I have a crackpot theory that instrumental bands are all lumped together because the listener is given no written instructions on how to feel. There is part of us who wants to be explicitly told what the song is saying. Whether it's that this is a love song or a breakup song or that he is the Walrus, we want to understand concretely what it is that's going on and the story behind it. Which is why we're at a loss for words on how to describe to our friends how instrumental acts like Sigur Ros or Explosions in the Sky or the Lymbyc Systym make us feel. We use words like "cinematic" and "lush" but what we really mean is "Can you believe how those synths just exploded into horns and a banjo? That was amazing! It made me feel like I could conquer the world!" Or more succinctly, "Dude, like...woah."
What is truly impressive is that Lymbyc Systym manages to do all of this with just two guys. Hailing from Arizona these brothers, Michael and Jared Bell, have been putting together these giant soundscapes since 2001. With one brother living in Austin and the other in Brooklyn, Lymbyc Systym's formative process was mostly done by sending each other music files. Now, while that doesn't sound like an exciting live show, the Lymbyc Systym becomes an entirely different beast on the road with guest violinists and trumpeters in tow. We called up Jared Bell on the road somewhere near Seattle to talk about their sophomore album, Shutter Release. Here is some of what was said.
Lymbyc Systym - "Bedroom Anthem"
How old were you when you first picked up an instrument?
When I first picked up an instrument? Do shakers count? Becuase if they do, probably around one. (laughs) The first instrument I had lessons for was the piano. I had a Casio keyboard when I was eleven. I had lessons for a month.
I didn't like the lessons I was getting. They were boring. I mean, in hindsight I probably should have continued with that, but I was always more interested in writing songs and playing really fast. Mike and I started making our first songs together when I was fifteen or something. Oh wait, no, we did actually have a rap group before that when I was ten maybe he was thirteen.
God, no. Maybe one day we'll find the tapes and launch a comeback, but I doubt it..
Why did you choose to name yourselves after the lymbic system and not another part of your brain? Is it because that's the part that controls pleasure?
(laughs) Yes. Well that and I think it's just a name that that fit our band well. It's the emotional center of the brain and I think people relate to our music in a very emotional way. I think it's one of the most primitive parts of your brain. The parts you can't really control.
Where did you write the "Bedroom Anthem"?
I wrote it in Mike's house when he used to live in Austin. He had this little apartment that had a tiny room that I think was supposed to be part of the home office, but we turned it into a music room. It was just packed with instruments. So technically I guess you could say that it was written in a bedroom.
Do the titles of the songs reflect what the songs are about? Or do you just slap a name on there that seems to fit?
Mostly the latter. We just pick a title and go, "This will stick." I mean, there is always something going on within each song that has a personal story. We always write with a certain thing in mind, but the title doesn't necessarily reflect what we're writing the song about. I mean, most of the titles reflect an element of the song, but nothing too specific. We like to leave that up to be interpreted by the listener.
In that case, what was "Narita" written about?
We wrote that about the city, Narita, in Japan. I wrote the beginnings of that song in the airport when we were leaving. We had just finished our Japanese tour and I wanted to write a song that invoked memories of Japan.
What is your writing process like? Do you write on the road or do you hole yourself up in a cabin for three weeks and don't shower?
(laughs) We don't shower anyways. We don't write on the road. There is way too much going on. We ususually are either driving or navigating or setting up gear or sleeping. There is no real down time. We usually write by ourselves after the tour is over and send each other the songs back and forth.
How do you manage to perform all of your elaborate songs on the road with just two guys?
Well we have a violinist with us, but you're right the new record is very orchestrated. Musically we try and play as much live as possible. Before we go on tour we strip down songs to their essential meat and then go from there.
Of course! We used to live in separate cities, so after the tour we wouldn't see each other for months at a time. But now Mike just moved to New York a couple months ago, so we'll probably see each other more often. It's nice though, because we actually get to practice before a tour.
(laughs) Well, not really. We would get together two days before the tour started and practice a little, but now we get to practice for a couple weeks. We're much more like a normal band now.
How did you end up with Mush Records?
I'm not entirely sure. From what I understand, Robert's friend or something saw a show of ours and really liked it. He just called us out of the blue. Initially we had made a first album, a demo thing, and sent it out to a bunch of record labels including Mush, but I don't think they even opened that package.
Why is your album titled Shutter Release?
As cliche as it sounds, we think of the songs on this album as snapshots of memories. I think you can hear the nostalgic elements in each song. And the shutter release is that moment on the camera when that memory is captured.
What is the weirdest thing you ever seen in the audience?
We've interacted with a lot very odd people on tour, but in Kansas City we met this girl who was insane. Like mentally insane. She had been stalking us online and emailing us like twenty times before the show. I guess when she got there she asked to get in for free and it didn't happen so she flipped out. She was on a different astral plane, a different universe. After the show she started sending us hate mail saying things like, "I thought you were cool, now I hate you guys." It was totally weird.
Okay last question, would you rather be a vampire or a werewolf?
Werewolf, definitely. I think vampires live more interesting lives, but I don't know if I would want to rely on human blood every day to eat. And the werewolf thing is just once a month, so you could just lock yourself up once a month. But I think I would really rather be just a big furry monster.
Yeah, because then you can make up your own rules.
Good point. Well thank you for talking with us.
Be sure to catch Lymbyc System this Sunday night at the Bootleg Theater with Helios and One Am Radio. Tickets are $12. Doors open at 8pm.

