So far we have learnt about Stock Trading Basics where you have understand how stock market works. And what is the difference in Investment and Trading. Then we read about the Movement of Stock Market in order to foresee our Stock Movement with the help Candlesticks. And after that we have learnt about Candlestick Patterns which helps us generating a Tradingview on our stock portfolio.
In all those blogs we have understood how to read Candlestick Patterns. However, we still don't know when to enter and exit from our selected stock. Till the time, you don't know your entry and exit from the stock, you will not be a satisfied trader. Also, at the same time you will be less profitable in your journey in stock market.
What is Support & Resistance ?
A price point where stock finds a level of support formed and it is supposed not to fall further from this price point. From a general point of view, we can understand, sellers are exhausted and they don't have much to sell now. As a result, Buyers can make their entry on the stock and trend can be revised. A support is always a price below the current price level.
A price point where stock find difficulty to raise further. As a general perspective, we can understand that Buyers are not anymore interested on this stock to buy at current levels. Those who are holding the stock are now converting into sellers and want to book profit from the stock. Hence it is clear that movement of the stock will be Bearish. A Resistance is always above the current price level.
Why Support and Resistance are required ?
Suppose you have entered into a share at Rs 100 with quantity 500 and it gained 5% gain after you bought it. So your profit is Rs 2500 which is a good profit in few days and considering the same, you sell your stake at Rs 105. However, it was still raising and reached Rs 110 after you sold at Rs 105. So you have missed another Rs 2500 profit. This will make you regret that why you sold your stock at Rs 105.
On the contrary side, if you have kept your stock in your holding at Rs 105 assuming it will raise upto Rs 110. However, after reaching at Rs 106, it took a U-Turn and fell below Rs 95. This will create a panic and you would have to sell your stake in loss of Rs 2500. And both the scenario happens just because you don't know your entry and exit points. Support and Resistance helps us to understand our entry and exit point on any stock.
I am not saying that you will find the exact Top and Bottom of the Stock. Because, no-one on the globe is able to do the same however, you will be able to get a price point near Top and Bottom. Which will indicate your entry and exit point from a stock. This will help you to make you be a consistently profitable and sensible trader.
How to find Support & Resistance ?
This is a graph of L&T as on 14 Apr'19 and squeezed for 1 year data with 1 day per candlestick. Now from the Assumption of the Stock Market we know, history tends to repeat itself which can be seen in above image or any stock chart that you select, you will find the same repetition somewhere in the past.
I have marked support with 'Red' circles and Resistance with 'Green' Circles. It is clear from the chart that this stock was not able to break price point of Rs 1450 by 2 times which is all time high price for this stock. And similarly it was not able to break price point of Rs 1420 by 3 times in the past. Hence, there is 2 resistance price for this stock Rs 1420 and Rs 1450.
On the contrary, Support is a price point where sellers are exhausted and trend can be revised now. According to history of L&T Stocks, there is a support price point formed at Rs 1275 and another support is formed at Rs 1220.
How strong Resistance or Support is ?
Yes, you heard me right! There is a strong and weak kinds of Resistance and Support. In the image above, Points 6,7,8 are showing one Support Level with 3 times repetition in the history at Rs 1450. However, Points 9,10,11,12 are showing another Support Level by 4 times repetition in the history. So it can be understood, Higher the Points, Strongest your Resistance or Support Level. There are lesser chance to break Strong Resistance or Support by the Stock.
So a trader can see an opportunity to ride on stock near support level and exit near resistance level. It is not certain or written anywhere that the stock will reverse from Resistance or Support however, as per Technical Analysis, it depends on the mind share of traders and only an assumption based on probability. So never try to time the market.
To be a successful and consistently profitable trader on D-Street, you need to decide your entry and exit with right kind of stock before any action. And then you need to follow your decision with proper discipline. Don't be greedy ever, else you may face severe losses. Because if you don't sell your stocks at the right time, it might get reverse and fall below your purchase point.
Support is a price point below current price level that indicate buying interest & Resistance is a price point above current price level and represents selling interest. Load your trading window with 10-12 months of data points and place horizontal line with 2-3 points at the same price level with a good price action in order to find a Resistance or Support for the Stock. Support or Resistance can be used to find your entry or exit on the stock however it is not certain. Price may fall below Support level or rise further above Resistance level. So a trader should weigh the opportunities and act accordingly.
Very well precisely explained, it's foremost to know "Support and Resistance" before investing.
Thanks for taking out time and letting me know that this is helping you somewhere on D-Street in order to earn some profit.
Though I am yet to add few more pages on Technical Analysis which will surely help you to be a consistently profitable trader with Stock Exchange.

