Samsung to bring Virtual Keyboard and Trackpad with its future folding laptop
November 28, 2022 by Galena dos Santos
Samsung is one of the most reliable manufacturers of the current time. When it comes to newer experiments with products, Samsung always welcomes them with outstretched hands. Recently, a patent has been filed which shows that Samsung is currently working on its future Laptop devices with a foldable display. The future laptop is also reported to bring a Virtual Keyboard and a Trackpad along with it. Now let's take a look at the additional information regarding it.
In today's generation, foldable laptops are no new and unknown products here. Leaving Samsung behind, Asus and Lenovo are some manufacturers who launched their foldable Laptop devices on the market earlier than the South Korean firm. But concerning Samsung, the firm already has a successful foldable series of Smartphones and Tablets available on the market. It is very obvious that the manufacturer will take this foldable far higher than that.
IMG – 91Mobiles
According to the patent, the folding laptop of Samsung will also be folded in half like other foldable laptops. The South Korean manufacturer will feature an OLED panel, which may bring a higher refresh rate with it. Additionally, the laptop will also get a Virtual Trackpad with a Keyboard, which means we can expect touch input support too. It is expected that the device will be ultrathin when unfolded and use the same hinge system that the Galaxy Z Fold 4 device has.
Besides all of these, the future foldable laptop of Samsung might get a regular selfie camera on top of the display, as the standard laptop devices, and will run on the Windows 11 OS. It will also get Type-C USB ports for charging and data transferring. Unfortunately, any additional information, such as its hardware feature and the launch date still needs to be discovered, we should wait for the official news and further reports on these.

GoViral Academy at CEEDS'15 by Webit shall present you successful tactics how to create viral content and make money from it. Highly sharable content can give your business a lift leading new people back to your site and increasing conversions. Creating a viral video, however, is far from easy. Having a piece of content go viral is like winning the Internet's version of the lottery. It's incredibly difficult to achieve and often hard to replicate.
Be short and sweet – According to a survey published in The New York Times found more than 19 percent of people had left a video after only 10 seconds. By a minute in, the video had lost 44 percent of viewers.
Be upbeat – In order to be sharable, content needs to strike an emotional chord in viewers. The same viewers are more likely to share upbeat content, so if you want your videos to go viral, it's important to strive for this.
Be involved – engaging with your audience builds loyalty and interest in your customers. Create qualitative content and such an approach will provide you with loyal customers.
Be informative – have in mind that your audience is always searching for new information so if your video content is interesting and informative, it is also highly sharable. We live in an era of information and everyone wants to learn something they didn't already know. Any new information is a great tool, use it.
Be inspiring – create stories that will inspire your readers/watchers. Audiences love good inspirational stories so the more inspirational your story is, the more your audience will want to share it with their friends.
Creating viral videos is anything but easy — if it was, every business would have a few viral hits. A recent example for a successful vloger (video blogger) that comes from Bulgaria and this is Emil Conrad. Once his videos become viral online hits, Emil published a book that is a blast at the moment. The same way viral video content can bring money to your company. Think in an innovative way and attend CEEDS'15 by Webit for more inspiration and ideas. Book your ticket now.

$768M Powerball winner bought ticket in Milwaukee suburb
A single ticket sold in Wisconsin matched all six numbers in the Wednesday night Powerball drawing to win the third-largest jackpot in U.S. lottery history.
Posted: Mar 28, 2019 6:27 AM
Updated: Mar 28, 2019 2:26 PM
Posted By: By The Associated Press
NEW BERLIN, Wis. (AP) — A single ticket that matched all six Powerball numbers to win the estimated $768.4 million jackpot — the third-largest jackpot in U.S. lottery history — was sold in a Milwaukee suburb, Wisconsin Lottery officials said Thursday.
The ticket, worth a cash option of $477 million, was sold at a Speedway gas station in New Berlin, a city of about 40,000 people roughly 14 miles (23 kilometers) southwest of Milwaukee, lottery officials told reporters at a news conference. The winner has not come forward yet, Wisconsin Lottery Director Cindy Polzin said.
The gas station will receive $100,000 for selling the winning ticket. That award will come out the state general fund, not from the winnings, Wisconsin Lottery spokesman David Brauer said.
New Berlin residents expressed excitement about the possibility the winner could be from their area.
"It is amazing. Amazing," said New Berlin resident Jacqueline Walderyera. "New Berlin, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Opening day for the Brewers. It's all falling into place just perfectly and it's my day off work."
Under Wisconsin law, the winner or winners can't remain anonymous and have 180 days to claim the prize. Otherwise the ticket is worthless.
The win comes almost exactly two years after Wisconsin hit its last Powerball jackpot, when a Milwaukee resident won $156.2 million on March 22, 2017.
Although the prize grew steadily since the previous jackpot winner on Dec. 26, the odds of matching the five white balls and single Powerball remained a dismal 1 in 292.2 million. The winning numbers were 16, 20, 37, 44 and 62. The Powerball number was 12.
The latest jackpot is the third-largest behind the world record $1.586 billion Powerball jackpot shared by winners in California, Florida and Tennessee in January 2016, and the $1.537 billion Mega Millions jackpot won in South Carolina last October.
"It's going to be a very green spring for our first Powerball jackpot winner of 2019," David Barden, Powerball Product Group chairman and New Mexico Lottery CEO, said in a statement. "A jackpot of this size can make many dreams come true - not just for the winner, but for all Lottery beneficiaries and the lucky state of Wisconsin."
The $768.4 million estimated figure refers to the annuity option, paid over 29 years. Nearly all grand prize winners opt for the cash prize. Both prize options are before taxes.
Wisconsin Department of Revenue Secretary Peter Barca said at the news conference that if the winner or winners take the cash prize, the state would claim $38 million of the winnings as tax revenue. He didn't know how much the state would receive in taxes each year if the winner or winners choose annuities.
Seven tickets matched all five white balls, but missed matching the red Powerball in Wednesday's drawing to win a $1 million prize. Those tickets were sold in Arizona, two in California, Indiana, Missouri, New Jersey and New York. Two other tickets, sold in Kansas and Minnesota, matched all five white balls and doubled the prize to $2 million, because the tickets included the Power Play option for an additional $1.
Powerball is played in 44 states, plus Washington, D.C., the U.S Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.

