Q: ASP.NET MVC GetFullHtmlFieldId not returing valid id I have taken a look at but it did not help me out

*

*GetFullHtmlFieldId returning incorrect id attribute value

*ASP.NET GetFullHtmlFieldId not returning valid id
Problem
Basically I have the following problem:
I have a custom validation attribute which requires to get the fieldId of the control
public class MyValidationAttribute : ValidationAttribute, IClientValidatable
{
    //...... Collapsed code
    public IEnumerable<ModelClientValidationRule> GetClientValidationRules(ModelMetadata metadata, ControllerContext context)
    {
        ViewContext vwContext = context as ViewContext;
        var fieldId = vwContext.ViewData.TemplateInfo.GetFullHtmlFieldId(metadata.PropertyName);

        //...... Collapsed code
        yield return clientValidationRule;
    }
    //...... Collapsed code
}

The result of GetFullHtmlFieldId depends on how I build my asp.net mvc page:
// Edit.cshtml or Create.cshtml
@Html.EditorFor(model => model.MyBoolProperty)
// Shared/EditorTemplates/Boolean.cshtml
@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model)

result of GetFullHtmlFieldId incorrect: MyBoolProperty_MyBoolProperty
// Edit.cshtml or Create.cshtml
@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.MyBoolProperty)

result of GetFullHtmlFieldId correct: MyBoolProperty

Even with more complex editors I see this incorrect behavior
// Edit.cshtml or Create.cshtml
@Html.EditorFor(model => model.JustAnArray[1].ComplexProperty.MyBooleanProperty)
// Shared/EditorTemplates/Boolean.cshtml
@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model)

result of GetFullHtmlFieldId incorrect: JustAnArray_1__ComplexProperty_MyBoolProperty_MyBoolProperty
// Edit.cshtml or Create.cshtml
@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.JustAnArray[1].ComplexProperty.MyBooleanProperty)

result of GetFullHtmlFieldId correct: JustAnArray_1__ComplexProperty_MyBoolProperty
Also this is returning correct value
// Edit.cshtml or Create.cshtml
@Html.EditorFor(model => model.JustAnArray[1])
// Shared/EditorTemplates/ComplexProperty.cshtml
@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.MyBooleanProperty)

result of GetFullHtmlFieldId correct: JustAnArray_1__ComplexProperty_MyBoolProperty
It looks like that using @Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model), it gives incorrect results but when using @Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.MyBoolProperty) it is working as expected
I have the same issue with other controls (like TextBoxFor)
Question
How can I get the proper fieldId of my control in my validation attribute, independent of how you build the page.
I'd rather use already existing methods (maybe the same methods as which are used by TextBoxFor and CheckBoxFor and other controls) than mimic this already existing functionality. If I mimic the generation of the fieldId, I have a change I don't take care of all situations where the ASP.NET controls take care of.

A: It seems that the valid prefix depends on the expressions used to build the page, and that isn't available to the GetClientValidationRules method. It would be great if someone has a solution for it, but as the method GetClientValidationRules is trying to initialize the data needed for the Javascript validation, you could try to resolve this on the client side.
On some of the default validation attributes like the [Compare], which depends on a second field, they set a parameter *.propertyName and in the unobtrusive adapter they replace the *. part with the valid prefix retrieved from the input name attribute. You could try a similar approach for the id.
However this would be needed if you were interested in another field. In this case it seems you are interested in the id of the very same input field that you are validating. You could then retrieve it from the input element itself. It will be available in both the unobtrusive adapter or the method itself:
//You could get it in the adapter and pass it to the validator in the "param"
adapters.add("dummy", function (options) {
    var fullFieldId = options.element.id;
    if (console) console.log("Full field id: " + fullFieldId);
    setValidationValues(options, "dummy", fullFieldId);
});
$jQval.addMethod("dummy", function (value, element, param) {
    var fullFieldId = param;
    //do whatever validation logic
    return true;
});

//You could also retrieve it directly in the validator method
$jQval.addMethod("dummy", function (value, element, param) {
    var fullFieldId = element.id;
    //do whatever validation logic
    return true;
});
adapters.add("dummy", function (options) {
    setValidationValues(options, "dummy", {});
});

Hope it helps!

The story of Riverside began in Piotr Kozieradzki's car while he was travelling with Piotr Grudziński. An idea was born in their heads to play neoprogressive music. This idea later materialized in the form of a new band – Riverside. At that time, Grudziński was playing the guitar in a metal outfit Unnamed, while Kozieradzki was playing drums in death metal bands Hate and Domain. To the surprise of Grudziński, "Clutching at straws", a song by a neoprogressive group Marillion, was being played through Mittloff's car speakers. It turned out that they were both interested in progressive music and would both like to have a try in this genre. A suggestion to meet at a rehearsal was put forward and it came off some months later, in late 2001.
Another person that took part in that rehearsal was Jacek Melnicki – a keyboard player that owned his own recording studio. That first jam session was allegedly not too inspiring but the second one changed everything. Melnicki brought in a new musician – bass player Mariusz Duda. From this point, the newly-founded project was a quartet what is even more important, during one of the rehearsals that followed Mariusz revealed his vocal talents. The other musicians liked his vocal improvisations used in then-still-instrumental early musical sketches and Mariusz became simultaneously a singer and a bass player.
Mariusz Duda was the last part of a jigsaw that completed the first line-up of the band. He did not need much time to prove how valuable he become to this new band. The moment he started to sing, it was obvious that he become a very important member of the band. Being a singer and a bass player, he would soon find himself to be the focal point of the band and its leader on stage. Before joining Riverside, Duda had already been a versatile musician. Apart from the bass guitar, which he played proficiently, he could also play keyboards and the guitar.

Take some of our Lemon-Basil Pesto and add a little red wine vinegar and lemon juice and BAM…you have a delicious salad dressing! Top this with some grilled chicken or shrimp for a delicious dinner and complete meal, or just do a little side salad (with a big impact) like I did here.
Combine all ingredients in a jar or bowl, whisk or shake to combine.
I drizzled a little over mixed spring greens and some arugula with a few sliced tomatoes and some quartered artichoke hearts.
Serving suggestions: Make a salad and top with grilled chicken or shrimp for a complete meal. Or do a side salad like I did here with a big impact!

As a result of reforestation, growth of exurban areas and wildlife adaptation, it is believed that the public is currently encountering more human-wildlife conflicts than ever before. The key to balancing wildlife conservation and human development is understanding the dynamic relationship between humans and carnivores. Specifically, gaining insight into the complexity of this relationship will aide in the creation of more effective conservation policy and outreach.
Wilderness Park, located in Lancaster County, Nebraska, is a public park of unique ecological and historical value to the city of Lincoln and to the surrounding region. The natural and historical features of the park present an opportunity to communicate environmental and historical topics that are relevant on local, national, and global levels, as well as inspire a lively sense of pride in the community. The problem is that many topics relevant to Wilderness Park are not currently being interpreted at the park, and that there are relatively few interpretive resources available to park visitors.

