Introduction to the Payment Request API
We're in the process of restructuring our PWA training resources.
You can use the materials linked to from this page, but some of the content may be out of date.
We're still working on updating written materials, but check out our new codelabs and videos.
The Payment Request API improves mobile web checkout (shopping cart) and accepts credit cards electronically (and eventually a number of other payment services and solutions in the wild).
The Payment Request API allows merchants to easily collect payment information with minimal integration. The API is an open and cross-browser standard that replaces traditional checkout flows by allowing merchants to request and accept any payment in a single API call. The API eliminates manual and tedious entry by storing the user's information securely in the browser. The browser passes addresses and credit card (or other payment) details directly to the website. And, because the browser is collecting payment information from the user, making a payment goes from " n " taps to one tap.
Note: The Payment Request API is very new and still subject to developmental changes, especially while it is under development in the W3C Web Payments Working Group. Google tracks updates on this page. Please keep checking back. Also on this page is a shim that you can embed on your site to paper over API differences for two major Chrome versions.
About Web Payments
For mobile device users, making purchases on the web, particularly on mobile devices, can be a frustrating experience. Every web site has its own flow and its own validation rules, and most require us to manually type in the same set of information over and over again. Likewise, it is difficult and time consuming for developers to create good checkout flows that support various payment schemes.
For businesses, checkout can be a complicated process to develop and complete. That's why it is worthwhile investing in capabilities such as the Payment Request API and enhanced autofill to assist your users with the task of accurately filling in forms.
Mobile users are likely to abandon online purchase forms that are user-intensive, difficult to use, slow to load and refresh, and require multiple steps to complete. This is because two primary components of online payments – security and convenience – often work at cross-purposes, where more of one typically means less of the other.
Any system that improves or solves one or more of those problems is a welcome change. We've found that forms and payments are completed 25% more when autofill is available, increasing odds for conversion. We started solving the problem already with Autofill, but now we're talking about a more comprehensive solution called the Payment Request API.
The Payment Request API is a system that is meant to eliminate checkout forms . It vastly improves user workflow during the purchase process, providing a more convenient and consistent user experience and enabling web merchants to easily leverage disparate payment methods. The Payment Request API is not a new payment method, nor does it integrate directly with payment processors. Rather, it is a process layer whose goals are:
To let the browser act as intermediary among merchants, users, and payment methods
To standardize the payment communication flow as much as possible
To seamlessly support different secure payment methods
To work on any browser, device, or platform—mobile or otherwise
The Payment Request API is currently under development by the W3C Web Payments Working Group. The group's goal is to create a universal cross-browser standard for any website to accept any form of payment. See the Can I use website for up-to-date browser support.
The Payment Request API's open-web approach is designed:
For developers to minimize the need to fill out checkout forms and improve user's payment experience from the ground up. This API follows the recommendations in the W3C Payment Request API specification published by the Web Payments Working Group.
For users to check out, make a payment, or fill in forms with minimal use of the mobile device keyboard.
The API uses securely cached data to facilitate payment interaction between the user and the merchant's site. The API also gets the data necessary to process transactions as quickly as possible.
The Payment Request API is a standards-based way to enable checkout on the web that:
Provides a native user interface for users to select or add a payment method, a shipping address, a shipping option, and contact information in an easy, fast, and secure way.
Provides standardized (JavaScript) APIs for developers to obtain user's payment preferences in a consistent format.
Brings secure, tokenized payments to the web (browser as middleman) using secure origin, HTTPS.
Always returns a payment credential that a merchant can use to get paid (credit card, push payment, token, etc).
Is designed so that additional functionality can be added in, depending on your particular product requirements (shipping information, email, and phone number collection).
Goals of the Payment Request API
The Payment Request API is an open and cross-browser standard that replaces traditional checkout flows by allowing merchants to request and accept any payment in a single API call. The API allows the web page to exchange information with the browser while the user is providing input, before approving or denying a payment request.
It vastly improves user workflow during the purchase process, providing a more consistent user experience and enabling web merchants to easily leverage disparate payment methods. The Payment Request API is neither a new payment method, nor does it integrate directly with payment processors. Rather, it is a process layer whose goals are to:
Allow the browser act as intermediary among merchants, users, and payment methods
Standardize the payment communication flow as much as possible
Seamlessly support different secure payment methods
Eventually work on any browser, device, or platform, including mobile devices and otherwise (as of this writing the Payment Request API is available on Chrome for Android (v53), Samsung Internet (v5.0), and partially supported on Edge (v15), but other third-party solutions will be supported in the future)
Best of all, the browser acts as an intermediary, storing all the information necessary for a fast checkout so users can just confirm and pay with a single tap or click.

How Payment Request Processing Works
Using the Payment Request API, the transaction process is made as seamless as possible for both users and merchants.
The process begins when the merchant site creates a new PaymentRequest and passes to the browser all the information required to make the purchase: the amount to be charged, what currency they expect payment in, and what payment methods are accepted by the site. The browser determines compatibility between the accepted payment methods for the site and the methods the user has installed on the target device.
The browser then presents the payments UI to the user, who selects a payment method and authorizes the transaction. A payment method can be as straightforward as a credit card that is already stored by the browser, or as esoteric as a third-party system (for example, Android Pay or PayPal) written specifically to deliver payments to the site (this functionality is coming soon). After the user authorizes the transaction, all the necessary payment details are sent directly back to the site. For example, for a credit card payment, the site gets a card number, a cardholder name, an expiration date, and a CVC.
PaymentRequest can also be extended to return additional information, such as shipping addresses and options, payer email, and payer phone. This allows you to get all the information you need to finalize a payment without ever showing the user a checkout form.
From the user's perspective, all the previously tedious interaction—request, authorization, payment, and result—now takes place in a single step; from the web site's perspective, it requires only a single JavaScript API call. From the payment method's perspective, there is no process change whatsoever.

Video Editing + Graphics
Pharmaceutical Videos
In today's digitally connected world, a house cat can become a media mogul with an audience of millions in just 24 hours. So can you—potentially. It takes a very specialized set of skills and know-how to create the recipe for viral videos.
Indigo is a proven expert at this unique and burgeoning content paradigm.
All clients want their videos to go viral. Free distribution to millions of viewers not only builds an audience but also gets coveted media buzz. Viral videos draw news stories and sometimes even get awards. Social channels chatter endlessly about the sensation and entire marketing campaigns can be launched from a successful viral video.
But viral videos are the result of a unique blend of science, art, and luck. Indigo understands better than any other video production company the science and the art of creating viral videos. In 2009, Indigo produced the "JK Divorce Entrance Dance" in response to the incredibly popular "JK Wedding Entrance Dance" video.
The video was produced two days after the original wedding video went viral and ended up becoming one of the top viewed videos of 2009. In its first 48 hours, the video was viewed more than 3.5 million times. The original upload of the video was the third most popular video on YouTube in 2009 and as of October 2012 had been viewed over 77 million times.
Time magazine ranked the video at number 15 on its list of the 50 greatest YouTube videos that year.
This was not an accident. But success is relative.
Simply put, a viral video is a video that elicits a strong enough emotion or reaction from a group of people that they feel compelled to share with others.
A video is considered viral if it is viewed 10,000 times within a certain time frame, say a few hours or days. This opens the goalposts on what "viral" means. However, some key factors need to be taken into account when producing a viral video.
Most fit into one of three basic categories:
1) A parody or spoof (à la "Divorce Dance")
2) Cute (like a cat or baby videos) or funny (people doing something terribly wrong—"fail" videos)
3) Did that just happen? (Shock value)
Timing is a key aspect of Viral videos as people are more likely to share a video if it is relevant to a current event or idea. Being responsive and nimble to generate content regarding something that happened today or yesterday can be key.
The means by which the video is structured to draw in the viewer's attention, maintain viewer engagement, and include a climactic "moment" and pays off in just the amount of time to earn the viewer's endorsement. Sort of like a small tasty snack.
The vast majority of viral videos gain traction after being found and endorsed by tastemakers and digital influencers. Typically these are popular bloggers or even celebrities with built-in, large, loyal audiences. Getting your video into the hands of these channels is key as their audiences tend to view their content as virally acceptable—this process became known as video seeding.
No Selling Out
Viral videos typically are free of advertising—or at least appear to be. One of the cultural influences is that these are home-grown productions not encumbered by the perception of corporate villains looking to spread marketing messages.
Indigo understands this discipline and has the nimbleness and creativity to help proactively identify viral opportunities and keep the lights on long enough to make these productions successful.
We also understand the importance of distribution and monetization of these kinds of productions and will help you maximize the brand lift and audience acquisition for your company, product, or cause.
Looking to gain millions of viewers for your video in just weeks? Indigo can help you create viral content that drives buzz and causes a stir. To see one of our previous projects you can find it on YouTube.

