Q: Python list within list So i'm still pretty new to python, and I can't find a solution to this anywhere.
I need to recall a variable from list within a list:
data_sets = [
    ['O', ['1', 'place1', 'method1']],
    ['X', ['1', 'place2', 'method1']],

I need to be able to extract each one in context of the others: Item 1 goes in place 1, in this method vs item 1 goes in place 2 in this method, not just the whole line, or a 'contains'
print(data_sets[1])

Just prints the whole line - I need to call each word specifically for when it starts to have multiples in one...
['O', ['1', 'place4', 'method2'],
      ['2', 'place3', 'method2']],

The obvious data_sets[1,[2]] doesn't work.
Thanks

A: data_sets[1]

this will return
['O', ['1', 'place1', 'method1']]

now think of this as another list that data_sets[1] has returned, now you can apply another index based unwrapping. like data_set[1][0] will return 0

A: The syntax data_sets[1, [2]] is slightly off, the correct way is
data_sets[1][2]

A: You can use this code:
def accessor(lst):
for i in range(0, len(lst)):
    if type(lst[i])==int or type(lst[i])==float or type(lst[i])==str:
        print(lst[i])
    else:
        accessor(lst[i])
lst=[4, (2,3,[2,3,4],6), 7,5, 4.5, [6,2,4,['lk',4,5,(75,'ll')]], 'aditya', 7] #list contains a combination of int, float, str, list and tuple
accessor(lst)

As you can see that the given list contains combination of elements of various types along with multiple nested lists/tuples. It will also work with tuples
Hope this helps.

Danbury Mayor Responds to Opponent: 'He Thinks He Can Do Better?'
Lou Milano Published: January 20, 2023
On Tuesday (1/17/23) Danbury Democrat Roberto Alves announced he'd run for Mayor, challenging incumbent Dean Esposito.
Roberto Alves wasted no time taking swings at his opponent in the media. Alves made comments in his press release and on the I-95 Morning Show that were critical of the current administration. In the opening press release he said "we (Danbury) deserve better." On the I-95 Morning Show Alves said "people are great, our businesses are great, I just think that leadership isn't."
Dean Esposito made a guest appearance on the I-95 Morning Show on Thursday (1/19/23), we asked him if he'd heard the comments, and what he thought? This is what the Mayor had to say:
"I think some of comments he made yesterday were not out-of-line, but we've been doing the job here in the city of Danbury for over a year now. He almost criticized us for one year in and we need to make changes. But, we've been doing an outstanding job as far as my administration and I'm concerned. Roberto has every right to run again obviously he's a family man. I know he's putting a lot of pressure on his family but the reality is, I think my opportunity to move forward as the Mayor of Danbury. This is the best thing that ever happened to me. I've explained it to you guys before, I couldn't be more proud than to be the Mayor of the city I was born and raised in."

Later, we read the Mayor quotes and asked Esposito if he thought Alves was out-of-line, this was his response:
"Yeah, I do a little bit because he said it himself, the city is awesome, the people are awesome, things are running well, we're working on education and the biggest issues facing the city. I've taken him head on and to say that leadership is not doing well, I question that. Why would he say that? Was it the alternative that he thinks he can do better? We'll get into that during the campaign but I'm confident in what we've been doing for the past year."
This is the second time the two men will have faced-off on the campaign trail with the first victory going to Dean Esposito.
Listen to Esposito's reactions to Alves' comments below.
The Mayor believes having to run for Mayor every two years is detrimental to the city.
We also managed to work some fun into the interview when Large Dave asked the Mayor about the infamous golden scissors. The City of Danbury has a pair of ceremonial scissors that they bring to ribbon cuttings and I've threatened to steal them. When the Mayor answers, it jarred free an observation about his staff members.

You can listen to the unedited, full-length version of the interview below.
Esposito VS. Alves: A Complete Breakdown of Danbury's 2021 Mayoral Race
Voting in a local election is one the best ways to express your beliefs and immediately impact the world around you but how can you really know a candidate from a few quotes in the local newspaper? You can't.
The paper cannot give you a sense for the candidates personality nor can they show you how the person performs under pressure. A radio interview is a much more intimate thing and you can learn who your local candidates are on a deeper level.
In the weeks leading up to the 2021 Danbury Mayoral Election, we believe we have provided Hat City voters with an unbiased view of their options. Each Friday we brought Roberto Alves and Dean Esposito on the Ethan and Lou Show and asked them both the same questions.
Because the person who goes last, has the ability/advantage of answering to the first candidate, we would alternate the order every few weeks. We did not endorse either candidate, we simply gave an even portrait of the two men, their politics and their vision for Danbury.
This is a look back at the I-95 Election coverage for you to review the day before Election. Below you will be given an excerpt from each article we did with the candidates and a link that can redirect you to the full article. Most of the articles include full interviews we conducted with your candidates, Vote tomorrow, it matters.
Mayor Joe Cavo Wrapping Up Virtual Restaurant Month in Danbury

Take a look at where our Mayor has been.
Want more Danbury news? If so, check out the Ethan, Lou & Large Dave Podcast. The show is available wherever you get your podcasts, including Apple and Spotify. The program is the same one we do on the radio but with limited commercials and no music. You can also listen live by streaming the show on the I-95 Rock Mobile app, or tune into I-95 (95.1FM).

Former President Bill Clinton campaigns for Mary Burke
Posted: Oct 24, 2014 8:27 PM CST | Updated: Aug 19, 2015 1:38 PM CST
Former President Bill Clinton campaigned Friday for democratic business executive Mary Burke. Nearly 900 people showed up to the event. President Clinton touched on several hot topic issues, including raising the minimum wage.
\"If you raised it to twenty dollars an hour it would cause a real burden on small businesses. No one is proposing that, but if you raise it to keep up with inflation then millions of other Americans that are just above that, they get a pay raise too,\" said Former President Clinton.
Clinton reminded the crowd that he passed legislation to raise minimum wage by 90 cents back in 1996. It went from $4.95 to $5.15.
\"You're lifting America from the bottom up. You're lifting Wisconsin from the bottom up,\" said Clinton.
Late Thursday night a source close to Governor Walker told CBS 58 News that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie will be coming back to Wisconsin to campaign for the incumbent.
The visit will happen some time next week, but there are no details yet on the exact time and place.
The election is November 4th. Early voting is underway.
Milwaukee election officials believe as many as 30,000 people will cast an early ballot by Halloween.

