After getting his license earlier this year, Adam Willett researched his options.
Adam cut his premium by almost two-thirds by installing this little 'black box. It uses motion sensor to monitor his driving technique.
"Young Marmalade" offers young drivers cheaper premiums if they buy a new car from them and agree to have their driving monitored.
Nigel Lacy is a spokesman for the company.
Drivers are allowed one "red journey" a month. The next mistake will raise their premium by 250 pounds.
Driving information is sent back to the insurance company, but there's room for flexibility.
Britain's Office of Fair Trading is launching an investigation into the country's 12 billion pound car insurance market after premiums were found to have risen by as much as 40% over the last year.
The "black box" technology might eventually offer older drivers some financial relief, too.
But for now, young drivers are seizing the opportunity to turn a corner in their finances thanks to big brother watching them.
Bottom line: Drivers under the age of 25 trade privacy for thousands of pounds of savings with a car insurance scheme that takes advantage of "black box" technology.

Q: Spring Security and Thymeleaf with updated authentication During one session I change user role with:
Authentication newAuth = new  UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken(newUser.geteMail(), newUser.getPassword(), AuthorityUtils.createAuthorityList(newUser.getUserRole().name()));
        SecurityContextHolder.getContext().setAuthentication(newAuth);
        RequestContextHolder.currentRequestAttributes().setAttribute("SPRING_SECURITY_CONTEXT", newAuth, RequestAttributes.SCOPE_SESSION);

It changes in java code.
I'm trying to recieve user role in html using <span sec:authentication="principal.authorities"></span> , but get the following error after the code above:
org.springframework.web.util.NestedServletException: Request processing failed; nested exception is org.thymeleaf.exceptions.TemplateProcessingException: Error retrieving value for property "principal.authorities" of authentication object of class org.springframework.security.authentication.UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken (index:115)

I use Spring MVC 5 and thymeleaf-extras-springsecurity4. Without changing role during the session tags of extras work. How can the authentication be updated also in html?
Edit
I've tried to use thymeleaf-extras-springsecurity5 and got an alert with 'Bad credentials' when the page reloads after authentication update. In trace there are no errors now, but it shows the previous role. Also updated my code like this:
UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken newAuth = new  UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken(newUser.geteMail(), newUser.getPassword(), AuthorityUtils.createAuthorityList(newUser.getUserRole().name()));
Authentication auth = authenticationManager.authenticate(newAuth);

SecurityContext sc = SecurityContextHolder.getContext();
sc.setAuthentication(auth);
HttpSession session = req.getSession(true);
session.setAttribute(SPRING_SECURITY_CONTEXT_KEY, sc);

A: Try with this:
<span sec:authorize="isAuthenticated()" sec:authentication="principal.authorities">

Well Being Center - Laughter. Do it. Lots.
« Laughter. Do it. Lots.
Laughter. It really is the best medicine.
Almost instantaneously my mind flashes to those brilliant, bright explosions of light, sound and color. "Yeah," I think, "laughter is just like that; a spark, a tickle, a quick hit of heat, sound, and joy." And, in the nature of fireworks, it always manages to make us feel so, well, little-kid-good.
Why, do you suppose, that is?
Infants smile within days of being born and laugh out loud within weeks. Unsurprisingly, laughter is an intimate piece of every single language in the world. So what is it, exactly, about that lovely laugh?! How does the sheer act of smiling, of laughing aloud, make our bodies hum with yumminess and delight?
As it turns out, those thoughts lead to further sleuthing, and that sleuthing turned me onto tons of scientific, measurable and repeatable reasons we should all snort, snicker, chuckle and guffaw. Loudly. Often. With soulful and reckless abandon.
Scientific studies have shown that a mere two minutes after giving a good ol' guffaw, our levels of both cortisol and epinephrine (notorious stress chemicals responsible for suppressing the immune system, increasing fat storage, and sapping our energy) decrease by almost 15%!
2. Laughter lowers blood pressure!
Who knew a little joy could do so much?! (okay, okay, we at The Well Being Center did) The act of laughing (a little, or a lot) has a two-fold effect on your cardiovascular system (hooray for heart health!). One bout of laughter simultaneously decreases blood pressure AND increases blood flow.
Did you know that endorphins are a beautiful and brilliant way for your body to mitigate and manage pain? We naturally release these delicious chemicals while sleeping, exercising, and (you guessed it) laughing. Buy more chuckle-enducing comedies, and decrease your NSAID consumption! Win. Win.
4. Laughter melts away muscle tension!
Results in one scientific study showed our deepest levels of muscle tension and tone decreasing for up to forty-five minutes after letting loose a laugh or two. Feeling a little stiff? Sore? Stuck? Just sneak in a laugh or two.
5. Laughter is great exercise!
Want that svelte figure? Laugh you way into aerobic health! Although it may seem a bit surprising, it has been proven that laughing 100x will give you the same exercise impact as 10 minutes on a rowing machine, or 15 minutes on a stationary bicycle!!
So go ahead. Laugh more! Ignite those soul-full fireworks… and sit back and watch your stress, pain, and muscle tension just melt away. Now that's good medicine.


