I'm hoping to get a response but I notice no one else got any so I'm guessing negative for mine too. Well anyway. I use your formula #1 and superfood for many years. My surgeon has recommended surgery for a 3mm gallstone and 7mm polyp. I'm worried about the polyp which he says is predestined to become cancerous if not already. I want to do your 5 day cleanse and detox program. Can I start right in or do I clean my colon first. While on the 5 day cleanse protocol can I use the formula No. 1 if I need to? I'm looking at your 2002 herbal product catalog and natural healing manual-has it been updated?
Bob in the Ask Bob and Agnes forum may be able to advise you.
thanks Lapis. I will look for that forum and ask Bob.
First, your body thanks you for using SuperFood and Intestinal Formula #1 for many years.
You can easily dissolve your gallstone with my 5 Day Cleansing and Detoxification Program using the Liver and Gallbladder Flush. It may take a few times but what's the hurry, it could have taken you years to grow that stone.
I am assuming that the polyp is in your colon, would you please clarify that for me. Your doctor is using the old scare tactic, don't panic. Sure a polyp can become cancerous but it can also just as easily be removed and dissolve naturally, it all depend on how you live your life. I have had patients with 30 and 40 polyps simply and easily remove them naturally with my Bowel Detoxification Program using my Intestinal Formula #1 and Intestinal Formula #2. You may have to repeat this entire program once a month for 2 or 3 months but never fear, they will just go away.
It is always better to have a clean colon BEFORE you attempt any Liver and Gallbladder cleansing and flushing. This is simply because when you flush out your Liver and Gallbladder, the poisons, toxins, drug residues, cholesterol, and other material flushes out of your bile ducts into your duodenum and then out through your colon. If you are constipated this material will just sit there and possibly be re-assimilated making you feel awful.
So it is always best to start with a clean bowel but in a Liver or Gallbladder emergency, just flush you Liver and Gallbladder and use the Intestinal Formula #1 at the same time.
No, my 2002 Herbal Products Catalog is the latest, no newer version yet.


Over the years, LR Tech has developed different types of custom detectors, including multi-pixels detectors. Contrarily to conventional arrays, these multi-elements detectors offer a larger pixels size while offering some spatial information. Combined to different fast scanning spectrometer, they allow a better sensitivity which result on an improved detectability, even at a long range target.
These arrays are composed of 64 elements (8X8 pixels) with a total surface area of 3X3 mm. The first array is based on a Photo-voltaic Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) detector with a spectral range of 800 to 5000 cm-1. The second unit developed has a similar configuration, but is based on the Indium Antimonide (InSb) technology which offers an increased sensitivity in the range of 1800 to 5000 cm-1.
These detectors are coupled to an FTS (Fourier Transform Spectrometer) with an appropriate acquisition system which offers a near real time calibrated response of the scene under observation.
The main advantage of such a configuration is that it offers the capability to acquire information about the target as well as the background simultaneously, without any compromise on the sensitivity at a high scanning rate (up to 90 scans/sec. at 16cm-1 spectral resolution).


System and Intel Corporation today announced a major content partnership during the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco. As part of it, the two companies will team up with top reality producer Mark Burnett (Survivor, Shark Tank, The Voice) for America's Greatest Makers (working title), a new TBS original series, which will also feature program extensions on the rest of Turner's portfolio of networks.
A followup to last year's Intel 'Make It Wearable' challenge, the series will feature inventors trying to develop the next big wearable or smart connected consumer device built on the Intel Curie hardware module.
The early stages of the competition, leading up to the announcement of the semifinalists, will be chronicled via content on digital/social media platforms. TBS will then launch the America's Greatest Makers TV series starting with a kick-off special introducing the semifinalist teams.
America's Greatest Makers will be supplemented by short-form content on the other Turner brands, including TNT, Adult Swim, truTV, HLN, CNN and Bleacher Report.
"This is much more than just a linear TV series. This is the next evolution of storytelling, told simultaneously across many platforms and in many different ways. This is the future," Burnett said.

June 27 – July 3 The Rugby Game of the Century…
Imagine a SF 49ers vs Oakland Raiders game being played in Canada. But make that the New Zealand Chiefs and Crusaders rugby teams playing for the first time ever right here in Suva. Both teams have some Fijians players, so just about every Fijian in the country watched it live stream or in the stands. Restaurants and stores were packed and roads were closed so crowds of people could walk to the stadium. It was like Cheyenne Frontiers Days, but by the beach. We joined a group of senior missionaries and sat in the stands in pouring rain.
Fortunately the rain let up right after the game started, and didn't start again until the last few minutes of play. We went home soaked, but it was fun to be a part of history. What an experience!
A highlight that evening was a halftime performance of the traditional Meke. Don't know why the New Zealand teams didn't do their Haka for us, but when the game was over, we all sang the Isa Lei song for the teams.
Meanwhile, back at the institute, we are trying to get a head start on course completion by encouraging students who need to do make up work to do it now instead of waiting until the end of the semester. Lupe and Tetika were the first to turn it in — we love these two!
Helping in the kitchen (and a priesthood blessing from Elder Whitehead) helped Sumeet overcome discouragement as he waits for his mission papers to get through some glitches so they can be sent from here to Salt Lake. Tuesday Jeanette and Lini baked with him. I am so grateful for their help — and so are those who come to class. You can never have too many refreshments!
We did some major Spring cleaning of our cupboards this week and Rachel was a great help with that, too. Don't know what we would do without her. Plus, she's really good at taking on Elder Whitehead at Jenga. We leave the game out during the week and have a little competition going to see who can break the record for making the tallest stack.
We had some really rainy quiet days this week, but then good days, too. It is such a blessing to get to know the young single adults who come to the institute. For some, it is their home away from home during the day, which makes us feel like family. We worry when we don't see them, but are so happy when we hear of those who have gotten jobs or are in school. We especially hope to see their faith in the Lord grow. It's fun to see the love and concern they have for each other.
Sunday we attended the Naulu ward in Nausori. What a great ward! Naulu will be our last ward assignment before we go home– it's hard to believe. It is an English speaking ward, but about half of the testimonies and prayers we heard were in Fijian. The amazing thing is that the Spirit is the same, so we're fine with it. We have had some ups and downs this week, but still feel incredibly blessed. This mission is truly "wananavu!" (awesome).

