Recently, there continues to be lots of ballyhoo about how awful it's for kids to be always playing with games that are online. It has been mentioned that kids nowadays who friv 2 are withdrawing from social experience of the rest of the equals. It has additionally been said that their physical activity is taken away from by playing with games online. Yet another point that has been mentioned implies in playing games online by participating that kids are studying less.
There will also be gains children may achieve by participating in on-line games, although there is some element of reality to each of those ideas. Even though children might not be face to face with other kids their own age, they're socializing through the digital talks that accompany many games. Also they are being exposed to children from different civilizations, in addition to all different types of children that they may not have a chance to interact with in their environment that was current. Youngsters enjoying with these internet-games are studying to get alongside different sorts of people and learn about different cultures, within an enjoyable environment. They're also understanding to give-and-take when they perform the games, because often when playing with the others, they need to wait their turn to fight with an adversary or count on another participant to aid them ruin their opponent.
The next level about physical activity might be truer. It is not false that youngsters may possibly spend additional time sitting in front of their computer than in playing street handbags, as youngsters in the earlier I did so. But you will find games away there that are now considering this into consideration, like the bodily active games of the WII program. You also ought to consider though, that playing internet games raises your child's palm-eye co ordination, so friv 2 games is really teaching them an art that's similar to enjoying with hockey or basketball, in a mo Re real life where hands-eye coordination may be convenient as a job-seeking skill.
The point indicated was that kids are learning by learning time in just doing offers and sitting in front of their pc playing games, that they're burning up their reading. When you consider that as a very youngster, the best way to teach new things to them is to make the learning pleasure. Thus the web games creates a fun environment to get a child to understand. Maybe not all the games are eliminating and fights. As mentioned, the children learn a lot about palm-eye coordination. Additionally they learn to reveal and t-AKE turns, in working with the others in additional words patience.
The net is a tool that may simply take kids in to their future and a fantastic studying tool. A kid that plays online games should learn how to use the web, which is a necessary skill to best in today's high-tech job globe. Also, a lot of investigation is not unnecessary for a number of the games. And war games for example, some of the games, teach a little background and military strategy. All of these add into a kid's intellectual learning abilities.
It is constantly up to some parent how much time they allow their children to spend playing with online games. It's not bad to balance their match time with other tasks, but enjoying games that are online does have its benefits too.

Great Walking Safari Ngorongoro Highlands 7 Days is a tour will takes you to visit and explore Ngorongoro highlands with a Crater game drives. On great walking, you will have 3 nights in the highlands of Ngorongoro conservation area at the special camp sites and the other three nights outside conservation boundary at the base of Oldonyo Lengai Volcano Mountain and at Lake Natron. All the camp sites will be fixed with comfortable canvas Tents, while donkeys are included in the number of the crew to help carrying the stuff, this is very interesting.
This 7-day trekking tour takes you to the diverse landscapes of the Ngorongoro Crater Highlands – Ngorongoro,Olmoti and Empakai. The trek will give you , above all, the greatest sceneries on earth you will never imagine they exist.
It is such a breathtaking hiking through the wide grass and mountainous countryside as well as thick mountain forest and the volcanic stamped savannah landscape of the Rift Valley. Next to the unique nature and animal sightings, this trek allows a deep insight into the daily routines of the Maasai.
Depart form Arusha at 9 am. Drive to Ngorongoro Conservation area for an afternoon game drive. It will be a perfect timing for our exquisite lunch. Thereafter proceed to Ngorongoro crater for a half a day afternoon drive. The crater hosts Africa's most abundant wildlife, amazing panoramic views as we descend the crater and the Big Four. Late in the afternoon we drive to Nainokanoka village for camping before dinner and overnight. A walk around the Olmoti crater rim having a magnificent view of the Olmoti Craters's floor a shallow and covered with tussocks of grass. Besides the Maasai and their livestock you can sometimes see eland, buffalo and reedbuck. We can also visit the Munge waterfalls formed from the Munge River originated from the waters of the Crater walls, crossing the caldera and plummets down over cliffs, falling some hundreds of metres into the steep-sided ravine below.
DAY 2 Walk to Kamnana Village.
Walk through the Embulimbuli Depression a shallow, grassy basin formed where the slopes of Olmoti, Empakaai, Lolmalasin and Losirua volcanoes join with the outer rim of Ngorongoro.
After breakfast we walk through the Embulimbuli Depression a shallow, grassy basin formed where the slopes of Olmoti, Empakaai, Lolmalasin and Losirua volcanoes join with the outer rim of Ngorongoro. The trails pass through forests and grasslands. Like the similar Malanja depression to the west, it probably collects and provides a sink for a good deal of water that appears lower down at the foot of the mountains. Following the cattle trails to Kamnana village where we will overnight and have dinner.
The caldera is about 6 km wide and nearly half of its floor is covered by a lake. The water in the lake is alkaline and the depth of the lake is about 85m, unusually deep for soda lakes in East Africa. The steep walls of the caldera, clothed in forest.Following the path through the open grassland, bushland area and forests gradually ascending the Empakaai crater rim, before descending in to the crater floor.
At the rim you have a fantastic view in the craters' green paradise. The caldera is about 6 km wide and nearly half of its floor is covered by a lake. The water in the lake is alkaline and the depth of the lake is about 85m, unusually deep for soda lakes in East Africa. The steep walls of the caldera, clothed in forest, rise in some places to almost 300m above the floor. The views along the trail downwards are spectacular at every point. All along you can enjoy the changing views of Empakaai itself.
In addition, from the northern and eastern side you can look out to the dramatic cone of the still active volcano, Oldoinyo Lengai. If the day is clear, you can look beyond Lengai to the Great Rift Valley and Lake Natron. Sometimes you can even see the distant snows of Kilimanjaro far on the eastern side of the Valley.
The evening is spent relaxing or visiting the village school and also interacting with the friendly local Maasai people. After breakfast we depart for Naiyobi maasai village circling the crater rim, descending on the North western side.The trails leads to Naiyobi Maasai Village which we can arrive late noon. The evening is spent relaxing or visiting the village school and also interacting with the friendly local Maasai people. Overnight camp at the Acacia trees forest near the village.
Early morning we leave before the sun gets too hot, following the winding path across bare volcanic rocks and dusty lava soil, crossing Ngaresero river rounding the north-western floor of the active Mt. Lengai to the nearby village.
Camp is set near the river and a bath here is very refreshing. Early in the morning (between 3.00 a.m. and 4.00 a.m.) your will be transferred to the foot of »the Mountain of God«, Ol Doinyo Lengai mountain, to start the trek. It is the only active volcano in East Africa with the most current eruption in 2007. It is one of the few volcanoes in the world to omit Sodium carbonate and potassium, whose run off accounts for the extremely alkaline and corrosive swill of neighbouring Lake Natron. For photographers, the perfectly conical shape is delightful to see, especially if you can get Maasai cattle herders in the foreground. The weird perilous sight of magma flows bubbling at 510 degrees Celsius on top leave the tourists astonished.
After breakfast drive with picnic lunches to Lake Natron.
Expect to see vast shallow soda lake and a white carpet of soda and salt crystals cracked in to a polygonal patchwork. Evidently seen are the built flamingo nests resembling miniature volcanoes. It is a bizarrely beautiful breeding ground and home to thousands of Flamingos feeding on the blue algae. Much to see are wildlife like Zebra, wildebeest, gazelle, ostrich, fringed eared Oryx, lesser kudu, gerenuk and golden jackal. You may also be amazed too see volcanic implosion crater, ravines containing nesting sites for Ruppels griffon vultures and several waterfalls. Swimming is also possible and a visit to Maasai bomas a walk up the escarpment the best way to end a perfect day. After lunch drive back to Arusha.
– Extras at the lodges i.e. drinks, telephone, laundry, Internet etc.

