Today{`'`}s the day: I{`'`}ve graduated from school.

      It all started around 11 years ago in the first
      class, when the little Leonard learned about
      the basics of life: Writing, reading and math. I need
      to say, back then it wasn{`'`}t that expensive
      to not flunk out. We did what we wanted, without
      spending one second thinking about our own
      future or giving a fuck about disciplinary measures.

      After finishing primary school, I went to high
      school because of my good grades. Of course that didn{`'`}t make
      much sense, since I was still the
      little troublemaker I was in the previous school. My
      parents tried it, but I didn{`'`}t spent much time
      there before I went down to secondary school. Although
      I was already very interested in computers in
      the high school, the whole coding thing actually
      started when some of my new friends in the secondary
      school introduced me to a homepage builder
      called {`"`}Homepage Baukasten{`"`} (german for homepage
      construction kit).

      We firstly wanted to build a homepage for
      our class and also did so. While my other classmates
      quickly lost their interest in this topic, I kept
      publishing my own site (I guess it
      was {`"`}applefreak-online.de.tl{`"`}) and started digging
      into the world of web development by
      disassembling random web apps.

      Over the time, I learned more and more by myself
      and also met a few people
      like <Link href="http://ombadesign.de">Daniel</Link> in school and many
      others over the web. None of us knew what the hell
      we did there, but we went on - because we were
      amazed by all the cool things the web allowed us to
      do (at least that{`'`}s my perspective). In contrast
      to the real world - where many liabilities
      and people with huge expectations waited for
      us - we could just do what we wanted here. It
      didn{`'`}t matter whether that meant to create
      fan pages for Minecraft Servers or stupid web apps.

      Then the time came, when everybody suddenly started
      thinking about his career. The school wanted
      us to do some internships and get some knowledge
      about what{`'`}s possible for each of us. Many went
      to do some kind of engineer- or financial-training
      in huge, widely-known company, since they knew
      to get the best payment there after they{`'`}ve started
      working. Only one went on with the educational
      way and decided to attend another school. And
      no, that wasn{`'`}t me.

      Since I don{`'`}t wanted to waste more time doing something
      I don{`'`}t like - while others who only make half of
      the effort are responsible for the big things
      in the industry - I{`'`}ll stop here and start
      doing what I really love.

Allstate to pay policyholders, reduce rates
Posted on April 21, 2014 by authenticweb
The Texas Department of Insurance and Allstate entered into an agreement whereby the insurance giant will refund some money to policyholders and reduce their rates.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports that Allstate must pay $36.8 million in refunds for new and renewal policies written between Dec. 1, 2004 and April 23, 2006; give credits or refunds that amount to 3 percent of premiums for most policies written between Aug. 20, 2007 and June 1, 2008; cut homeowners rates by 3 percent on average statewide for most policies written between June 2, 2008 and at least June 1, 2009; and not increase rates between June 2, 2008 and June 1, 2009.
I'm skeptical of any agreements reached by Big Insurance and the lapdog TDI, particularly knowing how the insurance companies fight meaningful regulation tooth-and-nail. This could be good for consumers or it could just be window dressing (like when TMLTdoubled medical malpractice insurance premiums prior to the "tort deform" debacle of 2003 and then hailed an 11% reduction a year later – yipee).
With all these "reductions," consumers can go broke saving money.

