I am trying to parse a string field into date field but having some issues with the ArcGIS field calculator.
Can anybody spot the error or have any alternative methods for parsing out the date?
'module' object is not callable means that you are treating a module as a function.
datetime(int(rasterParts[0:4]), ...) is trying to "call" the datetime module, instead of createing an object of type datetime.datetime.
I knew it would be something simple. Adding the extra datetime.datetime reference worked fine.


The Cubs claimed Zach Putnam off of waivers from the Rockies, Troy Renck of the Denver Post reports (Twitter link). The Rockies also lost Josh Roenicke, Thomas Fields and Guillermo Moscoso via waiver claims this afternoon.
Putnam appeared in two games for the Rockies this past season. The 25-year-old spent most of the season at Triple-A, where he posted a 4.15 ERA with 7.3 K/9 and 4.0 BB/9 in 60 2/3 innings.
Cubs keep piling up on pitching. There's gotta be some lightening in some of those bottles. Go Cubs!
So all these guys the Rockies traded for in the past year are now going to other teams? I will be pretty disappointed if they don't make any major moves to improve after all the crap they fed the fanbase last year about improving the clubhouse with veteran position players and then trading for all this young pitching to develop only to trade or let most of it go like this..

Disney Channel UK has announced the guest stars taking special "spots" on season 1 episodes of the brand-new animated series 101 Dalmatian Street, which will launch early next year: Singer Paloma Faith, award-winning actress Miriam Margolyes, comedian/rapper/actor Ben Bailey Smith, actress/comedian Tameka Empson, and actress Bethan Wright.
"I'm voicing a poodle who is dark, intense has tons of attitude. She is pretty much the coolest pup in Camden Town and loves taking centre stage when drama happens. As you can imagine Portia is hugely entertaining to voice and just one of many wonderful and colourful characters that are part of this incredible new series." — Paloma Faith.
"Bringing the character of Bessie the Cornish Cow to life was great fun. Bessie appears to be sweet, simple and a harmless local – but turns out she's smarter than she seemed, and devious too. I am very much looking forward to seeing how London and the UK's seaside towns are illustrated. The series is bursting with original characters and engaging stories and I am very happy to be part of this animated show." — Miriam Margolyes.
"I get to play two characters, a cheeky cockney trickster called Sid Squirrel, who is obsessed with nuts and Spencer Sausage Dog a snarky, snooty side-kick to Portia Poodle. They are so different from each other and from myself – it's been incredibly fun getting into character. I am thrilled to be part of this brand new Disney Channel animated series and look forward to seeing the audience's response to this new take on a beloved Disney classic." — Ben Bailey Smith.
Ahead of the series premiere in Spring 2019, a special episode will debut in December to introduce audiences to the characters and their world. The 2D series is an extension of Walt Disney's 1961 classic 101 Dalmatians, based on the 1956 novel by Dodie Smith. Disney has commissioned 10 x 2' shorts, 40 x 11' episodes and 5 x 22' specials.
Aimed at girls and boys, the new series has been reimagined for the 21st Century and is set in modern day London in the borough of Camden. The series follows the adventures of eldest siblings Dylan and Dolly — voiced by Josh Brener (Silicon Valley, Star Wars Resistance) and Michaela Dietz (Steven Universe, Barney & Friends) — their parents Doug (Rhashan Stone) and Delilah (Ella Kenion), and 97 younger puppies, whose names also begin with "D," in an epic comedy about family life, multiplied one hundred and one.
The cast list features a whopping 43 performers covering 101 speaking roles, including celebrated U.K. talents such as Stephen Mangan as Doctor Dave, Lauren Donzis as as Destiny and Déjà vu, Abigail Zoe Lewis as Dallas, Akiya Henry as Da Vinci and Roxy, Aimée-Ffion Edwards as Arabella and Big Fee, Joshua LeClair as Hunter, as well as a number of apt young actors voicing the little puppies, including Nefeli Karakosta as Dizzy, Florrie Wilkinson as Dee Dee, and Bert Davis as Diesel.
London-based Oscar and BAFTA-winning Passion Animation Studios employed an international crew of more than 50 artists and serve as lead producers, with Atomic Cartoons (Vancouver) providing animation services. 101 Dalmatian Street was developed by Disney's U.K.-based original animation team with Gigglebug Entertainment (Helsinki), which provided concept development and are creating additional short-form and digital content.
The series is written by Maria O'Loughlin and directed by Miklos Weigert, with Cara Speller as executive producer.

