The edit history function has been temporarily disabled, so we won't be able to see a poster's previous edits.
I can see its use for the poster, but does everyone really need to see other posters' edits?
Agree. As I hit 'reply' and at that very moment see that autocorrect has changed what I thought I'd written, I groan that the edit history will make it look as if I'd changed my position rather than just my spelling or punctuation.
My position on this issue has been from the "get go" that it is a function unnecessary.
There are other functions that the software developers should be concentrating on .... but they probably won't.
I agree: chau edit history!
I'm glad we're in unison here as I never needed to see how many times a post was edited or for that matter, to see the previous edits.

Kannah Creek Brewing Co.
Founded in 2005 in an existing restaurant, Kannah Creek Brewing Co. has since proven its market appeal and built from scratch a $4.2 million production facility called Edgewater Brewery with a second restaurant on the banks of the Colorado River. With the area being what owner and Head Brewer Jim Jeffryes calls an "outdoor paradise" – mountain biking, fishing, rafting and hiking abound in the summer and downhill and cross-country skiiing and snowboarding in the winter – Kannah Creek Brewing is the latest entrant in Grand Junction, Colo.'s populated craft brewing scene.
Rockslide Brewing was the first brewpub in Grand Junction in 1994. "They broke ground for us in Grand Junction," Jeffryes says. With seemingly every little mountain town having at least one brewpub, the market in Grand Junction – even with Breckenridge Brewing's Ale House in town – is hardly saturated, Jeffryes maintains.
"In our local area and most all of Colorado, it is a more-the-merrier situation," he insists. "All of us brewers and owners get along very well. I think competition in the beer world is all about taste and flavor and not so much about being competitive. Our market is more geared to people who want more flavor and maybe not as much quantity. They're willing to pay an extra buck or two to get that different-flavored beer."
Kannah Creek's on-tap flavors include a blonde, hefeweizen, amber, pale ale, India pale ale, porter and stout. Seasonal selections include cask and barrel-aged ales, as well as an Irish, Scottish, red and brown ales, a kolsch, Maibock, extra special bitter, pilsner, cranberry saison and lagers. New seasonal creations are on tap every few weeks. Several of the beers have won bronze, silver and gold awards from the Great American Beer Festival and the World Beer Cup.
Both locations serve most of the brews unless shortages develop. The menus vary between the two restaurants. "We do mostly pizza, pasta, salads and sandwiches at the original, and at the new place, we had so many requests to provide hamburgers that we designed a kitchen that would do hamburgers, hot dogs, sandwiches and a little more typical pub food," Jeffryes says. "We try not to compete with each other as far as selling the food."
Kannah Creek Brewing produced approximately 2,000 barrels of its beers last year, of which approximately half was consumed at the company's two brewpubs and the rest distributed in kegs to other bars or sold to consumers in 220,000 bottles. "We need to get to 6,000 barrels a year of production by this time next year, and then by the end of 2015, 10,000 barrels," Jeffryes resolves. "We have our work cut out for us; that's a tall order. It's a break-even number we're trying to get to and then have a reasonable return on investment. For that, the 2015 number of 10,000 barrels should have a 5 percent net profit."
So far, Kannah Creek Brewing has bottled its Standing Wave Pale Ale, Lands End Amber and Crossed Irons Irish ale, and plans to bottle its Broken Oar IPA and blond ale in its 14,400-square-foot Edgewater facility. The most difficult thing about bottling a beer is the label, Jeffryes maintains. "Arranging the artwork and packaging is quite a big job," he insists. "It takes a lot of effort, and nobody can really agree on the artwork all the time. So we go back and forth and tweak things until we like it."
What's on a Label?
Label approval from the federal Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau can take up to 90 days, with state approvals usually requiring approximately a month. Kannah Creek beers are licensed in Colorado, Nebraska and Illinois, because a beer-of-the-month club located in Illinois will distribute 3,000 cases of a Kannah Creek brew nationally in April.
"We're trying to grow a little bit and get name recognition," Jeffryes says. "The beer-of-the-month club will help that way. We're also going to enter our beers in the World Beer Cup competition in the spring and get some good results from that."
Jeffryes was educated as an engineer and worked in California for semiconductor manufacturers before he was introduced to home brewing. "Our particular yeast strain gives us a unique flavor," he says. "I think that just by adhering to very stringent brewing practices, we're able to make a pretty high-quality beer that people enjoy."

