When officers searched McClanahan, the narcotic Oxycodone pills packaged in baggies weighing more than six grams allegedly fell from McClanahan's pants, the report states. Oxycodone is one of the prescription drugs associated with a nationwide opioid addiction crisis.
Officers also found nine .40 caliber handgun bullets in the trunk. McClanahan has previous drug and weapons convictions in York County from 2015 and is barred from possessing guns or ammunition, police and court records show.
McClanahan was out on bond from Lancaster County at the time of his arrest for an illegal weapons charge from January, court records show.
Officers also said they recovered the discarded cigarette package and found two marijuana joints inside. Officers charged McClanahan with possession of marijuana.
McClanahan remains in the York County jail under a $13,000 bond, jail records show.


Q. I'm moving cross-country and I have to transport an oil triptych. This is a military-sponsored move, and weight limitations are strict. How can I make these three paintings (3×6 feet each) safely transportable?
A. Your objectives are to cushion the paintings against bumps and rough handling and to shield their surfaces from damage, dust and dirt. First, wrap the paintings, including the frames if applicable, with brown kraft paper. It comes in rolls of varying widths—I'd suggest a 4-foot-wide roll. Wrap each painting completely, front and back, and secure the package with masking tape.
Then shield the front of the painting with a stiff piece of corrugated cardboard. You can buy cardboard in large sheets, up to about 4×8 feet, or you can scrounge at appliance stores or home centers for refrigerator cartons to cut up. Tape the cardboard to the wrapped pictures. Buy enough bubble wrap to cover each painting, and cut the wrap into sheets and strips to avoid too much bulkiness at the edges and corners. Make sure there's plenty of ventilation by not completely sealing all the seams—you don't want moisture to condense inside the packages.
At this point, you have a couple of options. The safest solution is to build a wooden crate out of plywood for each painting, or a wooden crate with separate slots to hold all three paintings. The pictures should fit tightly into the crate to minimize movement. This is an expensive prospect and may be too heavy given your weight limitations, but it's the best way to go.
In all cases, be sure the paintings are loaded into the van so that they're not lying flat. They should be placed standing on the long edge of the painting, along a side wall of the van, and shielded from unwrapped furniture and other bulky items with hard edges—perhaps by a wall of wardrobe and book boxes. Of course, nothing should be placed on top of the pictures.

Characterisation of genes essential for pathogenesis of fish adapted S. agalactiae
Santi, Morena (2022) Characterisation of genes essential for pathogenesis of fish adapted S. agalactiae. PhD thesis, University of Nottingham.
PDF (Thesis - as examined) - Repository staff only - Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader
Streptococcus agalactiae, or Group B Streptococcus (GBS), is a highly infectious zoonotic pathogen, responsible for streptococcosis in fish, meningitis and septicaemia in humans and mastitis in cattle. In fish, it manifests as septicaemia, resulting in high morbidity and mortality in a number of wild and farmed species, especially tilapia. In the current study the genome of the fish isolate Streptococcus agalactiae 01173 was sequenced and shown to be representative of those isolated from fish. A population of randomly mutagenized strains were generated in S. agalactiae 01173 using the pGh9:ISS1 insertional mutagenesis system. Populations of mutants in which between 1759 and 1946 of the 1969 protein coding sequences were mutated and analysed using the transposon insertion sequencing technique, Pragmatic Insertional Mutation Mapping System, to identify genes required for survival in relevant biological conditions. This approach led to the identification of genes that might contribute to the survival of S. agalactiae during infection in its natural host. Following growth in tilapia serum, 66 such genes were identified. A further 52 genes were identified as conditionally essential in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and 98 genes were found to be conditionally essential in the presence of the antimicrobial peptide, TP4. Three genes, dltX, atpB and atpC were found to be essential in all the three phenotypes. This represents the first transposon insertion sequencing study on a fish adapted S. agalactiae, and highlights its potential use to rapidly identify potential targets for further investigation and exploitation in the generation of vaccines and new therapeutics.

Found Only in New Hampshire: Robbins Cinquefoil
Posted on 23 October, 2006 by Janice Brown
A member of the rose family, Robbins' Cinquefoil (Potentilla robbinsiana),
also called the dwarf cinquefoil, is probably the rarest plant in New England. It was discovered by early botanist and ornithologist Thomas Nuttall, and was named by William Oakes, for botanist James W. Robbins.
Robbins was particularly interested in aquatic plants, was an expert on Potamogeton, having written the Potamoget section of the fifth edition of Gray's Manual of Botony. Robbins was born in Colebrook, CT on Nov. 18, 1801; he graduated from Yale in 1822 and received he M.D. from Yale in 1828. For many years he was a physician in Uxbridge, MA, and he died there on Jan. 9, 1879.
The Robbins' Cinquefoil is a petite yellow-flowered perennial, only found in the alpine zone of New Hampshire, in the White Mountain National Forest. It is stemless, measuring 2-4 centimeters in diameter, and bears a yellow flower that begins in early June and lasts about three weeks. The plant grows in some of the harshest conditions found anywhere in New England, withstanding freezing temperatures and high winds. In the wild, cinquefoil takes twelve years to mature.
The plant was first discovered in 1824, alongside the Crawford Path, a bridle path ascending Mount Washington. About 95% of the cinquefoil's known habitat was found on just one acre of the mountain. It was placed on the endangered species list in 1980 when less about 3,700 of the plants remained. Hikers on the Appalachian trail and plant collectors were felt to be responsible for its peril.
The plant's recovery was assisted by the cooperative conservation efforts of the Fish and Wildlife Service, the United States Forest Service, the Appalachian Mountain Club, and the New England Wild Flower Society.
By rerouting the hiking trails away from the plant's habitat in 1983, and by working with biologists (at the New England Wild Flower Society), more populations of these lovely flowers were growing and thriving. In 2002 when more than 14,000 Robbins' cinquefoils were believed to be growing in our White Mountains, these rare plants were officially removed from the endangered list.
Move over Syringa vulgaris (aka purple lilac) and Cypripedium acaule, (aka pink ladyslipper). You've been New Hampshire's state flower since 1919 and the state wildflower since 1991, respectively. The first of the purple lilac was imported from England and planted at the Portsmouth New Hampshire home of Governor Benning Wentworth in 1750. However, you are not a native of our fine state. The Pink Ladyslipper is not especially rare. It is found mostly in the eastern and northeastern states, and is also found in Canada, and as far west as Minnesota. Besides New England, it can be found in some states such as: South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Minnesota, Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky. It is very clear that Robbins' cinquefoil best deserves the honor as our state flower or wildflower.

