End U.S. aid to Palestinian terrorists
By Dan Coats, JPOST—
Palestinian Authority has honored Palestinian terrorists serving criminal sentences in Israeli prisons and rewarded the families of those "martyred" by their own violent acts.
This comes as no surprise to Israelis, who have both suffered the attacks of terrorists for decades and watched as the terrorists themselves were honored with official salaries or buried as patriotic heroes.
But it is a surprise to American officials.
Even after two decades of PA support for terrorism, the Obama administration continues to ignore it or even make excuses for these payments.
A recent State Department publication dismissed the payments as "an effort to reintegrate into society and prevent recruitment by hostile political factions." Even in the unlikely event leaders at the US State Department actually believe this, they would have to explain why these "social welfare" payments increase dramatically with the severity of the crime for which the terrorist is convicted.
Where else in the world does a prisoner receive benefits that actually increase with the level of violence committed? For the many Americans who have only recently become familiar with this heinous practice, the shock is even greater that American taxpayer dollars have been used to make these payments to terrorists. As a US senator and a custodian of our citizens' resources, I find this practice reprehensible.
Since 1998 when this terrorist payments program reportedly first began, the United States has contributed more than $4.6 billion (in constant dollars) to the PA . The great majority of this amount has been in straight budgetary support to the PA , enabling it to meet its budgetary commitments.
That includes payments to terrorists and the families of "martyrs."
It is difficult from the outside to determine how much has been spent rewarding terrorists over that period, although the budget number for the payments program in recent years has been about $128m.
annually. Also, the 2014 PA budget included a separate line item for the "Institution for the Care of Martyrs' Families" that totaled $155m. Together, these amounts would be 86 percent of the $327.6m. requested this year by the Obama administration for bilateral assistance to the PA .
For the past two years, I have been working with my Senate colleagues to reduce the amount of aid to the PA by the amount that is paid out to terrorists and their families.
When legislation first took effect with that purpose, PA President Mahmoud Abbas tried to avoid such consequences by transferring the program to the PLO .
To put an end to that shell game too, this year we are amending the annual appropriations act accordingly. Our hope is that, by restricting our voluntary assistance to the PA and applying this budgetary pressure, it will end this immoral program of rewarding and encouraging terrorists.
I do understand that some are reluctant to impose more pressure on a financially weak and dependent PA , believing that it would deprive President Abbas of what little remains of his authority and status as a negotiating partner, thus making a negotiated settlement even less likely. Even some Israeli officials have tried to avoid steps that could weaken the PA 's stability as a West Bank security provider.
But such cold calculations of cause and effect can only follow a firm stand on moral principle. The Palestinian Authority does not deserve immunity just because of its fragility. These payments provide rewards and motivations for brutal terrorists, plain and simple.
To provide US taxpayer money to Abbas and his government so that they can treat terrorists as heroes or glorious martyrs is morally unacceptable. To tolerate such an outrage because of concern for Abbas's political future or preserving the PA 's security role amounts to self-imposed extortion.
If the PA 's fragile financial condition requires US assistance, then it is their policy – not ours – that needs to change.

Considering one or two ideas from the National Standards of Staff Development and the challenges related to structuring and staff development, how do you envision effective staff development will occur when you are Principal / Vice-Principal?
The Instructional Core as outline in the School Effectiveness Framework identifies this reality. When looking at the far right side of the Instructional Core, one can see that the "Instructional Task" in the core includes teacher, student, and curriculum as the focus. The traditional PD opportunities outlined above focused on the needs (perceived or real) of the teacher first and foremost, with the students and the curriculum resting around the periphery. Ultimately, since a teacher's job is to meet the curriculum, the PD of the teacher focused primarily on teacher and curriculum and not so much on the collective and individual needs of the students. For teacher professional development to be purposeful and effective, it needs to be solidly based in the needs of the students first and foremost. The needs of the students informs the needs and the PD of the teacher. In this way, a class profile can help the teacher plan for learning using a universal design approach – understanding the individual learning styles and needs of each students and planning to meet those needs accordingly. " It provides strategies for tapping the unique learning strengths of each student. In addition, it helps teachers to use knowledge of their students' interest and backgrounds to assist them in planning meaningful, relevant lessons." (OPC PQP II Binder, Module 7, pg. 69 – "Equity") The curriculum is the framework through which all of this takes place.
I also see professional development in my building being differentiated and suited to the individual needs of the teachers in the same way as learning experiences need to be designed for the individual needs of their students, both collectively and indivisaully. Far too often, staff meetings and opportunities for development are delivered in one way only and do not take the individual learning needs of each educator into consideration. I find it hypocritical to promote something for students but not promote the same for educators. "It is important that the learning methods used in professional development mirror as closely as possible the methods teachers are expected to use with their students." (OPC PQP II Binder, Module 7, pg. 68 – "Learning") We talk about "Knowing Our Students" but we must not forget that "Knowing Our Staff" is equally as important and, as leaders, we must respect that "…people have different learning styles and strengths [and that]…professional development must include opportunities to see, hear, and do various actions in relation to the content." (OPC PQP II Binder, Module 7, pg. 68 – "Learning") As someone that has always explored and expressed the powers of technology to support differentiation and multiple windows for learning, we must not forget that technology as the power to "…bring the world of learning to educators rather than requiring educators to go to their learning." ("Implementing the Standards for Staff Development", pg. 7 – http://www.nsdc.org/news/authors/e-learning.pdf) Webinars, conferences, videos, podcasts, and the like can be consumed individually and collectively to increase opportunities, times, places, and designs for learning. "Time for learning is flexible and available to learners twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week (24/7). Learning occurs anywhere access is available and when the learning is desired. Learning opportunities are available worldwide; and the learning experiences [are] customizable and supports "just-in-time" learning." ("Implementing the Standards for Staff Development", pg. 2 – http://www.nsdc.org/news/authors/e-learning.pdf) Valuable, and expensive, time and resources do not need to be spent when free and readily accessible information is available. As an example, prior to calling a consultant, opportunities for teachers to self-serve their development on learning a tool can be provided. Then, when board supports are called in, time can be more productively spent planning and developing rich learning taks for students rather than extending an after-school approach that we know doesn't work into a pseudo job embedded experience that yields the same result.
Only by fully understanding the aforementioned approach to staff development in the 21st Century will resources truly be utilized to the most optimal degree as possible and, as a result, students will receive greater and more dynamic opportunities to succeed and to reach their full potential.
This is the document provided in the Ontario Principal's Council binder for the Principal's Qualification Program Part II. These standards have since been revised so I provide it here for reference. Some pages are a bit blurry, I took pictures of them with the CamScanner app on my iPhone that converts photos to PDFs (pretty neat).


