Red Bull, the market leader in energy drink products, has launched a High Court bid to block sales and distribution of a rival beverage marketed under the 'Bullet' label. Sun Mark Ltd. which launched its 'Bullet' product six years ago, and its shipping company, are facing a legal action brought by Austria-based Red Bull GmbH for alleged trademark infringement. Red Bull claims that the 'Bullet' energy drink undermines its own 'Bullit' trademarks. Also at stake in the dispute is Sun Mark's use of the slogan 'No Bull In This Can' in connection with its drink, which Red Bull's lawyers claim is 'detrimental' to its reputation. However, Sun Mark's barrister, Anna Edwards-Stuart, argued before Mr Justice Arnold that the 'Bullit' trademarks should be declared invalid, having been 'applied for in bad faith'. "That is in the sense that the 'Bullit' marks were registered by Red Bull, as part of a massive trade mark portfolio, not with any genuine intention to use the marks but as 'blocking' registrations to extend the scope of the protection of its primary Red Bull trade mark," she added. Red Bull's barrister, Jacqueline Reed, denied that the company had acted in bad faith when applying to register the 'Bullit' trademarks and argued that Sun Mark was guilty of simple infringement. Sun Mark denies it intended its 'No Bull In This Can' advertising strapline to have any derogatory meaning. "It meant that there was no rubbish in the can", the company argues. Sun Mark's Company Secretary, Mrs Renu Ranger, said that Sun Mark had always planned to use the 'Bullet' name for its 'effective and powerful' energy drink and that the name was ideal for a tonic associated with 'strength and power'. Sun Mark's decision to produce a can in a similar size to that used for the Red Bull product was a coincidence based on the market popularity of smaller cans, she added. In the build-up to the launch of 'Bullet', Mrs Ranger said she had received several letters from Red Bull demanding that the drink be withdrawn. However, by that time, she said that Sun Mark had expended 'a lot of time, effort and money' on the product. Sun Mark's shipping company, Sea Air & Land Forwarding Ltd, registered the 'Bullet' trade mark in December 2001, but the registration was invalidated at the behest of Red Bull in 2005. Miss Edwards-Stuart earlier told the court that Sun Mark is a highly successful company and, amongst other accolades, was awarded the Queen's Award for Enterprise in International Trade in 2009, 2010 and 2011.

The '''monkey gainer''' or '''kong gainer''' is a [[free running]] move which involves a practitioner performing a [[monkey vault|monkey]] or [[kong vault|kong]] vault and using the leverage from their arms to push themselves immediately into a [[gainer]] without their feet coming into contact with the ground.
'''Invention and landed on grass'''
===Daniel Ilabaca===
On April 15th 2007, a video showing [[Daniel Ilabaca]] doing a Monkey Gainer at the [[Pavilion]] in Liverpool was uploaded to Chris Ilabaca's YouTube account<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h70cuvFH1Ac "Kong Gainer"]. Youtube.</ref>. The clip had the effect of a bomb in the Free Running community because not only was it a brand new move but it was also done off a fairly high drop into grass.
The clip was originally uploaded as ''Monkey Gainer'', but due to requests from the community<ref>'''Chris Ilabaca''': I've decided to change the name for or the die hard fans of name calling, as we can see this is clearly a Kong Gainer... Not a monkey Gainer... Really sorry! While learning this move Daniel wasn't focused on the name? i will pass on the message tho.. He needs to focus on the name first and then the movement.. Thank you for your advice everyone!</ref>.

Q: Python Generator "chain" in a for loop I'm trying to set up a "processing pipeline" for data that I'm reading in from a data source, and applying a sequence of operators (using generators) to each item as it is read.
Some sample code that demonstrates the same issue.
def reader():
    yield 1
    yield 2
    yield 3

def add_1(val):
    return val + 1

def add_5(val):
    return val + 5

def add_10(val):
    return val + 10

operators = [add_1, add_5, add_10]

def main():
    vals = reader()

    for op in operators:
        vals = (op(val) for val in vals)

    return vals

print(list(main()))

Desired : [17, 18, 19]
Actual: [31, 32, 33]
Python seems to not be saving the value of op each time through the for loop, so it instead applies the third function each time. Is there a way to "bind" the actual operator function to the generator expression each time through the for loop?
I could get around this trivially by changing the generator expression in the for loop to a list comprehension, but since the actual data is much larger, I don't want to be storing it all in memory at any one point.

A: You can define a little helper which composes the functions but in reverse order:
import functools

def compose(*fns):
    return functools.reduce(lambda f, g: lambda x: g(f(x)), fns)

I.e. you can use compose(f,g,h) to generate a lambda expression equivalent to lambda x: h(g(f(x))). This order is uncommon, but ensures that your functions are applied left-to-right (which is probably what you expect):
Using this, your main becomes just
def main():
    vals = reader()
    f = compose(add_1, add_5, add_10)
    return (f(v) for v in vals)

A: You can force a variable to be bound by creating the generator in a new function. eg.
def map_operator(operator, iterable):
    # closure value of operator is now separate for each generator created
    return (operator(item) for item in iterable)

def main():
    vals = reader()
    for op in operators:
        vals = map_operator(op, vals)
    return vals

However, map_operator is pretty much identical to the map builtin (in python 3.x). So just use that instead.

