Gambling (Legal)
The 1874 Arkansas Constitution dealt with only one type of gambling: lotteries. Article 19, section 14, originally prohibited lotteries in all forms in the state. Thus, under the state constitution, gambling aside from lotteries was not originally prohibited and was a matter subject to various state laws. However, the state constitution did not define "lottery," and this lack of definition allowed horse racing (and the gambling that accompanied it) to take place in the state. In the late 1890s, Sportsman Park was built on the southeastern side of Hot Springs (Garland County), sparking interest in bringing the increasingly popular sport of Thoroughbred racing to Arkansas. In 1902, William McGuigan, a member of the Arkansas General Assembly, bought land on Malvern …
Gardner, Jeff (Lynching of)
On April 18, 1896, a twenty-one-year-old African-American man named Jeff (sometimes called Jefferson) Gardner was hanged in Cleveland County, ten miles north of Warren (Bradley County), for allegedly assaulting the daughter of a white man named Jeff Burrows (sometimes identified as Barrow). News of the lynching first appeared in the Arkansas Gazette on April 21. According to this and other reports, Gardner went to the home of Burrows, described by the Hopkinsville Kentuckian as "a respectable white man living near Warren," and found only the children at home. One sister was sick, and Gardner allegedly drove other children from the house. The Gazette reported that one little boy attacked Gardner with a hoe in an attempt to protect his older …
Gary v. Stevenson
The Arkansas State Supreme Court adjudicated Gary v. Stevenson, a freedom suit and racial-identity trial, in 1858. It was one of an increasing number of racial-identity suits in the South during the last decade before the Civil War. In this case, Thomas Gary sued slaveholder Remson Stevenson in an attempt to win his freedom from slavery. Gary, aged about sixteen in 1858, whom witnesses described as having sandy-colored hair and blue eyes, appeared to be white. He contended that he was lawfully free because he was the white son of white parents. Stevenson, a slaveholder in Van Buren (Crawford County), countered that Gary was the child of an enslaved mother and therefore not white; this made him a slave for …
Gent v. Arkansas
Gent v. Arkansas was a U.S. Supreme Court case in which an Arkansas law designed to eliminate the distribution of obscene material was challenged. Though it did not touch directly upon the limits of the state's ability to control obscenity, it did reinforce legal opinion that standards for obscenity must be those applied by the U.S. Supreme Court rather than local standards. In 1961, the Arkansas legislature passed Act 261, which, among other things, purported to eliminate obscene material, which was defined by the current community standards applied by the average person. The legislature based the wording of Act 261 on a model act drafted by the Council for Periodical Distributors Associations (CPDA) designed to give public prosecutors the authority …
Gentry, Thomas Jefferson
Thomas Jefferson (Tom or T. J.) Gentry Jr. served two terms as Arkansas's attorney general (1953–1956) and, during his tenure, was the state's most influential racially moderate elected official. He helped guide the state's initial response to the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision, putting the state on an early path that won accolades from national Black press and condemnations from segregationists. Gentry's (and the state's) moderation, though, could not survive the rise of massive resistance that followed the Arkansas congressional delegation's signing of the Southern Manifesto in March 1956. He would never win statewide office again, and a once promising political career had been derailed. Tom Gentry was born in Malvern (Hot Spring County) on April 3, 1915, …
George (Lynching of)
On May 29, 1925, an African American man identified only as George was shot by a mob near Camden (Ouachita County) for allegedly attempting to attack a white woman in nearby Louann (Ouachita County). George, originally from Little Rock (Pulaski County), was working in the oil fields that had sprung up around Camden in the early 1920s. According to a later report, early on May 29, George had come to the home of a widow near Louann, where she lived with her three children. He approached her on the porch and said he had been watching her for some time, "waiting to get [her] alone some time, and now's good enough." He grabbed her, but she managed to escape. At …
Gibbs, Mifflin Wistar
Mifflin Wistar Gibbs was a Little Rock (Pulaski County) businessman, a politician, and the first elected African-American municipal judge in the United States. Mifflin Gibbs was born on April 17, 1823, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the eldest of four children born to Jonathan and Maria Gibbs. His father, a Methodist minister, died when Mifflin was a child, and his mother worked as a laundress. Gibbs learned carpentry through an apprenticeship. He read widely and attended debates at the Philadelphia Library Company of Colored Persons. He had a chance to practice his own oratory in the 1840s when Frederick Douglass invited him to help conduct an abolitionist lecture tour. Journeying to California soon after the gold rush of 1849, he became a …
Gibson, J. W. (Murder of)
On December 23, 1920, in what one newspaper called "One of the most dreadful tragedies that the Negroes of the City of Helena has [sic] ever been called on to witness," Professor J. W. Gibson was killed by a night watchman in Helena (Phillips County). Depending on how the word "lynching" is interpreted, this may have been an incident of police brutality, or Professor Gibson may in fact have been lynched. The Arkansas Gazette filed no report on Gibson's death. The only national coverage appears to be a rather belated report in the Dallas Express, an African-American newspaper published in Texas. Not much is known about Gibson. According to the Express, not only did Gibson teach in Helena, but he …
Gifford (Lynching of)
A young man named Gifford was shot to death in the Franklin County jail in Ozark (Franklin County) on December 8, 1869, for his role in the murder of a man named Eubanks. Gifford, Eubanks, and Thomas West were all attending "a candy pull at Mr. Shenil's" in Franklin County on November 26, 1869, when West accosted Eubanks for "having spoken disrespectfully to a lady" at the event. When Eubanks denied the accusation, West pulled a knife and "commenced cutting at him" as Gifford began beating him over the head with a pistol. Eubanks fled his attackers as Gifford fired at him, ultimately collapsing after running "several hundred yards." Eubanks died around midnight the next day. A posse captured Gifford …
Gilmore, Felix (Lynching of)
On May 26, 1916, Felix Gilmore (sometimes referred to as Felix/Phelix Gilman or Gillmore) was hanged by a mob near Prescott (Nevada County) for allegedly attempting to assault a seventeen-year-old girl. At the time of the federal census in 1910 (six years before the incident), Gilmore was listed as a ten-year-old African American living in Prescott with his parents, Frank and Pearl Gilmore. His father was working in a sawmill, and his mother was a washerwoman. They were renting their home, and they could all read and write. If the census record is correct, Gilmore was only sixteen at the time of his death, although newspapers reported him to be older. He had apparently been in trouble before. According to …
Glaze, Thomas Arthur (Tom)
Thomas Arthur (Tom) Glaze was a lawyer whose crusade against election fraud in the 1960s and 1970s propelled him into politics and a thirty-year career as a trial and appellate judge. Fresh out of law school in 1964, Glaze went to work for an organization that investigated election fraud and irregularities—an organization secretly funded by Republican Winthrop Rockefeller. The experience consumed him and inspired the rest of his legal career. As a deputy attorney general in 1969, Glaze rewrote Arkansas election laws, although the Arkansas General Assembly drastically weakened his draft before enacting the reforms. He was a justice of the Arkansas Supreme Court for twenty-two years, retiring in 2008. He recounted his battles with what he called "vote thieves" …
Glover, D. D.
aka: David Delano Glover
David Delano "D. D." Glover served in the Arkansas legislature (1909–1911), as prosecuting attorney of Arkansas's Seventh Judicial Circuit (1913–1917), and as a Democratic representative to the U.S. Congress from Arkansas's Sixth Congressional District (1929–1935). During Glover's tenure in the Arkansas legislature, he chaired the Capitol Commission that oversaw the troubled completion of the Arkansas State Capitol building. D. D. Glover, the second of William H. Glover and Margaret Crowson Glover's seven children, was born on January 18, 1868, in Prattsville (Grant County), where his parents owned a family farm. He attended schools in Prattsville and Sheridan (Grant County) and graduated from Sheridan High School in 1886. On December 24, 1891, Glover married Roberta Theodosia Quinn, whose father, Thomas W. …
Gould, Godfrey (Lynching of)
On July 30, 1896, an African American man named Godfrey Gould was lynched by a mob of more than 100 people in Brinkley (Monroe County) for having allegedly attempted to rape a woman. One early report of Gould's alleged crime can be found in the July 22, 1896, issue of the Helena Weekly World, which reported that, on Monday, July 13, Gould "attempted to assault one of the gay damsels of his color, when she forcibly and effectively resisted by sending a ball [bullet] through his left cheek, passing out of his right eye." He was soon arrested by Deputy Sheriffs Sell Johnson and J. A. Rogers, assisted by Deputy Sheriff W. B. Daizell, who "were mindful of his comfort" …
Graham, Fred Patterson
Journalist Fred Graham was the dean of television news Supreme Court reporting in the 1970s and into the 1980s. Building upon his tenure as the U.S. Supreme Court reporter for the New York Times, and as law correspondent for CBS News, Graham pioneered television coverage of the nation's highest court. Later, he became involved in the launch of cable television's Court TV, where he continued to report and offer analysis of the American legal system and legal issues in the United States. Fred Patterson Graham was born in Little Rock (Pulaski County) on October 6, 1931, to Otis and Lois Graham. His family included an older sister and two younger brothers. He received his early education in Texarkana (Miller County) …
Grand Gulf Affair
Grand Gulf Nuclear Generating Station is a nuclear-powered electricity-generating station on the eastern bank of the Mississippi River downstream from Vicksburg, Mississippi, near the town of Port Gibson. Issues surrounding the financing of the station convulsed politics in Arkansas for the last two decades of the twentieth century and continued to create legal controversy into 2022 over the financial harm the giant plant did to homeowners and other power users in Arkansas, Mississippi, and Louisiana. The state of Mississippi reopened the controversy before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in 2017 by alleging that Entergy had greatly overcharged Mississippians and others, perhaps by billions of dollars, and the other states eventually joined the litigation. Mississippi accepted a sizable settlement offer by …
Graves, Levi (Lynching of)
A sixteen-year-old African-American boy named Levi Graves was lynched on August 24, 1888, in Sevier County for having allegedly molested and injured, the previous day, a five-year-old white girl. The girl was the daughter of Joseph A. Tally (whose name is also rendered J. F. Talley in some reports), a "highly respected farmer of the community." According to the Arkansas Gazette, Graves was the "son of Peter Graves, a well-known and utterly worthless old negro living near Brownstown." Census records show that, in 1880, Levi Graves, then eight years old, was living with his parents, Peter and Patsey Graves, in Mineral Springs (Howard County). He was one of ten children in the household. His parents were listed as farm laborers, …
Green (Lynching of)
On June 24, 1877, an African-American man identified only as Green was shot to death in Lonoke County after being arrested for his alleged participation in the murders of several members of the Eagle family in 1874. According to reports, a constable out searching for a suspect in an assault on a local woman came across Green and took him to the office of the justice of the peace, T. A. Beard. During the night, he was housed there under guard while authorities waited for a train to take him to Little Rock (Pulaski County). At 11:00 p.m. on the night of June 24, Green was sleeping on the floor of the office while Beard slept in a nearby room …
Green, Crane (Lynching of)
On July 19, 1903, a twenty-three-year-old African American man named Crane Green was lynched near Warren (Bradley County) for allegedly assaulting the daughter of a white sawmill worker named Baker. Baker and Green were employees of Childs' mill near Warren. Green allegedly assaulted Baker's thirteen-year-old daughter on Saturday, July 18, leaving her "considerably injured." Green escaped, but the word went out, and local officers sent his description to law enforcement officers throughout the region. He was eventually captured in Lanark (Bradley County). A posse started out to take him to the county jail, but on the way they encountered a mob. According to the Pine Bluff Daily Graphic, the mob had assembled on the Kingsland Road about five miles north …
In 1910, an Arkansas tenant farmer named Steve Green fled the state to Chicago, Illinois, after allegedly killing his employer, William Sidle (sometimes referred to as Seidel or Saddle), near Jericho (Crittenden County). He narrowly escaped extradition back to Arkansas after his case was taken up by prominent African Americans in Chicago, including Ida Wells-Barnett. There is no record of Steve Green in Arkansas census records. According to an article written by W. E. B. Du Bois in the November 10, 1910, issue of The Crisis, Green was born in Tennessee in 1862 and was totally uneducated. There was an African American named Steve Green living in Civil District 15 in Shelby County, Tennessee, in 1900. He was born in …
Greenwood, Bob (Lynching of)
On December 2, 1893, an African-American man named Bob Greenwood was shot by so-called whitecappers who went to his home near Cherry Valley (Cross County) to whip his wife after an altercation. (The terms "whitecapping," "night riding," and "bald knobbing" denote extralegal acts of violence targeting select groups and carried out by vigilantes under cover of night or disguise such as masks.) While most newspapers were unsure of what precipitated the lynching, the December 17 edition of the Arkansas Gazette reported that the children of a white man (William Wilson) and the children of an African-American man (Bob Greenwood) had an argument, and their mothers joined in the quarrel. When Wilson's wife reported this to her husband, he became incensed. …
Greeson, Martin White
Martin White Greeson was an attorney and civic activist who spent most of his adult life advocating for the construction of a dam on the Little Missouri River. He believed that such a structure was critical both to flood prevention and economic development. While he did not live to see his dream come to fruition, the dam was completed not long after his death. The resulting Lake Greeson was named in his honor. Martin W. Greeson was born on November 7, 1866, in Clinton (Van Buren County). He was one of two children of Hartwell and Louisa Greeson, and he had two half-sisters from his father's previous marriage. He received his early education in the local schools, and he himself …
Gregg, Lafayette
One of the most enigmatic, if relatively unknown, figures in Arkansas history is Judge Lafayette Gregg. Gregg was a member of one of the pioneering families in northwest Arkansas and was involved in one way or another in nearly every major historical event in Arkansas history that happened during his lifetime. Although most remembered as an instrumental figure in the location of Arkansas Industrial University—later the University of Arkansas (UA) in Fayetteville (Washington County)—in northwest Arkansas, he was also a banker, lawyer, state representative, Civil War veteran, and Arkansas Supreme Court justice. At the time of his death, Gregg was in service to Arkansas helping prepare the state's exhibition for the 1893 World's Fair. Lafayette Gregg was born on February …
The Gridiron Show is a satirical musical production that makes good-natured fun of prominent people in politics, business, the judiciary, and the legal profession. It is presented biennially in Little Rock (Pulaski County) by Gridiron Productions, Inc., a nonprofit corporation composed of lawyers and others associated with the legal profession. All cast members are either lawyers or connected to the legal profession by employment, family ties, or friendship, and all are unpaid. The director, choreographer, musical director, and band are paid professionals. The script is written by a group called the Clandestine Committee. The Gridiron Show was first presented in 1916 by members of what was then the Little Rock Bar Association at a Gridiron luncheon. The luncheon was held …
Gross, Tabbs
Tabbs Gross was a former slave who, as a lawyer and newspaper publisher, played an active role in Arkansas politics during Reconstruction. A political gadfly, he worked hard to secure greater influence within the Republican Party for the newly freed and enfranchised African-American population. Tabbs Gross was born a slave in Kentucky in 1820. Purchasing his freedom prior to the Civil War, he moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, where he aided slaves using the Underground Railroad, both there and in New England. He also served in Cincinnati's Black Brigade during the war. After the war, Gross continued his efforts on behalf of the former slaves, serving as the head of a local "Committee to Get Homes for Refugees." He soon decided …
Gunter, James Houston (Jim), Jr.
Lawyer and politician James Houston Gunter Jr. was a prosecutor and judge for thirty-six years in the late twentieth century and early twenty-first century, spending the final eight years of his public career as a justice on the Arkansas Supreme Court. He retired after one term on the Supreme Court and returned to a private law practice and cattle farming. James Gunter was born on March 8, 1943, in Atlanta, Texas, the oldest of four children of James H. Gunter Sr. and Helen Marie Long Gunter. His father went into the U.S. Army when Gunter was an infant, and he and his mother lived with his grandmother until World War II ended. The family lived in Arkansas on the farm …
Guy v. Daniel
aka: Abby Guy v. William Daniel
Abby Guy v. William Daniel was a freedom suit and racial identity case brought before the Arkansas Supreme Court in January 1861. The case originated in the Ashley County Circuit Court in July 1855 when Abby Guy sued William Daniel, whom she said wrongfully held her and her children in slavery. According to Guy, she and her family were free white people. After a jury decided in favor of Guy, Daniel appealed the case to the Arkansas Supreme Court, which, in the end, declined to overturn the lower court's verdict. Guy and her children were freed. Racial identity trials, in which the outcome rested on whether or not one party was white, were not unusual in the South. Guy v. …

