Apple removes app that promoted secret parties in the middle of a pandemic
If there's one rule that health experts and authorities have been trying to promote with utmost urgency, it's that 'gatherings are bad in a pandemic.' But just like people who follow an anti-vaccine stance, there are also deniers who refuse to abide by the rules such as wearing masks and avoiding group meets. Not too surprisingly, a networking app was also built to promote secret parties in the midst of an ongoing pandemic. Named Vybe Together, the app has now been pulled from App Store for violating policies, and the TikTok account that was used to promote these underground parties has also been removed.
Get your rebel on. Get your party on
As per a BusinessInsider report, TikTok removed a video that showed people without masks partying indoors and had around 11,000 views. The TikTok account, whose activities were spotted by New York Times journalist Taylor Lorenz and later shared on Twitter, showed it promoting underground gatherings in New York City. As per the Vybe website, one had to first apply for attending such an underground party, and if they are approved by the host, the venue of the risky gathering would be shared two hours before the party started.

— Taylor Lorenz (@TaylorLorenz) December 29, 2020
The motto of the Vybe platform? "Get your rebel on. Get your party on." As for the Vybe Together app, it was reportedly listed on the App Store around four months ago, and was pulled down following an inquiry by BusinessInsider. However, Vybe Together CEO Alexandar Dimcevski has claimed the platform never hosted any large gathering and that the TikTok video in question was an "over-the-top marketing video." Notably, Dimcevski appears to have taken down his LinkedIn profile, and the website has been pulled down too. You can view an archived version of the Vybe Together website here.
"Vybe's can be anything from playing board games to bachata with your neighbors. A lot of people have been isolated and lonely and we wanted to enable them to meet. We are aware that large gatherings are not okay and we do not promote them. If we see events are popular we take them off," a Vybe spokesperson was quoted as saying by BusinessInsider.
Notably, the platform itself acknowledged that large gatherings are a major health risk, which is why it only facilitates small gatherings. Irrespective of what the company says, bringing together a bunch of random strangers is a clear violation of health guidelines and a ticking COVID-19 infection bomb waiting to explode.

Summer is here, and many people are looking forward to a few months of fun with their kids. As a small business owner, it is easy to let some of the business management tasks slide because you are distracted with activities outside of work.
Even though it is common for some industries to experience a decrease in business during the summer months, it doesn't mean that you can get lazy with your bookkeeping or other activities. On the other hand, some small businesses cater to summer activities, which means that things get busy during this time of year. Either way, you need to consider the unique needs of your company and the things that you can do to ensure long-term success.
It can be a trick if you are understaffed because all of your employees take a vacation at the same time. Consider putting together a summer schedule in advance to work around the anticipated vacation schedules of your employees.
This schedule will allow your staff to be on the same page so that you can have all of the tasks and activities covered throughout the summer months. If someone is going to be out of town, then you can plan ahead by cross-training other employees to handle the details during the break.
Having a time-off policy and request format will simplify your ability to plan a schedule that will keep the business running. Also, you can plan ahead if you are leaving for vacation so that the staff is prepared to handle the day-to-day management in your absence.
For businesses that have an increase in sales during the summer months, it might make sense to hire seasonal employees. An increase in business for a few months doesn't often merit hiring a bunch of full-time employees. Instead, consider working with a temporary hiring agency or looking for options to bring on freelance contractors for a time.
Just make sure that you are working with your accountant to coordinate payments. A contractor will be paid in a different way than a full-time employee. Taxes and withholdings are handled uniquely, and your accounting team can ensure that you are doing the right thing.
An accountant can also help you distinguish between the tasks of an employee and contractor. Some business owners want to hire contractors so that they can avoid paying benefits and other overhead costs. But, if the workflow and requirements match the legal guidelines for an employee, then you need to make sure that you are complying with the right payment methods. An experienced accountant can help you compare the options so that you can bring in the best talent and maximize your spending at the same time.
If you are planning to take some time off with your family, consider the benefits of implementing an online accounting system before you leave. These programs make it easy for you to stay up-to-date with the numbers so that you can see what is going on while you are away. Don't get stuck in the old paper filing methods now that we live in a digital world!
Implementing an online system is one of the best things that you can do to streamline your business finances. It is easy to run reports and get a feel for the profitability of the year. Your accountant can make recommendations about the software program that match the needs of your company.
Another thing to consider is the benefit of hiring an accounting team if you don't already have these services in place. Hiring an accounting means that you can take off with the family for a fun vacation, without worrying about the financial details back in the office.
Are things slowing down during the summer months, but you want to keep the income flowing? Then right now might be a great time to run a promotion or new marketing campaign. Just because things often slow down during this time of year, doesn't mean that your business needs to take a hit. The right marketing campaign can bring more people through the door, helping to boost the bottom line.
Look for ways that you can add some summer fun to your promotions. For example, you might have a BBQ in the parking lot or pass out popsicles on the day of a big sale. These things might seem small, but they can offer a great way to generate goodwill with current and potential customers.
One of the biggest concerns that small businesses have during this time of year is the decline in productivity among employees. When people are away from the office and the workload goes down, it is tempting to spend more time around the water cooler. As a result, your business will suffer even if you are fully staffed.
Consider steps that can be implemented to boost employee morale and encourage productivity. The summer season could be a good time of year to implement a fun competition or contest that offers extra rewards for performance.
Also, look for ways that you can help employees recharge during their breaks so that they are refreshed and ready to get back to work. A comfortable break room or outdoor area can be a nice way to provide a positive work environment.
Do you get caught in the trap of ignoring your bookkeeping until it is time to file tax paperwork? Too often, small business owners get stressed because they are trying to crunch the numbers during a busy time of the year.
If you have extra time available during the summer months, then it can be a great opportunity to get caught up on the busy work that has been neglected. Sort through the paperwork, finish up data entry, and talk to your accountant to see if there is anything else that needs to be addressed. When things are slower, it is the perfect time to implement a new program if you want to make changes.
Just because you are taking time off for vacation, doesn't mean that you can neglect important tax payments and paperwork. For example, June 15th is coming up, which means that many people need to drop a check in the mail for their 2nd estimated tax payment in 2017. Missing this deadline could result in late fees and interest costs, increasing the amount that you need to pay in the future. Your accountant can help you determine if you are required to make these estimated payments throughout the year.
It is also essential to stay up-to-date with payroll and withholdings. You might be away from the office, but your employees will still need to be paid! Hiring a payroll service will give you the ability to go out of town without leaving your staff without a paycheck. These services offer a great way to stay ahead of ongoing withholdings and payments that need to be made throughout the year.
Whenever you have an expense that can be used as a deduction on your taxes, make sure that you are keeping the receipts and documentation. Uncommon expenses might pop up during the summer, such as a company BBQ or other perks that you offer to employees or customers. These costs can be considered in your tax preparation, but you can't claim the deductions if you don't have documentation for the transactions.
So, it can be a good idea to gather the receipts and file them for the future. A good filing system will ensure that you can find the documentation if it is needed for any reason.
There is no doubt that an experienced accountant can help you maximize your profits and improve future results for your company. Small business owners often follow a do-it-yourself approach to these tasks. So, stress levels can go up if you are trying to manage everything on your own. There is no reason that you need to carry the burden without the support of an experienced team, and right now might be the perfect opportunity to explore your options.
Bringing in an accountant can help you analyze your profit and loss reports so that you can look for ways to boost your cash flow. At the same time, consider the areas where you can cut unneeded expenses that are running up your overhead costs.

