Q: Ehcahe - RMI cache replication - newly added object not displayed in UI I am relatively new to ehcache and trying to implement caching in my application (Sample application). I am currently trying to use cache replication using RMI replication for some data objects. I have 2 instances of tomcat running on same machine and same application is deployed on both instances.  I have verified that on retrieving the object cache is hitting properly and it is improving performance.
But when I create a new object on first instance and try to retrieve in second instance (there's a page which lists all the objects), a newly added object is not displayed.
I can see that object is there in the cache of second instance. Also, it is confirmed in the logs also wherein I saw the following message

2012-07-03 17:06:41,471 [RMI TCP Connection(6)-192.168.100.105] DEBUG distribution.RMICachePeer  - RMICachePeer for cache com.mycompany.session.Session: remote put received. Element is: [ key = com.mycompany.session.Session#10, value=Item{version=0,freshTimestamp=5494027884412928, version=1, hitCount=0, CreationTime = 1341315402000, LastAccessTime = 1341315402000 ]

Has anybody seen this kind of behavior before, and can they help me to understand what could be wrong?
Below mentioned are the contents of my ehcache.xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ehcache xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

</ehcache>

Second instance of tomcat also has similar ehcache configuration except diskStore path is "D://Cache2" and peer listener port is 40002.
Appreciate your help.

A: Looks like you are not setting port number in cacheManagerPeerProviderFactory. SHould we other way on server2 setting.

<cacheManagerPeerListenerFactory class="net.sf.ehcache.distribution.RMICacheManagerPeerListenerFactory"
    properties="hostName=localhost, port=50001,socketTimeoutMillis=2000"/>


"A Surprising Economic History of the World"
I take... a more materialist view of the role of religion which is that: if you look at individual religions and if you look at the theology of individual religions, it's really hard to trace through any link from that to the societies that actually believe in them. Everyone believes that there's this prohibition on lending money at interest in the Koran, for example, which is why I focused that particular chapter on Islam. And that's not really true. It's not true in the theology and it's certainly not true in the practice at the time. Indeed, if anything, there's a stronger prohibition on money lending within Christianity than there is within Islam. And I think really what matters with religion is not what the particular theology says, but just the role that that religion can play in any given society.
What I would say was instrumental in turning North America into this thriving, free-thinking, capitalist, individualistic society was not really the fact that some of the early colonists were Puritans. But that if you didn't like it, you can go and found a religion, or you can go found a colony somewhere else. If you didn't like the stifling conformity of Massachussets, you can go and find Rhode Island, or you can go to found Pennsylvania.
And one of the most important things of the Protestant Reformation within Europe was that it... created this sense of plurality that there were different decisions you could take. There were different routes you could take. There were different ways to the truth. There were different ways of thinking about things. And by challenging the primacy of any given one religious authority and one religious theology, it let people come up with their own ideas. And it also meant that when merchants and traders and so on and so forth began to grow as organized groups, they were able to have inconvenient laws and invonvenient religious rules and so on disposed of, without threatening the entire basis of a society. I think that's the most important thing about the way that religion works. It's not what the religion itself says, it's the way that it's used by authorities of any given country.

Q: Caffeine with Spring boot: How to cache a list of objects, update/delete an object using id and insert new objects to cache I am newbie at Caffeine and Spring boot. I am trying to find a solution to cache a list of objects. the DB transaction takes 3 seconds to load the list, so I am looking to cache the resultset using Caffeine. To cache each item individually, I am following the below approach, but it doesn't seem to work.
public List<Item> getAllItemsOnStartUp() {
            allItemsList = repo.getAllItems();
            for (Item item : allItemsList) {
                staticItem = item;
                getItem(item.getItmsId());
            }

        return allItemsList;
    }

    @CachePut(value = "allItems", key = "#itmsId")
    public Item getItem(BigInteger itmsId) {
        return item;
    }

@Override
@Cacheable(value = "allItems")
    public List<Item> getAllItems() {

        allItemsList = repo.getAllItems();
        return allItemsList;
    }

@Override
    @Transactional
    @CachePut(value = "allItems", key="#a0.itmsId")
    public Item insertItem(Item item) {
      Item savedItem = rRepo.save(item);
      return savedItem;
    }

When the server starts up, getAllItemsOnStartUp() must run and populate cache. the app calls getAllItems() to retrieve the list, it is expected to use cache here but every time the app gets data from DB which takes 3 seconds.

A: I saw this post today but I will answer anyway. Maybe it can help others.
Spring-boot uses by default CaffeineCache to cache service calls and it's very simple to use it. You just have to annotate your service method using @Cacheable. The example below caches the user permissions in a cache named "sso-users-cache" (because I don't want to call the service to check user's permissions all the time), creating an entry using company name (the system is multi-company) and userId, unless the method returns an error (remember: if you don't have a clausule unless, you can cache even an error of your service).
    @Cacheable(cacheNames = ["sso-users-cache"], key = "#company.concat('-sso-user-').concat(#userId)", unless = "#result instanceof T(com.github.michaelbull.result.Err)")
fun fetchActionsByOrganizationAndUser(company: String, userId: String): Result<Set<String>, String> {
    val response = Unirest
        .get(getUserPermitionsUrl(company = company, userId = userId))
        .header("Content-Type", "application/json")
        .asString()
        .ifFailure {
            logger.error("SSO Error: Get user permissions failed: context: $company : userId: $userId")
        }

    return if(response.isSuccess) {
        Ok(serializeUtil.asCollection(response.body, String::class.java).toSet())
    } else {
        Err("SSO Error: Get user permissions failed: context: $company : userId: $userId\"")
    }
}

The parameter cacheNames defines an entry in your cache while the key, will tell the name of the entry on cache (it's used because users have different permissions and they need different entries inside the cache.
The parameter unless tells the cache to not cache if my method returns an error (very important!)
About update the cache informations, it's not necessary. What you need is to invalidate the cache information in case user's permission changes. For exemple, the method below add a new permission for the user and I need to invalidate (clear) the cache I have for the specific user:
@CacheEvict(cacheNames = ["sso-user-actions-cache"], key = "#company.concat('-user-actions-').concat(#userId)")
fun addPermissionToUser(company: String, userId: String, permission: String) {
    Unirest
        .put(addUserPermitionsUrl(company = company, userId = userId, permission = permission))
        .header("Content-Type", "application/json")
        .asEmpty()
}

Again: it's important to use the property key because I want to clear only the entry for a specific user!!! Otherwise, you will clean the whole permission cache (for all users)
After the @CacheEvict, the next call to check user's permission, spring will realize that the user doesn't have an entry on cache and will call the service and cache the return. That's it.

