Q: Are websockets implemented in SignalR+UWP? In the following documentation from 8 months ago Microsoft claims that Websocket usage by SignalR in a UWP/.NET application is not implemented:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/signalr/overview/getting-started/supported-platforms
This is surprising as the UWP platform has an implementation of the WebSocket standard. I wish to use SignalR for duplex communication between a UWP application running on a HoloLens (the client) and a WPF application (the server). Rather than assuming that SignalR can use the WebSockets transport layer in this configuration I thought someone in the community might know for sure. The multiple frameworks and documentation are making it difficult to figure out for those new to this sort of thing.

Commission of Truth Releases Report in Honduras
By jennya October 3, 2012 Honduras Accompaniment ProjectHuman Rights
The Friendship Office Congratulates the Commission of Truth and the people of Honduras on the publication of a historic report on the 2009 coup d'état and deepening human rights crisis.
The report, "The Voice of Greatest Authority is that of the Victims" (this is a link to the report in Spanish) was presented today in Tegucigalpa, and presentations will be made in three other cities. The work of the Commission of Truth was carried out in the midst of an active conflict that rages on in Honduras, continuing to claiming lives of those who defend human rights and struggle to end impunity. Investigators, staff and Commissioners were targets of threats and attacks themselves, and repeatedly called on the international community to speak out for the right of victims to give testimony and to seek the truth without threat of reprisal.
Conclusions outlined in the report include:
-The 2009 coup d'état has resulted in the systematic violation of human rights and fundamental freedoms through state actions and omission, a crisis which persists and is deepening.
-Crimes against humanity were committed with the complicity of the Honduran Judicial System.
-Terror is used by the state as a policy of social control, including groups operating as deaths squads. Abuses on the part of police and military are part of state policy.
-The amnesty decreed in January 2010 is a policy of impunity; prosecution of the military Commanders responsible for the coup d'état should be re-opened. Impunity enjoyed by those responsible for flagrant human rights violations from earlier periods, especially though not exclusively the 1980's, is a key factor in the repetition of violations.
The Commission expressed deep concern about the role of an alarming increase in presence of U.S. economic, military and security forces in Honduras since the coup, stating that,
The danger facing the people of Honduras is linked to U.S. policy. All military and security agreements with the United States should be ended; existing military bases closed, plans for new bases canceled, all programs for training and equipment suspended.
Please share the report and these concerns with your members of Congress. Underscore that it is time to face the truth about U.S. policy in Honduras. The report will be available in English in several weeks.
Thank you for all you do to help spread the truth.

There are few things as refreshing as a dip into a cool swimming pool on a hot Oklahoma summer day. Thousands of Oklahoma City and Tulsa children spends hours during the hot summer months playing in public pools, apartment complex pools, private pools and water parks. A safe and well maintained swimming pool can provide hours of fun and entertainment for your friends and family. Unfortunately, the luxury of a pool can quickly become a hazard if it is not maintained correctly. Sadly, not all pools are properly maintained. Each year, over 1,000 children (a quarter of which are under the age of 5) die in swimming related accidents. Another 5,000 others are hospitalized. Another 200 children die in spas and whirlpools.
Oklahoma swimming pool accidents are all too common. The reality is that children are drawn to water and do not realize the terrible danger pools can pose. Many times children are over confident because they know how to swim. Just because a child knows how to swim does not mean they are safe. Close supervision of young children is vital whether you are at a home pool, resort pool, public pool or apartment complex pool. Children should be supervised every second while in and around the pool. Unfortunately that does not always happen and when it doesn't, it is important that the pool owners have taken proper precautions to protect the swimmers.
Failure to maintain self-latching and closing gates that keep young children from entering pool area. Although all swimming pools must be compliant with the local building code requirements, the unfortunate reality is that many are not across Oklahoma. Swimming pool injuries are often caused by residential homes that lack a safety fences which should be at least 4 feet high and contain a self-closing and self-latching gate. That is simply inexcusable! Some pools that do have gates, have pool furniture so close to the gate that children can use it to climb up and unlatch the gate by themselves. Such easy access often leads to disaster.
Failure to maintain pool logs as required by state laws.
Vacuum drains that do not have proper covers can cause serious or fatal results. The Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act, which went into effect in December of 2008, requires all public pool owners to install a drain cover that complies with standards set forth by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). In addition, if the pool has a single main drain (other than an unblockable drain), the operator must either disable the drain or install a second anti-entrapment device or system. This can take the form of an automatic shut-off system, gravity drainage system, Safety Vacuum Release System (SVRS) or suction-limiting vent system. Apartment complex owners that fail to meet these new standards open themselves up to liability if a child is injured or drowns in the apartment's pool.
Lack of safety equipment on hand such as shepard hooks and ring buoys with throw ropes. Shepard's hooks and safety equipment like throw ropes and buoys are essential life saving equipment that may be used to rescue swimmers who need help. Failure to have such items available is comparable to a fire truck lacking a hose. Such equipment is imperative.
Lack of flotation safety lines separating deep and shallow areas of pool.
Unclear depth markers that prevent swimmers from knowing what the depth of the pool is. Poorly marked depth zones, unsafe diving boards and improperly supervised swimming areas can pose a significant risk. Spinal cord injury, nonfatal drowning induced brain damage and death are all possible if proper safety measures are not followed. Proper signage should be present to notify all participants of the pool depth. If pool depth is not noted, severe head and neck injury could result. A pool owner may be negligent if he or she fails to post adequate warnings regarding water depth.
Inattentive and untrained Life Guards. Keeping a close eye on your children in large, crowded pools can be very challenging. As a result, water parks are required to hire and properly train a minimum number of lifeguards and other personnel to keep children safe while using the park's facilities. When lifeguards are not properly trained or the park is not adequately staffed, the park can and should be held legally liable.
Defective pool equipment such as filters and pool pumps that affect water clarity. Water clarity is critical. For a pool to be in compliance with local laws, you MUST be able to clearly see the drain of the pool in the deepest part. Water clarity is essential for rescue efforts of children submerged and in need of help. When a pool owner allows that pool to become murky over time, a drowning accident can occur. This is because it is difficult to see a child or adult on the bottom of the pool in murky water.
Lack of pool ladders that allow easy exit from pools. Swimmers get tired, especially young ones. Many do not lack the upper body strength to pull themselves up and out of the water even if they are able to reach it to the side. Easily accessible pool ladders are critical to ensure property safety precautions.
Emergency phone near pool not working or non-existent. Nobody wants an accident to occur. But when ones does happen, having a working telephone available to call for emergency services is critical. When a swimmer has been underwater every second counts! Having to take the time to retrieve a phone from a remote location so that 911 can be called is negligence.
Overcrowded pools with too many people in the pool at one time. Even a well trained lifeguard can only watch so many people at once. An overcrowded pool is a receipt for disaster.
Defective and inadequate pool lights. Many times the swimming party goes into the evening hours. When that occurs, it is critical that adequate pool lighting is present. Failure to have proper lighting can lead to disaster.
Near drownings can cause severe brain damage, memory problems and learning disorders.
Near drownings can cause death at a later time due to complications of the chemistry in the lungs.
About 350 children under the age of 5 drown in pools each year.
Another 2,600 are treated in hospitals for near-drowning incidents.
Drowning is the 2nd leading cause of death after auto accidents for children under the age of 5.
Drowning is the 2nd leading cause of death for all children between the ages of 1 and 14.
A majority of drowning accidents occur in backyard pools.
In 2004 males accounted for 78% of accident fatal drownings.
Of all the children under the age of 5, 26% of the annual deaths are the cause of accidental drownings.
For those with seizure disorders, drowning is the number 1 cause of death. Most deaths occur in bathtubs.
Alcohol is involved in 25% to 50% of teenage and adult fatal drowning accidents.
Remember to use extreme caution when participating in any type of water recreation whether you are swimming laps in your backyard, or out boating on a lake.
If you or a loved one is a victim of a poolside or other aquatic accident, it may be important to contact a lawyer who can help you protect your legal rights. Please keep in mind that there may be time limits within which you must commence suit. Please do not hesitate to email or contact McIntyre Law for a qualified swimming pool accident attorney in Oklahoma. We are here to help.