Indigo is truly a team; your team. They jumped in with both feet to make something new and exciting happen and delivered exactly what I asked for but went above and beyond in quality, scope & creativity. The head of the company and team is transparent, results-driven and highly effective. So good I almost want to keep it a secret so I have them all to myself! LOL.
— Senior VP of Worldwide Content
Indigo was straightforward, responsive, and ready to collaborate. This was my first time producing a live stream, and Indigo was patient with the multitude of questions - big & small - their response time was unparalleled. When it came to the day, we had an A+ crew from Indigo, and the stream went off without a hitch. Thank you, Indigo!
— Production Coordinator
Massively impressed with Indigo's work on our corporate animated explainer video. Starting with our (sad) script, they turned it into an engaging, visual, and attention-grabbing sequence filled with symbols and emotional attachment. Additionally, Max and his team are reasonable and good to work with...we'll be back for more video work.
— Managing Director
I'm constantly impressed by Indigo Productions, they're an amazing company. As a Preferred Partner & Vendor here at Salesforce, they've created over 50 videos for us over the years. Indigo has a great team of professionals whose work is consistently innovative, visually stunning, and most importantly, masterful in delivering a powerful message.

This FAQ was created from two great members (Loves2Watch & ImRizzo) here who have spent a considerable amount of time to collect this info to help people make the best choices, and to be INFORMED consumers which is a basic purpose of this site.
Thanks to both of these great members for there dedication to helping others here.
Your choice of display is the first step in assembling your HOME THEATER. Your choices are Plasma, LCD, DLP and the newer entries LED, LASER and Other newer technologies being developed. We will only be discussing the flat screen technology here since this is the most popular form factor now.
HDTV: Resolution 720/768p & 1080p. 1080P is currently the highest resolution commercially available, and will result in better image display.
PLASMA: This display option has the some of the best current Image qualities and the ability to recreate True blacks, better shadow detail, great color reproduction, and superior viewing angles.
CAUTION: Avoid the lower tier products as their quality may not be up to acceptable viewing quality or dependability. The top 2 mfg lines to be considered PIONEER & PANASONIC are the top candidates to be considered, with Samsung getting an honorable mention.
PROS: These displays are usually the best in image quality and are less expensive than comparably sized LCD displays. And the viewing angles are much better and less critical than most other displays.
CONS: The biggest draw back to this type of display is the highly reflective front screen and consideration of this should be factored into your decision. (if your viewing area has many light emitting sources IE windows / glass doors / etc. these may cause annoying distractions, take this into consideration when shopping for your display). Of course for windows good light blocking blinds can eliminate most if not all of this issue, and ditto for placement of lights. The Plasma displays usually weight about 10-20% more and operate slightly warmer than most LCD panels. The electrical usage is comparable with other display types when properly calibrated and taken out of factory torch mode. Burn-in can also be an issue if static images are left on the screen for long periods so computer monitor users of more than about 5% would likely be better with an LCD, but for TV/movie watching, a properly adjusted/cared for plasma should not have any burn-in issues.
CAUTION: Once again the purchase of a lower tier product will be a disappointing to you in the long run, and as this is purchase of considerable expense your first choice should be the right one.
(once again, take this into consideration when shopping for your display and see the plasma section above with these glossy LCD panels for how to overcome most of this issue). These panels are usually slightly less in weight (in same size screens) and operate a little cooler than plasma displays.
CONS: The biggest draw back with LCD is the inability to reproduce 100% accurate black renderings which tend to only get as dark as dark gray unless the more expensive LED back lighting models are chosen. Also a lesser degree of viewing angles compared to plasmas, despite mfg stating wide viewing angles in the LCD specs.
This is a question that perplexes every newcomer to HD viewing " It's a widescreen HD TV why am I getting bars on the side or on the bottom & top". This is due to the various aspects or degrees of "Wide screen" modes used based upon the films original format. There are several online sites (CNET) that explain these ratios and their effects and display abilities. It is just too lengthy to explain here.
Do not be mislead by many of the retailers and E-tailers that would lead you to believe that you must purchase expensive HDMI cables to get pictures with the best image quality, this is untrue and only a means by which these sellers try to gouge you for unnecessary purchases. Many of the people here on this forum have purchased and use cables and connectors from WWW.Monoprice.com and get absolutely the best quality picture possible for the least cost.
A quick comparison ( without using the trade marked name of cable company MC ) MC HDMI 6" cable typically @ 69.95 to 149.95 , same quality from monoprice for $5.95 / $6.95, and believe us there is no visible difference.
Now that you have resolved your display purchase the next thing to consider, is an Audio Video Receiver (AVR) for the full Sound Surround experience.
# 1 priority in your choice is to include HDMI inputs (to facilitate a more convenient mode of connecting components and to have more available inputs for future add-ons).
IE: DD (Digital Dolby), DTS (digital theater sound), for SD DVDs and for Blu-ray (and the defunct HD DVD) players we also have DD+ (Dolby Digital HD audio), HD DTS (high definition digital theater sound), for less lossy HD audio and for true lossless HD audio we have; DtHD (Dolby TrueHD) and HD DTS MA (Digital Theater Sound High Definition Master Audio) the latter two are the latest sound decoding available as it provides you with uncompressed originally recorded material the director produced for in theater viewing, with truly amazing results. You must also consider that if your going to setup 7.1 system or a 5.1 system (this refers to a 7 speaker system or an 5 speaker system the .1 is the Sub-woofer necessary for those deep bass effects, you'll want a quality Subwoofer, for deep, clean bass reproduction).
You'll want an AVR with sufficient HDMI inputs for connecting your DVD or Blu-ray, your gaming system, your cable or satellite connections, etc. Now after that brief education we can get on to the available hardware. Once again we must stress that quality will add to your experience and the purchase of lesser quality components will only lead to disappoint and monetary losses. Some of the better products available include ONKYO which provides the most Bang for the Buck and from the 700 series on up, provide most of the current decoders for the above listed modes with more than ample wattage to drive most speaker systems without displaying any distortion problems. There are also higher end products available like Denon, Pioneer Elite,Yamaha and the upper tier Harmon Kardon products. A trip to their prospective Internet sites will provide you with all the necessary info needed to make an educated purchase based on your needs and many of the sites will let you do a side by side comparison to review available features and Spec's.
There a numerous HTIB systems available these are usually packaged deals that include; AVR & speakers and some that also include DVD players, even a few with Blu-ray players included. Normally these systems a of a lesser quality (to include lower tier products of reputable companies) and/or provide fewer features and lower wattage. Many do not provide true HD audio decoding via HDMI and require the use of analog connections, and even then some of them handle only some of the playback modes. There are some HTIB's that are of acceptable quality but are still limited in options and functions, these are made by Onkyo, Denon, Yamaha, Cambridge Soundworks, Panasonic, and of course BOSE (which is high priced for lower end sound quality despite the marketing hype).
1. Standard DVD which will play standard DVD's play video and usually 5.1 audio sound if connected to a surround sound system.
3. BLU-RAY (BD) Disc players are the newest and best type of player for the home which is TRUE HD and produces the best image/picture quality available and many models decode most of the present HD audio modes, you must be sure to buy a player capable of decoding the newest HD audio codec's IE DD+, DtHD, DTS-HD & DTS-HD MA to take full advantage of the latest Blu-Disc's being produced and to get the maximum effect from your sound system. Many of the newer BD players are 2.0 comparable which will allow you access to online updates and extras/features for the movie downloadable.
SETUP & PLACEMENT: You will need (for 5.1) Left Front - CENTER - Right Front - Left Surround - Right Surround and a SubWoofer. For (7.1) you will need two additional speakers Left Rear Surround - Right Rear Surround. Some systems can be setup for 6.1 or 8.1 which will necessitate additional speakers.
Sound is a very subjective matter as there are so many speakers available from Mini systems to Monster speakers. Once again you must keep in mind is that cheap speaker are just that, "cheap" speakers producing poorer quality sound with lots of distortion and other problems and are a definite waste of money.
The best recommendation is for you to do a personal audition of the different speakers available at your local Electronic store like Best Buy, Circuit City, Magnolia stores or a local audio dealer. The list of speaker systems is to numerous to list here. First listen to systems owned by friends or relatives and ask them what they like about them and what they dislike about them. Once you've compiled a list of speaker you'd like to hear then head off to one of those stores. When you go be prepared, take a CD you're familiar with and a DVD you're familiar with, so that you can do a comparison of sound with something you already know and are familiar with because most retailers have specifically selected CD's & DVD's that will exploit what your listening to and may deceive or mislead you. Also take a friend with you who can act as an impartial critic, who won't be afraid to point out deficiencies you may or may not notice or hear. Also try to have the store play these speakers on the same AVR you intend to purchase or have already purchased. Most importantly try to confine your speaker purchase to the same brand and type so that you will have the same tonal sound consistency (Timbre matched) from all speakers throughout your system so as to create a seamless sound field. (So that when that car drives from the L/S spk thru the Center spk to the R/S speaker so there is no tonal difference, thus a seamless sound field). Do not be mislead or directed towards certain speakers, but do not be afraid to listen to a suggested speaker just do not let the SALESMAN sell you on those speakers, you must be the decision maker. And in the final analysis you are the one who is going to listen to them, and you are the one who has to be satisfied by them so be sure it's your choice. Some suggested speakers to be considered are: Klipsch, Infinity, Paradigm, NHT, Mirage, Definitive Technology, Kef, Polk, and so many more. These are the better mid price level brands with various price points.
Again, a big thanks is due to Loves2Watch & ImRizzo. The two great members here who took the time to provide this detailed info as a starting point for you.