The risks of putting your money into initial coin offerings
Dean Takahashi@deantak
Austin Hill is a Montreal investor who is worried about the ICO market.
Image Credit: Austin Hill
Austin Hill loves cryptocurrency, the new ecosystem for money that has grown up around secure and transparent technologies like blockchain. Cryptocurrency's innovations have spawned huge investor interest and spawned currencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The foundation of blockchain technology is a digital ledger, which uses a chain of distributed computers to record each transaction in a public manner. It is secure, and it enables digital transactions for virtual goods, games, and online entertainment. The secure payment system has spurred further innovations, and that people like Hill excited.
Hill has been involved in cryptocurrency for a long time. He was CEO and founder of Blockstream, which raised $77 million for its work on Bitcoin infrastructure. Now he is a venture capitalist and a partner at Brudder Ventures in Montreal.
But he is also one of a number of people who are worried about the future of cryptocurrency, since so many scam artists have moved into initial coin offerings (or ICOs). Hill is seeing so much dumb money move into the unregulated offerings, with the scammers taking the money and running. He warns that there will be a reckoning, and it could be like the dotcom crash all over again. I talked to him over the phone, and here's an edited transcript of our conversation.
Above: Cryptocurrency valuations fluctuate a lot.
Image Credit: Yourg/Shutterstock with Coinbase screenshot
VentureBeat: How are you looking at the ICO market right now?
Austin Hill: It's like the dotcom bubble all over again. An absolute clusterf*** of illegal, immoral, straight-out scams occurring on a grand scale. It seems to continue.
VB: It's definitely a gold rush. It's crazy. The SEC is stepping in, but it looks like that announcement didn't slow it down any.
Hill: The announcement and their approach on the DAO of Ethereum sent some warning, but in a similar gold-rush mentality we have entrepreneurs and teams saying, "Listen, this is literally free money." There are very real reasons why the SEC regulations exist. Some investors, some people would say, "The government has no reason to play a paternalistic function in protecting us against scams. The accredited investor rule is ridiculous. Why not let everyone participate?"
But the reality of the situation, unfortunately — I go back in this industry a long time. I started the largest and the oldest cypherpunk company in the world, doing pure and applied research into cypherpunk technologies. We tried to build Bitcoin before there was Bitcoin. We tried to build ecash. We did the early work on Tor before there was Tor. This was back in 1997. I raised $70 million in venture capital for cypherpunk technologies. I would never have sold or promised to consumers any part of that, because the technology due diligence that was required to separate fact from fiction was so incredibly high.
If you go back in history, there was a Canadian company back in 1998 called Jaws Technology that was rolling its own crypto, and it was listed publicly on the Vancouver stock exchange and Nasdaq small capitalization market, which was the epitome of a pump and dump. They solicited press, they promoted themselves, and the fundamental science was totally bogus. Every computer scientist in the world could tell you this was ridiculous. Yet retail investors put tons of money on it, because they could. It was the dotcom boom. They waved their hands in the air and said, "The world needs encryption and we've invented our own! The whole world will use ours!" Anyone who spent five minutes on it knew they were snake-oil salesmen, but they were able to access the public markets and solicit funds, and they ran a pump and dump scam.
We're seeing the same thing recreated. We're seeing a mix of well-intentioned but ignorant young entrepreneurs who see the allure of free money in an ICO. They parcel together a few white papers, and — generously — in some cases, they have the best intentions. Their goal is not to create a scam. But they don't know what they don't know yet. They're rolling an ICO out as a way to pull in free money. In other cases I would not be so generous — there are unethical people designing these ICOs as a way to milk money from unsophisticated investors.
You also have some very well-informed investors and very well-informed advisors who are out there recruiting young entrepreneurs, and they are literally telling these young entrepreneurs, "Don't bother with VC. Forget milestones. Forget proof. Forget anything. I'll help you raise $20-30 million through an ICO." These guys are taking profits out the wazoo on the back end. They're charging these companies fees. They are taking premined or founder level tokens with the ability to resell them without vesting. Because there's no transparency or accountability in the market, these guys are searching the marketplace and finding any idea that seems palatable or marketable. They run to these entrepreneurs and say, "I'll help you raise $20 million with no dilution. I'll help you do a token sale." These guys on the back end collect fees, tokens, and upside with very little risk and oftentimes work hard to not be listed or associated with the company so that the company carries all the legal and enforcement risk while they move onto the next ICO. The entire market is very broken right now.
Above: Austin Hill still believes in Bitcoin.
VB: These guys I talked to last week had a nice pitch, but there are some definite red flags with them.
Hill: I can now look back with the benefit of what I hope is wisdom, or at least history. We set up Zero Knowledge back in 1997 to develop military-grade crypto and privacy on the internet. We purposely set up in Canada, because Canada was more favorable than the U.S. for exporting crypto. At the time the U.S. government had blocked PGP and was preventing the export of crypto.
This jurisdictional arbitrage that's going on is interesting. But at the end of the day it's not going to matter. Even though most of these ICOs try to base themselves in Switzerland, based on the Ethereum example — Vitalik [Buterin] and Ethereum searched for a jurisdiction that would give them a free pass, and they found that in the Zug valley. Most of these crypto ICOs play jurisdictional arbitrage and try to set themselves up in the right jurisdiction.
But the U.S. government doesn't care. The Hatch Act as interpreted by the SEC carries a very big and wide stick when they decide to use it. Frankly, the U.S. government has done this before. They did it with poker online. They started arresting executives who landed in the U.S. They grabbed them off planes. You landed in Texas? We're arresting you for running a gambling site. I think we'll see that in this ICO market.
There's a huge amount of legal risk. But at the end of the day, the legal risk is a small thing compared to the actual risk, which is that building startups is hard. I've been a venture capitalist. I've been an angel investor. I've sat on the other side of the table and looked at what it takes to build a successful company or a successful team. It's hard to get right.
If you look at the recent reports out of the Kauffman Foundation, something like four percent of venture capital funds account for 95 percent of returns. Picking a winning team is really hard. Picking a team that can produce software is just as hard. The average consumer — if you're marketing or promoting a retail investment in a startup, they have no ability to assess that risk. What ends up happening is, your primary goal is speculation versus innovation. That's bad for the industry.
In addition there are tons of risks associated with giving companies too much capital without strong governance. There are exit risks and future financing risks. I think many of these companies raising funds through ICOs are closing the door to traditional M&A exit paths, and should they need capital in the future will be shut out of most major forms of traditional financing. Once you do an ICO, it may very well be the last financing a company will ever be able to do. If everything goes well and the tokens still have value in two years, then maybe it works out for a few, but a majority of these will probably run out of funds and be left without options.

Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a global public health challenge on the same scale as tuberculosis, HIV, and malaria, says the International Coalition to Eliminate HBV (ICE-HBV) in a new study published in The Lancet on April 10, 2019.
Following extensive consultation with more than 50 scientists from across the globe, the ICE-HBV has identified gaps in their current knowledge.
Moreover, the ICE-HBV says new strategies and tools are required to realize a cure for patients with HBV.
This is important news since over 250 million people worldwide are chronically infected with hepatitis B virus, and even though a prophylactic vaccine and effective antiviral therapies are available, no cure currently exists.
The ultimate aim of HBV cure regimens should be the eradication of the virus and all its replicative intermediates.
However, since even natural clearance of acute HBV does not always result in eradication of the reservoir cccDNA, complete eradication may be an unrealistic outcome.
Functional cure, defined as "sustained durable HBsAg loss with undetectable serum DNA allowing treatment cessation" may be a more realistic goal.
A combination of strategies which target both the viral replication cycle and enhance the immune response to viral antigens will most likely be required.
There is also a pressing need for the establishment of repositories of standardized HBV reagents and protocols that can be accessed by all HBV researchers throughout the world.
The HBV cure research agenda outlined in this position paper will contribute markedly to the goal of eliminating HBV infection worldwide.
Hepatitis B is a serious disease caused by a virus that attacks the liver. This virus can cause lifelong infection, cirrhosis (scarring) of the liver, liver cancer, liver failure, and death, says the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Ready, Steady, Thrive!
PrevPreviousEsmée Fairbairn Year 1
Next3 Years of Esmée Fairbairn FundingNext
A pioneering mental health project is underway in Plymouth in which people with significant and long-term mental health problems are not just benefitting from the Ready Steady Thrive initiative but are helping to deliver it as well. Dan, a former chef, has spent the last four and a half years unemployed, fighting cancer and suffering from depression. Dan admits that at times he was unsure whether he would 'make it' but today, he is free-of-cancer, invigorated by exercise and about to start a new career. Dan who took part in the first course of Ready Steady Thrive last autumn says it helped to turn his life around:
"My life has been a bit of a train wreck really and a year ago, I hit a really dark depression and things were spiralling out of control. I was struggling with another bout of cancer; in pain and not exercising; nothing. Now, I'm not even the same guy and Ready Steady Thrive has just been a cog in the whole recovery plan but it's a really important cog and from that I'm doing alright now."
One in four of us will experience a mental health problem each year. For some it may be a short-term affliction; others may learn to manage their illness perhaps with medication, counselling or both but, for some less fortunate, it can ruin their lives. Ready Steady Thrive helps people get back on their feet by following 'the five ways to well-being'. Working through five weekly two-hour zoom sessions it aims to give people basic tools to manage life's daily ups and downs and help them look forward, one manageable step at a time.
Georgie admits, when she started the course, she was on the edge of a breakdown but with help from her peers, she has been able to overcome some of her fears: "I've always struggled to answer the telephone in case it was a male on the other end and we were doing one of the practical parts of the session and someone said, 'think of a funny face when you answer the phone; one that will make you laugh' and now I do that every time I answer the phone."
Georgie admits that one of the biggest lessons she has learnt from the course is to be thankful for things, no matter how small or insignificant. Every night and every morning she writes in her Gratitude Book, she's now on her second; "It keeps me on a level and on 'down days' I can look back and see what I've done: even if it's something silly like I did the ironing, then it goes in the book, because what it shows is that I got off my bum and did the ironing! It's little things that most people will say 'that's stupid' but no, it's not stupid; it's what is needed in some people's lives and I definitely needed it."
Being alongside other people who are also experiencing their own challenges enables the individuals to learn from each other, to offer each other possible solutions and coping-strategies. For Dan it has had such a profound effect on his health; his confidence and his life that he is now volunteering as a peer-facilitator on the course; "You have to buy into it and put your trust in the process," says Dan. "If you're not mentally well then it's really hard to do any of these things, but the course has been designed to help you. My support network has grown and when things go wrong now, I'm just about mentally able to cope with it."
Ready Steady Thrive – which is delivered by the Positive People project under the POP umbrella – is unique to Plymouth and Torbay. It is funded by the Big Lottery Community Fund and the European Social Fund until September 2022.

