'Pump and Trump': Explosive New Investigation Reveals Corrupt Practices of President's Family Business
Donald Trump claims he only licensed his name for real estate projects developed by others. But an investigation of a dozen Trump deals shows deep family involvement in projects that often involved deceptive practices.
Heather Vogell, ProPublica, with Andrea Bernstein and Meg Cramer, WNYC, and Peter Elkind, ProPublica
An eight-month investigation by ProPublica and WNYC reveals that the post-millennium Trump business model is different from what has been previously reported. The Trumps were typically way more than mere licensors or bystanders in their often-troubled deals. They were deeply involved in these projects. They helped mislead investors and buyers — and they profited handsomely from it. (Image: Cover detail/Pro Publica/WNYC)
Since Donald Trump's fortunes came surging back with the success of "The Apprentice" 14 years ago, his deals have often been scrutinized for the large number of his partners who have ventured to the very edges of the law, and sometimes beyond. Those associates have included accused money launderers, alleged funders of Iran's Revolutionary Guard and a felon who slashed someone in the face with a broken margarita glass.
Trump and his company have typically countered by saying they were merely licensing his name on these real estate projects in exchange for a fee. They weren't the developers or in any way responsible.
But an eight-month investigation by ProPublica and WNYC reveals that the post-millennium Trump business model is different from what has been previously reported. The Trumps were typically way more than mere licensors or bystanders in their often-troubled deals. They were deeply involved in these projects. They helped mislead investors and buyers — and they profited handsomely from it.
Patterns of deceptive practices occurred in a dozen deals across the globe, as the business expanded into international projects, and the Trumps often participated. One common pattern, visible in more than half of those transactions, was a tendency to misstate key sales numbers.
In interviews and press conferences, Ivanka Trump gave false sales figures for projects in Mexico's Baja California; Panama City, Panama; Toronto and New York's SoHo neighborhood. These statements weren't just the legendary Trump hype; they misled potential buyers about the viability of the developments.
Another pattern: Donald Trump repeatedly misled buyers about the amount (or existence) of his ownership in projects in Tampa, Florida; Panama; Baja and elsewhere. For a tower planned in Tampa, for example, Trump told a local paper in 2005 that his ownership would be less than 50 percent: "But it's a substantial stake. I recently said I'd like to increase my stake but when they're selling that well they don't let you do that." In reality, Trump had no ownership stake in the project.
The Trumps often made money even when projects failed. And when they tanked, the Trumps simply ignored their prior claims of close involvement, denied any responsibility and walked away.
The cycle is exemplified in Panama City, where the Trumps were involved in a project to build a massive tower and complex known as the Trump Ocean Club. The project's unfortunate turns included bankruptcy, then, years later, the forcible ejection of the Trump Organization from managing the hotel.
There, as elsewhere, the Trump Organization disclaimed responsibility. It emphasized that it had merely licensed the Trump name to developers who handled everything from construction to marketing. "The Trump Organization was not the owner, developer or seller of the Trump Ocean Club Panama project," it said in a statement last year. "Because of its limited role, the company was not responsible for the financing of the project and had no involvement in the sale of units."
That was false...

Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, accounting for 2.09 million cases and 1.76 million deaths in 2018. Two of the most prolific cancer epidemiologists of our time — Sir Richard Doll and Sir Bradford Hill — identified smoking as the biggest cause of lung cancer in their seminal report, "Smoking and Carcinoma of the Lung", published in the British Medical Journal in 1950. Nearly 70 years later, smoking remains the predominant risk factor for lung cancer, as well as for 15 additional cancers and other non-communicable diseases.
Tobacco is the world's leading cause of premature disease and death. One in two smokers will die from their addiction unless they quit. Smoking is also a major contributor to health inequalities between the richest and poorest in society. Evidence from the Health Improvement Network in the United Kingdom indicates that smokers from more deprived groups are just as likely as those from less deprived groups to receive advice to quit from their GP. However, evidence from observational studies suggests that smokers from disadvantaged backgrounds are much less likely to quit, even after accessing treatment from specialist stop-smoking services.

Q: Closing JFrame with Button I am currently using Eclipse's drag and Drop feature, I have one application window which comes with JFrame by default and is able to setVisible(false); but my other frames/panel/window I have created with JPanel and with extending JFrame.
Because of extend I am unable to setVisible(false or true); it has no effect at all on the window it still remains true.
My code :
private JPanel contentPane;

/**
 * Launch the application.
 */
public static void main(String[] args) {
    EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            try {
                LibrarianMenu frame = new LibrarianMenu();
                frame.setVisible(true);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    });
}

public LibrarianMenu() {
    setTitle("Librarian");
    setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
    setBounds(100, 100, 385, 230);
    contentPane = new JPanel();
    contentPane.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(5, 5, 5, 5));
    setContentPane(contentPane);
    contentPane.setLayout(null);
    .
    .
    . so on

Here I am trying to execute my button:
 btnLogout.addActionListener(
            new ActionListener() {
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                    LibrarianMenu frame = new LibrarianMenu();
                    frame.setVisible(false);
                }
            });

Any solutions for it?

A: Because you're creating the frame inside the Runnable, its scope is limited to that of the runnable. Try declaring the variable outside of the runnable, then initializing it within the runnable, like so:
private JPanel contentPane;
private LibrarianMenu frame;
public static void main(String[] args) {
    EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            try {
                frame = new LibrarianMenu();
                frame.setVisible(true);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    });
}

Then setvisible to false without declaring a new instance of LibrarianMenu:
btnLogout.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
           frame.setVisible(false);
     }
});

A: This is happening because every time you press the button you create a new instance of that frame. Here is your code updated :
static LibrarianMenu frame ;
public static void main(String[] args) {
    EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            try {
                frame = new LibrarianMenu();
                frame.setVisible(true);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    });
}

And the logout button event should be like this :
btnLogout.addActionListener(
        new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                frame.setVisible(false);
            }
        });

'Disappointed': ABC, Nine lose appeal over Chau Chak Wing truth defence
By Michaela Whitbourn
August 2, 2019 — 1.25pm
The ABC and Nine Entertainment are contemplating a High Court challenge after losing an appeal against a ruling throwing out their truth defence in a second defamation case brought by Chinese-Australian businessman Chau Chak Wing.
In February Mr Chau won an earlier defamation case against The Sydney Morning Herald over an online article linking him to a US bribery scandal. He was awarded $280,000 in damages.

