The most Cornish flash mob ever surprises shoppers
The event marks the biggest festival of its kind in the world
Sign up for our Truro newsletter and you'll never miss a big story again
It was arguably the most Cornish flash mob ever staged.
As a brass band struck up on the steps of Truro Cathedral on Saturday surprising Easter shoppers, dozens of singers from all over the county suddenly drifted on to High Cross and blasted into a rousing rendition of "national anthem" Trelawny.
It wasn't the start of another Cornish uprising but a special, spontaneous event to promote the forthcoming Cornwall International Male Choral Festival.
The singers also performed a new song written specifically for the event.

Song for the World was composed by the festival's artistic director, the renowned musical supremo Gareth Churcher, with lyrics provided by Bob Willmott, to celebrate the 2019 gathering of international choirs who will arrive next week from May 2 to May 6 for the biggest event of its kind in the world.
"Singing and music and celebrating Cornwall's internationally-reaching male choral tradition is what we're all about," said Gareth. "It seems only right after 16 years of this fantastic festival that we should have our own anthem – and our singing flash mob event was a really delightful way of launching it on the world."

I'm so tired that I'm cross eyed but please indulge me for a short story. A few years ago I volunteered to help with recording the audiobiographies of many of the millworkers that worked in Lewiston at the turn-of-the-century. A generation that was dying. Most of them were millworkers of Franco American descent. Their various stories brought both laughs and tears to those of us recording their lives. Today one particular story came to mind.
Jean and Yvonne both worked at the Bates Mill, Jean a machine operator and Yvonne a " bobbin girl". As a bobbin girl, Yvonne wore a long cotton dress every day and slid along the hardwood floors under the machines on her back lubricating the bearings while machines were operating. They were paid on piece-work and didn't stop the machines for maintenance. The bobbin girls were small enough to slid under these looms while operating with only inches of clearance to the whirring and deafening looms. She was 14 years old when she started and worked 12 hours a day six days a week. After every shift she ran home five blocks away to exchange shoes with her twin sister as they shared a single pair of shoes typically making her sister late for her shift. After meeting Jean they moved back to rural Quebec and married at 17. For their honeymoon they traveled back to Lewiston to visit family and friends, it was the only vacation they could afford. Both ventured out one day while there to visit friends. Jean went nearly insane when Yvonne didn't return after more than 24 hours. When she went back to the mill to visit with the " girls" the supervisor indulged her to fill in for a vacant bobbin girl who was sick. She knew what a hardship this was on the other girls and agreed, working a double shift (24 hrs). She returned to the apartment the next day, her new " travel clothes" and hair covered head to toe in cotton fibers. Her new husband cried and all was well once again…..True story as told by Yvonne.
Today I returned to our office after a very long and tiring day. Several of our team was still there after about a 12 hour day. A core group has worked these long days consecutively without break for couple weeks doing a massive software conversion that will be a huge asset to our customers. While not covered in fibers they have the same commitment Yvonne did to her "girls". Gawd…sometimes they bring tears to my eyes. An inspiration and extraordinary bunch they all are. Thank you….


SRAM is one of random access memories. Each byte or word has an address and can be accessed randomly. SRAM has three different modes supported. Each function is described below with Truth Table. STANDBY MODE Device enters standby mode when deselected (CS# HIGH). The input and output pins (I/O0-15) are placed in a high impedance state. CMOS input in this mode will maximize saving power. WRITE MODE Write operation issues with Chip selected (CS#) and Write Enable (WE#) input LOW. The input and output pins (I/O0- 15) are in data input mode. Output buffers are closed during this time even if OE# is LOW. UB# and LB# enables a byte write feature. By enabling LB# LOW, data from I/O pins (I/O0 through I/O7) are written into the location specified on the address pins. And with UB# being LOW, data from I/O pins (I/O8 through I/O15) are written into the location. READ MODE Read operation issues with Chip selected (CS# LOW) and Write Enable (WE#) input HIGH. When OE# is LOW, output buffer turns on to make data output. Any input to I/O pins during READ mode is not permitted. UB# and LB# enables a byte read feature. By enabling LB# LOW, data from memory appears on I/O0-7. And with UB# being LOW, data from memory appears on I/O8-15. In the READ mode, output buffers can be turned off by pulling OE# HIGH. In this mode, internal device operates as READ but I/Os are in a high impedance state. Since device is in READ mode, active current is used. TRUTH TABLE.


