City Lights Indian movie
CityLightsIs a 2014 Indian drama film directed by Hansal Mehta starring Rajkummar Rao and Patralekha in the lead roles. It is a remake of the BAFTA nominated British film (2013). The film was presented by Fox Star Studios in association with Mahesh Bhatt and Mukesh Bhatt.
The story is about a poor farmer from Rajasthan coming to Mumbai in search of livelihood. The film released on 30 May 2014, and won rave reviews from most critics. In spite of releasing in just 350 screens, CityLights became a success due to its low cost of production and consistent collections at the box office.
Deepak Singh's life as an ex-Army driver who owns a garment store is tangled in the midst of poverty, hope and despair. Deepak's family consists of his ever-supporting wife and his little daughter. They tag along his journey to Mumbai as he is unable to repay money he owes on his store. With no contacts and addresses, except that of his friend, Omkar, Deepak takes extreme measures when stepping to Mumbai while searching for him.
He is easily tricked by two con-men who sold him a Flat for 10, 000 RS, only to find out while searching them for the documents. With no details on them, the Mumbai police refuse to file an F.I.R. His wife meets an escort working at a night bar who provides them an unconstructed flat for time being and convinces her to be a bar dancer till Deepak becomes stable.
Deepak gets hired as driver for a security bureau with a monthly pay of 15, 000 Rs. Deepak's senior realizes that he is far too innocent and does various favours for him in order to gain his trust to loot the security agency. Deepak is extremely against the theft when the senior first mentions it. Then the senior blackmails him saying that a previously stolen box is currently kept in Deepak's house. Feeling cornered, Deepak agrees to the risky plan of stealing the keys for this box when suddenly they are both robbed again and the senior is killed. Meanwhile Rakhi loses her job tragically. Deepak finds the box stolen by his senior in his house and comes up with a plan to ensure Rakhi and Mahi's safe return to their village.
The movie ends when his attempt to steal the keys from the agency cost him his life but through a shrewd tactic he is able to pass on Rakhi the key for the stolen box. Rakhi and Mahi return to the village with Rakhi lost in memory of Deepak and their happy past.
marked actress Anwita Paul's debut, known by her screen name Patralekha. As Paul was in a relationship with the lead actor Rao, the production house did not disclose her name until the trailer was released. When press kept questioning about the lead actress, the filmmakers dismissed the question by calling her a "new girl from FTII".
Production[edit]
While the film was originally set to be directed by Ajay Bahl, due to creative differences he was replaced by Hansal Mehta. In December 2013, it was announced that shooting would begin in Rajasthan.
The film was first scheduled to release on 1 May 2014, which was subsequently shifted to 30 May. On 5 May, 26 minutes of footage was previewed at a Mumbai event.
Soundtrack[edit]
The songs were composed by Jeet Ganguly with lyrics by Rashmi Singh. Rashmi Singh received Best Lyricist award at the 60th Filmfare Awards for her lyrics to the song "Muskurane."

Every single dazzly detail from that time when George married Amazing Amal.

Wedding pants. WEDDING PANTS! (Photo: PIERRE TEYSSOT/AFP/Getty Images)
Just when we thought Amal Alamuddin and George Clooney's wedding couldn't get any more Hollywood Glamour, she went and upped the chic factor….
By wearing a pair of perfectly-tailored wedding pants.
Amal, 36, wore the ridiculously stylish, high-waisted, white wedding pants to the civil ceremony part of the celebrations.
The move sparked an internet wedding pants frenzy, with Twitter users dubbing Amal (who, as an international human rights barrister, is already a bit of a #feministicon and a #careericon) a #styleicon.
"Completely obsessed with #Amal Alamuddin," one wrote.
"She's a style goddess," another tweeted.
Another Twitter user wrote: "I know he's George Clooney, but does anyone else think she's a little out of his league? Or everyone's league?"

George Clooney got married on the weekend.
First of all, lets call it like it is:
Human rights activist and drop-dead gorgeous all-round inspiring woman, Amal Alamuddin married an ageing yet, terribly handsome actor, George Clooney, over the weekend.
Just when we'd begun to think that Hollywood glamour was over, quashed by reams of Hollywood tape, scuba-material dresses and braless tuxedoes, this couple of restored the withering standards with old-fashioned class, beautiful outfits, Italy and vintage speed boats.

Post-wedding, what are they doing right now? This.
This morning, they went out for lunch with their equally glamorous guests.
Spotted: their wedding bands. The rings are understated in that sort of completely overstated way.
A humble band, the simplest sign of united love set behind the most flamboyant of settings. Most notable? The dress.
It was couture Giambattista Valli.
Translation: "flicking through this gallery is probably the closest you'll ever get to it".
Which makes it all the more heavenly.
But before we saw today's dress there was a wedding. And before the wedding was the lead-up. All in all, the marriage of George and Amal can't be simply described as a marriage. It was a four-day celebration of love. A festival of love.
It all began with George having a rather low-key sun-soaked brekky at his favourite restaurant with his pals, a la Cindy Crawford.
Later that day, US Vogue editor, Anna Wintour arrived and it was soon revealed that the couple would be selling the rights to their wedding pictures to Vogue and of course, be using the money to make a donation to a charity of their choosing.
And then we got confirmation of their closest pals as the big names rolled in to town: Matt Damon, Emily Blunt and Bono.

The women wore florals. The men, suits. There are few photos of them partying together. But there are hundreds of photos of them all stepping into boats looking awkwardly regal. But always, glamorous.
But the question most celebrity spotters were asking: where were Brad and Angelina? Rumour has it they couldn't get away from filming their first movie together since Mr & Mrs Smith in Greece. But now, it's believed they were there for the wedding and just kept a low-profile in the lead-up. Classy.
Also on the guest list -but flying under the paparazzi-radar – was actor Cate Blanchett and author Kathy Lette, the wife of Alamuddin's boss, Geoffrey Robertson QC. Ben Affleck was also rumoured to be attending but couldn't due to filming commitments.
The night before the wedding, Amal wore a red, silk Alexander McQueen dress. A dress that must've been made for that Venetian night because there was nothing more perfect than the breeze whipping through that train. Heavenly.
Apparently, George was whisked away for his 'stag night' where he drank expensive wine but no one really cares because of Amal and that dress. She was literally circled by her family, looking like she was living a scene from My Big Fat Greek Wedding but there was nothing more beautiful than her smile. It said it all. Amal Alamuddin is in love.
The ceremony took place in front of around 90 guests at sunset in a seven-star hotel called, Aman Canal Grande Hotel. They were married by their close friend and ex-mayor of Rome, Walter Veltroni.
George waved to the adoring crowds – locals and tourists – as he arrived to the venue. He looked dashing in Armani.
Little has been revealed about Amal's wedding dress and no photos have been leaked after the couple requested all their guests leave their phones and cameras at the door. But did they deprive them of the memory? Would they do that? Never. George and Amal gave each of the guests a digital camera that was linked to a database where all the pictures could be reviewed and traced so that if a photo was leaked, they'd be able to tell who leaked it. Firm, but fair. Like it.
After a ceremony, a source has revealed guests were served champagne and canapes like polenta with wild mushrooms and prosciutto ham with figs. Yum.
Close to home, Australian designer Johanna Johnson was rather thrilled at being given the honour of dressing Amal's friend, Jennifer Robinson known only as a "confidant to the bride" and presumably held some sort of 'bridesmaid' role. She wore a beautiful, black lace dress.
Reckon it's all over? No way. The festival continues. They're enjoying a long, lunch RIGHT AT THIS VERY MOMENT. They have just motored past fans lining the canal in a vintage-inspired timber speed boat with the Italian word for love 'amore' adorned on the side. Crush. No doubt there are more details to come, we'll bring them to you. Stay tuned …

Sergio Aguero missed two penalties inside the opening 21 minutes in Manchester City's Champions League play-off fixture.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola lauded the response of Sergio Aguero, who went on to score three goals after missing two first-half penalties in the opening leg of Tuesday's Champions League qualifying play-off.
Aguero netted a hat-trick as City cruised to a 5-0 win at Steaua Bucharest, but it could have been more for the Argentine forward.
He was left frustrated from the spot twice inside 21 minutes after his eighth-minute effort was saved by goalkeeper Florin Nita, while he blasted his second penalty over the crossbar following David Silva's 13th-minute opener.
"The fact he missed the penalties is part of the game but it was important that Sergio stayed focused and didn't get down," Guardiola said.
"He focused on his game and after he scored three goals.
"It's not important how many times you fall down, it's how many times you stand up and try again."
Aguero did make amends four minutes before half-time, and he completed his hat-trick with a late double.
The 28-year-old, however, continues to struggle from the penalty spot, having missed four of his last five in European competition.
"I'm confident if he's confident. It depends on the players. If he's confident, for me it's not a problem," Guardiola replied when asked if Aguero will remain City's first-choice penalty taker.
City host Steaua in the return leg on August 24, after facing Stoke City in the Premier League on Saturday.