Thus random phone interviews were conducted to screen individuals for target market fit. Eventually, 50 people were paid to participate in the study. In addition, a lottery outcome decided which ten study participants would be awarded with the PDA that received their respective highest evaluation. Since Netlink did not anticipate all prospective customers to be sufficiently knowledgeable about the eight different products of the study (including the prototype-status only Connector), all participants were exposed to the all the handhelds and the advertising for them during the study.

One of the best novels ever written, in a chic new deluxe edition
Orphaned Jane Eyre endures an unhappy childhood, hated by her aunt and cousins and then sent to comfortless Lowood School. But life there improves and Jane stays on as a teacher, though she still longs for love and friendship. At Mr Rochester's house, where she goes to work as a governess, she hopes she might have found them - until she learns the terrible secret of the attic.
Pub date: 20 December 2010
Charlotte Bronte was born on 21 April 1816. Her father was curate of Haworth, Yorkshire, and her mother died when she was five years old, leaving five daughters and one son. In 1824 Charlotte, Maria, Elizabeth and Emily were sent to Cowan Bridge, a school for clergymen's daughters, where Maria and Elizabeth both caught tuberculosis and died. The children were taught at home from this point on and together they created vivid fantasy worlds which they explored in their writing. Charlotte worked as a teacher from 1835 to 1838 and then as a governess. In 1846, along with Emily and Anne, Charlotte published Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell.After this Emily wrote Wuthering Heights, Anne wrote Agnes Grey and Charlotte wrote The Professor. Wuthering Heights and Agnes Grey were both published but Charlotte's novel was initially rejected. In 1847 Jane Eyre became her first published novel and met with immediate success. Between 1848 and 1849 Charlotte lost her remaining siblings: Emily, Branwell and Anne. She published Shirley in 1849, Villette in 1853 and in 1854 she married the Rev. Arthur Bell Nicholls. She died the next year, on 31 March 1855.
Charlotte Bronte was born at Thornton, Yorkshire, in 1816. Her mother died in 1821, and Charlotte, her four sisters, Maria, Elizabeth, Emily and Anne, and her brother Branwell were left in the care of their aunt, Elizabeth Branwell. Left to pursue their education mainly at home, all the Bronte children became involved in a rich fantasy life and Charlotte and Branwell collaborated in the invention of the imaginary kingdom of Angria. In 1824 Charlotte went with Maria, Elizabeth and Emily to a school for daughters of the clergy; her experiences there are fictionalized in the Lowood section of Jane Eyre (1847; written under the pseudonym of Currer Bell). She wrote three other novels, Shirey (1849) Vilette (1853) and She Professor (published posthumously in 1857). She also made occasional visits to London where she became known to various writers, including William Thackeray and Elizabeth Gaskell. In 1854 Charlotte finally overcame her father's objections and married, but unfortunately she was to die in the following year.

As you probably know, there are very few people around who know how to repair or unjam an antique slot machine. If you do find someone then it is a hassle to either get the machine to them or convince them to come to the machine. In either case, it will probably cost at least $75.
While most antique slot machines are very reliable, they are 100% mechanical. It is not a matter of if they will jam, only a matter of when. In addition, Murphy's Law states the machine will jam at the least opportune time (like just before a party).
Based on all the calls and email that I get regarding jammed slot machines, I thought it might be useful to produce some videos on how to unjam some of the more common styles of antique slot machines. Describing how to do it in an email or over the phone can be very difficult. It is much easier to SHOW you how to do it.
By popular request, all of the videos are available on a single DVD.
Not only do I show how to fix most common jams. I also show how to remove the mechanism from the case, cycle the mechanism outside the case, and put the mechanism back in the case.

