Our research programme can be divided into two principal areas: basic visual neuroscience and clinical vision research. On this page we have summarized some of the main topics within each of these two strands. In addition, we have also included a brief description of some previous research on colour vision in honeybees. This page in currently under construction.
Colour is a fundamental aspect of our visual experience and enables us to recognize objects fast and reliably.
Traditionally, colour research has focused on colour as an isolated visual feature. However, it is now apparent that chromatic information also facilitates a multitude of other visual tasks and is available in many visual areas in the cortex.
Our aim is to try and understand the functional organization of cortical colour processes and their interactions with other submodalities (e.g. form, depth and motion) and tasks.
The results of our research are directly applicable in robotics e.g. for the development of artificial visual systems, as well as for medical advances in visual prostheses.
We always perceive the colour of a ripe banana as being yellow – in spite of the fact that the spectral distribution of the light reflected from the banana into our eyes changes under different illuminations (compare the two images, one of which has more red illumination).
This phenomenon is called colour constancy. It results from a series of neural processes which comprise all stages of the visual pathways, and even includes cognitive influences. Colour constancy is therefore an important phenomenon which may help to unravel the cortical computations underlying colour perception.
Colour and motion perception are generally believed to be processed independently from one another, and for this reason classical colour research has primarily used static stimuli.
However, in real life many of the objects we see e.g. people, animals and cars also move. The aim of our investigations is to examine how colour and motion interact.
Click on the checkerboard to see how a moving grey square appears to change to a pink colour when the background pattern changes.
The visual properties of objects, and the visual control of a hand grasping them, are processed in separate pathways.
In this project we investigate how colour signals from the perceptual pathway interact with signals from the motor pathway when guiding hand movements. See also Dyslexia.
The relative number of long- (red) and middle- wavelength (green) cones in the retina varies considerably from person to person. We investigate how this influences visual performances such as colour discrimination, colour constancy, and contrast sensitivity.
Vision at low light levels (below 0.01 cd/m2, i.e. moonlight) is mediated by the highly sensitive rod photoreceptors and their subsequent neuronal network. In contrast to the retinal functions of rod vision, little is known about the cortical processes underlying night vision.
CSNB is a relatively frequent form of inherited night blindness. We are interested in the perceptual consequences of this retinal disorder for night and day vision.
As the population in Europe gets older it becomes increasingly important to understand the effects of ageing on vision.
As we age, the optical media in our eyes become less transparent especially for shorter wavelengths ("yellowing"). There is also a considerable loss of photoreceptors and subsequent neurons, which potentially reduces the efficiency and sensitivity of the visual system.
We are interested in how this affects visual perception in the elderly and how the visual system may compensate for age related changes by "hardware" adjustments. Our investigations are primarily concerned with the effect of ageing on contrast sensitivity, colour constancy and transient tritanopia.
Dylsexia is a term used to describe reduced ability in reading and writing, in spite of normal intelligence and sufficient teaching. It is one of the most frequent learning disorders and affects 5-10% of the population. We investigate possible deficits in the visual pathways and particular their interaction with the motor system (sensorimotor integration).
The honeybee (Apis mellifera) has excellent colour vision, ranging from UV through blue to green (but no red!). As in humans, the bee's colour vision is trichromatic and similar phenomena have been described as those observed for human colour vision (simultaneous and successive colour contrast, colour constancy, etc). The bee is, therefore, an excellent animal model for understanding colour vision on an evolutionary basis.

When it comes to pulmonary, or respiratory conditions, no two patients are the same. For instance, those who experience shortness of breath with only mild exercise may not have a medical condition, while others with serious lung diseases may never have trouble breathing.
At Atlantic Respiratory Institute, we can identify if a patient's respiratory symptoms are the result of something as basic as an allergy or as complex as lung cancer. Our program features state-of-the-art treatment and board-certified pulmonologists to help restore breathing capacity and improve quality of life.
In addition, Atlantic Health System has a medical school affiliation with the Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University, so our respiratory patients have access to cutting-edge clinical trials and new treatment and medications.

'Cougar Town': A Season 6 better be in the cards
Apr 10, 2014 | By Zap2It | 0
We were already hoping "Cougar Town" would be renewed for Season 6, but now we absolutely demand it. In the Season 5 finale, during a hair-brained scheme to pretend to be bigwig clients of Andy's, Travis and Laurie hit a rough patch when they realize that they want different things -- Travis wants to be a photographer in New York while Laurie wants to "raise their five kids" in the country. Turns out she's quite prophetic, since Jules finds out that Laurie is pregnant when Jules uses Laurie's urine for her yearly physical (after Ellie slipped Jules some "happy pills" the night before and therefore her urine would be tainted).After Travis and Jules make up, the gang reveals to them that Laurie is pregnant and it is wonderful. Even Tom gets to be there to help celebrate -- and it turns out he's a millionaire, so Andy has found himself a job-saving client.What a beautiful... //blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2014/04/cougar-town-season-5-finale-a-season-6-pregnancy-if-renewal-is-in-the-cards.html

'Projected as villains', SC says never asked Delhi govt to shut schools
Published: Dec 03,202111:42 AM by IANS
The Supreme Court on Friday clarified that it never asked the Delhi government to shut schools, during the hearing of a case regarding severe air pollution in the capital, rather only asked for reasons behind the change in their stand on reopening schools.
Supreme Court of India (File Photo)
A bench headed by Chief Justice N.V. Ramana and comprising Justices D.Y. Chandrachud and Surya Kant said, "Do not know whether it is intentional or not. Some sections in the media tried to project, we are villains... we want closure of schools."
The bench told senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi, representing the Delhi government, that the government told the court that it was closing schools and introducing work from home. "And, see today's newspapers," added the bench.
Singhvi said one newspaper suggested "your lordships wanted to take over the administration". The bench replied that it never used that expression and the matter was not reported correctly.
The Chief Justice told Singhvi, "You've right and freedom to condemn...We can't do that. Where did we say we were interested in taking over administration?"
The bench pointed out at the freedom of press. Singhvi replied that court reporting is different from political reporting and there should be some responsibility.
The Chief Justice replied: "After video hearing, there's no control. Who's reporting what, you don't know..."
On Thursday, the top court told the Delhi government, "You have implemented work from home for adults. So, parents work from home and children have to go to school. What's this?"
The Chief Justice said the Delhi government made several claims that they are willing to even impose lockdown and other measures to curb pollution, but all schools are open and three-year-old and four-year-old children are going to school when the air quality index is so poor.
The top court was hearing a case by a 17-year-old Delhi student Aditya Dubey raising concerns about severe air pollution in Delhi.