Aligarh Hindu Mahasabha, through its Hindu New Year calendar issued recently, said the world famous Mughal-era monument Taj Mahal, the holy Muslim site of Mecca, several mosques and Mughal period monuments are actually temples.
The calendar claimed that the Taj Mahal was originally named 'Tejo Mahalaya temple'.
The Mecca in Saudi Arabia was originally known as 'Macceshwar Mahadev temple'.
Further, the calendar says the Qutb Minar as was actually the 'Vishnu Stambh'.

Silent Witness: Iron tea pot used to hold mother's remains
by Miho Kuwajima, Staff Writer
Rust on the tea pot's iron surface conveys the fact that 74 years have now passed since the atomic bombing. Masaaki Sakai, who was 17 back then, dug this pot out of the ruins of his home in Noboricho (now part of Naka Ward). He also gathered up the remains of his mother Yoshino, who was then 41 and had regularly used the pot prior to the A-bomb attack. He then used the pot as a makeshift urn for holding his mother's remains.
On August 6, 1945, Mr. Sakai, then a first-year student at Hiroshima Municipal Higher Technical School (now the School of Engineering at Hiroshima University), experienced the atomic bombing while at school in Shinonomecho (part of present-day Minami Ward). He tried to head home right away, but had to return to school because the flames that had broken out in the city center blocked his path. The next day he managed to reach the wreckage of his home.
The Noboricho district, where his house once stood, was located about 1.1 kilometers from the hypocenter, and the area was engulfed in flames after the bombing. Mr. Sakai's home was burned down, too. Yoshino was at home when the bomb was dropped and was apparently unable to escape after being trapped under wreckage. His two younger sisters, Sumiko and Michiko, were students at Hiroshima Jogakuin Girls' High School (now called Hiroshima Jogakuin Junior and Senior High School) and were also killed in the bombing at the worksite where they had been mobilized. Their remains were never found.
After the war, Mr. Sakai lived in Nagasaki, his hometown. He continued to keep with him the items that were imbued with the memories of his mother and sisters. But he may have considered his advancing age, and decided to leave these things to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum in order to hand down their lives to the next generation. So in October 2000, the year he turned 73, he paid a visit to the museum and donated six items that he had long kept in his care, including the report of the autopsy conducted on his mother. The next month, he donated the iron tea pot, too.

Q: Razborov's response to Almost Natural Proofs This post is about Natural Proofs barrier in computational complexity.
There are two recent papers related to this. They are:

*

*Amplifying lower bounds by means of self-reducibility by Eric Allender and Michal Koucký,

*Almost-natural proofs by Timothy Chow.
Alexander Razborov mentioned them at the end of his talk in the first Barriers Workshop at IAS in 2009. The video of his talk is available here. He mentioned that a possible way to respond to these would be to make the largeness condition relative. So here is my question:

Has there been any progress on this?

In the 1980's, I had the great privilege of working as a staff writer for the Handbook Of Texas published by the Texas State Historical Association. This massive encyclopedia of Texas history is anything but a handbook. The print edition contains more than 23,000 articles on the people, places and events of Texas past in seven huge volumes. Fortunately, this vast wealth of information is available free online at http://www.tsha.utexas.edu/handbook/online/. Here you will find first class historical research county-by-county and place-by-place on just about any Texas topic. It is a goldmine of information for teachers, students, writers and anyone interested in Texas history. More than 3,000 folks from every discipline and background contributed to the research and writing.
Like anything written by us humans, history is subject to mistakes, errors, viewpoints and individual agendas. Certainly, the Handbook is not flawless. But the research and writing was done with great care and careful editing. Footnotes were required on every paragraph and the research was meticulously reviewed. There are errors but at the same time, the online edition has a link for corrections and corrections are continuously made.

Can You Believe This Sheet?
★ Actress Emmy Rossum ("Phantom Of the Opera") has become the latest celebrity burglary victim after thieves ransacked her LA home while she's working in NYC. Her housekeeper discovered the break-in and 2 empty safes when showing up to clean the West Los Angeles home. Insiders say $150,000-worth of antique jewelry has been taken. It's also claimed Rossum made the smash & grab really easy … she left the written combinations to the safes right next to them.

★ Is Brad Pitt dating Sandra Bullock? A new report claims that's the case. Their hookup was reportedly instigated by mutual friend George Clooney, who apparently believes they would make a great couple. This comes just as things between Brad and ex Angelina Jolie have calmed down and they're back on speaking terms. But don't look for a 'Pittlock' celeb couple anytime soon. According to "People", Pitt is currently content with the single life.

