Attention shoppers: should the Cloud 9 superstore remain open for business? As we all know, the Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like Superstore is cancelled or renewed for season five. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustration, when their viewing habits and opinions aren't considered, we'd like to offer you the chance to rate of the episodes in the fourth season of Superstore here. *Status update below.
Despite a ratings decline last year, the Superstore TV was not cancelled. In fact, it got an early renewal. Now that the fourth season is upon us, can this quirky little show regain some of the audience it has lost, or at least hang in there until it has a good-sized syndication package? Will Superstore be cancelled or renewed for season five? Stay tuned. *Status update below.

The story of the series began as an unlikely friendship between an adolescent Viking and a fearsome Night Fury dragon. Now chief and ruler of Berk alongside Astrid, Hiccup has created a gloriously chaotic dragon utopia.?
When the sudden appearance of female Light Fury coincides with the darkest threat their village has ever faced, Hiccup and Toothless must leave the only home they've known and journey to a hidden world thought only to exist in myth.?

Community and volunteering
Barnsley independent visitors scheme
The role of an independent visitor for children and young people in care was introduced as a statutory requirement for local authorities to provide in the Children Act 1989. The act states that a local authority has to appoint an independent visitor for any child they're looking after, if they feel it would be in the child's best interests.
We're looking to recruit new enthusiastic and committed volunteers who are looking for a long term voluntary opportunity to become a trusted adult and role model for looked after young people. Volunteering with us is a flexible, exciting and rewarding opportunity that fits around your lifestyle and other commitments where you'll make a positive difference to the life of a vulnerable young person, contributing to their development and confidence.
Independent visitors are hugely valued by the young people as they're often the only person involved in their lives that are not paid to be there.
What does an independent visitor do?
As an independent visitor, after being matched with a child or young person, you'll visit them on a regular basis with the aim of establishing a consistent, positive adult-child relationship. This one to one relationship can involve anything from football in the park to seeing the latest films or new things that the young person wants to do.
The role involves:
Establishing a long-term, consistent and supportive relationship with a child or young person (between eight and 25 years old) looked after by us. Helping to motivate them, develop their social skills, make sure they feel valued and encourage them to reach their full potential.
To meet regularly with the child or young person on a monthly basis offering friendship, support and advice. Visiting them and taking part in positive activities and outings that are led by the young person, dependent on their interests.
To work in partnership with us while maintaining the independence necessary to this role, promoting the child or young person's social and emotional development.
Willingness to undertake any training relevant to the role and a commitment to safeguard and protect children and young people at all time.
Contribute to the child or young person's Looked After Child review if requested.
To have fun together.
How old will the child be that I am matched with?
Children and young people will usually be aged from eight upwards. You'll have the opportunity to tell us if you'd like to volunteer with a particular age group.
What if we don't get along?
Matches in the first instance are carefully considered by both the child or young person and the volunteer to try and make sure you have similar interests and will likely be a good match.
This is reviewed regularly by the independent visitor coordinator and if the relationship is not working then we'll look to match you with someone else.
How long do you want me to volunteer for?
You'll be asked to make a commitment to volunteering as an independent visitor for a minimum of one year. However, many independent visitors and young people develop a strong friendship that can last beyond the young person reaching 25 at which point it becomes a private arrangement.
Matches can last up to 10 years in the most successful circumstances and will support a young person through key transition points in their life.
What experience or qualifications do I need?
Experience of working with children and young people would be helpful but is not essential as full training and support is provided at the beginning and throughout your involvement with the service. Applications are welcome from anyone over the age of 21 who has a genuine interest in the development and welfare of children.
For this volunteer position you must:
be over 21 years of age
be able to work independently and use your own initiative
be able to communicate effectively with children and young people
be a good listener
be reliable and punctual
have the ability to receive and accept support and guidance
be able to provide a long-term commitment by 'just being there'
commit to promoting the safety and welfare of young people
have a understanding of the challenges for looked after children or young people
have the ability to deal with sensitive, confidential and potentially distressing information
be sensitive to the needs and wishes of the child or young person
What training and support will I receive?
Independent visitors will be required to complete a thorough induction and training process and will receive on-going support to give them the skills and knowledge to confidently fulfil their role.
Volunteer expenses will be reimbursed for mileage and the costs of activities undertaken with the child or young person up to £30 per visit.
If you'd like to volunteer, even up to a few hours a month, email us.
You can also register your interest and read more about this opportunity on the Barnsley CVS website by selecting 'befriending / mentoring' under the area of interest.
The scheme operates under safer recruitment practices and all volunteers will be expected to undergo an enhanced check with the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).

