West Village Episcopal church extends building lease to school for 49 years
CoStar Group Inc.
St. Luke's School at 487 Hudson St..
The Church of St. Luke in the Fields has completed a deal to continue leasing a portion of its block-size West Village campus to St. Luke's School.
The renewal for 487 Hudson St. was done at a discounted rate to help facilitate the school's operations and its expansion while also providing the church with a long-term income stream, said Stephen Powers, a broker with Denham Wolf who helped arrange the deal. He declined to disclose the rent but said the market value for a 49-year lease for a site of this size would be about $100 million, with about $2 million in annual rent.
"Manhattan schools generally pay between 50% and 75% of market value when they have a shared mission component," he said.
The deal puts St. Luke's School, which offers curricula from pre-K to 8th grade, on a favorable financial footing as it embarks on a $25 million plan to add two floors. The project will enlarge the structure, located at the corner of Christopher and Hudson streets, by 50%, to about 60,000 square feet.
St. Luke's School had been operated operated by the Episcopal church but was split off into a separate entity in 2012. The new lease extends the school's hold on the building.
"We wanted to enable the school to become a mature institution that stood on its own two legs," said the Rev. Caroline Stacey, who has been the church's rector since 2005. "We wanted to set them up to do more than survive, but thrive."
The Church of St. Luke in the Fields owns the entire block bordered by Christopher, Greenwich, Hudson and Barrow streets, a parcel that has become extremely valuable.
Mr. Powers along with Paul Wolf, the co-president of brokerage Denham Wolf, specialize in working with nonprofits and religious institutions. In addition to the St. Luke's school deal, the two brokers recently arranged a 99-year lease of a parking lot on the block at 100 Barrow St. to Toll Brothers. Toll Brothers will build a 75,000-square-foot residential co-op building on the site, 20% of which will be affordable. The developer also leased four neighboring townhouse properties as part of that deal, which it will refurbish and convert into market-rate rental units.

Florida Nirvana fans won't believe this divorce twist
by Wallace Law Firm | Jul 8, 2016 | prenuptial agreements
Many readers are aware that Francis Bean Cobain (daughter of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain) is heading for divorce court. What some Florida residents may be shocked to learn is the extent to which the young woman's husband of not even two years feels should be his as part of the divorce. The case serves as an example of the importance of having a solid prenuptial agreement in place and of taking an aggressive legal stance in protecting one's interests during a divorce.
Francis Bean Cobain inherited one of her father's acoustic guitars after his death. Fans of the band Nirvana know that Kurt Cobain killed himself with a single gunshot wound as the band was at its peak of acclaim. The guitar in question is believed to be the last instrument that Cobain played before his death, and it is insured at a value of $1 million. Estimates place the actual value at several times that amount.
Francis Bean Cobain was savvy in asking her husband to sign a prenuptial agreement before the couple wed. That agreement serves to protect Cobain's inherited assets from loss in the event of a divorce. Her estranged husband is seeking the guitar based on his claim that it was a wedding gift and, therefore, excluded from the assets covered in the prenup.
The case has yet to go to court, and the outcome is yet to be determined. It is possible that the action is little more than a ploy to convince Cobain to pay a greater share of spousal support. There is no doubt that the guitar has sentimental value to Cobain as well as a high monetary value. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement on the matter, Florida readers may get some insight into the value of having a prenuptial agreement in place prior to heading down the aisle.

Life insurance: Do you know what to look for?
Learning more about permanent life options may be a point of differentiation with your employer clients.
Recent Eastbridge research has found that while just over half of carriers offer a universal life/whole life (UL/WL) product today, almost a quarter of carriers see UL/WL as a growth product for the industry over the next few years. In addition, UL/WL was the top product (tied with hospital indemnity) listed as most likely to be added to carriers' voluntary portfolios in the next two years.
Despite carrier investment in developing and enhancing permanent life products, most brokers did not include UL/WL in their top five most frequently sold products. Our joint BenefitsPRO/Eastbridge survey found that four of the top five most frequently sold products are the same for benefit brokers and voluntary brokers. With such similar portfolios, learning more about permanent life options may be a point of differentiation with your employer clients.

Verónica Martínez-Matsuda on Her New Book, Migrant Citizenship
by Jacob Remes on July 23rd, 2020
Our series of interviews with authors of new books in labor and working-class history continues with Verónica Martínez-Matsuda. The University of Pennsylvania Press published her Migrant Citizenship: Race, Rights, and Reform in the U.S. Farm Labor Camp Program in June. Martínez-Matsuda, an associate professor in the Department of Labor Relations, Law, and History at the Cornell ILR School, answered questions from Jacob Remes.
Verónica Martínez-Matsuda's Migrant Citizenship.
Your book is called Migrant Citizenship, which at first glance seems like a contradiction in terms. How did farmworkers craft a version of citizenship that didn't depend on immigration status?
That's right. Its contradiction was the very problem farmworkers and Farm Security Administration (FSA) officials tried to resolve through the camp program. During the 1930s and 1940s, stringent state and local residency laws, combined with deep-seated racial and class prejudice, left migrant farmworkers without a place to enact their basic rights. Even if they were formally U.S. citizens, farmworkers were regularly denied the right to vote, send their children to school, access public aid, and receive medical care because they were considered non-residents or non-citizens of the community and state in which they were seeking services. The transitory nature of migrant work, in other words, marked all farmworkers as "alien." A big part of this story, therefore, involved uncovering how FSA officials and migrant families challenged the notion of juridical citizenship as a guarantor of democratic rights. Together, they argued that real democracy resulted not only from migrants' full enfranchisement but also from their daily participation as citizens (regardless of formal status) in a political and social community characterized by collective responsibility and behavior.
Is there a character in your book you're especially fond of?

There are truly so many fascinating individuals in this historical account. That's part of what made this program extraordinary. For a long time I was fascinated by Laurence I. Hewes, Jr. He struck me as someone who clearly embodied why a race-relational analysis of the camp program is necessary. In 1935, Hewes began working for the Resettlement Administration (RA) in Washington, D.C., paying particular attention to the dislocation impacting white and Black tenant farmers and sharecroppers in the South. In 1939, after the RA becomes the FSA, he is sent to San Francisco to serve as the agency's Region IX Director. In 1942, Hewes is busy overseeing the expansion of the labor camp program in the West when he's called in to help coordinate the evacuation and relocation of all persons of Japanese ancestry on account of E.O. 9066. Among other things, Hewes oversaw the operation and sale of Japanese farms, and worked with FSA architects to design World War II internment camps. Within months of commencing these operations, he is also sent to Mexico City to begin negotiations for a new Mexican Farm Labor Supply Program, better known as the Bracero Program. That one man could traverse this terrain seemed astonishing at first, but it really is a clear example of how these processes and the struggles they produced overlapped in significant ways. The last thing I'll mention is that Hewes wrote a memoir later in his life titled Boxcar in the Sand, which is super interesting because he's very candid about how he felt in carrying out these assignments.

