Home » Blog » Making a Difference While Making New Friends Through Smith Center Networking Group
David Grayson estimates that at any given time, he has tickets for at least 10 upcoming Smith Center shows.
"Ever since I found The Smith Center, I have been frequenting Reynolds Hall and Myron's Cabaret Jazz," says Grayson, a 32-year-old software developer and Las Vegas resident.
With this fierce love for the performing arts, "I'm interested in meeting people like me and getting more involved with The Smith Center," he adds.
That's why Grayson joined Fanfare!, The Smith Center's networking and engagement group for young philanthropists with a passion for the arts.
Targeted toward arts enthusiasts 21 to 39 years old, Fanfare! offers special opportunities to experience The Smith Center and Southern Nevada's arts-and-culture scene.
"I expect it will be a great resource to me," Grayson says. "Any friendships I form through Fanfare! will be extra fun, because we'll always have things to talk about and do."
As a new member, Grayson recently participated in his first Fanfare! event: volunteering at The Smith Center's sensory-friendly performance of "Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical."
He hadn't previously been aware of sensory-friendly shows, specially adapted for audiences with disabilities.
"I anticipated it being a unique and eye-opening experience," Grayson says.
Making a Difference While Making Friends
He got that, and more.
Grayson helped at the event by answering questions and distributing squeeze toys to attendees. He learned how people with disabilities might face challenges in attending live shows, especially those with sensitivities to jarring lights and sounds.
"I am so happy that The Smith Center goes out of the way to provide sensory-friendly shows," Grayson says. "I am glad we live in a world where people are not competing 100 percent of the time, but also have time to do kind things for those who were born differently."
He also appreciates that Fanfare! gave him the opportunity to help provide a joyful theater experience for community members.
"A little girl saw from a distance that I was handing out toys, and she got so excited that her jaw hit the floor," he says.
Grayson even bonded with other Fanfare! members, and enjoyed watching the show with them.
"Because of Fanfare, I met some good people who are also members, put smiles on people's faces and was able to see a great musical," he says. "I am looking forward to future Fanfare events."

Bella Updates
Local businesses donate home addition

LONDONDERRY — What began as a ramp addition to Bella Tucker's Lantern Lane home has now turned into a 2,200-square foot addition, complete with separate garage and indoor elevator.
Nicholas Middleton, owner of CUBE 3 Design Studio in Lawrence, and project coordinator Keith Boyle gave a presentation of the project to the Town Council Monday evening.
Bella, 8, is a South Londonderry School student who has been hospitalized since Easter Sunday after a life-threatening infection resulted in quadruple limb amputations. She is still at Boston Children's Hospital and faces a long road ahead of being fitted for prostheses and rehabilitation at Shriner's Hospital for Children in Philadelphia before returning home.
"This is a heartbreaking project," Middleton said. "We were approached by Bella's family to look at putting an elevator into the house."
Boyle said initially Jen Hamwey, a civil engineer from Windham, read about Bella in local newspapers and looked into building a ramp at her home. Because of the way the house is graded, a ramp wasn't possible.
"Jen contacted Allen and Major Associates in Manchester to ask for help," Boyle said. "They, in turn, contacted us."
Middleton quickly assembled a team that includes Anthony Nigro of Suffolk Construction Company in Boston and Derek Felix of Blackdog Builders in Salem. Many other local companies donated materials.
The design team approached Londonderry community development director Andre Garron about permits and septic system approvals about six weeks ago.
"What would normally take weeks, took days," Boyle said. "Andre and Richard Canuel, the building inspector, jumped through hoops for us."
A handicapped-accessible van has been donated to the family and the new addition will include a garage for the van. The team worked with Otis Elevator Company and got the price of the elevator considerably reduced from the initial $30,000 cost.
The elevator will go from inside the garage to two living spaces. On the first level will be a bathroom and room that can be used for physical therapy. The upper floor will have a bedroom that Bella can share with her younger sister Lola. A second bathroom will be connected to the parents' suite.
"We are letting Bella pick colors and materials for her space so that it won't have a hospital feel," Boyle said.
Other modifications to the home will include a farmer's porch for Bella to sit outside and hardwood floors to make it easier to get around. Because Bella likes to spend time in the kitchen with her mother, a portion of the center island will be lowered for her.
"We're making it so that the family will have nothing else but to look forward to when Bella comes home," Boyle said. "This is a project from the heart."
The entire project is being done at no cost to the family and is expected to be done by Nov. 1. Bella is expected to return home by the end of the year. Boyle said he did not have an estimate yet for the cost of the project.
Progress on the construction, a list of donors and building materials still needed can be found at bellatucker.org
Donations can be made to THE BELLA TUCKER FUND via the Paypal link or by mail to: The Bella Tucker Fund 26 Lantern Lane Londonderry, NH 03053

