We are delighted to announce that as of the 29th March 2019, global credit rating agency A.M. Best has upgraded Partners Life's Financial Strength Rating to A- (Excellent) from B++ (Good), and has upgraded Partners Life's Long-term Issuer Credit Rating to 'a-' from 'bbb+'. The outlook of these ratings is stable.
In response to the conduct and culture report on the life insurance industry, Managing Director, Naomi Ballantyne, shares her thoughts with the NZ Herald that cutting commissions won't fix adviser problems.
In the Summer issue of JUNO Magazine - Naomi Ballantyne, Managing Director, asked the younger members of her Partners Life team about insurance if you're under 35.
You may be aware that there is currently a Royal Commission investigation being undertaken in Australia into the conduct of the Financial Services Industry. The results so far have been pretty damning about the behaviour of both banks and other financial institutions towards their customers.
We're called Partners Life for a reason: your policy with us is much more than a piece of paper, it's a partnership. That partnership is the foundation of everything that happens between us and is important throughout the course of your policy, from your first discussions with an adviser, through changes in your life or career, and when we support you in making a claim.
Being fair when it counts!
There are many moving parts to an insurance company with each one of the different departments performing their own crucial role. Undoubtedly though, from a client perspective, none is more critical than Claims. The entire lifecycle of a policy – from initial sale to year-on-year servicing – are all in anticipation of the moment you need to claim on your policy.

Journalist jailed on coup charges says his health deteriorates
73-year old journalist Şahin Alpay says he was told he needs to have an angiogram by a cardiologist who recently examined him
Political science professor and former Zaman columnist Şahin Alpay, who has been imprisoned on "coup" related charges for more than a year, has said his health condition is getting worse.
In an open letter published by the Platform for Independent Journalism (P24), the 73-year old journalist shared details of his health condition. Recalling that he was first taken into police custody on July 27, 2016 and later arrested and placed in pretrial detention on July 30, 2017, Alpay listed various conditions that he has suffered from for a long time. He said he was diagnosed with a spinal hernia in 1986, and he had managed the condition doing physical exercises ordered by his doctor. Alpay also wrote that he had been sleeping with the aid of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine for the past 20 years, due to his sleep apnea. He said he had been allowed to use this device both while under custody and at Silivri prison.
The journalist also said he had been taking medication for ten years to treat his diabetes, high cholesterol, high uric acid and also had fatty liver disease, benign enlargement of the prostate, excess modules in his thyroid glands, a narrowing of the arteries in the neck, a cyst located outside his skull. He said in 2016, he underwent colonoscopy and endoscopy operations, which led to a diagnosis of colitis of the colon, gastritis and internal hemorrhoids.
He said he was recently advised to have a biopsy for a dermatological spot, but he had refused hoping that he would one day be released. He said he had had a benign growth in his leg removed at Silivri State Prison and listed a number of other conditions, including cataracts, hearing loss, excessive dryness in the eyes.
Alpay said he was on anti-depressants, prescribed by the prison psychiatrist, which he said were very helpful.
However, he said he underwent a cardiology examination at Silivri State Hospital, and said he was told to have an angiogram without too much delay following a cardiac stress test. "Only a few months ago, I could easily continue my walks of an hour a day. Now, I can't do more than 30 minutes. It appears that some negative developments have taken place in my coronary arteries," he wrote.
"I wasn't in good health when I entered Silivri, and now after 15 months, it is getting worse."
He said his applications to the Constitutional Court demanding his release for his health reasons were rejected. He recalled his pending application at the European Court of Human Rights, saying it wasn't clear when the European Court will rule on his case.
Alpay stated that a recommendation by the Forensic Council of Medicine on whether he is fit to serve time in prison will not emerge before December 8, the next scheduled session in his trial being heard by the Istanbul 13th High Criminal Court.
He finally wrote: "My age is rather advanced. I don't hope to live for many years given that I have several chronic diseases and that my health is increasingly getting worse. I expect first the İstanbul 13th High Criminal Court; if not that court than the Constitutional Court, to make it possible for me to live out the rest of my life with my wife, children and grandchildren by releasing me on bail."

\section{Introduction}

Most stars are born in massive star-forming regions (MSFRs); the most
massive stars live out their short lives in this environment and
eventually transform it when they explode as supernovae.  In the
meantime, they have a profound influence on their natal neighborhood,
generating HII regions and wind-blown bubbles and often triggering new
generations of stars to form in the surrounding molecular clouds.  The
kinetic power of a massive O-star's winds injected into its stellar
neighborhood over its lifetime equals that input in its supernova
explosion; essentially from the moment they are born high-mass stars
cause changes in their environment on parsec scales.