A new display case featuring material about the Mesolithic site of Star Carr is due to go on public display in February 2016 at Scarborough's famous Rotunda Museum. The artefacts will be all existing material from the Scarborough Collections which have been out of the public gaze in the storerooms in recent years. They will give a glimpse into the life of hunter gatherer humans in the Vale of Pickering. The Rotunda, designed by 'Father of English Geology' William Smith is looked after by Scarborough Museums Trust. The welcome return of a public Star Carr display at The Rotunda will enable some of the remarkably preserved 10 000 year old animal bone and plant remains from Star Carr to be inspected by the public at large. We look forward to the opening of the new exhibit.
Recent material, including that from the last digs at Star Carr in Summer 2015 is being conserved and analysed in York, where there is access to specialist facilities and techniques demanded by the much more degraded and fragile recent finds.
Full of fascinating objects, the Rotunda Museum is home to Gristhorpe Man, a unique Bronze Age skeleton found near Scarborough buried in a tree trunk, the best example of a tree burial in the UK. There is also the Speeton Plesiosaur, a fantastic marine reptile from the Cretaceous period, found near Filey. The most important prehistoric artefacts are the bone and vegetable items from the Star Carr and Flixton Carr sites. Scarborough has one of the 21 red deer frontlets excavated at Star Carr in the 1950s by John Clarke which have been dated to c.8000 BC.

North Canton Elementary Math Coach Finds Ways to Make Math Stick
North Canton Elem...
Jill Mann, Math Coach at North Canton Elementary School, will do whatever it takes to help students learn math. From incorporating literature into the lesson plan, to using hands-on manipulatives, she goes the extra step to ensure their success.
The 1999 Haywood Community College Associate in Arts graduate became Math Coach at the school as the result of receiving two significant awards recently. Mann was recognized as the 2007 Haywood County Schools Elementary Teacher of the Year by the Council for Teachers of Mathematics and North Canton Elementary's Teacher of the Year for 2007-2008.
"These awards are a testament of her ability," says North Canton Principal Joshua Morgan. "She is a total asset to us and now she is able to spread her math knowledge across the school."
After finishing her degree at HCC, Mann continued her education at Western Carolina University with a degree in Elementary Education in 2001. She will finish requirements for a Master's degree next year from Appalachian State University in Library Science.
In addition to North Canton, Mann has also taught at Riverbend and Clyde Elementary. But North Canton feels like home to her and has reduced her drive time. She lives in the North Hominy Community with her husband Steve and children Molly and Jody. Her family raises beef cattle and she enjoys camping and going to garage sales.
Mann says she chose to start her higher education at HCC because it is close to home and tuition is much less. "By starting out at HCC, it helped prepare me for a four-year school. The smaller class sizes and one-on-one interaction with instructors got me ready for the larger setting."
Mann believes a successful math teacher must build on the foundations of math every day. "Students must see why something works then they will understand it and it sticks with them," Mann says. "I like to give them something they can touch and feel such as place value blocks."
Another trick that sticks is incorporating books such as How Big is a Foot? . "After we read that book, we think of all the things that are about the size of a foot and it stays with them."
One thing Mann loves each year is Teacher Appreciation Week. "When you get cards from middle and high school students, you know you've made a difference. I like to think I might have taught them something that no one else has."
As Math Coach, Mann co-teaches with all the teachers in the entire school. She develops lesson plans, gives kids that need extra help individual or small-group attention, and designs practice tests for the 9-week and 18-week marks.
"Although I miss being in the classroom all the time, I know I am now able to help both students and teachers with this position," Mann explains. "I love to teach. Whether I am dancing on the table because they get it or I am banging my head on the board because they don't, I love these kids and I was meant to be a teacher."

He was stationed in Iran and Germany. He was recognized for creating a system to assemble rifles together in a faster and more efficient way and trained other soldiers by using the new system. After the Army, Wally worked at Kolbe & Kolbe, SNE, Fleet Farm and Wausau Builders before becoming self-employed for WallyWorld Windows. He built, delivered and installed windows with a smile on his face and heart for his customers.
Wally carried on his love of baseball from childhood on to adulthood. He tried out for the St. Louis Cardinals, however, didn't make the team due to his defense. He played fast pitch softball before playing slow pitch softball for St. Mark's Lutheran Church. Along with playing, he was an umpire for several years during the 1980s. Family trips consisted of traveling to Milwaukee to watch his favorite team, the Brewers.

He took pride in working to provide for his family in any way they needed. Growing up, his siblings and him delivered papers for Route 53 for the Record-Herald. They boasted that they "never failed their customers." This was something that Wally continued throughout his life at work and in service. He served his church, St. Mark's Lutheran, with faithfulness and joy by serving on ministry committees, ushering and taped services for the public.
He continued to be loyal to his country by being a member of the Man of Honor and went on the Never Forgotten Honor Flight.
He is survived by his wife, Lila (Vetterkind) Gwidt of 58 years, daughters Wanda (Thomas) Woehlert, Gwen (Jae) Loiz and son, Terry (Tracy) Gwidt.

The kids his wife babysat for after retirement loved their "Grandpa Louie."

