Q: What XML APIs in C? Are they all this complex? : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms766497(VS.85).aspx
Just need something basic to produce XML in C.

A: I like libxml. Here is an example of use:
#include <libxml/parser.h>

int
main(void)
{

  xmlNodePtr root, node;
  xmlDocPtr doc;
  xmlChar *xmlbuff;
  int buffersize;

  /* Create the document. */
  doc = xmlNewDoc(BAD_CAST "1.0");
  root = xmlNewNode(NULL, BAD_CAST "root");

  /* Create some nodes */
  node = xmlNewChild(root, NULL, BAD_CAST "node", NULL);
  node = xmlNewChild(node, NULL, BAD_CAST "inside", NULL);
  node = xmlNewChild(root, NULL, BAD_CAST "othernode", NULL);

  /* Put content in a node: note there are special characters so
     encoding is necessary! */
  xmlNodeSetContent(node,
                xmlEncodeSpecialChars(doc, BAD_CAST "text con&tent and <tag>"));

  xmlDocSetRootElement(doc, root);

  /* Dump the document to a buffer and print it for demonstration purposes. */
  xmlDocDumpFormatMemory(doc, &xmlbuff, &buffersize, 1);
  printf((char *) xmlbuff);

}

Compiled with 'gcc -Wall -I/usr/include/libxml2 -c create-xml.c && gcc
-lxml2 -o create-xml create-xml.o', this program will display:
% ./create-xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root>
  <node>
    <inside/>
  </node>
  <othernode>text con&tent and <tag></othernode>
</root>

For a real example, see my implementation of RFC 5388.

A: Xerces is known to be easy, give it a try

A: MiniXML might be what you're looking for, if you need something simple, easy, and C:

Mini-XML: Lightweight XML Library
Mini-XML is a small XML library that
  you can use to read and write XML and
  XML-like data files in your
  application without requiring large
  non-standard libraries. Mini-XML only
  requires an ANSI C compatible compiler
  (GCC works, as do most vendors' ANSI C
  compilers) and a 'make' program.

However, there are a ton of them ranging in complexity and needs.  MiniXML is nice in that it doesn't require more than a simple Ansi C compiler.  A lot of them require other libraries, or specific compilers.
-Adam

A: The easiest way to make XML in C is the high-quality and free genx from Tim Bray: http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2004/02/20/GenxStatus

A: *

*The XML C parser of Gnome is an extensive C API for XML.

*XML Security Library is a nice C library on top of libxml2.

O-Zone: Worth every penny
JACKSONVILLE – Let's get to it …
Blues Man from Jacksonville
O-Man ... what worries me the most? Coughlin. A couple of weeks ago his comments that he would put his "gloves on" – and his steadfast philosophy of run, run, great defense and play action – are concerning to me. It's not 1970 anymore. I get that the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams are anomalies, but we have to get fresh, young minds in here to update our offense. Even when the Chiefs are not throwing the ball, at least they run plays that are innovative and creative. Sure, Coughlin helped build this franchise and won two Super Bowls, but time has since passed. The "Godification" of Coughlin is perplexing to me.
This is a common feeling among many Jaguars fans, and I understand the perception. But, remember: Coughlin won as a head coach in Jacksonville throwing a lot and he won Super Bowls with the New York Giants with Eli Manning passing effectively. While he and the Jaguars' decision-makers decided in the 2017 offseason that the best way for this team at that time to win immediately was to run effectively and play defense, Coughlin is an offensive-minded football coach/executive. He well knows you must throw effectively to win in the NFL. And while it has become vogue because of this year's losing to say that the Jaguars are antiquated and out of touch, they didn't seem quite so out of touch nine or 10 months ago. Remember, too: You can still win with defense and without scoring 40 points a game. Witness the recent surges by Seattle, Dallas and Chicago – not to mention the New Orleans Saints squeezing out decidedly defensive-oriented victories in recent weeks to stay atop the NFC. This is not to say the Jaguars don't need to get much better offensively, specifically in the passing game. It is to say that there's more than one way to get there – and that there's still more than one way to win in the National Football League.
Joseph from Sacramento, CA
Coaches can say what they want to say about continuing to coach hard, but who really cares anymore at this point?
Patrick from Nashville, TN
Can Head Coach Doug Marrone at least let Blake finish these last two games?
Not likely. Sometimes, it's time to move on. The Jaguars appear to have decided that that time has arrived with quarterback Blake Bortles.
Bob from St. Augustine, FL
Our first-round pick plus 4Net for Nick Foles, thoughts?
Maybe, though I don't know that the Philadelphia Eagles would take that deal.
Jeremy from Omaha, NE
You keep saying the Jags will address positions in the offseason. They have weaknesses all over the place. There's not enough salary-cap space to address half the problems. For the first time since we got the team, I flat-out quit watching the Jags about three games ago. It doesn't look hopeful for the franchise's future at all.
The Jaguars will have enough space and draft selections to address their needs this offseason. They may not be able to throw mega-deal, franchise-player dollars at every unrestricted free agent, and they won't have multiple first-round selections, but they will be able to address needs.
Paul from Section 216 and Fleming Island
Is it just me or did this David Williams kid look pretty good?
Jaguars first-year running back David Williams did look good against the Washington Redskins Sunday, rushing for 31 yards on four second-half carries. I expect he will get a chance to look good again Sunday when the Jaguars play the Miami Dolphins.
Chris from Roseville, CA
Why do you think Yeldon is gone after this season? He seems to do well every chance he gets, yet the Jaguars move away from him every chance they get. It doesn't make sense and seems like he will go on to bigger and better things once he gets away from the Jaguars. Good for him while bad for us, again.
I believe running back T.J. Yeldon will be gone in the offseason because reserve running back is a young man's role, and I don't believe the Jaguars considering their salary-cap situation will want to pay what Yeldon likely will draw on the open market.
Thomas from Williamsburg, VA
Not a question, just a statement. FREE TANNER LEE! #Tankforthebank
OK. #freemattscott
Sam from Winter Park, FL
What is the upside in releasing Barry Church now versus when the season is over? Financial reasons? Or just throwing a bone to a veteran player and let him see if he can make it somewhere else?
The Jaguars have been eliminated from the postseason. Church didn't play against the Tennessee Titans and he wasn't going to play in the final three games of the season. Sometimes, it's time to move on.
Ed from Ponte Vedra, FL
I know this question will sound ignorant, but at the end of the day this sport is for entertainment and no fan has been entertained lately. What's wrong with doing something totally different, like sending four receivers for a pass every so often? Even the Rockettes change their game plan every so often.
Considering how this offense is playing right now, I don't know if you would be as entertained by the Jaguars doing what you suggest as you might think.
Wade from Westside
This is the worst team the Jaguars have ever fielded.
Ha. No, it's not.
Duran from Rapid City, SD
I wrote this last week. It still applies. Fire everyone except Coughlin and let him build this team. This is a far cry from last year. Maybe it was a fluke. Either way, someone had to be held responsible as these performances have to be considered unacceptable.
Last season wasn't a fluke, and I think Coughlin will – and should – return. But he's the Executive Vice President of Football Operations and has final say over football decisions. He's as responsible as anyone for what has happened this season.
Marcus from Jacksonville
Are the Jaguars a good team that had a bad season, or are they a bad team that had a good season (last year)?
Neither. They were a good team last season that had a good season. They are a bad team this season that had a bad season, partly because of injuries and partly because of deficiencies at multiple positions that were further exposed by those injuries.
Mike from Atlanta, GA
What is the state of affairs at receiver approaching the offseason? I'd keep Marqise Lee, Dede Westbrook, and DJ Chark Jr. – and bring Allen Lazard to training camp for competition. So that would mean we need to bring in three people or more via draft and free agency. What do you think the receiving corps will look like next year?
I imagine Keelan Cole will be in training camp next offseason because there's no reason not to have him in training camp next season – and because he has shown enough potential to give him a chance to reboot from what has been a difficult sophomore season. I agree with bringing back Lee, Westbrook and Chark and believe they will be in training camp – and Lazard signed with the Green Bay Packers on Tuesday. Aside from that, I would expect an early-drafted rookie and at least one veteran. The Jaguars have a lot of work to do offensively, and receiver must be part of that work.
Jesse from Layton
What to do about officiating? How about this: Simplify the rules. The kickoff changes show that the NFL is not averse to putting some big changes in, if it improves the game or decreases injury. Make some dramatic changes to some of these rules so that making calls isn't so difficult at game speed. There are a lot of rules that can be simplified. Also, make penalties reviewable. If the CFL can do it, the NFL can too. Both those changes would have to go hand in hand obviously.
Officials are human beings. They have made mistakes in every sport and will continue to make mistakes in every sport so long as human beings officiate games. However simple the rules – and whether they are full-time or part-time – that's unlikely to change in any measurable degree.
Cole from Jacksonville
I took my four-year old son to his second Jags game Sunday. His first was last year's Seattle game (much better outcome). We drove four hours to watch the game and he had an absolute blast. From the time we got on the shuttle and he started yelling "Duval!" To meeting up at the tailgate with my college friends whom I hadn't seen since last year, to watching my son cross his heart during the national anthem and seeing his joy when Dede ran the kick back. Did the outcome suck? Yup. As far as the experience, worth every penny and you better believe we will keep coming back and cheering for our Jags because you know what? Duval Til We Die!

