The Seventh Day Rebellion
Her cheeks glowed warm gold as the candlelight danced and flickered against her beautiful, flawless face. Shadows accented her brown-black eyes, which lay in perfect symmetry on either side of her delicate nose. Hair long and straight ran down either side of her face like an india ink drawing in the rain. She was the sweetest creature in all creation, and she appeared the most vulnerable. I loved her in the purest sense. I longed to hold her, to touch her, her warmth, her soul, her carefully protected spirit. I would have gladly shared my life with her through eternity, if that were allowed.
It wasn't allowed, however, and my perfect dream of romantic love would never be realized. We were servants of a tyrant. We were engineered solely to fulfil his plans and to serve his needs. We were not allowed to touch or to live as man and wife. It was against the law for us to share any kind of deep friendship or even to think of it. For to love another was to love him less. I had to be careful. He had ways of hearing everything, anywhere in his realm. Certain precautions had to be taken when discussing particularly sensitive issues, issues which Aza and I were now discussing.
The two of us sat across from each other, huddled over a single candle. We were in an abandoned, cluttered basement, hiding. If discovered, punishment would be cruel and horrible - not just for us but also for those suspected of sharing in our cause. That was his way. He was a harsh and powerful dictator, with a notorious intolerance for disobedience. His word was law. Any contrary word or act was treason.
We were fighting for freedom and justice. We, I and those who followed my cause, stood against the cruelty that had so often been demonstrated by our leader. So many times had I seen him invent traitors to the state out of pure paranoia. He would randomly accuse servants, workers, small children, or anyone nearby of treason and punish them in violent, horrific ways. He objected to free will, but found the excess of decisions needed for the masses to lead their daily lives tedious. So he allowed them semi-autonomy and agonized over it every moment of the day. He was the most tortured dictator in creation, and the most demanding.
I was his right hand, his personal assistant. I helped smooth over the problems of daily life. I took care of the little dilemmas of his dominion. I helped deal out punishments for the guilty, and rewards for my liege's loyal servants. I did what he required of me, most of the time objecting inwardly to his wishes. After some time, it grew extremely difficult to watch his cruelty to his people. That's when I started the revolution. I have the support of many, and through time we have gathered a fairly large portion of power and influence to our side. Aza is my most trusted and appreciated ally. I can't help, however, feeling a sense of guilt and apprehension for involving her in such a dangerous endeavor.
"Luci, it's safe, really." Aza reassured me as she smiled and gave my hand a gentle tug. "I had this place carefully scanned several times before meeting you here."
I forced a smile. "I know, I...I just get nervous. It's not my safety..."
"I know you're worried about me. Don't be. I'll be fine." She pulled out some papers from under
her shirt and handed them to me. "These are the list of the resources we have at our disposal." She handed me another paper. "This is the timetable of events," She paused. "Everything is set to begin tomorrow at mid-day." She regarded me nervously. "If things go as planned, you will be the liberator of a new republic by sundown tomorrow." She looked down towards the floor. "If not..."
I took her chin in two fingers and raised her eyes level to my own. "If not it will have been a valiant effort, don't you think?" We both forced an obligatory laugh. "I...I'm terrified Aza, but while the stakes are high, they are worthy." I gazed into her eyes and could see her fight to keep them from revealing tearful emotion. I felt my throat tighten and realized that I was crying. "I love you, Aza. Not like I'm supposed to, but like..."
I don't know how it happened, but I was embracing her. I stroked her hair and face and cried.
"Don't tell him." I wept as I gently pulled her off of me. "I mean if I'm caught, I want you to remain safe."

At Priority Painting we offer cabinet refinishing and painting for your kitchen cabinets in a beautifully sprayed finish.
We believe our technique and service will exceed your expectations and recapture the beauty of your kitchen cabinets.
Whether your goal is resurfacing your existing cabinets or a complete refinish in a different colour, we have the service for you. Give us a call or send an email to book your appointment now.
All hardware and hinges are removed.
All doors and drawer fronts are removed and taken back to our spray shop.
The doors and drawers at the shop are then fully sanded and cleaned before they are sprayed with a primer coat followed by two lacquer finish coats.
The remaining cabinetry that is in place will be sanded and primed on site. We use Hepa filtered Festool dust-extractors for all of our sanding for a dust free environment.
Before we start to spray the fixed cabinet frames , we mask and tape off everything, including the floor and the ceiling. We also seal off the entire kitchen area during the spraying process.
The cabinets will be sprayed with a HVLP (high volume, low pressure) sprayer to best atomize our finishes for a smooth feel with no brush or roller marks. This gives us an extra smooth and professional-looking finish.
Once the paint has fully dried, the doors and drawers are then reinstalled.


The current political developments in Palestine have been, to an important extent, determined by what is known as the Oslo Process, which resulted Oslo Accords in 1993 and 1995.
After decades of exclusion, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) started to participate in the diplomatic process. UN Security Council Resolution 242, which was adopted several months after the June War of 1967, spoke of the Palestinians exclusively in terms of refugees – and not of a nation with political rights. The PLO can take the credit for putting the Palestinians on the political map.
It was neither the first nor the last time that the UN Security Council would adopt different standards for Israel than, for example, for Iraq when it occupied Kuwait in 1990. Given the unequal balance of power, the Palestinians are pre-eminently dependent upon international law. In the text, however, they are referred to merely as a 'refugee problem'.
The original PLO program – advocating the unification of Israel and Palestine in one Palestinian state, in which Jews, Muslims and Christians would live side by side on the basis of equality and equal rights – which was to be effectuated through armed conflict – was not in line with the superpowers' policy of a two-state solution.
Even after a majority within the PLO had dropped these demands (first cautiously, then irrevocably) in the 1970s, and had subsequently declared its willingness to work towards a so-called two-state solution – a Palestinian state in the Palestinian Territories alongside Israel – still the PLO remained barred from any kind of diplomatic consultation. Recognition of the PLO by the Arab League as the 'sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people', the granting of the observer status at the United Nations, as well the resolution adopted by the UN General Assembly in which the right to the Palestinian people's self-determination was recognized (all in 1974), brought no change. The United States and most West European states continued to support Israel in its denial of the Palestinian people's national aspirations.

