Mother-of-Pearl Dial
Mother-of-pearl is by its nature full of mystery and surprises. Depending on its origin, it can be pink, white, black or yellow. It differs in colour, intensity and structure according to the part of the shell from which it is extracted. At Rolex, mother-of-pearl is never artificially coloured. Instead, particular know-how and skill are devoted to simply highlighting its natural beauty and preserving the original hues. As all mother-of-pearl dials are unique pieces, an identical dial will never be found on another wrist.
Diamond-Set Bezel
Gem-setters, like sculptors, finely carve the precious metal to hand-shape the seat in which each gemstone will be perfectly lodged. With the art and craft of a jeweller, the stone is placed and meticulously aligned with the others, then firmly secured in its gold or platinum setting. Besides the intrinsic quality of the stones, several other criteria contribute to the beauty of Rolex gem-setting: the precise alignment of the height of the gems, their orientation and position, the regularity, strength and proportions of the setting as well as the intricate finishing of the metalwork. A sparkling symphony to enhance the watch and enchant the wearer.
18 ct white gold
By operating its own exclusive foundry, Rolex has the unrivalled ability to cast the highest quality 18 ct gold alloys. According to the proportion of silver, copper, platinum or palladium added, different types of 18 ct gold are obtained: yellow, pink or white. They are made with only the purest metals and meticulously inspected in an in-house laboratory with state-of-the-art equipment, before the gold is formed and shaped with the same painstaking attention to quality. Rolex's commitment to excellence begins at the source.
All Rolex watches are assembled by hand with the utmost care to ensure exceptional quality. Such high standards naturally restrict Rolex production capacity and, at times, the demand for Rolex watches outpaces this capacity.
Therefore, the availability of certain models may be limited. New Rolex watches are exclusively sold by Official Rolex Jewelers, who receive regular deliveries and independently manage the allocation and sales of watches to customers.
Long's Jewelers is proud to be part of the worldwide network of Official Rolex Jewelers and can provide information on the availability of Rolex watches.
HOW TO SET YOUR DATEJUST 31
Synonymous with excellence and reliability, Rolex watches are designed for everyday wear, and de-pending on the model, perfectly suited for a wide range of sports and other activities. Built to last, these timepieces are characterized by their distinc-tive and timeless aesthetics. The Oyster Perpetual Datejust 31 is the expression of everlasting appeal. Learn more about this watch and how to set the time and date by watching the video.
The Oyster Perpetual Datejust is the archetype of the classic watch thanks to functions and esthetics that never go out of fashion. This year, Rolex presents the Datejust 36 featuring new 'palm' and 'fluted' dial motifs. The palm motif evokes lush, vibrant tropical forests, while the fluted motif showcases the pattern found on a range of Rolex bezels that has become one of the brand's signature esthetic styles.

Something More Weekly
The ongoing story of my actual life in South London
#71 Sit back and turn up the volume
It was the second bank holiday weekend in May. I lay on a futon, that I had dragged out into the garden, to soak up some of the sun that had appeared, boldly, for that one day in the week and as I lay there, I reflected on the variance in my moods of late and the sense of wellbeing that I had come across at times. I could remember very little about the first few days of the week, except that I was profoundly happy. So unusual was it to find this level of happiness, let alone an unbroken three day run of it that I sought to question it.
My understanding of sources of happiness was limited. My parents, by nature it seemed were both happy people and I knew that a certain amount of a person's emotional palette was genetically determined. Tony Robbins, the American self-help guru would explain that happiness could be achieved through progress towards ones goals and contribution by helping others. The likes of OSHO, an Indian mystic, would argue that happiness didn't need to come from anything and that it was in our nature to be happy. In fact, he would say, if a person tries to achieve happiness, they will usually miss out on it, unless they find it in the pursuit of that achievement but even then it will evaporate when the goal is reached. Happiness is not an achievement, it's about realising that things are fine as they are.
My own experience of happiness was that it had come simply from an absence of problems. Work was going ok, health was ok, parents and sister were ok. In truth I had never really had any problems in my easy life but I tended to commit the sin of creating plenty in my own mind, even when they didn't really exist. Perhaps my brain felt like having a break for once and just letting itself be happy. The sunshine was certainly helping.

#70 Party party
"Cards Against Humanity is a party game for horrible people. Unlike most of the party games you've played before, Cards Against Humanity is as despicable and awkward as you and your friends". It was about eight o'clock and to get the guests chuckling with a mix of suppressed glee and guilt, Naino had launched us into the most politically incorrect form of entertainment since Trey Parker and Matt Stone started playing with little 2D eight year olds and filming it. Fortunately, the young, white, heterosexual and able-bodied group of friends around the table were inherently unlikely to be offended by any of the inappropriate sentences encountered. They were the exact target audience at which the game was aimed, which is of course, why they found themselves playing it. It helped that Naino had spent four hours that week diligently cutting up the little cards, which you can find myah.
In one particular episode of House, the maverick doctor diagnoses what he refers to as the world's first case of human parthenogenesis, a virgin birth, to a woman who I think didn't want her husband to find out that she'd been cheating on him. Hugh Laurie's character explains how one other case was theorised, referring of course to Jesus. A friend informed me this weekend that there are in fact many reported cases of virgin births worldwide and most interestingly, many more than can generally be explained by the human propensity to lie, a factor to which House usually gave a great deal of respect.
#69 Pomp it up
"We're across the road in Wetherspoons" texted Rich. "Cripes, you're starting early" I replied. When I got there, he was sipping a coffee. The minibus turned up and took us to Go Ape, that thing where you climb up trees and then walk across rope bridges on a safety line. Activities that can be enjoyed by both kids and adults are generally not appropriate for stag weekends, with the possible exceptions of karting and paintballing. Still, we tried to be creative by bailing up hay and holly at the bottom of the zip lines so that the next person smashed into it at the bottom. Don't do this yourself.
By 2pm, we were done pretending to live dangerously. The minibus weaved through the country roads of Kent and we started boozing. Rob stood above Rich with a look of complete concentration as he tightened the gimp mask around the stag's head from whence hung the One Direction dog tag that I'd picked up in Tesco moments earlier. We sank a few cans and eventually checked into Portsmouth's Ibis Budget for more pres. Rich was langered at this point. The ship came into the harbour and brought with it all kinds of shite, including shots of some really bleurghy rum but it was ok my brothers cause we were about to head to the Chinese buffet.
Kind of knowing where the three cabs we'd ordered were but also kind of not, we hobbled across the city and gave them a ring to give our locations. The drivers turned up about five minutes apart from each other as we strolled but they found us. Rich's phone had been confiscated by one of the lads, who posted an ultrasound foetus pic on his Facebook wall, which the others then started to congratulate. Rich drunkenly led me towards the buffet and then hurried to the John to chuck for the next hour and a half before a couple of boys took him back to the hotel. We hit the pub and then the club.
I found Brightwell and Stu in the corner next to the treasure chest of cocktails Yates had layed on, got rid of a couple of them and helped out with the fishbowl before staggering off to do some dancing on my own somewhere. The bass line thudded from the floor below but it hadn't started to fill up yet, so I wandered around and around, occasionally rendezvousing with Rob, who also likes to wander around clubs on his own. There can be only one but I don't really mind if the other one's Rob. So. We danced. The awesome thing about this place, if you don't know it that well, is that there's another massive club through the door on the other side of one of the blokes' toilets. You could probably spend a night there and not notice it. There is another entrance somewhere but it's a big place. Anyway, we found it and went in there and bounced around for a while.
At about 1:30, we were back outside. The night was still young but we wanted chips. Leaping up onto the plastic garbage bins without falling through them, I made my way around the back of the carpark and met up with two of the guys. The McDonald's drive-thru wasn't buying our impression of a car and told us we had to be in one, so we called a taxi, took it through and then parked up. Sitting in the foyer of the Ibis Budget eating chips, we started to weigh up whether to head out again and decided to. Different sort of club. By 4am, I'd handed over the last of the cash and stuck some stuff on card. We grabbed a cab back to the hotel, set an alarm for a few hours later and collapsed into bed.

