A stunningly rare Triumph Dolomite Sprint with low enthusiast ownership.
Four sealed-beamed headlights, front air spoiler, full length coach stripe, opening front quarter-lights, vinyl roof, heated rear window, rear armrest, drivers seat height adjustment with recline, adjustable steering column, walnut facia, Thru Flow ventilation system with 2-speed booster fan, seat stretch pockets, tachometer, water and battery gauges, combination dial with warning lamps, electric clock, cigar lighter, hazard warning switch, twin wind-tone horns, four ashtrays. Factory Equipment: Tinted laminated windscreen.
This range-topping Dolomite Sprint is finished in Carmine Red, (Code 82) and has a deep rich shine thanks to a privileged pampered existence. The black grained vinyl roof is in perfect order and sporting features unique to the Sprint model such as the full length coach strip and matt black rear end panel remain present. The heavily chromed wrap around front and rear bumpers show a little dulling but do not detract from the show like appearance. All Sprint badging is proudly displayed along with the original period number plates. A rare British icon in such unmolested condition.
Lavishly appointed in Chesnut brushed broadcord Bri-Nylon trim, (Code C63), the interior condition reflects the cossetted low owner credentials. Fitted plush pile carpet with integral underlay retain their colour with only minor wear apparent under close scrutiny. The elegant walnut facia and deep wood veneer door cappings really have defied age thanks to dry garage storage. The comprehensive range of instruments, controls and switches are all functional except for the electric clock. Comfort and support is guaranteed with wide front fully adjustable seats. The boot area is spotlessly clean with an unbroken plywood support. Remarkably factory correct in all respects.
The jewel in this model is the powerful 1998cc slant 4 engine with 16 valves, cross flow ports, aluminium cylinder head and twin SU carbs. Maximum power is quoted at 127bhp with 0-60mph despatched in 9.2 seconds and a M.I.R.A recorded 116mph top speed. Comprehensive invoices will reassure the next custodian with regards to the mechanical upkeep and correct operation. The sturdy 4-speed transmission with working overdrive is light, precise and a delight to use.
The Sprint was the first British saloon to wear alloy wheels as standard and the stylish GKN wheels on this example are immaculate shod with branded tyres displaying ample tread. Front discs and rear drums with servo boost give good stopping power.
The British Motor Industry Heritage Certificate confirms the date of build of this desirable Sprint model to be the 21st March 1974. Registered by Barnard Motors Limited on the 6th June 1974 this cherished example has only had three former keepers from new. Owned by Mrs Sonia Ziegler for 26 years and Triumph enthusiasts since, this car really has been pampered. The history files reveals thousands spent by renowned specialists including Jigsaw Racing Services and represents a superb fully documented and rare find. A replacement speedo was fitted in 2015 at 67,254 miles and now reads 3,610 so is unwarranted. The history file includes many invoices, MOT certificates, previous registration documents a sales brochure and all spare keys. This is an historically important British motoring icon and presents in fabulous, usable show condition.

Former British Lion rugby star Allan Bateman teamed up with staff and supporters from Wales & West Housing and Cambria Maintenance Services to raise money for local charities.
A charity rugby tournament, organised by WWH staff with the help of the Welsh Charitables RFC Veterans charity and partner contractors Thermal Earth, brought hundreds of people to Penarth RFC.
More than £7,000 was raised on the night through sponsorship, ticket sales, raffles, a charity sporting memorabilia auction and other activities.
The main beneficiaries were Age Cymru which is WWH's staff charity, and Penarth father-of-three Matt Burns, whose wife Jo, works at WWH's head office in Cardiff. Matt is currently undergoing chemotherapy for cancer and his family and friends are raising £30,000 towards potential future treatment.
Eight teams from local businesses and organisations including Cardiff Council, Cambria Maintenance Services, Nelson RFC, Peacocks and WWH took part in a seven-a-side touch rugby tournament. A team of Matt's colleagues from Peacocks won the competition .
During the evening a WWH select 15 team of professional and regional club rugby players along with WWH & Cambria staff took on the Welsh Charitables RFC Veterans. Among the well-known faces were Allan Bateman, internationals Rhodri Jones, Gareth Bowen, Richard Johnston and Hywel Davies and several former professional players.
WWH Chief Executive Anne Hinchey said: "A huge thank you to everyone involved; from the Welsh Charitable Veterans, our contractors and WWH staff, families and friends and everyone who turned up on the night to show their support.
Carwyn Thomas, who helped to organise the event on behalf of renewable heating specialists Thermal earth, said: "We were delighted to support WWH and the Welsh Charitables RFC Veterans for this incredible evening and give something back to deserving causes.

Question: can the Tibetan certificate be administered?
Answer: travel agency can be in charge of the Tibetan Certificate (into the Tibetan letter), but not all travel agencies can charge. Only appointed by the Tibet Tourism Bureau, Tibet local travel agency with high strength can do the agency. Due to the provisions of the National Tourism Bureau, foreign tourists, Taiwan visitors and overseas Chinese (except Hongkong, Macao residents who hold Chinese passport or to permit free) in Tibet are not allowed, regardless of the number of guests must travel in group. In addition, the tourism bureau does not accept the application made by foreign tourists in their own name, so it must be done by a qualified local travel agency in Tibet.
The foreign guests will copy of passport and visa China (Taiwan compatriots to submit MTP or Taiwan card), and the travel plan for you to handle the travel agency can Tibet card. Tibet visa after travel to send your Tibet card, only Tibet card to landing aircraft and train and travel tours.
If foreigners and compatriots in to participate in the Tibet tourism network domain long tours, can be Chinese your passport, visa copy mail to us, we can handle the formalities for you to tibet.