PITTSBURGH–Researchers led by Carnegie Mellon University Professor of Biological Sciences Chien Ho have developed a new method for preparing mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that not only leads to the production of more native stem cells, but also labels them with a FDA approved iron-oxide nanoparticle (Ferumoxytol). The technology could allow researchers to track the cells in vivo using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) during preclinical and clinical trials. The findings are published by Scientific Reports.
Stem cells, with their ability to regenerate into a multitude of different cell types, show great promise for treating a number of diseases and injuries. Stem cells taken from a patient's own body are of particular interest, due to a decreased chance of rejection. These cells are most commonly harvested from the bone marrow, which contains two types of stem cells, hematopoietic and mesenchymal.
Hematopoietic stem cells can be used to form the different types of blood cells and are used to treat leukemia and multiple myeloma. Mesenchymal stem cells can be used to generate bone, cartilage and fat cells, and have promise for repairing bone and cartilage, damaged heart cells, and treating inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
More than 360 registered clinical trials are using MSCs, but the results have been mixed, with some patients reacting well and others not responding to the stem cell treatment. To understand why these results can be so variable, researchers need to be able to track the stem cells as they migrate through the body to see if they reach and graft to the appropriate site. To do this, researchers could label the stem cells with a superparamagnetic iron-oxide (SPIO) contrast agent and image the patient using MRI.
Ferumoxytol is the only SPIO nanoparticle that has been approved by the FDA, but researchers have not been able to label MSCs with Ferumoxytol in cell culture (ex vivo) without the help of a transfection agent. Transfection agents are undesirable because they can change the cells' biology and inhibit their effectiveness. Furthermore, researchers have had difficulty culturing the large amount of cells needed for clinical dosing. Current methods also result in cells of different sizes and functionalities. Smaller, round cells are preferable because they show a higher capacity for regeneration and differentiation.
To surmount these problems, Ho and colleagues took advantage of the cell's natural ability to engulf and internalize Ferumoxytol in vivo. Ho's team developed a "bio-mimicry" method to create an environment in a petri dish that is much like the environment found inside the body. His team began by using traditional methods to extract cells from bone marrow, separate the MSCs from the other cells and expand the number of MSCs. His team then devised a new way to culture MSCs by introducing other cells from the bone marrow, mimicking the in-vivo environment. The resulting MSCs retain their optimal size and regeneration capabilities and can internalize Ferumoxytol for cell tracking. Because MSCs are multi-potent, this new methodology can prepare more native cells for applications in cell therapy and regenerative medicine.
Additional study authors include Li Liu, Lanya Tseng, Qing Ye and Yijen Wu from Carnegie Mellon's Department of Biological Sciences, and Daniel J. Bain from the Department of Geology and Environmental Science at the University of Pittsburgh. The research was funded by the National Institutes of Health's National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (EB-001977).

