Q: Pagination in wordpress is not working I have created a custom made home page where there are name of the categpries. When I click on the categories, I am redirecting to another page named as " page-category.php ", passing the category ID in URl. In page-category.php page I want to capture the id and show the customized post design with photos and excerpt of that particular category. However I want pagination on my page in case number of posts exceed a certain number. None of the pagination function is working properly. here is my code:
$paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
 $npsPosts = new WP_Query('posts_per_page=5&cat='.$cat_id.'&paged=' . $paged);
            if($npsPosts -> have_posts()):

        next_posts_link( 'Older Entries', $the_query->max_num_pages );
        previous_posts_link( 'Newer Entries' );

          <?php
                while($npsPosts->have_posts()): $npsPosts ->the_post();
                    if ( !in_array( $post->ID, $do_not_duplicate )) {  ?>

                                <a href='<?php the_permalink();?>'><?php the_post_thumbnail('medium-thumbnail'); ?>

<a href='<?php the_permalink();?>'><?php the_title();?>

                                Reading time : <?php echo reading_time(); ?>

<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

<a href='<?php the_permalink();?>'>Read more

jkn

                    <?php
              }
                endwhile;

                      next_posts_link( 'Older Entries', $the_query->max_num_pages );
          previous_posts_link( 'Newer Entries' );
    else:
            endif;

I haven't added anything in function.php.When I click the category option the I am sending the URL like "wwww.example.com?id=108" . I am catching the ID in page-category.php and displaying all the posts of that category ID. The URL becomes "www.example.com/category/?id=108". When using pagination it becomes like "www.example.com/category/page/2/?id=108". If it is not the right approach please suggest.

A: remove functions next_posts_link,previous_posts_link
and add below code:
$big = 999999999; // need an unlikely integer

echo paginate_links( array(
    'base' => str_replace( $big, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( $big ) ) ),
    'format' => '?paged=%#%',
    'current' => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ),
    'total' => $npsPosts->max_num_pages
) );

Young and the Restless (YR) Spoilers: Christmas Week Wishes In Genoa City – Victor Newman's Epic Return
SpoilersThe Young and The Restless
By Curtis Danier	 On Dec 27, 2018
Y&R spoilers indicate Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) awakens on 'The Young and the Restless'. That's the type of miracle her family is wishing for in Genoa City. Meanwhile, a returned Victor (Eric Braeden) literally takes matters into his own hands in order to move beyond hope to action.
Unlike what Nikki, Vickie (Amelia Heinle), and Sharon (Sharon Case) did to Tessa (Cait Fairbanks), Victor is not actually "kidnapping" Nikki. Instead, he's protecting his wife from harm by removing her from danger and ensuring that she receives fully focused medical care. The 'Moustache' wishes for his wife's recovery created some of the more heartwarming scenes in 2018's memory.
As was proven by Victor's entrance into GC's Memorial Hospital, literally anyone, even a wanted criminal, as Rey (Jordi Vilasuso) has deemed him, could have access to Thomas Scott's currently comatose character. That's why Victor's actions are both protective and preventative.
Y&R Alum Michael Muhney Defends His Relationship With Sharon Case
The Moustache wishes for his wife's recovery are being furthered through what he's done. As Y&R viewers recall, Nate (Brooks Darnell) was and remains Nikki's concierge doctor before he recently served as her surgeon. Dr. Hastings' initial arrangement will be utilized now.
Vickie and Nick (Joshua Morrow) were recently told by Nate that their mother may not have much time left on this earth. That's why time is critical and Victor's actions should prove key to her life continuing.
Along with the above, another Christmas week wish in this fictional Wisconsin town involves the exposure of whoever's been torturing Nikki and the rest of her coverup crew. While Rey is a good detective, he's unable to cross law lines that Victor is running over to help his one true love.
#MerryChristmas from all of us at #YR and St. Nick himself. 😉 pic.twitter.com/trD27gmdh0
— Young and Restless (@YandR_CBS) December 25, 2018
By transferring Nikki to a more secure environment, Victor is likely setting in motion a series of events that will draw out the true villain. Braeden's just returned character isn't responsible for J.T.'s (Thad Luckinbill) head conk, that unfortunately resulted in Mr. Hellstrom's death. No, that was Nikki. And whoever subsequently moved J.T.'s body in order to seek revenge must be revealed so that this long-running arc can end.
And as always, don't forget to check back with Hollywood Hiccups for all the latest news, updates and spoilers on The Young and the Restless and all of your favorite daytime television shows right here!

