Northern Lights are spotted over Stirling, the Lake District and even as far south as DEVON
DUK Editor Team Send an email November 4, 2021
The Northern Lights were visible over Stirling, the Lake District and even as far south as Devon last night, as a huge solar flare hit the Earth.
According to the Met Office, a coronal mass ejection (CME) left the Sun on November 2, and as charged particles hit the Earth, a geomagnetic storm was generated, producing the stunning light shows.
Usually these displays are restricted to high-latitude regions around the Arctic and Antarctic.
But when the solar flares or coronal mass ejections are particularly strong, as was the case last night, these shows can appear at lower latitudes, with images shared of the light show in the Lake District, North Wales, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and even Devon.
There will be another geomagnetic storm tonight, expected to be between a level three and four (out of five), according to the Met Office.
This could lead to aurora being visible throughout the UK, not just in the most northerly parts, and could cause problems for GPS satellites.
The northern lights were visible over Hadrian's wall following a coronal mass ejection from the sun. The mesmerising display spread as south as Cambridgeshire
A spectacular display of the Northern Lights seen over Derwentwater, near Keswick in the Lake District, last night and into the early hours of Thursday amazed photographers and skygazers
One of the most southerly was this orange glow shared by Luke Farley, taken at about 9pm near Crediton in Devon
SOLAR FLARES AND CMEs
A solar flare is a tremendous explosion on the Sun that happens when energy stored in 'twisted' magnetic fields (usually above sunspots) is suddenly released.
In a matter of just a few minutes they heat material to many millions of degrees and produce a burst of radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum, including from radio waves to x-rays and gamma rays.
Solar flares are different to 'coronal mass ejections' (CMEs), which were once thought to be initiated by solar flares.
CMEs are huge bubbles of gas threaded with magnetic field lines that are ejected from the Sun over the course of several hours.
Skywatchers have been sharing images of the colourful light displays from across the UK, from faint glows over Bedfordshire, to glimmering dancing light shows in the north of Scotland.
The reason for the brighter, and more widespread aurora is down to a more active coronal mass ejection (CME).
It is what is known as a Cannibal type of CME, that is it sweeps up any slower flares that were ejected before it as it races towards the Earth.
Combined, they create a mash of strong magnetic fields and plasma that then act to generate geomagnetic storms as they hit the atmosphere.
These storms come in waves over a few days, with the first hitting last night, and another expected between 18:00 GMT and 01:00 GMT tonight.
In the UK a G4 storm, described as 'severe', will have no significant impact on the power grid, but elsewhere could lead to some control problems and even outages.
There will be some small issues for spacecraft that will require adjustments to orbital position, and radio frequencies could be disrupted on the Earth.
The Met Office space weather forecast for the next two days reads: 'The strong solar wind speeds following the arrival of the CME are likely to continue through day 1 (4th) and into day 2 (5th).'
In the north of Scotland the lights were a multicoloured display, but from Cambridgeshire (pictured) they were a muted glown on the horizon
The northern lights can be seen as a green glow lighting up the night sky over Ayr Beach in this image. When the solar flares or coronal mass ejections are particularly strong, as was the case last night, these shows can appear at lower latitudes, with images shared of the light show in the Lake District, North Wales, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and even Devon
Taken near Fernland in Cambridgeshire, the Northern Lights are just visible on the horizon. According to the Met Office , a coronal mass ejection (CME) left the Sun on November 2, and as charged particles hit the Earth, a geomagnetic storm was generated, producing the stunning light shows
There is a chance it will ease back, but they aren't overly confident in that forecast, predicting 'minor or moderate geomagnetic storms' potentially increasing.
There has been a marked increase in larger flares that can cause more southerly aurora in recent months.
The increase in solar activity is due to the fact the Sun has entered the more active phase of its 11-year cycle, according to astronomers.
Every 11 years, the polarity of the Sun's magnetic field shifts, and as it does so the forces in our star get tangled and punch through the surface – sending plasma into space as CMEs and solar flares.
There were multiple colours visible for residents of Eden Valley in Cumbria. Skywatchers have been sharing images of the colourful light displays from across the UK, from faint glows over Bedfordshire, to glimmering dancing light shows in the north of Scotland
They were even visible under the glowing light pollution of Edinburgh. The reason for the brighter, and more widespread aurora is down to a more active coronal mass ejection (CME)
One photographer, Roger Skillin, managed to capture a faint red glow from Cranfield, Bedfordshire. It is what is known as a Cannibal type of CME, that is it sweeps up any slower flares that were ejected before it as it races towards the Earth
SOLAR CYCLES AND AURORA ACTIVITY
The Sun has an 11-year cycle, where it increases and decreases in solar flare activity levels.
It entered the active phase of this cycle in 2020, and this has already resulted in an increase in the number of coronal mass ejections and solar flares reaching Earth.
This latest increase is expected to peak around 2025, after which it will begin to calm down again.
The Met Office told MailOnline: 'We are seeing a gradual increase in solar activity and associated space weather.
'This is due to us moving away from solar minimum (late 2019/early 2020) and towards the next solar maximum (expected around mid-2025).
'Over the next few years we can expect increasing solar activity, with a corresponding increase in space weather events affecting Earth and the near-Earth space environment.'
The Sun moved into the active phase of its cycle in 2020, which has already resulted in an increase in flares and solar storms reaching the Earth.
It will peak around 2025, around the time the ESA Solar Orbiter is expected to fly within 26 million miles of our star.
A solar flare is an intense burst of radiation coming from the release of magnetic energy associated with sunspots (areas that appear dark on the Sun's surface).
Solar flares are different to CMEs, which were once thought to be initiated by solar flares. Both are types of solar storms.
NASA explains: 'We typically see a solar flare by the photons (or light) it releases, at most every wavelength of the spectrum.
'The primary ways we monitor flares are in x-rays and optical light. Flares are also sites where particles (electrons, protons, and heavier particles) are accelerated.
'Flares are our solar system's largest explosive events. They are seen as bright areas on the sun and they can last from minutes to hours.'
In the Earth's north, the Northern Lights is officially known as the aurora borealis, while in the south it is called the aurora australis.
The Northern Lights has fascinated Earthlings for centuries, but the science behind it has not always been understood.
The Lake District enjoyed a bright and varied show, shown here in Eden Valley, Cumbria. Combined, they create a mash of strong magnetic fields and plasma that then act to generate geomagnetic storms as they hit the atmosphere
Knockmealdown, County Waterford in Ireland saw streaks of green and pink light over the horizon. These storms come in waves over a few days, with the first hitting last night, and another expected between 18:00 GMT and 01:00 GMT tonight

