We are thrilled to partner with the Professional Beauty Association (PBA) to promote all the talented artists who are finalists for the 2015 NAHAs (North American Hairstyling Awards), the most prestigious hair and beauty award in the country. We had the honor of interviewing friend and long time Bangstyle Artist, one of this year's finalists in the "Student Hairstylist of the Year" category, Dustin Villa . Check out our exclusive interview with Dustin and get the scoop on his idol and what he'd do if he were to take home the NAHA Award.
Coming from Tucson, there aren't very many hair trends circulating. I definitely wanted to create something chic, sleek, and unique for everyone to wear. The idea itself uprooted from the heart of downtown where I crossed the polished businessman with an on trend edge. A mix of icy silvers and deep cool grays with hard partings, to give it an overly trendy, yet well put together look. To me a collection should be diverse and at the same time, flow together. I feel like that's what I brought to life.
I'd have to say my favorite collection would be Eric Zamarripa's in the Men's Hairstylist of the year category. It's so 2020 and I'm loving it! We need more trend setters and risk takers here. I feel like that's exactly what he did. Beyond beautiful work!
Is there a trend you are loving right now? One you wish would go away already?
I'd have to say I'm loving all of these art filled hair and makeup looks. Many people are beginning to realize hair color isn't as scary, ad that makeup comes off. They are becoming more comfortable trying new things. Bold and edgy is what's happening and I LOVE IT. As far as what I dislike, Ombré's. I'd love to see a nice blend and not so much of a blocked out color.
I've had a lot of interest in Oribe! He is so creative with everything he's done and his imagination just spills out into his work and it shows. Plus, he has plenty of tattoos and amazing hair… so I'd love to be like him, lol. I also enjoy Guy Tang with his really out there personality and amazing talent. He can really turn out some hair color so effortlessly!
There isn't a time of day that I don't feel creative. I'm an artist, I make everything into something. If I'd have to choose I would say my imagination peaks while I'm driving (safely of course).
What makes for a successful shoot?
A successful shoot calls for plenty of time and room to play with different looks. I don't like being rushed because it literally needs to be the most perfect. I also need food and Matcha water so my creativeness can keep flowing.
My favorite part of styling is that I'm able to create all of these things in my mind, and if I really want to, I can put it on someone to wear. It's like making a dream come to life and that is so rewarding, especially to see how intrigued outsiders are with the creations I've made.
Oh my the things I'd do! There are so many ways I would love to celebrate. First of all I'd have to stop crying tears of joy and then I'd start with a full makeover, not only to spoil myself but to make sure I'm up to par with the title.
Next year I want to compete in the Haircolor category! I feel like that would be a great competition for me.
My biggest guilty pleasure is Reese's peanut butter cups! I can eat an unhealthy amount in one sitting, lol. I also obsess over changing my hair 24/7!
Be sure to Stalk Dustin Villa to see the rest of his inspiring hair art, and wish him luck at the upcoming awards!

When I use upload command in SQl AnyWhere 10 to export data from table which having Unicode character set like Arabic character set '^^^Arabic^كلقفظغمشسرئب'. After exporting into text file, it was 'كلقفظغمشسرئب^Arabic^^^'. It means it is reading from right to left and writing as it is.
While importing this file to SQL server, it was writing to table as 'كلقفظغمشسرئب^Arabic^^^'.
Do you mean the 'unload' command ?
How are you "reading" (viewing) the text file? SQL Anywhere does not reverse the order of the characters so the order of the characters in the database will be the order of the characters when unloaded to your text file? I.e. Perhaps it is your viewer that is switching the order of the characters?
Sorry it is unload command, not upload.
I am new to Sybase. Here my task is migrate the Sybase DB to MS SQL Server. One of the tables contains the candidate name field which is mix of English and Arabic Characters like '^^^Arabic^كلقفظغمشسرئب'.
I need to migrate that name field '^^^Arabic^كلقفظغمشسرئب' as it is into SQL server from Sybase 10.
I still suggest that it very likely to be precisely the same data in both places but you are using two different viewers (GUIs, editors, etc) that have different rules on how to display the mixed Arabic and English. There is absolutely no way that SA will reorder the bytes of the string and it is highly unlikely that any software would do that. Only software that displays bidirectional text makes those choices.