Danyelle Haines scooped the Young Talent award last night at a glittering ceremony in Liverpool.
Miss Haines, 19, who lives in Barrow, was delighted with the win but graciously said it belonged to the whole team at Ulverston.
"I was nominated by my manager Terry Sandham for my involvement in a steriles project worth £57m," she said.
"I don't see it as me winning the award, it's for everyone based at GSK in Ulverston."
Danyelle started her manufacturing apprenticeship at GSK in 2015 after completing a medical science qualification.
GSK Ulverston, a partner of Choose Cumbria, congratulated Danyelle after she was announced as the winner.

A video posted by the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) on Facebook shortly before 9 a.m. showed a pyroclastic flow event at the volcano.
The video showed thick ash billowing as pyroclastic materials flowed on the volcano's surface.
Lava continued to flow from Mount Mayon as the volcano remained in a high level of unrest on Tuesday morning.
A video by YouScoopers Bert Recamunda and Joel Rey Lim showed the volcano forcefully spewing out fiery molten rock on Monday night.
A report on Unang Balita said Mount Mayon was almost in full view on Tuesday morning and thick black smoke was seen coming from the volcano, which indicates it is spewing thick, fiery lava.
The report said residents in evacuation centers fearfully stayed up all night watching the events.
"Ang gusto namin dapat, matapos na 'yan, kasi nakakatakot eh," a resident said, after describing the lava she saw.
The red-orange lava slowly cascades from the volcano's mouth to its sides, setting fire to ashes it previously ejected.
Alert Level 3 has been raised over the active volcano, indicating a "relatively high level of unrest."
PHIVOLCS said a hazardous eruption is possible "within weeks or even days."
Local government officials, meanwhile, are pleading to residents who have yet to leave the six-kilometer radius permanent danger zone to vacate their homes because of a possible hazardous eruption.
Local officials are also asking the evacuees to refrain from returning to their homes.
The Unang Balita report said a farmer, Mang Rauwel, returns to his home located inside the permanent danger zone to check on his crops and his family's livestock.
The farmer's family are staying in an evacuation center in Albay.
Mang Rauwel drops off his wares in bulk at a trading post in Camalig town in Albay province, where others like him watch the flowing lava in awe.


Look at me from the side. Do I look different to you?
This post involves more than the usual amount of girl talk. Men may or may not be interested in it, but don't say I didn't warn you.
I don't know about most other moms, but I have found that one of the first things that goes out the window upon the arrival of a new baby is excess personal grooming. By "excess" I mean anything that might imply artificially applying colour to hair or skin, as well as anything that might keep me in front of the mirror longer than the bare minimums. Some days, this included choosing an outfit that matched. I was just happy to get out of my pyjamas.
But, as baby approaches that wondrous first-year mark, something magical happens. Suddenly, his wails are not the first sound that drags you out of bed in the morning. Your other children, if you have any, have finally reached an age where they can entertain themselves for a fair amount of time without getting in trouble. And you suddenly have time to actually look in the mirror.
And you shriek, "Oh my GOSH!!"
Then you immediately book an appointment for the hair salon, wondering how it was that you managed to stay married, looking like a slob in sweatpants for nearly a year.
While I may or may not admit to the use of hyperbole in this post (or any post, for that matter. I was raised with a firm belief in blurring the line between truth and dramatic exaggerations thereof), it was so nice to be able to go to the salon today and actually get pampered a little beyond a trim--it was time to rid the winter blahs by adding highlights to my hair.
I think I may have finally found a hairdresser that I like! YAY! Too bad she has a baby due in April, and then I will be punted into the wild again. Hopefully, that gives me enough time to sleuth out another artiste in the hair department--one that does not require a drive to Grand Prairie (2 hours), Edmonton (5 hours), or a one-month minimum advance booking time (downtown Peace River).
And! Since this is a "girl talk" post anyway, I have been meaning to blog about this for the longest time.
"This" is one of the coolest reinventions to hit the market in a century.
"This" will make you wonder why none of your friends know about it.
"This" will make you want to be the one to tell them.
"This" is the Diva Cup.
Say goodbye to $10/month in feminine hygiene supplies.
Say goodbye to the worry about Toxic Shock Syndrome.
Say goodbye to uncomfortable vaginal dryness.
Say goodbye to messy "Maxi Ultra with wings for Night."
Say hello to taking it easier on your body.
Say hello to taking it easier on the environment.
Say hello to taking it easier on the plumbing.
Say hello to one tidy little pretty cloth bag to carry around with you in your purse, instead of an arsenal of supplies tucked in every desk or bathroom you have.
Picture a diaphragm, but facing the opposite direction. It is not absolutely perfect, but it's the best thing I've ever tried. The only downside is that if someone has particularly weak vaginal muscles (say from birthing too many babies), it can tend to slip up, especially at night. But this can easily be remedied by doing Kegal exercises.
I find I need to wear it with a pantyliner, just for the odd drop that might seep past. Also, the insertion technique took a try or two to master, but the instructions in the box are very detailed, and I soon found it was easier than using a tampon, too.


