Q: Hiding link in java script using style=none does not work in IE I am trying to hide some links using Java script style.display = 'none' property.It works fine in all browsers.But not in IE.Please suggest me some alternate for below code.
<script type="text/javascript">
    var copyLinks = document.getElementsByClassName('icon-copy');
    if(copyLinks != null && copyLinks != undefined){
        for(i = 0; i < (copyLinks.length); i++) {
            copyLinks[i].style.display = "none";
        }
    }
</script>

A: Display: none works in IE6-10 – without any form of bugs. If it's not working in a specific browser, there is either a syntax problem, or you're applying a style to that browser specifically somehow (IE7 stylesheet?)
You must check the version of it and what stylesheet it used in real.
I think it didn't match in someway. IE's really a big trouble with DEV
:D

A: The Problem might be with getElementsByClassName.
You Can try Below JQuery code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  $(function(){
    $(".icon-copy").hide();
  });
</script>

Here's Why You Should Add Prologis (PLD) Stock to Portfolio
DRE Quick Quote
You follow Analyst Blog - edit
In a rising e-commerce market, the industrial real estate asset category has grabbed headlines and continues to play a pivotal role, transforming the way how consumers shop and receive their goods. Services like same-day delivery are gaining traction and last-mile properties in high-income urban areas are witnessing solid pricing, occupancy and growth in rentals. Furthermore, demand for distribution space has been rising, as e-commerce continues to expand to sectors like grocery and furniture. Also apart from e-retail, food & beverage and home improvement companies are helping drive leasing activities.
This, in turn, is spurring demand for industrial/warehouse spaces, enabling industrial landlords like Prologis Inc. PLD, Duke Realty Corp. (
DRE - Free Report) and Terreno Realty Corporation TRNO, among others, to enjoy a favorable market environment.
Prologis remains well poised to grow, backed by its balance-sheet strength and prudent financial management. The company has also been actively banking on its growth opportunities through acquisitions and developments.
Also, shares of Prologis have outperformed the industry it belongs to in the past six months. This Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) company's shares have gained 26.3%, while the industry has recorded 5.8% growth during the same time frame. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.
Here's What Might Drive the Stock Higher
Rental Growth: Prologis is witnessing solid demand for its industrial real estates. Moreover, its high number of build-to-suit development projects highlights the advantageous location of the company's land bank. The company's share of net effective rent change was 37% in the July-September quarter compared with the prior year's 22.6%. This was driven by the United States at 41.7%. With rents outperforming, management raised its 2019 U.S. rent growth forecast from 6% to 7%, resulting in an 80-basis-point expansion in its global rent forecast to 6.5%.
Acquisitions: Prologis' joint venture (JV) with Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM) has signed a deal to acquire a logistics real estate portfolio worth $1.99 billion. The 19-million-square-foot logistics real estate portfolio comprises 127 properties positioned across multiple U.S. markets. These include Southern California, San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle and Dallas. Prologis will own 55% stake in the portfolio and manage the properties on behalf of the JV.
Furthermore, this October, Prologis announced that it has entered into a definitive merger agreement with Liberty Property Trust LPT to acquire the latter in an all-stock transaction, valued at roughly $12.6 billion, including the assumption of debt. The acquisition, anticipated to close in first-quarter 2020, will strengthen Prologis' presence in target regions such as Chicago, Lehigh Valley, New Jersey, Houston, Central PA, and Southern California. Also, earlier in July, the company announced signing a definitive merger agreement to acquire warehouse owner Industrial Property Trust Inc. (IPT) in an all-cash deal valued at about $3.99 billion, including debt, from Black Creek Group.
Strong Balance Sheet: Prologis is focused on bolstering its liquidity. The company ended the quarter with leverage of 18.4% on a market capitalization basis and debt-to-adjusted EBITDA of 3.9x and $4.9 billion of liquidity. The company's financing activities in the third quarter has helped it lower total weighted average interest rate and lengthen weighted average maturity. Being a market leader, Prologis has the ability to raise capital at favorable rates.
Superior Return on Equity (ROE): Prologis' ROE is 6.92% compared with the industry average of 4.54%. This highlights that the company reinvests more efficiently compared with the industry.
Estimate Revision Trends: In addition, the trend in estimate revisions of 2019 and 2020 funds from operations (FFO) per share indicates a favorable outlook for the company. In fact, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2019 and 2020 FFO per share has been revised upward 1.2% and 4%, respectively, in two months' time. Therefore, given the improvement on fundamentals and positive estimate revisions, there is decent upside potential to the stock.
Note: Anything related to earnings presented in this write-up represents funds from operations (FFO) — a widely used metric to gauge the performance of REITs.