This is sounding so very sublime this morning. It's pretty cold outside, well, it's cold, like 1°C outside, but the sun is bright, coming in through the windows, hitting its edges and making long angles of light on the walls. For some reason, a nice fresh slice of rap goes with this kind of morning just as perfectly as next-to-frozen apple juice and a bowl of your favourite cereal. Ya it's a beautiful sleepy morning and this song 'HypeBeast' matches up just perfectly.
But who has made this lovely tune? It comes from 20-year-old Los Angeles-based rapper Toni Willz and producer AbJo, purveyor of smooth sounds and fine beats. Put these two elements together and you get something pretty magical – it's an exercise in a chilled out, horizontal vibe augmented with a few hits of nostalgic skate-rap's easy-peasy no-sweat attitude. I urge you to treat your ears to this right now.
With laid-back liquid precision, the sounds of the track flow out in a head-nodding medley of boom-bap flavoured drums combined with shiftling glitch-induced percussion and unrecognisable snippet samples that ripple in slow-motion kickflip aesthetic, backed up by subtle, glassy bass. It's wholly fresh yet summons the spirit of the ever-present endless summer – the kind of thing that oozes effortlessly out of sunny places like California. Field recorded conversations about being a "hypebeast" raise up like a kind of cultural backdrop for the song, and it certainly works in placing the song, i.e. giving it even more of a sense of coming from a place in space and time.
Toni Willz exhales his bars with nonchalant confidence, sticking with a po-faced low-register tone that flutters just around the same note for the whole song – exudes a certain swagger. His words defame "hypebeasts", presumably rappers completely wrapped up in hype and celebrity, citing himself as a contrast as someone who just lives their life and raps. For instance "All these new waves form like the ocean / No more one hit wonders, we need true devotion" – "In just reality you learn a life-lesson: true rappers live, hypebeasts go to heaven." The point is made with his "new Nirvana flow" making religious metaphors throughout, ultimately coming across with untouchable poetic lilt as someone who will continue to rap with consistent ear-pleasing quality.

Any idea where or how the Blade form is calling the Validator so I can add my custom code to set the SQL connection?
Alternatively, can I turn off the Blade validation and let my Store method call the validator as documented?

In spite of a logging ban and UNESCO biosphere reserve status, chunks of old-growth forest are being cut down to make way for mines or plantations. Thousands of hectares of trees have been lost on Palawan since 2001, spelling danger for many depending on the forest.
To save the island from ecological disaster, environmental campaigners and organisations like the Palawan NGO Network Inc., or PNNI, directly address the issue. They capture loggers and their equipment, storm businesses without permits to operate and expose corporations and corrupt politicians.
Their job is dangerous, as the Philippines is the second deadliest country for green activists. Despite risking their lives and careers, environmentalists keep struggling for Palawan and its inhabitants.
RTD visits the Philippines to meet prominent advocates, including former environment secretary of the Philippines Gina Lopez, ousted from office for her anti-mining stance, and Brooke's Point Mayor Mary Jean Feliciano, who is waging a campaign against a nickel corporation. RTD also follows Palawan's indigenous tribes, Tau't Bato, Domadoay and Tagbanwa, all affected by the corporate onslaught and illegal activities.

SNOWSHOE MAGAZINE FEATURED ARTICLE:
Team in Training Hosts Snowshoeing Event in Rocky Mountain National Park
Written by Matt Sutkoski
People run, bike, walk and swim for charity. So why not snowshoe?
On the last weekend in February, 17 people tried just that, snowshoeing around Loche Vale Lake and Black Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park near Estes Park, Colo.
The snowshoeing event came courtesy of the Rocky Mountain chapter of Team in Training (TNT), which is the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's charity sports training program. The group holds a variety of athletic events as fundraisers to combat blood cancers such as lymphoma and leukemia. Money raised through the organization also helps make blood cancer patients and their families more comfortable.
The 17 participants who snowshoed through parts of Rocky Mountain National Park raised more than $35,000, trekking along either a 6.2 mile or 10.2 mile course, said organizer Cindy Parr. "I am so pleased to announce that all of our participants completed their finale snowshoe adventures with huge smiles on their faces," Parr said after the Feb. 27 event.
Money from the event is still coming in, so the total amount of money raised is expected to go up, she said.
Team in Training has been doing sporting events fundraisers for years, but this is the first time the group has tried snowshoeing. The Feb. 27 event in Colorado was a test case for Team in Training. If it worked, the organization plans to spread the idea to other chapters elsewhere in the country.
It worked, big time, Parr said. Even the snow gods were in the mood to give by dumping some fresh powder on the snowshoe course in the hours leading up to the trek. The 17 people who spent the day snowshoeing solicited money from friends, family and co-workers – accounting for the thousands of dollars in pledges. Corporate sponsors also helped out, and participants held fundraising events, such as breakfast at an Applebee's restaurant that brought in more than $1,000.
The snowshoe event was successful even with Rocky Mountain National Park restrictions that keep the size of hiking and snowshoeing groups to a minimum.
The Rocky Mountain chapter of Team in Training plans no fewer than 14 marathons, triathlons, cycling races and other events this summer and fall to raise more money to fight blood cancers. Parr said given the success of this year's snowshoe event, the chapter will probably hold a similar even next winter. The idea is also expected to spread to other Team in Training chapters in snowy parts of the nations.
None of next winter's events have been scheduled yet. They will likely occur during the course of the winter, with a finale event, similar to this year's, held again in Rocky Mountain National Park, Parr said. The finale event next year will probably take place in the middle of March, she said.
According to Team in Training's Web site, 420,000 participants in various athletic events have raised more than $1 billion over its 22-year history. TNT has also become the world's largest endurance sports training program. Within the Rocky Mountain chapter of TNT, based in Denver, about 5,000 people have raised a total of $16 million through various sporting events to combat blood cancers.
TNT's parent organization, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, is the world's largest voluntary health organization dedicated to blood cancer research, according to the Society's Web site.