Dined out and had Italian for dinner two nights in a row, but they were totally different experiences which highlight the range of options available in town.
On the first night, our large group of 12 chose to dine at Cipriani. This has always been one of my favorite places, and we took the private room so that we wouldn't scare away the other customers... Luckily there weren't many customers in the main dining room anyway.
We brought our own wines and had the equivalent of 7 bottles for the evening, which, when added with the bellinis that some of us were enjoying, amounted to a decent amount of alcohol.
We had a contributor with 2 bottles of Champagne - the Gosset Excellence Brut followed by Krug Grande Cuvee. Despite all the fun we poked at our friend for bringing a "cheapy" Champagne, the Gosset was actually a decent drink. But of course it paled next to the Krug in comparison, with more mature, refined notes in the nose.
Next up was a bottle of Chateau St Jean Fume Blanc (didn't look at the vintage), which was fine as a drinking wine (someone's quiet remark to me).
We then moved onto the 2 bottles of 2001 Kistler Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast that I brought. These were actually drinking very well, although still a bit young and probably need a couple of more years to completely round out the edges. The nose was classic pinot, but none of the farmy, barnyard notes of Burgundy. Sweet, powerful and concentrated, I thought it did very well for Kistler's generic cuvee.
Finally we had the 1997 Joseph Phelps Insignia, from a magnum that I brought. I was a little apprehensive before the wine was poured from the decanter, as this would be my first experience for this vintage of Insignia. I need not have worried. The nose was full of sweet red fruits and powerful, and the wine was full-bodied on the palate. Enough of the tannins had been shed to make the wine rounded and smooth, and I let the wine swirl around my tongue to feel and chew on the tannins. Wonderful stuff. I don't think the wine has reached its peak yet, so I can probably wait a couple more years before pulling the cork on my other bottles.
I always choose the simplest food at Cipriani. Tonight I picked caprese. This is a more delicate version of the classic, as it uses mozzarella balls and cherry tomatoes instead of the usual, large slices of both. Of course, it was delicious and I do prefer it this way.
For the main course, I again ordered the baked taglialini with ham. This is a dish that I always order at Cipriani, because it's so good. Thin strips of ham is sprinkled on top of the pasta along with cheese, and baked in a shallow dish au gratin. Never ceases to satisfy me.
Being the boring person that I am, I picked and recommended the vanilla cream cake for dessert. I did try the chestnut cake, and it was yummy, but the vanilla cream is still my favorite for its lightness.
I left the restaurant very full and pretty inebriated. A very good evening indeed.
A few friends decided to gather at Panevino for a casual meal. I remembered that the roast suckling pig was pretty yummy, and so I was really looking forward to this meal.
I brought a bottle of white and a bottle of red, and I had already opened the 1996 Far Niente Cabernet Sauvignon in the office for it to breathe. I asked the manager if she could help me chill and open the wines, only to be told that the restaurant doesn't allow wine from the outside. I told the manager that I had opened a bottle a few months ago on my last visit, but she insisted that this rule has been in place for a couple of years. At this point I'm pretty upset and it clearly showed on my face.
With limited exceptions (usually reserved for big name, must-go restaurants) I do not patronize restaurants that don't allow BYO. After a few minutes the manager came back and offered to let us consume the Far Niente since it I had already pulled the cork, and she would do so without charging us corkage. Well, it's a nice gesture, but for me the damage has already been done. Panevino would be on the short list of restaurants I would not return to (like Le Tire Buchon) because of its wine policy.
Honestly, the food is decent here. There was nothing to complain about the caprese - the tomato was ripe and the mozzarella soft and creamy. But these come in large sizes and somehow just isn't quite the same as what I had the evening before at Cipriani. The deep fried calamari was not bad, either.
The main course came and I saw a big hunk of suckling pig in front of me. It's pretty darn big, with a trotter attached. I start to chop it up with my knife, and put the first piece in my mouth. Yum! The fragrant and crispy skin - together with a layer of fat that melts in your mouth - nicely balances with what little lean meat there is. As I mentioned last week, it's difficult for me not to like any roast pig... I manage to finish the entire piece of meat, but am too full to take in any dessert. For a second night in a row, I needed an espresso to help with digestion.
BTW the 1996 Far Niente was not bad. Funny thing is that the manager offered to decant the wine, then simply poured the entire bottle (along with all the sediment) into the decanter in about 3 seconds. Why bother decanting if you're not going to leave the sediment in the bottle? Anyway, the wine had shed its tannins so it was smooth on the palate, with a typically Cali cab nose. But somehow it was a slight disappointment as I had expected a lot from this bottle. Maybe it was the sediment, or my foul mood thanks to the manager, or the fact that I had just drunk a fabulous bottle of '97 Cali cab the night before.

