Q: Using split-apply-combine to remove some values with a customized function and combine what's left So this isn't the dataset I need to work with but it's a template for a huge one I'm working with (~1.8 million data points) for a cancer research project, so I figured if I could get this to work with a smaller one, then I can adapt it for my large one! So as a sample, let's say I have the following data set:
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({
   'cond': ['A', 'A', 'A', 'A', 'A', 'A', 'A', 'A', 'A', 'B', 'B','B', 'B', 'B', 'B', 'B','B','B'],
   'Array':  ['S', 'S', 'TT', 'TT','S', 'S', 'TT', 'TT','S', 'S', 'TT', 'TT','S', 'S', 'TT', 'TT','SS','TT'],
   'X':  [1, 2, 3, 1, 2 , 3, 4, 7.3, 5.1, 3.2, 1.4, 5.5, 9.9, 3.2, 1.1, 3.3, 1.2, 5.4],
   'Y':  [3.1, 2.2, 2.1, 1.2,  2.4, 1.2, 1.5, 1.33, 1.5, 1.6, 1.4, 1.3, 0.9, 0.78, 1.2, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0],
   'Marker':  [2.0, 1.2, 1.2, 2.01, 2.55, 2.05, 1.66, 3.2, 3.21, 3.04, 8.01, 9.1, 7.06, 8.1, 7.9, 5.12, 5.23, 5.15],
   'Area': [3.0, 2.0, 2.88, 1.33,  2.44, 1.25, 1.53, 1.0, 0.156, 2.0, 2.4, 6.3, 6.9, 9.78, 10.2, 15.0, 16.0, 19.0]
})
print(df)

This produces an output that looks like this:
   cond Array    X     Y  Marker    Area
0     A     S  1.0  3.10    2.00   3.000
1     A     S  2.0  2.20    1.20   2.000
2     A    TT  3.0  2.10    1.20   2.880
3     A    TT  1.0  1.20    2.01   1.330
4     A     S  2.0  2.40    2.55   2.440
5     A     S  3.0  1.20    2.05   1.250
6     A    TT  4.0  1.50    1.66   1.530
7     A    TT  7.3  1.33    3.20   1.000
8     A     S  5.1  1.50    3.21   0.156
9     B     S  3.2  1.60    3.04   2.000
10    B    TT  1.4  1.40    8.01   2.400
11    B    TT  5.5  1.30    9.10   6.300
12    B     S  9.9  0.90    7.06   6.900
13    B     S  3.2  0.78    8.10   9.780
14    B    TT  1.1  1.20    7.90  10.200
15    B    TT  3.3  4.00    5.12  15.000
16    B    SS  1.2  5.00    5.23  16.000
17    B    TT  5.4  6.00    5.15  19.000

Ok so now what I need to do is to split them based on two labels, "cond" and "Array". I did that using
g=df.groupby(['cond','Array'])['Marker']

This breaks it into 4 smaller sets split as the pairings A-S, A-TT, B-S, B-TT. Now I have a customized function to work with. This is part of the function and I'll explain how it works:
def num_to_delete(p,alpha,N):
    if p==0.950:
        if 1-alpha==0.90:
            if N<=60:
                m=1
            if 60<N<80:
                m=round(N/20-2)
            if 80<=N:
                m=2
        if 1-alpha==0.95:
            if N<=80:
                m=1
            if 80<N<=100:
                m=round(N/20 -3)
            if 100<N:
                m=2
    return m

Ok so the way it works is that I feed into it a "p" and "alpha" that I pick (the real function covers many more cases of p and alpha). The N that gets fed into it is the the number of elements of my smaller data set (in this case for A-S it's 5, for A-TT it's 4, etc.). So what I'm trying to have happen is that for each smaller data set, spit out a number of points to delete (in this example, the function will always give us 1, but I'm trying to code this with the function for application to a super large data set). Since it gives the number 1, then I want it to delete the 1 largest data point for that set, and tell me what the highest point is left.
So as an example, for the A-S coupling, I have 5 data points: 2.0, 1.2, 2.55, 2.05, and 3.21. Since there's 5 data points, my function tells me to delete 1 of them, so ignore the 3.21, and tell me what's the highest data point left which in this case is 2.55. I want to do this for each coupling, but in my real data set, I will have different numbers of elements so the function will tell me to delete a different number for each coupling.
My ultimate goal is to have a final table that looks like this:
   cond Array   NumDeleted p95/a05  p95/a10
0     A     S  1.0      2.55   2.55
1     A    TT  1.0      2.01   2.01
2     B     S  1.0      7.06   7.06
3     B    TT  1.0      8.01   8.01

For the larger set, the values in the last 2 columns will be different because in the large data set, there's a lot more difference in the number of values that will be deleted, and hence the remaining values will differ. I will eventually need to alter a second dataset based on the values I get for p95/a05 and p95/a10
Anyway, I'm sorry that was such a long explanation, but if anyone can help, that would be amazing! I'm hoping it's a rather simple thing to do since I've been stuck on this for over a week now.

