Backdoor Purposivism
Anita S. Krishnakumar
It has become standard among statutory interpretation commentators to declare that, "We are all textualists now." The comment stems from the observation that in the modern, post-Scalia era, all of the Justices on the U.S. Supreme Court pay significant attention to statutory text when construing statutes and, relatedly, that legislative history use by the Court as a whole has declined since its heyday in the 1970s. The account of textualism's triumph is so prevalent that some scholars have declared purposivism—or at least traditional purposivism—essentially defunct. Two prominent textualist scholars in particular have suggested that there is a "new purposivism" at work on the modern Court and that this purposivism is textually constrained, limiting its focus to the means identified in the text of the statute rather than the underlying policy objectives motivating the statute—or, alternately, using purpose as a threshold consideration in determining whether a statute's text is ambiguous in the first place.
This Article challenges the conventional "purposivism is dead or dying" narrative in two important ways. First, relying on data from an empirical analysis of 499 Roberts Court statutory interpretation cases decided between 2006 and 2017, it argues that traditional purposivism is alive and well on the modern Supreme Court. That is, while purposivist Justices in the modern era do pay attention to text and invoke textual canons in a way that their 1970s purposivist counterparts did not, modern purposivists have not abandoned the traditional purposive approach of identifying a statute's policy objective and adopting the construction that best fits that objective. On the contrary, modern purposivists regularly invoke statutory purpose, intent, and legislative history—even if the Court as a whole does not. Second, and perhaps more importantly, the Court's textualist Justices have been quietly engaging in a form of purposive analysis that comes closer to traditional purposivism than scholars and jurists have recognized. That is, the textualist Justices regularly have been using pragmatic reasoning, as well as traditional textual canons such as noscitur a sociis and the whole act rule, to impute a specific intent or policy goal to Congress. This practice, which I call "backdoor purposivism," goes beyond using text as the best evidence of statutory purpose and entails significant judicial guesswork and construction of legislative purpose and intent.
The Article suggests that, in the end, there may be less distance between textualists and purposivists than the old debates suggest—but because textualists have embraced purpose and intent in unexpected ways, rather than because, or merely because, purposivists have become more text focused. It concludes by advocating that both textualists and purposivists employ interpretive resources outside their preferred toolkit to check the accuracy of their initial statutory readings and to curb the influence of their inherent personal biases.

Helga: New Single Out Now!
Hailing from the deep forests Dalarna, Sweden, Helga is back from hibernating in the wilderness with angsty punk-rock track Mörker. Confined to a cabin with just a guitar for company, she takes inspiration from the beauty that surrounds her making her songwriting process completely raw. You can listen to this excellent new track in full below!
Helga is taking on a darker side of rock n'roll. Mörker houses an even darker tone of grunge-rock, showcasing her tribal-esque vocals, steady drumbeats and rocking guitars. The track proves that rebellious and unique punk music is still alive. Inspired by a wide range of artists from the post-rock and metal scenes, Helga even enjoys adding folk and classical music into the mix.
Known for coming from black metal roots, Helga adds a dash of modern pop with every record creating an eccentric blend of punk providing you with a true hard rock experience. To best describe Helga, think The Birthday Party mixed with Blood Youth; Mörker is the opening track of her upcoming EP The Autumn Lament, which is set for release on September 20th 2019. Helga tells us her new music is "a musical translation of my inner and physical world. I personally love reverb-drenched music and sounds, drawing inspiration from my dream world, the misty forests, and Swedish folk music."
In a time when the environment is ever more under threat, it's only natural that meditation upon the state of the world, while full of beauty, is tinged with darkness and melancholy.

Many 'perfume' oils on the market are made with fragrance oils which are made with synthetic materials, alcohols and chemicals. Many of us have used synthetically fragranced products and noticed they lacked true to earth scent profiles; aromas of real flowers, herbs and botanical elements.
Moon Mantra's natural perfume oils contain only 100% pure, essential oils, handcrafted botanical infusions, organic carrier oils, gems & minerals. Depending on the blend, Moon Mantra uses organic grape seed, organic coconut, organic sweet almond or organic avocado oil. I like to maintain flexibility in my choice of carrier oils as some natural hues, faint aromas and textures will work well with certain botanical elements and not with others. The term 'perfume' is utilized because it lends itself in how to use them. By anointing your reflexology points i.e. wrists, earlobes, temples etc. with natural, pure essential oils derived of whole plant medicines; you allow yourself to smell delightful and to feel even better.
These natural elements have invigorating & healing aromas that can align and soothe our hearts & minds. This is called subtle aromatherapy. These entirely natural, healing oils do not stick to skin all day; but instead they linger subtly on the body and coexist in harmony with each person's ecosystem. After 3-6 hours, take the time to reapply your healing perfume oil and enjoy the meditative, healing intention you have created by working in harmony with nature's most cherished plant medicines.
Avoid if pregnant. May cause dermatitis in some people with sensitive skin. Make sure you are educated on the use of essential oils before using. By reading and purchasing this listing, you release Moon Mantra from any liability arising out of use of this product. Use at your own risk.