Earth has an invisible forcefield, the magnetosphere, that protects us from dangerous charged particles from the Sun.
The magnetosphere is the area around Earth controlled by the planet's magnetic field.
Science expert Marty Jopson explains: 'Whilst it shelters us, it also creates one of the most impressive phenomena on Earth – the Northern Lights.'
'When the deadly solar winds meet Earth's magnetosphere, some of the charged particles get trapped, and are propelled down the Earth's magnetic field lines straight towards the poles.

Northern Lights over Stirling, Scotland. The Sun moved into the active phase of its cycle in 2020, which has already resulted in an increase in flares and solar storms reaching the Earth
'And when they reach Earth, they strike atoms and molecules in our atmosphere, releasing energy in the form of light.'
Unfortunately, disruption to our magnetic field can also affect satellites in orbit, navigation systems, terrestrial power grids and data and communication networks.
'Harmful space weather has affected Earth before, but as we become increasingly reliant on systems and technologies vulnerable to the Sun's outbursts, future solar impacts could be even more disruptive,' says the European Space Agency (ESA).
WHAT ARE AURORAS AND WHAT TRIGGERS THE STUNNING NATURAL DISPLAYS?
The Northern and Southern Lights are natural light spectacles triggered in our atmosphere that are also known as the 'Auroras'.
There are two types of Aurora – Aurora Borealis, which means 'dawn of the north', and Aurora Australis, 'dawn of the south.'
The displays light up when electrically charged particles from the sun enter the Earth's atmosphere.
There are two types of Aurora – Aurora Borealis (file photo), which means 'dawn of the north', and Aurora Australis, 'dawn of the south.' The displays light up when electrically charged particles from the sun enter the Earth's atmosphere
Usually the particles, sometimes referred to as a solar storm, are deflected by Earth's magnetic field.
But during stronger storms they enter the atmosphere and collide with gas particles, including hydrogen and helium.
These collisions emit light. Auroral displays appear in many colours although pale green and pink are common.
GEOMAGNETIC STORM SEVERITY LEVELS
POSSIBLE EFFECTS
G1 Minor Power systems: Weak power grid fluctuations can occur.
Other systems: Migratory animals are affected at this and higher levels; aurora is commonly visible at high latitudes.
G2 Moderate Power systems: high-latitude power systems may experience voltage alarms, long-duration storms may cause transformer damage.
Other systems: HF radio propagation can fade at higher latitudes, and aurora has been seen at 55° geomagnetic lat..
G3 Strong Power systems: voltage corrections may be required, false alarms triggered on some protection devices.
Other systems: intermittent satellite navigation and low-frequency radio navigation problems may occur, HF radio may be intermittent, and aurora has been seen at 50° geomagnetic lat..
G4 Severe Power systems: possible widespread voltage control problems and some protective systems will mistakenly trip out key assets from the grid.
Other systems: induced pipeline currents affect preventive measures, HF radio propagation sporadic, satellite navigation degraded for hours, low-frequency radio navigation disrupted, and aurora has been seen as low at 45° geomagnetic lat..
G5 Extreme Power systems: widespread voltage control problems and protective system problems can occur, some grid systems may experience complete collapse or blackouts. Transformers may experience damage.
Other systems: Pipeline currents can reach hundreds of amps, HF (high frequency) radio propagation may be impossible in many areas for one to two days, satellite navigation may be degraded for days, low-frequency radio navigation can be out for hours, and aurora has been seen at 40° geomagnetic lat..

Ancap likes to do things a little different. Retaining their high-quality production standards is one way they stand out, design is another. With the Giotto model of saucers, Ancap opted to move the cup placement off-center creating both a unique look, as well as some extra space to work with for those who like to serve their espresso or cappuccino with a spoon or biscotti. Like all of Ancap's products, the Giotto saucers are 100% Made in Italy, produced from the highest quality raw ingredients available, and fired at temperatures far above the industry standard.
The Giotto saucer line features off-center cup placement along with a classic upward slope to the outer rim.
The Giotto Saucers will fit any Ancap Cup Model that is the same corresponding size (e.g. Giotto Espresso Saucer will fit Verona 1.9oz, 2.5oz, and 4.4oz, Torino 2.4oz, as well as Edizione Italia in Bici [Giotto Style Cup], and Edizione Arlecchino [Edex Style Cup] Espresso cups).
The gift was a success.
The gift was a success. Thank you!
Really love these Giotto saucers...but just wish they were available in a slightly larger size that matched the latte cups better.
Great quality! Jwe saw these cups at a restaurant in Italy on our honeymoon! So happy to find them. Just add a few more pics to give an indication of the size. For example put the cup in someone's hand so we know approximately how big the cup is. We are fortunately happy with our cups, but it still would have helped a little more.
These are high quality very nice, will buy again.
Just what I was looking for.. easy to search website and fast free delivery... what more can you ask for?

This is so fascinating. I love what you said here dear Carrie.
I am going through similar questing.
You may be interested in my crowd funding site for the Holy Spirit Wisdom Cards I have created…… with my partner the Holy Spirit.
I am asking only for 5000 euros, enough to get a first run of the printing. Many people have told me I should ask for 10,000 euros, to print more, but that is not what I felt.
What is enough? What part of us gives limits on ourselves?
What a crazy world we live in…… do you ever feel you are going nuts? I do! Anyhow thank you for your wonder full writings and inspirations in all ways.
In the Great love, Alice Friend.
The money is nothing. Even the cards (I'm sure they're wonderful) are nothing. But how we feel way deep down…the lies we whisper about self and others in the dark…that's something worth looking at, always.