Oh, to be sensitive to your Spirit!
Sometimes, due to the clamor of the world, the desires of the flesh and the direct attacks of the devil, we move internally away from intimate communion with You. And it's just that that gives us power to overcome the other! This vicious circle syndrome could certainly take us down through numbness into deadness if it wasn't for our oneness with Christ.
Thank you for the organic union you have wrought through our new birth whereby we became partakers of your divine nature.(2 Pet 1:2-4) You will never leave us or forsake us. You will discipline us, if necessary, and take the initiative in breaking that vicious circle in order to fill us with the knowledge of your will and enable us to fulfill it.
Intimate communion with You, how many of us avail ourselves of the privilege?
To think for a moment that any worldly pleasure could even approach the tremendous satisfaction of experiencing You is absurd! And in light of the fact that You are the one who gives us all things to enjoy, it's even more absurd to seek after anything other than You. Every good and perfect gift we have or ever will have is from you. And what do we have, that's worth having, that we did not receive from You? Nothing! And knowing and believing what Jesus said in Matt 6:33, " But keep on seeking first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things ( such as food, shelter, clothing, occupation, money, mate, and achievement; as well as love, joy, peace, wisdom and power) shall be added unto you". On the basis of that statement alone, backed by Your character and the veracity of You Word, we would be crazy to substitute seeking any of these lesser important things for seeking after You.
Seeking you, however, is sometimes remote to our feelings and seems such an indirect method of achieving the satisfaction we want or the material thing we need. You say we, the Gentiles, out of the futility of our minds, spend the majority of our time seeking after the very things you want to give us. What a paradox! For You say we have not, because we ask not! How simple and humbling! We think, in ignorance of Your way, that everything we want we must get for ourselves. And if we bothered to come to You, we sometimes assume that what we want would be considered by You to be illegitimate and therefore wrong to want it, because we have concluded erroneously that You are some kind of cosmic killjoy! So, we run around seeking after the very things you would gladly give us. It's the "seeking after" that messes up our lives. For if we move out to get our needs met on our own, the very things we go after and get sour once obtained and become sources of dissatisfaction and pain. The thing or the experience we want is usually not the issue, but the "seeking after". Certainly there are illegitimate things and experiences, but they are sought after, as a rule, to satisfy legitimate needs and desires.
So, Paul sets up an analogy that everyone would be familiar with; in the same way that it would be wrong for a virgin to go outside of her betrothed to get her sexual needs met, it is wrong for us to go outside of Christ to get any of our needs met. Clearly, Christ is our husband, our provider and as the Scripture says, "for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God (Exodus 34:14) and we would obviously provoke Him to jealousy, as a virgin would her betrothed, if we go to some other source, or methodology, to get our needs met. So, Paul then says, " But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be led astray from the simplicity and purity of Christ." Where do we go or what do we turn to when a pressing need is weighing in on us? The Spirit made it clear to Paul and to us through Paul; "your MIND"! Satan told Eve if she ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, she would be wise, become like God and be able to live life successfully by means of her own capacity to reason and make sound decisions. So, too, in like manner, we, as Christians, can be led astray from the "simplicity" and "purity" of having our needs met by Jesus Christ as we occupy our minds with Him. Its so simple, it sounds "too good to be true" and its pure because it is unmixed with our mental and volitional effort. Its sounds foolish to believe that practical needs can be met by focusing our time and attention on "growing in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ", but that is the operational mode of the Christian Life.

