Karl Barth's 1922 ''The Epistle to the Romans'' is without doubt one of the most renowned, infamous, and influential works in twentieth-century theology and religious study. it's also a famously and notoriously tough and enigmatic paintings, specially as its historic context turns into a growing number of overseas. during this publication, Kenneth Oakes presents ancient historical past to the writing of ''The Epistle to the Romans'', an advent and research of its major issues and phrases, a working observation at the textual content itself, and proposals for additional readings from Barth on the various concerns it increases.

Shika Arcades
Hardware Review: Shika Arcades SOZU.S1 Isn't Just The Ultimate SNES Stick, It's A Work Of Art
Bamboo-zled
by Damien McFerran Wed 14th Mar 2018
The humble video game controller is one of the most important elements of interactive entertainment; it is your interface to an immersive virtual world and any shortcomings it may have (Kinect, we're looking at you) impact massively on your overall enjoyment. It's equally true, however, that not all controllers are created equal, and as gaming as matured we've seen a proliferation of different interface options to cater for the growing number of genres on offer.
Despite this evolution, one controller type has remained constant almost since the inception of the industry: the arcade stick. Long before D-Pads and fancy analogue wands became commonplace, gamers grew up with this iconic coin-op control system, comprising of a ball-topped stick and big, friendly buttons – both elements built to withstand the incredible amounts of punishment they would receive at the hands of rabid arcade patrons. While the industry has adopted analogue control as standard today – the Switch doesn't even come with a traditional digital pad – old-school arcade sticks still exist, with demand partly fuelled by the resurgence of the one-on-one fighting game. It's not uncommon to see truly committed players spend well over £100 on the very best arcade stick option from companies like Hori, but even that level of dedication pales in comparison to the courage (and deep pockets) required to invest in the first product from UK-based start-up Shika Arcades.
Shika founder Ed Taylor gave himself one mission: to create the best arcade stick controller for the Super Nintendo. The result is the SOZU.S1, named after a bamboo "scaredeer" device used in Japan. It has taken him 18 months to realise this vision, and we've been lucky enough to get access to one of these incredible controllers for review.
Right from the moment you open the packaging, the SOZU.S1 is unique. Shika Arcades ship each one in its own wooden box with a slide-off lid, so it can be stored away and protected when it's not in use. Included with each unit is a certificate of authenticity, a set of card instructions and a rather fetching limited edition T-Shirt showcasing an exploded engineering drawing of the SOZU.S1 itself. There's also a brass token which matches the exact size of a 100 Yen coin – the currency of choice for old-school Japanese arcade-goers. Our unit also shipped with a drinks coaster made of slate, emblazoned with the Shika Arcades logo – the company clearly likes giving you cool free items when you buy one of its products.
Once you've extracted the controller from its gorgeous packaging and screwed the ball onto the top of the stick (it's detached when in transit) you get some time to appreciate just how incredibly well-build this thing is. The model you see here is the Duotone edition, but a 'Natural' finish version is planned for the next production batch. Precision machined and hand-finished from architectural-grade bamboo, the SOZU.S1 boasts an oiled hard-wax coating which is resistant to moisture (and who doesn't get a little sweaty when playing Street Fighter II, right?). Perhaps more importantly, it feels robust and solid without being too heavy or awkward to use, even when it's resting on your knees. The internals are all Sanwa-made parts – a name which will be familiar to anyone who is a keen follower of arcade gaming. The Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT ball-top stick is present alongside Sanwa OBS-30B/24B buttons, selected for their reliable OMRON pin plunger microswitches. Practically every single input on the SOZU.S1 emits a reassuring click when used, something which will make veteran arcade players feel particularly nostalgic.
In terms of interesting extras, the SOZU.S1 has an adjustable turbo dial – perfect for shooters which lack an auto-fire option – and three switches above the buttons. These high-quality switches allow you to instantly re-map the configuration for that column of buttons; the included instructions do a good job of explaining this process. Elsewhere, there's an inlaid token (like the one which comes in the box) and the lead is covered in thick, wear-resistant red braiding to ensure longevity. Even the plug which connects to the SNES itself is protected by a '1st Edition' end support to prevent wear and tear on the joint.
In action, the SOZU.S1 is a dream to use. Clicky controls may be an acquired taste for some, but there's something joyfully tactile about using microswitched sticks and buttons when compared to the comparatively dull and lifeless contact-based inputs on other pads. On a modern system an arcade stick like this would be limited in scope as it lacks analogue control, but on the SNES – which is from the days of digital control – it's not an issue; we tested every possible genre – from shooters to platformers to fighting games – and the SOZU.S1 performed admirably. Our only complaint is that the plug feels a little bit tight when inserted into the SNES' controller port; it sometimes feels like you're going to break it if you force it too much. It's also a shame that the SOZU.S1 is only compatible with the SNES – it would have been welcome to have multiple controller plugs included so it could be used on systems like the Neo Geo, Mega Drive and PC Engine; this would have obviously increased the overall cost, however.
The other sticking point is the price. At £395 / $550 (the original price was £450 / $630, but Shika Arcades was able to secure more favourable terms with its suppliers and reduced the cost, refunding anyone who had purchased a stick up to that point the difference) the SOZU.S1 isn't an impulse purchase, and there are much cheaper alternatives available on the secondary market should you only be after the 'arcade' experience on your SNES. However, if money is no object and you want the best possible control option for your beloved 16-bit console, then the SOZU.S1 is essential. It's so much more than just a controller; it's a work of art into which Shika Arcades has poured 18 months of love, care and attention. It won't be within every SNES owner's price range, but if you can afford it, it's well worth considering.

