Today I'd like to promote a great blogger, Tami at Tanglewood Tapestry, that features some great food, great writing, and my favorite, Scary Saturday. Scary Saturday is a weekly segment where Tami features true paranormal stories submitted by her followers. I have submitted some of my own personal experiences that have been showcased. I am super excited to see this segment grow so I can read all the wonderfully scary stories that are submitted. So if you have any great stories head on over there and submit them. I can't wait to read them!
This photograph has been re-enacted to represent true events. That is not the same crochet chain mentioned in the story. I made a new one because the old one was unraveled (to appease worried spouse), but the wrist pad and keyboard are one and the same.
Q: Did you experience this paranormal event or was this an occurrence that someone else experienced?
My husband experienced it but my son and I were involved as well.
Q: What type of paranormal event have you experienced (examples – spirits/ghosts, UFOs, monsters/weird creatures, etc)?
It's still a mystery but I would categorize it as a spirit/ghost event.
Something similar happened again some time later.
This happened in our house.
Q: Were you alone or did other people experience it too? If you were alone, have other people reported the same event in that location or during that time period?
My husband was in his office when he had the experience and my son and I were in our rooms.
My husband was working in his home office (upstairs). He stepped out to go do something (maybe go to the bathroom or the kitchen) but when he went back into his office, he came right back out and came straight into my office. He asked if I had gone into his office. I said I hadn't. He asked if I was sure. Of course I was sure. Naturally I asked why. He seemed agitated.
He said there was a string placed on his wrist pad near his computer that wasn't there when he stepped out.
"You know, one of your yarn things!" he said.
"You did it, right?" he asked.
I went to his office to look because I had no idea what he was talking about. I saw one of my crochet chains, made from a chunky, rainbow yarn, laid perfectly straight across his wrist pad in front of his keyboard. I told him that yes, that was mine but that last time I looked, that particular chain was downstairs because my students made it and I brought it home. But I did NOT put it in his office. He seemed relieved that at least it didn't appear out of nowhere. It had been in the house already. I don't know why that made him feel better but it did.
At this point, I started laughing because it was all so ridiculous. He immediately accused me of doing it as a joke because I was laughing so hard. I kept repeating that I hadn't done it but he wasn't convinced, which made me laugh harder. He asked my son if he did it and my son was more confused than I was and said no, he didn't. So we were back to me laughing. Now they both thought I did it as a joke. I kept telling them through hiccups of laughter that I didn't but the fact that they thought I did was even funnier. I stressed that that would have been the worst joke ever. Why on earth would I think placing a crochet chain on his wrist pad be funny? It turned out it was very funny but I was innocent! He started to skeptically believe me so he called my daughter, who no longer lives with us but still has a key to the house, if she came over and did this. I couldn't stop laughing. The thought of my daughter sneaking into the house, grabbing a chain that I had downstairs, and placing it on his desk like a present, had me in hysterics. And then she zipped out, all while we were home. Naturally, she said no, she had done no such thing.
He then went around the house looking for an intruder. Nope, there was no intruder. More laughter ensued (I couldn't help myself!).
I said it was our ghost messing with him and playing a joke. He didn't think THAT was funny at all. My son just thought it was all weird and thought maybe I did do it. We came up with theories on what could have happened. Maybe the chain got stuck to my husbands jacket when he brought something up from downstairs and it 'landed' on his wrist pad while he was working. The problem with that theory was that the chain was perfectly straight. There's no way it just fell that way. To this day, I believe he has doubts as to whether I did it but we just chalked it up to a mystery we may never solve.
Q: Are there any other details or related information that contributed to this event or that you believe are related to it?
Something similar happened a few months later. My husband has a favorite water bottle he takes to the gym with him. I don't usually interact with this bottle because he always has it.
One day, it was on the kitchen table so I decided to wash it. The whole time, I was wondering if I should dry it right away and put it back in his office. I ended up leaving it in the drying wrack and I forgot about it. My son puts the dishes away and I'm pretty sure he put it in the cupboard with the other water bottles. I vaguely remember thinking I shouldn't leave it there but it was just a fleeting thought.
The next day, my husband asked if I had seen his water bottle. He was on his way to the gym. I told him I thought our son put it in the cupboard. He said it wasn't there. He left and I looked too and it wasn't there. I thought maybe my son borrowed it. He said he hadn't because he knew it was dad's favorite and he has his own. Last he remembered, it was in the cupboard. My husband was annoyed it was misplaced but said it would turn up eventually. It didn't, so he went out and bought a new one.
About two weeks later, repeat the scenario from above. We were all in the same rooms. Hubby comes to my office again and asks me if I'm messing with him again. I started laughing again which made me look guilty…again. I asked what I did this time.
Apparently, while he was working, he turned around and saw his water bottle on the floor, as if someone rolled it in from the door. He insisted it wasn't there before because he would have had to step over to get to his desk. And the kicker was that it was wet inside as if it had been used. I know it was dry by the time my son put it away. It didn't smell dank either. It would have been if it had been wet since I washed it and was somehow lurking in his office all this time.
Repeat the same laughter and the same accusations about it being me. It wasn't. This time, through bouts of laughter, I accused him of forgetting he brought it up and left it on the floor all this time. I didn't really believe this. I find it hard to believe he didn't see his water bottle in the middle of the floor for weeks. Hey, turn about is fair play! After we were all convinced we were all innocent, we tried to come up with theories and just concluded we had another unsolvable mystery, but my theory was that the ghost did it.
A grateful thank you to Tami of Tanglewood Knots for nominating me for the Blogger Recognition Award. I humbly accept and truly appreciate it, especially since it's coming from a blogger I admire.
I was in the process writing a book. I wanted to start a blog about the book and my experience going through it. It's a crochet book about making crochet dolls and I was pretty proud of it. It was mostly done but I still needed to edit the thing and add pictures and what not. I got going on the blog and then froze up. I wasn't sure what I was going to write. Since the book was mostly done, I wasn't sure I wanted to write about that anymore. Instead, I focused on the crochet projects I was currently working on. Since then, I've found my blogging 'voice' and am happy with it's direction. I have to chuckle that the reason for the blog, i.e. writing about my book, never happened (at least not yet) but I found I enjoy the blogging experience very much.
My first piece of advice would be to take your blog seriously and post consistently. Set a realistic goal for yourself about how often you want to post and try to meet it. But also be flexible. It's ok to change your goal with more or less postings, but don't neglect it or forget about. In the beginning, I was worried I wouldn't have enough to write about. I set a goal for myself and most of the time I was able to meet it but there were times I didn't have anything to write about. By having a goal, it forced me to think about topics I could be posting about. The more consistent I became, the more I found I could write about. Now I have a queue of things waiting to be written about and trying to find the time to write them all.
My second piece of advice and one I wish I had started using sooner is to use the tools WordPress offers to help your blog be successful. They have excellent tips and tutorials that are very helpful. I Just recently discovered The Daily Post. It's a very good resource for bloggers. One of my favorite sections is the daily prompts. They provide a daily word to post about and you can link back to the prompt. I'm finding the prompts very helpful in stopping writers block. If I run out of ideas on what to write, I can always turn to the word of the day and connect to that community. The fun part is trying to make the word of the day work with the topic of crochet. More often than not, I can make it work. I don't do the daily prompt everyday but it's there when I need it.
I know that many of these blogs have already received this kind of recognition before so if you are on my list, you don't have to do anything. It just means I really enjoy your site.
Evelina Crafts: I love making crochet dolls and hers are beautiful. Looking at other peoples work is very inspiring for me. She makes really cute miniature crochet toys. So cute!
Kate Davies Designs: This one is about knitting and I don't knit but her work is amazing. Her husband is a photographer and his photos are simply stunning. It's definitely worth a look.
The Twisted Yarn: I love her sense of humor. Her work is fantastic and I'm always chuckling while I'm reading. As a bonus, she has fun giveaways all the time.
That Space in Between: If you like art, this is a really cool blog. I like seeing the work come to life. Looking at art inspires my crochet by inspiring me.
Coastal Crochet: I am so jealous that she lives near the coast but I love seeing how she incorporates her love of crochet with her love of the sea. Love it.
Lime Green Lady: There's some really cool crochet happing at this site.
By hook, by hand: This is one of the first blogs I ever fell in love with many years ago and helped me become a better crochet-doll maker. Her work inspired to keep working on my dolls. She has tons of free patterns and her dolls are beautiful. Truly worth checking out.
Honestly, there are so many excellent blogs and bloggers out there. Another piece of advice is to search out the ones you resonate with and become a part of the blogging community by interacting with others.