Eclipse Introduction
If you are new to eclipse then go on and read this.
Eclipse is an open source software development project, the purpose of which is to provide a highly integrated tool platform. The work in Eclipse consists of a core project, which includes a generic framework for tool integration, and a Java development environment built using it. Other projects extend the core framework to support specific kinds of tools and development environments. The projects in Eclipse are implemented in Java and run on many operating systems including Windows and Linux.
By involving committed and enthusiastic developers in an environment organized to facilitate the free exchange of technology and ideas, Eclipse is hoping to create the best possible integration platform. The software produced by Eclipse is made available under the Common Public License (CPL), which contains the usual legalese, but basically says that you can use, modify, and redistribute it for free, or include it as part of a proprietary product. The CPL is Open Source Initiative (OSI)-approved and recognized by the Free Software Foundation as a free software license. Any software contributed to Eclipse must also be licensed under the CPL.
Eclipse.org is a consortium of a number of companies that have made a commitment to provide substantial support to the Eclipse project in terms of time, expertise, technology, or knowledge. The projects within Eclipse operate under a clearly defined charter that outlines the roles and responsibilities of the various participants including the board, Eclipse users, developers, and the project management committees.
It is built to meet the following requirements:
Support the construction of a variety of tools for application development.
Support an unrestricted set of tool providers, including independent software vendors (ISVs).
Support tools to manipulate arbitrary content types (e.g., HTML, Java, C, JSP, EJB, XML, and GIF).
Facilitate seamless integration of tools within and across different content types and tool providers.
Support both GUI and non-GUI-based application development environments.
Run on a wide range of operating systems, including Windows® and Linux.
Capitalize on the popularity of the Java programming language for writing tools.
Eclipse Plug-in Development Environment
An Eclipse plug-in is the smallest unit of Eclipse Platform function that can be developed and delivered separately. Usually a small tool is written as a single plug-in, whereas a complex tool has its functionality split across several plug-ins. Except for a small kernel known as the Platform Runtime, all of the Eclipse Platform's functionality is located in plug-ins.
Eclipse Plug-ins are coded in Java. A typical plug-in consists of Java code in a JAR library, some read-only files, and other resources such as images, web templates, message catalogs, native code libraries, etc. Some plug-ins do not contain code at all. One such example is a plug-in that contributes online help in the form of HTML pages. A single plug-in's code libraries and read-only content are located together in a directory in the file system, or at a base URL on a server. There is also a mechanism that permits a plug-in to be synthesized from several separate fragments, each in their own directory or URL. This is the mechanism used to deliver separate language packs for an internationalized plug-in.
Each plug-in has a manifest file declaring its interconnections to other plug-ins. The interconnection model is simple: a plug-in declares any number of named extension points, and any number of extensions to one or more extension points in other plug-ins.
A plug-in's extension points can be extended by other plug-ins. For example, the workbench plug-in declares an extension point for user preferences. Any plug-in can contribute its own user preferences by defining extensions to this extension point.
An extension point may have a corresponding API interface. Other plug-ins contribute implementations of this interface via extensions to this extension point. Any plug-in is free to define new extension points and to provide new API for other plug-ins to use.
On start-up, the Platform Runtime discovers the set of available plug-ins, reads their manifest files, and builds an in-memory plug-in registry. The Platform matches extension declarations by name with their corresponding extension point declarations. Any problems, such as extensions to missing extension points, are detected and logged. The resulting plug-in registry is available via the Platform API. Plug-ins cannot be added after start-up.
Plug-in manifest files contain XML. An extension point may declare additional specialized XML element types for use in the extensions. This allows the plug-in supplying the extension to communicate arbitrary information to the plug-in declaring the corresponding extension point. Moreover, manifest information is available from the plug-in registry without activating the contributing plug-in or loading of any of its code. This property is key to supporting a large base of installed plug-ins only some of which are needed in any given user session. Until a plug-in's code is loaded, it has a negligible memory footprint and impact on start-up time. Using an XML-based plug-in manifest also makes it easier to write tools that support plug-in creation. The Plug-In Development Environment (PDE), which is included in the Eclipse SDK, is such a tool.
A plug-in is activated when its code actually needs to be run. Once activated, a plug-in uses the plug-in registry to discover and access the extensions contributed to its extension points. For example, the plug-in declaring the user preference extension point can discover all contributed user preferences and access their display names to construct a preference dialog. This can be done using only the information from the registry, without having to activate any of the contributing plug-ins.
The contributing plug-in will be activated when the user selects a preference from a list. Activating plug-ins in this manner does not happen automatically; there are a small number of API methods for explicitly activating plug-ins. Once activated, a plug-in remains active until the Platform shuts down. Each plug-in is furnished with a subdirectory in which to store plug-in-specific data; this mechanism allows a plug-in to carry over important state between runs.
The Platform Runtime declares a special extension point for applications. When an instance of the Platform is launched, the name of an application is specified via the command line; the only plug-in that gets activated initially is the one that declares that application.
By determining the set of available plug-ins up front, and by supporting a significant exchange of information between plug-ins without having to activate any of them, the Platform can provide each plug-in with a rich source of pertinent information about the context in which it is operating. This context cannot change while the Platform is running, so there is no need for complex life cycle events to inform plug-ins when the context changes. A lengthy start-up sequence is avoided, as is a common source of bugs stemming from unpredictable plug-in activation order.
The Eclipse Platform is run by a single invocation of a standard Java virtual machine. Each plug-in is assigned its own Java class loader that is solely responsible for loading its classes (and Java resource bundles). Each plug-in explicitly declares its dependence on other plug-ins from which it expects to directly access classes. A plug-in controls the visibility of the public classes and interfaces in its libraries. This information is declared in the plug-in manifest file; the visibility rules are enforced at runtime by the plug-in class loaders.
The plug-in mechanism is used to partition the Eclipse Platform itself. Indeed, separate plug-ins provides the workspace, the workbench, and so on. Even the Platform Runtime itself has its own plug-in. Non-GUI configurations of the Platform may simply omit the workbench plug-in and the other plug-ins that depend on it.
The Eclipse Platform's update manager downloads and installs new features or upgraded versions of existing features (a feature being a group of related plug-ins that get installed and updated together). The update manager constructs a new configuration of available plug-ins to be used the next time the Eclipse Platform is launched. If the result of upgrading or installing proves unsatisfactory, the user can roll back to an earlier configuration.
The Eclipse Platform Runtime also provides a mechanism for extending objects dynamically. A class that implements an "adaptable" interface declares its instances open to third party behavior extensions. An adaptable instance can be queried for the adapter object that implements an interface or class. For example, workspace resources are adaptable objects; the workbench adds adapters that provide a suitable icon and text label for a resource. Any party can add behavior to existing types (both classes and interfaces) of adaptable objects by registering a suitable adapter factory with the Platform. Multiple parties can independently extend the same adaptable objects, each for a different purpose. When an adapter for a given interface is requested, the Platform identifies and invokes the appropriate factory to create it. The mechanism uses only the Java type of the adaptable object (it does not increase the adaptable object's memory footprint). Any plug-in can exploit this mechanism to add behavior to existing adaptable objects, and to define new types of adaptable objects for other plug-ins to use and possibly extend.

On Thursday 25th January nine Biggar Ramblers met in the afternoon to do a short circular walk from Biggar to Hillridge Farm. They were lucky with the weather as it had been very wet, sunny conditions prevailed. The result of the previous rain and the recently melted snow was some very muddy terrain! Anyway the end of the walk was through the Burn Braes which gave a good opportunity for a boot clean in the ford.
This marked the last walk in the current programme but a new series of outings starts in February. The programme is downloaded from the Biggar Ramblers website. It is always good to see new faces. If you spot a walk you fancy come along, we meet before each walk outside the Corn Exchange.

