From our own school kitchen we provide the option of a hot meal at lunch time every day. Our menu is designed to provide a varied and healthy choice which means that your child can enjoy a tasty, healthy meal at a very fair cost and without the fuss of making packed lunches. We also cater for alternative dietary needs including vegetarian and gluten free.
At Gosberton House Academy we believe that school meals give your child a real appetite for learning and help them to achieve their full potential. In addition to eating a hot meal your child learns the essential skills of using cutlery and eating as part of a family group. Such vital skills help you as a family in your daily life outside of school. This is why we encourage and support every child to eat at least one cooked meal a week. Please take a look at our menu and see what meals you may wish to select. Some parents worry that their child may be hungry if they do not eat much when trying new things but please be assured that they have plenty of healthy snacks and water throughout the day.
In an attempt to remove all cash & cheques from school we use an e-payment method to order and pay for all school dinners. This can be done online using a very secure website called Parent Pay. If you already have a ParentPay account with another school , you can simply login to that account and add your other children via the ADD A CHILD tab on your home page .Any new pupils will be sent details from school of a unique activation username and password for parents to activate their account. Once you have activated your account you can make online payments straight away. Currently school meals cost £2.20 per day.
Please note the deadline for ordering meals each week, will be midnight on the Tuesday before the week you are ordering. If you miss the deadline you will need to provide a packed lunch for your child.
To look at Termly School Menus please look in the 'Latest Letters' of the school website.
If your child is eligible for 'free school meals' and you register them for this, we'll receive extra funding called 'pupil premium'. We use this extra money to improve the educational provision and resources at the school.
Currently, pupils in reception, year 1 and year 2 are entitled to a free school meal thanks to a different government funding scheme known as universal infant free school meals (UIFSM).
You shouldn't confuse UIFSM with free schools meals and the pupil premium.
If your child is in reception, year 1 or year 2 and is eligible for free school meals according to the criteria above, you should still register because we'll receive the extra pupil premium funding.
For more information about pupil premium go to our website, which contains details of how the pupil premium has been spent in the past academic year and how it will be spent this year.


Treadle Treasures is a family owned and operated business.
I have sold on several venues over the years. My preference is Etsy. It is a wonderful site for someone like me who makes their own products. It has been improving tremendously over the years, unlike another site I am still barely on. They do the hard work of putting together a well designed selling venue. I gladly pay their modest fees for their efforts. This website actually started out with the intention of selling products. After hours upon hours at the computer and with concerns about security and keeping up with software upgrades, my husband finally gave up. It has now become a landing site for my Etsy store. It is a place where I can publish information about myself and my products. So take a look around and let me know what you think and what you would like to see.
For more information about its beginnings and history, please see The Evolution of Treadle Treasures.
Email is the best way to get in touch with me. The telephone number is my cell phone, and I don't keep it attached to me. It could be turned off or sitting on the counter while my treadle sewing machine is whirring along.
If you are inquiring about a particular product, please use the "Ask a Question" button on the listing in Etsy. The messaging feature on Etsy is wonderful and it helps me keep track of correspondence. Your message will not get lost in the shuffle like can happen with emails.

The movement for civil rights in America peaked in the 1950s and 1960s; however, a closely related struggle, this time over the movement's legacy, has been heatedly engaged over the past two decades. How the civil rights movement is currently being remembered in American politics and culture--and why it matters--is the common theme of the thirteen essays in this unprecedented collection. Memories of the movement are being created and maintained--in ways and for purposes we sometimes only vaguely perceive--through memorials, art exhibits, community celebrations, and even street names. At least fifteen civil rights movement museums have opened since 1990; Mississippi Burning, Four Little Girls, and The Long Walk Home only begin to suggest the range of film and television dramatizations of pivotal events; corporations increasingly employ movement images to sell fast food, telephones, and more; and groups from Christian conservatives to gay rights activists have claimed the civil rights mantle. Contests over the movement's meaning are a crucial part of the continuing fight against racism and inequality. These writings look at how civil rights memories become established as fact through museum exhibits, street naming, and courtroom decisions; how our visual culture transmits the memory of the movement; how certain aspects of the movement have come to be ignored in its "official" narrative; and how other political struggles have appropriated the memory of the movement. Here is a book for anyone interested in how we collectively recall, claim, understand, and represent the past.

Q: How to Disable a AutoCompleteTextField in Flutter I am developing a Flutter app that has a AutoCompleteTextField in it. I want to enable it in insert mode and disable it in update mode. How can i do it?
This is my code for AutoCompleteTextField. It works absolutely fine but i want to disable it in update mode or based on any condition.
                  Expanded(
                    child:  AutoCompleteTextField(
                      controller: input_controller,
                      suggestions: input_list,
                      clearOnSubmit: false,
                      decoration: new InputDecoration(
                        contentPadding:EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(10,0,10,0),

                        border: OutlineInputBorder(
                          borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(10.0)),
                        ),

                        hintText: 'INPUT',
                        labelText: 'INPUT',
                      ),
                      itemFilter: (item,query){
                        return item.toLowerCase().startsWith(query.toLowerCase());
                      },
                      itemSorter: (a, b){
                        return a.compareTo(b);
                      },
                      itemSubmitted: (item){
                        input_controller.text = item;
                      },
                      itemBuilder: (context,item){
                        return Container(
                          padding: EdgeInsets.all(20.0),
                          child: Row(
                            children: <Widget>[
                              Text(item),
                            ],
                          ),
                        );
                      },
                    ),
                  ),

A: I'm not sure how you differentiate between INSERT and UPDATE mode in your application. But maybe you can find a way to do something like this:
Expanded(
  child: isInsertMode
      ? AutoCompleteTextField(...)
      : TextFormField(...)
),

