Ireland facing an economic hit from No Deal Brexit
A disorderly Brexit will cost the Irish economy 50,000 jobs and lower its GDP by 2.4% across the next ten years, according to a leading think tank survey
Flu takes flight
Sanofi said it has plans to fly in supplies of flu vaccine if other UK transport routes become too disrupted after the UK leaves the EU
Customs checks mean huge lorry tailbacks expected
Kent Police said they are drafting in an extra 140 officers per day to cope with the long queues of lorries expected on the M20. They have an additional £3.4 to spend on preparations for gridlock and delays around the channel ports
NHS is stretched to its limit
An NHS staffing survey showed GPs are under pressure with 1,500 fewer GPs now than in 2015. Staff sickness levels are up sharply with 40% citing stress, the highest number recorded in 5 years. The service has been heavily dependent on EU staff, many of whom have gone back to their home countries. So there are now shortages of staff at all levels of the NHS
Research funding drying up at universities
Universities are now facing a crunch point on scientific and research funding with EU money about to dry up. They are in the dark as to what will replace it. Many are seeing leading research expertise 'walk' to other universities in mainland Europe where these research grants are secured
Theresa May is on the road to nowhere
Today is the day that MPs run the order paper in the House of Commons and they plan to put around '16 Brexit Plans' to MPs for them to vote on
The idea is for a simple preference selecting vote by all MPs. Then the most popular Brexit proposals make it to a more detailed round of discussion and voting next Monday in Parliament
Up to 20 Tory ministers are said to be poised to resign if Theresa May does not allow a free vote on all these indicative proposals.
Theresa May's Meaningful Vote 3 appears to be struggling back to life and may be put before Parliament once again. The Tory eurosceptic hardline ERG have been discussing supporting it, with some opting for 'ideological purity over the Irish backstop position' and others, like Jacob Rees Mogg, recognising there is now a risk of losing Brexit completely if they do not support May
The DUP votes do not seem to be so certain for the Prime Minister. Talk of the need for Westminster to impose Direct Rule in the event of No Brexit has made discussions uncomfortable, but they are also feeling the pull of voting for May's Deal or they may get No Brexit at all, so their position may soften
Talk of Theresa May naming her resignation date in return for ERG/DUP support of her Withdrawal Agreement now seems more pivotal than ever
The Times reported that talk of the Cabinet 'gaming general elections' and having Plans to secure a deal are just not true as there is no Plan B, only Theresa's plan A for third time
Tories are said to be 'fighting like rats in a sack' on their private WhatsApp group. Many are extremely bitter at the 70 or so Brexit hardliners who blocked May's deal. The unhappiness reflects the fear of some that a hard Brexit was in their grasp and it has now escaped, and Brexit itself could be in jeopardy
The government has rejected the petition to Revoke and Remain in the EU, currently signed by more than 5.8m people. A debate on this petition is scheduled for next Monday - April Fools Day
Although a General Election is for some a likely wayout of the impasse, other wiser heads are pointing out that if Parliament backs an indicative vote proposal the government will be compelled to act as its representative in discussions with Brussels, which is unlikely to be acceptable to Theresa May. Equally, she has committed to not leading the Conservatives into the next General Election. At this point she would have run out of all roads to take except a second referendum - which she clearly loathes and would not seek to take either
Brexit turmoil hits UK firms' hiring plans - REC
British companies have scaled back sharply their hiring and investment plans amid the growing turmoil around Britain's exit from the European Union, a survey showed on Wednesday. More firms were downbeat about the outlook for jobs and investment than were optimistic for the first time since the Recruitment and Employment Confederation began its surveys in June 2016, the month of the Brexit referendum. Nearly three years on, it remains unclear how, when or even if Brexit will happen.

Brexit to hit Ireland's economic growth, according to report
ESRI report said: "The persistent uncertainties with respect to the form of the UK's withdrawal from the EU, "Under the most severe scenario of a disorderly no-deal, domestic real GDP is estimated to rise by just 1.2% in 2019 and 2.4% in 2020."

No-deal Brexit will cost 50,000 jobs, say officials
A disorderly Brexit would derail the Irish government's efforts to post a budget surplus for the first time since the financial crash a decade ago and shave 50,000 jobs off employment growth over five years, a report suggests.The study, carried out by the Department of Finance and the Economic and Social Research Institute, the country's main think tank, found that if Britain crashed out of the EU Irish GDP growth would be 2.4 per cent lower by the end of 2020. The economy would still grow, but at a much slower pace. Ireland is also projected to post a budget surplus this year for the first time since the economy collapsed in 2008. A disorderly Brexit would lead to a 0.3 per cent deterioration in the finances of the exchequer over the short term and push the budget balance back into the red, the study said.

How has Brexit vote affected the UK economy? March verdict
Brexiters might argue the bad news from the European economy is reason enough for Britain to distance itself from the EU as much as possible. Eurozone GDP is on course to expand by just 0.2% for the first quarter, marginally weaker than the UK. Italy is suffering from its fifth recession in two decades, while Germany only just avoided recession at the end of last year, with growth close to zero. However, the EU accounts for almost half of UK exports, while there has been little adjustment to non-EU trade since the Brexit vote. Bad news for the EU is still bad news for Britain.

