How do you determine the IP of the camera after it picks up on the wifi for future maintenance and monitoring?
I believe it is set to defaults.
I have noticed that my cameras are not always recording/broadcasting. They only seem to do it when there is motion. This sometimes causes an issue when trying to access them through the Engenuis App. The lightning bolt will be gray and not allow connection unless there is motion. I have two EnGenius EDS5255.
Most cameras today offer a cloud based storage option. What is the best way to obtain 7 days of playback from anywhere? I do not want to use a separate gateway, router, and an external hard drive. That is a lot of effort, when so many other products on the market make it easier. I am using Engenius EDS5255 cameras.It also shows an SD card option, but there is no place for an SD card on this model.
I bought two EnGenius EDS5255 cameras. I have been unable to add them my wifi. Each camera is currently plugged into a gigabit switch and has a valid DHCP IP address. I can go to Google Chrome, type in the IP address, and configure the cameras. However, when I attempt to apply the AP profile created in the GUI, it says rebooting and has a countdown from 15. After the reboot of the camera it boots back to the original screen and says disconnected from wifi. The wifi password and SSID information is correct. How do I connect these wireless cameras to a wireless network? I also attempted through the Engenius APP and the QR codes, but adding the cameras to wifi through the EnGenius app on the iPhone is not a valid option. I am hoping to buy 5 more of these cameras to include an AP bridge, but if I cannot get these two connected to the wireless, I am going to return them. I have tried to call technical support and hung up after 80 minutes on hold yesterday. is there a different 1-800 number?


So, we're going to do this Friday Finds thing again. I'm not sure if you guys think they're a cop-out or you like them but it's been a long day of power outages and such so, this is what you're gittin' fer dinner! I hope you like it!
I feel like there's a theme going on here but I can't quite put my finger on what it is... Camp? The transition from summer to fall? I don't know but frankly, that tipi is redic, huh?


CEO Ordered To Pay $18 Million For Sexually Harassing Employee Sued For $300 Million By Lawyers He Called "Midgets"
Benjamin Wey is having a tough summer.
A few weeks back, a couple of lawyers scored $18 million for their client, Hanna Bouveng, who took her former boss, Ben Weng, to court for (among other things): telling her to wear provocative clothes aroudn the office, pressuring her to sleep with him, firing her for having a boyfriend, and calling her a prostitute on the internet. Now, Bouveng's attorneys have a bone of their own to pick with the guy.
Attorneys David Ratner and Benedict Morelli, who won the big jury award for their client Hanna Bouveng in June, are suing New York Global Group head Benjamin Wey for defamation, over statements he posted on the website The Blot Magazine and in other public forums. In the height slight, Wey calls Ratner a "4-foot-tall midget lawyer" who is "short on the law." Ratner is, in fact, more than 5 feet tall. The blog also falsely claims that Ratner and partner Morelli are "crooks" who are under FBI investigation for bank fraud, according to the suit. Ratner, Morelli and two other attorneys from their firm want a judge to bar Wey from making further defamatory statements. They are also asking for $100 million in compensatory damages and $200 million in punitive damages.
A jury was not impressed with Benjamin Wey.
What? Is that not standard protocol in other places of business?
This is a human right!

I've made an art out of making you feel good, and my influence makes you want to be good. Good like me. You think you know me, but you don't. Everyone has secrets. Mine could cost me everything.

The siren and the sailor
When Finley was a little girl her mother used to tell her stories of a princess—her. And her dear friend… a prince. Prince Declan. In Greek mythology, the Sirens lured sailors from the sea to a remote island. Much like in Greek mythology Finley is the Siren who lures Declan with her sex appeal. The only way in and out of Tristan da Cunha is by boat. Finley lives on a remote volcanic island. Finley grew up on this remote island with no interest in leaving. As a young boy Declan would visit the island with his father. After several long years Declan returns to the island bringing supplies. Narrators: Stacey Holmes is the female narrator who performs Finley's scenes. She is new to me as a performer. I quite like her English accent. Tim Paige is the male narrator who performs Declan's scenes. He's new to me as a performer. It took a few scenes before I warmed up to his voice. Once I gave him a shot he grew on me. The audiobook had no outside disturbances, the sound quality was outstanding. The narrators performed the scenes word perfectly. I followed along with the ebook. This was my second attempt at reading this book. Having the audiobook version didn't enhance my reading experience. Overall: An enemy's to lover trope. The pet nicknames were weird, yet the nicknames were cute. The sailor and the siren was a hard "no" from me. Referring to him as "the Carnegie" was another "no" from me. The concept was mediocre and the execution was wordy. I wasn't entertained by the Greek mythology similarities. In fact, I found the behaviors of these characters awkward. The author chose to write Finley's character as a twenty-seven year old Catholic with a propriety for modesty. I however didn't enjoy this aspect of her character. Was it written well? Yes. The author spent a great deal of time convincing me of Finley's inexperience and simple decency. I felt she was too sheltered and naive for a doctors assistant. The setting, the way these characters were portrayed, and the environment just annoyed me. Living on this remote island served its purpose in creating Finley's lack of experience, yet I found it redundant and lacking. If this was an attempt at taboo it was lost on me. The sex scenes were bizarre. The way they explored each other was odd. I was uncomfortable reading those scenes. The Push n pull didn't help bond a connection for me. I always struggle with this type of tactic. It causes a disconnect for me. This was my fourth attempt at reading an Ella James book. Unfortunately, her writing style and my interest in a dialogue driven story don't line up. The story was composed of two parts. Part one is the reintroduction of how they meet in the present. Part two delves into the past. The author achieved what she set out to do with her characters. Although, I didn't care for either one. Declan was this emotionally closed off man who brought a past full of haunting nightmares. Finley was this lonely woman desperate for the touch of this star athlete with a physique unlike the men in her hometown. The guy on the cover is enticing. However, the cover doesn't adequately represent the content inside. Declan has a deep dark past that crosses over into his present life with Finley. While he is an athlete with a desirable physique he is emotionally cut off. It's misleading to have this attractive guy on the cover representing Declan.

