The Malaysian Airlines MH17 Crash: Financial Warfare against Russia, Multibillion Dollar Bonanza for Wall Street
By Prof Michel Chossudovsky
Global Research, July 22, 2014
Theme: Global Economy
While the mainstream media casually accuses Moscow without evidence of having orchestrated the shoot down of Malaysian Airlines MH17 in liaison with the Donesk rebels, the backlash of the crisis on international financial markets and on Russia's financial system has passed virtually unnoticed.
Moreover, the political threats and insinuations directed against the Russian Federation in the wake of the July 17 disaster, have been coupled with a renewed wave of economic sanctions directed against major Russian corporations and financial institutions.
Inside Information and Foreknowledge
The conduct of speculative operations both prior and in the wake of the July 17 crash, is also a major consideration: In the functioning of World financial markets, terror events, natural disasters as well as major tragedies such as MH17 will invariably have an impact on the short term behavior of financial markets including major stock markets, the foreign exchange market as well the energy and commodities markets.
It should be noted that foreknowledge of a terror event such as the MH17 crash of July 17 over Eastern Ukraine's warzone, offers an opportunity to the perpetrators as well as those who have advanced knowledge of the terror event to conduct profitable speculative transactions on various financial markets. Cui bono? Wall Street or Moscow's Financial Establishment?
In other words, those who planned the attack on MH17 (including their political and economic sponsors) had in their possession valuable and confidential information which could be used in large scale speculative undertakings, including options trade on the DJIA, the Moscow Stock exchange (MICEX), foreign exchange markets, not to mention speculative trade (e.g. put options) on airline stocks.
What is described above is routine in the frequent conduct of "risk free" speculative trade by major financial institutions.
Major financial actors who had foreknowledge of the MH17 event of July 17 would have made billions of windfall gains in speculative transactions. With foreknowledge of the crash, institutional speculators would be in a position to accurately "predict" the short term decline of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and other major stock markets, commodity and forex indexes and act accordingly, placing speculative bets through the use of different financial instruments.
Moreover, there is also an overlap between Wall Street and the corporate financial media: Timely news releases by Bloomberg, the Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, etc. in the wake of a major international event often exert a decisive influence on the actual movement of major financial indicators. At the same time, these powerful financial media –which influence investors' perceptions regarding future market trends– overlap symbiotically with partner interests on Wall Street which are directly involved in undertaking major transactions. In fact, the corporate financial media are invariably major actors on Wall Street or the City of London. Who are the major shareholders of the WSJ, the Financial Times or the Economist? Is there a conflict of interest?
The New York Stock Exchange
In the wake of the July 17 crash of MH17, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) declined from its 17150 peak and subsequently bounced back (see chart below). Foreknowledge of the MH17 would have allowed the reaping of financial gains on the short term movement of the Dow from one day to the next.

The London Stock Market on July 17
While the NYSE was open on the 17th after the disaster over Ukraine, the London Market Stock opened up on Friday the 18th and experienced a short term slump in market values, rebounding at the end of trade on the 18th.
London Stock Exchange FTSE All Share Index
The Moscow Stock Exchange
The tragic event of July 17, coupled with immediate accusations directed against Russia, contributed to precipitating the tumble of the Moscow stock exchange (see chart below).
While European stock markets were also affected, the most dramatic decline was recorded on the Moscow Stock Exchange, with Moscow's MICEX index falling by 2.3 per cent in one day and its dollar-traded related index, the RTS index, dropping by 3.8 per cent. (Reuters, July 18, 2014) (see chart below)
Those who had advanced knowledge of the MH17 crash and the likely accusations directed against Russia by president Obama would no doubt have placed their bets on a decline of both the MICEX and the Russian ruble.

The Sanctions Regime
The economic sanctions regime initiated by the Obama administration had targeted the Russia's arms industry, its major energy giants including state owned Gazprom and Rosneft as well as the privately owned gas conglomerate Novatek. Major Russian financial institutions were also the object of sanctions.
In a bitter irony, late Wednesday July 16th (ET), one day before the MH17 tragedy, the Obama administration announced a new set of sweeping sanctions directed against the Russian Federation:
[L]ate Wednesday [July 16, 2014] , President Barack Obama had announced fresh sanctions targeting Russia's large-cap companies that included bellwether energy and banking companies. … "We have to see concrete actions, and not just words that Russia in fact is committed to trying to end this conflict along the Russia-Ukraine border," Obama stated at the White House after announcing fresh sanctions on Russia's large-caps. (MH17 Crash, Fresh US Sanctions: Beware of Funds with Russia Exposure, Zaks, July 18, 2014
It is worth noting that Rosneft has a gas deal with Exxon Mobil. The endgame of the sanctions regime is economic conquest, namely to weaken Russia's energy giants with a view to ultimately modifying their ownership structure:
That the United States went for such a big company [i.e. sanctions] shows that it means business. Rosneft has outstanding debts of about $70 billion, close to its market capitalization, forcing it to seek persistent refinancing — and, leaving aside some Russian and Chinese financing, only the international dollar markets can provide sufficient financing.
Rosneft will have to reduce its capital expenditures because of the U.S. sanctions." (Anders Aslund, U.S. responded to MH17 before airliner was shot down, Sanctions imposed after Russia delivered arms that brought down plane, Market Watch, July 18, 2014)
Following Obama's timely announcement on the 16th of July, confirming a new wave of sanctions, the decline of stock values on Moscow's Stock Exchange started at the opening of trade on July 17th prior to the crash of MH17.
Currency Markets: Decline of the Ruble
Currency markets were also affected. While the event did not precipitate a significant decline of the Malaysian ringgit, the Russian ruble fell by 1.8 per cent against the US dollar, its biggest one-day decline since June 2013. (Reuters, July 18, 2014). In the wake of the July 17 crash in Ukraine, the Russian ruble has continued to decline (see chart below).
Ongoing threats pertaining to Russia's alleged role in the downing of MH17 not to mention the implementation of new sanctions against Russia announced on the 16 of July, have resulted in a significant decline of the Russian ruble. It should be understood that the Russian central bank must have acted to prevent a further decline of the ruble, most probably using its forex reserves to counteract the speculative attack against the ruble, leading to a significant capital outflow of Russia's dollar reserves.

Decline in Airline Stocks
There was a significant decline in airline stock values quoted on NASDAQ on July 17th following the crash of MH17 (see chart below) characterized by a dip on the 17th and a recovery on the 18th. Those who had foreknowledge of the MH17 crash could have placed safe speculative bets reaping substantial profits.
As outlined at our introduction the issue of foreknowledge is of crucial significance. By definition the criminal perpetrators of the MH17 crash had foreknowledge which could have been used by partner financial entities involved in speculative trade. This particular dimension of MH17 foreknowledge –reminiscent of the short selling of airline stock in the days preceding 9/11–requires further analysis and investigation. It should be a component of the criminal investigation into the July 17 crash itself.