A: EDIT: more general solution
First, it would help to make a closure to define your configurations. This is under the assumption that you will have more configurations in the future:
def create_num_to_delete(p, alpha):
    """Create a num_to_delete function given p and alpha."""
    def num_to_delete(N):
        if p == 0.950:
            if 1 - alpha == 0.90:
                if N <= 60:
                    m = 1
                if 60 < N < 80:
                    m = round(N/20 - 2)
                if 80 <= N:
                    m = 2
            if 1-alpha == 0.95:
                if N <= 80:
                    m = 1
                if 80 < N <= 100:
                    m = round(N/20 -3)
                if 100 < N:
                    m = 2
        return m

    return num_to_delete

You can then use this closure to define a dictionary of configurations:
configurations = {
    'p95/a05': create_num_to_delete(0.95, 0.05),
    'p95/a10': create_num_to_delete(0.95, 0.10),
}

Then, define a function that summarizes your data. This function should rely on your configuration so that it remains dynamic.
def summarize(x):
    # The syntax on the right-hand side is called list comprehension.
    # As you can probably guess, it's essentially a flattened for-loop that
    # produces a list. The syntax starting with "for" is your basic for loop
    # statement, and the syntax to the left of "for" is an expression that
    # that serves as the value of the resulting list for each iteration
    # of the loop.
    #
    # Here, we are looping through the "num_to_delete" functions we defined in
    # our `configurations` dictionary. And calling it in our group `x`.
    Ns = [num_to_delete(len(x)) for num_to_delete in configurations.values()]

    markers = x['Marker'].sort_values(ascending=False)

    highest_markers = []
    for N in Ns:
        if N == len(x):
            highest_markers.append(None)
        else:
            # Since we know that `markers` is already sorted in descending
            # order, all we need to get the highest remaining value is to get
            # the value in the *complete list* of values offset by the
            # the number of values that need to be deleted (this is `N`).
            #
            # Since sequences are 0-indexed, simply indexing by `N` is enough.
            # For example, if `N` is 1, indexing by `N` would give us
            # the marker value *indexed by* 1, which is,
            # in a 0-sequenced index, simply the second value.
            highest_markers.append(markers.iloc[N])

    # Returning a list from an applied groupby function translates into
    # a DataFrame which the series index as the columns and the series values
    # as the row values. Index in this case is just the list of configuration
    # names we have in the `configurations` dictionary.
    return pd.Series(highest_markers, index=list(configurations.keys()))

Lastly, apply the function to your data set and reset the index. This keeps cond and Array as columns:
grouped = df.groupby(['cond', 'Array'])
grouped.apply(summarize).reset_index()

Output is:
    cond    Array   p95/a05 p95/a10
0   A   S   2.55    2.55
1   A   TT  2.01    2.01
2   B   S   7.06    7.06
3   B   SS  NaN NaN
4   B   TT  8.01    8.01

Hope this helps.

Q: IAM user can only access S3 bucket when bucket is set to public I've been trying to test my first lambda function, however I'm only able to test it successfully when the bucket policies are set to public. I would like to provide access to my IAM user only, but whenever I try to do so, I receive an Access Denied error. I confirm that the IAM user does have Administrator Access.
Below is the relevant snippet from the bucket policy where I set the Principal to my IAM user's ARN, which results in the "Access Denied" error:
"Principal": {
     "AWS": "arn:aws:iam::12_DIGIT_USER_ID:user/adminuser"
}

Setting the Principal to public, like below, allows the lambda to run successfully:
"Principal": {
     "AWS": "*"
}

Clearly I want to avoid having a public bucket, and the solution according every blog post and StackOverflow question seems to be to set the bucket policy similar to the first code snippet above, but I just absolutely cannot figure out why it's not working for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A: Problem is you are confusing between user and resource permissions.
You just need to set Resource to Resource permissions as a policy, assign it to Role with trusted relationship with lambda.amazonaws.com and then assign that Role to Lambda function.

Hope it helps.

A: When granting permission to access resources in Amazon S3:

*

*If you wish to grant public access, use a Bucket Policy on the bucket itself

*If you wish to grant permissions to specific users or groups of users, then add the permissions directly to the User/Group within IAM (no principal required)


I'm gearing up for my first MLWM game. I bought the hard copy version and would like printable character sheets. Has anyone made those or other lists of key game things.
Actually, I don't think they are. Ben Morgan designed the player sheet, and before now I've just been linking people to the sheet archive on his website. Except his site seems to be down.
I've loaded the sheet here.
Also, Michael S. Miller has a very helpful version of the "formulae" that includes the results of success and the consequences of failure. I used to have a link for that too. Michael?
Got the player and formula sheets. Thanks. Now all I need is to collect many, many d4s. I'm thinking instead of colors, the oversized dice would give good emphasis to intimacy, desperation, and sincerity.
I did this, too. All I can get are the book covers.

From Amazing to Bullsh*t : Ibrahimovic on Man United
by Subhadip Ghosh/ February 20, 2019/ Editor's Choice, news/ No Comments/
Source : Sportsrush.com
Zlatan Ibrahimovic took a lot of heat when he was at Manchester United . He says that he turned his "Haters" into "Fans" . But it took 3 months because he was "Bulsh*t" at Manchester United.
Ibrahimovic joined LA Galaxy last march leaving Man United. He was at United for almost 2 years.
Ibrahimovis's time at Old Trafford was not good at all. Because the club couldn't regain its glory in his years of stay. But, he did win the EFL CUP in 2017. He also tool United to the Quater-Finals of the Europa League until he was injured. Ibra got a serious knee injury against Anderlecht at Europa League.

Besides playing for Inter , Barcelona and Juventus . The Self-made star found the net 29 times in 53 appearances in all competitions for United .
Ibrahimoviz told to the Club's Official Website :
I worked, tried to do my thing, still adapt to the team, adapt to the coach's philosophy and to the club, and I had no issues with those things because I'm professional.
I like to work, I take instructions, at the same time I like to do my things that I think – I know – I'm good at, and I try to help the team in the best way.
Still, everybody was talking, thinking they knew everything. My challenge was, at the age I was, coming to England, where I had years of everybody was saying I wasn't good enough and all this bullsh*t.
I like those things because they trigger me. They give me adrenaline. After three months, all of them were eating their own words. I needed new haters because all the old ones became my new fans!