Ministry of Energy: Natural gas from Black Sea will be exported through Onesti – Isaccea – Negru Voda network
De Razvan Diaconu
The Ministry of Energy issued for Transgaz the construction permit for the consolidation of the transport system between Onesti (Bacau) and Isaccea (Tulcea) and for the capacity to reverse the gas flow on Isaccea-Negru Voda pipeline, according to a release issued by the ministry.
The project "can contribute to creating a transport corridor between the markets of Greece, Bulgaria, Romania and Ukraine, as the interconnection between Greece and Bulgaria will be obtained this way," said the source quoted.
The project will also allow directing some gas volumes to the Republic of Moldova, according to a document from Transgaz, which operates the national gas transport system (SNT).
"By implementing the Project, supplying Bulgaria can be ensured from the National Transport System on the SNT corridor – Onesti – Sendreni – Isaccea – Tranzit 1 – Negru Voda. Also, in the event of the gas takeover from the Black Sea continental shelf in the Transit 1 pipeline, it is possible to simultaneously ensure the supply in Bulgaria, the supply in deficient areas of SNT, and direct a quantity of gas to Podisor – Mosu or export a quantity of natural gas to Republic of Moldova," says Transgaz in the project presentation document issued in December 2017.
The works would take place between 2018 and 2019. This year, Phase I should be completed and the project should put into operation, and the second part of these works is to be completed in 2019.
The total value of the works is almost RON 17 million.
"The project we have just authorized will allow Romania to supply Bulgaria with natural gas from its own production, but will also allow Transgaz to take over natural gas from the Black Sea continental shelf. The benefits of the project will also be felt in terms of gas supplies to different regions of the country, especially during the winter when, due to low temperatures, consumption increases very much," says the Energy Minister Anton Anton in the release mentioned.