Presidential Polls: PDP, Atiku Have Evidence To Win At Tribunal – Counsel
Dr. Livy Uzoukwu has said the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the just concluded election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has all the facts to prosecute his case at the tribunal and emerge victorious.
Uzoukwu, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) and Lead Counsel of the Atiku/Obi legal team, disclosed this in an interview on Monday after leading other lawyers to file petition on behalf of Alhaji Abubakar at the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal in Abuja.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had on February 27, declared President Buhari, the standard-bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC), winner of the presidential election.
Buhari polled a total of 15,191,847 votes while Atiku Abubakar got 11,262,978.
However, Abubakar and his party, the PDP, were dissatisfied with the conduct of the election and the eventual declaration of Buhari as winner and moved to seek legal redress.
In a bid to meet up with the 21 days stipulated by section 134 of the Electoral Act, 2010, Dr. Uzoukwu, head of the legal team, led other lawyers to submit a petition on behalf of his client on Monday.
The petition which was duly signed by Alhaji Abubakar himself, has the PDP as co-petitioner while INEC, APC and President Buhari were joined as respondents.
Dr. Uzoukwu expressed optimism that his client would emerge victorious at the tribunal, saying he was convinced that PDP won the presidential election in the first place.
"I believe we have sufficient facts to move the court to appreciate our case and grant us our reliefs.
"We are ready and prepared to prove our case because it all depends on proofs and we are ready to prove our case.
"We have filed the petition, which is most fundamental, with some documents", he said.
Though he admitted the team was currently having challenges accessing documents from INEC, he said that would not deter them from continuing with the suit.
"We may be having some challenges accessing documents from INEC, notwithstanding, we have filed the petition and with time, INEC shall be made to obey the orders of the court of appeal and grant us access to electoral documents.
"That we have filed petition does not mean we cannot make use of those documents when we eventually secure them from INEC.
"Some members of the team were in INEC three times last week, they were in INEC yesterday and even today but they asked them to come tomorrow (Tuesday), that by tomorrow they will provide them with some documents.
"I do hope that INEC will keep to its words and do the needful, because they have no option as far as the matter is concerned. Because we are talking about the compliance with an order of the court", he added.
On the question of moral qualification posed on the Chairperson of the Tribunal, Justice Zainab Adamu Bulkachuwa, whose husband is a Senator-elect under the APC, Dr. Uzoukwu said his team would wait until the matter begins at the tribunal.
He said, "I don't want to express any opinion in that regard now, but until the matter is ready to go on, because as we speak, I do not have the facts and I don't want to speculate".
He said that to successfully prosecute the case at the tribunal, Alhaji Abubakar and the PDP have assembled about 20 SANs and 400 witnesses.
The lawyers are praying the tribunal that their client, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, be returned "as person who won majority of lawful votes cast at the election".
In an event that the main prayer does not scale through, the lawyers also pushed for an alternative prayer, "that the election be set aside and for the court to order a rerun".
But according to Uzoukwu, "The alternative prayer can only come to play if the court does not agree with us in the main prayer.
"But I believe we have substantial facts to prove our case, to prove our entitlement to the main relief. I'm convinced beyond any doubt that Alhaji Atiku Abubakar won the election".


In a briefing earlier this week, Amazon told TechCrunch that it was surprised by how Alexa has been embraced by families. But while the smart assistant isn't exactly risqué (with a couple of notable exceptions), there are certainly things you don't necessarily want your kid getting access to — shopping and explicit music among them.
With that in mind, the company is rolling out an update to the Alexa, designed specifically with concerned parents in mind. On May 9, the assistant is getting its very own version of FreeTime, the parental control program the company introduced for its Fire tablets. The offering is available in both free and premium tiers, the latter of which runs $3 a month for Prime members. If parents are already FreeTime Unlimited subscribers, however, they'll get the new version for free.
The free version of FreeTime on Alexa (confusing, I know), gives parents device time limits, parental controls over skills and services and the ability to view their kids' activity via a new parental dashboard in the app. This version of Alexa also maintains the new intercom functionality, but drops the ability to make phone calls outside of the home.
Alexa has also been trained to understand kid questions and speech patterns and has new answers targeted specifically at kids. You can, say, ask it to tell you a dinosaur joke, and it will be suitably groan-inducing.
The premium tier adds a bunch of kid-friendly content to the assistant. The list includes 300 Audible books, ad-free stations from iHeartRadio Family and premium skills and stories from Disney, National Geographic and Nickelodeon. That includes wake-up alarms featuring familiar Disney and Nickelodeon IP, like Coco.
A year of premium will also come bundled with the Echo Dot Kids Edition.

Q: php: using batching for google cloud storage delete operations I'm trying to set up batch deleting of GoogleCloudStorage objects. After
$config = [
            'projectId' => <MY Project ID>
            'keyFile'  => json_decode(file_get_contents( <my json key file> ), true)
          ];
$google_client = new Google_Client($config);
$google_client->setUseBatch(true);

$delete_batch_storage_client = new Google_Service_Storage($google_client);

$delete_batch = new Google_Http_Batch($google_client, false, NULL, "batch/storage");

$storage_client = new StorageClient($config);
$bucket = $storage_client->bucket(<my bucket name>);

$params = [
    'prefix' => <my image path>,
    'fields' => 'items/name, items/size, items/updated'
];

foreach ( $bucket->objects($params) as $object )
{
    $delete_batch->add($delete_batch_storage_client->objects->delete($bucket->name(), $object->name()));
}

$result = $delete_batch->execute();

But when running my script, it builds the request, runs it, and fails. Best as I can see,
the problem is here:
"message": "Anonymous caller does not have storage.objects.delete access to the Google Cloud Storage object."