I must admit that it was a goof up by me actually. After mixing wet ingredients I found that maida(all purpose flour) is nowhere.
So it was suji(semolina) and wheat flour which extended their humble hand to me. " Behen hum hai na"! They cheered me up!
So I gave it a try and found that cake was 80% gulped by my students in one go. Now I took the charge and saved last 2-3 slices for me and started writing this recipe.
Do try if you never ever baked a cake with semolina and whole wheat flour. It is an eye opening experience indeed.
Warm it on high in microwave for 1 minute.
Mix this hot water n milk mix in the dry ingredients very well and keep aside covered.
Turn the oven on 250 degrees.
One orange's skin grated (around 2 tbsps)Only orange part.
Mix all these very well with a hand whisk.
Mix semolina mixture to this mixture. Whisk it well.
Pour it in a pan and slide it in oven.
Now change the temperature for 200 degrees.
Bake it for 35-40 minutes.
Let the oven bake it and take it out after baking done only. Let it be there for more 10-15 minutes when baking stops after 35-40 minutes.
Now take it out and scrape from the corners and keep this in fridge or cooling outside on kitchen counter covered.

When Public Comments Aren't Public: Land Agency Holding Records
By Bobby Magill
BLM declines to publish many public 'scoping' comments
Land agency FOIA backlog up to three years long
Usually when public comments are filed with a federal agency, they are made, well, public. Not so for the Bureau of Land Management, which is demanding that in some cases, such comments only be obtained through the cumbersome Freedom of Information Act.
Critics say the BLM's action is part of a pattern shaping up in the Interior Department over the past year or more of delaying or denying requests for basic information from journalists and the public.
At issue this time are "public scoping" comments related to a far-reaching grazing rule, a draft of which is expected to be published this summer. The rule will affect livestock use, water quality, wildfire, endangered species, and control of 154 million acres of federal land in 13 states.
The agency is spurning its obligation under the National Environmental Policy Act to make writing new rules a fully open process, environmental groups say.
"NEPA is a transparency rule, and putting comments in a vault and making it difficult to access seems to run contrary to the purpose of the statute," said Ted Zukoski, a senior attorney for the Center for Biological Diversity, an environmental group.
The BLM, which oversees more than 250 million acres of federal land mostly in the West, is the nation's largest single land manager and is in charge of federal oil, gas, and coal leasing—essential elements of the Trump administration's fossil fuels-focused energy agenda.
"BLM decision-makers have the discretion to publish or not publish unredacted scoping comments as deemed appropriate to the circumstances, agency capacity, and other applicable factors," BLM spokesman Derrick Henry said.
Essential for Challengers
To be fair, "scoping" comments are a bit different from typical public commentary, which is posted online automatically. These comments are gathered separately as a way to help agencies understand what the public thinks is at stake and what issues need to be addressed in an upcoming project, rulemaking, or plan.
Scoping comments don't address specifics of a draft plan. Federal agencies ask the public for these comments after they have announced they'll be working on a new initiative. The comments are intended to help an agency figure out what issues should be covered in a draft of the upcoming rule.
"The purposes of scoping are, at an early stage, to get a sense of what needs to be studied in an environmental impact statement so some agency doesn't spend months and months, and missed a major issue," said Nicholas Yost, who led the Carter administration's effort to draft the Council on Environmental Quality's rules for implementing NEPA.
"From the public's point of view, that becomes their first opportunity to say, 'Hey, this concerns us, please study it, please analyze it,'" said Yost, who is now retired.
It's not just comments on new grazing rules being kept under wraps. Scoping comments are also missing for a plan to build an 11,000-mile network of fire breaks in Western states, a 1,000-mile network of natural gas pipeline corridors in Wyoming, a New Mexico wind farm, and a plan to build a highway through a Mojave desert tortoise conservation area in Utah.
Documents Not 'In Any Way Protected'
The BLM said it plans to summarize the scoping comments with names of the commenters struck from the public record. But that would still prevent the public—including attorneys, industry groups, and other government agencies—from seeing who's influencing how grazing will be managed long before the new rule is finalized.
Scoping comments aren't protected from public view under federal law, but NEPA doesn't require the land agency to make them easily available, said Sam Kalen, a law professor focusing on public lands and energy at the University of Wyoming College of Law.
"They have exercised that authority to curtail the ability to easily get access to scoping comments," Kalen said. "The reason for doing that would be to shield that information for as long as possible. There is no way to argue that those documents are in any way protected."
The intent of NEPA is to promote robust deliberation and public comment, said Alejandro Camacho, a law professor and director of the Center for Land, Environment and Natural Resources and the University of California-Irvine.
"BLM is violating the goals and purposes of NEPA," Camacho said.
Knowing who commented and what they said is essential to groups and attorneys poised to challenge new rules and projects.
Summaries 'Not Very Helpful'
Summaries of scoping comments are "not very helpful because it would be interesting to know if a comment came from a paid attorney for a party that had a financial interest in the outcome of the project, or if it came from a state agency reflecting the public interest," Zukoski, from the Center for Biological Diversity, said.
The BLM is also inconsistent. On some of its most controversial rules and projects, the BLM posts scoping comments raw and unaltered. It posted all the scoping comments in their raw form for the Trump administration's controversial plan to open Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling, and for a separate plan to open the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska to new drilling.
