Q: KODI Remote control using LIRC worked and now doesn't I have Ubuntu 16.04 and Kodi 15.02.  I have a Sony MCE RC6 type remote control, so I installed LIRC, configured for Windows Media remote control, tested it with IRW, and it worked.  KODI then worked wonderfully with full remote.  After I rebooted the PC, it didn't work!  I tested with IRW and got nothing.   I tried removing LIRC and re-installing and it still doesn't work.  I searched forums and tried about 6 different things, but it still doesn't work anymore.  It's driving me nuts.  What has gone wrong?  Can anyone make any suggestions please?

A: Here is my recent experience with Lubuntu 16.04.1 and an MCE RC6 remote.  Without even installing lirc, the remote behaves like a keyboard -- but not all of the keys on the remote work.
Using the remote with the application "Mythtv", most of the functions that I need worked without any changes (without installing lirc). But, using the regular keyboard, all of the functions are available (Mythtv can be controlled without a remote, just using the keyboard).  So, to make additional keys on the remote work (or customize remote key functions) I am using the package "ir-keytable".  This allows you to easily map keys on the remote to keyboard keys.
There are other approaches, but I was not able to make them work. For example, I was not able to get anywhere using lirc, or using udev to remap scancodes from the remote to keysyms. (On previous versions of linux, I did use lirc).

Canyon Animal Hospital was originally built in beautiful Laguna Canyon in Laguna Beach, CA during the early 1950's. It originally served as a mixed veterinary practice, treating both small and large animals. The animal hospital went through several owners in the years between 1950 through 1977. The practice was sold to Dr. Hamil in 1977 and has been remodeled extensively. Since 1977 it has grown from a 1 doctor hospital to a 3 doctor hospital, treating dogs, cats and pocket pets. Dr. Alaluf (Or Dr. "G") came in 2001 as Dr. Hamil's associate and became a full partner in 2007, then full owner in 2011.

PartyGaming On Verge of Settling With the US Department of Justice?
Published on December 16th, 2008 1:58 pm EST
PartyGaming turned in one of its strongest days ever as a publicly traded company on Tuesday, soaring over 27% to close the session at 176.50.
This was an eventful day for the company after word leaked that co-founder Anurag Dikshit was preparing to plead guilty to a charge related to "illegal online gambling".
Dikshit, who owns 27% of PartyGaming's shares, is reportedly going to fork over $300 million dollars to US authorities, and also runs the risk of spending some time behind bars. The Financial Times reported that Dikshit could conceivably spend up to two years behind bars, but that this is unlikely given that he voluntarily stepped forward and doesn't have any previous convictions.
PartyGaming shares really took off on Tuesday after the company released a statement, saying that it was still in negotiations with the US Department of Justice.
The company said that its own settlement has nothing to do with the settlement of Anurag Dikshit. PartyGaming also said that they expect their settlement with the DoJ to cost far less than $300 million dollars, and that a settlement was unlikely to include a criminal plea "on the part of the company or a director".
The stock soared on the "significantly less than $300 million dollars" statement, as many predicted that a settlement with the DoJ could cost PartyGaming as much as a billion dollars.
Other stocks that are currently in settlement negotiations with the US DoJ moved higher on the news as well. 888 Holdings did particularly well, trading up over 14% on the session.
Industry observers believe that a resolution of the sector's "legal situation" in the United States will lead to a wave of consolidation within the industry.

In Los Angeles' rarefied world of private schools, where tuitions are high, academics are tough and educational philosophy is taken seriously, the newest member of the tribe is getting the kind of breathless attention reserved for a music or film star. That may be because the founders of New Village Academy are themselves such stars: Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith. Entertainers have long flocked to private schools on the Westside and in the San Fernando Valley, where campuses ...

Symantec pledges smartphone support for Norton security/storage software
New version of Norton 360 security on its way giving users more options to get files stored in Symantec's online facilities
Ellen Messmer (Network World) 18 February, 2010 00:37
Symantec Wednesday will ship a new version of its Norton 360 security, online storage/backup product and announced free applications for mobile devices are on the way.
An Android smartphone app for Norton 360 is in beta now, and similar applications for the Apple iPad and iPhone are expected out shortly, according to Mimi Hoang, director of consumer products at Symantec. In fact, one of the main changes to this fourth version of Norton 360 is that it gives the user more options to get to files stored in Symantec's online facilities.
"Before, you had to use the client software but now you can access files and data from any Internet browser," Hoang says.
"We're moving forward on the question, 'How do you share and access data with friends and family?"'
America's 10 Most Wanted Botnets
With Version 4.0, there is now a hyperlink to Norton 360 backup that can be accessed via a Web browser with the same log-in and credentials the user has for use with the Norton 360 desktop software. The idea is to click the link to gain options for viewing or downloading files, with ways to share them.
Norton 360 also includes PC optimization tools and a "Smart Start-up Manager" intended to eliminate long boot time.
Version 4.0 was designed to enhance Web security by protecting users from phishing sites and signaling a site's legitimacy through color-coded indicators of red, green and yellow, through analysis. The software's "Quorum technology" can detect and block malicious files along with botnets and viruses. Symantec believes about 70% of malware today derives from malicious downloads and scripts, with the remainder originating in e-mail, instant messaging and social-engineering tricks.Norton 360 Version 4.0 lists at about $80, and $60 as an upgrade.

How communication innovation is a golden opportunity for Australian MSPs
The great business and technology trend of 2020 has been the shift to distributed working