The Fate of Malaysian Airlines
With the mysterious disappearance of MH370 in March, the number of MH passengers had dropped by 60 per cent. Malaysian Airline System's (MAS) financial situation had become increasingly fragile.
Following the MH17 crash, Malaysian Airlines System is up for complete privatization. "MAS is almost 70 per cent owned by the government investment vehicle Kazanah Nasional, which earlier this year expressed interest in offloading part of its holding." (ABC New Australia, July 21, 2014)
The annual decline in MAS stock is of the order of 25.8 (see chart below)

Since the KonMarie method was first published in the "Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up", many a closet has been ruthlessly purged of clothes that do not "spark joy". While this is arguably a luxury only the wealthy can afford, there is something to be said for investing in quality pieces. Free from searching through hundreds of never worn garments, a capsule wardrobe leaves you with a few pieces you love, and look great in.
For years we've been trained to buy more for less, with fast fashion driving a global apparel industry worth 3 trillion, 3,000 billion dollars annually (not a typo).
The problems with disposable fashion are many. We all know that there is a very high price to be paid for that $9.00 dress. Slavery continues in the cotton fields of Uzbekistan, where high pesticides ravage the health of workers, and leaves acres of land poisoned and barren. Who can forget the 2013 Rana Plaza building collapse, (used by cheap clothing retailers, including Joe Mimran of Joe Fresh)? 1,134 garment workers, mostly women, were killed. It's just ugly.
The capsule wardrobe, while pricey, offers an alternative. Carefully selecting timeless, quality pieces is not a new idea. Gabrielle Chanel's "Little Black Dress" was designed for exactly that purpose – a basic look that could withstand decades of wear, and take women from work to dinner with a few changes in accessories. In her words, "Fashion fades, only style remains".
Grayes is a new Canadian company designing a line of professional clothing. While in law school, Stephanie Ray felt awkward in power suits that didn't quite fit her body or contemporary vibe. (Anyone else wonder why law schools are graduating incredible fashion designers, like Shawn Hewson and Ruth Promislow of Bustle? Does the pain of bad Bay Street suits send them running like banshees in search of style)?
Ray uses clean, tailored lines with a dash of Icelandic minimalism in her pieces. These are designed to be easily mixed for a five day wardrobe. A pair of trousers, a dress, a couple of blouses, and a blazer will get you from Monday through Friday with ease. Bringing life to the greys, blacks and pinstripes is easy with vibrant scarves, statement jewelry, and on-trend make-up.
Designed, cut and sewn in Canada, a Grayes wardrobe is an investment for most, but running between $200 and $350.00, the mid-range prices are a far cry from the $2,000.00 you'll spend at Gucci.
Few can afford to buy an entire capsule wardrobe. But if you're used to cashing out with $150.00 worth of fast fashion every month at HM, or Forever 21, consider a slow build. Try purchasing one quality piece that's made in Canada from local designers each season, and adding to your capsule slowly. Your mornings will be less stressful, and your clothes might spark joy.

Q: Django Admin Page - Export fields + callable fields Django Version: 1.11
Python: 2.7
Package: django-import-export
I am attempting to export the "callable" fields for a Django Admin page. (Reference: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.list_display)
In their example, they have a "callable" for their PersonAdmin list_display.
def upper_case_name(obj):
    return ("%s %s" % (obj.first_name, obj.last_name)).upper()
upper_case_name.short_description = 'Name'

class PersonAdmin(ExportMixin, admin.ModelAdmin):
        list_display = (upper_case_name,)

For the Resource, I thought I would also be able export the callable field.
class PersonResource(resources.ModelResource):

    class Meta:
    model = Person
    fields = ( "first_name",
               "last_name",
               "upper_case_name", )

However, I will get Person has no field named upper_case_name.
Is there a way to export callable fields?
From the documentation, it does look like you can export fields that do not exist.
https://django-import-export.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html
Their example was:
from import_export.fields import Field

class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):
    full_title = Field()

    class Meta:
        model = Book

    def dehydrate_full_title(self, book):
        return '%s by %s' % (book.name, book.author.name)

I replicated this and tried:
class PersonResource(resources.ModelResource):
    upper_case_name = Field()

    class Meta:
        model = Person

    def dehydrate_upper_case_name(self, obj):
        return ("%s %s" % (obj.first_name, obj.last_name)).upper()

I attempted to do the same thing but I would get the error Person has no field named upper_case_name.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

A: Looks like there are two ways to do this:
Method 1
From: https://django-import-export.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api_fields.html

*

*attribute – A string of either an instance attribute or callable off the object.
Add a callable function in the model.
    class Person(models.Model):

        def get_upper_case_name(self):
            return ("%s %s" % (obj.first_name, obj.last_name)).upper()
        upper_case_name = property(get_upper_case_name)

Now within the PersonResource file, declare the new custom field.
class PersonResource(resources.ModelResource):
    upper_case_name = Field(attribute="get_upper_case_name", column_name="Upper Case Name")

    class Meta:
    model = Person
    fields = ( "first_name",
               "last_name",
               )

Method 2
This can all be done in the Resource:
class PersonResource(resources.ModelResource):
    upper_case_name = fields.Field(column_name="Upper Case Name")

    def dehydrate_upper_case_name(self, obj):
        return ("%s %s" % (obj.first_name, obj.last_name)).upper()

    class Meta:
        model = Person
        fields = ( "first_name",
                   "last_name",
                   "upper_case_name"
                   )

Cheers!