  }
}

A: In the rules object of your .eslintrc set "import/extensions" to never or 0 to avoid this.

A: You should check if you have eslint-plugin-import installed, Airbnb style guide configuration uses it to handle linting of imports and exports. If you don't have it, it results in the error Unable to resolve path to module '_module-name_' and/or Missing file extension for "_module-name_" (import/extensions).
Also since you have it installed in dev-dependencies, you can run something like ./node_modules/.bin/eslint . or setup eslint globally to just run eslint .

Summary of "Quantitative assessment of oligomeric amyloid beta peptide binding to alpha7 nicotinic receptor."
Progressive dysfunction of cholinergic transmission is a well-known characteristic of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide oligomers are known to play a central role in AD and are suggested to impair the function of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alpha 7 (α7nAChR). However, the mechanism underlying the effect of Aβ on α7nAChR function is not fully understood, limiting the therapeutic exploration of this observation in AD. Here we aimed to detect and characterize Aβ binding to α7nAChR, including the possibility of interfering with this interaction for therapeutic purposes.

Intro to UX is a day-long workshop introducing participants to fundamentals of designing useful, engaging and meaningful user experiences. The workshops starts with a lecture on the fundamentals of interactive design, which is followed by a series of hands-on exercises. Participants collaborate in interdisciplinary groups in order to answer a particular design challenge through multiple guided steps of the design process. During the workshop we employ various techniques of interaction design and D-school methodology to recognize the users, analyse their needs and goals, create a solution and construct a functional prototype which could be confronted with the final users.
The workshop is targeted to both university students and professionals, with their interest in design, technology, creative industry and arts. The class is a great way to empower creativity and integrate within the team.
Check the last edition of the UX Workshops here.
If you're interested in organising the workshop at your institution/company, please don't hesitate to contact us via e-mail.

