If you're thinking about buying a home this year, arm yourself with cash -- and gird for an aggressive, nasty and stressful battle in many markets. You may also need to up the price you'll actually pay well beyond your planned budget, according to a survey by website Owners.com.
The website surveyed 1,289 prospective buyers nationwide, and its findings suggested that most prospective homeowners already had their feet in the starting blocks for the spring selling season. More than half were willing to go beyond their budget -- by an average of nearly $38,000 -- to get the property they desired.
Even though the survey was done by an online real estate broker, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) probably wouldn't disagree. The NAR's most recent survey of "days on market" shows that the time it takes to sell a house has fallen by 28 percent, from 69 days in January 2015 to 50 days in January 2017, the last month figures were available (see following chart). Since the real estate market is seasonal, and usually improves in spring and summer, a comparison by month offers the best analysis.
The NAR chart indicates that the days on market figure could drop to the low 30 percent level by midyear, as it did in 2016. In other words, the average home for sale across the country will be on the market for about a month or less, depending on location. That encourages buyers to put down a bid right away -- or lose it.
The housing bubble, seen during the early years of this century, burst in 2007 and 2008, leaving a huge glut of homes on the market, along with a large number of foreclosures. But that has changed, and the market has seen a steady run-up of home prices in recent years, while builders of new homes haven't kept up.
Yun expects prices to rise 4 percent in 2017, roughly the same as last year. The reason he doesn't expect a huge spike -- at least right now -- is that a gradual increase in mortgage rates due to Federal Reserve interest rate hikes will "put a damper on it." Plus, the housing market has already seen a significant price rise.
Bicoastal prices, which are always tight, are on the rise, but even in the middle of the country, cities like Kansas City and St. Louis, Missouri, are also surging. The only declines on the horizon are in states such as Alaska, Louisiana and North Dakota, where job losses in the oil market have caused housing prices to fall.
Also, most of the homes for sale in New England aren't seeing multiple bids, with the exception of Boston, which is still a hot market, Yun said.
Udelson, who said the "hot market" cuts both ways, sounded a warning bell for what might happen in the future. In particular, he pointed to overextended areas of both coasts where only 30 percent to 40 percent of the prospective home buyers had the median income that could finance the mortgage for an average-price home.
"The wider spreads in prices are being set by the marginal buyers," said Udelson, meaning that those who are able to buy move the prices up, and everyone else tries to follow along.
The Owners.com survey concluded that nearly three-quarters of all potential buyers expect "stress in the home buying process." That comes as no surprise.

