Florence unpopular kafe : A place where the combination of magic, enthralling refreshments, and glowing hospitality, all driven by the profoundest desire to enchant and delight, can trigger a genuinely florentine experience. A place where you can drink incredible cocktails and, if you are creative enough, make your own.
Kawaii is the italian reinterpretation of an izakaya, the typical japanese sake bar where one can consume food and drinks with friends or alone, at lunchtime or after work. Kawaii is a bar where it is possible to consume sake by the glass or by the bottle, with particular attention devoted to describing the characteristics of the beverages. The bar has about thirty types of sake which can be tasted in combination with a dish or alone.
The ultimate location in Florence to meet for a cocktail or a yoga class surrounded by the most impeccable views of the Arno, Brunelleschi's Dome, San Miniato, Palazzo Vecchio and Forte Belvedere. See and be seen at the magnificent "La Terrazza" Bar in Florence, a cocktail bar at the top floor of the medieval Consorti tower of the fashionable Hotel Continentale.
The Caffè Concerto Paszkowski, which features an elegant historical dining room and a large outdoor terrace with sofa chairs and a panoramic view of Piazza della Repubblica, is certainly the ideal place to enjoy cocktails and drinks. Courtesy, professionalism, and great dedication are just a few of the qualities of professional bar servers and bartenders who will be pleased to help you choose from a wide and extensive selection of cocktails. They also offer a delicious and delightful array of appetizers to accompany your drinks.
Back to the 1930s: period furnishings and bar staff mixing Prohibition-era cocktails. A secret Speakeasy, where you'll find a great attention to details to create a step back in time with 1930's music, light retro furniture and lots of candle. The drinks here are excellent, made with passion and..a bit of mistery.
The glass-plated sixth-floor SE·STO on Arno, like a trasparent jewellery box, affords breath-taking views as far as the horizon on Florence, its roofs, churches, bell towers, Ponte Vecchio and the picturesque Tuscan hills as a precious frame.
The outside of the restaurant is equipped with two large terraces one dedicated to the restaurant and one to the bar. This cocktail bar provides a unique 360-degree over Florence, embracing the whole city, a cradle of the Renaissance.

Home Technology We all need a Steve Jobs
Alex Grech October 6, 2011 1 Comment
We all need a Steve Jobs
We knew it was coming. And yet, in the same way we all mentally pretend that we will be spared from our inevitable passing, it was still a shock, as the news filtered in via that old and resilient of media, the radio and the BBC World Service. I was driving my son to school, absent-mindedly took a wrong turning, and the nine year-old tapped me on the shoulder with that wise guy attitude that you only have when you are nine. Or when you are Steve Jobs.
Jobs changed our relationship with technology. He took it out of the domain of the geeks and specialists and made it an indispensable tool for our lives. Jobs will forever be associated with an 'era' and social change. From the way we interact with others via screens, to the way we readily use visuals, theatre and story-telling when we have to stand up and present to others – and in a short time, find a way of connecting, sharing and inspiring.
Just in case you are one of a handful of people who has never seen the Jobs Stanford address in 2005 – watch the clip below. And perhaps, the other seminal clip, when Jobs came back to reclaim the company he had built and this round up from the BBC Click team.
Jobs will will continue to inspire generations of misfits, trouble-makers, creatives, frustrated blue-collar workers, parents and dreamers.
Ema says
"that wise guy attitude that you only have when you are nine. Or when you are Steve Jobs."
We should be able to keep that attitude. Or at least to teach our sons to keep it through their lives.