Snooping bill flawed, but left's hysteria over Internet law is hypocrisy
Lorrie Goldstein
Updated: February 15, 2012 10:23 PM EDT
There are good reasons to oppose Stephen Harper's proposed Protecting Children from Internet Predators Act — which is about a lot more than pursuing just child pornographers.
But before we consider them — and why so-called "liberals" and "progressives" are the least credible critics on this issue — let's be clear on what the act will and won't do.
It won't allow police to monitor personal Internet, e-mail and cellphone communications.
That, as it always has, will require a warrant issued by a judge, except for rare circumstances involving things like kidnapping and bomb threats, the authority for which already exists in law.
It will compel Internet service providers to give to police information they now voluntarily provide 95% of the time — albeit more slowly than police like — making it easier for police to obtain search warrants.
That information is the individual's name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, Internet Protocol (IP) address and the local service provider identifier — hardly state secrets for anyone who uses the Internet, or a phone book.
It would compel Internet providers to set up temporary access and storage files to requested data, since such information now often disappears while the police are trying to obtain warrants.
Despite government assurances the bill increases safeguards against unwarranted invasions of privacy, compelling a third party to give information about someone to the police, without a warrant, is always a concern.
As a conservative who's suspicious of the power of the state, especially of what can happen when police operate without meaningful judicial and civilian oversight, I'm not convinced of the wisdom of the law, as written.
Public Safety Minister Vic Toews' suggestion you're either with the government or the pornographers isn't helpful.
Privacy commissioners have raised legitimate concerns about the bill, especially the potential for abuse, as it's hardly unknown for police and security forces to stretch the limits of any new power they acquire.
That said, to pretend Internet crime can be fought with the investigative tools of a century ago, as many of the bill's critics are, is absurd.
Many Western democracies have already passed legislation of the type the Harper government is proposing, although that doesn't mean we should follow their example blindly.
The job is to strike a balance between public safety and the right to privacy.
But the utter hysteria over this bill coming from "liberals," "progressives" (including "Progressive Conservatives"), and others on the left, who have always supported increasing the power of the state, is the height of hypocrisy.
These are the people who cheered for decades while human rights commissions were allowed to run amok.
They applauded as these bodies went far beyond their original, legitimate mandate of fighting discrimination in employment and housing, to become kangaroo courts, unfairly prosecuting people for hate speech based on the hurt feelings of others.
These are the people who push for hauling law-abiding parents who judiciously spank their children, before the criminal courts, as if we don't already have plenty of laws to deal with parents who terrorize, beat and abuse their children, which, ironically, are woefully under-enforced.
Finally, these are the folks who perpetually advocate for the state intruding ever more into our lives.
Clearly, they should have been more careful about what they wished for.

Q: Python Programming Review I searched and just found some closed threads, but I was wondering if there is anywhere that I could upload some code that I wrote, just to have someone look at it and show me what I could change or if there is another way that I could go about what I was trying to accomplish.
I have been self teaching for about 7 months and couldn't think of any programs to write for practice, then the accounting dept was saying that they wished blah, blah, blah....anyways, I decided to try to write a program for it, and I just finished it.  I'm pretty excited, but I'm sure there are things that could have been simplified....
I'm not familiar with Git or Gerrit to upload there, if there are any sites that do that (For Free) then please point me in that direction...or I can copy here, if someone is willing to take a look...
Thanks!

Xbox One's hard drive can't be removed, but USB port supports extra storage
By John Callaham Neowin @JCalmn · May 21, 2013 20:04 EDT · Hot! with 91 comments
The hard drive inside Microsoft's newly revealed Xbox One game console includes 500 GB of storage space, which is certainly a lot more than what's currently available for the Xbox 360, but Microsoft has designed the Xbox One so that its hard drive is inaccessible to most of its owners.
According to an Engadget story, Albert Penello, Microsoft's senior director of product planning, confirmed that Xbox One owners will not be able to remove, replace or upgrade the console's hard drive on their own. No specific reason was given for this decision. While the first Xbox console had a non-removable storage drive, both the original Xbox 360 and the current Xbox 360 S had proprietary hard drives that could be quickly removed and replaced by their users.
Good news for heavy gamers and those want to download and store a bunch of movies on the Xbox One, however: Penello confirmed the console's USB 3.0 port will allow external hard drives to be connected and that those drives are allowed to store all of the data types that the internal hard drive supports, including Xbox One game installs and downloads.

Pace, power and playing on the edge have son of former Derby County star on track at Manchester City
Derby County news - Liam Delap is a name for himself after scoring a stunning goal for the Premier League champions
Matt DaviesDigital Sports Journalist (Social Media)

The son of former Derby County star Rory Delap appears to be on the track for success after making the move to Manchester City.
Liam Delap left the Rams Academy last summer to move to the North West and he scored a brilliant goal in their 6-0 win against Stoke City this week to help lift the Under-18 Premier League Cup.
Delap got the second of the night as the 17-year-old forward slalomed across the box evading tackle after tackle before finding the bottom corner.
It was a goal full of pace, power and precision.
"My pace and my power are my two biggest strengths. My strength helps me a lot to get into goalscoring opportunities. When I'm in those I can finish most of the time," he told the Manchester Evening News.

Gary Rowett's message to the fans ahead of 'big game' against Derby County
"I've always been quite fast but I had a bad back injury about two to three years ago so I was in the gym loads then and got a lot of my strength. I've got faster through that because I couldn't play football so I just worked on that and that helped a lot. It was just working through it, making sure I did everything right to make sure I came out better at the other end of it.
"I've always been one of the tall ones in the group, I'm 6ft 1in. I had a scan on my foot and my growth plates but I usually grow in the summer so I might grow, I might not. Hopefully!"
Delap admits he plays on the edge having been booked in six of his 11 appearances for the club.
However, he says pushing the boundaries is a factor in his success.
"It's always been a part of my game. I need it in my game," he said.

"When I'm on that edge it's when I'm at my best, it's just not tipping over that edge and everyone has told me that they'd never want to take it out of me, it's just controlling that final tipping point of what is acceptable and what's not.
"You can't really teach it, it's just something I have and I'm so grateful that I've got it but it's just now working a mechanism that I can control it to keep myself on the pitch.
"I've got a lot better. I was a lot worse when I was younger so I think it's just maturing and understanding what's right."
Delap Jnr grew up watching his dad play for Stoke and he will be well aware of his work for Derby, both as a player and coach.

