Much of the world today is on tenterhooks awaiting the outcome of the US-North Korea Summit on denuclearization of North Korea. Both US President Trump and his North Korean counterpart Kim Jong-un are idiosyncratic, whimsical and conceited and it will be interesting, if not hilarious, to watch (pardon my hypocrisy) how they will tango, without stepping on each other and hurting their big toes, bigger egos and, putting at risk the once-in-a-lifetime chance of peace on the Korean Peninsula.
History is replete with instances of attempts and failures to achieve Nuclear Disarmament. When the US, Russia and other states realized during the Cold War, of the extreme dangers inherent in nuclear weaponry, a series of disarmament and non-proliferation treaties were agreed upon after years of negotiations. Among the more notable are the NPT (Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty) of 1968, with its three main pillars: nonproliferation, disarmament, and the right to peacefully use nuclear technology, SALT I (1972), SALT II (1979), START I (1991), START II (1993) and New START Treaty (2012).
In 1961, the UN General Assembly adopted a landmark Resolution 1653 which stated that use of nuclear weaponry "would exceed the scope of war and cause indiscriminate suffering and destruction to mankind and civilization and, as such, is contrary to the rules of international law and to the laws of humanity". In 1998, the UN Office for Disarmament Affairs (UNODA) was set up with the goal to promote nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction including chemical and biological weapons, land mines and small arms. Further, a wide array of non-governmental organizations continue to hold rallies, or lead protest movements in favor of a nuclear weapons-free world. To date, with the exception of South Africa, none of the nuclear states have agreed to give up their nuclear arsenals, arguing in favor of a nuclear deterrence to war.
So what should one expect from the upcoming US/North Korea summit? In my judgement, below-listed are the six salient points. That said, whatever deals are struck, they must be clearly demarcated, so as to leave no room for aberration.
First, the North Koreans will have their strategic priorities in negotiations clearly mapped out in advance. One doubts the Trump Administration will be in a similar consensus mode, given the penchant of several hawks not to compromise but to forcefully push for "our way or the highway". This must not happen.
Second, the US, the world's greatest democracy, must raise the subject of Human Rights in North Korea and of those languishing in its labor camps. Past US Administrations have brought the subject up to no avail. North Korea will not brook any interference in their internal affairs, but the point must be made strongly.
Third, on the main issue of complete denuclearization by North Korea, the latter will agree tentatively, and in principle, offering a time table, hoping to buy time. In addition, North Korea will ask for the immediate lifting of all economic and other sanctions imposed by various states. The North Koreans are well aware of the propensity of the Trump Administration to walk out of existing international pacts or to insist on re-designing them to suit its own agenda. They are also well aware of the upcoming required certification of the Iran Nuclear Deal and the likelihood of it being scuttled. The North Koreans may also ask why the Nuclear Non-Proliferation (NPT) and other such treaties have not been forced into compliance by nuclear states, both declared and undeclared.
Fourth, the North Koreans may be willing to sign a Peace Treaty with the South Koreans provided the South stops conducting naval exercises with the US and commits to no longer allowing US military bases on its soil.
Fifth, Japan clearly has a stake, geographically and strategically, in the Summit discussions and will continue to press for total Denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.
Sixth, China will stay in the middle course, a sensible broker of sorts, unwilling to risk the inevitable tide of millions of North Korean refugees on its soil, if the Summit fails and war breaks out.
Jim Falk, in his book "Global Fusion, the Battle over Nuclear Power" writes: For the anti-nuclear weapons movement, the atomic bomb "encapsulated the very worst direction in which the society was moving". It's a point worthy of reflection by the power brokers of the upcoming Summit!


Biodiversity is a key component regulating the structure and function of planktonic ecosystems and has important ramifications for the biogeochemical footprint of phytoplankton communities. Here, we explore ideas regarding the factors that generate and maintain plankton species diversity. Recently developed methods to investigate the genetics and behavior of planktonic organisms in the laboratory and in situ have provided insights into plankton ecology and evolution, including phylogeny as well as organism interactions with the biotic and abiotic environment. We suggest that the inclusion of an organismal focus that incorporates intra-specific variation could reveal factors driving marine biodiversity, strengthen the theoretical underpinnings of plankton ecology, and enhance our understanding of the population dynamics of microbes. Identification of these structuring mechanisms is not only scientifically challenging but also has significant implications for how we understand the functioning of planktonic ecosystems and our ability to predict how these ecosystems may respond to changing climate conditions.
Since the New York Times featured our wedding announcement, there is little information that is publicly inaccessible about our relationship. Thankfully, the intricate details of our intersecting science interests were of minor interest to the NYT fact checker, so a few things are left to be told. We both had our first immersion in oceanography on a long cruise to the southern ocean polar frontal zone as part of the Southern Ocean JGOFS effort, led by mentor Professor V. Smetacek. During the cruise, a look through the microscope at the phytoplankton community composition gave a more accurate account of location and water mass than most other metrics measured on the cruise. This left us both with a lasting impression of the importance of an organismal perspective and a deep desire to understand the factors driving these distributions. As any good couple, we subsequently took vastly different approaches to pursue our scientific interests. One of us uses molecular tools to investigate the evolution, speciation, and biogeochemical function of phytoplankton and feeding ecology of zooplankton, while the other has focused on linking microscopic predator-prey behaviors with their population-level ramifications of plankton production, food web structure, and patchiness. With the help of supportive mentors, we have been fortunate to spend long stretches of our career in the same place, first at the Alfred Wegener Institute as technician and M.Sc. student, then as graduate students at the University of Washington, and finally as faculty members at the Graduate School of Oceanography, University of Rhode Island. Although we do not try to work together formally, sometimes it is unavoidable and we have coauthored a few papers. Nonetheless, our most productive and joyful collaboration matured in December 2013 when our daughter was born.