HUD AWARDS $2.7 MILLION TO GROUPS IN BIG STONE GAP, BRISTOL, PETERSBURG, ROANOKE & WAYNESBORO TO HELP YOUNG PEOPLE FINISH HIGH SCHOOL, LEARN CONSTRUCTION TRADES & EXPAND SUPPLY OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING
WASHINGTON - Groups in Big Stone Gap, Bristol, Petersburg, Roanoke and Waynesboro have won a total of $2,692,669 in Youthbuild grants awarded today by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The Youthbuild grants help at-risk young people graduate high school, train them for a future in the construction trades and will produce affordable homes for lower income families, many facing homelessness.
In today's Youthbuild announcement, the Lonesome Pine Office of Youth in Big Stone Gap was awarded a $400,000 grant, the Bristol Redevelopment and Housing Authority was awarded a $400,000 grant, Petersburg Urban Ministries was awarded a $700,000 grant, Total Action Against Poverty, Inc., in Roanoke was awarded a $700,000 grant and the Waynesboro Redevelopment and Housing Authority was awarded a $492,669 grant.
This is the first time that the Lonesome Pine Office of Youth has won a Youthbuild grant. The Bristol, Petersburg, Roanoke and Waynesboro have won Youthbuild grants in prior competitions.
"HUD is thrilled that it can play such an important role in helping these young people to earn their high school
diplomas while while helping Virginia communities preserve and expand their stock of affordable housing," said HUD Richmond Director William P. Miles. "Youthbuild is a win-win program benefiting both young people and the
communities in which they live."
Young people who enroll in local Youthbuild programs lack high school diplomas and the job skills necessary to find meaningful employment. The funding announced today will help young men and women, ages 16-to-24, to receive their high school equivalency diplomas and provide them training in homebuilding skills that will qualify them for
careers in the building industry.
Program participants will receive on-the-job training in the building trades and help build and renovate homes that
are then sold at affordable prices to low- and very low-income persons as well as to homeless individuals and
families. In addition, these grants are anticipated to generate millions of additional dollars from other public and private sources.
HUD is the nation's housing agency committed to increasing homeownership, particularly among minorities; creating affordable housing opportunities for low-income Americans; and supporting the homeless, elderly, people with disabilities and people living with AIDS. The Department also promotes economic and community development as
well as enforces the nation's fair housing laws. More information about HUD and its programs is available on the Internet and espanol.hud.gov.

Q: Type returned by method based on constructor optional param I have a class with constructor:
class Example<T> {
    constructor(private elem: T, private array?: T[]) {}
}

and I want add method some with returned:

*

*Promise<T> if not defined param array in constructor

*Promise<T[]> if defined param array in constructor

How can I do this?
Actualy I have:
class Example<T, S extends T[] | undefined> {
    constructor(private elem: T, private array?: S) {}

    some(): S extends undefined ? Promise<T> : Promise<S> {
        if(!this.array) {
            return Promise.resolve(this.elem);
        }

        return Promise.resolve(this.array);
    }
}

const a = new Example(1, undefined);
a.some(); // ✓ Return Promise<number>

const b = new Example(1, [1, 2, 3]);
b.some(); // ✓ Return Promise<number[]>

const c = new Example(1);
c.some(); // ✗ Return Promise<number> | Promise<number[]>, should return Promise<number>

A: *

*remove the extends constraint from type parameter S

*invert S extends undefined ? to S extends T[] ?
class Example<T, S> {
    constructor(private elem: T, private array?: S) {}

    some(): S extends T[] ? Promise<S> : Promise<T> {
        if (!this.array) {
            // @ts-ignore
            return Promise.resolve(this.elem);
        }
        // @ts-ignore
        return Promise.resolve(this.array);
    }
}

const a = new Example(1, undefined);
a.some(); // ✓ Return Promise<number>

const b = new Example(1, [1, 2, 3]);
b.some(); // ✓ Return Promise<number[]>

const c = new Example(1);
c.some(); // ✓ Return Promise<number>

Playground Link

A: After some time I found a solution:
class Example<T, S extends T[] | undefined = undefined> {
    constructor(private elem: T, private array?: S) {}

    some(): S extends undefined ? Promise<T> : Promise<S> {
        if(!this.array) {
            return Promise.resolve(this.elem) as any; // [1]
        }

        return Promise.resolve(this.array) as any; // [1]
    }
}

const a = new Example(1, undefined);
a.some(); // ✓ Return Promise<number>

const b = new Example(1, [1, 2, 3]);
b.some(); // ✓ Return Promise<number[]>

const c = new Example(1);
c.some(); // ✓ Return Promise<number>

const d = new Example(1, ["a", "b"]); // ✓ Should be error here
d.some();

[1] Because of issues with conditional type returned type we need to use as any casting
More elegant should be solution proposed by hackape but it not cover d case where we expect error

Gateways to Freedom (Opening) – Jack opens with a reflection on the nature of the Dharma teachings and the gateways inward that are available to any person who pursues them.
Gate of Awareness (5:30) – The goal of mindfulness and meditation practice isn't about gaining anything, but rather the goal is to enter into a different relationship with this life that we have been given. The first dimension of mindfulness that transforms this relationship is the capacity to be mindful of the content of our experience. Jack discusses the ways that the awareness of what arises changes how we interact with the world.
Illuminating Our Experience (24:35) – The second gateway of mindfulness comes with the examination of the process of experience. We explore what happens when we turn towards our dukkha and begin to see the impermanence in all things.
The Witness (38:50) – The final gateway to freedom is the awareness of consciousness itself. Jack talks about the role of the witness, the one who knows, and shares examples of ways that we can step out of the drama of life and witness it from the place of consciousness itself.
Joseph Goldstein takes a closer look at what mindfulness really is on Ep. 50 of the Insight Hour Podcast.