A few games into the high school hockey season the hype phase begins to fade and reality sets in: we begin to learn what teams actually have, and how far they might go. The preseason puzzle on the east side of Duluth tried to figure how the Greyhounds would reload in the absence of Garrett Worth, Luke LaMaster, Ian Mageau, and a number of other members of a deep senior class. Fresh off a return to their perch atop 7AA, a victory over Edina in a memorable clash of goliaths, and the bitter taste of a state championship game loss to Minnetonka, northeast Minnesota's hockey bluebloods are looking to fill those gaps and take care of some unfinished business.
The 2018-2019 Hounds are off to a solid, if not exactly flashy, start. This is in part to due to their opponents—White Bear Lake and Wayzata both look tough in the early going, to say nothing of a front-line Andover team—and in part due to Mike Randolph's coaching system, which always looks for consistent control instead of gaudy scorelines, especially as the team tests combinations and works its systems in the early going. Since a near-disaster in the first three minutes of the season against White Bear they've been stout defensively, and stayed that way throughout a back-and-forth affair with now-second-ranked Andover, which ended in an overtime loss in front of a packed house at the Andover Community Center on Saturday.
Luke Kron's game-winner was a key moment for the Huskies, who had never beaten East before in their history. Their goaltender, Ben Fritsinger, is the real deal, while the top line of Kron, Charlie Schoen, and Nick Dainty had its moments of dominance. They are a deep group on a mission for their first Tourney berth. But from an East perspective, the loss is hardly cause for concern. It was an overtime loss in December; their lineup is less settled than the highly experienced Huskies, and as the game built and the bench shortened, it was the Hounds who carried more of the play. If the top line can finish its chances and the defensemen can rein in floaters who sneak in behind them, they'll be tough to beat. History tells us the Hounds will improve as the season goes along; will they stay true to form, and how does Andover counter?
Randolph's typical tinkering will likely continue into January, but the early returns do little to seed any doubt that the Hounds are right back among the state's best despite their graduation losses. Deep programs often do better than observers might expect after graduating a very successful senior class, in large part due to the quality of many players who were buried on the depth chart the season before. The early contributions of a junior like Charlie Erickson, who would've seen a regular shift on any lesser team a season ago, or of a senior such as the giant Jonathan Jones, are an immediate testament to that maxim. The Hounds are playing four lines with regularity, and cycling through a host of defensemen as they look for the group that will get ice time in February and perhaps beyond. With no shortage of options, they are right among the state's top teams in a season where few to no AA teams look like the East, Edina, and Minnetonka super teams of a season ago.
Mike Randolph has played goaltender roulette and started three different tenders over the first four games. Back around the start of the decade, Randolph's handling of his goalies was a subject of some criticism, and not without some justification. The goalies, often left on an island watching action at the other end of the ice for long stretches, were often called upon to make only a few saves on breakaways, and their performance in those moments—and mental makeup as they tried to withstand them—could lead to swift hooks and cratering confidence. In recent years, however, Randolph seems to have gotten the goalie game right.Seniors like Gunnar Howg, Kirk Meierhoff, and Parker Kleive weren't guaranteed anything, but won their respective jobs in open competition and were the no-doubt starters down the stretch and through strong playoff runs. Whether the wheel finally stops on veteran Lukan Hanson, upstart Konrad Kausch, or the unheralded Brody Rabold, someone will need to seize the opportunity.
Aside from a goaltender, the players who will be most essential to East's rise over the course of the season will be its remaining front-line stars. The team boasts a top-notch defensive pair of Carson Cochran and Frederick Hunter Paine, as tenacious a net-front presence as the state can offer in Ricky Lyle, and of course Ryder Donovan, who has a chance to join the pantheon of East all-time greats. Donovan is projected to go in the first three rounds of the NHL draft, which would be the highest position of any Hound who played his senior year at East since Rusty Fitzgerald in 1991. (A very achievable 50-point season would put him in the top five Hounds since we have statistics; a difficult but not impossible 75 would get him into third, behind the possibly untouchable pair of Chris Locker and Dave Spehar.) The bevy of quality players and the steadiness of the system will ensure that East continues to look like one of the deepest teams in the state. But to truly separate themselves, the Hounds need a huge season out of Donovan, and his breakaways and laps skated around opponents need to turn into points. Lyle and Brendan Baker will be his wingmen, and with Jack Fitzgerald's expected return from injury against Cloquet, the lower lines should fall into place.
Before March, however, is Cloquet: on Thursday, East renews its longtime rivalry with the Lumberjacks, and rarely has this never-predictable rivalry been more up in the air. Cloquet opened the season hyped as a third highly-ranked 7AA squad beside East and Andover, but the early returns have been an utter disappointment. The Jacks are 1-5, and while most of the losses have been fairly close games with good teams, they have not looked in sync in any facet of their game. East went winless in the teams' two meetings a season ago, and this rivalry has a way of flattening any talent gaps and erasing any momentum. It will be an instructive game for how both teams handle a chaotic, playoff-like atmosphere, and could invite the emergence of some unsung heroes. As the tinkering continues, the real tests begin to mount, and we'll learn more about where these Hounds truly stand.
Last weekend's Summer Hockey Festival at Braemar Arena in Edina offered a brief dose of hockey for those of us in need of some midsummer action. Twenty teams battled it out over the course of three days, giving the world its first real looks at Janne Kivihalme-coached Lakeville South, a somewhat improved-looking Grand Rapids, and a bunch of kids in bantam or other teams' breezers who have made their way to a new hockey home for 2018-2019. Watching these sorts of tournaments always comes with a grain of salt, as rosters are incomplete and coaches are sorting through what they have, but they've also proven to have some decent predictive power in the past.
Duluth East eased any worries of a drop-off following the graduation of the likes of Garrett Worth, Luke LaMaster, and Ian Mageau with a strong second-place showing. Ryder Donovan looked every bit a Mr. Hockey frontrunner, and the top line of Donovan, Ricky Lyle, and Brendan Baker was tenacious and displayed strong chemistry. Upcoming bantams like Jacob Jeanette and Zarley Ziemski were noticeable in their Greyhound debuts, and the bevy of players looking to claim their spots in the pecking order beyond the top pair on defense largely held their own. The 2018-2019 Greyhounds will be big, tough, and in-your-face. While they still have some sorting to do on the back end an in goal, their forward depth and front-line talent will keep them near the top of the heap this coming season.
Still, the Hounds were not even the best team in their own section at Braemar over the course of the weekend. That title belongs to Andover, which rolled through to a championship. Last season, the Huskies' top line pairing of Charlie Schoen and Nick Dainty grabbed headlines, and will likely lead the way in their senior seasons. But this time around, it was the rising juniors such as defenseman Wyatt Kaiser and the line of Hunter Zinda, Luke Kron, and Harrison VanderMey that turned my head. The Huskies' depth will have them sitting pretty in preseason rankings, and with an early December meeting between the Huskies and Hounds, the 7AA dogfight will name its frontrunner early on.
The third power in 7AA, Cloquet, also had a solid showing in Edina. The Jacks, in my mind, are a step behind East and Andover in both star power and depth, but not so far in either that they don't have a fighting chance at winning the section. There is also the small matter of their head coach following Kevin Smalley's third arrest for driving while intoxicated and subsequent ouster. Just one year after an abrupt end to a long coaching career, Cloquet will endure another change at the top. There is a fair amount of politicking going on behind the scenes in all of this, and the outcome will have a lot to say about the future of Lumberjack hockey.