Even the Insured Feel Strain of Health Costs
The New York Times reports that since 2001, employees' average cost of an annual health care premiums for family coverage has nearly doubled – to $3,300, up from $1,800 – while incomes have come nowhere close to keeping up. Factor in other out-of-pocket medical costs, and the portion of the average American household's income that goes toward health care has risen about 12 percent, according to the consulting and accounting firm Deloitte, and is now approaching one-fifth of the average household's spending.
But I thought health care would become more affordable once we passed tort reform…wasn't that one of the promises the insurance and medical lobbies made when they bought the Legislature and sold our rights?
Op/Ed on the problem of health insurance subrogation
Judy Kostura, an Austin lawyer with a wealth of expertise in insurance subrogation matters, has a good op/ed in today's Austin American-Statesman:
Why you should always read the fine print
Judy Kostura, LOCAL CONTRIBUTOR, Thursday, April 17, 2008
Wal-Mart's recent efforts to deprive an employee of her injury settlement highlight an unfair advantage insurance companies enjoy in the legal arena. Unfortunately, the Wal-Mart example is not an isolated incident. The legal tactic Wal-Mart used against the policyholder has recently been endorsed by the Texas Supreme Court and is being used daily against injured Texans.
Deborah Shank, an employee who was covered under Wal-Mart's group health plan, was catastrophically injured in a wreck caused by an 18-wheeler. Wal-Mart's employee health policy paid the medical expenses and the Shank family looked to the justice system to hold the trucking company accountable. A settlement from the trucking company was put in a trust account to help fund the round-the-clock care that Shank's severe brain injury requires.
Wal-Mart attempted to raid the trust account to recover the money it spent, relying on a subrogation clause in the health policy fine print. Wal-Mart backed off on its demand only after being vilified in the court of public opinion.
You never heard of subrogation? Look closely at your health insurance policy. After the pages promising benefits in exchange for your premiums, you'll find a section demanding reimbursement from you if you are hurt because of someone else's negligence.
Texas has allowed insurance companies to include subrogation clauses for years, but the insurers were reimbursed only after the injured policyholder was paid for lost wages, scarring, future medical expenses, pain and other damages. Putting the policyholder first is known as the "made whole" doctrine and required courts to interpret the fine print fairly. Allow me to use a real Austin example.
For privacy, let's call this client "Mary." One morning, Mary kissed her toddler son goodbye as she dropped him off at day care on her way to work. Minutes later, a car crossed the center stripe and smashed into Mary head-on, breaking her neck and trapping her inside a burning vehicle. Brave bystanders pulled her from the flames. Rendered a quadriplegic by the wreck and burned on her arms and legs, Mary lost her job, was divorced by her husband and spent months in a hospital.
The other driver's insurance company paid Mary $100,000, which was all of the coverage available. It was not much for a 34-year-old divorced mother who would never walk or work again, but it would help. Mary's health insurer, armed with a subrogation clause, demanded that Mary hand over the entire proceeds of the settlement. Because of the "made whole" doctrine, the legal system required Mary's health insurer to waive its subrogation interest, allowing her to keep the recovery.
Vanessa Cantu, like "Mary," was rendered a quadriplegic in a collision and was able to secure a settlement from the insurance company of those responsible for her injuries. Her settlement didn't compensate her fully for her terrible injury, but it helped. Cantu's insurer, Fortis, sued her to recover the money it had paid under the policy. The case found its way to the Texas Supreme Court. The court sided with the insurance company and wrote an opinion that eviscerated the 92-year-old "made whole" doctrine in Texas law. Cantu was the first person hurt by this wrong-headed decision, but she won't be the last. The Fortis v. Cantu case gives insurance companies a free rein to write deceptive and onerous health insurance policies, promising benefits on one page and taking them away in the fine print on another.
Insurance companies should be treated fairly, but they shouldn't be able to jump to the front of the line when settlements are paid for serious injuries. Public outcry saved Shank in the Wal-Mart case. The Texas "made whole" doctrine saved Mary, but the Texas Supreme Court has taken that away.
We need a legislative solution. Congress and the Texas Legislature should enact a strong and unambiguous "made whole" doctrine that puts Texas families first.
The Pillaging Continues
State Farm boosting home rates again, especially on coast, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports today.
"State Farm blamed the increase along the coast on the increased cost of reinsurance, which insurance companies buy to guard against the huge losses associated with hurricanes.
Galveston County residents who have both home and auto insurance through State Farm will see their rates go up by 7.9 percent, according to the Texas Department of Insurance. Those residents who have home insurance only will see their rates go up by more than 20 percent, according to the department. The department says State Farm will take in $42 million more statewide annually because of the adjustments. By contrast, the company estimates increased revenue at $35 million to $40 million.
State Farm has 29.3 percent of the home-insurance market in Texas.
In 2003, regulators ordered the company to roll back home rates by 12 percent, but it has refused and is fighting the order in court."
Medicare won't pay for hospital-caused injuries after October 1
Medicare, soon to be followed by private health insurers, will no longer pay for medical treatment of preventable injuries caused by medical errors. Medicare lists eight "hospital-caused preventable injuries," including urinary tract infections from catheters, falls, pressure sores, and embolism. After October 1st, if a Medicare patient develops one of these eight injuries, Medicare won't pay for treatment. Apparently under this plan, hospitals cannot bill the patient, either.
I don't know what to think about this. On one hand, if it truly becomes a matter of economic incentive for the hospitals, perhaps they will take more precautions to avoid these problems. On the other hand, this could lead to decreased quality of care for those patients who end up with these preventable injuries which no one is paying to treat. The number-crunchers in hospital administration might try to cut their loses by withholding appropriate and expensive care. It also seems that the patient could be caught in a tug-of-war between the hospitals and the insurers over whether or not something was preventable in the first place.
Bottom line, patients will end up getting screwed by this. Woe be to those in Texas, where the tort-deform insurance lobbyists and many of your elected representatives have just about driven the last nails into injured consumers' coffins.
Allstate's Arrogance Is Gonna Get Expensive
Allstate refuses to turn over documents in a Missouri lawsuit which pertain to company policies "allegedly" designed to shortchange clients while earning itself huge profits. Even the Missouri Supreme Court, not exactly known as a hot bed of liberal judicial activism, orders Allstate to turn over the documents. They still refuse. So the trial judge fines Allstate $25,000 per day until the turn them over. They still refuse. This has been going on since September.
The fine currently exceeds $2.4 million. Yet Allstate's lawyers say the company will not produce these records for public view no matter how much the court fines them.
This display of arrogance and contempt towards courts and the rule of law is just mind-boggling. But perhaps most disturbing is how Allsnake will stop at nothing to screw their own insureds.

The Miami Valley Fair Housing Center in Dayton has joined a national lawsuit against Bank of America and others, alleging that the defendants are not properly maintaining bank-owned foreclosed and empty properties in "working- and middle-class" minority neighborhoods.
The National Fair Housing Alliance, with 19 fair housing organizations, and two homeowners in Maryland, filed a federal lawsuit against Bank of America, N.A., Bank of America Corp., and Safeguard Properties Management, LLC, the alliance said in a release.
Plaintiffs said they investigated more than 1,600 Bank of America-owned homes in working- and middle-class white, African-American, and Latino neighborhoods.
"As owner of these homes, Bank of America is responsible for routine exterior maintenance on all of its properties," the alliance said in its announcement of the suit.
The alliance announced similar suits again Deutsche Bank in February 2018 and against Fannie Mae in December 2016.
This suit was filed Tuesday in federal court in Maryland.
A spokeswoman for Bank of America said the bank has had issues with the alliance's methods and approach.
A representative of Safeguard Properties said the company had not been served with a complaint.
"Safeguard neither condones nor tolerates acts of discrimination or business practices that would unfairly target or neglect certain neighborhoods based on location and demographics," that company said in a statement.
Jim McCarthy, president and chief executive of the Miami Valley Fair Housing Center, said in the center's local housing investigation, 55 percent of Dayton homes in minority neighborhoods were found to have "10 or more" deficiencies.
The center investigated 39 local homes, 20 of which were in African-American neighborhoods. Homes in those latter neighborhoods were neglected to "a higher degree," McCarthy said.


Bundle different resources per App Store?
Hello! We are working on an app that has a large data file as a resource in the bundle. The data in that bundle (let's say it's an encyclopedia for the sake of discussion) is in a certain language. We are going through the process of internationalization now, so we will end up with one of these large files for each language. Is it possible to bundle the app submission in such a way that the US App Store has the English file in the bundle, and the French App Store has the French file? The data files are so large that we don't want to distribute them all in th app, and we would like to avoid the situation where all users across the world get the English file by default and then have to download the file for their own language.
Re: Bundle different resources per App Store?
>Is it possible to bundle the app submission in such a way that the US App Store has the English file in the bundle, and the French App Store has the French file?
Not without having separate apps, not that such a solution is automatically viable.
How large is so large?


