Methionine is an amino acid. Amino acids are the building blocks that our bodies use to make proteins. Methionine is found in meat, fish, and dairy products. It plays an important role in the many functions within the body.
Methionine by commonly taken by mouth to treat liver disorders and viral infections along with many other uses. But there is limited scientific research that supports these uses.
In acetaminophen poisoning, methionine prevents the breakdown products of acetaminophen from damaging the liver. It may also act as an antioxidant and help to protect damaged tissues.
Acetaminophen (Tylenol) poisoning. Research shows that taking methionine by mouth seems to be effective for treating acetaminophen poisoning. Treatment should begin as quickly as possible but must start within 10 hours of acetaminophen overdose.
Breast Cancer. Eating higher amounts of methionine may be linked to a lower risk of breast cancer.
Colon cancer. Eating a diet rich in methionine and folate, a type of B vitamin, seems to help reduce the chance of colon cancer. This seems to be especially true for people with a family history of colon cancer and people who drink large amounts of alcohol.
Neural tube birth defects. Women who eat more methionine during pregnancy seem to have a lower risk of neural tube birth defects.
Hot flashes. Early research suggests that taking methionine doesn't decrease hot flashes in postmenopausal women.
Methionine is LIKELY SAFE when taken by mouth in amounts commonly found in foods. It is POSSIBLY SAFE when taken by mouth or given intravenously (by IV) under the supervision of a healthcare professional. In some people, methionine may cause headache, heartburn, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, or drowsiness.
Don't treat yourself with methionine. It is POSSIBLY UNSAFE to use methionine by mouth or intravenously to self-medicate. Too much methionine can cause brain damage and death. Methionine can increase blood levels of homocysteine, a chemical that may cause heart disease. Methionine might also promote the growth of some tumors.
Children: Methionine is LIKELY SAFE for children when given by mouth in amounts commonly found in foods. It is POSSIBLY SAFE when given by IV, but only under the supervision of a healthcare professional. Methionine is POSSIBLY UNSAFE when given by IV into infants who are also receiving parenteral nutrition (nutrition through the vein).
Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Methionine is LIKELY SAFE when taken by mouth in amounts commonly found in foods. But there is not enough information about the safety of taking methionine in larger doses than those commonly found in foods. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.
"Hardening of the arteries" (atherosclerosis): There is some concern that methionine might make atherosclerosis worse. Methionine can increase blood levels of a chemical called homocysteine, especially in people who don't have enough folate, vitamin B12, or vitamin B6 in their bodies, or in people whose bodies have trouble processing homocysteine. Too much homocysteine is linked to an increased risk for diseases of the heart and blood vessels.
We currently have no information for METHIONINE Interactions.
For acetaminophen (Tylenol) poisoning: 2.5 grams of methionine every 4 hours for 4 doses.

Purrfectly Odd: Iran Wants To Launch A Persian Cat Into Space
After allegedly launching a monkey into space and landing it alive, Iran is now said to be considering sending a more cute and fluffy test subject into zero-g: A cat.
By Kit Eaton 1 minute Read
But I'm not as crazy as Iran's rocket scientists who are planning on sending a cat into space.
–Kit Eaton, with apologies to T.S. Eliot.
Iran's space program is all kinds of controversial, not least because (as with North Korea's space rocketry) the same technology needed to send a capsule containing a craft into orbit and land it back on Earth is more or less the same tech you'd need to fire, oh, I don't know… a nuclear weapon. The country caused a minor scientific furor earlier this year when it claimed to have launched a monkey into orbit and recovered it alive, even though before and after photos may have shown a different capsule and possibly a different monkey. Now the nation is pushing ahead with plans to develop ever-more sophisticated rocket technology in preparation for a launch of an Iranian astronaut by 2018. As part of the development phase, it needs to send more living subjects aloft, and it's now thinking of sending not a dog, chimp, or common monkey into the blue: It's mulling sending a Persian cat.
This is a two birds/one stone scenario, of course. If you can get as persnickety and aloof animal as a cat into space and bring it back alive and not overly hissed-off, that will generate all sorts of useful biological and scientific data to help build better rockets. This wouldn't be the first cat to be launched, after all–France has tried before. And also it's a Persian cat, which is nice PR because Iran was called Persia until 1980. There's no information if Iran plans to trail a wobbly rainbow pattern through the sky in the path of the capsule.
But this is the nation that's been caught embarrassingly fibbing about its technology through really, really bad photoshopping. So who knows if a Persian cat will ever orbit above your head?

Q: Clipping a filmstrip in png format (Delphi 2010) I have a filmstrip of images in png format like this:

I'd like to know how to clip each of the images and put these images in a TImageList control, always preserving the transparency.
[EDIT]
Yes, at designtime the trick mentioned by RRUZ works fine, but I wanted to clip the images at runtime, i.e. by loading the filmstrip from resource or file

A: You must follow these steps:

*

*set ColorDepth property to cd32Bit,

*DrawingStyle to dsTransparent,

*Height= 48,

*Width=48,
then load the image and the result will be

A: Just import into the imagelist. It'll complain that it's too big and offer to break it into pieces for you. Works fine for me on D2005.
Another cool tip:  I use AWIcons Pro http://www.awicons.com/icon-editor/ to edit icons (nice editor!).  It has a feature that can export an icon as an imagelist (.bmp or .png format), thus making the filmstrip out of an icon.  This makes it really handy to edit these things in .ico format, with a series of cells all the same size and depth, with each cell varying slightly.  Then you export as an imagelist (I use .png) and then Delphi can break them back out into individual cells. Very slick.  AWIcons isn't free, but features like this really make it productive.