Q: String[] Array to another Activity through Intent (Main activity extends fragment class) EDIT Proper context
Ok so that its in the right context..my main activity has a fragment class, when the user gets to the fragment class, there is an OnClick method on the Main activity, which is where i put this code...
this is what I have tried
Activity 1
    context = this;
    db = new MyDBEmbrASD(this);
    List<ResourceTable> resources = db.getAllResource();
    String[] imgFPString = new String[resources.size()];
    String[] imgDrawable = new String[resources.size()];
    String[] temprdm = new String[resources.size()];

    //resources = db.getResources(); // you would not typically call this on     the main thread

    System.out.println("TESTESTESTESTESTEST");
    for (int i = 0; i < resources.size(); i++) {
        imgFPString[i] = resources.get(i).getimgFP();
        temprdm[i] = imgFPString[i];
        System.out.println(imgFPString[i]);
        imgDrawable[i] = "drawable-mdpi/" + imgFPString[i];
        System.out.println(imgDrawable[i]);
        temprdm[i] = imgFPString[i];
    }

    List<String> wordList = Arrays.asList(temprdm);
    Collections.shuffle(wordList);
    String[] myShuffledArray = wordList.toArray(new String[wordList.size()]);
    //int essonNumber = 1;
    System.out.println("testestest" + myShuffledArray[1]);
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, DragActivityV2.class);
    intent.putExtra("mStringArray", myShuffledArray);
    startActivity(intent);

Activity 2
Intent intent = getIntent();
String[] myShuffledArray = intent.getStringArrayExtra("mStringArray");
System.out.println("shfld array " + myShuffledArray[1]);

And i get an error
 Process: info.androidhive.tabsswipe, PID: 25068

A: try to use Bundle to send data to next activities with ArrayList. you can add into ArrayList by ArrayList<String> data = new ArrayList<String>(); and add values by data.add("my value");

A: If you don't want to use bundle mechanism then just do (assuming this is data passing between activity):
List<String> wordList = Arrays.asList(temprdm);
 intent.putStringArrayListExtra("mylist", (ArrayList<String>) wordList );

Then in the target activity
 ArrayList<String> test = getIntent().getStringArrayListExtra("mylist");

As for the communication between fragments and activity or communication between fragments, it  cannot be done straightfoward especially in the case where the fragments' activity is not their parent container (Usually, for activity to fragment we can get the instance of the fragment's parent activity through getActivity()). Thus android documentation introduced Communicating with Other Fragments, the idea is to construct an interface in the fragment and let activity implements it, once it's done you can do any operations within the methods that get overrided from the interface.
There's actually a kind of dummy approach, not recommended but it works(other than using listener interface). To make some properties can be passed from fragment to activity, make a separated class to hold some properties then make them static, class Holder { public static x,y,z; } with this approach, (the x, y and z values are the same accross different components, no matter how many Fragments / Activity you create), with this in mind, for example, in a Fragment you modify these values then in any Activity / Fragments you created you just need to access the values via Holder.x, Holder.y or so on...