The Sky At Night Looks at Britain in Space
I just managed to catch the weekday repeat a day or so ago of this month's Sky at Night, in which presenters Maggie Aderin-Pocock and British astronaut Tim Peake looked at the history of Britain in space, and forward to the country's future in the deep black. The programme's changed a bit over the past few years in the case of its presenters. It was famously presented by Sir Patrick Moore from its beginning in the 1950s until he passed away a few years ago. This made the programme the longest-running show presented by the same person. Aderin-Pocock joined it before Moore's departure. She's a black woman scientist, with a background in programming missile trajectories. She's obviously very intelligent, enthusiastic and very definitely deserves her place on the show. But I wish she'd done a job that didn't involve the military use of rocket technology, however much this is needed as part of national defence.
Aderin-Pocock was speaking to one of the management officials from Orbex, a new, British company, which has developed a rocket launcher and intends to open a spaceport in one of the more deserted areas of Scotland. The rocket will stand about 17 meters tall, using propane and High Test Peroxide as fuel. High Test Peroxide is a highly concentrated version of the hydrogen peroxide used by hairdressers to bleach peoples' hair. The use of propane is particularly important, as it's lighter than conventional rocket fuels, meaning that the rocket doesn't have to carry as much fuel to lift off into space. Advances in satellite design have also allowed the rocket to be smaller than other spacecraft used elsewhere. British universities have succeeded in developing microsatellites – satellites that are much, much smaller than some of the satellites put into orbit, but which can perform the same functions. As these satellites are smaller and lighter, they only need a relatively smaller, lighter rocket to launch them.
The Scottish launch complex also wasn't going to be as big as other, larger, major launch complexes, such as those of NASA, for example. I think it would still contain a launch tower and control buildings. As well as the official from Orbex, the show also talked to a woman representing the rural community in the part of Scotland, where they were planning to build it. She admitted that there would be problems with building it in this part of the Scots countryside. However, the community was only going to lease the land, not sell it to Orbex, and care would be taken to protect the farms of the local crofters and the environment and wildlife. Like much of rural Britain, this was an area of few jobs, and the population was aging as the young people moved away in search of work. She looked forward to Orbex and its spaceport bringing work to the area, and creating apprenticeships for the local young people.
The programme went on to explain that this would be the first time for decades that a British company was going to build a British rocket to launch a British satellite. From what looked the British space museum in Manchester, Time Peake stood under the display of Britain's Black Knight rocket and the Prospero satellite. He explained how the rocket launched the satellite into space from Australia in 1975. However, the project was then cancelled, which meant that Britain is the only country so far which has developed, and then discarded rocket technology.
But Black Knight wasn't the only space rocket Britain developed. Peake then moved on to talk about Skylark, a massively successful sounding rocket. Developed for high altitude research, the rocket reached a maximum of altitude of 400 km in the few minutes it was in flight. At its apogee – its maximum distance from Earth – the vehicle briefly experienced a few minutes of zero gravity, during which experiments could be performed exploring this environment. The Skylark rocket was used for decades before it was finally cancelled.
Aderin-Pocock asked the official from Orbex how long it would be before the spaceport would be up and running. The manager replied that this was always an awkward question to answer, as there was always something that meant operations and flights would start later than expected. He said, however, that they were aiming at around the end of 2020 and perhaps the beginning of 2021.
Orbex are not, however, the only space company planning to open a spaceport in Britain. Virgin Galactic have their own plans to launch rockets in to space from Cornwall. Their vehicle will not, however, be launched from the ground like a conventional rocket, but will first be carried to a sufficiently high altitude by an airplane, which would then launch it. I'm not a betting man, but my guess is that of the two, Orbex is the far more likely to get off the ground, as it were, and begin launching its rocket on schedule. As I've blogged about previously, Branson has been telling everyone since the late 1990s at least, that Virgin Galactic are going to be flying tourists into space in just a few months from now. This fortnight's Private Eye published a brief list of the number of times Branson had said that, with dates. It might be that Branson will at last send the first of his aspiring astronauts up in the next few months, as he claimed last week. But from his previous form, it seems far more likely that Orbex will start launches before him, as will Branson's competitors over the pond, Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos.
When asked about the company's capability of perfecting their technology, Orbex's manager not stressed the skill and competence of the scientists, technicians and engineers working on the project. This included not just conventional space scientists, but also people, who had personally tried and failed to build their own spacecraft. He said that it was extremely important to fail to build rockets. He's obviously referring to the many non-professional, hobby rocketeers out there trying to build their own spacecraft. He didn't mention them, but one example would be the people at Starchaser, who started out as a small group of enthusiasts in Yorkshire but have gone on to create their own space company, now based across the pond in America. I think it's brilliant that amateurs and semi-professionals have developed skills that the professionals in the industry find valuable. And the failures are important, as they show what can go wrong, and give the experience and necessary information on how to avoid it. I don't think the rocket will be wholly built in this country. The manager said that some of it was being constructed in Copenhagen. This sounds like Copenhagen Suborbitals, a Danish team of rocket scientists, who are trying to put a person into space. They're ex-NASA, I believe, but it's a small, private venture. They have a webpage and have posted videos on YouTube, some of which I've reblogged. They've also said they're keen for people to join them, or start their own rocket projects.
I'd been looking forward to that edition of the Sky at Night for the past week, but when the time came, it slipped my mind that it was on. I'm very glad I was able to catch it. If Orbex are successful, it will be the first time that a British satellite will launch a British satellite from here in Britain. And it sounds really optimistic. Not only will Britain be returning to space rocket development, but the Scots spaceport sounds like it will, hopefully, bring work to a depressed area. I'm also confident that the local environment there will also be preserved. The launch complex around NASA is necessarily so remote from other buildings, that it's actually become a wildlife haven. So much so that it's now a location for birdwatching.
When it was announced that they were planning to build a new spaceport in Scotland, I assumed it would be for Skylon, the British spaceplane. There had been articles in the paper about the spacecraft, which stated that it would be launched either from Scotland or Cornwall. It seems I was wrong, and that it's Orbex's rocket which will be launched there instead. But nevertheless, I wish Orbex every success in their venture, and hope that sometime soon Skylon will also join them in flight out on the High Frontier.