A: At runtime, you would have to call TImageList.FileLoad.  Except it won't work.
This in turn calls ImageList_LoadImage, with uFlags parameter value including the bit LR_LOADFROMFILE, which causes Windows to load from a file on disk.  This underlying functionality only supports TBitmap (BMP) format.
See the nearly-duplicate question.  PNG support is a designtime feature that is converting the PNG data into an internal non-PNG and not-exactly-a-BMP-either format, used internally by MS Common Controls library. View your DFM as text, and you will see what your PNG inputs have been turned into. The other answers show you that transparency is preserved, using bitmap-color based transparency.
If you want to keep your data in PNG format, you shouldn't be using a VCL TImageList to store it, because you're going to have to do a conversion from PNG to TBitmap to actually use TImageList.

"The Opposite of Sex"
For all its clever twists, 'The Opposite of Sex' turns a pretty cheap trick.
By Cynthia Joyce
May 22, 1998 11:00PM (UTC)
From the very first voice-over in Don Roos' irreverent new comedy, "The Opposite of Sex," it's clear this isn't the kind of movie that wants you to care about any of its characters. "If you think I'm just plucky," warns DeDee Truitt (Christina Ricci), the film's sardonic central character, "then you're out of luck. I DON'T have a heart of gold, and I'm NOT going to get one."
The point of this obnoxious little tirade is to fly in the face of Hollywood convention, to make viewers aware of their expectations -- and by extension, their demands -- for reasons, or redemption, or some kind of resolution. But too often, the narration causes the opposite to happen: It's the film, not the viewer, that feels self-conscious.
DeDee Truitt is a trash-talking, troublemaking 16-year-old whose hateful stepfather has just died of colon cancer ("couldn't have been a more appropriate way for that asshole to go," deadpans the remorseless DeDee). Leaving her mother behind in Lousiana, DeDee seeks refuge at the home of her half-brother, Bill (Martin Donovan), a well-respected, openly gay high school teacher in South Bend, Ind. Although Bill still mourns the death of his stockbroker boyfriend, Tom, who died of AIDS and left him all his money, he has tried to rebuild a life with Matt (Ivan Sergei), a beautiful but daft 24-year-old who is 10 years his junior ("sometimes just nine, depending on the month," Matt helpfully points out).
Bill, being the quintessential good guy chump (in one early scene, he corrects the grammar of the obscenities written about him on the bathroom wall while the offending student looks on), agrees to let DeDee stay with him and Matt for the summer. It's not long before DeDee plants the seed in Matt's feeble mind that maybe he's not gay after all (the first in a series of somewhat insulting implausibilities), and soon Matt is blowing off his job at Kinko's almost every afternoon to explore that possibility while Bill is away at summer school. When DeDee announces that she's pregnant, Matt can't quite piece together how it happened, what with their meticulous use of condoms; still, he is thrilled at the possibility that he will now have a "normal" family life, and breaks it to Bill that he's in love with Bill's little sister. Matt genuinely wants Bill's blessing; DeDee, however, just wants his money, and persuades Matt to steal $10,000 from him "for the baby," and they take off for Los Angeles with the money as well as Tom's ashes, which DeDee uses to further blackmail Bill.
The drama quickly escalates into fairly standard screwball comedy/adventure fare, as Bill and Lucia (Lisa Kudrow), Tom's sister and Bill's best friend, try to figure out what to do. Bill would just as soon forgive and forget, but Lucia won't allow it; she spends her time offering him counsel and secretly hoping that he'll fall for her. Meanwhile, Bill discovers that Matt had been sleeping with one of his former students, Jason, a high school dropout played by Johnny Galecki (Darlene's adorable but angst-ridden boyfriend on "Roseanne"). Suspecting that Bill drove Matt away, Jason threatens to sue Bill for sexual harassment if he doesn't put him in touch with Matt. A huge scandal ensues, and Bill is forced to track Matt and DeDee down so that he can clear his name.
For all its jarring twists and overly clever tactics, "The Opposite of Sex" does manage to make some pretty poignant remarks about most people's moral confusion when it comes to abortion, AIDS and gay sexuality. The most fertile ground for this is the way everyone responds to DeDee's unborn baby. Everybody has ideas about what's good for The Baby. Everything DeDee does is another chance for Lucia to scold, "That can't be good for The Baby," even though Lucia clearly doesn't give a damn about the welfare of the mother-to-be. ("What do you care?" demands DeDee. "Or was that someone else who suggested abortion?") And though Matt eventually realizes that he is gay, he still suspects that caring for The Baby is his only shot at having a "normal" life.
DeDee's wry observations, which she offers throughout the film, are dead-on about half the time ("If you're with a guy that snickered when Matt kisses Bill, you're with a closet-case homophobe. That's not good"). The rest of the time, they're meant to shock and/or offend, but they're mostly just annoying ("What, did you think I'd end up dead? C'mon, I'm the fucking narrator -- keep up, guys!").