Very original and emotional
Really liked this book. Didn't see some of it coming.! Love when that happens! Highly recommend it!
Tough subjects Beautifully written 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Ella James is a new author to me. She wrote a love story of two people who reconnect years later after seeing each other during a tragedy when they were children. Each has their demons. Together they heal each other. Twist at the end was so welcome. The narration of Stacey Holmes (what a beautiful accent) and Tim Paige was flawless. I loved this book. ❤❤❤❤❤
That cover though!
First, if you are strong enough to pass by this cover and not be curious… well, you are way stronger than I!! I saw this cover and was beyond… curious, yes, we'll go with curious. I mean, good Lord man… where is the warning label? This thing is insanely hot! I was a bit shocked with how long the storyline was. I've always been used to a decent story from Ella James, nothing too extreme but nothing short and abrupt. I'll be strait and honest here; I could have dealt with about ¼ of the story removed. It felt like there was a bit too much… description, information… I'm not sure what was too much but it doesn't feel like it's all necessary. However with all that being said, Miss James gives us some really deep and strong characters. The story itself starts off with an emotional bang and leaves you feeling ragged with every single emotion. These characters have connections and even though life has brought them in so many different directions; the island brings them back to the heart of everything. It's really surprising how much I enjoyed the story… it was incredibly sweet at times and insanely sexy! I really love the way they discover and find themselves over time… it's a personal adventure!

Good story good narrative no regrets
I'm glad I didn't go by the other reviews because I really enjoyed this book. I didn't find it confusing in the least and it held my attention all the way through. I don't regret choosing it and I'd have no problem recommending it to others.
V from Kansas
Pretty dang intense, emotionally!
Wow, this was a tough listen, not because it isn't a well written book, because the subject matter is difficult. I was a moody lady, while listening to this book, and it was a relief to get through it because it really got to me. One thing I learned, while listening, is that a person who is trying to recover from drug addiction, has a more difficult road to recovery, then I thought. I understand now, why so many choose to end their lives then go through the hell required to get clean and stay clean. Both the Hero and the Heroine have suffered childhood trauma that has continued to shape their world. Therefore, they understand each other and are ideally suited. Unfortunately, they have battle they must fight and win in order to be together. This is a must listen! -V from Kansas Hide me

This book is so unexpectedly amazing. I love their story. I love the characters and am now left wanting more. Such a beautiful, deep and filled with sorrow love story.
Oscar baby
Wow, very original story
I rarely write reviews because what's one man's trash is another man's treasure but I did want to take the time to write a review. A previous reviewer said this was an original story and boy was it. The setting the storyline, all of it. It's a story of two people who come from completely different backgrounds coming back together years later in their adulthood and each with a bit of a messed up past. Without giving anything away and in usual Ella James fashion, there is a twist that you do not see coming. It's a beautiful book and not rushed. It's 15 wonderful hours of a beautiful love story.
Jennaflower
Loved the story and The characters, was a bit disappointed that it didn't connect to the previous 2 books in the series.

Bob Berg, 51, Tenor Saxophonist
By BEN RATLIFF DEC. 7, 2002
Bob Berg, a tenor saxophonist who brought the speed and intensity of middle-period John Coltrane into a jazz-fusion context, died on Thursday in an automobile accident in Amagansett, N.Y., said Christine Martin, his friend and former manager. He was 51.
Mr. Berg and his wife, Arja, had left their home in East Hampton, N.Y., on an errand and were on Route 27 in Amagansett when the driver of a cement truck lost control and collided with the Bergs' car. Ms. Berg was injured in the crash.
Mr. Berg grew up in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, and took up the saxophone at 13. He studied at the High School of Performing Arts and Juilliard; before graduating, he toured with the organist Brother Jack McDuff.
Through the 1970's, he played in Horace Silver's band and in Cedar Walton's quartet, Eastern Rebellion, but found his biggest audience in the 1980's, after he became a sideman in Miles Davis's group in 1984. His tenure there lasted three years.
Later Mr. Berg led a band with the guitarist Mike Stern that became popular on the jazz-club circuit. In 1992 he joined Chick Corea's acoustic quartet. He also made albums under his own name for the Denon, Stretch and GRP labels, including ''Back Roads,'' nominated for a Grammy in 1993. Most recently Mr. Berg was involved in a re-creation of the fusion band Steps Ahead.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by their children, Mia and David, both of East Hampton; his mother, Annette, of Brooklyn; and his brother, Jeff Berg of Staten Island.

Want Fantastic Weather In Mauritius?
What weather in Mauritius do you want to experience? Mauritius is located approximately 2000 kilometres (km) 1240 miles (mi) south of the equator and approximately 900km (560 mi) east of Madagascar.
Generally the summer months of December to March are very warm, humid and frequently lashed by very heavy rain, especially if a tropical cyclone approaches Mauritius.
In contrast, during the winter (June to September), the weather is quite cool, dry and windy. In fact, you may come to realise that the cooler months are the best time to visit.
Did you know that Mauritius has at least 27 micro climates?
Do you need to know what the weather is normally like in Mauritius in a particular month?

