Do you Believe in Magic?
Magic is one of the oldest and most successful performing arts, and it started as a form of entertainment at fairs in the 19th century. These days, magic is seen everywhere, from TV shows and theaters to corporate parties and children's birthdays – it's impossible not to love it. It would be very hard to find someone who doesn't enjoy a good magic act. But why are people so drawn to magic? If they weren't, famous magicians like David Copperfield would not have sold tickets worth billions of dollars. Psychologists are a category of scientists who have researched magic and the fascination it provokes to audiences. Some of the conclusions researchers have drawn are that people are attracted to things that cannot be explained logically
This starts from the first months of life, when infants can be entertained for hours by playing Peek-a-Boo. The idea of something appearing and disappearing in front of them makes babies feel delighted, and when we grow up things don't change very much. It's just the trick that becomes more complicated – a signed card disappears out of your sight to be later found in your pocket. If we go deeper to our roots, we'll see that the human brain has evolved to make sense of the world, and we need this in order to survive and thrive. We like to generate explanations for everything that happens, and when we cannot do that, we get a thrill – how was it possible to cut the magician's assistant in two and see her safe and sound minutes later? Also, we love the feel of wonder! We like to think it may be possible for some unbelievable things to happen, such as people levitating or teleporting. A part of us wants to believe magic is real and even educated people end up believing some magicians have special skills for reading the audience's mind. Thats why magicians have become prominent figures in the entertainment field. Its common to see magicians for hire at parties, gatherings, events, and live shows. Attendees of these events will have a lasting impression of awe and wonder! Even grown adults will feel their inner child come to life again. Magicians are perfect for corporate events, birthday parties, and more! Magicians are among the most unique and talented entertainers out there. You won't believe your eyes! If you are planning a special occasion, you might want to consider hiring a magician to make it a extra magical event! Endless Entertainment knows this and has been the best in the business when it comes to Magic! From performing magicians, to full on illusion shows.

My brother who is an NRI wants to transfer money (INR 5 Lac) from his savings A/C in Indian bank to his NRI friend's savings A/C in Indian bank through electronic transfer mode but as his mobile number registered with the bank is not working anymore, he is not able to add his friend as a beneficiary. As an alternate route my brother transferred the above amount (in INR) in my savings A/C and I transferred the amount to his friend. The amount transferred is for help and no interest is being charged for the same. Kindly help me regarding the tax implications (if any) for all 3 of us (I - Indian Citizen, my brother - NRI and his friend - NRI) and how to show the above transaction in ITR (if required) so as to avoid any query from IT department with respect to below scenarios.
SCENARIO 1: Money is returned by my brother's friend in the reverse order (Bother's friend ==> me ==> to my bother) in the next FY or future FY.
SCENARIO 2: Money is returned by my brother's friend directly to my brother (Brother's friend ==> to my bother) in the next FY or future FY.
I have to Start at Business for that I received 10 Lac cash from My Mother (Senior Citizen + Tax Payer) in this FY year in July which I deposited to My Bank Saving Account. Now after talking to one of my friend I Came to know for such GIFT from Parent also there are some rules from Income Tax Department. I have following queries which I am looking advise from you.
1) Can I take 10 Lac cash as Gift from my Mother...? is this Okay or its illegal.
2) Will it be worth to have Gift Deed..? Please advice with format if possible.
3) Should I need to Mention it in my ITR as ..?
My Profile is I was working Professional & paying tax appx 2 Lac per year on salary from last 5 years & this year Sep 18, I quit my Job because I am in process on to start my Business.
Looking for your kind advise to avoid any consequence later. Please do let me know if you have any other questions.
You may take a second opinion.
If i (a salaried employee) have lent out money with an agreement to someone and there is a default - can i set off this loss due to default on my salary or other income?
Sir, Can you please clarify if these both can be considered 'relatives' as per income tax act and does the property transfer between them qualify as 'non taxable'.
Ajay and Ajith are blood brothers. Ajith's wife is Anjali. Ajith passed away 5 years back.
Now if there is a transfer of property between Ajay and Anjali (Ajay's sister in law, wife of his deceased brother) - Can this be considered as transfer within relatives? (specially since Ajith is no more, will this be valid in 'relatives' category)?
Thanks Sir, I am just trying to learn now. Not an expert, just simulating scenarios in mind and searching for answers.
I will post any update if i get a concrete answer on this. Thanks!


