Solvitur ambulando es una frase en latín que significa textualmente "se soluciona caminando" y se usa para referirse a un problema que se resuelve con un experimento práctico. A menudo se atribuye a Agustín de Hipona.

En español se utiliza coloquialmente la frase el movimiento se demuestra andando con el mismo sentido, y se puede encontrar en textos relacionados con las matemáticas o con la física.

Se dice que Diógenes de Sinope, también conocido como "Diógenes el cínico", respondió a las paradojas de Zenón sobre la irrealidad del movimiento al levantarse y alejarse caminando.

Citas
La frase aparece al principio del relato de Lewis Carroll titulado "Lo que la tortuga le dijo a Aquiles", donde Aquiles la usa para acentuar que, efectivamente, logró superar a la tortuga en su carrera para probar empíricamente una de las paradojas de Zenón sobre el movimiento. Este pasaje también aparece en el libro de Douglas Hofstadter Gödel, Escher, Bach: un Eterno y Grácil Bucle (1979).

En Clouds of Witness (1926) de Dorothy L. Sayers, durante el juicio del duque de Denver ante la Cámara de los Lores, el Lord High Steward sugiere (entre risas) que solvitur ambulando para determinar si el difunto se arrastró por sí mismo o fue arrastrado a otra ubicación, ya que se trataba de una cuestión de disputa entre la fiscalía y la defensa.

La frase también se cita en Walking (1861) de Henry David Thoreau y en The Songlines (1986) de Bruce Chatwin, con un significado más literal. Chatwin, quien "creía apasionadamente que caminar constituía el remedio soberano para todos los problemas mentales", lo aprendió de Patrick Leigh Fermor y lo escribió de inmediato en sus notas.

La frase se discute varias veces y con cierta extensión en The Tao of Travel (2011) de Paul Theroux. También aparece en los escritos de Aleister Crowley,  y Oliver Sacks. Es el lema del Royal Air Forces Escaping Society.

Бенджамин Пирс (; 4 апреля 1809 — 6 октября 1880) — американский астроном и математик. Отец американского философа Чарльза С. Пирса (1839—1914). Вычислил пертурбацию планет Урана и Нептуна.

Биография
Пирс стал в 1833 году профессором математики и натурфилософии в университете Гарварда, а в 1842 году — занял должность Перкинсовского профессора астрономии и математики, учрежденная в Гарвардском университете в 1842 году по завещанию Джеймса Перкинса (1761—1822). В 1867 году Пирс руководил работой по измерению побережья Соединённых Штатов.

Вместе с палеонтологом Луи Агассисом, астрономом Бенджамином Гулдом, Александром Бейчем и рядом других ведущих американских ученых входил в неформальное объединение «лаццарони», которые добивались увеличения государственной поддержки науки и были вовлечены в реформы высшего образования.

Пирс отвечал преимущественно за внедрение математики в американских исследовательских учреждениях. Таким образом, он был первым, кто предложил математические курсы на уровне докторанта в Соединённых Штатах. Он был известен своим вкладом в областях аналитической механики и линейной алгебры. Кроме того, своими ранними работами по астрономии он сыграл роль в деле открытия планеты Нептун.

Иностранный член Лондонского королевского общества (1852). В 1863 году Бенджамин Пирс вошёл в число первоначальных членов Национальной академии наук США.

Эпонимы
В честь Пирса назван лунный кратер.

Jorge: How is the Irish startup community today? Do you find it consists of more engineering or business focused founders?
Thomas: I would say it is both. There are good technical universities in Ireland, and the European HQs of US tech giants employ a lot of people with great sales and marketing experience.
Jorge: What was the motivation behind launching SalesClic and what is the longer term vision for the product?
Thomas: We wanted to bring recent advances in data visualization and algorithmic modeling to B2B sales management. Long-term, we would like SalesClic to let sales reps and managers optimize the risk/return profile of their sales pipelines just like asset managers optimize the risk/return profile of their financial portfolios.
Jorge: What does Salesclic do and how can sales teams get the most value from using it?
This helps sales teams increase CRM data quality and sales performance. Just identifying the priority opportunities usually reduces sales cycle length significantly.
Jorge: How do you see CRM changing in the coming years?
Jorge: How do you see profession of "selling" evolving moving forward? Do you think we will continue to move towards an inside sales model or will we see mobile or other technologies make outside sales more efficient?
Thomas: Inside sales is here to stay. The call > demo > trial model is so efficient when done right! I think mid-term evolutions will focus on perfecting that model.
Jorge: What are 3 tips you would give a b2b founder when just launching their new startup?
1. Start selling as soon as possible. You should even start earlier than your Minimum Viable Product, by selling the corresponding features as a manual service.
2. Don't take on fixed costs (like office space) before you have a few paying clients.
3. Don't rely on partnerships. Partners will come to you when they see you are successful. Until then, it's just you and your market opportunity.
Jorge: What is your professional background and when did you fall in love with sales?
Thomas: I was an M&A banker for eight years. Bankers do some selling of their own but it was mainly working with clients that I realized the difference that an efficient sales process could make for a company and its shareholders.
Thomas: Discovering client needs and finding the right fit between these and your offering.
Jorge: Anything else that you'd like to share with our readers regarding yourself, Irish startups, or SalesClic?
Thomas: Make sure you have given careful thought to your personal situation and preferences before starting your own company. But if the circumstances are right it is a fantastic learning experience!