Q: Filter for the Numbers Following a String on a Webpage With a Python Web Scraper I'm trying to filter for the total number of followers between all stories on an account. I've managed to do all the basics and put everything needed in the 'header' variable, I just need to filter out everything except the number following "Follows:" but can't find how to do that. Any help is appreciated.
(Yes, I know I have a lot of imports I don't need, this project was kind of slapped together and I copied the imports from another Webscraping project I'm working on)
Edit: The end goal is to add all of the follows together
import bs4
import sys
import os
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
import pandas as pd
from urllib.request import urlopen as uReq
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as soup

driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='C:/Users/Curious Beats/Downloads/chromedriver.exe')

driver.get("https://www.fictionpress.com/u/541077/Imperfect-Princess")

page_html = driver.page_source
page_soup = soup(page_html, "html.parser")

list_header = []
header = page_soup.find_all("div",{"class":"z-padtop2 xgray"})
for items in header:
        try:
            list_header.append(items.get_text())
        except:
            continue

driver.quit()

A: What happens?
You try to find_all() the header info with multiple class names, what wont work this way:
find_all("div",{"class":"z-padtop2 xgray"})

How to fix that?
Use the css selector, think it is much easier to chain the classes this way:
soup.select('div.z-padtop2.xgray')

How to get the number of follows?
If you do not wanna use regex just split() the text and select the value by .index('Follows:')+1
follows = items.get_text().split()
list_header.append(follows[follows.index('Follows:')+1])

Example
from selenium import webdriver
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as soup
from time import sleep

driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='C:\Program Files\ChromeDriver\chromedriver.exe')
url = "https://www.fictionpress.com/u/541077/Imperfect-Princess"

driver.get(url)
sleep(5)

soup = BeautifulSoup(driver.page_source, "lxml")

list_header = []
header = soup.select('div.z-padtop2.xgray')
for items in header:
        try:
            follows = items.get_text().split()
            list_header.append(follows[follows.index('Follows:')+1])
        except:
            list_header.append('no follows')
            continue

driver.quit()
list_header

Output
['1,174',
 '364',
 '1,965',
 '34',

 '215',

Q: Memory Optimized Table and a disk table in another database in one transaction I have a SQL Transaction like this:
BEGIN Transaction [Trans1]
        BEGIN TRY
          Insert Into MemoryOptimizedTable
          Update [OtherDatabase].[dbo].[DiskTable]
        COMMIT TRANSACTION [Trans1]
        END TRY
    BEGIN CATCH
    END CATCH

This Transaction gives this error on the update line:

A user transaction that accesses memory optimized tables or natively
compiled modules cannot access more than one user database or
databases model and msdb, and it cannot write to master.

What alternatives do I have with regards to making sure both the Insert and Update statements succeed or they both fail? I mean is there an alternative to a transaction? or maybe a workaround?


