My first "college" spring break! After completing 3 service trips for previous breaks, my friends and I decided to "go out with a bang" (even though I have an extra year). We sailed on the Carnival Conquest on a Western Caribbean cruise enjoying lots of fun and sun!
We left after my class finished on Saturday (yes, apparently having class on Saturday of Spring Break is legal) and after driving through the whole night we made it to the beach in time to see the sunrise.
Our car even made a stop a Cracker Barrel. Which is a big deal for me considering my parents always refused to stop at this "road trip must."
Getting on the ship itself was a long process and running on little to no sleep made it exponentially more painful. But we rewarded ourselves with a bucket of beer before setting sail!

Q: Prove $\frac{\sqrt[n]k+1}{\sqrt[n]k-1}=\frac{2}{k-1}\left(\frac{k+1}{2}+\sum_{j=1}^{n-1}\sqrt[n]{k^j}\right)$ Ramanujan's nested radical
(1)
$$\frac{\sqrt[4]5+1}{\sqrt[4]5-1}=\frac{1}{2}\left(3+\sqrt[4]5+\sqrt[4]{5^2}+\sqrt[4]{5^3}\right)$$
We proposed the general formula of Ramanujan's equation above
(2)
$$\frac{\sqrt[n]k+1}{\sqrt[n]k-1}=\frac{2}{k-1}\left(\frac{k+1}{2}+\sum_{j=1}^{n-1}\sqrt[n]{k^j}\right)$$
Setting $k=5$ and $n=4$ yeild (1)
Prove (2)
Where $(k,n)\ge2$

A: Hint: For $a \ne 1$ you have the (finite) geometric sum formula
$$
 \sum_{j=1}^{n-1} a^j = \frac{a^n - 1}{a - 1} - 1 \, .
$$
With $a = \sqrt[n]{k}$ your result follows easily.

A: $$\begin{align}\frac{x+1}{x-1}&=\frac{(x+1)(x^{n-1}+\cdots+1)}{(x-1)(x^{n-1}+\cdots+1)}\\
&=\frac{x^n+2(x^{n-1}+\cdots+x)+1}{x^n-1}
\end{align}$$
Letting $x=\sqrt[n]k$ and you get:
$$\frac{\sqrt[n]k+1}{\sqrt[n]k-1}=\frac{k+2\left(\sum_{j=1}^{n-1}\sqrt[n]{k^j}\right)+1}{k-1}$$

This Word You Use All the Time Makes People Not Trust You, Experts Say
For the sake of yourself and all of your relationships, avoid saying this one word.
By Amber Raiken
Words mean everything, whether it's the way you handle an argument with a friend or how you talk about yourself. But in the midst of an important conversation, there's one word that you may not realize is better left unspoken. Even though this simple three-letter word may be common in your daily life, it can actually be hindering both you and your relationships, making people not trust you and depleting your confidence in yourself on top of it. According to experts, the one word you need to avoid saying or thinking is "try." To find out why this word needs to be cut from your vocabulary, keep reading. And for more words to stay away from, check out The One Word That's Secretly Killing Your Relationship, Experts Say.
When you say things like "I'll try"—whether it's to a boss, family member, or significant other—they may think that you're not deeply committed. "If someone is going to 'try' a new way of communicating, there is room for failure, and it unconsciously indicates a lack of commitment," explains Carrie C. Mead, LCPC.
The word "try" can also have a huge impact on how much you trust yourself and your ability to achieve your own goals, according to Randi Levin, a transitional life strategist. "Used in a conversation with yourself, 'trying' depletes confidence and erodes initiative and energy," she says. "It is as if you're not fully convinced you will succeed."
Christie Kederian, LMFT, says this three-letter word may have another underlying meaning. "As they say, 'the devil is in the details' and when we say we're 'trying,' it may mean that we aren't being specific. Or we may be emotionally or psychologically blocked on making progress toward action or accomplishment of our goals," Kederian says. "Additionally, at times it can be a plea to be relieved of responsibility, i.e. 'I tried and it didn't work.'"
But "try" isn't the only common word that's bad for you and all of your relationships. For more everyday words to avoid, read on, and for some other dangerous phrases, check out This Is the Worst Way You're Thanking Your Partner, Study Says.