I need a macro that adds a specific text, plus the content of my clipboard, at the end of the subject of all messages I have selected. How do I get the content of the clipboard automatically, without first pasting it into an Input Box?
Although Outlook VBA doesn't include a paste from clipboard function directly, you can use the MSForms dataobject to transfer the clipboard contents to a string which is then called from VBA. You could also use use the Word object model to copy the message body to the clipboard.
The finished code will look something like the following. Note, you will need to have a reference to the Forms library in Tools, References.
What about going in the other direction: copying text to the clipboard? Use PutInClipboard to capture the text.
Remember, if you receive a "User-defined type not defined" you are missing the reference to Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library. If its not listed, add C:\Windows\System32\FM20.dll or C:\Windows\FM20.dll as a reference.
Current versions of Outlook use Word as the email as the email editor and can use the Word object model library to do things not normally supported in Outlook.
Don't forget to set a reference to Word's Object model in Tools, References.
.Subject = "This is the subject"
Paste format types are below. For more information see WdRecoveryType Enumeration (Word).
wdChart Pastes a Microsoft Office Excel chart as an embedded OLE object.
wdChartLinked Pastes an Excel chart and links it to the original Excel spreadsheet.
wdChartPicture Pastes an Excel chart as a picture.
wdFormatOriginalFormatting Preserves original formatting of the pasted material.
wdFormatPlainText Pastes as plain, unformatted text.
wdFormatSurroundingFormattingWithEmphasis Matches the formatting of the pasted text to the formatting of surrounding text.
wdListCombineWithExistingList Merges a pasted list with neighboring lists.
wdListContinueNumbering Continues numbering of a pasted list from the list in the document.
wdListRestartNumbering Restarts numbering of a pasted list.
wdSingleCellTable Pastes a single cell table as a separate table.
wdSingleCellText Pastes a single cell as text.
wdTableAppendTable Merges pasted cells into an existing table by inserting the pasted rows between the selected rows.
wdTableInsertAsRows Inserts a pasted table as rows between two rows in the target table.
wdTableOriginalFormatting Pastes an appended table without merging table styles.
wdTableOverwriteCells Pastes table cells and overwrites existing table cells.
wdUseDestinationStylesRecovery Uses the styles that are in use in the destination document.
This is so helpful. Thanks Admin and all the member of this page.
How can "Sub CopyMessage" be modified to copy text up to the first "From" in an email (copy text from the most recent email reply)?
I'm sorry, I'm having trouble implementing this new code into the older code. I appreciate the fast reply and help!
I would need to see the code to help.
Unfortunately the above code does not locate the text "From"... the Sub still copies the entire email body. Any suggestion?
correct, it only copies the body. you need to use oMail.sendername or oMail.senderaddress to get the frm information.
I got it to work! Thank you for your help!!
Hello Diane, I'm have a need to pass the value of a highlighted text within an email body directly to a URL. so basically, I would double-click (select) on a specfic key word, click some button on my ribbon and have that run a macro to take the selected key word and insert it into a pre-defined URL. I already have the URL code working. I'm stuck trying to get the selected keyword (in the email message body) copied and passed in my code. I'm not trying to copy the entire message body. Any ideas? Thank you!
Try using just .copy, removing .wholestory.
I'm trying to paste a collection of Excel cells I've copied into the clipboard into an Outlook email's .body. I'm trying to paste using destination styles so as to preserve the table grid of the cells I'm copying from my spreadsheet. While I can dump the contents unformatted easily from the clipboard, I can't seem to get anything to work using the Word references for using destination styles. I've tried playing around with the code in this post but no joy. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Diane, I've used this code to past in the clipbord from many years ..
now I've finally installed office2010 and windows10 but .. it doesn't work anymore! With CtrlV it paste just a pair of "?".
I've just checked the presence of Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library and ... its ok. Any suggest to find the solution?
I've recently updated from Windows 7 32-bit and Office 2010 to Windows 10 64-bit and Office 2016. I am experiencing the same problem as the first commenter on this page (Michele, January 19, 2016).
works fine, except when it doesn't. When it works I get nice text in the MsgBox which then is copied into the clipboard where I can copy it into any other application. However intermittently it doesn't work - the text is displayed properly in the MsgBox but then goes into the clipboard as two question marks. Once the issue crops up it is remedied only by rebooting the computer.
This appears to be a known bug in Windows 64-bit builds. I found a page at https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/48e8c30c-24ee-458e-a873-a4e6e13f5926/dataobject-settext-and-putinclipboard-sequence-puts-invalid-data-hex-63-characters-in-clipboard?forum=isvvba which documents and reiterates the issue.
Have you seen this before? I only need the unformatted text and would be fine if all formatting was stripped out.
Thanks as always for your expertise and willingness to share.
Interesting problems trump vacations. :) Try this snippet for the copy part - it's longer but worked in quickie test.
MsgBox "You need to select a Contact."
That is working wonderfully, Diane! I'll report back if I run into any problems but it has run a dozen times or so today without fail. Thank you so much! Enjoy your vacation!
As andyZ just pointed out, it's a bug in 64bit windows - it's not one I've experienced tho. The ?? replacement indicates an issue with font encoding.
Pasting into a new message body and copying using word code works, although is a heck of a lot longer than 3 lines.
Oh sorry that wasn't really accurate. Before I want to copy the content, I need to find the link in an unread email in my inbox and open it first.
That won't be so hard - you can use regex to locate it. I'll put a regex together.
Thank you, you are amazing. That works just fine!
I tried to insert it into a new message but i couldn't get it to work - the method i use for stationery needs to have the html saved locally.
Is there a way to open all links in all unread emails in my inbox, because right now the macro is only opening the link of an open email? Thanks in advance!
it should be opening the first link in the selected message. We can loop and open all links (change .Global = True and move the lines that open IE after debug.print strurl line), but it has the potential to bring down the computer if you have a lot of links.
It worked out just fine, thanks again Diane!
Here's two macros - the first gets all urls in the message, the second one does all messages in a folder.