Health impact assessment (HIA) has emerged in the U.S. as one promising process to increase social and environmental justice through addressing health equity issues within planning. HIA practice is guided by values such as democracy and equity and grounded in broad social determinants of health. The most readily applied definition of democracy is problematic because it implies an element of direct, participatory engagement with the public. This is at odds with HIA practice that largely relies on stakeholder engagement strategies.
In 2010, Millennials, or those between 18 and 34, surpassed the Baby Boomers in population size. Today, Millennials, also known as Generation Y, make up over 25 percent of the United States' population. In Omaha, they make up 26.9 percent of the population. The next largest generation in Omaha, the Baby Boomers, make for 19.2 percent of the population. Clearly, this emerging demographic has the ability to change the way we create and design our built environment if it so chooses.
City streets are the most widely distributed and heavily trafficked urban public spaces. As cities strive to improve livability in the built environment, it is important for planners and designers to have a concise understanding of what contributes to quality streetscapes. The proportions and scale of buildings and trees, which define the three-dimensional extents of streetscapes, provide enduring, foundational skeletons. This thesis investigates how characteristics of such streetscape skeletons can be quantified and tested for appeal among human users.

We have seen how lowering cholesterol is not a good idea and how the supposedly "bad" cholesterol is not bad at all, but it is used by the body to transport cholesterol, fats and fat soluble vitamins that are essential for health. One of these fat soluble vitamins is vitamin K. Without LDL carrying it our heart will suffer. But what is vitamin K?, how are electrolytes and vitamin K related? How is it that such an important mineral like calcium can cause dangerous calcification of our blood vessels? Let's start our discussion talking about what electrolytes are and what they do in the body.
Electrolytes, the spark of life.
Electrolytes, according to Dr. Bernard Jensen in his book "Come Alive!", make up 70-80% of all minerals in the body and are so vital to health that life couldn't be possible without them. The electrolytes are: sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, bicarbonate, phosphate and sulfate.
If we look up the definition in the dictionary, electricity is defined as 'a fundamental form of energy observable in positive and negative forms that occurs naturally (as in lightning) or is produced (as in a generator) that is expressed in terms of the movement and interaction of electrons' This is exactly how electrolytes work in the body and in the heart. More specifically, an electrolyte can split into two electrically-charged particles (ions) when dissolved in a fluid like water or blood plasma where they can conduct electricity. It is this ability to conduct electricity that makes electrolytes essential for heart health. When electricity doesn't flow correctly we can experience a 'shortcircuit', a problem with heart rhythm.
Electrolytes are always active and changing, they enter the body in a specific combination, like calcium aspartate, but as soon as they are dissolved in the blood or lymph, they split up into two charged ions. In the case of calcium aspartate, we get calcium + aspartate. Then they can move from one electrical level to another, recombining with other ions as they continue changing, working and influencing one another and the cells around them.
Dr. Bernard Jensen explained that the electricity carried by charged particles in our body is the same we find in lightning, although smaller. "Life is movement and movement is caused by electrical impulses…as well as by changes in blood pressure, fluid volume and the physical pumping of the heart". When electrolytes split into two oppositely charged minerals, these minerals come alive. In their electrically charged form, minerals can attach themselves to proteins to become parts of enzymes, coenzymes, hormones, vitamins, nucleic factors and other very important substances in the body. Sodium and potassium even play an active part in the transmission of electrical impulses from one nerve cell to another.
In addition, there is an energy field around every internal organ that changes depending on the health of the organ. If you ever heard of 'auras' you know auras are the electric energy around our body that can be photographed with Kirlian photography. A sick person will emanate a 'dimmer' aura than a healthy person. Each organ, he said, has its own electrical charge. Calcium for example has a positive charge and is found in the hard tissues like bones, teeth, cartilage, while the soft tissues are negatively charged.
Functions of electrolytes in the body.
Helping sustain balance in the body and helping the body use nutrients. Dr. Bernard Jensen quotes Dr. Quigley saying " people with a sufficient intake of calcium, iron and iodine plus vitamins will have a resistance against ordinary disease…fatigue, will be able to retain all physical faculties to a greater age and will have a better mind than the person who suffers from some single or multiple vitamin or mineral deficiency. The various vitamins and minerals are all necessary". When all the systems are in balance the body's internal chemistry can work properly. This is why a balanced nutrition is so important because all and each of the nutrients work together and they must all be present in adequate amounts.
Keeping the acid-alkaline balance in the body. The normal state of the blood is slightly alkaline, limited to a range between 7.3 pH to 7.45. Neutral is 7, acidic is below 7, and above 7 is alkaline. This is important to mention because most of the mineral processes in the body can only happen in the narrow pH between 7.35 and 7.45 and a temperature close to 98.6 F. This is the temperature at which the body's enzymes are designed to trigger mineral processes. Certain electrolytes constantly neutralize acids to keep the pH of the blood at the right range. The acid-alkaline balance is kept in check by the electrolytes. This makes them very important for health. What is more, calcium is alkaline, when our blood is too acidic our body will make calcium leak from our bones to try to alkalinize the blood again. This is not a desirable situation. The major cause of acidity in the blood is a diet high in refined sugars , which can cause calcium loss from our bones , and many other problems. Another major cause of calcium loss is drinking carbonated drinks. It is more prevalent nowadays to find young teens, specially girls, having bone fractures.
Nerve transmission. Nerves are like living wires that conduct electricity. As nerve cells are next to each other, the 'head' of one touches the 'foot' of the next one. Potassium is found inside the cells, sodium outside. As nerve impulses pass from cell to cell, the sodium ions move inside the cell and potassium leaves the cell. The nerve impulse jumps the space found between cells (called synapse) and enters the head of the next nerve cell till it reaches its destination. As it passes, the potassium ions re-enter the cell and sodium leaves the cell. The key for this transport of electricity is electrolytes.
Muscle contraction. What makes muscle contraction possible is electrically charged calcium ions, which are released when a nerve signal reaches a muscle cell. The energy for the contraction is provided by two phosphate-containing substances, which are transformed into energy with magnesium and enzymes working together. Muscle contraction then depends on the electrically charged ions of calcium, magnesium and phosphate, initiated by a nerve impulse that requires potassium and sodium at every nerve synapse that travels through the nerve impulse from the brain to the muscle. From this we can infer how all these electrolytes help the heart muscle contract, making them essential for heart health.
Osmotic pressure. This refers to the movement of water through the cell's membrane into a more concentrated solution in order to equalize the concentrations of both on the two sides of the membrane. This is facilitated by electrolytes.
Maintaining the proper mineral and water balance of the body. Body fluid volume depends on sodium. While sodium and potassium are found together in the body, potassium is usually conserved in the body, while sodium is usually excreted through urine or sweat . Up to 8 grams can be lost in one day of hard work. Salt depletion is marked by fatigue, dizziness, cramps, nausea and vomiting and it goes together with water loss. The best way to turn this is to drink water and/or eat fresh vegetables. This is specially important for the elderly and children in very hot summer days, and people on a low salt diet. Not replenishing the electrolytes can be deadly!
