Q: How do I write a foreach loop that checks how many times a user bought a specific item in Woocommerce? I'm using this code to generate an iframe if a customer has bought product 13372 and it works great:
<?php
// Get the current user data:
$user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_id = $user->ID; // Get the user ID
$customer_email = $user->user_email; // Get the user email
// OR
// $customer_email = get_user_meta( $user->ID, 'billing_email', true ); // Get the user billing email

// The conditional function (example)
// IMPORTANT: $product_id argument need to be defined
$product_id = 13372;
if( wc_customer_bought_product( $customer_email, $user_id, $product_id ) ) {
    echo "You have additional listings!";
    //iFrame goes here
} else {
    echo "You have no additional listings.";
}
?>

Now I need to modify this to check how many times a user bought product ID 13372 and output that many number of iframes. If bought 3 times, output 3 iframes. I'm assuming a foreach loop, but what I've tried doesn't work. I followed this post: How to check how many times a product has been bought by a customer
But the example it doesn't return anything for me, not sure why!

A: Please try the following. We're looping through each completed shop order of a specific customer and putting all IDs of purchased products into an array. We then loop through that array to see how many times a specific ID appears. We store that value in a $count variable, which is used to determine how many times to output an iframe.
I've commented the code and made function and variable names as clear as possible.
<?php
function so58032512_get_product_purchase_quantity( $product_id ) {
    // Array to hold ids of all products purchased by customer
    $product_ids = [];

    // Get all customer orders
    $customer_orders = get_posts( array(
        'numberposts' => - 1,
        'meta_key'    => '_customer_user',
        'meta_value'  => get_current_user_id(),
        'post_type'   => 'shop_order', // WC orders post type
        'post_status' => 'wc-completed' // Only orders with status "completed"
    ) );

    // Loop through each of this customer's order
    foreach ( $customer_orders as $customer_order ) {
        $order = wc_get_order( $customer_order );
        $items = $order->get_items();

        // Loop through each product in order and add its ID to $product_ids array
        foreach ( $items as $item ) {
            $id = $item['product_id'];
            array_push( $product_ids, $id );
        }
    }

    // Variable to count times an ID exists in the $product_ids array
    $count = 0;

    // Loop through all of the IDs in our $product_ids array
    foreach ( $product_ids as $key => $value ) {
        // Every time the ID that we're checking against appears in the array
        if ( $value == $product_id ) {
            // Increment our counter
            $count ++;
        }
    }

    // Return the counter value that represents the number of times the
    // customer bought a product with our passed in ID ($product_id)
    return $count;
}

// Get the current user data:
$user           = wp_get_current_user();
$user_id        = $user->ID; // Get the user ID
$customer_email = $user->user_email; // Get the user email

// IMPORTANT: $product_id argument need to be defined
$product_id = 13372;
if ( wc_customer_bought_product( $customer_email, $user_id, $product_id ) ) {
    $x = 1;
    $number_of_iframes_to_show = so58032512_get_product_purchase_quantity( $product_id );
    echo 'The customer bought product with ID ' . $product_id . ' ' . $number_of_iframes_to_show . ' time(s).
';
    while ( $x <= $number_of_iframes_to_show ) {
        echo "
Here's an iframe!
";
        $x ++;
    }
} else {
    echo "You have no additional listings.";
}
?>

Almacenes Ley fue una cadena de almacenes colombiana fundada en Barranquilla por Luis Eduardo Yepes en 1922 que se dedicaba al comercio de productos para el hogar. La empresa cerró al ser absorbida por Almacenes Éxito en 2012.

Orígenes
Luis Eduardo Yepes había nacido en 1894 en Copacabana, Antioquia. En 1921 se mudó a Manizales con su familia para crear una miscelánea llamada "La Fontana", por desgracia el negocio familiar se destruyó por un incendio en el local y esto causó que entraran en una crisis económica. En 1922 Luis Eduardo y su familia se mudaron a Barranquilla donde estaba el carnaval en ese momento, por ende con el poco dinero que tenía decidió alquilar la mitad de un negocio de zapatos y le puso las iniciales de su nombre dando como resultado "LEY".

Historia
En 1922 los Almacenes Ley son fundados por Luis Eduardo Yepes en Barranquilla vendiendo en un principios cosas alusivas al Carnaval de Barranquilla que estaba en ese entonces, luego de que se terminara expandiría más su catálogo de productos. El primer eslogan fue de los almacenes fue "de 5 centavos a 1 peso". Con el paso del tiempo consiguió pagar las deudas del primer negocio familiar y además de expandirse a otras ciudades como Cali, Medellín, Bogotá, Cartagena y Ciénaga (Magdalena), gracias al apoyo financiero de la empresa y el apoyo financiero de sus hermanos.

En 31 de enero de 1936 el fundador murió, la familia de él vendió la empresa a los señores Germán Saldarriaga, Jesús Mora y Jorge de Bedout, cambiando el nombre a "Almacenes Ley. Ltd." y el nuevo eslogan era: "En el ley cuesta menos".

En 1944 la sede principal de la empresa pasó a ser Medellín.

En 1959 los Almacenes Ley pasaron a ser una "Sociedad Anónima" y empezaron a ser administrados por Cadenalco S.A (que fue la razón social de su cambio a "Sociedad Anónima").

En la década de los 60 nació el personaje "Don Julio" un señor vestido con apariencia elegante que aparecía en los comerciales de los almacenes en el mismo mes.

A finales de la década de los 90 nació una mascota que era un gallo que aparecía bajo la campaña "Madrúguele a diciembre" donde decía que los productos estaban a precio de huevo.

Durante los 90 la empresa estaba decente gracias a los ingresos de sus marcas hermanas como "Almacenes Super Ley" que era la versión del almacén pero para la gente con altos ingresos. Sin embargo aquí entra Almacenes Éxito que comienza la integración con el Ley.

En noviembre del 2001 el Éxito adquiere a Cadenalco  y desaparece a Almacenes Super Ley, cosa que benefició a la versión normal de este almacén. Ahora Almacenes Ley era administrado por el Éxito y debido a que este quería que el Ley tuviera una identidad similar a ellos, cambió el logotipo de los cuadros rojos al último que salió con el tomate arriba.