Antiquated privacy laws fail to protect Canadians
Government must update legislation in a way that addresses today's technology and prepares for future changes. And political parties can't be exempt
By Sen. Art Eggleton
and Sen. Raymonde Saint-Germain
Canadians are concerned about the protection of their private data, according to a 2016 Survey of Canadians on Privacyundertaken by the privacy commissioner of Canada. A reported 90 percent of Canadians expressed some level of concern about data privacy and 74 percent of Canadians felt they have less protection of their personal information now than they did just a decade ago.
Canadians are right to be concerned.
The recent Facebook and Cambridge Analytica scandal revealed the shocking use of personal data gleaned from millions of Facebook users and sold to a third party for the purpose of swaying international government elections. The Canadian whistleblower at the heart of the scandal, Christopher Wylie, referred to the incident as the "canary in the coal mine" in his recent appearance in front of a House of Commons committee: "Cambridge Analytica is the beginning, not the end."
At a recent open caucus meeting of the Senate, data experts came together to discuss the imperative of enhancing the statutory protections of private data in Canada. What was clear is that government policies and legislation aren't keeping up with advancements in technology.
It's time we did more.
Canada's federal privacy laws operate on a complaint-only basis with a general framework for consent unlike the European Union (EU), which has strict, proactive privacy regulations safeguarded by the General Data Protection Regulation(GDPR).
As Dr. Valerie Steeves of the University of Ottawa told the open caucus, the EU's GDPR is informed by a commitment to privacy as a "human right" and is not just a collection of legal restrictions. PIPEDA, Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, by contrast, emphasizes "consent" – but, she argues, "consent should be the floor, not the ceiling" when safeguarding Canadians' privacy.
Canada needs to model itself on the human rights approach to privacy that the EU has adopted.
Our broad consent laws enable our personal data to be used in a myriad of second and tertiary ways without our knowledge or permission. "Once we move into a big data environment, consent becomes a weak tool," Steeves stressed. We also need "algorithmic transparency" as big data companies use information in ways we may not have even conceived of yet.
Daniel Therrien, the privacy commissioner of Canada, emphasized that "Canadian trust is at risk" – and not just consumer trust but trust in our democratic processes. He pointed out that his office lacks powers to enforce compliance with existing privacy laws – and that privacy issues are not unique to Facebook: "Self-regulation has shown its limits."
An all-party parliamentary committee agrees.
The recently tabled parliamentary report Towards Privacy By Design reviewed PIPEDA. It recommends significantly increased enforcement powers for the privacy commissioner, specifically broader audit powers, discretion about which complaints to pursue, and the ability to make orders and impose fines for those who do not comply with privacy legislation.
We fully agree. "We need to give the law some teeth," as Dr. Avin Levin of Ryerson University put it.
Levin emphasized that the protection of Canadians' private data is "a question of law and political will." It's in our power to do something about it but we can't continue to sit on our hands.
He recommended that companies like Facebook should be liable for harm caused by content posted on their platforms. "Those waiting for the free market to regulate the Internet and social media companies will probably be waiting forever," Levin said.
Adam Kardash, partner with the legal firm Osler, Hoskin and Harcourt LLP, cautioned against unduly stifling innovation in business. In responding to the idea for "opt-in consent," he cautioned that for legitimate business activities that use data analytics, opt-in consent would often be "wholly impractical, if not impossible to implement."
One area received wide consensus: It's time that political parties are included in our privacy legislation.
Political parties are exempt from PIPEDA. They are free to collect, store and use private data, including political viewpoints, and can micro-target voters and follow their own code of conduct without oversight.
That's not good enough.
Bill C-76 was introduced recently to tighten rules around elections, including measures for campaign spending and foreign advertising. But it does not address privacy issues or consent for the collection, use, and storage of personal voter information.
That needs to change. In the short-term, Bill C-76 could be amended to bring federal political parties under PIPEDA.
The government should also consider implementing several of the important recommendations out of the all-party committee report, including giving the privacy commissioner powers of enforcement.
In the longer term, Canada should look to the European Union as a model for more comprehensive and proactive powers to safeguard Canadians' data privacy.
The technology demands that we catch up. And as Sen. Serge Joyal put it, "We must also make sure the legislation is not outdated the moment it is adopted."
Sen.Art Eggleton is a member of the Canadian Senate from Toronto. He serves as chair of the Standing Committee on Social Affairs, Science and Technology. Sen. Saint-Germain is deputy facilitator of the Independent Senators Group. She was appointed to the Senate in 2016, after two terms as the Québec ombudsman and a distinguished career in the public administration.

Torrey Smith And Baltimore: A Deep Connection
By: Kevin Eck, April 17, 2017
Ten days after signing with the Philadelphia Eagles in March, former Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith met with a group of Baltimore media members at Royal Farms Arena prior to The Torrey Smith Family Fund Charity Basketball Game.
When Smith, who played the past two seasons with the San Francisco 49ers, was asked if there had been a chance of him returning to the Ravens, he replied, "There's always a possibility of everything, but things didn't work out. … No hard feelings."
It was a diplomatic answer, but as he continued talking about being in Baltimore for the sixth annual charity event that bears his name, it was clear Smith did not leave his heart in San Francisco. He may no longer wear purple, but Smith's love for Baltimore and its people has never wavered.
"I became a man here," said Smith, who was drafted by the Ravens out of Maryland in 2011, played four seasons in Baltimore and helped the 2012 team win Super Bowl XLVII. "Both my kids were born here. It's going to be home for my family when I'm done playing."
Smith, who was born in Colonial Beach, Va., and graduated from Stafford High School in Fredericksburg, Va., sold his house in Baltimore last summer but said he still gets treated like a hometown hero whenever he comes back.
"Sometimes I can't even tell that I've been gone," Smith, 28, said with a smile. "Everyone always shows a lot of love, and I appreciate it. I meet people here, and I feel like their nephew or grandson or something. The love shown for my family has always been amazing, and it's home for us."
While with the Ravens from 2011-15, Smith caught 233 passes for 4,005 yards and 34 touchdowns, including the playoffs. Playing on a losing team in San Francisco the last two seasons, Smith's production dropped, but he should improve with Philadelphia, a team that many observers feel can be a playoff contender with more help at wide receiver. However, Smith's contributions have always transcended the numbers on a stat sheet.
Regardless of whether Smith's home stadium is on the West Coast or a couple hours from M&T Bank Stadium up I-95, the majority of his considerable charitable endeavors -- including the basketball game that features his former teammates and local celebrities -- remains in Charm City.
"When I left the Ravens, I said that our commitment to the city will still be the same," said Smith, whose charitable organization provides support for at-risk youth. "Our roles in the community are bigger than football."
Another example of Smith's commitment to the city occurred last October when he spent his bye week with the 49ers back in Baltimore co-hosting "Conversations For Change" at Dunbar High School. A panel that included Smith and his wife, Chanel, discussed issues facing young, black males in Baltimore during an interactive forum.
"Torrey realizes he can't fix the entire world, so he's going to have an impact where he knows he can have an impact," said Kevin Byrne, the Ravens' senior vice president of public and community relations. "As he lived here in Baltimore and settled here as a Raven, he saw a real need and saw that he can have an impact."
Smith's main message that day at Dunbar was: "Regardless of where you're from, what your situation is at home doesn't define you."
"When I talk to kids about some of the things I've been through, they relate," he said. "They find out we're more alike than we are different. The more people realize that, you're able to communicate more and open up."

