Abstract: Let $1 \to F \to G \to T \to 1$ be a short exact sequence where F is parafree and T is infinite cyclic. We examine some properties of G when $F/F'$ is a free ZT-module. Here $F'$ is the commutator subgroup of F and ZT is the integral group ring of T. In particular, we show G is parafree and ${\gamma _n}F/{\gamma _{n + 1}}F$ is a free ZT-module for every $n \geqslant 1$ (where ${\gamma _n}F$ is the nth term of the lower central series of F).

Carousel has closed
This show has closed
Classic Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel arrives back on Broadway, with Waitress star Jessie Mueller starring alongside The Scottsboro Boys' Joshua Henry.
Adapted from Ferenc Molnar's play Liliom, Carousel is the tale of carousel barker Billy Bigelow and mill-worker Julie Jordan. After meeting at a funfair and losing their jobs, the pair fall in love. Throughout a turbulent relationship that ends in tragedy, hot-headed Billy must attempt to make amends and provide guidance to a daughter he cannot meet. With a story of redemption from beyond the grave at its heart, Carousel is set to a classic score including "You'll Never Walk Alone".
Carousel on Broadway stars Jessie Mueller as Julie and Joshua Henry as Billy. Mueller most recently starred as Jenna in hit musical Waitress, a role which earned her a Tony Award nomination for Best Actress in a Musical; she previously won in the category for Beautiful: The Carole King Musical.
Henry has appeared in The Scottsboro Boys, Hamilton and In The Heights, with nominations for the Tony and Drama Desk Awards. Other cast members include Lindsay Mendez as Carrie and John Douglas Thompson as Starkeeper.
The musical's book, music and lyrics mark the second collaboration between musical theater juggernauts Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein, whose other shows include Oklahoma! and The Sound of Music. The duo's shows and movie adaptations have garnered 34 Tony Awards, 15 Academy Awards and the Pulitzer Prize (South Pacific).
This revival is directed by Jack O'Brien (Hairspray) with choreography from Justin Peck and costume design from Ann Roth.
With heavy themes of domestic violence, fate and redemption, Carousel is a classic mix of musical and social commentary from Rodgers and Hammerstein. It plays at the Imperial Theatre from February 28 2018.
Fans of Rodgers and Hammerstein's socially perceptive musicals will want to grab tickets for this new revival of Carousel that's lent extra gravitas by its award-winning cast.

Q: How do I modify this REGEX to pick up all dates in the test string test_string = '''dated as of October 17, 2012 when we went caroling, dated as of December 21, 2011 when we ate bananas'''

import re
import calendar

months_full = '|'.join([month for month in calendar.month_name][1:])

pattern_1 = r'\b' + months_full + r'\s+\d{1,2},?\s+\d{4},?'
test_pattern = re.compile(pattern_1)
x = test_pattern.findall(test_string)

print x

>>>
['October', 'December 21, 2011']
>>>

I think my regex is asking
beginning at a word boundary
find any month (correctly spelled and capitalized
next require there to be one or more white spaces
followed by 1 or 2 digits
there might be one or zero commas next
followed by one or more white spaces
then there should be 4 digits
and it might end with a comma immediately adjacent to the last digit
Once I get dates I intend to validate them so I am not too worried about the case
January 1, 2999 cases of rum as if I can check to see if the date is in a valid range.
I did discover that when I replace the first month with December the regex returns both dates.  I have played around with  \b . and other variations but can't seem to get past this.
Any observations will be much appreciated

A: Your pattern doesn't work because you have forgotten to put the alternation with month names in a non capturing group (?:...)
An other notice:
It's a shame to load a module only to have the month names in english, when you can write them and optimise your pattern! Example:
pattern_1 = r'\b(?:(?:jan|febr)uary|ma(?:y|rch)|ju(?:ne|ly)|a(?:pril|ugust)|(?:octo|(?:sept|nov|dec)em)ber)\s+[0-9]{1,2},?\s+[0-9]{4},?'

A: You are very close!
Try:
import re
import calendar

test_string = '''dated as of October 17, 2012 when we went caroling, dated as of December 21, 2011 when we ate bananas'''
test_pattern = re.compile('|'.join(r'(?:\b%s\s+\d{1,2},\s+\d{4})' % month
                                       for month in calendar.month_name[1:]))
print test_pattern.findall(test_string)
# ['October 17, 2012', 'December 21, 2011']

Other comments:

*

*There is no need for the optional ,? at the end of your regex. It really does not validate a date any more that the first part of the regex.

*You may need to use the re.I for making case insensitive.

*You may need to use re.S to deal with a carriage return in a legitimate date like December 21,\n2011

*Use named capture groups to capture the month, day and year and then use datetime to validate the date.

Finding unique Father's Day gifts is a challenge. The traditional standbys of ties, socks and homemade pictures are still a good bet for Dad on his special day, but if you really want to put a surprised smile on his face, putting a little extra thought into your Father's Day gifts will get the reaction you're after.
Be crafty. Homemade Father's Day gifts created with love show how much you care. It's not about the end product; it's about the time, effort and affection that went into making it. Making homemade Father's Day gifts doesn't require any special skills, only thoughtfulness.
Give a custom-made present. Personalized Father's Day gifts show Dad that you cared enough to go out and make something especially for him. Give a personalized hat, shirt or coffee mug, or emblazon his name on a necktie. You can even spruce up an everyday necktie from off the store rack by adding some dyes and glitter.
If you want to go the extra mile and create a special Father's Day gift, let the kids make a unique present. Taking a plain white T-shirt and having the kids write their names and put their handprints on it is a perfect way to commemorate both Father's Day and the childhoods of your children. Other simple and inexpensive kids' Father's Day gifts include finger paintings, homemade cupcakes and hand-drawn pictures. You can find all sorts of ideas for fun, easy Fathers Day crafts online.
If you can't think of any Father's Day gifts to make at home, choosing a store-bought item is a convenient option. For example, if Dad is a sports nut, get him something that tips his hat to his favorite sportsman or team; if he's a workaholic, getting him something that will help his performance on the job is an apt way to show him how much his efforts are appreciated. No matter what you choose to give your dad on Father's Day, be sure you don't forget the most important gift of all – a great big hug with a side of "I love you."