Indian government to post customs officers in consulates to check money laundering
#India News Global
CtoI News Desk Tuesday, December 3rd 2019
The Indian government has announced plans for posting customs sleuths in London, Hong Kong, Dubai and Brussels to regulate trade-based money laundering.
The officers will be posted as Consuls at the Consulate General of India in Dubai and Hong Kong and as First Secretary at the country's High Commissions in London and Brussels. Photo courtesy: Wikimedia
The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI), the lead agency to check customs frauds and smuggling in the nation, has started the process of selecting customs overseas intelligence network (COIN) officers, an Indian government statement said.
The officers will be posted as Consuls at the Consulate General of India in Dubai and Hong Kong and as First Secretary at the country's High Commissions in London and Brussels, the officials added.
Earlier this year, the government had created two COIN posts at the Indian Embassy in Beijing and in the Consulate General of India in Guangzhou.
COIN officers' responsibilities include passing on intelligence gathered from their posting stations overseas to help Indian intelligence agencies - mainly the DRI - check financial offences, the statement said, with COIN officers having been posted in several countries, including Nepal, Singapore and the US among others.
The selection process will involve concurrence by the Ministry of External Affairs and final approval by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-headed Appointments Committee of the Cabinet.
Those having experience in DRI, Enforcement Directorate (ED), Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and customs (preventive) charge, involving intelligence gathering and investigation, will be considered for the posting.

Another Day in the Life of post today! Want to know why I love these? We get to see how different our lives as moms can be, how much we can relate to another mom going through similar struggles and stages, and how fun it is to see the daily lives of others. I desire to bring community among moms, a job which can often feel lonely and overwhelming. Saying that, if you read a 'Day in the Life of' post from one of the writers joining us here that inspires you, encourages you, or lifts you up - please reach out to them! They will love it, you will love it...it will be worth it!
Today we have Melissa Best joining us! Mel is from my own city of Hamilton. We met in University and recently reconnected because of that common factor...kids. She is incredibly open, honest, and loving - which you can see especially from her Instagram account found at A Glass of Melk.
Melissa is one of many creative talents! She shares beautiful images of her life and her family on her Instagram account, she blogs at A Glass of Melk, and she creates embroidered art and more, which you can find at Little Nest Embroidery. Check her out!
Hello friends! My name is Melissa Best and I'm honoured to share with you today a window into what a random day in my life looks like. I live in Hamilton, Ontario with my husband Dan, our 2.5 year old Theodore, and am 31 weeks pregnant with our rainbow baby who we've already named Joanie. I would describe myself as thrifty, creative, and social, and have been on a mission since getting pregnant with Theodore to slow down, simplify, and try to do things with intention to build deep relationships with one another in our home, and with friends and family around us. I am a birth and postpartum doula which makes my schedule kind of random, and I don't work typical hours.
7 am we wake to the sound of Theodore in his room shouting with excitement"the sun, it's awake! The sun is awake!" (he's referencing our new grow clock that tells him when its okay to get out of bed) My husband Dan gets up and takes him downstairs to play and they have breakfast together while I sleep for another hour.
8 am I get up and join the boys downstairs, and spend some quality time together before Dan heads to work at 8:30.
We share a car, so if we plan in advance, he will bus to work so I can have the car to do errands or see friends in the morning. In my "pre-mom" life, I loved going out for coffee at coffee shops, so this is something I've tried to hold onto with friends, except we host each other in our houses with homemade coffee instead. With toddlers in tow, I find our visits to be much more engaging when there is either toys for the kids to play with or cough cough Paw Patrol on TV.
By 11:30 I try to get home, and have Theodore help me make something for lunch. He loves helping in the kitchen, and usually lunch is something simple like grilled cheese and soup, or macaroni. I try to bake with him once a week, or make something like homemade applesauce as these are some of my favourite memories from my childhood. We always make a bigger mess of the kitchen and flour ends up everywhere but the payoff is worth it.
12:30 we head upstairs to his room, read some books together, and I stay to cuddle for a few minutes and rub his back before I leave. Then, depending on how I'm feeling, since this pregnancy, I try to nap when he naps, or on alternating days, I do some of my own nesting activities like sewing baby clothes or being creative somehow. I always find it tough to choose between a)housework b)creative nesting c)doula work or d)napping. I've learned to always prioritize naps, and if I'm not feeling like I need one, then I jump into the other things!
3:00 Theodore wakes up again with the excitement of the sun coming up, and we have 2 hours before Dan comes home for dinner. You'd think in those 2 hours we'd be productive and it would be the perfect time to get a casserole in the oven, but I usually don't think about what's for dinner until about 4:45. Meal planning is NOT my strong suit, and at 4:45 I'm often struggling to either defrost a hunk of meat from the freezer or look at the random assortment of leftovers in the fridge and wonder about what they'd taste like scrambled together in the frying pan.
5:00 we pray and Theodore lists off the things he's thankful for, and we eat our dinner scramble.
After dinner if the weather is nice we go for a walk around the Bayfront by our house, or play a game together before Theodore goes to bed at 7:30. Dan and I take turns putting him to bed, and the other starts cleanup of the main floor that looks like a tornado hit it at this point.
By 8:30 the house is clean, and we will usually sit down to read a book together for half an hour before turning on a show. We swap between parenting books, marriage books, and devotional books. This is not my strong suit either, it is Dan who has a love for reading and he usually initiates this.
9:00 We are ready for our show, and usually snack on either "treat cereal" like Corn Pops or Cinnamon Toast Crunch, or Hummus with Tortilla chips. Every once in awhile through this pregnancy I basically feel ready for another meal around bedtime, so I'll make a full out pan of nachos for myself, or grilled cheese, etc etc.
And then around 4:00 am I wake up from pregnancy insomnia, and I just lie in the bed for awhile trying to convince my body it's time to sleep. I end up coming downstairs for another snack, and reading, browsing through Instagram, or online shopping (most of my Etsy purchases happen at this time of the morning).
So that's a random day in my life. Thanks for reading along, feel free to pop by my social media channels and introduce yourself!