Q: JAVA InputStream.toString() back to InputStream I am playing with an an old and abandoned JAVA renderer called Sunflow.
In some of its classes one of methods saves image InputStream as string (InputStream.toString()).
Now I wonder: is there a way how to convert back that saved InputStream.toString() value to InputStream?

A: No, InputStream does not override toString(), it uses the existing base implementation from Object, which returns:
getClass().getName() + "@" + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())

The result of this method call is something like: InputStream@<hex_hash_code>, and you can not recover the original InputStream from this String.

A: You can do this:
InputStream stream = new ByteArrayInputStream(mystr.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8));

Assuming the string is UTF-8 encoded.

Q: How to break a JSON response into smaller JSON part of a particular batch size I have a small issue ... I am exposing a REST service which fetch a list of data in JSON format..
The following is my flow :-
<flow name="MainService" doc:name="MainService">
 <http:inbound-endpoint exchange-pattern="request-response" host="localhost" port="8082" doc:name="HTTP"/>
 <jersey:resources doc:name="REST">

Now, Since this response is long and huge, I want to split this response in smaller part in a batch of 5 like :-
 {
               "response": "The Data retrieved from the Database",
               "id": 447,
               "name": "test",
               "age": 561,
               "designation": "Senior Software Engineer"
           },
           {
               "response": "The Data retrieved from the Database",
               "id": 442,
               "name": "test2",
               "age": 561,
               "designation": "Senior Software Engineer"
           },
           {
               "response": "The Data retrieved from the Database",
               "id": 133,
               "name": "fff",
               "age": 561,
               "designation": "Senior Software Engineer"
           },
           {
               "response": "The Data retrieved from the Database",
               "id": 4,
               "name": "test3",
               "age": 561,
               "designation": "Senior Software Engineer"
           },
           {
               "response": "The Data retrieved from the Database",
               "id": 3,
               "name": "fff",
               "age": 561,
               "designation": "Senior Software Engineer"
           }

So, I followed the following :-  Mule - split a big JSON list into multiple smaller JSON lists
and after the jersey component in my flow I put the following :-
 <json:json-to-object-transformer returnClass="java.util.Map"/>
  <foreach batchSize="5">
  <json:object-to-json-transformer/>
   <logger message="ResponseLogdadasd :- #[message.payload]" level="INFO" doc:name="ResponseLogger"/>
</foreach>

Am I doing right ?? Is this the way will I can get to break the response into a smaller part in a batch size of 5 ?? Your suggestion please

A: As indicated in the link you mention, the payload has to be a collection. The class java.util.Map is not a collection.

A: Based on the JSON from your question, the code
<json:json-to-object-transformer returnClass="java.util.Map"/>

generates a map with one key "retrieveAllData" (which will contain the collection that you are looking for).
Try the following:

Jon Nop said the restaurant is family run and that one of the gunmen told his four kids he would kill their daddy before forcing him to open the cash register and a safe at gunpoint
'I'm going to kill your daddy': 2 gunmen threaten family during restaurant robbery
Zachary Hansen, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Clayton County police are searching for two men who robbed a restaurant at gunpoint while threatening to kill the owner in front of his children.
John Nop told Channel 2 Action News that he opened Boston Fish Supreme in Forest Park a few months ago, and he said he makes an effort to get his kids involved in his business.
That led to a terrifying two minutes last Saturday.
"In the blink of an eye, I could have been shot dead," Nop told Channel 2.

A man, posing as a customer, waited for other patrons to leave before walking up to the counter, pulling out a gun and putting it in Nop's face, surveillance video shows. The video, obtained by Channel 2, shows four children were behind the counter at the time.
Another armed man then walked into the store as the first suspect went behind the counter, ordering everyone on the floor. The four kids got on the floor, while the two men ordered Nop to take them to the store's safe.
"(They) made me open the safe for them and had the gun to my face, and they said you got to open (the safe) for me," Nop said.

After emptying the safe, the thieves took Nop to the cash register. When he struggled and asked one of the kids to help, one of the suspects told the little girl something chilling.
"I'm going to kill your daddy," Nop told Channel 2, reciting what the man said to the girl. "It's horrible. They're traumatized."
After stealing the remaining cash, the men left the restaurant and joined a third man, who police believe may have been a getaway driver. No other information was provided on the suspects.
"I want these guys caught 'cause it's frightening to live in fear since it happened," Nop said.

