'Uncovered' Group Exhibition at Artist Proof Studio: An Exhibition Review by Khehla Chepape Makgato
Khehla Chepape Makgato reviews 'Uncovered,' the students' exhibition at Artist Proof Studio in Newtown, Johannesburg.

Wisdom and aesthetics, consciousness of self, collective activism and outstanding skill are not usually associated with young artists at the threshold of their careers, but the 'UNCOVERED' group exhibition by the fine art printmaking graduates at Artist Proof Studio – a community-based printmaking centre in Johannesburg – brings this inference into question. This student exhibition showcases limited edition prints by a number of promising young artists, including Bokang Mankoe, Matthews Makgotlho, Goolam Saber Chavoos, Kelebogile Masilo, Sifiso Temba, Lebohang Motaung, Lindokuhle Zwane, Matimu Lloyd Maluleke, Sifiso Gumede and Mandlenkosi Mavengere.
These students in particular aren't academic graduates, yet they seem to possess an enhanced sense of articulation and a deep understanding of our inter-dependence on each other in a functional world. On number of occasions I have seen them working collaboratively – a concept deeply rooted in the art of printmaking – even though their subjects may vary widely. Each of them is endowed with the gift of visual storytelling. 'UNCOVERED' exhibits a compassionate intelligence and the capacity for intimate portraiture from their personal experiences.

Anton Chekhov – Russian physician, playwright and author – once said, 'Dissatisfaction with oneself is one of the fundamental qualities of every true talent,' Lebohang Motaung, a printmaker and hairstylist, is the epitome of this statement. Motaung documents, through the fastidious technique of etching, the process of patterning, texturing and styling she goes through when plaiting African hair for her clients. She also speaks of the stories told during her client's expeditions to her salon. In prints like Bontle Boa Sebeletswa (a Setswana saying that loosely translates as 'beauty is hard-earned), there is not only masterpiece of visual economy and textural grace but also a manifestation of hybrid hairstyles used as metaphors for the subconscious and conscious relationship between herself and her clients.
Matthews Makgotlho has been struggling with learning disabilities for years. His way of working is verbose; he makes a starting note here, a counterword there; establishes a dynamic relationship between perspectives and curls, adds a counter-theme, introduces a little blurring; creates a revelation through juxtapositions, implies an enigma through lopping-off. The literary equivalents of visual puzzles and bits of emptiness in monochrome colours interrogate each other; biological human structural shapes vie for space on the Fabiano paper. In his silkscreen prints, Encouragement and Forgetting and Hoping To Learn More, Makgotlho admits to making his difficulties and methods of learning visible; "I use the subject of psychology as an area of study in my work, as this was a subject I very much wanted to learn at school but was not able to due to my disability," he says, "My prints become the material of my learning – I use my notes from my study sessions and turn them into images."
A full appreciation of Kelebogile Masilo's work requires a certain degree of involvement, an intellectual response or, as in the case of her love-stories, an emotional one. Her selected body of work consists of technically enchanting lithograph prints, which are not simply startling in showing off her technical mastery but mesmerising in their conceptual approach. Masilo weaves back and forth between various categories of femininity and the warm affirmation she has for her mother. In Ha Kea Fellwa Ke Maatla(loosely translating from Setswana as 'I Remain Strong'),she draws our attention to the key symbol; "I use the rose, symbolising my mother's presence in me," she says, "The narrative in this series follows my personal struggle in taming these 'roses' that grow from beneath my skin, giving rise to my morphed, hybrid figure." There is an apparent nostalgia for the security and comfort of the womb, shutting out the strangers and alien world; Masilo looks to those she could confide in for security, namely her mother.

An intimate portrait is evident in Bokang Mankoe's work – unexpected and important. Constructed Speech becomes a profile of courage, emphasising the need for the construction of a "perfect man." Mankoe uses the Golden Ratio face mask and the geometric lines that accompany it to construct himself in the image of the ideal man. He also pays homage to his father, drawing our attention to the surprising and startling stretch of his father's abbreviated life. The death of his father endowed the artist with immediate responsibilities as the first-born and eldest of his siblings, effectively inaugurating him as a father figure in the family. He wrote in his statement about this early adoption of responsibilities; "I looked at what would be the perfect male figure for my siblings… [turning] myself into this perfect man."
Mandlenkosi Mavengere is a young printmaker who talks of economics and politics in his work. He wrote in his statement, "My artworks are meant to bring into conversation issues of migration in our contemporary society. I travelled from Zimbabwe to South Africa because of my economic situation." In his work, we are reminded that the country that we live in is more often the result of accidents in history and geography than personal choice. The concept of immigration has been and continues to be a key spoke in the wheel of human evolution. Mavengere uses the image of his own face in A Place I Call Home, replacing the well-known Big Five on the South African bank notes with his portrait in the foreground and introducing what appear to be farmworkers in the background along with a striking juxtaposition of rural landscape and panoramic cityscape in the distance. With an emphasis on money as the root of migration, one might interpret his work against the background of a dwindling South African rand and the lack of foresight from the leadership in his country of birth, Zimbabwe; what used to be the breadbasket economy of Africa has steadily disintegrated into a country whose citizens have dispersed across the world in search of bread.
In Mental Release, Goolam Saber Chavoos challenges himself, the viewer and the tradition of printmaking, privileging composition and verbal realism over images alone. These abstract visual narratives reveal his poetic endowment, as he eloquently puts it, "Fragments from the past may keep us from reaching out full potential, holding us in the shadows of ourselves." He argues that experimental performance in conjunction with other processes became the vehicle for his mental blocks to be documented and dealt with.

Each artist in this exhibition places printmaking at the centre of recording the unfinished and ever-evolving business of social examination and the reanimation of human memories. Lindokuhle Zwane interrogates the nostalgias of a township boy who knew only used car tyres as toys. "My process involves photographs, capturing moments that I feel nostalgic towards," says Zwane. He is interested in how the past interlaces itself with the present, creating a psychological barrier that keeps us from moving forward. He hopes that his work will open unspoken dialogues.
The Alexandra Township, located on the outskirts of the illustrious Sandton City in Johannesburg, has managed to accommodate countless South African legends and icons – including Nelson Mandela and Hugh Masekela among others – despite being poverty stricken Living in Alexandra, for Mandela, was a time of hunger, poverty and learning to be confident and self-reliant; a case similar to that of Sifiso Gumede. "I document the stories of Alexandra using visual language to create a dialog and acknowledges the township history," says Gumede. His work is influenced by township and protest art, referencing the ideology of telling African stories through art. He uses linocut, a relief printmaking technique, as a metaphor for digging up untold stories. The medium has been used by generation of protests artists, such as Thami Mnyele and Wally Mongane Serote, who once stayed in the Alexandra Township during apartheid.
Matimu Lloyd Maluleke tells stories of his rural village of Giyani. He confides his innermost thoughts and expresses his personal philosophy whilst celebrating women from rural villages for their continued role in shaping our communities. "My work is about revisiting my childhood and upbringing in Limpopo," he says "I look at the society where I have grown up and where the women in my community are commonly left to bring up their family."
Achille Mbembe, philosopher, political scientist, and public intellectual, writes, "Crime is fast destroying the moral fabric of South African cities and is becoming the major threat to South Africa's democracy as well as the not so hidden name of a 'class war' which itself is, to a large extent, a continuation of the 'race war' of yesterday." Sifiso Temba translates Mbembe's thoughts into visuals in his very busy and chaotic prints. "My work focuses on the issue of crime as one of the overlooked social issues in South Africa. I explore the complexity and social perception of crime as high levels of murder, rape, and theft threaten to deplete hope in our country," says Temba.