Research indicates that the customers prefer to do business with companies that consistently meet or exceed their expectations.
In the digital age and experience economy, creating lasting customer experiences (CX) is not sending the voice of customer (VOC) surveys or setting up a loyalty program. It starts with shifting your business focus from a product-centric to a customer-centric company.
This transition is not smooth, especially if it's not considered a top business priority. However, it can be achieved with senior management buy-in to commit to this change and upending conventional ways of thinking across all levels in the company.

NFL Notes: Cowboys' Ezekiel Elliott Interacts With Fans, Shuns Media as Issues Swirl
By The Associated Press	• Published July 26, 2017 • Updated on July 31, 2017 at 8:18 pm
OXNARD, Calif. -- Ezekiel Elliott stopped for a few moments to greet military personnel and pose for a few pictures on the opening day of training camp.
Just like that, the star running back of the Dallas Cowboys darted out of a large crowd of reporters and ran toward a fence to sign a few autographs.
Last year's NFL rushing leader as a rookie isn't talking to media members because of lingering issues off the field, but Elliott is still hamming it up with adoring fans. And he's also going through complete workouts a year after a hamstring issue limited his time in camp.
"I'm not even worrying about Zeke because that guy loves football," said receiver Dez Bryant, who had his share of trouble upon entering the league in 2010.
"I understand it's more than football. He's got a great supporting cast and he can't lose with guys like us around him" (see full story).
Jets: Whitehead claimed off waiversafter identity snafu
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets claimed wide receiver-kick returner Lucky Whitehead on Wednesday, two days after the Cowboys cut him following a shoplifting charge in what turned out to be a case of mistaken identity.
A man used Whitehead's identity to steal $40 worth of food and drink from a Virginia convenience store in June. Dallas released him Monday after reports that Whitehead was arrested and subsequently cited for missing a court hearing.
The Jets, desperate for help at receiver, claimed the three-year veteran and waived receiver Devin Street.
Whitehead appeared in 30 games the past two seasons with the Cowboys. He averaged 25.6 yards on 33 kick returns and 6.9 yards on 44 punt returns, and had nine receptions as a reserve receiver.
When the charges against Whitehead were announced, his agent, Dave Rich, contended that his client wasn't in Virginia at the time of the reported arrest. Police subsequently said they are seeking the person who used the identity of Rodney Darnell Whitehead Jr., the receiver's given name.
Whitehead could file a grievance with the players' union about his release (see full story).
Browns: Top pick Garrett ready for camp
BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns already have their first win: Myles Garrett is ready for training camp.
The rookie defensive end and No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft has recovered from a foot sprain and will be on the field Thursday when Cleveland opens camp following a miserable 1-15 season.
Garrett suffered a left lateral foot sprain while rushing quarterback Brock Osweiler during minicamp in June. He was placed in a walking boot and there was some concern that he might be sidelined for an extensive period.
However, coach Hue Jackson said Wednesday that Garrett is "totally healthy" and will be on the field for the team's first workout. Garrett will be monitored during practices and it's possible he could be kept out of some drills.
"We will definitely monitor him but I think he's totally healthy, maybe hasn't done all the conditioning that you like to see right before training camp," Jackson said. "But I think he's up to speed and ready to go. And he's looking forward to it" (see full story).
Vikings: Pro Bowl DE Griffen gets extension
MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Vikings have signed two-time Pro Bowl defensive end Everson Griffen to a contract extension.
Griffen's deal was done Wednesday, when veteran players reported to training camp at Minnesota State University in Mankato.
Griffen's previous contract, which was signed in 2014, had two years remaining. Griffen has 48 sacks in seven seasons with the Vikings, who drafted him in the fourth round in 2010 out of USC. His tenure is the second longest on the team. Since becoming a full-time starter in 2014, Griffen has 30 sacks, the fifth most in the league during that span (see full story).
Falcons: Divers search lake for Jones' $100K-plus earring
GAINESVILLE, Ga. -- An NFL star's diamond earring valued at more than $100,000 is now presumed lost on the murky bottom of a Georgia lake.
WXIA-TV reported Tuesday that Atlanta Falcons star wide receiver Julio Jones lost it when he hit a boat wake and took a spill while jet skiing in Lake Lanier, about 50 miles (80 kilometers) outside Atlanta.
He resurfaced but his pricey earring didn't.
SCUBA divers have been searching the lake bottom, hoping to capture a flashlight's reflection off the jewelry amid old trees that have been submerged since the man-made lake's creation in the 1950s.
So far, no luck.
Falcons training camp begins Thursday and goes through Aug. 4. The first preseason game is Aug. 26 against the Arizona Cardinals, the grand opening of Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.


