Q: Want to replace some cells in workbook. Does Excel support regular expression in search and replacement? I do not use Excel often, and have no idea about VBA. After I imported the data from excel to R(using read.csv()), all the missing data were replaced by NA . The NA remained there after I exported the data matrix through write.csv(). Now I want to clear all the cells with NA, and have tried to use regular expression as I did everywhere else. For example, I tried this in the search and replacement: ^NA$, but it seems do not make any sense in excel. And I searched through google, while everyone are suggesting using VBA, which I know nothing about. I am wondering whether excel support regular expression in its search and replacement function. If does, then it would be easier for me to understand.

A: The write.csv function has an na argument. This determines what goes into cells with NA. By default, na="NA". If you change this to na="", you can have blank cells in your workbook.
For example:
write.csv(data, "data.csv", na="")

We're continuing with our harvesting operations to assist the supply of wood products. Helping to sustain essential services in the health, food and energy sectors.
All of our forestry sites are subject to strict checks to ensure that we are operating within current Government guidelines on coronavirus and social distancing measures.
We remain in close contact with Public Health Wales and will be reviewing our procedures daily in order to keep our staff, contractors, customers and partners safe.

In April last year, work began to remove approximately 70 hectares of diseased larch trees from the Sirhowy Valley which were infected with phytopthera Ramorum, more commonly known as larch disease.
The operation has now been completed and work is underway to reinstate footpaths.
We'd like to thank the local community for their patience while we've undertaken this important work.
Larch disease, or Phytophthora ramorum, is a fungus-like disease which can cause extensive damage and mortality to a wide range of trees and other plants. Larch disease spreads through airborne spores from tree to tree. It poses no threat to human or animal health.
Whilst we cannot stop the spread of larch disease, we can take action to slow it down.
In 2013, surveys identified that larch disease was spreading rapidly across forestry in Wales, sparking a nationwide strategy to remove diseased trees to stop it spreading further.
The disease has infected approximately 6.7 million larch trees across the whole of Wales and has had a dramatic impact on our forestry.
We are legally required to remove infected larch trees under the Statutory Plant Health Notice - Movement (SPHNm) which is issued by Welsh Government.
When the work began last year, unfortunately we had to close off public access to the forestry.
We do not like to close off access to our forests, which are enjoyed by many, but this is the safest way to allow the work to be undertaken quickly and safely.
Much of the forest is now reopen to visitors, but small scale closures and diversions will remain in place while the reinstatement work takes place, and while restocking gets underway.
Please continue to adhere to safety and diversion signs within the forestry.
Even timber from diseased larch can still be processed and used. After processing it can be used for a number of wood products including building materials, pallets, fencing and wood fuel pellets.
All income from timber sales goes towards the operating costs that we incur through managing the Welsh Government woodland estate. Our costs exceed the revenue generated by timber sales so we also receive additional financial support from Welsh Government. This enables us to continue to provide many free facilities throughout Wales for the benefit of local communities and visitors.
Before work began we worked closely with a bird surveyor to thoroughly survey the site for any nesting birds. Any nests that were found had an exclusion zone put around them and the teams worked around the area until the birds had finished breeding and vacated the nest.
Read more about felling during bird nesting season
While we always try to retain as much broadleaf as possible while carrying out harvesting operations, sometimes trees can lose stability after the larch has been removed and become dangerous.
After the larch was removed, our safety inspections found some roadside broadleaf trees which had become unstable and were at risk of falling. Unfortunately these had to be removed for public safety reasons.
We will be replanting over the next three planting seasons, which take place between November and April. The reason we plant in the winter is because we need the trees to become dormant before the nursery can lift and transport the trees for us to plant in our woodlands.
The Sirhowy valley is a Planted Ancient Woodland Site (PAWS) and we will be replanting it with native broadleaves which are more resilient and help secure the site for the future. You can read more about our restocking work in our news section.
Planted Ancient Woodland Sites (PAWS) are sites which are believed to have been continuously wooded for over 400 years and currently have a canopy cover of more than 50 percent non-native conifer tree species. From 2011 5,000ha of Ancient Woodland has been identified on the Welsh Government Woodland Estate that we manage.

Q: Killing a Perl process in Linux I started a perl process that runs a script and I want to end it, but not the rest of perl scripts. How do I target it and not the rest?

A: Just kill it by its process id (PID), like any other linux process:
$ kill 12345

If you don't know the PID, you can figure it out with ps:
$ ps -ef | grep myperlscript
user  3936  3904  0 Feb02 ?        01:13:31 /usr/bin/perl ...

The PID is the second value in each line of output, 3936 in this example.

#1 | Obama overturns ban preventing criminal Ecuadorean Democratic donor from entering U.S. Wed Dec 17, 2014 11:48 am