Benjamin Harrison, the 23rd President of the United States, was born in 1833 to a long line of politicians at a farm near the Ohio River below Cincinnati. He was one of the few Presidents to have had a relative also be a previous president. His grandfather William Henry Harrison, "Old Tippecanoe," was the ninth President. His great grandfather also signed the Declaration of Independence.
Benjamin attended Miami University, then studied law in Cincinnati. After he got married in 1853 to Caroline Lavinia Scott, he moved to Indianapolis, Indiana where he gained a solid reputation as a successful lawyer. He used his connections to help campaign for the Republican Party.
He took a brief hiatus from his law practice in order to fight in the Civil War as a Colonel of the 70th Volunteer Infantry. He returned soon after.
He was not known for a friendly demeanor and was thought to be cold, although many respected him. His reputation caused him to lose the election for the Indiana governor in 1876. Fortunately, he did become a U.S. Senator in 1880, which paved the way to run for President, although winning was not an easy task. In the election, he ran against Cleveland and ended up with 100,000 fewer popular votes. Despite fewer popular votes, he still won the Electoral College 233 to 168!
Harrison mostly agreed with Congress when handling problems, although he did focus greatly on foreign policies. He attempted to get Hawaii annexed and also established the basis of the Pan American Union, which met for the first time in Washington in 1889.
Although he did not have success with Hawaii, six new states were admitted to the Union: North Dakota, South Dakota, Idaho, Montana, Washington, and Wyoming, which caused the country to officially reach from one coast to the other.
He also was well known for signing the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, which protected, "...trade and commerce against unlawful restraints and monopolies." This was the first Federal act attempting to regulate trusts.
He did run for a second term in 1892 but lost to former President Grover Cleveland. The same man he narrowly won the election the prior term.
After he left office, he returned to Indianapolis where he married widowed Mrs. Mary Dimmick four years later. He died in 1901.
Because he was only 5 feet 6 inches, he was nicknamed by Democrats, "Little Ben," but Republicans would retort that he was big enough to wear the hat of his grandfather, "Old Tippecanoe"
In 1889, he placed the first Christmas tree in the White House.
In 1892, his wife was one of three first ladies to die while their husbands were in office.
His grandfather was the ninth President of the United States, William Henry Harrison.
His great-grandfather signed the Declaration of Independence.
He was the first President to use electric light in the White House. He also was the last president to date to have a beard.
Great share on the history of this president.

Q: Get file extensions to populate into a ComboBox in C# So I have a folder with some imagens in many extensions like .ico, .png, .jpg, etc. and I've populated it into a comboBox using this code:
string caminho = @"C:\Users\User1\Desktop\Test\";
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(caminho);
FileInfo[] fi = dir.GetFiles();
foreach (var ficheiro in fi)
{
    string caminhoF = caminho + ficheiro.ToString();
    string extension = Path.GetExtension(caminhoF);
    comboBox1.Items.Add(extension);
}

The code is getting all the existing extensions in this path and put it on the comboBox, but it displays like this:
.ico
.ico
.ico
.png
.png
.jpg
.jpg

and I want to simply display each one of the existing extensions like grouping them.
Could you help me with that?