Hawaiian Airlines flight lands safely after 'severe turbulence'
On Sunday morning, a US flight carrying 278 passengers and ten crew took off from Phoenix, Arizona, and was 30 minutes away from Honolulu, Hawaii when severe turbulence hit. Hawaiian Airlines Flight 35 landed safely, but some passengers had to be treated for injuries and others were taken to the hospital.
After the Hawaiian Airlines flight landed, the EMS and the American Medical Response said they responded to a "mass casualty emergency" at around 11am local time at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport.
The Hawaiian Airlines flight initially reported the turbulence around 10:35am Hawaii Standard Time, according to the US Federal Aviation Administration.
In an interview with Hawaii News, Passenger Kaylee Reyes said her mother had just returned to her seat when the turbulence began.
She was not able to fasten her safety belt before she "flew up and hit the ceiling", according to Ms Reye.
Thirty-six passengers were treated at the airport by paramedics and other emergency personnel.
It was then reported that 20 passengers were then transported to local hospitals.
Officials originally listed 11 people in serious condition while nine were listed as in stable condition.
Honolulu EMS has reported that the youngest passenger being treated at the hospital is a 14-month-old child.

More than 5,500 Lighting-Designer Listings Make Up National Lighting Bureau's "Lighting-Designer Directory"
New Expansion into Canada
SHEPHERDSTOWN, WV – The National Lighting Bureau (NLB) has launched NLB-TV with more than 200 videos comprising a collection that is likely to grow to 500 or more within a year, according to NLB Chair Cary S. Mendelsohn, CLMC. Mr. Mendelsohn volunteers his service to the NLB as the interNational Association of Lighting Management Companies' (NALMCO's) representative on the NLB board of directors. In his "day job," Mr. Mendelsohn is CEO of Chicago's Imperial Lighting Maintenance Company, which also is a Bureau sponsor. (All sponsors are listed below.)
In addition to other NLB sponsors' productions, NLB-TV comprises videos produced by the EdisonReport and by the NLB itself, including videos of each panel discussion held at the Bureau's most recent Annual Lighting Forums. NLB-TV also includes intriguing historical footage contributed by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), another Bureau sponsor.
As noted by NLB Executive Director John Bachner, access to NLB-TV is unrestricted and free of charge. "Our goal is to provide worthwhile service to the people who design, install, maintain, and depend on lighting to get the job done. Increasingly, that job is about far more than providing light to see by, as we learn more about lighting's role in health care and wellness."
The National Lighting Bureau is an independent, IRS-recognized educational foundation that has served as a trusted lighting-information source since 1976. The Bureau is able to provide its services to the public free of charge because of the generous funding of the organization's sponsors: professional societies, trade associations, labor unions, manufacturers, service providers, and agencies of the U.S. government, including: BIOS Lighting; Current, Powered by GE; Forest Lighting; Illuminating Engineering Society (IES); Imperial Lighting Maintenance Company; interNational Association of Lighting Management Companies (NALMCO); International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW); Lighting Controls Association (LCA);LumenOptix; Lutron Electronics Company, Inc.; Luxtech; National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA); National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA); OSRAM;U.S. General Services Administration; and ZLED Lighting.
Obtain more information about the Bureau by visiting its website (https://www.nlb.org/) or by contacting its staff at info@nlb.org. Information about sponsorship also is available there.

Europeans divided on Israel
A poll conducted in Europe reveals growing disconnect between governments and people over the policy on Israel.
by Daud Abdullah
The poll showed 53 per cent of the 7,045 Europeans polled view the siege of the Gaza Strip as illegal [GALLO/GETTY]
The Middle East is not the only region witnessing a growing disconnect between governments and people. In Europe, a major survey has shown that governments there have become increasingly out of tune with the views of their people on the conflict in Palestine.
This was one of the major findings of a poll carried out by the London-based polling institution ICM government and Social Research unit on behalf Al Jazeera Centre for Studies, the Middle East Monitor and the European Muslim Research Centre.
The survey, the first of its kind to exclusively focus on European perceptions of the conflict, was conducted in Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Netherlands and Britain.
Since its creation in 1948, Europeans have empathised with the state of Israel. They showered it with unlimited diplomatic, political and military assistance; including a nuclear capability, courtesy of the French. The survey reveals that there is now a distinct lack of appetite to support practises that are manifestly illegal, unfair and oppressive.
While European governments individually and collectively pay regular homage to Israeli democracy - they say it is the only democracy in the Middle East - their public is reluctant to do so. Thirty-four per cent of the 7,045 people polled believe Israel is not a democracy, while less than half, or 45 per cent, believe it is.
In Italy and Spain, a staggering 41 per cent believe Israel is not a democracy. By expressing the views they did, the European public appears to be saying to their governments; our loyalties are to the principles of democracy and not to career politicians who profess allegiance but act differently.
One striking reason for this indictment of Israeli democracy has been its "illegal" actions and gross disregard for international standards of conduct. Half of Europeans, 53 per cent view the siege of the Gaza Strip as illegal, 60 per cent said the 2008-09 ground invasion of the territory was illegal; while 64 per cent said Israel's attack on the Freedom Flotilla in May 2010 was illegal. The message emerging from the survey, it seems, is that future European support has to be earned and it would not be given gratis on the basis of pretence or partial adherence to international norms.
In a related matter, more than one-third of those polled (34 per cent) said that Jews with citizenship of a European country should not be allowed to serve in the Israeli army; this compares to only 17 per cent who said they should.
Israel as 'occupying power'
The shift taking place today is a rejection of the "war on terror" paradigm, which was cynically used as cover to deny Palestinians fundamental right to freedom. Europeans have, therefore, returned to the basic formula of occupied and occupier. The poll uncovered a better understanding of the nature of the Israeli occupation.
It showed that 49 per cent of respondents recognised Israel as the occupying power; 22 per cent said they did not know if it was. When the University of Glasgow conducted its study in Britain in 2001 it found that 71 per cent did not know that it was the Israelis who were occupying the territories.
Although the ICM survey reveals a marked improvement in understanding, it nonetheless demonstrates a clear lack of awareness of the situation, given the fact that there are many UN resolutions which explicitly refer to Israel as the Occupying Power. In reality, therefore, more Europeans should be aware of the 2004 the International Court of Justice advisory opinion which says that "Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, are illegal and an obstacle to peace and to economic and social development".
Another interesting revelation from the survey relates to the issue of criticism of Israel. While 50 per cent of respondents disagreed with the view that criticism of Israel makes a person anti-Semitic, only 12 per cent said criticising Israel does make a person anti-Semitic.
This particular result will, no doubt, strike at the heart of the claims made by the pro-Israel lobbyists and the likes of former Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar who equates criticism of Israel with anti-Semitism.
Clearly pressured by an aggressive pro-Israeli lobby, several European governments, including Britain, have taken steps to change their laws on universal jurisdiction. The survey, however, showed that a clear majority, 58 per cent, oppose changing the law to make it easier for those accused of war crimes to visit Europe, only 10 per cent agree to make such changes. In Britain, only 7 per cent support the change.
This was the lowest recorded percentage in Europe. It should be noted that 2,000 people were polled in the UK with a margin error of 2 per cent. Yet the incumbent government is determined to press ahead with this unpopular policy. The resounding message here is that justice is not the right or monopoly of any particular people, religion or country. It is a universal value.
Hamas inclusion
One final outstanding revelation relates to the inclusion or exclusion of Hamas (the Islamic Resistance Movement) from peace talks. Although the European Union took a decision in 2003 to place Hamas on its list of "terrorist" organisations and preclude it from any negotiations, 45 per cent of those polled said it should be included.
In Britain, where former foreign secretary Jack Straw had played a pivotal role in the proscription, 44 per cent believe Hamas should be included in the political process with only 19 per cent saying the movement should be excluded. Yet again, on a critically important issue, European governments appear to be in one valley and their people in another.
In recent years Israel has invested inordinate sums of human and material resources to improve its public image in Europe. While the ICM survey showed that its European lobby has been influential in political as well as the media circles, this has not been transformed into public support.
The underlying cause for this setback is the growing public perception of Israel as a state which seeks to progress and prosper through the subjugation of another people. The European public today sees things differently. Unlike their governments, they believe their own fulfilment would only be achieved through recognition of the basic human dignity and freedom of all other people, including the Palestinians.