Q: jQuery AJAX request to fetch HTML is not working I am learning jQuery and REST webservices. Below code returns the HTML response from rest webservice which I have creates using rest jersey.
@Path("/hello")
public class HelloWorldService {
    @GET
    @Produces("text/html")
    public String getClichedMessage() {
        return "
Hello Jersey
";
    }
}

When I hit the URL in the browser it gives me the below result as expected:

Hello Jersey

Now, I want to consume the same HTMl response in my jquery, but I am not getting the expected result.
The alert shows me error status. Please see the jquery code, please help me resolve.
<!DOCTYPE html>

Let jQuery AJAX Change This Text

<button>Get External Content</button>

A: It is quite possible that the URL you are calling is incorrect.
your url ends with rest/hello/ the last / makes this a different url to rest/hello so the route won't be found.
Try changing your URL to: RestTest/rest/hello - or the equivalent relative URL to your page, just chop off the trailing /.
Also - is the rest service on the same domain as the site? I.E is your site located at http://localhost:8080/?  If not, it may be a cross domain issue - hard to tell without knowing the full error message.

A: If you wish to force a crossDomain request (such as JSONP) on the same domain, set the value of crossDomain to true.
Read This

A friend sent me link about a new Sony Vaio laptop.
The world's lightest 8″ notebook, the 1.4-pound VAIO® P Series Lifestyle PC does more than you could imagine–with impeccable style. Email at the airport, IM from the park, or just show it off when you want some attention.
Honestly, who really needs a laptop that is 1.4lb that is mega-expensive? What the F is a person gonna use it for? Throw it like a baseball? It's not big enough to read and browse and work on it comfortably. It's not small enough like smart phones, with resembling functions, for you to carry around. If you have trouble carrying around a 4 to 5 lb of very portable laptop, may I say you have a physical condition called weak, and by that I mean, weaker than a 5-year-old.
So in the end, it is all about the last comment — just show it off when you want some attention — that which appeals to the emotional side of consumers. And people will fall for it too, as we have come to adopt the consumeristic lifestyle, which boomed in the past decades. Just maybe less peope will fall for it now, but such things like this laptop are the reflections of the excess in our society.
The lavish lifestyle of the super-rich.
The giant house that's too big even for a family, let alone just a couple.
The big house that parents insist to buy because they have… TWO kids.
The ultra mega-pixel digital camera, when common users won't even have practical usage of pictures from a 4MP camera.
The pick-up and SUVs for just-in-case big items.
Fancy gym memberships that 85% (or whatever large amount) of the people don't use.
The obsessive of saving this and that, or war on this and that, while each individual has trouble taking care of the self, mastering the self.
Talk shows, reality TVs, game shows.
The amount of lawsuits, blaming, victimizing the self.
And the biggest reflection of excess is… the unhealthiness, both physical and mental, of the general population. Just look at obesity, many terminal illness, depression, people going hay-wired, rising health care cost, general uncaring-ness of each other… I believe are all reflections of the same thing.
The excessive excess we have reflects a general lacking inside. Something is amiss which causes us to be so materialistic, even though it is all about looking inside yourself. Since nobody does that, they never fulfill the lack and continue to chase materials, in the form of money, in the form of a successful career, in the form of owning things. Thus the excess. All the while, without looking at yourself and taking care of the self first, people's physical and mental condition deteriorate because they only know to chase materials. Thus all the physiological and mental illness.
So until each individual learns to take care of the self and learns to look within rather than without, and thereby shedding the excess, our problems will always be re-occurring, if only in different forms. Look at the past 3000 years. Humans hadn't really changed. If anything, I think we are in worse shape than ever, despite the entrepreneurship, despite technology, despite all the knowledge and information we possess now.
Reading through books and articles on the internet that are written nowaday, you will basically find content that addresses largly the "how".
But I think the biggest, more important questions that we humans, as a race in whole, need to ask ourselves is the "what" and the "why".
What exactly is it that we REALLY want? That can lead to the question, is economic growth THE MAIN thing that we want?
Why do we want what we want? That can lead to the question, why does economic growth seem to be THE MAIN concern we have, all things aside? Well well, this is a rabbit hole that no one wants to dive in.
Moreover, as a race, where (what direction) are we taking ourself?
Do we even remember why everything started?
Of course, no one really wants to ask these questions. It is MUCH easier to stay the course. To do opposite and ask is to face destruction of a world that exists in our minds, which is great horror and drastic but without any exaggeration.
I find myself isolated in crowds, alone in contemplation. My peers uninterested. Companies grossly negligent. Media talks about anything BUT. Individuals care for the how in the now, mostly quick and dirty ways to get rich. And maybe some decide to look for distraction through sensory stimulation, or simply cover the ears doing "lalala".
It is not the noise and chaos that is scary.
It is even less the pain and suffering are scary.
Scary is the blatent ignoring, non-interest, non-curiosity that 99.999% of people do.
Scary is the things that are not discussed.
Scary is the lack of thoughts, perceptive, and wisdom that prevails.
Perhaps I have spoken too much. It would've been easier if I simply choose to write about the how's to attract crowds huh.