"Maybe"

When you use the word "maybe" with someone, you're also secretly indicating a lack of commitment. By saying you'll "maybe do this," a part of you may feel like you're not good enough to do it or perhaps you just don't want to, but aren't being honest about that. "The word 'maybe' screams of indecisiveness and fear," Levin says. "Packed behind any 'maybe' is an excuse not to do something that you care about." And for more everyday words to ditch, check out This Is the Worst Thing You Could Say to an Ex.
"If"
While you may not realize it, the word "if" can be a barrier between you and an opportunity you really want. "When seeking a desired outcome, it's tempting to say 'if,'" says Omiete Charles-Davies, MBBS, founder of One Doctor. "The problem with that is that it sets an alternative in your mind."
Charles-Davies notes that instead of using "if," you can replace it with the word "when." For example, when talking about a promotion that you want, you should say "when I get the job" as opposed to "if I get the job." And for the one word that everyone is tired of hearing, check out The Most Annoying Word That You Keep Using.
Tracy Nathanson, LCSW, founder of Pace of Mind Therapy, points out that there's a great deal of pressure added to you and anyone you're talking to when you say "I must" or "you must." "This word represents automatic thoughts and thinking that we do not question or challenge," Nathanson says. And for more useful tips sent right to your inbox, sign up for our daily newsletter.
"Have to"
Much like "you must," saying "you have to" to someone is never a good idea, according to Karen Koenig, LCSW. When you say someone has to do something, they may feel like you're not giving them the freedom to trust you or their own instincts. "It's better to help the other person discover why they want/wish to do whatever it is," Koenig says. "These internal motivators come from the heart and are more likely to produce the desired effect."

Time: 1:58:18 – Chris is the first-ever Junior to become a BFC Champion.
Cycling & Athletic Experience: I've been riding a bike for five years. Prior to that I tried a lot of other sports like football, lacrosse, soccer and swimming but I wasn't that good at any of them – and none of them really ignited my passion. My dad encouraged me to take up cycling. I discovered I really liked it and I seemed to have some natural ability so I've stuck with it. Four years ago we moved from Indiana to Upstate NY to be closer to my dad's family. At that time I started riding for Killington Mountain School. And, although I race for KMS, I actually go to school at Holland Patent High School where I am set to graduate in June.
Cycling & Life Experience Over the Past Year: In August, a week after I won the New York State Time Trial, I was hit by truck which was backing into a local farm. I was airlifted to Upstate Medical Center in Syracuse where I spent the next month. My list of injuries read like a medical text book: ruptured spleen, broken leg, fractured mandible, punctured lungs, and the list went on. But my most serious injuries were a fractured spine and a traumatic brain injury. I wasn't sure I would ever be able to ride a bike again. Frankly, I wasn't sure I ever wanted to ride a bike again. My doctor cleared me to ride a stationary bike at Thanksgiving and I started riding on the road again around Christmas. I did my first race in March. My season to this point has been filled with some ups and downs but a lot more ups than downs. I recently finished 2nd in the Men's Collegiate A division at the Eastern Collegiate Cycling Championships in Providence, RI. That's probably the highlight of my season to-date.
Any Special Training: This year I decided to begin working with a coach – Andy Ruiz, who also rides the Black Fly. Andy has coached me in the past but I tended to not to follow his advice and do what I wanted. This year, given everything that's happened to me, I'm trying to be more disciplined and follow the workouts he prescribes.
Cycling & Other Goals: This year I don't have a lot of expectations for myself. I'm really taking it week to week. That said, I would really like to win the Black Fly again. Winning last year was one of the highlights of my season. My other goal for this season was to finish high school and get accepted to college. I am graduating in June in the top 10 of my class and am set to attend Union College this Fall.
Why the BFC? I rode the Black Fly for the first time when I was 14 finishing 10th overall. I wanted to do it when I was 13 but my dad said it was too far and the conditions were too bad. That was the year I think a hurricane washed out large sections of the road. (Editor's note: that was the epic BFC 2011 when the course was washed out in at least 5 places). Every year I've tried to improve my finish, finally winning it last year. It was one of the biggest thrills of my cycling career. My dad is fond of saying, you could win a stage of the Tour De France and most people would never know. But win the Black Fly and you're a local legend! They even announced it on the PA system at school the following Monday.
The day after I was hit by the truck and was lying unconscious in the hospital bed one of the first people who came to see me was a fellow Black Fly racer who was also a nurse at the hospital. They had heard about the accident and just wanted to come and wish me a speedy recovery. That's the kind of people who participate in the Black Fly.
How is the BFC different? The Black Fly Challenge is really one of a kind. There is no other race like it on the calendar. It offers riders the chance to experience a part of the Adirondacks that many people might not otherwise see. The scenery out on the Moose River Plains is incredible. One year we even heard a moose off in the underbrush while we were doing a practice ride! It also offers a much needed break from the usual road racing scene that most of us are accustomed to doing week in and week out.
How can we improve the BFC? It's hard to improve on perfection. Just keep doing what you're doing!