This is more than just another of those moments that warily conservatives point to when President Barack Obama or his defenders insist that no administration has operated stricter border controls or pursued more deportations of illegal immigrants. This is criminal.
According to a damning report in The New York Times, the White House recently overturned a ban on allowing a wealthy Ecuadorean woman from entering the United States after her family donated tens of thousands of dollars to Democrats.
"The woman, Estefanía Isaías, had been barred from coming to the United States after being caught fraudulently obtaining visas for her maids," The Times reported. "But the ban was lifted at the request of the State Department under former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton so that Ms. Isaías could work for an Obama fund-raiser with close ties to the administration."
That was not the only action the Obama administration has taken on the deeply suspect Isaías family's behalf.
The family, which has been investigated by federal law enforcement agencies on suspicion of money laundering and immigration fraud, has made hundreds of thousands of dollars in contributions to American political campaigns in recent years. During that time, it has repeatedly received favorable treatment from the highest levels of the American government, including from New Jersey's senior senator and the State Department.
The Obama administration has allowed the family's patriarchs, Roberto and William Isaías, to remain in the United States, refusing to extradite them to Ecuador. The two brothers were sentenced in absentia in 2012 to eight years in prison, accused of running their bank into the ground and then presenting false balance sheets to profit from bailout funds. In a highly politicized case, Ecuador says the fraud cost the country $400 million.
The most damning accusation implicates the Obama's, Clinton and her closest confidants at State, Cheryl Mills, and Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) in what became, according to The Times, a quid pro quo relationship; campaign donations for waiving a ban on U.S. entry.

Черниговский музей украинских древностей — музей в Чернигове, существовавший в 1902—1925 годах.

История
Для нужд музея в 1900-1901 годах было перестроено и переоборудовано здание на окраине Чернигова, где размещался ремесленный класс сиротского дома. Это здание известно как дом В. В. Тарновского.

Музей открыт в 1902 году черниговской губернской земской управой на основе завещанных ей музейных и архивных реликвий коллекции В. В. Тарновского.

При советской власти экспонаты музея пополнили экспозиции и фонды Государственного музея Т. Г. Шевченко в Киеве. Собрание автографов было передано в отдел рукописей Института литературы имени Т. Г. Шевченко АН УССР. Другие материалы теперь хранятся в Черниговском областном историческом музее имени В. В. Тарновского.

Сейчас в доме бывшего музея размещается Черниговская областная библиотека для юношества.

Описание
Самая ценная часть коллекции В. В. Тарновского составляла шевченкиада, которая насчитывала 758 экспонатов. Среди них — 18 оригинальных писем Тараса Шевченко, около 30 автографов произведений (в частности «Щоденник»), свыше 20 личных документов поэта. В коллекции было свыше 80 писем и записей про похороны Шевченко, его личные вещи (мольберт, муштабель, палитра, живописное и гравировальное оборудование, стул, бутылка, рубаха и прочее), посмертная маска и перст с его волосами, около 400 произведений Шевченко (среди них 285 рисунков и картин, два альбома с 50 акварелями, 38 гравюр), 200 примеров иконографии Шевченко, собрание публикаций его произведений и изданий про него (248 единиц). В 1907 году музею были переданы автографы поэта из архива «Третьего отдела», среди них рукописное собрание — «Три літа» («Три лета»).

I wish I could tell you about this card - the image, etc. But I can't. It was a card kit that I received from a friend and I can't find the image info (guess I threw that out - sorry). But I do love it and would love to add this image to my collection! So maybe it's a good thing that I don't know what it is so that I won't be able to buy more stamps!!!
What a beautiful card. Beautiful layout.
Hi Zella, hope all is well!! Love your beautiful card, fab design and papers too!! Thank you so much for sharing with us at our Mad about Plaid Challenge at Love to Create!

The cunning of its layout – wide margins, generous print – cannot conceal the fact that, like so much of Andreï Makine's fiction, this book is remarkably short. In its poetic conciseness, his work has always reminded me of the novellas that won Ivan Bunin the distinction, denied to Tolstoy and Chekhov, of becoming (in 1933) the first Russian to win the Nobel Prize. That Makine himself, a native Russian now writing in French, will one day win that prize is something that I have already predicted in print.

A retired FBI agent testified Thursday that he used a Soviet woman in a "dangle" operation, an attempt to convince Soviet officials that he was available for espionage work.
Under cross-examination in the Los Angeles federal court spy trial of Svetlana and Nikolai Ogorodnikov on espionage charges, John Hunt admitted that he knew the term "dangle" meant "to make a person appear that he was malleable for espionage work."
The former agent, who was head of a special FBI counterintelligence program in 1982, also acknowledged that he told Svetlana Ogorodnikova to provide Soviet officials a description of him that would constitute "a dangle."
Hunt has testified previously that he told Ogorodnikova to tell the Soviets that he was a heavy drinker and spent too much money.
The former agent said he met Ogorodnikova almost every day for a week in August, 1982. He said the meetings were arranged after she told him that a Soviet consular official in San Francisco, Boris Belyakov, had called and suggested that she make a trip to Washington to confer with Soviet officials there.
"Isn't it correct that during the meetings with Mrs. Ogorodnikov you would say things to encourage her to go?" the woman's attorney, Greg Stone, asked.
"I would say things to prepare her to go," Hunt responded, insisting repeatedly that he did not order Ogorodnikova to make the trip.
"Would you practice with her to see how she would answer questions?" Stone asked.
"Yes, I did," Hunt said, adding that after one such rehearsal, he concluded that she would be unsuccessful in carrying out the FBI's mission if she went to the embassy.
Stone focused his cross-examination on the close relationship between Hunt and Ogorodnikova at a time when the agent said he was trying to develop her as an FBI informant and possibly a counterintelligence agent. Hunt denies that she was ever signed as an FBI informant, but the defense contends the defendant did work for the bureau.
The government contends Ogorodnikova, 34, and her 51-year-old husband conspired in 1984 with another FBI agent, Richard W. Miller, to pass classified documents to the Soviet Union.
Miller, the first FBI agent ever charged with espionage, will stand trial after the Soviet couple.

