Have you tried any of the plus sizes verses the top end of the standard selection at Voodoo Vixen yet? Neither had I and I've been wondering which is a better fit for my curves to months now. So with my favourite prints and styles in mind I've tested some amazing items in both the XXL and the 1XL. Each fit varies so knowing the fabric and the construction of each garment helps you get the perfect size.
Oh Dana! This amazing tropical cherry and pinapple print dress is a summer swing dream!! Featuring a soft tropical print of some seriously yummy looking summer snacks on a cream base.
The Dana dress has a wide v neckline which works perfectly for ample busts and the bow tie feature really makes the bustline pop. The darts and fabric can also accommodate both large and small chest sizes so no matter what your shape you'll look amazing.
Fitted at the waist with a full swing skirt and hidden pockets this frock has me wanting to jump on a plane and head to pool size bar over the pond. I'm wearing a 1XL and I actually find this dress roomy at the waist and a little at the bust.
I've been testing the 1XL in the curve section and the XXL in the standard section and I think I'm actually suited to the XXL fit wise. For this review I've actually tested both of these sizes in a variety of garments and the fit will be slightly different as the 1XL has a few more inches according to the size chart.
If you are looking for that perfect summer dress for festivals or just nights out the Veronica is a stunning little number full colour with a ruffle and the pom-pom trim. The bright primary colours of each pompom stand so boldly on the black fabric and the pleated bust fits the twins like a dream.
The defined waist was the first thing I noticed fit wise about this garment as it has a sheering panel at the back so it hug our curves and create a super small waistline. The size zip is always a brilliant features as I hate having a bulk zip at the back.
For this style I'm wearing the XXL and the fit is amazing. That sheering panel is what makes this dress a perfect fit and I have never felt more amazing than when I'm wearing the Veronica. This style is obviously a customer favourite as genius's at Voodoo Vixen have released a red with black pompom version and for all you romper lovers you can get both colour ways in adorable playsuits! All three are on my lust list. Pairing this with a red bolero makes this dress perfect for Spring!
From tropical prints and pom poms to retro vegas prints! The Pippa Vegas is a black based flared skirt with a iconic retro Las Vegas images print. The perfect piece to add to your collection of separates for day or night wear as it's so comfortable and cute.
With a hidden zipper and side pockets you have enough room to hide your phone and all your goodies. There is nothing better than extra deep pockets as I tend to get grumpy with handbag and love being able to fit all my essentials in my outfit.
I'm wearing this style in a 1XL and It's actually too big. The waist is very loose and the extra stretch means I find it looser than I'd like it to be. So next time I'll be sure to size down to the XXL.
For this look I wanted to go for a slight pattern clash so I paired the Pippa skirt with the Rose Cardigan. This combo turned out to be perfect and I just love how the smaller print of roses really compliments the more bold Vegas images all over the skirt. I wear this cardigan in a XXL and the fit rocks my socks off. I've paired this cardigan with pretty much every dress or top in my wardrobe as it's so very versatile.
Voodoo Vixen always rock an amazing knit and I can't wait to get my hands on even more next season. I've been lusting after their sweaters for a while now so fingers crossed I can review them and help other busy girls.
Many thanks to the always brilliant and fun Liz Flemming for snapping these with me on a morning when we work too early but got to meet and see lots of puppers and cats so it worked out well!
Oh my god, so many great outfits and so little town. I could wax poetic on every one of these outfit all day. I think my favorite is the first one, I just love how that kelly green just pops with your skin and hair color. It really makes a statement!


This is a delicious, refreshing summer treat, and with the optional addition of protein powder, you can also make this into a perfect post or pre-workout smoothie!
First, to make your fresh hemp milk, add 3 cups water to 1/3 cup organic hemp seeds. Add in four pitted dates for sweetness, and blend until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute to 90 seconds. Pour into a jar and store in refrigerator.
Spoon or pour out of the blender and into cups, top with fresh mint leaves and eat up! Tastes soooo good!

Amongst other things I saw in the Brussels Air Museum, Belgium, is the work actually made for what concerns the restorations on the Halberstadt of the museum and I discussed with a member of the museum on that subject.
The lozenges fabric of the wings are actually removed (the state of that fabric was really bad). But removing that fabric, the workers of the museum made an amazing discovery: the longerons were reinforced by bands of lozenge fabric; that were thus UNDER the fabric wings!
So you can actually see at Brussels some bands of lozenge that are original ones, and that have never seen the daylight since 1917 or 1918!!!