"Rising prices and collapsing confidence could portend that both inflation and slowing growth are looming, a sure recipe for stagflation."
If the US does fall into stagflation then it is clearly a time for systemic change in our decision and policy making, and the mass turnover of the old leadership and their elites.
Stagflation is a policy error de luxe, when not precipitated by a major exogenous supply shock like the oil embargo of the 1970s. Up until that point most economists did not even believe that stagflation was possible.
It takes an extraordinary combination of almost purposefully bad decisions to create stagflation from within the policy choices of the economic system itself. Something like strangling economic demand by severely curbing income growth for the broad public while generously supplying easy money and selective asset inflation to the top one percent over a period of years might do it.
And it is a hell for the working public, that sees their income opportunities continue to stagnate while the prices of essentials continue to increase.
Alas, if there is stagflation I am sure the credibility trap will compel the propeller heads and their paymasters to find some scapegoat, or some elite friendly cause like a 'global trade war,' to carry the blame, rather than their own distorted, self-serving decision making.
I am posting the charts shortly after the close. I will most likely have to update them tomorrow.
Big cap tech is coming out after the bell, with Amazon, Microsoft, and Intel reporting their numbers. And the reaction so far in the stock futures has been 'enthusiastic' to say the least.

The package ADOL-F is a Fortran 90 interface to the ADOL-C library and facilitates the evaluation of first and higher derivatives of vector functions that are defined by computer programs written in Fortran 90/77. The numerical values of derivative vectors are obtained free of truncation errors at a small multiple of the run time and randomly accessed memory of the given function evaluation program. Fortran 90 allows operator overloading (like C++) but lacks constructor/destructor operators for user-defined types. Therefore, we employ a more sophisticated scheme for the management of active temporary variables than does ADOL-C. The derivative calculations involve a possibly substantial (but always predictable) amount of data accessed strictly sequentially and therefore automatically paged out to external files.

Fish are much more than colourful creatures that are said to swim sluggishly through the aquarium every day. Individual behaviours such as food intake, territory behaviour and much more can also be observed in the small aquarium inhabitants. You can find out what the right home looks like and how your fish will stay fit for many years with the right food in our pet fish guide. Have you become curious? Then read on now.
What is the ideal home for my fish?
Since it is common knowledge that fish live in water, an aquarium should be at the top of your shopping list. So-called starter sets are best suited for beginners. These often include the aquarium itself, a pump, filter material and any decoration. Nanoaquariums are also suitable for beginners. If you decide against a set and for the composition from individual elements, the following things should belong to the basic equipment. An aquarium with enough space for all inhabitants, bottom gravel such as black aquarium gravel, living plants for a good climate, a pump, filter material, the right lighting and decorations that invite you to play and hide. The entire interior should be geared to the needs of the aquarium inhabitants. Since these can vary greatly depending on the species, you should choose the composition of your fish carefully.
Which inhabitants are ideal for my aquarium?
A rough distinction is made between freshwater and saltwater fish. Fish that live in fresh water are less demanding than their fellow fish and therefore easier to care for. As a beginner you should, therefore, bet on a freshwater aquarium. Popular fish are goldfish, guppies, barbels, mollies, scalars, rebent fish as well as neon and discus fish. Some shimmer in bright colors, others look more like prehistoric animals. Which inhabitants you choose for your aquarium is up to you, but make sure in advance that the species are compatible and provide approximately equal conditions of water temperature, light conditions, and food.
How do I feed my fish?
Nutrition plays an important role in the proper keeping of fish as pets. That is why well-known brands offer fish food specially designed to meet the needs of different species. For example, there are special mixtures for goldfish, catfish or ornamental fish. Daily feeding is a must. The amount of food depends on the type and number of aquarium inhabitants. Be careful not to feed too much, because fish can also get problems due to too much food supply. The right food supports a healthy digestion and development of the agile swimmers. Therefore, quality and a balanced formula should be taken into account when selecting the feed. You are guaranteed to enjoy your fish for a long time to come.
Everything for your first aquarium can be found in the online shop of Rinderohr. In the special category "Aquaristics" not only beginners but also professionals will find what they are looking for. Well-known brands, numerous aquariums, high-quality food and practical accessories all in one place can be found in the popular online shop. Benefit from attractive offers and unbeatable prices. A delivery free of shipping costs is already possible from a purchase value of 19€. Have a look at the Aquaristikshop now and browse through the extensive assortment.

Phoning people who have told a charity not to do so and asking them to change their minds can be an effective fundraising technique, delegates to the International Fundraising Congress in the Netherlands have been told.
Karl Holweger, chief executive of telephone fundraising agency Pell & Bales, said about two-thirds of such calls resulted in people changing their minds. He said 8 per cent of the people contacted in this way objected to it.
"If three or four years ago someone asked you not to contact them by phone, they might feel differently about it now," he said. "It's worth putting a call in just to see whether they do."
At the workshop on telephone fundraising, Holweger also said that asking fundraisers not to accept one-off donations over the phone was an effective strategy.
"Obviously it can be difficult to turn money down, but we have found that fundraisers bring in more monthly direct debits if they are told to refuse one-off gifts," he said.
He added that charities should link up their separate databases of volunteers, donors, campaigners and customers of the charity's trading arm. "Some charities have more than 40 databases," he said. "You could be contacting the same person 20 times in a month without realising it."

R. Kelly Sentenced to 30 Years in Federal Prison
Image: Amie Lamor Thompson / Shutterstock.com.
By Rashad Grove | June 29, 2022
Following his conviction on federal racketeering and sex trafficking charges, disgraced singer/songwriter R. Kelly has been sentenced to 30 years in federal prison, reports CNN.
According to the report, prosecutors requested that the judge sentence Kelly to more than 25 years behind bars. His team of lawyers asked for 10 or fewer, claiming the prosecutors' request was "tantamount to a life sentence."
"He committed these crimes using his fame and stardom as both a shield, which prevented close scrutiny or condemnation of his actions," stated the federal prosecutors. "And a sword, which gave him access to wealth and a network of enablers to facilitate his crimes, and an adoring fan base from which to cull his victims."
As U.S. District Court Judge Ann Donnelly began reading his sentence, survivors of Kelly's abuse held hands and prayed. Meanwhile, Kelly was emotionless as the sentence was read.
"You left in your wake a trail of broken lives," Donnelly told Kelly,
During sentencing, Donnelly said she acknowledged the childhood sexual abuse that Kelly experienced by a family member and a landlord.
"It may explain, at least in part, what led to your behavior," the judge said. "It most surely is not an excuse."
Last September, Kelly was found guilty on nine counts, including one charge of racketeering and eight counts of violations of the Mann Act, a sex trafficking law. Prosecutors from the Eastern District of New York accused Kelly of using his status as a celebrity and a "network of people at his disposal to target girls, boys and young women for his own sexual gratification."
The five-week federal trial included testimony from witnesses who said they were sexually and physically abused by Kelly. The court also heard from people involved with orchestrating the disgraced R&B singer's 1994 marriage to the late singer Aaliyah when she was just 15 years old and after he allegedly got her pregnant.
Jovante Cunningham, a former backup singer for Kelly, lauded the sentence handed out by the judge.
"I started this journey 30 years ago," Cunningham said outside the court after the hearing. "There wasn't a day in my life up until this moment that I actually believed that the judicial system would come through for Black and Brown girls. I stand here very proud of my judicial system, very proud of my fellow survivors and very pleased with the outcome."
Kelly's attorney, Jennifer Bonjean, who did not address the court because of several other criminal cases that Kelly is facing, said she "rejects that he is this monster."
"He accepts that he is a flawed individual," Bonjean said, "but he is not this one-dimensional monster that the government has portrayed and the media has portrayed."
R. Kelly's only comment was when he said that he wouldn't speak: "Yes, your honor, that's my wish."
Before his sentence was handed down, the court heard statements from seven of Kelly's victims, including Jane Doe 2, who testified at trial.
"It's been 23 years since we knew each other, and you've victimized a lot of girls since then," she said, addressing Kelly. "Now it's your turn to have your freedom taken from you," she continued.
Kelly's trial was seen as a watershed moment in the #MeToo movement ,which culminated in the premiere of Lifetime's Surviving R. Kelly docu-series in early 2019. The R&B singer was indicted on child pornography charges in Illinois in 2008 but was later acquitted.
"No one can undo the harm that has been done to these victims," said attorney Gloria Allred, who represented three of the victims who had testified. "But at least it's time for Mr. Kelly to be accountable."
Bonjean said she plans to appeal Kelly's sentence.
"We were prepared for it," Bonjean said of the sentence. "We are now prepared to fight this appeal."
Kelly has been jailed in Brooklyn without bail since 2019. He still faces child pornography and obstruction-of-justice charges in Chicago, where the trial is scheduled to begin on August 15, 2022.

NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts Statement in Response to Governor Baker's Most Recent Supreme Judicial Court Nominee, Scott Kafker
Today, Governor Charlie Baker announced the nomination of Judge Scott Kafker to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court. This nomination, the fifth of his tenure as governor, will fill the final vacancy currently expected on the seven-member court. In response, Rebecca Hart Holder, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts, issued the following statement:
"The Trump administration is trying to systematically eliminatethe right to abortion using the judicial system. President Trump has already taken the first step to overturn Roe v. Wade by installing anti-choice Justice Neil Gorsuch on the U.S. Supreme Court. It is beyond imperative to ensure that the Commonwealth's highest court will resist the Trump administration's anti-choice agenda and uphold the Massachusetts state constitutional right to abortion, no matter what happens to Roe v. Wade.
"Protecting Bay Staters' fundamental right to access reproductive health care hinges on ensuring that the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts will uphold the right to choose for Massachusetts women. NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts and our 10,000 member activists have secured the guarantee that Gov. Baker's previous four judicial nominees will uphold the state constitutional right to abortion, and our expectation is that Gov. Baker will continue to appoint justices who uphold this right.
"No person can fully participate in the social, economic and political life of the nation without the ability to decide when and whether to become a parent. NARAL Pro Choice Massachusetts will mobilize our membership to protect the constitutional right to abortion and ensure that Bay Staters can determine their families, their lives, and their destinies."

LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — Swiss World Cup forward Xherdan Shaqiri has left relegated Stoke City for Champions League runner-up Liverpool.
Liverpool said the 26-year-old player had signed "a long-term contract", but did not disclose the transfer fee. Media reports put it at 13 million pounds ($17.2 million).
"I'm very happy to be here. It's a huge club with big history, big players and a fantastic coach (Jurgen Klopp)," said Shaqiri. "As a player you always want to be on the biggest stage in football.
"A few years ago I wanted to come too, but it didn't happen. I'm really happy I'm finally here. I want to improve myself too, I want to be with the best and I want to win titles. That's what I'm here for."
Stoke was relegated from the Premier League in May. Liverpool, beaten 3-1 by Real Madrid in the Champions League final, finished fourth in England's top flight.

