Q: Generate functionality sendSweetAlert buttons in Shiny Friends, I created two buttons (YES and NO) in the alert made by sendSweetAlert in Shiny. How do I generate a functionality in the Yes button so that when I press YES, a list with the df database industries appears? Every help is welcome. The executable code is below.
library(shiny)
library(rdist)
library(geosphere)
library(tidyverse)
library(shinyWidgets)
library(shinythemes)

function.cl<-function(df){

  #database df
  df<-structure(list(Industries = c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7),
                     Latitude = c(-23.8, -23.8, -23.9, -23.9, -23.9,-23.8,-23.8),
                     Longitude = c(-49.8, -49.8, -49.5, -49.8, -49.8,-49.8,-49.8),
                     Waste = c(526, 350, 526, 469, 285, 433, 456)), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -7L))

                     text = tags$div(h5("The industries that need to exclude are:"),

Thank you very much friends!

A: This is the easiest way that i know
library(shiny)
library(shinyWidgets)
library(DT)
ui<-fluidPage(actionButton("actionbuttonID","Question"))

server <- function(input, output,session) {
  output$row_modif<-renderDT({ #row_modif is your id for the table

    datatable(
      iris, selection = "single") #replace iris by your dataframe

  })
  observeEvent(input$actionbuttonID,{ #in this line your actionbutton id
    confirmSweetAlert(    #when you click in your action button a confirmsweetalert open
      btn_labels = c("No","Yes"), # false first true second
      session = session,
      inputId = "idforthequestion", #  input$idforthequestion important for if()
      type = "warning", #success, info, question...
      title = paste0("Your Title here"),
      danger_mode = F,
      closeOnClickOutside = T,
      showCloseButton =T
    )})
  observeEvent(input$idforthequestion,{ #observe your confirm sweet alert
    if(input$idforthequestion) {
     #if is true do something
      showModal(modalDialog(
        fluidPage(
          h3(strong("Your Another Title here"),align="center"),
          hr(),
          DTOutput('row_modif')))) } #row_modif is your id for the table}
      if(isFALSE(input$idforthequestion)){
        print("False")
      }

    } )

  }

  shinyApp(ui,server)

A: You may want to look into conditional panels.
In the ui you setup a panel like this:
conditionalPanel(
  condition = "output.ShowCombatDamage",
  textOutput("CombatDamage")
)

On the server side you specify the condition when to show the panel and it's content.
# When to show the panel - in this case when the variable FightVal$Damage is not NA
output$ShowCombatDamage <- reactive({
  return( !is.na(FightVal$Damage) )
})
outputOptions(output, 'ShowCombatDamage', suspendWhenHidden = FALSE)

# Render the ouput as usual
output$CombatDamage <- renderPrint({
  cat(i18n$t("Hit points"), ": ", FightVal$Damage, sep = "")
})

You could do something similar: as long as df database industries is NA do not show the panel. Also add a listener for the YES button to create the df database industries. You can check for YES using confirmSweetAlert instead of using sendSweetAlert.

Q: How can I select an element in a component template? Does anybody know how to get hold of an element defined in a component template? Polymer makes it really easy with the $ and $$.
I was just wondering how to go about it in Angular.
Take the example from the tutorial:
import {Component} from '@angular/core';

@Component({
    selector:'display',
    template:`
     <input #myname (input)="updateName(myname.value)"/>

My name : {{myName}}

     `
})
export class DisplayComponent {
    myName: string = "Aman";
    updateName(input: String) {
        this.myName = input;
    }
}

How do I catch hold or get a reference of the p or input element from within the class definition?

A: I have used two way:
First way :
You can get a handle to the DOM element via ElementRef by injecting it into your component's constructor:
constructor(private myElement: ElementRef) {
this.myElement.nativeElement // <- your direct element reference
}

Second way:
@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  template:
  `
  <input #input value="enterThere">
  `,
  styleUrls: [ './app.component.css' ]
})
export class AppComponent  {
  @ViewChild('input') input:ElementRef;

  ngAfterViewInit() {
    console.log(this.input);
  }

A: import { Component, ElementRef, OnInit } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector:'display',
  template:`
   <input (input)="updateName($event.target.value)">

 My name : {{ myName }}

  `
})
class DisplayComponent implements OnInit {
  constructor(public element: ElementRef) {
    this.element.nativeElement // <- your direct element reference
  }
  ngOnInit() {
    var el = this.element.nativeElement;
    console.log(el);
  }
  updateName(value) {
    // ...
  }
}

Example updated to work with the latest version
For more details on native element, here

A: Note: This doesn't apply to Angular 6 and above as ElementRef became ElementRef<T> with T denoting the type of nativeElement.
I would like to add that if you are using ElementRef, as recommended by all answers, then you will immediately encounter the problem that ElementRef has an awful type declaration that looks like
export declare class ElementRef {
  nativeElement: any;
}

this is stupid in a browser environment where nativeElement is an HTMLElement.
To workaround this you can use the following technique
import {Inject, ElementRef as ErrorProneElementRef} from '@angular/core';

interface ElementRef {
  nativeElement: HTMLElement;
}

@Component({...}) export class MyComponent {
  constructor(@Inject(ErrorProneElementRef) readonly elementRef: ElementRef) { }
}

A: Mimimum example for quick usage:
import { Component, ElementRef, ViewChild} from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  template:
  `
  <input #inputEl value="hithere">
  `,
  styleUrls: [ './app.component.css' ]
})
export class AppComponent  {
  @ViewChild('inputEl') inputEl:ElementRef;

  ngAfterViewInit() {
    console.log(this.inputEl);
  }
}

*

*Put a template reference variable on the DOM element of interest. In our example this is the #inputEl on the <input> tag.