Permit and trail info to hike the famous Wave in Arizona, officially known as Coyote Buttes.
After 14 months of applying, I finally got lucky and won a permit to visit The Wave. To give you a quick background, "the wave" is officially known as North Coyote Buttes and is part of Paria Canyon/ Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness. It's one of the most coveted permits and hardest to get because they only have 20 permits available per day, 10 online and 10 in person. Many people have asked me why you need a permit to go here and according to the Bureau of Land Management, permits are required here to regulate and protect the remaining land to put it simply, but you can google that more.
Permits: You have to apply 3 months out for the 4th month and your chances are obviously higher on the weekdays but not much in my opinion. For example, I applied in March, got notified in April, and my permit was for July. You can see the calendar and number of applicants when submitting your own permit application to help you better pick your date. It's $5 per application and if you're one of the lucky 10 to win that online permit, you'll be notified by email and have to pay an additional $7 per person for your permit which will be mailed to you.
Quick overview of my trip: To be honest, my permit date was an inconvenience as I just came back from a trip and was heading out to another right after, but I waited so long for this, spent money on it every month for over a year, and although it was the hottest time of summer (permit was for July 31), I was invested and determined to make the trip out there, even for just a couple hours… which is exactly what I did.
I left LA at 11:46 am on Monday 7/30, got to camp at 10:40 pm, woke up and started hiking at 7:35 am Tues 7/31, finished at 11 am, and drove back to LA by 9 pm.
I don't recall the weather besides it being hot on the hike back, but my Garmin Fenix 5S Plus recorded the morning starting off at 79°, was 88° when I left the wave and 97° when I got back to the car.
Is The Wave in Utah or Arizona?
Well, when you enter down the House Rock Valley Road from Utah, the Wire Pass trailhead (where you start) is in Utah and most of the trail is in Utah, but you'll hike into Arizona by foot which is where the actual 'Wave' is.
Most of the state of AZ does not use Daylight Savings time so their clocks don't fast forward one hour in the Spring/Summer. Since I went in July, my clock started out in Utah time (+1 hr from LA) but as soon as I was at The Wave, my clock jumped back an hour which confused me at first. This really won't make much difference since you're hiking back out to the same time zone you started, but just something to keep in mind if you're tracking your time and wondered what happened to the extra hour.
1.7 miles past the trailhead is a BLM campground, Stateline Campground. The campground road starts right after you pass into Arizona but the campground is actually in Utah… so this whole area is on the border of AZ/UT. There are 7 sites, pit toilets, shaded structures with picnic tables and no water.
The trail is only 2.6 miles one way with little elevation gain. It's actually easy to navigate if you pay attention to the trail and your surroundings, but download the offline area on Google Maps because the trail is clearly marked or make sure you have another GPS device to help you stay on track!
Supposedly noon because that is when there are no shadows, but I would not recommend that in the summer for obvious reasons.
I started at 7:34 am, got to the wave at 8:54 am, left the wave at 9:46 am, and finished at 11 am. Yes, I spent about 2 hours at the wave taking it in, playing around, taking pics, eating lunch, and meeting new people. I waited 18 months (14 months applying, then 4 more months for permit date) to come here so I planned to take my sweet time.
No water source, very exposed and sandy. The trail starts off going through a wash and be sure to lookout for the trail to the right that leads out of it going uphill.
The night we arrived on 7/30/18, there were two ranger cars parked in the lot and turns out a European tourist was found dead that evening due to heat-related issues. This was the first death at the wave since the trio of deaths in July 2013 (which I hear is when they put up the one trail sign and started to provide detailed, photographic maps with the permits), so please be extra cautious if you head out in the summer. Be aware of the temps, start early, bring more water than you think you'll need, and don't expect any shade! Better safe than sorry.
There was a ranger checking off a list of permit-holders when we got back to the parking lot, so don't chance it. He asked us how many hikers were still out there, on their way out there, their conditions and if anyone seemed lost and had water, to make sure hikers were all safe.
Tips to get permits: none, sorry… after all, I tried 14 times… I've heard people apply for just 1 spot because your odds are higher, and some say to get a big group and have everyone submit an application.

Hi there! I'm planning on going to Az last week of feb. I know there's only twenty spots a day but what are the chances of me getting a walk in day pass once they open on off season like feb? Was planning on getting there once they open on a weekday.
Hi Lam, I wouldn't be able to tell you because I haven't ever tried, but remember that the walk up permits only has 10 spots, it's 20 total including online permits. From what I hear, the odds aren't any better and there's not really an "off" season for the wave. It's all luck… best of luck to you!
I read on your info that the max people per permit is 6 people?
Yup, according to the BLM.
Finally won a permit after 3 years of trying. Would you recommend a guide if going solo in July? Have done a bunch of hiking in that area, Subway, coyote gulch etc, but wanted to know how marked trailhead is? Thank so much!
Omg congrats!! Personally I don't think a guide is needed but it also depends on your comfort level with solo hiking and trail finding (which I don't think is hard here if you're prepared – download google maps offline version for the area beforehand, the trail is on it so just be aware if you stray from it). Note that July is brutally hot so please be extra prepared with water, especially if you're heading out alone!!