This is truly beautiful!
Roll on LABO SWITCH CONTROLLERS! ( so we can all customise some lovely controllers - not necessarily play Cardboard Pro controllers lol)
This is fine and I don't need it...
roadrunner343
Apart from the absurd price, this really is an incredible piece. It seemed odd to be designed specifically for the SNES - I know there were some great fighting games, but it's not like Neo Geo where the system was known pretty much solely for its fighting games. If there were adapters/interchangeable cables that allowed something like this to be used with multiple consoles, I would almost consider it. Though, it would need a 4 (or 7) button layout to work for Neo Geo.
RetroGamerAndrew
That price tho
@Shiryu Superb gif deployment.
Bizarre that this wouldn't come with a whole suite of cables for connecting to various devices.
Ahlvin23
Looks great but i dont have the money.
Kanbei
@Pod Yes it seems like if they included a USB cable they would sell a lot more.
J_C
@Kanbei Not saying Pod doesn't have a point, but that made me laugh
bluesdance
Oh no, the latest SFC firmware update has disabled it!
Lone_Beagle
@bluesdance God, I miss the pre-internet days. Remember when you used to really own the electronics gear you bought?
@Pod or, just bluetooth? I could see, a genuine cable hook up for the SFC/SNES, since the die-hards could claim ultimate fidelity, but also bluetooth so we could connect it to just about anything modern.
Sakura7
So want. So not gonna be able to get. (And they missed a trick not making it for Switch which is basically a Neo Geo arcade).
JayJ
Looks great but I don't know why they couldn't make one for the Switch
$550? I don't care how nice it is, no joystick is worth half a grand. That being said, it appears very nice and well built, but the price is outrageous.
They need to make it compatible with other devices. Why stick to the SNES?
Beautiful piece but way too limited in use considering the price. It's hard to justify a purchase.
@Lone_Beagle Issue with blue tooth is that the device would then need to be self-powered as well. Not that that's an absolute deal breaker, mind you, but if would need to contain both a bluetooth radio and lithium batteries - further adding to cost and heft. Though, clearly they aren't against absurdly high prices, so maybe they should have just included a battery + bluetooth.
Audiobrainiac
Maybe I'm alone here, but I pumped quarters into many machines growing up and never felt like I just HAD to have an arcade stick at the house (aside from pondering building my own Switch arcade cabinet, of course). I get the nostalgic aspect of it. Are there advantages to using it for certain games? Or is it just for authenticity's sake? Just curious.
Old-Red
Why didn't they include a usb connector? If I could use this with switch, pc and ps3 I'd definitely be tempted, but even as a collector of snes games I would never consider this at that price. Still, it's a really beautiful piece of kit.
Synthatron_Prime
It really needs to be compatible with more retro systems as the article stated. Not enough good arcade style games on SNES to justify a stick of this cost. Beautiful though!
@Agent721 Yeah you can usually get a really nice hand built arcade stick off someone on ebay for at least half that price.
Not even close to enough arcade games on SNES to justify ever purchasing this, for me. Even if I had the money to burn!
samuelvictor
Yeah, the price would be affordable for me IF I could use it on Megadrive/SMS, Neo Geo, NES, Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1/2 and PC/USB.
Make a version with USB and convertors for all the above and I would put down some cash. Bluetooth would be the icing on the cake.
There aren't enough essential SNES arcade experiences to justify this price for an exclusive device... (sure, many bought the SNES to play SF2 for example, but nowadays there are a million ways to play a better version of that game).
RedMageLanakyn
I'd say the Kinect at the very least led a much better life than the Virtual Boy in terms of which one had the most shortcomings. At least the Kinect is being used in different applications, whereas the Virtual Boy sits in a pile of shame.
Heavyarms55
A work of art is right, and it sure looks nice, but is clearly only for the most wealthy, die-hard enthusiasts! As someone who did not have an arcade in town and grew up with Game Boy, N64 and later PS1 and Gamecube/GBA I have never quite understood the appeal of this style of control over a more traditional controller.
Though I wont lie, if I were a wealthy man building my ultimate retro game room, I would like to have one of these. But alas, I am an average Joe and could never justify such a purchase.
I'm not sure I would consider any of the extra stuff that comes with a $550 controller as "freebies" haha. Looks amazing though
TheMudHutDweller
Awesome bit of kit! I would have preferred rocker switches over toggles, though. Toggles are a bad look when it comes to gaming peripherals, and should only be used in super high-end retro style hi-fi gear, IMHO.
@RedMageLanakyn One is an interface, the other is a console. I was talking specifically about interfaces (the VB's controls were actually pretty decent - dual D-pads!)
@Damo Honestly I thought about that, and remembered the VB controller wasn't very good either! I'm still kinda iffy calling VB an actual console, i like to think of it more as a failed experiment
Deanster101
I don't even like arcade sticks and I want one....