Because things like the Wagner Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act and Social Security excluded farmworkers, we often describe the New Deal as excluding them. But you describe the Farm Security Administration as a profound "experiment in democracy" seeking to include farmworkers. How does close attention to the FSA change our view of the New Deal as a whole?
Yes, it's true that farmworkers were excluded from these key New Deal protections. I've written more in recent times, particularly concerning the COVID-19 pandemic, about the costly consequences of federal inattention to farmworkers' welfare and the racist origins of that. It's one, of so many, examples of systemic racism at play. The simple fact is that the Southern congressmen who were central to advancing the New Deal because they dominated Congress did everything they could to preserve Jim Crow and deny Black workers any opportunity to challenge their condition. And, quite significantly, this exclusion served in the interest of industrial farmers in the West where the expansion of commercial agriculture had become profitable through the exploitation of mostly Mexican and Asian labor.
Thus, when the FSA establishes its migratory labor camp program and begins investing in farmworkers' well-being—that is, by arguing that all farmworkers should be entitled to political representation, fair wages, good housing, public education, medical care, and the human dignity they were so often denied—it directly challenges the nation's agrarian establishment and status quo. Part of why this is important to recognize is that it shows how the FSA's reformist, democratic project reached far deeper and wider than previous scholars have acknowledged. It also changes the New Deal's political narrative by demonstrating how some New Deal liberals developed meaningful reform action through the 1940s, and within a rights-based framework that addressed matters of racial and class injustice as central.
For a while now, people have been demanding a Green New Deal, and mass unemployment from Covid has brought even more discussion of a "new New Deal." What can the experience of farmworkers during the original New Deal tell us about how we might craft a new one?

I've certainly been thinking more about this as well, particularly as we consider how the nation will recover from the economic crisis fueled by COVID-19. I've seen good discussions of this on social media, some of which include bringing back New Deal programs like the "Works Progress Administration" and others. I don't think that's a bad idea so long as these programs are more equitable today than they were then. But these days, I'm actually more inspired by the research I've been doing on farmworkers' "self-help" programs under the War on Poverty. And, in particular, by the challenges surrounding the Community Action Programs of the 1960s and 70s. We're currently witnessing the incredible strength of community self-organization and determination in many forms—in everything from the establishment of new mutual-aid groups to the #BlackLivesMatter movement. That's why I think we should consider investing more in local communities' own strategies for supporting and empowering people, especially those that are unemployed, facing food insecurity, or lack healthcare. Unlike the original New Deal, I certainly hope this time around the most vulnerable aren't left out simply because it's what's politically palpable and profitable.
Now that you're done with your book, what are some books you're looking forward to catching up on?
Oh, there's so much to catch up on! I'm especially excited to read José M. Alamillo's new book, Deportes: The Making of a Sporting Mexican Diaspora. José is a fellow Dodger fan so I know what he's written is brilliant—ha-ha! I've also been hoping to read Eduardo Contreras' Latinos and the Liberal City: Politics and Protest in San Francisco, which won the 2020 David Montgomery Award. And, I recently heard a great interview on NPR's Code Switch with Karla Cornejo Villavicencio that made me want to order her new book The Undocumented Americans. But, to be totally honest, these days I'm mostly reading from the bookshelf my three six-year-olds curate. I've learned a lot about Star Wars in the last few months!

In observance of the fiftieth anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., FedEx Corporation is providing free admission to the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum and the Museum of Mississippi History on Wednesday, April 4. King, who served as president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) until his death, was a key figure in the American civil rights movement and supported Mississippi activists by bringing national attention to their efforts.
King's involvement in Mississippi began when he attended the funeral of NAACP state field secretary Medgar Evers in 1963 and participated in the march that occurred afterwards. In 1964, he visited Greenwood during Mississippi Freedom Summer to show the SCLC's support for the project. At the 1964 Democratic National Convention, King made a statement before the credentials committee expressing support for the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party (MFDP) to unseat Mississippi's white-only Democratic Party delegation.
When James Meredith was shot during his March Against Fear in 1966, King and his wife, Coretta, traveled to Mississippi and joined the demonstration. King marched alongside Stokely Carmichael, Fannie Lou Hamer, Annie Devine, Floyd McKissick and thousands of others through the Mississippi Delta to the Mississippi State Capitol in Jackson.
In 1968, King teamed with Fannie Lou Hamer as the SCLC and MFDP launched the Poor People's Campaign. Mule Trains departing from Marks and Mount Beulah sought to promote an Economic Bill of Rights that included full employment, a guaranteed annual income, and affordable housing. After King was assassinated, Ralph Abernathy stepped in to lead the march, which ended in Washington, D.C.
The Museum of Mississippi History explores the entire sweep of the state's history. The Mississippi Civil Rights Museum, the first state-operated civil rights museum in the country, explores the period from 1945 to 1976, when Mississippi was ground zero for the Civil Rights Movement nationally. The museums' hours during the free admission on Wednesday are from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. For more information, call 601-576-6800 or visit http://www.mdah.ms.gov/2MM/.


Singapore may not be UBS's biggest booking centre in Asia, but the city is very important for many of the Swiss bank's clients who are not based here. Singapore domiciled clients account for close to 10 per cent of UBS's Asia-Pacific assets under management, said Raymond Ang, regional market manager Singapore, UBS Wealth Management, in a recent interview.
Two members of the well-known Danish family that founded Pandora, a company famous for its charm bracelets, are plonking down over S$31.1 million for two high-end apartments at the Orchard belt. The apartments, each of which is 4,478 square feet, are at the plush Boulevard Vue condo along Cuscaden Walk.
Sim Lian Group has received 750 e-applications for the 534 available units at the Wandervale executive condominium (EC) as at 5 pm on Sunday, the property developer said. According to the group, the Choa Chu Kang EC - which is the first EC to be launched this year - is more than 40 per cent oversubscribed.
The High Court has cleared the way for United Overseas Bank to sue two real estate agents for alleged deceit and conspiracy over inflated loans for 38 units at a luxury condominium in Sentosa Cove. Apart from the two agents, the bank is also suing five other individuals and developer Lippo Marina Collection (LMC) for conspiracy, with damages to be assessed.
Eight years ago, Mr Li Jun, 40, came to Singapore from Qingdao in China to help drive Chinese developer Qingjian's business here. He knew little about the property market here then and did not fully understand the needs of home buyers. Now, the general manager of Qingjian Realty (South Pacific) Group plans to tap the latest in innovation to build what could be the first executive condominium (EC) project here to be fitted with smart home technology.
Farrer Park Hospital (FPH) patients, especially those from overseas, can recuperate at an adjoining hotel.
One Farrer Hotel and Spa, with 243 rooms, suites and villas, can free up ward space, said FPH chief executive officer Timothy Low.
United Engineers' (UE) net profit for 2015 has fallen 17 per cent to S$102.2 million, largely due to the sale of two business units at end-2014. On a per-share basis, profit at the property and engineering group came to 16 Singapore cents, for the year ended December 2015.
A lack of a one-off divestment gain and lower fair-value gains for its investment properties led UOL Group's net profit to fall 43 per cent to S$391.4 million for the year 2015. The property developer did not provide figures for its fourth quarter. A year ago, it had enjoyed a one-time property development revenue of S$220.1 million from the sale of land at Jalan Conlay in Kuala Lumpur. Attributable fair-value and other gains (including fair-value gains of associated companies) were also just S$41 million in 2015, against S$288.3 million in 2014.
In recent weeks, plenty of column inches and TV time have been devoted to the startling new phenomenon of negative interest rates. But if you are looking for evidence of it in Singapore, you will be disappointed.
With recent market turmoil putting pressure on mortgage holders, the property market has seen a seven-year high in the number of repossessed properties put up for auction. The Straits Times also reported that the value of property sold under auction has hit a five-year high of $102.27 million, with residential units dominating the listings.
Surbana Jurong Pte Ltd has clinched another contract in Myanmar as its expansion gathers pace in the fast-growing market. This time, it teamed up with Beijing-based state-owned Citic Group to bid for the tender to provide master-planning, infrastructure and port planning services to Kyaukphyu Special Economic Zone (SEZ) industrial park.

