Blog - History In Your Hands!
Coins are often described as "history in your hands." When it comes to today's offer, we couldn't agree more.
Here at Monument Metals, we handle a tremendous amount of 90% silver coins. The vast majority of the material we get in is dated between 1940-1964. However, on rare occasion, we end up with coins from the late 19th and early 20th century. These older 90% coins stand out due to their distinctive design.
From 1892-1916, the U.S. Mint used a motif called the "Barber" design on Dimes, Quarters, and Half Dollars. The design is named after its creator, Charles E. Barber, who served as the U.S. Mint Chief Engraver from 1879 through 1917.
Low Premium: These coins will exhibit heavy wear, cleaning, scratches, discoloration, or a combination of the above. Since Barber coins are over a century old (!) and were likely exposed to decades of heavy use, they are frequently seen in this condition. Low Premium Barber coins are the most affordable option.
Average Circulated: These coins will show extensive wear but will have smooth, problem-free surfaces and much of the original rim intact. You'll find them to have a very pleasing appearance and solid eye appeal. Many dealers throw Low Premium coins into their Average Circulated category, but we reserve the latter grade for nice coins with "honest" wear.
Regardless of which grade you pick, we can't emphasize enough how rare these are. Less than 1% of all 90% silver coins we see are of this Barber design; they simply do not exist in quantity!
Today, we're making an extremely limited quantity of Barber 50c available for purchase at low wholesale rates. Not only are our prices the best of any major dealer for Barber coinage, but you'll appreciate our careful grading too.
Whether you're a 90% silver specialist – or simply want to add some historic coins to your holdings – we encourage you to pounce on this Barber coinage sale. Quantities are extremely limited and we may not have enough to go around!


As with all industries nowadays, technology marches on when it comes to the utility of glass in your home. Triple glazing is becoming more common-place, as is Alu-clad, a product which allows for greater longevity and reduced maintenance. Energy retention is increasing all the time in concert with the worlds increasing need for sustainability; making passive homes within reach for more and more people. However, as is also the case with other industries, as possibilities increase, so do customer expectations, and we are finding more and more clients seeking to maximize their views, and indeed the light in their home by installing oversize glazing. But what are the limits of today's products? Whether it's a fixed pane, a sash slider, or a sliding door, just how big can it be? We turned to Walter Power at Zyle Fenster Ireland to find out.


It's understandable that sometimes appointments have to be cancelled but, in the interests of other clients, and fairness to myself, I respectfully ask that you give at least 24 HOURS NOTICE. Same day or late cancellation may incur a charge.
Please note: Payment can be taken by credit card, after firstly contacting me to arrange an appointment, please use the button at the bottom of the page.
Please allow 1 hour in total for any of the above.
Your first session also includes a initial consultation to assess past and present health and lifestyle issues.
Please note that these sessions are usually for 1 hour but may last a little longer depending on the issues we are working with.
I also teach self-hypnosis and other techniques and I may ask you to practice these at home between sessions.
Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri: 9.30 am - 4.30 pm . Evening appointments from 6.00pm Stannington only.

A kolozsvári Apáczai Csere János Elméleti Líceum az 1919-ben alapított Felső Református Leánygimnázium utódintézménye, a Király utcában (Str. I.C.Brătianu) található, közel a Farkas utcai református templomhoz, a lelkészlakás egykori telkén  épült.

Története
Az Erdélyi református egyházkerület közgyűlése 1899 novemberében úgy határozott, hogy kétszáz tanuló számára református leányiskolát és száz tanuló számára leányinternátust hoz létre. Mivel a szükséges anyagi források lassan gyűltek össze, 1913-ban a református kollégium igazgatótanácsa engedélyezte, hogy a következő tanévtől lányok is tanulhassanak a fiúgimnáziumban. 1914-ben az egyház újabb határozatot hozott, hogy a reformáció 400 éves ünnepére, azaz 1917-re felsőbb leánynevelő intézetet létesít, a következő részekkel: gimnázium, tanítóképző, elemi iskola, diakonissza-képző, internátus egyetemi hallgatónők részére, szanatórium, keresztyén szálloda, kertészeti és háztartási iskola, árvaház.

1917 tavaszán erre a célra a Magyar utca és a Zsidótemplom (Papp, jelenleg Paris) utca sarkán vásároltak telket, de ezt a román kormány elvette az egyháztól. Így az intézet megnyitását el kellett halasztani, de a tanítóképzőt már abban az évben létrehozták Nagyenyeden. A kolozsvári intézte csak 1919. október 1-jén tudta elkezdeni működését. Az 1919/1920-as tanévre 324 tanuló iratkozott be, közülük 122 volt református, 8 evangélikus, 8 unitárius, 8 római katolikus, 2 görögkatolikus és 74 izraelita; az izraelitákat magántanulóként vették fel. A következő évben már több mint ötszáz tanuló iratkozott be. Mivel a közoktatási hatóság csak két tanévre adta meg a gimnáziumnak a nyilvánossági jogot, az 1922/1923-as tanévtől kezdve az iskola növendékeinek évente vizsgát kellett tenniük egy állami bizottság előtt; az intézkedés miatt a diáklétszám háromszáz alá csökkent. Az intézet 1928. április 28-án a Nevelésügyi Minisztérium Magán-, Kisebbségi és Felekezeti Igazgatóságának 161. számú jogosítványával visszanyerte nyilvánossági jogát.

Első években a református fiúgimnázium épületében folyt az oktatás, majd 1926-1927-ben a gimnázium saját épületet kapott. Az épületet Moll Elemér tervezte, Viola Kornél mérnök-vállalkozó kivitelezte, és 1927. január 8-án Makkai Sándor püspök avatta fel. A 400 négyzetméternyi beépített területen tizenkét tanterem, két szertár, egy tanári és egy igazgatói szoba, egy konyha, és mellékhelyiségek kaptak helyet. A szükséges bútorok a megszüntetett szászvárosi református kollégiumból kerültek át, de padokat adott a székelyudvarhelyi kollégium is. 1928/29-ben az épületet új szárnnyal bővítették.