How Donald Trump saved Civilization (and lost the planet)
Just found this…. wow…….
The controversy swirling around murdered Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi has been moving Congress towards sending to the White House an Act* imposing broad sanctions on Saudi Arabia, effectively scrapping billions in pending arms sales.
Representative Adam B. Schiff of California, the senior Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said, "The kingdom and all involved in this brutal murder must be held accountable, and if the Trump administration will not take the lead, Congress must."
In internal discussions, Mr. Kushner has urged the president and his aides not to abandon Prince Mohammed. But as Turkish officials leaked details of the grisly killing of Mr. Khashoggi and of the dismemberment of his body, the White House has become increasingly isolated in its defense of Saudi Arabia.
Take a moment and picture this scenario.
Caving to his image-advisors and pollsters who fret about a Blue Tide surging into key states, POTUS inks the sanctions.
As its mercantile supply line begins to dry up, Saudi Arabia does not blink. It does precisely what it said it would do. It retaliates by hitting the world where it hurts most: the oil supply.
For decades Saudi Arabia has been OPEC's swing vote, able to turn up or down the light sweet crude flowing to international markets. No other producers have either the reserves or production to control the volume and thereby the price of petroleum.
Suppose they tightened the spigot. It would not be enough to merely reduce the flow. If they have learned anything in their years of military alliance with the Great Satan, it is the tactic of Shock and Awe. They close the valves. All of them. Call it the Third Middle East Oil Shock.
In spite of a record production year for the cartel of 32.78 million b/d, US sanctions on Iranian oil and deteriorating output from Venezuela have already begun pushing prices towards $100/barrel. Demand might be marginally slowing in climate-minded Europe or in economically stressed Turkey, Brazil, and Argentina, but in North America and Asia, oil consumption is still on an exponential trajectory. Despite the US's shale oil production having increased at a spectacular annualized rate of over 5 million b/d (estimated), the hole created by Saudi Arabia's withdrawal, accompanied by withdrawal of like supplies from its Middle Eastern OPEC neighbors out of enforced loyalty, would dwarf anything POTUS might have thought he held as a hole card.
Economic ripples became waves. Waves became a tsunami. The price of oil shoots to $400/b virtually overnight. It would take some weeks for that price to pass through refineries and reach retailers but already gas stations around the US jack up the price at the pump.
Then the Seventh Fleet sails into the Straits of Hormuz, but it is too little too late. The supertankers are empty. Short of landing the Marines to take the giant oil fields and recruiting an army of production engineers to run them, military options are few, and costly. Saudi Arabia, after all, is armed with state-of-the-art US weaponry, and with its honor at stake, is entirely capable of self-inflicting scorched earth if push comes to shove.
Meanwhile, back at home, everything descends to chaos. Markets crash. The most-energy-dependent sectors scramble to come up with downscaling plans that could keep the doors open, but within weeks — a month at the most — giants like WalMart and Amazon are shuttering million-square-foot warehouses. Freighters turn back to Shenzhen with full cargoes. Bankers are unwilling to extend lines of credit.
Economic contraction would spread like a pandemic across the face of Europe. It would reach into Russia and China, who had imagined themselves immune, but were already weakened by US economic sanctions. China's giant economy demands 9 million barrels of refined oil each and every day.
Russia, now importing only 30,000 b/d, is likely to be the least harmed by a global energy supply drop, but is helpless to fend off the knock-on effects of global economic downturn, especially when its Chinese trading partner goes belly up. It could extend credit for gas purchases both Eastward and Westward but any expectation that it would be repaid would eventually be dashed. The world economy would be as a boxer who has been struck a knockout blow, still standing, but bound for the canvas.
In Scandinavia and Germany, breadlines form. In Spain and Italy, fascist movements take to the streets and find broad support. We've seen all this before, but this is a different beast. The event will be enormous, and it will be fast.
Central Banks and the Fed can meet in emergency sessions but the tools they used in earlier crises are gone, spent in 2008 and the lingering QE programs. In any case, this situation is not something that can be remedied by rejiggering debt. Energy is not money.
The televised bobbleheads we see wringing their hands over the Khashoggi affair, urging POTUS to stick up for "American values" would be mute. Their communications channels would be shutting down in any event. They might busy themselves thinking how they can feed their families as grocery store shelves go empty.
Of course, the other possibility would be that Donald Trump simply refuses to sign the sanctions bill and thereby saves Civilization. That is, until rising temperatures and rising seas erase it from memory.
Donald Trump has a chance here to do the right thing. He can kill Civilization and save the Earth. He just has to stick it to Saudi Arabia.
* Before Congress can take action of this kind, it is required to first invoke the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act and give the President 120 days to investigate and recommend sanctions. Lawmakers did that on October 18.

rabiddoomsayer (14:23:24) :
Not the way I think it will go down, but not impossible.
Saudi Arabia is on shaky ground, an implosion from within is a much more likely scenario. Perhaps an implosion from within the House of Saud itself, MBS's promotion was not within the accepted rules of sucession and since gaining so much power has done much to alienate other branches of the clan.
Saudi Arabia has started borrowing money, not a good sign for a country that maintains stability by distributing goodies.
DON OWERS (15:07:42) :
Would the Saudi's shut off oil and with it their income? Without food imports there would be riots and the crown prince would be toppled.
Ozquoll (10:47:32) :
I've thought for a while now that Trump just might crash the world economy badly enough to avert the high end of the IPCC warming estimates. I wondered if the huge China tariffs would be the first domino to fall, but the implosion of the US-Saudi Barbaria alliance would do the trick even more effectively. Of course, with our pathetic 19 days of fuel reserves, I expect Australia will be very badly affected if/when the trouble starts.
Alexis TK27 (19:48:20) :
Saudi Arabia is dependent on the US for its defence – its armed forces, lavishly equipped as they are, are mainly for show.
It buys most of its food overseas, like already recalled by Don Owers. They may retain enough assets to buy food even with zero income, but how can the food be delivered if the US Navy blocks the ports?
Seizing the oil fields wouldn't be a difficult task for US forces. As for the foreign engineers and workers to operate them… they are already there! Most of Gulf workers and specialists are not local, they are Americans, Europeans, Asians contractors.
The eventual outcome of Saudi power going berserk, after significant troubles, would be its eviction. In the middle term, infidel forces (Western) would control the Kingdom. In the long term, apostates (Shias, who are the majority of oil producing province) would oust the infidels. And Shias are arch-enemies in the eyes of the Wahhabis, the majority sect in Saudi Arabia.
If Mohammed Ben Salman wished to commit national suicide, he would be stopped by the rest of the Family, the mafia-like group of Saudi royals (thousands of them).
Saudi Arabia might yell, it might even tighten the spigot a little bit to demonstrate bad mood. But if America stopped to sell and most important to maintain the weapons Riyad uses in its murderous war against Yemeni population (up to 13 million people in danger of starvation), that war would rapidly grind to a stop, the Saudi crimes against humankind would be stopped, and Riyad would learn the price of insulting America by murdering a person under US protection (Khashoggi was a resident). The consequences would be entirely positive.
42degreesS (21:00:35) :
Is Donald going to risk getting offside with the military industrial complex that reportedly runs the US with the cancellation of US$600 Billion of arms to Saudi Arabia followed by a backlash of oil embargoes just because the death of one man? I'd suggest the Saudis would stare down any attempt by the US to force them into doing anything against their interests. Besides the fall guys are being lined up as we speak.

