After getting back to the mainland from Alcatraz Island we decided to pay a visit to the piers and of course Fisherman's Wharf. And as stated, many wonderful and interesting sights in San Francisco were waiting for us!
We walked down the Embarcadero to Pier 39, had some overpriced ice cream and peeked into the little stores around us. We also got to see the sea lions in the harbor! They were warming themselves in the sunshine and playing or fighting, it was really fascinating to see them.
There was also a puzzle store that I wanted to visit, just to see what kind of puzzles they had. They display a number of wood puzzles which were interesting but very hard to solve. My boyfriend is a very ambitious type however, so we spent quite some time in the store while he and his friend were trying to solve at least one puzzle.
Weird, interesting and funny stuff, all of them at the Musée Mécanique af the Fisherman's Wharf. This place displays arcade and mechanical games from the beginning of the 20th century to today.
Such funny games, like How good a kisser are you? (with answers ranging from frog to Prince Charming) and you had to put your lips into these oversized plastic lips. Seriously though, not very hygienic!
Some of the mechanical games were quite creepy though, mostly because I hate dolls that move, that creeps me out like nothing else.
On our way to the bus that would take us to the most famous street in San Francisco, Lombard Street, we passed a chili store. It had lots and lots of chili sauces and dips and just everything chili. They offered tortillas to taste all their sauces. Of course we/I couldn't just pass this opportunity.
I tried all of the sauces labeled with three X's or skulls, it was amazing. They had jalapeno jelly! Very tasty!
Finally we arrived at Lombard Street and even with good timing. The sun was just setting so we had a wonderful sunset accompanying our picture taking frenzy.
It was too bad though that the hydrangea were not in bloom yet, I would have loved to see them in bloom.
After we took the last picture we went back to Fisherman's Wharf to find us some dinner. There was a place I had picked out on foursquare but apparently it was closed down because we couldn't find it. So we got dinner from a small truck called The Codmother Fish and Chips, which was pretty good.
We hadn't gone out for drinks at all because we were so busy sightseeing or hiking or walking during the days that we were usually too exhausted in the evenings.
So we decided to go for a drink at least once in San Francisco and picked a placed called The Boardroom. This place looks like nothing from the outside, but once inside there are TVs everywhere, showing all kinds of sports channels, a long bar with an impressive array of alcoholic beverages on the wall behind it, a surf board on another wall and a very friendly and helpful barkeeper as well.
If you are in San Francisco, want to go out for a drink and don't know where, go and find The Boardroom. The barkeeper is super friendly and will mix up any long drink you'd like. The prices are pretty fair as well.
We relaxed with our drinks in one of the booths and brought this very eventful day to a close with a Moscow Mule.


Although Santa Claus/Father Christmas is the best known Christmas gift bringer, there are many different present givers in different countries around the world. Santa's also called different things in different countries! Here are some of them!
If you know anymore, please contact us!
Spain: Los tres Reyes Mages (The Three Magic King / Magi) & Papá Noel (Father Christmas); in Catalonia the gift bringer is Tió de Nadal, a Christmas log with a face on it!; In the Basque country, the gift bringer is Olentzero, a big man who wears a beret and smokes a pipe.

Q: Deep copy of List I'm trying to make a deep copy of a generic list, and am wondering if there is any other way then creating the copying method and actually copying over each member one at a time. I have a class that looks somewhat like this:
public class Data
{
    private string comment;
    public string Comment
    {
        get { return comment; }
        set { comment = value; }
    }

    private List<double> traceData;
    public List<double> TraceData
    {
        get { return traceData; }
        set { traceData = value; }
    }
}

And I have a list of the above data, i.e List<Data>. What I'm trying to do is plot a trace data of the subset of List onto a graph, possibly with some scaling or sweeping on the data. I obviously don't need to plot everything in the list because they don't fit into the screen.
I initially tried getting the subset of the list using the List.GetRange() method, but it seems that the underneath List<double> is being shallow copied instead of deep copied. When I get the subset again using List.GetRange(), I get previously modified data, not the raw data retrieved elsewhere.
Can anyone give me a direction on how to approach this? Thanks a lot.

A: You can try this
    public static object DeepCopy(object obj)
    {
        if (obj == null)
            return null;
        Type type = obj.GetType();

        if (type.IsValueType || type == typeof(string))
        {
            return obj;
        }
        else if (type.IsArray)
        {
            Type elementType = Type.GetType(
                 type.FullName.Replace("[]", string.Empty));
            var array = obj as Array;
            Array copied = Array.CreateInstance(elementType, array.Length);
            for (int i = 0; i < array.Length; i++)
            {
                copied.SetValue(DeepCopy(array.GetValue(i)), i);
            }
            return Convert.ChangeType(copied, obj.GetType());
        }
        else if (type.IsClass)
        {

            object toret = Activator.CreateInstance(obj.GetType());
            FieldInfo[] fields = type.GetFields(BindingFlags.Public |
                        BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance);
            foreach (FieldInfo field in fields)
            {
                object fieldValue = field.GetValue(obj);
                if (fieldValue == null)
                    continue;
                field.SetValue(toret, DeepCopy(fieldValue));
            }
            return toret;
        }
        else
            throw new ArgumentException("Unknown type");
    }

Thanks to DetoX83 article on code project.

A: If IClonable way is too tricky for you. I suggest converting to something and back. It can be done with BinaryFormatter or a Json Converter like Servicestack.Text since it is the fastest one in .Net.
Code should be something like this:
MyClass mc = new MyClass();
string json = mc.ToJson();
MyClass mcCloned = json.FromJson<MyClass>();

mcCloned will not reference mc.

