Despite hitting the top of the charts several times in their native Ireland, the Boomtown Rats never really caught on in America. Their label, Columbia Records, had hyped them as the next big punk band, saying they would be in the same league as The Clash and The Pretenders.
It didn't happen - mostly due to the fact that they never had the material to win over radio programmers, despite having a hit with "I Don't Like Mondays." Also an early promotion by the label involved sending actual dead rats in plastic bags (purchased from the New York City Sewer Department) to DJs across the country. The publicity stunt backfired and caused the media to react with such disgust that many of these radio personalities, programmers and journalists wrote off the band forever.
Led by the charismatic lead vocalist Bob Geldof, the group certainly had a great showman as their front man on stage. The band, assisted by former Graham Parker reed man Space Jenner, was certainly comprised of strong musicians. Their two studio albums produced by the future Mr. Shania Twain, Robert John Mutt Lange (who also produced some of the best records ever made by Foreigner, Huey Lewis and AC/DC) should have propelled them into stardom, but didn't.

A: Your gradle version is too old to recognize java 12. You should be able to fix that by updating gradle to latest release.
I am not sure if that would fix the rest, but it's possible that the different language bindings interact that way.

While holograms and flying cars may still be a vision of a George Jetson lifestyle, ads and notifications tailored to your exact location are a very real aspect of the future that is present now. Location-based marketing is capable of changing our world forever, but what exactly falls under this category, and how does it work? Geotargeting, geofencing, and beacons are the three main terms you should strongly consider adding to your repertoire of the latest technological advances in the world of marketing.
This involves delivering different content, such as ads, to a website user based on their geographical location. People are naturally drawn to events and deals happening around them. That's why geotargeting delivers web content that is highly relatable to their location. When you acquire information from geotargeting, you can pair it with pre-existing data about a user's preferences, actions, or demographics in order to better enhance the personalization of those push-ads. Geotargeting is effective for reaching users that you have some prior background knowledge about the product or company within a broad designated area, like a zip code.
Every device connected to the internet has an individual IP address, much like your home address. Geotargeting uses these IP addresses to find and reach all devices within a given range. The first three digits provide a country code; the numbers go as in-depth as a postal code.
On the Airbnb homepage, web content is different based upon your location. When you're in California you get accommodations in cities such as Santa Cruz, San Francisco, and Monterey. When you access Airbnb from Singapore, the images automatically show accommodations in cities neighboring Singapore. This is a perfect example of how a large organization utilizes geotargeting to display relevant information to their visitors.
Similar to geotargeting, but geofencing allows a business to send notifications to people by the use of a virtual fence or a designated boundary that a marketer sets. As opposed to geotargeting, geofencing does not go as in-depth to pair with specifics such as demographics; however, it does target the area more accurately. For this reason, it's a tool that is especially useful for retailers. You would be capable of sending out a notification to anyone passing by your store location, entering a mall, or in the parking lot. Receiving a location-triggered alert or deal makes the consumers considerably more likely to stop in and shop at your business.
Using GPS technology, a tiny chip in your phone creates a virtual fence around a chosen geographical area. Assuming a customer has opted-in to your notifications, once a device moves in and out of the fenced off space, the user receives an ad, offer or notification via text, email, or through an app. Geofencing typically reaches users within a 50-meter range.
For example, an auto dealer could set up a geofence aimed at targeting individuals who are leaving rival dealerships after browsing for a car. Hitting them with an offer for zero percent financing on a comparable car model at that moment is more likely to make them come comparison shop. Even if a geofenced offer doesn't provoke an immediate visit or sale, it allows a business to know exactly what location a consumer passed through – and where they were when they received the offer or notification.
Rumors are circulating that Starbucks is thinking about establishing a geofence around each of their locations. The geofence would alert passersby that there's a deal on a specialty coffee drink just around the corner. It sounds pretty cool, but if you live in a place like New York City, the number of alerts you would receive, simply by walking a few blocks down the street, would be outrageous.
Tangible objects, usually under two square inches. Place beacons in a location that you choose, and detect a user's mobile device. These tools themselves do not send content but discover a device when in range, then allowing a server to send out your choice of communication. Beacons have a greater sensitivity than GPS-based location tracking. This allows them to be much more accurate than both geotargeting and geofencing. These identifiers can detect your location almost to the inch. Primarily, brick and mortar stores use them for determining which aisle a user is in, what displays they're looking at, and for how long.
There are even beacon-embedded mannequins! This tool would allow you to send deals to your customers as soon as they stop at any given display. From a store or business standpoint, this would inform you of which products are most appealing and this also grants you the knowledge of how to arrange your store to be most visually stimulating. Most brands that have tried beacons are satisfied with them. The downside to this tool is that it uses Bluetooth as opposed to GPS or WiFi. So, the user has to have their Bluetooth turned on – which isn't as common.
We also refer to Beacons as Bluetooth Low Energy or BLE. This means that the battery life in them has great longevity and they can be used in areas without WiFi. Beacons are also less expensive than GPS or WiFi technology. Although, a lot of this is very new technology, it is available to leverage your business today. Beacons are affordable, practical, and easy to install.
You would normally think that beacons would only be used in stores. This is in fact wrong. Beacons are used in various settings such as airports, sporting arenas or stadiums, corporate lobbies and even trade shows. The latest adopter of the beacon technology is the Cleveland Cavaliers Stadium. They are now offering their customers a unique sporting experience. By pairing hundreds of beacons with their Cavaliers app they have the ability to send guests information based on where they are located in the stadium. These are things like sending fans special video content, promotional offers and even letting them see the average wait times for concessions stands near their section.
While all of these new tools that are available to us are absolutely groundbreaking, we must also take into account the reactions that they will beget. Business's ability to access person's whereabouts can be seen as intrusive. The best way to know how your target market will react to this new technology is to simply ask them. Put out polls and figure out just how much information your consumers are comfortable disclosing.