Los dos almacenes convivían normalmente hasta que en el 2010 Éxito anunció que iban a absorber a los Almacenes Ley  y empezaron a reemplazar las tiendas hasta que el último local fue reemplazado en la zona de Belén en la ciudad de Medellín en 2012 y luego de eso Almacenes Ley dejó de existir.

Scott Walker At Your Service
Need marketing, strategic planning or issue advocacy? Scott's new company can help you go "big and bold."
By Michael Horne	- Nov 25th, 2019 02:39 pm
Scott Walker speaking at the 833 East groundbreaking event in downtown Milwaukee in 2014. File photo by Jeramey Jannene.
In July it was announced that Scott Walker had been selected as the next president of the Young America's Foundation.
That's good news for the former governor, who left his job on January 7th of this year. However the new position does not begin until February, 2021. This gives Walker, 52, over a year until he assumes his new position and its hefty paycheck. What to do?
On January 3rd, 2019, four days before he left office, Walker Group, LLC. was registered as a Domestic Limited Liability Company with the State of Wisconsin. The registered agent, Platform Global Communications and Marketing, Inc., is a Madison-based consulting firm run by Keith Gilkes, a former Walker campaign manager and chief of staff to the governor.
Gilke's clients include Foxconn, Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, and the Institute for Reforming Government. It appears Walker hopes to cast his net in the same waters for his new consultancy.
Go "Big and Bold"
Walker Group, LLC has a motto of "Moving Conservatism Forward," and has a website address of ScottWalker.com. So, what can Scott Walker do for you?
According to the website, Walker and his team are prepared to handle such things as:
Traditional and Digital Communications. "We are experienced in telling a story or conveying a message through all the traditional broadcast and print media. We also understand the impact of digital media and know-how to use it to change the conversation," Walker writes, using an unnecessary hyphen in the sentence.
Resource Development. "Advancing a public policy goal or another strategic initiative often comes down to mounting the financial resources you'll need to get the message out. We have a proven track record of taking this challenge to new levels, from large-scale, traditional fundraising initiatives to innovative small-dollar fundraising and everything in between."
Economic Development Consulting. "We understand what it takes to make economic development projects happen."
Marketing Strategy. Branding an initiative and consistent messaging is an integral part of making an impact, as is being able to deliver that message to your intended audience. Through decades of experience in this area and digital assets we have developed such as targeted email lists, the Walker Group can help clients with targeting the audience you need to reach.
Strategic Planning and Change Management. Big, bold reforms are a Governor Scott Walker trademark and are central to what we do at Walker Group. … The Walker Group can help clients lead the way by going big and bold whether it's in public policy, business or a non-profit enterprise. Change can happen through planning and leadership.
Issue Advocacy and Political Campaign Strategy. Winning three statewide elections in four years, including an unprecedented Recall election, and successfully advocating for bold transformative change required a strategy. That experience — as well as the issues we've advocated on since — means Walker Group has an advantage in guiding our clients. From issue advocacy to political campaigns, we can help you find the path to victory.
Walker Group's website also has a link for donations to "Help support the balanced budget amendment effort," which leads to the site of the Center for State-led National Debt Solutions. Walker plays a key role at the group: "as a long-time conservative reformer, Scott Walker knows a thing or two about bold leadership. That made him a natural as National Honorary Chairman."
Walker also serves as the National Honorary Chairman of The Institute for Reforming Government, also registered by Gilke's Platform Global Communications and Marketing, Inc. "Most importantly, Scott Walker took power out of the hands of the big government special interests and put it firmly into the hands of the hard-working taxpayers. At one point, more than 100,000 protesters (many brought in from other places) tried to intimidate him. They even tried to recall him."
Staying Relevant
Walker also tweets frequently, often quoting bible verses: "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." (November 24th.) He is shown wearing a Packers jersey (#12) and holding a Miller Lite during the team's Sunday loss to the San Francisco 49ers. "As poorly as the @packers played, I'm surprised the score isn't 35-0. @packers need a new game plan for the 2nd half." Yes, he has strategic advice to offer NFL teams, too.
Walker also has a podcast series entitled, "You Can't Recall Courage." On November 1st, he devoted 26 minutes to the topic: "American Companies and Athletes Should Stand for American Values."
A Hawaiian Cruise
For a full immersion Walker experience, there are still some spaces available on the "Cruisin' With the Walkers" boat excursion, a 12 day, 11 night tour of the Hawaiian Islands from January 29th to February 9th. The $5,499 per person (double occupancy) fee includes a number of "Exclusive Experience" events, including "Cocktails with the Governor," (Monday), "Photo & Autograph Session," (Tuesday), "Karaoke Night with the Walkers," (Wednesday), and "Q&A with the Walkers" on Friday. You can also book a passage on the very same Pride of America voyage (minus the Walkers and their exclusive experience events) starting at $1,950.
If you prefer a more intimate event, the Worldwide Speakers Group offers Walker's services for $15,000 to $25,000 per occasion.
For those on a budget, or whose employment status does not allow for a midwinter Hawaiian cruise, there is a chance to hear Walker in person as he will be the featured speaker at a $25 "Newsmaker Luncheon" hosted jointly by the Milwaukee Press Club and WisPolitics.com, to be held Tuesday, Dec. 3rd at The Milwaukee Press Club, 137 E. Wells St.

Jake formerly of the LP says:
"Grifting isn't easy but it's necessary." Especialky given that ex-Governor Dropout has no other skills.
ELLEN FREDERICK says:
And continuing his lifelong trend, he's still never held a legit job.
Edward Susterich says:
Scott Walker might try selling bibles– premium priced when signed by the "Chosen One.
blurondo says:
I appreciate the efforts of the Milwaukee Press Club but they're dreaming if they think that it's reasonable to charge $25 to listen to a has-been.