The bureau's scoping process is supposed to be "early and open" to allow the public to help determine all the issues that need to be addressed in a certain project or rulemaking, said Aladdine Joroff, a staff attorney at Harvard Law School.
Avoiding making public comments public "hurts the heart of NEPA," she said.
"It seems strange not to do this, particularly now when the FOIA officers are understaffed," Joroff said. "There is an expectation when you file comments that they could be made public. They should be automatically available even if not explicitly required to."
Pattern on Information
FOIA has become a major point of political contention at the Interior Department and the Environmental Protection Agency, which both had administrators felled by revelations resulting from FOIA disclosures.
A 2018 congressional investigation found that the EPA manipulated its handling of records requests to prioritize records from the Obama administration over those involving former EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt and other Trump administration officials. It also allowed political appointees to review planned responses to FOIA requests.
Former Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke resigned his post the same year, after documents disclosed under FOIA exposed evidence that he may have used his position for personal benefit.
Since then, the department issued new rules for how it would process FOIA requests and, separately, implemented an "awareness review" process that would allow the Interior solicitor's office to review any records requested under the act that name current or former political appointees.
Attorneys for advocacy groups say Interior is generally hostile to all FOIA requests because it exposes them to political risk.
"Ultimately, it's the goal of the agency to expend fewer resources on handling FOIA. They consider it to be only a means for opponents of the Department of Interior to get ammunition to use against them in the public relations sphere," said Kevin Bell, staff counsel for Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, an environmental group.
The Interior Department said it was getting more, and more complicated, requests, since 2016, and was working to improve its systems to speed up response times.
'A Lot of Us ... Are Frustrated'
The new Interior rules, first proposed in the final days of Zinke's term as secretary, aim to "streamline" Interior's FOIA responses as records requests jumped 30% between 2016 and 2018.
The awareness review process and the new rules allow policymakers to weigh in on any FOIA response that might be politically troublesome, disarming a law that aimed to make government open and transparent, Kalen, from the University of Wyoming College of Law, said.
"What this is doing—anything that retards that openness and transparency is geared toward benefiting whomever is in power at the time," Kalen said.
Interior FOIA officers say the department has drastically slowed the agency's records request response times, and officials sometimes find illegitimate reasons to delay responses to FOIA requests.
"You should be frustrated," said an Interior FOIA officer who spoke on condition of anonymity because the official wasn't authorized to speak to the press. The officer was referring to responses to a Bloomberg Law FOIA request that has been delayed for more than a year. That's in part because it had to be cleared by the White House, after officials cited what the FOIA officer called "bogus exemptions" to the public information law as reasons to avoid releasing records.
"A lot of us inside are frustrated because of the games that are being played," the officer said.
FOIA Bottlenecks
It can take the BLM months—or years—to fulfill FOIA requests because of long request backlogs and few staff to fill them, Bell, from the Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, said. Interior has deprioritized FOIA to the point that it has become an afterthought, Bell said.
As of the end of the last fiscal year, BLM had more pending FOIA requests—873—than any of the 11 other Interior divisions, except the Interior Secretary's office, according to the agency's annual FOIA report. That number was up to 937 as of the beginning of June, said Ryan Witt, BLM's acting chief of external affairs.
By contrast, other Interior agencies, including the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management and the U.S. Geological Survey, are processing fewer than 40 requests nationwide.
Regional FOIA officers at the land agency say they are overworked and understaffed. As of the start of the month, a BLM FOIA office in Montana was processing 50 FOIA requests dating back three years.
New FOIA requests the office receives are being put on hold indefinitely, said regional FOIA officer Tracy Thoricht, who added that she manages the region's FOIA program in addition to eight other programs.
"The volume and complexity of FOIA requests received by the Department has increased exponentially since 2016," Interior FOIA Office Director Rachel Spector said in a statement provided by the agency's public affairs office. "Many of the FOIA offices are overwhelmed, making it challenging to provide timely responses."
Interior has "streamlined" its FOIA response offices and is establishing uniform response standards across agencies, including addressing inefficiencies and strategically adding staff, Spector said.
'Huge Volume' to Deal With
Brian Smith, FOIA officer for the BLM's Eastern States office, said the agency is being inundated with FOIA requests, and he works alone processing his region's 30 outstanding queries.
"It's a huge volume that we're all having to deal with," he said.
Among BLM's backlogged FOIA requests is a Bloomberg Law request for the BLM's grazing regulations scoping comments filed March 3. The BLM hasn't yet responded to the request. Since late May, BLM acting FOIA Officer Keiosha Alexander also hasn't responded to repeated calls and emails seeking an update on the status of the request.
It's "really bad policy" to avoid making public comments public, especially when it takes a long time for an agency to respond to FOIA requests for the comments, said Yost, the Carter administration official.
"There are agencies who use FOIA to block access and keep stalling," Yost said.
The reporter on this story was president of the Society of Environmental Journalists in January 2019 when SEJ signed onto a Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press letter criticizing a draft of the Interior Department's proposed FOIA regulations.

