A Touching Funny Movie for Mother's Day "Mamu and a Mother Too" Showing in Select Cinemas
One of 2018's Cinema One Originals featured films, "Mamu And A Mother Too," will hold special screenings this May to present an amusing and heartwarming motherhood story in celebration of Mother's Day.
On Sunday (May 13), the film will have a special Mother's Day screening at Cinema Centenario at 5:30pm. It will also be shown at the UPFI Film Center - Cine Adarna gala screening on May 22 (Wednesday) at 5pm and 7pm. On May 24 (Friday), the film will have regular screenings at micro-cinemas in Cinema '76.
Hailed as C1 Originals' Audience Choice and Young Critics Circle 2019's Best First Feature, "Mamu And A Mother Too" is directed by Rod Singh and features a middle-aged transgender who finds herself instantly becoming a surrogate mom to her transgender niece.
"Mamu And A Mother Too" made headlines last year when its lead star, Iyah Mina, won Best Actress in C1 Originals, the first transgender woman recognized for best acting in Philippine cinema. Meanwhile, another cast member and Iya's long-term boyfriend in the film, Arron Villaflor, was hailed as Best Supporting Actor.
According to Leo Balante's review on adobomagazine.com, the film has the right combination of realistic comedy and drama. He said, "This effortless, symbiotic relationship made it easy for the audience to grow as the characters grew with the right blend of real-life drama and comedy. . . Overall, 'Mamu; and a Mother Too' is a ride you will enjoy as you will not forget for a long while."
Meanwhile, Ryan Piolo Veluz hailed the film's take on motherhood in abttheflame.net, the official student publication of UST Faculty of Arts and Letters. "Ultimately, the film teaches viewers that the core of being a mother is not determined by gender and blood relation; rather, motherhood is a choice fueled by unselfish motives and unpretentious affection," he wrote.
The film was recently rated R-13 by the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).
Witness the unfolding of a mother's love in "Mamu And A Mother Too" in selected cinemas this May. For more details, like Cinema One Originals on Facebook and follow @c1origs on Twitter and @c1originals on Instagram.

Get to Know the Leading Men of UAAP Women's Volleyball
The Final Four cast is set in UAAP Women's Volleyball with the Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU) Lady Eagles leading the way followed by the surging UST Golden Tigresses, the defending champion DLSU Lady Spikers, and last year's finalist the FEU Lady Tamaraws.
Before semifinals action starts this Saturday (May 4) on ABS-CBN S+A, LIGA, and iWant Sports, let us put the spotlight on the distinguished men in the sidelines that are behind the scintillating seasons of the tournament's top four squads. As much as the players have given everything they have and left it all on the floor, so too have their coaches!
Let us get to know the individuals that have motivated, guided, and paved the way for the likes of stars like Bea De Leon, Sisi Rondina, Des Cheng, and Heather Guino-o to fight for the championship trophy in UAAP Season 81.
1.) George Pascua, Far Eastern University
Pascua was a former player for the Men's Volleyball team of FEU and was teammates with volleyball legend, and DLSU head coach, Ramil De Jesus. As a coach, he won four titles for his alma mater's men's squad. His championship run continued in the semi-pro circuit where he notched three titles as a women's volleyball coach. He rejoined the FEU program in 2017 and under his tutelage, the Lady Tamaraws seems to be on its way to bringing back FEU's glory days as a UAAP volleyball powerhouse. After a return to the Finals in Season 80, his young team has another crack in the title, though they have to do it against league-leading Ateneo.
2.) Kung Fu Reyes, University of Santo Tomas
Coach Kung Fu used to be a utility spiker for UST where he won three titles as a player. As a coach, he has handled a lot of stars in the juniors ranks before they became household names like Alyssa Valdez, Kim Fajardo, sisters Dindin and Jaja Santiago among others, when he was an assistant to Francis Vicente. One of his best moments came in 2013 when he coached the Junior Tigresses to the title. Two years later, he took over the UST program that has seen a resurgence with the likes of Sisi Rondina, Eya Laure, Dimdim Pacres, and Milena Alessandrini. Will this be the year the Golden Tigresses romp back to the Finals with Coach Kung Fu at the helm?
3.) Oliver Almadro, Ateneo De Manila University
Coach O, as he is fondly called by his players, is one of the league's best motivators on the floor. But that does not take away the tactical genius of Almadro who steered the Ateneo Blue Eagles to the Finals for five straight years after being a down-and-out program back then. He built the team to the powerhouse that it is now before taking the head coaching position for the Ateneo Lady Eagles following Tai Bundit's exit. No one expected the Lady Eagles at the top of the heap at 12-2entering the Final Four, but it is a testament to how much Almadro has shaped one of the youngest teams in the league into a formidable force. His success is not surprising as this former Letran varsity player had only the next guy in the list as his mentor when he started coaching.
4.) Ramil De Jesus, De La Salle University
The man needs no introduction at all. You want to have the best in Philippine volleyball? All you have to do is look at the way of Taft and just marvel at how Ramil De Jesus has built a volleyball empire at DLSU. He is one of the winningest coaches in the land with a 246-65 record. Not only that, he has 10 championship belts under his belt and a long line of stars who are proud to have been mentored by him. Manilla Santos, Maureen Penetranter, Desiree Hernandez, Chi Saet, Iris Ortega-Patrona were there when volleyball started to boom. Then De Jesus was armed with the likes of the towering Jacq Alarca, Michele Gumabao, Aby Marano, Kim Fajardo, Cha Cruz, and many, many more stars. Arguably, he has the best program in the country and his rings more than do the talking for recruitment purposes.
Catch these four gentlemen as they try to rally their ladies to victory in the Final Four of the UAAP Season 81 Women's Volleyball Tournament that starts this Saturday (May 4) with the Ateneo-FEU match at 4 pm. UST and DLSU will figure in a derby in the other match-up that will be played on Sunday (May 5), also at 4 pm.
Catch all the action LIVE only on ABS-CBN S+A, S+A HD, LIGA, LIGA HD, via livestreaming on sports.abs-cbn.com and iWant Sports.

