Home Tech Gadgets Why OnePlus is launching the 5T only five months after OnePlus 5
Why OnePlus is launching the 5T only five months after OnePlus 5
"When we propelled the OnePlus 5, there was no arrangement to discharge the OnePlus 5T," Kyle Kiang, OnePlus' head of worldwide showcasing, disclosed to me seven days before the new telephone's splashy dispatch occasion in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
It's an impossible to miss affirmation, yet it fits impeccably with the Chinese startup's adage to "Never Settle." OnePlus' immovable mission to convey the most recent advancements as quickly as time permits not just stays up with the latest with the most recent portable patterns, yet puts the warmth on the Samsung's of the world to convey encounters that'll legitimize burning through $1,000 on another telephone.
Which is the reason OnePlus has earned such a great amount of acclaim for its current cell phones? Only four years of age, the Chinese upstart has discharged seven telephones, all to basic praise, while keeping costs immovably widely appealing.
A half year after its fundamentally fruitful the OnePlus 5, the organization is drawing out its next cycle, the OnePlus 5T and stopping its forerunner. It is an unassuming update, which keeps the £449 sticker price of the old model. OnePlus just ever showcases one telephone at any given moment, so with its old model now out of generation the OnePlus 5T is the main alternative for fanatics of the arrangement.
Following the 5T's dispatch occasion, I sat down with the organization's CEO Pete Lau and got his input on various subjects, and one of them was the reason they're turning out with a more up to date, better form of their officially superb lead so soon.
To plan and dispatch another telephone inside the traverse of five months is typically inconceivable.
There's a motivation behind why most telephone producers just dispatch a solitary lead (distinctive screen sizes, in any case) show each year: It takes a long time for innovative work.
However, OnePlus is unique.
Henceforth why the OnePlus 5T exists. It's intended to stay aware of portable patterns, to be specific greater screens with smaller bezels, confront opening, and better double cameras.
Both of these are highlighted Samsung and Apple have embraced for their own particular leader telephones this year. What's more, the organization has never been bashful to let it out's an adherent. For instance, when I flame broiled Kiang a year ago on how comparative the OnePlus 5 took after an iPhone 7 Plus (directly down to the also formed reception apparatus lines on the back), he let me know there are just such a significant number of approaches to influence unibody aluminum to telephone, what's more, it was the regular advancement of their gadgets.
The 5T is great OnePlus: It has every one of the things all the more outstanding and costly 2017 leader telephones have, yet costs half to such an extent.
In any case, why dispatch a telephone so rapidly and end generation for the OnePlus 5, a to a great degree generally welcomed telephone that many, including yours genuinely, very commended?
Since the production network's prepared, and when parts like bigger edge-to-edge screens and face open are sufficiently moderate to incorporate into a telephone they can even now offer at the esteem they need to, why hold up an entire year?
Pursuing the best item
This quick discharge cycle is incredible in case you're an early adopter and need the most recent and most prominent without holding up, yet it could rub steadfast clients who obtained the first non "T" form the wrong way. Ask yourself how you would feel in the event that you were saddled with what is presently basically an obsolete telephone under a half year after you got it, from a brand you need to be faithful to? It's not a positive sentiment.
Lau reveals to me the organization's aim isn't to botch its clients. This speed is exactly how the organization works and propelling new advancements when they're accessible for clients is all piece of the drive to construct the best item.
OnePlus 5 proprietors, as OnePlus 3 proprietors a year ago, may feel insulted by OnePlus' quick discharge cycle, yet they shouldn't. The telephone they purchased was the best OnePlus item right then and there. It's as yet an extraordinary telephone, however, like all things, the best is never the best until the end of time.
Innovation dependably shows signs of improvement. A few organizations hold up and a few organizations, as OnePlus, don't. On the off chance that you can't stomach the organization's speed — the organization could dispatch another telephone in an additional five months on the off chance that it felt prepared to — then perhaps you ought to consider different gadgets.
I've just tried the OnePlus 5T for seven days (we'll have a full survey in the coming days), however I would already be able to disclose to both of you things that are most likely obvious: 5T is the best telephone the organization's made and its next telephone, apparently the OnePlus 6, will presumably be shockingly better (accepting the organization doesn't botch things up).

Spanish auto maker SEAT plans to introduce a new concept car developed as a mobility platform at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona this month. The brand is putting the final touches on its premier of a vehicle that will make a difference in SEAT's urban micromobility strategy.
SEAT president Luca de Meo will unveil the concept car during a press conference scheduled for Monday, February 25.
In the framework of the 5G Barcelona project, which aims to promote Barcelona as one of the benchmark European capitals of 5G technology, SEAT and Telefónica are going to launch the 5G Connected Car pilot test. This initiative enables communication between the car, the surrounding infrastructure, and other cars as a first step toward collaborative, autonomous driving, according to SEAT.
Also present at the MWC will be the teams of XMOBA and Metropolis:Lab, two independent SEAT Group companies that are working on developing solutions to improve urban mobility.
Details will be given on the progress being made by the Bus On Demand project, which seeks to enhance the efficiency of public transport with a service that adapts to user needs—and the ride-sharing initiative, which connects users who normally drive to work and enables them to share the commute. Both solutions will be advancing to a second phase in 2019 and will be available in the city of Barcelona, reports SEAT.
SEAT is participating in 4 Years From Now (4YFN), the international technology event for entrepreneurs and start-ups, as part of MWC. The company aims to connect with the most innovative and disruptive talent attending the congress.
The Start4big project, the first cross-sectional, open digital initiative promoted by Aigües de Barcelona, Caixabank, Naturgy, SEAT, and Telefónica, is looking for well-established international start-ups to develop disruptive pilot programs aimed at enhancing customer experience.
According to its release, SEAT is the only company that designs, develops, manufactures, and markets cars in Spain. A member of the Volkswagen Group, the multinational has its headquarters in Barcelona and exports 80 percent of its vehicles and is present in over 80 countries on all five continents. In 2018, SEAT sold 517,600 cars.


