Q: Service not listed when testing WCF I am trying to test my WCF service for a website I am making. I am using jQuery to call the service ($.getJSON()) but I keep getting Connection Refused Error on the website.
So I checked out the website that it makes when I deploy to the computer and my method "GetData()" is not even listed. It just lists the name of the service itself. I'm fairly new to using WCF in general so have mercy :') In the Test Client that Windows Studio opens my service is not even listed:

And when I try to add it, it says that the service is successfully added, but nothing shows. Earlier today I saw the methods in the list but had to delete the entire project because I messed up.

Interface:
[ServiceContract]
public interface ExampleServiceInterface
{
    [OperationContract]
    [WebInvoke(Method = "GET", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
    String GetData();

    [OperationContract]
    CompositeType GetDataUsingDataContract(CompositeType composite);
}

[DataContract]
public class CompositeType
{
    bool boolValue = true;
    string stringValue = "Hello ";

    [DataMember]
    public bool BoolValue
    {
        get { return boolValue; }
        set { boolValue = value; }
    }

        set { stringValue = value; }

}

Service:
public class ExampleService : ExampleServiceInterface
{
    public String GetData()
    {
        Random ran = new Random();
        TestClass[] tc = new TestClass[5];
        TestClass tc1 = new TestClass();
        tc1.TheText = "First Text " + ran.Next();
        tc1.TheOtherText = "First Other Text " + ran.Next();
        TestClass tc2 = new TestClass();
        tc2.TheText = "Second Text " + ran.Next();
        tc2.TheOtherText = "Second Other Text " + ran.Next();

    public CompositeType GetDataUsingDataContract(CompositeType composite)
    {
        if (composite == null)

            throw new ArgumentNullException("composite");
        }
        if (composite.BoolValue)

            composite.StringValue += "Suffix";
        }
        return composite;
    }
}

And lastly, just for good measure, here is the jQuery I use:
$(function() {
    $("input:button").click(function() {
        $.getJSON("http://localhost:52535/ExampleService.svc/GetData?callback=?", function(data) {
            alert(data);
        });
    });
});

A: First of all it will be better if you change the webInvoke attribute from this:
[OperationContract]
[WebInvoke(Method = "GET", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
String GetData();

To this:
[OperationContract]
[WebGet(ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json, UriTemplate="/getData")]
String GetData();

Than run you service and open it in browser by writing url like this:
http://host_name:port_number/service_name.svc/getData

After that you should get you data (if everythink is ok)

And when I try to add it, it says that the service is successfully
  added, but nothing shows. Earlier today I saw the methods in the list
  but had to delete the entire project because I messed up.

I think it happend because of webHttpBinding (which make your service restful) which you setting up in your web config file. Usualy test client generate invoke methods for SOAP services.

A: (Wanted to write a comment, but it got quite long...)
To create a simple rest service you have to do a few steps:
1) Define service methods and interface:
namespace CoreAuroraService.Services
{
    [DataContract]
    public class Patient
    {
        [DataMember]
        public String LastName{get;set;}

        [DataMember]
        public string FirstName{get;set;}
    }

    [ServiceContract]
    public interface IPatientService
    {
        [OperationContract]
        [WebGet(UriTemplate = "/GetAllPatients", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
        List<Patient> GetAllPatients();

        [OperationContract]
        [WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "/Create", Method = "POST", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
        bool CreatePatient();

        [OperationContract]
        [WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "/Update", Method = "PUT", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
        bool UpdatePatient(Guid patientGuid);

        [OperationContract]
        [WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "/Delete", Method = "DELETE", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
        bool DeletePatient(Guid patientGuid);
    }

    public class PatientService : IPatientService
    {
        public List<Patient> GetAllPatients()
        {
            var patient = new Patient() { FirstName = "Jeem", LastName = "Street" };
            var patients = new List<Patient> { patient };
            return patients;
        }

        public bool CreatePatient()
        {
            // TODO: Implement the logic of the method here
            return true;
        }

        public bool UpdatePatient(Guid patientGuid)
        {
            // TODO: Implement the logic of the method here
            return true;
        }

        public bool DeletePatient(Guid patientGuid)
        {
            // TODO: Implement the logic of the method here
            return true;
        }
    }
}

2) Now you have to define the behavior of your service. To do this you have to change the config file in your service project. In this file you have to define the service behavior and another settings that makes your service restful. To do this paste next code inside the serviceModel block:
<services>
  <service name="CoreAuroraService.Services.PatientService">
    <endpoint address="" behaviorConfiguration="rest" binding="webHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="maxStream" contract="CoreAuroraService.Services.IPatientService">
      <identity>
        <dns value="localhost"/>
      </identity>
    </endpoint>
    <host>
      <baseAddresses>
        <add baseAddress="https://localhost/Services/PatientService.svc"/>
      </baseAddresses>
    </host>
  </service>
</services>

<behaviors>
  <endpointBehaviors>
    <behavior name="rest">
      <webHttp helpEnabled="true"/>
    </behavior>
  </endpointBehaviors>
  <serviceBehaviors>
    <behavior>
      <!-- To avoid disclosing metadata information, set the values below to false before deployment -->
      <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" httpsGetEnabled="true"/>
      <!-- To receive exception details in faults for debugging purposes, set the value below to true.  Set to false before deployment to avoid disclosing exception information -->
      <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true"/>
    </behavior>
  </serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>

3) Now let's write a method which will invoke our service from javascript:
<script>
    function GetP() {
        // Now I need to send cross domain request to the service because my services hosted in another project
        // Tested in IE 11
        var url = "http://localhost:29358/Services/PatientService.svc/GetAllPatients";
        $.ajax({
            type: 'GET',
            dataType: "text",
            url: url,
            success: function (responseData, textStatus, jqXHR) {
                console.log("in");
                var data = JSON.parse(responseData);
                console.log(data);
            },
            error: function (responseData, textStatus, errorThrown) {
                alert('POST failed.');
            }
        });
    }
</script>

With cybersecurity in the national spotlight – from the campaign trail, to the President's cyber budget increases, to the potential for a Federal CISO in the coming months – agencies are feeling the heat to put their Cybersecurity Strategy and Implementation Plans (CSIP) into action. How are agencies approaching CSIP implementation? Where does CSIP play in overarching cybersecurity strategies for agencies? Will it help? Hear from key cyber players across government on how agencies are successfully incorporating CSIP as they develop next-gen cyber strategies.
Stopping the modern cyber adversary requires agile defenses and actionable data from the global threat community in order to detect and prevent today's known and unknown threats – from the network to the perimeter edge and endpoints, all the way into the heart of the data center. So, what role is next-gen security playing in stopping modern adversaries? How can we leverage the characteristics and techniques from cyber attacks we have prevented and detected to prevent future threats across the ecosystem? How can we enhance cyber transparency in the face of information sharing challenges such as privacy concerns, liability protection, and distrust of publicly exchanging cyber data?
We'll discuss what information sharing means and the role next-gen security plays in helping governments thwart tomorrow's attacks today.