Crowdfunded spacecraft LightSail 2 prepares to go sailing on sunlight
Full Gamut Radio 0 Comments June 24, 2019 June 24, 2019 News
Among the many spacecraft and satellites ascending to space on Monday's Falcon Heavy launch, the Planetary Society's LightSail 2 may be the most interesting. If all goes well, a week from open it will be moving through gap — slowly, but surely — on nothing more than the force utilized on it by sunlight.
LightSail 2 doesn't have solar-powered engines, or use solar power or heat for some secondary purpose; it will literally be propelled by the physical personnel of photons thumping its stupendou glistening skipper. Not solar puff, attention you — that's a different happening altogether.
It's an idea, clarified Planetary Society CEO and accepted Science Guy Bill Nye said in a press call ahead of the launch, that goes back centuries.
NASA items Deep Space Atomic Clock and other experiments propelling on SpaceX Falcon Heavy
" It genuinely goes back to the 1600 s ," he said; Kepler deduced that a personnel from the sunlight must motive comet fannies and other outcomes, and" he ruminated that brave beings would the working day voyage the void ."
So they might, as recently held astronomers and operators have contemplated the possibility more seriously.
" I was introduced to this in the 1970 s, in the disco age. I was in Carl Sagan's astronomy class … wow, 42 year ago, and he talked about solar voyage ," Nye recalled." I attached the Planetary Society when it was formed in 1980, and we've been talking about solar voyages around here ever since then. It's really a dreamy notion that has awesome practical applications; there are just a few operations that solar skippers are perfectly ideal for ."
Those would chiefly be long-term, medium-orbit goals where a spacecraft needs to stay in an Earth-like orbit, but still get a little distance away from the residence planet — or, in the future, long-distance duties where slow and steady acceleration from the daylight or a laser would be more practical than another propulsion method.
Mission profile
The eagle-eyed among you have been able to recognized the "2" in the name of the mission. LightSail 2 is indeed the second of its type; the first launched in 2015, but was not planned to be anything more than a test deployment that they are able to blaze up after a week or so.
That mission had some setbacks, with the voyage not deploying to its full scope and a computer glitch compromising communications with the craft. It was not "ve been meaning to" fly via solar voyage, and did not.
" We mail the CubeSat up, we checked out the radio, its communications, the overall electronics, and we distributed the sail and we got a picture of that distributed sail in space ," said COO Jennifer Vaughn." That was purely a deployment test; no solar voyaging has just taken place ."
The spacecraft itself, minus the sail, of course.
But it paved the highway for its successor, which will strive this fantastical form of transportation. Other craft have done so, most notably JAXA's IKAROS mission to Venus, which was quite a bit larger — though as LightSail 2′ s designers said , not nearly as efficient as their craft — and had a very different mission.
The brand new spacecraft, loaded onto a 3U CubeSat enclosure — that's about the dimensions of the a loaf of bread — is piggybacking on an Air Force payload going up to an altitude of about 720 kilometers. There it will detach and float freely for a week to get away from the rest of the warheads being released.
Once it's safely on its own, it will fire out from its carrier workmanship and begin to unfurl the skipper. From that loaf-sized package will surface an plain of contemplative Mylar with an area of 32 square meters — about the dimensions of the a boxing ring.
Inside the spacecraft's body is also what's called a reaction wheel, which can be spun up or slowed down in order to impart the opposite force on the plane, compelling it to change its stance in space. By this method LightSail 2 will repeatedly orient itself so that the photons affecting it spur it in the desired direction, nudging it into the desired orbit.
1 HP( housefly influence) engine
The thrust developed, the team explained, is very small — as you might expect. Photons have no mass, but they do( somehow) have momentum. Not a lot, must be ensured, but it's greater than zero, and that's what counts.
" In words of the amount of force that solar adversity is going to exert on us, it's on the micronewton statu ," said LightSail project manager Dave Spencer." It's very tiny compared against chemical propulsion, very small even compared to electric propulsion. But the key for solar sailing is that it's always there ."
" I have numerous counts that I love ," cut in Nye, and detailed one of them:" It's nine micronewtons per square meter. So if "youve had" 32 square meters you get about a hundred micronewtons. It doesn't sound like much, but as Dave points out, it's endless. Once a rocket engine stops, when it runs out of fuel, it's done. But a solar sail gets a incessant thrust day and night. Wait …"( He then argued with himself about whether it would experience light — it will, as you see in the persona below .)
Bruce Betts, primary scientist for LightSail, chimed in as well, to originate the numbers a little bit more relatable:" The total thrust on the voyage is approximately equal to the weight of a live fly on your hand on Earth ."
Yet if "youve added" another fly every second for hours at a time, pretty soon you've got a really significant quantity of acceleration going on. This mission is meant to find out whether we can capture that force.
" We're very excited about this launch ," said Nye," because we're going to get to a high enough altitude to is removed from the flavor, far enough away that we'll actually gonna be able to build orbital energy and make some, I hope, inducing characterizations ."
Second craft, same( predominantly) as the last
The LightSail going up this week has some positive developments over the last one, though overall it's mainly the same — and a relatively simple, inexpensive craft at that, the team noted. Crowdfunding and donations over the last decade have plied quite a bit of currency to pursue this project, but it still is only a small fraction of what NASA might have spent on a same operation, Spencer pointed out.
" This mission is going to be much more robust than the previous LightSail 1, but as we said previously, it's done by a small team ," he said." We've had a very small budget relative to our NASA counterparts, probably 1/20 th of its own budget that a similar NASA mission would have. It's a low-cost spacecraft ."