X-ray observations probe different energetic components of MSFRs than
traditional optical and IR studies.  Stars of virtually all masses and
stages emit X-rays in their youth, although the mechanisms for X-ray
emission vary with stellar mass.  For OB stars excavating an HII region
within their nascent molecular cloud, diffuse X-rays may be generated
as fast winds shock the surrounding media \citep{Weaver77}; we have
recently discovered such diffuse emission with X-ray observations of
M~17 and the Rosette Nebula \citep{Townsley03}.  X-ray studies also
detect the presence of past supernovae through the shocks in their
extended remnants.

{\em Chandra} and its Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) camera
give us the sensitivity, spatial resolution, and broad bandpass to
detect diffuse X-ray emission generated by these high-mass stars and to
separate it from the hundreds of pre-main sequence X-ray-emitting stars
seen in these fields.  {\em Chandra} routinely penetrates heavy
obscuration ($A_V > 100$~mag) with little source confusion or
contamination from unrelated objects to reveal the young stellar
populations in MSFRs.  Before the {\em Chandra} era, the relative X-ray
contributions of high-mass and low-mass stars, OB winds, and supernova
remnant shocks in these regions were largely unknown.

Through the {\em Chandra} General Observer and Guaranteed Time
programs, we are pursuing a multi-year study of MSFRs, cataloguing and
characterizing the point source populations \citep[e.g.][]{Getman05} as
well as searching for diffuse emission.  Last year we reviewed our {\em
Chandra} observations of M17, RCW49, and W51A \citep{Townsley04}.  We
show other examples of our program in this contribution, presenting new
results for W3, W51A IRS2E, Trumpler 14 in Carina, and 30 Doradus in
the LMC.

\section{W3}

W3 is an obscured complex of high-mass stars, H~II regions, and
associated molecular clouds situated 2.3~kpc from the Sun, part of a
vast star formation complex also containing the W4 superbubble, the
massive stellar clusters IC~1805, IC~1795, and NGC~896, and several
unnamed IR clusters \citep{Carpenter00}.  It is bordered to the west by
HB3, a very large, evolved supernova remnant (SNR), which is clearly
seen in the {\em ROSAT} All-Sky Survey image and was observed with {\em
Einstein} \citep{Leahy85}.  Radio studies \citep{Routledge91} suggest
that the SNR shock has not yet reached the W3 H~II regions, but it is
influencing the distribution of CO in the W3 molecular cloud.
\citet{Lada78} and \citet{Thronson85} argued that star formation in W3
is being induced by the expansion of W4, which is sweeping up molecular
gas into a high-density layer, within which stars are forming.
\citet{Oey05} propose that the young (3--5 Myr) OB cluster IC~1795,
triggered to form by W4, is blowing its own second-generation
superbubble at the molecular cloud interface, triggering in turn the W3
MSFR.

\times 17^\prime$, or $\sim 11$~pc on a side.
{\bf Right:}  A zoomed image of W3 Main, showing the large number of young, embedded stars revealed by this observation.
 }
 \label{fig:w3}
\end{figure}

A 40-ksec {\em Chandra} observation of W3 Main using the ACIS imaging
array (ACIS-I) revealed the ionizing sources for many of its HII
regions and over 200 point sources \citep{Hofner02}.  We have recently
obtained more {\em Chandra}/ACIS-I observations of W3 Main and the
adjacent field W3(OH) (Figure~\ref{fig:w3}), showing a rich stellar
population around W3 Main, the older cluster IC~1795 (perhaps
exhibiting soft diffuse emission), and several small embedded clusters
in and around W3(OH).  The W3(OH) field is noticeably lacking in
sources compared to the W3 Main field.  Although partly an obscuration
effect, this also illustrates the intrinsic difference in the size of
these clusters; hard X-rays are largely unaffected by the obscuring
material so the 2--8~keV (green) component in Figure~\ref{fig:w3} reflects
an intrinsic difference in cluster size between W3(OH) and W3 Main.

\section{W51A and the Enigmatic Source IRS2E}

W51 is one of the most massive star-forming complexes in the Galaxy but
is difficult to observe because of its distance ($\sim 7$~kpc) and high
obscuration.  Our 72-ksec {\em Chandra}/ACIS observation of W51A
\citep{Townsley04} detected many of the known radio HII regions
\citep{Mehringer94} as diffuse X-ray sources.  We also see $\sim 450$
point sources, revealing the highest-mass and youngest inhabitants
fueling the HII regions and just emerging from their dusty natal
cocoons.