Winners And Losers From Japanese Grand Prix Qualifying
Thomas Maher Saturday 8th October 2022 1:00 PM
Qualifying at the Japanese Grand Prix saw three drivers within a tenth for the second weekend in a row as Max Verstappen claimed pole position.
The reigning World Champion has given himself the best possible opportunity to wrap up his second title on Sunday having beaten Ferrari's Charles Leclerc to pole position by just 0.01sec.
The scene is set for a great scrap between 2022's star performers as the Monegasque does his utmost to keep his near-extinguished championship hopes alive.
Both will be supported by their team-mates behind as Ferrari's Carlos Sainz claimed third position ahead of Red Bull's Sergio Perez.
Ahead of an enthralling Japanese Grand Prix, here are our winners and losers from a tense qualifying day at Suzuka.
After his chaotic Singapore Grand Prix weekend, qualifying went almost perfectly smoothly for Red Bull and Verstappen this time around.
Verstappen easily made it through Q1 and Q2 before putting in a lap that ended up just being good enough for pole position – claiming top spot by just 0.01sec – the 18th time the Dutch driver has taken pole position.
Verstappen can win his second World Championship on Sunday with victory plus the fastest-lap point enough to ensure he retains his title. Pole position means he has taken a big step towards achieving that, but a big battle awaits given the proximity of the two Ferraris.
However, it was not a completely perfect session for Verstappen, who was somewhat fortunate to escape a possible grid penalty as he had another incident with Lando Norris – the British driver slowly becoming his biggest obstacle in wrapping up this title after the Dutchman was stymied by the McLaren driver's defence in Singapore last weekend.
Had it not been for Norris' quick reaction to turn onto the grass and avoid Verstappen, the Red Bull driver could have been facing starting the race from the very back.
Charles Leclerc/Ferrari
Given Suzuka's characteristics are similar to Silverstone and Spa-Francorchamps, Ferrari will be pleased their qualifying performance was far closer to what happened at the British Grand Prix during the summer than the drubbing they endured in Belgium.
With both Leclerc and Sainz slotting in less than half a tenth behind Verstappen, the Scuderia have the luxury of being able to attack Verstappen with a two-pronged strategic approach – assuming they can keep Perez behind.
While it is seemingly inevitable Verstappen will wrap up the title at this race or the next, Leclerc is doing his utmost to keep the title fight alive and is driving as well as he has at any point so far this season – perhaps even better, now he has reached the point of resignation regarding a title loss.
But it is in the car's performance at the aerodynamically-demanding Suzuka that Ferrari should take pleasure. With Mercedes apparently not in the fight at a track that demands a strong car, the F1-75 looks to be a clear step ahead – a fact their Sporting Director Laurent Mekies pointed out after qualifying.
"It's a very important performance for us," he said.
"It's such a special track, with high-speed corners – an old-style track which says a lot about the car's performance. To have both drivers fighting for pole was very important for everyone at Maranello and here at the track."
Esteban Ocon/Alpine
After their disastrous Singapore Grand Prix, Alpine regained the high ground in their fight for fourth with McLaren by qualifying in fifth and seventh, Esteban Ocon coming out on top in his duel with Fernando Alonso.
There are not many sessions left for this particular duo, so it is important for Ocon to end the season on a high note and prove to Alpine that losing the two-time former World Champion will not be disastrous for their future prospects.
At a track that rewards cars with strong downforce packages and engines, it is also encouraging for Alpine that the A522 had the measure of the Mercedes W13 in qualifying spec – even if they reckon they will lose that particular fight on race day.
"I'm delighted with today and how the weekend has unfolded so far," said Ocon, having slotted in behind the Red Bulls and Ferraris and two tenths clear of Alonso.
"Fifth place is a great result for us, just behind the Red Bulls and the Ferraris. After the disappointment of last weekend, it is very satisfying to bounce back in this manner and show our potential. The upgrades are working well and our car suits this circuit, so it's a job well done from everyone trackside and at both factories."
It says a lot about Suzuka that the qualifying session in Japan made Sebastian Vettel, a man who increasingly appears to have had his fill of Formula 1, almost reach the point of regretting his decision to leave the sport behind.
Representing the Aston Martin challenge after Lance Stroll had been knocked out in Q1, Vettel looked to find some of the spark that made him such a formidable qualifier in his earlier days, making it through to the final part of qualifying in a car that vied for the position of slowest on the grid back at the British Grand Prix – highlighting the progress the team have made.
"It's so much more fun around here than at the other circuits!" the four-time former World Champion said after the session.
"The cars and the speeds are great, but at this place you feel alive. I've enjoyed it so much over the years and I had a wonderful day today. We will see what we can do tomorrow but I'm just very happy about today.
"At the same time, I'm a bit sad – because it's the last time I will ever tackle this track in qualifying trim. Laps like these make me feel sad about leaving F1."
Statements like these show it is not the driving element of Formula 1 that Vettel has tired of. With his family in tow at Suzuka this weekend, it shows the German driver would probably be quite content to keep racing in the sport if there were fewer races and if the calendar had more traditional circuits to bring out the whooping Seb that has vanished in recent years.
Sans Toto Wolff this weekend, it appears the Austrian has picked a good grand prix to miss as Mercedes look to have shown up with the reluctant version of the W13 this time around.
While competitive in wet conditions on Friday (albeit with using more intermediate tyres than their immediate rivals), Mercedes fell to almost a second away in qualifying spec – putting them just on a par with the two Alpine drivers.
Lewis Hamilton won the intra-Mercedes battle to take sixth spot with George Russell in eighth, and the seven-time former World Champion admitted the W13 is simply not up to the task at Suzuka.
"We knew coming to this circuit we wouldn't be competing for the front row or the win – Red Bull and Ferrari are in a different league here and we have some fundamental limitations with our car," he said after qualifying, a sentiment echoed by Andrew Shovlin.
"We are losing a lot of time on the straights, but the corners are not especially strong either," said Shovlin.
"By qualifying the balance was in a reasonable place but the lap time just wasn't coming."
With Ferrari vying with Red Bull on a level pegging for fastest car at Suzuka, Mercedes need a miracle to keep their hopes of second place in the championship alive.
McLaren were fortunate to finish qualifying with two intact cars thanks to Lando Norris' quick reaction time when Max Verstappen got squirrelly in front of him going through 130R.
But there was little else for McLaren to celebrate as Daniel Ricciardo was knocked out in Q2 before Norris could only manage a comparatively lowly 10th on the grid.
"Tricky qualifying, probably the most difficult we've had this year," Norris said after the session.
"I think there was a little bit more to find, but probably only one or two more positions on the grid."
McLaren's slender four-point lead over Alpine could be difficult to maintain after this weekend, provided the Alpines are reliable, as the MCL36 simply has not enjoyed the high-speed sweeps of Suzuka so far.
"We are not entirely satisfied with P10 and P11 in qualifying," said team principal Andreas Seidl.
"Maximising everything would likely have gained us another place or two. At the same time, we have to acknowledge our primary competitors in the Constructors' Championship have, this weekend, been better so far. But the points get distributed tomorrow and that's a whole new day."
Yuki Tsunoda might be the main attraction for the partisan Japanese audience, but their support could not overcome the brake issues which hampered both the home hero and his team-mate Pierre Gasly.
Indeed, Gasly's vocal radio messages criticising the timing of his runs and his issues were indicative of a driver who no longer really minds voicing his frustrations – given he is out of the door to join Alpine in just a few weeks' time.
Gasly was knocked out in Q1, with Tsunoda following suit in Q2 due to an issue related to the brake material fitted to their AT03s.
Guillaume Dezoteux, head of vehicle performance at AlphaTauri, revealed poor balance in FP3 meant the team took "bigger risks than usual" in making set-up changes for qualifying – changes which backfired due to the brake problems.
"We replaced the front left brake disc ahead of qualy," Gasly explained after qualifying 18th.
"Then on the out-lap, we were behind a lot of cars which meant we couldn't get enough temperature into the brakes. Every time I touched them I had front locking, which was really tricky, and meant our last attempt went to waste."
At least Gasly can take solace in seeing the Alpines vying with Mercedes up near the front…