BIT Mesra Times- News from Bit!: College is Wifi enabled!
It seems that Wifi was in college from some time. Just that it is only in the collage and not in the hostels. But fortunately its a unsecured Wifi network with anyone able to login. So people from hostel 1 are using it, coz it is the only hostel where Wifi network reaches.
And it has amazing speed, too. But we are still using our trusty dial up. A wifi card is too costly, and we dont know till when the network will be unsecured.

The Atlantic League, an independent circuit with seven teams on the East Coast and one in Texas, will become the first American professional baseball league to let a computer call balls and strikes at its All-Star Game on Wednesday night in York, Pennsylvania.
Baseball's 'robot umpires' are here, and you might not even notice the difference
By Jacob Bogage / The Washington Post
The either long-dreaded or long-awaited arrival of digitally rendered ballpark justice has come to professional baseball. "Robot umpires" have arrived.
Except, they're not really robots. They're human umpires wearing a Bluetooth-connected earpiece, connected to an iPhone, connected to a software program in the press box. The software doesn't make every call, just balls and strikes. And if it's wrong, the human umpire can step in to overrule the program, and his decision, not the software's, is final.
"It's amazing how good these robots look. They look just like the actual umpires," league president Rick White joked in a phone interview. "I think once people actually see this happening, they're going to realize it's not that big a deal."
League officials have quietly tested software, created by sports data firm Trackman and provided by Major League Baseball, for weeks during real games in New Britain, Connecticut, and Bridgewater, New Jersey. For a few innings or an entire game, umpires have heard "ball," "strike" or "did not track" through the earpiece, then conveyed Trackman's call, only overturning the software on a technical glitch. Home plate umpires continue to rule on check swings, foul tips, catcher's interference and plays at the plate. (While the program has been provisionally tested, with managers being informed before the game when Trackman would be used, Wednesday's All-Star Game begins the league's formal rollout.)
Officials have monitored everything from the time it takes the software to communicate "ball" or "strike" into the umpire's ear to the software's loyalty to baseball's sacrosanct strike zone: "That area over home plate the upper limit of which is a horizontal line at the midpoint between the top of the shoulders and the top of the uniform pants, and the lower level is a line at the hollow beneath the knee cap," according to the Major League Baseball rule book.
Even during the testing period, the technology has changed. Umpires first experimenting with the system were equipped with a radio-receiver belt pack. Now, they slip an iPhone connected to a WiFi network into a back pocket.
The Atlantic League is set to install the system, run via a small panel placed in an elevated position behind home plate, in each of its club's ballparks for use in the second half of its 140-game regular season. Then baseball's next generation of electronic transformation will have arrived, and it will be more subtle than you think, unless you can spot a single Apple AirPod in the home plate umpire's ear behind his mask.
"I have seen this coming. It's inevitable," Atlantic League umpire Derek Moccia said. "The game is changing. Baseball needs to speed up to keep up with the world. And if you want to be on board with this, you have to keep up. The game is bigger than you, bigger than any player."
The experiment is part of a three-year agreement with MLB that allowed big league officials to install experimental rules in the Atlantic League to study their effects on game play, strategy, tempo and prospect development. In return, MLB promised to "enhance its scouting coverage of the Atlantic League" and to install hardware to enable advanced analytical study of players.
Some of those rule changes include a prohibition against mound visits, a ban of defensive shifts, a three-batter minimum for new pitchers and larger bases (18-by-18 inches, rather than 15-by-15). In the second half of the season, the league will allow batters to steal first base: Any pitch on any count not caught in flight will be considered a live ball, and a batter may run to first base, similar to a dropped third strike.
Based on the results, MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred could consider implementing new rules after the league's labor agreement expires in 2021. Manfred has reportedly already discussed instituting a 20-second pitch clock. The Atlantic League already employs a 12-second pitch clock.
Much of the tension around the rule changes for the developmental league — which baseball insiders liken to Class AAA in affiliated minor league baseball — has focused on the action behind the plate as American sports' most analog game continues a steady creep toward the digital world.
Batsmen in baseball's earliest iterations used to order the pitcher where they wanted the ball thrown (low, high, or "fair" — right down the middle), and umpires would declare the pitch a ball or strike in a much smaller zone. Now, a computer will judge balls and strikes in a preprogrammed strike zone that hitters, pitchers, coaches and umpires alike say has changed decadeslong expectations.
Although professional umpires are overwhelmingly consistent, each ump's strike zone has some natural variance. The game's human element makes officials susceptible to gamesmanship, such as when a catcher "frames" a pitch with his mitt to make it appear more attractive, or when a batter feigns stepping away from an offering to make it appear inhospitably inside.
"When an umpire is having a bad day, they can't wait for the electronic strike zone," said Mauro Gozzo, manager of the New Britain Bees. "But when your pitcher is rolling and he's not getting that call that he normally gets of that pitch three inches off the plate, that's going to get some players upset."
"I always tell people, 'It could benefit me,' " Somerset Patriots reliever Nate Roe said. "It could benefit me as far as pitch location or pitch break. I'm trying to stay very positive about the whole thing."
Atlantic League players, coaches and umpires who spoke with The Washington Post said they favor the new software. Players and coaches lauded the system's consistency and predicted it would end generations of bickering over balls and strikes.
"If a hitter or pitcher has an argument, who are they necessarily going to argue with anymore?" Somerset pitching coach Jon Hunton said. "There's never been a pitch in baseball that's ever been overturned from a ball to a strike or a strike to a ball."
Umpires who have used the system said that although Trackman makes their jobs slightly more mechanical, it helps them call a fair game.
"I believe that I'm doing a decent job, but now I'm doing it with Trackman," Baker said, "and that's another tool I'll have to help me."
The consensus about the Trackman system from league officials, players and coaches is that it is more lenient on height but stricter on width. The software has called high pitches for strikes that many umpires consider too high. Breaking pitches that bounce in front of the catcher before crossing home plate have also been called strikes because the software has detected that the ball crossed the front of the plate even with the batter's knee.
"I try to think that I have a good judgment of the strike zone, and in terms of consistency, it's just minor differences between my zone and the Trackman zone," umpire Calvin Baker said. "So do I trust my zone better? Absolutely."
"I make a joke that if Trackman wants to stay in this league, it better tighten up," Moccia said. "The players have patience. They want to be part of [bringing more technology into baseball] just like us umpires be a part of it, but that patience at some point is going to wear thin."