There a lot of folks who are unfamiliar with how their portable digital devices evolved from many dedicated individuals who furthered magnetic sound recording. Martin Camras for example was looking for a way for his cousin to hear the music his cousin was performing. Edison and Paulson were looking to provide telephone answering and dictation machines.
A University of Texas professor asked that we bring a tape recorder to her audio engineering class, as the majority of the students had no clue what they were. If you have similar experiences, please share them with us.
We hope this Museum shines some light and creates interest in the technology!
Through displaying and demonstrating the wide variety of recording devices, the Museum provides insight into the development of sound recording, the innovators who brought us the evolution of sound technology and the engineers who created new and exciting sound recording techniques.
Our library of information which contains relevant magazines, catalogs, manuals and ads is available for research.
The ability to playback sound was explored for centuries. Often cited as the earliest playback system would have been music boxes.
In Baghdad, Iraq, the Banū Mūsā brothers, a trio of Persian inventors, produced "the earliest known mechanical musical instrument", in this case a hydropowered organ which played interchangeable cylinders automatically, which they described in their Book of Ingenious Devices. According to Charles B. Fowler, this "cylinder with raised pins on the surface remained the basic device to produce and reproduce music mechanically until the second half of the nineteenth century."
The player piano arrived in 1876 and could considered one of the earliest forms of music playback.
Next came the cylinder recorder/player.
We want to note here that there is a difference between cylinder recording and magnetic recording. They both have the same goal of reflecting the final sound.
With cylinders and records the sound waves vibrate and that in turn translates into a physical etching on the wax cylinder or on the lacquer record. The sound is amplified through the cone attached to the player. Whereas magnetic recording takes the vibrations of sound through a microphone and converts them into electrical pulses that are then imprinted on the magnetic particles on tape or wire. Playback occurs through electronically amplified equipment.
The Edison cylinder phonograph came into being in 1877. To give some perspective on the timing of all this, Bell Telephone was founded that year and Crazy Horse and his warriors fought their last battle with the United States Cavalry in Montana.
Cylinder materials used to capture the sound vibrations with a stylus included tin foil, lead or wax. Wax became the easiest to mass produce.
The disk based gramophone, or record as we know it, was patented by Emile Berliner in 1887. The record had slightly greater fidelity and were easier to duplicate with a molding process. Incidentally Berliner also created one of the first microphones in 1876. His goal in developing recording was so that folks could record their last thoughts as they lay on their deathbeds. Interestingly the first gramophone quality was so bad that lyrics were include with the record so folks could understand the content.
Everything dealing with recording audio and music prior to 1946 were record players, record cutters and prior to them the cylinder cutters and players. Interestingly, cylinders were not produced after 1929. The advent of the microphone and electrical recordings greatly improved the quality of the recording process on disc records. By 1925, all the major record companies had moved to recording using electrical microphones. Electric powered phonographs were introduced in 1930, but crystal pick-ups and electronic reproduction did not arrive until the late 1930's.
In the 1930's the Brush Development Company, who later came out with one of the first commercially available reel to reel tape recorders, was initially making crystals for phonographs. You will find this is true of many of the companies including Ampex and others who were manufacturers of a variety of things from speakers to electric motors and other recording equipment before they evolved to the tape recorder.
To move from mechanical cylinder and record recording, the next significant step involved Americans Lee De Forest and Edwin Armstrong. Forest came up with the vacuum tube which could amplify weak signals, and Armstrong whose circuit development made recording amplification possible. These developments occurred in the early to mid 1920's. The telephone benefited mostly from their work by amplifying signals enabling them to travel longer distances.
Valdemar Poulson was the first person credited with demonstrating the first model of a magnetic tape recorder. Paulson's work was more based on trying to provide a means of allowing people to leave messages when they were making telephone calls. Even though the magnetic recording principles were described previously by Oberlin Smith in 1878 it was not until 1898 that the actual device was demonstrated. In 1888 Smith, decided not to pursue his idea and released it to the public by publishing his ideas about magnetic recording in the journal Electrical World.
Musicians will be interested to know that neither Smith, Poulson nor Edison saw the magnetic recording field as something for entertainment. It was described as a means to document information and for the workplace to provide dictation resources.
So even after those early recording discoveries, the recording industry continued to be based on cylinders and records. This went on for a considerable amount of time.
In 1924 Germany Dr. Kurt Stille developed a dictating machine using wire, however it was not of broadcast quality.
In 1931, using Stille's invention, Louis Blattner, a German in England, developed the Blattnerphone. For time perspective Abbey Road Studios and the Empire State building also opened that year.
In Christmas Day in 1932 the BBC first used a steel tape recorder for their broadcasts. The recorder was a Marconi –Stille recorder, a huge machine using steel razor tape 3mm wide running at 90 meters per minute or 300 feet per minute. This meant the length of tape required for a half hour program was 1.8 miles long and weighed 55lbs. In some of the early wire recording stories it's noted that some of the wire recorders were running at such a high speed and using such a large core of metal that it could often, when there was a break or problem with a machine, that you could end up severing a finger, losing a hand, or worse.
So folks now had wire recorders which could record and play back sound. It should be noted that wire recording was of inferior quality to records and created problems in tangled wire and difficult splicing. Solder was used to splice broken wire and would pop as the splice passed by the heads.
So now more about magnetic recording.
Musicians and recording folks may be interested to learn that the first magnetic recording tape evolved from old cigarette paper. An Austrian named Fritz Pfleumer had developed a process for putting metal stripes on cigarette papers to prevent the staining of smokers' lips by the cigarette papers of the time. Being aware of and interested in Poulson's recording discoveries, Pfeumer reasoned he could similarly coat his papers with a magnetic strip to be used as an alternative to wire recording. He used a very thin paper coated with iron oxide, used lacquer as glue and received a patent from Germany in 1928. In 1932 he granted the right to use the invention to AEG who then built the first practical tape recorder named the Magnetaphon.
Magnetic recording tape, being the essential part of reel to reel tape recorders, had its industrial beginning around 1932 when AEG and BASF combined their resources to develop magnetic recording tape.
In the mid 1930's Germany's AEG was working on magnetic tape and the Magnetephon was first being tested. In 1935 Bell Telephone was working with steel tape machines and they were the first to present stereo recording on steel wire at the World's Fair in 1939.
The first demonstration of the reel to reel tape recorder, the Magnetaphon K1 took place in Berlin in 1935 running at 30 inches per second and made a hit because it used plastic tape instead of steel. The basic functions of this machine are the basis for the evolving reel to reel tape recorders.
Interestingly, the original Soundmirror by Brush was actually a wire recorder that was developed around 1937. In an article in a tape recording magazine from 1958, it is stated that from the time of the collapse of the American Telegraphone Company in 1918 until 1937 when the Brush Soundmirror wire recorder was placed on the market, no magnetic recording equipment was made in the United States.
The early Soundmirror had a recording time of only one minute on an endless tape. Brush also brought out paper tape with which the Bell Telephone labs. were experimenting, but was not placed on the market.
Brush Development also received a Navel Research and Development contract for a machine that would use tape instead of wire. The US military during WW2 extensively used wire recorders and wire recorders were still in a lot of the catalogs that we have in our resources into the early 50's.
In 1943 Webcor was building wire recorders for the Navy.
In 1944 3M (Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing) started experimenting with tape.
During World War II, the Allies kept hearing these live concerts over German radio and initially thought the Third Reich was keeping large orchestras playing live night and day. It was later learned that it was the Magnetephon and its ability to play back realistic recordings for periods longer than possible using lacquer records.
It is those Magnetaphon recorders that John Mullin brought back from Germany after WWII and subsequently introduced to Bing Crosby that resulted in Crosby's backing Ampex with $50,000 of his own money. The attraction to tape recorders was the ability to edit without the significant loss of quality. Prior to tape, as was the case with Bing Crosby, sound information was cut directly from the performance to the record. So, if a mistake was made, the record was useless. To edit the content had to be transferred from record to record. This, of courses, caused a loss of sound quality each time it was done. Magnetic tape itself evolved in part because engineers desired to have the ability to edit recordings.
A couple of other notes. There was a very limited amount of recording tape for Mullin to bring back from Germany. So, in his early work for Crosby, Mullin would have to erase previously recorded programs and keep recycling the tape.
German engineers had also developed AC biasing during WWII. We're not going into bias detail here except to say it greatly increased the signal quality in magnetic tape recording. Akai, Roberts and other manufacturers noted this with the marketing of their Cross Field heads.
In 1946 the Shure Microphone Company began developing methods of mass producing heads for tape recorders. Later Nortronics was a significant supplier of tape recorder heads.
The reels for tape recorders evolved from movie reels. They were 7 inches wide and held 1/4 inch media.
In our catalog collection, the first wire recorder we found for commercial sale was in 1946. This was for the Utah 60 Magic Wire Recorder and Playback and it ran $350.
The company Magnacord was incorporated in 1946 and produced the only professional wire recorder ever made. They called it the SD-1, standing for super duper. They also made the little device called the Audiad, which was a point of sale machine and had a very simple tape drive of about 6 inches per second.
In 1947 Brush was running their National ads for the SoundMirror in publications, including the Saturday Evening Post.

