Customer loyalty is a thing of the past. It has never been easier to compare and switch energy suppliers, broadband providers and even loan facilitators. Use our free price comparison tool to get a clear view of the best deals on offer, but remember to think long term - some energy providers offer limited deals to entice consumers, before raising their prices.
If you're disillusioned with savings accounts altogether, peer-to-peer lending is an interesting alternative. The idea is that savers lend money to borrowers, paying a small percentage of their earnings to a broker who performs the relevant credit checks that reduce the risk of defaults. Sites like Zopa and RateSetter are two great choices that have been running for years, giving you the chance to earn interest of more than 5%.
There are plenty of articles out there that tell you to cut back on spending, but there is an alternative. There are now a whole number of sites set up exclusively to help you get paid each time you spend, usually through cashback or vouchers. Try shopping through a site like Quidco, which rewards its customers with cashback for every pound they spend. Once you're done shopping, you can even sell your opinions to Crowdology or SwagBucks for a few extra pennies.
If being frugal is not for you, try turning your knowledge into cash. A survey by private bank Coutts showed that passion investments have delivered returns of 77% since 2005, dwarfing returns from the FTSE share index. So if you're a classic car buff or love antiques fairs, your hobby could be your route to a savings boost that your ISA can only dream of.
When both money and time are short, make the most of your assets. If you have a spare room or a holiday home, consider short-term lets, or use sites like airbnb to host travellers on a budget. Even your driveway can earn you money - rising parking prices and overzealous attendants have sparked a rise in websites like Parklet and ParkatmyHouse, which allow homeowners to rent out their driveway to people who work in the area. It may seem like a big lifestyle concession, but for a sizeable boost to your savings, it's worth it.
With all these money-saving tips, it's important to keep track of your progress. Although this can seem like a tricky task, there are a number of ways to make it simple. Our free budgeting software brings all of your current accounts, savings accounts and credit cards together, groups your transactions by spending type, and lets you monitor your incomings and outgoings all in one place.
Try these tips to see how much you can boost your savings by, and if you have any other money saving methods, let us know in the comments below.

From custard tarts and cherry liquor to old-world neighborhoods and historic architecture, the list of Lisbon's charms is lengthy. Definitely near the top of that list are the many well-priced accommodations, which are a Cheapo's dream come true.
There are loads of brilliant and inexpensive options whether you are looking for an arty boutique or just a friendly hostel. When it comes to sleeping cheap in Lisbon, even a central location doesn't have to mean splurging.
EuroCheapo has a whole guide to budget hotels in Lisbon, but we've highlighted five of our favorites that you might want to book on your next trip.
Now this is a location. To beat the crowds on a day trip to Sintra, you'll want to stay at the Lisbon Destination Hostel, as it's situated inside the city's impressive Rossio train station. Not that you'd notice once you're inside, as the central atrium is more like a relaxed, green and leafy tropical paradise (complete with hammocks) than busy transport hub. But it's not style over substance. Friendly staff, no curfew, a self-service bar and pancakes for breakfast means the hostel lives up to its name. Solo travelers who can't face another dorm room may want to check out their single rooms too.
Lisbon Dreams typifies the type of accommodation that the city does so well and that EuroCheapo loves so much. This place is budget boutique, with an arty, independent feel and—perhaps most importantly—a friendly staff. Décor is clean, fresh and white, and many rooms have their own small terraces, while there's also a back garden and patio to make the most of the Portuguese sunshine. There's free WiFi throughout the building, and breakfast is also included in the incredibly reasonable price. You do need to share a bathroom, but you'll be provided with your own bathrobe to make that experience just a touch more luxurious.
Another excellent hostel, Home is split over two floors of a historic building right in the heart of Baixa. The lower level is definitely the sociable area, and the mix of vintage and contemporary décor, including a disco ball, is worthy of the hippest hangout. It's a great place to enjoy Mamma's dinner, a communal, traditional meal served every night. Want some peace and quiet? There's an entire floor separating the dorms from the communal area meaning you won't be disturbed when the partying goes on into the night. Sweet touches such as old photos and retro artwork in the bathrooms work alongside thoughtful details including desks and hairdryers in the women's dorms to make you really feel at Home.
Well worth checking out, especially if you're looking for more traditional hotel option: we recommend Residencial Florescente as a clean, friendly and popular destination. You get a few more facilities for your money compared to the other options, including flat screen TVs in the rooms and private bathrooms. It's also got an elevator—a rarity for Lisbon's budget accommodation. However, beware the restaurants on this same street as they're as tourist trap as Lisbon gets. For a better experience, head to the tiny, delicious and extremely reasonable Jesus é Goês Goan restaurant on the nearby Rua São José.
Another of Lisbon's beautiful buildings that's been repurposed for accommodation, Lost Inn Lisbon's clean and white makeover means every part of this hostel, from its communal areas to its dorm rooms, feels spacious and airy. It also caters to the needs of the 21st-century traveler with individual reading lights and power sockets for dorm beds, as well as large, electronic lockers. It's situated near to Cais do Sodré station, a once down-at-heel area now with its own thriving bar scene offering a change of scene from the bustling Bairro Alto. Check out the food market at Mercado da Ribeira for bargain eats, and you can travel from the station to Belém to stock up on custard tarts, an important part of any Lisbon visit.

Йоханнесбургский планетарий () — первый полноразмерный планетарий в Африке и второй в Южном полушарии, расположенный в городе Йоханнесбург в Южно-Африканской Республике. Был открыт  12 октября 1960 года. Принадлежит Университету Витватерсранда.

История
Впервые о постройке планетария в Йоханнесбурге было объявлено в 1956 году на празднествах, организованных в честь 70-й годовщины со дня основания города. Было принято решение начать сбор средств для покупки уже построенного планетарного проектора из Европы. Были начаты переговоры с муниципальной администрацией города Гамбурга о продаже их проекторного проекта построенного в 1930 году. Однако властями Гамбурга было выдвинуто условие, что данный планетарий проектор перед тем как попадет в Йоханнесбургский планетарий будет полностью модернизирован на заводе компании «Цейс» в Оберкохене, специализирующейся в области оптики. Проектор Гамбургского планетария был немедленно демонтирован и переехал в Оберкохен для капитального ремонта и был полностью модернизирован.
Планы на строительство нового здания проектора были впервые составлены в 1958 году, а строительство началось в 1959 году. Планетарий открылся 12 октября 1960 года. Многие годы планетарий проводит наблюдения небесных тел, лекции и семинары. Основным направлением деятельности Йоханнесбургского планетария является популяризация естественнонаучных знаний в области космоса. В 2010 году Йоханнесбургский планетарий отметил своё пятидесятилетие.