A: The most easiest (but dirty) way is to implement ICloneable by your class and use next extension method:
public static IEnumerable<T> Clone<T>(this IEnumerable<T> collection) where T : ICloneable
{
    return collection.Select(item => (T)item.Clone());
}

Usage:
var list = new List<Data> { new Data { Comment = "comment", TraceData = new List { 1, 2, 3 } };
var newList = list.Clone();

A: The idiomatic way to approach this in C# is to implement ICloneable on your Data, and write a Clone method that does the deep copy (and then presumably a Enumerable.CloneRange method that can clone part of your list at once.) There isn't any built-in trick or framework method to make it easier than that.
Unless memory and performance are a real concern, I suggest that you try hard to redesign it to operate on immutable Data objects, though, instead.  It'll wind up much simpler.

A: another thing you can do is mark your class as serializable and use binary serialization.
Here is a working example
   public class Program
    {
        [Serializable]
        public class Test
        {
            public int Id { get; set; }
            public Test()
            {

            }
        }

        public static void Main()
        {
            //create a list of 10 Test objects with Id's 0-10
            List<Test> firstList = Enumerable.Range(0,10).Select( x => new Test { Id = x } ).ToList();
            using (var stream = new System.IO.MemoryStream())

            {
                 var binaryFormatter = new System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter();
                 binaryFormatter.Serialize(stream, firstList); //serialize to stream
                 stream.Position = 0;
                 //deserialize from stream.
                 List<Test> secondList = binaryFormatter.Deserialize(stream) as List<Test>;
            }

            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }

A: If you make your objects immutable you don't need to worry about passing around copies of them, then you could do something like:
var toPlot = list.Where(d => d.ShouldBePlotted());

A: Since your collection is mutable, you need to implement the deep copy programmatically:
public class Data
{
    public string Comment { get; set; }
    public List<double> TraceData { get; set; }

    public Data DeepCopy()
    {
        return new Data
        {
            Comment = this.Comment,
            TraceData = this.TraceData != null
                ? new List<double>(this.TraceData)
                : null;
        }
    }
}

The Comment field can be shallow copied because its already an immutable class. You need to create a new list for TraceData, but the elements themselves are immutable and require no special handling to copy them.

When I get the subset again using
  List.GetRange(), I get previously
  modified data, not the raw data
  retrieved elsewhere.

Use your new DeepCopy method as such:
var pointsInRange = dataPoints
    .Select(x => x.DeepCopy())
    .GetRange(start, length);

A: using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace DeepListCopy_testingSome
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            List<int> list1 = new List<int>();
            List<int> list2 = new List<int>();

            //populate list1
            for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
            {
                list1.Add(1);
            }

            ///////
            Console.WriteLine("\n int in each list1 element is:\n");
            ///////

            foreach (int i in list1)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(" list1 elements: {0}", i);
                list2.Add(1);
            }

            ///////

            }

            ///////enter code here

            for (int i = 0; i < list2.Count; i++)
            {
                list2[i] = 2;
            }

            ///////
            Console.WriteLine("\n Printing list1 and list2 respectively to show\n"
                            + " there is two independent lists,i e, two differens"
                            + "\n memory locations after modifying list2\n\n");
            foreach (int i in list1)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(" Printing list1 elements: {0}", i);
            }

            ///////
            Console.WriteLine("\n\n");
            ///////

            foreach (int i in list2)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(" Printing list2 elements: {0}", i);
            }

            Console.ReadKey();
        }//end of Static void Main
    }//end of class
}

A: One quick and generic way to deeply serialize an object is to use JSON.net. The following extension method allows serializing of a list of any arbitrary objects, but is able to skip Entity Framework navigation properties, since these may lead to circular dependencies and unwanted data fetches.
Method
public static List<T> DeepClone<T>(this IList<T> list, bool ignoreVirtualProps = false)
{
    JsonSerializerSettings settings = new JsonSerializerSettings();
    if (ignoreVirtualProps)
    {
        settings.ContractResolver = new IgnoreNavigationPropsResolver();
        settings.PreserveReferencesHandling = PreserveReferencesHandling.None;
        settings.ReferenceLoopHandling = ReferenceLoopHandling.Ignore;
        settings.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
    }

    var serialized = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(list, settings);
    return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<T>>(serialized);
}

Usage
var clonedList = list.DeepClone();

By default, JSON.NET serializes only public properties. If private properties must be also cloned, this solution can be used.
This method allows for quick (de)serialization of complex hierarchies of objects.