Really, Really Miss You (很想很想你) – Chapter 7
August 11, 2014 by hoju	15 Comments
Toupai reveals a talent he has kept hidden for years. Want to speculate on his motivation? 🙂
Chapter 7 – Sauteed Black Pepper "Little" Ribs (2)
Gu Sheng shut off her computer and threw herself onto her bed. Hugging her blankets, she started rolling around, back and forth. It was like her blood vessels had all completely burst. Her mind was filled with nothing but this amazing cast of people. It was practically the most desired line-up that she had been hoping for her entire life, k?
She was so thrilled she did not even hear her mobile phone until it had rung countless times.
When she picked up, it turned out to be the person she had just said goodbye to in the YY room: Geng Xiaoxing.
"Congratulations, Friend Gu Sheng."
She laughed and asked what was going on and why was she calling so late.
"Actually… uh… I wanted to have a heart-to-heart chat with you."
"Heart-to-heart chat?" Gu Sheng was puzzled. "We saw each other everyday — eating, sleeping, going to class together — and you never wanted any heart-to-heart chats. How come now we're on holidays, just past Lunar New Year, and you start to have matters on your heart?"
On the other end of the phone, the other party started to hem and haw.
Her intuition told her this was an issue revolving around love. An issue regarding love? Then there was a high chance it had to do with that Wanmei Group Leader DaRen.
Sure enough, Geng Xiaoxing would start to say something, then stop, and finally, after several times of this, she confessed that she had just had her first-ever-in-history WeChat[1] session with Jue Mei Sha Yi. It was a purely personal, purely for friendship session. All he had done was merely tell her a ghost story, and she had fallen into bliss and was now unable to sleep.
Gu Sheng was about to die laughing as she listened to this. Jue Mei most definitely did not tell her just an ordinary ghost story. It was obviously one from Strange Tales of Liaozhai about the ghost with the painted skin who would steal a person's soul[2].
"Friend Geng Xiaoxing," Gu Sheng said in a low tone so that her mom, who was watching television in the living room, would not be able to hear her. "Have you turned completely into a voice lover?"
"Huh?" Geng Xiaoxing was quiet for two seconds, and then she, too, lowered her voice. "It seems, perhaps, maybe… yes."
"If a guy is ridiculously handsome but his voice sounds bad, would you like him?"
"I think, it seems… no."
"If a guy is sweet and considerate but his voice sounds bad, would you like him?"
"If a guy is filthy rich but his voice sounds bad, would you like him?"
"No… no, I wouldn't."
"Congratulations! You have made the complete transformation into a voice lover."
Gu Sheng breathed out a long sigh, and, in a somewhat mournful voice, she stated, "If a guy's voice sounds bad and his standardized Mandarin pronunciation is not correct, but he wants to spend an entire lifetime with you… Oh, how painful that would be."
Geng Xiaoxing had previously scoffed at her views on this, but now she was fully in agreement.
Not handsome? But as long as he was clean, that was good enough. Not sweet? Well, he could be taught. And nowadays, if you did not have money, you could still work hard and earn lots in your career……
However, if his voice sounded bad…
Simply unimaginable!
As these two voice lovers came into agreement, they had completely forgotten why Geng Xiaoxing had made the phone call in the first place.
She never thought that Toupai was absolutely the high-efficiency type. After only a few days, the planner for the song was starting to arrange a time with Gu Sheng for the first rehearsal for "Sword Cry in the Land of the Rivers and Lakes."
Gu Sheng's reply, of course, was that any time was fine with her.
Those people all had eminent statuses, and she would definitely conform to their needs, wholly and completely.
As a treat to Wanmei's fans, this rehearsal was completely open to the public. Each of these people had plenty of his or her own fans. While Gu Sheng logged in and waited for the start time of the rehearsal, she watched as the audience numbers jumped from being in the thousands to ten thousands. She was becoming less and less calm. The screen below was continuously scrolling down like flowing water, so quickly that the comments were unreadable.
As she hung out there, waiting, she saw a sentence pop up in her private chat. It was Toupai
Qiang Qing Ci: Did you practice ahead of time?
Gu Sheng: Mm-hmm. Dada, don't worry. I practiced for a long time.
Worried that she would embarrass Toupai or something along those lines, she had dared not go without practicing.
Even though she only had a few lines, the others with her were all golden voices… Pressure was intense, k?
Qiang Qing Ci did not reply again.
Following closely behind were private messages from Feng Ya Song, Jue Mei Sha Yi, and even Dou Dou Dou Bing telling her not to be nervous. Dou Dou Dou Bing also very considerately told her: Even if you sing better than all of us, you'll still be criticized. You're a new person… You'll have to withstand some pressure, eh. Add oil!
Gu Sheng immediately expressed her resolve: Don't worry. My heart is extremely healthy and strong!
After another ten minutes or so, they began chatting.
Listening to them, they all sounded like old friends, joking and bantering with each other. As usual, Qiang Qing Ci maintained his cool, withdrawn demeanor and did not come on his microphone… Gu Sheng, on the other hand, was too much of an unknown and really did not have much to say to these respected elders, so she also kept her microphone off and merely listened.
More than ten thousand people. It was almost equivalent to an outdoor concert.
But these hardcore fans were also happily listening to all these DaRen, many of whom had practically gone into hiding, chat away casually. Couldn't ask for more, k?!
Although this was called a rehearsal, because of the vocal delay problem that occurred in YY, it was not possible for them to actually sing a song together live. As a result, the format merely was, whoever amongst them wished to sing would then sing a couple lines. In reality, they were simply calling this a rehearsal in order to provide a pre-event warm-up for Wanmei's anniversary.
Sure enough, after the others had sung and it was Gu Sheng's turn, the fans below were not very enthusiastic.
The incessant love declarations to one's own Dada continued as before, completely treating her as if she was thin air.
Her singing was in superb form, and after completing her part, she discovered that, besides a few comments that had said her breath control was unsteady and she did not seem to have enough breath control, there really was not much criticism. She honestly felt good and at ease. Thankfully, she had not embarrassed Toupai.
"Our talented and refined Toupai DaRen?" Dou Dou Dou Bing very wisely turned the cannons toward the biggest heavyweight of the night, Toupai. "Toupai? Toupai? Where are you? Come and receive your suitors[3]~"
Dou Dou Dou Bing was his old friend, so naturally she spoke more freely.
The channel went quiet for a few seconds.
"Mm. I'm here." Qiang Qing Ci answered her, completely
A voice that hit the mark the instant it was heard. It was a male voice that was like an instant kill on all girls…
"Need me to speak some lines?" He followed up in an unhurried voice with a question.
"Speaking lines will be fine… not speaking them is fine, too. Just say something. Or give us a little special program or something." Dou Dou Dou Bing exhaled a long breath. "It's fortunate that you and I have known each other for several years now, so I'm immune. Qiang Qing Ci Dada, could you, just slightly, even a little bit, tone down your doting voice?"
Qiang Qing Ci could not help letting out a chuckle.
Gu Sheng could feel her heart give a thump. She was utterly intoxicated.
Just one laugh and she was already truly intoxicated.
She had listened to him for two or three years now, too, k? How come she wasn't the least bit immune? Oh heaven…
That absolutely natural, absolutely charming laughter — she had to secretly record it one day and use it as her ringtone or something.
He contemplated for a moment. "What sort of special program would be good?"
The comment box was scrolling by with remarks coming in like the tides.
"Qiang Qing Ci Dada, I love you! For all my life, ah!!!" "Dada, I'm your diehard fan, ah! Even when you cough, it sounds nice. So sexy don't you think don't you think don't you think, ah?!!!!" "DaRen, recite a full line of something, please. I'll record it to be a ringtone!" "Please, DaRen, say, 'You seductive little vixen, you.' Begging on my knees!" "I only want one sentence. 'I love you.' I'm going to record it and repeat it 100 times as my ringtone, yeah."……
The fans were many tonight. The fans were crazy tonight. But the fans of the other artistes could not equal even one-tenth of the fervor of Toupai's fans
In the end, even the special guests could not help bursting out in laughter.
Fei Shao very subtly voiced his "envy." "Ai! Tonight, I'm completely beneath Toupai…"
He was being deliberately ambiguous. Dou Dou Dou Bing could not help shooting back at him, "Qiang Qing Ci never hits on girls and absolutely does not hit on guys. That's the custom here. Don't use our Toupai to play up a bromance[4]."
Fei Shao laughed, "Play up? Do I need to play one up? Haven't I reached the status of 'saint of bromance' already?"
He was a singer, so naturally, his speaking voice was not as rich and clearly articulated as Qiang Qing Ci's.
Gu Sheng thought to herself, any voice compared with Toupai's would instantly seem to grow dull…
"I…" Toupai stretched out the word, as if he was deliberating. The tone of the tail end of that word was truly spellbinding. "…. will sing. Is that alright?"
Sing?!
Sing??!!
Gu Sheng was shocked. The fans were shocked. The special guests and the people from Wanmei Group who were present were all shocked.
Who had ever heard Qiang Qing Ci sing? Absolutely no one, k?!
Back in the days when Qiang Qing Ci was very popular – crazily popular – on the internet, regardless of how the fans begged him, regardless of how important the event and host were, there was absolutely no way of making him open his mouth to sing… And so, everyone thought that Toupai was definitely a prime example of being tone deaf.
But now, tonight, Dada was going to sing?
Gu Sheng immediately pressed the record button. She could swear that everyone else in the room was doing that exact same thing she was doing: recording it…
Fei Shao choked on this a bit. Somewhat unbelievingly, he said, "Qiang Qing Ci, are you trying to carve out a share of our singing world, too?"
Dou Dou Dou Bing also complained indignantly, "Hey, the way CVs and singers project their voices is different. Do you really think that if you use your fully CV voice to sing, you won't go off-key?"
In contrast, Jue Mei Sha Yi, who had been watching from the sidelines the whole time, now very, very, very excitedly jumped in and interrupted, "You guys are finished. Your fans are going to completely defect now… The reason he didn't sing is because his singing is too good, you know?"
Jue Mei Sha Yi let out a couple of loud chortles. He was totally looking forward to this.
Gu Sheng's heart was thumping wildly, still not daring to believe this was real.
Until… until everyone had finished with their ranting and jeering and Qiang Qing Ci very calmly requested, "Sheng Sheng, could I trouble you to help me put up the lyrics?"
"Huh?" she blurted. The next second, she cleared her throat and replied in surrender, "Qiang Qing Ci Dada, my hands are handicapped. I'm absolutely incapable of handling lyrics and stuff like that…"
To follow along with each line he sang and put up the lyrics?
She reckoned that by the time he sang ten lines, she would still be only putting up the fourth line…
"It's not a big deal," Qiang Qing Ci told her with a hint of laughter in his voice, completely ignoring the countless number of lyrics experts who were volunteering themselves up for service. "However will be fine."
However will be fine…
This could be done "however?" Could it be really be done just "however"?
This was Toupai's first time singing, and she, the awful lyrics scroller, was definitely going to be beat to death.
Gu Sheng had no way out of this; she could not reject him there on the spot. She did not speak for three seconds but then steeled herself resolutely. "Dada, what song would you like to sing?"
He pondered briefly, then calmly stated a name: "Zui Meng Xian Lin." [Drunken Dream in Divine Rain]
The moment that name was uttered, the microphones went totally silent.
A song for a female voice. And one that was absolutely sung in the high register.
Tonight, Toupai's "beauty" was indeed going to quell the "beauty" of all the others here[5].
[1] Orig. 微信 'Weixin.' Literally meaning 'micro-message.' A text and voice messaging app. Besides text messaging, there is hold-to-talk voice messaging, social networking, group broadcast messaging, etc. This app is hugely popular in China but also has a following outside of the country. Its English name is WeChat. www.wechat.com. Interesting side note: For those not familiar with the app, if you watched Boss and Me, the text messaging between Feng Teng and Shan Shan was not SMS. The interface where they were typing was actually the WeChat interface. (I love this app!)
[2] 聊斋 "Liaozhai." Liaozhai Zhiyi or Strange Tales of Liaozhai is a collection of hundreds of supernatural-themed stories. Amongst the more well known ones is the story, "Painted Skin" in which a gentleman takes in a beautiful young girl into his home. The girl actually turns out to be an evil, ugly ghost who had painted on a skin with the appearance of a beautiful maiden to fool the gentleman. Gu Sheng is secretly laughing that Geng Xiaoxing is acting like her soul's been stolen, like she's fallen under Jue Mei's spell.
[3] 接客 "jie ke." This term is actually used to refer to prostitutes coming to receive their patrons. In this context, Dou Bing is merely teasing, of course.
[4] 卖腐 "mai fu." Literally, this means "to sell oneself as being 'rotten,' and is referring to someone who is associating himself with a boy-love rumour. In China, things associated with the 耽美 "danmei" or boy-love (BL) culture are often referred to as being 腐 "rotten." This is not meant to be insulting. In fact, it is used by those who associate with this culture as a form of self-mockery in acknowledgement that they are aware that outsiders may criticize their preferences.
[5] 艳压群芳 "yan ya qun fang." In a multitude of splendid and beautiful flowers, a single one stands out and surpasses all the others. In this context, Toupai's talent was going to surpass all the other talented CVs and singers present.
剑啸江湖 "Sword Cry in the Land of the Rivers and Lakes" does not actually make an official singing appearance in the story. This scene is as close as it gets. I won't translate the lyrics since they never appear in the story. (There are many more songs coming up in the story, and I promise I will be doing full translations on some of them. In fact, there's one next chapter.) In summary, the lyrics are introducing the characters in the game, with one singer for each character. We can have fun speculating which character and lyrics Sheng Sheng would be singing.
A little aside, does anyone else count seven individual singers that would be needed for this song, not six like what was written in the novel? A minor glitch that will likely be edited out when the novel goes to the printing press?
By the way, I made up the term "lyrics scroller." 😉 I couldn't think of any way to describe it. From what I understand, nowadays in YY, there are programs you can use to do the lyrics while you sing, but I think you need to do some prep work to time it along with the music. From what my quick digging found out, Tto manually put up lyrics is basically a cut and paste job in time with the music, but to do this, line-by-line, actually takes some skill so that you don't lag behind the singer.