My notes for the book of My Anxious Mind. Personal thing not school or therapy related.
Introduction To start with the helping or getting better with managing your anxiety or phobias, there's a plan with steps to follow. The first part is to take charge of your plan. This means that, you make the plan because YOU are the only one who can help yourself. No one is to blame for your anxiety, not you, not your mom, dad, sister, friend, NO ONE. Even if you are the only one who can help yourself, that doesn't mean that you are alone in this journey. Far from it really, there's multi. people that are on this same road right now. The next step is to promise to keep moving forward. Taking control of your anxiety/life is a long and difficult road that requires 120% effort, time, and the constant promise to keep going even if it's just for three months. The progress is real when you look back months after. No matter how difficult it may get you need to promise yourself to keep going. It gets hard to do all the time but if you promise to keep going you'll get to where you want or better. The next step is to take small risks. Take chances to tell others if they are stressing you, talk about things with someone you trust. Face your fears, anything. Little by little if you take small risks, you'll get better. If you take many small risks and do them all at once, the many small ones turn into one huge risk, and can set you back in your progress. Always take it slowly, not too fast. Go at a speed you need, because you're the only one who knows what your limits are. The last step is to admit the benefits of fear and worry and give them back. This is one that a lot of people with anxiety don't realize that they do. It's where you use your anxiety to get out of doing things. The best way to overcome your anxiety, give your benefits back, even if it's just for a while because that's the only way you'll be able to grow and overcome this.
Chapter 1 One out of 20 teens in the US, have extreme worry, phobias, or panic attacks.

Impact on children's health care
Spina Bifida: Carter's Story
Posted by Champion for Children's Health
About 120,000 babies are affected by birth defects each year in the United States. Not only can birth defects lead to lifelong challenges and disabilities, they are also the most common cause of death in infants and the second most common cause of death in children aged 1 to 4 years.
For National Birth Defects Prevention Month, Speak Now for Kids spoke with Carter's parents, Webb and Courtney, to learn what it's like to parent a child with a birth defect and how the condition affects her family's life.
Carter was born with spina bifida. Although spina bifida impacts his life every day, Carter does not let it define who he is. This happy and energetic boy loves school, competitive cooking, playing adaptive sports and, best of all, being a big brother to little brother, Cohen.
Former Cincinnati Children's Hospital patient returns as doctor
At 12 years old, after a few weeks of being sick, Julie learned she had liver failure and seven days to live. She underwent a liver transplant, two angioplasties, and four organ rejections at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center on her journey to a full recovery. Fortunately, Julie now has a new relationship with Cincinnati Children's—as an employee.
Since my liver transplant, I was inspired by the amazing medical staff at Cincinnati Children's and wanted to become a pediatric gastroenterologist.
Today, I'm a clinical fellow in the gastroenterology division at Cincinnati Children's. I was given the opportunity to train with a team of excellent physicians with a broad range of knowledge and experience, and a limitless compassion for kids. I'm working alongside my former hepatologist, Dr. William Balistreri—one of many who saved my life many years ago. He has been an amazing role model and inspiration for me.
My dream is coming true—thanks in part to the Children's Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) program. CHGME provides federal funds to children's hospitals to help train pediatric residents and fellows. This program has helped me and others like me follow our dreams to care for kids. I believe it is critical to train the next generation of physicians who can properly care for children and give them the opportunity to live their lives to the fullest.
Advocacy Continues: Joey's Story
Despite not being able to vote in the next presidential election, 16-year-old Joey has been making rounds to meet candidates as they visit his home state. To many, 16 might seem young to be so engaged—but Joey has been a seasoned advocate for years. In fact, he represented Medical University of South Caronia Children's Hospital (MUSC) at Family Advocacy Day almost 10 years ago!
Even as a 7-year-old at that time, Joey was a strong advocate for children's health. He was particularly passionate about raising awareness for cystic fibrosis (CF). Joey was born with CF and has spent his whole life seeing the importance of children's hospitals for kids like him.
That's why he began volunteering for the for the American Civil Liberties Union's (ACLU) Rights for All campaign and interviewing candidates on the road. Joey shares his story every chance he gets!
Speak Now for Kids Turns 6!
Wow, how the years flew by! On Nov. 6, 2013, Speak Now for Kids was launched. Today, we are a strong community made up of more than 60,000 child health champions just like you.
While today's kids represent around 25% of the U.S. population, they are 100% of our future. That's why their health and well-bring must always be a top priority.
Thank you for your continued advocacy for children's health! Your support has made a huge difference in kids' lives. During the past six years, you've made your voice heard in a big way. In fact, our community has gotten Congress' attention with a combined total of more than 100,000 email messages, tweets, phone calls, and in-person visits!
Celia was born at 27 weeks. She weighed in at 1 pound 11 ounces. She was diagnosed with lung immaturity and apnea of prematurity, a condition in which breathing repeatedly starts and stops. As a result, she needed to be on a ventilator for several weeks.
"Fortunately, none of Celia's complications were too severe," says neonatologist Francis Poulain, M.D. "However, she did remain at UC Davis Children's Hospital in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for 93 days."
Great gymnasts have a fierce determination to improve their skills, but Aspen is unstoppable. After a lawnmower accident at her grandparents' house left her without a right foot, Aspen endured four surgeries and months of recovery. But she always had her eye on the prize: returning to gymnastics.
Aspen received much of her care and treatment at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. She was under the care of the hospital's chief of staff emeritus, Tony Herring, M.D., and a full team of child life specialists, physical therapists and prosthetists. "When she went back to gymnastics, she went straight to the balance beam," Aspen's mother, Mary, says. "If I could go back and change things now, I wouldn't. She has been an inspiration to me, her family and everyone around her without even trying."
Will's Story
For Down Syndrome Awareness Month, Speak Now for Kids chatted with Lynn, Will's mother, to learn about Will and his health journey at Mt. Washington Pediatric Center.
When she was 21 weeks pregnant, Lynne went in for a routine ultrasound. Experts noticed her son's pinky was small. After a follow-up test, it was determined that her baby, Will, had Down syndrome—or Trisomy 21.
"The first 24 hours were rough," says Lynne. "We relied on Mt. Washington Pediatric Hospital for the first few weeks of his life. They provided a nurturing environment for us during this stressful period."
Now 5 years old, Will is doing amazing! He's currently in kindergarten and loves to sing, dance, play soccer and draw. He is full of energy and enjoys being outside with his brothers.
"He's a typical toddler," she says when asked what it's like being a parent of a child with Down syndrome. "He's running around everywhere, getting into everything that toddlers get into."
Wyatt's Story
Wyatt is a typical 4-year-old. He loves LEGOs, watching baseball and playing fetch with his dog. But, unlike most kids his age, Wyatt has a rare form of dwarfism—he has had to overcome many obstacles in his young life. For National Dwarfism Awareness Month, Speak Now for Kids chatted with Jenn, Wyatt's mother, to learn about Wyatt and his health journey at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta.
It wasn't until my son, Wyatt, was 10 weeks old that doctors discovered he has significant spinal cord stenosis. His doctors were unsure if surgery was needed to prevent further damage to his spinal cord.
A temporary solution was introduced, and Wyatt was fitted with a cervical neck brace to see if any damage to his spinal cord could be reversed. Because Wyatt was so little, the specialists had a hard time finding a cervical collar small enough to fit his tiny neck. Coincidently, Wyatt's dad worked for a surgical equipment company that specializes in spinal implants. With the help of donations from his employer, Kevin began making his own cervical braces for Wyatt at home.
To have a place like Children's Healthcare of Atlanta (CHOA), where the specialists are all in one place, is so important. With the help of weekly physicals, occupational and speech therapists, and close observation by numerous specialists, Wyatt is now a thriving toddler!
World Spine Day
Taking place on October 16 each year, World Spine Day highlights the importance of spinal health and well-being.
When Caleb arrived at Shriners Hospitals for Children — Chicago, he had a spinal curve of 120 degrees. Diagnosed with kyphosis, a condition in which the spine is curved and protrudes outward, Caleb's family turned to Shriners to help for the son they recently adopted from China. In addition to kyphosis, Caleb was born with multiple congenital anomalies in his lower extremities, including clubfoot and hip dysplasia. Caleb is also deaf and is working to learn sign language.
Purnendu Gupta, M.D., chief of staff and pediatric spine surgeon, met with the hospital's spine team and determined that operating with two surgeons would produce the best outcome. A 3D printed model of Caleb's spine helped the team prepare. Working with 3D models allows surgeons to see the malformations from various angles.
The evening before his surgery, Caleb was feeling nervous. After seeing Caleb was uneasy, Gupta sat on the floor alongside Caleb to show him the 3D model, which helped ease the nerves.
The 10-hour surgery significantly reduced Caleb's spinal curve and gave him several inches in height. He will continue his care with the orthopedic team at Shriners for his lower extremities.
"At Shriners, we have team of nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, care coordinators, child life specialists, recreational therapists and more who work with our patients every step of their medical journey," says Gupta. "This team approach allows for great outcomes and recovery with the children we treat."