Danny bids to hit the back of the net at Wycombe game
Charity challenge at final home game of season
Danny Wiggins is gearing up for a unique challenge at our final home match of the season – and he's already halfway to reaching his charity target!
Danny, who is an adult with learning disabilities, will take on Paul Strank and Ivor Heller at the Wycombe game. All three will run from the halfway line with a ball each and the winner will be the one who scores against Colin Dipple, who will be guarding his goal at the Chemflow End in front of thousands of Dons fans.
Funds raised from the challenge will be donated to a fantastic local charity – The Paul Strank Charitable Trust. Danny, who attends Leyton Road Centre (formerly known as High Path), is aiming to raise £1,000 for charity and you can make a donation by visiting his JustGiving page. Thanks to generous donations, Danny has already raised half of that amount.
Danny, who is a regular at AFC Wimbledon home matches, can't wait to get out on the pitch in front of our fans – and he apparently already has his opponents running scared!

Touring is a big part of my life. I'm away from the ones I love – to do what I love: making music – in small and big venues, in pubs and on open air stages, in front of 1000 or 10 people – it always matters where I am and who you are and I enjoy it every time. These places and the connected moments all have something in common: we meet each other – you as listener with your expectations, your emotions, your excitement or your disappointment and myself as musician with my songs and thoughts.
Borne from these encounters are beautiful and emotional situations and making them listenable and come alive often is a challenge.
We took the challenge. All of us. You and me.
Together with my friends, musical partners and engineers we recorded most of the evenings on my most recent tour. We went through the recordings and decided to take the final show of the tour at the Berlin venue 'Jaegerklause' to release it as an album.
'Unterwegs' (On The Road) is a document, something that will stay – its songs and stories accompany me and helped shaping my own self – what I am, what I became and what I will be.
The songs are made to feel and celebrate the joy of life.


After working on my Nagios deployment for months I've recently realized that my timezone was incorrect in the notifications that I was receiving. After changing the default timezone on the Nagios XI server (CentOS 6) the notifications were still wrong. This seems like a small problem, but took me quite a bit of time to figure out why.
After googling every possible format I can say "Email time is wrong is Nagios XI" and finding nothing, I started to poke around more and more in Nagios web interface. That's when I ran across the "Nagios XI Installation Profile" – which is hidden under "System Profile" on the Admin page, upon looking at that it became very apparent what was wrong.
Duh… I'm not in Eurpoe/London. Actually, my System Time is correct!
Once again I took to Google and found this information from Nagios, which I've looked at 100 times. I found this information in the support.
Now, looking back at the "Nagios XI Installation Profile" I can see the updated time.
Hopefully this can be of some help to anyone out there having the same problem I was!
I'm surprised nagios doesn't use the system time instead of PHP.

Q: best way to do Jasper report styling I am new to Jasper reporting. My project has requirements for generating complex reports. . And the reports are very rich in terms of UX. I want to know the best way to do styling, layouts and also best practices. I just started looking into Jasper today.
Also I found very few tutorials like tutorialpoint and jasperassistant. Is there any best one point tutorial for Jasper(not only free tutorials)?
Also is it best to integrate Jasper with Spring?

July 5 at 7pm
Directed by Gabriel Noble (Q&A to follow)
At age 9, Priscilla, an adorable yet precocious little girl, tells her single-father, Jesse,: "I am going to become a rapper and fulfill your dreams of succeeding in the music business." Moved by Priscilla's passion and impressed with her natural talent and undeniable charisma, he begins to teach her all he knows about rapping. In the four years that follow there is no question that rapping has brought Priscilla closer to her estranged father, and that her success has made him proud.
Before our eyes, this father-daughter duo go from a one-bedroom shelter in Harlem to a 4 bedroom apartment, from food stamps to shopping sprees, from rapping on street corners to sold out night clubs, and from sneaking under train turnstiles without the $2 fare to spare to being driven around in tinted SUV's. All they know is that the ride has just begun.