CUP: Ray Black, Jr. wins tight last-place battle in Chicagoland's third-straight Cup race without a single DNF
PHOTO: @RickWareRacing
Ray Black, Jr. picked up the 1st last-place finish of his Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series career in Sunday's Tales of the Turtles 400 at the Chicagoland Speedway when his #51 ScubaLife Chevrolet finished under power, 16 laps down, after 251 of 267 laps. The finish came in Black's series debut.
Black, who earned his first XFINITY last-place finish at Talladega in May, has since made eight more starts in NASCAR's second-tier division with a new career-best finish of 12th at Daytona in July. The Commercial Diving Academy, which sponsored Black in the past, tapping into the driver's passion for scuba diving in his native Florida, has also returned as the team's sponsor, this time through the school's underwater welding program. While Chicagoland would see Spencer Boyd drive in place of Black in SS's #07 Chevrolet for a second-straight XFINITY race, Black soon found another opportunity for the weekend – the chance to make his Cup Series debut.
For Sunday's race, Black reunited with team owner Rick Ware, who gave Black his first XFINITY Series start at Texas in 2015. The Ware team announced the partnership last Friday as an eleventh-hour entry, thus bringing the field from 39 cars on Monday to a full field by the opening practice. The XFINITY Series driver's Cup car would be black with the familiar ScubaLife branding from many of his Bobby Dotter-prepared cars, complete with blue waves on both doors. Black would drive the car at Chicagoland, then rejoin the team again at Texas in November.
Black was slowest in Friday's opening practice, his best of 18 laps a mere 165.654mph, nearly a second off the pace of second-slowest Timmy Hill and more than three seconds off the pace of session leader Kyle Busch. He again anchored Happy Hour on Saturday, slipping to 165.315mph, four-tenths off the next-fastest Jeffrey Earnhardt and just under three seconds off Martin Truex, Jr.'s leading time. His best lap ended up coming in qualifying – 170.218mph. Though eight-tenths off the next-slowest car of Timmy Hill and just under three seconds off Kyle Busch's pole lap, Black would start his first race 39th in the field of 40.
Starting last on Sunday was Brett Moffitt, who returned to the Cup Series for the first time since his 32nd-place run last month at Michigan. Moffitt rejoined BK Racing, which didn't have drivers listed for either of its cars in the preliminary entry list, alongside Corey LaJoie in the #23. Moffitt didn't complete a lap in qualifying, so his #83 JAS Expedited Trucking Toyota started shotgun on the field. He was joined at the rear by his teammate LaJoie, who was set to roll off 33rd but whose crew had made unapproved adjustments.
The race unfolded much like Michigan in June with a tight last-place battle among several tail-end cars. Black had taken the last spot by Lap 10, and was soon in danger of losing a lap to the leaders. The first driver to join him at the rear was playoff contender Ricky Stenhouse, Jr., whose #17 Fastenal Ford clipped the Turn 2 wall early, then was forced to make a pit stop for tire issues around Lap 33. Stenhouse then was assessed a commitment cone violation for his sharp angle entering pit road, and returned to the race two laps down.
Green-flag pit stops followed soon after Stenhouse's stop, and last place then fell to Gray Gaulding. Gaulding, back with Premium Motorsports for the first time since the Bristol night race, drove Reed Sorenson's "throwback" car from Darlington, the Bud Moore-styled numbers changed from #15 to #55. The car also carried a large hood logo recognizing the U.S. First Responders Association. By Lap 62, Black re-took last from Gaulding, and he was six laps behind the leaders near the end of Stage 1. On Lap 123, during Stage 2, Black was still last, and had lost another two laps for a total of eight.
By Lap 140, all 40 drivers were still on the track, and the teams at the back of the field remained evenly matched. On this particular circuit, Black was eight laps behind, one lap behind the next five drivers: 38th-place Gaulding, 37th-place Timmy Hill in Carl Long's #66 U.S. Chrome Chevrolet, 36th-place Cole Whitt in TriStar Motorsports' unsponsored #72 Chevrolet, and 35th-place Corey LaJoie. Not long after, it appeared that Black made an extended stop on pit road or in the garage, as he jumped from eight laps behind to eleven, gapping the group behind him. From there until the finish of the race, Black would maintain this three-lap advantage, preventing another change for last place. He ultimately edged both Hill and Gaulding by those three circuits. Rounding out the Bottom Five were Brett Moffitt, one lap ahead of Gaulding, and LaJoie, another circuit ahead of Moffitt.
*This marked the incredible third consecutive year that the entire starting field for the Cup Series race at Chicagoland finished under power. In 2015, last-placer Austin Dillon completed 198 of 267 laps, followed by 2016's run by Joey Gase, where he turned 254 of 270.
*Black is also the second driver to finish last in his Cup debut this year, joining Cody Ware at Atlanta. Ware also drove the #51 Chevrolet that day, which is owned by his father.