National Australia Bank today announced its disaster relief package for customers affected by bushfires in the Shires of Esperance and Dundas in Western Australia.
"This is a hard time for the people of Esperance and Dundas as they continue to face the real danger of bushfires," said Tracey Clarke, General Manager, NAB Retail, Western Australia.
NAB is also supporting employees impacted by the bushfires and has made crisis leave available to permanent full-time and part-time staff.

The bridge is a single-span structure comprising three bowstring trusses which created two bays for the original two GWR tracks.[2] The bridge is the World's oldest wrought iron railway bridge still in regular service,[3] and is a forerunner of Brunel's final masterpiece, the Royal Albert Bridge, Saltash.[1] The bridge was Grade-II* listed in 1975.[1]
The line opened in 1849. The construction of the line was delayed and could not be included in the original Parliamentary Act because of objections from the Provost of Eton College. The brick viaduct was constructed between 1861-65 to replace the original wooden trestle viaduct. The bridge contractor was Mr George Hannet.
Track layout
Although the bridge was built to take two tracks, the track on the upstream side was removed when the line was rationalised in the 1960s. The trackbed on this side now carries a sewage or water main pipe.

Summary: A system of linear inequalities is described that defines the set of real-valued matrices, for which a solution to the assignment problem with one fixed assignment gives an upper bound for the optimum value of the traveling salesman problem (TSP). This allows one to extend the result obtained for the TSP on strictly-upper-triangular matrices, for which E. Lawler has proved the polynomial solvability of the TSP.

Summary: When the method of momental equations is used for studying nonlinear systems, all nonlinear characteristics must be approximated by polynomials. To do this, it is suggested to use Hermite's polynomials with indefinite parameters that can be identified with the first moments of the coordinates being investigated. This enables one to improve the investigation accuracy using a small number of momental equations.

Summary: For 1,4[bi-(2,5-phenyloxazolyl)-benzene cross-sections of total, elastic and inelastic electron molecular interactions are calculated using the additivity method with regard for the geometry factor in the range from 10 to 100 eV. The value of the total cross-section is essentially lower than in the case of the Bethe-Born approximation but behaviour is the same. The contribution of exchange and polarization interactions at rather high electron energies is not essential and grows at low energies. The shielding effect at rather low energies results in decreasing the cross-section. The predicted elastic scattering crosssection is in a good agreement with the available experimental data.

