One look at the name of the site, Albion Mall, and you can pretty easily guess at what game this virtual currency retailer provides services for: Albion Online. At Albion Mall, you'll find both gold and silver Albion Online currency for sale. However, Albion Mall doesn't stop there, offering two additional services that any Albion gamer will love. The power leveling service allows you to quickly hit higher tiers in a short amount of time while the Albion Online items for sale will let you get that character equipped with the best gear.
Because Albion Mall only focuses on Albion Online, the website offers better prices than their competition, many of whom frequently focus on 20-30 games at once. However, Albion Mall isn't the cheapest option among Albion Online, with prices that are typically a few cents higher than the competition. While a few cents isn't much, it can quickly add up when purchasing large amounts of gold and silver. Unlike other websites, Albion Mall does not offer any bulk discounts or loyalty programs.
Albion Mall boasts a large amount of Albion Online gold, silver and items, which allows them to deliver your goods in 60 minutes. Naturally, larger amounts of currency will result in a slightly longer delivery period, up to 72 hours. Albion Mall's power leveling service promises to get your character to the maximum level in under a week, which is perfect for players who want to quickly jump to the end of the game. Keep in mind that some forms of payment, such as a PayPal eCheck, can delay the delivery of your items by as much as four business days.
The Albion Mall website boasts an easy-to-use interface that works well on both PC and mobile devices. Even though there is no quick buy option, Albion Mall's interface makes it easy for you to purchase currency, items or other services in just a few minutes. Albion Mall also posts tips and how-to guides on their website, making it not just a place to buy currency but also a place to learn about the game as well. Where Albion Mall falters is in its payment options, only offering the bare minimum in payment providers. In addition to PayPal, Albion Mall only accepts Western Union and direct payment via card.
Another area where Albion Mall falters is in its customer service options. The website only offers a live chat feature buried in the corner of the main page. The location of the live chat feature makes it difficult for newcomers to the site to find it and get the answers they need. While Albion Mall does have a variety of social media accounts, none of them are equipped to handle customer service complaints. The good news is that the Albion Mall staff answers inquiries quickly and are both helpful and knowledgeable. Whatever your issue is, the Albion Mall customer service staff can solve it.

Q: Сделать сервер gRPC с использованием .NET Framework 4.7.2 Имеется проект на базе .NET Framework 4.7.2. Появился вопрос: возможно ли на базе этого сделать сервер и клиент gRPC (желательно, ещё включить шифрование). Пример, который кочует из статьи в статью, основан на ASP.NET Core, что для меня не очень подходит. Насчет перевода проекта с .NET Framework 4.7.2 на .NET 5.0 тоже думал, но есть сомнения в том плане, что внутри проекта также используются TCP-сокеты и очередь сообщений RabbitMQ. Есть сомнения, что оно заработает нормально.

A: Переводите на .NET 5, а точнее на .NET 6 уже пора, в ноябре он выйдет в релиз. При том .NET 6 это LTS, потому большие проекты корпоративного сегмента лучше переводить сразу на него.
С TCP сокетами и AMQP в .NET 6 всё хорошо, я бы сказал даже лучше, как минимум потому что разработчики дотнета добавили сокетам новых асинхронных методов, позволяющих выкинуть кучу костылей из своего кода и работать с сокетами на низком уровне так, как удобно.
Framework уже всё: во-первых, он сравнительно медленный, во-вторых перекостыливать современные технологии на старый фреймворк ради того чтобы потом возвращать всё в зад - такое себе занятие, пустая трата времени.
Если вы привязаны к 4.7.2, я рекомендую вам отказаться от gRPC до тех пор, пока не мигрируете проект.
Еще один немаловажный нюанс. gRPC требует HTTP/2, но его поддержки в .NET Framework 4.x нет, и не предвидится.

If there are still any gun owners out there that are thinking about compromising your rights in order to appease the anti gunners then you might want to read this piece written by a liberal gun grabber.
Once they stop guns from legally changing hands in private transactions that's where registration comes into play.
Once you know where all of the guns are, just wait for the next mass shooting or other disaster that happens when the legislative makeup of Congress is favorable to gun control and pass some legislation to start confiscating weapons.
Here are some of the key quotes from the article.
The very first thing we need is national registry. We need to know where the guns are, and who has them. Canada has a national firearms registry. We need to copy their model. We need a law demanding all firearms be registered to a national database. We need to know who has them and where they are. We need to make this as easy as possible for gun owners. The federal government provides the money and technical expertise, and the State police carry it out. … I think about 6 months should be enough time.
…So registration is the first step. Now that the vast majority are registered, we can do what we will. One good first step would be to close the registry to new registrations. This would, in effect, prevent new guns from being made or imported. This would put the murder machine corporations out of business for good, and cut the money supply to the NRA/GOA. As money dries up, the political capital needed for new controls will be greatly reduced.
…We must make guns expensive and unpopular, just like cigarettes. A nationwide, antigun campaign paid for by a per gun yearly tax paid by owners, dealers, and manufacturers would work well in this regard. We should also segway into an anti-hunting campaign, like those in the UK. By making hunting expensive and unpopular, we can make the transition to a gun free society much less of a headache for us.


If you're a man of a certain age, the likelihood is that your car is your pride and joy. We're not excluding women here, and we know there are many who also enjoy tinkering with cars, so we'll say that if you're a woman with taste, you likely have a car that is your pride and joy! Cars are, however you look at, often very easy to love. They do a practical job, yet we also tend to choose them with style in mind. Nobody, after all, wants to drive a dull car – we each buy the best-looking and highest performance model we can afford, and afford to run!
That's why saving money on car repairs and maintenance is always a bonus, and one way to do so is to take on the essential maintenance – and indeed improvements if you wish – yourself. With more modern cars, a lot of the engine and other mechanicals are complex, often computer controlled, and if your car is less than a few years old it will likely be covered by a warranty that requires it to be serviced by a registered dealer. For older cars, and those out of warranty, there is still plenty you can do yourself – and if you're not yet competent, there are plenty of night or day classes on car maintenance that can help you.
The oil filter; a simple yet essential part of any car. Can you change your own? Yes, you can, and it's relatively simple. Also, you can buy the best synthetic oil filters for 2019 very cheaply, and you'd be surprised how simple a job it can be. A fresh air filter will help your car run properly, and efficiently, so you get the best performance and fuel economy. It will also ensure your engine runs cleanly and does not ingest any dangerous particles. There are plenty of videos online showing you how to change the filter on different models, and yours is likely to be among them, so have a look and give it a go!
Among the most important of all the legally required elements of your car are the headlights. Not only do they help you see in the dark, but they help you to be seen by other drivers in adverse conditions. Yet, you can improve the performance and look of headlights by having a look here at the best headlight restoration kits that won't break the bank and make sure you have the right level of light in both cases.
In most examples, these kits don't need any mechanical knowledge as they are mostly cosmetic applications, but they do make a difference, and some of them look surprisingly cool when applied! Have a look now and see how you can enhance your car, and there are many more great items to be found at the site we've linked to, and save yourself some money by learning how to do your own car maintenance.