On the heels of today's surprise German Bundesbank announcement that Germany allegedly repatriated 120 tonnes of gold back from the U.S. and Paris, today a 50-year veteran spoke with King World News about the shocking reason why the Netherlands, Germany, and Belgium are bringing their gold back home. He also discussed the mini-crash in China and the extraordinary move by the Swiss central bank last week.
John Embry: "I would like to open by offering kudos to my friend Egon von Greyerz for his foresight on the fate of the Swiss franc/Euro peg. I thought that was incredible analysis in the face of constant propaganda emanating from the central banks. And I hope this disruptive development serves as a warning to investors that these central banks are not the seers they are cracked up to be….
"In my opinion their monetary policies have been disastrous and the volatility that is starting to erupt in various markets stands as testimony to that statement.
Just today the Chinese stock market had a mini-crash as regulators moved to counter the extreme speculation the market created by the loose money policy. This loose money policy was adopted by the Chinese central bank because they are scared to death about their weakening economy.
There is a global epidemic and as the economies sink everywhere, the central banks' only antidote appears to be greater money creation. This has had remarkably little positive impact on the global economy but it has created bubbles of varying magnitudes in all sorts of markets. The problems come when the bubbles burst as they always do. This will lead to market volatility that will make investors feel as if their hair is on fire.
Speaking of bubbles, I really think we are living in a dream world here in Canada because house and condo prices have risen constantly in major centers since the global financial crisis. Anybody suggesting that it is a bubble is simply dismissed because it hasn't burst yet, and this is in spite of the fact that the bubble has gotten even larger.
In the midst of this we are seeing the developments in the oil world that are negatively impacting Canada's most dynamic province, Alberta. They are also taking a severe toll on the Canadian dollar. This may lead to a bursting of the Canadian housing bubble. I've seen metrics which suggest that Canadian housing prices currently exceed those seen in the U.S. market at the peak, prior to the crash. The Canadian economy is very narrowly based and it will most certainly not fare well in a worldwide recession, which will only accelerate due to the excessive debt levels in all developed nations.
I would like to add that I remain very encouraged by the action in gold and silver, where both have broken through upside resistance. There will be corrections because the central banks are not going to give up easily on this subject. Having said that, people have to understand that the fundamental drivers are at their back and this will create a change in sentiment.
Embry: "Who knows whether this announcement is true or not? It's not a huge amount of gold — only 70 tonnes from the United States. But what is interesting to me is that the northern European countries — the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany — they are all expressing interest in getting their gold back.
I've seen it suggested that this may be preparatory to these nations starting a northern European currency bloc in case the euro fails. The euro has been imposed on these countries and it hasn't worked at all. It seems to me that if the northern countries, which are in much more solid shape than the peripherals, decided they were to go it alone, it may be a good idea to have their gold back. So this may very well be part of it. If this announcement is in fact true, from that perspective I guess it's a whole lot better than the Germans only getting 5 tonnes of gold back like they did the first year." ***ALSO JUST RELEASED: Serious Questions Surround Germany's Alleged Repatriation Of 120 Tonnes Of Gold From U.S. And Paris CLICK HERE.

There's going to be a raft of exchange-traded funds opening the rest of this year, but investors probably should ignore most of the new issues.
The expected creation of hundreds of funds is the logical outcome of two rules proposals, and one rule change, approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission last week. If passed, as expected, after a comment period, the rules will streamline the approval process for ETFs, turning something that was tedious, time consuming and difficult into a walk in the park. As such, fund firms will be taking that walk with abandon, leading to every kind of new issue that marketing minds think will sell.
The changing landscape will go a long way to increase the market share that exchange-traded funds have already captured, but it won't necessarily lead to a lot of satisfied customers.
"The SEC in some ways is giving up its role as a gatekeeper here, which means that individual investors will have to step up their due diligence and think about the best long-term solution for their portfolios," says Sonya Morris, editor of the Morningstar ETF Investor newsletter. "Those solutions probably won't come from the new funds. ... With those, I think investors have to remember that it's 'Buyer beware.' "
Exchange-traded funds are an increasingly popular alternative to traditional mutual funds. Functionally, they are index funds that trade like stocks, so they can be bought or sold by a broker on a moment's notice rather than having all transactions held up until they can be made at the day's closing price. Typically, ETFs have an edge over traditional mutual funds in costs and tax efficiency, although some of the new flavors being created operate in a fashion that negates the natural edge of the ETF structure.
With more than 600 ETFs on the market already, the field is crowded; yet most observers expect the new rule to result in doubling the number of ETFs within a year. While there are plenty of ordinary index ETFs, there are also a lot of power tools, funds that use leverage or other strategies to try to return double the market's gains, or that go opposite to the market so that they make money when the index is in the tank.
Up to now, fund managers trying to create ETFs needed to go through a prickly approval process, one that had kept funds in the registration process for years. Every new twist on any existing strategy basically needed approval.
The new rules basically codify the past approvals, meaning that anything similar to what has already gone forward will pass muster, and only something that puts a completely different spin on investing will need a regulatory look-see. The rule also gives the green light to "fully transparent actively managed ETFs," a big change because fund firms have heretofore been unable to register issues that are actively managed.
Another feature of the proposed rules allows investment companies - most notably mutual funds - to make larger investments in ETFs than was previously permitted, a move that will lead to some funds that invest entirely in other ETFs.
The SEC "looked out the window and saw the line of new ideas for ETFs snaking around their building, to the tune of a five-year waiting list, and decided that's not acceptable for products in an industry going through hyperbolic growth," says Jim Lowell, editor of the Forbes ETF Advisor newsletter. "So they opened the floodgates."
But just because it is easier to bring products to the market doesn't mean they will be good, Lowell adds.
Dave Fry, editor of ETF Digest, says that there are a few areas of the market where new ETFs can fill voids but that most new issues will be repetitive, or worse.
"There is no reason for an individual investor to be a pioneer in a new ETF," Fry says. "They should look at where the liquidity is and at how much money the ETF has under management as part of their decision."
That's because some recent ETFs failed to draw significant in-flows and wound up closing, giving investors their money back. At the end of last month, the Claymore funds closed 11 young issues, ranging from the Index IQ Small Cap Value fund to the Clear Global Vaccine Index to the Zacks Growth & Income fund.
Funds that fail to draw a following and that can't grow assets will dry up quickly and close, which is why individuals should be patient and wait to see if a strategy attracts interest and assets. Funds that come to market with a theory will have to prove that they are more than just a clever marketing ploy.
Says Lowell: "Kick the tires hard. There will be shelves lined with investment products that sound good but are untested in the real world. If you think those new funds will be the cure for your portfolio, good luck."