Sodium protects the gastrointestinal walls, the joints and synovial membranes. It also helps keep calcium in solution. Potassium protects the heart and muscles. Potassium is twice as abundant in the body as sodium.
Table salt (sodium and chloride) overdoses the body with sodium the body cannot use. Table salt sodium is not food sodium, it behaves more like a drug than a food. It causes water to be held in the tissues. Food sodium , however, disperses little by little in the blood as the food is broken down, digested and assimilated. Food sodium is assimilated and stored in the walls of the stomach and the bowel, where it neutralizes excess acids and protects the stomach and the bowel from acids. Sodium is also stored in the joints where it keeps them flexible and prevents calcium from coming out of solution to deposit in the joints as spurs.
A good move for your heart health is to replace table salt with sea salt. Sea salt is evaporated sea water electrically charged with solar energy. It contains all the minerals in a balanced way so it is a great way to replenish your electrolytes. Dissolving 1/2 to 1 tsp of sea salt in water is a better option to replenish lost electrolytes than many 'energy' drinks which are loaded with sugar and other things the body doesn't need. This is a must in very hot days or when you are exercising and sweating a lot.
To learn more about the importance of electrolytes in the diet , please tune in next week. Thanks for reading.
Electrolyte deficiency can cause the following health problems: Aging, chronic fatigue, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, skin problems, clogged arteries, digestive problems, allergies, arthritis, eye problems, hyperactivity, ADD, infertility, heart disease, cancer, constipation and sinus infections.
Electrolytes can be lost by vomiting, diarrhea, high fevers, sweating or overexercising in hot weather, even drinking too much water can flush them out of the body and cause an imbalance. Babies are specially vulnerable to electrolyte loss. If electrolytes are not replenished fast enough it can cause death. Physical and mental stress deplete them. In a study it was shown how five days of intense stress can deplete from 9 to 44% of the body's electrolytes. Another study showed how the mortality rate in a group of 35-74 year old white males was higher in a geographical area where certain minerals were depleted from the soil and water.
The most common cause of mineral deficiency is soil depletion, which makes it depleted in the foods we eat. Unless soil depletion is something we can change, supplementation is the best alternative.
Teeth enamel, which is almost 100% calcium phosphate. 99% of the body's calcium is in the bones and teeth. The enamel of teeth has more mineral content than any other tissue, gland or organ in the body including bones.
Bone. Bones are made up of calcium, a protein framework (35% of the total skeleton weight) and the other electrolytes.
Calcium is one of the minerals that is unsufficient in large amounts of the population. Specially premenopausal women don't have enough calcium in their diets to serve as a reserve for the calcium needed for the postmenopausal loss when hormone levels change. Because of this, osteoporosis, (a calcium deficiency disease), is almost an epidemic in postmenopausal women. When there is not enough calcium in the diet, the body will 'borrow' it from bones to compensate for the deficiency.
Calcium is used in the clotting of blood. Also, it works with magnesium to prevent the risk of diabetes and heart disease. Both calcium and magnesium combine with certain enzymes that break down food, produce energy, form proteins and help make DNA. Together with sodium and potassium, calcium and magnesium are among the most important of electrolytes. Phosphates work together with calcium in major energy production cycles.
A very important factor regarding calcium is assimilation, people with low stomach acid cannot absorb it. If calcium is not dissolved when it reaches the small intestine it is excreted. According to pharmacist Ben Fuchs, calcium also needs vitamin K to be absorbed. This is a very important aspect in calcium metabolism and it's one that often gets overlooked, accounting for the dangerous calcification of soft tissue: arteries, heart, brain and kidneys. According to him, "In the absence of Vitamin K,… calcium can begin to accumulate in the blood and in various tissues. This accumulation is referred to as "calcification"… It means a hardening of soft tissues and fluids. Vessels are especially prone to calcification. This can result in poor blood flow and further impaired health".
How can we take vitamin K? one way is through food: fermented soy product called natto, organ meats (especially liver), cottage cheese, hard cheese and butter. Another way is supplements, vitamin K is available in two main forms K1 and K2. Vitamin K2 which is more potent and has better anti-calcification properties than Vitamin K1. 1000-5000 mcg a day is a good dose. Since vitamin K is a fatty vitamin, it depends on cholesterol to be transported through the blood.
Sea salt which has all the minerals, instead of table salt which only has two. If you use sea salt regularly in your cooking, it will allow your body to be flooded with minerals so when you take your other nutrients, they will be absorbed better.
Calcium Extract from Healthy Hearts Club which will give you calcium in liquid form so it's easier for the body to absorb.
High doses of vitamin K2, Carlson Labs has a product with 5 grams per pill, you can find it online.
Then, it would be a good idea to use some ocean 'mineral' like seaweed. Dr. Bernard Jensen has a product called " Nova Scotia Dulse" that is very high in minerals, which he personally recommended for his patients.
Vitamin A+D. They both work together so it's best to take them together. Carlson Labs has a vitamin good quality A+D product without soy. Around 20,000 IU per day is a good dose.
Taurine. This amazing amino acid will not only help you assimilate your electrolytes, it will also help you absorb fats. According to Ben Fuchs, it "Helps lower blood pressure and improves the excretion of excess fluid which takes pressure off of blood vessels. Strengthens heart muscle and helps maintain calcium balance in heart cells. Critical in maintaining heart muscle contraction." It is very unexpensive, you can buy 8 oz. for $4 , and it goes to work right away. The best form is in powder rather than pills. If you feel your heart is racing and you need to slow your heartbeat, taurine has a calming effect on the heart's electrical energy. It is a must for heart health! We will be talking more extensively about taurine in our next blogs. Please stay tuned!
In conclusion, the body needs a balance of all the nutrients. Since calcium needs other nutrients to be absorbed, it is a good idea to have them all present in the diet.

Fettle Studio / Grammercy Cottage, Shaftesbury
Originally built as a small farm cottage in the 1700s, this listed thatched cottage in Dorset was poorly neglected and dilapidated when purchased by the current owner in 2016.
The building had historically been extended to create two cottages on the site, and then later combined into one single family home, with a large inglenook to the main living room, central staircase and entrance porch. The building was added to in the 1960s with single storey extensions around the sides and rear, forming the kitchen, utility and workroom. The building was Grade II listed in 1985.
Fettle Studio worked closely with the client to carefully understand the historic building and its development over the years, to inform the new works. Fettle Studio prepared the Planning and Listed Building Application, including Heritage Statement, with approval granted in 2021.
Proposed works include a full scale renovation of the existing building, new timber cladding to the existing ground floor extensions, plus a green oak framed side extension to create a larger kitchen-diner, with long reaching views over the garden.
Inside, the current bedrooms are small and the bathroom is awkward - these will be reorganised within the historic fabric to create well proportioned, characterful rooms, and the workroom downstairs converted to a bedroom suite. The currently steep and awkward stairs will be rebuilt, and the front door relocated to open into the large existing hall space. The dilapidated porch will be replaced and widened, completing the restoration of this characterful country cottage.
For now, the renovations have just begun!