"The most advanced grain harvesting technology from front to back"
One of the key features on the five models – the S760, S770, S780, S785 and S790 – is technology that allows the combine to make necessary adjustments automatically while on the move.
Building on the proven field performance of the S600 Series combines introduced in 2012, the new S700 Series incorporates the latest in automated harvesting technology.
John Deere combine product manager Carsten Heftrig says: "These new S700 Series combines are the result of enhancements to our previous models that optimise and automate harvesting operations for both coarse and small grains."
John Deere has introduced the next generation of interactive combine adjustment (ICA2) which, after optimising machine settings such as forward speed, grain quality and losses, and cleanliness of the sample using ICA, changes the settings automatically to maintain the pre-selected output at a constant level.
The biggest physical difference customers will see in the new S700 Series combines, compared to previous models, is in the cab. This starts with the new CommandPro joystick, which features up to seven individually programmable shortcut buttons for customising the most useful functions.
The John Deere super 7800 series will be on show at Agritechnica, which runs from the November 12-18 2017 in Hanover, Germany. Not all products launched at the event will be available in Australia.


The Administrative Simplification provisions of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA, Title II) require the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to establish national standards for electronic health care transactions and national identifiers for providers, health plans, and employers. It also addresses the security and privacy of health data. Adopting these standards will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the nation's health care system by encouraging the widespread use of electronic data interchange in health care.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 Public Law 104-191 (HIPAA) was passed by Congress to reform the insurance market and simplify health care administrative processes.
The administrative simplification part of HIPAA is aimed at reducing administrative costs and burdens in the health care industry by adopting and requiring the use of standardized, electronic transmission of administrative and financial data.
HIPAA will have a significant impact on the healthcare industry over the next several years.
HIPAA requires the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) to adopt national uniform standards for the electronic transmission of certain health information.
Standards for Electronic Transactions – The term "Electronic Health Transactions" includes health claims, health plan eligibility, enrollment and di-enrollment, payments for care and health plan premiums, claim status, first injury reports, coordination of benefits, and related transactions.
In the past, health providers and plans have used many different electronic formats to transact medical claims and related business. Implementing a national standard is intended to result in the use of one format, thereby "simplifying" and improving transactions efficiency nationwide.
Virtually all health plans must adopt these standards. Providers using non-electronic transactions are not required to adopt the standards for use with commercial healthcare payers. However, electronic transactions are required by Medicare, and all Medicare providers must adopt the standards for these transactions. If they don't, they will have to contract with a clearinghouse to provide translation services.
Unique Identifiers for Providers, Employers, and Health Plans – In the past, healthcare organizations have used multiple identification formats when conducting business with each other – a confusing, error-prone and costly approach. It is expected that standard identifiers will reduce these problems.
Security Rule – The final Security Rule was published on February 20, 2003, and provides a uniform level of protection of all health information that is housed or transmitted electronically and that pertains to an individual. The Security Rule requires covered entities to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all electronic protected health information (ePHI) the covered entity creates, receives, maintains, or transmits.
It also requires entities to protect against any reasonably anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of ePHI, protect against any reasonably anticipated uses or disclosures of such information that are not permitted or required by the Privacy Rule, and ensure compliance by their workforce. Required safeguards include the application of appropriate policies and procedures, safeguarding physical access to ePHI, and ensuring that technical security measures are in place to protect networks, computers and other electronic devices.
Privacy Rule – The Privacy Rule is intended to protect the privacy of all individually identifiable health information in the hands of covered entities, regardless of whether the information is or has been in electronic form. The rule establishes the first "set of basic national privacy standards and fair information practices that provide all Americans with a basic level of protection and peace of mind that is essential to their full participation in their care". 65 Fed. Reg. at 82464.
Establish business associate agreements with business partners that safeguard their use and disclosure of PHI.
Significant resources need to be invested over the next several years to achieve compliance with HIPAA legislation and to realize the long-term benefits. The benefits of HIPAA include lowering administrative costs, enhancing the accuracy of data and reports, increasing customer satisfaction, reducing cycle time and improving cash management.