Here's What TV Newsers Are Saying About the Jussie Smollett Saga
NEXT:Scoreboard: Wednesday, Feb. 20
PREVIOUS:PBS NewsHour Continues to Expand Its Team by Naming New Foreign Affairs Producer
TV Biz
By A.J. Katz on Feb. 22, 2019 - 10:11 AM Comment
OK, we thought we'd let the dust settle just a tiny bit before diving into the Jussie Smollett saga.
After initially expressing support for the co-star of the Fox series Empire, a number of news personalities are now tearing into Smollett after he was taken into custody late Wednesday night/early Thursday morning in light of the new allegations that he filed a false police report claiming that two men wearing MAGA hats viciously attacked him last month in Chicago.
Filing a false police report results in a felony.
The Chicago PD allege that Smollett actually paid two brothers $3,500 to commit the fake hate crime against him in hopes that he would get a better salary from Fox; or as Chicago PD superintendent Eddie Johnson put it: "taking advantage of the pain and anger of racism to promote his career."
So, the victim became the suspect. Smollett posted $100,000 bond on Thursday afternoon, and was ordered to surrender his passport.
"Absolute justice would be an apology to this city that he smeared, admitting what he did and then be man enough to offer what he should offer up in terms of resources put into this," Johnson said; and earlier in the day, he remarked: "Why would anyone—especially an African-American man—use the symbolism of a noose to make false accusations? How could someone look at the hatred and suffering associated with that symbol and see an opportunity to manipulate that symbol to further his own public profile?"
Cable newsers broke into Johnson's presser, as did ABC, which interrupted its daytime program.
21st Century Fox and Fox Entertainment decided to write Smollett off the final two episodes of the current season of Empire. It's not known whether he'll come back for future seasons.
Empire is one of the highest-rated shows on broadcast TV among adults 18-49.
Good Morning America co-anchor Robin Roberts, who conducted the first interview with Smollett after the reported attack, said on GMA earlier on Thursday that the developments were "a setback for race relations," and added, "I cannot think of another case where there's anger on so many sides, and you can understand why there would be."
During that interview, which aired on Feb. 14, Smollett said one of the attackers said, "'This MAGA country, n****r' and he punched me in the face so I punched his a** back."
He added: "It feels like if I had said it was a Muslim or a Mexican or someone black, I feel like the doubters would have supported me a lot much more," Smollett said. "And that says a lot about the place where we are as a country right now."
The many high-profile media personalities and congressmen and women who quickly jumped to Smollett's defense and believed the story, now have different takes on Smollett's actions.
CNN and Fox News have reported on the story a lot over the past few days. MSNBC has basically stayed away from it in prime time.
Below, a couple of hot takes from this morning and last night.
Friday on CNN New Day, panelist Tiffany Cross—co-founder and managing editor of a publication named The Beat DC—said the following:
"This is an actor who was feigning this attack, trying to get more money for his salary. That's a separate conversation from what's happening in society at large and the divide is happening in this country with as John [Avlon] said hate crimes being on the rise. They rose 30 percent again recently, 7 percent in 2018 alone, and most of these groups are white supremacists groups."
Entertainment Tonight co-host and CNN contributor Nischelle Turner responded:
"But if that is true, didn't Jussie conflate the story? Didn't he bring this forward and force people to have the conversation? And if it is true, didn't he, in fact, attempt to paint MAGA supporters as these racist and homophobic people?"
Cross said she respectfully disagreed with Turner, and said "MAGA supporters have painted themselves as that" (meaning they're racists and homophobes).
"When you look at footage and hear what they say there is the honest to goodness truth and we have to be bold enough to call that out."
"It quickly became political and now we're talking about the right and the left. And I just think we should be talking about the right and the wrong," @nischelleturner says about the political debate surrounding Jussie Smollett's arrest. https://t.co/834y7ocWP2 pic.twitter.com/qWlZj2MrVH
— New Day (@NewDay) February 22, 2019
Van Jones joined the conversation too, stating:
"We can't actually say sometimes my team is right, I think my team is right 99 perecent of the time but the 1 percent time we're wrong, done. That doesn't mean I'm for the MAGA crowd. No one's been tougher on hate crimes and racism than me. But I'm also not going to be—I'm not going to let our movements for justice become tools for people who are up to no good."
He also added:
.@VanJones68 says the "worst" part of the Jussie Smollett case is "the truth that hate crimes are on the rise has now been completely obliterated by the potential that this is a whole hoax." https://t.co/xvzUBD5pIN pic.twitter.com/nmxkdb6avE
How about on Fox News?
"I can't believe I'm going to say this," The Five co-host Greg Gutfeld said during Thursday's broadcast. "I do believe that he is kind of a victim."
This is entirely preventable. This could have been prevented if the media divorced itself from its activist sensibilities. Since [President Donald] Trump's been elected, they've been informed by an anti-Trump bias that makes [the attack Smollett claimed] plausible. He knew he could fool the media.
On his program Thursday night, Tucker Carlson went after Don Lemon when discussing the story.
Carlson came to the conclusion that Smollett filed the false police report and faked the attack because he expected more fame, money, respect and power from being a victim. Carlson said the plan was working until the hoax was revealed. He showed some clips, including from the Robin Roberts GMA interview, before saying:
"Well, before he claimed that white supremacists beat him up on the street, most people had never heard of Jussie Smollett," said Carlson. "And after he became a victim everybody wanted to be his friend."
(For whatever it's worth, Empire, which airs on fellow 21CF property Fox Broadcasting, is one of the top-rated shows on broadcast TV among adults 18-49).
Carlson added, mockingly: "Here's Don Lemon over on CNN bragging how he texts his new pal Jussie [Smollett] every single day. He has his cell number. That's how close they are. Really tight!"
After the clip, he continued. "'You can talk to me', Don Lemon says, 'because there aren't a lot of us out there.'"
"Well here's the translation," said Carlson. "'Us' means people who have been oppressed in the way Jussie Smollett has been oppressed. Lemon is letting you know that he's in that group too. Yes is he a highly paid news anchor with his own TV show. And yet, like Jussie Smollett, Don Lemon is a holy victim."
Carlson discussed who the victims were in this crime, saying it is the people who the media and Smollett's supporters "poured venom on for two weeks."
"What about them? No mention of them," he said. He added that "Don Lemon would very much like to keep up those attacks on those people. Attacking them allows him to feel oppressed."
Below, video from conservative media outlet The Daily Caller of Carlson discussing the story. Daily Caller is an outlet Carlson co-founded, but is no longer involved with on a daily basis.
An hour after Tucker Carlson Tonight wrapped up, Don Lemon continued to discuss the story on his program. He said that if the Chicago PD is indeed correct in that Smollett faked his own hate crime, the saga is really distracting from the real victims of crime in Chicago, crime that merits more attention.