Are 'Mobile Wallets' a Major Innovation or a Major Bore?
It's the future of money! So why aren't consumers more excited about it? Maybe because it's a solution to a problem we don't really have.
Everyone from Google to every major cell carrier in the US really, really wants consumers to start paying for things in stores with their mobile phones. And yet adoption of the technology in the US has been slow. Similar "mobile wallets" have been available in Japan since 2004, and yet by the end of 2010, in a typical month only 10% of Japanese consumers were using their phones to make a purchase.
So what's wrong with people? Don't they understand how completely magical it would be to just tap a cash register with their phones, rather than swiping a credit card or fishing out a wad of bills?
Just asking the question points to the answer: in rich countries, at least, the existing means of paying for things are already pretty great. And none of the competing mobile-wallet technologies has too much of an edge either over the old methods, or over each other.
One, near-field communications (NFC), lets a shopper tap a phone with an NFC chip in it against a receiver, to instantly beam the payment information. A second is the distinctive, square barcode-like symbol called a QR code; shoppers can pay by having a QR code flash up on their phone's screen where a camera attached to the payment system can read it. The third, known as "pay by name," is a system in the store that detects when a known mobile phone is in range, identifies the buyer, and displays his face on a screen, so that the person behind the register can simply tap the picture to complete the transaction.
The reason none of these is a clear winner, says Bill Ready, CEO of Braintree, which powers the credit-card handling portion of various websites, "is that mobile doesn't solve a huge pain point for either the consumer or the merchant on in store payments."
In other words, none of these methods makes life that much easier. It's true that mobile wallets could allow for all kinds of new features, from helping shoppers keep track of their spending to giving retailers new ways to reward loyal customers; but technologies tend to catch on fast only when they solve a pressing problem. Those that merely make life a bit better take time for people to adopt.
Contrast the situation of paying in stores with that of handling credit-card transactions online. It's famously annoying for websites, which have to get a merchant account from a bank, then integrate their systems with those of payment processors, which aren't renowned for their ease of use. Braintree and its competitor Stripe--which as we've written is, literally, obscenely popular with website developers--have made this process even easier than industry leader PayPal has. (According to Ready, Braintree already powers payments for 30 million users, as against PayPal's 113 million.) But customers haven't been nearly as quick to adopt things like Google Wallet, precisely because mobile wallets aren't an answer to a problem that they had in the first place.

Q: How To properly loop through array in the middle of another loop? This is the current output
Note:
1) the pink fenced portion repeats twice
2) The values for the pink fence, should break into new

This is the script that doing all the above:
var new_array = {};
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
  new_array[i] = ({

      "

"
  $("#print_receipt").append(_html4);
}

A: EDIT (I missunderstood the problem this was the answer):
You are creating a table, and then, after the table, a tbody. HTML creates a tbody once you create a table, so what happens is:
1- you create the table
2- inside the table, html creates a tbody
3- you open a tbody after the table. This results in having 2 tbody elements. So jquery finds both and inserts the same content in each.
Refer to line 46 in the fiddle (where you are opening the tbody, just remove the tag).
I made a fiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/LgtmLtux/2/
var new_array = {};
var data =
[
  {
        'catalog_name':"Tea",
        'price':25,
        'qty':8,
        'grand':108
    },
  {
        'catalog_name':"Tea",
        'price':25,
        'qty':8,
        'grand':108
    },
  {
        'catalog_name':"Tea",
        'price':25,
        'qty':8,
        'grand':108
    },
  {
        'catalog_name':"Tea",
        'price':25,
        'qty':8,
        'grand':108
    },
];
for(var i=0;i < data.length; i++)
{
    new_array[i] =
    {
        'catalog_name':data[i].catalog_name,
      'price':data[i].price,
      'qty':data[i].qty,
      'amt':data[i].grand
     };
     //Creating tables for each element in 'data'
    $("#print_receipt").prepend(
    "

POS
Merchant id: "+
    data[i].mem_id+
    "
Merchant Name :"+
    data[i].mem_name+
    "
Transaction Id :"+
    data[i].trans_id+
    "

"
  );
}
console.log(new_array);
$("#print_receipt tbody").append( "

Item Name	Unit Price	Qty	Amount

");

$.each(new_array, function(index, value){

    //Adding elements on each table created
  $("#print_receipt tbody").append(
    "

"+
    value.catalog_name+
    "	"+
    value.price+
    "	"+
    value.qty+
    "	"+
    value.amt+
    "

"
  );
});

for(var j=0;j < data.length; j++)
{
    $("#print_receipt").append(
        "

TOTAL	"+
    data[j].grand+
    "

CASH	"+
    data[j].cash+
    "

CHANGE	"+
    data[j].change+
    "

Customer Info
Member Id: "+
    data[j].cust_id+
    "
Name: "+
    data[j].cust_name+
    "
<input type='button' id='print_now' onClick = 'window.print()' value='PRINT RECEIPT'/>

");
}

Other than that:
-Pay attention to your coding style, which is difficult to read. In the fiddle linked you'll see how I would write it to read it easier.
-Don't make tables for non-tabular information (arguably, the information before and after the tables is non-tabular (not inside a table at least))
-Make only one table, try not to make tables inside tables

A: @Keren for templating use templating engines like handlebars. or some other libraries.that will make your code more readable and can be easily debuggable.
avoid templating in jquery.handlebars templats will show anyone what you are trying to do.if you do templating by using jquery that will make your code less readable.
and also templating should not happen inside script.script's should be separate and templates should be separate.that will make your code testable

The normal level of the Moray Firth at Kingston Tide Gauge in average weather conditions is between 0.68m and 2.40m. It has been between these levels for at least 150 days in the past year.
The usual range of the Moray Firth at Kingston Tide Gauge in more extreme weather conditions is between 0.86m and 2.61m. It has been between these levels for 90% of the time since monitoring began.
The highest level ever recorded at the Moray Firth at Kingston Tide Gauge is 2.96m, reached on Monday 11th August 2014 at 12:45pm.