More evidence that Esquire, while generally being a fine magazine, was on crack when they tabbed Jessica Biel as the sexiest woman alive.
Britain took a respectable swing at the thing, though The Ford wonders if they weren't a weee bit biased in putting three Brits in the top five.
Not a bad one in the bunch, really, especially considering the exclusion of Ms. Biel. No word on where she finished, but it wasn't the top 10, according to this story, notable also for its ridiculous localization of a national story.
"At number 26 is Oscar-winning actress Charlize Theron, who is going out with Irish actor Stuart Townsend, who starred in a movie about the Shankill Butchers."
Just what The Ford was thinking.

In summing up the District Judge commented that it was unfortunate that the Tariq's had taken on building surveyor students in their final year who had knowledge of building failures and rightly complained of the conditions they were living in. This was in contrast to the vulnerable international students who were living in worse conditions on the upper floors. He set the fees as a warning to those who wish to do the same.
Two Rogue Landlords have been rumbled by building surveyor students in their final year who had knowledge of the lack of building standards of their private rented property at 26 -28 Corporation Oaks, Nottingham.
The hearing at Nottingham's Magistrates Court on 12 November found Mr Irafan Tariq and Mrs Sajadah Tariq of 55 Ringwood Crescent, Wollaton, Nottingham guilty in their absence for multiple breaches of safety standards and lack of licensing.
Following complaints via Nottingham Trent University's Student Advice Centre and a Fire Officer, Safer Housing officers visited this former nursing home. Mrs Tariq was present and stated there was no one living there, although there were belongings relating to tenants including mobile phones and laptops on charge. Mrs Tariq stated these belongings had been left by former tenants and she was going to get rid of them.
When a warrant was applied for and granted and entry was gained, the property was found to be occupied by seven international students on the upper floors and five building surveyor students on the ground floor.
There were many contraventions of The Management of Houses in Multiple Occupation (England) Regulations 2006 which included items of disrepair and management issues such as a live electrical cable protruding out of a kitchen floor and a kitchen fire door removed. Further breeches include an escape exit door screwed shut, dirty conditions in kitchens, no heating and the fire alarm system was not working.
The Tariq's were both found guilty in their absence for offences under the following:
The Housing Act 2004, Part 2, Section 61 and 72 (1) for failure to licence the property.
Seven offences under The Management of Houses in Multiple Occupation (England) Regulations 2006, Sections 3, 4, 7, 8 and 9.
This was Mr Irfan Tariq's second offence for similar Housing Act related offences. He was fined £8,000 in June regarding 2 Carlton Road, Nottingham. Yesterday he was fined:
£8,000 for failure to licence
£1,000 for each breach of Management Regulations = £7,000
Required to pay £120 victim surcharge
Required to pay 50% of the Council's costs = £1,512.
Total of £16,632.
Mrs Sajadah Tariq was also fined:
Combined total of £30,264
Councillor Nicola Heaton, Portfolio Holder for Community Services at Nottingham City Council, said: "The Tariq's were operating a business, and making money from this. If they had applied for a licence the authorities would have ensured the property was to the correct standard before the property was let out. Instead they chose not to, which left young students vulnerable and in a house that was unsafe and not fit for the private rental market."

   <xsl:if test="contains($zipCode,$target) and string-length(substring-        after($outputString,$target)) >1">
       <xsl:value-of select="substring-after($zipCode,$target)"/>
   </xsl:if>
 </xsl:template>

Unfortunately there are several zip code in the document output document and they all have different element names. For example in one place it is called <shipping_zip> and in another <personZip> and so on.  How can best generate these elements for the value obtained from the template?

Q: How to conditionally link against a library using Visual Studio Is there a mechanism (command line arguments, environment variables, config settings, or anything else) that would allow, within the same Visual Studio project, to conditionally link against a library based on the target Windows version?
Specifically, I want to only link in a particular library if the target Windows version is newer than Windows Vista.
I compile on Windows 10, and I want to produce two builds:

*

*One build for Windows Vista that does not link in the library (since the library is not compatible with Vista)

*One build for Windows 7 and newer that does link in the library

I am compiling using Visual Studio 2015.

A: The easy way would be to create multiple solution configurations (one for 7 and newer, the other for vista) then add the library to the newer configuration. This would be done first under Build ->Configuration Manager, and in the Configuration combo select New, You will want to create Debug/Release pair for "Debug - Vista", "Release - Vista" and then use "Edit" to change the existing "Debug" and "Release" to "Debug - 7" and "Release - 7".
After doing this, go into the project settings and change to your new configurations and pass however you specify windows version as preprocessor directives and add the library.
That way you can perform either build without changing any actual code or even having to change the preprocessor directives passed on the command line on an ongoing basis.

La route nationale 34 (RN 34 o N 34) è una strada nazionale che parte da Parigi e termina ad Esternay.

Percorso
Comincia dalla porte de Vincennes ed attraversa Vincennes col nome di D120, passando accanto al castello. A Nogent-sur-Marne prosegue come D86, poi D34, fino a Neuilly-sur-Marne, dove si trova l'unico tratto ancora classificato come strada nazionale. Da Chelles è stata invece declassata a D934 e condivide una breve porzione con l'autoroute A104 in corrispondenza dell'attraversamento della Marna, che l'ex N34 continua poi a seguire.

Raggiunge così Lagny-sur-Marne, Montévrain e Montry, da dove risale il Grand Morin in direzione sud-est fino al termine del percorso. Serve Crécy-la-Chapelle, Mouroux e Coulommiers, quindi termina poco ad ovest del paese di Esternay, presso l'innesto sulla N4.

Biz Intel Expanded in Microsoft's SQL Server
[From internetnews.com]
Microsoft (Quote, Chart) is expanding business intelligence capabilities in its database software with two free software service packs that augment the reporting capabilities in SQL Server 2000.
The packs were unveiled Wednesday at the annual 2004 Professional Association of SQL Server Community Summit in Orlando, Fla., where the company also updated attendees on product name changes and additional support within SQL Server division.
Kirsten Ward, lead product manager for SQL Server at Microsoft, said the report packs, or templates for commonly used reports, come as a result of the overwhelming success SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services has had since it launched last January -- more than 100,000 downloads.