★ A year ago, producers dropped 23 strangers into a remote area of Scotland to build a self-sufficient community away from technology. Contestants included a doctor, a chef, a paramedic, a life coach and more. They were given livestock, hunting gear, and items for cooking. Their saga about starting a society from scratch was set to air on UK's Channel 4 as the reality TV show "Eden". And it did … briefly. "Eden" got axed after 4 episodes. But most of the contestants kept going, unaware no one was watching. It's not all bad news for the 10 people who stuck it out. Channel 4 says the show is returning to screens later this year.

COOL CATS:
Dog lovers will often admit to cat lovers that cats are less stinky, don't need walking, and are arguably more intelligent but – they point out – felines are antisocial and fundamentally selfish. Seems that's just not so. A new Oregon State University study finds that cats not only enjoy human company … they'll pick it over food. The researchers took 50 cats from shelters and people's homes and deprived them of food, human contact, scent, and toys for a few hours. They then introduced them to stimuli within those 4 categories and most of the cast chose human socialization, even ahead of food. (So, it seems that the love you get from little Molly is much more than just 'cupboard love'.)

DO YOU RINSE YOUR LEMONS?
Those who rinse think it's disgusting that people wouldn't, and non-rinsers think it's a big waste of time. So what do experts say? The Center for Food Safety says rinse. In addition to having pesticides, lemons also have antibiotics on them. These can be transferred to the pulp while cutting, or onto your hands when you touch the rind. But a University of California plant pathologist says lemons are washed and treated with wax and a safe fungicide before being shipped out. And the wax means that any trace amount of pesticide residue is not really getting washed off anyway, at least not by a few seconds of rinsing. However, lemons at the grocery store are touched by who knows how many germy hands? So yes, rinse. (Ew, get that out of my drink!)

Eye Floaters often respond well to homeopathic treatment. But in homeopathy we do not treat any disease or symptom in isolation. A homeopath will need to take your full case details, which include current medical complaints and symptoms, past medical history, family history, your nature, food habits and much more It's a long process and you would need to consult a homeopath in person to get proper homeopathic treatment.