The team at FDAMH were sad to say farewell to FDAMH's Chair, David McClements, this week as he chaired his final Board Meeting and AGM.
David has provided ten years of service on FDAMH's Board and, at the AGM, he highlighted the great changes he has seen since he joined in 2008. In particular, David noted how much more willing people are to talk about their mental health and seek support from organisations like FDAMH. This is reflected in the continued growth in demand that FDAMH has experienced through all the years of David's tenure.
With this in mind, David mentioned the importance of FDAMH's efforts to find new premises and the role of funders and partners, old and new, to help us achieve this vision.
David also expressed his gratitude to volunteers for the hugely valuable work that they do.
We are pleased to reveal that David will continue supporting FDAMH in another volunteer role, although his excellent contribution to the work of the Board will be missed.
At the AGM we were delighted to have Hollie Houghton and Chris Gray appointed as new Board Members. Angus MacVicar, serving on FDAMH's board since 2013 has been appointed as FDAMH's new Chair.
If you would like to find out more about volunteering at FDAMH please visit our Volunteer Page.
FDAMH seeks a Gardening Group Volunteer to oversee and support a group of around 6-8 people within Falkirk to advise and support them in aspects of gardening, planting and maintaining a garden bed located in the High Street in Falkirk.
As well as our aim to reduce social isolation for those who attend, it is also to give people the opportunity to find a new interest, or re-engage with an old one, whilst being supported.
The group hope to meet one afternoon a week, for 2or 3 hours during the Spring and Summer, reducing to once a fortnight as Autumn moves into Winter. The group will run for 12 months, with a hope that the group is ongoing, with new members. If you are reliable with good communication skills, some gardening knowledge and able to commit to the programme we would love to hear from you.
Evening receptionists are vital, helping us to extend support and services to people whose commitments mean they can't get help from FDAMH during the day.
Are you someone who is reliable and able to provide evening reception and administration support? With a welcoming and understanding nature the successful applicant will help to ensure the smooth running of appointments and provide reception service for people attending meetings and appointments. Full training for this role will be provided.
Not 'just' an admin role – your efforts will help us to reach out to people when they need it, and hopefully before they become overwhelmed.
If you're interested in this role please contact Morag Fullard at FDAMH by calling 01324 671600.


Location theory has traditionally been based on equilibrium concepts. Dynamics have been introduced mainly to ascertain whether there are paths leading to the equilibrium states. The modeling of dynamics has been very simple yet involving both locational changes and price changes. Notions of market areas and competition between firms have been at the core of location analysis. Although the classical location theory was developed in a regional context, the models have found a number of recent applications in urban analysis where interdependencies and dynamics are central elements. The theoretical contributions of Hotelling, Hoover, and Palander form cornerstones for the discussion in the current chapter. In this chapter, we will mainly dwell in the Hotelling tradition and use the theories of Hoover and Palander as introductory and complementary inputs. The chapter presents a series of behavioral models in the spirit of the classical Hotelling location game involving the spatial location of suppliers (sellers) and consumers (customers) in an urban context. The models have been established within a cellular automata framework. The location models studied assume fixed prices. The location of sellers is determined by the relative accessibility to customers and the competition between sellers for customers. Using the techniques of cellular automata, a set of simulations will be performed to discuss equilibrium states of customer-seller systems. The discussion will serve to illustrate some elements of location theory under different levels of complexity.


I can�t emphasis this enough � stay away from sites that claim they will double your coins or give you daily interest on them. Different countries are accepting it as a payment method. That is not the problem here. Which represents a staggering 2-week drop of over 37%. It is my opinion that ethereum is currently in a bubble stage. A new rule might only allow 500k blocks.
The hard fork created a rivalry between the two networks. 800 whereas if you put us$2500 straight into eth and sat on it that looks like this: us$2500 divided by us$14. We advise you to invest your money in multiple funds. Do your homework When something sounds too good to be true The chances that it'll crash are really negligible.

Why China wants its citizens to boycott a South Korean television show
China's social media users have called for a boycott of a popular South Korean variety show saying the latest episode of Running Man is "an insult". "I feel speechless, I will no longer watch the show," one user posted on China's Twitter-like Weibo. The offending episode - and the uproar that followed - occurred as members of the show played a board game, similar to Monopoly. Eagle-eyed viewers noticed China and Taiwan were placed side by side - on equal footing - along with Taiwan's official flag, in what they regarded as a violation of the 'One China' policy. Within hours of the episode being aired, China's Twitter-like platform Weibo was flooded with posts, earning more than 1.5 billi

Taiwan's latest US weapons 'boost its ability to fight off Chinese invasion'
Taiwan's ability to strike back at a potential attack from mainland China has received a further boost after the US approved its second arms sale to the island in a week, to boost its coastal defenses. The Taiwanese defense minister said the deal would help the island achieve its goal of being able to destroy half of any invading force. In a statement on Monday, the US state department said it had notified Congress of its approval for the $2.4 billion package, which includes 400 Harpoon anti-ship missiles, 100 launcher transporters, radar and support systems. The arms deal is the ninth approved since Donald Trump became president in 2017. According to the state department, Taiwan will be abl

Military experts said the latest US arms sales, the first of their kind for more than four decades, were intended to enable Taipei to counter the increasingly modernized firepower of Beijing, which considers the self-ruled democracy to be part of its territory and has vowed to take the island – by force if necessary. The latest batch of proposed arms sales – the eighth to be approved during Donald Trump's presidency – was welcomed by Taipei on Thursday in the face of growing military intimidation from Beiji