The 37-year-old developed a strong mutual admiration with the club's fans. He was remembering the great moment when the fans started to sing his name.
He added :
I don't need to lick ass, but the fans were just amazing"
Most importantly , he said that :
"I remember my first game in the Premier League at Bournemouth, I scored and the fans were singing my song for 45 minutes. After 20 minutes I was like: guys, please, my game is not really on top right now. Wait until I'm on top, wait and see!"
Inside, I was like: f*ck, this is fantastic! They really appreciated what I did and they were thankful. That is the best credit a player can get because when you do something and you get that response from the fans, it's amazing. They are 50 per cent of everything we do. Imagine if you played in empty stadiums… you would not play. In Old Trafford it was always full. Always. In every away game they always showed up, always supported.

First season at United was fantastic : Ibrahimovic
But he still remembers his days of conquering United fondly. He added :
"That whole first season at United was fantastic. Everything was. I really enjoyed it. The family was happy, everybody was happy, the club took care of me and made it really easy for me. I just needed to turn up, put on my football boots and perform,"
"When I was a boy, I had a vision of what I wanted in my life. You never know what will happen, but I had my dreams, I had my will and my life became what it became. A lot of things have proven that if you want it, you will make it. You will achieve it. It's all up to you. If you don't work for it, you will not reach your objective. It's my mentality. I like that pressure because I like to say before that I'll do it because I really believe in it. I know I can do it."
"When I came to United and I said I would conquer England, people were laughing at me."
"I wasn't joking."

My Extended Bibliography for Ego Is The Enemy and How I Screwed It Up
During the writing of Ego is the Enemy, I happened to read Jon Ronson's amazing book So You've Been Publicly Shamed. My favorite part wasn't the book (though the book is great), I loved the book's annotated bibliography. Ronson took the time to explain what he liked about each source and how he used it. I wrote a note (literally, a notecard) to myself that said "Do this on your next book" and then, when I came to the end of writing Ego, I did.
I took the time to do that instead of just listing my sources because I loved all the books that went into making Ego is the Enemy. In fact, I think a lot of them are better than anything I ever have or ever will write. I also know that my own life would be radically different if it wasn't for authors taking the time to recommend and acknowledge their sources. For a long time, my rule as a young reader was: Try to read one book mentioned in every book that you read. This philosophy took me down countless rabbit holes and introduced me to fascinating topics and people.
When I look at most bibliographies, I am usually left wanting to know more. What did the author like about the book? What didn't they like about it? How did they find it? What other interesting things had they wished they'd been able to include but couldn't? What was their favorite part? I want to know everything.
To me, there's also not a big difference between a bibliography and an Acknowledgements section either. They are both about citing sources of value—and often doing so is of great use to the reader. Hell, I found my agent through the acknowledgements of a book by Andrew Keen. If an author was being honest, the acknowledgements section would be pages and pages long. So many people and so many things go into making a book. A wife gets one sentence. An agent gets a few words. The publisher gets a mention. And then we're done. Hardcore fans want to know more. So do aspiring writers. The people who contributed to a book love seeing their name in print. Due to space concerns, most contributions go unthanked.
Anyway, that's what I set out to rectify at the end of Ego is the Enemy. I went as far as thanking food I ate during certain chapters, admitting the fact that I found Neil deGrasse Tyson paraphrasing a John Wheeler quote in an airplane magazine, and even pointed out extra stuff, like a Ta-Nehisi Coates quote, that I read after I'd already finished my chapter on Jackie Robinson. All sorts of stuff. I've always believed that any wisdom or insight in my books can and should be attributed to people smarter than me—that I am just a conduit or a collector. This was the first acknowledgments section in any of my books that felt truly complete.
The only problem is that the bibliography I wrote was something like 5,000 words and added 17 pages to an already longer than intended book. The publisher told me I would have to choose between it and substantial edits to the book. What was I going to do?
I decided I would cut it from the book, replace it with a standard 'selected' bibliography and then give away my fuller works cited online to all the readers who wanted it. I certainly wasn't going to scrap all the time and energy I'd put into making it. The upside was that by making it digital, I could make the links clickable, the sources searchable and I could even update it if I felt like anything had been left out. Plus it's a good way to interact with readers and capture email addresses. I did something similar with Growth Hacker Marketing and have talked with thousands and thousand of people as a result.
This is the exact language I put at the end of the book announcing my plan.
For most people, bibliographies are boring. For those of us who love to read, they can be the best part of an entire book. As one of those people, I have prepared for you—my bookloving reader—a full guide to every single book and source I used in this study of ego. I wanted to show you not just which books deserved citation but what I got out of them, and which ones I strongly recommend you read next. In doing this, I got so carried away that my publisher informed me what I had prepared was too big to in the book. So I'd like to send it to you directly—in fully clickable and searchable form.
If you'd like these recommendations, all you have to do is email [email protected] or visit EgoIsTheEnemy/books.
And here's where the story takes a twist. Because I really screwed up (as you can partly see already).
In the bustle of the launch, I somehow lost control of [email protected]—the address I was asking people to use. I'm positive I registered it, but after dozens of emails to some of my contacts at Google, trying every single password and secret question I could think of and asking everyone who worked for me in the last year whether they knew how to login, I'm not sure of anything anymore. I'm writing this post to admit my biggest screwup as author to date: The first 5-10,000 copies of my book offer a bonus with a non-working email address (I'm not the only one who screwed up: Penguin didn't fix an error in the domain name listed either, though that hardly makes anything better). I can console myself by saying that if 10% of those 5,000 people email, it's not a huge number of people effected and the hardcore fans will reach out to me directly, but it's still not something I wished had happened.
At the same time, I'm also proud of how I handled it. I didn't freak out. I didn't yell—at the publisher for their mistake or for Google for their incredibly frustrating customer service. I focused on solutions instead. We managed to fix it in the audiobook and the ebook in time. It's also been addressed in subsequent printings. I worked the Google angle until it turned out to be a dead end. And then I moved on to focus on things that were in my control (like writing this post for example). Still, it's a mistake. I don't feel good about it. I also didn't make it worse either.
That being said, I still am really excited for people to check this thing out and for all the people and books and ideas that went into making Ego is the Enemy to get their due. If you're reading this post because you're trying to figure out why the hell no one at [email protected] is responding, I'm sorry. Just resend your email to [email protected] or you can just go here and fill out this form.