It was Hippocrates, an ancient Greek philosopher and physician who created the field of medicine. The modern medical science is based on the ancient Greek medicine.
Ancient Greek medical knowledge forms the spine of the modern medicine. The Greeks believed Chiron, the centaur, invented medicine to heal himself when Hercules wounded him. Eventually, Chiron taught Asclepius the secret art of healing. The Greeks considered Asclepius as the god of medicine. They also believe Chiron had passed some knowledge of medicine to the war hero Achilles.
In ancient Greece, the art of healing was based on the religious beliefs and rituals. However, there are also historical evidences that show that the Greeks were curious to know the cause of a disease and how it could be cured. They followed a method of using scientific observation to figure out the causes of a disease.
They developed a logical system to analyze a disease. It was based on four humors or substance of the human body. The four humors were blood, yellow bile, black bile, and phlegm. The Greeks believed if the four humors were balanced, the person is healthy, and any unbalance would cause health problems.
They also believed that reducing the amount of blood would help to bring down the body temperature. The physicians would create a small cut on the arm of a patient or put leeches on the arm to drain blood. Hence, ancient Greek physicians were often called "leeches"
Hippocrates, the Greek philosopher is known as the father of modern medicine. He, along with the other Greek scholars, identified that diseases were not caused by a curses or magic, but due to the imbalance of the body humors. In 5th century BC, ancient medical schools were established at Cnidus and Kos. Historical evidence reveal these medical schools flourished well. The practitioners and students of these medical schools vowed "Corpus Hippocraticum", the oath written by Hippocrates.
Apart from Hippocrates, another major contributor was Aristotle. He made a comparative study of the anatomy of both animals and human beings. Herophilus was the first Greek physician to perform a dissection of a human body in public. Erasistratus studied the functions and the physiology of the brain, nerves, arteries, and veins.
By the beginning of 6th century BC, the ancient Greek demarcated medicine as a separate branch of study. Hippocrates wrote Hippocratic Corpus, and many scholars after him added more content to it. It is an ancient medical text that contains how a disease is diagnosed and how it can be cured.
"Hippocratic Oath" is taken by every new doctor-to-be by repeating the oath written by Hippocrates. The oath implies on the duties and responsibilities of a medical practitioner.
You can rightly say ancient Greek medical science is one of the remarkable achievements of the Greeks.

Iowa Business Leaders Nervous About Effects of Legislature's 'Bathroom Bill' Proposal on State's Image, Economy
Inyoung Choi, The Des Moines Register
When North Carolina lawmakers in 2016 adopted a law that barred transgender people from using bathrooms in public facilities that corresponded with their gender identification, the backlash against the state was swift.
Now, with a similar bill moving through the Iowa Legislature to impose restrictions on restroom use in the state's schools, some Iowa business leaders and event organizers are worried the Hawkeye state could face the same sort of repercussions.
In North Carolina, the state suffered damage to both its public image and economy. Major corporations abandoned plans to build or expand facilities in the state and issued statements of opposition. Top musical performers canceled concerts. The NAACP called for a boycott.
And the NCAA said it would stop holding its championship events in the basketball-loving state; the Atlantic Coast Conference likewise made plans to move its postseason basketball tournament; and the NBA threatened to relocate its 2019 All-Star game, scheduled for Charlotte.
A 2017 Associated Press analysis predicted the bill, which the U.S. Justice Department called discriminatory, could end up costing North Carolina more than $3.76 billion over 12 years. Ultimately, after that state's Republican governor lost reelection, lawmakers ended up reworking the law in a compromise with the new Democratic governor, removing the gender restriction in most cases.
Greg Edwards, president and CEO of Catch Des Moines, an organization that markets the metro as a tourism, convention and sports destination, said passage of the Iowa bill could be costly for the city.
"(There) are some organizations that would not even look at Des Moines to bring events here if we had such a law," Edwards said.
Andrea Woodard of the Greater Des Moines Partnership, the metro's chamber of commerce, said in a statement that cultivating "an environment that is welcoming for people of all backgrounds" is "critically important to our region's talent attraction and retention efforts."
"That is why we and other business organizations in Iowa and across the country have been, and continue to be, opposed to this type of legislation," said Woodard, the Partnership's senior vice president of government relations and public policy.
The leader of a statewide business group also expressed concern.
"As Iowa looks to grow the population and be an attractive place for workers and continue to expand businesses in the state, Iowa needs to be a welcoming and an inclusive place for all people," said Joe Murphy, executive director of Iowa Business Council. "(That's) going to help drive population, drive workforce, and drive business expansion in the state."
There is also a potential impact on Des Moines as a site for large-scale sports events. The city currently is slated to host the first and second rounds of the NCAA men's basketball tournament in 2023. It previously hosted the men's tournament in 2016 and 2019 and welcomed the NCAA wrestling championships in 2013.
The 2019 tournament generated $8 million in revenue in the city over four days, according to Catch Des Moines.
Chris Connolly, the general manager of the Iowa Events Center, site of the tournament play, noted that the Iowa Legislature previously has considered legislation aimed at restricting bathroom use. A 2018 bill died in committee. This is the first year the bill has gotten a subcommittee vote.
"This isn't the first time this has come up," Connolly said. "We've kind of just waited to see what would happen. On the legal side, I don't know everything about the bill. From what I've read, it's specific to elementary, secondary and nonpublic schools, so what's on the table right now as far as I can tell or see wouldn't affect us at Wells Fargo Arena or the convention center. Could that change by 2023? Certainly, it could.
"It's something we need to keep an eye on and see how it develops, but it's far from the point where we really need to look at it and make decisions," he said.
Drake University, the official host school of the 2023 Des Moines tournament site, declined through a spokesperson to comment on the bill.
Some other Iowa businesses and groups also stayed mum on the issue. Hy-Vee officals declined to comment. A Kum & Go spokesman told the Des Moines Register the company would send a statement, but none had been issued as of Friday evening. And JD Davis, vice president of public policy, at the Iowa Association of Business and Industry, said he hadn't had a chance to review the bill.
Mike Draper, the famously outspoken owner of the Des Moines-based RAYGUN T-shirt empire, wasn't shy about his opinion.
"How we have come through and still are in a global pandemic, near-financial collapse, and this is at the top of the priority list for Iowa's elected officials is beyond me," Draper said. "It is so closed-minded, backward-thinking, and unnecessary, that it makes the state look hostile to the modern world."
Edwards of Catch Des Moines, putting it more gently, said the measure runs counter to society's trend.
"We're always 'Iowa-nice' here," Edwards said. "That's the way the world is going. That's the way America is going right now."

B5074 Safety and Speed Review

B5074 Safety & Speed Review
In April 2016, after considerable ongoing lobbying by the Parish Council, Cheshire East Highways (CEH) undertook a route review of the B5074 between Reaseheath College and the County boundary before Darnhall.
Following the recent publication of the review, the Parish Council are continuing to lobby to ensure that the identified road improvements, especially those affecting Church Minshull, are implemented without unnecessary delay.
The objectives behind the review were to provide a consistent approach to understanding and assessing the performance of the route. The outputs aim to deliver solutions across key areas such as safety, congestion and public concerns.
Traffic data was examined to determine whether speed limits were in accordance with latest national guidance. Feedback was obtained through engagement with the appropriate Local Ward Members and Parish Councils to gain an understanding of the more localised perspective, which will be taken into consideration.

