Darling Street is a 3.1 kilometre street in Sydney, Australia running from Victoria Road to Balmain East ferry wharf. It is the main thoroughfare and high street of the suburbs of Rozelle and Balmain, and a noted café and restaurant strip.

Balmain Market is on the corner of Darling and Curtis Road.

History

In 1875, Darling Street received its first installation of gas lighting. The effect of this was so that during the late 1880s there was an increase of business due to the increase of illumination along the shopping strip at night. Twenty years prior to this the area where the town hall is now located was occupied by bushland.

Trams

Trams once ran all the way down Darling Street to Balmain East wharf. The first steam tram to service Darling Street was in 1892. Ten years later the service was electrified. A feature of this line was a counterweight dummy system that controlled and assisted trams on a steep single-line section of track near the terminus at Darling Wharf. Due to the very steep (1 in 8) descent at the eastern end of the street beyond Nicholson Street, the trams used a complex counterweight system constructed under the road surface. The trams were pushed up the steep hill by the dummy, and rode the dummy on the way down to safely descend the hill.

Gladstone Park Reservoir
Construction of the Gladstone Park Reservoir was announced in 1912 causing public outcry. The water board reassured residents that the park and bandstand would be restored to its former status once the reservoir was complete. Before construction of the reservoir residents obtained their water supply from backyard wells or water carts. Completed in 1917 the reservoir is still intact and the water is now used for reserve supply only.