But the improvements are specifically meant to address the main problems encountered by LightSail 2′ s predecessor.
Firstly, the computer inside has been upgraded to be more robust( though not radiation-hardened) and given the ability to sense defects and reboot if necessary — they won't sitting up here, as they did for LightSail 1, for a random cosmic particles to disturb personal computers and generate a" natural reboot ."( Yes, really .)
The deployment of the voyage itself has also improved. The previous one only extended to about 90% of its full thicknes and couldn't be adjusted after the facts of the case. Subsequently assessments have been done, Betts told me, to accurately determine how many revolts the engine required to make to extend the sail to 100 %. Not exclusively that, but the government has made commemorates on the broaden thunders or perches that will help double check how deployment has gone.
" We also have the capability on orbit, if it looks like it's not fully increased, we can extend it a little bit more ," he said.
Once it's all out there, it's uncharted province. No one has attempted to do this kind of mission, even IKAROS, which had a totally different flight profile. The squad is hoping their sensors and software are up to the task — and it should be clear whether that's the case within a few hours of unfolding the sail.
It's still mainly an experiment, of course, and what the team learns from this they will put into any future LightSail duty they attempt, but too share it with the spaceflight community and others attempting to sail on sunlight.
" We all know one another and we all share information ," said Nye." And it really is — I've said it as much as I can — it's really exciting to be flying this thing at last. It's almost 2020 and we've been talking about it for, well, for 40 years. It's very, very cool ."
LightSail 2 will launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy not earlier than June 24 th. Keep an see on the site for the latest news and a link to the live stream when it's almost experience for takeoff.

Liberal MP Who Voted Against Removing Carbon Tax From Food Supply Chain Is Now Complaining About Food Prices
InsightSpencerFernando January 4, 2023
Refuse to provide relief to Canadians, and then complain afterwards…
Like many Canadians, Michael Coteau is shocked by high food prices:
"This is completely unacceptable! Almost $40 for 5 pieces of chicken.
There is no way Loblaws can justify this?"
There is no way Loblaws can justify this? https://t.co/36qMFvQEWI
— Michael Coteau (@coteau) January 4, 2023
Unlike many Canadians however, Couteau is in a position to do something about it directly.
Coteau is the Liberal MP for the riding of Don Valley East.
The party Coteau is a part of has been imposing policies that raise food prices.
Among those policies is the carbon tax, which impacts all aspects of the food supply chain.
After all, the carbon tax is explicitly designed to drive up prices and thus reduce consumption.
In real terms, it makes Canadians poorer, and does so in order to supposedly 'save the planet.'
As an MP, and as someone who is ostensibly worried about food prices, Coteau had a great opportunity to take action on December 8th of 2022.
On that day, a Conservative motion was being voted on that would have removed the carbon tax from the food supply chain in Canada.
Here is the text of the motion:
"That, given that,
(i) Canada's Food Price Report 2023 states that a typical farm will pay $150,000 in carbon tax per year when the carbon tax is tripled,
(ii) families will pay an additional $1,065 for groceries in 2023 for a total of $16,288 due to increased costs being passed on to consumers,
(iii) food bank visits were at an all-time high reaching 1.5 million in March 2022, a 15% increase from the previous year according to Food Banks Canada,
(iv) 20% of Canadians are skipping meals and grocery price inflation is at 11%,
the House call on the government to cancel the carbon tax that is applied to all food inputs and production, including:
(a) all farm fuels;
(b) grain drying;
(c) fertilizer;
(d) transportation; and
(e) other appropriate aspects of the food supply system."
Well, surely Coteau must have voted for the motion, given his public concern over high food prices!
He voted against it:
The Liberals & NDP voted down the motion, and the carbon tax thus still applies to the food supply chain in Canada, driving up prices at a time when Canadians are desperately seeking relief.
What this makes clear is the Liberal government has decided on a crass and manipulative 'strategy' to deal with high food prices and inflation:
Make it worse, pretend to have nothing to do with it, complain and blame it on private corporations.
The Liberals & NDP are now singing from the same song sheet, blaming grocery chains for high prices in an effort to distract from the role that massive government spending and tax hikes have played in making everything more expensive.
Whether Canadians end up giving in to that manipulative message will go a long way in deciding whether people will vote for a change in government, or stick with the same policies that have made life so expensive.

Bournemouth Liberal Democrats Working hard for Bournemouth, Alderney & Bourne Valley
Bournemouth Conference 2017
Posted by Philip Dunn | Updated 2017-09-20
Bournemouth has played host to another record-breaking conference this month. With thousands of members from across the country having their say on the future direction of the party, Bournemouth's two parliamentary spokesmen were front and centre in a number of debates.
Crucial votes were held on public sector pay, recruitment and retention of teachers, tackling gun and knife crime, combatting terrorism and radicalisation, and many other topics. The beauty of these debates being that, if you are a Liberal Democrat member, YOU get a vote and every vote is equal.
One of the most eagerly anticipated debates considered our future relationship with the EU and conference voted overwhelmingly to retain our pledge to give the British people the final say on whatever deal is offered at the end of the Brexit process. Needless to say, it was confirmed unanimously that we will continue to campaign hard to remain IN the EU.
If YOU want to be a part of that fight, join us! NO OTHER PARTY has its entire national membership AND parliamentary parties on board with this aim to protect our country from the damage that will be caused by Brexit.