Q: How to construct binary search tree I'm currently learning binary search tree, if I insert these value into my tree:
13, 3, 4, 12, 14, 10, 5, 1, 8, 2, 7, 9, 11, 6, 18

Then my binary search tree would look like this:

If I add another number 15 to my tree:
13, 3, 4, 12, 14, 10, 5, 1, 8, 2, 7, 9, 11, 6, 18, 15

My question is whether this first one:
13
  \
   14
    \
     15
      \
       18

or second one:
13
  \
   14
     \
      18
      /
     15

is the correct way to insert 15 into above binary search tree?

A: The second output is the correct one if you are "usual" BST. However, if you are using balanced BSTs, then there is a possibility that it can lea to a rearrangement of the relative position of the nodes in the tree. I am pretty sure that the book (or reference) that you are following must have the explanation for such question. In general, no modification is made to the previous structure (i.e., the previous positions of the nodes )of a BST when a node is added. However, this can lead to "unbalanced" or "skewed" trees. This can lead to longer search times for a node. To remedy this problem, "balanced trees" such as red-black tree, avl trees etc. are used. In such trees, a modification to the tree structure is usually reuired when a node is added. Refer the following for more information:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search_tree?oldformat=true
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-balancing_binary_search_tree?oldformat=true

A: Both ways would work, but the first one would be inconsistent with the way that your current tree is built.
Specifically, look at the 4-12-10 section:
4
 \
 12
 /
10

The level at which the data appears in the tree is fixed at insertion, and does not change as more items get added. That's why the second approach is what you are looking for.

Q: How do I deal with pseudo forces in a rotating frame? Is the centrifugal force the sufficient pseudoforce if my frame of reference is rotating with the same angular velocity as another observed frame which is at a distance $d$ from my frame?

A: No, you also need the Coriolis force.
By the way, the motion of any other frame is irrelevant for determining the required inertial forces in your frame.

Following hazing investigation, Bison Chips suspended for two years
The University's all-male a capella group, the Bison Chips, was recently suspended for two years. The suspension comes after allegations of hazing were investigated and confirmed to be true by the University.
According to Dean of Students Amy Badal, the University received information suggesting members of the group were involved in hazing and other high-risk behavior. Through investigation, such conduct was confirmed.
The University outlines its policy on hazing in the University Student Handbook. Hazing is explicitly prohibited in the policy and is defined according to Pennsylvania law, by which it may constitute a misdemeanor crime.
The Bison Chips declined to comment for this article.

Falcon 9 Launch Postponed To January 14: Bad Weather Caused SpaceX To Push Back Launch Date
Ted Ranosa, Tech Times 08 January 2017, 09:01 pm
It looks like fans of SpaceX would have to wait a little longer to see the space company's first Falcon 9 rocket launch since August 2016.
SpaceX postponed a planned Jan. 9 liftoff due to bad weather. The company's launch partner, Iridium, tweeted on Sunday, Jan. 8, that they would have to push back the scheduled Falcon 9 launch to Jan. 14 because their California site is expected to experience heavy winds and rain over the next few days.
Before this, SpaceX had earlier planned to send its rocket into space on Jan. 9 after securing a license from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
First Falcon 9 Launch Since August 2016
The Jan. 14 event is supposed to be SpaceX's first Falcon 9 launch since August, when it successfully sent one into space carrying the Japanese-owned JCSAT-16 communications satellite.
The company had also lined up another liftoff in September but had to postpone its plans after the rocket it was meant to use suddenly exploded while being refueled for a pre-flight test at its Cape Canaveral launch site.
No person was injured during the explosion, but it ended up costing SpaceX its prized reusable rocket as well as the Israeli-owned Amos 6 communications satellite that it was scheduled to launch into orbit.
Space Communication, Ltd., the owner of the lost Amos 6, said it would be seeking $50 million for the destruction of its satellite, or at the very least another rocket launch from SpaceX, free of charge.
SpaceX has spent the past few months investigating the circumstances behind the Falcon 9 mishap. Its team examined nearly 3,000 video channels and telemetry data featuring the launch, and discovered that the explosion was caused by a failure in the rocket's liquid oxygen tank.
The space company said its team found "buckles" in the inner liners of composite overwrapped pressure vessels (COPVs), which were supposed to store the Falcon 9's liquid helium supply. Chilled liquid oxygen might have gotten trapped inside these COPVs, triggering the rocket's sudden explosion.
"Although buckles were not shown to burst a COPV on their own, investigators concluded that super-chilled liquid oxygen can pool in these buckles under the overwrap," SpaceX explained.
"When pressurized, oxygen pooled in this buckle can become trapped; in turn, breaking fibers or friction can ignite the oxygen in the overwrap, causing the COPV to fail."
The FAA announced on Friday that it has accepted the report regarding the Falcon 9 and Amos 6 explosion and has ended the investigation.
The agency added that it has also granted SpaceX's request for a license to send Iridium NEXT satellites into space from a launch site at the Vandenberg Air Force Base.
SpaceX's deal with Iridium involves sending 10 satellites into space as part of the communications company's NEXT missions.
The Falcon 9 launches will feature an attempt to safely land the reusable rockets on a drone ship in the Pacific following their journey into orbit.
SpaceX still has about 70 missions on its launch manifest for its government and commercial clients. These launches are valued at more than $10 billion.