Trump has ties to drugmaker Regeneron — and now its stock is surging
Sponsored results for Trump has ties to drugmaker Regeneron — and now its stock is surging
Trump's team revealed Friday that the president received the drug, called REGN-COV2, which is being used to alleviate symptoms and reduce viral load. Shares of Regeneron surged 7% in midday trading Monday, bringing the stock's year-to-date gain to more than 60%.
"Len and President Trump are acquaintances from both living in the Westchester area for many years but didn't have any regular contact until this year, when they've discussed matters around Covid on occasion," Regeneron told CNN Business in a statement.
According to Forbes, Schleifer is now worth $2.5 billion, up from $2.1 billion in the middle of March. Schleifer primarily donated to Democratic political candidates and PACs in the 2016 and 2018 elections, according to Federal Election Commission records.
Regeneron is one of many biotechs and Big Pharma firms that has skyrocketed on hopes that it may be able to quickly develop an effective coronavirus treatment. The company started human trials for its antibody cocktail in June and began a phase 3 trial just a month later.
It has not yet been approved by the Food and Drug Administration, however. The FDA can approve the administration of it through so-called compassionate use requests on an individual basis. Regeneron confirmed to CNN Business that one of the president's doctors made such a request to Regeneron and the FDA to approve administering the drug to Trump.
Schleifer defended the decision to give Trump the cocktail last week, telling CNN's Wolf Blitzer that Trump "is in a higher-risk group for a variety of reasons" and that "we hope that we will give his immune system enough of a boost so that he can win this and make a complete recovery."
"We've got a lot of data, but we're still in the experimental phase. But when you're in the midst of a pandemic and you have people at risk, we think it makes sense to try these," Schleifer added.
Regeneron added in its statement to CNN Business that it is "in discussions with the FDA about potential for an Emergency Use Authorization for REGN-COV2" following the release of positive data about the drug last week.
The company had announced just a few days before President Trump's admission to Walter Reed that its cocktail "reduced viral load and the time to alleviate symptoms in non-hospitalized patients."
Regeneron said it is also in the process of studying the effect of the cocktail on hospitalized patients, as well as whether it can prevent infection in people who have been exposed to Covid-19.
Dr. George Yancopoulos, Regeneron's president and chief scientific officer, told CNN's Julia Chatterley in an interview Monday that the company is hoping it can get more doses of REGN-COV2 to patients within the next few months thanks to a partnership with Big Pharma giant Roche.
"We are on track to deliver 300,000 doses by the end of the year and…produce 300,000 doses a month while the demand may even still exceed that," Yancopoulos said. "If the drug is really working and having the effects that we all hope it would, it could be doing a lot of good for a lot of people."
Correction: An earlier version of this story misstated the compassionate use request process. One of the president's physicians made…

Alaska's Trevor Dunbar has already done what no other Alaskan has before him – break the 4-minute mile. But what he really wants is to be the first Alaskan to do that on his own turf. He's going to have to keep trying.
The elite runner and University of Oregon graduate attempted to become the first person to break the four-minute mile on an outdoor track (in 2013, East Coast mile specialist Jack Bolas came to Alaska and ran a 3:58.3 in the Anchorage Dome) on Wednesday night amid a crowd that numbered close to 1,000 – a packed house by Alaska standards.
The conditions were tough, with gusty winds that created a massive headwind in the home stretch. But Dunbar was not shy, pushing the pace and even holding the lead for most of the third lap, which on a windy day is not ideal. Still, he knew it needed to be done if the race was going to hit the mark.
Alaska's Trevor Dunbar congratulates Hoka One One's Kyle Merber after Merber won the Great Alaska Mile Series race Wednesday, Sept. 13, at West Anchorage High School in Alaska. Dunbar was hoping to be the first Alaskan to break the 4-minute mile mark on Alaskan soil. Instead, Merber became only the second runner to accomplish the feat with a time of 3:59.36. OTC Elite's Ben Blankenship also slipped in under 4 minutes, making him the third person to run a sub-4 in Alaska. His time was 3:59.67. Dunbar placed fourth in 4:02.21, but he has one more chance as the race series concludes on his home turf on Kodiak Island, Saturday, September 16.
In the end, two runners – Hoka One One's Kyle Merber and OTC Elite's Ben Blankenship slipped in at just under 4—3:59.36 for Merber and 3:59.67 for Blankenship. Dunbar came in fourth, well off his personal best of 3:55.54 he ran back in June. This now makes three pro runners to crack the sub-4 figure in Alaska, yet a spot still remains for the first Alaskan to do it.
No matter, the event was one for the record books. Anchorage's West High School was teeming with high-school runners, motivated by the show of professional talent they never get to see here. Spectators cheered loudly and enthusiastically, despite the blustery wind and cold temperatures. If you were a sports fan in Alaska, you likely were there to see the display of talent.
The event is part of the Great Alaska Mile Series and is being held in honor of 31-year-old David Torrence, a professional miler who was found dead in a pool in Arizona a month ago. The investigation into his untimely death continues, but for those like Dunbar, who raced alongside Torrence countless times, the loss is real and painful. The race announcer at Wednesday's event held a moment of silence and read from a tribute Dunbar wrote. For that one small moment, the crowd was silent, not a noise to be heard, as the sadness of a Torrence's death sunk in.
Dunbar has one more chance to reach his goal on Saturday (Sept. 16), in his hometown of Kodiak. The Great Alaska Mile Series will conclude with another shot at the sub-4 mark with racing beginning at 1:15 p.m. It would be so sweet if he could capture that goal – especially on his home turf.
Participating runners and their current PRs, include Trevor Dunbar (3:55.54), Ben Blankenship (3:53.04), Colby Alexander (3:54.94), Doug Benson (4:05.78), Nick Harris (4:01.50), Kyle Merber (3:54.57), Hans Roelle, also from Alaska (4:06.05) and Garrett Heath (3:53.13)

Q: Controlling Mobile Devices Camera On A Mobile Site We are developing a mobile web application which user's can reach via their mobile phones' browser. (It's not a mobile phone application, it's a web site for mobile phones) .
We want to get (upload) pictures directly from user's telephone's camera. How we can control user's camera ? I know it's not possible for mobile web site. But for example can we use Java for this? Or can we develop small plugins for mobile phones and trigger it, when user click on Capture a Photo link ?
Can you give any advices us please? Thanks !
(except this answer on this question :

can users take pictures and videos before and then select the file via
  a browser dialog (if that is supported by mobile browsers) and select
  those files to be uploaded)

Q&A's from comments :
1) Well what phone operating systems are you targeting? iOS, for example, has no ability to run Java.
Actually, we are targetting all OS.

A: *

*iOS has no ability to access the camera from a website. You cannot load Java on iOS at all, either.

*Android had the ability to access the camera from HTML demoed a while back, but I can't find anyplace noting that it actually made it into a release.