In a separate case, Mr Chau is suing the ABC, Nine and The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age journalist Nick McKenzie in the Federal Court over a joint investigation that culminated in a Four Corners broadcast on June 5, 2017, and an accompanying article on the ABC website. Fairfax Media and Nine Entertainment Company merged last year.
Mr Chau's barrister, Bruce McClintock, SC, has told the Federal Court the publications suggest Mr Chau, one of the country's most generous political donors, is a spy who "betrayed his country" in order to serve the interests of China and the Chinese Communist Party.
The media outlets and McKenzie were relying on a range of defences but a central part of their case was that the claims were substantially true.
The outlets hit a roadblock in August last year when Justice Steven Rares threw out their truth defence in its entirety, leaving intact only a technical defence of qualified privilege and an argument about whether the defamatory meanings pleaded by Mr Chau were conveyed.
The outlets and McKenzie appealed against that preliminary decision to the Full Court of the Federal Court. In a unanimous decision on Friday, Justices Anthony Besanko, Robert Bromwich and Michael Wheelahan dismissed the appeal and ordered the media parties to pay Mr Chau's costs.
The court said the media outlets had "not shown that the primary judge's orders were in error" and "there are many serious problems" with the way the truth defence was pleaded.
"A circumstantial case may paint a picture, but in this case it is not clear what picture is being portrayed," the court said.
"If the respondents were to make a further application for leave to amend their defence ... there would need to be some, and possibly substantial revision of the pleading in order that it be viable."
In a statement on Friday, a Nine spokesperson said it was "disappointed by the Full Court's decision not to reinstate its truth defence".
"The decision demonstrates the difficulty that the media has in defending independent journalism from defamation claims in this country," the spokesperson said.
"Nine remains of the view that its reporting in this case was in the public interest, was responsible, and was prepared meticulously. Nine will review the decision closely and consider its appeal rights."

MAX LEONE WANTS YOU TO BE YOURSELF ON "MALLEABLE"
Emerging singer-songwriter Max Leone does not have time for two-faced, shape shifters (@ geminis, sorry not sorry).
Max Leone is a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer from Portland, OR. After studying guitar at Berklee College of Music and signing with Darkroom, he has garnered attention from his strong single releases. Referred to as an "anti-pop prodigy" by NME, Leone sets the bar even higher on last Wednesday's release, "Malleable."
MAX LEONE - "MALLEABLE"
Look- I get it, (especially here in LA) people can become chameleons in order to impress others. At the end of the day, however, it's pretty glaringly obvious when someone's being fake. On "Malleable," Leone explores this concept. In his own words, "Malleable is about that friend you have who is always changing themselves to fit in with the people around them, and sometimes it feels like you don't really know them at all."
Mourning the loss of the version of this friend that he once knew, Leone sings over gentle guitars that glitch out and introduce a chill, but driving beat. Somewhere between singer-songwriter, bedroom pop, and R&B, "Malleable" hinges on stellar melodies and great lyricism. Leone skillfully balances between being metaphorical and being blunt. In the chorus, direct lines like "You've changed, and it sucks" are followed by more poetic statements like "You bend to everyone / And it doesn't break you." These lines lead up to the final, heartbreaking epiphany: "I don't know you anymore."
With a DIY music video that follows Leone through the vacant streets of Portland, feelings of loneliness and nostalgia arise. On his singles, Leone has shown us a few sides, though the constant of great songwriting remains throughout. His debut EP is on the way, and We Are: The Guard could not be more excited to see what else this rising talent has to say!

Kim Woo Bin says he's more brains than brawns at "Criminal Designer" press conference
Trending model and actor Kim Woo Bin says he's more brains than he is brawn at a recent press conference held for his upcoming movie Criminal Designer.
On November 18th, a press conference for the highly anticipated crime and action movie Criminal Designer (The Technicians) starring Kim Woo Bin, Lee Hyun Woo, Go Chang Suk, and many other top-notch actors, was held in Seoul.
Kim Woo Bin was present at the conference for his role as Ji Hyuk, who is a safe cracker in the movie. During the conference, MC Park Kyungrim asked Woo Bin, "You are leading a life suited of your title as a 'Multiplayer' (Versatile actor). You have also been very busy, but weren't you tired while on set?"
Kim Woo Bin honestly answered, "I was out of energy, but with the guidance of director Kim Hong Sun, and help from Go Chang Suk sunbae, I was able to overcome my short comings."
Another question that was asked of the young actor was whether he relied on physical strength or brains more. Kim Woo Bin answered, "I usually think things through. Up until middle school I was a very hard working student, and after that I decided to pursue my passion instead of academics."
Criminal Designer is a movie that tells the story of expert technicians who come together to plan a large scale robbery. Actors Go Chang Suk, Kim Young Chul, Cho Yoon Hee, and Lim Joo Hwan will also be featuring along side with Kim Woo Bin and Lee Hyun Woo. The film has also given fans a look, with the release of character posters and movie stills. Criminal Designer has already been presold in four different Asian countries at the Asian Film Market that was held from October 4th through 8th in Busan.
The movie has yet to premiere in Korea, but stay tuned for anymore information regarding its release!