But, examining the source code for the Google_Http_Batch object execute() function, there is no authentication header created. What did I miss in my setup? I would have thought that instantiating the Google_Http_Batch object with the Google_Client would supply that info? But apparently not.
per note from John Hanley below, going to the console and looking at my service account, it looks like it has the following roles:
Editor
Firebase Service Management Service Agent
Owner
Service Account Token Creator
Service Account User
Viewer

I would have thought that either Editor or Owner would have delete permission.
I have only one explicit USE command in the code:
use Google\Cloud\Storage\StorageClient;
Here are the versions for the google libraries currently on my system:
google/apiclient                  v2.4.1
google/apiclient-services         v0.132

psr/log                           1.1.3
I looked at the content of the batch, and it seems that there ought to be either authorization header(s) on each delete request, or (I think better) one at the top level, and they aren't there. So I'm not doing something right when instantiating the objects.


My 6 year old has been learning the violin for 2 years, and is now in Book 2. She has had to go through some ups and downs on re-learning improved technique from a second teacher (who is great). I'm diligent about facilitating practice every day. While we do have some good days, on most days she hates repetitions of exercises or songs and gets frustrated extremely easily (i.e. at the very first error). New songs are the only thing that motivates her. I'm at my wits' end coaxing, encouraging and scolding (yes, I know that doesn't help but I lose my temper at times!) her to work at something hard by breaking it down into smaller pieces. I've tried rewards, ensured optimal energy levels (right after a meal, in the morning etc.), let her jointly determine the week's/day's practice plan with me and read/used Ed Sprunger's ideas. I emphasize how mistakes are the conduit to learning and not something to despair at, but about 50% of the time, she is reduced to tears and/or defiance.
I really believe that learning to play an instrument is not just about the music, but also a life-long skill on working through challenges and building confidence. So I'm reluctant to let her quit. (She hasn't said she wants to quit, but I wonder if that's because she knows how I feel.) She gets a lot of praise for the effort that she puts in, but she still has a ways to go to produce consistent tone and rhythm quality. When she applies her mind and is in the right mood, she can play great. The challenge is getting her to focus on the task at hand, enabling that mood, and not having her be afraid to make mistakes.
Any tips on how to handle this situation better?
That could have been a description of me when I was six. I knew what was right but could not physically make myself do it without mistakes. I wanted to move forward but was holding myself back. I still have the same problem—I enjoy learning new things. I don't like repeating the old things unless it is my choice. Somewhere in my mid teens, I matured enough to realize the things I did not enjoy were a path to things I would, but until then I took my frustrations out on my parents, which had to have hurt them.
My parents let me quit the violin when I was eleven, and eighteen months later I went back and never complained again. I just took on an adult student who quit several times throughout her childhood and is now trying to move forward from Suzuki Book 4. Quitting does not necessarily mean forever, but there really is no way to predict whether or not it will mean forever to your daughter. It also is not ideal, since starting again (usually with a new teacher) often means taking a step or two back in terms of progress rather than picking up exactly where you left off. That equals more frustration, at the very beginning of the teacher-student relationship, which can weaken a leg of the Suzuki Triangle.
Have you talked to your teacher about some supplemental material? Something of the same level but outside Suzuki repertoire might help break the monotony. Also, mixing up practice is sometimes good. If you are timing sessions (rather than counting repetitions of an exercise), consider either breaking the session in half with a ten minute break in between or getting rid of the timer. When I used a timer, thirty minutes was unbearable. As soon as I got rid of it, my practice time jumped to two hours. See, the timer was something else I could not control, which added to my growing frustration of not being able to choose what to play. There are also plenty of books and games for parents to use with their kids at home that are coordinated with Suzuki. A good place to start looking for those things is the Shar website, under the Suzuki tab where it says "Parent Materials."
Thanks a lot Courtney! I will try the parent materials on Shar. And also discuss adding non-Suzuki repertoire (she loves holiday music and fiddle tunes, and is itching to start reading notes; we've been intentionally holding off on the latter). We don't use a timer at home, but rather try to get through the practice plan (current piece, prior piece, 3-4 review songs, 1-2 scales) with a general time limit of about 45 mins to an hour, because beyond that there's not much left to give emotionally from either of us.
I think you are describing us when my daughter is at six years old! She is almost eight but we still have days like that. Absolutely agree with you that this is a life-long skill. Our teacher couldn't stress enough about the important of group classes. We have classes twice a month. We have monthly recital. For our family, we go to the Summer Institute too. For the lessons, we now get to do rhythm work and reading. My daughter enjoys the new addition very much. At the group classes, we learn fiddle tunes too and the kids have fun.
There is one book I read and re-read "How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk" by Adele Faber. It has helped me to understand the crazy dynamics of being a parent. I am still learning this dance, everyday.
Hang in there! Find the rhythm, the balance. I have friends asking me about finding a violin lesson for their kids when they heard about my daughter playing the instrument. The impression I got was that it would be another nice activity to do. They have NO idea that this is a HUGE commitment from any parents—their time and energy and the emotional and financial investment. For us, oh it is so worth it!!!