Glossary of Ancestry Terms
Learn the Lingo of DNA Science
DNA science can seem complicated, but it gets considerably simpler when you understand the language! For your convenience, here are explanations for some of the most important jargon you're likely to run across during DNA testing for ancestry. So get your "science geek" on and learn what it all means.
A - B - C - D - E - F - G - L - M - P - R - S - X - Y
Accreditation — The process in which a business is reviewed to make sure it is functioning at a level set by respected industry or state organizations. A business may seek and receive accreditation from several accrediting bodies.
Ancestry Informative Markers (AIMs) — Genetic mutations that exhibit substantially different frequencies between different populations. A set of many AIMs can be used to estimate the proportion of ancestry of an individual derived from each population.
Alleles — Different versions of the same gene. Alleles are the 'genetic switches' that determine characteristics such as eye color, hair color and height. The chromosomes in a pair carry the same gene in the same places but there may be different versions of the same gene. For any gene, a person may have any combination of two possible alleles - for example they may have two alleles for brown eye color, or one brown one and one blue one.
Ancestral — Something inherited from a person's ancestors. In genetics, ancestral refers to an inherited characteristic, such as physical appearance as well as certain physical and mental health conditions. Ancestral DNA can be used to find out about a person's genetic heritage.
Ancestor/Ancestry — A person from whom another is directly descended, typically someone more distant than a grandparent. Your ancestry collectively describes your ancestors.
Autosomal DNA — The DNA found in the autosomes: the 22 chromosomes that do not determine sex. The autosomes carry 90% of your DNA and can be inherited from any of your thousands of ancestors through the ages.
Base Pair — A chemical thread in the DNA, formed by a pair of nitrogenous or base chemicals, which makes up the rungs on the DNA ladder. Each strand of DNA is made up four different base chemicals: adenosine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) and guanine (T). These chemicals always pair in the same way: A always pairs with T, and C always pairs with T. Human DNA has about 3 billion bases.
Biogeographical Ancestry — We are all tapestries of multiple populations who migrated around the world at various times and passed their DNA onto us. Whereas typical ancestry tests report the proportion of similarity with some modern-day populations, biogeographical analyses recognize that populations are social constructs—themselves highly mixed—and instead reports the geographical origins of the DNA tapestry.
Buccal Swab — A swab taken from the cheek by rubbing the inside of the mouth with a large cotton bud to collect loose cells. Buccal swabbing is a common method of collecting DNA cells for analysis.
Chromosome — A thread-like structure made up of nucleic acids and protein, which is found in the nucleus of animal or plant cells and that carries the genes. There are 23 pairs of chromosomes in each cell of the human body. Chromosomes are inherited from the parent - 23 from the mother and 23 from the father. The 23rd chromosome determines sex - XX for females and XY for males.
Diversity of REcent and Ancient huMan (DREAM) — A dedicated microarray designed by Dr. Eran Elhaik to improve ancestral inferences compared with competing microarrays. DREAM is enriched with Ancestry informative markers (AIMs) collected from populations all over the world. The academic paper describing DREAM is available here.
DNA — A long twisted 'helix' molecule made of deoxyribonucleic acid that holds the body's unique genetic code. It is made up of four proteins: adenosine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) and guanine (T), which form base pairs and which are the basic building blocks of the DNA. The order of these base pairs forms the instructions in the genome. DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell as well as its mitochondria (mtDNA). The nuclear DNA is composed of information inherited from both parents, while the mtDNA in male and female humans is inherited solely from the mother. DNA can be used to determine parentage, as well as a wide range of other information. mtDNA is used to look at the maternal bloodline.
Ethnicity — An ethnic group is a group that has shared characteristics such as culture, language, religion and traditions, and sees itself or is seen by others as a distinct community. It is not necessarily genetic and definitions of what is a distinct ethnicity may vary from place to place.
Family History — The study of how your ancestors lived. The term 'family history' is often used interchangeably with 'genealogy' but is a much broader exploration of your ancestors' lives. It encompasses genealogy in that you need to study your ancestral lineage but also considers social history, looking at the area in which your ancestors lived, the jobs they did, what their homes were like and other factors that may have affected their life.
Gene — A gene is the basic unit of information—formed of a distinct sequence of DNA—that determines what characteristics every living creature has. Genes are found on the chromosomes and are inherited from both parents.
Gene Pool — Also referred to as Ancestral Origin, is the collective set of genetic information within a distinct population which does not breed with others from outside of the group. So far, 36 human gene pools around the world have been identified, with each human population made up of a mixture of these gene pools.
Genealogy — The study of a person's family tree or line of descent. Genealogy uses the written record (birth, marriage, tax and death records), stories passed down through families and increasingly genetic testing.
Genetic Markers — Points of variation in DNA that scientists use to decode and interpret information about the source of the DNA. Genetic markers are 'bookmarks', which allow scientists to quickly find out about the genetic characteristics associated with the marker's location (locus) on the DNA strand.
Genetic Mutation — A permanent change in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene. Mutations can range in size from a single DNA base to a large segment of a chromosome. Genetic mutations can be inherited from a parent or acquired during a person's lifetime. Some genetic changes are very rare while others are common. Genetic changes that occur in more than 1 percent of the population are called polymorphisms. They are common enough to be considered a normal variation in the DNA. Polymorphisms are responsible for many normal differences between people such as eye color, hair color, and blood type.
Genome — An individual's genetic blueprint: the complete set of genetic instructions needed to make that individual. Every cell with a nucleus contains a complete copy of the genome.
Locus (Loci, pl.) — The specific position of a gene or DNA sequence on a chromosome. Scientists use maps to describe the location and the genetic traits that are determined at those points.
Maternal Line — The lineage that follows your female ancestry through your mother. It traces your mother, your grandmother, great grandmother and so on, and—unless you are male—consists entirely of females.
Mitochondria — A specialized area found within a cell that produces the energy the cell needs to function.
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) — The DNA contained within the mitochondria of cells. The mitochondria are the 'power stations' of the cells and produce the energy. Mitochondrial DNA has its own genome distinct from the DNA found in the nucleus. mtDNA in both men and women is inherited from the mother, and is useful for investigating the maternal lineage of a family.
Mutation — See Genetic Mutation
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) — A way of increasing the rate of DNA replication so that unlimited copies can be made from the original DNA sample. It uses DNA polymerase, the enzyme that facilitates DNA replication in nature. It is used in laboratories to multiply the amount of DNA available in a sample for analysis.
Short Tandem Repeat (STR) — A pattern in which several base pairs are repeated in sequences along a strand of DNA. Each person's genes display unique patterns that are then used to catalog differences in DNA profiles.
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP - pronounced 'snips') — The most common type of genetic variation among people. Each SNP represents a difference in a single DNA building block or nucleotide. SNPs occur normally throughout a person's DNA and there are roughly 10 million SNPs in the human genome. Most commonly, these variations are found in the DNA between genes.
X-SV Test — A test that looks at the mitochrondrial DNA (mtDNA) in order to determine whether or not two or more people could be related through the maternal line.
Y-STR Test — A test that looks at the STRs on the Y chromosome in order to determine whether or not two males could be related through paternal bloodlines.
Y-Chromosomal DNA — The DNA that only occurs on the Y chromosome. It is passed down from father to son through the generations and is only inherited by males.