Announcing: Ego Is The Enemy & How You Can Get Involved
This is a somewhat unusual post. It is not the full announcement for my next book, Ego Is The Enemy (B&N)(UK), but is the first time I'm talking about it.
Ego Is The Enemy takes the thinking in The Obstacle Is The Way, and applies it to our greatest internal obstacle—our own ego. If The Obstacle Is The Way was a philosophical approach to dealing with the difficulties we face in life, Ego Is The Enemy is a philosophical exploration of difficulties we create for ourselves in life. Early in our careers, ego impedes learning and the cultivation of talent. With success, ego can blind us to our faults and sow future problems. In failure, ego magnifies each blow and makes recovery more difficult. At every stage, ego holds us back.
The book draws on a vast array of stories and examples, from literature to philosophy to history. Using the stories of people like William T. Sherman, Katharine Graham, Bill Belichick, and Eleanor Roosevelt, all of whom reached the highest levels of power and success by conquering their own egos. It also tells a bit of my own story over the last two years, and the disastrous effects of ego on the companies I've helped build as well as in my own personal life.
Thanks to your support, my last book was incredibly well received, it even unexpectedly found a strong footing with professional athletes. It couldn't have happened without you. As I did last time, I wanted to reach out to you, my readers, for help and ideas in introducing this book to communities and potential audiences. If you have a podcast, have a friend who does, run a big blog, or can think of an influencer who would love this book, let me know in the form below. I'm open to anything, of course, but please, let's think in terms of ROI for its June 14 release date.
If you have ideas, suggestions or better, have access to a large audience of your own, might want to order in bulk in exchange for speaking or consulting, or want to cover the book, I want to hear from you. Filling out the form below will give me an idea of how you can help with the launch.
*Note: Don't worry, I'll still be doing all my normal marketing stuff, including a pre-order campaign like last time. This is just a way to hear from people who might have marketing/media relationships that will help the book. To get updates about Ego Is The Enemy, sign up for my reading newsletter.

Approx Tuesday 26th July 2016.
In their life time Hazrth sahib (R.A) travelled to other countries propagating the Ajmer Sufi Message of: "Hazrath Khwaja Moinuddin Chishty (R.A)". Hazrth Sahib (R.A) gave his Seven son's Physical & Theoretical Tasawwuf (Mysticism) education during their upbringing.

The man's heart was pounding as he wondered how he could escape from this. Then he noticed a honeycomb in front of him which had delicious honey dripping from it. He stuck his finger into the honey and put it inside his mouth. It was delicious and for a moment he forgot about the lion, the snake and the two mice chewing at the rope.
Imam Ghazali explained that the lion is like the angel of death which is always looming above us. The snake was like his grave which all humans will face. The black mouse and white mouse were like the day and night which are always nibbling at our life (the rope). The honey was like this dunya (World) which with its momentary sweetness makes us forget the death and the eternal life.

Q: RecyclerView with Glide images needs to scroll along with the activity I have one activity that includes some textviews and one recyclerView that has images displayed with Glide. I had a problem that recyclerview has its own scroller that I don't need.
Then I added this: android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false" to RecyclerView xml
according to RecyclerView need to scroll along the activity
and now recyclerview is scrolling along with activity, but now there is another problem. Not all images are visible. It looks like that RecyclerView does not know what is the size of all images inside it while it is inflating. I am using Glide for displaying images, and image item has fixed size 250dp.
If I remove nestedScrollingEnabled attribute, then all images are visible but I need to scroll inside that recyclerView.
this is my recyclerview

        .priority(Priority.HIGH);

Update:
to have smooth scroll please use this inside recyclerview
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false"
android:isScrollContainer="false"

A: Update:
Change ScrollView to android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView, and remove android:nestedScrollingEnabled attribute. NestedScrollView is layout that can contains scrollable children.

One option is change centerCrop() to fitCenter().
RequestOptions options = new RequestOptions()
    .fitCenter()

Kelley O'Hara on the field in February.
Under Armour's new tech is designed with performance in mind.
The Baltimore-based company unveiled its Rush line — which utilizes infrared technology to conserve athletes' energy — with a launch yesterday in Los Angeles. The event got star power in the forms of two UA ambassadors: Golden State Warrior Steph Curry and U.S. women's soccer talent Kelley O'Hara.
(L-R): Kelley O'Hara, Steph Curry and Cari Champion.
(L-R): Cari Champion, Steph Curry, Kelley O'Hara and director Gotham Chopra.
The new performance apparel line is designed for improved performance and energy return, making it an ideal choice for athletes on the field or court.
The soccer star is currently injured and recently was fitted for orthotic shoes, something she hasn't worn during her gold-medal-winning career. The 30-year-old dished on the pay inequality that exists in her sport.
Along with the panel director Gotham Chopra unveiled UA's new documentary, "Margin of Victory," featuring the brand's ambassadors. The athletes discussed training and UA Rush performance technology. UA Rush will be go to retail on April 11, and the film will release in May.
The sportswear giant also has a spring '19 collection out with Palm Angels, the skate-inspired luxury label founded by Moncler art director Francesco Ragazzi. The capsule includes pieces designed for recovering athletes and entertainers alike, making use of UA's tech and Palm Angels' distinct California-cool vibe.
Check out the behind-the-scenes action at Steph Curry's cover shoot with FN below.