Q: Elevator Simulator in Python I need help with an elevator simulator in Python and I don't have much experience.  There should be a user entered amount of customers that have randomized start and destination floors. Right now I'm just coding the simple strategy of the elevator going all the way to the top, and then back to the bottom. When I run my code, the program infinitely loops. I can't figure out why.  Also, I'm not sure how to code my building's output method, which I want to display which customers had which floors and how many floors the elevator visited. Thanks for your help.
import random

class Elevator(object):
    def __init__(self, num_of_floors, register_list, direction = "up", cur_floor=1):
        self.total_floors = num_of_floors
        self.reg_list = register_list
        self.floor = cur_floor
        self.direct = direction
    def move(self):
        """Moves the elevator one floor"""
        if self.total_floors == self.floor:
            self.direct = "down"
        if self.direct == "up":
            self.floor += 1
        else:
            self.floor -= 1
    def register_customer(self, customer):
        self.reg_list.append(customer)
    def cancel_customer(self, customer):
        self.reg_list.remove(customer)

class Building(object):
    def __init__(self, num_of_floors, customer_list, elevator):
        self.total_floors = num_of_floors
        self.customers = customer_list
    def run(self):
        while elevator.floor != 0:
            for customer in self.customers:
                if elevator.floor == customer.on_floor:
                    elevator.reg_list.append(customer)
                    customer.indicator = 1
                elif elevator.floor == customer.going_floor:
                    elevator.reg_list.remove(customer)
                    customer.indicator = 0
                    customer.fin = 1
            elevator.move()

    def output(self):
        pass

class Customer(object):
    def __init__(self, ID, num_of_floors, cur_floor=0, dst_floor=0, in_elevator=0, finished=0):
        self.ident = ID
        self.indicator = in_elevator
        self.fin = finished
        cur_floor = random.randint(1, num_of_floors)
        self.on_floor = cur_floor
        dst_floor = random.randint(1, num_of_floors)
        while dst_floor == cur_floor:
            dst_floor = random.randint(1, num_of_floors)
        self.going_floor = dst_floor

customer_count = int(input("How many customers are in the building?: "))
floor_count = int(input("How many floors does the building have?: "))
cus_list = []
for i in range(1, customer_count+1):
    cus_list.append(Customer(i, floor_count))
elevator = Elevator(floor_count, cus_list)
building = Building(floor_count, cus_list, elevator)

A: Your problem lies here:
def run(self):
    while elevator.floor != 0:
        print(elevator.floor)
        for customer in self.customers:
            print(customer)
            if elevator.floor == customer.on_floor:
                elevator.reg_list.append(customer)
                customer.indicator = 1
            elif elevator.floor == customer.going_floor:
                elevator.reg_list.remove(customer)
                customer.indicator = 0
                customer.fin = 1
        elevator.move()

When you do elevator.reg_list.append(customer), you are re-appending the customer to the list, increasing it size (self.customers is also a reference to this same list) so the "for customer in self.customers" loops forever.
Lets follow "cus_list" :
elevator = Elevator(floor_count, cus_list)
building = Building(floor_count, cus_list, elevator)

class Building(object):
    def __init__(self, num_of_floors, customer_list, elevator):
        self.total_floors = num_of_floors
        self.customers = customer_list

class Elevator(object):
    def __init__(self, num_of_floors, register_list, direction = "up", cur_floor=1):
        self.total_floors = num_of_floors
        self.reg_list = register_list # <-------- THIS IS "cus_list" reference

Finally in class Building:
 elevator.reg_list.append(customer)

elevator is a global variable here created outside the scope of the class FYI.
A fix may be as follows
The elevator starts out empty right?
class Elevator(object):
    def __init__(self, num_of_floors, register_list, direction = "up", cur_floor=1):
        self.total_floors = num_of_floors
        self.reg_list = []

Maha Abdelhamid (), née à Gabès, est une géographe et militante antiraciste tunisienne.

Biographie
Originaire de Gabès, où elle effectue ses études primaires et secondaires, elle rejoint Tunis en 1996 pour poursuivre ses études universitaires après l'obtention d'un baccalauréat littéraire. Elle obtient une maîtrise en histoire et se lance dans des études doctorales en géographie sociale.

Maha Abdelhamid est chercheuse associée au Centre arabe de recherches et d'études politiques.

Très sensible aux discriminations de couleurs, Maha Abdelhamid est une pionnière dans la lutte contre le racisme en Tunisie. Elle commence à militer sur les réseaux sociaux avant de fonder en 2012 avec Houda Mzioudet et d'autres militantes antiracistes l'association ADAM pour l'égalité et le développement, la première association pour la défense des Noirs en Tunisie.