Q: Extract values from a given format with limited String Methods and no control structures For my java program I basically have to parse user input in this syntax: lastName, firstName middleName with the comma.
This is normally easy but I have to use the methods taught in my beginner class such as: indexOf, substring, and parseInt along with all primitive data types and no if else statements. I can't use length(), or use one number instead of two. only the version of substring with two arguments can be used;
Thanks all!
Edit: the following code i have is what i got so far. All i need to do is convert the syntax: Last, First Middle to First Middle Last without the comma.
       Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
       System.out.println("\fEnter your name in this syntax: Last, First Middle");
       String inputGet = input.nextLine();

       int comma = inputGet.indexOf(",");
       System.out.println(comma);
       String lastNameGet = inputGet.substring(0,comma);
       System.out.println(lastNameGet);
       System.out.println(inputGet);

A: This is not the entire solution, but if you are looking for a way to get the length of the string, try this:
String inputGet= ...
int lengthOfInput = (inputGet+"[Not part of anybody's name]").indexOf("[Not part of anybody's name]")-1;

A:        Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
       System.out.println("\fEnter your name in this syntax: Last, First Middle");
       String inputGet = input.nextLine();

       int comma = inputGet.indexOf(",");
       String lastNameGet = " " + inputGet.substring(0,comma);
       System.out.println(inputGet.substring(comma+2,inputGet.lastIndexOf("")) + lastNameGet);

If using lastIndexOf is forbidden as well, then you can take advantage of this modified version of Flight's length method, and do:
       Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
       System.out.println("\fEnter your name in this syntax: Last, First Middle");
       String inputGet = input.nextLine();

       int comma = inputGet.indexOf(",");
       String lastNameGet = " " + inputGet.substring(0,comma);
       int lengthOfInput = (inputGet+"[Not part of anybody's name]").indexOf("[Not part of anybody's name]");
       System.out.println(inputGet.substring(comma+2,lengthOfInput) + lastNameGet);

Q: Get a bounded metric from a metric - triangle inequality for $d'(x,y):=\frac{d(x,y)}{1+d(x,y)}$ This is related to Proof that every metric space is homeomorphic to a bounded metric space but I can remember that if $d$ is a metric, then $d'(x,y):=\frac{d(x,y)}{1+d(x,y)}$ is also a metric that defines the same topology.
I'm stuck on how to prove that $d'$ satisfies the triangle in-equality Am I just missing the trick how to prove it, or does my memory play tricks on me?

A: Define $\phi:[0,\infty)\to[0,\infty)$ by $$\phi(t)=\frac{t}{1+t}.$$Since $\phi$ is increasing it's enough to show that $$\phi(a+b)\le\phi(a)+\phi(b)\quad(a,b\ge0).$$This is the same as $$\phi(a+b)-\phi(a)\le\phi(b)-\phi(0),$$which is the same as $$\int_0^b(\phi'(t+a)-\phi'(t))\,dt\le0.$$So it's enough to show that $\phi'$ is decreasing.

The simplest solution (if the wheel pins on the stock spindles are not centered) is to swap the spindles left-to-right or upside down.
Find two pieces of sprue, or unused kit parts, that looks somewhat like the image above. Trim as needed. Figure out the desired ride height of the model, then cut the sprues accordingly. Drill a hole through the long part of the sprue, sized to fit a kit axle or piece of music wire. The wire will act as the pins to hold the finished spindle in place on the suspension.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella criticizes Indian government's Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA)
Sam Hall | January 14, 2020, 16:02
Microsoft boss Satya Nadella has spoken out about India's controversial new citizenship law.
"I think what is happening is sad, primarily as sort of someone who grew up there". This and more news on News Blast.
Satya Nadella had expressed his reservations over the Citizenship Amendment Act in an interaction with BuzzFeed editor-in-chief Ben Smith at a Microsoft event on Monday. "I think it's just bad", according to BuzzFeed. I feel, and and in fact quite frankly, now being informed shaped by the two unbelievable American things that I've observed which is both, it's technology reaching me where I was growing up and its immigration policy and even a story like mine being possible in a country like this.
Precise reason for CAA is to grant opportunities to persecuted minorities from Bangladesh, Pakistan & Afghanistan.
The statement was ill-received by some Twitterati with #SatyaNadella and #Microsoft trending within hours of the tweet.
The legislation, which has come into force from January 10, has led to intense protests across the country since December when the legislation was passed by Parliament, with students coming out on the streets in thousands in nearly all the states.
Following Nadella's remarks, Microsoft put out a statement attributed to the CEO: "Every country will and should define its borders, protect national security and set immigration policy accordingly". Capitalism has thrived because of market forces and liberal values, both acting and I hope India figures it out, Nadella said. "My hope is for an India where an immigrant can aspire to found a prosperous start-up or lead a multinational corporation benefitting Indian society and the economy at large", he said, but added that there was some good news to be drawn from the fact that people were at least debating the law in what was a "messy democracy". I wish that one of our own IT czars had the courage and wisdom to say this first.
The Citizenship Amendment Act came into effect on January 10, 2020, as directed by the Centre in a Gazette notification.
Citizens across the country have been protesting against the law many dubbing it "unconstitutional" and "anti-Muslim".