I've always loved the white & gold combination for home offices and when I finally got a space big enough to call my own, I knew EXACTLY how I wanted to decorate it.
When my grandma passed, I received a beautiful, ornate gold couch and chair set that I have always loved. I knew I wanted to incorporate it into my office, but the current furniture I had was just not workin' for me.
So, my designer friend happened to stumble across this beauty in an antique store and knew it'd be the perfect addition to my upgrade. I snatched it up!
Like I said, I've always wanted a gold & white (& pink) color scheme in my office, so we decided to paint the desk white to really get it to pop. It's original color was a distressed baby blue, which was pretty, but didn't really make sense in the space.
Mind you, this is my very first DIY project. I know it doesn't sound too intense - "painting a wood desk"- but if you know me, you know that my creativity comes in the form of words and not in the form of handy-work. I'm glad to say that this project did go better than planned, and I loved the way the desk turned out.
I headed over to Lowe's with J and gathered supplies. Thank goodness J has some sort of DIY knowledge because without him, I would have been roaming the aisles lost and confused.
Before painting, I sanded the entire desk (minus the top slab of wood) to get as much current paint off as possible.
After sanding, I took a wet cloth and wiped off the dust particles to make it a smooth surface to apply the paint.
Before painting, I placed painter's tape along the border / bottom of the desk top to prevent my newbie hand from accidentally painting the raw wood. I wanted to keep that feature the natural wood color.
Click here for a similar desk.
I applied the first coat of paint, let it sit for a few hours to dry, and then applied a second coat. Really, two coats was all this baby needed!
Doesn't she look great?! I'm so proud of how it turned out. I can't wait to do another project.

01/18/2019 - 2019 Baseball Factory All-America Pre-Season Rookie Tournament Ethan is a tall, solid 1B/LHP who has a promising future on the diamond. At 1B, he displays clean/smooth actions. Feet are active as he displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Glove action is soft/sure and presents well out front. Range will increase as he improves his foot quickness. At the plate he continues to shine through an athletic setup. Hands are quick (81 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields with gap-to-gap pop. Hitting abilities will continue to improve as he works to get his stride foot down sooner to work on time. On the mound, fastball showed a range of 70-74 mph with tailing action. Breaking ball displays 1/7 shape with late/sharp break. He maintains arm speed on his changeup and shows a solid feel for the pitch. Getting on a long toss program will help to increase arm strength which will aid in his development on the mound. With 3 years to further develop, Ethan has the makings of a special type player and will get looks from collegiate coaches as he continues to progress his game.

You need to be a member of FourSquare to add comments!
If you guys are interested, HICapacity will be having a FourSqure hackathan this Saturday. It starts 11am at The Box Jelly, Hawai'i's coworking space.
original. Of course this will count towards your score.
- Respect others during the hackathon. No sabotage!
FourSquare Cops - web parody of cops chasing people breaking FourSquare etiquette - like checking in when not actually at the place. I like the 'victim' in Episode 1: "He's trying to steal my mayorship - He's trying TO STEAL my MAYORSHIP!".
Quickie Review: FourSquare has influenced my purchasing decisions over the last 2 weeks, I got HotCakes at Liliha Bakery and the Opakapaka at Uncle Bo's. I even got a deal at one place. But as a competition for mayorships or points it doesn't seem to fit my personal style and I do end up worrying about "over sharing". Even though I guess it gives me a constant alibi. I will use it to post an occasional rave/vent, but I won't be checking in everywhere I go to earn points. Give me points based on how quality my tip is and decide Mayors from there and I think it's a more interesting concept.
Don't Sell Out, Foursquare. Not Now. Not To Yahoo.
Seems odd if the founder felt that Google did not properly care for his previous company, that Yahoo would do better.
I just joined Foursquare a couple of minutes ago and downloaded its android app to my phone.
Now I can explore Maui and share my experiences.
Realtime web is the hot new thing (twitter, oneriot, 4square, etc...), it's easy to be skeptical because it's so new, but in the long run with the proper adjustments this type of technology is a crucial step for the advancement of the web. So you can either sit back and be a critic, or jump in and establish an early niche for yourself.
In regards to foursquare vs gowalla, I haven't used gowalla yet but will definitely check it out. I looked at them a few weeks ago and found their website to be horrendous. Foursquare definitely has a big leg up on them though with the Microsoft contract (Bing!).
@Brian Gowalla certainly seems to be much nicer looking overall. Just can't get psyched up to check in with 2 apps everywhere I go. It would be great to see something _kinda like yelp_ but without the conflict-of-interest business model.
I used foursquare just b/c there was a native android client and gowalla did not have one (at the time). Still not sure what the benefits are but check-ins are almost a habit now.
It's a cool idea. I like foursquare.
Wish I had more time to spend money, go out, have fun and then write about it (whew!). Just got tired thinking about it.