The problem with this in-your-face filmmaking style is that it works a little too well. Instead of merely being made aware of their expectations, audiences are made to feel ashamed of them. So when DeDee finally gets a dose of what's coming to her, for instance, there's no point in feeling sorry for her -- we've already been told not to expect any transformation from her. In fact, there's no point in feeling much of anything, except perhaps disappointment that she didn't get it even worse. And although Ricci does bring considerable depth to her character (as do Kudrow and Donovan to their respective roles), it's not enough to make her incessant blatherings any less irritating.
If the characters seem a little one-dimensional (bad girl, good guy, old maid, etc.), indeed they are. But by juxtaposing such stark characters, Roos parodies the hypocrisy of a politically correct value system founded on fraudulent categories of pure good and pure evil. As each character eventually demonstrates, a person's worst qualities are usually just their best qualities taken to the extreme. There's the all good, all-forgiving gay man whose Christlike tolerance is ultimately self-destructive (not to mention maddening to those around him); the brazen little brat whose survival instincts have taught her how to manipulate others; the bitter, hard-up schoolmarm who's afraid of getting what she wants and in love with someone she can never have; and the easygoing bombshell boy-toy who trusts too easily.
If Roos' point is to blow up stereotypes until they explode, one wonders why he would cast a known hetero as a drama queen. While Donovan is completely convincing as a gay man -- precisely because he doesn't act like a stereotypical gay man at all -- Galecki's Jason feels completely false and embarrassingly overdone as the flamboyant drama queen.
Internal inconsistencies aside, there are plenty of funny moments, most of them courtesy of Kudrow, who is a constant crackup as the lonely and self-pitying Lucia ("She once had a life," DeDee's voice-over offers, "but she stopped feeding it, so it just went away"). Berating Bill for allowing himself to be taken advantage of, Lucia barks, "You think you're being nice, but it's really self-destructive. It's like you have a death wish. I do too, but I direct mine toward other people." Even when Lucia attracts the attention of Sheriff Carl Tippett, an earnest -- and available -- straight man (Lyle Lovett), she can barely tear her thoughts away from Bill. Frustrated, Carl lays his theory of sex on the line: "Suppose sex isn't about recreation, or procreation, but concentration ... I want to be the one you look for first in every crowded room."
The most trying thing about "Sex" is not that DeDee's constant narrative interruptions are ineffective, but that they're just not necessary. There are some great and memorable moments, but no sooner has the moment happened than we get Ricci's grating commentary. Sure, much of the time it's amusing, but it's like hanging out with a witty and cynical friend for too long -- they're great to be around until you realize that no, in fact, they don't have anything better to do.
It's this cynicism that ultimately betrays Roos' bad faith, as if he intended for these moments to be taken seriously, but then panicked and backed off -- if it works, great, if it doesn't, say you were just joking and call it a dark comedy. It's straight from the "you can complain about your cake and eat it too" school of writing. "The Opposite of Sex" mocks you for wanting a Hollywood ending -- but then it gives you one anyway.
Roos' knack for this kind of emotional sabotage has been put to use in slightly more subtle ways in two previous films he's written, "Boys on the Side" (directed by Herbert Ross) and "Single White Female" (directed by Barbet Schroeder). Both of those films delivered the kind of hackneyed tear-jerking scenes and predictable cliffhangers that "Opposite of Sex" works so hard to avoid.
Starring Whoopi Goldberg, Mary-Louise Parker and Drew Barrymore (Ricci's Bad Girl predecessor), "Boys on the Side" was part screwball comedy, part melodrama, with plenty of female frolicking of the singin' 'n' toenail-paintin' variety to offer a respite from the more ominous themes of AIDS and death. "Single White Female" was a psychological thriller whose only real victims were expendable characters anyway -- a helpless and adorable puppy who falls from a high-rise window and an equally helpless and adorable gay neighbor who incurs the deadly wrath of the psychotic roommate, played by (who else?) Jennifer Jason Leigh. Could it be that with "The Opposite of Sex," Roos was exorcising some of his own bitterness about what he felt were ultimately cheap sellouts based on his material? Of his directorial debut, Roos has said, "It's like having a child and raising it yourself rather than having a child and letting someone raise it while you watch through a chain-link fence." Hopefully, he'll allow his next child to grow up a little first, and trust that it can walk on its own.