Born: September 29, 1908 - Denver, Colorado
Deceased: January 30, 1967
100 yd. - 9.50
100 m - 10.30
Only 5' 7" and 145 pounds, Eddie Tolan was a compact, confident sprinter who ruled the 100 and 200 meters from 1929 to 1932. The highlight of his career was the Los Angeles Olympics, in which he won the 100 by the narrowest of margins over fellow Hall of Famer Ralph Metcalfe in a world record-tying 10.3, then won the 200 easily in an Olympic record 21.2. Tolan's running career got off to an auspicious start at Detroit's Cass Tech High School, where he won his first sprint double at the state meet as a sophomore, before doubling at the National Interscholastic Championships in his senior year. After entering the University of Michigan, he made headlines in 1929 when he set a world record of 9.5 in the 100-yard dash. He went on to win the 1931 national collegiate 220 yard title as well as four National AAU sprint titles. At the 1932 Olympic Trials, he finished second in both the 100 and 200 to Metcalfe. But at the Olympics, he regained his winning form, taking both the sprint events. Over his career, Tolan won 300 races and lost just seven.

Government report highlights Essex Police "Not recording crimes"
By Staff Reporter on May 1, 2014 No Comment
A REPORT into several police forces, including Essex, has found tens of thousands of offences could be going unrecorded.
A fifth of crimes – equivalent to tens of thousands of offences – could be going unrecorded by police, a damning report has found.
An inspection of 13 forces, including Essex, found 14 rapes were among offences not recorded by officers, including an allegation made by a 13-year-old autistic boy written off as "sexual experimentation".
Another rape was not recorded due to "workload pressure" as recording the crime would "entail too much work", the report by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) said.
The police watchdog also found some offenders have been issued with out-of-court disposals, such as cautions, when they should have been prosecuted.
And inspectors said they could not rule out "discreditable or unethical behaviour" on the part of officers for the failure rate.
Home Secretary Theresa May said the report exposed "unacceptable failings by the police" and warned that once HMIC concludes its work in October, official figures may show a spike in police recorded crime.
HM chief inspector of constabulary Tom Winsor said: "The consequences of under-recording of crime are serious, and may mean victims and the community are failed because crimes are not investigated, the levels of crime will be wrongly under-stated, and police chiefs will lack the information they need to make sound decisions on the deployment of their resources."
The police watchdog is conducting an inspection into the way all 43 forces in England and Wales record crime data and said if its findings so far reflect the national picture, it could mean 20% of crimes may be going unrecorded.
Figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) last week showed police recorded 3.7 million offences in the year to December 2013 – but if HMIC is correct, the real figure could be as high as 4.4 million.
Out of a sample of 3,102 incidents, HMIC found 2,551 crimes should have been recorded but 523 were not, including sexual offences, crimes of violence, robbery and burglary.
In one example given by the watchdog within an unidentified force, a 13-year-old child with autism told his parents that he had been sexually assaulted by a 15-year-old male friend.
Police were contacted but no crime was recorded on the grounds that to do so would have a negative effect on the victim and it was wrongly written off as sexual experimentation, HMIC said.
Another example where "workload pressure" was given as the basis for not recording a crime was a report of rape, according to the findings.
The report said: "In this example, it was considered that recording the crime would entail too much work, as the officer made a judgment that the circumstances of the complaint made it unlikely that the case would be prosecuted."
HMIC also found that more than one in 10 out-of-court disposals reviewed, which included cautions, penalty notices for disorder (PNDs), cannabis warnings and community resolutions, should not have been due to the offending history of the individual. In some of these cases, the offender should have been charged.
Turning to motive, inspectors said: "In the light of what we have so far found, which could conceptually be contradicted by later results, it is difficult to conclude that none of these failures was the result of discreditable or unethical behaviour. The failure rate is too high."
Police forces inspected so far are Cheshire, City of London, Devon and Cornwall, Essex, Gloucestershire, Greater Manchester, Gwent, Hertfordshire, the Metropolitan Police, Norfolk, North Wales, North Yorkshire and South Yorkshire.
The Home Secretary said: "HMIC's interim report exposes unacceptable failings by the police.
"It is quite possible, once HMIC has completed its work on recorded crime statistics and made recommendations on how the police need to improve, that we will see an increase in recorded crime.
"If that increase is driven by improved accuracy in the recording of crime or more victims reporting crime to the police, we should welcome it.
"Such an increase would not mean that crime itself is rising."
She added: "Despite these concerns about the accuracy of recorded crime statistics, we can be confident that crime is falling and is at its lowest level since the crime survey began in 1981."
The shocking report comes after serious concerns were raised over the integrity of crime figures, sparked by claims made by former Metropolitan Police officer James Patrick last year.
Mr Patrick, who has since resigned, told MPs that massaging crime figures to hit performance targets had become "an ingrained part of policing culture".
His comments, combined with further evidence submitted to Parliament, ultimately led to the UK Statistics Authority stripping police-recorded crime figures of their gold-standard status.
Nick Alston, Police and Crime Commissioner for Essex, said:
"The HMIC interim report into crime recording is an important document. The accurate recording of crime is critical to understanding what is going on in our communities. Without accurate crime data, how can we hope to deploy our police officers, PCSOs and police staff in an intelligent and optimal fashion, keeping people safe and secure across our county.
"As Police and Crime Commissioner I have given this issue high priority since my election. In November 2013, I was one of three PCCs to give evidence to parliament's Public Administration Select Committee and I stated unequivocally:
'It is crucial that crime is recorded correctly and ethically by our police forces. This is a matter of police integrity, of treating victims with respect and of ensuring that officers have the most accurate possible information as they work both to prevent crime and bring criminals to justice.'
"Across the 13 forces inspected in the interim report, the implication drawn by HMIC is that 20% of crimes may be going unrecorded across England and Wales. I agree with HMIC that this is a matter of serious concern.
"The good news in Essex is that of a representative 73 incidents examined by HMIC, only 5, under 7%, were incorrectly recorded as 'no crimes' in our county.
"Of 120 crimes examined by HMIC that should have been recorded as crimes, 110, around 92%, were correctly recorded as crimes.
"In short, HMIC's inspection has found that crime is largely recorded accurately and ethically in Essex. The HMIC interim report provides independent validation of the robust processes that exist in Essex Police to ensure that crimes are correctly recorded, enabling informed and intelligent decisions to be made around the deployment of our police officers, PCSOs and police staff.
"Chief Constable Stephen Kavanagh has shown clear and strong leadership on the importance of accurate crime recording, developing and building on the work of his predecessor, Jim Barker-McCardle. I am pleased that the people of Essex can have confidence that when they report crime, then the information they provide will be treated professionally and properly by their police force. And I would stress again, everyone must report crime to police.
"However, I am not complacent. At the heart of my role as PCC is the task of holding the Chief Constable to account. On behalf of the people of Essex, I will continue to insist that crime is recorded accurately and ethically in our county."
Government report highlights Essex Police "Not recording crimes" added by Staff Reporter on May 1, 2014