Sizeable Lets You Shop Clothes Based on Body Shape, Not a Number
By Erin Mayer
I almost never order clothes online unless I've tried them on in a store first. You just never know how something will look once on your body, and the photos of the curve-less models on most websites don't give you any answers. A new website called Sizeable features models of all different sizes, geared toward helping women find a proper fit.
The website launched last week and was founded by Larissa Thorne, a Melbourne-based fashion writer. She became frustrated after trying to explain to her boyfriend how to buy something that would fit well for her birthday. Fed up with traditional online shopping, she rounded up friends of hers willing to model and Sizeable was born.
"When shopping online I could be anything from a size eight to a size 12. You look at a model [on a clothes website] who is a size eight and you have no idea if that's going to fit you or look good on you," she said.
On the Sizeable homepage, shoppers are greeted with photos of six models. You can scroll down to read their measurements and then choose to shop using the model most similar to you. The sizes range from six to 14.
Of course, this isn't a perfect system. None of the models really fit my particular body shape, and I'm sure other women will find this to be the case. But it is a giant step in the right direction. Thorne told the Daily Mail, "I find shopping online can be really demoralizing sometimes. It's left me feeling really down on my body and we want to encourage women to embrace how they look," she said. "It's a bit of a no-brainer, we all know there are millions of beautiful women out there who don't look like a Victoria's Secret model." YES.
Sizeable currently carries clothing from Limedrop, Ruby Sees All, AD by Haryono Setiadi, and Leonard Street. Within the next few months they'll begin to sell designs by Keepsake and Black by Geng. Thorne told Daily Mail that she will also be adding three additional models soon — one who is a size 14/16, one with more defined curves, and another who is a size four to six. Next year she hopes to introduce male models to the site as well.

Panzer general II je računalna igra iz 1997. godine.

Popularnost

Ova igra je napravljena kao nasljednik popularne potezne strategije Panzer general I iz 1994. godine. Tvorac igre je bila tvrtka Strategic Simulations, Inc (SSI). Panzer general II je bila najbolje prihvaćena igra iz serije general strategija ove softwerske kuće. Tijekom 2000. godine kada je časopis PC Gamer pravio popis najboljih igara svih vremena ova se popela na visoko 44 mjesto.

Način igranja

Na samom početku igre igrač mora izabrati koju će kampanju voditi. Izbor se u godini izdavanja nalazio u pet mogućnosti koje su bile:
Kampanja Blitzkrieg od 1938. godine pa sve do njemačke pobjede u ratu ili 1945. godine.
Kampanja Defending Reich nakon što je postalo očito da Njemačke neće dobiti rat igrač se trebao izborio za dobre mirovne uvjete
Kampanja SAD kojom se trebalo osloboditi Europu
Kampanja Velike Britanije kojom se kao i američkom trebalo osloboditi Europu.
Kampanja SSSR tijekom koje se trebalo obraniti domovinu i potom osvojiti Berlin

Tijekom igre najprije strana koja ima napadačku zadaću povlači prvi poteze, dok druga strana to može samo promatrati. Potom drugi igrač povlači svoje poteze. Završni cilj oba igrača je da osvoje jedan od drugog točno određene točke na karti čime igra završava. Ako taj cilj nije ispunio niti jedan od protivnika tada se bitka uvijek smatra porazom ljudskog igrača. Sveukupno broj tih rundi zavisi od scenarija do scenarija. Sveukupno grupa tih scenarija čini jednu kampanju koja da bi se završila mora proći bez i jednog poraza. Pojedinačne scenarije je inače moguće igrati i putem interneta protiv ljudskog protivnika što je te 1997. godine igri uvećalo popularnost. Način igranja se svodi na činjenicu kako je potrebno osim osvajanja strateških točaka, osvajati i nevažna sela kako bi se dobivao novac za kupovanje nove vojne opreme, nadoknađivanje gubitaka u trenutačnoj ili modernizaciju. Ta modernizacija je nužna pošto igrač 1938 godine počinje s tenkovima Panzer I i Panzer II koji teško da mogu pobijediti pješadiju, da bi 1945 godine stigao do gotovo neuništivih Tigar II ili IS-2 tenka. Potpuno identična situacija je s zrakoplovstvom, topovima, protutenkovskom ili protuzračnom obranom.

Sadašnjost

Fanovi ove igra bez obzira na njenu starost od nje nisu odustali tako da su tijekom godina dodavali razne zakrpe kojim se poboljšala grafika i količina kampanja. Posljednja velika besplatna zakrpa je iz kraja 2005. godine kojom se igri uspješno dodala još koja godina života.

Popis država koje vojne snage se može danas voditi u kampanjama kojih ima više od 50 s možda i više od 500 borbi je:
Hrvatska
Bugarska
Čehoslovačka
Finska
Mađarska
Poljska
Rumunjska
Španjolska
Slovačka
Njemačka
SSSR
SAD
Velika Britanija
Francuska
Italija
Turska
Portugal

Nov 23, 2015 in "Typhoon Lagoon"
A cold front has moved in to Central Florida and has brought a rapid drop in temperature to the theme park areas.
Forecasts put the lows in the 50's today, with a high of 68F. As a result, Disney will not be opening Typhoon Lagoon today (November 23 2015), and Blizzard Beach is already closed for its annual refurbishment.