In celebrating this significant exhibition with the artists, a gesture of congratulations should be extended to the collective educational team at Artist Proof Studio together with their education manager, Mr. Lucas Nkgweng, for all their efforts and dedication in shining a light on these emerging printmakers. The prints on exhibition are not only crisp but also affordable, especially for those wanting to begin an art collection. The show is curated by Robyn Nesbitt and will conclude at the end of January 2016.

Director David R. Johnson and Martha Thurlow of the Institute on Community Integration (MN UCEDD) are among the authors of the newly-released report of findings from the National Longitudinal Transition Study 2012 (NLTS 2012). The NLTS 2012, which is part of the congressionally-mandated National Assessment of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004, is based at Mathematica Policy Research, and the research team for the study consisted of key staff from Mathematica and from the Institute on Community Integration.
The report, published by the U.S. Department of Education, Institute of Education Sciences, provides a national picture of secondary school students in special education and how they compare with their peers. Based on surveys of nearly 13,000 parents and 11,000 youth in the U.S., it sheds light on challenges the youth can face in socioeconomic status, health, communication, and social functioning at school, as well as areas such as academic supports and preparation for life after high school. "The study provides the most recent understanding regarding the educational experiences and future aspirations of youth with disabilities for postsecondary education and employment," notes Johnson. "Of special interest is the first-time available comparison of students with and without disabilities."

Chris Martenson – Get Ready for Inflation Good and Hard in 2021, Building Your Resilience and Covid Criminals.
https://youtu.be/VTy8n-l5w7o
Dr. Chris Martenson is a futurist, economic researcher and says severe economic damage has been done to the economy. Wall Street wins while Main Street loses. Martenson contends, "The economy is very bad at this point in time, and it's being covered up by a very, very complicit Federal Reserve that is just propping markets up. . . . Dr. Martenson also says that because of all the money printing that has already happened with much more to come, there will be some big inflation bubbling up. Martenson predicts, "Follow with me out to June of 2021, and we are going to find ourselves in a situation where the shale oil miracle has collapsed . . . to five or six million barrels a day. We are going to be demanding, and our economy is going to be on fire at that point because of all this free money that is just sort of floating around. Then we are going to see inflation good and hard. . . .We are going to have actual oil based inflation come through at that point in time. That is the prediction I am working with right now. People need to be ready for that, and that is what our seminars are all about." Martenson likes physical assets such as gold, silver and farm land. Martenson shows people how to be more resilient for what is coming. Join Greg Hunter of USAWatchdog.com as he goes One-on-One with the co-founder of PeakProsperity.com, Dr. Chris Martenson.

Revolutions rarely happen overnight. The Left started laying the groundwork for November 3, 2020, the moment Hillary Clinton had to concede the 2016 election to Donald Trump. It was always solely about getting rid of President Trump, and there is a playbook for that. Last week, Glenn showed you the "Seven Pillars" written by a former U.S. diplomat, which are the conditions that must be in place for a successful Color Revolution. They seem to be following the same Color Revolution playbook they used in Eastern Europe – because they are using the exact same playbook. In part two of this series, Glenn peels back the layers on the first four of these Color Revolution pillars to show you how they work and what the end goal is. And he reveals one of the architects of the playbook – a Color Revolution specialist, former ambassador, and former Obama administration official who is one of the key masterminds of this revolution. Guest: Political campaign veteran and BlazeTV host Steve Deace says the polls that claim Biden is leading the race "are trash." We're being set up to believe that if Trump wins in spite of the polls, it must be an invalid election. ► Subscribe to BlazeTV YouTube! https://bit.ly/2KJHuwu ► Join BlazeTV! https://get.blazetv.com/ ► Sign up for our NEWSLETTER: https://theblaze.com/newsletters Connect with us on Social Media: http://twitter.com/BlazeTV http://instagram.com/TheBlazeTV http://facebook.com/BlazeMedia

The Social Dilemma- the rise of social media and the damage it has caused to society
The Social Dilemma is a 2020 American docudrama.
The dilemma
Never before have a handful of tech designers had such control over the way billions of us think, act, and live our lives.
Discover what's hiding on the other side of your screen
We tweet, we like, and we share— but what are the consequences of our growing dependence on social media? This documentary-drama hybrid reveals how social media is reprogramming civilization with tech experts sounding the alarm on their own creations.
The Social Dilemma features the voices of technologists, researchers and activists working to align technology with the interests of humanity.
The Social Dilemma is a 2020 American docudrama. The film explores the rise of social media and the damage it has caused to society, focusing on its exploitation of its users for financial gain through surveillance capitalism and data mining, how its design is meant to nurture an addiction, its use in politics, its impact on mental health (including the mental health of adolescents and rising teen suicide rates), and its role in spreading conspiracy theories such as Pizzagate and aiding groups such as flat-earthers.
The film features interviews with former Google design ethicist and Center for Humane Technology co-founder Tristan Harris, his fellow Center for Humane Technology co-founder Aza Raskin, Asana co-founder and Facebook's like button co-creator Justin Rosenstein, Harvard University professor Shoshana Zuboff, former Pinterest president Tim Kendall, AI Now director of policy research Rashida Richardson, Yonder director of research Renee DiResta, Stanford University Addiction Medicine Fellowship program director Anna Lembke, and virtual reality pioneer Jaron Lanier. The interviews are cut together with dramatizations starring actors Skyler Gisondo, Kara Hayward, and Vincent Kartheiser, which tell the story of a teenager's social media addiction.

What ever happened to letting "boys be boys?" Take these two cases: In one, a seven-year-old boy was sent home for nibbling a Pop Tart into a gun. In another, a teacher was so alarmed by a picture drawn by a student (of a sword fight), that the boy's parents were summoned in for a conference. In short, boys in America's schools are routinely punished for being active, competitive, and restless. In other words, boys can no longer be boys. Christina Hoff Sommers, a scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, explains how we can change this. Donate today to PragerU! http://l.prageru.com/2ylo1Yt Joining PragerU is free!