Mother of 7 year old cellist here. I found the straight forward book "how to get your kid to practice without resorting to violence" by Cynthia Richards helpful. The author takes a pretty unflappable stance regarding tears, explains why they happen (it's common), what to do about them, and how much to expect (they lessen with age). You can be doing everything right and still have plenty of tears. Having said that, we've had to back off practice time, intensity, and difficulty of material, after having discussed the issue in private with her teacher. (yesterday's practice was only 15 minutes). Steady, real progress is still happening, and we are still laying down a solid foundation of technique because it is a quality, closely supervised 15 minutes. Obviously, we hope to increase the time once she reaches a new level of maturity. Also, I formed a small musical playdate club with another family. We get together once a month or so and have the girls perform their latest and greatest, then they go off and play.
BTW Martin and Courtney, I enjoyed your posts and agree. Courtney, I couldn't find the parent materials on Shar. Maybe I'm just blind.
Martin and Gina—thank you so much for your comments too! I have been absorbing and internalizing them :). Love the play-date idea!
I also trolled through prior posts and realized that one thing I am consistently doing incorrectly is being too ambitious as a parent and trying to correct multiple things at the same time. This has overwhelmed my kid to the point of not wanting to hear even one correction from me. So definitely taking a step back and talking less, focusing on one point of technique instead of multiple, and adding more fun/variation to the routine are the common themes that I will be thinking about more actively!
Also just want to thank this community for such a wonderful and lively forum, this is my first time posting and you guys are super-helpful!!
I was also an easily frustrated kid. I was very (italics!!) sensitive, and disappointing my parents was the ultimate failure. That makes me sound like the sort of child who did everything I was asked… haha! Rather, my parents' disappointment stimulated my stubborn, rebellious streak, testing their love—will they still love me if I don't succeed, if I'm not perfect? Of course the answer is yes, but to a child that's not always evident. And how does a child know when they have succeeded? It's all so abstract. Mom knows when I got it right, but what was different that time and how am I supposed to do it? Frustration stems from wanting too much too soon, from putting too much pressure and weight on something that seems beyond our reach.
As a musican, and as a teacher, I try to keep things calm, relaxed and unencumbered by heavy emotions. I put the emphasis on my students' trying, above all, and when they succeed—by trying, they will for sure! we all forget that occasionally—I try to help them recognize that their continued efforts lead (past tense) to their succeeding with each small challenge. Make it clear that even if they don't get it right, today or tomorrow, you will still love them. I ignore some "undesirable" behaviours which will eventually simply disappear. I focus on the journey, on enjoying the sounds my instrument is making, on the feel of the bow on my string. I try to give my students fun "challenges", rather than things to "fix". We once upon a time learned to walk, we didn't "fix" our not knowing how to walk. Of course we do need to know what not to do, but we're learning and teaching our bodies, not deliberately disobeying. We can know what to do in our minds, but not know how to translate it physically. But it will come, with calm, "faithful" (I use the word in its non-religious sense, but perhaps you will in another) repetition and effort.
I hope this helps! Kudos to you for your efforts and stick-to-itiveness.
THanks Anne, it's always good to get points of view from additional cello teachers and professional musicians.
Chantale, In my daughter I have totally seen her fear in disappointing me and her fear that I will no longer love her. Words just can't seem to convince her otherwise. I have heard that part of the reason kids are more likely to act out as pre teens and teens is because only then are they fully secure in your love for them.
Learning for life, I think your instinct to back off is right on! In our enthusiasm to set up good habits from the start it is easy to overcorrect. I was really getting tired of hearing myself make corrections and it must have been far worse for her. It was not sustainable for either of us.
If you give someone a string instrument for the first time, they will do everything wrong. Pretty much all aspects of playing a violin or cello correctly are counterintuitive. Therefore, when starting out, you have a big lump of wrong. Because the human brain can only think about one thing at a time, you have to chisel away at it slowly, a little here, a little there. It's really a marathon, and if you start out at a full sprint, you will be looking for the sag van at mile 3. By giving her just one good habit to focus on and celebrating when she makes it through to the end with that one thing in place, perhaps it will help lessen the frustration. If you give her two, acknowledge it is super hard to think about both at once, but that you want to see if she is up for the challenge. Sometimes I let my daughter pick one, and I pick the other. We made good habit cards with cartoons representing a habit. Sometimes we draw them randomly from a bag. Gradually we have been able to increase the number of good habits she can do at once, as they become part of her muscle memory. Her bow hold is the slowest and most stubborn, even though it was the very first habit we worked on!
2 important things to remember.
•1 Praise for focus and hard work, rather than for talent and achievement. Kids who work hard have everything to gain by working harder. Kids who see themselves as talented, have everything to loose.
•2 Make really good notes of your teachers specific sequential instructions and carry them out at practice tempo, the speed at which they can not go wrong.
She may enjoy "Music in Practice," a new free practice app that's available in the App Store and on Google Play. It mixes your practice tasks with a few surprises to give a more focussed practice session.
First, you sound like an incredible parent with vision and fortitude. Stay focused.
We need to learn how to embrace challenge. It is the challenge that changes us. This lesson will serve your child for the rest of your life so again, I encourage you to stay focused.
Please do keep us posted on this!