A: This may be what you want - create a composite function:
import functools

def compose(functions):
    return functools.reduce(lambda f, g: lambda x: g(f(x)), functions, lambda x: x)

def reader():
    yield 1
    yield 2
    yield 3

def add_1(val):
    return val + 1

def add_5(val):
    return val + 5

def add_10(val):
    return val + 10

operators = [add_1, add_5, add_10]

def main():
    vals = map(compose(operators), reader())
    return vals

print(list(main()))

A: The reason for this problem is that you are creating a deeply nested generator of generators and evaluate the whole thing after the loop, when op has been bound to the last element in the list -- similar to the quite common "lambda in a loop" problem.
In a sense, your code is roughly equivalent to this:
for op in operators:
    pass

print(list((op(val) for val in (op(val) for val in (op(val) for val in (x for x in [1, 2, 3])))))

One (not very pretty) way to fix this would be to zip the values with another generator, repeating the same operation:
def add(n):
    def add_n(val):
        return val + n
    return add_n
operators = [add(n) for n in [1, 5, 10]]

import itertools
def main():
    vals = (x for x in [1, 2, 3])

    for op in operators:
        vals = (op(val) for (val, op) in zip(vals, itertools.repeat(op)))

    return vals

print(list(main()))

One of every 10 U.S. high schools is considered a "dropout factory," a term that education researchers use for schools in which no more than 60 percent of freshmen reach their senior year. While some of the missing students transferred to other districts, education officials say most dropped out.
In Connecticut, 14 public high schools fit that criteria based on averaging the 2004, 2005 and 2006 classes. That is 9 percent of the 155 high schools for which there was complete data in each of the years.
The following list includes the school and the senior year class size as a percentage of the original freshman class size.

HDD Pictures of White Wooden Flooring for Your Home? Think Twice!
White Wooden Flooring might be a good idea to brighten your room. It can be your kitchen or living room, or dining room. You can choose such as Polar white laminate flooring to beautify your floor and your home. But there are some problems that you must be ready to face if you choose this color rather than dark flooring.
Some people confess that White Wooden Flooring is beautiful and can brighten their kitchen, living room, or dining room. They can do it more than it's expected. White flooring can be easy to clean though the floor attracts dirt. But, what makes it troublesome is that, the dirt comes in almost every minute. Hair, dust, cat fur, for example, can be collected in 24 hours. If it happens to you and you have chosen white flooring, then you can choose a more textured floor finish in order to hide the dirt.
If that kind of situation comes to you, all you need to think before choosing white flooring is that you have to consider your environment. Besides, you must have cleaning commitment, too. For example, if you are living in an apartment, you can make a rule with no shoes are coming, or no pets go for it. To make cleaning commitment, be prepared to sweep the floor daily, or even every 6 hours if you are ready to choose White Wooden Flooring for your home.
Pictures of beatiful white wooden flooring is created to be the inspiration of for you.

and now we are out tomorrow!
My snow day today consisted of being a "front desk lady."
and I joined in on the fun.
I was also the front desk lady!
and drawing out maps of the different buildings.
I made some pom-pom letters!
I began by tracing letters on to the card stock.
I had super cute pom-pom letters.
I am still having a temporary pom-pom obsession.
The trouble is deciding where to put them!

Q: Trying to groupby Pyspark df without aggregation (i think) I am trying to groupby the following pyspark dataframe to combine the renewal_mo values but can't seem to figure it out.
I have this dataframe:
+--------------+----------+----------+---------+----------+---------+
|First_Purchase|Renewal_Mo|second_buy|third_buy|fourth_buy|fifth_buy|
+--------------+----------+----------+---------+----------+---------+
|6             |1         |1         |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |12        |36        |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |24        |4         |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |18        |2         |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |3         |6         |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |2         |8         |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |36        |1         |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |6         |12        |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |12        |0         |1        |0         |0        |
|6             |3         |0         |1        |0         |0        |
|6             |2         |0         |7        |0         |0        |
|6             |6         |0         |1        |0         |0        |
|6             |1         |0         |0        |1         |0        |
|6             |12        |0         |0        |1         |0        |
+--------------+----------+----------+---------+----------+---------+

and would like to combine the values in renewal_mo so there are no duplicates and produce this dataframe:
|First_Purchase|Renewal_Mo|second_buy|third_buy|fourth_buy|fifth_buy|
+--------------+----------+----------+---------+----------+---------+
|6             |1         |1         |0        |1         |0        |
|6             |12        |36        |1        |1         |0        |
|6             |24        |4         |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |18        |2         |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |3         |6         |1        |0         |0        |
|6             |2         |8         |7        |0         |0        |
|6             |36        |1         |0        |0         |0        |
|6             |6         |12        |1        |0         |0        |
+--------------+----------+----------+---------+----------+---------+

But groupby seems to be the wrong approach as it requires passing an aggregate function. Can I use windows partition somehow? Might there be some other way?  What am I missing here?
If I try
foo.groupby('First_Purchase','Renewal_Mo').count().show(truncate=False)

I lose the buy columns of course and it only counts the instances of the Renewal_Mo. I am not sure how to approach this to get the desired dataframe immediately above
+--------------+----------+-----+
|First_Purchase|Renewal_Mo|count|
+--------------+----------+-----+
|6             |1         |2    |
|6             |12        |3    |
|6             |24        |1    |
|6             |18        |1    |
|6             |3         |2    |
|6             |2         |2    |
|6             |36        |1    |
|6             |6         |2    |
+--------------+----------+-----+

A: I dont understand why you say that groupby is a wrong approach since it needs an aggregate function.
The only way I would do it is grouping and aggregating, there is a built in function sum that does exactly what you want:
df.groupBy('First_Purchase','Renewal_Mo') \
    .agg({'second_by': 'sum',
          'third_by':  'sum'}) # So on with remaining columns

The only thing it happends is that this method changes the column names but you can easily solve it with multiple approaches.