Afghanistan: Germans uneasy over mission
By Steve Rosenberg
BBC News, Berlin
Most Germans want their soldiers brought home from Afghanistan
With its military engagement in Afghanistan, the German government is fighting two battles.
One is 5,000km (3,000 miles) away in northern Afghanistan - against Taliban insurgents. The other is much closer to home - the battle for German public opinion.
The Bundeswehr's military mission in Afghanistan is supremely unpopular with the German public. One recent survey indicates more than 70% of Germans want their country's troops to pull out.
Another poll, released on Wednesday, suggests nearly 80% of Germans oppose sending more soldiers to take part in the Nato mission.
Chancellor Angela Merkel knows that. But this week she decided to deploy another 500 troops to northern Afghanistan. An additional 350 soldiers will be placed on standby, to be sent if and when they are needed.
Once the announcement was made, the government public relations machine whirred into action.
The chancellor, the foreign and defence ministers all held televised press conferences, aiming to convince a sceptical public this was the best path to peace.
They reassured Germans the troops' main aim would be to train the Afghan army, not to take on the Taliban.
The government will provide more money, too, to boost reconstruction and development projects, and to entice insurgents to lay down arms and reintegrate into society.
"We need a solution that also implies civil components and development components," Defence Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg told me.
"Of course troops play a significant role in Afghanistan. But we must ask ourselves what they are doing there? I think training must be the main issue."
No deadline
Chancellor Merkel calls this "a new strategy" and "a more defensive approach".
But at a press conference in Berlin on Wednesday, she indicated German troops would still be in the firing line.
"Up until now we have been operating as part of quick reaction forces, which have been based in our camps," the chancellor said.
"Our new strategy is for our soldiers to operate outside the camps, training the Afghan army and working to prevent attacks before they can occur. Without this, we cannot protect the civilian population."
Mr Karzai said Germany's help in Aghanistan made a real difference
Although Germany's foreign minister has said German troops could start to leave Afghanistan in 2011, Chancellor Merkel is refusing to announce any deadline.
"It would be wrong to name a concrete date for the troops to leave," she said, "because we cannot predict what will happen and because we don't want to give an excuse to the Taliban to go quiet and then see them stage a large attack following a withdrawal."
Standing beside Angela Merkel, the Afghan President Hamid Karzai urged the German public to stay the course.
"I thank the German taxpayers for providing valuable assistance for Afghanistan," he said.
"We in Afghanistan see the impact of that help. It is unfortunately not felt as much in Germany or in the UK. But we feel it. The cause for Afghanistan and for a safer world for freedom from extremism and terrorism is very much worth continuing with."
But if the "new strategy" fails to bring peace and the conflict in Afghanistan continues, the public pressure on Chancellor Merkel to cut short Germany's military mission there will grow even more intense.

The Last Crusade
title: The Last Crusade
developer: Patrick Dwyer & Peter S. VanLund
platform: Windows XP
The Last Crusade was a role playing game developed using an Rpg game engine which was intended to allow users the ability to create their own rpg audio games. Here is a small introduction:
"In a time of great despair, King Vaisara called for the finest warriors of the land. He sent them on a dangerous journey. Their mission was to kill the evil King Lasarus. None of those warriors have returned. It is now, in the darkest hour of the Vaisara Kingdom, that King Lasarus must be stopped. King Vaisara has requested that you bring peace back to this kingdom. Your journey will begin in the village of Cascata. Travel through the graveyard and reach Castle Lasarus. There you must kill King Lasarus. The fate of the Vaisara Kingdom is in your hands."
The game consists of three levels (The Village of Cascata, The Graveyard and The Castle). You are a character moving in a world fighting creatures, meeting friends, and getting items such as weapons and armor to increase your attributes.
Though the last crusade itself is a fully functioning and accessible audio game, the rpg engine, though reputedly symplistic to use, was unfortunately not at all accessible to screen readers, and thus far, know other games were developed using it. Sinse however the original rpg game engine did come with source code, Damien sadler of x-site interactive is not only hosting the original last-crusade game, but also intends to try and make the rpg game engine accessible so that people can create their own rpg games in the style of the last crusade.

Cheers to my favorite water, Hawaiian water Waiakea! I am proud to be an ambassador! Health tip and scientific background on the water. Waiākea's water is filtered through thousands of feet of porous Hawaiian volcanic rock infusing it with sodium, calcium, potassium, silica and magnesium. It is also naturally alkaline (around pH 8.8), and has a soft and smooth taste with a hint of sweet taste.
Meanwhile, the charitable component to the business – for every liter of Waiākea sold, the company donates 650 liters of water to those in need in developing countries, through PumpAid – is also a key part of what the brand is about. I am proud to be an athlete and ambassador to such an outstanding company.
You can order through the website Waiakea.com or on amazon. You can even find in some of your local stores!

Traditionally, monolithic concrete forms are made of lumber. After the concrete has been poured, the lumber forms must be stripped from the concrete. The footer and the slab must then be insulated for frost protection. This course details how a frost-protected shallow foundation (FPSF) is constructed and introduces a new, innovative, stay-in-place EPS (expanded polystyrene) footing form that provides insulation and simplifies the installation of frost-protected monolithic concrete slab foundations.
- How to provide maximum frost protection for shallow foundations.
- How to replace traditional foundations with safer, energy efficient process and product.

The newly released iOS 7.1 is identified as build 11D167. As first revealed by AppleInsider last month, the update is said to improve Touch ID fingerprint recognition for iPhone 5s users.
iOS 7.1 also includes a new manual setting for Siri, allowing users to hold the home button on their device to have the system listen, and let go when they are done speaking, as opposed to having Siri automatically detect when a user has finished speaking. The update also allows users to subscribe to iTunes Match directly from their device, allowing for ad-free listening to iTunes Radio.
Owners of the iPhone 4 should also see improved performance with iOS 7.1, while those who buy a compatible vehicle will be able to take advantage of CarPlay. Events can also be displayed in month view, iPhone 5s users can have the camera automatically enable HDR photos, and FaceTime call notifications are now synced across devices through iCloud.
Pre-release versions of iOS 7 have been supplied to developers for testing since last November, making it a particularly lengthy beta period. A mid-March release for iOS 7.1 has been expected for some time.