Brexit puzzle forces companies to gamble on pound exposure
Given that spread of possibilities, some companies are leaving their exposures unhedged, to the greatest extent possible, hoping that the way in which sterling eventually moves will be to their benefit. "Some companies continue to believe that it will all be fine. But . . . going into Brexit naked is very dangerous," says Jonathan Pryor, head of FX sales at Investec.

UK economy remains afloat despite the Brexit shenanigans
Watching Brexit developments from 3,000 miles away in the US has been surreal. Fareed Zakaria, the host of a CNN show, recently wrote in the Washington Post that Britain – "famous for its prudence, propriety and punctuality – is suddenly looking like a banana republic". I never thought I would read anything like this about the country of my birth. Britain's international reputation has been trashed.

Pound sterling rises after Jacob Rees-Mogg makes this Brexit claim
The pound rebounded on Tuesday, supported by comments from Jacob Rees-Mogg indicating that a no-deal Brexit is off the table. In an interview, the chairman of the European Research Group (ERG) said it was difficult to see the UK leaving the EU without a deal, leaving two choices: the Prime Minister's deal or no Brexit. The pound rose following his comments, before pulling back slightly.

Pound regains ground after MPs to vote on alternatives to Brexit
Sterling remains in thrall to the twists and turns of Westminster's Brexit politics. As the odds on an orderly departure from the EU improve, the pound is rising, as are UK stocks earning revenue at home. The pound turned higher on Tuesday as investors measured the implications of a move by MPs to seize control of the Brexit process, with signals from influential Eurosceptics that they could support Theresa May's Brexit deal.

Brexit: Flu vaccine 'could be airlifted into UK'
Drugs company Sanofi has plans to fly supplies of flu vaccine into the UK if other transport routes are disrupted after the country leaves the EU. Hugo Fry, the managing director of its UK arm, told BBC Radio 5 live's Wake Up To Money that the flu vaccine was one it was not possible to stockpile. "We prepare in different ways and have prepared many different routes into the UK," he said. "If we have to in the end, we will airlift it in." He added: "We are eating the cost of that but patients and citizens are our primary concern, so we're quite happy to take that cost and make that planning."
Brexit: No-deal EU exit could see 140 extra officers sent to Kent
Up to 140 police officers a day could be drafted into Kent to deal with the impacts of a no-deal Brexit. Police are preparing for gridlock on the roads if anticipated delays at the Port of Dover and Folkestone create long queues of lorries on the M20. Officers are also ready to tackle any protests or disorder that occur, Kent Police Assistant Chief Constable Peter Ayling said. The Home Office has so far given the force £4.3m to pay for preparations. Additional officers could be "mobilised" from other forces in the UK, according to Mr Ayling, a member of emergency planning group the Kent Resilience Forum.

GP practices are struggling – and Brexit will only make things worse
Staff sickness and uncertainty caused by Brexit have worsened NHS staffing shortages. A recent NHS staff survey showed that just under 40% are unwell with stress, the highest that we have seen in five years. And with health and social care relying heavily on staff from the EU, Brexit has the potential to compound our existing recruitment and retention problems. According to a report last week, the shortfall in GPs in England will almost triple from 2,500 to 7,000 by 2023-24. There are already 1,300 fewer family doctors than in 2015.

The myth of British good-humour and resilience was born during World War II and is about to die a Brexit death
A 1942 report into the UK says "The average European, he writes in an accompanying note, has a "rough and ready perception of the Englishman" who is – among other things – "inclined to lecture other people for not doing things as Englishmen would do them, although quite ignorant of the reasons why others act differently from us". Europeans also perceive a country that cannot be depended on "because we won't say what we really want or what we are going to do".

What a no deal Brexit would mean for British fashion
Last year the British fashion industry contributed some £32 billion to the British economy. What's more, at last count, it employed some 890,000 people. The last thing that we – that I – want to see, is our industry retract due to Brexit. Rather, we want to see British fashion continue to provide opportunity and engagement, to inspire young people to be creatives and entrepreneurs and for British Fashion to be continued to be recognised as global leaders in creativity, innovation and business.

Brexit in turmoil as MPs plan to take control of process for a second day
British lawmakers are preparing to take control of the House of Commons agenda for two days in an unprecedented move that will test support for alternatives to Prime Minister Theresa May's deadlocked Brexit plan. A landmark vote placed Wednesday's parliamentary timetable in the hands of lawmakers, after May's repeated failure to pass her deal raised the chances of Britain crashing out of the EU in chaos. MPs now plan to add a second day of debate on Monday. A motion published by the Labour MP Hilary Benn, one of the MPs leading the charge to seize control of the Brexit process, disclosed that lawmakers will vote simultaneously on a menu of options on Wednesday evening local time. These so-called indicative votes will reveal which of the various alternatives command the most support.