A: I also think that the groupBy is reasonable.
from pyspark.sql.functions import *
import builtins as p

df.groupBy('First_Purchase', 'Renewal_Mo') \
  .agg(*[max(c).alias(c) for c in df.columns[2:]]) \
  .show()

+--------------+----------+----------+---------+----------+---------+
|First_Purchase|Renewal_Mo|second_buy|third_buy|fourth_buy|fifth_buy|
+--------------+----------+----------+---------+----------+---------+
|             6|         1|         1|        0|         1|        0|
|             6|        12|        36|        1|         1|        0|
|             6|        24|         4|        0|         0|        0|
|             6|        18|         2|        0|         0|        0|

The advancement and proliferation of digital media has created an amazing opportunity to address the needs of readers with disabilities. Technology facilitates features that can now enable those with hearing or vision impairments to consume the same content as non-disabled readers. While companies just entering the digital market may hesitate to invest in accessible publishing, the returns can benefit everyone involved.
A major concern of many publishers is that accessible publishing means creating a system completely separate from their current model. However, the software that enables accessibility features can be used to create any digital media. Though adopting the software requires some investment and transition, once the process is in place, all media can be produced using these programs.
By producing all content through accessible formats, publishers have a new market: individuals with auditory impairment, visual impairment, colorblindness or dyslexia. These readers have historically struggled to find accessible materials, which left their market potential untapped. Once options that meet their needs become available, these readers can become a highly profitable demographic.
In the digital age, consumers expect devices and content to conform to their preferences. Accessible publishing can offer the customization non-disabled readers demand while meeting the ethical standard of providing media that meets the needs of disabled consumers.
Transitioning to accessible publishing can be daunting, but Amnet has a number of resources to assist you along the way. Whether you're looking to transform existing content or create born accessible media, Amnet can help you make the switch to compliant formats.

Choice Outstanding Academic Title, American Library Association (2015)
The calamitous impacts of climate change that are beginning to be felt around the world today expose the inextricability of human and natural histories. Arguing for a more complex account of such calamities, Kate Rigby examines a variety of past disasters, from the Black Death of the Middle Ages to the mega-hurricanes of the twenty-first century, revealing the dynamic interaction of diverse human and nonhuman factors in their causation, unfolding, and aftermath.
Focusing on the link between the ways disasters are framed by the stories told about them and how people tend to respond to them in practice, Rigby also shows how works of narrative fiction invite ethical reflection on human relations with one another, with our often unruly earthly environs, and with other species in the face of eco-catastrophe. In its investigation of an array of authors from the Romantic period to the present—including Heinrich von Kleist, Mary Shelley, Theodor Storm, Colin Thiele, and Alexis Wright— Dancing with Disaster demonstrates the importance of the environmental humanities in the development of more creative, compassionate, ecologically oriented, and socially just responses to the perils and possibilities of the Anthropocene.
Under the Sign of Nature: Explorations in Ecocriticism
Dancing with Disaster operates within what is, I believe, the most productive vein of contemporary environmental-theoretical thought and mines that vein significantly further in both theoretical and practical ways. It affiliates itself meaningfully with recent turns toward active matter, material feminist, and material ecocritical theory, and interprets a series of texts through a natural-cultural lens that not only yields a series of excellent close readings of diverse texts but also makes those readings innovative and instructive in a number of ways.
Frederick Buell, CUNY Queens, author of From Apocalypse to Way of Life: Environmental Crisis in the American Century
Rigby provides a compelling portrait of our evolving relationship with our material environs. Lucid, thoughtful, and eloquently written, Dancing with Disaster will be of interest to scholars across the environmental humanities, cultural studies, and literature from Romanticism to the present day.
Journal of American Studies
[S]howcase[s] the capaciousness of current environmental humanities practice and thegrowth of ecocriticism from its origins examining Anglo-American nature writing.... Rigby draws out the "material-discursive" nature of disaster through the structure of her book, the careful literary analyses she performs, and her insistence on interrogating how lexical shifts from "disaster" to "natural disaster" to "eco-catastrophe" (her preferredterm) structure human-nonhuman relations.

Q: Ruby on rails get mysql information depending on option value I am wondering how I should go about retrieving information from a mysql database associated with my ruby on rails app. When a user selects a product from the select box, I want to use the value of the selected option to retrieve the product's description and price from the database and then display it in a div. Using the following code:
    <select>
        <option value='1'>milk</option>
        <option value='2'>eggs</option>
        <option value='3'>butter</option>
    </select>

When a user selects eggs for example, the first div would read: 'chicken babies' and the second div would read: '$2.00'.
My select tag is also populated from the database, if that is important to know.
The code to populate the select:
    <select>
        <option>Select Add-on</option>
        <% for product in @products %>
        <option value="<%= product.id %>"><%= product.item %></option>
        <% end %>
    </select>

I am also using jquery.
I guess I was basically wondering  if I should just use an ajax call or if there was some magic rails way to accomplish the task. If I need to use ajax, can I just do it all from the js.coffee file? I can't figure out how to get the selected options value passed on to another file to select the correct row from the products table.