Summary: The electronic structure and geometry of neutral and anionic copper dimers, trimers and tetramers are investigated using the ab initio MCQDPT2 (MCSCF based on MP2) method with the core potential and the corresponding valence basis set. For the assignment of cluster geometry to be assigned, the calculated vertical detachment energies (VDE) and energies of excited states the neutral clusters in the geometry of anions with respect to the ground state (Te) are compared with the observed photodetachment spectroscopic pattern. Binding energies per atom and vertical ionization potentials (IPv) of neutral species are calculated. The theoretical Te are found to agree with the experimental data. The obtained values of VDE and IPv need to be scaled to bring them into agreement with the experimental data. The data on the electronic structure and geometry of copper clusters are compared with the corresponding data for silver species. The accuracy of the calculations is found to be nearly equal for both metals, suggesting that the MCQDPT2 method can be used for bimetallic copper-silver clusters.
Summary: Experiments on separate determination of hydraulic conductivity (Lp) of a tonoplast and a plasma membrane of Nitella cells by using tonoplast-free fragments are conducted. The tonoplast hydraulic conductivity Lp exceeded that of the plasma membrane 4.3 times and exceeded the Lp of a lipid bilayer by two orders to amount to 2.68 • 10-6 m • s-1 • MPa-1. The results obtained favors both the facilitated transfer of water through the vacuolar membrane and the localization of specific proteins (aquaporins) in it. The conclusion is made that the tonoplast obviously performs two important functions in plants, one of which is the osmoregulation on a cell level and the other is the transcellular transfer of water on the level of tissue and entire plant.

Summary: Wild analogues of agricultural crops are a promising source of resistance genes against a variety of pests. Search for Colorado Potato Beetle resistance genes is of high importance in potato biotechnology, since the spread of virulent races of this pest is very possible. We involved the transposon tagging strategy with the use of the maize Ac/Ds transposon system to isolate leptines biosynthesis responsible genes which confer wild potato S. chacoense resistance to CРВ. Within this work the populations of Ds- and Ac/Ds-transformants were created which are a perspective material for analysis and selection of samples carrying insertion mutations of gene of interest, with the purpose of its isolation and further introduction into cultivated potato accessions.

Summary: The extent of a genetic diversity among wild and cultivated tomato accessions, previously identified as highly resistant to tomato leaf mould, was evaluated by RAPD. Genetic dissimilarity values between genotypes calculated by the RAPD data were used to produce a dendrogram of relationships between accessions using the neighbour-joining method (NJ). These results will be useful in the identification of suitable parents for the development of mapping populations for tagging tomato leaf mould resistance genes.
Summary: Based on the physical grounds and experimental data a model of a calcium channel was proposed. This model involved a pore lined with two binding sites, where negatively charged carboxylates of P-region glutamates in repeats I (El) and III (EIII) were implicated to form the outermost binding sites, while carboxylate of the side chain of glutamate in repeat IV (EIV) was involved in formation of the innermost binding site ("2+1 model"). The behavior of the model channel has computed by the Brownian dynamics technique taking into account multiion occupancy of a pore. The simulations show that the model allows one to provide a reasonably good fit to experimental data.

Summary: The influence of calcium ions on transport of glutathione-S-conjugates in human erythrocytes is studied. It is shown that incubation of erythrocyte with 1 mM/L CDNB (15 min, 37 ° C) results in forming DNP-SG-conjugates in both intact control cells and erythrocytes pretreated with Ca2+-ionophore A23187 (30 min, 37 ° C). It is found that increasing the intracellular calcium concentration 1.5--1.6 time decreases the export of glutathione-S-conjugates by 20 % as against control cells. Different variants of the interpretation of the obtained results are discussed.

Israel Preparing Declaration of National Climate Emergency – Haaretz
Posted by Editor on Wednesday, October 27th 2021
The bill would require all public agencies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, set up monitoring and reporting systems, and prepare for climate emergencies in Israel