Greta Thunberg declares support for 'Hong Kong 12'
Greta Thunberg, the high-profile global environmental activist, has waded into sensitive Chinese politics by demanding the release of 12 Hong Kong fugitives detained in mainland China after being arrested at sea while fleeing to Taiwan. The Swedish environmentalist shared on Twitter a picture of her holding a whiteboard bearing the message "#SAVE12HKYOUTHS" in response to a direct appeal to back the cause from Joshua Wong Chi-fung, the poster boy of Hong Kong's protest movement. She also wrote, "12 is more than just a number" and called on three other environmental activists to join her in the cause. The arrest of 12 Hong Kong activists in August has made international headlines and turned

Two Taiwanese musicians may get fined for performing in China
The Taiwanese authorities have threatened to fine two singers for taking part in a mainland Chinese state media show. Ouyang Nana, a Taiwanese cellist and singer, will join singers from Hong Kong in a performance that will be broadcast on CCTV on Wednesday, ahead of the October 1 anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. The gala will also feature Angela Chang, another Taiwanese singer, in a chorus celebrating the contributions of those who helped fight Covid-19. The singers have millions of fans on the mainland, but Taiwanese authorities said their participation was an attempt by the Beijing authorities to put pressure on the self-ruled island and promote a "one count
Skepticism of China is pushing this island toward an independence vote
When China officially opened its embassy to the Solomon Islands on Monday, exactly a year after wooing the Pacific Island nation away from Taiwan, there were smiles all around. During an opening ceremony in the capital Honiara, Solomon Islands Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare said the diplomatic switch to Beijing had been the "right thing to do" and put the archipelago of about 690,000 people on the "right side of history." At the same moment about 60 miles away – authorities in Malaita, the most populous of the country's nine provinces – were in the middle of preparations for an independence referendum fueled by growing suspicion and acrimony toward China. The planned vote, which Malaita's

US presidential election: China, Trump and red lines on Taiwan
For Beijing, there is one very clear red line on Taiwan. If the self-ruled island moves toward independence, Beijing has said that it would be justified in "reunifying" Taiwan with the mainland by force, a position it spelt out 15 years ago in its Anti-Secession Law. Despite dramatic lows and opposing stands in their relationship, both sides of the Taiwan Strait have so far managed to avoid crossing that line and engaging in a direct confrontation. But in the last few months, in the lead-up to the US presidential election, Washington has tried to capitalize on anti-China sentiment by offering strong support for the island. Beijing has branded the actions "US provocations" and promised to def

Taiwan redesigned its passport so people won't mistake it with China

After Trump met with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the Group of 20 summit in 2017, the White House issued a transcript of what the American president told reporters before he went into the meeting. It was a routine practice, except that the Trump administration made a mistake: the statement called Xi the president of the Republic of China. The Republic of China (ROC) is Taiwan's government, which sits in the Taiwanese capital of Taipei. Xi is the president of the People's Republic of China (PRC), and he rules from the lush quarters of Zhongnanhai in Bei

'No ease up'
Clampdown on illegal vending across the west for Yuletide season
BY HORACE HINES
Observer West reporter
MONTEGO BAY, St James — The St James police are going to be working closely with the St James Municipal Corporation to tighten the screws on street vendors who operate outside of their designated areas in the resort city of Montego Bay and other areas of western Jamaica during the upcoming festive season.
Speaking recently at a press conference at the St James Municipal Corporation building, where representatives from the Fire Brigade, the St James Health Department and the St James police were present, Mayor Davis underscored that it will not be business as usual, especially for migrant vendors.
"Usually in the Christmas period, especially Christmas Eve, there is a little relaxation, but when I spoke to Deputy Superintendent of Police, Kevin Francis and his team, they made it clear that for the itinerant vendors who come to Montego Bay, it won't be business as usual. We have to operate our city under the rule of law," said Mayor Davis.
"We are not saying that persons are not to make an honest living, but you cannot make that honest living by making life difficult for persons who are going about their lawful business. So, we have to understand that as a people. Courtesy begets courtesy, so we are prepared to deal with the eventualities as it relates to street vending."
He disclosed, however, that plans are in the works to allow vending in designated areas in the city for the season.
"We will be looking at how we give temporary vending permits and the areas [in] which we will be allowing people to vend. One thing, I can assure you, is that we will be working very closely with the Jamaica Constabulary Force because, I know there is a new thrust from the commissioner of Police that public spaces must at all times give free and unfettered access to the public; and wherever illegal vending or illegal obstruction is taking place, then the police have the authority under the various acts to, not only to remove those persons, but to prosecute them," Davis explained.
His counterpart in the bordering parish of Trelawny, Councillor Colin Gager, disclosed plans to use a plot of land close to the new state-of- the-art market in Falmouth to accommodate the increased number of vendors expected over the holiday period.
"We are going to be allowing vending on the piece of land adjoining the new market to accommodate the extra vendors. The area will be well lit," Gager informed.
He was quick to issue a stern warning that except for fruit vendors in selected areas, no vending will be allowed in the historic town.
The St James Health Department has also cautioned that they will be keeping a close watch out for vendors acting "outside of the law".
"We consume more in the Yuletide season. Persons who we did not know were butchers suddenly become butchers. Persons who we would see in different facilities, customer service etcetera, become restaurateurs, all operating outside of the law," Lennox Wallace, the chief public health inspector at the St James Health Department, pointed out.
When contacted, Mayor of Savanna-la-Mar Councillor Bertel Moore disclosed that the Westmoreland Municipal Corporation is soon to meet to devise plans for the Christmas season.
Savanna-la-Mar, the parish capital, has in the past, been overwhelmed by unlawful vending during the Yuletide season.
Mayor of Lucea Councillor Sheridan Samuels told the Observer West that the Hanover Municipal Corporation is scheduled to have a meeting to formalise how vending will be conducted in the town of Lucea during the Yuletide season, in the coming days.