Say au revoir to Les Gourmettes. These are the legendary Phoenix cooking school's last days
Lauren Saria
The Republic | azcentral.com
As the clock hits 9:30 a.m. on an unexpectedly rainy morning in May, Barbara Pool Fenzl clinks a fork against a water glass and calls class to order.
"We're still missing Carol," she says to the dozen students seated in an eclectic collection of wooden and folding chairs.
"But we always start right at 9:30 a.m."
The group has been chatting about the unusual weather and asking after mutual acquaintances while snacking on fresh-baked croissants for the last half hour. Now they settle into their seats with pens poised to take notes as chef Vincent Guerithault takes his place next to Fenzl at the front of the tight kitchen nook. He's provided recipes for a three-course French meal that starts with cheese souffle and ends with creme caramel.
"OK," Guerithault begins, wiping his hands on a towel and launching into a 90-minute class.
This is Les Gourmettes, a legendary Phoenix cooking school responsible for scores of students' abilities to whip egg whites into perfect peaks and expertly season and sear a rack of lamb. Fenzl founded the school, which is based in her home, nearly four decades ago. Over the years she's brought some of the food world's most luminary characters, including Julia Child and Jacques Pepin, to her kitchen to teach.
Guerithault was the first guest chef Fenzl invited to teach at the school. He'll also be one of the last.
On May 15, Les Gourmettes will host its final class as Fenzl retires and steps back from her role as one of the longest reigning grand dames of the Valley food community. For 36 years Les Gourmettes has been more than a place for students to learn to cook. The school has been the heart of a community that spans generations and has supported its members through good times and hard.
Its closure marks the end of an era for many.
That includes Guerithault. When asked if he'll miss cooking at Les Gourmettes, he answers without hesitation.
"Well, yeah," he says.
Then, eyeing Fenzl, he adds, "She's gonna cry."
How Les Gourmettes began
Lucy Lorenzen, seated in the front row of Guerithault's class, has been a student at Les Gourmettes since the school started. She's been to "too many classes to count" and still attends several every season, which runs from October to April.
She admits the classes are as much about learning to cook as about spending time with Fenzl and the other students she's come to know over the years.
That and the food, of course.
"I was more interested in (cooking) before," Lorenzen says. "Now I'm more interested in eating."
Fenzl's love of food led her to found Les Gourmettes. The Chicago native moved to Phoenix with her husband, Terry, an attorney, and began hosting dinner parties and events for the firm for which he worked. A mother of three, she joined the Junior League and earned spots on the boards of local arts and nonprofit organizations.
"The bottom line is I was very involved in the community, but it was not feeding my soul," Fenzl says.
So she began teaching a cooking course for Rio Salado Community College. Classes were held in the home economics classrooms at Arcadia High School. They drew students looking for college credits and women looking to deepen their culinary skills. Before Fenzl knew it, she'd developed a following.
Through an acquaintance (California wine royalty Robert Mondavi, whom Fenzl and her husband met on a trip) Fenzl was introduced to Julia Child, whom she invited to come to Phoenix to teach cooking classes at Phoenix Art Museum. It took a little effort, but Fenzl was able to persuade the quick-witted American chef and television star to venture to the Valley of the Sun.
The trip launched a decades-long friendship. And before Child left Fenzl at the end of that first visit, she gave Fenzl two pieces of advice.
"She told me, dearie — she always called people dearie so she didn't have to remember your name — you need to do two things," Fenzl says. "You need to start your own cooking school and you need to join the International Association of Culinary Professionals."
Fenzl did both, first attending Le Cordon Bleu in London before returning to Phoenix and founding Les Gourmettes in 1983.
Thanks in part to Fenzl's connections through the International Association of Culinary Professionals, which she joined in 1985 and eventually served as president, her school soon became a don't-miss stop for chefs touring the country. At the time, it wasn't uncommon for well-known chefs to travel from New York to Los Angeles teaching at cooking schools along the way.
Fenzl, a natural and gracious host, made Phoenix and Les Gourmettes a popular stop.
"I sort of got on that tour circuit and the word got out that I treated them well — I took them out to dinner, I had a funny husband — so then they wanted to come every year," Fenzl says.
Why Les Gourmettes is a big deal
Nohra Kellough sits in the last row of Guerithault's class, jotting notes and listening intently as he demonstrates how to make caramel in a copper pot. Kellough has been coming to Les Gourmettes for seven years, ever since her friend Sue Green first brought her and introduced her to Fenzl.
Green has since passed away but the classes bring Kellough some comfort.
"I feel her presence because these are the chairs we used to sit in," she says.
As the scent of toasted sugar fills the room, Guerithault tells the class about learning to make caramel when he was a cooking apprentice in France more than 50 years ago. Amber liquid bubbles and boils and Guerithault warns students to keep an ice bath nearby, not only to stop the cooking process at the correct time, but also in case they burn themselves.
"Those little hints, you can't find that in a cookbook," Kellough leans over to comment quietly. "That's the magic."
The intimate format at Les Gourmettes is a big part of the draw. Fenzl's kitchen can hold about a dozen students, and instructors work on a small station at the front of the room. Students in the front row use the edge of the table to take notes. Anyone can call out questions during the class.
And the guest teachers aren't just anyone in a chef's jacket and toque; the list of celebrities who have taught at Les Gourmettes is enough to make any food lover swoon.
Jacques Pepin, the world renowned French chef and television host, taught a class at the school every year for a decade. Other famous guests have included Paula Wolfert, Mark Miller and Ken Hom. Julia Child, of course, appeared on the course schedule and on one occasion Fenzl's friend Robert Mondavi stopped by just to say hi.
Name almost any well-known local chef and he or she has probably graced Fenzl's kitchen, too.
Christopher Gross, RoxSand Scocos, Kevin Binkley, Silvana Salcido Esparza and even Charleen Badman, recent winner of the 2019 Best Chef: Southwest award from the James Beard Foundation, all have taught at Les Gourmettes.
Like the teachers, many students have returned to Les Gourmettes for years. In some cases, for decades. But getting into the school is no small feat.
The price point is remarkably affordable — Fenzl charges $90 a class regardless of the instructor because she "never wanted to be elitist" — but classes are booked on a first come, first served basis. That means students race to sign up as soon as Fenzl releases the schedule months in advance. Dedicated pupils drop off their registration and payment in person at Fenzl's home.
"The funniest was when I had a process server come to my door," Fenzl says. "The student was out of town and paid someone to drop off their registration."
One couple at Guerithault's class had attempted to get into a class for 25 years before getting the chance to attend their first session, which would ironically also be one of the school's last. Their lucky break: Another student canceled at the last minute. Fenzl offered them a spot from the wait list that morning and they dropped everything to come.
For those fortunate enough to have attended many classes over the years, Les Gourmettes has earned a special places in their hearts and, in some cases, family traditions.
Sisters Sherry Cameron and Danielle Hanson are attending Guerithault's class together and have been coming to Les Gourmettes since they were teens. They began attending with their grandmother, Gene Johnson, who founded and owned the once-popular Bill Johnson's Big Apple restaurant chain.
"I'd like to say Barbara taught me how to cook, even though we came from a restaurant family," Hanson says.
"I remember once a chef was showing us how to peel asparagus and asked, 'Do any of you peel your asparagus?' I raised my hand and he said, 'Why?' I said, 'Because Barbara told me to.' Barbara tells me to do something, I do it."
What's next for Fenzl?
After Guerithault finishes answering the students' final questions, cheese souffles safely baking in Fenzl's oven, students move into the dining room for lunch. There, around a large rectangular table, Fenzl and her assistant serve while students chat.
Sue and Paige Callahan have been coming to Les Gourmettes since they moved to Phoenix from Chicago 12 years ago. For the mother and daughter, the cooking classes have been a consistent opportunity to spend time together despite the many developments in their lives.
"We came here when she was single," mother Sue says, gesturing to Paige. "We came here when she was married. Now she has two kids."
"That's why I'm so sad," she continues. "It's like, where do you go? This has been such a blessing."
These are the stories and people Fenzl will miss once Les Gourmettes has closed. But after 36 years, she says running the school has become a burden.
"It was just all of a sudden, it clicked," she says of the decision to retire. "The toilet overflowed one day and I was very gracious about it. But I was like, do I really need to do this?"
Fenzl opened the school with a business partner, but they went their separate ways after a few years. Ever since she's run the administrative side of the school on her own. Recently the list of emails she uses to send out the class schedule became too large for her personal account to handle. She switched to an email service but some students didn't get the class list at all. It had landed in their spam boxes.
It's a far cry from when Fenzl started the school in 1983, riding her bike around the neighborhood and stuffing flyers in mailboxes.
Fenzl says she's looking forward to spending more time with her children, one of whom lives in Switzerland. After the final classes end at Les Gourmettes, she and her husband plan to travel to Europe and visit.
"I've either lived right or I've been in the right place at the right time," Fenzl says. "Everyday I count my blessings."
'I've had a good run'
By noon the plates have been cleared and the kitchen, as if by magic, is already clean. Students reluctantly push their chairs back from the table and say their goodbyes.
"Barbara, you gave us so much fun," Lucy Lorenzen says with a wistful smile before wrapping Fenzl in a warm embrace.
Minutes later Sherry Cameron and Danielle Hanson also rise, pausing to take a photo with Fenzl and Guerithault.
"We owe our culinary life to you, Barbara!" Cameron says as they also hug Fenzl.
When the students have gone, Fenzl revisits the dozens of framed articles hanging on the walls and hallways of the central Phoenix home she and her husband have shared with hundreds of students for 36 years. There are a handful of clippings from local newspapers, glossy spreads from issues of Bon Appetit, Wine Spectator and the Chicago Tribune.
One of Fenzl's favorite clips: an advertisement for Food Arts Magazine, featuring her photo alongside culinary celebrities including Robert Mondavi, Wolfgang Puck, Jeremiah Tower, Craig Claiborne and John Mariani.
"Can you believe it," she says, staring at it with an amused smile, as if she still can't herself.
"I've had a good run."