Buried in one of the youngest and richest high-mass complexes,
G49.5-0.4, we have discovered an enigmatic hard X-ray source at the
center of an embedded high-mass stellar cluster
(Figure~\ref{fig:w51}).  CXOW51~J192340.1+143105 is spatially
coincident with a deeply-embedded mid-IR source \citep{Kraemer01} known
as IRS2 East (IRS2E).  It is surrounded by powerful masers and
ultra-compact HII regions yet has no associated radio HII region
itself.  Evidence for infall is seen in this region \citep{Sollins04}.

\begin{figure}[hbt]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.35\textwidth]{fig2_left_bit.ps}
\protect\hspace{0.5in}

point spread function, is shown, as is the cometary HII region W51d.
The locations of the UCHII region W51d2 and the strong SiO maser are
noted.
{\bf Right:}  ACIS spectrum of W51 IRS2E:  the upper panel shows the source
spectrum and model fit; the lower panel shows the fit residuals.
}
\label{fig:w51}
\end{figure}

IRS2E emits most of its X-ray photons in a broad 6.5-keV line probably
due to fluorescent iron.  Although common in AGN, this type of X-ray
spectrum is highly unusual for stellar sources, as it requires an
embedded source with substantial emission above the iron absorption
edge (7.1~keV).  Such a hard X-ray spectrum could be generated by
colliding winds in a massive cluster \citep{Canto00}, but the X-ray
emission of IRS2E varies by a factor of two in 40~ksec, ruling out the
cluster explanation.  We suspect that it is a colliding wind binary,
perhaps a younger version of Eta Carinae \citep{Corcoran04} or HD~5980, a
luminous blue variable in the SMC \citep{Naze02}.  The absence of an
HII region around this source suggests that it is very young.

\section{Trumpler 14 in Carina}

The Carina complex, at a distance of $\sim$2.8~kpc \citep{Tapia03}, is
a remarkably rich star-forming region at the edge of a giant molecular
cloud (GMC), containing 8 open clusters with at least 64 O stars, 2
Wolf-Rayet stars, and the luminous blue variable Eta Carinae
\citep{Feinstein95}.  {\em ISO} discovery of 22$\mu$m grains in the
bright radio HII region Carina I may imply that a supernova occurred in
this region \citep{Chan00}; the presence of WR stars also may indicate
past supernovae, although no well-defined remnant has ever been seen.

Tr~14 is an extremely rich, young ($\sim$1~My), compact OB cluster near
the center of the Carina complex, containing at least 30 O and early B
stars \citep{Vazquez96}.  Tr~14 is probably at the same distance as its
neighboring, equally rich cluster Trumpler~16 but is thought to
be younger \citep{Walborn95}.  These two clusters contain
the highest concentration of O3 stars known in the Galaxy; their
ionizing flux and winds may be fueling a bipolar superbubble
\citep{Smith00}.

An {\em Einstein} X-ray study of the Carina star-forming complex was
performed by \citet{Seward82}.  They detected $\sim$30 point sources,
mostly individual high-mass stars and the collective emission from
unresolved cluster cores.  They also detected diffuse emission
pervading the entire region and speculated that it may be due to O star
winds.  Based on experience with {\em Chandra}, we now know that
thousands of the lower-mass stars in these young clusters were likely
to be contributing to the diffuse flux seen in the {\em Einstein}
data.  A major goal of our {\em Chandra} observation was to resolve out a
significant fraction of this point source emission so a better
determination of the spatial and spectral characteristics of the
diffuse component can be made.

\begin{figure}[hbt]

\caption{
{\bf Left:}  A smoothed image (red = 0.5--2~keV, blue = 2--8~keV) of
the 57-ksec ACIS observation of Tr~14 in Carina, with the cluster
imaged on the ACIS-I array ($17^\prime \times 17^\prime$, or $\sim
14$~pc on a side at D = 2.8~kpc) and bright diffuse emission seen in
the off-axis S2 and S3 CCDs (each $8.5^\prime \times 8.5^\prime$).  We
find $\sim 1600$ point sources on the I array plus extensive diffuse
emission across the whole field.