Look how tall my cherry tomato is becoming. Its vines keep growing longer and longer while the older branches dry out. This is typical of tomato vines though. I just hope it doesn't reach the ceiling!
The basil is doing great by providing enormous flavor into our foods all the time. I had to transfer it to a larger pot with the help of my mother. Well she basically scolded me about suffocating the roots in the previous pot! And I really truly found this out when we took it out of the pot - there was only roots and hardly any soil. Now I know.
So I have six chili plants here all in one row. But look there is a rebel. Its trying to catch the cherry tomatoes. I have no idea whats up with it. But I get healthy chilis all the time! So I am not complaining.
These are new flower buds that my mother planted. She brought the seeds all the way from our village. Its supposed to bloom beautiful blood red flowers.
My herb planter is doing good. There are some spinach spontaneously growing in the middle. The last harvest of cilantro dried out. So we planted some more and you can see the sprouts all around.
My mini roses keep blooming to make me smile.
And my purple salad chilis makes me proud. They are definitely conversation starters.
This is the okra and its blooming and harvesting better than before because of two reasons. Thanks to my mother the plant whisperer - she carefully took out extra plants that she could decided would not grow any further. I don't know how she can tell. I apparently had too many plants in one pot. And we also bought some liquid potassium and have been feeding that with the water.
The same technique I mentioned for the okra was formulated for the lima beans and they have started growing at last. Well, they are Bangladeshi lima beans. Look how the vines wrapped themselves around the rail. Amazing!
We also took out some frail plants from the zucchini planter so the stronger plants could thrive. And so they are!
Here is the lemon tree growing bigger everyday. I get visitors that eat their leaves though! Remember my eggplant and jalapeno plants? Well, they were effected by tiny plant insects which hindered their growth. The eggplant had to go unfortunately but the jalapeno is recovering after my mother chopped it from the top. This was also done for my heirloom tomato since they were not producing. Lets wait and see!

Q: Format date in elasticsearch query (during retrieval) I have a elasticsearch index with a field "aDate" (and lot of other fields) with the following mapping
"aDate" : {
        "type" : "date",
        "format" : "date_optional_time"
}

When i query for a document i get a result like
"aDate" : 1421179734000,

I know this is the epoch, the internal java/elasticsearch date format, but i want to have a result like:
"aDate" : "2015-01-13T20:08:54",

I play around with scripting
{
 "query":{
   "match_all":{

   }
 },
 "script_fields":{
   "aDate":{
      "script":"if (!_source.aDate?.equals('null')) new java.text.SimpleDateFormat('yyyy-MM-dd\\'T\\'HH:mm:ss').format(new java.util.Date(_source.aDate));"
   }
 }
}

but it give strange results (script works basically, but aDate is the only field returned and _source is missing). This looks like
"hits": [{
        "_index": "idx1",
        "_type": "type2",
        "_id": "8770",
        "_score": 1.0,
        "fields": {
            "aDate": ["2015-01-12T17:15:47"]
        }
    },

I would prefer a solution without scripting if possible.

A: When you run a query in Elasticsearch you can request it to return the raw data, for example specifying fields:
curl -XGET http://localhost:9200/myindex/date-test/_search?pretty -d '
{
 "fields" : "aDate",
 "query":{
   "match_all":{

   }
 }
}'

Will give you the date in the format that you originally stored it:
{
  "_index" : "myindex",
  "_type" : "date-test",
  "_id" : "AUrlWNTAk1DYhbTcL2xO",
  "_score" : 1.0,
  "fields" : {
    "aDate" : [ "2015-01-13T20:08:56" ]
  }
}, {
  "_index" : "myindex",
  "_type" : "date-test",
  "_id" : "AUrlQnFgk1DYhbTcL2xM",
  "_score" : 1.0,
  "fields" : {
    "aDate" : [ 1421179734000 ]
  }

It's not possible to change the date format unless you use a script.
curl -XGET http://localhost:9200/myindex/date-test/_search?pretty -d '
{
 "query":{
   "match_all":{ }
 },
 "script_fields":{
   "aDate":{
      "script":"use( groovy.time.TimeCategory ) { new Date( doc[\"aDate\"].value )  }"
   }
 }
}'

Will return:
{
  "_index" : "myindex",
  "_type" : "date-test",
  "_id" : "AUrlWNTAk1DYhbTcL2xO",
  "_score" : 1.0,
  "fields" : {
    "aDate" : [ "2015-01-13T20:08:56.000Z" ]
  }
}, {
  "_index" : "myindex",
  "_type" : "date-test",
  "_id" : "AUrlQnFgk1DYhbTcL2xM",
  "_score" : 1.0,
  "fields" : {
    "aDate" : [ "2015-01-13T20:08:54.000Z" ]
  }
}