Until its demolition in 1819, the city's medieval South Gate served as a prison; conditions there were notoriously bad. The painting by Mrs Mary Drew shows the last occasion on which a convicted prisoner was taken from it to be hanged. Surrounded by a large crowd, a carriage leaves the prison taking Richard Holmyard for execution to the gallows in Magdalen Road in 1818. Holmyard had committed forgery against the City Bank.

Shea Patterson
Herbstreit on UM QB Patterson: 'Let the guy ... play'
Angelique S. Chengelis, The Detroit NewsApril 17, 2018 GMT
As Michigan quarterback Shea Patterson, a transfer from under-probation Ole Miss, still awaits word from the NCAA whether he will be able to play this fall, there is growing outside noise supporting his immediate eligibility.
Kirk Herbstreit, ESPN college football analyst, told The Detroit News during a conference call Tuesday that he does not understand the holdup in clearing Patterson. Several former Ole Miss teammates also transferred from the school that is enduring multiple NCAA sanctions including a two-year bowl ban.
"Let the guy, let him play," Herbstreit said. "I don't know what the issue is. I have no idea what we're waiting on."
Herbstreit said college football players who transfer from a program under NCAA probation should be able to immediately play for their next school.
More: Herbstreit: UM's Maurice Hurst a 'steal' in NFL Draft
"These guys should be able to leave a program that's in disarray and be able to transfer out and be able to go and right away be able to join a program and be able to hit the ground running," Herbstreit said. "I feel bad that he's still dealing with some of that stuff."
Last week, Ole Miss athletic director Ross Bjork said in a statement the school had "no choice" but to file an objection to Michigan's request to the NCAA for Patterson's immediate eligibility. Michigan's compliance department handled the initial request to the NCAA.
Currently, the situation is in limbo and a timeline for an NCAA determination remains unclear.
Thomas Mars, Patterson's attorney, represented former Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt in a defamation suit against the school settled last year. Ole Miss also issued a formal apology last October for spreading lies that NCAA violations took place under Nutt's watch as head coach.
Patterson transferred to Michigan last December. He, along with his former Ole Miss teammates who also transferred, contend they were lied to by former head coach Huge Freeze, members of the football staff and athletic department personnel. Patterson believes he was misled during the recruiting process in 2016 regarding the breadth of the NCAA violations.
Mars eviscerated the Ole Miss objection.
"If I didn't know any better, I would have thought Ole Miss hired Pinocchio to write its response to Michigan's waiver request," Mars told The News last week.
In Herbstreit's role as a college football analyst, he sees football across the country. He knows what Patterson, if eligible this fall, can bring to the Michigan offense.
"Talk about a difference maker," Herbstreit said. "He is a unique player that can throw it, can run. Everybody talks about Jim Harbaugh, what's going on with Michigan, why aren't they winning. It's going to happen.
"Once he's recruiting the quarterbacks and the receivers and the skill it eventually will be there, and they might be there now on campus. Michigan will be fine. You know he's got to get a quarterback to get to the next level. Shea would give him that instantly. Hopefully that works out for him."

San Bernadino diocese and community organizers
Jim Holman2014-10-07T17:17:56-07:00October 9th, 2014|
Weiler from his Twitter page
The following comes from an Oct. 6 story on Inland Catholic Byte, an online publication of the San Bernardino diocese.
With voter participation spiraling to record low numbers in the two counties of the diocese of San Bernardino and an important national election approaching, an effort is underway to increase voting among Catholic and other faith communities here.
The Diocesan Office of Social Concerns and Inland Congregations United for Change, a faith-based community organizing group with strong Catholic ties, are helping parishes form civic engagement teams that will urge parishioners to vote in the November 4 general election. The parish teams will also urge support for State Proposition 47, the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act. The measure would allow those who commit six specified non-violent offenses to have their conviction downgraded from a felony to a misdemeanor, with the savings generated from reduced prison populations going toward mental health and drug abuse programs, K-12 education for at-risk youth and victims services.
At press time, civic engagement teams were already in place at ten parishes including Our Lady of the Rosary Cathedral and St. Bernardine Church in San Bernardino, St. Joan of Arc parish in Victorville and four parishes in the Coachella Valley. Eight other parishes are in the process of forming teams. ICUC is attempting to form a total of 40 civic engagement teams in Catholic and other denominations.
"This is a real opportunity for folks to get some experience in building social concerns ministry capacity at the parish level and to put faith into action," said community organizer Thomas Weiler. Community organizers conducted trainings of those who are serving on the parish civic engagement teams in September and the parish teams were then to start inviting parishioners to sign cards pledging to vote. Volunteers will next follow-up by phone with voters in their parish using voter registration lists cross-referenced with the signed pledge cards. Finally, the parish civic engagement teams will canvass homes around their churches in an effort to reach vote-by-mail voters….

Yes, but are they going to vote with a Catholic conscience? Do they even know what that means? Sounds like liberal leaning Social Justice teams looking for more Democrat voters.

VOTING means do NOT vote for candidates / politicians who support INTRINSIC EVILS.
INTRINSIC EVILS include:
Abortion;
Euthanasia;
Contraception;
Homosexual Marriage;
Embryonic Stem Cell Research; and
Cloning.
One may NOT Receive HOLY COMMUNION if they vote for – – – –
"WORTHINESS to RECIEVE HOLY COMMUNION – General Principles " Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI).

Registering American citizens to vote (not illegal aliens) is a good thing.
(Never encourage illegals to break the law.)
The article does not cover
1) – not voting for those who support INTRINSIC EVILS.
2) Nor does the article state which felonies they want downgraded to lessor crimes ? ? ?
Do not follow the suggestions of others without knowing the facts of any proposed legislation.
Usually details of proposed legislation can be found on the internet, or you can contact your County (City) office of the registrar for more information on ballot initiatives.