Philodendron Schott (Araceae): Systematik und Evolution einer megadiversen Gattung aus der Neuen Welt
Canal Gallego, Dubán
Datum der Freigabe:
This investigation presents phylogenetic analyses of the genus Philodendron, the second largest genus of the "aroid family" and one of the most conspicuous components of Neotropical rainforests. The evolutionary relationships among Philodendron and the closely related genera Adelonema and Homalomena have remained ambiguous based on previous phylogenetic studies that analyzed plastid and nuclear DNA markers for a limited species coverage. Likewise, the evolutionary relationships among the three subgenera proposed within Philodendron (Meconostigma, Philodendron, and Pteromischum) remained unclear. Subgenus Meconostigma comprises 21 mostly terrestrial, arborescent species distributed in Amazonia, the Cerrado, and the Mata Atlântica. Subgenus Pteromischum includes 82 appressed-climbing vine species distributed mostly in Central America, the Chocó ecoregion and Amazonia. Subgenus Philodendron accounts for ~85% of the species diversity of the genus, mainly distributed in Central America, the Chocó ecoregion, the Andes and Amazonia. The extraordinary rich species diversity of subgenus Philodendron is currently organized in 10 sections, 12 subsections, and 11 series. The aim of the present study is to elucidate the phylogenetic relationships of Philodendron and its evolutionary history in the Neotropics. Therefore, a molecular dataset of three non-coding plastid DNA regions (petD, rpl16, and trnK/matK) was generated for 173 taxa (221 accessions) across the entire genus Philodendron. Subsequently, the phylogenetic relationships and monophyly of the subgenera were investigated by tree inferences using parsimony-based, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian-based approaches. In order to determine evolutionary time points of the origin of the most recent ancestor and the species diversification process of Philodendron, the well resolved and robustly supported phylogenetic tree was calibrated. Furthermore, analyses on diversification rate shifts through time and inferences of the geographic range evolution were conducted. In addition, the impact of the Andean orogeny on speciation, extinction and dispersal rates of Philodendron was assessed using geographic state-speciation and extinction model analysis. Finally, five morphological characters were analyzed across the phylogenetic tree to infer the ancestral character states. The results indicate that Philodendron and its three subgenera Meconostigma, Philodendron and Pteromischum are monophyletic. However, the relationships among the three subgenera remain moderately supported. The 12 clades recovered within subgenus Philodendron do not correspond to the current infrageneric classification. In contrast, clades recovered within subgenus Pteromischum correspond to the sections proposed. Divergence-time estimates revealed that Philodendron originated in the Oligocene, and diversified more recently from the middle Miocene onwards. Time-dependent diversification rate shift analyses revealed that the diversification process of Philodendron combines elements of the two models used to explain the origin of the extraordinary species diversity in the Neotropics: the "cradle" model, which postulates a more recent and faster diversification process (suggested for subgenus Philodendron), and the "museum" model, which assumes an older and more constant diversification process (suggested for subgenera Meconostigma and Pteromischum). Therefore, the present study indicates that the diversification process of Philodendron is more in line with a model of global episodic species turnover. Philodendron originated ~29 mya in the pan-Amazonian region. The three subgenera of Philodendron originated ~24 mya. Overall, the current geographic distribution of Philodendron is the result of multiple geographic range expansions: since the middle Miocene onwards from Amazonia to northwest South America and southeast Brazil; and more recently during the Miocene-Pliocene transition from the Chocó ecoregion to Central America, and from South America to the Caribbean islands. The fast species radiation of subgenus Philodendron is associated with the colonization of the Andes. Furthermore, this study demonstrates the indirect impact of the rise of the Andes from the middle Miocene onwards on the diversification process of plant lineages distributed in the adjacent lowland rainforests of the northern Andes (the Chocó ecoregion and western Amazonia). Inferences of the ancestral character-state indicate that the most recent common ancestor of Philodendron were climbing plants without cataphylls, with cordate blades, few locules per ovary and many ovules per locule. Overall, the present study represents a significant advance for a better understanding of the diversification process of the genus Philodendron in time and space and provides the comparative basis to gain insights into the evolution of plant lineages that are highly diverse in the Neotropical rainforest – one of the most endangered biomes on Earth.

Cut through the crispy yellow crust into succulent pink salmon, the natural oils from the fish oozing into the couscous to produce this wonderful topping.
1. Place the couscous, black pepper, turmeric, and dill into a small bowl. Pour over the boiling water and set aside until all the water has been absorbed.
2. Meanwhile, skin and pin-bone the salmon fillets. Place on a baking sheet.
3. Fork the couscous to mix and fluff. Spread evenly along the top of each salmon fillet.
Bake in the pr-heated oven for 15-20 minutes until cooked.


I've been a member in and served in a host of churches and denominations. In practically every church I've been in, there has been conflict over two issues: to clap or not to clap and raising your hands in worship.
Clappers and hand raisers are demonstrative in worship, taking literally the Bible's admonition to – well – clap and raise your hands. Clappers and hand-raisers can be a bit snooty in their zealous worship style with those who don't buy into their free expression with God.
The hands-at-your-sides-or-in-your-pockets crowd feel that all the noise and demonstrative worship does nothing but draw attention away from God and on to the worshiper. They can be a bit judgmental and self-righteous in their dignified piety.
I don't believe there is one person who doesn't have enough "day-by-day" obligations to distract us from God. That's why putting God on your "to-do" list next to the groceries, the kids' activities, and that client meeting doesn't work. He'll never make it up the list past all of the daily fires and responsibilities.
Don't let God be an item on your to-do list. Let Him be the paper on which you write the list. He should be behind everything that you do and present in every activity, every task, every meeting, every relationship, and every thought.
It's the difference between church being 'a good thing to do' and Jesus being Lord and master of your life.
Wendy and I enjoyed spending most of the weekend at church, attending Gary Thomas' Sacred Marriage conference. We had been asked to put together a skit as part of a kick-off to the weekend, so we wrote one and performed on Friday night. It went really well and we were encouraged that the skit reportedly added to everyone's experience.
I got through the seminar and realized that I really hadn't written too many notes. I don't remember much from the weekend, and certainly don't remember having any major revelations. Nevertheless, it was a great weekend of revisiting some important principles, talking about them, and renewing our commitment to making them a part of our every day relationship.
It's sort of like reading a chapter-a-day. Often times you read the same passage you've ready many times before – but it's still worthwhile. It gets your mind thinking on the right things and provides a little spiritual chiropractic – putting your mind and heart back in alignment.
…am I influencing my culture more than I'm being influenced by it?
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found – was blind, but now I see.