In the ENKIS project, we are concerned with establishing a responsible usage of AI technologies and incorporating it into CS-related study programs at the Freie Universität Berlin. Thus, we have a pronounced focus on fostering 'critical reflection' among future professionals, scientists, and non-technical experts regarding existing approaches, limitations, and potentials in AI.
However, data science is challenging since complex concepts must be understood and executed. In recent years, more and more people from different fields have become interested in the advantages data science provides, like finding meaningful information in large amounts of data for making informed decisions. However, to practice data science currently, a lot of programming and mathematical knowledge is required, which makes it difficult for non-experts in these areas to engage with it. A possible solution is the abstraction of complex tasks using natural language commands. Conversational agents are programs that can understand and execute these commands and afterward can communicate the results with the user in an understandable manner during a conversation. There exists a plethora of conversational agents for a variety of problem domains [1][2][3][4]. The IRIS conversational agent is particularly interesting to this thesis, which can perform open-ended complex data science tasks by combining commands through nested conversations [5]. While the research of Fast et al. on the conversational agent shows that data scientists can perform comparable tasks faster using IRIS, the problem remains that these agents don't reside where the data scientists are primarily working inside Jupyter Notebooks [6]. This situation limits the conversational agents' use cases, as the data processing and analysis are happening in different places. Moreover, the transfer of resources between these two makes it cumbersome for the users. Therefore, the conversational agents should be built to neatly integrate into the data science workflow and not require the users to switch contexts while working on the same task.
Another problem is the widespread use of black-box models in the data science practice, which make it difficult for the practitioners and the people affected by the model's decisions to comprehend the predictions. Using assistance tools, like conversational agents, it becomes easier to deploy them by abstracting the task of building these complex models from scratch. The recent emergence of Explainable AI (XAI) methods tries to mitigate this by explaining how the models reach their predictions. However, research showed that even data science experts have trouble comprehending these explanations [7]. Conversational agents have the advantage that they can engage with the users to try to find the best explanations for them and the context they are working in. They also slow the process down to allow the practitioners to critically reflect on what they are trying to achieve or encourage them to do that, which may lead to a more responsible data science practice.
This thesis aims to help data science practitioners (or those who wish to be) in their practice, often done inside Jupyter Notebooks. The support should be achieved using a purpose-built conversational agent. For this thesis, a conversational agent should be implemented that can directly interact with the user where the data science work takes place, inside the notebook itself. The agent should help users with data science and machine learning tasks, similar to the IRIS conversational agent [5]. Furthermore, explanations should be provided for the used ML models. Finally, practitioners interacting with the agent should be encouraged to establish a reflective and responsible practice. Using reflection prompts, users should slow down and reflect on their actions and results and consider their impacts on people directly or indirectly affected by them.
Port the IRIS conversational agent [5] to a Jupyter Notebook extension or create a new conversational agent based on it.
Allow users to interact with the conversational agent using the notebooks' cells (like seen in this YouTube video [8]) or by other appropriate means, e.g., an additional interface.
Research XAI methods and extend the conversational agent with the ability to generate explanations for model predictions.
Research reflection prompts and expands the conversational agent's capabilities by encouraging the users to reflect on their practice.
Evaluate the conversational agent prototype in a user study.

Serbia PHOTO » Educations » What the landscape photogaphy actually is?
It represented a segment of nature that could be taken in at a glance, from a single point of view, and encompassed the land as well as animals, buildings, and people.
Going back in history, landscapes were originally used primarily to fill in the blank space behind a person or scene by painters, and other artists.
However as art and photography has evolved, the "background" was seen to have artistic value in and of itself. Today, landscape photography is a very popular pursuit.
These days, almost everyone carries a camera. From the small pocket digital cameras, to dSLR cameras, to smart phones. It is now essentially free to take as many photos as you want, and you can view them immediately. These changes in photography have meant that we are now flooded with images on social media, television and in advertising.
Is every "happy snap" taken of the landscape, by default, a landscape photo? I would argue that it is not.
In trying to answer the question, "what is landscape photography", I came across many possible definitions including "the branch of photography dealing with the representation of natural scenery" to "photos of pretty much anything as long as it's outside"!
A good landscape picture should make a connection with the viewer, and tell you a story. A good landscape picture will have you finding interesting details in the photo for several months after you first see it.
The skill is to entertain the viewer within the singular moment of the photo. Capturing the instant in time, and preserving it forever, can make it into something amazing.
It can remind you of a certain location, a certain point in time, or a period of your life.
Landscape photography is not purely about taking yourself to beautiful locations- in fact the real skill comes from finding the beauty in everyday life.
I came across a quote that I liked by Eliot Porter, an American nature photographer- "All the cycles of life are beautiful." This quote rings true to the landscape photographer, as you search for the "special parts" in life around you.
Many great landscape photos have been taken in places that would not usually be considered beautiful- by choosing what to include or exclude, and bringing your own unique perspective, you can choose the scene that best represents your creative vision.
It all comes together when you push the camera shutter and the photo reveals something special and spectacular.
Another aspect of landscape photography is to share the feelings that come with these incredible moments in time. It is one thing to be able to see these amazing things yourself, it is quite another to be able to share them with others.
The final purpose that I will talk about is the ability to remind people of nature, and the natural world. In our current lives it is easy to run out of time to stop and smell the roses. It is common to get caught in your own busy world and lose track of the outside world.
Landscape photography should remind you of that connection we all have to the land, and remind you to stop every so often, to take a big breath, and be aware.
Landscape pictures can also show both the strength and the fragility of nature- the volatile beauty of the wilderness and the earth that needs to be protected.
The act of photography intensifies ones visual experience.
What is NOT landscape photography?
Landscape photography is not photojournalism, it is not a not documentary, its aim is not necessarily to capture scenes in their ordinary state. Most of the time, we actually wait for the conditions that transform the ordinary into the extraordinary.
Landscape photography can be challenging- it is all about working within the fixed constraints of the land. You do not have the aids of sound and music like in video and cinema. You must exist within the natural world (unlike painters who have some leeway), and you do not have studio lighting to help you get the best detail from every shot.
Add to this you need to try and capture a dynamic scene in a static medium, and create depth with two dimensions.
However, landscape photography is an addictive pursuit- every time that the light is inadequate, the wind too strong or the tourists in your way- makes the moments when it all comes together even more special!