It is recommended that the value of `status_pdaf` is checked in the program after PDAF_init is executed. Only if its value is 0 the initialization was successful.
The routine `PDAF_init` call the user-supplied routine `init_ens_pdaf`. The interface of `init_ens_pdaf` is described on the [InitPdaf#User-suppliedroutineU_init_ens_pdaf page on PDAF_init with full interface].
The routine `PDAF_init` call the user-supplied routine `init_ens_pdaf`. The interface of `init_ens_pdaf` is described on the [#User-suppliedroutineU_init_ensinit_ens_pdaf.F90 page on PDAF_init with full interface].
The routine `PDAF_get_state_si` has the purpose to initialize the information, whether further model integrations have to be computed and how many time steps have to be performed. In addition, the model fields to be propagated are initialized from the array holding the ensemble states.
* `timenow`: A real specifying upon exit the current model time.
* `doexit`: An integer variable defining whether the assimilation process is completed and the program should exit the while loop. For compatibility 1 should be used for exit, 0 for continuing in the loop.
* `status`: The integer status flag. It is zero, if `PDAF_get_state` is exited without errors.
The interfaces of these routines are described on the [#U_next_observationnext_observation_pdaf.F90 page on the implementation with the full interface].
There is a separate routine `PDAF_put_state_X_si` for each of the filter algorithms. The name of the routine includes the name of the filter (instead of `X`). The purpose of the `PDAF_put_state_X_si` routines is to write back the forecast model fields into the array holding the ensemble of model state vectors. In addition, the routine checks if the current forecast phase is completed. If not, the routine is exited and the next cycle of the ensemble loop is performed. If the current forecast phase is completed, the routine executes the analysis step of the chosen filter algorithm. Each filter algorithm has its own put-state routine, because the distinct names of several user-supplied routines. The different names do not appear in the simplified interrfaces but are defined internally to PDAF. At the stage of implementing the ensemble integration only the first and last arguments of the routines are relevant.
* `status`: The integer status flag. It is zero, if PDAF_get_state is exited without errors.
The interface of this routine is described on the page on [ModifyModelforEnsembleIntegration#U_collect_statecollect_state.F90 implementing the ensemble integration with the full interface].
The other arguments are names of user-supplied subroutines that are only executed if the analysis step is executed (See the section [#Compilationandtesting 'Compilation and testing'] for how to provide these routines for compilation at this stage). These routines are explained in the section of the implementation guide on ([ImplementationofAnalysisStep Implementation of the Analysis step]) separately for each available filter algorithm.

San Cristóbal Ecatepec de Morelos, známé též jako Ecatepec, je město v Mexiku, ve státě México. Leží v těsné blízkosti Ciudad de México a je tak považováno za jeho "satelit", je s ním dokonce spojeno linkou metra (linka B). Je však samostatným městem, druhým největším v Mexiku: k roku 2010 mělo 1 658 806 obyvatel. Spolu s Ciudad de Mexico a dalšími sídly tak vytváří více než dvacetimilionovou metropolitní oblast Valle de México.

Ecatepec je původní název pocházející z indiánského jazyka Nahuatl, San Cristóbal je patron města, přídomek de Morelos město přijalo na počest hrdiny mexické války o nezávislost José Maríi Morela, který byl ve Ecatepecu popraven roku 1815 Španěly. V domě, kde byl zabit, je dnes muzem (Museo Casa de Morelos). K turistickým lákadlům patří především nejmladší katedrála v Mexiku, Sagrado Corazón de Jesús.

Ve městě má sídlo společnost Jumex, která vyrábí ovocné šťávy, jež jsou velmi populární v Jižní Americe a mezi hispánskými obyvateli USA.

Q: Hide all WPF UserControls from Assembly in Toolbox I want to hide all written WPF UserControls from several Assemblies in my project inside the Visual Studio Toolbox. I know I can flag the UserControls with the [DesignTimeVisible(false)] attribute to hide each individual control.
Is there another solution to hide all of them with one attribute on the Assembly? I don't want to flag each new Control. Sadly the attribute is not inherited from its parent so I even cannot create a basecontrol with the DesignTimeVisible(false).
Any Ideas?

A: As the first preference, such controls can be internal if they should be used visible in the container project. You can make them public based on requirements. Also being internal, they can be used in friend assemblies as well.
Anyway to reduce the difficulty of turning on/off of DesignTimeVisible is what you are looking for, you can consider these options:
Option 1
As an option, you can decrease the difficulty of turning on/off the DesignTimeVisible attribute. You can decorate all classes just once with DesignTimeVisible but control its value from a central point.
To do so, create a class to hold setting:
public class MyGlobalSettings
{
    public const bool DesignTimeVisible = false;
}

Then decorate controls this way:
[DesignTimeVisible(MyGlobalSettings.DesignTimeVisible)]
public partial class UserControl1 : UserControl

Then to turn on/off showing controls in toolbox, it's enough to set DesignTimeVisible. This way, it's just a single point setting.
Option 2
An another option you can use a T4 Template to generate partial classes for your controls. In the file you can have a variable which will be used as value of DesignTimeVisible attribute. Then in the T4 template, decorate all partial classes with DesignTimeVisible having specified value. You can simply change the value in a single point.
Class names can be generated automatically using code, but in this example I used static class names:
<#@ template debug="false" hostspecific="false" language="C#" #>
<#@ assembly name="System.Core" #>
<#@ import namespace="System.Linq" #>
<#@ import namespace="System.Text" #>
<#@ import namespace="System.Collections.Generic" #>
<#@ output extension=".cs" #>
<#  var designTimeVisibleValue = "false"; #>
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.ComponentModel;
namespace WpfCustomControlLibrary1
{
    [DesignTimeVisible(<#=designTimeVisibleValue#>)]
    public partial class UserControl1 : UserControl{}

    [DesignTimeVisible(<#=designTimeVisibleValue#>)]
    public partial class UserControl2 : UserControl{}
}

Note
Also as mentioned in comments, you can use tools like Fody, PostSharp, dIHook,... to modify assembly at build time. Using these libraries just for such requirement is too much. Such tools can have lots of benefits but using them just for such requirement is too much and not a good idea.