1948-ban az egyházi iskolák államosítását követően az intézmény 3. számú Leánylíceum néven működött. 1955-től bevezették a koedukációs oktatást. 1977-ben megszűnt a középfokú képzés és az iskola általános iskolaként működött. 1990-ben az iskola visszaszerezte középiskolai rangját, 1991-től tanítóképzés is folyik itt. 1993 szeptemberétől felvette Apáczai Csere János nevét.

I'm not sure if Ocean's story has ever been told here on ye old blog, but on Friday night, it came to an end. It's the kind of story that when looking back on a long lifetime, one might gloss over, or even forget about. But this blog is my best attempt at an autobiography, so here goes.
Ocean joined our family on April 10, 2010, after the wedding of Marc's cousin David to Torrie. The wedding was just a few days after I had back surgery, so I wasn't able to attend, but the rest of the family went without me. On the way home, I got a phone call telling me that Hannah had won a fish - in a lovely decorative vase that had served as the centerpiece on the tables at the wedding. The game was rigged, as seats had been assigned in advance, and Hannah couldn't be more excited about her first family pet.
After about a month of Ocean swimming around in the vase, Marc finally looked up details on this fish. He hadn't died yet, as we had expected, and it turns out that betta fish can live an average of two to three years. We decided it was time to upgrade his surroundings, and that was when we purchased the tank above. For a family pet, you can't get much more low maintenance than a betta fish - just a few drops of food twice a day, and, well, Ocean was happy as a fish.
Ocean had some close calls over his two year life. When we had been in Paris, we bought a long-lasting type of fish food, which he apparently hated and he nearly starved during that long week we were away. But we were redeemed the following summer when he spent our week in California staying with our neighbors, and even getting a chance to be on Skype with some of their extended family members, as his four year old caretaker was so excited to show him off. A few months ago, I was convinced that Ocean had already died, but Marc was out that evening. I had the kids come downstairs to see him, and after an extended period of time with no movement, he finally began to swim again. Ocean had slowed down substantially these last few months, and on Friday night as Hannah went to feed him right before our Shabbat dinner, we discovered that he was no longer with us.
Hannah and Marc buried Ocean in the backyard this morning. Max cried, but Hannah has taken it in stride. She hugged Max and told him to think about the "Circle of Life" from "The Lion King." It's the first time Max has had to deal with an actual death.
Ocean didn't really add much to our family life. With such simple needs, he was often forgotten about by the family, and I had to tell Hannah to feed him twice a day. Max even used to be scared of him. But for over two years, he was here and a part of our lives. I won't ever pass that corner of the dining room without thinking of him. Rest in peace, little fishy.
You Just Have to Miss It.

Meloidogyne luci Carneiro et al
Meloidogyne luci (Carneiro et al.)
Meloidogyne luci
Describer:
Carneiro et al.
Tropical root-knot nematode
First report of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne luci associated with potato
Significance: The nematode Meloidogyne luci is associated with economically important plants, including Glycine max (soybean) (Bellé et al., 2016), Cucumis sativus (cucumber), Vitis vinifera (grape), Phaseolus vulgaris (bean), Rosa sp. (rose), Lactuca sativa (lettuce), Abelmoschus esculentus (okra), and Actinidia deliciosa (kiwi) (Carneiro et al., 2014).
Meloidogyne luci has been reported from Brazil, Chile, Iran (Carneiro et al., 2014), Portugal (Maleita et al., 2017), Guatemala, and Slovenia (Janssen et al., 2016). Recent phylogenetic analyses suggest that Meloidogyne ethiopica populations in Europe and Turkey should be reclassified as M. luci (Stare et al., 2017). It is not known to occur in the United States, Mexico, or Canada.
Issues of Concern: In a 2013 survey, Meloidogyne luci was isolated from cultivated Solanum tuberosum (potato) roots in Portugal. Pathogenicity tests confirmed that M. luci causes root galls on S. tuberosum. This is the first report of M. luci associated with S. tuberosum (Maleita et al., 2017).

Here at Sunset Ridge Ranch, we have purebred Caspian Horses, trained "naturally", with Parelli Natural Horsemanship methods. Sunset Ridge Ranch is located in the mountains of the San Francisco Peninsula.
The Caspian Horse truly is unique, with a fascinating history going back 5000 years. They are the oldest equine breed still in existence apart from the Asiatic Wild Horse.
Although small (10-12 hands), the Caspian is a horse in every respect. They are most likely the ancestor of the modern day Arabian Horse. And, like their Arabian cousins, they are very athletic, making a great children's show jumper and carriage horse.
The Caspian Horse is one of the rarest breeds of horses in the world, dating back to 3000 B.C. In fact, the Caspian is the oldest domestic breed in existence. Pictures of these magnificent little horses can be seen on reliefs at the ancient palace of King Darius the Great at Persepolis, pulling chariots, fighting lions.
The Caspian was thought to be extinct until 1965, when American Louise Firouz found the stallion Ostad in an area around the Caspian Sea in Iran. She later discovered a few more and started a breeding program.


It was with much sadness that I heard, a few weeks ago, the news that Donna Summer had passed away.
It is with much fondness that I recall when her great hits of the late 70s were on the radio when I was in college.
The link below is to a music video with Donna that is a fitting tribute to a great singer, great artist, and great woman.
Donna, we all miss you and love you still!


Also in 2018 Latvia ranked the 40th most competitive country in the world compared, and is still showing the lowest score among its Baltic neighbors, according to the annual World Competitiveness Ranking developed by the International Institute for Management Development (IMD) World Competitiveness Center in Switzerland, informs LETA.
Lithuania in the index has ranked 32nd, up one position from last year, while Estonia ranked 31st, down one position.
Among the 63 world's countries ranked by the IMD, the most competitive countries are the US, Hong Kong, Singapore. The top ten countries also include the Netherlands, Switzerland, Denmark, the United Arab Emirates, Norway, Sweden and Canada.
Among the least competitive EU members, there is Greece (57th position) and Croatia (61st position), while the least competitive countries in the world are Ukraine, Brazil, Mongolia and Venezuela.
Every year, the IMD World Competitiveness Center publishes its ranking of the competitiveness of countries. In the IMD World Competitiveness Yearbook 2017, the results for 63 countries are included. The World Competitive Ranking has been published since 1989, assessing each country's macroeconomic indicators, efficiency of the government and business operations, education, development of technologies and health care services.
Latvia has been included in the survey since 2013, when it ranked in the 41st position.
The top five most competitive economies in the world remain the same as in the previous year, but their order changes. The United States returns to the first spot, followed by Hong Kong, Singapore, the Netherlands and Switzerland. The Netherlands moves one place to 4th, swapping with Switzerland which moves down to 5th.
The remaining places in the top 10 are occupied largely by Nordic countries: Denmark, Norway and Sweden rank 6th, 8th and 9th respectively.