Rich Tola to star in 'Godfather' remake
April Fools! But really, wouldn't it be nice if all our dreams came true? At least in the world of make believe – and I don't mean Hollywood – anything is possible. Today, why not consider your world of make believe the real deal? Like rapper sensation Drake croons in Nicki Minaj's hit single, Moment 4 Life, "everybody dies but not everybody lives". So on this April Fools' Day 2011, imagine yourself in your wildest possible dream, and just live. Because life is short and the days fly by. And if by chance your wildest dream includes you looking like a movie star with that perfect body, here's your chance to get started with my 5 minute fat burning workout #37 that combines some Zen with that Warrior in you. It's called Peaceful Warrior. And I'll see you next time! -R
There's so much to speak of these days that's very sad but true. In addition to the catastrophes and chaos around the globe, this morning I learned about the passing of legendary speech pathologist and dialogue coach, Sam Chwat. Sam helped thousands of people with speech challenges, as well as coach Hollywood stars like Robert DeNiro, Julia Roberts, Andie MacDowell and Tony Danza, to perfect and/or eliminate accents. I was fortunate enough to meet Sam the winter of 2006, when I received coaching from his associate, Jessica, before moving to Los Angeles. He was exactly 10 years older than me. An age far too young to go. So today, let's open ours hearts to all those who are suffering and all those who have passed. And enjoy workout #19 – Heart Openers. R

Code And Text Editors • markdown
Introduction to Haroopad
by Frank Hofmann
In one of our previous blog articles we have already given you an introduction to Markdown — an easy-to-write, clever and very flexible document description language. Markdown allows you to generate HTML documents as well as to maintain technical documentation, blog articles, and presentations. Furthermore, we talked about writing Markdown documents using the text editors PileMD and EME. In this article we focus on Haroopad which claims to be the next document processor for the Markdown language licensed under GPLv3.As long-term writers we have clearly figured out which tools help us in order to be most productive to create text documents — either working on the command-line, or using a graphical user interface (GUI). As an example, Pandoc, Asciidoc and Asciidoctor are command-line tools to transform Markdown documents into HTML files whereas PileMd, Vim-gtk, Atom and Haroopad follow an approach based on a GUI, instead. Figure 1 shows how Haroopad looks like — a dual-panel approach with the source code of the document on the left, and the document translated into HTML on the right side.
Haroopad aims to give you the same experiences in editing regardless of the platform you are working on. Developed by the Korean programmer Rhio Kim, Haroopad is available from the project website for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux as binary packages for 32 and 64 bit systems. For this article we have tested the package for Debian GNU/Linux 9 (64 bit) and downloaded the according deb package.
To install the Haroopad package on your machine use the following command (as user root or via sudo command):
$ dpkg -i haroopad-v0.13.1-x64.deb
In our test environment just a single software package was missing — the GNOME configuration library named libgconf-2-4. Use either apt, apt-get or aptitude to install the missing package:
$ apt-get install libgconf-2-4
Haroopad itself is based on NodeJS/webkit and is fully documented online. The Haroopad binary package does not contain a manual page, nor has Haroopad help options available as it is common for UNIX/Linux programs like –help. In order to have a look at both the source code and the documentation you will also have to download the corresponding package from GitHub.
Once you have completed the installation you can either start Haroopad by selecting the entry from the Development section of the software menu on your Linux desktop accordingly or by using the following command in a terminal:
$ haroopad
Similar to figure 1 the Haroopad window opens and allows you to edit a new document right away. As already explained above the left panel contains the edit window (the Markdown source code of the document) and the right panel contains its translation that is synchronised with the source code of the document as soon as you have changed it. Above the panels you will find a menu with common items to open and close files, search for text by pattern, insert specific Markdown elements and adjust the way the Haroopad GUI looks like.
The bottom line of the Haroopad window (see Figure 2) contains several items that range from a help window to statistical information, donation buttons, publishing directly on various social media channels and display options. The spaces button allows you to adjust the tab width of the editor window and the column button switches between the way the text is displayed in the output document — as single, double, or three columns. The wheel at the right end allows you to toggle between a normal and a full-screen display.
Exporting documents
Once you are done with your document Haroopad offers to store it in different formats such as an email, as raw HTML, and HTML combined with CSS. The current version failed to export but the menu entry "File" -> "Save as" worked, and created a HTML/CSS page (see figure 3).
Haroopad Experiences
What we like about Haroopad is that its complexity is made available in a very simple user interface combined with the What You See Is What You Get approach (WYSIWYG). Writing Markdown feels easy anyway but Haroopad simplifies it even a bit more. This includes auto-completion of lists as well as pre-defined text modules for inline code, text emphasis, links and blockquotes. Also, there is support for several Markdown dialects that are used in GitHub for example. If desired you can enable keybindings for Vi/Vim. Figure 4 shows the according Insert menu.
Haroopad is very customizable in terms of themes for the GUI as well as the general layout, the font size, text indentations and automated corrections if needed. Figure 5 shows the preferences dialog. You can extend the list of available themes by adding your own CSS-based layouts.
Haroopad can be used for scientific documents as well. Using the JavaScript engine MathJax, mathematical equations can be exported to the browser. Also, LaTeX output is supported.
On the downside of Haroopad is that some parts of the software package need further improvements and that the official documentation is in Korean. So it may be a bit hard for non-Korean speakers to find their way around Haroopad. Step by step the translation into English is done.
Also, the default theme is quite dark and makes it a bit complicated to read the source code of the document. A lighter theme could be an option, and improve the usability.
Haroopad simplifies your life a lot. It is quite stable and it is fun to use. Haroopad is under constant development for the given platforms. It is a powerful competitor of Atom, Remarkable and ReText. We are excited to see it grow. Well done!