"Don't reinvent the wheel" is a common refrain in business. But quarter after quarter, year after year, a lot of smart, busy finance people spend hours and hours carefully crafting wheel after wheel, in order to keep their business processes rolling smoothly down the road. The "wheels" we're talking about in this case are planning models. These are the models that finance people use to perform tasks that are common to almost any large organization, such as expense planning and forecasting, and profitability analysis.
Models are typically built in spreadsheets, a process that involves a lot of manual cutting and pasting, with more time often devoted to checking and validating data than to actually performing the analysis. Not a good use of time for highly trained professionals. Fortunately, our friends at IBM have developed a way to streamline the process and let finance people take advantage of all the wheel inventing that has gone before.
If you're not familiar with IBM Planning Analytics, you should know that it's a planning, budgeting and forecasting solution built on the powerful, in-memory OLAP engine of IBM TM1®, which is in use by thousands of organizations around the world. IBM Planning Analytics is used for multidimensional modeling, and it also includes predictive capabilities borrowed from the IBM Watson Analytics app.
You can experience the IBM Planning Analytics solution right now—for free—with a quick click on the IBM Planning Analytics Trial link in the above web page.For the Trial, IBM created a series of Quick Start Templates (Figure 2). These Templates automate many of the manual steps in the planning process, saving much time and effort, and delivering plans and models that are more timely and more accurate.
You'll have the option of trying out three different Quick Start Templates: Expense Planning, Margin Planning, and Profitability Analysis. The Quick Start Templates are pre-configured models that incorporate the collective best-practice knowledge of IBM planning experts, business partners and leading IBM customers.
Gather input directly from managers on the front lines of the business, who can apply their detailed knowledge to build a more accurate plan.
By removing the error-prone, manual steps that are inherent in spreadsheet-based processes, Quick Start Templates enable finance teams to focus on spotting opportunities for improvement and performing the kind of analysis that adds real value.
Figure 4: Pre-configured Quick Start Templates can display results in vivid charts, graphs and tables, so information is easier to share and understand.
In Finance we are all about the numbers. The Planning Analytics Trial offers us a free opportunity to explore the capabilities of one of business's leading financial performance management tools.