What's Wrong with High Fructose Corn Syrup?
Health / Nutrition / What's Wrong with High Fructose Corn Syrup?
Eric Armstrong 10 Apr 2017 Nutrition
High Fructose Corn Syrup was introduced into the American Food Supply in the 1970's, at roughly the same time as partially hydrogenated oils. Since then, we've had epidemic levels of obesity, the highest rates of disease, and the lowest life expectancy of any industrialized nation. Those facts are not a coincidence.

What About Artificial Sweeteners?
Are There Natural Alternatives?
Politicians love to talk about how we have "the best health care system in the world". If that's true, it's because we need it — and because many families spend every last dollar they have fighting the ravages of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and autoimmune illnesses. In many cases, people spend the last several years fighting to stay alive — but not really living. That is not the way that things should be.
In What's Wrong with Partially Hydrogenated Oils?, I wrote about the cellular effects of trans fats, and showed how they act as metabolic poisons. I started the TreeLight website, in fact, precisely to publish that article. That was in 1998. Because it made the connection between trans fats and disease in clear, understandable terms, and because people were hungry for information, that article rose to the top of the Google search rankings, and stayed there for some 10 years. This article describes the impact of the second major cause of American disease and obesity: high fructose corn syrup. (For other problems, see What's Wrong with American Foods?)
The science of trans fats has been known for decades — since the 50's, in fact. So there is no excuse for the fact that American corporations put it into the food supply in the 70's. Nor is there any excuse for putting high fructose corn syrup into the American food supply — a substance whose science has a similarly long history. It is no excuse that the FDA has been so starved of funding by tax loopholes that now is now virtually a non-entity, funded by the very corporations it is supposed to regulate. It is no excuse that partially hydrogenated oils are cheaper than butter, and high fructose corn syrup is cheaper than sugar. Profit is no excuse for human misery. Otherwise, theft and fraud would be legal.
In short, it is clear that both partially hydrogenated oils and high fructose corn syrup should be illegal. They are that deadly. The problem is, they do not kill quickly. If they did, there would be an uproar. Even businesses would be in an uproar — because about the only true crime you can commit in corporate America is killing customers quickly. Unfortunately, killing people slowly and causing untold suffering in the process is not a real crime, in corporate eyes — because such people are a profit center every step of the way.
And if legislators are asleep at the switch, who can blame them. We have a political system dominated by the media. Without money, politicians get nowhere. Corporate conglomerations have most of the money in the world. They pay the politicians to listen. Without it, politicians have no future, so they listen. Meanwhile, those conglomerates pay lobbyists — 90,000 of them. We the people have several hundred "representatives" in Congress, and corporations have 90,000 lobbyists. Lobbyists write 90% of the legislation that our representatives vote on. So who is better represented?
So if the FDA isn't policing the food supply and legislators aren't protecting it, how do you stay healthy? The answer is "personal responsibility". Now, I don't happen to believe that you are personally responsible if someone punches you in the nose. On the contrary, I believe that the person throwing the punch is more than a little responsible. Personal responsibility is an important principle, of the course, but the corporate shills who preach that doctrine use it to evade corporate responsibility. And because politicians are taking their money, they have been remarkably effective at it — so that fact is, they have created a world in which "personal responsibility" is the law of the land, like it or not.
Valued correspondent Nick Eddy reports that the predecessor of the FDA was the Bureau of Chemistry, which safeguarded the food supply solely on behalf of American Citizens. The FDA was formed at the insistence of food manufacturing corporations, who argued that they "lacked a voice". That argument has clearly been exposed as sheer folly. Today, food manufacturers not only have a voice, they provide the funding (or lack of it) so the FDA limps along, filled with caring people who lack the wherewithal to do their job properly.
Someday, I would like us to improve the election process so that we get a government which, as a whole, is truly working for the good of the people. I've written up the things we need to do in Political Reforms America NEEDs. Until then, you and I need to arm ourselves with knowledge. We need to inform ourselves and inform our friends. We need to give talks whenever and wherever we can. We need to skim labels for the keywords that mean "poison", and avoid the fast foods that contain those ingredients. We need to boycott foods that cause problems. We need to raise awareness.
If we do that, we can restore American health, and reduce America's waistline. If we don't, we and the people we know will pay the price. It's a lot to ask, I know. By rights, life should be easier than that. We should be able to walk into a grocery store or fast food restaurant, confident that anything we eat will not subtract from our prospects for longevity and a life that is free of disease. But until that day, we have to read labels.
I once met a woman in a checkout line who said she was "ashamed to say that she never read labels". I told that she should not be ashamed. It is the people who put those ingredients into the food supply that should be ashamed. But until they acquire a minimal sense of ethics, and until government regulations catch up to science and get enforced, the only thing you can do is avoid the products that hurt you, and hope that corporations get the message.
That process does work. Some would claim that is the nature of capitalism, and that it represents capitalism "at its best". I would claim that the time lag built into that system is immensely destructive. How many hundreds of thousands have suffered and died in the last 30 years? Or is it millions, by now? That's capitalism working? I don't think so. We have laws against fraud and theft, to help ensure that as people work for a profit, they are doing so in ways that benefit society. That is when capitalism works.
High Fructose Corn Syrup is a blend of fructose and glucose. (Fructose makes up anywhere from 55% to 80% of the blend.) Those high levels have fructose have four major problems:
It has been genetically modified
It makes you fat
It interferes with thyroid function
It's in nearly everything
Glucose has none of the problems associated with fructose. Starch molecules break down into glucose. Cane sugar is sucrose, which breaks down into an a 50-50 blend of fructose and glucose. But high fructose corn syrup is a blend of from anywhere between 55% and 80% fructose, with the remainder glucose. It is those high levels of fructose, unaccompanied by vitamins, minerals, fiber, or enzymes, which cause the damage.
Virtually all non-organic corn, soy, and wheat grown in the United States has been genetically modified.
Is it safe for humans? We don't really know. There have been precisely no long term studies. How could there be? It hasn't been around that long.
When you consider that it could take as long as 30 or 40 years for health problems to show up, you realize that we are the long-term experiment that will find out if it is safe. Personally, I decline to participate, thank you very much. The European Union has declined to participate, too. They've banned imports of corn, soy, and wheat from the United States.
So its the American people who are the subject of the experiment. And everyone who doesn't devote themselves to a study of health and nutrition is at risk.
Obviously, that situation is wrong. Why should everyone have to study the same subject to protect themselves? It's like asking everyone to become an expert on automobile mechanics to protect themselves from badly designed cars, and study aerodynamics to protect themselves from badly designed airplanes, and study…. Well, you get the idea. It's an idea that just doesn't scale. It may seem to work for one thing, but it breaks down quickly when you try to apply it as a general principle. And it's that lack of general applicability that exposes the flaw in the notion of "personal responsibility", as espoused by corporate apologists.