Mac, every registered voter in the state of California receives a fairly thick booklet with all of the propositions laid out, with pros and cons and follow up arguments for each. There is no reason that any voter does not know or understand the issues when they vote. It is getting the folks out to vote that is the issue. In the greatest democracy in the history of the world, the majority of people don't think that voting is important, worth taking the time away from soccer practice or that their vote counts. So, let's start with the positives and encourage them to try to get people to vote. That is a good first step.

Voting is "morally obligatory" for all Catholic citizens to "VOTE". (CCC 2240)
Remember that when we elect the morally corrupt who support intrinsic evils,
if elected, they appoint judges and high administrators of like mind.
Local, State, and Federal elections are all important.
Usually those seeking higher office start at the local level.
Check the voting records of incumbents on the internet to see if they support any of the intrinsic evils, or support them in their public actions and words.
Beward of candidates who say " I believe this, but support that ….".

If all of your choices of candidates support some of the intrinsic evils,
always vote for the lessor of the evils. – The one who will do the least harm.
In addition, one can check the National and the State Party Platforms (Democrat and Republican) on the internet. This will show you that particular Party's GOALS.
After election, always encourage elected officials to vote morally, and against intrinsic evils.
Send them emails, letters, phone calls, etc.
Proposed Federal, and State Legislation (and sometimes Local) can be found on the internet.

I checked the web site of the San Bernardino Diocese –
and they have no links encouraging Catholics to read the Bible or the "Catechism of the Catholic Church, Second Edition".
https://www.vatican.va/archive/ccc_css/archive/catechism/ccc_toc.htm
If your Diocese is not encouraging the literate to learn their Faith accurately and completely, contact the Office of the Bishop.
Ask that a prominent reference to the Bible, and another to the CCC be included on the web site, and in parish bulletins, and parish web sites.
Prior to calling the Diocese, read these quotes about the CCC from Popes St. John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and Francis. (It will give you ammunition if there is any resistance at the Diocese level.)

On the Diocese of San Bernardino homepage, click on New Evangelization
On USCCB page, click on what we believe
On that page: For Bible, Click on Bible, then click on Books of the Bible

I wonder which is worse: voting a carefully considered — but perhaps 'incorrect' — opinion or sitting on ones posterior and not voting.

Sometimes I prefer an overall shape to speak for the design of a piece. The Malou Couch is just such a design piece where the clean lines of the shape define its existence. There is nothing to waste here. The shape and lines are precise and methodical leaving nothing else to the imagination. You can see here it paired with a lime green ottoman creating quite the contrast in colors. Malou was designed by Gijs Papavoine.

An interesting group of testate amoebae is the genus Difflugia. There have been described hundreds of species, but the question is: how many of them are true species? Most descriptions are inaccurate of just based on one single test. Probably this group consists of several genera. Only DNA sequencing can help here. One of my projects is to make a visual map of all known species. It's one of the most difficult taxa to identify.


2.0 is an Indian science fiction starring Akshay Kumar and Rajnikanth. This duo makes this movie more special as for the first time ever in the history of Indian cinema, we are watching a bollywood biggie, portraying the role of villain in a tollywood movie. The picture has been directed by S. Shankar who also directed "Robot" which was cinematographically impressive.
With the collaborating hands of Rajnikanth and Akshay Kumar, this film is a treat for all generations everywhere. Rajiv (Akshay's real name) is known for his action movies, whereas, Shivaji (Rajnikanth's real name) is known for the movies based on social issues. The whole industry is waiting to watch this pair as its trailers/teasers depict some unfettered visual imagination and unconventional thinking. Amy Jackson will also be playing a very significant role in the film. This movie claims to be one of the most expensive movies of all times.
2. Did you like "Enthrian (Robot)"? Yes?
This movie is just created for you….
The movie "Robot" which hit the theaters in 2010 in which Thalaiva played the role of Professor Vaseegaran and Miss World 1994 (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan) was his lady love & luck in the movie. The movie enthralled the audience as it was a laugh-packed movie.
The 2.0 is another episode of Enthrian which is all set to amaze the spectators through its VFX and 3D animation.
Avatar! Transformers! Life of Pi!
I am sure that you must have heard the names of these movies, if not have watched yet.
– The man (Sean Foot) who created such spellbound characters in "Avatar" through his make-up skills, has been roped to do the makeup for the 2.0 characters.
– Kenny Bates, who got the fame after assisting many action scenes in "The Transformers" has also worked for 2.0.
– John Hughes, who has been awarded for "Life of Pi's" VFX and 3D Modelling, is responsible for handling the VFX team of 2.0.
4. How Akki bagged the role?
According to the sources, Arnold Schwarzenegger was first approached for Pakshi Rajan's (villain in 2.0) role. The team was not able to engage him in this collaboration due to his hefty quotations. Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan were also approached for this role and then, finally settled for Akki.
Well, they made the best choice out of all!
S Shankar, who is the director of 2.0, has a huge strategic thoughts for this project. His long-term vision for 2.0 is what differentiates this movie from others. In one of his recent interviews, he said, "he aims to create more projects like Robot and 2.0" and this statement indicates that he might create 3.0, 4.0 in future.
It will be interesting to watch this journey as 2.0 already is breaking all the records and is receiving a number of complements.

Sir Humphrey Howorth  (c.1684–1755), of Maesllwch Castle, Radnorshire, was a British landowner and  Whig politician who sat in the House of Commons for 33 years from 1722 to 1755.

Howorth was the son.of Humphrey Howorth  and a daughter of Charles Lloyd (died 1698) who brought Maesllwch into the family.  He married  Sibel Mainwaring daughter  of Roger Mainwaring, He or his father rebuilt the house at Maesllwch Castle and  established the surrounding park in 1715.

Howorth was receiver of crown rents in Cheshire from 1714 to 1730 and was knighted on  21 August 1715. Because he owned Maesllwch, he had a strong electoral interest at  Radnorshire  and as a Whig, he was led to believe  that it was impossible for the Tories put up against him. However the Duke of Chandos, Lord Lieutenant of the county, who also had a strong interest through stewardship of the King's manors, decided to lead a sustained campaign against him.