"It is hard not to notice the sharp increase in income inequality experienced by the vast majority of countries from the 1980s," the OECD report says. (Photo: Dean Chahim/flickr/cc)
Global Inequality Reaches Levels Not Seen in Nearly 200 Years
Growing wealth gap "one of the most significant—and worrying—features of the development of the world economy" since early-19th century, OECD says
Deirdre Fulton
Global income inequality has returned to levels recorded in the 1820s--when the Industrial Revolution produced sizable wealth gaps between the rich and poor--according to a new report released Thursday by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).
The sweeping study, "How Was Life? Global Well-Being Since 1820," uses historical data from eight world regions to present for the first time "systematic evidence" of trends in areas such as health, education, inequality, the environment, and personal security over the past 200 years.
The report reveals that great strides have been made in some areas such as literacy, life expectancy, and gender inequality. "People's well-being has generally progressed since the early 20th century across a large part of the world," it reads.
But while income inequality, as measured by pre-tax household income among individuals within a country, fell between the end of the 19th century until around 1970, it began to rise markedly at that point, perhaps in response to globalization.
"The enormous increase of income inequality on a global scale is one of the most significant--and worrying--features of the development of the world economy in the past 200 years," the authors write. "It is hard not to notice the sharp increase in income inequality experienced by the vast majority of countries from the 1980s. There are very few exceptions to this."
In a speech Wednesday in Strasbourg, France before the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, OECD secretary-general Angel Gurria called on world leaders to "strengthen our efforts to reduce inequality."
He declared:
The financial and economic crisis has exacerbated rising inequality and fueled a social crisis. In OECD countries the income of the top 10 percent of the population is 9.5 times that of the bottom 10 percent, up by more than 30 percent in 25 years. Anchored poverty has increased by approximately 2 percentage points between 2007 and 2011, with much larger increases in countries that have experienced the deepest and longest downturns. The number of those living in households without any income from work has doubled in Greece, Ireland, and Spain. And worryingly for our future, the youth have now replaced the elderly as the group experiencing the greatest risk of income poverty.

Ray Fisher (actor)
Ray Fisher (born September 8, 1987) is an American actor, who played on stage in the comedy The Good, the Bad, and the Confused, as Muhammad Ali in Will Power's play Fetch Clay, Make Man.
Fisher at the 2017 San Diego Comic-Con
(1987-09-08) September 8, 1987 (age 31)
Baltimore, Maryland, U.S.
6 ft 3 in (191 cm)
He is most known for his portrayal of Victor Stone / Cyborg in the DC Extended Universe appearing first in a cameo in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) and then in a lead role in Justice League (2017).
Fisher was born in Baltimore, Maryland.[1] He grew up in Lawnside, New Jersey and attended Haddon Heights High School.[2] It was there that he was introduced to theatre by his high school English teacher. He was active in the school's theatre and choir program and sang in his church's choir. An English teacher introduced him to acting and he auditioned for a school musical in his sophomore year.
After high school, Fisher attended the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York.[3]
In 2008, Fisher began performing in the Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey's "Shakespeare Live" program, which presents professional theater performances at schools throughout the New York metropolitan area. He eventually obtained the role of Tom Robinson in the program's production of To Kill a Mockingbird, which he had first read in high school. On how he approached the role, he stated: "I tried to show his compassion. Here's a guy who's been in jail for seven months for a crime he didn't commit. He's had everything taken away from him. He can't feed his wife. He can't feed his kids. Yet he doesn't badmouth anyone for what's happened to him. Partly it's because he can't. But I think that even when he's alone, he doesn't have bad thoughts about these people other than he's sorry for them. That's admirable. It's a quality I wish I could say I had. I know if this happened today, I'd have a lot to say."[4]
In 2009, Fisher acted in William Shakespeare's play Macbeth at the Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey in Madison, New Jersey at Drew University.[citation needed] Fisher gained 20 pounds of muscle in order to portray Muhammad Ali in the 2013 Off-Broadway production of Fetch Clay, Make Man at the New York Theatre Workshop in New York City going from 193 to 212 pounds.[5] Fisher stated about his workout, "Ali never lifted weights. But he had a naturally bigger frame than I did, so in order for me to get to his size I had to lift — bench presses, curls, squats, calf raises. I had to get used to a new body."[6]
Fisher had a cameo appearance as the superhero Victor Stone / Cyborg in the 2016 superhero film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.[7] He reprised the role in the ensemble Justice League (2017), and will appear again in its sequel, as well as the upcoming film Flashpoint.[8] He also has a contract to appear as the character in other films, including his own solo Cyborg film.

Chaitanya Venkateswaran takes charge of British High Commission for a day
On the international Girl Child day, celebrated on 11 October every year, a competition "High Commissioner for a Day" is conducted annually since 2017 by the British High Commission, which invites young Indian women aged 18 to 23 years to take over as their most senior diplomat.
Out of a total of 215 entries, one was selected and that was of Chaitanya Venkateshwaran, making her the fourth woman to take over as the British High Commissioner. An 18 year old, She recently graduated high school from New Delhi and is currently pursuing a bachelor's degree with a full scholarship in International Studies and Economics, and certificate programme in Advance leadership studies and Political Thought at American University, Washington DC, studying remotely.
During her unique day as the high commissioner, Chaitanya also met with the Editor of Anandbazaar Patrika to learn about gender representation in the media industry, discussed gender and policing with senior police officers from Madhya Pradesh and Telangana and interacted with the Marks & Spencer India team.
As the UK's top diplomat, Chaitanya had a busy day as she had to hand out tasks to High Commission's Department Heads, interact with senior woman police officers, meeting the press, and launching a study tracing the impact of British Council STEM Scholarships on Indian Women Participants.
Venkateswaran took to facebook to submit her entry for the role. The video, that was submitted on September 12, talks about the challenges and opportunities for gender equality in the age of COVID-19.
Jan Thompson, Deputy High Commissioner for the Day (on other days, Acting High Commissioner to India), said: "This competition is one of my favourite moments of the year – an opportunity to provide a platform to extraordinary young women and show how the UK and India are sharing expertise to ensure women and girls reach their full potential around the world. I was thrilled to relinquish my duties to Chaitanya for the day and was impressed with how confidently and competently she took on this role, a deserving winner out of an incredible 215 entries. In the side-lines of her very busy day as High Commissioner, we also enjoyed discussing our mutual love of the arts. I look forward to seeing what Chaitanya achieves next, as she joins a cohort of young women whose voices we have been proud to amplify through this annual initiative; the next generation of global leaders."
"I used to visit the British Council library in New Delhi when I was younger, and that's where I cultivated my love of learning. Building on that knowledge, to be the British High Commissioner for a day was a golden opportunity," Chaitanya Venkateswaran said.
In her free time, she also helps the visually-impaired students, acid attack survivors and marginalised LGBT+ groups.

Most New Yorkers have never heard of Corlears Hook. This nook of a neighborhood is located at the intersection of Cherry and Jackson Streets along the FDR Drive on Manhattan's Lower East Side. The area is named after 17th century Dutch landowners, the Van Corlear family who lived in the bend of the shoreline that had the shape of a hook. This little known waterfront area is one of the neighborhoods that our investment team is most interested in.
It's the home of the Lower East Side's new NYC Ferry landing. The dock is one of four new landings for two new ferry routes slated to open this summer, shortening commutes for thousands of New Yorkers traveling to and from the Lower East Side. When service launches, nearby residents will have a 9-minute ferry ride to Wall Street or a 17-minute ride to Midtown, compared to the 13-minute walk that only takes you to the nearest subway stop. A NYC Ferry ride is $2.75, the same as a subway ride, and includes free transfers to other ferry routes.
At Compound, we are always looking for appreciation catalysts, at a macro-level, at a neighborhood level, at a building level, and at a unit-level. We think the new LES ferry is a game-changer for the Corlears Hook surrounding neighborhood. Consider us all in!