New York Times Best Seller "The Sun is Also a Star" Now a Motion Picture, Opens in PH Theaters on May 16
Can a poet and a pragmatist fall in love? What if they only have 24 hours to find out? Something like love at first sight has struck Daniel Bae (Charles Melton), but he soon learns he has just one day to not only get Natasha Kingsley (Yara Shahidi) to fall for him, but to convince her that romantic love exists in the first place. One day. Because tomorrow she could be gone.
(Watch the film's trailer at YouTube: https://youtu.be/6KPq9MB4__c.)
In "The Sun Is Also a Star," opposites attract against the backdrop of one of the busiest and most vibrant cities in the world: New York. And in a city of more than eight million people, what are the odds that anyone will find the one…or that their paths will even cross?
The film pits the law of attraction against a U.S. deportation law that will, in just 24 hours, put the character of Natasha and her entire family on a plane to Jamaica, away from everything she knows and loves, everything she considers home.
The film is based on the acclaimed bestseller of the same title by author Nicola Yoon (Everything, Everything). The Sun Is Also a Star was #1 on the New York Times Best Sellers list and has received multiple accolades, including: 2016 National Book Award Finalist; Amazon's Best Book of 2016 in YA; Amazon's Top 20 Children's Books of 2016 in YA; the New York Times Notable Children's Books of 2016; and Entertainment Weekly's 10 Best Books of 2016.
Nicola Yoon was inspired by the serendipity of her own relationship in creating the characters—though she and her husband did not meet at such a problematic time as Natasha and Daniel.
"We did not meet whilst I was being deported, or anything like that," Yoon confirms. "But I'm Jamaican-American and my husband is Korean-American, like Natasha and Daniel, and we did have a lot of the conversations that I included in the book. We talked about philosophical things and I was always the one asking, 'What does it really mean?' which, I'm sure, was kind of annoying. And we did go to karaoke a lot," she smiles. "My husband is a great singer, and so is Daniel."
In conceiving the pair who are both at a pivotal time of life—nearing the end of high school, preparing for college—Yoon drew from her own experiences as a student at Cornell University, particularly from a series of lectures by noted astronomer Carl Sagan. "He was so good at taking complex scientific concepts and making you really feel the human impact of these complicated things. All of this was in my mind when thinking about the forces that push Daniel and Natasha together, and the ones the pull them apart."
Director Ry Russo-Young offers, "The key things that seemed important to Nicola and myself to maintain from book to screen were a sense of cultural authenticity for both main characters, as well as the love story. Then, in the execution, to get everything right in terms of the chemistry between Natasha and Daniel…well, we couldn't have gotten any luckier than casting Yara and Charles.
Nicola Yoon was impressed with Shahidi's take on the character right away. "Yara's fantastic, a brilliant actress, and also a great activist for young black women, which was wonderful to bring to the role," she says. "Being on set and watching her take over Natasha but still really maintain the spirit of her from the book…I couldn't have been any luckier."
The author was equally over the moon about Charles Melton. "I love his energy. He's always moving, he's so enthusiastic and game for the next thing. I remember watching one scene—an emotional scene—and it was a real location so there was a lot of ambient noise, a lot happening around us, and he was crying. And then I was crying. And I thought, 'How, in the middle of all this, is he make me cry right now?'"
In Philippine cinemas Thursday, May 16, "The Sun Is Also a Star" is distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
3 Lessons on the Impact of Technology on Relationships from iWant's "Touch Screen"
"Touch Screen," a three-episode original anthology series on the streaming service iWant, explores the impact of technology on how we connect with each other as people, whether it's with family members, friends, or a potential partner. Our gadgets and devices allow us to interact with each other – it's true. But as the series says, "sometimes, life happens when we disconnect," and it definitely forces us to look not just at our screens, but at ourselves, and teaches lessons about how to treat our loved ones better. (Warning: Spoilers ahead!)
Lesson 1: It doesn't matter where you find love
In the episode "It's A Match," relationship-phobic and cynical Elvi (Denise Laurel) dreams of meeting the man of his dreams in a coffee shop. But after she "matches" with Justin (Joseph Marco) on a dating app and decides to go out with him, she learns that it doesn't really matter where the magic begins. What counts is the connection you both feel when you hang out in real life that will allow you to get to know each other on a deeper level. Also: Don't judge a person by their online profile!
Lesson 2: Seeking online validation won't always bring you joy
We are so obsessed with our social media "clout" these days, that building ourselves up online sometimes leads to heated arguments with people we don't even know. In "Wittyrella," Mandy (Janella Salvador) hopes to gain more followers to get her celebrity crush to notice her. However, when she finds out that the person behind the account she's feuding with is close to her, she realizes that her fangirling has become detrimental to her relationship with her family – the people who truly care about her – and that having thousands of followers does not automatically lead to happiness or satisfaction.
Lesson 3: "Old-schoolers" don't have to be afraid of technology
Technology indeed makes everyday life easier and more convenient. But it becomes a threat to old-school househelp Inday (Pokwang) in the episode "Vixee vs. Inday," as she finds herself neglected and undervalued when the father brings home a fully functional smart gadget named Vixee. She later comes to terms with the reality that the gadget is not her enemy, but her partner in taking care of the people who matter to her and have always treated her like family.