Palm Beach Gardens, FL – The PGA of America and the NBC Sports Group have agreed to extend their rights deal for the Ryder Cup and Senior PGA Championship through 2030.
The deal gives NBC the rights to 16 more Senior PGA Championships and an additional eight Ryder Cups. The two groups have partnered on the Ryder Cup since 1991.
The Ryder Cup will get extended coverage on both NBC and Golf Channel, including a live Ryder Cup captain selection show.
"In many ways, this is a transformational deal for The PGA of America," said PGA of America President CEO Pete Bevacqua. "We are not only excited about the continued excellent coverage and treatment of the Ryder Cup, Senior PGA Championship presented by KitchenAid and other PGA of America events by the NBC Sports Group, but we are eager to work with the networks of NBC, including Golf Channel, on celebrating the unique role of the PGA Professional in the game. Golf Channel is the daily voice of golf in this country. There are wonderful synergies that will be explored between that voice and The PGA of America, as we work together to honor PGA Professionals, draw upon their expertise and expand their relevance among those who already play the game and those who aspire to play."
Among other Ryder Cup coverage will be preview shows, vignettes, features, reports and points updates on NBC and Golf Channel; a Ryder Cup Documentary Series on both networks; live coverage of practice rounds (for the first time ever); and new Ryder Cup highlight programming on Telemundo and Mun2 to expand Hispanic viewership opportunities.

Violence Against Women Act Essay
The Violence Against Women Act creates a right to be "free from crimes ofviolence" that are gender motivated. It also gives a private civil right ofaction to the victims of these crimes. The Senate report attached to the actstates that "Gender based crimes and fear of gender based crimes. . . reducesemployment opportunities and consumer spending affecting interstatecommerce.
" Sara Benenson has been abused by her husband, Andrew Benenson, since 1978. Because of this abuse, she sued her husband under various tort claims andviolations under the Violence Against Women Act. Now Mr. Benenson isprotesting the constitutionality of this act claiming that Congress has noright to pass a law that legislates for the common welfare.
However, Congress has a clear Constitutional right to regulate interstatecommerce. This act is based solely on interstate commerce and is thereforeConstitutional. Because of abuse, Sara Benenson was afraid to get a jobbecause it would anger her husband. She was afraid to go back to school andshe was afraid to go shopping or spend any money on her own. All three ofthese things clearly interfere and affect interstate commerce.
Women likeMrs. Benenson are the reason the act was passed. There has been a long history of judgements in favor of Congress's power tolegislate using the commerce clause as a justification. For the past fiftyyears, Congress's right to interpret the commerce clause has beenunchallenged by the Court with few exceptions. There is no rational reasonfor this court to go against the powerful precedents set by the Supreme courtto allow Congress to use the Commerce clause.
In the case of Katzenbach v. McClung, the Court upheld an act of Congresswhich was based on the commerce clause, that prohibited segregation. McClung,the owner of a barbeque that would not allow blacks to eat inside therestaurant, claimed that his business was completely intrastate. He statedthat his business had little or no out of state business and was thereforenot subject to the act passed by Congress because it could not legislateintrastate commerce. The Court however, decided that because the restaurantreceived some of it's food from out of state that it was involved ininterstate commerce.
The same logic should be applied in this case. Even though Sara Benenson'sinability to work might not seem to affect interstate commerce, it will insome way as with McClung, thus making the act constitutional. The SupremeCourt had decided that any connection with interstate commerce,as long as ithas a rational basis, makes it possible for Congress to legislate it. In the United States v. Lopez decision, The Supreme Court struck down the GunFree School Zones Act. It's reasoning was that Congress had overstepped it'spower to legislate interstate commerce.
The Court decided that this act wasnot sufficiently grounded in interstate commerce for Congress to be allowedto pass it. The circumstances in this case are entirely different than in the case ofSara Benenson. For one thing, the Gun Free School Zones Act was not nearly aswell based in the commerce clause as is our case. The Gun act said thatviolence in schools kept student from learning and therefore limited theirfuture earning power. It also said that violence affected national insurancecompanies. These connections are tenuous at best and generally too long termto be considered.
However, in the case of Mrs. Benenson, her inability towork and spend directly and immediately affected interstate commerce. Therefore, the Lopez decision should not have any part in the decision ofthis case. The Supreme Court, in McCulloch v. Maryland, gave Congress the right to makelaws that are out of their strict Constitutional powers so as to be able tofulfill one of their Constitutional duties.
In this case, the Court allowedthe federal government to create a bank. There is no Constitutional right todo this and Maryland challenged the creation of this bank. The high courtruled that in order for Congress to be able to accomplish it's duties. The same logic should be applied here. The Violence Against Women Act is anexample of Congress overstepping it's direct Constitutional rights so it canbetter regulate and facilitate interstate commerce.
In order for Congress tolegislate interstate commerce fairly, it must allow people to be able to workand spend as they should be able to. If a woman is afraid of being abused ifshe gets a job or spends money, it affects interstate commerce. Thus TheViolence Against Women Act is Constitutionally based and necessary forinterstate commerce. Violence against women is a terrible crime. It destroys women's self esteem,tears apart families, and destroys lives.
Many times, it will lead to murderor other terrible crimes. What the Violence Against Women Act is trying to dois give women a weapon to protect themselves from violent spouses. Withoutthis act, many women would be left incapable of getting any form of financialredress for the years of suffering and abuse they went through. It is wrong to deny women a tool to rebuild they're lives after an abusiverelationship. The years of abuse they went through makes it hard if notimpossible for them to get a job or work in an office.
These women are afraidfor the rest of their lives that if they make a mistake or displease the menaround them, they will be beaten. This act allows women to get some means ofgetting money to live on while they rebuild their lives. It allows them toseek professional help if necessary. Without this act, women would be forcedon welfare or worse. When this happens, it benefits no one.
The Violence Against Women Act has a strong Constitutional basis in thecommerce clause, despite what Andrew Benenson says. The Supreme Court hasallowed many acts such as this to stand for the past fifty years. All theprecedents of cases with similar circumstances are to allow the act tostand. Also, we cannot forget the human aspect of this case.
This act is atool for women to rebuild their shattered lives after an abusiverelationship. To declare his act unconstitutional would be both legally andmorally wrong.Words/ Pages : 971 / 24