To apply a format, append it as follows:
"script":"use( groovy.time.TimeCategory ){ new Date( doc[\"aDate\"].value ).format(\"yyyy-MM-dd\")   }"

will return "aDate" : [ "2015-01-13" ]
To display the T, you'll need to use quotes but replace them with the Unicode equivalent:
"script":"use( groovy.time.TimeCategory ){ new Date( doc[\"aDate\"].value ).format(\"yyyy-MM-dd\u0027T\u0027HH:mm:ss\") }"

returns "aDate" : [ "2015-01-13T20:08:54" ]

To return script_fields and source
Use _source in your query to specify the fields you want to return:
curl -XGET http://localhost:9200/myindex/date-test/_search?pretty -d '
 {  "_source" : "name",
  "query":{
    "match_all":{ }
  },
  "script_fields":{
    "aDate":{
       "script":"use( groovy.time.TimeCategory ) { new Date( doc[\"aDate\"].value )  }"
    }
  }
 }'

Will return my name field:
"_source":{"name":"Terry"},
  "fields" : {
    "aDate" : [ "2015-01-13T20:08:56.000Z" ]
  }

Using asterisk will return all fields, e.g.:  "_source" : "*",
"_source":{"name":"Terry","aDate":1421179736000},
  "fields" : {
    "aDate" : [ "2015-01-13T20:08:56.000Z" ]
  }

A: Since 5.0.0, es use Painless as script language: link
Try this (work in 6.3.2)
"script":"doc['aDate'].value.toString('yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss')"

A: As LabOctoCat mentioned, Olly Cruickshank answer no longer works in elastic 2.2. I changed the script to:
"script":"new Date(doc['time'].value)"

You can format the date according to this.

A: Scripting it only computes the answer when the row is extracted.  This is expensive, and keeps you from using any date-related search functions in Elasticsearch.
You should create an elasticsearch "date" field before inserting it.  Looks like a java Date() object will do.

A: Thanks @Archon for your suggestion. I used your answer as a guide to remove the time element from a datetime field in Elasticsearch
{
    "aggs": {
        "grp_by_date": {
            "terms": {
                "size": 200,
                "script": "doc['TransactionReconciliationsCreated'].value.toString('yyyy-MM-dd')"
            }
        }
    }
}

A: If you use Elasticsearch 7, and want to display datetime in a specified timezone, you can request it like this
"query": {
    "bool": {
      "filter": [
        {
          "term": {
            "client": {
              "value": "iOS",
              "boost": 1
            }
          }
        }
      ],
      "adjust_pure_negative": true,
      "boost": 1
    }
  },
  "script_fields": {
    "time": {
      "script": "ZonedDateTime input = doc['time'].value; input = input.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of('Asia/Shanghai')); String output = input.format(DateTimeFormatter.ISO_ZONED_DATE_TIME); return output"
    }
  },
  "_source": true,

return
{
...
        "_source" : {
          ...
          "time" : 1632903354213
...
        },
        "fields" : {
          "time" : [
            "2021-09-29T16:15:54.213+08:00[Asia/Shanghai]"
          ]
        }
      },
...