Don't Take Your Liver for Granted! Take Essentiale® Forte P
The liver is probably one of the body's most overworked organs. It may as well be called a "Silent Hero" because it plays a key role in the chemical processes of the body.
The liver stores important vitamins, energy and minerals, and releases them to the blood. It helps the body to resist infections by producing immune factors and removing bacteria from the blood. It converts the food you eat into energy, and produces chemicals your brain needs and spinal cord needs. The liver also detoxifies by metabolizing and expelling drugs, alcohol, and environmental toxins from your system. It also helps digest your food and absorb important nutrients through the bile it produces.
There is a misconception that alcohol drinkers are the most commonly affected by liver disease – one that is called Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (AFLD). Symptoms can include fatigue, pain in the upper right abdomen, enlarged breasts in men, red palms and yellowing of the skin and eyes, a condition called jaundice.
However, there are many factors that can affect your liver health such as prolonged medication, viruses, parasites, and obesity.
There is also a liver disease called Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) in which a person has fatty liver even with little or no alcohol consumption. What is alarming with NAFLD is that its symptoms usually have no physical manifestation. In cases with such, signs include fatigue, pain in the upper right abdomen, and enlarged stomach.
Taking care of your liver and checking if it is fully functioning is your responsibility. Remember that the liver gives your body the energy for its day-to-day needs. It regulates and processes anything you eat and drink.
So what do you do to take care of your liver?
Aside from eating and drinking well, you can also take blood tests used to help diagnose and monitor liver disease or damage. The tests measure the levels of certain enzymes and proteins in your blood.
Foods like berries, oatmeal and garlic and drinks like coffee and green tea are good for your liver.
Taking medicine also helps improve liver function. (Phospholipids) Essentiale® Forte P contains purified EPL® (Essential Phospholipids) which is extracted from natural food with precise technology from Germany. It can be easily absorbed by liver cells.
Essentiale, an over-the-counter medicine, is clinically proven to strengthen liver health by promoting the repairing function and regeneration of liver cells.
Don't take your liver for granted. Be mindful of what you eat and drink. Your "Silent Hero" will thank you.

Joe Giallombardo: Gymnastics Record-holder, Longtime Coach, Brother
CHAPTER ETERNAL — As a star gymnast at the University of Illinois in the late 1930s, Joseph James Giallombardo (Illinois '38) used his acrobatic skills to win bets against his fraternity brothers.
Once, he stood on his hands and scaled the banister at the three-story Alpha Tau Omega fraternity house — from bottom to top and back down again — without falling.
"That's how he funded his dates with (his wife) Edith," said daughter-in-law Helen Giallombardo. "Every nickel and every dime was a date at the local eatery back then."
Mr. Giallombardo, 94, an NCAA record-holder in men's gymnastics and a longtime coach at New Trier High Township School in Winnetka, died of natural causes Thursday, Oct. 13, in Richardson, Texas, his family said.
The first in his family to attend college, Mr. Giallombardo won seven individual NCAA titles at Illinois, including three consecutive all-around championships, and led the Illini to two team titles.
Mr. Giallombardo, the youngest of seven children, was born in Cleveland to Sicilian immigrants. After his mother died in 1924, Mr. Giallombardo and his three brothers lived in an orphanage for four years. Meanwhile, a sister took care of the other girls, and their father worked nights as a laborer.
At the orphanage, Mr. Giallombardo and his brothers often would be fed a breakfast of oatmeal, which they didn't like. The penalty for not eating it would be an oatmeal lunch, so the boys stuffed the mush in their pockets.
But Mr. Giallombardo recounted those difficult days with a sense of humor, said his son, Jay. "He always looked for the good in things and made the best out of a dire situation," he said.
The Giallombardo boys in 1928 returned to the family house, where the children's father insisted they all speak English.
Mr. Giallombardo began gymnastics while at East Technical High School in Cleveland, where he won multiple state championships. He was then offered a gymnastics scholarship to the U. of I., where he won the NCAA all-around title at the inaugural championship in 1938. Only two other gymnasts have since matched Mr. Giallombardo's three all-around titles.
Mr. Giallombardo's title record stood alone for more than 40 years, until Jim Hartung of the University of Nebraska won his sixth and seventh individual titles at the 1982 NCAA championship meet. Mr. Giallombardo was in the stands that day to watch Hartung, who would win gold with the U.S. team at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
"That was a real thrill for me to be here," Mr. Giallombardo told a Nebraska paper. "I have followed Hartung's career since he was in high school. He's been my idol. He's a great athlete."
After graduation, Mr. Giallombardo became a physical education teacher at New Trier and helped establish the boys gymnastics team. He and Edith Cramer married in 1941, and Mr. Giallombardo became a training officer in the Navy the following year. He returned to his job at New Trier after an honorable discharge in 1946.
After the birth of three daughters and a son, the family settled in Wilmette in 1953.
Mr. Giallombardo coached and judged gymnastics until his retirement in 1975. Among the many gymnasts he judged was Olympic champion Bart Conner, who competed for Niles West High School, Jay Giallombardo said.
In retirement, Mr. Giallombardo continued judging but turned to another passion: singing. He performed in church choirs and in barbershop choruses, winning several medals in international competitions.
Among his many accolades for gymnastics and coaching, Mr. Giallombardo was inducted into the U.S. Gymnastics Hall of Fame in 1966 and the Greater Cleveland Sports Hall of Fame in 1980. He also founded the Illinois High School Gymnastics Coaches Association.
But to his students, Mr. Giallombardo was simply "Coach Joe," motivated by his rise from humble beginnings to help students succeed.
"Joe would find a way to encourage them one way or another," his daughter-in-law said. "He showed them what they could do if they dedicated themselves to (a) pursuit, whatever that pursuit was."
In addition to his wife, son and daughter-in-law, Mr. Giallombardo is survived by his daughters, JoAnne Fraser, Sue Walker and Lynne Giallombardo; 12 grandchildren; and 13 great-grandchildren.
A public service is scheduled for 2 p.m. Saturday at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Northbrook.

Jewish on Demand: Representation and Difference in the Streaming Era
Prof Henry Bial
(University of Kansas, USA)
6.30pm, 5 December 2019
Classic Jewish film and television, from The Jazz Singer to Seinfeld, was shaped by the economic need to reach the broadest possible audience, leading to creative strategies that minimized or downplayed the difference between Jews and the rest of society. As Netflix and other streaming services have made more specialized entertainment commercially viable, new ways of acting Jewish on screen have emerged that highlight the quirkier and more contested aspects of Jewish identity.
Henry Bial is Professor and Chair of the Department of Theatre and Dance at the University of Kansas, where he has also served as Director of Jewish Studies, Director of the School of the Arts, and Chair of the Department of American Studies. He is the author of Acting Jewish: Negotiating Ethnicity on the American Stage and Screen (2005) and Playing God: The Bible on the Broadway Stage (2015).