The Great Reversal
The course of a publisher of a well-known magazine for the "spiritual search", which led him to Orthodoxy
by Paul G. Voudouris
An excerpt from the "Note by the Publisher" taken from the magazine "Trito Mati" (Third Eye),
issue No.166, December 2008, pages 2-3.
This is the evaluation of the search pursued by a person who thirsted for the Truth, who had studied the traditions of the Orient for entire decades, and who finally quenched his thirst in Orthodoxy. The text is being re-published, with the kind permission of its author.
It would be a deep-seated and witting hypocrisy on the part of all of us, if we were to argue that the situation that we are experiencing is just another -albeit very tenacious- economic crisis. All of us know or can sense it in our soul that it is something much broader and much deeper (which can of course be discerned in the Economy also, because everything there is measurable). Crisis of values, crisis in ecology, environmental crisis, political crisis, social crisis... crisis everywhere. [...]
I don't know if other peoples are able to turn to their own Tradition and cope with everything that is already here - and especially with everything that is to come. I hope so. But we Greeks can. Our Tradition can redeem us. Of course we are not talking about returning to the olden-day Greek kilt instead of trousers, or back to moussaka and the ancient Spartans' "black broth" in place of sushi and hamburgers... although they too may be playing a small role. We are referring to the spiritual area of our traditions, and specifically to the Greek spiritual tradition. (*)
These are the words of one who has dedicated more than three decades of indulging in foreign spiritual traditions (with whatever punctuality and sincerity my circumstances would allow...). I am writing these things in a periodical on Quests, and in full awareness of the relationship that exists between us, because I honestly believe that we are approaching the point of a certain Great Reversal, without however being able (perhaps even unintentionally) to determine what kind it is.
As I therefore look back ... when I first embarked on my contact with the traditions of other peoples, I cannot see that my motive was insincere. I was in search of the Truth. And yet, I don't know why... but there was no-one around at the time, who could tell me about the [Orthodox Christian] "guarding of the heart". On the contrary, others had appeared on my path, who were willing to tell me about Raja Yoga which had recently arrived in Greece, and that was how I learnt to stabilize my mind through concentration and special practices. Perhaps I hadn't been searching correctly. Nevertheless, in the Greek tradition, I found no-one who could quench my thirst with anything more than obligations and moralistic instructions, which were unimaginably abhorrent to me.... So, I went on to seek that much-desired freedom in Buddhism's vacuity, and I learnt from the Vipasana about the awareness of the spirit. But at the same time, I had forgotten and repulsed the fact that in my father's and my grandfather's tradition, there was no such thing as vacuity, but an Omnipresent and All-fulfilling God.
Later on, I had often wondered why - despite the endless hours of meditation and inner silence - the basic weaknesses of my soul had remained the same; but many decades had to pass before hearing from fr. Constantine (Strategopoulos) of the Glyfada parish that if Man doesn't believe in God and silences his mind ("nous"), he will be filled with temptations... On the contrary, if he believes in God and prays whenever he silences his mind, he will be filled with Grace.
I familiarized myself and came to respect (and still respect) the teachings of the major ascetics of the Orient: Padma Sambava, Jime Ligpam Milarepa... but was entirely ignorant of the fact that during the same era, in the tradition of my people, a Simon the New Theologian was born and that Saint Nikitas Stethatos and Saint Nicholas Kavasilas had been writing in my own language. I sought and admired the unity of the bearers of human existence as taught by Tai Chi and didn't know that Saint John had already described it in his "Ladder", a thousand years before.
I had heard of the "broad spirit" of the Sufis and have participated in discussions where our local tradition saw itself at the ... level of Hinayana - the "small vehicle" - ie, the one where the ascetic is interested only in his personal salvation. Why was that? Because the Protestant viewpoint of personal salvation had become prevalent here, and had taught the people to interpret the Church through that viewpoint. I had never heard that the Orthodox are saved as a Church - that is, as a community/society of Persons - as opposed to the Westerners, who strive to be saved as individuals (Protestantism) or through the Pope (Roman Catholicism).
No-one from the tradition of my country had ever told me that the Church seeks to deify and is directed to "all of Creation", which is why I felt such awe when I heard that the Mahayana embraces all beings.
I rejected with arrogance the notion of Hell and of a vindictive God, and had turned in admiration towards the knowledgeable depths of the Tibetan Bible of the Dead, but I didn't know that much earlier, Saint Isaac (of my Greek tradition, albeit a Syrian) had written that "those being punished in the Gehenna are punished by the plague of God's love", given that our tradition teaches that the Light of God is light to those who approach it with a pure heart, and fire to those who see it warped on account of their egotism.
I believed - along with most Greeks - that Judas' greatest sin was his betrayal of Christ, and not his lack of repentance for having betrayed Him, as the true spiritual path of my country upheld, before being subjected to an assortment of influences - by the Bavarocracy, and up until the more recent, Western-type systems - from the West.
I too have travelled many miles to go and meet (indeed) important people and situations that would help me along my inner course, but it is unnatural - to say the least - for Greeks to embark on a journey to the Himalayas, when the rugged desert of Mount Athos is so close to them; for Athenians to go to Bodgaya when, right next to us, in the city's district of Monastiraki, in the little church of Saint Philip, there are the holy relics of two bodies that had touched Christ Himself: Saints Peter and Philip!
I do not by any means wish to imply that the traditions of one people are assuredly superior to foreign ones, or that the Greek spiritual tradition outrivals all others - although all indications point to something like that (an enormous philosophical background, a colossal volume of works produced, a vast number of literary ascetics, with writings formulated in our native language, a tradition unbroken for entire centuries, continuing faith by immediate ancestors, a connection to all the crucial events of our people... etc); I do want to say however that it would be a shame for one to not seek the answers to the huge existential questions and societal concerns of our day - especially a Greek - in his own homeland's traditions, before turning to something else.
(*) I know that the expression «Greek tradition» is open to many interpretations. Nevertheless, in reality the notion of tradition definitely entails two prerequisites: firstly, the laypeople's experience, which demands many years -even centuries- to take shape. And secondly, an equally long-lived and unbroken continuation thereof. In our day, these criteria seem to be preserved only by the Orthodox Tradition in Greece. It is quite possible of course, in a hundred or a hundred and fifty years - if suitable conditions exist at the time - that one might be able to speak of other Greek spiritual traditions; ones that are being created or reborn in our time, provided their bearers manage to keep them alive and unbroken.

Q: Why is there this difference between console, constructor function declaration and index of property? https://jsfiddle.net/AleKS/ydsu1ema/4/
function constObj(number, name, drink) {
  this.number = number;
  this.aName = name;
  this.drink = drink;
}

var obj = new constObj(2, "Jon", "Water");

console.log(obj);
console.log(obj[Object.keys(obj)[0]]);

I am learning about constructor functions at the moment and decided to test something in jsFiddle.
I noticed the console logging obj, displays object properties in alphabetical order.
Then I used Object.keys() to access a property by index.
As per console.log, I expected index 0 to be "Jon", instead it gave me "2", which is the order in which the constructor function was declared.
In the browser console, it logs obj as declared, but when you expand the object, the same alphabetical order is displayed.
It is really confusing.
Why does that happen and if I access a property through an index, can I be always sure that the initial property position would be used ?