Elsewhere, there are rumblings of a power shift in the West Metro. Minnetonka, the defending state champs, will begin the season as #1, and have only reloaded. But beyond that, there are questions. Edina, down a couple of players to early defections, will try to put together a redeem team; while there's still plenty in the tank for 2018-2019, the future beyond this season is as uncertain as it's been in 15 years for the Hornets. Benilde-St. Margaret's, after a two-year down cycle, is on the up and up, and Blake is looking to make waves and fill the void left by Breck's decline in a certain private school niche. Eden Prairie has more Mittelstadts, Wayzata has the predictability of Pat O'Leary hockey, and Holy Family has had another successful offseason shopping spree. Cretin-Derham Hall, which is not in the West Metro but is stuck in a section with teams that are, will have its best team since Ryan McDonagh roamed the Raider blue line over a decade ago. After a period of relative public school power, the pendulum may be swinging back toward some of the privates in the Metro. The mix of rising contenders and the staying power of the old guard could give 2AA and 6AA as many as 10 teams in the top 25.
Usually, early defections to junior hockey to come from schools that don't have great odds at a Tournament berth, or from teams that are so deep that they can stand to lose a player or two and still be front-line contenders. This season, however, the relatively low number of departures to date are instead sapping some teams that otherwise might have been home runs. Maple Grove, for example, could have been the next super team if not for three defections this offseason. While the Crimson may still be the frontrunner in 5AA, that squad is not what it could have been. Moorhead could have been a shoo-in in 8AA with Ethan Frisch; without him, 8AA starts to get murky. If Ben Helgeson bolts from Hill-Murray, the Pioneers will still be favored in a thin 4AA, but are more likely than not to continue a State Tournament losing streak that now sits at eight straight. The deep AA sections seem to get stronger while the thinner sections grow weaker.
While the wars brew in the West Metro, much of the rest of the Metro is more predictable. Andover has assumed frontrunner status on the north side, the east in need of someone to emerge to challenge Hill's supremacy, and the Lakevilles are once again the default top two in 1AA. If I had to find a source of unexpected intrigue, I'd point to 3AA, where rising Rosemount may have enough pieces to win the thing, and Eagan should see its stock climb as well. St. Thomas Academy remains the frontrunner there, but is in need of a jolt to break out of its lengthening string of playoff upset losses.
Elite League rosters also came out this past week, and unsurprisingly, Minnetonka and Duluth East dominate the list for most players. The usual debates over the number of younger players taken have ensued, and there was also some justified angst over seeming competitive imbalance when the Team Southwest roster was revealed. What good does it do anyone to load up a Metro Elite League team like that? At any rate, we're just over a month from the beginning of that action, which provides another teaser of what's to come. Until then, we have a summer to enjoy.
On a closing note, this Tweet may be the most Northern Minnesota Hockey thing I have ever seen, and it is marvelous.
The Heart Attack Hounds struck again in the 7AA final. For a sixth straight year, this affair delivered playoff hockey at its absolute best, with late drama and overtime again winning the day. This section final invariably sends those of us in the stands through about as polarizing swing of emotions a team can inspire, but East found a way yet again.
The Hounds opened their playoff run looking like a team on a mission. Despite Grand Rapids' struggles this season, there was a bit of intrigue in opening with a game against a team that had vanquished them the two previous seasons and an elite goalie. No such worries, as Garrett Worth scored 23 seconds in, Logan Anderson piled on two minutes later, and East was off to the races with a 6-0 win. The section semifinal performance was even more clinical, as they humiliated a Duluth Marshall team that had taken them to overtime in the regular season, 9-1. After five straight nervy section finals, this finally seemed like one in which the Hounds were comfortable favorites.
But if the East faithful expected an easier path, they were soon set straight. The final matched the Hounds with Andover, a young, speedy finesse team that arrived a season early under the diligent work of head coach Mark Manney. The Huskies withstood East's early barrage, and their confidence began to build. East was a mess throughout much of the second period, with Andover springing an endless series of odd-man rushes. The deficit was two after the period, but it could easily have been more, despite what the shots read on the scoreboard. Uncharacteristic mistakes began to mount, from sloppy defense to selfish offense to fluky swings and misses and collisions among teammates. The game set off bad memories of the 2012 Lakeville South loss, in which East slowly but surely lost control against a speedy team that outworked them and created chance after chance in the other direction.
And so the Hounds began to chip away, and resigned themselves to dumping and chasing to break a trap. All three goals were of the dirty variety, with two tips off of Luke LaMaster shots, and a bank shot from behind the net by Ryder Donovan. The team just kept grinding and denying losing, to use an old phrase of Mike Randolph's. As so often seems the case, an upset-minded team crumbled when the favorite began to surge. Once they tied it up, any doubt went away. The Hounds were going to rewrite a well-worn script, as they tied a section final with under two minutes to go for the third time in eight years, and finished off their opponent in the first overtime. This was the most excruciating of the bunch, thanks both to their heavy favorite status and the length of the overtime, but the Greyhounds were back on their game, and found a way yet again.
Mike Randolph, meanwhile, added to his legend as he locked up his 17th State Tournament berth. This was a season in which a head coach could have just taken off the leash and turned his team loose, and relative to some other good East teams, he did that with this group. But there were still some of those subtle tweaks he makes that help make a good team great. Of note: the late season flip of the second and third line centers, Logan Anderson and Brendan Baker. On paper it looked like a minor flip, but with Anderson on the second line, that group practically outpaced the top line in production in the late stages of the season, and Baker's net-front presence on the gritty third line was a bonus, too. In the section final, Baker was credited with the goal that began the comeback, and Anderson took home the game-winner. East fans will know the Hounds work traffic in front of the net and tips more than anyone so that the team is ready to break down a packed-in defense in a playoff game, and sure enough, those two goals both came on tips.
As Baker and Anderson exemplify, the defining trait of this East team remains its depth. Two-thirds of the top line was held to zero points on Thursday night, but East won anyway. The one-loss 2012 Hounds probably had as much talent across three lines, but they didn't achieve the balance of this group, especially late this season. Thursday night's struggles notwithstanding, the defense also became far more solid as the season went on, and if they can revert to February form in St. Paul, the Hounds will stand a good chance. In goal, the Hounds just ask Parker Kleive not to lose things for them, and to date he has delivered, as he takes no chances and does what he needs to do. He was certainly not at fault for the closeness of the Andover game, and has earned his place among East State Tournament starters.
The Hounds now head to St. Paul, where they've landed the 3-seed and will face Tournament debutant St. Michael-Albertville. If the Hounds get past the Knights, that most epic of tournament matchups, East against Edina, looms for Friday night. If things go according to form, the last two rounds could be as good as ever, but history tells us to expect the unexpected here.
For now, though, Duluth East can bask in its restoration to the 7AA throne, and a 23rd State Tournament trip. A skilled senior class bookends its time at East with a second Tourney trip, and gets a chance to show how far it has come since 2015's magical ride, when Worth beat Elk River in double overtime to win the section and Ian Mageau fed Ash Altmann for the goal that slew Edina's dynasty. We'll see what they can do for an encore.