Priscilla: Then & Now
"The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert" is one of the most deliriously funny, inventive and heartwarming movies Australia has ever produced — but since it came out in 1994, I don't think anyone anticipated its revival as a 2011 Broadway musical.
But thank goodness Bette Midler brought the production over from London because it's every bit as infectiously exuberant as its cinematic grand-drag-mother. Nick Adams does a phenomenal job of stepping into the big, um, shoes Guy Pearce left behind as Adam/Felicia and after catching a performance I rang him up to find out if the cast is having as much fun on stage as I was in the audience.
PopWrap: Does the audience turn into a dance party every night, or did I have a special crowd?
Nick Adams: [laughs] I think it's the gayest time you can have on Broadway. It's the gayest time in the best of ways. I've never had more fun in my life – not just on stage, but with the cast and crew. I hope the show runs forever and I can be 40-year-old playing Adam because I don't think I'll ever get to do s*** like this in another musical.
PW: And those costumes are epic.
Nick: Oh, the costumes are incredible. I've never seen anything like it. I think the first time I put on the silver second skin I wear while up on the shoe, I was in a little studio fitting early in the morning — the sun just hit it and illuminated the entire room. I started crying. I knew it would be so sick on stage. That's when it hit me that I was going to really be doing this show.
PW: Were you a fan of the movie?
Nick: I had never seen the film until I heard it was going to be a musical in New York. I'd obviously heard of it and seen "To Wong Foo," which is sort of like a loosely American-ized version. So I bought it and the minute I finished watching the movie, I thought "that has to be my part." If there's any show I was born to do, I think this is it. I just had a feeling this would be the role to take me out of the ensemble – thank god it worked out.
PW: What have you learned going from ensemble to lead?
Nick: It's interesting because it's the most responsibility I've had in a show before, but I have the least amount of anxiety with this. Which is weird because I thought it would be the complete opposite. I thought more of me in the spotlight would makes my crazy nervous pre-show energy worse, but it seems more time in the spotlight is the cure for stage fright [laughs].
PW: Do you have a favorite moment?
Nick: I think my entrance is pretty kick-ass – lowered in on a giant dollar sign. You can't beat that. Maybe that can be the Nick Adams entrance, like Velma in "Chicago" coming out of the elevator [laughs]. It's so thrilling because the audience goes wild when I come down. I also love doing "Like A Prayer" at the end – to be on the Palace stage by myself doing the 11 o'clock number is a dream. It's mind-blowing every night.