I was looking forward to Toupai sing, since his voice is describe as mesmerizing
Your wish will come true soon…
ah thanks Hoju:) finally Toupai sing 🙂 maybe after this Sheng Sheng busy hear the recording all the time hehe.
and talking abt good voice there is time too when i talk with my husband or my sister about the advertisement in tv when they use people with good voice and make you wonder and want to know who is the real person behind that voices 🙂
You're thinking like Sheng Sheng, Hanny. 🙂
Maybe I'm shallow, but I don't think I could ever be a complete voice lover. I remember listening to a gorgeous duet and I was completely enthralled by the female singer's voice. It was crystal clear and reminded me of a beautiful fairy. However, when I looked up the MV in Youtube, my illusion was dashed to pieces. While I still loved the song, my mental image was traumatized… 😉
Toupai, let me hear you sing. Kya, I think I'm being affected by all of his fans, I feel that I'm being brainwashed to idolize him too, lol. But well, I just LOVE guys that can sing. ^^
*You must join Toupai's fan club. You must join Toupai's fan club.* It looks like my subliminal messages have been working. (Maybe if you played that MV backwards, you'll hear my hypnotic voice telling you to idolize Toupai… LOL)
Ok, keep an eye out for next chapter. There's probably one line in there that will make you feel like you're listening to yourself speak. 🙂
I will look forward to that. ^^ So it was you who were hypnotizing me, i knew it, you have to take responsibility and supply me more Toupai in the future. Sigh, I just like him more and more…
Thanks for the new update, hoju! This story is just so cute that I always feel like I am falling in love for the very first time. 🙂
1) Painted Skin sounds incredibly fascinating. What happens to the gentleman who brought home the ghost? Does this story have anything to do with the movie, Painted Skin, starring Vicky Zhao and Chen Kun?
2) Is "Sword Cry in the Land of the Rivers and Lakes" the theme song to a video game? What is the game about? I am assuming that most Chinese RPG have some sort of storyline, or else, there would not be a bunch of drama adaptations of these games. After watching the video you posted, I can imagine Sheng Sheng singing the part of the 3rd female character who appears in the video, the one wearing pink with the fans and umbrella. She seems so dainty, demure, and sweet, just as I imagine Sheng Sheng to be. The other female characters in the game seem too "warrior-princess like," especially the 2nd female character in the video, to be anything like Sheng Sheng. What do you think? So this song will be sung at the Wanmei anniversary event? Does the story mention how the reception for Sheng Sheng was at the event when the song was actually performed?
1) In short, the ghost kills the gentleman, but he is later saved and brought back to life. Here's a summary of the story. http://www.cultural-china.com/chinaWH/html/en/History163bye636.html and here is a translated excerpt http://reader.homestead.com/strange_tales.html. The Painted Skin movie got its inspiration from the original story, but, even though I honestly can't really remember too much about the movie, I'm pretty sure it's only a loose adaptation.
2) Yup, it's the theme song to 新剑侠情缘叁Online 'New Jian Xia Qing Yuan 3 Online.' (Often abbreviated as 剑三 or 'Sword 3.') This is the RPG game that Gu Sheng's cousin plays (mentioned in Ch. 3). I've seen the name translated as The Legend of Swordman 3or Sword Heroes' Fate 3.
I agree that the 3rd female character is the most suitable for Sheng Sheng and her shy, sweet personality. I think Dou Bing would make a good warrior princess (the 2nd female character).
This song is actually a pre-event warm-up so it is supposed to be released before the anniversary event to get all the fans excited and promote the event.
(BTW, can you tell that the singer of the 1st male character, the monk, is Xiao Qu'er, the singer of Shang Ye?)
Yikes! I just read the translation of Painted Skin! Scary! But I had no sympathy for the gentleman, for he already had a wife. If he weren't so greedy and wanted a young, beautiful concubine, then he wouldn't have had his heart torn out by the ghost. I was surprised the wife went through so much trouble to revive the gentleman, but I suppose in the olden days, a woman's livelihood depended on her husband. I don't see any moral in this story, except maybe "beauty is only skin deep?" Perhaps it is fitting that Painted Skin is mentioned in this story, since this is a story about voice lovers, and physical appearances take a back seat to voices.
I had no clue the same singer sang Shang Ye and the monk character! I must go back and listen!
Oh, when will Sheng Sheng meet Toupai?! I am as superficial as you are, hoju! If I were Sheng Sheng, I would only continue to "love" Toupai if he turned out to be handsome. If he were some short, pot-bellied guy with body odor and a receding hairline, I don't think I would be able to idolize him anymore. Oh, how shallow I am! It's sad but true! By the way, which female singer and which duet are you referring to in your comments above?
The meet-up isn't for quite a few more chapters. I'm actually ahead in my translating at the moment, and I'm nearly at the point where they have their first meeting. 😀
It's the version of The Myth theme song sung by Sun Nam and Han Hong. Simply beautiful. I love Han Hong's crystal clear high register. But when I watched the MV… I actually don't think she's ugly, but the manly outfit she wore (trenchcoat/suit and tinted glasses) totally ruined it… Ugh.
i read this while working LOLs, and i couldn't stop smiling. this is just.. cuteeeeee. i dont find any other word to describe this. cute. cute. cute. i wish this novel will be adapted into a drama. it must be really nice.
pleaseee gimme the description of Toupai. im curious. is he handsome like Yi Chen or Lu li Cheng *i'm a big fans of these both* 😀 pleaseee.. haha.. btw thanks anyway.. i really enjoy reading this ^^
I don't know if it will make it to drama land, but I do know it's going to make it to radio drama land! I'm so excited!!
LOL. Patience. I promise it won't be too, too long before Toupai makes his official 3-D world appearance.
Omg~ I can't help but squeal everything he calls "Sheng Sheng" hehe.
Thank you~
I suddenly want a guy who has a sexy chuckle lol

Q: How to append to a select box in the WordPress customiser from an API call? I'm working on a WordPress theme and I've added a select box to allow users to select a font for their site. I figured I'd use the Google Fonts API to grab the list of fonts rather than add all 900-and-something manually, but when I call the API I'm unable to append the returned data as options in the select box.
This is the PHP code for my select box class:
    class Customize_Select_Control extends WP_Customize_Control {
        public $type = 'select';

        public function render_content() {
            ?>

                <?php echo esc_html( $this->label ); ?>
                <select <?php $this->link(); ?> id="<?php echo str_replace(' ','-',strtolower(esc_html( $this->label ))); ?>-select">
                    <option value="<?php echo $this->value(); ?>" selected><?php echo $this->value(); ?></option>
                </select>

            <?php
        }
    }

I've then added a section, setting and control to the customiser using the following code:
    // Add Font Section
    $wp_customize->add_section( 'fonts' , array(
        'title' => __( 'Font', 'wordpress' ),
        'priority' => 100,
        'description' => __( 'Pick a font for your website.', 'wordpress' )
    ) );

    // Add the setting & control for the font
    $wp_customize->add_setting( 'font-select' , array(
        'default'   => 'Open Sans',
        'transport' => 'postMessage',
    ) );
    $wp_customize->add_control( new Customize_Select_Control( $wp_customize, 'font-select', array(
        'label'      => __( 'Font', 'wordpress' ),
        'section'    => 'fonts',
        'settings'   => 'font-select',
    ) ) );

The following code is supposed to append the options to the select box:
     $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: "https://www.googleapis.com/webfonts/v1/webfonts?key=[REDACTED]&sort=popularity&fields=items",
        dataType: "json",
        success: function (result, status, xhr){
          console.log(result.items);
          for (var i = 0; i<result.items.length; i++){
            var family = result.items[i].family;
            console.log(family);
            $('#font-select').append(`<option value="${family}">${family}</option>`);
          }
        },
        error: function (xhr, status, error) {
          alert("There was an error loading the Google fonts API: " + status + " " + error + " " + xhr.status + " " + xhr.statusText + "\n\nPlease save your changes and refresh the page to try again.")
        }
      });

If I change #font-select to body, it appends the options just fine, but however I try and append them to the select box, it just doesn't work. Any idea why and how I can make this work?

A: You can add Option value in select box in customizer admin panel as by below code :
Full code of your requirements

*

*you just have to add your google font api key in scripts

*where I have used 'twentynineteen' theme slug name you can use your theme slug name

There are 3 parts:
1)  function mytheme_customize_register( $wp_customize ) {
        //All our sections, settings, and controls will be added here

        $wp_customize->add_section( 'fonts' , array(
            'title' => __( 'Font', 'twentynineteen' ),
            'priority' => 100,
            'description' => __( 'Pick a font for your website.', 'twentynineteen' )
        ) );

        // Add the setting & control for the font
        $wp_customize->add_setting( 'font-select' , array(
            'type' => 'select',
            'default' => 'Roboto',
            'transport' => 'postMessage',
        ) );

        $wp_customize->add_control(  'font-select', array(
            'type' => 'select',
            'priority' => 10, // Within the section.
            'section' => 'core', // Required, core or custom.
            'description' => __( 'This is a date control with a red border.' ),
            'choices' => array( // Optional.
            'wordpress' => __( 'Roboto' ),
            'hamsters' => __( 'Lato' ),
            'jet-fuel' => __( 'Muli' ),

        ),
            'label'      => __( 'Font', 'twentynineteen' ),
            'section'    => 'fonts',
            'settings'   => 'font-select',
        )  );

     }
     add_action( 'customize_register', 'mytheme_customize_register' );

now add scripts file
2) function add_font_scripts(){

  wp_enqueue_script('custom_js_script', get_bloginfo('template_url').'/js/custom-scripts.js', array('jquery'));
}
add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'add_font_scripts' );

now last step please add below script in this file custom-scripts.js which we just enqueue above
3)  var $= jQuery;
$(document).ready(function(){

    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",

        url: "https://www.googleapis.com/webfonts/v1/webfonts?key=apikey&sort=popularity&fields=items",
        dataType: "json",

        success: function (result, status, xhr){
            var outputstate = [];
          console.log(result.items);
          for (var i = 0; i<result.items.length; i++){
            var family = result.items[i].family;
            console.log(family);

           outputstate.push('<option value="'+ family +'">'+ family +'</option>');
           $('#_customize-input-font-select').html(outputstate.join(''));
          }
        },
        error: function (xhr, status, error) {
          alert("There was an error loading the Google fonts API: " + status + " " + error + " " + xhr.status + " " + xhr.statusText + "\n\nPlease save your changes and refresh the page to try again.")
        }

        });
    });

I have try this code and It's Working fine!
I Hope this one is help you!