Refined sugar just naturally adds to your weight, because it consists of "empty calories"—carbohydrates your body converts to fat without any of the minerals or other nutrients your body needs, so you are continually hungry for more. We all know that empty calories are "bad". But high fructose corn syrup gives that term a whole new level of meaning.
High-fructose corn syrup is even more intensely sweetening that sugar. That's why it's so cheap. So it starts out with way more empty calories than you get with sugar. But that's not the worst part. Even though it tastes super sweet, it doesn't make you feel full. It bypasses the "saeity" mechanism that makes you feel satisfied — so you're always hungry for more. (Glucose does, but fructose doesn't, as related in Is fructose to blame for obesity?)
As reported in the San Francisco Chronicle, in an article entitled, Sugar coated: We're drowning in high fructose corn syrup:
Fructose does not appear to suppress the production of ghrelin, a hormone that increases hunger and appetite.
Your taste buds recognize things that are good for you. Primates love fruit, because fruit is sweet. Fruit is the only sweet thing that exists in primate's natural habitat. But when you eat fruit, you fill up on the fiber. There is a limit to how much you can eat at one sitting. (The fiber also slows the rate of digestion, so the sugar is absorbed at a rate your body can handle.)
But with high fructose corn syrup, there is no limit. You can guzzle sodas all day, and as soon as your empty your bladder, you can come back for more. It's no wonder that kids are so big these days. It's no wonder that baggy pants and sweatshirts are now fashionable — they hide the fat.
In addition, as explained in The Double Danger of High Fructose Corn Syrup:
Fructose is converted to fatty acids by the liver at a greater rate than is glucose.
It's metabolized by the liver, so it doesn't cause the pancreas to release insulin
Unlike other sugars, it doesn't increase the production of two hormones, insulin and leptin, that regulate food intake and energy expenditure
The thyroid is your "energy gland". When it's operating properly, you have lots of energy, you're active, and you burn fat. When it's not operating properly, you're sluggish, you lie around, you eat more in a vain attempt to get energy, and you put on fat.
Corn oil, like soybean oil, depresses the thyroid. High Fructose Corn Syrup does so as well. It is an open question whether its anti-thyroid effect results from the fact that it is a corn product, or because it contains high levels of fructose.
Ray Peat suggests that fructose raises cholesterol. Cholesterol is raised by lack of sunlight and by reduced thyroid activity. Fructose obviously doesn't interfere with sunlight, so it must raise cholesterol by depressing the thyroid. Whether it is the fructose directly, or whether it is some element in corn oil which is part of High Fructose Corn Syrup is open to question. (Peat doesn't provide sources, so it could be either one. For example, if studies were conducted with some other kind of high-fructose syrup, it's possible that there would be no effect on cholesterol.)
But whether it comes about as a result of the fructose content or because it's made from corn (or both), it's clear that high fructose corn syrup reduces thyroid function. It's immaterial whether it does so because it contains high levels of fructose or because it's derivative of corn oil. Either way, it makes you burn less fat and put on weight.
It's worth noting at this point that soybean oil is also used in nearly everything, these days. Since it interferes with thyroid function, it makes you fat. So it, along with HFCS and partial hydrogenation, pretty well accounts for the nation's obesity epidemic. (It is my belief that the trans fats in partially hydrogenated oils are stored by the body, but are not chemically active enough to be mobilized for energy later on. So, once stored, they tend to stick around forever.)
In Why High-Fructose Corn Syrup Causes Insulin Resistance, researchers not that the large amounts of fructose can cause the kind of liver damage typically seen in alcoholics — damage which results in insulin resistance, weight-gain and, eventually, Type-II ("adult onset") diabetes. (My thanks to Dr. Mercola for publishing this study, and many others.)
When you know what to look for, and you start reading labels, it's astonishing. High Fructose Corn Syrup is the sweetener of choice for nearly everything in the supermarket, from salad dressing to pastrami. That makes it really difficult to avoid. So I read labels carefully, and avoid American fast foods.
I don't recommend them. Every artificial sweetener I've seen so far is worse than the one it replaced:
Saccharine has a bad after-taste and a tendency to cause cancer.
Aspartame breaks down into formaldehyde. Remember that stinky stuff in biology lab that preserved all the specimens? That was formaldehyde. Want to drink it? I don't think so. Enough said.
Sucralose/Splenda is a chlorinated compound produced in a laboratory that has displayed evidence of toxicity.
Everyone of them represents yet another way that massive food corporations take your money with massive marketing campaigns designed to make you think you're doing something good for yourself.
Although artificial sweeteners have been something of a disaster, there are some recently-introduced natural sweeteners that appear to be pretty decent:
Stevia: an herbal sweetener (if you don't mind the aftertaste)
Lo Han (a sweetener made from fruit)
Xylitol (wood sugar)
So far, those sweeteners appear to be non-threatening, and even healthy. The best introduction I've found is a guide to healthy sweeteners entitled, Put some healthy sweetness in your life!
Fortunately, the Whole Foods chain has stores in my area. I get virtually all of my food there — and I still read the labels. I mostly get toilet paper and paper towels at the grocery store down the block. I drive several miles to get real food. I go about once a week, spent a couple of hundred dollars, and stock up for the week.
That's just the way it has to be, in today's world. It's what I have to do to stay healthy. When I think about the extra time it takes to shop there, and the extra money it costs, I fall back on a little slogan I developed to remind me of why:
I'd rather spend it here than in the hospital.
That's a slogan that has real meaning for me. When I was 11, I spent the next two years visiting my mother in the hospital. She was in and out, off and on. But I vividly recall the obligatory trips to visit. They weren't fun, because all there wasn't much to do besides talk. I didn't know it at the time, but she was dying of cancer. So she wan't able to be the fun person who used to do stuff with me.
That was a formative time in my life. I also recall a time when I was 8, and I started to see her exercising. That was something I had never seen before. Her diet started changing, too. Lots of grapefruit and bran. A few years later, she was in the hospital.
I didn't put it all together at the time, but somewhere in my unconscious, I made the connection. Those events produced a lifelong interest in fitness in nutrition. I began studying the subject in high school, and have been reading ever since. I've studied vitamins and minerals, amino acids, enzymes, anti-oxidants, and phytochemicals.
Finally, I got to fatty acids, and when I put 2 and 2 together I created the TreeLight Health site and posted a paper on partially hydrogenated oils. That was in 1998. Since then, I've continued my investigations (all in my spare time) and whenever I've put enough information together to have something useful to say, I've posted another article.
So for me, healthy living is a lifestyle choice. It's something I do because, internally, I have very little real choice. It takes time and effort to learn what I need to know and read labels, but it's necessary — because the billions the corporations spend to lobby our government means that our health interests are not adequately represented in the halls of government.
For more, see What's Wrong with Fructose?, which explains that the FDA does not regulate substances that produce chronic, long-term disease. They are concerned solely with things that produce acute disease. In other words, if it doesn't disable you immediately, it's not covered by the FDA's charter. In short: There are multiple hazardous substances in the American food supply are not covered by any regulations, whatever.