*In our component class inject the DOM element via the @ViewChild decorator

*Access the element in the ngAfterViewInit lifecycle hook.

Note:
If you want to manipulate the DOM elements use the Renderer2 API instead of accessing the elements directly. Permitting direct access to the DOM can make your application more vulnerable to XSS attacks

A: You can get a handle to the DOM element via ElementRef by injecting it into your component's constructor:
constructor(private myElement: ElementRef) { ... }

Docs: https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/api/core/index/ElementRef-class.html

A: Angular 4+:
Use renderer.selectRootElement with a CSS selector to access the element.
I've got a form that initially displays an email input. After the email is entered, the form will be expanded to allow them to continue adding information relating to their project. However, if they are not an existing client, the form will include an address section above the project information section.
As of now, the data entry portion has not been broken up into components, so the sections are managed with *ngIf directives. I need to set focus on the project notes field if they are an existing client, or the first name field if they are new.
I tried the solutions with no success. However, Update 3 in this answer gave me half of the eventual solution. The other half came from MatteoNY's response in this thread. The result is this:
import { NgZone, Renderer } from '@angular/core';

constructor(private ngZone: NgZone, private renderer: Renderer) {}

setFocus(selector: string): void {
    this.ngZone.runOutsideAngular(() => {
        setTimeout(() => {
            this.renderer.selectRootElement(selector).focus();
        }, 0);
    });
}

submitEmail(email: string): void {
    // Verify existence of customer
    ...
    if (this.newCustomer) {
        this.setFocus('#firstname');
    } else {
        this.setFocus('#description');
    }
}

Since the only thing I'm doing is setting the focus on an element, I don't need to concern myself with change detection, so I can actually run the call to renderer.selectRootElement outside of Angular. Because I need to give the new sections time to render, the element section is wrapped in a timeout to allow the rendering threads time to catch up before the element selection is attempted. Once all that is setup, I can simply call the element using basic CSS selectors.
I know this example dealt primarily with the focus event, but it's hard for me that this couldn't be used in other contexts.
UPDATE: Angular dropped support for Renderer in Angular 4 and removed it completely in Angular 9. This solution should not be impacted by the migration to Renderer2. Please refer to this link for additional information:
Renderer migration to Renderer2

A: to get the immediate next sibling ,use this
event.source._elementRef.nativeElement.nextElementSibling

A: For people trying to grab the component instance inside a *ngIf or *ngSwitchCase, you can follow this trick.
Create an init directive.
import {
    Directive,
    EventEmitter,
    Output,
    OnInit,
    ElementRef
} from '@angular/core';

@Directive({
    selector: '[init]'
})
export class InitDirective implements OnInit {
    constructor(private ref: ElementRef) {}

    @Output() init: EventEmitter<ElementRef> = new EventEmitter<ElementRef>();

    ngOnInit() {
        this.init.emit(this.ref);
    }
}

Export your component with a name such as myComponent
@Component({
    selector: 'wm-my-component',
    templateUrl: 'my-component.component.html',
    styleUrls: ['my-component.component.css'],
    exportAs: 'myComponent'
})
export class MyComponent { ... }

Use this template to get the ElementRef AND MyComponent instance

    <wm-my-component
           #myComponent="myComponent"
           *ngSwitchCase="Type.MyType"
           (init)="init($event, myComponent)">
    </wm-my-component>

Use this code in TypeScript
init(myComponentRef: ElementRef, myComponent: MyComponent) {
}

A: import the ViewChild decorator from @angular/core, like so:
HTML Code:
<form #f="ngForm">
  ...
  ...
</form>

TS Code:
import { ViewChild } from '@angular/core';

class TemplateFormComponent {

  @ViewChild('f') myForm: any;
    .
    .
    .
}

now you can use 'myForm' object to access any element within it in the class.
Source

A:  */
import {Component,ViewChild} from '@angular/core' /*Import View Child*/

@Component({
    selector:'display'
    template:`

     <input #myname (input) = "updateName(myname.value)"/>

 My name : {{myName}}

    `
})
export class DisplayComponent{
  @ViewChild('myname')inputTxt:ElementRef; /*create a view child*/

   myName: string;

    updateName: Function;
    constructor(){

        this.myName = "Aman";
        this.updateName = function(input: String){

            this.inputTxt.nativeElement.value=this.myName;

            /*assign to it the value*/
        };
    }
}

A: Instead of injecting ElementRef and using querySelector or similar from there, a declarative way can be used instead to access elements in the view directly:
<input #myname>

@ViewChild('myname') input;

element
ngAfterViewInit() {
  console.log(this.input.nativeElement.value);
}

StackBlitz example

*

*@ViewChild() supports directive or component type as parameter, or the name (string) of a template variable.