Boys tend to be disorganized and restless. Some have even been known to be noisy and hard to manage. Sound like any boy you know? But increasingly, our schools have little patience for what only a couple of decades ago would have been described as "boyishness." As psychologist Michael Thompson has aptly observed: "Girls behavior is the gold standard in schools. Boys are treated like defective girls." As a result, these "defective girls" are not faring well academically. Compared with girls, boys earn lower grades, win fewer honors they're are far less likely to go to college. Boys are languishing academically, while girls are prospering. In an ever more knowledge-based economy, this is not a recipe for a successful society. We need to start thinking about how we can make our grade school classrooms more boy-friendly. Well, here are four reforms that would make a very good start. 1. Turn boys into readers. In all age groups, across all ethnic lines, boys score lower than girls on national reading tests. Good reading skills -- need I say? -- are critical to academic and workplace success. A major study in the UK discovered, not surprisingly, that girls prefer fiction, magazines, and poetry while boys prefer comics and non-fiction. Boys whose eyes glaze over if forced to read Little House on the Prairie may be riveted by the Guinness Book of Records. Boys will read if given materials that interest them. If you're looking for suggestions for books that have proved irresistible to boys go to guysread.com. 2. Inspire the male imagination. Celebrated writing instructor Ralph Fletcher contends that too many teachers take what is called "the confessional poet" as the classroom ideal. Personal narratives full of emotions and self-disclosure -- these are stories girls commonly write -- and these are prized; whereas action stories describing, say, a skateboard competition or a monster devouring a city, these are not. I recently read about a third-grader in Southern California named Justin who loved science-fiction, pirates, and battles. An alarmed teacher summoned his parents to school to discuss the picture the 8-year-old had drawn of a sword fight -- which included several decapitated heads. The teacher expressed grave "concern" about Justin's "values." The boy's father was astonished, not by his son's drawing which to him was typical boy stuff, but by the teacher's overwrought -- and female-centered -- reaction. If boys are constantly subject to disapproval for their interests and enthusiasms they are likely to become disengaged and lag further behind. Our schools need to work with, not against, the kinetic imaginations of boys. For the complete script, visit https://www.prageru.com/videos/war-boys

Q: How to compare two files in python and get the values in Boolean? I am new in python I am working on python file operations,In Which I have a two input files
1.Security_Headers_list.txt
9508,content-security-policy
9496,content-security-policy
9240,content-security-policy
904,content-security-policy,x-content-type-options,strict-transport-security,x-frame-options
8013,content-security-policy
5263,content-security-policy,x-frame-options
4378,content-security-policy
3854,content-security-policy
3331,content-security-policy

2.Master.txt
strict-transport-security
content-security-policy
x-frame-options
x-content-type-options
x-xss-protection
public-key-pins

Security headers list has to be compared against the master list.
Script:
    f_out=open('Output.txt', 'wb')
    f=open('master.txt','r')
    a=f.readlines()
    f1=open("Security_Headers_list.txt","r")
    b=f1.readlines()
    x=0
    str=""
    match =[]
    appno =""
    while x<len(a):
            h=a[x].strip()
            y=0
            z=0
            while y<len(b):
                    c=b[y].strip()
                    appno=b[0]
                    if (h==c):
                            z=1
                    y=y+1
            if z == 1:
                    str=str+"Yes,"
            else:
                    str=str+"No, "
            x=x+1
    match.insert(0,appno)
    f_out.write(b[0].rstrip() + "," + str[0:len(str)-2])
    f.close()
    f1.close()
    f_out.close()

Output has to be like :
9508,No,Yes,No,No,No,No
9496,No,Yes,No,No,No,No
9240,No,Yes,No,No,No,No
904,Yes,Yes,Yes,Yes,No,No
8013,No,Yes,No,No,No,No
5263,No,Yes,Yes,No,No,No
4378,No,Yes,No,No,No,No
3854,No,Yes,No,No,No,No
3331,No,Yes,No,No,No,No

I had not got what I want , please give me some advice on it.

A: As you have 2 files so you need to extract data form one file, create a list of that data, which represents the types types = data1.read().split("\n"). Then you iterate over each line in the first file and look if the types are present in it or not and accordingly substituting the "Yes" or "No" values.
with open("Master.txt", "r") as data1, open("Security_Headers_list.txt", "r") as data2:
  types = data1.read().split("\n")
  for line in data2:
    out = ""
    split_line = line.strip().split(",")
    sno, categories = split_line[0], split_line[1:]
    out+=sno+"  "
    for typ in types:
      if typ in categories:
        out+="Yes, "
      else:
        out+="No, "
    print out[:-2]

Output:
9508  No, Yes, No, No, No, No
9496  No, Yes, No, No, No, No
9240  No, Yes, No, No, No, No
904  Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, No, No
8013  No, Yes, No, No, No, No
5263  No, Yes, Yes, No, No, No
4378  No, Yes, No, No, No, No
3854  No, Yes, No, No, No, No
3331  No, Yes, No, No, No, No

EDIT:
With the help of @AntonyHatchkins in the comments and list comprehension, the above code can be reduced to :
with open("TEKST_ny.txt", "r") as data1, open("sample.txt", "r") as data2:
  types = data1.read().split("\n")
  for line in data2:
    sno, categories = line.rstrip().split(',', 1)
    print "".join([sno+"  "]+["Yes, " if typ in categories else "No, " for typ in types ])[:-2]

A: I'd suggest slightly different use of joins than @ZdaR (+a generator expression):
with open("Master.txt", "r") as data1:
    master = data1.read().rstrip().split("\n")
with open("Security_Headers_list.txt", "r") as data2:
    for line in data2:
        num, cat = line.rstrip().split(",", 1)
        print num + '  ' + ', '.join('Yes' if t in cat else 'No' for t in master)

A: Try this code:
f_out=open('Output.txt', 'wb')
f=open('master.txt','r')
a=f.readlines()
f1=open("Security_Headers_list.txt","r")
b=f1.readlines()
x=0
str=""
match =[]
for line in b:
    options = line.split(",")
    l = options[0]
    options1 =[]
    for opt in options:
        options1.append(opt.strip())
    for match in a:
        if match.strip() in options1:
            l = l + ",Yes"
        else:
            #print match.strip()
            l = l + ",No"
    f_out.write(l+"\n")
f.close()
f1.close()
f_out.close()

A: You can use 'filecmp' module to compare two files and it will return boolen value, true or false. It has easy syntax. Here is the link to help you out.