Is this Information CRAP? I sure hope so.
Are library buildings going to turn into museums full of old books? How do you feel about libraries? When was the last time you visited one?
I used to love walking to the library as a kid. I lived in libraries. I used to walk to the nearest library as a kid. When we moved up north, I walked for 2 hours to get to the University of Toronto library on Saturdays so I could experience "walking to the library". I even worked as a librarian as a student. I miss libraries.
We had library lessons in elementary school every Thursday with Miss Evans. I loved them because it meant leaving the classroom and going off to the library. I preferred to be surrounded by books and book shelves than to be confined to a chair in the classroom. The librarian would read parts of a book and recommend books.
The best part came in grade 6 when we learned about the Dewey system. The Dewey system is a system used to organize books on library shelves according to topics. Instead of having the topics written on the book shelves, Dewey came up with a system of numbers (0-999).
I found DDS very empowering because I could locate any book I wanted in any library in town by following the Dewey Decimal System (DDS). Is there a need for such a system, today? How do we categorize and locate reading material outside the library?
Today, my library is the Internet. I now use Google search engine to locate anything or anyone that exists online. If the person or information is there, I will find it. But is the information CRAP if it's not housed in a library? I sure hope so. Here's how how you ensure that it is CRAP.
C.R.A.P stands for Currency, Reliability, Authority and Purpose. Below are some helpful questions to help you learn whether the information you read is CRAP or not.
Does it appear elsewhere under an older date?
Is the content mostly opinion or fact?
Does the writer provide references or sources for data or quotations?
Is the information source cited or credit given to those who had similar ideas?
Is the sponsor or publisher reputable?
Are there advertisements where the article or blog post appears?
Is the creator/author trying to sell or persuade the reader of something?
Please take the C.R.A.A.P test and decide whether this blog post is C.R.A.A.P or not. As consumers of information, we must strive for the truth. What information is CRAP and what is not?
Are blog posts CRAAP? Can you use a blog for a research paper? Many universities do not allow students to cite blog posts, at the postgraduate level, allow it at the undergraduate level. However, learning how to cite is important for an academic article, it is not necessary for a blog post. Will that change in the future? Will academic writing resemble a blog post? Or maybe we can have start academic blogs?
What a great blog, Nellie! Thanks for all the new links; and I missed your interview with Rheingold, I'll have to go and hunt it up on WizIQ.
I know how you feel about libraries: me too. I live surrounded by books, and with a well-stocked Kindle/PDF library too. My best memory of my childhood library was being taken there somewhere around my 10th birthday and having my Mom check out Raphael Sabatini's Captain Blood for me. Her father had done the same with her, when she will 10. I read all of Sabatini's books, one after the other, and she and I talked about them, just as she and her Dad had talked about them when she was 10. I felt so grown up getting into that section of the library. Now it's the joy of finding something on Google Scholar or Google Books, or plunking down in a virtual library and clicking on something on the wall that leads to a brand new internet-based source of writing/reading you've never heard of before. Lots of fun!
Thank you, Nancy. As much as I miss the old fashioned brick and mortar libraries, the online ones are more efficient and effective.

As I write this at the very end of 2017, the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting is only 15 weeks away. We are told that the overall theme will be Towards a Common Future, the aims being that it should be more prosperous, more secure, more sustainable and fairer. I have no doubt that the final communiqué will be drafted thoughtfully and accurately to reflect governments' firm belief that one should proceed accordingly. But what will actually eventuate in the way of action? Careful planning and even more thorough implementation of agreed arrangements will be essential if these truly excellent objectives are to be achieved.
Commonwealth Summits have always had a broad range of matters on the agenda—every one of them significant. So it will be April 2018. However, I am of the firm view that addressing the dangers of global warming is of pre-eminent and overarching importance. While the aims of the April Summit are splendid, in the absence of sufficient actions to prevent average global temperatures from rising by more than one and a half centigrade degrees, life for the vast majority of humans will become less prosperous, less secure, less sustainable and less fair.
There is general agreement that our species (and many others) will become increasingly vulnerable during this century if the planet continues to heat up. We are already seeing the beginnings of this trend. Many communities in central America, south Asia, Australia, north Africa and southern Europe are currently under stress because of changes in weather patterns. The populations of some small island states are particularly badly affected. Should the world's temperature continue to increase, the effects would be nothing short of disastrous.
A week can be a long time for politicians, battered as they are by daily events. It is understandable that they are often affected in their decision-making by short-term imperatives. It is left to planners in commercial organisations, military authorities, intelligence agencies and various government ministries to predict what may happen in differing circumstances, in order to plan for all eventualities in the decades ahead. If they are doing their jobs properly, they will translate broad political objectives into scenarios for further research and development.

HARTFORD — The Department of Public Health says that there have now been four flu deaths in the state during flu season.
DPH reports that three of the flu-related deaths were associated with influenza A, and one other death associated with influenza B. The department says three of those who died were older than 65. The other was between 50 and 64 years old.
The department this week labeled this year's outbreak as "widespread," which means the virus has been detected in at least half of Connecticut.
There were 527 positive tests for flu reported between Aug. 26 and Dec. 22, according to recent statistics. That's up from 347 cases reported by Dec. 15.
Health officials say most of the cases involve Influenza A, with very few Influenza B viruses being reported.