Personal experiences are at the heart of all we do at Intervoice. In this section we share some of the inspiring stories we have read about in our work.
A new analysis of the hearing voices experience outside the illness model resulted in accepting and making sense of voices. This study of 50 stories forms the evidence for this successful new approach to working with voice hearers.
The voice-hearers featured in this exciting collection come from across the world. Their stories are inspiring, enlightening and – most importantly – honest. It is a must for anyone interested in human experience, resilience and the potential to survive intense, and sometimes overwhelming, experiences.
For over 10 years Andreas Gehrke fought with intrusive voices from heaven and hell. In more than 15 psychotic episodes they held him in their power.
This book is an amazingly precise and enlightening account of his struggles with his frightening world of voices – and his escape from his "cage of fear".
In this moving account, Eleanor Longden tells her own story of recovery and discovery: her journey through the psychiatric system; from being told she would have more chance of recovering if she had cancer; to becoming an award winning psychologist working in mental health.
In the DVD Eleanor talks candidly about her experience of abuse, self harm and voice-hearing.
This DVD is challenging, inspirational and full of hope for people who have these types of experiences, their families, friends and workers.
I am 48 years old and have been living with schizophrenia for 30 years. I currently work as a recovery specialist in a peer center. The idea of beining honest about my experience and understanding is liberating.
I hear voices, and I'm 48 years old un married with no children. I live with my parents and I was once a very high achiever. Top of my class, 3 sport athlete, and an artist in creating song lyrics and guitar music composition. The voices have crippled me and I have become very anti social. All I can really tell you in light of a positive solution to your son's condition, is keep trying to get him involved in anything you can think of. With no responsabilities, and no one needing you for anything, people become totally docile and afraid that the voices will use any and every inter action with other people to exploit the incredible amount of disappointment that comes with this condition. First and formost, you must understand that for centuries all humans who have ever complained of hearing voices have automatically been labeled as crazy.
I have had a similar experience to your son, in regards to high academic achievement, high IQ and am a degreed scientist. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia but it is onset only with my intense anxiety (fear). My medication is not effective at curbing this particular side effect of my illness.
I am trying to compare my own experiences with someone who is intellectually similar to me. Does he experience any experiences with sleep deprivation, paranoia about government, clicking of teeth, or doing anything strange with keyboard/cell phone, etc.? As you can see from my writing, in spite of my diagnosis, I have relatively little side effects verbally. I don't believe in aliens or anything either 🙂 Anyway, it's a long shot, but it is striking how similar his symptoms are to mine and I thought it was worth a shot to see if any of the (above) symptoms listed correspond to his illness.
I find it easy to talk to someone you can really trust like a very close friend and I'm lucky to have very close friend, who works as a charity manageress. When I first told about the good and the horrible voices she was very understanding about the whole thing I was going though because the charity deals with people of all ages with mental heath issues emotionally. I have being going since 2008 and every time she sees there she'll ask if I'd like to talk to her in private, which always put me ease. If she can help me in anyway, she'll defiantly do her best. If the voices are horrible she'll let me stay in the her private room, until I feel safe around other people in the living/dinning room.
Thank you for letting tell you all this, as it's something I don't like sharing this with others.
The voice in your head or voices as we all call them. Are the most misunderstood and probably one of the true myths of our society. Every creature or I should say living thing on planet earth hears a voice. That is the only way God can tell all his creations what there suppose to be doing. If he doesn't tell a plant or an animal to drink then that living organizm will die.
If he doesn't want that living organizm to live then he doesn't tell it what it needs to do to survive. Just realize that when people talk about God or the Great Spirit, The father the son, and the holy Ghost, they are refering to one in the same the creator and the puppet master of all living things. Even the ones that can't be seen by the human eye, they still must be programed to do whatever they are told to do inorder for them to survive.
I'm not a religious person and I don't attend church. But I know with absolute certainty that there is a power much greater then anything any human will ever be able to understand. I've been suffering with the knowledge I've obtained from the voice I hear in my head for 11 years now. I know they will never go away, because they have been telling me for a decade that they were hear to take everything away from me, and even though I did my best to keep trying and refused to accept the message they keep sending. They are way beyond the point of coincidence, and I've lost everything inside me. Inantomate objects come and go, but you will never get your self-confidence, your belief, your faith, or find your true calling in this life, unless the voices go away and tell you what you need to be doing before they leave. Good luck, I'm crazy so don't read to much into what I say.
I'm not sure that you are crazy, in fact. The points that you posit are entirely possible, though difficult to observe. I don't think anyone has the right to tell you you're wrong until they have firm evidence that you are wrong, do you?
No parle vous Francais, however I would like to hear more about your story if you receive this message. I too believe there is such a thing as a brain implant and would like to know more about who you think it works. Do you experience sleep deprivation, paranoia about government, clicking or grinding teeth, use keyboard or cell phone for other qwerty communications?
I had the theory that anything was possible if I just worked, tried hard enough to get there. Coming from a family background that made me somehow 'different,' having a parent who was often suicidal and raging, but frequently loving meant I had a lot of stories and nightmares I just couldn't talk about that were related to her trauma, made possibility like a thick brick wall of no entry. I felt alienated most of my life. I got into abusive relationships because I didn't think there was much else to have. I felt I had to learn to be more like those who controlled me, so I could be better accepted. Then, I started to hear voices and felt like I had company that while not often friendly at least focused on me, rather than ignoring my existence.
I find it strange that our society can discuss symbolism of movies and art in detail. I can study the science of emotions via Method Acting, yet mainstream mental health services and the community freak out and yell at me when I've expressed something outside the range of their understood sense. They would afford music and visual art so much more time than they would a human being like me going through an emotional upheaval triggered by abuse and loss.
My first memoir was written while studying Professional Writing and Editing at RMIT. Because I found psychiatric medications harmful rather than helpful I did not receive a publisher. But since I got training in Desktop publishing from RMIT, I was able to make my book myself and sell 'Percipience, outside the range of understood sense' on Amazon in 2009 in-between hospitalisations for 'psychosis.' I had already written the book, so it was not a big effort to do the manual labour of publishing while suffering effects of neuroleptics. I then wrote 'Naked ladies' about the episodes I had after my father's death and feelings of continuing alienation and denial from my society. I then went to study illustration at university, but the pressure of full time study, no deep human connections and denial of my ability as a writer put me into another hospitalisation. This was my worst episode.
'Naked ladies' was published with Chipmunka in 2012 and since meeting my partner, going to hearing voices groups, gaining employment and getting off the CTO and neuroleptics I have studied Art Therapy, felt my experiences validated and have much anchoring me to reality, much that accepts me and does not ask to 'try harder' and 'change' to suit others. It can be really confusing when people say something doesn't 'make sense' because they are afraid, ignorant, or discriminating. It can really make a person wonder what reality is and wonder what it is they have to do to make others satisfied.
I have written another book, 'Importance' that I have sent out to some Australian publishers. They are not ready for what I have to say. They don't want to understand it. They want to publish books by Doctors who apparently have 'authority' over my experiences.
I also self-publish a series called, 'Beings.' It is automatic art put into comic book format. The way I sketch is without cognition, straight from the mind's-eye from the feeling. The conscious part of me doesn't know what image will appear. The end result in books is a psychological journey in picture and thought-bubbles of societies questions and my reactions in senses, in feelings. If you don't like reading words much, I think this kind of book is great to flick through.

such as at Memorial Bridge and 3 sisters.