Some time between April 4th-8th, North Korea will launch a communications satellite into orbit. Unsurprisingly there is huge scepticism being voiced by Japan, South Korea and the United States that the secretive military nation is in fact carrying out a test-launch of the Taepodong-2 ballistic missile system, mounting a "peaceful" satellite to disguise its real intention. If the world's suspicions are correct, if successful, North Korea will have a means to deliver a possible nuclear strike as far as Hawaii or Alaska. Now the North Korean army has warned that if the launch is interfered with, they will attack "major targets" in Japan.
Unfortunately, North Korea has not proven itself to be a particularly "open" nation, so there is huge doubt that one of the nations in the "Axis of Evil" (a phrase coined by George W. Bush in his State of the Union Address on January 29, 2002) is simply deploying a peaceful satellite. N. Korea has long been developing chemical, biological and nuclear weapons, but any attempt by international inspectors to understand the scope of these claims have been unsuccessful. Also, previous rocket tests have provoked international outrage as they are seen as obvious attempts to intimidate neighbouring countries (principally Japan and South Korea) and demonstrated the nation is working on more sophisticated means to increase their military reach.
Tensions are understandably high ahead of the launch, and some sources suggest that could be as early as Saturday (April 4th) as there are indications that fuelling activities are being carried out by Pyongyang. Spy satellite images appear to show there is indeed a satellite attached to the rocket, but the US and regional allies are under no illusions that such a launch would also test ballistic missile technology, violating the UN resolution passed in 2006 in response to the underground nuclear test and repeated missile launches. North Korea can expect severe treatment by the international community should this launch go ahead.
The US and regional allies will push for more sanctions will be put into place, further damaging international relations with North Korea. However, having signed an international space exploration treaty, North Korea appears to be hoping China and Russia will block any sanctions after launch, even though the launch directly violates the UN resolution. Russia has even urged North Korea's neighbours not to take military action against the rocket launch.