Documents illuminate U.S. Yiddish-speaking life until the Cold War
By Melanie Lefkowitz
Credit: Cornell University Library
An anti-Nazi cartoon from the collection.
Newly digitized documents from the archives of the International Workers' Order (IWO) and the Jewish People's Fraternal Order – including three letters from artist Marc Chagall – cast light on the lives of Yiddish-speaking Jewish immigrants in the United States during World War II and the Cold War.
The documents, which also include anti-Nazi posters and leaflets and a rare 1941 poetry anthology published in Moscow by the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee, are part of the Cornell Library's Kheel Center for Labor-Management Documentation & Archives in the ILR School.
They were digitized through a 2016 award from the Grants Program for Digital Collections in Arts and Sciences to Jonathan Boyarin, the Mann Professor of Jewish Studies, and Elissa Sampson, visiting scholar and lecturer in the Jewish Studies Program in the College of Arts and Sciences, in collaboration with the Kheel Center and the library's Digital Consulting and Production Services.
"These archives offer a window into Jewish life at a time when Jews had very narrow choices given the constraints of dealing with Nazism, fascism, World War II and Stalinism," Sampson said. "The documents contain the seeds of a fascinating and detailed history of competing and complementary loyalties during World War II: to the Soviet Union and a progressive international left-wing movement; to the United States; and to the Jewish people and the propagation of a secular Yiddish culture."
The IWO was founded in 1930 as a fraternal organization providing benefits such as health insurance to its members. Its Jewish division, the Jewish People's Fraternal Order (JPFO), was the second-largest Jewish fraternal organization in the United States. More than 1,700 digitized documents, in English and Yiddish, are organized online into categories including education, black-Jewish relations, Albert Einstein, women's work and "World War II Jewish tanks and poems."
Striking images document Jewish support for the World War II effort. In one 1942 Walter Gropper cartoon, Hitler cringes before a row of tanks labeled, in Yiddish, "American Jews," "Soviet Jews," "Canada Jews," "English Jews," "Palestinian Jews." These tanks are given famous Jewish names such as Bar Kokhba, Maccabees, Spinoza and Heine. The Chagall documents include a letter, in French, in which he asks the French consul to support a Jewish orphanage and a note to the JPFO's general secretary, written in Yiddish.
The IWO was shut down by the New York State Department of Insurance in 1953 because of its political affiliations in a case decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. Its archives were then confiscated by the state, which later donated them to Cornell. Additional papers and books were donated to Cornell University Library by the Saltzman Schwartz family.
"The International Workers' Order collection offers a rich basis for understanding the organization's work with, and impact on, organized labor," said Barb Morley, digital archivist at the Kheel Center. "These materials document vital social and economic efforts."
The collection supports a wide range of scholarship, including American history, legal history, labor history, international and Jewish studies, gender studies, literature and music and immigrant culture, and fraternal societies. They complement the Kheel Center's International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union and Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America collections, which also include information about IWO branches formed by union locals, as well as the collection on the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire.

Q: Passing Parameters In SSRS I have 5 reports, which I need to render on seperate pages of an Excel Workbook, so I have created a Master report and intend to call them as subreports. This works perfectly, but the problem is that I need to control the name of each worksheet, and I believe that the trick here is to use a rectangle, and set the PageName property to the desired name of the worksheet.
The issue is, that as soon as I place the subreports inside a rectangle and add a Page Break or a PageName, when I run the master report, I get an error saying One or more parameters were not specified for subreport _____
The same thing happens if I put the sub report inside a list.
How do I either pass the parameters in via a rectangle, or name the worksheets without the use of a rectangle?
I am using SSRS 2008R2

A: I have got to the bottom of this, and it appears to be the most bizarre SSRS bug. Once you move the subreport inside a list or rectangle and add a Page Break, SSRS flips the date format of the date parameters, and hence you end up passing in values that SSRS does not recognise as dates.
Even more obscure, If you pass flip the date values so that the report succeeds, the next time you run it, SSRS flips them back the other way, and then then they stay flipped that way until you exit the report.
Go back into the report and repeat the steps above once more. I will raise this on Microsoft Connect.

Q: How to make clang build (like msvc and gcc) with double declared extern "C" functions in different namespaces I have this project, where two other projects get included, that provide headers for the same DLL. In one header the declarations are put into a namespace, in the other one not.
That works well for GCC and MSVC, but I can't convince clang to compile it..
So a minimal example would be:
x.h:
#include <string>
#if defined __GNUC__
# pragma GCC system_header
#endif // __GNUC__

namespace XX {
  struct Type {
    std::string name;
  };

  extern "C" int Func(Type);
}

incl.h:
#include <string>
#if defined __GNUC__
# pragma GCC system_header
#endif // __GNUC__

struct Type {
  std::string name;
};

extern "C" int Func(Type);

main.cpp
#include "incl.h"
#include "x.h"

int main()
{
  return 0;
}

G++ complains with a warning, but that is turned off with # pragma GCC system_header.
So, how can I get clang to build in an environment like this?

A:
[dcl.link] At most one function with a particular name can have C language linkage. Two declarations for a function
  with C language linkage with the same function name (ignoring the namespace names that qualify it) that
  appear in different namespace scopes refer to the same function. ...

As such, ::Func and XX::Func must refer to the same function. But your two declarations have different parameter lists - one takes a parameter of ::Type while the other takes a parameter of XX::Type. As such, they cannot be the same function, and thus the quoted rule is violated, and the program is ill-formed.ever
A few ways to fix the program:

*

*Rename either XX::Func or ::Func so that they are separate functions. Make sure that there is a definition for each.

*In incl.h, include x.h and replace the definition of ::Type with using XX::Type. So that each Type refers to the same type, and consequently both function names refer to the same function. Make sure that there is only one definition.

*In x.h, include incl.h and replace the definition of XX::Type with using ::Type. To achieve the same as above.

The latter is by the way how some standard library implementations implement <cstdlib> and its friends. They include  the corresponding C standard library header (<stdlib.h> in the case of <cstdlib>) which declares everything in global namespace (the only "namespace" in C), and then they pick all of the standard functions and types into std namespace with using ::whatever.

P.S. Don't use #pragma GCC system_header (unless you're writing a system header). It will suppress all warnings (except those produced by #warning directive).