Tom was a spectacular host, and we had an amazing time. Tom was our captain, and helped ensure that we and our friends had a wonderful evening grilling and enjoying the water on the Potomac watching a gorgeous sunset from the Lincoln Memorial. If you're looking to take your friends out on the water for a fun day or evening, we strongly endorse Tom and his team!
Just great and very professional. Tom was our captain on our 'last summer day' cruise around D.C. The boat is well maintained, offers BBQs and coolers on the sun-deck and all comfort you need for a day trip. Tom is very familiar with the very hidden best spots on the Potomac and the boat can go, where few others can. Our group fully enjoyed the day with our captain on the Potomac. Five star captain and boat. Thanks a lot- we will come back next year.
Wow! If I needed to write a one-word summary of the experience that day, that's what it would be - wow! Tom was not just a competent captain, but the consummate host. He said he would be an unobtrusive host, but as it turned out, he made the day for all of us. The day started with a bit higher wind than any of us would like, but Tom simply adjusted the agenda accordingly. We stayed most of the day above Georgetown near Three Sisters. Then, when it came time to throw the steaks on the grill, Tom stepped-in (happily) and took over the cooking duty. The water quality was very good that day so we spent a lot of time in the water and Tom has all the toys. If you don't like the toys so much, you can always do what I did; a cannonball off the top deck. I would go back again just to have steaks grilled on his awesome grill. I could not recommend Tom any higher. And, I would add that if you are contemplating being the captain yourself, I recommend that you just relax and leave the driving (and the cooking) to Tom.
tom was great! he was very flexible and accommodating to this newbie. he took us to the perfect spots for what we wanted that day and helpful in every regard. will definitely hit up tom again in the future.
This was the greatest boat ride ever. Tom was an awesome Captain. He took us all over, to see the planes fly overhead, by Lincoln Memorial, past Georgetown and more. We went to a rope swing up the river and swung a bunch of times too!
His boat is fantastic. With a huge deck on top, we had so much space for everyone in the group. We grilled burgers and hot dogs, had plenty of cooler space, and danced all day to the incredible sound system. The bathroom was clean and convenient, and there is also plenty of space downstairs if you wanted to sleep over.
We went out for a friend's 25th birthday, and we will be sure to do this again next year. I have raved to everyone I know about how awesome this day was, and everyone needs to experience the Potomac like this!! HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend.
I chartered Captain Tom and the Catamaran Cruiser for an eight hour Sunday cruise with a bunch of my closest friends and we had the best time ever!!! Captain Tom was easy to get a hold of and kept in touch with me with coordinating when and where to meet up. After we got on board we had a quick safety briefing and got right to having fun. Captain Tom drove us past the Lincoln Memorial and suggested he take a picture of the whole group and I am so thankful he did! We rode past the Georgetown Waterfront and Captain Tom picked a perfect spot for us to anchor and jump in the water. He threw out a huge raft for us to use and we also made use of his paddle board. Captain Tom made delicious daiquiris for our whole group and also served them to those of us still in the water. We grilled burgers and dogs on the top deck grill and it went off without a hitch. Sound system was awesome and made for a real party atmosphere. On the way back to the marina Captain Tom made a surprise stop at Gravelly Point Park (never been before). We watched the planes fly right over our heads and land at National airport. Seeing this from the top deck of the boat, I'm sure was the best view at the park. It was AMAZING and quite a rush. Our group loves to travel and plan activities but this was by far the most fun thing we've done all summer! Thanks Captain Tom!!
Tom is very easy to work with and does what he can to ensure your have a great day on the boat. The boat itself is great. Lots of space and the upper deck area is perfect for grilling and just relaxing. There is a kayak and stand-up paddle board for use as well. The sound system is powerful enough to serenade everyone near you on the river. You won't regret spending a day on this boat.
Tom was great to work with! He was flexible with our float plan and even drove us to our first anchorage spot. His house boat is a great change from your typical power boat and was the perfect vessel for a nice day out on the waters. It can hold a ton of people comfortably and most of the time, everyone was lounging on the floats provided anyway. Great boat with great amenities (as listed in his description) - highly recommend!

Q: Best way to know if http request is GET or POST with DPKT? I'm using the function dpkt.http.Request(), but sometimes the http flow is not a request.
Is there a quick way in python or dpkt to know if my request is GET or POST?

A: Try parsing it as a HTTP request and catch dpkt.UnpackError so your program doesn't die if it's not a HTTP request.
If no exception was thrown, you can use .method of the Request object to get the method that was used.

A: >>> import dpkt
>>> r = dpkt.Request('GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n')

Finding the HTTP verb is easy:
>>> r.method
"GET"

If there is difficulty parsing the HTTP request data, then it is impossible to get the original source data back because of how the dpkt.Request.unpack method handles exceptions.
As a workaround something like this may be handy:
>>> data = 'GET / HTT' #malformed request
>>> try:
...     r = dpkt.Request(data)
... except dpkt.UnpackError:
...     print data.split()[0]
...
'GET'

James Milner put on Euro alert
MARTIN O'Neill says he cannot afford to underestimate Litex Lovech tomorrow as he gets ready to unleash record buy James Milner for only his second start in Villa colours since his return to the club.
Mat Kendrick
The boss says there is a "balancing act" between resting his senior players and picking a team good enough not to allow a repeat of the Carling Cup exit on the European stage.
O'Neill still refuses to accept that a weakened side, containing six changes from the team who have played all six Premier League matches, was behind the 1-0 defeat to QPR.
Carlos Cuellar and Milner will definitely come into the team for tomorrow's UEFA Cup second-leg clash, with Moustapha Salifou also a likely starter.
"I don't think for one minute that we treated the QPR game lightly,'' O'Neill said.
"I think we should have won that match. If you had asked me would I have taken a 3-1 lead before tomorrow's game then of course I would have.
"We are in a great position but we won't treat the game lightly as the game can change.
"We could go a goal down within 10 minutes, they could score a second and you could be in trouble.
"We are going to try and avoid that if at all possible. The most important thing is keeping positive ourselves. Some players need to be playing but at the same time it's important we have a balancing act.
"Whatever side we put out will be strong. Every one of these boys will be playing in the Premier League this season.
"My expectations of the squad are such that I expect the players to come in and do really well.
"Salifou, who was unlucky not to be in the squad for the QPR game, has a really good chance of playing but we will see how people are.
"There are people crying out for games, desperate to get a chance to play. Sometimes it can happen, sometimes it can't.
"I don't think I'm going to be judging everyone on the QPR gane but collectively we need to get through this game.
"This is why we came back early in July so we have to be right."
Craig Gardner, Marlon Harewood, Brad Guzan, Zat Knight, Wayne Routledge and Isaiah Osbourne also come into the fray.
But it is Milner who has arguably most to win as he sets about trying to break into O'Neill's first team in the Premier League.
"James will definitely play in the game. I thought his contribution against Sunderland was superb,'' O'Neill said. "As I have said before, he will be a major player for us in the future. It's the same with Carlos Cuellar – these guys are good players."