With blustery weather designed to put dreams of a snowy Christmas into everyone's bones, McKeesport's 33rd annual Festival of Trees opened Thursday at Jacob Woll Pavilion.
The annual celebration of the holidays --- and of the creativity of more than 90 local groups and churches who have created hand-decorated ornaments for their Christmas trees --- is open from 12 noon to 9 p.m., now through Monday.
Admission is $2 for adults. Children age 12 and under are admitted free with one canned good for a needy family.
By the time of Thursday's tree lighting ceremony at the corner of Arboretum and Sycamore drives --- and the arrival of Santa on a McKeesport Fire Department truck --- snow and ice were falling, temperatures had dropped to the low 20s and a stiff wind was blowing.
But that didn't seem to discourage visitors, who stood in line to get their photos taken with the North Pole visitor.
McKeesport Councilman Keith Soles says this year's Festival of Trees may be the largest ever, with 94 trees at the Jacob Woll Pavilion and more trees nearby at the McKeesport Regional History & Heritage Center and the Garden Club of McKeesport.
Parking is available in the area around Jacob Woll Pavilion for people with handicapped placards and license plates, only, a spokeswoman said. Other visitors should park in the lots near the senior center and arboretum.
The event also includes a menu of hot meals provided by McKeesport Area culinary students, a bake sale by the Semper Fidelis Club and hayrides through Renziehausen Park.
Above: the McKeesport Festival of Trees Committee includes (back row) Harold Allen, Recreation Director Jim Brown and Soles. In the front row, Janet Zosack, Pat Harris and Cheryl Cotter with two puppies that came for Santa pictures.

The Importance of the Civil Service
By Loren DeJonge Schulman and Whitney Kassel
In a signature theme of its first 100 days, the Trump administration, encouraged by conservative media outlets, has launched an assault on civil servants the likes of which should have gone out of style in the McCarthy era. Attacks on their credibility, motivations, future employment, and basic missions have become standard fare for White House press briefings and initiatives. In doing so, the administration and its backers may be crippling their legacy from the start by casting away the experts and implementers who not only make the executive agenda real but provide critical services for ordinary Americans. But in a move that should trouble all regardless of political affiliation, they also run the risk of undermining fundamental democratic principles of American governance.
Searching for policy-based or political rationale for these moves overlooks a key point: that the United States civil service can be an enormous asset for presidential administrations regardless of party, and undermining it belies a misunderstanding of what public servants actually do. These good folks, the vast majority of whom do not live in Washington, get up in the morning to cut social security checks, maintain aircraft carriers, treat veterans, guard the border, find Osama bin Laden, and yes, work hard to protect the president and make his policies look good. Many of them earn less than they would in the private sector and are deeply committed to serving the American people. Any effort to undercut them is irrational on its face.

TripSavvy's fact-checking
Washington, D.C. is one of the best places to travel on a budget. It's not that bars, restaurants, or flights are always cheap—it's that the city is teeming with free things to do, and several hundred hotels in the capital mean budget options abound. It all adds up to a great place to visit without spending a ton of money.
The iconic National Mall is lined with so many free attractions—including some of the country's best museums—that you can do more in DC on a tighter budget than you can in some other cities. You can marvel at the White House, Capitol Building, and Washington Monument without paying a dime. Rock Creek Park offers nearly 2,000 acres of natural beauty, and the Potomac River gives waterfront lovers an area to relax. Plus, DC is one of the best walking cities in the world.
We put together a list of the best budget-friendly DC hotels for a variety of travelers, from solo explorers to families with young children. All the hotels on this list will put you within walking distance of many of the best things to do in DC, from sporting events to Chinatown to museums and more, and all of them offer clean, comfortable, quality accommodations to stay without breaking the bank.

