6 Awesome Zen Stories That Will Teach You Important Life Lessons
buddhaimonia.com
Zen has a rich tradition of storytelling. Actually, just about the entire human race has a rich history of storytelling. Why do we like stories so much? Because we can identify with them. Stories, whether real or not, pull and tug at our emotions. We connect personally with stories.
During a Q&A session a student said to master Roshi he'd been listening to his lectures for years but couldn't understand. So he asked Roshi to reduce Buddhism to one phrase. "Everything changes," Roshi said. Then Roshi asked for another question.
Being aware of the ever-changing nature of reality and appreciating the present leads to peace in everyday life.
Empty Your Cup
A university professor researching Zen sought master Nan-in, who served him tea. Nan-in poured his visitor's cup full, and then kept on pouring. The professor watched the overflow until he no longer could restrain himself. "It is overfull. No more will go in!"
"Like this cup," Nan-in said, "you are full of your own opinions and speculations. How can I show you Zen unless you first empty your cup?"
Non-Judgment
A farmer was consoled by his neighbors who claimed it was bad luck his horse ran away. The farmer replied "Maybe." The horse returned with more horses, so his neighbors said it was luck. The farmer said "Maybe." Later a horse broke his son leg and the neighbors said it was a misfortune. The farmer said "Maybe." The next day his son escaped conscription thanks to his broken leg and the neighbors congratulated the farmer on how well things had turned out. The farmer said "Maybe."
Time goes on and good and bad are two sides of the same coin. Being aware of this allows us to find peace and happiness.

Always Running
We all are in a hurry to go somewhere, hankering something greater, better, most substantial and more significant than our present.
Human beings have made it necessary to run towards something, even if there is nothing to run at. It's always a belief that one's life has to be moving and just sitting stationary is a sin.
People without a drive to go anywhere are generally looked down upon and labelled inefficient, incompetent, and lazy. One cannot be still in this fast-paced world.
Being, Not Doing
Zen teachings tell us that we are perfect as we are, where we are. Life is perfect as it is, and there is no need to rush anywhere to find happiness.
People have this misconception that getting a better job, making more money, buying new fancy toys, will provide them with happiness, because true happiness can be attained right now, at this very moment.
Get Off The Hamster Wheel
Once we stop striving to get somewhere else, only then we get off the rat race, the hamster wheel of life thrust upon us by society, and find peace in this very moment, as this is all that we have.
Just being in this perfect moment, understanding that there is nowhere to go, and immersing yourself in love and gratitude is the key to happiness.


Darkroom work. Printing the photo beside the Mexico-USA border.
I got "Leitz Valoy II enlarger" from Narabayashi-san. Valoy II is very small and Kawaii. It can enlarge only 35mm film, but my recent main camera is Leica so it's enough. If I need to print Medium and Large format, I will go Suzuki Shashin Koubou(rental darkroom) in Gotanda.
I got Rllei35T from an illustrator, and took some test shot. The Rollei35T is very compact and easy to bring in my pocket! very nice. Design is also cool and I feel happy to take one. The Focusing is difficult because it's eyeball system.


Industrial waste is waste generated by an industrial, manufacturing, or commercial process and managed as a separate waste stream.
The Ponderosa is permitted to accept certain industrial wastes if they have been evaluated through the Industrial Waste Management Plan and found to be acceptable. Each industrial waste stream must be evaluated separately and determined to be acceptable on a case by case basis.
The Ponderosa will only accept industrial wastes that have been individually approved through the Industrial Waste Management process. Industrial wastes which have not been approved in advance will be turned away at the scale.
After written approval has been received, schedule your disposal time at the landfill. Be sure to bring your waste approval letter along to the landfill when bringing the waste.
The Ponderosa Landfill does not accept hazardous waste.
Base rates for wastes defined as Industrial or Special Waste will also be $45 per ton, plus Minnesota Solid Waste Tax. Prices on some of these wastes may vary according to waste characteristics, but all Industrial or Special Waste pricing will be on a per ton basis. To receive consideration for special rates on waste defined as Industrial or Special Waste, contact the Ponderosa at least one week before waste delivery.
How do I get a charge account at the Ponderosa?
Is the Ponderosa Landfill open on holidays?
What environmental protections are in place at the Ponderosa Landfill?