11 Months, But Who's Counting?
Yes, indeed it has been 11 months since Michele has handed over the reigns to me. She has been a bit stingy of late and not allowed me to share with everyone my view of the world.
My favorite mommy's birthday was a few weeks ago. Michele hung up this really cool streamer stuff but she was mean and wouldn't let me chew on it. I really like chewing on stuff. It's fun and it drives my mommies crazy. But, I did manage to get my choppers on a few strands. It made me sick but it was oh so much fun.
My favorite mommy loves to decorate the house for Christmas. For over a week, she kept going down into the mysterious place known as the basement. She left the door open just a little bit and I managed to pull it open the rest of the way. Tali and I went looking for her. Tali wasn't worried about Mommy like I was, so she went off exploring the dark corners of the basement. I, on the other hand, knew my Mommy needed me. I found her outside in front of the garage. I thought she would be happy to see me but instead she started yelling at me. I don't like it when she yells at me, so I turned around and ran away from her. She chased me back to the stairs and yelled at Tali too. She made us go back up the stairs and shut the door on us. I don't know why she was so mad. I was only coming to help her. I think I might not go down there again, it was really cold outside.
Tali told me the basement had lots of great climbing places but she doesn't like to be yelled at either. We decided it wasn't worth it so now we don't try so hard to go in the basement…at least for now. I do sit at the door and beg though 'cause I know it drives both of my mommies crazy.
Even worse than getting yelled at was the day Mommy hid all of our favorite toys. We hadn't done anything bad but she hid them anyway. She even took our houses and sheet. I was not happy. Tali was devastated. I never heard her howl like that in all my life. Worked a charm though. It scared Mommy and she gave us back our houses and sheet. It did, however, take a little begging to get our toys back. She still has some hidden but at least she gave Tali back her favorite green fish.
They took my favorite toy away for good a few weeks ago. They left it out where I could get it and I had so much fun eating the stretchy part. Chopped it into a bunch of pieces too. Both mommies got scared and ran all over the house looking for the little bits of stretchy stuff. That scared me. But, they seemed calmer when they found all the little bits. They called me dumb and that hurt my feelings. I think they were real worried that I would get sick or something. Even still, that was no reason to take my toy away and call me names. I really liked that toy. Maybe they'll give me another one for Christmas. I know Michele has one just like it hidden in her room.
The white squirrels have recently wandered back to our yard. They seem to travel throughout the neighborhood and don't stay in just one place. I really like the white squirrels because I can see them so much better than the gray ones.
I like to sit on Michele's desk, swish my tail and challenge them. I like the squirrels but I hate crows. They make so much noise and thump when they land on the roof. I'd eat one up if I could ever catch it. They just better stay out of our yard if they know what's good for them.
Guess that's all for now. Hopefully Michele won't make me wait so long before I can post again.

Thank you so much for the Harper and Tali update! We are so pleased to hear how the "sisters" are doing and the pictures of Harper are stunning! Harper was always such a conversationalist and singer! Tali was always such a little nimble acrobat, as if gravity didn't apply!
Hapi here. Oh Robert and Gail. I am so happy that you found us this forever home with Michele and her Mom. They love us so much. They don't let us drink out of a sink like you did but other than that, they're really nice to us. I even have my own bed!
Tali's still the acrobat. If there's a big noise in the house, it's usually that little brat getting into trouble. She can be so bad.
My new mommy talks to me every morning. And I greet Michele with a bunch of meows and fall over on my site. She's finally figured out that when I do that I want to play. Michele's my favorite playmat. She's so much fun. But, she is mean and won't let me eat the string on the toys.

Q: change range of letters in a specific column I want to change in column 11 these characters
!"#$%&'()*+,-.\/0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJ

for these characetrs:
@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\\]^_`abcdefghi

so, if I have in column 11 000@!, it should be PPP_@. I tried awk:
awk '{a = gensub(/[@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\\]^_`abcdefghi]/, /[!\"\#$%&'\''()*+,-.\/0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJ]/, "g", $11); print a }' file.txt

but it does not work...

A: Try Perl.
perl -lane '$F[10] =~ y/!"#$%&'"'"'()*+,-.\/0-9:;<=>?@A-J/@A-Z[\\]^_`a-i/;
    print join(" ", @F)'

I am assuming by "column 11" you mean a string of several characters after the tenth run of successive whitespace, which is what the -a option splits on by default (basically to simulate Awk).  Unfortunately, changes to the array @F do not show up in the output directly, so you have to reconstruct the output line from (the modified) @F, which will normalize the field delimiter to just a single space.

A: Just change f = 2 to f = 11:
$ cat tst.awk
BEGIN {
    f = 2
    old = "!\"#$%&'()*+,-.\\/0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJ"
    new = "@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\\\\]^_`abcdefghi"
    n = length(old)
    for (i=1; i<=n; i++) {
        map[substr(old,i,1)] = substr(new,i,1)
    }
}
{
    n = length($f)
    newStr = ""
    for (i=1; i<=n; i++) {
        oldChar = substr($f,i,1)
        newStr = newStr (oldChar in map ? map[oldChar] : oldChar)
    }
    $f = newStr
    print
}

$ cat file
a 000@! b

$ awk -f tst.awk file
a PPP_@ b

Note that you have to escape "s and \s in strings.

Porphyrogenitus: Where Have All the Flower Children Gone?
Porphyrogenitus notices that no human shields seem to be packing for Iraq.
I figured that if anything was deserving of such protection as having a ring of human shields to prevent bombing, it might be a Red Cross facility dedicated to succoring the Iraqi people.
Remember them? Although a number left Iraq, disgusted that Saddam wanted them to shield things like power plants and airfields instead of hospitals and schools, I'd think that they would be ALL OVER this. Isn't protecting things like the Red Cross from violence used for political effect EXACTLY the sort of thing they claim to stand for?