Painting the interior of your home can give it a fresh new look. People paint their interiors to revive tired or dirty walls, match a new interior design, brighten a dark room, or to visually change the scope of the area. Because many interiors follow what's known as a "color story," or a cohesive color design throughout the home, it's not uncommon to paint the entirety of a home interior at one time.
My son Owen and I thank you for the truly wonderful, informative and entertaining experience provided by the TOH staff, crew and trades-people at the Pro2Pro Brookline event. From Elizabeth - who welcomed us to the event, to Chris, Kevin and others who were wonderful during the orientation session (answering questions that I'm sure you have heard dozens of times before), to Charlie, Kevin, Richard, Heath (the electrician) and Thomas (the program director), you helped us Insiders to understand and appreciate the pride that you take in your work. It was refreshing. I loved the pictures and accompanying text of the event that you posted. I have to say in closing to Chris, Kevin and Thomas (in particular) you gave my son, a budding landscaper, the impetus to continue his pursuit of the trades. Kudos to you all and keep up your great work!


The 3rd round of the V8 league was at Symmons Plains and although Marcos Ambrose was a no show we still had plenty of talent to tackle the short 2.41km circuit. With only 7 turns it didn't mean that there was going to be less action.
With all the smack talk going on between Duran Nikora and Daniel Oppedisano this week Daniel was keeping to his word. In the short 5 min super session though Duran was hard to beat posting a blistering 52.217. Daniel on a 52.309 was not far behind. Mick Spiteri on his return to the League layed down a 52.577 to get him starting from P3. Nathan Tregarthen and James Delaney rounding out the top 5.
Lights are green and Mick Spiteri's ducked in behind Daniel to get the jump on Duran but he is tapped from behind and spins dropping back to the P15. Nathan Tregarthen totally over cooks his run into the hairpin and gets beached for 3 laps trying to get out pretty much ending his round there and then. Matt Pisani got a good jump who is now up into P4 behind Enda Murphy. Up front its game on as Daniel has the lead in front of Duran. Five laps in and Iain McIntosh wants a slice of P4 and Troy Czislowski is not far behind . Kevin Maartensz loves this track and it shows as he is up in P7. Garry Kingma and Greg Gavalas have a good ol ding dong battle with Spiteri trying to make up on lost ground. Nikora can't catch Oppedisano as they are locked at .8 sec's apart. Lap 12 and as Nikora was gaining on Oppedisano in the draft he locks up at the hairpin and taps him in the rear quarter. Fortunately Oppedisano kept it together but Nikora had to spin it 360 to get back on the track losing his P2 to Enda. By the end of the race though he managed to get the position back relegating Enda into 3rd and Oppedisano taking the win.
Mick Spiteri getting a blinder of a start but its Kyle Lovering absolutely smashing the first lap crossing 2.5 sec's ahead of the entire field. Greg Gavalas and Steven Wright the next across the line. Nikora cutting through the field but Oppedisano with more work to do as he is sitting in P12 after a spin on the start/finish line. Eight laps down and Kyle "The King" Lovering is still out front with a 5 second gap on the field. He has Duran on his way though. There is a great 3 way battle for p3 with Enda Murphy, Nathan Tregarthen and now Daniel Oppedisano who has managed to crawl his way back to the pointy end. Kyle after leading most of the race has ran too hot at the end of the back straight and got himself stuck in the sand trap. He watches the entire field pass by as he now has to pit as well. Tough luck for the season rookie. Nikora now out front with a handy 7 sec lead. Oppedisano makes his way back up to P2 but Tregarthen and Murphy were not letting him go. Checkered flag and Nikora takes it with Oppedisano finishing in P2. Murphy home in 3rd.
Steven wright looked like he jumped the start but was not penalised. Tregarthen again too hot into the hairpin. He was lucky not to take anyone out. Murphy out front after a pretty heavy shunt in the back of Nikora. After 5 laps the entire field are all still with 3 sec's of each other. Nikora comes to grief again and drops to P8. Oppedisano now out in front with Iain McIntosh and James Delaney in 2nd & 3rd. Steven Wright always improving with every race currently sitting in P7. Lap 12 and McIntosh is putting pressure on the leader as Nikora is nowhere to be seen. Delaney just set the fastest lap as moves into P2 looking the goods. Kevin Maartensz is first to pit on Lap 15 but it's the leader that comes in on lap 21. Will he make it to the end on his 2nd set of tyres? Duran needs to pick a different strategy if he's any chance of getting to the front. He comes in on lap 24 and re-joins in P4 20 sec's behind the leader. Murphy who is forced to pit again is now in P8.
Ten laps to go and Oppedisano is super strong out front with McIntosh and Delaney in 2nd & 3rd . Nikora is charging on fresher tyres but is not gaining enough on Delaney . Oppedisano has come to the back of Murphy to put him a lap down but McIntosh is right on Oppedisano's bumper battling for the lead. Although the both get past cleanly Oppedisano is too strong as he takes the race win and the round ahead of McIntosh and Delaney home in 3rd. Nikora comes home an exhausted 4th.

Q: How to get random generated class from/within an id? How would I select the elements that contain the class my_class within the element with id = "info_id"?
Note that the element may also have another class, which I am not selecting for.

    _blank_
    _blank_

I would try the following but as I do not know what the class will be, how could I accomplish this?
$("#info_id .class_name_goes_here")

but as I do not know the class name, how would it be possible to retrieve it?

A: I assume you know the class name and it's stored in a variable?
$("#info_id ." + className)

A: If you don't know the class of the element you're selecting for (as you've said, it's an id from the database), then you're right out of luck.  You'd stand a better chance changing the code that generates said classes.
If the HTML is exactly like what you have in your question, then you can select via element, finding the class that way:
var myClass = $("#info_id span").attr('class')

A: it sounds like the class should belong in the data portion of code:
TEST

That way there wont be addidional strings mixed in there.  Then you can do requests like:
$("div#info_id > span").on("click", function(e){
    var tblId = $(this).data("tableid");
    //do ajax request against it or whatever parsing you might need
});

also:
var classArray = $("div#info_id > span").map(function(){
    return $(this).attr("class")
});

This will return an array containing all the classes in the scope you are looking for.  You can then narrow that.  or use other jquery things.  Filter might have some uses here.