A multi-lingual insult generator, which takes pluggable backends to generate insults in the language of your choice, written in honour of International Talk Like A Pirate Day on Sept 19th 2003 http://www.talklikeapirate.com/. An example backend is provided which implements the 'pirate' language.
Usage is very simple. Instantiate an Acme::Scurvy::Whoreson::BilgeRat object, passing a single named parameter - 'language' - to the constructor. This tells it to use the A::S::W::B::Backend::[language] plugin module. If that is missing, we assume you want the 'pirate' backend.
To generate an insult, simply mention your object in any place where it will be turned into a string. It uses the AWESOME POWER of operator overloading to achieve this heroic feat.
So, on to the most complex part of all this, which thankfully isn't that complex.
A reference to a list of strings, each of which is a grammar describing a valid way of constructing an insult, and may consist of the letters 'A' and 'N'. A grammar is chosen at random when we generate an insult. For each part of the grammar, a random adjective is chosen for each 'A' and a random noun is chosen for each 'N'.
You may have words appearing in both the nouns and the adjectives lists. The default insult generator will ensure that it never uses the same word twice in any one insult. Of course, there are some situations where there are simply not enough nouns or adjectives in the grammar, in which case an empty insult is generated.
In many cases, the default insult generator won't be sufficient for your language, as you may need to decline your nouns and adjectives or do other weird and wonderful manipulations. In this case, you need to override the generateinsult() method. This is a bog-standard method, which will be called with exactly one parameter - a reference to the object. You must return a string from this method. How you generate that string is entirely up to you, and you may need to do something different from what I have described above in the constructor. The only limitation on the constructor for a backend is that it *must* return something that inherits from A::S::W::B, and it will not be supplied with any parameters at all other than its own class name.
See the A::S::W::B::Backend::pirate module for an example.
No bugs are known, but if you find any please let me know, and send a test case and - if possible - a patch.
I welcome feedback about my code, including constructive criticism. And, while this is free software (both free-as-in-beer and free-as-in-speech) I also welcome payment. In particular, your bug reports will get moved to the front of the queue if you buy me something from my wishlist, which can be found at http://www.cantrell.org.uk/david/shopping-list/wishlist.
This module is free-as-in-speech software, and may be used, distributed, and modified under the same terms as Perl itself.

Boca Raton Communities /
Addison Mizner designed neighborhood featuring classic Boca Raton houses for sale. The unique and historic neighborhood of Old Floresta was originally established in the mid 1920's by celebrated society architect Addison Mizner, whose picturesque Spanish Mediterranean designs defined the city's signature style that endures to this day. Part of his plan to attract new residents to Boca Raton, Mizner's vision called for a neighborhood that would also house the executives and directors of his development company, and would be constructed by the firm building his glamorous masterpiece, the Cloister Inn, now the world-renowned landmark Boca Raton Resort. Named "Floresta" ("a delightful rural place"), the neighborhood took shape on lush tree-lined streets evocatively named for flowering plants, with charming Mediterranean-style residences adorned with rustic stucco walls, beautiful wrought iron balconies, barrel tile roofs, and groomed tropical landscaping. Today, Old Floresta maintains the alluring charm of yesteryear and pays tribute to its rich history, preserving many of the original Mizner-designed residences, and was designated Boca Raton's first Historic District in 1990. Old Floresta holds special appeal as a uniquely distinctive and desirable address, located in the heart of Boca Raton, only minutes away from Mizner Park's world-class shopping and dining, the Boca Raton Resort and Club, pristine Atlantic ocean beaches and Boca Raton's private executive airport.