Last week, Rupert (Ditsworth) Tarsey, the controversial Broward Republican, launched a vanity website touting how he's a great guy. A ridiculous press release from a public relations website announced the Black Friday launch of "RupertTarsey.com." The announcement stated, "The website provides an overview of his progressing political career, community service background, and his philanthropic passions." The PRWeb post made no mention of Tarsey's brutal attack on a female classmate more than ten years ago.
Rupert Tarsey hit Lizzie Barcay with claw hammer more than forty times before leaving her for dead in a California street. Tarsey was charged with attempted first degree murder and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He would later plead guilty to the aggravated assault charge and receive six years probation as well as monitored treatment.
News of Tarsey's criminal past made international headlines in September after he planned to replace the current chairman of the Broward Republican Party.
The new website appears to be another attempt at reputation management. The site is filled with platitudes, meaningless statements and pictures of Rupert Tarsey's wife and children.
Sources tell REDBROWARD that a national newspaper will publish another exposé into Rupert Ditsworth Tarsey later this week. Does Rupert Tarsey think this vanity website will soften any blows? Does he hope to fool people into believing his site over a national newspaper?
Why don't you ever cover the long history of violent and perverse crimes of the sergeant-at-arms of BREC?
We covered that topic back in 2013. Thanks for playing.


Allow yourself to be guided more by your soul and Higher Self than by ego.
If you find yourself too often overwhelmed with the busyness of life, yet not connected to your core, your soul, you are certainly not alone. Today's society seems to focus on speed, productivity, material success and superficial connection – often at the expense of a spiritual connection / life. To find your way onto the soul path, which brings with it deeper presence, greater peace of mind, and more comfort in the world, a spiritual companion / guide may be of great help.
Your Soul Path comes from the perspective of Interspiritual counseling. Here the path is spacious, broad and exploratory, drawing upon many traditions, and is not based in a specific notion of Spirit (or God or the Divine). Instead the counselee is encouraged to develop and deepen his/her own understanding of and relation to the creative forces guiding the Universe.
The description AnnE uses most in describing spiritual counseling comes from one of her teachers, Kim Hughes, who said, "My job is to support people in living more from their soul than their ego." Yes! What does that mean?
It means we strip away all the "should's" and everything that we have been taught will bring us joy, meaning, and fulfillment in our lives and instead explore for each and every one of us what our own individual path is. We work with such questions as "What is my work? What free time activities truly nurture and restore me? Does my current lifestyle feel right for me at this point in my life?"
It means we also explore the notion of your Higher Self and how connecting more deeply with that aspect of yourself can serve you.
It means we delve into the healing of your soul - whether that is by addressing unresolved grief, forgiveness that needs to be accepted or given, or anything else that "bruises the soul" to quote Ghalib - and inviting you to step into the wholeness of your authentic being and life.
It means we support you in learning to work with your energy in a way that meets the demands of your life.
It means anything it needs to mean for you to be able to live the rich, full, meaningful life your heart and soul longs for.
AnnE has received a postgraduate certificate in Interspiritual Counseling at One Spirit Interfaith Seminary, and now serves on the staff of that program as a Dean. As a member of Spiritual Directors International (SDI), she also draws upon the resources they offer to continue her learning and connect with others in the field.
Spiritual Direction sessions are available in the Your Soul Path office in Great Barrington, MA, as well as by phone or Skype.

Who can join and participate?
Participation Fee What's included - What's not included?
The most popular of our expeditions, Cape Horn & Tierra del Fuego's Darwin Range provide a mixture in which one of the planet's oldest man-nature challenges such as the rounding of the horn meets an immersion into the deep wilderness that the southern shores of Tierra del Fuego have to offer; all this as part of a crew, in the spirit of sailor's camaraderie.
The same brutal nature feared by the seafarer's of the past, is today cherished as home to one of "earth's last wild places" as stated in 2002 by NGO Conservation International. The government of Chile has created two national parks (PN Cabo de Hornos, PN Alberto de Agostini) in the area, and UNEP designated in 2005 the "Cape Horn World Biosphere Reserve".
What makes these Expeditions so special?
They are a chance to experience first-hand the adventure and camaraderie of sea navigation.
Because individual berths are sold on each trip, giving enough flexibility for different group sizes to join in. Also these Expeditions are a good opportunity to fully explore the area the way not even airplanes or big cruise ships can. Full access to coves and islets are what make "our way", the unique way in which to carefully unveil the secrets of the area.

Sealand Seahawks countdown to kick-off Sponsored by Digital Fuel
Daniel Hewitt • August 24th, 2022
August and September are always a great starting point when it comes to sports. American Football is very much the same with the NFL getting underway September 8th as the LA Rams host the Buffalo Bills for the opener. Expectations run high as the excitement increases and the same can be said for the team sponsored by Digital Fuel, the Sealand Seahawks.
Late September will see over 100 international players descend upon Montpellier in France to compete against 2 French teams in back to back games.
The first game showcases the aptly-named Seahawks Masters who face the Servals De Clermont-Ferrand. The Masters team combines legends of the game (who just so happen to be born before 1990) and will host a roster bolstered by some ex GB Lions players and be sporting a brand new jersey with the Digital Fuel Logo adorned on the chest.
The evening game will be the 2nd game for the main Seahawks outfit who will be taking on some of the best players France has to offer in a collective team named the Royal Roosters.
Not only will the Masters be making their first appearance on the 24th but so will the official Seahawks Footballs provided by Digital Fuel. The team held a practice in Milton Keynes on July 9th for both outfits where the brand new balls got to see their first action and both teams were able to polish their playbooks and make adjustments in preparation for the trip over the channel.
In true Seahawks fashion though, the fun doesn't end in France. Club President Mike Ireland has been hard at work all year, following the club values of inclusivity and bringing everyone together, and has launched the Sealand Shehawks. Aided by 4 fantastic captains in Jess, Louie, Shannon & Molly there has been a massive collection of female athletes applying to be on the Roster and that isn't all. March 2023 will see the team face their first test in Sweden as they play the Arlanda Jets.
Women in sport has been huge in 2022 with the Lionesses bringing it home in the Euros and the GB Lions Women's Football Team taking Silver medals in the World Championships in Finland. It's great to see sports becoming more accessible for everyone who wants to play and especially for American Football that has been bolstered by Molly of the Seahawks who runs the GirlsofGridiron UK page.
Here at Digital Fuel we want to send our best to those playing in France next month and the game in Sweden in March. The Sealand Seahawks team can be followed on their social media accounts as well as with the GirlsofGridiron for all results and updates.