CNRP acting president and lawmaker Kem Sokha is wanted for questioning by the court for his involvement in a lawsuit launched by a woman believed to be his mistress. He has twice refused to appear in court and is now hiding at the CNRP headquarters after the police tried to arrest him in late May.
Several opposition lawmakers, members and supports have also been arrested in recent months and the CNRP has reacted by boycotting the parliament.
During his trip to Cambodia , Minister Muller had bilateral meetings with Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen, Acting President of the CNRP Kem Sokha, and Vice Chairman of the Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC) Chin Bun Sean.
According to another CNRP lawmaker, Son Chhay, the opposition party also sent a letter to King Norodom Sihamoni on June 15 asking him to act as an arbitrator to settle the political tensions between the CNRP and the CPP.-VNA

Woman Shares Heartbreaking Experience with Her Sister's Schizophrenia: 'We Were All Fearing For Our Lives'
Featured image via Shutterstock and does not show Kait Leddy. Photo for representational purposes only.
Kyleigh Leddy grew up near the Atlantic shore in Marblehead, Massachusetts, with her big sister Kait Leddy. Kait was anyone's 'dream' big sister. She marched around in rainbow boots and used her imagination to turn ordinary objects into toys.
"I was her little dress-up doll, and she and her friends let me tag along to everything," Kyleigh, now 25, recalled during an interview with PEOPLE. "I idolized her. She was all I ever wanted to be."
When Kait entered her teenage years, she showed more teenage rebellion than usual, and Kyleigh's admiration turned into unease.
The uneasiness shifted to terror when Kait suffered a traumatic head injury at age 19. The sister she once knew turned into a stranger, violent one minute and then fragile the next.
Kait was diagnosed with schizophrenia, and suffered four years of rages, hallucinations, hospitalizations, and stays in rehab. Then, one night in January 2014, she walked to the Philadelphia Benjamin Franklin Bridge, disappearing in a presumed suicide.
"I [had] played out the worst-case scenarios…a stranger killing Kait in self-defense. Kait accidentally killing us," Kyleigh writes in her new memoir The Perfect Other.
At the time, Kyleigh was three days shy of her 17th birthday. She has now devoted her life to understanding what happened to her sister.
"We never recovered her body," Kyleigh says, "never had the chance to have a funeral."
Looking back, Kyleigh says the first signs of trouble were when Kait started to get into fistfights at school. "It wasn't violent, more like interpersonal conflicts," Kyleigh says. However, it was enough to cause the family to move to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where Kait started to see a child psychologist.
When Kait entered high school, she started skipping school, smoking and drinking. Her mood became more erratic, and in 2007 she attacked their mother during one of Kyleigh's sleepovers.
At age 17, Kait was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).
"What's so hard about mental illness is distinguishing between what's personality, what's hormones, and what's something serious," Kyleigh explained.
Then in October 2010, Kait was on a pair of steps when a friend fell into her for an exaggerated hug. Kait lost her balance and smacked her head on the concrete. "That was the breaking point," Kyleigh says.
Kait was in the ICU for three days, and when she woke up, the hallucinations and paranoia began.
"We were all fearing for our lives," Kyleigh says. "Anything could set her off."
One month after her fall, Kait was diagnosed with schizophrenia.
Kyleigh dedicated her life to studying abnormal psychology and neuroscience. She volunteered at a homeless shelter and a group home for women with psychiatric disorders.
Her mother committed to helping families similar to their own. She does volunteer work with the Family-to-Family program of the National Alliance on Mental Illness and raises money for her local NAMI chapter, and Fairwinds, her local counseling center in Nantucket.
"I do think there's a part of us that's always going to be looking back and regretting and hoping that by making my sister's life stand for something else, by helping other families, we can kind of give meaning to the tragedy and bring her life a positive outcome," Kyleigh explained.
Kyleigh is finishing up her master's in social work from Columbia University and is focusing on training to be a therapist.
"We can do more research, find better therapies, better medication," she says. "And I can move forward, make my sister's life stand for something."