Dictionary Publishers Consider Mx. as Transgender Alternative to Mr./Mrs.
Carrie Dedrick | Thursday, May 7, 2015
Publishers of the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) are considering adding an unofficial word to be the transgender alternative to "Mr.," "Mrs." or "Ms." The honorary term, called "Mx" would be added as a transgender title.
OED assistant editor Jonathan Dent said that the new word was "an example of how the English language adapts to people's needs."
"Contrary to what some news outlets have reported, the OED does not yet include the honorific Mx. We're not surprised, though, that its editors are considering adding the term," said Brewster.
According to Dent, the term was first used in 1977.
Emily A. Brewster, of Merriam-Webster said that the American dictionary does not currently have plans to add Mx, as the word is not often used in the United States.
"Mx. is used increasingly on various official forms in the U.K., as well in British newspapers and periodicals," Brewster told The Christian Post.
"Evidence of Mx in the US (or Mx., as it's styled over here) is far sparser, but we are monitoring its development and will be interested to see if it takes root here in the same way it has in the U.K."

Gambling Operator Wynn Resorts Is Targeting A 22% Revenue Hike By 2021
Harry Matthew
Gambling and hospitality giant, Wynn Resorts, is expecting a 22 percent hike in its gambling revenue by 2021. The company is positive about its growth opportunities.
In a meet on the occasion of annual analyst and investor day at the newly opened Everett casino, the gambling operator said that they believe that their revenue will grow by 22 percent in the next two years and its EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) will increase by 28%.
Wynn Resorts has been facing troubles, and fines from gambling operators after allegations of sexual misconduct against their former CEO Steve Wynn came into light.
Both the Nevada Gaming Commission and the Massachusetts Gaming Commission levied a fine of $20 million and $35 million respectively. The company was fined for downplaying and not reporting the cases of sexual misconduct against their former CEO.
Wynn's Ceo Matthew Maddox was also fined by the Massachusetts Gaming Commission separately for being complicit in not reporting allegations of sexual misconduct.
The company's new Encore casino in Massachusetts started welcoming guests from June 23.
Wynn is also in the race of an IR license in Japan. The company has already applied for a license with Osaka prefecture.