Cypriot pollitics are among the most contentious in Europe, and frequently attract the attention of the international community. Here, Yiannos Katsourides traces the historical development of the Cypriot party system, and in particular the growth of the Communist Party, now known as AKEL- the first formally organised political party on the island. The party was a political movement with a specific programme for radical reform that conficted both with the British Empire and the local establishment. It was treated with hostility and declared illegal. Based on new archival research, Katsorides addresses the social, religious, economic and political environment in which communist and working class politics existed on the island, and locates them within the context of a country connected inextricably with Turkey, Great Britain and Greece. This book will be of significant interest to anyone interested in the history of Cyprus, European communist movements or British colonialism and diplomacy in the Mediterranean.

Q: How to loop string()() array in vb.net to append a string? I have a errorarray()() as String and this array has the following format
Errorarray(0)
             (0) 6869
             (1) textA
          (1)
             (0) 1234
             (1) textB
          (2)
             (0) 3456
             (1)

I need to append one string along with all the array(1) items. For example, textB+mystring if it's not empty.
How will achieve this?

A: I think you want to grab "textA", "textB", etc...where all those values are not blank?
If so, you could do something like:
Sub Main()
    Dim Errorarray = {
        ({"6869", "textA"}),
        ({"1234", "textB"}),
        ({"3456", ""})
    }

    Dim all1s As String = ""
    For y As Integer = 0 To Errorarray.GetUpperBound(0)
        If Errorarray(y)(1) <> "" Then
            all1s = all1s & If(all1s = "", "", "+") & Errorarray(y)(1)
        End If
    Next
    Console.WriteLine(all1s)
    Console.ReadLine()
End Sub

Resulting in:
textA+textB

A: Dim arr() As String = Errorarray(1)
For i As Integer = 0 To arr.Length - 1
     If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(arr(i)) Then
         arr(i) &= "mystring"
     End If
Next

Console.WriteLine(Errorarray(1)(1)) ' Will produce "textBmystring"

If by chance you would find yourself in such an unlucky situation, then have no fear: Because this is the book for you!
Full of colourful phrases and cheeky colloquialisms, The Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue is a feast of language that would make Jane Austen's nerves shatter. Compiled in 1811, its fascinating foreword rejoices in presenting Britain's first compendium of naughty and boorish words – outmatching the wit of the French peasantry by far, of course. As a cautionary note, its creator, Captain Grose begs those of a gentler constitution not to take too much offence at what should purely be considered a scientific catalogue.
When you think about it, this was essentially a gentleman's guide to the foreign country that the dockyards and dodgy alley's of Cockney London must have represented for the upper classes. Throughout the ages, slang has been a code language, a way of speaking clearly among an in-crowd while appearing to speak gibberish to outsiders. This dictionary was a way for the gentry to unlock the secrets of the folks downstairs – perhaps to make sure that none of them were secretly plotting against their employers!
Unfortunately, as a new publication, it hasn't aged well. While its 21st century packaging might give the impression that this is a novelty booklet fit for light dinner conversations or to delight in during private sanitary moments, it is a quick modern reprint of the Georgian equivalent. While the vulgar language exemplified throughout the book has mostly gone out of fashion two-hundred years ago, the language used to translate it into standard English is also antiquated – and sometimes difficult to understand for modern speakers. Because of this, the booklet is not as useful or funny as it could have been.
Yes, this booklet has its moments and is good for a few giggles; but it is rather unlikely to hold the interest of even the most avid language lover for very long. Yet, as a historical artefact, it is worth reprinting, as well as rereading.
Thank you for bringing this book to our attention. I am now torn between curiosity and apprehension. Should I get the book?

Q: JavaScript - replace to English number I want to replace Bengali numbers to English numbers. such as
 var bengali = [০,১,২,৩,৪,৫,৬,৭,৮,৯];
 var eng = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];

bengali.replace(eng);
So that anyone write any bengali number it convert to english number. How can I achieve this?

A: A simple short method to convert Bengali numbers to the equivalent Arabic (English) numbers in Javascript is the following onliner function.
It will also convert Bengali numbers to Arabic in sentences leaving other text intact.
You can call the function on an "onkeyup" event to convert the text immediately.

const toEn = n => n.replace(/[০-৯]/g, d => "০১২৩৪৫৬৭৮৯".indexOf(d));

// Tests
console.log(toEn("৬৭৮৯.৮৯"));                 //6789.89
console.log(toEn("The Number is: ৬৭৮৯.৮৯"));  //The Number is: 6789.89
console.log(toEn("০১২৩৪৫৬৭৮৯.৮৯"));          //0123456789.89
console.log(toEn("০১২৩৪৫৬৭৮৯"));              //0123456789
console.log(toEn("দাম ১২৩৪"));                  //দাম 1234
console.log(toEn("মোট ১২৩৪"));                 //মোট 1234

Updated to add the reverse of changing English (Arabic) numbers to Bengali. This is a shorter one-liner code:

const toBn = n => n.replace(/\d/g, d => "০১২৩৪৫৬৭৮৯"[d])