Framingham group that fights human trafficking banks on homemade deodorant
By Henry Schwan, Wicked Local
Daily News, Art Illman
Heather Wightman makes RIA Deodorant Salve.
SOURCE: Daily News, Art Illman
Heather Wightman's life changed dramatically 15 years ago when she read an article about women who are victims of human trafficking."It changed my life," Wightman said. "I told my family, 'How can I be helpful? This is terrible.'"Wightman, 50, recalled that moment on Monday while working in the kitchen of her Hopkinton home, making the latest batch of her homemade deodorant, called "RIA Deodorant Salve."There is a connection between the article that transformed Whitman's life and the deodorant, Wicked Local reported.Wightman could relate to a life of struggle, growing up in a "working class" home in Haverhill."My family had challenges and struggles," Wightman said. She was the first in her family to go to college.Wightman spent years in volunteer jobs acquiring the skills to help women break free of the commercial sex trade.There was a stint with the Trafficking Victims Outreach Services Network, followed by jobs in the areas of suicide prevention and fighting poverty and homelessness. In another assignment, she help resettle refugees, then managed a shelter for victims of domestic violence.Wightman saved enough money to start the non-profit RIA House in May 2014. The acronym stands for Ready. Inspire. Act.With offices in Framingham and Worcester, the organization provides help to women victimized in the commercial sex trade, including trafficking and prostitution.Wightman knew she needed various sources of income to keep RIA House running, and that is where the deodorant comes in.She looked to Thistle Farms in Nashville, Tennessee for inspiration.The farm provides housing, work and lifelong support to women survivors of prostitution, trafficking and addiction. It also sells its own natural body and bath products that are hand poured by women survivors. Sales support the farm's operations, and provide the women with job skills and increased self-esteem.Wightman didn't think anyone was making a "mission-driven" deodorant, so she made up a batch in her home. She perfected it, and came up with a recipe that works - Shea butter and coconut oil are heated slightly, and mixed in a blender with baking soda and arrowroot.The concoction is a milky, creamy liquid – "like cake batter," Beth Waterman, RIA House program director, said of the consistency as she helped Wightman spoon the liquid into jars with labels that read "Ready. Inspire. Act."A few drips of either tea tree or lavender oil are added before capping. A third version, which is unscented, is also sold. The salve hardens into a soft paste while in the jar. The product is applied with the fingers.All scents comes in 2-ounce jars for $10 apiece, and approximately 150 have been sold since the deodorant was launched in May on the RIA House website - riahouse.org."I think it works great," Wightman said. "It also doesn't stain clothes."Production is slow, because Wightman makes a batch when she has the time, and roughly half the sale price covers the cost of ingredients. Profits are invested back into RIA House."That would be a good problem to have," Wightman said when asked what would happen if the product took off, and she had to hire staff to increase production.Today, RIA House has four full-time employees. Wightman is the executive director, and up until a year ago, she didn't earn a salary.Like the products from Thistle Farms, RIA House deodorant is not just about making money. It's about building the organization, so Wightman can give her clients the resources, support and self-esteem to break the cycle of the commercial sex trade.Wightman has her sights on possibly expanding her product line to include an all-natural sunscreen."We should make an all-natural bug spray," Waterman chimed in while spooning the latest batch of deodorant into jars.

Wightman spent years in volunteer jobs acquiring the skills to help women break free of the commercial sex trade.
There was a stint with the Trafficking Victims Outreach Services Network, followed by jobs in the areas of suicide prevention and fighting poverty and homelessness. In another assignment, she help resettle refugees, then managed a shelter for victims of domestic violence.
Wightman saved enough money to start the non-profit RIA House in May 2014. The acronym stands for Ready. Inspire. Act.
With offices in Framingham and Worcester, the organization provides help to women victimized in the commercial sex trade, including trafficking and prostitution.
Wightman knew she needed various sources of income to keep RIA House running, and that is where the deodorant comes in.
She looked to Thistle Farms in Nashville, Tennessee for inspiration.
The farm provides housing, work and lifelong support to women survivors of prostitution, trafficking and addiction. It also sells its own natural body and bath products that are hand poured by women survivors. Sales support the farm's operations, and provide the women with job skills and increased self-esteem.
Wightman didn't think anyone was making a "mission-driven" deodorant, so she made up a batch in her home. She perfected it, and came up with a recipe that works - Shea butter and coconut oil are heated slightly, and mixed in a blender with baking soda and arrowroot.
The concoction is a milky, creamy liquid – "like cake batter," Beth Waterman, RIA House program director, said of the consistency as she helped Wightman spoon the liquid into jars with labels that read "Ready. Inspire. Act."
A few drips of either tea tree or lavender oil are added before capping. A third version, which is unscented, is also sold. The salve hardens into a soft paste while in the jar. The product is applied with the fingers.
All scents comes in 2-ounce jars for $10 apiece, and approximately 150 have been sold since the deodorant was launched in May on the RIA House website - riahouse.org.
"I think it works great," Wightman said. "It also doesn't stain clothes."
Production is slow, because Wightman makes a batch when she has the time, and roughly half the sale price covers the cost of ingredients. Profits are invested back into RIA House.
"That would be a good problem to have," Wightman said when asked what would happen if the product took off, and she had to hire staff to increase production.
Today, RIA House has four full-time employees. Wightman is the executive director, and up until a year ago, she didn't earn a salary.
Like the products from Thistle Farms, RIA House deodorant is not just about making money. It's about building the organization, so Wightman can give her clients the resources, support and self-esteem to break the cycle of the commercial sex trade.
Wightman has her sights on possibly expanding her product line to include an all-natural sunscreen.
"We should make an all-natural bug spray," Waterman chimed in while spooning the latest batch of deodorant into jars.