The Growing Risks of Digital Advertising, and How Brands are Fighting Back
More than half of U.S. advertising dollars are set to be spent on digital platforms such as Google and Facebook for the first time ever, and as always, malicious actors know where the money is.
Free Book Preview: Ultimate Guide to Google Ads
Get a glimpse of how Google's marketing resources and strategies can help you grow your business's digital reach.
It's no secret the pandemic that has banished us into the depths of our homes to share the company of our Netflix and our phones, spurring a digital boom. Though advertising suffered a temporary setback due to the initial, lockdown-induced economic shock, more than half of advertising dollars in the U.S. are set to be spent on digital platforms such as Google and Facebook for the first time ever. And, as always, malicious actors know where the money is.
This rise in digital advertising spending has heightened the need for security, as fraudsters attempt to steal chunks of the growing digital pie. Not all advertising campaigns are reaching their intended audiences, or even humans for that matter, and even fewer ad agencies have the capacity to quell fraud attacks or the resulting damage. Some companies, however, are finding innovative ways to keep the bad guys away.
Ad fraud is not exactly a new phenomenon. It dates back to as early as 1998, when the pay-per-click advertising model (PPC) was pioneered by goto.com, allowing businesses to pay to appear at the top of the search engine results for certain keywords. After Google established itself as the alpha search engine around the same time, it quickly recognized the potential of the PPC model as a means of monetization through syndication. It wasn't long before fraudsters began exploring ways to capitalize on this fledgling new model.

But it was the emergence of bots that quickly became the most potent ad-fraud threat, as more advertising campaigns started going digital. Imperva's Bad Bot report estimates bots account for approximately 45% of all web traffic.
As platforms began to develop more resolute safeguards, the fraudsters upped their game. In their assaults on ad platforms, they employed new and sophisticated methods to carry out attacks through account hijacking, web scraping, acquiring of private financial data and distributed denial-of-service attacks (DDoS), where the perpetrator is able to render a user's machine or network resource unavailable to its intended user. Bad bots like these are employed to persistently click on ads automatically, draining billions in advertising spend within digital PPC campaigns.
Losses from digital ad fraud have now overtaken global annual credit card fraud ($27 billion), amounting to $35 billion according to Cheq, despite the fact that only $333 billion was spent on digital advertising in 2020, compared with $3.32 trillion in the credit card sector.
To prevent such unnecessary costs and assaults on its service, New York-based Aniview, which provides customizable ad units alongside real-time yield optimization, is tackling the multi-pronged exploits of fraudsters with a multi-layered approach. Its end-to-end ad-serving solution includes a proprietary and patented video ad-player, mobile apps SDK, seamless header bidding integration, a high-performance ad-server, marketplace, CTV/OTT dynamic auction and SSAI. And to prevent malicious bots from taking advantage of its platform, Aniview recently teamed up with White Ops, a leading bot mitigation platform, by fully integrating its technology to fend off bot attacks.
Then there's Israel-based marketing user-acquisition and engagement platform Zoomd, which has also noted the rise in fraud attacks firsthand in the previous months. "In the last year, we have identified a steep growth in fraud actions and attempts," says Omri Argaman, CMO of Zoomd. "Ad fraud brings with it not only the financial fraud itself, but also drains resources, both human and technical, to identify threats."
The company's platform is integrated to hundreds of media sources, offering advertisers user acquisition and retention campaigns under one solution. By letting advertisers manage all user-acquisition campaigns on these premium sources under one screen, bad guys are easier to spot.

From measuring viewability to fighting ad fraud, technology within brand safety has moved quickly in a short space of time, but the human element remains pivotal. Ensuring awareness and building a community of providers legitimately committed to brand safety will require a genuine push towards brand integrity in the ecosystem. This cultivation of ad integrity will act as the most crucial building of trust in the digital advertising industry.

Q: vue js trigger other component method my files looks like this
./components/UserCreate.vue
./components/UserList.vue
./main.js

my vue instance in main.js
new Vue({
  el: '#user-operations',
  components: {
      CreateUser,
      UserList
  }
});

index.html

  <create-user></create-user>
  <user-list></user-list>
</div

I want to trigger userList() method in UserList.vue when createUser() method in CreateUser.vue is triggered. Or how can i pass last_user property to UserList component from CreateUser.vue for append.
here is my create-user component [working]
https://jsfiddle.net/epp9y6vs/
here is my user-list component [working]
https://jsfiddle.net/ore3unws/
so i want the last user to be listed when createUser() is triggered

A: I recommend to create a service with all the methods operating user entities. It will separate your Components from the implementaton of the logic which is good because:

*

*The Components doesn't have to know which calls they have to do to servers to retrieve data - it's better to use abstraction level

*The Component will be lighter and easier for reuse

*You will be able to use this logic (from the service) in several Components - exactly your problem

You have several ways to implement services:

*

*Stateless service: then you should use mixins

*Statefull service: use Vuex

*Export service and import from a vue code

*any javascript global object

I prefer (4). Here is an example how to do it:
In file /services/UsersService that will describe your service put all the relevant methods and expose them with export:
import axios from 'axios'

export default {
  get() {
    return axios.get('/api/posts)
  }
}

Then in any Component that needs this methods import this service:
import UsersService from '../services/UsersService'

export default {
  data() {
   return {
     items: []
   }
  },
  created() {
   this.fetchUsers()
  },
  methods: {
   fetchUsers() {
    return UsersService.get()
      .then(response => {
        this.items = response.data
      })
   }
  }
}

Find even more about it in this question:
What's the equivalent of Angular Service in VueJS?
This solution is much better than using this.$parent.$refs.userList which suppose that this components will always stay "brothers" (will have the same parent).