Q: Best method of persisting API data when using react-router I have a problem with latency with my current React application. As it currently is written, I have a top level react-router which routes between several protected routes. Like so:
export default function IndexRouter(): JSX.Element {
  return (
    <Switch>
      <Route path="/routeA" component={ComponentA} />
      <Route path="/routeB" component={ComponentB} />
      <Route path="/routeC" component={ComponentC} />
       ...
    </Switch>
  );
}

Component A loads a lot of data from several API calls, including multiple data arrays and images. This is done with a custom Axios hook. The approximate structure of component A is as follows:
export default function ComponentA(): JSX.Element {
  const [data, loading, error, fetch] = useAxios(...);
  return (
    <Sub1 />
    <Sub2 />
  );
}
export default function Sub1(): JSX.Element {
  const [data, loading, error, fetch] = useAxios(...);
  const [data1, loading1, error1, fetch1] = useAxios(...);

  return (
    ... more sub-components
  );
}

And it is nested like so.
So basically a lot of data is obtained when the user navigates to componentA with react-router. My problem is that the user frequently navigates away from componentA (which is the main page), only to come back to componentA each time. Each time, componentA loads all of the data that was loaded previously, with only some minor changes made from users. This repeated loading is causing a ton of latency during navigation.
I don't feel I can take advantage of useMemo or useCallback since componentA is being unmounted during navigation by react-router. I don't feel persisting data in localStorage would be a good long term fix. I also feel that abstracting all the deep API calls within componentA to a higher order component would not be a great fix either and would cause a mess of the code with prop drilling.
So my question is how does one fix this issue?

A: save fetched data into redux, or create a CacheContext in the top, and create interceptor for axios to save fetched data on response, try use cache in request

A:
I don't feel persisting data in localStorage would be a good long term fix

I don't think there's something wrong with using localStorage for this use-case.

not be a great fix either and would cause a mess of the code with prop drilling

React offers a painless way to handle prop drilling, it's native and built-in to the language and it's called Context API. There are some caveats to this as this requires optimizations and if not used properly, could lead to issues such as (but not limited to) re-rendering unnecessarily. State management libraries like MobX gives you a way to handle this in a less painful way by simply connecting your component to the state tree which could be persisted in your local storage.
Another way to handle this is to simply cache your API's response, there are libraries out there like SWR (stale-while-revalidate) built to simplify this for you.
A snippet from SWR's documentation:

SWR first returns the data from cache (stale), then sends the fetch request (revalidate), and finally comes with the up-to-date data again.

There are also parameters in the library that allows you to dictate when to re-validate.

The hackers vs. the hype: London's tale of two tech cities
London Tech Week: It might seem like a lot of hot air, but that's what you need to lift a balloon.
By Steve Ranger | June 16, 2014 -- 14:39 GMT (07:39 PDT) | Topic: Start-Ups
London aims to showcase its high-tech businesses during Tech Week. Image: Steve Ranger/TechRepublic
It's true — the hype about the London tech scene is as whipped up as the froth on an overpriced Hoxton flat white. But it's also the case that the capital is growing tech businesses almost as fast as the resident hipsters can grow beards.
Over the next few days, London aims to showcase pretty much every high-tech business within the M25 as part of London Tech Week. It will feature 130 events attended by 30,000 tech entrepreneurs, investors and developers going to pitching competitions and hackathons across industries including education, music, sport, fashion, finance and science. Every strand of tech from artificial intelligence and big data to wearables will get its turn in the spotlight.
Tech businesses could contribute as much as another £12bn to London's economy — and, more importantly, 46,000 new jobs if all goes well, according to extremely optimistic predictions from London mayor Boris Johnson.
The Magic Roundabout: Can Tech City build a start-up paradise?
The Tech City Investment Organisation is spending £50m on a four-year project to regenerate the area around London's Old Street roundabout. Can it inspire the start-up scene?
It's a remarkable show of confidence and a reflection of how much London's tech startup scene has changed over the past half decade or so.
It's easy to be dismissive, to reject the hype; to point out the greatest innovation to come out of Tech City so far is its own branding, creating a unifying identity and buzz around the wild variety of tech startups being created across the city.
For all the incubators and archly-hip coworking spaces we're still waiting for the big London success stories to come through. And insiders worry there's still a reasonable chance that it could all wither away again if the later-stage funding doesn't appear to turn today's modest tech companies into tomorrow's giants.
But just to complain about the hype is to miss the point. It's also undeniable that branding is as important in tech as it is in fashion — there are dozens of examples of companies with the best technology which failed because their rivals had better marketing.
Government is terrible at tech but surprisingly good at promotion, and so shining the spotlight on Tech City is a probably the best it can do to help — even if that means watching, as I did this morning, London's mop-haired mayor struggling to build a computer at the start of London Tech Week.
There are two tech cities in London. For a long time, looking for the tech companies in the capital meant looking to west, not to the east: many of the big US tech companies have their UK and European headquarters over in the manicured and rather dull business parks near Heathrow.
They're still a powerful force of course, but the excitement is now over in the East End where smart entrepreneurs are building tech companies with a recognisably London feel to them. These are not just copies of Silicon Valley startups but — particularly those grappling with the connection of the physical and digital worlds and the internet of things — companies doing something fascinating and new.
Tech City might be overrun with naive excitement, hyperbole and boosterism, but those are exactly the sorts of things that made Silicon Valley the success it is.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'Gravity' Falls to 'Grandpa'
2:01 PM 10/27/2013 by Logan Falk
This weekend marks the end of Gravity, which ruled the box office charts for three weeks, due to its powerful plot and execution. It was bested this weekend not by another film of high caliber and repute, but by a sequel to one of the most low-brow franchises of all time:
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Gravity' and 'Captain Phillips' Continue to Conquer
As one might expect, on a weekend where the new releases are largely mediocre, the stellar releases of previous weeks will have no problem keeping their places at the top of the charts.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Gravity' and 'Captain Phillips' Dominate
As expected, the two über-highly rated films of the last two weeks took the lion's share of earnings in the box office over the weekend, and now stand proudly at the top of the charts this weekend. Accordingly, this week's less well-received release, and the remaining holdover films, did much less well.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Gravity' Attracts Huge Money
7:31 PM 10/6/2013 by Logan Falk
This weekend is a story in exceeding expectations for this last Friday's batch of new releases—the highly-rated Gravity earned above even its high projected gross for the weekend, and the slightly less highly-rated Runner Runner somehow managed to earn below its meager predicted range.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Cloudy 2' Pulls in a Storm of Revenues
4:30 PM 9/29/2013 by Logan Falk
Although the film didn't quite reach the astronomical height of earnings it was predicted to attain, there was little question that Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 would sit comfortably at the top of the charts. The results for the rest of this weekend's releases were a little more interesting, however.
New in Theaters: 'Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2,' 'Rush,' 'Don Jon,' 'Baggage Claim'
We've quite a busy weekend ahead of us this time around, as there are four films coming out that span pretty well the whole range of audiences one could imagine. There's family fun, comedy, action, romance, raunchy romance, and everything in between.