A: The Object.keys() method returns an array of a given object's own enumerable property names, iterated in the same order that a normal loop would.
As per ES 2015 specification Objects iterate in the following order:

*

*Numeric array keys, in ascending numeric order

*All other non-Symbol keys, in insertion order

*Symbol keys, in insertion order

Order for the methods Object.keys, Object.values, Object.entries,
  for..in loops, JSON.stringify was not specified in ES 2015. But, as of ES2020, property order for these methods will also be guaranteed as per the above rule.

So, in your case, Object.keys will return an array in the order of ['number', 'aName', 'drink'].
The second part of your question is the order with console.log. console.log is the browser implementation, and each browser can have its own implementation.
Here is an example:

function createObj(x, y, z, a, b) {
  this[2] = x
  this.number = y
  this.aName = z
  this.drink = a
  this[1] = b
}

const obj = new createObj(1,2,3,4,5)
console.log(obj)
console.log(JSON.stringify(obj))
console.log(Object.keys(obj))

Wonder Woman 1984dc films Movie News Natasha Rothwell
By Max Evry
With production on Wonder Woman 1984 in full swing, The Hollywood Reporter brings word that Natasha Rothwell (Insecure, Love, Simon) has joined the cast in an unknown role.
Fast forward to the 1980s as Wonder Woman's next big screen adventure finds her facing an all-new foe: The Cheetah. As previously announced, the film stars Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman and Kristen Wiig in the role of the Super-Villain The Cheetah, as well as Pedro Pascal. Chris Pine also returns as Steve Trevor.
Charles Roven, Deborah Snyder, Zack Snyder, Patty Jenkins, Stephen Jones and Gal Gadot are producing the film. Rebecca Roven Oakley, Richard Suckle, Wesley Coller, Geoff Johns and Walter Hamada are the executive producers.
Joining her behind the scenes are several members of Jenkins' Wonder Woman team, including director of photography Matthew Jensen, Oscar-nominated production designer Aline Bonetto (Amélie), and Oscar-winning costume designer Lindy Hemming (Topsy-Turvy). Oscar-nominated editor Richard Pearson (United 93) will cut the film.
Production will take place in Washington, D.C., Alexandria, Virginia, and in the UK, Spain and the Canary Islands.
Set to open in theaters November 1, 2019, Wonder Woman 1984 is based on the character created by William Moulton Marston, appearing in comic books published by DC Entertainment. It will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.

Excellent look at a movie that can truly be called a classic. Caine is an endlessly engrossing movie, an endlessly satisfying experience that never seems to satisfy until you see it again.
Such great acting in this film, with the exception of Robert Francis…but, like you said, we need his POV.
I'm surprised to learn the original plan was to have the movie run 3+ hours, but I agree it could probably hold up with a longer run time.

Q: Magento 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 16.04 not running on PHP 7.0.4 I just tried to run Magento-CE-2.1.0. I use Ubuntu 16.04 and the php version is 7.0.4-7ubuntu2.
But I got this error when I wanted to run Magento:

'Magento supports PHP 5.6, 7.0.2, and 7.0.6 or later. Please read
  Magento System Requirements.'

What should I do? Can't I run Magento on ubuntu 16?

A: Nope, they have a big issue with PHP version on Ubuntu 16.04 .
Your only real option is to change PHP version to 7.0.6 or 7.0.8 or wait for next release (they are going to fix it).
Look here for more information: https://github.com/magento/magento2/issues/5131 .
Look here for PHP upgrade: https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/ubuntu/php?field.series_filter=xenial
UPDATE:
Ubuntu 16.04 has been updated to support 7.0.8, so Magento 2 is no more an issue on Ubuntu 16.04.

A: The problem is that Magento 2.1 does not support PHP from 7.0.3 to 7.0.5. More information here: Why doesn't Magento 2.1 support PHP 7.0.3 to 7.0.5?
As you're running 7.0.4 you need to upgrade to at least 7.0.6 to be able to run Magento 2.1 on Ubuntu 16.

A: Using ubuntu should not make any difference.
Try running php version 7.0.4 if you can rather than 7.0.4-7 or try php 7.0.6
More information on upgrading php on ubuntu: https://askubuntu.com/a/565961

A: To clarify, I believe the issue is with composer.json. You might be able to add 7.0.4 in composer.json and get it to work. We've done a lot of testing and found that 7.0.4 does work; however, 7.0.5 does not work due to a known issue in that release.