Yes the monster of all Space Chillies. This one is the biggest one we have grown that has also spent some stella time in zero gravity. Has a real corkscrew twist shape. It is quite mild and sweet and certainly big enough to stuff. Not many can brag that they have space chillies – be one of the first.


When it comes to recruiting Personal Trainers, "it's going to be harder to find them and harder to keep them." – Ryan Koski, VFA Learning.
I'm grateful to have had a recent catch-up with Ryan Koski of VFA Learning. He outlined for me the recent changes to the Fitness training packages. It's clear that these changes are going to have a significant impact on the way in clubs and studios recruit their fitness teams in the future.
Cert III in Fitness will effectively disappear.
New rules stipulate that the Cert III in Fitness is not allowed to be any shorter than 12 months in duration and the Cert IV in Personal Training no shorter than 6 months.* On the face of it, this is 18 months to get a Cert IV in Personal Training.
However, to begin a Cert IV does not require the completed Cert III. It only requires certain key competencies. So expect to see many RTOs forgoing the full Cert III in favour of an abridged, incomplete Cert III that will lead directly into the Cert IV.
For example, VFA Learning will be offering a 'Foundation' course that covers the key units required to enter into a Cert IV in Personal Training. And instead of 18 months to completion, the time to qualification will be reduced to a (still significant) 12 months.
Entry into a fitness course is now a lot tougher.
Work experience is now compulsory for all fitness courses.
Compulsory work experience has not previously been a part of fitness course requirements. Under the new Training package, work experience hours are compulsory. Between the key units of the Cert III and the Cert IV, students must complete 45 hours of work experience. Sure, it's nothing like the hundreds of hours required for Childcare courses, for example, but it's a step in the right direction.
All of these changes will provide us with a higher standard of entry-level candidates, but it does mean fewer candidates overall.
With more clubs and fewer graduates, we need to be smarter recruiters.
Graduation numbers are declining but demand for Trainers is on the increase. As a result, recruiting for Personal Trainers is going to require a more considered approach. The good news is, there are a few things we can do right away to supplement the traditional job ad.
1. Embrace the opportunity to host work experience candidates.
You can train for skill, but you can't train for attitude. Taking on a work experience candidate is the greatest, non-committal method of assessing a candidate's capabilities. These students are obviously not about to start work soon, and you may not even need them, but it's important to build a network of key people to approach as soon as you get the sense you may need a new team member.
To help in this regard, HealthyPeople will be working with leading RTOs to assist new students with promotion to employers in their area as looking for work experience opportunities.
2. Connect with local candidates.
Just like prospecting for members, employers should consider spending a few minutes a week prospecting for great staff. To this end, HealthyPeople provides every fitness employer with a searchable list of candidates within 15km of their facility. You can sort by recently active, job type, keywords, and qualifications. It's a chance to get yourself in front of key candidates and build the relationship ahead of the available position.
3. Support and develop those you have on board.
Sure, this goes without saying, but it's worth taking a closer look at things in light of increased competition. Rather than assume that staff are satisfied, has there been any opportunity for them to express otherwise? Do you know their fitness career aspirations? Is there anything that can be done to bring these goals closer? Do you have a structured program to support professional development (a budget, for example, based on years in the role)? Are your managers are on board? Losing great staff because of bad managers is not unheard of.
Fitness staff are the most important elements of any fitness business. Employers should be prepared to find there is no longer a glut of ordinary applications, but a limited supply of highly employable candidates. To make sure you're well connected to the best staff and students as they become available, please review the modern recruiting options that HealthyPeople now has available.
*The reasoning being that people doing Cert III need more time to get their head around new concepts while those in a Cert IV are more experienced at studying and can more easily take on new concepts.
→ Established Personal Training Business- Now Available!
← Need a Fitness Job? Your FITREC Profile is Better Than a CV.
This should be good for existing and new trainers too. As supply of new graduates dries up wages should also increase, perhaps even to a level that people can actually make a real career out of fitness instead of it being a stop on the way to something else that does pay the bills.
Agreed Karen. I think it's going to be a good thing for all. Thank you for your comment.
Hi Healthy People! Thanks so much for this article… it's very relevant to me as a fitness educator, although this is the first I have heard of the new rules. Do you have any information about when these changes take effect, and whether they are national or state-based only? I can't find any information on the Fitness Australia website, and training.gov.au lists both the Sport, Training and Recreation Packages SIS and SIS10 as being current, with the former including both Cert III and IV in Fitness and the latter including neither.
Thanks, Rebekah. It's a pleasure. My understanding is that these changes are already in effect and that it is part of the national package (rather than state-based). I'll update this with confirmation in the next week. Regards, D.
Hi Rebekah, the current qual's are SIS30315 – Certificate III in Fitness and the SIS40215 – Certificate IV in Fitness. If you dig through these guidelines you will find the reference to work placement.

From idea to prototype: the 'Infuuts'
Physician-researcher Bernadette Jeremiasse saw parents in the Máxima Center running behind their cycling child. How much fun is it to race through the orange corridors when you're admitted in the hospital? Bernadette: 'The parents should be able to keep up with the clumsy hoses and a pole full of infusions! I thought: this must be solvable'. The idea came up for an 'Infuuts' (Dutch for bicycle (fiets) and infusion). In the meantime a prototype has been made. Hopefully there will soon be more 'infuutsen' in the Máxima Center, because they contribute to maximum exercise for children with cancer.
Bernadette tells: 'I made a sketch of a bicycle with the infusion pole but that's more difficult than you
think. It should be safe, stable, not too heavy and unwieldy'. She came into contact with the department Medical Technology and Clinical Physics (MTKF) of the UMC Utrecht where Jesse Bosma is working. He is a medical product designer. Bernadette and Jesse worked on a prototype together. Jeroen from 'the atelier', as the workshop MTKF is called, carried it out. A nice red bike that is put over the foot of an infusion pole was made.
'We now have a prototype of a children's bike that can move an infusion pole. The children of designer Jesse Bosma (3 and 5 years) have already cycled on it. And now comes the phase of testing. Together with physiotherapists, nurses and medical technicians we are going to make a prospective risk inventory. We are very curious whether the risks we are going to discover are acceptable and if not, whether adjustments can be made so that my idea can become reality', says Bernadette.
An improved prototype is the next step in the process. It is important to produce the 'Infuuts'. Bernadette: 'We won 5,000 euros with the Onco Care Challenge and hopefully that's an initial capital for the production of the first copies. We hope that there will be bike makers or companies who want to help us. The children who can use the infuuts often stay for a long time in the Princess Máxima Center. For the motor development it is very important that children with cancer, like healthy children, play and exercise as much as possible. And how much fun it is when kids are cycling around in the hallways or courtyard garden? We also think that cycling will be safer than it is now.

