This is a chart of Zalinki's route, September 1946
Responsibility : Salvage Master
The Zaliniski Operation was an effort mounted in 2013 by the Canadian Coast Guard, to remove the fuel from the 1946 wreck of the American transport ship, USAT Brigadier General M.G. Zalinski. The Zalinski hit the rocks and sank in the Grenville Channel in British Columbia during a squall in the pre-dawn darkness, in September 1946 and was lost. She was not found again until the Canadian Coast Guard began searching for the source of mystery oil spills in the usually pristine waters of the Grenville Channel.
The Canadian Coast Guard landing craft pushed up against the steep rocky face. We scrambled over the bow to drag the heavy steel padeyes up to the relatively flat spots at the top of the rocky face where we planned to mount them, bolted to heavy threaded rod set in holes drilled into the solid rock.
The water was clear, and the rock face sheer. I could see deep into the water where the submarine rock wall was populated with sun stars, large white anenomies and clusters of tube worms and strands of bull kelp.
I had a picture of this sheer slate cliff in my mind when I read Captain Joseph Zardis' account of feeling his ship, the USAT Brigadier General M.G. Zalinski hit the rock, tearing her open as glanced back into deep water. The scars of steel on slate were weathered away, but I knew that we were very near where she hit.
Zalinski's Last Passage
It was reports of bad weather out in the open Pacific which had made Zardis decide to take the "Inside Passage" from Puget Sound to Whittier. His ship was heavily laden, carrying mail, munitions, trucks, food. At 2330 September 26, 1941 USAT Brigadier General Zalinski dropped her pilot at Port Angeles, and turned NNE to pass east of Vancouver Island.
Though protected from the weather, the Inside Passage is a demanding route. Without radar or depth sounders, pilots steered by compass and stopwatch; dead reckoning from point to point, taking bearings off lighthouses and prominent features of the landscape to get cross bearings to triangulate and make distance off and speed calculations. Poor visibility complicated pilotage, strong tidal currents, and darkness made it more difficult still. In the thick weather Zardis reported feeling his way along by sounding the ship's horn, and listening for the echo off he rocky cliffs, a trick he likely learned from sailing ship captains feeling their way along the rocky steep-to coasts of the Pacific coasts of California and Oregon.
About 2300, September 28th, the Zalinski was passing Work Island. She had covered more than 500 miles since her departure. Zardis had been on the bridge for 18 ½ hours, piloting through the rock bound channels and passages. The visibility had deteriorated, the wind was southeast gusting force 6 to 7, with rain squalls sweeping across the area. Zardis slowed the Zalinski to half speed before handing the con to the pilot. He instructed the pilot to call him if the weather deteriorated further, and went to his cabin to sleep. Three and a half hours later, Zardis was awaken by the sound of the engine being brought back to full speed. He glanced out the porthole and saw that the weather had cleared. The Zalinski would have been coming around the south end of Gribbell Island. An hour and a half later, at 0358, Zardis was torn from his sleep Zalinski crashed into the slate wall which forms the eastern shore of Pitt Island, along the left bank of the Grenville Channel.
Soundings quickly established that the ship was sinking by the bow. Zardis gave the order to abandon ship at 0415. As the life boats pulled away, Zalinski was lost in the darkness and rain. By first light nothing was left on the surface but an oil slick and flotsam.
In the 1990's the Canadian Coast Guard began to get sporadic reports of oil in the water in the southern Grenville Channel, in the middle of what the First Nations call the Great Bear Rainforest. Because of strong tidal currents, it took some years to establish that it was the wreck of the Zalinski which was leaking. In 2011 a Mammoet Survey Team ran side-scan surveys of the wreck and produced a report for the Canadian Coast Guard. In September 2013 Mammoet Salvage Americas was awarded the contract to remove the fuel from the wreck.
Naval Architect Han Schiet was tasked with finding the oil. Han had drawings of the ship. She was built in 1919 in Ohio for the Great Lakes trade, one of a class of more than a hundred built by the US Shipping Board at the end of the First World War. She was a riveted steel, coal-fired steamship named Lake Frohna (Hull number 765). In 1924 she was sold and renamed Ace, and became part of a small fleet known as the "Poker Fleet." Her sister ships were named, "King," "Queen," "Jack," etc. She was sold again in 1930, but kept the name "Ace." In 1941 the US Army Transportation Corps bought her, and named her after Brigadier General Moses Gray Zalinski, a decorated veteran from World War I who died in 1937.
Somewhere along the line the ship which would become the Zalinski was converted from coal to oil. Some of the tanks originally designated as feed water tanks were likely converted to carry oil, as well as some of the coal bunker tanks, but Han had no "as built" plans. He studied the original plans, and as a naval architect tried to think of how he would have converted her. Then, based on those guesses, and the position of the wreck on the bottom, he laid out a program of test drilling to test his assumptions.
When the divers began to test drill on the wreck, some of what Han guessed proved true, but there was also oil where there shouldn't have been. Han decided that divers needed to get inside the forward hold to inspect the bulkheads and tanktops, see if they were still intact.
Global Diving, Mammoet's dive contractor on the project, had brought a VideoRay, a small inspection ROV. The divers cut a hole in Zalinski's side shell just large enough to insert the ROV for the internal inspection.
Unfortunately, nobody had counted on the wreck being the home of a 2 ½ meter Giant Pacific Octopus. As soon as the VideoRay's lights were switched on, and it was launched through the hole in the ship's side, the octopus captured it, and hauled it away into the farthest corner of the hold. The divers had to cut a hole large enough for a diver to go and rescue the VideoRay. When the diver got inside, he saw that the forward bulkhead had wasted away completely. The distinct tanks, which were part of the original structure of the ship, and part of the plan for removing the oil, were gone. The bunker fuel which was left was migrating freely into the highest points of the upturned hull.
Based on the new information, Han changed the test drilling plan to include areas not part of the original tankage. The test drilling showed that not only had the oil migrated into unexpected areas, but that there was a lot less than the 400+ tons the bid was based on. With the Coast Guard informed of the findings, the Coast Guard and Western Canada Marine Response Corporation (WCMRC) mobilized their response boats to be on location in case of a spill as Mammoet and Global Diving hot-tapped the hull in multiple locations, and began pumping off the oil. Being as cold as the surrounding water, the Bunker C fuel oil flowed like cold molasses.
The team pumped each of the hot tap points until the returns were mostly salt water. After the first round of pumping, the team made a second round, pumping until the visible pump returns showed only trace amounts of oil.
There was recognition with the Canadian Coast Guard that over time the oil left in pockets scattered through the wreck would migrate to the high points in the hull, to the Mammoet hot-tap points, and to that end Mammoet was requested to leave the hot-tap valves in place so the wreck could be revisited, and additional oil which had collected could be pumped off.
As far as the Giant Pacific Octopus (Enteroctopus dofleini), the ROV was not the first encounter. Diver Alan Deaver was on the wreck one night early in the project when he saw the octopus swimming toward him. "I used to work at the Monterey Bay Aquarium and have worked a lot with octopus," he said. "I recognized that it was a dofleini, and they are not aggressive, just very intelligent, friendly and curious. He came right up to me and wrapped himself around me, feeling my helmet and regulator, checking me out. I'd have liked to spend some time playing with him, but they're paying me to work, so I just peeled him off and gently shooed him away."
It was during the final stages of pumping, in a mixture of snow and rain, that Roger Girouard, a retired Rear Admiral in the Canadian Navy a and the Canadian Coast Guard's Assistant Commissioner, Western Region, brought a delegation, including the First Nations representatives, to see the operation first hand, to look at, touch and smell the oil which the team had pumped from Zalinski. "Not only has the pollution risk been removed,"Girouard said, "but it was done safely. From the beginning I said that nobody was hurt the night the Zalinski sank some 70 years ago, and we weren't going to hurt anybody now. We haven't, in spite of some very difficult conditions at times. Credit for that, and for the success of the project, goes in no small part to the teams from Mammoet Salvage and Global Diving."