Dallas Stars: Conn Smythe Favorite
By: Brodie Cotnam
Tagged: Conn Smythe, Dallas Stars
With the Dallas Stars looking to make their first trip back to the Stanley Cup Finals since losing to New Jersey in 2000, here's a look at the front runners for the Conn Smythe Trophy should they claim Lord Stanley's Cup.
Front runner:
Miro Heiskanen: There really has to be one consensus pick at this point for Dallas. The young stalwart has shown why the Stars were reticent to move in him in a potential deal for Erik Karlsson and his play has many believing he'll likely join him as a Norris Trophy winner before long. Already in the conversation with the like of Cale Makar and Rasmus Dahlin amongst the league's best young blueliners. This postseason has seen him emerge into the spotlight for the entire hockey world to take notice.
He's put up an incredible 21 points in just 16 games (surpassing Sergei Zubov's team record for defenceman) six points clear of his closest teammate Gurianov. Add to this nearly 26 minutes a night. With 8 of those points coming on the power play you can understand how vital he is to the Stars, special teams. He skates well, moves the puck effectively, and while not their most efficient shutdown guy, has been reasonably sound in his own end. Alongside John Klingberg he's relied on to carry a huge workload and epitomizes everything an MVP stands for. Heiskanen controls the game whenever he's out there. The young Finn has his eyes set on the Cup but if the Stars are crowned champions, he'll very likely add some additional hardware.
Dark Horses:
Like any good race, there are always a few competitors nipping at the heels, or at least near enough to make it interesting:
Denis Gurianov: Dubbed Goal-ianov, he's potted 8 markers to stand amongst the playoff leaders and his incredible speed makes him dangerous whenever he's on the ice. He's second on the team with 15 points and with the top line of Benn, Seguin & Radulov chipping in only intermittently, they'll need his depth scoring to continue if they've any hope of hoisting the Stanley Cup.
Joe Pavelski: After coming over as a free agent from San Jose, the former Sharks captain had a down season by his standards (Just 31 pts in 66 gms) but as is often the case, he's stepped it up when it's mattered most. With 8 goals so far he's among the playoff leaders and is a key upfront for the Stars. His willingness to go to the dirty areas and ability to tip pucks in front is second to none. His veteran presence and prowess on the penalty kill are certainly key contributions as well.
For Dallas to advance, it will take not only the three players mentioned above but a solid team effort to shut down a smooth-skating hard-hitting Vegas Golden Knights team in the Western Conference finals.