Lee Yaron Oct. 17, 2021
Israel's government is preparing a national climate emergency declaration that, if approved, would obligate all state bodies to beef up preparations for the impact of climate change.
The declaration is being drafted by the Prime Minister's Office, the Environmental Protection Ministry, the National Security Council and the Defense Ministry.
The government is also working to pass a climate law, the draft of which is currently supported by all ministries except two – finance and energy.
Although Finance Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Energy Minister Karine Elharrar have repeatedly voiced support for fighting climate change, their ministries were responsible for weakening the climate goals Israel submitted to the United Nations in July. Now, they are trying to thwart the climate bill.
Taken together, the declaration and the law would require all public agencies to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, set up monitoring and reporting systems, and prepare for climate emergencies.
Sources involved in the negotiations said that Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is backing Environmental Protection Minister Tamar Zandberg's proposals. She has been pushing the climate bill since taking office and asked Bennett to approve the emergency declaration back in July.
Bennett would like to be able to announce progress on these issues when he attends the UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow in another two weeks, the sources added.
The Middle East is being affected by climate change faster and more powerfully than many other parts of the world. Yet Israel hasn't set ambitious targets for emissions reduction and renewable energy, nor has it prepared relevant agencies for possible crises.
The declaration would define the climate crisis as a threat to Israel, which would automatically make the Defense Ministry's National Emergency Management Authority responsible for preparing for it. It would also require all government agencies and first responders to prepare plans for coping with extreme climate events like floods, fires and heat waves.
The Defense Ministry has considered adding climate change to its threat list since 2018. But only in recent months has it concluded that the issue in fact poses a significant threat.
The declaration, which is a flagship demand of Israeli environmental organizations, would also bolster Israel's position in the international climate arena. In February, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres urged all countries to declare a climate emergency, and dozens have already done so.
As for the bill, the Environmental Protection Ministry sent its latest draft to other government ministries for comment last week. The legislation includes binding emissions targets and would require all ministries, local governments and other public agencies to prepare plans for coping with climate change. It also requires preparation of a national plan for reducing emissions and a system for monitoring and reporting on whether the law's goals are being met.
In addition, it would create a ministerial committee on climate, an expert advisory panel whose members would be appointed by the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities, and another advisory panel comprised of representatives of environmental organizations, industry and "the younger generation."
Finally, it would establish a climate and environment institute under the Environmental Protection Ministry's auspices. The institute's job would be to gather scientific information on these matters from around the world, including by conducting comparative studies, in order to provide the government and the expert advisory panel with accurate and current information.
Lieberman has said repeatedly that he supports fighting climate change and favors imposing a carbon tax. Nevertheless, his ministry opposes the climate bill, and his aides have said he will do so even if the Environmental Protection Ministry's proposed changes are accepted.
The treasury has submitted 16 objections, of which the most fundamental is that "legislation isn't the right framework for the steps proposed in the law." It argues that legislation will limit the government's discretion and "its ability to manage its budget based on the varying challenges that appear on its agenda at different times."

It also charges that the bill would require agencies to draft a plan for coping with climate change "without addressing what impact this plan will have on other agency commitments or on its budget," and it objects to letting the science academy determine the composition of the expert advisory panel.
Finally, it contends that the bill's target of reducing emissions in 2030 by 27 percent from 2015 levels is too steep. It wants the target to be a reduction of only 20 percent.
The Energy Ministry said it doesn't oppose the bill in principle, but charges that the current wording "doesn't serve the purpose for which we're seeking to enact it."
It also complains that the bill will reduce its own power while giving the Environmental Protection Ministry too much power. The latter's expanded powers, it said, would "undermine basic principles of our system of government … in a way that might prevent the Energy Ministry from doing its job of ensuring the existence of a reliable, functioning energy market, which nobody disputes is a necessity for maintaining basic normal life."
The various ministries will hold talks in the coming days with the goal of reaching a compromise acceptable to all sides.
"It's sad to see once again how government ministries continue to fight with each other, even when the matter is urgent, rather than working together for all Israelis' benefit," said Yoni Sapir, chairman of the environmental group Homeland Guards. "If the law's wings are clipped, it would be better not to pass it at all."