A: You should use options_for_select to generate your options:
http://apidock.com/rails/ActionView/Helpers/FormOptionsHelper/
<%= options_for_select([["Dollar", "$"], ["Kroner", "DKK"]]) %>
#generates
<option value="$">Dollar</option>
<option value="DKK">Kroner</option>

Combined with a select_tag to generate the select:
http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/FormTagHelper.html#method-i-select_tag
<% options = "<option>Red</option><option>Green</option><option>Blue</option>".html_safe %>
<%= select_tag "colors", options %>

#generates
<select id="colors" multiple="multiple" name="colors[]">
  <option>Red</option>
  <option>Green</option>
  <option>Blue</option>
</select>

In your case:
<% options = options_for_select(@products.map{ |product| [product.item, product.id] }) %>
<%= select_tag('product_search', options) %>

# jQuery
$('#product_search').bind('Click', function(e) {
  var selected_product_id = $(this).val();
  # Then call the Ajax
  $.ajax({url: '/products/details/' + selected_product_id, # URL to contact
          type: 'GET',
          success: function(data) {
                     $('#product_details').empty().append(data);
                   }
        });
});

*

*This code will send a request at path '/products/details/:id' where :id represents the product's id (ProductsController#details).

Now you have to code the server side to handle the request, generate the HTML (or responds with JSON, faster but heavier to handle on the client side) and send a response.

Amazon started widely selling its Echo speaker, voiced by the personal assistant Alexa, in 2015. Since then, the name has declined in popularity 33%.

Amazon started widely selling its Echo speaker, voiced by the Star Trek-inspired personal assistant Alexa, in 2015. That year, 6,050 baby girls in the United States were named Alexa, or 311 for every 100,000 female babies born.
Since then, the name has declined in popularity 33 percent, according to new data from the Social Security Administration crunched by University of Maryland sociology professor Philip Cohen. Last year, just 3,883 baby girls were named Alexa.
Siri, Apple's virtual assistant that launched on iPhones in 2011, has never been a very popular name. That name peaked in popularity two years earlier, when 120 female babies in the U.S. were named Siri, about 6 per every 100,000 girls.
Last year, 20 U.S. girls were named 'Siri,' or about 1 per every 100,000.
Are people afraid that their Echo will answer when they call out their kid's name? Or are they just tired of hearing it all the time? Maybe people just don't want to call their virtual assistant and their child by the same name.

Q: Which tool to use: an index or a glossary? I have this situation:

*

*My book needs an alphabetical index, used for finding on which page an item appeared.

*My book needs a glossary, used for looking up the definition of the item.

*Every indexed items will appear in the glossary and vice versa.

*I need something compact, but easy to read.

Therefore, it seems fitting that there should only be one section to refer to in the back, either an index (with definitions) or a glossary (which serves as an index). Which would be the best way to go? Is there another choice?
Do publishers ever combine the glossary and index into one section? What do they call it?

A: A glossary may include not only definitions of certain items, but also (like an index) indicate the page(s) where these items appeared. If, in addition, every indexed item (and not only a subset) also appears in the glossary, a separate index is superfluous.
Here's an example of a (hopefully) "compact, but easy to read" glossary produced with help of the glossaries package. You may also use the hyperref package (which, unlike with most others packages, must be loaded before glossaries) to add hyperlinks in the glossary as well as in the main text body.
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{hyperref}

\usepackage{glossaries}
\makeglossaries

\newglossaryentry{electrolyte}{name=electrolyte,%
    description={solution able to conduct electric current}}

\textheight=80pt% just for the example

First city of Detroit forecast projects faster job growth than state of Michigan
Tags: Detroit Forecast, Economic Mobility, University Economic Analysis Partnership
By: Greta Guest, Michigan News
RSQE
Detroit Forecast
The city of Detroit in partnership with the University of Michigan today released its first forecast for the city, which showed ongoing gains in household income, employment and labor force participation through 2024.
The forecast reports a 1.7% growth rate in employment for Detroit in 2019, exceeding the 1% growth rate of household employment in Michigan last year.
U-M economist Donald Grimes said that labor force participation is expected to rise to 48.5% from 47.3% between 2018 and 2024 as new job opportunities are created from developments such as the FCA Mack Avenue plant and Gordie Howe International Bridge.
"Bringing new jobs to Detroit and filling them with Detroiters has been a cornerstone of the mayor's economic development strategy," said David Massaron, chief financial officer for the city of Detroit. "This independent forecast validates that strategy as we work to ensure Detroiters have opportunities for good jobs."
The forecast was produced by economists at the U-M's Research Seminar in Quantitative Economics, who are part of the partnership with the city of Detroit and economists at Michigan State and Wayne State universities.
"We expect Detroit's ongoing recovery to form a key component of Michigan's economic growth through 2024," said Gabriel Ehrlich, director of RSQE.
According to the forecast, the city's unemployment rate will continue to fall from 18.7% in July 2013, when the city filed for bankruptcy, to 8.6% in 2019, and to 7.9% by 2023 and 2024, improving faster than the statewide measure.
"Detroit has vastly improved its financial position and prepared for any future financial hiccups by doubling its rainy day fund," said U-M economist Daniil Manaenkov. "Despite that progress, Detroit's economy continues to face well-known challenges, including an elevated poverty rate and relatively low educational attainment among its residents."
By developing Detroit-specific data, the city government and community stakeholders can quantify local economic conditions and to plan, design, finance and evaluate programs to improve economic opportunities for Detroiters.
"This difference in untapped labor should allow the city to benefit more than the state as labor markets continue to tighten," said U-M economist Aditi Thapar.
Among the forecast highlights:
Employment is expected to expand by about 6,700 jobs through 2024 with most gains coming from service sector jobs such as financial, professional and business services; leisure and hospitality; and education and health care. Major new construction projects will also add considerably to city resident employment.
Manufacturing is projected to remain Detroit's second-largest sector, behind education and health services, making up 16% of overall employment.
Total resident income is forecast to rise by 4-4.7% per year from 2020 to 2024, outpacing statewide income growth.
Most of the public economic data used in the Detroit forecast is only available at the county or regional level. The city's Office of the Chief Financial Officer and its University Economic Analysis Partnership are working with the State of Michigan's Bureau of Labor Market Information and Strategic Initiatives to produce detailed payroll employment and wage estimates for the city of Detroit. This effort will provide new insights into the local economy not previously available for use in future forecasts.