Herby Olschewski – Heritage Ambassador
I first set out to travel the world in 1986. Exploring many places, experiencing various cultures and tracing my own heritage. Traveling through life is a personal journey in body, mind and soul. While we may not always know what lies ahead, one thing is for sure... we all come from somewhere. With a good understanding of our past, it's easier to embrace the future. One step at a time, meandering with meaning, navigating as we go along. Getting lost is a bonus. After all, it's just a place we have not been to before. That said, life is short... and I now find myself more discerning when choosing a route. The ArtAcadia.org path is unique and interesting. Lined with limitless possibilities. It's a good way to give back. As a Heritage Ambassador, I look forward to helping others forge their way to a fabulous future!

Carolina Reviglio – Heritage Doyenne
Carolina enjoyed a carefree childhood in the Piemonte countryside. With many cousins and friends, the passion for culture was instilled from an early age. Surrounded by beauty and art in the family mansion Cimena, expertly curated by grandmother Carolina. On the paternal side of the family, her Venetian grandmother was equally influential. While traveling far and wide, Carolina feels most at home, in Venice. Schooled in Italy and the United States, lived in provinces throughout the length of Italy, Carolina considers herself truly Italian, with an international vision. "My country is rich in heritage, but poor in the pocket to keep it so. It saddens me to see so many buildings in a state of disrepair." She had honed the skills of renovation and interiors of historic buildings since 1987. Learning by trial and error, spurned on by failure and success, Carolina has grown and prospered. Now is the time to give back. Helping artisans of all disciplines to find work and ply their trade with pride. Matching projects to professionals and vice versa. "As Heritage Doyenne, my contribution to this initiative, is to encourage the participation of Heritage Ambassadors. This worthy cause is another avenue, to take our past into the future!"

I am looking for a yellow pages type directory that integrates with VB.
Custom fields - so I could have Country, Area, Telephone number, Description. All to show up on the category display page.
Multiple Categories - can I have around 300? Or will there be a performance hit? I could narrow it down to around 6 if it were possible to list by one of the custom fields (so it acts like a category). So for example if a custom field was toy shops and another was paint shops I could list all results for each one (hard link to the results page if need be).
Have two tiers of results - free listings and paid for lisitings. Where paid for lisitings are always shown above free lisitings.
Tie-in with usergroups. To make the above possible. So we can set it up so that paid for links show above 'free' links. And use the subscription feature in vB to revert people back to 'free' listings if they don't take out another years subscribtion. (Could this be as simple to check whether the person who posted the link is in usergroup A and if so it shows that persons link above the free lisitings, then it checks all other links that have not been posted by someone in that usergroup and shows them afterwards).
Could we mod re-write categories for seo?
Last but not least - is it possible to sort results in categories randomly, making it fairer on advertisers (the way yell.com works).
I have it all mapped out in my head, so if you need further help please let me know. Or if you don't want to make it a product for release, would you consider doing it as a one off job (paid).
Last edited by Raze; 04-24-2007 at 12:48 AM..
- two tiers can be possible if you provide a usergroup (paid subscriptions) that have the "make threads stickies" enabled.. so when they post a new entry they can make it sticky, so on top of others.
You could have those custom fields show up in the forumdisplay page with some slight template tweaking, but you could only filter on one.
I suppose you could order randomly, but not by default. You would either need to tweak GARS, or create a simple plug in.
Another question - Is it possible to disable all the side blocks?
Also, if I buy the unbranded version first can I pay the extra and remove branding at a later stage?
Does the system automatically get a snapshot of the website?
How about if the person submitting details in the directory doesn't actually have a link? Will it still go through ok? (some of my users may just be submitting name/telephone/address details).
By default, the custom field created and used with the directory does require a valid URL but that is easily changable. I cant recall if the snap module wont save unless there is a valid URL, but thats an easy file edit if so.

From the musical
Music by Richard M. Sherman, Lyrics by Robert B. Sherman
"Feed the Birds (Tuppence a Bag)" is a song featured in the 1964 film Mary Poppins, written by the Sherman Brothers, and sung by Mary Poppins (Julie Andrews). It has an orchestral and choral reprise, played over George Banks' solitary walk to the bank at night. It is known to have been Walt Disney's favorite song. It is also noted to be one of the only two from the film (the other being "Stay Awake") that P.L. Travers liked as well.
This stunning 3-part setting of the poignant song from Disney's Mary Poppins features rich vocal writing and a tasteful, expressive accompaniment.