Q: How to set the path to the file in the project? If you keep the full path, then everything works. But this will not work, as it should be run on other computers.
My attempts to write the path:
const jsonData = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('/app/data/faqQuestions', { encoding: 'utf8' }));

Issues in the console:
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'C:\app\data\faqQuestions.json'

If you remove the slash before: app/data/faqQuestions.json:
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'C:\Users\mi\AppData\Local\Temp\meteor-test-runqxi9h2.08bd.meteor\local\build\programs\server\app\data\faqQuestions.json'

It is necessary to prescribe the correct path to work on any computer.
I need something like PWD.

A: You can use the path module in node to get the correct path in the filesystem:
const path = require('path');
const fs = require('fs');

const filepath = path.resolve('/app/data');
const jsonFile = fs.readFileSync(path.join(filepath, 'faqQuestions.json'), { encoding: 'utf8' });
const jsonData = JSON.parse(jsonFile);
console.log('data', jsonData);

A: Welcome to Stack Overflow. You shouldn't be accessing the file system directly like this. There are a couple of reasons for it:
1) Locations will vary from computer to computer
2) When deployed to a docker container in production, the local file system is read-only, unless you specifically mount a volume for such purposes
3) When Meteor is built, the bundle it runs is somewhere in .meteor/local..., so you can't really use pwd
It makes more sense to store files either in external storage (like an S3 bucket, see ostrio:files for how to do this), or to put them in your Mongo database as objects.
If you are still determined to access the files from the file system, you can specify a location in Meteor.settings, which means that you can set that up independently for each server/computer you are running on.

A: you may place your files e.g. inside the "private" directory of your application sources, like
./private/data/faq.json
To get that content you may use:
// use for file access
var fs = Npm.require('fs');

// using this meteor lib, gives secure access to folder structure
var files = Npm.require("./mini-files");

// save reference to serverDir
var serverDir = files.pathResolve(__meteor_bootstrap__.serverDir);

// Taken from meteor/tools/bundler.js#L1509
// currently the directory structure has not changed for build
var assetBundlePath = files.pathJoin(serverDir, 'assets', 'app');

// location of the private data folder
var dataPath = files.pathJoin(assetBundlePath, 'data');

after that it should be possible to load your json on server like
const jsonData = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(files.pathJoin(dataPath, 'faqQuestions'), { encoding: 'utf8' }));

I used that in a component for meteor to work with ENV config files located at Github (https://github.com/4commerce-technologies-AG/meteor-package-env-settings)
Cheers

What is Organic Vitamin C?
Organic vitamin C refers to L-ascorbic acid derived or absorbed from naturally occurring sources rather than that produced from artificial chemical synthesis. This distinction includes dietary supplements produced from natural food extracts or foods rich in vitamin C such as fruits, vegetables, meat, and milk. Chemically the ascorbic acids in synthetic and organic vitamin C are identical; the most significant difference between the two is the absence of naturally occurring co-factors. These include various bioflavonoids which aid in the absorption of the ascorbic acid. Although this appears to indicate that organic sources of vitamin C are more effective, there are also several favorable points regarding synthetic varieties that should be considered.
Adequate vitamin C intake is an essential part of a healthy, balanced diet. It is a powerful defense mechanism against oxidative stress and a important component of eight critical enzymatic reactions in the human body. A deficiency of vitamin C can lead to several serious health problems including conditions such as scurvy. Vitamin C or ascorbic acid is generally encountered in two formats. The first is organic vitamin C which is found in most fruits, vegetables, meats, milk, and organic supplements and the second being chemically synthesized in laboratories.
Organic Vitamin C is absorbed from natural foods like oranges, rather than synthetic compounds.
Particularly rich sources of natural vitamin C include Camu Camu, Kakadu plum, rose hips, black currents, and most citrus fruits. Milk and animal products such as oysters, pork liver, chicken liver, and cod roe are also rich in ascorbic acid. Although the chemical structure of natural and synthetic ascorbic acid are identical, organic vitamin C has, however, one major benefit over laboratory produced variants. These are the various co-factors which accompany vitamin C absorbed from natural sources. The most important of these are bioflavonoids which have been proven to greatly improve the bioavailability or ease of absorption of the vitamin in the body.
One of the problems with organic Vitamin C found in natural, whole foods is the fact that concentrations differ considerably even in similar sources. One orange, for instance, may contain 60 mg of vitamin C and another less than 20 mg. The region the food comes from, its freshness, when it was harvested, and how it was stored or transported all play a role in its eventual ascorbic acid content. Organic vitamin C supplements can overcome this problem to a certain extent. These products maintain many of the natural co-factors and present the vitamin in known doses, thereby making it easier to control the amount of the vitamin absorbed.
Even though organic sources of vitamin C are clearly more effective, synthetic variants should not rejected out of hand. The ascorbic acid in these supplements are extremely pure and also presented in known doses. It should be remembered that these supplements are exactly that — supplements. If used in tandem with an adequate intake of natural, organic vitamin C, a person may benefit from the bioflavonoid component and be able to precisely tailor intake.