Once your loan is approved, you will be ready to take the final step that will lead to the door of your new home. Many homebuyers are intimidated by the closing process, but it's not as complicated as you may think. In fact, finding the right home is much more difficult than closing the deal.
The closing process begins with the borrower and lender meeting in the presence of a notary public. This is a person who is authorized to oversee, create or certify contracts, deeds and other legal documents. At the conclusion of the signing, the notary public will provide their stamp and signature, which certifies the identification of everyone present and the signatures on the loan application.
When you meet with the lender to close the loan, you will be required to produce your down payment and, if required, the closing costs. Ask your lender about acceptable payment methods, which may include a cashier's check or other certified funds. If you have an account with the lender, a personal check may be accepted in some circumstances.
At closing, this will be your final opportunity to review the loan documents. You should make sure that everything is accurate and as promised, including the interest rates and loan term. It's also important that you confirm that the names and addresses are correct, along with other important information relating to the loan. If anything is inaccurate, now is the time to make changes. Never sign the loan documents until everything is perfect.
Once everything is verified and the loan documents are approved by both you and the lender, it's time to sign on the dotted line. Believe it or not, this is one of the most nervous times for a homebuyer. If you've chosen the right home and are comfortable with your loan, however, it can also be one of the most exciting. Once the documents are signed, the notary public will affix his/her stamp and signature.
The final step in the closing process is a simple handshake. Most lenders and homebuyers will extend their hands and, with a smile, the person who was just a homebuyer is now a homeowner. Now that's something to shake on! With the keys to your abode now firmly in hand, it's time to get moving and turn your new house into a home.

Wonders of Europe
Monaco Cathedral
Monaco Cathedral / Berthold Werner, Wikimedia Commons / CC BY-SA 3.0
The present day Cathedral of Monaco symbolizes the rebirth of this small principality in the late 19th century, when Monaco turned into independent and very rich country. The old, medieval church was torn down and in its place was built new, magnificent cathedral.
Present day cathedral is located in the place where the first chapel of Monaco was built.
Permit to build a Christian chapel at the Castle of Monaco was issued by Innocent IV in 1247. This letter was issued on the day of Saint Nicholas of Myra – the same prototype of contemporary Santa Claus. Thus in 1322, it was decided to dedicate this church to this saint, patron of seafarers.
Construction of this church started in 1252 and over the years this structure was extended and made more beautiful.
New cathedral

After lengthy quarrels the parish of Monaco was separated from the Diocese of Nice in 1868, and it was decided to build a new, large cathedral.
It was time when Monaco suddenly became prosperous – there was built a railway and prince of Monaco had the happy thought to build a luxurious casino in 1863. Thus the small principality had the means to afford an impressive cathedral.
In 1874 the old church of Saint Nicholas was demolished and in 1875 the construction of the new cathedral started.
Cathedral was designed by Charles Lenormand, architect from Paris. For the construction was used the wonderful, light colored limestone from the nearby La Turbie in France.
Construction lasted until 1903 and the cathedral was consecrated in 1911.
Today the cathedral plays important role in the cultural and religious life of country. Here are organised numerous events such as the singing of Cathedral Choir School.
The history of royal family is closely linked to the cathedral – here are buried numerous members of Grimaldi family including Albert I, Grave Kelly and Rainier III. Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier married here in 1956.
Cathedral was built in the Neo-Romanesque style with many features in Neo-Byzantine style.

Sculptures in the facade were made by Henri Louis Cordier in 1883 – 1901. In this period of time he made also sculptures for the casino in Monte Carlo.
Beautiful is the Neo-Byzantine mosaic on the apse of cathedral.
Cathedral has 183 stained glass windows, all restored after the damage in World War II.
From the old church have been inherited important pieces of Renaissance art. Especially notable are paintings: retable paintings by Ludovico Brea, a famous Renaissance painter was made around 1500 and shows Mary Magdalene, Saint John with the donator for the painting – Antoine Teste at his feet as well as Saint Nicholas, Saint Stephen, Saint Lawrence and archangel Michael weighing souls. Another important piece of art is "Pieta" by François Brea (nephew of Louis Brea), painted in the time period between 1500 and 1505.

From the old Chapel comes also the Chapel of Blessed Sacrament with beautiful altar made from gilded walnut in Spanish Renaissance style, in 1667. This chapel serves as a funeral chapel for bishops and archbishops of Monaco.
In the cathedral are two organs, also the Grand Organ with 7000 pipes which was installed in 1976-1980. It is adorned with thin plates of plexiglass which can be illuminated according to the tone of instrument.