If you watch a lot of movies and TV shows, there's a good chance something you like has been tampered with by government agencies. That may not sound like a surprise anymore given all that we have learnt about government control in the past few years but it should not be given a pass.
A new report by Tom Secker and Matthew Alford details how government agencies have been vetting, vetoing and drastically altering scripts and storylines of major Hollywood blockbusters in order to promote their agendas. With documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, Secker and Alford claim that over 1,800 movies and TV shows have been influenced in some way by government agencies; an astonishing number that exceeds any previous estimates of a largely secretive process.
This raises new questions about freedom of expression in entertainment and to what extent secretive deals by filmmakers to accommodate government propaganda deliberately misleads the audience into thinking these projects are the visions of creative people on and behind the camera. If you hate studio interference, you should despise government interference.
When a writer or producer approaches the Pentagon and asks for access to military assets to help make their film, they have to submit their script to the entertainment liaison offices for vetting. Ultimately, the man with the final say is Phil Strub, the Department of Defense's (DOD) chief Hollywood liaison.
If there are characters, action or dialogue that the DOD don't approve of then the film-maker has to make changes to accommodate the military's demands. If they refuse then the Pentagon packs up its toys and goes home. To obtain full cooperation the producers have to sign contracts — Production Assistance Agreements — which lock them into using a military-approved version of the script.
This can lead to arguments when actors and directors ad lib or improvise outside of this approved screenplay.
It's probably not a major surprise Transformers was one of the most willing participants in this secretive project given their thirst for large scale combat scenes that would require military equipment and CGI vomit accompanied by army personnel.
However, this line did not end up in the finished film, whether that was simply a creative choice or Favreau being unsatisfied with having to accommodate the DOD is a question that only Favreau could answer.
'Ranch Hand' is the name of a real military operation that saw the US Air Force dump millions of gallons of pesticides and other poisons onto the Vietnamese countryside, rendering millions of acres of farmland poisoned and infertile.
Pictured: Hulk breaking out of the 'non-military' facility.
Further dialogue was also removed referring to "all those boys, guinea pigs, dying from radiation, and germ warfare', an apparent reference to covert military experiments on human subjects.' The military is not credited for these changes highlighting that it was in fact supposed to be kept secretive. The information was obtained through a 'dossier from the US Marine Corps'.
Other notable movies thought to have been affected include Top Gun, D.C Cinematic Universe, James Bond, Meet the Parents and Salt.
It's worth noting that studios always pay for the privilege of using military equipment provided by the government which is why the need to exercise creative restrictions on the material seems to be a little troubling.
Tom Secker and Matthew Alford have written a new book together on this breaking story titled: National Security Cinema: The Shocking New Evidence of Government Control in Hollywood.

When Pivoting Becomes a Pitfall
Whatever your problem was, a pivot done badly has big potential for making it worse.

To survive, we entrepreneurs have to be flexible. We have to respond to customer feedback, competitor movement, changing market conditions, new opportunities and so much more.
That's why a lot of people talk about the need for the "pivot." This now-familiar term is centered on entrepreneurs recognizing the factors above and adjusting their business strategy to meet a shifting business landscape. When used correctly, pivoting keeps a business on course to navigate changing waters.
However, there can be drawbacks to pivoting and it has the potential to capsize a business if not done properly. Often it's best to stay the original course and weather the storm. The tendency to overreact is where entrepreneurs can get into trouble.
Related: 5 Reasons Why Pivots Are Crucial to Today's Businesses
Pivoting too hard, too fast.
Larger companies run the risk of becoming settled in their ways and not adjusting. Entrepreneurs, however, are all too happy to pivot and follow a shiny object.
Abrupt moves are only wise in an emergency. There are times when you have to pivot hard, but that's only when you're in a dire situation. I learned this lesson the hard way. At Infusionsoft we considered a change to our pricing model. We conducted some testing on what the effects would be, but in hindsight it was not nearly enough for such a major decision. Our eyes were wide open with excitement at the opportunity of what could happen if we made a shift. We were chasing the shiny object.
We pivoted hard and fast to move in this new direction and we nearly lost the company.
Related: 4 Tips for Successfully Pivoting Your Startup
Gradual change wins the day.
There are those occasions when an abrupt move is necessary. Usually though, gradual and incremental changes are the principle you want to follow.
So how do you gradually improve? You test. Business consultant Jim Collins describes this principle as "Bullets, then cannonballs." The idea is that you have to fire a lot of bullets -- test new products, services, processes, etc. -- to see what works and what doesn't. Only after an idea has been tested enough to be proven do you then fire a cannonball. Collins refers to hard pivots as firing uncalibrated cannonballs.
With this method, what looks like a 90-degree turn is actually 90 incremental one-degree turns. It is a series of small pivots that gradually gets you and your company headed in the right direction.
Moving your business in a different direction always involves risk. Too often though, entrepreneurs think that risk is this zero-sum, all-or-nothing game that we're playing to win. Successful entrepreneurs know the value of methodical and tested risks. They're playing a very calculated game of risk and they're stacking the deck in their favor to win.
Related: 3 Rules for Making a Successful Pivot
So yes, they're taking risk. They're moving. They're pivoting. But, they're usually not taking hard 90-degree turns.
If you're considering making a drastic change to your business, ask yourself first whether you're in an emergency situation. If not, use the time to fire some bullets before the cannonballs.

Roof collapses in Racine school fire
Posted: Feb 27, 2014 6:48 AM CST | Updated: Nov 5, 2014 1:38 PM CST
RACINE -- Students at Mitchell Elementary and Mitchell Middle School will not have class until at least Monday because of a fire at the building.
Officials say the fire broke out around 1:30 a.m. Thursday in the kitchen area of the elementary school.
The middle and elementary schools are connected, and the Chief of Schools says classes have been canceled for all students at the school.
The call through an alarm company as a burglar alarm, officials said, and when police investigated, they found smoke.
Fire crews were called in and started to attack the fire from the inside, but were forced to evacuate when the roof collapsed.
Racine Fire Chief Steve Hansen said most of the damage is in the gymnasium, which is considered a total loss.
The roof collapsed into the gym and there is concern that the walls may cave in. Hansen said the school may be closed through the rest of the week.
No one was inside at the time.
Firefighters are also struggling in battling the blaze because of frozen equipment and limited water supply.
One firefighter slipped on ice and was taken to the hospital to be treated. He was released and should be okay.

Клод Жан П'єр Дажан (; нар. 20 травня 1940, Кодран) — французький католицький єпископ, член Французької академії (з 2008).