A: *

*You can trigger userList in CreateUser.vue by this code:
this.$parent.$refs.userList.userList()
and change your index.html:

  <create-user></create-user>
  <user-list :ref="userList"></user-list>

*You can create last_user property in main.js then pass it to 2 components:

.

  <create-user:lastUser="last_user"></create-user>
  <user-list :lastUser="last_user"></user-list>

Today we were invited by Nike Toronto to check out their 'Site 97′ exhibit in Parkdale, to go along with the launch of the brand spankin' new Air Max 97 Ultra. When we arrived at the address, we were greeted by a garage door branded with a massive "97" decal – and that's how we knew we were at the right place.
When you enter the space, you are immediately drawn to a huge installation featuring dozens and dozens of the new Air Max model. The space was curated by four designers and artists who were tasked with creating a space that was inspired the Air Max 97 Ultra, but also pays tribute to the history of the original Air Max 97.
The concept that the creators came up with was a conveyer belt-type set up; where on one side, the original 97's are entering the machine, and on the other, the new 97 Ultra emerges. The display wall which offers for a massive focal point was described as the shelves where a scientist would place his new creations upon completion.
On the walls opposite of the larger display there were two smaller art pieces. These pieces were meant to symbolize the smaller details surrounding the sneakers. Each piece is composed of multiple layers, that can be rearranged and moved – showing the freedom with which an individual can interpret both the art, and the sneakers that the art is representing. Along the ground there is bright orange tape stemming away from each of these creations, and leads to the larger centrepiece. This was meant to show how these smaller details were fuelling or giving life to the larger picture.
The space is both bustling but also very simplistic and minimalistic. The artists from FM Founders did an outstanding job. On our way out we were each gifted with a pair of Air Max 97 Ultras, so look for a full review and some detailed photos soon. And finally, thanks as always to our Nike Toronto family.

Postnuptial agreements are increasing in popularity
July 15, 2014 by BrasierLaw Leave a Comment
On a recent episode of the popular TV drama "Grey's Anatomy," the character "Catherine" confronts "April" her new on-screen daughter-in-law. Catherine is furious over her son and April's surprise wedding. Believing that her son made an awful mistake, Catherine thrusts a document in front of April commenting that it is fortunate that postnuptial agreements were designed "for moments like this."
Heidi Klum and Seal reportedly had a postnuptial agreement encompassing property distribution in the event of a divorce. However, one does not have to be rich or famous to contemplate a postnup. Indeed, the Daily Beast reports that postnuptial agreements are growing in popularity among all income brackets and continue to gain mainstream acceptance.
Postnuptial and prenuptial agreements are similar in that a couple is attempting to bring certainty to their future financial situation. The key difference is that prenuptial agreements are made before marriage while postnuptial agreements are entered into after marriage.
While a variety of agreements have been referred to as being postnuptial contracts, postnups are increasingly geared toward settling the disposition of marital property upon a separation or divorce. It is in this regard that the postnup is a relatively new phenomenon.
Postnuptial agreements have traditionally been regarded with suspicion by the courts thereby making them somewhat more difficult to enforce than prenuptial agreements. According to an American Bar Association newsletter, a postnuptial agreement is harder to enforce than a prenup "because once married, a couple has a fiduciary duty to care for one another in all ways." Therefore, while courts have tended to assume that a prenuptial agreement is valid, they often have the opposite reaction to a postnuptial agreement.
Postnuptial agreements in Oregon
Oregon has a specific statutory scheme governing prenuptial agreements. In stark contrast there are no similar Oregon statutes governing postnuptial agreements.
The 2005 Oregon Supreme Court decision of In re Marriage of Grossmaninvolved a postnuptial agreement. In its discussion, the court made it abundantly clear that it would not treat postnuptial agreements as if they were prenuptial agreements. The court observed that the Uniform Premarital Agreement Act adopted by the legislature specifically provides that prenups that meet statutory requirements are enforceable. By contrast, the legislature has not adopted a similar statutory scheme governing postnuptial agreements. Grossman gives every indication that postnuptial agreements will be subject to a greater degree of scrutiny than prenuptial agreements.
The Oregon courts have previously enforced certain types of postnuptial agreements. However, given that there is no statutory framework governing postnuptial agreements in Oregon, great caution should be exercised when executing a postnup that undertakes financial planning in anticipation of a divorce. Without any doubt, to be enforceable, a postnup would need to be fair and the parties should make a full, honest and frank disclosure of their financial situation to each other. Keep in mind that, assuming there is no enforceable prenuptial agreement, Oregon law requires that marital distribution occur in a manner that is "just and proper in all circumstances."
Drafting a prenuptial agreement that is enforceable in Oregon
If you think that a postnuptial agreement might bring some certainty to your financial situation following a divorce, you should contact an attorney skilled in handling family law matters. Given the lack of statutory guidance for postnuptial agreements in Oregon, it is highly advisable that an attorney who is skilled in financial planning assist you in determining how to best protect your assets following a divorce.