*Blackberry as far as I know also has no such ability to access the camera from a website.

If you wish to use Java, you can develop an actual app for Android or Blackberry. iOS apps are written in Objective C.
However, using PhoneGap you can write an app in HTML5 & Javascript and it will create a native iOS (for 3GS or later) or Android app capable of accessing the camera.

Many property owners in Spain are sitting on a ticking Inheritance Tax (IHT/ISD) time bomb. Most are not aware that when they purchase their "dream" property that they are unknowingly creating a potential financial burden for their beneficiaries. The surviving partner, or beneficiaries, may have a tax bill which exceeds the value of the entire Spanish asset being inherited plus the cost of obtaining probate in more than one country.
'Tax Treaties' are often quoted as a method of eradicating IHT. There are treaties that exist between Spain and the UK which reduce the risk of double taxation but these are only effective if the taxes are similar in nature. The fundamental difference between IHT in Spain and the UK is that in Spain the beneficiary pays the tax and will receive the tax demand and in the UK it is the Estate which receives the Tax demand which means there is no treaty on Inheritance Tax. The process of inheriting the property is complex requiring the beneficiaries to travel to Spain to obtain an NIE number (if they do not already have one), verify the Will through a Spanish lawyer and pay the Land Registry and Notary fees plus the calculated Spanish IHT, all within 6 months to avoid late penalties being applied.
Frequently owners are advised to re-finance the property as IHT is not charged if there is an outstanding mortgage and loan. This option can leave the beneficiaries with a huge debt they cannot pay off and many lenders will only finance the ownership if suitable life insurance is taken out. A Life Insurance policy covering the mortgage will mean the property is fully owned by the beneficiaries and inheritance tax is applied to the total value. Owning a property with your children is another suggestion. This is risky and problematic as their share of the property may be jeopardised through financial or marital issues and if they pre-decease the parents then taxes are payable to get the property back.
Our solution to the IHT/ISD problem in Spain is for the owner/s to invest the property into a UK Private Limited company (which Wincham can supply) which they would own as Shareholder/s remaining in complete control of their asset. There is no 7-10% Property Transfer tax payable on this transaction and if the property is invested using a formula agreed by the Hacienda (Spanish Tax office) the property can be invested at a figure which will limit any Capital Gains tax exposure in Spain on the transfer of the property into the UK company. A UK company should not be confused with an offshore company which is obliged to pay an annual tax of 3%. A further advantage of the UK company structure is the ability to offset certain expenses such as mortgage interest, council tax bills and maintenance and could also include car hire and flight costs for the Directors when travelling to Spain.
The Corporate structure is a simple solution, costing less than most probate and legal fees, and saves the additional reporting and taxation burdens for the beneficiaries. Our unique service is available to all Nationalities including both Residents and Non Residents of Spain and can be completed within 2 to 4 weeks if required.

Tony Wolters's Fantasy Scouting Report
Ranking by ownership percentage (15%), Tony Wolters is expected to be the #29 catcher for the rest of the season. The market is higher on Tony Wolters than the projections are so we consider him to be overvalued. His fantasy catcher projection rank is #33. Elias Diaz has virtually the same market rank (15% Owned) and is projected for more points than Wolters. He is projected for 84 fantasy points in 33 remaining games. Based on average FPs, he is even better with the #30 highest average. The market ranks Tony Wolters behind Gomes and above Diaz but the projections rank Diaz over Tony Wolters.
He has more relative strengths than weaknesses which makes him a better value in leagues that score based on production in individual categories.
Week 18 catchers comparisons show these are 5 better options at lower start percentages: Chris Iannetta (12 FP), Matt Wieters (10.3 FP), Welington Castillo (11.8 FP), Tyler Flowers (8.8 FP), and Jason Castro (10.7 FP). Brian McCann (7.3 FP), Travis d'Arnaud (6.7 FP), Josh Phegley (5.1 FP), James McCann (8.7 FP), and Austin Barnes (5.2 FP) are all projected for fewer points than Wolters but are starting in more leagues. Starting in 12% of leagues he is expected to produce 8.8 fantasy points (WK 18). At his start percentage, he is expected to be the #24 catcher of the week, but he is projected to be the #26 catcher.
He is projected for 8.7 fantasy points in week 18 (#26 C) in 4 games.
Based on 7/18 start percentages, Tony Wolters is valued behind Barnes and above Diaz but the projections rank Diaz over Tony Wolters in week 18.
Tony Wolters last five game log with fantasy points (CBS, FD, DK) and statline.
LAST DAILY FANTASY PERFORMANCE 7/17 VS SF
2-4, 1 RBI, 1 R
FanDuel: $3000, 15.7 FPs (+$1282 value, +4.7 FPs)
WEEKLY FANTASY RECAP
He has averaged 8.4 fantasy points per week and had 4 weeks where he came up short (below 50% of average) and had 3 weeks where he was +50% above average.
DAILY FANTASY SEASON RECAP
He averaged 7.2 FD points and 5.5 DK points per game. We looked at all of his games that were between the 10th and 90th percentile where the 10th percentile is his floor and the 90th is his ceiling. When he was bad in DFS, he was really bad with a floor of zero points. When he was good, he was very good with a DraftKings ceiling of 10 and 15.4 on FanDuel. He has had more bad FanDuel games (below average by 20%) than good games (20% above average), and the same was true on DraftKings. We are only including games where they were in the daily fantasy slate and played.

Q: Reduction of a union of dictionary values produces unexpected results I would like to make a union of all dictionary values, which in this case are sets. I only get the expected result if there are exactly two dictionaries in the input list.
Two dictionaries in the input list produces the expected result:
>>> reduce((lambda x, y: x['a'] | y['a']), [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}])
set([1, 2, 3, 4])

Three dictionaries in the input list produces a TypeError.
Expected result: set([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6])
>>> reduce((lambda x, y: x['a'] | y['a']), [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}])
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
    reduce((lambda x, y: x['a'] | y['a']), [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}])
  File "<input>", line 1, in <lambda>
    reduce((lambda x, y: x['a'] | y['a']), [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}])
TypeError: 'set' object has no attribute '__getitem__'

One dictionary in the input list produces a dictionary instead of a set.
Expected result: set([1, 2])
>>> reduce((lambda x, y: x['a'] | y['a']), [{'a': {1, 2}}])
{'a': set([1, 2])}

An empty input list also produces a different TypeError.
Expected result: set([])
>>> reduce((lambda x, y: x['a'] | y['a']), [])
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
    reduce((lambda x, y: x['a'] | y['a']), [])
TypeError: reduce() of empty sequence with no initial value

I need help with understanding what I'm doing wrong and why these results are produced.