Read more from Jonathan
Written by Jonathan Smith. Published on May 20th 2014.
MORRISSEY once said: "Artists aren't really people. I'm actually 40 percent papier-mâché."
While not entirely true (being more like 40 percent quiff), it could be applied literally to the late eccentric, cult entertainer Frank Sidebottom.
There's a niggling concern that once you take away the papier-mâché head there's little about Frank that relates back to Sievey
The alter ego of comedian and musician Chris Sievey, Frank Sidebottom emerged in the mid-80s as an aspiring pop star with a nasally Mancunian accent who rarely removed himself from his humble beginnings; He still lived with his mum, roamed the streets of Timperley and supported Altrincham FC.
A jack of all trades, Sidebottom made his name on radio, television with his Fantastic Shed Show and musically with his Oh Blimey Big Band before falling into obscurity in the noughties.
His surreal brand of haphazard entertainment enjoyed a renaissance before Sievey's untimely passing in 2010.
Starring a protagonist with a papier-mâché head who plays bizarre, divisive music and co-written by former Sidebottom bandmate Jon Ronson, Frank would appear to be the definitive story of the Mercurial genius-come-lunatic, except that this is not about Frank Sidebottom or Chris Sievey.
Instead the film's Frank, played by Hollywood star Michael Fassbender, is an American musician who, unlike Sievey, never takes off his unnervingly large papier-mâché head, and being from Bluff, Kansas, has no connection with Timperley.
In an unsubtle nod to Jon Ronson, Jon played by Domhnall Gleeson, a flailing musician trapped in a nine-to-five job in a seaside town (that they forgot to close down) is offered the opportunity of a lifetime when unpronounceable band Soronprfbs stroll into town in search of a new keyboard player.
(Click here to add text)
The timid youngster unknowingly walks into the mad world of Frank, the band's perplexing lead man, and his terrifying sidekick Clara. They set about helping to record the greatest album ever along with exposing Frank's genius to the wider world.
As Jon's musical potential awakens (Frank orders him to squawk like a bird during rehearsals), so does his awareness of the band's underlying mental health issues.
It's like some bizarre parallel universe offering of what Frank Sidebottom could have been: a misunderstood musical prodigy instead of the tongue-in-cheek novelty of his Timperley-based self. Rather than a biographical account, this Frank is merely influenced by the original.
This is ultimately Frank's downfall, the film is straddling two narratives: a wholly new American one forged out of Jon Ronson's script and Sievey's original invention.
It means the film ends up being neither here nor there.
This failure to find its tone or narrative direction permeates all areas of the film. There are conflicts between a serious commentary on mental illness, epitomised by Frank and his unwavering need to keep on the papier-mâché head, and a comedy of absurdities.
The first half of the film takes a light-hearted tone as Jon takes the bold step of abandoning his safe home reality in search of fortune and fame, albeit via the unconventional and bizarre sound of Frank's band. The laughs are more sniggers than belly laughs, nevertheless, it's enjoyable, wacky fun.
The latter section takes a much darker twist, but among all the comedy the stark, grim nature of mental illness feels out of place. It's hard to feel for Frank's emotional wellbeing when he's a constant source of entertainment throughout. It's an attempt at depth and emotional weight, but one that falls flat.
There's a niggling concern that once you take away the papier-mâché head there's little about Frank that relates back to Sievey. Modern applications of Twitter and trendy music festival South by Southwest along with the use of Jon Ronson feels like an exploitation of Sidebottom's name, not an appropriate tribute or examination.
The endearingly grounded nature of Sidebottom, the fact he never was a household name beyond the north west of England, let alone ther rest of the world, has been lost in Frank.
The whimsical, English eccentricities of Sidebottom have been replaced by a fine, enjoyable movie that fails to offer serious drama or insight into Sievey's character, or the man behind the mask. Frank never promised to be about Sidebottom, but it promises little else either as a result.
Alternatively, aiming for a summer release is documentary Being Frank, an interview-heavy, fan-funded and thorough insight into Chris Sievey's life. For those intrigued about the man and the legend this is likely to fulfil your needs far better than Frank.

THE MARKET for initial coin offerings (ICO) incorporating peer-to-peer lending has remained vibrant despite wider volatility among cryptocurrencies.
Digital currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum suffered from price falls in January but many firms are still seeing the benefits of creating their own cryptocurrency to use for P2P lending. One provider, SOFIN, is currently looking to raise up to $1m (£720,000) to create a token that can be used as a tool to bypass high exchange rates so loans can be funded internationally.
Instead of having to pay exchange rates for converting from one currency to another, up to 20 per cent of a loan would be funded by the token which the borrower could convert into their local currency. The platform plans to increase this capability to the full loan eventually.
It marks a busy time for P2P ICO launches. Stephen Findlay, chief executive of P2P investor BondMason, is working with global cryptocurrency expert and University of Cambridge Research Fellow Dr Garrick Hileman on ARC Reserve Currency, a cryptocoin aiming to provide a digital currency for those living in areas with high inflation or under-developed banking systems.
Another offering, FintruX, is looking to raise a minimum of 5,000 ETH (Ethereum) in return for tradeable FTX tokens as part of an international unsecured loans platform.
Meanwhile, cryptobacked P2P lending platform ETHlend, which had a successful ICO at the end of last year, has partnered with technology provider Enigma to help record and store transactions more securely.