A: Not sure if this is your problem.  But I was facing a similar issue.  And what ended up happening is I was missing the MimeMultipart.class on my class path in my server code.  Jersey was unable to find the class, and therefore unable to map the server request properly.  Strangest thing was I never saw any kind of error message on the server side indicating a class not found.

A: Assuming you use a bean factory, do something like this to get it from spring:
BeanFactoryLocator beanFactoryLocator = SingletonBeanFactoryLocator.getInstance();
BeanFactoryReference beanFactoryReference = beanFactoryLocator.useBeanFactory("ctx");

testDAOimpl myDao = (testDAOimpl)beanFactoryReference.getFactory().getBean("testDAO");

Q: How to calculate remainder value of a fraction Question:
Four brothers split a sum of money between them. The first brother received 50% of the total, the second received 25% of the total, the third received 20% of the total, and the fourth received the remaining $4. How many dollars did the four brothers split?
What I understand:
15 percent of the value is $4
The total value should be the remaining 85% plus the value of the 15% (4).
Confused about:
How do I calculate this?

A: You made a mistake. $4$ dollars corresponds to $5$ per cent of the total, so the total is $\frac{100}{5}\times 4$ dollars.

Rihanna honored as Barbados becomes a republic, officially removing Queen Elizabeth II as head of state(photos)
Barbados has officially removed Queen Elizabeth II as its head of state and became a republic.
In an overnight ceremony on Monday, November 29, in the capital of Bridgetown, Dame Sandra Mason was sworn in as president in the ceremony coinciding with the country's 55th anniversary of independence.
Singer Rihanna, who is from Barbados attended the event alongside the Prince of Wales, Charles, who represented the Queen.
In a speech, Prince Charles acknowledged the "appalling atrocity of slavery" the Caribbean island suffered while stating it was time for the Island to move ahead as a republic.
Speaking as the guest of honour at the event, Prince Charles reiterated the continuing ties between the two nations despite the constitutional status change.
He described the moment as a new beginning before being awarded the prestigious Order of Freedom of Barbados by the new president.
The Queen sent the country her "warmest good wishes" for "happiness, peace and prosperity in the future" and said the nation holds a "special place" in her heart.
To signify the official change of power, a final salute was made to the British monarchy and the British Royal Standard flag was lowered and replaced.
Dame Sandra Mason, 72, the island's governor-general since 2018, was named as president-elect of the nation following a vote in parliament last month. She now replaces the Queen as the head of state.
"Vessel Republic Barbados has set sail on her maiden voyage. May she weather all storms and land our country and citizens safely on the horizons and shores which are ahead of us," she said after being sworn in.

She later announced that pop star Rihanna would be named a national hero by President Mason. The artist and businesswoman, whose full name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty, was previously named an ambassador by her home country in 2018.
"May you continue to shine like a diamond and bring honour to your nation," Ms Mottley said, in reference to one of Rihanna's songs.
Barbados announced its plan to become a republic last year, but it says it will still remain within the Commonwealth.
Barbados was one of England's first slave colonies. English settlers first occupied the island in 1627 and, under British control, it became a sugar plantation economy using enslaved people brought in from Africa.
Slavery was abolished in Barbados in 1834 and the country became fully independent in 1966.
Before Barbados, which has a population of about 285,000 people, the last nation to remove the Queen as head of state was Mauritius in 1992.

In this episode, I talk about how to master your confidence when building your dream practice.
It's so easy to lose ourselves in this journey called life. Through building a practice, a change in career, or a change in life, we can all feel a shift in how confident we feel. With the ups and downs we learn and grow, but how do we remain confident during this process?
Knowing you are not alone if, and when your confidence shifts can be powerful. I share my own experience when I first started out in today's show.


Texas must fix its school-financing system for its kids to have a fighting chance, a new report says.
The 2019 Texas Legislature must act on behalf of children in the state, or risk that they will fall further behind their peers in the rest of the United States, according to a new report from Austin's Center for Public Policy Priorities. The report also emphasizes the need for an accurate census in 2020 in order to ensure that kids in Texas receive all the help from federal funds to which they are entitled.
Texas families with kids need all the help they can get, according to the report, because 20 percent of the state's 7.4 million children live below the federal poverty line. Black and Hispanic children are three times more likely to fall below the poverty line than white or Asian kids, and nearly 40 percent of all families headed by single mothers live in poverty. Despite gains made since the passage of the Affordable Care Act, more than 670,000 Texas kids still don't have health insurance.
To make sure those kids have a fighting chance to succeed in Texas, the Legislature must act on a number of fronts, according to the report. While it is unlikely that Republicans would be willing to partner with Democrats to expand Medicaid, which could cover a significant portion of the state's uninsured kids, school finance, another area singled out by the report, is an area ripe for compromise.
State Rep. Dennis Bonnen, the presumed new speaker of the Texas House, said at his introductory press conference that his chamber will emphasize fixing Texas' school-financing system in 2019. According to the report, doing so is necessary so that the quality of schools a child attends isn't dependent on the values of surrounding properties.
"Because property wealth — and therefore school funding — varies quite a bit across Texas, the state provides funding to increase equity across districts," the report says. "However, the decline in state investment over the last decade has left local property taxes to cover the majority of public-school costs and increased inequity. This current distribution of education funding leaves students in districts with the lowest property wealth — disproportionately students of color — at a significant disadvantage in resources and outcomes."
It's essential, Democratic state Rep. Diego Bernal said Thursday in a presentation about the CPPP's report, that whatever deal gets struck in Austin does more than just use state money to lessen homeowners' property tax burdens, because it might be hard to get Republicans back to the table.
"[In] the current climate, where people fully understand the nexus between school finance and property taxes, that's a big issue," Bernal said. "My fear right now is that Texas will invest billions of dollars in public ed[ucation] but only for the purpose of lowering property taxes, not for improving education. Once they do that, the pressure's off and everybody walks away."
The report also calls on the state to create Clean Count Committees to ensure that every Texas resident is counted in the 2020 census. For every one percent of the Texas population that isn't counted, the state could potentially lose $291 million in federal funding, according to the CPPP.
"If we don't have everybody counted, we're going to have to pay more to serve the same number of people," CPPP budget analyst Eva DeLuna Castro told the Observer earlier this year. "The formulas [for different federal programs] assume that a certain population size brings you a certain amount of money. ... Texas already has an undercount — we don't know how big it is. To make that even worse, it's just more and more money that we have to come up with here instead of getting federal help to pay for it."
There are more than 400,000 Dallas County residents on Medicaid, including more than 300,000 children. Fifty-one thousand more kids are covered by CHIP. The federal government picks up 58 percent of the cost of insuring Medicaid patients and 93 percent of the cost of insuring children on CHIP, but if fewer people who live in Texas answer their census questionnaires, the state will receive even less of the money than it should.
According to the new Kids Count Data Book from the Annie E. Casey Foundation, 30 percent of Texas kids already live in hard-to-count census tracts. Researchers at CPPP and around the country fear that the Trump administration's attempt to put a question about whether census respondents are U.S. citizens on the questionnaire will swell the ranks of those who aren't counted, because 25 percent of all children in Texas live with at least one non-citizen parent.
Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear a case about the proposed citizenship question in February.


Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) are yet to make any comment on the same.
Former Pakistan batsman Imran Farhat has highly criticized the playing conditions and facilities for the players at the domestic circuit in the ongoing season.
The domestic season of Pakistan has got off to a start as the first round of the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy has already kicked off with many cricketers expressing their discontent with the facilities that are being provided to them.
Even, former Pakistan skipper Misbah-ul-Haq had earlier posted a video on the social media criticizing the playing conditions for the domestic cricket.
On Tuesday (4 September), Farhat, who is currently leading the Habib Bank Limited side in the tournament, went on his official social media handle to express his frustration over the same at the Diamond Club Ground in Islamabad. He also revealed that the players were feeling ill and continuously struggling due to the poor ground conditions.
Meanwhile, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) are yet to make any comment and take any action against the same while many players are already on antibiotics at the moment.

When and Where is RISE 12? What Happened to RISE 11?
We have received a few, consistent questions the last few days, and we hope to clarify the confusion as best we can. Going into last Friday's RISE 10 – INSANITY, we intended to announce our next event, which logically would be RISE 11 and was slated to be our return to the Los Angeles Market. But, as can often be the case in the our world, "Card Subject to Change."
Our next event, RISE 12 – WE DON'T NEED ROADS, was set for South Gate, CA. We had the building secured and key talent committed, but we had a very big factor preventing us from running the date we had set – impossible travel booking situations. When attempted to book travel for key talents, nearly all flights needed were already sold out or were astronomically high priced. Returning to our loyal fans in Los Angeles is a top priority for us, but we have been forced to push the date of RISE 12 and possibly the location. We WILL return to Los Angeles in 2019 at a date yet to be determined.
Now, as for another question…what happened to RISE 11?
We had announced on our Social Media some time ago our next event would be RISE 11 – ONE LOUDER. We had begun a dialogue with representatives of potential special guests who would have been very fitting for an event entitled ONE LOUDER. However, due to current legal situations, on which we will not further comment, we will be skipping over RISE 11 – ONE LOUDER. We will only ever get one "11," and we hope to one day present the event as planned and to do it right.
As a show of solidarity for our potential special guests, we will not be making any reference to or making any profits from RISE 11 – ONE LOUDER unless they are able to be a part.
Now, where and when will RISE 12 – WE DON'T NEED ROADS be? That is to be determined. We are working on a few possibilities for early 2019. We will get the word out as soon as locations and dates are set.
What we DO know, is this: The Fifth Phoenix of RISE "The Latina Sensation" Mercedes Martinez will defend her championship against Kylie Rae!
Los Angeles, we hope to see you soon! And there are a few new towns we might be seeing in the relatively near future as well.
Thank you fans for your patience and understanding!

Mini Transat preview
A record 70 21ft Minis, with skippers from countries as far afield as Australia and Japan, will set off from the Bretagne port of Concarneau today at 1500 (French time) to cross the Atlantic in the Mini Transat race.
The underlying pre-start tension here in Concarneau ressembles that of one of the 1970s OSTARs. The fleet currently moored in the marina in the shadow of the medieval fortified town contains some of the most experimental monohulls on the water and a range of entries from the downright amateur to the most highly professional.
The smart money to win is on Lionel Lemonchois who has done three Mini Transats always finishing in the first ten (8th, 5th and 4th), and who has a brand new Marc Lombard design for the race called Mecenat Chirurgie Cardiaque (featured in Yachting World October). Lemonchois is one of the most experienced boat preparers/crews in France having worked with leading yacht racers such as Isabelle Autissier and Catherine Chabaud. His boat is nothing but immaculate. She was launched and immediately took part in the single-handed Transgascoigne race taking line honours.
Apart from Lemonchois there are roughly nine other boats in the fleet capable of winning. Among them are two Brits.
Peter Heppel, 44 has one of the best prepared boats in the race, a Mini designed by Groupe Finot and built by top Mini builders, Thierry Fagnent's AMCO yard near La Trinite-sur-Mer. Reality was launched prior to the last Mini Transat two years ago and Heppel has been tweaking and learning to get the best from her ever since. Heppel is an engineer by trade and has worked on the hydrodynamics and sail development programmes for numerous America's Cup projects and has applied this knowledge to the underwater appendages and sails for his boat. With Andrew Cape as crew he won the two handed Mini Fastnet race at the beginning of this season.
Andrew Cape, who has joint Australian and English nationality, earned his stripes as a navigator on IOR boats and gained notoriety as navigator on board Chris Dickson's Tokio in the 1993/4 Whitbread Round the World Race. He has since been navigator on the America's Cup yacht One Australia and on Toshiba in the last Whitbread. Capey is also a naval architect and designed his own Mini which was built by Neville Hutton in his home town of Lymington. The boat called Aberdeen Asset Management is narrow compared to some of the Minis, has a canting keel and a single canting rudder which is retractable, allowing the rudder area to be changed in different conditions. It will be interesting to see how both he and fellow Toshiba and One Australia crewman Nick Maloney, sailing Wild Colonial Boy (Ellen MacArthur's Mini from the last race), fare in this rather different and no less demanding form of yacht racing.
In my top three apart from Lemonchois and Heppel would be Sebastien Magnen. Magnen, 35, is also a naval architect (he studied at Southampton University) and won the last Mini Transat in his immaculate Mini Karen Liquid, named in tribute to his girlfried Karen Leibovici who funded much of the construction of the boat and is also one of four women taking part in this race. Magnen is not one of the trim, fit sportsman types of which there are an increasing number in this race. Instead he relies on his raw talent, like leading Figaro sailor Jean le Cam. On the surface Magnen likes to maintain a laid back approach – he was one of the last to register for this race and this week has constantly been giving the scrutineers a hard time with minor infringements of the safety regulations – however beneath this his boat is superb in its development and preparation.
Magnen has been improving the boat ever since the last race – he has increased the size of the daggerboard to work in conjunction with the swing keel and added a centreline water ballast tank in an attempt to improve the boat's upwind performance. Every piece of deck gear which can be replaced