// Tests
console.log(toBn("6789.89"));                 //৬৭৮৯.৮৯
console.log(toBn("The Number is: 6789.89"));  //The Number is: ৬৭৮৯.৮৯
console.log(toBn("0123456789.89"));           //০১২৩৪৫৬৭৮৯.৮৯
console.log(toBn("0123456789"));              //০১২৩৪৫৬৭৮৯
console.log(toBn("1234"));                    //১২৩৪

A: You have everything that you need with just the bengali array (though, you need to wrap each character in quotes) and the built in Array method indexOf().  This code demonstrates it:
var bengali = ["০", "১", "২", "৩", "৪", "৫", "৬", "৭", "৮", "৯"];

console.log(bengali.indexOf("০"));  // index is: 0
console.log(bengali.indexOf("১"));  // index is: 1
console.log(bengali.indexOf("২"));  // index is: 2
console.log(bengali.indexOf("৩"));  // index is: 3
console.log(bengali.indexOf("৪"));  // index is: 4
console.log(bengali.indexOf("৫"));  // index is: 5
console.log(bengali.indexOf("৬"));  // index is: 6
console.log(bengali.indexOf("৭"));  // index is: 7
console.log(bengali.indexOf("৮"));  // index is: 8
console.log(bengali.indexOf("৯"));  // index is: 9

So, all you have to do in your replace function is to return the index of the character that you are checking.

A: This is also a good solution.
    const convertBanglaToEnglishNumber=(str)=>{
    let banglaNumber=
        {'০': 0,
        '১': 1,
        '২': 2,
        '৩': 3,
        '৪': 4,
        '৫': 5,
        '৬': 6,
        '৭': 7,
        '৮': 8,
        '৯': 9}
    for (var x in banglaNumber) {
        str = str.replace(new RegExp(x, 'g'), banglaNumber[x]);
    }
    return str;
}

A: Everybody's answers was workable. But javascript does not compare with direct bangla numbers. You should use below array for bangla to english conversion
var numbers = {
        "\u09E6" : 0,
        "\u09E7" : 1,
        "\u09E8" : 2,
        "\u09E9" : 3,
        "\u09EA" : 4,
        "\u09EB" : 5,
        "\u09EC" : 6,
        "\u09ED" : 7,
        "\u09EE" : 8,
        "\u09EF" : 9
    };

A: You have two options, depending on how maintainable you want the code to be.
I would recommend using a hash, keyed by Bengali number, and replacing with the value:

var numbers = {
  '০': 0,
  '১': 1,
  '২': 2,
  '৩': 3,
  '৪': 4,
  '৫': 5,
  '৬': 6,
  '৭': 7,
  '৮': 8,
  '৯': 9
};

function replaceNumbers(input) {
  var output = [];
  for (var i = 0; i < input.length; ++i) {
    if (numbers.hasOwnProperty(input[i])) {
      output.push(numbers[input[i]]);
    } else {
      output.push(input[i]);
    }
  }
  return output.join('');
}

document.getElementById('r').textContent = replaceNumbers('৯  ৭  ৩');

If, for some reason, that isn't possible then you can use two arrays and a similar technique to map between them.

A: working code in AJS
In Views:

{{replaceNumbersE2B('123.456908')}}

{{replaceNumbersB2E('৪৫৬.৯০৮')}}

In ctrl:
$scope.testNumber = "";
        var numbersB = {
            '০': 0,
            '১': 1,
            '২': 2,
            '৩': 3,
            '৪': 4,
            '৫': 5,
            '৬': 6,
            '৭': 7,
            '৮': 8,
            '৯': 9
        };

        $scope.replaceNumbersB2E = function (input) {
            var output = [];
            for (var i = 0; i < input.length; ++i) {
                if (numbersB.hasOwnProperty(input[i])) {
                    output.push(numbersB[input[i]]);
                } else {
                    output.push(input[i]);
                }
            }
            return output.join('');
        }

        //$scope.testNumber = $scope.replaceNumbersB2E('৯৭৩');

        var numbersE = {
            0:'০',
            1:'১',
            2:'২',
            3:'৩',
            4:'৪',
            5:'৫',
            6:'৬',
            7:'৭',
            8:'৮',
            9:'৯'
        };

        $scope.replaceNumbersE2B = function (input) {
            var output = [];
            for (var i = 0; i < input.length; ++i) {
                if (numbersE.hasOwnProperty(input[i])) {
                    output.push(numbersE[input[i]]);
                } else {
                    output.push(input[i]);
                }
            }
            return output.join('');
        }

        $scope.testNumber = $scope.replaceNumbersE2B('111.65666');
        alert($scope.testNumber);

A: English to Bengali number
1,2,3... convert to ১,২,৩.... using pipe(angular) or filter(angularjs)
Example for angular:
import { Pipe, PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';

@Pipe({
  name: 'englishToBanglaNumber'
})

export class EnglishToBanglaNumberPipe implements PipeTransform {

  transform(value: any, args?: any): any {

    var finalEnlishToBanglaNumber = {
      '0': '০', '1': '১', '2': '২', '3': '৩', '4': '৪', '5': '৫', '6': '৬', '7': '৭', '8': '৮', '9': '৯'
    };
    var retStr = value;
    for (var x in finalEnlishToBanglaNumber) {
      retStr = retStr.replace(new RegExp(x, 'g'), finalEnlishToBanglaNumber[x]);
    }
    return retStr;
  }
}

using in component.html
 {{"123" | englishToBanglaNumber}}

result: ১২৩
example for angularjs
app.filter('englishToBanglaNumber', [function () {
    return function (text) {
        var finalEnlishToBanglaNumber = {
            '0': '০', '1': '১', '2': '২', '3': '৩', '4': '৪', '5': '৫', '6': '৬', '7': '৭', '8': '৮', '9': '৯'
        };
        String.prototype.getDigitBanglaFromEnglish = function () {
            var retStr = this;
            for (var x in finalEnlishToBanglaNumber) {
                retStr = retStr.replace(new RegExp(x, 'g'), finalEnlishToBanglaNumber[x]);
            }
            return retStr;
        };

        return text.getDigitBanglaFromEnglish();
    };
}]);

if you convert Bengali to english just modify the replace mesthod

retStr.replace(new RegExp(finalEnlishToBanglaNumber[x], 'g'), x);