› Recover As You Sleep
Recover As You Sleep
Original article: FLEX
Q: Sometimes I have trouble sleeping at night on training days, particularly when I train heavy in the late afternoon. What can you recommend to help me sleep better?
A: Train hard, eat well, get plenty of rest and sleep. That's the formula for training success and getting huge, right? It's not uncommon to lose sleep at night because you kicked ass in the gym a few hours earlier. Sleeplessness is a big problem, especially if you have to work in the morning. Taking ZMA™ - a patent-pending combination of zinc aspartate, magnesium aspartate and vitamin B6 - may help you overcome this problem and deficiencies in those micronutrients.
Micronutrients greatly influence anabolic hormone levels and the ability to gain lean mass and strength. Several recent studies have raised questions about the effects of training hard and consuming a so-called well-balanced diet. They highlight the potential benefits of specialized supplementation.
Even if you're eating well, it's possible you're not getting all the micronutrients you need. Zinc and magnesium are two minerals often depleted in athletes due to rigorous exercise (A. Singh et al., "Magnesium, zinc, and copper status of U.S. Navy SEAL trainees," American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 49:695-700, April 1989). Furthermore, zinc and magnesium are poorly absorbed when taken with food or supplements containing calcium. As a result, zinc and magnesium are two minerals requiring special attention by athletes and people who supplement with calcium.
Research indicates that zinc deficiency often results in low serum testosterone and growth factor (IGF-1) levels in athletes, and in increased serum estrogen and compromised androgen receptor activity. Intense exercise has been shown to adversely affect sleep in fit people, including trained powerlifters (I. Montgomery et al., "Physical exercise and sleep: the effect of the age and sex of the subjects and type of exercise," Acta Physiologica Scandinavica (Supplement), 574:36-40, 1998). Evidence suggests that magnesium significantly improves sleep efficiency and restores exercise tolerance that is decreased by sleep deprivation (M. Hornyak et al., "Magnesium therapy for periodic leg movements-related insomnia and restless legs syndrome: an open pilot study," Sleep, 21[5]:501-5, August 1998; and K. Tanabe et al., "Efficacy of oral magnesium administration on decreased exercise tolerance in a state of chronic sleep deprivation." Japanese Circulation Journal, 62[5]:341-6, May 1998).
Enter ZMA. Scientific evidence has demonstrated its effectiveness in increasing anabolic hormone levels, including free testosterone and IGF-1 - hormones that may otherwise be suppressed in hard-training athletes.
In one randomized study of ZMA. a group of 12 NCAA football players took ZMA nightly during an eight-week spring-training program; a group of 15 other players received a placebo. In the ZMA subjects, both free-and total-testosterone levels increased by more than 30- testosterone levels in the placebo group declined approximately 10. IGF-I increased by 3.6 in the ZMA athletes; it decreased by 21.5 in the placebo group (L.R. Brilla and V. Conte, "A novel zinc and magnesium formulation [ZMA] increases anabolic hormones and strength in athletes," Sports Medicine, Training and Rehabilitation Journal, in press. November 1998.
In addition to improvements in anabolic hormone levels, the ZMA athletes made significant gains in strength and power (L.R. Brilla and V. Conte. "Effects of zinc-magnesium [ZMA] supplementation on muscle attributes of football players," Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 31[5]:Supplement 123. Abstract 483, May 1999).

Q: Iterate over an array of divs I've had to resort to this bodge to set height of div01-05 different to div11-15 :(
var maxheight = divheight;
var dayofweek = <?echo date("w",strtotime($today));?>;
var heightoffset = (2 - dayofweek) * 40;

var days = jQuery('div.day01, div.day02, div.day03, div.day04, div.day05');
for (i=0; i<days.length; i++){
    var hh = jQuery(days[i]).prop("scrollHeight");
    if (hh > maxheight) {
        maxheight = hh;
    };
    jQuery(days[i]).height(divheight+heightoffset);
};

var days = jQuery('div.day11, div.day12, div.day13, div.day14, div.day15');
for (i=0; i<days.length; i++){
    var hh = jQuery(days[i]).prop("scrollHeight");
    if (hh > maxheight) {
        maxheight = hh;
    };
    jQuery(days[i]).height(divheight-heightoffset);
};

//Back to full array for further processing
var days = jQuery('div.day01, div.day02, div.day03, div.day04, div.day05, div.day11, div.day12, div.day13, div.day14, div.day15');