While most of Restorsea's office decor certainly has a glammed-out quality to it, other pieces fall a bit closer to our hearts.
For her office desk Patti works atop a beautiful oak desk with a steel inlay, originally designed by her father Michael, a mechanical engineer and pioneer in wind energy, in the late 1980's.
Unlike our Versace pieces, which were given a much needed facelift, Patti chose not to refinish her dad's desk in order to carry on the Pao legacy – it was also already perfect, just the way it was.

Review: Adira Gets A Little Backstory In 'Star Trek Discovery: Adventures In The 32nd Century' #2
| April 23, 2022 | By: Dénes House 2 comments so far
Star Trek Discovery: Adventures in the 32nd Century #2
Written by Kirsten Beyer & Mike Johnson
Art by Angel Hernadez with coloring by JD Mettler, and lettering by Neil Uyetake
When an asteroid hit the generational ship that was the home of the human Adira and their joined Trill boyfriend Gray Tal, all of their lives – human, Trill, and symbiont, were turned upside down. That accident caused the death of Gray, and led to the Tal symbiont being implanted into Adira, a virtually unprecedented joining that ended up not only saving Tal's life, but eventually Gray's as well, and led to the USS Discovery locating Federation Headquarters and solving the mystery of the galactic anomaly known as "The Burn." With just a few glimpses into Trill culture and society through Deep Space Nine, the second issue of Star Trek Discovery: Adventures in the 32nd Century gave writer Mike Johnson a chance to explore some of these Trill mysteries with an issue focused on Adira and Gray's backstory.
A cover
And issue #2 of this limited series from IDW does tell us the story of an incident that was only mentioned briefly in the Discovery episode "Forget Me Not." Unfortunately, it is only a three-page expansion of "the time we broke the replicator and it wouldn't stop making apples," a memory that Adira turned into a square in the quilt they made for the newly-joined Gray. I suppose we are lucky we didn't get a retelling of the time they imagined playing chess together.
Like issue #1, issue #2 eschews the opportunity to give us interesting incidents or a deeper look into the character it features. Instead, it mostly illustrates stuff we already know, guided by a light voice-over narration that touches almost entirely on surface issues and never really digs into what makes the characters tick. We do get to see Senna Tal ask Gray to accept the symbiont when he dies, and we get to see a very few panels about Gray and Adira's relationship before and after Gray is joined. But virtually all of the emotion of those scenes is dependent on what we know of their feelings for each other as shown in season three of Discovery.
As with the previous issue, what makes this story well worth having is the artwork by Angel Hernandez and the spectacular colors of J.D. Mettler. Together they capture the characters perfectly, with expressive, joyful linework and powerfully graphical layouts. Hernandez is equally at home drawing spacecraft and interiors as he is drawing likenesses, and I particularly enjoyed the design for the slab-sided generational ship, bringing an almost Sulaco-like vibe into the Star Trek universe of ships. Mettler's colors continue to amaze, with standout pages including the aforementioned shot of the generational ship in space, its subsequent destruction by asteroid later on, and the shot of the Discovery surrounded by Earth Defense Force vessels.
Again, this issue's $3.99 price tag is about right for a light, insubstantial story with fantastic art that will reward re-reading. You won't resent the money spent, but you may wonder exactly what made IDW feel that this was a tale that needed telling. Here's hoping that the next issue, centering around Kayla Detmer, will feature a story worth sinking your teeth into.
In addition to the A cover by Hernandez, the series also features retail incentive covers by Aaron Harvey.

I want to like this series. I really do, especially since the Aaron Harvey covers are awesome. But by focusing on a cat and a dreadfully dull character like Gray, instead of characters that could actually move a story forward, the series is not endearing itself to me so far. Hopefully, later issues will be better. The Linus chapter is the one I'm looking forward to.

Really like the idea of a story about the generational ship…not so keen on the main characters of said story however

"Leaky ceiling": The expert appreciated the West's attempt against Russian oil

"Anselm" Director Kanishchev: The ceiling price of Russian oil can be exceeded
MOSCOW, November 22 – RIA Novosti. The ceiling on the price of Russian oil that the G7 and the European Union want to bring will be very "leaky", since there are legal possibilities to circumvent the ban on insurance and transportation of oil by more than a hundred, this was the opinion: Maxim Kanishchev, director of the Anselm research center, told RIA Novosti expressed.
"A solution will be found. The G7 delegations are well aware of this, so the ceiling will be full of gaps. The exceptions will be delays in implementation, suspension conditions," Kanishchev said. said.
According to him, other countries have many legal options to circumvent the ban, for example, oil will be purchased at a ceiling price, and then an additive will be provided to it and additional services for preliminary refueling.
Last Friday, Bloomberg reported that the G7 countries are planning to announce on Wednesday, November 23, at what level the price cap will be set for Russian oil. The US plans to share its proposal privately ahead of the upcoming meeting of EU ambassadors. If the bid is approved, the agreed ceiling price can be announced on the same evening. At the same time, the agency's interlocutors noted that the timing of this announcement may change.
multiple paradox
When asked whether it would be possible to limit the price of Russian oil, Kanishchev noted that a certain ceiling would be officially set, as the G7 no longer had the political opportunity to "pull back", which countries promised to voters. a lot of time. Another question is whether it will work. The idea of "price ceiling" is in itself a multiple paradox of double standards," said the expert.
Kanishchev explained the first paradox when the G7 did not announce that they would not buy Russian oil above the limit. If their price exceeds the ceiling, they will prohibit companies from providing services for the delivery and insurance of oil transportation from the Russian Federation to any part of the world. However, if someone brings them this raw material at a higher price, there will be no restrictions on their purchase. At the same time, this is a new business opportunity for Asian countries – they can develop companies that are not subject to US and European sanctions to transport more expensive oil.
The second paradox is that the USA declares the economy of the Russian Federation to be non-market, but at the same time uses a non-market mechanism to limit the price of goods.
"This is a very dangerous precedent. In the future, if put into practice by analogy, there will be a desire in US jurisprudence to introduce such ceilings for all groups of goods for which the price is not favorable to the buyer: semiconductors from Singapore, bananas from Ecuador or cars from Germany" It's hard to say what it will lead to, but it's clear that the consequences for world trade will be disastrous. And in the end, it won't work."
Price ceiling from the G7 and the European Union
The analyst states that the five-year average cost of Ural oil is about $65. According to their estimations, this could be the lower level of a possible ceiling. The high-end costs about $100 per barrel. "In total, the average price of the ceiling is $82.5 per barrel, which roughly corresponds to the actual current selling rate, while minimizing the risks of Russian oil going off the market and protecting its political reputation," Kanishchev said.
In September, the finance ministers of the G7 countries (UK, Germany, Italy, Canada, USA, France and Japan) confirmed their intention to impose price restrictions on Russian oil as part of the expansion of sanctions. In early October, the European Union introduced the eighth package of sanctions against Russia, which includes a legal basis to set a price ceiling for the sea transport of Russian oil to third countries. It is planned to impose a price limit on December 5, 2022 for oil and February 5, 2023 for petroleum products.
Commenting on the West's idea of limiting the prices of Russian energy resources, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that Russia will not make any supplies abroad if it is against its own interests. Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandr Novak stated that Russia will not supply oil to countries that will set a ceiling price. In his opinion, such restrictions are interference with market instruments, and Russia is ready to work with consumers who are ready to work in market conditions.