*@ViewChildren() also supports a list of names as comma separated list (currently no spaces allowed @ViewChildren('var1,var2,var3')).

*@ContentChild() and @ContentChildren() do the same but in the light DOM (<ng-content> projected elements).

descendants
@ContentChildren() is the only one that allows to also query for descendants
@ContentChildren(SomeTypeOrVarName, {descendants: true}) someField;

{descendants: true} should be the default but is not in 2.0.0 final and it's considered a bug

This was fixed in 2.0.1
read
If there are a component and directives the read parameter allows to specify which instance should be returned.
For example ViewContainerRef that is required by dynamically created components instead of the default ElementRef
@ViewChild('myname', { read: ViewContainerRef }) target;

subscribe changes
Even though view children are only set when ngAfterViewInit() is called and content children are only set when ngAfterContentInit() is called, if you want to subscribe to changes of the query result, it should be done in ngOnInit()
https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/9689#issuecomment-229247134
@ViewChildren(SomeType) viewChildren;
@ContentChildren(SomeType) contentChildren;

ngOnInit() {
  this.viewChildren.changes.subscribe(changes => console.log(changes));
  this.contentChildren.changes.subscribe(changes => console.log(changes));
}

direct DOM access
can only query DOM elements, but not components or directive instances:
export class MyComponent {
  constructor(private elRef:ElementRef) {}
  ngAfterViewInit() {
    var div = this.elRef.nativeElement.querySelector('div');
    console.log(div);
  }

  // for transcluded content
  ngAfterContentInit() {
    var div = this.elRef.nativeElement.querySelector('div');
    console.log(div);
  }
}

get arbitrary projected content
See Access transcluded content

A: Selecting target element from the list. It is easy to select particular element from the list of same elements.
component code:
export class AppComponent {
  title = 'app';

  listEvents = [
    {'name':'item1', 'class': ''}, {'name':'item2', 'class': ''},
    {'name':'item3', 'class': ''}, {'name':'item4', 'class': ''}
  ];

  selectElement(item: string, value: number) {
    console.log("item="+item+" value="+value);
    if(this.listEvents[value].class == "") {
      this.listEvents[value].class='selected';
    } else {
      this.listEvents[value].class= '';
    }
  }
}

html code:

  {{ event.name }}

css code:
.selected {
  color: red;
  background:blue;
}

A: For components inside *ngIf, another approach:
The component I wanted to select was inside a div's *ngIf statement, and @jsgoupil's answer above probably works (Thanks @jsgoupil!), but I ended up finding a way to avoid using *ngIf, by using CSS to hide the element.
When the condition in the [className] is true, the div gets displayed, and naming the component using # works and it can be selected from within the typescript code. When the condition is false, it's not displayed, and I don't need to select it anyway.
Component:
@Component({
    selector: 'bla',
    templateUrl: 'bla.component.html',
    styleUrls: ['bla.component.scss']
})
export class BlaComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
    @ViewChild('myComponentWidget', {static: true}) public myComponentWidget: any;
    @Input('action') action: ActionType; // an enum defined in our code. (action could also be declared locally)

constructor() {
   etc;
}

// this lets you use an enum in the HMTL (ActionType.SomeType)
public get actionTypeEnum(): typeOf ActionType {
    return ActionType;
}

public someMethodXYZ: void {
    this.myComponentWidget.someMethod(); // use it like that, assuming the method exists
}

and then in the bla.component.html file:

    <my-component #myComponentWidget etc></my-component>

    <button type="reset" class="bunch-of-classes" (click)="someMethodXYZ()">
        XYZ
    </button>

and the CSS file:
 ::ng-deep {
    .show-it {
         display: block;   // example, actually a lot more css in our code
    }
    .do-not-show {
        display: none';
    }
}

A: In case you are using Angular Material, you can take advantage of cdkFocusInitial directive.
Example: <input matInput cdkFocusInitial>