In the Line of Fire: A Memoir
by Pervez MusharrafPervez Musharraf
According to Time magazine, Pakistan's President Pervez Musharraf holds "the world's most dangerous job." He has twice come within inches of assassination. His forces have caught more than 670 members of al Qaeda in the mountains and cities, yet many others remain at large and active, including Osama bin Laden and Ayman Al Zawahiri. Long locked in a deadly embrace with its nuclear neighbor India, Pakistan has come close to full-scale war on two occasions since it first exploded a nuclear bomb in 1998. As President Musharraf struggles for the security and political future of his nation, the stakes could not be higher for the world at large.
It is unprecedented for a sitting head of state to write a memoir as revelatory, detailed, and gripping as In the Line of Fire. Here, for the first time, readers can get a firsthand view of the war on terror in its central theater. President Musharraf details the manhunts for Osama and Zawahiri and their top lieutenants, complete with harrowing cat-and-mouse games, informants, interceptions, and bloody firefights. He tells the stories of the near-miss assassination attempts, not only against himself but against Shaukut Aziz (later elected prime minister) and one of his top army officers (later the vice chief of army staff), and of the abduction and beheading of Daniel Pearl -- as well as the forensic and shoe-leather investigations that uncovered the perpetrators. He details the army's mountain operations that have swept several valleys clean, and he talks about the areas of North Waziristan where al Qaeda is still operating.
Yet the war on terror is just one of the many headline-making subjects in In the Line of Fire. The full story of the events that brought President Musharraf to power in 1999 is told for the first time. He reveals new details of the 1999 confrontation with India in Kashmir (the Kargil conflict) and offers a proposal for resolving the Kashmir dispute.
He offers a portrait of Mullah Omar, with stories of Pakistan's attempts to negotiate with him. Concerning A. Q. Khan and his proliferation network, he explains what the government knew and when it knew it, and he reveals fascinating details of Khan's operations and the investigations into them.
In addition, President Musharraf takes many stances that will make news. He calls for the Muslim world to recognize Israel once a viable Palestinian state is created. He urges the repeal of Pakistan's 1979 Hudood law. He calls for the emancipation of women and for their full political equality with men. He tells the sad story of Pakistan's experience with democracy and what he has done to make it workable.
Pervez Musharraf's life has mirrored the life of his country, ever since Pakistan's creation when he was a four-year-old boy. His and Pakistan's stories are dramatic, fateful, and crucial to the entire world.
…despite its limits as a window into history, In the Line of Fire offers valuable insights—sometimes intentionally, sometimes not—about an important U.S. partner in the war on terrorism whose powerful, secretive military-intelligence apparatus was once the Taliban's chief patron…In his writing, as in many of his public comments, Musharraf can prove both his own best salesman and his own worst enemy. Still, this memoir tells us a great deal about a military Muslim leader we need to understand—and about a country to which we should have been paying much more attention.
Pamela Constable
Pakistan, the second-largest Muslim state (after Indonesia), a nuclear power, and an uneasy neighbor of India, Afghanistan, and Iran, is fated to play a demanding diplomatic game -- one never more demanding nor more in the public eye than in the years after 9/11. This is the autobiography of the professional military officer who has been calling the shots for Pakistan since 1999, when he seized power in what he calls a "counter coup." As with any memoir by a public figure, especially one still in power, this is more an apologia than a rounded history, but it is an especially good example of the genre. It reveals clearly the mindset of this military man and addresses openly major issues: Musharraf's controversial role in the 1999 Kargil conflict, which brought Pakistan to the brink of full-scale war with India; the case of the Pakistani nuclear scientist A. Q. Khan; the promising but ultimately disappointing negotiations with India; and, most of all, the changed relations with Islamists at home and abroad provoked by the post-9/11 American appeal (or ultimatum).
The Pakistani leader recounts a life steered by "luck and destiny" and vigorously defends and promotes his nation to the world. A turning point in Musharraf's well-written memoir comes when he recalls one of many attempts to remove him from the scene. In 1999, former leader Nawaz Sharif engineered a bizarre coup that hinged on keeping Musharraf, then commander of the Pakistani military, from leading the army against him by preventing his plane from landing on Pakistani soil. Eventually landing with only a few minutes' worth of fuel to spare, Musharraf borrowed a flak jacket, coordinated the arrest of the coup leaders and took control of a country that, he ruefully acknowledges, has not done its best to be a democracy. Clearly, by Musharraf's account, he's working to improve matters; he advocates religious freedom, gender equality and freedom of speech, and urges that if Pakistan is to move toward prosperity and international influence, it will "have to suppress extremism and intolerance and eradicate them from our society." Such opinions have inspired several assassination attempts, and Musharraf's efforts at destroying al-Qaeda strongholds within the country, which he describes in much detail, have earned him new enemies. Yet the now widely reported news in this memoir is another confrontation: Following 9/11, he writes, the American ambassador presented him with a list of demands that he found unacceptable, among them "blanket overflight and landing rights" that were, he believed, tantamount to a surrender of national sovereignty. Daring to stand up earned him what he describes as "the most undiplomatic statement ever made" on the part of U.S. deputy secretary of state Richard Armitage,who repeated his boss's for-us-or-for-the-terrorists formula and warned that "if we chose the terrorists, then we should be prepared to be bombed back to the Stone Age."Pakistan, Musharraf insists, is doing what it can to contain Islamist terrorism. Time will tell, but his memoir sheds much light on the politics and challenges of the region.