Holy Roman filly stars in G2 May Hill Stakes
Qatar Racing's Rich Legacy (2f Holy Roman Emperor-Borghesa, by Galileo) ran out a gutsy winner of the G2 May Hill Stakes at Doncaster on Thursday.
Having been held up in mid-division during the early stages of the mile contest, the well-backed 3/1 second-favourite launched a powerful assault on the lead under Oisin Murphy at the furlong pole.
The two-year-old daughter of Holy Roman Emperor stayed on resolutely for Murphy's urgings in the closing stages to register a game three-quarter length success from Grecian Light.
Trainer Ralph Beckett said: "She raced very lazily but she really put it to bed well. I thought we were beat when she came past me at the half-furlong pole but she really came forward and did it well in the end. We didn't think of her as a lazy filly. She is a typical breeze-up filly. She surprised us winning first time out [Newmarket] as she hadn't shown us that form at home but they are often the best ones who save it for the track."
Beckett suggested a possible tilt at the G1 Prix Marcel Boussac at Chantilly in October on Arc day was on the cards. "She is in the Prix Marcel Boussac but we will see what we do with her. I wouldn't mind running her again this year," he added.
Winning rider Oisin Murphy added: "I was exactly where I wanted to be. The headwind is strong and she got a little bit lonely in front, but once she got in a battle she is clearly the best filly. Ralph said she would win and he was right. She loved every yard of the trip and you'd say she'd get further in time."
Bred in Ireland by Gestut Ammerland, Rich Legacy was bought for €75,000 by David Redvers at the Arqana Breeze-Up Sale in May.

IBM Aims to Attract Cloud Startups with New Entrepreneur Program
Written by Chris Talbot 1
IBM is the latest of the big cloud services providers to take aim at startups. The vendor has introduced a new program, dubbed the IBM Global Entrepreneur Program for Cloud Startups, to offer up to $120,000 in IBM Cloud credits to eligible firms.
IBM (IBM) is the latest of the big cloud services providers to take aim at startups. The vendor has introduced a new program, dubbed the IBM Global Entrepreneur Program for Cloud Startups, to offer up to $120,000 in IBM Cloud credits to eligible firms.
The new program could help to onboard cloud services providers and cloud developers to the IBM Cloud and tie them into the growing IBM Cloud ecosystem. Big Blue seems hopeful it can attract these startups and entrepreneurs, and then "deeply connect" them its network of enterprise customers, consultants and Innovation Centers.
According to IBM, the program will also help cloud startups and entrepreneurs to more rapidly build their services and solutions, scale quickly and accelerate their growth.
"As the breadth of services, capabilities and partners using the IBM Cloud continues to grow, making our cloud more accessible to early-stage startups around the world is critical to accelerating innovation in a tremendous rage of industries—from health care to banking and everything in between," said Sandy Carter, general manager of Ecosystem Development at IBM, in a prepared statement. "What the tech industry can do with big data, analytics and cognitive computing via the cloud is limitless, and helping push these ideas to the forefront of what larger enterprises are thinking and demanding for their customers will help solve some of the largest challenges facing businesses today."
Qualifying startups can receive up to $120,000 in IBM Cloud credits, which could go a long way toward hosting their cloud services on IBM's infrastructure. It will likely enable several startups and entrepreneurs to get up and running quicker, as well as allowing them to scale faster. IBM noted that it also provides them the ability to focus more on coding, building, scaling and bringing their cloud services to market.

Pack Expo has traditionally been a packaging trade show, but as functions within and between supply chain partners overlap, this event has become a destination both for multi-disciplinary teams and multi-skilled individuals.
Pack Expo Las Vegas 2011 happens September 26-28 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Attendees will have access to more than 1,600 exhibitors showcasing their processing and packaging innovations. This year's event is designed to cater to supply chain and operations managers and their processing and packaging teams looking for total systems solutions addressing challenges in efficiency, speed and sustainability.
"As more consolidation is happening and more savings are being sought by manufacturers, it seems like the person responsible for packaging is the same as the one responsible for processing and the same person responsible for in-plant logistics," says Jorge Izquierdo, vice president of marketing and development for Pack Expo.
These are the types of people who will be attending Pack Expo in force, in response to market pressures.
PMMI is also inviting 100 industry professionals to share some of their concerns and address potential solutions during several focus groups. As a result of this exercise PMMI will come up with an industry report.
The "Innovation Stage Program" will present a series of live seminars on the show floor inside three industry-specific lounges: The Baking and Snack Break, The Candy Bar and The Rx Lounge. Three 30-minute live seminars will be held in each lounge on Monday, September 26, and Tuesday, September 27. Seminars will begin at 11 a.m., 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. each day.
You can preview some of those solutions below.
The Reusable Packaging Association will present two conference sessions as part of the Sustainability Track of the Conference at PACK EXPO Las Vegas. The educational sessions are designed to help attendees address key issues facing users and potential users of reusable packaging.
Session One: Reusables 102 - Implementing a Sustainable Reusable Transport Packaging System; Monday, September 26.
Session Two: Managing and Protecting Your Reusable Packaging Assets; Tuesday, September 27.
About 50% of vibration based damage to rotating machinery is directly related to misalignment. Well aligned machines reduce operating costs by increasing mean time between repairs, avoiding catastrophic shutdowns and reducing power consumption. Ludeca's Shaftalign laser shaft alignment system aligns directly coupled machinery such as motors driving pumps, refrigeration compressors, fans, gearboxes and conveyors while the SHEAVEMASTER is designed for belt- and sprocket-driven equipment.
Intelligrated will feature the latest in Alvey robotic case packing, unpacking and palletizing capabilities at its booth. Two robotic arms will operate on a single PLC-based control system performing robotic case unpacking and case packing of bottles. It will also showcase a third robotic arm operating on proprietary robotic controls demonstrating case palletizing. The exhibit will be of particular interest to companies looking to integrate robotics into existing fill lines, including wineries, distilleries and craft breweries.
Operating on industry-standard controls, these robotics systems seamlessly integrate with other line equipment. By maintaining a familiar control platform, existing personnel can support these applications without being robotics experts.
Laminations' PerfBoard, a VBoard edge-protection product, has pre-perforated legs that can be quickly and easily sectioned for any size or height requirement. Perforation allows the legs to be easily snapped off by hand or machine at intervals prior to being applied to pallet load corners. PerfBoard is also easily snapped off by clamp trucks when layers of stacked product are separated.
The perforated legs provide easy layer separation without compromising stacking strength or product protection. It is safe for partial shipments and irregularly sized loads, and can deliver improved labor efficiencies.
PerfBoard is available in calipers up to 0.160 inches, with standard leg-lengths up to 4-by-4 inches. Custom leg-lengths are also available. Standard product lengths extend to 300 inches, but longer product lengths are also available.
The Telesis EVC Laser System is a small footprint solution that marks materials "on-the-fly" at high speeds without burn thru on delicate foils and with contrast on various plastics. It also provides fast marking on chip boards, plastic bottles, and other materials without consumables or ecology issues.
The EVC features a Q-switched Nd: YVO4 end-pumped laser design with average diode life of greater than 25,000 working hours and low replacement cost for industrial environments where shock, vibration, and dust are a concern.
Key attributes include deep focal tolerance, high quality small beam diameter, air cooled-no chiller required, stable output power, and DOD compliance.
Spiroflow's Aero-Mechanical Conveyor offers the benefits of pneumatic conveying but without the need for air filtration equipment. It has a patented automatic rope tensioning, monitoring adjustment system that automatically measures and adjusts rope tension and indicates when the rope has to be replaced.
In addition to the equipment in the booth, Spiroflow staff will be on hand to discuss their full range of 11 different Bulk Bag Dischargers designed for a myriad of applications ranging from a simple support frame, to loss in weight/gain in weight, single trip, low head room, integral hoist, multi-discharger, total containment, dairy, pharmaceutical designs.
Standard-Knapp's 939S Versatron soft catch servo case packer enables packers to handle the thinner, lightweight, and more fragile glass containers being used in the move towards greener, more sustainable packaging. It minimizes the amount of material needed for container partitions, reducing packaging costs.
The new lowering head module, or "soft placement head," can pick up bottles and other containers and carry them to the packing area, where they can be packed in the case without dropping.
Versatron's use of light curtain safety protection provides added safety to the machine while improving the equipment's overall efficiency. It allows for a fast mean time to recover from a jam.
Bosch Rexroth will partner with OEMs like CAMA, CP Packaging and Brenton Engineering to demonstrate new drive and control products and systems designed to lower equipment and operational costs, enhance safety and improve energy efficiency.
For example, a series of linear motion products specifically designed to withstand the challenges of harsh food packaging environments will be on hand. Pneumatic components (grippers, cylinders and valve terminal systems) enabling hygienic handling of food products and efficient packaging of all types of products will also be displayed.
Rexroth's booth will also highlight its work to provide automation training to the industry through demonstration of its mechatronic training simulators, and an introduction to its online and cooperative training courses.