Vice President Leni Robredo welcomed on Wednesday President Rodrigo Duterte's "definitive" statement that he would neither declare revolutionary government nor impose martial law.
"The latest statement of the President clearly and definitively saying that he will not declare a revolutionary government nor impose martial law, is an important, and welcome, step towards allaying the fears of many Filipinos that a return to the chaos and uncertainty of a dictatorial regime may be imminent," Robredo said in a statement.
"It is our hope that this declaration will put an end to the dangerous and alarming proposals made in both traditional and social media the past month to set aside the certainty and security of our Constitution and laws in favor of dictatorial rule by way of either 'revolutionary government' or martial law," she added.
Robredo said the Constitution, as a "covenant" between the people and the government, guarantees that public officials could always be held accountable and that they would not abuse their power.
"We serve to protect the people and our country, to preserve the republic. Do not believe in coups, revolutionary [government], coups," Duterte said during his visit to wounded soldiers at the Army General Hospital in Fort Bonifacio.


Speaking on Thursday during a Public Hearing organised by Senate Committee on Establishment and Public Service chaired by Sen. Emmanuel Paulker.
The hearing was on four bills, namely Chartered Institute of Forensic and Investigative Auditors in Nigeria; Chartered Institute of Finance and Control in Nigeria.
Others are Chartered Institute of Forensic Accountants of Nigeria; and the Institute of Mediators and Conciliators Bill.
According to Enape, if the bill for Chartered Institute of Forensic Accountants of Nigeria is passed "it will help Nigeria to have skilled professionals to deepen fraud prevention, detection and preserve money in government treasury for infrastructural development that is fast disappearing in our country today".
She stressed that the CIFIA was not in conflict with any other established institution or body stressing that the role of the institute was clear cut.
"CIFIA should not be seen as a rival to ICAN, just as CIFIA is not seen as a rival to ANAN.
"Nothing stops an accountant from becoming a member of ICAN and CIFIA or any other professional body for that matter", she said.
Enape further noted that the accounting profession had many branches with different responsibilities and professional bodies regulating their activities.
"Auditing has no professional body regulating it, this gave the opportunity for financial accountants to claim autonomy, and as a matter of fact leads to their inability to control and prevent fraud, corruption and other financial crimes'', she said.
She therefore posited that the CIFIA if passed would monitor the serve as a check to the financial statements prepared by accountants and also help the federal government fight fraud and other financial crimes in its agencies.
On his part, representative of the Institute of Forensic Accountants of Nigeria, Prof. Usman Awheela commended the senate for the proposed bills.
Awheela said their members had not been allowed to practice forensic accounting since there was no backing law.
He explained that forensic accounting "is the unique blend of education and experience in applying accounting, auditing skills and investigative techniques to uncover truth, form legal opinions in order to assist in litigation support.
"Forensic accounting professionals provide assistance on cases which are primarily related to calculation and estimation of economic damages and related issues that includes white-collar crimes.
However, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN), kicked against the proposed bills, saying "their functions and responsibilities were already contained in the 1965 Act that established the Institute and would therefore amount to needless duplication of functions''.
ICAN President, Mr Ismaila Zakari said that the Institute had in 2009 established seven Faculties to provide training for members in their areas of specialisation.
Zakari added that the institute also provided specialist certification courses and issue certificates to qualified members as evidence of expertise and authority to practice their specialised skills.
"The Forensic accounting curriculum is carefully drawn to ensure that, to be a forensic accountant, one must necessarily be a qualified chartered accountant, be certain of technical competence and preserved professional integrity''.
Meanwhile, the Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun said the relevance of forensic accounting globally could not be over-stressed, noting that many countries across the world, including Nigeria had suffered from fraudulent practices.
The minister, represented by Director of Home Finance in the ministry, Mrs. Olubunmi Siyanbola, chronicled federal government's efforts in detecting and preventing fraud, including Presidential Initiative on Continuous Audit, Efficiency Unit and Whistle blowing programme.
She, however, emphasised the need for Senate to "exercise caution such that the essence of professionalism was not destroyed in the course of creating new bodies.
Chairman of the Committee, Sen. Emmanuel Paulker said the passage of the bill on Chartered Institute of Forensic and Investigative Auditors in Nigeria would promote high ethical standards among members.
"This is in a bid to stamp out cases of compromised auditing in the country," he said.