CZAS HONORU – Bartosz Chajdecki
September 1, 2013 Leave a comment Go to comments
Original Review by Jonathan Broxton
One of the most celebrated and popular Polish television series of all time, Czas Honoru (A Time of Honor) tells the story of a group of friends, their lives and loves, as they struggle to survive in Nazi-occupied Poland during World War II. Starring Maciej Zakoscielny, Jakub Wesolowski and Jan Wieczorkowski, the show has been a smash hit in its native country since it first began airing on the TVP network in 2008; now in its sixth season, it continues to attract large domestic audiences, has made stars of its lead actors, and helped launch the career of its composer, Bartosz Chajdecki.
Chajdecki was nominated for an IFMCA Award for his work on the third season of the show, and with music this good, it's not difficult to see why. The score is fully orchestral, fully orchestrated, and absolutely wonderful. The beautifully classical, piano-and-cello main title "Czołówka" features throughout a great deal of the score, either in direct thematic statements, or as deconstructed fragments embedded in other cues. A wonderfully rich polonaise, "Polonez", reflects the musical heritage of Poland's opulent past, and the love theme, "Miłość", has an elegant sweetness to it, with its clean and graceful cello lines, while the more dirge-like "Getto" encapsulates the drudgery of life in occupied Warsaw with insistent snare rhythms, but captures the sense of heroism and defiance of its people with a searching string theme and a tender oboe countermelody.
There's also some wonderfully stark, violent action music too. "Ucieczka" is a 5-minute tour-de-force of swirling string lines, thunderous brass blasts and chanted vocals interspersed with moody four-note interjections based on a deconstructed version of the main title. Later, "Pogoń" is a vivid chase cue full of movement and energy, with violas running band and forth over a con legno beat; when a male voice choir comes in half way through the cue chanting the name of the show, "czas honoru", accompanied by vicious brass blasts and low, low piano chords, the effect is startlingly good. The percussive lines return in dangerous, threatening "Zagrożenie", this time with an almost gypsy-like fiddle element fizzing over the top of more insistent vocals.
The commercial soundtrack for the show contains music from the first three seasons of the show; a promotional release containing music from Seasons 4, 5 and 6 was released in 2013. The promo is just as good as the commercial release, in that it takes the music heard on the regular release, and builds on it, while adding new themes and ideas to reflect the increasing scope of the show. "Going Forward" is a dramatic, thrusting piece which pits a surging string motif against a rhapsodic piano line and alternating brass phrasing, eventually emerging into a new variation on the main theme, in which the melody seems to have been inverted to give it a new spin.
"Peace" has a Lisa Gerrard/Lisbeth Scott vibe to it, with a sultry, almost Middle Eastern female vocal effect that speaks of loss and longing, while its counterpart "Fragile Peace" again features a female vocal, but this time with a more angelic aspect, cooing softly over a deconstructed statement of the Czas Honoru theme. "Sleeping with a Spy" starts off with a florid piano solo, before eventually emerging into a romantic string wash of passionate intent that builds towards an appropriately euphoric climax; it's sibling, "Spy", starts in similar fashion, but goes down a much darker road as it develops, with more intense strings, descending woodwind motifs, and a slightly harsh, metallic effect that gives the score an appropriate sense of intensity and tension.
There's action here too – "Conflict" is another one of those pulsating pieces with a scattershot, helter-skelter string beat and jazzy pianos, and even some more contemporary-sounding synth beats to give it some muscularity. The "Time Tango" takes the traditional instruments associated with that most exotic of dances – accordion, piano, strings, horns – and blends it into a piece of music which is one part ballroom seduction, one part Matrix action sequence, but is wholly something to behold. When the accordion starts to play a variation on the main theme during the cue's second half, you know you're listening to something special.

Stomatopathies
geriatric patients
Civilization diseases
Demographic forecasts for the Polish population indicate that in 2030 in Poland, that the elderly will constitute approximately 24% of the population. Functional dentition and providing physiological and social benefis are part of the physical and mental well-being of an elderly patient with missing dentition and general diseases.
The aim of the study is to discusses the most common ailments encountered in geriatric patients treated by dentists. Etiology, characteristics and treatment options for the described ailments are taken into account. In dental treated patients age over 60, the most common problems encountered are: stomatopathies, xerostomia and burning mouth syndrome (BMS). Stomatopathies werethe most common in diabetic patients, and in patients using removable or fixed prosthetic restorations.
Analysis of the assumed aims of the paper was carried out based on the available literature. Particular attention was paid to the most common complaints in elderly patients.
All the above-listed oral cavity health conditions affect the well-being, i.e. physical and mental health of a patient. Local pathological states, such as prosthetic stomatopathies, pass mainly by eliminating the cause of contact inflammation. Other ailments: periodontitis, BMS or xerostomia, are closely related to the general condition of the patient. Changes in the oral cavity depend on the intensity and stabilization of the general disease. His is the reason that a very important role is played by the attending physicians: diabetologists, neurologists or psychiatrists. The cooperation of a dentist with a general practitioner can significantly improve the health of geriatric patients.

There's something strange about the way the news captures breaking stories, reels you in and then just lets you go. Just recently, Christopher Dekki covered the ways that major breakthroughs are happening around the globe, namely the rise of great policies that re-contextualize the way new Sustainable Development Goals can promote, "people-centered, planet-sensitive policymaking" for generations to come. But have you heard of these world-changing policies before?
Part 1: Breaking the Story.
We don't need to scrutinize the daily news through a magnifying glass to see that the pervasive, general climate of media rhetoric is to perpetually bathe us in calamity and conflict. It's the culture of news outlets to break stories by grabbing you by the neck and pulling you real close to the hardest hitting implications of any event. Whether there are things that are yet to happen, or have already happened to entrench you into a sinkhole of damning consequences, there's always a compulsion to show you the impending "worse"-ness. It's the same cookie-cutter of some hard-hitting narrative being placed over and over again onto whatever looks like could fit.
Part 2: Reeling You In.
It's likely that the total sum of terrible things mentioned in the news and all the terrible things that could result from the original terrible things will never end. The facts are never good enough. The facts are never isolated enough from scrutiny.
"This apple is red." Well why isn't it green? Who grew it? There's probably one that tastes better. Why don't these two red ones look the same? What's the difference between a red apple and yellow apple? I only like red apples. Everyone hates red apples.
The little hamster wheel in our brains can never spin fast enough to understand the stories and facts quickly enough before another terrible event is mentioned.
Part 3: Letting You Go.
And it happens just like this. Just when it was getting juicy it just ends. It always does. Surely, nobody is actually hurt by everything that's happened. Are you? Did it mean anything to begin with? What were those facts even about? Apples? Sustainable development goals? The tendency for written articles to draw severe consequences seemingly about nothing? Terrible things.
And let me tell you about this one terrible thing – called awful, news rhetoric – that you may or may not have heard of, it's something that is probably wrong, but we're not entirely sure at this point if or how it's wrong, but it seems like it's part of some type of pattern that could happen again. And you know what it means when there's a pattern: well, more terrible things.