Finding ancestors one step at a time.
Long have I heard stories about George Washington having commissioned a weathervane from Joseph Rakestraw, my seventh great-grandfather. If true, this would be a pretty cool addition to the family history. But how do I prove or disprove it?
I began by looking for information on George Washington's weathervane and any mention of a Joseph Rakestraw. As it happens, Washington wrote a letter to a Joseph Rakestraw of Philadelphia on July 20, 1787, requesting that a weathervane be crafted. This weathervane was to have the shape of a bird with an olive branch in its mouth.1 A weathervane of that description can be found on the cupola at Mount Vernon today.

Now, I have been researching Rakestraws for a long time. In 1787, there were about five or six Joseph Rakestraws in and around Philadelphia. Most likely all related somehow, but still, how do I know which one fashioned the weathervane?
As I continued my research, I found that the Joseph Rakestraw to whom Washington had written was not a metalworker, he was a carpenter.2,3 This narrowed it down some. I know at least two Josephs were carpenters and one was a printer. I am unsure about the others. Of the two I know to be carpenters, one had moved out of Philadelphia in 1786, leaving only one that I know for sure was a carpenter.4,5 This one is the one I believe was my seventh great-grandfather.
Joseph Rakestraw, who was married to Rachel Ogilby and died in 1794, was the man whom Washington commissioned to create a weathervane for Mount Vernon. I believe this to be the same Joseph Rakestraw who is my seventh great-grandfather, but I am still trying to prove that his son Joseph and my sixth great-grandfather Joseph, who married Rebecca Gilbert, are the same person.

The clue is to check your Quaker records.
Joseph and Rebecca were "dismissed for marrying contrary to disipline – too near relative" 29 11th mo. 1785. Northern District." So go searching for how they were related and you'll find Rachel Ogilby's mother was a Gilbert.
I just checked and I don't have the record you mentioned. I tried searching on Ancestry and so far have been unable to find it there. I'll look again when I have more time. Last year, I did find a document that shows Joseph and Rachel (Ogilby) Rakestraw's children. I've done a chart to show how Joseph Rakestraw and Rebecca Gilbert are related. They are second cousins. I need to start posting again. I've found quite a bit of information on Rakestraws and Gillilands while I was having knee problems last year and unable to do much else.
There is another clue that suggests Joseph Rakestraw (Rachel Ogilby) is the Rakestraw that made the weathervane. Years ago, when I was working on Rakestraw genealogy, I did some research with a woman who descended from the daughter of Joseph Rakestraw (Rachel Ogilby), Hannah. Hannah married Abraham Colladay. Abraham was one of the executors of Joseph's will.
When she was a little girl she was fascinated by her grandmother's coloring book. Someone had pasted blank papers on an old inventory book so her grandmother could color. She could see writing under the coloring pages and always wondered what they were about. When grandmother died, she inherited the book. She told me about how out of curiosity, she soaked the book and removed the colored sheets. Under them was a book kept by Abraham Colladay for his business and an inventory of who still owed money to the estate of Joseph Rakestraw. A couple of the entries were for work on Mt. Vernon.
I was excited and we told Mt. Vernon about it but they didn't seem interested. She was so glad that when she soaked the book, she hadn't ruined the writing. I think I have some copies of that somewhere.
So excited! I just found the source about Joseph and Rebecca's marriage. It was not in Hinshaw's – but in a some film I ordered in from the Family History Library.

I wish I could see the original entry book.

USC/CLEMSON
Listen to SportsTalk Stream
Byron Floyd
OL Byron Floyd (6-1 250) of Mentor, OH doubles as a long-snapper. It's that particular skill that has grabbed Clemson's attention. Floyd comes highly recommended by Rubio Long-Snapping and earned their highest rating this spring.
"Massive Long Snapper that can easily pass an eyeball test from a college coach. Body is thick and very powerful. His balance is solid and he is leaning back really well. HIs snaps speeds are at the college level right now, let alone in a year and a half. Locking down his release point and making sure he is following through with both hands will drastically increase his overall accuracy and push his RSI way up." (Review by Rubio Long-Snapping)
Floyd displayed his skills at camps this summer, including Clemson, and the Tigers liked him enough to offer him a preferred walk-on opportunity. That's an offer he is considering.
"I've been to Clemson 3 times," Floyd said. "First time was at the elite junior day in March. That was an incredible experience. I went back for the spring game. It was awesome to get an idea of what a game day might be like. I got to go into the locker room after the spring game and listen to Coach Swinney. It was also an amazing experience. In June, I went to camp and snapped for them. I was fortunate enough to be asked to snap for Coach Swinney. That went well. I met Coach Swinney at both the junior day and camp. Coach Pearman and I chat weekly."
"Clemson is obviously a great opportunity," Floyd continued. "I really love it down there. Coach Pearman is really a great guy. There's details that need to be worked out and I'm going take my time making the best decision for me."
Floyd also visited Miami of Ohio and said the RedHawks also interest him. He also has an offer from Toledo.