2.2. Preparation of CuO NPs
About 50 mL of fresh Coleus aromaticus leaf extract was added to
10 mL of 0.01 M CuSO4 aqueous solution and mixed well by manual shaking. The reaction mixture was then heated for 30 min at 90 °C in a temperature controlled water bath. A visual color change in the reac-tion solution, from dirty yellow to brown, was observed after 10 min indicating the formation of CuO NPs.
2.3. In-vitro cytotoxicity and MTT assay
The in-vitro cytotoxicity of the synthesized CuO NPs was studied by investigating the cell viability of A549 cell lines. Cell viability was determined after incubation of A549 ABT-263 with CuO NPs at concentra-tions of 0.05 mg mL−1, 0.1 mg mL−1 and 0.2 mg mL−1 in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM). A control experiment was also performed without the addition of CuO NPs in a complete growth culture medium. Cell viability was determined using the MTT reduction test. The MTT test was carried out in a 96-well plate following a stan-dard experimental procedure with slight modifications. Initially, the cells were seeded in a 96-well plate at a concentration of 1 × 104 cells/ well, followed by incubation for about 24 h at 37 °C. The medium was then discarded and a new medium containing NPs was added to each well and incubated at 37 °C for 24 h. The medium in all wells was then discarded again, followed by the addition of 10 μL of MTT (5 mg mL−1 in phosphate-buffered saline [PBS]) solution and 90 μL medium into each well. The medium in the wells was removed after incubation at 37C for 4 h, followed by the addition of 100 μL DMSO containing so-luble formazan crystals. The solutions were then allowed to rest at room temperature for 15 min. The optical absorbance of the solutions was measured at 560 nm using an ELISA plate reader. Cell viability was expressed as a percentage relative to the optical absorbance of the control.
2.4. Conjugation of aptamer to biofabricated CuO NPs
About 50 μL of CuO NPs (10 μg/mL in DNase/RNase-free water) was added to EDC (40 mM, 100 μL) and NHS (10 mM, 100 μL) followed by stirring for 15 min, resulting in the activation of the carboxyl groups of CuO NPs for conjugation of the aptamer. Then, about 50 μL of aptamer in DNase, RNAse-free water (1 μg/mL) was mixed with the NP solution and stirred gently at room temperature for 2 h. The subsequent solution was centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 5 min to remove unreacted N-hydro-xysuccinamide (NHS) and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbo-diimide hydrochloride (EDC). The obtained aptamer-conjugated NPs  Materials Science & Engineering C 97 (2019) 827–832
Fig. 1. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of biosynthesized copper oxide nano-particles (CuO NPs).
2.5. In-vitro miRNA release study
The study of in-vitro miRNA release from aptamer-conjugated CuO NPs was conducted at various pH values (5, 6.6 and 7.4). About 3 mg of aptamer-conjugated CuO NPs were dispersed in 0.5 mL of buffer and dialyzed using a tightly secured tubular cellulose dialysis membrane, followed by incubation in a 5 mL buffer solution at 37 °C during agi-tation. The quantity of miRNAs released (percentage cumulative re-lease) at different time intervals was measured using ion-pair high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
A Waters 2695 separation module combined with an HPLC system (Waters, Milford, MA, USA) containing a Waters 2998 photodiode array detector was used for quantification of released miRNA. A 3 μm Oligo-RP Phenomenex column (50 × 2.0 mm; Phenomenex, Torrance, CA, USA) was used for sample separation. The mobile phase was prepared using an acetonitrile (5%–12%) and 20 mM triethylamine–acetic acid (pH 7) gradient elution. Samples for HPLC analysis were prepared by mixing 1 μL of miRNA with the mobile phase. The measurements were performed at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min and the optical absorbance was measured at 269 nm.
2.7. Fluorescence microscopy
Lung cancer (A549) cells were initially seeded at a concentration of 2 × 104 per well and incubated for about 48 h. After incubation, the cells were washed with PBS followed by incubation with fluorescein isothiocyanate-mucin 1 (FITC-MUC1) aptamer-conjugated miRNA-29b-loaded CuO NPs in medium, at a density of 100 μg/mL for 2 to 4 h. Then, the obtained cells were washed twice with PBS, and 2% paraf-ormaldehyde was added followed by incubation for 20 min at room temperature. The cells were then blocked with 5% bovine serum al-bumin (BSA) for 30 min and stained with either WGA-AF-555 or LysoTracker-Red, before staining with DAPI for nucleus visualization.
A concentration of about 1 million A549 cells/well was placed in a six-well plate followed by incubation for about 48 h. The cells were then exposed to siGLO-FAM-loaded equivalent NPs (100 μg/mL) i n Opti-MEM medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) followed by incubation for about 4 h. The resulting cells were then pretreated with free MUC1 aptamer, followed by treatment with

Hi, i'm looking into buying another pc (the other one is beginning to get outdated). And after some time looking i quickly realised that a used pc can save you hundreds of dollars, but there must be some kind of downside buying a used one. Do you guys have any tips or things i should keep in mind when buying a used?
Beware of used hard drives (unless you can check its state e.g. using Crystal Disk Info), and mechanical parts in general (like coolers). The perfect situation would be if you woulds be able to perform mem test and stress test of PC. IMHO buying used CPUs, motherboards (take a look at capacitors!), RAM and GPUs is not so risky like buying used SSDs/HDDs, coolers, keyboards or mouses.
so i don't have to think about the ssd not working?
I advise against buying used SSDs.
Because of warranty conditions. They usually refer to TBW parameter (see this or this or SMART attribute E9). In general - if you are not sure about usage history of the SSD/HDD you are going to buy - better don't buy it. Unless you have quite good understanding of the tool like Crystal Disk Info to check disks. If the disk was If the disc has been used extensively (many write operations), it can die in a few months.
Can be but not usually, most used parts are put through some kind of stress test, before they are even bought by the person selling the used product.