Best Overall : Hotel Hive
See Rates on Tripadvisor.com
Why We Chose It
Hotel Hive offers a hip, modern vibe with a fun atmosphere at a very affordable price.
Free high-speed Wi-Fi
Trendy neighborhood
Smallish rooms
Billed as a "microhotel," Hotel Hive is not for everyone at first glance. But if you're looking for fun, modernity, and quality, it's more than worth a visit—and it's easy on the wallet. The rooms are small but well-appointed, and the Foggy Bottom location puts guests at the center of a vibrant college neighborhood near both the waterfront and Downtown. Two bars—including one on the Hive's rooftop—make the spot a place to be seen; the beautiful exterior and tasteful interior design make it a place to see. The whole place has a clean, cool vibe that will appeal to those looking to travel in style.
Notable Amenities
On-site bars
Bluetooth music speakers
Best Location : Hampton Inn Washington-Downtown-Convention Center
With its proximity to diverse neighborhoods, including Chinatown, downtown, and the H Street Corridor, it's a great home base for exploring.
Prime location
Parking garage (paid)
An especially good option for business or leisure travel, the Hampton Inn Washington Downtown Convention Center sits at a cultural crossroads and near the city's convention center. (Fun fact: It's called the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, and the "Washington" has nothing to do with the city's name. It's named after the District's former mayor, who was the first African-American mayor of a major city in the United States). It's also within walking distance of Chinatown, Capital One Arena, museums, and several different Metro lines. The large, attractive facility gives you the reliability of a major franchise—though unfortunately onsite dining options are limited to the basic included breakfast.
Fitness center and indoor pool
Free high-speed WiFi
Best for Explorers : State Plaza Hotel
Comfort, price, and location are unbeatable, plus the kitchenettes help you save money on meals.
On-site bar and café
Close proximity to dozens of local attractions
The State Plaza is a perfect choice for those looking for a comfortable and affordable base of operations. Spacious rooms give you a place to unwind full meals can be prepared in the kitchenette. A Foggy Bottom location means proximity to the waterfront, downtown, and the George Washington University campus—the best of DC's free things to do. And with a bar on-site and a cafe, there are a few things to do right on the premises.
Best for Families : Hilton Garden Inn Washington DC Downtown
The top-notch location offers an excellent value.
Hilton reliability
Steps from DC's biggest attractions
The Hilton Garden Inn Washington DC Downtown gives travelers everything they need just steps from the White House and the National Mall. With its proximity to the Mall's free museums, guests can have a fulfilling yet affordable vacation. Customer service routinely gets positive reviews, and a pool, onsite restaurant, and room service gives you the option to stay in after a long day of exploring.
Indoor pool and fitness center
Bikes available for guest use
Best Pool : The Washington Plaza
The hotel offers a variety of services, from dining options to bars and a fitness center, plus a unique outdoor pool makes this a great choice during the summer.
On-site bar and restaurant
Notable outdoor pool
It's like someone dropped a private outdoor pool right in the middle of the city. Right at ground level, near Embassy Row, sits the Washington Plaza Pool, and it's reason enough to choose the hotel for your stay. But you'll also find a wide variety of room options, a full restaurant and bar, and an eye-catching facade from Marcus Lapidus—the same architect who designed Miami's famed Fontainebleau. While it's not the Plaza, this hotel is an often overlooked choice right in the heart of the city.
Outdoor pool and fitness center
Best for Singles : Moxy Washington, DC Downtown
This Marriott property gives you brand reliability with an energetic feel.
Onsite bar
The Moxy brand is one of Marriott's recent efforts to modernize the hotel experience and appeal to younger travelers, with large common areas, smaller rooms (some even have bunk beds), and funky decor. The bar and lounge areas serve as the hotel's focal points. Check-in? That's at the bar since there's no front desk—and socialization is the theme. Its location between downtown and Chinatown means the action is happening just outside the premises as well.
Best Boutique : The Georgetown House
A more cost-effective version of an Airbnb in a top D.C. locale, the price-to-location ratio is too good to pass up.
Charming building
Homey vibe
Housekeeping service only after a 3-day stay
Why not take some of the money you saved by booking this affordable inn and spend it shopping in the city's best retail neighborhood? Set on the C&O Canal in Georgetown, this 11-room inn is almost like booking an Airbnb. You can expect a private, homelike atmosphere, but be advised that this is not a full-service hotel; it's a comfortable place to sleep and bathe. But it's in an unbeatable location for a steal of a price.
Complimentary coffee and tea
The number of budget-friendly hotels in Washington, D.C.'s hottest areas is impressive and travelers don't need to sacrifice location for affordability. Every place on this list is in one of the best areas in DC: downtown, Foggy Bottom, Chinatown. They range from a tiny boutique to massive chains, but they all deliver the same value: quality hospitality in the center of the nation's capital, without hidden fees or a wallet-busting price.

How We Chose These Hotels
We evaluated nearly two dozen Washington. D.C. hotels, combed through reviews, and considered a number of elements before selecting the best accommodations in each category.

Le tunnel du Grand Brion est un tunnel ferroviaire situé sur la commune française de Vif, en Isère, ouvert en 1878.

Tunnel hélicoïdal long de 1 175 mètres et formant une courbe en S, il permet le passage de la ligne des Alpes à travers la montagne du Grand Brion, à quelque  d'altitude. Il donne son nom à un replis naturel situé sur les flancs occidentaux du Grand Brion appelé la gorge du Tunnel.

Situation ferroviaire
Le tunnel est situé au point kilométrique (PK) 156+178 de la ligne de Lyon-Perrache à Marseille-Saint-Charles (via Grenoble), entre les gares de Vif (au nord) et de Monestier-de-Clermont (au sud). En direction nord-sud, il est précédé par le viaduc du Crozet et suivi par le viaduc de la Merlière.

Historique

La planification du percement du Grand Brion est envisagée peu après les études par la compagnie PLM d'une nouvelle ligne ferroviaire coupant à travers les Alpes, la ligne des Alpes. La décision de création de cette ligne est actée en 1869, et le plan final de la ligne Grenoble - Pont-de-Claix - Vif par Saint-Georges-de-Commiers est fixé en 1873.

Après la construction de la gare de Vif, en 1874, c'est le tunnel du Grand Brion qui est creusé, dont le percement s'achève en 1877. Pour y arriver, la voie ferrée traverse le viaduc du Crozet, fait un large demi-tour en arc de cercle sur le plateau éponyme puis longe les coteaux ouest et nord du Grand Brion avant d'entrer par le portail nord du tunnel.

La ligne jusqu'à Vif est inaugurée le 11 décembre 1876, mais la mise en fonction du tunnel se fait le 29 juillet 1878, avec l'inauguration du deuxième tronçon jusqu'à Veynes.