Does he sing? Yes. Does he rap? Yes. Does he do both on the same track? Absolutely! Matthew Bracey has been involved with music since he was very young, but he hasn't always done the type of music God wanted him to. He used to love secular music and had dreams of pursuing it as a career. However, God's plans for Matthew were much different than his own.
By my musical involvment in school, Matthew met friends who were in total devotion to Christ. Their passion rubbed off on him, and he discovered a greater spiritual life than he had ever known. Because of their influence, Matthew decided to take his first shot at full-time ministry with a singing group known as Sevyn. The group would later be known as Simple Faith.
During his tenure in Sevyn, his zeal for the Lord greatly increased. But there were many other musical oppertunities available to me him prevented him from giving 100% to the group. He wanted to be obidient to the Lord, but there were still parts of him that he had reserved to himself. In early 2004 Matthew and the group parted ways. It was at this point that the Lord went deeper into His personal work on Matthew Bracey.
Soon after his departure from Sevyn, Matthew was exposed to the ministry of Elder G. Craig Lewis. His ministry played an intricate role in removing secular music from his life completely. Thus, allowing Matthew to give his all to the Lord and letting Him use the gift He gave him as He desired. On July 4, 2004, Matthew re-dedicated his life to Christ and was re-baptized at the New Jerusalem Baptist Church in Cincinnati.
From there, the Lord opened many doors for Matthew in Christian music. That same year he was featured on "The Message Radio Show Mix LP, Lesun's album "God Fearing Rap Music" and the T.H.I.S. Click Records mixtape "Serious Series Vol. 2". He was also afforded the oppertunity to start his own independent record label, "Ain't Yo Average Music."
Before the start of 2005 Matthew Bracey signed a one-album deal with T.H.I.S. Click Records, which is headed by National Recording Artist, k-Drama. 2005 would bring further blessings as Matthew became the host of a Cincinnati Radio Show known as "Morning Inspiration". He was also named the Ast. Gospel Director of WCIN 1480am. Many more musical features would follow. Including an appearance on k-Drama's album "14 2 Life: Illustrations Of Self" and "The Message Vol. 2: More Than A Radio Show, Mix LP."
2006 was been great as well. Matthew was featured on "Serious Series Vol. 3", k-Drama & MC Till's album, "Black Guy Meets White Man", B.I.G.S.T.E.V.E.'s album "Serve The Lord", DeeJay Roberts album, "Prodigy Of Promise", and he Executive Produced the first project from Ain't Yo Average Music by Deacon D.A.S., "Deaconstruction: Destroy & Rebuild".
Much more is on tap for Matthew Bracey, including the release of his debut album "...As Recorded By Matthew" on Ain't Yo Average Music/T.H.I.S. Click Records. We pray that you are touched by his ministry and that Jesus has way in your life. Stay in the Bible, and keep it Christ!

WASHINGTON — During her daily briefing on Tuesday, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders suggested that playing golf helped President Trump have "one of the most successful first years in office" in 2017.
Trump celebrated the new year with a game of golf at his course in Florida on Monday. Since taking office last Jan. 20, Trump has visited golf courses 91 times and played on the majority of those trips. Sean Spicer, Sanders's predecessor, told reporters in March that Trump used his time on the golf course productively, implying a contrast to former President Obama.
Yahoo News asked Sanders to identify the biggest thing the president accomplished for the American people while golfing in 2017.
"I think it would certainly be developing deeper and better relationships with members of Congress in which those relationships have helped push forward the president's agenda, specifically when it comes to helping get the tax reform and tax cuts passed. A lot of that, I think, and the success of that came from the strong relationships that the president has," Sanders said.
Sanders emphasized the golf games Trump has played with members of the Senate.
"He's played golf with a number of senators and used that time certainly to accomplish that," she said.
On the campaign trail in 2016, Trump repeatedly promised he would be too busy to play golf if he was elected.
"I'm going to be working for you. I'm not going to have time to go play golf," Trump said at an event in August 2016.
If Trump serves two terms and keeps up his pace of golfing, he will have played more than 700 rounds by 2025, about twice as many as Obama did during his eight years in the White House.
As president, Trump has golfed with Abe and members of Congress, including Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. Trump's partners for presidential golf games have also included pros like Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy.
There is no definitive list of all of Trump's golf partners or an exact count of how many times he's hit the links as president because the White House does not release this information. The White House often repeatedly declines to comment on what Trump is doing when he visits his courses. This silence has even extended to instances when he was photographed on the links by media outlets or other golfers. Last Wednesday, a truck blocked reporters as they attempted to film Trump from public property adjacent to his Florida course. The website TrumpGolfCount.com has created a detailed summary of Trump's golf outings and based its count of 76 "confirmed" games on photos of Trump on the course or instances when the White House said he was playing.
So, will the White House be more forthcoming about Trump's golf games in 2018? Yahoo News asked Sanders if they will provide confirmation when he plays and general readouts detailing his partners and the main topics of conversation.
"We provide information when it's pertinent to the day, and we'll continue to do that," said Sanders.
Women speaking out changed 2017. Will it be a permanent shift?