Біографія
Народився у 1940 році в Кодрані (передмістя Бордо). Закінчив Вищу нормальну школу. У 1987 році висвячений на єпископа і став допоміжним єпископом архієпархії Пуатьє, в 1993 році отримав Ангулемську єпископську кафедру. Не змирившись із законодавством про легалізацію одностатевих шлюбів у Франції, брав участь в акціях руху . У 2008 році обраний до Французької академії, посівши крісло № 1, а 9 листопада 2015 року наступником Дажана на Ангулемській кафедрі став єпископ  (Дажан отримав титул почесного єпископа).

У 1996 році був опублікований «Лист католикам Франції» (Lettre aux catholiques de France), який мав основну мету «запропонувати віру» Франції, не нав'язуючи її вже значною мірою секуляризованому суспільству. Робота була відзначена премією Французької академії, що згодом сприяло обранню Дажана як основного автора цієї праці у Французьку академію, в якій за традицією має бути один єпископ.

Anime Adaption Romeo and Juliet!
Volume 4, Chapter 3 is a chapter of the fourth Volume of the K-ON! Manga by Kakifly.
Sakuragaoka High School's Class 3-2 is still rehearsing for their class act "Romeo and Juliet". Tsumugi Kotobuki lauds Mio and Ritsu, who are performing as Romeo and Juliet, for their fitting outfits.
Yui, who performs as a tree, makes fun of Ritsu's costume despite looking silly herself, as Ritsu angrily notes. Ritsu then drags the reluctant Mio to the stage, leading Nodoka to think that the personalities of Juliet and Romeo are switched around. Just as the performance is about to begin, Ui enters the school's crowded auditorium and tells the Light Music Club's fifth member Azusa to follow her. While going to their places, Azusa is troubled because her friends did not come to practice for their band's upcoming concert at all. However, she knows that the rehearsing for the class act was important too, so she punishes herself for her selfish thoughts while Ui tells her to hurry up.
Together with Jun, the two then watch the class act which is of very high quality, leading Azusa to think that the four others really did forget about her and the club. Some time later, while Azusa was practicing in the Light Music Club's room, Mio, Yui, Mugi and Ritsu enter the room and instantly recognise that Azusa's mood is not the best. Embarrassed, Azusa voices her concerns which are completely negated by her friends who all apologise for not having the time to practice alongside Azusa, making her happy again. Nevertheless, the kiss Yui offers her to make up is turned down as usual. Pumped up, Ritsu announces an overnight session to practice for the concert. Azusa wonders if this might go against the rules and also states that she's not prepared to stay the night, to which Ritsu reassures her that it will work out when they wait a bit, which is the moment Sawako Yamanaka appears with sleeping backs, just as predicted by Ritsu. After the band rehearses a bit, Yui and Ritsu start acting funny due to the weird mood they get in, much to Mio's annoyance. Mugi quickly starts to suggest writing a whole new song, leading Yui and Ritsu to completely drown out Mio's shy proposal with the puns they advertised a while ago which finally leads Azusa to laugh like crazy too. After realising it's already three o'clock in the night, Azusa suggest to get some sleep but is turned down by Ritsu who orders an all-nighter. However, two hours later, most of the band is sound asleep which does not surprise Azusa in the least. In the morning, Sawako enthusiastically enters the room with big news, but nobody pays attention to her because they are either still asleep or way too tired, which deeply hurts her. However, after sadly looking at the "Ho-kago Tea Time" shirts she made, the others finally get what she was trying to say and ecstatically praise her, much to her pleasure.
Some time later, HTT is preparing their concert while wearing Sawako's shirts. When the curtain rises, they realise that the whole audience is wearing the same shirts, which absolutely baffles them. While they are still confused, Nodoka enters the stage and introduces the band to the audience. Mio asks her about all her efforts, to which Nodoka embarrassingly admits that she promised Megumi to do something for the "Mio Akiyama fan club" since she is the new president after all. Afterwards, she tells them that all shirts came from Sawako, forcing the band to thank her once again. A tearful Yui then starts the introduction but is still too stunned from the huge surprise. After getting cheered on by the audience, she recovers her focus and starts the concert. Afterwards, the band silently sits in the clubroom, still numb from what happened. After they finally broke the silence, they could not stop talking about the concert, which was a giant success.
Meanwhile, Sawako and Nodoka approach the clubroom to congratulate the band for the concert. However, when they enter the room, they find the five members sleeping with a happy smile on their faces.
An additional scribble which was used as a bonus, showing Nodoka asking Sawako about the financing of the shirts.
A colored version of the cover was made which can be seen above in the Gallery section.

Васи́лий Васи́льевич Швед (; 11 декабря 1971, Песочная, Николаевский район, Львовская область, УССР) — украинский футболист, нападающий.

Игровая карьера
Воспитанник николаевского футбола. Первые тренеры — Ярослав Вацек и Фёдор Вирт. Во взрослый футбол начинал играть в любительской команде «Николаев», работая на местном цементном заводе. На профессиональном уровне дебютировал в 1993 году в команде «Газовик» (Комарно). После трёх сезонов во второй лиге, перешёл в ряды польской «Люблинянки», руководители которой планировали впоследствии перепродать Шведа в швейцарский клуб «Лугано». В Польше игра у Шведа начиналось всё хорошо, но в третьем матче после игрового столкновения с одним из игроков «Полонии» футболист был дисквалифицирован на полгода, а последовавшая за этим тяжёлая травма не позволила ему более претендовать на место в составе.

По возвращении на Украину, Швед стал одним из ведущих игроков «Газовика». В сезоне 1999/00 футболист становился лучшим бомбардиром второй лиги, поразив ворота соперника 21 раз. Уверенная игра нападающего привлекла к нему внимание тренеров львовских «Карпат», которые выступали в то время в высшей лиге.