A: Your AJAX Success Callback is looking for the dropdown with id as font-select. However, the id of the Dropdown is based on the Label (which happens to be font).
The ID of the dropdown is created by following line of code in render_content method.
<?php echo str_replace(' ','-',strtolower(esc_html( $this->label ))); ?>

$this->label here will refer to the Fonts. Since you are using strtolower it will be fonts. I suggest you pass another variable for the id and populate it using that variable.

Home/Business/Brompton unveils new apparel line
Debut Brompton jacket stands up to a thorough water-pistolling at London launch event
Brompton unveils new apparel line
BikeBiz 29th July 2011	Business
British folding bike manufacturer Brompton has stepped into the cycling apparel world with its Oratory Jacket.
Three years in the making, the jacket is named after the Brompton Oratory that founder Andrew Ritchie overlooked when he founded the company.
Featuring the highly water resistant 'amphibious cotton, EPIC by Nextec Cotton fabric, the Oratory Jacket is lined with bamboo fabric – printed with a drawing of the Brompton Oratory by Sheffield artist Kid Acne.
The jacket includes a number of cycle specific performance features, combining them with the look and feel of a classic two-button jacket. Such features include a pull out high-vis rear panel, fold down cuffs with reflective panels, pit zips for ventilation and even a Oyster card pocket in sleeve.
Brompton marketing manager Emerson Roberts said at the launch: "Our aim is to be the personal transport brand of choice. Before the Oratory Jacket there was a choice of a blazer that offered no protection from the elements and wasn't really suited to a bike, or to wear high-vis gear.
"So the jacket addresses a genuine design need. Andrew developed the Brompton bike to be a solution to a need and we hope the Oratory jacket adds to that."
Brompton's head of design Will Carleysmith said: "It's a whole new market for us. The jacket has been designed to meet the disparate needs of people who want to use a bike in daily life without having to change into or out of garish cycle attire or waterproofs. It's about giving cyclists greater choice, but also about normalising cycling."
The cord jacket is only available in a male version so far, but the firm promised: "It is top of the list to get a women's jacket out there next." BikeBiz was told the female version has been designed and is ready to go into production, depending on how well the men's version is received. Such caution may well prove to be unfounded however, with pre-orders already high, before the jacket has officially launched.
The Oratory will retail for £250 and will be available to selected Brompton dealers from September 1st 2011. Stockists include Downland Cycles, Evans, Mosquito Bikes, On Your Bike, SJS Cycles and Velorution.

Achieve relevance through tips from Disney, PlayStation and Netflix
November 1, 2016 February 2, 2017
While John Lewis made it into eight place, the BBC found itself ranked 19th. And Ian Kirk, partner at Prophet, claimed it was a wake-up call for British business to achieve relevance. "We've realised that customers don't care for traditional brands in major British sectors such as finance, media and telcos," he said. "If these brands don't take action now to become more relevant to customers, others will. After all, these are exciting, and perhaps dangerous, times for brands in the UK."
So what made the other companies on the index so successful? Apple, Google and Amazon topped the ranking – but having been dissected aplenty, we hopped further down the top ten list to find out how other brands achieve relevance. Here's a hint: it's all about understanding your audience.
(1) PlayStation – A new audience each generation
Console providers have been locked in a battle for survival – this includes PlayStation. But let's say the company has how to achieve relevance down pat, having gone from PS1 to PS4. By far the best explanation of how it plans to stay current comes from Shuhei Yoshida, president of Sony's Worldwide Studios.
Speaking at 2015's Eurogamer event, he referenced industry analyst Michael Pachter, who claimed sales for consoles would drop after this generation. Of this, Yoshida said: "I feel we've been fighting against obsolesce. Even when PS4 is doing well, you might look at the sales and claim we may be just selling to the same people faster. That's a sad view of things, but it could be the case. We have to continue to work hard to really bring back people who used to play console games before PS2 era, or find new people to provide great experiences. We're hoping in the future people will pick up PlayStation VR and PS4 not only for the games, but for entertainment usage."
Essentially, it sums up the core of what makes PlayStation so successful. It doesn't only seek to lure previous gamers back to the market, it also attempts to grab a different kind of gaming audience each generation.
(2) Netflix – Moving into the original content market
To date, Netflix's offerings have been geared towards the adult audience. Of course, it's worked wonders, with Netflix truly knowing which content will please that particular age group. This ability has opened up new doors for the firm, aka moving into the original content market.
This healthy does of innovative thinking has also led Netflix to remain relevant in another space: the ever-increasing need teenagers have to consume media and literature. And while Childwise research claimed young people spending more time online than watching TV marked a "landscape change", Netflix proved to be the most popular "channel" choice.
This was seen through its release of Stranger Things – one of its few teenage offerings. Some 8,2m people were said to have watched it in its first 16 days. This puts it ahead of Netflix's original season one shows – think Daredevil, Jessica Jones, House of Cards and Narcos – all except Fuller House, according to ratings tracker SymphonyAM. That's well spotted, even if it was coincidental. By constantly innovating you'll eventually land on something that truly sets you apart and resonates with your consumers.
(3) Spotify – achieve relevance by bringing on the nifty tech offerings
That leads us straight to Spotify. In 2015, the firm announced how it planned to achieve relevance in the future amid increased competition from the likes of YouTube, Snapchat and Apple. This exact speech showed the world how it understood its audience.
Innovation was on the cards, starting with what CEO Daniel Ek named a "new Spotify experience". It tuned into the time of day and the weather forecast to deliver drop-down playlists such as "wake up happy" and "songs to sing in the shower".
"The more you use it, Spotify is going to remember what you did and and reflect it back to you," Ek explained – who doesn't love it when your music player offers up a new song it thinks you might like? He also tapped into the biggest segment of music listeners – runners. Spotify Running isn't only a series of playlists, but a tempo detector that uses a smartphone's sensors to detect a runner's pace and to play a song at that particular bpm.
The company has successfully used technology to increase its link with a certain target audience. But more importantly, it acknowledged that its audience was far larger than merely "those who liked music" and sought to cater to it.
(4) Disney – make moments
This gem of understanding was brought to us by Forbes. One Allen Adamson wrote an article about how Tom Boyles, senior vice president of global customer managed relationships at Disney Parks and Resorts, unveiled the firm's plan to achieve relevance in its parks. The symposium Boyles spoke at may have been in 2014, but the advice Adamson gleaned from him still remains relevant today.
"Disney's core promise, the idea on which it was launched, hasn't changed since Walt Disney made clear that it was to create happiness through magical experiences," said Adamson. "As Boyles told his audience, 'Disney Parks and Resorts exist to make magical experiences come alive.' It was what he said next, though, that was the key to this on-going success story. 'A good part of doing this is knowing your guest well enough to be relevant to them. In 2010, we set the goal to be relevant to every guest, every day, every time they interacted with our brand. We wanted to stay the most trusted provider in the space.'
"As Boyles went on to explain, understanding what is relevant to a guest can only be achieved if you listen to these guests. That's why, among the first things the Disney organisation did to meet its goal was to make the switch from what is commonly known as customer relationship management, to customer managed relationships. It put into place initiatives that put the guests in control of telling Disney what was important in a Disney experience. Doing so made it possible for the company to create solutions that would enable guests to optimise their personal Disney experience across multiple points of touch."