Every day you walk into class waiting for a few of those students to walk in. They sit, don't really make a noise, but they do make an impact. You can remember the names of the students who came before, and most likely wish you had a bigger impact on their learning. Perhaps, you were the one who could have an impact...unlike their other teachers.
I'm referring to the hibernating students. In Student Voice: The Instrument of Change, Russell Quaglia and Michael Corso refer to students in hibernation as, "Having neither a future dream nor the inspiration to make any effort in the present." Those students who often say, "What's the point?"
Often they enter the classroom without making much eye contact. If they could, they would most likely wear a hoody so they could slip the hood over their head and disappear from the classroom. It's the adolescent version of "Hide and Seek" only they do not want to be sought.
"Those in hibernation are stalled--they have neither a picture of where they want to go, nor the energy for doing much in the present. Such people lack a sense of purpose and rarely experience a sense of accomplishment in anything they do."
"In schools, we have all met the student who puts his head on the desk at the start of class, only to be poked awake by a friend. We have witnessed student idly texting under a desk. Hibernating students appear to have no interest in the present they are actually in or in what it might mean for their futures."
Let's face it, if you have any number of years of teaching experience you can probably name a handful of students who hibernated. They seemed like they had no direction, because they had no direction. The sad part is that we have seen those students in elementary, middle and high school.
Yes, even students in elementary school want to hibernate.
Truth be told, I hibernated in junior high school and the first two years of high school. I wore plain or dark clothing, and did not participate in class. After being retained in elementary school and struggling to make it through each grade, I went to school to see friends, and learning was something I did when I had to. I was not bored. I was lost.
Lacking direction and confidence, I sat in the back of the class and doodled on my paper. When the teacher began cold calling for student participation, I would sweat a little bit, and then just realized that whether I paid attention or not, I was going to get the answer wrong. Why devote the energy to listening in the first place? So I sat and hibernated.
Of course at the time I did not have Russ and Michael's research. I was a student who wanted very much to be left behind. And then, after a few years of high school I had two cross-country coaches that inspired me to do a bit more. They were role models for me, and I stopped hibernating as much.
My grades were still fairly poor but not as poor as they used to be. Although I graduated fourth from last in my class, I stopped hibernating the last two years of high school. As the years went on I did anything but hibernate. But reading Student Voice brought me back to those years.
"Think of those students who come to your classes with little to no facial expressions or excitement. Recall those students whose names you barely know. Some students in hibernation do a minimum of work so they can pass under the radar through your classes. These students can be quite easy to have as often they don't bother anyone."
So how do teachers get the students to come out of hibernation? Quaglia and Corso wrote, "Educators need to ensure that during a class period every student is asked a question or somehow engaged in learning."
Ask students regularly about their hopes and dreams.
Incorporate student interests in teaching. Even casual references to a hobby will engage students.
Don't allow students to sleepwalk through classes. Involve these students in making classes more engaging.
Ride the school bus at least twice a year to understand students' journeys.
Greet all students when they enter the classroom.
It sounds simple doesn't it? You may even be saying to yourself that you have tried all of these techniques. Try them again. You never know when that one interaction will be the one that sets them on the right course. It certainly worked for me, and all students should have that opportunity.