Worried about tropical cyclones interupting your holiday
The official tropical cyclone season in Mauritius runs from the 1st November to the 15th May, but generally, the more severe tropical cyclones occur in January and February.
You needn't feel too alarmed by this since the vast majority of recent tropical cyclones have not impacted Mauritius but have moved into the Mozambique Channel to the west of Madagascar.
If you're interested in reading more information, I've written another page about tropical cyclones in Mauritius.
Read what other people have asked regarding the weather in Mauritius
Summer weather in Mauritius
The weather in Mauritius during summer is best described as hot, humid and rainy. You'll find that on most days the morning will start out sunny, but from 2pm onwards, thunderstorms will start to form. These thunderstorms are very localised so while one location may record very heavy rain that may last up to an hour or two, just down the road, there may be hardly any rain at all. Having said that, if you're located on the western side of Mauritius, the rain is generally less frequent and usually doesn't last as long as it does in other parts of Mauritius.
Port Louis, the capital city of Mauritius, commonly records the highest daytime temperatures since this city is situated in a basin which nearly blocks all of the cooler south-easterly trade winds. Furthermore, the city produces its own urban heat island effect and so this region tends to be at least one degree warmer than most other locations in Mauritius.
Also make sure you have some back up plans if the weather turns really nasty. For example, what would you do if a tropical cyclone suddenly approached Mauritius whilst you're on holidays there?
You should definitely think of obtaining some travel insurance before you travel here during the summer months just in case you're forced to stay in Mauritius for a few days longer than you anticipated. You should also find out if the accommodation that you're planning to stay at on Mauritius will cover expenses if indeed a tropical cyclone prevents you from leaving Mauritius. You don't want to be out of pocket due to the severe weather in Mauritius.

The weather in Mauritius during December will be very warm and muggy by night and hot and humid during the day. Temperatures should not drop below 20°C at night along the coastal parts of Mauritius throughout December.
However, some towns located at higher altitudes may record minimum temperatures of about 18-19°C. The daytime maximum temperatures will vary from 28°C to 31°C near the coast, but once again, the higher parts of the inland regions may only see temperatures rising to 25-27°C.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather in Mauritius during December
Windy afternoons
High temperatures
High Moderate Moderate High High
The north and western parts of Mauritius normally record the highest daytime maximum temperatures. There may be one or two days when the maximum temperature reaches 32-33°C, but this occurs on days when there's no wind.
You can also expect that the afternoon thunderstorms will produce short periods of rain near the start of December and much heavier rain by the end of the month.