Quintessentially haute-Positano in style and flavour
Riva Special offer:
Book one of Junior Suites or Suites with a minimum of 3 nights stay from June to September and enjoy the exclusive two-hour trip on the wooden speedboat Riva Aquarama with complimentary Italian Prosecco.
Subject to availability at the time of reservation. T&Cs apply.
Italy | Amalfi Coast
The only place to stay in Positano
Naples International airport - 1 hour 30 mins by car. You can travel by hydrofoil in the summer months, which departs from Naples, Sorrento, Capri, Amalfi and Salerno
Le Sirenuse's own boat, the magnificent Sant' Antonio, takes up to 12 people for complimentary daily excursions along the coast from June to September
The views and the feeling of being in a cherished, aristocratic family home
Le Sirenuse holds prime position on the steep incline of one of the world's most peachy coastal towns: Positano on Italy's Amalfi Coast
With sparkling sea views, fabulous Michelin-starred cuisine and beautiful suites, Le Sirenuse is the perfect luxury 5-star hotel to stay in, while you enjoy all the rich pickings from this staggeringly scenic coastline.
For many this iconoclastic luxury hotel, is simply and luxuriantly synonymous with Positano. It holds true everything princely about this sparkling Amalfi coastal hotspot, and its fabulous refurbishment is testament to the ongoing passion of its aristocratic owners, the Sersale family.
John Steinbeck, who visited in 1953, wrote 'Positano bites deep. It's a dream place that isn't quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you are gone.' We know exactly what he means and there is a similar feel to Le Sirenuse, our absolute favourite Positano hotel.
Passionate owners
The secret of Le Sirenuse lies in its passionate owners. It opened in 1951 when 4 Neopolitan siblings converted their summer home into the hotel. Marchesi Aldo, Paolo, Anna and Franco Sersale wanted to create a luxury hotel with the intimate, sophisticated feel of a cultured private home. We can only say that they and their children and grand children have succeeded, running what feels like a cherished family enterprise that includes the hotel, the Emporio Sirenuse boutique across the road and a line of fragrances and skin care.
Le Sirenuse offers cosseting comfort, exemplary 5-star service and gorgeous rooms, especially the junior suites with their breathtaking sea views over the azure sea to the archipelago of 3 little islands, known as 'Le Sirenuse', after which the hotel is named. Many suites have private terraces or a balcony, vaulted ceilings and hand-made floor tiles. The overall effect is uniquely Positano and somewhere that will make a lasting impression on every guest.
Michelin-starred with a bar under the stars
A bellini on the terrace followed by dinner in the Michelin-starred La Sponda restaurant makes every day here feel like a celebration. Gennaro Russi's cuisine is based on Southern Italy's freshest ingredients but with a modern Mediterranean twist. In 2017, at the age of thirty, he became the youngest Michelin-starred chef on the Amalfi Coast and during January 2018 was invited back to the Ritz in Paris, to cook as its guest chef.
Franco's Bar was converted from the world's most scenic car park into a stunning al fresco bar named after Antonio Sersale's father in 2015, bringing together stunning views with specially commissioned artworks and furniture, including a striking yellow fountain by Guiseppe Ducrot, and, of course, outstanding cocktails.
Like many 'Sirenusers' we can't wait to visit again this year, but availability is always tight, so don't leave it too late!