What to Watch This Girls Basketball Season
Ryan Murken Follow @rmmurken November 22, 2016
Basketball season has officially arrived.
The season officially began for girls team across the state with the first day of competition last Friday.
Area teams open the season on Tuesday with Solon hosting Clear Creek Amana in a meeting of WAMAC cross-division rivals while West Branch hosts Durant in a River Valley Conference South Division matchup.
Here are five things to keep an eye leading between now and the state tournament that runs from February 27 to March 4 at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines.
Regina's Next Step
Regina has taken a step forward each of the last two seasons.
A state qualifier in 2015 the Regals picked up their first state tournament win since 2003 last year before falling to eventual champion Unity Christian in the semifinals.
The next step is a big one and the Regals seem poised to take it.
With three starters returning, including its top two scorers from last year's 25-1 team, Regina opens the season atop the 2A rankings and seeking the first state title in program history.
Jeff Wallace returns for his second stint leading the program after directing Regina to 120 wins in six seasons from 2000-2006 including the first state tournament win in program history in 2003.
All-state junior guard Mary Crompton is back after averaging a team-high 16.3 last year while senior Sarah Lehman returns after averaging 10.1 points and 5.4 rebounds per game.
The addition of 5-foot-10 sophomore Alex Wiese who averaged 15.4 points and 12.7 rebounds per game last season at Tipton provides more firepower for the Regals who are 46-5 over the past two seasons.
Drilling for the Well
City High and West High will both attempt to end mini state tournament droughts this season after near misses a year ago.
West High is just one year removed from its last tournament berth after falling to Waukee in overtime in a 5A regional final last year.
The Women of Troy opens the season No. 8 in 5A with all five starters and their top eight scorers led by junior Rachael Saunders returning from last year's team that finished 15-8.
City High is seeking its first state tournament appearance since 2014 after back-to-back regional final losses the past two seasons.
All-state junior Ashley Joens is among three returning starters for City High which went 19-4 last year and opens the season ranked fourth in 5A.
Big-Time Talent
Joens and Saunders both committed to Division I programs before the start of their junior seasons and headline a big group of big-time talent in the area.
Saunders led West High with 9.7 points per game last season and pledged to Creighton this fall. A two-time all-state pick that averaged 19.3 points per game last year, Joens gave a verbal commitment to Iowa State on Sunday.
Saunders and Joens are just the beginning of the talent in the area.
West High 6-foot-1 junior Logan Cook averaged 9.0 points per game last year and had 20 in the regional final loss to Waukee.
Crompton and Wiese give Regina a pair of prospects while West Branch junior Tatum Koenig continues to receive Division I attention.
Chasing the Champs
A pair of defending state champions open the season atop the rankings in their respective classes.
Defending Class 3A champion Pocahontas Area and last year's 1A state champ Springville both open the season ranked number one.
Other defending champions included Ankeny Centennial in Class 5A, Mason City in 4A and Unity Christian in 2A.
Of those three teams only Ankeny Centennial opens the season ranked in the top 10. The Jaguars are seventh in the Class 5A rankings.
Regina begins the season top-ranked in Class 2A, while Pella starts the year No. 1 in 4A and Davenport North is the top-ranked team in Class 5A.
Expect several of last year's runner-up squads to once again push for state titles.
Pella was the runner-up in 4A last season and Western Christian, last year's 2A runner-up opens the season second to Regina in 2A.
Third Year Is the Charm
After going 13-9 in the first year under head coach P.J. Sweeney two seasons ago Clear Creek Amana dropped to 8-14 last year.
With six seniors and five players returning with starting experience the Clippers are hoping to flip their record back above .500 in Sweeney's third season.
Five of the Clippers' top six scorers from last year return led by senior Erin Navara who averaged 10.2 points per game last season.
A strong start will be key for Clear Creek Amana with five of the Clippers' first six games coming against teams that posted winning records a year ago.