Q: Java generics has-a declaration I have a generic AVL tree class declared as:
public class AVLTree<T extends Comparable<T>>

I get compiler errors in another class whenever I try to initialize the avl tree class as generics in the constructor.
public class PQAVL<T> {
private AVLTree<T extends Comparable<T>> avl;
    public PQAVL() {
        avl = new AVLTree<T extends Comparable<T>>(true);
    }
}

I have tried several different declarations all receiving errors. Does anyone know how I would declare this correctly?

A: The syntax of <T extends ...> is used when declaring a new type variable.
You cannot declare a new type variable when declaring a variable or field. Nor can you declare a new type variable as a tpe argument for an initialization expression such as
avl = new AVLTree<T extends Comparable<T>>(true);

You'll need to change your class to something like
public class PQAVL<T extends Comparable<T>> {
    private AVLTree<T> avl;
    public PQAVL() {
        avl = new AVLTree<T>(true);
    }
}

so that the type parameter is declared at the class level and has the appropriate bounds.

A: I believe that public class PQAVL<T> needs to be public class PQAVL<T extends Comparable<T>>.
What you currently do accepts any T as a generic to the class, then ensure at a lower level that it is Comparable. You have to do this at the class declaration level.

A: You just need to use AVLTree<T>.
The "extends Comparable<T>" part just specifies a restriction on what T can be, but isn't something you specify when declaring variables of that type. You only specify that when you declare the type itself.
By the way, it's an odd choice of wording to say "has-a declaration"; typically we just call "avl" a "field" here.

Ryanhood, acoustic duo from Tucson, headlines at the me&thee
« Conflict of Interest, presented by Actors Studio of Newburyport
Winslow Homer: New Insights – Full-day Symposium »
Named Best Group/Duo in the 2014 International Acoustic Music Awards, Ryanhood (Ryan Green and Cameron Hood) got their first break morethan a decade ago as street-performers at Boston's Quincy Market. Spotted there by a college booking agent, they were thrust into the college touring scene, where Campus Activities Magazine would name them one of themost requested acts by college buyers all across the country. They've since gone on to perform more than 1000 shows in 45 U.S. states over the past decade and have shared stages with Jason Mraz, Matt Nathanson, Train,and many more. Cameron Hood's rich and folky lead vocals, Ryan Green's explosive guitar and mandolin riffs, and their airtight vocal harmonies prompted the Arizona Daily Star to call them "a match made in radioheaven." And their star is still on the rise. They were recently named the Discovery of the Year by noted radio DJ John Platt at WFUV in New York City and Most Wanted Artist at 2018 Falcon Ridge Folk Festival. They were also a featured act at Australia's National Folk Festival in April 2018. Ryanhood's sixth and newest album, Yearbook, is led by their signature two-part vocal harmonies, decorated with flares of guitar, ukulele, and mandolin, and centers on songs about being young, growing old, and making peace with the passing of time. They currently reside in their hometown of Tucson, AZ, where they have won more than a dozen Tucson MusicAwards including Best Folk Band and Best Rock Band.

Q: Converting text to small number javascript I am trying to make a real time chat system. I am sending messages and saving them to the database. But before saving  the message into database i need to encrypt it with using NTRU for Integers algorithm. In order to use this algorithm i have to convert text into numbers. I already tried to convert to ASCII code but its creating too big number for algorithm. Is there any way to convert text into small numbers? Saving into database with parent.send_message(chat_input.value)
 create_chat(){

  var parent = this;

  var title_container = document.getElementById('title_container')
  var title = document.getElementById('title')
  title_container.classList.add('chat_title_container')

  title.classList.add('chat_title')

If we are looking for professionals who work with certain technologies (for example, Linux, Selenium, Tensorflow, or NetSuite) and have not been able to find enough to cover the demand, how can we find more? If we know that a company uses a particular technology, then the employees who are on a team that uses the technology are likely to use it too. That includes professionals whom we won't find online by the keywords.
What are the largest companies that use Selenium for automated testing?
Which companies use Tensorflow for deep learning?
Which companies in Seattle use NetSuite products?
Look at job posts. Here is an example job search on Indeed.com – full-time in New York, with Selenium. See the list of identified companies circled in green. These companies use Selenium. We can expect someone who is in the testing department to use Selenium even if they don't say that on their LinkedIn profile or do not have that profile at all.
2. Search on a social site with a large number of target professionals. This could be LinkedIn or XING or an industry-oriented social site. If we search for people on LinkedIn using a technology keyword, we won't find "everybody" – but we will find many profiles, which, in turn, will "tell us" about potential target companies.

Q: Need to close dialog on opening of any other dialog on click of flot bar chart I have my code as a jsFiddle. i need to close the previous dialog(if open any) on click of bar so that i can just show my new dialog. I am not able to do that.
Here is my javascript code here which handles the tooltip
function pieClick(event, pos, obj)
{
if (obj) {
showTooltip(obj.pageX, obj.pageY,
                            obj.series.label);
}}

function showTooltip(x, y, contents) {
var tooltip = $('
' + contents
        + '
');
tooltip.css({
    top : y - 25,
    left : x + 15
}).appendTo("body").fadeIn(10);
}

$("#placeholder").bind("plotclick", pieClick);

I need to do something in this pieClick() function. But i am not able to figure out how to do...How to do it?