BUT THE BOOK
Paranormal Properties
Published by Pants On Fire Press.
Winner of the 2014 Next Generation Indie Book Awards
Accelerated Reader Book - AR Quiz No. 163449 EN - 5 Points
Jake Weir, while on the set of his parents ghost hunting TV show, agrees to help a ghost investigate a 61 year-old murder.
Jake Weir is not like the other kids in Dusk, North Carolina. Then again, Dusk, North Carolina is not like other cities. Known as one of the most haunted cities in America, behind Salem, Massachusetts and New Orleans, Louisiana, Dusk is ground zero for Jake's ghost hunting parents.
The Weir family has arrived in Dusk eager to scope out some of the town's 127 reported "paranormal properties," which just happens to be the name of their own ghost hunting show: Paranormal Properties. What Jake doesn't know, and what his parents could never imagine, is that Jake can see ghosts! And hear them. And talk back to them! This talent comes in handy when he runs into Dusk's oldest, most famous ghost: one Frank Barrone, a one-time lounge singer made famous by his booze-soaked ballad, "Barroom Eyes."
Frank was gunned down by a local mobster in 1951 and has been searching for his killer ever since. When he learns that Jake can see and hear him, Frank makes young Jake a deal: if Jake will help Frank find his killer, Frank will help his parents find a ghost to film for their upcoming Halloween Special on Public Access Channel #319. Jake enlists the only friend he's made in Dusk, an overweight tomboy nicknamed "Tank," to help him track down Frank's killer. As clues emerge and old leads heat up, Frank and Jake learn they make quite a team. But will Jake find Frank's killer? And will Frank find a real haunted house in time for Halloween?
Available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
Sinister Sites: Paranormal Properties Book 2
As far as Jake Weir is concerned, he's living the high life. Paranormal Properties, his parents' ghost-hunting show, has been picked up by the popular Scream Channel, and if their new high-rise apartment on San Francisco Bay is anything to go by, the future is definitely looking bright. However, that future depends on one important thing: the success of Paranormal Properties' first official episode. If Jake and his family can prove themselves with an exciting, successful premiere, they get to stay with the Scream Channel – if not, well, Jake doesn't want to imagine going back to the desperate life they used to live. To succeed, the Weirs are going to have to tackle their biggest case yet.
Old, infamous, and abandoned for decades, the Balthazar Hotel is thought to be the eternal prison of its inhabitants, victims of a terrible fire that nearly destroyed the hotel in 1921. The Balthazar holds many secrets, and many memories, and as the Weirs investigate the mysteries surrounding the hotel in a race to complete the first episode, they quickly learn that things are much more complicated, and more dangerous, than they seem. Even with the help of his obstinate best friend Tank, and the fearless gangster ghost Frank Barrone, Jake starts to wonder if saving Paranormal Properties is worth it, if they may not even get out of the Balthazar Hotel alive.
Entwined Courage
Aurora Turnleaf has lived her whole life hearing fairy tales of mysterious lands, magical beings, and crystal towers. She thought nothing of them until the day she stumbles upon a magnificent city, deep within the woods, built entirely of clear crystal. There she meets Kayne, a mage apprenticed to a dark wizard named Kronos. Unbeknownst to Aurora, Kayne has just stolen the Ythra Orb from the Hallowed Hall on behalf of his master. Knowing that Kronos means to use the Orb for evil, Kayne hides it in Aurora's pack to keep it from him. Suddenly Aurora is thrust into a life or death journey to help Kayne find the mystical land of Morgis, home to the Oracles who first created the Orb, in hopes that they can secure its safety against Kronos.
Along the way, the two teens from very different worlds must learn to work together to overcome obstacles, one of them being their mutual attraction.
The Last Destruction (under the pen name L.W. Farley)
Orion is proud to be an upholder of the town of River Edge, protecting the citizens, especially the weakest among them, from the havoc wreaked by the Last Destruction, the nuclear war that ended the civilization of the past. But when one of the town's leaders, Forebearer Adena, assigns him to guard her children during the Census Games—a gladiatorial spectacle designed to rid the town of undesirables while providing both entertainment and deterrent for the citizens—a chain of events is set off which will forever change the fate of not only Orion, but the entire civilization.

Halloween is but a week away
By Student Voice
Oh how times flies when one is immersed in a sea of papers, midterms, campus threats and part-time jobs; put your pencils down and buy that Rick Grimes or Jack Torrance outfit you have been eyeing because Halloween is but a week away.
A neat feature of being a member of the UW-River Falls campus community is that a number of campus organizations are here to make Oct. 31 a special day for all.
Thanks to an especially elongated J-term, UWRF students do not get a weekday off from the classroom until Thanksgiving. So, now is as good a time as any to take a breather and instead of hitting the books, hit a haunted trail, take the Joker's advice and put a smile on that pumpkin, bake some Jack Skellington cupcakes, and enjoy All Hallows' Eve in style.
Halloween is rarely on a Friday, even more reason to let loose and have some good old fashioned fun (the safe kind) on and off campus next weekend. One of the best campus traditions is the "Haunted Hall," which takes place in the appropriately named Grimm Hall. The event has been around for over 10 years and nonperishable food items are encouraged and later donated to the appropriate non-profit organization.
Little did you know that Falcon Outdoor Adventures is holding a pumpkin carving and s'mores event on Tuesday, Oct. 28, at the University Center fire pit. It's free, bonfires are awesome, carving pumpkins is tradition and who doesn't like s'mores?
Elsewhere, the Dairy Club is hosting a haunted pavilion at the Campus Farm on Halloween with the Crops and Soils Club selling pumpkins. A story will be released next Friday, just in time for Halloween, giving more details about the upcoming event.
Word on the street is that the Literary Society is hosting a "Murder Mystery Party" on Halloween night, which can always be loads of fun. Murder mystery dinners are sporadically held on campus, but being on Oct. 31, only adds to the fun. Fans of "Clue" and "How to Host a Murder" should find subtle delights in what the Literary Society is trying to accomplish.
Heck, even some campus buildings have been deemed "haunted." Retired UWRF journalism Chair Michael Norman, author of eight "haunting" novels, wrote about a ghost citing in the Kleinpell Fine Arts building many years ago. The ghost story details the sighting of deceased UWRF speech professor Sanford Syse in the Blanche Davis Theatre.
According to ghostsofamerica.com, which may or may not be entirely unreliable, a male professor hung himself from the ceiling in South Hall many years ago, while the janitorial staff has, over the years, recorded many unexplained things like getting "touched" in the South Hall attic. Again, this is all speculation, but spooky nonetheless.
By the way, Halloween would be an appropriate time to dress up in a clown costume, not on the evening of Oct. 14, just to be clear.