The law comes after a federal research report found that six of 13 federal courts of appeals and one-fourth of federal district courts now have some sort of rule requiring transparency. The federal judiciary's Advisory Committee on Rules of Civil Procedure, for which the report was created, is also considering a federal rule on litigation funding. Now that Wisconsin became the first state to take action, Faulk says other states will soon take up similar legislation.

Words like "devastating" have been used to describe the Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities because they represent bugs in chip hardware, rather than code, and the bugs have inadvertently been built into chips since sometime in the 1990s. That's a lot of attack surface out there.
As IoT becomes an ever larger (though not always visible) part of our daily lives, the need for securing this global infrastructure grows profoundly. We must secure the IoT. And, it is time to take a fresh look at how we protect the IoT, as well as the rest of the global cyber infrastructure. We need to go beyond standard mechanisms to deepen security through use of trust, reputation, and provenance. Fortunately, blockchain technology is a powerful tool in achieving this fresh approach.
In true blockchain fashion, this proof of provenance would be decentralized through incentivized device owners and service providers. This approach pushes us closer to ensuring device identity, which is central to securing the IoT.
Hardjono, writing with Ned Smith, Principal IoT Security Architect at Intel, in their paper "Cloud-Based Commissioning of Constrained Devices using Permissioned Blockchains" write of building on the Enhanced Privacy ID (EPID) scheme of zero-knowledge proofs and using the blockchain to anonymously register device commissioning and decommissioning.
I'm also a longtime fan of John Henry Clippinger, Research Scientist, MIT Media Lab Human Dynamics Group, and co-founder of ID3 (Institute for Institutional Innovation & Data Driven Design), who is a pioneer in applying the concepts of reputation rating systems to the Internet.
In his white paper "A New Kind of Social Ordering: Self-Sovereignty, Autonomous Trust and P2P Parity," Clippinger writes about the emergence of cooperation and trusted identities. These elements could also provide a fresh approach to IoT security.
The challenges of protecting the IoT require fresh thinking.

Q: segmentation fault on calling a function for swapping some characters in a string    #include <stdio.h>
void swapchars(int Q,char* L){
     char *ptr;
        for(int i=0;i<Q-1;i+=2){
        *ptr= *(L+i);
        *(L+i)= *(L+i+1);
        *(L+i+1)= *ptr;
        }
}
int main() {
    // Write C code here
    int N;
    scanf("%d",&N);
        char str[N+1];
        scanf("%s",str);
       swapchars(N,str);
        printf("%s",str);
    return 0;
}

I don't know what is wrong with this code it keeps generating segfault although when I used the same loop directly in the main function without an external function the code was working properly

A: You haven't initialized ptr to anything, so dereferencing it is undefined - you are writing to a random place in memory.
Think about whether you really need a pointer to store the intermediate value.