Sunday's top NFL game: New York Giants take down Chicago Bears in overtime
December 2, 2018 detroitnews Leave a Comment
Tom Canavan Associated Press Published 7:30 PM EST Dec 2, 2018 East Rutherford, N.J. — The New York Giants finally have a signature win to carry them through the rest of the season and maybe beyond. While beating the NFC North-leading Bears wasn't pretty and involved blowing up a 10-point lead in the final 1:13, the Giants showed character in a wild game in the rain highlighted by trick plays — and a reminder of William "The Fridge" Perry. The Giants (4-8) won for seventh time in 28 games over the past two seasons as Aldrick Rosas kicked a 44-yard field goal in overtime in a 30-27 win Sunday, snapping the Bears' five-game winning streak. "The takeaway is, and I told the team this, some people are fond of talented people, some people are fond of smart people. I'm fond of tough, resilient people," Giants coach Pat Shurmur said.

I visited a secluded park on top of a garage in downtown Manhattan, and it's clear why the hideaway is one of New York's best-kept secrets
Mark Abadi, provided by Published 6:10 am PST, Monday, November 19, 2018 Mark Abadi/Business Insider Elevated Acre is a tiny, secluded park that sits on top of a parking garage in downtown Manhattan. Although the park covers just one acre, it offers incredible views of New York Harbor and the Brooklyn Bridge, and it's one of the few places in the Financial District where you can get some peace and quiet. I visited Elevated Acre and discovered exactly why it's considered one of New York's best-kept secrets. New York City is notoriously overcrowded — and there's arguably nowhere in the city more congested than downtown Manhattan during business hours. Business Insider's office is right in the thick of it, located in Manhattan's Financial District, just steps away from Wall Street and the World Trade Center.

The biggest concern that teams have mentioned is that someone can find out who runs an outreach Facebook page. As of right now, there is no way for an outsider to see what individuals run a page. While there is always the possibility of a "rogue" Facebook employee who leaks information, it seems to be a very unlikely event with a low probability.
The chance though of multiple accounts owned by one person, of impersonating another person, or breaking other terms of service being caught and a page being banned is beginning to grow.
Facebook's policy does not allow a person to have more than one personal account. Using a fake name, or multiple accounts with multiple email addresses goes against their terms of service. While it does not seem that it has been enforced much in the past, in recent months there have been several recorded instances of Facebook closing accounts or telling people to merge their accounts.
When a person logs in to Facebook (even when using a VPN), Facebook can see the IP address and general geolocation of the user. If using a VPN it will show the IP and location that the VPN is using. When one team uses one account to do their Facebook work, then Facebook sees that multiple locations are logging in to the same account. If you ever travel for your ministry and log in to Facebook while someone else on your team is logged in from a different location, then you can see how this can be an issue. In light of recent scandals and hacks, Facebook is beginning to take notice of unusual activity like this.
If you want to prevent getting locked out of your Facebook account and having your page shut down, then use your personal Facebook accounts. Below are ways to better secure your account and page.
Not everyone on your team needs to be an admin. Consider using different "Page Roles" for different users on the page. These can be adjusted within the Settings area of the page.
These are always changing so it is smart to make sure that you are current on their guidelines. If your page is keeping within Facebook's guidelines, then you stand very little risk of being banned or the page being deleted. Even if you are doing religious ads, there are ways to do it that does not go against Facebook's policies and will allow your ads to be approved.
Facebook has created a dedicated section for privacy settings (even when using mobile) that has shortcuts to review your settings, manage locations settings, control facial recognition, and determine who can see your posts. Check your personal settings to make sure things are set correctly.
There are many VPN services out there. Find one that works best for you.
While not every risk can be eliminated, following Facebook's security recommendations, using a VPN, and staying within Facebook's Terms of Service are a great way to start. Each team must determine their practice, but it may be in light of recent Facebook crackdowns that not using a fake profile nor a Digital Hero may be necessary.
What are your thoughts? What questions do you have? Just comment below.
4 responses on "An Argument Against a Digital Hero"
Great input. What specific instances are you referring to when Facebook has released admin identities to governments against religious ads that do not go against Facebook's term of service? I'm unaware of any documented cases, but I may be mistaken. Several current instances where governments are against certain ads (deemed against the government views, i.e. Russia) Facebook has not relented. This is one reason why they are not in China yet as well.And yes, it is possible to run religious-themed ads that do not go against Facebook's terms of service.
In instances where crimes have been committed, search warrants have been issued, etc., then I would guess that Facebook (and all other social media channels) will comply. In that instance then, the grandma of a worker whose identity is being used as a "digital hero" will be implicated.
There are though specific laws even within the U.S. (for example California) which makes it illegal to use someone else's identity on social media. While this is mainly intended to stop bullying, the law still applies.
There is also the issue of people's use of Google services (ads or other products) that also make it very hard for a person to truly remain invisible to the provider (i.e. Google) or a government if they truly want to find who a person or groups of people are. There are many areas where just one security slip or oversight will make a person or team visible.
In the end, each person and team needs to balance the risks, and follow the best-known security practices both online and offline trusting and knowing that their ultimate security is in the Lord.
Thanks again for the comment! Blessings to you and yours.
This short (less than 5 min) video illustrates that FB cannot be trusted now that they own WhatsApp.
Any government wanting any info from FB will surely get it from FB.
Thanks for the video. After watching it, what was evident was that a potential felony offense (threating violence to a political figure in the US) was viewed and followed up on by the Secret Service. There is no evidence that Facebook gave up the person's information. In addition, this was an individual (not a page with admins), and there are many ways that the US government can (and does) monitor social media posts for potential threats. Some of those methods are even documented online.
It is important to see what potential risks there are in all places and avenues that we operate in sharing the Gospel, and one of those is doing things that may get a page banned not for being overtly Christian, but instead for not following terms of service.
I (Jon) have still not seen any evidence of Facebook giving up group Admin identities, but I have already seen instances where good pages and people are being stopped from using certain social media channels because of impersonation and breaking terms of service. Regardless, it is important for each page and user to follow good security practices and know the risks regardless of whether they use a "digital hero" or not.
Thanks again for your comment and work for the Lord!