QSFer R.R. Angell has a new gay sci fi short out: In The Space of Nine Lives.
A pilot on an interstellar colony ship has a conflict between choice and destiny.
Originally published in Asimov's SF magazine, this story is about a boy and his boyfriend on an interstellar colony ship and how love can shape the direction of a life and a civilization. ebook and print.
"Pilot?" Tom called as he ran.
Past the galley, the door to Pilot's sim chamber was open. Tom ducked inside, feeling the empty chamber pushing him gently away. He was too happy to care, full of energy and good news. He raced around the habitat, calling out for Pilot.
Pilot was in his quarters, sitting quietly on his bed. Widget, partially wrapped in a towel, lay beside him.
"How?" Tom stared. Her fur looked dull and flat against her bones. He didn't want to touch her.
Pilot pulled him close, stroked his hair. The warm strength of Pilot soothed him.
This embrace, familiar and comforting, was so different from Mark's electric touch.
Tom touched the lifeless body, and pulled back as emotions tumbled through him. He wouldn't cry.
"Little one," Pilot said, cradling Tom's head against his shoulder. They hadn't hugged like this in over a year. At fifteen, Tom was bigger, lanky, and almost as tall as Pilot. His thoughts turned to Mark, and he pulled away.
"Mark and I," he began, then shook his head, suddenly private.
Tom wanted to say that he and Mark had camped out in the field last night. Their thick blanket pressed down the tall grasses, making a kind of room. The stars had shown like sparks winking around the brilliant moon. They had run naked to the pond, chasing each other, swimming in moonlit shallows. The silvered water caressed and held them together. A meteor shower had splashed across the sky.
He was in love, but Pilot already knew. So he said nothing.
Tom followed him out and up the access tube to the hub. Floating down the corridor, Tom glanced at the disposal unit with its smashed button, and hurried himself along ahead of Pilot. Before, only Pilot could open the Con door. Now the door opened as Tom approached, swinging toward him in welcome.
He eagerly strapped himself into the copilot's station, taking in the colorful holographic displays showing the visual status of the ion fountain drive, and a view of the unmoving stars. For a long time he stared, looking for the slightest movement out there, until Pilot interrupted.
Tom moved his chair to the console and grasped the controls. The Crèche helped him guide the calipers across an array of frozen ampoules. He hesitated.
Tom guided the unit up and to the right, and found a cluster of missing ampoules there. No, he thought, somewhere else, somewhere new. Tom selected a vial from the lower left quadrant and slipped it into the injector. The system took over and released him.
"Very good. This egg will grow into our new Widget. She will be born then," Pilot said, indicating a new tick on the timeline above them.
"Of course. I've known four Widgets in my life," Pilot said. "Uninterrupted, they live for fourteen years." Pilot frowned.

10 years and running: Turkish Airlines celebrates a decade of service to Toronto
Date: Jul 12 2019
TORONTO — Turkish Airlines celebrated its 10th year in the Canadian market with close to 300 travel agents, industry partners and government officials at a glitzy dinner in Toronto.
Speaking to guests, Zafer Bolukbasi, the airline's General Manager in Toronto, said there is much to celebrate during this important milestone. "We could not have reached this level of success without fantastic Canadian travel agencies who love our brand, partners that provide the highest level of service and catering, and most importantly, the best customers in the world who trust us time and time again to deliver them to their destination, whether for business, family reunification, adventure or relaxation."
Turkish Airlines' decade-long journey in Canada began with flights to Pearson International Airport. It now services the Canadian market out of both Toronto and Montreal.
Bolukbasi also delivered a message to those in attendance: Widen Your World, a mantra that resonates with Canadians who are known for their sense of adventure.
The dinner also saw the debut of a special exhibit, 'Take Your Seat, Turkey', and included a keynote address by global photographer Randy VanDerStarren.
"We are delighted to celebrate our 10th anniversary in Toronto and we look forward to the next decade," added Bolukbasi. "Turkish Airlines keeps enhancing its flight network and invites all passengers from around the world to discover new cultures and destinations while experiencing the unique hospitality of Turkish Airlines at every stage of their journey."