AN MEG INVESTIGATION OF WORD FREQUENCY.
Word frequency is one of the strongest predictors of processing speed on lexical decision tasks to visually presented words. Previous MEG studies assessing frequency effects have largely assessed the modulation of MEG components such as the M350 using very small stimuli sets which were often presented repeatedly. The repetition of low frequency words in particular increases their frequency during such experiments, and the M350 has since been linked to repetition effects and other word properties. This study aims to resolve such findings with a large set of high frequency and low frequency words presented singularly in a word/non word task using MEG.
12:15pm: HOW DO WE INTEGRATE INFORMATION OPTIMALLY FROM VARIOUS SENSES?
Humans have been seen to integrate sensory information optimally. There is growing evidence that we integrate the cues picked up from our senses and process these as probabilities. The probabilities constructed need to account for motor noise carefully if they are to lead to optimal movements. When information coming from one sense is ambiguous then our system has strategies to overcome this impacting on our performance. We will investigate how we manage to perform our daily movements accurately and effortlessly by examining simple pointing movements. We will also speculate as to when the whole notion of ?optimality? starts to fall apart.

For a good part of our nation's life, we were a society of dreamers. We were growing, maturing and learning how to bring forth the vision of our founders over 200 years ago. We were a work in progress, still developing. We earned our share of bloody noses and bruises to our pride through a number of mistakes as we continued to learn and grow and mature as a young country. We grew from being a small band of revolutionaries to a sovereign nation and then to the most powerful country on Earth in a very brief time relative to human history.
Somewhere during the last several decades, we stopped trying to become better. We stopped growing, except in population and economic terms. We stopped learning, developing and maturing. We stopped dreaming and we started protecting.
You see this happen with some teenagers who get a few things right and then start thinking they know it all. Pride turns to hubris and they become stubbornly entrenched in their arrogance. They think they are invincible, know-it-all and they project those images.
It seems to me we Americans have become stubbornly entrenched in our arrogance. We certainly haven't shown much interest in acquiring whatever wisdom might be offered by any other culture.
One of the great things about these United States is that our greatness came out of our constant reinventing ourselves, the "can do" society which emulated the curious youngster who is constantly inquiring. Like a sponge soaking up all the wisdom life had to offer, humility allowed us to learn from the mistakes we made as well as from the mistakes made by other cultures throughout history.
Our innate greatness has become part of our egoic self-image and we have slipped into a mode of protecting ourselves. Instead of inspiring the rest of the world we are now trying to dominate them, flaunting our power over others, rubbing our material success in their faces. Self-confidence has morphed into self-righteousness and most of the world is more afraid of us than they are of terrorists.
As John O'Neil points out is his book The Shadow of Success, hubris was the hero's "fatal flaw" in classical Greek drama. Successful leaders who fail to witness their shadow side are doomed to experience the "fatal flaw" at some point in their careers. This shadow side applies to nations as well as people and corporations. Historians claim nearly all great empires eventually failed because of this. You might say they committed national suicide!
Will America become "just another country" as some Europeans have been predicting? Will history report us as a once great society which eventually succumbed to the same "fatal flaw" that caused the Roman and British empires to implode?
I hope we can look deeply into our national arrogance, our know-it-all attitude, and begin dreaming, learning and growing again so we can return to becoming as great as we can be. I hope we once again become an inspiration to the world instead of a dominator. If we do not, we are risking our destiny and possibly even our survival.

A Cosmic Gatekeeper Divides Our Solar System in Two

The Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA) in Chile captured this picture of disks that formed around a young star about 450 light years away from our planet. Now, scientists are proposing that similar disks could have formed around our sun in the early solar system, creating the seeds for our planets.
(Image: © ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO), NSF)
The rocky planets closest to the sun are made up of very different materials than the gas giants in the outer solar system. That's because billions of years ago, our baby solar system was divided in two by a cosmic gatekeeper that prevented materials in the inner and outer regions from mixing.
It turns out that gatekeeper was a ring of dust and gas, according to a new study. The fence, or "Great Divide," a term coined by the authors, is now mostly empty space just inside Jupiter's orbit.
About two decades ago, chemists realized that the building blocks of planets — asteroid-size planetesimals or much smaller "pebbles" — had very different compositions depending on their distance from the sun. The pebbles that built up the outer, or "jovian," planets contained higher concentrations of organic molecules such as carbon and volatiles, or ices and gases, than those that built up the "terrestrial" planets closer to the sun, such as Earth and Mars.