← This Woman Just Explained Economics In A Nutshell. And It's So Neo-Liberal It Hurts
What Manolis Glezos told us →
Fear and Anger, and the Spectre of a New Beginning
From Dublin Opinion, 2011
Michael D Higgins got called a "midget" and a "parasite" last Friday. Somehow, it has only made its way into the papers and onto the airwaves on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. It has elicited comment from the Taoiseach Enda Kenny and from Health Minister Leo Varadkar. Labour Party Senator Lorraine Higgins ventured on Today With Sean O'Rourke that it was an 'attack on democracy' Liveline was devoted to the topic today, two days before Funny Friday on the 30th of January, but also, and more importantly, three days in advance of another round of anti-water charges mobilisations, this Saturday, 31st January.
Why has it happened thus? You don't need to be a genius to work out that the concern here, on the part of both the media and the political establishment, is not some grievous act of lèse-majesté from which they have spent the last 5 days reeling in shock with the smelling salts only now kicking in. Nor is it horror at the use of ableist abuse. Rather, it is, purely and plainly, the potential for keeping numbers down on the 31st.
Did you notice that opinion polls of the 12th and 13th of January showed a rise in support for the coalition parties? As RTÉ noted at the time, 'January is a month when Government parties fare slightly better in polls because of the Dáil break'. Before Christmas, however, support for the coalition was on the way down. One factor in this was revealed in a headline in the Irish Times noted on December 4th: Government parties pay price for water charges. When water charges are the focus of public attention, the government flounders. Hence the more the government can keep water charges off the agenda, the more it can diminish its sense of importance, the better its chances of remaining in power. Simple. As a consequence, it makes urgent sense, from its perspective, to strive to keep the rabble in line.
This concern was clear in the words of Leo Varadkar on Morning Ireland today, when he said that "what strikes me, is that as the water protesters get fewer, they're getting nastier". Varadkar's claim about the water protesters has no basis in fact. It is akin to saying there is less rain nowadays because it is not raining outside. Needless to say, his claim was not challenged by his interviewer.
Varadkar, moreover, like Lorraine Higgins, sought to criminalise dissent altogether. He claimed that the President was 'above politics' and that hence such protests were a de facto attack on the constitution. Needless to say, the contradiction in Varadkar's claims -here was a Minister using the President for transparently political purposes– was left unprobed by the questioner.
I should stress here that it is not the content of the insult –"midget", "parasite", "traitor"- that Varadkar was denouncing as an attack on the constitution, but the very fact that the figure of the President was being challenged. It is important to remember that Varadkar –described last week in an Irish Times editorial as "such a refreshing and popular politician" with a "reputation for candour and straight talking" has form in intervening on the question of water. It is he who came up with the image of the "sinister fringe". He spoke of how it "really bothered him" that people might protest about water charges when there were other things, like "Áras Attracta, the fact that there over 300 people on trollies this morning in our hospitals" that were far more important. Back in 2012 he claimed that people who did not pay the household charge –the household charge- would have their water cut off, and that a "bomb" would go off in Dublin unless bondholders were repaid in full. 'Straight talking'. 'Refreshing'. 'Popular'.
Neither Varadkar nor Lorraine Higgins, for her part, had anything to say when her government colleague Charlie Flanagan, who is the Minister for Justice, let it be known on Twitter that another public representative was a "cunt".
The idea that Michael D Higgins is "above politics" is contradicted somewhat by Higgins's own pronouncements, which seldom receive more than the most superficial of treatment in the regime press. Michael D Higgins is to the regime media, roughly speaking, what the Pope is to the Iona Institute . An important figurehead, a symbol of authority and power, worth celebrating the fact of his popularity, but well worth studiously ignoring anything he has to say.
Consider, for instance, these remarks:
there are great risks inherent in both the very responses that might emerge from fear and anger among our citizens, and then too in the obvious potential for political exploitation of these passions
Which come from Michael D Higgins's remarks to the Parliamentary Assembly to the Council of Europe, hier matin. These remarks, from Ireland's supposed 'first citizen', will be given less media attention than a man giving a qualified apology for calling someone else a midget and a parasite.
What Varadkar is doing, of course, as are Enda Kenny and Lorraine Higgins, and the regime press, is political exploitation of fear and anger par excellence. They seek to locate the source of fear not in the institutions stripping people of their "effective enjoyment of social rights" (Michael D Higgins) such as the "modern panopticon" of ratings agencies, "not bound by any democratic requirement", but in individuals whose anger brings them onto the streets.
There's a Greek word for this: metonymy. They single out a part, and they make it stand in for the whole. Through this approach, the abusive language of a few is what really characterises the hundreds of thousands of people who took to the streets to object to policies imposed by the government and produced a vertiginous collapse in the government's credibility as a consequence. The message: don't go onto the streets, they'll eat you alive. What are you, some sort of thug?
What these double standards show is that the government has conclusively lost the political argument about water charges. It cannot argue that water charges are anything other than regressive. Hence it is seeking to sap numbers from vocal opposition to the charges, in the hope that resignation will set in, and it can hang onto power.
Fine Gael and Labour politicians in government must be especially conscious of the fact that the government in Greece, composed of politicians from its own European Parliamentary party groupings, met an ignominious end the other day, swept away by a political party buoyed aloft by militant social movements. The reverberations from this will continue for a long time. It is a major popular repudiation of the kind of policies exemplified in Ireland by the imposition of water charges, of the idea that debt must hold sway over life.
That such a thing might happen in Ireland is not at all unthinkable. The prospect of the current political order being swept away is, in fact, a spectre that weighs heavier on the brain of ruling politicians and their scribes than it does on most people. It should come as no surprise, therefore, that the creeping fear of a new beginning might turn these political animals into the most rabid of attack dogs.

Can anyone help?
Rob

A: Set the checkboxes value="1", otherwise the string "driving_license" is passed to your db-field which is tinyint :-(
AND: move to mysqli or PDO, mysql is deprecated.