Dave Penman, the general secretary of the FDA, said public sector employees in the province could not be expected to make increasingly political decisions with major security and economic implications if the UK crashed out of Europe.

The UK government has lost control of Parliament's agenda for the first time in over 100 years. What comes next?
There were audible gasps in the UK Parliament on Monday night as lawmakers voted to seize control of the Brexit process from embattled Prime Minister Theresa May -- the first time in over a century that MPs have taken over the parliamentary timetable from the government. It was a pivotal moment in what has already been a rollercoaster few weeks in the Brexit process, dealing what could well be the final blow to May's premiership and paving the way for a Brexit lawmakers can at last agree on.

No EU joy as UK parliament gears up for Brexit votes
EU governments know well enough by now that Wednesday's votes may not end up providing a clear picture of Brexit. Even if they did, European Commission chief Jean-Claude Juncker will point out that the EU's only "interlocutor" – or opposite number – remains Her Majesty's government, led by Theresa May, and not UK MPs. Would she be willing to shuttle as a go-between on behalf of Parliament, which has chosen to ignore her negotiated Brexit deal? Not likely.

DUP deal killer blow to Theresa May's plan as they refuse to back her 'toxic' Brexit deal
As a number of Brexiteers are indicating they could cave and back the deal to avoid no Brexit, the DUP are holding firm.

The Brexit delusion of taking back control
From Beijing, where I now am, the UK looks small. It also looks as if it has fallen into the hands of lunatics engaged in an astonishing act of national self-harm. But this, Brexiters will say, is an illusion. The UK is going to "take back control". The slogan was brilliant. But it was the biggest delusion of all. Control is different from sovereignty. As I argued during the referendum campaign, the UK was already sovereign: it could, if it wished, vote to leave the EU.

The Guardian view on Brexit's revolution: eating its own
For many Brexiters, the European Union was not an institutional arrangement that eased trade, immigration and political disputes; it was nothing short of a conspiracy to sap money from the United Kingdom to Brussels, construct an EU army, or help spread Islam across the continent. This thinking underlies the political project to leave the EU. As they are not grounded in truth, these narratives have produced Brexit's lengthy saga of political ineptitude.

Warning of legal limbo for 3m EU citizens living in UK after Brexit
EU citizens living in the UK would be stripped of their freedom of movement, housing and social security rights by Home Office legislation introduced to regulate immigration following Brexit, a parliamentary report has warned. Despite repeated government reassurances that their privileges will be protected, a study by the joint committee on human rights (JCHR) concludes that more than 3 million Europeans living in Britain would be left in legal "limbo". The cross-party committee, whose members are drawn from the Commons and the Lords, argues that EU citizens' rights should be protected by primary legislation rather than reliant on statutory instruments approved by ministers at a later date.

Government rejects petition to 'cancel Brexit' signed by 5.8 million people
The British government has rejected a petition calling for Brexit to be stopped, which gathered more than 5.8 million signatures. The petition is due to be debated by MPs on 1 April, after breaking the 100,000 threshold for consideration and becoming the best-supported proposal in the history of the House of Commons and government's e-petitions website. Rejecting the oft-repeated claim that EU withdrawal is the "will of the people", it calls for the revocation of the Article 50 letter informing the European Council of the UK's intention to leave.

Olly Robbins was right about one thing at least; it's either May's deal or a lengthy extension
For many Brexiteers, Olly Robbins, Theresa May's chief Brexit negotiator, is something of a hate figure. But whatever the rights and wrongs of his Withdrawal Agreement, his analysis of the way events would pan out, as articulated in a Brussels hotel bar, is proving pretty much spot on. When it came down to it, he was overheard saying some months ago, the choice would be between Mrs May's deal and a lengthy extension. Everything else would fall by the wayside. The second of these options is where we now seem to be heading.

The Government is in crisis, but what makes Parliament think it can do any better?
It is hard to think of a more humiliating moment for a sitting Prime Minister than what happened in Parliament yesterday. MPs from across the House, including ministers, voted to take matters out of her Government's hands into their own – "taking control" as they put it – because they do not trust Theresa May to get a grip and find a workable response to Brexit.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2019/03/26/government-crisis-makes-parliament-think-can-do-better/
Why a general election is both necessary and impossible
Here is the nightmare for Theresa May. If, as seems highly likely, MPs instruct the prime minister to negotiate a Brexit or no-Brexit outcome that conflicts with government policy, she and her ministers would be degraded into ciphers and puppets of MPs. There are two big reasons why it cannot happen. First is that the two main parties are irredeemably split over Brexit. Labour and the Tory Party would find it impossible to craft a manifesto with a policy on leaving or not-leaving the EU for which all their respective MPs could campaign. So an election could not end the torture for the UK and EU of the uncertainty about our Brexit or no-Brexit future. Second, I have not found a single Tory MP who think it would be a good idea for Theresa May to lead her party into another election, such is the degree to which they have lost confidence in her (and she of course has pledged not to do that).