Maha Abdelhamid est membre du Comité pour le respect des libertés et droits de l'homme en Tunisie (CRLDHT) et participe à l'organisation de plusieurs mobilisations en Tunisie, comme la caravane des marcheurs contre le racisme ralliant Djerba à Tunis en 2014.

En 2020, déçue par l'exclusion et l'invisibilité des femmes noires en Tunisie et même dans l'espace féministe, Maha Abdelhamid s'indigne et déclare : . Elle lance le 23 janvier de la même année, avec d'autres militantes, le premier mouvement de femmes noires tunisiennes : Voix des femmes tunisiennes noires, dont le but est d'encourager les femmes noires tunisiennes à s'affirmer et se débarrasser de l'invisibilité que leur impose la société. Le choix de la date n'est pas anodin puisque le 23 janvier est une date symbolique correspondant à la date d'abolition de l'esclavage en Tunisie en 1846.

Travaux
Les travaux de Maha Abdelhamid portent sur les minorités en Afrique du Nord et au Moyen-Orient, sur les milieux ruraux et les différentes discriminations dans une perspective d'intersectionnalité.

Elle est l'autrice du documentaire De Arram à Gabès, mémoire d'une famille noire qui retrace la vie de sa famille sur trois générations.

Keeping a vacancy open is costly, not only because of the ongoing costs associated with advertising on job boards, but in lost earnings too. Studies show that good employees generate 3-5 times their annual salary in value. So, let's do some basic maths: If you leave a £50k role vacant for just one month, a business could lose upwards of £12,000. Recruiters are focussed on nothing else but filling those types of roles, they are familiar with the process, and quick to filter out unsuitable candidates. As a result, your vacancy gets filled sooner and lost earnings are reduced.
To sum up: a recruiter is "out there", talking to candidates daily, evangelising about your company without you having to move a muscle. Whatever your personal feelings were at the start of this article, we hope you can see it makes good business sense to use a recruiter, especially when you find one you like and trust.

The Reverend Ian Richard Kyle Paisley (born April 6, 1926 - September 12, 2014) was a politician and church leader in Northern Ireland.

"There's a silence in this house today. There's a silence all over Northern Ireland today. There's grieving and there is despair. But behind the despair, there is being born a unity that we haven't seen before... I would like to commend publicly here today the priest of Antrim, the Roman Catholic priest. He made one of the greatest speeches I've ever heard from any of the cloth and he really said in Down to everyone that he did not want in his parish anybody like these men who did this task. And those of us who know Northern Ireland know that it takes some show of strength in a place like Antrim to say those words... We're coming up to St. Patrick's Day. St. Patrick preached the gospel of Jesus Christ in Ireland. And I was just thinking today, the only thing these murderers have done: they have desecrated the shamrock by trying to pour the blood of their innocent victims upon it."
Speaking in the House of Commons after the shooting dead of two unarmed British soldiers outside Massereene Barracks in March 2009.[[1]]
"I say to the Dublin government, Mr Faulkner says it's "hands across the border to Dublin". I say, if they don't behave themselves in the South, it will be shots across the border!"
In response to Northern Ireland Prime Minister Brian Faulkner's signing of the Sunningdale Agreement with the Republic of Ireland in 1974 [[2]]
"People don't expect to die tomorrow, but they do take out insurance, don't they?"

"Don't come crying to me if your homes are attacked. You will reap what you sow".
After been forcibly carried out from the Assembly building by police(1986)[[4]]
"We're on the verge of civil war in Northern Ireland. Why? Because if you take away the forums of democracy you don't have anything left."
"I have read in the Book of Revelation the power of the word of testimony, but I never realised what power was in a martyr's testimony. If I had brought a ton of explosives and let them off in that Assembly it could not have had a greater effect. That vast Assembly erupted, and the books started to fly and the punches started to be thrown, and the kicking started, but I held my ground and maintained my testimony. THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EUROPE TODAY AND EUROPE IN REFORMATION TIMES. This afternoon I read again the story of Luther, at the Diet of Worms. Who presided over the Diet of Worms? The Emperor Charles, Head of the Holy Roman Empire. Who was he? He was a Habsburg. It is interesting to note that one of the men who attacked me is the last of the Habsburgs-Otto Habsburg, the Pretender to the Crown of Austria and Hungary. I said to myself, 'The Habsburgs are still lusting for Protestant blood. They are still the same as they were in the days of Luther.' The members of the Roman Catholic Party of Mr. Le Pen of which John Taylor is a member were round me battering away at me as hard as they could"