Presenting Widow Twanky
We're now just two weeks from the release of the new Momus album, Joemus. Here's the second YouTube single from the album (the first was Mr Proctor). It's called Widow Twanky, and it uses the YearbookYourself software which is pretty viral at the moment:
Joemus got its first review this week, from an online publication called BabySue:
Momus - Joemus (CD, Darla, Electronic/pop)
"The appropriately-titled Joemus is a collaboration between Momus and Joe Howe (Gay Against You, Germlin). The two musicians did most of their writing and recording over the internet before getting together in Berlin, Germany to finish ironing out the final details of the recordings. Joemus is a slightly kooky album that is virtually unpredictable. One track may find the band playing blippy-bloopy hummable electronic pop ("Birocracy")...but seconds later you may feel that you are listening to a modern lounge artist ("Widow Twanky"). Other cuts may give you the impression that the music is entirely experimental and crazy. The duo covers a lot of ground with these 15 tracks...so much so that the average listener is likely to be taken off guard or lost somewhere along the way. And that may be exactly the desired reaction from these two extraordinarily clever guys. Bizarre modern electronic pop cuts include "The Next Time," "Strewf!", "Goodiepal," "Fade to White," and "The Vaudevillian." Odd stuff, sometimes with a strange nervous twist... (Rating: 5/6, EXCELLENT)"
Kooky, bizarre and crazy seem like strange epithets coming from a website whose front page announces: "To Smintre, SNICK on the PLOCK."
Widow Twanky has already been the subject of a fun cover version by Ross Hawkins from Idle Tigers:
Idle Tigers: Widow Twanky (mp3 file, 3.1MB)


New from Urban Decay is a range of matte lipsticks : Matte Revolution! Available in 9 shades, this lipstick delivers intense pigmentation thanks to Urban Decay's Pigment Infusion System.
The Matte Revolution Lipsticks are highly pigmented and most of them have a super smooth and creamy formula, they glide on the lips without tugging!
All the shades I've tried left a stain on the lips, but Menace was a lot harder to remove.. which can be a good or a bad thing depending of your preferences. I personally love this because it increases the staying power! Speaking of which, I get more than 6 hours of wear and the formula feels great on my lips.
Blackmail is a very dark purple (almost black!) with a semi-matte finish. The color payoff is great but if you want a super opaque black, you will need to blot the first layer with a tissue and then you can apply a second layer. This is the darkest lipstick I own and while that's not something I would wear often, I think it's a nice addition to my makeup collection!
Tom Ford Black Dahlia, Vasanti Drunk In Love and Illamasqua Growl are lighter. MAC Instigator is slightly lighter and is more purple. MAC Dramatic Encounter (LE) is slightly lighter and the finish is more glossy.
Menace is a bright fuchsia pink with a matte finish. This one is more matte than the other Matte Revolution Lipsticks and the formula is less creamy. I recommend to apply it over a very thin layer of your favorite lip balm or some MAC Prep + Prime Lip. It's a highly pigmented shade and the staying power is pretty impressive. Despite the fact that it isn't very creamy, it still feels comfortable on the lips during many hours!
MAC Flat Out Fabulous is more cool toned. MAC Candy Yum-Yum is a lot lighter. MAC Tats (LE) is slightly lighter and more warm toned. PUPA Milano #203 is a tad darker and more red.
After Dark is a medium berry red with a slightly pearlescent matte finish. Yep, it seems like the finish can vary quite a bit for each shade! The finish for this one is hard to describe, it's matte but it has a sheen without being frosty. The color payoff is great although it's not completely opaque.
MAC Heaux (LE) is a bit lighter and less purple. Vasanti Mad Love is slightly lighter and more pink. Illamasqua Shard is a tad more purple.
Bittersweet is a medium pinky purple with a creamy finish. This one has a very creamy consistency so the finish is less matte than the other shades, but it's not too oily either. It feels amazing on the lips! I usually don't like cool toned shades on me but I love Bittersweet, it's quite unique!
MAC Heroine is darker, more mauve. Colourpop Lychee is darker, more mauve and brighter.
Tilt is a coral orange with a semi-matte finish. The color payoff is excellent and the formula is smooth and creamy! I really, really love this shade and can't wait to wear it next summer (sigh).
MAC Dangerous is darker and less coral. NARS Juliette is slightly lighter and is a tad more pink. NYX Indie Flick is lighter, brighter and is much more orange. MAC Ablaze (LE) is lighter and a bit brighter.
The Urban Decay Matte Revolution Lipstick retail for $26 CAD for 2.8g.
These shades are so pretty especially the blackmail color. Love it.