The way code hoisting works applies to functions and variables a bit differently, so we're going to examine each one individually.
That's pretty straightforward. Running this will log Hello! to the console.
This code works in exactly the same way as the previous example, but how? We called the sayHello() function before we declared it, so why does this code work?
The answer is that the function declaration was hoisted to the top, effectively making both of these examples work as if they were written like the first example.
Whenever you declare and initialize a function with the function keyword, that function is hoisted to the top of the scope where you declared it at runtime. This allows you to call the function before declaring it.
That's essentially how function hoisting works.
Before we dive in to how variables are hoisted it's important to understand the difference between declaring a variable and initializing a variable.
This example logs 42 to the console, as expected.
This code logs undefined to the console, which is an interesting outcome.
What About Variables Containing Functions?

Film review – Escape Room
Posted by kimnewman ⋅ January 28, 2019 ⋅ Leave a comment
My notes on Escape Room (2019), due out in UK cinemas February 1.
This is the third horror film released in the last two years using this title and approximate premise. Some ideas are too obvious not to be used, evidently – but it is entirely appropriate that the 'escape room' craze should inspire filmmakers since it was itself influenced by movies like Cube and Saw in which folks are trapped in confined spaces and have to solve puzzles to get out. Among many, many films on that pattern – ranging in scale from The Maze Runner to Buried – are a few that could easily be adapted into escape room attractions – Fermat's Room, Breathing Room, etc. Of course, the feature of horror films not carried over by real escape rooms is the Raft of the Medusa game whereby the trappees spend at least as much time screwing each other over as they do working together to figure out an exit – among the smartest moments in this perhaps surprisingly well-thought-out formula picture comes when one character reasons that the masterminds of the diabolical trap want the group to turn on each other and insists they share resources and collaborate rather than compete. It doesn't work out perfectly – yes, one character does turn out to be an irredeemable asshole – but it makes a refreshing change from the modish misanthropy that's been hardwired into this segment of horror since the torture porn craze.
It opens with a suspense sequence very reminiscent of Fermat's Room as random dude Ben (Logan Miller) drops into a cosy, cluttered room full of antiques and has to solve maths problems as the walls close in … then flashes back to much earlier in the game, as six folks are lured by puzzle boxes sent by trusted associates (a trick that goes back to Agatha Christie's original 'escape room' premise And Then There Were None) to an office building in downtown Chicago on the promise of a big money prize if they get out of a new attraction which is being beta-tested. Our players either get intro scenes sketching their characters or flashbacks establishing prior traumas – all have survived real-life death traps previously – and jittery supermarket worker Ben joins scarred veteran Amanda (Deborah Ann Woll), friendly blue-collar Mike (Tyler Labine), financial advisor Jason (Jay Ellis), shy student Zoey (Taylor Russell) and escape room addict Danny (Nik Dodani).
These representative flawed folk sit about a bland reception room getting to know each other, then heating elements come on in the walls and they realise this is the first of a series of traps … as if Escape Room were a Cube redo with budget for more than one reusable set, offering a range of milieux (an upside-down bar, a frozen lake, etc). An early death (which mimics one of the most memorable moments of Omen 2) convinces everyone this isn't just a game, and we get decently-written and –acted character interplay between horror and suspense moments. As usual, it seems the villains are 'rich sickos' – with a shadowy organisation represented by the anagrammatical Dr WooTan Yu (Yorick von Wageningen) staging these snuff gameshows for an even more shadowy audience. As usual, there's a tension between indicting us as the sort of folks who pay to watch others suffer and the basic appeal of drama as we identify with the players. Mostly, it's clever, twist-ridden stuff and the solid cast is a nicely balanced mix of not-yet-star names and recognisable friendly faces who keep us off-balance … we know Ben will make it at least to near the end, but everyone else is in peril and the body count isn't quite in the expected order.
Written by Bragi F. Schut (remember the Nicolas Cage medieval horror Season of the Witch?) and Maria Melnik (staff writer on Black Sails and American Gods), this is directed by Adam Robitel, who has already gone from striking standalone low-budget debut (The Taking of Deborah Logan) to dues-paying franchise entry (Insidious The Last Key) and is likely to be in on the ground floor of a new franchise with this sequel-friendly effort. A coda and a tag suggest that escaping from here just leads to a bigger trap, but also that if this clicks we'll be back for more. Like Final Destination, Saw and Paranormal Activity, the basic idea offers so many permuatations and the working-out begs so many questions that it'll be easy to do one of these every year or so for a long haul.

Q: strings casting to negative integer T-sql So i learned in my Sql course last week how to turn a string into an integer. the table we used for this was timezone based. so it was '-5' hours offset.
in order to do this we had to cast the string to a DECIMAL and then to an SMALLINT.  It was pretty simple once I knew that , thats not where my question lies.
what im curious about is why a SMALLlNT wouldnt take a negative sign but A Decimal could do it. according to the specs a SMALLINT still can go to -32768. so does anyone know if this persists in all coding languages or is it just SQL specific? As well as what wont allow it to cast

A: I don't see why you would bother doing any casting to begin with? According to the documentation (see table 1/3 down the page), T-SQL supports implicit conversion between varchar and smallint.
DECLARE @negative_varchar VARCHAR(10) = '-5'

DECLARE @negative_smallint SMALLINT = CONVERT(SMALLINT, @negative_varchar)

DECLARE @negative_smallint_implicit SMALLINT = @negative_varchar

SELECT @negative_varchar, @negative_smallint, @negative_smallint_implicit

Produces
---------- ------ ------
-5         -5     -5

A: no this is what im saying  (declare @s as nvarchar
@s=-5
(50) = CAST (@s AS SMALL INT)
again you have to cast from decimal then small int. im asking about the underlying code behind the process.
such as does one of the bytes hold whether a number is positive or negative etc...