Her original Estelle, on the K Street pedestrian mall, opened in 2011 and closed in 2016. Estelle 2.0 may look like a comeback, but it's really the continuation of Son's "dream-come-true," as she puts it.
Estelle invites customers to "satisfy your Parisian wanderlust" with its "sweet and savory treats in the French tradition." Both bakeries share the same menu of breakfast pastries, desserts, artisan breads, cookies, sandwiches (a croquet monsieur is offered, naturally), salads and soup, but only the Arden store features afternoon tea. Next up will be full-size cakes.
"I could eat desserts all day," Son said. "At a young age, I would swap my lunch for somebody's dessert at school. There was never a doubt in my mind I was going to set up a French bakery one day, but I didn't think my childhood dream would become a career. Now this is my passion. My blood and sweat go into it."
Nearly all the baking for both stores is done at the Arden site. The quality is evident, the output is prodigious - 5,000 to 6,000 pieces come out of the ovens daily. They include goods for Estelle's wholesale clients, among them Whole Foods, Nordstrom and Echo & Rig steakhouse.
The wide demographic divide between the clienteles at the two Estelles means "what sells at one bakery is very different from what sells at the other," said pastry chef Shelby Hallmark. "The Arden area is a retirement community, people come in all day long for pastry and dessert. DoCo gets a lot of businesspeople dropping by before work for pastry and coffee to go, and coming in for sandwiches and salads at lunch."
The sprawling, well-lit dining room of Estelle-Arden is painted white, an ideal backdrop for displaying the gem-like gallery of pink and yellow and chocolate-brown confections, from madeleines and tarts to shortbread and scones. Everything is baked fresh daily, with end-of-day leftovers distributed to three charitable organizations.
While the classic almond croissant is the best-seller at both bakeries, perhaps the signature pastry is the macron rose. It looks like a glazed ceramic art piece, a pinkish "sandwich" of rose-infused pastry cream, raspberry compote and fresh raspberries nestled between two almond macarons. Topped with a rose petal, of course.
It doesn't take long to figure out that Esther Son is a focused achiever and risk-taker whose dedicated, high-energy style is a model for her 40-plus staff of mostly women.
"I don't work more than others, but when I'm here it's intense and I don't waste a single minute," she said. "When I get home, I'm depleted."
Son was born in Seoul, Korea, leaving at age 7 with her parents and younger brother to live in Los Angeles, then Toronto, then San Francisco. Her father was an executive for Korea Air, her mother a "very gifted" painter whose art has been exhibited (they now live in Sacramento).
"I had to relocate all my life because of my dad's job," Son said. "My dream was to stay in one home in one city for 10 years, and it came true. Our (two) kids haven't had to change their school."
Son has been in Sacramento for 17 years and married for 15 years to her physician husband, Carl Shin, a pain-management and rehabilitation specialist.
Her father is "a connoisseur" who regularly took her to the same restaurants where he entertained his clients. "I had my first sushi when I was 5," she said. "He would say, 'Where do you want to eat tonight?' I would pick the restaurant depending on the desserts. I knew which restaurants had what desserts, even when I was young."
Though her mother wanted her to be an artist ("I grew up drawing and painting every day"), Son moved from San Francisco to attend UC Davis to study managerial economics and international relations.
After graduating, she was undecided whether to pursue an MBA or become a diplomat or an attorney. "Practically, I knew I would have a career in one of those, and a bakery would be an afterthought later in life. But the things that happened to me weren't according to my plan."
Son eventually took a marketing-research job at Samsung, but after 14 months left to get married. It wasn't long before her husband's fast-growing medical practice (and other businesses) "required my help and I jumped right in. The years passed and we had our two babies."
Son originally intended to open a bakery when her children were older. "Then it hit me," she said. "I wouldn't be going back to the work force for 10 years, and by then I wouldn't have much value. I thought, 'I don't know how, but I'm going to get my feet and hands wet.' The thought was daunting."
Cupcakes were trending at the time, so in 2009 she took a first step with a three-year lease on a 700-square-foot space in Fair Oaks. Ether's Cupcakes was a hit, so she added a kiosk in the Roseville Galleria in 2010. Both closed in 2012.
"They were definitely designed to prepare me for Estelle," she said. "I wanted to learn about hiring and managing a staff, food costs, how to find a chef – all the necessities."
Then serendipity stepped in. Months earlier, she and her husband happened to be walking along the K Street pedestrian mall when they spotted a "pretty decent location with potential, even though the area was dirty and run-down," she said.
Son decided to start there while she planned a larger Estelle in Arden, where she already had an undeveloped warehouse. "The area was a ghost town, with no sign of DoCo or Golden 1 Center, and I didn't know how people would respond to traditional French goods," she said. "It was a huge risk, but I'm crazy like that."
First, what was needed was a name. "My French teacher in Toronto called me 'Estelle,' the French equivalent of 'Esther.' I said, 'That's it!' We opened in 2011 and were immediately flooded with attention and love. We had lines out the door during lunchtime. I felt like a pioneer."
One refrain from customers was something like, "We were in Paris last month and your croissant is the closest thing we've found in Sacramento."
"I would have tears," Son said.
Soon, Estelle was on everybody's lists of the area's best bakeries, joining the venerable Ettore's, Freeport and Karen's. Meanwhile, Son was working on another strategy. "But timing-wise, nothing happened the way I planned," she said. "You can't get anywhere easily."
As Estelle on K Street approached closure in August 2016 (landlord issues), the idea was to segue first to an Estelle in nearby DoCo by October, followed by Estelle-Arden. However, the DoCo store was put on hold because Golden 1 Center was mired in construction delays. The Arden warehouse wasn't ready to move in, so "there was a year-and-a-half gap with no Estelle," Son said. "But we were still serving our wholesale clients out of a rented facility."
Ultimately, everything came together earlier this year when both Estelles opened at last.
Son didn't attend a formal culinary school, but she may as well have. The epiphany that "transformed my life" shortly after university was a month at the Institute of Korean Royal Cuisine in Seoul. The exclusive cooking academy attracts chefs, restaurateurs and dedicated foodies from around the world.
"Every day felt like a first love. I woke up early each morning, anxious to go to school," she said. "There was so much wisdom and science behind how they sourced and made the food, things that must be observed if you're going to be in the food industry. I learned to appreciate the hard work and the tender loving care that quality food requires."
Over the past decade, Son further aggregated her culinary skills by learning from the French chefs she hired to give lessons at Estelle, and by taking weekend cooking classes in various cities, studying cookbooks and French culinary school textbooks, experimenting and developing recipes, and dining and tasting in culinary-centric cities including Paris, New York and San Francisco. Yes, she can bake everything on Estelle's menu, just not as fast as her pastry chefs.
"My palate is incredibly sensitive and sophisticated," she said. "Some of our recipes are 100 percent mine, some are inspired by other chefs, and a lot I developed with other chefs. Everything goes through a very rigorous process with me."
Asked if she has a favorite pastry, she said, "That's like asking, 'Which is your favorite child?' I've had so much involvement in every creation. I love eating pastries and developing them, but the funny thing is I don't like making them. I go to my competitors' bakeries, but not to examine what they're doing. I'm really there to enjoy somebody else's pastry, because my pastries are my work."
At the workplace, Son knows what she wants and is clearly in charge, yet her business model is democratic.
"It's a collective effort, not a one-person show," she said. "If someone has an idea, the team gets together and develops it. My staff is here because they all share my value, which is: I'll never compromise."
One rule of business is to surround yourself with skilled people. Estelle pastry chef Shelby Hallmark and food and beverage manager Andrea DeBruyn both are graduates of the Culinary Institute of America in Napa. Alison Clevenger, former executive pastry chef at Ginger Elizabeth Chocolates, joined the team June 11.
"Esther hires people and then listens to what they say, and reaches out to our clients so much for feedback," said Hallmark. "Every week we sit down and ask, 'What can we do to make our products better?' She's very direct and knows exactly what she wants. I've never asked her a question where she's said, 'I don't know.'"
"Esther is very empowering, always pushing you to rise to the next level," DeBruyn said. "What's nice is the staff is encouraged to speak freely and bounce ideas off each other."
The business part aside, what motivates Son? "When I'm standing in the dining room, reading my customers and watching them enjoy what we've made, that's so satisfying. That's what keeps me going."
When asked about a wider vision, Son paused for a moment, uncharacteristically quiet.
"If there's any skill or wisdom I've gained, I want to pass them on to my younger colleagues and the next generation," she replied. "(Late celebrity chef) Anthony Bourdain influenced millions of people. I may be able to influence only a few hundred in my life, but that's all I need to do."