In 1719 he was one of the original backers of the Royal Academy of Music, establishing a London opera company which commissioned numerous works from Handel, Bononcini and others.

At the 1722 general election  Howorth was elected  convincingly as Whig Member of Parliament   for Radnorshire but it was a fierce and expensive contest. He faced further expensive contests in 1727  and  1734 which he won but had to counter petitions against the results. By this time, the  contests had cost him at least £10,000, and in 1740 he wrote to Walpole petitioning for the Lord Lieutenant to be replaced. This was unsuccessful and at the 1741 he again faced an expensive contest, which he won. His financial difficulties were compounded when he was ordered to pay into the Treasury £3,000 arrears from the crown rents which he had collected  in Cheshire before he lost the receivership in 1730. As a result, he had to sell much of his estate to his tenants, which affected his political influence. The Duke of Chandos died  in 1744 and in 1746 the stewardship of the Kings Manors was passed to the brother of   Howorth's friend and ally, Thomas Lewis,  and thus the interests were brought together. At the 1747 general election, there was opposition, but no contest. By about 1750 Howorth was described as miserably poor and  dependent on any Administration.  At the 1754 general election he was returned unopposed. He voted regularly with the Administration but, for all the expense, seems to have made little impression in Parliament.

Howorth's wife Sibel died on 4 March 1742 and he married as his second wife Mary Williams, widow of Henry Williams of Gwernyfed, Breconshire and daughter of John Walbeoffe of Llanhamlach, Breconshire. He died on 4 February 1755, leaving a son and daughter by his first wife. Maesllwch was encumbered by a mortgage of £26,000, and by the Treasury claim amounting in 1765 to £8,000.  It  was bought by the Clive family.

Soraa Radiant™ LED bulb is the only LED with full spectrum color and Soraa Healthy™ LED bulb is the only LED with Zero Blue™.
Fremont, CA, January 30, 2018 - Soraa, the trusted leader in high-quality, full spectrum LED lighting, announced today the launch of Soraa Radiant and Healthy LED bulbs for the home. These two lights bring a technically advanced, professional quality level of lighting to consumers. Soraa has combined the energy efficient benefits of LED with two important advancements: full spectrum color with Soraa Radiant LED bulbs for your visual soul, and Zero Blue light with Soraa Healthy LED bulbs for better sleep.
Soraa's professional bulbs have illuminated many of the world's most famous historical buildings, museums, hotels, galleries, and luxury retailers for nearly a decade. With Soraa Radiant LED bulbs, consumers can now bring that full spectrum color experience to their homes and enjoy natural, vibrant color the way it was meant to be seen.
Standard LED bulbs have color gaps; reds are not deep and rich, skin tones look unattractive, and shades of white easily blend into just one color. These gaps make standard LED light appear dull and artificial. Red is measured by a value called R9, and white is measured by a value called RW. Standard LED bulbs have R9 values below 10% and RW of zero. Soraa Radiant LED bulbs creates light with an R9 value of 95% and an RW value of 100%.
Human evolution and health is driven by light, and recent science is discovering the principal importance how light can affect sleep, and how poor sleep affects health. Invisible blue light is like the sun's wakeup call in the morning: it triggers our bodies to ease out of rest and be productive. At night sunlight naturally loses the invisible blue color spectrum and prompts our bodies to prepare for sleep by beginning melatonin production. Melatonin is a natural hormone that helps regulate sleep and wake cycles. When blue light disappears and melatonin levels rise, we become sleepy. That's just how we are wired.
The problem with standard LED bulbs is they pump out invisible blue light whenever they are on, no matter if they are dimmed or are "warmer" in color. In the evening, when most people use lights in their home, the lights are keeping your body awake, melatonin production is inhibited and falling asleep is more difficult because your body still thinks it's daytime.
Soraa Healthy LED bulbs are the only Zero Blue lights available. A beautiful soft white light that produces none of the melatonin inhibiting invisible blue light that all other LED bulbs produce. Evenings spent in Soraa Healthy light are a more natural way to prepare your body for the restful sleep it needs and craves.
As with all Soraa products, Radiant and Healthy LED bulbs are made with the highest quality. All are fully dimmable, with no buzz, even at low power levels. Also, Soraa light does not produce the stroboscopic effect that has been shown to cause headaches, eye-strain and fatigue.
The world's best designers, retailers and museums have been using Soraa to light unforgettable spaces for years. Now with Radiant and Healthy LED bulbs, Soraa is available for your home. Soraa Radiant LED bulbs come in A19, BR30, MR16 and GU10 fixture configurations and start at just $13.95 a bulb. Healthy LED bulbs come in A19 and BR30 fixture configurations and start at $18.95. They are available now on Soraa's site (soraahome.com) and on Amazon.
For more information on all of Soraa's LED lamps, please visit: www.soraa.com.
Since 2008, Soraa has focused on delivering superior quality LED lights and that singular purpose allows them to lead the world in providing LED lighting where color matters: high end retail, world class art museums, premium restaurants and hotels, and starting in 2017, the home. Soraa's Nobel Prize-winning LED technology uniquely creates full-spectrum lamps that provide unparalleled color rendering ability because the LED light is based in the violet spectrum instead of the industry's blue. Spaces feel vibrant and natural because Soraa lights render true whites and deep reds that other LEDs simply can't do. Soraa is based in Fremont California, where it manufactures its LEDs.

Died when: 53 years 288 days
Maria Callas, Commendatore OMRI (; Greek: Μαρία Κάλλας; December 2, 1923 – September 16, 1977) was an American-born Greek soprano. She was one of the most renowned and influential opera singers of the 20th century. Many critics praised her bel canto technique, wide-ranging voice and dramatic interpretations. Her repertoire ranged from classical opera seria to the bel canto operas of Donizetti, Bellini and Rossini and, further, to the works of Verdi and Puccini; and, in her early career, to the music dramas of Wagner. Her musical and dramatic talents led to her being hailed as La Divina. Born in Manhattan to Greek immigrant parents, she was raised by an overbearing mother who had wanted a son. Maria received her musical education in Greece at age 13 and later established her career in Italy. Forced to deal with the exigencies of 1940s wartime poverty and with near-sightedness that left her nearly blind onstage, she endured struggles and scandal over the course of her career. She turned herself from a heavy woman into a svelte and glamorous one after a mid-career weight loss, which might have contributed to her vocal decline and the premature end of her career. The press exulted in publicizing Callas's temperamental behavior, her with Renata Tebaldi and her love affair with Greek shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis. Although her dramatic life and personal tragedy have often overshadowed Callas the artist in the popular press, her artistic achievements were such that Leonard Bernstein called her "the Bible of opera" and her influence so enduring that, in 2006, Opera News wrote of her: "Nearly thirty years after her death, she's still the definition of the diva as artist—and still one of classical music's best-selling vocalists."