Consequences of Pituitary Adenoma

An adenoma is a gland tumor, and when affecting the pituitary gland, is known as a pituitary adenoma. Learn the symptoms, conditions, and treatments for tumors that consequently affect the body's 'master gland', a critical component of the endocrine system equilibrium. Updated: 09/28/2021
The Pituitary Gland
The pituitary gland is sometimes referred to as the body's master gland. It's an appropriate nickname, because this tiny gland acts as a control center for the body's endocrine system. Attached to the brain's hypothalamus, it bridges the gap between the nervous and endocrine systems by receiving signals from the brain and stimulating several hormonal pathways. It oversees growth and development and regulates the function of specific organs and glands.
There are nine major hormones made by the pituitary gland. For this lesson, let's review three of them, their function, and their target tissues and organs.
ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic Hormone) adrenal gland stimulates the production of cortisol and aldosterone
GH (Growth Hormone) many cells in body stimulates growth and development
Prolactin breast tissue secretion of milk from mammary glands
Pretty impressive for a gland that is only about the size of a pea!
An adenoma is a tumor of a gland - specifically, in a gland's epithelial tissue. A pituitary adenoma is, then, a tumor of the pituitary gland. Pituitary adenomas range in size and severity, and their cause is unknown. Macroadenomas are over 1 cm; microadenomas are less than 1 cm. Most adenomas are benign, and the ones that are malignant rarely spread to other organs or glands. They may be either functioning - that is, they secrete hormones - or non-functioning, which means they are simply growths on the adrenal gland and do not secrete anything. If you think about the three hormones we just covered, you can see why a functioning pituitary adenoma will likely have very profound effects on the body!