Video: Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled is a delight
Video by Matt S.
Crash Team Racing is an absolute delight. It's clearly not easy to do a really great kart racer, and Mario Kart hasn't had real competition for quite a while now, but Crash here changes all that. Excellent tracks, brilliant characters, wonderful design... this game has it all.
In this video I take a look at what I like so much about Crash Team Racing, and why it's such a winner.

I am amazed at the speed with which antisemitic and lunatic conspiracy theorists can fabricate source material and references to back their theory that Israel was behind London terrorist attack. The first half of it reads like a (badly written) Bond novel, however the references at the end and much of Indymedia would treat it as undeniable truth.
The facts never were all that relevant. AP has a lot of explaining to do.
Variations on this stuff have been posted around Indymedia at warp speed. Apparently the conspiracy theorists want to make up for the hopelessly unsuccessful efforts after 9/11 to convince us it was actually Bush and the Jews' fault.
Attentive? Evidently not to reality.
Yes, what's wrong with them indeed.
Doesn't everybody know you're supposed to ignore the evidence that's right in front of you, like the inexplicable lowering of the "terror alert level" or whatever that hogwash is called, this being a month before they knew the G-8 summit was soon approaching, or the "anti-terror exercise" non-coincidentally scheduled for the morning of 7 July that just HAPPENED to feature "simulated" bombings in the same locations as they took place in "ral time", so if anyone was caught beforehand by the city police they could say they were part of the training exercise. Or the fact that the four dead patsies were all cricket-playing girl-chasing non-extremist individuals some with family commitments, one having a baby out of wedlock with another on the way, and another with a baby of his own and a wife. Don't worry about why the two of the "accused suicide bombers" who took a trip to their ancestral home Pakistan left after only two months because they "didn't like the people there" instead of staying for the nine months they originally planned. Don't bother to ask how the "suicide bombers"' identification all managed to survive the explosions, as this obviously planted "evidence" is meant for you to accept at face value. Like the "cache of explosives" they "found" in the rental car that the police conveniently blew up instead of taking in for evidence. Or why they would use bombs with sophisticated timing devices when it's intended to be a "suicide bombing". Or why the website of the "unheard of terrorist group" called the "Secret Organization of Al Qaeda in Europe" that initially claimed responsibility for the bombings tracks back to Maryland in America. Or why it contained obvious factual errors in Koran quotes that no real Muslim would have made, appearing to be a phony "group" to take "responsibility" for MI5's handiwork. Or how Netanyahu was warned in advance. Or how the "official story" has changed drastically in about every important detail since 7 July. You're just not supposed to think about things like that, just keep reading garbage like "Indymediawatch" and believe what your murderous government spoon-feeds you.

Finance & economics | Fama and fortune
Factor-based investing spreads from stocks to bonds
A data boom enables an algorithmic approach to fixed-interest investing
Aug 11th 2018 | BOSTON
COMPARED with equity investing, bond investing can seem stuck in the dark ages. As hedge funds and asset managers use whizzy algorithms to trade shares automatically, bond-fund managers still often call traders by phone. So when new investing strategies do arise, they make an even bigger splash. "Factor" investing is the latest example.
This is the idea, credited to economists Eugene Fama and Kenneth French, that predictable, persistent factors explain long-term asset returns. Their 1992 model for equities used the size of firms and what became known as "value" (the tendency for cheap assets to outperform pricey ones). Later models added factors such as "momentum" (the tendency of prices to keep moving in the same direction). Factor-based analysis has squeezed active managers (since it explains much of their returns) and helped drive the rise of passive investing. Investors can access factors in equities, often called "smart beta", through cheap index-tracking funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) from the likes of BlackRock and State Street Global Advisors.
Messrs Fama and French considered factors in bond returns as early as 1993, though not the same ones as for equities (they reckoned, for instance, that for bonds value had "no obvious meaning"). Federal requirements since 2002 to disclose transaction prices and volumes have enabled closer analyses. A recent paper by researchers at AQR Capital Management, a $226bn hedge fund founded by a student of Mr Fama that specialises in factor investing for equities, looks at four factors for global sovereign bonds and American corporate ones: carry (high-yielding bonds beat low-yielding ones), quality (safer assets have better risk-adjusted returns), value and momentum.
These not only would have provided consistently good returns over the past two decades, but were also largely uncorrelated with factors in equity markets, credit risk for bonds and macroeconomic variables such as inflation. Since active bond-fund managers tend to make excess returns mainly by buying riskier bonds, and a traditional bond index-tracking fund means exposure to the firms and countries that issue the most debt, factors provide a third, distinctive investment option.
AQR's first dedicated fixed-income offering, a fund of American high-yield (that is, junk-rated) bonds, was launched in mid-2016. It outperformed the benchmark index by 2.1 percentage points in its first year, and 2.6 points in its second. Tony Gould of AQR credits not only the factor modelling for its success. He says that the higher cost of trading bonds compared with equities needs to be built into the bond-picking process. The firm has since started two more bond funds. Other such firms that used to focus on equities are looking into bonds, too. Man Numeric, for instance, a quant fund in Boston, wants to apply its expertise in company-level analysis to high-yield bonds.
Among the mass-market offerings are BlackRock's first smart-beta bond fund, launched in 2015. It switched from active management to index-tracking in 2018, and the firm now has several index-tracking bond ETFs that use factors (mostly quality and value). Fidelity Investments launched two bond factor ETFs in March, and Invesco launched eight on July 25th.
Factor investing for bonds is still so new that many investors have not even heard of it. But opportunities to use it are growing because of recent European regulations mandating price and volume disclosure for bonds. Just five years ago a fund manager would have struggled to find enough data for non-American bonds, says Collin Crownover of State Street Global Advisors. Now the firm is applying quality- and value-factor analysis to corporate bonds in euros and sterling. The way index-trackers and smart-beta approaches laid waste to stock-pickers suggests that managers of active bond funds should be quaking.
Clarification (August 10th 2018): This article was amended to reflect the fact that factors in bonds provide consistent returns, but not necessarily ones correlated with overall bond-market returns.