Can Big Ten teams improve on last season's embarrassments?
The Big Ten Conference found itself a running joke last football season. It started with Michigan losing to Appalachian State in the biggest upset in college history. The bashing didn't end until decisive losses by Ohio State in the BCS national championship game and Illinois in the Rose Bowl.
The Big Ten Conference found itself a running joke last football season.
It started with Michigan losing to Appalachian State in the biggest upset in college history. The bashing didn't end until decisive losses by Ohio State in the BCS national championship game and Illinois in the Rose Bowl.
"Michigan lost to Appalachian State,'' said ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit. "That became a punch line. Michigan looked like they had ankle weights against Oregon. That became a punch line. The others … Iowa lost to Western Michigan, Wisconsin losing to Citadel at halftime. Anything that could go wrong went wrong.
The Big Ten's image is falling faster than the dollar. Nevertheless, Ohio State is the Big Ten's preseason favorite and mentioned by some national analysts as a strong contender for a third straight appearance in the BCS title game. After losing the last two BCS title games by a total of 41 points, Ohio State coach Jim Tressel understood the root of the bashing but didn't necessarily agree.
"I know from our standpoint where it comes from is we played the national championship the last two years and haven't been successful. So is that fair?'' Tressel said. "I think that's fair. We haven't been successful. Should that paint a picture of our whole conference? I don't think so.
Ohio State has 20 starters returning and freshman Terrelle Pryor, the nation's No. 1 recruit who will make an immediate impact at quarterback, earning playing time like Tim Tebow did as a Florida freshman.
Meanwhile, the only way to change the image is changing the outcome in bowl games. The league was 3-5 in bowl season last winter. The Big Ten hasn't posted a winning record in bowl season since 2002.
There were other topics Thursday, the first of two Big Ten Conference preseason media days. In Purdue coach Joe Tiller's final year on the sidelines before retirement, Penn State legend Joe Paterno also faced questions about his future. Paterno and Tiller, friends whose ages allow them to say what they feel, provided the best sound bytes. In the final year of his contract, Paterno and the school will discuss his future after the season.
"I'd like to retire when I can't make a contribution to Penn State,'' said Paterno, who enters his 43rd season with 372 wins, one behind Florida State's Bobby Bowden for most career victories among major college coaches. "I want to make sure I do it the way (predecessor) Rip Engle did it.
But the 81-year-old Paterno was giving no other hints.
"I can only say I don't know so many times,'' Paterno said.
Tiller took over a Purdue program in 1997 that had posted 11 losing seasons in the previous 12. The Boilermakers played in 10 bowl games in the first 11 seasons under Tiller. The only coach not wearing a tie to media day, Tiller gave his own eulogy.
"If you can't get along with Joe Tiller, there's something wrong with you,'' he said.
Purdue already hired Danny Hope as Tiller's successor. Hope will work as offensive line coach this fall. Tiller, 65, came to Chicago from Wyoming, where he was trout fishing. He will immediately return to Wyoming for more fishing, then head to Purdue for one last hurrah.
And Paterno won't ask Tiller on knowing when to say when.
As for the rest of the league, football is no laughing matter.

Spring is a framework for dependency-injection which is a pattern that allows to build very decoupled systems.
The Spring Framework is divided into modules.
Applications can choose which modules they need.
At the heart are the modules of the core container, including a configuration model and a dependency injection mechanism.
The Spring Framework was first released in 2004; since then there have been significant major revisions.
Spring 2.0 provided XML namespaces and AspectJ support.
Spring 2.5 embraced annotation-driven configuration.
Spring 3.0 introduced a strong Java 5+ foundation across the framework codebase, and features such as the Java-based @Configuration model.
Version 4.0 was first to fully support Java 8 features.
You can still use Spring with older versions of Java, however, the minimum requirement has now been raised to Java SE 6.
Spring Framework 4.0 provides support for several Java 8 features.
Java EE version 6 or above is now considered the baseline for Spring Framework 4, with the JPA 2.0 and Servlet 3.0 specifications being of particular relevance.
Spring Framework 4.0 supports the Java EE 7 level of applicable specifications now: in particular, JMS 2.0, JTA 1.2, JPA 2.1, Bean Validation 1.1, and JSR-236 Concurrency Utilities.
One of the new features that Spring 5 brings – is the server push support that comes with Java EE 8 Servlet 4.0 API.
Java 8 is the minimum requirement to work on Spring Framework 5.0.
Spring-webflux module that supports reactive HTTP and WebSocket clients.
Spring Framework 5.0 fully supports Junit 5 Jupiter to write tests and extensions in JUnit 5.
mock.staticmock of the spring-aspects module.
web.view.tiles2M. Now Tiles 3 is the minimum requirement.
orm.hibernate3 and orm.hibernate4. Now, Hibernate 5 is the supported framework.

Święcenia prezbiteratu przyjął w 1973. Doktorat z teologii uzyskał na Katolickim Uniwersytecie Lubelskim. Był ojcem duchownym w Metropolitalnym Wyższym Seminarium Duchownym we Wrocławiu i adiunktem w Katedrze Teologii Dogmatycznej Papieskiego Wydziału Teologicznego we Wrocławiu. W 1988 został biskupem pomocniczym wrocławskim, a w 2004 otrzymał nominację na pierwszego biskupa diecezjalnego nowo ustanowionej diecezji bydgoskiej. W 2021 złożył rezygnację z urzędu po przeprowadzeniu przez Stolicę Apostolską postępowania dotyczącego sygnalizowanych zaniedbań hierarchy w prowadzeniu spraw o nadużycia seksualne niektórych podległych mu duchownych na szkodę osób małoletnich.