Arginine (L-arginine): L-arginine helps maintain the body's fluid balance (urea, creatinine), and aids in wound healing, hair growth, sperm production (spermatogenesis), blood vessel relaxation (vasodilation), and fights infection. Intravenous arginine can be used for growth hormone reserve evaluation in people with suspected growth hormone deficiencies. Examples of these deficiencies include panhypopituitarism, growth/stature abnormalities, gigantism/acromegaly, or pituitary adenoma.
Iodine: Iodine is an element (atomic number 53) that is required by humans for the synthesis of thyroid hormones (triiodothyronine/T3 and thyroxine/T4). Iodine deficiency is one of the causes of goiter (hypertrophy of the thyroid gland as it tries to make more thyroid hormone in the absence of iodine). Physically, goiter appears as an abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland in the neck. Other causes of goiter include autoimmune thyroiditis, excess iodine, other hormonal disorders, radiation exposure, infectious causes, or inborn errors of metabolism. Although goiter due to low iodine intake is rare in developed countries, it may occur in regions with endemic low iodine levels. To avoid iodine deficiency in the United States, table salt is enriched with iodine ("iodized" salt), and iodine is added to cattle feed and used as a dough conditioner. Iodine supplementation for goiter prevention is generally not recommended in developed countries where sufficient iodine intake is common, and excess iodine can actually cause medical complications (including goiter).
Vitamin D: Vitamin D is found in numerous dietary sources such as fish, eggs, fortified milk, and cod liver oil. The sun is also a significant contributor to our daily production of vitamin D, and as little as 10 minutes of exposure is thought to be enough to prevent deficiencies. The term "vitamin D" refers to several different forms of this vitamin. Some individuals may develop secondary hyperparathyroidism due to low vitamin D levels. The initial treatment for this type of hyperparathyroidism is vitamin D. For individuals with primary or refractory hyperparathyroidism, surgical removal of the parathyroid glands is commonly recommended by healthcare professionals.

As I listened to the conversation at my table during Krystyn & Ryan's wedding reception, I quickly learned that Renfrew is quite the small town. There are deep roots of family and friendship, and everyone knows everyone's brother, sister, and parents. They played on the same sports teams as kids, they work in the same family businesses. The ties are strong and the history is even longer.
Krystyn & Ryan chose to hold their ceremony in the backyard of Ryan's grandfather's property. Although it was a little bit chilly, the blue skies and the sunshine made up for it. In the front row sat Ryan's grandfather, Ron, who watched the ceremony unfold with the most sincere smile across his face. His grandson was starting a new chapter of his life as a husband. He was so proud.
Enjoy a few of my favourites from this crisp October afternoon!
As they walked down the aisle for the first time as husband and wife, fireworks went off! Everyone was so surprised and it really made the moment feel like a celebration.
During Ryan's speech later that night, he pointed to the head table and remarked that there were over 100 years of friendship in those seats. Just as Ryan said, not many people have the privilege of saying that about their wedding party.
Congratulations, Krystyn and Ryan! It's official!
I wish you the most wonderful year of building your dream house together. I hope it feels like home and that you can enjoy your life as a newly married couple. You really are two of the sweetest people out there :) Stay in touch!


It's the most festive time of the year again and I couldn't be happier!!! As it is for so many of us, Christmas is immensely near and dear to my heart and I love to celebrate it in as many ways as possible (from baking enough holiday treats to feed an army to donating toys, clothes, and food to local families who are in need). I also adore taking advantage of December shopping deals and know that I'm definitely not alone on that front either, so in the spirit of helping you all do so, starting today I'm having a mammoth sale in my Etsy shop.
This sale will run for three weeks (with January 5, 2015 being the last day), so as to encompass Christmas, Hanukkah, Yule, Kwanzaa, Boxing Day, New Years, and all the other fabulous holidays that fall during this festive time of the year. Whether you're shopping for yourself or giving gifts to your friends, family, coworkers, or anyone else in your life, now is the time to save big!!!
Unlike the other sales that I've had so far, this one operates on the basis of, the more you buy, the more you save. Please see the following list and use the appropriate coupon code when purchasing anything from my Etsy shop during this three week period.
Coupon codes cannot be combined and do not apply to shipping or taxes (taxes are only applicable to Canadian customers), but you can make multiple purchases of different sizes, say one for $100 today and another for $200 later in the year (or start of January) and take advantage of any and all of these coupon codes on more than occasion.
The two highest discounts (35% and 45%, respectively) are the largest I've ever offered and I won't likely be having such deep savings again until next December, a full year from now! So if there's an item - or ten! :) - that you've been eyeing from my shop, now is definitely the time to pounce on it!
I truly appreciate all of your business and support of my Etsy shop this year. It's been a little over seven months since it opened now and things have been going great, thanks in no small part to business, encouragement, and sharing (about it) that many of you have blessed me with in 2014. I offer these holiday season savings to all of you (new and returning customers/supporters alike) today as a truly heartfelt token of just how much you and your business all matter to me.
Happy shopping, saving, and holiday season wishes, my dear friends!!!
Wow, what an amazing sale! I'm poor from all the Christmas cheer I've been spreading, but maybe in the new year I'll treat myself a little bit. This is awesome!
Hello sweet gal, I get that entirely, believe me. I intentionally set the sale dates into the New Year for just that reason (knowing that for some folks, shopping for themselves doesn't become possible again until the New Year; goodness knows that's always the case for me, too) and really hope you are able to avail of these discounted prices. Let me know if there's anything you'd like me to reserve for you in advance now. I'm always more than happy to do that for my wonderful online friends and blog readers.
Thank you very much, dear Kate. You're always so sweet to my shop and I.
I wish you a merry little christmas and a happy new year!
Thank you very much, honey. I have scads more items that aren't listed yet (and just acquired a large amount more of jewelry and accessories this weekend), so if there's ever anything you're hunting for, please don't hesitate to ask, I might have it in my inventory or know where else online you can find it.
Wishing you a marvelously merry Christmas & a fantastic, happy, healthy New Year, too!
Exciting! I am off to have a look!
Hi Holly, thank you very much for checking out my Etsy shop, I sincerely appreciate it. I'm always happy to reserve items, if something catches your eye and you'd like to purchase it a little later on.
Congratulations on doing so well with your shop. This is a very generous discount, I will be having a good look!