Two losers from Milwaukee, Coop & Remer (Parker & Stone), invent a new game playing basketball, using baseball rules. When the game becomes a huge success, they, along with a billionaire's help, form the Professional Baseketball League where everyone gets the same pay and no team can change cities. Coop & Remer's team, the Milwaukee Beers is the only team standing in the way of major rule changes that the owner of the Dallas Felons (Vaughn) wants to institute.

Alors que les fans croyaient que Steamboat prenait sa retraite, celui-ci revint à la WCW vers novembre 1991 après avoir quitté la WWF à la suite d'un désaccord avec la direction. En effet,lors du Halloween Havoc 1991 juste avant le show,Barry Windham et Dustin Rhodes viennent juste d'arrivés et Bischoff allaient les interviewer mais Anderson et Zbysko les attaquent et Zbysko blessa le genou Windham avec la portière de sa voiture.

In an award ceremony on Nov. 19, Jack Mangala was appointed the second Padnos/Sarosik Endowed Professorship of Civil Discourse at Grand Valley State University. He follows Lisa Perhamus, an education professor, who started the position in January 2013 and will hold it until Dec. 31.
Mangala, a professor of African studies and political science, has been teaching at GVSU for 13 years. He said the Brooks College of Interdisciplinary Studies and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences chose him for the position.
As a civil discourse professor, Mangala is responsible for two projects: creating a fall symposium and planning a new course. The symposium, called "Welcoming communities: Immigrant and Refugee Integration," aims to bring people together for respectful and civil discussions on sensitive and complex issues.
"The symposium's overarching objective will be to bring together all stakeholders and partners involved in the 'Welcoming Michigan Movement'- local officials, schools, community-based organizations, civic and religious leaders, immigrant and refugee organizations, students- to engage in dialogue and share strategies and experiences on how best to integrate immigrants and refugees and build welcoming communities for all, immigrants and non-immigrants alike," Mangala said.
In addition to the public event, students attending GVSU in fall 2016 will also have the opportunity to take IDS 350: "Immigration: Think Global/Act Local" course, which uses a grassroots approach to the subject.
Besides fulfilling a general education requirement, the course will also coincide with the current refugee and immigration discourse in today's society.
Mangala added that "engaging in civil discourse is absolutely critical" for college students because they will be future leaders. Having these types of discussions allows them to exercise their democratic rights as citizens of this country.
Overall, Mangala hopes that students who take his class will gain knowledge of the factors behind global migration, commit to civil discourse and find ways to work with local organizations that want to create welcoming communities for immigrants of all backgrounds and origins.
Anne Hiskes, dean of the Brooks College of Interdisciplinary Studies, worked with Shelley Padnos and Carol Sarosik in 2013 to structure the civil discourse program. As the advisory board leader, she helped review the applicants' proposals and ultimately chose Mangala as the endowed professor for 2016-2017.
The applicants were evaluated based on several criteria: teaching experience, teaching excellence, relevance of topic chosen, the course's engagement with students and potential for the symposium to impact a wider public.
Perhamu's class on Detroit revitalization and Mangala's IDS 350 are just the beginning, Hiskes said. In the future, they plan to add more civil discourse classes.
"We believe that skills of promoting respectful and informative dialogue around crucial social and political issues will be of value for GVSU graduates," she said.

All three modes provide a high degree of data protection, but they differ in terms of the effect that each has on the availability and performance of the primary database.
The supported redo transport configurations for the 3 Data Guard Protection Modes are as follows.
This protection mode guarantees that no data loss will occur if the primary database fails. To provide this level of protection, the redo data needed to recover each transaction must be written to both the local online redo log and to a standby redo log on at least one standby database before the transaction commits. To ensure that data loss cannot occur, the primary database will shut down if a fault prevents it from writing its redo stream to at least one synchronized standby database.
This protection mode provides the highest level of data protection that is possible without affecting the availability of the primary database. Like maximum protection mode, transactions do not commit until all redo data needed to recover those transactions has been written to the online redo log and to at least one synchronized standby database. Unlike maximum protection mode, the primary database will not shut down if a fault prevents it from writing its redo stream to a synchronized standby database. Instead, the primary database will operate in RESYNCHRONIZATION until the fault is corrected and all log gaps have been resolved. When all log gaps have been resolved, the primary database automatically resumes operating in maximum availability mode.
This protection mode provides the highest level of data protection that is possible without affecting the performance of the primary database. This is accomplished by allowing a transaction to commit as soon as the redo data needed to recover that transaction is written to the local redo log. The primary database's redo data stream is also written to at least one standby database, but that redo stream is written asynchronously with respect to the commitment of the transactions that create the redo data.
When network links with sufficient bandwidth and latency are used, this mode provides a level of data protection that approaches that of maximum availability mode with minimal impact on primary database performance.
1. Make sure the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_N settings on the primary are configured and the destination enabled to support the target protection mode as documented above. All parameters should be set as needed in the spfile or pfile. For the mode of MAXIMUM PROTECTION, the standby must be up and mounted. For purposes of example, LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2 will be used.
If using Oracle10g or higher, attributes VALID_FOR and DB_UNIQUE_NAME should also be set as part of the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n.
2. Skip this step if you are on Oracle 11.x or you want to downgrade the Protection Mode in Oracle 10.x Shut down the primary database and restart it in mounted mode. If the primary database is RAC enabled, shut down all of the instances and then start and mount a single instance.
3. Change the protection mode. If step #2 was done, also open the database and restart the other RAC instances.
4. To confirm the change in protection mode, query v$database on the primary.