Practice Relating to Rule 160. Statutes of Limitation
IV. National Legislation
Argentina's Law concerning the Imprescriptibility of War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity (1995) approved the 1968 UN Convention on the Non-Applicability of Statutory Limitation to War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity.
Argentina, Law concerning the Imprescriptibility of War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity, 1995.
Argentina's Law on the Implementation of the 1998 ICC Statute (2006) states:
The prosecution and punishment of the crimes provided in articles 8, 9 and 10 of this law [genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes], as well as of any other crimes that may eventually fall within the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court, are not subject to statutes of limitation.
Argentina, Law on the Implementation of the 1998 ICC Statute, 2006, Article 11.
V. National Case-law
In the Bohne case in 1966, Argentina's Supreme Court of Justice found that in fact there had been no verification that prescription applied to penal action under the laws of the requesting State (Federal Republic of Germany), and that the decision in question remained unchanged even in the light of the argument put forward by the defence to the effect that prescription of penal action for the crimes attributed to the accused applied after 15 years because the case was one of participation in simple homicide. The accused had been requisitioned for widespread and systematic execution of mentally ill persons in 1939 and 1940.
Argentina, Supreme Court of Justice, Bohne case, 24 August 1966.
In the Schwammberger case in 1989, a magistrate of Argentina's Cámara Federal de La Plata found the 1968 UN Convention on the Non-Applicability of Statutory Limitations to War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity to be an indisputable factor in the non-applicability of statutory limitations to war crimes as a principle of international law, and despite the absence of ratification by Argentina, held that Argentina was bound by the principle according to Article 102 of its Constitution.
Argentina, Cámara Federal de La Plata, Schwammberger case (First Instance), 30 August 1989, Opinion by Dr Schiffrin.
Similarly, another magistrate rejected the position that prescription was covered by Article 18 of the National Constitution.
Argentina, Cámara Federal de La Plata, Schwammberger case (First Instance), 30 August 1989, Opinion by Dr Garro.
The Attorney-General argued that in the case in question it must be verified whether penal action was not prescribed under the laws of the requesting State (Federal Republic of Germany) rather than the laws of Argentina.
Argentina, Legal opinion of the Procurator-general of the Nation, Schwammberger case (Legal Opinion), 21 November 1989.
Similarly, in 1990, the Supreme Court found that under German law there was no prescription.
Argentina, Supreme Court of Justice, Schwammberger case (Supreme Court), 20 March 1990.
In the Priebke case in 1995 dealing with the question of the possible extradition of the accused to Italy for acts committed during the Second World War (Ardeatine caves massacre), Argentina's Court of Appeal found that, under the terms of Argentine legislation, the charge of homicide was prescribed and therefore the extradition request should be rejected.
Argentina, Court of Appeal of General Roca, Priebke case (Appeal), 23 August 1995.
The Supreme Court revoked the decision of the Court of Appeal and allowed the extradition, stating that the fact that Priebke was required for trial in Italy established prima facie the crime of genocide "for killing 75 Jews out of 335 dead". It added that "the classification of offences as crimes against humanity does not depend on whether the requesting or requested States agree with the extradition process, but instead on the principles of jus cogens of international law" and that "there is no prescription for crimes under this law".
Argentina, Supreme Court, Priebke case (Supreme Court), 2 November 1995.
One of the Court magistrates referred to the 1968 UN Convention on the Non-Applicability of Statutory Limitations to War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity and concluded that the Argentine Republic's practice undeniably contributed to the development of an international custom that favoured the non-applicability of statutory limitations, and that express acceptance of such non-applicability through adherence to or ratification of the Convention was not the only means of determining the existence of jus cogens. In his opinion, Argentina's Executive and Legislative Branches had already expressed their agreement with the contents of the text, which had already been approved by both the Argentine Senate and House of Deputies.
Argentina, Supreme Court, Priebke case (Supreme Court), 2 November 1995, Opinion by Dr Bossert.
Other magistrates also found that Priebke's conduct had all the characteristics of crimes against humanity committed against civilians and prisoners of war in wartime, and that this classification was in line with the principles of jus cogens, and that such crimes were not subject to limitations.
Argentina, Supreme Court, Priebke case (Supreme Court), 2 November 1995, Opinion by Drs Nazareno and Moliné O'Connor.
However, other judges casting dissenting votes found that, since the crimes were homicides in terms of Article 62 of the Argentine Penal Code, the time limit after which prescription would apply had already elapsed. They found that even if the acts were to be considered crimes against humanity, they would be subject to a period of limitation since the UN Convention had yet to enter into force in Argentina.
Argentina, Supreme Court, Priebke case (Supreme Court), 2 November 1995, Dissenting vote by Drs Belluscio and Levene.
75. In view of the above settled position and in the absence of statutory limitation, only the delayed prosecution does not preclude prosecutorial action to adjudicate the culpability of the perpetrators of core international crimes. It requires strong public and political will together with favourable and stable political situation for holding such trial. Therefore, justice delayed is no longer justice denied, particularly when the perpetrators of core international crimes are brought on the process of justice.
Bangladesh, International Crimes Tribunal-1, Motiur Rahman Nizami, Judgment, 29 October 2014, §§ 73-75.