Global Manufacturing Capabilities
A promising future for pharmaceutical innovation at CPhI Worldwide 2021
By: DSM Pharma Solutions Editors
The global pharmaceutical industry gathered in force at CPhI Worldwide 2021, in Milan, to celebrate the huge strides made in the pharma space over the last year and look to future opportunities for innovation.
DSM's Pharma team of experts was there to present our purpose-led offering, including how our involvement in early-stage drug development can play a critical role in expanding treatment options.
Here, we share our key takeaways from the event, including the importance of early collaboration across the supply chain and opportunities to raise awareness of the therapeutic potential of cannabidiol for global patient health.
Back together again at CPhI Worldwide 2021
The pharmaceutical industry was reunited again at this year's CPhI Worldwide after one of the most demanding – and successful - periods that the industry has ever seen. Hosted in hybrid format – in-person in Milan between 9-11 November, and with the ability to join online from anywhere in the world - the event represented the evolution in the way the global supply chain now operates.
The DSM Pharma team was thrilled to be exhibiting at the event, giving us the opportunity to welcome customers in-person and share our evolved purpose-led offering, including how our involvement in early-stage drug development can play a critical role in expanding treatment options. We've shared our top three learnings from the event and why we believe the big moment for innovation and growth in pharma has arrived.
A promising future for pharma
The show floor was filled with a sense of positivity and excitement about the future of pharma as many exhibitors met with customers and stakeholders face-to-face for the first time in months. Even in the face of the challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, the industry has firmly adopted a growth mindset and a determination to support global patient health through the delivery of treatments that address unmet needs, improve quality of life and contribute to beneficial patient outcomes.
Collaboration comes earlier
Building on this positive outlook was a recognition of the power of partnerships. In fact, the CPhI Annual Report, which surveys more than 370 industry executives, highlighted that respondents are beginning conversations with their supply partners earlier in the development process. At DSM, we recognise that developing therapies that safely and efficiently help to improve people's lives takes more than active pharmaceutical ingredients. It takes a partner.
That's why our team of experts bring the scientific insight and innovation to co-develop new over-the-counter products and prescription medicines in this ever-changing and competitive marketplace. We help both, brand and generic manufacturers, realize market success by enabling agile drug development, ensuring seamless product entry and optimizing life-cycle management efforts. It was great to be at the show to deliver this message in person and demonstrate how, through partnership, we can help our customers achieve long term growth.
Cannabidiol in the spotlight
The cannabidiol-based drug market is growing rapidly and we were proud to be at CPhI with our strategic partners Brains Bioceutical - a pioneer in the cannabidiol API market - to speak to customers about how we can help them to realize the full therapeutic potential of cannabidiol actives – mostly cannabidiol – in a wide variety of health areas that benefit global patient health. While the interest is cannabidiol at the show was high, it's clear that education around the science-backed benefits is key to unlocking the full potential of cannabidiol APIs.

"I fancy Chahal quite a lot," Klaasen said after the match. "When I was in amateur cricket, there were a couple of quality leggies in that time when I started my career. I faced Shaun von Berg at the Titans a lot as well. We always made a joke that I need to finish the other legspinner's career so he can go up, sometimes it works. Tonight it worked perfectly. I just tried to cash in as much as possible.
"It wasn't planned. But the way the seamers bowled, the cutters, they've got very, very good skills as I have said before, I just fancied my chances more against the leggie, had more options against him, so when I got the first two boundaries, I thought this is the over 13th over I got to target. Maybe if I can get 20-odd in this over," he added.
The 'keeper-batsman also heaped praise on JP Duminy, the captain, for guiding him through the initial phase. The veteran batsman, who was going through a bad patch, evidenced by the fact that he had compiled just 102 runs in his previous six internationals, amassed a crucial hand of 64 not out. Duminy was the key factor to my whole innings. Second over or the first over I faced, he told me this over needs to go for 10. He told me to just play my normal game and take the bowlers on. Luckily today it worked out," he felt.


I suggest coffee (or whatever else) that will remove you both from the office space itself. Sometimes just being away from the office, even for 15 mins, allows people to speak easier. And a physical break from a stressful environment is always nice.
This is probably the best course of action. I will try that when I have the opportunity. Thanks!
This is probably the best course of action. I will try that when I have the opportunity.
Very broadly, your friend needs to realise that if it's important enough to complain about, it's important enough to take action about - and that can very much be taken in either direction: it's entirely up to the person in question whether they do something about the situation, or decide that actually it wasn't worth complaining after all. From what you say, I'd guess this is a situation where the former is the wiser decision.
Obviously it needs to be dressed up in much gentler language, but "if you don't like it, leave" is often very good advice. With only the info you presented to go on, it sounds like the working environment has gone seriously downhill in recent years. While it's never appropriate to lash out at others, I can very much empathise with their cynicism if they feel trapped in that situation.
Sure, it's unlikely that they can just up and leave tomorrow without significant consequences, but making consistent, daily steps towards leaving this situation and finding a more positive one will not only pay dividends in the long run, it'll provide hope and a sense of purpose in the short run.
Help them organize your office's workers and start a union.
I feel like they are hurting, but I don't know how to help.
Seriously. That's the malaise of disillusionment with capitalism if I've ever heard it.
Saying things like "our job doesn't matter", "nobody cares", and "you should stop trying to improve things".
That's the malaise of disillusionment with capitalism if I've ever heard it.