Q: Persisting Spark Dataframe I am new to the Spark world. How we can persist a Dataframe so that we can use it across the components.
I have a Kafka stream from which, I am producing the Dataframe through the Rdd.Tried RegisterAsTempTable ,but the table is not accessible in another program.
I want to access this Dataframe in another class through sqlContext and use the query result for further calculations.

A: DataFrames can also be saved as persistent tables into Hive metastore using the saveAsTable command. Notice existing Hive deployment is not necessary to use this feature. Spark will create a default local Hive metastore (using Derby) for you. Unlike the createOrReplaceTempView command, saveAsTable will materialize the contents of the DataFrame and create a pointer to the data in the Hive metastore.
Persistent tables will still exist even after your Spark program has restarted, as long as you maintain your connection to the same metastore. A DataFrame for a persistent table can be created by calling the table method on a SparkSession with the name of the table.
By default saveAsTable will create a "managed table", meaning that the location of the data will be controlled by the metastore. Managed tables will also have their data deleted automatically when a table is dropped.

A: You can save the contents of a DataFrame as a Parquet file and read the same in another program. you can register as Temp table in next program.Spark SQL provides support for both reading and writing Parquet files that automatically preserves the schema of the original data.
//First Program
dataframe.write.format("parquet").save("/tmp/xyz-dir/card.parquet")
//where /tmp/xyz-dir/ is a HDFS directory

//Second Program
val parquetRead = sqlContext.read.format("parquet").load("/tmp/xyz-dir/card.parquet")

//Parquet files can also be registered as tables and then used in SQL statements.
parquetRead.registerTempTable("parquettemptable")
val cust= sqlContext.sql("SELECT name FROM parquettemptable")

//After use of parquet file, delete the same in the second program
val fs = org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.get(new java.net.URI("hdfs://hostname:8030"), sc.hadoopConfiguration)
fs.delete(new org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path("/tmp/xyz-dir"),true) // isRecusrive= true

Q: List view throws an error before stream has finished retrieving data I've been learning Flutter and following an online tutorial regarding Provider package, at present I'm working with StreamProvider.
I have a service which connects to Firestore and returns all documents within a collection ('reports'), these documents are then mapped to my report object.
Service:
class FirestoreService {
Firestore _db = Firestore.instance;
var random = Random();

Stream<List<Report>> getReports() {
return _db.collection('reports')
      .orderBy('timeStamp', descending: true)
      .snapshots()
      .map((snapshot) => snapshot.documents
      .map((document) => Report.fromJson(document.data))
      .toList());
}

Report class:
class Report {
final int temp;
final String wax;
final String line;
final String timeStamp;

Report({this.line,this.temp,this.timeStamp,this.wax});

Report.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> parsedJson)
 : temp = parsedJson['temp'],
   wax = parsedJson['wax'],
   line = parsedJson['line'],
   timeStamp = parsedJson['timeStamp'];

}

Within main.dart I have used MultiProvider and added my StreamProvider.
main.dart:
void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {

final FirestoreService _db = FirestoreService();

return MultiProvider(
  providers: [
    ChangeNotifierProvider(create: (BuildContext context) => SettingsProvider()),
    StreamProvider(create: (BuildContext context) => _db.getReports(),)
  ],
  child: MaterialApp(
    title: 'Wax App',
    theme: ThemeData(
        primarySwatch: Colors.deepPurple,
        accentColor: Colors.deepOrangeAccent),
    home: Home(),
  ),
 );
}}

Now this is the issue, within home.dart I retrieve the report data and build a list view, however the list view is called before the getReports method has finished and occasionally throws an error when referencing the var reports
home.dart:
class Home extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
var reports = Provider.of<List<Report>>(context);
FirestoreService _db = FirestoreService();

return Scaffold(
  appBar: AppBar(
    title: Text('Wax App'),
    centerTitle: true,
    actions: <Widget>[
      IconButton(
          icon: Icon(Icons.settings),
          onPressed: () {
            Navigator.of(context)
                .push(MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => Settings()));
          })
    ],
  ),
  body: ListView.builder(
      itemCount: reports.length,
      itemBuilder: (context, index) {
        Report report = reports[index];
        return ListTile(
            leading: Text(report.temp.toString()),
            title: Text(report.wax),
            subtitle: Text(report.line),
            trailing: Text(formatDate(DateTime.parse(report.timeStamp), [h, ':', mm, ' ', am])));
      }
      ) ,
      floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
        child: Icon(Icons.add),
        onPressed: () {
          _db.addReport();
        },
      ),
);
}}

For example one error in particular is thrown on this line:
itemCount: reports.length

reports being null at this point, so my question is how can I prevent the list view being built before the getReports methods has finished? what's the best way to handle such task?
Thanks

A: Try this:
class Home extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    var reports = Provider.of<List<Report>>(context);
    FirestoreService _db = FirestoreService();