Podolnica je naselje v Občini Horjul. Nahaja se vzhodno od Horjula, na prisojni strani horjulske doline, pod obronkom gozdnatega Kladnika.
Zaščitni znak Podolnice je ščurek.

Cerkev sv. Urha
Na 426m visoki vzpetini med vasema Zaklanec in Podolnica, ki jo domačini imenujejo Grič, stoji podružna cerkev sv. Urha, ki spada pod horjulsko župnijo.
Domnevajo, da je bilo na Griču prazgodovinsko naselje.
Cerkev je bila prvič omenjena leta 1526 in je bila prvotno lesena, obdajalo jo je obzidje zgrajeno v obrambi proti Turkom. Štirje stolpi v obzidju so vaščanom služili za shrambo hrane.
V začetku 18. stoletja je lesena cerkev zgorela, sedanja pa je bila najverjetneje zgrajena leta 1751 in posvečena 1772.
Ko je minila nevarnost pred Turki, so podrli zahodni in severni stolp obzidja in okoli cerkve uredili pokopališče.
Leta 1991 so domačini ob pod nadzorom spomeniškega varstva obnovili del obzidja s stolpoma in ob notranjem vzhodnem delu obzidja postavili lesen hodnik. Tako je tabor pri sv. Urhu postal zaščiten kulturen spomenik.
Iz Podolnice in Zaklanca do cerkve vodita dobro vzdrževani asfaltni cesti. Cerkev z obzidjem in dvema stolpoma je zelo dobro ohranjena in vsekakor vredna ogleda, od tu pa se lahko odpravite na manj zahteven izlet do Korene (730m, 1h 15 min), do sosednjega Ključa (623m, 1h) ali drugih hribov.
Cerkev sv. Urha z obzidjem je tudi simbol na grbu horjulske občine.

PGD Podolnica
V Podolnici zelo aktivno deluje prostovoljno gasilsko društvo Podolnica, ki ima tudi svoj gasilski dom.
Podolnico je v zgodovini požar prizadel kar dvakrat -- prvič leta 1862 in drugič leta 1882.

Robin Richards talks Dutch Uncles and being Lonesome
Andy Murray June 22, 2015 Arts, Bands & Gigs, Blogs, Cinema, Music, Northern Electric Comments Off on Robin Richards talks Dutch Uncles and being Lonesome
At the very end of December 1910, a new cinema opened in Manchester city centre at the junction of Oxford Street and Whitworth Street West. The Kinemacolor Place was a plush joint showing all the latest silent movies. It changed hands, and indeed names, many times over the decades but, apart from a brief interlude as a furniture showroom, it remained as a working cinema right up until earlier this year when its latest incarnation – Cornerhouse's Cinema 1 – closed its doors for the last time.
So it's a neat bit of synchronicity that a silent film screening helped to mark Cornerhouse's regeneration into HOME last month, with the première of a brand new soundtrack to Pál Fejös 1928 feature Lonesome, written specially for the occasion by Robin Richards, best known as composer and bassist for North West band Dutch Uncles.
The band first came together more than ten years ago when Richards and a few of his school mates started playing music together. By the time Richards started a degree in music at the University of Salford, Dutch Uncles had already released their first album. In 2013, Richards performed his first solo neo-classical composition, Washington Trapeze, at Festival No.6, which brought him to the attention of the folks at HOME for their new 'Music and Film' strand. Speaking exclusively to Northern Soul, he explains: "Off the back of that, they thought that I would be good for this project and then we worked on it for several months in advance."
So it was almost a year ago that the approach was made and Richards started on the road to Lonesome. In fact, the first task was to choose the film: it was always intended to be part of HOME's grand opening weekend, with some thematic link to the weekend's umbrella theme of 'the funfair'. But at that stage Lonesome was only one of several silent films on the subject under consideration. Early contenders struck Richards as overly melodramatic, though. "Then when we watched Lonesome, I really liked the characters and the camera work," he says.
It's not a widely-seen film, but even after nearly 90 years, Lonesome is hugely charming. It concerns Jim and Mary, two lonely workers going about their lives in isolation. On a hot Summer day, they both head to the beach, which is where their paths cross. As the day goes on, romance starts to blossom between them, but it starts to seem as though circumstances are conspiring to keep them apart. Then again, they have more in common than they might imagine. Made on the cusp of the talkie age, the film features some very short scenes with recorded dialogue – but they're relatively clunky moments compared to the sweet lyricism of the rest.
So early this year, with the film selected, and with Dutch Uncles' fourth album O Shudder about to be released, Richards began work on his score, with the involvement of the Royal Northern College of Music. "I always said that I wanted to work with typical classical instruments, so a string quartet and piano and vibraphone. And I think HOME suggested student players from the RNCM. If we were working with professional players, they wouldn't have been as much time for rehearsals, so we got students who were really keen to impress. They were great."
There was a collaborative element to the project, too, involving four students from the RNCM composition department. "I designated them a scene each to score, with the brief of working with most themes that I'd already written. And I didn't want to give them the most boring scenes. I wanted to give them quite interesting scenes to work with."
For instance, having met with the students, Richards selected one who enjoyed working with atonal music to score one of the film's most dramatic scenes, involving – yes – a malfunctioning rollercoaster. "Putting it all together was the tricky bit. But I think if people didn't know my work before then they probably didn't tell the difference."
As the screenings approached, though, there were still things to iron out.
"The section in the middle that's got all five composers' sections one after each other did feel a bit disjointed" admits Richards. "I tweaked it, and also worked on segways between the scenes to make it as cohesive as possible. Then during the rehearsals, just actually hearing it come to life after hearing it as [composition software] Sibelius MIDI sounds for the past six months…it was great. And yeah, it did work. We did a full run-through before the first performance on Sunday, and after that it was kind of like – ah, I can do this. It's all going to be fine."
While studying at Salford, Richards developed a love of neo-classical music and composers like Igor Stravinsky and Michael Tippett. It's not too hard to detect those influences on the striking arrangements and bold time signatures in Dutch Uncles' music. Film soundtrack music itself, though, has never particularly fed into their work.
"I think there have been certain tracks that people have described as filmic in some way," Richards suggests. "But it's not like there's any film composers in particular that have been been an influence when I've written music for the band. Even when I wrote music for this film, it wasn't like John Barry or anyone was a huge influence. So much film music is predictable and formulaic at the moment that it's when you get film scores written by composers who aren't usually writing film music that it sticks out as something slightly more vibrant and exciting. I mean, Jonny Greenwood's score for There Will Be Blood always sticks out for me as one that's like, 'Wow, that is different'."
Richards' score for Lonesome is a treat, full of promise, and the two HOME performances, with Richards himself providing live bass guitar, were much acclaimed. It's refreshing to see a composer hit the ground running like this, and demonstrate an understanding of the principle that a soundtrack should serve and heighten the effects of a film, rather than distract from it.
And yet Richards has a highly distinctive style, very much recognisable from his work with Dutch Uncles. The rest of 2015 will see the band on tour, not least as support for the forthcoming Garbage reunion shows. They're in the very early stages of writing their next album, too. On top of all that, Richards has a few other small solo endeavours in the pipeline.
"It's great to know that in the next few months I've got the fifth album to write for the band, but also two or three other projects to be working on at the same time, because I've realised that I definitely prefer to be busy than not."
For one thing, it's very likely that further live performances of the Lonesome score will take place, though nothing official has been announced just yet. "HOME have even talked about touring it, taking to London or something, which would be amazing. But we'll just have to wait and see. it would be a shame if it was only performed twice." And in the long run, is this the sort of composing work he'd like to explore further? "Oh yeah, definitely. For sure. Doing this project has made me keen to do more."