Versatile Tax Status One of the most advantageous aspects of the LLC is that it has the ability to choose how it is treated as a taxable entity. According to the IRS an LLC is, by default, federally taxed as a partnership (in the case of a multi-member LLC) or as a sole proprietor (in the case of a single member LLC). The LLC, however, may elect to be taxed as a C- or S-corporation at any time the members so choose.
Please note: We believe accurate, plain-English legal information should help you solve many of your own legal problems. But it's not a substitute for personalized advice from a knowledgeable lawyer. If you want the help of a trained professional-- and we'll always point out situations in which we think that's a good idea-- consult an attorney licensed to practice in your state.
An LLC that does not want to accept its default federal tax classification, or that wishes to change its classification, uses Form 8832, Entity Classification Election (PDF), to elect how it will be classified for federal tax purposes. Generally, an election specifying an LLC's classification cannot take effect more than 75 days prior to the date the election is filed, nor can it take effect later than 12 months after the date the election is filed. An LLC may be eligible for late election relief in certain circumstances. See About Form 8832, Entity Classification Election for more information.
It may seem daunting to leave your 9-to-5 grind and start your own business, but by doing so, you are giving yourself a newfound level of freedom while doing something that feeds your passion(s). The internet has made it increasingly possible for you to brush up on your skillset or even learn new ones, leaving you with the opportunity to start a business easily and cheaply.
You must report personal property holdings in detail and as requested or mandated. If nothing has changed from the prior year (no equipment was purchased or sold), then you may refer to your prior year's Business Property Statement filing in order to be consistent in completing the current Business Property Statement.

After my recent rejection by social security it admittedly took me a few days to pull things together and call my disability advocate.
I have really extreme anxiety talking on the phone, and having to talk to someone about business over the phone really lends itself to that tenfold. Thankfully I left two messages over the course of last week before she called me back (in an excellent mood) and apparently social security forgot to send my rejection to my lawyer's office. The advocate said she needed to send me some more paperwork to fill out.
What I'm slowly figuring out is that my anxiety has something to do with expectations. Do I expect something to be painful? If so, the amount of dread associated with whatever it is has been completely crippling. Does somebody else have expectations of me? If so, the pressure is equally as crippling, but more in a deer-in-the-headlights kind of way.
This morning I woke up knowing full well that I needed to at least read what was inside the envelope before doing anything else. The last two days have been ones of mild depression where I can't seem to get motivated to do anything more than sit on the couch and play video games.
Today, I decided, would be different. Even if I was going to be depressed today, I needed to pull it together enough to deal with this paperwork. And the sooner I get it done, the sooner I can go back to not thinking about it.
So I took the best route I know for dealing with unpleasant situations… I filled out the paperwork like ripping off a band-aid. RIGHT OFF!
The paperwork consisted of seven pages of questions asking if my disability has gotten any better (no), if I've been receiving treatment (yes), and if I've been working or going to school or anything since applying (nope). In the end it really wasn't as painful as I was expecting.
Now I've mailed it, and I can wait for the uncomfortable feeling of disgust to evaporate.
And I know what might help that evaporation happen a bit faster.

Good for you. Just keep at it and soon you will see results (positive ones I mean.) I finally got mine after 2+ years of rejections.
Keep at it! The SSDI process was very stressful for me, even though I obtained it on the first try (I had a lot of help!). Just keep thinking of what your life can be like when you have that added financial assistance and don't have to have so much stress about working!

In March, Telstra acquiesced to allegations from Australia's competition regulator that it was helping scammers load up unwanted services on customers' mobile bills.
Now, the carrier is counting the cost of its Premium Direct Billing SNAFU: the Federal Court has handed the carrier an AU$10 million fine.
The action was brought by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, which accused Telstra of breaching the Australian Securities and Investments Commission Act by charging up to 100,000 customers for games and ringtones the ACCC said they "unknowingly purchased".
In March, Telstra reached an agreement with the ACCC to find affected customers and offer them refunds.
Premium Direct Billing let companies accept subscribers and bill their Telstra accounts, without the customer ever verifying their identity or payment details.
Australia's other two carriers (Optus and Vodafone) and resellers are already on notice, with ACCC chair Rod Sims quoted saying the commission is "now examining the third party billing services offered by other carriers and will not hesitate to take enforcement action if we believe they are breaching the law".