Życiorys
Urodził się 4 listopada 1948 w Kuźnicach Świdnickich (obecnie Boguszów-Gorce). W 1966 ukończył Liceum Ogólnokształcące nr 3 w Wałbrzychu i uzyskał świadectwo dojrzałości. W latach 1966–1973 odbył studia filozoficzno-teologiczne w Metropolitalnym Wyższym Seminarium Duchownym we Wrocławiu, przerwane na czas odbycia zasadniczej służby wojskowej w Szczecinie-Podjuchach w latach 1967–1969. Magisterium z teologii uzyskał w 1973 na Papieskim Wydziale Teologicznym we Wrocławiu. Wyświęcony na prezbitera został 26 maja 1973 w archikatedrze św. Jana Chrzciciela we Wrocławiu przez kardynała Bolesława Kominka, miejscowego arcybiskupa metropolitę. W latach 1974–1980 kontynuował studia na Wydziale Teologicznym Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, gdzie w 1976 uzyskał licencjat, a w 1980 doktorat na podstawie dysertacji Nauka Wojciecha Nowopolczyka o Eucharystii. W latach 1985–1986 realizował stypendium naukowe w Paderborn.

W latach 1973–1974 pracował jako wikariusz i katecheta w parafii św. Stanisława i św. Wacława w Świdnicy. W latach 1988–1993 był proboszczem parafii Bożego Ciała we Wrocławiu, a w 2001 pełnił funkcję wpierw administratora, a następnie proboszcza parafii Ducha Świętego we Wrocławiu.

W latach 1980–1985 pełnił funkcję ojca duchownego w Metropolitalnym Wyższym Seminarium Duchownym we Wrocławiu. W 1980 został wykładowcą na Papieskim Wydziale Teologicznym we Wrocławiu, gdzie objął stanowisko adiunkta w Katedrze Teologii Dogmatycznej, a w latach 1981–1988 sprawował urząd sekretarza. Wszedł w skład kolegium redakcyjnego "Colloquium Salutis".

24 września 1988 papież Jan Paweł II mianował go biskupem pomocniczym archidiecezji wrocławskiej ze stolicą tytularną Nova Sinna. Święcenia biskupie otrzymał 5 listopada 1988 w archikatedrze św. Jana Chrzciciela we Wrocławiu. Udzielił mu ich kardynał Henryk Gulbinowicz, arcybiskup metropolita wrocławski, w asyście wrocławskich biskupów pomocniczych: Tadeusza Rybaka, Adama Dyczkowskiego i Józefa Pazdura. Jako zawołanie biskupie przyjął słowa "Crux ave spes unica" (Witaj Krzyżu, jedyna nadziejo). W 1989 objął urząd wikariusza generalnego archidiecezji. Zajmował się duszpasterstwem świeckich i młodzieży, a także był cenzorem wydawnictw religijnych i egzaminatorem prosynodalnym. Należał do rady kapłańskiej i rady konsultorów. W 1989 został kanonikiem kapituły katedralnej. Był przewodniczącym komisji głównej synodu wrocławskiego i sekretarzem generalnym komitetu organizacyjnego międzynarodowego kongresu eucharystycznego we Wrocławiu.

24 lutego 2004 decyzją Jana Pawła II został przeniesiony na urząd biskupa diecezjalnego nowo ustanowionej z dniem 25 marca 2004 diecezji bydgoskiej. Ingres do katedry bydgoskiej, w trakcie którego kanonicznie objął diecezję, odbył 28 marca 2004. W 2020 w procesie wytoczonym przez byłego ministranta molestowanego w dzieciństwie przez księdza archidiecezji wrocławskiej Pawła Kanię przeciwko kuriom wrocławskiej i bydgoskiej zapadł prawomocny wyrok, w którym sąd ustalił, że pomimo wiedzy na temat pedofilnych zachowań księdza i postępowania przeciwko niemu o posiadanie dziecięcej pornografii (za co ostatecznie został skazany) hierarcha umożliwił mu kontynuowanie działalności duszpasterskiej (w tym pracę z dziećmi i młodzieżą) w diecezji bydgoskiej. 12 maja 2021 Nuncjatura Apostolska w Polsce poinformowała, że Stolica Apostolska zgodnie z motu proprio Vos estis lux mundi przeprowadziła postępowanie dotyczące sygnalizowanych jego zaniedbań w prowadzeniu spraw o nadużycia seksualne na szkodę osób małoletnich ze strony niektórych podległych mu duchownych. W następstwie postępowania, mając też na względzie inne trudności w zarządzaniu diecezją, złożył rezygnację z urzędu, którą tego dnia przyjął papież Franciszek.

W ramach Konferencji Episkopatu Polski został członkiem Komisji "Iustitia et Pax", Rady ds. Kultury i Ochrony Dziedzictwa Kulturowego oraz Rady ds. Środków Społecznego Przekazu. Objął również funkcje: przedstawiciela Konferencji Episkopatu Polski dla kontaktów z Konferencją Episkopatu Austrii, asystenta Konferencji Episkopatu Polski ds. Radia i Telewizji Niepokalanów. Ponadto wszedł do Rady Programowej Katolickiej Agencji Informacyjnej oraz Rady Nadzorczej Fundacji Opoka. Z ramienia Episkopatu Polski został także członkiem Komitetu Organizacyjnego Środkowoeuropejskiego Dnia Katolików.