Family Constellations are a unique healing process that reveals the hidden dynamics in family systems. Since I began working with Family Constellations in 2002, I have had the opportunity to experience how the constellation process helps heal parental and ancestral entanglements that may be in the way of our true potential. My interest in facilitating is not just to help clients find a healthy and resourced place in their family system but to support them to manifest a whole and satisfying life.
Family Constellations, as a field of healing therapy, continues to evolve, but many of the core ideas developed by Bert Hellinger continue to remain the cornerstones of the work. Hellinger's observations of natural laws operating in family systems continue to be helpful to understanding the issues presented by clients. His powerful insight that each family system requires that all members be connected and remembered in a particular way remains true.
If someone in the system is not remembered correctly then younger members, out of love or the need to belong, can become "entangled" with their ancestors, particularly with those who have been excluded, forgotten or shunned or have experienced a difficult fate. In almost all Family Constellations these unconscious entanglements are behind the challenges experienced by our clients.
When we can uncover and resolve these hidden and unexpected dynamics operating within the family system, we can find a healthy and respectful place for all members of the family system that release the client's burden and suffering. This also provides the client with a new image of their healthy place in the family system.
Being a representative in Family Constellations has remained one of the most profound experiences of my life. I originally came to a constellations workshop for my own healing but the opportunity to be a representative gave me such amazing insight into human nature, my own inner life and my place in my own family system. Taking essential qualities of who or what I was representing, sensing thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations in my body and knowing what is true even with no prior knowledge of what has occurred historically has been an exhilarating and powerful experience each time.
One of the greatest gifts from Family Constellations is that they provide us with a renewed sense of who we are and how to move into our lives with dignity and grace. At the center of the process is an experience of genuine truth which can become a "felt sense" over time. When we connect this inner sense of truth with the world we inhabit, we can discern falsehood from truth and use that to navigate our lives, evolve into our best selves and create a good life.

This study measures the efficiency and productivity of breast and lung cancer health care provision in Europe to inform related policy discussions. The included countries' relative performance is measured against a best practice production frontier computed using distance functions where inputs are used to produce outputs.
The distance function can handle many inputs and many outputs simultaneously and is independent of unit of measurement. Price data is not needed. Input variables such as number of radiation units, number of oncologists, and oncology pharmaceuticals are used to produce survival and quality of life.
Publicly available data between 2005 and 2015 from Eurostat, OECD, WHO, and published sources are used to compute country specific efficiency and productivity results. Data reveals extensive differences in inputs and outputs and this is reflected in the performance measures. Significantly higher input use typically yields only a small increase in outputs, both across countries and over time.

Q: c# how to populate a complex object containing a list with sql I currently have an object model using Entity Framework that contains a complex object with a property that is a list. I store it in the DB with the second option proposed here: Representing a list in a SQL database
But to summarize:
Person()
{
  long Id;//primary key
  string Name;
  List<long> ResponsibleFor; //list of id
}

gets stored as the 2 following tables
Persons:
 Id,
 Name

Responsibilities:
 Id,
 PersonId,
 ResponsibleForId

Now I'm kind of stumped with how to repopulate the Person object. My Current approach is the following:
 from p in db.Persons
 join r in db.Responsibilities on p.Id equals r.PersonId
 where p.Id == IdImSearchingFor
 select new Person
 {
  Id = p.Id
  ResponsibileFor = ?
 }

And I'm stuck trying to repopulate that List property.
Any Suggestions?
Thanks!

A: You need to group the result of the join to get all people responsible for.
Try
var result = from p in db.Persons
             join r in db.Responsibilities on p.Id equals r.PersonId
             where p.Id == IdImSearchingFor
             group r.ResponsibleForId by p into g
             select new Person
             {
                 Id = g.Key.Id,
                 Name = g.Key.Name,
                 ResponsibleFor = g.ToList()
             };

A: Suppose you want to get the person Id 1 then..
from p in db.Persons
 join r in db.Responsibilities on p.Id equals r.PersonId
 where p.Id == 1
 select new Person
 {
  Id = p.Id
  ResponsibileFor = p.ReponsibleFor
}

A: Check this one out. I have tested it will normal classes and Lists and not with EF or any other ORM.
The following is the class structure I have understood
class Person
{
    public long Id;//primary key
    public string Name;
}

class Responsibility
{
    public long Id;//primary key
    public long PersonId;
    public long ResponsibleForId;
}

The following are the 2 test lists
List<Person> Persons = new List<Person>() { new Person() { Id = 1, Name = "Samar" } };
List<Responsibility> Responsibilities = new List<Responsibility>() { new Responsibility() { Id = 1, PersonId = 1, ResponsibleForId = 1 }, new Responsibility() { Id = 2, PersonId = 1, ResponsibleForId = 2 } };

The following is the query
var allPeople = from p in Persons
                join r in Responsibilities on p.Id equals r.PersonId into g
                where p.Id == 1
                select new
                {
                    Id = p.Id,
                    ReponsibleFor = g.Select(x => x.ResponsibleForId).ToList()
                };

Hope this is what you are looking for.

A: Although everyone's previous answers helped me (Thank you!), they weren't completely working. So I thought I'd add my solution here, which was to use a combination of joins, grouping, and nested selects.
from p in db.Persons
where p.Id == IdImSearchingFor
join r in db.Responsibilities on p.Id equals r.ParentId into pr
select new Person
{
    Id = p.Id,
    name = p.Name,
    ResponsibleFor = ( from a in pr
                       where a.ParentId == IdImSearchingFor
                       select new Person
                       {
                           Id = a.Id
                       }).ToList<Person>()
}

A: My suggestion would be to use a Lazy load pattern for getting your list and it would probably perform and scale better.  Using your example.
public class Person()
{
  public long Id { get; set; }
  public string Name { get; set;}
  private Lazy<List<long>> _responsibleFor;
  public List<long> ResponsibleFor
  {
    get { return _responsibleFor.Value; }
  }

  public void SetResponsibleFor(Func<long, List<long>> getResponsibleFor)
  {
    _responsibleFor = new Lazy<List<long>>( () => getResponsibleFor(Id) );
  }

  public Person():base() { }
  public Person(long id, string name)
  {
    Id = id;
    Name = name
  }

}

   // Implementation
   var p = new Person(1,"John Doe");
   p.SetResponsibleFor(GetResponsibleForPerson); //Pass a function/method which takes the long for input parameter and outputs List<long>

Agriculture in the Bahamas
Agricultural production in the Bahamas focuses on four main areas: crops, poultry, livestock, and dairy. Poultry, winter vegetables, and citrus fruits are the mainstay of the agricultural sector, which is concentrated in The Abacos. Exports consist mainly of grapefruits, limes, okra, papaya, pineapples, and avocado. These foods tend to grow quite well here (particularly the pineapples of Eleuthera which are fabulous!). Bananas, oranges, mangoes are also popular fruits. More than 5,000 acres of agricultural land in the Bahamas are used for citrus production. In 1993, about 14 million pounds of poultry meat was produced, valued at $15.3 million; egg production was estimated at 4.15 million dozen eggs, valued at $4.85 million; and agricultural exports were an estimated 18,794 tons. In addition to citrus fruits, exports included honeydew, cantaloupe, watermelon and squash.
Supposedly, to 'encourage' local agriculture (i.e. force consumers to buy local products against their will) heavy duties are laid on many imported goods that compete with inefficient, low quality, over-priced local products, or cheaper foreign goods are banned.
The Agricultural Manufactories Act of 1965 provides exemptions from customs duty on all machinery and material imported for the construction and improvement of agricultural factories. Tax-exemptions (as long as there are no strings attached) are a good thing and should be done for all business machinery, in all industries—not just politically popular ones.
Ninety percent of the agricultural land in The Bahamas is government-owned and falls under the auspices of the Ministry of Agriculture & Fisheries. The government has instituted a policy to utilize these lands to aid in the growth of the economy and foster less dependence on the tourism sector. The Ministry of Agriculture (Incorporation) Act of 1993 gives the Minister of Agriculture authority to hold, lease, and dispose of agricultural land, to enter into contracts, and to sue and be sued. The Minister does not have the power to sell agricultural land, but is authorized to lease land for periods up to two consecutive 21-year periods. Under this policy, the government has earmarked 36,148 prime acres of Crown Land for agricultural use, which is allocated as follows: 13,869 acres in Andros 11,737 acres in The Abacos 10,542 acres in Grand Bahama Island.
The Department of Agriculture is encouraging farmers to expand sweet potatoes, bananas, onion, Irish potatoes, and pigeon peas acreage through taking money from taxpayers and "subsidizing" these businesses (rather then let taxpayers spend the money on their own businesses) via cheap loans, etc.
The stated goal of livestock is to make each island self-sufficient in poultry and pork production. However, this drive for 'self-sufficiency' is not without its price—it results in more expensive products (since it costs more to grow locally then to import such products) and leads to an actual decrease in wealth, as capital resources are driven towards uneconomic uses, which would not be invested in without government coercion and handouts, i.e., it makes sense to import a banana for five cents a pound, then to grow it locally for a fifty cents a pound. If free-trade were the Bahamian policy, Bahamians would get five times as much wealth (i.e., bananas) per dollar, then they would then being forced to 'buy locally'.
A 1994 Census on Agriculture indicated that there are 1,800 farms in The Bahamas, including:
Bahama Palm Groves — leases 1,200 acres of land on an old Abaco sugar estate.
R.A. Hewitt & Sons of Ontario, Canada — grows citrus fruits (limes, tangelos, grapefruits, oranges and lemons) on 500 acres.
The Abaco Cooperative Society — allocated 1,000 acres for its members; each uses 25 acres.
Bahama Star — runs a 3,000+-acre citrus orchard in Abaco.
Bahamas Poultry Ltd in Grand Bahama Island, has 30 growing houses with capacities ranging up to 30,000 birds per house.
Bahamas Citrus Growers — exports 95% of their product to the US, Canada, Europe and the Far East. The company has 2,000 acres of mature citrus orchard.
Brookwood Farms Ltd. — has developed more than 1,000 acres of orchard on Grand Bahama Island, producing mainly Persian limes and avocados for export to Europe, Canada and the US. They exported 1,674 tons of produce in 1993.
Kendall Foods — operates papaya orchards on the island of Eleuthera.
Government policy is to encourage farmers in the northern Bahamas, especially The Abacos, Grand Bahama Island and northern Andros, to market their own products. Farms in these areas now represent more than two-thirds of all produce sold. In the south, where there is less rainfall, low population, poorer soil and underdeveloped infrastructure, farmers benefit from more Government support.
Agricultural Imports
A Disease Insect Surveillance Unit monitors the importation of fruit and vegetables into The Bahamas. All commercial importers of fresh produce, ornamentals, meat, milk, eggs, and poultry must obtain permission from that Department prior to importation. The fee is $2 per permit.
Areas of Responsibility for Ministry of Agriculture and Marine Resources
1) Department of Agriculture Agriculture: Food Production, Agricultural Marketing, Development of Demonstration & Training Farm, Horticulture, Botanical Gardens, Quality Control of Food and Beverages, Potters Cay Dock, Protection of Plants, Veterinary Services and Animal Diseases, Public Markets, Slaughter Houses, Agricultural Land
2) Department of Marine Resources: Fisheries, Natural History Specimens, Marine Conservation and Protection, Reefs and Blue Holes

