Keith Davy Froome (* 11. Februar 1921 in Istanbul; † 24. Oktober 1995) war ein englischer Physiker.

In den 1940er und 1950er Jahren war es zwar möglich, die Wellenlänge (λ) des Lichts zu messen, aber es gab keine präzise Methode, die Frequenz () zu bestimmen.

Im späten 19. Jahrhundert ermöglichten Radio- und Mikrowellen eine neue Herangehensweise zur Messung der Lichtgeschwindigkeit. 1888, mehr als 200 Jahre nach Rømer konnte der Deutsche Physiker Heinrich Hertz die Geschwindigkeit der Radiowellen messen. Hertz kam auf einen Wert nahe bei 300.000 km pro Sekunde und bestätigte damit James Clerk Maxwell's Theorie, dass Radiowellen und Licht zwei Formen der gleichen Elektromagnetischen Strahlung seien. Eine weitere Bestätigung konnten Froome und Louis Essen zwischen 1940 und 1950 liefern, indem sie Mikrowellen, beziehungsweise Radiowellen zur Messung einsetzten.

Froome erzeugte eine elektromagnetische Welle mit 72 GHz und sendete sie durch sein Interferometer. Die Mikrowellen wurden in zwei Strahlen aufgeteilt und durch zwei identische Metallrohre zu zwei Detektoren auf einen freibewegbaren Wagen geleitet. Die Änderung der Position des Wagens änderte auch die Pfadlänge der zwei Strahlen und verursachte somit Interferenzerscheinungen in den Detektoren. Daraus konnte er eine Wellenlänge von circa 0,4 cm ableiten und errechnet daraus die Lichtgeschwindigkeit mit einem Wert von 299.792,5 ± 0,3 km/s. Froome veröffentlichte seine Ergebnisse 1958.

In den späten 1960er Jahren übernahmen Laser die Erzeugung hoch definierter Frequenzen und Wellenlängen.

1961 erhielt Froome den Wolfe-Award, 1963 den Moseley-Preis; 1967 wurde er mit der Duddell-Medaille des Institute of Physics London ausgezeichnet.

The song I created "William's Song" was composed to convey happiness by using high pitched synths and a nice combination of kicks, snares, and hi-hats. For the synths, I used preset settings on Soundtrap, titled "Popcorn" for the first chords and "Surface Lead" used for secondary chords combined with secondary drums. The same process was repeated on the drums, with the presets "Pop n' Snap" for the kicks and secondary drums "Old School Tape" for the snares, and "Gorilla" for the crashes. The entire song was made with free music software called Soundtrap.

St. John's rewarding spark plug Rasheem Dunn with another start
By Zach Braziller
January 14, 2020 | 10:36pm
Rasheem Dunn will remain in the starting lineup after providing a spark in St. John's win over DePaul on Saturday. Robert Sabo
st. john's red storm
St. John's has no answers for Marquette, Markus Howard
St. John's is a great bet despite poor Big East record
This year's NCAA Tournament appears headed for true madness
Painful St. John's cycle continues in loss to Seton Hall
In need of a spark, Mike Anderson inserted Rasheem Dunn into the starting lineup. It resulted in the first league win for St. John's. The new Red Storm coach isn't going to mess with a good thing.
Dunn, the Brooklyn native and Cleveland State transfer, will remain a starter as the Johnnies hope to build on Saturday's win over DePaul. Anderson doesn't usually commit to his starters before the day of the game, but Dunn made such a convincing case.
"Rasheem earned that opportunity to be in the starting lineup," Anderson said in a phone interview as St. John's prepared to visit Providence on Wednesday night. "He gives us another opportunity to score and create."
Dunn finished with 19 points, a team-high eight rebounds, five assists and two steals against DePaul. The team's third-leading scorer, Dunn has been one of the Johnnies' most consistent offensive players, reaching double figures in 10 of 13 games, providing another option after LJ Figueroa and Mustapha Heron. Still, he was coming off the bench until recently. But with St. John's struggling to find points and digging itself early holes, Anderson made the change.
St. John's first Big East win can't mask troubling trend
Four games into its Big East schedule, St. John's is...
"He's getting more comfortable," the first-year St. John's coach said. "He's trusting his teammates and I think they're trusting him. He's always been a guy who can score the basketball. You're playing with other guys as good as you are now. You have to make them better."
The 6-foot-2 Dunn is averaging 3.3 assists, but 4.3 over his last three games. The change also seemed to galvanize demoted starter Julian Champagnie, who had 11 points, four rebounds and three assists against DePaul. It was by far his best performance in four Big East contests.
But now St. John's (12-5, 1-3 Big East) is back on the road, where it is 0-2. While Providence had a disappointing non-conference performance, going 7-6, it enters this game 3-1 in the league, with the lone loss against No. 5 Butler.
"Providence is a very physical, veteran basketball team. Our job is to come in and give ourselves a shot to win [the game at the end]," Anderson said. "We have to match their physicality, especially on the boards. We have to defend, take care of the basketball and most importantly shoot the basketball [well]. That's something we haven't done on the road."