Michigan basketball team to face Minnesota in Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals
By Nick Baumgardner
Joe Coleman and Minnesota held off Northwestern and will face Michigan on Friday in the Big Ten Tournament.
INDIANAPOLIS — Instead of having to worry about beating Northwestern for a third straight time, the Michigan basketball team will have a different concern Friday.
Figuring out how to beat Minnesota for a second time.
The 10th-seeded Golden Gophers pulled off the first upset of the 2012 Big Ten Tournament on Thursday, knocking off No. 7 Northwestern, 75-68 in overtime, to advance to the tournament quarterfinals.
Minnesota (19-13) will play No. 2 Michigan at 6:30 p.m. Friday (Big Ten Network)
Playing without 6-foot-11 big man Ralph Sampson III — who reportedly suffered a knee injury earlier this week in practice — the Golden Gophers got a game-high 25 points from freshman guard Andre Hollins to knock off the Wildcats, likely ending Northwestern's NCAA tournament hopes.
Sampson's status moving forward is unknown.
"We know that (Michigan) is a team that can shoot the 3 really well, just like Northwestern," Minnesota junior Rodney Williams said. "They run the same kind of offense and defense, but we've just got to come out and play our style of ball."
Northwestern held a two-point lead in the final minute of regulation, but a bucket from Hollins with 55 seconds to go tied things up, eventually sending the game to overtime.
In the extra session, Austin Hollins and Julian Welch hit back-to-back triples to give the WIldcats a four-point lead less than two minutes in.
The Wildcats pulled within one, but back-to-back buckets from Andre Hollins and Williams swelled the lead back to four, and effectively iced the game.
Michigan played Minnesota once this season, a 61-56 home victory on Jan. 1.
Virtually every player on the Wolverine roster that day had a bad outing, except freshman point guard Trey Burke. Burke dropped in a season-high 27 points on 8-of-11 shooting.
"We couldn't stop Trey Burke on the pick and roll," Williams said after the game. "He had 27 points tonight, and that was all him just getting to the rack and the free throw line."
The Minnesota game also marked one of the worst individual performances this season by Tim Hardaway Jr., who finished with seven points on 2-for-14 shooting. The Wolverines shot just 38.5 percent for the game, which went down as a season-worst at the time.
Hardaway did have one bright moment, though, burying a 12-footer with 35.1 seconds to go to essentially ice a game that Michigan never really had full control of.
This will be the fourth meeting between Michigan and Minnesota in Big Ten Tournament play. The Wolverines scored wins over the Golden Gophers in 1998 and 2007, and lost in 2006.
The prevailing notion entering the tournament, from most coaches, was that Michigan and Northwestern were the two toughest one-day preps.
But whether or not the Wolverines and Wildcats run similarly difficult sets doesn't concern Minnesota coach Tubby Smith.
He understands that Michigan is a different animal altogether, and says his team now has its work cut out for it.
"They're tough, regardless," Smith said. "They're playing with a lot of confidence, they've got some talented players and we haven't seen them in a long time.
"We'll have our hands full, it's always tough prep for a John Beilein team."

Minnesota beating Northwestern is not a surprise for me even with Sampson unable to play. Minnesota is a tough team as Michigan found out in January. Michigan may have had one of its poorest performances against Minnesota but that may reflect well on Minnesota's defense. I hope that Trey Burke, Tim Hardaway, Jr. and Evan Smotrycz will play consistently well because otherwise Michigan may not beat Minnesota.

Q: MariaDB SELECT query with date_add() I have this particular salect query which acts strange:
(1)
select date_add(
        CURRENT_DATE(),
        INTERVAL 7*0+(CASE
                        WHEN tutoring_disponibilities.day < weekday(CURRENT_DATE())
                        THEN 7+(tutoring_disponibilities.day-weekday(CURRENT_DATE()))
                        ELSE tutoring_disponibilities.day-weekday(CURRENT_DATE())
                        END
                    )
        DAY
    ) from tutoring_disponibilities where date_add(
        CURRENT_DATE(),
        INTERVAL 7*0+(CASE
                        WHEN tutoring_disponibilities.day < weekday(CURRENT_DATE())
                        THEN 7+(tutoring_disponibilities.day-weekday(CURRENT_DATE()))
                        ELSE tutoring_disponibilities.day-weekday(CURRENT_DATE())
                        END
                    )
        DAY
    ) NOT IN (SELECT date(tutoring_sessions.startDate) from tutoring_sessions);

This returns nothing, but this (which is the first part of the where):
(2)
select date_add(
        CURRENT_DATE(),
        INTERVAL 7*0+(CASE
                        WHEN tutoring_disponibilities.day < weekday(CURRENT_DATE())
                        THEN 7+(tutoring_disponibilities.day-weekday(CURRENT_DATE()))
                        ELSE tutoring_disponibilities.day-weekday(CURRENT_DATE())
                        END
                    )
        DAY
    )
    from tutoring_disponibilities;

returns:
'2020-03-30'
'2020-03-30'
'2020-03-31'
'2020-03-31'
'2020-03-25'
'2020-03-25'

and this part:
(3)
SELECT date(tutoring_sessions.startDate) from tutoring_sessions;

returns this:
'2020-01-29'
NULL
NULL
NULL
'2020-02-05'
'2020-02-05'
'2020-02-10'
'2020-02-11'
'2020-02-18'
'2020-02-17'
'2020-02-25'
'2020-02-24'
'2020-03-02'
'2020-03-09'
'2020-03-16'
'2020-03-23'
'2020-02-13'
'2020-02-13'
'2020-02-13'
'2020-02-24'
'2020-02-29'
'2020-03-14'
'2020-03-30'
'2020-03-30'
'2020-03-30'

We can see that '2020-03-30'is in the results of query (3) and also in the results of query (2), but the other results of query (2) are not present in the results of query (3).
So why query(1) doesn't return anything?
If you know a better way to express this code I would be glad of any kind of help!

A: My recommendation is not to use NOT IN with subqueries.  The reason is that any NULL value in the subquery causes no rows to be returned.
I recommend NOT EXISTS.  However, your expression is rather complicated, so the simplest fix to your query is:
NOT IN (SELECT date(tutoring_sessions.startDate)
        FROM tutoring_sessions
        WHERE tutoring_sessions.startDate IS NOT NULL
       )

With an index on tutoring_sessions(startDate), the equivalent NOT EXISTS may also be noticeably faster.


Former AFP Commissioner Mick Keelty has been recruited to make sure water users in the Northern Basin are doing the right thing.
The highly decorated police officer will become the Northern Basin Commissioner to make sure the Northern Basin Review is implemented and the rules of the Basin Plan are followed.
Minister for Water Resources David Littleproud said there was no better person to take on the job.
"Mick Keelty spent decades keeping Australians safe and now he'll be keeping precious water safe," Minister Littleproud said.
"With 35 distinguished years in the AFP, this is exactly the leader we need in the Northern Basin.
"No honest user has anything to fear from compliance.
"He will bring a firm but fair hand to the job.
"As Commissioner he strengthened the AFP and made it a world-class security force.
"He will help give communities up and down the basin confidence in the Murray-Darling Basin Plan."
The Northern Basin Commissioner role was created as part of the 7 May 2018 agreement with Labor that revived the Murray-Darling Basin Plan.
"This is a great outcome and it just goes to show what can be done when we all work together," Minister Littleproud said.
"I congratulate Mr Keelty on his new role and look forward to his work securing Australia's water."