Project Weather School: The Birth of a Hurricane
By Meteorologist Nick Merianos Orlando
UPDATED 2:55 PM ET Aug. 26, 2020 PUBLISHED 1:44 PM ET May. 12, 2020 PUBLISHED 1:44 PM EDT May. 12, 2020
How Hurricanes Form
Hurricanes happen each year in the Atlantic and they can be the most powerful and destructive storms on Earth. Hurricanes can produce winds in excess of 200 mph, although most produce winds less than 100 mph. Hurricanes act like engines and can be fairly self-sufficient over the open waters. The Atlantic Hurricane Season runs from June 1 through November 30. During this six month period, atmospheric conditions are most capable of tropical development and this is when most named storms occur. Hurricanes can form during the off season but it is fairly uncommon.
Today's lesson is on how hurricanes form
Items you need for the experiment are below
Facebook Live with Nick Merianos at 1 p.m.
This lesson will focus on the conditions needed for hurricane development. We will break down the birth of a hurricane into seven simplified steps. First let's start with the setup.
1. The Setup
The fundamental ingredients needed to start the process of tropical formation involve warm water, light winds, and a humid air mass. The general rule of thumb for water temperature is 80 degrees Fahrenheit for storms to form. These ingredients are most prevalent during the late summer and early fall. This is known as the peak of hurricane season. This is when the water temperature is warmest, the atmosphere is most humid and the upper-level winds are lightest.
2. Rising Air
It's summer time and the ocean temperature is very warm, 80 degrees Fahrenheit or above. This promotes excessive evaporation adding a tremendous amount of water vapor to the surrounding atmosphere. Warm air is less dense and therefore it rises. As air rises, it cools and condenses into clouds. As this process continues, the clouds grow larger and thunderstorms are born over the ocean. Light winds aloft in the atmosphere allow storms to grow tall without them being torn apart. This is crucial to tropical development.
3. More Thunderstorms
Think about the rising air needed for thunderstorms to form. As the air leaves the surface and rises, the pressure drops because there is less air molecules at the surface. Air flows from high pressure to an area of lower pressure. Outside air begins to rush in to replace the rising air. This process is continuous and it causes more thunderstorms to develop.
4. Tropical Low
Thunderstorms continue to build as air continues to rise. At this point, the rising motion increases and air flows in from all directions to replace the rising air. As air flows into the area of low pressure from all directions, it begins to circulate. The motion is a counterclockwise circulation north of the equator. The reason for this has to do with the Coriolis force.
5. Tropical Depression
At this point, a circulation develops as thunderstorms continue to build and air rushes into the storms center in a counterclockwise fashion. As the circulation tightens up and reaches the surface, a tropical depression is born. This is the birth of the engine that could evolve into a hurricane. A tropical depression has minimal impacts and wind speed is less than 34 miles per hour (mph). Tropical Depressions are known for very heavy rain and this can cause flooding if it moves over land.
6. Tropical Storm
As the engine continues and storms continue to intensify around the circulation, the tropical depression will intensify into a tropical storm. This occurs when wind speeds meet or exceed 39 mph. At this point, rising air intensifies and stronger thunderstorms form near the center. Sustained winds during this phase are between 39-73 mph. Tropical storms can be damaging when they move over land with strong wind, flooding, and storm surge. Once a tropical storm is born, it is given a name.
7. Birth of a Hurricane
A hurricane is born when the wind speed within the tropical storm exceed 74 mph. At this point, towering thunderstorms rapidly form near the center where there is rapid rising motion. An eye may develop in the center of the hurricane. There is a saying "what goes up must come down" and all the air comes down in the center of the storm. As air sinks in the center, it forms a clearing and if one were to stand outside in the eye of the hurricane, you may be able to see the sun. The eyewall surrounds the eye of a hurricane and the eyewall is the most dangerous part of any hurricane. This is where the tallest, most severe thunderstorms are located. This is where the winds are strongest in any hurricane and it can cause catastrophic damage.
A hurricane's strength is rated on the Saffir-Simpson scale, ranging from category 1 to category 5. This is a function of sustained wind speed and is as follows:
• Category 1: 74-95 mph
• Category 2: 96-110 mph
• Category 3: 110-129 mph
• Category 5: 157 mph and above
Category 5 hurricanes are rare but when they do happen, it can cause total destruction and completely obliterate anything in its path. These storms are to be taken very seriously. Hurricanes can produce tornadoes, flooding from heavy rain, storm surge flooding, and catastrophic damage. A major hurricane is classified as a category three hurricane or stronger.
A hurricane will lose its intensity quickly after making landfall. Once you remove one of the key ingredients like warm water, humid air mass, or weak upper level winds, the hurricane will weaken.
Experiment: How Hurricanes Form
Purpose: To demonstrate how hurricanes form with a circulation
- A clear glass mixing bowl is best but any bowl will work
- Blue food coloring
- Stirring rod
- Shaving Cream
1. Fill the bowl a little more than half way with water
2. Use the stirring rod and stir the water around counterclockwise
3. Take the food coloring and put a few drops at the center
4. Observe the shape the food coloring takes
5. Stir again
6. Add shaving cream down the center. The shaving cream will act as towering storm clouds as seen on a weather satellite
7. Stir for another 10-15 seconds
8. Observe shape of "storm clouds"
Results: The food coloring immediately dispersed into a circular pattern, rotating faster in the center and slower on the outside. The shape took on a saw blade look with an "eye" and feeder bands going toward the center.
Conclusion: From this experiment, it can be concluded that the circulation is tighter and faster toward the storms center. The shape of the food coloring closely resembles the shape of a hurricane when viewed from a weather satellite. You can see the outer bands rotate around the circulation. Once the circulation weakened, the bands became less defined. This symbolizes the death of the hurricane. The purpose of the shaving cream is an added bonus. The shaving cream will form a similar shape and would closely resemble what a hurricane looks like on a visible satellite.