    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text('Wax App'),
        centerTitle: true,
        actions: <Widget>[
          IconButton(
              icon: Icon(Icons.settings),
              onPressed: () {
                Navigator.of(context)
                    .push(MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => Settings()));
              })
        ],
      ),
      body: reports!=null ? (reports.length > 0 ? ListView.builder(
          itemCount: reports.length,
          itemBuilder: (context, index) {
            Report report = reports[index];
            return ListTile(
                leading: Text(report.temp.toString()),
                title: Text(report.wax),
                subtitle: Text(report.line),
                trailing: Text(formatDate(DateTime.parse(report.timeStamp), [h, ':', mm, ' ', am])));
          }
      ): Center(child: Text("We have received no data")))   : Center(child: Text("We are fetching data.Please wait...")),
      floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
        child: Icon(Icons.add),
        onPressed: () {
          _db.addReport();
        },
      ),
    );

Close-up of Europa's Surface
Terrain on Europa under Changing Lighting Conditions
These images obtained by the Solid State Imaging (CCD) system aboard NASA's Galileo spacecraft show the same region of Europa under different lighting conditions. The upper image was obtained on June 28, 1996 during Galileo's first orbit around Jupiter under "high-sun" conditions -- the equivalent of taking a picture from a high altitude at noon (with the sun directly overhead). Note that albedo (light/dark) features are emphasized. Compare this to the lower image containing a higher-resolution inset. This (inset) image was taken on Nov. 6th, 1996 during the spacecraft's third orbit under "low-sun" illumination -- the equivalent of taking a picture from a high altitude at sunrise or sunset. Note that in this image the albedo features are not readily apparent. Instead, the topography of the terrain is emphasized. Planetary geologists use information from images acquired under a variety of lighting conditions to identify different types of structures and interpret how they formed. Note that the bright linear features in the upper image are seen to be ridges in the lower image. The circular feature on the right side of both images, Cilix, is approximately 15 miles (25 kilometers) across.
The area seen in the upper image is 187 miles (312 kilometers) by 342 miles (570 kilometers) across; the area covered by the inset is 22 miles (36 kilometers) by 190 mile (315 kilometerss) across. Both of these images are centered near 2 South latitude, 185 West longitude. North is to the top of the frames.

Q: Direct mouse events from my window to other windows Very similar question here, but seems to be unanswered.
I have have implemented a shadowed window using two windows, one parent window which has the shadow but the main native window is the child window. The only problem is that my parent window is much bigger than the child window, and is using transparency to do a shadow. This makes my window handle mouse events even when I click in the shadow region.

What I want is to make my window lose focus whenever I click in the shadow (parent) region, similar to just clicking on another window that is not part of my application. I also want direct control of the location of this click through region, in the case of the shadow size changing.
How can I achieve this?
Thank you in advance.

A: In the parent window, handle the WM_MOUSEACTIVATE message and return MA_NOACTIVATE to prevent a click on the parent window from activating it.
You'll also have to handle the message in the child window, and this time return MA_ACTIVATE.

It's hard enough for an adult to find out they have cancer. When a child receives a cancer diagnosis, it can be especially confusing and scary. That's when City of Hope's Child Life team steps in, to provide information and support during hospitalization and outpatient treatment for infants, children, teens and their families.
Child Life specialists help normalize the environment for pediatric cancer patients while they are hospitalized by engaging them in bedside activities like reading, karaoke, game-playing — whatever a patient enjoys. "If a patient likes to paint, we will spend time painting with them," Namm said.
A popular coping tool is the Beads of Courage program, which encourages kids to document their cancer journeys by putting together strands of glass beads, each one representing an event. "Treatments, surgeries, CT scans — you'll see these long strands of beads that show their story," Namm said.
For every pediatric cancer patient who comes to City of Hope, a Child Life specialist completes an assessment of the patient and their family's needs, assessing their coping skills and "how I can help them, especially when they're in-patient." The specialist finds ways to help them cope better with their hospitalization and treatment, including finding things to do "that are fun." "I find out what they like to do, and encourage them to be advocates for themselves," Namm said, pointing out that many pediatric oncology patients receive bone-marrow transplants, requiring weeks-long hospital stays. Birthdays, graduations and other milestones are often celebrated in the hospital.
Each specialist sees around five to six patients a day, depending on what each patient is going through. Some of that time may involve prepping siblings to see their brother or sister if they are in the intensive-care unit, "which can be pretty scary." If a child is at the end-of-life stage, the specialist will likely spend the entire day with them and their family.
For pediatric patients with terminal diagnoses, Child Life experts spend time making "legacy" craft items with them for their families (with the family's OK), including special pillows, picture frames, wreaths, cards and other ways to collect memories.
"Families are very, very appreciative" of these items, Namm said.
While about 70% of the children Child Life specialists see are patients, another 30% or so are the children (or even grandchildren) of patients. An adult cancer patient with a child ages 4 to 17 can request support from a Child Life expert to help their child understand what the parent is going through, and to provide parental support as well.
"What do these kids know about what is happening? We explain what they are going to see," Namm said.
It's a challenging job, but one that all three specialists say they find extremely rewarding.
"I always keep in mind that I can't control the illness, but what I can control is while they're walking the path of their cancer journey, I can try to normalize things. I can provide some joy and laughter. Basically just help them cope," Namm said.