Once more CLR pays respect to the intriguing music on Motor's recent Man Made Machine album and releases another exiting remix package.

E-book format (available Aust/NZ only): Herman and Rosie – Gus Gordon (iTunes affiliate)
For the clever use of mixed-media.
Facing the challenge of interweaving two
character story lines harmoniously
Creating a sensory feast of sounds, texture,
movement and colour.
The book cover design is of a groovy jazz vinyl record in a slipcover.
The cover is not too busy and has a good contrast of light and dark colours.
Most importantly, it includes both the main two characters of the story with the word 'and' between them possibly hinting at the two separate story lines.
The style of the cover is also consistent with the mixed media style of the illustrations within the book.
Gus has included a double spread map of New York (near Governor's Island) on the end pages.
The map has this lovely dated feel through its old fashioned font and muted down colours.
I like how over the top of the map is free handwriting with arrows pointing to where the two characters live in relation to each other plus a food recommendation.
Like the book cover design, the end pages hint to the mixed media style of illustrations that follow.
Gus is definitely passionate about collage.
I lost count of the types of mixed-media materials used throughout from bits of old music scores to newspaper clippings, mathematical grid paper, New York maps and tickets, splotches and stains from tea, illustrations drawn over old postcards, accounting records, torn clothing patches, photoshop digital images to a combination of water colour, chalk, crayon and lead pencil.
Despite the huge variety of mixed-media materials, Gus is subtle in his approach to the point where you have to take a second glance and look up close to work out what the different material is.
How he mixes the different mixed-media, produces a feeling of old alongside new.
Highlights include-
1. The night time city skylines in cutouts
2. The blend of panels, vignettes, double spreads leading up to a beautiful up close shared scene between Herman and Rosie. A scene with no words but doesn't require them.
3. The use of colour to emote, from a rich red when Herman first hears a music piece to the dark dirty splotches of water colour in the 'blue moment' scene when everything has gone wrong for the characters.
4. I particularly enjoy the line work. It has an ease of movement. Gus sketches in black crayon and is not afraid to show imperfections which adds to the flow of the illustrations. He also has come up with a handwriting font for his speech bubbles and signage. Very clever indeed!
Who doesn't love a story that starts with 'Once upon a time' and has a character driven plot with two lovable lonely characters that long for friendship. What can beat that? How about the use of the lovely literary technique of bringing the story full circle with the first and the last page including the words 'Once upon a time in a very busy city'.
To evoke the sounds and atmosphere of living in a city, Gus uses repetition and onomatopoeia. To tackle the difficult task of interweaving two story lines, Gus uses repetition in having similar length of sentences, describing the characters in similar scenes (ie at work and at home) and have Herman and Rosie follow a similar character arc.

I grew up the middle child in a family with three brothers and one sister, two parents, one grandmother and an ever growing number of cats, all relegated to living outside (only when my parents weren't watching). I attended Catholic grade school and high school.
I can remember the time when I was in first grade and a Sister was preparing our class to receive our First Holy Communion. Her hands would form a chalice and host while she spoke to us. She told us that this first encounter with Jesus was so special that we should really think about what we were going to say to Him when He comes. I can't remember if Sister gave us a few ideas to consider or if it was my own original idea, but I remember so clearly that first precious encounter and what I prayed. "Jesus, help me be a good girl, to love you always, and when I grow up make me a Sister." As a child growing up this simple prayer became a part of my prayers each night before I went to sleep.
I can never remember not wanting to be a Sister. In my simple mind, I just couldn't imagine a life without having God at the very center of it. As early as third grade I began writing simple poems about what God meant to me and my desire to be a Sister one day. I have continued to capture my life experiences in free verse up to the present day. Much of it speaks to my relationship with God and how I sought meaning and direction in my life from Him.
I was raised in a very devout Catholic home and our faith was always central to our family life, and so that natural nurturing was always there. I was determined to enter the convent after grade school and began writing religious communities in 7th grade. I'm sure my parents would not have approved, much less given me permission. Then came time to enter high school and I became so excited and wrapped up in those activities that I totally forgot about the idea until I was into my Freshman year and already immersed in volleyball, basketball, track, Mission Club, Sodality of Mary, Swim Team and the many other extracurricular activities. My parents then told me I should wait until after high school because they felt it would be good for me to experience those years at home with my family and they were right.
In my junior year of high school I can remember saying to God: "It's wonderful to know you want me to be a Sister, but you didn't tell me there are hundreds of communities. How am I supposed to know WHERE you want me to go?" So I started setting up dates to visit a few communities and each time the date approached I was sick and unable to go. The only community I was finally able to actually visit was our community, The Sisters of the Third Order of St. Francis. I knew that first visit, this would be my new home. I applied and was accepted to enter the fall after my high school graduation.
My parents were very supportive and happy. However, my brothers thought differently. My oldest brother, Pat, didn't like the idea; he saw me so active and involved in so many things and was afraid I would be locked up somewhere, never to go anywhere or pursue higher education. Guess what brother first heard when so many opportunities were wonderfully provided for me IN the convent!
I was like a second mother to my youngest brother, Mark, because of our 10 years age difference. He handled my departure from home differently. He was in second grade when I entered and accompanied my parents on my entrance date. I had sewn my own red A-line dress to wear when I entered and when it was time for my family to depart, they were given my clothing to take back home. My parents told me later that my little brother was in the back seat and so quiet on the ride home. When they turned to check on him, he was holding my red dress and tears were coming down his face.
Now, they know I couldn't be happier. My Dad once said to me: "You have the BEST BOSS of all." And indeed, I do, and friend and confidant, and spouse, and Wonderful God!