A: TLDR:
The reduce(function, iterable) call recursively applies function to elements of the iterable and the previous results. That means the return type of function must be a valid input type!

*

*In your case, function expects dicts but produces a set. Since it is not possible to call x['y'] on a set, a TypeError is raised.

*When iterable has only two elements, function is applied only once and only to these elements. The problem of the return type of function not being a valid input type is thus never encountered.

You must first map from dict to set, then reduce the sets.
reduce(lambda x, y: x | y, map(lambda x: x['a'], [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}]))
#    merge via reduce ^     convert via map ^

Why reduce fails in some cases
Calling reduce(function, iterable) performs the equivalent of this code:
def reduce(function, iterable, start=None):
    result = next(iterable) if start is None else start # 1.
    for element in iterable:
        result = function(result, element)              # 2.
    return result

This leads to several cases:

*

*iterable has one element and start is not set

*

*result is the first element of iterable (1.)

*

*function is never called; its return and input types are inconsequential

*iterable has two elements and start is not set

*

*result is the first element of iterable(1.)

*function is called on the first element and next element(2.)

*

*function never receives its own result; its return type is meaningless

*iterable has more than two elements and start is not set

*

*result is the first element of iterable (1.)

*function is called on the first element and next element (2.)

*function is called on the previous result and next element (2.)

*

*function receives its own result; its return type and input type must match

*iterable is empty or not empty and start is set

*

*same as above if start were the first element of iterable

*iterable is empty and start is not set

*

*result cannot be set and a TypeError is raised (1.)

In your case, that is:

*

*Two dictionaries is 2. and works as expected.

*Three dictionaries is 3. and chokes on the incompatible input and return type.

*An empty input list is 5. and fails on the missing input - as expected.

How to do it instead
map/reduce
Your reduce is actually doing two things at once: it converts/extracts each element individually, then merges both the results. That is a classical map/reduce task: one for each element, one for all elements.
You can directly split this up into two separate operations with the map and reduce builtins:
sets = map(lambda x: x['a'], [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}])
result = reduce(lambda x, y: x | y, sets)

Of course, you can also nest the two expressions directly.
comprehension/reduce
The map portion can be expressed using a comprehension.
sets = (x['a'] for x in [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}])
result = reduce(lambda x, y: x | y, sets)

comprehension/assignment
In Python3.8, you can use an assignment expression in place of the reduce as well.
result = set()
result = [(result := (result | x['a'])) for x in [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}]]

Use a for loop
Just, you know, write it out.
result = set()
for element in [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}]:
    result |= element['a']

A: The output of the function passed to reduce must be of the same type as the items in the iterator, so that it can keep aggregating the item values with the same function.
In your case, the output of lambda x, y: x['a'] | y['a'] is a set {1, 2, 3, 4}, so when reduce tries to aggregate the third item {'a': {5, 6}} with {1, 2, 3, 4}, it fails because the lambda function treats both x and y as dicts and tries to get items of each by key 'a', which a set does not have.
As for the TypeError: reduce() of empty sequence with no initial value exception, you just need to provide reduce with an initial value as the third argument, which in your case should be an empty set {}, but you just need to first drop the idea of passing to it a list of dicts and instead pass to it a list of sets.

A: reduce works iteratively, it will apply a reducing aggregation across items of a sequence. For example, given elements i, j and k, together with function foo, it will process foo(foo(i, j), k).
In your example, foo(i, j) works fine, giving a set, but the outer call fails because the result, being a set, does not have the key 'a'. The syntax [] in the background calls __getitem__, which is why you see an error relating to this method.
What can you do about it?
A trivial hack is to have your function output a dictionary, and then access it's only value directly. This ensures that your function always outputs a dictionary with key 'a'.
reduce((lambda x, y: {'a': x['a'] | y['a']}),
       [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}])['a']

# {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

More readable, you can define a named function:
def foo(x, y):
    return {'a': x['a'] | y['a']}

L = [{'a': {1, 2}}, {'a': {3, 4}}, {'a': {5, 6}}]

I went to the exhibition regarding the proposed development on the flood plain between Lancing and Shoreham Airport on Saturday morning at the Shoreham Centre.
I feel that the council and the developers are not serious about consulting and informing the public but instead are doing the minimum necessary to get past the planning rules as quickly as possible.
Firstly, the time available (a total of 12 hours for the whole of Shoreham and Lancing to ask questions and understand the issues in a very large important development) is inadequate. In the exhibition, people were clustered around the board and easel for transport. No doubt they were extremely worried, as I was, because of the influx of even more traffic on the A27.
Secondly, as far as I could make out through a sea of heads, on the transport board it read a signalised roundabout will be built to 'mitigate the traffic problems' and that seems to be the total of what the council has in mind. Are they completely mad? The traffic now is slow-moving enough at the best of times and jammed at peak times. I think that most people who use that road would agree that something needs to be done.
A man next to me told me that the Grinstead Lane/leisure centre roundabout is to be signalised, too. I looked at the board but could see nothing to confirm that.
But they are proposing that 600 or so houses and families with cars should join the chaos.
On top of that, to propose an IKEA store with the vast numbers of people and cars they would draw to the area must be a cruel joke.
Transport is only one issue, but when you consider GP services (struggling to cope now), air pollution (a school beside the A27), increased pressure on schools, hospitals, sewerage, water, the side effects of the untested drainage proposals.
The council and developers will cry 'we need more housing for people' and that is true. Affordable housing is what the young people of the country need.
What percentage of this development is 'affordable housing'? Then, with the definition of 'affordable housing' at 80 per cent of market price, you begin to see that this development offers traffic chaos, increased pressure on already struggling services, and a hollow promise to the younger generations for an affordable place to live.