A: and it's better to use bit(1) instead of tinyint for Boolean values, don't use root for connecting to mysql and use PDO or Mysqli, and finally it's not good way to print mysql errors for your users, use one of php database classes

A: <?php

 $con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
 if (!$con)
   {
   die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
   }
if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
 mysql_select_db("client", $con);

As of August 5, 2017, NASA's Curiosity rover will have been cruising the landscape of Mars for five years. This US$2.5 billion-dollar mission landed the largest, and most technologically sophisticated, rover ever to roam the surface of the Red Planet. Over the course of its mission Curiosity has captured more than 200,000 images and drilled over a dozen rock samples, and it isn't done yet.
Initially, Curiosity's primary mission was scheduled to last two years (or one Martian year of 98 weeks), but the architecture of the rover has proven to be surprisingly resilient, despite some mechanical scares along the way. The rover has overcome short circuits, unexpected software glitches, and hazardous terrain while delivering a vast array of exciting insights into the history of our mysterious neighbor.
New Atlas explored the rich and varied discoveries uncovered by Curiosity in an expansive feature last year, but the last 12 months of the mission have continued to deliver new and unexpected revelations. As the rover trekked along on its road trip towards Mt Sharp it sent back some stunning images of layered rock formations and also offered us more evidence that the planet could have supported life in the past.
Driving across Mars for five years is apparently starting to take a toll on the rover though, with two of Curiosity's raised treads, called grousers, breaking early in 2017. The rover has currently traversed 10.57 miles (17 km) and mission control is now being very careful to choose routes that avoid sharp rocks. NASA is confident there is still life left in Curiosity and it is expected, at the very least, to reach its current final destination, about 3 mi (4.8 km) further away.
Over the last five years Curiosity has sent back some of the most spectacular, high-resolution images we have ever seen of Mars' surface. Celebrate this magnificent human achievement by visiting our Curiosity Rover photo gallery and revisiting some of the most amazing views captured by Curiosity over the course of its landmark mission.
Happy 5th birthday Curiosity!

Anybody know what its power source is? Five years and still going?
Buzzclick August 4, 2017 12:34 PM
I would imagine that as far off as the sun may be, the solar paneling is still able to charge Curiosity's batteries, ever so slowly. Truly remarkable close-up images of a place so far away, Earth like and alien at the same time. I have the impression that Mars' sand is often finer than what we have here on Earth, and some of the rock outcrops are not formed by ancient waters but by sandblasting from windstorms.

Curiosity has a Plutonium-powered radioisotope thermoelectric generator. Starting with 125 watts, new, it should be around 116 watts now, with linear decay.

Q: How do i change the DragManager reject-symbol in AS3? I'm working on a drag-n-drop functionality in flex4/as3, for the first time. I use the DragManager-class, and the basic drag-and-drop stuff works now. But, how do i change the little red "reject cursor" which is displayed when i drag objects over areas where i can't drop it?
I can find "rejectCursor" in the styles specification here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/mx/managers/DragManager.html#styleSummary
But I have no idea about how to set in in AS3. Do i have to use css, and if yes, could you give me a quick example? Would be very helpful! Thanks.

A: You need to use the <fx:Style> tag to declare the global style:
<fx:Style>
    @namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark";
    @namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx";

    mx|DragManager {
        rejectCursor: Embed('path/to/icon.pngORswf');
    }

</fx:Style>

Edit: To do this from an AS3 class instead of from MXML, you would use:
import mx.core.FlexGlobals;
import mx.styles.IStyleManager2;
import mx.styles.CSSStyleDeclaration;

[Embed('path/to/icon.pngORswf')]
private var rejectCursor:Class;

var mgr:IStyleManager2 = FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.styleManager;
var selector:String = "mx.managers.DragManager";
var decl:CSSStyleDeclaration = mgr.getStyleDeclaration(selector);
if (!decl)
    decl = new CSSStyleDeclaration(selector);
decl.setStyle("rejectCursor", rejectCursor);
mgr.setStyleDeclaration(selector, decl, false);

A: Generally in AS3 you can set a styles on a Flex Component like this:
UIComp.setStyle('styleName',newValue);

However, since DragManager does not extend UIComponent the setStyle method does not exist.  From here, I'm guessing a bit.
If you dig into code; you'll find the DragProxy class, and a showFeedback method, which has a segment like this:
var styleSheet:CSSStyleDeclaration = styleManager.getMergedStyleDeclaration("mx.managers.DragManager");
newCursorClass = styleSheet.getStyle("rejectCursor");

So, you could try setting that style on the instance of the DragProxy; but you'll need access to the DragProxy instance.  It looks like you need to use mx_internal do that:
import mx.core.mx_internal;
use mx_internal

Then you can do something like this:
var myDragProxy : DragProxy = DragManager.dragProxy()
dragProxy.setStyle('rejectCursor', newValue);

Public Schools Aren't the Enemy
by Liz Riggs
The first time I heard about the movie God's Not Dead, I mistakenly guessed that it was a mainstream movie with a clever, potentially Christian title. The second time I heard about it, I realized it had a lot more to do with public education and its perpetually vexed relationship with Christianity and a lot less to do with the philosophical musings of God's existence. The success of the movie exposed something interesting in America: the ongoing assumption on the part of some Christians that the education system is out to get them.
Christianity's relationship with public education is complicated and fragile, and it's something I never thought much about until I became a teacher in the public school system. Raised as a Christian in a suburban county lucky enough to have remarkably good public schools, I never considered the idea of public school as being harmful to my character or moral development (although, perhaps it crossed my parents' minds.) And, when I left my public college to start teaching in a public high school, I rarely considered that my beliefs might come in conflict with my career.
If there's one thing I've learned from both attending public school and teaching in it, it's that public school is far from godless. Sure, it may not allow for teacher-led prayer or morning devotional, but these schools are not soulless places. In fact, they're typically buildings full of deeply passionate, committed adults and kids who are always in need of love—just like any Christian school might be.
As public education reform surfaces more and more often, it's important for us to consider our role in this realm. While there's certainly nothing wrong with homeschooling or private school by any means—and there are valid reasons for families to consider them for their children—there are certain aspects of public education that can not only be beneficial to Christians, but can allow us to serve others in tremendous ways.
A Different Perspective
Despite the fact that I attended an incredibly homogenous public high school and college, once I began teaching, I encountered a much different vision of public school and way of life than I had ever been aware of. In just a few short years, I had a drastically different perspective of myself, my students, my community—my country—than I'd had for my entire life. Both perspectives were deeply rooted in God, but because this school had taken me outside of my comfort zone, led me into relationships with people who came from vastly different backgrounds and diversified my social circle, I found myself in a much different place with God.
While there are many ways to deepen our own understanding of people from diverse backgrounds—of which public school is not the only way—this is certainly one perk of public schooling. And, while not all public schools are diverse (in fact, our schools are still largely segregated), public schools do tend to have larger diversity than their private counterparts. And, as Christians, we are called to those who are different from us, to spread God's Word to all people.
The Challenge of Schooling
Among some circles, there is a common myth that public school is a way to challenge traditionally held Christian beliefs and debunk Biblical teachings by replacing stories of faith with scientific theories and hammering away at understandings with philosophical questioning. As a lifelong public school attendee and teacher of many years, I can tell you that this was simply not my experience. Almost none of what is taught in school comes directly in conflict with the core teachings of the Christian faith, and most schools will welcome input from concerned parents.
Because our society is not made up entirely of believers, it is nearly impossible for children to go through life with an entirely "Christian Education." Even the most homeschooled of homeschooled children will still have interactions with the outside world that will challenge her or his beliefs, raise doubts and illuminate new mysteries.
The question is: How are we preparing ourselves for these moments? Are we shunning away from them or preparing ourselves for them? Are we avoiding the conversation because we aren't sure how to answer or are we rising to the challenge because it deepens our beliefs, builds nuance in our understanding and further solidifies our relationship with God?
The Opportunity of Public School
For many, the choice of school is an entirely self-centered decision. We want to decide what is best for "us" or what will serve "our child" most completely. We want the best school for our kid in our neighborhood with our beliefs. But what about other people's children? Are we so rooted in fear of our child falling in with the "wrong" kids that we avoid having them even interact at all?
Sadly, there is sin (and kids who fall deeply into it) within both Christian, private and public schools. And, regardless of schooling, all of our children will eventually grow up and engage—on a daily basis—with more and more people who do not share their beliefs. Will they be prepared for these interactions and relationships? That's up to us, and the culture we foster for them.
And, when we consider the children in public schools, it's worth asking whether or not we are called to care for them too.
What about the children without parents who can choose a school for them?
What about the poor children, whose only option is public school—and likely, one with fewer advantages than a school in a high income community?
What if we miss out on the opportunity to care for these children because we are more vested in our own needs?
What if, at the end of the day, it isn't actually about us at all?