This wedding was so beautiful! I loved capturing all of the romantic winter details and fun personal touches (like the AMAZING blue Chucks worn by the bride herself!). I loved the colors and the soft afternoon light. I loved the venue and the small lake that surrounds it. But mostly, it was the raw emotion and honest love between the couple that made this wedding truly special. From the First Look to the First Dance, these two were clearly in the moment, taking it all in, and just incredibly excited to be marrying one another. It was such a pleasure to photograph, and I was honored to be a part of it!
One of the aspects of wedding photography that I love so much is that--by the end of it all--I feel I have truly gained two new friends. With LaToyia and Miguel, it was an absolute pleasure getting to know them a bit. And capturing one of the biggest days of their lives, I came to understand one important thing: They truly are perfect for one another. Both have kind hearts and fun-loving personalities, and I just know that these two are meant to be!
LaToyia and Miguel, I am so thankful and overcome with gratitude to have captured all the love and laughter on your wedding day.
The bride gifted her girls a beautiful necklace and earring set to be worn with their gorgeous gowns.
One of LaToyia's bridesmaids made this beautiful necklace for her!
I love when there is enough time to allow for photos of the groom and his guys getting ready. Always a guaranteed fun time!
Boys will be boys! I love that their venue--Lakeside Pavilion--offers a bridal suite as well as a groom's room.
The groomsmen gift…I felt very protected :-) Good idea!
All floral arrangements were designed by Chico Florist. So pretty! Wait until you see the bride's bouquet--stunning!
Miguel was such a pleasure to work with!
Even though he admitted to being shy in front of the camera and was a bit nervous leading up to the First Look, Miguel proved to be a natural!
I LOVE when a couple opts for a First Look, and choose to see each other prior to the ceremony! It is so sweet, intimate and personal. Plus, it allows ample time for photos of the couple.
The groomsmen were super fun to photograph! Love these next few shots of Miguel with his guys!
This littlest flower girl was so stinkin' cute!
The winter-themed details were elegant and romantic. We Do Design provided styling and decor rentals.
Their First Dance was extra special.
…as did many of the guests.
Um, I think this was quite possibly the best cake smash ever!
…as were the Money Dances! Thanks again you two for a fabulous day!


Two of these pictures show the car queuing for the SPL measurement. The judges install the standard AudioControl SA3050A sonic analyzer for this. It is used for measuring SPL (sound pressure level) and RTA. The maximum volume isn't very interesting to me. The system plays good and controlled at high volumes, and it can make more noise than I can stand. The RTA can be compared to a reversed equalizer: the machine tries to find out if all frequency ranges are represented equally. The goal is to get a flat line, i.e. a neutral equalizer. This is no guaranty for a good sound tough.
During the contest the American IASCA judge Rich Celser was present. He admired my car but said the exhaust fumes were so dirty I'd deserve a 10 point penalty.
During the first test a contestant is allowed to keep the engine running. This means that both the alternator and the battery can be used for power, which will result in a better sound (if no capacitors are used). So I always keep the motor running. On RTA the engine has to be off.

KickO unites music legends on World Music Day to bring music closer to children
MUMBAI: Research says that music helps release the "happy chemical" in human body, infact we are programmed to be happier when we listen to music. And on the occasion of this World Music Day, destination of unlimited happiness, Sony YAY! Is all set to celebrate the magical gift of music and spread unlimited smiles amongst its young fans.
On the day when the world celebrates music, Sony YAY! aims to ensure that children from different walks of life strengthen their musical connect and not miss out on this magical form of art. A unique initiative kick-started by the channel, witnessed KickO, the superhero from Suncity bringing together legends such as A.R Rahman, Badshah, Sonu Nigam, Shaan and many more. The music maestros extended their support to the movement by gifting autographed musical instruments from their prized collections to children from an NGO, helping them come closer to the opportunity of exploring their passion in music.
The initiative saw globally acclaimed artists and role models for children providing signed instruments, to introduce them to the joys of music. Right from Grammy and Academy Award-winning musician, A.R. Rahman's keytar, to singer Sonu Nigam's tabla set, and singer Amaal Malik's ukulele, the movement struck the right chord among the YAY-fans. The enthusiasm and the willingness shown by the artists to be a part of this wonderful community initiative was heartening. The response it generated over the last year and the impact it had in benefitting scores of kids from different walks of life to learn music and realize their dream, has definitely attracted more like-minded celebrities pledging their support to the cause. Almost all of them shook a leg with KickO, posed for pictures and shared their thoughts on World Music Day. They echoed the channel's sentiments on the importance of music and how it truly transcends and unites everyone. Through this collaboration, the kid's entertainment channel aims to help children and add another ray of sunshine in their lives.
The complete list of the signed musical instruments is as follows:
Tabla set
Sunidhi Chauhan
Amaal Malik
PalakMuchhal
Arko Mukherjee
RJ Meha Kapoor – 104.8 Ishq
Leena Lele Dutta, Business Head, Sony Pictures Networks India, Kids' Genre!
"Music is something that instantly gives a happy vibe to everyone. The face of a kid lights up once music starts playing. At Sony YAY! we constantly invest ourselves in making the channel the destination of unlimited happiness and this is exactly the reason we started this initiative. Through our World Music Day initiative, we aim to bring music closer to the lives of the kids. We are overwhelmed by the response garnered by the initiative especially from esteemed artists who pledged their support to this movement. By donating the personally signed instruments, we wish to assist kids in their musical journey. We'd like to thank everyone for their support"

An accountant gets one over on a lawyer
A lawyer and an accountant are sitting next to each other on a long flight from the US back to London. The lawyer leans over to the accountant and asks if he would like to play a fun game.
The accountant just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and rolls over to the window to take a few winks. The lawyer persists and explains that the game is really easy and a lot of fun. He explains "I ask you a question and if you don't know the answer you pay me £10".
Again the accountant politely declines and tries to get some sleep. The lawyer, now somewhat agitated, says "OK, if you don't know the answer you pay me £10, and if you ask me a question and I don't know the answer I will pay you £100".
This catches the accountant's complete attention, and as he sees no end to this torment unless he plays, he reluctantly agrees to the game.
The lawyer asks the first question. "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"
The accountant doesn't say a word, reaches into his pocket and pays the lawyer £10.
The lawyer is disappointed but still encourages the accountant to ask a question. He thinks for a moment and then asks the lawyer: "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?" Having asked the question he turns round and goes back to sleep.
The lawyer looks at him with a puzzled look. He takes out his laptop and searches all his references, he opens his laptop, logs on to the web and tries searching around wikipedia, tries google, yahoo and host of other serch engines but he gets nowhere. Frustrated he sends emails to all his collagues and friends. All at no avail.
After an hour he wakes the accountant and hands him £100. The accountant politely takes the £100 and turns away to get back to sleep. The lawyer, more than a little miffed, shakes the accountant and asks, "Well, so what is the answer? What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?"
Without a word the accountant reaches into his wallet, hands the lawyer £10 and goes back to sleep.