Mayors Oppose Question 1, and more...
Mayors Across Massachusetts Announce Opposition to Question 1
Six mayors from across the Commonwealth are the latest to publicly urge voting NO on Question 1 on the state's November ballot. Led by Melrose Mayor Gail Infurna, a registered nurse, the mayors last week sent a joint letter urging other municipal leaders to oppose the rigid nurse staffing ratio mandate proposed in the ballot question. If approved, this dangerous, one-size-fits-all measure will increase costs for community hospitals by hundreds of millions of dollars and force some of the most vulnerable hospitals to close.
Mayors Paul Heroux of Attleboro, Robert Hedlund of Weymouth, Jon Mitchell of New Bedford, Donna Holaday of Newburyport and Mark Hawke of Gardner also signed the letter. All six mayors represent cities that are home to a local hospital and cite the mandate's lack of flexibility for rural or small community providers - holding them to the same staffing ratios as major Boston teaching institutions - as a major concern.
"We have joined the Coalition to Protect Patient Safety, the American Nurses Association of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Medical Society, and other leading healthcare organizations in opposition to this misguided, dangerous proposal and are urging our fellow mayors to do the same," the letter reads. "We are concerned by the many negative impacts this proposed law would have on our local hospitals and the communities they serve, especially outside of the Boston metro area."
Leading nursing and other state and local healthcare organizations, as well as nearly 50 business associations, have joined the Coalition to Protect Patient Safety in opposing Question 1 in order to protect the Massachusetts healthcare system and its patients from the consequences of this rigid and costly mandate. "Vote NO on 1!" bumper stickers, buttons, lawn signs and more can now be ordered or reserved on the Coalition's website here.
Mass. Hospitals Included in US News & World Report "Best Hospitals"
Last week, U.S. News & World Report released their popular annual "Best Hospitals" rankings, which evaluate hospitals across the country both overall and in 16 medical specialties.
Massachusetts General Hospital was ranked #4 and Brigham and Women's Hospital #20 overall nationally, earning them spots on the U.S. News annual Honor Roll. Boston Children's Hospital was ranked the #1 children's hospital in the country for the 5th year running.
Massachusetts hospitals were also named among the top hospitals regionally, including Baystate Medical Center, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Lahey Hospital & Medical Center, Tufts Medical Center, Boston Medical Center, and Southcoast Health.
Other MHA member hospitals recognized for excellence in one or more medical specialty included: McLean Hospital at #1 for psychiatry; Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital/MGH, ranked #2 for rehabilitation; Dana-Farber/Brigham and Women's Cancer Center, ranked #4 for cancer care; and Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary/MGH, which was ranked #4 for ophthalmology and #6 for Ear, Nose, and Throat care.
MHA's own PatientCareLink website also provides important quality and patient safety information for patients, caregivers and loved ones. Among other things, PCL has detailed information about staffing plans for nearly every hospital unit in Massachusetts, as well as hospital-specific results on quality performance measures, and certain nationally recognized best practices from the federal government's Hospital Compare website and Hospital Improvement Innovation Network.
Governor Baker Signs Opioid and Alzheimer's Legislation
Last week, Gov. Charlie Baker signed two pieces of legislation of interest to the hospital community – a first-in-the-nation law designed to improve the diagnosis and treatment of individuals with Alzheimer's and other dementias, and the latest effort to further address substance use disorder prevention and treatment in the state.
The Alzheimer's law includes a requirement that all Massachusetts hospitals have detailed operational plans in place by 2021 for patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease and various kinds of dementia. Pat Noga, RN, PhD, MHA's Vice President for Clinical Affairs, noted MHA's support for the new law and said the association and member hospitals, in collaboration with the Alzheimer's Association, are already moving forward with this effort, and MHA will be releasing recommended guidelines in the early fall for hospitals to utilize in implementing such plans.
The opioid law requires hospitals to offer Opioid Agonist Treatment (OAT) for opioid use disorders, and ensure that patients are connected to critical continuing services. It also clears licensed certified social workers and other licensed healthcare providers to administer substance use disorder evaluations (SUDEs) in hospital emergency departments, streamlines reporting on the frequency and location of SUDEs, and calls for integration of the state's prescription monitoring program (MassPAT) into all hospitals' electronic medical record systems. There is also specific language allowing partial-fill prescriptions for certain narcotic drugs, while permitting patients to obtain the remainder of the prescription later, if necessary, at no additional cost.
Steve Walsh, MHA's president & CEO, said "MHA and the hospital community stand as committed partners to the legislature, Governor Baker and his administration, and all other healthcare stakeholders to implement this comprehensive legislation, which we believe will support the needs of patients and help defeat the scourge of opioid addiction."
Caring for the Caregiver Update
Over the past year, MHA has worked with its members across the commonwealth to address issues of workplace safety and wellbeing. Part of this effort has involved the creation of MHA's Promoting Employee Wellbeing Committee, and launch of the "Caring for the Caregiver" initiative.
With its mission to acknowledge the valued contributions of hospital staff and support them with resources to enhance the safety of their work environment and well-being, the "Caring for the Caregiver" initiative is focusing on three areas:
• Employee Recognition & Gratitude
• Workplace Safety
• Employee Wellbeing
Now, throughout the Massachusetts hospital community, efforts are proceeding – in various stages – to create programs to advance these three core pillars. Members and key stakeholders have contributed to the unveiling of a new webpage on MHA's PatientCareLink website featuring resources, step-by-step guides, and best-practices that are now underway. For example, the site contains samples of employee recognition and award programs, resources to prevent violence in the workplace and models for workplace wellness programs to promote employee wellbeing. Please visit the Caring for the Caregiver site often to view the accumulating resources and gain ideas and inspiration for your organization.
WalletHub Rates Best States to Have a Baby: Massachusetts is #2
Online financial analyst WalletHub is out with its latest national healthcare evaluation – the best places in America to have a baby – and the report ranks Massachusetts 2nd nationwide. To determine where the best places were in America to have a child, WalletHub compared the 50 states and the District of Columbia across 26 key measures including cost, accessibility and family-friendliness. The report showed New England was the best region of the country to have a baby, with four of the top six states in the rankings located in the region, and all New England states listed in the top 17.