When I was ten, my grandmother told me how she and her two sisters wrote to movie stars in the '40's and '50's. This was back in the days of true Hollywood glamour, when the idea of "celebrity" was not necessarily taboo. These were the days of the Hepburns. Clark Gable, Humphrey Bogart and Jimmy Stewart. There was Vivien Leigh and Bette Davis, Elizabeth Taylor and Rita Hayworth. Not to mention, Cary Grant, Gregory Peck, and John Wayne. Some stars would write back to them, some would not. Nonetheless, it gave the three girls no less a thrill knowing their words and penmanship traveled from a small town in rural Alabama to California and the hands of someone great.
After hearing this story, I got a few of my friends together and had a "fan mail" party. We wrote cards and letters, included school pictures of ourselves and the beaches we lived close by. I wrote to the Backstreet Boys, JTT, and Han Solo (who, I found out, was moonlighting as a handsome, middle-aged actor named Harrison Ford). Much of our mail went unanswered, lost in the shuffle or simply disregarded. However, a few wrote back and thanked us for the kindness and encouragement. I hardly remember who wrote back, but I remember the return message – "thank you." As if a word from a kid who lived on a very small island in Florida had touched or bolstered them somehow.
Several years went by. I grew more reserved and internal. Writing was rapidly becoming that thing I wanted to do with my life. When I wasn't writing or involved in school activities, you could find me sitting on the screen porch pouring over the words of other writers—in books, magazines, newspapers. The letters I sent out into the world changed. I no longer wanted to write to celebrities. Not the ones I saw on television or in the movies, anyway. I wrote to authors. At fourteen, I read A Girl Named Summer by Julie Garwood. The same year I read Nora Roberts' first book for Silhouette, Irish Thoroughbred. Both made me want to write love stories. In my 10th grade English/Lit class, I read The Count of Monte Cristo, Les Miserables, and Romeo and Juliet. If Dumas, Hugo, or Shakespeare had still been alive at the time, I would have flooded their collective inboxes with fan mail.
When I turned sixteen, my younger sister read The Hatchet and together we drove to see Gary Paulsen speak at our local community center. We read the Harry Potter series and wrote personal letters to J.K. Rowling thanking her for filling our long summer days with stories of Hogwarts, Diagon Alley, Hogsmeade and Privet Drive. We thanked her for the rare companionship and commonality the books provided. (We didn't agree on much. We didn't even mutually like that many things. But we loved those books with enough delight and passion to fuel our imaginations for years to come.) My sister thanked Jo for the character of Ron who she hoped to someday marry. I informed her that my Hogwarts letter seemed to be very late and asked which Houses we could expect to be sorted into (hinting very plainly that it didn't have to be the same one).
This was in the fledging days of Amazon and eBay, Yahoo and Google. There wasn't a place readers like me could go to write reviews or chat about books other than book clubs in the city I was too young to attend. So snail mail and the occasional email address offered by an author was really my only way of telling these writers how much their work had moved me. Today, it's much easier to let a writer know how we feel about their work. It's nice having outlets like Goodreads, Amazon, blogs, and Twitter to rate/review/brag on/debate the latest read. As much as I craved reviews and professional feedback in the beginning of my writing career, it's the reaction of the readers, those words they write on review sites, and the emails they send that have the most impact.
Last week, I could hardly find a scarce moment to breathe, much less write. One night, my toddler was having a meltdown. My newborn wouldn't nap for more than a half-hour at a time. Bedtime rolled around and the hub took over, getting everyone situated for the night while I sat down and took a moment. There was a spit-up stain on my shoulder. I had yet to eat dinner and my stomach was growling but first I opened my email…and there was a note from a reader. The praise and encouragement therein could not have come at a better time and despite the trying afternoon and evening, I stayed up and wrote.
That's the thing. Just like every reader, our favorite writers are fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers. Some are stay-at-home parents and many leave the house for day jobs. Sometimes they have bad days, whether from writing itself or from everyday stress. Sometimes they need that little extra something to bolster them through those late night writing sessions after the kiddies go to sleep to let them know they've reached someone else's mind or heart.
So I'd like to take a moment to say "thank you" to our Superromance readers, to readers everywhere, for the support, the kindness, and for meeting us on that wonderful bridge!
Years ago I write to an author who lives in England. He wrote a series of books about an antique car. My son just loved these books. The author wrote back with a beautiful letter and an autographed photo of the real car that inspired the stories. My son was thrilled to pieces. We still have the letter & photo tucked away in one of the books.
It was a simple thing for me to do, but it made everyone so happy.
Mary, so great that he wrote back personally! My aunt and uncle gave me an autographed book once with a personal letter from the author inside. It was one of my favorite presents as an adolescent.
In 1999 I wrote (by hand and from Australia) to an Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actress.
And then pretty much fell over when I received a hand-written response! I don't think that happens now, in the age of social media (mind you, I wrote about a particular issue, and she wrote about the same issue, so her "people" probably recommended my letter).
I don't comment here much at the moment, but Supers are still my go-to category romances.
20 years ago when I lived in England I wrote letters to my Mom and everyone else here in the USA. Now living here we all talk on the phone or by email. hehe hand writing sounds old fashion now.


Fat banger, drum & bass with some ragga inrtudaz'.
This is the one you've truly been waiting for. The Blend LP drops at the perfect time for the Dutty Audio camp, after a series of acclaimed singles and EPs and high profile bookings for label boss BTK and other Dutty artists. With a varied, vivid collection over 11 tracks, the album builds on, and expands Dutty's universe, delivering track after track of quality neuro- and tech-inspired music.
Contributions come from veterans like Optiv & BTK and Maldini, and newer names like Level 2 and Cern. Expect heavy hitting sounds, blended with the finest production on display in the scene. The album is a trip, so get strapped in.
The Blend title could not be more apt, as the album ranges from the old skool-tinged blasts of C.A.B.L.E's future classic Individual, to Cern's ominous Fourth State. There's heavyweight business like label boss BTK and Optiv's majestic Let It Loose, complete with live-sounding drums and sliding effects, and the usual insanity from Teddy Killerz in the shape of the mean, sinewy, but still musical Mock.

For those that are perhaps seeing these transcriptions for the first time, the transcriptions may give on first glance, the appearance of a great many typos, so I feel obligated to explain that the abundance of y, m, and d represent abbreviations for year, month and day. Although you will find most engravers follow similar patterns, it seems there are several different abbreviations used to represent these three time terms including: y, yr, yrs, yr's & years; m. mo, mos, mo's, and months; d. da, das, da's, and days and on rare occasions, h, hr, hrs, hr's, and hours. I tend not to use commas except to separate surname from given name, given name from date, except where found on actual inscription, same goes for the [.] (period). When you see the symbol [_] (underscore), I use it to represent missing or unreadable letters, or if a lot of letters are unreadable I may express it by several periods, such as Jos...h . Sometimes you will find raised letters such as "c" in surnames such as in McClain, or if the engraver added smaller letters that were left out and added later, when I encounter them, tend to express them, when possible, as found on the stone. Sometimes engravers will use the latin term Æ or æ, this is just a term that generally replaces the word "aged". One last comment, all actual text found engraved, will come first in bold text. All comments, observations, personal knowledge remarks added by submitter, concerning an individual, but not inscribed on stone, will then proceed in regular text. ~R.M.Sizelove~

This little family cemetery is located on a wooded hillside on private property, at Edge Hill Dr. & Dry Creek Rd. Early maps of the area show the area was once owned by J. Bowman Estate & S. Bowman. I found most of the tombstones at this site in broken, toppled, disarray. A previous owner of this property told me this little cemetery was basically intact with all headstones still in their bases and upright until teenagers decimated many of the stones into unreadable fragments. There were two very large obelisk style headstones that were toppled, sliding down the hillside, now lying nearly hidden by soil and vegetation. The owner has been very kind to give me permission to organize and restore the headstones back to original positions, which will be difficult but possible, as the very large bases look to still be at their original location. Please do not trespass on the owner's property; permission must be obtained first before coming here. I'm hopeful after talking with the previous owner, that with his best recollection, the headstones may be reset in proper location. These readings are preliminary, and my hopes are to return and make both limited restoration and additional investigation of the burial site. I have checked older books but find no previous record concerning this cemetery.