Koh Tao murders: Defence denied Scotland Yard report
August 26, 2015 in Koh Tao, Lead Story, Migrants Issues, News8by REUTERS
Two Burmese workers on trial in Thailand for the murder of two British tourists should not be given access to a confidential British police report about the case, a British judge ruled on Tuesday.
Wai Phyo and Zaw Lin, both 22, risk the death penalty if found guilty of murdering Hannah Witheridge, 23, and David Miller, 24, in September last year on a beach on Koh Tao, an island popular with backpackers and divers.
Post-mortem examinations showed both suffered severe head wounds and Witheridge was raped.
The case is sensitive because of Thailand's reliance on tourism, which makes up nearly 10 percent of the economy, and because of questions that have emerged over police tactics.
The two suspects initially confessed in police interviews and were taken to the crime scene where they re-enacted the murders in front of the world's media. They later retracted the confessions, alleging they had been tortured by Thai police.
The allegations caused disquiet in Britain. In a ruling handed down in London on Tuesday, High Court Judge Nicholas Green said the misgivings were such that Prime Minister David Cameron had discussed the case with his Thai counterpart Prayuth Chan-ocha.
The two leaders agreed that Britain's Metropolitan Police would send a team to Thailand to conduct an independent inquiry. However, as it is British policy not to assist foreign police forces in death penalty cases, the scope of the mission was to observe and record the Thai police investigation.
[related]
Thai police cooperated fully under the pre-agreed condition that the British team's final report would be shared only with the Witheridge and Miller families.
But the two murder suspects, who have been on trial since early July, applied to the court to hand over the report, arguing that it might be of use to their defence case.
The Metropolitan Police opposed their application, arguing that disclosure would impede the force's ability to enter into cooperation agreements with foreign authorities in future.
Having seen the full report, the judge ruled that the interests of the police outweighed those of the suspects.
"In short I have concluded that there is nothing in the police report which is exculpatory, i.e. would be of material assistance to the claimants in the trial," he said in a summary of his ruling.

Every once in a while, there's an economics professor who manages to put together a research paper that appeals to gadget geeks and iPhone nerds. Recently, it was reported in Vox that a Professor Xing tried to do this by digging up a breakdown of the country of origin and the corresponding costs for the various components that go into an iPhone 3G.
His thesis was that the Chinese labour costs for the iPhone assembly accounted for only $6.50 out of a grand total of $178.96 and hence a revaluation of the Chinese dollar will not really have a real impact on US competitiveness and the global demand for products simply assembled in China. In fact, if the same iPhone was assembled in the US, given that labour costs are 10 times more than China, the manufacturing costs would have been $65, resulting in a grand total price of $237.46 or a 30% increase in price. Now, looking at how laptop costs have come down, I suppose the costs of materials wouldn't have increased substantially for the iPhone 4(despite the higher specifications) and so this analysis probably still holds true.
Given that the iPhone 4 is currently priced at $199 bundled with an AT&T plan, I would say that the iPhone pricing seems to be fairly competitive based on the estimated costs of materials which obviously haven't taken into account software development and integration costs, as well as other administrative overheads.

Q: Rails prawn date format I'm trying to format a date (inside of an inherited prawn class) from a db and "paste" it into a prawn generated pdf. I thought I could use my properly formatted code from one of my views but I get an error saying "unknown method l". It seems like the Prawn::Document can't access the date formatting helper method?. Is there a way to get access to it?
Here is my code from the view.
<%= l(course.begindate, format: "%a %d.%m.") %> - <%= l(course.enddate, format: "%a %d.%m.%Y") %>

Maybe it is possible to do something like this?
@coursedate = l(course.begindate, format: "%a %d.%m.").to_s

Thanks a lot!

A: Prawn::Document doesn't incorporate view helpers, it seems. But you can use I18n.l for this.
I hope this helps :)

Reinforcing Transaction Banking in the UK by George Stein, Head of Global Transaction Banking UK, UniCredit UniCredit's London branch fulfils a vital role in meeting corporate ambitions in the UK, and for UK investors looking towards UniCredit's home markets.
Despite the short- and potentially mid-term uncertainty created by the result of the EU referendum in the UK and subsequent changes to political leadership, the UK is a large economy and a core market for exports from Europe and beyond. UniCredit's London branch fulfils a vital role in meeting corporate ambitions in the UK, and for UK investors looking towards UniCredit's home markets.
Firstly, looking at UK corporations, the UK has the second largest outward FDI stock globally after the US. While the US is a key market for these investors, as are special purpose vehicles in countries such as Luxembourg and the Netherlands, UK companies are also investing heavily in 'real' economies in other parts of Europe.
Secondly, looking at continental Europe, Germany is the third largest foreign direct investor worldwide, with FDI of USD 1,600bn. In addition, UniCredit's other home markets, Italy and Austria also have major outgoing FDI flows at USD 550bn and USD 220bn respectively. The UK is the second largest destination for these companies after the US. UniCredit research suggests that German and Italian companies will double their foreign investment activities by 2030, and Austrian multinationals more than triple their FDI outward stocks.
Facilitating trade and investment between the UK and our home markets was one of the major factors that led to the decision to build up the Global Transaction Banking business in UniCredit's London branch. By reinforcing our 'on the ground' presence in the UK, we can better support our home-market customers as they pursue their international growth strategies, and build partnerships with UK companies that are seeking to leverage our solutions, expertise and depth of presence in our home markets of Germany, Austria and Italy, and in central and eastern Europe (CEE).
UniCredit has a strong strategic emphasis on transaction banking, which involves leveraging our branch in London, along with many other branches of our international network, including New York, Hong Kong, Singapore and Shanghai to meet the international needs and aspirations of our customers. In London, for example, although transaction banking has been an important aspect of our service delivery for many years, we are making a major investment in skills and solutions to build capacity and expand the breadth of our services. For example, we are expanding our proposition in both cash management and trade finance to support the large number of exporters based in London, and we have reinforced our correspondent banking relationships, with particular strength in the CEE region. Furthermore, we are now offering a newly enhanced platform for both corporations and financial institutions seeking to concentrate their cash in London, which we believe will prove to be very attractive to customers in our home markets and beyond.