Q: 301 redirect of rewritten pages I'm moving an existing projet from root to language folder /fr, in order to create a different english project located in /en.
The project is simple, it consists on two pages (index.php and liste.php).
The first page was receiving a parameter
/index.php?hash=[page-hash]

and was rewriten in the .htaccess as
/[page-hash].html

So here is the content of the old .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
#########   Page rewriting  ########
RewriteRule ^liste\.html$           liste.php [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$            index.php?hash=$1 [QSA,L]

I want the old rewritten pages (www.domain.com/[page-hash].html), which are indexed by Google, to be 301 redirected to www.domain.com/fr/[page-hash].html so that Google still find them at new new location and is informed it has been moved.
It's not a rewriting, it's a redirect, and I don't know how to do that. I guess I have to use RewriteCond and [R=301] but I don't know how.
Of course the new pages must also be rewritten (/fr/index.php?hash=[page-hash] into /fr/[page-hash].html), and the root generally redirected to /fr. So I already made this new .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
######## Redirect from root to /fr #######
RewriteRule ^$                      /fr
Redirect 301 /liste.html            /fr/liste.html
Redirect 301 /liste.php             /fr/liste.html
#########   Page rewriting  ########
RewriteRule ^fr/liste\.html$        /fr/liste.php [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^fr/(.*)\.html$         /fr/index.php?hash=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^en/list\.html$         /en/list.php [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^en/(.*)\.html$         /en/index.php?hash=$1 [QSA,L]

A: You're pretty close. You can condense those and you only need QSA (and B) when your substitution contains a query.
RewriteEngine On
######## Redirect from root to /fr #######
RewriteRule ^$ /fr/ [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)\.(?:html|php)$ /fr/$1.html [L,R=301]
######### Page rewriting ########
RewriteRule ^(fr/liste|en/list)\.html$ $1.php [L]
RewriteRule ^(fr|en)/([^/]+)\.html$ $1/index.php?hash=$2 [L,B,QSA]

A: Here is the complete answer. The order is important.
RewriteEngine On
#########   Page rewriting  ########
RewriteRule ^fr/liste\.html$        /fr/liste.php [L]
RewriteRule ^fr/(.*)\.html$         /fr/index.php?hash=$1 [L,B,QSA]
RewriteRule ^en/list\.html$         /en/list.php [L]
RewriteRule ^en/(.*)\.html$         /en/index.php?hash=$1 [L,B,QSA]
################ Redirect from root to /fr ################
RewriteRule ^$                      /fr [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^liste\.html$           /fr/liste.html [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$            /fr/$1.html [L,R=301]

This can still be condensed (see Walf's answer).


Combined forces will surpass IBM in enterprise security market share.
If 24 hours is a long time in politics, then perhaps just over a week is the optimal time in technology.
For in the space of ten days, IBM lost its enterprise security market crown.
On June 2, Blue Coat Systems publicly filed a registration statement for a proposed Initial Public Offering, only to shelve its plans and join forces with Symantec in a $US4.6 billion acquisition on June 12.
As reported by ARN, the move is designed to bolster the Symantec's cyber security portfolio, and fill its vacant CEO slot, with Australian-born Greg Clark - CEO of Blue Coat - taking control of the new-look vendor.
But while the mechanics of the deal are outlined clearly for the industry to digest, its impact on the market as a whole remains unclear.
Although Symantec holds the second-largest share of the enterprise security market in revenue, its revenue and customer growth rates have been decelerating at an alarming rate, putting the vendor at risk of dropping to the No. 4 position by 2020, according to TBR's Enterprise Security Market Forecast, 2015-2020.
"Yet in a decisive and bold move, Symantec potentially reverses its outlook with the announcement that it intends to acquire security vendor Blue Coat Systems," Technology Business Research Analyst, Jane Wright, said.
Although Symantec stumbled with its last significant acquisition of Veritas, Wright believes Symantec's acquisition of Blue Coat will prove much more successful.
"The two companies' complementary portfolios and diverse partner ecosystems will create revenue and margin growth for Symantec and a more relevant and comprehensive portfolio for customers," Wright said.

After the acquisition is completed next quarter, the analyst firm claims Symantec will surpass the market share leader, IBM, while putting new competitive pressures on another market titan, Check Point.
"IBM has been the enterprise security market leader for the past three years, but Symantec's acquisition of Blue Coat will disrupt this position and compel IBM to turn its attention to endpoint security," Technology Business Research Analyst, Jane Wright, said.
Until now, Wright said IBM has focused its resources on larger security information and event management, identity and access management, and security analytics opportunities.
Read more Why is Symantec buying Blue Coat?
Going forward however, Wright believes IBM will consider acquiring an endpoint security vendor such as CounterTack or SentinelOne to lessen Symantec's growth under Blue Coat leadership.
IBM aside however, Check Point Software Technologies will also be impacted by Symantec's move.
As explained by Wright, the 23-year-old security vendor has achieved "moderate, consistent" high-single-digit revenue growth on a broad portfolio including network security appliances, endpoint and mobile anti-malware blades, and web gateways, holding the No. 4 share position in enterprise security revenue.
"But Check Point has not adapted its portfolio or delivery models as quickly as some competitors, such as Blue Coat, to address growing customer demand to protect cloud-based workloads with cloud-based services," Wright added.
Meanwhile, Cisco, the No. 3 share holder in the enterprise security market according to TBR's estimates, will be impacted less by Symantec's acquisition of Blue Coat, as neither Symantec nor Blue Coat are focused on the network security segment where Cisco earns most of its security revenue.
"Many of Symantec's recent declines were due to the challenges of shifting its traditional security portfolio and delivery model to address customers' changing security requirements," Wright added.
"With the acquisition of Blue Coat, Symantec's portfolio will expand to address more of customers' most pressing security concerns, such as SaaS usage monitoring and security analytics.