Q: SQL - Return amalgamated row of most recent content from matching rows I can't figure this out - I guess it's simple but I can't find a suitable method.
I believe it's called the 'Last non-null puzzle', but I can't follow the solutions online! At the moment I'm using PHP to parse through a returned array until variables are all full, but I'd prefer to do it in SQL. Using MariaDB 8 on Ubuntu.
ID increments as records are added. It could be a datetime.
If I have the following:
ID | Data1 | Data2 | Data3
1  | NULL  | Book  | NULL
2  | Pink  | NULL  | Cat
3  | NULL  | Book  | NULL
4  | Blue  | NULL  | NULL
5  | NULL  | Stool | Cat
6  | White | NULL  | NULL
7  | NULL  | NULL  | Bull

How would I return: White | Stool | Bull (the most 'recent' non-NULLs)?
Is there a way to select on id = '4' and return Blue | Book | Cat?
I've been trying for hours! I've seen some posts on amalgamation but those don't seem to apply. Sorry of this is trivial - I assume it is but I can't figure it out.

A: please check the following code.
SELECT * FROM

(SELECT Data1 FROM test t2
 WHERE Data1 IS NOT NULL
 ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 1
) Data1,

(SELECT Data2 FROM test t2
 WHERE Data2 IS NOT NULL
 ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 1
) Data2,

(SELECT Data3 FROM test t3
 WHERE Data3 IS NOT NULL
 ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 1
) Data3

A: You can get the effective values on each row using window functions:
select t.*,
       max(data1) over (partition by grp1) as imputed_data1,
       max(data2) over (partition by grp2) as imputed_data2,
       max(data3) over (partition by grp3) as imputed_data3
from (select t.*,
             count(data1) over (order by id) as grp1,
             count(data2) over (order by id) as grp2,
             count(data3) over (order by id) as grp3
      from t
     ) t;

You can then see the values for all id or some ids or the last row by using this as a subquery or CTE.

When we travel we stay in hotels and the hotels kind of become our second homes for the few days that we stay there. Sometimes the hotels are so good that they become a tourist attraction by themselves and you would be tempted to stay in the hotel and not venture out. If you are not really worried about the budget or are adventurous you should definitely try some of the most unusual hotels that can be found in many different countries. You will just need a quirky sense of humor in some hotels, in some you will need a lot of endurance and in some you just need to have a lot of money to splash on. All said and done these most unusual hotels are bound to give you the experience of a lifetime and you can proudly join the few who have already stayed there. Here is a list of some of the world's most unusual hotels.
The setting is very lunar and out of the world. To get to this hotel, you need to travel hundreds of kilometers in a salt desert. And that's not the only thing that makes it unusual. The whole hotel is made of salt. It lacks some of the basic amenities you would expect out of a normal hotel, but this is due to ecological concerns. This hotel will leave you with the most memorable memories. You have to be really fit to take on the trip and the stay in the hotel as weather conditions can get really adverse.
Another unusual hotel from the South American continent, this place boasts of a real airplane. The hotel is built around a real Boeing, so you will actually feel like you are flying when you are in some places. Since it is in the middle of a forest, you will also be transported into a make believe 'lost' world with a plane wreck to boot. It sure will give you a unique stay and make your holiday truly exciting.
Maybe because it is in Germany, this hotel is built around cars. All the rooms have cars as their theme. Another addition to staying in this hotel is that you can actually see a restoration of a classic car in progress anytime of the year you choose to go. It is also close to many of the car factories and you can get a glimpse of the German efficiency here.
This hotel will satisfy your dreams of staying in a palace. This was a restoration project done successfully and is a fairy tale come true. The fact that this was an original palace just adds to its charm. This is also a great site for weddings and other grand functions.
If you ever fancied sleeping in a mine and are not claustrophobic, then this is the place for you. You get to sleep 155m underground and are also taken on tours to see the vast lakes and the many caverns. This is truly an unusual hotel and is bound to leave you speechless.
There are so many more unusual hotels around the world. All it takes to get there is a little bit of research and a sizable wallet. But it does give you an amazing experience of a lifetime.


manuscript is in fine tuning mode.
query, 3 sample chapters, done.
1. foreward. does the person who writes it get a cut? do you have them sign something, i'm sure. how exactly do you go about this, not having any bites from an agent or publisher first? i want to approach a few people, and have NO idea where to start.
2. proposal. some guides say do a paragraph for each page of each chapter. will a graph for each chapter do?
3. length. how do you know how long it will be in book format, assuming i'm writing in word with 1" margins on 12 font arial and double spaced?
My area is novel writing, not memoirs, but I think they are similar.
1. Never heard of paying someone to do a foreword. However getting someone to write one who will help your book is not easy... They don't want to put their name on anything that will lower their prestige in the reader's eyes.
2. Never heard of a paragraph per page: Have heard of a paragraph per chapter. Do not understand how a graph would apply.
3. I writer my ms with 60 spaces across and 25 lines down. This gives me a nice 250 words per page and lots of big margins. I use courier 12 which is mono-spaced and easier to correct.
I would first send a query letter telling the publisher what there is about your memoir that would make people want to buy it and asking if they are interested.
thanks for the help. i guess there's lots up ot the imagination with proposals!
did the proposal and have been querying. got an agent bite!