I was 17 once. I hung around with good kids, not so good kids and very bad kids. Teens heavily influence one another in ways that can have a direct impact on their futures. When you are young and new to the world, you are seeking out how things are supposed to be. Your gauge is guided by what your parents have become, but kids don't often think their parents are smart enough to make the right decisions. So even if the kids' parents are great, the kid may rebel and do stupid things.
At a young age, a kid that seems to have his act together by his peers, may become a leader. That kid may be a great influencer but may not have his act together at all. He may be a leader, but a blind one. As the saying goes, the blind leading the blind.
When I was a kid, I saw this. Teens I ran with thought behavior like this was "cool". Fortunately for me, I didn't see the fun in that kind of behavior. I think I got lucky. Today, many of those kids I ran with are messed up, dead or in jail. When young and impressionable, even a good kid can go bad when with the wrong crowd. And for the rest of his life he will pay the penalty. My parents were great. As good a parent as you may be, your kid can get caught up in something like this. Have you talked to your kid today?
Desperate people do desperate things. A home burglary is a desperate act. And when the burglar wants to absolutely, positively cover his tracks, he may torch the house.
It's a troubling crime pattern and Syracuse Police are asking for the public's help. In the past two weeks there have seven burglaries near the Syracuse University area. In two cases, after the homes were ransacked the burglar set them on fire. No one was inside the two homes at the time of the fires.
When a home is broken into the burglars almost always steal something. Sometimes they break in just to "party" or need a place to hang out or crash for the night. Other times it's for vandalism and they generally do a pretty good job of destroying the property when they set their minds to it. With home invasions it's often to torture the residents and make them miserable. This is certainly the worst case scenario for the homeowner.
But breaking in and burning it is probably the most destructive of all tactics. When a person's home is entered without authorization, people generally feel a sense of violation they don't easily get over. For a dozen reasons a person should make certain their home is as secure as possible. To prevent any of the above acts, one needs to invest in their home security.
Robert Siciliano personal security expert to Home Security Source discussing burglar proofing your home on Fox Boston.
Every day I scan the news for stories to report on. My job is to disseminate information in a way that is easily digestible and makes sense. Hopefully the reader will act on what they learn and make better decisions to protect themselves and their families.
The man's wife, whom he's been married to for almost six decades, lies in the hospital. The victim says the suspect broke a window in the bedroom and appeared in their living room around 10:30pm Sunday night as they watched television. "He grabbed me around the neck, and said he would cut my throat if I didn't do what he said," said the husband.
THEY WERE JUST WATCHING TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any time his wife made a noise showing her fear, the suspect came back to the bedroom. "She was making noise and he didn't want her making noise, he would kick her hard." The victim's wife was transported to Methodist Hospital in the Medical Center due to brain swelling from being kicked by the suspect. Her husband tells us they will monitor her overnight and she may be able to go home on Tuesday.
Locking your doors isn't enough. Locking your windows isn't enough. In order to prevent a crime like this the homeowner needs a comprehensive home security review. Bring in the local police to give your home a once over. Invite a local locksmith to determine what the best locks for your doors are. Call a home alarm installer to discuss a home security system. Consider taking it up a notch and installing home security cameras. Consider a do it yourself wireless home alarm system or hire a professional. But please, whatever you do, do something. The worst thing you can do is nothing.


Econometrics involve the formulation of mathematical models to represent real-world economic systems, whether the whole economy, or an industry, or an individual business. Econometric modeling is used to analyze complex market trends (the demand function) to determine the variables driving the growth or shrinkage of demand for a product or service. Econometric models are used to decipher the economic forces that affect supply and costs (the supply function) within an industry. Few companies really understand the external forces that drive their industries, their companies, or their brands. Understanding these forces provides the foundation for strategy development and business planning.
Times-series analysis, cross-sectional time-series analysis, structural-equation modeling, input-output analysis, Markov-chain analysis, and multiple regression are some of the techniques used in econometric modeling. Many other statistical and mathematical tools are employed as well, depending on the nature of the econometric task, in the development of econometric models.
Marketing mix modeling is one application of econometric modeling, wherein all marketing inputs are modeled over time to arrive at an optimal allocation of marketing inputs. For example, what is the correct amount to spend on television advertising compared to the radio or the Web? Should a company invest money in more salespeople or in more advertising? What is the impact of promotional spending?
Demand forecasting is another econometric application. For example, econometric analyses reveal that the growth in the number of women working in the U.S. played a major role in the growth of the restaurant industry from 1950 to 2000. But other variables were at work too. Rising incomes made eating out more affordable. Rising car ownership, especially among teenagers and college students, translated into greater restaurant sales. Understanding the variables that underlie demand makes it possible to forecast an industry's future.
The ultimate application of econometrics is the creation of a comprehensive model of a market, an industry, or a company, so that the interaction of all economic variables can be understood and predicted. A DecisionSimulator™ can be constructed so that senior executives can explore many different "what if" scenarios as the business environment changes. If the price of oil spikes, how will it affect your company? How should your company respond? If interest rates rise sharply, what will be the effect on your business in six months?
Econometrics provides powerful tools to help companies predict and manage the future.

Translation & Interpreting
What is an Online Study in Translation & Interpreting?
part of Journalism & Media
Translation and interpreting involves converting the meaning of written or spoken content from one language to another. While translation deals with written materials, interpreting refers to oral translation or through sign language. Professionals in the field have advanced knowledge of the languages used, but they also need to understand properly the subject matter of the translation.
Translators work with various documents including literary texts, web copy, reports, legal papers, instructional guides, brochures and more. Interpreters facilitate communication in different contexts such as international conferences and events, business meetings, video seminars, or criminal justice proceedings.
Interpreting and translation relates to disciplines such as language studies, linguistics, comparative literature and cultural studies. Professionals often have to work with other diverse areas, depending on the subject area of the material they are required to translate or interpret.
Universities usually offer a study programmes focusing on one central language paired with English. There are also various specialisations within the field including literary translation, conference and community interpreting, intercultural service in healthcare, multilingual organisational communication or interpreting and translation for international business.
Example roles for future translators and interpreters include editors and proof-writers, language analysts, and also translators and interpreters in specific fields such as business, law, medicine or public services.