Eoin de Buitléar | Rising star from An Cheathrú Rua
E.deBuitlear
The name de Buitléar is one familiar to Connacht Rugby over the last few seasons. Colm de Buitléar made himself known to supporters at The Sportsground on the wing but its now younger brother Eoin making his way through the academy ranks that looks to make the next step up.
Coming from An Cheathrú Rua in County Galway, Eoin is now in his third year with the academy and this summer has been training with Andy Friend's squad ahead of the new season. We sat down with the front row forward to see how he's getting on.
How has it been for you training with the pro squad this summer?
Its my first time training with the squad and its been different from what I'm use to with the academy but you can see straight away how important it is to be switched on all the time and to make sure no stone is left unturned with your preparation.
The preparation side of things is a real eye opener into the work that goes on off the pitch by pro players. Hours of work go into what you think are the very minor details.
Training with the squad where the likes of Cathal Forde, Darragh Murray, Oisin McCormack and Shane Jennings are there has been an added help. We were all part of the side that won the U18 inter-pros a few seasons ago so I know them lads well.
Overall though I'm really enjoying every bit of it and the whole squad have been so helpful to me giving me advice and the confidence to show what I can do.
Your third year with the academy, what have you learned from being in this set up?
The academy has been brilliant in so many ways but specifically the skill side of things such as catch pass, breakdown and then the technical side of things such as scrums and line-outs.
All the coaches have been great to work with and I've taken so much from them which has helped develop my game each year so far.
I've got to work with Andrew Browne a lot with forward specific stuff and part of what makes his coaching so good is the enjoyment of it. You always feel like you are learning something new and improving training by training with him.
Talk us through your year by year with the academy?
The thing with the academy is everyone is different so it goes at different speeds so it changes for each individual. I was lucky enough to get an academy contract straight after leaving Scoil Chuimsitheach Chiaráin (secondary school in An Cheathrú Rua) but that first year with the academy was very much a learning year.
At the end of my year one I was lucky enough to join the U20's and play in the 6 Nations tournament in 2021.
Year two was very much one where I really had to work on my skills and get out on the pitch as much as possible. The pro team had a lot of competition at hooker so it was going to be tough getting any game time with them but I was lucky enough to play a lot of AIL that year with Corinthians RFC.
Now in my third year this is where I really need to push on as a player and take my game to a new level both on and off the field. It's a massive year but I'm excited about the challenge that this year has to offer.
How did you find playing with the U20 Irish squad?
I loved it! I played every game of that 6 Nations campaign so it really helped me improve my game playing at that standard.
Rugby in An Cheathrú Rua
In An Cheathrú Rua football is the heart and soul. The dream of wearing the maroon jersey in Pearse Stadium or Croke Park has long been a goal for kids in South Connemara. Plenty have gone on to play for the Galway footballers but now playing rugby at the highest level is an ambition for many kids with the sport growing year by year and the interest levels increasing.
How did rugby start in An Cheathrú Rua?
There was no rugby club in An Cheathrú Rua until my dad and Micheál Ó'Domhnaill set up An Ghaeltacht Rugbaí in 2005.
My dad wanted my older brother Colm to play rugby so he set up An Ghaeltacht Rugbaí sending out fliers and putting up posters to try and start it all off.
Around forty kids showed up for the first training session which was brilliant and showed the buy in from the community to get this started.
In the club you play all the way up to U12.
I started with the mini's at U8.
What happens after U12 level at An Ghaeltacht Rugbaí?
So after U12 I went on to play for Corinthians RFC. Most rugby players from An Cheathrú Rua would go on to play with Corinthians. Tom Forde (dad of Cathal Forde) who sadly passed away a few years ago played a big part as he was one of the men from Corinthians who got in contact with my dad where he organised a bus to collect all of us from An Cheathrú Rua to go out training in Corinthians RFC.
Every Wednesday this bus would come and collect me and a few more at the hall in An Cheathrú Rua, then it would stop in An Spidéal, Bhearna and by the time we'd reach Corinthians the bus would be full with fifty kids ready to train.
Its Corinthians who put this bus service on for us in Connemara so that's really how players from An Ghaeltacht end up joining them after U12.
What sort of facilities have An Ghaeltacht Rugbaí?
In An Ghaeltacht we don't have a pitch, we just trained on the pitch behind Scoil Mhic Dara (primary school in An Cheathrú Rua) and then for games we would use the local Gaelic football pitch.
Not having our own actual rugby ground I think shows the level of community spirit we have in An Cheathrú Rua where we all look out for one another and support one another. The community makes sure rugby isn't left behind.
With An Ghaeltacht we get a lot of kids from other towns such as Rossaveal, Indreabhán, Leitir Móir, An Spidéal and even the Aran Islands and that just adds to the value of our club.
The Irish language
Anyone that plays with An Ghaeltacht speaks Irish so all of our training, matches, plays are spoke through Irish.
I remember we even use to do a haka which was in spoke in Irish before matches.
Speaking Irish to me is part of who I am. I speak Irish at home all the time to my mam, dad, younger sister Córa and Colm. If you go down to the shop at home and see a neighbour you speak Irish or if you are walking along the beach and see someone you know you'll speak Irish.
I love where I come from. It might only be a small place but it has big character and without doubt is one of the most stunning places in Ireland to see.

A new 30% flat tax rate will be introduced for investment income from January 2018, and a new version of wealth tax will only apply to real estate, lowering tax bills for many expatriates in France.
As part of his election campaign, President Emmanuel Macron promised various tax reforms, particularly on how investment assets and income are taxed. The aim is to encourage people to save more by simplifying taxation on financial income as well as aid business growth.
The draft French budget for 2018 was presented to Parliament on 27th September 2017. A balancing act of tax and spending cuts, it includes the promised tax reforms. The budget will now work its way through parliament before being approved at the end of the year, so changes are possible.
The main measure affecting expatriates in France are summarised below.
Investment income is currently taxed at the scale rates of income tax, but from 1st January 2018 it will become liable to one fixed rate of 30%.
This 30% rate includes both income tax (12.8%) and social charges (17.2%).
It will only apply to investment policies over €150,000 (per person, so €300,000 for a joint policy), whether in an assurance-vie or not. Lower income households can continue to opt for the progressive income tax rates, so that they do not have to pay more tax under new system.
Note that for assurance-vie, the new system will apply to all policies set up on or after 27th September 2017, but the 30% flat rate system will not start to be applied to withdrawals until 1st January 2018. This is because the French Constitution states that 70 days have to elapse between the budget being proposed to parliament and it being approved.
While most of the reforms were expected, this early date for assurance-vie was a surprise. However, the flat rate can actually be more beneficial for individuals with a higher marginal rate of tax.
If your assurance-vie policy was set up before 27th September, the old fixed rate system is still available, as is the ability to elect to use the scaled tax system.
Policies held for more than eight years will continue to benefit from the €4,600 Prélévement Libératoire allowance (€9,200 for married couples / PACS partners).
Your assurance-vie policy will no longer be subject to wealth tax (see below).
There are no changes to the succession tax treatment of assurance-vie.
From 1st January 2018, wealth tax will be abolished and a new real estate tax will be applicable. Savings and investments, including assurance-vie policies, will be exempt from this tax.
If you own or are thinking of buying investment property, it may be worth considering moving the funds into capital investments instead.
The current threshold of €1,300,000 will stay in place; the wealth tax scaled rates will apply to property, and main homes will still enjoy the 30% abatement. The 75% limit will also continue to apply.
This property tax, currently paid by most French households, will only apply to the 20% with the highest incomes.
Remember that all these reforms still need to be debated and approved by parliament, and so changes are possible.
Article provided by courtesy of Blevins Franks - Please do not hesitate to contact us if you would like to discuss how these reforms affect you personally or for tax planning advice. The tax rates, scope and reliefs may change. Any statements concerning taxation are based upon our understanding of current taxation laws and practices which are subject to change.