This Project introduces the concept of Universal Asynchronus Recieve/Transmit (UART) Devices. UART is a communication standard that is very widely used in a range of applications. For this lab, we will use UART to transfer data between between your computer and the blackboard. It can also be used to talk between embedded devices (not necessarily to a PC). Using a terminal on the PC-side, you can create text interfaces to your programs where you can send and receive data from the blackboard.
Most embedded controllers have at least one (but often many UART controllers). There are two UART controllers found in the Zynq system: Each allow the processor to receive and transmit data with connected devices. UART1 is connected to the FTDI controller on the blackboard, which converts the serial data to USB. This allows serial data to be read/written to/from your PC via the same USB connection that programs the Blackboard.
Terminal emulators are a class of programs that can connect to devices and display input received and send output from the user. Xilinx's SDK has a built in terminal emulator that can connect to serial ports. Other terminals can be used as well (like screen on linux), but only configuration for the XSDK terminal is covered.
1. Configure the UART module and transmit characters to your computer.
Write a program that configures UART1 for a baud-rate of 115200, 8 data bits, no parity bits, and 1 stop bit. Then have the program continuously send a single character, with a long delay between each character sent (to ensure you don't overflow the transmit buffer). You can send an ascii value held in a char or uint8_t.
Verify your program works by connecting a terminal to your computer's corresponding serial port. Make sure your terminal is configured for 115200, 8 data bits, no parity, and a single stop bit. If everything is correct you should see a continuous stream of the given character.
Write a program that waits to receive data from the UART and responds via UART when data arrives. Have the program wait for a specific number or letter. Respond with a multi-character message when it receives the character you defined.
For example: Your blackboard could reply "Hello!" every time it received an 'h' character.
Write a function that takes a C String as an argument and transmits the string through uart1. C-Strings are null terminated; The character '\0' or ascii value 0 is found at the end of the string. Make sure you stop sending data if you see a null character in your string. You should also define a maximum string length for the case where a string that isn't terminated properly is sent to the function.
Before writing a character to the transmit buffer, check the status flags for the buffer to make sure the buffer has room for additional characters. The 'FIFO_FULL' flag being clear should tell you that the there is room for at least 1 more character in the buffer. If you overflow the buffer, you will lose data.
Have your program receive a single hexadecimal digit from the computer and display the value as binary on 4 LEDs. Since the character received will be in ascii format, you'll need to convert it to an binary integer before writing to the LEDs.
Write a function that takes an decimal integer as an argument and sends the number through the uart (send the characters representing the number, not the ascii value). You can also make a version that sends hex numbers. Converting integers to a string of hex characters might be easier. Why? How do computers represent integers?
Configure the GTC to intterrupt every 1/2 second (500ms). When the interrupt occurs read data from the XADC channel corresponding to the potentiometer on the blackboard. Convert the Data so it appears as a value between 0 and 1 volts, with 4 digits of precision; 0.000 to 1.000. To do this you will need to know how the data is represented in the XADC regsiters.
When you convert the XADC read value to volts you will end up with a floating point number. If you've written functions in challenge 1, you cannot just pass it a floating point number as they are represented via their own format. Instead, you can convert the floating point number to an integer before sending it to the PC. This of course results in a loss of precision. Make sure you put the decimal point in the proper place and include a unit!.
Configure UART1 to generate interrupts when it receives data.
Write a program that counts upwards every second and sends the count value to the PC. Have the count reset when it receives any input from the PC and have your program send an acknoledgement of some kind to the terminal. Use interrupts to accomplish this. Polling the receiver fifo will not count.

3 conglomerates report mixed income results
posted August 14, 2019 at 07:35 pm by Jenniffer B. Austria
Conglomerates JG Summit Holdings Inc., Alliance Global Group Inc. and DMCI Holdings Inc. turned in mixed income results in the first half after cost pressures weighed on revenues.
JG Summit of the Gokongwei group said net income climbed 79 percent in the first six months to P17.6 billion from a year ago while AGI, the investment holding company of billionaire Andrew Tan, registered a flat profit of P12.5 billion.
DMCI Holdings Inc. of the Consunji family booked P6.7 billion in consolidated income in the first half of 2019, down 22 percent from P8.6 billion in the previous year.
JG Summit said the favorable first-half results came on the back of a 10-percent increase in revenues and mark-to-market and forex gains amid the favorable macroeconomic environment.
"We are pleased to report a record P17.6-billion net income in the first half. With inflation easing and a generally favorable macroeconomic environment this year, we continue to experience strong growth from our food, airline and real estate businesses. Our exposure to a diverse mix of core businesses and investments has certainly helped us achieve such earnings momentum. We hope to sustain this growth for the balance of the year," JG Summit said.
Meanwhile, AGI said all major subsidiaries in property, liquor, gaming and quick service restaurant businesses contributed to the 15-percent growth in revenues to P82.8 billion in the first six months.
"We believe the group's strong topline performance was achieved on the back of a highly favorable domestic economy which cushioned the impact of some challenges in the global market," AGI chief executive Kevin Tan said.
Tan said the increasing cost pressures, some brought about by the very competitive environment, had impacted on margins.
"Despite this, we remain confident that the collective growth strategies we have put in place – largely through product and market diversification, international pursuits for our spirits business and our ongoing expansion projects – are sound and will soon bear fruit," said Tan.
DMCI Holdings said first-half earnings slowed down because of the weak contributions of Semirara Mining and Power Corporation, D.M. Consunji Inc. and DMCI Mining.
"We had a tough first-half because of the lower average selling price of coal, higher replacement power costs, provisions for project cost overruns and lower average price for our lower grade nickel," said DMCI Holdings chairman and president Isidro Consunji.
"But we hope to curb the profit decline in the succeeding quarters," he said.