It's only a week and a half until Christmas - eeek! I'm a little bit late in posting a Christmas wishlist, but I've actually been feeling a little un-festive up until this weekend. I can't quite believe 2014 is almost at an end!
This fabulous ASOS faux fur has had me pining the past few weeks that I haven't been able to afford it. I treated myself to this Story of Lola rainbow pastel number a few weeks ago, so it's probably not completely justifiable to purchase a second multicoloured dreamcoat within a matter of weeks... or is it?
The guys at Daniel Wellington have already answered my Christmas wishes and treated me to their Classic Sheffield Watch in Rose Gold. I'm pretty smitten with it. Also, they're offering you guys a 15% off code with any orders made before Christmas. Make sure to order on or before the 17th December so your order arrives on time. All you have to do is pop the discount code HOLIDAYLEIGHTRAVERS in at the checkout.
When I saw the 'Crows Before Hoes' mug whilst browsing Urban Outfitters I got overly excited. Considering I have a penchant for novelty mugs and like the rest of the world, I am a Game of Thrones super fan, this would make my morning coffee a million times better.
Although I've never been one to jump on the beauty bandwagon, I've found myself coveting an Urban Decay Naked Palette. This could be due to the face I've started to apply my eyeshadow like a grown woman rather than a 12 year old girl dabbing her fingertips in the pot.
Santa, please take note of all of the above.
I'm in love with the faux fur coat and the beautiful lacy lingerie piece!

New York (United States) - Members of DESIGN 21 are invited to help promote linguistic diversity and multiculturalism by creating a poster for International Mother Language Day, 21 February. All entries will appear on the DESIGN 21 website and an official poster will be selected from the submissions.UNESCO will distribute the poster through its Member States and partners.
Languages are essential to the identity of groups and individuals and to their peaceful coexistence. However, within the space of a few generations, more than 50% of the 7,000 languages spoken in the world may disappear.
In November 1999, the General Conference of UNESCO proclaimed 21 February the International Mother Language Day. This Day has been observed every year since February 2000 to promote linguistic diversity and multilingualism.
In 2007, the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed 2008 'The International Year of Languages', choosing UNESCO as lead agency for the celebrations. UNESCO subsequently launched an awareness-raising campaign, whose slogan was "languages matter", to emphasise the importance of a wide variety of topics including linguistic and cultural diversity, literacy and mother-tongue-based education.
Only if multilingualism is fully accepted can all languages find their place in our globalised world. We must act now as a matter of urgency.
This competition calls for a poster that celebrates International Mother Language Day on 21 February based on the slogan "Languages matter!"
The slogan: Languages matter! / Les langues, ça compte !
View the poster from 2008 for reference.
UNESCO will distribute the poster through its Member States and partners. Winners will grant to UNESCO all reproduction rights related to the poster.

2017 2nd Team All-Conference Attack
2016 Honorable Mention All-Conference Attack


Psychologists are urging parents to tell the truth about Santa Claus or risk damaging their relationship with their children.
In an article published in the journal Lancet Psychiatry, two psychologists criticize parents who use Santa Claus as a tool to control their children's behavior.
Psychologist Professor Christopher Boyle and social scientist Dr. Kathy McKay also argue that the enduring myth risks leaving a child open to "abject disappointment" and undermining trust in parents when they discover the truth.
They also suggest that parents may be motivated by a selfish desire to re-live their own childhood, and not the wellbeing of their children.
McKay, who is also a clinical psychologist at the University of New England, Australia, takes a hardline on Father Christmas, as he is known in Britain and some former British colonies.
"The Santa myth is such an involved lie, such a long-lasting one, between parents and children, that if a relationship is vulnerable, this may be the final straw. If parents can lie so convincingly and over such a long time, what else can they lie about?
"There is potential for children to be harmed in these lies," she said.
Boyle, who was lead author of the report, says the morality of lying about Santa Claus must be questioned.
However, the University of Exeter psychologist admits that he will probably play along with the story if he has children of his own.
"I'm not planning to go through the streets of Exeter dropping leaflets through doors," he said.
However, he is critical of parents using the specter of Santa Claus and presents to influence behavior.
"Some parents use it as a tool of control when they're under a bit of pressure in the lead-up to Christmas.
"It's potentially not the best parenting method. You're talking about a mythical being deciding whether you're getting presents or not," he added.
The two authors conclude that adults may engage in the Santa Claus myth to escape from the drudgery of real life into fantasy.
"Might it be the case that the harshness of real life requires the creation of something better, something to believe in, something to hope for in the future or to return to a long-lost childhood a long time ago in a galaxy far far away?" they ask.