A: You can get the file extension from the FileInfo. You can also use Linq Distinct() to get unique extensions.
string caminho = @"C:\Users\User1\Desktop\Test\";
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(caminho);
var extensions = dir.GetFiles().Select(fi => fi.Extension).Distinct();
foreach (var extension in extensions) {
    comboBox1.Items.Add(extension);
}

A: Ok, I was to find a solution for it. Here it is the code:
string caminho = @"C:\Users\User1\Desktop\Test\";
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(caminho);
FileInfo[] fi = dir.GetFiles();
foreach (var ficheiro in fi)
{
    string caminhoF = caminho + ficheiro.ToString();
    string extension = Path.GetExtension(caminhoF);
    if (!comboBox1.Items.Contains(extension))
    {
        comboBox1.Items.Add(extension);
    }
}

A: Here are the rough steps:

*

*Scan your folder to find out what files it contains.

*Extract the file extension from each file you find.

*Using a data structure that stores only unique entries, add extensions that you find to be new to the structure.

*Iterate over the data structure to populate your combobox.

The part that you need is to find a data structure that helps you store unique values.
HashSet<T> has your back here: it allows quick lookups to determine set membership ("does the set already contain some element x?").
string caminho = @"C:\Users\User1\Desktop\Test\";
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(caminho);
FileInfo[] fi = dir.GetFiles();
HashSet<string> extensions = new HashSet<string>;

foreach (var ficheiro in fi)
{
    string caminhoF = caminho + ficheiro.ToString();
    string extension = Path.GetExtension(caminhoF);

    // If the set does not contain this extension, it'll be added and
    // `Add()` will return true. Otherwise, it will do nothing and `Add()`
    // will return false.
    extensions.Add( extension );
}

foreach( var extension in extensions ) {
    comboBox1.Items.Add(extension);
}

A: LINQ-to-Objects makes this easy. LINQ is similar to SQL but allows chaining transformations.
var comboBox1 = new ComboBox();
var caminho = @"C:\Users\User1\Desktop\Test\";
var dir = new DirectoryInfo(caminho);
var extensions = dir.GetFiles()
       .Select(fi => fi.Extension)
       .OrderBy(ext => ext, StringComparer.CurrentCulture)
       .Distinct(StringComparer.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase)
       .ToArray();
comboBox1.Items.AddRange(extensions);