Academics across the nation, many of whom were previously reluctant to become public advocates for research, voiced their collective support for science at the March for Science on Earth Day and the People's Climate March last weekend.
Now, many are asking, what's next? How can they continue to advocate for and communicate the relevance of their work to the public, political representatives and the news media?
This month, UC San Diego's Divisions of Biological and Physical Sciences will launch a Research Communications program designed to address that need. Funded by a two-year, $225,000 grant from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, the new effort seeks to improve the ability of faculty members, postdoctoral fellows and other researchers on campus to communicate their work to the public.
"In an age in which there are significant doubts among certain portions of society about the value of science and scientific discovery, it's vitally important that today's research scientists find better ways to communicate to the public the value of new discoveries in science," said Jeffrey Remmel, a professor of mathematics and the program's principal investigator.
Drawing on expertise across many disciplines, the first year of the program will teach researchers to become more effective communicators inside as well as outside the classroom. A three-day, hands-on workshop, "Talking Research: Improving Science Dialogue," taught by Kim Rubinstein, a professor of theatre and dance, for example, will strengthen the ability of faculty members to vividly articulate their research to a variety of different audiences.
Other workshops this year will teach researchers how to use video, images and social media to explain their work to the public, as well as to connect with venture capitalists and work with professional scientific societies to become public representatives for their disciplines.
The first event for the Research Communications program is a May 17 seminar by Dennis Meredith, a science communications expert and author of Explaining Research: How to Reach Key Audiences to Advance Your Work.
His talk, which runs from noon to 1 p.m. in the Natural Sciences Building auditorium, will provide researchers with an overview of the tools and techniques for giving effective presentations. He will also show faculty members and others how they can more productively work with the news media.
That seminar will be followed by two in-depth workshops in June. One will show researchers how to tell their stories of discovery by working closely with their designated campus communication directors. The other is the three-day hands-on Talking Research workshop taught by Rubinstein that will combine techniques from theatre improvisation, journalism and brain science to help faculty find the spark or root of their work, distill their message, develop their own voice and engage listeners by speaking with authenticity. The workshop will culminate in a media day in which faculty will be interviewed on camera and critiqued by Rubinstein.
The second year of the program will feature workshops designed by science communication experts on campus as well as nationally recognized experts from outside the university to help researchers improve their ability to connect with political representatives and federal and state science agencies. Other workshops will help faculty by developing research-based strategies for effective dialogue with the public about politicized or contentious scientific issues.
"Given the current threats to core science funding, this new Moore Foundation-supported program will allow our scholars and other experts to teach scientists how to explain the beauty and significance of their discoveries to anyone, not just other scientists," said McGinnis.

Starwood Preferred Guest Missing from Top Hotel Loyalty Programs, According to J.D. Power
Deanna Ting, Skift
- Apr 08, 2016 10:22 am
Interestingly, the Starwood Preferred Guest program, beloved among frequent travelers, ranked near the bottom, and it's never fared well in past J.D. Powers' reports. So, why is it so admired, and why does Marriott want it so badly?
— Deanna Ting
The third annual J.D. Power Hotel Loyalty/Rewards Program Satisfaction Report is out and this year, Hilton Worldwide and Marriott International took top honors, tying for first place in terms of overall customer satisfaction, followed by InterContinental Hotel Group.
The full list is included below.
Interestingly, the Starwood Preferred Guest program, which has historically never fared well in J.D. Powers' hotel loyalty program report, ranked second to last, with an index score of 674. Last year, its score was 661 and in 2014, it was 651, ranking well below average.
One reason is that SPG caters to the most elite travelers but makes it difficult for less frequent travelers to even qualify for the lower tiers. (See more below.)
So, what made Hilton and Marriott tops? This was the second year in a row that Hilton HHonors ranked highest, and according to J.D. Power, its program scored very well in terms of account maintenance/management, as well as reward program terms and the variety of available benefits for members. Marriott, on the other hand, scored well in ease of redeeming points/miles, reward program terms, and ease of earning points/miles. Last year, Marriott ranked fifth overall.
The report drew on the responses of more than 3,096 U.S. consumers who have joined a hotel loyalty plan and answered an online survey in February 2016. The overall customer satisfaction index takes the following factors into account (and in order of importance): account maintenance/management (23 percent); ease of redeeming points/miles (22 percent); ease of earning points/miles (18 percent); variety of benefits (16 percent); reward program terms (16 percent); and customer service (5 percent). Satisfaction was measured on a 1,000-point scale, and both Marriott and Hilton earned scores of 741.
What Happened to SPG?
Hotel loyalty programs are serious business in the hospitality space. It could even be argued that some hotel loyalty programs are almost worth spending $13.6 billion for.
On April 1, Marriott CEO Arne Sorenson said, "The most important thing for us to succeed at is the loyalty program," referring to Marriott's pending acquisition of Starwood. "You've got, with SPG [Starwood Preferred Guest] and Marriott Rewards, two big groups of very loyal customers. We've got to make sure you're enthusiastic about the changes. I think we can make sure the benefits stay the same, if not get better, and offer them [SPG members] a broader selection of places to stay."
Interestingly enough, the SPG program has historically never fared well in J.D. Powers' hotel loyalty program report. This year, it was ranked second to last, with an index score of 674. Last year, its score was 661 and in 2014, it was 651, ranking well below average.
Looking at other hotel loyalty rankings, SPG also generally ranks lower than Marriott's. According to U.S. News & World Report's most recent list of Best Hotel Rewards Programs, Marriott Rewards was No. 1 and SPG came in eighth (and Hilton came in at ninth). To calculate those rankings, an algorithm examines factors such as ease of earning a free night, additional benefits, geographical coverage, number of hotels in network, and property diversity. In the 2015 Freddie Awards, Marriott Rewards was named best program of the year in the Americas and SPG won for Best Redemption Ability in the Americas.
And yet, SPG members possess a reputation for their passion and program loyalty. So much so, that it was mentioned by Sorenson during Marriott and Starwood's joint investor call on April 1. He said, "… We have been impressed by the loyalty that SPG members have for Starwood and its hotels," later adding, "… From the moment we announced the transaction we have seen a very robust debate among SPG members about 'What's going to happen to our points, and is this good for me or is it bad for me?'"
The real reason SPG has historically ranked so low on J.D. Powers' reports? It caters more to frequent business travelers and road warriors, rather than the everyday leisure traveler, said Rick Garlick, global practice lead, travel and hospitality, for J.D. Power. "Other studies that rate loyalty programs look at everything other than customer satisfaction scores. Ours only looks at the customer feedback rating, and we really look at people at all tiers and all levels of a program."
Garlick said that J.D. Powers tries to ensure that random but representative sample of members are surveyed for each program, so there isn't a majority of elite status members or non-elite status members, for example. Starwood, he said, rewards its elite members handsomely in comparison to Hilton and Marriott, but makes it much harder for members to achieve even the lowest tier of status in its program. For example, SPG gold status requires 25 qualifying nights; Hilton HHonors' and Marriott Rewards' lowest status tiers require only 10.
"If you're higher status in Starwood's program, you achieve more rewards and you like the status you achieve if you're really a guest," Garlick said. "Our report looks more at the general traveling public — not the elite travelers that Starwood's program appeals to the most. The more engaged you are [with a program], the better you like it."
Loyalty Leads to Profits
A recent PriceWaterhouse Coopers' Consumer Intelligence Series report, "What's driving customer loyalty for today's hotel brands?" seems to echo Garlick's assessment. It summarized that, "hotel companies will need to decide how to prioritize investments that drive brand engagement across all consumer segments, while simultaneously targeting the most profitable demographic. Ultimately, brands that drive the greatest engagement will likely accrue the highest revenue gains."
As the J.D Power rankings show, having multiple brands, wide distribution networks, and lots of partnerships, as well as catering to a wider set of travelers, distinguishes great programs from the rest and that's exactly what both Marriott and Hilton are attempting to do with their respective loyalty programs.
To keep guests loyal, and battle the encroachment of online travel agencies in terms of market share, both Hilton and Marriott are enticing their rewards members with the lowest guaranteed hotel rates and a variety of special perks for booking direct. And the more members they have, the better, which is why Sorenson is so keen on bringing in SPG members into the Marriott Rewards fold.
For Hilton CEO Christopher Nassetta, customer loyalty is invaluable. At the World Travel & Tourism Council in Dallas on April 6, he said having scale as one of the biggest hotel companies in the world is crucial for generating customer loyalty. "I think about scale, for us, as creating a network effect, which means we can serve any customer for any need they have, anywhere in the world they want to be," he said. "When we have the ability to do that we drive unbelievable loyalty. And that unbelievable loyalty shows up in very high levels of market share, and those very high levels of market share drive more growth."