I array (covering $\sim 250$~pc on a side at D = 50~kpc); the large
shell 30~Dor~C, the Honeycomb SNR, and SN1987A are seen in the off-axis
CCDs S3 and S4.  Bright, soft diffuse emission dominates the entire
field.
}
\label{fig:cavity}
\end{figure}

The aimpoint of our 57-ksec ACIS observation of Tr~14
(Figure~\ref{fig:cavity} left) was the central star in the cluster,
HD~93129AB, a very early-type (O2I--O3.5V) binary \citep{Walborn02},
with the two components separated by $\sim 1^{\prime\prime}$.  Since
these are resolved in the ACIS data, we can see that the two components
have very different spectra; HD~93129B shows a typical O-star X-ray
spectrum ($kT = 0.5$~keV, or $T \sim 6$~MK), while HD~93129A shows a
similar soft component ($kT = 0.6$~keV) but also exhibits a much harder
component, with $kT = 3.0$~keV ($T \sim 35$~MK), and is ten times
brighter in X-rays than HD~93129B.  This hard spectrum and high X-ray
luminosity are indicative of a colliding-wind binary \citep{PPL02}; in
fact HD~93129A was recently discovered to be a spectroscopic binary
\citep{Nelan04}.  Additionally, while the O3V star HD~93128 is soft and
fainter in X-rays, we find that the O3V star HD~93250 in Tr~14 shows a
two-component spectrum and X-ray luminosity almost identical to
HD~93129A.  {\em XMM-Newton} observations also show a hard spectral
component for HD~93250 \citep{Albacete03}; this source is very likely a
colliding-wind binary as well.

The diffuse emission in Tr~14 is quite soft and shows abundances
typical of OB wind termination shocks.  We also see soft, bright
diffuse emission in the off-axis CCDs of the ACIS array, far from any
of the Carina massive stellar clusters.  Spectral fits to this diffuse
emission require abundances of O, Ne, Si, and Fe to be more than twice
the solar value; this is evidence that the emission may be from an old
``cavity'' supernova remnant that exploded inside the Carina
superbubble, as suggested by \citet{Chu93}.

\section{30 Doradus}

Early in the {\em Chandra} mission, we obtained a $\sim 21$~ksec
observation of the most luminous Giant Extragalactic HII Region and
``starburst cluster'' in the Local Group, 30~Doradus in the Large
Magellanic Cloud.  The ACIS pointing was centered on the young, dense
OB cluster R136, a testbed for understanding recent and ongoing star
formation in the 30~Dor complex.  The presence of evolved supergiants
$\sim 25$~Myr old and embedded massive protostars shows that 30~Dor is
the product of multiple epochs of star formation, including a new
generation of embedded stars currently forming, possibly as a result of
triggered collapse from the effects of R136 \citep{Brandner01}.
Supernovae pervade the region but may go undetected due to age and
environment \citep{Chu90}.  Nearby are two msec pulsars and SN1987A.
30~Dor produced at least five plasma-filled superbubbles with
$\sim$100-pc scales \citep{Wang91}, likely products of strong OB winds
and multiple supernovae.

The right panel of Figure~\ref{fig:cavity} shows a smoothed ACIS image
from our 21-ksec observation of 30~Dor, including the off-axis CCDs S3
and S4 as well as the main 30~Dor nebula on the ACIS-I array.  We see a
bright concentration of X-rays associated with the R136 star cluster,
the bright SNR N157B to the southwest, a number of new
widely-distributed compact X-ray sources, and diffuse structures
associated with the superbubbles produced by the collective effects of
massive stellar winds and their past supernova events
\citep{Townsley05a}.  Some of these are center-filled while others are
edge-brightened, indicating a complicated mix of viewing angles and
perhaps filling factors.

Our spectral analysis of the superbubbles reveals a range of
absorptions ($N_H = 1$--6$ \times 10^{21}$~cm$^{-2}$), plasma
temperatures ($T = 3$--9$ \times 10^6$~K), and abundance variations.
We find $\sim 100$ sources associated with the central massive cluster
R136 \citep{Townsley05b}; some bright, hard X-ray point sources in the
field are likely colliding-wind binaries \citep{PPL02}.  Comparing the
X-ray data to visual and IR images, we find that hot plasma fills the
shells outlined by ionized gas and warm dust.

\section{Summary}

Interactions between powerful O star winds and the ISM lead to
parsec-scale soft X-ray emission as predicted by \citet{Weaver77} and
others, but with much fainter X-ray luminosities; this hot plasma may
pervade the Galactic plane but is hard to detect due to obscuration.
Wind-wind interactions lead to harder X-rays; this emission may provide
a way to determine close binarity in massive stars or to detect
embedded massive clusters.  The $10^4$K Str{\" o}mgren Sphere that
defines classical HII regions is really a Str{\"o}mgren Shell filled
with $10^6$K plasma in many MSFRs.  Only a small portion of the wind
energy and mass appears in the observed diffuse X-ray plasma, though;
it could be dissipated via turbulence, mass-loading, or fissures into
the ISM \citep{Townsley03}.  We see bright, soft diffuse X-rays in some
regions; enhanced metallicity and luminosity compared to wind-generated
emission and the presence of these structures in regions that also
contain evolved stars implies that these X-ray features are the remains
of cavity SNRs.