Ten Virtual Sex Games that Should Be Adapted to the Oculus Rift
by Alexxx October 13, 2013
With all the virtual sex games currently on the market, there are some that we think would be ideal for a crossover to the Oculus Rift. From animated 3D porn games, to realistic solo girl action, even spin offs of popular computer based RPGs, there is a virtual sex game out there for everyone. Some would take the transfer to a head mounted display better than others, though. A few need some slight improvements, while others are ready to go as they are. Here are our picks for the ten virtual sex games that should be adapted to the Oculus Rift! Nemo's Whores – A true "fantasy" style 3D sex game, you play the role of Nemo, who gets to fuck the members of his submarine crew. Not only is there a selection of hot animated women to choose from, there's also a shemale thrown in for an added bonus. This Windows based game is known for its superior graphics, sound effects and background music. The pirate theme is also not overly done in the 3D animation world, unlike other fantasy based scenarios. We think a transition to the Oculus Rift would be an easy one! XStory Player – This Windows based 3D sex game comes at the cheap and cheerful price of only $9. For that, you get two story play modes plus four fast play modes that are unlocked when the missions are completed. The higher quality graphics on this 3D porn game make it ideal for an Oculus Rift crossover, although we'd love to see a few more modes included in any upgraded editions!
Juliet Sex Session – This dirty little whore wants to lap up every ounce of cum in this 3D sex game for the Mac and PC. Pretty much a dirty form of "choose your own adventure", you can perform almost any sex act on Julie, as well as enhance her body to get it just the way you like it. The perfect little animated girlfriend who has the sex dive of a minx! This game would be great changed up to a "point of view" style porn on the Oculus Rift. Saboom – This web based live action sex simulation game lets you pick out which girl you want to fuck and how you want to fuck her. Using live models rather than animation, Saboom is great for the guy who wants to look down at a pair of real eyes as their cock is getting sucked. Almost every sex style is covered in this game, so your particular favorite position will be ready to roll. One enhancement we'd like to see on Saboom for the Oculus Rift would be the ability to turn your head and see other couples getting it on. Bonecraft – A great game for the Minecraft lover who is looking something X-rated, Bonecraft is a Windows based adult game that combines the hand to hand combat of most fantasy style third person shooters with a whole lot of fucking. This isn't a stand-alone sex game, more like an adult fighting game with some sex thrown in. One of the major complaints about this game is that the controls are hard to master, which we think could be solved with the directionality of the Oculus Rift. My Plaything, Silvia Saint – The virtual sex version of a solo girl porn site, in this interactive DVD you get to map out all the nasty things you want to do with your porn star, Silvia Saint. The menu style setup makes it easy to get right to the action you're looking for, rather than having to play through a storyline. Another non-animated adult sex game that could do with a few upgrades before crossing over to the Oculus Rift. Nightstud 2 – Ready to fuck your way to the top? The end goal of Nightstud 2 is to fuck as many women in as many various situations as you possibly can. You're given a "to do" list, some cash, and a raging hard on to complete your mission. This game is much more "realistic" than your usual fuck fest virtual reality game. You will need to "woo" your date with wine and sex toys, and even toss on a condom if she asks. We think the pick-up scenarios at the clubs would be great to see through the Oculus Rift 's eyes.
3D Lesbian – If you prefer your porn cock-free, this 3D animated sex game for Windows is the porn game you're looking for. This game isn't just for the guys – it's for anyone who enjoys watching some girl on girl virtual action. This is another "3rd person" game where you're looking in on the action. If this game does indeed come out for the Oculus Rift, we're hoping that there's a few point of view options. Would be quite cool looking down at a girl eating out "your" pussy when you're usually looking down at a cock! Virtual Hottie 2 – Are you into the character creation aspect of virtual sex games? Virtual Hottie 2 is the only one on the market that allows you to alter your lover right down to their eye color! You've also got a great selection of sexual features including sex toys, outfits, environments and even the sexuality of your partners. This is certainly made for those who are as turned on about making your ideal virtual lover as you are fucking them. We can't think of too many changes that this animated virtual sex program will need when swapping over to a HMD. Pocket Date Boy – We couldn't have ten virtual reality games that should be adapted for the Oculus Rift without at least one gay title in the mix! Pocket Date Boy is a gay virtual sex game that is lacking in the animation department, comprised mostly of still images. We bet that if Pocket Date Boy came to the Oculus Rift, and a bit of action was involved, it would open up the head mounted device porn to a whole new crowd.