The purpose of this study was to compare the actual duties of selected Western Kansas secondary school administrators with the duties that were advocated by selected authorities in education. This study was limited to secondary-school administrators in the forty-six Kansas counties west of the 98 deg 30' longitude. These counties were located in area five as established by the Kansas State Teachers Association in 1963. A questionnaire was developed after a review of the literature was made of the secondary- school administrator to identify the duties and functions that were necessary in order to administer a secondary-school adequately and effectively. A cover letter and the questionnaire were sent to the one hundred and sixty- three administrators in area five. Responses were received from one hundred and fourteen administrators. To determine the advocated duties of the Western Kansas secondary school administrator, the letter and questionnaire were also sent to ten selected faculty members at the six public Kansas colleges and universities. In addition, the proposals of noted authorities in the field of secondary-school administration were used. In the opinion of the experts canvassed, the most important administrative duty was selecting and rating the teaching staff. The administrators also listed this duty as most important. Also, it was apparent that the duties of least importance by the administrators and experts were conferences with salesmen and administration of the cafeteria. The experts agreed unanimously that class visitation and conferences with individuals was the most important supervisory duty. The administrators ranked this duty as second in importance. Supervision of school policies and laws was listed by the administrators as the most important supervisory duty. The experts also ranked this duty as important. The duties of least importance to the experts and administrators were the supervision of various activities and of the testing programs. Information in this study revealed that the most important professional duties ranked by the experts and administrators included professional reading and advanced education, and al so participation in faculty meetings. Special committee work, and Parent Teacher Association and National Education Association meetings were least significant to both studied groups. The experts rated the clerical duty, plan public-relations activities, as most important. However, the administrators ranked this duty as one of least importance. The experts and administrators saw the need in making plans for opening and closing the school. The administrators ranked this duty as most important, and the experts listed it second in importance. Planning for special events, and answering questionnaires and correspondence were the two least important clerical duties indicated by both the experts and administrators. It was cited by the experts and administrators that helping various groups with special problems and arranging school programs were the two most important extra-curricular duties. Selling tickets at various activities and coaching plays, debates, or orations were indicated as the two least important duties by both the experts and the administrators. Evidence provided by this study also indicated that the Western Kansas secondary-school administrators should spend approximately 40 per cent of their time in supervisory duties. Furthermore, it was found that the administrators were spending 24 per cent in these duties. It was also advocated by the experts that 29 percent of the administrator's time be spent in administrative duties. Thirty-three percent was allotted by the administrators for administrative duties. The professional, clerical, and extracurricular duties were ranked by the administrators, experts, and noted authors as least important.