Q: Smooth fadeout/transition between 2 textures in XNA WP7 I have 2 textures 800x480 (foreground/backgound) which are .png files in XNA Windows Phone 7 application.
I want to fadeout/transision foreground to reveal background. I have huge problem with performance. My idea is only to maipulate Alpha channel in one Texture2D so i created such a code:
GraphicsDeviceManager graphics;
SpriteBatch spriteBatch;

private Texture2D _background, _foreground;
private BlendState _blendState;
private uint[] _pixelsForeground;
private uint[] _pixelsBackground;

public Game1()
{
    graphics = new GraphicsDeviceManager(this);
    Content.RootDirectory = "Content";

    TargetElapsedTime = TimeSpan.FromTicks(333333);

    graphics.IsFullScreen = true;
    graphics.SupportedOrientations = DisplayOrientation.Portrait;
    graphics.PreferredBackBufferHeight = 840;
    graphics.PreferredBackBufferWidth = 480;
}

protected override void LoadContent()
{
    spriteBatch = new SpriteBatch(GraphicsDevice);

    _background = this.Content.Load<Texture2D>(@"background");
    _foreground = this.Content.Load<Texture2D>(@"foreground");

    _pixelsForeground = new uint[_foreground.Width * _foreground.Height];
    _pixelsBackground = new uint[_foreground.Width * _foreground.Height];

    _background.GetData(_pixelsBackground);
    _foreground.GetData(_pixelsForeground);

    _blendState = new BlendState
    {
        AlphaBlendFunction = BlendFunction.Add,
        ColorBlendFunction = BlendFunction.Add,
        AlphaSourceBlend = Blend.SourceAlpha,
        ColorSourceBlend = Blend.SourceAlpha,
        AlphaDestinationBlend = Blend.InverseSourceAlpha,
        ColorDestinationBlend = Blend.InverseSourceAlpha
    };
}

protected override void Update(GameTime gameTime)
{
    if (GamePad.GetState(PlayerIndex.One).Buttons.Back == ButtonState.Pressed)
        this.Exit();

    this.GraphicsDevice.Textures[0] = null;

    for (int x = 0; x < _foreground.Width; x++)
    {
        for (int y = 0; y < _foreground.Height; y++)
        {
            uint pixelCanvas = _pixelsForeground[y * _foreground.Width + x];
            uint newPixelCanvas = pixelCanvas - 0x05000000;
            _pixelsForeground[y*_foreground.Width + x] = newPixelCanvas;
            _pixelsForeground[y * _foreground.Width + x] = (newPixelCanvas & 0xFF000000) > (pixelCanvas & 0xFF000000)
                                                                                ? pixelCanvas & 0x00FFFFFF
                                                                                : newPixelCanvas;
        }
    }

    Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0, 0, _foreground.Width, _foreground.Height);
    _foreground.SetData<uint>(0, rect, _pixelsForeground, 0, _foreground.Height * _foreground.Width);

    base.Update(gameTime);
}

protected override void Draw(GameTime gameTime)
{
    GraphicsDevice.Clear(Color.CornflowerBlue);

    spriteBatch.Begin(SpriteSortMode.FrontToBack, _blendState);
    spriteBatch.Draw(_foreground, Vector2.One, null, Color.White);
    spriteBatch.Draw(_background, Vector2.One, null, Color.White);
    spriteBatch.End();

    base.Draw(gameTime);
}

Problem is that it generates poor performance because of:
_foreground.SetData<uint>(...)

What technique I can use to manage this better?
I'd rather need that manipulation of Alpha channel for other purposes.
Keep in mind that foreground pixels can have different alpha channel already on start something like transparent spots.

A: This is definitely the wrong way to approach this. What you want to do is pass a Color to the sprite batch's Draw method that has the appropriate alpha channel.
int alpha = 150;
spriteBatch.Draw(tex, pos, new Color(255,255,255,alpha));

That way, the GPU handles the alpha blending on your behalf, and your performance issues dissapear :-)

Q: Extract base64 image from string and post it with form I am trying to upload a image with my form in my Laravel project. I have a Image cropper that saves the image as data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD/..
the cropper sends a JSON string which contains a base64 encoded string of the file, i need to parse the JSON string to an object and then extract the base64 string and turn that into a file object.
I am using Image Intervention for the upload process
Controller function
public function store(Request $request)

    {

        // save post in db

        $post = new Post;

        $post->title = $request->title;
        $post->body = $request->body;
        $post->user_id = auth()->id();

        if ($request->hasFile('featimage')) {
            $image = $request->file('featimage');
            $filename = time() . '.' . $image->getCLientOriginalExtension();

            $image = trim($image);
            $image = str_replace('data:image/png;base64,', '', $image);
            $image = str_replace('data:image/jpg;base64,', '', $image);
            $image = str_replace('data:image/jpeg;base64,', '', $image);
            $image = str_replace('data:image/gif;base64,', '', $image);
            $image = str_replace(' ', '+', $image);

<button class="btn btn-danger btn-block" name="submit">Cancel</button>

</form>

I have read other posts like this and i'm clearly missing something but i just don't know what.