I liked the article. Got my mind racing for sure, trying to think of other virtual sex, porn or games that I'd want to see.
Saboom converted into a Oculus Rift VR sex game would be so good. Obviously it's real women and it probably could be converted relatively easy depending on how the male sex devices develop. Even with the fleshligh and v-stroker, I think it would be beyond epic. How far away from real pornstar VR sex through the Oculus do you realistically think we are? Obviously there are so many avenues for porn and always will be, but it seems like it's such an obviously huge cash for them that they would be all over this? I don't know, but my two cents, for what it's worth.
I hadn't heard of many of these, but I just checked out Night Stud 2 and I'd like to see it into a Rift game for sure. Without knowing much about it, seems like it would be a pretty fun game if you could play it through the Rift.
What about bringing back a classic like Leisure Suit Larry- maybe a bit more hardcore? I'd buy it without even thinking about it.
Thanks guys- like the site.
Leisure suit larry is a classic, although I don't think very many people played it.
Do they still make this game? Let me check….
Check this out, the game is reloaded https://www.google.ca/search?q=Leisure+Suit+Larry:+Reloaded&rlz=1B3GGLL_enCA394CA395&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=WQ1eUtinB6rgiwKd4IGwAQ&ved=0CD4QsAQ&biw=1920&bih=927&dpr=1
Might be interesting with the rift, actually, everything will be interesting with the rift.
Can't wait!

That's awesome, I remember playing Leisure Suit Larry back in the day. I could totally see the whole LRL approach towards an adult VR world with the Oculus Rift. Anyways, Nemos Whores is one I would pickup in a second. I've gotten a chance to play that a few different times and the 3D world they put together is pretty compelling. I could definitely see that getting ported over. But, Saboom looks like an angle that could get realistic sex going with the Oculus Rift and show some amazing sex and adult VR world. Others are compelling as well. Hmmm
Pamon- you bring up a really good point. With the Oculus Rift porn or adult gaming market, there will be designers going for the most realistic sexual experience which Saboom could possibly convert over to at some point but there is also the more fantasy role play virtual game where the game-play, although sexual in nature, may not need to be as highly sophisticated graphics wise (at least initially) to sell millions of copies of it. Then there will be more taboo fetish porn games and apps, games with futuristic or fantasy type characters like mermaids, girls/creatures with various skin complexions, attributes, etc and so on. Then on top of all of that there will be the entire spectrum of gay and lesbian porn games for the Oculus Rift. All in all there will eventually be games for everyones desires and fantasies and then some. Who knows what the Oculus Rift adult/porn experience will unveil about your own interests!

Before discussing the carbon footprint of food, it's important to point out that the environmental impact of food is composed of far more than just a carbon footprint. There are other important environmental impact indicators such as eutrophication, acidification and water footprint, amongst others. However, the fact remains that carbon footprint is still the indicator that gets the most attention. It is also one of the most accurate environmental indicators and one of the easier to comprehend, although there is admittedly still some work to do in that regards.
Moving on to the carbon footprint of fruit and vegetables. The carbon footprint of growing fruit and vegetables arises from the use of fertilisers, consumption of energy for farming, transport and of course packaging. Calculating the carbon footprint of all this is an involved activity, but fortunately for us there are many studies that have already done this.
The carbon footprint of common fruit and veg is shown in the two figures below. The data has been extracted from a report* by the Waste and Resources Action Programme (WRAP), an environmental charity based in the UK.
The above chart shows some of the fruit and vegetables with larger carbon footprints per unit weight. Sweet peppers have the highest carbon footprint from the selection, followed by cucumbers, which was a surprise to see near the top of the list.
So what about lower carbon footprint foods? The chart below shows fruit and veg that are below the weighted average carbon footprint per kg.
The weighted average footprint was calculated based upon the carbon footprint per unit mass and the total sales volumes. The data shows that amongst the lowest carbon footprint vegetables and fruit are apples, potatoes, pears and avocado. The latter was surprising to discover.
What does this really tell us? We have to be a little careful here, in that data per unit of mass is not necessarily the best indicator. It's hard to imagine anyone eating half a kilogram of sweet peppers, cucumbers or asparagus. However, I'm sure there are many people who have feasted on a mountain of potato fries. Quantity clearly has a role to play in the assessment of carbon footprints. That said, the data per unit mass still presents us with interesting information.
Back to the 'wonky' veg, it seems as if both carrots and lemons have a lower than average carbon footprint. Despite this there are still good environmental savings to be had. What's perhaps most interesting about wonky veg, e.g. carrots, is that it has the potential to reduce the carbon footprint of all vegetables. By using the wonky carrots, instead of letting them go to waste, the useful crop yield improves, e.g. from the same total carbon footprint for a farm. This has the benefit of a lower carbon footprint per unit mass of carrot produced.
This therefore provides good progress on the road to sustainability. However, as always, we can't quite stop there. The next step forward is probably to provide more environmentally friendly packaging, e.g. move away from 'disposable' plastic. This nicely demonstrates that if we are ever to realise true sustainability and sustainable development, then we can't afford to rest of our laurels.

Are you a high school junior thinking about attending college? Congratulations! You're on the first step towards planning for a successful future. But what should you do next?
The first step is to start sending letters or emails to the colleges that you want to attend. Do this in January of your high school junior year so that you have plenty of time to submit all of the application materials by their due date. The college application process can often be time consuming and require you to write and gather various paperwork, like letters of recommendation, a statement of purpose, personal essays, ACT and SAT scores, and sending your transcripts.
Each of these things will take time, so preparation is key here. Plan on asking for information from 5-10 colleges. You don't have to apply to all of these schools, but this will give you a good sense of what prospective colleges are looking for in their future students. Consider diversifying where you ask for information. Contact a couple of colleges that you have a good chance to get into and a couple of colleges that might be a long shot. Also, contact colleges close to home and away from home. It will be good to compare prices of colleges with both in-state and out-of-state tuition, financial aid assistance, and living costs, so that you know what to plan for.
As you start to gather all of this information, start a list of follow up questions that you come across. Jot down anything that comes to mind, like asking about their acceptance rate, student to teacher ratio, and what the dorm life is like for current students. This whole process can be overwhelming, so ask your parents and mentors for help. They will love to help you plan for your future.
Now take a deep breath and start looking forward to a bright future ahead!