Diablo 4 Gameplay Preview: What We Know So Far
Written by: Albert de Venecia | Published: 11 March 2021
With the overall popularity of the Diablo series on the PC gaming landscape, one can only wonder why Blizzard took years before publishing a sequel. The release of Diablo 3 was a nightmare for them and has a lot of things that longtime fans of the franchise didn't look at fondly. However, Blizzard did announce Diablo 4, a sequel to the Diablo series that just might get their name in the clear.
What Is Diablo 4?
Diablo IV is the fourth title of the critically acclaimed Diablo series. It's a dungeon crawler action RPG created by Blizzard Entertainment and announced at BlizzCon 2019.
Is There a Release Date for Diablo 4?
Unfortunately, Blizzard hasn't revealed the release date for Diablo 4 yet. However, it's been confirmed by Blizzard themselves that the game won't be released for a few years yet. It's a good possibility that the game is going to be released between 2023 and 2024, with late 2022 being the earliest possible release date.
Where Can You Play Diablo 4?
Blizzard stated that Diablo 4 is going to be released on PC, as always. However, they also stated that the game is coming out on the PS4, as well as Xbox One. Time will tell if the game will also be released on the newer PS5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles. But Blizzard did state that the development of both PC and console versions of Diablo 4 is proceeding at the same time.
Diablo 4 Gameplay Preview
As of right now, we don't know that much about Diablo 4. What we do know comes from interviews with the developers, the trailers showing gameplay, and not much else. For now, we can only speculate on what is to come on Diablo 4. So, let's start, shall we?
Screenshot from Diablo's Video via YouTube
The core formula of the Diablo series hasn't changed even after all these years. You still roam around, fighting monsters, getting better gear, and gradually getting stronger through this by killing more powerful opponents. You can fight enemies by normal attacks and by using a multitude of class skills exclusive to characters that players can customize by getting better equipment, as well as leveling talents. This is still pretty much the concept that's used to this day on other RPGs.
There are, however, a few things that Diablo 4 plans to add to the player's arsenal.
Other than the usual stuff that we've already mentioned above, there are plans to introduce three new attributes in Diablo 4. These are Demonic, Ancestral, and Angelic Power. The main differences between these three are the fact that Demonic and Angelic Powers alter the effect duration of negative and positive effects. Meanwhile, Ancestral Power is the increased chance of giving said effects to someone or something else.
The game's various weapons and other types of gear all have a rarity system common to RPGs today. This is what they plan to be the benchmark on how powerful an item is. Usually, the game's rarest items are ones that have powerful and unique effects that go beyond altering character parameters. These can range from adding an aura to the character or dealing damage to enemies that hit you.
Last but not the least, any gear that you have can further be improved and customized through runes and runewords found in the world. These allow players the ability to upgrade gear that they use with some additional effects. These are split into two types, Effect and Condition runes. Read on to better understand what they do.
Runic Languages
The runes in this game are unique in that you need a full runeword to get a full effect. And to do that, you need to know which rune does which. Now that's a pretty easy distinction if the developers are right about it. The Effect runes, as described by the developers, are the additional effects such as dealing increased ice damage. Condition runes are those that will describe the situations and, yes, conditions under which the effect rune that preceded it will activate.
Combining these two will then create a runeword, after which you can apply to the item of your choice. This new take on the rune system might have great versatility and one that will be interesting to see made manifest in the future.
Controls & Combat
The controls and combat in Diablo 4 still look similar enough to its predecessors and other isometric RPGs out there. And for those people that want a bit of nostalgia in the front, you're pretty much in luck. Diablo 4 doesn't seem to divert from that formula in the controls and combat part of its gameplay, which is great.
Combat in the game also seems to still be influenced by what you're currently using. So having higher gear and better weapons is still key to victory. Here's hoping that they won't go the Diablo 3 route and do something like the Auction House, though.
Character Classes
As of right now, Blizzard has revealed four character classes available for Diablo 4. These classes are the usual: Barbarian, Sorceress, Druid, and the recently revealed Rogue class. What's surprising is the return of the Druid Class from Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction. Let's talk about each class in detail below.
This class is an incredibly physical and brutal melee warrior. He dishes out heavy physical damage and uses a wide array of weapons with the ease of a painter creating a masterpiece.
They can do this through the use of the Arsenal system, which allows Barbarians to switch between various weapon types. These can range from dual-wielding hand axes to a giant war hammer. This allows the Barbarian to adapt to the battlefield and have options depending on the situation and needs that you have. As for how it's balanced? The Arsenal system can only have a pair of both one and two-handed weapons.
As we've already stated, Barbarian players can carry four weapons in total with the ability to dynamically alternate between each of them at any time. If you think about it, they have a great potential for absolutely disgusting mix-ups and skill combos. Players who can manage all of this would be thrilled at the level of customization that they have at their fingertips. There are some skills in their arsenal that have specific weapon requirements as well.
Other than this, Barbarians can also give Crowd Control immunity to other characters as well as themselves. They can do this, as well as giving other bonuses, through the use of Shouts. Specialization-wise, you can go for either Warlord or Berserker. The Warlord's skills and talents are the more support style of Barbarian, buffing the party with bonuses, being a tank with high defense, and generally dealing damage through bleed damage and Crowd Control. The Berserker style of gameplay is the quintessential Barbarian, dealing maximum damage through reckless offensive power, buffing themselves, etc.
The Sorceress is a hero that deals big damage through the use of incredibly powerful elemental magic. However, they're incredibly fragile and prone to one-shot if they aren't careful—a certified "high risk, high reward" style of gameplay that's going to appeal to a lot of people. Sorceresses can use spells that deal fire, cold, and lightning damage to enemies.
The Sorceress class has a special mechanic called Crackling Energy. This mechanic allows a Sorceress's Lightning spells to create a ball of energy with the right talents equipped. This ball can then be picked up by the Sorceress, allowing her to restore mana for more spell usage.