We just learned about the Hair Growth.
Another part of the human hair is the Plexus.
These are very small nerves that are wrapped around the bottom of the hair follicle, that sense when the hair is moved.
They are very sensitive, which is how your body can feel a light breeze through the hair on your skin.


The new song isn't particularly great.

With this news comes a rather moody video for 'Forever', which sort of sounds like a pissed-off Pete Doherty struggling to come to terms with how his life panned out. It's not all bad though - the trumpeter is pretty great.


Mason Clark Associates provided comprehensive structural and civil engineering design work for Sycamore Place, a desirable residential project located near to the historic City Centre of York. Within a conservation area, the development consists of one detached and four terraced townhouses created with a contemporary look, but respectful of the existing Victorian terrace.
As there is existing archaeology on-site, foundations of the dwellings were designed in order to have the minimum of impact on these historic remains. We also designed and detailed flood protection and flood storage for the full extent of the site.

An LVN program in Texas, like other similar programs across the United States prepares students to become efficient professionals in the healthcare field. This program helps give basic nursing care to patients in hospitals and other medical related settings.
Students in the state of Texas normally complete an accredited LVN program successfully in one or two years.
If you have decided to enroll in an lvn program in Texas, the first step you need to take is to find out which schools or colleges offer this program. They must be accredited by the Texas Board of Nursing. The Texas Board of Nursing performs the dual function of approving nursing schools, as well as provides licensure to graduate nurses who have completed accredited LVN programs.
You can also find a list of all the schools that provide approved LVN programs, accredited by the Texas Board of Nursing, on the board's official website.
How can you get admission into an LVN program in Texas?
What can you expect to learn from LVN programs being offered in Texas?
There are several types of LVN programs currently being offered in Texas. These programs include a diploma or certificate program and an LVN associate's degree program.
The syllabus of an LVN diploma or certificate has been devised in such a way that it focuses on courses such as pharmacology, physiology, medical nursing and human anatomy.
Almost all of the schools that offer this program, in addition to theoretical coursework also include practical or clinical classes. These classes prepare students for real world scenarios. Students learn how to apply theoretical coursework in medical or hospital settings.
The curriculum of an LVN associate's degree program may be successfully completed in two years. In addition to building upon the basic foundation and focusing on core topics related to vocational nursing such as fundamentals of vocational nursing, adult health and client care, the associate's degree gives the students a well rounded perspective by introducing them to general coursework such as mathematics, English language, communication, microbiology and social science.
Some schools also include topics such as advanced pharmacology and physiology. These act as foundation units or prerequisites for a bachelor's degree in nursing science.
These LVN programs also emphasize on building indispensable skills in the students so that they may be able to become efficient professionals in the field. These skills include detail orientation, patience, speaking or communication skills, interpersonal skills, compassion for patients and physical stamina.
The next step for students after completing an accredited vocational nurse program is to apply for licensure. In order to acquire a vocational nurse license, the students must pass the National Council Licensure Examination, more commonly known as the NCLEX-PN. This licensure requirement is valid through all the states.
Although getting certified is not obligatory for a licensed vocational nurse, acquiring a certification in related areas such as IV therapy and gerontology may confirm comprehensive knowledge and professionalism.
According to the website O*NET Online, 738,000 people were employed in 2012 as licensed vocational and practical nurses. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) concluded that the top 10 percent licensed vocational and practical nurses working in Texas made more than a median salary of $58,500 in 2013.
O*Net Online projected 363,100 new job openings in the United States for licensed vocational and practical nurses from 2012 to 2022.
BLS estimated that this employment growth rate is approximately 25 percent and thus is much faster than the average employment growth rate of all occupations.
LVNs in Texas have consistently earned more over the years. Statistics show that LVNs in Texas have earned an increasing median annual salary from 2009 to 2013. In 2009, LVNs earned $39,750 while in 2013, they earned $42,930.
Q:Can you tell me how to become a LVN in Texas?


I took a look around the open space in Hanworth Park on Thursday and returned this morning (this time without leaflets). I am thrilled to bits by what I see as it is yet another demonstration of turnaround. The West Area, especially open spaces in the Hanworth Park ward, suffered the greatest from maintenance cuts imposed by the previous administration. It was always going to take a while to turn things around. Item 10 (question) of this was tabled towards the end of 2007. All of the Conservative Councillors in Feltham have been pushing for improvements and I really believe that these have been delivered – with more improvements on the way.
The biggest complaint in the past was regarding the lack of grass cutting. I have not seen such complaints or problems for quite some time – well done Cllrs Lee, Stewart, Jabbal & Williams on the political front and to the team who have delivered the improvements on the ground. The extra £2 million in increased maintenance would not have been possible had the administration not introduced a more commercial approach towards managing finance & resources.
I got talking to one lady who was walking her dogs and we agreed how great things were. She was from Sunbury and I was glad that she has made such a great choice to visit Hanworth Park so regularly. It is a stunning open space.
The Regional Labour Party has decided that the above should be candidates at the local elections in the Cranford & Hounslow Heath wards respectively. I wonder whether Mr Ellar recalls me predicting (wrongly) that he would chicken run before the 2006 from Hanworth Park to Hounslow Heath? At least now, I am only wrong on the timing.
My view is that these two wards, especially Cranford, will be more interesting than in a generation. Labour will not be able to take it for granted and they are wrong if they think that either of these are safe.
It is pretty well known that I am not great pals with either of the above but I make no apology for remaining appalled by what I saw during their times as Leader of the Council between 2002 & 2006. The Borough Council Meetings at the time were a shambles whereby the majority of Executive Members were unable to answer legitimate questions put to them. The amount of things we [as an administration] have turned around since also highlights that the legacy we inherited was not great (lots more things to improve for the next administration but the legacy they will inherit is, on the whole, is a very good one and brilliant in some cases). This all makes these two wards even more important when the campaign gets underway.
I have commented on this issue previously so this will not surprise too many people.
Trees for Cities in partnership with Green Corridor, CIP and Hounslow Council have been undertaking a three-year community tree-planting project within Hanworth Park.
The first stage (year 1) was celebrated by tree planting with a Woodland Fun Day last Saturday. I do not think that the weather could have been much better, though I wore my hat that has received quite a bit of commentary of late. I took my daughter along and, as you will see, she had her face nose painted.
Compared to many other London Boroughs, we are very lucky with the amount of green spaces that we have. Nevertheless, I do like initiatives like this, especially the exposure that this gives to younger residents.
I am informed that 1500 whips were planted at the event with further whips to be planted by corporate volunteers and school children. Many congratulations (and thanks) to all!