If you own a business and you have employees then you have to make sure that you protect yourself, as well as them in the event of an accident. If an employee is hurt on the job, no matter the industry, there is a good chance that he or she will be eligible for workers compensation. That is why having workers comp insurance is so important.
In the dental field, as with any other line of work, if an employee is injured on the job it can have a damaging effect on your business. Selecting the right dentists workers compensation plan will ensure that your employees will have access to the quality of medical care and benefits they might end up needing to use. If you don't have the right insurance plan in place it could end up hurting you.
These benefits make it possible for you to have better insurance premiums and even more importantly a safe work environment that is protected by a quality insurance plan for both you and your employees.

Singer Chris Connor Is Not A Legend
But her 1957 set of Gershwin songs is great.
Classic jazz vocalists are unusually stratified. On the one hand, there are iconic legends so famous they only need one name to evoke not just a performer but also a mythos: Billie, Sarah, Ella. And then, on the other hand, there are a whole slew of others who are virtually unknown to a mainstream audience. Frank Sinatra is a culture hero; Anita O'Day and Jeri Southern are just old pop stars, gone and largely forgotten.
Chris Connor is another of the non-icons. Her mainstream cultural profile is somewhere to the south of June Christy's—which is saying something. Her reputation among jazz fans remains high, though, and if you want to see why, a great place to start is Chris Connor Sings the George Gershwin Almanac of Song. Originally released in 1957 the two-disc set features mostly small group arrangements by Ralph Sharon, with a few bonus tracks thrown in on the CD version.
With more than 30 songs, Connor shows her talents on a wide range of material. "A Foggy Day," for example, is slow and sparse; the first minute or so is nothing but piano filigree and Connor's voice drawing out phrases to her own rhythm. She pulls out the end of each line with subdued vibrato, so that when she sings "I was a stranger in the city/out of tune were the people I knew," she really does sound disconnected and wandering, adrift on her own ennui. The happy section of the song kicks in with the rhythm section, but it never reaches triumphant glee (as in Sinatra's version). Instead, Connor's joy is quieter. When she sings, "suddenly, I saw you right there," it's not exactly sudden—more a lingering memory of suddenness, so that the song's slow pace becomes not confused meandering, but an excuse to dwell on love.
The up tempo numbers are great too. On "Fascinating Rhythm" she dices and splices her phrasing. Drawing out the first syllable of "Fasssc–inating rhythm, you've got me on the go," then clipping it off when she repeats it, swaying the line so hard it virtually lurches. She keeps that up throughout the song, lengthening a word here or there between clipped staccato flurries that turn the lyrics into tongue twisters. After such dizzying virtuosity, the instrumental bridge is laughably superfluous; the band runs dutifully through the melody, as if they're afraid that Connor's pyrotechnics may have made you forget what the standard version is supposed to sound like. On "They Can't Take That Away From Me," Connor's phrasing is more subtly, but even more firmly, rhythmic. The pause in "the way your smile—just beams" turns a fairly banal line into a little poem on the art of swing.
The set also features two very different versions of perhaps Gershwin's greatest tune, "Summertime." The first is part of a medley, and seems to nod to Sarah Vaughn's languidly dazzling 1949 performance. Connor, like most humans, can't match Sassy's range and vocal firepower, or her gospel-tinged longing. But the lower-watt performance, including an almost clunky shuffling backing, has its own pleasures, tapping into the song's resignation. When Connor leaves a space before the last word in "One of these mornings you're going to rise up singing," it comes across as a kind of sad irony or doubt. On the other hand, the jaunty bonus track version isn't so much a lullaby as a dance. This time, on the line, "One of these mornings you're going to rise up singing," she throws in a pause after "One," a nonsensical choice which treats the words simply as sound, so singing becomes not lost hope but simply singing.
There are lots of high points: Connor was born to channel the world-weary vulnerability of "But Not For Me," for example, while "Liza" is one of the few tracks where the instrumental soloists (Joe Newman on trumpet and Ralph Sharon on piano especially) turn in performances comparable in interest to the vocals. Certainly, listening to this set, it's not especially clear why Connor should be less well known than Ella Fitzgerald. At least many of Connor's albums remain in print; after the Gershwin set, I'd recommend her 1956 self-titled debut for Atlantic.