Now chill spells are a bit unique in the hands of a Sorceress. For one, multiple casts of spells with the Chill debuff stack it to the person getting hit. When the stacks reach a certain point, i.e., the slow that the debuff gives reaches 100%, the enemy is immediately frozen. Frozen enemies cannot move or cast any magic or anything at all for the remaining duration of the debuff.
Fire spells give the Burning effect on affected enemies. Burning deals fire damage over time and can have additional effects if the Sorceress equips the correct talents for it.
Last but not the least, the Sorceress class uses an Enchantment system mechanic unique to it. With it, a Sorceress's active skills can be slotted on any of her skill slots, or they can be put on her Enchantment slots. In total, you can put nine different skills in this mechanic.
If they decide to put a skill into this Enchantment slot, the skill can no longer be used actively. Instead, the character obtains a new passive/semi-passive secondary bonus powerup.
Rogues are for people that want to be a little bit poisonous and sneaky in their dealings with enemies. They're proficient in using shortswords and daggers for melee while using bows or crossbows for ranged. They have something similar to the Barbarians' Arsenal system where they can switch between them.
Thus, they have a lot of build variety due to the no locking out of skill options part. The stats that a Rogue's skill will have depend on their weapons. For example, a Rogue's ranged skills are calculated using the ranged weapon that they have equipped. Lastly, mobility is a Rogue's friend. Keep moving, don't stop; if you stop, you're dead.
In Diablo 4, Rogue's can specialize in three different ways: Combo Points, Shadow Realm, and Exploit Weakness. Each of these specializations is tied to a different Rogue group in the world of Diablo 4. And to unlock them, you need to complete a Rogue-specific quest exclusive to that specialization.
The groups that you need to court are groups that are prolific in the previous Diablo games. These include the Sisterhood of the Sightless Eye, or at least the ones left of them, the diminished but still dangerous mercenaries of Kehjistan, and the outlaws of Hawezar.
Lastly, they have something called the Imbue system. Rogues can use this system to modify what kind of damage type that their skills will deal in battle. These damage types can be either Cold, Poison, or Shadow. And depending on what type of damage you put there, you will have secondary effects. It's easy to speculate what Cold and Poison damages are; as for Shadow, we don't have a clue just yet.
If you're picking the Druid as your class of choice in Diablo 4, know that they're master shapeshifters, as well as one of, if not the most flexible classes in the game. (At least, that's what Blizzard said.) You can instantly change between your Were form and back to human, and vice versa after a short three-second cooldown. These forms can range from bears to wolves. He also has magic, commanding a presence on the earth and the storm.
Due to how versatile they are, they have access to different skills. And depending on what you equip, you can do some pretty crazy stuff. Summon a storm of lightning and rain while running around the area as a bear to turn your enemies into mincemeat. Or, maybe you want to be a wolf, sprinting around and tearing throats while the very earth itself stuns your enemies. Nature is at your disposal, and it's not happy with the invaders.
One of the more unique class mechanics that the Druid has in his possession is Crushing Blows. By using an Earth skill, which is using the earth to smack your enemies to the dust, you can reduce enemy HP by a flat percentage of their total. Do know, though, that the effect is reduced on other players or bosses.
The last mechanic we need to talk about that's used in a lot of the Druid skills is the Vulnerable debuff. If an enemy's Vulnerable, they'll take an additional 30% damage from any attacks. The debuff lasts until the enemy's dead or losing a stated amount of damage from any type of source.
Now in terms of its graphics, the game has some similarities to Diablo 3, but only in terms of polish. Other than that, the graphical atmosphere of the game seems to be taken directly from an earlier game in the series, Diablo 2. This is seen by some fans as an improvement over the previous game, as they felt that the atmosphere of Diablo 3 is a bit lighter.
Other than that though, there's not much difference. The game looks a bit cleaner in the graphical sense, and it's better rendered. But other than that, the game looks like the same old Diablo that people loved.
As per usual, Diablo 4 is set in the world of Sanctuary after the events of Diablo III: Reaper of Souls. Due to some pretty big negligence, Cultists have somehow managed to summon the daughter of Mephisto, Lilith, who is the main antagonist of the game. After the events of Diablo 1 through 3, both Heaven and Hell's forces have taken a massive hit. This allows Lilith to establish a foothold in Sanctuary.
Now for those that know their Diablo lore, and way back in the series' timeline, Lilith and her angel lover Inarius made Sanctuary give refuge to humans and their eventual children. Because of their union, they gave birth to the race of the Nephalem, which you, the player, are a part of. However, the other inhabitants of Sanctuary feared that their existence would result in unwanted attention from Heaven and Hell.
It's because of this that they planned on killing all Nephalem. Of course, as any mother would, Lilith objected. Violently. This caused her husband Inarius to banish her into the void, hopefully for all eternity. Or at least, until her hateboner finally cooled.
World & Environment
In terms of Diablo 4's world and environment, it appears that players can go through five different regions in the world of Sanctuary. These are the Fractured Peaks, Scosglen, Dry Steppes, Kehjistan, and Hawezar. There's also talk about Hell being a playable area, though as per usual, there's no confirmation on it.
The game also seems to have procedurally generated dungeons in it as well, which Blizzard stated to consist of randomized layouts and filled with random loot. For now, though, there's not much to tell about the game's world and environment, as Blizzard still hasn't revealed much.
Diablo 4 Compared to Older Diablo Games
Now that we've talked about what's to come on Diablo 4, let's talk about the games that came before it. Let's start with the more recognizable one first, Diablo 2 and its expansions, and then move on to Diablo 3.
Now a lot of people consider Diablo 2 to be the best RPG that came out of its generation, and a lot of them will stick by that statement. Now they aren't wrong in that regard. The game is one of the best examples of how an RPG should be.
With the dark and dreary atmosphere and the good gameplay, you won't find any flaw in this game other than the fact that it's old. Even then, nostalgia will still make you feel as if you're playing the game for the first time again.
Now that doesn't excuse the fact that the game does have its flaws. For one, it can't run well on the newer versions of Windows and now has a few hilarious bugs that can happen. Examples of this would be clipping enemies, enemies with movement that makes no sense, and a few others. However, the fact that the game was so popular and influential that it made Blizzard remaster it to Diablo 2 Resurrected speaks of its appeal to the masses.