This weekend has been a busy one, spent mostly doing housework, tackling laundry and cooking in readiness for next weekend, when we have another event. I've snatched the odd moment for a little knitting, crochet and spinning here and there, but mostly my craft activities have been limited to thinking about doing stuff rather than actually making anything.
This is my new spinning wheel courtesy of Kellie, who was looking to pass it onto a good home as she has another one which she uses with this one going spare. So far, I've barely touched it as Dave took charge of the wheel, whisking it off to the shed on Saturday afternoon, where he is cleaning, glueing, oiling and generally giving it a bit of TLC. Once he's done, I'm going to need to learn how to use it, but I'll sort that out when I've got a little more free time.
While I wait for Dave to return the wheel to me and for enough time to sort out either suitable reading material or a lesson or two, I have of course been continuing to work with my spindle. And I think I'm beginning to get the hang of it.
I had to unload the spindle a few weeks ago, dropping the spun single onto a cardboard tube where it will stay until I have enough to ply. I immediately started another batch which as hopefully you can see, is coming along nicely. I'm still slow, but considerably faster than I was the first few weeks until a quick lesson from Kellie who showed me how use the park and draft method properly. The main holdup is just not having enough hours in the day generally at the mo.


Man, look at this badboy. Sitting there all pretty-like. Causing drool and wallet problems.
No, I'm not buying one, but I'll be working on a project with it, which is exciting. I feel a camera phase coming on, as presaged by the photos that have been cropping up here again, which is a side effect of me actually taking photos, after what seemed like a year-long break. What can I say, these things go in cycles.
Would be nice to have something that wide (24mm equivalent) with a pretty blurry background like that.
The GH2 is out, which should tempt me to upgrade, but I'm more interested in new lenses, as the new body doesn't seem crazy better.
had this in my instapaper cue for ages. Anyway it's pretty fascinating.
Minnan-Wong's conversion to bike advocate is fascinating. Still lots of potential pitfalls including incomplete lanes and the proposed Richmond lane, which I can't imagine will get built without a big outcry.
not in Canada they ain't. I love netflix, but a few months in the shallow catalog is starting to feel pretty constraining up here.
L.A. Noire comes out tomorrow. I'm ready.
aqua-superman, more like. It sprays water.
in which the author rails against the rhetorical dishonesty of the term 'gamification'. That's because points, badges, etc. are external rewards systems (or as Bogost puts it, gestures that provide structure and measure progress), whereas the addictiveness of games comes largely from intrinsic rewards, i.e. enjoyable game mechanics.
damn, son. Hope none of you torrented The Expendables.

Last May YouTube celebrated its sixth birthday with an announcement that more than 48 hours of video were being uploaded every minute and that the site was racking up 3 billion daily views. In January of this year, they increased that number to 60 hours of video per minute and now, to celebrate birthday number 7 YouTube has announced that a whopping 72 hours of video is being uploaded to the site every minute!
To commemorate their seventh birthday, YouTube has put together a video timeline showing off the growth of the site through the year. It features some of the biggest YouTube videos and news from throughout the years, as well as statistics that illustrate the site's growth over time.
The speed at which YouTube is growing is pretty astonishing. In one year they went from having 48 hours of video a minute to 72—that's three days a minute! How long do you think it will be before four days of video are being uploaded every minute? When, if ever, will things start to level out?

Cultivating Critical Connection: The Culture of Radical Engagement Residency
Ethics & the Common Good Project is deeply committed to cultivating our collective capacity for empathy, connection, collaboration, and action. We call this collective capacity relational leadership. Rather than focusing on building individual leadership skills, our approach is to use storytelling, empathic listening, and embodied practices to build strong bonds, bridge differences, and share leadership as a community. These relational leadership practices support our work in shifting the culture of Hampshire College away from isolation, competition and judgment, and towards a culture of equity, interdependence, resilience, and abundance.
We began our experiment in relational leadership with the Culture of Radical Engagement Residency. This week-long residency was hosted from February 21-27, 2016 and led by trainers Cedar Landsman (99F) and Lucien Demaris, co-directors of Relational Uprising, as a way to engage our entire campus and explore what relational organizing and shared leadership could look like for our student, staff, faculty, and administrative communities.
The vision for the residency grew out of a training session held by Cedar and Lucien in August 2015. The training was a rich and powerful experience that offered those of us who attended a framework and practice that could help us address the culture of isolation, competition, and judgement that we had experienced on campus and in the wider world. From this, a seed team was born to expand our relational storytelling and resonance skills and to design the residency as a vehicle for sharing this knowledge with others on campus.
The residency week kicked off with an introduction to the Culture of Radical Engagement framework, which draws on social capital research, social neuroscience, radical relational theory, community organizing, and somatic education to offer a nuanced approach to issues of identity, intersectionality, and privilege using an embodied, relational practice. The week continued with a series of introductory workshops for students, staff, faculty, and administrators, addressing the questions of "how can we create an inclusive, empathic, interdependent, and relational culture on campus?" and "how can we prepare leaders to confront the complex challenges in our community and our world with humanizing values?" In these workshops, we focused on:
strengthening bonds, developing and maintaining strong interdependent relationships through the cultivation of collective resonance, a transformative experience of group empathy;
building bridges, increasing our collective capacity to radically include diverse perspectives and experiences, manage complexity, and bridge people and communities together in solidarity;
and sharing leadership, modeling collaborative leadership practices that distribute support and responsibility equitably and create greater resilience for our communities.
The residency culminated in a day-long convening for participants to deepen skills and connections built throughout the week.
The residency made space to explore the challenges we face and the support we cultivate around issues of communication, conflict, and difference. It invited us to imagine and practice more generative and equitable ways of relating to ourselves, each other, and our community at Hampshire College. As our relational leadership development evolves, we continue to empower our community members to share, teach, and model with compassion by equipping them with the skills and knowledge to actively engage in building an ethic of solidarity and care.