Climatological information for Mauritius during January
Eastern parts of Mauritius 261 22.0 28.8 27.4
Southern parts of Mauritius 237 23.0 29.8 27.2
January is known as the second wettest month in Mauritius. The weather in Mauritius during January can only be described as hot, very humid and rainy. Due to the combination of these factors, you may find that the weather in Mauritius at this time of year is very uncomfortable. You'll definitely require air conditioning at night and maybe during the day if the sea breeze doesn't arrive in the afternoon to cool things down for you.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather in Mauritius during January
Extreme (end of month) Moderate High High High
The overnight temperatures during January will average 22-23°C near sea level and about 20°C in the mountains. The maximum temperatures will hover around around 29°C to 31°C on the coast. You may get one or two days when the maximum temperature will rise above 34°C, but this will occur in the north and the western side of Mauritius, where there's minimal wind.
Afternoon thunderstorms will become more frequent and prolonged during January. For this reason, you may need to alter your travel plans accordingly around these storms. The rain is less frequent near the western coastline of Mauritius during January and so this maybe the best location to stay at. (Although...don't blame me if it rains all day since I can't control the weather.)
Weather in Mauritius during February
Climatological information for Mauritius during February
February is the wettest and most humid time of the year in Mauritius. For this reason you should expect wet weather to occur at any hour of the day. The heaviest rain will fall over the inland region of Mauritius. The higher parts of the inland plateau typically record between 400-700mm (16-27 inches) of rain during this month alone.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather in Mauritius during February
Extreme (at times) Moderate High High High
You may find that February weather in Mauritius is shockingly humid. Many people wish they'd chosen a different month to arrive since they found both the heat and humidity unbearable. If you decide to jump on a plane in the Northern Hemisphere's late winter and then take a holiday in the Mauritian summer, then you may have wished that you acclimatised first.
If you're not sure when you want to travel to Mauritius and you've never experienced high humidity, then you would be wise not to choose February.
February is also the most frequent month climatologically for the arrival of tropical cyclones. This of course means that you should very carefully consider whether February is the month you really want to travel to Mauritius.
Autumn weather in Mauritius
Weather in Mauritius in March
Climatological information for Mauritius during March
West coastline of Mauritius 86 22.4 30.2 27.8
The weather in Mauritius in March normally follows a similar pattern to the weather in February. You can still expect to see plenty of rain in all regions of Mauritius except along the western coastline both north and south of Flic en Flac beach. Although by the end of March, both the rainfall and temperatures will begin to decrease slightly.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather during March
You will still require air conditioning at night in March throughout most parts of Mauritius, except if you're staying up in the mountains.
Along the coastal areas you can expect the average minimum temperature will drop to between 21-22°C. In comparison, the higher elevation inland regions will record miminum temperatures of about 20°C.
The daytime maximum temperatures will reach about 29°C along the southern and eastern coastlines but around 30°C over the northern and western parts of Mauritius. Again, the higher altitude inland regions will be a little cooler during the day with temperatures rising to about 27°C.
Weather in Mauritius in April
Climatological information for Mauritius during April
The weather in Mauritius in April is still very warm and humid. Most parts of Mauritius record the same amount of rain as in March, but less than in February.
You can still expect that the first couple of weeks of April will have frequent afternoon showers and thunderstorms. However, generally by the last week of April, both the afternoon thunderstorm activity and its associated rainfall will start to decrease.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather during April
Moderate Moderate Moderate High High (early in the month)
So if you're planning of spending most of your time at the beach, then you should consider travelling to Mauritius near the end of April since the threat of tropical cyclones is quite low.
Even though April is still considered to be part of the cyclone season, you're less likely to see menacing tropical cyclones hovering off the coast. The weather in Mauritius or I should say, the weather patterns over Mauritius in April is not as conducive to their formation as they were in January, February and March. If tropical cyclones do form, they will normally occur during the first two weeks of April.
During April, sea temperatures are still very warm (27°C) no matter what coastal part of Mauritius you plan to swim in. There will also be more sun than clouds near the end of April and so you should be able to enjoy your day at the beach without worrying as much about the weather.
The overnight temperatures along the coastal areas of Mauritius during the first couple of weeks in April will average around 21-22°C but by the end of the month it will drop to about 20-21°C.
During the day, first part of April will see maximum temperatures rising to about 29°C over the coastal regions. However, the weather in Mauritius will become a little cooler by the end of April and so the maximum will rise to between 27-28°C.
The weather in Mauritius in May
Climatological information for Mauritius during May
Northern part of Mauritius 99 18.6 28.1 27.4
May is a great time to visit Mauritius since both the summer humidity and heat has lost its grip. During May, overnight temperatures will drop to around 18-20°C along the coast, whereas the inland regions will be a couple of degrees cooler than this.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather during May
Moderate Moderate Low Low Moderate
If you want to check out the beach, the warmest sea temperatures (26°C) will be located along the northern beaches.
Also, the daytime maximum temperatures across Mauritius in May will start to vary. The warmest location will be found along the northern and western regions of Mauritius where it will average 28°C. The southern part of Mauritius will reach maximum temperatures of about 27°C and eastern parts will have the coolest maximum temperatures of about 26°C.
May is the beginning of the dry season and so you can expect that many of the days will be sunny. Although, when it does rain, it won't spoil your holiday since the rain comes in the form of quick, sharp showers. Most of the rain on Mauritius during May is confined to the mountainous plateau regions.
Typically, by the end of May, the weather in Mauritius becomes a little windier along the eastern and southern coastlines. This wind draws in moisture from off the sea which results in shower activity over the windier exposed parts of the coastline as well as on the eastern slopes of the central plateau.
At the same time, the weather on the western side of Mauritius tends to remain quite dry since the high inland mountains block the clouds from progressing westward. So if you want a sunny, rainless holiday in Mauritius in May then you should consider staying on the west coast.
Winter weather in Mauritius
Mauritius lies in the southeast trade wind belt and for that reason both the eastern and southern parts of Mauritius get quite gusty south easterly winds (i.e. winds coming from the south east) during winter. In order for you to escape the wind, you're best bet is to head off to the northwestern and western parts of Mauritius since the mountains block the winds from arriving in this region. The windiest months in winter occur in late July and early August.
You shouldn't see any snow in Mauritius during the winter for two reasons:
Mauritius lies within the tropics
The temperatures aren't cold enough even at the summit of the highest mountain.
You're also unlikely to experience frosts, even over the inland regions, but it will still get quite chilly in the mountains.
Weather in Mauritius in June
Climatological information for Mauritius during June
Southern part of Mauritius 95 18.7 25.2 24.7
Inland areas (Vacoas) 96 16.0 22.9 -
If you're planning to come to Mauritius in June and you're from the Northern Hemisphere, you must remember it's the beginning of winter here. Believe it or not, some people do forget that and wonder why it's not that hot.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather during June
Low High Low Low Low
June is also the month when you're likely to see many sunny days at the beach, so if you decide to arrive in June then you're in for some great weather. However, that doesn't mean you won't see any rain. There will still be some shower activity along the exposed parts of the eastern and southern coastlines. However, there won't be much rain, just short, sharp showers. The north western and western coastlines should remain rain free (well almost) and have the most amount of sun.
The temperatures across Mauritius in June does vary according to your location. The coldest location on Mauritus in June is situated in the central plateau region in the mountains where the temperatures will range from a minimum overnight temperature of between 12-16°C before reaching a daytime maximum of between 19-23°C.
In comparison, the warmest part of Mauritius in June is normally found along both the northern and western coastlines. The overnight temperatures in the warmest parts of Mauritius will range from 15-18°C and by day, the temperatures should rise to between 25-27°C.
Along the windy southern and eastern coastlines, you should see temperatures falling to about 14-18°C overnight before reaching a maximum temperature of around 24-25°C.
Weather in Mauritius in July and August
Climatological information for Mauritius during July
Both July and August are known as the coolest months of the year. The inland mountainous region normally record minimum overnight temperatures of between 10-15°C. During the day, the maximum temperatures rise to between 18-22°C.
Climatological information for Mauritius during August
In contrast, the western and northern coastlines are considerably warmer. Overnight temperatures range from 12-17°C and by day, the temperatures reaches around 25-26°C. The southern and eastern coastlines experience sightly cooler daytime temperatures.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather in Mauritius during July and August
If you like to go windsurfing, then July and August are the windiest months of the year. The strong and gusty south easterly trade winds blow consistently throughout these months. If you want to go swimming in an area that's not directly affected by the wind then check out Flic en Flac beach, which is located on the west coast.
The driest and sunniest part of Mauritius in July and August is definitely the western coastline. You'll see little if any rain if you stay on the western side of Mauritius. However, all other parts of Mauritius will receive some showery type weather, but it shouldn't be enough for you to worry about.
Spring weather in Mauritius
Weather in Mauritius during September
Climatological information for Mauritius during September
Eastern part of Mauritius 70 17.1 24.3 23.6
September is normally a month for beautiful weather in Mauritius since it's recognised as the second driest month of the year. You'll be lucky to see any rain at all if you plan to stay on the western side of Mauritius during September. Most other regions of Mauritius do receive some rain but it certainly won't be enough to become bothersome.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather in Mauritius during September
Low High (first couple of weeks into September) Low Low Low
You can expect that overnight temperatures will still be cool during the first couple of weeks in September, particularly over the mountainous inland regions. The minimum temperature will vary between 13-18°C. The higher overnight temperatures in September are normally confined to the coastal parts of Mauritius.
By day, the maximum temperatures will reach a comfortable 23°C in the mountains and around 24°C (in the east), 25°C (in southern coastal areas), and 27°C in both the western and northern parts of Mauritius.
September is not nearly as windy as it is in July and August, so in that regard you may find that this month is one of the best times to visit Mauritius.
Weather in Mauritius during October
Climatological information for Mauritius during October
Sunny weather in Mauritius is almost guaranteed, (especially along the west coast). In fact, October generally has the least rain out of any month in Mauritius. Although, the western side of Mauritius has less rain in September than in October.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather in Mauritius during October
Moderate near end of month Moderate Low Low Moderate near end of month
If you're planning to arrive in Mauritius in October, then make sure you bring adequate sun protection since this is also the sunniest month of the year. Remember the temperatures do not need to be very high for you to become sunburnt.
The overnight temperatures along the coastal areas of Mauritius during the first couple of weeks in October will average around 17-18°C but by the end of the month it will increase to about 18-19°C. During the day, the first part of October will see maximum temperatures rising to between 24-27°C along the coastal regions. However, higher maximum temperatures of between 25-28°C will become a daily occurrence near the end of October.
Weather in Mauritius in November
Climatological information for Mauritius during November
The weather in Mauritius during November gradually becomes hotter and more humid with each passing week. So if you want a nice holiday with minimal rain, then plan to arrive in Mauritius in the first couple of weeks of November. After that, afternoon thunderstorms become more frequent and tend to produce heavier rain in the latter part of this month.
Risk of thermal discomfort and severe weather during November
Moderate Moderate Low Moderate at end of month Moderate
You should see very warm daytime temperatures across the coastal parts of Mauritius throughout November. These temperatures will vary from 27-30°C. At night, there won't be many nights when the temperature drops much below 19°C.
The mountainous parts of Mauritius will have the coolest temperatures. The temperature range in this part of Mauritius will range from 16-18°C at night to about 25-26°C during the day.
If you're planning to go hiking in the mountains, make sure you visit in the early part of November since heavy rains will hit the area from mid to late November.
If you're staying at a resort on Mauritius, men are expected to wear long pants when dining at a restaurant. As for the women, if you dress smart, you can wear skirts or smart looking pants if you like. Once you have left the restaurant feel free whatever makes you comfortable. Below is a few tips that should help with the packing:
During the summer (December-February)
If you plan to visit Mauritius during the summer months then should plan to bring only summer clothing, preferably light, loose fitting material made out of cotton. Don't plan to walk around wearing denim jeans since they'll stick to your legs when you sweat and also you'll be far too hot.
Remember, you came to Mauritius to escape from the cold, so make sure you don't forget to soak up some of the sun's rays in order to get your daily dose of vitamin D3. That means you should at least allow 10 minutes exposure to direct sunlight. After this time, you should then cover up and avoid getting sunburnt. Of course, if you're going swimming, remember to apply water repellent sunscreen.
During the winter (June, July and August)
During the winter, you should plan to bring some warmer clothing with you for going out at night. During the day, most of the time near the coast, especially along the western side of Mauritius, you can probably wear summer type clothing.
The eastern and southern coastlines will be quite windy at times and at least 2°C cooler than the western side of Mauritius. So in the these parts of Mauritius, you will feel quite comfortable wearing a pair of jeans and a loose fitting top.
Even though winter is much cooler than it is in summer, you should still protect your skin from sunburn if you plan to stay out in the sun for prolonged periods of time. It should be okay for you to spend at least 15-20 minutes in the sun before you need to apply sunscreen.
The best answer to this is to go and stay on the western side of Mauritius.
The Mauritius rainfall varies considerably according to your location on the island. Generally, the wettest spot in Mauritius occurs near the summit of the mountains. These mountains receive around 4000mm (157 inches) of rain annually since they attract rain-bearing clouds.
The rainfall decreases as you travel towards the ocean. The south eastern side of Mauritius normally receives twice as much rain as the western side. For this reason, if you want to have great weather at the beach even during the wet season then you should consider going to the beaches found on the western side of Mauritius.
There are two great beaches you need to be aware of the west coast that are worth checking out. These are called Flic en Flac and Tamarin Bay.
This part of Mauritius has much less rain during the summer months and when it does rain, the rain doesn't stick around as long. The western coastline of Mauritius over the last 30 years has only recorded about 600mm of rain for the year.
If there's a tropical storm or even worse, a tropical cyclone approaching, then you're likely to receive 20-30% of the total annual rainfall in a matter of 48 hours. If this happens, you're sure to see some major flash flooding across Mauritius.
The hottest weather in Mauritius during the daytime normally occurs in the north and western side of Mauritius. In fact, Port Louis is stiffling hot at times during the summer since there's minimal sea breezes to cool the city down.
The east coast is generally a little cooler than the southern parts of Mauritius since moist southeasterly trade winds prevent the maximum temperatures rising significantly in this region.
The mountains have the coolest temperatures
If you're planning to go hiking in the mountains, then you're advised to go in the winter since you've got a better chance of enjoying your walk in the sun. During the summer, torrential rain may ruin your hiking trip.
Remember that the temperature decreases with height and so you can expect that the daytime maximum temperatures will be at least 4-6°C cooler than at sea level. The mountains certainly won't be cold enough for you to see snow even in the winter (June-September) since the mountains aren't high enough. The highest mountain (known as Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire) in Mauritius is only 827 metres (2713 ft) above sea level.
Mauritius is located in the south-east trade wind belt and for about 80% of the time, the winds come in from the south east. As you would expect, the mountains located over the central part of Mauritius act as a natural barrier to these winds.
So if you want to make sure that you're not going to blown to bits by the wind then the north western side of Mauritius is the least windy location on Mauritius.
However, the north western side can get quite windy during the summer months (December to February), so be sure to choose the best beach based on what month it is.
Best surf locations
If you want great surf then you should definitely check out south western coastline of Mauritius, in particular Tamarin bay and Le Morne point.
Tamarin Bay has a large number of warm, sunny days and receives minimal rainfall as does Flic en Flac beach. Many people label Tamarin Bay as the ultimate surfing spot in all Mauritius since as if the waves were made for surfing. Tamarin Bay is very safe since there's no dangerous undercurrents to drag you out to sea and generally the winds are quite light.
Le Morne point is located near the far southern western corner of Mauritius and usually has more rain than Tamarin Bay. Le Morne point normally experiences more hazardous weather conditions and larger waves with strong undercurrents since it's more exposed to the S.E. trade winds. However, in light of all that, it still is a great surf beach.
The best time to go surfing in Mauritius is during the winter (June-August) since this coincides the strongest south-easterly trade winds.