The recent revelations contained in the court-ordered release of documents relating to the sexual abuse of minors by clergy in Los Angeles might, at first glance, seem to be a case of "nothing new." Sadly, for many Americans, the sexual abuse of minors by some priests is no longer a surprise. But the release of these records marks one of the few times that reams of documents are available for public viewing—in this case, on the archdiocesan Web site. The files, which Archbishop José Gomez said make for "brutal and painful reading," should be read by every concerned priest, sister, brother and Catholic lay worker, not to mention bishops and archbishops. They detail decades of outrage by parents, as well as efforts by well-intentioned priests and others to remove abusive priests from ministry. The records also appear to show attempts to shield abusers from the proper law enforcement agencies. This is a rare opportunity to trace from its earliest days the way that such horrific crimes affect an individual, a family, a community.
Also new is Archbishop Gomez's decision to limit Cardinal Roger Mahony's "administrative and public" duties. While Cardinal Mahony is still a priest in good standing, he will no longer preside at confirmations, a typical function of retired bishops. Archbishop Gomez also accepted the resignation of Bishop Thomas Curry, the auxiliary bishop of Santa Barbara. Typically, bishops defend their predecessors; in this case Archbishop Gomez felt it necessary to hold these leaders accountable, thinking this is more in line with what Catholics expect. The example of Cardinal Bernard Law serving for many years as archpriest of a high-profile church in Rome following his resignation seemed unjust to many. Those who commit crimes of abuse should face the law; those in authority who fail to respond adequately should similarly be held accountable.
The recovery of King Richard III's body, which had lain under a parking lot in Leicester, England, for over five centuries, is a gentle reminder that legendary locations often have some basis in fact. Richard's body was thought to have been located near a church not far from Bosworth Field, the site of his death during a battle against Henry Tudor, and there it was. Many visitors to the Holy Land, Rome and other holy sites know this phenomenon. They are often reminded by guidebooks that legendary sites may be more historically sound than one suspects. Until the 19th century, for instance, many scholars believed that the pool of Bethesda, where Jesus healed a paralyzed man, was a fanciful place. The pool's five porticoes mentioned in John's Gospel were often considered mere symbols of the five books of Moses. But excavations later uncovered a pool in Jerusalem featuring five porticoes. St. Peter's tomb in Rome is another "reputed" location that ended up being precisely where legend had placed it.
Of course many legendary sites have absolutely no basis in fact. But legendary sites deserve the benefit of the doubt for several reasons. First, people in antiquity (and in the Middle Ages) did not move around as much as we moderns, and so when pilgrims arrived, it was easy for locals to point out where something had happened. Second, the more extraordinary the event the more likely it would be recalled. (The brother of the woman with the hemorrhage would have remembered where his sister was healed.) We may underestimate the accuracy of oral traditions and the intelligence of our ancestors. The next time someone sniffs at a legendary holy site, don't sniff back.
"The guerrilla is the fish. The people are the sea. If you cannot catch the fish, you have to drain the sea." That was the memorable, inhuman policy of Efraín Ríos Montt during his bloody tenure as political overseer of Guatemala's brutal civil war in 1982. That conflict officially ended in 1996. More than 200,000 were killed over decades of bloodshed, which, it must be noted, was aided and abetted by the policies of successive administrations in the United States.
Guatemala's Law of National Reconciliation helped preserve the peace in 1996 and offered amnesty for "political crimes" committed during the war; but it excluded genocide, torture and other offenses not subject to statutes of limitation under international law. It was still a bit of shock on Jan. 26, however, when a Guatemalan judge ruled that Mr. Ríos Montt could finally be brought to trial. At the age of 86, he will be forced to account for ordering the killing of more than 1,700 Mayan villagers during his 18-month reign.
The trial will be notable for a number of reasons. The first is that it is happening at all. It represents the first domestic prosecution of a one-time head of state on charges of genocide, suggesting that international tribunals are not the only avenues for justice. Mr. Ríos Montt's postwar career is a perfect example of why it is so difficult to pursue such cases when the victims are co-nationalists of the offenders. The general avoided arrest for years by taking advantage of congressional immunity, Guatemala's weak judiciary, the nation's reluctance to confront its past and, frankly, fear.
The general's impunity has finally come to an end.

UK Real Property Beneficial Ownership Register – Draft Legislation Published
(The National Law Review) -- The UK Government recently published a draft Registration of Overseas Entities Bill that will require foreign entities who own or desire to own land in the UK to take steps to identify their beneficial owner(s) and to register them. Such a register would be a world-first and is part of the UK Government's drive to increase transparency to combat money laundering. The Bill imposes penalties for non-compliance and restrictions on the buying and selling of UK property for non-compliant entities.
Plans for a public register of beneficial ownership of overseas companies owning property in the UK ( the "Register") were first announced at the Anti-Corruption Summit in May 2016 by then-Prime Minister David Cameron. Following this, in April 2017, the Government published its proposals on how it intended to implement the Register and called for evidence seeking views on these specific proposals. In May 2018, the UK Government published a response to the call for evidence—see our previous advisory, "UK Government Proposes Beneficial Owners Registry of Overseas Companies That Own UK Property," for more details.
How the Register Will Work
The key features of the Bill are as follows:
The Register will affect freehold and leasehold property (where the term is more than seven years) and will apply to all overseas entities, except governments and public authorities.
The definition of beneficial owner is modelled on the PSC regime for UK companies and LLPs.1
The Register is to be kept by Companies House and is to be available for public inspection (subject to limitations on the disclosure of certain sensitive information).
Beneficial ownership will need to be registered with (and verified by) Companies House, who will then issue a unique identification number (an overseas entity ID). Without the ID, the overseas entity will not be registered on the Register as the owner of the property.
Once registered, an overseas entity is required to update the information annually until such time as it successfully applies to be removed from the Register.
There are two key methods of enforcement: restrictions on property dispositions and criminal sanctions.
Restrictions will be put on all title registers of an overseas entity's properties that will prevent certain dispositions on the property, namely, transfer of title, grant of leases with terms of more than seven years or grant of charges, unless the overseas entity is registered (or is exempt from registration).
The criminal sanctions include fines and/or prison sentences. The severest penalty is an unlimited fine or five years' imprisonment for persons breaching any imposed restrictions on property dispositions (as described above). Individuals failing to register overseas entities when instructed, or individuals who knowingly try to deceive the Register by providing false information, face up to two years in jail and an unlimited fine.
Overseas entities who already hold UK property will be given 18 months from implementation of the new law to register and obtain an ID. After that, a restriction will be put on their property registers whether or not they have done so.
The diagram below (published by the UK Government alongside the Bill) sets out how the proposed system will work:
Next Steps and Comment
The UK Government is now consulting on this draft Bill (the Bill is available in full here) with the consultation closing at 5.00 p.m. on 17 September 2018. The UK Government has confirmed it is proposing a separate mechanism with regard to overseas entities that wish to engage in UK central government procurement.
This draft Bill fleshes out in detail the UK Government's plans for the Register. Non-UK investors in UK property will need to continue to be aware of such developments and give due consideration to the registration requirements as it is anticipated that the Register will come into force in 2021.
1 Under the PSC regime, beneficial owners of overseas entities are required to be registered with Companies House. A beneficial owner (X) of an overseas entity (Y) is defined as a person or other legal entity that satisfies one or more of the following conditions:
• Condition 1 – X holds, directly or indirectly, more than 25% of the shares in Y;
• Condition 2 – X holds, directly or indirectly, more than 25% of the voting rights in Y;
• Condition 3 – X holds the right, directly or indirectly, to appoint or remove a majority of the board of directors of Y;
• Condition 4 – X has the right to exercise, or actually exercises, significant influence or control over Y;
• Condition 5 – (a) the trustees of a trust, or the members of a partnership, unincorporated association or other entity, that is not a legal person under the law by which it is governed, meet any of the conditions above (in their specified capacity as such) in relation to Y; and (b) X has the right to exercise, or actually exercises, significant influence or control over the activities of that trust or entity.