В первом же сезоне в высшем дивизионе Швед стал лучшим бомбардиром «Карпат», однако в дальнейшем подобной результативностью не отличался и по итогам сезона 2002/03 покинул команду. Доигрывал на профессиональном уровне в клубах низших лиг, среди которых стрыйская «Газовик-Скала», «Техно-Центр» и тернопольская «Нива». В составе «Скалы» участвовал в чемпионском сезоне 2004/04 второй лиги, однако провёл не достаточно матчей для получения медалей.

После завершения активных выступлений продолжил играть на уровне любительских коллективов в составе львовской «Галичины» и «Карпат» (Каменка-Бугская). Обладатель Кубка Украины среди любителей (2006). Чемпион Львовщины — 1989, 1993, 2005, 2009 гг.

Вне футбола
Окончил Львовский государственный университет физической культуры. В браке с женой Яриной воспитывал четырёх детей — трёх сыновей и дочь. Старший сын — Марьян, — профессиональный футболист.

Bischoff v. Wethered, 76 U.S. 9 Wall. 812 812 (1869)
Bischoff v. Wethered
76 U.S. (9 Wall.) 812
1. A judgment recovered in the Common Pleas, at Westminster, England, against a person in the United States, without any service of process on him or any notice of the suit other than a personal one served on him in this country, has no validity here, even of a prima facie character.
2. On a suit at law involving a question of priority of invention where a patent under consideration is attempted to be invalidated by a prior patent, counsel cannot require the court to compare the two specifications and to instruct the jury, as matter of law, whether the inventions therein described are or are not identical. The rule on the subject stated.
Bischoff and others brought an action in the court below against Wethered to recover damages for breach of covenant in the assignment of one-fortieth part of an English patent granted to one Newton. The covenant was that the patent was in all respects valid and unimpeachable. The breach complained of was that it was null and void. The declaration contained certain other counts -- namely the ordinary money counts and a count on a judgment recovered in the Common Pleas, at Westminster Hall, in England. To the latter count the defendant pleaded nul tiel record. The only evidence adduced in its support was an exemplified copy of a judgment recovered against the defendant in the said Common Pleas without any service of process on him or any notice of the suit other than a personal notice served in the City of Baltimore, and as no evidence was adduced to sustain the common counts, the chief question in the case arose under the count on the alleged covenant, that the patent in question was valid and unimpeachable.
This patent was granted to Newton on the 25th of May, 1853, and was for certain improvements in the generation of steam, consisting of an accessory steam pipe carried from the boiler through the fire or chimney so as to cause the steam conveyed therein to become superheated, and from thence carried to the steam chest or to an intermediate pipe, there to connect with the ordinary steam pipe which conveys the steam from the boiler to the engine, so as to mix the superheated
Page 76 U. S. 813
steam with the ordinary steam as it comes from the boiler. The effect of this mixture is described to be that the superheated steam converts into steam all the remaining watery particles, froth and foam, contained in the ordinary steam, and thus dries and rarefies the whole mass and makes it more effective.
The plaintiff, having put in evidence the assignment containing the covenant declared on and the letters patent granted to Newton in order to show the breach of covenant, put in evidence a prior English patent, granted to one Poole in 1844, for an invention which the plaintiff claimed was identical with that patented to Newton. The plaintiff then called upon the court to compare the two specifications and to instruct the jury that the patent to Newton was not a valid and unimpeachable patent, inasmuch as the invention therein described was not novel, but was already substantially described in the specification of Poole, and that under the covenants contained in the assignment, the plaintiffs were entitled to recover �500, the amount of purchase money paid, with interest. This the court refused to do, and the plaintiffs excepted.
The defendant then prayed the court to instruct the jury, amongst other things, that there is not on the face of the respective patents of Newton and Poole such an identity as authorizes the court to pronounce that they are for one and the same invention, and that for that reason the patent granted to Newton is invalid; and such invalidity being necessary to support the plaintiffs' claim and being wanting, the verdict must be for the defendant. The court granted this prayer and instructed the jury accordingly, and a verdict was found for the defendant. The plaintiffs excepted to this instruction. The case being brought here, the questions were:
1st (one not pressed). What effect had the proceeding in the Common Pleas in England?
2d. The principal one(whether the court below was bound to compare the two specifications, and to instruct the jury as matter of law whether the inventions therein described were, or were not, identical.
ERROR TO THE CIRCUIT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF MARYLAND
MR. JUSTICE BRADLEY delivered the opinion of the Court.
As to the first point raised -- to-wit the effect of the proceeding in the Common Pleas at Westminster Hall -- it is enough to say that it was wholly without jurisdiction of the person, and whatever validity it may have in England, by virtue of statute law, against property of the defendant there situate, it can have no validity here, even of a prima facie character. It is simply null.
The second and principal question in the case raises an important question of practice under the patent law, and deserves to be seriously considered by this Court.
It is undoubtedly the common practice of the United States circuit courts, in actions at law, on questions of priority of invention, where a patent under consideration is attempted to be invalidated by a prior patent, to take the evidence of experts as to the nature of the various mechanisms or manufactures described in the different patents produced, and as to the identity or diversity between them, and to submit all the evidence to the jury under general instructions as to the rules by which they are to consider the evidence. A case may sometimes be so clear that the court may feel no need of an expert to explain the terms of art or the descriptions contained in the respective patents, and may, therefore, feel authorized to leave the question of identity to the jury, under such general instructions as the nature of the documents seems to require. And in such plain cases the court would probably feel authorized to set aside a verdict unsatisfactory to itself, as against the weight of evidence. But in all such cases, the question would still be treated as a question of fact for the jury, and not as a question of law for the court. And under this rule of practice, counsel would not have the right to require the court, as matter of law, to pronounce upon the identity or diversity of the several inventions described in the patents produced. Such, we think, has been the prevailing rule in this country, and we see no sufficient reason
for changing it. The control which the courts can always exercise over unsatisfactory verdicts will enable them to prevent any wrong or injustice arising from the action of juries, whereas if the courts themselves were compellable to decide on these often recondite and difficult questions, without the aid of scientific persons familiar with the subjects of the inventions in question, they might be led into irremediable errors, which would produce great injustice to suitors. We are disposed to think that the practice adopted by our courts is, on the whole, the safest and most conducive to justice.
It may be objected to this view that it is the province of the court, and not the jury, to construe the meaning of documentary evidence. This is true. But the specifications of patents for inventions are documents of a peculiar kind. They profess to describe mechanisms and complicated machinery, chemical compositions and other manufactured products, which have their existence in pais, outside of the documents themselves, and which are commonly described by terms of the art or mystery to which they respectively belong, and these descriptions and terms of art often require peculiar knowledge and education to understand them aright, and slight verbal variations, scarcely noticeable to a common reader, would be detected by an expert in the art as indicating an important variation in the invention. Indeed, the whole subject matter of a patent is an embodied conception outside of the patent itself, which, to the mind of those expert in the art, stands out in clear and distinct relief, whilst it is often unperceived, or but dimly perceived, by the uninitiated. This outward embodiment of the terms contained in the patent is the thing invented, and is to be properly sought, like the explanation of all latent ambiguities arising from the description of external things, by evidence in pais.
We are, therefore, of opinion that the circuit court was justified in refusing to give the instructions demanded by the plaintiffs, and in giving that which was asked by the defendant.
The precise question has recently undergone considerable
discussion in England, and has finally resulted in the same conclusion to which we have arrived. The cases will be found collected in the last edition of Curtis on Patents. [Footnote 1] It was at first decided in the cases of Bovill v. Pimm, [Footnote 2] Betts v. Menzies, [Footnote 3] and Bush v. Fox, [Footnote 4] that it was the province and duty of the court to compare the documents and decide on the identity or diversity of the inventions. But in 1862, Lord Westbury, in two very elaborate judgments, one of which was delivered in the House of Lords on occasion of overruling the decision in Betts v. Menzies, held that it belonged to the province of evidence, and not that of construction, to determine this question. "In all cases, therefore," he concludes,
"where the two documents profess to describe an external thing, the identity of signification between the two documents containing the same description, must belong to the province of evidence, and not that of construction."
Lord Westbury very justly remarks, that two documents using the same words, if of different dates, may intend very diverse things, as indeed was actually decided by this Court in the case of Bridge Proprietors v. Hoboken Company. [Footnote 5] The Court in that case said:
"It does not follow that when a newly invented or discovered thing is called by some familiar word, which comes nearest to expressing the new idea, that the thing so styled is really the thing formerly meant by the familiar word."
And the decision was that the word "bridge," in an old bridge law, passed in 1790, did not mean the same thing as the same word meant when applied to the modern structure of a railroad bridge.
This view of the case is not intended to, and does not, trench upon the doctrine that the construction of written instruments is the province of the court alone. It is not the construction of the instrument, but the character of the thing invented, which is sought in questions of identity and diversity of inventions.