A: You can try this function.
    function uploadImage($base_64_string,$image_name)
{

    preg_match("/^data:image\/(.*);base64/i", $base_64_string, $match);
    $extension_array = explode('/', (explode(';', $base_64_string))[0]);
    $extension = end($extension_array);

    $img = $base_64_string;
    if ($extension == 'png' || $extension == 'jpg' || $extension == 'jpeg'){
        $img = str_replace('data:image/' . $extension . ';base64,', '', $img);}
    elseif ($extension == 'mp4' || $extension == 'mov'){
        $img = str_replace('data:video/' . $extension . ';base64,', '', $img);
    }
    $img = str_replace(' ', '+', $img);

    $data = base64_decode($img);

    $fileNameI = $image_name.'_'.rand().time() . '.' . $extension;

//Uploading Image To S3 Bucket
    $s3 = Storage::disk('s3-image');
    $filePath = Config::get('common.Image_Folder') . $fileNameI;
    $s3->put($filePath, $data, 'public');

    return $fileNameI;
}

If you don't have Bucket the you can store image in your local directory.

A: Try this hope it will work for you.
$featimage = $request->featimage; // base64 encoded image string

if (!empty($featimage)) {
    $image_parts = explode(";base64,", $featimage);
    $image_type_aux = explode("image/", $image_parts[0]);
    $image_type = $image_type_aux[1];
    $image_base64 = base64_decode($image_parts[1]);
    $imagename = rand(1, 999) . time() . '.png';
    $RootPath = public_path("images/uploads/"); // path where you want to upload image
    if (!File::exists($categoryRootPath)) {
        File::makeDirectory($categoryRootPath, 0777, true, true);
    }

    file_put_contents($RootPath . $imagename, $image_base64);

    $post->image = $imagename;
}

A: I ran your code in my program and I got a lot of error. If your trying to give input as base64 encoded string as 'data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD/..' and convert it to image file then use the below code:
$post = new Post;
$post->title = $request->title;
$post->body = $request->body;
$post->user_id = auth()->id();

if ($request->featimage) {
    $image = $request->featimage; // your base64 encoded
    $filename = time() . '.' . explode('/', explode(':', substr($image, 0, strpos($image, ';')))[1])[1];

    $image = str_replace('data:image/jpg;base64,', '', $image);
    $image = str_replace(' ', '+', $image);
    $location = public_path('images/uploads/' . $filename);
    Image::make($image)->save($location);
    $post->image = $filename;
}

$post->save();

If you are trying to take normal image file and save it in a public folder as well convert it to base64 format then use the following code.
$post = new Post;
$post->title = $request->title;
$post->body = $request->body;
$post->user_id = auth()->id();

if ($request->hasFile('featimage')) {
    $image = $request->file('featimage');
    $extension = $image->getCLientOriginalExtension(); //gives extension of image
    $filename = time() . '.' . $extension; //gives filename

    $location = public_path('images/uploads/' . $filename); //sets path

    $image = Image::make($image)->save($location); //makes image and saves it to that location

    $base64 = 'data:image/' . $extension . ';base64,' . base64_encode($image); //changes image to base64 image

    $post->image = $filename;
}

$post->save();

I hope the following code provides you the solution.
Thank you.

Remember When Carly Pearce Was a Backup Singer for Lucy Hale? [Watch]
Before she was Carly Pearce the country star, Carly Pearce was the backup singer for Pretty Little Liars' Lucy Hale when she dabbled in country music.
In 2014, Hale performed with Pearce at her side on the Honda Stage for an iHeartRadio special. She sang a few original songs, as well as this cover of Dolly Parton's "Jolene" — you'll notice a harmonizing Pearce at the beginning of the clip, although her hair was a bit shorter then.
Ironically, before landing the gig working with Hale, Pearce was a performer at Parton's Dollywood theme park. Shortly thereafter she signed a short-lived record deal with Sony, but when her A&R rep was fired, she was also let go.
Carly Pearce's "Closer to You" Is a Michael Ray Love Song
Hale always knew Pearce was destined for something bigger — when they met, she asked her, "Why are you singing backup for me? I YouTubed you last night, and I don't understand," Pearce recalls in a 2018 Cosmopolitan interview.
Pearce got the gig, obviously, and moved to Los Angeles, touring with Hale for three months. The "Every Little Thing" hitmaker has Hale to thank for helping her regain confidence, and soon enough Pearce was cutting her own songs while on the road, releasing a single independently.
That was enough to catch the attention of the major country record labels — Pearce ended up singing with Big Machine Records. "Every Little Thing" is her first No. 1 single as a solo country music artist.