When Saint Ambrose Humbled Emperor Theodosius the Great
By Theodoret (c. 393-466),
Ecclesiastical History, 5.17-18
Thessalonica is a large and populous city, in the province of Macedonia. In consequence of sedition there, the anger of the Emperor [Theodosius] rose to the highest pitch, and he gratified his vindictive desire for vengeance by unsheathing the sword most unjustly and tyrannically against all, slaying the innocent and guilty alike. It is said seven thousand perished without any forms of law, and without even having judicial sentence passed upon them; but that, like ears of wheat in the time of harvest, they were alike cut down.
When Ambrose heard of this deplorable catastrophe, he went out to meet the Emperor, who---on his return to Milan---desired as usual to enter the holy church, but Ambrose prohibited his entrance, saying: "You do not reflect, it seems, O Emperor, on the guilt you have incurred by that great massacre; but now that your fury is appeased, do you not perceive the enormity of your crime? You must not be dazzled by the splendor of the purple you wear, and be led to forget the weakness of the body which it clothes. Your subjects, O Emperor, are of the same nature as yourself, and not only so, but are likewise your fellow servants; for there is one Lord and Ruler of all, and He is the maker of all creatures, whether princes or people. How would you look upon the temple of the one Lord of all? How could you lift up in prayer hands steeped in the blood of so unjust a massacre? Depart then, and do not by a second crime add to the guilt of the first."
The Emperor, who had been brought up in the knowledge of Holy Scripture, and who knew well the distinction between the ecclesiastical and the temporal power, submitted to the rebuke, and with many tears and groans returned to his palace. The Emperor shut himself up in his palace and shed floods of tears. After vain attempts to appease Ambrose, Theodosius himself at last went to Ambrose privately and besought mercy, saying: "I beseech you, in consideration of the mercy of our common Lord, to unloose me from these bonds, and not to shut the door which is opened by the Lord to all that truly repent." Ambrose stipulated that the Emperor should prove his repentance by recalling his unjust decrees, and especially by ordering "that when sentence of death or of proscription has been signed against anyone, thirty days are to elapse before execution, and on the expiration of that time the case is to be brought again before you, for your resentment will then be calmed and you can justly decide the issue." The Emperor listened to this advice, and deeming it excellent, he at once ordered the law to be drawn up, and himself signed the document. St. Ambrose then unloosed his bonds.
The Emperor, who was full of faith, now took courage to enter the holy church where he prayed neither in a standing, nor in a kneeling posture, but throwing himself upon the ground. He tore his hair, struck his forehead, and shed torrents of tears, as he implored forgiveness of God. Ambrose restored him to favor, but forbade him to come inside the altar rail, ordering his deacon to say: "The priests alone, O Emperor, are permitted to enter within the barriers by the altar. Retire then, and remain with the rest of the laity. A purple robe makes Emperors, but not priests." Theodosius meekly obeyed, praising Ambrose for his spirit, and saying: "Ambrose alone deserves the title of bishop."

Q: How do I handle a failed SubmitChanges in LinqToSql? If the db.SubmitChanges failed for whatever reason, I want to return a failed message.
DO I just catch the error or does the ConflictMode help here?

A: The FailOnFirstConflict specifies that attempts to update the database should stop immediately. ContinueOnConflict specifies that all updates to the database should be tried.
The latter may lead to inconsistent results, depending on the type of save/update you are performing.
So unless this is not relevant to you, simply return the first error by using FailOnFirstConflict.

A: ContinueOnConflict will still rollback. It will, however, try to apply all the changes it can to the database. This means that you can catch and report all the conflicts, rather than just the first one.
There is code in the answers to another question that show you how to do this.

The Spirit of Inquiry: How One Extraordinary Society Shaped Modern Science
Susannah Gibson
Oxford University Press, £25.00
Reviewing a great book is much like witnessing a blue moon, infrequent but captivating. For me, The Spirit of Inquiry was one such event.
This details the history of the Cambridge Philosophical Society from its inception in 1819 to the present day. It was founded by Adam Sedgwick and John Stevens Henslow, who worked with rocks and tried to understand the Earth's past using the newly devised science of geology.
The enthusiastic manner by which these two set about the establishment of a society is typical of the age when there was a genuine desire to share and develop ideas about the natural world and the skies above.
Like-minded men, designated Fellows and graduates of the University of Cambridge came together to present their understanding of the embryonic fields of botany, chemistry, geology, mineralogy and zoology. These represented the intellectual thinkers of their day and it is they who began a movement that paved the way for professional science and social changes, shaping both centuries that followed and resulting in the many advances we benefit from today.
The founding Fellows showed extraordinary generosity in donating their personal collections of British insects, shells, and anatomical, geological and mineralogical specimens. Additionally, by paying membership fees, giving freely of their time and pooling other resources, they established a museum and comprehensively stocked library housed in permanent accommodation, which was further secured in the long term by the award of a royal charter in 1832.
Technological changes in printing and lithography at the time the society began enabled the publication of books and transactions, containing peer-reviewed papers by Darwin, Babbage, Wilson (describing his cloud chamber) and Eddington. Later came women, such as
Anna Bateson, who with her brother William presented papers on botanical variation in 1890, and very many others over the two centuries.
Reading Gibson's account seduced me into believing I was in the audience during those iconic meetings, when the intellectual giants of the day expounded ideas, demonstrated apparatus and captivated minds. This book deserves your time.

GOP senators unveil paid parental leave proposal
By Naomi Jagoda - 03/12/19 01:27 PM EDT