  # Uses english word patterns to guess the number of syllables. A single module
  # method is made available, +syllables+, which, when passed an english word,
  # will return the number of syllables it estimates are in the word.
  # English orthography (the representation of spoken sounds as written signs) is
  # not regular. The same spoken sound can be represented in multiple different
  # ways in written English (e.g. rough/cuff), and the same written letters
  # can be pronounced in different ways in different words (e.g. rough/bough).
  # As the same series of letters can be pronounced in different ways, it is not
  # possible to write an algorithm which can always guess the number of syllables
  # in an english word correctly. However, it is possible to use frequently
  # recurring patterns in english (such as "a final -e is usually silent") to
  # guess with a level of accuracy that is acceptable for applications like
  # syllable counting for readability scoring. This module implements such an
  # algorithm.
  # This module is inspired by the Perl Lingua::EN::Syllable module. However, it
  # uses a different (though not larger) set of patterns to compensate for the
  # 'special cases' which arise out of English's irregular orthography. A number
  # of extra patterns (particularly for derived word forms) means that this module
  # is somewhat more accurate than the Perl original. It also omits a number of
  # patterns found in the original which seem to me to apply to such a small number
  # of cases, or to be of dubious value. Testing the guesses against the Carnegie
  # Mellon Pronouncing Dictionary, this module guesses right around 90% of the
  # time, as against about 85% of the time for the Perl module. However, the
  # dictionary contains a large number of foreign loan words and proper names, and
  # so when the algorithm is tested against 'real world' english, its accuracy
  # is a good deal better. Testing against a range of samples, it guesses right
  # about 95-97% of the time.

From Pure Water to Better Building Materials, Cleantech Open Awards Newest Wave of Green Thinkers
Sustainability made simple
Jaymi Heimbuch JaymiHeimbuch

The Cleantech Open, one of the most prestigious events for start-ups in the industry, has announced the winners of this year's competition. The winners earn the sort of recognition from venture capitalists that most start-ups only dream of. The winners this year highlight some of the best ideas of the year, and we are likely to see them in the marketplace in the near future. Check out who they are -- from algae-based water treatment to super-light building materials. The National Prize winner is Puralytics, which uses light (from LEDs or natural sunlight) to create processes that totally remove contaminants from the environment without any wastewater or chemicals.
Mark Owen, CEO of Puralytics, said, "Water quality is a growing problem in our world today, and removing organic contaminants is the greatest unmet need. We are excited that the Cleantech Open committee recognizes, with us, this important business, environmental, and societal problem. This award is great validation to our team and our investors, and will help us move forward to the next level in our business. Through the Cleantech Open we've already met customers, channel partners, investors, and advisors, and this National Award has put these new networks in overdrive."
Runners-up for the National Grand Prize included OnChip Power of Boston for its high-efficiency, miniaturized power-supply technology, and EarthClean of Minneapolis for its non-toxic and readily biodegradeable fire suppressant.
Here is OnChip Power:
And here is EarthClean:
There is also a 2010 National Sustainability Award that went to BioVantage Resources for its algae-based wastewater treatment technology; and a 2010 Global Cleantech Open Ideas Award which went to Abeo of Denmark for its patented Super-Light Structure technology that aims to reduce the energy and materials needed in building construction.
Congratulations to the winners -- we're sure this won't be the last time we hear of you.