The world had suddenly grown small. It was dark and empty, like a womb waiting for life. He remembered being a child, sitting on his porch in the warm summer air and watching the sky.
"Mama," he said, his voice hushed.
"Why do they say 'the skies'?"
"Why do they say the 'skies'? Isn't there only one?"
He turned to look at her sitting behind him on the porch swing, needles and yarn in her hands. She gave him a quizzical expression. "Who's they?"
He shrugged but kept looking at her, waiting for her answer. She lowered her knitting and smiled thoughtfully. Finally she said, "It's just a thing people say, like how they say 'man' when they're referring to all of humanity. The skies are the sky, and the sky means the skies. They are the same."
She took up her knitting again and didn't answer.
He waited a moment and then, unable to hold it back, he asked, "Would Daddy know?"
She tensed slightly, something he only noticed because he'd seen it so many times before. He waited, watching her slender fingers as they manipulated the needles, slipping the yarn over one, then the other, looping, plucking, in a ceaseless repetition. He looked at her mouth, which had changed into a thin line, and he wished he could take it back.
"Daddy would probably have told you the same thing, Phillip," she said. She wouldn't look at him. He turned back around. Above him the moon was shining, full and bright. There was a halo of light around it and in that space the sky, or skies, looked blue instead of deep, dark black.
He opened his eyes.
Where was the moon now? Was it still hanging over his childhood home and his father's grave? Was his mother still knitting on the porch, and was he still sitting there looking at it?
If I look back at the earth, will I be looking back in time? Could my past self tell me not to come up here? Would I listen?
He heard his own voice screaming in his head, poisoning the little air he had. In his mind's eye, he watched himself falling away, saw the broken pieces of their metal sanctuary breaking apart, spitting the others in every possible direction at unstoppable speeds. It seemed so long ago, but it might have been yesterday, or moments ago.
Phillip. He tasted his name in his mouth, but he did not recognize it. What did it matter what he had been called? Who would ever speak his name for him to hear again? Who had said his name last? He thought of his father, and the last time he'd called his name strong and loud. Up here it could have also been moments ago, or just yesterday, or it could be happening right now back on earth, back in time, when he was young.
Please don't go, he whispered, his voice thin and tired.
"I'm not going anywhere," his father had said.
He couldn't feel his face, but he knew he was crying. The stars slipped over his helmet, blinking at him sadly, farther away than anything had ever been.
He thought of his father's funeral and how the moon hadn't gone down yet that morning. He held his mother's hand as they stood by the casket, not yet lowered into the ground. She wasn't crying, so he tried not to either. A man was speaking about his father, weaving a eulogy –
"Phillip Wells was a brave man….an American hero taken too soon…survived by his wife and child…"
He wanted to know why his father was being placed in the earth when he knew he would have wanted to be shot into the sky.
"I've always been a bird, Philly," his father had said one night as they lay side by side in his small, child's bed. On the ceiling were glow in the dark stars, on the walls were rocket decals and posters of the solar system.
"Am I a bird, too?"
"No," he replied, looking up at the ceiling where the plastic stars glittered. "You're a comet trapped in a boy, and you're going to break out one day, but not before I'm ready to let you go."
"I'm not a comet," he said, surprised.
"Then you're a supernova."
He sucked in a labored breath, felt his lungs aching within him. His mother had asked him not to go before he left. It was just yesterday, or maybe moments ago.
"God didn't make us to go up there. He made us to stay down here. This is where we belong." Tears were in her eyes as she spoke. How could she understand he was a supernova? How could he explain what his father had always known?
He saw the rocket breaking apart. He remembered the way it felt when the vacuum reached in and grabbed them, threw them across the stars. He heard himself screaming in his head, felt his lungs working to keep him alive. He knew it was of no use, that this suit was his world, his home, his tomb.
"I want to be a bird too, Daddy. Like you."
"No," his father said, looking down at him. They had the same eyes. "There's too much of you. The earth won't be able to hold you. You're meant to fly higher than these skies."
He thought of the metal rocket breaking from the atmosphere, of the fire beneath it, rising higher and higher into the sky. He felt the earth trying to hold them back, begging them to stay where they belonged. He thought of the earth getting smaller, becoming a blue star and the moon a speck of dust. And he remembered his own voice, speaking to his mother, his father, the earth, and God:
"I am a supernova."
It was only now though that he understood – now, as he sped through space searching for his father's eyes, for his mother, for earth, for home, for heaven – that supernovas were only ever dying stars.