The Lancet: Study reports preliminary efficacy and safety results from interim analysis of Russian COVID-19 phase 3 vaccine trial
Interim analysis from phase 3 trial of nearly 20,000 participants suggests efficacy of two-dose regimen of the adenovirus-based vaccine is 91.6% against symptomatic COVID-19 – trial reports 16 COVID-19 cases in the vaccine group (0.1% [16/14,964) and 62 cases (1.3% [62/4,902]) in the placebo group.
No serious adverse events were deemed to be associated with vaccination, and most reported adverse events were mild, including flu-like symptoms, pain at injection site and weakness or low energy.
Sub-analysis of 2,000 adults older than 60 years suggests the vaccine is similarly effective and well tolerated in this group.
Trial is ongoing and aiming to include a total of 40,000 participants – monitoring of safety and efficacy continues.
(February 2, 2021) — An interim analysis of data from the phase 3 trial of the COVID-19 vaccine from Russia (Gam-COVID-Vac) suggests that a two-dose regimen of the adenovirus-based vaccine offers 91.6% efficacy against symptomatic COVID-19. The preliminary findings, published in The Lancet, are based on analysis of data from nearly 20,000 participants, three-quarters of whom received the vaccine and one quarter received a placebo.
Serious adverse events (those requiring hospital admission) were rare in both the placebo (0.4% [23/5,435]) and vaccine (0.2% [45/16,427]) groups and none were considered associated with vaccination. Four deaths were reported in the trial, none of which were considered related to the vaccine. Most reported adverse events were mild, including flu-like symptoms, pain at injection site and weakness or low energy.
The Gam-COVID-Vac is a two-part vaccine that includes two adenovirus vectors – recombinant human adenovirus type 26 (rAd26-S) and recombinant human adenovirus type 5 (rAd5-S) – which have been modified to express the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The adenoviruses are also weakened so that they cannot replicate in human cells and cannot cause disease. Adenoviral vector vaccines have been previously used, and their safety has been confirmed in several clinical studies.
In this trial, participants were given one dose of rAd26-S, followed by a booster dose of rAd5-S 21 days later. The authors explain that using a different adenovirus vector for the booster vaccination may help create a more powerful immune response (compared with using the same vector twice), as it minimises the risk of the immune system developing resistance to the initial vector.
"Our interim analysis of the randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial of Gam-COVID-Vac in Russia has shown high efficacy, immunogenicity, and a good tolerability profile in participants aged 18 years or older," says Dr Inna V Dolzhikova, co-lead author, Gamaleya National Research Centre for Epidemiology and Microbiology, Russia. [1]
Worldwide, 64 candidate COVID-19 vaccines are currently in clinical assessment (including 13 vaccine candidates at phase 3) and 173 vaccines are in preclinical analyses. Phase 3 candidate vaccines include a variety of vaccine platforms, such as vector vaccines, mRNA vaccines, inactivated vaccines, and adjuvanted recombinant protein nanoparticles.
"Stopping the COVID-19 pandemic requires the introduction of different vaccines based on different mechanisms of action to cover diverse global health demands. Our vaccine, along with other SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, helps to diversify the world SARS-CoV-2 vaccine pipeline," says Dr Denis Logunov, co-lead author, Gamaleya National Research Centre for Epidemiology and Microbiology, Russia. [1]
Between Sept 7 and Nov 24, 2020, a total of 21,977 adults were randomly assigned to receive the vaccine (16,501) or placebo (5,476). The trial was conducted across 25 hospitals and polyclinics in Moscow, Russia. 14,964 participants in the vaccine group and 4,902 in the placebo group received two doses of the vaccine or placebo and were included in the primary interim efficacy analysis reported today. PCR tests were done at screening and at dose 2 (21 days). A further PCR test was done if participants reported symptoms of respiratory infection. Efficacy of the vaccine was calculated on the basis of the proportion of participants with PCR-confirmed COVID-19.
From 21 days after receiving the first dose (the day of dose 2), 16 cases of symptomatic COVID-19 were confirmed in the vaccine group (0.1% [16/14,964) and 62 cases (1.3% [62/4,902]) in the placebo group – equivalent to an efficacy of 91.6%.
The vaccine induced a robust humoral response (also called antibody response) and cellular immune response (also called T-cell response) with data from 342 and 44 participants, respectively. Six of the 342 participants did not mount an immune response following vaccination, possibly due to older age or individual characteristics.
The authors note that because COVID-19 cases were detected only when participants self-reported symptoms (followed by a PCR test), the efficacy analysis only includes symptomatic cases of COVID-19, and further research is needed to understand the efficacy of the vaccine on asymptomatic COVID-19, and transmission. Furthermore, median follow up was 48 days from the first dose, so the study cannot assess the full duration of protection.
Adverse events were monitored via electronic medical records, electronic diaries and telemedicine consultations. Data on serious adverse events were analysed for 21,862 participants who received at least one dose of the vaccine (16,427) or the placebo (5,435). 70 serious adverse events were reported in 68 participants, including 45 (0.2% [45/16,427]) participants in the vaccine group, and 23 (0.4% [23/5,435]) participants in the placebo group. None of the serious adverse events were considered associated with vaccination.
During the trial, four deaths were recorded – three (<0.1% [3/16,427]) in the vaccine group, and one (<0.1% [1/5,435]) in the placebo group. In the vaccine group, one death was associated with a fracture. Two had underlying conditions and developed symptoms of COVID-19 4-5 days after the first dose of the vaccine. Based on the incubation period of the disease, both participants were deemed to have already been infected before inclusion in the trial, despite a negative PCR test. In the placebo group, the death was associated with a stroke. None of the deaths were deemed to be associated with vaccination.
Data on serious adverse events were available for all participants at the time the interim analysis was completed – among these, verified data on general adverse events was available for 12,296 participants (9,258 in the vaccine group and 4,902 in the placebo group). Most of the reported adverse events (94% [7,485/7,966]) were mild (grade 1), and included flu-like illness, injection site reactions, headache, and asthenia (physical weakness or low energy). 451 were grade 2 (5.66%) and 30 were grade 3 (0.38%).
The trial included 2,144 participants older than 60 years, and vaccine efficacy was 91.8% in this group. The vaccine was well tolerated and safety data from 1,369 of these older adults found that the most common adverse events were flu-like symptoms and local reaction. There were three episodes of serious adverse events in the placebo group (urolithiasis, sinusitis and flu-like illness) and three in the vaccine group (renal colic, deep vein thrombosis and extremity abscess). No association was found between the adverse events and vaccination.
As part of their secondary analyses, the authors explored the efficacy of the vaccine against moderate or severe COVID-19. At 21 days after the first dose, there were no cases of moderate or severe COVID-19 in the vaccine group and 20 cases in the placebo group, equivalent to an efficacy of 100% against moderate or severe COVID-19.
Although the study was not designed to assess the efficacy of a single-dose regimen, the findings hint to the early onset of a partially protective effect 16-18 days after a single-dose immunisation. From day 15-21, efficacy against moderate or severe COVID-19 was 73.6%, but further research is required to draw any robust conclusions from these observations. The research team have recently received approval to investigate the effectiveness of a single-dose regimen of the vaccine.
Most participants in the trial were white so further research will be needed to confirm the results in a more diverse group of participants. Although the study enrolled participants with comorbidities, not all risk groups are represented. All participants were aged over 18 years, and the authors report a need for further research to investigate the vaccine in adolescents and children, as well as pregnant women. The trial is ongoing and aiming to include a total of 40,000 participants – monitoring of safety and efficacy continues.
The phase 3 trial published today follows an earlier phase 1/2 trial [2] that reported safety and immunogenicity of two different formulations (one frozen, one freeze-dried) of the two-part vaccine. In this study, the liquid form of the vaccine was used, which requires storage at -18C. Storage at 2-8°C has also been approved.
Writing in a linked Comment, Professor Ian Jones, University of Reading, and Professor Polly Roy, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, UK (who were not involved in the study), say: "The development of the Sputnik V vaccine has been criticised for unseemly haste, corner cutting, and an absence of transparency. But the outcome reported here is clear and the scientific principle of vaccination is demonstrated, which means another vaccine can now join the fight to reduce the incidence of COVID-19."
This study was funded by the Moscow City Health Department and Russian Direct Investment Fund, Sberbank PJSC and UC RUSAL.

A great concern with plea-bargains is that they may induce innocent individuals to plead guilty to crimes they have not committed. In this article, we identify schemes that reduce the number of innocent-pleas without affecting guilty individuals' plea-bargain incentives. Large compensations for exonerees reduce expected costs associated with wrongful determinations of guilt in trial and thereby reduce the number of innocent-pleas. Any distortions in guilty individuals' incentives to take plea bargains caused by these compensations can be off-set by a small increase in the discounts offered for pleading guilty. Although there are many statutory reform proposals for increasing exoneration compensations, no one has yet noted this desirable separating effect of exoneree compensations. We argue that such reforms are likely to achieve this result without causing deterrence losses.

Q: Using a randomly generated folder name in a directory tree? I am trying to make a single batch file to both backup and restore cookies for my favorite online game, but ran into a problem when trying to navigate past the randomly-named folder Chrome uses to house its cookies.
I tried using the FOR command to get a variable that would give me the name of the folder, and then I would use the variable later in the directories. The variable worked fine when ECHO'd, but then became %G when put into the directory.
At first I put in my code, but it was an ugly block of text, so here's just a sampling:
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('dir /B /AD "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Pepper Data\Shockwave Flash\WritableRoot\#SharedObjects"') DO (
echo %%G )

This returned an echo of the correct folder name :)
But when I used %%G in a directory:
copy "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Pepper Data\Shockwave Flash\WritableRoot\#SharedObjects\%%G\chat.kongregate.com\antiIdle_file0" "%HOMEPATH%\My Documents\Anti-Idle backup\antiIdle_file0.sol" /D /E /C /R /I /K /Y

When testing the variable with ECHO in front of it, %%G shows up as %G instead of the random string of numbers that should show up as.
If I am doing something wrong, please critique me. If you have a suggestion or an alternate way to handle this, please tell me.
Thanks in advance.

A: %%G is only valid in the context of the FORhence you need to include your COPY command between the parentheses following the DO
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN (
'dir ...blahblahblah...SharedObjects"') DO (
echo %%G
copy "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\...blah..SharedObjects\%%G\...zzzz...file0" "%HOMEPATH%...etc.._file0.sol" /D /E /C /R /I /K /Y
)

Obviously, the echo %%G is optional.
(it's OK to break the command into separate lines - with care. Critical that the open-parenthesis is on the same line as the DO )
Another way is
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN (
 'dir ...blahblahblah...SharedObjects"') DO set "target=%%G"
copy "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\...blah..SharedObjects\%TARGET%\...zzzz...file0" "%HOMEPATH%...etc.._file0.sol" /D /E /C /R /I /K /Y

Noting that the CASE of the metavariable(%%G) is critical, but the name and case of TARGET is not.