From this book, one gets not just Mushrrar's background, but an insight into his personality. Since it is an autobiography, you get his views on issues, whether right or wrong. Some events and issues may be covered more lightly than a reader would like. Still, a book like this does give an insight into the author's beliefs.
I think that people should stop criticizing the governenment of Pakistan. I personally was born and raised in the Gulf but have close connections with people that are from Pakistan. In no way do i think that the military is controlling Pakistani civilians. I think that the government has dramatically improved since the rise of Musharaf. The corrution is there but is been limited to a certain level. In order for us to learn about the country, we have to look at it from the point of view of the person that runs the country itself. He is not bias and has seen many different instances in his years as a politician. He should be applauded for his ability to stand on his own, against some of the most powerful countries out there. I think people should be open-minded and willing to learn about other politicians, as they read the book.
This is the first time,I read any biography,and I really like it. Personal,suspenseful,tragic at times hilarious.Good job!
I am actually and Indian - I really couldn't put this great book down, even my wife enjoyed reading it. Really leaves you breathless. Brutally honest man!
A must read written by the general a very candid account of his life and events. His remarks about United States are little worrisome in the sense that US may not appreciate his boldness and Pakistan will have to suffer some lack of friendliness from US, which they may not afford. Overall an impressive effort and example for politicians in India and Asia and third world to emulate to be open and bold and share what do you know and what one thinks. I would rate the book as ahead of its time may be atleast 10-15 years ahead of its time.
Its been ages that read a book or two but when I got this book and started reading, I just couldn't stop. For the first time, someone has not only openly pin-pointed the reasons why we haven't progressed as we should have and how my country's political machinery is only working towards their personal gains and nothing more.. He openly admitted that he had to put 'Pakistan First' which has never been done before.. The ex-premiers both Nawaz Sharif n Benazir Bhutto have always put themselves first by robbing the country and taking bread out of the poors and building palatial palaces abroad. Before Musharraf came to power, Pakistanis has lost hope. I'm an extremely patriotic guy and I was hopeless too. But after he came to power and despite so many problems that he had to face at every front, there is hope now.. We can feel that despite everything Westerners may have been led to believe but there is a sense of change. Moderates who always kept quite are speaking out and taking Mullahs head on.. West may not like it that he's a military man but you need to see how he was forced into taking charge of this country. You may call him dictator of some sort but believe me, He's the best option we have. If he continues for atleast ten more years, I'm sure Pakistan will be a much different and prosperous place.. Inshallah..
I found the book to be very interesting, giving me insight into a man who is leading the war on terrorism as a head of nuclear muslim state. Don't rate the book 5 stars just because you are Pakistani and 1 star if you are indian. Read the book first. Since the book is about him, he has the right to say whatever he wants, if you don't agree write your own memoir regadless of being either Pakistan's opposition or being an Indain. I give this book two thumps up. Most of what he said about Kargil issue matches what the Austrailian writer Brian Cloughley wrote in his book A History of Pakistan Army.
Though defensive of his actions and somewhat biased in his portrayal of an incorruptible military,the book is still an excellent insight into the workings of power in Pakistans political landscape.To his credit Musharraf demonstrates a degree of candor in explaining his international policy decisions.Overall an engaging book.
An excellent move by this sensible army man turned politician. Its about time people know the truth what really happens in these 3rd world countries. It¿s an excellent opportunity that some one while in the office of president has had the courage to tell the people around the world how a country was run under him & prior to his leadership.
Great job. I knew that he has done so much for Pakistan but this book tells me exactly how this was achieved. Also this is the classic example of how to fight terror most effectively. There could be many thriller movies based on this book. Must read for every one who is interested in current affairs of war on terror.
this is a true story of an honest man who want to help his country where opposition is an evil part of humanity and money/power hungry. i read the entire book and very much impressed. book has been written in very professional and interesting way which no leader has ever written.it has proved that musharaf is a media-charmmer. we need leaders like him all over the world. after reading this book non-muslims may have a different view about islam and my request to all indian readers , please be open mind and read as a neutral person. as musharaf has done too much good to india by making pakistan a stable country. pakistan was the poorest country in the world before musharaf took over and now pakistan is a donor country to like afghanistan and african countries. thats a big turn arround..iam impressed and so is my community in pakistan. musharraf has given a huge freedom to non-muslims in pakistan which no leaders have given us ever..God Bless him
This is the time ever in the history of pakistan that someone has stood up to tell the truth. Books goes in a real detail of kargil, what US has done with pakistan and how musharaf has reduced the corruption in the country. Must read this book. It will change the your way of thinking toward pakistan and US.
This books is very interesting and informative,it covers so many topics which are the hottest ones and everyone wants to know the inner story like Dr A.Q khan,9/11 war on terrorism,talibaan,about the politicans of pakistan like benazir and nawaz sharif,extremism,.this book also shows the great leadership qualities of the president.
This book, about its timing of publication, seems to be a trap. Well laid out for him to suffer in future. This would be interesting to find out as to who actually 'prompted' him to lay things bare, as he has done. He is not only 'in the line of fire', but has played with fire, by writing about Kargil, and Pakistani Atomic Program, among other things. One can safely predict many a rebuttals coming out soon, especially from India.
Finally the truth comes out. Reader must keep a neutral mind when reading this book. The Indian readers need to keep their biased comments out.
I really enjoyed reading the book. I would highly recommend this for book lovers.
Pakistan¿s president says in his memoir that he had no choice after the Sept. 11 attacks but to switch from supporting the Taliban to backing the U.S.-led war on terror groups or face an American ¿onslaught.¿Gen. Pervez Musharraf, in his book ¿In The Line of Fire,¿ also criticizes the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, saying it has made the world ¿more dangerous.¿ Unusual in publishing a memoir while still in power, Musharraf says Pakistan, the United States and Saudi Arabia created an extremist 'monster' by supporting Islamic groups fighting the Soviet Union's 1979-89 occupation of Afghanistan. 'We had assisted in the rise of the Taliban after the Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan, which was then callously abandoned by the United States,' Musharraf says. It was within this vacuum that Osama bin Laden and his al-Qaida terror network strengthened, thanks to the support of the Taliban's leader, Mullah Omar, he adds.Pakistan saw the Taliban as a means to end years of chaos in Afghanistan, which peaked during the 1992-96 civil war, says Musharraf, who came to power in a 1999 coup. He says Islamabad also saw the Taliban as a counter to Afghanistan's Northern Alliance, which favoured Pakistan's rival, India. But after the Sept. 11 attacks, Musharraf says, he realized continuing to support the Taliban and have ties with militant groups would set Pakistan on a collision course with Washington. 'America was sure to react violently, like a wounded bear,' Musharraf writes. 'If the perpetrator turned out to be al-Qaida, then that wounded bear would come charging straight toward us.' The day after the suicide plane attacks, Musharraf says, U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell telephoned with an ultimatum: 'You are either with us or against us.' The next day, he says, Powell's then deputy, Richard Armitage, telephoned the chief of Pakistan's top spy agency, the Directorate of Inter Services Intelligence, with an even sterner warning. 'In what has to be the most undiplomatic statement ever made, Armitage . . . told the director general not only that we had to decide whether we were with America or with the terrorists, but that if we chose the terrorists, then we should be prepared to be bombed back to the Stone Age,' He also worried about nuclear-armed India, with which Pakistan has fought three wars since their 1947 independence from Britain, including two over the disputed Himalayan region of now divided Kashmir. 'The Indians might have been tempted to undertake a limited offensive there (Kashmir) or more likely they would work with the United States and the United Nations to turn the present situation into a permanent status quo,' Musharraf writes. 'The United States would certainly have obliged.' He adds: 'It is no secret that the United States has never been comfortable with a Muslim country acquiring nuclear weapons and the Americans undoubtedly would have taken the opportunity of an invasion to destroy such weapons.' Musharraf says he thus cut Pakistan's support for the Taliban, despite a possible backlash from radical Islamic groups in his country. Why should we put our national interest on the line for a primitive regime that would be defeated?' he asks. 'Self-interest and self-preservation were the basis of this decision.' But Musharraf disputes Bush's argument that the world is safer following the invasion of Iraq, saying he opposed the war because he 'feared it would exacerbate extremism, as it has most certainly done. . . . The world has become far more dangerous.' Musharraf details some of the 670 arrests of al-Qaida suspects in Pakistan, including the killers of U.S. journalist Daniel Pearl. But he also concedes al-Qaida and Taliban militants still operate in his country, while repeating his insistence that he has no knowledge of the whereabouts of top fugitives, including bin Laden and Omar. 'If I had to guess, I would assume that he (bin Laden) is moving back and forth across the Pakistan-Afghanistan border somewh
I read the book cover to cover and found it extremely helpful in understanding the political situation in Pakistan and its effect on the world's polictics. Its a must read for the any person of any age and especially the politicians and students. Good job Pres. Musharraf.
Excellent book indeed. Simple style and substantive. Some naive tendencies of the general very apparent.Some surprise revelations to contradict popular myths and fiction. Shows our strengths.
I think this is the first time we heard the real Kargil story without any propanganda. Although Kargil did not turn out as excatly planned by Pakistan Army, nevertheless it taught India a good lesson.It was India which had been gradually taking away land from Paksitan after every winter retreat. Kargil was an attempt by Pakistan Army to reverse that. If Pakistan's prime minister had not caved in to US pressure, Pakistan could have been in a very strong position to force India to resolve the long standing Kashmir dispute.
I read the book and found it very exiciting. I regret that civilian government had to retreat from Kargil. We had the full opertunity to free kashmir from occuping indians. I love the fact that he leashed indians.
Excellent book to read with a lot information. Astonishingly revealing and honest book with a lot of infomation to read. General is very bright and smart for all the decisions he made in the War on Terror and being a great American friend and ally.
it tells you what an honest leader goes thru to fight corruption in third world country. i have read few chapters soo far and very impresed with honesty and truth. it is the truth that musharaf is living a very dangerous life. being in pakistani army as a commando and then as a cheif of army and later as president is very dangerous where opposition who knows no boundries to steal and cheat. i think musharf has given us a very clear picture in his book.(its worth making of a movie). i think this book is saying it all as i have read other books from opposition and so far musharaf is the best thing happened since pakistan was made and i have no doubts about his honesty. after reading more i can say its a sad thing that opposition will go this far to get power and money and will try to break their own country. leaders who were corrupt and were kicked out of country will unite with their enimies to get power
a book from a person who was and is involved in all the major and infulential events of this century so far, has to to be somthing special and i am disappointed .