'Because my work and social life are quite intertwined it is hard for me to choose my perfect day out in London. A social day might be breakfast on a river boat or a great lunch in a riverside restaurant. Going to an art exhibition and grabbing a sandwich and some good coffee – mocha or a matcha. In the evenings I like to see dance or theatre performances or go to live music gigs, maybe salsa or dancing, followed by more good food!

Marie-Geneviève-Charlotte Thiroux d'Arconville (París, 17 de octubre de 1720-Ibidem, 23 de diciembre de 1805), más conocida como Geneviève Thiroux d'Arconville, fue una escritora, traductora y anatomista francesa. Estudió la putrefacción y la conservación de alimentos.

Trayectoria

Hija de André-Guillaume Darlus, un rico fermier général y de Françoise Geneviève Gaudicher, que falleció cuando Geneviève Thiroux d'Arconville solo tenía cuatro años.

Creció junto a su hermana menor y ambas fueron educadas, como obligaban las normas de la época para niñas acomodadas, insistiendo en su formación artística. En este contexto, Geneviève no aprendió a escribir hasta los ocho años y a los catorce fue desposada en un matrimonio acordado con Louis-Lazare Thiroux d'Arconville (1712-1789), asesor del Parlamento de París y más tarde presidente de una de las cámaras. El matrimonio tuvo tres hijos: Louis Thiroux de Crosne (1736-1794), André-Claude Thiroux de Gervilliers (1737-1810) y Alexandre-Louis Thiroux de Montdésir (1739-1822).

Estos antecedentes -hija de la nobleza financiera y parlamentaria y casada tan joven- no impidieron que desarrollara una pasión por la física, la química, la medicina, la botánica, la literatura, la moral, las lenguas y la historia. Hasta tal punto que, a pesar de su interés también apasionado por el arte, el teatro y la ópera, llegase a renunciar a la vida en sociedad para dedicarse al estudio de estas materias.

Es probable que en esta decisión tuviera que ver las secuelas físicas consecuencia de la viruela que contrajo con veintitrés años, empujándola a retirarse de la vida mundana.

Geneviève Thiroux d'Arconville publicó guardando su anonimato sin que se conozcan las razones precisas de tal decisión. La información existente hace pensar que su condición de esposa de un personaje público posiblemente la llevó a esconder su identidad, así como el temor a sufrir las críticas a las que las mujeres científicas eran sometidas en un campo que se consideraba impropio del género femenino. Así pues, si bien sus escritos no iban dirigidos a otras mujeres, sus textos estaban llenos de referencias que permitían llegar a reconocerla.

Falleció el 23 de diciembre de 1805. Su sobrino, el médico y botánico Pierre Bodard de la Jacopière (1758-1826), la recordaba en aquel entonces con estas palabras: «Con 85 años, su espíritu había conservado toda su amabilidad, todo su fuego, y su imaginación no había perdido nada de la frescura y los encantos de la juventud. Casi al final de sus días, todavía escribió sus Souvenirs, de los cuales existe una antología de trece volúmenes manuscrito.»

Trabajo científico
Su primera obra científica publicada fue la traducción de un tratado de osteología del médico británico Alexander Monro (1697-1767) titulado Osteology, A treatise on the anatomy of the human bones with An account of the reciprocal motions of the heart and A description of the human lacteal sac and duct. En su versión, y en contra de la opinión de Monro, que sostenía que la única manera de aprender era trabajar directamente con cadáveres, Thiroux d'Arconville añadió una treintena de tablas de esqueletos, entre ellas una de las primeras representaciones de un esqueleto femenino.

También añadió una tabla de materias para visualizar el orden de la obra, modificado por ella, una dedicatoria a Alexander Monro, un largo prefacio, notas explicativas, así como comentarios. Mientras que la versión original es un tratado de talla modesta y sin ilustraciones, la versión francesa se presenta en forma de dos volúmenes y con ilustraciones. Sin embargo, a pesar de estos aportes, el libro no se publicó reconociendo la autora de los mismos, cabe pensar que para preservarse de las críticas que recibían las mujeres científicas de la época. Finalizada en 1759, tras un largo proceso, la traducción se publicó bajo el nombre de Jean-Joseph Sue (1710-1792), el anatomista que realizó los treinta y un dibujos de la obra.

Entre 1755 y 1763, Geneviève Thiroux d'Arconville se dedicó al estudio de la putrefacción, que consideraba como la llave de todas las ciencias físicas y la base de la historia natural. Estudió la conservación de los alimentos y, además, inició un estudio sobre la transformación de la materia. Realizó varios centenares de experimentos sobre la conservación de sustancias putrescibles (carnes, pescados, huevos, leche, etc.) siguiendo un riguroso protocolo: anotaba cada día el estado de degradación de sus muestras junto a las condiciones exteriores (humedad, calor, etc.).

También introdujo el cloruro de mercurio como agente susceptible de luchar contra la putrefacción. Recopilando los resultados de sus experimentos, publicó en 1766 su Essai pour servir à l'histoire de la putréfaction.

Publicaciones
Entre sus publicaciones destacan:

Traducciones
 Avis d'un Père à sa Fille, 1756, traducido del inglés de Lord Halifax.
 Leçons de chimie, 1759, traducido del inglés de Shaw. Thiroux D'Arconville corrigió errores del original, añadió experimentos del médico inglés, los descubrimientos que se hicieron desde el momento en que estas lecciones se publicaron en Inglaterra hasta que se publicó la traducción que hizo en francés. Encabezando este tratado, escribió un discurso preliminar donde describe el nacimiento y el progreso de la química.
 Romans, 1761, traducido del inglés de Littleton y de Aphra Behn.

 De l'Amitié, 1761, en el que habla de las diferentes clases de amistad.