На этой странице вы можете бесплатно читать реферат на английском языке: Newspapers.
Nowadays we don't subscribe to any newspapers or magazines. Some years ago we subscribed to some newspapers, for example "Moscovsky komsomolets". It is, I think, the most popular newspaper at russian people. It deserved its fame as a newspaper, which writes about actual things about our politics and pop stars. For first time journalists were trying to write only truth but after some years reading it we understood that "Komsomolka" is classified as "yellow press". The concept "yellow press" was led in America in 20 –Th years of our century and means a kind of press which writes not to tell something to his reader but only to be bought by him. That's why they don't pay much attention to the truthfulness of that information what they print, just the other way about they try to create something unusual, what is often absolutely wrong and they are doing that with the sole purpose of compel reader to bye there newspaper. As for me, I like better publications, which consider their reader & would never admit that in their publications, would be something wrong. I think that reader must trust in what he's reading, but it doesn't mean that I don't want "yellow press" to exist, I think that we always must have possibility to make a choice what to read, and it's very important to choose what to read.
That's why we renounced from "MK". Now we don't subscribe to any newspaper, we like better to bye at the newsstand anything what we would like to. Also we don't subscribe to any newspapers because they were often stolen from our mailbox.
Usually we bye some interesting magazines and every member of our family has its own favorite kind of reading. For example, my father likes better economics and political reading, that's why he likes better to bye something that is near this theme, for example magazine "Dengi" or "Profil". My mother doesn't like to read any newspapers because she doesn't trust to any of them but she byes smth to read while going to her work by metro, usually it's "Novaya gazeta" or "Komsomolskaya pravda".
Now I'll tell you about TV. Usually I don't watch TV because I don't have much time to spend time with it. But I have to watch smth while having dinner and supper. Often it's a film "Sliders", it's a fantastic film about a group of young people travelling through parallel worlds. Sometimes it's very interesting to watch it. Also I like to watch a cartoon "Beavis & But-head " which tells about two American teenagers. It is a very funny cartoon and I like to watch it while having breakfast.
Also sometimes, when some interesting movie is on I watch it.


ISLAMABAD, 7 September 2010 (UNHCR) – The UN refugee agency has issued shelter supplies to more than 90,000 families as the agency works to meet the needs of people left homeless amidst Pakistan's on-going monsoon-flooding.
In the last five weeks UNHCR has issued more than 48,000 all-weather family tents and 165,000 sheets of plastic tarpaulin sufficient to shelter more than 748,000 people as it works with partner agencies to rush relief aid to some of the millions of people made homeless by the floods.
Continued flooding in many areas of southern Pakistan is creating new challenges for relief efforts. Authorities ordered the evacuation of parts of western Sindh Province over the weekend as flood waters engulfed ommunities in Dadu District.
"Pakistan remains in the midst of a massive humanitarian crisis as flooding continues across vast areas," said Mengesha Kebede, UNHCR representative to Pakistan.
UNHCR has diverted 10,000 plastic tarpaulins to Dadu from Sukkur, elsewhere in Sindh Province to respond to shelter urgent needs of thousands of newly displaced people. It sent an emergency team including a site planner to the area on Sunday to help local authorities plan for temporary camps to shelter displaced people. Additional items are being sent to Sukkur to help meets needs there.
Elsewhere in Pakistan, some 2 million people are in need of assistance in Balochistan, Pakistan's poorest province. A UNHCR team reports that Jaffarabad city in the east of the province remains under 6-7 feet of water.
Across Pakistan more than 5,000 school buildings and make-shift open air encampments are currently home to more than 1.3 million displaced people. As flooding in some areas engulfs new communities, the bloated rivers are forming massive stagnate lakes. Based on the 2007 floods that remained for up to year, many displaced people may not be able to return home until next year.
"Shelter, water and sanitation needs are significant in many of the make-shift camps, as well as medical aid and food needs," UNHCR's Kebede said. "We are also receiving some alarming reports of sexual harassment in temporary sites as many women and children are alone since many men remain back in their home areas monitoring property and livestock.
More than 1.25 million homes are reported as damaged or destroyed throughout Pakistan.
UNHCR is seeking $120 million to support shelter needs and provide family kits of cooking materials, bedding, sanitary items, jerry cans, buckets and other goods for 2.1 million people. The agency expects to increase its funding appeal in the coming days as assessments indicate more help is needed.
The UN refugee agency has so far spent more than $53 million on various relief items and will airlift 100,000 mosquito nets from its regional stockpile in Dubai this week.

When you mention Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Sections 6055 and 6056 to many multiemployer health plan administrators and even contributing employers, they first respond, "We have a whole year before we have to address those regulations!" The second thing that you may hear is that the contributing employers are not responsible for any reporting associated with IRC Section 6055 or 6056; rather it is the multiemployer plan sponsors that must complete the task. Hearing both statements reinforces the complexity and misconceptions surrounding the latest mandates and responsibilities for multiemployer plans associated with the Affordable Care Act's (ACA) latest dip into tax regulations.
The ACA requires two types of reports under Sections 6055 and 6056 of the IRC as a result of the regulations issued by the IRS in March, 2014. The first report requires that employers, who provide "minimum essential coverage" (MEC) under IRC Section 6055, report on that coverage to every responsible individual that enrolls him or herself as well as his/her dependents in health care (Form 1095-B). This Form 1095-B will be sent to employees similarly to the way that they receive W-2 Forms. Once an employee (or a dependent that is covered under the employee's insurance) can produce this Form 1095-B, they will be exempt from the ACA's individual mandate tax. In other words, the Form 1095-B is proof that a taxpayer has qualified health insurance. This reporting requirement would be the responsibility of the Plan and in most cases with multiemployer plans, the Board of Trustees would be responsible for accumulating data for all of the months that employees are covered, along with the Forms 1095-B and sending them to the IRS, with a Form 1094-B for transmittal. A checklist of items that must be included on the informational statements sent to employees and the IRS is clarified in the regulations. The challenge may come to multiemployer plan sponsors once they endeavor to obtain all of this information needed on the 1095-B form which may be found at http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1095b.pdf.
The second report, with Forms 1094-C and 1095-C filed with the IRS in compliance with IRC Sections 6055 and 6056, determines whether a large employer (more than 50 employees) owes tax to the IRS under IRC Section 4980H for failing to provide affordable health care coverage that provides minimum value to all of its full-time employees. This burden of proof placed on employers is known as the "employer shared responsibility" (ESR). This confirmation, that a multiemployer plan provides the required level of coverage to all full-time employees, must also be sent to full-time employees in the form of an annual statement, a Form 1095-C, just like the annual W-2's and 1095-B statements.
This is where the ESR report (and who should file it) complexity comes into play for multiemployer health and welfare plans. It is the responsibility of the contributing employer to file their own reports; however, employers would need to obtain the proper information regarding their full-time employees coverage under the multi-employer plan to do so. Alternatively, the plan sponsor may prepare the ESR reports on behalf of the contributing employers. However, the plan sponsor may only file the reports for employees who are members covered under a collective bargaining group. The contributing employer must file reports for non-bargaining employees. Therefore, both multi-employer plan sponsors AND contributing employers must file Forms 1095-C and send statements as 1094-C when there are both bargaining and non-bargaining employees in a multiemployer plan.
How long does a multiemployer plan have to get all of this data together if they take on the task for contributing employers? What are the deadlines to get statements sent to members and reports sent to the IRS to avoid significant penalties? Remember, all of this data applies to the 2015 calendar year. In regards to the 1094-C and 1095-B statements sent to applicable employees, they must reach such employees by January 31, 2015. Additionally, the MEC and ESR reports, described above, must meet a filing deadline of February 29, 2016 if filed by mail and by March 31, 2016 if filing electronically.
Will plan sponsors, administrators and contributing employers have sufficient time to get their existing software lined up for IRC Sections 6055 and 6056 reports? Should Boards of Trustees charge contributing employers for keeping these records even when they are not fully required by law to do so? Will multi-employer plans be subject to liability if the contributing employers fail to provide them with accurate information regarding covered employees and full-time classifications? Understanding the reports to be filed with the IRS and sent to plan members is a good start to answering these types of questions for multiemployer plans.