Sage Business Cloud Financials is recommended to professional services firms (especially highly mobile ones) and non-profit organizations.
Aaron from DeRosa Mangold Consulting, Inc.
Built on the Salesforce platform so it can handle any number of users. Sage has initially targeted the small business segment with Live, however it is just as good for mid-market or enterprise. Consider the following features: Capable of handling 1-1000+ users. SAAS (hosted and browser-based) so no software to install. No server needed. Multi-Company consolidation Inter-Company transactions Dimensional accounting Multi-Currency Multi-Language Purchase Requisition/Approvals and Workflow Easy setup but can be configured as complex as you want, it's a very open database if you choose to use it that way Open API, integrates with many other web-based apps Well integrated with SalesForce Tablet and iPhone/Android apps These types of features are typically only available in enterprise level software like Intacct, Acumatica, Financial Force, X3, NetSuite, Oracle or SAP. You won't find this in Quickbooks, Freshbooks, Xero, Sage 50 or any other entry-level system. There's always been Microsoft Dynamics, Sage 100/300/500, Epicor, Infor and others, but those aren't true cloud based/browser based systems, nor are they inexpensive. What's unique about Sage Live is that they've priced it to be affordable for most companies - starts at monthly for 2 users and 1 company. 2 users and 100 companies is only $$$d/month. That is ridiculously less expensive than the other enterprise level systems out there. You can certainly use Sage Live as a small business, but the nice thing is that as you grow you can stay on the same system and not feel the need to change. If you are a mid-sized or large company, you owe it to yourself to take a look at Live before you make a decision on spending lots more money for perhaps the same thing.
It has only been around for 3 years, so it's not as fully developed as some more mature offerings out there. They are adding new stuff all the time but you might find some features missing that you are used to.
Sage has so many features! We use it for inventory, invoicing, accounting and much more!
It requires training to learn. You have to know what you are looking for and learn where Sage stores that information.
Speaking from a non-finance position, this tool has been very helpful to allow my staff to easily track all of our financial operations. I enjoy the clear, and simple printouts to give me a snapshot of specific accounts or our overall financial picture.
The software itself works great in a silo. I have had some trouble trying to link it with some non-profit donor tracking software which has meant double entry rather than a smooth sharing of information between systems.
It works great for small firms and can scale up as the company does. It takes away the need to set-up a separate server to host all of the accounting, CRM and financial that we need, so that's a huge plus. Customer service can be easily reached and are data always more than helpful, even for simple questions that new users tend to have.
Do not take the sales video/demo as something you can achieve on this product. They are nearly three years in with the product and it is not fit for purpose.
When they finish the product it will be great. Do not consider purchasing this until they have or you have a fulltime salesforce developer within your finance team.
The worst customer support I have ever experienced in 20 years of software support. Not fit for purpose.
They release "upgrades" each month that they have clearly haven't tested as large parts of functionality stop working once they release it. It takes several weeks each month to firefight and fix these problems before they release another update and inevitably another part of the system goes wrong.
To top this all off on this dog of a programme, I recently found out that Sage will no longer be developing this product and will drop it for another program in the near future.
Stay away from this program if you don't have someone who understands the problem to an expert level.
The customer service is always good and they help you build reports if you're having trouble so that's really helpful.
The actual reports available aren't the best for financials. It would be better to have a 3rd party financial reporting software.
If I could give Sage a zero I would.
Our company didn't benefit from this product whatsoever.
Customer support. Very, very poor customer support. I do not recommend this product for anyone who is interested in Cloud Accounting software. Our account was set-up and handed over to us without offering training. They referred us to their "Sage University" for training which was cumbersome to find what we were looking for.
Built on Salesforce, keeps the CRM and accounting together. The concept is great. Sage Live has good problem resolution.
It's a new product for Sage so there is a big learning curve. The only major problem we had was that they referred us to an implementation partner (Edgeware) that didn't know the product well and made promises they couldn't keep. In the end, Sage Live was helpful in resolving the issues that Edgeware couldn't or wouldn't resolve.
Great product. I have used much worse and better. I am a new user so still learning.