A Mother's Best Friend
The hardships Smith faced growing up are well-documented. The eldest of seven children, he was born to a 16-year-old single mother. Monica Jenkins graduated high school as a mother of two, and she had two more kids before her 20th birthday. Jenkins was going to school and working two or three jobs, so at 4 years old, Smith became the man of the house.
"Torrey grew up helping me raise my children, so he was my best friend," Jenkins said. "He would go to school all day, do his sports, come home, make sure the kids were good and everybody's homework was done. A lot of times, I would leave the food in the refrigerator. He would come home, put the food in the oven, and he would set the timers and make sure they ate.
"Then I got married and had an abusive husband. Torrey grew up seeing abuse. So he matured a lot faster than a lot of kids."
One of young Smith's duties was fixing breakfast for his three siblings while his mother caught up on sleep. Jenkins nicknamed him "The Microwave King" for his microwave mastery.
"He fixed everything in that microwave," she said. "I had a black magic marker, and I wrote on the food what to set the timer on. Several times, I woke up and he had fixed eggs. I said, 'Boy, how'd you cook the eggs?' He said, 'In the microwave.'"
Rather than being resentful of his situation or using it as a justification to engage in antisocial behavior, Smith proved wise beyond his years.
"Why learn the hard way?" he said. "I had people in my family who made mistakes, including my mom, so that told me to do the opposite. I understood that at an early age."
Jenkins beams with pride when talking about the man her son has become and the positive influence he has had on others, including her.
"Torrey has really inspired me to change my life for the better," she said. "He inspired me to face all the inner stuff I had bound up in me that I just held in for years and years. He had just as much built up in him, but just watching him do what he does made me want to bring it out the way he's bringing it out.
"I worked my butt off until he went into the NFL, and then he said, 'I don't want you working like this anymore. I'm going to take care of you,' and that's what he did. He bought the house, bought my car. Now I'm a real estate agent, and I mentor single females who have gone through a lot of what I've gone through."
Jenkins said Smith "always had a kind heart." Having benefited from the generosity of others growing up, he began paying it forward when he was in middle school, volunteering in activities such as feeding the homeless.
"My family needed and received help, so I knew if I was ever in that position, it's something that I would do," he said.
Ralph Friedgen, Smith's coach at Maryland, said he recognized when he was recruiting Smith there was something special about him beyond his football skills.
"The character of the individual is surely what sold him on me," said Friedgen, who still keeps in touch with Smith. "I'm not surprised at what he's doing in the community. I could see that happening back when he was in high school."
While attending Maryland, Smith met Chanel, who was a member of the Terps' track team. They quickly learned they had more in common than just an ability to run fast.
"The more we got to know each other, we realized we had that connection of giving back," Chanel Smith said. "Both of us did things in the community throughout college, and we planned on doing so going forward. It wasn't too far into our relationship that we realized we both had this passion for giving back."
As they neared graduation, the couple created their nonprofit organization.
"When we first started the nonprofit, we kind of just did what we were told to do," said Chanel Smith, who has a joint degree in elementary education and sociology and worked as a teacher in Baltimore County while Torrey began his career with the Ravens. "We did back-to-school drives and holiday stuff, and we would show up and it would be great, and we would smile and give out gifts, but we always left feeling incomplete. We realized the one-off events that we were doing were cool, but they weren't really impactful, so we went back to the drawing board.
"About a year-and-a-half ago, we re-evaluated everything that we were doing. We shifted our focus so that now we're developing actual programs that really impact the community for more than one day. We are super hands-on."
One of those programs is the "L.E.V.E.L. (Leadership, Education, Vision, Effort, Love) Teen Summit," the first of which was held last summer. Torrey Smith welcomed 31 at-risk, inner-city Baltimore high school boys to the Maryland campus in College Park for a weekend retreat that focused on character-building, decision-making, goal-setting, etiquette and overcoming adversity.
"We wanted to get them onto a college campus and be able to see what it's like to stay in a dorm, to walk around campus and have that feel, while also talking with them and having meetings and speakers talking about things that they have to overcome," Torrey Smith said.
When speaking to the teens at the summit, Smith stressed the importance of values and education. He told them his goal always was to go to college and he wasn't going to let anything distract him from achieving that goal, regardless of what may have been going on around him. He said he dreamed of playing in the NFL, but he also was determined to get his college degree.
"Torrey had the opportunity to come out of college early and go to the draft," Jenkins said. "I'll never forget the day he called me about it. I said, 'Get your education.' And he said, 'That's what I'm going to do. I'm going to get my education first before I play pro football because that's what I came to college to do.'"
Smith graduated from Maryland with a degree in criminology and criminal justice. In 2015, he and Chanel enrolled in the University of Miami's executive masters of business administration program and are two classes short of completing it.
Enhancing literacy skills is another component of The Torrey Smith Family Fund. With the "Reading Oasis" program, the organization and its partners have created reading rooms in several Baltimore schools.
"Torrey Smith and his wife came to our school and created the Torrey Smith Reading Room, where they took an old room, repainted it for the kids, put a beautiful mural up on the wall and filled the room with books for the students to read," said Anthony Brooks, the principal at Gardenville Elementary School. "It has computers, nice seating. It's just an awesome place."
What touched Brooks even more than the Smiths' generosity was how down to earth and accessible they were.
"His wife actually got down on the floor and scrubbed the floor to make the room clean for the kids," Brooks said. "They also had an assembly for all the children. He saw every kid in our school. He shook all their hands and talked to them about making the right choices and the importance of reading and school. It's more than giving material things. He's giving the children the wealth of wisdom."
'The Brightest Light'
When the Ravens selected Smith in the second round of the 2011 NFL Draft, they believed the speedy receiver would be the deep threat the team had been lacking. What they knew for certain was they were getting a high-character individual.
"You want to fill your roster with special people like Torrey," Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said. "He worked hard to be the best player he could be, and he produced in a big way for the Ravens. He cared about his teammates on and off the field."
Byrne saw the latter quality exhibited on Smith's very first day as a Raven. At a news conference with the team's top two draft picks that year -- Jimmy Smith and Torrey Smith -- media members began peppering the cornerback from Colorado with questions about his stock in the draft having dropped due to the baggage he brought with him. Torrey Smith, a model citizen who doesn't smoke or drink alcohol, was quick to have his new teammate's back.
"All of a sudden, Torrey interrupts the press conference and says, 'Hey, I've spent some time with this guy. We were roommates at an all-star game. He's a good guy. You guys are all going to find this out, but I know this already,'" Byrne said. "I remember running up to the draft room and telling John Harbaugh, 'Torrey Smith is going to be one of the great leaders in our franchise. It was bold the way he put himself out there.'"
Byrne also has been impressed by how involved Torrey Smith is with his charitable organization.
"He's not someone who sponsors from afar or who has ideas and hopes others follow through," Byrne said. "He shows up and does the hard work."
Smith -- a three-time nominee for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award, which recognizes players who make a significant positive impact on their community -- quickly became one of the Ravens' go-to guys when a player was needed to make an appearance at a community event.
"When it was important to do something in the community and we wanted the brightest light out there, he was the guy we wanted, and he always said yes," Byrne said. "There was one assistant coach who wondered if Torrey was doing too much. He said, 'I keep seeing the clips, and he seems to be somewhere almost every day. And on his day off, he's doing multiple things.' It's just who he is. He really is sincere, and he's got great energy. He can't sit still, but with that energy he's doing something good. You are blessed to know Torrey Smith."
Honoring His Brother
It's obvious Smith takes his philanthropy and responsibility as a role model seriously, but there's a fun side to him as well. At his charity basketball game -- which he refers to as a "fun-raiser," pun intended -- Smith flashed his infectious smile often that Sunday afternoon while shooting hoops and joking around with the likes of former Ravens teammates Ed Reed, Ray Rice, Anquan Boldin, Jacoby Jones and Tyrod Taylor.
Smith said he's humbled by his friends donating their time.
"They could be anywhere," he said. "They could be on the beach somewhere or working out, but they're here giving their time to the community and the kids love it."
Reed said all it took to get him to travel from Georgia to Baltimore to play in the game was a simple phone call from Smith asking him to come. Reed joked he even played hurt.
"When Torrey called me, I was looking forward to it," Reed said. "And then Friday I was playing in the backyard with my son, I sprained my ankle, and I called Torrey on Saturday and said, 'Hey man, I broke my foot. I'm not going to make it.' Eight hours later, I'm walking on it, so I'm like, 'OK, it's all right.' This is what it's about. I get to see my brothers and be back in the Baltimore community."
For Smith, the most special part of the event takes place at halftime, when he awards college scholarships in his late brother Tevin Jones' name to four high school seniors.
Jones was 19 when he was killed in a motorcycle accident Sept. 22, 2012. Less than 24 hours later, Smith was thrust into the national spotlight when he caught six passes for 127 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Ravens to an emotional, 31-30 victory against the New England Patriots in a Sunday night game.
"The way the city helped my family respond to his death helped us ease our pain through the love and support they showed here, so it's fitting that we continue to give that love here," Smith said.
Jones had been planning to attend Germanna Community College in Fredericksburg, Va., in January 2013.
"This is Torrey's way of keeping his brother alive," Jenkins said. "Being able to help somebody else's child go to college because his brother didn't get to."
Smith, who remains the most productive homegrown Ravens wide receiver, may never catch another pass in a Ravens uniform, but he undoubtedly will continue to make his presence felt in Baltimore for years to come.
"He cares about this community, and he keeps coming back to make it better," Harbaugh said. "When it comes to being a great, giving person, he talks the talk and walks the walk."