The IMEI (International Mobile Station Equipment Identity) , a unique number which is assigned to every mobile phone sold officially. The IMEI number is associated with SIM slots. A dual sim featured phone have two IMEI numbers. This number is useful when you lost your phone or you might be asked for IMEI number if you are selling an old phone online. In case of a lost phone, The Police ask for the IMEI number when making a FIR and then they can blacklist the respective IMEI number from calling or accessing network. To find IMEI number of your mobile follow my instructions in the post.
For your better understanding i have divided the post into parts as follows.
Yeah! This is the most simplest way of finding the IMEI number of a phone. This method works on most of the feature phones or smartphones. So, just try this easiest way before going for any other way.
Dial *06# from your mobile.
Now the IMEI number(s) will be displayed on your mobile screen.
Now you should take a screenshot of it or note it a down and keep in a safe place.
If you are on Android. go to Settings. Click on About phone > Status and then find out your IMEI Information.
Specifically if you are using an iPhone 5 or any newer iPhone, the IMEI number is crafted on the back panel. Flip your iPhone and note it down. If you are on iPhone 4S or older iPhones then the IMEI number is printed on the SIM tray.
The IMEI number on most other phones is printed inside the phone. It is printed on a sticker which is under the battery. Just remove the battery and note it down.
Any one of these, the phone's bill or retail box becomes important when you lost your phone. The IMEI is written on both the retail box and bill of the phone. So, it is better to have the retail box instead throwing it outside. Keep it safe if you want to sell you phone later or essentially know the IMEI number of your phone.
If you are an Android user, then you have the ultimate advantage of knowing your Mobile's IMEI number even if you lost your phone and don't have its retail box and bill.
• Sign in to Google Dashboard using your Google account which is linked to your Android mobile.
• Click on Android which is next to the Android logo.
• Now it will show you the list of devices associated with your Google account and their IMEI numbers.
Thanks for spending your precious time in reading my article. Hope you like this post and will share with your friends and family.

The narrowing gap between yields on long-term and short-term Treasury bonds has helped convince at least one USA central banker the Federal Reserve should stop raising interest rates until and unless inflation or growth picks up.
Note that the Fed's own range of estimates for the neutral rate was 2.3 percent to 3.5 percent in June.
The US Treasury yield curve, as represented by 10s2s spread, hit fresh 11-year low (flattest) since August 2007. Further, the central bank intends to hike rates two more times this year.
Paul Gosar, R-Prescott, to restrict designation of critical habitat on limited water infrastructure areas, and another by Rep. The ESA defines a threatened species as one that is likely to become an endangered species within the "foreseeable future".
A yield curve is said to invert when yields on short-term debt exceed those on long-term debt.
Treasury yields changed little following Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's semiannual monetary policy report today to the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, citing that the strength of the economy is prime for "gradually raising the federal funds rate".
Among Fed policymakers who do see a flashing yellow light in the flattening yield curve - among them, Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan - Kashkari stands almost alone in calling for a pause in rate hikes.