Beryl Drusilla de Zoete, también conocida como Beryl de Sélincourt (Londres, 1879 – 4 de marzo de 1962) fue una bailarina de ballet inglesa, orientalista, crítica e investigadora de danza. También es conocida como traductora de Italo Svevo y Alberto Moravia.

Biografía
Nacida en Londres, vivió allí la mayor parte de su vida. Estudió a Somerville College de la Universidad de Oxford. En 1902 se casó con Basil de Sélincourt, aunque el matrimonio duró solo unos pocos años.  Publicó poemas en la revista modernista The Open Window. Inició una relación de por vida con el orientalista y traductor Arthur Waley, a quien conoció en 1918 pero con quien nunca se casó. Según observadores como Gerald Brenan, su relación con Arthur Waley era indeterminada. Fue una gran viajera, especialmente por  Bali y el sur de Asia.

En el campo de la danza, enseñó eurítmica, investigó la danza india y las tradiciones teatrales, y colaboró con Walter Spies en Danza y drama en Bali (1937), que sigue siendo una referencia estándar para la danza tradicional balinesa y las formas teatrales. Estudió danza, al menos en parte con Emile Jaques-Dalcroze en 1913 y 1915, y posteriormente enseñó danza hasta algún momento en la década de 1920. Escribió sobre danza en varias ocasiones para The Daily Telegraph, New Statesman y Nation and Ballet (editado por Richard Buckle ). Publicó libros sobre danza en Bali (1938), India (1953) y Sri Lanka (1957).

Según Harold Acton, de Zoete tenía la tendencia a abusar de hospitalidad de sus amigos: cuando Paola Olivetti, un poco irritada, se fue de una de sus villas, Beryl se quedó, y no se fue hasta que el cocinero le dijo que se iba de vacaciones.