DASH bus could be completely free starting this fall
Vernon Miles April 6, 2021 at 2:30pm
Alexandria's DASH bus network could soon be completely free for all passengers.
In a recent newsletter, Mayor Justin Wilson said he is proposing to make DASH free for all riders to go along with a planned overhaul of the bus network going into effect in September.
"To coincide with the implementation of this new route structure, I will be proposing that we use this opportunity to make DASH free for all riders," said Wilson. "Free transit will expand ridership by an estimated 23%, bring riders back to transit following the pandemic, help achieve the City's environmental goals and disproportionately benefit our lower-income residents. With ridership depressed due to the pandemic, the initial cost to implement this change is dramatically reduced."
The move comes after a brief window when DASH stopped collecting fares during the pandemic, a practice it resumed last month.
In answer to a budget question from Mayor Justin Wilson, staff included full fare elimination as one of four possible scenarios, which also included off-peak fare elimination and free or reduced fare for low-income residents.
While Wilson said in the newsletter that the initial amount of revenue lost in the change would be relatively low at first, staff noted in the response that over the next few years the amount of money not-collected in fares would go up as ridership returns.
According to staff, the levels of funding left off-the-table by eliminating fare collection is project to look something like this:
FY23 Full DASH Fare Elimination: $3,912,107
Staff said the change would require the city to increase it's funding to DASH over time.
"It should be noted that due to one time use of $2.9 million in one time federal relief funding in FY 2022, the City support of the DASH budget will need to increase by approximately $0.9 million in FY 2023, assuming the projected return of passenger revenue," staff said. "This increase does not include current services adjustments or any supplementals that may be approved. Therefore, any fare reduction initiative will add to that subsidy increase."
The change would come in the middle of DASH shifting from a coverage-based system, that prioritizes bus access geographically, to a service-based system, which would realign bus routes to prioritize areas of greater density to increase service quality for more Alexandrians while leaving some in less-dense parts of the city with limited or no access to the bus.
There has been some haggling over how much service would be cut to less dense areas, with DASH agreeing to restore some bus lines through the Seminary Hill area. But staff has noted that the level of coverage could depend on the upcoming budget with City Manager Mark Jinks saying fully funding both a geographic coverage and greater service in areas of higher density are incompatible with his suggestion to decrease the real estate tax rate.
While the City Council has ruled out increasing the tax rate, it's not clear yet whether the Council will go along with the proposed tax rate reduction.
"The City Council will ultimately determine the future of this proposal as we work to finalize our budget this month," Wilson said.

Q: gu No such file or directory I'm building a docker image out of a micronaut application.
But whenever I run the docker build command
docker build -f Dockerfile -t micronaut .

I get this error
/bin/sh: /bin/gu: No such file or directory

Here's the content of my docker file anyway:
FROM oracle/graalvm-ce:20.0.0-java11 as graalvm
RUN $GRAALVM_HOME/bin/gu install native-image

COPY . /home/app/micronautguide
WORKDIR /home/app/micronautguide

RUN $GRAALVM_HOME/bin/native-image --no-server -cp build/libs/complete-*-all.jar

FROM frolvlad/alpine-glibc
RUN apk update && apk add libstdc++
EXPOSE 8080
COPY --from=graalvm /home/app/micronautguide/micronautguide /micronautguide/micronautguide
ENTRYPOINT ["/micronautguide/micronautguide", "-Xmx68m"]

Though by running gu command from the terminal works.

A: Your context does not contain RUN $GRAALVM_HOME/bin/gu . What is $GRAAL_VM_HOME? Whatever this variable is, it is set as null. Also, $GRAALVM_HOME/bin/gu needs to be part of docker image.

A: $GRAALVM_HOME does not exists in the oracle/graalvm-ce:20.0.0-java11 container. Thus, make suer to specify the right path. In this case it is /bin/gu
I think $GRAALVM_HOME is a variable you use in the local machine and gu tool is already installed and available at /bin in the docker image. So I have kept the $GRAALVM_HOME unchanged in the second build stage.
So, the Dockerfile should be like below,
FROM oracle/graalvm-ce:20.0.0-java11 as graalvm
RUN /bin/gu install native-image

COPY . /home/app/micronautguide
WORKDIR /home/app/micronautguide

RUN /bin/native-image --no-server -cp build/libs/complete-*-all.jar

FROM frolvlad/alpine-glibc
RUN apk update && apk add libstdc++
EXPOSE 8080
COPY --from=graalvm /home/app/micronautguide/micronautguide /micronautguide/micronautguide
ENTRYPOINT ["/micronautguide/micronautguide", "-Xmx68m"]

Q: Controlling Class Visibility in Java My project has currently following package structure.

Here I have added a package name utils and defined all utility classes related to this module inside it. Those have been used by other packages (i.e. impl, internal), and because of that I have made classes and methods in util package public.
Because, it is public, not only classes in this module, classes in other modules can also access this and when I am coding using my IDE they are shown as coding suggestions.
I went through few research papers which describe how this can reduce the usability of the API and give a bad experience to developers who involve in the development [ref1, ref2].
I understand that java does not allow me to make classes inside util accessible to impl and internal packages and not to others.
Is it correct to put my utility classes to a package 'util'? Or should I put all classes that communicate with each other to the same package?

A: Util classes are fine. Util classes are functionality that is used multiple places in a project but doesn't really belong to a specific class.
In a perfect world of OOP there wouldn't be any util classes, but it is however considered a good practice to create util classes if they do not belong to a specific class.
Your options for access modifiers are listed here:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/javaOO/accesscontrol.html
There is one way to achieve what you you want, it is however concidered a very bad practice. You can change your access modifiers of  util classes to protected. This will make your util classes accessible from subclasses and packages. So if a class needs access to one of the util classes, then it has to extend this util class and thereby become a subclass. I cannot stress it enought, this is a very bad practice.

A: You are correct, something marked public becomes usable in any other package. In contrast to other languages, Java doesn't provide any control beyond that.
A simple workaround: it might be helpful to have one special package containing those public things that should be available to your external users.
Meaning: create something like com.whatever.product.api - and instruct your users that they are fine to use everything from there - but nothing else.
In other words: you make all those things public that you need to public; but you collect those things in a special place that you allow to be used by others.
It is worth mentioning though that Java9 will introduce the concept of modules, those allow you to define which of your packages should be public to users of your module. In that sense, java 9 modules allow you to distinguish between "internal" and "external" public.


Case Description Cause of Action submitted a FOIA request to the Clinton Presidential Library for records of communications between the library director and Hillary Clinton or any of her representatives pertaining to her records when she was Secretary of State. Cause of Action requested expedited processing and a fee waiver. The agency granted Cause of Action expedited processing, but when Cause of Action realized its request had not been expedited, it appealed. The Clinton Library told Cause of Action that there were two older expedited requests still being processed. Cause of Action submitted another FOIA request to the National Archives and Records Administration for records concerning communications between NARA and the Department of State pertaining to recovery of federal records improperly taken by Hillary Clinton. Cause of Action requested expedited processing and inclusion in the media fee category. The agency granted expedited processing. NARA told Cause of Action it was still processing the request. After hearing further concerning either request, Cause of Action filed suit.