Smilo's products are designed to be healthy for babies and easy on parents' eyes
Posted by Catherine Shu | Aug 15, 2017 | BUSINESS / TECHNOLOGY | 0 |
For a basic baby item, picking the right pacifier is surprisingly daunting. Many new parents have no idea how many different pacifiers are on the market until they are staring bleary-eyed at store shelves. Babies are also notoriously picky about their soothers and often reject several brands before finding their favorite, but it's also important to use pacifiers that won't hinder teeth development.
Founded by a team including a biomedical engineer, dentist and industrial designer, Smilo is a new direct-to-consumer brand that wants to make buying pacifiers and other essential baby products easier for parents. The site launches today and has received $3.25 million so far in seed funding from Brand Foundry and Norwest Venture Partners. Its first lineup of products include pacifiers, bottles designed to reduce gas or ear infections and accessories like snack containers and pacifier clips that don't damage baby clothing.
Smilo chief executive Josh Wiesman and medical advisor Dr. David Tesini, a dentist, have licensed their patents for medical devices and other products to other companies for more than 20 years. They decided to launch an e-commerce company after seeing a gap in the market for functional but attractive baby products.
Wiesman patented his first pacifier design while he was still a sophomore in college. He first became interested in getting a medical or dental device patent while brainstorming ways to increase his chances of getting into medical or dental school. During winter break, he went to Dr. Tesini for a routine teeth cleaning. After spying a patent displayed on the wall, Wiesman told his dentist that he hoped to get his own patent, too. Dr. Tesini pulled out a folder for a pacifier that he stopped working on in 1985 and the two began a 20-year collaboration.
The two also founded TW Innovations, which makes pediatric orthodontic devices. Wiesman says he feels that there isn't a big difference between creating medical devices and making baby supplies. "The design and problem-solving process is the same. I think the opportunity to create amazing, game-changing products in the baby and child space is really what motivated me to make the switch," he says.
Smilo currently makes two pacifiers, a one-piece silicone model called the Smilo Newborn Pacifier and the Smilo Pacifier, which comes in three sizes and is reversible to make it easier for babies to pop into their mouths.
Wiesman explains that some pacifiers may collapse while babies are using them, which can cause them to develop a cross-bite. Smilo's patented pacifier designs avoid that by expanding slightly while in a baby's mouth instead. Smilo's team looked for data about pacifier design and palate dimensions and growth patterns for babies and toddlers up to three years of age in medical and dental journals. Then Wiesman says they hired a team to model a pacifier using finite element analysis to "understand how it flexed and stretched in the mouth during soothing."
There are also many bottles already on the market that are designed to help babies with gas (popular brands include Dr. Brown and Avent). Wiesman says the design of Smilo's nipples are based on the milk ducts inside a breast, making it easier for babies to eat without sucking in too much air or putting too much pressure on their mouth, stomachs and ears, and it also has a vent to let in air and keep from creating a vacuum.
Smilo will launch more products, including things for kids in other age groups, over the next months.

On a SP PvE player point of view, I don't feel like it's reliable item for a moving fight, unless it's a multiple target fight. Let's say the proc chance is around 4% (wich is a lot) you might use this proc around 2 or 3 time in a hole fight, depending on your class/spec. SP will not benefit it a lot, since they have Слово Тьмы: Боль and Слово Тьмы: Смерть wich they use every 13 sec in a one-boss-fight or more if the target is at 20%. It become reliable, for SP, when there's a lot of target to hit with Слово Тьмы: Боль and become usefull when the fight involves a lot of movement.
Yesterday, just the day before the patch, my Нитроускорители blew up just after a fight. As I was launched into the sky, I realised that instead of waiting for the parachute to put me back on the ground, I could just mount up and go. So that's what I did. I jumped on my flying mount while already in the air, propelled upward at high speed by a faulty goblin mechanism. That was by far the coolest move I've ever done in that game. I'm really glad I could experience it, but also sad to see it go forever.
As of Patch 7.2, there is now a visual ground animation that circles upward around your character indicating the buff Предвидение Норганнона. Screenshot submitted.

Things I would like to see, not in the grandiose "If I were King of the Forest" but in the "Well, that would be nice..." kind of way.
1). The Freeh Report on the massive institutional failures at Penn State contained 119 recommendations for improvement at the school. If the NCAA sanctions are designed as a deterrent measure to the other schools of the organization, then I would hope that each of the members could also demonstrate how they already meet or are working toward meeting the recommendations in the Freeh Report. Learn the lessons of others by demonstrating how your structures are in place to prevent horrific things from happening again.
I'd been said before, but remember that a baseball team would need to wear an "alternate" uniform 13 times a year to have the same proportional impact of a college football team wearing an alternate look. An NHL hockey team would need to do it six times a season. And this is if you just have one alternate look, not seven different looks during the course of a season.
3). That anyone who decides to drink would be so smart as to call a cab. Seriously, just call a cab, have a DD, but do not, DO NOT, get behind the wheel.
4). That the NCAA would stop trying to go all DC/Marvel at stop it with the retconning* such as taking away victories and such and instead just let what happened on the field stand with massive footnotes about the circumstances under which they occurred.
*-our friend Greg made this joke first, we very much enjoyed it.
I'm sure there's other things, but this seems like a good start.
Stand Up for Slovin in Style!
So a certain OHL team from a city named for the British Empire's second-worst general during World War I is suing the Michigan Daily, Matt Slovin, and a Mr. John Doe for reasons that aren't exactly clear. Poor Mr. Doe - he gets sued a lot.
Is that the Rangers' font? No, it's Univers, available in fine software packages everywhere. Is that the Rangers' shield? No, it's a modified version of the U.S. Highway shield. Do the Rangers have the rights to shields with diagonals on them? No, the heraldic bend predates the Rangers by centuries.
Print it out, stick it on a T-shirt or button, or do whatever you want with it. Ideally, use it to watermark paper on which you state your intentions to drop your silly lawsuit.
This post has everything to do with college football and nothing to do with college football all at the same time.
My grandfather is buried at Fort Custer National Cemetery near Augusta, Michigan. He served as a medic during World War II and is interred there in honor of his military service. Fort Custer National Cemetery is a part of the Fort Custer National Military Reservation, which was used during World War I as a mobilization facility and as a camp for German POWs during World War II.
"Sighting the Enemy" is an equestrian monument of George Armstrong Custer in his boyhood hometown of Monroe, Michigan, honoring his service for the Union Army during the United States Civil War. Standing in the heart of downtown Monroe, it is 14 feet tall and was dedicated in 1910 by President Taft himself. Monroe also has a Custer Airport and a Custer Elementary School, one of the largest in the state of Michigan.
There are six counties in the United States named for George Armstrong Custer, along with two villages, a city, and an unincorporated town. The US 85th Infantry Division was nicknamed the Custer Division, named for the Fort where it initially mustered during World War I.
George Armstrong Custer rose to prominence during the Civil War for his effectiveness as a cavalry commander, rising to the rank of (brevet) major general. He was present at Appomattox as a part of the Union delegation that received Lee's surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia. Custer, however, is best known for leading his U.S. 7th Cavalry unit into an ill-advised attack on the Lakota and Cheyenne, ending in a slaughter at the Battle of Little Bighorn, losing 268 men and seeing another 55 wounded.
Custer's action has been both seen plainly, such as by President (and legendary General) Grant: "I regard Custer's Massacre as a sacrifice of troops, brought on by Custer himself, that was wholly unnecessary – wholly unnecessary." and romantically, most famously by the Anheuser-Busch company's advertising campaign, showing "Custer's Last Stand" as a part of the larger narrative of the Indian Wars and the efforts to tame the frontier.
In the succeeding 135 years since Little Bighorn, Custer's legacy has been discussed, debated, revised, revised again, and still unsettled. Some would like to see Custer's name wiped off the map, forgotten, shamed, erased from history. Others want to honor Custer not for the end of his life, but for what he did before his completely fatal lapse in decision making, Others see the memorials and encomiums as a chance to be reminded of the whole of a man's life and legacy, as a chance to discuss the past, to understand the circumstances, and know that decisions have consequences.
After all, just because you have sighted the enemy doesn't mean you know how to deal with it.