Q: Is there a way to 'uniq' by column? I have a .csv file like this:
stack2@domain.example,2009-11-27 01:05:47.893000000,domain.example,127.0.0.1
overflow@domain2.example,2009-11-27 00:58:29.793000000,domain2.example,255.255.255.0
overflow@domain2.example,2009-11-27 00:58:29.646465785,domain2.example,256.255.255.0
...

I have to remove duplicate e-mails (the entire line) from the file (i.e. one of the lines containing overflow@domain2.example in the above example). How do I use uniq on only field 1 (separated by commas)? According to man, uniq doesn't have options for columns.
I tried something with sort | uniq but it doesn't work.

A: If you want to use uniq:
<mycvs.cvs tr -s ',' ' ' | awk  '{print $3" "$2" "$1}' | uniq -c -f2
gives:
1 01:05:47.893000000 2009-11-27 tack2@domain.example
2 00:58:29.793000000 2009-11-27 overflow@domain2.example
1

A: If you want to retain the last one of the duplicates you could use
 tac a.csv | sort -u -t, -r -k1,1 |tac

Which was my requirement
here
tac will reverse the file line by line

A: sort -u -t, -k1,1 file

*

*-u for unique

*-t, so comma is the delimiter

*-k1,1 for the key field 1

Test result:
overflow@domain2.example,2009-11-27 00:58:29.793000000,xx3.net,255.255.255.0
stack2@domain.example,2009-11-27 01:05:47.893000000,xx2.net,127.0.0.1

A: To consider multiple column.
Sort and give unique list based on column 1 and column 3:
sort -u -t : -k 1,1 -k 3,3 test.txt

*

*-t : colon is separator

*-k 1,1 -k 3,3 based on column 1 and column 3

A: awk -F"," '!_[$1]++' file

*

*-F sets the field separator.

*$1 is the first field.

*_[val] looks up val in the hash _(a regular variable).

*++ increment, and return old value.

*! returns logical not.

*there is an implicit print at the end.

A: Here is a very nifty way.
First format the content such that the column to be compared for uniqueness is a fixed width.  One way of doing this is to use awk printf with a field/column width specifier ("%15s").
Now the -f and -w options of uniq can be used to skip preceding fields/columns and to specify the comparison width (column(s) width).
Here are three examples.
In the first example...
1) Temporarily make the column of interest a fixed width greater than or equal to the field's max width.
2) Use -f uniq option to skip the prior columns, and use the -w uniq option to limit the width to the tmp_fixed_width.
3) Remove trailing spaces from the column to "restore" it's width (assuming there were no trailing spaces beforehand).
printf "%s" "$str" \
| awk '{ tmp_fixed_width=15; uniq_col=8; w=tmp_fixed_width-length($uniq_col); for (i=0;i<w;i++) { $uniq_col=$uniq_col" "}; printf "%s\n", $0 }' \
| uniq -f 7 -w 15 \
| awk '{ uniq_col=8; gsub(/ */, "", $uniq_col); printf "%s\n", $0 }'

In the second example...
Create a new uniq column 1.  Then remove it after the uniq filter has been applied.
printf "%s" "$str" \
| awk '{ uniq_col_1=4; printf "%15s %s\n", uniq_col_1, $0 }' \
| uniq -f 0 -w 15 \
| awk '{ $1=""; gsub(/^ */, "", $0); printf "%s\n", $0 }'

The third example is the same as the second, but for multiple columns.
printf "%s" "$str" \
| awk '{ uniq_col_1=4; uniq_col_2=8; printf "%5s %15s %s\n", uniq_col_1, uniq_col_2, $0 }' \
| uniq -f 0 -w 5 \
| uniq -f 1 -w 15 \
| awk '{ $1=$2=""; gsub(/^ */, "", $0); printf "%s\n", $0 }'

A: well, simpler than isolating the column with awk, if you need to remove everything with a certain value for a given file, why not just do grep -v:
e.g. to delete everything with the value "col2" in the second place
line: col1,col2,col3,col4
grep -v ',col2,' file > file_minus_offending_lines

If this isn't good enough, because some lines may get improperly stripped by possibly having the matching value show up in a different column, you can do something like this:
awk to isolate the offending column:
e.g.
awk -F, '{print $2 "|" $line}'

the -F sets the field delimited to ",", $2 means column 2, followed by some custom delimiter and then the entire line. You can then filter by removing lines that begin with the offending value:
 awk -F, '{print $2 "|" $line}' | grep -v ^BAD_VALUE

and then strip out the stuff before the delimiter:
awk -F, '{print $2 "|" $line}' | grep -v ^BAD_VALUE | sed 's/.*|//g'

(note -the sed command is sloppy because it doesn't include escaping values. Also the sed pattern should really be something like "[^|]+" (i.e. anything not the delimiter). But hopefully this is clear enough.

A: By sorting the file with sort first, you can then apply uniq.
It seems to sort the file just fine:

Q: PowerShell check for Azure Storage Container existence I am creating a PowerShell script to perform several steps and one of them involves an Azure Storage Container removal:
Remove-AzureStorageContainer ....