Because purple flowers like hydrangeas or lilacs are found in nature, their presence at a loved one's funeral or memorial service may also help provide an organic feel to the space, showing life is everlasting.
Purple flowers may also look best when surrounded by fresh greenery. Aside from offering peace and tranquility at the service, purple and green are also vibrant enough to showcase how great of a life your recently deceased family member had.
Many females are fond of purple and the color is both vibrant and regal, which may be a great way to represent your recently deceased family member. Purple is well known as a color of power and luxury, while also representing qualities like good judgment and being spiritually fulfilled. The hue has also been found to offer peace of mind and because of this, it is often used in meditation rooms or other soothing sanctuaries.
Purple and green flowers can be made into decorative wreaths or casket sprays in the shapes of hearts, crosses or just bouquets with a tasteful and modern feel. Purple flowers can also be shaped around a large picture frame of your passed loved one, which can help keep him or her in everyone's spirits, in a way your relative would want to be remembered.

This is a Pecan Pie recipe worthy of making for any and every occasion. It's a super simple, perfect, classic pecan pie. The filling is amazing. Be careful though- you'll want to dig in with a spoon and eat it all!
Let's just get one thing straight here. I'm completely and utterly, hopelessly, terribly pie-challenged. I can make a pie, sure… but it's not usually the beautiful sort of pie that you might see from seasoned bakers. Because of this, I have a bit of Pie Phobia. I sincerely *want* to make gorgeous pies to share with the world, but I rarely do since I apparently have pie problems.
This Pecan Pie recipe comes from Ree Drummond's new book: The Pioneer Woman Cooks: A Year of Holidays.
Here's how you make this crazy-delicious Pecan Pie! >> First things first, you make Ree's recipe for Perfect Pie Crust. It's really easy to make, and it really does deliver "perfect," as promised.
Then you just dump a heaping cup of chopped pecans into the crust.
…and they floated to the top! Now you cover the pie with some foil, bake for about 35 minutes, then pull off the foil and bake for about another 30 minutes.
Pecan Pie- Ta Da! Okay, I know it's not a perfect pie, but remember I said I was Pie-Challenged?!! No one cares that my pies aren't the most gorgeous thing on the block because they always end up tasting great. this one is grab-a-spoon-and-dive-in-and-JUST- TRY-to-take-a-single-bite delicious!
Oh thank you, Pioneer Woman, for an amazing recipe. It will be perfect for Thanksgiving and Christmas and other pie- worthy events. I was so excited to eat it that I couldn't even get a clear photo in the end. I may have eaten this for breakfast and lunch too. Darn pie. Darn calories. Darn horrible metabolism.
If you enjoy recipes from The Pioneer Woman, you might also enjoy her Butterscotch Pudding or Homemade Meatballs. The Perfect Cream Scones are my favorite, and this Dr. Pepper Cake is delicious too!
Easy, classic Pecan Pie recipe!
In a large bowl, combine the corn syrup, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, butter, salt and vanilla. Whisk until totally combined. Place the chopped pecans in the bottom of the pie crust. Pour the sticky mixture right over the top.
The pie should not be overly jiggly when you remove it from the oven. If it is, just continue baking it in 5-minute intervals until it's done. Let the pie cool before slicing it into wedges. Serve with sweetened whipped cream, if desired.
Disclosure: There are Amazon affiliate links included within this post. I was given a copy of The Pioneer Woman Cookbook for review and had permission to share a recipe from the book. All opinions shared are my own.
Pecan pie the best ever!
I love Rees recipes I never miss a show.
Iam always cooking with her recepi she is one of my favorite chefs.
I luv pecan pie. Its always so sweet but its so good.
My mom loves pecan pies 🙂 this looks wonderful, I can't wait to whip this up!
Wow! This is the first time I've seen this fluting technique for pie crust on a food blog. It is the method both my grandmother and mother used and, in turn, they taught me. I use it all the time…it's my signature way. Your pie looks scrumptious, Lori!
Your pie looks amazing! What are you talking about?
Looks like you did a great job with the pie!