Feature /// Trevor Sensor on 'Mind & Cosmos,' Irony and iPhones.
By seanmchugh October 14, 2016 October 14, 2016
Leave a Comment on Feature /// Trevor Sensor on 'Mind & Cosmos,' Irony and iPhones.
L/S spoke with Trevor Sensor about life as a touring musician, the excessive irony of modernity, and other musings of life and music. Sensor is opening for Foy Vance at Mercy Lounge on 10/14.
Trevor Sensor likes to read – and that's meant to sound innocuous, as the depth and breadth of what Sensor prefers to indulge in revolves around what less inspired bibliophiles might call "high brow" or even worse "boring," which may be the case for those that are quick to ascribe labels to books that baffle them, but there's an erudite openness to Trevor's intellectual indulgence.
Before heading out on the road in support of Foy Vance for the better part of what remains of the calendar year, Sensor holed up well within the bowels of "fly-over" country while reading Thomas Nagel's Mind & Cosmos – an exploration in the fallacy of long-standing empirical data and the sciences in general – just your typical pulp lore to get one's mind off the impending tour grind.
While he hadn't finished the book upon the time of this interview, he had managed to come to certain conclusions on the subject matter, "Its basically a book about how today in the 21st Century, the scientific community is a bit full of itself, and not really adhering to its own scientific method in terms of being open to new possibilities. So yeah, that's the type of stuff I like to spend my time with." So whether or not you're all that familiar with his songbook, the one thing that is glaringly apparent is Sensor's non-derivation of being.
Relatively young, Sensor's depth of understanding might come off as inscrutable, but the fact of the matter is, his primary tenant is that there can't possibly be a single realm of understanding or possibility in his existence, and he's perfectly fine with that, even if the performance side of his existence can grow rather cumbersome at times. "I prefer hiding out a little bit more than being on the road all the time, but its what you got to do." Such slight trepidations about hitting the road for extended periods of time are normal for most touring artists, so Sensor isn't alone in that reservation, though, there are cumbersome aspects to life in entertainment outside of extended touring. "There's no universal scheme in how I go about writing songs – I see something, I experience something. But now I feel like everyone is kind of drowning in irony, and I'm one of the few that are trying to be sincere and not to be ironic at any point in anything that I'm doing. I don't think anybody can read like Whitman anymore and take it seriously… people my age, at least. Because everybody is like, "Oh, look how silly he is," and its like well, you can be cool all the way until you're dead, but in the end it won't matter. Its not going to matter when you're dead, either."
Sensor's perspective on the ironic nature of his contemporaries are intriguing, if not enthralling as his outlook is uniquely grounded in reality, knowing that at one point or another, people move on, for better or for worse. "The irony within the irony itself is that I feel like our society is in a state of decline, rather than renaissance, and yet we're going around inventing iPhones without headphone jacks and acting like we just invented bread or something. Its just I think that I see a lot of musicians and bands today, and you meet them – and I meet a lot of nice people – but I also meet a lot of people who take themselves too seriously to the point that its like man, I just want to yell at them and be like "Dude, we're all the exact same. Just because you're up here on high with thousands of people screaming for you, you're still not shit." If it hasn't become apparent to this point, Sensor is irrefutably passionate about the artist and the ultimate irrelevance of their existence, but he's fine with that, as all he truly wants to do in the end is make the music and play the music for anyone that will take the time to listen and think.
As Sensor's passionate purview has (hopefully) been made apparent to this point, don't let the realist view predispose you to think that might hinder Sensor's live sets – if anything it enhances them. Sensor's live set is bare bones in its live presentation, though not necessarily out of some moralistic or philosophical intention – "I don't do that to try and make some sort of statement; I'm poor, man." – but the seemingly unintentional vulnerability of Sensor's live sets appeal to the most visceral core of those that are willing to listen, and hopefully, connect. "I mean, there's not even that much of a reason of why I do this in general, except for the fact that its just what I want to do. If we're going off the this idea that the universe being infinite versus finite and that we'll reach the end some day – I mean its all going to be gone, so it doesn't really matter. I don't do it for its own sake. I want to relate to people with what I'm trying to say, while I'm alive."

NDBench DynamoDB Plugin Configuration
===================

NdBench configuration is backed by **Netflix OSS** - **Archaius-2** implementation. This
plugin allows you to drive loads to DynamoDB with NDBench.

## Clients
The NDBench DynamoDB plugin offers a few NdBenchClient implementations to choose from.
- `DynamoDBKeyValue`: This client assumes that the table named in the configuration
property `ndbench.config.dynamodb.tableName` already exists. Unless configured with the
table a-priori, this client will not configure autoscaling, high resolution metrics and
alarms.
- `DynamoDBProgrammaticKeyValue`: This client tries to create the table named in configuration
if it does not exist. Also, it will try to enable autoscaling, high resolution metrics and high
resolution alarms for capacity consumption.

## CLI invocation
You can choose between `DynamoDBKeyValue` and `DynamoDBProgrammaticKeyValue` on
the command line with the `ndbench.config.cli.clientName` system property. All invocations below are
seven minute test runs, disable retries and set the request timeout to 100 milliseconds. Finally,
they assume that the CLI is being run on EC2 and that the EC2 instance has an instance profile IAM
role with permission to read and write data to DynamoDB tables. All examples below exercise the
default per-table maximum read and write capacity units in regions other than Virginia (us-east-1).
These runs assume each non-bulk API call will take 10ms and that the EC2 host you run on has the
resources to drive the load. If in doubt, monitor detailed CloudWatch metrics for the host while the
test is in progress (CPU Utilization, Network bytes in/out). These runs assume each bulk API call will
take 20ms to complete because the batch get/write APIs may paginate a few times.

### DynamoDBKeyValue CLI invocation
The following minimal examples invoke DynamoDB clients on the command line with minimal parameters.
These runs assume a table called "ndbench-table" provisioned at 10,000 reads and 10,000 writes already
exists.

#### DynamoDBKeyValue CLI invocation with single reads and writes
This example drives 10,000 reads and 10,000 writes per second to the default table using the PutItem and
GetItem APIs.

```bash
DISCOVERY_ENV=AWS ./gradlew run \
-Dndbench.config.cli.clientName=DynamoDBKeyValue \
-Dndbench.config.cli.timeoutMillis=420000 \
-Dndbench.config.dataSize=1000 \
-Dndbench.config.numKeys=10000000 \
-Dndbench.config.readEnabled=true \
-Dndbench.config.readRateLimit=10000 \
-Dndbench.config.writeEnabled=true \
-Dndbench.config.writeRateLimit=10000 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.maxRetries=0 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.requestTimeout=100 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.maxConnections=200 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.numReaders=100 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.numWriters=100
```

#### DynamoDBKeyValue CLI invocation with bulk reads and writes
This example drives 10,000 reads and 10,000 writes per second to the default table using the BatchWriteItem
and BatchGetItem APIs.

```bash
DISCOVERY_ENV=AWS ./gradlew run \
-Dndbench.config.cli.clientName=DynamoDBKeyValue \
-Dndbench.config.cli.timeoutMillis=420000 \
-Dndbench.config.dataSize=1000 \
-Dndbench.config.cli.bulkSize=25 \
-Dndbench.config.numKeys=10000000 \
-Dndbench.config.readEnabled=true \
-Dndbench.config.readRateLimit=400 \
-Dndbench.config.writeEnabled=true \
-Dndbench.config.writeRateLimit=400 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.maxRetries=0 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.requestTimeout=100 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.maxConnections=16 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.numReaders=8 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.numWriters=8
```

### DynamoDBProgrammaticKeyValue CLI invocation
The following minimal examples invoke DynamoDB clients on the command line with minimal parameters.
These runs will create and delete a table called "ndbench-table" with 20,000 reads and 20,000 writes
provisioned. The benchmark will delete the tables at the end of the run.