The next step is dependant of this removal is done.
How can I be made aware that the previous REMOVE was successfully performed so as to continue execution on the next step ?
Something like;
while(Test-AzureStorageContainerExist "mycontainer")
{
    Start-Sleep -s 100
}
<step2>

Unfortunately 'Test-AzureStorageContainerExist' doesn't seem available. :)

A: You can request the list of storage containers and look for a specific one and wait until that isn't returned anymore.  This works okay if the account doesn't have a ton of containers in it.  If it does have a lot of containers then this won't be efficient at all.
while (Get-AzureStorageContainer | Where-Object { $_.Name -eq "mycontainer" })
{
    Start-Sleep -s 100
    "Still there..."
}

The Get-AzureStorageContainer cmdlet also takes a -Name parameter and you could do a loop of asking for it to be returned; however, when the container doesn't exist it throws an error (Resource not found) instead of providing an empty result, so you could trap for that error and know it was gone (make sure to explicitly look for Reource Not found vs a timeout or something like that).
Update: Another option would be to make a call to the REST API directly for the get container properties until you get a 404 (not found).  That would mean the container is gone. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd179370.aspx

A: A try/catch approach:
try {
    while($true){
        Get-AzureStorageContainer -Name "myContainer -ErrorAction stop
        sleep -s 100
    }
}
catch {
     write-host "no such container"
     # step 2 action
}

A: This works
$containerDeleted = $false
while(!$containerDeleted) {
    Try {
        Write-Host "Try::New-AzureStorageContainer"
        New-AzureStorageContainer -Name $storageContainerName -Permission Off -Context $context -Verbose -ErrorAction Stop
        $containerDeleted = $true
    } catch [Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Storage.StorageException] {
        Start-Sleep -s 5
    }
}

If you look into the error message being returned the exception code it is container being deleted

October 26, 2019 Stout wins 2OT thriller over Stevens Point MENOMONIE (October 26, 2019) - UW-Stout had a chance to win in the first overtime, but a missed field goal brought it to a second overtime. The offense scored on a 16 yard touchdown pass and the defense forced a fumble, recovered the ball and stormed the field for the 38-31 win over UW-Stevens Point Saturday at Don and Nona Williams Stadium. The Blue Devils (2-5, 1-3 WIAC) stopped Stevens Point (2-5, 1-3 WIAC) in the first overtime. The Poitners were called for holding on first down, then were sacked twice for 19 yards. Mason Priebe intercepted the Pointers' Matt Urmanski on 3rd-and-39, but Stout missed an opportunity to take the game in the first overtime on a missed 29 yard field goal. Stout had the ball to open the second overtime and capitalized on 4th-and-1 when quarterback Sean Borgerding hit Tyler Seymour for a 16-yard score. The Pointers had the ball and, after getting a first down to the Stout 13, the Blue Devils' Aaron Wisecup forced a fumble and Haydon Miller hopped on the ball to seal Stout's first conference win of the season. John Smoczynski John Smozynski scores one of his two TDs. / Photo by Patrick O'Conner On the first drive of the game, UW-Stout took nine plays and 77 yards and ended it with a 6-yard John Smozynski touchdown reception from Borgerding for Smozynski's first collegiate score But the Pointers answered back on the ensuing kickoff when Donovan Lucas returned the ball 78 yards to tie the game at 7-7 at the 11:03 mark of the first period. After punts by both teams, the Blue Devils took a drive for 11 plays and ended with another John Smozynski receiving touchdown from Sean Borgerding to make the first quarter end in favor of Stout, 14-7. But the Pointers wouldn't back down. The offense found their groove and Markell Outlaw caught a long touchdown pass from Matt Urmanski. The touchdown play went 83 yards and the score was back to even. The Pointers would take their first lead with 5:41 left in the first half. Jonte Webb scored on a 16 yard touchdown pass from Urmanski. Stevens Point went for two, but the failed to pick up points and the score was 20-14. The Blue Devils got back on the board on a Shaheen Ameen three yard touchdown run to regain the lead at 21-20. Stout would kill some clock at the end of the second half and took 4:40 off the clock. With only 55 seconds left in the half, the Pointers went down the field and kicked a field goal to take the lead going into half. The score going into halftime was 23-21 in favor of Stevens Point. With very good defense by both sides, there was no score in the third quarter. Ameen Shahan Ameer scored his first collegiate TD. / Photo by Patrick O'Connor The fourth quarter saw a lot of back and forth action as both teams tried to seal the win. With 7:31 left in the game, the Blue Devils' Alex Benzinger made a 39 yard field goal and Stout took the lead, 24-23. Only 2:39 after Stout took the lead, Stevens Point's Devin Baldridge caught a 22 yard pass from Urmanski. The Pointers two point conversion was good and was looking at a 31-24 score. With only 4:35 left in the game, Stout drove the ball quickly and scored on a Sean Borgerding 11 yard touchdown run. The extra point by Benzinger was good and the score was tied up at 31-31. Stevens Point had a chance to take the ball and end the game with points, but the Stout defense came up big and stopped them. With the big defensive stop, the Blue Devils looked to regain the lead and win the game. But the Pointers' defense came up big and the game was headed to overtime. In the first overtime, Stevens Point had the ball first and on a 3rd and 39, Blue Devil's Mason Priebe intercepted a ball thrown by Urmanski to give Stout a chance to win the game. With Stout on the 23 yard line, the Blue Devils had a chance to seal a win, but the kick was missed wide left. In the second overtime, Stout started with the ball and was looking at a 4th and 1 on the 16 yard line. On a hard count, the Pointers' defense jumped offside and Stout was looking at a "free play". Borgerding threw a pass in the endzone and Tyler Seymour grabbed it to score the touchdown. The score was 38-31 and the Pointers had a chance to tie the game. On a first and 10on the 13 yard line, a Stevens Point running back took the carry. But Aaron Wisecup forced a fumble and Haydon Miller hopped on the ball to end the game. Sean Borgerding had 287 through the air and also had three touchdowns. Borgerding also had a career high in rushing yards with 149 and also scoring a touchdown. Pointers' Matt Urmanski ended the game with 266 yards through the air and three touchdowns. Shahan Ameen had 10 carries for 44 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Nick Arguedas also had five carries for 23 yards. Kevion McDonald led the receivers with 136 yards with nine catches. Tyler Seymour had five receptions for 51 yards and big 2OT touchdown. John Smozynski had two catches for 10 yards and both catches led to touchdowns. Up next for the Blue Devils is another home matchup against UW-River Falls on November 2 at 1:00pm.
September 11, 2018 Chronicling a comeback Down 17-0 in the third quarter on Saturday, UW-Stout not only was back on its heels, it hadn't scored a point all season. But the Blue Devils came back to win by blocking an extra point in overtime. Joe Sager brings you the oral history of the comeback, through the eyes of five key participants.
September 8, 2018 Roundup: Week 2 is rally time UW-Stout, Franklin & Marshall and Beloit were among the teams that rallied from second-half deficits to post victories in Saturday's action. Stout won on a walkoff blocked extra point, Beloit won on a field goal with 22 seconds left and F&M just won going away.
September 10, 2017 How to pull off an upset It takes aggression. Fourth downs, fake punts, and two-point conversions all factored into the weekend's biggest upsets. Snap Judgments looks at how those games shake up the national championship race.
September 9, 2017 Top 25 wrapup: Tommies toppled; UWW 0-2 Concordia-Moorhead sent the Warhawks to 0-2 for the first time since 1999, while St. Thomas fell at UW-Stout and Bridgewater grabbed perhaps its most significant win since 2003. Saturday's Top 25 wrapup.
November 14, 2015 Whitewater runs past Blue Devils in season finale It's a big enough task to take on the two-time defending national champion, but to have to play without your starting quarterback made the task all the harder as UW-Whitewater defeated UW-Stout, 63-14, in the Blue Devils' season finale at Warhawk Stadium Saturday.