Q: How to get MoPub to start showing advertisements in Android? I integrated Mopub ads in my application. Application is running fine but in ads banner section all I can see is:

WELCOME TO MOPUB!
Click Here To Test Ads.
you can now set new campaign to serve other ads.

I cannot find any solution for this like why this is not showing any type of ads.
I have not published my app to play store, only waiting for MoPub to work perfectly fine so that I can push it to play store.

Please suggest what to do?

I don't even know the meaning of the word "effortless" anymore. As if that was ever in the equation of bad girls.

"DiscordAPIError: Cannot edit a message authored by another user".

All the relevant code:
message.channel.send("Flipping coin...").then(
    setTimeout(() => {
        message.edit(`Heads! You won ${amountOfChange} GP! [Total balance: ${data[msgSenderID].bal}]`);
    }, 2000)
);

A: The error is pretty self-explanatory, you are trying to edit the message of the user that ran the command.
TextChannel#send returns a Message that needs to be passed as an argument to the arrow function.
param => expression

message.channel.send('Flipping coin...').then(coinFlipMessage => {
    setTimeout(() => {
        coinFlipMessage.edit(`Heads! You won ${amountOfChange} GP! [Total balance: ${data[msgSenderID].bal}]`)
    }, 3000)
})


Blooms are a porous mass of iron and slag resulting from the smelting of Iron Ore in a Bloomery.
The output from a bloomery is a Raw Iron Bloom. The Raw Iron Bloom will have a percentage value of its iron content, where each percent is equal to a single unit of metal (100 units of ore will result in a 100% bloom, enough for a single Wrought Iron ingot). Note: If enough ore wasn't initially added to the bloomery, and it results in a bloom that is less than 100%, it cannot be refined and must instead be thrown back into the bloomery with more ore to make it larger.
WARNING: When bringing a Raw Iron Bloom up to working temperature, be careful not to let it melt or the Bloom will be lost.
Raw Iron Bloom >= 100% Refine Refined Iron Bloom Work on at least a Tier 2 anvil.
Raw iron blooms that are less than 100% cannot be refined, and must be thrown back into the bloomery with more ore to create a larger bloom.
Refined Iron Bloom 200% Split Refined Iron Bloom 100% x2 Only needed for blooms over 100%. If starting bloom isn't a multiple of 100%, it will split into as many 100% blooms as possible as well as a single bloom with the remaining %. For example: A 360% bloom will split into 3 100% blooms and a single 60% bloom.
Refined Iron Bloom < 100% Melt Unshaped Wrought Iron Melt refined iron bloom into wrought iron in the forge with a ceramic mold in the side slot, or in a crucible.
Melting refined iron blooms under 100% in the forge will give partial unshaped ingots, which can be combined if both are at liquid temperature by using the casting interface, or by using a crucible.
WARNING: Melting a refined iron bloom over 100% in the forge will result in only 1 unshaped ingot. Any excess metal will be lost.
See the Bloomery for more details.

Q: JavaFX stage icon I'm trying to deploy a JavaFX application with Eclipse/Ant + InnoCompiler. I'm able to set an icon for the stage and it is correctly visualized on the application bar when I run the application from Eclipse. However when I deploy the app and I install it, the stage icon is replaced by an horrible java gray icon. I want to remark that the installer icon (set by Inno script) works great.
How can I fix it?
The icon is set with:
topStage.getIcons().add(new Image(getClass().getResourceAsStream("css/myImage.png")));

Thanks in advance.