Anyone can walk down the aisles of Michael's and come home with pre-made items.
True, that person had to keep kids away from all the low-hanging merchandise and escape with some credit left on her card. The point, of course, is the street cred that comes with making something on your own.
That's why I've picked 10 of the CUTEST and EASIEST do-it-yourself Easter decorations this side of the internet.
The first is one I call The Tree. Yes, I'm a bit short on creativity this morning.
That's perfectly all right, though, because all I need for this craft is some sticks, something to jab them into, and Easter decorations like hanging eggs.
I suppose I could go all cutesy and make sure the sticks are in a bucket with grass. Whatever floats your Easter boat is good with me.
You can't tell me this fluffy bunny wreath didn't make you laugh out loud. Tell me you at least smiled.
It can easily be yours, or made as a thoughtful neighbor present, at the low cost of a wreath frame, bunny ears, white feather boa, and a glue gun.
Maybe you're more of a socks person. I know I am.
Instead of wearing a cute sock, today we're going to turn it into a bunny. It's also a simple craft, like I promised.
You'll need a sock (preferably clean), batting, sewing skills, and cheek-coloring marker skills. I've also seen these stuffed with a plastic egg instead of the batting.
I love glue guns. If you're not aware by now, they are one of my standard go-to's for homemade items.
Take this egg wreath, for example. If you're going with it instead of the white fluffy one, all you need to do is glue a ton of plastic eggs to a straw or styrofoam wreath.
You can go ahead and make it more difficult by painting the eggs first, but All a Dollar already has a ton of colors if you want to be lazy.
Do your kids like papier-mâché? Well, they may just like this hardened-string craft that also begins with a balloon.
Unlike the goopy mess of flour and water, however, this involves wrapping said balloon in yarn and rolling it in a special sugar water bath. This is done at least twice after drying, to ensure the yarn gets stiff.
Just before the bottom is completely dry, your future basket will need to be set upon some waxed paper to flatten its bottom. Then, the basket shape is cut out, lace is added, and you feel the overwhelming sense of pride one gets with a job all done.
You may not think Easter DIY could extend to something like a birdhouse, but why not? Birds are part of the springtime of Easter.
Découpage-ing springtime paper onto the outsides will further silence any naysayers. The birds will be happy, too.
I couldn't have just any banner for Easter. I suppose we all knew that "outside the box" was the norm after the bunny ears wreath, right?
At least this one is clearly DIY Easter. I mean: bunnies. They're probably Easter bunnies.
As with the birdhouses earlier, your choice of paper is going to help bring spring ideas into play.
Do not, for the love of rabbits, forget to stick their tails on at the end.
Have you seen people decorating with topiary lately? I remember writing about some around Christmastime, but hadn't thought to try Easter ones.
They're another basic project, and a good way to use any leftover jellybeans.
For a decoration that's natural, trendy, and still easy, try this sprouted wheat one.
As you can see, their "pot" is a cleaned-out eggshell. You can paint the shells before planting, or go au naturale.
My favorite idea using all-natural elements was with pressed flowers.
The flowers look painted on, but they're real. It's all due to the magic of Mod Podge.
If your garden isn't growing yet; pick your flowers up from a bouquet at the florist, or pick your neighbor's buds when he's not looking.

Q: Create but not start a task with a custom task factory? I'd like to be able to create a task without starting it, similar to running var a = new Task(); a.Start(); but with a custom factory.  Factories provide StartNew(), but I can't find a method to separate the two actions.  Is this possible?

A: A TaskFactory is basically two sets of default options (creation and continuation), a default cancellation token, and a task scheduler.
You can specify the cancellation token and the creation options when you just new up a task - and then start it on whatever scheduler you want. So:
Task task = new Task(action,
                     factory.CancellationToken,
                     factory.CreationOptions);
...
task.Start(factory.Scheduler);

should do the job other than continuation options. The continuation options are only relevant when you add a continuation anyway, which you can specify directly. Is there anything which isn't covered by this?
(One thing to note is that the Task-based Asynchronous Pattern generally revolves around "hot" tasks which are started by the time you see them anyway. So you probably want to avoid exposing the unstarted tasks too widely.)

Q: Method for finding roots of real trigonmetric polynomial Given a real valued trigonometric polynomial,
$$ f(x) = \sum_{k=0}^{n} a_k \cos(k x + \phi_k) $$
what is the current fastest numerical method to find the roots of the polynomial for a given error? I have just come across the Durand-Kerner method, are there any others?