Vogue Germany's That Time For Today editorial displays model Kate Upton amid an equestrian backdrop. Uptown mingled with horses and mail models in the countryside, delivering yet another one of her memorable fashion productions.
Uptown was photographed by Bruce Weber for That Time For Today. He incorporated an assortment of finishes, inclusive of black and white, color and sepia, delivering a range of images to readers of Vogue Germany's January 2013 issue.
Stylist Anne Christensen mixed modern and classic equestrian pieces. This theme came to the fore via top hats, ties, oxford shirts and riding boots that were surprisingly paired with white feathered dresses, revealing lingerie and swim suits, items that one would not commonly associate with the apparel of horseback riders.

Q: Firefox floated elements require DOM poke I have two elements that are floated left.  One is the first child of the body, and the other is the first child of a container that is the second child of the body.
...

...

The container has a fixed width and is centred using 'margin: 0 auto;'.  The intention was to allow the container child to stay left but accommodate the body child when the window is small.
The fiddle is here:
http://jsfiddle.net/mrSav/7/
This solution works fine in Chrome; you'll notice that the container child happily moves over for the body child when you make the window smaller.
However in Firefox when you make the window smaller the container child overlaps the body child.
For both children I added a hover state which effectively 'pokes the DOM' and forces Firefox to re-flow the page.  When you hover the mouse over the children the page corrects itself and the children snap into the 'correct' position.
Is this a bug?  Is there a work-around?

A: UPDATE - Container does flow under first child of body
Still using media-queries, but changing a few things to allow absolute positioning of the container child relative to the window instead of parent: DEMO
Remove position: relative from container. Separate the two child divs css  and change a few styles on the container child like this:
.child {
    width: 100px;
    height: 200px;
    background-color: white;
    border: 2px dashed black;
    margin: 0px;
}

body > .child {
    float: left;
    z-index: 1;
}

.container > .child {
    position: absolute; //relative to window since parent has no position
    left: 100px;
}

Then use media-query above 700px to change position to relative and left to auto:
@media screen and (min-width: 700px) {
    .container > .child {
        position: relative; //override absolute position
        left: auto; //override left: 100px
    }
}

ORIGINAL - Container doesn't flow under first child of body.
I have no idea what is causing this (I would guess it's the one floated item being taken out of the flow treated differently by Firefox), but here's a work around using media-queries: DEMO
With fixed widths, you can do something like this:
.container { //use margin-left: 100px until the total width of the window is 700px (500px + 100px + 100px = container width + 100px on either side )
    margin: 0 0 0 100px;
}

@media screen and (min-width: 700px) { //700px to account for 100px of left div (.container is centered at this size)
    .container {
        margin: 0 auto;
        float: none;
    }
}

I would also add * {box-sizing: border-box;} (with appropriate prefixes, -moz-, -webkit-) to account for any borders/padding.


Viewers of Wednesday's World Series game were alarmed to see what they thought was a sign for the Ku Klux Klan displayed in the stands.
anybody else catch that KKK sign at the World Series game?
In fact, KKK has a completely different meaning for baseball fans.
In this easily offended and sensitive society, it seems baseball fans even forgot their own lingo during the the Cubs-Indians Game 7.
Umm, did anyone else see the KKK sign at the World Series? Wtf.
Many Twitter users were on hand to help educate the clueless viewers.
@thomassfl That's the number of strikeouts by the pitcher in the game. Lmao have you ever watched a baseball game in your life?
@GrindIt2UFindIt why you watchin baseball bro if you dont even get it?
@McMahonFirebird K = strikeout. Have you ever watched a baseball game in your life? And did you see any people w/ white hoods in the crowd?
@LerChristopher Maybe you should watch more baseball than just game 7 of the World Series.
@Imani_zamasing jesus christ in baseball a K is a strike out. they hang a K every strikeout. stop being offended by EVERYTHING.