With Mediatek already having launched the Helio X20 and Helio X25, rumours have moved on to the Mediatek Helio X30 culminating in these purported details.
According to new sources and Chinese media reports today, the next Mediatek processor that the Taiwanese company hope to dominate with is the Helio X30, a successor to the Helio X20 and X25 which only officially launched earlier this month.
Sources say that the Mediatek Helio X30 will adopt a new TSMC 10nm FinFET manufacturing processor and the test samples will be ready in June while mass production won't begin until the end of the year, with the first X30 phones not expected until early 2017.
In addition to the new manufacturing process, the Mediatek Helio X30 will feature a tai-cluster of A53 and A57 cores topping out with 2 x 2.8Ghz A53 cores (the top end Helio X20/X25 tops out at 2.5Ghz).
The changes should see increased performance but sources say we might see power consumption drop by as much as 50% compared to the X20/X25.
Changes are also expected to the graphics with a 4 core PowerVR 7XT series GPU used, we should also see the Helio X30 upgraded to support up to 26 mega-pixel cameras, dual main cameras, VR and LTE cat 13.
While this all sounds quite exciting, keep in mind that we still have the rest of 2016 to go until these first Helio X30 phones hit shelves.


The First 100 Days presentation produced a list of actionable items that otherwise would not have made it onto my business planning calendar.
Having entertained and engaged audiences around the world, Joey believes in combining actionable advice with entertaining anecdotes.
His presentations are designed to encourage and motivate your audience to incorporate new ways of enhancing customer experiences.
Joey helps your audience think and feel differently about customer experience, giving them actionable takeaways and insights that can be implemented immediately.
As an award-winning, international speaker, Joey has spent decades honing his presentation and audience engagement skills in front of tens of thousands of people.
He is a consummate professional that delivers an on-time, on-message, high energy presentation – wowing your audience and keeping them coming back for more.
From frontline employees, to mid-level managers, to C-suite executives and Board members, Joey's message resonates and inspires.
Prior to any engagement, Joey works with you to make sure the presentation is designed to fit your audience and maximize the impact.
Every presentation is customized to include industry-specific statistics and stories to further ensure the applicability of his message to your audience.
Joey knows that you are working diligently to create amazing experiences for your audience members. With Joey as your presenter, this will be the best audience experience yet!
In all industries, around the world, the average business loses 20-70% of their new customers within the First 100 Days of starting to work with them. This staggering defection rate is rarely discussed, let alone addressed. While most organizations spend the bulk of their sales and marketing efforts focused on customer acquisition, few, if any, put any energy toward keeping the customers they worked so hard to attain.
Many audiences have heard presentations on sales or marketing techniques. Very few audiences have learned about what happens after the sale. The lack of discussion about the post-sale customer experience is evident even in the number of books written about the topic. A recent search of books on Amazon showed 296,852 books on marketing, 454,920 books on sales, and only 31,360 books on customer experience.
Unlike topics which are only relevant to selected individuals in an organization, The First 100 Days applies to every employee – from the receptionist to the CEO. Not only will The First 100 Days approach to operating a business radically impact and improve customer experience, but it will enhance the employees' experience as well. A presentation on customer experience is relevant to everyone on the team, as they all play a role in creating the customer experience.
With the high number of speakers your audience has seen discussing marketing or sales techniques, few have ever heard a presentation on customer experience – let alone one that left them inspired, encouraged, and eager to make improvements. Joey presents an easy-to-understand, straightforward, and easy-to-implement approach to doing business. His recommendations require minimal financial investment and will be fun for your audience to act on moving forward.
All too often, when you visit a website one of the things you look for is pricing information.
When it comes to speakers, most aren't willing to publicly share their fees. Since Joey is all about the customer experience – and in this case you (the website visitor) are the customer, he wants to give you what you're looking for without requiring a phone call to discuss particulars or a form submission to try to tease out your budget for the event.
For multi-day workshops, the investment will probably range somewhere between $25,000 – $95,000 depending on the location, number of days, size of audience, etc. For that type of event, it's best to contact Joey and sort out the specifics.
Speakers' Bureaus looking to book Joey for events can feel free to reach out about specific pricing for the type of presentation/event you are coordinating.

The Ultimate Guide to Low and No Alcohol
The £4.4bn soft drinks market
By Stuart Stone
20-May-2019 - Last updated on 20-May-2019 at 10:49 GMT
Hero: soft drinks worth big sums in the on-trade
How can operators tap into the multibillion-pound category when consumer expectation are so high?
Soft drinks are worth more than £4.4bn, says Coca-Cola European Partners senior trade communications manager Amy Burgess.
"With statistics showing more than a fifth of people are choosing not to drink alcohol at all, the category is arguably more important to operators than ever before," she explains.
"The rising demand for premium soft drinks can be linked to this, as consumers look for drinks that are more exciting and sophisticated while out and about.
"In addition, traditional favourites like Coca-Cola original taste and Schweppes Classic Tonic Water remain popular, highlighting the versatility of the category and consumer demand for choice."
However, Lee Hyde, beverage innovation manager at syrup provider Monin, adds that the modern drinker demands bespoke soft drink serves alongside non-alcoholic staples.
"It's no longer just about offering a selection of standard soft drinks," he adds. "Consumers expect on-trend flavours and premium ingredients in every drink.
"In this competitive marketplace, pubs need to seek out a point of difference, adapting their menus with new and seasonal varieties."
With CGA Brand Track figures revealing that two thirds of drinkers proactively try to lead healthy lifestyles, Britvic's OOH commercial director Rachel Phillips explains that the soft drinks category offers a unique opportunity.
"Since the Soft Drinks Industry Levy came into effect last year, we've seen an uplift in people switching from full sugar drinks to low and no-added-sugar ones across the board," she explains. "This shows that consumers have embraced the change, and manufacturers are adapting their brands.
"For the licensed trade, it's important we continue to offer choice in this growing market – particularly as the trend for healthier alternatives is also leading people to cut down on alcohol or avoid it altogether.
"That means pubs and bars need to up their game and the soft drinks category is becoming increasingly important to help them drive sales."
However, Phillips adds that on top of the continuing appetite for low and no-sugar soft drinks, premium options are growing in popularity.
"One way for operators to capitalise on this is by elevating the presentation and experience of serving soft drinks," she suggests.
Burgess adds that mocktails have become increasingly popular among consumers craving exciting drinks they can share on social media without the typically high ABV.
"With 29% of people claiming that they would consider ordering a mocktail if offered, they represent a significant opportunity for hotel bars and restaurants looking to maximise their sales," she explains.
"It's advisable to offer a menu of exciting non-alcoholic mixed drink options to meet the demand of teetotallers."
"Non-drinkers are looking for something more adventurous than the reliable heavyweights lemonade, cola or fruit juice and want these drinks to be accessible in more drinking locations, such as gastropubs, and not just at high-end bars and restaurants," according to Ounal Bailey, co-founder at WiseHead Productions.
"Non-drinkers want something well-crafted, more adventurous and to feel that they aren't missing out.
"For example, London Essence's range of unique crafted sodas that, like its range of tonics, feature a variety of contemporary flavour pairings which appeal to the sophisticated drinker.
"Our flavours, including Rhubarb & Cardamom Soda and Peach & Jasmine Soda, are combinations you may not see elsewhere in the industry as we are always looking to see how we can excite people's palates in an original way.
"We also focus on delivering a less sweet profile, which is better suited to a more adult palate," continues Wise Head's co-founder Bailey.
"Our use of distilled botanical essences in every drink in the range allows us to create the purest flavours without the excessive use of sugar.
"Given 66% of UK consumers agree that getting yourself used to less-sweet flavours is the best way to cut down sugar (source: Mintel), we certainly believe we are on-trend."