Number of Students: 798 (capacity) Architect: Mahlum Architects General Contractor: Porter Brothers Construction Mechanical Engineer: Abacus Engineers Electrical Engineer: Travis Fitzmaurice Thurston County Permitting Official: Tom Hill Permitting Process Olympia School District filed for an electrical permit for Washington Middle School's Solar PV array. The permit took a little over four months to be approved. Applicable Code Sections National Electrical Code Article 690-Solar Photovoltaic Systems IMC Chapter 14-Solar Systems Section 1402- Installation IMC Chapter 14-Solar Systems Section 1404- Materials IECC Chapter 4 Section C406.4- On-Site Renewable Energy Abstract Washington Middle School installed a 1.1 KW solar photovoltaic array on the roof of the library. The permit for the panels took over four months to be approved. The panels were installed as part of the Washington State Senate Bill 5509. The panels offset energy costs throughout the school. Narrative Washington Middle School was a pioneering project for green building in Washington State. It was the first public school built after Senate Bill 5509 was signed into law by Governor Christine Gregoire in 2005. The law states that any publicly funded building over 5,000 square feet must be built in accordance with current green building practices and meet LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) standards. Washington Middle School, in designing their new building, wanted from the start to reduce their demand on the traditional power grid, as well as reduce any externalities that come with its use. To do so, Olympia School District and WMS planned to incorporate a 10 KW solar photovoltaic array on the roof of their new library. The cost of this solar photovoltaic system was initially supposed to be subsidized by the Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF).

how we became known as frankenhaus
John Ayotte
I have related the story of how our kennel came to be known as Frankenhaus several times in the past, but decided it was time to fill in a little more detail.
The more complete version of the story is as follows. When we started in German Shepherds in the early '70s, we began using Rohan as a kennel name. This was selected from "The Lord of the Rings" books by JRR Tolkien. The trilogy, while a classic in fantasy literature, was much less well known to the general public than it is today. We had also named our foundation bitch, a sable Beau of Fran-Jo daughter, Brandywine of Rohan, after the Brandywine river in the books. We bred four litters and registered a couple of dozen puppies under that kennel name.
Later in the seventies we stopped showing and breeding dogs while we raised our kids and became occupied with other things. During the time that we were inactive in German Shepherds (though we were only without at least one GSD for 6 months in the next 10 plus years), Bobby Kindy established her kennel using the Rohan name (never knowing that we had used it previously). She has had much success under that name, and I only wish that I could have bred some of those beautiful animals myself.
When, in the early 90's we decided that we wanted to show and breed German Shepherds again we realized that we would need to select a new kennel name for our efforts. We discussed many possibilities, before realizing that we had a perfect choice.
When Teri and I were first married, I was serving in the military. In fact, just one week after our wedding, I left for my tour of duty in Germany (Teri joining me about three months later, in December of 1970). We lived in southern Germany (Bavaria) until September of 1972.
The Bavarian countryside.
The first year was near Nurenburg, and the second near Augsburg. It was in the spring of 1971, while living in Germany, that Teri and I purchased our first German Shepherd. Although he came home with us when I got out of the Army, and he was the inspiration for our lifelong dedication to the breed, he was by no means a show dog. (There are pictures of him on the article index page of this web site).
Our first apartment in Germany was a renovated section of a 200+ year old barn, and it was our landlord that introduced us to Franken wines, produced in the neighboring region of Frankonia. Franken wines became my favorites (Teri leans more to a good Reinhessen).
Thus, as a tribute to our time in Germany, to our first GSD, and to my favorite German wine, we became Frankenhaus (shortened to Franken when it won't fit on the AKC forms).
a bit about franken wine
The region of Frankonia is centered on the city of Wurzburg, and runs along the river Main before it joins the Rhein river. The region has short summers and extensive frost.
The distinctive traditional Franken wine bottles (Bocksbeutel) are used for dry wines that are not very aromatic, but are honeyed and earthy flavored, clear, and bright-gold with fresh scents of apple and damp wool. Crisp and clean, these fruity and very tart wines are good companions with food. They are more akin to the Chablis of France than typical German wines.
The distinctive Franken wine bottle.
Considered by many Germans to be their country's finest, Franken wines are not well known in North America; almost all Franken wine is purchased in Germany, so little is available for export.
Most Franken wines come from limestone soils along the Main Valley. Some of its greatest wines come from the heavy gypsum and marl soils of the forested slopes of the Steigerwald Hills. Franken is geographically distinct from the other wine-regions of Germany, having once been a part of the kingdom of Bavaria, and the wines echo the rococo splendor of that culture.
The Bocksbeutel (which was introduced in 1718 to guarantee the authenticity of its Franken heritage) is the squat round bottle of Franconia (which, with a bit of Germanic ribaldry, is named after the part of the goat that goes over the fence last).