Q: Cannot read property 'run' of undefined discord js There was a post for this but it didn't seem to fix my problem. I'm writing a simple discord.js program and when I created a new command called forceverify, it gave the error "Cannot read property 'run' of undefined"

main.js:
const Discord = require('discord.js');

const client = new Discord.Client();

let fetch = require('node-fetch');

const prefix = '!'

const fs = require('fs');

client.commands = new Discord.Collection();

const commandFiles = fs.readdirSync('./commands/').filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));
for (const file of commandFiles) {
    const command = require(`./commands/${file}`);

    client.commands.set(command.name, command);
}

client.once('ready', () => {
    console.log('Loaded');
})

client.on('message', message => {
    if (!message.content.startsWith(prefix) || message.author.bot) return;

    const args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).split(/ +/);
    const command = args.shift().toLowerCase();

    if (command === 'help') {
        client.commands.get('help').execute(message, args, Discord);
    } else if (command === 'verify') {
        client.commands.get('verify').execute(message, args, Discord);
    } else if (command === 'forceverify') {
        client.commands.get('forceverify').run(message, args, Discord);
    }
})

client.on('guildMemberAdd', member => {
    const welcomeChannel = client.channels.cache.find(ch => ch.name === 'member-log');

    if (!welcomeChannel) {
        console.log('No channel was found');
    }

    welcomeChannel.send(`Welcome!`);

client.login('The token is there');

forceverify.js
const { DiscordAPIError } = require("discord.js");
const fetch = require("node-fetch");

const packageData = require("../package.json");

module.exports = {
  name: 'verify',
  description: "Verify yourself to get access to the server",
  execute(message, args, Discord) {
    if (message.member.roles.cache.has('805210755800367104')) {
      const clientUser = client.users.fetch(args[1]);
      let myRole = message.guild.roles.cache.get("805531649131151390");

      fetch(`https://api.sk1er.club/player/${args[0]}`)
        .then(res => res.json())
        .then(({ player }) => {
          clientUser.member.setNickname(player.displayname).catch(console.error);
        })
        .catch(err => console.log(err));
    } else {
      message.channel.reply("You don't have sufficient permissions.");
    }
  }
}

Every other command works properly but for some reason, this one simply doesn't work. I tried what the other question said to do (which is add .execute to module.exports or change .execute to .run) neither worked probably because it simply can't find the file (everything was spelled correctly)

A: The export from forceverify.js has the name verify but it should be forceverify. So, the forceverify command isn't registered and client.commands.get('forceverify') returns undefined.
// commands/forceverify.js

module.exports = {
  name: 'forceverify',
  description: 'Force verify yourself to get access to the server',
  execute(message, args, Discord) {
    // do stuff
  }
}

And you should call the execute function when invoking the command.
client.commands.get('forceverify').execute(message, args, Discord)

You can refactor your code to simplify the command invocation code.
client.on('message', (message) => {
  if (!message.content.startsWith(prefix) || message.author.bot) {
    return
  }

  const args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).split(/ +/)
  const command = args.shift().toLowerCase()

  if (!client.commands.has(command)) {
    return
  }

  client.commands.get(command).execute(message, args, Discord)
})