Government in office at election: After the previous House of Assembly election in May 1969, both the Australian Labor Party and the Liberal Party had won 17 seats in the 35 seat Assembly. The remaining member, K O Lyons, the leader of the Centre Party, agreed to form a coalition government with the Liberal Party. The leader of the Liberal Party, Bethune, was commission as Premier of a Liberal Party and Centre Party coalition government.
'On 14 March [1972] the Chief Secretary, Mr K O Lyons [leader of the Centre Party] resigned from the government and precipitated a crisis. In a statement to the House of Assembly he explained that the government was divided and the Premier incompetent. The Premier wasted no time ... and next day sought and obtained from the Governor a dissolution of the House of Assembly', Townsley, Chronicle, p.289 (see 'References', below).
Government in office after election: At the House of Assembly election in April 1972 (this election), the Australian Labor Party won 21 of the 35 Assembly seats and Reece was commissioned for his second period in office as Premier of an Australian Labor Party majority government.
Length of House of Assembly Term: The Constitution Act of 1936 had increased the maximum term of the House of Assembly from three to five years. The Bethune government elected in 1969 had been committed to a shorter term, and the Constitution Act of 1969 restored the life of the Assembly to a maximum of three years, except for the Assembly elected in 1969; see Bennett and Bennett, p.19, Hughes, p.125 (see 'Sources', below). The term was to be changed to four years in 1972; see the note to the Assembly election of 1976.
Electoral system and voting: The Constitution Amendment Act 1906 '... reduced the number of Assembly districts to five, the boundaries of which were to be identical with the five Commonwealth electoral districts', Bennett and Bennett, p.12, (see 'Sources', below). The 1906 Act specified six members in each electoral district, but this was increased to seven from 1959, creating an Assembly of 35 members. The Electoral Act 1907 introduced proportional representation by the single transferable vote (STV) method to elect all members of the Assembly, a method which became known as the Hare-Clark system. For details of the adoption of STV and references on the operation of the electoral system, see the notes to the 1909 House of Assembly elections.
The Electoral Amendment Act of 1917 provided that '... casual vacancies be filled, not by a fresh poll of the electorate [by-election] but by a re-count [countback] of the ballot papers which elected the vacating member. Candidates at the preceding general election were required to apply to be considered candidates....', Hughes and Graham, 1890-1964, p. 590 (see 'Sources', below). For a brief summary of changes to the electoral system from 1909 to 1994, see Terry Newman, Representation of the Tasmanian People, Expanded edition 1803-1994, Appendix 2 (Hobart: Tasmanian Parliamentary Library, 1994, ISBN 0724642475).
United Tasmania Group: The failure of the environmental movement to change state and federal government policy over the flooding of Lake Pedder in 1972 prompted a number of Tasmanian environmental activists to form the United Tasmania Group (UTG) as a party to contest state Assembly and Legislative Council elections between 1972 and 1979.
The UTG is claimed to have been the world's first Green party; see Peter Christoff, 'Environmental Politics', in Judith Brett, James Gillespie and Murray Good (editors), Developments in Australian Politics, pp. 348-367, at p.353, (Melbourne: Macmillan, 1994, ISBN 0732920094); and Richard Flanagan, 'Return the People's Pedder!', in Cassandra Pybus and Richard Flanagan (editors), The Rest of the World is Watching: The Tasmanian Greens, pp. 194-210, at pp. 196-204, (Sydney: Pan Macmillan, 1990, ISBN 0725106514); and note, Christine Milne, 'Green Politics', in Alison Alexander (editor), The Companion to Tasmanian History, p. 167 (Hobart: Centre for Tasmanian Historical Studies, University of Tasmania, 2005, ISBN 186295223X), online at: https://bit.ly/2JzXBXu
Centre Party The Liberal Party's coalition partner in the previous government, the Centre Party, did not field any candidates at this election. 'The Centre Party had disintegrated and Lyons [its leader] had left the State', Townsley, Microcosm, p.294 (see 'References', below).
Independents: Changes to the Electoral Act in 1941 meant that candidates who ran for election without any stated party affiliation (Independents) could run with one or more other like-minded Independents as a 'group' on the ballot paper, or be listed with all other Independent candidates in that electoral district in an 'ungrouped' list; for details, see the note to the 1941 House of Assembly elections.
The vote shown for Independents in the table above is the vote gained by the combination of both sets of Independent candidates. Two candidates ran as members of a group of Independents and gained 325 first preference votes, with neither being elected. In addition, ten 'ungrouped' Independent candidates gained 2,752 first preference votes, none of whom was elected.
Townsley notes that one of the ungrouped Independents, former Liberal Minister of Health and Road Safety, N D G Abbott, resigned from the Liberal Party to run as an Independent Liberal; see Townsley, Microcosm, p.294 (see 'References', below).