From Ken's post, he probably gets all his current events from CNBC and the New York Times. I bet he gets behind Barney Frank on a regular basis.
I wonder what starving North Korean civilians think about this NK 'launch' of a "satellite" & how it might help their future stake?
Why does none of the coverage mention that the technology required to launch a satellite is more complex and difficult to master than the technology behind launching ICBMs? If they can launch a communications satellite then they can probably do the other as well.
And thats the big two letter word Ryan…IF.
The one thing ICBM's and launching a satellite have in common is….a rocket. Which is exactly what this launch is about….testing the rocket. And using the Taepodong-2 as an ICBM is exactly what NK is wanting to do…launching a satellite is of minor concern to them.
it's just one more step towards a world in which *many* nations will have access to nuclear weapons and long range missles.
Is there a country funnier than North Korea? It's like an hyperbole of a villain nation. Pure comedy.
It's sad that people suffer from it tho.
Iraq, Afghanistan, endless huge donations to Israel?
Moronism "made in America" is truly amazing thing!
This is exactly why so may people were in a panic when Sputnik was launched in the 50's. Unfortunately, history seems to be lost on the present generation. Anything that happened more than 20 ears ago seems to be not worth knowing.
I would rather we deal with No.Ko. now, instead of waiting until the job becomes much more difficult. Hope they have the guts to bring it on.
Lastly, no-one in America starves unless they want to.
North Korea barely made a puff of smoke with their puny 1/4 kiloton test blast. The idea that they could nuke someone is quite laughable.
Let them test it. If it has a dangerous trajectory, even if by accident, all the better … if it is just a satellite, the ensuing war would be far more legitimate than the war in Iraq.
… and the problem of North Korea would vanish in a much bigger puff of smoke.
I'm glad that at least someone sees the irony of the biggest owner of WMD's in the world telling other countries that they can't have their own.
This is not irony. Not everyone in the world is responsible enough to have kids — Not everyone in the world is responsible enough to own firearms, and not every country in the world is responsible enough to own WMDs.
You think america is resonsible enough to handle all that? Despite the endless proof against it we see every day? Now THERE's irony.
Was it responsible for America to use lies about a plot to buy yellowcake uranium, a plot that had been entirely foiled 8 years before, as justification for invading Iraq?
Was it responsible for the american government expose one of their own spies, jeopardizing her life in order to punish her husband for exposing the yellowcake fraud?
Is it responsible for americans to kill 10x more of their own people per capita with firearms each year than Canadians do? Canadians own more guns per capita, what's your problem?
america wasn't even responsible enough to have the most basic of financial regulations in place- not giving mortgages to people who can't afford them.
You blindly let your banks severely damage the global economy for quick unsustainable profits, destroying the savings of millions of people … but you think you're responsible enough to handle WMD's????
Are you even aware of current events or do you get all your news from Rush Limbaugh?
I'll bet an ice cold Schmidt that it blows up on the pad.
Ken,would 'puny' 1/4 kiloton weapon be puny if it lands in your neighborhood!!!??? You sound like a very sore sorry man!!!!!
Every once in a while I wish I was an omnipotent deity. This is one of those moments. My actions wouldn't need to conform to any physics or logic.
Just like power politicians and military heads, Gods need to show off. An omnipotent deity could create a stone which is too heavy for him to lift, and then he would lift it…. But I'd do something better than that: I'd make it so that nuclear fission beyond a certain energy output simply doesn't work.
Imo, nobody can handle WMDs… and they don't come in "friendly" and "hostile" varieties.
ruf represents everything that is terrifying about the US, you think no one in your country starves unless they choose it? Be real. And you think the US is "responsible" with nukes, you're the only people in history who ever dropped one on an enemy, that is reason enough to say the US should not be allowed to have any.
I think nobody should be allowed them, fullstop.
What do you mean only americans can launch satellites? I thought Japan,Russia,China,ESA and NASA launches them.
Not only Americans, tens of countries does have them.
I mean seriously have you been living cold war times?
I've been reading all about this N-K launch and yes I believe it's not satellite launch, they just want to show what they're capable of. It's their choice to get into more trouble with West, if they want war they probably get it pretty easily. More sanctions are needed for that tiny communist country, to learn how to behave in the modern world.
North Korea's antics are childish.
The problem is the US cant put pressure on them and no who can seems to care for doing so.
All this is really good for right now is the US arguing to expand development on its missile defense systems in response… which, in a roundabout way, could work nicely.
If Russia and China don't want to see us enhance and extend our missile defense systems, they should do what they can to reign in the little dictator who is our primary excuse for doing so.
@Dragster, I could only hope that A.Q. Kahn supplied blueprints for an atomic bomb. If it's similar to the one supplied to Libya (who have since turned them over to IAEA folks), it appears to be based on China's first bomb (detonated in 1964) and is about the size of a small truck & weighs many, many tons. It would need a Saturn V to deliver this to US soil. And while NKs first and only test was a low yield (under 10 kT), it is probably too heavy to even make it to Japan on its current rocket. Miniaturization of a warhead is even more complex than building a device in the first place (ask the Chinese). And the rocket itself doesn't have a stellar record when it comes to being flightworthy, much less able to deliver any payload. But these are North Korean tests, and they appear willing to keep trying to improve their weapons and rockets for their own use or to sell to the highest bidder. I've also read that a small contingent of engineers from Iran will be on hand (I wonder why?). @ Frank Glover: I doubt they know.
I don't believe for a moment that North Korea really would declared war on Japan if their missile was shot down. What does N.K. have to bring to the table?
Old T-55's and outdated MIG's? A navy that can't even reach the other coast? Kim Jong Ill is a joke.
Don't forget that across the barbed wire from their Northern mud hole is some of the most valuable real estate in Asia today.
North Korean artillery (missiles and cannon, such as they are) can be in a position to cause several billion dollars worth of damage to south Korea before we can formulate a decent response.
That the north would be trounced in the aftermath is not as big a problem to the US as preventing the loss of life and property from another war.
I think that N.Korea is caught between wanting to appear powerful and dreading the shoot down their missile as proof of the western nations advanced abilities with missile defense.
It would totally upstage their show… and in their mind that's worth destroying a city or two.
Of course no one can be trusted with the lethal combination of WMD and long range missiles… but some are far less trustworthy than others.
The US does not need nukes nor does anyone else- as we all know they are a ticking time bomb.
A North Korea with Nukes on the top of a ICBM- this would even be worse.
I think that this missile will be shot down, perhaps by the Japanese. They will say that it was off course and headed toward Tokyo.
Nukes are to protect ones self from others- does anyone out there really wish to take over North Korea? Not the Americans.
And I agree- I would rather go to the celestial realm knowing that it was a comet that took me out.
Please note: This was just on the News and it was a Hoax. Sorry. The News said it was a Hoax. It's a Hoax… Don't worry!
It's a Hoax. Dont worry.
Every sovereign nation has a right to a satellite launch capability.
There seems to be a lot of confusion here about the satellite collision.
There are computers that search for that sort of thing, but this collision was not detected because the odds of the two impacting were calculated to be too low.
Given enough 1-in-100,000-chance-of-impact scenarios, one of them will turn up with an impact. Even if 1 in 100,000 is too low for concern.
America. And today new players are on the field, and many say America is wrong..because they know their way isn't right either. NK is a threat to that region, Japan and South Korea know it…and even China..[they have been kind of quite about it]. NK is just a very bad actor..plain and simple. And yet no one is willing to stand up against it, or willing to say anything bad about NK. I see a very bad thing about to happen in the future…America was the first to use the 'bomb' to end a war. But I think America will not be the first to use the 'bomb' to start a war. This I see happening by one of these 'bad actors'. And the world will turn a blind eye before this event…as they did before World War Two.
Interesting points…however I would take issue with the sourcing of your statistical finger data. Don't forget that the UN sanctioned mission under resolution 84 was comprised of many nations, from Canadians, Aussies, and Kiwis, to Ethiopians, Greeks, and Turks to name a few. As well, let's keep some accurate perspective here. There has been enough ridiculous propaganda providing the foundation for silly scenarios and drum beating. You are correct in identifying responsibility broadly. Isn't it time to move on from War on Terror fallacies concerning fighting rogue states and insane dictators. Kim Jung-il has done quite the favour for US anti missile technology. Peace out.
In light of the growing orbital debris problem and the threat it poses to mankinds future in space… I don't think so.
A nation intent on launching a satellite should be able to track it, should be able to avoid hitting existing satellites, and should have built in countermeasures against it becoming a new source of high speed space junk.
To that end they should at least disclose the general nature of the vehicle and its mission plan (number of orbits, activities, means for decommissioning, etc…).
North Korea has not proven they are capable of doing any of that, and I don't think their right to threaten Japan by putting a shot across its bow trumps everyone elses right to use space for science and commerce.
Accept the Fact that this was a Media Hoax. It's a massive hoax. It even said on the News it was a Hoax.
I worked in Seoul,S.Korea for 2 years 15years ago. I find out from many the people they are scared of N.Korea, not from the surface but from the elaborate tunnel systems they created under the DMZ and into S,K. The N.K. solders have dugged tunnels by hand for many years, and made many large caverns for soldiers then move on. Each cavern holds 500 soldiers and supplies and there are about 1000 or more of these quite comfortable caverns. The soldiers dig more south and create more caverns then move the solders more south. The geology and N.K. knowledge of the abiliity to dig and be silent and to escape detection by current technology to find these thousands of tunnels makes S.K. very nervous. A low estimate has 200,000 living in tunnels under the DMZ and into S.K. The N.K. soldiers are very loyal and they and their families are the only ones well fed. The soldiers practice day after day in tunnels in N.K. to have as many soldiers move as fast as possible out of the tunnels after the pre-planned exit points are punched out by equipment already in place in over 1000 places under SK. This tunneling military project has been going on for decades and the underground caverns have moved further south under S.K.about 1KM every 5 years , so N.K is very patient. Whenever the time comes when the N.K. soldiers are ordered to break throuogh and do their pre-planned missions to destroy and disrupt communications and logistics of S.K. soldiers, I don't know what any outside forces are capable of doing about this before N.K soldiers destroys S.K. infrastructure as I believe S.K soldiers may not be able to stop N.K. invasion from frontal and from under.
Well said. Bring them to table. However, they would not be the first nation to conceal mission data and have problematic variables in re-entry trajectories for spent equipment. In terms of perceived threats, that has more to do with the nature of strategic geopolitics. DPRK has a history of using these events for bargaining leverage as well as technological advancement. A tactic used by many nations. All things being equal.
My response to Max continues. The right to launch is simply that. Ceteris paribus.
Point of fact: Nukes (ie nuclear weapons) have never been used by anybody, and have never been dropped on anbody.
They wouldn't be the first to have a military satellite flying under peaceful colors. That being what it is, the dangers of spaceflight are still a problem to contend with, and all nations try to do the best they can (even on secret launches).
Other nations choose their launch locations and orbital trajectories to avoid crossing over populated areas.
Other nations properly announce their launches to reduce tensions with their neighbors.
Other nations don't threaten total war in the event they lose an experimental launch payload.