Caractéristiques

Du fait de son étroitesse, le tunnel du Grand Brion est considéré comme mal aéré et fut longtemps le cauchemar des conducteurs de locomotives à vapeur (242 AT du PLM, 141E et 141F du PLM puis de la SNCF, 141R de la SNCF) qui devaient porter un masque pour pallier le manque d'oxygène. Aujourd'hui encore, une pancarte de signalisation ferroviaire à l'entrée nord du tunnel permet aux trains de rebrousser chemin s'il y a un problème.

Le tunnel du Grand Brion a un degré de pente de 25 %. C'est le tunnel le plus long de toute la ligne Grenoble-Veynes.

Other times volcanoes can slowly leak hot lava from vents. Regardless of how volcanoes release this hot molten material, it is a sign of new birth in the rock cycle. This liquid-like rock, called magma, is released. Once it is above ground, it is called lava, and eventually, it cools to become fire rock, or igneous rock.

Acts - An Introduction
The lesson on January 10, 2021 was an introduction to the new Acts study, focused on the when and why of books that were written by the Apostle Paul. This lesson explained the objectives of looking at Paul's letters and finding out when were they written relative to Acts? Also, if possible, we will put a secular date on the epistles and events encountered in the Acts. Is the declaration in Acts 28 in or out of "the Acts of the apostles? What importance can we associate with the timing of the mystery and the destruction of the temple? Does the Acts introduce a new ministry or continue and confirm what was previously given? Wayne provided us some resources to download and read for our preparation of this study. Wayne established our methodology which will be ask, search and see! We will answer the question was Acts a continuation or the beginning of a new dispensation? Wayne finally took us to the first chapter and addressed the former treaty which established the author of Luke and we looked at Luke 24:36-53 which tied into Acts 1:1-14 "Former treatise: A beginning" Then Acts 1:15-28:31 "Present treatise: A continuance" The scripture reading was from Acts 1:1-7 KJV
"1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, 2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen: 3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: 4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. 5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. 6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? 7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

Matawa's first steps will be to complete preliminary design drawings and obtain capital funding for the renovations.


"You cannot connect the dots by looking forward"
Have you ever lost your mobile phone in your life? I have lost twice and yes it is not a great position to be. But these two incidents had two different implications. When i lost my first phone it was a nokia phone (N71 to be exact) which was quite a smart phone at that time around 2007. Yes i wanted to find the phone but could not the story was over and life went on.
When should i give up something? So you should never give up something until you find something you really want. Yes... Until you find it.. :). We usually draw the give up line on what society believe, Not what we really believe. We often create boundaries on what society believes achievable. Until someone who really believe him or herself step in expand the limits. We never thought someone could fly until wright brothers flew, We never imagined a world speaking with someone thousand of miles away until Alexander Graham Bell invented the first practical telephone.
In the previous post i discussed about the importance of developing a most important gift a human has inside his brain.... the memory. In this world we have externalized most of the important stuff to external digital world. In a way it has made things evolving faster. We are gathering much more knowledge than earlier. Wait.. Is it knowledge or knowledge pointers? The most suitable word is knowledge pointers using which we can retrieve knowledge easily.
If you need any information you just type Google. Simple is n't it? So do we have to bother about memorizing anything this world? Is there a pay back for what you memorize? Can we rely on internet and only just learn how to search and can we be successful? I am sure most of the people have forgotten the importance of memorizing things in this information age. But the people who master memorizing things excel more often than people who do not.
Do you think learning math and science is something alien from outer universe ? Do you struggle to solve complex mathematics or science problems? If you keep on adding questions there will be a lot to add on. Because even i have some of those problems in my mind. I excelled in college and was able to get into the top engineering University in Sri Lanka. At present i am reading for my Masters Degree in Distributed computing in Europe which involve Science and Mathematics heavily.
When you run your map reduce applications you may have hiccups here and there and may need to have a look inside. If you need to remote debug rather going through logs and figuring out what went wrong following is the procedure. I am using Intellij Idea as the IDE but for other IDE's process is similar. 1) In Intellij Idea go to Run > Edit Configuration and then click on "

There are resources on installing Hadoop with "HomeBrew" which is the missing package manager in Mac ;). But i do not want to offload all the configuration burden to it as i need to learn this from top to bottom.


The GtkText and GtkEntry widgets have their own popup menus which are activated by the press of B3 (right mouse button). It is possible to create and display popup menus for other widgets but existing methods didn't allow for the direct augmentation of these widget specific menus. Today I completed the support for this functionality which I know is something that I'll use a lot. The code works but still might undergo some revision. At the moment menu items are only appended to the bottom of the list, but these could be prepended too. I'll look at this some other time. Here's the code snippets from my test application.