What do you do when water runs out?
Hope still springs in Australia's worst areas of drought
Copy link Pray about This
Rebecca Abbott | July 24th, 2019 05:02 PM	| Add a Comment
From his riverside farm 45 kilometres south of Narromine in central-west New South Wales, 70-plus farmer Ray Haigh reflects on the intensity of the drought. He can't remember one as bad; neither can the old bloke he was chatting to in the nearby town of Trangie.
"He said he had seen conditions like this, but not over such a big area and not for as long," Haigh tells Eternity.
"We're into our third year now … We had a little bit of rain at the end of March – 40 millilitres on the river. We were able to sow a bit of crop – which nearly died a couple of times because we didn't have rain – but that was the first time I'd moved our sowing rig in three years … We're all spending huge amounts on feed [for animals]."
"I was starting to detect a feeling of despair." – Ray Haigh
Narromine is one of ten towns recently predicted to run out of water in the next six to 12 months.
Despite this, Haigh considers himself lucky. He has some feed for his stock, after unearthing grain that he buried underground many years ago to use in hard times. And on his part of the river, he has access to bore water.
"Go to the other end of the Narromine Shire and they can't get bore water," he says.
When Haigh made pastoral visits – along with other members of the church he attends – to people in this area two months ago, they were almost out of water. "I was starting to detect a feeling of despair," Haigh says about the local community.
Further upstream in the town of Warren, where his daughter lives, not only is there no access to bore water but they are expecting the river to stop flowing by Spring. This means they no longer will be able to pump water out of the river for stock and domestic use.
Haigh points out there are towns even worse off. He notes other "pretty desperate" towns in NSW's central west where water is being trucked in, such as Condobolin and Coonabarabran. More than 200 kilometres away, Bathurst is facing "extreme" water restrictions.
The Narromine area is currently on level three restrictions, which are still high and likely to tighten. Haigh notes that for those without bore water, there is barely enough water to sustain a small garden.
Yet, with typical country optimism, he highlights some good news: the area of Australia affected by drought is shrinking.
"At one stage you could say from central Queensland right across Australia all the way down was fully covered by drought. But we're starting to see areas now that are getting good rain – so the southern part of western Australia in their cropping area, south Australia had some good rain, Victoria and up to Griffith. We're nowhere near out of the woods, but … we're starting to see some easing in some of the shortages of feed."
"Rain is the answer to everything and God will provide that when we need it." – Ray Haigh
The main reason why Haigh is so optimistic is his Christian faith. He has also noticed the difference a belief in God makes on his pastoral visits, as a member of Narromine and Trangie Anglican Church.
"Those who have a good Christian faith know that everything is moving along and the plans are in hand," he says.
For those who don't know God, his main concern is the sense of isolation that despair can bring.
"When we go visiting, we rock up and say we've got two questions we want to ask you: the first one is 'Are you OK?' and then we move on to what they think about Jesus."
The main questions Haigh and other pastoral carers often face – where is God in all of this and why doesn't he make it rain – has opened up opportunities for some good conversations. While Haigh readily admits he finds these hard to answer, he is praying people will come to trust in God through this drought. And he's confident that rain is on its way.
"Rain is the answer to everything and God will provide that when we need it," he says.
"Hope is such an important thing at a time like this." – Phil Howes
Minister of Narromine and Trangie Anglican Church Phil Howes is also embracing drought-borne opportunities to support locals who are "doing it tough". He points out that these include local businesses, not just farmers.
"The long-time farmers are, of course, doing it tough, but so are people who are involved in selling equipment to farmers or people who prepare and process feed, train drivers, shearers, hairdressers. So it's not just the farmers, it's more the knock-on effect which is more significant," says Howes.
In light of this, when providing drought relief to the community, his church has focused on supporting local businesses. With financial support from an Anglican church in Sydney, they were able to give community members gift vouchers for local businesses, such as the hairdresser, pharmacy, and petrol station.
Just like the positivity of his congregation member Haigh, Howes has seen the drought magnify a similar resilience among many others in the local community.
"I've never met people who are so hardworking or resilient or make a little go a long way. They are very resourceful, and they show a lot of care and concern for each other," he says.
According to Howes, the flipside is such self-reliance can make people reluctant to turn to God.
"My hope is that people will understand that we're not God and no matter how clever and hardworking we are, we still need God … We can't be independent of God in either rain or salvation. My prayer is that through the drought, people will turn to God and recognise their need for him."
While Haigh says conditions "are expected to get worse before it gets better", he is confident that God will come through: "When it does rain … we can all celebrate God's goodness to us again. Hope is such an important thing at a time like this."
Phil Howes and Narromine and Trangie Anglican Church are inviting churches in central-west NSW and beyond to take part in a communal prayer session on Monday, September 2. On this day, they are asking for "one church in each city, town and village to pray for God to mercifully end the drought." For more information, get in touch with Phil at [email protected] or 0411 281 915.

Guardian Membership strategy
Posted on March 28, 2014 by The Escher Cycle
The Guardian used to be the seventh biggest newspaper in the UK.
Today it has become the third most read newspaper website in the world.
It has achieved this remarkable transformation by doing something that is complete anathema to the old paradigms for "how to run a successful newspaper": it gives its content away for free.
But if we apply the thinking of The Escher Cycle, we can easily understand why this makes sense.
Deputy chief executive of Guardian News & Media, David Pemsel, recently gave a short speech outlining the organisation's strategy. It contains a number of elements that resonate with The Escher Cycle.
The simplest of these is shown in the screenshot on the right. It is the 'Customer Chain'.
Guardian News & Media now thinks about their readers in terms of 'membership'.
Their strategy is to "Grow, Deepen, and Retain" that membership.
In David Pemsel's own words, managing Membership "is all about how do we take the huge global reach, translate that into data [about who each reader is, what they are interested in], and how we then create communities of interest where we can then either make more money or start to create deeper relationships with our readers." (This role will be headed by David Magliano, as MD for membership strategies.)
In Escher Cycle terms this is a classic 'Customer Chain'.
Customers/Members move from not knowing about the paper, to becoming aware, liking, and trialling the newspaper's content ('fickle' customers). As the relationship deepens, so the Guardian finds it useful to think in terms of two classes of 'Loyal' customers: 'members' and 'advocates'.
Here is how the chain works for The Guardian:
First, the free content brings the company what it refers to as 'Reach'. The result for the Guardian is that the maximum number of readers get to try out the newspaper, get to know its style, and decide whether they like it.
Accessibility on any device lets readers share the stories they like, which brings what the Guardian refers to as 'Referral', which again increases reach (at low marginal cost to the Guardian).
As the members come to Know and Like the paper they start to sign in, and become what The Escher Cycle calls 'fickle' customers.
The Guardian learns more about them and guides them to become Loyal Members, either with existing content, or by developing new content specifically for them.
For the deeply loyal readership, the company creates 'Communities of Interest', comprised of people who are not so much 'readers' of the paper, but rather 'Members' of the global community who share the same kind of thinking as the newspaper.
The truly loyal customers become 'advocates' of the paper — an unpaid salesforce, if you like, but also the core 'membership' that the Guardian serves.
The deep role of management at Guardian News & Media is now to 'curate' that membership — but that's another story.
Unaware, Aware, Know and Like, Fickle Customer, Loyal Customer (stage 1 and 2) — these are the links along The Customer Chain that are defined by The Escher Cycle (chapter 2).
And here is how they map on to the Guardian's own slide of that chain:

IBM: Leadership as 'guided serendipity'
As the pace of business life accelerates, so we expect managers to shift from focusing on control (which becomes impossible) to facilitation: to switch from focusing on outcomes to focusing on the processes that create those outcomes.
We'd expect those shifts to appear first in the parts of the business that face directly on to the outside world, namely design, marketing, and sales.
This short article by Adam Cutler, design studio director at IBM, describes the steps he is taking to revitalise that company's design approach.
He talks about optimising "for possibilities rather than outcomes."
He designs a circulatory flow "to create a self-sustaining culture of curiosity and collaboration that feeds itself by mobilising thoughts, ideas and possibilities… The recursive effect through the studio helps spread ideas that, in turn, influence the quality of everyone's work."
The Escher Cycle is all about focusing on the fundamental processes that create the key outcomes for any business. The process Adam describes is very much in line with the AUDIO cycle, described in Chapter 6.

The pre-conference tramping trip to the West Coast of New Zealand proved to be great preparation for some delegates.
Red zone tour gives conference delegates a first hand look at the challenges and opportunities for Christchurch after the 2010/2011 quakes.
The 2016 HealthPathways Conference Dinner was a chance for delegates to network and let their hair down halfway through the three-day event.
When it comes to patient information there's myriad choices for clinical editors to choose from. But which sources are the best? and what's the best way to present the information?
It's better to aim for "better" rather than perfection - this is the practical but inspirational message delivered by Chief Implementation Advisor Andy Froggatt on the morning of the last day of the 2016 HealthPathways Conference.
HealthPathways is just one of many platforms for enabling whole of system change in Canterbury, as delegates learned on their site visits to Pegasus Health.
A high trust, low bureaucracy collaborative system that sees primary care providers as true partners of their hospital colleagues is key for improving care and meeting the growing pressures placed on health systems.
A one system approach that breaks down the silos preventing collaboration needs a space for brainstorming and experimenting with new processes, and educating staff from every field. And that place is the CDHB Design Lab.
Delegates were today shown how business intelligence tools inform operational decision making with a tour of Christchurch Hospital's Operations Centre, the new cutting edge facility which could claim to be the nerve centre for Canterbury's health system.
There was something for everyone during the first workshops on day one of the 2016 HealthPathways Conference.
Leaders from across the HealthPathways Community talked about the conference's theme in a real world context during the post-keynote panel discussion, with the topic of engagement coming to the fore.
The 2016 HealthPathways Conference opened with a traditional Maori welcome and keynote addresses that demonstrate the strong partnership between primary and secondary care that's the foundation of the whole of system change in Canterbury.
The latest figures released by the Canterbury District Health Board's patient information site shows it's being embraced by the public.
Fewer frail older patients in Canterbury are staying in hospital more than 10 days thanks to the development of the Canterbury District Health Board's (CDHB) Frail Older Person's Pathway.
On Monday, we're releasing a couple of usability improvements to Dot and HealthPathways websites.