A: Add this line to the start of your pieClick Method:
$(".tooltip").fadeOut(10);

Updated fiddle
Update: Thinking a little more about this, it's probably worth throwing in this line:
$(".tooltip").Remove();

To actually remove the content. Otherwise you'll keep adding content to the body of the document every time somebody clicks.
If you want to make sure you can still fade out the old tooltip, you can do this:
var old = $(".tooltip").fadeOut(10, function(){
    old.remove();
});

Although if your fadeout is 10ms, you probably won't notice the difference.


Years ago, John Fairclough challenged his company, Resicom, to "become the company that we sell." Recently, John taught The Junto Institute's class on self-awareness, and threw down the same challenge to the Junto companies.
This phrase stuck with the Junto II CEOs, since many of them listed it as a key takeaway from class. John urged the class to see self-awareness not as just a personal endeavor, but something to practice as a company. Organizational awareness is acknowledging if there's a difference between what's advertised and what's really going on within company walls.
A company can't claim to be aware if it boasts a thriving culture to job candidates, but behind closed doors the leadership complains about toxic employees. Transparency and teamwork can be central values sold to customers, but how can that be delivered on, if back at the office employees regularly experience miscommunication and disorganization?
John stressed that becoming the company that you sell is all about aligning statements with standards, and this is the difference between an efficient growth company and a stagnant business about to crumble.
Awareness is powerful practice and it's not just a personal thing. Companies and people alike can grow and improve by aligning who they say they are with who they actually are.
Emotional intelligence (EI) is typically thought of in the context of individuals and, for us in particular, the leadership of growth companies. What we learned from this class is it's not just individuals or leadership but a company that can become emotionally intelligent.
In the interest of streamlining our curriculum, we seriously considered the prospect of eliminating the EI classes from the 10-month program. After seeing how well this class was received as the first EI topic, we can't imagine the program without it.

A Look at Sweet Annie; a prim crafter's best friend!
Several other names for Sweet Annie include Sweet Wormwood, Chinese Fragrant Fern and Artemisia Annua.
Sweet Annie has feathery green foliage and small yellow flowers which bloom Mid Summer, Late Summer/Early Fall. It holds its color very well when dried, and it seems to keep its scent much longer than any other herb.
It's easily grown from seed. Just sow your seeds after any danger of frost is past. If left to go to seed in the fall, Sweet Annie will pop up in your garden year after year. Some might call this a noxious weed and it can become invasive, but Sweet Annie attracts bees, butterflies and birds. It self-sows freely; so deadhead if you do not want volunteer seedlings next season.
This will grow best in a sunny location, but does not need any special soil. Sweet Annie grows up to six feet in height, so be sure to plant near the back of a flower bed. It has average water needs, just water regularly but don't over water.
To harvest Sweet Annie, just cut the stems off close to the ground.
To dry: Bunch the stems together, tying a group at the base, hang upside down in a dry, dark, open, airy place. To collect seed head/pods when flowers fade; allow seed heads to dry on plants; remove and collect seeds.
People with allergies may have trouble working with Sweet Annie. You can spray a little hair spray on the greens before handling or wear gloves. Sweet Annie is also an excellent deer deterrent!
The use of Sweet Annie in medicine dates back to ancient China, where it was used to treat fever. It has been used in connection with Malaria, Fever, Infectious Diarrhea and Intestinal Parasites. Artemisia-based drugs are not readily available in the United States or Europe and are still considered experimental.
Dried or fresh, Sweet Annie is a primitive artists dream to use in wreaths and so many other prim creations!
This article was contributed by Debbie of Barefoot Primitives. Debbie is a master gardener and is a wealth of knowledge to those of us here a wsoapp who love to garden!
April Showers bring those May flowers! So here at Wsoapp, wet took a closer look at some of those very old, traditional garden favorites and discovered the folklore that contributed to their names.
These two much-loved wildflowers have a romantic legend in common, told in an old English poem by John Gay: "All in the downs the fleet was moored, banners waving in the wind. When Black-eyed Susan came aboard, and eyed the burly men.
'Tell me ye sailors, tell me true, if my Sweet William sails with you.'" This search for Sweet William is one of the all-time favorite wildflower legends, and good gardeners always note that these two species are both biennials, bloom at exactly the same time, and look lovely together.
How the Forget-me-not got its name.
This is a romantic and haunting legend indeed. It is said that a medieval German knight and his lady love were courting together beside a stream. Seeing the lovely sky blue flowers on the banks he began to gather them for his sweet. Without notice tragedy struck the young man when a flash flood descended and swept him into the rushing water. As he was pulled away he tossed the bouquet to his love and uttered the forever famous words. Forget Me Not.
Daisy chains should always have their ends joined when finished as they represent the sun, the earth, and the circle of life. It was once believed that dressing a child in a daisy chain would protect them from being stolen by the fairies.
In the language of flowers sweet peas are used to say farewell. Sweet peas are said in European folklore to bring good luck, protect children from harm, and promote friendship. This would be an excellent plant for any cottage or child friendly garden.
What cottage garden would be complete without the old fashioned hollyhock? In fact in the early days here in America, the Hollyhock was often planted around outhouses in order to "afford gentlewomen a tad bit more privacy". So when one of our Victorian ancestors needed to use the restroom, she would discretely ask her hosts where their Hollyhock garden was-a proper lady never mentioned an outhouse by name! In the language of the flowers, hollyhock means abundance, fertility, mother of the family, and in some versions, ambition, particularly female ambition.