If you're looking for an inexpensive, yet fully-functional way to stream digital media, you may want to consider using LibreELEC to create a Home Theater PC (HTPC). LibreELEC is a minimal, Linux-based operating system that's built specifically for use with the Raspberry Pi and other "single-board" HTPC systems.
Let's get started now, beginning with the basics about LibreELEC.
What Will I Need to Install LibreELEC?
LibreELEC (short for "Libre Embedded Linux Entertainment Center") is a fork of the popular "OpenELEC" open-source operating system. LibreELEC was first started in late 2016, when creative differences among OpenELEC developers caused them to split into two separate entities.
Just like OpenELEC, LibreELEC is a lightweight Linux-based OS that's built around the Kodi media player. It comes with Kodi pre-installed and is built to run Kodi smoothly and efficiently.
LibreELEC is optimized to be run on all flash-based hard drives. Examples of flash-based hard drives include USB flash drives, SSDs and SD cards.
With LibreELEC, it's easier than ever to set up a Kodi installation on your Raspberry Pi or on any other streaming device.
Here are the materials you'll need to install LibreELEC on your streaming device.
A compatible single-board PC. Options include the Raspberry Pi 1, 2, 3, or 0 and Odroid C2. Android boxes from WeTek (Core, Hub, Play, and Play 2) can also support a LibreELEC installation.
A Linux, Mac, or Windows-based PC for flash imaging and installation.
A high-speed SD card (recommended) or a flash drive (optional for Raspberry Pi installs).
An SD card reader (if using a computer without a built-in SD card reader).
That's it! Now, let's move on to the installation instructions.
Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the installation process.
Go to the LibreELEC downloads page and select the appropriate operating system, as seen in the below screenshot.
Source: AddonHQ. The LibreELEC homepage.
Download the utility and locate it in your Downloads folder. If you're on a Windows computer, simply double-click the .exe. The filename will be LibreELEC.USB-SD.Creator.Win32, or something similar. For Mac users, the download will be named LibreELEC.USB-SD.Creator.MacOS.DMG. Double-click the .dmg file, and drag it to the Applications folder to install it.
Open the LibreELEC USB-SD creator. You'll see the interface shown below.
Source: AddonHQ. The main UI of the LibreELEC USB-SD Creator.
Next, let's discuss how to create the proper LibreELEC image and burn it to your flash media of choice.
Select the version of LibreELEC you'll be installing. I'm using a Raspberry Pi 3, so I have selected the option labeled Raspberry Pi 2 and 3. The default download option will be the latest version of the LibreELEC software.
Source: AddonHQ. Select "Download", adjacent to "Select file" to begin downloading the latest LibreELEC image.
Select Download. Then, follow the on-screen instructions to select the desired download location for your disk image.
NOTE: If desired, you can download an older version of the LibreELEC software. Simply tick the Show all box, located above the LibreELEC version selector.
Your disk image file will begin downloading to your preferred location, as shown in the below screenshot.
Source: AddonHQ. The download in-progress.
When the download has completed, the disk image will be automatically selected. If you deselect your disk image by mistake, choose Select file and navigate to the location of your disk image. In my case, this is /Users/eric/Downloads/LibreELEC-RPi-2.arm-8.1.1.img.gz. However, the location of your disk image may differ depending on your operating system and your selected download location.
Source: AddonHQ. The selected flash media will be available in the drop-down menu here.
I'm using an SD card named ERIC'S SD, which is visible in the drop-down menu. Ensure you have the right drive selected.
NOTE: We recommend using an SD card over a USB drive, if possible. For Odroid and WeTek devices, you'll have to use an SD card, as these devices do not support USB booting. Raspberry Pi devices are able to use USB drives, but are natively designed to work more effectively with SD cards.
Select Write to begin the process of writing your disk image. The LibreELEC utility will erase your selected disk drive and install a fully-mountable, functional version of the LibreELEC OS.
NOTE: This will erase ALL DATA PRESENT on your flash drive, SSD or SD Card. We recommend using only a blank piece of flash media, or backing up all required files before writing your disk image.
The writing process may take several minutes, depending on the speed of your computer and your selected flash device. After it's complete, eject your flash device from your computer.
Installation steps vary depending on the streaming device.
Installation for LibreELEC on Raspberry Pi is quite simple. Here's what you'll need to do.
Press the power button. Your Raspberry Pi should automatically read the OS and begin installing LibreELEC. Installation and initial booting may take up to 5 minutes.
Run LibreELEC. Follow the onscreen prompts to complete installation.
That's it! You now have a fully functional Kodi installation on your Raspberry Pi!
Insert your SD card into the Odroid device.
Plug in your HDMI/WiFi module before plugging in the power cord.
Boot up the Odroid C2. The device will start, and show the LibreELEC logo for a few minutes while installation occurs.
The Odroid C2 will boot into Kodi automatically after installation completes. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete installation.
It's as easy as that. Enjoy your new Kodi installation!
WeTek Android Boxes can dual-boot LibreELEC and the default WeTek operating system. If you have an older WeTek Play device, you may need to run the WeUpdate application to enable dual booting. Here's how to install LibreELEC on WeTek Android boxes.
Power off the WeTek device. Insert your bootable SD card into the appropriate slot on your WeTek device.
Press and hold the "reset" button (located in a toothpick-sized hole on the side panel of the device).
Power the device on and continue holding the "reset" button for 7-8 seconds. At this point, LibreELEC installation will start.
After LibreELEC has been installed you can boot directly into LibreELEC by pressing the power button on your remote twice. That's it – you're good to go!
While the Kodi installation included with LibreELEC is not exactly the same as the desktop version, it works very similarly.
Here's a screenshot of the main LibreELEC menu.
Source: Kodi forums. The main menu of LibreELEC.
You can install third-party add-ons and official Kodi add-ons just like you would on the desktop Kodi application, so your choices are nearly limitless.
LibreELEC has many good features but it's not as a flexible as an ordinary operating system.
Extremely easy to use – As you can see from our installation and setup guide, it's incredibly easy to get started using LibreELEC. Unlike some Linux-based distributions, it's pretty much impossible to install LibreELEC incorrectly. Because minimal configuration and setup are required to get started, just about anyone can use LibreELEC.
Kodi comes pre-installed – LibreELEC comes with a specialized, updated version of Kodi pre-installed.
Incredibly fast and lightweight – The LibreELEC OS is as barebones as possible. Essentially every function that's not necessary for running Kodi has been trimmed away.
Can't (easily) be used for anything but Kodi – The lightweight design of LibreELEC is a bit of a double-edged sword. Because LibreELEC contains nothing but what's required for running Kodi, it's extremely limited in terms of customization. If you just need a Kodi HTPC and nothing else, you probably won't care. But if you want to do more than play videos, you may not like LibreELEC.
There are two main alternatives to LibreELEC: OpenELEC and OSMC.
OpenELEC is the original project that LibreELEC was "forked" off from. Just like LibreELEC, OpenELEC is an extremely lightweight Linux distribution designed to run Kodi quickly and efficiently.
Before LibreELEC was released, OpenELEC was the "gold standard" for single-board HTPCs. Today, however, LibreELEC is much more popular than the original OpenELEC OS.
The primary reason for this is simple – OpenELEC does not have as many active developers, and the community is shrinking because of that.
This means that updates are few and far between. LibreELEC developers typically put out updates right after major Kodi releases come out.
For example, LibreELEC was constantly being updated with Alpha and Beta versions of Kodi 17 Krypton during development, and they also released a full version of LibreElec that supported Kodi 17 Krypton less than two weeks after it was officially released.
In contrast, it took OpenElec until April 30 to release a full version that supported Kodi 17 Krypton. However, even though the OpenELEC team takes longer to push out updates, OpenELEC still works just fine. OpenELEC's features are nearly identical to LibreELEC's and both operating systems are equally easy to use.
Another key benefit that LibreELEC has is that LibreELEC has its own installer. You have to download the OpenELEC image yourself an use a 3rd party tool to install it.
If you're looking for a lightweight OS that's Kodi focused but provides you with more customizability and functionality, you may be interested in OSMC: The Open Source Media Center.
OSMC is a Debian-based Linux distro that is built to work with Kodi. Like LibreELEC and OpenELEC, OSMC boots directly into Kodi. However, OSMC has more Linux features compared to LibreElec and OpenElec. With OSMC, you can easily set up a Plex server, a web server, and more. If you're interested in a more fully-featured HTPC, OSMC is a great choice.
Unfortunately, OSMC only works with Raspberry Pi devices. If you're using a WeTek box or an Odroid C2, you won't be able to use OSMC. Still, OSMC is a good alternative to LibreElec for cord-cutters who are familiar with Linux and are interested in customizing their HTPC.


Trading CFDs must be made easy by the CFD providers in order to attract customers. The trading cost must also not be too high if a trader wants its customers to have multiple transactions over time. Usually, most CFD providers have a monthly flat fee that includes technical charts, news articles and provision for your orders and an application that displays in real time the open and close prices.
A reputed CFD provider will certainly offer a trading platform that is very fast, easy to use and offers you the possibility to make rapid trading. Having such a platform is in their interest, since they win more customers with a well built CFD trading platform. Most trading platforms are made after receiving feedback from their customers. This way customer can control all his CFD trades easier and better, and thus being one step ahead of the market. In this type of trading each second is very important thus, a CFD trading platform must be very fast, reliable and accurate and support fast applications.
Speed – a good CFD trading system must provide you the option to make trades using just a few mouse clicks.
Power – the system must be stable and yet powerful and must have 24/7 support and zero downtime.
Control – all systems must give you the control of the trades either directly, or via specialized software. Also, a trading system must be something reliable and it must give you the option to customize the setup based on your needs.
Flexibility – the system you will use must be able to adapt to different markets, depending on the place you want to trade. These places can range from Good for Day, OCOs, Good Till Canceled to If-Done and others. This flexibility and variety will help any customer and this is exactly what anyone wants since this way they will have more time planning their trades. They must also rely that their application will not fail just when they are close to finish a deal. A good flexible CFD trading platform will help the trader use more types of order and thus take advantage of CFDs movements.
These are the main basic parameters, and every trading platform should incorporate them, and even more if a CFD provider wants to attract more customers.
24 hour trades on different markets across the world.
Ease of use, complete functionality and easy access to all markets.
Customizable interface – this way a trader can use the same interface on different markets – indices, shares, commodities, Forex, etc.
All financial markets are flexible and adapt to new changes. In the past only the rich people were able to make CFDs trades, but now, with the advance of technology and Internet almost anyone can make CFDs transactions.

Q: Populating MongoDB with sample documents including current datetime I'm trying to populate my MongoDB with sample data to run a performance test. My documents are meant to have a datetime field named last_update which I believe is self describing.
In order to have conclusive results I need a lot of documents (starting from 1M going to 1G). That's why I decided to use a tool like mongoimport to populate my collection.
Here's a line from my json file that I'm feeding to mongoimport:
{ "counter" : 0, "last_update" : new Date() }

I'm expecting each document to have the current datetime as it is saved into collection. But mongoimport exits with an error:
exception:BSON representation of supplied JSON is too large: code FailedToParse: FailedToParse: Expecting '}' or ',': offset:42

It seems mongoimport has a problem with new Date() statement. So my question is how can I add bulk number of documents into a collection with a field set to current time?

A: "The mongoimport tool provides a route to import content from a JSON, CSV, or TSV export created by mongoexport, or potentially, another third-party export tool." Hence i think u cannot use new Date(); in the json file. Try to insert data by using a javascript file.
db.collection.insert({ "counter" : 0, "last_update" : new Date() });

then use command 127.0.0.1/db new.js
Otherwise u should give the datestring in the json to insert docs using mongoimport


Previously shared by Boston College, Lauren Prozeller, BC MBA '15, gives her take on the MBA program and how it helped her to grow as a person.
With a degree in political science and history, Lauren lacked the business knowledge needed to advance in her marketing career. After five years working in a variety of marketing jobs, Lauren felt that she lacked a competitive edge on her peers and would need a business degree to move up in her career.
There are so many programs out there, but when Lauren was looking into the details of the different MBA options, she saw that BC would be the right fit for her.
Boston College requires students to partipicate in 20 hours of community service to show a sense of social responsibility, an attractive quality of their program for Lauren. She said, "BC attracts people who want to have a positive impact, whether it's in their communities or in business."