Pope accepts resignation of bishop who failed to report suspected abuse
by Cindy Wooden CNS
VATICAN CITY. Pope Francis has accepted the resignation of Bishop Robert W. Finn of Kansas City-St. Joseph, Missouri, who was convicted in 2012 on one misdemeanor count of failing to report suspected child abuse.
The Vatican announced the bishop's resignation April 21, specifying it was under the terms of the Code of Canon Law, which says, "A diocesan bishop who has become less able to fulfill his office because of ill health or some other grave cause is earnestly requested to present his resignation from office."
The Vatican offered no further comment.
The pope's acceptance of Bishop Finn's resignation comes after members of the Pontifical Commission for Child Protection announced that one of their priorities was to ensure measures were in place to promote the accountability of bishops in protecting children and upholding the Vatican-approved norms for dealing with accusations of child abuse made against church workers.
In an interview published April 20, Marie Collins, a member of the commission and a survivor of abuse, told the news site Crux, "I cannot understand how Bishop Finn is still in position, when anyone else with a conviction that he has could not run a Sunday school in a parish. He wouldn't pass a background check."
Bishop Finn is the highest-ranking U.S. Catholic official to face criminal charges related to the priest sex abuse scandal that erupted within the U.S. church in 2002.
In September the Vatican had asked Canadian Archbishop Terrence Prendergast of Ottawa, Ontario, to make an apostolic visitation to the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph.
On Sept. 6, 2012, Bishop Finn was convicted of one count of failing to report suspected child abuse and acquitted on another count in a brief bench trial.
Diocesan authorities' failure to immediately report a computer technician's discovery of child pornography on a computer used by Father Shawn Ratigan, then pastor of St. Patrick Parish in Butler, Missouri, led to Bishop Finn being charged with misdemeanors for failing to report suspected child abuse to state authorities. The Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph faced similar charges.
In August 2012, the former pastor pleaded guilty to five counts of producing or attempting to produce child pornography. He received 10 years for each count. In September 2013 he started his 50-year sentence in federal prison.
After the priest entered his guilty plea, the diocese filed a petition with the Vatican Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith that he be laicized.
The child pornography was first discovered in December 2010. Authorities were not notified until six months later, when a search of the priest's family home turned up images of child pornography.
Judge John M. Torrence of Jackson County Circuit in Missouri issued the verdict and sentenced the bishop to two years' probation. The charges carried a possible maximum sentence of one year in jail and a fine of up to $1,000. Torrence dismissed the charges against the diocese after sentencing the bishop.
Several of the steps taken by the diocese to address abuse, including mandatory training of all staff and all clergy and putting in place reporting requirements, were among conditions Torrence set for Bishop Finn's probation.
Bishop Finn, 62, is a native of St. Louis. Ordained to the priesthood in 1979, he was named coadjutor bishop of Kansas City-St. Joseph in 2004 and became bishop in 2005.
Jack Smith, diocesan communications director, said in a statement that Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann of Kansas City, Kansas, has been named diocesan administrator until a successor to Bishop Finn is appointed.

Q: Is there a way to display a picture on my website, only if the picture is not a null value on a list? I'm setting up a User Interface using a simple database and angular, where users can post a message, either with only a message, or with a picture attached to the message.
By doing some research, I found out about the built in ngIf conditions, where you can display variables if the variable doesn't hold a null value.
Here is my code and the output:

                            {{m.user_ID}}

 {{m.post_msg}}

 {{m.post_date}}

                               {{m.post_date|date("m/d/Y")}} -->

                            Post Details

                            thumb_up

                            thumb_down

I want to see if m.post_url contains a value. When null, I want to skip adding this variable to my website.
For example, last post, without a picture, I want it to look like this:

Sorry for my bad english, english is not my first language.

A: first of all, you are mixing angularJs syntax with new angular.
if you are using angularjs use ng-if in your image tag. it works properly.
as I can see you are using ng-repeat and ng-bind you are using angularjs and not angular.
so in your image tag use

For 7 days I fasted with Almased and did not get one migraine.
"I feel great! I sleep amazingly; I have a lot of energy and I am not hungry at all."
I've been trying to lose weight the last couple of years, but it has been very hard for me. I know I have to be consistent in a healthy diet, but I have not been. I eat healthy for a week and then get tired of it and go back to eating unhealthy again. Because I have a family of six, it is very difficult for me to cook healthy. All of the kids like pizza and burgers and my husband would like to eat out every day.
I saw Almased in a magazine at my hair salon and kept thinking about it. Everything else I tried didn't seem to work or made me feel bad as I have a tendency to have migraine headaches. After reading about Almased, I did a little research and decided to give it a try. That day, I went to Walgreens and bought one can. I started with drinking shakes in place of meals the next morning.
For 7 days I fasted with Almased and did not get one migraine. After 2 weeks, I had lost almost 10 pounds. I feel great! I sleep amazingly; I have a lot of energy and I am not hungry at all. I love this product and I can see the results.
The Almased website has been a great help. I like trying different flavors of shakes all the time and often add chia or flax seeds. Now that I am able to eat meals, I am looking at recipes. They all look wonderful. I have lost a total of 12 pounds now. I replace one meal a day and I am still having results.
My husband has been very supportive. My friends and even clients at work are noticing and commenting on my results. I am wearing clothes that I haven't been able to wear in years. I will be going to Europe in 2 months and will continue using Almased and working out so that I can look and feel my best while I am there. I am very happy with Almased.
Give Almased a try! You can find Almased at Walgreens, CVS, Amazon, GNC and Swanson Health. To speak with a representative about how Almased can fit into your lifestyle, call toll-free 1-877-256-2733.