Microsoft has announced the winners of Microsoft's 10th annual Imagine Cup, The team quadSquad taking the top place prize of $25,000.

Fütchi Perf
Kevin Czap
Czap Books
$15, 84 pages
REVIEWED BY Eleanor Davis Oct 14, 2015
The first chapter of Fütchi Perf is a montage of different people, all different races, on the move, doing their thing. They're cartoony and saggy, with both bounce and weight. They mostly read as young punks and queers. Ebullient narration tells us: "It's election day," "All the right things are winning!" "You've received a sizable arts grant!" "This neighborhood is swarming with all your closest friends!" "You've never been so happy!!!"
It's an odd two-part joke. The first part of the joke goes: things aren't really like this. But the second part says, gently, well, why not?
Why is it that art about good things is so often bad art? Most of the happy images we see day-to-day are selling something, or the artist is trying to pull a curtain across the ugly parts of life. Art showing flowers, babies, smiling families, and people in love is often inane or disingenuous, and the awful thing is that this bad artwork makes the happy stuff itself seem fake. As artists we can get scared of making art about the things that are most precious to us: we don't want to make something bad, and we don't want those parts of ourselves to be vulnerable. So we make low-risk cynical sad little stories, and we stop trying to imagine a kinder world.
As far as I can tell, Fütchi Perf is a comic about the good stuff, the best and most precious stuff. It's a small oddball homage to community, solidarity, and joy. And it feels honest, it feels true, and weirdest of all it feels almost within reach. How does Czap do it? And is it important to do?
Fütchi Perf is, I think, about:
•	A magical future version of Cleveland where everything is Better
•	A government-funded autonomous think tank of hyper-radical young artists, fashionistas and activists.
•	People being hardcore good to one another.
I am not 100% sure, though, because Fütchi Perf is difficult to read. It's episodic, and extremely disjointed. I am pretty sure there are no reoccurring characters. I am pretty sure that most of the slang – and there's a lot of slang – is made up. The page layouts are manic full-bleed information overloads. There's very little story. Instead we get flashes: a dance club, a house party, a mystical moment on a subway; artists at work, a punk concert, friends naked at a beach; walking in the snow, laughing while crying, reaching out, holding on to one another.
In Jorge Luis Borges' beautiful lecture series, This Craft of Verse, he says:
Arguments convince nobody. They convince nobody because they are presented as arguments. Then we look at them, we weigh them over, and we decide against them. But when something is merely said or - better still - hinted at, there is a kind of hospitality in our imagination. We are ready to accept it.
Fütchi Perf's impenetrability is an effective & generous trick. Struggling to parse the comic makes you feel like you came up with Czap's ideas yourself. The feelings of love you come to while untangling the comic are hard won, so you trust them. The happy world we see in Fütchi Perf is a puzzle Czap lets you solve on your own.
When parts of this almost-utopian puzzle are unresolvable, Czap slips past them with a slight of hand. A chapter addressing the real-world energy needs of Magic Cleveland starts with a frustrating montage of vague fantastic machinery, but then it shifts to images of people in their homes with this odd non sequitur: "Now you can run for days on a single good memory. And you can give this happiness to others." The suspicious feeling you get from the unrealistic sci-fi machines is released. Czap refuses to give a fake solution to the problem, and stubbornly brings us back around to the weird mystical potential of solidarity again.
So Fütchi Perf feels true because it doesn't have the empty-calorie easiness or the didactic utopianism of a lot of the "happy" imagery we're used to. It also stands against the normative homogenous Aryan smack of classic utopias like Eden, Asgard, and Lothlorien. Czap's Magic Future Cleveland is hyper-diverse. People of color are the majority in this world. There's every body type. Gender presentation is all over the map. The body hair situation is impressive. It's a physical world, of flesh and blood. And unlike the kind of "happy" imagery that slides into kitsch, not everyone here is smiling all the time. Czap's characters yell & sweat, they speak honestly & openly. They cry a lot, usually with joy, but real hot tears. Their joy isn't easy, & that makes it familiar.
Fütchi Perf is about the good stuff, and it's about a world where the good stuff has been allowed to grow & flourish & the bad stuff has been fought against and maybe, even, beaten back. It's about a kind of utopia, but a realistic utopia, built for human beings, not gods or elves. It's built for us. It needs to be built by us.
I'm forgiving of cynicism. It's an effective shield against a world that will certainly hurt you, and it's a crutch I've leaned on for most of my life. But it's a crutch I think we lean on far too heavily, and I'm glad for art like Fütchi Perf that sneakily, confusingly, points toward a better way.