In order to incorporate a business in Dubai there are numerous PRO services, authorization and certification to be done.
The main purpose of offshore company is to set up a bank account. An account for offshore company is not easy as before.


Alternative Asset Opportunities PCC Limited (the "Company") today announces a return of capital conditional on a proposed amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation which requires the approval of Shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting ("EGM") to be held on 24 July 2014.
If the Resolution at the EGM is passed, the Board intends to make an initial capital return to Shareholders of 2.0p per Share (approximately £1.4 million in aggregate). This will be paid on 8 August 2014 to those Shareholders on the register at the close of business on 1 August 2014. The Shares will be marked ex on 30 July 2014.
The Company is today publishing a circular (the "Circular"), following approval by the UK Listing Authority, in respect of the proposed return of capital. A copy of the Circular will be sent to Shareholders and submitted to the National Storage Mechanism.
The Chairman's Letter, as contained in the Circular, is set out below.
Terms used and not defined in this announcement bear the meaning given to them in the Circular to be published today.
In my last two Chairman's statements accompanying our results announcements I have commented that, with the Company on a sounder financial footing and with a continuing flow of policy maturities, the Company could be in a position to start to return funds to Shareholders.
Following a very satisfactory flow of funds from recent policy maturities, the Company now wishes to seek Shareholder approval to put in place a mechanism that will enable the Company to make capital returns to Shareholders.
The purpose of this document is (a) to provide you with details of and the background to the proposed amendment to the Company's Articles to facilitate returns of capital to Shareholders; (b) to convene an EGM to seek the approval of Shareholders, in accordance with the Listing Rules; and (c) to notify Shareholders that, conditional on the passing of the Resolution, the Board proposes to make an initial capital return to Shareholders shortly after the EGM amounting to a sum of 2.0p per share (approximately £1.4 million in aggregate).
Following the placing and open offer in November 2012 the borrowings of the Company were reduced significantly, thereby enabling the Company to continue its policy of seeking to hold its policies to maturity rather than procuring early asset sales which the Board did not consider to be in the long term interests of Shareholders. The level of maturities experienced in the financial year ending 30 June 2014, at $17.4 million, has been the highest in the Company's history and as at 18 June 2014 the Company's cash balances amounted to $3.7 million and the proceeds from 2 announced maturities not yet received amounted to an additional $1.35 million.
The bank facility, which was renewed with Allied Irish Banks plc at the time of the placing and open offer, expired on 31 March 2014 and was replaced by a new revolving loan facility with AIB Group (UK) PLC of up to $10 million which is intended to enable the Company to continue to fulfil its obligations, including the payment of premiums, until the expiry of the facility on 31 March 2016. The current facility is on substantially similar terms to the previous facility but at a reduced interest rate of 3.25 per cent. per annum above LIBOR and a reduced commitment fee. In addition, unlike the previous facility, the current facility will permit the Company to make capital distributions to Shareholders, assuming (a) no default is occurring, (b) no loans are outstanding under the facility and (c) the Company is not in breach of the asset cover requirement set out therein.
Given the terms of the current facility, the current level of cash balances and the continuing flow of maturities, the Board believes that it is appropriate to put in place a mechanism to enable the Company to make capital returns to Shareholders in a cost effective manner.
The Proposal will involve a change to the Company's Articles to include new provisions that will enable the Directors of the Company to distribute cash to Shareholders through the issue and redemption of B Shares. Each time the Board resolves to make such a distribution, the Company will announce a bonus issue of B Shares on a pro rata basis. Immediately upon being issued, fully paid, the B Shares will be redeemed for the amount paid up and the cash proceeds will then be paid to Shareholders.
If the Resolution at the EGM is passed, the Board intends to make an initial capital return to Shareholders, through the issue and redemption of B Shares paid up out of the Company's share premium reserves, amounting to a sum of 2.0p per Share (approximately £1.4 million in aggregate). This will be paid on 8 August 2014, on a pro rata basis, to those Shareholders on the register at the close of business on 1 August 2014. The Shares will be marked ex on 30 July 2014.
Any future capital distributions by way of B Share issue will be declared by the Board, having taken into account the flow of maturities, working capital requirements and the cash resources of the Company. As at 31 May 2014, the Company had 90 policies on 79 lives in its portfolio with a face value of $142.9 million and valuation of $50.2 million. The average age of the individuals covered by the policies in the portfolio was 90.3 years.