At the Golden Globes, Ricky Gervais Exposes Hollywood's 'Woke' Culture
Jarrett Stepman | January 7, 2020
Hollywood can't take a joke.
At the annual Golden Globes, an awards show for both movies and television, on Sunday night, host comedian Ricky Gervais was actually funny, lampooning Hollywood in general and its "woke" culture in particular.
"Let's have a laugh at your expense," Gervais said in opening his monologue at the Globes' 77th awards ceremony, presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. "Remember, we're all going to die soon. And there's no sequel."
It was quite a performance, though it's clear that while some celebrities laughed along with the jokes, many others were not amused, or had uncomfortable reactions.
During the course of his monologue, Gervais joked that this would undoubtedly be his last awards show, so he didn't care if he offended people.
His speech ended up being a phenomenal takedown of an overly political and absurdly left-wing Hollywood that's become obsessed with self-righteous crusades, such as the #MeToo movement, or with bemoaning the supposed lack of racial and gender diversity in movies.
Gervais said that he couldn't begin the show with a rundown of the celebrity deaths in 2019 because "when I saw the list of people who died, it wasn't diverse enough."
He then mocked the entertainment industry for being shamelessly transactional – despite its moralistic pretenses.
Apple roared into the TV game with "The Morning Show," a superb drama about the importance of dignity and doing the right thing—made by a company that runs sweatshops in China.
So, you say you're "woke," but the companies you work for, Apple, Amazon, Disney … If ISIS had a streaming service, you would be calling your agents.
Gervais also poked fun at the smug – yet clueless – way Hollywood talks down to everyone else.
"You're in no position to lecture the public about anything," he said. "You know nothing about the real world. Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg."
Gervais concluded his monologue by making an appeal for award recipients to drop the political lectures.
"Don't use it as a platform to make a political speech. You are in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world," he said.
What was particularly great about the Gervais monologue is that Hollywood was exposed on its own turf.
Of course, not everyone was pleased. Some in the media – the less-glamorous handmaiden of the Hollywood set – groused that it was inappropriate to mock celebrities, who are clearly having such a tough time right now.
"At the Beverly Hilton, where the three-hour-plus ceremony took place, the mood was already somber, thanks to an impeachment, the threat of war with Iran, and devastating bush fires in Australia," wrote Lorraine Ali, the Los Angeles Times' television critic. "The last thing anyone needed was for the smirking master of ceremonies to reprimand them for having hope, or taunt the room for trying to use their influence to change things for the better."
Maybe the speech wasn't for them. Maybe it was simply a comedic reminder to the entertainment industry that their talents are best put to use by sticking to entertaining, and that the country really is sick of their tedious and often mockable political sermons.
At the very least, it exposed a vapid Hollywood for what it is, while deflating the superficial virtue-signaling of hypocrites who use their platforms to lecture America and the world about their sins.
Perhaps, through mockery, this really is the beginning of the end of Hollywood's "Great Awokening."