Q&A with StraitsX
Mar 31, 2022, 8:00:00 AM Published By Wirex Team
Earlier this year, we announced that a new stablecoin had joined the Wirex family: XSGD. XSGD is the very first Singapore Dollar-pegged stablecoin, and today we've got some insights from the creators.
How has the popularity of stablecoins changed in the past year?
The market cap of stablecoins has grown exponentially from around US$1 billion in 2018 to more than US$160 billion by the end of 2021. The market cap of stablecoins currently stands at $183 billion, hitting an all-time high of dominating 10% of the total cryptocurrencies market cap.
What makes XSGD different from other stablecoins?
XSGD is fully collateralized by cash. As compared to one of the top stablecoins - USDC which is only 61% collateralized by cash. XSGD is fully transparent with its reserves and is regulatory compliant and issued under the e-money issuance framework.
How has crypto adoption in Singapore changed since XSGD was created?
XSGD was created and launched publicly in October 2020. A year later, XSGD processed over $2 billion in digital assets-related transactions. This led to XSGD rising to become one of the top non-USD denominated stablecoin.
A study on Singapore Crypto Adoption created by Gemini, CoinMarketCap and Seedly in 2021 revealed that 67% of respondents hold cryptocurrency in their portfolio. Among non-crypto holders, 34% are planning to purchase their first cryptocurrency in the next 12 months.
Why did XSGD choose to adopt the Financial Action Task Force's recommendations?
The objectives of the FATF are to set standards and promote effective implementation of legal, regulatory and operational measures for combating money laundering, terrorist financing and other related threats to the integrity of the international financial system. StraitsX places high importance on complying with the FATF as we believe that it is crucial to tackling such problems that plague the digital assets industry.
StraitsX has built a Travel Rule compliance program from the get-go while working closely with travel-rule compliance firm Notabene to ensure compliance with the travel rule at scale. The travel rule recommendation from the FATF requires that the originators and beneficiaries of all transfers of digital funds must exchange identifying information, which is aimed to help enhance the audit trail when virtual assets are transferred between entities such as exchanges and wallets.
Travel rule compliance benefits the end-user as financial authorities are better able to detect and prevent money laundering activities involving digital assets and will also help deter criminals by reducing the number of virtual asset service providers (VASPs) through which they can move funds.
What are the benefits of holding XSGD over Singapore Dollars?
As XSGD runs on open-sourced protocols, the token is interoperable and can be used as a form of payment across different ecosystems, including the Zilliqa and Ethereum blockchains. For instance, XSGD can be sent almost instantaneously across borders or swapped for other stablecoins at competitive rates. XSGD is also counted out to six decimal places, enabling micropayments while addressing a challenge faced by fiat-based digital payment systems.
Furthermore, XSGD can be used on DeFi applications on the blockchains that it supports. Use cases include being a liquidity provider for trading pools and in turn, users can earn up to 13% yield on XSGD. Users can also use XSGD to trade NFTs on the Arky marketplace which is on the Zilliqa blockchain. XSGD is looking to expand into different blockchains in the near future, enabling users to have more opportunities to use XSGD on dApps.
Who can benefit from XSGD and why? Is it useful for tourists and travellers as well as those living in Singapore?
Everyone who transacts or does business in SGD can benefit from XSGD. Singapore has the largest forex market in Asia Pacific and third-largest globally after London & New York. Forex traders can benefit from XSGD as it allows for quick swaps to other stablecoins denominated in other currencies. XSGD can also be sent almost instantaneously across borders at low costs.
What do you think the future holds for XSGD and other stablecoins more generally?
At StraitsX we believe that the future of money is both diverse and exciting, as we believe that money will be run on a very wide variety of infrastructures and networks in the future.
The future of XSGD is extremely exciting. Our intention is to make money available on many different infrastructures to support both financial inclusion and optimal user experience. Users can expect XSGD to be supported on other prominent blockchains and dApps. Furthermore, we are expanding our product offerings to provide our users with an all-in-one experience for their digital assets.
In general, the future of stablecoins remains bright. Stablecoins allow for payments to be cheaper, traceable, real-time, and frictionless compared to traditional finance. With stablecoins, businesses can accept payments globally in real-time and governments can run stimuli or taxation programs more effectively. As more merchants and businesses start to accept digital currencies, we envision consumer adoption rates will continue to increase over time.
Do you think other countries will follow suit and start issuing stablecoins supported by the government?
The MAS has also organised the Global CBDC challenge to invite financial institutions, Fintechs, technology solutions to present and develop a retail CBDC solution, where StraitsX has been named one of the 15 finalists, out of over 300 submissions from 50 countries.
The Global CBDC Challenge sought to address multiple problem statements through a variety of technology approaches including hardware wallets, digital identity and asset tokenisation solutions, invited financial institutions, FinTechs and technology solution providers to address 12 problem statements relating to CBDC Instrument, CBDC Distribution, and CBDC Infrastructure while concurrently covering topics such as inclusivity, interoperability and programmability.
In the proposed solution, the Central Bank (MAS) will leverage StraitsX's existing integration on different payment networks to issue CBDC while the underlying customer's fund will be held in the central bank. The CBDC tokens will be generated on the central bank network and issued by Financial Institutions like StraitsX. In this model, StraitsX would participate in the distribution of CBDCs while maintaining the required regulatory compliance safeguards. The XSGD smart contract is embedded with functions to terminate suspicious and illicit activities. To achieve privacy, performance and scalability, a layer-2 blockchain solution with Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP) can be used.
About StraitsX
StraitsX is the pioneering payments infrastructure for digital assets space in Southeast Asia developed by Singapore-based FinTech Xfers, which is a Major Payment Institution licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore for e-money issuance.

While I was at work, I'd received a notification that my community wireless point had gone offline – this hadn't happened since I'd switched to my new router, but regardless, I wasn't too concerned… until I got home. No interweb, then a call on my cellphone "I've been ringing and ringing – where are you?". Oh crap. It appears the phone was also dead (in my defense, what self respecting geek checks a POTS line these days?!).
On the phone to 120 and, after 2 arguments with the automated voice recognition system, I got through to the people I needed to talk to, well – the queue anyway. Fifteen minutes later I had a human on the phone and, nice chap that he was he quickly determined it was an external issue "might be a cut line out on the street or something", diverted calls to our home line over to my mobile, and told me the earliest I could expect resolution would be "around midday on Wednesday". Frick – 2 days of no web?!

Pitch clock coming for spring training games

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Major League Baseball is unilaterally starting the use of pitch clocks for spring training games, while brushing off complaints from players about the slow free agent market.
With the sport looking for ways to speed the pace of play, pitchers generally will have 20 seconds to deliver to the plate when teams play exhibition games in Arizona and Florida beginning this week. The intention is to get players and umpires accustomed to the clock in the event MLB makes the rule change for the upcoming regular season.
"We will start getting ready for the possibility that we're going to use the pitch clock on opening day," Commissioner Rob Manfred said Sunday at spring training media day in Florida. "We have to get going."
After the 2016 and 2017 seasons, players rebuffed management's proposal for a pitch clock. Owners have the right to implement one this year without consent, but Manfred has been reluctant to initiate on-field modifications without agreement from players and their union head, Tony Clark.
"We're still hopeful that we're going to make an agreement with Tony on pace-of-play initiatives," Manfred said. "I just think that whether it's by agreement or otherwise, the only prudent course for us at this point is to be in a position to proceed if in fact we have an agreement or decide to do it ... under our collectively bargained right to do that."
MLB made a unilateral decision on clocks for the exhibition season.
"We were recently notified by the commissioner's office that the pitch clock will be tested in spring games," the players' association said in a statement. "This is not the result of an agreement with the players' association. Discussions regarding several on- and off-field issues remain ongoing."
Manfred said the rules involving the clock will be "phased in" and won't start immediately with ball and strike calls. But there will be a "functional" clock in Grapefruit League and Cactus League games. Management's proposals have said a clock would not be used after foul balls.
Pitch clocks have been used in the high minors since 2015.
With spring training underway and exhibitions scheduled to start Thursday, several players around the majors have taken issue with a second consecutive slow market for free agents. They question why more teams aren't trying to win.
"It would be nice to start with the facts on this topic. There has been no meaningful change in the distribution of winning percentages in Major League Baseball," Manfred said. "Our teams are trying. Every single one of them wants to win. It may look a little different to outsiders because the game has changed, the way that people think about the game, the way that people think about putting a winning team together has changed, but that doesn't mean they're not trying."
Two of the game's biggest stars, Bryce Harper and Manny Machado remain unsigned — along with closer Craig Kimbrel and dozens of other accomplished veterans.
"There are 11 players who had a WAR (wins above replacement) above 1 last year that are unsigned. I believe that just like last year, that market is going to clear. At some point here in the next few weeks, those players are going to get signed," Manfred said. "We negotiated a system that allows the market to operate and I have every confidence that for those players that I just described, that market is going to clear before we get to playing real games."
The current economy for players is all part of the game, he insisted.
"I think it's important to remember that the Major League Baseball Players Association has always wanted a market-based system. And, markets change. Particularly when the institution around those markets change. We've had a lot of change in the game. People think about players differently. They analyze players differently. They negotiate differently. Agents negotiate differently," Manfred said.
"I think there's lots and lots of offers out there and it's a bilateral process. Players haven't accepted those offers yet. That's how a market works. So you know, we bargained for a market system, that market's out there operating, and I don't have any choice but to live with that right now."
Manfred said just because clubs don't spend big doesn't mean they aren't attempting to win.
He pointed out that Oakland and Tampa Bay, two low-payroll clubs expected to struggle in 2018, both had excellent seasons. The Athletics reached the playoffs with 97 wins, and the Rays won 90 games.
"I reject the notion that payroll is a good measure for how much a team is trying or how successful that team is going to be," he explained.
That drew the ire of Houston Astros ace Justin Verlander, who tweeted: "Agreed... finally we're on the same page! Awesome! Removal of the luxury tax it is."