Newcastle in danger of 'drifting' without a manager, warns caretaker boss John Carver
Alan Pardew left Newcastle to join Crystal Palace earlier this month
Remi Garde is the frontrunner to replace Pardew as the new head coach
Caretaker boss John Carver wants to be given the job a permanent basis
Carver says the club are in danger of drifting the longer it is left
By Craig Hope for the Daily Mail
John Carver has warned that Newcastle United will end up 'drifting' unless a swift resolution is brought to their managerless status.
Drifting, however, just about captures the mission statement from within St James' Park - drift from the calm of mid-table waters and wash up in May on Treasure Island.
They do not want to trouble the cruise liners of the high seas, nor do they want to populate the plunge pool which leads to the Championship.
John Carver has urged the club to make a managerial appointment becuase the club are in danger of drifting
Caretaker boss Carver has publicly stated his desire to take on the role on a permanent basis
Alan Pardew said goodbye to Newcastle to take charge of Crystal Palace earlier this month
And that, essentially, is why Alan Pardew chose to go overboard. The new Crystal Palace boss hinted at as much this week, talking of 'battles won' and 'battles lost' with owner Mike Ashley, at the same time referencing 'tight financial margins' and the 'slow progress' policy in place on Tyneside.
Perhaps Ashley should be applauded for surveying the seas and deciding that any attempt to pirate the big boys could see his club drown in misplaced ambition – even pursuit of silverware in the cup competitions is viewed as a threat to staying afloat.
But supporters – and Pardew, it seems – have had enough of this Magpie mandate.
Carver himself is a fan. But the caretaker boss – who wants the job on a permanent basis – should be careful when he talks of redirecting his black-and-white ship towards the top of the Premier League - for he'll soon be walking the plank with any suggestion of a European voyage.

'Success for this club is to get as high up the table as we can. We finished fifth a couple of years ago and that was fantastic. So why can't we push fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth?' he said, refreshingly.
'There's all this talk about they (the club) are happy to sit in the top 10. No, go as high as you can. Set your marker as high as you can and, if you get there, what an achievement.
'We've proved we're capable of that and there was the recent run of six wins on the bounce as well.'
Carver admits that Saturday's trip to league leaders Chelsea and next Saturday's visit of Southampton are serving as a 'job interview' for himself.
But what he says off the pitch is perhaps as important as what his players do on it.
Former Lyon manager Remi Garde has been linked with the vacant position at Newcastle
Carver has warned Newcastle that the club is in danger of drifting if an appointment is not made swiftly
He has, however, advised managing director Lee Charnely to avoid a scenario whereby the search for a new head coach drags on.
'I've been in this situation before and if you don't do something about it in a short space of time you can end up drifting,' he said.
'And what this football club can't be doing is drifting, so a decision has to be made sooner rather than later, for everybody's benefit.
'The dressing room is settled at the moment but the longer it goes on it can become unsettled. I've been in this situation and it can affect people. You can' t just let it drift. You have to make a decision.'
Former Lyon boss Remi Garde remains the frontrunner to take charge. Carver says he would be happy to work under any new appointment, but also believes he himself boasts the credentials to remain in control of his hometown club.
Ryan Taylor, who has only made three appearances for the club this season, stretches during training
Star man Moussa Sissoko, who has been linked with a move away, keeps his eye on the ball
When asked if he was the right man to lead Newcastle in the long term, Carver said: 'Why not? People ask me what my qualifications are – well, I've got the UEFA Pro Licence and that's a starting point.
'I've worked with some of the best people in the game, Kevin Keegan, Kenny Dalglish, Ruud Gullit, Sir Bobby (Robson).
'If the club said to me, "take it to the end of the season", then I'd be prepared to do the job, no danger of that. I have enough belief in myself and enough time until the end of the season that they'd say to me then, "you've done a good job, keep the job".'
To keep the job, Carver must run a happy ship. Right now, however, it is beginning to seep a little water and the mood on the terraces during the FA Cup defeat at Leicester was one of mutiny.
Carver, then, is right – an appointment has to be made. For drifting can very quickly turn to sinking the longer a ship remains rudderless.

