, making five of his seven 3-pointers for the second consecutive game. Thirteen of the 20 points came in the first half and kept IU in the game early on.
"Our guards did a good job, those guys did some really good things to help Armaan get going," Miller said. "But make no mistake, those were big shots that Armaan made and his confidence level is at a really good place."

The router is the micro routing control plane. It manages intelligent routing on top of the registry.

## Overview

The router is a layer on top of the micro registry which provides intelligent routing based on metrics, feedback
and other router information. The registry is a dumb database of sorts. The router enables us to build
a network topology that morphs and flows based on changing traffic patterns.

## Usage

The router is primarily a package in go-micro that is leveraged by the client/selector and proxy.
The selector does a route Lookup for a service and gets back optimal routes in an ordered list.
It can provide feedback to the router about how that route performed which can then be used to
change the metrics associated with this route. In the event the router receives the same routes
from other routers with different metrics it can take this into consideration.

The router additionally stores the metadata associated with each service and its nodes and can
use these for dynamic label based routing. Where the path the request take is based on the label
associated with the service rather than the address.

## Interface

Rough interface reference

```go
type Router interface {
	// lookup a service, additionally provide label filters
	Lookup(service, ...opts) ([]Route, error)
	// Update the metrics for a route
	Update(Route, Metric) error
	// Advertise routes
	Advertise() (<-chan Route, error)
	// Process adverts
	Process(Route) error
	// Get router status
	Status() (Info, error)
}

type Route struct {
	Service string
	Address string
	Metadata map[string]string
	Metric float64
}
```


She spent much of the year honing her skills on the ice rink for her role in box office hit I, Tonya.
But Margot Robbie, 27, swapped her skates for a snowboard over the festive season as she heralded the beginning of 2018 on the slopes with husband Tom Ackerley.
In a snap shared to film producer Tom's Instagram story this Friday, the enamoured duo can be seen posing on the slopes in full snowboarding garb.
'Great way to bring in 2018!' exclaimed Tom in the caption as he and Margot poked out their tongues towards their reflection in a pair of ski goggles.
'What a couple!!!!! Hope that 2018 be a good year for you guys,' another cooed.
Joining the pair on their ski getaway was Margot's friend Lottie Faulkner, who shared a selfie with the actress on Thursday.
'Silly good day!' Lottie captioned the snap.
Another photo shared by Margot's pal Laura Jackson showed their group posing on the slopes.
Sitting on the snow, the I, Tonya star raises a ski in one hand as she beams happily for the camera.
'Ski fall ski drink ski drink food ski drink dance ski love ski drink,' Laura captioned the photo.
The trip comes amid mounting Oscar buzz for Margot's lauded portrayal of infamous ice skater Tonya Harding in her latest flick I, Tonya.
The film, produced by Margot and Tom, has managed to score an 90 per cent fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Margot lauded for her funny and sympathetic portrait of Tonya.
Skating success: The trip comes amid mounting Oscar buzz for Margot's lauded portrayal of infamous ice skater Tonya Harding in her latest flick I, Tonya.

"We amass about $100 million in debt per hour, which means we've blown through 300, 400, 450 million dollars during this charade."
— PolitiFact Texas on Thursday, February 28th, 2019


Betsy Devos, secretary of the United States Department of Education, has proposed $10.6 billion in cuts for public education institutions, targeting, among other things, after-school programs, technical and career training, special education, and college grants.
The proposal presented by the USDOE would use the savings from the cuts toward giving families the option to use vouchers of federal tax dollars for sending their children to private and religious schools, as well as charter and magnet schools, and for homeschooling.
The Washington state constitution prohibits state dollars from going toward religious schools.
The use of government funds to help religious schools also raises the concern of the jeopardy of the separation of church and state.
"It's never OK for public dollars to fund discrimination," said Elise Helgesen Aguilar, the Federal Legislative Counsel for Americans United for Separation of Church and State, in an article on the organization's website. AU was founded in 1947. A concern is that religious schools would not be kept to the standards of public schools, and would be allowed to discriminate against LGBTQ students. Devos said she would leave that for the states to decide.
Another concern is that private schools aren't required to stay up to certain academic standards the way public schools are. U.S. Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wis.) challenged Devos on this during a congressional committee's questioning of Devos on the proposal, citing an example of a private voucher school in Milwaukee that failed to teach students how to read.
Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) is another opponent of Devos's proposal.
"The budget would weaken communities by eliminating funding for afterschool programs, grant-aid for struggling college students, and teacher and principal training programs, and so much more — even Special Olympics education programs," Murray said in response to the proposal.
Grand Coulee Dam School District Superintendent Paul Turner has concerns, and is waiting, along with the rest of the country, to see what does get approved, and what the details and ramifications really would be.
Nancy Kuiper, Out of Schools program director of Lake Roosevelt's 21st Century Community Learning Center, supports the initiative.
The 21st Century Community Learning Center program Kuiper directs uses grants to fund the popular SHARP Kids after-school program, which helps students with homework, among other things. The program will be funded for the 2017-18 school year, but its fate is uncertain after that.
Devos's budget proposal says cutting the 21st CCLC program would save $1.2 billion nationwide. "The program lacks strong evidence of meeting its objectives, such as improving student achievement," the proposal states.
Devos's appointment to head the USDOE has been criticized due to her lack of experience in public education, either in her own education or as an employee.

As much music that I've got ready to swamp Velvet, I doubt that I'll get anything out tomorrow, because once I've got my records (and wished my grandma a happy birthday) I'll be off to bed then out getting very happy on overpriced beer. If anything is posted, it'll be posted if not, give Baby Strange a whirl. Or Tom Vek's new track Sherman. Better yet, the second track from Wolf Alice's new EP (I forget the name as I've had two hours sleep), it's some bloody good music.
Anyway, stay safe, stay warm if you're queuing in the UK right now, but most importantly, remember that Independent Record stores aren't a one day a year visit. Cherish your record store day purchases, but check out your local store in a couple of weeks,ask the staff what they recommend, fall in love with your local store.