Courier Missions in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
The Courier missions are side-missions in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas which involve Carl Johnson delivering packages to various locations across the State of San Andreas. There are different businesses in each of the three cities. The Los Santos missions are for Roboi's Food Mart, the San Fierro missions are for Hippy Shopper, and the Las Venturas missions are for Burger Shot. After completing the courier missions, the businesses become assets.
2 Roboi's Food Mart
3 Hippy Shopper
4 Burger Shot
The mission is activated by getting on a specific two-wheel motorbike or bicycle parked outside any of the outlets. A short time limit is given to deliver a bag of white powder to certain designated places in the whole city around the business by throwing packages through coronas (by viewing sideways, as is when the player aims for a drive-by shooting). Once all the packages have been delivered, Carl must return to the outlet to collect a commission. The amount of money paid relates to the amount of packages left and the time taken. After a few seconds some more targets are offered and Carl must deliver more packages in the same manner. The number of destinations and the distances between them increases over the four missions.
The motorbike/bicycle remains parked outside the store and the player may run the mission endlessly to earn extra cash.
Oddly enough, hopping onto a bike to trigger the job within sight of the police still results in a Wanted Level star being added.
Roboi's Food Mart
Roboi's Food Mart in Commerce, Los Santos.
The Roboi's Food Mart for courier missions is located in Commerce, Los Santos, near Pershing Square and the Los Santos Conference Center. The missions are activated by hopping onto the BMX. The business generates $2,000 per day after completing the missions. The missions are available from the beginning of the game.
A detailed explanation of the mission is on here.
Hippy Shopper
Hippy Shopper in Queens, San Fierro.
The Hippy Shopper for the courier missions is located in Queens, San Fierro. The missions are activated by getting onto the Freeway. The business generates $2,000 per day after completing the missions. They become available after the mission The Green Sabre.
Burger Shot
Burger Shot in Redsands East, Las Venturas.
The Burger Shot for the courier missions is located in Redsands East. The missions are activated by getting onto the Faggio. The business generates $2,000 per day after completing the missions. Mission is available at the start of the game, but only with four stars.[1] Las Venturas unlocks after the mission Yay Ka-Boom-Boom.

BODEGA: 'Broken Equipment' review – iconic mannerisms integral to post-punk revival
2022, music, new music, post-punk
2022, Art, BODEGA, music, New York punk, Review
But there's no selfish way to love, 'Cause then there wouldn't be love: New York band parcel up Broken Equipment and deliver a warmer return to the revived post-punk scene
BODEGA were never one with labels. Be it genre or explicit categorisation, they consciously expanded their musical palettes careening away from the post-punk revival show they were lumped in with, using every other influence we have heard elsewhere.
Broken Equipment finally landed after 2018's debut Endless Scroll in March this year. So let's take a deep dive. Gone are the angry expressions, the flaccid ?! punctuation and in its place, is a band – like many who operate in the plethoras of punk symbolism – have just learned to live and adapt with all the problems that keep us grounded. Religion, work, technology. Encompassing sardonic witty one-liners, they reel you in with more harmonious and astute attention to detail.
"Millennials like us don't really have genre alliances. We have allegiances towards groups and songs."
Ben Hozie, BODEGA
Fairly safe in structure – although not entirely complacent, mind – wiry post-punk ladled bass-driven Doers throws punches at losing yourself in the black hole that is your phone and culture encouragement to endless working. It kicks off the album with the BODEGA we were used to on their debut. But certainly don't expect the same upkeep to be made throughout. The change in mentality brings about delicate homages to love with Pillar on the Bridge of You and heartbreak via After Jane when losing a loved one. One could argue that a change of mentality that is quite frankly, not exactly post-punk but as mentioned before, BODEGA are never one to be labelled to one state. Their influences of lightweight indie fluff to more hard-hitting hip hop undertones bring about a fully-fleshed album of swooning creativity of my my, they have been busy finding themselves.
While they embrace differences, they can't quite escape their New York-ism (the jury is still out if this is a word or not) and the rich history of punk that city has soaked up over the years. Statuette on the Console is a reincarnation of Rocket to Russia Ramones, if I've ever heard of one.
Not to mention the aforementioned of New York themselves with NYC (disambiguation) and How Can I Help Ya?
A rare meteoric rise from once-turned filmmakers, BODEGA is a fulfilment to the post-punk revival scene and has earned its spot. Not quite eye-candy indie or soft electronica but neither walking the straight-edged line of post-punk all the way either, this is new BODEGA. Worth a listen, don't ya think?


It is a natural substance in the body that helps helps skin and joints within the body retain collagen, increase moisture, and allow for flexibility and elasticity. The skin contains about half of all the Hyaluronic Acid found in the entire body. The primary way in which Hyaluronic Acid works is to reduce water loss. This is important given that as we age, our skin gradually loses the ability to retain moisture.
Skin aging is a process we all go through. Through daily environmental pollutants, UV light, along with simply getting older, our skin gradually loses its ability to retain moisture, and we begin to see fine lines and wrinkles.
Hyaluronic Acid helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, due to its hydrating properties. Many Bionura customers report that their skin feels thoroughly hydrated, their skin texture improved, and have seen a reduction in the bags beneath their eyes. It is especially successful when used as part of a complete anti-aging routine.
Hyaluronic acid is appropriate for all skin types. It is a natural gentle ingredient found in the body and has a natural calming effect on the skin. Hyaluronic Acid can help all skin types, including sensitive skin or acne-prone skin.
Bionura products include the natural plant-based form of Hyaluronic Acid. It is one of the key ingredients in several of our products.
Looking for an everyday moisturizer? The Hyaluron Ocean Mineral Creme is a lightweight natural moisturizer that is a great value. In addition to the Hyaluronic Acid, 92 + ocean minerals, organic aloe, and organic Jojoba work in tandem to moisturize dry, tired skin.
A night-time face lift? The Hyaluron Night Lift Creme is a wonderful mix of skin firming and moisturizing ingredients. Vitamin A,, Hyaluronic Acid, and CoQ10 work at a cellular level to regenerate young, healthy, firm skin.
A lightweight serum to apply anytime? The Hyaluron Serum is a gentle serum that holds moisture in like a glove.
Hyaluronic Acid is also found in our Vitamin C Serum, Retinol Serum, and Eye Cream.