Q: Does HashSet and HashMap both use Hashtable ? Or Hashtable is totally different data structure? I already know that we use HashMap when we have Key-Value pair and we use HashSet when we do not need repetitive data. But I always get confused where Hashtable comes into play. Is it a totally different data structure? Or both HashMap and HashSet use hash function to store data in Hashtable? Thorough explanation will be really helpful .

A: Both HashMap and HashSet use a hash table (note the lower case!) which is a name for a general way of writing a certain kind of data structure.  You can write your own hash table; I've written my own hash tables; hash tables are just a general data structure design, just like you can have linked lists that aren't implemented using LinkedList.  (Note HashSet is actually implemented using HashMap, but this isn't particularly important for your question.)
Hashtable is the Java API for a type that worked like HashMap that is no longer recommended for use, since HashMap does its job better, basically.  You should never use it.

A: More specific, HashSet uses internally a HashMap, look at the implementation of HashSet.java
private transient HashMap<E,Object> map;

As stated in a previous answer and in the JavaDoc of the HashMap, the HashMap implementation is based on a hash table data-structure:

Hash table based implementation of the Map interface.  This implementation provides all of the optional map operations, and permits null values and the null key.  (The HashMap class is roughly equivalent to Hashtable, except that it is unsynchronized and permits nulls.) This class makes no guarantees as to the order of the map; in particular, it does not guarantee that the order will remain constant over time.

There is also a Hashtable (recognize the lower case t) available in the java.util package. The main difference is stated also in the JavaDoc:

Unlike the new collection implementations, Hashtable is synchronized. If a thread-safe implementation is not needed, it is recommended to use HashMap in place of Hashtable.  If a thread-safe highly-concurrent implementation is desired, then it is recommended ConcurrentHashMap in place of Hashtable.

That said, the JavaDoc states that Hashtable should never be used. If you need a thread-safe implementation use ConcurrentHashMap, otherwise use a HashMap. If you need a concurrent set you should have a look at Why there is no ConcurrentHashSet against ConcurrentHashMap. If you are looking for a good set implementation just use HashSet (which is internally nothing else than a HashMap).

Q: convexity of inner product of elementwise powers For $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ and $A,B \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$,
$f(x) = ((Ax)^{2})^T((Bx)^2)$
where $^2$ denotes the power of 2, element-by-element of vector Ax or Bx.
(I wasn't sure how to notate this)
Is $f(x)$ convex? How can it be shown?
If the domain of $x$ is restricted to be $x$ nonnegative, then is it convex?

A: No, it is not convex in general.  Taking $A = \left[\begin{smallmatrix}1 & 0\end{smallmatrix}\right]$ and $B = \left[\begin{smallmatrix}0 & 1\end{smallmatrix}\right]$ your function is $f(x,y) = x^2y^2$.  But $0.5 f(1,0) + 0.5 f(0,1) = 0 + 0 = 0 < 0.5^4 = f(0.5,0.5)$.

Q: Populating an array with a foreach loop? I'm trying to populate the array for the variable $example_data. I have an array of Mass' and dates that I want to populate this array with. However I do not know how to create a new array entry for each $mass[$x] and $date[$x] that I want to store. I've tried putting a foreach loop inside the $example_data = array( but it didnt work.
This is what I want it to do, but doesn't work:
$example_data = array(
    foreach($exer->results() as $ex){
        $mass = $ex->Mass;
        $date = $ex->Date;

        array($date,$mass),
);

This is what I've tried but not sure how to complete it:
$userID = $user->data()->id;

$sql = "SELECT * FROM userdetails WHERE UserID = ".$userID."";
$details = DB::getinstance()->query($sql);

$x = 1;

foreach($details->results() as $detail){
    /** getting data from each record from field Mass and storing it in $mass array **/
    $mass[$x] = $detail->Mass;
    $date[$x] = $detail->Date;