Under her leadership as the organization's CEO (1993-2011), the organization grew from helping 30 women upon its inception to more than 478,000 marginalized women in 8 conflict areas. It also distributed more than $120 million in direct aid and microcredit loans that impacted more than 1.7 million family members.
In her move to journalism and media, Zainab created and hosted several shows including: #MeToo, Now What? original series on PBS (2018); The Zainab Salbi Project, original series on Huffington Post (2016); The Nidaa Show with TLC Arabic where she started with the historic first interview of Oprah Winfrey in the Arab world; and her latest Through Her Eyes with Zainab Salbi at Yahoo News.

Helloo, welcome to my bullet journal thread! First off, this was completely inspired by Regine's (Thundawave) bullet journal portfolio, it will also explain what a bullet journal is. I was really inspired by the creative aspect of this and needed some more organisation in my life, so it felt like a great solution. I know that it's supposed to be done traditionally, and doing it digitally pretty much defeats the purpose, but this is what I feel works best for myself.
I decided to make my bullet journal digitally for many reasons. First reason is because I'm doing this for the first time, I want to be able to incorporate it into my lifestyle before I commit to buying all the stationary to do it physically. Despite all the art supplies I own, I don't actually have all the stationary suitable to bullet journalling, and with my dark history of spending ridiculous amounts of money on art supplies I'm not taking any chances to fall into another addiction. u.u Also, I've had a weird relationship with physical notebooks in general. I've never finished a notebook, I always continuously rip out pages when I make a mistake until it's completely unusable. So this was my solution!
I'm using a 12.9" iPad Pro with the Apple Pencil. I set up my bullet journal template using [this] video, and followed along with [this] video to learn how to set it up.
Here's my first update! I decided to use birds as my theme for the month, and used my favourite colours in it.
This bullet journal looks great!! I like how it's digital, sometimes with my BuJo I wish I could reorder things after writing them but you get the best of both options!
Can confirm stationary is expensive. I went to Office Max yesterday and spent a little over $50 on stuff. While the main purpose of me going was to use a $10 off $50 coupon I had, I may or may not have bought some things I didn't really need.
But your journal is so pretty!! I love it! The birds theme is super cute!
Oh my goodness everything about this is so beautiful and pleasing @.@ I love the habit tracker you have too.
Theme is love, for obvious reasons.
i think it looks super cute ;o; tbh i could imagine this design on an actual planner!! it's really pretty!

We are in majority, claims unified AIADMK
111 MLAs of the ruling All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) in Tamil Nadu today attended a legislators' meet convened by Chief Minister E Palaniswami, amid calls for a floor test in the Assembly by the opposition parties.
State Fisheries Minister D Jayakumar on Tuesday asserted the unified AIADMK is in majority, claiming that all its MLAs are extending support to Palanisamy.
"111 MLAs attended the meet. One is not well, but has extended support, three from our alliance also support us. One of them is the speaker. Nine MLAs from other group were contacted on phone and they extended support, so we are in majority," Jayakumar said.
After its 21 legislators switched to rebel camp headed by "ousted" leader TTV Dinakaran after withdrawing support to the chief minister, the unified AIADMK had convened a crucial meeting of the legislators.
Though the AIADMK had also invited the rebel MLAs to the meeting, they denied the proposal.Governor Ch. Vidyasagar Rao is yet take a decision on the letter given by 19 rebel MLAs seeking to remove Palanisamy.The AIADMK has 134 MLAs in the 234-member state Assembly.