2018 Genesis G90
#2 out of 9 in 2018 Luxury Large Cars
$47,428 - $51,194 AVG PRICE PAID
2018 Genesis G90 Interior Review
Interior: 9.0
The 2018 Genesis G90's luxury-grade cabin and excellent fit and finish make it worthy of competition with pricier rivals. High-end materials include standard Nappa leather and genuine wood trim, but there are a few plastic surfaces. The seats are supportive on long jaunts, and there's plenty of space in the front and back. Nearly every feature the G90 offers comes standard, but there are a few add-ons available. There G90 doesn't have as much trunk space as some of its rivals, but it should be sufficient for most errands.
"The leather upholstery is soft and supple, and all the surfaces that are wrapped in it are tight and wrinkle-free. The switchgear lacks a little heft but achieves the right look." -- Edmunds
"If the G90 has a calling card, it's inside, where the interior is full of both quality materials and features. I was able to find some hard plastic trim on the transmission tunnel, but I had to look for it – the rest of the touch points are leather or other soft material. And those are fantastic, some of the best I've experienced." -- Cars.com (2017)
"Whether you're judging by the materials used, how they're assembled, or just how it all looks, the Genesis G90 interior is masterfully luxurious." -- Kelley Blue Book (2017)
Whether your journeys are long or short, the G90's seats are comfortable and supportive. Most luxury large cars offer ample seating space, and the five-seat G90 is no exception. The rear seats have so much room that you can sit three across without complaints.
All Genesis G90 models come with Nappa leather upholstery, heated front and rear seats, power-adjustable front seats with memory settings (22-way for the driver), and a heated and power-adjustable steering wheel. The higher 5.0 Ultimate trim adds ventilated rear seats and power-adjustable rear seats with memory. Unlike the Mercedes-Benz CLS and Lincoln Continental, the G90 does not offer massaging seats.
There are two complete sets of LATCH child-seat connectors in the G90's outboard second-row seats and a tether-only connection in the middle seat. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has not rated the 2018 G90's LATCH system. The 2017 G90's LATCH connectors were deemed mostly easy to use, aside from lower anchors that are buried too deep in the seats.
"The front seats have good stretch-out room, and even with a raised center console, the G90 doesn't feel claustrophobic. The rear seats have generous amounts of leg- and headroom, and the fold-up center armrest/control center makes it possible for three adults to sit abreast in relative comfort." -- Edmunds
"The four outboard seats are heated and ventilated (the latter only in the V-8) as well as eminently comfortable and supportive, particularly the 22-way-adjustable driver's throne." -- Car and Driver (2017)
In my own car, I'm pampered with a fine leather-covered, 22-way power adjustable driver seat with heating and cooling functions. Lucky rear seat passengers get over a yard of legroom. However, the lack of massage seat functions, and the small sunroof with a (gasp!) manually operated shade tarnish the shine on this cabin." -- CNET (2017)
Standard features include a 17-speaker Lexicon surround-sound system, navigation, tri-zone automatic climate control, a sunroof, wireless device charging, and a full-color head-up display. Models with the 5.0 Ultimate designation feature a rear-seat DVD entertainment system with two 10.3-inch screens.
There is an insane amount of standard safety tech, including a driver alertness monitor, adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, automatic braking, pedestrian detection, blind spot monitoring with rear cross traffic alert, lane keep assist, a 360-degree camera with front and rear parking sensors, and automatic high beams.
The G90 stands out among luxury large cars for offering so many standard features. Infotainment and navigation functions rely on a 12.3-inch touch screen and a few console-mounted buttons. Overall, the system is easy to use, with quick responses and straightforward menus. The G90 does not feature Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which are increasingly popular must-haves for new-car shoppers. However, playing your music shouldn't be a problem with the G90's Bluetooth, auxiliary jack, and front- and rear-seat USB ports.
See 2018 Genesis G90 specs »
"The decorative metal grilles are a nice touch to the 17-speaker premium audio system, which produces exquisitely rich sound. The navigation system breaks no new ground but is easy to use and search out points of interest using the power of Google." -- Edmunds
There is some bad news though: There is no Android Auto or Apple CarPlay and Genesis said that there are no plans to add it in the future. But to be honest, in this application, I didn't really miss them. The Genesis system makes up for their absence with features like the ability to send directions from your phone to the car. The screen and controls are responsive to inputs and I was able to find the appropriate menus easily." -- Cars.com (2017)
"The list of standard conveniences goes on and on: carbon-dioxide sensor that directs fresh air into the cabin if C02 builds to a level that could reduce alertness, wireless cell-phone charging in the center console, a heated steering wheel, power rear-seat sunshades, and ... well, if you can name it, the Genesis G90 probably has it. Standard." -- Automobile Magazine (2017)
The Genesis G90 gives you 15.7 cubic feet of trunk space, which is a bit low for the class. Some class rivals, like the Audi A7 and Tesla Model S, offer much larger cargo holds. Still, the G90's trunk has a wide, low opening that makes loading easy. The rear seats don't collapse, but that's typical for the class, and there is a pass-through for long objects.
At 15.7 cubic feet, the trunk is slightly smaller than those of rivals. But it is wide at the entry and preserves most of its width toward the rear seats. There's a fairly low liftover and a ski pass-through, too. Few, if any, cars in the segment have folding rear seats, and the G90 is no exception." -- Edmunds