GOP Sens. Mike Lee Michael (Mike) Shumway LeeSenators are politicians, not jurors — they should act like it Sens. Kaine, Lee: 'We should not be at war with Iran unless Congress authorizes it' Overnight Defense: War powers fight runs into impeachment | Kaine has 51 votes for Iran resolution | Trump plans to divert .2B from Pentagon to border wall MORE (Utah) and Joni Ernst Joni Kay ErnstJuan Williams: Counting the votes to remove Trump Mitch McConnell may win the impeachment and lose the Senate Drug price outrage threatens to be liability for GOP MORE (Iowa) on Tuesday rolled out a paid parental leave proposal, as the issue is getting increasing attention from policymakers on both sides of the aisle.
The senators' draft legislation, known as the Cradle Act, would allow new parents to receive up to three months of paid-leave benefits after the birth or adoption of a child, in exchange for delaying collecting Social Security benefits when they retire.
"I believe the Cradle Act is a policy that not only attracts consensus, but is viable for families, employers and our economy," Ernst said during a press conference.
Under the proposal, new parents would have the option to take one, two or three months of paid leave benefits. They would then postpone collection of their Social Security retirement benefits by two months for every one month of parental leave they take.
The benefit amount would be based on the formula used for calculating Social Security disability benefits. A fact sheet from the senators' offices said that a single parent with income equal to the federal poverty level would receive a benefit equal to about 74 percent of their wages.
Lee said the goal is for the draft legislation to be budget neutral in the long run, but at the front-end there would be costs of about $8 billion to $9 billion annually. He said that he and Ernst are looking at ways to offset those short-term costs.
The proposal comes as both Republicans and Democrats have put more focus on pushing for paid family leave ahead of the 2020 presidential election, when women will be a key group of voters.
Ivanka Trump Ivana (Ivanka) Marie TrumpJared Kushner's sister-in-law Karlie Kloss says she will vote against Trump in 2020 Trump scheduled to attend Davos amid impeachment trial Lawmakers introduce bill to bolster artificial intelligence, quantum computing MORE, the president's daughter and adviser, has made paid leave one of her top priorities and met with Ernst, Lee and other GOP senators to discuss the topic last month. She said in a statement Tuesday that she looks forward to reviewing the proposal from Ernst and Lee.
"I will continue to work with members on both sides of the aisle in support of the President's goal of passing into law Paid Family Leave policy that supports 21st Century American working families," she said.
The ideas in Ernst and Lee's draft bill are based on a proposal from the conservative Independent Women's Forum. Sen. Marco Rubio Marco Antonio RubioApple under pressure to unlock Pensacola shooter's phones Senators offer bill to create alternatives to Huawei in 5G tech Surging Sanders draws fresh scrutiny ahead of debate MORE (R-Fla.) also offered similar legislation last year.
But Democrats have criticized the idea of a paid leave benefit that takes the form of early Social Security benefits, saying that people shouldn't have to choose between paid leave and retirement benefits. They have also criticized proposals that focus just on paid parental leave, rather than both family and medical leave.
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand Kirsten GillibrandSanders defends vote against USMCA: 'Not a single damn mention' of climate change The Hill's Morning Report — President Trump on trial Overnight Energy: Schumer votes against USMCA, citing climate impact | Republicans offer details on their environmental proposals | Microsoft aims to be carbon negative by 2030 MORE (D-N.Y.), who has offered her own paid leave bill that takes a different approach, said in a statement Tuesday that Ernst and Lee's proposal is "not a realistic plan."
"It only covers new parents and it creates a false choice between Social Security and paid leave," she said. "We urgently need a national paid leave program that covers all workers for all medical emergencies, and anything less is just not enough."
Gillibrand, who has entered the 2020 presidential race, has offered legislation that would create a paid family and medical leave benefit that would be paid for through a small increase in payroll taxes. Republicans, however, have been critical of the tax increases associated with that bill.
Lee stressed that the paid parental leave benefit in his proposal is optional, and he said that those who are eligible for the benefit are likely to want to take it because they consider it valuable to spend time with their newborn. He also said that new parents have been paying into the Social Security system and will be paying into it for decades to come after their children are born.
"It's a tradeoff, but it's a tradeoff that I think many will take," he said.
Lee said that he and Ernst have discussed their proposal with a number of their Democratic colleagues, and several are considering supporting it. He declined to name the Democratic senators who might back his plan.

More Sports:
Should the Eagles trade or keep Mychal Kendricks?
By Jimmy Kempski
Eagles NFL
The Philadelphia Eagles reportedly almost traded Mychal Kendricks this offseason to the San Francisco 49ers, and according to a source, would still be willing to deal him for the right offer.
Don't be surprised to see Eagles TE Zach Ertz lined up at wide receiver this season
What they're saying: Kendricks key to Eagles blitz, reactions to McDougle trade, and Madden ratings
Eagles get important depth player back
Doug Pederson names four roster battles yet to be settled
Kendricks is not an ideal scheme fit, seeing as arguably his best attribute – blitzing the quarterback – was not often used by Jim Schwartz a season ago. Meanwhile, perhaps Kendricks' worst attribute – covering running backs and tight ends man to man – is a skill that Schwartz's scheme prioritizes.
There are some Eagles observers, however, who believe that the team would be better served to simply keep Kendricks, citing his good play in the preseason as well as a lack of proven depth at the position otherwise.
Both arguments make sense. In the Eagles' three preseason games, Kendricks has four tackles, a sack, three interceptions, and a pressure that forced a bad throw that was picked off by Ronald Darby.
Kendricks' three interceptions were of the "lucky" variety to some degree, as he has capitalized in being in the right spot. For example:
Mychal Kendricks now has 3 INTs in 3 preseason games including a pick-6 tonight vs Miami. pic.twitter.com/VajPsRk4Sz
— NFL Update (@MySportsUpdate) August 25, 2017
Still, Schwartz gave Kendricks credit for the plays that he has made.
"I don't know if you could have any more production than him in the preseason," he said. "Good gracious. A little bit of it is being opportunistic, but he's been in the right spots. When he's gotten those tipped balls – there's a certain aspect of I want to say luck of getting a tipped ball. But, he's been where he's supposed to have been, and that's why the tipped balls have come right to him. I think that's good."
Schwartz also revealed that perhaps the reason he did not blitz Kendricks more last season was because he did not trust his cornerbacks on the back end.
"He's rushed the passer well," said Schwartz. "That ties into a lot of other things. That ties into the corners' ability and our confidence in our corners being able to how much we can blitz him. I've been very impressed with (Kendricks), his attitude, and embracing everything that had to do with practice. He's stayed really focused in training camp. He's found a way to be productive. I'm impressed by that."
With the addition of Ronald Darby, and Jalen Mills making strides in his second year in the league, perhaps Schwartz will feel more comfortable utilizing Kendricks' blitzing ability with more frequency because of potentially improved play from his corners.
When asked if Kendricks could see more playing time after a strong preseason, Schwartz acknowledged that he might.
"That really depends on so many things that go further on down the line," he responded. "Right now, we've worked, even in practice yesterday, we have worked some stuff where Nigel Bradham moved into the MIKE linebacker and (Kendricks) moved into Nigel's spot to get those guys out there in nickel together, and that's something Nigel hasn't done.
"If we had a game today, Jordan Hicks couldn't play. It's our responsibility to get the guys that can best produce on the field. He's certainly forced himself into that conversation."
Or maybe gotten other teams to notice? We'll see.

9/11 survivors at risk of heart attack, lung disease: Study
For the study, published in the journal Injury Epidemiology, the team enrolled 8,701 people to examine the association between physical injury or acute exposure to the dust cloud on the morning of September 11, 2001, and chronic disease up to 10 to 11 years later.
By: IANS | New York |
The researchers found that there were 92 incident cases of heart disease, 308 cases of asthma, and 297 cases of non-neoplastic lung disease among 7,503 area workers, 249 rescue workers, 131 residents and 818 passersby. (Source: File Photo)
People who were exposed to the dust cloud or sustained physical injuries during the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre on September 11, 2001, may be at an increased long-term risk of developing asthma and heart attack, researchers have found.
"Our findings indicate that intense exposure on a single day — the first day of the disaster — contributes substantially to the risk of developing chronic conditions," said Robert Brackbill from the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.
The findings showed that individuals exposed to dust had a higher risk of non-neoplastic lung disease (lung conditions not involving tumours) other than asthma, while dust exposure on its own was associated with an increased risk of asthma.
The number of types of injuries, such as fractures, head injuries, or sprains, a person sustained on 9/11 was associated with an increased risk of angina or heart attack in a dose-dependent manner, which means that the risk of having angina or a heart attack increased with every additional injury type, the researchers said.
The researchers found that there were 92 incident cases of heart disease, 308 cases of asthma, and 297 cases of non-neoplastic lung disease among 7,503 area workers, 249 rescue workers, 131 residents and 818 passersby.