Spring-Clean Your Health: 6 Steps You Likely Forget
The mercury is rising, the trees are blooming -- and for many families, springtime means spring cleaning. But besides the broken toys and outgrown clothes, what else should you toss and update? Use these guidelines when you spring-clean to stay healthy, safe and prepared for the new season.
If you're a runner, experts recommend replacing your kicks every 350 to 550 miles, before they lose shock absorption and stability. Buy a new pair before your old pair wears out so you can break them in gradually, suggests Rudy Dressendorfer, a triathlete, American College of Sports Medicine fellow and personal trainer in Penryn, Calif. He recommends rotating in your new sneakers for a few workouts each week (or less than half of what you usually do in the old pair), especially if you're changing models or brands.
Smoke Detectors and Fire Extinguishers
You've probably heard that you should check your smoke detectors' batteries twice a year. (Use daylight saving time, when you change your clocks, as a reminder.) But even with fresh batteries, smoke detectors that are older than 10 years may not work as effectively and should be replaced, says Lorraine Carli of the National Fire Protection Agency. For fire extinguishers, "check the gauge to make sure they are fully charged," she says."If they're not, recharge or replace it." Some extinguishers are disposable, she notes, and can only be used once.
You'll likely notice when makeup starts to go bad -- any change in color, consistency, or odor is a sure sign that it's time toss a product. While most cosmetics last for at least a year, the Food and Drug Administration recommends discarding eye makeup, like mascara, every three months. They may have bacterial growth, which can lead to an eye infection. And you may need to replace all-natural brands sooner because their plant-based ingredients may breed bacteria. Be sure to keep facial tissues around too -- they can be a lifesaver, especially this season, for quick makeup touchups or help with allergies.
All medications -- both prescription and not -- should have an expiration date printed on their package or, in the case of ointments, embossed on the crimp, says Kathleen Besinque, associate professor of clinical pharmacy at the University of Southern California School of Pharmacy. If a medication isn't in its original packaging, don't use it."I advise that people review the contents of their medicine cabinet at least once a year," says Besinque. But don't flush or throw away prescription drugs, which can contaminate waterways. Visit TakeBackNetwork.com for information on how to dispose of them safely.
If you take vitamins or supplements regularly, they should run out before they expire. For those of you who don't take your vitamins daily, don't hang on to them past the expiration date, when they may begin to lose effectiveness, says Besinque. If the bottle doesn't have a date stamped on it, throw it away -- and opt for a different brand next time.
Change your toothbrush -- or if you have an electronic toothbrush, swap out the head -- every three to four months, advises the American Dental Association. That's when bristles start to wear down and aren't as effective at removing cavity-causing plaque. It's also a good idea to toss your toothbrush earlier than that if you've been sick, if you're more susceptible to infection or if the bristles become frayed.

App Provides Safe, Accessible Recovery Social Media
By The Fix staff 05/12/21 Sponsored
Better aims to bridge gaps in recovery by creating a community that works for everyone.
BETTER App merges harm reduction with the recovery community.
When Giuseppe Ganci looks at the community of people touched by substance use disorder, he sees too many divides. There are the people who are still actively using, separated from people who are sober and in recovery. The people who practice abstinence or 12 steps are separated from people who take a harm reduction approach.
Ganci wants to bring them all together. That's why he developed Better, an app designed to support people whose lives have been touched by addiction.
"We want individuals who are using drugs and those who are in recovery to have a platform to work together on improving their connection to their community," says Ganci, who is the project manager for Better, and director of community development for Last Door Recovery Society. Better is a social enterprise of Last Door.
Using the features of Better, people can support their recovery and overall wellness. The features of Better include:
My Recovery Wall
The recovery wall is a key feature of Better. It's designed to let people celebrate all aspects of their recovery, even those that are hard to face.
"This is a safe space for people to post about their recovery journeys," Ganci says. Some aspects of recovery — like fear of relapse — might not be suitable for posting on Facebook or other mainstream media. Better's Recovery Wall gives people space to make those posts and get support.
It's also a space for people, including professionals, who can't be open about their recovery on other social media. It's also more positive — rather than doom scrolling Facebook, people can see posts and inspiration about recovery.
One of the most unique aspects of Better is Safety Net. Safety Net is a global overdose prevention tool. People who are using drugs alone can share their location with someone else on the app. Their safety net partner can activate an alarm. If the person using doesn't turn the alarm off, it may be an indication of an overdose. The volunteer can call emergency services for them, since they know the person's direct location.
"This is a way to make a bridge so that people who are in recovery can support people who are still using," Ganci says.
My Recovery Capital Score
This aspect of Better allows people to gamify their recovery, providing some extra motivation. Users can earn recovery capital by doing things like attending digital meetings, journaling or posting on the Recovery Wall.
Since Recovery Capital Scores are public, this is another way of building community.
"Your friends will know if your points are going down," says Ganci. "It's going to help people reach out to people when they need help."
Marketplace allows people in recovery to support other people in the recovery community.
"There's no charge, users can put businesses up for free," Ganci says.
Marketplace also lets people search for sober roommates, and sell or donate items to people who are newly in recovery.
"It's always a struggle being a newcomer," Ganci says.
My Recovery Plan
My Recovery Plan is a one-stop shop for keeping track of your short-term and long-term goals, and tracking your progress.
Support Circles
Support Circles allow group chats for step groups, friend networks, or even alumni groups for treatment centers.
People Nearby and LGBTQ Support
These features allow people to search for people in recovery when they're traveling. They can make new friends and ask about the local recovery community. The LGBTQ2s Support allows people to connect with people in recovery who have shared values and lifestyles.
Recovery Celebrations
Recovery Celebrations allows you to congratulate people who are celebrating recovery milestones that day, as well as sharing your own accomplishments.
Speaker Tapes and Coaching
Users have access to over 15,000 speaker tapes. The "Higher Power" option allows the app to auto play what you need to hear in that moment. Coaching allows people to connect directly with a recovery coach.
This section allows people to connect with their home meeting, without friending or following people on mainstream social media to do so.
"It takes away the whole barriers to access in a meeting," Ganci says.
Step Work
Step work features personal growth virtual exercises, decision-making guidance, 12-step exercises to help you live in the solution, and a daily journal.
After 13 years in recovery himself and years of working in the recovery industry, Ganci is excited about launching an app that will help more people thrive in recovery, as well as helping others stay safe until they're ready to change their habits around drugs and alcohol.
"I can see how social media has helped recovery become normal, but I also see how not everyone can participate in that conversation about recovery," he said. Better provides a solution. "It's all about making recovery attractive. The days of the abstinence community sitting on one side of the room and harm reduction people on the other side of the room are over."