> India U-15s finish Thailand Tour in style
India U-15s finish Thailand Tour in style
Fistosports
The India U15 National Team wrapped up their exposure trip to Thailand in style with a convincing 2-0 victory against Assumption United FC today (August 9, 2018). The Blue Colts, in the process, scored 17 goals and conceded only 4 goals in four matches to maintain the 100% winning record during this tour.
Sridarth, who had already scored six goals in three matches before, broke the deadlock in the 40th minute before substitute Shubho Paul doubled the scoreline in the 59th minute to seal the victory.
Coach Bibiano Fernandes made two changes in the starting line-up from the previous match, putting Lalthangliana and Himanshu Jangra in replacing Sibajit Singh and Shubho Paul respectively.
India, who kicked off with more intent, could have breached the opponent defence in the 4th minute but Sridarth's shot was collected by the goalkeeper.
Lalthangliana, who started his first match in Thailand, fired it from inside the box but it got jammed in the goalie's gloves in the 20th minute.
Five minutes to the half-time whistle, Yoihenmba put in a brilliant cross for the target man Sridarth who slotted it home to give India an edge at the end of the first half.
At the stroke of the hour-mark, Shubho Paul, who replaced Taison Singh after the resumption, extended the lead from a well-placed cross by Maheson.
Assumption United FC attacker Jejthipat Wongyee shot it from wide but goalie Aman Sahani made an acrobatic save to maintain the comfortable lead in the 89th minute.
Eventually, India hung on to the 2-0 lead until the final whistle to secure the win.
Bibiano Fernandes' boys will now compete in the SAFF U-15 Championship Kalyani 2019 which is scheduled to kick-off with India facing Nepal in the opening fixture on August 21, 2019.

Our goal is to increase the availability, affordability, and quality of the child care services in the 10 1/2 counties of the Choctaw Nation service area. We service Native American children under the age of 13.
Students, especially those who may become the first in their families to go into higher education, need to start planning early for college with the help of the Educational Talent Search program. Students as early as the 6th grade will be provided with educational information and encouragement as they begin to prepare for college.
On October l, l984, the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Muskogee Area Office, contracted the Johnson O'Malley Program.
Jones Academy is a Native American residential learning center for elementary and secondary school age children. The facility is located in southeast Oklahoma and houses 190 co-ed students grades 1 through 12.
Several years ago, the Choctaw Nation began the STAR Program with the goal of motivating our Choctaw Students to reach their educational goals. After just two years, it is evident that this program is having a positive impact.
The Student School & Activity Fund (SSAF) offers an annual $100 grant to purchase school supplies and clothing for Choctaw students possessing a tribal membership card.Students must be enrolled at an accredited school or daycare in order to receive funds. Home school students are eligible to receive the grant. Students must be at least 3 years old at the time an application is submitted. High school seniors cannot apply after their graduation date. If your high school student is over the age of 18 at the time of application submission, please mail a paper application and attach a document verifying that your student is still enrolled in high school.
Students qualifying for the grant will receive a $100 pre-paid Visa gift card within 2-3 weeks of application. If you need assistance or have questions in regards to your student's Visa gift card, please contact the SSAF program.
Our goal is to empower youth to find the leader within themselves and find their voice. Learning happens through action and reflection. YAB members become community leaders through service. They learn to solve problems, set and achieve goals and are encouraged to reflect. This gives them a deeper understanding of their community and the world around them.

History of the Disc Golf Course and Nature Trail
This 2018 Project of the Year was a joint effort of the Township and CTCC – the Cranberry Township Community Chest. Previous CTCC projects have included the CTCC SportsCourts in Graham Park, Out of the Park Playground in Graham Park, Kids Castle playground in Community Park, multiple park-based fitness stations, the Scout Centennial Plaza, and the electronic community sign at the corner of Rts. 19 and 228. Learn more about the project and how you can make a tax-deductible donation. Contact the Cranberry Township Community Chest
The project included two miles of nature trails, an 18-hole Championship disc golf course and a 6-hole Learn to Play recreational course, located on the 30-acre western portion of North Boundary Park.
According to its designer, Cranberry Champion Disc Golf Course will be the nation's best disc golf course - over 10,700 feet long and can be played as a full, par 72 course. Of the 7,400 disc golf courses that exist in the world, this will be one of the 10 longest courses and will be the longest course in the state. Its challenging terrain covers elevation changes, tight fairways and lots of trees to navigate around.
Each hole in the course has three different concrete tee pads, to allow play for those at every level of the game, including the long-throw championship level. Although the course will be nationally sanctioned for a rotation of tournaments, CTCC's ultimate goal was to make it a premier course hosting a yearly multi-day tournament that attracts the game's best players – the Cranberry Masters!

Q: Can Git track a file change and perform a three way merge? Not sure three way merge is the correct terminology, so I will describe the capability.
Assume you're working on an MCU board library repository Raspberry PI B containing a file RPIB.h containing its pinouts and other definitions. A year later, a new MCU board is released called Raspberry PI B+. It is identical except its pinout is slightly different. As a result, you clone RPIB.h, renumber a few pins and name the file as RPIB+.h.
Is it possible for Git to track RPIB+.h and RPIB.h and apply changes to both? For instance, a bugfix in either file is merged into the other? This would make it difficult to forget applying the bugfix to both.