Vejbystrand Strandbad is a broad, nearly 1 kilometer long sandy beach, which is located west of the village Vejbystrand, about 14 kilometers northwest of Ängelholm.
The beach Vejbystrand Strandbad is between 20 and 30 meters wide and stretches from the marina Vejbystrand southwards to the headland Vejby (Vejby udde). It is located at the edge of the holiday house area, is shallow, but on windy days dangerous undercurrents can occur.
During the summer the beach is guarded and in nice weather relatively well frequented. Anyone looking for a sheltered place to sunbathe is allowed to settle between the dunes. There is a beach area for dogs as well as toilets and showers. At the southern end, at Vejby udde, a wheelchair ramp leads into the water and you will find a disabled toilet.
Parking is possible on Kustvägen above the beach.

Q: Move View in WindowManager makes the view not appear I'm using DynGridView by PocketMagic to dynamically drag/drop views in grid view. Once I start dragging the DragView is created from a bitmap, added to WindowManager and shown on the screen. The problem is that the view doesn't appear if I start dragging the view fast. It appears only if I start dragging slow or stop moving for a while. Here is the code responsible for adding the view to WindowManager and moving the dragged view.
/**
 * Create a window containing this view and show it.
 *
 * @param windowToken obtained from v.getWindowToken() from one of your views
 * @param touchX the x coordinate the user touched in screen coordinates
 * @param touchY the y coordinate the user touched in screen coordinates
 */
 public void show(IBinder windowToken, int touchX, int touchY) {
    WindowManager.LayoutParams lp;
    int pixelFormat;
    pixelFormat = PixelFormat.TRANSPARENT;

    lp = new WindowManager.LayoutParams(
            ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
            ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
            touchX-mRegistrationX, touchY-mRegistrationY,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_APPLICATION_SUB_PANEL,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_IN_SCREEN
                        | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS,
                    pixelFormat);
    lp.gravity = Gravity.LEFT | Gravity.TOP;
    lp.token = windowToken;
    lp.setTitle("DragView");
    mLayoutParams = lp;

    mWindowManager.addView(this, lp);
 }

/**
 * Move the window containing this view.
 *
 * @param touchX the x coordinate the user touched in screen coordinates
 * @param touchY the y coordinate the user touched in screen coordinates
 */
 void move(int touchX, int touchY) {
     // This is what was done in the Launcher code.
     WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = mLayoutParams;
     lp.x = touchX - mRegistrationX;
     lp.y = touchY - mRegistrationY;
     mWindowManager.updateViewLayout(this, lp);
 }

Commenting these lines
//lp.x = touchX - mRegistrationX;
//lp.y = touchY - mRegistrationY;

or
//mWindowManager.updateViewLayout(this, lp);

makes the view appear everytime, so I guess that it is somehow related to fast movement right after the view  has been added to the WindowManager.
As for the log, the following line is shown when the problem happens:
V/ViewRootImpl: dispatchResized mReportNextDraw cancel... mWinFrame : Rect(837, 129 - 911, 189)  frame : Rect(653, 194 - 727, 254) window DragView

If any other information is required, let me know!
EDIT:
I face this issue on Android 4.4. There is no problem on Android 5.0.

Pankaj Tripathi joins the cast of Bachchan Pandey- Cinema express
Pankaj Tripathi joins the cast of Bachchan Pandey
This is Pankaj's third collaboration with producer Sajid Nadiadwala (after Super 30 and '83) and his first with Akshay
Actor Pankaj Tripathi has joined the cast of Bachchan Pandey. The film, directed by Farhad Samji, stars Akshay Kumar and Kriti Sanon in the lead roles, alongside Jacqueline Fernandez and Arshad Warsi.
This is Pankaj's third collaboration with producer Sajid Nadiadwala (after Super 30 and '83) and his first with Akshay.
A source close to the development said, "While Kriti and Pankaj have worked earlier in Lukka Chuppi. Pankaj and Akshay will be teaming up for the first time. Both are known for their comic timing and unusual choices and one cannot wait to see the creativity of both these actors on screen."
Pankaj will join the cast at Jaisalmer in January. He will apparently essay a pivotal role that will add a lot of humour to the storyline. "It's a huge ensemble cast which will be shooting together for 90 days; it's going to be a roller coaster ride," the source said.
In Bachchan Pandey, Akshay portrays a gangster while Kriti plays a journalist. The twist occurs when the two meet and discover their common passion for cinema. The film is set for release in 2021.