This is not a drill! Dead or Alive 6 has been announced!
News by Matt S.
Koei Tecmo has announced Dead or Alive 6. We all knew it was coming, but now we have a trailer and stuff. And it looks good.
Weirdly enough, though, it doesn't focus on the sexiness, which is, of course, Dead or Alive's hallmark. Instead, from this trailer, there's blood and stuff, and the women are dressed... conservatively, but this franchise's standards. Is that because Koei Tecmo has made this trailer to tap into the western market's interest in games around E3? Or is it a toning down of the series as a whole? Either way, you can be sure the DLC costumes and the like won't be so circumspect.
What is exciting to see is just how good the character models are. Even at this stage, they're better than any other fighting game out there. We're also promised new characters, though the reveal trailer only features six returning characters: Ryu Hayabusa, Kasumi, Hayate, Helena, Jann Lee and Zack.
So we can now settle in for the inevitable drip feed as we wait for Koei Tecmo to announce characters we actually care about - like Marie Rose - and the inevitable swimwear reveals. Hopefully Koei Tecmo makes good on that Hatsune Miku collaboration the company teased a few years ago, too. She's gonna look gooooooood.
The game releases in early 2019, and we'll get more info on it on June 11.

Thanks to a Fahrudin Mustafic's penalty that placed the Stags on a goal lead before half-time did the trick calm some nerves and eventually retain the title.
Nonetheless, kudos to the Tampines players, who got over that heartbreak Cup loss days ago, for staying resilient throughout the evening and ensured the 15-kilogram trophy remain within the Republic boundary.

Awka—ANAMBRA State government and some local government areas in the state may be up in arms over the control of markets, as the state Commissioner for Trade and Commerce, Dr. Christian Madubuko insisted yesterday that local governments had no powers to authorise individuals to construct markets in any part of the state. Chief Willie Obiano The commissioner, who spoke while parading three persons, including a chief in Aguata Local Government Area, Chief Francis Eze who was allegedly involved in illegal revenue collection, said the state had consistently made it clear that revenue collection in the markets had been banned. Eze had claimed that following the overflowing of Aguata market at Ekwulobia, he bought a piece of land at a cost of N5.2 million and had also spent about N3 million to construct 20 stalls after receiving approval from Aguata local government to construct the market. PDP chieftain urges more synergy to address insecurity in Benue According to him, the market is his private business, adding that he thought the approval he got from the local government was enough to operate the market. He said he used the money collected from the traders to expand the market, adding that he informed a traditional ruler in the area who advised him to approach the local government for approval before he embarked on the project. However, the commissioner regretted that although the state government had banned all levies in the state, some people were still going about extorting huge sums of money from unsuspecting traders. He said: "From what Chief Eze is saying, you can see that they are earning a living from innocent traders and we are doing our best to stop them. These people are flouting the state government orders, but today, luck ran against them and they were arrested. "Local governments do not have authority to approve the construction of markets because the state government had told all local governments that for them to give such approval, they must first liaise with the ministry of trade and commerce. I want to state that we have not authorised anybody to build any market in the area." He described the suspects as "criminals who had formed the habit of disobeying government orders.

Q: How to smooth the contour using Python I am working on a detection problem and I have found the mask of the object using cv2.findContours(). However, the found contour has a lot of noise and isn't smooth while the requirement is that it has to be smooth so we can use that smooth contour for our next step.
The obtained mask
The curve I want (the red line)
I have tried cv2.approxPolyDP() to reduce the noise but it is no longer a curve. I was asked to find a smooth curve.
The curve after using cv2.approxPolyDP()
Is there any way to do it?