IRS Has $2 Billion for People Who Have Not Filed a 2001 Tax Return
IR-2005-13, Feb. 8, 2005
WASHINGTON — Unclaimed refunds totaling more than $2 billion are awaiting about 1.7 million people who failed to file an income tax return for 2001, the Internal Revenue Service announced today. However, in order to collect the money, a return must be filed with the IRS no later than April 15, 2005.
The IRS estimates that half of those who could claim refunds would receive more than $484. In some cases, individuals had taxes withheld from their wages or made payments against their taxes out of self-employed earnings but had too little income to require filing a tax return. Some taxpayers may also be eligible for the refundable Earned Income Tax Credit.
"The window is closing for 2001 refunds," IRS Commissioner Mark W. Everson said. "As soon as you send us your tax return, you'll get your money. But if you don't file, you won't get anything."
In cases where a return was not filed, the law provides most taxpayers with a three-year window of opportunity to claim a refund. If no return is filed to claim the refund within three years, the money becomes property of the U.S. Treasury. For 2001 returns, the window closes on April 15, 2005. The law requires that the return be properly addressed, postmarked and mailed by that date. There is no penalty assessed by the IRS for filing a late return qualifying for a refund.
The IRS reminds taxpayers seeking a 2001 refund that their checks will be held if they have not filed tax returns for 2002 or 2003. In addition, the refund will be applied to any amounts still owed to the IRS and may be used to satisfy unpaid child support or past due federal debts such as student loans.
By failing to file a return, individuals stand to lose more than refunds of taxes withheld or paid during 2001. Many low-income workers may not have claimed the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). Although eligible taxpayers may get a refund when their EITC is more than their tax, those who file returns more than three years late would be able only to offset their tax. They would not be able to receive refunds if the credit exceeds their tax.
Generally, individuals qualified for the EITC in 2001 if they earned less than $32,121 and had two or more qualifying children living with them, earned less than $28,281 with one qualifying child or earned less than $10,710 with no qualifying child.
Current and prior year tax forms are available on IRS.gov or by calling 1-800-TAX-FORM (1-800-829-3676). Taxpayers who need help may also call the IRS help line at 1-800-829-1040.
State-by-state estimates for individuals who failed to file a 2001 return with a refund due are below.

Q: how to update the list in angularjs? could you please tell me how to update list item in angular js ..Actually i am adding item on using add button .it is generated a row dynamically .there is update and delete button on row ..please check on full screen .when you press delete button it delete the row which is running fine .I need to update the row also  using update button . when I click update button I set the value in input fields .But I need to change the text of button "update" instead of "add" button and user can update the value by clicking update it will also reflect on list
here is my code
http://plnkr.co/edit/VrfKKxdjcZsVx6uSd8kL?p=preview
var app=angular.module('app', ['ui.bootstrap']);
app.controller('listcontroller',function($scope){

    $scope.data=[]
    $scope.addItem=function(){
        $scope.data.push({
            name:$scope.firstname,
            lastname:$scope.lastname,
        })
        $scope.firstname='';
        $scope.lastname=''
    }

    $scope.delete=function(index){

        $scope.data.splice(index, 1);

    }

    $scope.update=function(index){

       var obj =$scope.data[index]
        console.log(obj)

        $scope.firstname=obj.name;
        $scope.lastname=obj.lastname;

    }
})

A: Now in your html template you always call on ng-click the addItem() function. On update you should call another function ex updateItem() function. One solution to do this is to have 2 buttons one for add and one for update and just show/hide the current button.
Here is a forked plnkr that is workig http://plnkr.co/edit/dO9xFZcVpsKvKYwbLOkq?p=preview

A: Just to expand on @user944513 answer, add
$scope.firstname='';
 $scope.lastname='';
 $scope.currentUpdate = null;
into the the update function on her Plunker.
I would post this in comments but rep is to low. Please tick as correct answer as could do with rep haha.

#'S MATCHING 327CI, EXCELLENT SILVER PAINT, 4 PSEED, SOFT TOP LOOKS BRAND NEW
This handsome 1968 Corvette is what a majority of Corvette buyers received when they stepped up and bought an all-new Stingray. With a matching-numbers 327, a 4-speed gearbox, and a fantastic Silverstone Silver paint job, it's an ideal way to own a vintage Corvette without spending a fortune.
Granted, this one was originally British Green, but who can argue when the car looks this good? Thanks to a comprehensive restoration, there's no trace of the original finish anywhere on the car: door jambs, underneath, even in the top well, it's all been completely covered in silver paint. Whatever the color, the important thing is that the fiberglass underneath is quite well preserved and shows none of the usual cracking or split seams that you find on neglected cars. The restoration was completed a few years ago, but it still has a great look that will have people turning to watch as you motor past. But it's also the kind of car that you won't mind packing up for a week on the road, perhaps heading to one of the great Corvette events that are held all over the country and where driving your car is 90% of the fun. And when you arrive, an early C3 will find a very enthusiastic crowd waiting to have a closer look.
Chevrolet called this interior "standard" but it's anything but. One look at the interior will convince you that this has always been a beloved car, given that even the seat covers are original and in excellent shape. A newer and fatter woodgrained steering wheel continues to link the Corvette to its European inspirations and gives it an upscale look inside, and the gauges look great. 1968 Corvettes debuted the fiber-optic lamp monitoring system in the center console, which is always a cool feature for first-time Corvette owners, and there's a newer AM/FM/CD stereo system that sounds awesome in the vintage ragtop. And, of course, it's hard to resist a Corvette with a shift-it-yourself gearbox, especially when it's topped by a Hurst cue ball. A snug-fitting black convertible top stows easily in just a few seconds, so there's really no excuse not to enjoy your new 'Vette alfresco.
The engine is the original, numbers-matching 300 horsepower 327 with a lot of new components, so it runs like a small block Chevy should. And while the 327 lived in the shadow of the mighty 427, it's important to note that this car will idle all day in traffic and not foul its plugs, it's considerably easier on gas, and quite honestly, 300 horsepower still makes this a very potent machine. The block wears correct Chevy Orange paint, an Edelbrock intake, Holley carb, and a set of long-tube headers feeding those wonderful-sounding side pipes, not to mention a bunch of dress-up that makes it the kind of engine bay you'll want to show off. The 4-speed Muncie snaps off rapid-fire shifts like a bolt-action rifle, and the suspension rides better than you'd expect from a car with this one's capabilities. Classic Torque Thrust wheels are an interesting and period-correct look on a Corvette, and these wear 215/70/15 front and 275/60/15 rear BFGoodrich radials.
Nicely equipped and a blast to drive, this Corvette roadster is your ticket into one of the greatest segments of the old car hobby. Call today!