I get a lot of questions from people asking, Will real estate investing work in my market? The truth is, real estate investing works in every market, but you need to learn your market and adapt the techniques that it requires.
There are many ways to describe real estate markets, including hot versus flat or rising versus falling or buyer's versus seller's.
All real estate markets are subject to fluctuations, but these fluctuations typically do not greatly influence the ability for the informed investor to make a profit.
In fact, some strategies, such as flipping, can be the least risky way for a beginning investor to make a profit in an uncertain market simply because of the relatively short amount of time the flipper will own the property.
Unlike the stock and commodities markets, real estate markets don't rise and fall rapidly. For long-term investing, additional market factors are important to your buying decision.
Investors who plan for short-term real estate market appreciation are speculating, which is outside of the basic model of low-risk investing.
Let's be clear: there is no such thing as an ideal real estate market for investing. It tends to be more difficult to find bargains in rising markets, however, because if the market keeps rising, the probability of selling the property quickly for a large profit increases.
In contrast, when property values are falling, more so-called bargains become available. Yet you need to assess the true value of these properties based on when you expect to sell the property. Thus, your purchase must be made at a steep discount to allow for a profitable sale later.
Some basic strategies can be used successfully in virtually all market conditions. Become educated in your local market first by understanding the large-scale trends from global down to national, regional, and specific neighborhoods.
Learn about target neighborhoods, enlisting the aid of successful real estate professionals along the way.
These professionals will help interpret market indicators, such as the average length of time houses are sitting on the market this month versus last month or last year. Armed with this type of information, you will be able to make good decisions.
Inventory, defined as the number of properties offered for sale, is a good indicator of current market trends. If inventory is low because of building restrictions or geography, then high demand will lead to rising prices.
In rising markets, sellers often capitalize on the excitement of new listings to get properties under contract quickly, at premium asking prices.
There are also seasonal fluctuations in inventory, such as fewer listed properties in the winter months than in summer and a surge of listings in the spring. Some areas, such as resort destinations, follow seasonal trends.
Generally, seasonal drops in inventory reflect the trend to market properties more aggressively in spring and summer months when real estate markets are more active.
Properties sell year-round, though investors should plan to reduce the price for winter listings or at least know that properties take longer to sell during those months.
While most markets have risen over the last five years, some are flattening out, and some may have already dropped.
This type of market offers great opportunity to the savvy investor. When property values are falling, inventory often rises, and many sellers become highly motivated when their properties fail to sell quickly.
Motivated sellers will do whatever it takes to sell their property. Whether sellers need to move from the area, are struggling financially, or have other pressing reasons to sell, they may well accept a below-market offer.
Investors know that a weak market can offer extraordinary deals, though flippers need to proceed with caution. In a falling market, even a few months delay can turn a sound deal into a headache.
It always pays to know the market and purchase the property at a price low enough to net an eventual profit, even if the market continues to fall. The common myth is that you cannot make money by in a bad real estate market.
In a bad real estate market, you can often buy junker properties for 50 cents on the dollar and sell them for 60 cents. It's all in how you do the math.
It is also worth noting that markets can and will change. If the market rebounds after a purchase, then all is well for the investor. However, if the market takes a downturn after a purchase, there can be trouble ahead.
Markets commonly show signs of slowing or turning over several months. Sometimes the early signs come from national economic trends, such as rapidly rising interest rates or sweeping changes in tax policies that affect homeownership or investment (e.g., the rapid change in depreciation rules for real estate investors in the late 1980s).
More likely, clues come from local market conditions, such as unemployment, oversupply, or a change in demand because of living conditions.
More important than guessing the future of a local market, you need to have a clear plan in mind when purchasing property.
A smart investor knows exactly how he will exit the property before he buys. An even smarter investor will have a backup plan or two, in case the first course of action doesn't work. In short, know your market and your plan before you begin to invest.

Magix Vegas Pro, test and free trial version
VEGAS Pro is a safe bet, professional software that is both powerful and easy to use. Admittedly its price does not intend it all but it is to try free and without hesitation!
New features of VEGAS Pro 15:
Support for latest graphics cards for hardware acceleration
New OFX plugin
ACES 1.0 support
New BlueFX 5 ultimate filters
Integration of the HitFilm Movie Essential compositing tool
What to do with Vegas Pro?
First developed and said by Sony then taken up in 2016 by Magix, Vegas Pro is a must in video editing software.
Vegas Pro benefits from an efficient workflow at the service of the user and the results. As good in editing as in media processing, it allows the creation of professional-level video montages.
Concretely the software is divided into 4 areas:
– the library first, at the top left, will allow the editor to access his media, the explorer of files, transitions, effects as well as the generator of media (titles, generics, etc.).
– The drushage area (top in the middle)
– the sequencer, of course, below
– finally the preview area (top right)
Features for video and audio editing
By following this path, the user will be able to quickly produce a complex media: from editing to export, passing through sound reinforcement, adding effects, transitions, media (timings, titles, generics) and post processing.
VEGAS Pro manages an unlimited number of video tracks, supports multicam, HD, 4K and UHD and allows the integration of 390 video effects and 200 2D and 3D transitions.
And audio software is not outdone. Supporting bit rates / resolutions up to 24 bit / 192 kHz (up to 5.1), VEGAS Pro allows live sound recording, support VST2 and integrated 32 with 5.1 effects plugins. Note that the editing software manages, of course, the synchronization of audio / video tracks like a Final Cut Pro X.
Its handling:
Available in a 30-day free trial version, VEGAS Pro has a clear interface, full of editing tools and fully translated into French.
Extremely complete, the software now known as MAGIX seems ready to consolidate its place among the benchmarks in the field. Clubic recommends it!