    $x++;
}

$x = 1;

$example_data = array(
        array($date[$x],$mass[$x]),
        /** I want it to create a new array entry for each $mass[] **/
);

A: It depends on the type of database you're using...
For example if you're using MySQL, it's mysqli_fetch_assoc()
You're trying to fetch a result set into an associative array but the result set itself is an associative array
try...
$sql = "SELECT * FROM userdetails WHERE UserID = ".$userID."";
$details = DB::getinstance()->query($sql);

$example_data = array(
  array("Mass"),
  array("Date")
);

while($row = $details->fetch_assoc()) {
    array_push($example_data['Mass'], $row['name_of_mass_column_in_db']);
    array_push($example_data['Date'], $row['name_of_date_column_in_db']);
  }
}

Basically, you can just fetch an associative array instead of populating an associative array with an associative array...


I am so glad I get to witness events and gatherings about real food, natural living and organic wellness. We need to talk about real food more and more, the sources of food, how it is grown and marketed and how to consume food so it nourishes our body mind and soul.
We are learning more and more about being responsible for the environment, how food should be grown naturally and in sustainable ways. In the past couple of decades we have realised that the farmers need the support of the consumers, I am so glad I have some fantastic farmer friends who have taken natural and organic farming to a new level. I firmly believe framers are the new age heroes. I really do.
We need to know our farmers too, just as we know our grocers, our favourite eateries in town and our favourite brands of breakfast cereals or our wines. There should be more farmers' markets in every town, more direct purchase from the farmers even if it is through a website and moe interaction between the farmer and the consumer. We really need to fine tune our food procurement so it takes care of our own health as an individual as well as the health of the planet. Something we keep talking on this blog often.
Earlier this month I got the opportunity of attending a great congregation of farmers, consumers and a few great minds who work in the world of food, and it was in the City of Joy Calcutta. And what a Joy it was to interact with like minded people and absorb the food wisdom shared.
The Market Place, as the event was named as, was curated by Salmoli Mukerji and hosted by Vedic Village Spa Resort, in Calcutta. The venue was the perfect place to bring together all the elements that we need to propagate the philosophy of natural living and loving. The Vedic Village Spa Resort is such a breathtaking property that I sorely missed my camera. I was there just for a day as it fell between the dates of the Banaras food festival I was curating at the ITC Maurya this month, but I am so glad that I could make it even for a day.
I am certainly going back to Vedic Village Spa Resort sooner or later for a proper holiday. I will keep craving for it till I actually go there. Here are some phone pictures of my cottage whose huge windows opened to a water body.
Seeing a family of Cormorants just outside my window was the first sight to relish as soon as I entered my room and that moment I made a promise to myself to be back. Huge sunny washrooms, an open air shower surrounded with greenery and absolutely comfortable room with a great view, what more to ask for. Their spa facility is fantastic I heard from all those who were staying there, the natural skin care products I could use and they are so good and purely natural. Imagine a fragrant powder face wash that leaves your skin radiant.
And then it was time to rush to the venue of The Market Place. Fresh produce from Darjeeling, hundreds of rice varieties from Bengal, several varieties of puffed rice and bodis (dried lentil condiments) including goyna bodi, artisan Indian chocolate, terracotta pottery, woodcraft, artisan jam and conserves, hand loom, natural beauty products and many more farm produce and artisan products were available for sale.
All these farmers and craftsmen were brought to showcase how natural living supports those who work closely with nature and the credit of curating is so well goes to Salmoli Mukerji.
It is high time we bring out the treasures from our villages and people, to celebrate and revive the living database of knowledge and skill that threatens to get lost if we don't value it rightly.
I could taste great Bengali food by Bhoomi, the restaurant at the resort and it was the best Bengali food I have ever eaten I must say. The dinner curated and cooked by Chef Abhijit Saha combined the fresh produce from the region and modern cooking and presentation skills, a real treat indeed.
And last but not the least, I got an opportunity to speak at this conclave too. The topic of my talk was, how our traditions, festivals and wedding rituals have helped conserve some of the foods and ingredients, an anthropological analysis and lessons for us to follow. Here is a picture of me speaking at the event, a phone picture generously shared by a dear friend.
All the talk sessions and live cooking sessions were being streamed live, Arvind watched me on his phone from Chandigarh and gave me his critical feedback too thanks to technology.
But I am so glad someone very dear complemented me just after the talk and said this should be the first chapter of your book. This was really overwhelming and I count it in my blessings.
Sharing the literature of the event details so you can see the line up of other speakers too.
You can click and enlarge these pictures to read better.
We need more such efforts in every city. I wish Salmoli Mukerji keeps doing it frequently to support the local farmers and artisans.
This whole effort sounds so good and I feel so proud of u for being a part of such wonderful experience. Luv your work.
Thank you so much. I love that you keep coming back to encourage me :-) Please stay in touch.