Why I'm Proud to be a Pediatric Nurse
National Pediatric Nurses Week is from October 7-11, 2019. Today, Carol shares her testimonial as a nurse.
From the first day of nursing school, I knew I would become a pediatric nurse. But I didn't know I would find my calling in pediatric surgery.
One day during my clinical rotation in the O.R., I could feel the department suddenly "buzzing" more than usual. Near the end of my shift, I found out we were getting a new heart for a very sick baby. At the time, pediatric heart transplants were relatively rare so I did not want to miss this operation.
I watched in total awe for hours. Just as the baby's new heart was sewn into place, the chief surgeon motioned for me to stand next to him. He took my hand and placed it on the baby's new heart. Within moments, she was taken off the bypass machine that had kept her alive during surgery. I felt her heart beat for the very first time.

Q: How to configure an asynchronous web server in the ESP32? I am trying to do an asynchronous web server using a Sparkfun ESP32 with an ESP32-WROOM-32D and the Arduino IDE for one of my projects. My ultimate goal is to use the WiFi network of the ESP32 as an AP and serve up an asynchronous web page to a connected client, so it can download a text file from the server.
To start my project, I tried to do a simple server just like in this tutorial :ESP32 Arduino: Asynchronous HTTP web server , I used the library ESPAsyncWebServer.h :
#include <WiFi.h>
#include <ESPAsyncWebServer.h>

const char* ssid = "ESP32wifi";
const char* password = "12345679";

AsyncWebServer server(80);

void setup() {

  Serial.begin(115200);
  delay(1000);

  Serial.println(ssid);
  WiFi.begin(ssid, password);

  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
    delay(2000);
    Serial.println("Connecting to Wifi...");
  }

  Serial.println("IP address: ");
  Serial.print(WiFi.localIP());

  server.on("/html", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest * request) {
    request->send(200, "text/html", "
Hello!
");
  });

  server.begin();
}

void loop() {
}

The problem is that everytime I compiled the code there were no errors but when I opened the serial monitor in the Arduino IDE I was stuck in "Connecting to Wifi...", my WiFi.status was never connected.
I then try to solved the problem by reinstalling the libraries the program was using, change the SSID and the password of my network, change the server port to 8080 and use a code with a fixed IP address but my WiFi.status() was still the same.
A couple of days ago I used the same ESP32 as a Soft Access Point for another project with only the WiFi.h library :
#include "WiFi.h"

const char* ssid = "ESP32wifi";
const char* password = "12345679";

WiFiServer server(80);

I tried my old code again without the asynchronous server code and the SAP worked, so it wasn't a problem with the WiFi antenna. I then decided to try another kind of library that let me configure an asynchronous web server, it was WebServer.h :
#include <WiFi.h>
#include <WebServer.h>

const char* ssid = "ESP32wifi";
const char* password = "12345679";

WebServer server(80);

But I had the same problem that I had with the AsyncWebServer, my program was stuck in "Connecting to Wifi..." .
So, my question is how can I configure an asynchronous web server in the ESP32 ?
Could it be a mistake in my code that causes my problem? Is there a way to use the WiFi.h library only for this kind of server?
Thank you in advance for your help !

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AND
OF THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Please Take Notice That:
On Behalf of the People of the United States of America, the undersigned Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth and affiliates hereby petition for, and demand, a truly independent investigation with subpoena power in order to uncover the full truth surrounding the events of 9/11/01 specifically the collapse of the World Trade Center Towers and Building 7. We believe there is sufficient doubt about the official story to justify re-opening the 9/11 investigation. The new investigation must include a full inquiry into the possible use of explosives that might have been the actual cause of the destruction of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and Building 7.

It's "The Planets" by Holst. The movement is "Mars -- The Bringer of War."

Yes, I REALLY should have known that!!!
Big time red face!
This is one of the very few standard rep works I still have yet to play, either professionally or during the student years.
"Big time red face!" Just
"Big time red face!"
Just like Mars : )
I've never played in an orchestra, but it seems like it would be exhausting to play this one.
Agreed, Tanabear. "Jupiter" is magical. Always been partial to that sweet theme in the middle of it.
Sorry for the musical interlude. Carry on.
AE911Truth and Holst
In a discussion at townhall.com over Debra Medina's comments, I mentioned that Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth had over 1,000 signatories. Some were incredulous, "Post the list tanabear. Let's see it. Who are they? What makes you think they are respectable? Just because they have a respectable sounding name?" I promptly did. He promptly disappeared. It is nice to see a video of it as well.
My favorite composition by Holst from The Planets is Jupiter: The Bringer of Jollity. The most famous section starts right before the 3 minute mark.
"The greatest triumphs of propaganda have been accomplished, not by doing something, but by refraining from doing. Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth."
- Aldous Huxley -

Ah yes, Jupiter I would have
Ah yes, Jupiter I would have recognized. ;-)