2018 is expected to be an incredibly sanguine year for the mining industry. With the help of China's strong demand raising the commodity price, the sector is expected to make a solid contribution to the annual gross domestic product (GDP). This positive forecast has also resulted in a strong pipeline of investments due to growing investor confidence. Increase in investments is also due to a more stable political climate and new mining charter and policies.
Zambia: Zambian mining is forecasted to have a very productive year with copper prices rising above $7000 per tonne, thus resulting in more revenue for the country. This coupled with favourable political conditions have led to an influx in investment and production. Weatherly International acquired the Kitumba copper project in Zambia and will be focussing on a high-grade and high-confidence Phase 1 development zone within the resource. Japan has also proposed to Zambia to invest around US $2 billion on the development of infrastructure and setting up industries in Zambia for mining of rare-earth, a key component in manufacturing of electronics. Canadian based diversified industries corporation, Maxtech Ventures begins Manganese research in Zambia. Konkola Copper Mines also aiming to lift copper production to 500,000 metric tonnes per annum due to huge investments by Vedanta Resources Plc and the current positive market fundamentals.
Zimbabwe: The government is focussing on the mining sector as it is the main engine of growth and revenue generator of the country. Currently, mining accounts for 50% of the country's earning and the long term future looks brighter with the sustained commodity price increases, reduced costs combined with new technology trends. ZIMBABWE is expected to be one of the major global players in the production of processed lithium, a main component in the manufacturing of electric car batteries. Prospect Resources are aiming to start extraction and processing the mineral in 2018.
Côte d'Ivoire: Côte d'Ivoire is definitely at the forefront as a West African investor-worthy destination. The mining sector has been growing steadily in the country with the following minerals: gold, manganese, iron ore, nickel and bauxite. The country's strong project pipeline will be a key driver of gold production growth over the coming years. Manas Resources Limited has entered into agreements to acquire 85% interest in the Gonsan Project and 80% in the Bouaké Nord Project.

The Lord Mayor of Cork says there is no scope to question a decision of Cabinet.
It's after the County Mayor, Cllr Declan Hurley released a statement outlining his intention to request a meeting with Cllr Tony Fitzgerald on the City Boundary Extension.
On Friday a vote was taken by Cork County Council members on the boundary line approved by Government last week.
It would see Ballincollig, Cork Airport, Blarney, Tower and Glanmire become part of the city.
A special meeting of Cork City Council has been called for this evening to ratify the extension.


A single day more for Udta Punjab to hit the theaters with a BANG! The movie has been in a raging controversy since several days. The title Udta Punjab means "Flying Punjab." The movie pictures drug menace in the state of Punjab. The movie has been a hub for the Central Board of Film Certification for some time. The movie focuses on the darker realm of the state Punjab in the present era. Speculations are in the air that the movie could hurt the sentiments of the Punjabis. It could also affect the peaceful atmosphere of the state. Eventually, government of the state is getting involved in pondering and making comments on the movie.
After being mum for several days, the Chief Minister of the state Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and the Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Badal had put forward there notions toward the film. The Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Badal ref the film as being one of the numberless films that are produced in the country for commercial reasons. He also states that the politicians are unsure of what kind of impact the movie will leave on the state as they haven't watched the movie. Sukhbir also affirmed that "it is illogical" to suggest government's intervention to make cuts in the movie in this stage. The release of the movie whether to be permitted or restricted is the issue between producers and CBFC. The government has no stand to be involved in the release issues. Sukhbir added such movies are welcomed and supported that are aiming towards image correction of the citizens of Punjab, who are in high position and are prejudice.
Udta Punjab is an Indian Crime thriller film picturing the current struggle of Punjab with drugs. Reportedly, the movie had issues with the censor board over profanities and use of drug in the movie. Formerly the Censor Board demanded 94 cuts in the movie and 13 pointer prior changes. The Censor Board also asked to change the name of the cities in Punjab. The film awaited its verdict by the Mumbai High Court and the results were out yesterday "One Cut." HURRAY! It was a celebration time for the entire film associates. The High Court Orders were to release the movie with just one cut. On Monday morning the Mumbai High Court struck down all the criticisms. The High Court demanded the makers to eliminate Shahid Kapoor's urinating scene in the movie.
"No one can dictate to a movie creator about the content of his film," commented High Court. Being under the shelter of Balaji Motion Picture and directed by Abhishek Chaubey, the movie Udta Punjab is scheduled to be released on 17 June, starring Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor in lead roles with Alia Bhatt and Daljit Dosanjh.

Q: Android database update by attaching database I have an app and I want to update its database to the next version by adding new values to it. The new data is in their temp database.
This is my onUpgrade() method:
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
        // version 2

        try{

            db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE tbl_questions ADD COLUMN q_fav BOOLEAN DEFAULT 0");
            db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE tbl_users ADD COLUMN user_voted BOOLEAN DEFAULT 0");
            db.execSQL("INSERT INTO tbl_categories (_id, cat_title) VALUES (3, '\u0639\u0645\u0648\u0645\u06CC (\u0639\u0644\u0648\u0645 \u0627\u0646\u0633\u0627\u0646\u06CC)')");
            db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE [tbl_schedule] (" +
                       "[_id] INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, " +
                       "[lesson_name] VARCHAR, " +
                       "[lesson_unit] VARCHAR, " +
                       "[teacher_name] VARCHAR, " +
                       "[exam_date] VARCHAR, " +
                       "[description] VARCHAR);");
            db.setTransactionSuccessful();
            db.endTransaction();
            db.execSQL("ATTACH DATABASE '/data/data/com.andrun.payamenoo/databases/db_temp.sqlite' AS SRC;");
            db.beginTransaction();
            db.execSQL("INSERT INTO MAIN.tbl_questions SELECT * FROM SRC.tbl_questions;");
            //db.execSQL("DETACH SRC;");
        }catch(Exception e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }finally{
        }

        super.onUpgrade(db, oldVersion, newVersion);
    }

Four first work well. The problem is attaching query. Code doesn't throw any exception or any error but it also doesn't have any effect on the database and new data doesn't get added.
How do I fix this?