#### DynamoDBProgrammaticKeyValue CLI invocation with single reads and writes
This example drives 10,000 reads and 10,000 writes per second to the default table using the PutItem and
GetItem APIs.

```bash
DISCOVERY_ENV=AWS ./gradlew run \
-Dndbench.config.cli.clientName=DynamoDBProgrammaticKeyValue \
-Dndbench.config.cli.timeoutMillis=420000 \
-Dndbench.config.dataSize=1000 \
-Dndbench.config.numKeys=10000000 \
-Dndbench.config.readEnabled=true \
-Dndbench.config.readRateLimit=10000 \
-Dndbench.config.writeEnabled=true \
-Dndbench.config.writeRateLimit=10000 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.maxRetries=0 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.requestTimeout=100 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.maxConnections=200 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.readCapacityUnits=10000 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.writeCapacityUnits=10000 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.numReaders=100 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.numWriters=100
```

#### DynamoDBKeyValue CLI invocation with bulk reads and writes
This example drives 10,000 reads and 10,000 writes per second to the default table using the BatchWriteItem
and BatchGetItem APIs.

```bash
DISCOVERY_ENV=AWS ./gradlew run \
-Dndbench.config.cli.clientName=DynamoDBProgrammaticKeyValue \
-Dndbench.config.cli.timeoutMillis=420000 \
-Dndbench.config.dataSize=1000 \
-Dndbench.config.cli.bulkSize=25 \
-Dndbench.config.numKeys=10000000 \
-Dndbench.config.readEnabled=true \
-Dndbench.config.readRateLimit=400 \
-Dndbench.config.writeEnabled=true \
-Dndbench.config.writeRateLimit=400 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.maxRetries=0 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.requestTimeout=100 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.maxConnections=16 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.readCapacityUnits=10000 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.writeCapacityUnits=10000 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.numReaders=8 \
-Dndbench.config.dynamodb.numWriters=8
```

## Invocation using the deployable WAR
Follow the instructions in the top-level readme and the wiki to start the web application, and select
one of the DynamoDB clients (`DynamoDBKeyValue` and `DynamoDBProgrammaticKeyValue`)
from the pop-down list.

## Configuration details
The default configuration prefix is `ndbench.config.dynamodb.`, as shown by the CLI examples above.
For more detailed information about parameters, see the interfaces in the package called
`com.netflix.ndbench.plugin.dynamodb.configs`.

Home Mexican States When the Yucatan Peninsula separated from Mexico
When the Yucatan Peninsula separated from Mexico
Yucatán did not always belong to Mexico and its decision cost blood.
Learn about the history of when the Yucatan Peninsula separated from Mexico.
During La Colonia, Yucatán covered almost the entire peninsula, that is, it was not divided between Campeche, Quintana Roo, and, of course, in what is now Yucatán. All these states made up one. Furthermore, while they were under the yoke of the Spanish, the Yucatecans had kept their distance from the other Mexicans and not because of any particular conflict, but simply because they had not established strong relationships. When Mexico declared independence, an invitation was extended to Yucatán to become part of its Republic in 1821.
The Yucatecans wanted to maintain their independence even if they annexed the Republic, and this was the case for a time, until twelve years later when they declared themselves a centralist, which until then had been a federalist. This declaration caused annoyance throughout the country since the autonomy of the States was lost. The consequences were atrocious: there was a rebellion in Zacatecas, Texas became independent and, of course, Yucatán began a separatist process, which culminated in its independence act
In 1840 the inhabitants of the Yucatan Peninsula declared themselves an independent country from Mexico, as a protest to the establishment of a centralist country that prevented all the states of the country from choosing their rulers and having access to different freedoms, without knowing that this declaration it would cost blood and other problems.
One of those who started this revolt was Captain Santiago Iman, commander of the federalist army of Yucatán, who first took the City of Valladolid, where he established a letter in which he said that federalism (the opposite of the centralism by which it was ruled the country at that time) in Mexico had to be reestablished to combat poverty in the territory.
The first of these consequences was the anger of General Antonio López de Santa Anna who declared war on the separatists by sending warships to the coasts of the peninsula and forbidding any vessel with the Yucatecan flag to dock on national coasts, which generated a fall of the local economy.
Another of the actions that the Mexican government established against the rebels who wanted to become independent from the nation was the sending of troops to gradually take over different regions in what we now know as Campeche, Tabasco, and Quintana Roo, however when more than 4 thousand soldiers arrived in Mérida, they encountered an army of 11 thousand heavily armed Mayans that forced the Mexicans to retreat.
However, the economic pressure continued on the Yucatecans, generating extreme poverty and famine, the separatists succumbed to this and in 1843 signed agreements with Santa Anna accepting the return of belonging to Mexico with the condition that Yucatán had full autonomy in the taking of various decisions for the "happiness of its inhabitants".
But the freedoms of Yucatán, obtained by an exceptional situation, made a dent in the rest of the states, so in 1845 their exceptional freedoms were suppressed, generating new rancor with the country.
The union lasted very little, since on January 1, 1846 the Yucatecans declared themselves independent again.
With all the separatist conflicts something began to take shape in the country in an imperceptible way: a new rebellion of the Mayans now against the whites and Creoles, we refer to the bloody War of the Castes.
Caste War
Everything seemed to indicate that Yucatán would remain independent, but suddenly, in 1847 when Santa Anna was still president of Mexico, an internal war broke out, driven by the Mayan population against the whites. This rebellion is known as the Caste War. The situation was critical: it is believed that the Mayans managed to advance to such a point that they almost caused the white people of the region to disappear. In a fit of desperation, the state asked for help from all sides: Cuba, Jamaica, Spain, England and the United States, but no country got involved.
The third was the charm: definitive annexation
At the end, when the Yucatecans could not find any solution, they found consolation in the Mexican Republic, which offered to provide economic and military support. Only in this way were they able to stop the indigenous rebellion and regain control over the towns they had lost. In addition, of the money that Mexico received from the United States as compensation for the loss of Texas, a portion was given to Yucatán so that it could rebuild –150,000 pesos– while Yucatán, in addition to being divided into the states of Quintana Roo, Campeche and Yucatán As a thank you, he decided to join the Mexican Republic permanently on August 17, 1848.