Q: Redirect of URL with parameters to URL without -- plus Wordpress I have rebuilt a website that used some custom php to serve up individual store pages with urls like this:
http://thedomain.com/storedetails.php?storeNum=1

The new site is powered by Wordpress, and each individual store will live in a named subdirectory, like this:
http://thedomain.com/stores/gothamcity

I have been trying solutions I have found on stackoverflow that all seem to be variations on this: 301 Redirect of old url with parameters to a path without parametes
Here's an example:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^storeNum=18$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/storedetails\.php$ http://www.thedomain.com/stores/gothamcity? [L,R=301]

But so far nothing works. I continue to get "page not found" 404 error pages in Wordpress.
My best guess is that something in Wordpress's part of the .htaccess is throwing this off? Here's what they include:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

Can anyone help?

A: This should work:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^storeNum=18$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .*
RewriteRule ^storedetails\.php http://www.thedomain.com/stores/gothamcity? [L,R=301]

RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

I suggest you use a RewriteMap though to map store numbers to names.


We previously announced a thorough update of the underlying engine in SurveyXacts analysis module. The purpose of this update has been to form the foundation of knowledge-sharing in the future in SurveyXact. Explained in short, we believe that knowledge-sharing of the future is about presenting the right results, to the right people, at the right time and in the right format. Meaning that reports of several hundred pages where the readers have to search for the relevant results themselves with the risk of "Information Overload", belongs in the past.
Knowledge-sharing of the future is accurate, safe and easy to decode. Simultaneously, it needs to be flexible and easy to work with while the process from data collection to the sharing of results should be as short as possible. And it has to look good. Therefore, it is only logical that knowledge-sharing is increasingly handled in a digital format in the form of interactive dashboards - even in cases concerning more traditional questionnaires. This is the future we work towards when developing analysis- and reporting features in SurveyXact.
Currently, a whole new type of graph called "Top 5 / Bottom 5" is a work in progress in SurveyXact. This graph provides the possibility of forming a quick overview of which variables scored the highest and the lowest in your survey. As usual, this can be filtered in the web reports so that individual departments can have the same overview of their local responses. We look forward to presenting the new graphs over the following weeks.
However, for now, it is the readability and the overall visual impression that has been improved. All graphs in SurveyXacts analysis module have been given a visual upgrade so that they appear nicer and are even easier to decode.
The new graphs are already implemented in SurveyXact so that all reports, created after June 11, 2018, uses the visual upgrades. Should you wish to use the new graphs in older surveys you can simply recreate the graphs and they will be updated with the new look. Reports created before June 11, 2018, will remain unchanged unless you actively alter them in the system.
Best regards from the SurveyXact team.

Q: 'int' object is not iterable in arrays with use height I'm having a problem with this code, I need to calculate the height of a certain number of people and after that:

*

*show the smallest and largest height of the group

*the average height of the women

*the percentage difference between the amount of men and women

When running the code, an error appears:
print('A menor e maior altura do grupo são: {} e {}'. format({min(altura_grupo)}, {max(altura_grupo)}))

TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable

sizegroup = int(input('Digite o tamanho do grupo:'))

altura_grupo = []
altura_h = []
altura_m = []
grupo_homens = []
grupo_mulheres = []

for num in range(sizegroup):
 sexo = input('Sexo (M | F):')
  altura_grupo = int(input('Digite a sua altura (em cm):'))
  if sexo in 'Mm':
   grupo_homens.append(sexo)
   altura_h.append(altura_grupo)
  else:
   grupo_mulheres.append(sexo)
   altura_m.append(altura_grupo)

print('A menor e maior altura do grupo são: {} e {}'. format({min(altura_grupo)}, {max(altura_grupo)}))
print('A média das alturas femininas é:', {sum(altura_m)/lens(grupo_mulheres)})
print('A quantidade de homens é {} e a diferença percentual com a quantidade de mulheres é de:{}'. format(lens(grupo_homens), (lens(grupo_homens)-lens(grupo_mulheres))*100))

When running, the code must:

*

*Receive the number of people in a group

*Enter gender and height and with this, present the smallest and largest height of people

*The average height among women

*The percentage difference between men and women

A: altura_grupo = int(input('Digite a sua altura (em cm):'))

is replacing the list with the input, not adding to the list. Use append() to add to a list.
altura_grupo.append(int(input('Digite a sua altura (em cm):')))

Then you will be able to get the minimum and maximum of the list.

Is it possible to reverse death for some lucky people? Just ask Joe Tiralosi of Brooklyn, New York, who began feeling sick one day driving in New York City. He made a smart move by heading to the emergency room of New York Presbyterian Hospital. It was there that he literally dropped dead. But talk about being in the right place at the right time.
A medical team worked on him for almost an hour–cooling his body to protect his brain cells, along with other vital organs, and giving him approximately 4,500 chest compressions as they took turns doing CPR. They brought him back to life.
Dr. Sam Parnia, who specializes in resuscitation research and is the author of "Erasing Death," calls it "astonishing" how far we've advanced medically to be able to bring people back after they've died. He says that new techniques, like cooling devices, give doctors the precious time they need to access the situation and figure out how to get the heart pumping again: "So, for example, if somebody were to suddenly collapse and die at home, what we could do is go into the freezer and take out our frozen peas, frozen vegetables, put them on the body, and try to do CPR at the same time, so we can slow down the rate by which they're getting brain damage." The odds of being revived may be small, but it does happen.
Good for You to the doctors and medical personnel at New York Presbyterian Hospital for the incredible way you saved Joe's life!