Q: How to call method from jar file in JSP? I have Java program in that I have database connectivity, and few methods to be call to run SQL query. I generated jar file for that java file using Apache ANT.
now I imported that jar file in my JSP. now how to call method executeQuery(String sql) from that jar file which is present in that Java file.

A: In order to use external .jars in your webapp, these JARs must be placed under WEB-INF/lib folder and you want to call a method - executeQuery(String sql) defined in XXXXX class.
If that type XXXX is public and

*

*Method executeQuery(String sql) is public static then call this method via
XXXX.executeQuery(param) syntax;

*If it is an public instance method then create an object of XXXX type and call it.

A: Why import a separate jar file to perform this you should use
SQL TAG LIBRARY

A: You shouldn't do that in a JSP (presentation layer), but if you really want that you have to import the class/classes with the following line in JSP:
<%@ page import="package1.myClass1,package2.myClass2,....,packageN.myClassN" %>

A: firstly place your external .jar to the lib folder of your application (WEB-INF/lib) then simply you have to import that class or package of the jar file which you want to use by using import tag of the jsp.
<%@ page import="yourPackage.ClassName" %>

and now you can simply call your method on the object of that class as you do in simple java program

As there are more and more photographers around the world, photojournalists are faced with dwindling possibilities and an industry reluctant to pay for their work. Photojournalists are venturing into new markets to diversify income to keep producing work and tell new stories. What are the implications of such developments on the quality of the work, on the stories being told, and other ethical considerations?
Speakers: Nina Berman, Tanya Habjouqa (NOOR), Hripsimé Visser (Stedelijk Museum), Emeric Glayse (Carmagniac Photojournalism Award), and Tristan Lund (Art Consultant, Curator for the Incite Project).