Waynesville Chevy's 3rd Disabled American Veterans Classic Car Show on October 4th, 2014. We had a huge turnout of 70+ cars at Waynesville Chevrolet Buick and Waynesville Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (collectively referred to as simply Waynesville Automotive Group) in Western North Carolina. We've held it every year since our inception in 2014 at our home campus at 280 Hyatt Creek Road in Waynesville, North Carolina. Full gallery below. Please forgive this young whippersnapper for not being able to identify every make and/or model of vehicle pictured. I did the best that I could to be as descriptive as possible on vehicles that were unfamiliar to me. If you are the owner of the vehicle or could help update the information please feel free to email me or drop a comment below. We'll update it as we go.

Ecuadorian Squirrel Monkey Distribution
Ecuadorian Squirrel Monkey Characteristics
The Ecuadorian squirrel monkey[1] is a species of the squirrel monkey.
It has a body and a head length of between 9.8 and 12.6 in (25 and 32 cm) with a tail length of between 13 and 17 in (34 and 44 cm).
Males weigh between 885 and 1, 380 grams (31.2 and 48.7 ounces), and females weigh between 590 and 1, 150 grams (21 and 41 ounces).
Its coloration is similar to the Guianan squirrel monkey, but its fur is darker.
Ecuadorian Squirrel Monkey Facts
Although it occasionally ventures to the ground to play or feed, the Ecuadorian squirrel monkey is strictly an arboreal primate.
Its small body and long tail give it the incredible ability to sneak up and down branches on all fours (quadrupedally) with unwavering agility.
Males operate according to their own hierarchy, which to some extent, determines who is allowed to mate.
Ecuadorian squirrel monkeys often mix with groups of capuchin monkeys.
Although not aggressively territorial, they use scents to mark their territory or leave a trail for other group members to follow.

Bacteria that break down toxic compounds may have tricked scientists into underestimating the threat posed by spreading oceanic dead zones. But there's a silver lining: the bacteria might help bring them back to life.
In a 4,200-square-mile Atlantic ocean swath off the coast of Namibia, bacteria converted lethal sulphide into foul-smelling but otherwise harmless sulphur and sulphate.
"This is the first time that large-scale detoxification of sulphidic waters by chemolithotrophs has been observed in an ocean-open system," write European microbiologists and geochemists in a paper published Wednesday in Nature.
Sulphide is a major cause of the destruction found in eutrophic waters — where an excess of nutrients, usually from agricultural waste and human sewage, produces massive algal blooms whose decomposition releases sulphide and feeds oxygen-hungry bacteria. Chemically toxic and stripped of oxygen, the resulting waters soon become inhospitable to life. More than 400 dead zones have already been found among continental coastlines, often in prime commercial fishing habitat, and their size and frequency are increasing.
If sulphide-gobbling bacteria could be used to clean these dead zones, said biologist Robert Diaz of the Virginia Institute of Marine Sciences, who was not involved in the study. "It would be a great benefit."
But Diaz cautioned that controlling the bacteria could prove difficult, and cleansed waters would still be low in oxygen. Better to prevent ocean-strangling pollution in the first place, he said.
Marcel Kuypers, a study co-author and Max Planck Institute microbiologist, was also cautious of open-ocean bacterial remediation, though he said bacteria could be used to clean ponds in fish farms.
The implications of the findings, he said, are less immediately practical than foreboding.
Bacteria may detoxify sulphidic areas before our satellites notice them, but not before marine life is extinguished.
"We may have underestimated the damage caused to ocean ecosystems by human-produced eutrophic events," said Kuypers.

This is the code I have now:
int main(void)
{
char string[101];
int menu;

do
{
    printf("Enter a text message (maximum 100 characters long) : ");
    scanf(" %100[^\n]s", string);
}
while (string[0] == '\0');

If I take the space out in front of the % in the scanf line, and user just hits enter, the computer goes into an infinite loop and just prints gook to the screen.  (The text on the screen is moving too fast for me to make sure, but I 'think' it is constantly printing the printf statement.)
With the space there, and the user just hits enter, it moves the cursor down to the next line until the user enters a valid string then moves on.
I want the question repeated every time the user just hits enter.  I have tried empty for(;;), while and here you see the do-while variation.
Any comments welcome.  Thanks.