In a Colombian region where Alzheimer's has been passed on for many generations, women carry the burden of care.
Medellin, Colombia - When Gladys Betancur Piedrahita was a young girl growing up on a coffee farm in the Andes mountain town of Angostura in Colombia, her grandmother fell ill. Gladys watched her mother and aunt care for their mother before she died. Soon after, Gladys' aunt developed the same mysterious illness. She suffered for three years until, at the age of 38, she too passed away. Then, about a decade ago, Gladys' mother, Magnolia, started to exhibit the by now familiar symptoms.
At first, Magnolia repeated stories, telling them four or five times. She flung her food or buried it. She left the house and wandered around, lost. A soft-spoken woman, she turned, without warning, wildly aggressive.
Gladys, now 37, recognised the signs. Her mother, like other family members, had early-onset Alzheimer's disease.
Gladys' hometown is one of a handful in Colombia's rugged state of Antioquia where many residents - possibly because the area's remoteness has fostered generations of intermarriage - have a genetic mutation on a chromosome that causes early onset Alzheimer's. The result is that if one parent has the disease, their child has a 50 percent chance of developing it.
In other parts of the world, no one can know if they will get Alzheimer's as no single gene has been identified as causing it. But the certainty of getting the disease if you carry the mutation has made this region a scientific laboratory of sorts, offering something no other place does - a possible answer as to how to prevent a disease that strikes millions around the world.
Medellin, the capital of Antioquia, is now home to a multi-million-dollar drug trial where researchers have enrolled residents to find a solution to early-onset Alzheimer's, in the hope of eventually being able to prevent the late in life form of the disease as well.
"We noticed there were families where generations of people have been sick," says Lucia Madrigal, 64, a nurse who, along with a neurologist, first began researching Alzheimer's in the area. "So we started studying them. Our question was, what happens to these people? What happened to them that so many generations of the same family were sick?"
Although men and women have the same chances of getting Alzheimer's, a disease known for the toll it exacts on caregivers, the burden of care in Colombia, like elsewhere in the world, typically falls on women - wives, mothers, daughters, aunts - who cope with caring for their families even as they know that their loved ones, and they themselves, face frightening odds.
As the research facility at the University of Antioquia races against time to find a preventive solution - they are in the fourth year of the clinical trial and have four more years to go - for most of these families, Alzheimer's is already a reality.
Gladys never stops working. Her routine has calcified - a relentless march from dawn until after dusk, day in and day out. After she sends off her two daughters - one to work, the other to school - she settles into a daily care routine for Magnolia, now aged 59. Gladys fixes her breakfast, bathes her, then begins physiotherapy, which includes massaging her skin.
"I take her out when the day is nice and then put her in bed to prepare lunch," she explains. Gladys then single-handedly lifts Magnolia into a chair to feed her, careful not to hurt her mother's spine in the process. "Physically, it's hard because she's very rigid."
In the afternoon, more therapy before Gladys prepares dinner, cleans the house and takes care of her pets (three cats and two dogs). She puts her mother to bed at 8:30pm. "Mentally, it makes me depressed, but you start getting used to it."
Gladys used to run a grocery store, but when her mother fell sick, she quickly realised that taking care of Magnolia would be a full-time job. Although Gladys has two sisters and a brother who could help, they had to keep their jobs to help out financially.
"One of us had to stop working, and I decided to be the one [to] do that," Gladys says. "It was not an obligation," she quickly adds. "It was my wish to do so."
She sold her store and now sells cosmetic products from a catalogue to neighbours and relatives from home.
The last time Gladys took a day off was a year and a half ago. Her sisters volunteered to take Magnolia for the day.
"I relaxed and slept until late," she says. "I went out to the cinema, went for a hike and went out to eat with my daughter."
But when Magnolia was returned, she was sicker than usual. Gladys believes it was because of the change in temperature - she was in a windier neighbourhood - and she had to be taken to the hospital. The incident convinced Gladys that she should never let her mother out of her sight.
"The caregiver is often alone, dedicating 24 hours a day to the sick person," Lucia, the nurse, explains. "They have a strong physical and mental burden day after day."
The only time that Gladys is apart from her mother now is when she and her brother go to participate in the clinical trial, a trip she rushes through every 15 days.
"I have hope that the study will have results. I really dedicated myself to it," she says. "I don't want my daughters to go through this."
For either of her daughters to hold the gene, Gladys would have to have it. She doesn't know whether she does - none of the clinical trial participants are told if they do. But she doesn't allow herself to believe she may get Alzheimer's even though she and her siblings face a coin flip in odds.
Despite seeing the sickness ravage her mother every day, "you live with the disease and try not to think of the disease," she says. "It's worse knowing than not knowing."
When I visit in June, Gladys' younger daughter, Angie Lizeth Rojo Betancur, who is 16 years old, is due to give birth in a week - to a boy. Right now, "it's only women in this house," Gladys points out.
Gladys, who moved to Medellin when she married, separated from her husband three years ago. Her father, who sold their coffee farm in the country, also lives in the city but in another house.
Her father, she says, has never helped her mother, through care or cash. "He never even changed her diaper," Gladys says. "I brought her here three years ago, and he's come twice to see her."
He lives alone in the house. In contrast, Gladys' home, which sits on a steep slope, is filled with jokes, animals - and laughter. Magnolia, propped up in a wheelchair and wearing a hoodie in the living room, caresses one of the cats curled up on her lap.
Gladys bends to scratch Magnolia's nose. "I know when it itches," she says; Gladys recognises Magnolia's telltale gesture.
Angie, who sits at the dining table eating a chocolate biscuit with a glass of milk, recalls her grandmother as being affectionate. Her earliest memory of that changing was when Magnolia, already showing signs of Alzheimer's, spanked her when she was seven or eight years old. Angie was stunned by Magnolia's behaviour but said she felt better after going to workshops at the Alzheimer's research facility, which explained the disease's symptoms to her.
Angie, who is studying to be a chemical engineer, says she wouldn't be able to manage with the baby if it weren't for her family.
Behind her, Gladys folds and refolds Magnolia's limbs to keep them supple and props her head against a fluffy lime-green pillow.
The Piedrahita family's story echoes others' in Antioquia. Consuela de las Mercedes Valencia Mora, 69, a warm, chatty grandmother with close-cropped hair, says she grew up in Angostura surrounded by cattle, sugar cane and the dread of seeing an unknown disease spread its tentacles to claim friends and neighbours.
"Everyone would say, 'Oh, this one is going to die of stupidity' because we didn't know what the disease was," she says.
Consuela, who has four sisters, says that one of her two sisters who died of Alzheimer's had 14 children, four of whom now have the disease, while six others have already died from it. She says the four remaining siblings are unlikely to get the disease since they're past the age - typically their 30s and 40s - when people start showing symptoms of this particular mutation.
"When they call me to say somebody died, I just say, 'Thank God, it's okay. It's a horrible disease'," she says. "This is worse than AIDS and cancer."
It's especially tough on caregivers, she adds. "In every family that I see, I ask: 'Who is taking care of this person?' It's always the wives and daughters, but those very people get sick themselves."
In Gladys' darkest, bleakest moments - seeing Alzheimer's sever the arms of her family tree - she taps into a wellspring of emotion to fortify her resolve. "The love for my children gives me a lot of strength and the love that my mum always gave us," she says. "If the sick person was my father, it would've been more difficult because he was never there for us."
In the living room, Magnolia faces the street from her wheelchair, sunlight pouring in through the door and windows. Gladys heats milk for tea. One of her dogs settles near her feet. "The female dog, she learned everything from the cat," Gladys notes with fondness. "So she licks herself and behaves like a cat."

Before Sultan came to Germany, his way from his homeland Pakistan led him in Turkey. There he got a work accident in a copper mine and had a serious eyes injury. Up to saving transplant of his right eye, he had to wait during 1 year in darkness.


Full disclosure: I'm a 49ers football fan.
So when I read this ESPN article about how former New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams instructed his team to try to intentionally injure 49ers in a playoff game, I was a little more bothered than I should have been. But even setting aside my team allegiances, the article shows a very dark side to the NFL and a game that many of us love.
The NFL is already in hot water over head injuries in football and whether the league is doing enough to protect players and warn them about the risks of concussions and head trauma. Head injuries can be very serious, as the other attorneys in my firm and I know all too well. Multiple retired players have brought lawsuits against the NFL for health issues and disabilities that they now face. Williams' recorded statements certainly don't help the league's image, and they raise questions about the role coaches play in raising the stakes of the game.
There is a counterpoint to this argument, of course, and it's one that I've heard many times. Admittedly, I've never been in a college or pro football locker room, but many of those who have say this type of Saturday evening speech is pretty typical. Also, there is little evidence that Saints players actually delivered an inordinate number of illegal hits. So the argument that Williams and the team are being punished for words and not actions also makes some sense. The issue, in my opinion, is that Williams appeas to have advocated and encouraged violence itself rather than hard play. That crosses a line.
No doubt, professional football is a violent game. Most fans want it to be. The hit I remember the most during the Saints-49ers playoff game was delivered to Saints running back Pierre Thomas as he approached the goal line. The collision with San Francisco safety Donte Whitner was particularly hard. But it was legal under current rules and caused Thomas to fumble the football.
The 49ers recovered the ball, and Thomas never came back in the game. As a Niners fan, I was cheering along with everyone else. I am not advocating tag or flag football league here, but let's hope that statements like the ones Willims made during his locker room speech don't end up causing serious and unnecessary injuries and destroy a game so many love.