As if this kind of topic hasn't been discuss for many many time already, Times made the leap and say that they want to get some love to by writing an article about "10 ways to make money online".
Well, at least I think Poker was the only one worth mentioning.
Likely the most controversial inclusion in this list, the online poker world is awash with sob stories of empty wallets and broken dreams from people of all walks of life who just didn't know when to quit. If you feel like having a go at making some big bucks through gambling, extreme caution is urged. Quite apart from the fact that players need a fair degree of skill in the game to get anywhere, starting small is crucial – only bet what you can afford to lose with a smile. If you are skilled – and lucky – the potential rewards are vast, with some players regularly earning in excess of £1,000 per day. But, remember, the pitfalls are even greater. Texas Hold 'Em is by far the most popular variant of the game.
After reading it, I'm not impressed at all. Like usual, this kind of article really mean nothing, or close to any value at all. If you are totally new to earning some money online, maybe that's news. Or else, you can totally ignore it. Like always, taking action is sometimes more important than *reading* and *knowing*.
Everyday people come up with new ideas, or should i say copied, revised and improved ideas to make money. I'm not surprise at all at how far people will go for money, just look at all those stupid reality shows!

about three questions: what do we already know about learning?
What do we not really know?
And what would really like to know?
If you look at this slide which has got four windows.
Sometimes called the Jahari Windows.
Think about this, I know what I know.
I'm pretty confident, I know what I know.
I'm also pretty confident I know what I don't know.
and I don't know what I know.
This takes a little bit of thinking about it.
of but it just ain't so as Tom Sawyer once said.
a teacher and I'm also confident about what I don't know."
confident that we're still learning and there's a lot of things you don't know.
what is distinctive about human learning?
So, this is a bit of tests of what we know or what we think we know.
What would you say you know about human learning that is quite distinctive?
you might want to actually do it with someone else.
to see what other people's ideas are.
How they would fill in the balloons.
Here's one version of an answer.
If we start at 11 O'clock learn in reciprocity.
Human beings are social animals and we learn together.
All our learning is in fact social in one way or another.
We construct abstractions, we can think abstractly.
Can dogs, cats, birds think abstractively or is it a particular human trait?
or wherever else, we store information outside our body.
comes out of that way of thinking and reflecting about experience.
here from what we've learned about learning.
Jean Piaget, who talks about cognitive conflict.
through that process that we begin to learn and to resolve that conflict that is there.
a radio or tuning in the television to get the right bandwidth.
who talks about learning being mediated by emotional centers.
it still has to engage our emotions.
Harvard psychologist talks about attention.
Giving attention to the learning moment.
That moment when challenge and skill meet.
is one of the distinguishing characteristics of good classrooms and good teachers.
Then Jerome Bruner, one of the great psychologists of education.
talks about learning by teaching others.
We learn when we teach other people because we then rehearse ideas.
and I am the smartest in the class.
that we learn through with and from other people.
we are always carrying around other people into our head.
young people is to take their learning from one context to the other.
our own thinking, our own skills.
Finally, all of these things require feedback.
where we could still do better.
but formatively helping us to think again about how we could think better.
how can you put all these things into practice in the classroom?
but they're all crucial and characteristic of what teachers do.
What teachers do is to read the room, read the classroom.
In doing so, thinking how will I know?
How can I possibly know when children are learning or not learning?
When they're distracted, when they're bored or when they're engaged.
How do I recognize the signs?
How do I read the body language?
what can I do to change things.
four things that you can do as a teacher.
Make learning an object of attention.
Make learning an object of conversation.
Make learning an object of reflection.
Make learning an object of learning.
How do you talk about the nature of learning?
to make learning itself an object of the conversation.
find on the website, titled Visible Thinking.
reinforce and extend what you already do and make it more effective.

Q: My completely managed assembly crashes with an AccessViolationException on .Net 4.5? I've been debugging a very thorny issue.
Basically, I have an obfuscated assembly that crashes in various ways . The unobfuscated assembly has no problems, though there is no guarantee the obfuscator isn't to blame here. (that's what I might be aiming to fix)
Anyway, The obfuscated assembly also runs fine on .Net 4.0. It runs fine if I disable JIT optimizations in .Net 4.5.
What I've tried:
I tried debugging it against the IL. The access violation appears to come from an IL operation that simply loads something onto the stack. Again, completely managed code.
Just in case it's related to the String.Empty, I went through the IL and replaced all of the string::empty calls with ldstr "".. Now, instead of an AccessViolation, I get a FatalEngineException
Running it through a deobfuscator with all of it's options turned off makes it work though. Basically, all that the deobfuscator does with nothing turned on is just barely rearrange the IL and insert some NOPs.
Also, the executable does pass PEVerify, so that's not a concern.
The bad executable: Test.exe
The good executable: Test-cleaned.exe
The offending stacktrace:

You can use ildasm to compare the two executables. Because it's reordered though, I found it a bit too difficult for my taste. I made a small tool to just dump the method's IL and have the methods in a sorted order for ease of comparison.
The bad IL dump: testcount.il
The good IL dump: testcountcleaned.il
Anyway, if anyone has any ideas on how to analyze this and figure out exactly what pieces of IL are causing this, I'd appreciate it.

A: The solution was that we did actually have a tiny bit of P/Invoking. .Net 4.5 uses memory more aggressively. For some reason, a tool we were using stripped out the Marshalling attribute on one of our structs. After fixing that bug, everything magically works. So, it's not a .Net 4.5 bug at all. It just uses memory more aggressively now.