Welcome to the Exit doorway.
Smell the fear and see our victims.
Innocent in age and purpose.
Grant to them a Rest Eternal.
On them shine the Light Unending.
Kyrie, press against the cage bars.
Press a knife into my heartache.
Scalding tears condense in silence.
Burning prayers ignite my stone tongue.
Please, to spare them, Source of Mercy.
Christe, you are glad to see me.
Never judging what I won't do.
Softly do you call so sweetly.
Grant to me your absolution.
To The Judge all flesh will cometh.
What did you do but be born free?
Always there must be a payment.
All things closely are accounted.
Money is the social scaffold.

Honk our horn at every stray cat.
All that freedom is disturbing.
Hear my prayer. To You all flesh comes.
Who shall intercede for me, Lord?
I Creation's Crown have tarnished.
Putting price on every Creature.
All my prayers remain unworthy.
Please, Lord, spare me, Source of Mercy.
I would rather be forgotten.
Severed from my own remembrance.
Dowse the shameful embers in me.
Arrogant, I kneel before you.
Close my mouth and hear my heatbeat.
Unavenged will nothing left be.
As I pass between the cages?
Can I give them understanding?
Put it in my pretty garden.
Looking for the bones I buried.
Blood and ash upon the altar.
Smash apart the dove piñata.
Lest they fall into the darkness.
Pain of hell have we created.
Picnic with the wine and breadsticks.
We are not the savage Mayans.
Slit the throat and drink the blood warm.
Made to no one and for nothing.
How for us did God the Lamb serve?
Lamb Chops, Stew, Eggplant Lasagna?
Curry, Rack, With Spinach Stuffing?
Unto Heaven, shall I worry?
Little boys are made of puppies.
Little girls are made of kitties.
Death Row Saints are made of grownups.
Merciful, You are in Silence.
Could you not give Word to Justice?

The Goldfields region of Victoria is a region commonly used but typically defined in both historical geography and tourism geography (in particular heritage tourism). The region is also known as the Victorian Golden Triangle.

Description

It takes in a specific area of North Central Victoria, the major cities of Ballarat and Bendigo as well as smaller centres including Daylesford, Castlemaine and Maryborough.  It extends as far north as Inglewood and St Arnaud.  It encroaches on the Western District near Ararat.  Other significant towns include Maldon, Creswick, Clunes, Avoca and Buninyong.

Although the region has a strong association with the Victorian gold rush there are, however, significant towns associated with the gold rush and gold mining located outside of this region - notable examples include Warburton, Walhalla, Warrandyte, Chiltern and Beechworth.  The goldfields region is more strongly linked to the impact of the Victorian Gold Rush than the discovery of gold in Victoria.

As a result of the gold rush, the region contains many old buildings, including celebrated examples of Victorian architecture, some of which are heritage listed, while others have fallen into disrepair and become derelict. Many of the towns were far larger during the Gold Rush than they are now, and there are some examples of ghost towns in the region.  Major tourism icons include Sovereign Hill, Eureka Stockade site and the Bendigo Talking Tram. The region is also associated with the origins of Australian rules football; Tom Wills, one of the game's founders, grew up outside present-day Moyston, the self-proclaimed "Birthplace of Australian Football". Some of the earliest clubs were also established in the region.

Demographically, the population of the region is approximately 244,900  The region has a well-defined road tourist route.  The area retains a significant gold mining industry and remains a popular for fossicking.

The Goldfields region is also associated as a wine growing region with a large number of established vineyards and popular wineries.  An important ecosystem associated with the region is the Box-Ironbark forest, now much fragmented and cleared but still important for the conservation of many birds and other animals.