Billboards advertising migration services reveal much about regional patterns of migration and local imaginaries connected to migration. This album brings together photographs that showcase the marketing of education-based visas in India, China, Nepal, Iraq, and Ghana. The photographs have been taken in and around universities, shopping areas and public transport.
The most advertised destination of migration for students from across the world is the USA. Australia, Canada and UK/ Europe are also popular destinations. But there are regional differences: for instance, China is emerging as an important study destination in Ghana, and ads for educational programmes from Japan and Korea are more common in China and Nepal. Frequently featured in education visa advertisements across regions is the image of a young (sometimes exotic/non-local looking) female student, often in a graduation robe and/or holding a book across her chest. In China, the image of a young man in a fashionable suit is seen in many advertisements, highlighting the dream of a cosmopolitan professional life.

Q: How do I create a hidden field in MVC3? I'm using MVC3. When I make a field with
@Html.EditorFor(model => model.RowKey)

Then the value gets sent back to the controller which is what I need. However I don't want the field to be visible even though I want its value to be returned to the controller.
Is there a way I can make a field hidden with MVC3?

A: @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.RowKey)

see What does Html.HiddenFor do? for an example

A: If you want to keep Html.EditorFor(), you could always mark a particular property of your model as hidden:
using System.Web.Mvc.HiddenInput;

public class Model
{
    [HiddenInput(DisplayValue = false)]
    // some property
}

A: This works for me:
@Html.EditorFor(m => m.RowKey, new { htmlAttributes = new { @style="display: none" } })

A: Could you use the hiddenfor helper, like so:
@Html.HiddenFor(m => m.RowKey)

Spiritual Growth /
The Inconvenient Gospel
A Southern Prophet Tackles War, Wealth, Race, and Religion
By Clarence Jordan, Frederick L. Downing
On 440 depleted acres in Sumter County, Georgia, a young Baptist preacher and farmer named Clarence Jordan gathered a few families and set out to show that Jesus intended more than spiritual fellowship. Like the first Christians, they would share their land, money, and possessions. Working together to rejuvenate the soil and the local economy, they would demonstrate racial and social justice with their lives.
Black and white community members eating together at the same table scandalized local Christians, drew the ire of the KKK, and led to drive-by shootings, a firebombing, and an economic boycott.
This bold experiment in nonviolence, economic justice, and sustainable agriculture was deeply rooted in Clarence Jordan's understanding of the person and teachings of Jesus, which stood in stark contrast to the hypocrisy of churches that blessed wars, justified wealth disparity, and enforced racial segregation.
This selection from his talks and writings introduces Clarence Jordan's radically biblical vision to a new generation of peacemakers, community builders, social justice warriors, and antiracist activists.

As part of our series on leadership training, Susanne Madsen, Leadership Coach, discusses tips and strategies for motivating different people on your team.
In Review: What Really Motivates People?
Using Anthony Robbins' definition of 6 Human Needs, Susanne demonstrates how project managers and team leaders can identify core human needs for effective motivation strategies for their teams.
By getting to know the needs of your team members, you can help them to feel connected to the broader project goals and keep them aligned and motivated with their work.
Pro-Tip: Make sure you are communicating the purpose and strategic goals of the project with your team frequently. It's valuable for all team members to understand their role in the larger project and their contribution to the end user, as well.
Take it further: Watch Susanne in her previous leadership training video: How to Build Trust with Your Team.
I'm Susanne Madsen. Welcome to this whiteboard session on 'What Really Motivates People'. Today we're going to look at the six human needs as taught by Anthony Robbins.
The first human need is certainty. We all have a need for safety, security, certainty. We want to know that we are being paid and that we have a job, etc. You can help your team members fulfill this need by giving them clarity around what their roles are, what their responsibilities are, why the project is there. What they are going to be doing after the project, etc. The more clarity and certainty the better up until a certain point, because what happens if I give you 100% certainty. You might get bored.
So the opposing need is variety. We all have a need for change, for some spice in life. You can help your team members fulfill this need by making sure you rotate them, by making sure you don't keep them doing the same thing over and over again because that might bore them and it might demotivate them.
The third human need is significance. We all have a need to feel special, to stand out. I think of this as a bit of an ego driven need. You can help your team members to fulfill this by praising them but your praise must absolutely be heartfelt and honest and you must link it to a specific behavior they have done so that they know that it's true positive feedback.
The opposing need to significance is connection. We all have a need to feel connected, to feel part of a team. We are human after all. You can help your team members to get this need fulfilled by having one on one conversations with a person, listening to them, asking them how they're doing, making them feel they belong. You can also create team building exercises to create that sense of belonging at a team level.
But according to this model, we will never feel truly fulfilled purely through these first four needs. We need the last two needs to feel fulfillment. That's growth and contribution. Growth means that we all have a need to develop, to progress, to grow.
You can help your team members to fulfill this by stretching them, by delegating tasks that would generally stretch them. You can also allow them to go and explore outside of the team or attend conferences. That will also make them feel that they're growing. Lastly contribution. We all have a need to feel that we are part of something bigger. That our efforts matter.
That's why we contribute to the Olympics for instance and that we participate without even getting a salary for it. You can help your team members to fulfill those needs by making them feel their efforts are truly worthwhile. That what they're doing will add value to an end user somewhere after the fact. So I would like to ask you what are you doing to help your team members fulfill all of these six human needs. When you do that, you will truly motivate them.
Thank you for watching. Please visit again at ProjectManager.com.

A new material, designed and patented by researchers at Berkeley Lab, converts ethane to ethanol with an efficiency that could cut natural-gas refining costs.
Xiao and Jeffrey Long, scientist in Berkeley Lab's Materials Sciences Division and professor of chemistry at the UC Berkeley focused this project on converting ethane to ethanol.
Ethanol is a potential alternative fuel that burns cleaner and has a higher energy density than other alternative fuels like methanol. One problem with ethanol, however, is that current methods for production require extreme heat, which makes it expensive.
The innovation came when Long and Xiao designed a material called Fe-MOF-74, in a class of materials called metal-organic frameworks or MOFs. Because of their cage-shaped structures, MOFs boast a high surface area, which mean they can absorb extremely large amounts of gas or liquid compared to the weight of the MOF itself.
Since MOFs are essentially structured like a collection of tiny cages, they can capture other molecules, acting as a filter. Additionally, they can perform chemistry as molecules pass through the cages, becoming little chemical factories that convert one substance to another.
It's this chemical-conversion feature of MOFs that Long and Xiao took advantage of. Ethane is a molecule made of two carbon atoms where each atom is surrounded by atoms of hydrogen. Ethanol is also made of two carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms, but one of its carbon atoms is also bonded to a hydrogen-oxygen ion called a hydroxyl.
Previous attempts to add a hydroxyl ion to ethane to make ethanol have required high pressure and high temperatures that range from 200 to 300 degrees Celsius. It's costly and inconvenient.
But by using a specially designed MOF—one in which a kind of iron was added inside the tiny molecular cages—the researchers were able to reduce the need for extreme heat, converting ethane to alcohol at just 75 degrees Celsius.
"This is getting toward a holy grail in chemistry which is to be able to cleanly take alkanes to alcohols without a lot of energy," says Long. Long and Xiao worked closely with researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the University of Minnesota, the University of Delaware, and the University of Turin to design, model, and characterize the MOF and resultant ethanol production.
This research was funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, Division of Chemical Sciences, Geosciences, and Biosciences. Reactivity studies were supported by the Laboratory Directed Research and Development Program of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Work at the Molecular Foundry and experiments performed at the Advanced Light Source were funded by the DOE's Office of Basic Energy Sciences.