Developing video games is technically extremely challenging and an intensive creative team effort. The more important it is to have a great atmosphere with enough space around everyone to feel comfortable at work. At the same time short ways to communicate help tremendously to discuss and solve any issue within minutes instead of sitting in meetings dragging on forever.
This is why we took the chance to build the new studio facilities based on our experience of over 20 years of creative team work ourselves. We know that an open space working environment requires some discipline to keep the noise level low but turning around and have a look at each other's screen is just priceless. Lastly, being able to open any window to let in even more air keeps our brains fresh through the whole day.
As you can see below, we put a lot of effort into our new facilities and we are super happy that we got a nice open space studio in one of the most popular residential areas of Hamburg. It is surrounded by trees and located in the backyard of a quiet dead-end street. Lots of shops, restaurants and public transportation are nearby and the car sharing situation is just perfect as many people coming home are parking their Car2go or DriveNow within 3 minutes walking distance from our studio.


Optical disc packaging is a kind of packaging that packs DVDs, CDs and other formats of optical discs. Most of the packaging is semi-rigid or rigid and designed to protect the CD or DVD from scratches and other types of exposure that cause damage. A jewel case of CD or DVD is a compact disc case that has been in use since the first compact disc was invented. It is a three-piece plastic case, having a volume of 177.5 cubic centimeters (10.83 cu in) and measuring 142 by 125 by 10 millimeters (5.59 in × 4.92 in × 0.39 in), which usually consists of a compact disc along with a back card and the liner notes.
The back card is present underneath the media tray and is visible through the clear back, often listing the studio, track names, copyright data and other information. Also referred to as spine, the back card is folded into a flattened "U" shape, with the sides being visible along the ends.
The ends usually have the name of the artist and the date of release, and often information about catalog or label printed on them, and are designed to be visible when the case is stored vertically i.e. 'book-style', on shelves. Two transparent halves that oppose each other are hinged together to form the casing, the back half gripping a media tray that holds the disc by its hole.
This CD jewel case is the standard case used by most of the manufacturers and it is the most common type of case found in movie stores and record.


Kamio Ring-Lights provide a glamour lighting solution for close ups in film and video photography. The soft, cool Kamio light falls gracefully on the subject's face because it mounts on the lens, unlike conventional on-camera quartz lights that produce heat and shadows. Kamios also display daylight and tungsten quality light without filtration.

Greenville dad uses racing hobby to spread autism awareness
Jim Collar
Kevin Hanegraaf is at long last living the high-octane dream he deferred to raise a family.
The off-road racer has a dedicated crew. They've worked feverishly to have his super truck at its peak for a fast and dusty, five-event summer racing series.
Hanegraaf, 53, of Greenville, has always thrived on competition, yet family and fatherhood added something else. It's no longer just a matter of feeding the competitive drive.
"We have a passion to race," he said. "Second to that is my passion for autism awareness."
Enter the Allies of Autism Off-Road Racing Team.
Hanegraaf determined his hobby — one that draws thousands of fans to dusty tracks in northeast Wisconsin and Michigan's Upper Peninsula — could provide a big platform for a cause that means so much to his family.
Hanegraaf and his wife, Vicki, have twin 18-year-old sons living with severe autism. The couple has been blessed with strong support as they've raised Kade and Kyle. It hasn't been the storybook life, Kevin said, but it's been a good one and they know many families have tougher struggles.
"It's a 24-7 effort to try to guide a child with autism," he said.
Promoting awareness
Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects communication and the ability to interact with others, according to Mayo Clinic. It carries a wide range of characteristics that can include repetitive behaviors, disengagement and unusual sensitivity to light, sound or touch.
The Hanegraafs' efforts on behalf of others touched by autism began well before Kevin hit the race track.
They've raised more than $25,000 for charities through events over the last eight years.
Vicki Hanegraaf said awareness has grown, but there's still a lot to accomplish.
It's important that families touched by autism have every available resource. It's important that the general community understand and create some comfort for families to bring their loved ones out of the home. Simple trips to the store contribute to growth.
"We've seen the fruit of that," Vicki said.
Kevin is in his third season of racing. It's his first with his own truck. He established Allies of Autism this year as a nonprofit organization.
"Half of any cash winnings we take, we'll give back to the autism community," Hanegraaf said.
If he doesn't place, he'll still donate.
Just as important, the truck will serve as a billboard to as many as 100,000 people expected to reach the stands over the course of the series at tracks in Crandon and Bark River, Mich.
He's hopeful his truck and team will spark thoughts, pique curiosities and encourage race fans to learn more and to get involved.
He'd wondered about how much the race team could do. He was encouraged when an elderly woman noticed his team shirt at a restaurant and offered thanks. She has a grandchild with autism.
"Those are the special moments," he said.
'We never let autism hold us back'
There are a lot of laughs at home. There are also tears and points of frustration.
Kade and Kyle are energetic young men and they're always on the move. Kevin had an expression of pride when talking about all progress that's unfolded as they've grown. They went through exhaustive in-home therapy.
Today, they do well to communicate wants and needs, though not in the typical, conversational means. They have their own ways. It comes through words. It comes through movements. They've made good use of keyboards.
The methods don't matter.
"Autism doesn't define them," Kevin said.
They need supervision. The Hanegraafs installed some fail-safe measures. They have locks with codes to ensure they won't slip out the door and wander off. They keep the kitchen cabinets locked to keep them from fully indulging those teenage appetites.
The twins adore the iPad. Kevin pointed out what he affectionately called the "kid cage." Their spacious, fenced-in backyard has a large playground shaped like a ship. It's a safe, familiar place for his sons to burn energy — and they love the swings.
It's been their refuge.
Kevin has been shaped by Kade and Kyle. He carries an intuitive sense of their whereabouts. There's a natural, loving patience in his interactions. There's humor, respect and a great deal of tenderness as they engage.
They're simply his sons.
"We try to do everything typical," he said. "We never let autism hold us back. If it holds us back, we'll try again."
On the track
Kevin was a competitor long before he became a dad. He spent his weekends as a teenager as a motocross racer. He played sports in college.
He was thrilled when given the chance to race, and said he couldn't do it without his wife.
He deserves it, Vicki said, because "I've seen him be such a champion off the track."
It felt good to get those competitive juices flowing again.
He said there's no better scent than fuel on race day, and a well-tuned engine sounds like an orchestra. Anxiety builds throughout pre-race preparations. The green flag drops and anxiety falls off as attention turns to upcoming jumps while topping 80 mph.
Kade and Kyle are in a sense with their dad when he's on the track. Their names are painted on the truck.
During a race, he's in a zone.
What could have been words of lament were offered in an upbeat tone. For many in the racing circuit, it's the time when the torch is passed and fathers become mentors to the next generation. That isn't his case.
"That's OK," Hanegraaf said. "We don't have that. We have this, and that's awesome, too."
A team in his corner
Hanegraaf's race team is made up of his greatest allies.
Todd Schuh, a close friend and member of Hanegraaf's crew, said he and Kevin had attended races together going back to their teenage years. It's a demanding hobby that couldn't happen without passion, he said.
Talking about the cause proved difficult. He teared up, searched for words, but couldn't complete his thought.
Stewart Hanegraaf, Kevin's brother and member of the team, jumped in to assist. He said the team sees it as their job to get Kevin onto the winner's podium. There, he'll get a microphone and a chance to talk of his boys and explain their mission.
Hanegraaf said he'll eventually leave the racing scene, and when he does, Allies of Autism will simply transform. He'd like to provide space and partner with businesses for an assembly shop that would give those with autism productive opportunities.
Hanegraaf said there are plenty of moments to celebrate when parenting autistic children. Each new task they learn is an accomplishment. Kade and Kyle continue to make strides.
He's amazed by how hard they work.
"They're the unsung heroes," he said. "They're the gentle giants. They endure, they continue to make gains and they never cease to surprise me."