Q: Can I get a list of field names of an interface whose types are of a given type? For example, if I have this interface
interface Measurement {
  date: Date
  width: number
  height: number
  depth: number
  comment: string
}

Is there a way for me to get the following?
const numericFields = ['width', 'height', 'depth']
const dateFields = ['date']
const stringFields = ['comment']

Alternatively, is there a way I can create a function like the following?
// not sure about the signature, but hopefully you get the idea
function getInterfaceFieldsWithType<I, T>: keyof I[]

const numericFields = getInterfaceFieldsWithType<Measurement, number>()

A: First very naive approach:
interface Measurement {
  date: Date
  width: number
  height: number
  depth: number
  comment: string
}

type GetByType<T, V> = {
  [P in keyof T]: T[P] extends V ? P : never
}[keyof T]

/**
 * Just an alias to reduce repetitive code
 */
type Get<T> = Array<GetByType<Measurement, T>>

const numericFields: Get<number> = ['width', 'height', 'depth']
const dateFields: Get<Date> = ['date']
const stringFields: Get<string> = ['comment']

Drawbacks:
const numericFields: Get<number> = ['width', 'height', 'depth', 'depth', 'width'] // valid from TS perpective

If you want to forbid dublications by TS, you can try this answer
If you want to be 100% sure that there are no dublications in runtime, the best way is to use Set's:
const array = [...new Set([1, 2, 3, 4, 4])] // [1, 2, 3, 4]

Second approach
interface Measurement {
  date: Date
  width: number
  height: number
  depth: number
  comment: string
}

// filter all properies
type GetByType<T, V> = {
  [P in keyof T]: T[P] extends V ? P : never
}[keyof T]

/**
 * Just an alias to reduce repetitive code
 */
type Result = GetByType<Measurement, string>
type Values<T> = T[keyof T]

/**
 * because our second argument is stringified type name,
 * we need some sort of vice-versa mapping
 */
type LiteralToType<T> = T extends 'string' ? string : T extends 'number' ? number : T extends 'Date' ? Date : never;
type TypeToLiteral<T> = T extends string ? 'string' : T extends number ? 'number' : T extends Date ? 'Date' : never;

const getInterfaceFieldsWithType = <
  Obj extends Record<string, unknown>,
  Type extends TypeToLiteral<Values<Obj>> // I need a guarantee that we have at least one property with expected type
>(obj: Obj, expectedType: Type): GetByType<Obj, LiteralToType<Type>>[] => {
  const keys = (Object.keys(obj) as Array<keyof Obj>)
  /**
   * Here, filter is a typescript guard
   * It says: if I return true, then you can sleep well, this key is what you need
   */
  return keys.filter((elem): elem is GetByType<Obj, LiteralToType<Type>> => typeof obj[elem] === expectedType)
}

/**
 * Tests
 */

const result = getInterfaceFieldsWithType({ date: '01-01-2021', width: 24, height: 42, numberdepth: 2, comment: 'hello' }, 'number') // ok ("width" | "height" | "numberdepth")[]
const result2 = getInterfaceFieldsWithType({ date: new Date(), width: 24, height: 42, numberdepth: 2, comment: 'hello' }, 'Date') // ok "date"[]
const result3 = getInterfaceFieldsWithType({ date: new Date(), width: 24, height: 42, numberdepth: 2, comment: 'hello' }, 'string') // ok "comment"[]
const result4 = getInterfaceFieldsWithType({ date: new Date(), width: 24, height: 42, numberdepth: 2, comment: 'hello' }, 'Promise') // error