Q: why formatted data in datagridview cell sent to textbox removes formatting? I have datagridview control with a column formatted to have currency values. The data was NOT bound to the datagridview using data binding, it was simply assigned to each column. i have added a cellDoubleClick event to send value in cells to textboxes. But when currency values were sent to textboxes they removed formatting and it happened automatically ie. the $ sign and grouping of digits gets removed. Why this happens? and how do i make it not do it?
Here is some screen shots
all loaded data with formatting to the datagridview control

double click on a cell send data to textboxes

Here is the code that sends data to textboxes
private void dgvRooms_CellDoubleClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
    try
    {
        cmbBlockCode.Text = dgvRooms[1, e.RowIndex].Value.ToString().Trim();
        cmbLevels.Text = dgvRooms[2, e.RowIndex].Value.ToString().Trim();
        tbxRoomNo.Text = dgvRooms[0, e.RowIndex].Value.ToString().Trim();
        tbxAval.Text = dgvRooms[3, e.RowIndex].Value.ToString().Trim();
        tbxRentWeek.Text = dgvRooms[4, e.RowIndex].Value.ToString().Trim(); //String.Format("{0:C2}", );
        tbxBondAmount.Text = dgvRooms[5, e.RowIndex].Value.ToString().Trim();

    }
    catch (Exception)
    {
        throw;
    }
}

A: ..the $ sign and grouping of digits get removed. Why does this happen? And how do I make it not do it?
The Value is the value and you should be glad for this : With all the formatting in it, how could you still use it in a calculation.. etc?
To get it with the formatting you can copy its FormattedValue like this:.
tbxRentWeek.Text = dgvRooms[4, e.RowIndex].FormattedValue.ToString().Trim();

Appearances aside, Abbas hasn't given up on disarming Hamas
AnalysisAbbas merely hailed 'steps to end the division'
In deal reached Thursday, the two estranged Palestinian factions agreed on the straightforward issues, but the celebrations will likely be brief

In the heart of Cairo, rival Palestinian factions Hamas and Fatah signed a deal Thursday that supposedly ends 10 years of bitter conflict.
Yet nearly all the terms agreed upon have not been subjects of dispute for some time. The hardest issues, most notably whether Hamas will have to give up its estimated 25,000-strong fighting force and its weaponry, are still on the table, with no real solution in sight.
All that the deal addressed was the easy stuff, the civil issues — an excuse for both sides to celebrate and thank Egypt for its help.

Thursday's signing came after two days of negotiations in the Egyptian capital on the governing of the Gaza Strip as part of the most serious effort to date to end the 10-year rift between the rival Palestinian groups. (AP Photo/Nariman El-Mofty)
Will Hamas recognize Israel?
Why the skepticism? Well, let's start with what we know.
Keeping in mind that the full agreement has yet to be published, here are the publicized elements of the deal, either as announced in an Egyptian press release, stated during a news conference or reported by a source.
First, both sides agreed to enact the 2011 Cairo agreement, which mostly deals with setting up national elections.
Second, Hamas allowed the Palestinian Authority government to take over all ministries in Gaza. This was already a part of previous agreements, and in fact, the PA ministers already took back their offices in Gaza last week when a large PA delegation came to the Strip. What was new in Thursday's deal was the deadline given for the takeover to take place — December 1.
The groups also agreed to meet again in Cairo on November 21 to discuss more issues.
One interesting note about the Egyptian press statement is that it said the reconciliation is being carried out in accordance with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi's hope "to achieve an independent Palestinian state on the borders of June 4, 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital and a return for Palestinian refugees."
Hamas, while continuing to call for Israel's destruction, suggested earlier this year that it might consider a state in pre-1967 lines as an interim option on the path to an Islamic state in historic Palestine, including what is now Israel.
If Egypt is in the driver's seat, it may force Hamas to compromise and fully endorse a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza. That would mean recognizing Israel's right to exist, a key Israeli demand for the unity agreement and something Hamas has always refused to do.
A critical development is the agreement for the PA to take control of Gaza's border crossings with Egypt and Israel. In a press conference, the leader of the Fatah delegation, Azzam al-Ahmad, said members of PA President Mahmoud Abbas's presidential guards would be deployed along the Egyptian border.

The Associated Press quoted officials close to the talks as saying the sides agreed to set up committees to work out the outstanding details. One committee would have four months to determine who among thousands of Hamas civil servants would be able to join the new government. Another committee would merge 3,000 PA loyalists into Gaza's Hamas-run police force.
One gun, one law?
Notably, neither Hamas nor Fatah spoke on Thursday about the issue of the future of Hamas's military wing. Before the talks, it was on the tips of all the Fatah and Hamas leaders' tongues. Had the issued been solved, someone would have declared success.
Abbas was very clear before the talks began that he would not allow the terror group to keep its arms. "One gun, one law," he said, even threatening to arrest anyone without guns outside the state system.
In a statement on Thursday, Abbas called what was agreed upon in Cairo "steps to end the division." That division, he thereby casually acknowledged, hasn't yet ended.
Hamas spokesman Hazem Qassem, according to the Israeli daily Haaretz, admitted that the future of terror group's military had yet to be discussed.
"The next phase of reconciliation will be a meeting of representatives of all the Palestinian factions in Cairo to discuss the major national issues — such as Hamas's military wing, the issue of weapons and political positions," he said.

Just before departing for Cairo on Monday, al-Ahmad, the Fatah delegation head, told the Palestinian news site Quds Press, "We have crystal clear agreements before and after the division, and there is no need to talk about unnecessary things such as the weapons of resistance and the employees. These are obstacles that aim to spread frustration and despair."
Understandably, Hamas and Fatah, if they are serious about reconciliation, don't want to start by immediately discussing the most difficult issue. And from an outsider's point of view, the current reconciliation deal seems seem more serious than past attempts.
Ironically, Abbas is no stranger to this method of conducting negotiations, having been a party to various "historic agreements" with Israel that deferred to a later date thorny issues such as Jerusalem, borders and refugees. Yet, more the two decades since the signing of the Oslo accords, Israel and the Palestinians are no closer to solving the those issues.
The same is now true of Hamas's military — there is no clear path to compromise.
Should Hamas refuse to give up its guns, it's unclear how Abbas could walk back the emplacement of his government and thousands of policemen in the Strip. But the aging Palestinian leader surprised many this year by slashing funding for power, medical aid and government salaries in Gaza, bringing Hamas to its knees (and to the negotiating table) and proving that he can play hardball when he wants to — even if 2 million Gazans have to suffer for it.