What is a poliovirus infection?
Poliovirus infection is a infectious condition caused by the poliovirus. This virus infects the nervous system and may lead to muscle weakness or paralysis (inability to move muscles at all). This condition is very uncommon as immunization has caused the virus to be eradicated from many countries. People who are not immunized against polio and who travel to areas where the poliovirus is still active have a risk of getting a polio infection. Children under 5 years of age are most commonly affected. Symptoms may include fever, sore throat, headaches and aching muscles. Some, but not all, people go on to develop muscle weakness. Poliovirus infection cannot be cured and the treatment usually only controls the symptoms. The outlook after a poliovirus infection depends on the severity of the symptoms, but it can cause permanent disability and death.
Polio is caused by the polio virus. The virus is transmitted through direct contact with an infected person or through infected mucus and feces. Although this virus has been removed from most countries in the world, episodes or outbreak of polio still occur. Outbreaks tend to occur more commonly in the summer months. Although people of any age group can become infected, children under the age of 5 years are most commonly affected. The people who are not vaccinated against polio and who travel to areas where poliovirus is still active are at risk of getting infected.
Early symptoms of a poliovirus infection resemble the flu and include fever, headache, vomiting, feeling ill and sore throat. These symptoms will often get better within a few days, and most people will have no further symptoms. If the virus spreads to the nervous system, it can cause muscle weakness in the legs, arms, back or neck. This can cause problems walking and completing tasks, and even difficulty breathing. Over time, this causes tight joints, shrinking of the muscles (atrophy) or even paralysis. Symptoms may come back years after the original infection, causing the post-polio syndrome.
The diagnosis can be made based on the symptoms and physical examination when it is known that a person is not immunized and has been to an area where they may have been exposed to the virus. Blood tests for immune proteins which fight the poliovirus (antibodies) and a lumbar puncture (taking a sample of fluid from around the spinal cord) are often done to confirm the diagnosis and to investigate for the virus in the nervous system.
There is no specific cure for poliovirus infection. Treatment aims to relieve symptoms. This may mean simple pain relief for headaches and muscle aches. People with ongoing muscle weakness may need physical therapy to help improve muscle strength. If the breathing muscles are affected and become weak, the affected person may need a machine to help with breathing.
Poliovirus infection can be prevented through vaccination. It is important to keep to the recommended vaccination schedule.

Your Guide to Hiking and Exploring the Pinelands and Wharton State Forest
Traverse forest boardwalks, bird-watch on marshes, and bike to the beach.
By Ashley Primis·	 9/26/2020, 9:00 p.m.

Location: Eastern NJ
Getting there: Varies. Wharton State Forest is 26 miles from Center City — some areas are up to an hour and a half away by car.
Personal space: More than a million acres of farmland, wetlands and woods, with tons of hiking and biking and plenty of water
This enormous natural reserve has many designations: the Pine Barrens, the Pines, the home of the Jersey Devil, and — calling all Sopranos fans — the woods where Paulie Walnuts and Christopher tried (and failed) to bury a body. In actuality, it's a forest that encompasses 22 percent of New Jersey's land area and spans seven counties. The nutrient-less sandy soil made it a crummy place for farming in Colonial days, so it remained relatively untouched over the years and now is an untapped spot for nature bathing.
Within the Pinelands, you'll find forests, hills, rivers, beaches and lakes. The best way to get a handle on it all is to concentrate adventures around state and local parks. Wharton State Forest has a huge stretch of the 52-mile Batona Trail, an ideal spot for hiking and running past ponds, sandy stretches, old rail lines, and even cranberry bogs. (The 18-mile Penn Branch offshoot is for mountain biking exclusively.) The Batsto Lake Trail and Apple Pie Hill Fire Tower Trail are a bit longer but easy. And it's okay to explore unmarked trails, but you'll need to watch out for the indigenous pine snake (not venomous, but large).

Of course, the Pinelands do include some shoreline. If you seek salt and sand, explore Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge, which is right outside Atlantic City. Parts of it butt right up to residential areas, but the tidal marshes are a popular rest stop for migrating birds, especially in the fall and spring, and an easy boardwalk trail leads you around. In Ocean County, Island Beach State Park has eight super-short intersecting trails that weave through one of the last untouched barrier islands on the East Coast. Keep your eyes peeled for ospreys.
If you'd rather be on the water, there are plenty of places to get into kayaks and canoes, including the Batsto River, Mullica River and Atsion Lake. Pinelands Adventures, which is run by the Pinelands Preservation Alliance, offers lots of river kayak tours. And if you happen upon one of the area's famously bright blue lakes or ponds on a hike, don't be alarmed: The brilliant color has to do with the makeup of the soil. They might look tempting, but it's illegal to jump in.