If you still want to allow non existence property types, like Promise, you can add next Overloading to your function
type EmptyArray = readonly string[];

interface Overloading {
  <
    Obj extends Record<string, unknown>,
    Type extends TypeToLiteral<Values<Obj>> //I need a guarantee that we have at least one property with expected type
    >(obj: Obj, expectedType: Type): ReadonlyArray<GetByType<Obj, LiteralToType<Type>>>
  <
    Obj extends Record<string, unknown>,
    Type extends string // I need a guarantee that we have at least one property with expected type
    >(obj: Obj, expectedType: Type): EmptyArray
}

IndyCar: Will Power's second straight championship hope takes big hit after wreck at Fontana (VIDEO)
By Jerry BonkowskiJun 27, 2015, 7:49 PM EDT
Will Power's hopes for a second consecutive Verizon IndyCar Series championship took a big hit after being involved in a late-race wreck in Saturday's MAV TV 500 at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, Calif.
With 10 laps to go in the 250-lap event, Power was running in fourth place and on the outside of a three-car pack when Takuma Sato – in the middle and running sixth – made contact with the inside car and fifth-place ride of Scott Dixon.
Sato bounced off Dixon's car and into Power's, sending the two cars into the outside retaining wall. Dixon, meanwhile, was able to motor on.
The wreck was on the frontstretch, at a speed well over 200 mph.
Neither driver was injured and both climbed from their cars without incident.
Team Penske strategist Tim Cindric told NBCSN that this was not the style of racing that he expected.
"I don't think you can say that was anybody's fault there," Cindric said. "It's really disappointing because we all sat down with IndyCar after Las Vegas and discussed the fact we could never have another race like we had there, in terms of the pack racing that goes on or used to go on in IndyCar. Why we're here doing that today, I have no idea. Fortunately, these guys are okay.
"It was very obvious to us from the first practice that this was the way it was going to be. We voiced our concerns, the drivers voiced our concerns. … I'm sure it's fun to watch, but running open-wheel cars like this is very difficult."
Team owner A.J. Foyt, who owns Sato's car, had a different perspective.
"We had a great car today, (Sato) did a great job of driving it, but it just wasn't our day," Foyt said. "I enjoyed this type of racing when I was doing it.
"It's not that much fun watching, but I think it's great racing. At least you can race. When you can race, you can race. … That's just racing. It just wasn't our day."
Power sounded off to NBCSN's Jon Beekhuis.
"I'm just glad Ryan looks like he's OK," he said. "What are we doing? That was a Vegas situation. I'm so happy no one is hurt. It's crazy. We don't need another situation like Vegas."

Africa, Global Poverty, Refugees, Swaziland
10 Important Facts to Know About Refugees in Swaziland
As attention turns to the world's refugee population, it becomes evident that this is a problem area that needs help. Africa alone holds more than 15 million refugees and accounts for a fourth of the world's displaced population. Swaziland is no different, as the country has seen its fair share of refugees over the past decade. Listed below are 10 facts about refugees in Swaziland:
The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) established itself in Swaziland in 1978 to help with an influx of refugees who were fleeing apartheid in South Africa.
In the 1980s, there were as many as 20,000 refugees in Swaziland. As many as 8,000 of these refugees were Mozambicans fleeing from their civil war.
In 2005, the UNHCR handed over all of its refugee services to the Swaziland government, as the number of refugees had drastically decreased following the abolishment of apartheid. Refugees in Swaziland at the Malindza and Ndzevane refugee camps began to rely on the government for key services.
The number of refugees in Swaziland decreased from 759 refugees in 2011 to 505 in 2012. This change was perhaps due to a massive drought and food concerns in the region that began at that time.
In 2015, a sample of data was collected by the UNHCR concerning refugees in Swaziland. The data found that the number of refugees still had not reached pre-drought levels and was currently at 696 refugees.
Refugees in Swaziland today come from surrounding countries which include Burundi, Angola, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and Somalia.
New arrivals are held in the Malindza reception center and refugee camp that the UNHCR established. They are supplied with household items and blankets.
Swaziland refugee children are enrolled in schools in order to integrate, and the Swaziland government applies to the UNHCR for funding in order for the children to attend for free.
Malindza has health services for the refugees, including a primary care clinic that services the local community as well. The government understands that refugees come from difficult circumstances, so they also provide counseling services.
In addition to providing household items, the opportunity to have gainful employment and medical assistance, Malindza and the Swaziland government have set up a food assistance program. This program was created to help new arrivals and the vulnerable which includes disabled persons and children. This program allows these people to receive food prepared in the communal kitchen.
Despite numerous hardships of their own, the people who call this small monarchy in Southern Africa home continue to provide their fellow people of Africa a safe place to escape from difficult circumstances. Although they no longer host thousands of refugees, the country still continues to treat those they do house with respect.

I've been really busy ever since my kids started school just over two weeks ago!
Heather from the Sewing Loft blog asked if I would join her National Sewing Month Series early on in the month... she fell in love with some vintage felt stitching kits that I had made a few years ago. I've always wanted to make my own, so I took this as an opportunity to do just that! Sometimes all I need is a little focus and I can make some of these dreams I have a reality.
So today, I'm over at the Sewing Loft sharing a tutorial on how to make a Flower Power Pincushion!
These will be so much fun to stitch up and work on your embroidery skills. I've taken care to choose pretty color combinations, high quality supplies and detailed instructions with each kit.
I hope you like them because I'm excited to design some more felt embroidery kits!
So fun! Those are adorable!
Just lovely, going straight over to see the tutorial.
Hello. I purchased your quilt top and backing a month ago, finished it, and just barely blogged about it. Thought you might like to see it. AND I love your trip around the world quilts! both of them!