The Gaslamp Killer Sues Rape Accusers for Defamation
Filed to:The Gaslamp Killer
via Ethan Miller/Getty Images
Last month, Los Angeles-based producer The Gaslamp Killer, real name William Benjamin Bensussen, was accused of drugging and raping two women in 2013. Bensussen denied the allegations, but the reaction from his affiliates and promoters was swift; his former record label Brainfeeder and the event collective Low End Theory both distanced themselves from Bensussen.
Now, Pitchfork has confirmed that Bensussen is suing the two women (and one of their boyfriends, who shared the story) for defamation. He's seeking at least $5 million in damages, claims the incident was consensual, and that the allegations were "malicious and fabricated." Pitchfork obtained the complaint, which relies on accounts from two witnesses who were allegedly with Bensussen that night:
The complaint presents two alleged witnesses—"Christopher S." and "Peter R." Christopher claims that he watched Bensussen obtain the drinks, that he "could see the drinks the entire time," and that he didn't see Bensussen "spike, tamper with, or put anything in the drinks." Christopher also claimed that the two women approached Bensussen about having sex. Peter R., Bensussen's housemate, claimed that the two women walked out of the house with Bensussen "under their own power and did not appear incapacitated."
We've reached out to Bensussen for comment, and will update this post if we hear back.

Q: Hi I want the file name using filelistentityprocessor and lineentityprocessor   This is my data-config.xml. I can't use Tika EntityProcessor. Is there any way I can do it with LineEntityProcessor?

I am using solr4.4 to index million of documents . i want the file names and modified time to be indexed as well . But couldnot find the way to do it.
In the data-config.xml I am fetching files using filelistentityprocessor and then parsing each and every line using lineentityprocessor.
<dataConfig>
    <dataSource encoding="UTF-8" type="FileDataSource" name="fds"  />

<document>
    <entity
                name="files"
                dataSource="null"
                rootEntity="false"
                processor="FileListEntityProcessor"
                 baseDir="C:/Softwares/PlafFiles/"
                fileName=".*\.PLF"
                recursive="true"

             >
               <field column="fileLastModified" name="last_modified" />

    <entity name="na_04"
            processor="LineEntityProcessor"
            dataSource="fds"
            url="${files.fileAbsolutePath}"
            transformer="script:parseRow23">

         <field column="url" name="Plaf_filename"/>
        <field column="source"  />
        <field column="pict_id" name="pict_id" />

          <field column="plaf_line" />

    </entity>
    </entity>

</document>
</dataConfig>

A: From the documentation of FileListEntityProcessor:

The implicit fields generated by the FileListEntityProcessor are fileDir, file, fileAbsolutePath, fileSize, fileLastModified and these are available for use within the entity [..].

You can move these values into differently named fields by referencing them:
<field column="file" name="filenamefield" />
<field column="fileLastModified" name="last_modified" />

This will require that you have a schema.xml that actually allows those two names.
If you need to use them in another string / manipulate it further before inserting:
You're already using files.fileAbsolutePath, so by using ${files.file} and ${files.fileLastModified} you should be able to extract the values you want.
You can modify these values and insert them into a specific field by using the TemplateTransformer and referencing the generated fields:
<field column="filename" template="file:///${files.file}" />


Easi-Kensington artificial grass is the ideal choice for a family who has children or pets. Due to a recent breakthrough in yarn technology, Easigrass have managed to develop a brand new product that is perfect for gardens with high footfall.
Easi-Kensington has a brand new C-shaped yarn, this new design looks beautiful but at the same time, it means that the grass is able to stand more upright for a longer amount of time. The way the grass is designed also means that it will spring back into shape time after time. While resilient this built-in 'memory function' just helps with keeping this grass as low maintenance as possible which means you will have to brush it far less than the average artificial grass.
Easi-Kensington also comes with the standard 'dead grass infill' to ensure your garden has an authentic look while also being rugged and keeping its shape while the family is out enjoying the garden. Due to the C-Shape of this grass, it also means that the grass reflects some more of the sunlight so it will store less heat then the average artificial grass, ideal if your garden gets lots of sunlight.
So if you are looking for a stunning look for your garden when you want to relax in the summer while not needing to keep up the high levels of maintenance of regular gardens then this is a great choice. If you have children who aspire to be the next big name in the sporting world then this is the perfect choice to ensure your garden stays looking beautiful while at the same time not having any mud dragged through your house after a lively play session.


In November last year, we opened a consultation to seek the views of parents and staff on a proposal to admit Primary aged children to Rainham from September 2020. Rainham School for Girls is one of the highest performing, non-selective secondary schools in Medway and we had believed that extending the age range would allow Primary children access to this outstanding provision. However, after taking into account the views shared during the consultation, we have made the decision not to proceed. We would like to thank all those who shared their feedback.
Based on the above decision, the attached admission policy for 2020 has been determined unchanged from 2019, with the exception of a change of wording to the distancing criteria to correctly reflect the position at Medway relating to transition and to clarify our process for in-year admissions. This does not constitute a change to practice.

The main theme of the meeting will be the exploration, using the best mouse models of the major human cancers, of questions related to the target cells for tumor development, the genetic basis to tumor susceptibility, sequential somatic genetic changes during tumor initiation promotion and progression, comparative mouse-human cancer genetics, the role of stromal/accessory cells, the immune response and cancer, and approaches to early detection using imaging or surrogate markers. A major objective will be to emphasize the parallels between mouse models and human cancers, and the advantages of these models to address questions related not only to the basic biology, but also to more practical aspects of gene discovery and therapy. Two of the sessions will be on the functions of stromal/endothelial/immune cells in cancer development to explore non-cell autonomous effects in tumor growth.