But that was puzzling, because the theory predicted that pebbles from the outer solar system should have spiraled toward the inner solar system, because of what's called "gas drag," or the gravitational pull of the gas surrounding the young sun.
Before this study, scientists thought that "the gravitational wall that prevented mixing between the inner and outer disk of our nascent solar system was Jupiter," said senior author Stephen Mojzsis, a professor of geochemistry at the University of Colorado Boulder. The thinking was that Jupiter was so large, and its gravitational pull so strong, that it gobbled up small pebbles before they could reach the inner solar system.
To test this theory, Mojzsis and lead author Ramon Brasser, a researcher at the Earth-Life Science Institute at the Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan, created computer simulations that re-created the growth of the early solar system and the planets within it.
The simulation revealed that Jupiter could not grow fast enough to keep out all the carbon-rich pebbles from flowing into the inner solar system. In fact, most of the pebbles from the outer solar system passed straight on by the growing Jupiter.
"Jupiter is a very inefficient gatekeeper," Mojzsis told Live Science. "It's like a porous border [through which] immigrants from the outer solar system would have flooded the inner solar system." Jupiter by itself would have let through many pebbles, meaning that planets in the outer and inner solar system would have turned out to have similar compositions, he added.
Instead, the two scientists proposed another theory: early on in the solar system's history, there could have existed a ring, or multiple rings of alternating bands of high and low pressure gas and dust circling the sun. Those rings would have prevented pebbles from moving inward. They based their hypothesis on observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA) in Chile, which showed that about 2 in 5 young stars had these bull's-eye-like disks around them.
These high-pressure disks could have trapped dust and caused it to aggregate in distinct groups — one that would form Jupiter and Saturn and another Earth and Mars, for example. One of these sinks could have prevented outer pebbles from moving in toward the sun, creating the Great Divide, Mojzsis said. Even so, this ring wouldn't have been fully sealed. That would have allowed carbonaceous pebbles to flow into the inner solar system, creating the seeds for life on Earth, he added.
It's an "interesting idea," said Michiel Lambrechts, a postdoctoral fellow at the Lund Observatory in Sweden who was not a part of the study. "However, although the authors present work that illustrates the challenge of splitting the inner and outer solid reservoirs with a growing Jupiter, they do not make similarly detailed ring model."
This ring model needs to demonstrate how the pebbles are trapped and how the planets end up growing in such pebble traps, he added. Until then, "it remains hard to strongly favor this ring model over other potential explanations."
The findings were published today (Jan. 13) in the journal Nature Astronomy.

Electronic conveyancing, or e-Conveyancing, refers to settling a conveyancing transaction through an electronic lodgement network operator (ELNO). Currently, PEXA is the only ELNO used in Australia. E-Conveyancing replaces the need for settlements to occur on paper, making transactions more accessible for all parties.
Despite making the conveyancing process easier overall, e-Conveyancing creates additional steps for lawyers, conveyancers and clients. In this article, we will discuss these steps, as well as the benefits and concerns related to e-Conveyancing, in more detail.

This requirement reduces the risk of fraud. If you have verified your identity in the last two you years, you will not need to re-verify it. Instead, your lawyer or conveyancer will need to try and ensure that they are dealing with the same person.
What Are the Benefits of e-Conveyancing?
no time physically obtaining, signing, and registering paper documents.
This time-saving usually translates into you, the client, paying lower fees. Additionally, you will have fewer disbursements, as there will be no couriers, bank cheques or settlement agents to pay for.
have a greater range of lawyers or conveyancers to choose from – including those that work online or remotely.
Are There Any Concerns With e-Conveyancing?
Because e-Conveyancing happens in a virtual space, there are concerns about whether conducting an electronic settlement is as safe as a paper settlement.

Purple Films
Let's go to the Movies!
I know what you're thinking: If you must wait this long for an updated review it had better be a good one! Well I'm back and just in time to tell you that no…no it's not going to be a good review. Do you remember 2015's release Fifty Shades of Grey? Do you want to? Well tough cookies because today with my comeback review I give you the sequel, Fifty Shades Darker.
Returning to screen is Dakota Johnson (How to be Single, Black Mass, Goats) playing boring shy girl Anastasia Steel and sexy millionaire whose also a little boring Christian Grey played by Jamie Dornan (The 9th Life of Louis Drax, Flying Home, X Return). Now remember the first movie ended rather abruptly with the stinging breakup of Chris and Ana. In this sequel Chris shows up out of nowhere, of course, to beg Ana for another try. She agrees with one exception: No more rules. As in the contract that pretty made up the story for the first film is completely thrown out. Desperate as usual Chris accepts the terms.
Actually Ana did have more demands such as, this time we take things slow, and this time no more dark side stuff and no more secrets. But I disregard her other demands because she did too. Like ten minutes after she made them. As a matter of fact there was so much contradicting in the dialogue the movie eventually becomes flat-out confusing. 'Let's take it slow/Lets' have hot sex suddenly, You have to be more open with me/You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, No more kinky sex toys/Hey is this a kinky sex toy? Can we use it?' The story goes into their trials of becoming a more real couple…I think. Honestly there was a lot of hardcore sex scenes and it was distracting so I'm not exactly sure what was going on. What I am sure of is there was definitely more sex than the first movie. And there was a thing with an ex-flame of Chris's, Leila played by Bella Heathcote (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Not Fade Away, The Neon Demon) who stalks Ana and tries to kill her out of jealousy. There's also Ana's sex starved boss, Jack Hyde played by Eric Johnson (Everest *Series, Honeymoon with Mom, The Work and the Glory) who wants the goodies and Chris get's in a helicopter crash as well. Each problem get's solved relatively easily with a snap of Chris's powerful millionaire fingers so there's no reason to go into them further. It was like these were just little plotholes to fill in for all the mindless hot kinky sex we were getting without which we all might as well had rented a porno for the night.
I have to say I liked the first movie better. I feel like there was more emotion in it between the two main characters. I know with the first film I stated that underneath all the sex there was some romance. I did not feel that here at all. It was just a lot of mindless sex. Which is all fine and dandy especially with Valentines Day here but again: Porno's are cheaper. I imagine. Cause I don't rent porn. I don't.
Rated R for obvious reason's but I'll still name them, Strong erotic sexual intent, graphic nudity, and language.
Rotten Tomatoes has this sexy sequel at a 9% rotten. Eww…that's super rotten. Also way below the score off the first film, Fifty Shades of Grey which stood at a 26% rotten upon its release. Not that much better but still…it was better.
Fantastic date night movie which is the only thing this movie has got going for it. But honestly…there's just so much out there that's just better. Even for date night. I really have to say skip this. Do yourself the favor, ignore the frustration and confusion of this film and go to something else much better. But if you can't heed my warning and feel this is something you must see then at the very least do not bring your kids along for the ride! I kid you not, the row behind us there were little kids! Like…Seriously!?