Spring Statement 2019 Summary
Spring Statement Summary
On Wedneday the 13th of March the Chancellor delivered the Spring 2019 Statement to Parliament, within the statement the Chancellor Stated that "the UK economy continues to grow, with wages increasing and unemployment at historic lows, providing a solid foundation on which to build Britain's economic future. With borrowing and debt both forecast to be lower in every year than at last year's Budget, the Chancellor set out further investments in infrastructure, technology, housing, skills, and clean growth, so that the UK can capitalise on the post-EU exit opportunities that lie ahead."
Relevant announcements for BEAMA members from the spring statement can be found below.
The government's efforts to build a stronger, fairer economy are paying off. The economy remains resilient, and is forecast to continue growing:
there have been nine consecutive years of growth, and the OBR has forecast further growth every year for the next 5 years
since 2010, the economy has grown faster than France, Italy and Japan
the OBR expects inflation to stay close to or on target for the duration of the forecast
business investment is forecast to start growing again from next year, once businesses have the certainty they need to invest
And employment continues to break records
since 2010 there are over 3.5 million more people in work, and the OBRforecast employment will increase by a further 600,000 by 2023
the unemployment rate of 4.0% is the lowest rate since 1975. The OBRforecast it will remain near historic lows over the next five years
wages are increasing at their fastest pace in over a decade, and are forecast to continue growing faster than inflation, which means more money in people's pockets
Tech and the new economy
Budget 2018 included significant additional support for cutting-edge science and technologies that will transform the economy, create highly skilled jobs, and boost living standards across the UK. Yesterday the Chancellor:
welcomed the Furman review, an independent review of competition in the digital economy, which has found that tech giants have become increasingly dominant. The Chancellor announced that the government will respond later in the year to the review's calls to update competition rules for the digital age – to open the market up and increase choice and innovation for consumers
has written to the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) asking them to carry out a market study of the digital advertising market as soon as is possible. This was a recommendation of the Furman Review
committed to funding the Joint European Torus programme in Oxfordshire as a wholly UK asset in the event the Commission does not renew the contract, giving the world-leading experts working at the facility certainty to continue their ground-breaking fusion energy research
Clean growth
The Budget 2018 set out how the government is accelerating the shift to a clean economy, building on the Industrial Strategy, Clean Growth Strategy, and 25 Year Environment Plan. The Spring Statement builds on this commitment:
to help smaller businesses reduce their energy bills and carbon emissions, the government is launching a call for evidence on a Business energy efficiency scheme to explore how it can support investment in energy efficiency measures
to help meet climate targets, the government will advance the decarbonisation of gas supplies by increasing the proportion of green gas in the grid, helping to reduce dependence on burning natural gas in homes and businesses
to help ensure consumer energy bills are low and homes are better for the environment, the government will introduce a Future Homes Standard by 2025, so that new build homes are future-proofed with low carbon heating and world-leading levels of energy efficiency
to give people the option to travel 'zero carbon', the government will launch a call for evidence on Offsetting Transport Emissions to explore consumer understanding of the emissions from their journeys and their options to offset them. This will also look into whether travel providers should be required to offer carbon offsets to their customers
Ensuring people have the skills that employers need is vital to creating the workforce of the future. The Budget set out steps to equip people with the skills to succeed in the modern economy, and today the Chancellor announced:
updates to apprenticeship reforms announced at Budget that mean from April 1st employers will see the co-investment rate they pay cut by a half from 10% to 5%, at the same time as levy-paying employers are able to share more levy funds across their supply chains, with the maximum amount rising from 10% to 25%
Investing in the future – housing and infrastructure
The government is determined to fix the broken housing market. Building more homes in the right places is critical to unlocking productivity growth and makes housing more affordable. At Autumn Budget 2017, the government set out a comprehensive package of new policies to raise housing supply by the end of this Parliament to its highest level since 1970, on track to reach 300,000 a year on average. The Spring Statement set out further steps to deliver this ambition:
published a consultation on Infrastructure Finance, seeking views on how the government can best support private infrastructure investment in the context of the UK's changing relationship with the European Investment Bank
reiterated the government's commitment to publishing a comprehensive National Infrastructure Strategy – the first of its kind – setting out the government's priorities for economic infrastructure and responding to recommendations in the National Infrastructure Commission's National Infrastructure Assessment