A MAN who was aggressive and abusive towards staff at a County Limerick Hotel was fined €450 for public order offences.
Oskaras Pavydis, 45, who has an address at Arra View, Newcastle West pleaded guilty at the local court to a number of charges relating to an incident at the Longcourt House Hotel on October 16, last.
Superintendent John Deasy said gardai attended the hotel at around 9.30pm and that when they arrived they encountered the defendant in the reception area.
"He was very abusive, he was shouting and roaring. He was agitated and aggressive," he said adding there were other members of the public in the hotel at the time.
Solicitor John Lynch said his client had eaten at the hotel earlier in the evening and had become angry when he was refused a drink having paid for his meal.
He told the court his client had a number of drinks with his meal but insisted he was "not highly intoxicated" and wanted to know why he was refused more alcohol.
He said Mr Pavydis had demanded to speak with a manager and that the gardai were contacted when he refused to leave the hotel.
Judge Mary Larkin said the defendant's reaction was inexcusable and she commented that his reactions was "not a normal response".
Noting his guilty plea and his previous good record, she imposed fines totalling €450.

Now that the new full length album "ReTurn Of The Century" is avalable to the masses (get yours HERE!) you're going to start seeing & hearing little bits & pieces of vital information regarding the upcoming limited edition Record Store Day release of "I'm Your Goon" – an aggressive surf rock & roll number that got left off of the "ReTurn Of The Century" album because of it's overt aggression and punchiness. We felt that it didn't really fit in the track list of the album since "ReTurn Of The Century" has such an up-beat feel throughout, and "I'm Your Goon" is more on the 'dark side' of things.
The flip side of the record has a tongue-in-cheek electric rockabilly number called "Guilty Conscience" that was recorded at Edmonton's own Sound Extractor Studio by Stew Kirkwood. It was recorded in between the sessions for "Accentuate Everything" and the sessions for "ReTurn Of The Century" in late 2012. We love the way this song was recorded, and were saving it for a rainy day… And, well… It must be raining now.
*** "I'm Your Goon / Guilty Conscience" will be available April 19th, 2014 and every day after that until they're all gone. Get it while you can!

Manila, 7 November 2017 – Filipino animator Gini Santos visited her home country on Nov. 6 to 7 to celebrate the upcoming release of Disney•Pixar's Coco, for which Santos served as Supervising Animator – the first ever woman in Pixar's history to hold the position.
Born in Pasay City in the Philippines, Santos moved to Guam with her family when she was 3 years old. She then returned to her home country years later to study at St. Scholastica's College (high school) and University of Santo Tomas (UST), where she graduated with a degree in Fine Arts with a major in Advertising.
Hired by Pixar Animation Studios in 1996, Santos worked on many critically praised Pixar films, including the Academy Award®-winning Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, and Up.
"The welcome's been amazing. After all the hard work we've done for Coco, to be recognized as a Filipino who worked on the film, which has gotten great response, has been amazing," said Santos, who was back home to meet the local media.
At the special advanced screening for Coco on Nov. 6 at Newport Cinemas in Newport Mall, Resorts World Manila, Santos was presented with a plaque of appreciation by the city of Pasay "for being an exemplary citizen of Pasay City," where she and her family lived before moving to Guam. The award was presented to her by City Administrator Atty. Dennis Acorda, representing Mayor Antonio Calixto.
At the same event, Santos was also awarded by the Original Pilipino Performing Arts (OPPA) Foundation with a plaque of recognition by OPPA President Menchu Lauchengco-Yulo. OPPA is a foundation that aims to support aspiring Filipino artists by providing them with opportunities that will improve their knowledge and craft.
Gini Santos shares her expertise with the student attendees of her animation workshop.
Disney•Pixar's Coco opens in Philippine cinemas on Nov. 22, 2017, alongside Walt Disney Animation Studios' 21-minute featurette Olaf's Frozen Adventure.
Despite his family's baffling generations-old ban on music, Miguel (voice of Anthony Gonzalez) dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol, Ernesto de la Cruz (voice of Benjamin Bratt). Desperate to prove his talent, Miguel finds himself in the stunning and colorful Land of the Dead following a mysterious chain of events. Along the way, he meets charming trickster Héctor (voice of Gael García Bernal), and together, they set off on an extraordinary journey to unlock the real story behind Miguel's family history. Directed by Lee Unkrich (Toy Story 3), co-directed by Adrian Molina (story artist Monsters University) and produced by Darla K. Anderson (Toy Story 3), Disney•Pixar's Coco opens in Philippine theaters on Nov. 22, 2017.

From almost 200mph to studies of tooth decay: MO brings an unusual lifestyle blend to Red Bull KTM but the Ajo crew could have landed themselves another title contender – meet Miguel Oliveira.
Sandro Cortese, Luis Salom and Jack Miller have all left some hot boots behind in the factory Red Bull KTM Ajo team in Moto3, and trying the footwear for size in 2015 will be 20 year old Miguel Oliveira. The youngster has sprayed podium champagne for two different manufacturers in the past four years and was a previous target for Team Manager Aki Ajo before the dedicated Fin finally snared his man for this season to replace the MotoGP-bound Miller. If Rossi is the 'The Doctor' then Oliveira could be the 'The Dentist'. Or at least this is how he spends his spare time when not sharing centimetres of track space. The Portuguese is endlessly studying and is a busy guy.
Those who have kept a watch on '44's progress – Portugal's sole threat for MotoGP glory – know that Oliveira is a potent threat in what is sure to be another frantically contested battle of the 250s this year. We decided to give Miguel a call after a day of work at the Jerez test last week to find out a bit more about his settling-in period with Orange.
How much time have you clocked on the race bike and how did it feel being on it the first time?
With the Mahindra for the past two years you were in development as well as racing so will it be a change for you to jump on machinery that has been going for the title since the dawn of Moto3?
How long did it take to make the KTM 'yours'? What was the biggest change you had to do?
Honda upped their game in 2014. Have you been told about improvements to the KTM race machine for 2015?
How does it feel to be part of that team? It is a real factory effort with a direct and close link to Mattighofen and the rest of KTM where there is a lot of success in terms of Motocross, Rally, Dakar, Supercross?
Is the timing of the move good for you? You've been in Moto3 for a couple of years now and have four podiums to your name; at least one trophy for the last three seasons in a row?
It seems that you have two spotlights on you. One because of your nationality and two because you are taking on a challenge that has been met by riders from Cortese to Miller each year. High profile guys. I know you say this doesn't bring pressure but will it be like a new 'ball game' for you?
A few rapid-fire questions. Favourite track?
Favourite sport aside from racing?
"Benfica! I'm from Lisbon so it has to be them.
" What does '44' do when you're not racing?
So a good few years left ahead at university?
Follow Miguel Oliveira on Facebook!