There is little doubt that low carbohydrate meal plans do cut cholesterol, blood pressure and weight. The problem is that the victim feels famished and can't keep to it; enter the high fat part of the program.
The major concerns are that any meal plan very high in animal fat and protein is going to lead to an increased risk of cancer. The Netherlands has the highest rate of breast CA in the world and, research in that country, fingers dairy, beef and pork; and post menopausal hormone replacement.
Patrick Holford points to colorectal cancer on a high animal protein diet, but in fact the research also implicates the prostate and breast and presumably all metastatic disease.
With more people dying from the ravages of obesity than starvation, any diet that enables folk to follow in William Banting's footsteps, must be seriously considered. Interestingly, advocated by the eminent Dr Harvey, the undertaker lost a vast amount of weight on the very low carbohydrate, together with high fat plan.
We cannot, nor should, dismiss Professor Tim Noakes' Banting diet out of hand because of these concerns.
Are there other, better ways of banting?
Slow food, made fast, is our motto, and eggs Florentine fits the bill perfectly. Not many housewives have the time to dedicate to the proliferation of fancy food menus today; fry half an onion and garlic, add the spinach and then poach an egg or two. Even the lazy housewife can rustle up eggs Florentine in less than ten minutes; it's a perfect fit for the Banting diet modified which allows some low GI carbs.
Our eight colors eggs Florentine is without equal and an impressive and simple part of the modified Banting diet. Add to the benefits of significant, simple weight loss, the proven 35% lower all cause of death from enjoying many phytochemical foods and you have a winner.
Add to that the rich supply of many of the B vitamins including choline that is seriously deficient in the average Western diet, in eggs Florentine and you'll understand why we rave about it.
A deficiency of folate and choline in the diet incidentally leads directly to serious birth defects.
High folate levels - use the site search function.
Banting diet modified avoids your high GI starches but not the healthy carbohydrate.
Our particular concerns are as follows.
Tim Noakes bans legumes; that means a high animal protein diet.
High animal fat means an increased risk of breast, prostate and colorectal cancer; and presumably others too.
Limiting low GI carbohydrate as in many fruits and healthy vegetables like sweet potatoes makes no sense in the overall picture of sparkling good health.
Okay, if you are obese, by all means go on this extremely low starch diet, but is there a more sensible way to do this than pack in the pork fat and cream, and ban otherwise very healthy, essential foods?
The key to the modified Banting diet is to gain all the benefits of a very low carbohydrate diet without the disadvantages. It's true that high GI starches are the bain of our obese platters; dabble in white rice, bread rolls and potatoes and highly refined bagels and cookies daily and you will without a doubt get fat.
But to cut out the low GI starches in apples, garbanzo beans and one hundred percent whole wheat bread makes no sense at all.
It's vital if you are eating this high animal protein diet that you have ample B vitamins, otherwise the build up of homocysteine is inevitable; that means heart disease, strokes and a host of other serious illnesses.
So plenty of greens for pyridoxine and folate, and eggs for vitamin B12, is absolutely vital; and those foods rich in magnesium and zinc; enter Popeye food.
This is a chiropractic site; yes, it is about weight loss because of the arthritis in knees, but even more about the right foods that give us healthy cartilage in our spines too.
There are a huge number of legumes that you can use to increase your protein without having to pig out on bacon, steak and hamburgers. Yes, they do have some carbohydrate, but they have a low glycemic index; better still add fat, but why must it be butter, cream and pork crackling?
Simply add olive oil to your hummus and a side dish of guacamoli with your Boston baked beans; use the healthy monounsaturates, rather than the cholesterol rich animal fats to increase the energy dense part of the diet that keeps you from being constantly famished.
Half a dozen spinach plants in a corner of the flower garden is so easy; they grow like weeds. How to grow spinach is not just for the health nut. Three minutes to loosen the sod, ten seconds to open the packet and in another moment spread a few seeds and cover them. What could be easier?
Keep newly planted seeds damp until they've germinated.
How to grow spinach - use the site search function.
Here are a few suggestions of typical meals that fulfill these criteria.
Breakfast should start with a fruit; the typical banting diet recommends berries, and that's great, but they are generally only available in season for a short period in the spring.
At Banting diet modified we recommend eggs Florentine, without the toast if your glycemic index is over 30. As always try to locate 100% wholemeal loaf; often not easy to find. You may have to bake it yourself. We do, see our low GI bread recipe; it takes only five minutes of mixing the dough.
Then get into your apples and whatever else takes your fancy. In moderation, because they are indeed high in carbohydrate, but most fruit is low GI. Cut the phytosterols in fruit out at your overall peril.
Then eggs Florentine is absolutely fantastic; high in B12 from the egg, and B6 and 9 from the spinach. If your weight is fine, on a slice of low GI bread; butter is back, so absolutely avoid margarine; hydrogenated fats are deadly.
Remember, research shows that after a year, 95 percent of folk have lost no weight, and many have put on, after going on a diet. Think before starting a new regime; is this sustainable?
We think you'll find the Banting diet modified easy to follow, and not difficult to stick too. But you will have to discipline and retrain that tongue so accustomed to colas with artificial sweeteners and refined carbohydrates like sugar and white flour.
A small glass of orange juice, preferably diluted with drinking water, is absolutely fine but there's a total ban on OJ; it's a high GI junk food. Squeeze your own citrus and make sure you include the pulp.
I personally am prediabetic and even home squeezed OJ gives me a surge of blood glucose, so I enjoy only small amounts for the huge benefits, and always take a short walk after the meal.
An orange juice press is a must for every family; learn the facts.
"The focus should be on whole foods rather than single macronutrients."
Lunch at Banting diet modified means, once again, a green salad that is so vital for those B vitamins that we've talked about, so essential for those who are banting. Add as many salads as you can find, and include a large scoop of hummus and avocado; they are high in the healthy fruit fats.
Corn on the cob is fine, but no canned sweet corn. There are ten colours in the this salad; can you count them? Avocados were out of season, otherwise you can be sure half an avo would be there.
This easy pesto recipe made with either fresh or frozen green peas is a great way to enjoy a non red meat protein dish; likewise this chickpea garbanzo bean dip; to be honest legumes are not rich in flavour which is why they always come with garlic, herbs and spices. Central to hummus is cumin. What is cumin, I hear you asking?
Phytochemical foods is what it's all about; the coloured, piquant foods that prevent cancer. It's no coincidence that garlic is loved by every chef.
It's not difficult to keep to the modified Banting diet.
One of these eggplant recipes will go wonderfully well your Banting diet modified lunch. They are relatively low in starch; less than 5 grams per cup.
These eggplant slugs, fortified with a garlic and jalapeno stuffing are dynamite; enjoy them on low GI bread.
Eggplant, also known as aubergine or brinjal in many parts of the world are an important part of our get off statins safely programme.
If your BMI is below 30, out of the danger zone, then start baking your own low GI bread; it's okay on the Banting diet modified. Above thirty, the aroma is likely to seduce you into eating too much.
Another concern of those banting may be the amount of carbohydrate in flax and sesame seeds, often used in wholesome bread recipes to lower the GI. They have almost as much carb as fat.
However, there's a difference; most of that carbohydrate is in the form of dietary fibre; less than 10% is in the form of sugars. Also these seeds, and wheat too are loaded with very healthy lignans; if we avoid them because of their starch the chances of getting cancer are much higher.
Are you so desperate to lose weight, that you're willing to face the increased risk of cancer on so many diets?
Five minutes work to assemble the ingredients for this honey loaf, and five hours baking, of course. Low GI bread really is a cinch; I bake my own at least four times a week.
Smear it with butter, olive oil, tahini or avocado, or quick hummus to lower the glycemic index; that's what gives you the blood sugar rush.
It's an essential part of the Banting diet modified, making it sustainable. It's unthinkable to go without bread for ever, unless you suffer from coeliac disease. And even then, our easy sourdough bread recipe is much easier on the tum because the bugs break down the offending proline amino acid that causes gluten intolerance.
To do it properly, you really need an electric flour mill to grind your own healthy flour. The problem is not with bread per se, but that sold in the local supermarket; there's a pernicious ruling that allows millers to remove 40% of the goodies from flour and still call it wholemeal. There's only one way around this anomaly; read more about it at whole wheat vs whole grain.
In short, because of the increased fat in the Banting diet modified to provide satiety and better glucose control, we also recommend you make sure these cholesterol lowering foods are daily on the menu.
Take an onion and make one of our delicious healthy soup recipes for dinner. The chickpea soup would be a good start, and even the vichyssoise is good, but it does have potato; and small scoop, and yes add a little cream. The fat lowers the glycemic index further. Mexican avocado soup is one of my favourites; high in the healthy monounsaturated fatty acids and low in carbohydrate it makes a perfect food if you're looking for variations of Banting diet modified.
And then perhaps a mutton stew; add a cup of chickpeas to every stew you make. Cooking chickpeas under pressure is the solution to the long period required for preparation.
Vegetable high in protein are one food group where we differ profoundly with the advocates of banting. The carbohydrate in them has a very low glycemic index, yet they are still banned; they are not fattening. Along with smart bran, research shows they promote a healthy colon.
Red meat, and certainly processed red meat, is strongly associated with colorectal cancer.
Find the subjects in bold using the site search function on your left.
It looks like a dog's breakfast but this mutton stew recipe is to die for. With all the added veggies and legumes it's very low GI.
Keep desserts for high and holy days; our homemade icecream is low in sugar and high in fat making it an option even on the Banting diet modified.
Vegans and vegetarians of course would find a diet high in animal protein and fat repugnant; banting for vegetarians also exists.
The key to losing weight is understanding the meaning of glycemic index; it's a measure of how fast a starch is turned into blood sugar. High GI foods cause an insulin rush, storing the carb as fat. Carbohydrate count chart and glycemic index is what it's all about. It's a subject at the heart of the modified Banting diet.
Our free weight loss programs incorporate these principles.
These low glycemic index butternut squash soup recipes for example are fine, especially if you add coconut cream.
Disallowed would be this roast vegetables recipe; roasting raises the glycemic index, and it's heavy on carbohydrate, yet still has a low glycemic index; it's certainly allowed, even encouraged on the Banting diet modified.
The success of the modified Banting diet in losing weight is based on two factors, one of which is about including only the healthy fats.
It's high in energy dense fats; that what keeps you from continuously being famished.
Avoiding the high glycemic index carbohydrates.
Fats are absolutely essential in our daily diet for a healthy brain and nerve transmission, but we have very real concerns about the emphasis on animal fat like in bacon, cream and high fat yoghurts.
Rather look to the humble olive and avocados for your healthy fats. And to fatty fish, freshly ground linseed and pecans nutrition for the omega-3 that is anti inflammatory; that's where the concerns of chiropractors lie; walnuts are king in this regard.
The regular Banting diet recommends bacon fat; I couldn't disagree more. It comes from processed meat, known to cause cancer; bacon is fine on high and holy days but eating it daily is seriously endangering your life.
What foods have trans fat ... the bad stuff.
More sources of anti inflammatory omega 3.
Humans have loved sweetening in their diets since time immemorial; mention of honey goes back to the ancients.
"Eat honey, my son, for it is good for you, and the drippings of the honeycomb are sweet to your taste."
Yet it is certainly not something that many people would have enjoyed on a daily basis. It's interesting that honeycomb is mentioned here, as even raw honey can be considered semi-processed.
The advent of cane sugar, and its ready supply is certainly associated with obesity and diabetes, though the latter existed right through human history.
Trying to get away from sugar and it's strong association with disease, instead we have turned to chemicals for sweetening. The Banting diet modified rejects this out of hand.
Oddly research reported in the journal Nature indicates that artificial sweetener side effects actually include weight gain. More important it's strongly associated with glucose intolerance and diabetes. We take saccharine and the like at our peril, and certainly shouldn't be kidding ourselves that it's healthier than using sugar in our tea and coffee.
The journal Obesity in a report entitled Persistent metabolic adaptation 6 years after "The Biggest Loser" competition reports that participants on an extreme weight loss programme had regained over two thirds of the weight lost, and some were even heavier than before they started.
The reason was that on an extreme diet the resting metabolic rate not only dropped dramatically, but continued dropping after they stopped dieting; they required less and less calories to keep their weight stable.
The message is clear; extreme weight loss programs just don't work. In fact, in my mind no diets work; the success of the Banting diet modified is because you are replacing high glycemic foods like white rice and refined bread with low GI alternatives that taste just as good; in fact, much better.