A: You must increase the number you pass in the SQLiteDatabaseOpenHelper constructor.
That is the DB_VERSION, by increasing it, your onUpgrade method will be called with the parameters being the oldVersion (= from which version) and newVersion ( = the DB_VERSION you just setted), based on these integers you can do each ALTER TABLE to all versions.

A lista dos singles número um na Billboard Hot 100 em 2013 foi publicada pela revista norte-americana Billboard, sendo que os dados foram recolhidos pela Nielsen SoundScan e baseados em cada venda semanal física e digital, além da popularidade da canção nas rádios e o seu fluxo de média na Internet. Em Fevereiro, a metodologia de classificação das faixas foi actualizada com a inclusão da transmissão de vídeos pelo portal YouTube. Durante o decorrer do ano, onze foram os singles que atingiram o topo da tabela nas 52 edições da revista.

Em 2013, oito artistas ganharam o seu primeiro single número um no Norte da América, nomeadamente Macklemore, Ryan Lewis, Wanz, Baauer, Ray Dalton, Robin Thicke, Miley Cyrus e Lorde. Thicke, com "Blurred Lines", permaneceu na liderança da tabela musical durante doze semanas consecutivas e foi listado como tendo a segunda canção mais vendida do ano. Contudo, foi "Thrift Shop" da dupla Macklemore e Lewis, com seis edições não-consecutivas, que terminou no topo da lista de final de ano como música mais comprada durante o período de doze meses.

"Locked Out of Heaven" foi o primeiro número um do ano, pertencente a Mars, que permaneceu por quatro semanas consecutivas no topo. "The Monster", de Eminem com Rihanna, foi o trabalho que fechou o ciclo do ano. Outros singles com um número alargado de semanas no topo foram "Royals", de Lorde, que ficou nove semanas na primeira posição, "Harlem Shake" de Baauer e "Can't Hold Us" de Macklemore e Lewis com Dalton, ambos por cinco semanas consecutivas. "Wrecking Ball" de Cyrus e "Just Give Me a Reason" de Pink com Nate Ruess, conseguiram perdurar na frente durante outras três actualizações.

Outros destaques de 2013 nas publicações da Billboard Hot 100 incluem a cantora Rihanna, que com a sua colaboração em "The Monster", alcançou o seu décimo terceiro número um e empatando com Michael Jackson. Além disso, tornou-se a primeira artista feminina em 55 anos de história da revista a conseguir alcançar o número de vezes na liderança da tabela musical em menos tempo. Bruno Mars, além de Macklemore e Ryan Lewis, foi um dos que conseguiram atingir a primeira posição da tabela com dois singles diferentes: "Locked Out of Heaven" e "When I Was Your Man". Mars foi nomeado o artista do ano pela Billboard e conseguiu que mais uma obra sua atingisse as cinco mais compradas nos Estados Unidos.

It all starts here. Right now. Today.
Don't put off what you can start today :).
Please don't put it off any longer.
I'm asking you not to.
You've got this and you can do it.
I'm not talking about setting a whole bunch of resolutions, which, if I'm really really honest, you probably won't keep.
This is about setting intentions. This is about getting closer to that bigger vision you want in your life and making it a reality.
What do you want to make room for and invite into your life this coming year? Is it a new relationship? Is it a financial target? Do you want to start a business? Do you want to move home or country?
Clarity – get really clear on what your vision for the year looks like. Get really specific. Where are you, who are you with and what are they like, is there a target you're aiming for? Write it down or map it out. How does it feel looking at that?
Decide – you have a choice now. You can decide that you'll take action to achieve that beautiful vision or you can put it away and say you'll start tomorrow. Remember, I believe in you and you can absolutely have whatever you put your mind to. Don't stop now!
Visualisation – know it already exists for you. You are taking action towards it and it's only physical time that needs to pass before you get there. You might hit a few bumps in the road (that's normal), but the more action you take that's aligned to this intention or vision the quicker you will get there. Read or look at your vision daily and feel that it's already yours!
P.S. What are you struggling to manifest in your life or what have you been putting off for years? By doing something different you will start to find a solution that works for you. Give it a go, what have you got to lose?

Q: Script Mediator Javascript does not work properly on WSO2 EI ESB Good afternoon, I am new to the WSO2 ESB and I am working with an api in which we are using a mediator script with javascript, however I get that the script does not work correctly, basically the script which takes the value and makes it some transformation, however, at the log level I see that the variable only indicates a value of True, as if it were boolean
My API is the following:

       </log>

The script that I am using at the javascript level is the following:
<script language="js">var exponent = mc.getProperty('exponentBalance');                  var balance = mc.getProperty('balance');                  if(exponent > 0) {             var itera = exponent * -1;                    var zero = '0';               for (i = 0; i < itera; ++i) {           zero = zero.concat('0');                        }             var result = balance.concat(zero);                   }                  mc.setProperty("RESULT", String(result));</script>

The same if I add a fixed value to the Result variable, it always shows True, I am using the WSO2 EI 6.5
What could be happening?
UPDATE
Update the line to set the variable as defined below:
<script language="js">var exponent = mc.getProperty('exponentBalance');                  var balance = mc.getProperty('balance');                  if(exponent > 0) {             var itera = exponent * -1;                    var zero = '0';               for (i = 0; i < itera; ++i) {           zero = zero.concat('0');                        }             var result = balance.concat(zero);                   }                  mc.setProperty("result", String(result));</script>

Where the following line was modified:
mc.setProperty("result", String(result))

However, I get the following at the log level:

A: It is possible that you have set the value "true" for the property "result". This is because you are not setting any value for the property "result" in the script mediator.
In the script mediator you are setting the value with the property name "RESULT" whereas you are obtaining the value of the property with the property name "result".
mc.setProperty("RESULT", String(result));
<property name="result" expression="get-property('result')"/>

If you want to access the value set within the script mediator, you need to set the value as following.
mc.setProperty("result", String(result));

Update based on the first comment
The reason for this behaviour is that, you have defined the variable "result" within the if condition of the script mediator. In case the if condition is not executed, the "result" will be undefined. You need to define the var "result" before the if condition with a default value.