through the Affordable Homes Guarantee Scheme, the government will guarantee up to £3 billion of borrowing by housing associations in England to support delivery of around 30,000 affordable homes
The Chancellor also confirmed that the government will hold a Spending Review which will conclude alongside the Budget. This will set departmental budgets, including 3 year budgets for resource spending, if an EU exit deal is agreed. As at the past three Spending Reviews, the government will run a Zero-Based Review of capital spending where each programme or project will be scrutinised from the bottom up, ensuring the maximum return for the country. The Spending Review will also have a renewed focus on the outcomes achieved for the money invested – supporting a high-growth economy with public services that work for everyone.

Barbuda Court News Politics
UPP Candidates, present and past, rally behind Lovell and criticize police aggression
December 14, 2021 December 14, 2021 Editor
Members and Candidates of the United Progressive Party (UPP) are expressing disgust at the behaviour of police officers this morning, December 14, at the picket of the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions.
Corthwright Marshall, Candidate for St. Mary's South, says that officers' attempts to relocate the picketers did not make sense, since the protesters were not impeding anyone's passage and were picketing a particular office.
Marshall says the Police seemed to be operating under the dictate of government ministers.
Another UPP Candidate, Alex Browne, says the Police always come up with one reason or another to try to intimidate picketers and get them to disperse.
Meanwhile, Browne, the Candidate for St. Phillip's North, says he fully backs Political Leader Harold Lovell and his two colleagues, whose cases were thrown out by the High Court last month.
Regarding the confrontation with the Police, UPP Mobilization Officer George Wehner says that he was willing to lay down his life in defense of justice.
He says the Police should do their jobs fairly and stop following the dictates of the political administration.
Also on the picket line this morning was Mervyn Richards, former UPP Candidate for St. John's City South. Richards says his participation was two-fold: In support of his Party and in protest of the continued late payment of pensions.
While Social Security pensions are not being paid on time, he complains that the Government will spend money to appeal the Buses Case.

LED lights are a more subtle softer light than a halogen light and can be used either indoor or out doors. They come with a water tight transformer and the lights can also be used in or out of water. NOTE: The transformer can not be submerged.
LED Lights come in white or color changing, Red, Blue and Green which change slowly not flashing.

Our services and style of worship is like it is in any pentecostal church. We seek the presence of the Holy Spirit to move us and trus that He will make our fellowship not only meaningful but fruitful.
We do expect that believers from various denominations will choose to worship with us on one or two sundays. So, we welcome everyone and we always try to accommodate everyone's 'christian culture' and make your experience an enjoyable one.