Crowdfund This: 'Send Me' – New Web Series w/ Tracie Thoms Dealing w/ Black People Sent Back in Time to Slavery Days
Yeah, I know what you're thinking. Who in their right
mind would want to do that?
But then again, the premise of the currently-in-development
web series is what definitely makes it unique, wouldn't you agree?
Created by playwright, screenwriter and actor Steve Harper, and starring Tracie Thoms ("Annie," "Death Proof," "Looper" among many other film and
TV roles), "Send Me" deals with a black woman (Thoms) who has the power to send
black people back in time to slavery days.
But Harper makes clear to point out that the people
who do this in the series are doing it of their own free will: "It's
not a punishment. They want to go – to explore their blackness, their history,
to connect to who they are. It takes place now, in 2014, and it involves time
travel. Candidates apply for the chance to take the trip. Those who want to go
are trying to find out who they are now based on who their ancestors were."
According to Harper, he created "Send Me" because: "in a landscape of silly web comedies
and soapy relationship videos, 'Send Me' aims higher. This is a piece about
identity, the past, the future and where we find ourselves. What is our
obligation to our history? How do we balance an understanding of who we are now
with who we once were – personally and historically?"
He further went on to say that: "I want to expand the
dialogue and create a dramatic piece that resonates nationwide among Americans
of all races. Through this web series, we raise deep questions about who we are
now as a people – and where we came from."
Of course realizing that
no network is going to take a chance on a series based on such a highly charged
and controversial subject, Harper has decided to make his project
as a web series and has launched an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign to raise
$100,000 to cover the shooting and post-production, starting sometime
in which Harper explains more about "Send Me" and go HERE to check out the
project's Indiegogo page.


Machined from billet 17-7 stainless steel.
This works great if you like a larger catch. I do. The horizontal "grooves"/checkering match the look of mil spec controls like mag releases and safeties. I needed the bright finish and thin grooves that are on this unit, to match the bright finish and grooves of the other controls on the rifle. (Sorry I can't think of the correct term for the "grooves". Senior moment!) The only reason it didn't get a 5 star rating was because the finish was a little beat up by the time I got it. The edges were a little rough too. But really I am picking nits here. The roughness was very slight.
It is hard to find stainless small parts for AR builds, but I finally found this one. It comes with a matte finish, I polished it to a mirror finish for my "flashy mid life crisis rifle" build. All small parts are either polished stainless or titanium. This fit the bill just right for my purposes. The only thing that I wish was a little better would be the removal of tool marks. It was not noticeable with the matte finish, but became apparent when I polished it. Took a lot to remove the tool marks, but if you're gonna use it as is it is a great bolt catch.


Factors To Consider When Buying The Best Cat Products When it comes to cats, what they eat really matters a lot. The major area that is expensive when it comes to keeping a cat will be the vet services a s well as the buying of the food. Keep in mind that the cat should always be fed a proper diet to avoid being sick. In that case you will be cutting down the costs that one has to go through when you visit them. You will find that there are things that you will have to look at when it comes to buying the cat food in this case. The first thing you need to know is that all meals that the cat eats should always be balanced. You will find that the cat will need poultry or even fish in their bodies all the time. You will find that unlike the other animals, the cats do not need the carbohydrates to be able to survive although you will find that they tend to have fillers made of the corns. You will find the coloring which is mostly done by the manufactures in this case to appear pleasing to the people in a way. You will find that for the canned ones there will be a need to get preservatives in this case which keeps them fresh for longer. The thought that many people go through is whether to feed the cats the dry or even the canned foods in this case. You will find that both foods are always good if the ingredients. You will find that people who tend to leave the cats for a long time will go for the dry foods since it can be left out for a longer period of time. You will easily find that the canned foods tend to come along with water in them. In this case you will not worry whether the cat is drinking enough water a day or not.
It will be very easy to find the cats being able to eat the same food over and over each other time. You will find that this will not only be boring but also can easily affect the life of a cat. Bring out a variety of food which will have the cats enjoy in this case. You may look at the way you will be able to add something different when the cat feeds so that you can feel the change.
There are foods which bring allergy to the cats. You will thus need to look keenly on the cat and see what really brings a trigger reaction on it. Look out with a vet to see if there is something that is not right with the cat when you feed it.

Q: Joptionpane does not process switch-case Am having issues with my switch-case options and joptionpane. After selecting one of the four options the program ends. It doesn't display the selection. It should display the choice/selection.
  import javax.swing.JOptionPane; // JOptionPane call

  public class OnlineStore
  {
     // public static void main(String[] args) // main program
      public void display_menu() // Not the main program but the main menu.
      {
          String main_selection;
          int mSelect;

          main_selection = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Welcome!\n\n1. Add T-                Shirt Order\n2. Edit T-Shirt Order\n3. View Current Order\n4. Checkout\n\nPlease   enter your choice: ");
    mSelect = Integer.parseInt(main_selection);

      }

      public OnlineStore() // Switch-case program
      {
          display_menu(); // Call display menu.
          switch (mSelect)
          {
              case 1:
                  JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 1");
                  break;
              case 2:
                  JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 2");
                  break;
              case 3:
                  JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 3");
                  break;
              case 4:  // Deliberately not including a default selection.
                  JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 4");
                  break;
           }

      }

      public static void main(String[] args) // main program
      {
          new OnlineStore(); // Call out the program.
      }
  }

When I use Scanner the results are ok.

A: Declare mSelect variable inside class not inside method.
public class OnlineStore {
int mSelect;
// public static void main(String[] args) // main program

public void display_menu() // Not the main program but the main menu.
{
    String main_selection;

    main_selection = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Welcome!\n\n1. Add T-                Shirt Order\n2. Edit T-Shirt Order\n3. View Current Order\n4. Checkout\n\nPlease   enter your choice: ");
    mSelect = Integer.parseInt(main_selection);

}

public OnlineStore() // Switch-case program
{
    display_menu(); // Call display menu.
    switch (mSelect) {
        case 1:
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 1");
            break;
        case 2:
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 2");
            break;
        case 3:
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 3");
            break;
        case 4:  // Deliberately not including a default selection.
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 4");
            break;
    }

}

public static void main(String[] args) // main program
{
    new OnlineStore(); // Call out the program.
}}

A: The main problem is that there is no contextual relationship between what is happening in display_menu and what your processing in OnlineStore.
Instead, why not have display_menu return the selected value/option and include that in the switch statement, for example
public class OnlineStore {