A: I would suggest using fgets rather than scanf, because for your purpose, you want
to deal with a line at a time, and the input might contain embedded whitespace.  You should check the user's input for trailing newlines and strip them (by replacing with '\0').  Then your while condition should work the way you want.

A: Well, I would say better to use fgets:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)
{
    char string[101];
    int menu;

    do
    {
        printf("Enter a text message (maximum 100 characters long) : ");
        fgets(string, 100, stdin);
    }while (string[0] == '\n');

}

You should note that fgets do not discard \n character and reads it. When you will press Enter then \n will stored at string[0]. Therefore, you need to check string[0] == '\n'.

A: The basic problem without the space is that if the user just hits Enter, the scanf will fail (so nothing will be written to string), and NO INPUT WILL BE READ.  So the newline will still be on the input, which means that when you loop, it will immediately fail again giving you an infinite loop.
With the space, the scanf call will read and ignore whitespace (including newlines) without returning, so when the user hits Enter it stay in the scanf.
The simplest solution is to just use fgets:
do {
    printf("Enter a text message (maximum 100 characters long) : ");
    if (!fgets(string, sizeof(string), stdin)) {
        /* error or eof */
        exit(1); }
} while (string[0] == '\n');

But this does not ignore leading whitespace on the line and will accept a line consisting only of spaces.  If you want that, you'll need something like:
char *p;
do {
    printf("Enter a text message (maximum 100 characters long) : ");
    if (!fgets(string, sizeof(string), stdin)) {
        /* error or eof */
        exit(1); }
    p = string + strspn(string, " \t"); /* skip over leading spaces and tabs */
} while (p[0] == '\n' || p[0] == 0);

One of the major limitations of scanf is that its not good at distinguishing between spaces and newlines -- it treats both a whitespace.

T'was the night before Christmas and Santa was sick in bed .
"The worst flu he's had in decades." The doctor said .
We all started questioning who the pilot would be on this year's annual flight.
Santa looked over to the elves. "I'm driving the sleigh." he said in his weakened, raspy voice .
Santa sat up and attempted to argue the point." Lie down!" the doctor bellowed.
Santa slumps back in his bed, sad and depressed. The group grew deeply depressed and It showed.
"Christmas will go on. But, no deliveries." The doctor proclaimed. The Elves hung their heads, even sadder then St. Nick.
A year's worth of work and millions of unhappy kids because Santa's deathly sick.
As the elves filtered out of the room to let Santa rest, Intercoms and loudspeakers came to life.
"All hands on deck. Time to load up to sleigh." They were all shocked to hear Santa's wife.
Elves from all over the North Pole ran to the toy shop to see what's In the world was going on.
"Santa's been relying on you to make the toys. He's been making deliveries longer than any of us can remember.
Now, he's ill and can't even get out of bed. It's up to us to make the children happy this December.
The elves took In what she said. Some were teary eyed. Then, two by two and three by three everybody started filling the sleigh.
Mrs. Claus smiled as the newfound energy. She thought to herself that it won't be long before they were underway .
The sleigh filled up quickly with time to spare. Mrs. Claus said to prepare the reindeer In the stable.
She quickly dispelled the thought, knowing what was at stake. Then, she was startled to see a little man outside the Sleigh.
"Me?" He said in shock. "I've never driven this sleigh before." She cut him off before he could say another word.
"They'll listen to you. You've rode them individually. Now, you'll drive them as a group." Excited to be of help on this Important day, he ran to the stables to harness the herd.
Mrs. Claus sat in the sleigh, the stable keeper by her side. With all the toymakers watching, Mrs. Claus signaled to open the gates and the stable keeper let out of booming cry.
"Take us out Rudolph. on Dasher, Dancer, Prancer and Vixen. On, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen. Pull with all your might.
The team pulled the sleigh slowly at first. But, quickly built up speed and took flight.
Up through the sky, they flew with great speed. From house to house, to cities and countries, it was a blur.
The stable keeper spoke up briefly between stops. "The fastest I've worked in all my life. Mrs. Claus had to concur.
For hours, they delivered presents of all shapes and sizes. Racing against each time zones morning sun.
As a trip to drew to a close, Mrs. Claus was relieved the trip was almost done .
The last presents were delivered. The once filled sleigh, now was just so much empty space .
The hours had flown by as the pair dropped off the last gifts on their overnight race.
Both were exhausted as they spotted the North Pole. It was a welcome sight .
The equally tired reindeer came in for a smooth landing .Rudolph was so wasted, he was losing his light.
The stable keeper and his crew quickly unharnessed the reindeer to put them all to bed .
Mrs. Claus left them quickly to see her husband Instead .
He was still in bed, fast asleep. The doctor said he was given medication and slept the day through.
"Relax." The doctor said." Christmas Eve is long over ."Santa was stunned about the news of the Christmas he missed.
Santa tried to stand, But, was still weak. He motioned for his wife to come near.
Like a bolt of lightening, Santa was up in a flash. He put out his arm and she took it and held it tight .
As they walked out of the infirmary to go home. Santa shouted back to the doctor .
"Spread the word. Our house is off limits for the week." He looked back to his wife with a smile then wished the doctor a happy Christmas and a good night .

Reuters – A senior U.S. diplomat involved in trying to mediate an end to Egypt's political crisis left the country on Wednesday, Cairo airport officials said, after the Egyptian government declared that diplomatic efforts had failed.
U.S. Deputy Secretary of State William Burns had held talks with both the government and members of the Muslim Brotherhood during the mediation effort, together with envoys from the European Union, United Arab Emirates and Qatar.