Symptoms and Conditions
Because the pituitary gland has so many functions, the symptoms of a pituitary adenoma vary widely. In this lesson, we'll address just a few general symptoms and three major conditions caused by pituitary adenoma.
General symptoms of pituitary adenomas include those of many brain tumors. These are considered to be 'mechanical' since they're caused by the physical pressure of the tumor on surrounding brain structures. These include headaches, vision problems, depression and other mood disorders, and fatigue.
Acromegaly is usually the result of a functioning pituitary adenoma that secretes growth hormone. The condition comes from the body's inability to use its normal feedback pathway to stop the production of growth hormone and the cascade of other hormone pathways that it triggers. The word 'acromegaly' literally means 'large extremities' and accurately describes some of the symptoms of this condition, which include enlargement of body parts like hands, feet, nose, lips, and ears, as well as a protruding brow and lower jaw, joint pain, sleep apnea, and excess perspiration.
If the pituitary adenoma produces too much prolactin, it's called a prolactinoma. Prolactin is a hormone that causes breast tissue to make milk. As in acromegaly, the prolactin pathway is usually under tight control by the body, stimulated by childbirth and breastfeeding. If not stimulated by these acts, prolactin production normally falls. In women, prolactinomas can cause galactorrhea, the inappropriate production of milk; that is, milk is produced even though a woman is neither pregnant nor nursing. Too much prolactin can also cause infertility and irregular or sometimes absent menstruation, amenorrhea. In men, symptoms of this type of prolactinoma are usually limited to sexual dysfunction and the general symptoms we discussed earlier in this lesson.
A condition caused by exposure to high concentrations of cortisol, called Cushing's disease, is often caused by pituitary adenoma. In this condition, the pituitary adenoma secretes ACTH, which acts on the adrenal glands to produce large, uncontrolled amounts of cortisol. Excess cortisol causes weight gain, especially around the face and between the shoulder blades. People who have Cushing's also heal slowly, bruise easily, and may have difficulty controlling their blood sugar.
As with symptoms, treatment of pituitary adenomas varies and must be tailored to the needs of the patient. For example, many non-functioning adenomas are simply monitored through MRI. Most macroadenomas, especially those that cause consistent vision problems, are removed surgically, specifically transsphenoidal surgery, entrance through the nasal cavity and the sphenoid bone at the bottom of the skull. Surgery has about an 80% cure rate, especially if followed by radiation.
If the tumor is functioning, however, then the upset balance of the endocrine system is sometimes restored through medication. Let's take a look at some of the ways drugs are used to treat the conditions we've discussed.
Adenomas that secrete growth hormones are treated primarily with somatostatins, a class of drugs that are synthetic replicas of the naturally produced hormones that prevent growth hormone from being released from the pituitary gland.
Prolactomas are treated, and treated very effectively, with a class of drugs called dopamine receptor agonists. Let's break that down into three parts. First, dopamine is a neurotransmitter. In the brain, one function of dopamine is to inhibit the secretion of prolactin. Second, an agonist is the opposite of an antagonist. Remember: the antagonist of a story is the villain, the character that works against the hero or heroine, while an agonist works with something. Third, dopamine receptor agonists bind to dopamine receptors when no dopamine is present. Therefore, these drugs function by binding to receptors on the pituitary adenoma, preventing prolactin from being secreted.
It's important to note that if surgery can be done safely and effectively, it's often used as the first course of treatment. In the case of Cushing's, for example, surgery is almost always the preferred treatment. On the other hand, if the adenoma is very small, it's not uncommon to take a watch-and-wait approach - that is, to monitor the patient's health and treat symptoms according to need.
Let's review.
The body's master gland, the pituitary gland is the control center for the body's endocrine system. Its jobs include overseeing growth and development and regulating the function of specific organs and glands.
An adenoma is a tumor of a gland, specifically, in a gland's epithelial tissue. Therefore, a pituitary adenoma is a tumor of the pituitary gland. These tumors range in size and severity, and their cause is unknown. Adenomas are sometimes classified by their size and severity. Macroadenomas are over 1 cm; microadenomas are less than 1 cm. Most adenomas are benign, and the ones that are malignant rarely spread to other organs or glands. They may be either functioning - that is, they secrete hormones - or non-functioning, which means they do not secrete hormones.
The symptoms of pituitary adenoma vary widely. Non-functioning adenomas usually cause symptoms similar to those of most brain tumors, including headaches, vision problems, depression and other mood disorders, and fatigue.
Symptoms of a functioning adenoma depend on the hormone they secrete. Three examples of conditions caused by functioning pituitary adenomas are:
Acromegaly, caused by excess secretion of growth hormone,
Galactorrhea caused by prolactinomas, which secrete prolactin, and
Cushing's disease, caused by excess secretion of ACTH, which, in turn, causes excess cortisol production.
Treatment of adenomas also varies, with surgery being the most common. Specific drugs are also used for functioning adenomas. Specifically, somatostatins are used to treat acromegaly, and dopamine agonists to treat prolactinomas.
After completion of this lesson, you should be able to:
Describe a pituitary adenoma and what it does
Recognize the various symptoms and conditions depending on the type of adenoma
Identify the types of treatment available due to the adenoma's function

My sister Tina stared blankly forward in reflection as she lay helpless in her hospital bed at the Kaiser P. hospital in San Francisco. I asked her a simple question: "So are you done?" She glared back at me and replied: "No," and replaced her original stare. She now has titanium rods supporting her right tibia and fibula and her left acetabulum is still healing from the fracture that the MUNI bus left her with after it smushed her from behind on the corner of Bay and Embarcadero, as she rode her bicycle from work to the Rock Gym. On that day, right before spring break, she JUST happened to be wearing her helmet and a backpack stuffed full with gym clothes to cushion her from impact. We don't stop, cause we can't stop. Ride or die suckazz. Peace.

British Mineralogy
CCCCLXXXIX
Silex quartzum
Amorphous Quartz or Flint
Flints that lie upon the Chalk about Salisbury plain, &c. in Wiltshire show much variety, and have mostly been noticed as being casts of various animal remains. I believe the appearance represented in the upper figure has not been before mentioned. The marking cannot be called dendritrical, or described by any other term used in Mineralogy that I know of; and in addition to oilier unaccountable circumstances attending the formation of Flints, which seem to have been in different states of fluidity capable of taking the nicest casts or impressions, we here find an after substance taking up more or less of the space or vacancies that were apparently formed in the flint by a hot and dry process cracking it. This substance distinguishes itself in the form of a pure white opaque Calcedony, and has in this instance adhered to one side of the crack In such a manner as often to allow the flint to divide again and show the partial passage of the Calcedony which has formed in globules like moisture, and running in various directions confined by the narrow space, has become flattened; and while the effect excites curiosity, it serves to explain the sort of fluidity that succeeded that of the Hint. These flints have a marly brown outside.
The lower specimen is a fractured flint from an upper series below Highgate hill towards Barney and the whiter markings appear to be in consequence of some parts being more susceptible of change by exposure to weather or bleaching than others. It is thus I would account for it; and as most flints have apparently enveloped various matters, the parts within may be in a state of union, yet sufficiently irregular to be acted upon partially; these mixtures may also account for the variety of colours, transparency, spots, &c. in flints: this indeed is distinctly seen in some that have enclosed Madrepores, which are replaced transparently, while the rest is more opaque and has the usual gray appearance.