SLA soldier killed in Trinco settlement
[TamilNet, Tuesday, 20 November 2001, 16:57 GMT]
A Sri Lanka Army (SLA) soldier was killed and another was wounded in an ambush by the Liberation Tigers in the Left Bank- 3 (LB-3) Channel area in the Serunuwara division of the Trincomalee district Tuesday morning, security sources said. A four year old Tamil girl was seriously wounded in retaliatory fire by the army. The injured child was immediately taken to Trincomalee hospital from Mutur, medical sources said. LB3 is one of several state sponsored Sinhala land encroachments in the Allai irrigation project in the Mutur region which were legalised and protected by Colombo despite protests by Tamil politicians.
The SLA fired artillery shells towards the jungle near the Left Bank-3 following the attack, residents said.
Sinhalese farmers from the southern parts of the island were encouraged by the state to settle in the catchment areas of the reservoirs and at the head of the water distribution channels of the Allai scheme. Sinhala settlers were hence able to control the supply of water at will to Tamil villages in the region. Armed conflicts frequently erupted between Tamil farmers and Sinhala settlers over the restriction and the blocking of water supply by the latter.
Tamil farmers continue to eke out a living in the LB-3 area and a section of the neighbouring Nilapolai and Kankuveli despite the odds against them.
The legalised encroachments and state sponsored settlements were named in Sinhala as Serunuwara, Neelapola, Ali-Oluwa, Dehiwatte, Serunuwara etc.,
In 1976 a new electorate called Seruvila, was carved out in the Trincomalee district for Sinhalese, comprising the new Sinhala settlements on the recommendation of the Delimitation Commission appointed by the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) which was in power at the time. The SLFP is now led by President Chandrika Kumaratunga and is the main constituent of the People's Alliance regime.


If you have unsecured credit card debt, keeping up with your payments is essential to ensure your credit history remains strong.
Late payments negatively impact your credit rating. They also increase the fees that you owe, contributing to escalating debt.
According to a report by the Federal Reserve Bank, about 12 percent of consumer debt is delinquent at any given time. That equals as much as $1.2 trillion in delinquent debt.
While it might seem that all late payments are equal, the truth is that there are several stages of payment default, and each one has different consequences.
The first stage of payment default occurs when you're payment is over due by 30 days or more. In most cases, the consequences are minimal.
A late credit card bill payment might incur a penalty fee or cause your interest rate to go up. Certain utility bills cannot be past due for more than 30 days or your utilities will be shut off.
In most cases, however, you should be able to deal with the creditor with a simple phone call. It might be possible to work out a payment plan or to request an extension to take care of your bill.
Once you're 60 days late, creditors will take more drastic measures. You might receive stern phone calls and letters letting you know the consequences of defaulting on your payment.
Depending on the company, it might still be possible to work out a payment plan, but you'll have to prove that you're facing financial hardship and you might have to pay an additional penalty fee (or a higher interest rate) on top of your regular payments.
Once debt is 90 days past due, the creditor is likely to report you to the company's internal collections department. This means two things: your current account and line of credit will be shut off, and your debt will be reported to the credit bureaus.
This has an immediate impact on your credit report and can cause your credit rating to fall up to 40 points.
Even if you pay off your unsecured credit card debt completely at a later time, your delinquency will still show up on your report. This can affect your chances of qualifying for a loan and obtaining good interest rates in the future.
Different companies have different time limits when it comes to paying off a debt. In most cases, ignoring a payment for more than 90 to 120 days will put you in permanent payment default.
Your creditor will assume you have no intention of paying what you owe and will turn over debt collections to a third-party agency.At this point, you deal direction with the collections agency.
In this situation, the Better Business Bureau recommends trying to negotiate a settlement, which involves discussing a payment plan that includes forgiveness of interest and late charges and/or a significant discount if you pay the debt in full by a certain date.
Whether your unsecured credit card debt is turned over to a collection agency or not, there's always a chance you'll be sued for the amount you owe.
If that happens, you may be able to buy some time by asking the creditor to validate the debt.
This means they have to show proof that you actually owe them the amount in dispute. While you're waiting for a response, you can decide what to do about the debt. It might still be possible to settle out of court if you can afford to pay.