APC cautions foreign envoys - The Liberty Times™ Nigeria | @TLTNEWS247 Where the world listens to the Nigerian voice!
The Director of Strategic Communication of the party's campaign, Mr. Festus Keyamo, SAN, in a statement in Abuja, expressed worry at comments allegedly made by the US ambassadors and other diplomats, saying they are tended to cast doubt in the ability of the Buhari-led administration to conduct free and fair elections.
APC further accused the US of being guilty of a double standard for granting Vice President Atiku Abubakar special status to enter the US territory.
In a statement issued yesterday, Keyamo described the diplomats' views directed at Nigeria's upcoming elections as unwarranted and attempt to interfere in the internal affairs of Nigeria.
"We are deeply concerned about many of the expressions of the United States' Ambassador to Nigeria, Ambassador W. Stuart Symington, and other Western diplomats, which have been directed towards Nigeria's upcoming elections.
''While we laud and whole-heartedly welcome their interests in the elections, many of these expressions have been notably off-key. The continued warnings about flawed elections are capable of casting an unwarranted cloud over the process," it said.
The APC said that instead of encouraging efforts towards credible elections, such statements undermine public confidence in government.
For instance, APC said the American Ambassador had criticized its call on Nigerians to reject the presidential candidate of PDP, Atiku Abubakar over "his political and economic policies that are abhorrent and dangerous".
"We truly hope some of the statements attributed to these diplomats are inaccurate; the unfounded allegations and threats to penalize people for constitutionally-protected free speech is improper interference in our internal affairs.
"We take the view that the constant statements by Ambassador Symington and the other diplomats are implicit attacks against the government of Nigeria.
"These statements imply the Nigerian government is inclined to rig the election in favor of President Buhari. This is unfair and unacceptable to us. President Buhari has never been accused of electoral malpractice all his life," said APC.
While defending its campaign statements, APC said it is the duty of the candidate to tell the people truth to protect the nation from subsequent calamity.
While further deploring the US envoy's views, APC said he failed to acknowledge an open confession of blatant electoral malfeasance by the PDP candidate.
It also said that the ambassador intentionally issued his threats to place a chilling effect on speeches in Nigeria, which if uttered in America, would be constitutionally protected.

The close relationship AAG has with our customers provides us with a deeper understanding of how retirement can look to different people. We wanted to give the rest of the country a peek behind the curtain to provide a better understanding of these retirement realities, and how they differ by state. To do this, we took data from a number of reliable sources, including the governmental census, AARP and companies that specialize in financial management. Here is what we found.
One of the more obvious realities of retirement is that it takes money to truly enjoy your time off. Many people spend decades saving up for the moment they leave the workforce, and a large number of employers include retirement funding programs in benefit packages. We know that saving for retirement is a decades-long process, and that living costs can sneak up on retirees once they are no longer drawing in their regular paycheck. Take a look at how people in different states stack up when it comes to saving for retirement.
The average retirement savings is high in the northeast, with Delaware in the top spot at $286,277, followed by Connecticut ($279,367) and New Jersey ($272,919). Out west, the average retirement savings is lower in states like Wyoming ($153,182), Oklahoma ($158,139) and Montana ($168,755) due to lower cost of living. Overall, the average retirement savings across all fifty states is approximately $218,181.
While retirees typically migrate to warmer climates after leaving their jobs, we wanted to take a look at what states have the highest percentage of population at retirement age, and how that might affect the industry workforce.
The states that have the highest percentage of upcoming retirees are Georgia (19.9%), Maryland (19.4%) and Wisconsin (18.80%). States with the lowest number of retirees are Florida, Vermont and Alaska. While two of the countries' biggest states, California and Texas, obviously have the largest populations, the percentage of the population in the workforce that is near retirement age is relatively low in comparison to other age groups. New York has 2.5M people in their workforce that are of retirement age, but it only makes up 15% of the population.
After leaving the workforce, many retirees find that they still need a daily purpose, namely volunteering for a local charity or organization. Looking at volunteer rates in the U.S., the top states for retirees to volunteer are Minnesota, Nebraska and Utah. States with the lowest retiree volunteers include Nevada, Hawaii and Louisiana. Whether it be spending time outdoors volunteering at local or National parks, tutoring children at your local school or lending your professional expertise to those in need, there are abundant volunteer opportunities for people that have left the workforce.