Q: Is there a more efficient way using mysql to get a list for a given column in an sql result? I have a query that rows of a table each containing an id.
For each id I want to get multiple values from another table.
The way I would do this is make the first query, then loop through the result making a query for each id.
This could mean making a thousand queries, is there a way I could do this in 1 query.

A: I think you want group_concat().  Something like this:
select t1.id, group_concat(t2.othercol)
from table1 t1 join
     table2 t2
     on t1.id = t2.id
group by t1.id;

Or perhaps you just want in:
select t2.*
from table2 t2
where t2.id in (select t1.id from table1 t1);

Having announced his retirement in December, Kyle Goldwin reflects on a history making career that has seen him become Gibraltar's most capped goalkeeper and a Nations League Group Winner.
Making his debut against Latvia in 2018, Goldwin became a mainstay in our record breaking Senior Men's National Team that would go on to register their first ever official victories and claim the 2020/21 UEFA Nations League Group D title.
Thank you for everything Kyle, you will be missed!

Q: Is it feasible to create docker file for each service of my node project? I am learning docker.Somebody tell me what is the best practice to create docker images for node services.Should I create single docker image for whole project or implement one docker image for each api.What should be the best way and why, kindly give the explanation.

A:
Is it feasible to create docker file for each service of my node project?

Yes! If you think you can define different components of your project, separate them and use different "lean" containers. I suggest you take a look at this presentation from Jérôme Petazzoni: Implementing Separation of Concerns with Docker and Containers

from slides 32-34:
Bloated containers

*

*Containers have all the software required for production

*In dev mode, only essential processes are started

*In prod mode, additional processes run as well

*Problems:

*

*bigger containers

*behavior can differ (because of extra processes)

*extra processes duplicated between containers

*hard to test those extra processes in isolation

Lean containers
Principle

*

*"Do one thing, do it well"

*One container for the component itself

*One container for logging

*One container for monitoring

*One container for backups

*One container for debugging (when needed)

A: It is not a good practice to create one single image for different API's. Why ? Because each API has it's own needs, it's own environment variables, maybe different URLs to access different databases and so… Even if the dockerfile is the same for almost all your APIs containers, you may have different needs. The thing with docker is that it saves layers when you build your image, these layers are shared and cached so they can be reused by different services based on the same layers.
My advice is the following:
• If you are a putting in place a micro-service architecture with a unique role for each API, create separate images for each service
• If you dont care and you are running into a monolith architecture, use one single image

Q: MYSQL/PHP return and display data from multiple tables as sets I have four tables that I'm joining and want to return all rows in table lab_test that belong to a lab_test_group and display them like (groups in bold...):

Creatinine clearance
Creatinine (Fluid)
Creatinine (24 hour Urine)
Thyroid function tests (1)
Free T4
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone

The table structures with relevant data are:
lab_test
+-------------+-----------------------------+
| lab_test_pk |          lab_test           |
+-------------+-----------------------------+
|         191 | Creatinine (Fluid)          |
|         208 | Free T4                     |
|         782 | Creatinine (24 hour Urine)  |
|        1161 | Thyroid Stimulating Hormone |
+-------------+-----------------------------+

model_lab_test_lookup
+--------------------------+-------------+------------+
| model_lab_test_lookup_pk | lab_test_fk | pathway_fk |
+--------------------------+-------------+------------+
|                       26 |           2 |         90 |
|                       27 |           8 |         90 |
+--------------------------+-------------+------------+

lab_test_group
+-------------------+----------------------------+
| lab_test_group_pk |         group_name         |
+-------------------+----------------------------+
|                 2 | Creatinine clearance       |
|                 8 | Thyroid function tests (1) |
+-------------------+----------------------------+

lab_test_group_lookup
+--------------------------+-------------------+--------------+
| lab_test_group_lookup_pk | lab_test_group_fk |  lab_test_fk |
+--------------------------+-------------------+--------------+
|                        6 |                 2 |          191 |
|                        7 |                 2 |          782 |
|                       41 |                 8 |          208 |
|                       42 |                 8 |         1161 |
+--------------------------+-------------------+--------------+

The query that I'm using is:
SELECT *
  FROM lab_test_group,
       lab_test_group_lookup,
       model_lab_test_lookup,
       lab_test
WHERE lab_test_group.lab_test_group_pk = model_lab_test_lookup.lab_test_fk
  AND lab_test_group_lookup.lab_test_group_fk = lab_test_group.lab_test_group_pk
  AND lab_test_group_lookup.lab_test_fk = lab_test.lab_test_pk
  AND model_lab_test_lookup.pathway_fk = '$pathway_pk'
GROUP
   BY lab_test_group.lab_test_group_pk