Spotlight: California jumps into China's Belt and Road Initiative for clean energy
Source: Xinhua| 2017-06-08 18:51:02|Editor: Zhang Dongmiao
by Peter Mertz
LOS ANGELES, June 7 (Xinhua) -- Some might think a trillion-U.S.-dollar super highway connecting Europe and Asia has little to do with California, but Governor Jerry Brown pointed out they would be wrong.
In the trillion dollar clean energy field, the America's most populous state hopes to bolster climate partnerships with China, making joint efforts to push green and low-carbon development.
Local experts said it was the reason why California welcomed the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which proposed forever linking 70 percent of the world's population and the gigantic markets of Asia and Europe.
On Wednesday, Brown delivered a keynote speech at a clean energy forum in Beijing to hundreds of global energy ministers.
Brown leads a state of almost 40 million people with a GDP greater than France, and has been a clean energy champion since he first became California governor in 1975.
Chinese President Xi Jinping met Brown in Beijing on Tuesday and called on California to play a bigger role in promoting bilateral exchanges and cooperation between China and the United States in areas including technology, innovation and green development.
It is agreed that "infrastructure development, trade and transportation, almost everything, will be enhanced by clean energy," said Washington political analysts David Richardson.
"California does it better than any other state in the United States," Richardson told Xinhua Wednesday.
"Governor Brown's current trip to China underscores the tremendous value California puts on this vastly important economic policy," Margaret Wong, CEO of the California Center said of the Belt and Road Initiative in a statement Wednesday.
Wong, based in Sacramento, has been spearheading trade efforts with China for 30 years, and was in 2014 one of the 25 business leaders on the president's official China trade mission led by the U.S. Department of Commerce.
She sees the BRI "forging trade and utilizing the opportunity to make lasting and meaningful reductions in global emissions and increasing clean energy/technology solutions."
With China accelerating development of manufacturing hubs in the western part of the country, the BRI has the potential to create an economic corridor and promote stability and energy security, while opening up trade, said the Brussels-based think tank Friends of Europe.
"If we don't seize exports opportunities where they exist, the jobs will go to others, not Americans," former U.S. Assistant Defense Secretary Chas Freeman told NBC News Tuesday.
Freeman highlighted that 60 countries involved in the BRI boast about 55 percent of global economic output and an estimated 75 percent of known energy reserves.
On Tuesday, the California governor visited Chengdu in Sichuan Province, China's gateway to the "Silk Road," where he again voiced his support of California's involvement in the BRI.
"A prominent and strategic focus of China's economic plan that focuses on connectivity and cooperation -- there is no better location than Chengdu for seeing first-hand the level of dedicated cooperation occurring between our two countries," Wong said.
"We are so excited the governor made this stop a priority," said Wong, whose California Center hosted the business event.
California Center has been a valuable resource and advocate for many clean technology efforts in China and helped to launch the U.S. Smart Cities Alliance focused on smart energy solutions between the United States and China.
"The possibilities are endless for U.S. industries to build a presence in China markets thanks to the Silk Road," said Gordon Hinkle, Senior VP of global operations for the California Center, which was set up according to the initiative of Brown.
One of California Center's projects is working with government officials in Changsha, China's Hunan province, to design a "Smart City" that includes "Smart Street Lamps," according to Hinkle.
"These streetlamps not only cast light, but also collect data on climate, air quality, information that makes running a city more efficiently, has sensors to detect floods, and can also help emergency responders," Hinkle told Xinhua.

Alessandro Sarritzu, also known as HitsuSan, professional Concept Artist.
Adam Duff is a concept artist, 3D artist and character designer based in Montreal, Canada.
"Don't just try to copy your idols or what everyone is doing in the industry, but develop a personal connection with your pictures".
"Just remember to enjoy what your doing and also one more thing, keep those old artworks of yours. The best one or not, keep it cause someday you'll look at them and then you'll see how far you've improved with your skills".
My most of the inspiration comes from the movies. I always like to model my own concepts, and whenever I create my own characters I try to put some story behind the character. I enjoy that process where I get freedom to use my imagination.