Asmo Charger hit their goal in Indiegogo!
by Biz Chefs
Crowdfunding campaigns usually last 31 days, but Oulu-based startup-company Asmo Charger seems to be in a hurry. Within the first 9 hours after releasing, the new and intelligent mobile phone charger was successfully funded and it continues to attract customers in Indiegogo.com. At this point, someone would spread champagne all over the VIP-room but Asmo Saloranta, the inventor of Asmo Charger, keeps his focus on pushing the crowdfunding-project till the end.
Written: Janne Rautiainen
A large crowd of people were gathered in Business Kitchen Patio and finishing their meal. During the previous week there was an announcement that Asmo Charger will host a breakfast-event and tell some news about the future. And then Asmo Saloranta walked in front of people and proved that all the rumors were right. The company had started their second crowdfunding campaign.
Let us take a brief recap over what's going on. Everything started nearly two years ago when Asmo Saloranta was a student in Oulu Gamelab. One day his mother-in-law was visiting and she threw a question for him: Why don't you invent a charger, which doesn't catch a fire? 15 years ago her house was burnt down after a short circuit from a mobile phone charger. The question started to bother him repeatedly but one night he got the answer. During the next week he just took a tour in the Business Kitchen and told his idea of a energy saving and more fire-safe mobile charger to everyone. In the next two months the team was ready, the company was established and the negotiations with the future manufacturer were going on. And he also managed to even pitch the idea to investors from ice hole, but that's another story. There was also a crowdfunding campaign in Kickstarter.com, which was boosted by media all over the world and everyone were talking about the idea. However, suddenly the campaign didn't reach the goal.
At this point someone could have lost the faith, but only thing Asmo saw was the opportunity. "We got good visibility all over the world and we proved that there's a need for a product like this" he replied after the campaign. And during the following autumn the company received 100,000€ funding from Butterfly Ventures to manufacture the first set of chargers. At that point the funding was mostly secured for a while, but Asmo wanted to take the second turn in the crowdfunding-game. He started to plan a new campaign in Indiegogo.com and this time it paid off quite well. Now 435 customers have funded the project with 22,697€ in less than two days while the target was 10,000€. The media has also noticed this and Asmo's phone has been ringing constantly for hours.
One down and 30 more days to go!
But what is going to happen now when there's plenty of time left? While asking from Asmo what he is up to, he instantly tells his plans. "During the remaining 30 days we will put a lot of effort on reaching the North American markets", he says. And now this is possible while Asmo Charger's campaign is going on in Indiegogo.com! Chargers can be preordered from starting at $35 before the campaign ends in June 26 th 2015. There's plugs for EU, UK and US sockets and both Micro-USB and Apple Lighting -connections are available. All chargers are going to be manufactured in Finland and sent to customers during October 2015.