Q: window.open not passing query strings in url to backend I'm working on a node app with express that allows users to send customized emails using html templates and nodemailer. The most basic functionality is allowing them to enter the recipient's name, email and which email template to use. Everything is working fine except for the preview button. I am just getting the input values from the DOM and passing those into query strings in the window.open URL like this -
preview.addEventListener('click', () => {
    const select_email = document.getElementById('select-email').value;
    const name = document.getElementById('name').value.trim();
    const recipient = document.getElementById('recipient').value.trim();
    const queryStrings = { name, recipient, select_email };
    let url = `${location.host}/email-preview?`;

    for (const string in queryStrings) {
      if (string === 'select_email') {
          url += `${encodeURIComponent(string)}=${encodeURIComponent(queryStrings[string])}`;
      } else {
          url += `${encodeURIComponent(string)}=${encodeURIComponent(queryStrings[string])}&`;
      }
    }

    window.open(url, '_blank')
});

I have tested that this works correctly and produces a URL like this example -
localhost:5000/email-preview?name=John&recipient=exampleemail%40gmail.com&select_email=welcome-email
The window opens on click as expected, but the query strings are not being passed to the express route on the initial page load. I tried to view the network tab, but when I open dev tools it re-routes me to about:blank so there is obviously something I am missing here.
When the new window loads initially, there is nothing displayed on the page. If I refresh the page, nothing happens. However, if I click the URL bar and hit enter, the query strings reach my express get route and the page loads fine.
Here is my express route -
app.get('/email-preview', (req, res) => {
    const name = req.query.name;
    const selectedEmail = req.query.select_email;
    const email = req.query.recipient;
    const generatedEmail = selectEmail(name, email, selectedEmail);

    res.send(generatedEmail.output);
});

selectEmail is in a separate module and it returns the generated HTML. Again, everything is working fine when I manually type in the same URL that is being opened through window.open.
I have been searching for a solution to this and I can't find any answers to this specific problem. Any insight would be much appreciated

A:
localhost:5000/email-preview?name=John&recipient=exampleemail%40gmail.com&select_email=welcome-email

That's not a proper URL, you're missing the initial http:// scheme. (Chrome typically hides the scheme part of a URL from you in the address bar to be "helpful", but you do need it. When you press Enter in the address bar the browser may try to help by correcting a broken URL.)
You can get the scheme of the current page from location.protocol, but it would probably be easier to use a root-relative URL so you don't have to worry about the scheme or host/port:
let url = '/email-preview?';

Q: It duplicates content when transferring it via java socket I have written a client-socket "system" that is supposed to upload a file.
Although, when I attempt to upload, content duplicates.
I'm pretty sure that it is because the program doesn't recognise the eof.

A: The problem was that I didn't check if the size were 0 on the client side.

A: That try catch should NOT be in the for loop !!!! It only needs single code use by wrapping. Also use counting metering conventionally the number of bytes with a conventional numeric "for" loop, Not for(byte b : buffer). Note: byte is not strictly numeric, it will only reach to 255 in the for counter! It depends the quantity bytes required iterated over and should be as many as are packaged to it over the connection.
In the read you need to obtain the number of bytes sent andmark that into the write length to take from the array, so it would be better to instantiate the array based on the number of bytes or maximum bytes the the client sender has sent or negotiated as the maximum allowed (see the api docs for the stream.
NB ObjectStream does not apply , it's for RMI)
Of counting into the byte[] buffer array, you should remove it from the method and put it as a global. In the method , instantiate a new "buffer" array on the global variable each iteration of the loop according to the number of bytes read as it's new length.
The code does not appear to be particularly safe or debugable. You might try carefully constructing it starting again from scratch.

Paul Haggis' Name Scrubbed From Press Materials for Cannes Movie '5B'
Getty Images; iStock
Attendees at a screening were surprised to see the credits include the 66-year-old Oscar-winning writer-director — accused last January of rape and sexual misconduct, which he denied — as a co-director and producer of the AIDS documentary.
Attendees at a May 16 screening of 5B at the Cannes Film Festival got a surprise at the end of the movie: Paul Haggis' name on the credits.
None of the press materials hinted at the fact that the 66-year-old Oscar-winning Crash writer-director — accused last January of rape and sexual misconduct, which he denied — had co-directed and produced the AIDS documentary with Dan Krauss.
A spokesperson for the festival says, "Paul Haggis' name wasn't credited in the production notes that were given to us by the production."
As for why the 5B team expunged Haggis from production notes, an insider says: "There were conversations, and the mindset was that no one wanted the film's message to be overshadowed by the scandal surrounding one person."
Haggis has been working on the doc — originally titled Ward 5B, after the section of the San Francisco hospital that was on the front lines of the early AIDS epidemic — for years.
The film, which drew supporters at Cannes like Julianne Moore and Priyanka Chopra, got raves.