Chairman Len Dean said "This new project acquisition in central Australia aligns to the Company's strategy to pursue commodities essential to the renewable energy future of the planet. These are primarily lithium and cobalt which are in high demand for modern batteries. Furthermore, Northern Cobalt is in an excellent position heading in 2018 with a resource upgrade planned at our advanced Wollogorang Cobalt Project which will then form the basis of early scoping studies. I am very pleased to see such rapid progress after successfully listing only 12 weeks ago on the ASX".

Ahmed Barzani revolt refers to the first of the major Barzani revolts and the third Kurdish nationalistic insurrection in modern Iraq. The revolt began in 1931, after Ahmed Barzani, one of the most prominent Kurdish leaders in southern Kurdistan, succeeded in unifying a number of other Kurdish tribes. The ambitious Kurdish leader enlisted a number of Kurdish leaders into the revolt, including his young brother Mustafa Barzani, who became one of the most notorious commanders during this revolt. The Barzani forces were eventually overpowered by the Iraqi Army with British support, forcing the leaders of Barzan to go underground.

Ahmed Barzani was later forced to flee to Turkey, where he was held in detention and then sent to exile in the south of Iraq. Although initially a tribal dispute, the involvement of the Iraqi government inadvertently led to the growth of Shaykh Ahmed and Mulla Mustafa Barzani as prominent Kurdish leaders. Throughout these early conflicts the Barzanis consistently displayed their leadership and military prowess, providing steady opposition to the fledgling Iraqi military. It is speculated that exile in the major cities exposed the Barzanis to the ideas of urban Kurdish nationalism.

Background

Early Kurdish separatism

Shortly after the final accords of World War I, Sheykh Mahmud Barzanji of the Qadiriyyah order of Sufis, the most influential personality in southern Kurdistan, was appointed Governor of the former sanjak of Duhok. Sheikh Mahmud led the first Kurdish revolt in British-controlled southern Kurdistan (Iraqi Kurdistan) in May 1919. Using his authority as a religious leader, Sheykh Mahmud called for a jihad against the British in 1919 and thus acquired the support of many Kurds indifferent to the nationalist struggle. Although the intensity of their struggle was motivated by religion, Kurdish peasantry seized the idea of "national and political liberty for all" and strove for "an improvement in their social standing".

Among Mahmud's many supporters and leaders was 16-year-old Mustafa Barzani, the future leader of the Kurdish nationalist cause and commander of Peshmerga forces in Kurdish Iraq. The Barzani fighters were only a part of the Sheykh's 500-person force. As the British became aware of the sheikh's growing political and military power, they were forced to respond militarily. Two British brigades were deployed to defeat Sheikh Mahmoud's fighters at Darbandi Bazyan near Sulaimaniyah in June 1919. Sheikh Mahmoud was eventually arrested and exiled to India in 1921. Mahmud's fighters continued to oppose British rule after his arrest. Although no longer organized under one leader, this intertribal force was "actively anti-British", engaging in hit-and-run attacks, killing British military officers and participating in other anti-British activities. In Turkey some Kurds left the ranks of the Turkish army to join the Kurdish army.

After the Treaty of Sèvres, which settled some territories, Sulaymaniya still remained under direct control of the British High Commissioner. After the subsequent penetration of the Turkish "Özdemir" Detachment into the area, an attempt was made by the British to counter this by appointing Sheykh Mahmud, who was returned from his exile, as Governor once again, on 14 September 1922.

Sheykh Mahmud revolted again and in November declared himself King of the Kingdom of Kurdistan. Members of his cabinet included Members of his cabinet included:

Shaikh Qadir Hafeed – Prime Minister
Abdulkarim Alaka – Finance Minister
Ahmed Bagy Fatah Bag – Customs Minister
Hajy Mala Saeed Karkukli – Justice Minister
Hema Abdullah Agha – Labour Minister.

Barzanji was defeated by the British in July 1924. After the British government finally defeated Sheykh Mahmud, they signed Iraq over to King Faisal I and a new Arab-led government. In January 1926 the League of Nations gave the mandate over the territory to Mandatory Iraq, with the provision for special rights for Kurds.

Sheykh Ahmed's background

After the execution of Shaykh Abd al-Salam in 1914 by Turkish authorities, his 18-year-old brother, Ahmed Barzani, took charge of the tribe. Ahmed, described as "young and unstable", continued to rule as his brother had, seizing both religious and political power and becoming Shaykh of the region. Shaykh Ahmad's growing religious authority would eventually lead to conflict.

Convinced of Ahmad's divineness, Mulla Abd al-Rahman proclaimed the Shaykh to be "God" and declared himself a prophet. Although Abd al-Rahman was killed by Shaykh Ahmad's brother Muhammad Sadiq, the ideas of Ahmad's divineness spread.

1931 events

Revolt

Shaykh Ahmed's eccentricities would result in his becoming the target of rival tribes by 1931. As the numerous tribal strikes and counter-strikes involving the Barzanis began to plague the countryside, the new Iraqi government, having recently agreed to independence with Britain, attempted to destroy the contentious Barzani tribe. Conflict between the Barzanis and Iraqi forces began in late 1931 and continued through 1932. Commanding Barzani fighters was Shaykh Ahmed's younger brother, Mulla Mustafa Barzani. Mustafa would rise to prominence against the Iraqi forces (who were supplemented by British commanders and the British Royal Air Force).

Links to the Ararat revolt
Ahmed Barzani was the center of focus of British, Iraqi and Turkish discontent. He was very sympathetic to the Kurdish movements in the north led by Khoyboun (the Ararat Revolt). He received many Kurds, who were seeking sanctuary in Barzan, including Kor Hussein Pasha. In September 1930 a Turkish military attaché in Baghdad told Iraq's Prime Minister Nuri Said, "The Turkish military operations in Ararat were very successful. The army will carry similar operations to the west of the Lake of Wan. We expect these operations to come to an end soon. The Turkish army will mobilize along the Iraq-Turkey border if the Iraqi Army moves against the Sheikh Barzan." In fact, Ismet Inönü complained to Nuri Said in Ankara that Sheikh Ahmed was supporting the insurrection in Ararat.