Jhon Gutti is originally from Colombia (South America).
His interest in tattooing began at the age of 15 upon receiving his first tattoo.
Some years later, while studying architecture, Jhon realized that it wasn't for him and decided to dedicate his life to the art of tattooing.
Although Jhon did receive a degree in architecture while nurturing his growing talent and building experience in the world of tattooing, he could not see himself being confined by the structured and rigid confines of demanding architectural protocol.
He enjoys the art of tattooing and especially the freedom of expression that it brings. Jhon feels that life is too precious to be wasting in a career that does not bring him personal satisfaction nor lets him be who he wants to be .
Jhon has been tattooing just shy of 10 years and in that time he has showcased his amazing talent for tattooing realism in black and grey as well as color in numerous tattoo conventions and guest spots from Mexico all the way down to the bottom of South America.
Recently, Jhon left Canvas Tattoo (his own tattoo studio in Medellin, Colombia) so that he could join the crew at Outer Limits Tattoo in Long Beach, California.
He will be traveling the U.S.A. doing guest spots and attending conventions in the months to come.
Please feel free to contact Jhon directly or at Outer Limits Tattoo (long Beach location) for consultations and appointments!

Q: Row counts from multiple SQL instances/Servers I have been asked to generate row counts for every table in 4 databases and record the results on a 5th database.

*

*Database_1 is on Server_a

*Database_2 is on Server_b

*Database_3 is on Server_c

*Database_4 is on Server_d

*Database_5 is on Server_e

The list of tables in each of the databases 1 to 4 are exactly the same.  Occasionally the list of tables will increase/decrease depending on users requirements, but all 4 database will have exactly the same
In Database_5, where the results are needed, they want only one table with the following fields:
DateRun (Date row count run), Table_Name, DB1, DB2, DB3, DB4

The fields DB1 to DB4 are where the row count results are to be stored.
I am aware of how to link servers and I can use sp_msforeachtable.  But I just cant work out how to get a list of tables from one server into Table_Name, then populate record counts for all 4 databases into fields DB1, DB2, DB3 & DB4
I'm guessing the first query needs to generate a list of tables & row counts from DB1 and insert that into DB5.
Then select row counts from DB2 and update DB5.DB2 where the table names are the same.
Followed by row counts from DB3 and update DB5.DB3 where the table name are the same.
Repeat for DB4.
Or have I got it all wrong.
Would the queries run on DB5 or would I need to run queries on each of the servers and then insert into DB5?  I would prefer to keep everything together on DB5.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

A: You can use sys.partitions to get a row count. This way you can get all the row counts in one go (without loops, cursors or other flow control logic):
CREATE TABLE #Results(
    RunId INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
    DateRun DATE NOT NULL,
    Table_Name VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
    DB1 INT NOT NULL,
    DB2 INT NOT NULL,
    DB3 INT NOT NULL,
    DB4 INT NOT NULL
)

INSERT INTO #Results(
    DateRun,
    Table_Name,
    DB1,
    DB2,
    DB3,
    DB4
)

SELECT GETDATE()
        ,db1.name
        ,db1.DB1_Rows
        ,db2.DB2_Rows
        ,db3.DB3_Rows
        ,db4.DB4_Rows
FROM (
        SELECT   t.name
                ,p.rows AS DB1_Rows
        FROM DB1.sys.tables t
        INNER JOIN DB1.sys.indexes i ON t.OBJECT_ID = i.object_id
        INNER JOIN DB1.sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.OBJECT_ID AND i.index_id = p.index_id
) db1
    full outer JOIN
        (
            SELECT   t.name
                    ,p.rows AS DB2_Rows
            FROM DB2.sys.tables t
            INNER JOIN DB2.sys.indexes i ON t.OBJECT_ID = i.object_id
            INNER JOIN DB2.sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.OBJECT_ID AND i.index_id = p.index_id
        ) db2
    ON db1.name = db2.name
    INNER JOIN
        (
            SELECT   t.name
                    ,p.rows AS DB3_Rows
            FROM DB3.sys.tables t
            INNER JOIN DB3.sys.indexes i ON t.OBJECT_ID = i.object_id
            INNER JOIN DB3.sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.OBJECT_ID AND i.index_id = p.index_id
        ) db3
    ON db1.name = d3.name
    INNER JOIN
        (
            SELECT   t.name
                    ,p.rows AS DB4_Rows
            FROM DB4.sys.tables t
            INNER JOIN DB4.sys.indexes i ON t.OBJECT_ID = i.object_id
            INNER JOIN DB4.sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.OBJECT_ID AND i.index_id = p.index_id
        ) db4
    ON db1.name = db4.name
;