Even in the US, manned craft are subject to self destruction or interception if they pose a threat to anyone on the ground. The same holds true for Russia and the EU. We all know these are dangerous machines and treat them with the according respect.
How does North Korea deserve rights and respect above everyone else?
Just because they are waving a nuke around?
Just maybe an accidentally fired Hellfire missile from a rogue Predator just happens to meet up with Taepodong-2 while it's fueling on the pad. Oops, back to the six party talks to quell the situation. Problem solved.
Japan was far more powerful in their home islands than the Allied forces thought. Such information was not released due to the US wanting Japan to be on the West side during the Cold War and to keep hard feelings against Japan at the minimum. For many years, it was thought Japan was finished militariy, and dropping of the bombs was not necessary and cruel, but, this info was not released until after the Cold War was over. Japan still had plenty of fight left and the US still did not fight the heart of the Japanese armies and the Japanese had plenty of deadly surprises for the Allied forces.
In August9,1945, the Soviet Union advanced south into Japanese occupied Manchuria (at the time, a province of China, now part of China again) and into Korea, the Japanese only had left their lowest grade forces there and sent their best divisions to defend their home Islands. The results of the Soviet steamroller against weak Japanese divisions will probably be the annex of Manchuria and Korea.
The results of the invasions of Japan would have been at least 1 million American casualties, the destruction of over 2million Japanese soldiers and the deaths of more than 20million Japanese civilians. There was some talk found out later in the freedom of information act, should the US be taking too much casualties during the invasion of Japan, they would have invited the Soviet Union to send their troops in the fight against Japan in there home Islands. Many people did not realize it at the time, or don't know about it today , Stalin was much into real estate, his blood for land. Stalin would have wanted some real-estate for his armies loses, so the Japanese Island of Hokkaido would probably have been annexed by the Soviet Union.
Because the genie was out of the bottle for the atomic then hydrogen or Nuclear bombs, the effects on humans would not really been known. A critial situation occurred in Cuba Oct 1962- IMHO, nuclear weapons would have been used by the US and the Soviet Union because these were thought to be just ' super large explosives'. Over 100 million would have been killed, and only then, would the results on humans and the effects on the fallout would have been known.. Humans are curious, and would not have believed using a nuclear device would have been far more damaging than thought unless they had proof. Aug6 and Aug9,1945 was that proof,without that proof, there would have been a nuclear war in Oct 1962.
The world would be a far different place today and some of you may not be alive to read this as it was found later on there was far more Soviet nuclear weapons in Cuba than what was told to the public for many years. There was no doubt the Soviets would have used many of their short ranged nuclear tipped missiles to strike major cities in western Europe in Oct1962 in order to prevent western European countries from entering the Soviet Union in order to occupy it when the smoke clears.
Because sane Nations knows the dangers of using nuclear weapons, will the not so sane feel the same way?!
I do not buy the space debris argument. Nobody is doing a good job on that front; just look at the recent U.S./Russian satellite collision.
If anything the accident was a perfect example of what happens when nations do not openly cooperate in space.
Proof that ones supposed right to launch can quickly violate someone elses right to safe passage, resulting in an international tragedy that makes no one happy.
The lead paragraph regarding the North Korean missile launch sounds like the plot of a "24" episode. Who are the villains that Jack Bauer will have to torture to ascertain the true mission purpose, and how many blind alleys and misadventures will be encountered before the finale? Is life imitating art? No matter the outcome, this matter will no doubt inspire at least one scriptwriter.
More like the sequel to Team America: World Police.
Once they launch enough rockets we'll get use to it and go back to ignoring them. Nothing to see here move along people.
yes ,we can ignore them until they launch and land one 8800km westward, then we may have to say something and ask them to please stop……….
Somehow I don't think a stern letter of condemnation will keep a two ton canister of hydrazine from landing in some poor Japanese mans back yard.
Well they launched it, but apparently (an despite claims from NK to the contrary), it failed to put the satellite into orbit, with the rocket + payload coming down into the Pacific.
The thing is, that under developed countries with nuclear capability, and in particular North Korea (and in the future, Iran), have no intention of using them because they know it would mean their own destruction.
What the nuclear weapons give them is a place on the 'top table' in world affairs. Other countries have to take them seriously. In the case of North Korea – it means sanctions dropped, and the promise to leave them be – look the other way while Kim Jong Ill and his son continue to brutalise an entire nation.
The fact is – that nuclear capability has averted war since the end of the second world war. India and Pakistan have been forced to back off from war. The US and the Soviets would probably have gone to war in the 1960's. The threat of mutual annihilation forces an uneasy standoff. This is what North Korea is aiming to achieve.
So the NORK rocket went off as planned.
Was it for the purposes of launching a 'peaceful' sattelite? Ask anyone who has had the luck to escape that country whether the N. Koreans can be trusted.
Maybe the Norks should unclench their fists!
So much for B. Hussein and Hillary's Smart, Tough Diplomacy!
Now I'm curious to find out how long it'll take the US Navy to retrieve as much of the debris as possible for analysis? I'm sure their bringing in all their resources for some sort of search. What was the 'payload', after all?
The axis of evil? wow… that was the dumbest thing I ever heard back in 2002. It just keeps on sounding more and more ridiculous. For everyone, please, talk about international politics that affect everyone, but leave out such stupid catch-phrases that were employed for the sole purpose of inspiring a people to unit against a common enemy based on moral points of views. If they really are evil, you will serve your purpose way better in showing why its true, rather than rallying people by quoting such mind-numbingly stupid names.
But they may gamble that the US (and the much more accessible South Korea and Japan [the latter already knowing what it is to be on the wrong end of these things]) will not risk even *one* such weapon possibly getting through, even though we can deliver a devastating response.
And the beliefs of the Iranian leadership may be more inclined to accept such a response, compared to the very secular North Korea, to advance those radical beliefs. The US could survive the loss of one or two cities if it had to. Israel, to put it mildly…not so much.
I don't think it is so much about the policy of MAD being (or not being) applicable anymore. It is that states like North Korea may fail, but there nukes would still be around. Look at Pakistan, that country is barely making it right now and they have nukes. I think they'll be alright but nobody, knows.
This is how NK works – commit a few provocative acts, piss the world off, agree to talks, come to the bargaining table and get paid for disbanding such programs. Then fire it up again in a year or two's time and repeat cycle. Remember their supposed nuclear tests only a year or two ago? And the transgression before that? And the one before that? They get paid by the world not to act up – the equivalent of buying your kid a toy every time they cry. This sort of handout is the pretty much only thing stopping their entire population from starving to death. So what to do? Of course, you can't just not give aid – that punishes the population, not the leader. On the other hand, more handouts doesn't exactly discourage their petty politicking. I don't have the answer, that's for damn sure.
@ Astrofiend: I was looking forward to your take on this issue. Your posts are on topic, intelligent, and well thought out. One small issue with your last post. You said: 'Of course, you can't just not give aid – that punishes the population, not the leader.' From what I've seen and read, most of this food aid goes to the military and the government politicians to prop up the regime. The civilian population proceeds to die from famine and neglect by their own country's policies. Of course I, like you, don't have the answer. But this situation will only get worse if left to keep festering. Sanctions and-or aid won't deter this regime.
Did anyone check the co-ordinates they provided in the initial "press release". It was pretty specific, did any amateur astronomers actually check? I prefer real data rather than speculation.
Secondly, any country has a right to launch satellites, even countries I don't like! Why worry and stress about it? Wait until they do something wrong, then respond to that, launching (or trying to launch a satellite) isn't hurting anyone.
This noise is problematic. Even if one of these rockets can only make it as far as downtown Tokyo, that's far enough to touch off WW III (much more than anything Dub and his cohorts could gas up about Iraq, Iran, etc.). It wouldn't take a functional atomic device; all that would be required is a dirty radioactive or biological bomb that would kill millions. No problem…right?
North Korea is too much like that weird kid in school who nobody wanted to, or could, talk to (except a few others of his ilk). This weird kid has gotten himself a gun, and right now, he's flashing it around to impress the other kids. He'll be shooting, and killing, soon. He's got nothing to lose.
NK is very patient, this is what's lacking in western countries. This weirdo country will do some sword rattlling, the western countries will start to make complaints and most likely give them more food to shutup. Then NK will just listen to what western nations are saying, and there again will be in-fighting with western nations what to do about NK then forget. NK will just wait, do somemore sword rattling, the western countries will do their usual complaints, then forget about NK. NK will do what it will do when and where they will do what they will do.
soldiers do 'manuvers' underground, patiently digging more passageways, caverns, and thousands of pre-planned entry points inside of SK, underground.!!! The whole tunneling pattern moves south 1KM every 5 years, so NK is very patient. NK will do so rattle sabering some more then quiet again. NK will wait until the world is focused on a serious natural disaster like the Indonesian Tsunami or a meteor strike hitting a major city then invade from underground at thousands of exit points inside SK to disrupt the SK military logistics and destroy SK communications. I hope the SK military can hold NK because this 'invasion' will be such as the world has never seen before, mostlly from underground then from conventional frontal assault. This senario may not happen for 20 years,10 years or sooner, but, they will invade when the western countries tires of NK sword rattling and forgets about them to take care of a major natural disaster. Whatever NK show and tell missile launch with a dirty bomb will do will just make things more difficult for forces against NK. Unfortunately for the not-so patient western countries, there's nothing we can legally do about it now.
In regards to Star Gazers account and prediction to militaristic actions by North Korea on South Korea, try this scenario on for size.
North Korea will attack South Korea hard and fast, dumping and throwing everything they have at them. This will undoubtedly prompt attack from the United States, which will "blow the hell" out of North Korea. After three days of intense fighting on both sides, North Korea will surrender.
What does the United States do every time, after every war, to any country we attack?
In my honest opinion, North Korea will prompt then disengage after being mercilessly attacked. Then sit back and relax as the United States comes in and rebuilds their already appallingly impoverished country. Sure, after the reconstruction they will be under scrupulous watch by any and all countries involved, especially the United States.
Small price to pay to be brought up from poverty.
I thought this was a site by ASTRONOMERS, for ASTRONOMERS?? I think this is supposed to be a forum to discuss astronomy, space, the joy of gazing into the heavens and wondering at the beauty of it all. There are sites for political discussions–how about we keep this site on topic?
All the rhetoric and saber rattling I've read in the previous posts does nothing to promote the science, the profession and the hobby of astronomy, and certainly does not promote the worldwide "family" who want to put the news on the back burner for awhile.
This site ( and the others like it) should be used by all to bridge our differences and come together in our mutual interest. Perhaps with more tolerance and attempts at understanding, there will be less need for the posturing and vitriol that seems to dominate the world stage.
I realize there will be some who will accuse me of over simplifying or being naive–that is fine. I would just like to be able to read and learn about my hobby without the insults and ill will.