Innovation is driven by connective intelligence.
To begin with the end in mind, life is essentially connective, it reaches out. Innovation is (or ought to be) a connective process in that it requires organizations and innovators within organizations to reach out to others within and beyond their organization to continuously make new connections pertaining to ideas, knowledge or information. So what is the difference between connected and connective? To be connected feels more static and defined, whereas to be connective speaks to an ongoing activity and intent to reach out and realize new connections. The process is open and never entirely complete.

The innovative filmmaker documenting Life in Sourdough
New York-based filmmaker and photographer Marie C has a lofty resume to her name. She creates award-winning short films for countless inspiring businesses and personalities, and is the creative force behind her own alternative cooking web series My Life in Sourdough – now in its third series, with a fourth in the pipeline. Modelled loosely on Marie's own passionate life lived through the most humble of foods, My Life in Sourdough is a romcom-come-cooking show chronicling the culinary adventures of a French girl looking for a love "as orgasmic as bread making". We spoke to Marie C, long-time friend and collaborator of Rachel Khoo's, about her first love, her upcoming episodes, and her idyllic life lived between New York City and Paris.
Where do you call home and what inspires you most about your city?
Home is where my sourdough starter is and he travels with me everywhere, whether I'm going to New York or flying to Paris. My friends are always making fun of this special relationship I have with my starter, so eventually I decided to make him into my love interest in season 2 of My Life in Sourdough.
I love the energy and pace of New York. Some say it's an illusion, but even if it is, I think it's a pretty inspiring one. If you have an idea here, people encourage you; 'go for it!' could be New York's motto. Nothing is impossible. That said, New York is very intense and there are days where you feel like the city is going to eat you alive, which is why I love spending time in France (in Paris or the Alsatian countryside) to balance out the intensity of living in New York.
What was your inspiration behind your film series My Life in Sourdough?
This project was inspired both by a desire to incorporate food into my films and by the thought of challenging the standard style of cooking shows to do something more alternative. Season 1 was also inspired by my experiences of dating in New York (picking the right apples, choosing the wrong men), season 2 by my relationship with my sourdough starter (which gave the series an absurd tone), and season 3 by my frequent travels to Paris (it's a more intimate, family driven season. See the teaser video below). I also drew inspiration from my directors of photography – Chananun Chotrungroj, Anna Stypko, Colleen Kwok, Leonardo d'Antoni – who really helped me set the visual style of the series.
Tell us about a day in the life of Marie C?
Every day starts with feeding my sourdough starter, 'Fluffy', a little bit of white and a little bit of rye flour. Then everything changes depending on whether I'm at the writing stages of a series, in production or in post-production. Right now, I'm in the later so I spend my time between finishing the last videos for season 3 (a fun series of life-changing tips with chefs from Paris), adding the last touches to the design of a new website, and writing the next season: a crazy road trip looking for my missing lover Fluffy across America (think Thelma and Louise, but with a sourdough starter).
Tips for caring for sourdough culture at home?
Experiment with a stiff starter (feed your starter more flour than usual).
Try adding a touch of rye flour to your starter, especially if it's a bit deflated.
Above all, be patient. The more you feed your starter on a daily basis, the more you'll get to know him or her.
Still photography vs film – what's your favourite medium to work with?
Tough question for me. One inspires the other and vice versa. On a daily basis, I shoot stills because I can do it without a big crew. Directing a film always requires more man – and girl – power!
Is collaboration important to you?
Absolutely. Making films is all about collaboration. Working with talented people can only make your work better and inspire you. My life in Sourdough was definitely a collective enterprise – if you look at our crew page, you'll see that there are a lot of people behind this project.
Are rituals an important part of creativity?
Yes. But like all rules, rituals are also meant to be broken. My strongest ritual is cooking at home. I do that every day – and feel very off-balance when I can't cook for a week. It's both a moment of relaxation and inspiration. I really fuels my creativity. I also aim to write every day, even if it's just to make lists of things I want to do – and not just the boring paperwork tasks, but the things that excite me.
I khoollect a few …
As a bread baker, I have a bit of a flour collection. Buckwheat, durum, spelt, high-extraction flour, chickpea flour…I always love discovering new flours and new mills. Next step – milling my own flour one day.
What's your favourite item in your khoollection?
Probably my blue Le Creuset cast iron pot, which makes for great bread and a very heavy suitcase!
Favourite corner of the Internet?
I love Soundcloud. The alternative French bands who composed the soundtrack of Season 3 of My Life in Sourdough have their latest songs and remixes on there: Mozambo, Jacoby and Octave Lissner. They all sing in English and I listen to them on repeat, turning my cooking sessions into a dance party.

Description: This article goes through the history of Dungeons and Dragons. It explains the creative background of the video game and Bob Kruger's opinion on the development of the game.
Summary: Dungeons & Dragons turned forty in 2014. A thorough discussion of D&D involves just about every issue that crops up in game design, so it's great for a broad overview of the field. But D&D itself is less a game than a set of traditions, an evolving hobby rather than a finished consumer product. At its best, D&D facilitates the creation of a meaningful story that is a surprise to everyone, including the Dungeon Master, and its group dynamics, its mythic subject matter, the element of luck, and even the players' naïve faith in the rules are instrumental to this effect.
Excerpt: On the other hand, he said in the original Dungeon Master's Guide that "hit points," the measure of damage a character could sustain, represented a mix of skill, luck, and divine favor more than physical toughness. Whereas wounds like broken bones weren't, as he put it, "the stuff of high fantasy," both trichinosis and trichophobia apparently were.