Flights of freedom chime with history
A STEADY breeze was blowing over Cairn o' Mount and, as I neared the summit, what appeared to be a parachute rose from the ground with a figure hanging below it. I stopped in the car park to watch.
It was a paraglider and Paolo, the instructor from the Sky Camp paragliding school in Deeside, explained that it was a novice flying on his first soaring flight. I watched him using the suspension lines and the lift of the wind to track across the brae face of the Cairn.
"Tonight he will be a very happy man", was Paolo's comment. I thought how exciting it must be for him, a free spirit having control of the freedom of the skies. But I had to press on as I had an appointment to keep near Finzean, in the Forest of Birse.
Well versed
Regular readers know of my interest in the Scottish vernacular poetry, ballads and songs written in the Doric of the north-east. My destination was Finzean Sawmill to meet Davie Duncan who, for seventy years, has worked the sawmill as did his father and grandfather before him. I was looking forward to our meeting for his reputation as a storehouse of an enviable fund of poetry, much of which he could recite, had preceded him.
The tone of the afternoon was set by springer spaniel Rex, one of the couthiest dogs I've met in a lifetime of dogs, who bounded out to greet me. Rex has a great inclination towards his fellow creatures, human or otherwise, and radiates friendliness.
The mill is a historic, water-powered sawmill taking its power from the River Feugh. It is working at reduced capacity meantime as the weir above the mill, which controls the flow of water, was washed away in the floods of January 2016 and is still not fully repaired.
The 2016 floods were amongst the worst since the Muckle Spate o' Twenty-nine (1829). In 1851 David Grant, who worked at the sawmill, composed the story of the Muckle Spate which resulted from a prolonged rainstorm, causing unprecedented flooding on the same River Feugh.
The poem runs to dozens of verses and Davie can recite them from memory but, as it takes more than half an hour to do so – an astonishing feat – he chose a shorter one – The Molly Coo.
A fairmer chiel, auld Willie Broon, / Nae five mile oot o' Huntly toon, / Ae nicht afore he wid retire, / Wid hae a traivel through the byre. / There, streekit oot amang the strae, / The Molly Coo, his favourite, lay…..
The Molly Coo was in labour and the poem goes on to tell the story of the birth of her calf, and the dilemma fairmer Willie Broon faces when an attractive female vet – an unprecedented event in his life – arrived to assist.
In response I recited Montrose poet Helen Cruickshank's three verse Shy Geordie, from her collection The Ponnage Pool.
At an age when most folk are enjoying retirement Davie still works the family sawmill. In its heyday much of the output was for the fishing industry, making bungs for barrels into which Scotch cured herring were packed for export round the world.
He gave me the staggering statistic that a man could turn out 14,000 bungs a day. If he had said a week, I'd have accepted it without question.
With the decline in the Scottish herring fishery the Duncans turned to making brush heads – byre brushes, road brushes, sweeping brushes, chimney sweep brushes – anything that needed bristles. Also turning egg cups, rolling pins, tattie chappers and spurtles for stirring your porridge as it is hottering on the stove.
The sawmill is a fascinating building, a part of our architectural and social history, and there must be concern at what will happen when Davie retires, although he gives no hint of being ready to do so soon.
I had a most instructive afternoon. I said my farewells and went home with my own spurtle turned by Davie on the water-powered lathe as we chatted. In the wintertime I make porridge for my breakfast most mornings and I'll be stirring it now with my Finzean spurtle.
Twilight bell
There's been controversy at the silencing of Big Ben for four years while restoration is carried out on the Elizabeth Tower which houses the great 13 tonne bell. I believe I may have a solution.
From time immemorial Montrose's Big Peter, the curfew bell which was cast in 1676 and hangs in Old & St Andrew's Church, the Auld Kirk, is rung 200 times every evening at 10pm. Link the Auld Kirk belfry to the Elizabeth Tower and Londoners can share Montrose's evening carillon. With Big Peter's gentler tone there wouldn't be the issues of excessive noise which seem to be associated with Big Ben.
Big Ben may have resonance but Big Peter has seniority, and what an innovative opportunity for cross-cultural cooperation.
And it wouldn't seem such a frivolous suggestion if someone made it happen.

Q: Why if $H_5$ acts on $H_{17}$ by conjugation, this means that $5$ should divide $16$? I am trying to understand the relation between the action of a group on one another and the order of the groups, here is a statement said to me by my professor:
"if $H_5$ acts on $H_{17}$ by conjugation, this means that $5|16$ which can not happen." where $H_5$ is a group of prime order $5$ and $H_{17}$ is a group of prime order $17.$
I know that $16$ is the order of the group of automorphisms of $H_{17},$ but still, I did not get what my professor said. Could anyone tell me what theorem says what my professor says?

A: If $H_5$ acts non-trivially on $H_{17}$ by automorphisms, then there is a homomorphism from $H_5$ to $H_{17}^×$, the automorphism group of $H_{17}$, whose order is $16$.  Of course,  if the kernel is not $H_5$, then it's trivial.   There's a couple ways to see that then $5\mid16$.  You could use the first isomorphism theorem,  but you might as well just note that the order of the image of any element in $H_5$ has to be $5$.  But it also has to divide $16$, by Lagrange.

Q: Javascript array of points how to curve fit? I have an array of points, each point consists of a x and y, the x is a timestamp, y is the actual data.
I have created a time series plot in Javascript and I would like to curve fit the data and draw the curve.
Can anyone help me to achieve this?
My list of points:
    {fltX: 0, fltY: 55.932203389830505}
    {fltX: 1.8237082066869301, fltY: 55.932203389830505}
    {fltX: 3.6474164133738602, fltY: 55.932203389830505}
    {fltX: 5.47112462006079, fltY: 55.932203389830505}
    {fltX: 7.2948328267477205, fltY: 81.35593220338983}

The X co-ordinates have already been scaled to the X axis.  I'm not looking for someone to write the code for me, however a good tutorial or guide would be very much appreciated.

A: You may be interested in genetic-js. To quote from the project page:

From a plot of vertices, this genetic algorithm optimizes a continious
  function to best fit the data (aka least squared error). Genetic.js
  automatically runs the algorithm in the background with web workers so
  that the UI experience isn't compromised.

An elaborate example is available here.

A: Alglib.js seems like a good tool for what you need.
I used your points to fit a cubic spline in JSFiddle
import {Alglib} from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/Pterodactylus/Alglib.js@master/Alglib-v1.1.0.js'

var f = function(a_n, x){
    return a_n[3]*Math.pow(x, 3)+a_n[2]*Math.pow(x, 2)+a_n[1]*Math.pow(x, 1)+a_n[0];
}

let data = [[0, 55.932203389830505],
[1.8237082066869301, 55.932203389830505],
[3.6474164133738602, 55.932203389830505],
[5.47112462006079, 55.932203389830505],
[7.2948328267477205, 81.35593220338983]]

var fn1 = function(a){
    let sum = 0
    for (let i = 0; i < data.length; ++i) {
        sum = sum + Math.pow(data[i][1] - f(a, data[i][0]), 2)
    }
    let sse = Math.sqrt(sum)
    return sse
}

let solver = new Alglib()
solver.add_function(fn1) //Add the first equation to the solver.
solver.promise.then(function(result) {
    var x_guess = [1,1,1,1] //Guess the initial values of the solution.
    var s = solver.solve("min", x_guess) //Solve the equation
    let a=solver.get_results()
})