Q: Re-indenting multiple files (LaTex) with Vim Background: I've decided to try Vim with latex-suite as my editor for a largish LaTeX project. As I've switched to Vim from different editor/IDE which didn't force autoindent (and I was sloppy with indenting manually), the current indentation of .tex files is quite mismatched and doesn't suit the style I want (which is set up by adding filetype plugin indent on and automcd Filetype tex setlocal shiftwidth= etc in my .vimrc; this works fine).
The project constitutes of multiple .tex files, structured like
main.tex
tex/
   chapter1.tex
   chapter2.tex
   ...
   chapter10.tex

This stackexchange tells to indent a single source code file opened in vim easily with =, as in
gg=G

which works perfectly. Now, the question.
Is there a neat Vim (and/or bash/other if Vim can't handle this neatly, but preferrably Vim) solution which would enable me to do similar 'reindent' for all the .tex files at once (in other words, without typing gg=G separately for each tex file where the indentation needs to be fixed?)

A: First, add all LaTeX files as arguments in Vim (the example assumes you're in the document's root):
:args *.tex **/*.tex

Then, you can apply the command to all arguments via :argdo (and :normal, since this is a normal-mode command); you probably want to persist the changes in the same go, too:
:argdo execute 'normal gg=G' | update

Occasionally you might need to move students from and to classes within your Pitcherific Enterprise Dashboard. All of this is possible in a couple of steps.
Let's take a look at how to do this. You can basically do this either from within a Class page or from the big, overall Students list (or Students page).
First, ensure that you actually have a Class to move your students to. You will need at least 2 classes for this to work, so if you only have 1, please create a Class before attempting to move students.
With a destination Class in place, select the students you want to move by checking them off one by one (or all visible at once).
When you've checked at least one student off, a panel appears at the bottom of your screen with an option called Move to class. Click on it to bring up the transfer window.
Inside the transfer window, select the Class you want to transfer your selected students to from the list and confirm the transfer.
The transfer usually only takes a brief second to perform and after it has been completed, the Class page will reload so you can see that the students have been moved.
While the most common situation will be to move students from one existing Class to another, you may also need to move students who do not have a Class to one.
What this means is that if you go to the Students page, you will see the entire list of students invited to Pitcherific by your school. Like within a specific Class you can also move students from and to classes on this page (or big list, if you want).
To do this, check off the students you want to move and select Move to class from the panel at the bottom of the screen. Again, select the Class you want to move them to and confirm the transfer.
After the transfer completes, the list will update and be filtered to only show the Class you moved the students to, so you can verify that they've been transferred correctly.


Halloween arrived early at Boundary Park during Latics' Sky Bet League 1 match against Swindon Town.
It was the Boundary Blues Spooky Blues Day.
Youngsters came in fancy dress - even mascot Chaddy donned a scary Halloween costume - and took part in a parade around the pitch during the half-time interval.
And as these photographs show it was a colourful spectacle as the members embraced the occasion.

Last night was a long night. Judah has been having a lot of breakthrough pain and its keeping him awake and grouchy. It would make me the same way. He trying so hard to be brave and we are very proud of him.
He was approved to move to the hem/oc side of the floor yesterday but there weren't any beds and as of this morning, there still aren't any. We are so ready to get all these wires off and have more freedom.
And our God, merciful and playful has returned Judah his laugh. He is hearing our prayers and answering for His glory and our joy!
We put one of his favorite movies on and he started smiling. Then a few minutes later, laughing. Just now he sat off the bed and folded himself in half then laid back down. He's thoroughly enjoying himself!!!
After a wonderful 3 hrs with smiling and laughing and even some words Judah crashed into an angry depression. We think he may have exhausted himself but after 2 hrs of only grunting and flailing we backed off and let him be. It is so hard to see him make such progress one minute, and then the next, backslide. He was again frustrated and cried in anger.
We prayed for Jehovah Jireh to provide patience and comfort to Judah and to us and then prayed our same prayer for supernatural healing of his vocal chords, swallowing system, tongue, mouth, and that connection between what he knows and how to say it. Please continue to pray with us and for us.
We are so grateful for the glimpse at our little boy and thank God for it. We want more!!!!
Praise be to our Jehovah Rapha! We prayed for supernatural healing and He has come to our aid. Judah was, yesterday, unable to swallow or keep saliva in his mouth and today he is not only swallowing but in total control of his spot. No drooling!
Our God is mighty and has a glorious work to complete in Judah. He has carried us a giant step in the right direction. Keep praying for miraculous, quick and unexplainable healing.
There are a few good updates today (and a happy birthday wish for Wendi!). The oncologist came by yesterday to confirm that as they suspected it is a grade 1 pilocytic astrocytoma, which means it's slow growing and extremely unlikely to spread anywhere else. Basically, if you're going to have a brain tumor that's the best type to have. Praise Jesus!
We're seeing improvements. Judah has moved his face muscles more today, moving his lips and tongue. I even got him to snarl at me when I was being particularly aggravating. He's been pretty agitated all day, but who can blame him. I'd be pretty angry too. More eye movements and head motion. God bless Mumzy's hearing loss because it's enabled her to find ways of communicating with him that no one else had found. And he'll actually make an effort at high fives and fist bumps with Uncle Josh when everyone else just gets grunts. He let the speech therapist read to him for 30 minutes and she had him turning the pages. Started off with angry swats but by the end he was turning them gently and deliberately.
The neuro Drs also said they could try "clamping" his EVD (brain drain as we affectionately call it) which means they are seeing if he can self-regulate his spinal fluid. If he does well they could take the EVD out in the near future with no need for a shunt.
Things are getting better. He's still got a long road ahead (as do we) and there are a lot of unknowns that we may still have to face. Keep the prayers up, they're working!
The PICU team decided to stop doing hourly cks 24/7 so for the first time in 2wks Judah will get to sleep for 4hrs straight! They did a ck at 8, he fell asleep around 8:30 and has been asleep solidly since. They will wake him at midnight for a brief neuro ck and give him more Tylenol and then he'll get to sleep another 4 hrs in a row. I think this unsedated, natural sleep is what he really needs.