Norman Klenman (1923-)
Norman Klenman
Year Born:
Norman Klenman was born in Brandon, Manitoba on August 2, 1923. In 1934, the family moved to Vancouver, British Columbia. Klenman attended Kitsilano Junior and Senior High School, where he developed an interest in journalism, writing for the school's monthly broadsheet KHS Life and reporting on junior sports for The Vancouver Province.
After graduating in 1942, he took first year Arts at the University of British Columbia (UBC) before joining the Royal Canadian Air Force in March 1943. In 1945 he graduated as a Pilot Officer, Observer (Navigator B Coastal Command), and briefly taught at Stevenson Field in Winnipeg. Klenman returned to UBC in September 1945 and majored in English and History.
Over the next few years he wrote sports columns for The Vancouver Sun, magazine articles and CBC radio dramas. After graduating with an M.A. in 1949, Klenman joined Reuters News Agency in London and also wrote a series of children's plays for BBC Television. Upon the invitation of the National Film Board of Canada (NFB), Klenman moved to Ottawa in 1952, and spent the next three years writing film documentaries and short dramas.
In 1954, he left the NFB and moved to Toronto to write freelance and to work for CBC Television as a series head writer (show-runner) for documentary, variety, public affairs and drama programs. In 1958 he formed Klenman-Davidson Productions Ltd. with William Davidson to produce two Canadian feature films, Now That April's Here (1958) and The Fast Ones (1959). In 1964, Klenman was recruited by Westinghouse Network to write for the Steve Allen Show in Los Angeles, and later ABC Television invited him to write for the Les Crane Show in New York. The following year the Klenman family moved to Sherman Oaks, California, where they retained a residence until 1989, although Klenman spent the majority of his time in Vancouver after 1975.
In California, Klenman was primarily a freelance writer for television networks and film studios, although he worked for a short time as a writer for the 20th Century Fox Studio and became a series staff writer for Universal Studios, working on the serial drama The Survivors. He also wrote for the Canadian television series The Starlost in 1973.
Norman's broad range of writing experience in Canada, the U.S. and Britain made him aware that writers for television in Canada were significantly undervalued, and over several years in the 1950s he was a leader in securing the formation of the International Writers Union, and having Canadian writers given the same recognition and respect as was accorded to the actors for whom they wrote. Norman was instrumental in achieving the signing of the first Writers contract with the CBC, under the umbrella of ACTRA, an achievement of which he was justly proud.
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Klenman formed Galanty Productions Limited (Galanty Limited), Bull and Bear Productions, The Canadian Kinetoscope Company Limited, Canadian Cinematographic Productions Limited and The Canadian Talking Picture Company Limited, with Daryl Duke and Edgar Cowan. These Toronto-based companies produced several hour-long 3 documentary programs for CTV, and Galanty Productions Limited was a founding partner of CITY-TV in Toronto in the late 1960s.
In 1975, Klenman and Duke established Western Approaches Limited, which acquired a license to open the independent Vancouver television station CKVU-TV in 1976. In 1989, they sold their interest in the station to CanWest Broadcasting. In 1990, Klenman retired to Salt Spring Island and published the internet journal The Salt Spring Island Tatler for ten years. In retirement, Klenman continues to edit other screen writers' work and has completed several original feature film screenplays of his own. He currently resides in Surrey, British Columbia

Thanks again to the wonderful Kathryn Bacasmot for providing a literary amuse-bouche in advance of this weekend's feast: Tapas. An appetizer or snack; something that both satisfies and stimulates the palate. This program, and its arrangement, is a nod to historical concert protocol. In the late 18th and into the 19th century, it was not uncommon to attend a concert where the movements of a work were not performed in sequence, but presented piecemeal, interspersed with movements from other works, or short works of other genres (a vocal work juxtaposed with movements from a work for chamber or full orchestra, for example). An even older practice was that of improvising at the keyboard before launching into a set work. These improvisations, when put on the printed page, became known as "ricercar" (to seek/search), and "prelude" (an introduction/preliminary). Here, the Françaix preludes, which were intended to be performed consecutively, serve a more original purpose of whetting the musical appetite for what is to follow. In this case, Hindemith, Grieg, Rossini, and Corelli. The first prelude welcomes us to the show, followed by the second which introduces the first act, and similarly with the next three, and then the sixth, both a finale, and prelude to the rest of the evening.
Michael Unterman, the Crier who designed the program, expounds on the concept: "The second prelude, Elegia, is a cello solo which avoids the anguished part of most elegies, but instead inhabits a dusky and mysterious thing, which I thought blended well with the Hindemith. The Scherzo is playful and jumpy, and in G major which goes great with Holberg. The Intermezzo is an especially perfect pairing with the Rossini, as both feature extremely charming bass solos and upbeat characters. Sogno means dream, and is the prettiest movement of the bunch, and so I decided it could use some cheering up with the Corelli, which opens up gently and sweetly before becoming exuberant. It's kind of been a secret goal of mine to end a program with Corelli, because he's really the godfather of the string orchestra, and was such a huge influence on composers that came after him. And this particular concerto grosso is ostensibly in his "suite" format with dance movements etc, which should sort of... recall the Hindemith, Grieg and Françaix, which are all suites of sorts, and of course the Rossini owes a lot of its style and lineage to his fellow Italian predecessor."
EDVARD GRIEG 1843-1907 :: Holberg Suite The subtitle to Holberg Suite is "suite in the old style." Historically, the musical structure of a suite stretches back to the 16th and 17th centuries and always consists of a prelude or overture followed by a sequence of music for a variety of dance forms. Grieg chose sarabande, gavotte, air, and a rigaudon, a slight departure from the more standard selections of allemande, courante, sarabande, and gigue.
Grieg composed the suite in honor of the 200th anniversary of the birth of Ludvig Holberg, a Danish-Norwegian playwright born in 1864. It has been noted that Holberg was born one year before Johann Sebastian Bach, George Frideric Handel, and Domenico Scarlatti (1685 was a very big year for music). Though it is not known for sure if this historical fact influenced Grieg to write a Baroque style suite, it certainly would make sense for Grieg to have made that compositional connection. Originally written for solo piano in 1884, Holberg Suite was arranged for strings the following year.
GIOACCHINO ROSSINI 1792-1868 :: String Sonata #2, in A major We think of Rossini as the composer of operas, and it is usually brushed over in conversation that he was just as precocious a youngster at composing as were Mozart, Beethoven, or Mendelssohn. These sonatas were written over a summer spent with a wealthy patron, Agostino Triosso. Rossini was twelve years old. In the sonatas, the rising popularity of the double bass, due to the popularity of its virtuoso, Domenico Dragonetti, is evidenced with the omission of the viola in favor of the bass (Triosso was also an amateur double bass player, cementing the motivation for the instrumentation).
Arcangelo Corelli 1653-1713 :: Concerto Grosso op. 6, no. 11, in B-flat major An Italian violinist and conductor of "unparalleled" influence, Corelli enjoyed popularity during his own lifetime. As Michael Talbot has noted, "Corelli's influence and reputation spread as much through the dissemination of his works, which coincided with the remarkable boom in music publishing around 1700, as through his teaching. The sheer number of reprints of his collections is unmatched before Haydn: op.1, for example, went through 39 known editions between 1681 and 1790 (not counting collective editions of opp.1–4 and innumerable arrangements, selections and pastiches for all manner of instruments and even voices). The most popular opus was the fifth, of which at least 42 editions had appeared by 1800. In England, particularly, his op.6 concertos were regarded as classics; they continued to be played, and preferred even to those of Handel, well into the 19th century." He was, "the first composer to derive his fame exclusively from instrumental composition," particularly the genres of trio sonata, sonata, and concerto.
The first eight of Corelli's 12 concerti grossi are modeled after the so called "sonata da chiesa," or church sonata, whilst the final four are in the style of the "sonata da camera," or chamber sonata, and include popular dance forms one would also find in suites (in the case of no. 11, the allemande, sarabande, and gigue). Concerti grossi are about textures and depth perception. The interplay of concertino (smaller groupings of instruments or true solo passages) and ripieno (the entire ensemble) shift the focus, like a watching a film go from wide establishing shots to zeroing in, highlighting specific conversations.