When Emily Murphy and her husband, an Anglican minister, moved to Edmonton in 1907, she quickly discovered that women had very few rights and even fewer laws that protected them. If their husbands ran off, sold the farm or other male relatives abandoned them, the women and their children were left destitute.
Eventually Murphy saw fit to lobby that a woman be appointed to the bench to preside over the cases of women, from those who forgot to pay dog taxes to desperate alcoholics or prostitutes. And that's how, in 1916, Murphy became the first female judge in the Commonwealth. On her first day on the bench, and on many days thereafter, she had to tolerate lawyers objecting to appearing before her because, they would argue, women weren't considered "persons" under the British North America Act, Canada's then-constitution.
Murphy also aspired to be Canada's first female senator. While a few prime ministers over the years said they supported her ambition, none would actually do anything about appointing her to the red chamber. Alas, only "qualified persons" were allowed to sit in the Senate. Murphy spent ten years working on politicians to change the law. "The fight seemed to fizzle, until Murphy discovered that if five persons acting as a unit could petition the Supreme Court to interpret the BNA Act, the issue would have to be heard by the court," writes van Herk, a novelist and creative writing professor in UCalgary's Faculty of Arts.
So Murphy gathered the "four women she trusted the most": journalist Henrietta Muir Edwards and three elected members of the Alberta Legislative Assembly — Nellie McClung, Louise McKinney and Irene Parlby. In 1927, the Famous Five, as they became known, got to work pushing for clarification around the word "person" in the constitution. The matter got to the Supreme Court of Canada in 1928, where the judges ruled "person" did not, in fact, include women.
The prime minister gave his approval and the Famous Five pressed on, appealing the case to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council of Great Britain. In 1929, the Lord Chancellor of Great Britain announced: "The exclusion of women from all public offices is a relic of days more barbarous than ours. And to those who would ask why the word 'person' should include females, the obvious answer is, why should it not." While Murphy never did get appointed to the senate, the Famous Five have been immortalized and celebrated in bronze statues in downtown Calgary and on Parliament Hill.

If they are not he will have an excuse to go back there and stay there and not leave them behind . Unfortunately " they are right behind him and he has no reason to bail out now."

Reflective Essay: The Rank Of Eagle Scout
The rank of Eagle Scout is the highest attainable in the Boy Scouts of America and on average only four percent of scouts ever earn this achievement. I'm writing to you all about when I earned mine, fellow classmates, to enable all of you to know me and my values better. I earned my Eagle Scout rank on June 23, 2016, just managing to finish all the necessary requirements and paperwork less than a week before my eighteenth birthday. However, a scout will not be able to receive the Eagle Scout rank if they are unable to complete all the necessary requirements and submit the proper paperwork before they turn eighteen as that is when scouts "age out" of the organization. However, even had I not been able to obtain my Eagle I can still say I learn
Rituals In Steven Herrick's By The River
In countless people's lives, the loss and grieving of a loved one, will most probably be experienced. In Steven Herrick's novel 'by the river' many of the characters from this novel too face the loss of loved ones as well due to death or physically leaving the town of which the novel is set in. These characters deal with the losses in a myriad of ways, however the most prominent of them would be the rituals that are undertaken to respect the person that they lost. They also try to escape the town physically and mentally, and feel the presence of their loved ones.
Winston Smith In George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four
Winston Smith, the protagonist in George Orwell's dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four is portrayed by the author to be a person very different from the character of a hero in the traditional sense. He is not supremely courageous or extraordinary in any way. Winston is a deeply flawed and complex individual who is not equipped with the virtual invincibility of a classic hero. He is essentially not a significant character in the context of the book's setting. He does not lead a grand revolution or take on Big Brother directly.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez's A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings
In Gabriel Garcia Marquez's short story, A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings, there is a clear theme of the coexistence of compassion and cruelty, which exists in the hearts of the people of the town. Although compassion and cruelty are direct opposites, it is still possible for the two to coexist. That is one of the points that is made clear in Garcia Marquez's short story, A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings. The story, written in 1955, focuses on the theme of the coexistence of compassion and cruelty in the hearts of the people of the town. (1) When an old, weak, and dirty man with huge wings appears in Pelayo and Elisenda's yard, the couple is compassionate enough to let him live and stay on their territory.
Film Analysis: Jack The Giant Slayer
The heroic character also doesn't get killed until the end of the story which also helps distinguish whether it's a heroic story or not. In the movie, Jack the Giant Slayer, Jack barely survives every dangerous moment, which shows the character's strong life. When the Giant meets three men including Jack, he barely escapes death. Jack was hiding under the water, but right front of the Giant, which is impossible to be invisible. We could see the Giants are not that smart through the Giant's wrinkle because it tells that they are old.
A Farewell To Arms Analysis
"It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it" (Lou Holtz). Ernest Hemingway's novels all have a similar main character that portrays a term called a Hemingway Hero. In his novel, A Farewell to Arms, the main character Frederic Henry shows traits to classify him as a Hemingway Hero. The load mentioned in the quote on Frederic Henry is stress. Henry's stress comes from many sources such as what happens to Catherine, fellow soldiers, and the war.
The Importance Of Eagle Scout In My Life
Since sixth grade, the Boy Scouts of America, specifically Troop 39 in Burlington, has played a large role in my personal development and growth. I started at the bottom of the totem pole, and worked my way to the top through years of hard work and dedication to finally reach my childhood goal of being an Eagle Scout. This journey through scouting, and my achieving in attaining this rank, also represents my transition in my life from childhood to adulthood, within both my family and community. As I grew as a scout, I also grew as a person; and although my being an Eagle Scout marked an end to my scouting career, it also marked the beginning to my life as an adult. As an Eagle Scout, I 've learned many skills that proved to be useful in scouting, but also in life as well.
Watsons Go To Birmingham Poem Essay
_Literary Essay In the play "The Watsons Go To Birmingham" and the poem, "Making Sarah Cry" they both have similarities and differences. In both text and poem they share the theme of courage. For instance in "The Watsons Go To Birmingham" they go to a "white only" restaurant and could have got arrested. In "Making Sarah Cry" Sarah stands up for someone who made fun of her. Although the theme is the same the characters act very different.
Courage Of Immigrants In Mary Jane Auch's Ashes Of Roses