The NFL trade deadline is usually the most boring of all the major sports, but that wasn't the case this week. Some big trades not only changed the fortunes of some NFL teams, but the fantasy football landscape. Are your ready for the changes?
Could Impress: Brandon Lloyd. You don't buy a new toy just to sit and stare at it. Lloyd is familiar with Josh McDaniel's offense so it shouldn't take him long to get up to speed. Sam Bradford has never had a receiver with Lloyd's combination of size and speed. Even if Bradford can't go, I still like Lloyd's chances this week.
Could Disappoint: Vincent Jackson. He's just the latest fantasy receiver to take a tour of Revis Island. Considering the Jets have been porous in the run game, don't expect Philip Rivers to force it Jackson's way. Good for Ryan Mathews, bad for VJax.
Keep an eye on: Torrey Smith. He's got 4.3 speed and plays in an offense that loves to throw deep. He disappeared against the Jets, but many receivers do. Smith has good matchups four of the next five weeks and is available in more than 75-percent of leagues.
Injury Replacement: Darrius Heyward-Bey. Three straight games with more than 80 yards, Heyward-Bey will benefit from Palmer's cannon of an arm. The Raiders will do most of their damage on the ground on Sunday, but when they do pass, it'll be out of a play-action fake. That's generally good for deep threats like DHB.
Could Impress: Fred Davis. Chris Cooley will be out for a while, if not the season. I don't expect Mike Shannahan to put too much on the shoulders of new QB John Beck, so there could be a number of underneath passes headed Davis' way.
Could Disappoint: Jeremy Shockey. Washington is no slouch against the pass, and the Redskins pass rushers do a nice job of getting pressure on the quarterback. Shockey is second on the depth chart, and won't likely repeat his 4 catch, 60 yard performance from last week.
Keep an eye on: Kyle Rudolph. Listen, sometimes the best fantasy football moves are the ones that don't make a ton of sense at first. Christian Ponder is the new guy under center. The Vikings coaching staff will call a number of quick, controlled, high-percentage passes to help build Ponder's confidence. And in the "It Certainly Doesn't Hurt Department", Ponder and Rudolph are roommates and worked out together during the lockout. When things break down, who will have Ponder's confidence more than Rudolph?
Injury Replacement: Lance Kendricks. The rookie is starting to become a bigger part of the Rams' offense as they continue to find ways to get him into mismatches. St. Louis is going to be down against Dallas, and the Cowboys give up the 2nd most points to opposing tight ends, making Kendricks a good play.

Thomas Savery (; c. 1650 – 15 May 1715) was an English inventor and engineer. He invented the first commercially used steam-powered device, a steam pump which is often referred to as the "Savery engine". Savery's steam pump was a revolutionary method of pumping water, which solved the problem of mine drainage and made widespread public water supply practicable.

Career

Thomas Savery was born at the manor house of Shilstone, near Modbury, Devon. He became a military engineer, rising to the rank of captain by 1702, and spent his free time performing experiments in mechanics. In 1696 he took out a patent for a machine for polishing glass or marble and another for "rowing of ships with greater ease and expedition than hitherto been done by any other" which involved paddle-wheels driven by a capstan and which was dismissed by the Admiralty following a negative report by the Surveyor of the Navy, Edmund Dummer.

Savery also worked for the Sick and Hurt Commissioners, contracting the supply of medicines to the Navy Stock Company, which was connected with the Society of Apothecaries. His duties on their behalf took him to Dartmouth, Devon, which is probably how he came into contact with Thomas Newcomen.

Steam-powered pump

On 2 July 1698 Savery patented a steam-powered pump, "A new invention for raising of water and occasioning motion to all sorts of mill work by the impellent force of fire, which will be of great use and advantage for draining mines, serving towns with water, and for the working of all sorts of mills where they have not the benefit of water nor constant winds." It was referred to as the "Savery engine", although it is not technically an engine.  He demonstrated it to the Royal Society on 14 June 1699. The patent had no illustrations or even description, but in 1702 Savery described the machine in his book The Miner's Friend; or, An Engine to Raise Water by Fire, in which he claimed that it could pump water out of mines.

Savery's was a pistonless pump with no moving parts except from the taps. It was operated by first raising steam in the boiler; the steam was then admitted to one of the first working vessels, allowing it to blow out through a downpipe into the water that was to be raised. When the system was hot and therefore full of steam the tap between the boiler and the working vessel was shut, and if necessary the outside of the vessel was cooled. This made the steam inside it condense, creating a partial vacuum, and atmospheric pressure pushed water up the downpipe until the vessel was full. At this point the tap below the vessel was closed, and the tap between it and the up-pipe opened, and more steam was admitted from the boiler. As the steam pressure built up, it forced the water from the vessel up the up-pipe to the top of the mine.

However, his pump had four serious problems. First, every time water was admitted to the working vessel much of the heat was wasted in warming up the water that was being pumped. Second, the next stage of the process required high-pressure steam to force the water up, and the pump's soldered joints were barely capable of withstanding high pressure steam and needed frequent repair. Third, although this pump used positive steam pressure to push water up out (with no theoretical limit to the height to which water could be lifted by a single high-pressure pump) practical and safety considerations meant that in practice, to clear water from a deep mine would have needed a series of moderate-pressure pumps all the way from the bottom level to the surface. Fourth, water was pushed up into the pump only by atmospheric pressure (working against a condensed-steam 'vacuum'), so the pump had to be no more than about  above the water level – requiring it to be installed, operated, and maintained far down in the dark mines all over.

Fire Engine Act
Savery's original patent of July 1698 gave 14 years' protection; the next year, 1699, an Act of Parliament was passed which extended his protection for a further 21 years. This act "Encouraging Thomas Savery's invention for raising water and relating to all sorts of mill work" became known as the "Fire Engine Act". Savery's very broad patent covered all pumps that raised water by fire.

The architect James Smith of Whitehill acquired the rights to use Savery's pump in Scotland. In 1699, he entered into an agreement with the inventor, and in 1701 he secured a patent from the Parliament of Scotland, modelled on Savery's grant in England, and designed to run for the same period of time. Smith described the machine as "an engine or invention for raising of water and occasioning motion of mill-work by the force of fire", and he claimed to have modified it to pump from a depth of 14 fathoms, or 84 feet.

In England, Savery's patent meant that Thomas Newcomen was forced to go into partnership with him. By 1712, arrangements had been made between the two men to develop Newcomen's more advanced design of steam engine, which was marketed under Savery's patent, adding water tanks and pump rods so that deeper water mines could be accessed with steam power. Newcomen's engine worked purely by atmospheric pressure, thereby avoiding the dangers of high-pressure steam, and used the piston concept invented in 1690 by the Frenchman Denis Papin to produce the first steam engine capable of raising water from deep mines.

When Papin was back to London in 1707, he was asked by Isaac Newton, new President of the Royal Society after Robert Boyle, Papin's friend, to work with Savery, who worked for five years with Papin, but never gave any credit nor revenue to the French scientist.

After his death in 1715 Savery's patent and Act of Parliament became vested in a company, The Proprietors of the Invention for Raising Water by Fire. This company issued licences to others for the building and operation of Newcomen engines, charging as much as £420 per year patent royalties for the construction of steam engines. In one case a colliery paid the Proprietors £200 per year and half their net profits "in return for their services in keeping the engine going".

The Fire Engine Act did not expire until 1733, four years after the death of Newcomen.

Application of the steam pump
A newspaper in March 1702 announced that Savery's pumps were ready for use and might be seen on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons at his workhouse in Salisbury Court, London, over against the Old Playhouse.

One of his pumps was set up at York Buildings in London. According to later descriptions this produced steam 'eight or ten times stronger than common air' (i.e. 8–10 atmospheres), but blew open the joints of the machine, forcing him to solder the joints with spelter.

Another was built to control the water supply at Hampton Court, while another at Campden House in Kensington operated for 18 years.

A few Savery pumps were tried in mines, an unsuccessful attempt being made to use one to clear water from a pool called Broad Waters in Wednesbury (then in Staffordshire) and nearby coal mines. This had been covered by a sudden eruption of water some years before. However the pump could not be 'brought to answer'. The quantity of steam raised was so great as 'rent the whole machine to pieces'. The steam pump was laid aside, and the scheme for raising water was dropped as impracticable. This may have been in about 1705.

Another pump was proposed in 1706 by George Sparrow at Newbold near Chesterfield, where a landowner was having difficulty in obtaining the consent of his neighbours for a sough to drain his coal. Nothing came of this, perhaps due to the explosion of the Broad Waters pump. It is also possible that a steam pump was tried at Wheal Vor, a copper mine in Cornwall.

Comparison with Newcomen steam engine
The Savery steam pump was much lower in capital cost than the Newcomen steam engine, with a 2 to 4 horsepower Savery pump costing from 150-200 GBP. It was also available in small sizes, down to one horsepower. Newcomen steam engines were larger and much more expensive. The larger size was due to the fact that piston steam engines became very inefficient in small sizes, at least until around 1900 when 2 horsepower piston engines were available. Savery-type pumps continued to be produced well into the late 18th century.

Inspiration for later work
Several later pumping systems may be based on Savery's pump. For example, the twin-chamber pulsometer steam pump was a successful development of it.