Developer contributions
Developer contributions may be required as part of the process of granting planning permission, either where additional infrastructure is required, or to mitigate negative impacts.
The Community Infrastructure Levy: Introduced in 2010 to allow local planning authorities to raise funds from new development to help fund infrastructure to support the development of their area. For more information see: Community Infrastructure Levy.
Section 106 Agreements: Negotiated between local authority and developer on a case by case basis to mitigate or compensate for the negative impacts of a development or to prescribe the nature of a development. For more information see: Section 106 Agreements.
The introduction of the Community Infrastructure Levy was expected to result in the scaling back of Section 106 Agreements.
In December 2018, the government opened a consultation on changes to developer contribution rules intended to speed up housing delivery.
This includes proposals to:
Introduce a new strategic infrastructure tariff, helping fund large-scale projects which benefit multiple communities falling under a combined local authority.
Widen options for how contributions can be used by councils to benefit their residents, ensuring funds are spent on a wider range of local priorities.
Increase certainty and transparency by requiring councils to publish details about what has been collected and spent, so communities understand the benefit of development.
Ensuring the Community Infrastructure Levy responds to changes in land values, so towns and villages get appropriate contributions when planning permission is granted.
The consultation closed on 31 January 2019.
Ref https://www.gov.uk/government/news/plans-to-speed-up-new-homes-held-up-with-new-developer-contribution-rules
The government response to the consultation can be seen at: https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/developer-contributions-reform-technical-consultation
In June 2019, following the consultation, reforms were introduced requiring that councils report the deals done with developers, and how that money will be spent. Minister of State for Housing Kit Malthouse said: "Communities deserve to know whether their council is fighting their corner with developers – getting more cash to local services so they can cope with the new homes built." In addition restrictions were eased to allow councils to fund single, larger infrastructure projects with contributions from multiple developments.
The government also reported that developers were charged £6 billion in contributions in 2016/17

Yje bluetooth unavailability may happen because of either hardware failure that is check the bluetooth device you are trying to add to the computer for its health by trying it in another computer.
If found okay, then at the right hand bottom corner you will find a small arrow and clicking it will open a window full of icons one of which should be bluetooth icon. Click it and check the settings and fine tune it.
Still not functioning? Download a fresh driver for related communication port from the manufacturers site and install it. This will probably do the trick.

Scaler, an upskilling platform, raises additional capital at a valuation of more than $700M
Scaler stated Tuesday that it has raised $55 million in a new round of funding to support its international expansion, including the United States.
in Featured, Funding, News-Curated
Main Highlights:
Scaler, a Bengaluru-based education technology company that provides upskilling classes to Indian working professionals, revealed Tuesday that it had raised $55 million in a new round of funding to expand into overseas markets, including the United States.
Scaler stated that the Series B financing, headed by Light rock India, values the firm at $710 million, up from around $110 million two years ago.
Scaler also secured money from previous investors Sequoia Capital India and Tiger Global, raising the total amount to $76.5 million.
Scaler, an education technology business based in Bengaluru that offers upskilling classes to working professionals in India, announced Tuesday that it had secured $55 million in a fresh fundraising round to expand into international markets, including the United States.
Scaler said the Series B fundraising, led by Lightrock India, values the company at $710 million, up from around $110 million two years ago. Scaler also received participation from existing investors Sequoia Capital India and Tiger Global, bringing the company's total funding to $76.5 million.
According to two persons familiar with the case, Scaler got a $400 million takeover bid from Indian tech behemoth Unacademy just months ago. Scaler declined to comment on the previously unreported takeover talks. The business began as InterviewBit, an ed-tech platform that gives students information to help them succeed in interviews. According to Abhimanyu Saxena, co-founder of Scaler, InterviewBit has millions of users and is beloved among techies.
Abhimanyu Saxena's statement about Scaler:
He stated as follows: However, he explained, simply providing content is insufficient to help every individual through the process of preparing for a new job. Without access to a high-learning ecosystem, it is challenging for people to create a significant learning delta simply by consuming content. He continued by saying That the service was failing to assist those who were disadvantaged at the grassroots level.
While InterviewBit continues to operate and is one of the most popular interview prep applications in India, Scaler is the startup's namesake and marquee item seeking to solve the bigger problem. The startup offers nine- to eleven-month courses to working professionals in cohorts. Scaler educates these folks courses meant to help them develop the skills necessary to secure employment and explore new possibilities throughout this period.
Today, the startup provides classes in data science and machine learning. According to Saxena, these curricula were developed by dozens of big technology firms, including Amazon, Google, Microsoft, PayPal, Adobe, VMware, and Uber. They previously worked as a software architect at the e-commerce startup Fab.com. (Anshuman Singh, Scaler's other co-founder, formerly worked on Facebook's Messenger.)
Scaler courses typically cost around $3,350, and consumers can pay in whole or in installments via a loan from one of the non-bank financial institutions with which Scaler has partnered. (Scaler does not have an income-sharing arrangement. Saxena stated that certain parts of the income sharing scheme disfavor cohort members.)
On Scaler, students view three to four live courses each week, complete assignments, and access teaching assistants and mentors for assistance and clarification. Scaler also engages with businesses to assist its cohort members in finding and securing better employment as part of its service. He stated that individuals spend three hours or more every day on Scaler.
Scaler's objective, he stated, is to bridge the vast gap between what colleges and other institutions produce and what the IT sector requires. Scaler hires individuals that have already worked at other businesses. They are equipping them with the hard talents that the world's Amazons and Googles require.
Saxena stated that as corporations expand their hiring abroad, Scaler would assist India in shifting its narrative from a source of low-wage engineers to a source of globally competitive high-skilled personnel. He stated that the failure of legacy institutions in India's higher education sector, notably in the IT industry, has created chances for self-proclaimed status-quo disruptors such as Scaler to promote a new way of thinking that is not centered on cost arbitrage.
India, which has over 250 million school-aged children, generates over a million engineering graduates each year. Most of these folks struggle to get work, let alone the gigs they desire.
Scaler is creating a learning community that is accountable for outcomes and geared for the future of work, according to Divya Venkatavaraghavan, Principal Investor at Light rock India. He said that the business is still gathering data on the remaining members and is collaborating with a significant auditing firm. Scaler has enrolled over 15,000 persons, and approximately 6,000 have completed the program. Ninety-six percent of job seekers currently work for a tier 1 business. Amazon has hired over 300 workers, he stated.
Scaler's acquisition of new firms:
He added that the business, which claims to be profitable, intends to use the additional capital to experiment aggressively in new regions into which it is expanding, naming the United States as one of those markets. He added that scaler is also trying to acquire new firms, particularly in emerging areas, to accelerate its growth.
Shailendra J. Singh, Managing Director of Sequoia Capital (India) Singapore, stated that the most distinguishing aspect of [Scaler's] strategy is their intense focus on highly high-quality computer science education delivered through their unique approach that makes their programs practical and applicable in the workplace.
This results in an extraordinary student NPS and job placements for Scaler students. They are ecstatic to go on this adventure with them to touch the lives of so many high-potential computer programmers positively.