IMPORTANT - links to "NIST finally admits freefall" do not work
This three part series by David Chandler - which illuminate Shyam Sunder and John Gross squirming and stumbling all over themselves - and finally admitting to 2.25 seconds of freefall are CRITICAL to demonstrating PROOF of explosives.
BUT the links on AE911truth.org take one to YouTube where we get a message that the videos have been removed by the user.
These videos need to be made available.
zmzmzm on Sun, 02/14/2010 - 6:22pm.
I share your concern on these deleted videos.
I was looking for these and others the other day. Gone.
Hmmm......
I wonder why they have been removed? I went to David Chandler's website and they aren't available there either. It is certainly important to get people to watch those videos.
David A. Fura
Ph.D. Elec. Engr., Univ. of Washington
"The brilliant Part III of David Chandler's "NIST Finally Admits Free Fall" is all one needs to understand that explosives caused the WTC collapses. The evidence for controlled demolition is overwhelming, of course, but it is the weak official explanations and non-sensical debunker counter-arguments that truly seal the deal for me. The NIST admission video is therefore qualitatively superior to all other videos that voice only the 9/11 truth movement side....All that remains now is to get a critical mass of people to view the free-fall videos, as well as the others. Our strongest influence is among our friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Make it a practice to educate at least one new person per week from these groups."
AE911Truth

David Chandler has a new youtube channel, which includes the sublime 'NIST finally admits freefall':

Thanks Influence Device. I still would like to know the who, why and how the videos were removed.,
The links from AE911truth.org STILL DO NOT WORK.
Obviously there is deliberate supresstion including the resetting of views from 10s of thousands down to single digits.
The only way we can be sure we can share these is to download to our own computers - and to keep posting to all the available channels - not just YouTube.

Commentor at After Downing Street said
Darn a commenter said at the site previously mentioned:
This is getting a little dizzying with the Spanish court. I quickly read an article last week or the one before that said that Spain's universal jurisdiction law was struck down by the Spanish Supreme Court or Senate, or some high-level government body there.
If that article was truthful, then I hope that the law has been revived. It'd really make the above article's news exciting; although, I guess we shouldn't get our hopes up too high. I'll still hope though.
Then the only negative will be that there's surely no way the government of the USA would send its high-level officials, even if they're now former ones, to courts outside of the USA. The government surely won't accept to put them on trial in the USA, either.
But it'd still be good for Spain to keep its universal jurisdiction going and to conduct the inquiry against the Bush Jr-Cheney administration; as long as the people in charge of the inquiry conduct in full honesty, which I think they will. Some of them would surely want to do this honestly; f.e., the judge who finally succeeded in getting Pinochet extradited. It hopefully won't take until Bush and Cheney are as old as Pinochet was, before the government of the USA puts them on trial or sends them to another country, or to the international court, for trial.
And Obama should worry, since he's certainly not innocent. The U.S. forces are still killing, ... in Iraq, and these are all crimes the Obama administration is responsible for; but the war on Afghanistan is also illegal, another supreme crime of war of aggression.

Q: ansible parsing json into include_tasks loop I have the following json file called cust.json :
{
 "customer":{
        "CUST1":{
                "zone":"ZONE1",
                "site":"ASIA"
        },
       "CUST2":{
                "zone":"ZONE2",
                "site":"EUROPE"
        }
    }
}

I am using this json file in my main.yml to get a list of customers (CUST1 and CUST2).
main.yml:
- name: Include the vars
  include_vars:
    file: "{{ playbook_dir }}/../default_vars/cust.json"
    name: "cust_json"

- name: Generate customer config
  include_tasks: create_config.yml
  loop: "{{ cust_json.customer }}"

I was hoping the loop will basically pass each customer's code (eg CUST1) to create_config.yml, so that something like the following can happen:
create_config.yml:
- name: Create customer config
  block:
    - name: create temporary file for customer
      tempfile:
        path: "/tmp"
        state: file
        prefix: "my customerconfig_{{ item }}."
        suffix: ".tgz"
      register: tempfile

    - name: Setup other things
      include_tasks: "othercustconfigs.yml"

Which will result in :

*

*The following files being generated : /tmp/mycustomerconfig_CUST1 and /tmp/mycustomerconfig_CUST2

*The tasks within othercustconfigs.yml be run for CUST1 and CUST2.

Questions :

*

*Running the ansible, it fails at this point:

TASK [myrole : Generate customer config ] ************************************************************************************************************************************************************

fatal: [127.0.0.1]: FAILED! => {
    "msg": "Invalid data passed to 'loop', it requires a list, got this instead: {u'CUST1': {u'site': u'ASIA', u'zone': u'ZONE1'}, u'CUST2': {u'site': u'EUROPE', u'zone': uZONE2'}}. Hint: If you passed a list/dict of just one element, try adding wantlist=True to your lookup invocation or use q/query instead of lookup."
}

How do I loop the JSON so that it would get the list of customers (CUST1 and CUST2) correctly? loop: "{{ cust_json.customer }}" clearly doesnt work.

*If I manage to get the above working, is it possible to pass the result of the loop to the next include_tasks: "othercustconfigs.yml ? SO basically, passing the looped items from main.yml , then to config.yml, and then to othercustconfigs.yml. Is this possible?

Thanks!!
J

A: cust_json.customer is a hashmap containing one key for each customer, not a list.
The dict2items filter can transform this hashmap into a list of elements each containing a key and value attribute, e.g:
- key: "CUST1"
  value:
    zone: "ZONE1"
    site: "ASIA"
- key: "CUST2"
  value:
    zone: "ZONE2"
    site: "EUROPE"

With this in mind, you can transform your include to the following:
- name: Generate customer config
  include_tasks: create_config.yml
  loop: "{{ cust_json.customer | dict2items }}"

and the relevant task in your included file to:
    - name: create temporary file for customer
      tempfile:
        path: "/tmp"
        state: file
        prefix: "my customerconfig_{{ item.key }}."
        suffix: ".tgz"
      register: tempfile

Of course you can adapt all this to use the value element where needed, e.g. item.value.site

Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Charlottesville is known for year-round natural beauty and small-city sophistication. Even USA Today featured Charlottesville as a great place to invest in a home. "Take one of the nation's quintessential college towns, throw in a big slice of American history, add golf courses and wineries, set it all in prime horse country, and the result is Charlottesville," said Larry Olmsted for USA Today. However, when it comes to buying and selling a home, many of us are left with a plethora of questions about the process and what we can expect. So, we took some of our questions to one of our local agents, Gayle Harvey of Gayle Harvey Real Estate, to learn more about the process. Be on the look out for future posts as we continue this realty series in months to come!
Is there a best time to sell and buy?
"It depends. Most people think about the spring market, which generally means inventory will be at its highest level and more buyers will be stirring. That gives buyers a greater selection but also gives sellers more competition. Generally, inventory is at its lowest at the end of the year which could translate to a higher sales price for sellers.
Are there any exterior elements that affect selling a home?
"The exterior of your home is the most important element. Quite often, if buyers don't like the exterior and drive into the property, they won't even get out of the car to go see all the great things you have done to the interior.
How do you stage your house for selling?
"Make sure your home is sparkling clean and you have decluttered and depersonalized it. Stand at the entryway to each room and try to imagine seeing it for the first time. What grabs your attention? Is that a negative or a positive? Sometimes it is better to ask a friend or your real estate agent to walk through with you. Quite often, it is just too hard to be critical of your own living space.