"Thus says the Lord God: 'I myself will take a sprig from the lofty top of the cedar and will set it out. I will break off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, and I myself will plant it on a high and lofty mountain. On the mountain height of Israel will I plant it, that it may bear branches and produce fruit and become a noble cedar. And under it will dwell every kind of bird; in the shade of its branches birds of every sort will nest.'" Ezekiel 17:22-23
Jesus is that sprig that was planted on a high and lofty mountain. Jesus is the tender shoot that was planted on the mountain height of Israel. He was planted on Mt. Calvary where his blood ran down the cross and brought new life to you and I through the forgiveness of sins. We are the branches growing from the sprig or the tender shoot that produce fruit. God's plan has always been that His church would be a noble cedar which provides refuge to every kind of bird - His refuge.
This truth is found in the Proper Preface for Holy Week that the church has used for hundreds of years. "It is truly, good, right, and salutary that we should at all times and in all places give thanks to You, holy Lord, almighty Father, everlasting God, through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who accomplished the salvation of mankind by the tree of the cross that, where death arose, there life also might rise again and that the serpent who overcame by the tree of the garden might likewise by the tree of the cross be overcome." Jesus' cross is a tree of life and we are the branches growing from it providing refuge to our neighbors.
Our logo, which was developed in concert with the Design Lab at Longwood University, depicts these ideas. The tree of the cross is prominently displayed from which we receive forgiveness and life. The tree of the cross under which we find refuge. From that cross we receive life so that we grow as the branches and leaves of God's church that share His refuge with our neighbors. The leaves can only share refuge as long as they receive sustenance from the tender shoot. So the logo depicts the leaf's veins delivering sustenance from the tree of the cross just as the church shares forgiveness from the tree of the cross and becomes the noble cedar God has always intended!

The GuardianWhen, on a trip along the Loire, Victoria Moore wanted a wine to feel engaged by, something more than a "thoughtless brain-rinser", she felt herself steering towards Savennières.
"It's a small appellation on a curve of the northern bank of the Loire, south-west of Angers. It's less well known than Vouvray, another Chenin Blanc area to the east, but there is nothing second-rate about its wines," says Moore.
Savennières, she says, is "architectural" when compared to an entry-level Loire Chenin Blanc - a character endowed by the mineral-enhancing schist soil, explains a local winemaker.
She recommends La Jalousie 2007 (£13.99, Waitrose), with its "lovely, creamy-textured, lingering finish", and Closel Clos du Papillon 2004 (£19.95, James Nicholson), saying it "has reached a beautiful balance between maturity and vivacity".
The Sunday TimesThis week, down the allotment, Bob Tryer is suffering a serious bout of shed envy. But the kindly Mrs Tryer has offered to save his pride by buying him a timber-framed construction for Christmas.
"Less forbearing women," thinks Tryer, "might prefer to give presents that indulge cravings of their own ? such as Visciolata del Cardinale, a lush Italian dessert wine laced with sour cherry juice that gives it a tangy bite. Delicious poured over something chocolatey and eaten in secret (£16.50 for 50cl, millhillwines.com)."
While he thinks it might be a little self-indulgent of him to gift his almost teetotal wife six bottles of claret for Christmas, he thinks even she might appreciate the Larmandier-Bernier Vieille Vigne de Cramant Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut Grand Cru 2004 (£48.95-£55 from Lea & Sandeman and Berry Bros & Rudd). "A masterpiece," claims Tryer, "from one of Champagne's most accomplished small growers ? dry, elegant and floral, yet bursting with rich flavours."
The Times"Perfect parties," says Jane MacQuitty, "rely on one thing: the contents of your guests' glasses." So, her advice is not to ask friends to bring a bottle, which apparently "always ends in tears, hangovers and no one having a good time". Do the "grown-up thing" instead, and serve a decent party-wine duo and a couple of cocktails to boot, says the seasoned host.
Crucially, warns MacQuitty, don't confuse party guests with too much choice. Otherwise she forsees panic among over-obliging guests and a messy bid to taste the lot.
Her quick-fix cocktail recommendation is White Lady - a variation on the classic Sidecar that can be made in advance and stored in the fridge.
For a single serving, shake two measures of gin with half a measure of Cointreau or any good triple sec, some lemon juice and a whipped egg white. Shake ingredients over ice and strain into a chilled jug. Serve with a sliver of lemon peel curled over the edge. Easy.
The TelegraphImpressed by a section showcasing wines from independent merchants at the London Wine Show, Suzy Atkins is taking the opportunity to stray from her more usual, readily available supermarket recommendations.
Indies are generally more expensive, she concedes, but you're more likely to find something in a different league from the "piled-high big brands" and "cut-price own-labels", although she did find well-priced, premium Rhône and Bordeaux reds, and thought the lesser-known Champagnes offered good value too. Anyway, she implores, "it is the time of year to trade up a bit, surely?"
For fans of gutsy, peppery Rhône reds, she suggests trying Domaine La Bouissiere Gigondas 2006 (Lay & Wheeler, £13.50). "Although a spicy, satisfying wine, it has good balance, with a fresh blackberry note lifting the palate," she says.
The Financial TimesFrom an annual tasting rate of nearly 10,000 wines, Jancis Robinson MW has made the difficult selection of 75 white wine "good buys" for FT readers. Her choice concentrates on wines that are drinking well now.
Topping and tailing the list are Sainsbury's Vignerons de Buxy Bourgogne Blanc 2008 (£5.69), with a "nice top note of ripe apple juice and very juicy fruit on the palate", and Dom Bonneau de Martray Corton-Charlemagne 2003, "for those who like a Grand Cru white Burgundy with real oomph" - £85 at Jeroboams. Red wines, sparkling wine and Champagne, and strong and sweet wines will follow in the weeks running up to Christmas.


School is my safe haven. It's always been the only thing I was sure of whether it's because of the structure it provides or only because the people I have met in school have been irreplaceable. Whatever it is, I knew after graduating College that I wasn't ready for actual adulting yet and wanted to continue schooling.
With my interest in pursuing another degree came the fact that I also knew I could not afford another degree. As an international student, Grad School tuition is ridiculous. I knew I was not able to afford the luxury that is paying for my education and I needed to find other ways to make it work.
Of course, there are scholarships, grants and other incentives that exist to make your degree more affordable, but what if it wasn't just affordable? What if you were able to get it for next to nothing? I needed to get my degree at no cost to my pocket and here is how I did it and a few other ways that you could too.
Don't forget to share this to help someone else and comment below if you want me to write on something else or just to say hi! I love hearing from you.
I know I already mentioned these, but I had to say this twice. You should definitely look for scholarships and grants! And, if you get these combined- you are on your way to a free ride. It might be difficult to find one scholarship or grant that is going to cover the entirety of your tuition and other fees, but it does not hurt to try. There are several topic, gender, race, location-specific scholarships and grants available in any area, so try your luck with those.
I was pretty sure I was not gonna be getting a PHd, but at some point, I was seriously contemplating it. Why? Because most Ph.D. programs PAY YOU to go through their program. Now, You have to have your ish together and know exactly what you want to study and be a fantastic candidate but I already assume you are phenomenal. If doing a Ph.D. is not something that is so far off for you then try it! Go through the Ph.D. route and get PAID!!
This is how I am paying for school and is often the least searched means of paying for graduate school. I am currently getting free accommodation, as well as tuition paid in my degree and job and that is because of the graduate job I got and searched for. Most Universities employ graduate students with some tuition/all tuition paid, and most students miss out on these opportunities by not searching. Graduate assistantships in Student affairs, athletics, academics, and administrative offices at most universities offer many jobs that could qualify you to take classes for free if you're full-time. Don't plan on this being a smooth ride, though since most of these means you're juggling full-time course load and a job. Keep that in mind.
Are there any other ways to go to school for free? I know ether are lots more so comment a couple that you know and let's keep the resources coming!