A: The use case—to keep multiple versions of software for different platforms—is extremely common, but the method you describe is very out of date and not how it is handled in modern development.
You wouldn't store multiple versions of the file with different names, you would store them on separate branches.
The correct procedure would be:

*

*Create a new branch for the B+

Young singer triumphs in 2014's Maggie Teyte Prize
Every year, we're lucky enough to meet many talented young performers.
2014 is no exception. On 12 February, young singers were put to the test as they auditioned for the prestigious Maggie Teyte Prize. This prize recognises outstanding talent in the interpretation of French song. In these auditions, several promising singers also receive Licette Awards to help with the costs of further study.
We're delighted to announce that the winner of this year's Maggie Teyte prize is Soraya Mafi (pictured right). Soraya is from Lancashire, and studies at the Royal College of Music International Opera School with the support of a Help Musicians UK Sybil Tutton Award. She made her professional debut last summer in Poulenc's Dialogues des Carmélites at Grange Park Opera. She receives the main prize of £2,000 as well as a Licette award of £1,500, and a lunchtime recital at the Royal Opera House.
Three more talented singers received awards of £1,500: Kate Howden (Royal Academy of Music), Anna Rajah (Royal College of Music) and Alison Rose (Guildhall School of Music and Drama). The Help Musicians UK Accompanist's Award was offered to Paul McKenzie (Royal College of Music).
Training as a musician is expensive, and it can take years to make the transition from student to professional. These awards will provide a vital boost for these singers in developing their careers.
We're very grateful to Felicity Guinness, who generously sponsors the Maggie Teyte Prize and administered it from 1981 – 2007. We'd also like to thank the eminent panel on the day chaired by David Syrus, Head of Music at the Royal Opera House. He was joined by soprano Valerie Masterson CBE, mezzo soprano Jean Rigby and pianist Iain Burnside.
Soraya's recital is in the Crush Room at the Royal Opera House on Monday 2 June – save the date! Keep an eye on our events page for more soon.

"Without the help from Help Musicians, I would not have been able to afford to study as a member of the Royal College of Music International Opera School, preparing me for a career in opera."

Historic and Design Review Commission (HDRC) – August 7, 2019
517 E. Houston St. – Sol Frank Building
This Art Deco style store is one of the smaller and less ornate buildings that contributes to the Alamo Plaza Historic District. But its modest scale and simplicity does not make it less worthy of architecturally compatible renovation.
We opposed the applicant's current proposal to add a balcony and continuous glass panels across the storefront. These changes would have obscured and detracted from the vertical design elements that give the building its architectural character. Read our full statement.
The commission denied the proposed changes, in accordance with the recommendation from Office of Historic Preservation staff.
518 Nevada – Jacobs House
We supported landmark designation for Reverend John T. and Nellie Jacobs' home at 518 Nevada. The reverend and his wife served as early leaders of the East End Methodist Church. After Rev. Jacobs died in 1911, the church was renamed Jacobs Chapel in his honor.
The couple's c. 1905 Folk Victorian style home retains many character defining features of the style. It is located in the Historic Gardens neighborhood, which served as home to black working-class families through the early 1920s. If enough original housing stock remains intact, the area has the potential to become a historic district. Read our full statement.
HDRC approved the finding of significance for the Jacobs House, which the Office of Historic Preservation initiated. Unfortunately, the owner was not supportive of the designation.

Kilberry (Scottish Gaelic: Cill Bheiridh) is a village in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. It is close to the western coast of the district of Knapdale.
Kilberry Castle, just to the west of the village, was built in 1497 as a L-plan castle by a cadet branch of Clan Campbell. The castle was destroyed by an English pirate in 1513. The ruins were incorporated into the present mansion, built in 1844 by John Campbell and enlarged in 1871.
A group of sculptured stones, in the care of Historic Environment Scotland, are on display in a purpose-built shelter in the grounds of the castle. The stones, which include cross-slabs and medieval grave markers, originally came from the medieval parish church, which was destroyed in the 17th century.

Napier, Tuesday night<lb/>November 13<hi rend="sup ">th</hi>. 1894.

Dear Hans Mortensen,

I was very pleased to receive your kind and welcome letter last week, it had <hi rend="italic">no date </hi>
            <hi rend="underline italic">inside</hi> but the post-office mark was the 6<hi rend="sup ">th</hi>. I have been <hi rend="italic">very busy </hi>of <hi rend="italic">late</hi>, indeed I may truly say my being so busy has <hi rend="italic">only ended this day</hi>—this evening, the out-going mail to England closing. I was obliged to serve 2 Churches last Sunday; and I had been working hard in finishing my paper for our meeting held last night, and being also the <hi rend="italic">last </hi>meeting for this year I had mounted some of my new plants (from Dannevirke & Woodville), also some of Mr Hill's collecting from woods near East Cape, to show to the meeting.—

I have been keeping very well—only in my returning from Woodville a fortnight ago, I caught a <hi rend="italic">severe cold</hi> and sore throat at Dannevirke, that laid me aside for several days—but I am happy to say, I am once more "<hi rend="italic">all right</hi>"—<hi rend="italic">for </hi>
            <hi rend="underline italic">a little longer</hi>.—

I am glad, dear Hans, to find you and yours all well in health, and that you are a keeper at Home, looking after your land and garden, and enjoying the company of your own dear family growing up about you.—May our Heavenly Father ever keep, and bless you and yours; keep <hi rend="italic">fast hold</hi> of His gracious and loving promises to us, men, and be not drawn aside from the faith of your fathers, or any noisy and talkative party or people of the present time: every year seems to be bringing forth something new and strange in Religious matters, and <hi rend="italic">all under the appearance </hi>of the words and name of Jesus—but they are <hi rend="italic">not </hi>from Him:—but from "false prophets" or teachers "in sheep's clothing," as <hi rend="italic">He said </hi>(see Matthew, ch. VII. 13 to 23 verses.)

You mention your proposed trip to the tops of Ruahine range about Christmas. Well, if you go, I hope you may enjoy your visit,—may be it will make you think you are got back to the mountains and snows of your <hi rend="italic">Fatherland</hi>.

If I were young and active I should much like to go with you and Mr. Westall, but alas, that <hi rend="underline italic">cannot</hi> be, <hi rend="italic">I must be content</hi>. I thank you for your offer, to get me a few flowers or plants, but I cannot well direct you to any: you may meet with something <hi rend="italic">new</hi>, and if so, and you can <hi rend="italic">easily </hi>bring me a sprig, & flower, & fruit, anything to hand, do so—but <hi rend="italic">do not give yourself much trouble about it</hi>.

Our year of 1894 is fast running out, and I hope to see you and Norsewood in the summer.—

Remember me <hi rend="italic">most kindly </hi>to your dear Father-in-law, and to the Clemett family so <hi rend="italic">near you</hi>.