By Dr. Harold A. Black
In 2013 Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee labelled the naming of hurricanes as racist and wondered why the National Hurricane Center didn't have black names for hurricanes. They have "white" names and Hispanic names but no black names. Look at the names for future hurricanes (http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/aboutnames.shtml). There is not a Lebron, Oprah, LaToya or LaTeisha to be found. So in today's climate in which the accusation of racist is bandied about one wonders why the "woke" crowd hasn't spoken up about the naming of hurricanes.
But what's in a name. We have seen an onslaught to change the names of sports teams. In professional sports the Cleveland Indians will soon be the Guardians. Since it is home to the Rock and Roll Museum I thought Cleveland Rocks would have been a better name. When Cincinnati got a professional football team, I submitted Cleveland Queens as a possible name since it's called the Queen City. It was rejected in favor or the Bengals which have no connection whatsoever to the city. We have seen the following:
Houston Colt 45s to Astros
Washington Bullets to Wizards
Washington Redskins to Football Team
Buffalo Braves to Clippers
Interestingly, there have been 52 major leaguers who were Native Americans. Perhaps the most famous was Jim Thorpe who played with the Giants and notably the 1919 Boston Braves. More modern players are Jacoby Ellsbury and Joba Chamberlain.
We still have the Atlanta Braves, Chicago Blackhawks, Golden State Warriors and Kansas City Chiefs. But I grew up in Atlanta where the minor league baseball team was the Atlanta Crackers and the Negro league team was the Atlanta Black Crackers. I kid you not.
Watch out Jimmy Haslam, some of the cancel culture crowd is bound to come after the Cleveland Browns – not knowing that the team is named after its legendary owner/coach Paul Brown.
More than a dozen college teams led first by Stanford changed their names. But we still have the Florida State Seminoles, Central Michigan Chippewas, Catawba Indians, Utah Utes, Illinois Fighting Illini, and the Texas Tech Red Raiders. What about the San Diego State Aztecs and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish (an ethnic slur if ever there was one)
We also still have the Ole Miss Rebels and the UNLV Rebels. I found it amusing when I was watching a basketball game and Ole Miss had five black players on the court and the announcer yelled 'Here come the Rebels!". Dixie State University (Utah) Rebels is changing to Utah Tech Trailblazers. Yet weren't the trailblazers a bunch of white explorers who paved the way for white expropriation of Indian lands?
I wonder when the animal rights activists will start protesting nicknames like the South Carolina Gamecocks or the arborists will protest the Ohio State Buckeyes? And weren't the original Tennessee Volunteers made up of Indian fighters, slave holders and white supremacists? Davy Crockett was an Indian fighter. Andrew Jackson was a white supremacist who led the Volunteers at the Battle of New Orleans and also was a loathsome slave holder, a vocal racist and force behind the Trail of Tears. He conscripted 500 slaves to fight in the Battle of New Orleans promising emancipation. He reneged and returned them all to slavery.
Lastly, do the Progressives realize that Joe Biden is living in the White House?

Just a note that RoofMaster, one of the companies listed on "Contractors Used and Recommended" started a process of a reorganization in late 2007 (before Oct) and might be focusing on green and solar roofing in the future.
RoofMaster performed the installation of a cold applied SBS white roof which utilizes a true white granule based roofing material. As seen on 31-81.com, the new roof now delivers both long-wearing reliability and energy savings. Among other benefits realized after installation, the building is cooler in the summers, cleaner and as a result, consumes less energy. Additional details on the heat island effect, white and reflective roofs and the resulting energy savings from cool roof installation can be seen on the "Apartments at 31-81" website.
While originally covered by a warrantee, if the company is dissolved next year, so is the warrantee. Granted the work they did was outstanding, it still is nice to know that coverage is out there when you need it.
Would be curious about their green options…..maybe they could work out our gutter situation too….
Hey, Roofmaster is still working strong! I do have strong interests in green roofing and have been trying to break into the solar industry, at least as a roofer. No worries, your warranty is still good.

Tallvik (baai met dennen) is een dorp binnen de Zweedse gemeente Överkalix.

Tallvik ligt op een landtong tussen de Kalixälven en de Ängesån; deze rivieren stromen een kilometer ten zuiden van het dorp samen. Aan de overzijde van de Kalixrivier ligt het dorp Överkalix. De beide dorpen zijn met elkaar verbonden door middel van een brug, de weg uit Tallvik is een van de twee mogelijkheden om in Överkalix te geraken. De rivier Kalix heeft hier een S-bocht. De omgeving is waterrijk, naast de twee genoemde rivieren liggen er tal van grote en kleine meren en natuurlijk de baai (vik) Tallviksavan genoemd; deze baai is door middel van een schoorwal van de rivier gescheiden, op een kleine opening na.

Een kilometer ten noorden van Tallvik ligt Norra Tallvik dat inmiddels groot genoeg is om in de statistieken apart vermeld te worden.

Bij de plaats lopen de E10, Riksväg 98 en Länsväg 392.