Q: MongoDB - Jongo - maximum value of a field with aggregation I have this type of document into my collection. I store many components which have a version.
{
   "_id" : "compagny/component_name/2.3.3",
   "type" : "action",
   "owner" : "compagny",
   "name" : "component_name",
   "version" : "2.3.3",
   "splitVersion" : {
      "major" : 2,
      "minor" : 3,
      "patch" : 3 },
    "jar" : "url...myArtifact.jar",
    "timestamp" : ISODate("2014-10-16T14:25:22.954Z"),
    "artifactKey" : "artifact-loadsupport/2.3.3"

}
I am searching a way to retrieve the latest version of a component. In other word, get the latest version of every components that have the same owner/name.
I can have my result with this agregation but the result is not well formated :
db.components.aggregate(
{$sort: {type : 1, owner : 1, name : 1, "splitVersion.major" : -1, "splitVersion.minor": -1, "splitVersion.patch" : -1} },
{$group: { _id: {owner:"$owner", name : "$name"}, version: { $first: "$version" }}}
)

I can have my result whith this aggregate but how can I have the complete document returned ? (the same like .find())
Because I map my data with Jongo, it is not easy to deal with this aggregate result...The result no map with my document class. I have to bind manually earch value...
Thanks

A: You can use what is suggested here https://stackoverflow.com/a/16662878/1333610 with $project to do this.
db.components.aggregate(
{ $sort: {type : 1,
          owner : 1,
          name : 1,
          "splitVersion.major" : -1,
          "splitVersion.minor": -1,
          "splitVersion.patch" : -1
         }
},
{$group: { _id: {owner:"$owner", name : "$name"},
            version: { $first: "$version" },
            splitVersion: { $first: "$splitVersion" },
            jar: { $first: "$jar" }
            // similarly add all the fields in your doc with $first
          }
},
{$project: {_id: 0,
             owner: "$_id.owner",
             name: "$_id.name",
             version: 1,
             splitVersion: 1,
             jar: 1
             // add all the fields you want here
            }
}
)

This works because $first stores the fields that correspond with the first match of the first field i.e. version in your case.

About City
Valencia is the capital of the autonomous community of Valencia and the third largest city in Spain after Madrid and Barcelona, with around 800,000 inhabitants in the administrative centre. Its urban area extends beyond the administrative city limits with a population of around 1.5 million people. The city has global city status. The Port of Valencia is the 5th busiest container port in Europe and busiest container port on the Mediterranean Sea. Valencia is integrated into an industrial area on the Costa del Azahar (Orange Blossom Coast). Valencia's main festival is the Falles. The traditional Spanish dish, paella, originated in Valencia.
Valencia stands on the banks of the Turia river, located on the eastern coast of the Iberian peninsula and the western part of the Mediterranean Sea, fronting the Gulf of Valencia. The Albufera, a freshwater lagoon and estuary about 11 km (7 mi) south of the city, is one of the largest lakes in Spain. Valencia has a subtropical Mediterranean climate with very mild winters with the maximum temperature during the day typically ranging from 28–34 °C (82–93 °F) and dropping to about 23 °C (73 °F) at night and long warm to hot summers with the maximum temperature during the day typically ranging from 28–34 °C (82–93 °F), about 23 °C (73 °F) at night.
Public transport is provided by the Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat Valenciana (FGV), which operates the Metrovalencia and other rail and bus services. The Estació del nord (North Station) is the main railway terminus in Valencia. A new temporary station, Estación de València-Joaquín Sorolla, has been built on land adjacent to this terminus to accommodate high speed AVE trains to and from Madrid, Barcelona, Seville and Alicante. Valencia Airport is situated 9 km (5.6 mi) west of Valencia city centre. Alicante Airport is situated about 170 km (110 mi) south of Valencia.