Q: Why is the 'Date' not append into the ?
I am using bootstrap DateTimePicker, as you can see, the 'Start Date' is able to append the text into the
 in #shadow-root but the 'Expiry Date' is unable to do so. The 'Start Date' is able to append automatically after the page load, how can I append the Expiry Date into the
 like 'Start Date' ? Codes below are the code for the datetimepicker.

                        Start Date :

                                <input type="text" name="start_date" class="form-control"
                                       value="{{date('d-m-Y H:i:s', strtotime($voucher->start_date))}}"
                                       placeholder="Select a Start Date"/>

                        Expiry Date :

                                <input type="text" name="expiry_date" class="form-control"
                                       value="{{date('d-m-Y H:i:s', strtotime($voucher->expiry_date))}}"
                                       placeholder="Select an Expiry Date"/>

A: Nvm lol, I just realized the format that I've given is not the same as required in bootstrap.js

Future brighter for San Mateo Madoff victim
MOST POPULAR: Video, stories and more
SIGN-UP: Get breaking news sent to you from ABC7 News
The Norman Bernie Fabric Company, next to Highway 101 in San Mateo, has been in business for more than 50 years, but for the past six months it appeared it wouldn't make it to 51. Now, the future seems a bit brighter, while the anger at Bernie Madoff is burning brighter.
"I would say things have been downscaled from red alert to orange alert. Things are still precarious," said Cliff Bernie.
Bernie's parents invested $200,000 with Madoff 20 years ago and watched it supposedly grow to $1.7 million. Then on December 11th of last year, Bernie and his family found out it was all gone.
Bernief has one question for Madoff:
"What were you thinking? Clearly I would like to know what goes on in the mind of a sociopath. See if I can get some kind of a cogent answer. But I doubt I could, there wouldn't be anything coming out him other then B.S.," he said.
Shortly after finding out he was out his life's savings, Bernie laid off a man who had worked at his business for 30 years and was prepared to sell the 50-year-old family business.
"It's my only source of income, obviously because the investment I had from Madoff is gone and we are waiting for recourse," said Bernie.
All is not necessarily lost forever for him. He and many other investors can look at a maximum of $500,000 from the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, or SIPC, which has already committed about $100 million to victims of Madoff's scam. He can also seek relief on taxes he's paid on what turned out to be non-existent dividends and from the sale of Madoff's assets.
Bernie feels there are others who should also be paying for this crime.
"People just wonder howcome it's only Madoff who has fallen on his sword; there are other family members who must have known about it, there are employees who must have known about it, what about SEC people who lacked accountability and due diligence," he said.
If you qualify to file with the SIPC for some of that money, the deadline is Thursday.
Bernie's reaction to the sentencing was that he wishes Madoff was younger so that he could spend more time in prison.