WE'VE PUT OUR TRUST IN YOU.. NOW EARN IT
Sri Lanka v England 1ST TEST, KANDY STARTING DECEMBER 1 Hard-line Moores warns Harmy to prove he's ready for Test cricket
Steve Harmison has done the easy part in getting himself to Sri Lanka, now he has to prove himself all over again to Peter Moores.
The England coach was happy enough to add Harmison to the squad preparing for a three-Test series here.
But until he has seen the paceman with his own eyes, a recommendation for the 1st XI is still a way off.
There is no doubt that selection is wide open for the start of this series, but it appears Harmison has a fair bit of work to do if he is to catch up with Ryan Sidebottom, Stuart Broad and Matthew Hoggard - who have all been busting a gut since they arrived.
In James Anderson's case a slight back twinge has so far hampered his training, but the Lancashire quickie is getting better and better with every delivery he sends down.
Moores knows he has some tough decisions to make on the bowling front and, in Harmison's case, it might be one thing convincing your old county opening partner to back you, but quite another convincing the head coach.
"The decision to bring him over took quite a bit of thought actually," admitted Moores. "Steve has missed a lot of cricket, so the decision as to where he was at physically and then bowling-wise needed to be left as long as it possibly could.
"At the moment I'm going off reports from other people, so I want to see for myself where he is - as will the captain and David Graveney when he gets here. Once you get the player with you, you can talk to him.
"Then you can watch him perform and practise to see where he's at mentally and physically. You can have a proper look.
"Normally then something will tell you which way to go. Steve has got a lot of experience in his locker, but he is going to have to be in the right place to play.
"It is key that the message is 'you've got to be in good enough form to play for England as well'.
"Steve committed to that and he is far enough down the line to let him join the squad and what is a very competitive environment.
"Steve knows he needs to bowl to get the consistency he requires as a bowler. Everybody has watched him bowl well and knows how much of a challenge he presents because of his height and his bounce - but he needs to have the ball in the right areas.
"He has worked very hard for three weeks. We'll have to wait and see if that will be enough to get him where we want him to be to represent England in that first Test."
Anderson's inclusion in today's first warm-up match highlights how much better he feels after a back problem disrupted his bowling on Sunday.
The Burnley-born star hopes to be back to his slingy best over the next couple of days to continue piling the pressure on his rivals.
Every bowler knows he's in with a shout of Test action come December 1 in Kandy and the efforts in training reflect that. The addition of Harmison adds spice to the mix and gives the selectors another option since no other bowler can provide his bounce and pace.
Moores was keen to point out how the scheduling makes room for everyone eventually.
But, in reality, the game starting today against a powerful Board President's XI launches a battle that will run and run.
"James had a niggle after doing a bit of work in the gym," Moores revealed.
"I don't think it is anything major and he was better today.
"He'll probably be able to bowl through it, getting better and better so he will take part in this game - but we will be careful with the injury.
"It is nice to have that height and bounce option within the squad, but I'll say to Steve that with him missing so much cricket and with Matthew and the other lads being over here, it is quite rare to have such an open field for the first Test places.
"In international cricket you need a bank of bowlers because of the physical demands.
How many we will need in this series I don't know but we play 15 days of cricket in 22, which is a tough schedule."
'Steve has a lot of experience, but he is going to have to be in the right place to play. It is key that the message is 'you've got to be in good enough form to play for England too'