Coinbase's Move Towards Arbitration in a Cryptocurrency Fraud Lawsuit Goes Sour
April 13, 2022 at 11:00 am by Wayne Jones
Crypto Regulation
Coinbase Inc., a cryptocurrency exchange firm, has failed in its attempt to compel arbitration in a dispute over cryptocurrency worth more than $31,000, that was stolen from Abraham Bielski.
Why Coinbase is in a Bubble
Coinbase runs a website where clients may buy and sell digital currencies like bitcoin. One of the organization's services is a "Conversion Service," which allows consumers to exchange their cryptocurrencies for cash. The financial entity purchases bitcoin from its customers at a fee determined by a "Conversion Rate" disclosed on its website. The plaintiff agreed to the company's user agreement, which included an arbitration clause, to open his Coinbase accounts.
A con artist posing as a PayPal representative attacked Abraham Bielski, a Coinbase user. Remote access to Bielski's Coinbase account was given, and the perpetrator transferred assets worth more than $31,000 out of Bielski's digital wallet. He alleges that Coinbase's customer assistance was unresponsive and ineffectual following the crypto fraud. He said that their response was "poor and inefficient", and they were negligent regarding the safety of users' funds.
Bielski sued Coinbase for allegedly breaking the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and Regulation E. He wants the case to be certified as a class-action lawsuit.
U.S. Court Rejects Coinbase's Move
The United States District Court denied Coinbase's attempt to impose Arbitration of Bielski's charges for the Northern District of California on April 8th.
The party seeking to enforce Arbitration must establish both that the petitioner is relying on a contract to establish its claims and that the arbitration clause in that contract addresses the dispute under the law.
Bielski signed up for the delegation clause when he registered for the account, claiming that the arbitration clause's applicability, scope, and validity are questions for the arbitrator to consider.
According to the court, Coinbase's arbitration clause describes only those claims that have initially gone through the pre-arbitration complaint procedure." "The arbitration terms impose no obligation on Coinbase to resolve its disputes with users to mandatory Arbitration because only Coinbase clients can make a complaint through the pre-arbitration complaint procedure.
The court stated that the user agreement declares a burdensome and unfair pre-arbitration claims process on clients and sends their grievances to binding Arbitration, but not Coinbase's objections. "The delegation clause plainly incorporates the lack of mutuality in Coinbase's complaint process," the court said, adding that it "imposes an unreasonable, unjust burden beyond that of a conventional delegation clause."
The U.S. District Court upheld the dismissal of the defendant's attempt to compel Arbitration because Arbitration could not be forced by law.
Is this a Win for the Plaintiff?
While the court's decision to deny the order to mandate Arbitration is a clear victory for the plaintiff, he still has a long way to win the case on the merits. Bielski must now establish that Coinbase had a legal obligation to combat the underlying fraudulent activity of one of its clients that caused loss to a third party under the legislation.

DOMINATRIX GETS OFF EASY
Kate Sheehy
Social Links for Kate Sheehy
A dominatrix from Martha Stewart's hometown of Bedford received a slap on the wrist from whipped authorities yesterday.
Sandra Chemero, a middle-aged S&M mistress, had been charged with prostitution and weapons possession last year while running her house of pain from a Victorian estate next to an Orthodox rabbinical school in the tony Westchester enclave.
But prosecutors agreed to drop those charges under a deal in which the buxom brunette pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct and received a sentence of 30 hours of community service.
Chemero's lawyer, George Galgano, denied that his client engaged in anything other than legal S&M.
"The media has painted this picture of her being a prostitute, which is so far from the truth," he said.
A detective had previously testified at a hearing related to a search warrant of her rented home that Chemero had offered to use sex toys on him as part of a $400 pain-and-pleasure appointment.
The dominatrix has posed on her leather-saturated Web site with whips, chains, straps and sex toys, flanked by men in masks.
She refers to herself as an "elegant, attractive, dominant woman" who is "devoted to female superiority, proper training and etiquette for the betterment of men."
One photo depicts her apparently urinating in the mouth of a bound male "subject."
Needless to say, well-heeled neighbors in the posh nabe – about 45 minutes north of Manhattan and home to Stewart and other notables like Ralph Lauren – were not amused.
Cops were first tipped off to possible illegal activities at the home by an anonymous letter writer who griped about the amount of traffic coming and going from the site.