Q: How to set my computerId into primary key? Here's my code in domain. I wanted to set my computerId into a primary key. But still display on my table(index). Thanks
package com.data

class ComputerInformation {

    String computerId;
    String computerName;
    String status;
    String location;
    String serial;
    String monitorSerial;
    String keyboardSerial;
    String mouseSerial;
    String cpuSerial;
    String avrSerial;
    String harddiskSerial;

    static constraints = {
        computerId(unique:true)
        computerName(blank:false)
        status(blank:false)
        location(blank:false)
        serial(blank:false)
        monitorSerial(blank:false)
        keyboardSerial(blank:false)
        mouseSerial(blank:false)
        cpuSerial(blank:false)
        avrSerial(blank:false)
        harddiskSerial(blank:false)
    }
}

A: use like this,
static mapping = {
        id name: 'computerId'
}

A: Maybe instead of changing PK, return id as a computerId variable?
package com.data

class ComputerInformation {

    String computerName;
    String status;
    String location;
    String serial;
    String monitorSerial;
    String keyboardSerial;
    String mouseSerial;
    String cpuSerial;
    String avrSerial;
    String harddiskSerial;

    static constraints = {
        computerName(blank:false)
        status(blank:false)
        location(blank:false)
        serial(blank:false)
        monitorSerial(blank:false)
        keyboardSerial(blank:false)
        mouseSerial(blank:false)
        cpuSerial(blank:false)
        avrSerial(blank:false)
        harddiskSerial(blank:false)
    }

    def getComputerId(){
        return id
    }
}

Moreover if you need computerId as a String, you can change getComputerId function to:
String getComputerId(){
        return id.toString()
}

Frank Sinatra's Classic Sinatra: His Great Performances, 1953-1960
Frank Sinatra, Classic Sinatra: His Great Performances, 1953-1960
Executive Producers: Roy Lott and Paul Atkinson
(Remastered by Bob Norberg)
Capitol Records, 2000
Frank Sinatra's voice is male, flexible, warm, and joyful on "I've Got the World on a String," a song of love and personal pride, written by Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler. The song was recorded in 1953 for Sinatra's This is Sinatra album. The sharp arrangement of the song by Nelson Riddle means Sinatra is not alone: as a man, he has witnesses, and as a musician he has help. Sinatra caresses the lyrics to Cole Porter's "I Get a Kick Out of You," in which an experienced man finds fascination in a new love. Sinatra hits the word "kick" in a way that gives it a jolt (it's an instance when the vernacular is genuinely—not merely hypothetically—lively). Sinatra's performance is soulful on a Gershwin song about lasting personal memories, "They Can't Take That Away From Me." What a singer.
There's a charming arrangement of "My Funny Valentine," the Rodgers and Hart song about affection for an imperfect love (one can almost see figures dance in the air). Frank Sinatra's voice has warmth and energy as he sings "Young at Heart," a song advocating optimism and resilience. "Someone to Watch Over Me," a Gershwin song recorded in 1954 for Songs for Young Lovers,has vulnerability, sadness, and hope, and I was surprised to find that I heard something a little hollow about Sinatra's singing on it, especially as "In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning," recorded in 1955 with lush strings, has no vocal faults.
Conversational, direct, lively, rhythmic, with an intelligent deployment of varied tones: that is Sinatra in Cole Porter's "I've Got You Under My Skin." (What is it about Porter that liberates? The sophistication? The sexiness? Everything?)
In Sinatra's interpretation of "You Make Me Feel So Young," a song by Joseph Myrow and Mack Gordon recorded in 1956, it is Sinatra's naturalness that is most attractive, and it is a naturalness worth considering: it is not boorish or crude but affectionate and eloquent and free.
"It Happened in Monterey" (from Songs for Swingin' Lovers) is a memory song, a location song, a regret song, and though charmingly done, I don't think it has much depth; and the arrangement seems too brassy. I was not that impressed with "Oh! Look at Me Now," a song about a changed attitude, from nonchalance to commitment. And then, there's Cole Porter's "Night and Day" (A Swingin' Affair), featuring obsessive thoughts about a beloved person—and Sinatra's personal authority is once again present.
Lyrics are a singer's meat (champagne?). I wondered if the big band musical setting did not work against the fundamental concerns of the lyrics in Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh's "Witchcraft." In the lyrics to "The Lady is a Tramp," there is suggestion that an individualist perspective alone can get a woman a bad reputation—something that seems true still. The lyrics of "All the Way" are tender, intelligent, understanding, but the song has a perceptible though not entirely engaging melody.
It is the ending of "Come Fly with Me" that gave me pause. A James Van Heusen/Sammy Cahn song recorded in 1957, it is as much a tribute to air travel as love, a modern theme, but neither the lyric nor melody seemed distinguished to me, and Sinatra ends the song with an emphasis that is nearly brute force. Following that, I can hardly hear "Put Your Dreams Away" about the reality of love; and consequently the sadly tender drinking song "One for My Baby (And One More for the Road)" is even more captivating and impressive in its consistent tone. The writers of "Come Fly with Me" also gave Sinatra "Come Dance with Me" and it is a call to dance and romance that is full of force, and for me the lyrics and vocal hover somewhere between the encouraging and the bullying. (Is that an echo of the dark side?) The collection ends, possibly necessarily, with a pleasant song with a light vocal about the beginning of a relationship, recorded in 1960, "Nice 'N' Easy."

Q: Three dimensional extension of Pascal's Theorem Pascal's Theorem states that for six distinct points on a two dimensional conic section forming a hexagon, the intersections of opposite sides are collinear. I am not an expert in geometry, but I thought it would be interesting to try and generalize this theorem to higher dimensions. For example, taking six distinct random points on the surface of an ellipsoid, can an interesting analogous result be found?  Clearly in general the opposite sides of the hexagon will not intersect.  However, after plotting some examples using Mathematica with six random points on an ellipsoid, I can see that the projection of the hexagon sides onto the the plane of my viewing reference, the projection intersections are always collinear no matter the orientation of the ellipsoid.  In the example below I have plotted six random points and varied the viewing angle of the ellipsoid.  In each case the intersecting points of the projection to my viewing plane are collinear. The same holds true for sample hyperboloids and sample paraboloids. Pascal's Theorem is a special case of this more general conjecture. Is there a proof of this conjecture, or else some ideas on how to prove this?