A: Have you looked into using information schema? This would probably be the best way forward along with some dynamic SQL. There are some good posts about this on the page DYnamic SQL examples

Frank R. Capo, U.S. Coast Guard
• Letters •
PAPGR Admin
To: Mr. Bill Howley Patriot Guard Riders
From: Robert J. Capo and the Capo Family
Subject: Respect for Frank R. Capo, U.S. Coast Guard
Dear Mr. Howley:
The Capo a family would like to thank the Patriot Guard Members that expressed their sympathy and the members that stood for hours in the flag line at the funeral home and Cemetery. The Capo family sincerely appreciates all members that paid respect to our father and grandfather.
We would also like to thank you for the beautiful engraved plaque and the booklet assembled to summarize the respect for your comrade.
Dad told me many stories over the years about his duty in World War II, when he entered service at Delaware, in the South Pacific during the liberation of the Philippines, and a tour to Australia along with his discharge in Michigan. He always said he was fortunate to return home to his family after seeing others lose their life in the battle of Leyte Gulf. He always had respect for his fellow comrades.
Dad would've greatly appreciated your comments, thoughts and respect. I know he was watching all of us.
Robert J. Capo
For the Capo Family, Joseph, Bonnie, Mike, Nick, Robert & Lisa

Building on this foundation, we are excited to be welcoming three new resident organizations: Playwrights Theatre Centre (PTC), a new-play company dedicated to reimagining theatre, rice & beans, a local theatre company interested in experimenting with languages and the theatrical form, as well as Company 605, our first resident dance company. Our new roommates start arriving this November!
As our new residents join us, we will be adapting the building, improving the current studio and meeting space, and creating an additional smaller studio space. PL 1422 will become more accessible, flexible and expansive. With this substantial growth, we anticipate even more performances, workshops, auditions, circles, talks and community meetings.
"PTC was planning a move to an accessible space when the chance to join C-Space came up. We couldn't believe our luck. We can't wait for the new ideas that will percolate as we share morning coffee (and visions for the future of theatre) in the space," says Heidi Taylor, Artistic & Executive Director of PTC.
For the past 10 years, Progress Lab 1422 (PL1422) has provided the theatre industry and wider arts sector with an exceptional, readily-available and affordable creative space for creation and development in East Vancouver. With a deeply-felt spirit of collaboration, community and resource-sharing, Neworld Theatre, Electric Company, Rumble and Boca del Lupo, founded Vancouver Creative Space Society (C-Space) an innovative and co-operative joint venture established to collectively manage PL1422. In 2018, after almost a decade, Boca Del Lupo took over Performance Works on Granville Island, and Theatre Conspiracy became the fourth full time resident.
Then, July 1, 2019, our rent more than doubled.
With many of PL1422's original founders having moved on or out of leadership roles, a new generation of C-Space members were challenged to find a way to salvage or else face losing our unique home. In consultation with colleagues, funders and the creative community, we explored many approaches to the challenge of our rent increase. We considered moving elsewhere, but affordable and accessible creation space for performing arts organizations is hard to come by in Vancouver. So, we decided to stay and undertake the biggest and most ambitious project since we opened PL1422 a decade ago and make room for more organizations to join our shared space and collective.
Overseeing this transformation, Christie Watson, Managing Director of Rumble Theatre and C-Space Board Chair states "we chose to view this recent obstacle as an opportunity to reimagine our facilities and structures to better serve our community, enable greater access and provide more collaborative platforms for the creation of the kind of high calibre performance that Vancouver is renowned for. That said, the impact of real-estate prices on creative space use is draining creation and programming funds as well as our capacity to simply keep the lights on. Which is why our long-term vision is to invite members of the private the sector, to support this truly unique creation hub. What might have been the end of Progress Lab has paved the way for an even stronger organization, and we look forward to another 10 years of impactful work."
C-Space members are thrilled with the range of companies joining Progress Lab 1422. They represent the best of Vancouver's creative organizations, committed to making and presenting a diverse range of work with Canadian, Indigenous and international artists, locally, across Canada and around the world.