House vote kills proposal to shrink size of Pennsylvania Legislature
Updated: 7:46 PM EDT Oct 15, 2018
MARK SCOLFORO Associated Press
A proposal to shrink the number of lawmakers in the Pennsylvania Legislature was killed Monday by a procedural vote in the state House, a quick death for a proposal that has lingered for years.The House vote of 114-76 was the last stand for supporters trying to keep alive the constitutional amendment as the current two-year session nears a close.Constitutional amendments in Pennsylvania must be passed with the exact same language in two consecutive sessions before they can go to voters as a referendum.The amendment that passed in the last session would have shrunk the House alone, from 203 members to 151. Supporters were trying to strip out language that was subsequently added to also cut the Senate from 50 to 38.House Republican leaders who control the chamber said after the vote that supporters will have to start over next year.The floor debate Monday barely touched on the relative merits of the proposal, which backers have said was aimed at making the chamber operate more efficiently, and perhaps, reap a modest cost savings.Instead it focused on fine points of House rules, under which the bill had recently been changed to add back in cuts to senators - a poison pill given the House-only vote in the last session and the Senate's consistent opposition.Rep. Steven Mentzer, R-Lancaster, said House members had "one more chance to have this bill placed on the ballot, simply placed on the ballot so the people of Pennsylvania can decide what size they want their Legislature to be."Rural parts of the state would see their representation diminished by a smaller House, argued Rep. Cris Dush, R-Jefferson."We're supposed to be a representative republic, and that means getting the representation in the people's house the closest and most intimate it can be," Dush said.Majority Leader Dave Reed, R-Indiana, argued that lawmakers should have a clean vote on a House-only bill."The people of this state deserve a straight-up vote on the language that was passed last time, so folks can be on the record on where they actually stand on the issue," Reed said.In the procedural motion, Democrats voted unanimously in favor of the position that effectively killed the bill's chances, while Republicans were split.Pennsylvania has the second-most lawmakers of any state, behind only New Hampshire, and the most of any full-time legislature.
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) —
A proposal to shrink the number of lawmakers in the Pennsylvania Legislature was killed Monday by a procedural vote in the state House, a quick death for a proposal that has lingered for years.
The House vote of 114-76 was the last stand for supporters trying to keep alive the constitutional amendment as the current two-year session nears a close.
Constitutional amendments in Pennsylvania must be passed with the exact same language in two consecutive sessions before they can go to voters as a referendum.
The amendment that passed in the last session would have shrunk the House alone, from 203 members to 151. Supporters were trying to strip out language that was subsequently added to also cut the Senate from 50 to 38.
House Republican leaders who control the chamber said after the vote that supporters will have to start over next year.
The floor debate Monday barely touched on the relative merits of the proposal, which backers have said was aimed at making the chamber operate more efficiently, and perhaps, reap a modest cost savings.
Instead it focused on fine points of House rules, under which the bill had recently been changed to add back in cuts to senators - a poison pill given the House-only vote in the last session and the Senate's consistent opposition.
Rep. Steven Mentzer, R-Lancaster, said House members had "one more chance to have this bill placed on the ballot, simply placed on the ballot so the people of Pennsylvania can decide what size they want their Legislature to be."
Rural parts of the state would see their representation diminished by a smaller House, argued Rep. Cris Dush, R-Jefferson.
"We're supposed to be a representative republic, and that means getting the representation in the people's house the closest and most intimate it can be," Dush said.
Majority Leader Dave Reed, R-Indiana, argued that lawmakers should have a clean vote on a House-only bill.
"The people of this state deserve a straight-up vote on the language that was passed last time, so folks can be on the record on where they actually stand on the issue," Reed said.
In the procedural motion, Democrats voted unanimously in favor of the position that effectively killed the bill's chances, while Republicans were split.
Pennsylvania has the second-most lawmakers of any state, behind only New Hampshire, and the most of any full-time legislature.


When audiences caught a glimpse of an alien skull mounted in the trophy cabinet of a Predator in the 1990 film PREDATOR 2, it seemed a franchise was about to be born. Sure enough, comic book artists immediately seized on the possibilities suggested by the brief scene, and a number of skirmishes between the deadly foes were played out on the printed page. Fans have had to endure a lengthy wait for a cinematic match-up, but writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson (EVENT HORIZON) has finally delivered the blood-splattered goods in ALIEN VS. PREDATOR Movie. Set in the near future, a team of archaeologists lead by Charles Wiedland (Lance Henriksen, returning for more ALIEN action after appearances in the second and third films) ventures towards an inexplicable "hot zone" detected in Antarctica. Joined by Alexa Woods (Sanaa Lathan) and the requisite amount of human fodder for the otherworldly creatures to feast on, Wiedland and his cohorts discover a sizeable underground pyramid. Chaos ensues as they awake the Queen alien from her blissful slumber, causing face-hugging and chest-bursting scenes aplenty. But the ailing crew has a further quandary to grapple with in the shape of some fearsome Predators, who are using the aliens as bait for their offspring to brawl with in an ancient initiation ritual. With the human team trapped in the labyrinth-like pyramid, the battle evolves into a nail-biting three-way tussle between the archaeologists and their extraterrestrial adversaries. Fans of both the ALIEN and PREDATOR movies should find much to satiate their appetites here, and with an ending suggesting further hostilities between the pernicious coupling, this one looks set to run and run.