Raising Rock Bottom


A commitment to collaboration involves more than the overhaul of a specific process here or there. For many businesses, buy-in for a collaboration tool represents something larger than a software purchase or a fixed workflow; it represents a foundational, philosophical shift in the way they work.
Perhaps a business has newly embraced "future of work"-y ideas like flexible schedules, remote work, flattened org charts and so on. Perhaps a business has been striving for decades to disrupt the status quo, but was left waiting for technology to catch up with its philosophy.
We've seen some powerful examples of the ways that iMeet Central can help companies make or reinforce these changes to company culture.
Competition for employees' attention spans is fierce. "Intranet" isn't likely to make many lists of the biggest tech buzzwords for 2015, but a well-designed intranet can make a huge difference for a business looking to keep its big picture front and center.
Traditional org charts and territorial bridge trolls who want you out of their department's business are, well, bad for business. Collaboration tools help companies leverage their biggest asset – which, as long as the company isn't terrible at HR and recruiting, is its people.
Rob Boman, creative director at Javelin Marketing Group, said that iMeet Central offers "a huge wave in the democratization of creative teams," saying it's offered a path for creative teams to cast a wider net and solicit ideas and opinions from people who normally may not have been given a seat at the table, while at the same time giving creatives the control to avoid a too-many-cooks sort of situation.
RAPP uses iMeet Central to crowdsource, inviting their internal users to help solve problems and generate ideas. With offices around the globe, RAPP's hive mind is quite an impressive hive.
"We'll generate the ideas, pick the best ideas and build campaigns and solutions [around them]," director of program management Suellen Anderson told us.
It can be a challenge enough to foster a thriving and collaborative company culture in a single office; the challenge deepens as you add multiple offices, disparate time zones, remote and contract workers, and branches of the company that never interact with the other branches.
CareerBuilder has hundreds of partner sales reps and managers working in a variety of local markets. iMeet Central offers a way for these employees to share information and build relationships with colleagues who otherwise may have been out of sight, out of mind.
Sharing knowledge through iMeet Central workspaces also cuts out the middleman and reduces inefficiency.
In a presentation at a previous Collabosphere, Pinkberry detailed how iMeet Central helped their expanding number of stores connect across the geographical divide. They demonstrated a number of fun ways to encourage contributions and build morale, reinforcing that each local team member was part of a much larger global picture. iMeet Central also helped support a shift from one-way communication to two-way communication, giving corporate headquarters a better way to hear from local stores, in addition to giving those stores an easy, transparent way of communicating and learning from one another.


Remember Just Cause? We loved its focus on hi-octane, adrenaline-fuelled, over-the-top antics. In a sea of same-old shooters, Eidos's free-roaming stunt-'em-up was a breath of fresh air, five thousand feet up or speeding across the waters of tropical paradise San Esperito. In terms of structure though, its uninspired roster of repetitive side-missions and an all-too-brief story mode left a sour taste for those hankering for something more than an enormous boys-own playground.
Now though, CIA black ops agent Rico Rodriguez is back in Just Cause 2. Several years on from events in the first game, Rico is on hiatus, soaking up the sun and sea in South America. His vacation's cut short though when old partner Maria Kane calls for Rico's assistance in tracking down and killing his friend and mentor Tom Sheldon, gone rogue and in hiding on the island of Panau, located in the Malay Archipelago.
Just Cause 2 promises to offer more than a simple story update though, with developer Avalanche Studios intent on creating a sequel to please fans and detractors alike. The original game's healthy does of humour and daredevil escapades make a welcome return, but part two also seeks to address common complaints of Rico's first outing. Most notably, Avalanche is concentrating its efforts on improving combat and enemy AI, offering a much bigger dose of meaningful, rewarding content, plus integrating those all-important insane stunts more tightly with Rico's basic skill set.
Now, for instance, enemies are much more than simple cannon fodder. Avalanche has incorporated a sophisticated planning system, enabling intelligent responses from opponents to your own actions. Dynamically adapting, your pursuers can use their surroundings more tactically, taking cover, corner-flanking and commandeering vehicles. What's more, enemies can communicate with one another, gathering squads, organising guards for tactically significant installations or even calling for reinforcements, whether that be parachute units or helicopter attacks.
With more challenging opponents on hand, Avalanche is also overhauling Just Cause's combat engine, its Hybrid Locking System with independent aiming reticule enables the targeting of specific limbs on your foes. What's more, Rico has a whole new arsenal at his disposal this time around. Alongside laser-controlled rockets, Just Cause 2 features a one-handed grenade launcher, detachable mounted mini-gun and sticky remote-triggered C4 – the last of which can even be deployed while in the air, ideal for impromptu parachute-bound bomb runs. Even better, both weapons and vehicles are now full-upgradeable, with over 2,000 parts at your disposal.
Speaking of vehicles, Avalanche has revealed a handful of this sequel's more esoteric forms of transport, including jumbo jets and something suspiciously like a mobile home. Whatever your ride, Just Cause 2 sports a significantly upgraded driving system - differences between the handling of vehicles is now much more evident, plus ground materials now affect the performance of your car. With Panau home to a diverse number of climate zones – from snowy peaks to swampland and arid deserts to lush rainforests – this second addition is particularly important. You'll need to think carefully about your choice of transportation if you're to maximise its performance on a particular type of terrain.

Q: C#7 Out Variables with Tuples Is it possible to use the C#7 feature of out variables when the out variables is a Tuple?
The exact scenario I have is this:
private readonly Dictionary<int, (bool, DateTime)> _dictionary;

public void SomeMethod(int number)
{
    if (this._dictionary.TryGetValue(number, out (bool isTrue, DateTime timestamp)) // what is the correct syntax?
        // use isTrue and timestamp here
}

If this is possible, I can't seem to find the correct syntax.
Clarification: I would like to be able to deconstruct directly into isTrue and timestamp rather than having to create another variable.