Welcome to Lucas Wave International, where we combine the power of Fibonacci, Lucas, Golden Spiral, Financial Geometry, Gann and Astronomic numbers with Elliott wave, candlesticks and technical analysis to provide you with one of the most precise pattern recognition methodologies for all financial markets.
You can now make affordable monthly payments on the training program, see paypal for details.
Through our newsletters, teaching program, book, DVD's. webinars and appearances at conventions around the country, we help traders identify key turning points on the chart by combining the power of cycles with important support and resistance zones to gain an edge over the competition.
As a speaker, I've been on a distinguished roster of world class traders and technicians at the Traders Library Hall of Fame Awards conferences which gave Lifetime Achievement awards to both Martin Pring in Washington, DC and Richard Arms in Chicago. I've appeared as a guest speaker at Futures magazine panel discussions at the Traders Expo in both New York and Pasadena, California as well as my own breakout sessions at the Traders Expo in New York, Las Vegas and Pasadena.
As a private trader, I've has been doing this for the last ten years and publicly since 2002.
Since this is a weekly chart, there were actually 4 high probability turn dates and the Dow did elect the last one on October 11. Time has proven us very accurate as it may not only have been the most meaningful pivot of the decade, but our lifetime.
For all the people who lost billions in wealth, it's a shame because this methodology served as an incredible Tsunami warning system. So if you are broker or Wall Street analyst coming to this site for the first time, you have a very powerful methodology at your fingertips.
But it didn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out. Had you read my book, Breakthrough Strategies For Predicting Any Market, you could have learned to do this by yourself. Its one of the most comprehensive books written on Fibonacci and Lucas cycles in financial markets.
That's the beauty of our cycle work. While it appears complex, the concept is very simple. Markets have their own unique language and speak to us in number symmetries. Wall Street would have you believe you can't time markets but nothing could be further from the truth. With the use of Fibonacci cycle points, I was able to identify a very important reaction point a full 6 months ahead of time. As time got closer, we were able to adjust our forecasts to be even more accurate.


Something's killing Europe's olive trees: a bacterium that's probably spread by insects. Scientists don't know how to stop the disease, not yet.
Other scientists analyzed the Ginkgo genome. What they found helps explain the tree's remarkable endurance.
If this is your first time here, I may have some explaining to do.
I'm a Christian, a Catholic, and take my faith and our Lord very seriously. That's not even close to insisting that we knew everything there was to know about the cosmos back when Tiglath-Pileser III ruled Assyria.
My faith emphatically does not depend on rejecting what we're learning about this wonder-filled universe.
"A disease that poses a 'very serious threat' to the EU's olive industry has been recorded on the Spanish island of Mallorca for the first time.
"Island officials said a movement ban covering 15,000 hectares had been imposed and measures had been taken to 'contain and eradicate its spread'.
"Experts describe Xylella fastidiosa as one of the 'most dangerous pathogens worldwide'.
The article doesn't say who the "experts" are. My guess is that Xylella fastidiosa got labeled "most dangerous" because the bacterium can infect several important crops.
Mark Kinver's article says the European Union makes and consumes most of the world's olive oil. This disease probably pushed olive oil prices up by 20% in 2015.
My guess is that it's hurting households as well as olive oil producers and distributors.
Pierce's disease, an X. fastidiosa disease, became a problem for the California wine industry in the 1990s, when glassy-winged sharpshooters showed up in the Temecula Valley.
Scientists still haven't found a cure or control method, but they've been learning a lot about how the disease spreads: and the bacterium's genes.
At least 83 of X. fastidiosa's genes come from bacteriophage. Some of them make the bacterium more virulent. I think that's not entirely bad news, though.
"The Ginkgo tree has had its genetic code laid bare by researchers.
"The tree is famed for being a 'living fossil' – a term used to describe those organisms that have experienced very little change over millions of years.
"In the case of the Ginkgo, there are specimens preserved in the rock record from 270 million years ago, in the Permian Period.
The BBC News article's picture of a contemporary ginkgo leaf superimposed on a fossilized one is impressive, although the fossil seems to be the lightly-nibbled 6.7 cm tall Ginkgo biloba leaf found in the Klondike Mountain Formation.
That leaf fell about 49,000,000 years back, and was in the Stonerose Interpretive Center Collection in 2008.
Ginkgo biloba is the only species of Ginkgo around these days. It's the only survivor of the Ginkgo genus. The genus first showed up in the Early Jurassic, 180,000,000 years back; give or take ten million.
The Ginkgo genus is part of the Ginkgoales order; and that's what goes back to the Permian, about 270,000,000 years ago.
Genus is the taxonomic rank between species and family.
We've fine-tuned taxonomy quite a bit since Carl Linnaeus set up the basics in 1735.
I've had a hard time finding a generally-accepted age for the Ginkgo biloba species. Part of the trouble, I suspect, is that what we do know about G. biloba is — odd.
The ginkgo genus has been declining since the early Cretaceous, some 145,000,000 years back. Like I said, these days it's down to one species, native to part of China. Oddly enough, Ginkgo biloba apparently isn't an endangered species.
That's probably because humans have been planting the trees across Eurasia and, more recently, the Americas. It helps that G. biloba doesn't mind pollution or confined patches of soil, and resists many diseases.
Ginkgo biloba earned a near-legendary reputation for durability after August 6, 1945, when a half-dozen Ginikgos were among the hibakujumoku, 被爆樹木, in Hiroshima. The trees were scorched, but are still growing there.
Another ginkgo had been growing near a stairway at the Tsurugaoka Hachimangū Shrine, 鶴岡八幡宮, for about a thousand years ‐ until a pre-dawn storm in March, 2010.
An expert said the tree was done for, so folks kept the stump and replanted part of the trunk. Both were sprouting leaves in July of that year.
The Ginkgo biloba genome is huge, with 41,840 annotated genes. The G. biloba's genome is 'written' with 10,600,000,000 DNA 'letters,' compared to the human genome's roughly 3,000,000,000.
No wonder G. biloba has been so durable. It's got a vast instruction manual for handling assorted threats.
This month's study shows that although G. biloba hasn't changed much in appearance, it's been evolving at a great rate at the genetic level. What the scientists learned, and the methods they used, will help us sort out other large genomes.

WAYNESBORO — The Waynesboro Maidens varsity softball team did just about everything they could to win their game against visiting Greencastle-Antrim on Thursday afternoon.
Everything, that is, except get runners in scoring position across home plate. Waynesboro left eight runners on base in scoring position, and G-A starting pitcher Haley Dawson threw a complete game with the help of clutch defensive stops as the Blue Devils turned the tables on the Maidens in a 6-2 Mid-Penn Colonial Division victory.
G-A 10 hits against Waynesboro pitching, all but one on singles, and was the beneficiary of five walks. Three of them came in the top of the fourth inning that could have been a break-out frame were it not for a player being tagged out at home plate. Still, the Blue Devils posted a run during the inning to take a 4-0 lead.
"We've been practicing great all year," said G-A coach Mark DeCarli, whose season opening game against West Perry last Saturday was postponed until today. "Our theme is 'family,' and we have each other's backs. We kept plugging away and got the win."
The Blue Devils were swept by the Maidens last season and the two teams faced off in a rare early-season matchup. It was the season opener for both teams.
Waynesboro, which hosted its first-ever District 3 playoff game in 2018, hit the ball hard off Dawson. The Maidens had nine hits but could only pick up two runs off of them. Waynesboro left the bases loaded in the bottom of the seventh inning in what proved to be a microcosm of the game.
"The timely hitting wasn't there," said Waynesboro coach Aaron Burke, whose team is back on the diamond today at Lower Dauphin in a game that was wiped out last Friday due to rain. "We made some mistakes offensively and defensively that would have made the game closer."
The game was played in what has to be ideal conditions for this time of year. Temperatures hovered around 60 with a tolerable breeze and partly sunny skies. It was a far cry from the blustery conditions that make playing games during the Pennsylvania high school spring season a hardship.
G-A punched across the first run of the game in the top of the first when Kylie Cunningham led off the game with a walk and came around to score on a single off the bat of Bailee Martin-Irving.
Waynesboro got runners as far as second base in the first three innings but came away empty. The Blue Devils pushed across two runs in the third frame as Hailey Long led off with a doubled and pinch runner Alyssa Gaus later scored on a wild pitch. Cunningham singled and eventually scored on a passed ball for a 3-0 lead.
G-A increased the lead to 4-0 in the fourth as pinch hitter Molly Ronzo singled home Kylee Croskey, who walked and stole second.
Waynesboro got on the scoreboard in the home fourth when Mac Miller led off with a base hit and scored on a one-out hit by Nicole Jones.
Martin-Irving singled and scored in the fifth inning to make it a 5-1 game.