Q: Startup applications 14.04 I'm trying to mount 3 partitions by default when I log in.
I used to do that with the start up applications in 12.04
However there seems to be a nasty bug in 14.04 where false command duplicates are removed (apparently, only the command is taken into account, even if the arguments differ).
I tried using one single command instead of 3, putting all the devices in one line (something like /usr/bin/udisks --mount /dev/sdb1; /usr/bin/udisks --mount /dev/sdb2; /usr/bin/udisks --mount /dev/sdb3; )
However it does not seem to work either.
What can I do to have 3 partitions mounted by default (with their label) ?!

A: You can have it done by editing your fstab file
sudo nano /etc/fstab

and adding in the related information about your partition (you can always visit the fstab man page)
#example entry for a ntfs-3g partition
UUID=BA2CB4532CB40C7F   /media/mount ntfs-3g defaults,noatime,users 0 0

you can get the UUID for your partition using fdisk -l to list all the partitions and blkid /dev/sda* (replace sda* with the actual name of the partition) to get the UUID
Sorry my answer is not extremely complete, but I'm quite in a hurry. Please feel free to edit it later and add some more details

A: You could consider writing a small bash script that mounts the partitions, and place it in /etc/init.d as described in this answer. You may need to create a symlink to /etc/rc.d as he points out too.
Also, if you can find a stable method to reproduce the bug, you could report it to launchpad.
I hope you find this method acceptable

A: add this to your .bashrc.
It will run every time you log in
mount /folder/mountpoint /dev/sd??


Last weekend we joined up with one of our favorite dog hiking Meetup groups for a hike at Red Top Mountain State Park in Cartersville, Ga. One of the fun things about Meetup groups is discovering places we haven't been before. And while I've been to Red Top Mountain, I didn't know about the Iron Hill Bike/Hike trail, the 3.9 mile trail we tackled with our Meetup group last weekend.
Red Top Mountain was once an important mining area for iron, and this trail is named for the soil's rich red color caused by high iron-ore content.
One of the nice things about this trail it winds along the banks of Lake Allatoona, and there's a nice spot where dogs can swim. However the park rules say that pets should be kept on a leash at all times with a maximum leash length of six feet. So the dogs in our group waded in, but there wasn't a whole lot of swimming.
We decided to explore these first since they seemed most scenic.
First we explored the paved Lakeside trail, above, which included the 1869 homestead, benches along the banks and a dock with a lovely view of the lake.
Then, we headed to the White Tail trail -- named after Rocco's white tail... or maybe not! This is the trail that winds up at a scenic point overlooking the 12,000 acre Lake Allatoona. Rocco and I enjoyed the view from the rocks.
We'll have to go back another day to check out the three other trails that range from .75 miles to 5.5 miles in length.
This week we will be randomly selecting one of the commenters from the FitDog Friday blog hosts: SlimDoggy, Peggy's Pet Place and To Dog With Love. The selected commenter will receive a sample pack of dog treats courtesy of Cloud Star, makers of Dynamo Dog Functional Treats. Make sure to share your FitDog Friday thoughts in the comments below and on our co-hosts blogs and you may win a great prize for your fit dog!
Wow! 12k acre. Sounds like you had a super fun time!
It's a great park! I hadn't been there in a while and forgot how nice it is!
I can't believe that Rocco has a trail named after him! How cool. Looks like great trails - and some great exercise.
I know! We had to do the White Tail Trail! I had never walked that one before either. I've only walked some of the main trails -- the other one's not mentioned in this post.
Cool park. Did it tire Rocco out?
Ha! Rocco does NOT tire out! At least I haven't seen it yet!
Looks like a nice wooded area to hike. I like that there was a swimming spot, but you did not mention if there were lots of squirrels and wabbits to watch and chase. I bet there were with all the woods. Hiking/walking somewhere new is always so much fun.
oh yeah! There were lot's of critters to chase! Rocco and I did a lot of sprinting since I did want to keep him leashed, and it's required!
Ha! That's funny! It is hard to tell which end is which... especially when he's sleeping!
That looks like such a wonderful park, with so many different trails and bodies of water, and scenery to enjoy. With varied terrain and distances it seems like there's something for everyone.
How nice that you have dog meetup groups too, that's something we should do around here.

High Quality Auto Repair for Your Buick in Cliffside Park, NJ
Buick is one of America's oldest car brands, with a rich tradition of style and innovation that dates back more than a century. Though recognized for catering to retirement-age car buyers with its full-size sedans, Buick's lineup now includes SUVs and sport sedans designed to attract younger buyers to the Buick brand. At Bovan's Auto Services, we work on all Buick models, including Regal, LaCrosse, Enclave, Encore, Verano, and Cascada.
At Bovan's Auto Services, we know Buick vehicles just as well as the Buick dealerships. Our technicians stay up-to-date on the latest Buick technology and features to ensure we can take care of your vehicle whether you need an oil change or engine replacement. If you live in the Cliffside Park area, we hope you'll count on us to keep your Buick performing at its best.
If any warning lights display on your Buick vehicle, you should head to an auto repair shop as soon as possible (at a minimum within the next 600 miles). Generally, your motor oil and filter must be changed at least once a year, and this may be the culprit. However, if you're driving in optimal conditions, your vehicle might not indicate the need for vehicle service for more than a year. At Bovan's Auto Services, our trained technicians can accurately determine when your Buick needs maintenance, exactly when and not before or after it's necessary.
The brake pads on your Buick vehicle are equipped with wear indicators that will produce a squealing noise when the brakes are almost worn out. The noise will start when there is about 2 mm of brake pad friction remaining, which is when brake pads need to be replaced. If you are hearing this noise, your brake pads should be replaced as soon as possible. (The noise may be present even when you're not applying the brake pedal.) At Bovan's Auto Services, we can help with all your Buick service needs.
Bring Your Buick to Bovan's Auto Services in Cliffside Park, NJ!
Let's face it, nobody is ever happy to spend money on auto repairs, but if getting your Buick serviced is a pleasant experience then it tends not to be such a big deal. For high quality, value-minded repairs delivered in a timely manner, bring your vehicle to Bovan's Auto Services!