This book is fantastic. Highly recommended. I've watched Kevin grow over the years and seeing his voice come through so loud and clear in this book really floored me. Stunning. Also he did it all himself and he got it printed with good help and didn't wait for someone to give the brass ring to him – he went out and got it. Kevin's DIY spirit inspires everyone around him. Crushed it.
justin otherhater says:
this comics seemed to me more like the queer/punk community equivalent of a white power tract. we all know those scenes are a monoculture of white entitlement. basically what I got out of it was: if only THEY would conform to our ways, adapt to OUR newspeak, get out of OUR way so WE can take charge. then everything would be perfect! isn't that the code of the ethical gentrifier? ultimately its some slimy white male savior power fantasy stuff. so comics as usual… yeah czap drew some black people, but they were his scene's idealized redesign of black people. it's not a long comic but, I didn't see any evidence of the actual cultural diversity existing in reality today. there was nothing outside the standard punk/queer/mayday parade scene conventions. maybe all they jews, muslims, regular black people, conservatives, mexicans & normies are all in reeducation camps that only exist between panels? made me sort of want to punch someone, so kind of a bummer. real nice colors though.
'maybe all they jews, muslims, regular black people, conservatives, mexicans & normies are all in reeducation camps that only exist between panels? '
or maybe they just didn't have their id badges on, you know, like they do in real life….i think you've kind of missed the point.
but, yeah, the structure of this thing was a little opaque. i think re-reads will probably be more rewarding, and it's good enough and pretty enough that i don't mind putting in the effort of trying to understand it better.
of course, my reading of futchi perf is juxtaposed against the finish of jason shiga's 'demon', so…sort of opposite ends of the spectrum.

Q: How to show all marker/ Location on map android/ I want to show all marker points on google map in my application.Some marker point are out of scope(Screen) in app.

A: Please refer below code
LatLngBounds.Builder builder = new LatLngBounds.Builder();
    try {

        for (int i = 0; i < mapDataList.size(); i++) {
            LatLng location = new LatLng(Double.parseDouble(mapDataList.get(i).get(LATITUDE)), Double.parseDouble(mapDataList.get(i).get(LONGITUDE)));
            builder.include(location);
        }

        LatLngBounds bounds = builder.build();
     getMap().moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngBounds(bounds, 100));

    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

// Attached image is output for above code .

A: Change your code like this....
Zooming level need to be changed as per your requirement.Then you could see all the markers in map.                                   map.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(mycurrentLocation,17.0f));
Here   17.0f   is zooming level