Kenya: Trade mark applications can be opposed on the basis of unregistered marks
The recent Kenyan High Court decision of Fibrelink Limited v Star Television Productions Limited is not always easy to follow. But it is a welcome judgment because it confirms that it is possible to oppose a trade mark application on the basis of a common law or unregistered trade mark. This is important because courts in another African country, Zambia, have taken a different view on this.
The facts in the Kenyan case were that Fibrelink applied to register the trade mark Star Plus in class 38 for telecommunications services, and Star Television opposed this application on the basis of earlier use of this trade mark, seemingly for the same services (the judgment is not entirely clear on this). The judge held that Section 14 of the Kenyan Trade Marks Act allows for such an opposition. This section reads as follows:
'No person shall register as a trade mark or part of a trade mark any matter the use of which would, by reason of its being likely to deceive or cause confusion or otherwise, be disentitled to protection in a court of justice, or would be contrary to law or morality, or any scandalous design.'
In our view this decision is correct. What worries us slightly, however, is that this judgment might be interpreted as suggesting that the mere fact that an identical or very similar unregistered trade mark exists is sufficient, as long as there has been a modicum of use of the earlier trade mark. The court certainly accepted that the prior use had not been extensive in this case (there is mention of 10,000 subscribers), and certainly would not have qualified for protection under the well-known marks section. There are a number of statements in the judgment that are a bit unclear; here are two examples:
'In my understanding, when a trade mark was so identical or similar to another one, which was already in use, the possibility of deceit or confusion would be a reality.'
'It is not the extent to which the mark had penetrated the market which would determine whether or not the mark could be confused with another mark which was identical or similar with the respondent's mark... the similarity of trade marks is what can lead to deception or confusion or both.'
A reasonable interpretation of Section 14 is that it deals with a passing off scenario, in other words, one where there is an unregistered trade mark that has been used extensively and acquired a reputation, and an application to register the same or a similar trade mark for goods or services that are sufficiently similar for confusion to arise. This does not necessarily come across in the judgment.

I cleaned out a closet today. Hardly earth-shattering news, but boy, it needed it. I put away clothes that I won't need to wear again until next October or November (I hope). Bundled up some articles for charity that I've outgrown in more ways than one, and saved others with the hope that maybe, just maybe, I'll fit into them again someday. Found a few items I'd forgotten I even owned.
Then I sorted through things I'd simply thrown onto the closet floor over the last year, out of sight, out of mind, and discovered that most of them could simply be thrown away completely.
Finally, I rehung the remaining garments according to category--business suits, dresses, "play" clothes--and organized my shoes. Stood back and admired the fruits of my labor. Took a moment to enjoy that fleeting, but pleasurable, sense of accomplishment that we so seldom get to experience in our busy lives.
It made me wonder why it is that we tend to put off the very things that would make us feel good about ourselves. It took me maybe an hour to straighten out a closet mess that was months in the making, with a result that will bring me satisfaction every time I open the door for months to come. Why had I put it off for so long?
The fact is, I don't really know. Despite all I've read about procrastination, and all I've written about overcoming it, I find myself facing it again and again, a foe that I can never quite defeat, at least not for long.
And maybe that's the point. The thing about procrastination, the challenge of it, is that it can never be conquered completely. Perhaps, like housework, we are meant to confront it on a regular basis, tackle it, and get past it. At first, this might seem like a daunting, discouraging reality. The upside is, we get to experience that feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment when we overcome it, not just once, but over and over again.
The same holds true every time we finish the first draft of an article, story, chapter, or whatever. Whenever we jump the hurdle of the blank screen or page and let our thoughts, feelings, observations and discoveries take shape in the form of written words, it's like diving into that messy closet. Sometimes, we find gems and hidden truths that we never even knew we possessed. Other times, we may need to file a piece of writing away until the season for it is right, or in the hope that maybe, just maybe, we'll be better able to finish it another day. Some writing we may choose to give away freely, to Web sites, ezines and print publications thirsting for content; still other writing attempts may justifiably wind up in the wastepaper basket, beyond salvaging.
Eventually, though, with your persistence, some order will emerge from the chaos, and you will have something to show for your efforts. When that happens, resist the temptation to move on to your next project until you have taken some time to celebrate the completion of *this* one. Stand back, and revel in the wonderful sensations that accompany having completed a piece of work. The memory of how marvelous it feels to finish a piece of work may turn out to be just the motivation you need to tackle your next "closet."