All hands seemed to enjoy the voting-style poll of last Monday's QOTD, so let's try it again. And, yes, if you flake on your choice you can change your selection.
Trying to determine The Next Big Thing in the collector car world is akin to fortune-telling tomorrow's lottery numbers. Still, it doesn't stop gearheads from pontificating on which vehicle will be the next to skyrocket in value. We have four choices for you today.
Without doubt, cars like the Fox-body Mustang and A80 Supra have already taken off into the stratosphere, so we won't mention those. That ship has already sailed.
That's my pick, but I'll advance three more. Fox Mustangs are now trading for stupid money, so I believe the halo effect will cause the fabulous Lincoln Mark VII to experience a bump in value as well. Your author deeply regrets selling his 1989 during an ill-advised fleet reduction program.
For the same "halo" reason, Si versions of the fifth-gen Civic are likely to become more valuable, thanks to the money its distant ITR cousin is pulling. Rarity of examples in good nick plays a factor here, since most were either hacked up, hooned to death, or consumed by rust. Weirdo high-mpg VX models might have some appeal, too.
In keeping with the thought that buzz of a new model creates demand for old ones (*ahem Supra ahem*), I think the OJ-style Ford Bronco will soon start commanding as much or more money as the original version from the early '70s. Check out that "Nite" trim in the hero image up top and tell me that's not a tasty vehicle.
And, it goes without saying, buying a car solely to make money on it is a terrible idea. We should buy them to drive, not to hermetically seal. Which of these four is your pick for future Barrett-Jackson stardom?

PlayStation 3 is the 7th generation console from Sony. It was released on November 17th, 2006 in North America and March 23rd, 2007 in Europe. PS3 came about a year later than its biggest rival – Xbox 360 from Microsoft – so it didn't manage to conquer the market as PlayStation 2 had done a couple of years earlier. Also, complicated architecture of the console – based on the Cell CPU which became a pain in the neck for game developers – made it harder to achieve great sales results. PlayStation 3 was succeeded by PlayStation 4 in 2013.

Since birth, the woman was connected to Aiden, an incorporeal creature that ventured into our world. The game is considered an "interactive drama" as it focuses mostly on storytelling, moral choices, and the cinematic experience. The developers from Quantic Dream took care to deliver high-quality, photorealistic graphics, sound effects, and animations created using the motion capture technology.
Grand Theft Auto Online (PS3)
A free expansion for the bestselling action game Grand Theft Auto V developed by Rockstar North. The expansion introduces multiplayer mode based on the Internet network. The players can create their own avatars and together with friends explore the city of Los Santos. Up to 16 players can participate in the game simultaneously. The developers prepared many activities for them. In addition to typical online modes (like deathmatch), the players can complete missions in cooperation mode and participate in such activities as street racing, golf or even parachuting. The virtual money earned during the game allows the players to change the looks of their character, buy weapons, vehicles and apartments.


It is all over the news about the fires; the Carr Fire has Hwy 299 closed and the Mendocino Complex has Hwy 20 closed; so it would be very hard to reach the Trinity River, plus, most of the upper part of the river is so smoky that you would have trouble finding your way to the river. The fires are also affecting the river flows because of the power plants having to reduce power production or having to go off line. The upper river has experienced water releases of 1,200cfs all the way down to 750cfs. This fluctuation has caused an inundation of the low areas around the lake because of the water diversion system is not working properly due to the fires. The Lewiston area has been evacuated as are many of the areas around the Redding area. This affects the Sacramento River as well. I am sorry to say that the fires are devastating northern California in more than just fishing.
Because of the fires, much of the flow and lake levels are not available for this report. The good part is that with the fluctuation of the water releases it could bring in part of the fall run Chinook. Remember I said could possibly bring them into the river NOT for sure.
The fires could possibly cool the upper river down some, but as of today, that has not happened.
Fishing: Lewiston Dam is now releasing summer flows of 779cfs., and because of the evacuations and Carr Fire, there is practically no fishing in the upper section of the river. Down river to Junction City the smoke has just about caused everyone to stay inside out of the smoke. Del Loma is faring much better, and Willow Creek the smoke is just a haze, but the river temperatures are in the 70's so the fish are holding up for right now. With the water flow fluctuation, hopefully, the water temperatures will drop and the fall run Chinook will start their migration up the river.
Mid-Klamath: Iron Gate Dam is releasing summer flows of 974cfs. Here again, we have problems from the fires. Iron Gate has to release more water for power production and that will change things in the upper part of the Klamath. Right now the Mid –Klamath is doing fine because there is very little smoke, but again, we have high water temperatures. We have to realize that we are into the midsummer weather and that usually means HOT sunny weather. Don't forget there are some river closures for Native American Ceremonies.
Lake Conditions: Whiskeytown is N/A% of capacity (an increase of 0%) with inflows of N/A cfs and releasing N/A cfs into Clear Creek and on to Keswick. Shasta is N/A% (a decrease of 0% and 0ft) with inflows of N/A cfs and releasing N/A cfs, Keswick is N/A% of capacity (an increase of 0%) with inflows of N/Acfs and releasing N/Acfs; Oroville Lake is 55% capacity (a decrease of 3% & minus 9ft), inflow is 2,324cfs and releases are 6,936cfs; Folsom Lake is 66% of capacity (minus 6% & minus 6ft.) inflows are 1,752cfs and releases are 5,111cfs.
Trinity Lake: the Lake is N/Aft below the over flow (a decrease of 0ft) and N/A% of capacity (02% decrease) Inflow to Trinity Lake is N/A5cfs and Trinity Dam is releasing N/Acfs to Lewiston Lake with N/Acfs going to Whiskeytown Lake and on to Keswick Power Plant, which is releasing N/Acfs into the Sacramento River.
Trinity River flows and conditions: Lewiston Dam releases are 779cfs with water temps of 52 degrees and air at 62 at 9:00am today, Monday. Limekiln Gulch is 5.4ft at 815cfs, with water temps of 52 degrees. Douglas City is 6.9ft at 793cfs, water temps of 53.4 degrees and air is 63. Junction City is 2.4ft at 755cfs. Helena is 9.7ft at 789cfs with water temps of 58.8. Cedar Flat (Burnt Ranch) is 2.5ft at 862cfs. Willow Creek is estimated at 923cfs and air is 70 with water at 65. Hoopa is 12.4ft at 1,297cfs with water temps of 71.4. Flows at the mouth of the Trinity River at Klamath River are estimated to be 2,825cfs. Salmon usually cannot do well in water temperatures over 72 degrees.
Klamath: Iron Gate Dam releases are 974cfs. Seiad Valley is 1.9ft at 1,118cfs. Happy Camp is estimated at 1,276cfs, Salmon River is 1.7ft at 252cfs, Somes Bar is estimated at 1,276cfs and Orleans is 2.8ft. at 1,528cfs and the Klamath River at Terwer Creek is 8.2ft at 2,766cfs, with water temperatures of 72.2 degrees. Flows at Dr. Fine Bridge are 4.9ft at 333cfs.
The low temperature in the Valley last week was 56 but ran in the low 60s a high of 104, with 0.00in of rain and a season total of 68.45in of rain and a total of 4.15in of snow. Temperatures in the valley next week are expected to run 87/56 degrees with sunshine in the coming week. Expect smoke in the upper river area and haze in the lower river areas.