Double Fatality Crash
On February 9th, 2019, at about 6:40 AM, Aurora Police Officers responded to a single vehicle crash in the area of South Chambers Road and East Hampden Avenue. When they arrived, they determined that a 2018 Nissan Sentra was traveling north on South Chambers Road at a high rate of speed. As the Sentra crossed over East Hampden Avenue, it started to lose control and left the roadway. It struck a tree on the east side of the street and was cut in half. The driver and rear seat passenger were both pronounced deceased at the scene. The front seat passenger managed to climb out of the wreckage and left the scene before Officers arrived. He turned up seven hours later at a local hospital with significant injuries.
The identities of all partys involved in this crash are not being released at this time. There were no other vehicles involved. Speed is most certainly a factor in this crash. The Traffic Unit is handling this crash. The Aurora Police Department is asking that anyone with information regarding this crash contact us.

Fatal Auto/Pedestrian Crash Involving a Child
On Tuesday February 5th, 2019 at about 8:20 AM, Aurora Police and Fire responded to E. Iliff Ave and S. Vaughn Way for an accident involving a pickup truck and a pedestrian. Once there they found that a 12 year old girl had attempted to cross Iliff and had been struck by the pickup.
The driver of the pickup and other witnesses immediately stopped to render aid and call 911. The girl was transported to a local hospital with critical injuries. Despite the medical care she received, she passed away today as a result of her injuries.
The preliminary investigation found that the girl was on her way to school and not using the signaled intersections to cross E. Iliff Ave. She was half-way across Iliff and stepped off the median and into traffic when she was struck by the westbound pickup. There is no evidence of speed or other factors on the part of the pickup driver involved contributing to the cause of this crash. The driver of the pickup has been cooperative and is understandably upset about this tragic accident.
The names of the parties involved in this accident are not being released at this time.

Fuel Tanker Accident
On 01/25/19 at about 0859 hours, Officers responded along with AFR to the report of an accident involving a semi truck fuel tanker at Chambers and Smith Rd.
Investigation indicated that a semi truck was NB on Chambers Rd when the trailer hauling diesel fuel detached from the semi while going over the railroad tracks at the location. One of the drip lines from the trailer ruptured, which resulted in a spill of about 3 gallons of diesel fuel. After detaching, the trailer came to rest on the railroad tracks.
All four directions for the intersection of Smith and Chambers, had to be shut down. Also, traffic for the RTD A-line and Union Pacific Railways, had to be stopped.
The trailer had to be towed from the location and fire personnel cleaned the spilled fuel. The driver of the truck cooperated with the investigation and was charged with Spilling Load on a Highway.
There were no injuries, and no other involved vehicles. The intersection was opened up and rail traffic resumed at about 1035 hours.

Fatal Crash at Chambers and Belleview
On December 30th at about 6:12 PM, Aurora Police and Fire responded to the intersection of S. Chambers Rd and E. Belleview Ave for a crash.
Responding units found that a Toyota van and a Lincoln SUV had collided in the intersection. The van was occupied by two people and the Lincoln had one occupant. They were all transported to local hospitals. The passenger of the Toyota died as a result of injuries sustained in the crash.
Investigators from the Aurora Police Traffic Unit are working to determine the cause of the crash. At this time it appears that the Toyota was traveling south on Chambers and the Lincoln was turning left from northbound Chambers onto westbound Belleview. The investigation will focus on determining which vehicle had the right-of-way. Neither speed nor intoxication appear to be factors in the crash.
The identities of the people involved are not being released at this time. The Arapahoe County Coroner may release the identity of the deceased at a later date.

Fatal Crash Involving RTD Bus
On December 30, 2018 at about 6:42 AM, Aurora Police and Fire responded to E. 33rd Ave. and N. Oakland St. on a report of a crash involving a pickup and a RTD bus.

Readers' Review
Review of "The Creeping Shadow" by Jonathan Stroud
Review by Aidan O.
This review was written by a volunteer teen book reviewer and may contain spoilers of the reviewed novel.
For more information on how to become a teen book reviewer, email libraryoutreach@auroragov.org.
Overall rating: 4.5/5 stars
The Creeping Shadow is the fourth book in Jonathan Stroud's New York Times bestselling pentalogy, "Lockwood & Co." It is set in modern-day London, in a world very similar to ours, but with one key difference- the Problem. The Problem is that the dead are coming back as ghosts to plague the living, and they are very dangerous. To fight the restless dead, agencies have sprung up around the city. People pay agencies to exterminate ghosts. Each ghost is a new case. However, only the young are capable of seeing and interacting with the dead, so they are the agents.
The book follows the story of 15-year old agent Lucy. Having recently left her agency, Lockwood & Co., Lucy is a freelance agent who agencies hire to help them on cases. Partner to her is a ghost contained in a jar with the rare quality of being able to speak with the living. Ironically, her former agency needs help and hires Lucy for a case. Returning to her apartment afterwards, Lucy discovers she has been robbed of her partner in trade- the ghost in a jar. She has a suspect and seeks him out. There, she gleans the information that he wasn't the thief, but he told some anonymous men of the jar's whereabouts for money. Lucy teams up with her former colleagues from Lockwood and Co.(Anthony, George, and Holly) to find the ghost. As a form of advance payment, Lucy agrees to help them with a case. They discover the source of the ghost to be in a facility owned by the prestigious Rotwell agency. To eliminate a ghost, you must eliminate its source. Lucy and her companions sneak in and discover a group of many different sources together, among them Lucy's stolen ghost, which she retrieves. As a source is a link between the worlds of the living and the dead, a cluster of them forms a hole to the other side. Exploring the other side is extremely dangerous and very illegal; Anthony alerts the authorities and the Rotwell agency is shut down. Lucy rejoins the company. While taking on the case, Lockwood & Co. learns a few things about the other side, and discovers a dark secret of Penelope Fittes, head of the largest agency in London…
I thought The Creeping Shadow was a worthy addition to the series. Its suspense and mystery are very alluring and balanced out by witty humor and fascinating tidbits about a world with the Problem. It summits with a jaw-dropping cliffhanger that makes me want to read the next book.
I would recommend this book to young adult readers who are fans of fantasy, action packed novels and imagination. The Creeping Shadow not only tells a story but introduces the reader to an imaginative, creative, intriguing world. It has a creepy edge, but this is balanced out by dry humor.