Ahhhh fresh summer produce. As someone who loves to cook according to what's in season, I must admit to being slightly twitterpated by this time of year. Don't get me wrong. I adore the spinach and strawberries of springtime and the pumpkins and peppers of autumn. But, nothing warms my heart like summer's abundance of fresh squash, tomatoes, eggplant, berries, peaches, and melons. True bliss.
Predictably, this season's crops also produce a common theme among backyard gardeners: What in the world am I supposed to do with of all this zucchini?! Sauteed, roasted, baked into bread, fried as fritters - imaginations run wild trying to come up with ways to utilize this vegetable that is so often known for its bountiful harvest. Tragically, I don't have this problem. Living in a city apartment and working 60-80 hours a week has a way of stunting any potential of a green thumb during this chapter of my life. But, thanks to the generosity of my dear friend, Mary Beth, who passed along some of her own garden's gems (including the best tomato ever!), I too was left with that age-old burning question: What am I going to do with this enormous zucchini?! And this, my friends, was the perfect answer.
Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise. Scrape out the seeds and soft center flesh, leaving hollow shells. Set aside.
Heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onions and 1/3 tsp salt and cook until softened and lightly browned, 12-15 minutes. Stir in the garlic and 1/2 tsp thyme and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Divide the onion mixture between the zucchini shells and spread into an even layer, covering the bottom of each shell.
Beginning at one end of the zucchini, alternatively shingle the sliced yellow squash and tomatoes into a single layer in a single row on top of the onions. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 tbsp oil and 1/2 tsp thyme and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Place the shells in a 9x13 inch baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake until the vegetables are tender, about 30-35 minutes. Remove the foil, sprinkle the cheese over the top, and continue to bake until the cheese is bubbling and lightly browned on top, 20-30 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Over the years we have tried many foods and settled on those that we thought were best for our puppies and dogs. Then came along the great pet food recall. This recall was very large and affected many brands of food causing a lot of breeders to re-evaluate what we were feeding our dogs and puppies. Luckily Classical Poodles along with other breeders were unaffected by the recall. Even though we were unaffected, I still did some research on exactly what caused the recall then looked for manufactures who were unaffected by the recall.
We have always and still do used multiple foods during the puppies development because we noticed that they get tired of eating the same food everyday. We even feed our dogs two or three different foods so they do not get bored with their food. This is practical for us but not so practical for clients with a dog or two. So if you can only feed one food then we recommend.

Here's Your First Look at the Futuristic Apartments That Have Indoor "Mega-Trees"
Production will be completed next year.
/ Future Society/ Architecture/ Sustainable City/ Urban Engineering
Image by Vincent Callebaut Architecture
An apartment, retail, and office complex with an abundance of greenery is going up in Cairo, Egypt.
Designed by Vincent Callebaut Architectures, the complex will feature nine cylindrical structures covered in plants, which the designers call "mega-trees."
Construction began in 2014 and will be complete by 2019, Callebaut told Business Insider.
Check out what the futuristic complex, dubbed The Gate, will look like
The Gate, a 4.8-million-square-foot complex, is being built in Cairo's Heliopolis district.
Vincent Callebaut Architecture
The project was commissioned by local developer Abraj Misr.
Eight buildings will intertwine to form the complex. The top floors will be connected by pedestrian bridges, and offer playgrounds and small gardens growing fruit and vegetables.
There will also be an infinity swimming pool.
The Gate will include three floors of office space ...
... a three-story shopping mall with four underground levels for parking ...
... and 1,000 "smart" apartments. Each residence will come equipped with motion sensors that adjust temperature and lighting when residents are home.
The interior will feature nine "mega-trees": cylindrical living walls that will help provide natural ventilation and consume carbon dioxide. The buildings will be partially powered by solar and wind.
Callebaut, a Belgian architect, is known for his greenery-filled structures. He sees The Gate as a small step toward a more sustainable future.
Callebaut's other projects include a masterplan to revamp an industrial zone in Brussels, Belgium by adding luxury housing, restaurants, shops, office space, and greenhouses. His firm submitted the plan to the local government for review in February.
They're also working on a manta ray-shaped ferry terminal in Seoul, Korea. The designs for that structure, which were unveiled in June, also call for it to be covered in plants.
"The main objective behind this project is to raise awareness of green sustainable architecture to fight against global warming to maintain an eco-friendly Earth for our next generation," Callebaut said.

When it was initially written in 1987, few could have predicted that The Leadership Challenge would become one of the best-selling leadership books of all time. Now, faced with the new challenges of our unpredictable global business environment, Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner--two of the country's premier leadership experts--have completely revised and updated their classic book. Building on the knowledge base of their previous books, the third edition of The Leadership Challenge is grounded in extensive research and based on interviews with all kinds of leaders at all levels in public and private organizations from around the world. In this edition, the authors emphasize that the fundamentals of leadership are the same today as they were in the 1980s, and as they've probably been for centuries. In that sense, nothing's new. Leadership is not a fad. While the content of leadership has not changed, the context has-and in some cases, changed dramatically.
Jim Kouzes is Chairman Emeritus of the Tom Peters Company and an Executive Fellow at the Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship at the Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University. Barry Posner is Dean of the Leavey School of Business and Professor of Leadership at Santa Clara University.
Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner are authors of the award-winning and best-selling book, The Leadership Challenge, as well as the widely used Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI). They have also written such works as Credibility, Encouraging the Heart, and The Leadership Challenge Planner. The launch of LPI Online, combined with their other publications, truly make them the most trusted source on becoming a better leader.
Kouzes gives workshops in executive development and managing growth companies; Posner conducts seminars in communication, group dynamics, etc. Their excellent book on leadership for business executives covers identifying and developing leadership qualities, building commitment into action, and other important topics. In addition to discussing the theoretical foundations of leadership, the authors use many examples from work situations to demonstrate application. In a field in which many books are available, this one is readable, interesting, and up-to-date. Highly recommended for collections serving business executives and students. Grace Klinefelter, Ft.