What makes a good leader?
I think it really boils down to probably two very, very important things for me personally. First one is commitment; I think in order to have a team really on the same page as you, you've got to lead by example. So being the one in your office who's got the most passion and who's in there doing the work. If the team sees that, naturally they're going to follow. It becomes contagious. So, commitment is a big one for me.
And the other one is compassion. I think people around you need to see that you're as much there for them as they are for you. So it's always going to be in an environment where there's give and take; as long as you're there as a leader giving as much as you take, you can't go wrong.
What do you believe has shaped your leadership style?
I think I've been pretty fortunate over the years; I've had a pretty linear career. I've gone from the bottom up, and by doing that I've seen almost every aspect of the accounting career. So that's definitely shaped my leadership style in a long way. It has given me the opportunity to develop a little bit more empathy I think; knowing exactly what it's like doing the bottom and also doing the top of the job. And by doing that, you can put yourself in the shoes of your team; it makes life a lot easier if you can feel exactly what they're feeling. So that certainly helped.
The other big thing for me is I've got a fantastic network around me. I've been quite lucky to meet a lot of awesome people in Newcastle, but also wider than that in Central Coast and Sydney, who I can call upon at any time. So when I need advice, when I need a second sounding board, I've got them there and I think that consistently shakes my leadership style too, having other people to grow with.
What motivates and drives you?
I love being part of other people's successes. And accounting is one of those careers where you can be part of that every day. One of the things that motivates me most is being able to be part of people's big wins and also their little wins as well. I'll find every day you get a phone call or an email from someone who doesn't know where to go next or who doesn't know what to do next to get to the end goal. Being able to suggest and be part of that, it's probably one of the best parts of the job. As an accountant, you're not just being a counter, you end up being a psychologist as well as a sounding board and everything else that comes with it. That, to me, is actually really, really encouraging. Being part of helping people get from A to B is probably the best part of the job, and that encourages me every day to keep on doing what I'm doing.
What is one action or task you ensure you incorporate into your diary each week?
I would say the most important one for me is downtime. What I do is allocate one day a week, usually it's on the weekend but no guarantees, where I say laptop lid is closed, phone calls can wait from business associates and whatnot. And it's just time for me, my family, my friends and what not. That's probably the biggest point, taking that 24 hours. It's amazing what 24 hours in a row can do to you, your own sanity and in making the rest of that week even better than it was going to be before. So that's probably a big-ticket item from a personal perspective.
Similar from a work perspective, I like to block out certain times during my work week where I'm just committing to answering emails, growing my business, talking to staff and doing other bits and pieces like that. It only has to be an hour here or there, but an hour of committed time to something special makes life a lot easier.
Which local businessperson do you find inspiring?
I've got two. Early on in my career when I started at PwC, I was very fortunate to work with a lady by the name of Caroline Mara, who's still there today. I guess for me she was very, very inspiring because it comes back to those two qualities we were talking about before -commitment and compassion. She was a leader by example and she exhibited both of those. And I think because of that, the office around her was a far more vibrant place.
And in more recent times, after doing a lot of work with Daniel Brown from Newcastle Financial Planning Group, I'm really, really in awe of how he's growing that business. But also how he has kept the staff engaged; he's got everyone going in the same direction, and to have that commitment and focus takes a lot of time and a lot of effort. He's done it really, really well. So, I'm excited to see where he goes with that. And at the same time, I'm excited to grow alongside that as well, in much the same direction that Dan is going.

Error: playername is not a valid member of Workspace. How to fix?
I'm making an admin gui for my game, in that gui there's a button that's supposed to set WalkSpeed to 100, and the same with JumpPower for the local player. Please help!
This is what the correct code looks like.
Your script worked fine, but i still got this error message... I've never seen this error before, so i dont know what to do because of that.
Fixed it. I changed the "FindFirstChild("Humanoid")" to "WaitForChild("Humanoid")". Still, Thank you alot for your original fix!


How To Upload A Picture On Instagram From Computer: Instagram introduced a massive modification today, introducing a fully-functional internet application that lets you publish pictures from a phone internet browser, no application required. Instagram didn't officially add the alternative to desktop computer browsers, however it exists-- you simply need to discover it.
The majority of internet browsers have a way of letting you change the "Customer Agent"-- the thing that tells an internet site what sort of tool you get on. So, even when you're on a laptop or desktop computer, you can deceive a site like Instagram into showing you the mobile website. That's just what we're going to do.
On Safari, it's very easy. Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check package at the really lower that states, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Now open a personal searching home window. Head to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Go to Instagram.com, log in as well as click the camera button at the end of the screen to publish an image from your desktop computer.
In Chrome, most likely to Instagram.com and also log in. Now right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet symbol (top-left). The page needs to switch to mobile view, where you'll find a camera button at the end of the display, which lets you post a picture from your desktop computer.
Numerous Instagrammers-- myself included-- shoot images on a dSLR cam and modify them on their computer before publishing to Instagram. That means having to move the ended up photo to a phone (by means of AirDrop or e-mail), which is troublesome, at finest.