{\em Chandra} chronicles the life cycle of massive stars through
studies of MSFRs.  In W3 and W51A we see massive embedded protostars;
winds from main sequence O stars fill M17 and Tr14 with soft X-rays.
Colliding-wind binaries appear as hard X-ray sources in Tr14, W51
IRS2E, and 30~Dor.  Cavity supernova remnants dominate the soft diffuse
X-ray emission in Carina and 30~Dor, enhancing the superbubbles blown
by the winds of massive stars.

NEW YORK (AP) — It's Tronc no more. The Chicago-based media company says it's ditching the name and will revert to its "Tribune Publishing Co." moniker.
The company rebranded itself Tronc — short for "Tribune online content"— in 2016 to highlight its digital publishing efforts. But the clunky-sounding name quickly became the subject of jokes across social media.
Tronc owns papers across the U.S. including the Chicago Tribune, the New York Daily News and The Baltimore Sun.
It is also changing its stock ticker from TRNC to TPCO. Both changes are effective after the market closes Tuesday.
Tronc has been cutting staff at its papers and sold off the Los Angeles Times in February to shore up its results. It didn't give a reason for the name change.

The author then artfully builds the rising action in the following events: The Climax The climax is the peak of the rising action. It is usually the highest point of tension in the story. In Voodoo the climax comes when: The Conclusion Following the climax is the conclusion. The actions ceases, the characters reveal how the action has influenced them, and the author may state a lesson or moral. In Voodoo, the conclusion occurs when: The type of conclusion used in Voodoo is:
3 Characters: There are usually only a few characters included in a short story. The action centres around one main character who is in conflict. The author develops a character in THREE ways: 1. by the author s comments and description 2. by what the character says, thinks, and does 3. by other characters comments about and actions towards the character Protagonist: The central character who is in conflict. The reader identifies and usually sympathizes with the protagonist. However, the protagonist can be good or evil. Antagonist: The character(s) working against the protagonist. The protagonist can be his or her own antagonist in the case of internal conflict. We can classify characters in THREE ways: Flat: is only known by one or two traits Round: is complex and the reader learns what he/she thinks, feels, and wants Stock: is stereotyped (dumb jock) and the reader can often predict what the character will do Unique: is not predictable and faces distinctive situations and conflicts Static: remains the same from the beginning to the end. His/her opinions do not change, and the character learns nothing form the story s events. Dynamic: undergoes a permanent change in some aspect of his/her character, personality or outlook. Narrative Point of View: The attitude and location of the narrator towards the characters and conflict. First Person: the story is told by one of the characters in the story. The narrator can only relate to what he/she can see and feel. (I, we, me) Third Person Objective: describe only the actions of the characters. Does not know their feelings or thoughts. Third Person Limited Omniscient: tells the actions, thoughts and feelings of only one character. Third Person Omniscient: tells the actions, thoughts and feelings of two or more characters. Setting: The time and place in which the story takes place. Conflict: A clash of actions, ideas, or will. Conflict can be physical, mental, or a combination of these. I. Internal Conflict: occurs within a character. A character who is struggling to make a decision, who is trying to resolve an unhappy feeling, or who is striving to understand a particular person or situation. a. Man vs. Himself: conflict with some element of his/her own nature. This is called a dilemma. The character must decide what to do, but the decision is not easy. II. External Conflict: is a struggle against factors such as other humans, animals, or forces. a. Man vs. Man: one character has a conflict with another character b. Man vs. Environment: the character struggles against the situation he is in. This can take many forms, including society, nature, or organization. c. Man vs. The Unknown: the unknown includes God, gods, religion, fate, ghosts, the supernatural, luck, destiny, or anything else that is beyond the control of humans.
4 Theme: The central idea behind the story. The author presents some truth (as observed by the author) about life. Symbolism: Something in a story that represents a deeper meaning. white = peace/goodness night/darkness = death/evil Irony: A rhetorical device used to suggest the difference between appearance and reality. There are THREE types of irony: 1. Verbal Irony: A contrast between what is said and what is meant. (i.e. A man who has been betrayed by a once- trusted confidante says, Aren t you a wonderful friend to have. ) It adds emotional impact or humour. 2. Dramatic Irony: Occurs when the audience or reader know something the characters don t. This can create suspense. 3. Situational Irony: When the opposite of what is expected happens. (i.e. the fire hall burns down). Mood: The emotional atmosphere of the story (i.e. dark and gloomy; light hearted) Foreshadowing: A hint of something that will happen later in the story. Dialogue: Conversation between characters. Episode: An incident or event that is separate from the main plot, but still part of the whole story. Flashback: When important facts or events that occurred prior to the current setting of the story are revealed. Suspense: The feeling of anxiety and uncertainty experienced by the reader about the outcome of events or the protagonist s destiny.
5 Voodoo by Frederic Brown Mr. Decker s wife had just returned from a trip to Haiti a trip she had taken alone to give them a cooling off period before they discussed a divorce. It hadn t worked. Neither of them had cooled off in the slightest. In fact, they were finding now that they hated one another more than ever. Half, said Mrs. Decker firmly. I ll not settle for anything less than half the money plus half the property. Ridiculous! said Mr. Decker. Is it? I could have it all, you know. And quite easily, too. I studied voodoo while in Haiti. Rot! said Mr. Decker. It isn t. And you should be glad that I am a good woman, for I could kill you quite easily if I wished. I would then have all the money and all the real estate, and without any fear of consequences. A death accomplished by voodoo can not be distinguished from a death by heart failure. Rubbish! said Mr. Decker. You think so? I have wax and a hatpin. Do you want to give me a tiny pinch of your hair or a fingernail clipping or two that s all I need and let me show you? Nonsense! said Mr. Decker. Then why are you afraid to have me try? Since I know it works, I ll make you a proposition. If it doesn t kill you, I ll give you a divorce and ask for nothing. If it does, I ll get it all automatically. Done! said Mr. Deker. Get your wax and hatpin. He then glanced at his fingernails. Pretty short. I ll give you a bit of hair. When he came back with a few short strands of hair in the lid of an aspirin tin, Mrs. Decker had already started softening the wax. She kneaded the hair into it, then shaped it into the rough effigy of a human being. You ll be sorry, she said, and thrust the hatpin into the chest of the wax figure. Mr. Decker was surprised, but he was more pleased than sorry. He had not believed in voodoo, but being a cautious man, he never took chances. Besides, it had always irritated him that this wife so seldom cleaned her hairbrush.