Continuing on my path to reviewing every pizza in NEPA, I decided to go corporate again and try out Uno Chicago Grill in Dickson City. I have to admit, the place has been on Commerce Boulevard for years and I've never even thought to go try a pizza. I was on my own for this review so I snuck in quickly and prepared to review. As I looked around, the whole place kind of reminded me of an old railroad station or something with a very industrial feel including exposed brick, dark wood, and pipes running the length of the whole place. When I was seated at my booth, I thought it was pretty neat that instead of napkins, Uno installed a paper towel dispenser at the table - just something I considered different and novel.
As I looked the menu over, i feared to have another repeat of my last corporate experience at the Olive Garden with seemingly very high prices when compared to the mom and pop pizza shops. I opted for the Numero Uno personal deep dish pizza, which specifically states it's for one person, and the price tag was a staggering $10.45. Now, common sense told me to keep my standards low at a chain restaurant, but the nearly $11 price tag for a personal pan pizza raised my standards very high again. I was given 2 complimentary breadsticks with garlic dipping oil which was tasty, and went a little ways toward justifying the price tag.
After a brief wait, my waitress, who was excellent, brought the pizza to be reviewed. For some reason, I happened to be watching Cougartown on my Samsung Galaxy Note , and she caught me so that was a little embarrassing, but I digress! The pizza itself was very tiny, six, maybe seven inches at best but it was quite deep and packed full of topping. It was cut into 4 miniature slices, and the toppings included sausage, pepperoni, onions, peppers, and mushrooms. Toppings were layered on, and really they were the story of this pizza. The pie (and I stress the term "pie" because it resembles the construction of a desert pie) was so thick that the toppings never had a chance to cook through. The vegetables essentially steamed themselves in the greasy, moist, and runny environment that they created for themselves. The topping distribution was a bit off as the undercooked onions were pervasive and abundant. The sausage reminded me of crumbled breakfast sausage which didn't have much for texture or flavor. The Mushrooms were tiny and nearly nonexistent. I understand that it would be a miracle to cook such a thick pizza all the way through perfectly in short amount of time, but when toppings are raw and soggy, it doesn't bode well for the review.
The crust itself wasn't as thick as you would imagine, but it was deep and held a lot of toppings. It was pretty dry and flavorless and reminded me more of a biscuit than a pizza crust. Although it was slightly crispy in the beginning, the crust became very soggy and saturated within 2 minutes of removing the first slice. The sauce was a chunky tomato sauce that was lightly seasoned, but the tomatoes were bitter. The cheese was your average mozzarella and was really there to hold the pizza together.
I will say, I have limited experience both in making and reviewing Chicago Style pizzas, but in using my experience from other pizza genres, I would first recommend baking the pizza longer at a lower temperature. I would have also preferred if the toppings were arranged in a different order and cooked in stages. For example, the veggies which take longer to cook could have been spread on the bottom and cooked first, then the pepperoni, sausage, and cheese could have been added half way through. This would have allowed the veggies to cook through and allowed some of the moisture to evaporate. I have a few more recommendations, but they would include changing the actual ingredients and are impractical.
Ultimately, this pizza was decent, although the frozen pizza I received in the mail from Lou Malnati's was much better cooked in my conventional oven. Although the pizza was loaded with toppings, the price was outrageous for such a small pie. For all of the reasons I listed above, unfortunately I cannot recommend this pizza to my readers, but I will say it is one of the few places in NEPA that you can get a Chicago Style pizza that is "Authentic." Many places create a round Sicilian pizza and call it Chicago style, so at least Uno has that going for them! Other than that I will give the service and cleanliness of the place high marks, and the rest of the menu items did look appetizing.
PQ that has to be my favorite comment of all time! I think your assessment of one glance at the pie accurately sums up my whole article! You're always spot on. Thanks!