The streaming torrent app. For Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Download specific installer files from the GitHub releases page.
Try the (unstable) development version by cloning the Git repository. See the "How to Contribute" instructions.
Restart the app automatically every time code changes. Useful during development.
The integration tests use Spectron and Tape. They click through the app, taking screenshots and comparing each one to a reference. Why screenshots?
Even diffing the whole HTML is not as thorough as screenshot diffing. For example, it wouldn't catch an bug where hitting ESC from a video doesn't correctly restore window size.
Small UI changes will break a few tests, but the fix is as easy as deleting the offending screenshots and running the tests, which will recreate them with the new look.
For MacOS, you'll need a Retina screen for the integration tests to pass. Your screen should have the same resolution as a 2016 12" Macbook.
For Windows, you'll need Windows 10 with a 1366x768 screen.
When running integration tests, keep the mouse on the edge of the screen and don't touch the mouse or keyboard while the tests are running.
Builds app binaries for Mac, Linux, and Windows.
Where [platform] is darwin, linux, win32, or all (default).
--package=[type] - Package single output type.
Note: Even with the --package option, the auto-update files (.nupkg for Windows, -darwin.zip for Mac) will always be produced.
The Windows app can be packaged from any platform.
Note: Windows code signing only works from Windows, for now.
The Mac app can only be packaged from macOS.
The Linux app can be packaged from any platform.
WebTorrent Desktop collects some basic usage stats to help us make the app better. For example, we track how well the play button works. How often does it succeed? Time out? Show a missing codec error?
The app never sends any personally identifying information, nor does it track which torrents you add.

USSELL, GEORGE, M. D., of Boston, Mass., a native of Lincoln, Mass., was born September 23d, 1795. He is of English descent, and only two generations removed from the emigration of his ancestors to America. His grandfather, James Russell, and his brother Charles, came together from England, and settled in Charlestown as merchants. They were younger sons of the (then) Duke of Bedford. His father, Dr. Richard Russell, was born in Charlestown about the year 1752, settled professionally in Lincoln, and was accidentally drowned there at the age of forty five years, while our subject was a very young child. His mother was Elizabeth Brown, the daughter of Nathan Brown, a successful and highly respected farmer in Lincoln.
Dr. Russell received his early education in the common schools. He was afterwards for a long time under the private instructions of Rev. Charles Stearns, D. D., a celebrated teacher and theologian, with whom he fitted for college. He graduated Doctor of Medicine at Harvard University in August, 1820. In April of the following year he settled in Lincoln, the place of his birth, where he remained in medical practice seventeen years. From thence he removed to Waltham, where he practiced eight years, and from thence to Boston, where he now resides in active pursuit of his profession. In the year 1826, he was married to Hannah Green Cole, daughter of Abraham Cole.
While residing in Lincoln Dr. Russell held every office in the gift of his townsmen up to that of Representative in the General Court of the Commonwealth. He was for a time Assistant Surgeon in the United States Army, and also for years a surgeon in the Massachusetts State Militia. He has been for many years a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and has filled the office of Steward in that denomination -an office designed to look after the local interests of the denomination. He is a member of several societies not strictly literary or scientific, of the Boston Society of Natural History, and of the Massachusetts Homœopathic Medical Society, of which he was the fourth President. He commenced the study of homœopathy in 1839, and at once espoused its modes of practice, in which he has continued ever since.
These last mentioned facts have recently served to raise him to great distinction, both publicly and in the Massachusetts Medical Society, of which he had been an acceptable member for forty-eight years. He is one of the eight subjects of the late persecution by the allopaths, having been expelled the above society along with the rest.
In his extensive business, as in all his public relations, and by his friends, he is known as a Christian gentleman and worthy physician.

Xiaomi 12 Camera Leaked Alledgely- Here is what we got to know?


Keeping multiple calendars can be a pain in the behind. You have one on your phone, one on your computer and one on Google, it would nice to merge them, but that's not always easy. Luckily Google has a tool named Google Calendar Sync that can help you with this problem if youa re a user of Microsoft Outlook.
Once you install the download, you enter your account information and then choose if you want to sync Outlook to Google, Google to Outlook, or have them sync to each other. You can also set how often you want it to perform the sync, but that is totally up to you depending on how much you work with your schedule.
The major drawback to this for me is that it only works with Outlook. I only use Outlook on my computer as a place to sync my iPod Touch to, and that is also the same place that most movile phones will sync contacts and calendar to, even if you don't use the program for email.
This is certainly a solution if the $99 a year for MobileMe wasn't appealing to you and yet you still wanted a way to sync up your calendars. With it being bi-directional, it also makes a nice backup if anything should happen to your mobile device or your computer, and all for free!

The Future of Kenya's Democracy Is Hanging in the Balance – The Atlantic
As the cornerstone of East African democracy, Kenya is an important economic and political force in the region and a critical U.S. ally in the fight against terrorism. But worrying signs, including a crackdown on press and civil society, police killings committed seemingly with impunity, and threats and attacks on election officials and judges, suggest that Kenya may be veering off its democratic path.