United States Grand Prix race review as reported by Formula1.com.
"****** finally!" Raikkonen exclaimed in celebration.
Behind him, Verstappen put his qualifying woes behind him as he crossed the line 1.2s back to cap a superb drive through the field from 18th on the grid, while Hamilton – who started from pole and led during the middle phase of the race – was forced to settle for third after needing to make one more pit stop than his rivals.
Behind the frantic action up front, it was a great day for Renault as they finished sixth and seventh with Nico Hulkenberg and Carlos Sainz to strengthen their grip on fourth place in the constructors' standings ahead of Haas, whose home race ended with them claiming just two points for P9 with Kevin Magnussen.
Force India, meanwhile, took another step towards overhauling McLaren for P6 as Esteban Ocon finished a strong eighth and Sergio Perez 10th. However, Ocon was subsequently disqualified after his car was excluded for exceeding permitted fuel flow limits on the opening lap, elevating Toro Rosso's Brendon Hartley into the final point-scoring position.
Daniel Ricciardo "put his fist through wall" after US GP exit. That was pure frustration from the honey badger. Motorsport.com has the news story.
Red Bull Formula 1 team principal Christian Horner says Daniel Ricciardo put his fist through the wall of his room at Austin after retiring from the United States Grand Prix.
Ricciardo retired while running fourth in the race when his car shut down at the Turn 11 hairpin just eight laps into the race, while his teammate Max Verstappen finished second from 18th on the grid.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the race, Horner said Ricciardo took out his frustration in the paddock.
"It's a crying shame for Daniel, I feel so sorry for him," said Horner.
"He was driving a strong grand prix and would have been right there too. It's so frustrating for him.
Horner said Ricciardo knew the problems were not related to the team, but to Renault – whose works team he will switch to for next season.
"I'm sure he'll be having a word with his future employers about it – it's so frustrating to keep losing him from races at the moment," he added.
"He doesn't blame the team in any way, he knows we are doing everything we can, it's just one of those things.
"Hopefully we've got enough components in our [engine] pool for him not to take a penalty [next weekend in Mexico].
"I think both guys can be strong in Mexico. We won it well last year, a really dominant win for us [with Verstappen].
"At that altitude the engines can't breathe and it brings it all closer together, and that gives us a chance.
Lewis Hamilton believes Mercedes "made it hard for ourselves" in the US GP. Motorsport.com has the details.
Mercedes Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton admits he and the team "made it hard for ourselves" in committing to an inferior United States Grand Prix strategy compared to his nearest rivals.
Hamilton started the Austin race on pole with the chance of clinching the 2018 drivers' title early, but lost out to Kimi Raikkonen at the start – and also dropped behind Max Verstappen, who like Raikkonen made a single stop to Hamilton's two.
The championship leader caught the pair at the end of the race on fresher tyres, but could not make any further progress as Verstappen held his ground.
Hamilton admitted after the race that his initial pitstop on lap 11 came as "a little bit of a surprise" as Mercedes tried to take advantage of a virtual safety car period.
"Once we've done the stop on 11, I knew I would be doing a two-stop," Hamilton said.
"It just made it so hard for ourselves – we came out, I had to catch Kimi, caught him and tyres were dead, and then he did his stop and was catching me with fresh tyres, and then I came out after the last stop and had the 12 seconds to catch up.
Hamilton said he wasn't "quite sure of all the reasoning" for the call, but reckoned the choice of the starting tyre was a major factor in the defeat.
The Briton had started on supersofts to Raikkonen's ultrasofts, and felt this allowed the Finn to get ahead and control the race.
"I think it already started from Q2, that tyre was the wrong tyre to start on.
"We already knew there was a big difference in start performance on these different tyres, yet we fell for something that we already knew was potentially not the way forward.
"And obviously I lost position to him [Raikkonen], and then wasn't able to keep up because he had clean air and a better tyre.
"It was definitely a lesson learned, I think, for us. Performance-wise wasn't our greatest weekend – but we've had some incredible weekends this year.
Hamilton's sole remaining title rival Sebastian Vettel spun after contact with Daniel Ricciardo on the opening lap, but recovered to fourth to keep his title hopes alive.
Asked by Motorsport.com whether he was surprised not to have wrapped up the title after Vettel's mishap, Hamilton said: "Not surprised, I finished third. I had to win the race today.
"Not really sure what happened in the race behind, but obviously he did a good job to come back.
"But as a team we clearly struggled – you could see Valtteri struggled to keep Seb behind even when Seb must've been quite far behind [after spinning].
Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen has finally won a Grand Prix and The Iceman commented that this "proved people wrong" after ending win drought. Motorsport.com has the news story.
United States Grand Prix winner Kimi Raikkonen believes he has "proved some people wrong" after claiming his first Formula 1 victory in five and a half years.
He jumped poleman Lewis Hamilton at the start of Sunday's grand prix and then withstood late pressure from Max Verstappen and the Mercedes driver to end his victory drought.
"It hasn't really been a big deal for me," he said "It's been a much bigger deal for other people.
"If it comes it comes, if it doesn't it doesn't change my life one bit. I'm happy because we are here purely to try to win. The biggest difference is how people look at you.
Raikkonen said he was also pleased for his team having had "a pretty rough few races".
Hamilton and Mercedes had won the previous four grands prix and six of the last seven races, with Ferrari only enjoying Sebastian Vettel's Belgian GP success during that run.
"For sure I didn't mean in that sense," he said. "I think people don't understand I'm actually very happy with where I'm going.
"For me, as a driver, I want different challenges. I want different things.
"I wasn't really at any point disappointed with the decision. The only thing I was interested in was to know what would happen.
Fernando Alonso says there are "more amateur" drivers in Formula 1 than in the World Endurance Championship after his crash with Lance Stroll in the United States Grand Prix.
Alonso was hit by Williams driver Stroll as they approached the esses on the opening lap, the contact causing heavy damage to the McLaren, which retired after returning to the pits.
Stroll was able to continue and was given a drive-through penalty for causing the crash.
Alonso, who was also involved in an incident with Stroll in Japan, hit out at the FIA for not doing enough to stop that kind of driving.
"I'm not upset. I'm disappointed because I'm nine days here in the US to do a race and I do 600 meters of the race and they push you off," said Alonso.
"That's the way it is, but it's more a problem for the FIA if they keep allowing this type of driving. I drive in another series with amateur drivers, theoretically, and there has never been a problem.
"There are more amateurs here than in other series," added the Spaniard, who races in the WEC with Toyota.
"Maybe when there's a big crash they will do something.
"Until then we'll try to have fun in other categories where we race against 34 cars, against amateur people, against 60-year-old men and nothing ever happens.
The two-time champion, who is retiring from F1 at the end of the year, believes the level of the drivers currently competing in Formula 1 is lower than it was in the past.
When asked if drivers in F1 where more aggressive than in WEC, he said: "No, the level is lower.
"I race in the WEC and they are very aggressive as well and we have three different categories there, some amateur drivers in the GTE-AM, but no one crashes into each other. There's another mentality.
"Sometimes you make a mistake or you try to take a risk at the start, or you can overshoot your braking point or make a mistake.
After the race, however, Alonso took to Twitter to dial back on the criticism after seeing replays of the incident.