The influx of ebullient and heady chardonnays from Burgundy capture the senses with their ripe cores and savoury tones of flint and struck match, making us drool with delight (choose wisely who you share a bottle with!).
These are difficult wines to make; their racy and rich composures defy deliciousness. Yet, push the sulphides too far and you're left wondering where the keystone to the wine – the fruit – is. Some of our favourite white Burgundy producers mastering this play with sulphides include Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey, Roulot, Henri Boillot, Arnaud Ente, Coche-Dury and Pierre Boisson. 'Who's Pierre Boisson', you might ask? Read on. You need to know, because whilst prices from other producers have sky- rocketed, Boisson's remain relatively accessible.
The Boisson name appears on three different labels; Pierre Boisson, Anne Boisson and Boisson-Vadot. Despite this, the wines are exactly the same, created collaboratively at the family's Meursault cellars. Pierre Boisson works alongside his father Bernard making the wines, and counts Raphaël Coche, son of Jean-François Coche (of cult producer Domaine Coche-Dury), as a close friend. The vines are located primarily in Meursault, with smaller holdings in Auxey-Duresses, Monthélie, Pommard and Beaune. One of their key assets are the prime parcels of land, owning three of the best 'lieux-dits' in Meursault: Sous la Velle, Grands Charrons and Chevalières.
The Boissons conduct winemaking with a guiding hand. No more than 30% new oak is used in the top cuvées, less for the village and Bourgogne Blanc offerings. They eschew fertilisers and pesticides in favour of thoughtful practices. Indeed, a clear thread passes through each wine. An underlying terroir shines through, the ultimate goal of the top tiered Burgundy producers, and a pure delight for us wine drinkers.
A content and small producer working 8.5 ha, the Boisson family has been producing wines that have proven difficult to secure distribution into Australia (and worldwide for that matter). On his annual Burgundy pilgrimage to Domaine Leroy, importer Patrick Walsh has knocked on the Boisson's door year after year, always being politely declined. Finally in 2017, a small trickle was allowed into Australia. The current offering is the best to date, spread across three vintages; 2016, 2015 and 2014.
Please note these wines are rare, and we've included a 10% discount on retail prices until 14 February 2019 (or until stocks sell out). Send us your wish-list and we'll be in touch to confirm what we are able to offer. Don't delay if you'd like to secure your share, the top cuvées brim with intensity and are very ageable.

The notes below are taken from both their American importer, Polaner Selections and Australian importer Cellarhand.
~ 60-year-old vines close to the village of Meursault. Vinified and raised 100% barrel fermented with indigenous yeasts and matured in oak. Broad yet refined.
~ composed of various vines (average age 30 years) situated around the Meursault appellation. This could easily be mistaken for a Meursault with its broad texture and hints of lime, nuts and honey.
~ A blend from two parcels of vines, Les Perchots (50 years old) and Les Criots (25 years old). Stony clay-limestone soils on a gentle slope. Wine with finesse and character amplified by a long élevage over 21 months. Hazelnut-tinged fruit of the village coupled to lovely minerality and notes of lime zest.
~ planted in 1982, racier and more mineral in profile, with a tighter fruit component in its youth that recalls lime, delicious apples and just a touch of honey, layered over a great base of stony soil tones.

A 30-day state of emergency has been lifted early in the Maldives after "important progress" in an inquiry into a blast on President Abdulla Yameen's boat.
The state of emergency was declared on November 4 to aid security forces after what the government said was a plot to assassinate Abdulla Yameen.
Abdulla Yameen narrowly escaped injury when a blast struck his boat last month.
US investigators said they had not been able to find any evidence that the blast was an assassination attempt.
"We are pleased that this matter has been dealt with so swiftly. We are looking forward to getting the country back on a more normal footing," said Foreign Affairs Minister Dunya Maumoon.
The state of emergency gave wider powers to police and armed forces to arrest suspects and suspend freedom of assembly and movement. Members of the country's military patrolled the streets while it was in effect.
It came two days before a planned protest by the country's main opposition, the Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP).
The Maldives, a popular destination for honeymooners and other tourists, has been rocked by political unrest in recent months. VP Ahmed Adeeb was impeached earlier this month, accused of involvement in the alleged boat assassination plot.
Ahmed Adeeb, whose predecessor was also impeached in July, is accused of high treason, a charge he denies.