Man, It seems like I've been gone forever…believe me I have thought about posting a blog at least once a day, but I have been so busy! Besides working, homeschooling, doing things around the house, I have been busy using my Cameo! I absolutely love it. My goal is to do a card a day. I'm trying to get better and figure out exactly what I'm doing. Testing out what glue I like best, card stock, what settings I like to cut with. There is so much thought involved! 🙂 I really enjoy it and I'm pretty sure we have been to Hobby Lobby twice in the last week. Which seems like no biggie unless you live an hour away from the closest one! Don't tell my husband, but I already want/need to go back. I have figured out that buying the cheapest card stock is not the way to go. I learned my lesson there and need to upgrade. Do you have a certain brand or weight of paper you use? Any tips are welcome. I'm going to show you a few of my latest projects. All my designs have been purchased off the Silhouette Online Store with my free gift cards I received when I bought my machine. Here's what I've been up to lately!
This is my very first card project with the Cameo. I really loved how they both turned out. I love cutting the image out and putting it all together. It's like a puzzle! I never knew how much I would love card making. I have wanted to do it for so long, but never put in the time to sit down and actually do it. The Cameo makes it so much easier and my kids love watching it cut out the images. Atticus was watching me last night and said "Mom…You really love die cutting!" It was so sweet. I just love that little boy!
Besides the cards I have made a few wood signs. I love vinyl and if my husband would let me, I'd vinyl everything in this house!!
I love making the wood signs and they make such great gifts for people. Jeremy's Aunt and Uncle are coming to visit us next weekend and they just moved into a new house, so I wanted to make them something as a little house-warming gift. I think they will love the bird design with their last name. I know I would! This was my favorite project of the week.
I hope you guys enjoy my pictures. As I type this blog all I can think about is making more stuff! Please comment below if you guys have card stock tips. I would love the comments and help! I will try my hardest to break away and blog more. See you all soon!!
Hello everyone! Atticus received the coolest little cupcake maker for Christmas this year and I wanted to share it with you. I had never heard of this thing before. It may not be the newest thing, so you all may think "hello. this is old news!" But it is so cool!! It's called The Original babycakes nonstick coated cupcake maker.
Atticus loves to help in the kitchen and wants to be a chef when he grows up, so he was thrilled to get this super cool present. I will admit…I was a little skeptical. When he opened it I thought "Well this is cool…but will it work." I like cupcakes just like everyone else does, but a cupcake made in 5 minutes?! I just didn't know about that. I was excited to try it out and see if this bad boy worked and I'm here to tell you….THIS THING IS AMAZING! I seriously love it!! Atticus and I made cupcakes in literally 5 minutes and I never thought that was possible.
This is everything that came in the box. The inside of the cupcake maker is nonstick and so easy to wipe clean. Lets get started!
Step One: Plug in the cupcake maker, so it can warm up.
Step Two: While the cupcake maker is warming, you mix up your cake batter, brownie mix, or whatever you are going to bake in it.
Step Four: Once your batter is in, you just put the top down and set the timer for 5 to 6 minutes. I like 5 minutes, 6 was a little to done and 5 was just perfect for my liking.
Step Five: Carefully take out your cupcakes. I used the little fork device that came in the box. They popped out very easy.
Step Six: Cool, put on your favorite icing, and eat!!
It was so simple and I swear the clean up couldn't get any easier. I'm not sure that I actually cleaned anything beside what I used to make the cake batter and the spoon to fill the cupcake liners. The taste was great…moist…perfectly cooked…and so fast! I can not wait to make these again for a party or get together.
It does say on the box it makes mini cupcakes, but I was surprised at how big the mini cupcakes were. They are a perfect size and I wouldn't really call them mini at all.
If you've seen the babycakes cupcake maker and was skeptical of it, try it out!! It's worth it! I'm not sure how much they are since it was a gift, but it does work really well and will save you some time. It is perfect for when you want a sweet treat, but don't want a full mess in the kitchen and you want it fast! I was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked and I see us using this over and over again.
I better go…I have some cupcakes to eat!!!

Myanmar junta's top diplomat in talks with Thailand, Indonesia
File Photo Myanmar junta's top diplomat in talks with Thailand, Indonesia
The Myanmar junta's foreign minister visited Thailand on Wednesday as regional powers tried to broker an end to three weeks of deadly unrest triggered by a military coup.
The talks came as an anti-coup protester died in detention, a local rescue organisation said. Four others have been killed in the crackdown.
Foreign minister Wunna Maung Lwin held talks with his counterparts from Thailand and Indonesia in what was the first known face-to-face meetings between a senior junta member and foreign government officials.
The military has weathered a storm of international condemnation for ousting civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi from power in a Feb 1 putsch, while dissent within its borders has been vociferous with daily nationwide protests.
Indonesian Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi said she expressed concerns about the safety and welfare of Myanmar citizens and reiterated a need for an "inclusive democratic transition process".
"We ask all parties to exercise restraint and not use violence to avoid casualties and bloodshed," she told reporters in Jakarta.
Marsudi has been on a "shuttle diplomacy" mission over the past two weeks discussing the Myanmar crisis during visits to Brunei and Singapore as well as phone calls with other Southeast Asian counterparts.
She had hoped to travel to Naypyidaw after her visit to Bangkok to directly convey messages from Indonesia and other countries but confirmed the visit had to be postponed.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Indonesian embassy in Myanmar's commercial hub Yangon saw hundreds of protesters gather for the second consecutive day.
Angered that Jakarta was talking with the junta government — officially named the State Administration Council — demonstrators carried signs reading: "Stop negotiating with them" and "Indonesia, don't support dictator".
"The Military's State Administration Council is not our legitimate government," said participant Seinn Lae Maung, who had a Myanmar flag painted on her face.
"Please respect our votes and do hear our voices." Marsudi later hit back at the criticism, warning: "To do nothing is not an option." Since the Feb 1 coup, Myanmar has seen a torrent of anger and defiance from hundreds of thousands of protesters nationwide demanding the release of Suu Kyi.
The military has justified its actions by alleging widespread electoral fraud in November's elections, which Suu Kyi's party had won in a landslide.
Since taking power, the junta has ordered nightly internet blackouts and arrested hundreds of anti-coup protesters, while security forces have steadily stepped up enforcement tactics to quell demonstrations.
They have deployed tear gas, water cannon and rubber bullets against protesters, as well as isolated incidents of live rounds.
The post-coup death toll rose on Wednesday as a 20-year-old man who was arrested and sustained a leg injury at a protest last weekend in Mandalay, Myanmar's second largest city, died.
"(His mother) ran to me, crying and hugging me, saying her son had died," said Khin Maung Tint from Mandalay Rescue.
That followed the deaths of three other protesters, including 17-year-old Wai Yan Tun, who was shot in the head Saturday after security forces opened fire during a Mandalay protest.