Reading this. As I understand it, dinosaurs were small beer during the Triassic, outclassed by bigger, more dominant competitors, like pseudosuchians and amphibians. Then Pangea split about 201 million years ago, venting vast amounts of magma and noxious gas, initiating catastrophic climate change and triggering the Tr-J extinction event. Dinosaurs fared better than other families, becoming dominant in the Jurassic. There's no consensus as to why.
edd35d6a3d38fc7b.jpeg
It sorta stands to reason that dinosaurs' ascendancy has something to do with their adaptability in response to the Tr-J extinction event. But what, exactly? Did the changes to the climate suit their physiology better? Did the mass deaths of other species simply open niches that dinosaurs were then free to fill? There's a lot of room for speculation, but little definitive evidence on which to eliminate competing theories, AFAIK.
The section on the adaptations that allowed sauropods to reach the upper limits of body mass is pretty fascinating.
I wonder why bipedalism never really took off among modern carnivorous mammals. It seems like it was a pretty successful adaptation during the Jurassic, but I can't think of any mammalian carnivores that sport that body alignment as an adaptation.
L.J.: Emacs propagandist @ljwrites@rage.love
@lrhodes bipedalism seems to happen under fairly specific circumstances, like for our own ancestors it evidently saved about a biscuit packet's worth of energy a year in the savannah grasslands which turned out to be a significant leg up, as it were. I can see how in many other circumstances/species it wasn't worth it, particularly with the childbirth complications in mammals.
@ljwrites Ah, live birth vs. egg laying seems like a potentially strong differentiator here! Good call.

Require more than simple majority of close votes to migrate
Following a post about a garbage question that was migrated to Programmers, Jeff posted this answer about some basic migration protection that is in place (at least one matching tag). That is a really good start.
Michael Petrotta then pointed out that only three of the users involved may have actually voted to migrate.
So, I have a suggestion for another way to protect from bad migrations - don't use the same simple majority rule (>3) for choosing the final close reason if it is migration.
Migration is the only close reason that actually impacts another site as well. For this reason I don't think it makes sense to migrate questions that have up to two users disagreeing. Could we require migrations to reach 5 actual migration close votes?
Possibly related question that you might like more or less than this one:
Should off-topic migration close votes be differentiated from others?

Supermajority determines migration (4/5), simple majority at 5 votes closes as off topic. Or, perhaps, some similar calculation involving voter's reputation. – user1228 Apr 29 '11 at 16:35
I would like to say that I am extremely happy about any change that reduces the chance of finding myself an accessory to crimes like this. I felt pretty bad after seeing some of the comments on the post-migration question, despite not voting for it. :[ – McCannot Jul 7 '11 at 6:00
@camccann - OMG. – Nicole Jul 7 '11 at 6:02
Yes, @Renesis. My thoughts exactly. :[ – McCannot Jul 7 '11 at 6:06
@Jeff - just thought now would be a good time to point out that you only need to vote on 17 more questions for your Electorate badge. :) – Nicole Jul 7 '11 at 6:20
I have increased the threshold of matching migration votes required for a successful migration from three to four.
This means that 4/5 of the close votes must agree on the destination for the migration for it to occur. Otherwise the question is simply closed as "off topic" as before.
This is also specific to Stack Overflow only at the moment, since it is by far the largest producer of migrations -- and often many of the most problematic.
This is great news, and given the requirement that the destination match on all four, I think it will take care of a significant number of the problem questions. (Is it possible for a dev to look back and see statistics on how many it would have affected?) – Nicole Jul 7 '11 at 5:48
Hooray! Thank you! Having had my name attached to at least one terrible migration I didn't support, which I later saw complaints about on Meta, this makes me very happy. I didn't like being in the situation of either leaving a terrible question to fester on SO or contributing to dumping more garbage into Programmers. – McCannot Jul 7 '11 at 5:51
Can one add more migration votes after the close threshold is already reached? Or do we need a moderator for this? – Paŭlo Ebermann Jul 8 '11 at 1:31
@Paŭlo: No, if a post is closed, a moderator has to reopen it, then re-close to migrate. – Jon Seigel Jul 9 '11 at 16:43
Can this be added somewhere in the faq? – Foo Bah Sep 22 '11 at 3:52
The one issue I can see with this is when people might initially vote as off-topic, S&A, or NaRQ when it actually would belong on another site. These are people who may actually support migration, but it wasn't the thing that came to mind when they cast their first vote. We see this a lot with other close reasons - things marked as NaRQ that actually are just duplicates, S&As that are really just off-topic, vice versa of those as well. Sometimes it takes another person's perspective to realize the proper fate of a question, but this system nullifies that.
We can't change close votes, so there's no systematic way to know that the users who voted differently actually disagree with the other close reasons, or they just didn't realize that the other option existed and may be valid.

Right, and if there's a wrongful migration, it should be kicked up to the mods. They can clear the migration history and the take the appropriate action. – Ghost User Apr 29 '11 at 17:33
Is anyone with close rights really not aware that migration is an option? Generally I'd say that if people aren't 100% sure (that is can't work it out without prompting) then migration probably isn't right. – Jon Hopkins Jul 1 '11 at 16:17
Part of the design that would be necessary for this feature proposal would be keeping the question open until enough votes came in to accept a simple majority of one of the regular close reasons, or a supermajority of migration votes. So, I don't believe it nullifies anything. – Nicole Jul 1 '11 at 17:52
For what it's worth, as a Programmers mod, I don't think this is an issue with the migration mechanism.
It's hard to expect a site's community to be well-versed in the rules and customs of other sites. I think that what we're seeing is more plain ignorance than malice. We can deal with bad migrations at Programmers. If you see one, just flag it and we'll take care of it.
Some questions look like bad fits to start, but can be salvaged through editing. Some just need to be burned to the ground and we can do that, too.
In the end, most petitions on meta to be more careful with migrations and whatnot will not reach the people who need to see them most -- average 3k+ users. The mod teams on SO and Programmers usually coordinate migrations or we at least get a heads up on iffy questions that may be headed our way. But the mod teams can only do so much, so community-driven migrations are important and I don't think reducing a community's ability to perform that function is a good approach.
But does it reduce the community's ability to perform that function? Closes need 5 votes. But the migration action only needs 3 in agreement. If the migration is a good one, it doesn't seem onerous to require 5 to agree on it, just like a simple close. – Nicole Apr 29 '11 at 17:56
Also, as Jeff said it's not about the rules of the receiving site. It's crap, and it should just be closed (anywhere). – Nicole Apr 29 '11 at 17:57
@Renesis For some questions, that's true. They're crap. Those that aren't would be unfairly penalized by the increased requirement for a migration. If people don't know that a question is a bad fit for a site, they might not know if it's a good fit either. – Adam Lear♦ Apr 29 '11 at 18:00
@Renesis: you're looking at a sample size of 1. In the last two days, >30 questions have been migrated - at least three decent questions for every one that ended up closed. A super-majority rule would make it harder to migrate anything, good or bad - if that's what you want, then you should probably just bite the bullet and petition the team to remove the P.SE migration path entirely. – Shog9 Apr 29 '11 at 18:02
@Shog9 See my comment above - does it really make it harder to migrate everything? Why? Did those good migrations have only 3 migrate votes, as well? I would assume good migrations are almost always getting 4 or 5 in agreement. – Nicole Apr 29 '11 at 18:03
@Renesis That may be true, but I wouldn't make that assumption. It's not guaranteed to be the case. – Adam Lear♦ Apr 29 '11 at 18:06
@Shog9 also you are absolutely right about the sample size and I'm not saying ring the alarm bells, we have big problems here. But, I do look at problems and see if there are ways we can be proactive instead of waiting to be reactive. – Nicole Apr 29 '11 at 18:06
@Renesis: see Grace Note's answer. Anecdotally, I see a lot of disagreement among closers as to which reason is most appropriate - GN is most likely correct in suspecting that the first migration vote sets the tone for future voting. There's no easy way to know for sure which questions had which votes, since that's not tracked... But that also means there's no good reason to think this requirement would have a positive effect on quality. And it's good you're thinking about this, but keep in mind: this is a change that would affect migrations to all sites, not just Programmers. – Shog9 Apr 29 '11 at 18:12