Netflix tweeted an autoplaying video of a staged suicide and people are furious
By Talia Jane
In a stunning misfire, Netflix tweeted an autoplay video of a woman jumping off a bridge without context or warning to promote its new mystery thriller The OA, which premieres Friday. The show follows a blind woman who goes missing for seven years and mysteriously returns home with her sight restored.
Netflix first posted a series of cryptic tweets to its nearly 2.5 million followers on Monday:
It then followed up with a three second video clip — which is shot to appear like it was recorded live — of a woman running toward the edge of a bridge. Netflix tweeted the same clip, but with an additional five seconds added, that shows the woman jumping off the bridge. It was swiftly criticized for failing to provide any sort of context or warning.
(Editor's note: The video may be disturbing to some readers. View with discretion.)
The eight second video is still available here.
As of writing, the tweet hasn't been removed or revised, leaving people to share content warnings about Netflix's Twitter account on their own.
A representative for Netflix did not immediately return a request for comment.

Q: ExceptionValidationRule doesn't react to exceptions I have an ExceptionValidationRule on my TextBox:
<Window.Resources>
    <Style x:Key="textStyleTextBox" TargetType="TextBox">
        <Style.Triggers>
            <Trigger Property="Validation.HasError" Value="true">
                <Setter Property="ToolTip" Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}, Path=(Validation.Errors)[0].ErrorContent}" />
            </Trigger>
        </Style.Triggers>
    </Style>
</Window.Resources>

<TextBox x:Name="myTextBox"
    {Binding Path=MyProperty, ValidatesOnExceptions=True}"
    Style="{StaticResource ResourceKey=textStyleTextBox}" />

and MyProperty looks like that:
private int myProperty;

public int MyProperty
{
    get { return myProperty; }
    set
    {
        if(value > 10)
            throw new ArgumentException("LOL that's an error");
        myProperty = value;
    }
}

In DEBUG mode, application crashes with unhandled exception "LOL that's an error" (WPF Binding Engine doesn't catch this and I think it should...).
In RELEASE mode, everything works fine.
Can someone tell me, why the hell is this happening? And how can I fix this?