As stated above, the Articles of Incorporation, as amended, would provide for a new class of redeemable B Shares that can be issued, fully paid up, from amounts standing to the credit of the Company's share premium account from time to time to Shareholders entitled to distributions of such amounts. Such B Shares would, upon issue, be compulsorily redeemed, at the discretion of the Directors and subject always to any applicable laws (including the satisfaction of any solvency laws).
The New Articles would require any such bonus issue of B Shares to be allotted to entitled Shareholders pro rata to their holdings of Shares as at the time of issue of the B Shares.
Save for an entitlement to a nominal fixed annual dividend of 0.0001p, the B Shares would carry no rights to dividends or other distributions out of the profits of the Company. Holders of B Shares will not be entitled to any surplus assets of the Company apart from distributions of capital paid up on the B Shares. The B Shares will not be listed, will not carry any right to receive notice of, or attend or vote at, any general meeting of the Company and will not be transferable.
The attention of Shareholders is drawn to Part III of this Circular which sets out a general guide to certain aspects of the tax treatment of Shareholders on an issue and redemption of the B Shares. Such redemption should allow most UK taxpayers to receive the return in the form of a capital receipt. Shareholders who are in any doubt as to their tax position or who are subject to tax in a jurisdiction other than the UK should consult an appropriate professional adviser.
This document includes a Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting, at which a special resolution will be proposed for the adoption of the Company's New Articles.
The Resolution, which will be proposed as a special resolution and require the approval of not less than 75 per cent. of those Shareholders present and voting at the EGM (in person or by proxy), will ask Shareholders to approve the Company's New Articles. The principal amendments are as set out in Part II of this document.
In considering your decision in relation to the Proposal, you are referred to the risk that the Proposal is designed to facilitate the return of capital to Shareholders and will therefore reduce the cash resources of the Company each time a distribution is made. Although the Board will take careful account of the working capital requirements of the Company prior to declaring a capital return, Shareholders should note that the level of cash resources available to the Company to meet future premium payments and other operating expenses will be lower following each distribution.
Shareholders should read this Circular carefully and in its entirety and, if you are in any doubt about the contents of this Circular or the action you should take, you are recommended to seek immediately your own personal financial advice from your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other independent financial adviser authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
Set out at the end of this document is a notice convening an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company to be held at 11.00 a.m. at 199 Bishopsgate, London EC2M 3TY on 24 July 2014 at which a special resolution will be proposed to adopt the Company's New Articles.
All Shareholders of the Company are entitled to attend and vote at the Company's EGM. In accordance with the Company's Articles of Incorporation, each Shareholder present in person (or, if a corporation, by a representative) shall upon a show of hands have one vote and upon a poll shall have one vote for every Share held. Two Shareholders present in person (or by proxy) holding 5 per cent. of the issued share capital between them (excluding any Shares held as treasury shares) will constitute a quorum.
You will find enclosed with this document a Form of Proxy for use at the EGM. Whether or not you propose to attend the EGM in person, you are asked to complete the Form of Proxy and return it to Capita Asset Services, at PXS1, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4ZF so as to arrive as soon as possible, but in any event so as to be received not later than 11.00 a.m. on 22 July 2014. Completion and return of a Form of Proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting at the EGM in person if you wish.
If you are in any doubt as to what action you should take, you are recommended to seek your own personal financial advice from your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other independent financial adviser authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 immediately.
A draft of the Company's New Articles proposed for adoption at the EGM will be available for inspection at the offices of Herbert Smith Freehills LLP, Exchange House, Primrose Street, London EC2A 2HS during normal business hours on any Business Day from the date of this document until the conclusion of the EGM. The draft New Articles will also be available for inspection 15 minutes prior to, and during, the EGM at 199 Bishopsgate, London EC2M 3TY.
If the Proposal is not approved at the EGM, the Articles will remain unamended and the Board will consider alternative methods for the distribution of cash to Shareholders.
In the Board's opinion, the Proposal and the Resolution to be put forward at the Extraordinary General Meeting are in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.
Accordingly, your Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolution, as they intend to do in respect of their own beneficial holdings which amount to, in aggregate, 1,602,454 Shares (representing 2.2 per cent. of the existing issued Share capital of the Company as at 19 June 2014, the last practicable day prior to publication of this document).


Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is set to be rewarded for his efforts this season with a new deal at the club, according to The Sun.
The Italian manager has been the mastermind behind the Etihad Stadium club's rise to the top of the Premier League, with the Citizens just needing to beat QPR at home on Sunday to claim their first title since 1968.
The newspaper indicated that City owner Sheik Mansour will offer Mancini a four-year deal worth £22 million, with his annual salary of £5.5 million making him the joint highest paid Premier League boss alongside Sir Alex Ferguson.
Mancini will also be given a bumper transfer kitty this summer, with Robin van Persie and Eden Hazard the tactician's main targets.

Why natural ingredients?
At BERTRAND all nutrients originate from first-class natural sources such as grain, oilseeds, almond, nuts, berries, and other natural ingredients in organic quality and we meet the European reference values for nutrients with our product. Other suppliers like Soylent use synthetically produced vitamins and reach the same mark. So what speaks in favor of naturalness?
The answer is simple: We want a product that is as complete as possible. In BERTRAND we created a product that, due to its composition, offers the possibility of living on it for longer periods of time. That requires, however, the composition of the formula to be arranged in a way that ensures an optimal supply for the body with all vital nutrients. This premise can be considered generally accepted and it is shared by suppliers of synthetic products as well.
The view of suppliers of synthetic products like Soylent differs from the view of our company at the point where a statement on the level of experience of the nutrition science is being made. In the market, presently the idea is prevailing that man's nutrition has been researched in every detail and that therefore all essential nutrients were known. Exactly these essential nutrients can indeed be found in the formulas of the suppliers. Though of synthetic origin, they are there.
Nutrition science itself, however, is far less enthusiastic when it comes to evaluating their own level of experience. Just like other sciences nutrition science, too, will generate new knowledge over time. Over time further nutrients will be classified essential and the current sustenance recommendations will be replaced by new ones. Following this observation it is not wise to choose a product as a regular aliment that consists of isolated, synthetically produced vitamins and minerals.
But is BERTRAND actually any different? Our product, too, technically meets only the current target values of the EU and naturally we can not reflect future knowledge in our product's formula. What makes our product special though is that it does not consist of synthetic nutrients but of nutritious ingredients, most of which have already been consumed by man for hundreds of years and the effects of which on the human body are researched very well. We use grain, oilseeds, mushrooms, various nuts, algae, berries, and further ingredients in certified organic quality. When at some point, as research progresses, new nutrients will be classified important these will with virtual certainty already be included in the aforementioned group of ingredients. And therefore in BERTRAND as well.
The impact of synthetic vitamins and minerals on the human body have been researched to a smaller extent and ecotrophologists usually recommend not to consume any additional vitamins or minerals in form of synthetics.
In our opinion only one argument can be made in favor of synthetic vitamins in aliments, although it mainly benefits the producer: They are cheap to produce.
Organic lemon peel extract
Organic lemon peel extract The lemon (Citrus limon) is full of vitamins and is known and appreciated as a vitamin C bomb. But it would not do justice to the yellow beauty to reduce it to its vitamins alone, because it has many other benefits, such as fiber, essential oils and secondary plant components. What is often unknown and unnoticed: the lemon peel is far more beneficial than lemon juice! Because the peel not only contains more aromatic substances, but also much more nutrients. Only organic lemons are suitable for the safely consuming the peel, because a large part of the conventional herbicides and pesticides are absorbed by the peel.

Lost in Space Season 2 Review: Should you watch the Show?
By Sourabh
Lost in Space Season 2: Everything you should know!
Lost in Space is an American science fiction television series and re-imagining of the 1965 series of the same name after the adventures of a family of space colonists whose spacecraft have drifted off course.
Produced by Legendary Television, Synthesis Entertainment, Clickty-Clack Productions, and Applebox Entertainment, the show is written by Matt Sazama and Burke Sharpless,

With Jack Estrin serving as showrunner. Netflix released the series on April 13, 2018, renewing it for a second season the following month.
Lost in Space Season 2 Review: Is the show worth a watch?
The Christmas-themed opening bodes well with the season 2 premiere of Lost in Space on December 24, and seven months have passed since the shipwrecked Jupiter 2 stars a decidedly Swiss family Robinson as Will.
Lost-in-Space-Season-2-Recap
Feel in and John creates a makeshift holiday light show with bioluminescent moss. And presents artfully arranged below. Everyone is focused on surviving on the hostile planet they find themselves on,
This includes daily routines of things like caring for corn in a greenhouse protected from toxic environments, but there's a certain comfort in their lives – and maybe Complacency – even with Dr. Smith remaining confined to the quarter.
And thank goodness that Lost in Space Season 2 has given Smith a short leash! The number of chances this devious character got last year despite being caught red-handed several times was never quite believable,
And though she certainly finds ways to make herself useful this time around, it's a more believable personal journey. That includes a real chance of redemption.
The flashbacks provided to explain some of Smith's skills might feel similar to last season's, but they open the door to genuine sympathy from audiences and much-needed complexity to this utterly evil character.
Although the eventual re-introduction of the Robots offers up some of the series' strongest moments, things begin to unravel as the season ends.
An adult who spends most of his screen time discussing how badly he wants to see his family on Alpha Centauri decides to run into a lightning storm because he believes an ex.
Also, Check out Lost in Space Season 4 Release Updates!
The young boy will tell stories about his sacrifice, and then an army of robots appears from nowhere. Chaos ensues, important characters are torn apart, and pieces are put on hold for a possible third season.
It's complicated and rushed ending that doesn't offer much emotional payoff, but its teases are interesting enough that fans of the series would probably be willing to overlook the lack of a resolution.
"Lost in Space" stumbles in many ways, but with a tighter and more original narrative and more fleshed-out characters, the series could actually become a great sci-fi adventure if Netflix decides to renew it for a third season.
Will is still Riddle, Judy is the smartest, Penny is the smartest, Maureen is the genius, and John is the strongest. The fact that Lost in Space is associated with similar traits is impressive for character development.
zThe writers have always lived up to their intention – creating authentic truths behind the characters. And so, Lost in Space Season 3 is a warm farewell in the best possible way. It does not leave a sour taste at the end and gives a decisive goodbye to the fans. That's what the audience has always wanted—something that should be retained. The final season certainly does that.