Poshmark is pushing into the public market at a high-end valuation as the resale market sizzles – TechCrunch
January 14, 2021 adhigo 0 Comments market, poshmark, Public, pushing, resale, valuation
Poshmark, the nine-year-old, Redwood City Ca.-based online marketplace for second-hand clothing, beauty, and home decor products, is set to start trading as a public company on the Nasdaq tomorrow after tonight pricing 6.6 million shares higher than originally planned, according to Bloomberg.
Per its report, the company, which earlier expected to sell shares at between $35 and $39 million, saw enough demand to rationalize a $42-per-share price — one that values the company at $3.5 billion on a fully diluted basis.
Given investors' feverish embrace of all kinds of newly public consumer brands, including Airbnb, DoorDash and, to a more moderate degree, Wish (trading currently where it opened when it hit the market in mid-December), most industry observers anticipate smooth sailing for the company as it makes the move from private to publicly traded company.
It has numerous things going for it.
More than 70 million Poshmark users having sold more than 130 million items through the platform since its inception, according to the company. And its revenue is moving in the right direction. Poshmark makes money off commissions on peer-to-peer sales and on products that it sells via wholesale, and it turned profitable last year for the first time. According to its S-1, it produced net income of $21 million off revenue of $193 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared with a net loss of $34 million on revenue of $150 million during the same period in 2019.
Also, unlike many brick-and-mortar retail businesses that were hit especially hard by pandemic-related shutdowns — J. Crew, Neiman Marcus, and Brooks Brothers are just a few of many to declare bankruptcy — Poshmark only facilitates transactions between buyers and sellers, so it doesn't have the burden or expense of holding inventory.
Not last, resale platforms of all stripes have the wind at their back right now. Resale can be more affordable. It can be a means for sellers to make money. More, shoppers are more interested than ever in sustainability, and buying someone else's never- or lightly-used items is more environmentally friendly than supporting, say, a fast fashion brand. (Forever 21, the fast-fashion mall staple, filed for bankruptcy in 2019.)
What Poshmark has to overcome includes improving the customer experience, if a variety of review sites is to be believed. The company consistently receives poor marks for its quality control and support service.
Though profitable, it's not yet terribly profitable, which may need to change, and quickly.
Poshmark, which has raised $153 million from its venture investors, is also challenged with making public market investors understand how it differs from already publicly traded rivals like eBay and The RealReal, which went public in 2019 and whose current market cap is roughly $2.3 billion. It will also need to differentiate itself from other companies hot on its heels.
Indeed, one of its closest rivals, ThredUp, filed a confidential registration statement with the SEC for an IPO last fall around the same time that Poshmark did.

Marital property is divided based on the rules of equitable distribution.
In a Pennsylvania divorce, marital property is divided based on the rules of equitable distribution. This means property is divided "fairly", but not necessarily equally. "Equitable distribution" refers to the process of dividing marital assets and debts. If spouses can't agree how to divide their property, they may end up in court, where a judge will decide for them. The collaborative or mediation processes allow you to be in control of your property, rather than a Judge. Attorney Zanita A. Zacks-Gabriel is highly skilled in all matters of division of property and welcomes the opportunity to discuss how she can help you protect your assets.
In Pennsylvania divorces, property is characterized one of two ways. Separate property is property that belongs to one spouse, and marital property is property that's owned jointly by the couple.
Generally, Pennsylvania law allows separate (or "non-marital") property to escape the equitable distribution process. However, it's important to remember if separate property increases in value during the marriage, the increase in the value may be considered a marital asset. Or, if spouses use non-marital funds (eg., one spouse's pre-marriage savings) for a common purpose, such as purchasing a home during the marriage, those separate property funds used for the down payment may become marital property.
Property disputes are very common in divorce, but they often present complex legal issues and may require financial tracings: matters that are best left to legal professionals. If your divorce involves a dispute regarding the character of substantial property, contact attorney Zanita A. Zacks-Gabriel who can advise you of your rights.
Assets and income acquired during the marriage are presumed to be marital property. Some common examples include a home, business, retirement accounts, investments, furniture, art, and cars purchased or established during the marriage. And, title (the name under which property is owned) doesn't necessarily determine character. So, even if property, such as a car, was placed in only one spouse's name, it will generally be considered part of the marital estate if it was purchased during the marriage.
Some assets may have both a marital and separate component (eg., a retirement account that was established before the marriage, but which continued to grow during marriage). In that case, the separate value of the asset should be excluded from the equitable distribution process.
In addition to property, couples also need to divide debts. A debt is considered "marital" if it was incurred after the date of marriage and before the date of final separation. Marital debts include items such as mortgages, loans, credit card balances, and tax obligations. A debt may be considered marital even if it was incurred by only one of the spouses during the marriage. If, for example, one spouse runs up a big credit card bill for clothes or other items during the marriage, both spouses will be liable for the payments.
As stated above, equitable distribution is the process of dividing marital assets and debts. Because Pennsylvania is an equitable distribution state and not a community property state, its courts divide marital property based upon principles of equity, or in other words, what a judge thinks is fair. This does not necessarily mean that property will be divided equally.
When making such decisions, courts may consider a variety of factors, and can give them whatever weight they see fit.
Whether either spouse will be serving as the custodian of any minor children.
When making decisions about property, Pennsylvania courts do not consider either spouses "fault" in causing the divorce.
Although divorce may be emotional, most cases don't end up in trial. Spouses are usually able to negotiate and settle the issues in their divorce, especially in a collaborative or mediation process.
It may not be possible to predict how a judge would decide the issues in your case, but Zanita A. Zacks-Gabriel can advise you of the possible results. Armed with that knowledge, couples often prefer to reach their own agreements rather than endure the stress and expense of a trial.
The terms of a divorce agreement should be memorialized in a "marital settlement agreement" ("MSA"), which is a written contract between spouses that resolves most or all of the issues in their divorce, such as alimony, child custody, child support, and the division of property and debts. The provisions of an MSA will become part of a court's final judgment of divorce.
If you're going through a divorce and plan to negotiate with your spouse, Zanita can help you draft or review an MSA, and ensure that your rights are fully protected.