What is an android app developer?
Building an application for an android phone is not an easy task, it can be very difficult to build a complete working app from scratch for an android phone. The people who are able to do this complicated task are known as android app developers.
If you ever have an idea for an android application it is always a smart decision to hire someone who is experienced in android app development instead of attempting to create an android app yourself as for someone with no experience it can be almost impossible task to complete.
What to look for when hiring an android app developer?
Before you go out looking for an android app developer first you need to clearly understand exactly what kind of app do you want them to make for you as there are different kinds of android developers who specialize in different kinds of apps.
There are:
Native apps are built from scratch for the mobile platform with all the functionality you need.
Web apps are basically versions of regular websites that work on a mobile platform.
Hybrid apps are the combination of both meaning it is a mobile version of a website that can be accessed through its own icon on your android phone and will be on the play store like any other Android app.
The kind of developer you hire will be based upon which type of app do you want for yourself. On the Android platform, a similar application can be made in a variety of different programming languages and different app developers only specialize in a limited number of programming languages so it is also a wise decision to make sure the application you want will be in a programming language the developer is proficient in.
The second factor when it comes to hiring an android app developer is how experienced and skilled they are, obviously, an android developer who has more experience and skill will be able to create your app not only faster but the app also will perform better and they will be able to add in features which an unskilled developer might not be able to so. But the more skilled and experienced the developer is the more you will have to pay them for an app so it all comes down to how much money are you able to spend on the app development, a developer with less experience can be hired to create a simple only for a few hundred dollars but an experienced one can demand thousands of dollars when creating an app but will provide you with a much higher quality of work.
An app developers job is not done after simply building an app, they are also required to maintain it, update it with more features in the future if you want to add some more functionality, and fix inevitable bugs which pop up in the app, hence you should always hire an app developer on a long term basis as the developer who built the app himself will always be able to most easily be able to maintain it and add changes as required.

Home Care Services Can Help a Person with Multiple Sclerosis!
Close to a half a million people in the United States are living with Multiple Sclerosis. There are different stages of MS and as the disease progresses; home care services can play an important role in helping a senior function.
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that attacks the central nervous system. The myelin sheath, which protects the cells in the brain and spinal cord, are damaged and therefore, communication between the body and brain is blocked.
Help with daily activities such as bathing and getting dressed.
Prepare healthy meals. Research has shown that a vitamin D deficiency can increase the risk of MS.
Provide medication reminders if needed.
Assist with household chores such as housekeeping and laundry.
Help to increase mobility through physical therapy.
Promote and encourage independence with daily activities through occupational therapy.
Provide speech and language assistance.
Attend to problems that occur due to lack of bladder control.
Help with lifestyle changes. Smoking can worsen the symptoms associated with MS.
Help with transportation to appointments and support groups.
Assist in transferring a person from bed to wheelchair, or chair.
Encourage exercise and social activities. Exercise, both aerobic and strength building can improve stiffness, flexibility, and mobility.
There are advantages to having an in-home care provider over facility care. Facilities, while they do their best to model the personal care of a home health aide professional, they are often busy and active places where the staff is dealing with multiple people. In-home care offers one-on-one attention providing a higher level of quality care.
Another advantage of having a home care services assist a person in their home involves the therapy treatments. While some people go to a rehabilitation facility for physical or occupational therapy, doing it in the home is where the person is going to need to learn how to navigate and make changes.

Q: Taglib inside Maven dependency jar. How do I configure this taglib inside the web.xml? So I used to configure my taglib like that:
<jsp-config>
   <taglib>
      <taglib-uri>myTags</taglib-uri>
      <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/lib/mylib-2.0.1.jar</taglib-location>
   </taglib>
</jsp-config>

But now mylib-2.0.1.jar is a maven dependency, so of course it is NOT on /WEB-INF/lib.
How do I do to configure my taglib so I can do that in my JSPs:
<%@ taglib uri="myTags" prefix="mt" %>

EDIT1: To clafiry, the taglib.tld is inside the META-INF inside the jar so you can access the tld by referencing the jar itself. That's a convenient way to distribute your taglib along with the web application framework jar.
EDIT2: When we deploy the webapp, the jar will be in the WEB/INF/lib. But during development, inside eclipse, using m2eclipse, the jar will NOT. So eclipse complains it cannot find the taglib no where, because the jar is not there and I cannot reference my jar in the web.xml.

A: You do not need to configure anything in web.xml, if the taglib is in \META-INF\taglib.tld inside your jar, it is automatic, Tomcat already recognizes.
You can use the jsp :
<% @ Taglib prefix = "my" uri = "http://www.mytags.com/"%>

A: If you add in your POM the taglig dependency, it will be added in the WEB-INF/lib directory of your webapp.
  <dependency>
     <groupId>yourTageLib</groupId>
     <artifactId>mylib</artifactId>
     <version>2.0.1</version>
     <scope>compile</scope>
  </dependency>