Sydney Yeshiva camp volunteer Daniel "Gug" Hayman has pleaded guilty to indecent assault by a person of authority on two male complainants and a charge of indecency against a female complaint has been dropped.
Rabbi Eli Feldman told J-Wire that he stands by the statement he made last November in which he said it was clear the Hayman was not a Yeshiva employee but a volunteer.
His full statement from last year: "Mr Daniel Hayman was arrested yesterday on charges of child sexual abuse allegations from more than 25 years ago.
"We're pleased with the progress being made with regards to the cases involving members of the Australian Jewish community. Over the past couple of years we have witnessed justice for so many victims who were abused within Jewish institutions in Victoria. Sadly, this is just the tip of the iceberg. However, we have now achieved another important milestone; the first child sexual abuse-related trial involving the Jewish community outside Victoria.
We commend the courageous complainants and their families for seeking justice. We're pleased for the complainant whose allegation was proved in court. We understand the disappointment for the other two complainants and hope that this outcome won't negatively impact them nor deter other alleged victims from coming forward. We hope that the overall progress made will encourage anyone with information about cases of child sexual abuse or cover-ups within our community to go to the police.
For those who are not yet ready to endure the judicial process, they may wish to consider sharing their experience with the Royal Commission where they will not be subjected to cross examination and other challenges but rather listened to in a dignified and positive manner. As a Royal Commission funded service provider, Tzedek stands ready to assist, support or advise as appropriate.
Despite the mixed messages emanating from some quarters within the Orthodox Rabbinate – whether in Australia or internationally, and whether publicly or privately – there is no prohibition in disclosing cases of child sexual abuse and cover-ups to external authorities, including the police. We commend the individual rabbis and organisations who have spoken out about this matter.
Sydney's Yeshiva Centre should now clarify its position regarding what it knew in relation to the allegations against Mr Hayman and what precisely was his role at the Centre. Importantly, does the Yeshiva Centre stand by its statement that at no time during his volunteer roles at the Centre did Mr Hayman have a responsibility for children? We intend to raise these matters with the Royal Commission.


Houayxai, variously transliterated, is the Laotian port of entry for travellers coming from Chiang Rai, Thailand. We're heading downstream on the Mekong.
A simple ferry crosses the Mekong from Chiang Khong on the Thai side. The immigration office is on the river, and a block uphill is this main street.
Looking the other way. The taller white building, with the satellite dish, is a hotel.
The Wat Jawn Khao looks down on the street. The stairs are flanked by rippling nagas or serpents.
At the bottom of the stairs, the serpents are fed.
So are the monks who come down the long flight.
Nearby drums, protected from the rain.
The path up the back side of the hill is less formal.
From the top of a nearby hill one can see Thailand, the Mekong, and the roofs of Houayxai.
So did French eyes 50 years ago, when they were stationed at Fort Carnot, atop the hill.
Sharp eyes may detect the word "honneur" near the top.


The people of Tamil Naidu have seen considerable improvement in literacy and social development.
Many organisations are putting pressure on both the state and central government to curtail all the loopholes inside the Right to Education Act implemented in 2010.
What is it going to take to make the rest of the nation to put pressure on the administration system to ask for better quality education?

Illegals Raiding U.S. Treasury
By James R. Edwards, Jr. on September 5, 2011
A new report by the U.S. Treasury Department's Inspector General has found that illegal aliens collected $4.2 billion in 2010 in a refundable tax credit.
Important findings from the report include:
The $4.2 billion that illegals claimed under the child tax credit last year is four times higher than the amount in 2005.
Some 2.3 million filers in 2010 claimed the refundable child tax credit using an individual taxpayer identification number, or ITIN.
Seventy-two percent of tax returns filed using ITINs sought the child tax credit. That compares with 14 percent of non-ITIN tax filers claiming the same tax credit.
Treasury auditors note that the ITIN frequently serves as a vehicle for tax fraud.
Refundable tax credits pose an even more severe risk to Americans and the republic than mere tax credits. Refundable credits actually give money from the treasury to credit claimants whose tax liability, due to relatively low income, doesn't amount to enough to have paid more in taxes than they claim in deductions and credits. That is, these people make money off the government come tax time. In the case of the child credit, the IG says the amount claimed per return averaged $1,800.
The findings of this IG's report should not surprise anyone. Naturally, when government tax programs allow people to collect more money from the treasury than they pay in taxes, this incentivizes people to exploit such payoff schemes. Further, refundable tax credits incentivize criminal "creativity" – fraud and abuse.
The insult added to injury comes when illegal aliens run roughshod over the U.S. tax system to make ill-gotten gains. Illegals are really the only ones who need an ITIN to conduct their federal tax dealings because they lack a Social Security number. Yet, the Internal Revenue Service doesn't bother to verify a filer's immigration status (something routinely done for more than 70 means-tested benefit programs).
Illegal immigrants aren't discovering ITINs and refundable tax credits for the first time. After all, the report says, "In a prior report, [the Inspector General] noted that billions of dollars in [child tax credits] and [additional child tax credits] are being provided to ITIN filers without verification of eligibility."
In addition, economic analyst Ed Rubenstein documented the fraud and abuse by illegal aliens for the Earned Income Tax Credit. The EITC is also refundable, paying many claimants a net gain. EITC too is subjected to exploitation by illegals, Rubenstein reported.
The obvious first step is for the IRS to begin immediately to use the SAVE system to verify eligibility for taxpayer benefits available through the tax code. The child tax credit is generally a positive thing, benefiting American families and helping to promote sound family formation. But it should be limited to those legitimately residing in the United States.