Jared Leto Tells Rayon's Truth In DALLAS BUYERS CLUB – Q&A
Posted on February 11 2014 by Editor
Telling the truth is exactly what Leto does with every roll. So much so that characters stick with him long after films are wrapped. "You leave a…
Star of "The Dallas Buyers Club" Jared Leto talks about his role as Rayon during an American Cinematheque Q&A session.
After a special screening of Director Jean-Marc Valee's Dallas Buyers Club at the famous Egyptian Theater (American Cinematheque) in Hollywood Oscar Nominee Jared Leto graced the audience and answered a few questions about the film. Leto, who plays a transgender woman with HIV named Rayon, is the supporting actor to Matthew McConaughey's homophobic character Ron Woodroof. The pairing couldn't be odder yet makes for one of the most captivating onscreen duos I have ever seen. The film is based on the real life experiences of Ron Woodruff surrounding his life beginning in 1985 after he was diagnosed with HIV and told he only had 30 days to live.
Pictured: Jared Leto during a Q&A session for DALLAS BUYERS CLUB
Jared Leto, who is also the lead vocalist in a very successful band named "Thirty Seconds To Mars", had not acted in a six years prior to the film. His band was at the top of their game and he had no motivation to act until he came in contact with the Dallas Buyer's Club script and was pulled in by the story and characters.
After a Skype audition in which he basically flirted with the director as the character Rayon he had the job. When asked about the long time in between films and what made him want to be a part of it he fell in love with the script. He believed the story was important and showed him a side of the world he had never seen before. Jared also talked about how he fell in love with the character who was such a dreamer full of beauty and grace. According to the actor the life he lived during his absence of the film world actually helped him play Rayon because of different experiences he has had and different people he has met.
He actually recommended all actors to take a break to pursue some other fields and passions as it can broaden your knowledge of the world. He feels as if it was the best thing he ever did. "It teaches you, it inspires you, and you take that and you're a better person for it."
The most difficult scene for him to shoot was a scene where he went to see Rayon's father and for the first time was not dressed in woman's clothing but instead wearing a man's suit. He feared without the clothing he would lose the character and ironically he says "for the first time I felt like I was in drag" because dressing in a suit was not who Rayon was.
In regards to how he chooses between different projects and passions he stated: "I act from on my instincts from my gut, my head, my heart… I'm compelled to make things. I've always been like that since I was a young kid. Whether it's directing, or acting, or making music it all comes from the same place. Panic and fear." He also stated "To be an actor, to be a director, to be an artist, to be a musician is not something you negotiate within yourself. You are compelled beyond a reasonable doubt or you don't do it… It can be the absolute worst thing ever and it can be a miracle."
This may sound crazy but the Golden Globe winner actually doesn't even feel like an actor although he does know what it takes to be a great one saying; "Really good actors are great liars. But really great actors tell the truth." Telling the truth is exactly what Leto does with every roll. So much so that characters stick with him long after films are wrapped. "You leave a piece of yourself up there. That may be one of the reasons I don't make that many films because they just tear you apart inside and out…Other people have other jobs that do that whether it's a painter or doctor or something else sometimes it just tears you up and you need to recover."
A man whose film work also includes "Requiem For a Dream", "Panic Room", and "Chapter 27" amongst other films and has been acting since the 90's does not feel like a veteran either. "I feel like in a lot of ways I have started again… as an actor this is the beginning" And if this is the beginning I'm sure I speak for most of us when I say I'm excited about what's to come.

Addressing 108th Indian Science Congress on the theme "Science and Technology for Sustainable Development with Women Empowerment." https://t.co/pK1jZAhp6C
— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) January 3, 2023
The focal theme of this year's ISC is "Science and Technology for Sustainable Development with Women Empowerment". It will witness discussions on issues of sustainable development, women empowerment and the role of science & technology in achieving this. The participants will discuss and deliberate on ways to increase the number of women in higher echelons of teaching, research and industry, along with trying to find ways to provide women with equal access to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) education, research opportunities and economic participation. A special programme to showcase the contribution of women in science and technology will also be held, which will also witness lectures by renowned women scientists.

Several other programmes will also be organised alongside ISC. Children's Science Congress will also be organised to help stimulate scientific interest and temperament among children. Farmer's Science Congress will provide a platform to improve the bio-economy and attract youth to agriculture. Tribal Science Congress will also be held, which will also be a platform for scientific display of indigenous ancient knowledge system and practice, along with focusing on the empowerment of tribal women.
The first session of the Congress was held in 1914. The 108th annual session of ISC is being held at Rashtrasant Tukadoji Maharaj Nagpur University, which is also celebrating its centenary this year.
The Indian Science Congress Association (ISCA) owes its origin to the foresight and initiative of two British Chemists, namely, Professor J. L. Simonsen and Professor P. S. Mac Mahon. It was their view that scientific research in India would be stimulated if an annual meeting of research workers somewhat on the lines of the British Association for the Advancement of Science could be arranged.
The Association was formed with the following objectives : i) To advance and promote the cause of Science in India; ii) To hold an annual Congress at a suitable place in India; iii) To publish such proceedings, journals, transactions and other publications as may be considered desirable; iv) To secure and manage funds and endowments for the promotion of Science including the rights of disposing of or selling all or any portion of the properties of the Association; and v) To do and perform any or all other acts, matters and things as are conducive to, or incidental to, or necessary for, the above objects.