Q: Scrolling a scrollbar with the TK GUI How can a TkScrollbar be scrolled with code?
Neither .scroll nor .autoscroll are recognised.
 test = TkScrollbar.new(root).pack('side'=>'right', 'fill'=>'y')
 test.scroll(1)
 test.autoscroll

Edit: Forgot the link to the doc: http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/tk/rdoc/classes/Tk/Scrollbar.html

A: I have no experience with ruby and tk, but with other tk bindings (python and tcl, to be precise), when you want to scroll something programmatically you don't move the scrollbar, you directly scroll whatever it is you want scrolled. The scrollbar will update itself to reflect the changes.
You scroll an object by using its xview and yview methods. I assume (but don't know for a fact) those are exposed in the ruby bindings.

Tupprall (Gallicrex cinerea) är en asiatisk fågel i familjen rallar inom ordningen tran- och rallfåglar.

Utseende
Tupprallen påminner om rörhönan (Gallinula chloropus) med hanens överlag gråsvarta dräkt med röd pannsköld och röd gulspetsad näbb. Den är dock något större (43 centimeter), har röda ben och ett rött horn som sticker upp som en förlängning av pannskölden. Vidare är ryggen fjälligt mönstrad.

Honan är mindre, endast 36 centimeter, är gulbrun och finbandad under, med mörkare brun ovansida där fjädrarna är gulbrunspetsade. Hanen utanför häckningstid liknar honan, men är genomgående mörkare. Ungfågeln är enhetligt och obandat rödbrun under och den mörkare ryggen har mer rödbrunt spetsade fjädrar.

Läte
Arten är ljudlig under häckningstid, med både rytmiskt dånande och mjukare, ihåliga serier samt vittljudande "tyokh" eller "kluck". Vintertid är den tystlåten.

Utbredning och systematik
Tupprallen placeras som enda art i släktet Gallicrex. Den förekommer i låglänta områden i södra och östra Asien samt i Filippinerna. Ursprunget till förekomsten i Palau är oklart. Arten har även påträffats vid fyra tillfällen i Oman.

Släktskap
Arten är trots den ytliga likheten ej nära släkt med rörhönsen i Gallinula. Istället står den allra närmast rallarna i släktet Amaurornis, där bland annat vattenhönan ingår.

Levnadssätt
Tupprallen förekommer i våtmarker med vass eller gräs, översvämmade betesmarker, risfält, bevattnade sockerplantage samt sävkantade kanaler, flodar, dammar och diken. Den simmar bra och kan korsa öppet vatten. Den för dock ett diskret leverne och är vanligtvis mest aktiv i skymning och gryning, eller under mulet och regnigt väder. Fågeln livnär sig huvudsakligen av frön, skott och ris, men också maskar, mollusker, vattenlevande insekter och gräshoppor.

Häckning
Arten häckar under monsunmånaderna från juni till september i Indien och Pakistan, huvudsakligen maj i Sri Lanka, maj till juli i Filippinerna och december på Sumatra. Den har förmodligen ett monogamt häckningsbeteende. Det stora konkava eller djupt skålformade boet byggs av säv, risblad eller gräs och placeras långt ner i vass eller på en grästuva. Däri lägger honan normalt två kullar med tre till sex ägg.

Status och hot
Arten har ett stort utbredningsområde och en stor population, men tros minska i antal till följd av habitatförlust, dock inte tillräckligt kraftigt för att den ska betraktas som hotad. Internationella naturvårdsunionen IUCN kategoriserar därför arten som livskraftig (LC).