KIN (BRON/Headline Pictures) is a new Irish crime drama in which a boy is killed and his family embarks on a gangland war with an international cartel: a war that is impossible to win. The Kinsellas are a local crime family, while the Cunningham cartel is a vast global organization. It is David and Goliath. Out-numbered, out-financed and out-gunned, the Kinsellas find themselves holed up in their Dublin stronghold while their businesses fail and family members and associates are picked off. But they have something the cartel does not: the unbreakable bonds of blood and family. With a "murderer's row" of fantastic Irish actors populating the series, the acting ensemble brings their A game to Kin. Clare Dunne as Michael's sister-in-law, Amanda, delivers a volcanic performance as the emotional center of a story highlighting the unsaid and devastating aspects of marriage and family amidst a dangerous criminal underworld.

Google Cloud Partners hopeful on new program, but seek advances
Google's bid to sort its partner initiative is viewed as a positive development among the company's partners, some of which are heavily focusing on the cloud provider's platform.
Paul Korzeniowski
Google is one of the world's most recognized brands and influential tech companies. Yet, the technology giant has had a relatively small presence in the channel. Recently, it has been laying the foundation for a major surge. On July 1, Google brought together numerous channel initiatives under the Google Cloud Partner Advantage Program.
"During the last few years, Google invested substantial resources and people with the goal of significantly growing its channel programs," said Steve White, program vice president, channels and alliances at IDC.
While Google has been a top player in many markets, its reseller programs have been relatively modest. Microsoft has more than 300,000 partners worldwide, AWS about 70,000 and Google less than 20,000, White noted.
Partner program consolidation
Historically, Google has seemingly treated the channel as an afterthought -- at best. "Google got rid of the Google Search Appliance without providing a path forward for partners or their customers," said Aric Bandy, president at Agosto Inc., a Google Cloud Premier Partner based in Minneapolis. Google disclosed its plan to phase out the appliance in 2016.
Working with the company was challenging. "Historically, like many vendors, Google had many products, and each had its own distinct partner program," White said.
Such confusion frustrates channel partners. They want one clear path into the company and a consistent set of metrics that determine how they will be compensated.
In response, Google Cloud Partner Advantage Program consolidates 16 autonomous, organically developed partner agreements into one consistent suite.
In addition, the vendor created areas of specialization for Google Cloud partners. Those specializations range from cloud migration and enterprise collaboration to machine learning and security. Each area is associated with one or a few Google products. For instance, enterprise collaboration features the G Suite office productivity package.
As a result, Google Cloud partners can now develop niche expertise. Partners with specialization status have undergone a technical assessment, employ certified personnel, demonstrate repeatable customer success and plan to invest in their particular specialization, according to Google.
Better partner support is another change. Navigating the $136.8 billion vendor's hierarchy can be challenging for an outsider. Previously, Google support staff was called upon depending on what type of solution the partner was selling to a potential client. Now, the partner has a dedicated advisor, someone who checks in with them on a regular basis and acts as a guide helping them ferret out needed Google resources.
Partners go all-in with Google
Google Cloud partners are optimistic about the changes. "Google has said that, moving forward, it will be 100% channel-focused in serving its business customers," noted Jason Lee, a partner and founder at Maven Wave, a Chicago-based company that launched in 2008. The 320-employee company is a Google Cloud Premier Partner.
Google is vying for cloud market position -- and partner mindshare -- among rivals such as AWS, IBM and Microsoft.
Some partners have gone all-in with Google. SADA Systems Inc., a Los Angeles-based Google Cloud Premier Partner, began working with Google in 2006. "Our Nicky Parseghian, [SADA's G Suite practice director], was one of the first individuals to receive Google certification and helped them create the content for other certification programs," said Narine Galstian, chief marketing officer at SADA.
The relationship has been expanding. SADA started out focusing on small and midmarket companies. "During the last three to four years, we've grown to serve enterprise customers, like Colgate, Citrix and the TVG Network," Galstian said. The work has been so successful that SADA sold its Microsoft practice to Core BTS in March 2019 to focus on Google.
Agosto, which launched in 2001, has worked with AWS, Cisco, IBM, Microsoft and NetApp, and operated a managed service provider division. The channel partner teamed up with Google in 2007 and divested itself of all other partner programs in December 2014.
Google Cloud partners cite room for improvement
While Google is making progress with its partners, more improvements would be helpful. First, the company could enhance its market position. "We would like to see the Google Cloud Platform climb up a few spots in the enterprise public cloud market," Galstian said.
The cloud provider also needs to expand its technical community. "AWS and Microsoft have spent much longer times developing certified engineers, so they have a deeper bench of individuals who understand how to manage their solutions," Agosto's Bandy explained.
The reality is that the size and scale of the program that Google hopes to attain is going to demand that they add more channels partners.
Jason LeePartner and founder, Maven Wave
Purchasing and supporting programs tailored to high-end enterprises would also be beneficial. "Today, Google does not have an enterprise buying agreement, but I would expect the company to move in that direction in the future," Bandy added.
While the evolution of Google's channel initiative continues, Google Cloud partners can expect to see more companies following their footsteps. An emphasis on building up the channel may create more competition.
"The reality is that the size and scale of the program that Google hopes to attain is going to demand that they add more channels partners," Maven Wave's Lee concluded. "Current Google partners need to accept that reality because with it also comes opportunities for them to close more deals."

You can read the article and see that it is some clever chemistry and engineering, but with no/none/zilch/nada-chance that this will ever make it to a grocery store near you. Of ALL the items in a grocery store, milk takes the cake for being the most price sensitive. Ground beef is a close second, but most stores end up selling milk for no profit, or even for a loss, just to get people to come into the store. So now these researchers are asking the store to take a bigger hit by paying for this fancy lid?
Furthermore, unlike other foods such as ground beef contaminated with e. coli or cold cuts rife with listeria monocytogenes, spoiled milk will not kill you. It probably won't even make you sick. The smell of spoiled milk should be enough to knock you out, but even if your nose is plugged and you missed the horrific odors, the taste and consistency will certainly have you spitting it out well before you could ever consume a large enough quantity to endanger you. Seriously, have you ever heard of someone dying from spoiled milk?
But there is one place where this technology could be useful: at the dairy farms themselves. Mastitis and other dairy diseases can greatly impact the quality of raw milk and when mixed with larger volumes of milk from healthy cattle, can lead to serious loses. The dairy industry is always in the need of faster and more robust tests and this might fit the bill. But consumers? Forget about it.