Q: Broadcast Audio to web site I am looking for learning materials , examples ,
learning what I need to broadcast from a pub Audio Broadcast directly to Web site.

A: I would rather split the problem in three parts:

*

*Get an audio stream

*Broadcast the stream

*Integrate the stream in your web site

A typical scenario would be 1. you record a show at home, and 2. send the stream to your hosted server from where it is broadcasted. 3- Your users can listen to the show directly from your website.
Of course, for a limited audience, steps 1 and 2 can be merged.
For all these steps, there are several technologies, not all of them restricted to MP3.
Their choice depends on several parameters like the OS your server is running on, the price, the security of the flow etc.
A common practice for radio websites has been to offer several different technologies, depending on the client ability to play them.
Another option now is to use a very widely installed add-on, like flash, which will be in most cases the easiest option and my recommended choice.
Regarding the stream by itself, the main technologies I see are:

*

*MP3 (shoutcast/icecast)

*Real Audio

*Windows Media Server technologies (usually WMA)

MP3
The easiest to set up, a lot of free tools available on all platforms.

*

*Generate the stream
You can use VLC or IceCast and lots of other tools to generate an mp3 stream from your audio source.

*Broadcast the stream
You can broadcast it directly from your system using IceCast or forward it to your ISP to get a larger bandwidth. Your ISP needs to offer a compatible server application.

Real Audio
Not free. Can be streamed either from http or real protocol (then needs a dedicated server app on the server).
The whole chain is then more or less proprietary to Real tools.
Some info here.
Windows Media Server
Windows only, not free if needs to be broadcasted via a server.
You can get a valid stream using Windows Media Encoder, that you can either directly stream on the Internet or set as a source of a Windows Media Server.
Some docs here.
My personal advice would be to start with a VLC stream directly pushed to the Internet and use a flash player to consume it on your web page.
Then, you can gradually set up an icecast server and move it to a dedicated server if needed.
You will find plenty of documentation on all these subjects on Google.

A: There are two separate questions in one here:
1) How to convert the sound from the pub broadcast into a streaming MP3?
2) How to integrate a streaming MP3 into a website?
For part 1 I don't have much experience and it is not really a programming issue - I suggest browsing radio forums like this one until you find some useful advice on what gear you need.

For part 2, Icecast (www.icecast.org) is an example of a streaming media service that can be used to integrate streaming MP3 into your website. IC Radio (www.icradio.com), the Imperial College London internet radio station uses it (as a student I had a show on this station).


The most important gift you can EVER give another is the gift of listening.
It seems simple enough, but if you really pay attention to your attention, you would notice how little attention you actually pay to what another is saying. The longer the story, the less attention you pay. The duller and the more monotonous the voice, the less attention you pay. There are so many excuses you can give as to why you don't listen, but the thing you need to know is that as common as it may be, it is rude and ego driven.
When you lose interest in someone's story, you allow your mind to wander, or worse, you start thinking about what you are going to say next. When you do that, you are NOT giving the gift of listening. You are not living in the moment. You are not being present.
The biggest present you can give another is to be present with her (or him)… her words, her emotions. You show that you are not only listening, but that you hear her. Eckhart Tolle, author of "A New Earth," tells us (and I paraphrase) that when you are present with another, you are helping that person awaken to her spirit. How does that work? You are honoring the essence of who she is. You learn to be present by being aware of the person right in front of you; the person who is talking.
The Native Americans have a tradition called the Talking Stick. No one can talk or contribute vocally to the circle unless they have the stick. Those in the circle are asked to stay present, be quiet, and hold space for the one who is talking. It is also a judgment-free zone. How do you listen without judgment? You set your ego aside and listen.
Our culture loves to talk over, around, through, and on top of anyone who is talking. Our ego wants the limelight, wants the stage, wants to talk. You assume that what you have to say is entertaining, educational, and all-inspiring. Sometimes it is; sometimes it isn't, but if no one is listening, who really knows for sure?
We have a horrible habit of filling a void of silence with our chatter. The rarest gift you can give another is the gift of silence. Silence is one of the most sacred of all moments in communication. When you allow a space for silence, you offer a space for communion of your spirits.
There are people that still test my patience. They may be older, or lonelier, or perhaps much younger than where I am in my life. But through the years, I have learned that beneath their stories is a need… a need to be heard, a need to be valued, a need to be needed. When I have a conversation with them, the gift of listening becomes even more important. It is a HUGE and precious gift you can offer them. The gift of listening is a validation of who they are and of how much they matter.
I have learned a valuable practice to listening when it is most difficult. There are the obvious good manners my parents taught me, of looking her (or him) in the eyes, nodding my head to show I understand what she is saying, and repeating back what I have heard to ensure I have heard it correctly.
Those moments, though, when I do find my mind wandering, or when my ego wants to interrupt, or when I just lose track of the conversation, I found a way to bring myself back. I have mastered a way to bring myself back to the focal point of the other person's voice. I am immediately re-centered and in the present moment. I am listening.
It may seem that I am not listening when I think this mantra, but that isn't the case. The mantra is repeated in an upper part of my mind, not consuming my thoughts. It acts almost like a feeling, with a memory of listening. It works! It reminds me to be present, and it allows me to respect the person talking.
Try it, you'll see what I mean. It is a true gift, one of the most priceless gifts that you can give another. When you listen, you are showing the other person that she (he) matters to you. If she feels she matters, then she will walk a little taller, and feel a bit more important. When you give the gift of listening, you give the gift of self esteem, the gift of self worth, and the gift of self confidence.
Being present and in the moment with every person you talk and listen to allows the space for two people to connect at a deeper level. When you listen, truly hear the voice of another, you give the gift of your Self, of your spirit, to the other. You hold sacred space for the one talking; even without a Talking Stick you honor the one in front of you.
My gift to you is that I am listening, so let's talk.