Bristol City draw Premier League side Crystal Palace at Ashton Gate in the Carabao Cup
The Robins have beaten Plymouth Argyle, Watford and Stoke City so far
Bristol City have been drawn against Premier League side Crystal Palace in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.
The draw was made live on Sky Sports News tonight and City were out the bag early, being drawn at home at Ashton Gate against the struggling Premier League side, who sit bottom of the table without a goal.
Palace sacked their manager Frank de Boer after just five games and 77 days in charge this season. They replaced him with former England manager Roy Hodgson who managed the Robins back in 1982. Hodgson picked up his first win at Palace with a 1-0 win over Huddersfield yesterday.
Bristol City secured their place in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup after seeing off Stoke City 2-0 last night at Ashton Gate.
Head coach Lee Johnson made nine changes to his side and reaped the benefits of his choices.
Goals from man-of-the-match Matty Taylor and strike partner Famara Diedhiou saw the Robins safely into round four of the EFL Cup.
City manager Lee Johnson said: "We're delighted to have another home tie and we'll look forward to it when it comes around and give it nothing but our best."
The Carabao Cup Round Four will be in the week commencing October 23. It means the match will most likely be on October 24 or could be October 25.

"Blogging has changed the way we communicate."
With the rise of interactive social media, especially blogging, our way of communication has changed to an interactive communication process.
Ten years ago there was no Facebook,WordPress, Twitter, Foursquare, Linkedin, Wikipedia, Instagram, Pinterest, or any other social media platform. Initially, communication and interaction with websites were predominantly one-sided. Web sites would offer information but no interaction. Web surfers would skim across multiple websites without the ability to interact, comment or communicate in real-time. Information would be scanned often without focus or intellectual investment. Passive website viewing rarely allowed two-way interactions.
With the rise of interactive social media, especially blogging, our way of communication has changed to an interactive communication process. Blogging sites such as WordPress offer preset, easily adjustable, free templates for beginner bloggers who can communicate via text, images and video messages to an international audience. Collaboration on a global scale with robust feedback, comment features and instant translation services capture the rapidly evolving nature of online communication. Gordon Brown, former British Prime Minister said: "Take, therefore, what modern technology is capable of: the power of our moral sense allied to the power of communications and our ability to organize internationally. That, in my view, gives us the first opportunity as a community to fundamentally change the world. "
However, blogging also poses challenges. Inadvertent self-disclosure in blogging is akin to "peeling back the layers of an onion. The outer layers of the onion represent superficial information about a person, such as physical appearance and speech. The deeper layers represent more intimate information, such as the person's thoughts, feelings and relationships with others. "Social Penetration Theory
Entering the blogging and social media galaxy is a multi-dimensional journey which starts with listening and learning, self-disclosure, engaging across all channels, joining and creating communities, and connecting to collaborative partners across the globe. This networking and collaboration leads to collective intelligence, transparency and collaborative solutions.

"She [Desdemona] saw, as the truly valuable Part of the Sex do, Othello's Visage in his Mind; she was too innocent and resigned to be guarded against the Wiles of envious and designing Men; and thus, while basking in the Sunshine of Love, and sporting in the Splendor of its divine Emanations, she was blind to and unguarded against, that dark Side which clouds and balances all human Lustre; and when acting superior, like a rude Storm, bears down all before it, renders the Soul black as Erebus, and works the Passions into a kind of Chaos; yet, is there nothing out of Nature, Truth, and common Experience, in all this; and is a Point so well understood, nay, and encouraged too among the Spanish Ladies, that, however it may appear to affect the Moral of this fine Play, they insist that this Jealousy, this Jaundice of the Mind, this Hurricane of the Spirits, is one of the richest Joys they taste in the Society of Men; and would rather die by the Poniard, than not have their Husbands jealous of them."

(Reuters) - Oil output from seven major shale formations in the United States is expected to rise by 79,000 barrels per day to 7.6 million bpd in October, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said Monday.
Surging oil output from shale formations boosted total U.S. crude production to a record high of nearly 10.7 million barrels a day in June, the latest month for which data is available.
Production is expected to rise 31,000 bpd in the Permian formation of Texas and New Mexico, the agency said in a monthly report.
Output from five other major shale formations is expected to rise in the month. Output in the Haynesville shale, the smallest of the seven formations that the EIA tracks, was expected to be unchanged at 43,000 bpd in the month.
Production per rig from new wells was expected to rise in all formations except for the Permian Basin, where it was expected to decline by nine barrels a day.
Meanwhile, U.S. natural gas production was projected to increase to a record 73.1 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) in October. That would be up almost 1 bcfd over the September forecast and would be the ninth monthly increase in a row.
In October 2017 output was just 60.3 bcfd.
The EIA projected gas output would increase in all the big shale basins in October.
Output in the Appalachia region, the biggest shale gas play, was set to rise almost 0.3 bcfd to a record high of 29.4 bcfd in October. Production in Appalachia was 24.2 bcfd in the same month a year ago.
EIA said producers drilled 1,520 wells and completed 1,282 in the biggest shale basins in August, leaving total drilled but uncompleted wells up 238 at a record high 8,269, according to data going back to December 2013.
That was the most wells drilled and completed in a month since early 2015, according to EIA data.

We tweeted (see pic below) and I won a Simon bracelet. I got a chair massage, made my own perfume, met with tons of brands, and made funny photo booth pics. I was soooo tired after this, I don't even remember going to sleep! Look at the Swag bags on my shoulder!
8 am breakfast with De Wafelbakkers watching the Pancake Hoarders Premier. I was video taping it?
10 am Mom Select Swag Suite – Need I say more? I mean holy canoli!! SWAG GALORE and awesome brands!
2:25 met with Mega Brands for a one on one. I learned a lot of cool things about how they have stepped up their product and still keep it cheap to buy. Look for reviews!
4:30 Help Screener. OMG! I cried! Good thing I am not a heavy make-up wearing gal.
We left straight from the Premiere to meet Gazalle and Laura for one last time at the Latina Party. I was tired at the end of every day, but it was so much fun. I cannot wait until next year!