Q: "this.x = x" equivalent in objective C? Here is an example constructor in Java:
public Board(int row, int column)
{
    this.row = row;
    this.column = column;
}

...

int row;
int column;

and here is my method in Objective C I am trying to do the same thing:
- (void) setSquares: (int) row:(int) column
{
    self.row = row; // <-- Error
    self.column = column;// <-- Error
}

...

int row;
int column;

As you can see I get 2 errors because the compiler thinks I am trying to access 2 properties, one called row and one called column. I know this is how you are suppose to access properties but how are you suppose to 'change the scope' so that I can set the local variables to the parameters of the method? How do I do this in Objective C?

A: Your routine in Objective C is written incorrectly.
It should be:
-(void)setSquares:(int)row col:(int)column{
    self.row = row;
    self.column = column;
}

A: That Java constructor would generally be translated like this:
@interface Board : NSObject

@property (nonatomic, assign) int row;
@property (nonatomic, assign) int column;

@end

@implementation Board

- (id)initWithRow:(int)row andColumn:(int)column {
    if (self = [super init]) {
        self.row = row;
        self.column = column;
    }
    return self;
}

@end

A: Just rename the metod paramethers:
- (void)setSquares:(int)newRow col:(int)newColumn
{
    row = newRow;
    column = newColumn;
}

Dreams are our mind's unconscious messages.
Some of us clearly remember their dreams in the earlier moments of the waking consciousness.
Our dreams are related to whatever occupies the most our mind during the day; dreams can provide specific solutions to current dilemmas.
My work examines the representation of nocturnal dreams, focusing mainly on those which appear in the hypnagogic state, right before awakening.
I investigate the potential of lucid dreaming in the creation process.

    db.users.find({}, function(usererr, userdocs){
        if (usererr){ return usererr}
            // pull from developers collection
        db.developers.find({}, function(deverr, devdocs){
            if (deverr) {return deverr}
            res.render('developer', { title: 'Gizmo Ticket System', developers:devdocs, users:userdocs });
        });
    });
});

A: You could place the logic in a middleware before the routes:
router.use(['/auth', '/auth/*'], function(req, res, next) {
  var db = req.db;

  // pull from users collection
  db.users.find({}, function(usererr, userdocs){
    if (usererr)
      return next(usererr);

    // pull from developers collection
    db.developers.find({}, function(deverr, devdocs){
      if (deverr)
        return next(deverr);

      res.locals.title = 'Gizmo Ticket System';
      res.locals.developers = devdocs;
      res.locals.users = userdocs;
      next();
    });
  });
});

router.get('/auth', function(req, res) {
  res.render('auth-main');
});
router.get('/auth/closedtickets', function(req, res) {
  res.render('auth-closedtickets', { title: res.locals.title + ' - Closed Tickets' });
});
// ...

Or if you want the exact same rendering for all of those paths:
router.get(['/auth', '/auth/*'], function(req, res, next) {
  var db = req.db;

  // pull from users collection
  db.users.find({}, function(usererr, userdocs){
    if (usererr)
      return next(usererr);

    // pull from developers collection
    db.developers.find({}, function(deverr, devdocs){
      if (deverr)
        return next(deverr);

      res.render('developer', {
        title: 'Gizmo Ticket System',
        developers: devdocs,
        users: userdocs
      });
    });
  });
});


"Fujiwara no Ietaka (also read "Karyū"; 1158-1237) had the sobriquet "Mibu Nihon." He became son-in-law to Jakuren... and studied poetry with Shunzei... He was a member of GoToba's poetic circle and one of the editors of the ShinKokinshū. He has a personal poetry collection known both as the Mini Shū (after his sobriquet) and the Gyokugin Shū (Collection of Jewelled Songs). He has 282 poems in the Senzaishū and later imperial anthologies."
Quoted from: Pictures of the Heart: The Hyakunin Isshu in Word and Image by Joshua Mostow, p. 430.
According to the Spencer Museum the poems are by Kashōan Yonemori and Heiantei Nanatsuji.


Victoria loves being in front of the camera. That's all you need to know about her. Read on to see how we made these sepia toned lingerie photos.
As I've explained in other posts, I love using available light whenever possible. I constantly challenge myself to work within the confines of a light I can barely control to get the best images possible.
For these sepia toned lingerie photos, I thankfully had dimmable lamps in the bedroom area (one on each side of the bed) so I could have more fine-grained control over the amount of light on and around Victoria. I also used the bathroom light, which, while not on a dimmer, I was still able to control by opening and closing the bathroom door. In many instances, leaving it open just a sliver was all the light I needed.
Because of the very small amount of light I was working with, I shot these at ISO 8000. In post-production, I reduced the noise in Lightroom, and then added some grain back again for a grittier film-like feel. Why sepia? Well I wasn't a huge fan of the colour rendition of those lamps in the room, but I noticed something while working on the photos in colour. The sheets and Victoria's lingerie were both white, while the headboard, Victoria's skin, and the light from the lamps were all beige/tan/yellow. Warm, in other words. So I was essentially already looking at a monochromatic scene of warms and whites. It wasn't a far leap for my brain to take that one step further and apply a sepia tone.
Fun fact: sepia toning is named after the rich brown pigment derived from the ink sac of the common cuttlefish. Thanks, Wikipedia!
These sepia toned lingerie photos were shot on site at the Omni King Edward Hotel in Toronto.

Shaq Wore A Wig Because He Bumped Into An Exit Sign And Has Band-Aids On His Head
Shaquille O'Neal is a gigantic human. It's something that everyone knows, but you can't fully comprehend until you actually stand next to him in real life. Still, all you need to do is read that he is 7'1 (although he's been listed at as being a little taller at points in his career) and you can get a sense of how huge he is.
Anyway, we say all of that to say this: Shaq's size made him one of the most unstoppable forces in the history of American sports and also has the occasional downsides. One of them was on display on Tuesday night's edition of TNT's NBA coverage, which started with Shaq wearing a wig and the rest of the crew wondering what was going on.
He tried to play it off as a joke, saying that a hawk swooped down and attacked him, which obviously no one believed, even when he showed them the two band-aids on top of his head. But ultimately, Shaq came clean and admitted that he didn't see an exit sign, which led to him scraping the top of his head.

Fortunately Shaq didn't need stitches or anything like that, and instead, he and the rest of the gang laughed at an injury that's extremely relatable to anyone who has ever tried to enter a crawlspace and conked part of their head.