Q: How to replicate RedBot's errors? RedBot is telling me that that I have a couple of serious errors in some of my
assets:

*

*The response status is different when content negotiation happens.

*An If-None-Match conditional request returned a 404 status. RED hasn't checked other
  aspects of Content-Negotiation because of this.

I would like to debug this, but I can't duplicate RedBot's errors.  When I try, I get this:

Bank of America (BoA) wins a "crypto storage platform" patent in enterprise accounts. Moreover, Amazon wins a "cryptography and distributive data storage" patent.
As technology advances, financial transactions involving cryptocurrency have become more common. For some enterprises, it may be desirable to aggregate cryptocurrency deposited by customers in an enterprise account.
We've got under 50 patents in the blockchain/distributed ledger space. While we've not found large-scale opportunities, we want to be ahead of it. However, we want to be prepared.
Meanwhile, the other firm Amazon receives just two patent awards. In April, they file their first on adding security to customers' signatures. They were looking to guard the digital signatures integrity and encrypting communications.
Amazon decides to base the encryption system build on a structure- Merkle tree. This structure develops by hashing pair data until there remains a single hash- Merkle root. The motto of the project is to safely and efficiently validate large sections of data.
Their second patent was seen in December 2015. This patent aims to store data using a grid encoding technique. Moreover, data will get in shards and then gets groups together and distribute accordingly. These techniques are purposefully for extending grids relating data storage systems.

Q: using a graphical application on Ubuntu 18.04 with root rights Since I've upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 I am no-longer able to do something like:
sudo su -

gparted

because now root can't access Display:0 and I've not found a way round.
Does someone knows how to get around that problem?
With gparted it isn't that bad but I use some other programmes where it doesn't works at all, as I have not got another program for doing the same. I don't want to start all as root, because I would know how to do this.

A: There is kdesudo, gsudo (I think), and some others.
Or you can copy this to ~/bin/xsudo
#!/bin/bash

inner() {
    su  - "$user" -c "xauth list" |
        grep "$(echo "$display" |
                cut -d ':' -f 2 |
                cut -d '.' -f 1 |
                sed -e s/^/:/ ) " |
        xargs -n 3 xauth add &&
        "$@"
}

if [ "$1" = "---innermode" ]
then
    shift
    user="$1"
    display="$2"
    shift 2
    inner "$@"
else
    self="$0"
    sudo "${self}" ---innermode "$USER" "$DISPLAY" "$@"
fi

A: You can use pkexec to run a GUI application as root.
$ pkexec gparted

Or:
$ pkexec bash
# gparted

pkexec uses PolicyKit for authorization, so you might need to get a PolicyKit in place to allow your user to run commands using pkexec. See the man page for more details on authorization.

A: If you are logged into a X session as a regular user who has sudo rights, then simply opening a terminal and using sudo gparted will work just fine.
The su command behaves differently, and while it does allow you to become another user or run a specific command as another user, it does prevent connecting to your X server.

Fun Historical Tidbits on Makeup
The origin of our use of cosmetics can be traced back 5,000 years to ancient Babylon in which it seems that they frequently painted their faces with lead, used henna to colour their nails, and for lipstick used semi-precious stones that were crushed and smeared on their lips.
The Romans and ancient Egyptians used cosmetics that contained mercury and often lead.
Cleopatra had lipstick made from ground up cochineal beetles added to ant's eggs as a base.
Egyptian woman also used henna for colour, to provide the shimmer to the lipstick, fish scales were also used.
The ancient Egyptians used a purple-red colour that was squeezed from Iodine and used to redden lips, this eventually became known as "the kiss of death".
When King Tut's tomb was opened in 1922, cosmetics were found inside that were still fragrant and perfectly usable.
In Roman times, sheep's fat was used as a base to colour lips.
The first recorded use of the word lipstick (lippa sticka) is from approximately 1000 A.D.
Many historians give credit to the ancient Arab cosmetologist and physician, Abu al-Qasim al-Zahrawi (936–1013), (Arabic: أبو القاسم بن خلف بن العباس الزهراوي) for inventing the first solid lipsticks, which he described in his writings as perfumed sticks rolled and pressed in special molds.
In Japan, pigment for rouge was made primarily from safflowers, and applied to the lips, cheeks, and fingernails. Like face powder, a light application was regarded as a mark of refinement. Later on in the 1800's however, there was a fad for heavier application of lipstick for an iridescent effect.
During the era of Queen Elizabeth 1st, it was popular to paint the face white and the lips red. When acting in Shakespeare's plays no women were allowed to work as actors. Female roles were taken by young lads who wore women's clothes and elaborate makeup. The lead content in the white makeup led to many early deaths by boy actors.
In 1653, lipsticks faced opposition from Thomas Hall, who led a movement proclaiming that painting of faces was the 'Devil's work'.
In 1770, the English parliament passed a law stating that any woman who seduced a man into marriage by wearing makeup could be tried as witch!
During the French Revolution, wearing lipstick could get you killed! You might have been seen as sympathizing with the aristocracy.
In the 19th century prostitutes were the main users of makeup and Queen Victoria publicly declared makeup improper, vulgar and acceptable only for use by actresses.
In 1884, the first modern lipstick was introduced by perfumers in Paris. It was wrapped in silk paper and made with deer tallow, castor oil and beeswax.
During the late 1890's the Sears Roebuck catalogue offered rouge for lips.
Up until the 19th century, the pigment cochineal was used to colour lipsticks until synthetics were introduced in the latter part
of the 19th century.
In 1904, a perfumed lip salve would have cost you 25 cents.
By 1908, it was okay for women to apply lipstick at the table during lunch at a restaurant. It was not okay to apply lipstick at dinner.
In 1915, Maurice Levy of the Scovil Manufacturing
Company invented the metal tube container for lipstick, which had a small lever at the side of the tube that lowered and raised the lipstick. Levy called his invention the "Levy Tube".
In 1923, James Bruce Mason Jr. of Nashville, Tennessee patented the first swivel-up tube. This packaging made it easy for manufacturers to package and sell.
In 1928, a beauty parlour with a full line of lipsticks was installed in a New Jersey sanatorium. Putting on lipstick is used as a therapeutic technique even today!
During the 1920s, the flapper style came into fashion, which embraced dark eyes, red lipstick, red nail varnish and the suntan
by Coco Channel.
Lipsticks made a comeback in World War 11 with the popularity of its use in the movie industry. It became commonplace for women to "put their face on".
Except in Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler told women "that face painting was for clowns and not for women of the master race".
In 1930s, Hazel Bishop introduced the kiss-proof lipsticks.
In the 1930s, Max Factor invented lip gloss to be used on movie actors, however, it was soon worn by regular consumers
Many lipsticks contain fish scales, or rather, the "shimmery" substance of fish scales called "pearl essence". Pearl essence is
obtained primarily from herring and is one of many by-products of large-scale commercial fish processing.
Did you know that according to a 1996 survey by Shiseido cosmetics; 87% of American women admit to having left traces of
lipstick in unwanted places.
In Japan, in the Geisha world, the shape of the lipstick, whether it is just the bottom lip, the top lip, or both lips. How thin or full it is applied can signify how old the woman is, and how far along she is in her training. Whether or not she is a Hangyoku, a Maiko, or a Geisha.
During the Chinese festival of Qi Qiao Jie young women throw
make-up on the roof.
The average woman uses 2 – 4 kg of lipsticks in a lifetime
80% of American woman regularly wear lipstick.
32% of women surveyed during a 1998 poll claimed they owned more than 20 lipsticks.
Lipstick is one of the most commonly shoplifted items.
Lipstick sales go through the roof, especially in the time of recession.
In our era, lipsticks have expanded into the use of lip pencils, lip glosses, lip plumpers etc. But the lipstick tube is still number one.
It's a bug and a feature