Shiloh Christian School
By Randy Hoffman (admin) | Last Modified: October 15, 2018
Shiloh Christian School is a private school located at 1915 Shiloh Drive in northeastern Bismarck near Pebble Creek Golf Course. Shiloh serves all grade levels K-12. It serves about 500 students.
Shiloh began operations in September 1978 with 7 full-time and 2 part-time teachers serving 43 students (sources vary, but original Tribune article cites 43) in grades Kindergarten through 10th. It is strictly private with no federal or state funding.
For the first few months, Shiloh shared a building with Bethel Assembly of God in the Conrad Building at 4909 9th Street S.E. in Mandan, but was forced to relocated when the building is marked for demolition in a project improving Memorial Bridge access on the west side. It relocates to Mandan's Baptist Temple Church.
Within months of opening, the school announced plans to expand to Grade 12 with 500 enrolled students. Enrollment numbers prove optimistic, however, with 90 students by the start of its third year in 1980.
In 1981, Shiloh had its first graduating class – 5 seniors.
In 1989, Shiloh later relocates to 6117 E Main Avenue in Bismarck. It again relocated, in 1996, into its current facility on a 43-acre campus. An additional building was added to its south in 2003. An $8.5 million athletic complex with a track, football/soccer field, and basement diamonds was completed in 2013.

Do our waking thoughts influence the day ahead of us?
In the Psalms David talks often of how his waking thoughts are about his relationship with God. His words may seem over the top to us. For example, in the passage above he compares his soul to musical instruments that need to wake up and play music to God. Too noisy an idea? Elsewhere he says that he gets up before the dawn to pray. His mind is on the things of God before he goes through his daily routine. "In the morning I lay my requests before you", he wrote (Psalm 5:3).
Of course, there are so many distractions before we begin our day. The children must be fed and dressed for school. The television is on already and we want to listen to the news and traffic. Apparently 30% of UK smartphone users check for messages or play games while still in bed before saying "Good morning" to their partner. Maybe there is medicine to be taken, or a loved one to care for. Or washing to put in the machine before going to work. We're running late and rushing for the train. Or we just need the extra five minutes in bed. It's understandable.
The Bible tells us that God continues his relationship with us while we are asleep and as soon as we wake up. In his love for us God does not get weary, nor does he rest or sleep. "His compassions never fail. They are new every morning." (Lamentations 3:22-23 NIV UK). We wake up to God's mercy and grace.
We all have different demands on our time each day. Perhaps our normal opportunity to pray and study is in the evening or at another point. It does not mean that we cannot wake up thinking about God's grace. Perhaps, if we do, we'll feel more excited about the day ahead, as David sometimes was. Or at least more ready to face the day. Let your day be influenced by God's loving relationship with you.
Father, thank you that each day I wake up to your grace. Help me to celebrate our relationship each morning and to think of you before I start the day ahead. In Jesus' name.

Creating Future Young Entrepreneur in the New Normal: The Role of Facilitative Law, Normative Support, and Entrepreneurial Knowledge
Nurul Hidayana Mohd Noor
Mahazril 'Aini Yaacob
Noralina Omar
Fostering entrepreneurship in the country has been the main national agenda since entrepreneurship helps to increase economic growth, reduce unemployment, and support modernization. In Malaysia, there is almost 14 million youth population in 2021 and they are the sources of future entrepreneurs. Promoting entrepreneurship among youths is critical in achieving the goal of the Malaysian government in becoming an entrepreneurial country by 2030. Hence, understanding youth perception about contextual factors that support entrepreneurship intention can be a contribution to the advancement of more active approaches and systems to support the goals. The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) is the predominant theory that examines the impact of contextual factors on entrepreneurship intention. Based on TPB, the purpose of this study is to examine the influence of facilitative law, normative support, and entrepreneurial knowledge on the entrepreneurship intention of the younger generation. In the study, a model was recommended and empirically examined on a sample of 248 Malaysian youths. The results of the survey showed that all factors affect the entrepreneurship intention of youths and entrepreneurial knowledge emerged as the main significant predictor. The paper contributes to the literature by empirically testing how some factors such as individual, community, and country-level factors may affect the entrepreneurship intention during the new normal era. The outcomes of the study may have valuable connotations for policymakers, practitioners, and future researchers.