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill Get in Epic Snowball Fight
Wendy Hermanson
When your home state is hit by a snowstorm, what is there to do but go out in the weather and have a snowball fight with the one you love?
That sentiment was well proved by Faith Hill, who posted an adorable Instagram shot of herself and hubby Tim McGraw in what appeared to be a no-holds-barred fight. Not quite sure who was winning, as both seemed pretty doused.
"Snowball fight... It's on!!!!!!!" Hill herself captioned the shot.
Luckily, whoever won in the fight was forgiven with a kiss. Seems like it might be McGraw who got the better of things. We'd say he's a winner either way.
The ouple has extended their successful Soul2Soul Tour into 2018, adding 25 more dates to the trek. The second leg kicks off May 31 in Richmond, Va. and continues through the summer before wrapping up July 22 in Sacramento, Calif.
Their multi-date 2017 tour landed them at No. 1 on a variety of Pollstar's rankings including Average Grossing Country Tour (North America) and Average Grossing Co-Headline Tour (U.S.).

Q: Constructing SQL Server query from parts in python SQLAlchemy Python = 3.10.2
SQLalchemy = 1.4.32
pyodbc = 4.0.32

Is it possible to construct sql query from parts and not risk SQL injection? This is what I tried
This function is part of a wrapper class which has engine created
from sqlalchemy.sql import text
    def select_locations(self, country: str, include_neighbours: bool, neighbours: str):
    select_query = text("SELECT * FROM table_a")
    if include_neighbours is False:
        where_query = text("WHERE table_a.country = :country")
    else:
        where_query = text(
            "WHERE table_a.country = :country or table_a.country in (:neighbours)"
        )
    final_query = select_query + where_query

    if include_neighbours is False:
        params = {"country": country}
    else:
        params = {"country": country, "neighbours": neighbours}
    with self.engine.connect() as con:
        result = con.execute(final_query, params).fetchall()
    return result

but its not possible to add two text clasues
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'TextClause' and 'TextClause'

Easiest would be to create a python string but that is risky because of SQL Injection so its out of question. text is advisable approach for creating raw sql queries.

A: You can build a query incrementally using SQLAlchemy Core constructs:
import sqlalchemy as sa

# …

table_a = sa.Table("table_a", sa.MetaData(), autoload_with=engine)

with engine.begin() as conn:
    # basic query
    qry = sa.select(sa.text("*")).select_from(table_a)
    results = conn.execute(qry).fetchall()
    """ SQL emitted:
    SELECT *
    FROM table_a

    [generated in 0.00037s] ()
    """

    # add WHERE clause to basic query
    country = "Canada"
    qry = qry.where(table_a.c.country == country)
    results = conn.execute(qry).fetchall()
    """ SQL emitted:
    SELECT *
    FROM table_a
    WHERE table_a.country = ?

    [generated in 0.00033s] ('Canada',)
    """

What is a Google Crawler?

Why Do UX and UI Matter for SEO? [2023] - January 24, 2023
How to Set Up and Use Google Search Console - January 23, 2023
You know when you use Google to search for a service, or find information? And once the page loads there is always one website at the very top.
Sites in position 1 in the Google search engine results page (SERP) get 25% of all clicks. So needless to say, it's important to follow SEO best practices to try and maximize your site's position in the SERP.
But do you know how Google even finds your site in the first place?
The answer is Google's crawlers. Google's crawlers are like little digital robots that visit Web sites and collect information about those sites.
Then, Google indexes all of that information and uses it to improve its search algorithm. When someone types a query into Google, the search algorithm looks through all of the indexed information to find the best results for the person's query.
And that's how Google is able to bring you the best results when you search for something on the internet!