Investigations have disclosed that some retail outlets are still collecting N50 PoS Stamp Duty charge from customers despite CBN's directive.
Chidinma Nwagbara
Following the directive of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) that N50 Point of Sale (PoS) Stamp Duty charge should be collected from businesses and not customers, some retail outlets are still collecting the fee.
The retail outlets in the e-payment value chain such as filling stations and supermarkets, which are supposed to be paying the Stamp Duty fee themselves as it is a merchant charge, not a customer charge, have continued to collect the illegal fee from customers.
In order to avoid dispute between customers, what some do is to add it directly to the customer's purchases while others just put up a notice of the payment for customers to see before purchasing anything.
Speaking on the trend, the President of the Bank Customers Association of Nigeria, Uju Ogubunka, said that the actions being carried out by the businesses in spite of the CBN's directive were condemnable and that it should stop.
He called on the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) to ensure compliance with the directive by marketers while also urging the CBN to ensure full compliance's across retail shops.

"I expect the CBN to move beyond its directive that bank customers reject the fee and fight for customers. Another option is for the customers to carry cash and avoid the fee where the risks are minimal." Ogubunka said.
On the other hand, the CBN Director, Payment System Management Department, Musa Jimoh, according to The Nation, advised customers to reject the N50 PoS fee. He emphasized the fact that the stamp duty which is a fee regulated by an Act has been misinterpreted by many.
"Our circular that talks about merchants paying stamp duty according to the law does not say that the stamp duty should be paid by the consumer. That's actually a misrepresentation of the CBN's directive.
"What our directive says is that merchants should pay all necessary charges as regulated by the government agency, including stamp duty. When there is an electronic transaction to an account other than savings account and the transaction amount is more than N1,000, you have to pay stamp duty," the CBN official said and quoted by The Nation.
What you should know: Data obtained from the Nigerian Inter-Bank Settlement Scheme disclosed that depositors across banks did transactions worth N97.32 trillion over the instant payment and Point of Sales (PoS) in the last 11 months.
While a total of N94.49 trillion worth transaction were conducted via the instant payment platform, another N2.83 trillion were carried out by banks' depositors on the PoS platform within the same period under review.