Ziwa Rhino and Wildlife Ranch is home to 22 southern white rhinos. This tranquil place is a popular destination for rhino trekking, bird watching and nature walks. The Sanctuary is very special because it's the only place in Uganda where you will be able to see the rhinos in their natural environment.
Set up in 2005 the Sanctuary aimed to reintroduce the southern white rhino, which had been depleted due to conflict and poaching. Thanks to the dedication and hard work of the conservation team, the rhinos are flourishing. Numbers have risen from 6 to 22 in 13 years and the Sanctuary is becoming increasingly popular with tourists. As well as rhino tracking, the Sanctuary offers birding and nature walks. Expert guides help you to get the most out of your visit.
Animals: rhino, Uganda kob, reedbuck, oribi, hippo and crocodile.
Birds: African darter, African Hawk Eagle, Common Kestrel, African Green Pigeon, Tawny Eagle, Tree Pipit, Common Chat and Shoebill.


"…eh Gasgano doowa newpa Ord Pedrovia!"
The Ord Pedrovia was a model of Podracer. The Xexto pilot Gasgano flew a green one during a Boonta Eve Classic race that took place during the Invasion of Naboo. Gasgano's cockpit had a camera built into the back of it, which connected to a holoscreen on the cockpits control panel, which allowed to the Xexto to keep an eye on any competitors who wished to pass him. During the Boonta, Gasgano used this feature to his advantage when dueling the Human pilot Anakin Skywalker, blocking all of the Human's attempts to pass. Skywalker finally overcame Gasgano when he flew over the Ord Pedrovia following a cliff drop.
During the Clone Wars, an Ishi Tib flew an Ord Pedrovia of his own during a race that was broadcast in bar located on the planet Coruscant, called 79's.
The Ord Pedrovia first appeared in the 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace. Certain technical aspects of the Podracer were fleshed out in various sources that are now considered to be a part of the Star Wars Legends continuity, and no longer a part of proper canon.

Fatality Risks in Horse Racing
A British study of racehorse injuries and deaths showed that more experienced jockeys and trainers were associated with lower risks for the common adverse events in racing.
The incidence of fatalities in Great Britain from 2000-2013 was 0.9 per 1,000 starts (233 horses); of distal limb fractures was 0.95 per 1,000 starts (245 horses); and of epistaxis was 1.59 per 1,000 starts (410 horses).
Welfare efforts have focused on the racing industry with state racing boards, the American Association of Equine Practitioners, and the British Horseracing Authority stepping up to improve conditions and reduce casualties.
Racing data is collected in Great Britain for every race each day. Researchers in Britain retrospectively looked at incidents occurring between 2000-2013 in an effort to identify specific risk factors involved in fatalities, distal limb fractures, and exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (epistaxis or EIPH) in flat racing Thoroughbreds over all-weather surfaces [Rosanowski, S.M.; Chang, Y.M.; et al. Risk factors for race-day fatality, distal limb fracture and epistaxis in Thoroughbreds racing on all-weather surfaces in Great Britain (2000 to 2013) Preventive Veterinary Medicine 148 (2017) 58–65].
A previous study looked at fatality risk based on track surface. From 2009-2013, horses racing over a dirt surface were at highest risk of fatality compared to horses running on turf or an all-weather surface.
The review revealed that older horses or those horses started in racing at an older age were "at higher risk of an adverse outcome." This correlates with previous studies that stipulate that fatal musculoskeletal injury risk is higher in horses four years old or older and in those that begin a race career as a three or four-year old rather than the typical start time of two years of age.
In general, faster speed correlated with a higher incidence of epistaxis, but not fatality. Longer distances increased fatality risk, but not epistaxis. While epistaxis correlated to the type of all-weather surface the horses ran on, the surface type was not associated with fatality or distal limb fractures. More experienced jockeys and trainers are associated with lower risks for the common adverse events in racing.
British Study On Adverse Events In Racehorses
Research on Race-Day Distal Limb Fractures in Horses
In addition to previously identified risk factors such as firm ground and race distance, trainer performance is also a risk factor for distal limb fracture in British flat racing thoroughbreds.
Survey Reveals Equine Flu Vaccination Practices Risk Suboptimal Immunity
In the United Kingdom, a survey showed that non-compliance with the manufacturers' datasheet guidelines is common, risking suboptimal immunity to equine influenza.
Fatal Equine Intestinal Lesions
Bacterial infection with Clostridium spp. or Salmonella spp. were the predominant findings where a diagnosis was obtained in this review study.
Risk Factors for Equine Recurrent Uveitis in Appaloosas
It is important for Appaloosa horses to have frequent ophthalmic exams, particularly after 12 years of age.
Horse Hoof Temperature and Laminitis
To improve early detection of laminitis for at-risk individuals, it is recommended to perform twice-daily measures of surface hoof temperature and digital pulses.
Abdominal Wire Foreign Bodies in Horses
A retrospective study showed an overall case fatality rate of 75%; for those treated successfully with surgery and medical intervention, the long-term survival rate was excellent.
Effect of Pace on Completion of Endurance Racing
Riders who adopted a more consistent pacing strategy were less likely to be eliminated for metabolic or lameness-related problems
Equine Gastrointestinal Research Updates
GI issues are the second-leading cause of death in the horse.
Foal-Level Risk Factors Associated with R. equi Pneumonia
The purpose of this study was to identify foal-level risk factors associated with the development of R. equi pneumonia at a large breeding farm with a recurrent problem of R. equi pneumonia.