Television, 1981–1987
80s show Close Up had a similar brief to earlier current affairs show Compass: to present mini-documentaries on topical local issues. Stories in the primetime hour-long slot were wide-ranging, from hard news to human interest pieces, including a profile of 25-year-old foreign exchange dealer, future-Prime Minister, John Key. The show won Feltex Awards for most of the years that it was on air. Close Up is not related to the post-nightly news show of the same name, which was hosted by Mark Sainsbury until 2012.
Close Up was an award-winning current affairs programme on TVNZ, running from 2004 to 2012; it screened for half an hour at 7pm, following the nightly primetime news. Roving reporters filed stories presented in the studio, initially by Susan Wood. Mark Sainsbury was host from 2006 until the show went off air in November 2012 (with Mike Hosking and Paul Henry as back-up). Replacing the Holmes show and originally launched as Close Up at 7, it was rebranded in 2005, and in turn was replaced by Seven Sharp. Close Up is not to be confused with the 80s show of the same name.
Pioneering soap opera Close To Home first screened in May 1975. For just over eight years, middle New Zealand found their mirror in the life and times of Wellington's Hearte clan. At its peak in 1977, nearly one million viewers tuned in twice weekly to watch the series, which was co-created by Michael Noonan and Tony Isaac. They initially only agreed to make it on condition they got approval for The Governor. The popular family saga carved a regular niche for local drama on screen; the demands of creating a regular show helped develop the skills of Kiwi actors and crew.
Gliding On
In an age before Rogernomics, and well before The Office, there was the afternoon tea fund, Golden Kiwi, and four o'clock closing: welcome to the early 80s world of the New Zealand Public Service. Gliding On (1981 - 1985) was the first locally made sitcom to become a bona-fide classic. The series was inspired by Roger Hall's hit play Glide Time and satirised a paper-pushing working life then-familiar to many Kiwis. Gliding On won several Feltex Awards including best male and female actors and best entertainment.
Ken's Hunting and Fishing Show
This homespun, informative and gently satirical hunting and fishing series is presented by good kiwi bloke Ken Moller (Lynda Topp from the Topp Twins). With alpine guide, Queenstown radio DJ and crack shot Emma Lange, aka Lady Hunter, Ken takes viewers on armchair adventures to some of New Zealand's most spectacular wilderness regions where they hunt sika stag, fish for feisty rainbow trout and "bloody beautiful browns". Closing segment Ken's Camp Kitchen features "gastronomical delights" such as venison casserole.
Pete and Pio
Pete and Pio was a sketch comedy show based on the talents of its two leads, Peter Rowley and Pio Terei. Each episode opens with a stand-up double act performed to a studio audience and closes with a musical number led by Terei. The sketches mostly star Pete and Pio together, with a small supporting cast. This was Terei's first lead television role, and was followed later by his own show Pio! which also aired on TV3. Rowley has had a long career in comedy, most notably his collaborations with Billy T James in the 1980s.
McDonald's Young Entertainers
Hosted by Jason Gunn, McDonalds Young Entertainers was a popular late 90s talent quest for teenagers. A house troupe of singers and dancers (Super Troopers, a Kiwi take on Disney's Mickey Mouse Club) helped the contestants prepare for the judges, and opened and closed each show. Judges included King Kapisi, Tina Cross and Stacey Morrison. Young performers who featured included Ainslie Allen, Hayley Westenra, Sticky TV/C4 host Drew Neemia, actor Michelle Ang (Neighbours, Fear the Walking Dead: Flight 462) and concert pianist John Chen.
Frontseat
With five series and close to 100 episodes, Frontseat, produced by The Gibson Group, was the longest-running arts programme of its time. Billed by TVNZ publicity as a "topical and provocative weekly arts series investigating the issues facing local arts and culture", and hosted by actor Oliver Driver, it (sometimes controversially) took a broad current affairs approach to the arts of the day, covering "all the big events, reporting the stories, and interviewing the personalities."
The Country Touch
The Country Touch was a widely popular country and western music show from the 60s, that screened on Saturday nights. Produced by Bryan Easte for NZBC the show was filmed on an Auckland hay barn set and featured musical numbers, from folk, fiddles, and banjos to bluegrass, introduced by the legendary Tex Morton. Regulars included The Hamilton County Bluegrass Band, Brian Hirst's Country Touch Singers (with a team of 20 square dancers), and Kay and Shane. Has Auckland ever been this close to the Appalachians?
A Going Concern
A Going Concern was part of a wave of new drama which hit television from the mid 70s, after the launch of a new second TV channel. The soap debuted in July 1975, initially twice a week in an afternoon slot, before moving to primetime. Chronicling the lives of the staff of a South Auckland factory, it won enthusiastic reviews. The Auckland Star praised the "believable Kiwis with topical problems". Critic Barry Shaw argued it had "a good deal more going for it in characterisation, pace and direction" than rival soap Close to Home. A Going Concern was cancelled after a year.