This issue of Bank the C.B.N SHOULD COME up with a strong hand so that this rubbish we stop i went to my bank G T BANK today and there are still talking that THE C.B.N directive can not work there should obey the rule of law
PapaRash
The CBN as a regulatory body is making the whole issue messy.
You have directed that merchants pay N50 stamp duty on products you don't have fixed and regulated prices on and the merchant in turn increases prices on his products.
What is the fuse about the increase? Can Emiefele run his own business and accept this directive when cost has been push to him?
Which part of my business does CBN support me? Running capital, insurance, staff salaries, rentage, security etc.
To me, the apex bank is confused.
Uganda's President Museveni has won a 6th term in office as the opposition alleges wide-scale rigging.
William Ukpe
The President of Uganda, Yoweri Museveni, has been re-elected as President, gathering 5.85 million votes compared to 3.48 million votes by main opposition leader, Robert Kyagulanyi, a.k.a Bobi Wine.
According to Reuters, this victory represents 58.6% of the vote cast while Bobi Wine got 34.8%
Bobi Wine announced that the election results show this is the most fraudulent election in the history of Uganda and urged his followers to reject the result.
Yoweri Museveni, aged 76, has been President of the East African nation since 1986.
Bobi Wine claimed via his official Twitter handle that military men jumped over his fence and took control of his home yesterday.
Combined Vaccine Manufacturing capacity to hit 6.8 billion doses in 2021
COVID-19 vaccine manufacturing capacity is expected to hit 6.8 billion doses in 2021.
Johnson Uche
Meristem Group disclosed that the combined effort in manufacturing COVID-19 vaccines for global use is expected to yield about 6.8 billion doses in 2021.
This was revealed in the Annual Outlook 2021 report presented by Meristem Group, titled "Bracing for a different future."
According to the report, the existing manufacturing capacity will only be sufficient enough to immunize about 44% of the global population, which would create obvious vaccination gap and make the pandemic last longer than necessary.
The report states,
"The cold temperature requirements for vaccine storage pose major logistics concern particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa and other low-income countries. WHO estimates that about 50% of vaccines are wasted every year, largely due to a lack of temperature control."
According to the report, the estimated 6.8billion doses are expected to be collaboratively manufactured as follows: CanSino – 0.2billion, AstraZeneca – 3.0 billion, Gamaleya – 0.3billion, Moderna – 0.4billion, Pfizer-BioNtech – 1.3billion, SinoPharm – 1billion, and SinoVac – 0.6billion.
The global population as of 2020 is 7.8billion and 70% is required to achieve herd immunity (otherwise called herd protection)
Herd Immunity or herd protection is achieved when you have most of the population immunized against an infectious disease.
2 doses of the vaccines are required for each person for immunity.
It is expected that between 11 and 15 billion doses would be required to achieve the desired herd immunity, globally.
From all indications, herd immunity may not be achieved until mid or late 2022, with the subsisting 100% vaccine production capacity utilization in 2021 – with neither production nor distribution losses.
To achieve regulatory approval, a vaccine must undergo a three-stage clinical development process after the exploratory and pre-clinical stages and the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sets a phase 3 efficacy benchmark of 50%.
Covid-19: Global deaths surpass 2 million
Global casualty record for the Covid-19 pandemic surpassed 2 million deaths on Friday.
The Global casualty record for the Covid-19 pandemic surpassed 2 million deaths on Friday, with the United States accounting for 1 in every 5 deaths, as it has recorded over 386,000 casualties so far.
This was disclosed in a report by Reuters in its Covid-19 tally reported on Friday evening.
After the United States, Brazil, Mexico, India and the U.K contribute nearly 50% of the combined casualties.
The report also disclosed that an average of 11,900 casualties are recorded per day in year 2021, despite the fact that it took 9 months for the world to record 1 million casualties.
United Nations Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, said the 2 million death count was "a heart-wrenching milestone."
"Behind this staggering number are names and faces: the smile now only a memory, the seat forever empty at the dinner table, the room that echoes with the silence of a loved one," he added.
The WHO warned that 2021 could be tougher due to the nature of new variants which transmit the disease faster.
"We are going into a second year of this. It could even be tougher given the transmission dynamics and some of the issues that we are seeing," WHO Chief, Mike Ryan, said.
Analysts expect the global death toll to surpass 3 million by April 2021.
Nairametrics reported that the total number of covid-19 cases in Nigeria had surpassed the 100,000 mark on Sunday 10th January 2021, according to the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control.
The African Union stated that it secured 270 million Covid-19 vaccine doses for the continent from drug manufacturers to supplement the COVAX programme, a step towards the commencement of the complex task of vaccinating over 1.2 billion people with limited financial resources.
The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control on Friday 15th January 2021, announced that 1,867 new cases of the covid-19 virus were recorded across 24 states in the country. This represents the highest number of cases recorded in a single day.

Q: PHP loop through array of object gives unexpected result I have the following PHP code to set parentId for each post.
The parentId of each data all become the last post ID.
What's wrong with my logic?
btw, if I change it to array, everythings becomes ok. Please help!
$data = array(
    (object)array('name' => 'myname')
);
$posts = array(
    (object)array('ID' => 1, 'data'=>$data),
    (object)array('ID' => 2, 'data'=>$data),
    (object)array('ID' => 3, 'data'=>$data)
);
foreach($posts as &$post){
    $post->data[0]->parentId = $post->ID;
}
print '<pre>';print_r($posts);die;
die;

A: All things considered, the real issue here is, after a second glance at your code, the way you're setting the data property. Since PHP5, objects are passed/assigned by reference by default. Remember the PHP4 days? ($newInstance = &new SomeClass();), PHP5 uses references for objects now, so when you do:
$data = array(
    (object)array('name' => 'myname')//create object
);

Then, all three objects are assigned the same object (By reference!), so if you change it for the first time around, all three instances will reflect the same change!
I've recently posted a lengthy answer on references in loops here, it might be worth a look, because looping by reference isn't the best way to go about your business.
Some code-review:
Instead of constructing all these arrays, and cast them to objects individually, I'd just do this:
$data = array(
    array('name' => 'myname')
);
$posts = array(
    array('ID' => 1, 'data'=>$data),
    array('ID' => 2, 'data'=>$data),
    array('ID' => 3, 'data'=>$data)
);
foreach($posts as $k => $post)
{
    $posts[$k]['data'][0]['parentId'] = $posts[$k]['ID'];
}
$posts = json_decode(json_encode($posts));//turns everything into objects
print_r($posts);

At first, it might seem inefficient to json_encode something, just to json_decode it, but json_decode returns objects, instead of associative arrays by default. I've ran a few tests scripts not too long ago, as it turned out: the encode-decode approach was actually faster than casting each associative array...