Seems like auction madness strikes again. Not only 35k for a SWB (VAT, tax and premium on top?), but - £3k for a 205 thats worth about £100?!
Wink, wink, "…it was ex speshul forces, innit…" wink, wink.
They're not interested because the business case doesn't stack up. The development costs are vs market vs market appetite for price doesn't work. And even if it did, the opportunity cost of developing a compliant niche vehicle doesn't stack up against another sports SUV.
If anyone is going to make it happen it will be JLR. But it is in the queue behind the Velar, E-Pace, I-Pace and J-Pace all of which will give them bigger margins.
Well, don't tell this bloke . . . .
" The chemicals group Ineos has insisted its plan to build an off-road vehicle to succeed the Land Rover Defender is not a vanity project driven by its billionaire founder and chairman Jim Ratcliffe.
Ineos will set up a new division, Ineos Automotive, and expects to spend "many hundreds of millions" on developing a 4x4 vehicle that could fill the gap in the market left by the Defender, which has been discontinued by Jaguar Land Rover.
The company is focused on manufacturing and distributing chemicals, oil and gas, but Ratcliffe is a self-confessed admirer of the Defender.
Ineos wants to sell the vehicle for less than £50,000 and will aim it at farmers, foresters, explorers and enthusiasts. The company is looking to manufacture the off-roader in the UK – although it is also considering options in Europe – with the first cars potentially available from 2020. Ineos Automotive could employ up to 1,000 people if the venture is successful ".
When this was first muted Jaguar Land Rover stated that they would take any company to court if they tried to copy the Defender in any way.
When I read this I thought that JLR had a plan to produce the Defender in India where labour costs are lower and there are less rules on safety and environmental issues.
If Ineos want to make a 4 X 4 they are going to need to ensure it doesn't look anything like a Defender.
That sort of thing ******* snaps me. "We're not playing any more, so no one else is allowed to either."
The satisfaction from his day's work comes from getting the radios working. He's the essence of unquestioning dependability.
Many start ups have come and gone over the years hoping to build a 'new' Landroiver.
They all face one huge uphill battle. The world is full of Toyota, Mitsubishi and Nissan factories and dealers selling cheap and durable pickups and crew cabs already.
IIRC JLR binned the India idea pretty quickly, not least because the ethics of building a vehicle no longer deemed safe by European regulation to sell in India are somewhat questionable.
VW canned Beetle and Combivan production in Mexico for the same reason.
I thinK Jeep would have had a strong case against LR back in the late forties and early fifties'.
We'll you can't do much worse than us. When the NZDF replaced our V8 Land Rover we got 6X6 Pinzgauers. Only regional users of it and only international users of that particular set up......What could go wrong? Its not like the maker would stop making them and international parts and support would dry up....Oh wait.
6x6 versions only, 2.5L Turbo diesel with an automatic transmission.
All about the lifting capacity of the helicopters of the time, I was told. Same later with Lightweight Landrovers.
Indeed; 1500lb possible under a Whirlwind over a short range on a good day. 2CV Camionette seems to have been about 1300lb empty.
Slight thread resurrection but here goes.
I am currently out in Oman on Ex SAIF SAREEA 3, having been on SAIF SAREEA 2 back in 2001. Back then, the Sultan's Armed Forces had a wide selection of Land Rovers in service, mostly Series 3s and Defenders and generally petrol-powered. Fast forward 17 years and SAF have completely re-equipped with a variety of Toyota Land Cruisers in the pax, recce and WMIK roles, and Hilux crewcabs/pick-ups in the TUL/TUM role. Other than the stripped down "pinkie" type wagons, most seem to be reasonable civvy spec just painted sand colour. I have yet to see a military Land Rover and UK forces have rented a fleet of Toyotas as run-arounds. The (sensible, so unachievable) future is Japanese once the Wolf dies.
That's the badger! The RAFO TACPs here have got a car park full of them.


Whether you found an elegant antique at a thrift store or have a family heirloom in need of sprucing up, working with a craftsman that does furniture refinishing in Atlanta, GA may be the best choice for you. Older pieces can offer superior craftsmanship and time-honored style, so restoring wooden furniture can be worthwhile, especially if you've got a piece with a good frame. You'll want to make sure any project honors the look of your antique and will last for years to come, so finding a skilled Atlanta, GA wood refinishing professional can be a wise investment.
When you come across a piece that looks a bit weathered and rough, it can be difficult to know how much it can be fixed up. If an antique is unpainted, has a strong, solid frame and was made sometime prior to the 1950s, it's likely of good quality and simply needs a little care. Paint jobs can hide nicks and stains, but if the piece just looks a little faded and worn, a craftsman skilled in refinishing furniture in Atlanta, GA will be able to make it look brand new again. Essentially, the best candidates for antique furniture restoration are of an older construction, before manufactured materials and lesser craftsmanship filtered into the market. You should also take into account the difference in color before and after a project. A pro experienced in refinishing wood furniture will be able to explain how different woods will look. If you're still unsure how realistic a project will be, an Atlanta, GA furniture refinishing professional can offer expert guidance.
When you contact a local furniture restoration company in Atlanta, GA, they'll evaluate your piece's condition, wood type and what look you hope to achieve. The first step in the process is stripping and sanding your piece before applying a new varnish. While this is a time-consuming and meticulous task, experienced Atlanta, GA furniture refinishers should be able to complete the job with precision and care. A pro can also work to repair small dents, cracks or stains. Finally, the contractor will apply lacquer for a durable finish, and work with you to choose a stain that will be fitting for the piece. When considering different finishes, take into account how your refinished furniture will blend with the rest of your decor, and how true you hope to stay to the original look. The price and timeline for different projects, like refinishing a table or a chair, can vary depending on the piece and how much work needs to be done. But an Atlanta, GA furniture restorer will be able to give you an estimate ahead of time.