Q: Set GPU usage in Torch Machine Learning Framework currently I'm using Theano for machine learning, now I wanted to try out Torch.
In Theano there is an option to set flags for GPU Memory usage:
os.environ["THEANO_FLAGS"] = "mode=FAST_RUN, device=gpu,floatX=float32,lib.cnmem=0.9"
So Theano uses the set capacity of the GPU, here 90%. In Torch however a similar network uses around 30% GPU load.
Is there any way to set a higher GPU load in Torch similar to Theano?

A: Torch will use as much GPU memory as it needs based on it's standard allocator.
The amount of memory torch uses does not need to be pre-specified like the example you do in Theano.

Ghana-based data science accelerator Blossom Academy trains top students from several West African universities, equipping recent graduates with the necessary skills and resources needed to be a successful data scientist, and then connects them with African tech businesses. Jeph Acheampong, co-founder and CEO, answers our questions.
Blossom Academy is the first data science academy established in West Africa. The academy trains and pairs data science talent with tech businesses operating in Africa.
In order to foster sustainable capacity building in data analytics and machine learning, the training programme is founded on three pillars: competitive peer learning, project-based experience, and mentor-based learning.
Prior to founding Blossom Academy, I quit my job on Wall Street and resigned from my role as a founding member of a rotational savings platform based in the United States.
The money saved and lessons learned during my professional experiences were all allocated to making Blossom Academy successful. However, we quickly ran out of cash due to unforeseen costs. We were, however, able to get financial support from friends, which led to significant traction over the last year. Currently, we're in conversations with a few investors to raise seed capital.
We will primarily focus on growth in three areas: 1) Refine our curriculum to encompass other valuable skills such as data privacy and cybersecurity; 2) Expand our training programme to Nigeria, Kenya, and South Africa based on recent employer surveys; and 3) Pair our graduates to global tech businesses.
One risk is our inability to provide quality graduates with relevant data science skills. To mitigate this risk, we first identify the challenges of employer partners before designing our curriculum. Secondly, we incorporate a series of realistic projects into our training programme. For example, if a student is interested in finance, we will connect them to a fintech employer partner throughout the training programme to clean, analyse, and draw meaningful insights from the company's data, while building a data-driven portfolio. In return, the partner company commits to guaranteeing the student a job interview – if needed.
We've found that ambassador marketing works best for us. We first recruit highly-driven ambassadors in our cities of operation to help generate awareness about our programme. On the employer partnerships front, sharing updates on LinkedIn and referrals from current employer partners has been the most helpful strategy.
After collaborating with IBM Big Data University to provide courses during our initial recruitment process, we quickly realised the majority of applicants knew very little about data science. However, this did not deter one of our applicants, now a graduate, in the majority pool from going above and beyond. Bridget's tenacity, coupled with the resources provided by the academy, led her to be recognised at the SC18 conference in Dallas Texas, where she shared the recognition with students from universities such as University of Delaware, Duke University, and Stanford University. She also received a substantial monetary award from Intel for continuous education in data science anywhere in the world. Witnessing this impact has been added motivation to build the future of Africa.
7. Tell us about your biggest mistake, and what have you've learned from it?
During our first year of operations, the training programme was offered at no cost. However, this altruistic approach backfired because some of our students did not take the opportunity seriously. Our instructors spent more time motivating them as opposed to delivering the best training possible. We now realise having students contribute a minimal fee upon acceptance fosters better engagement.
Over the last few months, I've widely visited tech startups in East Africa. My observations uncovered a trend where sales professionals, marketers, and early-stage founders find it extremely difficult to reach decision makers, thus wasting precious time and company resources. The current solution today is to leverage relationships to get one's foot in the door. But what if you are new to a market and not as connected?
I believe this creates an excellent opportunity for a pan-African company database that professionals can leverage to find relevant information on decision makers, such as business email addresses and phone numbers. On the other hand, this creates an added opportunity to leverage an AI-powered vetting and matching process to ensure that decision-makers are provided personalised recommendations on businesses they may find the most value connecting with.

Q: errors when static and when not static (specific) I know the title doesn't say much, but I have a pretty specific problem that is difficult to describe:
I'm making an android app with Android Studio, and for one activity I have a list where the values that are stored in a json file will go.
For getting these values I use another class with a get() method which returns the values in an arraylist. The problem is that the IDE says 2 contrary statements: in the activity class it says that the get() method has to be static and in the other class it says that the get() method can't be static.
This is the code:
CompanySelector.java (the activity)
public class CompanySelector extends AppCompatActivity {
    ArrayList<String> companyList = CompanyStorage.get();
}

==> here it gives an error in CompanyStorage.get() and says that get() should be static.
CompanyStorage.java (the other class)
abstract class CompanyStorage extends Context {
    private ArrayList<String> companyList;

    protected CompanyStorage() throws JSONException {
        companyList = get();
    }

    ArrayList<String> get() throws JSONException {
        JSONObject companyData = new JSONObject();
        ArrayList<String> companyList = new ArrayList<>();

        // Open data.json and convert to JSONObject
        String json = OpenFileAsString("data.json");
        try {
            companyData = new JSONObject(json);
        } catch (JSONException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        // return json array as ArrayList
        if (companyData.getJSONArray("companies") != null) {
            for (int i=0;i<companyData.getJSONArray("companies").length();i++){
                companyList.add(companyData.getJSONArray("companies").getString(i));
            }
        }
        return companyList;
    }

    public String OpenFileAsString(String filename) {
        try {
            InputStream stream = getAssets().open( filename );
            int size = stream.available();

            byte[] bytes = new byte[size];
            stream.read(bytes);
            stream.close();

            return new String( bytes );

        } catch ( IOException e ) {
            Log.i("GuiFormData", "IOException: " + e.getMessage() );
        }
        return null;
    }

}

==> Here it says that if get() is static, OpenFileAsString() should also be static, but then it gives an error, because getAssets() can't be in a static method.
Does anyone know what I should do? I'm fairly new to Java and application design..