A: Okay, i misunderstood your problem, due to the fact that you reuse the data object you end up with a reference problem, this can be avoided by using clone, as seen below
<?php

$data = (object) array('name' => 'myname');

$posts = array(
    (object) array('ID' => 1, 'data'=> array(clone $data)),
    (object) array('ID' => 2, 'data'=> array(clone $data)),
    (object) array('ID' => 3, 'data'=> array(clone $data))
);

foreach($posts as $postKey => $post){
    $posts[$postKey]->data[0]->parentId = $posts[$postKey]->ID;
}
print '<pre>';
print_r($posts);

Jeremiah Healy was an American detective mystery author best known for the "John Francis Cuddy" series of thrillers. Healy was a former military police captain and sheriff's officer. He went to Rutgers College and proceeded to Harvard, where he studied law and went on to practice and teach at the New England School of Law in Boston for nearly two decades. His debut novel was "Blunt Darts", which first came out in 1984. The lead in the novel was one of detective fiction's most favorite characters, John Francis Cuddy, a private investigator who plies his trade in Boston. Cuddy is violent though moral and honest man, who solves cases that the judicial system has failed to deal with. The character has made it into most of Healy's novels and collections short stories, fifteen of which have won or made the shortlist for the Shamus Award. With Healy achieving so much success in the genre, he served as International Association of Crime Writers President during the eighties, and headed the Private Eye Writers of America at one time. He has also been a chair of the Edgar and Shamus Award committees and been on the Mystery Writers of America National Board of Directors. He has also given speeches on crime mystery writing at the Boston Globe Book Festival, the Literature Series at the Smithsonian Institute, and the Sorbonne in Paris among several other conferences and workshops. Several of his novels have been translated into German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, and French. He committed suicide in 2014 after a long battle with alcoholism and clinical depression.
Jeremiah Healy first got into writing while he was a professor at the New England School of Law. Even as he loved the teaching profession, he knew that he needed to find a complement to his mundane life. As a teacher, he felt like a performer when he wanted to be a creator, who could sit by himself and come up with something that others could consume without needing him in the room. He started writing his first novel "Blunt Darts" during this time but found that the pressure of teaching combined with writing was taking a huge toll on him. While his mysteries were well-received and he had the rare privilege of having two careers, he had no life and knew he had to quit one if he was to become great at the other. Given that writing had more upside than teaching, which only depended on his experience as a trial lawyer, he quit to pursue a professional writing career. He had served as an MP Lieutenant before his lawyering and teaching days, and hence writing a thriller novel came easy to him. Even as he had never served overseas, he made his lead character a combination of his uncle who had been an insurance investigator and his father who just like him had served as an MP Captain during the Vietnam War. He made Cuddy a post-Vietnam War veteran as he needed to remedy the portrayal of a veteran as a mentally detective person, when in fact some vets successfully compartmentalized their experiences and went on to live normal lives.
John Francis Cuddy the lead in the series is a man of Irish roots that went to Holy Cross College, a Jesuit School where he got the foundations for his strong moral and ethical standards. He served as an MP in Vietnam before he came back to the United States, where he becomes a private investigator. His specialty is taking up cases that the bureaucratic justice system seems to have missed. His strong moral compass can be a hindrance as well as a driver in his work. Cuddy spends a lot of time at his wife's grave discussing his dilemmas and cases with her. In all the novels, Healy writes a careful combination of mean street elements with a whodunit, to provide insights into the Boston metropolis and the lead's stagnant relationship with the Assistant D.A. After he finished the Cuddy novels, he wrote "The Stalking Of Sheila Quinn" a standalone novel that featured a client that targeted his attorney. As Terry Devane, he wrote the "Mairead O'Clare" series between 2001 and 2003, and another 60 short stories that won him nine Shamus awards. The novels are tightly constructed and briskly paced novels with varied and rich characters, offering insights into a variety of professional and social environments.
"Blunt Darts" the first novel in the series is an explosive introduction to John Francis Cuddy the lead character of the John Francis Cuddy series of novels. Cuddy is a recently widowed Vietnam veteran who has just lost his job at the insurance company. He has set up on his own and opened his own private investigations firm, though he drinks too much for a man in his mid-thirties. Lately he has been getting his act together and has even got himself hired to find the missing fourteen-year-old grandson of a wealthy woman in the town. Initial investigations indicate that the boy may have run away rather than been kidnapped, given his experience in the woods and his reputation as a very smart boy. The young man has endured much trauma having lost his mother and uncle before spending some time in a mental health facility. Oddly, it seems no one care about the boys welfare with his father, a leading judge in the city more concerned with protecting his name rather than getting his son back safe. The judge is frustrating the case and has employed a fixer/bodyguard to ensure people like Cuddy do not make any headway.
"The Staked Goat" is an excellent novel that takes John Francis back to his days of serving as MP in Vietnam. During the war, he had been great friends with Al Sachs with whom he has patrolled the dangerous streets of Saigon. More than ten years later, he is a PI toughing it out on the mean back streets of Boston. He is rudely interrupted from a deep sleep when the phone starts ringing at 7 am. His old friend Sachs is on the other end of the line asking that they meet and catch up later in the evening. He accepts to go to the meet but Sachs never shows up. The next morning Cuddy gets Sachs's address and arrives at his place to find it crawling with police officers and paramedics. His friend's body had been found mangled and naked with the pinkie finger broken. Just then, he remembers that while in Saigon, Sachs used to say jokingly that he would crush his pinkie finger if he was ever captured by enemy agents, to let him know that his death was not accidental. He now needs to travel back to Vietnam and unearth a dark military conspiracy in a war that he thought was all but finished.