Licit Cultivation
Licit cultivation is carried out in India in selected tracts notified by the Central Government annually in the States of Madhya Preadesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. Licences are issued by the CBN to eligible cultivators in the above three States as per the General Conditions relating to Grant of Licence framed by the Central Government. The most important criteria for eligibility is the tendering of certain Minimum Qualifying Yield (MQY) per hectare as fixed by the Central Government annually for the particular crop year. Cultivators who tender the said MQY and fulfill other conditions of the licence prescribed in the General Conditions are eligible for issue of licence.
Licences are issued annually for a crop year which commences from 1st October and ends on 30th September of the following year. CBN issues licences to eligible cultivators for licit cultivation in these notified tracts in October every year. The cultivators are required to tender their entire produce to the Government. For this purpose, the Central Government announces a Minimum Qualifying Yield of certain number of kilogrammes of opium per hectare.
The calendar of activities relating to production of licit opium include -
Finalization of the General Conditions for Grant of License for cultivation of Opium Poppy by the Central Government
September-October
Licensing of farmers and settlement of previous seasons accounts on receipt of General Condition for Grant of License
Measurement and test measurement of licensed fields
3rd Week of December to the end of January
Lancing of opium poppy bulbs for collection of opium gum
Commences generally in February
Checks are conducted regarding the opium produce tendered by the Cultivators
February/ March
Field analysis, weighment, and procurement of opium
Late March/ April
The collected opium is sent to the two Opium factories at Ghazipur and Neemuch for final analysis, drying and processing
OPIUM POPPY CULTIVATION AND PROCEDURE IN INDIA
In India opium poppy cultivation is prohibited, under Section 8 of NDPS Act, 1985, except under a license issued by the Central Bureau of Narcotics under Rule 8 of NDPS Rules, 1985. At present, the licit opium poppy cultivation is permitted by the Govt. of India in Selected Tracts (see tract notification) in three traditionally opium growing States namely Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan. As a signatory to the United Nations Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, 1961 and as a licit producer of opium, India is required to adhere to the regulations under the said convention.
Licences to cultivators to cultivate opium poppy are issued in terms of General Conditions relating to grant of licence notified by the Central Government. The licence for cultivation of opium poppy is granted by the District Opium Officer on receipt of a payment of fee of Rs.25/- only. Normally, the Settlement Operation is held in the month of October-November every year.
The Distt. Opium Officer also appoints a Lambardar on such terms and conditions as have been specified by the Narcotics Commissioner, from a panel of five highest yielding cultivators in a village. A cultivator wise Joint Licence for the village is also issued to him
During the crop year 2013 (i.e. crop year 2013-14), licenses have been issued to those cultivators who had tendered an average yield of not less than 54 Kgs/hectare in MP and Rajasthan and 52 kgs/hectare in UP during the crop year 2012-13.
From the end of December of each year, the CBN officers start exercising statutory control. They measure each and every field to check excess cultivation than the licensed area. This exercise is known as Measurement and is conducted by Sub-Inspector with the help of one Sepoy. The condonable limit in respect of excess in cultivated area shall not exceed 5% of the licensed area. In this connection, the measuring officer record in his field book, joint license and miniature license the details of the excess cultivation. All such cases of measured are exceeding 5% condonable limit are reported immediately to District Opium Officer of the Division and the concerned unit Deputy Narcotics Commissioner. The Deputy Narcotics Commissioner orders re-measurement of all such excess cultivation cases by deputing a gazetted officer and a 'Panchnama' in all such cases is drawn. In case the test-measured area exceeds 5% of the licensed area, action under NDPS Act, 1985 is initiated against such cultivator by the unit Deputy Narcotics Commissioner.
Towards the end of measurement operation a percentage of these fields is taken up for Test Measurement to detect any discrepancies.
Opium crop may suffer some damage due to natural calamity, rains, hailstorm, plant diseases, etc. Such damage occurs prior to lancing the capsules and post lancing. To give relief to those cultivators whose opium crop had been damaged due to natural calamities, they are allowed to get their unlanced damaged crop uprooted under departmental supervision. A cultivator can get his damaged crop uprooted before lancing has commenced provided the area to be uprooted is not less than 10% of the plot, subject to the minimum of one Are (100 Ares = 1 hectare). No uprooting is permitted after lancing has commenced in a particular plot. Partial uprooting is permitted but not in patches. For each partial and full uprooting panchnama are to be drawn and entry made in the joint as well as individual license.
In the month of February-March, the opium capsule is ready for lancing or extraction of opium by incision of opium capsule. The latex that oozes out of the capsule is collected by the cultivator on daily basis and the weight of such opium is recorded in a register called preliminary weighment register (PWR) maintained by the village Lambardar. CBN staff periodically checks the entries in PWR against the physical stock with the cultivator and in case of any discrepancy, action against the cultivator is taken.
The variation between the quantity of opium produced by the cultivator indicated in the Lambardar's record and as found by the proper officer during his check, shall be inquired into by the proper officer in order to ascertain the liability of the cultivator for punishment under Section 19 of the NDPS Act, 1985.
By the end of March, the collection of opium from the plant is almost complete. The opium cultivator is required by law to produce whole opium of the land cultivated with opium poppy to the Distt. Opium Officer. At this time, CBN sets up procurement centers (also known as Weighment Centres) for the collection of this opium. The operation is known as Weighment. Weighment Centres are normally set up within the vicinity of the opium growing villages.
When the opium is tendered, two very small samples are taken for (i) Hot Air Oven testing; (ii) For testing the presence of sugar, starch & gum, etc. The Oven test method basically comprises of drawal of a very small sample from the opium produce of each cultivator and heating of the sample in an oven to evaporate the moisture.
After examination and oven testing, the opium is classified by the Distt. Opium Officer in different grades as per the consistence of opium and the class is announced publicly. The different classes of opium are indicated in the table given below. After weighing the class-wise opium of concerned cultivators, the quantity of opium tendered by the cultivator is converted into quantity at standard consistence i.e. 70ºC and 90% payment to the cultivators is made at the spot itself. The good opium is then sent to the Govt. Opium Factory where it is again tested for its consistence, quality, presence of impurities and adulterants by the chemical staff. On the basis of this final test, the final classification of opium is determined and final payment due to a cultivator is calculated. Accordingly, either the balance payment is made to the cultivator or in case of down-gradation the excess amount is recovered from cultivators.
The opium is classified by the Distt. Opium Officer as per the consistence of the opium and the different class of the opium is as under-
Distinctive Mark
Degree of consistence included in each class
Water Mixed-I (WM-I)
Water Mixed-II (WM-II)
Water Mixed-III (WM-III)
Water Mixed-IV (WM-IV)
50 grams (approx.) sample of opium is drawn from opium produce of each cultivator at Weighment Centre and after having it properly sealed in his presence, it is sent to the Govt. Opium Factory for carrying out further test in the event of any dispute.
Where the cultivator is dis-satisfied with the classification of opium done by the Distt. Opium Officer he may have it forwarded to the Govt. Opium Factory separately, after having it properly sealed in his presence and the presence of the concerned Lambardar.
When opium delivered by a cultivator to the Distt. Opium Officer is suspected of being adulterated with any foreign substance, it is forwarded to the Govt. Opium Factory separately after having it properly sealed in the presence of the cultivator and the concerned Lambardar.
The sealed container of opium so received in the factory is opened and sample for test is drawn thereof in the presence of the cultivator, if he so desires, to whom, a notice intimating the date and time in this behalf is sent well in advance.
Opium of each cultivator is dispatched to opium factory separately in the plastic containers of 20 kgs or 35 kgs capacity as the case may be.
The opium so procured is sent to the Government Opium and Alkaloid Factories situated at Neemuch and Ghazipur. These factories are under the independent control of the Chief Controller of Factories, whose headquarters at Gwalior-New Delhi. (Click here for the addresses and phone numbers of their offices and factories). A part of such opium is converted to Alkaloids for supply to manufacturers of medicines (about 150-200 tons). A large quantity of raw opium is however exported out of India for medicinal purposes.
The main importing countries are USA, Japan, Hungary, UK, France, Thailand.