"India launched the Regional Connectivity Scheme to get more people flying in what is already the world's fastest growing aviation market. Under the scheme, the government has capped fares and is offering incentives to attract airlines to fly less traversed routes. The government will also provide Rs. 2.05 billion for financial support to boost airline travel between smaller cities," Sinha told media here.

"There are five regional airlines that have been selected like Air Deccan, Air Odisha, Alliance Air, SpiceJet and Turbo Megha have emerged winners in the first round of bidding under Regional Connectivity Scheme (RCS). The total viability gap fund which government estimates it will have to pay is to tune of Rs. 205 crore for RCS," Sinha added.

Civil Aviation Minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju asserted that 13 airports in Tier II and Tier III cities which did not have many flights in a week will see more flights.
"Forty three airports are likely to get flights under regional air connectivity scheme of Government. Besides 13 airports in tier ii and tiers iii cities which did not have many flights in a week will see more flights," said Raju.
Civil Aviation Secretary, R. N. Choubey claimed that the Centre is waiting for the Tamil Nadu government to sign an MoU for RCS flights to start between Salem and Chennai.
"The Centre is waiting for the Tamil Nadu government to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for RCS flights to start between Salem and Chennai. The state government says it is open for this flight, but has not formally signed the MoU to start operations. The initial proposals cover 65 airports, of which 52 are unserved and 13 underserved," said Choubey.
Eleven bidders had submitted 45 initial proposals covering more than 200 Regional Connectivity Scheme routes under the Ude Desh ka Aam Nagrik (UDAN) scheme which seeks to encourage common people to fly.
January 16 was the last date for submission of initial proposals for operations under the UDAN scheme. (ANI)

What It Was Like At The Taylor Swift Mural
Story from Entertainment
How Taylor Swift Pulled Off Her Biggest Surprise Yet, According To A Swiftie Who Was There
Kathryn Lindsay
Photo: Leah Puttkammer/Getty Images.
I thought I was a big Taylor Swift fan until I heard about the fans who showed up to an unidentified mural in Nashville on Thursday morning. They all knew, as if by telepathy (but actually through subtle clues) that something was happening in the city's Gulch neighbourhood around 11 a.m., and that Taylor Swift would be there.
The stop at the mural is one of many stunts Swift has pulled ahead of the release of new music Thursday night, which she confirmed in an Instagram story before the event. Previously, clues about what was coming were limited to cryptic, sparkly Instagram photos captioned with only "4.26" — tomorrow's date. Next, she's sitting down with Robin Roberts to discuss her first release since Reputation, presumably, but this morning it was all about the fans.
At first glance, the mural, painted by Kelsey Montague, seemed just like any other by the viral artist. However, it was the colours and sparkles and cats that drew almost 500 Swift fans to its alter, according to 29-year-old attendee Lauren Sherrill. Sherrill, who works in Finance Operations, was tipped off by a friend of a friend and apologized for "still shaking" when she told Refinery29 about the experience.

Refinery29: How did you figure out Taylor Swift was going to be there?
LS: "I found out from a friend. She has a friend who works for one of the news stations and then she also works at Warner Music, so she had a couple of inside tips."
How do you think other people figured it out?
"Not sure how much you know, but murals in Nashville are a really big thing. This one had a bunch of cats in it and the colour scheme went along with her recent posts, so people just started assuming."
So... @kelseymontagueart helped me pull off the best surprise clue reveal today in Nashville!! Thank you to everyone who showed up, I've never been more proud of your FBI level detective skills. Next clue: I'll be joining the magnificent @robinrobertsgma for a chat tonight on ABC live from Nashville 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
A post shared by Taylor Swift (@taylorswift) on Apr 25, 2019 at 11:30am PDT
When did you arrive and did you have to wait long?
"I got there right before 11:00 a.m. and she came on around 11:50 a.m. I think a bunch of people were there closer to 10."
What was the energy of the crowd?
"The energy was amazing. There were security guys on top of a few surrounding buildings, so we knew it was for real happening, we just didn't know exactly when. For a while we thought it could be a publicity stunt, but then she posted on Instagram right before arriving and everyone freaked out! One person saw it and screamed and everyone had their phones out and started watching it."
How did everyone react when Taylor Swift arrived?
"When she arrived the entire crowd went crazy. You would have thought 1000 people were there but it was probably less than 500. Everyone was just screaming and kept saying, 'She is SO pretty.' As if none of us knew that already. She spent the entire time going around, taking people's phones, and taking selfies with individuals and of her with the crowd in the background. She spent almost a whole hour individually talking to people in the crowd and taking pictures. It was so cool."
What was your favourite moment from the event?
"My favourite moment was when she hugged a girl who was literally shaking and crying with joy. Taylor took a few pictures with her and was so sweet. We didn't know what to expect and she didn't give us any other clues about the big secret, but she was just genuinely excited that all of us had gotten wind of this clue and were there to support. Apparently the girl who painted the new mural had no idea what it was for. She was given instructions and she followed them. I thought that was super cool, too."
What are some of the clues you've picked up on?
"The mural itself was a clue. I guess it is all of these posts she has been doing over the past couple of weeks. The word 'ME!' in the mural is probably a clue. But people think it means Midnight Eastern, like when she might drop the song/album or whatever it is that is going on."
What are you most excited about for Taylor's new music?
"All of her albums are so different from the last. I can't wait to see what she does with this one. I'm sure whatever it is I will listen to it beginning to end a million times."