A: Maybe I am late, but if:

*

*Your controls assembly is not register in the GAC

*Your controls assembly's project is not in the solution you are working in

then you can use WPF Designer Extensibility. Practically you can extend the visual studio WPF designer by using attributes.
The attribute that we need is ToolboxBrowsableAttribute. The more important feature of this framework is that it allows to define attributes for our controls in a separate assembly (called design assembly).
So let's suppose these are our custom controls:
namespace CustomControls
{
    public class CustomTextBox : TextBox
    {
    }

    public class CustomButton : Button
    {
    }

    public class CustomComboBox : ComboBox
    {
    }
}

The custom controls are in an assembly named CustomControls.dll; for adding the attribute we need to each control, a new assembly called CustomControls.Design.dll should be created. This new assembly has to reference:

*

*PresentationCore

*PresentationFramework

*System.Xaml

*WindowsBase

*Microsoft.Windows.Design.Extensibility

*Microsoft.Windows.Design.Interaction

In the AssemblyInfo add this line of code:
[assembly: ProvideMetadata(typeof(CustomControls.Design.Metadata))]

That attribute points out which class will provide attribute for the designer.
So let's see the code of Metadata class:
namespace CustomControls.Design
{
    public class Metadata : IProvideAttributeTable
    {
        AttributeTable IProvideAttributeTable.AttributeTable
        {
            get
            {
                AttributeTableBuilder builder = new AttributeTableBuilder();
                Assembly assembly = Assembly.GetAssembly(typeof(CustomControls.CustomButton));

                foreach (Type objectType in assembly.GetTypes())
                {
                    if (objectType.IsPublic && typeof(FrameworkElement).IsAssignableFrom(objectType))
                    {
                        builder.AddCustomAttributes(objectType,
                            ToolboxBrowsableAttribute.No);
                    }
                }

                return builder.CreateTable();
            }
        }
    }
}

In this way I am adding the ToolboxBrowsable attribute to each public object of the CustomControl assembly which extends the FrameworkElement class, without the need of decorating each control one by one.
CustomControls.Design.dll must be in the same folder of CustomControls.dll.
You can find useful info here (even that code regards a slightly different argument).
Pay attetion: if condition 1 and condition 2 are not both met, this method does not work and probabily the Reza Aghaei's solution is more suitable.
I hope it can help.

New advances in technology almost always give birth to new marketing approaches. There's one particular innovation that's been helping businesses bring down costs while providing a way to promote their products and services like never before: digital signage. Today, the marketing agency team at HardyHarris wants to show you a few reasons why you should include this type of display into your current promotional plans.
For starters, opting for digital signage over traditional models is a great way for your business to go green. You'll have almost unlimited versatility in how you market your business without having to waste materials every time you change a promotion.
No business wants to pass up any opportunity to improve revenue. A digital sign can do exactly that.

Serena takes 5th U.S. Open, 17th slam
NEW YORK (AP) — Serena Williams' big lead in the U.S. Open final suddenly was gone. Her serve was shaky. Her hard-hitting opponent, Victoria Azarenka, was presenting problems and so was the gusting wind. A couple of foot-fault calls added to the angst.
As a jittery Williams headed to the sideline after dropping a set for the first time in the tournament, she chucked her racket, which ricocheted onto the court.
When play resumed, in the crucible of a third set, Williams put aside everything and did what she does best: She came through in the clutch to win a major match. Facing her only test of the past two weeks, the No. 1-seeded Williams overcame No. 2 Azarenka 7-5, 6-7 (6), 6-1 on Sunday for her 17th Grand Slam championship.
"When you're always trying to write history, or join history, in my case, maybe you just get a little more nervous than you should. I also think it's kind of cool, because it means that it means a lot to you. It means a lot to me, this trophy," Williams said, pointing her right hand at her fifth silver cup from the U.S. Open, "and every single trophy that I have."
That collection keeps growing.
Williams has won twice in a row at Flushing Meadows — beating Azarenka in three sets each time — and four of the past six major tournaments overall. Her 17 titles are the sixth most in history for a woman, only one behind Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert, and the same total as the men's record-holder, Roger Federer.
"It feels really good to be in that same league as him," said Williams, who earned $3.6 million in prize money.
This one did not come easily, even though it appeared to be nearly over when Williams went ahead by two breaks at 4-1 in the second set. She served for the match at 5-4 and 6-5 — only to have the gutsy Azarenka, a two-time Australian Open winner, break each time.
Williams is 67-4 with a career-high nine titles in 2013, but two of those losses came against Azarenka.A year ago, they played the first three-set women's final in New York since 1995. This time, they went the distance again, a total of 2 hours, 45 minutes, because Azarenka was superior in the tiebreaker.
"I got a little uptight, which probably wasn't the best thing at that moment," Williams said. "I wasn't playing very smart tennis then, so I just had to relax and not do that again."
So, after the second set, Williams gave herself a pep talk.
She regrouped and regained control.
"In the third set, Serena really found a way to calm down and restart from zero and quickly erase what happened," said her coach, Patrick Mouratoglou.
Azarenka helped a bit, with two of her seven double-faults coming when she got broken to trail 3-1 in the third. That pretty much sealed it, because Williams was not about to falter again.
"She's a champion and she knows how to repeat that. She knows what it takes to get there. I know that feeling, too. And when two people who want that feeling so bad meet, it's like a clash," Azarenka said, pounding her fists together.At the outset, though, the 15 mph wind that swirled in Arthur Ashe Stadium bothered Williams as much as Azarenka did."It wasn't pleasant," Azarenka said. Williams caught service tosses. She grabbed at her skirt to keep it from flying up. Most troubling, she was thrown off by balls that danced oddly. Six of the first 16 points ended with unforced errors by Williams, which allowed Azarenka to go ahead 2-1.
Looking hesitant at times, Williams did not show the same dominance she had while dropping only 16 games during six victories through the semifinals.
"The wind was unbelievable today," Williams said. "It just got worse and worse. It just never let up." She needed to adjust, and she did.
Williams became the first woman to surpass $9 million in prize money in a single season, while topping $50 million for her career.
She also equaled Steffi Graf with five U.S. Open titles, one behind Evert's record of six in the Open era, which began in 1968. Williams never had won two consecutive U.S. Opens, but now she has, adding to the trophies she earned in New York in 1999 — at age 17 — then 2002 and 2008.
Those go alongside five from Wimbledon, five from the Australian Open, and two from the French Open, which she won this year.
"Being older, it's always awesome and such a great honor, because I don't know if I'll ever win another Grand Slam. Obviously, I hope so," said Williams, who turns 32 on Sept. 26. "It's different now, because, when I won earlier, it was just one or two or three or four. Now it's like 16, 17. It has more meaning [for] history, as opposed to just winning a few."