Enforcement Activities
NARCOTICS LAW
Control over cultivation of Opium and all matters relating to narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances are regulated by the "Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act and Rules" (NDPS Act & Rules). The NDPS Act 1985 has been enacted by the government to combat the illicit trafficking of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, controlled chemicals as specified by the Government. It provides for prosecution of offenders, deterrent punishment and forfeiture of illicit property acquired from drug trafficking. The NDPS Act envisages a multi-agency enforcement system comprising of a number of Central Government enforcement agencies besides the Central Bureau of Narcotics, such as Narcotics Control Bureau, Customs, Central Excise, Para-military Forces as well as State Govt. Agencies like State Police for effective control and prevention of illicit production, manufacture, distribution, trade, etc. of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substance.
Under the aforesaid Act, the Government has also framed the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Rules, 1985 (NDPS Rules, 1985) for effectuating the purpose of the Act. The above Rule govern the various provisions, viz., Opium poppy cultivation and production of opium and poppy straw, Manufacture, Sale and Export of Opium, Manufacture of natural manufactured drugs, Manufacture of synthetic manufactured drugs, Import, Export and Transshipment of NDPS, etc.
Besides the NDPS Act, 1985, the Government also has The "Prevention of Illicit Trafficking in Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances" (PITNDPS) which provides for detention of persons indulging in illicit trafficking of narcotic drugs by the issuance of an Executive Order.
Most of the Indian Provinces/ States have framed their own Rules for the regulation of NDPS within the framework of the Central Government NDPS Act, 1985.

A Queer History of the United States for Young People
by Micheal Bronski, adapted by Richie Chevat
6/11/2019, paperback
Queer history didn't start with Stonewall. This book explores how LGBTQ people have always been a part of our national identity, contributing to the country and culture for over 400 years.
It is crucial for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer youth to know their history. But this history is not easy to find since it's rarely taught in schools or commemorated in other ways. A Queer History of the United States for Young People corrects this and demonstrates that LGBTQ people have long been vital to shaping our understanding of what America is today.
Through engrossing narratives, letters, drawings, poems, and more, the book encourages young readers, of all identities, to feel pride at the accomplishments of the LGBTQ people who came before them and to use history as a guide to the future.
The stories he shares include those of
* Indigenous tribes who embraced same-sex relationships and a multiplicity of gender identities.
* Emily Dickinson, brilliant nineteenth-century poet who wrote about her desire for women.
* Gladys Bentley, Harlem blues singer who challenged restrictive cross-dressing laws in the 1920s.
* Bayard Rustin, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s close friend, civil rights organizer, and an openly gay man.
* Sylvia Rivera, cofounder of STAR, the first transgender activist group in the US in 1970.
* Kiyoshi Kuromiya, civil rights and antiwar activist who fought for people living with AIDS.
* Jamie Nabozny, activist who took his LGBTQ school bullying case to the Supreme Court.
* Aidan DeStefano, teen who brought a federal court case for trans-inclusive bathroom policies.
With over 60 illustrations and photos, a glossary, and a corresponding curriculum, A Queer History of the United States for Young People will be vital for teachers who want to introduce a new perspective to America's story.

The  is a dam on the Tonaka River, a tributary stream of the Misakubo River, itself a tributary of the Ōi River, located in Tenyrū-ku Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Prefecture, on the island of Honshū, Japan.

History
The potential of the Ōi River valley for hydroelectric power development was realized by the Meiji government at the start of the 20th century. The Ōi River was characterized by a high volume of flow and a fast current. Its mountainous upper reaches and tributaries were areas of steep valleys and abundant rainfall, and were sparsely populated. From the 1930s through the 1960s, numerous concrete gravity dams had been constructed on the main flow of the Ōi River, and on its various tributary streams. The remote and steep-walled Misakubo valley was uninhabited, and was designated as the site for a new dam in the early 1960s.

Construction
The Misakubo Dam was constructed to provide water for the 50,000 KW Misakubo Hydroelectric Plant. Construction work began in 1967 and was completed by 1969 by the Hazama Corporation at a cost of 11 billion yen. Unlike other dams on the Ōi River, the Misakubo is a rock-fill dam. Water from the dam is also diverted to the Sakuma Dam, where it provides increased flow to the hydroelectric power plant there.
The Misakubo Reservoir created by the dam has been stocked with carp and Japanese smelt and is a popular fishing location due to its ease of access via Japan National Route 152.

Q: Entity with accepted value of "No Preference" or "none" I have a few entities that are design to get user preferences. However, I would like a user to respond with "either" or "any" or "no preference" to indicate that they have no strong preference either way.
How do I accomplish this? If I train one of the entities to do this, the system will always register those responses to that one entity.
The use case will be based on a question and answer situation. I.e. the bot will ask, "do you have a color preference" and the user should be able to respond with "No"

A: Here's how I would do it, with 3 intents (assuming this is in Dialogflow CX)

*

*color.choose_color: one intent to capture the color given by the user. The training phrases (TPs) would be something like: i'll take the red, give me the green one, i would prefer the yellow...And you'll need to annotate the colors in the TPs to capture them.

*confirmation.no: you should probably have this one in your bot already, if not you'll need to create one soon anyway (in DF CX, it's better to reuse intents whenever possible), the TPs would be: no, nope, i don't... Ideally

*color_confirmation.any: those would be a negative response but specific to the question you asked. The TPs could be: i don't care, any color would work, no preference, either...

On the page where you ask the user the question about the color preference, you can create 3 routes, one for each of those intents. The second and third intents could probably go to the same place.


In the present, you can make a list or a phone call. You can and should pray about all the things you would like to have happen and then you leave it in God's hands.
Surrendering your dreams to God is the best thing you can do for yourself. Once you get out of the business of anxiously looking at the clock, you will find all kinds of joys in your present environment.
Your only true contentment can come from God and the only place we can experience Him is here. Now.