So much misformation is being published right now about Cochineal, I thought a post that explains what it is, how it's made, why it's relatively harmless, and why I support labeling but oppose a ban, might be useful.
What is Cochineal, anyway?
Cochineal is, indeed, a food additive derived from an insect. Or, more properly, the stuff we call cochineal is a chemical extract of carminic acid bodies of squished female scale insects. (No actual bug "parts" should be left in the dye.)
Where is Cochineal used?
On food and cosmetics labels, cochineal may have many different names: cochineal, carmine, carminic acid, Natural Red 4, or E120. You may be surprised where you find it–Campari, sausage, and artificial crab are some unexpected foods that use cochineal for more intense colors. Many yogurts and juices also use cochineal, and most lipsticks and blushes.
Is Cochineal safe?
A few individuals may be allergic to the compounds produced by these insects, and improved labeling is a good idea.
The FDA is mainly concerned with allergies in making their labeling decision, probably because cochineal has proved non-toxic in lab tests.
What would it mean if we didn't use Cochineal?
Our other choices for red dyes in our foods or cosmetics aren't very appealing. FD&C Red Dye #2, derived from coal tar, is a good example. (Artificial colors are given the prefix FD&C, or Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, since that is the law they are regulated under.)
FD&C Red #40 is the most commonly used other red dye, and is also derived from tar. (And, interestingly, CSPI wants it banned
It would be a great thing if food had less processing, packaging, and added ingredients to make it look good. (Teal Blue food is just Wrong, in my book.) However, the likelihood of that happening is rather low, alas. So keeping cochineal in our range of choices gives us a relatively safe option for food and lip coloring.
More important to me, Cochineal supports subsistence farmers in poor parts of the world. This insect is an important cash crop! From an NPR story about cochineal:
"Even though a full pound of cochineal sells for just $1.30, harvesting the bug earns enough money to feed and clothe a whole family in the impoverished highlands region of Peru. An estimated 40,000 Peruvian families depend on harvesting the bugs —which belong to a class of scale insects — to make a living."
By not rejecting cochineal in your food or makeup, you get to not only support farmers raising their tiny pink cash-cows, you can connect with the rich history of this pigment.
Aztec and Maya peoples of Central and North America used these insects to create rich red colors for textiles for centuries. After Europeans arrived, they excitedly adopted this pigment over their previous one–also made from scale insects!
OMGBUGZINMAIFOODZ! YUCK!
Actually, there's lots of actual bug parts in your food all the time, and the FDA knows and approves of it, Insects happen.
It's part of living on Earth, and we just can't get things sterile, no matter how much we try.
Why not join the rest of the world and start adding insects as a regular part of your diet? They are regularly eaten around the world, and are quite nutritious. Until the Western world decided that bottom feeding shrimp and lobsters were OK, and insects were nasty, nearly everyone ate insects as a regular part of their diet.
Join me in celebrating a sustainable, low-impact protein source!
Or, at least join me in not worrying about a tiny amount of bug-derived compounds in your food.

A Creamy Pasta Bake for Spring.
Mac and cheese gets a makeover. Just in time for swimsuit shopping (also affectionately known around here as the annual Parade of Shame). It's time to start cooking light again, and give your body a break from all that white rice pasta, butter, and double cheese. It's time to kiss bacon good-bye. Hot weather is coming, Babycakes. The beach and poolside beckon. And I am not prepared. Are you?
I've been lax with my downward facing dogs (actually, I'm forbidden to do downward facing dogs these days, but that's another story). My lumbo-pelvic complex is cranky. My core is catnapping. And my biceps need curling. Or something like that. What it basically means is I've got some flab I need to banish. Remember that roll around my middle I call Doris? She's still here. She has not skedaddled. My usual winter weight gain of five hibernation pounds is eight this year.
I could blame those Raspberry Coconut-Almond Bars my husband keeps making (he who can eat cookies and brownies and still sport flat abs). I could blame fructan and fructose, and various unfriendly members of FODMAPs who may be the bottom line bloat culprit in my ongoing emulation of my halcyon pregnancy days (those of you with IBS symptoms despite going gluten-free might want to look into this whole fructose blah blah polyol thing).
But mostly I blame how much time I spend on the iMac. Sitting. Typing. Sitting some more. Social networking. The Internet is an amazing gift. But it is damn hard on the body. I'm vowing to get up and move more frequently. Shake my booty. Feel the burn. Or at least feel some heat.
So just in case you're in the same mood, too. I've made a lighter version of the classic baked mac and cheese.
I used gluten-free penne for the pasta. Organic soy milk and Smart Balance vegan "butter" for the cream sauce. Zucchini and garlic and chives for a flavor boost. And it was fab. Light. Creamy.
Allergic Living magazine is now publishing a US edition. Lucky us! And I am delighted to announce I am a small part of it. The American launch issue is chock full of gluten-free goodness- including my article, Perfect Harmony (featuring three of my gluten-free, dairy-free recipes, including a brand new Carrot Cake recipe with orange frosting, and a new Orange Scented Soda Bread to accompany a light, vegan potato soup), Sloane Miller's Guide to Smart, Safe Dining, kitchen tips from Ming Tsai and Susur Lee, Gluten-Free Girl's Plane Lucky on flying gluten-free, beautiful Spring recipes from Chef Simon Clarke, the latest g-free news from celiac expert Shelly Case, and much more.
How gluten-free cool is that?
By Karina Allrich April 2011.
This fresh as a breeze Spring pasta bake is light and easy, vegan and gluten-free. The creamy non-dairy sauce is kid-friendly and mild. If your kids like a deeper, orange colored sauce, add half a teaspoon of paprika to the sauce and stir until blended.
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Lightly oil the bottom of a large gratin dish or casserole and set aside.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil and partially cook the brown rice penne, till just this side of al dente. You don't want to cook it completely, or you'll end up with mushy pasta, after it bakes.
Meanwhile wash, trim, and slice the zucchini into half moons. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a splash of olive oil. Add the zucchini and minced garlic, season with sea salt, ground pepper, and a dash or two of dried dill or Italian herbs. Stir to coat, and quickly stir-fry, just until the zucchini is tender-crisp. Don't overcook it. It will continue to cook in the oven.
Start making the creamy pasta sauce. Heat the olive in a medium saucepan and add the vegan butter. When the "butter" melts, add in the brown rice flour and stir with a whisk to make a paste. Heat it through, stirring and cooking the paste for a minute. Slowly add in the soy milk (or your milk of choice) and whisk the milk with the paste to combine. Add in the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, sea salt, nutmeg, rice vinegar and mustard (if using). Stir the sauce until it thickens and turn down the heat. If it gets too thick you can thin it with a dash of white wine, or more soy milk.
When the pasta is done, drain it well, and drizzle it with a touch of good olive oil. Pour the cooked penne into a large gratin dish or casserole. Add in the zucchini. Pour the sauce in and gently, very gently, combine the penne, zucchini, and sauce until the penne is coated. Sprinkle the top with fresh snipped chives.
Cover the dish with foil. Bake the penne in the center of a preheated oven for 20 minutes, until heated through and bubbling.
I used organic soy milk in this sauce- and it helps make the sauce rich and creamy. If you cannot tolerate soy, try unsweetened, clean tasting hemp milk, almond milk, or light coconut milk (like So Delicious).
Add 1/4 cup dry white wine to the sauce for a more "grown-up" flavor.
This creamy vegan sauce is also wonderful spooned over hot cooked pasta (if you don't have the time or inclination to bake it), or poured on steamed vegetables, even brown rice.

Nueva Guadalupe es una localidad de origen náhua en El Salvador. Limita al norte con Lolotique y Moncagua; al este con Moncagua; al sur, con Chinameca y al oeste con San Buenaventura.