Sharon Stone Gets Candid About Life After Her Stroke: 'People Treated Me in a Way That Was Brutally Unkind' July 19, 2019
Sharon Stone is back. And after famously serving as amfAR's Global Campaign Chair for 15 years, she's taken on a new role as advocate for brain-aging diseases that disproportionally affect women. Only one third of Alzheimers patients are men, for instance. And don't even get Stone started on strokes. "This is why I do it: […]

A good standard of cleanliness has been found at Western Isles Hospital's theatre department, according to a hospitals hygiene watchdog.
Inspectors from the Healthcare Environment Inspectorate (HEI) made an unannounced visit to the Stornoway hospital in October.
In a new report, they said they also found "positive leadership in infection prevention and control".
NHS Western Isles has welcomed the report.

Q: Why Redux reducer returns undefined after action click? I have a React-table in which I pass data from reducer's initialState like this:
const getData = () => {
    return {
        data: [{},{},{}]
    }
}

const initialState = getData();

const ipReducer = (state = initialState, action) => {

    if (action.type === 'CHANGE_IP_STATUS') {
        let newState = Object.assign({}, state);
        return { newState }

    } else {
        return state;
    }
}

export default ipReducer;

getData() will get data from server.
And I have switchers in table rows which can change the table data state. So I perform a redux action to change the state of a table. But when the action is done the table table gets undefined data.
This is my table:
<div>
     <ReactTable
         data={this.props.data}
         columns={columns}
     />
</div>

And this is my state to props map:
const mapStateToProps = (state) => ({
    data: state.ipTable.data,
})

From console.log() I see that my ipReducer returns valid data object. But why this object doesn't appears in my table component after change state perform?

A: Instead of returning return { newState } you should just return newState since its already an object created from updated state
const ipReducer = (state = initialState, action) => {

    if (action.type === 'CHANGE_IP_STATUS') {
        let newState = Object.assign({}, state);
        return newState;

    } else {
        return state;
    }
}

Bristol is a city that investors are discovering. Much of Bristol's economy is based on creative media and it even has its own currency (the Bristol pound).
It's a city lauded too, domestically and globally as it was named as the best city to live in Britain by The Sunday Times in two of the last five years and it even won the EU's European Green Capital Award in 2015.
The city is booming and property prices are on an upward trajectory, with two expanding universities and a growing population, we think investors would do well to look closely at Bristol.
So, what about property prices in Bristol?
Again it depends on your perspective.
Property sells just below the national average which has just edged past £300,000, but like any major town or city, there are property microclimates.
The majority of sales in Bristol during the last year were terraced properties, selling for an average price of £293,434. Flats sold for an average of £245,450, with semi-detached properties fetching £326,480.
Overall, sold prices in Bristol during the last year were 6% up on the previous year and 20% up on the 2015 level of £255,582.
The capital growth rate of 20% in under three years is impressive and the Sourced team believe Bristol can produce high yields in the future.
Clifton, many would argue, is the cream of Bristol's suburbs. Cliftonwood and Hotwells are part of the ward too and its streets are lined with majestic properties that command a premium. Period terraced properties there can command prices in excess of £750,000 with an average sold price 35% higher than the whole city.
There's two other areas though that should be on your investment radar: St Pauls which is unrecognisable from its notorious past in the 1980s and nearby Stokes Croft, which are more affordable than bijou Montpelier and the aforementioned Clifton.
These areas are attracting huge investment and regeneration with students choosing to remain in Bristol after graduating and London professionals moving in for the creative media industry (and lower house prices).
We are currently on the look out to expand our network into Bristol. Interested in working in the property industry? Get in touch today to find out more.