MIAMI GARDENS — Florida Atlantic defensive back Tavious Polo tied the Owls' single-game record for interceptions with three in a 42-39 win over Minnesota.
His final one sealed the biggest victory in FAU history.
With Minnesota driving toward a potential tying field goal, Polo stepped in front of Ernie Wheelwright at the Owls' 12 and picked off Adam Weber's pass with three seconds remaining to seal the victory.
"I knew he was trying to hit me with the out route, get some quick outs to get in field-goal range," Polo said of the play. "I told my safety (Taheem Acevedo) the play before that if they try to hit the out route again, I'm going to jump on it, so have my back."
Polo's pick was the seventh turnover forced by FAU, tying a team record.
The Gophers turned the ball over a total of five times in their first two games.
Minnesota turned the ball over five times by halftime, the final one coming with a little more than two minutes remaining.
A botched punt snap and subsequent illegal kicking penalty gave the Gophers the ball at the Owls' 2.
On the ensuing play, Cergile Sincere forced a fumble from running back Amir Pinnix that Frantz Joseph recovered in the end zone.
"We didn't put our heads down," said Joseph, who also recorded an interception. "We said, 'We've got to come out, I don't care how many plays it takes, we are going to stop them on the 1.' Everything happened right."
The seven turnovers offset a second-half offensive surge by the Gophers, who roll to 355 yards and 25 points in the final 30 minutes.
"Defense wins championships, but today we have to thank our 'O,' Polo said.
"The offense had our back."
Line dancing: FAU dipped into the offensive line's second team early to help execute the no-huddle offense.
Vinnie Henderson, Kevin Miller and Lavoris Williams all saw significant time in the first half.
"Our plan all game was to go in and tire them out, so we wanted to come out strong and fast and hit them with everything we've got right off the bat," center Nick Paris said.
The Owls also had guards David Matlock and John Rizzo swap sides.
To show his appreciation for the line play, quarterback Rusty Smith brought those who played to the post-game news conference and introduced them to the media.
Special problems: Aside from the muffed punt snap, the Owls also gave up a 91-yard kickoff return for a touchdown and missed a field goal.
After punter Keegan Peterson's first two punts barely averaged more than 20 yards, the Owls opted to try to convert a fourth-and-14 from the Minnesota 44 with 13 seconds remaining in the first half rather than punt.
Smith rolled out, trying to use up time, before eventually sending a long pass out of bounds.
Noteworthy: The start of the game was delayed more than 10 minutes because the yardage chains weren't on the field. Florida Atlantic's no-huddle offense was slowed during its first possession when a member of the chain gang became tangled in the chain. ... Carldayle Brantley made his first start at safety, replacing injured Kris Bartels. ... Jeff Blanchard broke his ankle on the opening kickoff. ... Former Atlantic High standout Jamal Harris made four tackles and broke up a pass for the Gophers.

Q: Initial placeholder with Paging Architecture Components I'm using the Paging Architecture Components in my project to load a list from the network (no database usage yet). My DataSource is a PositionalDataSource subclass, and my PagedList.Config looks like this:
PagedList.Config config = new PagedList.Config.Builder()
        .setPageSize(10)
        .setInitialLoadSizeHint(20)
        .setPrefetchDistance(20)
        .setEnablePlaceholders(true)
        .build();

Placeholders are enabled, and I handle null ViewHolders in my PagedListAdapter subclass to display placeholder items differently. The placeholders work fine when loading additional items at the end of the list, but I also want to display a placeholder item before the first few items are loaded (like a regular loading indicator).
Is there a way to do this with the Paging library? I tried to call LoadInitialCallback.onResult() with a position of 1 instead of 0, but this only creates a placeholder item before the first real item, and that placeholder item never disappears.

A: I realize this question is rather old but I answer this, since this is where I ended up from googling the issue . In v3 there are LoadStateAdapter which you can add to Header and Footer for Prepend and Append load states. Initial load will be the refresh state which does not seem to be included but we can simply copy the functionality and extend it to include Refresh:
I simply copied withLoadStateHeaderAndFooter and added a third adapter that could be used for refresh
private fun PagingAdapter.withLoadStateAll(
        header: LoadStateAdapter<*>,
        footer: LoadStateAdapter<*>,
        refresh: LoadStateAdapter<*>
    ): ConcatAdapter {
        addLoadStateListener { loadStates ->
            header.loadState = loadStates.prepend
            footer.loadState = loadStates.append
            refresh.loadState = loadStates.refresh
        }
        return ConcatAdapter(refresh,header, this, footer)
    }

then you can simply register this to your Recycler as per the documentation and it'll show during initial load.
recycler.adapter = adapter.withLoadStateAll(LoadAdapter(),LoadAdapter(),LoadAdapter())

If you need to show more than one item during initial load simply copy LoadStateAdapter and change the number of items from 1 to n:
class InitialLoadAdapter(private val num : Int) : RecyclerView.Adapter<LoadViewHolder>() {

    var loadState: LoadState = LoadState.NotLoading(endOfPaginationReached = false)
        set(loadState) {
            if (field != loadState) {
                val oldItem = displayLoadStateAsItem(field)
                val newItem = displayLoadStateAsItem(loadState)

                if (oldItem && !newItem) {
                    notifyItemRangeRemoved(0,num)
                } else if (newItem && !oldItem) {
                    notifyItemRangeInserted(0,num)
                } else if (oldItem && newItem) {
                    notifyItemRangeChanged(0,num)
                }
                field = loadState
            }
        }

    override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): LoadViewHolder {
        return LoadViewHolder(parent)
    }
    override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: LoadViewHolder, position: Int) {}

    override fun getItemViewType(position: Int): Int = getStateViewType(loadState)

    override fun getItemCount(): Int = if (displayLoadStateAsItem(loadState)) num else 0

    private fun getStateViewType(loadState: LoadState): Int = 0

    private fun displayLoadStateAsItem(loadState: LoadState): Boolean {
        return loadState is LoadState.Loading || loadState is LoadState.Error
    }
}