Q: In the below code function is returning value of variable a, how is it possible, please explain In the below code function myprint is returning value of variable a, how is it possible, please explain
class Test {
    def myprint(){
        def a = "my"
        }
        }
        def test1 = new Test()
        log.info test1.myprint()

A: You're encountering a groovy method without return statement.
Indeed, as stated in Groovy Goodness, as an example, the return statement is not mandatory to end a Groovy method : the result of the last executed instruction is used asmethod return value.
As a consequence, writing
def myMethod() {
    def a = "value"
}
println myMethod()

will output
value

Because Groovy interpreter will consider def a = "value" as last instruction to be method return value.
However, for clarity reasons, and contrary to groovy commitee, I will suggest you not to use that feature, as it make code a little less readable.
Bonus point : this feature really goes well with closures : when calling [1,2,3].collect { it*2} will return [2, 4, 6] which is really nice.

How to Stop Windows From Automatically Connecting to a Wi-Fi Network
Chris Hoffman @chrisbhoffman
November 9, 2017, 11:23am EDT
Windows automatically connects to Wi-Fi networks you've previously connected to. On Windows 10, you can tell Windows not to automatically connect to certain networks. Windows will remember the passphrase and other connection details, but will only connect when you manually initiate a connection.
This is useful for public Wi-Fi networks that you don't always want to connect to automatically—especially if they require a sign in or have slow internet.
On Windows 10
RELATED: How to Delete a Saved Wi-Fi Network on Windows 10
To stop Windows from automatically, connecting to a Wi-Fi network in the future, you can simply choose this option while connecting to a network.
When you select a network in the Wi-Fi popup menu, uncheck the "Connect automatically" box before you click the "Connect" button.
If you're not near the network at the moment, you won't see the network in the Wi-Fi panel. However, you can still edit the saved Wi-Fi network profile on your system to modify this setting.
To do so, head to Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi. Click the "Manage known networks" link.
Select the network you want to edit in the list and click "Properties". You can use the search box or filter options to find the precise network you're looking for here.
Set the "Connect automatically when in range" option here to "Off". Windows won't automatically connect to the network, but you can manually connect to the network without re-entering its passphrase and other settings.
On Windows 7 and 8
This option isn't available on Windows 7 and 8. If you have a Wi-Fi network's credentials saved on your system, Windows will automatically connect to it. The only way to stop Windows from automatically reconnecting to a saved Wi-Fi network is by telling Windows to "forget" that saved Wi-Fi network completely. This means that you'll have to re-enter the Wi-Fi network's passphrase and other credentials if you ever want to use it in the future.
RELATED: How to Enable User-Specific Wireless Networks in Windows 7
To forget a network in Windows 7, head to Control Panel > View network status and tasks > Manage wireless networks. Select the Wi-Fi network you want to forget and click "Remove".
RELATED: How to "Forget" a Wired (or Wireless) Network in Windows 8.1
On Windows 8, you have to use the netsh command from the Command Prompt to delete a saved Wi-Fi network.
To do so, launch a Command Prompt window and run the following command, replacing "WiFiName" with the name of the saved Wi-Fi network.
netsh wlan delete profile name="WiFiName"
After running this command, your computer will forget the network.

Volume XXIII/1 of History of Universities contains the customary mix of learned articles, book reviews, conference reports, and bibliographical information, which makes this publication an indispensable tool for the historian of higher education. It offers a lively combination of original research and invaluable reference material.
Early Music History is devoted to the study of music from the early Middle Ages to the end of the seventeenth century and includes manuscript studies, textual criticism, iconography, studies of the relationship between words and music, and the relationship between music and society. Articles in volume 23 include: Guillaume de Machaut and his Canonry of Reims 1338-1377; Reading Carnival: The Creation of a Florentine Carnival Song; Schein's Occasional Music and the Social Order in 1620s Leipzig.
This volume covers the years 700-715 A.D., a period that witnessed the last five years of the caliphate of the Umayyad 'Abd al-Malik b. Marwan and the whole of the caliphate of his son al-Walid. In retrospect, this period can be seen to have marked the apogee of Marwanid Umayyad power. It began with the dangerous revolt of the Iraqi tribal leader Ibn al-Ash'ath, which seriously imperilled Marwanid control of Iraq and was countered with considerable difficulty; but this proved to be the last of the obstacles faced by 'Abd al-Malik in the wake of the Second Civil War of 685-693. Thereafter he was able to preside over a strong and dynamic Arab kingdom, with al-Hajjaj b. Yusuf as his powerful governor of Iraq and the East. When 'Abd al-Malik died in 705, the caliphate passed to his son al-Walid, during whose decade of office al-Hajjaj remained at his post and further Arab expansion took place in Central Asia, in Sind, and in the Iberian Peninsula. To many of their contemporaries, the Arabs of that time must have looked like potential world conquerors. The volume ends shortly after the deaths of al-Hajjaj and al-Walid and just two years before the dispatch in 717 of the ill-fated Arab expedition to Constantinople.
Kierkegaard, a poet of ideals and practitioner of the indirect method, also had a direct and polemical side. He revealed this in several writings throughout his career, culminating in The Moment, his attack against the established ecclesiastical order. Kierkegaard was moved to criticize the church by his differences with Bishop Mynster, Primate of the Church of Denmark. Although Mynster saw in Kierkegaard a complement to himself and his outlook, Kierkegaard challenged Mynster to acknowledge the emptying and estheticizing of Christianity that had occurred in modern Christendom. For three years Kierkegaard was silent, waiting. When Mynster died, he was memorialized as "an authentic truth-witness" in the "holy chain of truth-witnesses that stretches through the ages from the days of the apostles." This struck Kierkegaard as blasphemous and inspired him to write a series of articles in Fædrelandet, which he followed with ten numbers of the pamphlet The Moment. This volume includes the articles from Fædrelandet, all numbers of The Moment, and several other late pieces of Kierkegaard's writing.
Like many of the traditional medicines of South Asia, Ayurvedic practice transformed dramatically in the later nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. With Doctoring Tradition, Projit Bihari Mukharji offers a close look at that recasting, upending the widely held yet little-examined belief that it was the result of the introduction of Western anatomical knowledge and cadaveric dissection. Rather, Mukharji reveals, what instigated those changes were a number of small technologies that were introduced in the period by Ayurvedic physicians, men who were simultaneously Victorian gentlemen and members of a particular Bengali caste. The introduction of these devices, including thermometers, watches, and microscopes, Mukharji shows, ultimately led to a dramatic reimagining of the body. By the 1930s, there emerged a new Ayurvedic body that was marked as distinct from a biomedical body. Despite the protestations of difference, this new Ayurvedic body was largely compatible with it. The more irreconcilable elements of the old Ayurvedic body were then rendered therapeutically indefensible and impossible to imagine in practice. The new Ayurvedic medicine was the product not of an embrace of Western approaches, but of a creative attempt to develop a viable alternative to the Western tradition by braiding together elements drawn from internally diverse traditions of the West and the East.