Lauren Brown Press Releases
September 19, 2018 Lauren Brown
Asilomar Bio Rebrands as Sound Agriculture
EMERYVILLE, Calif., Sept. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Asilomar Bio, Inc., developer of products to help farmers grow more efficient, resilient and healthier crops, has announced it will change its name to Sound Agriculture Company.
The name Sound Agriculture reflects the Company's commitment to develop a new class of products backed by outstanding science and to responsibly advance sustainable agriculture. Though these values have always driven the core mission of the Company, the name now more closely aligns with the impact Sound Agriculture strives to have on the agricultural industry.
CEO Eric Davidson said the change emphasizes both the Company's history and its forward-looking focus as it prepares to launch products that enable crops to achieve their yield potential.
"The Sound name is a reference to the strong science that we consider our foundation. Also among the many definitions of sound is 'a connecting stretch between bodies of water'. Fitting, given our origins in plant water research and that we see our technologies serving as connections between crops and the environment."
Based on foundational research by co-founders Eric Davidson and Travis Bayer, products derived from the Company's unique molecular discovery platform increase yield by amplifying nutrient use efficiency, drought tolerance, plant growth, and stress resilience. Field tests over seven growing seasons in multiple crops show Sound technology's potential to reduce fertilizer requirements and minimize irrigation needs, while increasing harvest yields.
Located in Emeryville, California, Sound Agriculture is expanding its research and commercialization teams to build upon its significant progress in the discovery and development of groundbreaking science.


REMU Screening Buckets have a number of hydraulically powered spinning blades that allow different particle sizes (from 0-70mm) of screened material through the bucket. The spinning blades break up larger pieces of material until they are small enough to drop through. Throughout the process, the material is thoroughly homogenized.
Large items such as wood, large rocks, or garbage debris cannot pass through the REMU buckets, effectively preventing unwanted material from being backfilled, landfilled, etc.
At TR3 we utilize our REMU Screening Buckets for a variety of purposes. Whether the objective is to separate fine material from coarse material, sifting fine material with lumps in it, or mixing sand, clay, compost, sump material, or soil remediation amendments to achieve the desired mix-rate required. Every day, our customers share with us more potential business uses for REMU screens.

A large proportion of the gender wage gap is usually left unexplained. In this paper, we investigate whether the unexplained component is due to misspecification. Using a sample of recent UK graduates, we introduce variables on career expectations and character traits, variables that are typically not observed. The evidence indicates that women are more altruistic and less career-oriented than men. The main difference concerns career break expectations which explains 10% of the gender wage gap in our favoured model. By omitting attitudinal variables most studies are likely to over-estimate the unexplained component of the gender wage gap. Women with a more traditional view concerning childrearing are also found to have less intensive search behaviour. These results suggest that without a change in attitudes, the gender wage gap is likely to remain at its current level.

Spanish Grand Prix, Formula 1 racing schedule
Spanish Grand Prix had a sensational debut, with Nigel Mansell and Ayrton Senna's famous drag race on the straight before Mansell took the lead and rode to victory. Although, Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya hosted the first race in the 1991 (Spanish Touring Car Championship), the circuit was built as part of the development program of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. Today, we are still mesmerized by the excellent job of Mercedes F1 at the Portugal GP, but just a few days later new heroes will catch the eye.
Catch the eye
The Spanish Grand Prix has special feelings for two of the current А1 drivers. It's home race for Alpine driver Fernando Alonso and Scuderia Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz jr.
They say "home warms the soul." But that doesn't mean Carlos and Fernando can relax, on the contrary. On this race weekend, they have to do their best in front of their family, close friends. Furthermore, in Spain, they are treated like real heroes in a special way, which adds even more fervor to driving and the desire for new, cherished, if not even victories, but at least points.
Spanish Grand Prix racing schedule (local time)
Formula 1 First Practice Session 11:30 – 12:30
Formula 1 Second Practice Session
FIA Formula 3 First Race (22 Laps or 40 Mins) 10:35 – 11:20
Formula 1 Third Practice Session 12:00 – 13:00
Formula 1 Qualifying Session 15:00 – 16:00
FIA Formula 3 Second Race (22 Laps or 40 Mins) 16:45 – 17:30
FIA Formula 3 Third Race (22 Laps or 40 Mins) 12:05 – 12:50
Formula 1 Drivers' Presentation 13:10 – 13:50
* Note that this timetable is subject to amendments
Standing on the podium for Carlos Sainz is one of the points on the checklist for Sunday. Meanwhile, the main task of our checklist, which we will start on Friday, 7 May, is to turn on the TV for the Spanish Grand Prix.