He caught my 30,000 pageviews on July '07. Yes, last year--and I barely got myself to finish it! Sorry, Brandon, but to make it up, instead of just providing the sketch as promised, I went ahead to ink and color it.

Uranium pentafluoride is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula UF5.  It is a pale yellow paramagnetic solid.  The compound has attracted interest because it is related to uranium hexafluoride, which is widely used to produce uranium fuel. It crystallizes in two polymorphs, called α- and β-UF5.

Synthesis and structure
Uranium pentafluoride is an intermediate in the conversion of uranium tetrafluoride to volatile UF6:
2UF4  +  F2  →  2UF5
2UF5  +  F2  →  2UF6

It can be produced by reduction of the hexafluoride with carbon monoxide at elevated temperatures.
 2UF6  +  CO   →  2UF5  +  COF2
Other reducing agents have been examined.

The α form is a linear coordination polymer consisting of chains of octahedral uranium centers in which one of the five fluoride anion forms a bridge to the next uranium atom.  The structure is reminiscent of that for vanadium pentafluoride.

In the β form, the uranium centers adopt a square antiprismatic structure. The β polymorph gradually converts to α at 130 °C.

Monomeric UF5
Of theoretical interest, molecular UF5 can be generated as a transient monomer by UV-photolysis of uranium hexafluoride. It is thought to adopt a square pyramidal geometry.

Component Racks & Cabinets – Island Sound & Video Systems, Inc.
The following pictures present some of the component racks and cabinets I have installed. Component "Racks" provide an excellent way to install the system components. They allow the home owner to have easy access to the components when needing to make changes or trouble-shoot system problems. Ideally, you want a design that will allow the rack to be "Pulled Out" and then "Rotated" to present the rear of the components. This allows for excellent cable management and ease of access. The cabinets should all have "Heat Management" systems if the system components are completely enclosed inside the cabinet. When racks are not desirable, the fixed cabinet should have access from the rear (removable panel, door, or other options) via the room/space behind the cabinet. This is an excellent reason for having a custom installer/integrator work with the architect to make such access available in the house drawings. My goal as a system designer/installer, is to install all of the components and not have any interconnect/power cables exposed to sight from the front of the rack/cabinet. Some of the pictures present the "Rough-in" phase of the installation, allowing you to see the cables before the system components were installed.