I appreciate it when Dahlia Lithwick writes more often for Slate Magazine. It's hard arguing that Liberals lack any fundamental gravamen or intellectual perspicacity without compelling, in print, visual evidence. She entitled her 22 March missive "It's Not About the Law, Stupid…. Next week's health care argument before the Supreme Court is all about optics, politics, and public opinion." In so doing, she just summed up her entire contribution as a legal analyst for Slate Magazine. Mention the word irony to Dahlia Lithwick, and she's liable to tell you to iron your own [expletive] dress shirt. She is woman, and you can hear her pseudo-sapient roar!
Lithwick seems particularly miffed that anyone would imply that Individual Mandates could run afoul with the boring, stodgy and out-of-date United States Constitution. She displays her Aristotelian flair for reasoning below.
She then offers up a properly shamanistic bow to the Commerce Clause Cargo Cult. She mentioned the one paragraph of the Constitution still taught in the modern law school without a compulsory condescending sneer.
The law is a completely valid exercise of Congress' Commerce Clause power, and all the conservative longing for the good old days of the pre-New Deal courts won't put us back in those days as if by magic.
So get with the pogram, oops, I mean program you silly conservatives. Who could possibly believe ObamaCare was a constitutional overreach? Lithwick continues with an ongoing appeal to authority. You see such and such a "CONSERVATIVE" jurist grumbled that ObamaCare probably drags itself coughing and sputtering across the finish line as constitutional. The science is settled you ignorant Tea-Bagger Hobbits. Go back to Middle-Earth and let the grown-ups like Nancy Pelosi administer the laws that they voted for without comprehending or even entirely reading.
Other liberals appeal to the boogeyman. Michael Kinsley sets us up to play The Race Card if the Supreme Court fails to properly obey the liberal Zeitgeist.
Ever since Wickard v. Filburn (1942), with only a couple of minor exceptions, the courts have upheld the use of federal power under the Commerce Clause, which gives the federal government the authority to "regulate commerce." Even the 1964 Civil Rights Act is considered constitutional as a regulation of commerce.….Maybe the federal government's authority under the Commerce Clause is much narrower. Maybe that authority doesn't extend to requiring individual citizens to have health insurance or pay a fine. But if so, it is not only the future of Obamacare that will suddenly be shaky. Every piece of legislation for about the last 70 years that rested on the Commerce Clause will suddenly be up for grabs. This includes the Civil Rights Act. It includes laws protecting the environment and consumers.
Having failed to mention the Klan or Senator Bilbo once, Kinsley had to throw !Civil Rights! into his scare piece twice. Everything the government has ever done through The Commerce Clause could now be open to challenge. I hear they paid for D-Day and The Inchon Landing with the Commerce Clause. Repeal ObamaCare today, and your little grandkids will be licking lead paint chips off their Chinese toys tomorrow! Your are instructed to be very afraid.
What I think happened is exactly what Speaker Pelosi was describing. "We have to pass the bill to find out what is in it." Now the Supreme Court has this detestable sick man of postmodern constitutional overreach on the diagnosis table. Having seen what is in it; they are trying to decide whether they should chain-saw out a few of the more obvious cancer tumors or put it out of its own convoluted misery.
So Lithwick and Kinsley roll to disbelieve that the US Supreme Court could ever doubt the constitutionality of The Affordable Care and Patient Protection Act. Who could possibly be that crazy? This court case, like the 2010 midterm election, is all just an illusion that will go away. The practical people will reassert control, the Commerce Clause holds sway over all and the ignorant hicks will just shut up and go back to sleep. It could happen. Let's just hope it couldn't happen here in America.
*-It's almost like these people are crazy enough to view their JDs as something other than a license to steal without consequence. How whack-job is that?!

Rising Unbeaten Heavyweight Michael Coffie Battles Former Title Challenger Gerald Washington Saturday, July 31 from Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey in FOX PBC Fight Night Main Event & On FOX Deportes
TFJ BOXING 24 Jun 2021 Professional Boxing
New Jersey's Own Vito Mielnicki Jr. Rematches James Martin
in Co-Main Event
Unbeaten Prospect Joey Spencer Faces Dan Karpency Kicking Off Broadcast at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT
Tickets on Sale Tomorrow, Thursday, June 24 at 12 p.m. ET!
NEWARK, N.J. (June 23, 2021) – Rising unbeaten heavyweight Michael Coffie will square off against former world title challenger Gerald "El Gallo Negro" Washington in the 12-round main event of FOX PBC Fight Night and on FOX Deportes Saturday, July 31 from Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.
Welterweight prospect and New Jersey-native Vito Mielnicki Jr. will battle James Martin in an eight-round rematch in the co-main event, as Mielnicki looks to avenge the first loss of his career. Kicking off the broadcast at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT, unbeaten prospect Joey Spencer takes on Dan Karpency in an eight-round battle.
Tickets for the live event, which is promoted by TGB Promotions, are on sale tomorrow, Thursday, June 24 at 12 p.m. ET and can be purchased through Ticketmaster.com.
"Michael Coffie has risen up the heavyweight rankings quickly and will look to take another big step when he faces the always dangerous Gerald Washington live on FOX on Saturday, July 31," said Tom Brown, President of TGB Promotions. "In the co-main event, the fans at Prudential Center will be in for a treat as New Jersey's Vito Mielnicki Jr. steps right back into the ring seeking revenge against James Martin, after Martin spoiled his perfect record in April. Adding in the return of powerful prospect Joey Spencer, and this card is full of intriguing fights from top to bottom."
A Marine Corps veteran who picked up boxing after returning from overseas, Coffie (12-0, 9 KOs) quickly impressed in amateur tournaments enough to earn sparring assignments with Deontay Wilder and Adam Kownacki. The 35-year-old was born in the Bronx, but now fights out of Brooklyn. Coffie broke through in 2020 by stopping previously unbeaten Luis Pena in the fifth round of their August matchup before earning a TKO over Joey Abell in November. Coffie added a highlight-reel knockout over previously unbeaten Darmani Rock in January of this year.
"This is going to be a really good fight," said Coffie. "It's a fight I need to get me moving in the right direction. I've been wanting to fight Washington for a while now. He's only been beat by top level guys, and this is a way to prove that I belong in that class. It's amazing to be headlining on FOX. This is a 'no guts, no glory' kind of fight. I have to take advantage of this opportunity in a step-up fight."
Washington (20-4-1, 13 KOs) is a six-foot-six heavyweight contender who was a former college football standout at the University of Southern California and a U.S. Navy veteran. Born in San Jose, California, Washington most recently lost a contest against former heavyweight champion Charles Martin in February 2020. Prior to that fight, Washington had delivered a knockout of veteran contender Robert Helenius in July 2019. Washington was unbeaten in his first 19 pro fights before dropping his world title challenge to Deontay Wilder in February 2017.
"I'm real excited to be back in the ring and back on FOX," said Washington. "This is another major opportunity for me and I'm going to do everything in my power to fully capitalize on it. Michael Coffie is a good fighter. I like what I've seen from him so far. Not to mention, we're both veterans. I'm looking forward to this fight and I expect fireworks. I believe my experience will carry me to victory. "
Representing Roseland, New Jersey, Mielnicki (8-1, 5 KOs) will look to bounce back after losing by decision to Martin in April on FOX. The 19-year-old began turning heads during an exceptional amateur career where he compiled a 147-22 record and was named the Most Outstanding Boxer of the 2011 Junior National Golden Gloves amongst many accolades before turning pro. Mielnicki was able to add four victories to his ledger in 2020 and he kicked off his 2021 campaign with a knockout of Noe Lopez in February on FOX.
"I believe everything happens for a reason and everyone has their own path," said Mielnicki. "James Martin was the better man that night in our first fight, and I know what to expect from him come July 31. You won't see a young prospect doing what I'm doing, making a rematch only four months after my first career loss, in my hometown and in front of my family and friends. Expect nothing but fireworks on July 31. I can't wait to show the world why I'm different! Tune in and get your tickets now."
The 24-year-old Martin (7-2) scored a career-best victory in upsetting the previously unbeaten Mielnicki in April. Martin first turned pro in 2017 and won his first four fights to begin his career. Fighting out of Philadelphia, Martin has won three of his last four showdowns dating back to late 2019, including dropping a decision to unbeaten prospect Xander Zayas in February.
"I am going for the knockout this time," said Martin. "You will see me fight better. I feel I have the advantage, because I gave him his first loss, and he will always have that in the back of his head. I don't think that he can bring anything different in the rematch."
The 21-year-old Spencer (12-0, 9 KOs) turned pro in February 2017 and immediately caught the eye of fans and pundits with his combination of speed, power and athleticism. Following an impressive 2020 campaign which included a KO victory over Shawn West in August, the Linden, Michigan native kicked off 2021 with a first-round TKO over Isiah Seldon in January on FOX. Spencer will continue his march toward world title contention against Adah, Pennsylvania's Karpency (9-3-1, 4 KOs).
"I can't wait to get in the ring on July 31," said Spencer. "I'm training hard to become the first person to knock out Karpency. I'm going to bring the fight for the fans like I always do and give everyone watching a great show."
"I'm excited to fight one of boxing's top prospects in Joey Spencer and I'm having a great training camp leading up to fight night," said Karpency. "He's an excellent fighter, but make no mistake, I'm coming to win on July 31. I'm a boxer-puncher and I can rely on either style. We're going to adjust to what we see in the ring and take it from there. I'm grateful for this opportunity and I'm planning to make the most of it."