Jose Mario C. Francisco, The Philippines
Dr. Jose Mario C. Francisco, S.J. is Professor of Philosophical and Systematic Theology at the Loyola School of Theology, Ateneo de Manila University, in the Philippines. His research and teaching are focused on the interaction between the science, culture and theology, especially in Asian contexts. Theological themes like "original sin" or "divine action in the world" are discussed in relation to their historical contexts and to their reception in different linguistic and cultural contexts, and literary works and cultural practices like 17th century sermons of Spanish missionaries or Tagalog-Spanish dictionaries are analyzed in terms of their religious worldview and ethos. Fundamental to his work in these two areas is the paradigm drawn from contemporary translation theory—that Christianity is translated as it moves from one context to another. His recent publications include 'Mapping Religious and Social Spaces in Traditional and Charismatic Christianities in the Philippines' (in Festschrift in honor of Fr. John N. Schimacher, S.J.) and 'Speaking in Many Tongues: Translation and Transcendence in Early Filipino Christianity,' in Philosophy, Religions, and Transcendence.

Q: Create comma separated list from list of objects I have list of objects type Person. This class has many properties and I need them all in a comma separated list so I can use it later for Csv file.
I've managed this with foreach and adding each property, separating it with commas manual, etc.
const string commaSeparator = ",";
foreach (var item in individualsInformation)
{
    csv.AppendLine(item.ReferenceNumber + commaSeparator + item.FirstName + commaSeparator +
                   item.Surname + commaSeparator + item.MiddleName + commaSeparator +
                   item.Address1 + commaSeparator + item.Address2 + commaSeparator +
                   item.Address3 + commaSeparator + item.Address4 + commaSeparator +
                   item.City + commaSeparator + item.PostalCode + commaSeparator +
                   item.Country + commaSeparator + item.DateOfBirth.ToString() + commaSeparator +
                   item.ID + commaSeparator + item.Gender + commaSeparator +
                   item.Component + commaSeparator + item.NationalID + commaSeparator +
                   item.SubSystemID + commaSeparator + item.System);
}

Then I've realized that there is much efficient way, by using string.Join
This does not work of course:
string joined = string.Join(",", listOfPersons);

And if I go by selecting property like this:
string joined = string.Join(",", listOfPersons(x => x.Id);

I get comma separated list only for that property of course.
Is there some more efficient way for getting each property separated by comma?

A: Reflection is (sometimes) your friend:
var props = item.GetType().GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance); // todo: cache & filter not-needed props)

var itemStr = string.Join(", ",
                     props.Select(p => p.GetValue(item, null)?.ToString())
                          .ToArray());

A: Overrride the ToString-Method for your Person-Class
public class Person
{
    //properties...

    public override string ToString()
    {
        return string.Join(",",
            this.ReferenceNumber,
            this.FirstName,
            this.Surname,
            this.MiddleName,
            this.Address1,
            this.Address2,
            this.Address3,
            this.Address4,
            this.City,
            this.PostalCode,
            this.Country,
            this.DateOfBirth.ToString(),
            this.ID,
            this.Gender,
            this.Component,
            this.NationalID,
            this.SubSystemID,
            this.System);
    }
}

so you can use Person.ToString() for csv-generation. Unlike the reflection approach you can easy

*

*maintain the order

*handle each type different (BirthDate.ToString("d"), Price.ToString("F2"))

*skip values you don't need e.g. System.Collections.Generic.List1[System.String]

*change values to your requirements (HasChildren ? "Yes" : "No")

A: I would avoid reflection if possible.
You can achieve it with compile time safety and readable code easily:
IEnumerable<string> personTexts = listOfPersons
    .Select(p => String.Join(",", p.ReferenceNumber, p.FirstName, p.Surname, ...));
string joined = String.Join(Environment.NewLine, personTexts);

You have full control over which property should be used and in which order.

A: Using Reflection where T : class

var valueLines =reportData.Select(row => string.Join(",", header.Split(',').Select(a => row.GetType().GetProperty(a).GetValue(row, null))));

eg
private MemoryStream GenerateExcelStream(List<T> reportData)
    {
        var lines = new List<string>();
        var header = "";
        var attFilter = new NoDisplayInReportAttribute();
        PropertyDescriptorCollection properties = TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(typeof(T));
        foreach (PropertyDescriptor prop in properties)
            if (!prop.Attributes.Matches(attFilter))
                header += prop.Name + ",";
        header = header.Substring(0, header.Length - 1);
        lines.Add(header);
        var valueLines =reportData.Select(row => string.Join(",", header.Split(',').Select(a => row.GetType().GetProperty(a).GetValue(row, null))));
        lines.AddRange(valueLines);
        MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
        TextWriter tw = new StreamWriter(memoryStream);
        lines.ForEach(x => tw.WriteLine(x));
        tw.Flush();
        return memoryStream;
    }

Coleman use the latest technology and a rigorous testing regime to ensure that we keep you protected at all times - whatever the weather.
One key area we examine is a tent's ability to repel water. If a tent has a hydrostatic head of 3000mm it means that a 3 metre column of water can be placed on its surface before any drops will show through the underside of the fabric. The areas of the tent rigorously assessed within WeatherTec+ system include: fabrics, flysheet and ground sheet seams and zipper water tightness. Fire Retardant - safety first! The fire retardant characteristic of our material ensures that the fabric will not flare dangerously out of control and will self extinguish, giving time to escape in the event of an emergency. Highly flexible and lightweight fibreglass poles guarantee a good response to wind and storms. Flysheet fabric: Polyester, 3000mm, PU coated, taped seams.

Warner Brothers buys David Morrell's The Brotherhood of the Rose.
David Morell is best known as the author of First Blood, the novel that gave birth to the character John Rambo. First Blood was made into a film, with Stylvester Stallone making the Vietnam vet an American Icon of the 80s. John Rambo was a perfect fit for the Reagan era.
Now another of his novels has been optioned for the big screen. Warner Brothers has purchased the rights to The Brotherhood of the Rose.
TBotR tells the story of about a pair of orphans raised by a CIA operative. The Operative trains them to be assassins. Wow, the child psychologists would have a field day with that situation. Actually, this sounds like it could be a Geraldo Rivera special..or maybe Nancy Grace (don't get me started on that she-clown).
Anyway, since this is a novel, there has to be conflict. In this case, the pair of hunters become the hunted.
The Brotherhood of the Rose was made into a television mini-series, for NBC, in 1989. It started Robert Mitchum, Connie Sellecca and Peter Strauss.
Warner Brothers has signed Adan Cozad to write the screenplay.
Morrell is a very talented writer that has spun some fantastic yarns. Good to see more of his work get a shot in Hollywood.