In this example $pathway_pk == 90.
With the following code to display:
<?php
while ($row_lab_test_groups = mysql_fetch_assoc($result_lab_test_groups)){
    $test_groups_array[] = $row_lab_test_groups;

    echo "
" . $row_lab_test_groups['group_name'] . "
";

    foreach($test_groups_array as $r){
         echo "
" . $r['lab_test'] . "
";
    }
}
?>

Now this returns:
Creatinine clearance -
Creatinine (Fluid)
Thyroid function tests (1) -
Creatinine (Fluid)
Free T4
Part of the problem is the GROUP BY where only one record for each lab_test is returned, instead of the two lab_tests for each lab_test_group.
The question is how can I get the all the lab tests showing under the relevant lab_test_group? That is two for each group.
NOTE:
lab_test_fk in table model_lab_test_lookup is used to hold keys for individual lab_test rows as well as keys for lab_test_group...

A: You overdid the table structures just a little bit.  There's really no need to have "linking" tables with just primary and foreign keys.  But that train has passed and we'll turn a blind eye to it.  Use the following SQL statement on what you have:
SELECT * FROM
lab_test_group AS ABB2
   JOIN lab_test_group_lookup AS ABB1 ON ABB1.lab_test_group_fk = ABB2.lab_test_group_pk
      JOIN model_lab_test_lookup AS ABB3 ON ABB3.lab_test_fk = ABB2.lab_test_group_pk
        JOIN lab_test AS ABB4 ON ABB4.lab_test_pk = ABB1.lab_test_fk
WHERE ABB3.pathway_fk = $pathway_pk;

It's really advantageous to use actual JOIN operators in a complex query like this instead of putting all the links in the WHERE statement.  You'll be able to picture the joints between the tables much better.
Working example on SQLFiddle here

A: Hope this is helpful :
select * from lab_test as t1
inner join lab_test_group_lookup as t2
on t1.lab_test_pk = t2.lab_test_fk
inner join lab_test_group as t3
on t3.lab_test_group_pk = t2.lab_test_group_fk
inner join model_lab_test_lookup as t4
on t4.lab_test_fk = t3.lab_test_group_pk
where t4.pathway_fk = 90
order by t2.lab_test_group_fk

Wisdom Wednesdays
This February, Robert will be hosting "Wisdom Wednesdays." Each evening we will reflect on a subject that many are struggling with and seeking to get or share wisdom in these very powerful areas of our lives, areas that are often avoided in everyday human discourse.
The first half hour will be presentations by Robert and/or short video clips from various wisdom keepers. The second half hour will be a "talking stick segment" as anyone who feels guided to can share their wisdom, challenges or insights. The goal is to join together more as community to assist each other in the challenging times we incarnated into so that we might assist others that are sent to us. Though we will certainly discuss both the emotional and mental aspects, the emphasis will be on how do we, as evolving spiritual beings going through many incarnations effectively deal with these issues and emotions.
The subjects include:
Wednesday February 5: Personal Boundaries: When Are We Giving to Others at Too Great a Cost to Ourselves
Wednesday February 12: Anxiety: Calming Ourselves In the Midst of It All
Wednesday February 19: Depression: Staying Awake on a Sleeping Planet
Wednesday February 26: Loneliness: The Existential and Personal Loneliness Inherent in Awakening Early

Never Dead Poets Society
John Keats (1795 – 1821), a poet, from the English Romantic Era was a main figure of the second generation of Romantic poets. He famously stated, "The poetry of the earth is never dead".
My name is Rose Fields, I'm 27 years old and from the small town of Pikeville, here in NC. I lacked stability in my childhood and supplemented with reading and writing. Falling in love with poetry at a young age, I turned to it to connect and express. In return poetry allowed me to channel my feelings and redirect them in a healthy way. Poetry is a peaceful outlet for self-expression, in addition to, the processing of emotions. I often say, to write a poem is to have a conversation with one's intrinsic, otherwise-neglected self. I wanted to create a safe place for young people to connect with one another and process through the more convoluted aspects of life. Thus, the Never Dead Poets Society was born! Whether you are a writer, a listener, or a reader, you are welcome to come join this group!
A typical meeting consists of reading, writing, and creating a prompt for the future meeting. This keeps all involved writing and processing through a collection of topics decided on and discussed throughout each meeting. Our group is not full of writers by trade, though we do have a few accomplished writers in the group. I, myself am a science major…if that helps you to feel more comfortable with your background. Everyone has the ability to write poetry! Although this group is centered on the collaborative experiences of young adults, anyone can come and participate! Please feel free to contact me with the email provided below with any further questions. Email: charleyfields.chapelhill@gmail.com
We are open during the day as a coffee & tea house/cafe. At nights, we transform into a gathering spot for connections, inspiration and information by offering life-affirming presentations on weekdays and heart-centered live music or films on some Fridays and Saturdays.
From 7-8:30pm presentations most week nights.
We stop serving at 6:50 on presentation nights.