Aiming for the top
Floyd County High School's girls varsity basketball team plays Stonewall Jackson High School this afternoon in the semi-finals of the Virginia High School League state tourney in Richmond. For seniors like Adrienne Womack (above left), this is a last chance to win the state title that has eluded them for the last two years. I'll be shooting both stills and video of the game today and, hopefully, the Saturday championship final which well could be against Floyd's old rival Gate City. (Photo from last year's semi-final game against Gate City)

Q: creating pure web component from react components i am trying to build web components from react components, it is all working fine, but there are two problems i am trying to solve:

*

*Is there a way to convert such web components to pure web component (using webpack, transpile or some other way), so that react and other dependencies are not bundled?

*Is there a way to just include the required portion of dependencies or it is all/none only, and have to use external setting of webpack to use host's version?

thanks

A: If you're looking to do this manually, the answer from Harshal Patil is the way to go. I also wanted to point out a library that I helped create, react-to-webcomponent. It simplifies this process and seamlessly supports React 16-18.

A: For the first question, there is no direct way to convert React component into a Web Component. You will have to wrap it into a Web Component Class:
export function MyReactComponent() {
  return (

      Hello world

  );
}

class MyWebComponent extends HTMLElement {

  constructor() {
    super();
    // Do something more
  }

  connectedCallback() {

    // Create a ShadowDOM
    const root = this.attachShadow({ mode: 'open' });

    // Create a mount element
    const mountPoint = document.createElement('div');

    root.appendChild(mountPoint);

    // You can directly use shadow root as a mount point
    ReactDOM.render(<MyReactComponent />, mountPoint);
  }
}

customElements.define('my-web-component', MyWebComponent);

Of course, you can generalize this and create a reusable function as:
function register(MyReactComponent, name) {
  const WebComponent = class extends HTMLElement {
    constructor() {
      super();
      // Do something more
    }

    connectedCallback() {

      // Create a ShadowDOM
      const root = this.attachShadow({ mode: 'open' });

      // Create a mount element
      const mountPoint = document.createElement('div');

      root.appendChild(mountPoint);

      // You can directly use shadow root as a mount point
      ReactDOM.render(<MyReactComponent />, mountPoint);
    }
  }

  customElements.define(name, MyWebComponent);
}

register(MyReactComponent, 'my-web-component');

Same register function can be now re-used across all the components that you want to expose as web components. Further, if your component accepts props that should be passed, then this function can be changed to accept third argument as array of string where each value would be registered as a setter for this component using Object.define. Each time a setter is called, you can simply call ReactDOM.render again.
Now for the second question, there are multiple scenarios with what you are trying to do.

*

*If you are bundling application and loading dependencies like React or others using CDN, then Webpack externals is a way to go. Here you will teach Webpack how to replace import or require from the global environment where app will run.

*If you are bundling a library which you intend to publish to NPM registry for others to use in their applications, then you must build your project using library target configuration. Read more about authoring libraries here.

Bundling for libraries is slightly trickier as you will have to decide what will be your output format (common.js, ES Modules or UMD or Global or multiple formats). The ideal format is ES Module if you are bundling for browser as it allows better tree shaking. Webpack previously did not support Module format and has recently started supporting it. In general, I recommend Webpack for applications and Rollup.js for libraries.

A: React is not a library made to build native web-components.
Writing web-components by hand is not the best option neither as it won't handle conditions, loops, state change, virtual dom and other basic functionalities out of the box.
React, Vue Svelte and other custom libraries certainly have some pros while native web-components have many other advantages like simplicity of ecosystem and being ported by browsers and W3C.
Some libraries that will help you write native web-components in a modern and handy way:

*

*Lego that is  alightweight, native and full-featured in a Vue style.

*Nativeweb lightweight and raw web-components

*ElemX a proof-of-concept that binds native web-component to ElemX functionalities.