America has always been a resilient country, but some believe that its reign as a superpower is coming to an end unless it can solve its education crisis. The Obama Administration believes it can solve this crisis by putting more money into advancing technology training for adults.
While other initiatives are aimed at elementary and grade schools, the Obama Administration will provide $100 million, specifically, to employers, training institutions, and local governments that are targeting low-skilled workers who don't have access to training or educational platforms.
They money is set to come from fees generated by the H-1B visa program – a program that companies pay fees for to hire foreign workers.
So far, Obama has obtained commitments from over 300 employers and 20 local governments. The program's official name is TechHire and is designed to prepare workers for a growing trend in technology.
Estimates by the White House put the target at 5 million jobs available today, with more than half a million in fields like cybersecurity, software development, and network administration. The sudden attention to technology comes on the back of promising unemployment numbers and yet a lack of wage growth.
Programs, like the ITIL Foundation Certification Training, from Simplilearn, could help individuals acquire the kinds of skills they need for these types of jobs. Wages haven't risen substantially over the last few years. Research suggests that high-tech jobs pay 50 percent more than low-tech jobs, so these types of training programs are desperately needed and welcomed. That's significant, considering average hourly wages come in at just $24.78 per hour.
Along with employers and local governments, the administration wants universities and community colleges to provide training. But, instead of the traditional education model, it wants higher education to rely on high-tech educational academies that have entered into agreements with cities to train workers within months and then help with job placement.
Everything is, of course, verified by independent studies to confirm the rate of job placements. Under the federal plan, the government provides federal assistance to leverage training for these workers.
Asking for guarantees from politicians can be tough, and nailing them down on a specific stance is like nailing jello to a wall. At the same time, the White House seems to be committed to its $100 million spending promise and to working with businesses and local governments to make it happen.
House republicans oppose these efforts, however, because they claim that it's not fully paid for. The legislation referred to by Obama in the education deal allegedly includes specific offsets to close corporate tax loopholes and increases taxes on the wealthiest Americans.
But, Speaker John Boehner's spokesman said that the White House's proposed deal left much to be desired. The tax increase, according to republicans, puts more pressure on businesses, and increases taxes for everyone, ultimately, since employers tend to offset higher taxes with lower wages.
Boehner released a statement immediately after Obama's, promising to consider the proposal. However, he also criticized the president over his 2009 economic stimulus plan which was backed by the administration.
Among the proposed tax cuts Obama wants instituted adds to the $112 billion cut so far which allows employees to pay just 4.2 percent, instead of 6.2 percent, of the first $106,800 in wages to Social Security.
The president also wants to cut the payroll tax for employers to 3.1 percent on the first $5 million in wages.
Obama also wants to extend unemployment benefits to help people get back to work.
To many, this looks like another stimulus bill, but this time more targeted to a specific sector of the economy. If it works, it will be one of the largest stimuluses to the tech industry ever conceived. And, it will introduce a flood of candidates to the sector.
Is the sector ready? How far can technology grow? For supporters of the president, the sky is the limit. Technology seems to have no inherent growth ceiling. But, for critics, there is a limit and the Obama administration may already be hitting it.
The Congress has until November 23rd to approve $1.5 trillion in new deficit reduction options, so they can't sit on their hands for much longer. This should be encouraging to many Americans, who have either been out of a job for more than a year, or have been under-employed since the recession began in 2008.

Q: Why do I get "abort" on this program? Lets tallk about the next code sample:
#include <iostream>           // std::cout
#include <thread>             // std::thread
#include <mutex>              // std::mutex, std::unique_lock
#include <condition_variable> // std::condition_variable
#include <deque>

std::mutex mtx;
std::condition_variable cv;
bool ready = false;
std::deque<int> queue;

void Inserter()
{
    int count = 10;
    while (count >= 0)
    {
        std::unique_lock<std::mutex> lock(mtx);
        queue.push_back(count);
        --count;
        lock.unlock();
    }
}

void Consumer()
{
    int count = 10, got;

    while (count >= 0)
    {
        std::unique_lock<std::mutex> lock(mtx);
        if (!queue.empty())
        {
            got = queue.back();
            queue.pop_back();
            std::cout << "We got: " << got << std::endl;
            --count;
            lock.unlock();
        }
        else
        {
            lock.unlock();
        }
    }
}

int main()
{
    std::thread t1(Inserter);
    std::thread t2(Consumer);

    std::cin.get();
    return 0;
}

When I run this program I get "abort" but I shouldnt.
The only reason I see here to get abort is when I leaves locked lock without opened it - but there is no any reason for a lock to stay locked because after every loop I passes I open the lock.
What do you see the reason is?

A: You don't call std::thread::join in the main program.  When t2 goes out of scope, you call its destructor, and because you haven't  joined the thread, it causes an abort.
Incidentally, you don't need to call lock.unlock().  The whole point of std::unique_lock is that it will do that automatically when the object is destructed.  (And it would be much cleaner to declare got right where you get the value out of the queue.)
So your code should look like:
#include <iostream>           // std::cout
#include <thread>             // std::thread
#include <mutex>              // std::mutex, std::unique_lock
#include <deque>

std::mutex mtx;
std::deque<int> queue;

void Inserter()
{
    for (int count = 10; count >= 0; --count)
    {
        std::unique_lock<std::mutex> lock(mtx);
        queue.push_back(count);
    }
}

void Consumer()
{
    for (int count = 10; count >= 0; )
    {
        std::unique_lock<std::mutex> lock(mtx);
        if (!queue.empty())
        {
            const int got = queue.back();
            queue.pop_back();
            std::cout << "We got: " << got << std::endl;
            --count;
        }
    }
}

int main()
{
    std::thread t1(Inserter);
    std::thread t2(Consumer);

    t1.join();
    t2.join();

    std::cin.get();
    return 0;
}

The requirement to call join is because a common idiom is to make Inserter be a class derived from std::thread, and have the Inserter constructor pass a suitable thread function to the std::thread constructor.  If the class contained member variables which the thread method accessed, it would be bad if the thread method kept running after the object was destructed.  The standard requires you to avoid this by either calling join (in which case the thread method has finished), or by calling detach (in which case it is your responsibility to make sure you don't access variables which have gone out of scope).

A: To resolve the  issue you need to call std::thread::join on your both threads
int main(){

       std::thread t1(Inserter);
       std::thread t2(Consumer);
       t1.join();
       t2.join();

    return 0;
}

–?) – physician [vol. 24, p. 80]
Papin, Denys
, an ingenious physician, the son of Nicholas Papin, also a physician, was born at Blois. He took the degree of doctor, and travelled to England, where he was elected a fellow of the Royal Society, in December 1680. He passed the following year in London, and published in English an account of a machine which he had invented, and which still bears his name: this was "The New Digester, or Engine for the softening of Bones," 1681, 4to. It soon appeared in French, with the title of "La Maniere d'amollir les Os, et de faire cuire toutes sortes des Viandes en peu de terns et a peu de fraix," Paris, 1682. The machine consists of a very strong metal boiler, with an air-tight cover screwed down with great force; hence the contained matter, being incapable of escaping either by evaporation or by bursting the machine, may be heated to a degree far beyond that of boiling water, so as to dissolve the gluten of bones and cartilages. He afterwards improved this digester, and it has since been much employed in chemical and philosophical experiments. He assisted Boyle in various experiments, of which an account is given in the history of the Royal Society. Papin was a protestant, and being therefore prevented from returning home by the revocation of the edict of Nantes, he took up his residence at Marpurg, where he taught the mathematics, and published a "Fasciculus Dissertationum dequibusdam Machinis Physicis," 1696, 12mo; and in 1707 he published at Francfort an account of a machine which he had invented for raising water by the action of fire, entitled "Ars nova ad aquam ignis adminiculo efficacissime elevandam."
His father, Nicholas Papin, was author of several works, which, however, are nearly forgotten. Two of them related to the powder of Sympathy, which he defended; and one to the discovery of Harvey, which he opposed. 1