Agatha Christie's Poirot - Music from the TV Series
Christopher Gunning
Discovery Music & Vision (DMV103)
Sorry, this product is not currently available for sale.
Christopher Gunning composed the iconic theme music for "Agatha Christie's Poirot" and the incidental music for series 1, and 3-9. This CD contains music from series 1, plus two sections from "five Little Pigs" and one long section from "Death on the Nile," both of which are from series 9. There are 15 tracks in total, with a combined running time of over 70 minutes.
Because special music was composed for each film, there is a huge variety of music to be found on the album, ranging from pastoral (A Country Retreat and To the Lakes) through high tension (The ABC Murders, The Death of Mrs Inglethorpe, and part of Death on the Nile) to ethnic (the middle section of Death on the Nile.) Nursery Rhymes are elaborated upon in How Does Your Garden Grow and One Two Buckle My Shoe, and Poirot's own theme appears now and then, with his own "thinking" theme featured in Grey Cells. Several of the tracks were originally included on the Virgin CD from 20 years ago, but the music fromDeath on the Nile and Five Little Pigs has never appeared before.
"For any music lover who follows the Poirot series with David Suchet this disc should be a must. Perhaps the whole disc in one listening may perhaps be a little too much - but not for me - the music is lovely and memorable. There is surprising variety and the performance is superb as is the sound. And it is fun."

In some places, the Civil War isn't over … or even called that
TOM STILL
Wisconsin Technology Council
COLUMBIA, S.C. – On the state capitol grounds in this Southern state stands a statue that should be far more offensive in the early 21st century than anything erected in honor of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.
It's a monument to Benjamin Tillman, a former governor and U.S. senator from South Carolina who was known as "Pitchfork Ben" due to his racist views, support for Jim Crow laws and wink-and-nod tolerance of lynch mobs.
Tillman was also a populist, was described as South Carolina's "first New Dealer" by his supporters and helped create Clemson University — which is no small reason why his statue still stands.
Down the road in Charleston, a monument in honor of John C. Calhoun towers over Marion Square. There was no greater defender of slavery in his time than Calhoun, who once described the immoral practice as a "positive good" for owners and slaves alike.
Because of his other legacies, however, Calhoun was historically significant. In fact, he was named in 1957 as one of the five greatest U.S. senators of all time by a Senate committee headed by future President John F. Kennedy.
History is complicated, as the nation is rediscovering in the wake of deadly events incited by white supremacists who descended on Charlottesville, Va. People who by today's standards are racists or worse were heroes in their day, respected by contemporaries who often shared their misguided beliefs.
It's a pretty easy call to remove a Confederate memorial in Madison, where the only Southern soldiers were prisoners of war at Camp Randall, but quite another to remove monuments in parts of the country where history intersects with family and community memories.
Such is the case in South Carolina, where museums such as Charleston's Old Slave Mart stand in stark contrast to monuments that preserve the memory of what many Southerners still call the "War Between the States." It's a reminder that history is a story told from many angles, some accurate and others not, in the hope that an unvarnished and often inconvenient truth emerges over time.
During a visit to South Carolina in the days following the Charlottesville tragedy, I encountered two peaceful but nonetheless contrasting street events. In both cases, white supremacists had picked public places to advance their views and were met by those who wanted no part of the hatred.
The clash of history with present is not just an American phenomenon. In the United Kingdom, for example, statues to Cecil Rhodes and Edward Colston have come under fire for their ties to Britain's imperial and slave-trading past. One solution offered across the Atlantic is to keep such statues but to add plaques that give a fuller account of history.
It's anyone's guess how South Carolinians will resolve their conflicted history — after all, the state only recently removed a Confederate flag from its capitol — but the debate may prove more constructive than not.
If a state that led the secessionist charge in 1860 and repressed African-Americans for a century thereafter can change, so can others.
That change would best come about through a debate that doesn't fall into a trap extremists often set: Banning symbols the extremists hijack, driving those symbols underground and making them marble or cloth martyrs for a false cause.
History must be taught to successive generations; it is not genetically transmitted. Dispelling hatred among the few requires resolve and education by the many. In the absence of national leadership to the contrary, that responsibility falls, more than ever, to those who set examples that resonate close to home.
Tom Still is president of the Wisconsin Technology Council.