Las fiestas patronales de Nueva Guadalupe se celebran del 23 al 27 de febrero en honor a la Virgen de Guadalupe.

Historia
Fue fundada en 1838 por el por el Gobernador Político y Militar del departamento de San Miguel coronel colombiano Narciso El Guerrillero Benítez , excombatiente en los ejércitos del Libertador Simón Bolívar, quien, en concepto de segundo jefe del ejército morazanista, sucumbió como un héroe, defendiendo la autonomía de El Salvador en la sangrienta batalla del Espíritu Santo, el 6 de abril de 1839 en el valle "La Esperanza". En el año 1840, por disposición del coronel Benítez, Nueva Guadalupe recibió el título de Pueblo Viejo.

Título de Villa
Desde el año 1838 hasta el 22 de junio de 1856 perteneció al distrito de Chinameca en el departamento de San Miguel y al mismo distrito del departamento de Usulután.

Desde el 22 de junio de 1865 al 14 de julio de 1875 este distrito pasó de nuevo a pertenecer al departamento de San Miguel.

Esta población, que en los documentos del siglo pasado figura con el nombre de Nuevo Guadalupe y no de Nueva Guadalupe, "Obtuvo el título de villa en 1878", según el geógrafo don Guillermo Dawson. En 1890 tenía 1,600 habitantes.

Título de Ciudad
El 2 de diciembre de 1996 le fue otorgado el título de ciudad de Nueva Guadalupe.

Terremoto
Los días 6-7 de mayo de 1951 sucedió uno de los terremotos más fuertes ocurridos en la región oriental de El Salvador, el cual destruyó casi en su totalidad las ciudades de Jucuapa, Chinameca, Alegría y Nueva Guadalupe.

A las 5:02 de la tarde un sismo de 6.2° se deja sentir en El Salvador, causa daños en La Paz, Usulután y San Miguel, la población empieza las labores de rescate por sus mismos medios y 4 minutos después a las 5:06 de la tarde otro sismo considerado réplica, fue de magnitud 5.9° y cayeron más casas de las que habían caído.

Los sismos dejaron 400 muertos, 1100 heridos. 25,000 personas sin hogar fueron trasladados por parte del Comité General Ejecutivo Prodamnificados a San Salvador. Diez días después de la tragedia una mujer fue sacada con vida de entre los escombros de Jucuapa, fue trasladada al Hospital San Juan de Dios, de la ciudad de San Miguel.

Este fenómeno obligó a las autoridades gubernamentales a la reconstrucción total de estas localidades, construyendo viviendas nuevamente para las familias damnificadas. El Gobierno democrático de Juan Domingo Perón (de la República Argentina) donó ayuda alimentaria y sanitaria, y envió médicos que atendieron gratuitamente.

Flora y fauna
La flora del municipio está formada por bosque húmedo tropical. La vegetación predominante son los cafetales distribuidos desde los 450 m.s.n.m. También áreas destinadas para cultivos anuales; entre las especies arbóreas que destacan están: nance, roble, chaparro, conacaste y copinol. La fauna en esta zona es muy variada porque se pueden apreciar aves de diferentes especies de acuerdo a la época del año, como son la codorniz y las golondrinas.

Children's Nonfiction History
Hot on the Trail in Ancient Egypt
by (author) Linda Bailey
History, Time Travel, Ancient Civilizations
Age: 8 to 12
Reading age: 8 to 12
All twins Josh and Emma want to do is get out of the creepy Good Times Travel Agency where their little sister, Libby, has led them. But the peculiar shop owner encourages them to open one of his guidebooks first --- and they suddenly find themselves transported to ancient Egypt! They've barely had time to figure out where they are before Josh is carried away to help build a pyramid for the king. Emma and Libby search everywhere for their brother --- including a crowded market, a banquet and a temple --- until, at last, they're reunited. But after an unlucky encounter with the king's guards, they're accused of being tomb robbers! Will the children manage to finish reading the entire guidebook --- their only way back home --- before they are arrested?
In this re-issue from an award-winning and critically acclaimed series of graphic novels, Linda Bailey has crafted a hilarious adventure story that doubles as a thoroughly researched historical overview of ancient Egypt. The unique perspective of modern children experiencing and interacting with people and events from the past brings history to life, while the factual information, presented as pages from the guidebook, fleshes the story out. Many important themes of ancient Egyptian culture and life are touched on: politics and government, philosophy, women's roles, activities of daily life and celebrations. Bill Slavin's engaging and detailed illustrations are full of physical comedy and fun. There's also a bibliography and three pages of further background about ancient Egypt.
Linda Bailey a jonglé longtemps avec l'idée d'écrire, mais ce n'est qu'après avoir eu ses deux filles qu'elle a lancé sa carrière d'auteure. Elle a écrit des albums, des romans et aussi des livres informatifs. Linda a beaucoup voyagé dans sa vie et ses livres aussi! Certains sont publiés en Chine, en Corée, en Australie, en Grèce, en Pologne et dans de nombreux autres pays.
Linda Bailey has written more than twenty books for children in a number of different genres, including the best-selling Stanley-the-dog series, Toads on Toast, and most recently, If You Happen to Have a Dinosaur (Si jamais tu avais un dinosaure...). Linda has garnered a long list of honours in Canada such as the Ontario Blue Spruce Award, the Atlantic Provinces Hackmatack Award and the Arthur Ellis Award. She lives in Vancouver, BC.
Linda Bailey's profile page
Bill Slavin has illustrated over sixty books for children, including Stanley's Party, Stanley's Wild Ride, Stanley at Sea, Transformed and The Farm Team. He lives in Millbrook, Ontario, with his wife, their cat, two rabbits, five squirrels and a family of cardinals.

Q: How to show entity detail in mvc i try to make when i click button ,pop-up will open and show more datail in it but i have a error. I did not access to server side i mean when i put the breakpoint in c# code (public JsonResult PersonalDetail(int personalId)) ,program do not go there and it show noting
 please help me :)

    @if(Model != null) {

                            Personal Name :@Model.PName

                            Personal Lastname :@Model.PLastname

                            Personal Email : @Model.Email

                            Personal Phone :@Model.Phone

                  }

this is my model and i want to show personal detail in this pop-up

And i use this button for access the pop-up and enter to script
var ShowDetail = function (PersoID) {
        var prsnID = $("#personalDetailModel").val();
        $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "/Personal/PersonalDetail",
            data: { PersoID: prsnID },
            success: function () {

            }
        })
    }

And this is script. So i want to take more detail from PersonalID and i will show it in pop-up
        [HttpPost]
        public JsonResult PersonalDetail(int personalId)
        {

            StorageSystemEntities2 db = new StorageSystemEntities2();

            Personal personal = db.Personal.SingleOrDefault(x => x.PersonalID == personalId);
            PersonalViewModel personalVM = new PersonalViewModel();

            personalVM.PName = personal.PName;
            personalVM.PLastname = personal.PLastname;
            personalVM.PAuthorisation = personal.PAuthorisation;
            personalVM.JobStartDate = personal.JobStartDate;
            personalVM.DOB = personal.DOB;
            personalVM.Email = personal.Email;
            personalVM.Phone = personal.Phone;
            personalVM.ShopName = personal.Shop.SName;
            personalVM.GenderType = personal.Gender.GenderN;
            personalVM.PStatus = personal.PStatus;

            return Json(personalVM, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
        }

A: Its is because the method on front-end doesn't match the method at the backend. What you need to do is to match the parameters name as well. like
data: { personalId: prsnID },

and
public JsonResult PersonalDetail(string personalId)

Also you need to set parameter type to string, because it doesn't by default cast your type into int so change that into string in parameter on server side and cast it in method.