The Wildlife Conservation Society was originally chartered by New York on April 26, 1895 as the New York Zoological Society with a mandate to advance wildlife conservation, promote the study of zoology, and create a first-class zoological park. Its name was changed to the Wildlife Conservation Society in 1993.
Among the founders of WCS were Andrew H. Green, Henry Fairfield Osborn, and Madison Grant. Theodore Roosevelt and other notable New Yorkers were also involved in the Society's creation.
The Bronx Zoo (formerly known as the New York Zoological Park) was designed along the lines of other cultural icons in New York City, such as the American Museum of Natural History. The city provided the land for the new zoo and some funding for buildings and annual operating costs. WCS raised most of the funds for construction and operations from private donors and selected the scientific and administrative personnel.
To direct the effort to build the zoo, WCS selected naturalist William T. Hornaday, well known as a founder of the National Zoo in Washington, D.C. Hornaday chose the Bronx site for the zoo and selected curators, keepers, and other staff who helped open the facility on November 8, 1899.
The success of the Bronx Zoo fostered stronger ties with the city government. In 1902, WCS took over management of the New York Aquarium, then located at Battery Park in Manhattan, and in 1957 opened a new aquarium at Coney Island, Brooklyn.
During the 1960s and 1970s, WCS took a leadership role in pioneering zoological exhibitions by seeking to recreate natural environments for the animals on display in such exhibitions as the World of Birds and Wild Asia.
Eventually New York City turned to WCS to renew and manage the three city-run zoos. The redesigned Central Park Zoo opened in 1988, followed by the Queens Zoo in 1992 and the Prospect Park Zoo in 1993.
A Legacy of Protecting Wildlife and Wild Places
Even before the Bronx Zoo opened its gates, WCS was at the forefront of conservation and field research. Zoo Director William T. Hornaday carried out a direct-mail survey of wildlife conditions through the United States and publicized the decline of birds and mammals in the organization's annual reports. In 1897 Hornaday hired field researcher Andrew J. Stone to survey the condition of wildlife in the territory of Alaska. On the basis of these studies, Hornaday led the campaign for new laws to protect the wildlife there and across the United States.
Starting in 1905, Hornaday led a national campaign to reintroduce the almost extinct bison to government-sponsored refuges. The Bronx Zoo sent 15 bison to Wichita Reserve in 1907 and additional bison in later years. The saving of this uniquely American symbol is one of the great success stories in the history of wildlife conservation. Throughout his thirty years as director of the Bronx Zoo, Hornaday continued to campaign for wildlife protection.
William Beebe, the Zoo's first curator of birds, began a program of field research soon after the Bronx Zoo opened. His research on wild pheasants took him to Asia from 1908 to 1911 and resulted in a series of books. Beebe's fieldwork also resulted in the creation of the Society's Department of Tropical Research, which he began directing in 1916 and maintained an active role in until his death in 1962.
Beebe's research in an undersea vessel called the bathysphere took him half a mile under the ocean off Bermuda in 1934 to record for the first time human observations of the bottom of the deep sea. The bathysphere is currently displayed at the New York Aquarium.
After World War II, under the leadership of Fairfield Osborn, one of the foremost conservationists of the era, the organization expanded its programs in field biology and conservation. In 1946 WCS helped found the Jackson Hole Wildlife Park, which became part of the Grand Teton National Park in 1962.
In the late 1950s WCS began a series of wildlife surveys and projects in Kenya, Tanganyika (now Tanzania), Uganda, Ethiopia, Sudan, Burma, and the Malay peninsula. In 1959 it sponsored George Schaller's seminal study of mountain gorillas in Congo. Since that expedition, Schaller has gone on to become the world's preeminent field biologist, studying wildlife throughout Africa, Asia, and South America.
The conservation activities of the Bronx Zoo and WCS continued to expand under the leadership of William Conway, who became director of the Zoo in 1962 and President of WCS in 1992. Active as a field biologist in Patagonia, Conway promoted a new vision of zoos as conservation organizations, which cooperated in breeding endangered species. He also designed new types of zoo exhibits aimed at teaching visitors about habitats that support wildlife, and he encouraged the expansion of WCS's field programs.
Today, in addition to running five facilities in New York, WCS works in nearly 60 countries around the world in order to save wildlife and the wild places in which they live.

I had a bad run. And now I'm in a bad mood.
This was supposed to be my first structured week. And it mostly was. Using TrainingPeaks' ATP, this was categorized as a "Preparation" week. Base 1 Week 1 starts tomorrow. Still, I came extremely close to my target weekly TSS of 780 for this week. That's pretty great considering that I had a few workouts that just didn't go well at all. And just like last week, ending this one on a high note, looking forward to more.
Planned for 65.0 TSS, so this was pretty much on target. Felt good too.
Monday after my run, I followed it up with some core work. It definitely helps on the bike in the power transfer but I was not recovered enough. My IT bands and glutes were not pleased with this, but I pushed through. Overall, pretty happy, but sore.
Monday's core work includes push-ups and some synergistic workouts that involve shoulders, biceps, and chest. I felt like I had tree-trunks for arms that wouldn't bend. Just not recovered enough. I was planning for a 20 x 100 set but I missed my goal paces within the SI's on every interval, and felt like crap doing it. So I bailed.
Redemption for Tuesday. If it was easier to set intervals on not-05 and not-10 second intervals I'd have done this a bit faster. I'll have to look into this for next time.
Starting to notice that my watch's distance differs significantly from the treadmill. I need to do some looking into this. Otherwise felt good.
I wrote a full blog post about that here. Short version: knees.
Did this workout last Saturday too, and compared to that I dropped more than 30 seconds off the first 1500 and over 60 seconds off the second from last week. This is going in the right direction.
Planned for 65.0 TSS, I promise. This just felt so good I thought I'd do a bit extra at the end. Bonus round! But really noticing the difference between my watch's speed/distance calculation and the treadmill. I'm not sure which is more accurate but I tend to believe the treadmill on the indoor workouts. According to that, I did ~11.5 km total. Once the weather warms this mostly won't matter, but still weird that its different by that much.