A: The projection of six points on the ellipsoid is six points inside the resulting ellipse. No further constraints apply: any point within the ellipse can be translated back (in a non-unique fashion) to a point on the ellipsoid. Furthermore, any configuration of points in the plane can be enclosed in the projection of an ellipsoid. So your conjecture would imply that any configuration of 6 points were to satisfy Pascal's Theorem, which is clearly not the case.
I'm not sure what happened in your observations. It might well be that speaking in terms of probabilities, configurations where the three intersections in the projection appear almost collinear are somewhat more probable than for 6 random points in the plane, but that would be a different question.

Grass root women are the main architect of country's women empowerment: Speaker
০৯:০৮ এএম | ০৪ ডিসেম্বর, ২০২১
Staff Correspondent, Barta24.com, Dhaka

Speaker of Jatiyo Sangsad Dr Shirin Sharmin Chowdhury said, not only the women who are in important positions, but also the grassroots women are the main artisans of women's empowerment in this country. Because the women of the marginal areas are the ones who have to deal with storms, floods, river erosion and other natural calamities. They never give up.
She was speaking as the special guest on the 3rd day of the 16-day '50th Anniversary of Victory: Red-Green Festival' organized by the FBCCI on Friday (December 3).
The event was held at the Hatirjheel Amphitheater in the capital on Friday with the participation of women.
Shirin Sharmin said that women were at the forefront of various important national movements including the mother language movement and independence movement. In the war of liberation, women fought with arms. Those who did not fight directly also cooperated with the freedom fighters in various ways.
FBCCI President Md Jasimuddin in a welcome speech said, 'Half of the population of the country is women. Women are successfully fulfilling their responsibilities in various important positions in different ministries. Women make up half of the workforce in the industrial sector, including readymade garments. In addition, rural women entrepreneurs have kept the country's grassroots economy afloat. Therefore, the active participation of women is essential for the successful implementation of the future economic plans of Bangladesh'.
He said that Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the greatest Bengali of all time, has laid the foundation for the social and economic status of women in today's Bangladesh. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the worthy daughter of Bangabandhu, has ensured the financial and social empowerment of women in its continuation. Her various initiatives have increased the participation of women in the Jatiyo Sangsad.
The FBCCI president said the FBCCI has 21 women's chambers and associations across the country. The FBCCI has always been supportive to women entrepreneurs.
Dhaka North City Corporation Mayor Atiqul Islam in his speech said Bangabandhu has given place to women in the constitution committee as a process for women's empowerment in Bangladesh. She has also introduced reserved women's seats in JS to increase women's participation in politics.
State Minister for Water Resources Zahid Farooq addressed as special guest. He said the Prime Minister believed that development of the country could be ensured if equal rights for men and women were ensured. Achieving gender equality is the main reason behind today's success in Bangladesh, claimed State Minister Zahid Farooq.
Speaking as the guest of honor on the occasion, Shafiul Islam Mohiuddin MP, former president of FBCCI, said that during the short tenure of Bangabandhu, Bangladesh was slowly moving towards development. But after his brutal assassination, the country was plunged into black darkness again. Overcoming hundreds of conspiracies, Bangladesh has overtaken India and Pakistan in many socio-economic indicators under the strong leadership of the Prime Minister during the rule of Awami League. Bangladesh has achieved satisfactory growth even in the adverse conditions of Covid.
After the brief speeches of the guests, a pleasant cultural program was held with songs and dances.
Nazrul Festival will be held on Saturday evening, the fourth day of the 16-day '50 Years of Victory: Red-Green Festival '. Minister for Social Welfare Nuruzzaman Ahmed will be present as the chief guest.

The Supreme Court of India has given a sensational verdict on the Hindu Inheritance Act. The main subject of the judgment was the property rights of Hindu widows and daughters.
From now on, Hindu women in India will have full rights over their property after the death of their father, even if they do not leave a will before death. In this case, the rights of the daughters will prevail over the nephews of the deceased.
The Supreme Court of India announced the verdict on Thursday (January 20). According to the verdict, Hindu women will be entitled to their father's acquired and other property. A bench of Justice S Abdul Nazir and Justice Krishna Murari of the country's highest court ruled in favor of the Madras High Court on an appeal against a ruling on the inheritance of property of Hindu women and widows.
The court said that in case of death before making a will, daughters would have more rights over the father's property than other members of the family. If a Hindu man dies before making a will, his property will be distributed among the heirs of deceased.However, the daughter of a deceased Hindu person will get more priority in inheritance of property than her other relatives.
The Supreme Court of India further held that if a Hindu dies in a joint family without any will, then his property will be inherited by the daughters.
The court also noted that the legacy of Hindu widows and daughters is protected by the old Hindu custom as well as by many laws.

A new variant of the coronavirus Omicron has begun to hit the tourism business in Cox's Bazar. The number of tourists is decreasing. Rooms are being booked less than usual in hotels, motels and guest houses. Again, many people are canceling their bookings due to the corona attack. There are no crowds at the spots including beaches, restaurants and shops selling various products related to tourism.
Concerned people said that people are terrified because of Omicron. There is a lot of fear. There has also been a drop in the number of tourists fearing an increase in corona infections and the announcement of a lockdown at any moment.
During the tourist season, there is always a minimum of 50% room bookings, except for the usual weekends. But new corona infections have increased day by day due to which it has come down to 20%. Again 70-80% of room bookings are on weekends. Even in that case, 40% of the rooms have been booked. As a result, the new tourism business is in jeopardy.
there is always a minimum of 50% room bookings, except for the usual weekends.
Muhammad Amin, managing director of Amin International, said the hotel has a total of 35 rooms. There are guests in only 10 rooms. There were several room bookings on the occasion of the weekly holiday Friday. But due to Corona most room bookings have been canceled on the pretext of Corona infection. Room booking is being given with a 50% discount even in full season. Even then 50% of rooms are not being booked.
Abdur Rahman, chairman of Hotel 'The Grand Sandy', said a group of 200 people had a two-day booking for the weekend. Suddenly they canceled the booking. Most days except Fridays and Saturdays there are no bookings.
He added that the general public is worried about when the government will announce a lock down again. Because of this many people do not dare to come.
Concerned people said that people are terrified because of Omicron.
The same is true of expensive restaurants and hotels. Although many delicious food items are ready, many food items are being wasted due to the decrease in the number of food-loving tourists. Even the announcement of a new lockdown is actually a big loss panic among them.
Ashraful Islam Rakib, chairman of Kutumbari Restaurant, said his company had opened a branch of Kutumbari Restaurant just 21 days ago. Having invested crores of rupees, he is now spending his days in fear. Sales have plummeted since the Corona panic, especially as tourists rely on it. However, it was fairly crowded as on Friday.
Abul Kashem Sikder, general secretary of the Hotel and Motel Owners' Association, said that the number of tourists has decreased not only because of Corona but also due to various reasons. Besides Corona, the school was open for so long, the school tour was also closed. Most of the people come on family tours. As such, if any member of the family falls ill, they do not come again.
He added that there was a panic among the people. Especially those who have fought death in the past due to corona do not want to come in fear.
He also said that 40% of the total room bookings were on Friday at the hotel motel.
Don't grow up every day. Omicron has been newly added. Additional District Magistrate Abu Sufian said that mobile courts are being conducted in different spots of the city including hotel and motel zones with 3-4 teams every day to enforce the government ban including ensuring the wearing of masks.
He said that the campaign is continuing in the hotels as to whether the hygiene announced by the government as a regular campaign is being followed properly. If there is any inconsistency in any matter, fines are also being imposed.
Tourists in particular are being discouraged from walking on the beach without masks. Besides, masks are being distributed to increase awareness. The additional district magistrate also informed that regular miking is being done to ensure that the mask is worn.