Q: C++ How to define the value of a variable based on another variable and some arithmetic I am quite new to c++ and programming in general. In my program, I am attempting to calculate the weight of an object on other planets by asking the user for a earth weight and then the planet they want to compare the earth weight with. Using switch(planetnumber), I was hoping that based on the number they picked(1-6) the program would define the variable otherweight based on the case selected.
I ran into a error: "lvalue required as left operand of assignment weight * 0.78 = otherweight;" This did not work the way it was intended, could anyone point me in the right direction?
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    double weight;
    int planetnumber;
    double otherweight;
    std::cout << "Enter weight\n";
    std::cin >> weight;
    std::cout << "Please select your arena\n";
    std::cin >> planetnumber;
    switch (planetnumber)
    {
        case 1:
            weight * 0.78 = otherweight;
            break;
        case 2:
            weight * 0.39 = otherweight;
            break;
        case 3:
            weight * 2.65 == otherweight;
            break;
        case 4:
            weight * 1.17 = otherweight;
            break;
        case 5:
            weight * 1.05 = otherweight;
            break;
        case 6:
            weight * 1.23 = otherweight;
            break;
        default:
            std::cout << "Not a valid input\n";
            break;
    }
    std::cout << "your weight is " << otherweight << std::endl;
}

A: In C / C++ the result goes on the left, the equation goes on the right. You just need to transpose e.g.
otherweight = 0.78 * weight;

A: Expongamos un caso practico para listar los registros de la base de datos asi como generar un total de uno de los campos de tipo TIME mediante PHP.
Supongamos que tenemos en la base de datos una tabla como la siguiente:
SELECT * FROM docs;

| id | user    | tiempo   |
|----|---------|----------|
|  1 |       1 | 10:22:51 |
|  2 |       1 | 05:21:09 |
|  3 |       2 | 01:02:15 |
|  4 |       3 | 23:10:01 |

Podriamos utilizar la función TIME_TO_SEC de MySQL para que nos retorne el tiempo en segundos y así tener un valor acorde con el que poder hacer operaciones en PHP, ejemplo:
SELECT a.id, a.user, TIME_TO_SEC(a.tiempo) tiempo_segundos
FROM `docs` a;

| id | user | tiempo_segundos |
|----|------|-----------------|
|  1 |    1 |           37371 |
|  2 |    1 |           19269 |
|  3 |    2 |            3735 |
|  4 |    3 |           83401 |

Si queremos obrener el tiempo total en segundos podriamo hacer un SUM directamente en Mysql, ejemplo:
SELECT SUM(TIME_TO_SEC(a.tiempo)) total_segundos
FROM `docs` a;

| total_segundos |
|----------------|
|         143776 |

En php si queremos mostrar los registros y sumar a la vez podemos hacer lo siguiente por ejemplo, codigo comentado:

Primero creamos una función para pasar de segundos a días, horas, minutos, segundos y dar formato, luego simplemente vamos sumando los tiempos en segundos para una vez tengamos el total de segundos pasarle el valor a la función.

<?php
// Declarmos una función para formatear de segundos a días, horas, minutos, segundos
function seg_a_dhms($seg) {
    $d = floor($seg / 86400);
    $h = floor(($seg - ($d * 86400)) / 3600);
    $m = floor(($seg - ($d * 86400) - ($h * 3600)) / 60);
    $s = $seg % 60;
    return "$d días, $h horas, $m minutos, $s segundos";
}

// conexión
$conexion =  mysqli_connect("localhost", "user","pass","database");
// query
$query = "SELECT a.id, a.user, TIME_TO_SEC(a.tiempo) tiempo_segundos, a.tiempo
FROM `docs` a;";

// preparar consulta
if ($stmt = $conexion->prepare($query)) {
    // ejecutar consulta
    $stmt->execute();
    //recuperar resultados
    $stmt->store_result();
    // Vincular resultados a variables
    $stmt->bind_result($id, $user, $tiempo_segundos, $tiempo);

    // Declaramos una variable para sumar el tiempo
    $total_tiempo_sec = 0;
    while ($stmt->fetch()) {
        // mostramos lo que necesitemos
        echo 'El registro '.$id.' del usuario '.$user.' tiene un tiempo de '.$tiempo;
        // vamos acumolando la suma de los tiempos en segundos
        $total_tiempo_sec += $tiempo_segundos;
    }

    // una vez que finalice el while solo nos falta dar formato
    // al total de tiempo con la función que declaramos al principio
    echo seg_a_dhms($total_tiempo_sec); // 1 Días, 15 horas, 56 minutos, 16 segundos
}

A: Si he entendido bien lo que quieres, puedes obtener los minutos de diferencia en cada paso en la propia query en mysql, por ejemplo suponiendo que tus campos de salida y llegada son tipo datetime:
$query = "SELECT servicio_No, movil, despacho, salida, llegada_Origen, salida_Origen, llegada_Destino1, salida_Destino1, llegada_Destino2, salida_Destino2, disponible
, TIMESTAMPDIFF(MINUTE, 'salida', 'llegada_Origen') as tiempo1
, TIMESTAMPDIFF(MINUTE, 'salida_Origen', 'llegada_Destino1') as tiempo2
,....
FROM servicio WHERE servicio_No = ?"

Luego sólo tienes que sumar los minutos de los tramos que quieras y convertirlos a horas dividiendo el total de minutos por 60. De este modo tienes el cálculo directamente desde la consulta y lo puedes mostrar en el mismo momento que rellenas los datos. Espero que te sirva.

How active will you be: [size=150]I usually play for about 3-4 Hours a Day. During those hours I achieve many things including helping people out, getting more friends, and Advertising Our Server. After summer when school starts, I sometimes stay after for about 1 or 2 hours. I play basically the same times, 3-4 hours. I can go over if I wanted; it's just that Games aren't my whole life.
I enjoy Playing Tennis, But not Watching it.

After that has been settled, I will handle the situation as If I was a Supreme Court Judge, Not Being on someone's side, going with the right decision. I would tell them that there was no need to fight.
Any questions? Please do ask. xD lol.