Nerdophiles Catch Up With… "Parks and Recreation"
Kathryn Loper
It's been three years since we last been to Pawnee.
Ok, not really, but for the characters we have come to know and love over the past six seasons there has been a three year jump in time. With the seventh, and final, season premiering on January 13th, let's take a look back on season 6 to get refreshed before the premiere!
The man, the legend, the new father [NBC]
The season started off with a ton of new adventures for the team- namely the reveal that Diane was pregnant and Ron (Nick Offerman) was going to be a father. After proposing and getting married on the fourth floor essentially right after the proposal, the two prepare for their child, and Ron continues to be his government loathing self. Midway through the season Diane gives birth to a bouncing baby boy named John, and Ron immediately begins teaching him the ways of being a man– my favorite scene being when Ron begins to renovate the entire third floor the first day he brings his son into work.
But John wasn't the only baby to be introduced to the group! Ann (Rashida Jones) and Chris (Rob Lowe) discovered that they themselves were also expecting a baby and make the decision that it's time to leave Pawnee and make a new home for the two of them. Fans were heartbroken to hear that Leslie was losing her best friend, but the tears came back when Leslie goes to meet Oliver, their baby boy.
Tom Haverford remains ever the same [NBC]
Babies weren't the only things growing up this season– perpetual fan favorites such as Tom Haverford (Aziz Ansari), April Ludgate (Aubrey Plaza), and Andy Dwyer (Starlord) find themselves having to make adult decisions in their lives. Tom Haverford still believes that "Rent-A-Swag" is a golden idea, until he finds out that Jean-Ralphio's father is his main competition, causing him to sell his brainchild.
He finds himself focusing on his work for once, playing an immense role in helping introduce fluoride into Pawnee's water (quite possibly the most involved he's been in his actual job) and helping plan the Unity Concert once Eagleton is absorbed by Pawnee. He still maintains his dreams of grandeur though and he finally catches a break once he opens his restaurant on the night of the concert and gains a huge investor.
April and Andy have to face the problems that anyone in a long distance relationship do though. Andy is still in London working for Sweetum's charity, but he still misses April with all his heart. When he comes to visit she convinces him that what he's doing is important and that she'll support him no matter what he does.
Reaffirming their love for each other and their commitment, he finishes his job in London before returning to Pawnee and finding out the deep secret of Ron Swanson, convincing him to perform at the Unity Concert under his stage name, Duke Silver. April continues her work as the Deputy Director of Animal Control, and learns to stand up for herself and how to be an effective manager.
Still together. Still cute. [NBC]
But of course, this show is still about Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) and her dreams of being the next Hilary Clinton. Leslie faces her own series of trials over the season, mainly over the absorption of Eagleton by Pawnee. After performing an amazing filibuster which won them the voting rights of the citizens of Eagleton, she finds herself the subject of a recall vote- one that she loses and finds herself replaced with.
While life seemed to be moving along for everyone else, Leslie herself had to make some incredibly important decisions. Throughout the season, she finds herself debating whether or not to accept the job offer she had been given to move to Chicago and work for the National Parks Service. Ben Wyatt (Adam Scott) still remains by her side and tries to convince her to take the job and that he'd go anywhere with her, but he's facing his own internal dilemma himself.
He wants a family- and he wants it bad. When he finally gains the courage to tell Leslie that he's ready to start a family, she has a surprise for him. She's pregnant.
[NBC]
Even more surprising? They're expecting triplets.
Leslie accepts the job under one condition- that they can stay in Pawnee. Flash forward three years and there they are on the shiny third floor with two sons and a daughter to call their own.
So what are you expecting from the final season? I know I can't wait to find out what the triplets' names are, and just what exactly had happened over the past three years.
"Parks and Recreation" premieres on Tuesday, January 13th on NBC at 8 PM and will air 2 episodes a week back to back until the series finale on February 24th.

    avg(case when "HeartRate" > 0 then "HeartRate" end)::int as "HeartRate",
    avg(case when "BreathRate" > 0 then "BreathRate" end)::int as "BreathRate"

The above query results into 2 results if there are 2 distinct sources. One for Source=100 and the other for Source=200. The number of rows in result should be (provided enough data is available) equal to number of distinct Source values.
How can the above query be changed such that it doesn't depend on the union of multiple selects and static values of Source

A: you can do it like this :
select
    "UserId",
    "Source",
    avg(case when "HeartRate" > 0 then "HeartRate" end) :: int as "HeartRate",
    avg(case when "BreathRate" > 0 then "BreathRate" end) :: int as "BreathRate"
from vitals
where
    "UserId" = '66fd490f-4d93-47d1-bc65-085f676bdaf2'
    and "Source" IN(100, 200)
group by "UserId","Source"
order by "UserId"

A: Just remove the filtering condition:
select "UserId", "Source",
       avg(case when "HeartRate" > 0 then "HeartRate" end)::int as "HeartRate",
       avg(case when "BreathRate" > 0 then "BreathRate" end)::int as "BreathRate"
from vitals
where "UserId" = '66fd490f-4d93-47d1-bc65-085f676bdaf2'
group by "UserId", "Source"
order by "UserId", "Source";

If you want particular sources, you can use and Source" in (100, 200, . . . )`.