ARISING EMPIRE
Aurora (2LP)
Annisokay
Gate Fold Vinyl
1021058AEP
ANNISOKAY - the German Rock / Metal band is releasing its fifth studio album »Aurora« in 2020 and is reinventing themselves. Old braids were literally cut off and a new front man brought on board. The musical foundation has remained. Heavy guitar riffs and driving drum rhythms, paired with a mix of melodic goosebumps singing and aggressive shouts. Rudi Schwarzer is now responsible for the latter. The new front man was already able to convince the fans live. ANNISOKAY played the X-Mas Bash Tour together with the EMIL BULLS in winter 2019. In winter 2020 the new album "Aurora" will follow in a completely new guise. As usual, guitarist and singer Christoph Wieczorek is in charge of the production, whose charismatic and melodic voice will continue to provide goosebumps. The quartet is completed by the rhythm group, consisting of drummer Nico Vaeen and bassist Norbert Rose. ANNISOKAY was founded in 2007 and has since been considered one of the most talented German bands with an international flair. The band has already played successful tours in Europe, Great Britain, Japan and the USA. With several headline shows in Russia, Belarus and the Ukraine, the band gained a loyal and massively growing fan base. The highlights were support shows for PARKWAY DRIVE in sold out halls in Moscow and St.Petersburg.

'This last dance is for you mate' - Norwich dad who died before Creamfields festival gets to go one last time
The family of Stuart Mitchell who took his own life in July re-sold his ticket and included a note with a special request
The ashes of a dad-of-one from Norwich were fired out of a confetti cannon over a huge crowd by Creamfields headliner Tiesto last weekend.
In a spectacular finale, the remains of 30-year-old Stuart Mitchell were sent up into the sky while around 70,000 ravers danced the night away in the fields of Daresbury, Cheshire.
Mr Mitchell was a keen gamer and took his own life in July. He was set to attend the annual festival and had already purchased his tickets.

Cousins Ryan and Liam Millen from Liverpool bought the tickets when they saw them re-advertised online. The tickets arrived in an envelope but came with a second envelope which contained some of Stuart's ashes.

Stuart's family had asked the cousins to spread his ashes around Creamfields as it was an event he loved to attend.
Ryan arranged for a banner to be made which included a photo of the dad-of-one holding his three-year-old son, Oliver, with the message: "This last dance is for you mate."
The cousin duo carried the banner around the festival all weekend and Ryan managed to get it on the main stage. The festival organisers then suggested getting Tiesto to fire Stuart's ashes out of a confetti cannon during his headlining finale.

Ryan, from Halewood, said: "Words cannot express our gratitude to his family for allowing us, to everyone who listened to his story and took pictures with the banner, and most importantly to the Creamfields production team for going above and beyond to accommodate us and go out of their way to allow us to honour his memory in such a fitting way.
"Stuart Mitchell, we are humbled to have been allowed to help you complete your journey with us.
"You will forever be a part of one of your favourite places.
"A piece of you always be with Creamfields."
The Millens later found out that Tiesto's version of Adagio For Strings had been played at his funeral and they have become firm friends of the Mitchell family since news of their accomplishments emerged.
Ryan, 34, added: "I'm bowled over by what happened.
"When Stuart's ashes were fired out, my heart literally skipped a beat, I was lost for words and beside myself.
"We were privileged to honour him in such a way."
An online campaign is now underway to raise money for an online memorial to Stuart - to donate, visit here.

Uganda is known as the Pearl of Africa. Travelers usually head to the western, southwestern and northern regions of the country to spot mountain gorillas in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, see elephants in Queen Elizabeth National Park and go on safari in Kidepo. We've been to Uganda a few times, but our work has kept us focused on Mbale and the surrounding areas (no time or money to go on a big African safari). The Brandt Uganda Travel Guide describes Mbale as a town to pass through, not stay in. It dismisses the eastern region like US travel guides dismiss Ohio (our home state), but we disagree. Mbale is paradise. From any point in the city you can see Wanale Ridge, part of the Mount Elgon range. Wanale is dotted with tiny thatched-roof homes and terraced gardens. Men and women run down the steep mountain paths with jerry cans of water and cooking oil, bananas, and other heavy bundles perfectly balanced on their heads. Children climb trees and play football with their homemade soccer balls. Farmers cultivate every inch of the arable land, the soil is so rich. Wanale Ridge is such a grounding force in Mbale, especially when you're in town, amidst the hustle and bustle of urban life.
Last Sunday, we had some free time and decided to walk up Wanale. It certainly wasn't a gorilla trek and we didn't see any giraffes or cute tree monkeys, but we did witness some of the most beautiful views and landscape we've ever seen. Banyan trees, wild flowers, granite and limestone rocks, lush banana and coffee plantations, cows and goats grazing on land that seemed to be on top of the world–we didn't need to go on safari to see Uganda's bounty, beauty and might.
I am so tickled with this blog. Each post takes me to Uganda.
Thanks so much for updating regularly, and thanks for the incredible work you're all doing.
I am so proud to know all of you.