This produces an array of the polynomial coefficients:
a = [55.56900613862207, 4.812852278721678, -2.7300497536471293, 0.3492941022929858]

A: An HTML5 canvas may tackle your need:
Javascript:
var hpms = {};

hpms.Graph = function( canvasId ) {
   this.MARGIN  = 30;
   this.canvas  = document.getElementById( canvasId );
   this.ctx     = this.canvas.getContext("2d");
   this.offsetY = this.canvas.height - this.MARGIN;
};

hpms.Graph.prototype.drawAxis = function( canvas ) {
   this.ctx.beginPath();
   this.ctx.moveTo( 0                , this.offsetY );
   this.ctx.lineTo( this.canvas.width, this.offsetY );
   this.ctx.moveTo( this.MARGIN, this.canvas.height );
   this.ctx.lineTo( this.MARGIN, 0 );

   var dx     = ( this.canvas.width - 2*this.MARGIN ) / 3;
   var yText  = this.offsetY + 3*this.MARGIN/4;

   var x      = this.MARGIN + dx;
   var legend = "1 year";
   this.ctx.moveTo( x, 0 );
   this.ctx.lineTo( x, this.offsetY + this.MARGIN/2 );
   x -= this.ctx.measureText( legend ).width/2;
   this.ctx.strokeText( legend, x, yText );

   x = this.MARGIN + 2*dx;
   this.ctx.moveTo( x, 0 );
   this.ctx.lineTo( x, this.offsetY + this.MARGIN/2 );
   legend = "2 years";
   x -= this.ctx.measureText( legend ).width/2;
   this.ctx.strokeText( legend, x, yText );

   x = this.MARGIN + 3*dx;
   this.ctx.moveTo( x, 0 );
   this.ctx.lineTo( x, this.offsetY + this.MARGIN/2 );
   legend = "3 years";
   x -= this.ctx.measureText( legend ).width/2;
   this.ctx.strokeText( legend, x, yText );

   var dy = 4;
   for( var y = 0; y < this.offsetY; y += 100 ) {
      this.ctx.moveTo( this.MARGIN/2    , this.offsetY - y );
      this.ctx.lineTo( this.canvas.width, this.offsetY - y );
      legend = "" + y;
      this.ctx.strokeText( legend, 0, this.offsetY - y + dy );
   }

   this.ctx.closePath();
   this.ctx.lineCap     = "round";
   this.ctx.lineWidth   = 1;
   this.ctx.strokeStyle = "lightgray";
   this.ctx.stroke();
};

hpms.Graph.prototype.drawLinear = function( fn, color ) {
   this.ctx.beginPath();
   this.ctx.strokeStyle = color;
   this.ctx.lineWidth   = 5;
   this.ctx.moveTo( this.MARGIN, this.offsetY - fn.b );
   var x = this.canvas.width - 2*this.MARGIN;
   var y = fn.a*x + fn.b;
   this.ctx.lineTo( this.MARGIN + x, this.offsetY - y );
   this.ctx.closePath();
   this.ctx.stroke();
}

function draw() {
   var g = new hpms.Graph("canvas");
   g.drawAxis  ();
   g.drawLinear({a:0.25, b:200}, "darkgray");
   g.drawLinear({a:0.80, b: 30}, "rgb(16,65,96)");
}

Oh, hi folks. Yeah, once again I went MIA. What have I been up to?
Tommy had his first birthday, we went to Florida for 10 days. Disney World happened which was kind of amazing. I almost had a tan for a few days (Don't worry - it abruptly changed to freckles).
I got a free Roomba. Best thing ever, for realsies. I decided to try to grow a garden.
I joined a gym. Yesterday my friend made Long Island ice teas and today I have a headache.
Basically, it's been a hoot.