Final accords
By June 1932 Shaykh Ahmed Barzani, his brothers and a small contingent of men were forced to seek asylum in Turkey. Although Ahmad was separated from his followers and sent to Ankara, Mulla Mustafa and Muhammad Sadiq continued to fight Iraqi forces for another year before surrendering. After swearing an oath to King Faysal of Iraq, the Barzanis were allowed to return to Barzan in spring 1933, where they found their "devoutly loyal" forces had kept their organization and weapons.

Aftermath
Eventually Mulla Mustafa was reunited with Shaykh Ahmad Barzani, as the Iraqi government arrested the brothers and exiled them to Mosul in 1933. The two Barzanis were transferred to various cities in Iraq throughout the 1930s and early 1940s. During this time their stops included Mosul, Baghdad, Nasiriya, Kifri and Altin Kopru before finally ending in Sulaymaniya. Meanwhile, back in Barzan, the remaining Barzani tribal fighters were faced with constant pressures of arrest or death.

UK government in 'pretty good shape' for no-deal Brexit - top official
LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's government is in "pretty good shape" if it needs to leave the European Union without a transition deal on Oct. 31, Cabinet Secretary Mark Sedwill, the country's top civil servant, said on Thursday.
British officials had done a lot of work to prepare for a no-deal Brexit before the original Brexit deadline of March 29, and work had continued since, though preparedness did vary between industries, Sedwill said at an event hosted by the Institute for Government think tank.

Featuring a superfine cotton in a luxurious satin stripe, these boxer shorts are designed by Derek Rose exclusively for Club Members.
Designed for a more generous fit, the classic fit boxer shorts feature a back panel to avoid the uncomfortable rear centre seam; ideal for those who prefer more coverage and a relaxed shape. The waistband is also fully elasticated and can be adjusted using the traditional two-button fly.
Returns of underwear: Because of the nature of the garments, the Club is only able to accept returns of underwear that are completely unworn. The Club will accept returns of these garments provided they are in the original condition with packaging and tags intact and have not been tried on. In the extremely rare case of a defect in the garment, the Club will provide a replacement.

FRANK ANGONES
I was born in Miami, FL, to a pair of first generation Cuban-Americans. I've always been obsessed with cinematic storytelling; my Dad likes to tell the story of us sneaking into a full screening of E.T. when I was three. We had to sit on the steps in the aisle and he claims it was the longest he had ever seen me sit still and shut up. But the story my Dad won't always tell is how he inadvertently introduced me to the power of television. My father was very warm and loving at home and would always goof around with me, but he was also the guy who woke up early, put on a suit, and went to work at a big office building downtown. I never knew he could have a sense of humor on his own terms. Until one night, I caught him falling off the couch in a fit of laughter while watching an old episode of Taxi. After a long, stressful day of work, my father, the dictionary definition of "straight-laced" could be reduced to a giggle fit by a couple of well-placed lines by Christopher Lloyd. That's why I want to be a Television Writer: to make serious men fall off of couches.
I wrote a 30 Rock with my writing partner Amy Higgins.
Being a boorish buffoon myself, I am frequently drawn to my own kind. That's why the characters that always hit me right in the gut are David Brent from The Office and Hank Kingsley from The Larry Sanders Show. On the surface, both are desperate, grandstanding blowhards; wannabe showmen living smaller-than-life lives. They constantly clamor to be the center of attention despite the fact that they have nothing of substance to offer. Just ego and their unbelievable, unjustified cockiness. They are men who desperately want to be the comedic leads, and their awkward attempts become inadvertently hilarious. On a deeper level, both these are characters that just want to be loved and have a secret fear that they're not worthy of it. Also, I do the best "David Brent Dance" this side of the Atlantic. HEY NOW.

I've pointed out to morons before that the premise "people ought to be able to marry anyone they want" is flawed. The government already forbids minors from marrying, so it has just as much a right to forbid homosexuals from marrying. The idiotic "people can marry anyone they want" line of reasoning is a slippery slope into the legalization of child-molestation. With the weak and ineffective punishments people (other than whites of course) get for it already, it seems it almost is legal. If you are an illegal alien it is. You see dirty old men (illegals of course) holding hands with pregnant 15 year old girls pushing a stoller of the kid they had by him at 14 at the Walmart all the time if you live in a border state. This nation is going to become one giant perverted orgy if we can't get some sort of decent 3rd party going soon because the Republitards and the Demoncraps are clearly both Satan's lackies. But since they'll probably suspend elections by 2012 anyway (I fully expect it) and declare Maobama chairman for life, I think this country is pretty much a lost cause already. That idiotic global warming treaty the doofus in chief is going to sign in December is going to turn all our Sovereignty over to the UN anyway. Come quickly Lord Jesus!

"The government already forbids minors from marrying, so it has just as much a right to forbid homosexuals from marrying." You continue to baffle me with your odd extrapolation of logic. In the eyes of the law a child isn't necessarily mature enough to enter into marriage. The same argument can't be made for homosexuals. The government has no right to keep homosexuals from marriage in the same sense it can with minors. Good job.
And please nobody try to quote "thou shall not speak ill of the ruler of thy people" at me. That was an Old Testament precept to the Jewish people alone and only refers to the high priest, as is shown in Acts when Paul calls the highpriest a whited supelchur or some such and gets punched in the face for it, and then he says "I didn't know he was thr highpriest for it is written thous shalt not speak ill of the ruler of thy people.". Herod also ruled the people, but Jesus said "go tell that fox…" It only covers the highpriest and I can speak ill of him too because I'm not an Israelite and they don't even have a highpriest anymore anyway.