On Tuesday, January 15, 2019 at 1:59 a.m. the Aurora Police Department Public Safety Communications Department received a 911 call from an occupant of a residence at 1473 South Kenton Street, who was reporting a party inside the home was armed with a firearm and acting erratically.
As officers arrived they could hear active gunfire. Officers were confronted by an armed adult male who was wearing body armor. The armed male exchanged gunfire with officers. The armed party was struck by gunfire which stopped the ongoing and active threat.
Soon thereafter, officers discovered another adult male suffering from apparent gunshot wounds.
Both the armed party and injured adult male found lying on the floor were transported to a local hospital where they both succumbed to their injuries.
The decedents will be positively identified by the Arapahoe County Coroner's Office after notifications are made to next of kin.
Officers present at the scene were equipped with and properly utilized department issued body-worn cameras.
This investigation is being handled by the Major Crimes/Homicide Unit in conjunction with the Denver Police Department. This is due to the passage of Senate Bill 15-219 which requires law enforcement agencies to team up with neighboring agencies to investigate officer involved shootings.
Police are asking anyone who might have witnessed this incident to call Agent Randy Hansen with the Major Crimes/Homicide Unit at 303-739-6710.

Kezar Stadium is an outdoor athletics stadium in San Francisco, California, located adjacent to Kezar Pavilion in the southeastern corner of Golden Gate Park. It is the former home of the San Francisco 49ers and the Oakland Raiders (first AFL season only) of the National Football League (NFL) and of the San Francisco Dragons of Major League Lacrosse. It currently serves as the home of San Francisco City FC of USL League Two.
Kezar also hosts amateur and recreation sports leagues, as well as numerous San Francisco high school football games (including the city championship, known popularly as the "Turkey Bowl").

In 1920, Jack Spaulding proposed an athletics stadium for San Francisco, seating 50,000. Many business leaders in the city backed him, as it would keep San Francisco level with other cities with large stadiums. Areas under consideration for the stadium were 7th & Harrison Streets, Ocean Shore, and the Central Park grounds.[3]
In 1922, the San Francisco Park Commission accepted a $100,000 gift from the estate of Mary Kezar to build a memorial in honor of her mother and uncles, who were pioneers in the area. After the City and County of San Francisco appropriated an additional $200,000, the stadium was built in a year. Dedication ceremonies were on May 2, 1925, and featured a two-mile (3.2 km) footrace between Ville Ritola and Paavo Nurmi of Finland, two of the great runners of the era. A little over a month later, the new stadium hosted the USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships.
The stadium had many uses in the 1930s. In addition to track and field competitions, Kezar Stadium hosted motorcycle racing, auto racing, rugby, lacrosse, soccer, baseball, boxing, cricket, and football. In September 1932, the Australian Cricket Team played a North California all-star team in the Australians' 56-game tour of the U.S. and Canada. The stadium was also home to several colleges (Santa Clara, USF, St. Mary's), Lowell High School, and the now-defunct San Francisco Polytechnic High School. In 1926, the stadium also became the home of the East–West Shrine Game.

In 1928, the city high school championship game between cross-town rivals San Francisco Polytechnic and Lowell drew more than 50,000—still the record for a high school football game in northern California. Local Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory plays most of their home games at Kezar. The Bruce-Mahoney rivalry football game between St. Ignatius College Preparatory and Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory is held at the new (smaller) stadium.
The annual East-West Shrine Game of 1931 was replaced by a raucous Knights of Columbus game featuring the Savoldi All-Stars. Prescott Sullivan, a San Francisco Chronicle sportswriter, recounted the day's events in his January 26 column. " "Jumping Joe" Savoldi gave some very sound reasons why Knute Rockne calls him "modern football's greatest fullback" yesterday when he led a team composed largely of California and U.S.C. stars to a 13-0 victory over Ernie Nevers and a supporting cast of St. Mary's players at Kezar Stadium. More than 30,000 customers put the Knights of Columbus' grid finales over in a big way and saw "Jumping Joe" and his playmates cinch their victory with two spectacular fourth period touchdowns. These runs, end to end, constituted a very sizable day's work for "Jumping Joe," and the crowd showed it's [sic] deep appreciation by mobbing him at the finish of the ball game. Savoldi managed to escape by throwing his headgear to the milling throng, and long after the players had left the field of action, Joe's helmet was still at the center of a battle royal. More than 200 enthusiastic souvenir hunters joined in the fight, which continued to rage unabated outside the stadium after police had managed to chase the combatants from the big bowl. Numerous black eyes were exchanged before mounted police finally quelled the uprising. Such is Savoldi's fame!"
Stanford University played four of its home football games at Kezar: one in 1928 and three in 1942. Stanford was also part of the first-ever major college football double header in 1940, which featured Stanford–San Francisco and Santa Clara–Utah.[4]
Kezar Stadium was the first home of the San Francisco 49ers[5] and Oakland Raiders, as well many NFL Hall of Famers, historical NFL games, and the first "alley-oop."[6] The Raiders played at Kezar for their first four home games in 1960, and at Candlestick Park during the remainder of their first two seasons,[7] before Frank Youell Field was built as a temporary facility in Oakland. Defensive end Jim Marshall of the visiting Minnesota Vikings had his famous "wrong way run" at Kezar in 1964, against the 49ers on October 25.[8]
The 49ers played the final NFL game at Kezar in early 1971, losing the 1970 NFC Championship Game to the Dallas Cowboys 17–10 on January 3.[9] The 49ers moved to the more modern and accessible Candlestick Park (1960–2015) for the 1971 season, and played there for 43 years, through 2013.
Kezar Stadium was also the home field for the San Francisco Stingrayz women's professional football team from 2003–2005, until the team was forced to end their season due to a bus accident which injured many players. The Stingrayz were one of the Bay Area's women's tackle football teams in the Women's Professional Football League, and then the Independent Women's Football League.
Months after the 49ers' departure, several scenes from the 1971 film Dirty Harry were filmed at and above the stadium. The film's fictional antagonist, Scorpio (played by Andrew Robinson), worked as the caretaker at the stadium and lived under the grandstand.[6]
With the loss of professional football in 1971, the stadium became a popular outdoor concert venue, and its proximity to the Haight-Ashbury District helped with the transition. Notable performers at Kezar included Led Zeppelin, The Doobie Brothers, Jefferson Starship, Tower of Power, Joan Baez, Grateful Dead, The New Riders of the Purple Sage, Santana, Waylon Jennings, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and Graham Central Station.
Demolition and reconstruction