Cute and curious… I want to turn the page and see what happens next!
Best of luck with your postcard Linda!
Thanks Roberta! I'm almost finished with the back of the card, which is sort of a page turn… it's another scene anyway. I'll post it when I'm done.
PS Print is doing one of their 50% off deals, but I have to get it in to them by the 30th! Sometimes having deadlines like that are the only way I can get anything done, hee hee!


I have double, sometimes triple or quadruple, vision. The images are vertical, not horizontal. I've had my eyes checked repeatedly and there is nothing wrong with them, and the ophthalmologist says it's probably a refraction problem caused by dry eyes, and he prescribes drops. But they don't seem to help. Has anyone had this problem?
It's not totally debilitating. In fact it almost seems like my brain gets rid of the overlapping images most of the time and they are not bothersome. Glasses help but don't eliminate it. I mainly notice them if I am trying to focus on something small and important, or if I look up in the sky, there are three stars where there should only be one.
Question: "How do the eye lenses see the colors?"
I'd recommend seeing a neurophthalmologist. It sounds like a problem with the muscle control of your eyes, which is more a neurologic problem than an eye problem. Differential diagnosis is pretty broad, so I won't speculate as to the cause, but a neurophthalmologist,or at least a neurologist, would be a better specialty for finding an answer.
I've noticed a similar problem and I tried changing the background color on my monitor or lowering the intensity of the whites that are always being produced. That seems to be helpful for monitors and TV sets. Ever try that?
I am no expert on the eyes, but i believe you may suffer from some retina nerve isolation damage.. As you probably know, your nerves are shielded by a layer of flexible, but strong canals. If there is a little fluid in these nerve canals you may experience some signals being reflected over them. Your brain may still be able to make an image out of it though.

An Iraq for All Iraqis
Beyond Sectarianism
By Yassir Khudayri

In early October 2019, in Baghdad's Tahrir Square and in many of Iraq's other major cities, young Iraqis took the streets, chanting slogans such as "with life and blood we defend you, Iraq." To those unfamiliar with the specifics of political and social life in the Middle East, where sectarian divisions often trump national identities, this may not have seemed like a big deal. It may have seemed, in fact, like just one more of the countless mass protests that have engulfed the region over the past decade.
In both respects, however, these observers would be wrong. The chants were a big deal. And the protests, while not entirely unprecedented, were nevertheless a sharp break from the norm. Because, for the first time in recent memory, Iraqis weren't demanding their rights under the banner of any specific religious or ethnic group, but their rights as Iraqi citizens. And they weren't demanding privileges—they were demanding the fall of a system that has worked to keep them apart, and that has been feeding into the pockets of corrupt elites to the detriment of ordinary citizens.
To understand why this embrace of nationality is so important, however, a look into the recent past is necessary. Under Iraq's current model of ethno-sectarian balancing [paywall], established after the United States-led invasion of 2003, coalition governments hand out ministerial positions and budgets according to the proportion of the country's sectarian populations—Shiite or Sunni Muslim Arabs, and Kurds. This has led to staggering corruption in which the elite's control over government ministries, major enterprises, and media has actively worked to maintain the status quo. Spawned in the aftermath foreign occupation, this form of governance has benefitted few and served as little more than a failed attempt for perpetual ceasefire, rather than a sustainable system of government meeting the needs of the Iraqi people.
Corruption and sectarian favoritism in the public sector have played a major role in entrenching sectarian division among Iraqis and have led to rampant unemployment and lack of access to basic services. Transparency International ranks Iraq as the 18th most corrupt country in the world; according to official figures cited in a report from the Telegraph, since 2004, a remarkable $450 billion in public funds have been unaccounted for. Meanwhile, about a quarter of the country's young population is unemployed, while access to clean water and electricity is unreliable at best.
This wave of protests—which encompasses multiple sectors of the population—illustrates the rise of a pan-Iraqi movement. Just as importantly, this remains an essentially grassroots-run and leaderless movement. In the same streets where over a decade of inter-sectarian fighting took place, Iraqis are now willing to face a rain of bullets and tear gas for the sake of a government that works for all its citizens. This is unique, and its importance should not be understated.
The international community must acknowledge the magnitude of this movement and support protestors' legitimate demands—but it must tread carefully. States and international groups should learn from past mistakes and refrain from quick-fix solutions, like throwing money at the problem or calling for new elections, that have proven to be counterproductive, especially in the Middle East.
What can the international community do? As a start, it should use its leverage with the Iraqi government to ensure an immediate halt to the slaughter of peaceful protesters. Since the movement began in October, about 400 protesters have been killed, while thousands have been injured by government forces. Additionally, the global community should pressure the government to recognize protesters' demands and human rights.
This applies regardless of the resignation of Prime Minister Abdul Mahdi, since this systemic problem goes beyond any one head of government. The UN Secretary General has uttered harsh words at the Iraqi government's brutality against its people, while the Arab League's chief called for "restraint." Any systemic change should not be held hostage to constitutional rupture or the loss of any more lives. Change must start now in support of a transition to a new form of governance, which can then build on its own progress. The demands of protesters should be met now, and the international community has a duty to acknowledge them and support the sitting Iraqi government in adopting structural changes for a new system, regardless of who sits in Baghdad.
What is outlined above is necessary, but it will not sufficiently address the matter. There are too many dimensions to resolving this issue, more than I could possibly explain or understand. But one thing is for certain: The rage that initially drew people to Tahrir Square has rapidly turned into a passionate display of popular unity—something that was once thought impossible, and that does not appear to be slowing down. A generation born into war, and ripped apart by tragedy, is now rising to demand recognition of their common identity.