Rock Hall of Fame: Pearl Jam, Tupac Shakur, Yes Lead Nominees
The nominations for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's Class of 2017 are in, and the list includes Pearl Jam, Tupac Shakur, Depeche Mode, Electric Light Orchestra, Jane's Addiction, Janet Jackson, Journey, the Cars, the Zombies and Yes. The rest of this year's hopefuls are Bad Brains, Chaka Khan, Chic, J. Geils Band, Joan Baez, Joe Tex,Kraftwerk, MC5 and Steppenwolf. The top vote-getters will be announced in December and inducted next April at a ceremony at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. HBO will broadcast the ceremony later in the year.
For the fifth consecutive year, the public will have the opportunity to vote alongside the more than 800 artists, historians and music industry insiders of the Rock Hall voting body. From now until December 6th, fans can vote on RollingStone.com for the nominees they'd like to see inducted. The top five acts will comprise a "fan's ballot" that will count as one of the ballots that determine the class of 2016. Voting is available below.
To be eligible for this year's ballot, each nominee's first single or album had to be released in 1991 or earlier. Some of the nominees have appeared on previous ballots, but this is the first appearance for Bad Brains, Depeche Mode, Electric Light Orchestra, Jane's Addiction, Joan Baez, Journey, Pearl Jam, Steppenwolf, and Tupac Shakur. It's Pearl Jam and Shakur's first year of eligibility, while Chic earned a Hall of Fame record with 11 ballot appearances. It's the fifth for Joe Tex, the fourth for the J. Geils Bands and Kraftwerk and the third for Yes.
In a change of tradition, the Hall of Fame has announced the individual members of each band that will be honored. Pearl Jam have had five drummers, but only current drummer Matt Cameron and founding member Dave Krusen will be inducted should they make it in. Electric Light Orchestra has had many musicians come and go over the years, but just Jeff Lynne, Roy Wood, Bev Bevan and Richard Tandy made the cut. The classic Steve Perry lineup of Journey is listed along with founding keyboardist/singer Gregg Rolie. As far as Yes, original singer Jon Anderson is on the ballot along with drummers Bill Bruford and Alan White, keyboardists Tony Kaye and Rick Wakeman, guitarists Steve Howe and Trevor Rabin and bassist Chris Squire. Keyboardist Vince Clarke left Depeche Mode after their first album Speak & Spell, but he is listed along with the rest of the band.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is often the one place where estranged bands reunite for a single evening. The most notable potential reunions possible from this class include Journey with Steve Perry, Yes with Anderson, Bruford, Rabin, Kaye and Wakeman, ELO with Bevan and Wood, the 1970s lineup of Kraftwerk, Jane's Addiction with original bassist Eric Avery, J. Geils Band with guitarist John Geils and drummer Stephen Jo Bladd and Depeche Mode with Clarke and keyboardist Alan Wilder.
Last year's Hall of Fame class included N.W.A, Steve Miller, Cheap Trick, Chicago and Deep Purple.

You are currently browsing the Collector Model blog archives for November, 2014.
We announced that we would be bringing out a new Polar Lights model kit of the STAR TREK: TOS Romulan Bird-of-Prey back at Wonderfest in May. We've shown around some of the preliminary 3D work, but we recently received the mockup of the kit. here is a first look.
Some may have noted that we showed an earlier version at iHobby in October. In many ways it was not up to our expectations, but this version is about ready to go. Some may be disappointed that we were not able to reproduce the saucer front/side windows due to tooling restrictions. I'm sure enterprising modelers will find a way to introduce that detail back into the model. Overall, the kit looks great though.
3D work was done once again by Angelo Bastianelli based on reference by Gary Kerr and Petri Blomqvist. Petri is a lifelong fan of this particular ship and the shape and proportions were painstakingly determined by building his wireframe over screen caps of the original filming miniature.

Q: Month End Data for SSRS Report I am attempting to build an SSRS report that calls data from a shared data source. I need to build a table with several fields:
Loan No, Borrower Name, Balance Today, Balance Month End
I have created two data sources that are redundant; one for the date the report is ran (Balance today) and one to get the data from a date in the past (Balance Month End).
In Python I am able to set a variable based upon an elif to get the previous month end (cant be a holiday or a weekend) using this logic:
import datetime

today = datetime.date(2018, 6, 19)
monthend = datetime.date(2018, 12, 14)

if today >= datetime.date(2018, 6, 1) and today < datetime.date(2018, 6, 30):
    monthend = datetime.date(2018, 5, 31)
    print(monthend)
elif today >= datetime.date(2018, 7, 1) and today < datetime.date(2018, 7, 31):
    monthend = datetime.date(2018, 6, 29)
    print(monthend)
elif today >= datetime.date(2018, 8, 1) and today < datetime.date(2018, 8, 31):
    monthend = datetime.date(2018, 7, 31)
    print(monthend)
elif today >= datetime.date(2018, 9, 1) and today < datetime.date(2018, 9, 30):
    monthend = datetime.date(2018, 8, 31)
    print(monthend)
elif today >= datetime.date(2018, 10, 1) and today < datetime.date(2018,
                           10, 31):
    monthend = datetime.date(2018, 9, 28)
    print(monthend)
elif today >= datetime.date(2018, 11, 1) and today < datetime.date(2018,
                           11, 30):
    monthend = datetime.date(2018, 10, 31)
    print(monthend)
elif today >= datetime.date(2018, 12, 1) and today < datetime.date(2018,
                           12, 31):
    monthend = datetime.date(2018, 11, 30)
    print(monthend)
elif today >= datetime.date(2019, 1, 1) and today < datetime.date(2019,
                           1, 31):
    monthend = datetime.date(2018, 12, 31)
    print(monthend)