With spring temperatures becoming warmer, Delaware General Health District officials say they are encouraging residents to take precautions against mosquitoes, especially for people returning from Zika-affected areas.
They say that the health district is starting to see people returning from Zika-affected areas who have Zika-like symptoms. Some people have been tested for Zika virus and to date, officials said, no one from Delaware County has tested positive for the disease.
Residents are encouraged to take mosquito precautions, such as wearing mosquito repellent, wearing long sleeves and long pants while outdoors, taking extra care during peak mosquito activity hours (dusk to dawn) and eliminating mosquito breeding sites like standing water pools.
If a resident tests positive for Zika virus, health officials say they will take appropriate prevention/control measures, which may include mosquito fogging and applying larvacide where appropriate to interrupt mosquito breeding, and doing a targeted information campaign to increase prevention efforts and knowledge among communities.
For more information about Zika virus, visit DelawareHealth.org or call the residential services unit at 740-368-1700.

Don't throw out those eclipse glasses. You're going to want to see the next one.
Express-News Data Team July 21, 2017 Updated: Aug. 21, 2017 5:07 p.m.
As expected, today's eclipse was greeted by the continental U.S. with much fanfare, but folks down in Texas were far south of the best view points that stretch from Oregon to South Carolina.
In San Antonio, we saw a roughly 65 percent eclipse, which is still more eclipse than we saw yesterday, but it's nothing to write home about.
In fact, everyone in North America got some slice of the action, as did people in parts of South America, Africa and Europe, according to NASA.
So if you missed today's eclipse, don't feel too bad, because the next one to hit the continental United States will be April 8, 2024 and will be worth the wait for San Antonians. In about seven years, during the next solar eclipse to be seen from North America, San Antonio will sit close to the path of totality - where the full eclipse can be seen. People in the northeast part of the city will see a roughly 90 percent eclipse.
The next solar eclipse is on April 8, 2024. The path of totality will travel up through Mexico - the best view will be had just north of a city called Nazas in the eastern part of Durango - and then just west of San Antonio and Austin but remains a hair east of Dallas.
The best visibility points will travel through Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, New York, Vermont and Maine.
Solar eclipses happen between two and four times a year, according to NASA, but a total solar eclipse happens in the same spot only once every hundred years or so. People in a location near Carbondale, Illinois will get a front-row seat to this year's.
But San Antonians will get only the one shot seven years down the line. If this year is any indication, area hotels and businesses could cash in on the 2024 eclipse, as some shop owners to our north reported ordering shipments that come to them by truck early in anticipation of blocked traffic and solid hotel bookings years in advance.
April 8 is a Monday. Mark your calendar.
The San Antonio Express-News Data Team gives context to complex issues impacting the city and state.

We Basically Already Know How 'Big Brother' 21 Will End
by Martha Sorren
Monty Brinton/CBS
Fans all saw it coming, but now it's pretty much official. Thanks to Cliff and Nicole's decision to keep Holly instead of Tommy, there's gonna be a showmance in the final three, and Michie will probably win Big Brother 21. He wanted confetti to fall on his shoulders when he left the BB house, and now, he may well get it.
Cliff foolishly believed that Michie would honor their Final 2 deal, so he pushed Nicole into keeping Holly. He said he believed that Tommy would take Nicole to thhe Final 2, so he apparently thought that he had a better chance at winning with the showmance (???). Anyone who has watched even a minute of this show knows that showmances choose each other pretty much every time. Cliff probably would have been Michie's choice for Final 2 if Holly had been voted out, but alas. Now Michie casts the sole vote this week, and it's between Cliff and Holly. On the show, Cliff still thinks he has a chance, because he still thinks Michie will evict his girlfriend over Cliff. Wild. But Michie made it clear to Holly and to the Diary Room that he is voting to keep Holly.
The Veto ceremony takes place on Thursday, Sept. 19, so none of this is official yet. But there's a 99.9 percent chance that Michie is going to take himself off the block with the Veto and then cast the sole vote to evict Cliff. It will then be Nicole, Michie, and Holly in the Final 3.
Not evicting Holly when they could have hurt Nicole's chances as well. With Tommy there, either Tommy or Cliff could have taken Nicole to Final 2. Now, she'll be on her own. The only way she can get to Final 2 is if she wins two HoH competitions herself. Michie and Holly have a much better chance because they know they'll take each other. Only one of them has to win.
And, let's face it, Michie is a competition beast. He's won so many HoHs and Vetoes and even a luxury comp this summer. He will probably win the final HoH as well and he'll get to choose to take Holly with him to Final 2. Once he's sitting up there with Holly, the Jury will have to select a winner between the two of them.
Now, the Jury could decide to be bitter. All the people who Michie backstabbed or evicted could choose to give Holly the win out of spite. But this cast is also filled with superfans of the show who know that you have to recognize good game play. For example, Tommy was impressed with Michie's blatant lying, even though it got Tommy evicted. He could see the move for what it was — smart strategy.
Next to Holly, Michie has way more competition wins and has made way bigger moves in the game. He is the obvious winner. Holly did win a few of her own comps, but she didn't win as many or make as many plays. She mostly rode along with Michie as he climbed to the top, and that may ding her chances in the end. Of course, bitter Juries have bitten players like Michie in the butt before, so it's not a sure thing that he'll win. But of the remaining players, his odds seem the strongest.
As for Nicole? She's pretty much doomed unless she gets herself into the Final 2 on her own. If she does manage to do that, then she definitely deserves the win — just as long as she's smart enough not to take Michie with her.

We took our Me and Mine family photos this year at Drusillas, which is where our July photo last year was taken too, and we've changed a little! Sam has a bigger beard, both the kids are taller and Arlo looks like a little boy instead of a toddler! Hello Kitty hasn't changed a bit though…!
I had a lovely break from normality in Israel (Here's a bit about my trip to Tel Aviv, I'll try and get a post about the Dead Sea up at some point!) and also managed to hit my target of reading 40 books this year two months early! I did quite a lot of de-cluttering at home and still have a lot left to do till I'm done! I am also trying to get to terms with realising that my Blepharitis just isn't going away, I had an appointment with my optometrist at the start of the month who said it's a chronic condition and to learn to live with it, washing my eyes with baby shampoo daily. I wasnt convinced that's a good idea and have since found a lot of helpful facebook groups and am trying all sorts of more natural things. I've hardly been wearing makeup because my eyes are so sore, and they're so itchy too that it makes me really irritable and snappy… but that's all a bit depressing!
Sam loved having some one on one time with the kids when I was away (Well, he says he did but I think he realised quite how testing they can be at times!) and he's also attempting to grow his hair long enough for a man-bun but still with shaved sides… which is… interesting! He's still cracking on with his Ketogenic diet, I gave up on holiday and then sort of forgot to start again, though I did see good results for the three weeks I did it!
Athena is obsessed with drawing and writing, and can always be found with a pencil in her hand. We've started to do some more grown up crafting on the rare times we find ourselves Arlo-free, and although she is incredibly mess she loves making things! She's been working really hard at school with her reading and writing, but desperately needed that half term week to recuperate!
Arlo is as testing as ever, he can go from super sweet to irate, angry and screaming in about three seconds flat. The thing that seems to cause him to most trouble at the moment is being given a choice in something, we try and stick to 'this or that' but he always wants something that's not on offer and if he doesn't gt his way in 3 seconds or less he screams and goes mental! I really hope he grows out of it soon! His language has come on leaps and bounds though over the last few weeks which is always amazing. I think he's grown at least three inches too, hes gone up a shoe size for sure! Maybe he will turn out to be tall after all!
And just because I love this perfectly imperfect photo, a family selfie in the haunted maze last week! Sam took the kids out trick or treating tonight and they had a blast, and both came home with their little bucket full of treats!
Got to love a trip to Drusillas. It felt like I used to live there!