JOSE MOURINHO: THE ANTAGONIST BECOMES THE ANTAGONISED.
The Law Students' Blog. October 29, 2018 October 28, 2018 Opinion, Sports Yarn
The Manchester United manager has over the years, painted himself as a serial winner and someone who relishes taunting opposition coaches he has triumphed over through his actions and utterances. Due to his tendency to do this from time to time, the self acclaimed 'special one' is usually a recipient of intense backlash from the press and legends of clubs he has had the opportunity to manage for words he has uttered or actions he has displayed on the pitch, in his technical area, during interviews or the conference room while performing his media duties before or after a match. Since the inception of his coaching career at Benfica, to handling Uniao de Leiria, Porto, Chelsea(two different stints), Inter Milan, Real Madrid in subsequent years and currently Manchester United, he has always courted controversy in different manners imaginable.
Having built such an infamous image for himself, Mourinho should expect or have expected as the case may be that getting a taste of his own medicine along the line until he calls it quits would be inevitable. Opposition coaches who Mourinho have clashed with one way or the other would certainly bear grudges against him and are relishing the opportunity to get back at him, the press on the other hand are ready to pounce on and probably misconstrue whatever he does or says occasionally owing to the fact that Mourinho's reputation would most times be the focal point of any feud pertaining to him irrespective of his true intentions.
In hindsight, some of Jose Mourinho's actions might have been taken not to anger oppositions but for the betterment of his team but unarguably, a vast majority of what he has done was aimed at drawing the ire of oppositions he has come across. Renowned for his mind games, there are numerous things Mourinho has done that if elaborated on might make this write-up seem unending or inexhaustible but there are notable and memorable ones that has continued to linger on the minds of football faithfuls.
It is safe to say that Mourinho's coaching career came into limelight when he was acting in the capacity of Porto's head coach, especially the 2003/04 season when he knocked Manchester United (his current employers) out of the Champions League at the Round of 16 stage which culminated in a UCL triumph that same season. After the match against Manchester United, Mourinho stated in his post-match conference that he understood Ferguson would be disappointed with the result because Ferguson's team was bested and dominated by an opposition team that had been built on ten percent of Manchester United's budget. This certainly was a bitter pill the opposition had to swallow coupled with the fact that Mourinho had sprinted down the Old Trafford touchline to celebrate with his players after the last-gasp goal that saw Porto go through to the quarter finals.
At Inter Milan where Mourinho won the treble in the 2009/10 campaign. En route to his UCL triumph at the end of that particular season, his Inter Milan team disposed of Barcelona at the Semi-finals. Despite losing 1-0 in the return leg at Camp Nou, Inter secured a final berth with a 3-2 aggregate win. At the end of the match, Mourinho went on a euphoric run around the Camp Nou pitch gesticulating at everyone present until Victor Valdes stopped him in a bid to put an end to his moment of craziness. Mourinho's point was undoubtedly taken, he had knocked out the club where he was once served as an assistant coach.
As Real Madrid's coach, Mourinho did not desist from his antics. In 2011, Mourinho poked Barcelona's assistant coach at the time, Tito Vilanova, in the eyes during a touchline altercation. An action for which he subsequently received a two-match ban which was eventually lifted. Also, in a UCL game against Manchester City in 2013 in which Cristiano Ronaldo scored the winning goal in the dying stages of the match to make the scoreline 3-2. Mourinho, hellbent on adding salt to City's injury, deemed it inconsequential to violate laid down rules and encroached on the pitch by sliding on his knees onto the Santiago Bernabeu pitch in celebration much to the chagrin of his opponents.
During his second stint as Chelsea's manager, Mourinho notably drew the ire of a number of opposition managers. He did not leave it at that, as he often aimed veiled swipes at match officials for which he was fined on different occasions. Mourinho's most memorable spat in Chelsea's colours aside from when he wrongly dismissed Eva Carneiro was when he labelled Gunners' coach at the time, Arsene Wenger, a 'specialist in failure' due to Wenger's inability to deliver a trophy for a number of seasons. Subsequently, in an October 2014 Stamford Bridge clash between both managers' teams, Mourinho and Wenger were involved in a touchline clash that almost resulted in a physical show of power but for the timely intervention of the officiating referee.
Currently, Mourinho is the manager of Manchester United, a club whose fans had once hated him and stilll, the club has enjoyed its own fair share of Mourinho's irksome nature. In Manchester United colours, he has received touchline bans as well. A noteworthy event was the tunnel clash in the aftermath of the Manchester derby of the 2017/18 season at Old Trafford. Manchester City had defeated Manchester United and had arguably sealed their title fate in December by winning the match in question. As the situation demanded, there was euphoria within the ranks of City's players and technical crew and as such the Cityzens resorted to playing music and cheering noisily in the dressing room allocated to them. Mourinho would not have it and challenged the City team for celebrating loudly. To cut the long story short, City's assistant coach Mikel Arteta was left with a part of his face blooded and Mourinho's coat was allegedly soaked with milk after a brawl occurred involving both United and City's players due to Mourinho's earlier remonstrations.
More recently, Mourinho's name has sprung up for the wrong reasons yet again. This issue having to do with Chelsea's last-gasp equaliser against Manchester United in their recent EPL match at Stamford Bridge. What stood out for many was the fact that Mourinho took exceptions to the manner in which Marco Ianni (Chelsea's second assistant coach) carried out his celebration of Chelsea's equaliser. Unsurprisingly, Mourinho's reaction to Chelsea's second assistant coach's celebration in front of his technical area has come under intense scrutiny and criticism because he charged after Ianni down the tunnel with undiluted vexation after Ianni had earlier swung his fists in front of a seated Mourinho while celebrating Chelsea's goal. Mourinho was however prevented from confronting him by the stewards meanwhile a massive melee had erupted.
Looking at it closely, if Mourinho had not built for himself a reputation of spiting oppositions, then Marco Ianni would not have been propelled to jubilate the way he did as he was merely treading on Mourinho's footprints. It is rather ironic that Mourinho would find fault with Ianni's actions, after all he is the grandmaster when it comes to doing things of that sort. It is a clear case of Karma as the tides seem to have turned and Manchester United's recent performances have continued to make him an object of scrutiny. With the way things are going, Mourinho might be getting more jibes from opponents in coming weeks if his team keeps playing the way they currently are.
Hopefully, Mourinho will learn to refrain from taunting future oppositions because 'one bad turn deserves *******!'