Now in terms of how it's remembered, Diablo 3 isn't looked back on as fondly as Diablo 2, and with good reason. Blizzard did quite a few wrong things when they were creating this game, with the most glaring being the Auction House. But other than that, the game also launched in a pretty bad state, with bugs and other things littering all over after you finish the first chapter.
It took months for Blizzard to polish the game after its launch and we still haven't talked about the fact that the game needs an internet connection to play. This is a huge departure from the previous games.
As for how Diablo 4 is going to compare to Diablo 3? Well, let's just hope that the game doesn't launch in a bad state or has something similar to the Auction House or other monetization things.

How do I remove all sub-directories from within a directory?
I have a directory that contains a bunch of sub-directories, .zip files, and other random files not contained within a sub-directory.
I'd like a command line script to remove all sub-directories from within the parent directory, but keep all zip files and loose files that don't belong to any sub-directories. All of the sub-directories have content, so I believe I'd need to force their deletion with the -f command.
So basically, a command that looks inside the parent directory (or the current directory), deletes all folders from within it, but keeps all other content and files that are not a folder or contained within a folder.
I understand that deleting items from the command line requires special care, but I have already taken all necessary precautions to back up remotely.
Note the -- which separates options from arguments and allows one to remove entries starting with a hyphen - otherwise after expansion by the shell the entry name would be interpreted as an option by rm (the same holds for many other command line utilities).
Add the -f option if you don't want to be prompted for confirmation when deleting non-writeable files.
Note that by default, hidden directories (those whose name starts with .) will be left alone.
An important caveat: the expansion of */ will also include symlinks that eventually resolve to files of type directory. And depending on the rm implementation, rm -R -- thelink/ will either just delete the symlink, or (in most of them) delete the content of the linked directory recursively but not that directory itself nor the symlink.
to include symlinks to directories (but because, this time, the expansion doesn't have trailing /s, it's the symlink only that is removed with all rm implementations).
to strip the trailing /.
As with other find lines, you can run the first part (find -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d) to see a list of directories that will be removed.
any of which will move all the stuff into ../to-rm instead of deleting it. You can verify it did what you wanted, them rm -Rf that directory at your leisure.
You might want to create a script for some of these suggestions, especially rm -R -- */, and keep it in your /usr/local/bin folder; or create an alias in your ~/.bashrc file. Since it's so easy to mistype a command and break your system -- even a single letter and/or the order of letters can result in catastrophic consequences -- this would serve as a somewhat more robust solution than having to type the different options and arguments each time you want to accomplish this task.
Also, you may want to include the -i or --interactive=once or -I or --interactive=always option to your script/command which will serve as another tool to avoid the unintended deletions.
Furthermore, something like derobert suggested would be best; just copy/paste the script into a file/terminal-editor and adjust it to your specific needs, and the files/directories will be moved into a single directory (the contents of which you can check/verify) that you can simply remove by issuing the rm -rf command.
Another option is to use a GUI-application, such as your file manager, and simply select all applicable files/folders you want to delete. Check your distribution's manual-pages if you don't have permissions.
Finally, if the folders are empty -- essentially simple filenames -- you can use the rmdir command to delete them. It doesn't work for everything you may want to delete, but it will come in handy at times when you want to do some "house-cleaning". **You may want try the -p --ignore-fail-on-non-empty option, which will allow you to delete certain sub-directories as well as their empty "parents"--the directories in which they reside.
First you need to list the directories and then remove them, without hampering the normal files, ls -d */, only lists the sub-directories, and piping it with rm removes the directories and contents, keeping the loose files intact.
rm -rf <directory name>. It works. Just typing rm <directory name> just leads to number of sub questions in which each of the sub directory must be removed manually. But, rm -rf helps in removing the whole directory along with its sub directories at once.
Not the answer you're looking for? Browse other questions tagged shell command-line directory wildcards rm or ask your own question.
Does include="*" in rsync copy all hidden files in all sub-directories?


It especially caught my eye because I posted a quote by Charles Babbage a few days ago. I had been reading up on Charles Babbage and his eccentric genuis in The Code Book, by Simon Singh, (which I strongly recommend everyone read, because it is riveting). Babbage designed the engine (which is the blueprint for the first mechanical computer – remember, humans who computed were called "computers" originally) because he was very interested in mathmatical tables – such as the ones used in navigation calculations – and it drove him bats when they were filled with errors, which was typical, because they were man-made, and therefore prone to error. According to the book, Babbage decries human error and wishes to high heaven that the calculations could be done by steam.
What's especially lovely about the video, is it moves from Babbage on to Ada Lovelace, who moved the idea of computer yet another (big) step forward, which opened the laneway for Turing down the line.
None of this helped me with my own proposal, but I found it very interesting.