During her MBA program, Lauren earned an internship with Liberty Mutual. There she worked as a Corportate Development Program Summer Associate. She was able to secure this position with the help of BC's Career Strategies Office.
At the end of her internship, Lauren was offered a fulltime position with Liberty Mutual, where she now works in the Corporate Development Program.

Now some products are digital (used within App)after buying them user able to download pdf or watch video.
I was using Braintree payment gateway for payment. I submitted my app but apple rejected it mentioning implementation of IN App Purchase as it involves digital goods.
Now I have outlaid a solution but not sure wether it is feasible or not &  is it in accordance with apple review guidelines
As my app has dynamic product & prices
So let's suppose I have to pay an amount of $147
I have created 5 Consumable IAP of price $100, $40, $5, $2, $10 in itunes connect
Now At Payment I request for all  consumable IAP's which I have configured  & I shows user single options of paying $147 and make request for payment of IAP valued ($100,$40,$5,$2) totalling $147 at once.
My constraint is that I want only a single option for user to purchase dynamic price & creating wallet balance is not applicable in my case.
So please help me as I want make sure that my solution is in accordance with apple guidelines & also programmatically feasible before implementation. Any suggestion will be Great. Thank in advance!!


Vegan egg rolls filled with taco tofu, black beans, corn and cilantro. With an avocado buttermilk ranch dip!
Heat the olive oil in a non stick pan on medium high.
Squeeze the half block of tofu over the sink, squeezing as much liquid out as you can. It is okay if it starts to crumble, you will be crumbling it anyways.
Next, crumble the tofu into the non stick pan. Break up any large pieces with a wooden spoon. Press the crumbled tofu into the pan and saute, reducing heat as needed for a few minutes, until the tofu is starting to brown, then toss and press back into the pan. Repeat until all of the tofu is light brown.


There is so much to admire about Apple. They make superb, beautiful products. Their amazing comeback story is unparalleled in corporate history. Steve Jobs has become something akin to a modern-day patron saint of the tech industry. Tim Cook is, rightly, enormously respected.
You are only permitted to download and install software that has been officially approved by Apple onto your iOS device. This isn't true of OS X, yet, but that's clearly only because user control is grandfathered in … and arguably being slowly boiled like the proverbial frog.
Let me hasten to admit that this seems like no bad thing for the end user. It acts as a bulwark against malware. And Apple has been admirably pro-privacy, especially of late, despite the skepticism of industry analysts.
All the same, though, this is short-term gain that risks long-term pain. Apple, for all their glory and their genius, is the apotheosis of a philosophy of technology which is fundamentally different from mine: technology as a centrally controlled hegemony unsullied by tinkerers who want to go outside of their sandbox, a walled garden of an ecosystem that is only permitted to evolve when Cupertino initiates the evolution. Only Apple is allowed to think outside the box in which its users live.
It's a safe, clean, disinfected, and aesthetically beautiful box; but it comes with serious consequences, some hypothetical, some very real. Conflicts of interest inevitably arise between Apple's interest and its users'. Consider Apple's complex, conflicted relationship with Bitcoin apps … and the implicit threat Bitcoin poses to Apple's inexorable demand for a 30% cut of all in-app purchases. You don't have to be a Bitcoin believer to see that as a potential innovation roadblock.
More worryingly, governments around the world are raising their voices with increasing fury, demanding that companies rat out their users' privacy to governments. Apple, to their credit, is strongly resisting. But at the same time, their hegemonic model would make them the perfect complement to any surveillance state.
Heck, despite my criticisms, I trust today's Apple not to abuse that power. But I would vastly prefer that they didn't have it at all — or that they at least gave users the option to sever the tether to Cupertino. "Trust, but verify," as Ronald Reagan once said.
What could go wrong? Well, let's get dystopically speculative for a moment. Can you remember some of the most hyperbolic overreactions to the fall of the World Trade Center, and how they were welcomed by large swathes of the American public? Can you imagine a future in which, following a similar tragedy, Apple rolls over and becomes a de facto arm of surveillance states? I sure can — and Apple's centralized-command-and-control ecosystem would make it worryingly easy to turn every iOS device into an eye and ear of the panopticon, more or less overnight.
More generally, Apple's runaway success sets a tone for the rest of the industry, and breeds cultures of jealous secrecy, centralized control, and tools/software that may only be used in carefully circumscribed ways. Technology concentrates power. Again, this may look like a good thing in the short run, especially when that concentration of power seems to represent both beauty and security — but there's a huge implicit risk taken when we simply accept that as the status quo.
You can aim similar criticisms at Android, too, but they would miss the mark. Love it or hate it, Android is not near as centralized as iOS, and Google is not nearly as controlling as Apple. It's open-source, and major organizations can–and do–fork it to create their own independent versions. Apple fights an ongoing war with iOS jailbreakers, claiming that their work is "potentially catastrophic"; Google makes it especially easy to root Nexus devices.
I want to believe in a world where individuals, rather than companies, own their own data, maintain control over their own online existence, and choose who (if anyone) is allowed to advertise to them. I realize that sounds hopelessly idealistic. It is, today. But I believe such a decentralized world is (slowly) becoming increasingly plausible–and I cannot help but note that its tenets are, fundamentally, the polar opposites of Apple's entire software philosophy.
It may seem silly to criticize a fantastic company that makes superb products and delights its users on the basis of an abstract philosophical dispute. But I have a sneaking suspicion that over the next year this dispute will grow more and more concrete. Maybe, as this contrast heightens, Apple will see the light; maybe instead of fighting jailbreakers, they will offer jailbreaking and sideloading as an option for power users out of the box, just as Android does. That alone would be a huge seismic shift.
But I'm not holding my breath. And until and unless that happens, I find it hard to recommend the iOS ecosystem in good conscience, despite its power and beauty, because Apple refuses to return any of the trust it demands from its users.