Q: IBus on Ubuntu 14.04 Japanese not working I am new to Ubuntu (14.04) and want to type Japanese text. I applied language support "Japanese" and it shows up in the language icon at the page top menue. I installed IBus Input Pad, also Mozc. Both show up at the left hand Starter and the programs can be opened, but the field "apply" is not highlighted. Problem being: the input is simply not working at all. What else do I have to do?

A: I don't know how you get them installed. I first installed mocz from software center and I didn't work. But the following command works. Press Ctrl + Alt + T to start the terminal, then right click on anywhere in the terminal to paste the command:
sudo apt-get install ibus-mozc mozc-server mozc-utils-gui

After everything is done in the terminal, log out once and try find mozc in Text Entry Settings.
Reference:
http://inokara.hateblo.jp/entry/2013/03/23/091307

A: I just ran into the same problem and this is a really goofy way to fix it but it worked.
Start terminal and type ibus-setup, which opens up the ibus-preferences. Go to the input method tab and you will be able to add either anthy or mozc from there. The fix is to REMOVE the default "English" from the list so all that remains is the IME you added in the previous step (either anthy or mozc), so the system is forced to use it.
For anthy, by default you can switch between inputting Japanese and inputting English by hitting Ctrl+J.

A: It took me some time to figure this out, but in the input options, you will find something like "English" and "Japanese" (in my case with my Japanese keyboard proper ID'ed during install).  However, installing Anthy or Mozc didn't do anything.
You have to go back to the input dialog and add "Japanese-Anthy" or "Japanese-Mozc".  Then toggle between them.
By the way, 'Super' button is the "Windows" button.
And if you are having trouble with keyboard layout, the reason is wrong "language" input.  For example, when I have "En" selected as input, the keyboard layout is an 'English keyboard layout"  In order to type English without any curveballs, I toggle to "Ja" input and get the Japanese layout.

A: What I had to do was install japanese language support using system settings->language support, use system-settings->text entry to add Japanese Anthy and use the Text Entry on the Language dropdown on the panel to select control+space which I am used to.
It took several hours to find the step of adding Japanese Anthy using the system-setings->text.  This step was very un-intuitive.  I finally found it here and recommend this site for getting anthy Japanese input working.
I expect that using apt-get to install mozc as recommended above and then adding it using system-settings->text entry would add it to the selections but haven't tried it.

Q: MySQL Select data from table with dates between in reverse of interval 7 days I have a MySQL requirement to select data from a table based on a start date and end date and group it by weekly also selecting the data in reverse order by date. Assume that, I have chosen the start date as 1st November and the end date as 04 December. Now, I would like to fetch the data as 04 December to 28 November, 27 November to 20 November, 19 November to 12 November and so on and sum the value count for that week.
Given an example table,

id
value
created_at

1
10
2021-10-11

2
13
2021-10-17

3
11
2021-10-25

4
8
2021-11-01

5
1
2021-11-10

6
4
2021-11-18

7
34
2021-11-25

8
17
2021-12-04

Now the result should be like 2021-12-04 to 2021-11-28 as one week, following the same in reverse order and summing the column value data for that week. I have tried in the query to add the interval of 7 days after the end date but it didn't work.
SELECT count(value) AS total, MIN(R.created_at)
FROM data_table AS D
WHERE D.created_at BETWEEN '2021-11-01' AND '2021-12-04'  - INTERVAL 7 DAY  ORDER BY D.created_at;

And it's also possible to have the last week may have lesser than 7 days.
Expected output:

end_interval
start_interval
total

2021-12-04
2021-11-27
17

2021-11-27
2021-11-20
34

2021-11-20
2021-11-13
4

2021-11-13
2021-11-06
1

2021-11-06
2021-10-30
8

2021-10-30
2021-10-25
11

Note that the last week is only 5 days depending upon the selected from and end dates.

A: One option to address this problem is to

*

*generate a calendar of all your intervals, beginning from last date till first date, with a split of your choice, using a recursive query

*joining back the calendar with the original table

*capping start_interval at your start_date value

*aggregating values for each interval

You can have three variables to be set, to customize your date intervals and position:
SET @start_date = DATE('2021-10-25');
SET @end_date = DATE('2021-12-04');
SET @interval_days = 7;

Then use the following query, as already described:
WITH RECURSIVE cte AS (
    SELECT @end_date AS end_interval,
           DATE_SUB(@end_date, INTERVAL @interval_days DAY) AS start_interval
    UNION ALL
    SELECT start_interval AS end_interval,
           GREATEST(DATE(@start_date), DATE_SUB(start_interval, INTERVAL @interval_days DAY)) AS start_interval
    FROM cte
    WHERE start_interval > @start_date
)
SELECT end_interval, start_interval, SUM(_value) AS total
FROM      cte
LEFT JOIN tab
       ON tab.created_at BETWEEN start_interval AND end_interval
GROUP BY end_interval, start_interval