A: The solution is not so obvious nor well documented, but simple enough.
The reason Visual Studio breaks for exceptions when running in debug mode is because it's configured that way.
In the Debug menu, select "Exceptions...". In this dialog you control how VS handles exceptions. Simply uncheck "User-unhandled" for "Common Language Runtime Exceptions", press OK and run your project again.

San Francisco (Reuters): Facebook Inc acknowledged on Thursday that it has become a battleground for governments seeking to manipulate public opinion in other countries and outlined new measures it is taking to combat what it calls "information operations" that go well beyond the phenomenon known as fake news.
In a report and summary of response plans on its website on Thursday, Facebook describes well-funded and subtle efforts by nations and other organizations to spread misleading information and falsehoods for geopolitical goals.
These initiatives go much further than posting fake news stories to include amplification - essentially widening the circulation of posts through a variety of means - carried out by government employees or paid professionals, often using fake accounts.
Facebook said its security team would now fight information operations, which it regards as a more complex problem than traditional hackers and scammers, by suspending or deleting false accounts after identifying them with a combination of machine learning and intelligence agency-level analysis.

Q: How to change cursor dynamically while dragging in IE? With the following JS code, I am trying to replace the cursor while dragging. It works well for Chrome and FF ,not IE. Any workaround?
$("body").mousedown(function() {
  $("body").mousemove(function(){
    $("body").addClass("dragging");
  });
});
$("body").mouseup(function() {
    $("body").unbind('mousemove');
    $("body").removeClass("dragging");
});

.dragging {
    cursor: no-drop;
 }

A: I am not aware of a workaround for this, as this article from CSS-Tricks makes clear:
"The following not supported in IE or Opera: not-allowed, no-drop, vertical-text, all-scroll, col-resize, row-resize"
Sorry I can't provide a workaround, but hopefully the article clears up any confusion.

Senate Report: Torture Didn't Work and the CIA Lied About It
Political BloggerBio | Follow
The Washington Post has gotten hold of the Senate investigation into CIA interrogation practices and—
No, wait. They haven't. They've only learned what the report says "according to U.S. officials who have reviewed the document." It's impossible to say if these sources are characterizing the report accurately, and their summary descriptions of the report
make it very hard to judge how fair the report's conclusions are.
But with those caveats and cautions out of the way, what does the report say? This:
Several officials who have read the document said some of its most troubling sections deal not with detainee abuse but with discrepancies between the statements of senior CIA officials in Washington and the details revealed in the written communications of lower-level employees directly involved.
Officials said millions of records make clear that the CIA's ability to obtain the most valuable intelligence against al-Qaeda — including tips that led to the killing of Osama bin Laden in 2011 — had little, if anything, to do with "enhanced interrogation techniques."
…"The CIA conflated what was gotten when, which led them to misrepresent the effectiveness of the program," said a second U.S. official who has reviewed the report. The official described the persistence of such misstatements as among "the most damaging" of the committee's conclusions.
Detainees' credentials also were exaggerated, officials said. Agency officials described Abu Zubaida as a senior al-Qaeda operative — and, therefore, someone who warranted coercive techniques — although experts later determined that he was essentially a facilitator who helped guide recruits to al-Qaeda training camps.
However, for those of us who think that detainee abuse is, in fact, as important as the lies that were told about it, there's this:
Classified files reviewed by committee investigators reveal internal divisions over the interrogation program, officials said, including one case in which CIA employees left the agency's secret prison in Thailand after becoming disturbed by the brutal measures being employed there. The report also cites cases in which officials at CIA headquarters demanded the continued use of harsh interrogation techniques even after analysts were convinced that prisoners had no more information to give.
The report describes previously undisclosed cases of abuse, including the alleged repeated dunking of a terrorism suspect in tanks of ice water at a detention site in Afghanistan — a method that bore similarities to waterboarding but never appeared on any Justice Department-approved list of techniques.
So the torture was even worse than we thought; it produced very little in the way of actionable intelligence; and the CIA lied about this in order to preserve its ability to torture prisoners.
Anybody who isn't sickened by this needs to take very long, very deep look into their souls. For myself, I think I'll go take a shower now.