The Proofing Drawer
Reflections on life from a man trying to learn
Plus ça change....plus c'est différent
Companion piece to the previous entry.
Looking back at myself in 1999 versus me today...in many ways I have not changed. Most of my core values remain intact; in fact, most of them have strengthened over time.
But many things have changed.
Let's start with the outermost, most irrelevant layer of me. I haven't physically aged much...look at a picture of me from twenty years ago and I'm instantly identifiable. The glasses don't crush my nose anymore (they've also almost tripled in price), and I have made a conscious decision to lose most of the hair on my head and keep it lost. Three reasons for that last:
1) Comfort, especially in summer;
2) Appearance. My hair grows in remarkably thick and curl-tangly on the back of my head, and in the manner of most forty-mumble males of my species, it absolutely refuses to grow in a widening patch on the top of my head. Unattended to, that makes me look like a slice of prime grade-A doofus.
3) Laziness. Let's face it, getting out of the shower with a dry head is a lovely thing.
I've got dozens of scars I didn't have in 1999 and I can't point to a single one of them and tell you how I got it. Random cuts and scrapes come standard in a stock boy's career. I've also got two tattoos and plan to eventually get at least two more. That's not something I could have predicted before I met Eva, because tattoos were obviously for criminals and "low" people. So spake my mother (who softened her stance so much over time that she herself got inked, eventually).
This blog is going to be a paean to Eva, and eventually to Kathy, because my partners have done a great deal either changing me for the better, or, more often, simply sitting back and allowing me to change myself.
Part of my first date with Eva involved a trip to Value Village. I still remember the almost overwhelming fear I had opening that door, the fear that I would contract a dread disease. Maybe more than one. I mean, I knew that all the clothes in there came from dead people. I don't know where this piece of information came from (probably Mom again), but I believed it with my whole heart. I figured they washed the stuff, but who knows what germs persisted?
I could guard against that by not touching anything. My mom had drilled that into me the few times she'd allow us to be seen at a flea market: DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING. But that wouldn't protect me from the disease I'd already caught just by being in this parking lot, the very same disease my mom was terrified of in the flea market: STAGE TWO POVERTY.
Stage one poverty is regrettably widespread. It's called BEING POOR. It's hard to cure, but it can be treated. The course of treatment mostly involves staying away from places like Value Village, flea markets, and "the bad side of town" generally. That way you could at least hope to avoid a progression into stage two.
Stage two poverty was ever so much worse, according to my mother: LOOKING POOR. That was fatal: you'd die of shame.
There were certain actions you could take to avoid Stage Two, besides staying away from the cesspools where it festered: don't be seen eating bread crusts was one I particularly recall. But sometimes the poverty would advance to stage two despite your best efforts and you'd find yourself moving from a semi-detached house--itself iffy enough, since "detached house with white picket fence" is the ideal--to a, horror of horrors, TOWNHOUSE.
Are you starting to get an idea of the kind of acute snobbishness that underlaid my lower middle class/upper working class upbringing? I could feel the poverty-boils just itching to break out all over me as I started to walk into Value Village. There were green and throbbing juicily and everyone was going to SEE THEM and point at me and laugh and snicker and look pitying.
I tried my best to cloak this, but of course Eva saw through it. And did something for the first time that I would come to realize she's expert at: flipping the script.
Yes, poor people shop in here, she said. So do very rich people.
I goggled: this was unpossible according to my brain as it was then wired.
Rich people get rich and stay rich by not spending money it isn't necessary to spend, she said, and we walked out with $44 of stuff that would have cost easily five times that elsewhere. Mental geography shifted.
She also torpedoed my illusion that all the clothing came off dead people just by motioning her arms over the racks and racks of clothing and asking me just how many dead people do you think there are, anyway?
I still don't like the smell in there, to be honest. And there are still things I'd rather buy new -- not out of concerns of stage two poverty, but just so that I know the history of the item I'm buying. But there are many things I'll gladly thrift for.
That script-flipping, that reframing, I've seen Eva do countless times, and every time she does it she opens up a world of unconsidered perspectives to me. It still happens today. She can defend any side of any issue either passionately or dispassionately, so much so that it can be utterly impossible to discern what she believes herself. Rare, rare talent that is. I'd love to say she's gifted me with it. She hasn't; but she certainly has taught me that there are many sides to many issues and 'my' side isn't the only valid one.
These teachings have been invaluable to me. They're endlessly versatile because they help me think around corners, reduce drama, and center conversations and people so much better than I otherwise could. Certainly better than I did before my wife came into my life.
Eva was the first person in my life to make me feel safe and loved just as I am. That is to say, she was the first partner of mine who loved me unconditionally. That has been tremendously liberating and securing at once. The ability to live authentic to my true self is the best gift of the many she has given me. The walking mass of nervous tics she first met gradually subsided. I wouldn't say I came to feel confident, but I did come to feel comfortable, and that, believe me, is a minor miracle.
Eva's elements are water and earth. Water because she is deep, with many currents not readily apparent from a surface view; also because she is nourishing, endlessly patient and incredibly powerful. She has an affinity for water...looking at it and especially swimming in it.
Some came to conquer
Some came to understand
Some came to live their lives as best they can
Me, I looked up at the stars to find my way
But I was young and I got them mixed up
And so forgot my name
As I tried to remember you were standing next to me
While others came seeking power
You, you had come to set them free
-- Johnny Clegg and Savuka - "Rolling Ocean"
Earth because...well, she even calls herself an earth mother. She's the most grounded person I have ever met. That is all the more amazing when you consider her anxiety--which, come to think of it, is her water-self turning against her earth-self and eroding stability out from underneath her. That's when Mark and I step in, supporting her and carrying her to solid ground again.
But somehow, even when anxious, she grounds everything and everyone around her. Especially me.
That grounding has worked wonders in my life. It has allowed me to "be here, now"...which is not something I was any good at before Eva. I used to escape my present at every opportunity, usually into an idealized past. But Eva is a present that keeps on giving. I love her so much for who she is and who I am with her.
And Eva's presence in my life made me reconsider polyamory.
If you look back at selected blogs in the early history of the Breadbin, you'll see I referred to polyamory as "personal communism" more than once. Lovely on paper, but it turns ugly in practice. I'd made this determination in the wake of exactly one polyamorous relationship gone bad, and its going bad was entirely my fault. It turns out I had only to meet the right person: a woman with an oversized heart and a vision of love that matched, in some ways exceeded, my own. We talked about opening our relationship early on, certainly well before we married. It was put on the back burner as we built the marriage, brought up at infrequent intervals with zero pressure on either of us.
It was always my intent that Eva go first, if and when she was ready. Bariatric surgery gave her a huge confidence boost and the second man she dated was Mark. The second woman I dated was Kathy.
Which brings me to what Kathy has effected in my life.
Kathy's elements, perhaps predictably, are air and fire. Air because she is as invigorating and refreshing, with an easy, breezy smile, and because she provides lift for the pair of wings I sprouted upon meeting her. Fire because she is passionate, intense and she will burn you when she's out of control. She has an affinity for fire...everything from campfires to volcanoes. When her air feeds her fire...watch out. That's when I use a combination of my own water and earth, never to douse her flame, but to contain it and redirect it if I can.
It's as hard to articulate as it is to understate the effect of Kathy on me. I feel lighter. as if I can fly. I feel energized. Her unpredictable fiery nature is exhilarating to me, and she's given me a flame of my own. It manifests as assertiveness and confidence, both things that have been a struggle for me.
If these words sound like those of a man in love, guilty as charged. If they sound fleeting and ephemeral....you don't know me.
"Close your eyes
Give me your hand
Can't you feel my heart beating,
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Is this burning an eternal flame?"
--The Bangles
I love her so much for who she is and who I am with her.
A final thing that has changed radically since 1999 is my politics. Back then, I was a conservative, if not always Conservative, voter. Reading old blogs, again from early in this Breadbin's existence, I wince and sometimes outright cringe at some of what I said. Mostly, it came from a lack of empathy for people and situations I did not understand....which is again something that Eva in particular has provided in large quantities. I moved steadily more and more liberal as time went on, and have only recently realized that I'm in danger of moving so far left I can no longer see the right. That's dangerous, no matter what the issue: without fully understanding how someone sees the world, I can't find common ground with them. And in this day and age when nearly everyone has retreated into one thought-bunker or another, finding common ground is absolutely essential. Work to center myself is ongoing. Expect future blogs to, for instance, examine the mindset of my ideological opponents in search of ways to connect to them. I expect some pushback from people who think I'm deserting them for the Dark Side (I'm not)...and I'll deal with that if and when it arrives.
I wonder what I'll be like in the year 2037. Time will tell.

Subject: What Is the Date of the French Election?