Optimize Your Site for Google Crawling
A Google Crawler is also known as a "robot" or "spider," (get it, because they crawl) and they go from website to website on the hunt for new information to store in their databases. There are 15 kinds of crawlers that are used by Google but the most important one is Googlebot.
While Google is powerful it can't do everything, each time a new web page is created Google doesn't know about it until that page has been crawled.
Google uses the Googlebot to constantly gain the latest information to store in its database.
Also read: How to Write an Article that will Rank on Google in 6 Steps
Indexing only happens after the website has been crawled by GoogleBot. When it is crawled, it is scanned, and the information scanned from that site or page is stored in the Google index. The index will categorize and rank the pages accordingly in the search results.
So why is all this important?
Well, let's say you run a business and have a website. You want your website to be as close to the top as possible. If your website doesn't get crawled and scanned it won't load on the search page. Without any internet presence, you won't be able to reach your audience or consumers. Crawling and indexing make it slightly easier for websites to get some attention.
So, you know what it is but how does it work? While Google is powerful it can't do everything, each time a new web page is created Google doesn't know about it until that page has been crawled. Google uses the Googlebot to constantly gain added information to store in its database.
Once that web page is crawled or scanned. The page is rendered and given an HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and third-party code, all of which are needed for the Googlebot to index and rank websites. Googlebot, the biggest crawler, is able to see and render all the webpages and websites with Chromium.
The Chromium is always updating so that it can remain stable and perform its job accurately. This is available to everyone and can also be used for testing out new features and making new browsers.
Now that we know what we're working with, let's work on making your website easy to be crawled. Here are some tips and tricks to make your website a crawler magnet and rise to the top on the search results page.
Internal links can be your best friend for crawling. Your site may have already been crawled by Google in the past but recently you may have added more pages. If the crawler already knows your website, it will only focus on the main pages. Remember, Google is not alerted any time a new page is made, it crawls to find those pages. Using internal links on main pages guides the crawler where it needs to go. The best place for these internal links is your homepage, it is the page that receives the most traffic and where the crawler will scan first.
Backlinks are another great way to get your site crawled. This method can be used to "promote" your website to the crawler. Linking to a more popular website will boost your chances of being discovered by the crawler.
Images can be crawled, in fact, there is a specific crawler just for images. This crawler is known as Googlebot Image, and it collects images for the database.
There is a way to tell Google what pages you want them to crawl more directly. You can submit a sitemap with a detailed list of the pages that you want to be crawled by Google. Use WebSite Auditor to build a site map with their sitemap generator. Make it, name it. And download it to your computer to send it to Google, or you can publish it.
Click Depth shows you how much work a crawler would have to do to reach and scan your page. You never want the crawler to have to do too much work, you want your page or website to be as crawler friendly as possible. It should take about three clicks or less, the more it takes the more it slows down the crawler.
A good structure should allow you to add new pages without influencing your click depth. The crawler should still be able to reach these pages easily as well.
FYI: A good rule of thumb is to make sure you can navigate from a page on your site to any other page on your site with no more than 3 clicks. This ensures Google can find and index all of your pages efficiently. Plus, it's great for user experience.
There are instructions that Google follows when crawling and ideation pages. Robots.txt, noindex tag, robots meta tag, and X-Robots-Tag. Don't worry, we'll break this down for you.
Robots.txt. Is a root directory file that withholds certain pages and content from Google. When the crawler is scanning a page, it will be looking at this for information. If the crawler cannot find this information, it will cease its crawling and the page will not be a part of the search results.
Noindex tag prevent all types of crawlers from being able to scan and index a page.
Robots meta tag, can help control the way a page is supposed to be indexed and loaded for web surfers in the search results.
X-Robots-Tag, is a part of the HTTP header and will help control the behavior of the crawler. It oversees how the entire page is indexed. You can block images and videos on a page using this method. You are also able to target crawler types individually, but only if it's specified. If the type of crawler is not specified, then the instructions will be for all Google crawlers.
You may have heard this one before but make sure you have a user-friendly URL. A URL that is easy, one that both your consumers and algorithms will love. Try to keep your URL as short and sweet as possible. If you have a long URL, it can be confusing not only to the human eye but to the Google bot as well.
The more confused the Googlebot, the more it will exhaust its crawling resources and that is definitely not what you want.
So, you have a page but it's not performing the way you want it to. This could be because the crawler is having difficulties trying to scan and index your site. Here are a few common issues that people have come across with Google Crawling.
Make sure you are checking to see if your page or site is crawl friendly. That means having a good URL, incorporating the internal and backlinks if needed, or taking the time to create a sitemap to show Googlebot where to crawl. Also, keep in mind that it may take Google some time to crawl and index your website because it has to come find you!
Google will remove a website if it feels the need to, whether by law, relevancy or for not following the guidelines in place. Use the WebSite Auditor for click depth, tags, and anything that could be blocking the crawler from your page. Once you have done that you can submit your website to Google for reconsideration.
Duplicate content is a page that has similar content to another page or multiple URLS linking to one page.
In the case of having pages with similar content, which could also mean that you have a desktop and mobile version of one page. However, the most common example of duplicate content on a number of pages.
These can both be avoided and fixed with a canonical URL, or URL that serves as a representative for these duplicate pages. Google will only show the page that they believe has the most useful content on it and label it canonical. This is the page that will be crawled instead of the duplicates.
To avoid this, consider rewriting the text on these pages so that they aren't confused as duplicates.
If you're having rendering issues make sure your coding isn't too big. Your coding needs to be as clean as possible so that the crawler can render everything properly. If the crawler cannot render the page, it will be considered empty.
It normally takes Google anywhere from days to weeks to crawl. You can monitor crawling using the Index Status Report or the URL inspection tool. Remember, Google is not notified whenever a new website or page is made, it has to crawl and find it.
FYI: More popular sites are crawled faster. Brand new sites will usually require weeks to crawl, whereas reputable sites like NY Times, Wall Street Journal, and Wikipedia are crawled multiple times per day.
The Google Crawler Algorithm is based on how crawler friendly your site is. This includes keywords, URLs, content and information, coding, and much more. It is up to you to provide Google with the best content and guidance so that it can find your page and start crawling.
This is a good question. The short answer is no. Some pages are not able to be crawled and indexed because they are password protected, were specifically excluded from the index instructions, or don't have any links on their pages.
This will always vary depending on how long it takes for your website to be crawled and indexed. This could only take couple of days or as long as a few weeks.
Yes! There are tons of web crawlers outside of Google's fifteen. Here are a few for reference:
There is BingBot used by the search engine Bing.
SlurpBot, used by Yahoo! This web crawler is a mix between Yahoo! and Bing, because Bing primarily powers Yahoo!.
ExaBot is the most popular search engine and crawler in France.
AppleBot is used by the major tech Apple for spotlight search and Siri suggestions.
Facebook, believe it or not, uses links to send content to other profiles and can only crawl if provided a link.
Now that you understand the basics of Google Crawling and how it works, use it to your advantage! Get your website indexed properly and climb to the top of the search result homepage. It's free and completely at your disposal.

There certainly is a decent boost from the RX 580 to the RX 590. Good if you're on a budget.
I really like it, but it's a little too expensive. For £299 atm you can get a really nice looking '56.
Which kinda makes the £269 a bit too much. Like, £30 or so too much.
But yeah agreed, still a great little card. Must also bear in mind this is like top end (well, other than the Strix LOL edition that is no doubt inbound lol).
haha no doubt dude. It'll probably cost as much as a cheap 1070.


Jimi is a top-down triangular shawlette guaranteed to keep you warm and toasty on cold winter days. Its versatile shape can be worn in many different configurations—wrapped about the neck as a scarf with the tip either in front or in back, or draped over the shoulders as a shawl. Starting with alternating garter stripes of two complimentary colors, Jimi ends with a stylish border of thicker stripes flanking a pretty mesh lace band.
New knitters 0ften end up knitting a lot of simple rectangles and squares—I know I did! Jimi was designed specifically as a project for beginner knitters who are looking to step up their skills. With this pattern, you'll learn how to: shape a triangular shawl with yarn over increases; use stitch markers; alternate skeins for 2-color, 2-row stripes; weave in yarn tails neatly in garter stitch; and work decreases paired with yarn overs to create mesh lace.
Because Jimi was conceived as a teaching pattern, there is a 3-page tutorial section after the instructions. There you'll find links to great videos showing how to work stitches that may be unfamiliar, a phototutorial showing how to alternate skeins while carrying yarn up the side, and detailed blocking information and photos.
Jimi is shown worked in two different colors of worsted weight yarn, but may be worked in any weight you like. Try using a variegated or self striping yarn with a coordinating solid yarn for a completely different look. Details about how to increase the size are included in the tutorial section.
Of course, Jimi isn't just for beginners—it can also be knitted by experienced knitters who are looking for a quick knit that is perfect for gifts, stash busting and TV knitting.
Yarn Requirements: 340-375 yards *NOTE Our version is slightly larger by adding 12 rows (6 stripes) of garter and used most of 2 skeins.