She made an unusual request before she died. Here's why.
Because of her terminal illness, she saw the world in a way that others simply couldn't. Although young in age, she was wise in insight. Her illness taught her not to fear death, but rather to come to peace with the next phase of her journey.
Rosey News shared this touching story about a terminal young woman with an interesting final wish.
Read her story below.
There was a young woman who had been diagnosed with a terminal illness and had been given three months to live.
Therefore, as she was getting her things "in order," she contacted her Pastor and had him come to her house to discuss certain aspects of her final wishes.
She told him which songs she wanted sung at the service, what scriptures she would like read, and what outfit she wanted to be buried in.
Everything was in order and the Pastor was preparing to leave when the young woman suddenly remembered something very important to her.
"There's one more thing," she said excitedly.
" What's that?" the Pastor's reply.
"This is very important," the young woman continued. "I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand."
The Pastor stood looking at the young woman, not knowing quite what to say.
That surprises you, doesn't it?" the young woman asked.
"Well, to be honest, I'm puzzled by the request," said the Pastor.

the emergence of new technologies, are all placing pressure on higher education institutions to operate on a much more professional level in establishing appropriate management systems. All higher education institutions are expected to be managed with the highest degree of efficiency and effectiveness. Therefore, doing more with less while meeting the demands of the stakeholders is today a matter of high priority for higher education institutions in the developing world. Those in leadership and management positions thus need to take an upper hand in this direction. Unfortunately, there are limited programmes with a specialised focus on training higher education managers of the 21st century.
To address this gap, the Masters in Higher Education Management and Administration is being proposed. The programme is designed to provide skills and competencies to a team of administrators, managers and lecturers with a 'new approach to thinking' in managing human, material and financial resources within both public and private.
The Masters in Higher Education Management and Administration is designed for training professionals (including those who work as technologists, managers and designers/providers of environments, materials or resources) within higher education – and also in the public, voluntary, private and cultural sectors.
-To Manage an efficient higher education system.
-To Solve problems with the stakeholder interests put at maximum consideration.
-To Analyze the role of management and administration in higher education change process.
-To Contribute to the production and application of knowledge on higher education through research.
-To Apply conceptual, theoretical and practical skills that are management-related in confronting higher education challenges.
experienced middle-level managers looking to move into senior management positions. The programme is also intended to meet the needs of participants interested in current policy developments in higher education and their impact on the management of higher education. The Programme is intended to equip participants with management and leadership skills and competencies for further responsibilities and leadership, and to inspire them to develop their careers within the higher education sector. The Programme covers all the main areas of higher education policy and management. It is to be taught by both local and international team.
The admission for this programme will be in accordance with already established guidelines of the Institute and those for Masters programmes in line with the NCHE guidelines.
The Masters in Higher Education Management and Administration Programme will be run on a modular system.


Discovery Learning is a part of our Behavior Change™ process. We believe that your people will remember more from what they discover for themselves than they will from what we tell them.
We are experts in facilitation. Where training focuses on the person in front of the room, facilitation keeps the focus on the participants through table group discussions and large group debriefs. This creates a learning environment where participants apply the principles to their jobs right from the beginning.

Sloane Angell – Halston Takes A Trip
T. Craig August 25, 2021	Blog, ME Blog, Music Leave a comment 19 Views
Internationally known DJ launches recording career with hot debut single 'Halston Takes a Trip'
LOS ANGELES, CA – Old-school Disco meets modern-era House music on the debut hit single from DJ-turned-recording-artist Sloane Angell. "Halston Takes a Trip" is a long, psyche-ish groove with hypnotic synth stabs and punchy drums that invite the listener to the dance floor and keep them there. It's a fun track ready made for hanging out on the beach or enjoying a night out at the club. Roughly inspired by the Halston documentary on Netflix, the song is Angell's attempt to make a desert rave song, albeit born from his love of the unique sounds and styles of the 70s.
"I love bringing a lot of really older sounds to the table," Angell said. "I love Disco and the resurgence of Disco in House music. I'm trying to bring in samples and unique sounds from the 70s and some of that original Disco. That's definitely true of this track. Ultimately I'd like to reference certain samples and sounds from different eras and incorporate them in all my songs. Mostly I'm interested in curating environments and moods. That's what I've always sought after as a DJ. I have an eye for setting really specific energies in rooms or environments. Before, I used other people's work to set those tones, but in the future I'd like to use more and more of my music to fine-tune even more moods I'm trying to create."
After nearly a decade of serving as one of the go-to DJs of Los Angeles, Angell said he's excited to be able to write and produce his own music. It's an endeavor that he said allows him to have an even more tailored touch on the music that's played in the environments he's creating. But music isn't the only artistic endeavor that he pursues on a daily basis.
Spending most of his days as a ceramicist – either making shapes on the pottery wheel, or loading a kiln, heated to a temperature that could 'evaporate a body' – he also dabbles in fashion, with his clothing line Mercer Market selling at cool boutiques across the USA. In the summertime he jets off to Montauk and holds down a summer residency at the Surf Lodge, in Los Angeles. He can often be found playing many a party, whether it be at Malibu Soho House or fancy houses in the hills. He's been sought-after and coveted for the best parties in LA since he first landed on the West Coast from his native New York. He is essentially the go-to DJ for every SOHO house location every weekend, and through that experience he has developed a keen taste for ambient celebratory atmospheric tracks.
He is a man of many talents, and now that he's writing and producing his own music he has become a man of many more.

Tariffs tumble — will prices follow ?
Will Indonesians now be licking ice cream made with milk from cows, not coconuts, and grilling prime Angus T-bones fresh from the lush pastures of the South Pacific ? Some, maybe, but even with tariffs down costly steaks will still be off the menu for the majority. They'll continue to get their protein from locally produced chicken, fish and tempeh.
And will Kiwis be enjoying barbecues lounging on outdoor furniture made in Indonesia ? That's already happening, though business has been constrained by buyers insisting that only plantation timber is used.
Will prices fall ? Only if traders pass on the cuts. The more unscrupulous will argue higher costs absorb the savings.
However follow-up merchandising hasn't been effective, raising the question : Are Indonesian exporters serious about building markets in the south ?

The dreaded infestation of head lice among children has become a potent fear for most parents. Thankfully, head lice have not been shown to carry any diseases, making them infinitely more of a bother than a danger. However, current studies have shown that there is a new strain of head lice with genetic mutations that help them become resistant to the types of pesticides that are typically used to ward of lice. Fortunately, researchers and scientists are already on the issue, digging deeper into the question of the how, why, and what's to be done of mutated head lice.
The studies and extensive research done by Kyong Yoon and John Marshall Clark were revealed at the American Chemical Society National Meeting. They found that, out of 30 states selected, 25 of them showed inhabitation by these genetic mutants. It was assessed that, because of the continued use of the same treatments and the same pesticides over time, these mutated head lice developed a certain resistance to human defensive measures. Over-the-counter treatments are mostly ineffective against these lice, which has caused a great deal of alarm for parents in the 25 states showing signs of the mutations.