It was actually cold all day today, but that didn't stop me and Elizabeth, then the pugs, from spending half of our day outside! First, we went exploring the new neighborhood being built nearby. I don't know why they're building. There's plenty of existing houses that no one wants to buy. Whatever. At least they've created lots of good dirt piles to climb up and down! But it kills me how they chop down all the trees first. It's just stupid.
see Trees add value to a neighborhood!
Then I came in and watched the Titans lose to the Broncos — snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, as they say when someone blows a lead — while Tara took Elizabeth grocery shopping with her.
Then Elizabeth, the pugs and I spent a couple hours at the park. Elizabeth spent most of the time on the playground while I walked the dogs along the extensive paved little trail, with a couple breaks in there. They're pugs, not greyhounds. They — and I — need breaks.


Today Rosie had a play and celebration for her class at school. I marched into the reception with a Tupperware of delicious chocolate cupcakes creatively decorated for the theme of the day. One of the other mother's who is gluten sensitive saw them and said, "Oh are those gluten free...I bet they're better than the regular cake!" Competing with the huge, attractively frosted sheet cake is a tall order. But, I've learned one on a special diet CAN have their cake and eat it too. BTW thank you to that mom for making me feel great!
Chloe Coscarelli proved you can make a vegan cake and trounce the competition. By winning Cupcake Wars, a show that pits 4 cupcake baker against each other each episode for a chance to cater a big name even, she proved someone on a special diet can have their cake and eat it too. Check out her blog for more information.
Coscarelli's first book (second one coming soon), Chloe's Kitchen: 125 Easy, Delicious Recipes for Making the Food You Love the Vegan Way, provides delicious options for everything from appetizers to desserts, simple family dinners to elegant entertaining. The attractive photos highlight the freshness and variety one can garner from food that is free of meat, dairy and eggs. The fact that the very picky judges of Cupcakes Wars put her at the top of the heap is proof of this. Her book includes sections like Small Bites, for party fare (or just to treat yourself) including Avocado-Shitake Sushi and Black Bean Baby Cakes with Pineapple Salsa. Her whimsical entrees include items like, Orange You Glad I Made Crispy Tofu, with a stir fry sauce utilizing the healthy sweetener, agave nectar, instead of often sugar laden bottled orange sauce. Chloe's desserts shine through (her upcoming second book is ALL desserts), with selections like dairy and egg free Chocolate Creme Brulee---a seemingly impossible feat. So with Chloe's help you TOO can have your cake and eat it too on special diets.
Purim is a major junk food holiday. We exchange gift baskets which are meant to be food used for the large celebratory meal, or Purim Seudah, celebrating the miracle that happened to the Jewish people in the time of Queen Esther. But,it has devolved, more often than not, into a junk food free for all. Children can be found eyes glazed over clutching sacks of candy and chips, sitting in a corner eating mindlessly. I like to put care into my gifts of food and choose items my family would actually eat. One can emphasize healthier options and give away healthier sweets and treats.
This bar cookie strikes me very much as the type of dessert I would make to give to someone as a gift. I have subbed all-purpose gluten free flour blend (I like Jules Gluten Free) for the all purpose flour in the recipe as it is written.
Pre-heat oven to 350F degrees. Line an 8-inch square pan with foil or parchment paper long enough to overhang edges.
In a food processor, pulse flour, margarine, powdered sugar, and cinnamon until crumbly. Press into prepared pan and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until edges are golden. Remove from oven, let cool, and then chill in refrigerator.
To make Caramel: In a small saucepan, over medium heat, heat brown sugar, margarine, and non-dairy milk, stirring frequently. Once mixture comes together, increase heat to medium high for 1 to 2 minutes, until it begins to boil and the bubbles move into the center of the caramel. Remove form heat and let sit for 10 minutes.
To assemble the bars: Pour the Caramel over the chilled Shortbread Crust. let cool, and return the pan to the refrigerator to chill.
Melt the chocolate chips over a double or int he microwave (high for 2 minutes, stir until smooth). Evenly spread the melted chocolate over the caramel layer. Sprinkle with fleur de sel and return to the refrigerator. Once the chocolate has solidified, lift the cookie from the pan with the foil and remove the foil. With a sharp knife, cut the cookie into 2-inch squares.
This Ketchup recipe is ALOT healthier than the bottled variety. Package it in a small mason jar with a festive ribbon or label. The less processed variety of agave nectar (darker) is considered the best.
In a medium sauce pot, combine tomato puree, agave, garlic, 2 Tablespoons vinegar, salt, cinnamon, onion powder, and cayenne, and bring to a boil. Simmer on low for 30 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. Whisk in remaining 2 teaspoons vinegar. Let cool and chill in the refrigerator.
Beautiful cupcake, Ic an totally believe it's better tastign than regular ones.
As for ketchup, I can't stand or even smell bottled one, great recipe.