A: Try to put static at the get() and OpenFileAsString(String filename) methods header and use context.getAssets() instead of getAssets()

Ithaca Police Charge Woman With Assault, Saying She Punched 2 Officers on Commons in 'Chaotic' Scene

Ithaca Police arrested a woman on the Commons early Saturday morning, tackling her to the ground in front of a small crowd after they say she hit two officers in the head as they tried to detain another man.
As the Commons filled up with people walking home from bars shortly after last call at 1 a.m., officers on foot saw a man run across the Commons and knock another man to the ground by punching him in the face, Sgt. David Amaro said in a press release on Monday.
Police said they tried to detain the perpetrator, whom they identified as Cadji Furgeson, 26, of Ithaca, at which point a woman began "repeatedly striking" an officer in the head, Amaro said.
Amaro said the woman, who police identified as 22-year-old Rose Degroat, of Ithaca, then hit a second officer in the face.
Police said one officer had headaches and was treated by Bangs Ambulance and the other had cuts on his face and declined treatment.
A Sun reporter witnessed two officers grab Degroat from behind and push her to the ground as she screamed for them to stop and appeared to try to evade their grip and remain standing. A video of the officers taking Degroat to the ground was also posted on Instagram.
Once officers brought Degroat to her stomach on the ground near the Moonies Bar and Nightclub on the Commons, about eight people formed a crowd at the scene, some yelling at the officers to let Degroat go and others recording the incident on their phones.
The crowd stood about five feet away from three officers as one cuffed Degroat's hands behind her back. One woman recording the incident on her phone yelled that the police were hurting Degroat and told them to "give her some air." Another asked why an officer's knee was on the woman's head.
At one point, a man in the crowd yelled at the police twice to "go ahead" and shoot him, after which one officer took out a stun gun and pointed it at members of the crowd, shouting for them to "get back" and aiming the stun gun's red laser dot at the chest of the man and at least one other person, according to a video of the arrest recorded by The Sun.
In the Ithaca Police press release, Amaro described the scene as "chaotic" and wrote that "The incident caused numerous bystanders, most of whom were uninvolved in the original incident, to attempt various forms of interference in the officers' attempts to make the lawful arrests."
Police charged Degroat with two counts of felony attempted assault in the second degree and a misdemeanor count of resisting arrest. She was brought before Ithaca City Court on Saturday and released on her own recognizance, Amaro said. She is due back in city court on April 17.
After police took Degroat to a police car on Cayuga Street, they also handcuffed a bystander, 21-year-old Riley Johnson of Ithaca, whom they charged with a disorderly conduct violation. Police also charged Furgeson, whose surname they also spelled as Ferguson, with disorderly conduct.
Degroat said in a Facebook message to The Sun that she had not yet spoken with a lawyer and did not have any comment on the incident. Furgeson did not respond to a message seeking comment.
The Ithaca Police Benevolent Association said in a Facebook post: "Thankfully all our members are going to be okay after breaking up a fight on the commons putting themselves in harms way to prevent others from being injured."

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Provost Kotlikoff and VP Opperman on 'Being a Graduate Student in a Harvey Weinstein World at Cornell University'
By Opinion Department December 15, 2017
We are writing in regard to the recent guest column, "Being a Graduate Student in a Harvey Weinstein World at Cornell University," to emphasize that sexual harassment or coercion of any kind has no place at Cornell. The author is absolutely correct that graduate students and, indeed, all members of the Cornell community should be protected from sexual coercion and that academic success should never be linked to such pressures.
Cornell Title IX Investigations Draw National Attention, Reveal Concerns

Alternative to Tapestry and Speak About It, "What would be more effective is if LGBTRC, Women's Resource Center, A3C and other resource centers and identity groups could partner together and have a mandatory workshop during orientation week," Scott Ho '18 said.


On Tuesday a number of environmental groups appealed the air and water permits that have been approved for the proposed PolyMet copper-nickel mine.
The groups argue the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency ignored evidence that PolyMet intends to process more ore daily than called for in its air permit. They also argue the company's water permit improperly allows pollutants to be discharged to groundwater.
The groups include the Minnesota Center for Environmental Advocacy, Friends of the Boundary Waters Wilderness, Center for Biological Diversity, and the Sierra Club. WaterLegacy filed its own appeal.
PolyMet is hoping to become Minnesota's first copper-nickel mine.

Chile's Fernando González and Nicolás Massú defeated Germany's Nicolas Kiefer and Rainer Schüttler in the final, 6–2, 4–6, 3–6, 7–6(9–7), 6–4 to win the gold medal in Men's Doubles tennis at the 2004 Summer Olympics. It was Chile's first ever Olympic gold medal. Massú and González also won gold and bronze, respectively, in the singles competition. Germany won its third medal in four Games in the event. In the bronze medal match, Croatia's Mario Ančić and Ivan Ljubičić defeated India's Mahesh Bhupathi and Leander Paes, 7–6(7–5), 4–6, 16–14. It was Croatia's first medal in men's doubles since 1992.

The tournament held between 15 and 21 August at the Olympic Tennis Centre in Athens, Greece. There were 30 pairs from 24 nations, with the Belarusian pair and one of the Swedish pairs not starting. For the first time since tennis returned in 1988, nations could enter more than one pair; the limit was now two pairs (four players).

World No. 1 team Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan of the United States were the favorites for the title, but they were upset in the quarterfinals by González and Massú.

Background

This was the 12th appearance of men's doubles tennis. The event has been held at every Summer Olympics where tennis has been on the program: from 1896 to 1924 and then from 1988 to the current program. A demonstration event was held in 1968.

Mark Woodforde had retired after the 2000 Games, ending The Woodies partnership with Todd Woodbridge that had earned gold in 1996 and silver in 2000. Woodbridge played in his fourth Games, with partner Wayne Arthurs (tennis)—still a formidable pairing, and the number two seed in Athens. The new top team, however, was the American pair of Bryan brothers, Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan. 2000 gold medalist Daniel Nestor of Canada returned with a new partner, Frédéric Niemeyer.

Poland made its debut in the event. France made its ninth appearance in the event, matching the absent Great Britain for most of all nations.

Competition format