ANTIPOLO CITY—Paul Lee and the Magnolia Hotshots picked the perfect time to end a seven-game losing skid against defending champion Barangay Ginebra.
Lee provided most of the evidence. With Ginebra creeping to within 95-93, Lee scored 10 points—including a highlight-reel basket off a spin move through the teeth of the Ginebra defense—in the final 3:36 to put the game away and preserve the game-long heroics of Romeo Travis, who came through with a monster output of 37 points, 16 rebounds and five assists.
"We're still the underdogs. [Ginebra] still has the skills, the talent, the coach," he noted.
Meanwhile, Meralco coach Norman Black spoke about scaling mountains Friday night, after the Bolts won a sixth straight do-or-die game to rise from the No. 7 seed and book a semifinal berth. That's why Alaska coach Alex Compton is not leaving anything to chance.
"Meralco's on a huge win streak. I knew that when we beat them [in the elimination round], that was far from their best [form]," said Compton, who watched the Bolts dismiss No. 2 Phoenix , 108-103, in their quarterfinal showdown.
The Aces and the Bolts figure in a semifinal saga that comes off wraps Sunday at 6:30 p.m. at Ynares Center here.

Kalium Lake has secured approval for its proposed $216m Beyondie Sulphate of Potash Project (SOP) from the Western Australian Environmental Protection Authority (EPA).
Image: A map showing Beyondie Sulphate of Potash Project. Photo: courtesy of Kalium Lakes Limited.
The Beyondie SOP project is located 160km south, southeast of the iron ore producing town of Newman and 200km north of the base metals and gold mining areas of Wiluna.
The project comprises 15 granted exploration licenses, two mining leases and several miscellaneous licenses which cover an area of approximately 2,400km2.
Subject to certain conditions, the Western Australian environmental watchdog has recommended the state's first potash project for environmental approval.
Unlike conventional mining operation, the project involves extraction of hypersaline groundwater which is pumped to ponds. The pumped water is evaporated and the salts concentrated, with the different salts (potash is a form of salt) extracted and purified.
EPA chair Tom Hatton said that the Kalium Lakes' Beyondie project was one of five potash projects being referred to the EPA for assessment.
"While there are similarities between the proposals, each will be considered and assessed on its unique location and environmental impact.
The Beyondie SOP Project is scheduled to start operations in 2020. It is expected to become the country's first commercial SOP to enter production.
Over the operational life of more than 30 years, the project will have production rate of 164,000 tons per annum (tpa) of SOP.
The mine is expected to produce premium granular and soluble suite of products which contain more than 51% K2O and less than 0.5% Chloride.

The Electric Light Orchestra
"And it's raining all over the world
It's raining all over the world
Tonight, the longest night"
Glam Rock was 'over the top', 'in your face' and unabashedly eccentric and that's why I loved it. With a few exceptions my parents disliked it, there wasn't the melody or style that they expected in music, and that made me even more determined to enjoy it. When I first saw the Electric Light Orchestra they seemed to be the ultimate glam group – they had an eccentric name, played rock and had classical instruments – ideal for upsetting parents.
I was therefore more than a little surprised when my parents started to talk about the group. They didn't dig the music but they knew the players and even claimed that they were linked to songs like "Flowers in the Rain" that we heard every Sunday on "Family Favourites". Of course I didn't believe them but I did secretly check out what they said with my mate Geoff (he had an older brother who had copies of Melody Maker going back for years). It was only after talking to Geoff and discovering the Move that I realised the horrific truth – for the first time in my short life I had to admit that my parents knew more about trendy music than me!
It's Birmingham, February 1966 and an after-hours jam session results in the formation of a key sixties group The Move and the start of the Electric Light Orchestra. The jam involves the main players from the city's music scene – Bev Bevan, Carl Wayne, Chris "Ace" Kefford, Roy Wood and Trevor Burton. As The Move they not only produce some of the most radio friendly pop singles of the era, they also release cutting edge LPs and have a wild, heavy stage show – three different personalities within one group.
While The Move made an immediate impact in the Birmingham scene it wasn't until they joined forces with manager Tony Secunda that success in London, and nationally, became a possibility. He was the marketing and image maker that supported the creativity within the band.
Their first release "Night of Fear" hit number two in the charts ('promoted' by the group towing a fake H-Bomb around Manchester) and began a string of chart hits and publicity stunts. With hits including "Flowers in the Rain", "I Can Hear The Grass Grow" and "Blackberry Way" alongside stunts such as sending out promotional blackberry pies and champagne the group appeared to be a manufactured band.
The truth was however much more complex, their publicity was contrived, but the hits were penned by the writing genius Roy Wood and live the group were totally different. It was the mixture of attitudes and approaches that made The Move so dynamic, volatile and ultimately short-lived. The end began when Secunda went too far with his publicity stunts and released, fake, pornographic postcards of the Prime Minister – the group ended up in court and shortly after Secunda and The Move parted company. This was followed by the departure of Ace Kefford and a single "Wild Tiger Woman" that wasn't a hit. Shaken by this, perceived, failure Carl Wayne threatened to split the group unless the next song was a hit; Roy delivered in style with "Blackberry Way" but the writing was on the wall for the group and, as their live performances became a series of greatest hits, Trevor Burton left.
While live the group moved into cabaret, in the studio they were becoming more adventurous with their second album, ("Shazam", 1969), being hailed as a masterpiece. It was however Carl Wayne's swansong as he left the group in January the following year, relationships within the group had become strained and Roy was developing a new concept – the Electric Light Orchestra.
At this point Jeff Lynne joined the group and Roy took on the task of lead singer. While The Move continued to record both LPs and singles and continue to have hits the group started to take a back seat to Roy's new vision – ELO – and, in 1971, Roy, Jeff and Bev formed the nucleus of the Electric Light Orchestra. Roy had got the idea for the group while working with Tony Visconti on orchestral arrangements for Move songs but it was Jeff who gave birth to the sound with his composition "10538 Overture". Released as a single it matched the bombast of the Glam movement and reached the top ten in 1972.
Whilst their first album was critically acclaimed there were difficulties between Roy and Jeff regarding the group's direction and just after the release of "10538 Overture" Roy left the group to form Wizzard and write his own chapter in Glam Rock.
Jeff took over leadership of the group and they made a major impact at the 1972 Reading Festival. Their interpretation of Chuck Berry's "Roll Over Beethoven" became an instant classic, hit the top ten and saw them at the height of their powers with regard to Glam Rock. Their success was consolidated with "Showdown" but the subsequent single "Ma Ma Ma Ma Belle" failed to chart in the UK (despite an uncredited performance by Bolan playing lead alongside Jeff) as did "Can't Get It Out Of My Head".
Whilst ELO's star started to wane in the UK it was rising in the US where the albums "On the Third Day" and "Eldorado" saw their fan base grow. As the audiences in the UK dwindled the group concentrated on the US with extensive tours. They continued to record however and in the UK were rewarded with a top five in the form of "Livin' Thing" in December 1976 (this was the beginning of an unbroken run of 15 UK top twenty singles taken from hit albums). With the associated album "A New World Record" realising another two hits singles with "Telephone Line" and "Rockaria!" (probably their last track to capture some of the Glam ethos) ELO were back on track.
Their following album was to become a major release in the history of rock music – "Out of the Blue". Supported by a nine month sell out tour and containing the iconic "Mr. Blue Sky" this saw ELO become a global concern. At the end of 1978 they had a single, EP, album, double album and triple album box set all in the UK top fifty at the same time!
In 1979 they released the LP "Discovery". It contained "Don't Bring Me Down", their biggest ever single hit, and marked another first for the group – this was the first Electric Light Orchestra single that didn't have strings. The group had come a long way from Roy's first vision and Jeff's first composition……………
Glam Rock – A Personal Reflection by Stephen Palmer
It is with great sadness that I dedicate this blog to man who's writings made it possible. The reflections desciribed herein are of Stephen Palmer, born in 1961 and brought up in Berks and Bucks. He always loved music and always claimed that from his first Queen concert (about 77-78) to the mid 80s he averaged a gig a month. Concerts have been few and far between over the last few years due to his health but he still kept up to date with what was happening and didnt want to be stuck in the past. He was a great writer and I always looked forward to receiving his work for both of my 70s sites. He will be sadly missed but his love for music will always be here to read and hopefully inspire others.