Watch How Spike Jonze Made the Apple Ad That Had Everyone Talking
Go behind the scenes of "Welcome Home"
John Kim
Two weeks ago, Apple debuted "Welcome Home," a short promotional film that does what the best advertisements have always done, which is to blend commerce with art. Directed by Spike Jonze and starring FKA Twigs, the clip was ostensibly made to sell Apple's HomePod speaker, but it's really a showcase for Twigs' fluid dancing ability and Spike Jonze's singular creative vision, not to mention the supremely catchy soundtrack, courtesy of Anderson .Paak. Adweek has released a mini-doc that takes us behind the scenes of "Welcome Home," and the making-of is just as captivating as the finished product. It's no surprise that a massive amount of work went into the production, from the choreography to the construction of the set design. What's most surprising is the amount of practical effects that went into the magically malleable apartment. Head over to Adweek now to watch the short film.

Google father or mother corporate Alphabet's secretive X lab has birthed many a derivative, the latest of which is power corporate Malta. It's additionally accountable for Project Wing, the drone supply provider designed to beef up get entry to to items, and Loon, a balloon community that beams web provider to faraway spaces — to not point out driverless automobile corporate Waymo, lifestyles sciences corporate Verily, and cybersecurity intelligence offshoot Chronicle.
Dandelion is but some other graduate of X, the place it was once incubated for 2 years, and it's no much less bold than the remainder of its cohorts. The New York startup objectives to chop shoppers' electrical energy expenses in part with a geothermal, environmentally-friendly heating and cooling device — the aptly-named Dandelion House Geothermal Machine — that operates underneath constructions. Now, after putting in techniques in Upstate New York all through a six-month pilot and promoting 70 in present houses in 2017, it's scaling operations with a brand new spherical of investment.
Dandelion nowadays introduced that it has secured $16 million in financing from GV (previously Google Ventures) and Comcast Ventures, with participation from Lennar Company and former buyers NEA, Collaborative Fund, Floor Up, and Zhenfund, amongst others. Former Googler and Dandelion CEO Kathy Hannun says the inflow of money — which brings the corporate's overall capital raised to $23 million — will gas expansion and R&D, at the side of the outlet of recent warehouses throughout New York State.
As a part of the spherical, GV spouse Shaun Maguire and Comcast Ventures managing director Sam Landman will sign up for Dandelion's board.
"In partnership with world-class buyers together with GV, Comcast Ventures, and Lennar Company, the country's main domestic builder, in addition to with the continuing give a boost to of our present buyers, we're desperate to proceed to advance our challenge of enabling the popular adoption of geothermal," Hannun mentioned.
The Sequence A comes after Dandelion's acquisition of Geo-Connections, a geothermal software-as-a-service corporate that develops the underlying tech utilized in "tens of 1000's" of geothermal techniques around the U.S., in March 2018. And it precedes the huge release of Dandelion's 2nd product — Dandelion Radiate — that works with conventional radiators. Dandelion says that "1000's" of individuals are on its waitlist, and that it's New York's biggest residential geothermal installer through quantity.
Like maximum geothermal answers, the House Geothermal Machine faucets the bottom's power with plastic pipes and pumps, the latter of which can be put in in-home. The techniques transfer warmth from the bottom into the home when it's chilly out, and vice versa all through scorching spells.
However in contrast to run-of-the-mill techniques, which can be generally custom-built, Dandelion Air is designed to paintings in abodes of all shapes and sizes. It's additionally filled with a self-diagnostic processing and sensor package deal that autonomously assessments to verify gadgets are appropriately put in at runtime, and that displays quite a lot of efficiency metrics to spot problems that may happen.
Dandelion claims its device is 4 occasions extra environment friendly than furnaces and nearly two times as environment friendly as conventional air situation techniques.
That's now not the one factor that units it with the exception of the remaining. Set up is generally the trickiest a part of geothermal deployment — maximum firms use large drills designed to dig water wells at depths of over 1,000. Dandelion, in contrast, makes use of a tradition rig that bores smaller holes a couple of inches in diameter at shallower depths, enabling installers to finish jobs in not up to an afternoon.
Nonetheless, the in advance expenses are really extensive. Excepting per thirty days financing, they run between $20,000 to $25,000 — and that's now not together with the price of vents in houses that lack them. (An integrated Nest Finding out Thermostat softens the blow, however now not through a lot.) For the ones keen to fork over the money, Dandelion says the financial savings (with tax credit) will also be between 20 p.c to 70 p.c a yr, which goes out to more or less $135 a month over 20 years ($32,400).
There's various incentive but even so, to be truthful. Greenhouse fuel emissions from electrical energy intake — to which air conditioners give a contribution considerably — are forecast to achieve 2.28 billion heaps in 2050, whilst heating fuels lately generate 11 p.c of all emissions associated with the heating of houses and companies within the U.S., in keeping with the Environmental Coverage Company.

How Should One Read The Sources?
Question: What kind of intention does one need to read Kabbalistic sources if I read them alone, for example, at home or traveling on a train?
Answer: Understandably, it is preferable to study the sources together with others, but many times people read them alone.
However, the intention must always be one: on the basis of the written source, I want to receive knowledge about the correct interconnections of all of humanity into a single system.
According to the degree of our unity, we will become more compatible with the same higher, unique management system that manages all of the still, vegetative, and animate nature and humanity. We aspire to unite because through the connection between us we form a model within us of a higher, unique, and perfected nature.
The model that we feel within us will give us knowledge, power, and possibilities for us to feel that we are in a perfected world. We can change everything around us, including ourselves and society, and we will feel the higher eternal and perfect system. We transform ourselves to be like that system.
Therefore, when there is no possibility for a person to read or study together with others, he does it alone, but with the same intention.