Would someone please put me out of my misery and show me how to just iterate over all the divs and do a conditional set height.
One caveat is that PHP is greating the divs and div.day01 -04 might not exists depending on day of the week div.day05 always does and so do divs day11-15
regards
Simon
Final code result(having corrected to using ids instead of classes :)
    jQuery('div[id^="day"]').each(function() {
        var hh = jQuery(this).prop("scrollHeight");
        if (hh > maxheight) {maxheight = hh;};
        var cn = jQuery(this).attr('id').split(" ")[0]; // Since PHP is creating these classes, we can safely assume "day" will always be the first.
        var num = parseInt(cn.slice(-2),10); // extract the last two characters and convert to an integer
        if (num >=1 && num <= 5) {
            jQuery(this).height(divheight+heightoffset);
        }else if(num >=10 && num <= 15){
            jQuery(this).height(divheight-heightoffset);
        }
    });

A: $('div[class^="day"]').each(function() {
  var cn = $(this).attr('class').split(" ")[0]; // Since PHP is creating these classes, we can safely assume "day" will always be the first.
  var num = parseInt(cn.slice(-2),10); // extract the last two characters and convert to an integer
  if (num >=1 && num <= 5) {
    // Working with div 01-05
  }else if(num >=10 && num <= 15){
    // Working with div 11-15
  }
});

A: To iterate over all divs on the page, use
jQuery('div').each(function(d) {
    //This code will run for each div on the page
    //Just put any conditionals in here
    //Use jQuery(this) to refer to the current div
});

EDIT:
Use jQuery(this).attr('name') to access the name of the current element.
Use jQuery(this).attr('id') to access the id of the current element.
Use jQuery(this).hasClass('classname') (boolean) to check if the current element has the indicated class.

A: You can use $('div') to loop through every div on the page, then use a regex to get just the divs you want.  You can even limit the divs jQuery loops over using [class*="day"].
$('div[class*="day"]').each(function(){
   var dayClass = this.className.match(/day\d*/);
   if(dayClass != null){ // if the div contains the class day..
     var dayID = dayClass[0].replace('day', ''); // 01, 02, 03, etc.
     if(dayID >=1 && dayID <= 5){
     }
     else if(dayID >= 11 && dayID <= 15){
     }
     else{
     }
   }
});

Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/9kxSF/1/
A better idea here would be to give all the divs a class of say "dayDiv", as well was the "day01" or "day02" class, so then you could do $('div.dayDiv') to get the divs you wanted.

Then in jQuery:
$('div.dayDiv').each(function(){
    var dayClass = this.className.match(/day\d*/);
    var dayID = dayClass[0].replace('day', ''); // 01, 02, 03, etc.
    if(dayID >=1 && dayID <= 5){
    }
    else if(dayID >= 11 && dayID <= 15){
    }
    else{
    }
});


So, firstly, you should know that I love a good YA Novel.
I loved YA growing up, of course, but my love for it returned when i became a teacher. See, ! remebered reading these great, compelling Young Adult novels when I was an actual Young Adult, and desperately waiting to talk to someone about them. Anyone. Really. None of my friends were bookworms like me, and my teachers sure as heck weren't discussing anything that wasn't on our super old school reading list.
Midway through my first year teaching in New York City, I spotted a student reading a book on the hallway floor during my school's lunch block. I asked what that student was reading, and invited them to sit in my classroom to read each day. Within a week a handful of bookworms were reading and chatting in my classroom during lunch and sometimes during extended day. I asked them all what they were reading, and made a point to read some of their favorite books during my long commute on the M15 Uptown bus each morning.
By the end of that year I'd convinced our school to let me read The Hunger Games with our sub-separate Special Ed 11th Grade English class, and I'd found myself a bookclub comprised of other grown women who enjoyed YA Fiction.
So I'm a little bit of an expert. Well, expert-ish.
I recently finished the beautiful Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon. This Novel is about to become a movie starring the fabulous Amandla Stenberg, which I am also excited about.
The novel centers around an 18-year-old girl who has spent most of her life trapped within the confines of her home due to a rare autoimmune disorder that makes it challenging for her body to fight off infections and viruses. Maddy is smart and sweet and exactly the type of young lady all teachers want in their classroom. She's a great narrator, and when the ever-lovable, manic-pixie-dream-boy Olly moves in next door, her slow movement from infatuation to love is absolutely compelling to read. Olly isn't just a MPDB, though; his family has a complicated backstory and he's got his own challenges, thoughts, and charming sense of humor.
The plot moves at a great pace, and before you know it Olly and Maddy are running off to Hawaii together, pushing the limits of Maddy's medical reality and experiencing a whole new world (pardon the cliche). While there are the typical over-romanticized teen lovey-dovey moments, there's also an ongoing undercurrent of real, relatable conflict. Both Olly and Maddy need to recognize and accept their parent's flaws in order to move forward into adulthood, which is such a real and relatable issue. It was this part of the story, the family plotline, that made this book what it is. Teen romances are a dime a dozen, but YA novels that portray parents making (big) mistakes and then turn around and preach humility, forgiveness, and patience are rare, indeed.
This book definitely brought back echoes of John Green's The Fault in Our Stars at times, but was different enough that it felt creative and refreshing. I wouldn't say it's on the exact same level as TFIOS, but it's close. I seriously couldn't stop reading once I got into it!
So, if you're at all into the YA world, give this book a shot:) You won't be disappointed!