Hi there, the purpose of this thread is to say what reaaly annoying situation you have been in and to comment on the situations other people have had.
Il start, and i am in the annoying situation at the time of this posting. i am on our boat on the river avon and currently there is a flood that means we cannot move forwards (or backwards) or leave the boat. In other words we are stranded. at least we have and internet connection and are morred in Evesham (the flood is slowly going up but it hasent reached any buildings yet so its not THAT bad).


One of the most prolific peatfree compost users in England and Wales is The National Trust. They only use peat-free products in their gardens. We supply quite a few of their properties, including the beautiful Shugborough Estate near Stafford.
We caught up with Senior Gardener Caroline Beacall to find out more about this amazing property and how they use our compost. Caroline is a bit of a star, given she won a rare City & Guilds Medal for Excellence award when she was just a trainee gardener.
What type of gardens can be found at Shugborough?
What's a typical Shugborough plant?
What gardening challenges do you face at Shugborough?
"After the Lichfields gave Shugborough to the National Trust in 1960, it was looked after by the county council. It returned to the National Trust in November 2016 and we opened in March 2017. We're therefore starting from scratch when it comes to plants, machinery and even our biosecurity procedures. Also because of the distances involved, it can be an effort to get around the estate. It takes 10 minutes just to walk from the walled garden to the formal gardens!
What's the history of the gardens at Shugborough?
"The landscape was redesigned in the early nineteenth century by Thomas Anson who inherited the fortune built up by his younger brother George. George, or more formally Admiral Anson, was known as 'the father of the British navy' and was a privateer of Spanish galleons.
How long have you been a peatfree compost user?

What's a good tip when using Fertile Fibre?
Have you a favourite compost mix?
"We want to balance the needs of conservation and horticulture with those of the visitor. The dahlia 'glasshouse' uses willow wands and dahlias to help visualize the 'ghost' of the old building. It's a playful way to interact with the space.

when you tap a file in My files, you will be prompted to open the file.
when you tap a switch on Galaxy S8 settings, you are togging it on or off.
when you tap a quick setting button (e.g., Bluetooth), you can toggle on/off that feature.
when you tap any characters in keyboard or keypad, you can input text, PIN or password.
Anyway, tapping is one of the simplest and most powerful Galaxy S8 touchscreen gestures.
If you tap and hold anywhere on Galaxy S8 touchscreen for more than 2 seconds, the tapping will be considered as long tapping.
Long tapping gesture is often referred as tapping and holding.
to access context menu. For example, you can long tap an app icon on the home screen to see the context menu including app info, uninstall app, clear number badge, or force the app to sleep.
to launch Google Assistant by long tapping Home button.
to select items in some apps, for example, in My files app or in Gallery app.
to enter edit mode for Galaxy S8 home screen by long tapping any blank area in Galaxy S8 home screen.
Dragging is a follow-up gesture of long tapping (tapping and holding).
After you tap and hold an item, you can then move it to a new location on the screen as shown below.
To use dragging touchscreen gesture, you need a sequence of actions: tapping, holding and then dragging.
While dragging, you should not release your finger until your finger reaches the target position in the touchscreen.
You can drag an app in Galaxy S8 Apps screen to add it to Galaxy S8 Home screen.
You can rearrange the location of each app or widget in Galaxy S8 Home screen by dragging it to a new location.
You can create an app folder in Galaxy S8 Home screen or App screen (app drawer) by dragging an app , and drop it over another app.
Double tapping gesture requires you quickly tap the same location or button twice as shown below.
It is considered as one of the under-used Galaxy S8 touchscreen gesture.
The most popular usage of this gesture is double tapping power button (in Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, double tapping Home button) to quickly launch Galaxy S8 camera app.
Some apps use double tapping to zoom-in. For example, you can double tap on a webpage or image to zoom in. You can then double tap again (or use Back button)to exit zoom-in mode..
Swiping gesture requires you lightly drag your finger vertically or horizontally or diagonally across the touchscreen as shown below.
Some owners may refer this swiping touchscreen gesture as sliding.
The difference between dragging gesture and swiping gesture is that for dragging there is no long tapping gesture before you drag your finger.
Swiping is one of the most frequently used Galaxy S8 touchscreen gestures.
to accept or reject calls.
to access Galaxy S8 notification panel by swiping down from top of the screen.
to scroll through Galaxy S8 home scree panels or Apps screen panels.
to switch between Galaxy S8 home screen and Apps screen as explained in this guide.
to scroll down any pages longer than one screen.
to convert an app into pop-up view multi window mode by swiping diagonally from either top right or top left corner of the screen.
Pinching gesture as shown below requires you to move two fingers inward in Galaxy S8 touchscreen. Normally, most Galaxy S8 owners use thumb and forefinger.
The main function of pinching gesture is to zoom out in most apps including camera app, Gallery app and web browser. You can use pinching gesture to enter edit mode of Galaxy S8 Home screen.
Spreading is the opposite of pinching. It requires you to move fingers outward in Galaxy S8 touchscreen.
Why I cannot use S Pen on Galaxy S8 (and S8+) touchscreen?
S Pen, which can be found in Galaxy Note devices, does not work in Galaxy S8 and S8+.
Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ screen can only accept a passive (capacitive) stylus or finger.
S Pen is considered as an active stylus, which requires a special digitizer under the screen.
Can you use these 7 Galaxy S8 touchscreen gestures in Galaxy S8 and S8+?
If you have any questions or encounter any problems on Galaxy S8 touchscreen gestures, or using Galaxy S8 touchscreen , please let us know them in the comment box below.
« Migrate to Galaxy S8: how to transfer data from old device to Galaxy S8 and S8+?
Air view feature was removed in Galaxy S devices since S6. It's still available in Galaxy Note devices using S Pen.
Hi, I was using my oneolus3 until it got wet twice and would no longer connect to anything! Bought the s8 on the waterproof feature alone, anybody have any tips about how to use the gesture controls the OPluses now have? Circle for camera was ok, but the v for a torch is/was a very good feature that I miss!!
Galaxy S8 by default don't have these gestures. But you can use third-party launchers to get similar (not exactly identical) results.
Yes, multiple reboots, multiple partition cache wipes, power off & let sit. Delete recently added apps, malware scans. All no change.
You can rest the settings (not factory data reset in Settlings – general management – reset – reset settings.
1. Do other gestures work normally?
2. Did you test it in Gallery app?
Other gestures like swipe to front or rear camera, up/down, left/right all seem fine. Double tap to zoom works but only to a set zoom & only on the point you tap. Tried gallery, fb, ig, chrome, VZ texts etc.

Newcastle City Council has approved plans for a controversial new table dancing club to open opposite Central Station.
The proposals, for the premises on Grainger Street, had brought opposition from Council Leader Nick Forbes.
More than 30 letters of objection were also received by the council.
The bar used to be called The Den but its owners say it hasn't decided on a new name for it.
They do say it won't be a typical lap dance bar and it will create 100 new jobs.