A: You could also do a recursive search for chat.kongregate.com.
for /f "delims=" %%I in ('dir /s /b /a:d "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\*chat.kongregate.com"') do (
    copy /d /y "%%I\antiIdle_file0" "%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\Anti-Idle backup\antiIdle_file0.sol"
)

A: If you want to find the folder in one part of your code and use it elsewhere, you can use the for loop to set another variable, and use that other one for the copy later.
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('dir /B /AD "...your path..."') DO (
    SET FolderPath=%%G
)

... and elsewhere:
COPY "...source file..." "%FolderPath%"

Sarfaraz Ahmed believes 'result could've been different' in second Test
Sarfaraz leads Pakistan to thrilling draw with New Zealand
Sarfaraz Ahmed continued his red-hot form with a thrilling century to help Pakistan draw a nail-biting second and final test against New Zealand as the series ended 0-0 on Friday.
The 35-year-old Sarfaraz, who also struck half-centuries in his three previous innings after being recalled for the series following a near-four year absence, made 118 before the last-wicket pair hung on in dimming light for 21 balls to take Pakistan to 304-9, just 15 runs shy of its victory target.
"Dream comeback for him," captain Babar Azam said. "Sarfaraz did not let the fire die within him in four years. His work ethic was always there and he continued to wait for his turn."
New Zealand took seven wickets on the final day and was within one more scalp of forcing a win.
Sarfaraz stood firm for 4 fours and 48 minutes and featured in a second successive century stand with Saud Shakeel (32) after the Black Caps had reduced Pakistan to 80-5 before lunch thanks to Michael Bracewell (4-75) claiming two wickets in six deliveries.
Sarfaraz and Shakeel defied New Zealand for nearly three hours before Shakeel fell to a brilliant reflex catch in the slips by Daryl Mitchell early in the final session.
Agha Salman made a brisk 30 but was clean bowled by Matt Henry before New Zealand struck twice with the second new ball under fading light.
Hasan Ali was trapped leg before wicket by Tim Southee and Sarfaraz was superbly snapped up by Kane Williamson low at leg slip off Bracewell's sharp off-spin, and the Pakistan batter walked off to a standing ovation from the sparse crowd at the National Stadium.
No. 10 Naseem Shah and No. 11 Abrar Ahmed then held out against Bracewell and fellow spinner Ish Sodhi (2-59), with all 10 fielders around the bat, before bad light ended play with three overs left.
"Came down to the last moments, great end to 10 days of pretty tough toil," said New Zealand captain Tim Southee. "We knew from the nature of the sur-face that things could happen late in the test but Sarfaraz was probably the difference. We could've won had we got him earlier.
Sarfaraz, who hit nine fours and a six in his first test century since making 112 against New Zealand in Dubai in 2014, said: "When 140 runs were left (in the final session), the management said that you need to keep trying to score when the ball is there to hit. If those two wickets didn't fall then the result could've been something else."
"I was part of the team for four years and despite not getting chances here, I was continuing to play well elsewhere. Wanted an opportunity from Allah Almighty and got it," Ahmed said during the post-match presentation ceremony.
"I was very tense in the first Test, but the boys and captain gave me confidence. [Last session today] when 140 runs were left, the management said that you need to keep trying to score when the ball is there to hit."
"But then two wickets fell, and so we changed our style of play. If those two wickets didn't fall then the result could've been something else," he added.
The former captain scored an impressive ton bearing in mind the fact that his side was 80-5 at one stage in the second innings while chasing a target of 319 runs.
"It is a fourth-innings century so it is special, probably my best," he said when asked if it was the best innings of his career.
The 35-year-old also thanked the crowd in Ka-rachi and requested them to visit the stadium for the ODI series as well, which starts on January 9.
"Karachi crowd has always supported me. And always supported the team. Request them to come for the ODIs too," he concluded.
Ahmed was named the player of the match and series after scoring 335 runs in four innings, with the help of three fifties and a hundred.
It must be noted that the two-match Test series between Pakistan and New Zealand ended in a draw after both encounters failed to produce a result.—APP

Bombardier announced significant enhancements to its customer support capabilities for business aircraft customers in China on the eve of this year's Asian Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition (ABACE).
Bombardier's centrally located Service Centre in Tianjin has received Authorized Service Centre status from engine manufacturers Rolls-Royce, GE and Honeywell. This authorization demonstrates the confidence these renowned companies have in the abilities of this facility's world-class technicians. Our customers can now have the engines of their business jets serviced in China by the team who knows their aircraft best.
Bombardier is also pleased to announce new line maintenance services at its Tianjin Service Centre. This new team offers AOG mobile repair as well as unscheduled and scheduled maintenance services on various Challenger and Global aircraft registered with the following regulatory bodies: EASA, FAA, Canada, Bermuda, Cayman Islands, Aruba, Qatar, Isle of Man, San Marino and Guernsey.
Bombardier's Tianjin Service Centre has obtained approvals from a growing number of aviation authorities since opening two years ago and can now offer a full scope of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance services for Global, Challenger and Learjet aircraft registered in China, Hong Kong, Macau, Cayman Islands and Bermuda. Certification is in progress for further expanded capabilities under FAA and EASA.
Bombardier's Tianjin Service Centre was inaugurated in April 2017 in collaboration with the Tianjin Airport Economic Area (TAEA). Two years later, the facility's expanded services are a testament to Bombardier's dedication to growing business aviation in the Greater China region and to strengthening its relationship with TAEA.
Bombardier also has two regional support offices in Hong Kong and Beijing and two regional parts depots in Hong Kong and Tianjin.
Enhancements to customer support capabilities in China are part of Bombardier's commitment to providing exceptional service worldwide. In February, Bombardier announced the expansion of its Singapore Service Centre, which will more than quadruple its footprint. In October 2018, Bombardier announced it will more than double its customer service footprint in Florida with a new service centre. This is in addition to the entry-into-service of a Challenger 300 support aircraft stationed in Europe.


A school bus sits outside a Jacksonville, Fla., fire station after its driver brought a student there who had been shot.
A 17-year-old high school student in Jacksonville, Fla., was shot and critically wounded Wednesday morning while walking to his school bus stop.
WJXT-TV reports that the wounded student was able to board the bus, and the driver rushed him to a nearby fire station.
The teen, who attends Westside High School in Jacksonville, was taken from the fire station to a hospital, where he was in surgery.
Jacksonville Sheriff's Lt. Will Janes said a black vehicle approached the boy at about 6:15 a.m. as he was walking toward his bus stop.
Someone inside opened fire. The student was hit one time, but was able to get to the bus stop and was loaded onto the bus.
Duval County School Board member Scott Shine says the teen was shot in the chest.
Police did not have any description of the shooter.
Shine says two students at the bus stop did not cooperate with officers' questions and tried to take an officer's taser. One of those students was tased and taken to a local hospital as a precaution. Both of those students will be arrested, officials say.
Westside High School Principal Rebecca Raulerson went to the fire station where the other students were being questioned. Most of the 21 students on the bus attend Westside High; one goes to Bridge to Success and another to Frank H. Peterson Academies.