As the title indicates, there is a place in southern Germany where something curious happens. The waters that run along the Danube River, heading towards the Black Sea, disappear into the Danube Sinkhole to reappear at a short distance, but in the Rhine River basin, which follows a completely different direction to the Danube until it flows into the North Sea.
The Danube is born in the town of Donaueschingen, in the Black Forest of Germany, after the junction of the Brigach and Breg rivers. From there it flows some 2,888 kilometers (1,771 mi) to the east, passing through 10 countries, until it empties into the Black Sea, in the territory of Romania.
In its upper basin, more precisely between the towns of Immendingen and Fridingen, the Danube Sinkhole takes place. Here, the waters disappear underground approximately 155 days a year due to a karstic system and appear 11.8 kilometers to the south, in the town of Aachtopf, and at a height of 180 meters lower.
When the water resurface in that new place, it become part of the Aach River, which integrates the Rhine basin.
In this way, the water captured by the Danube Sinkhole change course and instead of going to the east of Europe, it will go to the north.
Since 1874 there is news of the existence of the Danube River Sinkhole and the place is frequented by tourists who want to experience the experience of walking along the dry riverbed.
Meanwhile, in Aachtopf, the waters suddenly emerge forming a small lagoon that gives life to the Aach River.

Ruby is a popular programming language that comes installed on your Mac and can be accessed in the Terminal. You can use the Rub command line interpreter to run simple programs in a single line. You can also write more complex programs in a text file and run them. This gives you similar functionality to using BASIC on the Apple II.
Closed captioning for this video is available on YouTube: MacMost Now 885: Using Ruby On Your Mac.
Hi this is Gary with MacMost Now. On today's episode let's take a look at how to create short little programs on your Mac using Ruby.
Now if you have been using computers for a long time you probably remember back when, say on your Apple II, you could type in a programming command and get a response. Or just type in a simple basic program and run it. Well you can't really do that with modern computers with Macs and Windows' machines. You have to use some sort of app to create a program. But Mountain Lion has a program called Ruby built in that you can access through the Terminal window and for me it is very reminiscent of how you used to use Basic on an Apple II.
So I have just run the terminal app here to open a simple terminal window and I'm going to type in Command irb which will launch the Ruby interpreter that is installed with Mountain Lion. You can see I get a new prompt there and I can start typing Ruby commands.
Right away we can type some simple math in and get a result there. So you see I can use this as a calculator. You can put in fairly complex things maybe more so than you usually do using a calculator or the Spotlight menu.
Now you can also go and use variables. So I can do say a=6, b=7, and get the result of a*b. But you can do even more than this. You can do something like loops for instance. So Ruby loop might look like this. I'm going to use a ; to fit everything on one line. I'm going to puts to output here and I'm going to do i*2 so I should get multiples of 2 and "end" and the loop. You can see there that it runs my program there and gives me the output, 0,2,4,6,8,10, and then it gives the output for the total thing which you can ignore here, it is the return value of this line. In this case it is this that we are interested in.
You can also even get into arrays. For instance I can create an array like this of just some names and it puts that value in there. Then I can do a for loop, put a space there, and you see I get this string typed out three times with the different values there.
I may want to create an array an easier way like this and then you split and now notice this. If I use the up arrow I can go back to previous lines without typing them. So I can jump back to this line right here and hit return. It just saves me the time of having to type this again and I get new output because I've changed the value of "a".
Now if you are not a programmer you might not understand what it is I am doing here. But you can learn Ruby pretty easily. Just search for Ruby tutorials and there are tons, I mean dozens or even hundreds of quick little tutorials and ruby is a very easy language and a good language if you haven't programmed before. So you may want to go through some of those tutorials and after you get the hang of things then you can go back and use irb to try out some commands.
Now I can also enter Ruby commands into a program file. So I can create a program I can easily reuse. I am going to use the nano text editor. You can use vi or anything you want as a text editor. Or even just use TextEdit or an app like Textwrangler or BBEdit to create these and then run them in terminal.
So I'm just going to create example.rb and it is just a blank file here. I'm going to create an array of numbers and then a simple for loop. puts to output everything double and end. So it is a simple set of commands and I can exit and save it example.rb and I use ruby and then example.rb to run it. You can see it runs it and I can run it again. So I can edit it now, change the values, things like that.
Here is something that is slightly more useful. I'll set some input, for example2.rb and I'll set a = to the results of get string. Strip off the return character has to be done and converted to an integer and then I will put the output of that times three. This is a simple program here. If I were run it it is going to prompt me for a number. I'll do 7 and you can see it returns 3 times 7.
So really just scratching the surface here. My main point is to show you this Ruby interpreter and that you can create short little Ruby programs on you Mac very easily. So just look at some tutorials and learn a little Ruby if you want to learn how to write some quick programs on your Mac.
Thanks for the Ruby video. I missed the old Apple II access to Basic. Looks like Ruby interpreter might fill the void.
This is great! I made a simple phone book which shows telephone numbers when typing in a name, or the person's name when typing in a phone number (for those times when you have that proverbial slip of paper with no name on it). Also good as an e-mail list.
Interesting video Gary. I didn't know Ruby was built into the terminal. Before I sit down and learn Ruby, could you give me some examples of some practical uses where Ruby can be used? I have some C programming experience but have never encountered Ruby. What could I use it for?
Hard to answer your question — it is a programming language like any other. It is like asking what can you use C for? It depends what environment you are programming in and what you are trying to do. I'd imagine that with the right tools, you could do anything. But it doesn't mean it is the best or right tool for a specific job. There are plenty of Ruby resources online for you to check out.
Thanks for your thoughts Gary. I'll have a look around the net.
Thanks for the video. I had no idea that it was built-in to the Mt. Lion terminal.