When should You Choose Laser Spine Surgery in Englewood NJ?
Laser spine surgery in Englewood NJ is commonly-prescribed and effective pain management tool for instances of chronic back pain caused by spinal conditions like herniated and bulging discs, spinal stenosis, and bone spurs.
There are many ways of treating and/or managing the pain associated with certain spinal conditions that cause chronic back pain. Doctors advise rest, prescribe oral medications and steroidal injections, and recommend physical therapy to treat these conditions. However, sometimes none of these methods work, and surgery is the only way to treat the patient.
Traditional spinal surgery involves making one or more large incisions in the affected area of the patient. The eligibility of a patient for undergoing these surgical procedures depends on his age, general physicals condition, and the absence of certain medical conditions and diseases. These surgical processes also take time and involve hospitalization. On the other hand, laser spine surgery, Englewood NJ physicians say, is safe to be performed on almost every one. The duration of the surgery is considerably less than the conventional spinal surgery methods and does not involve hospitalization.
Laser spine surgery, Englewood NJ surgeons say, is the most ideal treatment and pain management methodology for patients who want to recuperate within a short period of time and resume their normal daily activities. For example, there may be instances where the patient needs to go back to his job to support himself and his loved ones. Sometimes, individuals suffering from debilitating back pain need to get treated and recover soon to fulfill familial obligations. Because laser spine surgery is a minimally invasive procedure, the recuperation period is short and is ideal for these people.
Now that you know when to press the button for laser spine surgery, Englewood NJ spine surgeons advise that you reach out to a reliable, outstanding, and sparkling clinic as soon as you can.

Wounding of the skin breaches the physical barrier that protects the body from pathogens in the environment. To counter this breach, wounding triggers an innate immune response that includes the production of antimicrobial peptides and the upregulation of receptors that recognize microbial components. In this issue (pages 803–811), Schauber and colleagues show that wounding of the skin of humans triggers keratinocyte production of the active form of vitamin D3 (1,25D3) and that this induces increased expression of the antimicrobial peptide cathelicidin and the microbial pattern-recognition receptors TLR2 and CD14. Further analysis showed that wounding induced keratinocyte expression of CYP27B1 (the enzyme responsible for converting inactive vitamin D3 to 1,25D3) and that this could be recapitulated in vitro by culturing keratinocytes in the presence of TGF-β1. Indeed, both upregulation of CYP27B1 expression and the presence of inactive vitamin D3 were required for TGF-β1 to induce keratinocyte expression of cathelicidin, TLR2, and CD14. The authors therefore suggest that soluble factors present in wounds, such as TGF-β1, induce the expression of CYP27B1, which enables keratinocytes to produce 1,25D3, which in turn induces the upregulation of some components of the innate immune response.
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common gastrointestinal disorder in the developed world that is characterized by altered bowel function, abdominal discomfort, and pain. However, there are few effective treatments for IBS, in part because the molecular mechanisms underlying the disease symptoms have not been well defined. In this issue (pages 636–647), Cenac and colleagues show that colonic biopsies from individuals with IBS release increased amounts of serine proteases when cultured in vitro compared with colonic biopsies from healthy individuals. Likewise, colonic washes from individuals with IBS contained higher levels of serine proteases than did colonic washes from healthy individuals. The supernatant from cultured colonic biopsies from individuals with IBS activated mouse sensory neurons in vitro and caused mice to exhibit increased visceral responsiveness to pain when administered into the colon. These effects were dependent on the serine proteases in the supernatant and were mediated through activation of protease-activated receptor–2 (PAR2) on the sensory neurons and neurons in the colon, respectively. This study suggests that serine proteases and PAR2 might provide new therapeutic targets for the treatment of individuals with IBS.
Early-stage melanomas grow superficially in a radial manner and can be treated by surgery. By contrast, advanced-stage melanomas grow vertically, gaining the ability to invade other tissues and metastasize to distant organs, and are usually highly resistant to chemotherapy and radiation. Determining the molecular differences between radial and vertical growth melanomas might provide new targets for the development of drugs to treat individuals with advanced-stage melanoma. In this issue (pages 719–729), Govindarajan and colleagues show that overexpression of Akt in a radial growth human melanoma cell line endows the tumor cells with the ability to grow when transplanted into immunocompromised mice. This ability to grow invasively was associated with increased production of ROS, probably because of the increased number of cells with defective mitochondria and increased expression of the ROS-producing enzyme NOX4. This study therefore indicates that overexpression of Akt alone can convert a radial growth melanoma cell line into a highly invasive tumor cell line, leading the authors to suggest that Akt and the pathways that generate ROS might be good targets for the development of drugs to treat individuals with advanced-stage melanoma.
The accumulation of fat in the liver (hepatic steatosis) can result in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, which is associated with hepatic insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, the mechanisms by which fat accumulation leads to hepatic insulin resistance have not been well characterized. In this issue (pages 739–745), Samuel and colleagues set out to determine whether PKCε has a role in the development of fat-induced hepatic insulin resistance in rats. Antisense oligonucleotides specific for PKCε were shown to specifically decrease PKCε expression in the liver and white adipose tissue of treated rats. Although this treatment did not decrease fat accumulation following 3 days on a high-fat diet, it did protect the rats from developing hepatic insulin resistance. Further analysis showed that PKCε interacts with the insulin receptor and inhibits signaling downstream of the insulin receptor, providing a molecular mechanism for the lack of hepatic insulin resistance in the rats treated with antisense oligonucleotides specific for PKCε. This identification of PKCε as a mediator of hepatic steatosis–induced hepatic insulin resistance in rats provides a new potential target for the development of therapeutics to treat individuals with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Scientists from National University of Science and Technology MISiS (NUST MISiS) became the first in the world to publish the results of research carried out on the metal alloy that was thought to be able to replace silicon in electronics.
The experiment, however, did not confirm the foreign scientists' theory that this material possessed all the necessary properties.
The Russian experts' findings were published in the international scientific Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials.