Directions: It is an easy walk from the Ponte Vecchio (Old Bridge). From there, just head east, it is the first bridge you'll see.
I recently visited Florence. Being a one-day trip, I had to rely on luck to find good photography spots. I have crossed this bridge something like four times, but only on the third I realized that, with sunset, it would have become a good spot for shooting the Ponte Vecchio, with the sun sinking down in one of the arches. So I came back the fifth time half an hour before sunset and realized that my predictions were inaccurate: I only had flare and glare and no clouds to cover the sun nor a GND with me. Luckily, while I was waiting for a change (which did not come) of the light, I noticed an heron flying on the water.
Nevertheless, at dawn, the sun rises on the other side, lighting all the scene. This bridge is a good spot for cityscape photography and a minor one for bird photography, too.
– Bring a stardard to telephoto zoom, a wide angle is not really necessary. If you want a wider image, it's better to create a panorama.
– The bridge tends to be very busy, so watch constantly your gear.
– The best time of the year is summer, while the best time of the day is dawn or a cloudy sunset.

Q: Rgraphviz: edge labels outside plotting region I am trying to plot a Rgraphviz object with two edge labels. Unfortunately the labels fall outside the plot. Here is my example:
require('Rgraphviz')
set.seed(123)
g1 <- randomGraph(letters[1:10], 1:4, 0.4)
eAttrs <- list()
eAttrs$label <- c("a~g" = "I have a very long label 1", "a~i" = "and a  long label 2")
plot(g1, edgeAttrs = eAttrs)

Here is my plot:

I tried several things with no success:
1.
Set a larger bounding box
z <- agopen(g1, "foo")
z@boundBox@upRight@x <- z@boundBox@upRight@x + 300
z@boundBox@upRight@y <- z@boundBox@upRight@y + 300
plot(z, edgeAttrs = eAttrs)

2.
Decrease the label fontsize (not really what I want in my application, anyways)
eAttrs$labelfontsize=c("a~g"="3")
plot(g1, edgeAttrs = eAttrs)

3.
Change par attributes:
par(oma=c(10,10,10,10))
plot(g1, edgeAttrs = eAttrs)

4.
Change node, edge and general attributes from ?Rgraphviz::GraphvizAttributes
attrs <- list(graph=list(size=c(1, 1)))
attrs$edge$fontsize<-8
plot(g1, edgeAttrs = eAttrs, attrs=attrs)

None of my attempts seem to work. Does anyone have an idea?

A: The problem
Calling plot() on a graph object dispatches an S4 method (shown by getMethod("plot", "graph")), which in turn calls the function shown by typing getMethod("plot", "Ragraph"). That function contains the following rather unfortunate lines which, regardless of any related parameter settings you've made, will override them to reset the left and right margins to 0. Frustrating!
oldpars <- par(mai = c(sheight, 0, mheight, 0))
on.exit(par(oldpars), add = TRUE)

A workaround
One workaround is to construct a three panel layout in which the left and right panels are just there to provide a bit of buffering space. Turn off clipping, plot your graph object in the middle panel, and it then seems to work:
layout(matrix(1:3, nrow=1), widths=c(1,5,1))
par(xpd=NA)                    ## turn off all clipping
plot.new()                     ## blank plot in Panel 1
plot(g1, edgeAttrs = eAttrs)   ## graph in Panel 2
plot.new()                     ## blank plot in Panel 3

A: I found another solution: In my original question I changed the size of the bounding box in a laid out graph I got with agopen. Plotting the laid out graph showed no edge labels at all. I found that it is possible to pass the edge attributes from the graph object to agopen and then change the bounding box:
require('Rgraphviz')
set.seed(123)
g1 <- randomGraph(letters[1:10], 1:4, 0.4)
eAttrs <- list()
eAttrs$label <- c("a~g" = "I have a very long label 1", "a~i" = "and a  long label 2")
z <- agopen(g1, "foo", edgeAttr=eAttrs)
z@boundBox@botLeft@x <- z@boundBox@botLeft@x - 400 ##left
z@boundBox@upRight@x <- z@boundBox@upRight@x + 200 ##right
plot(z)

The plot:


Our allies continue to make progress in their efforts to bring an end to the activities of the dark Ones. Resistance is pushed aside as we are the ones in ascendancy, and some major coups could well open Pandora's box and reveal those who have been behind the plan for world control. We are certainly closing in on those responsible, and for once money will not buy them a way out of it. So much has been revealed about the goings on that have taken away your rights, and bribery has played a big part in achieving it. Honest politics disappeared a long time ago, but that does not mean that there are not any honest politicians. Unfortunately their voices are often stifled and regularly ignored, but their day is coming very soon and be assured that we know each one by name.
Each day now offers the possibility of exciting news, and Disclosure is being energised by your focus upon it. It means that it will soon burst upon the scene, as it cannot be held back much longer. It will once and for all prove our existence, and remove suggestions that we have ulterior motives where you and your Earth are concerned. Once our true motives have been confirmed, we hope to have satisfied those who had doubts that we come in peace. You do need us, and in any event it is decreed that we come together in the Brotherhood of Light. Your future is going to take you into the realms of the Cosmos, that is your true abode and where you will once more achieve your true status. So as you can see, there is a lot to do and Ascension will be the first big step that will lift you up. It will be a great leap forward in your levels of consciousness.
Everyone will at some stage be offered the same opportunity to rise up, but it comes with conditions as you have to apply yourself to lifting up your vibrations. You cannot just walk straight into Ascension, unless you are compatible to the new levels. We have already told you that initially all you need is a firm intent to ascend, but you have to change your life to one that mirrors the new vibrations. It means gradually leaving behind those attachments that will no longer serve you. Ones that are perhaps habitual such as taking drugs, or indulging in practises that are of a low vibration. If you choose to pass over the chance to ascend, that is your choice and you will be directed onto a path that allows you to continue in your present way.
Some followers of religion expect the wrath of God to descend upon Earth, but we wish to make it clear that your true God Is All Love. That scenario is biblical in origin and comes from false teachings, or old predictions that are no longer relevant. Naturally there will be physical changes, as that is the nature of Mother Earth who is responsible for carrying them out. However, they are not intended to destroy the Earth but part of the necessary cleansing to prepare it for Ascension. In fact the more Light that is brought to Earth the easier it will be, and furthermore people warned where they are in danger. Some will heed them, but others will stay according to their intuitive feelings.
Dear Ones, you have come far to arrive at this pivotal point in your lives, so please take note of what is happening around you. Some information will be deliberately circulated to cause fear, and you should know by now that it is the very energy that feeds the dark Ones. Without lifting a finger you can help to keep them down, by denying them the energy they live off. Keep your Light shining bright all of the time, and never let your focus move from your goal. The year 2012 will see a speeding up of the level of Light being sent to Earth, that means you will rapidly leave the old vibrations behind. When you shed them you will notice a much lighter feeling takes over, and a beautiful peace descends upon you. If that is already you, we say well done and that you are doing everything possible to prepare yourself for Ascension.
We of the Galactic Federation continue to draw closer to you, and we have established direct contact on Earth with numerous Beings of Light who are to play a major role in Disclosure. If necessary, we can learn all there is to know about any individual, so you may be sure that whosoever speaks on our behalf is genuine. Where anyone else tries to intrude with disinformation, you will feel the difference because of the energies their words carry. Be discerning and remember that the dark Ones are easy to spot, and out to create fear laden messages. Understand that until this cycle is drawn to an end, the dark Ones still have freewill choice to do as they wish. Our hope is that they will soon see that the Light is about to take charge of the Earth, and they have nothing to gain by trying to create more confusion or chaos.
For many the time of goodwill approaches, and people look to the New Year to discuss their aspirations and what they wish to bring into their lives. Lightworkers who express their confidence that the future is going to bring peace to Earth, will immensely help still the fears that may otherwise arise considering the instability that is around you. An encouraging word here and there, can help lift the gloom and pessimism that many people feel right now. Your Light is a radiance that reaches far, and wherever you are will bring about a feeling of calmness. When numbers of you get together for the purpose of sending out your Light, its power is increased tenfold and you will be doing a great service for Humanity. Believe us, you are far more powerful than you give yourselves credit for.
We know that conditions are very difficult for many people, but please do not let them get you down as there is not far to go before it will all change. In fact, you will end up far better off than any previous period in your lives. You will be given peace on Earth, and your worries and problems eased until they no longer exist. In a matter of months you will see astonishing changes take place, and we are your guarantee that all we have promised will come to fruition. When we talk of "we" that includes all of the Beings that work with us from the highest realms of Light. The end times have been divinely planned, and there are no mistakes where the Creator is concerned.
I am SaLuSa from Sirius, and bid you well and all that your dreams are made of and the love you seek.

Marriage is the heart of the home. A good marriage precedes good parenting, and no amount of good parenting compensates for a poor marriage. And one of the best ways to have a good, strong marriage is by spending quality time together.
Even when our girls were small, Nanci and I would have a date night and go out together. The two of us would sometimes go on vacations alone. We called on a lot of babysitters who were people from the church, or our kids would stay at our friends' homes, or with grandparents. We really believed that the best thing we could do for our children was to have a strong marriage and to enjoy our time together.
This is wedding season and I'm sure a lot of you will be going to weddings over the next few months. If you're married, be sure to use this opportunity to think in terms of cultivating and preserving your marriage.

Q: Operator Overloading in C++ So I'm in a basic programming II class. We have to create a program that makes 4 different functions that will change the way an operator works. I've looked up multiple examples and sets of text that display how to do this, but I cannot make which way of what any of the code means. To me something like this should work.
int operator++()
{
    variableA--;
}

To me, this says if you encounter a ++, then -- from the variable, now obvious it doesn't work like this. All the examples I've found create their own data type. Is there a way to overload an operator using an int or a double?

A: All the examples create their own data type since this is one of the rules for operator overloading:  An overloaded operator must work on at least one user-defined type.
Even if you could overload ++ for integers, the compiler wouldn't know which one to use -- your version or the regular version; it would be ambiguous.
You seem to think of operators as single functions, but each overload is a completely separate function differentiated by its function signature (type and sometimes number of arguments), while having the same operator symbol (this is the definition of "overloading").
So, you can't overload ++ to always do something different; this would really be operator overriding, which C++ doesn't allow.
You can define ++ for a type you've created though:
class MyType {
public:
    int value;
};

MyType const& operator++(MyType& m) {   // Prefix
    ++m.value;
    return m;
}

const MyType operator++(MyType& m, int) {   // Postfix (the 'int' is just to differentiate it from the prefix version)
    MyType temp = m;
    ++m.value;
    return temp;
}

int main() {
    MyType m;
    m.value = 0;
    m++;    // Not m.value++
    cout << m.value;    // Prints 1
}

Note that this set of ++ operators was defined outside of the MyType class, but could have been defined inside instead (they would gain access to non-public members that way), though their implementations would be a little different.

A: You can't overload operators of built-in types. (Well, technically you can overload things like "int + MyClass" - but not when both sides are built-in types)

A: Take a look at How can I overload the prefix and postfix forms of operators ++ and --?