Showing results by author "Colin Thubron"
This is the account of a unique journey – a 600-mile trek on foot around Cyprus in the last year of the island's peace. Colin Thubron intertwines myth, history and personal anecdote in a quest from which the characters and places, architecture and landscape all spring vividly to the listener's ear.
Described by the author as simply 'a work of love', Mirror to Damascus provides an enthralling and fascinating history of Damascus from the Amorites of the Bible to the revolution of 1966, as well as being a charming and witty personal record of a city well-loved. In explaining how modern Damascus is rooted in immemorial layers of culture and tradition, Colin Thubron explores the historical, artistic, social and religious inheritance of the Damascenes in an amusing and perceptive manner.
A few years it became possible, for this first time, for a foreigner to travel Siberia almost at will. This is the account of Thubron's 15, 000-mile journey through this astonishing country - one twelfth of the land surface of the whole earth.
For four months and 500 miles, Colin Thubron walked the mountains of Lebanon, following tracks and rivers. His journey was not only a survey of a remarkable country but a quest for the gods and divinities who held the secrets of death and rebirth in the land's ancient cults. He visited almost every place of cultural importance and lived with the people along his way, recording a country of outstanding natural scenery, rich with a unique medley of races and religions.
"It began with a spark." A house is burning. Its six tenants include a failed priest, a naturalist, a neurosurgeon and an invalid dreaming of his anxious boyhood. Their landlord's relationship with them is both intimate and shadowy. At times he shares their preoccupations and memories. He will also share their fate. In Night of Fire the passions and obsessions of these unquiet lives reach beyond the dying house that holds them. Ranging from an African refugee camp to the cremation-grounds of India, their memories mutate and criss-cross in a novel of lingering beauty and mystery.
Among the Russians is a marvellous account of a solitary journey by car from St. Petersburg and the Baltic States south to Georgia and Armenia. A gifted writer and intrepid traveller, Thubron grapples with the complexities of Russian identity and relays his extraordinary journey in characteristically lyrical style. This is an enthralling and revealing account of the habits and idiosyncrasies of a fascinating nation, along with a sharp and insightful social commentary on Russian life.
Having learned Mandarin, and travelling alone by foot, bicycle, and train, Colin Thubron set off on a 10,000-mile journey from Beijing to Tibet, starting from a tropical paradise near the Burmese border and reaching the windswept wastes of the Gobi desert and the far end of the Great Wall. What Thubron reveals is an astonishing diversity, a land whose still unmeasured resources strain to meet an awesome demand, and an ancient people still reeling from the devastation of the Cultural Revolution.

You've Got to Pick a Pocket or Two è una canzone del musical di Lionel Bart del 1960 Oliver! e dell'omonimo film del 1968. Il musical, debuttato nel West End londinese, è tratto dal romanzo di Charles Dickens Le avventure di Oliver Twist.

Nel musical
La canzone viene cantata nella quinta scena del primo atto del musical, quando il Dritto conduce Oliver, appena arrivato a Londra, nel covo di Fagin. Oliver crede inizialmente che il luogo in cui Fagin vive con gli altri bambini sia una lavanderia (a causa del gran numero di fazzoletti appesi ovunque), mentre la verità è ben diversa: Fagin è un anziano malfattore che insegna ai bambini a rubare senza farsi notare per diventare maestri nel taccheggio.

Fagin, nella canzone, spiega ad Oliver e al pubblico la propria filosofia di vita e, travestitosi da ricco signore, fa far esercizio ai bambini: questi infatti dovranno rubargli un orologio da taschino, il portafoglio e vari fazzoletti senza che lui se ne accorga.

La canzone, così come l'assolo di Fagin del secondo atto Reviewing the Situation, ha una melodia tipicamente e marcatamente ebraica, proprio a sottolineare le origini del personaggio di Fagin.

Betsey Wittick met me at a purple, open-sided shed on the eastern edge of Laughing Crow Farm. Her four acres are part of the Day Road Farmland Trust, an area protected by the City of Bainbridge from urban development. While waiting for Betsey to come out of the main farmhouse, I walked around and noted the garlic and potato beds near the house, the chickens in their coop making those low, rusty gate sounds that people find so comforting.
As we talked, Betsey stood and polished bell peppers to an emerald glow for market the next day. She reminds me of the woman in the 'Rosie the Riveter' poster from World War II, not just in her looks, but her innate sense of capability. You could leave your car, your toaster or your chicken here, and she would fix it. I faced southwest across sunny fields towards the Bainbridge Winery vineyards, adjacent to Betsey's farm. The gusting wind turned the grape leaves over to show their pale undersides. The terrain here, at the midpoint of the island, is a series of low, open hills, entirely different from where I live. I held my papers down as I wrote.
"We don't really know what will happen with climate change," she answered cautiously. "It may be warmer, it may be wetter. I think there will be more variability. Industrial agriculture developed during a few hundred years of climate stability, but now it is fluctuating. Farmers can't invest in large-scale industry and equipment unless they know that the crop they are cultivating is viable. Before industrial agriculture, there was greater diversity – you didn't put all your eggs in one basket.

Q: Maximum value of $a^2c^3+b^2d^3$. Let $a,b,c,d$ be non negative real numbers such that $a^5 + b^5 \le 1$ and $c^5 + d^5 \le 1$. Find the maximum possible value of $a^2c^3 + b^2d^3$.
I tried using AM, GM and some other basic inequalities but they were of no use. Need some hints.

A: It can be done easily with Holder's inequality, with $p=5/2, q=5/3$ and $u=(a^2,b^2), v=(c^3,d^3)$ then:
$$\begin{align}a^2c^3+b^2d^3 &= |(a^2c^3,b^2d^3)|_1\\&\leq |(a^2,b^2)|_p |(c^3,d^3)|_q \\&= (a^5+b^5)^{2/5}(c^5+d^5)^{3/5}\leq 1
\end{align}$$
It now suffices to find a case where it is equal to $1$, which is pretty easy to do.