Russian Scientists Discover New Way to Obtain Efficient Energy Materials
The study focused on the Mn2FeAl (manganese-iron-aluminum) alloy. Similar materials are believed to be promising for spintronics — a modern alternative to silicon-based electronics.
Spintronics studies the interaction between the electrons' intrinsic angular momentums, or spins, and electromagnetic fields. It uses the findings to develop the so-called spintronic devices that, unlike traditional electronics, run on the electrons' spin current rather than the electric one.
"Finding materials with a semimetallic conductivity is vitally important, as they will be used in spintronic devices," said Dmitry Karpenkov, one of the researchers, during an interview with a RIA Novosti representative. "In order to be used in spin valve structures, the materials in question have to possess a 100 percent spin polarization — this means that its electrons' magnetic moments are aligned with a given direction. This allows for the improvement of the spintronic devices' efficiency."
NUST MISiS researchers decided to test the theories of foreign researchers who predicted the necessary conductivity for the Mn2FeAl alloy. To do this, scientists melted an ingot in the so-called single phase state to test its magnetic and transport properties.
"The samples turned out to be highly frustrated magnets — this means, strongly disordered, characterized by the absence of long-range magnetic order," Karpenkov pointed out, adding that the material's transport properties turned out to be similar to that of the so-called "bad metals", which are characterized by abnormally high electrical resistivity compared to base metals.
Scientists are planning to continue searching for new materials with 100 percent spin polarization both in theory and in practice by carrying out tests of candidate materials.

Barran () is a commune in the Gers department in southwestern France.

Geography
Barran is located on the river Baïse  from the capital of the Gers department, Auch.

History
Barran is a typical example of a bastide, those villages that were erected in Gascony in the late Middle Ages. It was founded by the end of the 13th century. It is well known in the region for the very unusual helical shape of the tower of its church. Not in the village itself but still on the territory of the commune (the third largest of the department in surface area) are several interesting places, like the castle of Mazères, which was the summer residency of the bishops of Auch and then a military hospital during World War I. Close to the castle is the bridge of Mazères, which was built around the 16th century over the river Baïse. In the 19th century Barran was famous for its snails, from which special gums were made to prevent people from coughing.

Population

Before the migration movement from the countryside to the cities, Barran was quite populous, as was Gers, with up to 2,000 people on the eve of the First World War. Then the population began to fall dramatically, but the trend has changed since the beginning of the '90s: nowadays around 700 people live in the commune, making it the 24th out of 476 communes by population. All basic private and public services (e.g., doctor, grocery and bakery, school, post office, sport facilities) are to be found in the village.

The proximity of Auch, the capital of the department, and Toulouse, the regional capital, which is only  to the east, as well as the current migration trend toward Southern Europe, should boost the further development of Barran.

Q: Greenshot-how to save all or export all open windows, to selected destination? When screenshotting with the Greenshot app I often get too many open windows to find or organise them, and too many to view properly in a cascade/stack of windows, or a taskbar jump list.

*

*Is there a way to save them all? Then I can view/preview/rename/cull, and organise in File Explorer.

*Sometimes it would work better to export/send all windows to Word.  Is there a way to do this?

A: Unfortunately, there is no feature to bulk export all open editor windows at once, neither file system or Word. Do you know that you can choose a different default target for your screenshots than the editor? So you can easily save every screenshot to a file directly. You can also select multiple, e.g. save to file and open in image editor (see screenshot).
However, if you need to export screenshots with annotations from open editor windows, the fastest way is currently to do one after another using shortcurts Ctrl+S, Alt+F4, repeatedly, until all windows are saved and closed.

A: Don't use greenshot when recording multiple screenshots.
Use Windows native Steps Recorder - can

*

*auto-record (numbered step + timestamp + description + screenshot of each action) AND/OR

*manual record screenshots with custom comment (Pause record to record ONLY manual screenshots)
Recording is sent to a zip file. Extract the .mht file,
- click opens it in Internet Explorer.  Preview and save individual screenshots.
- OR open it in Word, edit as required.
(Cons- cant crop or annotate the screenshots while recording, (I use word macros for that)
but does highlight selected area in the comment function.)