This has to be one of my favourite outfits I have posted in a while! I got sent these Current/Elliott jeans by Trilogy to review on DenimBlog (which you can see here) and I am absolutely in love with them! I love bright colours as you know and this outfit really makes me smile. I'm going to be wearing these jeans a lot!
I'm wearing Current/Elliott The Skinny jeans in Bright Rose, an All Saints Flamingo tee, a Topshop cream blazer and Sugar mary jane heels, a Lipsy bangle watch, an AVON pink stone ring and my Ray Ban Cats 5000 pink glitter sunglasses.
This Flamingo tee was sort of an impulse buy, I saw it in the store and the price was too good to pass on! I'm glad I bought it too. I also got another tee I had been eyeing for a while, I just completely fell in love with it more when I saw it in person. I will share that with you soon! So what do you think of my bright pink outfit? Hopefully you love it as much as I do! Pink is my favourite!

Sorry this post is so late, I was watching a movie with my mother. Please forgive me that it is technically Sunday not Saturday (for some of you is still Saturday so it still count, LOL. So today you'll get two posts. Like my last post says, time is a tricky thing. On to the post now.
Why I am grateful for the unknown, you might ask? Well sometimes we try to be so precise, planned every little aspect of our life. Then something unknown and unexpected happens that changes the course of our life. I know this first hand. I think that when something unknown happens in our life is because is what it needed to happen in the first place. It was meant to be.
I met my husband, the man I love because one of those unknown things of life. We both were working at the same factory, same shifts just different areas. So we had never crossed paths, but something unexpected happened, the areas I was working on was reducing personnel so I was asked to trained for another area. And you know what area I was put on, yes, my husband's.
I met the most wonderful man, the man I was meant because something unexpected, something unknown to me happened. That is why I am grateful for the unknown. It has brought me one of the best things of my life, my husband (he will get his own post soon, that I guarantee you). So don't be afraid of the things that you don't know or that you are not certain because they can be the biggest blessings of your life.

The Chinese themed slots are popular amongst the casino players in an affirmative way. Especially when you are playing in one of the Asian casinos. But rest assured, these Chinese themes have a lot of things stored in for the players. Emperor Of The Sea casino game includes some unexpected surprises. So, when Microgaming launched the fresh version of this slot game, players were anticipatory until they played it.
The graphics are the mixture of both modern technological and the oriental Chinese taste. It is making sure you can have fun with the visuals. After all, the five high-valued symbols in this five-reeled slot are based on the Chinese culture- dragons, a pot filled with gold, a relaxing turtle, Koi carp, and a Chinese junk piece. The lower valued symbols do not baffle the players with its not-so-Chinese orientation. Play this slot and enjoy the Chinese theme.
The slot game has a healthy amount of eighty-eight pay lines, something which is quite unusual for the slots to have. Nevertheless, that hasn't demeaned the craze of the players, especially when it has exceptional free spins.

Q: Rotating a 2 dimensional array in python I need to rotate this 2 dimensional array clockwise and counter clockwise.
LIST = [['.', '.', '.', '.', '.', '.'],
        ['.', 'O', 'O', '.', '.', '.'],
        ['O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.', '.'],
        ['O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.'],
        ['.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O'],
        ['O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.'],
        ['O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.', '.'],
        ['.', 'O', 'O', '.', '.', '.'],
        ['.', '.', '.', '.', '.', '.']]

I tried this to rotate the list clockwise but it doesn't give me any results:
rotated_list = []

i = 0
j = 0
x = len(LIST)
y = len(LIST[0])

while i < x:
    while j < y:
        rotated_list[j][i] = LIST[i][j]
        j += 1
    i += 1

The result I need should look something like this:
..OO.OO..
.OOOOOOO.
.OOOOOOO.
..OOOOO..
...OOO...
....O....

A: The problem is that you're trying to set a value of what you can imagine being a non-existent place. The list is not an array, it doesn't have any empty cells, instead, you have to l.append(value) to it.  Also, you can use for loops instead of while - they do the same thing. Here's my solution:
rotated_list = []

x = len(LIST[0])
y = len(LIST)

for i in range(x):
    rotated_list.append([])
    for j in range(y):
        rotated_list[-1].append(LIST[j][i])

Hope that's helpful!

A: You can use zip in a list comprehension to do the rotation:
LIST = [['.', '.', '.', '.', '.', '.'],
        ['.', 'O', 'O', '.', '.', '.'],
        ['O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.', '.'],
        ['O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.'],
        ['.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O'],
        ['O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.'],
        ['O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.', '.'],
        ['.', 'O', 'O', '.', '.', '.'],
        ['.', '.', '.', '.', '.', 'X']]

Rotate once:
LIST = [ [*r][::-1] for r in zip(*LIST) ]

for line in LIST: print(line)

['.', '.', 'O', 'O', '.', 'O', 'O', '.', '.']
['.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.']
['.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.']
['.', '.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.', '.']
['.', '.', '.', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.', '.', '.']
['X', '.', '.', '.', 'O', '.', '.', '.', '.']

Rotate again:
LIST = [ [*r][::-1] for r in zip(*LIST) ]

for line in LIST: print(line)

['X', '.', '.', '.', '.', '.']
['.', '.', '.', 'O', 'O', '.']
['.', '.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O']
['.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O']
['O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.']
['.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O']
['.', '.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O']
['.', '.', '.', 'O', 'O', '.']
['.', '.', '.', '.', '.', '.']