How would I write this logic either on the report side or db side to get the previous month end date parameter?
Thanks

A: This will also work:
DECLARE @today DATETIME = CONVERT(CHAR(8), GETDATE(), 112)
SELECT DATEADD(DAY, - DAY(@Today), @Today) [Last Day of Last Month]

DOI: 10.4103/pr.pr_44_17
Background: Hepatotoxicity ultimately leads to liver failure. Conventional treatment options for hepatotoxicity are limited and not safe. Objective: Formulation AHPL/AYTAB/0613 is developed to provide safer and effective hepatoprotective drug of natural origin. A study was conducted to evaluate hepatoprotective activity of AHPL/AYTAB/0613 (three dosages) in comparison with marketed formulations in carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), ethanol, and paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity in Wistar albino rats. Materials and Methods: Three separate studies were conducted in models of CCl4, ethanol, and paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity. Seven groups of animals were studied comparatively to evaluate the efficacy of AHPL/AYTAB/0613 in low, medium, and high dosage in comparison with silymarin and a marketed polyherbal formulation. The drugs were orally administered to rats for 10 days in CCl4 model and for 14 days in ethanol and paracetamol models. Animals were weighed periodically. After the study period, blood was tested for serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT), serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bilirubin, and total protein levels. Liver tissue of sacrificed animals was examined histopathologically. Results: All the test formulations including all three dosages of AHPL/AYTAB/0613, significantly reduced levels of SGOT, SGPT, ALP, total bilirubin, in CCl4, ethanol, and paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity models. There was significant increase in total protein level in all the tested formulations. All the test formulations effectively preserved the structural integrity of the hepatocellular membrane and liver cell architecture damaged by CCl4, ethanol, and paracetamol. When compared between groups, no statistically significant difference was observed. It can be concluded that AHPL/AYTAB/0613 possesses hepatoprotective activity in CCl4, ethanol, and paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Conclusion: AHPL/AYTAB/0613 can be effectively used as a hepatoprotective agent in the management of hepatitis caused due to various toxins.

Keeping research code accessible and relevant
Jordan Gerth | October 13, 2015
It is an all too common occurrence these days. Code that someone wrote years ago stops working and results in a cascading set of downstream failures, or, possibly worse, old data ends up downstream and no one immediately notices. I remember this happening to a colleague who maintains a numerical weather prediction model for research purposes. As spring wore on, it seemed that the overnight low temperatures were consistently too cool over the northern United States. Then it became June and model-forecasted lows were still tumbling into the 30s every night. It was only then that he dug into the code and realized the problem: the snow cover analysis was from the middle of winter. Oops.
He tracked down the offending lines of code that did not properly check the date of the analysis and then remarked how the old Fortran code provided great "job security" because it had become so complex and unwieldy to maintain that it would take someone else eons to detect and fix issues. That may be so, but that does not make it desirable, especially for the organization, because it is a single point of failure. Eventually, the lack of reliability will cause others to abandon the resulting products in place of something new.
Academics sometimes have a challenge sharing and collaborating on their research efforts, or they do not have funding to bring another person onboard for a task they are passionate about. Some do not know how to delegate, feel that they need to be closely involved with all portions of the research, are concerned that successive research ideas may be poached, or are uncomfortable sharing credit. Others are "hot in pursuit" and do not want to make the effort to add team members that may not understand the project immediately, and temporarily slow down the research process as they learn. Regardless of the reason, this poses a challenge to R2O efforts.
Promoting a sharing culture in a research organization is the first major recommendation for establishing efficient R2O processes. If there is an existing code base that can serve as a platform for a startup research effort or R2O exercise, all parties benefit from its use and availability. The adopted code is no longer under the ownership of a single person or small team, and the value of the code increases from the expanded set of users as part of the new project. The new project is able to start at an accelerated pace because the team does not have to "reinvent the wheel". It is a serious mistake to allow individual researchers or small teams to maintain "proprietary" code because it stymies code longevity and does not enable a natural evolution and expansion of the underlying effort that would keep it relevant. Those who leverage the code of others should make sure to acknowledge the contribution at the appropriate time.
Other recommendations are as follows.
Encourage the use of version control. Using a recognized code management system and/or version control software, keeping a good record of what code is changing, and who is changing it is essential for maintaining a systematic procedure when there are multiple developers in an organization. When developing code, whether adding new methods, or modifying existing ones, it is important to understand how existing, surrounding code works, its dependencies, and its role in the overall code base before making any changes, no matter if the changes are copied to a new tree or not.
Make incremental code improvements. Sometimes code does need to be rewritten, and during rapid prototyping, this may be necessary more than once. Reject poor coding practices and do not make logic more complex than required. The short-term time saving of leaving legacy code can result in major time sinks later during troubleshooting. Rewriting code may mean implementing new control loops and decision structures to decrease the execution time. Code may even need to be redeveloped in a different programming language to realize certain performance benefits, or expand the number of supported platforms or user groups.
Phase out old code. It is necessary to keep an eye out for code that is running on old hardware without routine maintenance, or there is no obvious owner and/or user. There should be a transition plan for that code to become incorporated into a maintained code base, or simply phased out. Research organizations should keep a record of end users who receive real-time research products, regardless of whether they are internal or external. To ensure the list is accurate, it will require following up with those users annually. It also is a great opportunity to have a discussion about new research products that are in line for transition as part of evolving R2O activities, or allow for another iteration of the existing R2O cycle for that product.