We feature the pants from True Royal a lot in this editorial. I find them extremely beautiful and if you saw them up close, you would know what I mean. They have so much detail and quality about them that every woman should own a pair. Overall we wanted to suggest that being comfortable in everyday life is very important and all these outfits do just that, they are as comfortable as one would like, in any situation, but are also very stylish and striking to look at.
The most difficult aspect is to have them all understand what the vision is, because when it grows and evolves on set, it is important to know all the artist will take in the right direction. Picking the right team then is based on the consistency of their work. When you know what an artist likes doing and where they like going with their expression, it is easier to count on them fitting with the direction of particular projects.
The biggest mistake beginner artists make is that they think too selfishly about the work they create. All the artist on the team need to realize that it should fit into a larger discourse of fashion, style and culture. If they see this, then they will create amazing work that will reflect the times.
My style is about shape and form, I like clean lines and polish.
Weakness: allow for a lot of input from the team, doesn't always work out. Strength: adapt well to pressure and on set challenges.
One misconception is the perception is that we communicate an adverse representation of what normal beauty is, mostly by the retouching techniques applied to photos. Victoria Secret lined up their models, photographed them and printed it as a campaign without retouching. The ladies looks as amazing as ever. Those women work hard to look great, and they have all the blessings in that regard. Another is that people in fashion are superficial. I think there is a percentage that are, but a lot more that are well cultured, thoughtful and passionate.
Working out (P90x, Insanity videos) lots of good food, no junk food or processed food, multivitamins and taking time to relax with friends and a drink.
Poptron is my favorite. Electro.
Be a good person. Believe in yourself and you can do anything you put your mind to.


An Israel Defense Forces helicopter attacked two Hamas positions in the Gaza Strip Sunday evening in response to a suspicious cluster of balloons launched from the Strip earlier in the day, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit says.
Further attacks in Gaza were reported in the southern and central strip. Another report claims the Israel Air Force attacked a Hamas position in the northern Strip.
Local police were called to Sdot Negev Regional Council earlier Sunday after the balloons were found in an open area.
"Hamas is responsible for what is happening in and out of the Gaza Strip. The IDF will continue to act in defense of Israeli citizens and against terror from the Gaza Strip," the IDF said in response.
Tamir Idan, head of the Sdot Negev Regional Council, said: "The response of the IDF to detonate the explosive device this morning in Sdot Negev was necessary. Hamas pushes the limit and checks Israel's policy of containment and restraint."
Two weeks ago an Israel Defense Force helicopter struck a Hamas target in southern Gaza after a rocket launched from the Strip fell into an open area near Israel's southern communities.
The border has been relatively quiet the since latest escalation over a month and a half ago when some 460 rockets and missiles were fired from Gaza into Israel. The IDF retaliated by attacking more than 160 targets including buildings belonging to Hamas and Islamic Jihad, killing a total of seven in the Gaza Strip.

Dominican Selection 1000 Torpedo cigars are handmade with a mild to medium-bodied blend of choice Dominican-grown, Cuban-seed Ligero and Seco tobaccos, Olor binder and an aromatic Sumatra wrapper. The smoke is creamy, toasty, and delicately spicy. Order this tasty, everyday cigar value now.
Bought a bundle for the golf course, lit one up yesterday and was I ever suprised. Great cigar and now that I see they are on sale for 26 bucks it blows my mind. Good flavor, not as much as a super premium but its there. Good construction and pack. Stays lit all the way through. A must try for cheapie events like golfing.
Excellent Bundled Cigar, Excellent Price!
The torpedo is my favorite bundled cigar. The secret is to let them age in the humidor for about a month. I pass these out to friends who visit and they are surprised. These are my everyday (afterwork) smoke and save the really excellent premium ones for my weekend reward!
Well now it's been over a month since I got these cigars, and I've been plowing through them quite quickly. Delicious!
Bargain Hunters will love this cigar!
I got four bundles of this cigar off of cigarauctioneer.com. Famous Smoke has almost always given me some good cigar deals, but this is one of the tops! I smoked one out of the bundle and was thoroughly impressed. Mild to medium in strength, good tobacco/leathery, perhaps even slightly nutty taste. Two weeks later I had one and was even more impressed. The draw was perfect. So far I have tried two out of each bundle and I like them. Highly recommended!

DeShaun Johnson co-founded ELinq after reflecting on his university experience and identifying unmet needs. "ELinq ensures that every student has a chance at success," Johnson explained. "It gives students tools and resources so they have the best knowledge, applications and resources to succeed in their educational endeavors."
Johnson and his team launched the venture in early 2016 and are honing the online platform as a private beta version now late in the year. "Our differentiator is that ELinq focuses on academic achievement and the collaborative interaction of students in the educational environment," he said. "We connect students in an environment that facilitates theirs discussions regarding education and their studies. We are making a consolidated environment for students, teachers and parents to share information on the same platform. ELinq pairs students together who are best situated to help each other. The platform also pairs students with community leaders and mentors who want to help. Another feature is an easy to use channel for students to reach out to teachers for assistance."
Johnson's advice to other entrepreneurs is that the entrepreneurial roller coaster is difficult, but passion for your venture eases the difficulties. "Do something you're deeply passionate about," he said. "Find something that touches you personally. For example, I could have benefited from ELinq as a student. Focus on helping the customer solve a problem. The reward of entrepreneurship isn't making millions. It's that you are building a business doing something you love and solving a problem you want to fix."