Sermon on Chapter 13
The Story – Chapter 13: The King Who Had It All (Solomon)
David's son Solomon becomes king after David dies. Solomon is known for building the glorious temple in Jerusalem and for his wisdom, a gift from God. Just as many of the psalms are attributed to David, the biblical books of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Song of Solomon are attributed to Solomon. If you don't have The Story book, you can read 1 Kings 1-8, 10-11; 2 Chronicles 5-7; and Proverbs 1-3, 6, 20-21
Summary of Chapter 12 – The King Who Had It All
God used King David's skills as a mighty warrior to lead Israel successfully against her enemies. For forty years David led the nation and established her firmly in the Promised Land. Upon the death of David, his son Solomon succeeds him as king.
Solomon's reign began with a series of defining events. He married the daughter of the Egyptian Pharaoh, and ironically, the nation that had once enslaved Israel now sought the good graces of God's people. Then God appeared to Solomon in a dream and offered to grant his heart's desire. Solomon asked for wisdom to lead, and God was pleased to grant this request and gave him wealth and honor as well. Solomon's keen wisdom became the hallmark of his reign, and people from around the world sought him out. Solomon demonstrated that the cornerstone of all wisdom is a holy fear of God.
During Solomon's reign, peace prevailed in the Promised Land. The time had come to build a temple for God. The construction project was massive and followed the pattern of the tabernacle that had been used since the days of Moses. The end result was as majestic as one could imagine. Solomon humbly realized that even a magnificent temple could not sufficiently contain God; however, the temple would become the enduring focal point of worship and life for God's people.
King Solomon experienced phenomenal success. His wealth and wisdom were legendary. His reign was marked by peace and prosperity. But Solomon also married hundreds of women, many of them foreigners, and we are told that his foreign wives "turned his heart after other gods."
Solomon's story began with great promise, incomparable wisdom and magnificent achievement. However, his closing chapter reveals that the kingdom would be torn in two, and Solomon spent his last days fighting off enemies and rebels. His splendor and his legacy were tarnished by disobedience and idolatry.
As you read, remember there are discussion questions for each chapter beginning on page 473 of the book and also questions that can be found on The Story bookmark (which is also on our website). Also, feel free to consider some of the questions below:
God gave Solomon an incredible opportunity to ask for anything he wished. (See 1 Kings 3:5 where God says, "Ask for whatever you want me to give you.") What would you ask for if God gave you such an opportunity? Why?
Solomon asked God to give him a wise, discerning, understanding heart. (The Story, page 177) What does this mean? What would a heart like this look like in your life? How would it impact you with your family and friends? How about at work? What would it have to do with the way you spend your money or your time?
God not only gave Solomon what he did ask for, he also gave him what he didn't ask for. Why do you think this was so? What does this say about the nature of God as a giver? Has God ever given anything to you that you didn't ask for? Why do you think this happened?
Proverbs often explain the benefits of living God's way and the hazards of not doing so. Pages 179-183 include excerpts from the biblical book of Proverbs, attributed to Solomon. As you read these wisdom sayings, what sayings stand out or really resonate with you? Why? How can you put these into practice in your life? Are there any you disagree with? Why?
Certainly God is bigger than any building could ever contain. Solomon recognized this, yet the temple Solomon constructed would become a special place where God's people could meet with Him. Do you have a special place that you meet with God? Why is this special place important to you?
Although Scripture is not specific, one has to wonder — exactly where did it all go wrong for Solomon? What was that crucial moment when Solomon started down the wrong path? Could Solomon have done anything to avoid it? Have you run into one of those crucial moments in your own life when it appears that a decision could have long-term consequences for your relationship with God? What happened?
God had been and still is searching for people whose hearts would be fully His. Solomon was loyal for a long time, near the end of this life he wandered from God. We are all tempted to wander. What is it that causes your heart to wander from God? What has the potential of pulling you away from following God? What can you do to keep that from happening?
What questions came up for you while you were reading this chapter?

Paul Manafort: Multiple sentences overview
March 20, 2019 by elliotwallarticles Leave a Comment

Paul Manafort, Donald Trump's campaign manager and consultant, has been officially charged with multiple counts of tax and bank fraud. Manafort worked as a Republican party campaign consultant, and joined Donald Trump's campaign team in 2016 (he was the campaign chairman from June to August 2016).
Manafort was officially convicted in August 2018, on eight charges (all of which relates to tax and bank fraud) in the Eastern District of Virginia. He was also charged on ten other counts, but the judge declared a mistrial.
Later, in the DC District Court, Manafort pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy to defraud the United States. He also pleaded guilty to witness tampering.
On November 26, 2018, Robert Mueller released a statement saying that Manafort violated his plea deal by lying to investigators. In the DC District Court, Judge Amy Berman Jackson officially voided the plea deal, so Mueller advised the Virginia court to charge Manafort and have him serve 19 and a half years to 24 years in prison.
On March 7, 2019, Judge T.S. Ellis called Mueller's sentencing guideline "excessive," and sentenced Manafort to only 47 months in prison. Six days later, Judge Amy Berman Jackson sentenced Manafort to an additional 43 months in prison.
Only minutes after this sentencing, New York state prosecutors charged Manafort with sixteen state felonies. This will almost double his sentence, making him serve 7 ½ years instead of 47 months.
What was happening with Captain Marvel?
March 20, 2019 by teah Leave a Comment
Image taken from: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4154664/
Captain Marvel was released on March 8th, but there was a whole mess of events regarding the movie before that.
Captain Marvel has a female lead superhero which, despite it not being a big deal, caused a huge controversy.
Brie Larson, who plays Captain Marvel in the film, brought up feminist issues. This caused a lot of anti-feminist people to go against the film because it is "feminist propaganda." Captain Marvel did not get good reviews on Rotten Tomatoes before its release, and in turn Rotten Tomatoes disabled the feature to rate movies before its release.
The bad reviews also caused a small Twitter drama. A lot of people would complain about how only white men would review the movie as bad, and this caused some female critics to wonder if that makes their criticism worthless as they also didn't like the movie.
Some people complained about the music. The movie would use pop music which would remind people about Guardians of the Galaxy, but the complaints came from the fact that the latter movie was more fitting for that type of music as it had a personal connection to the main character.
Overall, it was a generic superhero movie. It was less of the movie itself that caused so much drama, but rather the events and interviews that took place before it's release.
It's a shame that the movie had so much pre-release drama, but just like all other internet drama, it will all blow over soon. At least now we're all just waiting for Endgame together.

Youth Climate Strike
March 20, 2019 by deitychildren Leave a Comment
By: Vivian S
Image taken from: https://grist.org/article/across-the-globe-students-go-on-strike-to-demand-climate-action/
The Youth Climate Strike, which happened on Friday, March 15th, was when, in over 40 countries, including the US, students walked out of school to raise awareness and fight against climate change.
The movement was inspired by Greta Thunberg, who protested outside the Swedish parliament and delivered a speech to the United Nations Climate Summit, and the short amount of time science says we have to fix our climate.
We have very few years left to transform our energy system and reduce greenhouse gasses until the damage is permanent. The website for the Youth Climate Strike US, https://www.youthclimatestrikeus.org/platform, says they are striking because world leaders have yet to acknowledge or prioritize this issue. They hope that by disrupting the normal flow of things, by not attending school, they can force governments to deal with climate change.
The strike was to demand that: The Green New Deal be put into effect, that there are no more new fossil fuel infrastructures, that the government make decisions based on the newest scientific evidence, that a national emergency be declared about climate change, that there is a comprehensive education on climate change for K-8, that wildlife is preserved, and that water remains clean.
The solutions they propose are: reforestation, the reduction of food waste, to make goals and benchmarks for the reduction of greenhouse gasses, to change the agriculture industry, to use more renewable energy, to stop fracking, and to stop mountaintop removal and mining.
We can only wait and see if this protest had any effect on the policies governments sign into laws, or if there will be any more strikes. But know this, I think these students will be heard, I don't think this is the last we'll hear of them.