My mam and dad used to play bingo a lot. Not at these big places, like Mecca, but at clubs in the nearby villages. Sometimes they won, sometimes they didn't, but for them it was a night out. A chance to meet up with friends, have a few beers. I was never a big fan, I hate not winning. One the few occasions I tried my hand at it, and that was at Mecca, I always came away disappointed. So I never went back. If I ain't going to win I'm not going to play. I always found Mecca quite soulless. There was never that friendly atmosphere that you'd get at the small clubs. You didn't really feel part of the crowd. I didn't discover that friendliness until I attended a bingo and quiz night at the Navy Club in Blackhall. For me it was a baptism of fire. Not only was I part of the crowd but I had to approach people to make sure they were happy at me taking their photos. There were some familiar faces there which made it a little easier. I worked my way round the room making sure I didn't miss anyone out. And for someone who hates approaching people it was amazing. Everyone was happy to have their photo taken, and they were all interested in what I was doing. I had a secret weapon of course. It helped massively that I lived in the next village and that my family came from Blackhall. Alot of people I spoke to actually knew my dad or the family and regaled me with tales from the old days. It might sound sentimental but I felt like I was close to my dad that night. I was living and breathing his past. I felt immensely at home and for someone who has never fitted in that's pretty good. I got some decent shots too although I had not taken into account the fact that the room would be so quiet when the bingo was on. Yes, my flashgun gave out a lovely little sound as it fired up again and I was so aware of it. Everyone was concentrating so hard and I was so worried that I was putting them off. I bid my goodbyes later that evening and even attempted to thank everyone over the mike, although it came out more as a mumble and half the people didn't hear me. Still I got a round of applause. My confidence is growing!

Q: Quick Fix option for specific lint rule in a specific file in Android Studio IDE has been disabled, how to re-enable In the Android Studio IDE, I somehow managed to disable a QuickFix for only one of my .dart files.

Use interpolation to compose strings and values.

In this specific file, it displays as follows:

In all the other files in the project, it works properly, and does not display greyed out.

I have hundreds of interpolation errors to fix in that file, and doing it manually is just going to take too long.
All the other lints work as expected in that specific file, just this one is not. I cannot find a setting for the file, and there are no lint rule overrides for this file in the code.

Easy to do chocolate munchkin balls or graham ball using crushed biscuits. Simple desserts that you can teach your kids to do too. Its like their very first learned recipe.
Do take note of the ingredient, you need to crushed a chocolate flavored graham crackers or any brand of chocolate biscuit. Not the regular honey flavored graham biscuits.
Aside from the coconut, you can also use different colorful sprinkles in different shapes and colors. You can buy it in baking stores. Or you can dip each balls into melted chocolate!
Just melt some chocolate in the microwave with 1 tbsp oil. If there is no microwave, you can use a double broiler method of melting the chocolate. Quickly melt the chocolate and stir in some little oil and turn off the heat right away. You can start dipping the munchkins into the melted chocolate.
1. In a mixing bowl, put the crushed grahams and gradually add condensed milk. Mix well until evenly combined.
2. Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.
3. Shape them into balls, then roll the chocolate balls over the desiccated coconut.
4. Refrigerate again for 15-30 minutes, then serve.
5. Share & happy eating!

Q: Laravel 5.4 how to get Articles related to a Category I'm building a simple shop catalog in Laravel 5.4. Basically, what I want is to have a button on my article that gets all articles with the related categories (noting that an article can have many categories).
I have my Article and Category models, as well as an article_category pivot table. Both have a belong to many relationship to the other, like:
Code in Article model:
public function categories()
{
    return $this->belongsToMany('App\Category');
}

Code on Category model:
public function articles()
{
    return $this->belongsToMany('App\Article');
}

My issue is how to get the list of articles that include all articles with categories related to an article.
This is my function on the controller right now, it receives a JSON object with a list of categories:
public function showRelatedArticles($category)
{
    // Decode JSON to PHP array
    $category = json_decode($category);
    $collection;
    if(is_array($category)){
        foreach ($category as $cat) {
            $articles = Article::whereHas('Category', function ($query) {
                $query->where('category_id', $cat->id);
            })->get();
            $collection = merge($articles);
        }
    } else {
        dd('Not array');
    }

    return view('front', ['articles' => $collection]);
}

This returns an error:

BadMethodCallException
  Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder::Category()

I may have the wrong type of relation between my models, but this is the correct method of declaring a Many to Many relationship, no?