I see references online saying that you can force PlantUML to use its pure Java Graphviz implementation by putting in !pragma graphviz_dot jdot at the start of your markup, but it doesn't look like this is being parsed correctly anymore?
When I use the following code to render a graph, I get back an image complaining about a syntax error (using version 1.2019.3).
+ " PlantUML -> Dot [label=use];\n"
If I remove the pragma, I get back an image saying that there's an issue with the dot/graphviz installation (I don't have a native one installed). How do I force plantuml to use jdot to generate my graph?
We did not fully port dot/graphviz to java.
We only port the part that we use to generate PlantUML diagrams.

Q: Iterating FindRoot to solve a differential equation I am new to Mathematica style programming, better at traditional programming.  I would like to know if I can create a table of results using FindRoot, where the solution from the current FindRoot call becomes the start point for the next FindRoot call.  I would like to create a For loop with a set number of iterations.
Update
In the comment section someone asked what I was trying to achieve with an iterated FindRoot.  What I am trying to solve is the following differential equation using numerical methods:
NDSolve[{Exp[y'[x]] + Exp[-y[x]] == 1, y[0] == 1}, y, {x, 0, 5}]

Mathematica does not like this equation, and gives me the error:

NDSolve::ndnum: Encountered non-numerical value for a derivative at x == 0.

I have not seen a differential equation like this before, but thought it would be interesting to see what kind of numerical solution it would give. My way around this is to use FindRoot and a finite difference equation to find y[x].
FindRoot[Exp[(u1 - u0)/h] + Exp[-u0] == 1, {u1, u0}]

I start with u0 = 1, and h = 0.1.  I can then solve for u1.  I then use u1 as the  new u0 and use FindRoot again to find the next u1. That is where I need to iterate the FindRoot function.  If someone has a better idea I would appreciate it.  I will try the Nest function, and I saw another similar question on StackExchange elsewhere, and will try that solution too.

A: As I noted in an earlier comment, the ODE to be solved can be rewritten as
eq = y'[x] == Log[1 - Exp[-y[x]]]

Then,
s = First@NDSolve[{y'[x] == Log[1 - Exp[-y[x]]], y[0] == 1}, y, {x, 0, 5}];
Plot[Evaluate[ReIm[y[x] /. s]], {x, 0, 5}, AxesLabel -> {x, y}]

where Re[y] is blue, and Im[y] is tan.  Because the ODE is singular at y == 0, it is natural to ask whether the solution is valid beyond that point.
Plot[Evaluate[ReIm[(Exp[y'[x]] + Exp[-y[x]] - 1) /. s]], {x, 0, 5},
    AxesLabel -> {x, "eq"}]

shows that it is.

People Power: Simplifying IoT Deployment
IT-Infrastructure-magz-may2018-list
Humanizing the Internet of Things (IoT) isn't easy but one company has placed that goal at the center of everything it does.
People Power is an award-winning IoT software company that specializes in helping service providers deliver differentiated connected home offerings through their brands. They enable digital service providers, retail energy providers, telecoms companies, and manufacturers to rapidly connect, engage, deliver, and manage IoT devices and programs.
Its solutions are built with the future proofing and flexibility that IoT demands. By bringing Artificial Intelligence (AI) to IoT for recurring revenue in security, energy, and home care services, People Power solves real challenges for people every day.
A Committed Leader
Gene Wang is the CEO and Co-founder of People Power. He is committed to the development of meaningful, differentiated IoT solutions that address high-growth opportunities, and is leading the next wave of AI and IoT developments by revamping the technology behind smart home solutions.
Gene was previously the Chairman and CEO of Bitfone, an industry leader in mobile phone device management which was sold to Hewlett-Packard. He also served as CEO and Chairman at Photo Access, which was bought by Agilent in 2000. Gene led Computer Motion, a leading medical robotics firm, through a successful IPO in 1997 as its CEO.
As an Executive Vice President at Symantec, Gene managed four divisions and helped more than double annual sales. As VP and General Manager at Borland, he drove development and sales of C++ to more than a million users. Gene is also the co-founder of Gold Hill Computers, an Artificial Intelligence company.
Entering the Segment
Despite People Power's current domination of the segment, it was not initially a part of their business plan. The company just happened to recognize an untapped niche – helping service providers create recurring revenue streams by offering new value-added services to their existing customers.
This new B2B2C game plan has allowed People Power to diversify and expand through service providers rather than build a consumer brand from the ground up. The company now leverages the respected brand power of its customers to deliver white-label energy, security, and care to consumers.
Meeting Challenges Head-On
People Power started out trying to help solve consumer energy efficiency challenges through mobile solutions. They quickly realized that businesses and building managers also wanted to control energy costs and reduce their own carbon footprints. Meanwhile, utilities providers had to meet government mandates to include renewable energy sources and reduce demand through energy efficiency.
With its global workforce, the company was able to create value and deliver award-winning user experiences to people around the world. It designed and delivered breakthrough energy efficiency projects for clients from Cape Cod to Hawaii, while helping consumers better understand how to save energy at home.
People Power's next venture was smart home security with its free Presence app. Such innovative products and services resonated with both consumers and service providers but it was too early for widespread adoption as IoT was still a nascent technology. Today, the Presence app has been downloaded over 1.5 million times and sent more than 190 million video alerts.
People Power is also serving some of the world's largest service providers, including Origin Energy (Australia), Innogy (Germany), China Mobile (China) and tier-1 US-based retail energy providers with white-label connected home solutions.
They continue to innovate and help service providers quickly add energy, security, and care services to their product portfolios.
People Power's IoT system introduces machine learning and true intelligence into the connected home, something that no other company has yet been able to do. It enables service providers to offer unique microservices to consumers while shifting revenue models from hardware device sales to recurring service revenues, the Holy Grail business model for IoT initiatives.
People Power has recently entered into a commercial partnership with one of the largest utility providers in the United States to launch a total home and lifestyle security solution. Smart homes and security will meet to create smart security.
Another partnership and a U.S. government grant are allowing the company to delve deeper into utility and program management. It is also working with Stanford ChangeLabs to better understand consumer behavior and then design and deliver services that they truly need and want.
There are countless opportunities for IoT to completely revamp the smart home, energy, security, and care industries. The organization is completely focused on delivering highly-personalized, AI-powered solutions to automate desired outcomes.
People Power is working with service providers to help consumers monitor and reduce their energy consumption in ways they couldn't before. It is simplifying how people safeguard their homes with smart home security and helping the elderly live more independently.