In Mary Jane Auch's historical fiction novel Ashes of Roses, the courage of immigrants is the heart of the story. The book follows the young protagonist Rose Nolan, an Irish immigrant coming to New York City. She meets challenges after challenge as she navigates her new life in America, while also making new friends such as Gussie Garoff.
Figurative Language In My Papa's Waltz
In the poem, My Papa's Waltz, the speaker, Theodore Roethke, writes about a father and son waltzing. Further investigation suggests there is more going on than a waltz. The poet utilizes figure of speech and a negative toned vocabulary throughout the poem. Thus, alleviating the reader of the harsh truth of an abusive relationship whilst never dehumanizing the father.

Remember that they are human in origin.
Remember that ultimately nothing is human in origin.
Don't too quickly play the "fallibility card." It might be your own fallibility that is causing the discomfort, rather than the text's.
Don't too quickly try to resolve the question of who is right or wrong. Welcome the tension of not knowing. Allow entire passages to remain a mystery to you.
Take the stance that you are not there to resolve the text; the text is there to resolve you.
Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Wisdom at earlier stages of development is still wisdom. Don't let the author's flaws blind you from seeing the truth in their words.
True words are words that convey the truth; they are not themselves the truth. For that reason, allow the words to speak to your heart and not merely get stuck in your mind.
Allow a lack of understanding to remain indefinitely. Open your mind not only so that you may receive new understanding, but also so that you may practice keeping it open even when no understanding is forthcoming. Allow this frustrating tension to chip away at your habit of needing to be in control.
At the same time, devote yourself to understanding whatever you possibly can, so that you can take responsibility for the truth you have seen, putting it into practice.

The Vigilante News Anchor Who Changed Indian TV
In a time of deteriorating press freedom, audiences and the BJP have found a champion in Arnab Goswami, who promises to deliver the justice that the media has failed to bring.

There aren't a lot of channels that get the chance to cover the arrest of their own news anchor. But Republic TV is no ordinary news channel, and Arnab Goswami no ordinary host. On November 4, India's 762 million television viewers had access to clips of Mumbai police dragging Goswami off to prison, his iconic rectangular glasses now framed behind the lattice of a police van's window, his face — usually calm, animated, or irate — displaying something like fear. The charges — abetting the suicide of an interior decorator five years ago — were trumped-up and politically motivated, but no more so than the many allegations he'd made on live television over the years. But unlike actor Rhea Chakraborty — who he'd successfully jockeyed into prison on similar charges after the death of her boyfriend — this journalist and vigilante had some very powerful friends.


We have a requirement to build a report which is similar to Project Status Summary Report. We are on Clarity 14.2 and there is no OOTB Project Status Summary Report in available Advanced reporting. I want to develop a custom report which uses "Phase and Key Milestone Schedule" section of Project Status Summary report. Is there any way we can get that report?
I just checked the release notes of 14.2 and it states CA Clarity PPM does not support Jaspersoft flash charts.
Install the Jasper Studio (use the stylised version available from CA) and connect to your CA PPM repository. You can then navigate to the report files from the Repository Browser.
We have already installed Jaspersoft and configured Advanced report in Clarity. All other Clarity reports are available in repository library. But we couldn't find the "Project Status Summary" report from that.
Yes, I searched in our 14.2 Clarity and I couldn't see this particular report there in Advanced reporting.
Thanks. I understood. Since we are using 14.2 version is there any way to get the report design for us. I don't see any other reports in 14.2 which have a Gantt view like in "Phase and Key Milestone Schedule" section of Project Status Summary report.
The best option which I can think of is install a 14.3 system and open the report using Jasper studio, save a copy and import to 14.2 to see if it works. I haven't tested the same and I am not sure if the attributes used in the report exist in 14.2 or not.
I tried in that way and copied the jrxml code from 14.3 and added that section under "Project Storyboard" in 14.2. I have mapped the parameters, published and ran the report in Clarity. The report is generating but, I am not able to see the graph. Instead it is showing "Chart Type not supported". I doubt is there any limitation for this jaspersoft lower version which we using in 14.2?
Thank you very much Suman. So we can assume that CA included "Project Status Summary" report in only in 14.3, due to this Jaspersoft version compatibility.
If no further question could you go ahead and mark the thread answered?


Here is a testimonial we were so proud to have received from Larissa, the owner of Mind Set & Go.
Her business is in redressing and dealing, with the issues of Gymnast, whom for what ever reason, be it fear after injury or just lack of confidence, are having difficulty with their routine, her daughter is a client and a fantastic gymnast, this lady know about what treatment gymnast's need ,we are proud she chose Getfitstayfit Norfolk to treat her daughter, one of the future medal hopefuls for our country.
"My daughter is 14 years old and she is an England Squad gymnast. Because of the intensity of her training (6 days a week) and for the purpose of preventing injuries she needs regular maintenance. Sports massage is the best way to keep her muscles subtle and toned. Throughout her gymnastics career she had many sports massage therapists treating her, but there was no one like Steve Kirby. Steve's approach and equipment are one of a kind. Apart from being a great professional who is extremely passionate about helping his clients.
Steve is a very caring specialist. He is always looking for new ways to improve his service and to help his clients to get rid of pain as soon as possible. My daughter had found his Hydrotherm Massage Therapy bed very useful in regular sessions, as in combination with the traditional massage it helps to break down all the tension and takes away tightness of the muscles, muscle pain and discomfort. Also my daughter is quite a regular user of the Bioneuro Therapy system. Whenever she hurts herself (as gymnastics is quite a dangerous and traumatic sport), this system helps to speed up her recovery. The combination of different methods Steve Kirby is using, works extremely well for my daughter's health and well-being. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone who is looking for an honest, reliable, caring and passionate professional, who knows his trade and is going to do everything in his power to take away the pain and to speed up your recovery.