Playing With Lives In Somalia
A Somali government policeman stands by a still burning car shortly after it exploded in Somalia's capital, Mogadishu, December 6, 2011.
Militants fighting to overthrow the Transitional Federal Government in Somalia have caused untold hardship in that troubled land.
Militants fighting to overthrow the Transitional Federal Government in Somalia have caused untold hardship in that troubled land. Military strikes, suicide bombings and the imposition of harsh rule in areas of the nation that they control have prolonged the turmoil that has gripped the country for more than two decades.
Drought and famine also are taking a tremendous toll, and here too the al-Shabaab rebels are making their presence felt. Amid a concerted international aid effort to provide needed food and medical assistance to the tens of thousands of Somalis affected by the crisis, al-Shabaab leaders recently imposed a ban on some United Nations and other aid groups. Militants seized and looted the offices of two groups operating in the southern Somali towns of Baidoa and Wajid.
Al-Shabaab's actions put at even greater risk the lives of four million Somalis who remain in need of emergency assistance and the 250,000 of those suffering from the ongoing famine. The attacks came as a United Nations study team determined that thanks to the work of international aid agencies famine conditions were beginning to ease in three hard-hit areas of Somalia. These expulsions may place these improvements at risk.
Al-Shabaab appears to see the relief groups as a threat, but the only purpose of these organizations is to save lives. The United States joins the international community in calling on all parties to respect international humanitarian principles and immediately allow these groups full and unhindered access to all those who need emergency aid in Somalia.

Q: Creating a new column to find the range of date I am working on a data frame which contains date.
I want to create a new column to classify the period of the date in a year. That means that I will assume as every 2 months as a range. But my starting date will be  August. THus,
Aug to Sep is 1,
Oct to Nov is 2,
Dec to Jan is 3,
Feb to Mar is 4 and
Apr to May is 5.

The sample date is as follow:
data =pd.DataFrame()
data ['Date'] = ['27-03-2019','08-10-2019','09-04-2019','09-08-2018']
data.period = pd.to_datetime(data['Date'])

The expected outcome as range in a new column would be as follow:

Can anyone advise me how to do that?
Thanks a lot
Zep.

A: import pandas as pd
df =pd.DataFrame()
df ['Date'] = ['27-03-2019','10-08-2019','04-09-2019','08-09-2018']
df.Date = pd.to_datetime(df['Date'])

month_range={8:1,9:1,10:2,11:2,12:3,1:3,2:4,3:4,4:5,5:5,6:6,7:6}

df['Range'] = [month_range.get(d) for d in df['Date'].dt.month]

Ouput:
    Date        Range
0   2019-03-27   4
1   2019-10-08   2
2   2019-04-09   5
3   2018-08-09   1

A: I try create dictionary with numpy.roll, numpy.repeat, numpy.arange and last use Series.map with Series.dt.month:
a = np.arange(1, 13)
b = np.roll(np.repeat(np.arange(1,7), 2), 7)
d = dict(zip(a, b))
print (d)
{1: 3, 2: 4, 3: 4, 4: 5, 5: 5, 6: 6, 7: 6, 8: 1, 9: 1, 10: 2, 11: 2, 12: 3}

df['Range'] = df['Date'].dt.month.map(d)
print (df)
        Date  Range
0 2019-03-27      4
1 2019-10-08      2
2 2019-04-09      5
3 2018-08-09      1


The Houston Rockets are winning, thanks to the outstanding play of James Harden, Eric Gordon, and Clint Capela. But, imagine what happens when they get a healthy Chris Paul back in the lineup. As good as the Rockets are, they could be better. But, in order to do so, it will have to start with a trade.
With the start of the season, there are major NBA trade rumors going on concerning a handful of players and teams. But, only one name has been mentioned almost daily. The Philadelphia 76ers have all but given up on Jahlil Okafor and while he's being mentioned with a few teams, one has stayed under-the-radar. The Houston Rockets.
The Rockets currently have Ryan Anderson as their starting power forward and while he has produced (11.8 points, 5.5 rebounds), he doesn't fit what the Rockets need. Looking over their roster, the Rockets are a perimeter team, however, in order for them to beat the Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs they must change their approach.
Their only true low post threat is Capela (13.3 points, 10.8 rebounds) and that could change with a trade for Jahlil Okafor.
While Okafor has played primarily at the center position for the Sixers, he's versatile enough to play alongside Capela as a power forward. One of the knocks on Okafor has been his rebounding and defense. But, his time with the Sixers, he was normally the focal point of an offense that didn't have a shooter like Harden, a facilitator like Paul or a rebounding force like Capela. What the Rockets will require him to do will be far different than that of the Sixers. And, that alone will grant him the success he so desperately craves.
For his career, Okafor (14.6 points, 4.5 rebounds) has been average at best. The Sixers were going through a process and in doing so, his minutes and production took a hit. With Joel Embiid now cemented as the future at the position and versatile Robert Covington playing power forward, Okafor is the odd man out. This is where the Rockets can save his career and boost their chances of winning an NBA championship this season.
The Warriors are good. We know this already, but they do have their flaws and Okafor will help the Rockets exploit that.
Anderson is a great perimeter threat, but he's not the physical player the playoffs call for. Okafor has 275 pounds that he can throw right into the upper-body of Draymond Green. Green is a great defender, but for some reason, teams tend to shy away from putting a big body forward on him. Anderson is a perimeter player who loves to hoist three-pointers if given the chance. A player like that makes Green's job that much easier on the defensive end.
If the Rockets want to beat the Warriors, they must make them work on both ends of the floor. Have any Rockets fans seen Okafor with the ball in his hands? Anderson doesn't have those type of skills to get to the basket. A player with Okafor's talents will only make Harden. Paul, Ariza, Tucker, and Gordon better on the wings.
With the Sixers possibly in search of just a second round pick, the Rockets have options in terms of trade pieces. If the goal is to shed cash then why not offer Anderson and his $19.5 million he's set to make this year and $20 million+ for the next two after? Okafor is still on the books for $4.9 million this season with a possible option of a cap friendly $6.3 million for next year. If the Rockets wish to use Anderson is a reserve role for the second unit offense then give the Sixers their lone second rounder for 2018. I mean, the Rockets are contenders now and their roster is set so that second round player will probably end up in the G-League anyway.
While teams like the Phonix Suns, Brooklyn Nets, and Chicago Bulls are all being mentioned as possible trade destinations, the Rockets could be the dark horse team to get Jahlil Okafor.