The Two Week Wait. Some of you have no idea what I mean. Some, are fully aware of the emotional impact behind those three innocuous words: Two Week Wait. The countdown between hope, and failure. The countdown between silent anticipation, and the devastating blow of another failed month. This is the ongoing monthly battle with infertility.
This war raging against my emotions which can potentially destroy every ounce of faith I ever thought I had; or … it is the thing which pulls me closest to God. Since we first started TTC (trying to conceive) I have experienced both of these extremes, and everything in between.
I mean, let's be honest, I know that having children is not a right we're entitled to, despite how some women behave, children are a gift from God. But I don't mind admitting how badly I struggle when I read verses like, "The fruit of the womb is a reward" Psalm 127:3 or "women will be saved through the giving of birth to children" 1 Timothy 2:15. It causes me to wonder what I have done wrong for God to withhold His blessing from me.
I know God doesn't work like that, because He is faithful to forgive us when we mess up, sin and truly repent. He has good gifts He wants to bestow upon us. But this kind of on-going journey to conceive my own baby is relentless. It tests everything I believe. It pulls at everything I have ever been taught in Church, Sunday School or in my own studies.
And this is why I have to draw close to God, because I have nothing else to hold onto but Him. At first, I tried to make doctrine, theology, good song lyrics and positive sermons my foundation for strength in the battle. But I've realised that none of these are actually God (surpriiise!!). He alone is my hope as I face the fear of failing each month. He is my security when I consider a future without a child of my own. He is my strength when I collapse in a heap at the unfairness of another month going by without the "happy ending" my heart longs for. I have to turn my eyes to Him. I have to hold onto Him. I have to allow Him to be my everything – even above Hubby.
I don't have any guarantee of a happy ending to my journey, I only have the guarantee God will walk each step with me, and when I need Him to, He'll carry me.

Thank you Mel for posting this talk by Sheridan. I remember listening to him at the New Media Conference last year, and he is a great communicator. I so relate to what he was saying... Do you mind if I post a link to this on my blog, please?
Thanks Mandy, I heard John Piper speak this last year, and was really encouraged by what he had to say, so thank you for the reminder! It's funny how we do try to hide stuff from ourselves, as well as from those around us!

It's a simple concept with a tricky solution.
This tricky brainteaser challenges you to figure out which 16 triangle-shaped pieces fit inside this puzzle.
The corners of the puzzle pieces can only touch another icon of the same type (e.g., ladybug with ladybug).
Four puzzle pieces will not be used, so make sure you keep track.
Keep reading to see the solution below.
If you consider yourself a logic puzzle master, you'll want to try your hand at this tricky brainteaser. Just be warned: It's harder than it looks.
The corners of the puzzle pieces can only touch another icon of the same type.
The idea is simple, but it takes a true genius to solve this brainteaser correctly. You'll need a solid memory, a big imagination, and a strong sense of logic. The toughest part is remembering which pieces you've already picked and what the puzzle looks like now that you've placed them. We believe in you, though. With just a little bit of focus, you'll have the right answer in no time.
Did you solve it yet? Don't give up now! If you're having a hard time, you can even print the puzzle out, then draw or (literally) cut and paste the pieces in place so you can keep track of your progress. (Or try this coffee logic puzzle instead.) Once you think you have the answer, take a peek at the solution below.
How long did it take you to figure this out?
If you completed it successfully, great job! We hereby deem you a true puzzle genius. Now try your hand at this brainteaser an MIT professor called the "hardest puzzle ever."


Shin splints get better with rest and do not cause lasting problems.
What Are the Signs & Symptoms of Shin Splints?
People with shin splints have pain along the inner edge of the shinbone. The pain is usually during or right after activity.
Shin splints also can lead to swelling and tenderness of the shinbone.
The pain of shin splints is caused by irritation and swelling of the muscles, tendons, and bones in the lower leg.
Shin splints are an overuse injury. They happen because someone does the same movement over and over again (for example, running). They also can happen if a person makes a sudden change in an exercise routine, such as exercising more often or making the workouts more intense.
Shin splints happen in people who do high-impact activities or ones with frequent stops and starts, such as running, jumping, basketball, football, soccer, and dancing.
Usually no testing is needed to diagnose shin splints.
People with shin splints need to cut down or avoid all activities that cause pain. Walking and non-weight bearing exercises (like swimming or riding a bike) usually do not cause pain and can be continued.
Giving medicine for pain such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, or store brand) or acetaminophen (Tylenol or store brand). Follow the directions that come with the medicine for how much to give and how often to give it.
Exercises to stretch and strengthen the foot/leg muscles and tendons.
Using an elastic wrap or compression stocking to help with pain and swelling.
Can People With Shin Splints Play Sports?
Depending on how severe the symptoms are, it can take up to 4–6 weeks of rest before a child or teen can return to sports.


The Australian state of Tasmania is home to King Island. Known for it's quality food products including cheese, lobsters and beef, it's also home to a restaurant that serves no food. Twelve years ago, artist Caroline Kininmonth restored an 137 year old boathouse into the BYO eatery, and the communal dining room has been a hit ever since.
The Boathouse provides all the cooking supplies and patrons bring their own ingredients and drinks. It's possibly the only waterfront restaurant on the island, and is a popular site for weddings. The space has a lot of raw character. It looks like a mix between an artist's clubhouse and a fishing shack. Keeping with the free and easy vibe, there's no set price, but donations are accepted.