Alabama woman charged in death of man carjacked, run over
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — An Alabama woman has been arrested in the death of a man who was assaulted during a carjacking and run over by an off-duty officer.
News outlets report 32-year-old Keyton Nicole Sparks was charged Thursday with the murder of Jerand Deon Jackson.
Birmingham Police spokesman Sgt. Johnny Williams says Jackson crashed into a motorcyclist June 19. Two suspects in a second vehicle carjacked and then beat Jackson, leaving him on the roadway. An unwitting off-duty officer ran him over.
Williams says Sparks is one of the suspects who fled driving Jackson's vehicle, which was found abandoned and burned. Officers are unsure of Sparks' motives. She doesn't seem to know Jackson.
AL.com reports another person with Sparks was apparently not involved in the crime and hasn't been charged.

Q: How to redirect nginx based on sub path? I have grafana and jenkins running on same azure vm.
For jenkins: http://localhost:8080
For grafana: http://localhost:3000
I thought to set nginx in such a way.
customdomain.com/grafana should go to http://localhost:3000
customdomain.com/jenkins or customdomain.com should go to http://localhost:8080
But even /grafana is going to jenkins only.
How to fix that?
The, default config file for mapping in nginx.
 location /grafana {
                include /etc/nginx/proxy_params;
                proxy_pass          http://localhost:3000;
                proxy_read_timeout  60s;
        # Fix the "It appears that your reverse proxy set up is broken" error.
        # Make sure the domain name is correct
                #proxy_redirect      http://localhost:3000 https://customdomain.com;
        }

Ever have one of those days when your child is having a tantrum leaving feeling frustrated and feelings of embarrassment. Sometimes when I ask the children in my preschool class to clean up, this sometimes leads into who doesn't want to clean up. I am reminded of a wonderful book I have read The Happiest Toddler On The Block by Harvey Karp. Tantrums are a part of a growing two to five-year-old phase of development, I would love to hear how others have dealt with this issue.

Q: What are requirements to use CouchDB on Android? I'd like to know the requirements to use CouchDB on Android. I've found an example application and the MobileFuton.
Can CouchDB be used without having an external storage and is it usable on low-end devices as it is said to have a large memory and storage footprint?
Please note the related CouchDB Forum Thread

A: External storage (an SD card) is required for Couchbase for Android.  I missed this and didn't have one configured on my emulator.  Took me a bit to figure out that was the problem.
My application is big (for mobile standards).  It weighs in at 15 Mb.  I am using Ektorp (CouchDB JPA like abstraction) which has several dependencies, one which requires a separate Apache HttpClient version (used "jarjar links" to prevent conflicts with the Android shipped HttpClient version). The EmptyApp available from the link below weighs in at 10 Mb.
If size isn't a requirement, I'd recommend it.  Development was an absolute dream.
This is the best tutorial I found on setting it up:
http://www.couchbase.com/wiki/display/couchbase/Android


The minimum bed rate is about $25 per bed.
Service providers who operate night shelters receive funding to cover a predetermined number of beds.
It costs shelters much more than $25 per bed to operate the shelters.
Shelters regularly house far more individuals than the number of beds that receive funding, especially in harsh weather.
An estimated 35% percent of a shelter's expenses get covered through state funding.


If these politicians have their way, the Bank of Canada's mandate will not be altered once they take office.
"I can tell you with some certainty that we would not be looking at a substantial change in that mandate, but we will obviously review it and discuss with the governor (of the Bank of Canada) and others whether there should be any kind of adjustment," Prime Minister Stephen Harper told reporters at a campaign stop in Toronto, according to Reuters.
According to Harper, the current inflation target – and the plan to get it there – is working and doesn't need to be tinkered with.
The bank operates under the guidance of the federal government, and its current policy is to keep inflation near 2%.
The current mandate is set for review in 2016. A change in inflation target is likely a campaign issue for brokers, as it could influence mortgage rates – and industry business.
For his part, Liberal hopeful Justin Trudeau has argued the current regime has taken too active an approach to the central bank – hinting that the current mandate will be held.
"One of the things I think we've seen that has been deplorable over the past month is a willingness by the federal government to engage in a more active way with the Bank of Canada, and lean on it and use it to bolster political arguments," Trudeau told reporters Tuesday in Toronto.
NDP leader Tom Mulcair has yet to comment.
Canadians will head to the voting booth October 19 for the 42nd election.
However, we already have a sense of how brokers will vote.

Ariana Grande Reveals Touring Is 'Hell,' Tweets That She 'Feels Empty'
Ariana Grande admitted performing is bad for her mental health.
The "thank u, next" singer, who's currently in the midst of her Sweetener Tour, revealed touring is "hell" and that performing is like reliving past trauma. Her revelation was the result of a fan tweeting, "Music is your therapy and I love seeing it heal you" — and though most of us expected her to agree, she actually opened up about just how hard it's been for her.
"Making it is healing, performing it is like reliving it all over again and it is hell," she responded.
In a second since-deleted tweet, she elaborated, writing, "Honestly. it's been v hard. I have sm on my mind and it's so heavy and no energy to process or work thru any of it but I'm trying hard. and I have the twins. and seeing u all is so nice. but it's hard emotionally. I wish it were a year ago. I'd give anything."
Grande also added that she feels "empty" and wishes she had "better energy" to give to her fans. "I just feel empty and I wanna have more to say / better energy to give to u and rn I don't have anything. love u," she wrote.
It's no secret the pop star has been through a lot in the last couple of years. Not only did she end her engagement to Pete Davidson but she lost her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller, who died from an alleged accidental overdose in September.
On top of all that, she recently admitted she still suffers from "terrifying" PTSD levels in her brain following the Manchester attack that killed 22 people at her concert in 2017.

Shanghai: The Chinese e-commerce major Alibaba grossed over $25 billion in its 24-hour long 11.11 Global Shopping Festival on Saturday.
The ninth edition of the much anticipated 24-hour annual shopping festival was kicked off at midnight on Friday in China. The festival had promotions and offers from over 140,000 brands and 15 million product listings this year.