A: There's a method from where you should pass the data set size, I think that it is what you are missing.
public abstract static class LoadInitialCallback<Key, Value> {
        /**
         * Called to pass initial load state from a DataSource.
         *

         * Call this method from your DataSource's {@code loadInitial} function to return data,
         * and inform how many placeholders should be shown before and after. If counting is cheap
         * to compute (for example, if a network load returns the information regardless), it's
         * recommended to pass data back through this method.
         *

         * It is always valid to pass a different amount of data than what is requested. Pass an
         * empty list if there is no more data to load.
         *
         * @param data List of items loaded from the DataSource. If this is empty, the DataSource
         *             is treated as empty, and no further loads will occur.
         * @param position Position of the item at the front of the list. If there are {@code N}
         *                 items before the items in data that can be loaded from this DataSource,
         *                 pass {@code N}.
         * @param totalCount Total number of items that may be returned from this DataSource.
         *                   Includes the number in the initial {@code data} parameter
         *                   as well as any items that can be loaded in front or behind of
         *                   {@code data}.
         */
        public abstract void onResult(@NonNull List<Value> data, int position, int totalCount,
                @Nullable Key previousPageKey, @Nullable Key nextPageKey);

I tried that but I am not been able to see the previews neither.

VW Risks its $31 billion Brand and Germany's National Reputation
· VW brand valued earlier this year at US$31 billion
· Estimated to have lost US$10 billion in brand value since emissions scandal emerged
· Further revelations threaten VW's future existence
· German nation brand tarnished, set to lose position as world's strongest
Recent revelations that, at the time of writing, as many as 11 million diesel vehicles may have been fitted with software designed to deceive emissions testers, have dealt a hammer blow not just to Volkswagen's reputation but potentially to the entire German nation brand. David Haigh, CEO of brand valuation and strategy consultancy Brand Finance, gives his view on the scandal that has sent shockwaves around the world.
"At Brand Finance's last calculation VW's brand value stood at just over US$31 billion, making it the world's 3rd most valuable auto brand. It appeared to be motoring ahead, brand value having increased from just over US$27 billion in 2014. The developments of the last few days will undoubtedly send this trend into reverse, resulting in $10 billion in lost brand value. The apparent ease with which the company's activities were uncovered makes it all the more astonishing that VW was willing to endanger its most valuable asset. Rather than 'Das Auto', VW's motto might be more appropriate if changed to 'Crass Auto'.
The Scandal in Front is a Toyota
"Toyota, the world's most valuable auto brand, suffered significant reputational and brand damage following a series of recalls over mechanical issues from 2009 to 2011. This was reflected in its brand value. After reaching a peak of US$27.3 billion in 2010, it dropped to US$26.2 in 2011 and further to $24.5 in 2012. It did not exceed the previous peak until 2014, when brand value was US$34.9 billion, increasing slightly to US$35 billion this year.
"On first assessment it appeared that Volkswagen might escape such severe brand damage. Toyota's errors led directly and visibly to fatal accidents while Volkswagen's alleged activity may also pose a threat to life, but in a less immediate way. However as the scale of the deception has emerged over the last few days it is beginning to look as though VW may face a crisis on an unprecedented scale.
"The cost of recalls and fines could be far more significant than those Toyota faced, whilst the apparently deliberate nature of VW's actions compounds the impact on its credibility. Its sins of emission are sins of commission. This sits particularly badly with Volkswagen's brand identity which is founded on reliability, honesty, efficiency (both efficiency of production and fuel economy) and more recently for environmental friendliness via models such as the Polo Bluemotion and XL1. Brand Finance therefore estimates that as much as $10 billion has already been wiped off the value of the brand.
VW Brand for the Scrapheap?
"The very future of the VW brand is in doubt. To have any chance of recovery, VW must investigate the source of the supposedly nefarious activity and if it is confined to a particular division or series of 'bad apples' then to clearly communicate that fact to avoid contagion. It must ensure that this type of activity cannot take place again and through multiple communication channels, from official statements to advertising campaigns, continue to emphasise the brand's green credentials and commitment to mitigating the effect of the industry on the environment.
From People's Car to People's Shame
"It may already be too late to stop the corrosive effect VW is having on the reputation of its home country, in particular its business culture. German industry is lauded for its efficiency and reliability while Germans as a whole are seen as hard-working, honest and law abiding. This perception has only been intensified by the Merkel government's firm, litigious approach to the Greek debt crisis.
"That such an iconic German brand, the 'people's car', could behave in this way threatens to undo decades of accumulated goodwill and cast aspersions over the practices of German industry, making the Siemens bribery scandal appear less a one-off than evidence of a broader malaise. Despite the vast scale of the deception, other firms will need to be implicated before the damage to Germany's nation brand become critical. Germany's status as the world's most powerful nation brand (revealed in the 2014 edition of the Brand Finance Nation Brands report) is under threat, and nation brand value could be set to fall when the results of our 2015 study are revealed next month."