A: Consider the following code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace ConsoleApp1 {
class Program {
    private static Dictionary<int, (bool, DateTime)> _dictionary;

    public static void SomeMethod(int number) {
        if (_dictionary.TryGetValue(number, out (bool isTrue, DateTime timestamp) booltime)) {
            Console.WriteLine($"Found it: {booltime.isTrue}, {booltime.timestamp}");
            }
        else {
            Console.WriteLine($"{number} Not Found");
            }
        }

    static void Main(string[] args) {
        _dictionary = new Dictionary<int, (bool, DateTime)>();
        _dictionary.Add(0, (true, DateTime.Now));
        SomeMethod(1);
        SomeMethod(0);
        }
    }
}

It will produce the following output:
1 Not Found
Found it: True, 6/26/2018 4:56:59 PM

You can get a tuple back as an out parameter by either defining the variable within the call parameters or by defining a separate variable of the needed type.  You can also use the var keyword like so:
if (_dictionary.TryGetValue(number, out var booltime)) {
    Console.WriteLine($"Found it: {booltime.Item1}, {booltime.Item2}");
    }

Note, that if you do this you will not have the named tuple properties, and you will have to use Item1 and Item2.

A: Yes you can! But you're also trying to deconstruct the tuple, which cannot be done there.
Try something like this:
public void SomeMethod(int number)
{
    if (this._dictionary.TryGetValue(number, out var item))
    {
        var (isTrue, timestamp) = item;
    }
}

You might want to (or should) name the values of the tuple:
private readonly Dictionary<int, (bool isTrue, DateTime timestamp)> _dictionary;

Then you can use the value names:
public void SomeMethod(int number)
{
    if (this._dictionary.TryGetValue(number, out var item))
    {
        // use item.isTrue;
        // use item.timestamp;
    }
}

Q: R ggplot increase points by size and by color for same variable I have a dataset and I have 3 variables. One of them I want to scale by size and color but unfortunately it does color the points but instead it places a black point on top of a colored point.
example:
 ggplot(df, aes(x=day_of_week, y=light, color = speed_limit,  size=speed_limit))  + geom_point()

and the out_put:

Any suggestions how can I merge the color and size to 1 so that they grow?

A: Here is a way to do it - create a discrete variable and plot both color & size using the variables with manual scales
Note that this end up not continous scales. In my personal experience, I found that create bucket for size & colors would help to have better control over the colors and better visualization especially in the data contains outliers.
# Create some demo data
df <- data.frame(
  day_of_week = rep(c("Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday"), 5),
  light = rep(c("Daylight", "Darkness - no lighting", "Darkness - light unlit", "Darkness - light lit",
    "Darkness - lighting unknown"), 7),
  speed_limit = runif(35, 20, 70)
)

# Using ggplot2 for obvious reason
library(ggplot2)

# create the discrete variables using cut
df$speed_limit_cut <- cut(df$speed_limit, breaks = c(20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70),
  include.lowest = TRUE, right = TRUE)
levels_count <- length(levels(df$speed_limit_cut))

# Create the colors scale coresponded to the levels in cut
color_scales_fn <- colorRampPalette(c("#142D47", "#54AEF4"))
manual_color <- color_scales_fn(levels_count)
names(manual_color) <- levels(df$speed_limit_cut)
# Create the sizes scale
manual_size <- seq(1, by = 1, length.out = levels_count)
names(manual_size) <- levels(df$speed_limit_cut)

# Plot using the new variable
ggplot(df, aes(x=day_of_week, y=light, color = speed_limit_cut,  size=speed_limit_cut)) +
  geom_point() +
  scale_size_manual(values = manual_size) +
  scale_color_manual(values = manual_color)

Here is the output

Not even maiming and killing patients can stop some Florida plastic surgeons from continuing to operate
Florida plastic surgeons are maiming and even killing patients. They're not only getting away with it, but they're also still performing surgery, according to an investigation by USA Today.
Many Florida doctors who perform plastic surgery lack malpractice insurance. That means that not only do the victims of a botched procedure never get compensated, the doctors can keep operating, thanks to bankruptcy laws.
Nearly one in five plastic surgeons certified by the state of Florida don't have malpractice insurance — coverage that Florida and most states don't require of doctors. A doctor's annual medical malpractice insurance in the United States can cost $50,000 to $200,000 a year, according to Forbes.
Investigation reveals dangerous practices
Operating without this insurance can enable doctors with repeated medical malpractice cases to stay in business without having to pay higher insurance premiums.
Florida established stricter plastic surgery regulations in June 2019 only after a separate investigation by USA Today and the Naples Daily News revealed dangerous practices in two clinics overseen by the same doctor. Eight of the clinics' patients died after surgery and nearly a dozen more needed to be hospitalized.
Still, Florida's oversight of plastic surgeons leaves unanswered questions. Doctors in The Sunshine State only self-report whether they have medical malpractice insurance. The Florida Department of Health does not verify whether they are telling the truth. Nor does the department confirm that doctors without insurance have other funds available to pay claims that arise.
Even when patients can find an attorney willing to take their case and manage to get court judgments for their injuries and financial setbacks, they may be unable to collect.
The Florida Financial Responsibility statute requires physicians to pay judgments up to $250,000. Federal bankruptcy law creates a loophole in which physicians instead can file for bankruptcy and avoid paying victimized patients. So, Florida patients have been left paying for uninsured doctors' errors.
Patients left to pay for uninsured doctors' mistakes
USA Today described cases of victims suffering:
Punctured bowels
Abdominal incisions that broke and resulted in infection
Other emotional damage
A new law was scheduled to take effect this year. It comes in response to plastic surgery gone wrong. The new law authorizes Florida to suspend or restrict a surgery center's operations. That's if it determines the facility poses an immediate public threat. It also mandates that the center and the doctors meet financial responsibility requirements.
The law prevents centers that have had their registrations revoked from quickly opening another office under a new name with the same owners or directors. That practice had prevented patients from discovering a center's reputation and history.
Florida has a status as a national destination for discount plastic surgery procedures. That status exists despite cases of plastic surgeons maiming and killing patients, doctors lacking medical malpractice insurance and bankruptcy courts bailing them out.
What to do if plastic surgery goes wrong
Plastic surgery is a huge business. Americans spend billions of dollars a year on collagen and botox injections, breast implants, buttock lifts, and facial procedures.
Over 17.7 million cosmetic procedures were done in the U.S. in 2018, nearly a quarter-million more than in 2017, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. The society claims over 7,000 members. They say they comprise over 94 percent of all board-certified plastic surgeons in the U.S.