A toxic pink cocktail: social media and alcohol marketing
Editor: Melissa SweetAuthor: Ainslie Sartori, Hannah Pierce and Melissa Ledgeron: November 27, 2019 In: alcohol, Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD), health & medical marketing, Public health and population health, women's health
The alcohol industry in Australia is designing and promoting alcohol products specifically for women, according to a new report investigating how products are being marketed as pink, palatable and health-promoting.
Titled The 'Instagrammability' of pink drinks: How alcohol is marketed to women in Australia, the report is published by the Public Health Advocacy Institute of Western Australia, Cancer Council WA and the Alcohol Advertising Review Board. Link to the report
Public health advocates say the report will be submitted to a Senate inquiry into Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) as evidence of the need for increased controls on alcohol marketing, especially to young women.
Ainslie Sartori, Hannah Pierce and Melissa Ledger write:
The use of social media influencers to promote alcohol products is just one strategy employed by alcohol manufacturers to increase their market share of the historically untapped female alcohol market – and it is working.
The gap between men and women's alcohol use and levels of alcohol-related harm is reducing both globally and in Australia. While Australian females were 1.7 times as likely as males to have never consumed a full glass of alcohol in 2004, this had reduced to 1.2 times by 2016.
A new report by the Alcohol Programs Team at the Public Health Advocacy Institute of Western Australia (PHAIWA) and Cancer Council WA details how the development of products designed and marketed specifically for the female market is allowing alcohol companies to attract new consumers and increase their profits.
To identify industry tactics used to market alcohol to women in Australia, we searched twelve months' worth of industry trade publications for such references as 'female', 'woman', 'pink', and 'rose', and reviewed the quotes to identify key themes and strategies, with examples in the extract from the report below.
Pink and palatable
We then searched the Instagram and Facebook accounts of alcohol brands to locate examples of alcohol marketing that appeared to be aimed at women.
We found that products designed to appeal to women are often pink and palatable, use imagery that is highly likely to appeal to young women, and include health-related claims such as low sugar, low calorie, and natural ingredients.
These themes are consistent with those identified in previous research that has found the alcohol industry targets women through a number of strategies including the creation of new products, lifestyle messages underpinned by gender stereotypes, offers of stereotypical feminine accessories, and messages of empowerment.
Some of the Instagram and Facebook posts encouraged women to drink alcohol to wrap up the work week, enjoy a warm summer's evening, bring in the new year, at summer parties, the movies, long lunches, days spent with the girls…
Given the extent of gender-based marketing that's occurring, it should really be no surprise that the gap between men and women's alcohol use is shrinking.

The more alcohol is consumed by Australians, the more harm individuals, families, and our broader community experience.
Thirty per cent of Australian women consume alcohol at levels that place them at risk of short-term harm, and around one in 11 women consume more than two standard drinks per day on average, increasing the risk of alcohol-related harm over their lifetime.
This is a concern due not only to the health risks that can affect anybody who consumes alcohol, but also because of the harms experienced specifically by women, including some cancers such as breast cancer. Alcohol is a risk factor for cancer of the mouth, pharynx, larynx, oesophagus, bowel, and breast, and is known to cause cancer. The link between alcohol and breast cancer is convincing and it is estimated that alcohol consumption causes one in five of all new breast cancer cases.
Alcohol use during pregnancy is another serious concern, as it is the leading cause of preventable birth defects. We know that there are still a number of Australian women who drink alcohol while pregnant.
Reducing alcohol use during pregnancy will reduce the prevalence and severity of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), an entirely preventable but incurable condition caused by the baby's exposure to alcohol in the womb.
Alcohol advertising, like most other unhealthy commodity advertising in Australia, is subject to an industry funded and managed scheme; in this case the Alcohol Beverages Advertising Code (ABAC) Scheme.
The ABAC Scheme sets out standards for the content of alcohol marketing in the ABAC Responsible Alcohol Marketing Code. This code does not apply specific standards to alcohol advertising that appeals to women, and as our report highlights, there is evidence of the code failing to adequately address the themes used to target women.
We know that evidence-based policies that work to reduce alcohol consumption include strong restrictions on the content, placement, and volume of alcohol marketing.
Given the evidence indicating that alcohol marketing influences drinking behaviours, there is a strong rationale to address alcohol marketing targeted at women as part of a comprehensive approach to reducing consumption among women of child‐bearing age.
The Senate Community Affairs References Committee is currently holding an inquiry into effective approaches into the prevention and diagnosis of, and support for, FASD.
We will submit our report to the Committee and recommend the introduction of strong, independent controls on alcohol marketing (especially to young women).
FASD has severe and lifelong consequences for our children, families, and communities, and serious action on alcohol marketing is needed to help give our children the best possible start to life.

Naloxone is an opioid receptor antagonist that rapidly binds to opioid receptors, blocking heroin from activating them. An appropriate dose of naloxone acts in less than 2 minutes and completely eliminates all signs of opioid intoxication to reverse an opioid overdose.1 Between 1996 and 2014, naloxone reportedly reversed over 26,000 overdoses.2
Evzio and Narcan
Naloxone that can be used by nonmedical personnel has been shown to be cost-effective and save lives.
In April 2014, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a naloxone hand-held auto-injector called Evzio®, which rapidly delivers a single dose of naloxone into the muscle or under the skin, buying time until medical assistance can arrive.3
Narcan® is an FDA approved prescription nasal spray that is used to stop a person from overdosing on opioids. It is a nasal form of naloxone.
Both Evzio® and Narcan® can be used on both adults and children and can be administered by first responders, family members, or caregivers.
See: Step-by-step guide for using Narcan and doing rescue breathing on someone who has overdosed.
Finding Naloxone in Arizona
Through a standing order, naloxone is now available at pharmacies throughout the state without a prescription.