Advocates, lawmakers push for better system to handle complaints by Hong Kong's foreign domestic workers
by IDWFED — published Jul 20, 2015 12:00 AM
Domestic worker advocacy groups and lawmakers urged the government to establish a platform to process enquiries and complaints from workers and employers, as they criticised the current system for failing to encourage abused workers to make complaints and for providing insufficient support to complainants.
HONG KONG -

Advocates, lawmakers push for better system to handle complaints by Hong Kong's foreign domestic workers | SCMP
During a Legislative Council panel meeting today, various groups focusing on equality and domestic worker rights voiced their concerns on the difficulties these foreign workers face, and the lack of support provided to them if they are abused.
Leo Tang Kin-wah, organising secretary of the Hong Kong Federation of Asian Domestic Workers Union, said he received a call recently from a social worker with a government-funded organisation, asking him how to deal with a case in which a Nepalese worker was raped by her employer.
"Although the government claims that it offers various services and support to overseas domestic workers, this shows that it is not the case," Tang said. "In order to let the government listen to views from both employers and workers, we believe the government must set up a three-party platform, including employers, workers and government representatives, to deal with all these overseas domestic worker-related policies."
Other groups also noted that many abused workers did not complain because they did not know whom they should contact, the police often brushed their cases aside as simple labour disputes due to miscommunication or they feared that they would be fired.
Workers unable to find new employers within two weeks are sent home. If they want to work in Hong Kong again after being sent home, they have to pay high fees for agencies and visas, which lead to heavy debts, the groups added.
They urged the police to set up guidelines for handling domestic worker cases with interpreters assigned to every case, to avoid miscommunications. And they called on the Immigration Department, the Social Welfare Department and the Labour Department to improve their support services so that workers who leave their abusive employers can have a shelter in the city, stay longer to look for new jobs and will not be susceptible to further exploitation by agencies.

Home Entertainment The Blacklist: Actress To Leave Series At The Conclusion of Season 8
The Blacklist: Actress To Leave Series At The Conclusion of Season 8
The Blacklist: According to information gathered by Deadline, actress Megan Boone, who played Elizabeth Keen, or simply Liz, in The Blacklist, will leave the cast after the conclusion of the 8th season. Her character starred in the series alongside James Spader since the first episode of production.
Also according to the website, the artist's departure from the series was informed long before the renewal for Season 9. That way, the writers had time to craft a consistent ending arc for Liz.
Megan Boone and the producers would have been able to reach a mutual agreement that would benefit both parties. However, representatives of NBC and Sony Pictures TV have not officially commented on the matter publicly so far.
It's worth noting that James Spader, Diego Klattenhoff and Harry Lennix now remain the only original cast members on The Blacklist.
Learn more about Megan Boone's departure from The Blacklist cast
Season 8 of the series transformed Liz's personality radically, from FBI agent to fleeing criminal. In fact, her name was recorded as number one on the blacklist. After some specific events, the character turned her mentor Red (Spader) into a target to be fought.
By all appearances, in the final two episodes aptly titled "Nachalo" and "Konets", Russian words meaning "Beginning" and "End", viewers are likely to witness something complementingly harrowing.
Jon Bokenkamp, creator of The Blacklist, in a previous interview, revealed that the penultimate episode of Season 8 would provide answers to some recurring questions. With that, many expect a direct confrontation between Red and Liz to take place.
Despite Megan Boone's embezzlement, the NBC series acted as a watershed for her career. Certainly, moments of her as Liz Keen will remain forever in viewers' memories.