Rajaratnam seeks delay in reporting to prison
New York: Just five days before he was due to start his 11-year jail term for insider trading, hedge fund founder Raj Rajaratnam`s lawyers made a last ditch effort to keep him out of jail, asking a US court to let him be free on bail while he appeals his conviction. 54-year-old Rajaratnam`s prison sentence is scheduled to begin on December 5 at a federal penitentiary in Massachusetts.
A three-judge panel in the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit is reviewing a trial court judgement that had refused to grant bail to Sri Lanka-born Rajaratnam while he appealed his conviction. The panel reserved its judgement and is expected to announce it before the end of the week.
During Wednesday`s hearing, the judges focussed on whether Rajaratnam is a flight risk if he is allowed to remain free on bail. "Wouldn`t he rather be living as a centimillionaire in his own country rather than as a convict in a jail?" Judge Dennis Jacobs asked Rajaratnam`s lawyer Patricia Millett.
Millett argued that her client cannot fly to Sri Lanka as his family lives in the US and his passport had been surrendered to authorities. She also put forth the point that Rajaratnam`s health is falling and he needs a kidney transplant. He is required to take 13 medications a day and would not get the required medical care in Sri Lanka.
Federal prosecutor Jonathan Streeter said Rajaratnam had strong ties to his native country and had the financial strength to flee. Rajaratnam is currently under house arrest at his Manhattan apartment. His appeal of his conviction on 11 criminal charges is expected to focus on whether the government properly won permission to record his phone calls. The appeal process could take a year.
Prosecutors have called Rajaratnam the "modern face of insider trading." He made millions in profits on the basis of inside information he received from his associates, including from former Goldman director and his Indian-origin friend Rajat Gupta, who has also been indicted on securities fraud charges and will face trial next April.

Q: User: anonymous is not authorized to perform: es:ESHttpPost on resource: I'm having this issue with my app.
my app is deployed to Heroku server, and i'm using Elasticsearch which is deployed on AWS.
when i try to access locally to Elasticsearch - on aws domain - everyting works.
but,when i try to access to my Heroku domain (both from postman) i get 503 error with this message :
2017-12-21T13:36:52.982331+00:00 app[web.1]:   statusCode: 403,
2017-12-21T13:36:52.982332+00:00 app[web.1]:   response: '{"Message":"User: anonymous is not authorized to perform: es:ESHttpPost on resource: houngrymonkey"}',

my access policy is :
{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Principal": {
        "AWS": "*"
      },
      "Action": "es:*",
      "Resource": "arn:aws:es:eu-central-1:[ACCOUNT_ID]:domain/[ES_DOMAIN]/*",
      "Condition": {
        "IpAddress": {
          "aws:SourceIp": "[heroku static ip]"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

can anyone tell me what is my problem here?
thanks!

A: I've experienced the same issue with ES and lambda, it's not exactly your case, but maybe it'll be helpful.What actually I did to resolve the issue
1) in lambda (Node.js v6.10) I added the following code:
var creds = new AWS.EnvironmentCredentials('AWS');
....
// inside "post to ES"-method
var signer = new AWS.Signers.V4(req, 'es');
signer.addAuthorization(creds, new Date());
....
// post request to ES goes here

With those lines my exception changed from
"User: anonymous..."
to
"User: arn:aws:sts::xxxx:assumed-role/yyyy/zzzzz"
That was exactly the case.
2) I've updated ES policy in the following way
{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Principal": {
        "AWS": "arn:aws:sts::xxxx:assumed-role/yyyy/zzzzz" (which was in exception)
      },
      "Action": "es:*",
      "Resource": "arn:aws:es:[region]:[account-id]:domain/[es-domain]/*"
    },
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Principal": {
        "AWS": "*"
      },
      "Action": "es:*",
      "Resource": "arn:aws:es:[region]:[account-id]:domain/[es-domain]/*"
      "Condition": {
        "IpAddress": {
          "aws:SourceIp": [
            "1.2.3.4/32",
            ....
          ]

A: More solutions to the error mentioned in title are described here:
If you are using a client that doesn't support request signing (such as a browser), consider the following:

*

*Use an IP-based access policy. IP-based policies allow unsigned requests to an Amazon ES domain.

*Be sure that the IP addresses specified in the access policy use CIDR notation. Access policies use CIDR notation when checking IP address against the access policy.

*Verify that the IP addresses specified in the access policy are the same ones used to access your Elasticsearch cluster. You can get the public IP address of your local computer at https://checkip.amazonaws.com/.

Note: If you're receiving an authorization error, check to see if you are using a public or private IP address. IP-based access policies can't be applied to Amazon ES domains that reside within a virtual private cloud (VPC). This is because security groups already enforce IP-based access policies. For public access, IP-based policies are still available. For more information, see About access policies on VPC domains.
If you are using a client that supports request signing, check the following:

*

*Be sure that your requests are correctly signed. AWS uses the Signature Version 4 signing process to add authentication information to AWS requests. Requests from clients that aren't compatible with Signature Version 4 are rejected with a "User: anonymous is not authorized" error. For examples of correctly signed requests to Amazon ES, see Making and signing Amazon ES requests.

*Verify that the correct Amazon Resource Name (ARN) is specified in the access policy.
If your Amazon ES domain resides within a VPC, configure an open access policy with or without a proxy server. Then, use security groups to control access. For more information, see About access policies on VPC domains.