A more elementary approach is to use AM/GM and get that:
$$\frac{2}{5}a^5+\frac{3}{5}c^5= \frac{1}{5}(a^5+a^5+c^5+c^5+c^5)\geq \sqrt[5]{a^{10}c^{15}} = a^2c^3$$
Similarly:
$$\frac{2}{5}b^5+\frac{3}{5}d^5\geq  b^2d^3$$
Adding you get:
$$1 = \frac{2}{5}+\frac{3}{5}\geq \frac{2}{5}(a^5+b^5)+\frac{3}{5}(c^5+d^5)\geq a^2c^3+b^2d^3$$

A: Let $M=\{(a,b,c,d)\in (\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0})^4 \ : \ a^5+b^5\leq 1, c^5+d^5\leq 1 \}$. Consider
$$ f: \ M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}, \ f(a,b,c,d)= a^2 c^3+b^2 d^3.$$
The derivative is
$$ \nabla f(a,b,c,d)=( 2ac^3, 2bd^2, 3a^2c^3, 3b^2d^2).$$
If the maximum was attained in the interior of $M$, then its gradient vanishes. However,
$$ (0,0,0,0)=\nabla f(a,b,c,d)=( 2ac^3, 2bd^2, 3a^2c^3, 2b^2d)$$
implies that $a=0, b=0$ or $a=0,d=0$ or $c=0,b=0$ or $c=0,d=0$. Clearly, this does not give us a maximum. Hence, the maximum lies on the boundary of $M$.
We are on the boundary, if at least one of $a,b,c,d$ is equal zero (which by the same argument will not give a maximum) or if we are in the following set
$$ \{(a,b,c,d)\in (\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0})^4 \ : \ a^5+b^5= 1 \} \cup \{(a,b,c,d)\in (\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0})^4 \ : \ c^5+d^5= 1 \}.$$
On this set we either have $a=(1-b^5)^{1/5}$ or $c= (1-d^5)^{1/5}$. Thus, we can consider
$$ f_1(b,c,d)=f((1-b^5)^{1/5}, b,c,d) $$
respectively
$$ f_2(a,b,d)=f(a,b,(1-d^5)^{1/5},d)$$
and move on with the analysis. Computing the gradient again, we finally can assume $a=(1-b^5)^{1/5}$ and $c= (1-d^5)^{1/5}$. Thus, we have to consider the map
$$ f_3(b,d)= f((1-b^5)^{1/5}, b, (1-d^5)^{1/5}, d) = (1-b^5)^{2/5}\cdot (1-d^5)^{3/5} + b^2\cdot d^3.  $$
on the domain $[0,1]\times [0,1]$. For $0<b,d< 1$ we can compute the gradient
\begin{align*}
\nabla f_3(b,d)&= \left(\frac{2}{5}\cdot \frac{-5b^4}{(1-b^5)^{3/5}}(1-d^5)^{3/5} +2bd^3, (1-b^5)^{2/5}\cdot \frac{3}{5}\frac{-5d^4}{(1-d^5)^{2/5}}+3b^2 d^2\right) \\
&= \left(2b\cdot \left(\frac{-b^3}{(1-b^5)^{3/5}}(1-d^5)^{3/5} +d^3\right), 3d\cdot \left(-(1-b^5)^{2/5}\cdot \frac{d^3}{(1-d^5)^{2/5}}+b^2 d \right)\right) \\
&= \left( 2b \cdot \left(-b^3\cdot\left(\frac{1-d^5}{1-b^5} \right)^{3/5}+d^3 \right), 3d^2\cdot \left( -d^2 \cdot \left( \frac{1-b^5}{1-d^5} \right)^{2/5}  +b^2 \right)\right)
\end{align*}
Hence, the gradient vanishes iff (as $0<b,d<1$)
$$ d= b\cdot \left( \frac{1-d^5}{1-b^5} \right)^{1/5} \quad \text{ and } \quad b= d\cdot \left( \frac{1-b^5}{1-d^5} \right)^{1/5}.$$
Assume $b>d$, then (as $0<b,d <1)$ we have
$$ 0< \frac{1-b^5}{1-d^5} <1,$$
which implies
$$ b = d\cdot \left( \frac{1-b^5}{1-d^5} \right)^{1/5} < d. $$
Which is a contradiction. By symmetrie we get $b=d$. In this case we get
$$f_3(b,b)=(1-b^5)+ b^5=1.$$
One easily checks that for $b=0,1$ or $d=0,1$ we still have $f_3(b,d)\leq 1$.
Hence, $\max_{(a,b,c,d)\in M} f(a,b,c,d)=1$.

I have travelled extensively and have a lot of experience with plateau tours. Guides and drivers. The service from west China and Explore Tibet were superb. Denzin and Yongphel were unbelievably attentive. Patient, kind, informative. Friendly and accommodating. Even with 15 hour days. They were always smiling, and attentive. Congratulations on a superb tour.
And Yongphel was unbelievable patient ,energetic and helpful in helping me purchase all my Tibetan presents.


In Mid90's all the earnestness and authenticity threatens to turn the film into a museum piece, a documentary about the hangout habits of skater youth. All the stoner and hip hop accents pile up in familiar, and at times, unintelligible layers. The aimlessness too, until the plot and tribal mechanics click in forcing realization, confrontation and inevitable separation.
Stevie (Sunny Suljic) is the low level initiate whose rite of passages are on view under the specimen slide. He is the only one who displays attention, devotion, and a modicum of insight. If he didn't exist this loose gang would have no ambition, no drive to go anywhere. Although, Stevie's home life wavers between motherly ennui, parental concern and heaps of older sibling verbal, mental and physical abuse, at least it has a dramatic structure.
Suljic performance is the only one in the cast that doesn't feel forced, over earnest and effected— the only one that exists and rises above standard character types. It is an odd creative misstep from actor turned director Jonah Hill.
It is easy to fall and get back up when there is no real force in the way to keep you down.