The Pest Detectives
The definitive history of Rentokil
By Rob Gray
Rentokil is the heart and soul of pest control. A brand synonymous with its field and familiar to all. Innovative, ground-breaking, highly professional; renowned for scientific rigour and go-the-extra-mile customer service. At last, here's a book that tells the full story of Rentokil's rise into an international powerhouse – and the pest problems it encountered and solved along the way.
The Pest Detectives explores the origins of the brand, including the story of founder Professor Harold Maxwell-Lefroy, a brilliant yet tragic figure; Britain's first Imperial Entomologist and one of the foremost scientific minds of the early 20th century. It covers the personalities, big deals, landmark assignments and technical accomplishments that shaped the business.
But as well as looking back, The Pest Detectives is very much a book about the business today: the culture, the strategy, the significant investment in innovation and training required to ensure Rentokil will still be at the forefront of the pest control market another 90 years from now. Through interviews with senior managers and talented 'pest detectives' on the ground, Rob Gray paints a picture of what the brand stands for and where it is going. A compelling picture of the greatest pest control business there has ever been.
Rob Gray has been a journalist since 1988. His work has appeared in a wide variety of publications, from newspapers such as The Financial Times and The Guardian through to business titles including HR Magazine, The Marketer, Campaign, Broadcast and Management Today. Aside from developing a healthy respect for the challenges of pest control, Rob writes about brands, marketing, corporate communications, innovation, organisational development and people.
For over a decade, Rob has worked in a part-time freelance capacity as head of editorial content at the International Public Relations Association, where he is responsible for commissioning and editing the IPRA Thought Leadership series of essays on trends in media and communications. His previous book, Great Brand Blunders: The worst marketing and social media meltdowns of all time...and how to avoid your own (Crimson Publishing) explores the root causes of marketing disasters, takes idiocy to task and is packed with good advice on steering clear of potentially damaging pitfalls. It attracted widespread praise: "excellent" - Forbes; "You simply must read this book" - Marketing magazine; Chartered Institute of Marketing Book of the Month.
Rob has spoken at conferences and events, including the Eurobest Festival of Creativity in Lisbon. He lives with his wife Ginny on the border of Northamptonshire and Oxfordshire.

In an election year all news channels are supersaturated with electioneering, most of the time oblivious to the fact that many other newsworthy events and developments are happening around the world which may affect our livelihood and even the future of the country.
Two wars that the Bush administration began — Iraq and Afghanistan — are continuing with the same ferocity and draining our economy. The Clinton Administration concluded its second term with a surplus in the budget. The Bush-Cheney administration left behind an abysmal deficit, on top of depleting the surplus. Since President Barack Obama was elected, every legislative initiative has been opposed by Republicans — even at the cost of hurting the country — just to hamper his reelection chances. That, of course, will give ammunition to the Republican camp that the Obama administration failed to improve the economy, which on the surface may sound true, if they can discount the Bush-era debacle. Republican president candidate Mitt Romney began his campaign at the height of the economic crisis, giving a positive spin to the campaign as a successful businessman who could inject some hope in the gloomy business climate. But as his campaign has progressed and his credentials have been placed under rigorous scrutiny, his reputation as an able and honest business leader has been dented, especially when his opponents began digging into the scandal of the Bain Capital, which had netted him $473 million.
Any president or presidential candidate may promise the sky to the public, but if they don't have the backing of the legislature, they cannot deliver on their promises. That, in itself, is a built-in defense mechanism. In case of failure, blame the Congress. There is a plethora of issues in this presidential campaign that each camp will dissect to discredit its opponents.
Now, enter Paul Ryan, a youthful and dynamic Republican vice presidential candidate on a crusade to dismantle the Obama health care plan. Initially, the Romney and Ryan healthcare plans looked different from each other and even sounded contradictory. The two candidates quickly have been reconciling their differences, because healthcare will become — or, already has become — one of the hottest campaign issues.
Foreign policy is hardly mentioned in the campaign debates, because the assumption is that the US can and will resolve those issues at the butt of the gun. Yet defense remains a major issue, as the Obama administration tries to wind down the foreign wars and cut out unnecessary spending.
The US is not only a super power but a super-super power that can out-gun any potential adversary with its stockpile of state-ofthe- art weaponry. Yet, security and the strong posture of America have become euphemisms for fueling the military-industrial complex, something President Dwight Eisenhower had warned against in the waning days of his administration.
Americans vote with their pocketbooks, except some ideological zealots in both camps. If the economy shows some signs of improvement in the remaining days of the campaign, that will favor the incumbent administration. If it deteriorates, citizens will look for change, for saviors, regardless of the outcome of their choice. Interest groups have their own agendas to pursue in this election year. Leniency advocated by the Obama administration with regards to the 11 million illegal aliens here will certainly have a positive impact in the Hispanic community. On the other hand, leniency towards Cuba's new ruler may jeopardize the Florida vote, a key battleground in this campaign. Therefore, the administration has to calibrate its policy to the tune of the public sentiment to assure a second term for President Obama.
The Jewish vote is crucial for any candidate; wooing the Israeli lobby is not enough — Benjamin Netenyahu will not settle for anything less than complete surrender. The two-state solution for the Palestinian issue advocated by President Obama did not jibe well with the friends of Israel. Despite his solid commitment to Israel's security, Mr. Obama may end up receiving a cold shoulder from his Jewish constituency.
On the other hand, the Republican hopeful offered the maximum, by visiting Israel and making an outright play for the Jewish vote. He declared Jerusalem as Israel's capital, pre-empting the traditional US policy of recognizing Tel Aviv as the capital. That would bias any future settlement of the conflict, as Palestinians have been vying for East Jerusalem to become their own capital. Considering the Arab world is in enough turmoil for any retaliation, Mr. Romney threw another incendiary barb, comparing unfavorably the accomplishment of the Palestinians versus the Israelis.
He suggested that the Palestinians have not prospered as well as Israelis because of cultural differences, i.e., inferiority, neglecting to mention a chokehold on them by the Israeli government, while praising the thriving Israeli economy, again neglecting to mention that US taxpayers are pouring money into its economy. That laughable statement drew winces even from the Israeli hosts, not to mention riled up Palestinians, who justifiably called Romney a racist.
Since every ethnic or interest group is guided by its own interest, Armenians are also entitled to the same rights. For us at issue are the Genocide, the US assistance to Armenia and the thorny problem of the Karabagh (Artsakh) conflict.
Thus far, neither camp has addressed those issues and time is running out. Republican vice presidential-hopeful Rep. Paul Ryan is on record as having co-sponsored the latest House Resolution acknowledging the Armenian Genocide. But that does not mean too much, since President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden have been vocally supportive of the Genocide issue until their election.
Since their election, they have been dancing around the Gword, as they have become captives of the political system. In all fairness, we need to be mindful that President Obama came closest in defining the Armenian Genocide and he dared to remind Turks to come to terms with their grizzly history, in a speech delivered in Ankara, at the Turkish parliament. Yet that does not match his official written commitment made before his election. Once elected, even the most moralistic candidate seems to compromise his or her moral compass for political expediency.
However, Armenians have learned the convoluted course of political machinations and will never give up on this critical issue. We are reminded of the French precedent, when the parliament had almost criminalized the denial of the Armenian Genocide similar to the Gayssot Law, which has criminalized the denial of the Jewish Shoah. Yet, despite then-President Nicolas Sarkozy's passionate speech at an Armenian rally, he let the time elapse and failed to sign the resolution, allowing the opponents of the resolution to muster enough votes to claim the resolution unconstitutional.
The new president, Francois Hollande, has made the same pledge, but a recent interview by his foreign minister casts some doubt on his commitment; indeed, in an interview conducted by the French weekly l'Express, Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius was asked how the president is will make good on his pledge to pass the Genocide resolution without offending Ankara, when France needs Turkey's support on its Syrian policy. The minister answered in an equivocal fashion: "We are seeking ways to reconcile the two issues." If we have learned enough history we can safely assume that is also another betrayal in the making.
Coming back to the US elections, neither camp yet has addressed the Armenian concerns. That does not allow the Armenian voters to take a stand.
In President Obama's case, any pledge is worth less, since he could — and he still can — deliver on his pledge while in office. Mitt Romney can sway some Armenian votes if he comes up with a lastminute positive statement.
Contrary to our beliefs and our campaigns, not all Armenians take the Genocide issue seriously in voting.
Currently, there is a vicious campaign against President Obama, with racial overtones, and many Armenians are shamefully taken in; the president's skin color and his advocacy for the middle class seem to have alienated those Armenians.
At this time, there is no decision for Armenians — we are waiting for Godot.