Do312 presents the second annual Waldos Forever Fest! The fest will unfold in Andersonville, right outside Chicago's fabulous Dispensary33, providing a full day of music, education and fun for cannabis lovers – and anyone that loves a good time. From morning 'til night, we'll curate a cast of vendors, musicians, educators and – of course – a munchie food truck court.
Rewind to the early 1970s, a group of 'Waldos' – or four high schoolers who regularly hung out by a wall – from San Rafael, CA, embarked on a failed treasure hunt for an abandoned cannabis plant. The Waldos set their meeting time for the hunt at 4:20, a random time in the sunny afternoon, but little did they know they would forever change the culture of cannabis.
Why 4:20? 4:20 gave, at the time, the 'counter culture,' a secret code to discuss cannabis use. Today, the term is now well known and accepted, as cannabis use has surpassed a counter-culture and is accepted by many humans in the present day as a healing plant for many.
We pay tribute to the Waldos for the significant strides they made for the acceptance of cannabis with Waldos Forever Fest 2019!

Patrick Gmür (* 1961 in Luzern) ist ein Schweizer Architekt und Stadtplaner.

Werdegang
Patrick Gmür führte nach seinem Studium der Architektur an der ETH Zürich von 1989 bis 2009 ein eigenes Architekturbüro in Zürich, bis 1998 zusammen mit Regula Lüscher. Zwischen 1989 und 1991 war Gmür wissenschaftlicher Assistent von Karljosef Schattner an der ETH Zürich. Vom 1. September 2009 bis am 30. September 2016 war Gmür Direktor des Amts für Städtebau der Stadt Zürich. In dieser Funktion trug er die inhaltliche (Mit-)Verantwortung für die Entwicklung und Umsetzung des regionalen Raumordnungskonzepts (ROK), die Gesamtüberarbeitung des regionalen Richtplans, die Teilrevision der Bau- und Zonenordnung (BZO) und die Erstellung des kommunalen Richtplans.

Er gewann zahlreiche Architekturwettbewerbe und machte sich insbesondere mit Wohnungs- und Schulhausbauten im In- und Ausland einen Namen. Im Wohnungsbau und speziell zu den Grundrissen leistete er wesentliche Beiträge zur Zürcher Fachdiskussion.

Q: Jsf ui:repeat - method that populates the value is accessed even when submiting different form In my actual project I have noticed that the method that populates the ui:repeat tag, is being invoked when there is a post call, even though the ui:repeat is not part of the submitted form.
I have been trying to check againts the jsf documentation if that is the way it should work, with no success.
Is it supposed to work this way?
Thanks in advance.
Sample code:
When the button is clicked the method anotherBean.getCollection is being invoked:
<h:form id="firstForm">
    <h:commandButton action="#{someBean.someAction}"/>
</h:form>

<h:form id="secondForm">
    <ui:repeat var="product" value="#{anotherBean.populatCollection}" >
        <!-- CODE -->
    </ui:repeat>
</h:form>

A: In first place, a getter method shouldn't be populating the value at all. A getter method should, as its name says, just return the already-populated value.
You're not terribly clear on the concrete functional requirement, i.e. when exactly did you intend to populate the value, but one way would be moving the populating logic to the @PostConstruct of #{anotherBean}.
@ManagedBean
@ViewScoped
public class AnotherBean {

    private List<Something> getCollection; // Terrible variable name by the way.

    @PostConstruct
    public void init() {
        getCollection = populateItSomehow();
    }

    public List<Something> getGetCollection() {
        return getCollection; // See, just return the property, nothing more!
    }

}

*

*Why JSF calls getters multiple times

A: So, it looks like ui:repeat tag is invoking the methods assigned to its value argument when a post is done, no matter if the post is done from another form.
Thanks for the help.

«Роджер Плейс» () — спортивний комплекс у Едмонтоні, Альберта, відкритий у 2016 році. Місце проведення змагань з кількох видів спорту і домашня арена для команд Едмонтон Ойлерз (НХЛ) та Едмонтон Ойл-Кінгс, ЗХЛ.

Історія
Будівництво розпочалось у березні 2014. 13 липня 2015 район в якому розташована арена отримала офіційну назву Льодового району.

8 вересня 2016 арена офіційно відкрита.

24 вересня 2016 відбувся перший хокейний матч між місцевою коммандою «Едмонтон Ойл-Кінгс» та «Ред-Дір Ребелс».

12 жовтня 2016 «Едмонтон Ойлерз» провів свою першу гру, суперником у матчі були сусіди «Калгарі Флеймс». Перед грою відбулася церемонія відкриття сезону в якій брали участь колишні гравців «нафтовиків» Вейн Грецкі та Марк Мессьє. Перемогу в стартовій грі здобули господарі з рахунком 7–4. Вперше за останні 11 років по завршенні регулярного чемпіонату «Едмонтон Ойлерз» вийшов до плей-оф Кубка Стенлі. Перша гра плей-оф відбулась 12 квітня 2017 проти «Сан-Хосе Шаркс» завершилась перемогою останніх в овертаймі 3–2.Через два дні «Ойлерз» здобув свою першу перемогу в плей-оф здолавши «акул» 2–0.

Арена була однією із двох арен плей-оф Кубка Стенлі 2020 року під час пандемії COVID-19, яка приймала плей-оф Західної конференції.