Doug and Lisa Zadow have served the Melissa community and its schools for over 30 years. They donated Zadow Park to the City of Melissa, which is used for all Melissa Schools softball and baseball events. Doug initiated the start of the Booster Club's annual golf tournament, raising over $50,000 for students each year. Lisa was the first executive director of the Melissa Education Foundation, and for four years raised funds for teacher and student scholarships and grants.
"It is fitting that Doug and Lisa Zadow be inducted to the Wall of Honor for their countless hours, leadership, and direction to the students of Melissa Schools," wrote their nominee.
Doug and Lisa Zadow were inducted into the Wall of Honor on Sept. 23, 2016.
For anyone who has been a part of Melissa for any amount of time, the Zadow name is a familiar one.
If you have ever been to a youth baseball or softball game in Melissa, you've heard of the Zadows. If your child has ever played on the playground near the middle school, you've heard of the Zadows.
Zadow Park was designed and donated to the City of Melissa by the Zadow family. Each of the sports fields are named after their three daughters: Sydney, Shelby, and Skylar. The family moved to Melissa in 1985 and has proudly served our community and schools ever since.
In addition to what Doug and Lisa have done collectively, each has contributed significantly to the district in their own right.
In 2006, Lisa Zadow became the first Executive Director of the newly formed Melissa Education Foundation. MEF provides scholarships to Melissa's graduating seniors as well as grants to Melissa teachers. It was Lisa's insight and creativity that started the annual MEF Casino Night, which is the biggest fundraiser for the foundation to date.
Lisa ran the foundation for more than four years, collecting sponsorships and donations, planning casino night, and giving out scholarships and grants – all while never expecting anything in return. In doing so, she ensured that all monies would go toward the students and staff of Melissa Schools.
Lisa also served for many years on the McKillop PTO, the Booster Club, and in fact, served as the Booster Club President.
Doug Zadow is currently the President of the 4B Board for the City of Melissa. Doug's position on the 4B Board is instrumental in the development of the City. Doug initiated the conversation between the City and the school district to form a joint partnership in the building of the Melissa Sports Complex.
Doug has also served on the Melissa Booster Club in many capacities. Doug's knowledge and love for golf led him in planning and running the first of many annual Melissa Open Golf Tournaments. While under Doug's guidance, the tournament netted over $50,000 per year for Melissa students. This past year, Doug graciously offered his assistance again and helped make last year's Melissa Open the most successful one since his departure from the Booster Club.
In addition, the Zadows give an annual scholarship through the Melissa Education Foundation for graduating students attending Texas A&M University.
The Zadows have given countless hours, leadership, support, and direction to the students and staff of Melissa Schools for the last 30 years.


December 1st kicks off the Holiday Season in Redondo Beach!

The streets in this cute shopping area are closed just for this event. The shops are all open and it's a great chance to get to know this neighborhood.
There was a Christmas parade featuring local high schools, community groups, and much more! Santa Claus also made an appearance!
The students were so happy to celebrate the holidays in Redondo Beach's Riviera Village! I think we'll go back for brunch in the spring!

Debussy - Syrinx for Solo Trumpet quantity
Regarded as the father of musical impressionism, Claude Debussy entered the Paris Conservatoire at the age of eleven, subsequently winning the Prix de Rome and forging a career as arguably the greatest French composer of the twentieth century. Profoundly influenced by the inventive structure and tonality of Wagner's opera Tristan & Isolde, he developed his own distinctive compositional language, combining influences from both Eastern cultures and antiquity with masterful layering of instrumental colours and textures.
Written in 1913 for the flautist Louis Fleury, Syrinx is a beguiling and sensuous work that became the first major composition for the modern 'Böhm' flute (perfected in 1847), and the most significant addition to the instrument's repertoire for 150 years. Conceived as a movement of incidental music for an unfinished play by Gabriel Mourey (Psyché) and originally known by its initial title, 'Flûte de Pane', the work is often performed out of view of the audience, replicating Debussy's wishes at its première.

BUDAPEST - Hungarian car parts and agricultural machinery firm Mezogep on Friday reported lower net profits for 2002, hit by Q1 losses, a strong forint and less-than-planned orders by certain clients.
Sales of the company, which makes 70 percent of its revenue from car industrial business, increased, and it said that despite a recession in the sector, it expected to be able to further lift its revenues due to contracts it already had obtained.
Mezogep, majority-owned by Canada's Linamar Corp., said it had a net profit of 212.2 million forints ($938,300) in 2002, compared with 368.3 million in 2001.
This translates into a lower earnings per share of 26 forints in 2002 against 46 forints in 2001.
Its sales, meanwhile, increased to 16.47 billion forints from 12.41 billion in 2001.
Mezogep said its operating profit had narrowed to 275.3 million forints in 2002 from 445.1 million, with a 20.6 percent rise in operating costs.
Mezogep said its biggest challenge this year was a production launch to deliver gears to Opel Hungary.
"The buyer ordered significantly less parts than planned originally. Therefore this project has not become profitable yet," Mezogep said, adding that sales from this project exceeded 1.5 billion forints in 2002.
But Mezogep's management was confident over the outlook, despite a recession in car industry.

Today, new care options are making it possible for seniors to be more active and independent than ever before. Because of the rehabilitative and restorative care provided by nursing facilities, nearly 70 percent of seniors who need our care are able to return home.
If inpatient skilled or rehabilitative care is needed, Mass Senior Care can help you identify facilities that meet the care needs of you or a loved one.
There is no substitute for a personal visit! Plan to visit several nursing and rehabilitation facilities and talk with staff, residents, and families before you make a selection. When you tour a facility, ask to see the entire facility, including areas for specialized services such as rehabilitation therapy. Tour the dining and recreational areas, outdoor space, and shower and food preparation areas. Ask to speak with residents and family members about their experiences with the facility.
While reviewing the data, it's important to remember that surveys represent a snapshot taken at one point in time, and that your personal visits and interviews with residents, staff and families provide the most valuable and current information.
Once you have chosen the facility that best meets your needs, it's important to evaluate and understand your payment options.