If you really wanted to wrap a React component into a native web component, you could do something like:
class MyComponent extends HTMLElement {
  constructor() {
    this.innerHTML = '<MyReactComponent />'
  }
}

customElements.define('my-component', MyComponent)

And use it in your HTML page <my-component />

A: You can use remount library

/** Main.jsx */

import React from 'react'
import App from './App'
import { define } from 'remount';

define({'react-counter':  App},
    {
    attributes: ['defaultValue'],
    shadow:false
})

/** App.jsx */

import React from "react";
import Counter from "./components/Counter.jsx";

function App({defaultValue}) {
  return (

Counter Component

      <Counter defaultValue={defaultValue}/>

  )
}

export default App;

<!DOCTYPE html>

    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <link rel="icon" type="image/svg+xml" href="/vite.svg" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <title>Vite + React</title>

    <react-counter defaultValue="5"></react-counter>


The heartworm life cycle begins when a mosquito bites an infected animal and ingests tiny heartworm larvae along with the animal's blood. Coyotes, wolves, foxes, and ferrets can also develop heartworm disease in addition to dogs and cats. Next, the larvae develop into an infective stage inside the mosquito. When a heartworm disease-carrying mosquito bites your pet, it transmits the larvae that develop for approximately two months in your pet's tissue. Afterwards, developing and mature adult heartworms can be found in the bloodstream, heart, and lungs. They can also produce tiny heartworm larvae that is released into the blood and is picked up by mosquitoes who repeat the process again.
Heartworm disease is serious and potentially fatal in pets. Worms can grow up to a foot long and live in your pet's heart and lungs. Signs of heartworm infection includes coughing, difficulty breathing, and lethargy. Some pets may not show signs of the disease. Treatment of heartworm disease is difficult. In cats, there is no approved treatment. Prevention is easy. We recommend a once monthly heartworm preventative medication for dogs and cats regardless of their lifestyle.

Imagini™ Gift finder is unlike many others in that it uses pictures to find out what the person you looking for might be interested in. The downside is that its in the UK and the links to the stores are in the UK. But some of the stuff they come up with is interesting and cool.
And, after I'd run through the quiz phase for my wife, showed her a couple of the items it came up with and all three were hits. Anecdotal? Sure, but its good anecdotal.

Şeref () ist eine der vier ethischen Kategorien, die für das Wertgefüge in der traditionell-islamisch-türkischen Kultur von zentraler Bedeutung sind. Der Begriff steht für die persönliche Würde des einzelnen Individuums; darüber hinaus gestaltet er die Beziehungen eines Haushaltes zu anderen Haushalten.

Die Islamwissenschaftlerin J. Aumüller führt aus, dass im Rahmen von ethnischen Grenzen diesem Ehrbegriff auch eine konstruktive Funktion für eine friedvolle Kooperation zwischen verschiedenen Gruppierungen beigemessen wird. Während die Beziehungen innerhalb der Familie hierarchisch geordnet seien, stelle der Ehrbegriff außerhalb der Familie eine Gleichheit der Männer her und trägt zur Wahrung der Integrität und Würde des Einzelnen bei. Die Ehre des Mannes sei das Kapital oder die Gabe zur Herstellung eines gesellschaftlichen Gleichgewichts, und das Verhältnis der Männer sei wiederum geprägt durch den Gabentausch. Gabe und Gegengabe in den Tauschbeziehungen dürften allerdings nie gleichwertig sein, um die Dynamik des Tausches zu erhalten. Die Stellung eines Mannes in der Gesellschaft hängt von seinen "Tauschbeziehungen" ab. Ehre funktioniere hier als "gesellschaftliches Tauschprinzip".

Werner Schiffauer urteilt, dass der Wert, mit dem dies ausgedrückt wird, şeref heiße. Şeref erwerbe, "wer großzügig ist, wer viele Schuldner" habe. Im Unterschied dazu könne die Ehre (namus) nicht erworben, sondern nur verloren werden. Die Spannung zwischen namus und şeref, zwischen Gleichheit und Ungleichheit bestimme die Beziehungen zwischen Männern im türkischen Dorf: Weder dürfe immer Gleichheit herrschen, denn das hieße Konflikt, noch dauerhaft Ungleichheit. Die durch eine Gabe hergestellte Ungleichheit müsse umkehrbar sein. Eine Gabe, deren Wert an eine Vergeltung nicht denken lasse, sei "eine Beleidigung".

Die Wiederherstellung der Şeref gehört in der Türkei zu den möglichen Motiven für einen Ehrenmord.

Is It Important To Explore Space?

Q: Using vector to minimize heap allocations causes seg faults Within a function, I have created a vector with generous amounts of space to which I push a runtime determined amount of objects(Edge). Other objects, however, maintain pointers to the Edges within the vector. Occasionally the entire program seg faults because a pointer becomes invalid, and I suspect that this happens when the vector reaches capacity and reallocates, thereby invalidating the memory addresses.
Is there any way around this? Or perhaps is there another solution to grouping together heap allocations?
Note: that the primary motivation for this is to minimize heap allocations, for this is what is slowing down my algorithm. Initially I had vector<Edge *> and every element added was individually allocated. Batch allocation increased the speed dramatically, but the vector method described here invalidates pointers.
Your code example, as requested:
This is the vector I declare as a stack var:
vector<Edge> edgeListTemp(1000);

I then add to it as such, using an rvalue overload:
edgeListTemp.push_back(Edge{edge->movie, first, second});

Node objects keep pointers to these:
first->edges.push_back(&edgeListTemp.back());
second->edges.push_back(&edgeListTemp.back());

Where edges is declared as follows:
std::vector<Edge *> edges; /**< Adjacency list */

A: There are several possible solutions:

*

*if you already know the maximum number of elements in advance, do a reserve over the vector from the start; elements won't be reallocated until you reach that size;

*if you don't know the maximum number of elements/don't want to preallocate the maximum size for performance reasons but you only add/remove elements from the end (or from the start) of the vector, use an std::deque instead. std::deque guarantees that pointers to elements aren't invalidated as long as you only push/pop from front/back;

*std::list guarantees to never invalidate references to elements, but it introduces several serious performance penalties (no O(1) addressing, one allocation for each node);

*if you want to ignore the problem completely, add a layer of indirection, and store into the vector pointers to elements allocated over the heap; even better, make a vector of std::shared_ptr and always use it to keep references to the elements; this obviously has the disadvantage of needing one allocation for each element, which may or may not be acceptable, depending on your use case.

A: A std::deque does not move elements once added, so iterators and references are stable as long as you don't delete the referenced element.
Like std::vector, std::deque offers random access iterators. Random access into a deque is a little slower than std::vector, but still O(1). If you need stable references, the slight slow-down is probably acceptable.
Alternatively, instead of the pointer to the element, you could keep a reference to the vector and an index into the vector.