My point stupid is that the argument "people should be able to marry anyone they want" is defeated by the fact that the same people would (presumably) allow that the law which forbids an adult from marrying a minor is just. Clearly then they are inarticulate morons who cannot properly word their support for perversion. If pervs want to defile each other in the privacy of their own home then why don't they just do it and shut up and about it? They don't need to flaunt their devilish dementia in public and certainly do not need to have any sanction granted to their Satanic union by the state. What you do to another mans butt keep to your own putrid self and to Satan.

Wow man. You really are the most crude, vile individual I've ever had the displeasure of talking to online. And that's quite a shame, because I really thought you possessed an ounce of intelligence, but apparently I was mistaken.
Let me rephrase this: an adult should have the right to marry any adult he or she pleases.
The state is SECULAR. A SECULAR state has no business with what you consider "satanic." If this were a Christian nation, perhaps that would be different, but as it isn't, gtfo.

Only religious people say that having sex outside marriage is a sin, so why do you perverts even need to get married other than rile religious people up? You don't mind sinning. Now, the state gets involved in this religious concept of marriage to ensure that society's best interests are being served. At least that used to be the reason. But today the only reason they are pushing queer marriage is population control. Tyrants need a small population they can control. The state wants to convert as many white and black school children they can to being queers so that they can bring the white and black population, and all other populations that speak English, down to almost nothing and then they can exploit the exclusively Spanish speaking population that will be left as slaves. And if Maobama can't accomplish that then there will be forced sterlization and death camps.
You are a total loon.

That's why I tend to ignore him.
Cory, for once I think we completely agree.
Caleb | November 4, 2009 at 10:16 am
Yeah… COMPLEEEEETE LOOOOOOON… sounds like somebody's been spending too much time by themselves watching conspiracy theory videos on Youtube… sounds a lot like some crap Marcion would spew too… Rey you have completely lost ANY shred of respect and sanity that I may have once given you…
back to the subject at hand…
Isn't this thing by Mohler another attempt by the extreme right to freak us all out that Obama is the antichrist hellbent on taking away our freedoms? I didn't vote for the guy BUT… I seriously doubt Obama's intent is to undermine the freedom of the American people… although based on his socialist agenda, he may ultimately do some of that indirectly…
Whether or not we are a Christian nation remains to be seen… the founders largely believed in the God of the bible… but even a couple of them were deists I think…
All of this is an individual's decision. It is not our jobs to go policing everybody on what they deem as "love"… HOWEVER… it is our duty to protect those who are on the receiving end of malicious intent. Just because somebody is a homosexual doesn't give anybody else the right to hurt them because of it. This goes for anybody elses "life" choice… God says "vengeance is mine".
Marriage is a covenant between 3 people: Him, her, and God. Period. No piece of paper makes a person any more married than another. I do NOT support the legalisation of homosexual marriage… but this is a free country and God did give us free will. He also said He will give people over to their perverse thinking and ways if they choose a life outside of Him.
So tell me… what do you expect in a nation that largely lives outside of God? The people that support this and design the legislation for homosexual marriage will be held accountable to God in the end.
But back to the point… we as a society need to protect children and the naive… I don't think we'll ever get to the point where we as a nation will say it's okay to molest children or animals or to hurt anybody because of race or sexuality or color or creed. Underneath all of humanity runs a thread of God's truth… it's built in… though there are some who simply choose to ignore it for various reasons… those are the ones we need to be on the lookout for… those are the ones that need to be prosecuted…
Other than that I say live and let live. In the end we know God will sort out this mess, one by one. There will be justice.
and PLEASE don't nitpick all I said trying to find some cryptic meaning. Thank you.

Hey Caleb.
"Whether or not we are a Christian nation remains to be seen… the founders largely believed in the God of the bible… but even a couple of them were deists I think…" Whatever the founding fathers believed is largely irrelevant. We're an entirely (or at least, we should be) a secular nation, meaning religion plays absolutely no role in the workings of our government. And yes, several founding fathers were, in fact, deists. Many of them also strongly opposed religion insofar as it concerns people on a large scale. But again, it's really a moot point. The founding fathers understood that to protect individual freedoms of ALL citizens the state must remain entirely secular.
"Marriage is a covenant between 3 people: Him, her, and God. Period." In a religious sense, sure, but the debate over gay marriage has nothing to do with marriage in a religious sense, but a legal one. If a particular church wishes to not marry a gay couple, that's its prerogative, but it's a gross injustice to forbid two consenting adults from receiving the same rights a heterosexual couple has.
Caleb, anyone who's been paying attention knows that Obama's "safe school czar" praises the founder of NAMBLA, that several of his czars have praised Mao, and that one of his czars is on record supporting forced sterilization. Let's just hope you don't end up eating your words, but I can almost guarantee you will.
But its bigger than Obama. He's just a figure head. Rich guys behind the scenes have had this plan in the works for a while. Bush started the bailouts remember. The communist takeover America didn't start with Obama. He's just accelerating it, or rather its being accelerated while he's the figure head public face of the shadow government which is the antichrist.

Hey Rey, don't you have your own blog where you can promote this crap? Better yet, why don't you make a few YouTube videos? You'll fit in nicely over there.
The founding fathers were mostly Deists. Those who were Christians were what you might call liberal Christians. They depsised the OT God and his cruelty and tyranny and accepted only the example of Jesus. The OT God would (like modern Calvinists) rather have a theocrasy that stones 'blasphemers' to death. But Jesus would allow religious liberty. Hence it is the rejection of the OT that brought us the Constitution. Look at the Jefferson Bible. Look at Paine's Age of Reason where he argues that revelation is only revelation to thew first person who receieves it and to everyone else it is worthless hearsay. He believed that there is a God who has never spoken to anyone but who can be discerned in nature by reason, which reason points us in a moral direction to establish a free and just society. This is the guy who wrote the Federalist Papers. He was not a Christian in the sense you think of a Christian. He did praise the moral teachings of Jesus but repudiated the doctrinal and ceremonial system of the NT as mere priestcraft. Ignorance of American history is rank both among atheists and monotheists.
And yet, it's rather irrelevant in this current conversation…