'They were children' — Seattle's St. James Cathedral vandalized over 'residential school' graves
Posted on Monday, July 5, 2021 - 8:50 am by jseattle
Friday morning's vandalism echoed messages painted on Catholic churches like this Saskatchewan cathedral
Seattle's St. James Cathedral on First Hill was vandalized Friday morning in property damage echoing a wave of protest following the discover of hundreds of unmarked graves at the site of the former Marieval Indian Residential School in Canada's Saskatchewan province.
According to police, the 9th Ave Seattle cathedral's large bronze door was found early Friday covered in red paint that read, "How could you? They were children," vandalism causing "thousands of dollars" in damage and "consistent with what the church is seeing at several churches in Canada."
Late last month, the doors of a Roman Catholic cathedral in downtown Saskatoon were splattered with red paint after the Cowessess First Nation announced the discovery of 751 unmarked graves at the former school. Earlier this year, remains of 215 children were found near the former Kamloops Residential School in British Columbia.

Outrage over the deaths and cover-ups led to a wave of protests again Canada Day on July 1st. In the United States, the Independence Day holiday brought another wave of events and activism.
Saturday, protesters marched through downtown Seattle in a "Cancel Independence Day" demonstration "to honor the memory of the 1323 Indigenous children who lost their lives at residential schools in Canada." A memorial was also held Sunday at Alki Beach.
Washington also has its own history of "mission schools" — boarding schools from the early 20th Century formed to organize education of Indigenous youth in federally organized or subsidized facilities.