I began this project with the optimistic hope of being able to get at least a little of it on its feet before the end of the semester. That is, I wanted to see some of Jean Toomer's words being spoken by actors, script in hand, standing up, with other actors. I didn't expect a full production, but I was hoping for a few workshops with the goal in mind of a staged reading. An optimistic goal, yes, but not an impossible one. I'd like to think if I were to do it over again I might be able to put it together with more preparation. The biggest trouble I ran across is simple networking: theater is a collaborative action, and without the right people— not simply actors, everyone — it is impossible to get anything done. If I was still in New York I could probably get a good group people together who would be excited by the project. But I simply didn't know enough people at Yale, undergrad or YSD. This is my fault entirely, as I've largely stepped away from theatrical work in my two years in New Haven.
But I realized as I was doing the research for this project that this is probably a good thing. So much of this project depends on what happens in the workshop, that it is absolutely essential that all the background work is done before anyone sets foot in a rehearsal room. That means knowing the text inside out, knowing the history, the critical environment, the reception. In short, a person taking on this project needs to do their homework. It is best that I'm spending this semester gathering all the necessary background before making any steps towards a production. My hope is that the script, methods, and dramaturgy packet will serve as jumping off point.
Moving forward, I still want to see this play come to a workshop, and for that I would be most happy working with a director of color and serving as a writer/dramaturg. The question of point of view is very important to me — I have no desire to stage "my" version of Jean Toomer, or "my" adaptation of Kabnis. I want to present a set of material that a "we," a diverse "we," can use to explore what our Jean Toomer, our Kabnis, might look like.
Mostly though, I've grown tired of my voice. Academic training encourages one to develop confidence in one's voice and one's opinions, and rewards those who can hold forth those opinions loudly and without interruption. I appreciate the need for this, but it's not something I prefer. A certain receptivity, a capacity to listen and learn, is also necessary. After all, in English we are first and foremost readers, and the capacity we should be most proud of is our capacity for understanding. Sometimes that gets lost in the struggle to be heard though. I like to remind myself that I am not here to have opinions, but to work towards understandings. And for that one sometimes needs to step away from one's own voice.
The thing about theater, that might not be obvious to an outsider, is that it is collaborative — and not simply collaborative, but necessarily collaborative. Without collaboration it simply evaporates. Unlike film, which is collaborative but highly curated (the director and editor pick and choose the final product), theater lives in its own chaotic moment, a moment built out of the simultaneous actions of dozens of people: actors, lighting and sound board operators, stage managers, costume designers, costume fitters, backstage crew. Even the ushers have a hand in crafting the moment by organizing the audience. In this liveness the writer and director vanish (in union shows, the director is not even allowed to be present after opening night). The writer and director help to bring the show to life, but once the show begins it has to live on its own, on its own terms, with its own collaborative heartbeat.
And because of that, playwriting needs to be open for collaboration. It has to be receptive to diverse interpretations. A written line needs to be specific enough to give insight into character and move a plot forward, but open enough that any actor speaking the line would say it differently. That the same actor would say it differently every night. Without that openness it's just flat and uninteresting as a play, both to watch and to perform. Some critics call this subtext, but I think that's not giving it enough credit — it's text, the text of the performance, while the written lines are merely scaffolding.
The text of Kabnis as is, is perhaps not the most brilliant playwriting ever put to paper. But the text of Kabnis in the context of Cane is different. There, it is open. There, the character of Ralph Kabnis becomes both the writer of the poems and the failure of writing the poems. The underdeveloped women in Kabnis become the vivid and powerful women of vignettes like "Karintha" and "Fern." The strange voice of the wind is also the voice of the poet, the voice of the abstract and unnamed reaper of "Harvest Song," the voice of a whole way of life sinking into the earth. It is also contemporary reactions to these things, and reactions to those reactions. This is what interests me in Kabnis, not the words but the possibilities of understanding. And to explore these I feel a collaboration is essential.
I envision Act I opening with Kabnis scene 1, expanded with portions of Cane Part I told in a halting, choreopoem style, where Kabnis-as-writer starts and stops in his composition, frustrated. Important events from Scene 2 can be put into Act I, such as the brick thrown through the window and Kabnis's run through the night. But the structure of Kabnis being alone for much of this act can be preserved, if the rest of the cast plays the characters he is writing, the wind, songs heard from outside, and his dreams.
For Act II, one way to condense for time would be to excise scenes 2-4 and start immediately with the party. One thing this would do would be to keep the female characters, Cora, Stella, and Carrie K., on stage the entire time, instead of waiting backstage for an hour for the men to discuss manly things. I want to show Cora and Stella as essential to the plot, not only in the party scene, but as the animating force behind the writings of Cane part I. Excising 2-4 also allows one to get rid of the characters of Hanby and Mr. Ramsey, who are already better known for their impact on other characters than for their actual presence. The character of Lewis, who now does not appear until the end of Scene 3, can now appear at the beginning of Act II, jump-starting the Kabnis-Lewis rivalry at the heart of the play.
Act III can then be Scene 6, where a drunken Kabnis not only confronts his father-figure the old man Father John, but is haunted by the failure both of himself as a poet in capturing the South in words, and the failure of his race to rise out of slavery. Spirituals, prayers, poems. After the climax of scene 6 and Kabnis's exit, the cast should perform "Harvest Song," completing the spiritual circle that Toomer envisioned.
The dramaturgical packet is a useful batch of information. If I had more time I would do a much more serious dive into rural south clothing in the 1920s, and what the shacks, schools, and workshops of Sparta, GA might have looked like. I tried to include a little bit of all the critical articles I read through, but of course that could always include more.
The formatted script of Kabnis is ready to go.
Another thing not included in these pages but a part of what's been accomplished is the short mock rehearsal we staged at the American Lit in the World conference. There, I had volunteers from the audience come on stage and read a lightly edited version of the first vignette in Cane, "Karintha." One young woman stood in as the title character and three men the men of the town. First the men read "Karintha" to her, defining her in front of them. Then, she read the rest of "Karintha" herself, and the men defined themselves in relation to her.
It was a mildly beautiful thing to behold, seeing these students, not actors, get into the mindset very quickly. What they produced was, as Avery said, was something like a "choreopoem," like that of for colored girls who have considered suicide / when the rainbow is enuf, I was mostly interested in how the woman playing Karintha would react to these men telling her what Karintha is, versus her telling them. I think there is a lot of room in this small scene to play with irony and resistance. Watching them convinced me that not only is this a viable project, but it's something that should have been done a long time ago.
All in all I feel like the project is in a good position, ready and able to take the next step into workshops.
The fact that this is not a full production yet is a shortcoming. It really should be! Someone should throw heaps of money and the best directors in the business at this project.
I used the dramaturgy packet to focus on Kabnis. Given more time I could have explored all the vignettes and short stories in detail, glossing especially the poems and vignettes of part I. The longer stories in Part II probably will not become part of this project, except perhaps in small excised portions. I could have made these cuttings and put them together in a packet of possible scripts, and probably will do so in the future.
Given time I could write a through-script of how a synthesis of Kabnis with the rest of Cane could look like. I've been avoiding this, since I want to see how people (actors of color) react to the texts as is first, before working through how they would fit together. I do worry that unless I write down some ideas how how these disparate pieces would fit together I may have a hard time explaining the project to people who aren't already familiar with it.
Toomer wrote at least five other plays: Natalie Mann, Balo, The Sacred Factory, The Gallonwerps, and the unfinished A Drama of the Southwest. The Gallonwerps was originally a novel rewritten as a marionette play. A study of these, and on his overall failure to find an audience for his dramatic work, would be important to bring into a study of Kabnis, and I would add these to the dramaturgy packet given more time.


Well. Here is a photo of my Western Redbud in bloom.
It is a tiny tree, to be sure, but t'is mine. And I planted it, as per the instructions from TreePeople back in October. And the photo was taken in April. Now its a nice little leafy tree!
And here is a photo of the TreeGator that I came across on a recently planted street tree in Santa Monica.
And there is a photo of the instructions for how to use it!
Now I know that Linda at TreePeople expressed reservations about using the TreeGator, and they made a ton of sense. But, if you are planting your treelet in a difficult to access place, or if water source is far away, this is a good option.
Otherwise, follow her instructions. A nice 20 minute soak from a slow slow hose is the easiest way to water your tree. Or...failing that, 3 buckets full of water you slowly pour into the well you left around the trunk is a low cost, easy to do option. Just hard if you planted your tree on a slope as I did.
AND if that isn't enough tree info, here is a photo I took on a walk the other day. A wild tree growing on a hillside above the Pacific.
I take photo's of trees on every walk I take. I just think they are so remarkably beautiful. And....I think of them as benevolent dinosaurs. Creatures leftover from another age. But...these ancient guardians are here to protect life on earth. The least we can do is to plant new ones, and treasure the ones in our care.