Skill Based Matchmaking in Call Of Duty
Skill-based matchmaking SBMM , a system that aims at matching players of similar skill level within the same game, was implemented into Call of Duty: Modern Warfare The aim is to create a more balanced experience for everyone, as lower skilled players get separated and shielded from highly skilled ones. However, the vocal Call of Duty community hates the system, wants it removed and do not hesitate to let developers know about it on a daily basis. It turns out the system actually offers significant benefits for the companies and games implementing it. As a result, it seems clear that Skill-Based Matchmaking is here to stay. Finally a throwback to the most glorious days of the franchise and a game I was excited to play after not having touched a Call of Duty game since Black Ops 2 and besides the great remaster of CoD4, Modern Warfare Remastered. However, when it got released and I played it, something felt off.
Article by John Wilkie. Just so we all know our history? And all the mods were allowed?
level 2. [deleted]. 10 points · 4 years ago. "Good players" dont want lobbies where they have to try all Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War – Official Teaser Trailer.
If you've just started playing you're probably wondering why is Call of Duty Mobile so easy? The bad news is it's probably not because you're good. Sorry, truth hurts. The game is incredibly easy at the start and you'll find yourself winning games basically all the time and hardly ever dying. If you want to know why then this is where we explain [melodramatic TV voice] the shocking truth about what's going on on Call of Duty Mobile.
There's a simple answer to this potentially deep question: bots. For the first couple of games you play, you'll be pitted against exclusively bots too, before you rank up once or twice. The majority of the lobby will still be populated with bots though, and it's unclear at which level all the bots are removed. When it comes to the battle royale mode, you'll find bots there too.
Sorry to break it to you, but you aren't actually the best player in the world. Once you reach rank 10 however, you unlock ranked mode.
Perhaps the most controversial topic in all of competitive video gaming right now is skill-based matchmaking. Ranked game modes essentially double as a form of SBMM. On the surface, SBMM sounds like a great idea.
Disclaimer: I haven't really played a COD game since Black Ops (I beat the MW3 They usually bypass this by creating new Steam accounts and buying in the context of having skill-based matchmaking in non-ranked games. 2. It can be easily exploited by killing yourself over and over in a match.
According to a lengthy Reddit post , League Play is set to commence at the end of January, as part of the new World League Hub this is subject to change based on development, though. For starters, it's designed to emulate a pro schedule, meaning events will be intense and frequent, but shorter in duration. They'll also run over whole weekends or select three-day periods, rather than users choosing when to play matches.
In between those events, players can practise their skills in the unranked playlist Scrims, that utilises CWL rules and gameplay. And Scrims, as well as standard League Play, will use skill-based matchmaking. League ladders will boast player groupings, and Treyarch promises to deliver more details regarding the game's ranking system closer to when the mode launches. Once League Play is rolled out, World League Hub will introduce a whole list of new features, such as Teams and Clans, for "competitive-focused players".
There's "a feature incoming that will support equipping these camos in all modes while preserving what those camos represent. From next week, Gauntlets will launch first in Zombie's Voyage of Despair, and there's also the inclusion of "three new Elixirs on PS4, plus new balancing changes to existing Elixirs! Finally, Blackout looting has been improved. The battle royale mode will boast an easier-to-navigate interface, allowing console players to scroll faster through a multi-row grid.
Gotta get those wins quicker. What do you think about this news?
Frank Woods and Agent Alex Mason, joined by a wealth of new characters. Additional features include: two distinct yet linked playable time periods, advanced weaponry, branching storylines created by player choices in Strike Force missions, exciting multiplayer options, and more. In this conflict, the mechanized creations of men reign supreme, facing off against each other as their creators stay safe and unconflicted, and in the process grow ever softer.
In this scenario an important question will be asked: What happens when enemy steals the keys?
Skip ahead a few years Treyarch Studio came in to add to black ops to Around Black Ops 2 and then continuing, Skill-based matchmaking.
Epic Games has announced that it will be introducing skill-based matchmaking and bots to Fortnite in upcoming updates. As part of the This improved matchmaking system will be rolled out slowly across all regions and core modes. The developer also announced that Bots will be added to Fortnite in season 11 to help ease newer players into the game. According to Epic Games, as players improve in skill, they will face fewer bots.
Bots will not be present in Competitive playlists. This is another system that we will continue to update and iterate. In other news, Epic recently kicked off a Batman crossover event in Fortnite that introduces Gotham City as a point of interest, two new Batman-themed items, and several new cosmetics. He often thinks back to the days when the very idea of this career seemed like nothing but an impossible dream.
Having to account for 5v5 play, as well as the variety of roles a player can fill in Heroes posed a whole new set of challenges for us in terms of matchmaking. Arranged teams, or a group of players who enter matchmaking as a full party, are often able to better coordinate, communicate, and execute strategies than opposing random teams, which are teams made up of individual players grouped together via matchmaking. Though random teams can and do win against arranged teams, our win percentage data shows that arranged teams generally have a slight advantage over their random counterparts.
We feel that better games generally come from matching arranged teams with one another, and random teams with other random teams, and the Heroes matchmaker actually prefers to create games this way.
gamers' gripes about skill-based matchmaking or map design and so forth. Is 'Destiny 2' About To Pull Its Biggest Bait And Switch To Date? Now, players can buy the Battle Pass if they want but if they skip it they won't be and that whatever game releases in —whether that's a new Black Ops or.
That being said, over on Jeff's Twitter, he was saying that people were spamming replies at him because Sledgehammer mentioned him in a Tweet. One of the things a lot of people seemed to be complaining about was ranked matchmaking or whatever term they use for it. This strikes me as odd, because that seems like a good thing to have in a game.
I'm pretty heavily invested in CS:GO and if the competitive mode in that didn't have some kind of ranking system, it would be a total shitshow. CSGO seems to have a group of players that have the same issues with matchmaking. They usually bypass this by creating new Steam accounts and buying copies of the game in bulk for that purpose people who love to hack do it too.
I think it's mostly because they'd rather be pwning f00ls than playing matches against similar skilled opponents. That or they feel that matchmaking is broken. Gah I accidentally deleted the post cus I wanted to edit it. When people complain about this it's usually in the context of having skill-based matchmaking in non-ranked games.
On the one hand, I kind of agree. Having some kind of ranking stuff separating players in unranked play seems kinda dumb. It's nice to switch off and shoot dudes sometimes without thinking, but think of how awful it'd be for new players if that was the case. Because part of the fun of COD for some people is getting good enough to destroy the other team, and it's hard to do that when you're a good player who is constantly being matched with other good players.
I have been playing video games for a long time, but on consoles, my foray into the world of First Person Shooters is fairly new. When I picked up my Xbox , I got into shooters almost exclusively because a friend of mine recommended it. Now, I am not a particularly rich man, so I pick a game and I tend to stick with it for a while. I have played the Call of Duty series, so after completing the story of Modern Warfare 3 , I was excited to hear about the new features that were coming up in Black Ops 2.