Nietzsche's Jewish Problem
Between Anti-Semitism and Anti-Judaism
Robert C. Holub
Princeton, NJ:
, October
For more than a century, Nietzsche's views about Jews and Judaism have been subject to countless polemics. The Nazis infamously fashioned the philosopher as their anti-Semitic precursor, while in the past thirty years the pendulum has swung in the opposite direction. The increasingly popular view today is that Nietzsche was not only completely free of racist tendencies but also was a principled adversary of anti-Jewish thought. Nietzsche's Jewish Problem offers a definitive reappraisal of the controversy, taking the full historical, intellectual, and biographical context into account. As Robert Holub shows, a careful consideration of all the evidence from Nietzsche's published and unpublished writings and letters reveals that he harbored anti-Jewish prejudices throughout his life.
Nietzsche's Jewish Problem demonstrates how this is so despite the apparent paradox of the philosopher's well-documented opposition to the crude political anti-Semitism of the Germany of his day. As Holub explains, Nietzsche's "anti-anti-Semitism" was motivated more by distaste for vulgar nationalism than by any objection to anti-Jewish prejudice.
A richly detailed account of a controversy that goes to the heart of Nietzsche's reputation and reception, Nietzsche's Jewish Problem will fascinate anyone interested in philosophy, intellectual history, or the history of anti-Semitism.
Robert C. Holub is Ohio Eminent Scholar and Professor of German at Ohio State University and former chancellor of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. The author of several books on nineteenth- and twentieth-century German literary, cultural, and intellectual history, he is also the editor of editions of Nietzsche's On the Genealogy of Morals and Beyond Good and Evil.
anti-Semitism, nationalism


I thought I already did this! Wow. Okay, here we go.
Yarn and fiber clubs have all been received, and June's colorway was Summer Evenings of Longing and Fireflies. Possibly my favorite colorway thus far, but I'd love to hear your thoughts. Both the yarn and the fiber were dyed on MCN bases (80/10/10 merino, cashmere, nylon), which means all luxury, all the time.
And here's the fiber club! I've enjoyed seeing this spun up so far, and hopefully I'll be able to share photos of it in the near future.
I've knit and crocheted several swatches of the yarn club version, which you can see at the end of this post. I made sure to dye an extra four ounces for myself, which I'm glad I did, because... I bought an e-spinner! It's still boxed up at the moment, but I'll take photos as soon as it's out and setup. There was an amazingly nice woman selling her Vespera XXL, and I had no choice but to swoop in and buy that sucker up! I briefly owned the smaller Vespera, but the XXL comes with a hand control and each bobbin can hold up to a pound of fiber. A POUND!
I can't wait to...get good...at...spinning. Oh no. I'm going to hope that my need for immediate perfection doesn't rear its head. Any tips?

In May I made the plunge to join the Hip Kit Club. In the past years I have purchased kits from a few kit clubs to try them out and see what I liked. Hip Kit turned out to be my favorite! I ordered the March 2017 main kit and the April 2017 embellishment kit. My first layout with the March kit features a lot of the Oh My Heart Collection by Paige Taylor Evans for Pink Paislee and I made it for the weekly challenge on the Hip Kit Club Facebook Page.
I started out with a background with watercolors and splatters and then got to work layering! I love how it turned out!

Search engine optimization (SEO) is evolving in 2018 as Google now says 100 percent of its queries are processed through its artificial intelligence (AI) program, RankBrain. RankBrain was actually introduced in October of 2015, but it wasn't until last year that Google confirmed it is among the top three most influential ranking factors in its overall larger algorithm.
Rankbrain is an AI-powered tool designed to try and understand user intent, to understand what a user is really searching for and present those results. RankBrain is all about making the user experience more relevant. It looks at every user's search terms, then compares these to billions of other searches and assumes the intent or the interpretation of what the user wants to see.
It is essentially trying to get rid of all the tools and reviews that can be used to produce fake results. RankBrain is trying to get at the truth.
In 2016, RankBrain only accounted for 15 percent of Google's search queries, it now handles all of them. It is a major change in the SEO world. It means the days of keyword stuffing are over. RanlBrain has the power to determine whether or not a site is credible. This means marketers need to be making changes to get the most from their search marketing efforts and budget.
There is no set formula or template for satisfying RankBrain. It operates on closely kept inputs and is updated every 18 hours. To rise in Google's rankings requires being authentic in all aspects of a site's content and design. A one-size-fits-all approach will not work anymore, and requires a more thoughtful, natural way to think and write about a company's products and services.
Think Hard about Keyword Intent. Keywords are still very important. Companies should still focus on them, but also look at what is going on behind the scenes with them. Practitioners need to be asking what users are really searching for. For example, what does a user want who searched "marketing in Chicago"?
Finding intent begins by running keywords through an experience-based lens. Think about how you Google things and the results you expect. And also remember when you're entering keywords to take a look at the bottom of the page for some Google hints in the related searches list.
Create Niche Content. Once it's understood what users are really meaning, companies can use this as a platform to generate authentic content. You may come to learn that users searching "marketing in Chicago" are looking for tactics specific to this city and not necessarily professional marketing services. Providing educational content around Chicago marketing might include a blog about upcoming neighborhood festivals or summer park concerts that offer unique marketing opportunities for this area. This has the potential to generate a lead, who will be open to buying at a later time.
Also, in a world of "me too" products and services focusing on your niche is now more important. Less generalized messaging and more on the specifics of what makes your business thrive is critical to convey through content, images, videos and design in consideration of RankBrain's tendency toward natural, authentic-sounding sites.
Tap Emotions and Optimize for Engagement. Emotions are a powerful tool to get users clicking. Test out different headlines on social posts or PPC ads linked to your content and see what works, then use these as SEO titles. Companies need to try and put emotional triggers together with keywords in their titles and descriptions to get a higher than average click-through rate (CTR). A high CTR indicates to RankBrain that the content is relevant.
Now you need to keep them on your site too. Optimization needs to be occurring on every page of your website. Conversion rates in this instance means looking at bounce rates and time on a site to gauge engagement. Higher engagement correlates to higher relevance, which is what RankBrain is all about.
RankBrain wants your company to be the best version of itself and to clearly communicate that through the content it produces. Be natural, be authentic and remember to do this around a sound strategy and you'll be found by RankBrain.