Winterreise staged involves the senses in the experience of Schubert's Lied masterpiece. Ebbe Knudsen's direction, along with backdrops illustrated by Jörn Kaspuhl, builds a visual world in which one of musical history's greatest works can unfold. As baritone Johannes Held and pianist Daniel Beskow create the musical landscape, the observer witnesses the wanderer's world; we experience the snow, encounter the linden tree, follow the crow, and feel the loneliness of an empty train station. In accompanying the young man who lost his love, and seeing the elements that effect him, the viewer becomes a part of his cold world.

Nairo Quintana was the only general classification contender that attempted to follow, but even the Colombian is over three minutes off the Team Sky rider at the head of the race.
Seven-time Grand Tour winner Alberto Contador appears to be feeling the affects of his Giro d'Italia win, while defending champion Vincenzo Nibali has almost fallen out of contention altogether, showing little form in the mountains. Halfway through the Tour, and it appears nothing short of disaster can stop Froome from wearing yellow in Paris.

Q: asp.net mvc 4.0 ajax, duplicated content Ok, so, first of all i am new to asp.net mvc and ajax. What i am trying to do, is really simple;
I have a table, displaying a list of events that a logged in user can attend. each element in the list, has a ajax.BeginForm() that points to an action that will connect the user to the event.
When the user is connected with the event, the page should update, so that the number of attendants is displayed properly on the page.
All, this is working properly. But, what is happening when the page is updated, is that the entire content of my _Layout.cshtml page is duplicated inside a copy of the 'div id="tableevent"' that i have specified in "UpdateTargetId" to be updated.
Snippet from the view

//I DISPLAY TABLE ITEMS HERE.

           @using (Ajax.BeginForm("AddAttendantToEvent", "MadklubEvents", new AjaxOptions()
                    {
                        HttpMethod = "post",
                        UpdateTargetId = "tableevents"
                    }))
                    {
                        @Html.Hidden("EventID", item.MadklubEventID);
                        <input type="submit" value="Join!" id="join" class="btn" />
                    }

AddAttendantToEvent Action This is possibly where i have gone wrong.. i used to just post data to this action, through a normal submit form, no ajax. I have not changed anything in this action.
[HttpPost]
[Authorize]
public ActionResult AddAttendantToEvent(int EventID)
{

    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {
        var uow = new RsvpUnitofWork();

        var currentUser = WebSecurity.CurrentUserName;
        var Event = uow.EventRepo.Find(EventID);
        var user = uow.UserRepo.All.SingleOrDefault(u => u.Profile.UserName.Equals(currentUser));
        user.Events.Add(Event);
        Event.Attendants.Add(user);
        uow.Save();
        return RedirectToAction("Index");
    }

    {
        return View();
    }

}

Index The action that is redirected to: This is where the viewmodel, that contains the data, that my table is populated with, is initiated.
public ViewResult Index()
{
    ViewModelTest viewmodel = new ViewModelTest();
    viewmodel.events = madklubeventRepository.AllIncluding(madklubevent => madklubevent.Attendants).Take(10);
    viewmodel.users = kitchenuserRepository.All;

    return View(viewmodel);
}

Why is the div getting copied, and why is the entire content of my main _Layout page, getting duplicated inside the copy of the  tag?
Please point me in the right direction! :)

A: You should return a PartialView that contains only the HTML that you want to display in your div.
  [HttpPost]
    [Authorize]
    public ActionResult AddAttendantToEvent(int EventID)
    {

        if (ModelState.IsValid)
        {
            var uow = new RsvpUnitofWork();

            var currentUser = WebSecurity.CurrentUserName;
            var Event = uow.EventRepo.Find(EventID);
            var user = uow.UserRepo.All.SingleOrDefault(u => u.Profile.UserName.Equals(currentUser));
            user.Events.Add(Event);
            Event.Attendants.Add(user);
            uow.Save();
            ViewModelTest viewmodel = new ViewModelTest();
            viewmodel.events = madklubeventRepository.AllIncluding(madklubevent =>  madklubevent.Attendants).Take(10);
    viewmodel.users = kitchenuserRepository.All;

            return PartialView("_Events", viewmodel)

        }

        {
            return View();
        }

    }

NATIONAL MANGO BOARD (NMB) MEMBERS MISSING FROM PRODUCE TRACEABILITY INITIATIVE (PTI) ..
How can the National Mango Board ever be expected to be taken seriously on Food Safety ?
After the 2012 Daniella Mango recall Fiasco and the inept action plan by both Splendid Products and the National Mango Board, the NMB promised to put Food Safety first.
Here we are almost six months later, and not a single Board Member has stepped up to the plate.
The most important produce industry initiative, The Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) is sadly lacking major mango importer support.
Here are the proactive industry leaders who understand how importatnt PTI is ... LOOK AT THE COMPANY NAMES ...ALL THE MAJOR RETAILERS "GET IT"...TIME FOR THE MANGO INDUSTRY TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY ...if the NMB ever hopes to have any credibility.
PTI is supported by the volunteer work of dozens of companies that hail from across the fresh produce supply chain, from farm to store to table.
Kingston & Associates Marketing LLC, based in Idaho Falls, ID, announced the expansion of its Peruvian mango import program for the 2013 season, noting a 60 percent increase in production over last year's campaign.
The move comes after a very successful Ecuador program where the company experienced strong sales and good customer acceptance of the "Kingston" branded fruit.
While Kingston has been developing its mango program with grower partners in Central America and South America for some time, this year's Ecuadorian program was the introduction of "Kingston" branded mango boxes.