This is Part 2 of the Quickstart Demo. In Part 1, we created a new project and we can see it on the "Projects" page.
Click on your new "Ice Cream Shop" project to view the Project Details page.
The left side of the project details page is the visual editor. This allows you to see all of the parts of your project and how they are connected.
Each box represents an "intent". An intent is what the user intended by what they say. So, for example, if the user says "Open Ice Cream Shop", the welcome intent will be activated. If they say "Chocolate", the chocolate intent might be activated.
New projects always start with 3 intents: Welcome, Goodbye, and Help.
We'll only be using a small subset of the features that are available in this demo. Be sure to check out the other help articles and videos that cover each feature in detail.
We don't need the Goodbye or Help intents for this demo. Click the red "x" in the upper right corner of these blocks to delete them.
In the "Welcome" intent details window on the far right, on the "Activation" tab, under "Intent Activation", choose "When the skill is launched" for the "Intent is activated" dropdown.
Click on the "Responses" tab of the intent details window and add a new Response Group by clicking the icon at the bottom of the window.
In the new Response Group that appears, under Alexa Response, click in the What should Alexa say? box and enter: "Welcome to the Ice Cream Shop. Do you prefer Chocolate? Or Vanilla?". Then hit enter/return.
Click the "New Intent" button at the top of the Project Designer window.
Rename the new intent, by double-clicking on the "New Intent" text at the top of the Intent Details window and type "Chocolate".
On the Intent Activation tab, under Intent Activation, choose "By what the user says" for the "Intent is activated" dropdown.
Select the "Welcome" intent in the "And is only activated by" dropdown.
In the new Response Group that appears, under Alexa Response, click in the "What should Alexa say?" box and enter: "Good choice! Chocolate is also my favorite!". Then hit enter/return.
Click on the "Next Actions" tab. Choose "End the session" option for the "After all of the above actions are complete, Alexa will..." dropdown.
Repeat the "Configure the Chocolate Intent" steps 1 through 7 above to create a "Vanilla" intent. Enter "Vanilla is a really good flavor, but I prefer Chocolate myself." in step 6.
Our skill is now complete. In Part 3 of this series, we'll test and deploy our new skill.


ABC News recently reported that according to highway safety experts, highways in nearly every state have been outfitted with the redesigned Trinity guardrail. This means that there are hundreds of thousands of these guardrail parts on U.S. roads.
Trinity redesigned its guardrail in 2005 without notifying the Federal Highway Administration. One of those modifications involved shrinking an integral metal piece by one inch, from five inches to four. A company engineer noted in an internal email that the change would save Trinity approximately $2 dollars a piece. However, according to The Boston Globe, before approving the guardrail for continued use in 2012, a senior Trinity engineer expressed concerns about its safety.
Highway guardrails are supposed to push the steel guard railing away from an incoming car, while slowing the vehicle to a stop. Yet, one cannot deny the serious injuries that have resulted when vehicles have collided with the redesigned Trinity guardrails.
At least five deaths and even more injuries in at least 14 motor vehicle crashes are being blamed on these Trinity guardrails. Rather than cushioning impact, the Trinity-made guardrail end caps reportedly are spearing the vehicle and its occupants.
Trinity, however, told ABC News that it didn't think an announcement of the change when it redesigned the product was necessary because the modifications did not impact the system's performance or its maintenance or installation. Yet certain related documents that should have been turned over to the government agency were "inadvertently omitted." The company maintains that the redesigned guardrail parts meet federal standards and have passed two crash tests.
Other states, including Nevada and Missouri, also recently banned the Trinity guardrails. Although the Federal Highway Administration had accepted Trinity's claim that the guardrails satisfy safety criteria, letting states use federal money to buy and install the guardrail heads, officials are now demanding that Trinity conduct new crash tests in the wake of the whistleblower verdict.
In Massachusetts, please contact our Boston injury law firm if you suspect that your injuries are a result of crashing into a highway guardrail.

Maria and Blas is very nice and friendly couple. They came to Croatia from far South America, from Ecuador. They chose Villa Polesini not by chance. This is a great place to hold a wedding ceremony in an open area surrounded by a green park by the sea. The villa is located in the heart of the historic city of Porec, from the garden of villa you can leave to medieval streets directly.
The wedding ceremony was in the garden, where all guests after that congratulated the newlyweds, had snacks and cocktails.
After that the dinner continued in the magnificent ceremonial hall of the villa.
It was a great celebrate, where were the closest and dearest people, friends. The weather was so warm, was so comfort for conversation, laugh, fun. Everything was so cozy and homely, in a relaxed atmosphere, without unnecessary vanity.
Thank you for this day, it was unforgettable!