Did Sheldon Silver Help A Notorious Slumlord Because His Rabbi Asked Him To?
The small law firm that made significant financial payments to Modern Orthodox New York State Assembly Speaker Sheldon "Shelly" Silver – payments which Silver reportedly failed to disclose and which are the focus of an ongoing FBI and US Attorney's Office investigation – has a client who is a wealthy slumlord who is also tied to Silver, and Silver tried to help that slumlord save money on taxes, allegedly because his rabbi asked him to.
Above: Sheldon Silver
The small law firm that made significant financial payments to New York State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver – payments which Silver reportedly failed to disclose and which are the focus of an ongoing FBI and US Attorney's Office investigation – has a client who is a wealthy slumlord and who is also tied to Silver, the New York Times reported.
That landlord, Baruch Singer, is like Silver an Orthodox Jew. Singer's father Yitzchok was the rabbi at the Lower East Side Orthodox synagogue Silver and his close friend, the now-convicted embezzler William E. Rapfogel, who stole millions from the Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty, have prayed at for decades.
Singer, whose buildings have amassed thousands of violations over the years and who is a notorious slumlord, is reportedly not currently under federal investigation.
"I happen to be — thank God — one of the best landlords in the city of New York," Singer told the Times this with week.
Nonetheless, the Times has found at least one instance in which Silver tried to have a special bill passed to benefit Singer – something Silver says happened because Singer's father the rabbi asked him to – and other instances of Silver taking political actions that were meant to benefit large landlords.

Does any of the junior suites on RCL have an iron or iron board in the room or at least have one to use?
I don't believe any line allows an iron in a cabin, whether in a suite or not.
Some ships do have irons available in the laundromat areas, but I do not think that RCL is among those.
They do offer pressing services, (as well as dry cleaning and laundry) though, for a price.
No. Lines don't allow irons in room no matter what class.
Irons are verboten as are most heat sources as fire is a very major concern when you are out at sea.


Cambridge Audio 700 Series review | What Hi-Fi?
Cambridge Audio is a manufacturer you probably associate more with hi-fi separates than HDMI cables, but the British company has recently added some new cables to its product line-up.
The 700 Series sports an eye-catching purple polythene jacket and shiny, solid connectors. As far as picture quality is concerned, the cable allows for a reasonable amount of detail, and edge definition is decent enough for the money.
However, this can be bettered by price-comparable alternatives such as Chord Company's SuperShield.
Sonically, the cable sounds subdued and far too laid back. The narrator's dialogue during the opening chapter of the Blu-ray of Moon doesn't have any real impact and neither does the accompanying soundtrack.
Rivals at this price can provide greater dynamic clout.

Google Says It Will Not File Motion To Dismiss U.S. Lawsuit
Alphabet's Google said on Friday it would not file a motion to dismiss a U.S. government lawsuit filed last month but would fight it in federal court.
WASHINGTON: Alphabet's Google said on Friday it would not file a motion to dismiss a U.S. government lawsuit filed last month but would fight it in federal court.
The U.S. Justice Department sued the $1 trillion (£760 billion) search and advertising giant in October, accusing it of illegally using its market muscle to hobble rivals in the biggest challenge to the power and influence of Big Tech in decades.
The two sides said in a short court filing on Friday that Google would refrain from filing a motion to dismiss the lawsuit. It said it would file an answer to the government's complaint before December 21.
The two sides also said they had failed to reach an agreement on how to protect confidential information that was given to the government by third parties. They said that they would file statements on their positions by Nov. 13.


. . . . . . he conveyed grain from Egypt . . . . . . cheaper [freight charges?] . . . . . . preferring [to gratify?] (5) the Athenian People, and in [all] the other [affairs of the city] has continued to make himself useful at every opportunity, and having ransomed many citizens from Sicily, he despatched them to Athens at his own (10) expense, and displaying individually and collectively towards the People the good will, which he has inherited from his ancestors, has now [donated a talent] of silver for public protection (phulakēn), for good fortune, the People shall decide: to praise Ph-ios (15) son of - of Salamis and crown him with a [foliage] crown for his good will . . . . . .
 The context is obscure. See D. Whitehead, in C. Cooper ed., Epigraphy and the Greek Historian (2008), 57-67.  Perhaps relates to a public subscription which took place in a period of anxiety about the grain supply following Athens' defeat at the battle of Chaironeia in 338 BC (Lykourgos 1.18, 42 etc., Din. 1.80, Dem. 18.171, 248; [Plut.] Lives of the Ten Orators 851A-B). In that case this was the earliest in the series of decrees honouring grain traders in the period between Chaironeia and the Lamian War. Cf. IG II3 1, 367 (for another trader from Cypriot Salamis) n. 10. On this genre of decree across the period 415-307 BC see D. T. Engen, Honor and Profit (2010). For a much later example, IG II3 1, 1315.