A: You could rewrite the whole part to this:
if (is_array($category)){
    $category_ids = collect($category)->pluck('id');

    $articles = Article::whereHas('categories', function($query) use ($category_ids) {
        // Assuming your category table has a column id
        $query->whereIn('categories.id', $category_ids);
    })->get();
} else {
    dd('Not array');
}

Note the lowercase categories, which is the function name in the Article class.
This combines the in from the queries, the collect for array's and only retrieves the articles which are linked to the given categories.

First ever fight between mega robots...

All right...the bots in your show are human controlled in a similar way as in the movie Real Steel...in this video actual people are inside these 16 feet robots, weighing several tons, to pilot and fire/use their weaponry.
Still, human controlled is fun too. Admittedly, I never heard of such a show until now.
And I do like to think I'm a fan as I have been watching the BBC version of Robot Wars since it appeared. There was also a US version of that show, but that never "engaged" me as much. In the latest season of the BBC series, there was one bot (Apollo) who managed to defeat all its opponents...and all of the house robots (except for 'Sir-Kill-A-Lot', who weighs 750 kilos and bots in the competition are restricted to about 150 kilos).
I'm just saying it's on the same scale. Probably to fit within the constraints of TV, they were not in the bots, and more importantly, not at risk. They built these bots, and had sponsors, and destroyed the other bots. In a lot of cases, if anyone was in the bot, they would have been hurt or killed.

Al-Houthi: France Complicit in Saudi War Crimes in Yemen
حظك وتوقعات الأبراج الخميس 13 يناير 2022
ثغرة في متصفح شهير تهدد خصوصية الملايين في غوغل
A senior member in the Sana'a-based Supreme political council official has lambasted France over its collaboration with Saudi Arabia in the devastating war on Yemen as French President Emmanuel Macron has visited Persian Gulf Arab countries and signed lucrative weapons deals there.
Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, made the criticism in a post on his Twitter account early on Saturday, a day after 18 people were killed and several others injured in Saudi-led coalition's airstrikes on a residential area in Taiz Province, southwestern Yemen.
He made the remarks as Macron, on Friday, started an official two-day tour of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Qatar and Saudi Arabia.
"We condemn the move by the French president, who – through his trip to Saudi Arabia – caused the killing of civilians and children in Maqbana district of Taiz province," al-Houthi said. "We remind him that his requests to European countries to continue selling arms to the aggressor Saudi coalition, in which he also participates, amount to war crimes in Yemen."
The UAE has signed an agreement to purchase 80 Rafale aircraft produced by the French company Dassault Aviation.
France indicated that the value of the Rafale fighter jet and helicopter deal with the UAE is approximately 17 billion Euros.