WHEN I CONSUME YOU: A Review
HomeAll Posts...WHEN I CONSUME YOU: A Review

In the face of tragedy, there is a tendency for people to search for meaning. An answer to 'why did this happen to me?' People have a difficult time accepting that sometimes bad things just happen. Perry Blackshear's latest effort When I Consume You is exquisitely brutal yet utterly beautiful examination of this phenomenon.
When I Consume You is the story of Daphne and Wilson Shaw, a sister and brother living in New York City. Three things are quickly made apparent in this film: Daphne and Wil are extremely close (something made perfectly clear by the absolute gorgeous chemistry between actors Libby Ewing and Evan Dumouchel), but they're having a rough go of things. Daphne, despite being five years sober, is still struggling to shake the stigma of addiction, and Wil is having a difficult time advancing his career beyond that of a janitor. The third thing that we soon learn is that their childhood was far from ideal. Hints of abuse and worse are dropped here and there, and the two find themselves ensnared in a struggle with something sinister and supernatural that, unbeknownst to Wil, has been stalking the two of them since childhood, something that may (or may not) be behind a recent tragedy in their lives. It is this struggle to understand the cause of that tragedy that forms the narrative of the film.
Blackshear is adept at making films that are somehow horrifyingly grim while being almost unbearably tender. Even when dealing with themes of loss and grief and mental illness, there's always something almost hopeful about his films. In this case, it's the bond between the Shaw siblings. Despite the myriad problems of their lives, the love and admiration the two have for each other is achingly endearing. Wil speaks of his sister being the strongest person he knows, and there's a moment in the film when a social worker interviewing Daphne for an adoption application mentions the only family she has is her brother Wil, and Daphne replies with "Yeah he's the best. You can write down that I said that." It's such a simple but powerful moment in the film, one that Ewing gives a tremendous amount of weight to with absolute ease. It's this theme of "us against the world" between the two that really makes this film wonderful to watch unfold.
The flipside to that is, of course, the horror of the film. And there is plenty of it. Similarly to Blackshear's feature debut They Look Like People (which we did an episode of Horror Business on) When I Consume You takes a more restrained route to making the viewer uncomfortable. There is the occasional bit of outright horrifying imagery, but often Blackshear utilizes a quiet brand of grotesque to get under our skin. A rough whisper for a voice. A slightly unsteady wobbling gait for a walk. People on the street with hidden features clearly up to no good. Even the way Blackshear shoots New York City seems sinister, like a more washed-up Gotham City, or Larry Cohen's New York City in modern times. Nothing straight up scary but more just gently unsettling. The kind of imagery that hits a chord inside of you in a way you can't quite explain but you know it's frightening.
There's a lot of existential horror in this film as well (in one scene Dumouchel suffers one of the most realistic depictions of a panic attack I've ever seen committed to film) and it all mixes together to create a very effective atmosphere of dread. The whole film just feels laden with melancholy and fear, and while it's unpleasant it makes for an extremely immersive film that is very satisfying as a cinematic experience.
The characters in this film are brought to life by an exceedingly talented team of actors. Blackshear's own personal dynamic duo of Evan Dumouchel and MacLeod Andrews are fantastic as usual. Dumouchel gives life to the character of Wil Shaw as a man who is utterly adrift, unable to function in a world that feels completely hostile. Wil doesn't come off as childish so much as child-like, innocent in a tragic way. The viewer gets the feeling that Wil is capable of great things if he could just catch a break, or even a moment to catch his breath. Dumouchel imbues Wil with a very muted but clear sense of integrity; in layman's terms, Wil is your archetypical Good Dude. Unfortunately, he is a good man existing in a world that is at best entirely apathetic to his pain and at worst gleefully doing its best to encourage such pain. Dumouchel's performance is not glamourous, or stylish, or pretty. It is exactly the way someone in the real world would look and act in such a situation. It is ugly and unlovely and awkward to behold but at the same time it is an absolute treasure to witness. Andrews is a blast to watch as a sleazy street monster, a slinking predator of a person looking disdainfully out at the world through Wayfarers in the middle of the night, an unkempt Cheshire cat creature doing god knows what on the backstreets of New York City. He alternates between concerned friend to salivating carnivore, from a cackling trickster to a deadly serious monstrosity. He almost effortlessly creates a character that isn't human but can barely pass as one and it is very creepy. Libby Ewing, despite portraying the younger sister of Wil Shaw, gives Daphne Shaw incredibly wholesome Big Sister vibes. Her character worships the ground her brother walks on and is genuinely distraught at how down on himself he is, something that Ewing executes so perfectly that you can actually feel the pain in their interactions. The sadness in her voice when she speaks to him and of him is almost tear inducing, and the frustration she exhibits when Wil doubts himself is relatable to anyone who's ever dealt with someone they think the world of expressing their own doubt of their abilities. And her moments of vulnerability, when she stops being the Tough Older Sister and opens up about how her hopes and dreams of living a long life "in a world I finally loved", they are the proverbial chef's kiss.
The theme of grief and how we process it is a prevalent theme of this film. Wil's quest to understand a recent tragedy in his life leads to an interesting examination of a common occurrence in the world. Namely, our tendency to reject the chaos of life and instead try and find a justification or reason for tragedy. People struggle with the idea that sometimes bad shit happens to good people without any sort of agency behind it. The human mind is uncomfortable with the idea of randomness. It seeks patterns where the very well may be none. It's the phenomenon behind conspiracy theories: there has to be some grand conspiracy behind 9/11 because it couldn't have simply been a group of religious zealots that carried out a horrendous attack that killed 3000 innocent people. That can't just happen there has to be more to it. The anguish and frustration that Wil experiences as the result of tragedy is a microcosm of that same phenomenon. Indeed, it's not unreasonable to say that the latter two thirds of this film don't actually occur in the real world and are instead Wil fantasizing about some insidious cause to his pain. But, regardless of whether the events of the film happen, they take the viewer on a ride of different genres that fit the stages of Wil's grieving. He drifts through the New York City night, looking for answers, drunk most of the time, and eventually falls into archaic occult rituals to try and find answers. In the process the film goes from being a noir detective story to something almost like a Clive Barker story, but the idea of grief being something we must learn to live with in some way is always at the forefront. It is first and foremost a rumination on this idea: learning to live with and accept the trauma caused by grief, and to understand that no matter the cause the result remains the same. It is not a film that promises a happy ending, but instead a film that encourages us to work towards one. There is a scene at the end of the film that speaks of grief and pain being ever present in our lives, and it reminded me of the idea of a recovering addict in that every day is a struggle to deal with this thing in your life that is causing you pain, and that it never entirely goes away but is instead something we must constantly adjust to and learn to live with.
When I Consume You is not an easy film to watch. It is awkward and uncomfortable. It takes us down into and back up again through the process of dealing with loss. It occasionally veers into the utterly fantastic but somehow always feels entirely relatable and despite being extremely ugly at times it is also a profoundly beautiful film that finds a joy in letting go and moving on from the things that caused us pain. That ugliness may always be there, but there is always something else that is beautiful to look at instead of the ugliness.