A: For finding the roots of an algebraic polynomial, I swear by the Jenkins-Traub algorithm, which I've found in practice to be both faster and more robust than alternatives. The only downside is that Jenkins-Traub is rather complicated if you must implement it yourself. Codes are available online, for instance I've used this C++ implementation: http://www.crbond.com/download/misc/rpoly.cpp
I would therefore use the standard substitution $y=e^{ix}$ to turn the trigonometric polynomial into an algebraic polynomial of degree $2n$, and then apply Jenkins-Traub.

Release – Tonix Pharmaceuticals Announces Exclusive License of Potential Therapeutic or Preventative Humanized anti-SARS-CoV-2 Monoclonal Antibodies from Curia Global, Inc.
Research, News, and Market Data on TNXP
December 12, 2022 7:00am EST
Immunocompromised Individuals, Including Organ Transplant Recipients, are at Increased Risk of Severe COVID-19 and Poor Clinical Outcomes
SARS-CoV-2 has Mutated to Evade the Existing EUA-Approved Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibody Therapies
CHATHAM, N.J., Dec. 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced that it has obtained an exclusive license from Curia Global, Inc., a leading contract research, development and manufacturing organization, for the development of three humanized murine monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for the treatment or prophylaxis of SARS-CoV-2 infection. SARS-CoV-2 is the cause of COVID-19.
"We believe that the licensing of these mAbs strengthens our pipeline of next-generation therapeutics to treat COVID-19," said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. "Immunocompromised individuals, including organ transplant recipients, are at increased risk of severe COVID-19 and poor clinical outcomes1. Although five monoclonal antibody products, containing seven distinct monoclonal antibodies, have received Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for either treatment or prophylaxis of COVID-19, only a single product, Evusheld®, is still recommended for use as a prophylaxis by the National Institutes of Health COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel or FDA2,3. Moreover, concerns have been raised about the ongoing ability of Evusheld® to prophylax in the face of new variants4. We believe there is a need for second generation mAb treatments and prophylactics for COVID-195. To date, the EUA-approved products have been derived from the blood of COVID-convalescent patients or a humanized mouse6,7. The Company believes that humanized murine monoclonal antibodies discovered by Curia and licensed by Tonix represent a potential new approach to treating SARS-CoV-2 infection. The Company believes that murine monoclonal antibodies have the potential for neutralizing a broader spectrum of SARS-CoV-2 variants and may be harder for SARS-CoV-2 to evade as we face a 'variant soup' from both convergent and divergent evolution."8
Brian Zabel, Ph.D., Senior Director at Curia said, "We are excited to work with Tonix because of their commitment to developing therapeutics to COVID-19. Murine monoclonal antibodies represent a different approach and one that has the potential to generate high affinity antibodies that recognize different epitopes on the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Mice have a different repertoire of antibodies and the Curia technology for generating antibodies optimizes the selection of appropriate B cells by the timing of immunization, harvesting approach and screening platform."
Seth Lederman added, "The potential therapeutic antibodies licensed leverage our expanding internal development and manufacturing capabilities for biologics. These murine monoclonal antibodies and their humanized counterparts build on a base of knowledge from the fully human monoclonal antibody platform, TNX-3600, which we are developing with Columbia University."

Aleister Crowley — A famous British philosopher and occultist, not to be confused with our demon Crowley. The real-life Crowley dabbled in black magic and wrote the occasional novel, one of which might have inspired part of the sequence of Pepper's original names. Moonchild follows a young woman who is caught between teams of white magicians and black magicians, and a plan to impregnate her with an ethereal being. Well, it's either that or The NeverEnding Story.

The Wickedest Man In The World

We had an amazing trip, sorry for the silence. Grand Teton and Yellowstone were heavenly!
A real post is coming tomorrow, pictures included, with updates on Cello's herd, our trailer, and equipment! I'm excited to share before & after pics of the trailer, which my husband so generously is helping to paint (or rather painting on his own) and will be trying out a new saddle this week. Also re-ordered my bit that was lost in the mail, so more on that, saddle fitting and worming.