Chia seeds have a variety of health benefits when consumed as part of a healthy diet.
These little seeds (yes the same seeds your kids used for their Chia pets) are high in Omega 3 fatty acids and soluble fibers.
They are also high in calcium and magnesium and rich in anti-oxidants. When soaked in water, they swell and soften and slow the absorption of carbohydrates which helps to balance blood sugar levels and is helpful for people with diabetes and who are trying to lose weight.
It is recommended that one or two tablespoons of chia seeds a day will give you all of the health benefits these little seeds have to offer.
You can also incorporate them in a number of different foods and here we would like to show you how to use Chia seeds in some tasty smoothies.
Chia seeds have a neutral slightly nutty flavor that can taste great in smoothies. However, in order to have your smoothie nice and smooth, you need to soften your seeds.
You can do this by soaking your seeds for 10 or 15 minutes in some of the liquids you plan on using in your smoothie. Softening the chia seeds prior to blending makes them easier to mix and will really make your smoothie stand out.
While chia seeds can easily be added to any smoothie, we thought we would offer you some recipes to try.
This orange pineapple smoothie is flavorful and refreshing and makes a perfect breakfast or snack smoothie.
1 ½ cup of orange juice.
Place all of the ingredients into a blender and pulse until all the ingredients are softened. Then blend until smooth, pour into glasses and serve.
If you are looking for a good way to get more leafy green goodness into your family´s diet, this fruity spinach smoothie may just do the trick. Adding Chia seeds to this smoothie is a simple and easy process.
1 Banana cut into small chunks.
½ apple cored and chopped.
8 ounces of vanilla yogurt.
1- Tablespoon of Chia seeds.
Place the chia seeds into the lemonade and soak for 10 or 15 minutes. Then, blend all the ingredients together, except for the yogurt, until smooth. Add the yogurt and blend until it is well mixed and smooth.
This watermelon smoothie makes a great summertime drink and is perfect for those cookouts.
¼ cup of fat free milk.
Place chia seeds into the fat free milk and allow to soak for 10 or 15 minutes. Place ice in the bottom of the blender, add the other ingredients, pulse until ice is broken up and then blend until smooth.
In cases where there is no liquid ingredients for your smoothie, you can soak the chia seeds in yogurt or a small amount of water and then add a bit extra of the more solid ingredients. Chia seeds are extremely easy to use and can give added healthy benefits to any type of smoothie.

The Livonia Arts Commission exists to create, promote, develop, sponsor, sustain, facilitate, and further the Arts within the City of Livonia. For the mission of the Commission and its commissioners, the term "Arts" shall be defined and literally construed to include the making or doing of things that have form and beauty, and to encompass all forms of Arts including the Arts of music, painting, sculpture, literature, dance, theater, opera, ballet, crafts of all natures, and any other of the performing Arts requiring and exhibiting a level of creativity, skill, or talent.
The Livonia Arts Commission was established in April 1974 and held its first meeting in the office of Mayor Edward McNamara. The first year was devoted largely to identifying cultural resources in the City, establishing working relationships with those resources, and educating the new commissioners in the techniques required to build a fine arts program for a blossoming city.
In 1975 the Commission began presenting a variety of artistic and cultural programs throughout the City. The Michigan Opera Theater and the Oakway Symphony participated in workshops and performances during the City's first ever "Opera Month." The first Livonia Art Exhibit made its debut (now called Art From the Heart), and the "Music Under the Stars" program, still going strong in the new millennium, made its premier (now called Music From The Heart). Since that auspicious beginning, the Commission has fostered a rich and diverse series of cultural events, activities, and projects.
Through it all, however, the mission has remained the same - to create, promote, develop, sponsor, sustain, and further the development of the Arts in Livonia. Subsequent Commissions have continued to take that mission seriously and to build upon that heritage in a variety of ways. Today, the Commission fosters programs such as Music from the Heart each summer, the Annual Exhibition of Fine Arts each fall, and the granting of scholarships to high school and college students engaged in the Arts.
In accordance with Title II of the American with Disabilities Act as it pertains to access to Public Meetings, the City Clerk's Office of the City of Livonia, upon adequate notice, will make reasonable accommodations for persons with special needs. If you need assistance, please call (734) 466-2236 or email the Clerk.

Q: Evaluation of Nested Conditional Type - Resulting Types Not Behaving as Expected I have a type which represents a payload from an API call. If a foreign-key is defined on the payload, the payload is known to also contain metadata corresponding to the related record:
type Payload = {
  id: number
  districtAdmin?: string | null
  // added after request for more info
  dedicatedSupport?: string | null
  edges: {
    // if typeof districtAdmin === "string"
    districtAdmin: {
        name: string
    }
    // else
    districtAdmin: never
    // same with dedicatedSupport
  }
}

This Playground is my attempt to implement this type (which only attempts to handle one relationship right now):
type UserDataPayload = {
    id: string
    username: string
}

type OrganizationPayload<
  TR extends string | null = string | null,
> = {
  id: number
  districtAdmin?: TR
  edges: {
    districtAdmin?: TR extends string ? UserDataPayload : never
  }
}

const daUser: UserDataPayload = {
    id: "da",
    username: "da.bob"
}

const daOrg: OrganizationPayload = {
    id: 1,
    districtAdmin: "da",
    edges: {
        districtAdmin: daUser
    }
}
// (property) districtAdmin?: UserDataPayload | undefined
// Object is possibly 'undefined'.(2532)
console.log(daOrg.edges.districtAdmin.username)

A: The conditional type you've got here,
type OrganizationPayload<TR extends string | null = string | null> = {
  id: number
  districtAdmin?: TR
  edges: {
    districtAdmin?: TR extends string ? UserDataPayload : never
  }
}

is generic, and therefore depends on a type parameter TR in order to specify whether the districtAdmin property is either present in both the top level object and the edges subproperty (by specifying string as TR), or absent in both places (by specifying null as TR).