AU salutes Nigeria on terrorism war
Smail Chergui,
The 28th African Union Summit has commended Nigeria's role in the fight against terrorism in West Africa and the continent as a whole.
Smail Chergui, who was re-elected as AU Commissioner for Peace and Security, made the commendation in Addis Ababa and said that Nigeria was the only country that had given the biggest support to the fight against insurgence in Africa.
Chergui, appealed for international assistance to enable Nigeria and other countries affected by terrorism to adjust accordingly in fighting the spread of the terror menace.
He also said that AU had approved a Special Fund to combat terrorism, with a renewed focus on eradicating the scourge of terror attacks by Boko Haram, Al Shabaab and Lord's Resistance Army (LRA).
The Commissioner said the Summit approved the new Special Fund, with a focus on handling the radicalization of the youth.
"The report on the creation of the Special Fund has been adopted. We are going to start working on how to establish and administer the Fund.
"A ministerial meeting of the African ministers in charge of justice will be held in April to start working on its modalities of operationalization," he said.
He said the fight against terrorism has been on the agenda of the Summit for the past few years.
He said the Summit had dedicated its discussions to the relations between the AU and the UN in handling the peace and security issues affecting the continent.
He said that the Summit approved a new round of political mediation in South Sudan and asked its chief political mediators to engage with President Salva Kiir's government to re-launch the peace talks.
Chergui said a task force formed by the AU to fight the LRA was successful in the arrest of senior commanders of the group.
"We have made enormous progress in arresting commanders of LRA. The next form of action would be mapped out soon.
"On Libya, the AU Summit appealed to the government there to reassess its presidential council and engage in a process of reconstituting it with a view to forming an inclusive government ," Chergui said. (NAN)

Town hall focuses on reducing stigmas for mental health, substance use disorder
By Mark Ambrogi on May 18, 2021 Hamilton County, Carmel Community, Fishers Community, Geist Community, Noblesville Community, Westfield Community
Words do matter. That was the message Ben Wilson, the clinical manager of addict services at Aspire Indiana Health, shared May 12 at a virtual town hall, which was presented by the Hamilton County Health Dept. as part of Mental Health Awareness Month in May.
The theme was "Changing the Language: Reducing Stigma Among People with Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders." Wilson said everyone can play a part in reducing stigma and discrimination by changing the way they talk about it.
Wilson said discrimination against people with addictions and other mental health conditions takes different forms, including in health care coverage, employment and the criminal justice system.
"People experiencing these stigmatized conditions of substance abuse and mental health conditions often face rejection, even bullying and discrimination," Wilson sad. "They often internalize the stigma, which damages their hope for recovery."
As an example, Wilson described how an emergency room physician said he wasn't giving Wilson what he wanted when he sought treatment.
"He assumed I was drug seeking and that I wanted an IV of morphine," Wilson said. "That experience was very disheartening and created a feeling of hopelessness. If the physician won't help me, then who is going to help me? Many people don't seek treatment out of fear of being judged or being discriminated against. Some who do seek treatment are treated differently by other health care providers. As a result, they often drop out of treatment earlier than those with other conditions.
"Their conditions worsen, and all too often, people take their own lives."
Wilson said changing the language can help.
"Words like 'drug abuser' and 'schizophrenic,' those types of words can evoke automatic negative thoughts and perpetuate stigmas," he said.
Wilson said he used to refer to himself as a recovering addict and alcoholic.
"Those terms, even in the rooms of self-help meetings, those are terms of endearment," Wilson said. "So, they aren't always stigmatizing words but evoke negative thoughts. I've since recognized from being involved with the research that these types of words and phrases do often perpetuate stigmas, and people when they hear them, do have automatic negative thoughts."
As a result, Wilson no longer describes himself as a recovering addict.
"I now say, 'My name is Ben, I'm a person in long-term recovery,'" he said.
Wilson said "person-first language" suggests that the person has a problem that can be addressed.
"So, we can say a person with alcohol abuse disorder rather than alcoholic," Wilson said. "Instead of using the phrase committed suicide, we could say died by suicide."
Wilson said the phrase 'dirty' often is used for urine drug screens.
"That type of language promotes stigmas, so instead of saying the urine screen is dirty, we want to say it was a positive urine drug screen for opioids or positive for alcohol," he said.
Wilson said instead of saying someone is clean, it would be better to use sober.
"I'm at fault for using of all these things, but I'm working on changing the language I use as well," he said.
Wilson said he never assumes that people who use stigmatizing words do it intentionally.
"Just because someone says drug abuser or a urine screen is dirty doesn't mean they have any intention of perpetuating stigmas," Wilson said. "The best thing we can do is offer alternatives or suggestions."