Rotate again:
LIST = [ [*r][::-1] for r in zip(*LIST) ]

for line in LIST: print(line)

['.', '.', '.', '.', 'O', '.', '.', '.', 'X']
['.', '.', '.', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.', '.', '.']
['.', '.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.', '.']
['.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.']
['.', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', 'O', '.']
['.', '.', 'O', 'O', '.', 'O', 'O', '.', '.']

For counterclockwise rotation you can use this:
LIST = [ [*r] for r in zip(*map(reversed,LIST)) ]

Without list comprehensions:
LIST = list(map(list,map(reversed,zip(*LIST)))) # clockwise
LIST = list(map(list,zip(*map(reversed,LIST)))) # counter clockwise

Can a Third-Party President Get Elected?
With more Americans registering as independents than as Democrats or Republicans, can an outsider make it to the White House in 2012? Joining us to discuss the changing electoral landscape are Rocky Anderson, Kellen Arno, and Buddy Roemer. Former Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson is running for president with the newly formed Justice Party; his citizen-financed campaign rejects special interest and corporate funding. Arno is National Field Director of AmericansElect.org, an online presidential nominating process aimed at providing a competitive, nonpartisan ticket. Former Louisiana governor Roemer is an independent who served four terms as a U.S. congressman and never accepted special interest money. His current presidential campaign limits donations to $100.

9 Wolff: Russell must iron out mistakes to make progress
10 Ogier expects his final WRC year to be most open yet
Perez: My fate shows that F1 doesn't have the best drivers
Published on Monday December 7th 2020
Sergio Perez says the risk of him being left without a seat in 2021 shows that Formula 1 does not necessarily have the "best drivers" in the world.
The Mexican claimed his maiden F1 victory for Racing Point with a stunning charge from the back of the field in the Sakhir Grand Prix on Sunday.
But despite his success, which has left his team on the verge of securing third place in the constructors' championship, Perez is in danger of being out of F1 next year.
He is being replaced at the soon-to-be-renamed Aston Martin team by Sebastian Vettel for next year, and his only hope of a seat now rests with Red Bull, which is reluctant to give up on Alex Albon.
Perez is clear that his fate is now out of his hands, but says that his recent strong run of form has left more determined than ever not to give up on an F1 future.
PLUS: The unseen mistake that nearly cost Perez victory in Russell's race
He has reiterated that he has some options for 2022, but also thinks it is a sad state of affairs for F1 that someone like him cannot find a seat.
"I already have some good options for 2022 so my best option is obviously to keep going on next year," he said.
"But if I have to stop, then it's not a disaster, I can come back in 2022.
"The regulations are going to change so much that, in a way, I don't think it will hurt that much the driving side, to get up to speed.
"I'm at peace with myself. I think Esteban [Ocon has] mentioned that drivers like him missing out on seats, it's just the way Formula 1 is.
"It can be really tough and not the best drivers are in Formula 1 unfortunately. So we keep pushing and we keep delivering and I think that's the best way to do it."
Ocon, who himself had to take a year out of F1 before coming back with Renault this season, thinks the situation in the series is not normal if drivers like Perez cannot secure seats.
"He's one of the top guys out there and he can't be left outside," said the Frenchman, who finished behind Perez on Sunday.
"It would not be normal. But sometimes the sport is like that, unfortunately, and you don't end up in the best situations.
"On my side obviously it's been a tough year but I was in good hands.
"I had a lot of people believing in me and supporting me, which has helped me to come back after a year out - and here we are.
"It is not easy to get going but after a bit of running, you get there."

The population of Australia is ageing. As we age, more and more people are searching for that Fountain of Youth, for anything that can help them look younger. As doctors, we hear it every day from our patients. They yearn to feel and look young again. Now, you can help them when you enrol in cosmetic injectable training in Brisbane, Gold Coast, or Sydney at the Academy of Cosmetic Medicine & Science (ACMAS). Regardless of your specialty or your experience with cosmetic procedures, you can take our course and provide your patients with options. Having the ability to perform cosmetic injections can only make you and your practice more profitable.
Australians continue to search for ways to improve their appearance and how they feel about themselves. Many just are not blessed with great genes and need the occasional augmentation to their face. Cosmetic injections can make the lips fuller or compensate for weak cheekbones or facial structure.
One of the prominent reasons for having cosmetic procedures is to reverse the signs of ageing. Injections performed by highly trained professionals like those who train at ACMAS can help to eliminate wrinkles and give skin a younger-looking appearance. The injections can contribute to eliminating lines and even help with some of the sagging that skin develops over the years. The results can help a patient look years younger and allow them to feel better about themselves.
Who Can Receive Cosmetic Injectable Training in Australia?
Medically qualified professionals including doctors, dentists, and nurses can train to become cosmetic injectors. It does not matter what a physician's specialty is, he or she may take the cosmetic injectable training course at ACMAS to become a cosmetic injector. The Academy was developed to provide the training and assessment required for medically qualified professionals wanting to become capable of delivering cosmetic injections and perform minimally invasive surgery. Those interested can choose from the flexible course schedule and will benefit from the training offered by highly trained and experienced medical professionals who specialise in a number of different areas of cosmetic medicine.
The emphasis at the Academy is on practical training. That means those who enrol and participate in courses at one of our three locations – Sydney, Brisbane, Gold Coast – will receive hands-on experience. All training is offered by experienced professionals in the field of cosmetic medicine. One of the advantages is the flexibility that is provided by ACMAS. Doctors and other medical professionals can continue their current jobs and take the training at the Academy on a part-time basis. Participants also have the option of online training. ACMAS understands that people need flexibility in course delivery to meet the demands of their busy lifestyles.
With the number of people desirous to enhance their appearance, it only makes sense for doctors to add cosmetic injectables to their repertoire. For more information on cosmetic injectable training in Sydney from ACMAS, please contact us on 1300 INJECT or 1300 465 328.