Well, that seems to be the intent, anyway.  That property is optional no matter what, even if you specify string as TR:
type OPS = OrganizationPayload<string>;
/* type OPS = {
  id: number;
  districtAdmin?: string | undefined;
  edges: {
      districtAdmin?: UserDataPayload | undefined;
  };
 } */

So maybe the type should actually be
type OrganizationPayload<TR extends string | null = string | null> = (
  TR extends string ? { districtAdmin: string } : { districtAdmin?: null }
) & {
  id: number;
  edges: (
    TR extends string ? { districtAdmin: UserDataPayload } :
    { districtAdmin?: never }
  )
};

Which now results in
type OPS = OrganizationPayload<string>;
/* type OPS = {
    districtAdmin: string;
} & {
    id: number;
    edges: {
        districtAdmin: UserDataPayload;
    };
} */

type OPN = OrganizationPayload<null>;
/* type OPN = {
    districtAdmin?: null | undefined;
} & {
    id: number;
    edges: {
        districtAdmin?: undefined;
    };
} */

which is equivalent to what you're trying to express, I think.

But then you annotate a variable as being just type OrganizationalPayload with no type argument:
const daOrg: OrganizationPayload = { ... }

Perhaps your intent there is that the compiler should look at the initializing value and infer the most appropriate argument for TR.  That's not what happens.
Your definition of OrganizationalPayload gives TR a default of the union type string | null.  When you leave out the type argument, the compiler just uses that default:
// const daOrg: OrganizationPayload<string | null>

And that type evaluates to
type OP = OrganizationPayload;
/* type OP = ({
    districtAdmin: string;
} | {
    districtAdmin?: null | undefined;
}) & {
    id: number;
    edges: {
        districtAdmin: UserDataPayload;
    } | {
        districtAdmin?: undefined;
    };
} */

which is a type where both properties are optional no matter what, and the presence of districtAdmin at the top level doesn't imply that it will be present in edges.  Oops.
And when you assign that initializing value to the variable, the compiler does not keep track of the particular value that was inside the edges property.  The part of OrganizationPayload where edges is specified is not itself a union type, so there is no narrowing upon assignment.  So you get the error:
console.log(daOrg.edges.districtAdmin.username) // error!
// -------> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
// Object is possibly 'undefined'.

Again, there is no direct way to ask the compiler to infer TR from the initializing value.  There's a suggestion at microsoft/TypeScript#32794 to support this, and if this is ever implemented it might look like
const daOrg: OrganizationPayload<infer> = { ... }

But for now it's not part of the language.  Often in cases like this people write generic helper functions to infer the type parameter, like
const asOrgPayload = <TR,>(op: OrganizationalPayload<TR>) => op;
const daOrg = asOrgPayload({ ... });

but you're not interested in this sort of approach.  And even if you were it would probably need to be modified to get inference to work, since inferring from a conditional type is tricky.

Perhaps OrganizationalPayload<string | null> evaluates to the wrong type, since it allows "cross-correlated" terms.  Since OrganizationalPayload<string> is fine, and OrganizationalPayload<null> is fine, maybe you want OrganizationalPayload<string | null> to evaluate to the union of them.
If so, you could again modify OrganizationalPayload to be a distributive conditional type:
type OrganizationPayload<TR extends string | null = string | null> =
  TR extends unknown ? ((
    TR extends string ? { districtAdmin: string } : { districtAdmin?: null }
  ) & {
    id: number;
    edges: (
      TR extends string ? { districtAdmin: UserDataPayload } :
      { districtAdmin?: never }
    )
  }) : never;

And now OrganizationalPayload evaluates to the proper (albeit ugly) type:
type OP = OrganizationPayload;
/* type OP = (
  { districtAdmin: string; } &
  { id: number;  edges: { districtAdmin: UserDataPayload; }; }
) | (
  { districtAdmin?: null | undefined; } &
  { id: number; edges: { districtAdmin?: undefined; }; }
) */

And narrowing upon assignment happens correctly now, and everything behaves wonderfully!
const daOrg: OrganizationPayload = {
  id: 1,
  districtAdmin: "da",
  edges: { districtAdmin: daUser }
}
console.log(daOrg.edges.districtAdmin.username) // okay

Of course that OrganizationPayload definition is now fairly ugly with three conditional types in it.  They can be rearranged to have just a single conditional type that is equivalent:
type OrganizationPayload<TR extends string | null = string | null> =
  { id: number } & (
    TR extends string ?
    { districtAdmin: string; edges: { districtAdmin: UserDataPayload } } :
    { districtAdmin?: null; edges: { districtAdmin?: never } }
  );

Or possibly even just:
type OrganizationPayload<TR extends string | null = string | null> =
  TR extends string ?
  { id: number; districtAdmin: string; edges: { districtAdmin: UserDataPayload } } :
  { id: number; districtAdmin?: null; edges: { districtAdmin?: never } };

Which becomes, if you don't specify TR:
type OP = OrganizationPayload;
/* type OP =
  { id: number; districtAdmin: string; edges: { districtAdmin: UserDataPayload; }; } |
  { id: number; districtAdmin?: null; edges: { districtAdmin?: never; };
*/

A plain union type.
That implies that conditional types, while possibly useful to the typings developer so they don't have to repeat things, really aren't what's useful to the users of the type... unions are the supported method to do the kind of narrowing you're expecting.
But you're not interested in that sort of approach either.  Unions are a no-go for you, presumably because your type will end up with some large power of two of union members if you write that (like this).

So at this point I'd say I'm stuck.  Conditional types don't, in and of themselves, give you the behavior you're looking for.  You'd need to either use a generic helper function or a union for inference and/or assignment narrowing.  Or some other possible approach (I didn't get into existentially quantified generic types here because they're not directly part of the language and even if they were you wouldn't get the narrowing you're apparently looking for.)
Hopefully at least you understand why the current approach doesn't work.