Gender differences and inequalities have resulted in variations in well being standing and well being care between women and men. The principle behind this process is that the treating doctor and the managed care physicians doing the evaluate can take a minute to speak to each other in regards to the patient, the rationale for the orders written, what the treating doctor is in search of and what the expectations are because of the treatment. The causes for successes and or failures of a number of well being programs have been debated.
In fact, I'd be keen to bet that because the politicians (republicans and democrats) are so afraid to make the necessary cuts to medicare and/or raise taxes that they invented this big well being care invoice to offer cover simply to allow them to do each! It will not shock you to hear that I found this hub to be very relevant and a rich source of valuable data.
A large number of informative pages seem at the hospital web site, with interactive pages that assist in managing one's well being. By all means, squawk just like the dickens if you encounter blatant fraud and abuse on the a part of your well being care providers. Considering the price of most medical health insurance premiums, combined with issues like co-pays etc.
This agreement brings together one of the best of our two health programs: quality, safety and scientific integration supported by translational analysis and expertise developments," mentioned Mark Neaman, President and Chief Executive Officer of NorthShore. I don't disagree that the health care system wants major overhaul, but the way in which Congress and this administration are going about it's merely sickening.

After 2 years of planning we finally moved our new shelter onto Horton's Mound today.
First off Anthony George laid out and levelled the foundations, which were then dug out. We have installed the shelter level with the ground so as to enable step-free access for disabled visitors.
We then moved the container onto Horton's Mound - amazing what Len can move on his barrow!
The shelter was fixed to the ground with 1m long spiral anchors. A soakaway was inserted along the front edge.
Over the next few weeks we will be constructing a wooden roof, holding a innovative biodiverse habitat full of wildflowers and habitats for invertebrates. We'll also give the shelter another coat of paint and plant bushes around it's edges.
A bench, noticeboard and interpretation panel will be installed inside the shelter.
Local schools and cub packs will be filling gabions with bug hotel materials, which will then be hung on the external walls to form invertebrate habitat panels.
Due to the rain, some of the footpaths, and the slope up Horton's Mound are a bit muddy, but this should soon dry out and we will be spreading grass seed over the worst areas. Sorry for any inconvenience, but it will be worth it to have a shelter for rainy days.
The shelter will soon blend into the environment, surrounded by new bushes, walls covered with invertebrate habitat panels and a flourishing biodiverse roof.
Massive thanks to everyone who helped today, and to PC Landscapes for donating materials, equipment and Anthony George.
Big thanks to Jort Brough for superbly catering for the workers.
A huge thanks to Jewson (Farnham Branch) for donating materials for the roof.
Blackwater Valley Countryside Trust, Aviva Community Fund, Greggs Foundation & Farnham Weyside Rotary Club - your support is much appreciated.


EnDev in cooperation with SNV is implementing 'The Stove Auction', an innovative trading platform for clean cookstoves in Cambodia, enabled by a results-based financing scheme. The aim of the Stove Auction is to facilitate the link between international manufacturers of high performance cookstoves and local distributors and retailers. How does it work? The Stove Auction pre-qualifies a number of stove models according to certain selection criteria. It then reaches an agreement with manufacturers to auction the stoves to local distributors. International manufacturers and local distributors and retailers benefit from financial incentives. The call for participation for interested cookstove manufacturers as well as distributors and retailers is open on a rolling basis; find more information about the application process here.
Biomass energy plays a major role in satisfying rural energy demands in Cambodia. The vast majority of the rural population (94%) depends on biomass fuels, such as firewood and charcoal, as their main cooking fuel. In addition, only 6% of Cambodia's rural population has access to grid-based electricity, mostly from village micro-grids that are often powered by inefficient diesel generators; and 80% use kerosene lamps or fluorescent lights powered by car batteries, which ends up costing an equivalent of about USD $2-3.50/kWh. As a result, household energy costs take up a significant share of the limited incomes of rural families; and demand for biomass places a heavy burden on Cambodia's natural resources.
For more information see energypedia.
Biogas plants producing methane gas for cooking and lighting are an economically efficient answer to meet the energy needs of households. Through the Netherlands Development Organisation (SNV), EnDev supports Cambodia's National Biogas Programme (NBP) in the transition from a grant driven biogas plant market to a commercially viable market supported by carbon funding, by (1) strengthening the private sector supply side actors; (2) supporting demand side market development through awareness raising and general promotion on provincial level; (3) creating a permanent credit scheme for biogas plant construction investment (4) supporting client empowerment through roll-out of Biogas User Networks (BUN) in all villages of the NBP; and by (5) providing technical assistance alongside the biogas plant value chain.
EnDev strengthens the private sector actors (1) by training new biogas construction companies and masons and by transitioning their business models into commercial franchise models, inc. the responsibility for local promotion and marketing efforts. The country project also establishes business associations for policy development, and in future capacity building and quality assurance. Overall, the project aims to facilitate the construction of an additional 9,500 biogas installations.
Our implementing partner SNV provides additional information about the project, read more on their website.