Mariaelena Perowski, RN, CCRN, PHRN, wants to help people get well quickly. That's why this dedicated professional staff nurse is at home in the Emergency Department at Monongahela Valley Hospital (MVH). Perowski, who is a resident of Charleroi, has spent the last 21 of her 29 years as a full-time nurse providing emergency care to residents of the mid-Mon Valley. She is the recipient of prestigious Cameos of Caring® Award, which recognizes nurses who demonstrate excellence in nursing care, serve as advocates for patients and families, and embodies the essence of the nursing profession.
While her mother wanted her to study nursing, Perowski initially followed a different path — she married and started a family. At the encouragement of her friend, the mother of three applied to and was accepted at Washington Hospital School of Nursing when her youngest child was only 5 years old. She studied diligently with her friend Georgina Koslosky, RN, who is the Employee Health Nurse at MVH. Out of their class of 50 student nurses, Perowski and Koslosky received the "Exceptional Care Giver" awards.

Mixed-use | China is moving, Bin Hai is moving, Tanggu is moving, the Haihe River is moving. The Tanggu Swan is figurative language in built form. Our design seeks to attract, gather and intensify the energy of central Tanggu to create the single most energetic spot in the New Bin Hai Development Area. The Tanggu Swan features a dramatically proportioned hotel tower which, paired with a new tower across the street, will create the gateway for Tanggu's primary retail street. The height of the hotel is accentuated by the project's four residential towers, which step down in height as they approach the hotel tower. Opposite the four towers are two curvilinear mid-rise buildings residential buildings featuring sky gardens complete with swimming pools.
Sliding between these the residential towers and the mid-rise buildings is the retail and entertainment core of the project. This curving walk street is anchored at one end by the towering hotel, and at the other by a domed entertainment plaza, an anchor retailer and an anchor entertainment center. The Tanggu Swan will create an exciting gathering place for Tanggu and the Bin Hai District.


As with all of my recipes, the ones in this blog started with a mission. Part one: A nutrition-filled alternative to oatmeal, which my husband loves but isn't supposed to eat due to his food sensitivity. Part two: A nondairy hot chocolate that doesn't taste like deprivation. This one was for me and for my youngest daughter—we are both hot chocolate fanatics and (sadly) both off dairy and cane sugar. Based on their reviews, I've succeeded. I hope you'll think so too!
The base here is quinoa cooked sweet, not savory. While the mix-ins I generally use are apple, dates, almonds and coconut, use your imagination! Pear is an easy alternative to apple, of course. If you like citrus, then I try orange instead of the apple. Pine nuts (preferably toasted) or walnuts—or any nut—are fine alternatives to almonds. Chopped figs or chopped dried apricots or raisins are alternatives to dates. (I don't recommend dried cranberries because they generally contain sugar.) One thing I don't add is sweetener—the natural sugars of the fruits are plenty.
Tip: If you're not serving this to a group and will have leftovers, keep the quinoa separate from your mix-ins until you're ready to eat. Otherwise, you'll lose the freshness of the fruit and the crunch of the nuts.
If you are serving to a group, make a breakfast bar with the different options.
Meanwhile…prepare your mix-ins. While you can buy both coconut and sliced almonds already toasted, I prefer to toast my own using the toaster oven. Cover the tray with foil. Spread on a layer of coconut and toast on a light setting. Keep an eye on it—you want it lightly browned, but not burnt. And the switch from "just right" to "scorched" can happen pretty quickly.
Toast the almonds the same way. Do not try toasting the almonds and coconut together as their toasting times differ.
To serve, combine all ingredients and top with a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
Store any leftover almonds or coconut in containers in the refrigerator. They will lose their crunch if you mix in to any leftover quinoa.
If you have leftover apple, give it a squirt of lemon juice to help prevent browning.
My favorite part of this recipe is licking the spoon after I measure out the maple syrup, which I think is the singularly most delicious thing on the planet. (I'm often tempted to sip it like a cocktail!) I also used to be a huge chocolate milk fan, and this recipe is equally delicious cold. You can get creative with the extract—for example, I often make this with almond extract. The recipe here is for one serving.
Put the cocoa powder and hot water into a microwave-safe mug. (We have an instant-hot at our sink, but hot water from the tap should work too.) Mix to make a smooth paste. Note: If you skip this step, the cocoa will be lumpy.
Add maple syrup (remember to lick the spoon!), vanilla extract and milk. Stir. Microwave one minute. Stir again. Microwave another 30-60 seconds, depending on your microwave and on your personal preference and whether the milk was taken from the refrigerator or the pantry. Sprinkle with cinnamon and enjoy!
To make it a mocha (which my daughter prefers), add a splash of brewed coffee or ¼ to ½ teaspoon of instant coffee powder (to taste).