Lemon Pound Cake (Ultimate Lemon Cake Recipe) – This is the Best Lemon Pound Cake on the Internet! Tart, sweet and filled with lemon flavor, you will adore this Cream Cheese Lemon Pound Cake Recipe with a secret ingredient for years to come!
Nothing beats the rich, buttery flavor of a homemade pound cake. My mouth waters at the thought of each bite melting in my mouth. I take pride in my own recipes; there's nothing that I love more than serving my cake to someone new and watching their face light up after the first bite. After years of hard work, dedication and countless minor oven burns I've earned the title of pound cake master. I was taught by none other than my Big Mama: a woman who could whip up the perfect pound cake in minutes from what seemed like thin air. She dedicated a rather large portion of her life to teaching me her tricks and sharing the traditions her mother passed on to her. We made pound cakes on holidays, Sunday dinners and rainy summer days. Each one was delicious but they were made sweeter by the fact that they were shared with the people we loved.
Today, the tradition lives on but in new ways. Don't get me wrong, you can absolutely never go wrong with a classic pound cake. It's moist, buttery and never overly sweet. Accompanied by vanilla ice cream, fresh whipped cream and berries, a pound cake can be enjoyed by everyone. But that doesn't mean that adding new flavors and remixing the classic can't be just as tasty. So when I started Grandbaby Cakes I decided to take the lessons my grandmother taught me and apply them to new recipes.
A pound cake's versatility is incredible; you can add almost anything and it's guaranteed to be great. Now, don't go all crazy. I'm not promising that your favorite bottle of wine or those dried mangoes in your pantry will work. On the other hand, there are other options like grapefruit, blueberries or coconut that will liven up your cake and surprise the people you serve it to. Never be afraid to be daring in the kitchen. Take a risk and watch it pay off. My Big Mama enjoyed the classic flavors of old recipes but she always encouraged my imagination. As I got older, she welcomed my newest creations and shared my excitement when what seemed like a crazy idea worked out wonderfully.
As I share this recipe I'm sharing the product of not only years of trial and error and plenty of family tradition but also the product of my Big Mama's undying faith in me.
I have an affinity for all things lemony. This Lemon Pound Cake is just one of them (try these lemon pancakes or this blueberry lemon pound cake) My family has made all sorts of lemon cake recipes and even lemon pound cake recipes over the years. Big Mama makes fantastic lemon cakes. My two aunts make great lemon cakes as well. Even my mother has a fave citrus lemon and lime cake (her 7 up cake and my big mama's sour cream pound cake recipe, which you can add lemon flavor to is a must try if you have it!). I have tried them all, and trust me when I say that it's hard to figure out which one I love the best. It must be because at the end of the day, lemon rules in my book. If you put it in a cake, I will eat it. And not just eat it, devour it.
What Makes this Lemon Pound Cake Recipe the Best?
This lemon pound cake recipe is probably one of the best I have developed. I think starting with a classic cream cheese pound cake recipe that I have been making for years put this recipe on the good foot. I have made this recipe so many times that I could possibly make it with my eyes closed. It is a tradition in my family to bring this cake whenever we have a get together. I thought the base of it would lend itself to a citrusy makeover.
What is the secret ingredient in this Lemon Cake Recipe?
So what were the changes I made you may be wondering? First I added in a secret yet fun ingredient which you won't find in many lemon cakes: Instant Lemon Pudding. That's right, lemon pudding. This ingredient adds two elements to this lemon cake recipe. One, it adds additional lemon flavor in a fun and exciting way. Each bite of this lemon pound cake recipe is bursting with lemon so you definitely won't miss it. Trust when I say it makes this cake no ordinary lemon bundt cake. And two, it adds additional moistness to the finished cake. Think about how moist a pudding is. Now imagine that going into your cake. Each bite will melt in your mouth.
Finally, I added in some additional lemon zest. This is not a play around lemon cake recipe. It adds as much lemon as you can take, just enough to make you pucker then dance uncontrollably.
And P.S. If you need a lighter lemon cake recipe, try mine HERE. or if you love an amazing citrus cake, try this Mandarin Orange Cake.
Lemon Pound Cake (Ultimate Lemon Cake Recipe) - This is the Best Lemon Pound Cake on the Internet! Tart, sweet and filled with lemon flavor, you will adore this Cream Cheese Lemon Pound Cake Recipe with a secret ingredient for years to come!
Add room temperature cream cheese, butter and salt to large mixing bowl and begin creaming on high speed until smooth.
Slowly add sugar and instant pudding to bowl and cream until light and fluffy which takes about 5-7 minutes.
Lower speed of mixer to medium and add one egg at a time and mix until incorporated.
Slow mixer to slowest speed and add flour one cup at a time into bowl until just incorporated.
Do not overbeat at this point.
Add lemon zest to bowl and mix.
Once everything is incorporated, pour cake batter into greased and floured or baking sprayed 12 inch bundt or tube pan.
Bake for 1 hour and 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes then remove cake and place on cooling rack for an hour or until it is completely cooled.
Whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. If it is too runny, add a bit more sugar or if it is too thick, add a little bit more lemon juice. You want to consistency to coat the back of a spoon but slide off easily.
Drizzle on top of cooled cake, sprinkle with lemon zest and serve.
Can't wait to try this out! Have you added poppyseeds before?
Hooray I actually haven't but let me know if you try and how much you add and if it works out.
Love your recipes . I want to know if I could substitute sourcream for the cream cheese in this recipe?
I was wondering if I could use this same recipe to make mini lemon bundt cakes as well? Thank you!
Yes you can. You will just need to change the bake time.
What brand pudding did you use because the only lemon pudding I see is 2.9 ozs not 3.4. Or do you just weigh it out?
Hi Jocelyn, my name is Marion Monson and I'm a recent graduate from Lecole Culinare. I was wondering if I could use sour cream and sprite instead of cream cheese even though I would love to use cream cheese too.
I would not make that replacement with this recipe. It will be a totally different recipe all together lol. Try this one as is and then tinker with it if you would like.
Do you add the pudding mix as a powder or after you make it into pudding?
Add as just the powder.
I've made this cake at least 50 times. (Yes, that's the true number) It is my favorite cake ever, and I have been making cakes for 60 years. I don't have to look at the recipe, cause it's in my head.
Thank you so much Alice for leaving a review to let others know how much you enjoy this cake. I appreciate it so much!
First of all I would love to say I absolutely adore your recipes. Intresting idea's and delicious!
I want to make this lemon cake but i'm having some trouble finding instant lemon pudding in my country.
They do have instant vanilla pudding.
Or do you have other idea's?
Hi Rozy, yes you can use the vanilla pudding in this recipe but it won't be as lemony but it will still taste amazing!
I'm going to try your recipe; I've been making a different version for years that a lovely lady gave me. Occasionally I fight against dense streaks that drive me crazy. Her recipe called for two sticks of margarine and one stick of butter. I think I've been alternating the ingredients wrong after reading your instructions and others. So I'll be back in touch!!
Yes let me know how it turns out for you.
I will be making this cake for my sister for Christmas, going outside to pick some fresh lemons off my lemon tree. I always make the cream cheese pound cake but never put in instant pudding. By adding the pudding does it still taste homemade?? Do I need to add vanilla flavoring???Looking forward in making it.I will freeze the cake so I can ship it to her. Looking forward in making it.
It tastes amazing! You don't need to add the vanilla. The entire cake is homemade so it still definitely taste homemade.
I made the cake and it was so good!
Yes some of my followers have tried loaf pans and had success.
This cake was the bomb.
I candied some lemons and used them as a garnish.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful lemony recipe.
Oh that is a wonderful idea!
Hi Janie, did you add lemon zest?
This cake came out beautifully.
Something must have gone wrong. Followed directions but cake came out too dense! Like, I-must-have-a-cup-of-milk dense.
I'm so sorry you had a problem with the recipe. It always gets glowing reviews so I'm not sure where you went wrong. Maybe with the flour?
I just tried this cake! It is so moist! Love your recipes Jocelyn Thank you!
Hooray that makes me so happy!!
I just want to say, Thank you Jocelyn, for this recipe. I made this cake on Wednesday to share with family for the up coming holiday weekend. My house had an amazing smell. It was so easy to put together. I didn't have any lemon pudding so I used what I had on hand, which was cheesecake pudding. I can't wait to taste it this weekend. Thank you again.
Oh lovely. Let me know how the cheesecake pudding worked for this recipe. Interested to know how the taste changed. I hope you enjoy it!!! Have a great weekend.
Is the 3.4 ounces a weight or a dry measure?
I am testing the recipe for our bake sale.
Hi there, its the amount stated on the package when you purchase it. Make sure to buy the size that says 3.4 ounces.
Thank you. Our market does not carry packages that are 3.4 or combined add up to 3,4. Will weigh the mix next time.
This cake is absolutely divine! Everyone went wild for it, and one member of the family has already asked that it be her birthday cake.
Quick question: Can you suggest a sifter that's easy to use? Mine took ages and ages and ages, and so much effort. I bruised my hands on it! I've tried two different kinds, but both were arduous and painful to use.
This is the best lemon pound cake ever! Very much in demand. My question, have you thought about covering in simple syrup?
Hi Debra, I'm so glad you enjoy this cake!! I haven't covered it in simple syrup since I find the texture and moistness to be my taste but I'm sure it will be really incredible with this addition. Let me know how it turns out for you.
This cake is absolutely delicious! I can't thank you enough for this recipe. It's light, fluffy, and most importantly soooo lemony.
This is an amazing Lemon Pound Cake, soooooooooo good, getting ready to make my second one 🙂 BTW I have your cookbook also, are you coming out with another one anytime soon?
AMAZING!!! My family loves this recipe. This is my go to dessert recipe from now on.
Hooray thank you so much! I'm so glad you love it.
I made this for my beautiful girlfriend for Valentine's Day and we enjoyed it.
Wonderful! I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Can I use normal lemon pudding mix? It's diffi to find instant lemon pudding mix in Australia!
Just put the lemon pound cake in the oven. Definitely the best lemon pound cake I've ever tasted (I've baked it once before). My batter was so thick. Is it suppose to be like this?
The batter is pretty thick overall so it isn't thin at all.
Hooray! I am so so glad you enjoy this recipe so much.
Hi when using the mixer is better to the whisk attachment or the flat paddle attachment?
I personally like to use the whisk attachment since more air gets in the batter but either one is fine.
Can you use lemon zest that you get in the spice section at the market instead of cutting my fingers trying to zest a lemon or an orange? I would like to make your Lemon Cake. I look forward to your response.
No that wouldn't be the exactly same as the fresh zest. Dried zest is more potent so you wouldn't put the same amount in. However you could add in some lemon zest to compensate.
Company coming and I'm looking for some good dessert recipes that I can make in advance and freeze. Have you tried making this and freezing it? My thought was to glaze it after thawing it overnight.
Love all things lemon and can't wait to try this!
Hi Lynne, I actually have never froze this dessert unfortunately so I can't tell you for sure.