Stuart Baxter reflects on World Cup campaign
15 November 2017 – Bafana Bafana coach Stuart Baxter has reflected on a FIFA World Cup campaign which ended with a 2-1 away defeat to Senegal on Tuesday night.
The Bafana Bafana coach admitted the FIFA World Cup qualifiers was a difficult campaign adding it is not easy to come in and impose your philosophy there and then and put across your ideas. This is something which is a process and takes time.
"The replay against Senegal, a match South Africa had won, didn't help for the mental part of the game. However, looking back, I think our biggest shortcoming, which has been the country's perennial problem, has been scoring goals."
"We need to understand what win games; it is something I have been trying to put across to the players as part of my philosophy," said Baxter.
The coach however said in trying to inculcate the winning mentality, it was important not to compromise the South African tradition of doing things.
"We need to maintain our philosophy and that is flamboyance and attacking football."
Baxter said while results at most times were disappointing, Bafana Bafana showed if the team gets the balance right between efficiency and flamboyance, they can mix with the best there is.
"But we are not consistent enough; we need to produce that type of football on regular basis to stay on top."
He said most of that was caused by lack of scoring prowess but was something he would work on although results cannot be achieved overnight.
"We need to challenge for top slots. We have shown it against top opposition; we have dominated them for long periods with some good football but failed to finish them off.
"What we need is to be more professional and continue to develop our own type of football that reflects the culture of South Africa," said Baxter.
The coach said he would like to thank South African supporters whose love for the national team was unquestionable.
"They (fans) play an important role in the development of the game and we hope they continue to be part of this process. They are the most important stakeholder of the game."


How I nabbed the most important mentor of my career — without ever asking for her time.
"Find a mentor" leads any checklist for career success. But if you don't know how to treat the relationship, you can easily turn a potential mentor into a de facto career coach you don't pay (and instead just annoy).
My mentors have taken me far already in my career -- and I've never asked anyone for their time. Here are a few simple tricks I've learned to find mentors without ever uttering the words "pick your brain" or embarrassing myself by offering coffee as compensation.
Like most of my peers, I followed a lot of bloggers when I started writing. Many had useful tips to share about the craft or business of writing, and a few had careers I could learn from.
One writer, Alexis Grant, had a career I loved, a mix of traditional journalism and online media experience that was unusual in the space at the time. The clincher? She was just a few years ahead of me in that career path, so I could actually see myself in her shoes one day -- not so easy when you try to emulate the best-known players in your field as an amateur.
I gobbled up every career and writing tip Grant shared. And I watched what she was doing that she wasn't writing about: What kind of work did she take on? How did she promote herself? Who was she connected to?
I didn't follow her path exactly. That wouldn't have done me any good. Instead, from what she did, I learned how my career could possibly look. Especially when you're not following a well-beaten career path, that's invaluable.
When you're ready to connect, don't simply by ask for someone's time. Figure out what you can offer to earn it.
When Grant was editing a new site, I pitched stories. When I ran an interview series on my blog, I invited her. When she launched a new site, The Write Life, I contributed posts. When her budding content management firm needed freelancers, I was available.
"When I see someone with potential," Grant told me when I asked for her perspective on our mentoring history, "I get personal satisfaction by watching or helping them succeed -- which serves as an incentive for me to send more opportunities their way."
I offered my value in exchange for the effort she'd spend telling me about her work or editing my stories, so I could connect -- and, therefore, learn -- directly without wasting her time.
Know their value, and don't miss out.
I never thought of Grant explicitly as a mentor, because I'd never sought one. I just admired her work and enjoyed working with her, so I paid attention and learned without blatantly asking her to teach me anything or open any doors for me.
When she joined The Penny Hoarder in 2015, as always, I jumped at the open writer positions. I landed a job and moved from Wisconsin to St. Petersburg, Florida, to join the company as hire No. 10.
I'd never been to Florida or worked in an office, and I was only vaguely aware of The Penny Hoarder -- but I knew Grant surrounded herself with smart people and took on exciting challenges, and I wanted to be part of it.
Three and a half years later, the company has grown to more than 100 people and landed three times on the Inc. 5000 -- and I've grown from a staff writer to an editor managing five people.
I've admired and learned from many people in my career besides Grant (I told you: not that obsessive). She's just had the greatest impact thus far and has represented the myriad types of mentors I might have sought in my career if I'd paid attention to those checklists.
For finding all my best learning opportunities, my best tool has simply been a willingness to say "yes."
As I've shown my value, Grant has invited me to work on projects well outside my comfort zone: social media, design, video, staff training, developing editorial processes, launching a daily newsletter, speaking at a conference and even reorganizing the company's Slack channels.
"The real test is whether someone maximizes those opportunities," Grant said. "If they do, it motivates me to help them even more. If they don't follow through, I wouldn't put my energy into them the next time."
Every opportunity is intimidating, but I never say no. Each one comes with a chance to learn from her and other innovative leaders -- and I've never had to offer to buy anyone a cup of coffee.


During the summer Toshimaen Amusement Park is a favorite spot for Tokyo's residents to cool off. With a water park and an amusement park side by side it is kind of like Six Flags or Busch Gardens, just with not as many max adrenaline roller coaster rides. It's a family friendly place. However, during the winter when it is much too cold to attract any business, Toshimaen converts many of its water park attractions into habitat for Rainbow, Yamame, Iwana, Amago, Brown Trout, Brook Trout, and Albino Trout! The fish are grown in the waters flowing from Mount Fuji and then trucked into Tokyo where they live out the winter in the ultra unique Toshimaen Fishing Park!
When I first read about this place on Kawasaki Fly Fishing I couldn't believe it and had to go see it for myself.
It is pretty wild to be fishing in the middle of an amusement park. Just on the other side of the fence was an outdoor ice skating rink and a giant swing called "Flying Pirates!". There was also a pack of feral cats wandering the premises "meowing" incessantly for a fish (or maybe an onigiri). I picked up a 1 hour fishing ticket for ¥1,100 and rigged my Tenkara rod. I began working my way around the man made river with the sounds of the oxygenation fountains, meowing cats,hip hop from the ice skating rink, and the occasional rising fish soothing me into a nice rhythm.
I visited mid week and the place was surprisingly a little crowded. Luckily I was one of six fly anglers and the rest were bait and lure so I didn't have to finagle my way into a spot.

I did manage to catch one fly in a nearby tree (just like out in the mountains!) but I quickly retrieved it. I blamed one of the cats for the mishap and it quickly scampered away.
After working the fly section for a full hour and only getting two strong bites I decided to wander around a bit and see the rest of the fishing park.
That's one big fish for growing up in a swimming pool in Tokyo!