Hello, everyone. Welcome to a new historical article!
Before we start, I have to introduce myself since I am new at TAP, and this is my first post. My name is David (davidblader in WoT) and I will be posting articles on combat vehicles from the World War II era. I will start with the "Romanian tanks (in detail)" series since I am Romanian, so I've studied about my country's vehicles more than about any other ones. I plan to post about vehicles from other countries too in the future. Also, I know that many of the vehicles I will make articles about have already been described on TAP, but in my articles, I will try going into detail as much as I can, instead of only mentioning the most important things (I won't cover vehicles which already have similar articles).
The TACAM R-2 (Tun Anticar pe Afet Mobil R-2) was one of the tank destroyers produced by the Kingdom of Romania during World War II. To describe it shortly, it was a combination of the Panzer 35(t)'s hull (called R-2 in Romanian service), the Soviet 76.2mm ZiS-3 gun and a 10-17mm thick cabin for protecting the crew. It was similar to the German Marder series.


text:
Q: Is there a nice recurrence relation for $n^n$ I know there is a nice equation for $n!$, but is there one for $n^n$? I was thinking you could get it with the fact $n^n=a^{n\log_an}$ but I can't seem to make the needed jump.
Edit: It was suggested by goblin to use the fact that $(n+1)^{n+1} = (n+1)(n+1)^n$ and expand with the binomial theorem. This gives $a_{n+1} = (n+1)\sum_{i=0}^n \binom n {n-i} n^i$
Which is still a little more complicated then I'd like. I'd love to have something of the form $a_{n+1}=a_nb^{f(n,b)}$ for every $b$

A: Using the $W$ Lambert function (the inverse of $x\mapsto xe^x$) we get:
$$a_n=n^n$$
$$\ln a_n=n\ln n=\ln n e^{\ln n}$$
$$W(\ln a_n)=\ln n$$
Therefore
$$a_{n+1}=[e^{W(\ln a_n)}+1]^{e^{W(\ln a_n)}+1}$$
On the other hand, from your equation
$$(n+1)^{n+1}=n^n\,b^{f(b,n)}$$
we get
$$f(b,n)=\log_b\frac{(n+1)^{n+1}}{n^n}=\log_b(n+1)+n\log_b\left(1+\frac{1}{n}\right)$$

Political responsibility for the agency lies with the Minister of State Security; as of 2014 this is David Mahlobo. The agency is headed by a Director-General; as of 2016 this is Arthur Fraser. In the 2010/11 national budget, the secret services received a total transfer of 3,052.2 million rand. For the 2015/16 national budget, the secret services will received a total transfer of 4,308.3 million rand.
The focus on state security is significant and is best understood in the context of the evolution of South African politics since 1961. During the Vorster Regime, state security was seen to be paramount by virtue of the fact that the state was the referent object simply because it represented an ethnic minority and was thus contested. The referent object is that which needs to be secured. This gave rise to the Bureau of State Security (BOSS), which came to an end after the Info Scandal involving the use of secret funds and covert capabilities to manipulate public opinion via the media. Emerging from this was the PW Botha regime, which saw the rise of the State Security Council as the premier decision-making organ. This was hawkish and favored the military. The emergence of paramilitary police units was a direct result of this. While this process was unfolding, the National Intelligence Service (NIS) was created but remained in the shadow under the leadership of Dr Niel Barnard. Central to the creation of the NIS was the burning question about what the referent object is and how it should be secured. Within the NIS the view was that the only way to secure the state was to create a legitimate government representative of the majority of the citizens. This discourse was known as "National Security" and the focus of security was the nation. The idea being that if the nation is secured, then a legitimate government would emerge so state security would become irrelevant as a concept. When the FW de Klerk Regime took over, it inherited a security force in crisis arising from the actions of the paramilitary police. This created space for the National Security discourse to take its rightful place in underpinning the transition to democracy by creating the climate for negotiations to end the Armed Struggle. This saw the concept of "national security" dominate the intelligence community, at least during the transition to democracy and the decade thereafter. It was only when the state started to perceive that it was under threat, that the old thinking about "state security" again emerged. This drove the creation of the SSA (with the security of the state as its primary objective) out of the remnants of what had evolved from the NIS (with the security of the nation as its primary objective.

The cost of owning a house is so much more than your monthly mortgage payment. Improvements and repairs to your home can be costly and could take up a large amount of your budget yet they are vital to maintain your home and possibly increase the value.
Dan DiClerico, a HomeAdvisor expert, states the average homeowner spends close to $7,000 on home improvements throughout the year. As a result, he highly encourages homeowners keep a rainy day fund in their household budget….ideally 2 to 5 percent of the value of the home.
The experts at Realtor.com have identified the 5 most expensive repairs that homeowners should be aware of which I have summarized for you below.
Foundation restoration/foundation wall repair – the best way to avoid a costly repair to a damaged foundation is to keep water away from the foundation walls. "Water is the biggest enemy of foundation walls, causing cracks, buckling, and other serious structural issues," DiClerico says. "Maintain gutters, downspouts, and leader pipes so that they channel water away from the house." Additionally, he says it's important to ensure the ground around the foundation is properly graded so it slopes away from the house. Also, older homes, repairs may be inevitable.
Replacing a furnace or central AC system – your heating and cooling system works hard to keep your home at a comfortable temperature. It can be agonizing when it gives out and costly to replace. "Neglect is one of the main killers of heating and cooling equipment, and for a system to reach its full life expectancy — usually up around 15 years — it needs to be properly maintained," DiClerico says. Best advice is to have the cooling system serviced before summer and the heating equipment serviced before winter.
Repairing water damaged ceiling and walls - Some of the most common causes of water leaks are burst water pipes and leaky roofs. Homeowners should routinely inspect and maintain appliance hoses and water pipes to guard against cracks and leaks, and to immediately replace damaged hoses and pipes.
Replacing the lawn – having to replace a lawn can be very pricey. The biggest threats to your lawn and soil are poor conditions and pests. And if you have to rip out your entire lawn and replace it, it will be expensive. Having your soil tested can help avoid a costly replacement. Inexpensive test kits are sold at local hardware and home center stores.
Removing a tree- if it's a huge tree with a very deep root system, it can be quite costly to remove. Plus removing a stump will add more expense to your budget. The key to costly tree removal is to periodically monitor your trees and limbs. An arborist can assist you with determining which trees are diseased or susceptible to disease and help you avoid costly removals.