Home/Electronic Signature Law/How does the law recognise or define e-signatures?
The ECT Act defines an electronic signature as data attached to, incorporated in, or logically associated with other data and which is intended by the user to serve as a signature. The ECT Act recognises the contractual freedom of parties to specify whether electronic signatures are required, and if so, the types of electronic signatures. The Act does not prescribe what type of technology must be used and remains technology neutral.
The Act also creates special type of electronic signature, known as an "advanced electronic signature". Where a law (statute) requires a signature, only an "advanced" electronic signature will be recognised. These signatures can only be provided by vendors whose electronic signature product has been accredited by the DOC. They involve face-to-face authentication. Some of these signatures rely on public key cryptography and to this extent, may be considered "digital signatures".

Q: Is is possible to make indentation within enumerate item? This is some of my code :
\begin{enumerate}
\item {\bfseries For} all $v \in V(D)$ whose weight isn't 0 with $u$ {\bfseries do}\\
\indent {\bfseries If} $l(v) < l(u) + w((u, v))$ \textbf{then}\\
\hspace{2pt} set $l(v) := l(u) + w((u, v))$\\
\indent \indent set $p(v) := u.$
\end{enumerate}

what I really want is something like this :
 For all v element V(D) whose weight isn't 0 with u do
   If l(v) < l(u) + w(u,v)
      set l(v) := l(u) + w(u,v)
         set p(v) := u

but with that code I get :
 For all v element V(D) whose weight isn't 0 with u do
   If l(v) < l(u) + w(u,v)
   set l(v) := l(u) + w(u,v)
   set p(v) := u

any help appreciated. thanks.

A: This is one possible solution-- use of \makebox[length]{} to serve as a workaround of indentation.

Code
 \documentclass{article}

 \usepackage{enumitem,amsmath,amssymb}

\begin{enumerate}
\item{\bfseries For} all $v \in V(D)$ whose weight isn't 0 with $u$ {\bfseries do}\\
\makebox[0.7cm]{} {\bfseries If} $l(v) < l(u) + w((u, v))$ \textbf{then}\\
\makebox[1.4cm]{} set $l(v) := l(u) + w((u, v))$\\
\makebox[2.1cm]{} set $p(v) := u.$

A wall display at Bridge Pa School, in Hawke's Bay, where all the pupils identify as Maori. The school motto is "E anga whakamua ai – Me titiro whakamuri" ("Connect to the past – prepare for the future").
He came in the winter, leaning cautiously on a carved wooden stick, his feet in worn leather slippers lined with wool. For 10 weeks, Ānaru Te Tai spent his Thursday nights in one of our boardrooms at Bauer Media, teaching us the basics of te reo Māori.
In our small group were writers, designers, editors and digital content providers, each bringing a particular weave of cultural heritage to the table, with family roots as far afield as Vanuatu, Malaysia and France. Unlike evening classes I've done in the past, with their brisk flurry of printed worksheets, this Kura Pō (night school) was a gentler place. As we mangled our kupu and muffed our karakia, Te Tai's patience and quiet humour never faltered.
Matua Ānaru, we called him, using a term of respect that sits somewhere between "uncle" and "teacher". He spoke of "wh" as a consonant that "stands on its own mana", and how there are two different words for "my", depending on whether it's an everyday item, like a pen, or something that sustains life, such as food or shelter. And we learned why some words wear a "hat": a "tohu pōtae" or macron.
That flat line over a vowel makes the sound long, in the same way adding an "e" changes hat to hate, altering not only the pronunciation but also the meaning. For example, keke (cake) can be also written as kekē (to creak), kēke (a wrestling hold), or kēkē (armpit) – so "having your kēkē and eating it" takes on a whole new spin.
It's 30 years since te reo Māori was made an official language of New Zealand, which means we're a little late to the party, but from this issue on, macrons will be in place throughout the magazine and its online stories. That's not as easy as it sounds: three of the five fonts (or typefaces) used in North & South don't include vowels with macrons, so they have to be designed by hand each time, as individual art works. Ascertaining which words need macrons, and where, can be a fraught business, too. Bear with us, because we won't always get it right.
And will we, I wonder, need to brace ourselves for the flurry of outrage and vitriol that's been directed at Guyon Espiner and the team at Radio New Zealand for introducing a phrase or two of Māori into Morning Report? Or, as Otago Daily Times columnist Dave Witherow put it, those "obsequious" media apologists, "prostrating themselves before the holy altar of te reo".
That defensiveness – the irrational conviction that something is being taken away, rather than added – is a curious response. As someone who works with words, I love the nuances of language and the insights it gives into a world view other than my own.
Central Otago illustrator Kirsten Parkinson, who's co-produced a popular series of bilingual baby books, mixes English and Māori at home with her three children, and picked up a smattering of Nihongo when she spent a few years in Japan. A secondary-school teacher, she sees the Māori language as a taonga for everyone, and was disappointed (but, sadly, not surprised) when a student told her recently she'd been advised by her parents not to learn Te Reo because it wouldn't help her in the "real world".

El calamón de la Lord Howe o gallineta blanca (Porphyrio albus) es una especie extinta de ave gruiforme perteneciente a la familia Rallidae. Sólo habitaba la Isla de Lord Howe.

Era muy similar al calamón común, aunque con las patas y dedos más cortos y robustos. Su plumaje era blanco, a veces con algunas plumas azules, y probablemente no volaba, como otros parientes cercanos del calamón takahe.

Esta ave fue descrita por John White en su obra Journal of a Voyage to New South Wales (1790), que además contenía una ilustración. No era abundante en la época en la que fue descrita y en poco tiempo balleneros y otros marinos los cazaron hasta la extinción.

Quedan solo dos pieles de esta ave, una el la colección del World Museum en Liverpool y la otra en el Naturhistorisches Museum Wien de Vienna. Además hay varias pinturas y varios huesos fósiles.

Photographers share their love of Texas' natural wonders.
How many times do you hike a trail or drive the back roads of Texas and come upon a sight that you long to capture and keep, only to realize you've left your camera elsewhere? It can be the instant just before a wild animal senses your presence and flees or when the lighting is unique, reflecting off the water or painting the mountains. Perhaps you actually get to snap a shot, only to be disappointed when the results contain none of the magic that inspired you. Every month, we share the work of the state's greatest nature photographers, who spend hours upon days upon months upon years capturing for posterity those moments that we mere mortals miss. This fourth annual installation of our Best of Texas series features these fine artists. We asked them to share the stories behind some of their favorite images of the Lone Star State.