Q: Padding next to divs, like cellspacing of table I want to do the following:
http://s8.postimage.org/k82svi22r/example.gif
with only divs, css. Its ok to float left the cells, but Im stuck with spacings. I tried to use borders, but then divs next to each other became 2 lines. Or the color of title overleaps the border... I hope theres an easy way to do this!

A: There is an easy way, a table. A calendar is a table of tabular data, so it's fine to use one!

A: Try this (this is a draft)


Not everyone will want to start with the living tree; felling, milling, drying and then turning it into useful items, from fences to furniture, or use the scraps to make kitchen utensils and of course firewood. The great thing is that you can if you want to.
It all takes quite a bit of time and it is best to spend some time with an experienced arborist or lumberjack before you go mad with that chain saw you borrowed.
Trees have a habit of taking off in an alarming direction if you don't get it right. Having said that there is a great deal of satisfaction obtained when the tree lands exactly where you aimed without taking out the fence or your neighbours house.
My advice is to seek professional help when trying to take down a tree close to neighbours, always check they have insurance to pay for any mistakes they might make, the weight of a tree and the playful help of a breeze can make even the most simple job an alarming one.
A good arborist or lumberjack can do in hours what it might take you weeks to do. Always make safety your number one priority, there is no going back once that first cut is made.
Safety equipment is a must, chaps, helmet and ear muffs a minimum.
The sound quality on the video is not great, this is basically what it is about. The first thing you should notice is the safety gear, helmet, ear muffs, chaps and gloves. Also when sawing through the full round of the log I used a trailer tie down straps to hold it together once the cut had been completed. This, along with wedges prevented the half log from rolling back on me.
In this operation I was using the Granberg mini-mill with a Husqvarna chainsaw with a 24in bar and ripping chain. I prefer the ripping chain, it is easy to get and no more expensive than standard chain.
Firstly I found the centre of the log and secured the board with rail attached. Next step was to cut the entire length of the log, approx 3 metres. This cut extended beyond half way through the log. Next was to roll the log to position it for the second cut, locate the board and rail in position, secure the log with wedges and start the second cut.
Once part way through the tie down strap is attached where I had already done the second cut, then I could continue to cut through the rest of the log. On completion the wedges are removed and the tie down strap.
This left two halves on their rounded edge down, perfect. Next square the outside edges, then cut the half log down the centre into quarters. These now have three flat pretty square edges and a ready for the Alaskan mill. The Alaskan mill allows easier setting of board thickness.
One drawback of this system is it is quite time consuming and there is a lot of waste with each cut, the chainsaw taking a quarter inch with each cut. Lots of sawdust for composting or mulch so nothing truly wasted.
I found the Granberg mini-mill a great companion for the Alaskan mill. For more information on these items visit Granberg.

The Cigar Box Guitar Manifesto | The How-To Repository for the Cigar Box Guitar Movement!
We are makers of music. We build cigar box guitars and other unique hand-made instruments.
We are the members of the cigar box guitar revolution. We build playable musical instruments out of things that were never meant to make music. We build cigar box guitars, cigar box ukuleles, canjos, cookie tin banjos, stick dulcimers and much more.
The instruments we build are real. We find joy in building them, and we are proud of what we make.
The cigar box guitar holds a primary place in our craft, but it is just one of many instruments we create. Our creations range from the simplest one-string diddleybows to the most complex and convoluted contraptions imaginable. We respect and draw upon centuries of musical instrument traditions, but we are not limited by them. We are not afraid of making it up as we go. We know that sometimes not knowing how things are supposed to be done allows you to things that have never been done before.
We come from all walks of life, and from all over the world.
Our backgrounds, cultures and countries are wide and varied, but we are united in the joy of building musical instruments and making music. We are a part of the larger Maker community, and we share many of the same goals – but we are a distinct movement unto ourselves.
We build our instruments for many different reasons and in many different ways.
We believe music comes up from the roots, not down from an ivory tower. We know you don't need years of training before you can make a fun, playable musical instrument. You don't need a fully-equipped workshop, or the best tools. We never forget that the first ancestor of the guitar was a vine stretched over a hollow log.
We are a blend of builders and musicians, artisans and artists.
Some of us only play cigar box guitars and instruments built by others; some of us only build instruments for others to play; some of us both build and play. Whether or not we play them ourselves, we are proud of the instruments we create and the music made with them.
We believe that anyone can build their own cigar box guitar or other hand-made instrument.
Anyone who wants to can do what we do. We welcome all who come with an open mind, a willingness to learn and experiment. We value each new perspective and creative viewpoint. Together as a community and as a movement, we are bringing the making of music and musical instruments back to the people, and back to their roots.
We are part of the cigar box guitar revolution, and we are here to stay.
We are the alternative to the shiny, soulless factory-made guitar. We are the answer for the musician looking for a new sound, a new look, a way to get back to the basics, back to the roots of music. We are the new pastime for the creative woman or man looking for a meaningful and rewarding way to put their skills to use. We are diverse, we are creative, we are proud, and we are here to stay.