W 2009 był współkonsekratorem podczas sakry biskupiej nuncjusza apostolskiego w Kongu Jana Pawłowskiego.

W 2016 został przyjęty do Rycerskiego i Szpitalnego Zakonu św. Łazarza z Jerozolimy obediencji orleańskiej i do 2022 pełnił w nim funkcję przeora duchowego Wielkiego Przeoratu Polski.

W Wojsku Polskim otrzymał awanse na stopnie kapitana (1997), majora (2013) i podpułkownika (2017).

W 2018 otrzymał medal "Błogosławionego ks. Jerzego Popiełuszki", przyznany przez biskupa polowego Wojska Polskiego Józefa Guzdka.

For a year or so, I used to share the videos of Styxhexenhammer666 on this blog…The posts are still available, as I always used to write responses to the interesting things he was discussing.
He used to be generally left leaning, but changed [grifted?] somewhere along the line.
You could say it was quasi experimental on my part…but I wanted to incorporate dialogue with smaller channels, into this blog…not just the slick, professional channels that were obviously trying to make money off of their channel, first and foremost…And this was the era in which I was frequently posting and responding to, videos from Styxhexenhammer666 and Sargon of Akkad…an era which is now well in the past.
I don't believe it was a bad era…and it led to a lot of inspired writing from me…So, I appreciated it, sincerely.
It was pretty much over, when Styxhexenhammer666 decided to leave a very ignorant, nasty response to one such post of mine…You can find it linked in the Fear, Threat and Attack Files, by just doing a page search for his name.
Despite this little spat of nastiness…I'm genuinely sad to learn of his path of self destruction…though, anymore, I'm honestly not shocked.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk confirmed Monday he's flouting county rules by reopening a Northern California plant amid concerns over safety during the coronavirus crisis, tweeting: "I will be on the line with everyone else. If anyone is arrested, I ask that it only be me."
The parking lot of the Fremont, Calif., facility was full, Fox 2 reported, even as Musk and Almeda County officials continue to spar over shelter-in-place rules that have prevented the electric-vehicle giant from reopening since March 23.
Musk tweeted, "Tesla is restarting production today against Alameda County rules. I will be on the line with everyone else. If anyone is arrested, I ask that it only be me." He also wrote: "California approved, but an unelected county official illegally overrode. Also, all other auto companies in US are approved to resume. Only Tesla has been singled out. This is super messed up!

Power Line has the sauce:
Jake Tapper had a great idea: he called former New Jersey Governor and co-chairman of the September 11 Commission on the telephone to ask why Kean was so convinced that the terrorist finance program carried out through SWIFT was important and should not have been blown by the New York and Los Angeles Times:
What I wanted to understand: what would terrorists and those who wish the US harm know now, with the Friday disclosure of the program, that they wouldn't have already known from the first few weeks after 9/11 when President Bush announced that the administration would do everything it could to get all data from every bank around the world.
Kean said that when he was briefed by the Treasury Department on the program, "I was told very few people knew about this facility," which provides transaction processing services for over 7,000 financial organizations located in 194 countries worldwide.
"I was told that very few financial houses in this country knew about it; it was not well known even by people in banking," Kean said. "The terrorists didn't know the financial transactions went through this one group. Treasury told me, this was a method of financial tracking that people didn't understand, that nobody knew this was how things were done. Top-notch people in the US didn't even know."
"The second thing is that it took a long time to get this program set up. SWIFT is not US-controlled; we had to persuade them to cooperate, convince them that this was so important to the war on terrorism. It was a great coup when all these other countries agreed to go along."
All of that work may now be undone by the fecklessness of our newspapers. The Belgian government announced today that it will investigate the SWIFT program:
The Belgian government says it will look into U.S. data mining of private financial records held by SWIFT -- a Brussels-based global banking entity.
"We need to ask what are the legal frontiers in this case and whether it is right that a U.S. civil servant could look at private transactions without the approval of a Belgian judge," government spokesman Didier Seus said Monday.
It appears likely that one way or another, SWIFT's cooperation may come to an end. Of course, it may not matter since, now that they know about SWIFT, the terrorists presumably can figure out how to carry out their transactions without creating a record there.
The Left has always shrieked that Team Dubya wasn't seeking international cooperation and the NYT, as posted below, said that we needed to look into the financing of terror. But after Team Dubya cooperated with the international banking community AND successfully tracked terror money, what did they Left's Treason Media do?
THEY BLEW THE SECRET!!!!
The problem isn't that Dubya isn't doing what they say he should; it's that no matter what he does, they will move to destroy him and if that means risking countless lives as collateral damage, SO BE IT!!!!! It's the Left's Divine Right to rule us and don't ANYONE think that you can stand in their way!!!