The young Martin Van Buren, it turns out, was a superb politician. Not a charismatic or socially instinctive soul, he nonetheless had quite a knack for politics – even as a teenager. As he aged, he thrived on the thrill of the chase whether that meant winning a legal argument in the courtroom, using a hidden loophole to his legislative advantage, or simply out-hustling his opponent and winning an election.
Early in his political career he didn't seem to mind swimming upstream, even if that meant disagreeing with his neighbors and friends (sometimes against his better judgment). Later in life he became more malleable – and cautious – and was slower to take sides on the important political issues of the day. In short, he became quite a skillful politician…and a non-committal one when appropriate.
But despite being one of the best politicians of his day the "Little Magician" made quite a mediocre president. He seemed to forget (or ignore) most of what assisted in his political rise and was an uninspired chief executive. To be sure, his presidency was also hurt by the faltering economy he inherited from the Jackson administration and which grew so bad it has been referred to as America's First Great Depression. But he was unable to ease the adversity which pained America and his primary accomplishments in office were largely unseen, or ineffective.
The first of two biographies of this president I read was "Martin Van Buren: The Romantic Age of American Politics" by John Niven. Though incredibly detailed and exceptionally well-researched, this biography falls flat in two areas. First, it focuses too intensively on the intricacies of New York state politics during Van Buren's rise in politics. The topic is relevant but the detail proves overwhelming at times and there is little sense of what is "most important" rather than just "nice to know." I initially attempted to absorb every bit of provided minutiae while waiting for a moment of clarity to arrive…but eventually realized I was on my own.
The second, and final, biography of Van Buren I read was "Martin Van Buren and the American Political System" by Donald Cole. This biography is about one-third shorter than Niven's but seems no less comprehensive. Unfortunately, Van Buren himself is no more exciting a character than in Niven's book; both authors portrayed him as a man who seemed to eat, sleep and breathe nothing but politics.
Coming from Connecticut, the only thing I know about Van Buren is his minor role in the 1841 U.S. Supreme Court case involving the Africans of the Spanish ship, "La Amistad." In that cast of characters–including kidnapped Africans who mutinied aboard their captor's ship and ended up in New England, their Connectican defense lawyer, Roger Sherman Baldwin, and U.S. Representative and former president John Quincy Adams, who argued on their behalf before the U.S. Supreme Court–Van Buren is the "bad guy" who didn't want to upset Spain and who, in case the Court ruled that the Africans were legal slaves (which it didn't), apparently had a ship at the ready to whisk them away before they could appeal the ruling. Interesting how & why these lesser known presidents pop up in one's conscience. Just curious, did the biographies make mention of the "Amistad" case (which was national news at the time)?
They did mention the "Amistad" case but there was a much better description of it in one or more of the John Quincy Adams biographies (I can't remember specifically which ones). I remember being struck in the Van Buren bios about how relatively quickly the incident was passed by compared to the significantly more fulsome accounting of the episode in the JQA bio(s) – but then John Quincy's role was admittedly more central to the case than MB's.
There's also a good (and shorter) book by Joel Silbey, an excellent historian of the period, "Martin Van Buren and the Emergence of American Popular Politics," from about 10 years ago. Silbey is a good narrative story teller (his book on Texas annexation is also great), and this — while thematic — is somewhat less academic than Niven or Cole.
I am presently reading this book in attempt to understand the party genious of Van Buren, which is what this book attempts to overview. I wanted to be able to explain to my students how partisan politics evolved, and this book covers it in spades. It is good for short, summative reads but is incredibly short on a detailed exploration of Vnn Buren's roles in policy… There are limited quotes, limited historical exploration of key events like the Nullification Crisis, Native American Removal, or even the National Bank. Sibley spends as much time discussuing these issues as he does the Eaton Affair, and it is really through the lens of how party politics have evolved. I crave concrete evidence of party evolution, and it is not really here.
For someone who was allegedly such a political machine powerhouse, he has not been studied much. I wanted to read the Cole biography and may still go back to it when I am completed with the journey, but instead went with two other books. The first one was Fox at Bay by James Curtis Campbell which was very short and glossed over his career. The second. Martin Van Buren: Law, Politics, and the Shaping of Republican Ideology by Jerome Mushkat, was not a presidential biography, but reviewed Van Buren's ideological development. The Mushkat book was interesting, but three months after reading it, I barely remember it.
I have been listening to biographies of the presents in audiobook form, and have come to martin Van Buren, but cannot find a biography in audiobook format – anyone know of one?
Dang! I have been listening to Presidential Bios on Audible and am now stymied, no Van Buren, no Harrison, and no Tyler. Since I listen on my daily commute, I am jumping 8 years and 3 Presidents. Bummer. Bring on Polk.
If you can write a compelling biography of MVB, I'm willing to narrate it into an Audible book! Sorry you'll apparently miss a few presidents, but I'm sure you're going to enjoy Polk!
Robert Remini wrote a short bio of Van Buren early in his career, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere. I'm plowing through his Jackson series right now, maybe I'll try and track it down once I'm done.
I didn't realize how uncommon this had gotten in reasonable condition. If you're looking for a reading copy abebooks has a few copies.
If you do a Google search for "Martin Van Buren and the Making of the Democratic Party," you'll see many different Amazon listings come up. The first one takes you to a listing where you can find copies for under $20. Other listings have extremely high prices. Some of these older books get listed like this multiple times on Amazon, and I hope people don't spend much more than they need to on these books simply because they happened to find the more expensive listing.

The three-letter word that rocked a nation
The World in Words
March 27, 2018 · 1:45 PM EDT
By Nina Porzucki
In 2007 Språk Magazine published an article about henthat raised the profile of the word. In 2012, the children's book "Kivi & Monsterhund" was published, sparking a nationwide debate about hen.
Nina Porzucki
In 2012, a little known Swedish press published a children's book that sparked a nationwide debate.
The debate wasn't about the plot of the book or the pictures but concerned a three-letter word used by the main character of the story.
Catch our podcast: The World in Words
Each week on The World in Words, Patrick Cox and Nina Porzucki tell stories about languages and the people who speak them.
That word was the relatively new, gender-neutral pronoun hen.
Traditionally, Swedish does not have gender-neutral pronouns for people. Hen tapped into an ongoing conversation the country was already having about gender and equality.
This week on the podcast, we go to Sweden and examine whether gender-neutral language can help shape-shift societal views on gender equality.
This is the second episode in ongoing series about language and gender in collaboration with Across Women's Lives. You can find more stories about language and gender around the globe here.
Podcast contents
00:01 In 2012, Olika Press, a little-known publishing company in Sweden, put out a children's book called "Kivi & Monsterhund" that sparked a national conversation. The public debate was over the word hen, a gender-neutral pronoun used to refer to the titular character, Kivi.
05:50 The two definitions of hen
06:43 Where does hen come from? Swedish language professor Karin Milles breaks down the etymology.
08:55: In 2007, Anne Uhrgård became the poster child for hen.
10:55: The debate over hen comes out of a larger conversation taking place in Sweden about gender equality.
13:21 "Language is magic!" Linguist Mikael Parkvall breaks down the debates taking place over the pronoun.
14:49 Does language influence culture?
19:07 Thoughts about hen from the streets of Stockholm