My Friday Five: Little Bit Of Sports, Little Bit Of Music
What's up?!? Hope everyone has had a good week! It's Friday, so that means it's time for another "My Friday Five." Enjoy!
1) Chris Stapleton is the Man!
I used to be a huge fan of country music several years ago but, my, how things have changed. The genre, more specifically, the mainstream form of the genre, has gone downhill quite a bit over the years. There has been this paradigm shift in what type of songs are played on mainstream country radio and I'm not liking it at all. Couple that with this weird fascination with "bro country" that started back in 2013 and I'm out! I can recall the days when I'd listen to just about anything country. Now, I only listen to a handful of country artists and some of the oldie but goodies – Garth Brooks, etc.
Enter the 2015 CMA Awards. Now, I'll preface this by saying that I did not watch for numerous reasons, including those stated above. However, I was stoked to learn that Chris Stapleton took home three awards Wednesday night. Stapleton is one of a handful of country artists I actually listen to. He's a talented songwriter that has written numerous hits, but is also involved with producing his own material. Stapleton's latest album Traveller is the best you'll hear in 2015. No doubt. Each and every song tells a story, just like the good 'ol days of country music – and not about having a house party and getting drunk with your girl or guy sitting shotgun in your pickup truck.
I'm not an old fogie. I don't mind a bit of a new sound for country music. What I do mind, however, is the content of the song itself. Mainstream country is just not doing it for me. If there is hope for a lost genre, it's Stapleton. Social media was filled with pissed off fans when Stapleton won New Artist of the Year over apparent favorite, Sam Hunt, and others but I'm so freaking happy he did – along with his other two awards of course. To top it off, Stapleton performed with the incomparable Justin Timberlake and brought the dang house down.
2) Battle for the Bell
North Carolina and Duke Football meet for the 102nd time in Chapel Hill on Saturday. But this latest installment of the "Battle of the Blues" is one of the most significant in recent memory. Both teams are sitting near or atop the ACC Coastal Division – Carolina in first place at 7-1 (4-0 ACC) and Duke in third place at 6-2 (3-1 ACC) – with the winner of this game having an inside track to the Coastal Division crown and a berth in the ACC Championship game in Charlotte. In addition, it's Homecoming in Chapel Hill and the six Lady Tar Heels on the recent FIFA World Cup Champion U.S. Women's Soccer Team will be honored in front of a sold out Kenan Stadium crowd at halftime. I'll be at the game and I'm sure I'll lose my voice – and my religion – before its all said and done. GTHD!
3) Idol Farewell Begins Soon
Well, I guess you can say the American Idol farewell has begun. Profile pictures have been changed on social media and a look back promo for the farewell season was released Oct. 30. You know, I'm really going to miss Idol, after all it's been a part of my life for going on 15 years. Wow! Hard to believe I was 8 when the show first aired.
Needless to say I'm not happy with the decision to end the show and, in my opinion, The Voice should be next. I know Idol has gone downhill over the years but The Voice hasn't produced a bonafide star in its nine seasons on air. I mean, can you name any of the people who won the show? Meanwhile, Idol produced two in its first four seasons – Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood – as well as several other successful artists. I don't care what you say, but The Voice has always been a competition between the "coaches" as opposed to the contestants. I haven't watched a single episode of The Voice but all I hear is "which coach will win" and the like. The contestants win on Idol and not the judges which has always been a sticking point with me. I'll more than likely never watch an episode of The Voice for the reasons above and the fact that I can't stand the host, Carson Daly, nor the "coaches" – except for Pharrell.
It's just ridiculous to me that Idol is being let go instead of other "reality" shows – Dancing with the Stars and The Bachelor/Bachelorette to name a few. I've already decided that I will no longer watch FOX programming once Idol is over. The network has cancelled so many shows I've liked over the years and Idol is the last straw for me. Oh well, at least I still have America's Got Talent.
4) Brian Kelly
I was disturbed to learn that Brian Kelly, head football coach at Notre Dame, got into a bit of an altercation on the sideline with assistant coach, David Grimes, during the game against Temple last Saturday. According to Bleacher Report, Kelly pushed Grimes away from a referee as he was discussing a call on the field. Kelly later said that he regretted the incident happened, but these moments of Kelly losing his cool on the sideline are apparently apart of a trend. Bleacher Report's Bryan Fischer said in the article: "The concerning thing is that's always been the case, and he has lost his cool on the sidelines repeatedly. At some point, we need to realize these aren't isolated incidents, but a trend." I get that coaches are human too and do get emotional during games – but you cannot put your hands on other coaches or players. Period.
5) The Truth About TOMS
I love this new show called Adam Ruins Everything. If you haven't seen it, you should. The show, hosted by Adam Conover, provides viewers several, factual tidbits about the week's given them. One of the latest episodes I watched was about giving. One segment of the show called out TOMS Shoes and its "buy one, give one" model. I would try to explain it in words but the video is just too good not to share.

Drew came to us for a suit for his wedding in November.
He wanted something in navy and with a waistcoat, and we designed him this suit making the waistcoat double breasted, so it was a little different from the norm.
The slanted, flapped pockets and contrast stitching on the cuffs and trouser bar-tacks give the suit that special bespoke feel.
HB-6 Navy herringbone with AD2 Camel self stripe lining, in a slim fit.
Single breasted 2 button jacket with notch collar, slanted flapped side pockets and double vent.

Q: Python "or" equivalent in Swift? Due to Swift cool behaviors I was looking for an or equivalent in Swift.
Something like this:
variable = value or default

I coded mine:
func |<T>(a:T?, b:T) -> T {
    if let a = a {
        return a
    }
    return b
}

But I was wondering if any default implementation of this already exists in Swift?
Edit:
Thanks to answers I found the reference in the Swift book:

Nil Coalescing Operator
The nil coalescing operator (a ?? b) unwraps an optional a if it contains a value, or returns a default value b if a is nil. The expression a is always of an optional type. The expression b must match the type that is stored inside a.
The nil coalescing operator is shorthand for the code below:
    a != nil ? a! : b

The code above uses the ternary conditional operator and forced unwrapping (a!) to access the value wrapped inside a when a is not nil, and to return b otherwise. The nil coalescing operator provides a more elegant way to encapsulate this conditional checking and unwrapping in a concise and readable form. (source)

A: Use ??:
var optional:String?
var defaultValue:String = "VALUE"

var myString:String = optional ?? defaultValue

print(myString)