stuff jen says: Aug. 27: Tradition!
Tonight we saw the first show of this year's Broadway in Portland series: Fiddler on the Roof. Portland is a stop on Topol's "farewell tour," and I feel incredibly fortunate to have seen him perform in the role of Tevye. It was an amazing show—the music, the dancing, the funny asides to God and the audience… the guy has definitely made the role his own. I read that he is frequently skipping shows on this tour, so I feel even luckier that he was "on" for this one.
Although I'd never seen Fiddler on stage before tonight, I knew I'd enjoy it because I remember listening to—and loving—the movie soundtrack a LOT as a kid. Mom was as crazy for show tunes back then as my kids think I am now (not that there's anything wrong with that…). And since Darlene was much the same way when Vic was growing up, it's no wonder we both love musicals and continue to listen to the soundtracks over and over. We subject our kids to them, or censored versions of them, and they're learning to love them too. I'd apologize, but I just don't wanna.
We had the record album of the movie soundtrack when I was a kid, which had a few pages of color photos from the movie inside it. I think I memorized every scene depicted in that folio while listening to the record on the huge console stereo in the living room. But it didn't end there; we had a cassette tape of the soundtrack that we played in the car. And how did we get that cassette tape? Why, we made it ourselves, just like everyone did back then—by placing the tape recorder very close to the stereo speakers and then insisting no one make any noise for the next 45 minutes. I think every tape we made in those days had Skipper's collar tags jingling along with the music, as well as a lot of "shhh, Kathy!" throughout. And playback? Duh… it was on that same tape recorder, placed on the seat in the car and turned up as loud as it could go (which was not 11).
So yeah, I was sure it would be a good show tonight, but my reaction as it began was different than I expected it'd be. For me, seeing and hearing all the Fiddler music really made me feel like a kid again. I recognized almost every song and was singing along (in my head! I promise, it was just in my head!), surprised at how easily the words came to me. Because, in case you've forgotten, I listened to Fiddler a LOT as a kid—just not much in the last 25+ years.
My favorites tonight: Tradition, If I Were a Rich Man (I had to keep reminding myself that that was Topol singing and dancing—THE Tevye—and that he was there IN PERSON!), and Do You Love Me? I guess The Bottle Dance was great too, but a little light on lyrics.
We got stuck in some road construction traffic just as we got downtown, so we barely made it into the auditorium before the show started. I had just enough time to run down to hug the Loveliest Lori before they started turning the lights down. I ran back to our seats and suddenly it was pitch black and I touched a dude I wasn't married to (though I think we might be now, in God's eyes) and finally found Vic and sat down. I hate cutting it that close! At intermission, Taylor and Eva traded seats with us (sweet girls, but no appreciation for musical theater, apparently) so Vic and I sat with Lori and Shelly for the second half. There was no whispering about any actors' arse-ly beauty—requirements while watching Rent and (from the right angle) Wicked—but I did point out the striking resemblance between the woman who played Yente and Horatio Sanz. Otherwise, Lori and I were quite well-behaved. I think that's why Topol waved to us in his curtain call.
While waiting to get out of the parking garage afterward, I looked up Topol on IMDB and Wikipedia, then read all the details of the original stage productions and the movie version aloud to Vic. I think he appreciated it, but hmmm, he didn't say so. There are a few very interesting tidbits in there, so check them out, Lori (also, note who once played Tzeitel—perfect!).
Well, it may be trite, but sitting in tonight's show took me back to a very happy time in my childhood. I'm thankful to my mom for making music a big part of our growing-up, and also glad to share the part of her heart that attaches itself to memorable movies and musicals through song. If you know what I mean then that doesn't sound wack-jobbish at all.
And for warming our second-act seats, Taylor and Eva, too.
Yes, brought back many memories. I saw Topol as Tevye when I was in my late teens/early 20's (will try and look back and see if I kept the ticket/program). What a delight to see him again and even better than ever!
I have tried to indoctrinate my kids with my love of theatre. Since the age of 5 I have taken Taylor to numerous plays but other than Wicked it appears to be just attending to look for "zest." I'm confident all this forced attendance will be appreciated someday when I can remind her she saw Topol! Live! Last tour!
I told Taylor on the way home that you said "thank you" for switching seats. Her response "eh." I think that means "You're welcome Auntie Jen - anything to make you happy!"
Bette Mid-a-ler as Tzeitel! Perfect. Did you notice that Bea Arthur was once Yente and Adrienne Barbeau was once Hodel. And then there's Maude!
Can't quite see Leonard Nimoy at Tevye, though. That's quite a stretch!
L. Lori, I think Bea Arthur could've played Golde pretty well too. Even Tevye! And yeah, we thought Spock was an odd choice. Might as well let Bobcat Goldthwait or Chris Tucker play Tevye, if they're just GIVIN' it away!
Great post, Jen. Laugh-out-loud fun reading, and brought back a lot of Fiddler memories for me... many a Saturday night in the SDA academy gym, watching that movie (and Sound of Music and My Fair Lady too!)... I know all the songs by heart!
To see Topol, how very cool. So glad you got the chance.
How did I miss this post? John & I saw Topol that summer also. We had tickets to see him at the Panteges Theater in LA. But when we got there, he didn't appear that night. It was still excellent, but not Topol. SO, a week or so later we drove to Orange County and saw Topol himself. It was so good. We loved, loved, loved it.

Q: bokeh check if session active Is it possible in Bokeh to check if session is active? I'm drawing live data streamed from other thread, I want to stop streaming as soon as client closes session (e.g. closes tab).

A: You can use the on_session_destroyed lifecycle hook as described in the documentation:
https://docs.bokeh.org/en/latest/docs/user_guide/server.html#lifecycle-hooks
Note that destruction of expired sessions is a task that happens periodically (at a configurable interval) so the hook will not execute immediately at a session disconnect.


What are the advantages of e-filing?
E-filing has some key benefits over other methods of filing.
Since the IRS doesn't have to re-enter your information into its system, e-filing results in fewer data-entry errors.
You receive an acknowledgment that the IRS received your return. Paper returns don't receive an acknowledgment of receipt.
You'll receive your refund faster if you e-file your return rather than mailing it.