And with kind regards to your good wife & to yourself, Dear Hans, & love to your children, I am Yours sincerely,

W. Colenso

A Bench on the Road, Summerhall, Review
By Irene Brown - Posted on 22 February 2015
Summerhall
Charioteer Theatre in co -production with the Italian Cultural Institute of Edinburgh (ICIE)
Laura Pasetti (writer), (Andrzej and Teresa Welminski (co-director and developers) Natalie Toyne (vocal coach), Richard de Marco (supervisor)
Helen Cuinn, Vanda De Luca, Lorraine Hemmings, Sian Mannifield, Anna Panzone, Sita Pieraccini, Lizy Stirrat (accordionist)
A feminine view of Italian immigration.
'A story of Women's Courage, Sisterhood and Pride' is the strapline of the play's programme. Artistic director of the Scottish based international company Charioteer Theatre, Scots Italian Laura Pasetti, was given the remit by the University of Edinburgh as part of the Italian-Scottish Research Cluster project (ISRC) to produce a script based on interviews collected over years by academics about the experiences of Italian immigrants to Scotland between 1850 and 1950. The result is the work in progress, A Bench on the Road. Pasetti, a playwright, director and drama teacher who collaborates with the Accademia del Teatro alla Scala and the Piccolo Teatro di Milano, has elected to give voice to the women in these stories.
On stage in the grand upstairs room in Summerhall, the six black clad actors were already poised in what turned out to be a very long tableau as eager crowds packed in to the sadly limited space to see this embryonic premièred piece. The women held their poses admirably, and in some cases likely uncomfortably, as they stood gathered round the cardboard cases, bundles, bags and baskets that held their worldly goods. Whooping gull sounds accompanied them on their anxious journey across the sea to a new life in Scotland.
With only some simple props on the small stage including a very Scottish creepie stool, the women's stories of survival were told through a beautiful tapestry of language: a lyrical weaving of Italian, Scots and English. Told from the perspectives of mothers, wives, daughters and brides, the sense of separation and longing is clear throughout the plaintive performance from this mix of Italian and Scots actors.
The chorus of purse lipped porridge stirring white hatted Scots women dance the pas de basque (coloquially called the paddie bar!) and the Italians dance the Tarantella, though not in the same scene. Control versus passion; Catholic versus Presbyterian. While enjoying the pleasures of fish and chips and ice cream during the week, such indulgences on the Sabbath were an anathema to puritan Scots and a source of bewilderment to the Italians.
The slightly confusing funereal scene where the women are marching in defiance, are shot down yet rise again and again, has an air of Candide. This and other scenes were entwined with song that were well accompanied by accordionist Lizy Stirrat whose skills could be used more as that particular instrument with its universal roots always adds emotive notes.
The colour white is used as a symbol of hope and friendship and it is a white shoe that is offered as a gift of acceptance as former friends revert from enemies; when the shared bench, so symbolic of a place where strangers can meet and share, reverts from barricade to bench again.
A 3 star review seems appropriate for a work in progress but this admirable ensemble piece is laden with promise, its circular nature indicating the perpetuity of human movement in this troubled world. Its potent story holds a universal message at a time when Italy itself is facing immigration from troubled parts of the wider world and fully deserves to be taken to completion. Scots Italians represent a large ethnic group in Scotland and recently more young people are leaving Italy in search of a new life in other European countries. As one of the play's characters says, "Jesus was a foreigner."
There were short speeches at the end from Stefania del Bravo, Director of ICIE and Laura Pasetti that were followed by brief Q & A session.
The project has involved the collaboration and support of the Italian Universities of Milan and Rome, and the Scottish Universities of Edinburgh and St. Andrews. A Bench on the Road was presented as a work in progress with the support of Creative Scotland and the patronage of Piccolo Teatro di Milano on Friday 20th February 2015 at Summerhall, Edinburgh at 7.30 pm.

ANXIETY DISORDERS AND MEDITATION: WHY? | Health related information and news from around the world.
As I have been discussing throughout the book, our recovery depends upon learning to manage our anxiety and attacks ourselves. Understanding and accepting our disorder are the first two steps to taking the power back. Learning to manage the attacks and anxiety are the third and fourth step.
This chapter will look at meditation; what it is and why it works. In the next chapter two different meditation techniques will be described.
Managing them means we need to follow a disciplined approach to a formal relaxation program. At first glance some people hesitate. Although they want to recover they don't like the idea of having to become disciplined in their approach to relaxation.
Meditation can become a superior relaxation technique if it is practised daily. In one way, 'having to relax' is a contradiction to the practice itself, but many of us find we reach the stage where we do it because we want to, not because we have to.

Коридорас Юлії (Corydoras julii) — вид сомоподібних риб з роду Коридорас підродини Corydoradinae родини Панцирні соми. Названо на честь Юлії Корі. Інша назва «леопардовий коридорас». У природі поширений у річках Південної Америки; утримують також в акваріумах.

Опис
Завдовжки досягає 5—6 см. Спостерігається статевий диморфізм: самиця більша за самця, останні стрункіші. Голова помірно велика, морда округла. Очі середнього розміру. Є 3 пари маленьких вусиків. Тулуб стрункий. Спинний плавець високий, у самців перші промені більш розвинені, у самиць — округлі. Має 7 м'яких променів, кількість яких дорівнюється анальним променям. Хвостовий плавець з виїмкою, широкими лопатями.

Забарвлення жовтувато-сіре, ближче до кольору слонової кістки, зі сріблястими блиском. По всьому тілу розкидано дрібні чорні плямочки і чорні хвилясті лінії, окрім черево, утворюючи чудовий візерунок. Черево є світле, без малюнка. Від середині тіла (уздовж бокової лінії) до хвостового плавця тягнеться чорна нерівна смуга. У самця доходить майже до зябрової кришки. Зверху й донизу до цієї смуги долучаються тонкі лінії. Нижче цієї смуги кожна лусочка має облямівку чорного кольору. Верхня половина спинного плавця інтенсивно-чорного забарвлення, його основа — прозоре.

Parents of preschoolers and first graders who need to adjust to school this year will be allowed to enter their children's classrooms, according to a decision by the Health Ministry
"As a parent who used to accompany children as they entered kindergartens and first grade, I know how important this moment is for children and parents," Health Minister Yuli Edelstein said. "I'm glad we found a solution that will keep the children, parents and staff safe, but will not deprive parents of the right to know their children's learning environment and educational staff, and will not deprive children of parental presence, when they need it most."
Up to six parents will be able to enter a classroom at a time, following Health Ministry directives, such as wearing masks and social distancing. The parents will also be able to stay in the schoolyard and offer support as needed in the first days.
A formal declaration of the decision was sent by Health Ministry deputy director-general Itamar Grotto to the Education Ministry.
"In light of the need to balance the consideration of preventing infection from the coronavirus, and the need to allow appropriate adaptation to young children, we re-examined the issue," Grotto wrote. "Given the low risk of morbidity in these settings, according to data from the Health Ministry, data from around the world, and the fact that masks and distance and hygiene provide excellent protection against infection," parents will be allowed to enter.