A: You could use the nil coalescing operator
let variable = optional ?? default

Super-Cashmere
Manrico has been studying and researching Cashmere since 1993 and has developed innovative techniques of transformation, where man and technology barely touch the material, leaving its invisible, yet essential substance and natural function intact.
Nature is the world's prime, infallible certitude, capable of giving us such an ethereal material as the very fine, white, structurally perfect fibre from the undercoat of the Alashan goats in Inner Mongolia.
Cashmere has extraordinary heat-regulating properties, which have evolved as a result of the goats' need to withstand the area's high temperature excursions ranging from +50C° to - 50C°.
Super-Cashmere is the result of a meticulous selection of raw material.
The fibre we use measures 13.5 microns in diameter and is taken from Alashan goats under the age of 10 months, whose mother has produced material of no more than 14.9 microns during her lifetime.
The material is collected exclusively by delicately hand-combing the goat, using cruelty-free methods to protect the animal.
The work and technology used in the spinning, dyeing and weaving processes ensure an extremely fine, supple, hard-wearing yarn and the best combination of the structural knitting and fabric's features.
The final touch is the finishing, which gives the material back its original morphological properties.
Each stage of the entire production process follows criteria of maximum sustainability.
We have been able to explore Nature's perfection and treat it wisely, successfully creating an innovative product of exceptional beauty for your wellbeing: our Super-Cashmere, 100% Made in Italy.

Today in Apple history: Apple pays $450 million to settle e-books suit
Fashion world gawks at Apple Watch, but questions feminine appeal
By Alex Heath • 5:00 pm, September 11, 2014
Apple employees have been spotted wearing Apple Watch in the wild
Apple clearly wants its new watch to be more than just a cool gadget. It's no coincidence that Tuesday's event falls in line with New York Fashion Week, a time of the year when the world's top designers look for new tech to accessorize their outfits.
Journalists and prominent figures in the fashion industry were invited alongside the usual tech press to the Apple Watch's unveiling. The fashion world's initial reactions are mostly positive, but some question the device's appeal to women.
After interviewing people in the fashion industry, Reuters said, "Many praised the 'Apple Watch', priced from $349 when it debuts next year, for its clean aesthetic, but some bloggers and editors said the watch had a masculine aura, which would limit its allure to parts of the style-conscious crowd."
"It's not pretty," one female fashion director told the publication. "It's very future techno as opposed to feminine sexy."
"The Apple Watch will be a status symbol to carry"
"The Apple Watch will be a status symbol to carry," said Eric Wilson, fashion news director for InStyle Magazine. But he also said that its design is "generic in the sense of its flexibility and individualization" and that it's "a very masculine watch."
The comments about a lack of femininity are interesting given that Apple's Industrial Design group led by Jony Ive consists of several women.
It's clear to fashionistas that Apple's design respects the heritage of watch making, regardless of whether both genders will find its look appealing.
"Strangely enough, the visual appeal is almost retrofitted to the traditional language of the analog Swiss-made timepiece," said Vogue Contributing Editor Sarah Mower. "It's a watch that looks like a watch."
"Apple got more details right on their watch than the vast majority of Swiss and Asian brands"
Traditional watch aficionados have plenty of good things to say about the Apple Watch too. "Apple got more details right on their watch than the vast majority of Swiss and Asian brands do with similarly priced watches, and those details add up to a really impressive piece of design," said Benjamin Clymer in HODINKEE, one of the most widely read wristwatch publications in the world. "It offers so much more functionality than other digitals it's almost embarrassing."
One way Apple is trying to offer more choice when picking a watch is by selling two screen sizes at 38mm and 42mm. "I tried them both on, and they both worked perfectly on my wrist," wrote Clymer in a hands-on post. "They didn't exaggerate the options and make one decidedly male oriented at 44 mm and a girly equivalent at 35 mm or the like. Any man, woman, or child could pull off either size with ease."

Clymer when on to say how the Apple Watch "pays great homage to traditional watchmaking and the environment in which horology was developed."
Those who aren't watch aficionados may have been puzzled by Apple taking so long to demo astronomy features, such as seeing when there's a full moon, in its watch Tuesday. But according to Clymer, the focus on the world above our heads is Apple's way of nodding to the history of timepieces. "The fact that Apple chose to develop two faces dedicated to the cosmos shows they are, at the very least, aware of the origins and importance of the earliest timekeeping machines, and the governing body of all time and space – the universe."
But what do the Swiss watchmakers Jony Ive said were "fucked" think about the Apple Watch? The president of Patek Philippe told The Financial Times that, "It is not part of our world," whatever that means. "Ultimately you are talking about a $349 watch that will have to be constantly upgraded as the technology gets outdated. This timepiece has a shelf-life, unlike a Swiss mechanical watch, where people are investing in craftsmanship and heirlooms that can be passed down to future generations."

A conventional stereotype would be that some people are drinkers and some people are stoners and that's pretty much that. But a new report suggests that, given the option to legally get high, some people are swapping out their beer swilling for a toke or two because in states that have legalized marijuana, beer sales are in decline. Either that, or maybe some people just got too high to find the liquor store.
According to a new analysis from financial services firm Cowen and Company first cited by Brewbound, legalized marijuana is directly responsible for an underperformance in the beer business in the states of Colorado, Oregon and Washington. Additionally, the report states that "the magnitude of the underperformance has increased notably" over the past two years compared to the overall US beer market.
On the surface, this news would be especially surprising since these three states are considered three of the nation's leaders in America's craft beer renaissance. However, interestingly, Azer says that though craft beer sales are also slowing, the "biggest drag" on beer sales in these states is from mainstream brands. Premium domestic brands like Bud Light and Coors Light have seen volumes fall 4.4 percent. Comparatively, craft beer sales in Oregon and Washington are simply seeing slower growth.
Certainly some people will always prefer one buzz over the other, but if brews and buds really are competing for business, it might change the ways breweries market their products. For instance, they could make the label look cooler under a blacklight.