    // public static void main(String[] args) // main program

    public int display_menu() // Not the main program but the main menu.
    {
        String main_selection;

        main_selection = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Welcome!\n\n1. Add T-                Shirt Order\n2. Edit T-Shirt Order\n3. View Current Order\n4. Checkout\n\nPlease   enter your choice: ");
        return Integer.parseInt(main_selection);

    }

    public OnlineStore() // Switch-case program
    {
        switch (display_menu()) {
            case 1:
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 1");
                break;
            case 2:
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 2");
                break;
            case 3:
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 3");
                break;
            case 4:  // Deliberately not including a default selection.
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 4");
                break;
        }

    }

    public static void main(String[] args) // main program
    {
        new OnlineStore(); // Call out the program.
    }
}

Looping Menu
public class OnlineStore {

    // public static void main(String[] args) // main program

    public int display_menu() // Not the main program but the main menu.
    {
        String main_selection;

        main_selection = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Welcome!\n\n1. Add T-                Shirt Order\n2. Edit T-Shirt Order\n3. View Current Order\n4. Checkout\n\nPlease   enter your choice: ");
        return Integer.parseInt(main_selection);

    }

    public OnlineStore() // Switch-case program

        boolean exit = false;
        do {
            switch (display_menu()) {
                case 1:
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 1");
                    break;
                case 2:
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 2");
                    break;
                case 3:
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 3");
                    break;
                case 4:  // Deliberately not including a default selection.
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Option 4");
                    break;
            }
        } while (!exit);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) // main program
    {
        new OnlineStore(); // Call out the program.
    }
}

A: At the moment, without the Scanner, no integer is set to mselect - so your switch choose the case default if you would define one like:
switch(mSelect){
.
.
.
default: JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "ERROR");
}

Another solution is that you set a default value to mSelect like
int mSelect = 1;

sThe International Legalization Handbook deals with the increasingly common problem of how to have official and private documents authenticated for use in other countries. This perennial need has been fuelled in recent years by an increase in the number of independent states in eastern Europe, and by the growth in international business.
The International Legalization Handbook provides a new understanding of the problems of international legalization, along with the original text of the 1961 Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents. While the Convention simplified the procedures applying to those countries which are signatories, a number of important countries have not yet acceded to it. For this reason, The International Legalization Handbook clearly sets out, in an alphabetical country-by country guide, the procedures to be followed when dealing with both signatories and non-signatories to The Convention. An appendix to the book lists the countries and jurisdictions that are parties to The Convention.
Written in language readily understood by experts and laymen alike The International Legalization Handbook provides the solutions to such problems as those faced by UK businessmen wanting to know how to submit an agreement in a legally acceptable form for use in China, or American lawyers wanting to have documents legalised for use in the countries of the former Soviet Union.
The International Legalization Handbook is an indispensable guide for low firms, banks, universities, embassies, consulates and international businesses.


Took my bike into the dealer Friday, they said there was a seal they needed to replace, but I don't think that's the issue... They had to order the seal, so we shall see, I guess.
My '17 has a slight spray on the cat but no other issues. Took it to my great local dealer, and BMW Aust covered it under warranty (good support!). Pump was replaced yesterday, and took long ride him and no coolant blowing out on to the cat now. New pump looks quite different, which hopefully means they have fixed the problem.
Interesting, since my cheap-a$$ dealer is only replacing seals, according to what they told me... the dealer I have to deal with is such garbage I've been waiting 3 weeks for the parts only to get a call Wednesday to tell me that "good news, BMW will cover the repair under warranty". Well I would hope so, it's clearly a warranty item.
Well not a good start.
Bike in for 1st service, told that "they had topped up the coolant as it was low" Rode the bike to work then home 42 miles in total and the level is below the Min mark again. No obvious leaks, no puddles on garage floor.
Sorry to hear that mate but also not that surprised.
Can you see any coolant leaks from the weep hole under the pump?
The recovery person who took my bike back to BMW for repair suggested to always ask for a loan vehicle, even if you don't need it, BMW prioritise repairs for customers who have a loan vehicle.makes sense.
I couldn't be bothered to take it in last time so called BMW Assist to take it to the dealer and return it to me, which they did without quibble.
Just to add , the water pump must be a BMW thing as last Saturday I met up with a few friends I hadnt seen for ages who ride the GS adventure type bikes and out of the 3 of them, 2 had replacement pumps, one again leaked a few weeks after its replacement..
My 2018 at 3000km was showing signs of leaking on the cat after a hard ride. After further inspection, i saw that it was coming from the grommet on the underside of the water pump.
took it to the dealer, made an appointment the same week. they replaced the water pump on warranty.
According to the service manager (who's a decent guy) he's only seen a few 'weeping pumps' on both 17 and 18 models.
...at 4900km now, issue has not resurfaced.

Judge Freezes Alex Murdaugh's Money as Lawsuits Grow
By Jeffrey Collins | November 3, 2021
CHESTERFIELD, S.C. (AP) — A judge Tuesday ordered independent representatives to take over the finances of a prominent South Carolina lawyer whose wife and son were killed five months ago and has since found himself part of a half-dozen state investigations.
Judge Daniel Hall sided with an attorney suing Alex Murdaugh on behalf of the family of a 19-year-old woman killed in a crash on Murdaugh's boat which prosecutors said his late son was driving.
The family's lawsuit says Murdaugh is trying to hide millions of dollars they could possibly collect in their lawsuit and he could shift money between unknown accounts and potentially sell off property and a boat after he turned all his affairs over to his surviving son, Buster Murdaugh.
"They have refused from day one to give me any information," attorney Mark Tinsley said.
The receivers will review and catalog all of Murdaugh's assets and approve whether he can spend money. They will get part of any legal settlements or judgements against Murdaugh in the cases they are involved.
The judge told Tinsley to write an order and file it with his office.
A lawyer for Murdaugh argued he has not been found responsible in any civil suits since his wife and son were killed and has insurance to cover if he is required to pay damages.
Attorney John Tiller also argued at a Friday hearing that if Murdaugh loses control of his assets, that would open the door for similar things to happen in countless other cases if the person who sues thinks the defendant does not have enough insurance.
Alex Murdaugh remains in the Richland County jail without bond after being charged with stealing nearly $3 million in insurance payments meant for the sons of his housekeeper, who died in a 2018 fall in his home. His legal team did not immediately respond to a request to comment on Tuesday's ruling.
The lawyers for the housekeeper's family and a second teen who survived the boat crash have also sued Murdaugh and helped with getting the receivers. Those attorneys expect judges in their cases to allow them to use the independent monitors.
Murdaugh, 53, also faces criminal charges in a second case. He was first arrested Sept. 16 and was accused of trying to arrange his own death so his surviving son Buster could collect a $10 million life insurance policy. That same day, the father signed a power of attorney for all his affairs over to his son, according to court records.
Murdaugh insists he had nothing to do with the June deaths of his wife, Maggie, 52, and their son Paul, 22. Murdaugh said he returned to their rural Colleton County home to find them shot to death. Tight-lipped state police have neither named any suspects nor ruled anyone out.