Q: Symfony fixtures return "Invalid parameter number: number of bound variables does not match number of tokens" I have such a Doctrine fixture:
<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\DataFixtures;

use App\Entity\Tenant;
use Doctrine\Bundle\FixturesBundle\Fixture;
use Doctrine\ORM\Id\AssignedGenerator;
use Doctrine\ORM\Id\IdentityGenerator;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\ClassMetadataInfo;
use Doctrine\Persistence\ObjectManager;

final class TenantFixtures extends Fixture
{
    public function load(ObjectManager $manager): void
    {
        $tenant = new Tenant();
        $tenant->setDomain('1.example.com');
        $tenant->setName('Tenant 1');
        $manager->persist($tenant);

        $manager->flush();

        $metadata = $manager->getClassMetadata(Tenant::class);
        $metadata->setIdGenerator(new AssignedGenerator());
        $metadata->setIdGeneratorType(ClassMetadataInfo::GENERATOR_TYPE_NONE);

        $tenant = new Tenant();
        $tenant->setId(100);

        $metadata->setIdGenerator(new IdentityGenerator());
        $metadata->setIdGeneratorType(ClassMetadataInfo::GENERATOR_TYPE_AUTO);
    }
}

When I try to load it via bin/console doctrine:fixtures:load --env=test, I receive such an error:
An exception occurred while executing 'INSERT INTO tenant (name, domain) VALUES (?, ?)' with params [100, "Tenant 2", "2.example.com"]:

SQLSTATE[HY093]: Invalid parameter number: number of bound variables does not match number of tokens

How to save both entities correctly?
Note that the first one has an auto generated id, and the second one has an assigned id. This example is simplified.

The I.D. Vizzion premiere today in Berlin saw a confident Jürgen Stackmann, member of the board for the Volkswagen brand, affirming their electric mobility schedule. He also announced the launch of an all-electric car sharing with I.D. vehicles based on the new VW platform WE.
"The clock is ticking," was the opening line of Jürgen Stackmann who oversees the Volkswagen brand and who had invited reporters to witness the premiere of the I.D. Vizzion. The luxury limousine is to preside over the I.D. family eventually. Not just yet though.
So while the clock is ticking indeed, Stackmann reassured media that they were "close to making buyable products out of the vision I.D." and then issued the first feasible news – the market start for their first electric model. The I.D. will launch in spring 2020. At the same he said he wants to turn Volkswagen into "the world's most sustainable volume brand".
For all this to happen, they rely on Volkswagen's MEB platform and Stackmann confirmed they were right on course. He also announced their intention to keep electric cars at similar price levels of comparable diesel cars. Plus, those not wanting to buy might as well hire a Volkswagen EV in future.
Electric car sharing
In the course of their digitalisation, Volkswagen plans to launch a whole range of mobility services. Among them is 'We Charge'. The service both handles charging but also sharing of only electric vehicles.
Volkswagen set first fleets to launch in 2019 in Europe's largest metropolises and plan an expansion to Asia and the United States at a later date. All operations will run through Volkswagen's new WE platform.
Says Stackmann: "We are convinced that the car sharing market still has potential. That is why we offer a holistic concept from a single source that covers all mobility needs from short trips lasting a few minutes to week-long holiday trips."
This includes the option for owners to offer their I.D. models as a peer-to-peer service, Stackmann added in Berlin. Electric scooters and small electric scooters could further expand the mobility portfolio. The new electric car sharing offer is said to "complement MOIA's own Ride Hailing offer".
Jürgen Stackmann also detailed in Berlin how Volkswagen would charge their electric fleet. Long distance travel is all in the realm of the high power charging IONITY and unsurprisingly so. However, to cover charging at home and at the workplace, VW want to develop their own solutions. A so-called Volkswallbox (a wallbox for the people) could be sold worldwide at a competitive price and in conjunction with renewable energy, specified the executive. Fleet managers may also expect tailor-made charging solutions from the German carmaker.
I.D. Roadmap
While the Berlin presentation hinged on the I.D. Vizzion, it is in fact the smaller I.D. marking the start for the electric era at Volkswagen, particularly in Europe said Stackmann. It will be followed a year later in 2021 by the I.D. Crozz, an electric SUV Stackmann considers a "Conqueror" ready to take the world. The manager thus falsified earlier reports that had hoped to see I.D. Crozz as early as 2019. Stackmann also considers the I.D. Buzz nothing less than a "world market car" due for launch by 2022. Only then will follow the I.D. Vizzion that will be largely autonomous and designed to wow buyers in Asia and America first.