Do you belive banning guns will reduce violent crime if so why?
Sweden has one of the highest gun ownership rates in the world as it is mandatory for males aged 18 to do military service and afterwards are forced by law to keep their rifle at there house loaded at all times (pretty sure they have to have them loaded by law correct me if you know I'm wrong) so each house... show more Sweden has one of the highest gun ownership rates in the world as it is mandatory for males aged 18 to do military service and afterwards are forced by law to keep their rifle at there house loaded at all times (pretty sure they have to have them loaded by law correct me if you know I'm wrong) so each house would probably have 1-3 guns in each house and yet they have one of the lowest gun violence rates in the world . Explain how this is possible.
Best Answer: Absolutely, I'm from Australia and guns along with various other weapons are outlawed.
The fact is that if guns were outlawed, hardened criminals would still get their weapons, but the hardened criminals generally use their weapons against other hardened criminals. The general public however, do not have access to these weapons; and the only way to do so is through the timely and often dangerous process of befriending hardened criminals, which 99% of the population will never do. I think I can quite safely say that the kid who shot all those children in Connecticut would not have done so if he had not had such easy access to weaponry. If guns were outlawed in America he would have had to befriend hardened criminals, and would of most likely had a long and arduous journey in order to obtain a powerful weapon. And judging from the reports of various newspapers/media outlets he does not sound like the sort of person who would have had those connections, nor been able to create those connections.
Guns are simply too much responsibility and power for the average citizen to possess.
Source(s): Lots of different sources mashed up in my brain to create my opinion.
Its actually quite simple. If I'm a robber and I know that you are armed, I'm going to think twice about breaking into your house because I know that you are armed and that you could kill me. I know that certain States in the USA allow you to carry a gun in public. I think indiana and Texas allow you to actually carry guns in public. Guess what the crime rate goes down. If you are a criminal, wouldn't you rather shoot someone that is unarmed, then take a chance of getting killed by someone that is armed. Since criminals obtain most or all of their weapons illegally and don't register their fire arms, they wouldn't turn them in. On the other hand, law abiding citizens would be force to give up their firearms since they are registered, and they would be completely disarmed. Banning guns would also make street gangs, criminals, and thugs really happy because now they get the green light to do what ever they want. They can break in, kill you and your family and by the time you call the cops, your whole family is dead.
because at the same time as the ban in common words consequences a unmarried city, they're nonetheless truly, really ordinary to get. the in common words way a gun ban can artwork is on a huge scale. it's going to take a short at the same time as to get maximum of them off the streets, yet ultimately it's going to get to the point the position sure, that is going to likely be in common words outlaws which have handguns, yet they're going to be too puzzling/too intense priced for the common street urchin to receive.
i dont think that banning guns will in any way lower gun violence. Look at drugs, they are illegal but yet they are not used any less.
if they don't have a gun the violent person will use a knife , home made explosives etc. PEople kill , guns don't. on top of that drugs are illegal that doesn't stop people from having them.
Do you think criminals will be deterred by the fact they can't get guns legally?
I know it's cheesy, but the quote "Guns don't kill people. People kill people" is true.
No! the guns are not violent, ARE THEY?
Why haven't murders and violent crime been reduced in cities with Gun Bans?

Below, you can see a drawing that, according to a 2ch user, has appeared on the studio's employee entrance exam. Toei, of course, is famous for an array of anime, and some of Japan's most famous animators, including Hayao Miyazaki, got their start there.
The question shows a picture of a boy holding a mallet and tells applicants that it is extremely heavy for the kid. "Starting from this pose, draw five or six pictures that end with him hitting the stake," the question reads. "Please draw the character without changing his size."
Applicants, it seems, have two hours to complete the drawings.
Seems easy, no? But as famed animator Yasuo Otsuka, who worked at Toei Animation as well as Studio Ghibli, explained in a 2002 documentary, it's deceptively hard.