Marosatherina ladigesi male
Marosatherina ladigesi female
Marosatherina ladigesi
Celebes Rainbowfish
Telmatherinidae
The island of Sulawesi (formerly known as Celebes, hence the common name of the fish), Indonesia
Inhabits clear, slow-flowing streams around foothills and estuarine areas.
3.2″ (8cm).
30″ x 12″ x 12″ – 70 litres.
This rainbowfish is ideally suited to a heavily planted setup and will show its best colours in such surroundings. The use of floating plants to dim the light a little is also recommended. Allow open spaces between areas of planting to provide swimming space and areas for males to display at one another. High water quality is essential to the well-being of this species, so weekly partial water changes are recommended. Contrary to popular belief, it doesn't require the addition of salt to its water, although it can tolerate mildly brackish conditions.
pH: 7.0-8.0. It will not do well in acidic conditions.
Hardness: 10-25°H
An easily-fed species, it will accept most dried, frozen and live foods. Feed a varied diet for the fish to show the best colouration.
To find high quality fish foods, click here.
Very peaceful and suitable for many community aquaria given its relatively small size. Good tankmates include other species that prefer hard water, such as similarly-sized rainbowfish, livebearers and freshwater gobies. In the brackish tank it can be combined with smaller, peaceful species such as mollies, halfbeaks, gobies etc.
Like some other rainbowfish it can be quite skittish and does far better when kept in a shoal of at least 6-8, preferably more. The males will also be encouraged to display their best colours in the company of conspecifics. Try to provide 2-3 females per male.
Males are the more colourful sex and develop beautiful extensions to the second dorsal and anal fins.
As with other related species, this is not a difficult species to breed, being an egg scatterer. That said, the fry can prove somewhat tricky to raise in the early stages.
The breeding aquarium should be at least 18″ long, and contain slightly hard, alkaline water with a pH of around 7.5 and a temperature of 72-74°F. A small air-powered filter will provide sufficient oxygenation and flow. The tank should be filled with fine-leaved plants such as java moss, or nylon spawning mops. No substrate is necessary. The adult fish are best conditioned in a group in a separate aquarium with plenty of live and frozen foods. As the fish come into condition the females will appear noticeably plumper, and males will display to each other almost constantly. Select the fattest, best-coloured pair for spawning and introduce them to the spawning tank. A small drop in temperature can often induce spawning. The pair will spawn for a period of several weeks, laying batches of eggs each day. These are attached to surfaces by a small thread. The adults tend to eat the spawn, and it's easier to raise the fry in a separate aquarium, so we recommend checking the plants or mops regularly and removing any eggs you find to a raising tank containing water from the spawning tank. The eggs hatch in 5-10 days, depending on temperature, and the minute fry initially require infusoria–type food, before graduating onto free swimming foods, such as brine shrimp nauplii, after a week or so. Sinking foods are unsuitable as the fry tend to stay very close to the water surface.
For many years, this species was included in the genus Telmatherina, and is still listed as such in much of the avilable literature. In fact it's now the only species in the recently erected genus Marosatherina. Unfortunately, it has been overfished for the aquarium trade in its native waters and is listed as 'vulnerable' on the IUCN red list of threatened species. Thankfully, it's now being mass-produced on fish farms in both the Far East and Eastern Europe, meaning that fewer wild caught specimens are available as a result.
Despite the abundance of information to the contrary, the celebes rainbow not particularly difficult to maintain in the aquarium, provided its basic needs are met. Pristine, medium to hard water on the alkaline side of neutral will prevent many of the problems often associated with this fish. It is very sensitive to rapidly changing water conditions though, so ask your dealer what water they're being kept in when you buy. Perform a slow acclimatisation process if the water is very different to your own.

Back in October, Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo presented us with the first installment of the event called 'Death of the Family' in the pages of 'Batman'. In this story, The Joker has returned from Gotham after not having been seen in a year and he has his sights set on Batman's allies, collectively known as the Bat Family. From issue 13 onward, we've seen Joker pull this sick and twisted plan together, but now, the story is coming to an end this week as issue number 17 is being released and we'll finally find out what the Clown Prince of Crime has up his sleeve for Bruce Wayne and his kids.
I don't even want to speculate on what has happened to Alfred because I don't want to be right. I'm having flashbacks of when I first read the last book in the 'Harry Potter' series and I got to the page where Hedwig died. Scott Snyder, you cannot do this to us!
I'm afraid to ask this question because I don't want to know the answer: What do you think happened to Alfred? Are you ready to rush out of your cubicles when the working day is done to pick up the finale of 'Death of the Family'? Share your comments below, and be on the lookout for our review of 'Batman' #17 later this week!

Bonnie Li wants you to die on 'I Want You To Die'
By Michael Marottaon October 19, 2018
Never has the suggestion of death sounded so good. That's because Bonnie Li offers up her wish for your untimely demise, via new single "I Want You To Die", with such spooky seduction, it's hard to not just shrug and give in to her macabre proposal. This isn't a threat, per se, but a suggestion.
The China-raised, Berlin-based musician has described her pulsating electronic-pop track as "if The Ronettes were doing a jam with The Kills in a movie by David Lynch," and that works for us. It's also being hailed as a slight departure, musically, from the sound of Li's forthcoming 2019 album Wǒ Men, which is a bummer because we're really vibing on what's heard here. But we're not gonna say anything to her about it, because she already wants us dead.
"Wǒ Men represents this quest to get my identity back," Li says of the LP, "this feeling of being lost, of guilt, an anxiety attack permanently suppressed, this feeling of suffocating under strong and happy appearances. 10 different tracks as 10 different searches for oneself. It's organic, dynamic and fragile, distorted as a mirror to my emotions and fears, sensitive and dark."
Ok scratch that, this sounds all incredible. Just please grant us an extension of life.

Why should you accept credit cards from your customers?
If you are not accepting credit cards and debit cards now, you may be losing sales and taking unnecessary risks. The following are a few ways you can increase sales and lower your risk.
Credit cards increase your customer's purchasing power. Your customer is not limited to the money in their pocket or even to the money they have in their bank account when purchasing your goods and services.
Almost all your customers have at least one credit card, and they use them whenever credit cards are accepted. Some consumers choose merchants because they accept their credit cards.