With pending demolition, the bleacher planks of Kezar Stadium were sold off to fans at a party in April 1989.[10][11] In June, the stadium was demolished and rebuilt with a much smaller seating capacity of 10,000. The upgrades included an eight-lane, all-weather track and a grass athletic infield suitable for soccer, football, and lacrosse.[12]
During the reconstruction, the field and track configurations were shifted several degrees counterclockwise, to move the stadium away from Frederick Street. The evidence for this can be seen by examining photos of the tunnel entrance at the east end of the field, which used to be exactly on the long axis of the track. A replica of the original concrete arch bearing the name "Kezar Stadium" was built on the west side of the stadium as a tribute to the original structure. A plaque of NFL Hall of Famer Bob St. Clair, a San Francisco native who played 11 pro seasons (1953–63) with the 49ers, plus his high school (S.F. Poly) and most of his college career (USF) at Kezar Stadium, is built into the replica arch.
2014 to 2015 renovation
Kezar Stadium was closed for renovations from September 29, 2014 until March 13, 2015. The $3.2-million renovation included the replacement of the running track surface, new entry walk paving, upgraded sound system, new perimeter walkways and curbs, installation of new Mondo running track surface and striping for nine 42" lanes. In addition, 1,000 historic Candlestick Park Stadium seats were installed for the public to enjoy. The renovation was funded by the City's Capital Planning General Fund. Mayor Edwin M. Lee helped re-open the stadium with a warm-up run.[13]
In December 2016, 4,000 additional historic Candlestick seats were acquired and installed at Kezar. The seats were paid for by the San Francisco Deltas as a part of a $1-million improvement the team agreed upon to make use of the stadium.[14]
Soccer and other sports
In 1967 it served as the home stadium for the San Francisco Golden Gate Gales of the United Soccer Association.[15]
With the 2006 West Coast expansion of Major League Lacrosse, Kezar Stadium once again became a home to a professional team, the San Francisco Dragons. In October 2006, United Soccer Leagues (USL) and Spanish football club Deportivo Alavés announced that the new pro soccer team, named California Victory, would play their 2007 home games at Kezar. The Victory played in the USL's First Division, one level below Major League Soccer. However, Alaves later withdrew their support and the team folded.
Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory, a nearby Catholic high school uses the field for their home football games. Mission High School also uses the field for home games. Kezar has also been the host of several Northern California Semi-pro football championship games.
In 2010, 2011, and 2012, Stanford University held its spring football game at Kezar. For the 2012 and 2016 San Francisco Olympic bids, Kezar was designated to host field hockey had San Francisco been chosen in either year.
From 2001 to 2016, Kezar was the home field for San Francisco City FC, a supporter-owned club playing in the PDL.
In 2017, Kezar became the home field for the San Francisco Deltas, a professional soccer team playing in the North American Soccer League (NASL). The Deltas have contributed over $1-million in renovations to the stadium. However, Deltas announced that they would be concluding operations and the team folded.
In February 2018, San Francisco City FC announced they would return to Kezar Stadium for the 2018 PDL season.
The San Francisco Nighthawks, founded in 1995 and a member of the Women's Premier Soccer League, play their home games at Kezar. The Bay Area Breeze of the W-League started play there in 2013.[16]
Kezar is also the home to the annual San Francisco Fall Lacrosse Classic, an NCAA Division I fall ball game started in 2009 to benefit the Bay Area Youth Sports Foundation. The first event was between Brown and North Carolina. It was the first Division I men's lacrosse played in Northern California. North Carolina beat Brown 13–5 in front of a crowd of more than 4,500. The 2010 event featured lacrosse powerhouse Johns Hopkins and Notre Dame on Saturday, October 16, 2010. Notre Dame beat Hopkins 10–7. The third installment took place on Saturday, October 8, 2011 and featured the University of Denver and Harvard University. The fourth installment took place Sunday October 21, 2012 in a match between Lehigh and Ohio State.[17] As a direct result of the San Francisco Fall Lacrosse Classic, the BAYS Foundation has made over $225,000 in grants to local youth sports and educations programs for under-resourced children throughout the Bay Area.[17]
In 2013, Kezar was home to the Major League Ultimate (MLU) team, the San Francisco Dogfish.[18]
Kezar was home to the San Francisco GAA football league (Gaelic football). In 2004 it served as the home of the San Francisco Freedom, the city's Pro Cricket team.