Maricopa County Sheriff Penzone calls for audit of MCSO arsenal after police shooting
Sheriff Paul Penzone has called for an audit of the agency's arsenal.
Maricopa County Sheriff Penzone calls for audit of MCSO arsenal after police shooting Sheriff Paul Penzone has called for an audit of the agency's arsenal. Check out this story on azcentral.com: https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/phoenix/2018/11/01/sheriff-paul-penzone-calls-mcso-weapon-inventory-after-fatal-police-shooting/1850708002/

Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone on Thursday said he has called for an in-depth audit of the agency's arsenal after he found out that a firearm used by a man killed in a shootout with police had been unaccounted for in a previous inventory review.
Penzone's announcement comes after Phoenix police, which is investigating Monday's fatal shooting on Interstate 17, determined Arnaldo Caraveo, 27, was in possession of two stolen Maricopa County Sheriff's Office firearms: a rifle and a long gun. Caraveo had a history of trafficking in stolen property, some of which may have included firearms, according to court records.
"I have ordered a second complete audit of all weapons, to include photographic documentation of each weapon," Penzone said in a statement.
During a press conference Wednesday, Penzone said that 29 weapons were identified either as stolen or missing from the Sheriff's Office sometime between 2010 and 2015, according to a 2016 audit completed under former Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

But on Thursday, Penzone clarified in a statement that one of the two firearms found in Caraveo's vehicle had been previously unaccounted for MCSO's 2016 review.
Arpaio told The Arizona Republic on Thursday that his office took responsibility once he found out about the missing or stolen weapons.
"My only comment is that when some weapons weren't accounted for, my staff took appropriate action," Arpaio said. "I'm not sheriff anymore. I'm not privy to all the files, and I'm not privy to the investigation."
Penzone didn't say how Caraveo, who was shot dead by Department of Public Safety troopers after he injured two of them, may have come to possess the weapons.
The sheriff also hasn't said if the two weapons recovered this week had originated from a federal program that hands out surplus military gear to local law enforcement, colloquially known as the 1033 Program.
In 2015, President Barack Obama had limited the type of weapons — aircraft, wheeled tactical vehicles, mobile command-and-control units, battering rams and riot gear — that the Department of Defense could give to local police departments through the 1033 Program.

President Donald Trump reversed Obama's order in August 2017.
Sgt. Joaquin Enriquez, a Sheriff's Office spokesman, said Penzone wouldn't make any further comments until the audit is complete.
In 2014, then-Sheriff Arpaio admitted that nine firearms his office received through the 1033 Program had gone missing. Arpaio said the agency picked up about 200 weapons from the surplus program shortly after he was elected in 1993, and 20 to 22 had vanished over the years. Some of those were later recovered.
Past criminal history
A search-warrant affidavit filed in Maricopa County Superior Court shows that Mesa police had received a tip from a confidential informant in October 2012 indicating Caraveo was "involved in the trafficking of stolen property and was responsible for organizing burglary crews to obtain property to sell, with an emphasis on obtaining firearms and high-end electronics."
Officers did not confiscate any weapons during the search of Caraveo's property, according to the search warrant return, but they did seize other items, such as electronics, drug paraphernalia and some marijuana.

Caraveo, who has two sons and a daughter, was sentenced in 2014 to three years in the Arizona Department of Corrections for second-degree burglary and aggravated assault. He was released In April 2017.
Police arrested and jailed Caraveo again Sept. 21 in Mesa after officers pulled him over for speeding. When they stopped him, he ran from the car, stumbled and fell under a bush, court records said. Police took him into custody and found two handguns nearby, including one that was stolen out of Phoenix. He was arrested on suspicion of theft, possession of drug paraphernalia and weapons violations. The case was pending in Maricopa County Superior Court before he was killed Monday.
The shooting involving Caraveo was one of two police shootings that day. In Tempe, police there shot and killed a man who injured two officers who were attempting to serve a protection order on him.
The I-17 shootout happened at about 5 p.m. Monday. It started when Mesa police and DPS troopers began pursuing Caraveo after he fled an incident that began in downtown Mesa.
Sgt. Vince Lewis of Phoenix Police provides information about a police shooting on I-17 Monday. Jack Lechich, Arizona Republic
DPS had joined Monday's effort to stop Caraveo and declared a pursuit as the vehicles headed toward downtown Phoenix on the freeway.
With other motorists inching by to the left, and oncoming traffic lanes becoming ever more congested on the freeway, a DPS trooper used a precision immobilization technique — better known as a PIT maneuver — to ram the back of Caraveo's truck on northbound I-17 near Seventh Street.
The truck spun 180 degrees clockwise as law-enforcement officers surrounded the truck.
Caraveo exchanged gunfire with five Mesa police officers and three DPS troopers, two of whom were injured by shards of glass. Caraveo was shot an undisclosed number of times and died at the scene.

Model loses hands, feet to infection
A 20-YEAR-OLD model who was a finalist in Brazil's Miss World contest has had her hands and feet amputated after a severe urinary infection.
Mariana Bridi da Costa was sedated in a hospital in Serra, in the southeastern state of Espirito Santo, and on artificial respiration following the procedures, according to several newspapers.
Bridi was diagnosed with a infection by the Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacterium, which can often prove fatal.
Septicemia set in in her limbs, cutting off circulation and forcing doctors to amputate.
Her boyfriend, Thiago Simoes, told the G1 news website that Bridi fell ill on December 30, but was initially misdiagnosed with kidney stones.
The infection quickly spread, causing her to go back to hospital for tests that revealed her condition. Surgeons had to act to remove her damaged hands and feet.
Her father, Agnaldo da Costa, told the Folha de S Paulo newspaper that "the concern is over her life.''
Bridi twice made it into the national finals for the Miss World contest, and last year travelled to China to participate in the Miss Bikini International pageant, G1 said.


The Calming Reflex: the automatic reset switch to stop crying of any baby in the first few months of life.
The 5 "S's": the simple steps (swaddling, side/stomach position, shushing, swinging and sucking) that trigger the calming reflex. For centuries, parents have tried these methods only to fail because, as with a knee reflex, the calming reflex only works when it is triggered in precisely the right way. Unlike other books that merely list these techniques Dr. Karp teaches parents exactly how to do them, to guide cranky infants to calm and easy babies to serenity in minutes…and help them sleep longer too.
The Cuddle Cure: the perfect mix the 5 "S's" that can soothe even the most colicky of infants.
* Why do most babies get much more upset in the evening?
* How can a parent calm a baby—in mere minutes?
* Can babies be spoiled?
* When should a parent of a crying baby call the doctor?
* How can a parent get their baby to sleep a few hours longer?