What Is the Date of the French Election?
By Ashley Moore, Associate Editor, Money Morning • April 21, 2017
France has been in the news lately leading up to its elections. But what is the date of the French election?
Will a Stock Market Sell-Off Happen After the French Election?
Market panic could ensue as the far-left and the far-right battle for France.
Sunday (April 23) is when the French primaries take place. The top four candidates are François Fillon, Marine Le Pen, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, and Emmanueal Macron.
If one of those candidates does not win a majority (over 50%) of the votes, then the runoff election will take place on May 7.
Urgent: An incredibly rare gold anomaly is shaping up in the markets as we speak -- one that has occurred ONLY twice in the past 20 years. And it's about to happen again. Details here...
What to Expect from the French Election This Week
It is highly unlikely that one candidate will win an outright majority of the votes this weekend. The concern is that the two front-runners that represent the far-right and the far-left (Le Pen and Mélenchon, respectively) will make it to the next round of elections. All four of the candidates are currently within 4% of each other in the current polls, but Le Pen and Mélenchon were early favorites.
Even more concerning is that both of these candidates want France to exit the EU and return to the French franc.
If both candidates make it to the runoff elections, you can expect to see a large drop in world markets Monday, according to Money Morning Capital Wave Strategist Shah Gilani.
The reason for the sell-off would be concerns about the EU being able to continue. Britain is already negotiating an exit, and Greece may have no choice but to leave if it can't get its finances in order. A French exit would potentially mean three of the 27 countries are leaving the EU within a year or two of each other. This is potentially the start of a mass exit from the EU.
While this will cause a lot of volatility in the global markets, Money Morning readers have no need to panic. In fact, we've found the perfect way to profit from the ongoing instability in Europe...
Don't Miss: A perfect storm is brewing... bringing with it the greatest wealth event in 20 years. And it involves a completely unique "gold" play. The cash windfall from this rare event is expected to reach a whopping $13 billion. Find out more.

Q: Can't Delete folder as it's in use. I have an issue with an auto update software that I am trying to make.  The application runs as a server application and checks via FTP for updates and downloads them if there is a newer version available.  This then unzips a folder called update in the programs root directory.  it then launches a file called update.bat that does any file copying etc that I may need to do for that update.  Once this is finished the update.bat launches the new server application.  Once the program goes to check for updates again it is suppose to delete the update directory that is in the root directory of the server application as well as the update.rar file that was downloaded from the update server.   All of this works perfectly except the folder is being used and will not delete.  I have read all kinds of things about releasing the handle and changing the current directory etc.. but just can't seem to get it to work. I would appreciate someone helping me out here.  Here is the code for this update.
        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (string s in Directory.GetDirectories("C:/my update dir"))
        {

            if (s.Contains("Instance"))
            {

                var _instance = Regex.Match(s, @"\d+");

                Process p = new Process();
                ProcessStartInfo pinfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
                pinfo.FileName = "cmd.exe";
                pinfo.WorkingDirectory = "C:/mySQL/bin";
                pinfo.Arguments = "/C mysql.exe -u** -p** dbnameHere" + _instance.ToString() +
                    " < \"C:/my update dir/update/update.sql\"";
                p.StartInfo = pinfo;
                p.Start();
                p.WaitForExit();
                p.Close();
                p.Dispose();
                Directory.SetCurrentDirectory("C:/");
            }
        }

        Directory.SetCurrentDirectory("C:/");
        this.Dispose();
        Application.Exit();
    }

A: I'm going to guess that your problem is here:

Once this is finished the update.bat launches the new server
  application.

Windows is going to "lock" the directories all the way down to the .BAT file. So if the .BAT runs a server process from that directory, that process is going to inherit the CWD and file descriptors of the calling process.
It's not clear from your code that this is what's happening, but you may also want to try changing the CWD prior to spawning the process.

CHARLES 0. CARLSON
SURNAMES: JOHNSON, HOLMGREN, ENGSTROM,
The owner and proprietor of the plumbing establishment at 318 High Street, Palo Alto, Charles 0. Carlson is a man of real mechanical ability. He comes honestly by his genius, his father and grandfather having been expert machinists, mechanics and inventors of Sweden. He was born in Sweden, April 21, 1882, and his father, C. J. Carlson, is still living, but his mother, whose maiden name was Charlotte Johnson, has passed away
Charles grew up in Sweden and was educated in the excellent public schools of that country and was brought up in the Lutheran faith. There were six children in his family, of whom he is the fourth, viz., Gusta, died when twenty years of age; Frank, A., is engaged in the real estate business in Minneapolis, Minn.; Atilia, is the wife of Gust Holmgren, of Duluth, Minn.; Charles Oscar, of this review, was christened Karl Oscar, but changed to Charles Oscar at the time of his application for citizenship at Duluth, Minn., and so recorded upon being admitted to full citizenship at San Jose by Judge Welch. The two youngest were twins: Gerda, at home in Sweden, and William N., who died when six months old. When Charles was twenty years old he came to America.
Having learned the blacksmith's business at his father's forge he had little trouble in securing employment in a shop at Duluth, Minn., where his ability was soon recognized, and the local telephone company offered him an excellent position as foreman of their construction department. He came to Palo Alto in 1904 and took up the plumbing trade, having previously been engaged in this trade in Minneapolis, Minn.
Mr. Carlson's marriage occurred in Palo Alto and united him with Miss Helen Engstrom, a neighbor's daughter and a childhood friend of our subject from his old home, Lidkoping, Sweden. They are the parents of three children, Esther, Agnes and Carl 0.
Mr. Carlson was associated with James E. Naldret for several years until the partnership was dissolved. In 1917 Mr. Carlson established his own business and is meeting with well-merited success, and is now counted among the best plumbers and business men of Palo Alto. He is a prominent member of the Master Plumbers of Palo Alto and Mountain View, also a member in good standing of the State and National Associations of Master Plumbers. He stands well in the Odd Fellows and Woodmen circles of Palo Alto, is a member of the Swedish Lutheran Church of that city, and in his political views he is a stalwart Republican.