MyPaperLessOffice is an online human resources management system designed to help make work life easier for your entire company, not just the HR department. Executives can rest easier because MyPaperLessOffice can positively impact the bottom line by increasing efficiency, reducing HR costs, and helping manage compliance. Human Resources can focus less on administrative tasks and more on the strategic functions of HR. All employees can benefit from the easy access to information and improved communication that MyPaperLessOffice can provide. By electronically automating many of the complex tasks and processes normally associated with HR, MyPaperLessOffice offers tremendous benefits. Perhaps most importantly, MyPaperLessOffice is a human resources management system that can actually help save employers money in the long run in a variety of ways.
It saves time. Plenty of it.
Most HR executives are managing at least 3-5 different employee databases whether it be related to their payroll system, various benefit programs, applicant tracking system, performance management system, time clocks, intranets, and so on. MyPaperLessOffice takes information from all of these different sources and puts them in one place, and reduces the amount of tedious administrative work that HR people have to deal with, allowing them to spend more time managing people, not paper.
When an HR executive is forced to download information to numerous spreadsheets and then upload them to other programs, there's bound to be some mistakes. Since MyPaperLessOffice eliminates redundancies by enabling you to consolidate your data into a single system of record, it also eliminates those mistakes. All of your data is entered in one place and all of your data can be found in one place. Updates and changes are instantly available throughout your organization.
The majority of your employees have access to a PC or smartphone these days, and for those that don't, you can easily create a "kiosk" at your company for employees who do not have direct internet access. This allows employees to get the information they want, when they want it, without having to involve their manager or human resource executive in the process. Eliminating these never-ending "got a minutes" is priceless.
No longer does a supervisor or manager have to go to HR to ask them to pull an employee file to prepare for the performance evaluation. With our easy to use HRMS software, they can simply go online to do so within moments. Managers can review time cards, edit time sheets, manage time off, log employee notes, track training, issue warnings, send kudos, conduct performance reviews, manage goals, and more.
Imagine, no more personnel files or large storage cabinets. The result is less time involvement, better data storage management, and freed up space.
Get a grip on how well you're managing the hiring process, employee turnover, performance management, training, compensation, benefits costs, time off balances, and more. MyPaperLessOffice has a suite of reports that will help facilitate strategic HR thinking.
MyPaperLessOffice is housed in a Fort Knox-like environment in some of the most high-tech facilities in the country. As a result, your employee data is much more secure than if it were housed in your own office. Whether it is a hurricane, blizzard, fire, or computer failure, your data is still protected.
One of the key benefits of a HRIS is in compliance. With MyPaperLessOffice, dealing with compliance issues like an I-9 audit, producing attendance and break records, or providing evidence of progressive discipline for a wrongful termination lawsuit is a snap.
MyPaperLessOffice can talk to other systems when you need it. We can integrate with third-party payroll vendors, benefit carriers, CRMs, and time & attendance solutions, providing complete connection of your information even across separate platforms. Want to connect your existing payroll system to our HRMS? No problem. We can build a bridge to connect the two systems, whether that be a simple file import/export or web services to provide two-way communication in real time. Our integration services allow you to connect people, information, and processes across platforms throughout your enterprise.
Want to know more? Contact us and we'll be happy to answer your questions or arrange a demo.


Officer filled out the ticket incorrectly!?
I got a ticket for 'improper right turn' form Yonge street onto Holmes ave (small st east of Yonge) however the cop wrote I made the incorrect right turn on Olive ave which is one street north of Holmes ave on Yonge st.
What is the best way to exploit this error?
also, I made the incorrect right turn because there was an illegally parked car (too close to the intersection) so I had to make a really wide turn into Holmes and ended up tapping a car (no damage but other car called the police leading to me getting the ticket).
I will definitely fight the ticket however can i get it cancelled based on the ticket error???
Re: Officer filled out the ticket incorrectly!?
Incorrect location is probably not going to be considered a fatal error. If you raise it the prosecutor will probably ask for it to be amended to the correct location and it's not really material to the charge since when you are arraigned the charge wording will only say that you are charged with committing the offence of unsafe turn on x date in "the city of Where Ever, in the said region", so the prosecutor really doesn't have to prove anything more than that it was somewhere in the city of Where Ever.
That being said, you could possible make an argument that the error somehow prejudiced your ability to make a full answer and defence, thus constituting a breach of your s. 7 Charter rights, if it has actually prejudiced your ability somehow.

After making articles about WordPress tweaking and customizing with plugins or hacks, it's now time to showcase sites that use WordPress as a CMS. You will find in the article sites that have a particular layout, not like the dull ones that you may find in the free WP themes. Also, I need to mention, in order to avoid some comments, that I neglected some sites that are featured constantly in gallery-articles like this one.