On 5 December 2014, Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, wrote a piece in the Huffington Post in which he eloquently calls on all to 'Stand in Solidarity With Courageous Women's Human Rights Defenders'.
"Almost two decades ago, in Beijing, 189 countries made a commitment to achieve equality for women, in practice and in law, so that all women could at last fully enjoy their rights and freedoms as equal human beings.
They adopted a comprehensive and ambitious plan to guarantee women the same rights as men to be educated and develop their potential. The same rights as men to choose their profession. The same rights to lead communities and nations and make choices about their own lives without fear of violence or reprisal. No longer would hundreds of thousands of women die every year in childbirth because of health care policies and systems that neglected their care. No longer would women earn considerably less than men. No longer would discriminatory laws govern marriage, land, property and inheritance.
In the years that followed, the world has witnessed tremendous progress: the number of women in the work force has increased; there is almost gender parity in schooling at the primary level; the maternal mortality ratio declined by almost 50 percent; and more women are in leadership positions. Importantly, governments talk about women's rights as human rights, and women's rights and gender equality are acknowledged as legitimate and indispensable goals.
However, the world is still far from the vision articulated in Beijing. Approximately 1 in 3 women throughout the world will experience physical and/or sexual violence in their lifetime. Less than a quarter of parliamentarians in the world are women. In over 50 countries there is no legal protection for women against domestic violence. Almost 300,000 women and girls died in 2013 from causes related to pregnancy and childbirth. Approximately 1 in 3 married women aged 20 to 24 were child brides. In many parts of the world, women and girls cannot make decisions on their most private matters — sexuality, marriage, children. Girls and women who pursue their own life choices are still murdered by their own families in the dishonorable practice of so-called honor killings. All of our societies remain affected by stereotypes based on the inferiority of women, which often denigrate, humiliate and sexualize them.
Today we have the responsibility to protect the progress made in the past 20 years and address the remaining challenges. In doing so, we must recognize the vital role of women who defend human rights, often at great risk to themselves and their families precisely because they are viewed as stepping outside socially prescriptive gender stereotypes. We must recognize the role of all people, women and men, who publicly call for gender equality and often, as a result, find themselves the victim of archaic and patriarchal, but powerful, threats to their reputations, their work and even their lives. These extraordinary individuals — women's human rights defenders — operate in hostile environments, where arguments of cultural relativism are common and often against the background of the rise of extremist, misogynistic groups, which threaten to dismantle the gains of the past.
Attacks against women who stand up to demand their human rights and individuals who advocate for gender equality are often designed to keep women in their "place." In some areas of the world, women who participate in public demonstrations are told to go home to take care of their children. Consider the recent example of a newspaper publishing naked photos of a woman, claiming she was a well-known activist — an attack designed to shame this defender into silence. In other places, when women claim their right to affordable modern methods of contraception, they are labelled as prostitutes in smear campaigns seeking to undermine their credibility. Online attacks against those who speak for women's human rights and gender equality by so-called "trolls" — who threaten heinous crimes — are increasingly reported.
These attacks have a common thread — they rely on gender stereotypes and deeply entrenched discriminatory social norms in an attempt to silence those who challenge the age-old system of gender inequality. However, these defenders will not be silenced, and we must stand in solidarity with them against these cowardly attacks.
This is why my Office has decided to launch a campaign to pay tribute to women and men who defy stereotypes and fight for women's human rights. The campaign runs from Human Rights Day, December 10 this year, to International Women's Day, March 8, 2015. We encourage everyone to join the ranks of these strong and inspiring advocates, on social media and on the ground.

Q: how to load a local JSON file to google maps? I'm developing a map on my site using google maps JS API.
my map has a local JSON layer that defines a certain polygon area on the map.
everything went fine when i ran it within the visual-studio,
but when i double clicking map.html outside the VisualStudio project the polygon is not shown.
why is it?

this is the call for loading the Json layer:
        map.data.loadGeoJson(href = "MapLayer.json");
        map.data.setStyle({

            fillColor: 'red'
        });

A: Have you tried putting this folder inside xampp/wamp/tomcat or another http-server. I suspect google maps is not allowing file:// protocol.

A: The documentation just includes the link and no href. Try removing that. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/datalayer

A: Just put the path to the file in like this..
If you add the console.log(map.data.loadGeoJson) you should be able to see the Google array or it will at least show you the fault by display the console.
map.data.loadGeoJson('PATH TO FILE\MapLayer.json);
console.log(map.data.loadGeoJson)
map.data.setStyle({
                   fillColor: 'red'
                  });

A: Keep it simple, here is the code I am using
data = map.data.loadGeoJson('my.geojson');

map.data.addGeoJson(data);

Just call your geojson file, in this example my.geojson and then add the data to the map.

SNC-Lavalin president and CEO Neil Bruce speaks to reporters following the company's annual general meeting in Montreal, Que., on May 3, 2018.
SNC-Lavalin chief executive Neil Bruce wrote to Public Services Minister Carla Qualtrough on Oct. 13, 2017, and sent copies of his message to seven other senior cabinet ministers.
Mr. Bruce also attached his company's official submission for the consultations, which were examining possible changes to the "integrity regime" and the potential creation of a plea-bargain-type tool known as a deferred-prosecution agreement or remediation agreement.
Mr. Bruce's Montreal-based firm was charged in 2015 with corruption and fraud over allegations it resorted to bribery while pursuing business in Libya. If convicted, it could be barred from public contracts for 10 years under the federal integrity regime.
The letter, obtained under Access-to-Information law, shows a high-level push for policy changes to help the engineering and construction giant avoid prosecution.
A few months after the public consultations in the fall of 2017, the Trudeau government included the Criminal Code amendment creating the agreements in last spring's 582-page omnibus budget bill.
In his letter, Mr. Bruce asked Ms. Qualtrough and her staff to attend a meeting so he could answer questions about the company's submission, explain its governance improvements and share its plans to expand from its Canadian base.
He argued that Canada needed a deferred-prosecution agreement option as well as "enhancements" to its integrity regime for government contractors to align with policies in places such as the United States, Britain and France.
From there, Mr. Bruce's letter underscored the urgency several more times.
An internal briefing note to Ms. Qualtrough about Mr. Bruce's letter recommended she decline his invitation to meet and discuss SNC-Lavalin's submission. Since the public consultations were being led by federal officials, the memo suggested that Barbara Glover, Public Services and Procurement's assistant deputy minister for integrity, meet with Mr. Bruce instead.
Ms. Qualtrough agreed and signed off on a response letter to Mr. Bruce saying he should meet Ms. Glover. In that Oct. 31, 2017 letter, she thanked Mr. Bruce for his submissions and his participation in the consultation process.
Former attorney-general Jody Wilson-Raybould resigned from cabinet amid allegations that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, his staffers and other senior officials improperly pressured her to stop a criminal prosecution of SNC-Lavalin.
Mr. Trudeau had denied that he or his officials inappropriately leaned on Ms. Wilson-Raybould.
Treasury Board president Jane Philpott handed in her resignation Monday. Ms. Philpott said she had lost confidence in the way the government has dealt with criminal charges against the company.
Mr. Trudeau named Ms. Qualtrough as acting president of the Treasury Board, adding oversight of government spending and human resources to her duties.
Last week at committee, Ms. Qualtrough said the updated integrity regime, if adopted, will still carry a potential ban from federal contracts of up to a decade, depending on factors such as the severity of the transgression – but a draft of the new scheme released last fall shows there is no minimum ineligibility period.
Ms. Qualtrough said the new policy will be finalized in four to six weeks and will cover a wider range of offences.