Wikipedia:Kannada Support, Enabling Kannada on your desktop.
Enabling Kannada on your desktop. Here's a comprehensive document to help you through enabling Kannada on your desktop on your favourite Operating System. Browse through the index and read the section relevant to your Operating System.
Note: Feel free to volunteer and correct broken links or any erroneous information if present, in this document – with proper reason stated for the correction on the talk page if the correction is non-trivial.
೧ Who should read this?
೩.೨ Why does Kannada Wikipedia use Unicode?
If you are unable to view or edit the Kannada text on this Wikipedia, this page is for you. This page is also recommended for users who can view or edit but are not familiar with editing documents in Kannada using Unicode. Despite the title of the document, the instructions will apply to all sites and content which use Unicode.
If you have further questions or distribution specific issues for which the solutions are not listed below, you can post onto the discussion forums at . But please make sure you read this document properly before submitting support requests there.
While most new versions of Windows Operating Systems and Linux Distributions have basic support for viewing and editing Kannada in Unicode, they still have some quirks or need some configuration to get it working.
Start > Settings > Control Panel > Regional Options.
In the General tab, set all the languages you may want to display, the more you set, the more you will be able to process multilingual data through all your applications, including your browser. This adds fonts as well as system support for these languages.
Out of the Box support for viewing pages in Kannada thanks to the Arial Unicode MS font.
Besides the Arial Unicode MS font, Windows XP also comes with Tunga which gets installed if you follow the steps detailed in the next section (Input). You can also install any font from here.
Right click on the Baraha Direct icon on the status bar, select the 'Unicode' option, choose Kannada for Itrans or Baraha like input, KGP for Nudi like Input.
NOTE: Apparently, the Indic IME's are supposed to work only on Microsoft Word and doesn't work well on other applications. Hence, the instructions for Phonetic IME here won't be useful unless you are using this input with MS Office. The Inscript keymap however will work out of the box without downloading anything. Use the other two solutions listed below for phonetic keymaps.
Download Indic Input IME from http://www.bhashaindia.com/downloads/downloads.aspx?lang=en which contains Nudi and Baraha like phonetic layouts for Windows XP. Windows XP, by default comes with the non-phonetic Layout. If you like Inscript, you can just follow the next step.
MS IE, Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla and variants and Opera all display Kannada by Default without any modification and input if above step is carried out.
Although almost all Linux Distributions have support for Kannada, browsing Kannada Unicode websites especially using the default Mozilla or its variants like Firefox, Galeon or Epiphany does not work.
Of all distributions, Mandrakelinux has the best support for Kannada out of the box. It includes Sampige font, Kannada locale, Inscript layout and KDE with Kannada Support. If you are using Mandrakelinux, most of these steps are optional.
Please refer this weblog entry.
Get any Kannada open type from SALRC page or one from Kannada @sf.net.
You will need to restart an application after installing the font to see the newly installed font in that application.
Using Sampige font (that comes by default as of now with some of the Linux distributions) might not render Kannada properly. It is recommended that the users install either Kedage Font from brahmi project or Mallige from the same place (and remove all other Kannada Unicode fonts).
The package called ttf-free-fonts, if installed renders Kannada incorrectly on few distributions. Remove the ttf-free-fonts and restart Mozilla.
You can also install fonts from the repositories on few distributions (like Debian, Ubuntu) – by installing ttf-kannada-fonts via apt-get.
The package installs either Sampige font or Kedage font depending on the version of the package you've installed (the latest versions have Kedage and Mallige in it).
Download Nudi layout (phonetic), untar(tar zxvf nudi.tar.gz) and follow the instructions that come with it to install and use it.
The m17n – SCIM framework gives standardized (UTF-8) Kannada editing capabilities on standard keyboards.
m17n library is an opensource initiative for realizing multilingualization in Linux/Unix Platforms. The library serves as a backend for the Smart Common Input Method (SCIM) Project. SCIM provides a neat way of switching between Kannada and English keys.
Hence, to achieve full Kannada editing capabilities on your linux system this way, you should have both the m17n backend and the SCIM frontend.
Install both the libraries and databases.
3. Do the same for the database.
(cd to source,'./configure', 'make' and 'make install') or rpm -ivh 'filename.rpm' if you downloaded the rpm.
Install the m17n-SCIM in a similar fashion.
Some users have encountered trouble in finding the already installed SCIM package when they use './configure'.
To correct this problem, please follow these guidlines.
1. To make sure that you have scim, in the terminal, try whereis scim.
Once pkgconfig is able to find scim, installation should proceed smoothly.
Alternatively, you can invoke scim-setup by typing scim-setup in the terminal.
Go to the IME-engine-->Global Setup option to see the Kannada keyboard listed.
Go to Kannada, expand the tree and you see the m17n kan-itrans option and click edit hot-keys.
Choose a convineint hotkey for changing the keyboard to Kannada.
Go to Front end --> Global Hotkeys. Choose another hotkey to invoke this setup utility.
Go to Panel--> GTK and select all options you want to make the SCIM utility easily accesible.
Now you are all set to type in Kannada!!!. Go to any UTF-8 enabled editor or IM (gedit, gaim work!) and select the m17n kan itrans Keyboard in Kannada in the SCIM utility (which should be running on the desktop panel) and start typing Kannada! If you any further doubts and questions, please visit http://kannada.sourceforge.net/support and post your queries.
IIIMF is an multi-platform input method framework. IIMF comes with Nudi and Inscript layouts for Kannada. But be warned, it is very unstable. The IIIMF howto at Indlinux provides more information and step by step instructions on installation and usage.
ISIS is an easy-to-use system for computation using Indian scripts, developed by Gautam Sengupta of the Center for Applied Linguistics & Translation Studies, University of Hyderabad. ISIS binaries can be downloaded from here.
Inscript layout is easy to setup. It is readily available in most of the distributions. Instuctions to enable the layout vary depending on your desktop environment or distribution.
On Mandrakelinux the preferred way to enable the inscript layout keyboard is trough the Mandrakelinux control center -> keyboard, choose the Kannada keyboard, and the key combination to switch between US and Kannada layouts; that will work for all desktop and WM.
On the keyboard indicator, when you see Kan you will be typing in Kannada.
Assign a shortcut to switching between US and Kannada keyboard layouts.
On the keyboard indicator, when you see tel you will typing in Kannada.
When the Keyboard Layout Swither shows Kannada, we will able to type in Kannada. You can press and Left alt and Left Shift to switch between the layouts.
You should now see Keyboard Layout Switcher in the notification area. You can switch keyboard layouts by clicking on the Keyboard Layout Switcher or by using the keyboard shortcut you have chosen.
The version of Konqueror that comes with KDE 3.2 or above or if you are using Konqueror with QT 3.2 or above, you will get Kannada Display and Input in Unicode, provided you have followed the above steps.
By default, Mozilla products on Fedora Core 3 & Ubuntu come with indic language support. All you need to do is put the following statements in your Mozilla/FireFox/Thunderbird executable (Ex: in /usr/bin/firefox ) under #Variables or your ~/.bashrc file.
Alternatively, you can download Mozilla Binaries with Indic (including Kannada) support from http://www.indlinux.org/wiki/index.php/TamingTheDragon The TamingtheDragon page also has instructions on enabling Indic (including Kannada) support if you want to build from source.
Free: Wikipedia user Nicholas Shanks has modified the Kedage font to run on Mac OS X, and created an INSCRIPT‐based keyboard layout. Visit his website's project page to download them.
Commercial: A company called XenoType Technologies has been selling a Kannada language kit for several years. It includes one font, with more in development, and comes with two keyboard layouts, one QWERTY‐like and one based on INSCRIPT.
Another alternative (untested) is to install the X11 server and the instructions in the Linux section should work for you.
Unicode is an universal character set which defines code points for each character in almost every script in the world including Kannada. It is an internationally accepted standard published by the Unicode Consortium Unicode Consortium and supported in most Operating Systems. The Karnataka Government is representing for Kannada on the Unicode Consortium through Ministry of Information and Technology, Govt of India.
Why does Kannada Wikipedia use Unicode?
Software to view and edit comes either with the Operating System or is freely available.
It is extremely easy to translate the wikipedia's interface.
See discussion on Unicode usage in Wikipedia.
Baraha – a free text editor for Many Indian languages including Kannada and Hindi with Unicode support.
EMACS – a free text editor for UNIX/Linux with Kannada and Hindi support.

I was surfing through facebook this morning and I saw a video shared by my bro osquare88. And I saw this oyinbo singing tiwa savage's standing ovation. With a lovely face and a beautiful voice. She tried also with the olamide's part. Even I don't even know the lyrics to the song.
I was so impressed and I decided to go through her Facebook page. There I found out she's from Finland and she has a single called fall in love.
Also she says her brand of music is afro beat because she loves it a lot. She has some videos from korede bello's romantic to yemi alade's Johnny. A whole lots of them.
I'm so proud to be a Nigerian and I love the fact someone else appreciates our country and our brand of music. I just hope our music industry will keepgetting better and they keep giving us good music.
God bless Nigeria and God bless her.
Show the lady some love. This is her Facebook page. Let's appreciate her for appreciating us.
The Facebook link for standing ovation.

Yet this is news because one woman from Finland is listening to tiwa savage.
You guys should start developing your self-pride and ego. I'm not being racist as I really love Africa but this type of attitude is what makes the Caucasians(the whites) race and stereotype you guys. Brace up..

A prearranged agreement on the transfer of care must be made by the professional providers who share the global surgical package.
The date(s) of service must correspond to the date(s) the specific care was initiated.
When a provider assumes postoperative care, Modifier 55 is appended to the surgical procedure code and reported only after the first postoperative visit is provided.
The date of the surgery and the date of the follow-up care must be reported on the claim form or electronic equivalent.
Modifier 56 should only be reported with the surgical procedure code if a preoperative service is actually performed.
When a procedure code is appropriately reported with Modifier 54, 55, or 56, the Company applies the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Data Base (MPFSDB) assigned percentage for the component (preoperative, intraoperative [surgical care], postoperative) performed and reported by a professional provider.
Refer to the Coding Table in this policy for a link to Medicare's Physician Fee Schedule Search page to obtain the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) procedure codes and the applicable global surgical component percentages.
An individual provider performs all three components of the global surgical package (ie, pre-, intra-, and postoperative services). The global surgical package must not be divided into and reported by its component parts.
The surgical procedure code does not carry a 10-day (minor surgery) or 90-day (major surgery) global surgical period as assigned by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
The Company may conduct reviews and audits of services to our members, regardless of the participation status of the provider. All documentation is to be available to the Company upon request. Failure to produce the requested information may result in a denial for the service. Claims submitted with Modifier 54, 55, or 56 are subject to post-payment clinical review and potential retractions for inappropriate use may be completed.
Multiple surgical guidelines may apply to procedure codes that are reported with Modifier 54, 55, or 56.
Modifier 54 represents the surgical care component of a global surgical package. It is reported by the surgeon when another professional provider provides preoperative and/or postoperative care.
Modifier 55 represents the postoperative management component of a global surgical package, when performed by a professional provider other than the surgeon.
Modifier 56 represents the preoperative evaluation component of a global surgical package, when performed by a professional provider other than the surgeon.