Q: How can I speed up this Athena Query? I am running a query through the Athena Query Editor on a table in the Glue Data Catalog and would like to understand why it takes so long to do a simple select * from this data.
Our data is stored in an S3 bucket that is partitioned by year/month/day/hour, with 80 snappy Parquet files per partition that are anywhere between 1 - 10 MB in size each. When I run the following query:
select stringA, stringB, timestampA, timestampB, bigintA, bigintB
from tableA
where year='2021' and month='2' and day = '2'

It scans 700MB but takes over 3 minutes to display the Athena results. I feel that we have already optimized the file format and partitioning for this data, and so I am unsure how else we can improve the performance if we're just trying to select this data out and display it in a tool like QuickSight.

A: The select * performance was impacted by the number of files that needed to be scanned, which were all relatively small. Repartitioning and removing the hour partition resulted in an improvement in both runtime (14% reduction) and also data scanned (26% reduction) due to snappy compression getting more gains on larger files.

Home/Foreign/Ancelotti wants fair play on season restart date
Ancelotti wants fair play on season restart date
OSBC April 3, 2020 Leave a comment
Before the Premier League starts up it must ensure all clubs resume training on the same day, Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti, told a French magazine in an interview published on Friday.
The Premier League is on hold because of the coronavirus pandemic and is scheduled to resume on May 3. But Ancelotti said the situation would be clearer after a meeting between clubs and league officials on Friday.
"One of the important things is that all the clubs resume training at the same time, that there are no disparities, that no one has an advantage over the others," the 60-year-old Italian told L'Equipe. "Players nowadays are capable of being physically ready within a fortnight."
Ancelotti, who took over at Everton in December, has won the Champions League as a player and the coach and has led teams to league titles in Italy, Germany, France and England.
After more than 45 years in the game, he finds himself in a world without football, preoccupied with the terrible toll the coronavirus pandemic is taking, particularly in his native Italy. Unsure of what is going to happen next, he is calm in the face of the uncertainty.
Confined to his home in Liverpool and with no players to coach or matches to watch, he is in no rush to return to the managerial treadmill.
"It's a little strange to me. It's something I've never done," he said.
The whole Everton squad stayed in England and none have tested positive for COVID-19, he said.
"I keep in touch with the players. I don't call them regularly but, with the staff, we send them a training programme that we update to keep them in good physical condition. Even though I know they are."
– Painful –
Even if the league does resume on May 3, players will have gone seven weeks without collective training.
"It's a lot, but a player has no problem taking part in a match after a seven or eight-week break. Of course, he won't be at 100 per cent when he resumes, but he has the ability to do it, there's no doubt about that," he said. "You train while you play."
He says he is talking to friends and relatives in Italy by phone.
"It's very painful to hear that so many of my compatriots are dying every day."
While he said the pandemic was "like a war," Ancelotti remained optimistic about the future.
"It's unfortunate to have to mourn so many deaths, but this crisis will bring society back to other, more human relationships.
"We are becoming aware, during confinement, that it is important for a daughter and her father or a husband and wife to talk to each other and communicate more. We are regaining the desire to talk and not just to have our noses on the phone."
"We spend all our time running and it feels good to take a break."

The Wills Group Brings Together Partners to End Childhood Hunger, Raising More Than $153,000 at Fourth Annual Blackie Wills Golf Classic
The event raises charitable dollars for the Blackie Wills Community Leadership Fund – supporting the Wills Group's community engagement efforts to address the needs of individuals and families in local communities
The Wills Group, a family-owned company headquartered in La Plata, Maryland, raised more than $153,000 in support of the Blackie Wills Community Leadership Fund at its fourth annual Blackie Wills Golf Classic event.
This year's Golf Classic, held on Monday, September 14, took place at Turf Valley Resort in Ellicott City, Maryland. To ensure the health and well-being of guests, all activities followed
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Maryland Department of Health safety guidelines.
Since March 2020, the Wills Group has donated $500,000 through the Blackie Wills Community Leadership Fund to support regional food banks and nonprofit organizations as they address increased hunger and food insecurity as a result of COVID-19.
Funds raised at this year's Blackie Wills Golf Classic event will help to support the Wills Group's ongoing community engagement efforts to end childhood hunger, as well as respond to increased needs of children and families in local communities amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
"Our communities need us now, more than ever.

"We are thankful for everyone who participated in this year's golf classic and contributed to the Blackie Wills Community Leadership Fund.