A: In MySQL, you can use DATE_FORMAT()
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(colName, '%d-%m-%Y') formattedDate
FROM...
WHERE ...

Other Formats here
SQLFiddle Demo

A: There is no format():
$idate = strtotime($row['issue_date']); // assuming $row['issue_date'] is YYYY-MM-DD
$idate = date('d-m-Y', $idate);

A: You can do it directly in the database query like this using mysql date_format:
SELECT rfp_id, date_format(issue_date,'%d-%m-%Y') as issue_date... etc

A: try this
$idate = date('d-m-Y',strtotime($row['issue_date']));

A: Try this
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($data)){
      $rid = $row['rfp_id'];
      $idate = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($row['issue_date']));
      $status = $row['status'];

# inserts value into table as a hyperlink

This year, we had the opportunity to tell the story of Lonoke's current conversation by submitting an entry in the 2017 "I Look Up" Film Challenge. I am personally learning more about the intersection of the field of architecture and community development, in light of our experience together over the last year. Our film, entitled Cultivating Context hopes to tell that story. You can read more of how this film project came to be at the SCM Architects website linked here.
What gives a community the framework to evaluate future opportunities and discern the best ideas from the merely good, or mediocre ideas?
In the year 2016, the people of Lonoke engaged in a transparent, respectful conversation that included citizen voices from all parts of town, and all backgrounds.
Through this conversation, the people of Lonoke began to discover the reality of the community's context and geographic position.
In design, context is key. Particularly in architecture and the built environment, the surrounding elements inform the decisions that a designer must make with regards to size, scale, and proportion.
All of the elements that compose the design have a relationship to one another as parts of a whole, and to the surrounding context.
Lonoke is a study in juxtaposition, as a built object in a field of agriculture and aquaculture production.
The process of discovery also uncovered a key reality: that an Architect's role is not to be the expert with the answer.
Lonoke has taken a courageous step forward. Whereas, once we were a community seeking a clear path ahead, we are now a town with a vision.
In the metaphor of building, Lonoke has just finished "making the bricks." What the community will build with those bricks will be revealed as the ongoing work is undertaken in the coming months.
When Lonoke celebrates the 150th anniversary of its founding in 2022, a healthy, strong community will have begun to emerge.
Those within and around will look up and look at Lonoke with fresh perspective.
I am personally grateful to Evelyn, Chris, and Henry for giving their time and effort to creating something uniquely grown here in Lonoke, which the world will soon hear more about.
I am also thankful to my leaders at SCM for supporting our work here in Lonoke. We have only just begun the implementation process, but the Lonoke of 2022 will be the gratifying result of each of us leveraging our skill sets and roles to uplift our neighborhoods and our neighbors in pursuit of our common vision. I'm very excited about that prospect!
Here's the fun part – we get to vote for ourselves! Through October 6, 2017, you may visit the link below to view the film and vote in the "People's Choice" category (multiple votes are allowed, according to the rules of the competition). Let's vote for Lonoke and show how we are implementing our own Blueprint for Better!


ATLANTA -- Manager Andy Green and the Padres can pinpoint the exact moment the game fully turned in the Braves' favor in San Diego's 4-2 loss to Atlanta at SunTrust Park on Thursday night.
The moment in question came on a controversial call in the seventh inning. Braves catcher Tyler Flowers was ruled to have been hit by a Tyson Ross pitch on the hand to lead off the frame. The Padres challenged the call, but the ruling on the field stood, putting Flowers on first. A few batters later, Flowers scored on Ender Inciarte's groundout to first base, giving the Braves a 3-0 lead.
"Flowers said probably five times that he wasn't hit," Green said. "The replay said he wasn't hit. It's those moments as a manager that you aren't even sure why you have replay. It was blatantly obvious that it didn't hit him."
After the pitch, catcher A.J. Ellis said Flowers "instantaneously" said he was not hit by the pitch. After the game, however, Flowers said the pitch did hit something.
"I told [home-plate umpire Mark Ripperger] I didn't think it hit me," Flowers recalled. "The more I thought about it sitting there and then seeing the replay, I know it hit something. It might have been me. I wear so many guards and stuff, it might have nicked one of those."
Regardless of whether or not the pitch hit Flowers, the Padres believe the call altered the trajectory of the game.
"It changes the way we manage the bullpen. It changes the way we go after everything. That's frustrating," Green said. "It's frustrating for a team that didn't play very well but fought back at the end of the game to give us a chance."
Despite the call and the Braves' ensuing three-run lead, the Padres' offense wouldn't go quietly. San Diego answered with two runs in the top of the eighth on Eric Hosmer's hard ground ball down the right-field line with two outs.
Ross, the Padres' starter, was dealt the loss despite recording a quality start. The right-hander allowed three runs on three hits and a walk, with four K's, in his six innings of work.
With the loss, the Padres' streak of wins in Ross' starts came to an end. They had won six consecutive games in which Ross started, dating back to May 7.
Braves starter Anibal Sanchez kept the Padres off the scoreboard through seven innings, as they registered just four hits against him.
"We weren't able to muster much offensively," Green said. "It took us seven innings to really get going."
After the Padres cut the deficit to a run in the top of the 8th, the Braves were gifted again with two outs in the bottom of the frame. Flowers tapped a slow roller to Padres reliever Adam Cimber, who fielded the ball but made an errant throw to first, allowing Freddie Freeman to score a Braves insurance run.
The Braves first struck with two outs in the bottom of the third, when Ozzie Albies doubled to center to score Inciarte. Two innings later, Inciarte smacked a 1-0 cutter deep to right field for a solo home run.
The Padres' offense had a good opportunity to get on the board against Sanchez and the Braves in the top of the sixth, when they had runners on first and third with one out. But Sanchez induced consecutive infield popouts from Cory Spangenberg and Hosmer.
"We had the opportunity there with first and third and the heart of our order up," Green said, "[We] didn't cash in."
With Ross' walk of Albies in the bottom of the fifth inning, the Padres' three-game streak without surrendering a walk was snapped. The Padres went 32 consecutive innings without issuing a walk, tying a franchise record that had stood undisturbed since July 1971.
Clayton Richard follows up a superb outing in his last start with Friday night's bout vs. the Braves at SunTrust Park at 4:35 p.m. PT. The Padres' southpaw took a no-hitter into the seventh inning against the Marlins on Sunday. The Braves will counter with right-hander Brandon McCarthy, who has posted a 6.19 ERA in his past three starts.

Kaziranga National Park, which lies in the flood plains of the Brahmaputra River in Assam, is the single largest undisturbed and representative area in the Brahmaputra Valley floodplain. The fluctuations of the Brahmaputra River result in spectacular examples of riverine and fluvial processes in this vast area of wet alluvial tall grassland interspersed with numerous broad shallow pools fringed with reeds and patches of deciduous to semi-evergreen woodlands. Kaziranga is regarded as one of the finest wildlife refuges in the world. The park's contribution in saving the Indian one-horned rhinoceros from the brink of extinction at the turn of the 20th century to harbouring the single largest population of this species is a spectacular conservation achievement.
The Kaziranga National Park has often been compared to African parks because of the quality of wildlife viewing. On account of its large "big five mammals", Indian Rhinocerous, Asian Elephant, Wild Water Buffalo, Bengal Tiger and Swamp Deer populations, Kaziranga is often referred to as the 'Serengity of India'.
The riverine habitat is dominated by tall dense grasslands interspersed with tropical wet evergreen forests, tropical semi-evergreen forests, interconnecting streams and numerous small lakes or bheels with the Eastern Himalayas in the background.
Wildlife and Birdlife
The park hosts two-thirds of the world's great one-horned rhinoceroses. The tiger is prominent in the park's list of predators, which includes leopards and lesser predators like the fishing cat and hog badger. Primates found here are the capped langur and hoolock gibbon, while other mammals are the sloth bear, common Indian otter, wild boar, sambar, swamp deer, hog deer and Indian muntjac. The reptilian fauna includes the water and Bengal monitor, Indian python and the king cobra.
Kaziranga's rich avifauna makes it one of the most sought after birding destinations in the country. The marshes support many species of waterfowl and an elephant ride reveals grassland species such as globally threatened Bengal florican & swamp francolin. Six species of storks are found here which include the greater and lesser adjutant along with the huge black-necked stork. The woodland forests are home to blue-naped pitta, slender-billed and chestnut-capped babbler, fairy bluebird, puff-throated babblers, silver-breasted broadbill and flocks of spot-winged starling in winters. Tea plantations and adjoining scrub and cultivation can be explored for the siberian rubythroat, rufous-necked laughing thrush and thick-billed warbler. Raptors here include Pallas's and grey-headed fish eagles, changeable hawk, steppe, booted, eastern imperial eagles, pied harrier and up to seven species of vultures which include the critically endangered slender-billed, Indian and white-rumped.