Redheads have the most fun in this Devilishly Long Red Wig. This Big Red 100% Synthetic Fiber costume wig will give them something to chew on. The lashes match the drapes with Red Metallic Eyelashes, sold separately.
Good thing about this wig, you can use it for many different costumes (poison ivy, queen of hearts, little mermaid, jessica rabbit, ect) The ends of the hair did not look so nice or well put together, after i struggled to get it on straight & i had to tighten it up & secure with bobby pins, it looked out of preportion to my face & body, too much hair, made it look very fake. Because I am petite, small head & all, the mermaid child wig would probably been a better choice for me. Also it did NOT come with a wig cap, which could have helped the look of the wig, I am not too experienced with wigs.. this could work for you but be extremely careful to not frazzle the ends!!


Baer - Ursa 4 years ago by Lindsay H.
COLBY RED. A California Blend. After getting bored with misc $10-$14 doll or bottles of single grape wines, I have been trying Red blends. Up to the time of this bottle purchase($12), I began to believe that my search for palatable wines (in my budget range) was exhausted. Then the other day I was in Walgreens to get some things, when on the way out I passed these wines on a end cap (unusual). So I splurged $12, and now here I write about it, because this wine, has me ecstatic. What is to be said is what the label describes. Never has this happened , except when purchasing wines in the $80 and up range. The body is full and stays full for hours. The five grapes linger to enjoyment. I can write for a long time, but I will some this comment up in short, and say that there a 14 less bottles at that Walgreens today, because the are in my feller, being assured that there is a great amount of gorgeous Tannins to keep this wine for another 4-5 years. Another reason for the large purchase is that a portion of the profits a donated to the studies of heart health. 6 years ago by Ed M.

What Do Other Asian Countries Need To Learn From Taiwan During the Pride Month?

A happy Pride Month to you! It is a wonderful feeling to see other articles and organizations marking the occasion by coloring their logos with the rainbow spectrum. Such a sweet gesture! Most of you probably know that in 2019, Taiwan became Asia's first country to accept same-sex marriages and celebrate Pride. The parade, however, may be postponed to next year by local authorities because of the rise in cases in Taiwan and other countries. Now, let's talk about what led Taiwan to give freedom to the LGBTQ+ community and become the first Asian country to do so.
The long way for the bill to proceed
The road to coming up with the new law legalizing same-sex marriage took years of fighting, speaking out, and recognizing. In 2003, the Taiwanese parliament began introducing the bills, but they met with strong opposition. Ten years later, LGBT supporters sued for equal marriage rights, counseled by Evan Wolfson, an LGBT rights supporter, and attorney. (Han & O'Mahoney, 2019)
In 2017, Taiwan's Constitutional Court ruled that same-sex couples had the right to lead to legally marry. Also, the Constitutional Court redresses the public backlash that led to the ban on same-sex marriage, a violation of equal rights and freedoms under the Constitution. A majority of voters rejected the idea of allowing a referendum on same-sex marriage in some areas. Basically, they insisted that marriage could not be distinct from it since only a man and a woman can marry.
This eventually led to a turn of events. Taiwan has enacted a special law to allow the LGBTQ+ community to register their unions as marriages. Also, the government still keeps the existing definition of marriage in civil law. (BBC, 2019)
What does Taiwan's decision mean to the rest of Asia?
Other Asian countries are likely to look to Taiwan's acceptance of LGBTQ+ freedom as an inspiration for their own governments to do the same. Hong Kong, an autonomous island, calls on its government to follow Taiwan's example. In September 2018, the Hong Kong government started to grant visas for same-sex spouses after the pass of Hong Kong's Court of Final Appeal legalizing same-sex partnerships. (Han & O'Mahoney, 2019)
The annual Taiwan Pride parade gathers all individuals from around the world to join and celebrate the publicity of the LGBTQ+ community and their basic rights become normalized like other people. The Singaporean Paul Ng, who participated in the Taiwan Pride parade, expressed that even though he is not Taiwanese, the feeling of freedom for homosexuals burns within him. "For Singaporeans, this is especially important because our government likes to go on and on about preserving 'Asian' values… so this sends a very important message to other developed nations in Asia."
The Indian government decriminalized homosexuality in 2018, despite a century-old law prohibiting it. Hindus, India's largest religious group, have also discussed the possibility of same-sex marriage. India has a variety of laws governing marriage, which differ according to many religions. There have been transgender weddings at religious ceremonies as well.
Thailand's government had decriminalized homosexuality in 1956 and approved a bill in July 2020. This giving chances for same-sex unions to access benefits the same as heterosexual marriages in this Buddhist country well known for its sexual freedom.
Following Nepal, China, Japan, Vietnam, South Korea, and Bhutan have gradually accepted LGBTQ+ people, but have yet to take a further step towards their legal recognition. (Joseph, 2020)
The journey to global legal recognition is still halfway
Many parts of the world now recognize the LGBTQ+ community as brave, special, and determined. Yet other parts of the country refused to accept them. A number of Asian countries follow the same laws laid down in section number 377, a part of a penal code from the colonial era.
Brunei, a former British colony until 1984, released stricter laws towards same-sex unions can be punished to death. George Clooney and Elton John on a trip to Brunei had called for a boycott to a hotel for not accepting same-sex rights. (Han & O'Mahoney, 2019)
The advocacy from Pope Francis
The Catholic Church always keeps the disapproval of same-sex unions and their legalization, and defined as "against the rule of nature", as "God creates us as men and women".
However, Pope Francis had shown his support to same-sex relationships in a documentary, whereas going against the Vatican's value to stand against any recognition of homosexual unions. Pope Francis expressed his thoughts in an interview of the film, "Homosexual people have the right to be in a family. They are children of God.", "What we have to do is a civil union law; that way, they are legally covered.
The Vatican stated that Pope Francis had not deviated from the Church's official stance but still insisted on the idea that families should not abandon people having different sexual orientations.
When being asked on World Youth Day in July 2013, whether a same-sex union is sinful, Pope Francis insisted on his belief, "Who am I to judge gay people?". (Joseph, 2020)
Although there is still a long way to go before the LGBTQ+ community is recognized and harmonized into basic rights as heterosexuals, Pope Francis' support has become a moral ringing bell that enlivens LGBTQ+ everywhere.