War is over, type of rule will be clear soon: Taliban spokesman

The war is over and the type of rule and the form of regime will be clear soon, a Taliban spokesperson said on Sunday as they takeover Afghan Presidential palace.
"We assure everyone that we will provide safety for citizens and diplomatic missions. We are ready to have a dialogue with all Afghan figures and will guarantee them the necessary protection," spokesman Mohammad Naeem told Aljazeera news channel.
Al-Jazeera livestreamed the Taliban triumphant speech from inside the Presidential Palace in Kabul, showing a group of Taliban fighters sitting at the president's desk before a fighter claimed he was a former inmate of the US-controlled Guantanamo Bay detention centre in Cuba.
He said the group does not think foreign forces will repeat "their failed experience in Afghanistan again."
He continued: "We move with responsibility in every step and make sure to have peace with everyone... We are ready to deal with the concerns of the international community through dialogue."
US-backed Afghan President Ashraf Ghani said in a Facebook post after fleeing that he escaped Afghanistan to prevent a flood of bloodshed.
Foreigners in Kabul were told to either leave or register their presence with Taliban administrators.
Timeline of Taliban's sweeping offensive
The Taliban entered Afghanistan's capital Kabul, capping a sweeping military campaign as US-led foreign forces pull out of the country, AFP reports.
Here is a look at the offensive that began in May after the US President Joe Biden announces complete pullout plan.
In early May, NATO begins a final withdrawal of its mission in Afghanistan involving 9,600 soldiers, 2,500 of them American.
Intense fighting soon breaks out between the Taliban and government forces in the southern province of Helmand. A bomb blast outside a girls' school on May 8 in Kabul kills 85, mostly pupils. The deadliest attack in a year is blamed on the Taliban, though they do not claim it.
US forces withdraw from one of Afghanistan's largest air bases in Kandahar, the country's second-biggest city, in mid-May. The insurgents then seize districts in Wardak province near Kabul, and in the key province of Ghazni, which straddles roads connecting the capital to Kandahar.
By mid-June they have captured several districts in northern provinces, forcing military retreats.
The Taliban take control of the main Shir Khan Bandar border crossing with Tajikistan on June 22, prompting the Central Asian country to check the combat readiness of its armed forces.
Officials on July 2 announce the departure of all American and NATO troops from Bagram, Afghanistan's biggest air base, which served as the linchpin of US-led operations in the country for two decades.
Two days later, the Taliban seize the key district of Panjwai in Kandahar, the insurgents' birthplace and former bastion. The Taliban announce the capture of Islam Qala, Afghanistan's biggest border crossing with Iran, on July 9.
On July 14, the insurgents take control of the Spin Boldak border crossing with Pakistan, a major trade route between the two countries.
The Taliban offensive escalates sharply with a new focus on urban centres as the insurgents attack the cities of Lashkar Gah, Kandahar and Herat.
The United States and Britain say the Taliban may have committed war crimes, accusing the insurgents of "massacring civilians" in the town of Spin Boldak.
Eight people are killed on August 3 in a coordinated Taliban-claimed bomb and gun attack targeting the Afghan defence minister and several lawmakers in Kabul.
The Taliban shoot dead the head of the Afghan government's media information centre at a mosque in the capital on August 6.
The Taliban capture their first Afghan provincial capital, the city of Zaranj in southwestern Nimroz, "without a fight".
In the following days, several other northern cities fall: Sheberghan, Kunduz, Sar-e-Pul, Taloqan, Aibak, Farah and Pul-e-Khumri.
Despite the bloodshed and sweeping advances, US President Joe Biden gives no suggestion he will delay the troop withdrawal, which is to be completed by August 31, ahead of the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
Afghan President Ashraf Ghani flies to the besieged northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif on August 11 to rally his forces.
But his visit is overshadowed by the surrender of hundreds of Afghan soldiers in nearby Kunduz and the overnight capture of a ninth provincial capital, Faizabad.
The Taliban capture Ghazni, 150 kilometres (90 miles) southwest of Kabul, on August 12.
Herat falls in the west the same day, and a day later the Taliban capture Kandahar and Lashkar Gah in the south.
The cities of Asadabad and Gardez follow on Saturday with Mazar-i-Sharif, which Ghani had visited just three days earlier.
Jalalabad is taken over by the insurgents early on Sunday, leaving Kabul the only remaining major Afghan city still under government control. Ghani flees the country, reportedly to Tajikistan.

In summer 1991, with my friend Jeff, I drove the length of the Baja California peninsula to observe a total solar eclipse. Baja is basically the world's biggest sand bar - 60 miles wide, 1,100 miles long, still waters full of sting-rays to the east, waves and gray whales to the west, brushy desert in the middle.
Once you get past the beach towns where Southern Californians go to surf and party, there's nothing much on it except a few places to stop and get tacos de pescado and a very grim zoo. Highway 1 itself, which Mexico opened to screaming ATVs and puttering VW buses in the 1970s, is now dry and cracked and covered in gaping potholes. Along the curves in the road rest collections of funerary tributes to vehicles that have plummeted over the side.
That drive was like heading out onto a giant, rickety jetty to achieve the right vantage point from which to view a celestial event, or rather to obtain a vantage point from which to see around the global climate and into outer space. As it turned out we were lucky; of about only five places in the world from which to see the eclipse, Baja was the only one that didn't cloud over. Later I read that the entire cast of the original Star Trek, on hand as ever to lend legitimacy to celestial events, had a large and public gathering to watch the eclipse in Hawaii, only to be disappointed.
We watched it from La Paz, a small city of 150,000 on the eastern coast of the peninsula about 100 miles from the tip.