DVD custom DVD case's for B5 uk
WRTWORTHY
My Point I was trying to make is that YES SEASON 4 box set was diffrennt, Its not in a book format but instead every one of the SIX dvd's has its own case and the Box is stil cheap looking.
However about WB Screwing the UK fans over, I also know they screw the US fans over just as bad and that WB just dont give a dame about one of the best shows ever made
Fortunie favors the Bold
So are you going to order some of these cases? I'll have some off you for certain if you do.

DonÆt get me started on release dates. <snip> You guys in the US have season 5, we are still waiting (November its out).
Plus maybe if they invested in the Cover-art a but more we would not have to do it our selfÆs, and make our own up, oh also maybe if they had invested a bit more in the actual Box we would not have to do this, (considering the Box looks all worn only after times Of opening it up)
Well said and damn right.
I Actually have three disks of the first season that intermittently fail because the crappy "DVD-book"-packaging damaged them. Thank the Great Maker for the slimline cd-cases they are now using for season 4.
It's very very annoying and very frustrating to lose all the artwork because the packaging doesn't do the job it's supposed to.
And why Warner Brothers cannot release the seasons for each region at the same time is beyond me. I take it they're burning the DVD's manually? With a staff of twe people?
BTW: This artwork that you mentioned that they sell; will it be possible to order slimline dvd-cases with Babylon-5 prints on it so I can shelve my original DVD-books and store the DVD's in new packaging? Otherwise I can't use this new packaging as I have the seasons in two different packaging-formats(and three different languages btw...(!!!)).

"En wat als tijd de helft van echtheid was, was alles dan dubbelsnel verbaal?"
I want perfection, I want my B5 collection looking good and kicking Ass, I am not getting this From WB, so why should I give a dame about a company that only care's about Money and profit and not what it puts out? They have to answer for a Lot in terms of how they have treated the franchise,
WRTWORTHY, I can certainly appreciate the feeling of being abused and of disappointment, but I don't think the discussion about property rights was missing the point. One of the big themes in Babylon 5 was taking responsibility for our own actions. The posters above were defining the situation from a legal perspective. This is good information to have, and having it you can make your own, personal decision. For me, I'm very particular about observing other's property rights. That doesn't mean that I haven't stepped outside the letter of the law in small ways before, but most of the time I'm strict about it. I can't settle taking something to which I'm legally not entitled with my conscience, regardless of whether anyone's likely to take notice, whether anyone might prosecute, or whether I don't see any actual harm to the owner. Admittedly, this is a small matter since no money is changing hands, but for me, I still wouldn't do it. Just my 2 cents, for what it's worth.

The custom artwork is a free download that you have to print.
Note that if the artwork was for sale, with or without cases, it would be for sure copyright and trademark infringement, no excuses, and no other way to call it.
As for UK vs US release dates: that decision is most likely in the hands of the UK division of WB. That final decisions would not be made by JMS of by WB headquarters.
Studios decide to release at different dates in different countries, it's a business decision, and it's a fact of life we have to live with... that's why they mayde the DVD format a protected one with different incompatible regions, so that there is some geographical control.
I suspect that if WB UK was convinced that there is enough demand for B5 to justify releasing at the same time that in the USA they would do it...
WRTWORTHY:
Don't let your resentment towards WB blind you to some facts:
WB didn't try to cancel the series. B5 was broadcast as part of PTEN ("prime time entertainment network") which was a distributor of shows under the "syndication" concept (sold to independent local stations, thus B5 could be seen in a Fox affiliate in one city, a UPN station in another, etc.)
WB was actually interested in the series continuing, the fifth season was negotiated with a cable channel (TNT) at the last minute. Without WB and TNT season 5 wouldn't have existed. It was JMS decision to try to finish telling the story in season 4. Check the archives and you'll find way too much info on that.
I didn't know that the TNT deal for season 5 meant that it couldn't be shown in the UK. I think that you may find it better than you expect if you keep an open mind and have patience. It's a good thing you'll finally get it on DVD. Hope you enjoy it.
Also realize that if WB didn't care about B5 the upcoming "The Memory of Shadows" movie wouldn't even be possible.
And the fact is that WB owns Babylon 5. They don't have to answer to anybody, not even to JMS, about any decisions they take with respect to B5... but as corporations go they have been surprisingly flexible and open in allowing JMS to retain creative control.
as corporations go they have been surprisingly flexible and open in allowing JMS to retain creative control.
Actually, that was one of the things JMS refused to sell.
What propelled this current situation was a confluence of things: the importance of getting some foot-draggers to move so we could still hit the November play-date and other details, but *most* important was the issue of the creative focus, the long-term plan for the show, and control over what we felt the show could become. Without that, you've got nothing on a project like this.
I'm leaving a lot out, of necessity, but from the foregoing it should be clear that what was at stake was the creative and organizational *heart* of the show, as well as other things.
So at some point in the game, you've got to push all your chips onto the table and turn the game into winner-take-all.
This was then conveyed. There was resistance. At 11:45 this morning, a call came indicating that if this was indeed the stance, then it looked like the project was dead in the water. My agents wondered if maybe there should be some flexibility. My associates were willing to stand by our decision.
"Let it ride," I said.
If it has to die, then let it die here and now.
As the clock ticked on, I began to think about the people we'd involved in this project, the years of work, the dedication that so many have already shown B5 within the team of production staff we've brought aboard. Had my inflexibility ruined something for all of them?
At 12:20, 35 minutes later, the phone rang again.
They blinked.
We're on...and all the provisos I'd held out for were accepted.
It's a terrible thing to look into the abyss... and thus a wonderful thing when you realize that you're not going to fall after all, that you've somehow skated past the precipice and come out alive at the other end.
The crisis is over, the situation fixed, and now at long last, we can settle down to the business of casting and building and rolling film.
The "we" who won in this situation is, I believe, everyone...thanks in large measure to people at Warners and at the Television Consortium who believe in this project, have believed in it from the beginning, and understood what it was that was at stake...and came through for us at the end.
And thanks as well to those here, who Quixotically volunteered to go forth and attack dragons in service of a place they had never even seen, which is, I suppose, the higest calling one can aspire to, to fight not for acquaintances, or the familiar, but for an *idea*.
So once again, my utmost appreciation. That the goal was achieved without the necessity of firing a shot does not in any way diminish the thanks due the volunteers in this extraordinary company. When next we assemble, I hope, it will be in the cause of celebration.
And today I have amended the B5 bible to include the following notation:
"The Babylon 5 station is located in neutral territory, in grid epsilon, at coordinates 470/22/18."
Boy, that JMS guy...he shore can write a lick, cain't he?
I have transferred my collection of B5 to the US Plastics cases (infinitely better at holding and releasing the disks) and used the alternate artwork to decorate them, and am examining my concience to see if I feel that I have in the least damaged WB's trademark, and come up empty.
Maybe I am amoral, but maybe the issue is kinda moot. Fan art is an homage to the series, not an attempt to steal it. Perhaps the law says that the homage is theft, but then the oldest known adage about the law (probably predating even "the first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers") is that "the law is an ass."
I believe that when we leave a place, part of it goes with us and part of us remains. Go anywhere in the station, when it is quiet, and just listen. After a while, you will hear the echoes of all our conversations, every thought and word we've exchanged. Long after we are gone .. our voices will linger in these walls for as long as this place remains. But I will admit .. that the part of me that is going .. will very much miss the part of you that is staying.
Well y'know, after we were dicked around in the UK by the change in packaging for season 4, I was seriously considering not buying the fifth season. Hell, I've still got it on tape if I really want to watch it. The thought of being able to replace the off-the-shelf packaging with custom artwork is the only thing bringing me back to the counter to make that purchase.