How to replicate smart city solutions? Are standards the right tools for cities?
Can the European Standardization Organizations be part of the cities' journey towards a smart and sustainable future?
More than 80 persons participated in the conference and over 100 persons were following the webinar of the conference. These were representatives of local communities, city authorities, city professionals, representatives of smart cities projects, associations of cities, policy makers and regulators, regions, investors and governments, standardizers, societal stakeholders, and other interested parties.
Cities are not always fully aware of what standards can offer, as they may not be familiar with the value voluntary standards bring and how to get involved in the standardization system. This conference brought cities and standardizers together to debate on priorities and needs for cities in their journey to become smarter and more sustainable.
The results of the debates are fed into the CEN-CENELEC-ETSI Sector Forum on 'Smart and Sustainable Cities and Communities' acting as advisory and coordinating body for European standardization activities in this field.
In the realm of the 2017 World Standards Day theme 'Standards make cities smarter', the European Standardization Organizations organized an intensive one-day event with keynotes, case studies and panel discussions. The purpose was to explore the needs of and provide solutions for smart cities in their roll out of suitable infrastructures, services, systems, devices, equipment and much more.
Participants networked and were inspired by solutions that address the challenges of making cities smart and more sustainable, learned from existing projects about how standards already contribute to this goal in Europe, and discovered how standards can help in scaling up and replicating smart and sustainable cities' solutions.

Meet the Porgs, the Adorable New 'Last Jedi' Creatures You're Going to Be Obsessed With (If You Aren't Already)
Emma Stefansky
Lucasfilm / YouTube
One of the best things about Star Wars — given that it's set in a galaxy far, far away full of fabulous planets and fantastic species — is how many weird alien creatures sneak their way into these movies. The original trilogy gave us wampas, banthas, Ewoks, and tauntauns, on Geonosis we saw Anakin, Padme, and Obi-Wan fight the reek, the nexu, and (my favorite), the acklay, and The Force Awakens gave us a very thirsty happabore. Earlier this week, Lucasfilm gave us a closer behind-the-scenes look at The Last Jedi and while a lot of the stuff in there was cool, the best part was the porgs.
There's always gotta be one Star Wars beast to bring the cute factor. With the originals it was the Ewoks, in the prequels it was Watto (just kidding), and in the new trilogy, it looks like it's going to be the porgs. That BTS video showed us just a couple of quick shots of these little animatronic bird-guinea-pig-penguin dudes, and immediately everyone on the Internet fell in love. StarWars.com debuted some concept art of our new best friends today, along with a short chat with Lucasfilm Story Group's Pablo Hidalgo.
Look at their TEETH. Their LITTLE FEET. Their HUGE EYES.
Hidalgo described the porgs as puffin-like, and revealed that their homeworld is Luke Skywalker's current hideout.
Porgs are native to Ahch-To, and can be found dwelling along the cliffs of the island where Luke and Rey are. In many ways, they're the Star Wars version of puffins. They build nests. They can fly. Their babies are called porglets.
PORGLETS!!! I'm fine. Really, I'm doing great.
Hidalgo also explained that some of the porgs — probably the ones featured in close-ups, are animatronic, while others are realized with CGI. They're also very curious, given that no one usually visits their island.
Ever since that roadside scavenger let out that belch outside Jabba's palace in Return of the Jedi, the idea that there's an entire animal kingdom living amid the drama and adventure of the Star Wars saga is a compelling one. Besides, porgs are cute. You fall into those deep, soulful eyes. I think a lot of people are going to want a porg as a pet.
Well, he's right about that. Since they are, tragically, not real, I'll settle for a small plushie of one though. We'll probably be seeing tons of them in Target come December.
The Last Jedi hits theaters December 15.

How The Women's World Cup Works: A Guide For Everyone
In many ways, the Women's World Cup is a lot like its male counterpart. In many ways, it isn't. So with the tournament set to arrive this summer in France, we thought we'd explain how the Women's World Cup works in 2019.
The men's World Cup has been around since 1930, but the women's World Cup didn't start until 1991. The men's World Cup has 32 teams, the women's just 24. The U.S. sucks at the men's World Cup; the U.S. dominates at the Women's World Cup.

Q: How to access the second mic android such as Galaxy 3 A lot of smart phone now have more than one microphone. One for voice input and another for reducing the enviroment noise.
I am wondering how could I access the two microphone's signal independently? Or turn off one of the microphone?
Any thoughts or comments are welcomed. Thanks a lot.

A: I'm not familiar with the Galaxy S3 specifically, but the following is true for the majority of devices I've worked with:

*

*There's no reliable way of selecting whether to use the primary or secondary mic for a mono recording. The MIC AudioSource usually means the primary mic when doing a mono recording, and the CAMCORDER source might mean the secondary mic. But there's no guarantee for this, because it depends e.g. on the physical placement of the mics.

*Recording in mono effectively turns the other mic off, and whatever noise reduction is done uses only the signal from one mic (so there's little to no reduction of dynamic noise).
One exception to this might be if you record during a voice call where both mics already have been enabled in order to do uplink noise suppression.Another exception might be if you use the VOICE_RECOGNITION AudioSource, because some vendors apply noise suppression on the signal using one or more extra mics in this use-case.

*Recording in stereo records from both mics on a 2-mic device. The left channel contains the input from one mic and the right channel contains the input from the other mic, but there's no guarantee as to which physical mic the channels correspond to (again, depends on the placement).

PM Hasina
PID On Thursday, the Prime Minister inaugurated the program of sending mobile allowances to the beneficiaries of four types of allowances
I want to work as a servant of the people: Prime Minister Hasina
#Bangladesh, #SheikhHasina, #PMHasina
Dhaka, January 14: Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said the father of the nation worked in the service of the people all his life. "The first day I was sworn in as Prime Minister, I said I would work as a servant of the people of the country. The oath to me as Prime Minister is that I have the opportunity to work. My team and I want to continue working as servants of the people."
On Thursday (January 14), the Prime Minister inaugurated the distribution of four types of allowances to the beneficiaries of the Social Security Enclosure Program.
The Prime Minister said this while inaugurating the program through video conference from Ganobhaban. The Prime Minister also spoke to the beneficiaries of the four districts.
Sheikh Hasina said, "My father has sacrificed his life to put a smile on the face of a sad person. It is very difficult to put a smile on the face of a sad person. But that is what he wanted to do. He did not see the happiness of his life. He did not look at the future of his life. The whole of Bangladesh has gone through ups and downs. There have been repeated injuries."
Bangabandhu's daughter said, "He saw death from the front but did not deviate from his goal. The rope of execution could not shake him. We learned that lesson from my father to love the country. He has done a lot of hard work. Because his goal was right, he was on the path of honesty. He wanted to change the social system of Bangladesh. He wanted to work for the welfare of the people at the village level."
The Prime Minister said, "If a girl is a widow, where is her place? I have asked the little ones why you walk on the streets, why they are street children. I have talked to them. I have talked to them while they are in the opposition. She may have to leave home due to family conflicts or become a widow or her husband has left her and has no other place to go. No father's house or father-in-law's house. Then she comes in search of work and eventually takes up prostitution. That is how the children became street children."