We are monitoring the situation. If the rate of coronavirus infection decreases, the educational institution will be reopened, said Dipu Moni, the Minister of Education. But now the online class activities will continue, she said.
The education minister told reporters after a meeting of the National Curriculum and Textbook Board in the capital on Friday (January 21).
She said the government has decided to close the educational institution due to the sudden increase in the number of children. The matter was discussed with the health minister in the morning. Later, the educational institution was closed as per the instructions of the Prime Minister.
The instruction to close the school that we have received will be sent to the Ministry of Primary and Mass Education. After that, the ministry will take action regarding the younger students, said the education minister.
Addressing the students of the residential halls of the university, she said that in the universities where there are residential halls, the students will move according to the hygienic rules. If the situation improves, they will return to class. However, teachers can join the administrative work.

It has been a great honor and pleasure for me to serve as the US Ambassador to Bangladesh for the last three years. I am leaving with wonderful memories and a grateful heart.
Early Robert Miller, the outgoing US ambassador of the United States, left Dhaka on Friday (January 21) said in a tweet.
According to sources, Miller has already completed all his scheduled official meetings. However, the new variant of corona Omicron infection was at risk and for various reasons, Miller could not meet President Abdul Hamid and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
Miller joined as US Ambassador to Bangladesh on November 18, 2018.

Next-gen Ford Focus to get global design
Viknesh Vijayenthiran April 15, 2008 Comment Now!
In Europe the Ford Focus is an affordable, well-engineered and stylish small car available in hatch, sedan, wagon and convertible bodystyles. It also features latest technologies such as a Powershift dual-clutch transmission, flex-fuel engines, a folding hard top roof (cabrio models only), and a range of efficient diesel and petrol engines. Its American counterpart on the other hand has been around since the late '90s and misses out on most of the options available in Europe.
For the next-gen model due in late 2010 Ford will develop just one Focus model in line with its new global product development strategy. The cars will have unique styling and specifications to suit major markets but 87% of parts will be common, Ford product chief Derrick Kuzak revealed to Automotive News.
By streamlining its engineering process Ford will be able to cut costs and bring the car to market faster. The new model is expected to based on the current C1 platform, which is used in cars like the Volvo C30, and will likely be manufactured in Europe, North America and Australia.
Ford has already revealed its first model developed under its global product strategy, the new Fiesta compact, which has been showcased in three different variations already.

Bid Notification
15JPSS18R00000001
Two Constitution Square 145 N Street, N.E. Suite 8E.300 Washington, District of Columbia 20530 United States
From: Federal Government(Federal)
Track Changes The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) intends to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for transcription services contract(s) to support DOJ's Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR). The primary mission of the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) is to adjudicate immigration cases by fairly, expeditiously, and uniformly interpreting and administering the Nation's immigration laws. Under delegated authority from the Attorney General, EOIR conducts immigration court proceedings, appellate reviews, and administrative hearings. Contractor personnel will furnish administrative, logistical, professional, and technical labor, supplies, equipment, facilities, and materials necessary to provide, in both hard copy and electronic format, typed transcripts of Government-owned recordings of immigration hearings on an as-ordered basis. The length of each immigration hearing ranges from one hour to an entire day or more. The hearings are primarily recorded on EOIR's digital audio recording system and, when necessary, on cassette tapes using analog recording equipment, and the tape becomes part of the official Record of Proceeding. The average length of a transcript resulting from one immigration hearing is approximately one hundred pages. The average hearing is 2.6 hours in length; some may be considerably longer. The major source of transcription services for EOIR is under the existing contracts, DJJ13-C-2424 with Deposition Services, DJJ13-C-2425 with Free State Reporting, and DJJ13-C-2426 with National Capitol Contracting. These indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contracts were awarded on April 1, 2013 and will expire on March 31, 2018. All three contracts are identical in scope. A single order is issued against each contract on an annual basis for anticipated services during the associated contract period.
During the last fiscal year, the volume of transcript requests have increased by 21%. Over half of the Board of Immigration Appeals caseload consists of detained cases which require expeditious handling. Most of the transcription requests require a 5-day or 20-day turn-around time. To ensure that the Contractor is capable of meeting this business demand, the Contractor shall have the capability of transcribing the following hours (weekly):
• 1000 hours of audio* per week with a 5-day turn-around time; and
• 500-750 hours of audio* per week with a 20-day turn-around time
*most audio contains simultaneous interpretation
The Government contemplates award of up to five (5) indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contracts for this requirement. The Government anticipates setting aside each awarded contract for a small business concern. The Government anticipates a period of performance of 12 months with four (4) 12-month options. The request for proposals (i.e. 5JPSS18R00000001) is anticipated to be available on or about December 29, 2017. Due date for receipt of proposals will be approximately 30 days after issuance of the solicitation.
All information regarding this procurement, including the solicitation document and amendments, will only be made available electronically on the Federal Business Opportunities website, http://www.fedbizopps.gov. Interested parties should periodically check this website for information regarding this acquisition.
Dec 18, 2017 2:58 pm The purpose of this amendment is to issue the request for proposals. Any questions concerning the request for proposals must be received by Friday, December 29, 2017 at 10:00am ET. Proposals must be received by Wednesday, January 17, 2018 at 10:00 am ET to be considered for award.

Die Europäische Mannschaftsmeisterschaft im Schach ist ein Schach-Wettkampf für Nationalmannschaften der Staaten Europas.

Austragung
Die Europameisterschaft der Männer ("offene" Europameisterschaft, da in den Mannschaften auch Frauen eingesetzt werden können) fand zunächst in einem Wettkampfsystem aus dezentralen Vorrunden und einer zentralen Endrunde statt. Für die Endrunde waren 1957 vier, 1961 und 1965 je sechs Mannschaften qualifiziert, die je 2× gegeneinander spielten (doppeltes Rundensystem). Seit 1970 wurden die Finalturniere mit acht Mannschaften im einfachen Rundensystem ausgetragen. Mit der Europameisterschaft 1989 wurde auf ein neunrundiges Schweizer System umgestellt. Die Zahl der teilnehmenden Teams liegt in den letzten Jahrzehnten konstant bei etwa 40. Die Mannschaftsstärke pro Wettkampf verringerte sich von zehn Brettern (bis 1970) sukzessive über acht und sechs auf die seit 1992 übliche Austragung an vier Brettern.

Das Turnier der Damen wird seit Beginn 1992 jeweils als neunrundiges Turnier im Schweizer System gespielt. Die Mannschaftsstärke betrug bis 2003 nur zwei Bretter, seither wird an vier Brettern gespielt. Seit dieser Vergrößerung der Mannschaften umfasst das Teilnehmerfeld jeweils etwa 30 Teams.