«Runaway» es la canción con la que se dio a conocer a Jon Bon Jovi en la radio (compuesta por Jon). La canción está interpretada por Jon Bon Jovi junto a la banda The All Star Review, ya que el vocalista la había grabado antes de formar la banda, pero está incluida en el primer álbum del grupo, titulado "Bon Jovi". En realidad se trata de una canción escrita en 1980 y uno de los tantos demos que Jon había grabado en el estudio en el que trabajaba como asistente en esos años, y que posteriormente se incluirían en el recopilatorio The Power Station Years.

El tema de la canción trata sobre una joven que tras huir de casa de sus padres se ve obligada a realizar actos ilícitos para ganarse la vida, denunciando de esa forma la difícil situación en la que vivían muchos jóvenes en esa época.

El vídeo
El videoclip de Runaway trata de una joven que escapa de su hogar y se rebela contra sus padres. Mientras esta historia se desarrolla, Bon Jovi realiza una actuación en una especie de edificación en ruinas. En dicha actuación destacan recursos como el fuego, las explosiones y el humo, los cuales fueron muy utilizados en los 80's. Además, durante todo el vídeo persiste el ambiente terrorífico y las escenas de rebeldía. La joven fue interpretada por Jennifer Gatti.

Utilización en películas y series

En Footloose (1984) Kevin Bacon baila la canción.
En la película Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009), hay una escena en la que un cantante interpreta esta canción en una fiesta dentro de un bar.
En una escena de la segunda temporada de la serie Stranger Things de Netflix (2018).
En una escena de la película Bumblebee (2018).

Canción
Runaway

On the street where you live girls talk about their social
lives
They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint, a touch of sable
in their eyes
All your life all you've asked when's your Daddy gonna talk to
you
But you were living in another world tryin' to get your
message through.

No one heard a single word you said.
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your heart.

Letra:
Ooh, she's a little runaway.
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say.
Ooh, she's a little runaway.

A different line every night is guaranteed to blow your mind
I see you out on the streets, call me for a wild time
So you sit home alone 'cause there's nothing left that you can
do
There's only pictures hung in the shadows left there to look
at you

You know she likes the lights at nights on the neon Broadway
signs
She don't really mind, it's only love she hopes to find

Coros repetidos

No one heard a single word she said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your heart

Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say

Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
Now she was the night away

Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say

Ooh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
Now she was the night away

The beautiful flowers that adorned the outside St. George's Chapel yesterday for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding ceremony aren't staying on the church. Rather, they've gone to decorate the rooms of St. Joseph's Hospice in London.
It was announced before the royal wedding that the flowers, which were designed by London-based florist Philippa Craddock and include white garden roses, peonies, and fox gloves, would be distributed to charity, but the organizations had yet to be revealed until today.
Iain MacLeod shared the news on Twitter that the flowers had been delivered to the hospice.
"Today we got a very special delivery. Beautiful bouquets made from the #royalwedding flowers which we gave to our patients," reads his Tweet. "A big thank you to Harry and Meghan and florist Philippa Craddock. Our hospice smells and looks gorgeous. Such a lovely gesture."
The organization's official account posted as well.
It is unclear if they received all the flowers from the day, or if they were split between multiple charities.
That said, we do know that Markle's bouquet was not to a non-profit. It is customary for royal brides to leave their bouquets on the grave of the unknown warrior in Westminster Abbey, a somber tradition that was started by the Queen Mum in 1923, who left her flowers on the memorial in honor of her brother Fergus, who was killed in World War I in 1915.
Meghan's small collection of blooms, some of which were hand-picked by Prince Harry, arrived at the abby earlier this morning.

Sutton, Willie
Willie Sutton (William Francis Sutton, Jr.), 1901–80, American bank robber, b. Brooklyn, N.Y. Sutton, who committed his first serious crime at age 9, robbed his first bank in 1927, and he claimed he stole some $2 million in more than 20 robberies over two decades. Known as "Willie the Actor" for his many disguises, he was repeatedly caught and jailed, attempted escape a dozen timess, and thrice succeeded. Finally captured in 1952, he was sentenced to 30 to 120 years in prison but was paroled in 1969. A folk hero of sorts in his heyday, he denied ever having said that he robbed banks "because that's where the money is."