America's greatness is defined as how it overcame its disenfranchisement of others whether it was Blacks, women, Native Americans, factory workers or LGBTs. I should only need to point to the May 35 reference by Chinese folks. The government expunged all search and history references to the Tiannamen Square rebellion from textbooks and their internet, even the search for June 4, the day it happened. May 35 searches are used to discover the team history. The question is this what we want in America?
My elementary and high school history books do not even mention several massacres that happened in the Philippines at the end of the 19th century as American colonists were putting down Philippine rebellion . American colonization of the Philippines is mentioned in one sentence in my HS US history book. Maybe historians have seen fit to rewrite US history because the US is supposed to be the bastion of freedom and liberty…. Americans didn't go around colonizing other countries.
When we as a country cannot acknowledge, document and improve on our failures as aggressively as we do with our accomplishments, we are doomed to repeating those same failures, making us no better than any other country. In that respect, we are no longer supposedly "exceptional".

040     * <p/>
041     * TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory allows you exercise full control over the
042     * HTTPS server certificates you are going to trust.  Instead of relying
043     * on the Certificate Authorities already present in "jre/lib/security/cacerts",
044     * TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory only trusts the public certificates you provide
045     * to its constructor.
046     * </p>
047     * <p/>
048     * TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory can be used to create SSL {@link Socket}s
049     * that accepts self-signed certificates.  Unlike EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory,
050     * TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory can be used in production.  This is because
051     * it forces you to pre-install the self-signed certificate you are going to
052     * trust locally.
053     * <p/>
054     * TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory can parse both Java Keystore Files (*.jks)
055     * and base64 PEM encoded public certificates (*.pem).
056     * </p>
057     * <p/>
058     * Example of using TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory
059     * <pre>
060     * 1.  First we must find the certificate we want to trust.  In this example
061     *     we'll use gmail.google.com's certificate.
062     * <p/>
063     *   openssl s_client -showcerts -connect gmail.google.com:443
064     * <p/>
065     * 2.  Cut & paste into a "cert.pem" any certificates you are interested in
066     *     trusting in accordance with your security policies.  In this example I'll
067     *     actually use the current "gmail.google.com" certificate (instead of the
068     *     Thawte CA certificate that signed the gmail certificate - that would be
069     *     too boring) - but it expires on June 7th, 2006, so this example won't be
070     *     useful for very long!
071     * <p/>
072     * Here's what my "cert.pem" file looks like:

092     * -----END CERTIFICATE-----
093     * <p/>
094     * 3.  Run "openssl x509" to analyze the certificate more deeply.  This helps
095     *     us answer questions like "Do we really want to trust it?  When does it
096     *     expire? What's the value of the CN (Common Name) field?".
097     * <p/>
098     *     "openssl x509" is also super cool, and will impress all your friends,
099     *     coworkers, family, and that cute girl at the starbucks.   :-)
100     * <p/>
101     *     If you dig through "man x509" you'll find this example.  Run it:
102     * <p/>
103     *    openssl x509 -in cert.pem -noout -text
104     * <p/>
105     * 4.  Rename "cert.pem" to "gmail.pem" so that step 5 works.
106     * <p/>
107     * 5.  Setup the TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory to trust "gmail.google.com"
108     *     for URLS of the form "https-gmail://" - but don't trust anything else
109     *     when using "https-gmail://":
110     * <p/>
111     *     TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory sf = new TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory( "/path/to/gmail.pem" );
112     *     Protocol trustHttps = new Protocol("https-gmail", sf, 443);
113     *     Protocol.registerProtocol("https-gmail", trustHttps);
114     * <p/>
115     *     HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
116     *     GetMethod httpget = new GetMethod("https-gmail://gmail.google.com/");
117     *     client.executeMethod(httpget);
118     * <p/>
119     * 6.  Notice that "https-gmail://" cannot connect to "www.wellsfargo.com" -
120     *     the server's certificate isn't trusted!  It would still work using
121     *     regular "https://" because Java would use the "jre/lib/security/cacerts"
122     *     file.
123     * <p/>
124     *     httpget = new GetMethod("https-gmail://www.wellsfargo.com/");
125     *     client.executeMethod(httpget);
126     * <p/>
127     * javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found
128     * <p/>
129     * <p/>
130     * 7.  Of course "https-gmail://" cannot connect to hosts where the CN field
131     *     in the certificate doesn't match the hostname.  The same is supposed to
132     *     be true of regular "https://", but HTTPClient is a bit lenient.
133     * <p/>
134     *     httpget = new GetMethod("https-gmail://gmail.com/");
135     *     client.executeMethod(httpget);

138     * <p/>
139     * <p/>
140     * 8.  You can use "*.jks" files instead of "*.pem" if you prefer.  Use the 2nd constructor
141     *     in that case to pass along the JKS password:
142     * <p/>
143     *   new TrustSSLProtocolSocketFactory( "/path/to/gmail.jks", "my_password".toCharArray() );
144     * <p/>