Employment Hiring Recruitment
Employment Hiring Recruitment Law and Legal Definition
Employers must give careful consideration to the questions used in an employment application. A number of problem areas have arisen concerning questions which are included in an employment application or asked during the course of a job interview. There is no specific prohibition of drug-testing under federal law although several states have imposed certain restrictions on the use of drug tests.
All employers are required to complete a Immigration and Naturalization Form I-9 for each new employee. This form verifies that the employer has checked documents which show a person's right to work in the U.S. The hiring of an unauthorized alien can subject an employer to fines and imprisonment.
Although an employer may not discriminate based upon gender, Title VII does not prevent discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. However, some states and cities have laws which prohibit discrimination in employment on the basis of sexual orientation.
There are a number of things an employer is prohibited from asking the applicant. These include:
Age/date of birth: Generally, age is considered not to be relevant in most hiring decisions, and therefore, date of birth questions are improper. The Age Discrimination in Employment Act protects employees 40 years old and above. It is permissible to ask an applicant to state his or her age if it is less than 18. Internal uses of date of birth for computations with respect to a pension or profit-sharing plan, this information can be obtained after the person is hired.
Race, religion, national origin: These questions are generally inappropriate, either on employment applications or during job interviews. Ordinarily, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 requires that employers make reasonable accommodations for their employees' religious practices, thus eliminating the necessity for asking whether an applicant's religious beliefs would prohibit his or her working at certain times and on certain days in most situations.
Physical traits, disabilities: If questions are asked related to height and weight requirements such requirements should be directly related to job performance .The Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits general inquiries about disabilities, health problems, and medical conditions.
Union membership: It is not proper for a prospective employer to ask the applicant whether or not if they are a member of a union.
Arrest, conviction records: The EEOC takes the position that questions concerning arrests are improper unless the applicant is being considered for a "security sensitive" job and the employer does an investigation to determine, in effect, whether the applicant was likely to have committed the crime for which he or she was arrested. The EEOC also says that questions about an applicant's conviction record are improper unless the employer can show that the conviction is in some way related to the position being applied for. The EEOC takes these positions because of statistics which show that minorities are arrested and convicted at considerably higher rates than whites.
Garnishment: Questions concerning whether an applicant has been the subject of garnishment proceedings should be eliminated from employment applications. Using the garnishment history of an applicant in determining whether he or she will be hired is probably discriminatory, because more minority members have their wages garnished than do with whites.
Citizenship: The anti-discrimination provision of the Immigration Reform and Control Act provides that an employer cannot discriminate because an applicant is not a U.S. citizen. Therefore, citizenship questions should probably be deleted from employment applications. The Form I-9 is the appropriate place to determine citizenship status instead of the employment application.
Drugs, smoking: It is permissible to ask an applicant if he or she uses drugs or smokes. The application also affords an employer the opportunity to obtain the applicant's agreement to be bound by the employer's drug and smoking policies. The application also affords an employer an opportunity to obtain the applicant's agreement to submit to drug testing.
Other problem areas: Questions concerning whether an applicant has friends or relatives working for the employer may be improper, if the employer gives a preference to such applicants. Questions concerning credit rating or credit references have been held to be discriminatory against minorities and women. Questions concerning whether an applicant owns a home have been held to be improper as being discriminatory against minority members, since a greater number of minority members do not own their own homes.

Have you ever designed a flyer or a brochure to publicize SMART Recovery meetings in your community? Or perhaps you have made a handout based on one of the tools for use in your meetings? If so, that's great and you are welcome to continue to do so! However, if you found that your creation has been especially useful to increase awareness of the SMART Recovery program, or in helping your meeting participants to grasp a specific tool, then perhaps you might like to share your creation with a wider audience. We would love to have you send a copy of the material to the Materials Review Committee for our review and potential widespread distribution.
The Committee, composed of volunteers from throughout various areas of the SMART organization, requests that you complete and submit the following form, and send an email to christif@smartrecovery.org with a copy of the material you are submitting attached.
Please note that the questions contained within the form are not meant to be prohibitive. Rather, they point out the specific criteria the Materials Review Committee is looking for and at during their review of submitted materials. It also helps us determine where YOU foresee the best use of your material and how to best share the material with the intended audience(s). We are especially interested in finding unique materials that will fill any missing gaps in the current offerings of SMART Recovery.
If you are interested in being a part of the Materials Review Committee, we are seeking volunteers. Please contact Christi at christif@smartrecovery.org for additional information.
Thanks for all you do for SMART Recovery!