El uso de luz ultravioleta (UV) está bien establecido para el tratamiento de agua, desinfección del aire, y descontaminación de superficies, sin embargo su uso es limitado aún en el tratamiento de alimentos, y en particular en productos frescos como tecnología pos-cosecha.
Se ha demostrado la capacidad de la luz UV para desinfectar y retrasar el crecimiento microbiano en la superficie de los productos recién cortados sin alterar su calidad, esta luz puede ser más eficaz que el cloro, el peróxido de hidrógeno u ozono, en la reducción del crecimiento microbiano, haciendo que se extienda el tiempo de vida útil, según estudios recientes.
En general, las longitudes de onda de luz UV son de 100 a 400 nm, que se puede subdividir en UV-A (315-400 nm), UV-B (280-315 nm) y UV-C (200-280 nm).
North American industry experts on traceability and food safety regulations will speak Jan. 22 in Lima, Peru, at an event organized by Peru's export and tourism promotion board (PromPeru).
Peruvian exporters will hear Ed Treacy, vice president of supply chain efficiencies at the Newark, Del.-based Produce Marketing Association speak about the components of the Produce Traceability Initiative and review implementation dates with exporters.
Food export industry leaders will gather in order to learn what is new in issues such as food safety and traceability of fresh fruits and veegetables.
Meanwhile, Dan Vache, vice president of supply chain management for the Washington, D.C.-based United Fresh Produce Association will give a presentation focusing on the benefits of traceability through the supply chain.
A panel discussion and networking session will allow attendees to ask questions about traceability and food safety issues.
The biggest players in the food industry—from pesticide pushers to fertilizer makers to food processors and manufacturers—spend billions of dollars every year not selling food, but selling the idea that we need their products to feed the world.
But, do we really need industrial agriculture to feed the world?
Can sustainably grown food deliver the quantity and quality we need—today and in the future?
Our first Food MythBusters film takes on these questions in under seven minutes. So next time you hear them, you can too.
Kingston & Associates Marketing has announced in a press statement the expansion of its Peruvian mango import programme for the 2013 season, with a 60 per cent increase in volume compared with last year's campaign.
The decision follows a very successful Ecuadorean mango programme for which the Idaho Falls-based company said it achieved excellent sales and good customer acceptance of the Kingston-branded fruit.
While Kingston said it has been developing its mango programme with grower partners in Central and South America for some time, this year's Ecuadorean deal saw the introduction of Kingston-branded mango cartons.
Mango growers in Tanzania can only manage to meet the market demand of the crop both within the country and overseas, if they will produce at least 5 per cent of the current global demand.
Hamad Mkopi, an agronomist with the Association of Mango Growers (AMAGRO) made the remarks yesterday after the three day Mango Tasting Festival that took place at Mnazi Mmoja grounds in Dar es Salaam on Saturday.
"Mango growers should raise crop production because the demand for the fruit is still high and the cultivation capacity still remains very low," he said.
Highlighting on the global market demand, he said, at the moment, mango demand from Tanzania are between 100 and 200 tonnes of mangoes a week, while the domestic market buys 100 tonnes per week for industrial processing. At least 15,000 tonnes are needed for processing locally in one season, he said.
Exported mango volumes were up 10% last week, coming in at 1,324,204 boxes, the National Mango Board reported.
Ecuador took the lead over Peru with 702,000 boxes and 11% growth. Peru grew 9% at 622,204 boxes.
As the Ecuadorian season comes to an end, however, Peru will soon take over the reins.
The Ecuadorian season began in late September and ends shortly in mid-January, reflected by the projected volume drop of 450,000 boxes for the next week. The season is expected to close at 8.8 million boxes.
Peru began in November and will end in mid-March with approximately 9 million boxes. The nation is forecasted to put out 1,327,585 and 1,203,293 boxes respectively over the next two weeks.
The main varieties for Ecuador were Tommy Atkins (70% of exports), Keitt (15%) and Ataulfo (10%).
Peru is dominated by Kent (90%), followed by Haden (5%), Tommy Atkins (4%) and Ataulfo (1%).
SWITZERLAND – NORWAY – Not a good end to the year for Swiss 3PL group Panalpina which has not only had to write off some of the assets it thought it held in Grieg Logistics, the Norwegian agency it partially acquired in 2011 from the Grieg Group, but also found itself at the wrong end of a 3.12 million Swiss franc fine from its home country's Competition Commission along with substantial penalties imposed on other major freight forwarding groups.
The Grieg Logistics freight portfolio consists largely of oil and gas contracts and it is presumably the loss of one of these lucrative energy related customers which has caused Panalpina to announce that it expects an impairment charge of CHF 29 million to be recorded against the former Grieg assets in its full-year financial statement 2012.


The Gospel ends with a preposition, and essentially says nothing happens after Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Salome were encountered by the spirit at the tomb, telling them Jesus had risen. It's as if someone pulled Mark away from his desk just as he was about to wrap up his writings.
This Gospel ending was so unsatisfying the future Biblical scholars added onto the ending of Mark — adding a "shorter ending of Mark" and "longer ending of Mark" to the Bible we use today (NRSV).
But perhaps Mark was intentional about his ending. Because the Gospels aren't about the disciples … they're about Jesus. And Jesus lives on beyond the Bible, beyond the church and beyond the world.

Fire Update - June 12, 2012: During yesterday's operational period, crews continued to rehabilitate fire lines and roads along the northern fire boundary from Devil's Park on Road 626 to the union of Indian Creek and the Middle Fork of the Gila River. Today's efforts will include rehabilitation of dozer lines in cold areas of the fires. Road damage that occurred from increased fire traffic on the road system is being rehabilitated as needed.
The increased visible fire activity occurred in pockets of unburned brush in Brush and Sycamore Canyons. Visible smoke and fire behavior was short-lived. Fire fighters and air support were standing by to keep the fire in containment lines. Crews and air resources are standing by in the southern boundary where fire activity has been present.