3 cheese and bacon stuffed jalapeno peppers are the perfect snacking food for tailgating this football season. Easy to make, these appetizers are ready in under 30 minutes so you won't miss a second of the game.
We are now officially in my favorite season of the year – football season! While I am actually huge football fan, I'm also a huge fan of tailgating and football food. Bring on the chili, the brats, the queso dip … and the heartburn! I love stuffed jalapeno peppers, and this recipe will become one of your favorites.
The ingredient list for these jalapeno poppers is pretty simple – jalapenos, goat cheese, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, and bacon. Seriously you just can't go wrong with any of those and put together, they are amazing.
Start by cutting the jalapenos in half lengthwise. The real heat of the jalapenos is in the ribs and the seeds. I removed both because my husband doesn't like his poppers to spicy. But if you want to add real heat, leave part of the ribs and the seeds in the peppers. Once all the peppers are sliced, set them aside to make the filling.
This filling is a little different from the usual cream cheese filling found in jalapeno poppers, but it's absolutely delicious. Mix together the three cheeses with crumbled bacon. You can season with salt and pepper, you like, but I didn't add any.
Use a spoon to stuff the cheese filling in to the peppers. It doesn't take much and the filling goes a very long way. I had about 10 peppers to fill and had a lot of the cheese filling leftover. This recipe will make plenty for a crowd.
Sprinkle more Parmesan on top of the stuffed peppers and then bake or broil. Baking them will allow the peppers to soften and cook more. I like to bake first and then put the peppers under the broiler to brown up the cheese. But if you are in a hurry, you can just throw them under the broiler and they are just as delicious.
I love spicy food, but I don't love the heartburn that comes afterward. When I was pregnant with my son, my doctor recommended Nexium® 24HR for the frequent heartburn I was experiencing in the 3rd trimester. Nexium® 24HR is also great for Game Day heartburn! Nexium® 24HR is#1 Choice of Doctors and Pharmacists for their own frequent heartburn (*Among PCPs and Pharmacists who use a branded OTC PPI) and you only need to take 1 pill a day. That makes it really easy to eat spicy food and keep heartburn under control.
While you're at Walmart picking up the ingredients for these peppers, you can find the 42 count Nexium® 24HR in tablet form in the personal care aisles.
When the cheese is browned, the jalapeno poppers are read to eat! They are best when served warm. Sprinkle more crumbled bacon on top before serving, if desired.
*Use as directed. *May take 1-4 days for full effect.
Cut each pepper in half lengthwise leaving the stem intact.
Remove seeds and membranes from each pepper half and discard. Set Aside.
In a small bowl combine goat cheese, ricotta and bacon.
Use a small spoon to fill each jalapeno pepper half with the cheese mixture.
Place the filled peppers on a baking sheet and top with Parmesan.
Bake the peppers for 10 minutes in the 450 degree oven. Switch to a broiler set on high and finish browning under the broiler for another 5 minutes.

Verizon and Microsoft Partner to Bring 5G Edge Computing to Azure Stack Edge
Apr 29, 2022 5G, 5g frequency bands usa, verizon 5g bands 2022, verizon 5g frequency bands, what is the frequency range of c-band/mid-band of 5g uw
Verizon and Microsoft are partnering to bring 5G edge computing to Azure Stack Edge, the companies announced on August 23, 2018. Through this partnership, Verizon will use Microsoft Azure Stack software-defined networking (SDN) capabilities and Intel's Atom C3000 processors to deliver 5G networks and edge cloud computing with 5G access points at Verizon retail stores in the U.S.
Edge computing is a network architecture that brings data storage and computation closer to the devices and sensors that generate and use it. This can be done by putting data centers in locations that are physically closer to users, or by using mobile edge computing (MEC) to process data on devices themselves. MEC uses technologies like smartphones, tablets, laptops, and smartwatches as mini-computers to perform cloud-like operations locally. In this way MEC can keep latency low for end users by reducing the need for networks to transport large amounts of data back and forth between servers in data centers.
Why is Edge Computing Important?
Edge computing is important because it brings the power of the cloud closer to the devices that need it. This can reduce latency, save bandwidth, and improve performance. By bringing edge computing to Azure Stack Edge, Verizon and Microsoft are making it easier for businesses to take advantage of these benefits. Furthermore, this partnership will enable Verizon to offer a new class of service that would otherwise be unavailable with its current infrastructure capabilities.
With this partnership, Verizon hopes to create a new generation of services through innovative approaches like IoT management and data analytics at the edge while also lowering costs by leveraging its existing infrastructure.
Edge computing will also help address some problems with artificial intelligence (AI) such as identifying fake videos by not relying on powerful servers in remote locations but rather using computations close to where AI needs them most.
How Does Edge Data Storage Work?
The goal of edge data storage is to bring data closer to where it is being used or processed, in order to reduce latency and improve performance. Edge data storage can be deployed on-premises, at the edge of the network, or in the cloud.
What Can This Do For Me?
The partnership between Verizon and Microsoft will bring 5G edge computing capabilities to Azure Stack Edge, allowing for faster processing of data at the edge of the network. This will enable new applications and services that require low latency and high throughput, such as gaming, augmented reality, and live video streaming. Additionally, this will allow for more efficient use of resources as data can be processed closer to where it is being generated.
If you're a Verizon customer, you can get started with 5G edge computing on Azure Stack Edge today. Just sign up for a free account and download the necessary software.
Getting Started with MS Cloud OS at the Edge
As the world increasingly moves toward a more connected future, the need for powerful and reliable edge computing solutions will only continue to grow. That's why Verizon is teaming up with Microsoft to bring 5G edge computing capabilities to Azure Stack Edge. With this partnership, businesses will be able to take advantage of the speed and power of 5G networks to run their most demanding workloads right at the edge of the network.
Getting Started with Azure Stack's Cloud Manager
Azure Stack's Cloud Manager is a free, open source tool that makes it easy to deploy and manage your Azure Stack infrastructure. It provides a unified experience for managing all your Azure resources, including those in the cloud. To get started with Cloud Manager, visit the Azure Stack team blog for more information on how to download and install the Cloud Manager Tools from GitHub, how to deploy an Azure Stack solution using Cloud Manager, and how to upgrade from one release of Azure Stack to another using Cloud Manager.