Apply for your Employment Authorization Document (EAD). This document confers the right to work in the United States for a certain period of time.
The EAD, as pictured below, is also known as an employment authorization card or work permit – physical proof of employment authorization. Generally, an employer will want to see the card before an employee can begin work. You can use Form I-765 to request an initial, replacement, or renewal EAD.

If you are still eligible for employment authorization but your EAD will be expiring or has expired, you should file for a renewal EAD by submitting a new Form I-765 and filing fee (if required), unless a fee waiver is requested and approved.

Dublin couple's marriage turning 70 years young
By Alan Elias |
On Tuesday, as he has done for the past 70 years, Ray Edwards will get down on a knee or find another creative way to once again ask his bride, Doris, to marry him. And, for the 71st time, she will say "yes." So goes a true, modern-day love story, one that the couple's six children, nine grandchildren and 21 great grandchildren call a "fairy tale" marriage.
First, a little history.
Ray and Doris met in 1941 during their sophomore years in high school in a small Ohio town not far from Bowling Green. Doris' parents moved the family into the town where Ray and his family already lived. Over the course of the next three years a romance blossomed and they agreed to get married as soon as possible following graduation in 1944 — especially knowing that with World War II raging on Ray would immediately go into the Army Air Corps.
There was one problem. In 1944 Ohio, a man could not be married until he was at least 18 years of age. No such rule existed for women. So, the couple's anniversary, Aug. 5, is also Ray's birthday.
"It makes it pretty easy to remember our anniversary," jokes Ray.
In January of 1945, not long after the wedding, Ray was called to active duty and sent to Biloxi, Mississippi, for basic training. Doris followed him and got a job as a clerk typist at the base, where they lived separately, but were at least close to one another.
Following his training, Ray was assigned to a base in Columbus, Ohio, and assumed he would soon be called into one of the war zones. He and Doris had seen several friends shipped off to war only to see gold stars placed in the windows of their friends' homes. Gold stars designate a soldier who was killed in action.
"That really changed our whole lives," says Doris.
It turns out that Ray was one of the lucky ones and never had to ship out. During the first weeks after being stationed in Ohio, the United States and its allies defeated the Germans in Europe, and the atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, hastening Japan's surrender.
The couple returned home to Ohio, where Ray went back to school, earned a degree from Bowling Green University and went into teaching. Doris cared for their first-born son and acquired a child care license to care for a few other children in order to help make ends meet.
They stayed in Ohio until 1962 when the growing family made the "big move" to California. They first settled in Castro Valley, and Ray began what turned out to be a 30-year teaching career at Chabot College.
"I taught mathematics. I really enjoyed it. I always wanted to be a teacher," says Ray.
A few years later Doris got a job at the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, and they decided to move to Dublin, which was essentially a middle point between their two jobs. They've lived in the same house for the past 45 years and have seen their children move on to begin lives of their own while the couple continued to celebrate their lives together in a very tender and loving way.
"It used to be that when we went to work we would pack our lunches, and quite often I'd find a note from him when it was noon time and I opened up my lunch," says Doris, who has kept all of Ray's lunch bag notes.
Core to their marriage, from day one, has been their effort to spend as much time as possible together. It's a closeness that continues today.
"They celebrate each other every day," says their daughter, Deanna McIntosh. "They are forever holding hands. They are their best friends."
The couple, who both have a great sense of humor, say they never dreamed a "couple of little country kids" would be together for 70 years.
"The secret (to our long marriage) is that we've never gone to sleep mad at each other, which is OK but has caused a lot of sleepless nights," jokes Ray, who quickly transitions into being serious when talking about his bride.
"She's the most beautiful, most talented and greatest woman in the whole wide world. She's a very wonderful lady."
"We still like each other and like being together. I don't think our marriage is in jeopardy," says Doris. "I can't even think of what it would be like without him."
The happy couple and their extended family and friends will watch Ray ask for Doris' hand while they celebrate the 70th anniversary a couple days early on Sunday at Bridges Golf Club in San Ramon. In case you were curious, the traditional gift for a 70th anniversary is platinum.
"I give him a contract year to year, and if he doesn't behave, I'll make it six weeks," says a smiling Doris, who admits she never grows tired of the tradition.
